Second White Revolution -
Business Line
The launch of a Rs 17,000-crore National Dairy Plan (NDP) to enable India's milk production to meet a projected demand of 200 million tonnes (mt) by 2021-22, is a timely initiative. With output last year estimated at 125 mt, the target calls for raising our annual yield by 7.5 mt, as against the average 4 mt achieved over the last 10 years. That makes it an extremely ambitious considering the growing pressure on fodder and feed resources, besides rising opportunity cost of rural labour: Grazing, feeding, cleaning and milking buffaloes daily is not an enticing proposition for today's workforce, including those from agricultural families.

Verbatim |
 Nothing epitomises Congress's oligarchic culture, hinging on a power cabal that centres in a ‘High Command', than disgraced former Union Minister for Law and Justice Ashwani Kumar's parting statement in his own defence while demitting office. “Whatever the PM and the party High Command thought fit, as a loyal foot soldier, I have done, and I am proud of the fact that I have been a loyal foot soldier of the party”. There is no word about his loyalty to the nation, which, for patriotic Indians, should have precedence over party, Prime Minister and high command. But not in the Congress's scheme of things, which, in the final reckoning, is a matter of perpetuating the Nehru-Gandhi family's hegemony.
