Sharma dials Punjab CM over Ferozepur feeder project

Jaipur: CM Bhajan Lal Sharma Wednesday dialled Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann to discuss progress of Ferozepur Feeder Reconstruction Project. This is likely to expedite the feeder reconstruction work crucial for Rajasthan farmers in Gang Canal area. Sharma said the Gang Canal system, the lifeline of the northwestern region, especially Sriganganagar and Hanumangarh, will be strengthened. The feeder reconstruction project was approved by Central Water Commission in April with Punjab sharing 58.5% and Rajasthan 41.5% of the total project cost of Rs 647.6 cr. Reconstruction of the feeder will increase its capacity from 11,192 cusecs to 13,842 cusecs, allowing water which flows to Pakistan in monsoon to be conserved in Gang Canal area. tnn

Basmati export centre coming up in Pilibhit to boost premium production

Pilibhit: Farmers in Pilibhit are preparing to take their high-quality Basmati rice to over 100 countries with support from the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA). Tired of too many ads? go ad free now To boost exports and improve local production, APEDA is setting up Uttar Pradesh's second Basmati Export Development Foundation (BEDF) in Pilibhit, following a Rs 10 crore project in Meerut. The move comes after efforts by Union minister of state for commerce and industry Jitin Prasada who is also the MP of Pilibhit. APEDA has now approved a 7-acre plot at the govt agriculture farm in Tanda Bijesi village for the BEDF. BEDF joint director Dr Ritesh Sharma said India exports Basmati rice to over 100 countries, including in Europe, the US, and the Middle East and that "a significant share of India's agricultural foreign exchange earnings comes from Basmati exports, with major contributions from Punjab, Haryana, and western Uttar Pradesh". The proposed BEDF in Pilibhit will include a research, demonstration, and training centre; a high-quality seed production unit; and a world-class NABL-accredited lab to test Basmati DNA, pesticide residues, and heavy metals: requirements crucial to meet global export standards. "The BEDF aims to promote high-quality Basmati cultivation in Pilibhit, train farmers in advanced techniques, and provide marketing support, particularly for exports. Farmers will also be trained to produce nucleus Basmati seeds," said Sharma. He added, "Entrepreneurs and exporters involved in paddy processing and seed production will also receive training in scientific techniques. The programme will be free of cost and will benefit farmers from other states as well." Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Despite being one of UP's top coarse paddy producers, Pilibhit lags in Basmati cultivation due to a lack of marketing support and absence of a govt procurement scheme under the minimum support price (MSP) structure, discouraging many farmers from switching. District agriculture records show paddy is grown on 1.45 to 1.47 lakh hectares annually, but Basmati is limited to just 7,000–8,000 hectares. While Basmati yields 40–45 quintals per hectare compared to 60–65 for coarse paddy, its market price makes up for it. "In 2024–25, the UP govt procured coarse paddy at Rs 2,300 per quintal, but Basmati fetched up to Rs 5,500, offering farmers a potential additional profit of Rs 90,000 per hectare," said Manjit Singh Sandhu, a farmer from Bela Pokhra cultivating both varieties. SS Dhaka, plant physiologist at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, said, "The Terai region's nighttime temperatures of 20–24°C and high monsoon humidity make Pilibhit ideal for Basmati's vegetative growth." To support marginal Basmati producers, farmer producer organisations (FPOs) will be set up under the state's export promotion policy, linking local farmers directly with exporter groups.

"Everything Is Systematic": Indian Man Praises China After Travelling 1,600 km By High-Speed Train

A Delhi-based entrepreneur has sparked a conversation online after sharing how impressed he was by the convenience of travel during a recent visit to China. In a series of posts, Akash Bansal, the co-founder of Skyvik, revealed that he covered 1,600 km in a single day, and was still back in bed by night. He shared that the entire journey cost him just Rs 8,000, including Rs 4,000 for an 800-km leg completed in 4.5 hours on China's high-speed rail. However, for Mr Bansal, it wasn't just about the speed; it was the seamless experience that impressed him. "So, I traveled 1600 km in a single day for a 3-hour meeting and wasn't dead by the end. This shows how convenient life in China is. I took a train in the morning, traveled 800 km one way, had a meeting, and returned at night to sleep in my bed," Mr Bansal wrote. So, I traveled 1600 km in a single day for a 3-hour meeting and wasn't dead by the end. This shows how convenient life in China is. I took a train in the morning, traveled 800 km one way, had a meeting, and returned at night to sleep in my bed. — Akash Bansal (@akashbnsal) June 24, 2025 In the following post, the entrepreneur praised the size and efficiency of Chinese train stations and shared how smooth the boarding process was. "Stations are massive. You enter the platform just 10 minutes before departure, and the gates open on both sides, east and west. You simply scan your national ID or passport at the scanner, and the door opens. Let's say you arrive early. Go to the counter, and they will change your ticket to an earlier train. How sick is that?" he wrote. "They have thousands of seating capacity at the stations, and almost 30% are massage chairs. You pay around 100 Rupees and wait while receiving a massage. Everything is just so systematic, no nonsense at all," he continued. Further, Mr Bansal explained, "Once I reached a station half an hour early, a security person approached me, checked my ticket, and took me to the counter to change it for a train that was departing in the next 10 minutes. Mind you, I said nothing; this fellow did all this on his own. He could have ignored me." The entrepreneur's post has sparked a wide range of reactions on social media. While some asked genuine questions about his journey, others jokingly asked why he didn't just take the meeting online. "Google Meet ya Zoom kar leta?" jokingly wrote one user. To this, Mr Bansal shared that it was meeting about hardware, and an online meeting wasn't possible. "That's truly impressive! The efficiency and convenience of China's high-speed rail system make it sound like they transform travel into a seamless experience. It highlights what's possible with modern infrastructure and efficient systems, making long distances feel short," expressed one user. "They really have good infrastructure ! high speed railways!" said another. "That's not just convenience - that's infrastructure-driven productivity at scale. When speed meets reliability, economic output compounds. India has a lot to learn here," commented a third user. "China's bullet train project is still far away from breakeven. It is still luxury to setup such a big infra. I would not want this to be in india. rather have more airport connectivity," one user wrote.
