Amaravati (AP), Sep 14: A court in Maharashtra has issued an arrest warrant against Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and 15 others in a 2010 case related to an agitation staged by them over the Babli project across the Godavari river.

Judicial Magistrate First Class of Dharmabad in Nanded district N R Gajbhiye issued the order, directing the police to arrest all the accused and produce them in the court by September 21.

Naidu and others, then in the opposition in the united Andhra Pradesh, were arrested and lodged in a Pune jail in connection with the agitation staged by them near the Babli project site in Maharashtra, opposing it on the ground that it would affect the people downstream.

All of them were released later, though they had not sought bail.

The court order, dated July 5 and supposed to be executed by August 16 but corrected to September 21, was issued on a petition filed by a Maharashtra resident.

Besides Naidu, state Water Resources Minister Devineni Umamaheswara Rao, Social Welfare Minister N Anand Babu and former MLA G Kamalakar (who subsequently joined the Telangana Rashtra Samithi) were among the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) workers booked in the case.

They have been charged with offences under the Indian Penal Code, including assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty, voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapons or means, act endangering life or personal safety of others, criminal intimidation among others.

Naidu was the leader of opposition in the united Andhra Pradesh then and the case has been pending trial all these years.

Reacting to the news about the court order, Naidu's son and state Information Technology Minister N Lokesh said his father and the other TDP leaders would appear in court.

"He (Naidu) fought to protect the interests of Telangana. He even refused to seek bail when he was arrested," Lokesh said.

The chief minister is currently camping in Tirumala, near Tirupati, attending the annual Brahmotsavam of the Lord Venkateswara temple there. (PTI)

Amaravati, Jun 23 : Criticising his political opponents, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu today said Andhra Pradesh would be torn apart if "monkey gangs", making countless promises that could not be fulfilled, come to power in the state after the assembly polls scheduled next year.

He was addressing anganwadi teachers, who came to thank him for enhancing their salaries, at his residence here, a release from the Telugu Desam Party said.

"Some people are promising a lot of things, which cannot be fulfilled. The state will be torn apart if such monkey gangs come to power," Naidu said.

Development would continue only if one party was voted to power in successive elections, he said.

The Chief Minister asked the anganwadi teachers to spread word in the villages that the state would have a future only if "Chandranna" (Chandrababus nickname) remained in power.

He alleged that people of the country were facing hardships because of demonetisation and implementation of GST.

"The centre has destroyed the agricultural sector as well," he alleged.

Naidu claimed that he created a lot of wealth in the state during last four years of TDP government as a result of which there was happiness in society, despite the Centre not extending any cooperation to the state.

"If you all stand by me, there will not be any opposition left and the state's progress will continue. If you all vote and help us (TDP) win all 25 Lok Sabha seats (in general elections next year), we will be in a position to decide who becomes the Prime Minister and we can demand and get things done," the TDP supremo said.

Minister for Women and Child Development Paritala Sunitha and officials of the department were also present on the occassion.  PTI

New Delhi, Nov 3: Emphasising India’s upward jump in the World Bank Report rankings for “ease of doing business”, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday gave a call to global leaders, captains of industry and private sector to become a part of India’s growth journey in the food processing sector.
Inaugurating the first-ever World Food India 2017 here, Mr Modi said the food processing sector held the key to raising rural incomes across the value chain and that state governments could play a vital role by specialising in at least one farm produce that can be marketed in the world. Each district should also identify its potential and strength in food processing sector that will draw world attention.
It is expected that India will attract Foreign Direct Investment to the tune of 11 billion dollars during the three-day World Food India 2017 event.
The event was attended among others by Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan, Latvian Prime Minister Maris Kucinskis, Ministers from Italy, Germany and Denmark, Chief Ministers Raman Singh and N Chandrababu Naidu.
Seeking investments in “contract farming”, Mr Modi asked global supermarket chains to look at India as a major outsourcing hub. “There is a great opportunity here for investing in logistics, infrastructure, cold chains, refrigeration transportation and in niche areas such as organic farming and fortified foods.’’
Sharing the dais were global heads of Nestle, Unilever, Metro cash and carry and Tata International and many others.
The Prime Minister said the government had taken several crucial steps to attract investment in the sector such as repealing archaic laws, simplifying procedures for clearances and reducing burden of compliance.
“The Good and Services Tax eliminates multiplicity of taxes, 100 per cent FDI in trade and manufacturing and Single Window clearances are key reforms to help the food processing industry. “Hand holding” extends to loans and priority sector lending for agro processing,” he said.
Stressing India’s supremacy in production of cereals, milk, fruits, vegetables, Mr. Modi said the “blue revolution” in fisheries, organic farming and the potential in the north-east were areas that have much to offer.
“Can we link India’s potential in the sector with world’s requirement.? Can we have joint ventures that can raise incomes and add nutrition value to the farm produce? Can we link to world markets?” the Prime Minister asked.
On the occasion, Mr Modi opened “Nivesh Bandhu”, an online portal that will give all infrastructure and agriculture potential information to an investor for every state and union territory in the country.
Food Processing Minister Harsimrat Kaur Badal, the host of the event, described the event as “historic” and said 8,000 exhibitors from 60 countries were participating at the event.
The Prime Minister, accompanied by Ms Badal, later visited the exhibition venue on India Gate lawns. UNI
