Minister Shivanand appeals to Centre to allow sugar export

Belagavi: Sugar minister Shivanand Patil said the central govt should lift the restrictions on sugar cane export. He also appealed to govt to prioritise the welfare of sugar cane growers. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Speaking to the media after a meeting at S Nijalingappa Sugar Institute, Patil opined that the welfare of cane growers can be protected only if the central govt allows sugar export. "Many factories left the pending sugar cane bills to farmers because they were not allowed to export. The factories do not have separate capital to pay the bills," the minister said. "Tur is being grown in a significant amount in our country. However, the central govt allowed its import. Due to this, the price of tur has fallen to Rs 90 per kg. The Centre should think about what should be imported and what should be allowed to be exported. The prices of onions and tomatoes should not fall, and farmers should not throw them on the road. The Centre should think in this regard," he said. Competition with Maha sugar industries "The Karnataka govt hopes to give competition to the Maharashtra sugar industry, and in this regard, the state's sugar factories will be provided with necessary help and cooperation," said Patil. Speaking after the presentation of awards to sugar factories that performed well in various categories, the minister said sugar factories should keep the interests of farmers in mind along with their progress. "In recent days, the rise of contract farming has raised concerns as it will destroy the fertility of the soil. Factories should create awareness among farmers about this. The responsibility of managing farmers' land also lies with the factories," he said. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "The central govt announced many new projects, including ethanol. The sugar factories in Karnataka should become a model for other states by utilising these facilities," he added. College bldg at Rs 20cr S Nijalingappa Sugar Institute is starting undergraduate and postgraduate courses in alcohol technology and sugar technology. The college building will be constructed at a cost of Rs 20 crore, the minister said. The institute was established with a view to the growth of the sugar industry, and necessary help and cooperation is being provided to the sugar industry. Sugar cane was cultivated in about 6 lakh hectares in the state for the past two years, and due to good rainfall, it is expected that another 1 lakh hectares will be added. Factories facing sugar cane shortage will no longer face issues.

Air fares surge post Ahmedabad plane crash, rampant price gouging

Following the Ahmedabad plane crash, a sharp increase in air ticket prices is observed, something that can be described as price gouging, or charging excessively high rates. According to reports, nearly 41 per cent tickets have been cancelled, said Tourism and Hospitality Skill Council Chairperson Jyoti Mayal. A travel agent mentioned that a ticket, which was priced slightly above Rs 6,000 before the accident, is now being sold for around Rs 34,000. Mayal said that there has been a significant rise in ticket cancellations following the Ahmedabad plane accident. Speaking to ANI, she said, "I don't want to take names, but some airlines have increased their ticket prices. This is reportedly because flights that are running full due to cancellations have seen a spike in ticket fares. According to her information, around 41 per cent of tickets have been cancelled. However, similar trends were also noticed recently in connection with Jammu and Kashmir." She further mentioned that they are receiving queries from people asking whether the prices of exit row seats will now increase. "I would like to clarify that there is no such information yet suggesting that the fares for exit row seats have increased. She said that it is certain that most people are now demanding seats in the exit row. She also pointed out that travel agents have suffered significant losses in recent days. Whenever any adverse situation arises, the travel trade is the first to be affected," she told ANI. Roopak Punyani, owner of Delhi-based travel company Travel Canvas India Private Limited, said that apart from the overall global situation and recent tensions between India and Pakistan, the Ahmedabad accident has had a serious negative impact. Cancellations are mainly coming from the corporate sector. Most people are now ensuring that they avoid flying in Boeing aircraft, he said. While he did not directly say that this has caused a rise in ticket prices, he noted that direct flights from certain locations are no longer operating. As a result, passengers are having to pay higher fares due to having to travel on connecting flights. Saurabh Tiwari, a travel agent at Sushant Travels, Delhi, said that they are receiving a large number of flight ticket cancellation requests. Passengers are quite scared. Some travellers are even converting their air travel plans into train journeys, causing them significant inconvenience and loss. He also mentioned that cancellations have impacted ticket prices, leading to a surge. For example, a flight from Delhi to Dhaka, which used to cost around Rs 7,000 to Rs 9,000, is now priced between Rs 30,000 to Rs 34,000. According to him, airline companies have increased ticket fares, and this change is being seen due to the cancellation of Air India flights following the Ahmedabad plane accident.

Mumbai stars cash hot realty, endorsements

Yesteryear actor Jeetendra, also a promoter of Balaji Telefilms, created a splash recently selling off two family-owned pieces of prime real estate in Mumbai's sought-after suburb of Andheri for a humungous Rs 855 crore. The 2.4 acre property, which currently houses the Balaji IT Park, and a few commercial buildings, was sold to NTT Global Data Centers. While this deal was the talk of the town because of its size, it was not the only celebrity sell-off. Mumbai in recent months has seen a spate of high value sales by Bollywood actors and cricketers. Earlier, Amitabh Bachchan was in the news for selling a large duplex apartment in a building called 'Atlantis', located in the suburb of Andheri, for Rs 83 crore. In March, actor Akshay Kumar made a splash with the sale of two residential units in a gated community called 'Oberoi Sky City', in the north-west suburb of Borivali, for Rs 6.6 crore. He followed it up in April with the sale of a 1,200 sq ft commercial office space in 'One Place Lodha' for Rs 8 crore. Abhishek Bachchan, also a big real estate player in the Mumbai market, meanwhile, is in the process of offloading a prime duplex apartment on the 40thand 41st floor of one of the towers in Planet Godrej, in the Mahalaxmi Area of south Mumbai. Purchased from Godrej Properties (GPL) around 12years ago, Bachchan Junior has been leasing the apartment at high rentals. Portfolio rejig However, these sales do not herald the exit of the stars from the real estate market. They are deals to cash out of some properties when the going is good, while they rejig their portfolio. 'Amitabh Bachchan's sales are evenly matched by his shopping spree for prime land in Ayodhya,' points out Pankaj Kapoor, founder of the property tracking site LiasesForas.
