PM Modi launches two key farm schemes worth Rs 35,440 crore
NEW DELHI: Coinciding with the birth anniversary of Loknayak Jaiprakash Narayan, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday launched two major agricultural schemes with a cumulative outlay of Rs 35,440 crore. He also appealed to the farmers to increase production to meet domestic and global demand. Launching the schemes at Pusa campus, the Prime Minister noted that farmers have a critical role to play in realising the vision of a developed India (Viksit Bharat) by 2047. The two schemes, Rs 24,000-crore Pradhan Mantri Dhan Dhaanya Krishi Yojana (PM-DDKY) and a Rs 11,440-crore Mission for Aatmanirbharta in Pulses are aimed at changing the fate of millions of farmers. The PM-DDKY aims to transform 100 low-performing agricultural districts based on the Aspirational Districts Programme (ADP) model. The scheme will focus on enhancing crop productivity, promoting crop diversification, improving irrigation and storage facilities, and ensuring credit access in the selected districts. In view of the new pulses mission, PM Modi urged farmers to increase cultivation acreage by 35 lakh hectares by 2030 to boost production and achieve self-reliance, targeting to raise production from the current 252.38 lakh tonne to 350 lakh tonnes by 2030-31, thereby reducing import dependency. Meanwhile, attacking the previous Congress government, the Prime Minister accused it of neglecting the farm sector, saying the Opposition party lacked vision for the crucial sectors growth. He also highlighted various measures taken over the last 11 years for the overall development of the agriculture and allied sectors. In the interest of farmers, we have taken several reforms, he said. Outlining achievements made during his governments tenure, PM Modi said farm exports have doubled, foodgrain production has increased by 900 lakh tonnes, and fruits and vegetables production has risen by 640 lakh tonne. He also noted that the recent reduction in goods and services tax (GST) rates has benefited rural India and farmers the most, with prices of farm machinery like tractors coming down. The Prime Minister also inaugurated projects valued at over Rs 5,450 crore in agriculture, animal husbandry, fisheries and food processing sectors, while laying the foundation stone for additional projects worth around Rs 815 crore. These projects included Artificial Insemination Training Center at Bengaluru and in Jammu & Kashmir; Centre of Excellence at Amreli and Banas; Establishment of IVF Lab in Assam under Rashtriya Gokul Mission; Milk Powder Plants at Mehsana, Indore and Bhilwara; Fish Feed Plant under Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana at Tezpur, Assam; Infrastructure for Agro-processing Clusters, Integrated Cold Chain, and Value Addition Infrastructure, among others. PM Modi also laid the foundation stone for several projects, including Integrated Cold Chain and Value Addition Infrastructure (Irradiation) in Krishna, Andhra Pradesh; Trout Fisheries in Uttarakhand; Integrated Aqua Park in Nagaland; Smart and Integrated Fishing Harbour in Karaikal, Puducherry; and State-of-the-art Integrated Aquapark in Hirakud, Odisha, among others. Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying Minister Rajiv Ranjan Singh and Minister of State for Agriculture Bhagirath Choudhary were present during the event.

Man beaten to death in Rajasthan's Bhilwara on suspicion of cow smuggling, SIT formed
JAIPUR: A 32-year-old young man from Madhya Pradeshs Mandsaur district has allegedly been lynched in Rajasthans Bhilwara district on suspicion of cow smuggling. The victim, Sheru Susadia, died during treatment on September 19, three days after being brutally assaulted. His companion Mohsin managed to escape unhurt. According to an FIR filed by his family, Sheru had gone to the Lambiya cattle fair in Bhilwara to purchase cattle. While he was returning home along with a cousin on the night of September 16, a vehicle intercepted them around 3 am. Nearly 10 men allegedly dragged the two out of their vehicle, accusing them of cow slaughter. Despite Sherus explanation that the animals were legally bought domestic cattle, the attackers refused to believe him. The mob reportedly thrashed Sheru with sticks and looted Rs 36,000 that he was carrying. His cousin and companion on the trip, Mohsin, managed to flee, but Sheru was left critically injured. His cousin Manzoor also alleged that one of the accused called him from Sherus phone and demanded Rs 50,000 to spare his life. Sheru was admitted to a hospital in Bhilwara before being shifted to SMS Hospital in Jaipur due to a serious head injury. At the Jaipur hospital, Sheru ultimately succumbed to his injuries on September 19. Bhilwara police have so far arrested five of the nine accused Himanshu Sharma, Dharamraj Kumawat, Deepak Kumawat, Rahul Lohar, and Durgesh Bairwa. They have been booked under various sections of the Indian Penal Code for attempted murder and causing intentional injury. Police are also searching for four absconding accused Deva Gurjar, Kunal Malpura, Pradeep Rajpurohit and Nitesh Saini. Superintendent of Police Dharmendra Singh Yadav said a Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed to probe this case. The postmortem report and pathological findings are awaited. The exact cause of death will be determined only on the basis of these, he added. Sherus family, including his wife and two young children, denied allegations of cow smuggling, claiming he had purchased the cattle legally. The family has submitted a memorandum to the Superintendent of Police demanding strict action and compensation. Bhilwara Sadar Haji Mohammad Sharif also met the SP and urged swift punishment for the culprits. Former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, who visited Bhilwara on Monday, described the incident as a case of mob lynching. This is a very sad incident. What will happen to the family of a person when so many people surround and kill him? There should be an impartial investigation and the truth should come out, he said, calling for immediate police action to prevent recurrence of such attacks.

Muslim youth performs last rites of Hindu woman in Rajasthan's Bhilwara
JAIPUR: In a heartwarming display of communal harmony, the last rites of a 67-year-old Hindu woman, who was living alone, were performed by a Muslim youth in Rajasthan's Bhilwara. Shanti Devi, a resident of Jangi Chowk in Gandhi Nagar area of Bhilwara, had been unwell for some time and was undergoing treatment at the Mahatma Gandhi Hospital where she died on Sunday. She had been living alone since 2018 after the death of her three daughters and a son. With no one from her family present to shoulder the responsibility, 30-year-old Asgar Ali Khan, who grew up seeing Shanti Devi as a mother figure, came forward. She would love me like a mother since my childhood. She would ask me every day if I had eaten or how I was feeling. After she passed away, I felt like I had lost my mother again, he said with teary eyes. My parents passed away long ago, and Shanti Devi filled that void. Even during Covid, when she was unwell, I took care of her. On Sunday, after she passed away, I felt like I had lost my mother again, Khan said Supported by his neighbours and friends -- Ashfaq Qureshi, Abid Qureshi, Shakir Pathan, Firoz Qureshi, Inayat and Zabid, Khan arranged for the funeral, carried the bier on the shoulders, and performed the cremation according to Hindu rituals. Local Muslim women also broke down during the final procession, grieving for the woman they had seen as part of their colony. Relatives of Shanti Devi arrived later from Madhya Pradesh and joined the final journey. Khan said Shati Devi's ashes would be immersed at Triveni Sangam in Prayagraj or Matrikundia in Chittorgarh district, in keeping with her wishes.
