RAIPUR: Bastar is just not about Maoist-orchestrated bloodbaths or police encounters with guerrillas, here’s some good news.
A Jagdalpur-based farmer Hardik Taunk, a BSc in horticulture, has harvested 50 tonnes of chilli per acre with fertigation and
mulching techniques. And this fetched him a profit of Rs 90 lakh from just 10 acres. Hardik attributes his success to the
moderate climate of Bastar, which is suitable for growing chilli.
Hardik always wanted to do farming of extensive varieties. He obtained BSc degree in horticulture from Indira Gandhi Krishi

including bitter and sponge gourd.

Hi Explaining the high yield of chilli in his farms, Hardik said, “I managed to produce 50 tonnes of chilli by

and insects.” These techniques also save water and fertilizer cost, he said. The hybrid variety of chilli,
VNR 435, has a high market price tag and is high on demand. It has extra shelf life and remains fresh till it reaches the market.
Even in emergency, a farmer can delay its harvest by a few days.
In 25 acres of land, he has cultivated brinjal, bitter and sponge gourd and guava. On the scope of promising markets of his farm
produce, he said, “I have direct contact with brokers, who buy my chillis in bulk and supply it in Raipur, Nagpur and some
districts of Andhra and Odisha.”

Surguja child’s death puts spotlight on ration card policy

THE CORONA LETTER
Arjun Chouhan (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/toireporter/author-Arjun-Chouhan-479240269.cms) | TNN | May 24, 2015, 00:54 IST (/articleshowprint/47401122.cms)
BILASPUR: Death of a five-year-old child caused by hunger and exhaustion, after he lost his way in forests along with his sibling
in Sitapur in North Chhattisgarh, has sparked off a controversy with Congress alleging that family’s ration card was cancelled
after their mother died due to illness and administration did not issue it in the name of male member.
Leader of opposition TS Singhdeo told TOI that the fact that deceased's mother had died a couple of months ago, following
which the family's ration card was cancelled, indicates insensitivity on part of the administration.
“There is no rule that says that if there is no women above 18 years in the family, ration card will not me made in the name of a
male of the house. Since the woman in this case had died and there was no other woman in the family, the administration
should have taken steps to transfer the ration card in the name of the man of the house,” he added.
Sarguja district collector Ritu Sen admitted that the family’s ration card was cancelled after the woman member of the family
died due to illness. “However, we conduct regular drive for adding names, but none from the family concerned came forward
with the request to issue ration card in the name of male member,” she claimed.
Sen said that there is ample work available under MNREGA and other schemes in the area. In this regard, it would be wrong to
assume that the family did not have any work and was forced to leave the village in search of work.
“The man, along with his children, had come to Sitapur by a bus. From Sitapur, he had left to visit some of his relatives in
another village on foot, when he got separated from two of his children, one of who died,” she claimed.
The collector said the postmortem report did mention that the child died due to starvation as no grain was found in his
intestines, but that was because after being separated from his father, the deceased along with one of his elder brothers was
lost in forest and spent a long time trying to find their way out.

temperature and scorching sun did not diminish our spirit of serving.” 4
The day in history holds significance of Guru’s sacrifice for humanity under the tyranny of Mughal custody. Guru Arjan Dev was
made to sit on a red hot iron sheet and burning hot sand was poured on his body to execute him. Hence, to observe the virtues
of sacrifice and tolerance, devotees across the city offered prayers in Gurudwara by reading the verses of ‘Sukhmani Sahib’ for
40 days.
Mehareen Kaur said, “These religious scriptures are very insightful. Devotees try to emulate Guru’s sacrifice for leading a life of
selfless service for others and building a strong nation.”

Salwa Judum re-launch fizzles out, prayer meeting on May 25
TNN | Updated: May 23, 2015, 00:09 IST (/articleshowprint/47391030.cms)
RAIPUR: Amid opposition from political parties, the move to revive a ‘Salwa Judum’ like people’s movement against Maoists in
tribal Bastar region of Chhattisgarh has fizzled out with organisers now saying that they would organise a meeting on May 25
to pay homage to victims of Naxalite attack in Jheeram Ghati in May 2013.
Slain Congress leader Mahendra Karma’s son Chhavindra Karma and other leaders had announced on May 5 that they would
convene a meeting at Faraspal in Dantewada district on May 25- the third anniversary of Bastar massacre- to chalk out
strategies to re-launch a people’s movement against Maoist rebels. Leaders of erstwhile Salwa Judum had also supported the
move.
While Maoists threatened a bloody backlash against all those trying to revive any movement against them, mainstream political
parties did not come out in open to support the proposed campaign fearing violence and bloodshed in the tribal region.
Late Mahendra Karma’s son and two former Salwa Judum leaders Chaitram Atami and Sukhdev Tati formed a ‘Vikas sangharsh
samiti’ to fight for the development of Bastar. In the process, they sought to project the proposed movement as the second
phase of salwa judum.
“We are organising a meeting at Faraspal on May 25 to pay homage to Mahendra karma and others who were killed in Maoist
attack farmer-harvests-big-bucks-from-chilli-
