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

When television news anchor Rahul Kanwal got through to Srinivasan and asked him about Meiyappan’s arrest, the BCCI president reacted with thuggish belligerence: 'Shut up, just shut up.
