For the first time, 40MT of biscuits manufactured in Varanasi have been exported to Oman under the India-Oman CEPA, advancing PM @NarendraModi ji's vision of taking 'Made In India' products to the world.

An MoU has also been signed for the supply of nearly 700 MT of biscuits to Oman and other Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries during FY 2026–27.

Preferential tariff benefits available under CEPA have allowed duty-free access for biscuits produced in India, making them more price-competitive in comparison to other key competitors in the Oman market.

This is expected to translate into higher export volumes and repeat orders from importers in the region. Clearly a big boost to our food processing sector with increased production and job generation.

🚨 UNION MINISTER HARDEEP PURI :

"Oil companies lost Rs 74,781 crore from April to June due to West Asia crisis.

Petrol prices surged by 39.77% in Pakistan, 20% in Nepal, and 42.69% in Bangladesh.

In India, the increase in petrol price was just 5.58% during the crisis.

In the entire period of March, April, May and June, there were no dry-outs, disruption, queues in India"

Some traditions are timeless.

Education is not only about what we learn in classrooms. It is also about the values we carry through life.

Gratitude. Humility. Respect 🙏🏻

Beautiful to see these young children in a Kasaragod school keeping this timeless civilisational tradition alive.

These are the values that build a stronger Keralam and a stronger India. 💪

The news that the death toll in the Ammonia gas tragedy in a pvt company in Thiruvallur has increased to 17 is deeply disturbing. All the deceased are women and were migrant guest workers from North India.

The TN government has given Compensation of Rs. 2 lakh to the next of kin of the deceased. How is this sufficient & justified? Odisha government has given Rs. 10 Lakh as compensation to the victim. The Odisha government also facilitated the return of those migrant guest workers who were discharged after the treatment. While the State Govt arranged safe passage of the deceased, how did the State administration forget the plight of those who were discharged from hospitals, waiting to return home?

The tragic loss of lives in the Ammonia gas tragedy in the private export firm in Thiruvallur also raises a lot of questions;

1)The first & foremost being the absence of the implementation of the 1979 Inter-State Migrant Workmen Act. Principal employers of establishments that employ five or more inter-state migrant workers must be registered under the Act. However, this accident and many earlier incidents have only shown that this Act is not implemented in Tamil Nadu and that no registry is being maintained.

Whenever a crime happens that involves a migrant guest worker from North India, a bunch of innocent migrant guest workers from North India are rounded up for enquiry, as there are no ways and means for the Police Department to narrow it down due to lack of registry.

However, after we pointed it out recently, we understand that the TVK Govt has begun enforcing this Act, at least in parts, if not in full. We trust that the State Govt takes the recent accidents/incidents seriously and enforces the availability of the register of migrant guest workers across all districts. TN State Govt could draw inspiration from the Athidhi app developed by Kerala for registering migrant guest workers and to ensure their welfare.

Even in the Thiruvallur ammonia gas tragedy, it was learnt that there was difficulty in establishing the actual identity of one of the deceased women, who carried a forged Aadhaar card to secure employment. This shows the inefficiency of the functioning of the inter-state migrant workers portal launched by TN Govt in 2023.

2)The welfare board for migrant guest workers is basically non-existent and needs to be established, strengthened and should be used to address the concerns of the migrant guest workers.

Tamil Nadu has today fallen below the replacement level, with a fertility rate of 1.3. To build the State’s infrastructure and work in industrial & commercial establishments across the State, we depend on the hard work of our migrant guest workers. Hence, it is important that we focus on their state of living, as most of the migrant guest workers are compelled to live in appalling conditions and have no place to complain, and their voices are never heard.

3)It is not just the duty of the welfare board but also the duty of the Department of Industrial Safety & Health (DISH) of the state government of Tamil Nadu. Even after a catastrophe that led to the death of 17 workers due to an ammonia gas leak, there seems to be no accountability taken by this department. It is time for “Transparency”. DISH should have made public their most recent inspection of this factory and any observations they made.

The factory in which these migrant guest workers suffered had accommodations within the place of work, surrounded by hazardous pipelines. How was this even allowed?

I demand that appropriate compensation be disbursed to the victims, that the 1979 Inter-State Migrant Workmen Act be enforced in both letter & spirit, and that transparency be brought by the Ministry of Labour of the TN State Govt on the functioning of the DISH & they also be made accountable, including the owners of the establishment, for deliberately ignoring the hazardous living conditions of the migrant guest workers.

This long-pending demand will greatly benefit thousands of commuters, students, farmers and traders—especially the lemon growers of the region.

Your favourite Matcha brew, will now be produced in Assam.

Furthering our glorious tea legacy, Assam becomes the first State in India to commercially produce Matcha tea at the Chota Tingrai Tea Estate in Tinsukia.

This diversification to the viral drink will help strengthen brand Assam Tea in the global markets.

This has been made possible due to the strong India-Japan ties and our collaboration in various fields and has fetched a handsome price at the Guwahati Tea Auction Centre.

Vizhinjam Port is the biggest infrastructure project in Keralam's history.

It became a reality because of the unwavering support of PM @narendramodi ji and the Government of India.

The BJP/NDA's position is clear.

✅ We welcome private investment.

✅ We support the growth and success of Vizhinjam Port.

✅ We demand complete transparency.

Vizhinjam is central to the future of Keralam's economy, jobs, investment and development.

That is why it was a key part of the BJP/NDA's manifesto for #VikasitaKeralam.

Private investment is essential for Keralam's future.

Vizhinjam Port is Keralam's biggest Public-Private Partnership (PPP) project.

It was justified in the public interest. Now the State Government must quantify those benefits.

CM @vdsatheesan spoke about “transparency” in his very first Assembly session. Now is the time to walk the talk.

I demand that the CM publish a White Paper detailing exactly what this investment will deliver for the people of Keralam - in jobs, revenue and economic growth.

That is the transparency and accountability Malayalees deserve.
