Opposition questions the need of Global Bihar Summit Posted: 18 Feb 2012 10:06 AM PST Global Bihar Summit 2012 is becoming a political war front . While Bihar CM Nitish took it as a weapon to emphasize his long cherished demand of the special category status to Bihar and urged the Central Bureaucrats to support him, opposition parties have termed it as sheer waste of money and show-off. Earlier Left parties showed their dissentment towards the meet, and now the Lalu Prasad Yadav has questioned the very need of such a meet. He argued that Bihar Government had hosted a similar summit on “Resurgent Bihar” 5 years back but nothing came off out of it. Not not a single investor came to Bihar. The opposition point gets a boost in view of the fact that both CM and Deputy CM have reiterated that no investment proposals or MoU would be signed during the 3 day summit. Editorial Comments Most of the guests in the summit are top Business tycoons, NRIs and various celebrities of International Repute. A visit by them would definitely boost the image of Bihar in the outside world. Besides if we closely watch some of the guests like Infosys former chief N.R. Narayana Murthy, IT major Wipro Technologies chairman Azim Premji, Aditya Birla groupchairman Kumar Manglam Birla, Securities and Exchange Board of India chairman U.K. Sinha, economist Lord Meghnad Desai and Liquor Baron Lord Karan Bilimoria, it can be easily inferred that this summit can trigger a multitude of Investment proposals in near future. Godrej Agrovet is setting up a Rs 70-crore cattle and poultry feed mill at Hajipur, across the Ganga river from Patna. Biscuit major Britannia is also setting up a 50,000-tonne bakery at Hajipur. Lord Karan Bilmoria has already given a nod to setup a brewary plant in Bihar while IT Major Infosys is very soon going to start its center near Bihta, Patna. Ruchi Soya, the Mumbai based Rs 11,700 crore FMCG group, best known for its edible oils, is pumping Rs 200 crore into setting up agro-processing centres at Kaimur, 170 km northwest of Patna, In these scenario, this summit would definitely outcome fruitful results.

Kingfisher in big trouble and may scale down Flights Posted: 18 Feb 2012 08:53 AM PST There is a bad news . Despite positive speculations, cash-strip Kingfisher Airlines could not sustain the wrath of Market and is likely to down scale its operation in Tier 2 and Tier 3 Cities in coming days Already , the number of Kingfisher flights has come down to 160 a day from 240 flights a day. It is likely to continue like this. They seem to have shut down Lucknow, Bhubaneswar, Patna, Srinagar, Kolkata and Hyderabad. The airline has not issued any statement on its Kolkata operations despite flights from Kolkata to Delhi, Mumbai, Bhubaneswar, Bagdogra, Aizwal, Silchar, Dhaka and Bangkok being taken off the ticketing sites. “Kingfisher flight bookings for several flights do not seem to be available until March 28. It seems flight tickets are not being sold. However, technically speaking flights are being shown as available on the airline’s global distribution systems. The company does not seem to have informed anything to their travel agents and the travel trade fraternity either. So, there is a lot of confusion in the market over Kingfisher Airlines’ operations,” a Delhi-based travel industry source said. . Sources also said the Mumbai-Delhi flight bookings are shut, as Kingfisher has cancelled Delhi-Bangalore and Delhi-Pune flights. Its Bangkok station has also been shut down. The development comes after Friday’s confusion when Kingfisher Airline’s employees in the commercial, cargo and engineering sections protested at Kolkata Airport over non-payment of salaries, leaving 24 Bhubaneswar-bound passengers and 174 Mumbai-bound passengers in lurch. Sources said that while the Bhubaneswar flight was cancelled, protests by Mumbai-bound passengers led to intervention by airport officials and the flight was operated later in the evening. The schedule of flights today and tomorrow are not clear yet with adamant employees still protesting unless salaries are paid. |
