The Hindu Editorial


➢ But it remains to be seen whether the Court, which has insistedon sticking to the timelines, would relent when it hears thematter on July 23.

➢ A humanitarian crisis awaits Assam whether the final NRC ispublished on July 31 or after. In the run-up to the finalpublication, case after case has emerged of persons wrongfullyleft out of the list. The process has left no group out of its sweep,be it Marwaris or Biharis from elsewhere in the country, peopletracing their antecedents to other Northeastern states, people ofNepali origin, and caste Hindu Assamese.

➢ The prime targets of this exercise, however, are Hindu Bengalisand Bengali-origin Muslims of Assam — more than 80% of the 4.1million people named in the two lists belong to these two groups






The Hindu Editorial


➢ The joint plea sought time to conduct a 20% sample reverificationprocess in districts bordering Bangladesh and 10% in the rest ofthe State to quell a “growing perception” that lakhs of illegalimmigrants may have slipped into the list.

➢ This, despite the State NRC Coordinator’s reports to the apexcourt suggesting that up to 27% of names have been reverifiedduring the process of disposal of claims. It hasn’t helped that theCentral government keeps holding out the prospect of unleashinga nationwide NRC to detect and deport illegal aliens, when it hasno index to base such an exercise on — the 1951 register wasexclusive to Assam.

➢ Final Words: The accent should be on inclusion, not exclusion.The wheels of justice cannot pander to the suspicions of a vocalmajority without giving the excluded access to due process.

The Hindu Editorial


Title: Green shoots of economic growth(Without factoring in agriculture, the vision of a $5-trillion economywill remain a distant dream)

Context:India’s dream of becoming a $5-trillion economy by 2024 is now inthe open with a ‘blue sky’ vision envisaged in the Economic Surveythis year.






The Hindu Editorial


➢ However, unless there are adequate investment reforms inprimary sectors, steps taken to augment growth in other sectorswould be futile.

Investment is the key➢ According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO),

insufficient investment in the agriculture sector in mostdeveloping countries over the past 30 years has resulted in lowproductivity and stagnant production.

➢ Strengthening the sector with an enabling investment package(both public and private) is critical.

➢ First, the wave of investment should touch segments such asagro-processing, and exports, agri-startups and agri-tourism,where the potential for job creation and capacity utilisation is farless.






The Hindu Editorial


➢ Second, investment needs to be driven to strengthen both public andprivate extension advisory systems and the quality of agri-educationand research through collaboration and convergence.

➢ Third, given that India has the highest livestock population in theworld, investment should be made to utilise this surplus by employingnext-generation livestock technology with a strong emphasis not onlyon productivity enhancement but also on conservation of indigenousgermplasm, disease surveillance, quality control, waste utilisation andvalue addition. This would lead to a sustained increase in farm incomeand savings with an export-oriented growth model.

➢ Fourth, investment in renewable energy generation (using small windmill and solar pumps) on fallow farmland and in hilly terrain wouldhelp reduce the burden of debt-ridden electricity distributioncompanies and State governments, besides enabling energy securityin rural areas.






The Hindu Editorial


➢ Fifth, a farm business organisation is another source of routing privateinvestment to agriculture. Linking these organisations with commodityexchanges would provide agriculture commodities more space oninternational trading platforms and reduce the burden of markets in aglut season, with certain policy/procedural modifications.

Final Words➢Agriculture and its allied sectors are believed to be one of the most

fertile grounds to help achieve the ambitious SustainableDevelopmental Goals (SDGs). However, with the current pace ofagriculture growth, India requires ‘patient capital’, as financial returnsto investment are unlikely to materialise in the initial years. Aninclusive business model facilitating strong investor-farmer relationsshould be created, with a legal and institutional framework forgovernance. Expanding institutions is essential to accommodate thedevelopmental impacts of foreign agricultural investment.
