Granite polishing units in Prakasam fear closure
1 2 Vijayawada: Thousands of daily workers in Chimakurthy, a granite town in Prakasam district, are struggling to find work as small and medium-sized granite polishing units face the threat of closure due to the entry of big companies into the polishing segment. These small and medium units, numbering around 200, have been handling a substantial volume of business for the past three to four decades, procuring stocks from granite quarries and selling the polished granite to exporters. The polishing units have been responsible for cutting, polishing, and managing equipment and manpower costs, while quarry owners have made direct profits from exporters. This system allowed exporters to enjoy profit margins without investing in labor and machinery. The middle-segment polishing units have been creating massive employment opportunities for both locals and migrant workers, with approximately two lakh people working in various polishing and cutting units in and around Chimakurthy. Each small polishing unit used to handle around 20,000 cubic meters of stock and purchase about 200 containers of stock from quarry managements, supplying the polished granite to big exporters. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Seniors Qualify For the New 87¢ Generic Viagra - See How Health Alliance by Friday Plans Learn More Undo However, the entry of big corporate firms into the polishing segment has altered the industry's dynamics. Each big firm is handling around 1 to 1.5 lakh cubic meters of stock, equivalent to the stock processed by nearly 15-20 small firms. According to sources, around 20 big companies have started operations in Prakasam district, each with the capacity to process about 1.5 lakh cubic meters of stone. This means that just 20 firms are processing a volume equivalent to that of 200 small companies. The big firms have the capacity to handle even more stock in the future due to their advanced machinery, which requires significantly less manpower. Each big unit is reportedly procuring over 150-200 containers of granite per month, equivalent to the entire stock procured by all the small units combined. The granite quarry owners are also supporting the big firms, reportedly making advance payments of Rs 2-4 crore per month. The small polishing unit owners are struggling to survive, and one owner, Raghunatha Reddy, stated that the entry of big firms with advanced machinery and their influence over quarry managements has crippled the industry. The small units cannot survive unless govt intervenes and provides them with some stock.

At LSR's Summer School, open windows to Parsi heritage, Gita
New Delhi: This summer, Lady Shri Ram College (LSR) for Women is opening the doors to India's cultural treasure house—not through its iconic campus corridors, but through the digital windows of Summer School 2025. The inaugural session was launched on Monday. The Summer School kicked off with its first certificate course, 'Bharat Bodh: Ancient Indian Wisdom and its Contemporary Relevance', a collaborative initiative between LSR's Dept of Sanskrit and the Delhi Sanskrit Academy. This is the first in a three-part series under the umbrella title 'Virasat: Tapestries of Indian Culture', designed to engage students in ecological traditions, philosophical insights, and forgotten cultural legacies. The three-part courses are open to undergraduates, postgraduates, and doctoral students across disciplines. In a major departure from tradition, LSR's Summer School has, for the first time, welcomed students from outside the college. "Rooted in the interdisciplinary and culturally informed vision of NEP 2020, I hope our Summer School enhances cultural sensitivity and fosters deeper engagement with India's intellectual and multicultural legacy, taking us closer to our mission of Viksit Bharat," said acting principal Kanika K Ahuja. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Lok Sabha MP Bansuri Swaraj, who was the chief guest at the launch, praised LSR for curating summer programmes that promote holistic education. In the first session, students will explore how ancient Indian texts envisioned a society grounded in environmental stewardship, inner discipline, and cosmic order. Topics include Vedic astrology (Jyotish), the philosophy of "Rashtra Pratham", and the subtle distinctions between chanting and recitation, bridging ancient knowledge with contemporary relevance. For those drawn to psychology, the course "Timeless Lessons – Gita and Psychological Insights" (June 16–26) promises a compelling deep-dive into how the Bhagavad Gita's verses resonate with modern psychological understanding. Among the most distinctive offerings is "An Introduction to Zoroastrianism: Continuity and Change" (June 23–July 2). Focusing on the Parsi Zoroastrian community, it offers a rare and nuanced look at a group whose contributions to Indian society are significant yet often overlooked.
