Conflicts won't exist in world if sense of belonging is strengthened: Bhagwat
Nagpur, Aug 11: RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on Tuesday said universal consciousness binds humanity, and if people realise this common connection and shape their behaviour accordingly, then the obstacles and crises won't exist in the world. Bhagwat performed puja at the famous Ganesh Tekdi temple in Nagpur, and inaugurated the temple's sanctum. Addressing a gathering on the temple's premises, the Sangh chief said universal consciousness pervades all. Lord Ganesh is a source of energy and represents the true meaning of organisation. Everybody is subtly aware of this sense of belonging and feels connected. What is true unity? We all are expressions of the same energy, Bhagwat said. If this universal consciousness is understood, the person's behaviour with himself, others and the world changes, he said. In common languages, we identify this feeling as a sense of belonging. If this feeling is consciously strengthened and one shapes his or her behaviour, then obstacles in our world won't exist. All the impediments and crises we see in the world today exist because we have forgotten the sense of belonging. And there is only one real remedy: Our personal, collective, national and international conduct should be based on that sense of belonging. Then obstacles will cease to exist, Bhagwat added.

Sustainability Matters and IndiAgri, supported by the Alliance for Change, Transformation & Innovation (ACTION), will convene the 3rd National Sustainable Agriculture Summit & Awards 2026 on August 7 at the India International Centre, New Delhi. Themed Krishi Samriddhi 2047: Building a Resilient & Self-Reliant Agriculture Ecosystem , the summit is structured across two tracks: Track 1 on Dairy, Nutrition, Fisheries & Livestock, and Track 2 on Crops, Inputs, Technology & Rural Value Chains. Dr. Ramdas Athawale, Union Minister of State for Social Justice & Empowerment, with fellow dignitaries at the 2nd Sustainable Agriculture Summit & Awards 2025 The theme draws on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision for value addition in India's dairy sector, spotlighted recently through India's four-medal debut at the Mundial do Queijo do Brasil 2026, and Union Cooperation Minister Amit Shah's cooperative renaissance, which is adding 75,000 new dairy cooperatives under White Revolution 2.0 and 6,000 new fisheries cooperatives under the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana. The Summit is the ninth in a series of national and regional dialogues Sustainability Matters and IndiAgri have convened since 2024: two previous national editions in Delhi and six regional consultations across states including Bhopal, Chandigarh, Nagpur, Patna, Baraut and Alwar. Together, these editions have brought together over 1,000 delegates and 120+ speakers, spanning policymakers, scientists, cooperative leaders, industry executives, startups and farmers, and have generated 190+ documented best practices and award-winning initiatives from across India's agricultural ecosystem. Each edition has fed grassroots insights into formal policy recommendations submitted to central and state governments, positioning the platform as a sustained channel between the field and the policy table rather than a one-off conference. " This platform exists because India's agricultural story cannot be told from one vantage point alone ," said Dr Navneet Anand, Executive Director, Sustainability Matters . " Krishi Samriddhi 2047 brings dairy, fisheries and livestock into the same conversation as crops, inputs, technology and rural markets, because the transformation we are chasing runs across all of these value chains, not through any one of them in isolation ." The 3rd edition is supported by partners across sectors, including Indian Railway Finance Corporation (a Navratna CPSE), Bihar State Milk Co-operative Federation Limited (COMFED), Odisha Cooperative Milk Producers' Federation Limited, SIRA Seeds, Hindustan Urvarak & Rasayan Limited (HURL), Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI), and Krishak Bharati Cooperative Limited (KRIBHCO). " Agriculture touches every one of us, whether we grow it, process it, fund it, regulate it, or simply eat it, and that shared stake is exactly why each of us carries a responsibility to be part of this discourse ," said Dr K C Ravi, Director General, Sustainable Agriculture Summit & Awards . " The Summit exists to make that participation possible, bringing policymakers, cooperatives, scientists, industry and farmers to the same table so solutions are shaped collectively rather than in silos , he added. India's dairy output has grown 70% in eleven years - from 146 to 239 million tonnes - even as livestock and fisheries expand at nearly 7% and 8-9% a year, among the fastest-growing segments of the rural economy. Track 1 builds on this momentum, examining cooperative-led growth across dairy, nutrition, fisheries and livestock. Track 2 turns to the crops-and-value-chain economy - seeds and sustainable inputs, regenerative farming, and the technology and market infrastructure connecting farms to consumers. The Summit is part of a continuing effort by Sustainability Matters and IndiAgri.in, India's leading digital platform for agricultural news and analysis, to drive sustained, solution-oriented conversations on the issues shaping Indian agriculture, from climate resilience to rural finance and cooperative governance, bringing diverse stakeholders into direct dialogue rather than parallel monologues. The day includes an inaugural session and track-wise knowledge sessions, culminating in the Sustainable Agriculture Awards 2026, recognising individuals, institutions, cooperatives, companies and government bodies across 44 categories for measurable contributions to India's agricultural ecosystem.

The Rise of Plotted Developments: How Tier-2 Cities Are Reshaping India's Real Estate Landscape
The Indian residential real estate market is undergoing a structural shift. While vertical housing has shaped the growth of metropolitan markets over the past two decades, organized plotted developments are emerging as an increasingly important segment of residential investment. Supported by the expansion of economic activity beyond major metros, sustained public infrastructure spending, and changing consumer preferences for lower-density living, Tier-2 cities are attracting a growing share of new plotted developments. Industry data suggests that more than half of recent residential plot launches have been concentrated in these markets, reflecting a gradual realignment of both developer strategy and buyer demand. Ashwinder R. Singh is Vice Chairman & Co-founder, BCD Group | BCD Royale 1. Macro-Economic Drivers Steering the Shift to Tier-2 Cities The rising cost of housing in Tier-1 cities, coupled with infrastructure constraints and limited land availability, has encouraged both developers and homebuyers to look toward emerging urban centres. At the same time, government investment in infrastructure is improving connectivity and supporting new economic clusters across India's secondary cities. The Fiscal Catalyst: Successive infrastructure-led capital expenditure programmes under the Union Budget, along with initiatives such as the Urban Challenge Fund, are improving the physical and economic foundations of regional growth. The revival of industrial clusters and continued investment in sectors such as semiconductors are expected to expand employment opportunities across several Tier-2 markets. The Infrastructure Effect: Transport infrastructure has historically influenced land values in emerging micro-markets. Industry studies indicate that locations around new expressways, airports and multimodal transport corridors often witness an increase in land values during the early stages of development, with further appreciation depending on project completion, economic activity and local demand conditions. 2. The Structural Anatomy of Plotted Developments Historically, buying land in India was fragmented, opaque, and fraught with litigation risks. The current boom is fundamentally different because it is defined by corporate, organized layouts rather than unorganized local syndicates. Attribute Legacy Land Buying (Unorganized) Modern Plotted Development (Branded) Regulatory Compliance High risk of title disputes, encroachment, and zoning violations. , clear legal titles, and digitized land records. Infrastructure Minimal or delayed access to basic electricity, water, and sewage lines. Plug-and-play internal infrastructure (wide blacktop roads, underground utilities, STP). Amenities Absolute absence of shared community spaces. Gated communities featuring clubs, landscaped parks, 24/7 security, and sports facilities. Monetization Speed Slow execution; heavily reliant on localized physical resale. Highly liquid; backed by institutional brand equity and rapid development timelines. 3. Consumer Preferences and the Appeal of Plotted Developments Demand for plotted developments reflects changing buyer priorities rather than a single investment consideration. Design Flexibility and Lower-Density Living: Many buyers increasingly value the ability to design homes that meet their own requirements while remaining within professionally planned communities offering shared infrastructure and amenities. Investment Potential: Compared with completed residential units, land often responds more directly to improvements in surrounding infrastructure. Since buyers are investing primarily in the underlying land rather than built-up inventory, plotted developments may offer attractive long-term appreciation opportunities, subject to local market conditions. Portfolio Diversification: For many buyers, particularly long-term investors, land within organized developments represents a tangible asset that can complement other financial investments while offering flexibility in the timing of construction. 4. Key High-Growth Tier-2 Hotspots A geographic analysis reveals specific regional clusters that have transformed into high-yield real estate powerhouses: A. The Northern & Western Logistics Corridors Lucknow & Indore : Evolving rapidly into premium housing hubs where over 20% of residential inventory is testing upscale luxury pricing. Driven by extensive metro expansions and the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor influence, Indore consistently leads in livability and self-construction home loan drawdowns. Surat & Jaipur : Fueled by massive infrastructural milestonessuch as the upcoming Ahmedabad-Mumbai High-Speed Rail (Bullet Train) sectionsSurat integrates industrial dominance with affordable horizontal options. Jaipur leverages tourism-driven wealth and rapid highway connectivity to the NCR to absorb high mid-income plotted supply. B. The Eastern & Southern Manufacturing Hubs Bhubaneswar & Cuttack : Emerging as the next major growth engines of Eastern India. Bhubaneswar enjoys a unique status as a master-planned IT and administrative capital, seeing unprecedented traction in structured plotted layouts. Coimbatore & Nagpur : Driven by robust manufacturing, thriving logistics hubs (e.g., MIHAN in Nagpur), and expanding IT corridors, residential absorption in these markets has maintained an impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR). Land prices across these key southern and central corridors are projected to see steep upward adjustments as demand outpaces organized supply. 5. Institutional Realignment and Developer Strategy The growing interest in plotted developments has encouraged several national developersincluding DLF, Godrej Properties, Prestige Group and M3Mto expand their presence in this segment. This reflects a broader shift in strategy as developers seek to diversify product offerings and participate in markets where infrastructure investment, urban expansion and housing demand are creating new opportunities. Institutional land acquisition trends suggest that a meaningful share of recently acquired land banks is being allocated to plotted and low-rise residential projects. Compared with large vertical developments, these projects may offer shorter development cycles, lower execution complexity and access to a wider base of end-users and investors. Key Industry Sources & References To ensure absolute credibility and institutional alignment, this data architecture is synthesized from the following primary analytical frameworks: Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) Real Estate Reports: For tracking institutional white-collar employment migration patterns across Tier-2 cities. Housing.com & PropTiger Research Insights: For historical land price data points, project absorption metrics, and the quantified 52% launch shift towards Tier-2 micro-markets. Union Budget (Capital Expenditure Data): Regarding the 12.2 lakh crore national infrastructure layout and multi-modal urban corridor connectivity timelines. Knight Frank India Wealth Reports: Evaluating the shifts in HNI/NRI portfolios toward tangible assets and low-density land banking during periods of global volatility. Conclusion & Outlook India's Tier-2 cities are expected to play an increasingly important role in the country's residential real estate landscape. As infrastructure improves and regional economic centres continue to expand, organized plotted developments are likely to remain an important component of future housing supply. For investors and end-users, these projects offer a combination of land ownership, planning standards and development-ready infrastructure that differs significantly from traditional land purchases. While outcomes will continue to vary across locations, the broader direction of the market suggests that plotted developments will remain an important area of opportunity within India's evolving residential sector.
