The Maharashtra government has made it mandatory for residents to wear masks in public areas, with the exception of open spaces, due to an increase in covid cases in the state.

In a letter to all district authorities, Additional Chief Secretary Dr Pradeep Vyas issued various instructions, including one requiring the wearing of masks in public areas. “It’s essential to wear a mask in enclosed public venues such as trains, buses, movies, auditoriums, offices, hospitals, colleges, and schools,” he said.

Additional Chief Secretary (Health) Pradeep Vyas wrote to collectors, municipal corporations, and chief executive officers, urging them to guarantee that at least 60% of RT-PCR tests are performed.

The number of cases in the state has risen dramatically in the previous week, with 1,081 instances reported on June 1st, the highest number since February 24.

“Despite repeated directives, testing in the state has decreased significantly. According to data as of June 1, there has been a significant decrease in the number of weekly tests conducted in 26 districts, which is a serious source of concern. “All districts should immediately enhance overall testing,” the letter stated.

Thestatesman in put

Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) national spokesperson Rakesh Tikait has alleged that the government “wants to get him killed” and that the attacks on him in Karnataka and Delhi are proof enough.

He was addressing the farmers and union members at “Kisan Panchayat” in Meerut’s Kanker Khera on Friday.

Terming the recent black paint attack on him in Karnataka a “well-planned” conspiracy, he alleged that there was also a plot to kill him when he visited General Bipin Rawat’s residence in Delhi to pay homage to him after he passed away in a helicopter accident last December.

It is a crucial time which cannot be wasted in infighting as the government is playing “sabotage” politics to disband the farmers’ union, he stated.

“The Tikait family has always raised the farmers’ voice strongly and will continue doing it. After Baba Mahendra Singh Tikait, Naresh Tikait has now dedicated himself to the cause. The Tikait family will not succumb to the pressure,” he asserted.

Before the elections, he said that the Uttar Pradesh government had promised free electricity for irrigation but now farmers are being “harassed by installing meters on tube wells”, which will not be tolerated.

Tractors more than 10 years are being stopped. BKU is fighting against such harassments. Tikait added.

Appealing to farmers to get maximum number of people under the union’s fold, the farmer leader said that only a strong and united fight against the government will fetch results.

“The fight is on will continue until the government comes to the negotiating table. Till then, there will be no solution,” he concluded.

Earthworms have become true 'Mitaan' of Women in Gitpahar

Women in Gitpahar are earning good income by selling earthworms and vermi compost

Earthworms play an important role in making the soil fertile, and hence, they are called friends to farmers. But who had known that these creepy crawlers can become the 'mitaan' of women and create an additional source of income for them. It sounds strange but it is true. Women in Gitpahar Gram Panchayat have befriended these tiny creatures to explore a whole new dimension of financial empowerment.

Resident of Gitpahar, Urvashi Jain had started practicing vermiculture at the local Gauthan around one and a half years ago, under Suraaji Gaon Yojana of Chief Minister Mr Bhupesh Baghel. And till date, Urvashi and her self-help group Saraswati Mahila Swa-Sahayta Samooh has sold nearly 7 quintals of earthworms worth Rs one lakh 37 thousand. Today, they have sufficient quantity of earthworms to meet the demand of farmers and other gauthans. Besides, they have also earned a profit of Rs one lakh 39 thousand by selling vermi compost.

Sangeeta Patel of village Jepra also has similar success story to tell. She too has sold 5 quintals of earthworms worth Rs 90 thousand in a span of one and a half years. She has also earned a profit of Rs 2 lakh by selling 40 quintals of vermi compost so far.

Both Urvashi and Sangeeta were provided earthworms by Agriculture Department. Both the beneficiaries created a favourable environment for vermiculture and in this way the quantity of earthworms multiplied. And today, not only the private traders but the Agriculture Department itself procures earthworms from Urvashi and Sangeeta.

A field distillation unit has been established in Rajagaon to extract the aromatic oils from these aromatic crops. This process will help the farmers to get 10 times more profit than traditional crops. The extracted aromatic oil is used in making perfumes, essential oils, medicinal oils, soaps, liquid handwash, sanitizers and mosquito repellents.

The Production Centre itself acted as a marketplace

Mr. Harishchandra Koram, a member of Indira Van Mitan Group, Managing Committee of Aromatic Kondanar, said that after the MoU beetween district administration and Sunflag Agrotech, it will be easy to reach the oil markets of Indonesia, Europe and US where oils extracted in Gauthans can be exported for a significant profit. He said that now the producers will not have to search for a marketplace to sell oil, the aroma of Aromatic Kondanar will itself attract the buyers here.

Contribution towards malaria-free Bastar campaign

Aromatic oil extracted from the aromatic plant is also used in manufacturing mosquito repellent. This process of oil extraction will be helpful in the malaria-free Bastar campaign of the state government. ,Due to this the mortality rate due to malaria will also come down in the region.

Farmers are getting prosperous due to the cultivation of aromatic crops

Sampat Singh Netam, a resident farmer in the village of Mirdongar, told that he has received a forest rights letter for about 2.5 acres of land from the state government. He has been cultivating paddy for the last several years in this land, from which he used to get an income of approximately 25 thousand per acre annually. After getting the information about the cultivation of aromatic plants by the district administration, he has started to produce lemon grass in 1 acre and khus (vetivare) in about one and a half acres. The market price of aromatic oil is Rs 1500 per liter. At this rate, he will receive a profit of 70 to 80 thousand rupees annually per acre which is almost three times the profit he was generating with the traditional mode of farming paddy
