Two-day conference on ‘Public policy in India and the Global South' held in Thiruvananthapuram
International trade continues to be skewed heavily in favour of the wealthy Global North countries, despite the fact that the Global South, which includes India, supplies 90% of the labour force, Kerala Statistical Commission chairman P.C. Mohanan has said. Mr. Mohanan was speaking at a two-day national conference on 'Public policy in India and the Global South' organised here by the Public Policy Research Institute (PPRI). Despite accounting for the major chunk of the world's labour force, developing nations receive only 21% of the wealth generated. Wages in the Global South countries are not even 10% of that in the wealthier nations, Mr. Mohanan said. US President Donald Trump's economic policies will adversely impact the World Trade Organisation, State Finance Commission chairman K.N. Harilal said. It is the wealthier nations that impose higher import duties on agricultural products, Sachin Kumar Sharma of the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade, said. While an Indian farmer receives $429-worth of subsidies a year, a farmer in the US gets $90,375, he said. PPRI director Mohanakumar S. inaugurated the two-day event. Researchers from leading institutes including the Indian Institutes of Technology and the Indian Institutes of Management and universities presented papers at the conference.

Joint efforts under way to combat illegal liquor and drug sales in Kollam
The district-level monitoring committee formed to enforce the ban on arrack has demanded strict inspections to prevent the sale of liquor beyond permissible limits and drug peddling. At a meeting chaired by District Collector N. Devidas on Friday instructions were given to departments concerned to intensify surveillance. During the past two months, the Excise department conducted 2,173 raids in the district under 'Operation Clean Slate' and 272 people were arrested in 256 drug-related cases. As part of the 'Vimukthi' campaign, 201 awareness classes were held at the school level while 96 classes were organised at colleges. The committee assessed that the Excise department's vigilant efforts helped prevent the inflow of spurious liquor and reduce drug trafficking. The committee also demanded that strict action be taken against complaints of illegal liquor and drug sales in Munroe Thuruthu. In order to address the issue, it was decided to conduct joint inspections by the police and excise in Kalluvathukkal, Kallumthazham, Chathannur, Mayyanad, Mukhathala, and Karunagappally. Directions were also issued to intensify inspections in tourist centres, flats and secluded areas. While awareness sessions in schools will be made more active, inspections will be held on college hostels, railway and bus stands, and shops selling 'arishtams'. P.C. Vishnunath, MLA; Deputy Excise Commissioner M. Naushad; Assistant Excise Commissioner V.C. Baiju; and monitoring committee members attended the meeting.
