Made-in-Philippines new rice variety rolled out in east India to boost output
NEW DELHI: The Centre has introduced a new high-yielding paddy variety, developed from two varieties in the Philippines, to farmers in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Odisha, in an initiative to boost rice production. According to experts, the new variety, Malaviya Manila Sinchit Dhan-1 (MMSD), has the potential to transform rice cultivation in eastern India, where productivity has stagnated. After nearly 18 years of research, the drought-resistant and high-yielding MMSD variety was developed through a collaboration between the Banaras Hindu University (BHU) and the International Rice Research Institute in Manila. The productivity of this new variety surpasses that of conventional varieties. Additionally, it matures early and has a strong stem that allows it to withstand wind and drought conditions. The productivity of the variety is 55-64 quintals per hectare, double the average productivity in India. It increases production by 5-10% over normal varieties, Dr Shravan Kumar Singh, BHUs lead scientist who developed the variety said. Indias average rice production is nearly 29 quintals. Maturity time of the variety is 115-120 days against 135-150 of normal varieties, said Singh. Scientists used two IR-series rice varieties, indigenous to the Philippines, to develop MMSD. IR-8, famous variety of the IR series, was considered miracle rice in the 1970s. It helped increase global food production to counter hunger. According to the ICAR assessment, MMSD has an encouraging response in Bihar, UP and Odisha. Grain production was higher than 10% in these states compared to others. This early variety takes 115 days to ripen, and grain quality is better than the existing variety, which would help fetch higher prices to growers. During the de-husking, hulling, and milling process, head rice (whole rice) recovery percentage is 63.5%, whereas conventional rice gets more broken and reduces market value, said Singh.

No surplus water for other states, BBMB has biased approach: Punjab CM Mann at Niti Aayog meeting
CHANDIGARH: Taking part in the meeting of the 10th Governing Council of the Niti Aayog on Saturday, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann reiterated that Punjab has no surplus water for other states. Mann said that in the wake of the grim water situation in the state, the Yamuna-Sutlej Link (YSL) canal should be considered for construction instead of the Sutlej-Yamuna Link (SYL) canal. He said the Ravi, Beas and Sutlej rivers are already in deficit and water should be diverted from surplus to deficit basins. He said Punjab has repeatedly requested to be included in negotiations for the allocation of Yamuna waters as a pact for the Yamuna-Sutlej Link project was signed between the erstwhile Punjab and Uttar Pradesh on March 12, 1954 which entitled the erstwhile Punjab to two-thirds of the Yamuna waters. Mann said this agreement did not specify any particular area to be irrigated by Yamuna waters, adding that before the re-organization, the Yamuna river, like the Ravi and Beas, flowed through the erstwhile state of Punjab. However, he bemoaned that while apportioning the river waters between Punjab and Haryana, the Yamuna waters were not considered, whereas the waters of Ravi and Beas were duly taken into account. Citing a 1972 report by the Irrigation Commission, constituted by the Centre, Mann said it states that Punjab (post-1966, after its reorganization) falls within the Yamuna River Basin. Hence, if Haryana has a claim over the waters of the Ravi and Beas rivers, Punjab should also have an equal claim on the Yamuna waters, he insisted. Mann said these requests have been ignored, adding that due to non-construction of storage structures on the Yamuna river, the water is being wasted. He urged that Punjab's claim should be considered during the revision of this agreement, and the state should be given its due rights to Yamuna waters. Alleging that the Bhakra Beas Management Board (BBMB) has a biased approach, he said it was constituted under the provisions of the Punjab Reorganization Act, 1966, with the mandate to regulate the supply of water and power from the Bhakra, Nangal and Beas projects to the partner states of Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi and Chandigarh. He said that in the past, Punjab had been very liberal in sharing water with the partner states to meet their drinking water and other genuine requirements. Punjab was relying upon its groundwater reserves to meet its demand of water, particularly for the paddy crop. Won't allow our waters to be 'stolen,' will flag issue of BBMB reconstitution at Niti Aayog meeting: Punjab CM Mann Mann said that as a result, the groundwater level has depleted to a huge extent, so much so that 115 out of 153 blocks of the state (76.10 per cent) are overexploited, adding that this percentage is the highest amongst all the states in the country. He said that now with the upgraded canal structure, Punjab itself is running short of its water requirement and even its share in the river waters is not sufficient to meet this. Despite the state's repeated requests, he said the BBMB did not take any action to advise the other partner states to regulate the release of water to Haryana as a result of which it exhausted its share by March 30. Mann said that considering the request of the Haryana government on humanitarian grounds, the state decided to release 4000 cusecs of water out of Punjabs share to meet its drinking water requirement though Haryana has only a genuine demand of 1700 cusecs of water. However, Mann said the BBMB ignored the interests of Punjab and decided to release 8500 cusecs of water to Haryana despite serious objections raised by Punjab. He said the BBMB has taken this decision against the consent of Punjab, adding that it should be advised to act as per the spirit and provisions of the law. He alleged that officers of the state in the board are being marginalised and ignored, adding that the BBMB should adopt a transparent and neutral approach in its dealings with the two states. Mann also raised the issue of CISF deployment at the Bhakra and Nangal dams. He said the security of the dams had been the sole responsibility of the concerned states since they were constructed. He said the Ministry of Power has taken the decision to depute the CISF for the security of the dams, which is unnecessary as there was no need to disturb a well-established operational set-up and it further degrades the rights of Punjab with respect to these dams. In view of this, Mann urged that the decision to depute the CISF be revoked. Speaking on the desilting of the Harike head works, he said it is located at the confluence of the Sutlej and Beas rivers and is the main control point for supply of water to southwest Punjab and Rajasthan, besides controlling the flow into Pakistan. He said that over the years, the sedimentation of suspended silt or sand particles in the reservoir has drastically reduced its capacity and the backwater effect of the water required for optimal operation of canals is now being felt up to Kapurthala district, adding that large swaths of agricultural land along the Sutlej and Beas are becoming susceptible to flooding. Mann said there is an urgent need for carrying out desilting of the reservoir at a cost of around Rs 600 crore, adding that as the reservoir area has been declared a Ramsar Convention site and is of national importance, the Centre and Rajasthan must share the cost of the project.

Will Uttar Pradesh Get Its First-Ever Woman Police Chief?
LUCKNOW: Cracking a railway scam in 1993 proved costly to a CBI officer in Lucknows Hazratganj on Friday when an iron-tipped traditional arrow pierced his chest in broad daylight. The incident occurred in Lucknows one of the busiest localities at Nawal Kishore Road in Hazratganj where the CBI office is located. As per the eyewitness account, a man, who emerged from behind a tree, aimed an iron-tipped arrow on a wooden bow, and released directly at CBI ASI Virendra Singh, piercing his chest and knocking him to the ground. The accused, identified as Dinesh Murmu, 45, a former railway employee from Khadagpur, Munger district in Bihar, was immediately overpowered by onlookers and handed over to police. As per the sources, Murmu, now 65, nurtured a grudge against Singh who had led the probe into a 1993 CBI-led railway trap case owing to which Murmu had to lose his job three decades ago. Murmu, reportedly from a tribal community and worked as a junior employee in Indian Railways, returned to his village after his dismissal and led a life in hardships. Preliminary questioning suggested that he spent months preparing for the attack and may have even practised using the weapon in isolated forested areas. According to police, the attacker used a handmade wooden bow and a sharpened metal arrow, reportedly crafted specifically for the assault. He waited behind a tree near the CBI gate, timing the attack for maximum impact as Singh stood momentarily alone. Singh was rushed to Lucknows Civil Hospital with a five-centimetre wound to the left side of his chest. Chief Medical Superintendent Dr Rajesh Srivastava confirmed Singh was in a stable condition and under continuous observation. If the arrow struck just slightly to the right, it could have pierced a major artery or even the heart, he said. CBI officers are also reviewing whether Singh received any threats in recent months, or if there were signs of surveillance prior to the attack. Meanwhile, Murmu was booked for attempted murder and assault on a public servant, with further charges likely under the Arms Act and other relevant sections.
