New Delhi (IANS). Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday lauded party leader Rahul Gandhi’s speech in the Lok Sabha, saying he has put India’s voice in the Lok Sabha.

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge tweeted, “Rahul Gandhi put forth India’s voice in the Lok Sabha today (on Wednesday). Pandit Nehru had said – ‘Bharat Mata’ is the people of India only. Our own brothers and sisters are facing violence in Manipur, they are suffering due to insensitivity of BJP.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ministers are talking here and there, but they are not telling how the violence happened, why it was allowed to spread, why the Prime Minister did not appeal for peace, why he did not go there and express his pain to the people. Asked?”

The Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha asked whether the Modi government has nothing to do with the sufferings of the people. Is all his politics just to get votes? His remarks came after Rahul Gandhi accused the BJP government of killing ‘Bharat Mata’ in Manipur and across India.

Speaking in support of the no-confidence motion in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi said that the BJP has thrown kerosene on the entire country today. Thrown on Manipur, set it on fire, sprinkled on Haryana, that too is burning. They are busy burning the whole country! They are not the protectors of Mother India, they are the murderers of Mother India!

Rahul also said that the Prime Minister’s arrogance is burning the entire country. Lanka was burnt not by Lord Hanuman but by the arrogance of Ravana.

And just like that, Prime Minister Modi’s arrogance is burning and destroying India. The BJP is setting the whole country on fire from Manipur to Haryana.

West Bengal. The Mamata Banerjee government has prepared a draft SOP (standard operating procedure) to prevent the use of banned chemicals in small tea gardens. A few months ago, small tea growers in north Bengal - around 10 lakh people are associated with the sector - were facing a crisis as bought-leaf factories (BLFs or standalone tea processing units) stopped buying tea leaves from them. The move was taken following a directive from the Tea Board. The directive, issued in compliance with FSSAI (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India) regulations, states that if banned chemicals are found in any tea sample at any BLF, the concerned BLF will be held responsible. "Since the BLFs buy tea leaves from growers and they have no information whether farmers use banned fertilisers and pesticides or not, they stopped buying tea leaves," said a tea garden owner based in Siliguri. In such a situation, the growers approached Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. On April 3, Mamata, who was staying at a private resort in Chalsa, Jalpaiguri for campaigning, assured the tea growers that the state government would ensure that they did not face any problems. Eventually, the BLF resumed buying tea leaves from tea growers. "Now that the Lok Sabha elections are over, the state government has prepared a draft SOP and a roadmap on how the use of chemicals banned in the tea industry can be completely stopped in small tea gardens," said Bijaygopal Chakraborty, president of the Confederation of Small Tea Growers Associations of India (CISTA). On June 7, the principal secretary of the state's Industries, Commerce and Enterprises department drafted the SOP, which was prepared in consultation with state government departments and stakeholders. The letter mentioned that a district-level review committee comprising representatives of small growers, BLF, state agriculture department and the Tea Board may be constituted to regularly review the situation. In addition, training on food safety may be organised for growers. Also, growers should buy fertilisers and pesticides only from licensed shops and avoid buying any of the 20 banned chemicals," a source said. Pesticides should be strictly used as per the plant protection code issued by the Tea Board. “The state agriculture department can ban the sale of banned chemicals for the tea sector in Bengal's tea-growing districts. The state has around 50,000 small tea growers who contribute to nearly half of Bengal's total tea production. "The Tea Board in collaboration with the agriculture department should organise awareness camps to educate growers as well as those selling fertilisers. Pamphlets in local languages ​​containing a list of 56 chemicals approved for use can be distributed among growers," the source said. The letter also recommended that adequate infrastructure for testing tea samples at optimum levels should be developed in tea-growing areas. "This will reduce the chances of processing or selling tea containing banned chemicals. We welcome this move of the state and will extend all possible cooperation from our side, the SISTA president said.
