Nagpur Soybean, Soyoil, Soymeal Open- December 23, 2019

Nagpur, Dec 23 (Reuters)–In the Vidarbha region of Western Maharashtra, soybean and cotton oil prices grew on seasonal demand for fresh purchases by Vansaspati millers in the midst of a strong global trend. Since Malaysian palm oil and American soya digam recovered smartly, sentiment also changed. According to reports, a healthy increase on NCDEX and a fresh rise in soybean oil prices in Madhya Pradesh also fuelled prices.

Manufacturing units in MIHAN will provide jobs

The MIHAN project was the dream project of late former Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh. His concept was that Nagpur is in the middle of NAGPUR and here comes an export hub, then Vidarbha’s economy can improve well. Keeping this in mind, Mihan was born. The government took ground there and the project started. Initially, it was marketed very well. Its head office was kept in Mumbai. Mihan was promoted everywhere in the country and was distributed in two ways. One was placed in SEZ, and some in non-SEZ. Some were placed in a commercial. There was a lot of effort at that time. Then the government changed. The way Mihan needed to push after changing the government. That government did not do this. At that time there was a boom of software in the whole country. Perhaps Mihan could not get the benefit of that boom. This is to say that Nitin Lonkar, president of Butibori Manufacturers Association. During this, Lonkar told that due to not getting the benefit of the boom, the land by big companies like Wipro, Infosys. But they could not start functioning. We needed to pursue Mihan. But due to lack of promotion, Mihan could not develop. On the infrastructure of crores of rupees which are engaged in Mihan, Lonkar said that there is a world-class infrastructure in Mihan. Infrastructure is equipped with all facilities. Sarkar wanted to attract international software companies and international companies of the country. Mihan will get the benefit of the government’s expenditure in the coming time. Talking about the employment of youth of Vidarbha in Mihan, he said that the promotion we gave to the software companies in SEZ was not right. Because there are fewer employment opportunities for software companies. While manufacturing employs 100 people, software companies employ only 10 people. If it were a manufacturing area instead of SEZ, employment would increase here. If the government takes a decision and increases the non-SEZ area, then surely the youth of Vidarbha will get employment.
