Amarnath Yatra would be a challenge this year, but all arrangements will be made: Omar Abdullah
According to a government spokesperson, the preparedness for the upcoming religious festivals was discussed in detail. The chief minister, who chaired a high-level meeting in Gulmarg to assess the functioning of various departments, reviewed CAPEX works, emergency preparedness, tourist safety, sports and adventure tourism, mobile connectivity, and works in sectors like health and rural development. Gulmarg (J-K), May 28 (PTI) Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday said conducting the annual Amarnath Yatra this year would be a 'challenge' in the aftermath of the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, but expressed confidence that all the necessary arrangements would be made for the smooth pilgrimage. He said that while discussing the upcoming religious events like Mela Kheer Bhawani, Eid, Muharram and Amarnath Yatra, Abdullah asserted that 'this year's pilgrimage will be especially challenging'. 'From a security and logistical standpoint, we must ensure that the Yatra is conducted smoothly. I am confident, given your experience, that all necessary arrangements will be made,' the chief minister said in the meeting. The meeting was attended by the council of ministers, all administrative secretaries, divisional commissioner of Kashmir, deputy commissioner of Baramulla, senior police officers and heads of several departments. Quoting the Urdu couplet 'Dil na-umeed to nahi, nakaam hi to hai; Lambi haigham ki shaam, magar shaam hi to hai (Just because my heart is helpless, it is not hopeless; the grief-filled evening is long, but it's still just an evening),' Abdullah reflected on the importance of optimism during adversity. 'These lines, which I also quoted at the recent NITI Aayog meeting, serve as a reminder that even in the dark times, hope must prevail. What happened recently marks one of the most difficult phases in recent years, but we have endured worse over the past four decades — and always found a way to bounce back,' he said. A day earlier, Abdullah chaired a meeting of his council of ministers in Pahalgam. He said holding back-to-back meetings at tourist resorts Pahalgam and Gulmarg is an effort to instil public confidence and encourage people to visit Kashmir. 'These meetings are not symbolic. They are part of a larger effort to initiate a return to normalcy and restore confidence,' he said. Abdullah said this was the first time such an administrative meeting was held outside the twin secretariats of Jammu and Srinagar. 'In my previous tenure, we took the cabinet to remote areas, but senior-level departmental reviews were confined to the capitals. Holding this meeting here is to transition away from the unfortunate events of the last six weeks,' he added. Referring to his participation in the recent NITI Aayog meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Abdullah said he had urged the Prime Minister and other ministers to consider Jammu and Kashmir, especially the Valley, as a venue for central PSU board meetings and conferences, particularly in summer when most seek respite from the heat. 'We had several parliamentary committee meetings scheduled in the Valley, which were cancelled after April 22. I have requested the Centre to work with the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha Secretariats to bring those meetings back. Some ministers have already committed to doing so,' he said. Later, the chief minister also met delegations from various trade associations in Gulmarg and interacted with visiting tourists.

Track credit schemes, add re focus in Capex survey: MoSPI
The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation ( MoSPI ) on Tuesday called for monitoring the utilisation and impact of credit access programmes such as MUDRA to support enterprise formalisation and financial inclusion in the upcoming Private Sector Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) and Annual Survey of Unincorporated Sector Enterprises ( ASUSE ) surveys. In a statement issued after the Data Users Conference in Hyderabad, the ministry said there is a need to include "dedicated questions on investment intentions in renewable energy sources such as biomass, solar, and wind in the upcoming round of the CAPEX survey ." Addressing the gathering, V Anantha Nageswaran, Chief Economic Advisor (CEA), stated that conviction for policy reform must be sustained by the pulse of granular data. "The ASUSE and the Private Sector CAPEX Investment Intention Survey together cover wide ground in providing a realistic picture of activity in India's private sector," he said. The ministry also recommended enriching the ASUSE database by profiling the age of proprietary and partnership establishments and proposed capturing information on the reasons behind starting businesses in the unincorporated sector to enhance establishment profiling.

The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has called for monitoring the utilisation and impact of credit access programmes such as MUDRA to support enterprise formalisation and financial inclusion in the upcoming Private Sector Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) and Annual Survey of Unincorporated Sector Enterprises (ASUSE) surveys.

Anantha Nageswaran, Chief Economic Advisor (CEA), stated that conviction for policy reform must be sustained by the pulse of granular data. Among other topics, the conference focused on expanding the ASUSE and CAPEX datasets to include foreign direct investment (FDI), exports, imports, and participation in global value chains, aligning with India's Vision 2047 goals. The ministry also suggested that upcoming surveys should include dedicated questions on investment intentions in renewable energy sources, such as biomass, solar, and wind, in the next round of the CAPEX survey.
