Indian govt report in 2022 foresaw China rare earth export crisis

As Indian manufacturers are scrambling to deal with supply-chain disruptions caused by China's restrictive policies on the export of rare earth metals, in many of which it has a near monopoly, experts are pointing to an early warning of this — in a 2012 strategy paper prepared by a steering committee headed by the then mines secretary Vishwapati Trivedi after a similar crisis caused after Beijing restricted supplies of the critical materials that are needed in the auto, space and clean energy industries. Also Read: 'China deal done': US to lower tariffs to 55%, allow Chinese students for higher ed Back then, they added, India felt the heat of Chinese squeeze and on August 9, 2011, the government set up an 11-member steering committee to develop a strategy paper on status and availability of rare earth elements (REE) and energy critical elements (ECE). The committee was chaired by the mines secretary and co-chaired by chairman of the Centre for Study of Science Technology (C-STEP). Members included senior officials and experts from the Department of Science & Technology (DST), the Geological Survey of India, the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), the Department of Atomic Energy, the Defence Research & Development Organization (DRDO) and the chairman of India Rare Earth Ltd. Also Read: China can't afford double standards in fight against terror: S Jaishankar The forward of the committee's report titled ''Rare Earths and Energy Critical Elements: a Roadmap and Strategy for India', published in July 2012, said: 'In view of the increased demand of REE and near monopoly of supply from China, there is a need to develop national policies and implementation strategies for ensuring indigenous supply of REE… A Steering Committee was constituted by the ministry of mines with the ultimate intention of preparing a strategy paper for the government, providing short, medium and long term options along with proposals for specific policy & legislative interventions.' Also Read: 'Gratitude to Indian Navy': China on rescue of crew aboard cargo ship which caught fire off Kerala coast The report was blunt about Beijing's approach. 'China has been the major supplier of rare earths all over the world. Even though it has only 37% of global RE resources, it has captured the worldwide market to the extent of 97%. The low cost and efficient production process enabled China to monopolize the rare-earth market, forcing rare earth operations around the world to close down. Indian Rare Earths Ltd (IREL), which was once a leader in export of rare earth compounds had to shut down its operation in 2008,' the report added. 'Over the last couple of years China has imposed restrictions and curtailed its export by over 30% citing domestic demands as the reason. This unexpected decline has restarted rare earth operations once again throughout the world,' the report said. The same thing is happening again. Indian industries are suffering due to shortage of the critical minerals. According to a Reuters report published in Hindustan Times on Wednesday, automobile majors such as Maruti Suzuki have cut near-term production targets because of rare earth shortages. 'Government departments, particularly the ministry of commerce and industry, are holding hectic meetings with industry and other stakeholders to resolve the supply crisis. Government is using diplomatic channels asking Beijing to relax supply curbs for the Indian industries,' one of the people mentioned in the first instance said. The ministries of mines, commerce and external affairs did not respond to an email query on this matter. China's curbs on exports of rare earth materials have been officially raised through diplomatic channels by India, especially in view of the impact on manufacturers of electric vehicles, people familiar with the matter said. The issue reportedly figured in a meeting between Indian ambassador Pradeep Rawat and China's vice foreign minister Sun Weidong in Beijing on June 5. 'China's move was primarily aimed at the US and the impact on India was collateral damage. We are hopeful that the matter will be resolved soon,' one of the people said. It is not clear how China's deal with the US —the two countries reached a framework agreement that will now have to be approved by their respective Presidents —will affect this. The matter is expected to figure in discussions during a visit to India by Sun Weidong, a former Chinese ambassador to New Delhi, beginning on Thursday, the people said. Sun is visiting India to continue discussions with foreign secretary Vikram Misri aimed at normalising bilateral ties following the end of the military face-off in the Ladakh sector of the Line of Actual Control (LAC) last October. Auto manufacturers affected by the curbs on rare earth exports too have sought to reach out to Chinese authorities but without much success so far, the people said. Two days after India and China reached an understanding on withdrawing forces from the two remaining 'friction points' on the LAC last October, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Xi Jinping met in the Russian city of Kazan and agreed to revive several mechanisms to restore normalcy in ties and to address the long-standing border dispute.

Farmers dump mangoes onstreets after prices crash

Bengaluru/Kolar: Protests erupted in Srinivaspura–India's Mango Capital – located 90 km from Bengaluru, Wednesday following a sudden crash in mango prices. With the king of fruits commanding little respect in the market, distraught farmers across Kolar district took to the streets, demanding a support price and withdrawal of the ban imposed by the neighbouring Andhra Pradesh on Karnataka mangoes. The growers poured several quintals of mangoes on the streets and staged a protest. Fighting the vagaries of weather that cast a dark spell on mango production, the farmers were hopeful of recovering their expenses with whatever was left on the trees. However, with the crash in mango prices, both the farmers and traders incurred losses. "At the beginning of the season, we were dismayed by the delayed flowering and subsequently the crop was debilitated due to the extreme heat, and now the early onset of monsoon has wreaked havoc across the region. Not much is left for us to take home," bemoaned Ravishankar Reddy, a mango farmer in Srinivaspur taluk. With the crop cultivated over 45,000 hectares of area, Kolar supplies more than half of Karnataka's mangoes, and Srinivasapura, with over 35 varieties of the fruit, is known as India's mango capital. But unlike previous years, the prices of mangoes dropped to as low as Rs 3,000-4,000 per tonne. "It used to be around Rs 10,000-12,000 per tonne all these years during this time of the season. In the retail market, 1 kg of mango is sold for Rs 8-10 now! With nearly 40% of the crop awaiting harvest, the price crash has pushed farmers to the wall," lamented Bayya Reddy, another farmer. With a similar situation unfolding in Andhra Pradesh, the border districts of that state refused to allow the transportation of mangoes from Karnataka. This added to the woes of Karnataka farmers, forcing them to shut down the entire taluk Wednesday demanding stability in market prices and free trade across borders. The day-long bandh by the Srinivaspur Mango Growers Association evoked a total response, with all establishments remaining completely closed throughout the day. "The mango market at Srinivaspur gets about 900-1,000 tonnes of mangoes every day, with the demand lasting till July. But this season, there are hardly any takers due to a lack of demand in both Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, where mango pulp processing industries thrive," explained Munishamappa, a farmer from Kolar. "The mango season in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh begins after the harvest in Kolar. However, most of the pulp processing factories in these states did not even use 50% of their stock last year due to a drop in exports, triggered by a steep rise in air cargo charges. Similar is the situation in Srinivaspur taluk. This has affected the overall purchase of mangoes. Besides, the quality of mangoes has also taken a hit this year due to the early onset of monsoon," explained a technical officer of the Karnataka State Mango Board. Sensing the farmers' anguish, Kolar deputy commissioner MR Ravi held a meeting with the farmers and promised them that the district administration would persuade pulp processing units to purchase mangoes, besides exploring other options to stabilise prices in the market. Kolar MP Muniswamy also urged the state govt to announce a minimum support price for mangoes in Karnataka. ——- Box: Govt may announce MSP Horticulture minister SS Mallikarjun acknowledged the crisis across the mango belt of Karnataka and said he discussed the issue with chief minister Siddaramaiah. "We have asked the CM to announce a minimum support price for mangoes. But this would require additional funds, and the finance department headed by the CM must approve our proposal. Currently, the MSP for mangoes is around Rs 3 per kg, and the govt may increase it by Rs 1-2 over the next few days," Mallikarjun said.

SC: Homebuyer seeking refund can't ask builder to reimburse loan interest

NEW DELHI: Supreme Court has held that a homebuyer, who seeks refund due to delay in completion of a project, cannot claim that a developer also reimburse the amount paid as interest on home loan. The buyer is only entitled to the principal amount paid to a company and a 'compensation' in terms of the interest on the said amount as per the agreement, it said. It set aside a consumer court order directing the Greater Mohali Area Development Authority to reimburse the interest paid by a homebuyer to a bank on home loan in addition to refunding the principal amount with 8% interest. SC: How buyer funds flat buy not developer's consideration A bench of Justices Sanjay Karol and Prasanna B Varale said there cannot be multiple heads to grant damages and interest over and above what is agreed upon between the homebuyer and the builder. Referring to various SC verdicts, the bench said there were no exceptional or strong reasons for directing GMADA to pay the interest on the loan taken by the homebuyer. The bench said, "Whether buyers of the flat do so by utilising their savings, taking a loan for such purpose or securing the required finances by any other permissible means, is not a consideration that the developer of the project is required to keep in mind. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like It's Affordable and Actually Works Undo "For, so far as they are concerned, such a consideration is irrelevant. The one who is buying a flat is a consumer, and the one who is building it is a service provider. That is the only relationship between the parties. "If there is a deficiency or delay in service, the consumer is entitled to be compensated for the same. Repayment of the entire principal amount along with 8% interest thereon, as stipulated in the contract, alongside the clarification that there shall be no other liability on the authority, sufficiently meets this requirement." In this case, the Punjab State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission had directed GMADA to refund the entire amount of Rs 41 lakh along with interest at the rate of 8%, apart from compensation of Rs 60,000 to the buyer for the mental tension and harassment suffered by him, in addition to reimbursing the interest paid by the buyer to banks on home loan. The court said once the parties had agreed for a particular consequence of delay in handing over of possession, then there had to be exceptional and strong reasons to award compensation at more than the agreed rate.
