Local poultry industry inching towards self-sufficiency'Rates remain under check without CAPD gaze'

KharOF general elections postponed

GK News NetworK

Srinagar, Sep 10: Owing to the prevailing situation in Kashmir, KHAROF has cancelled its notification dated 20/8/2016 issued for its General Elections.

The hoteliers’ federa-tion (KHAROF) today in a statement said: “Owing to the prevailing situa-tion in Kashmir, notifica-tion dated 20/8/2016 for its general elections is hereby cancelled.”

‘This is pursuant to the consensus evolved in the Special Executive Committee Meeting held on 30/08/2016 at 11 AM at Hotel York Dalgate,” it said

“Further, it was resolved in the meeting that the program vis-à-vis holding general elections would be decided upon in formal Executive Commit-tee Meeting of the Federa-tion while forming it as a point of agenda of the said meeting which might take place by or before last week of October 2016,” it said.

Accordingly, a revised Notification about the election programme would be issued as per the decisions to be arrived at in the aforesaid meeting, it said.

All the Executive Com-mittee Members and Gen-eral Body Members of the Federation “are therefore requested to update their information on the sub-ject,” it said.

LMD books company for violating labelling requirementsImposes Rs 2 lakh fine

GK News NetworK

Srinagar, Sep 10: Legal Metrology depart-ment has booked a multinational company manufacturing electronic goods for alleg-edly violating the relevant laws.

As per a handout issued here, “during an inspection, a wholesale dealer in Downtown locality here was found offer-ing sale of the electronic product Hair Straightener carrying the mandatory declarations in violation of Legal Metrol-

ogy (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 2011.“Under the aforesaid Rules, the

mandatory declarations such as MRP, Net Contents, Name and address of manufacturer, name of product, month and year of manufacturer, etc., should be prominent and legible so that con-sumer can easily read them and make a rational choice of purchase.

“The font size of the mandatory dec-larations was so small that it was not readable,” it said.

LMD Inspector Shabir Ahamad

booked the company through the dealer. “The matter was taken up with the man-agement of the company through a legal notice. The company confessed the lapse and assured the department that they shall be highly careful in future while printing mandatory declarations on the label in the specified fonts.

“The Deputy Controller, Legal Metrol-ogy (Consumer Protection) Kashmir held seven Directors of the firm responsible for the lapse and a penal sum of Rs 2 lakh was slapped for the lapse,” it said.

Srinagar, Sep 10: As out-side chicken supply dried up in the wake restrictions in Kashmir, the home-grown poultry industry showed resilience catering to the local demand.

As per poultry traders, the chicken prices in Kash-mir used to hover around Rs 130 to 150 a kg around this time, but since the uprising in Kashmir over two months ago, the rates of chicken have remained stable at around 90 to 110 per kg.

This, as per the poultry traders is largely due to the availability of local produc-tion and cancellation of marriage functions in large numbers which has kept the price under check.

“Usually what happens when you are dependent on outside supplies, the price is determined by the outside suppliers. But once you are self-sufficient in production, the prices remain under check which is good for consumers,” said a senior Animal Husbandry official.

“The increase in poultry production over the years is being seen as step closer

to self-sufficiency as our local production caters to around 80 percent of demand in Kashmir,” he added.

President of Kashmir Valley Poultry Farm-ers Association, Ghulam Muhammad states that despite the hurdles created by the government, “the poultry farmers are leading poultry sector towards self-sufficiency.”

“If you compare prices, for most part of this unrest they remained below Rs 100 a kg which is because of the

fact that local farmers are aware about the situation and are selling chicken on lesser margin, even some-times on loss so that people don’t suffer.

“CAPD has not issued any rate list for last two months, but still rates have remained stable,” he said, while accusing the gov-ernment of “hobbling the growth in the local poultry industry.”

“It is a known fact that Kashmir Poultry sector is dependent on outside hatch-eries for supplying day old

chicks that are reared in Kash-mir. But since the unrest, the government forces are stopping their supply which has now started hurting us,” he added.

“The import of day old chicks has been impacted. A chick takes 30 days to become a full grown Chicken. But lack of day old chicks might cause shortage

of chicken in days to come,” he said.

Meanwhile, the decline in the prices during the unrest has been welcomed by the consumers. “Since hundreds of wedding orders were cancelled so the price drop in chicken is understandable. Chicken in last few days in the retail market is being sold at almost Rs 100 per kilo against the Rs 130- Rs 150 per kg prior to the unrest which has benefited the consumers,” said local con-sumers.

The subscribers par-ticularly the students said: “BSNL mobile tele-phony and landlines are totally non-functional here and in some areas of Hajin.”

The aggrieved said that since the unrest started in Kashmir, the BNSL servic-es “have gone from bad to worse.”

“We are left high and dry by the blocking of the mobile and broadband services in these days by the company,”

Ishfaq Hussain, a local said.T h e l o c a l s s a i d

they have many times approached the officials at the BSNL exchange here with their griev-ances “but our pleas have fallen on deaf ears.”

Many locals complained that they are not denied fresh connections. “When we approach the exchange

here for new SIM cards or new broadband connection we are being told to get them either from Baramulla or from Srinagar, when they are easily avail-

able at respective exchange offices in other districts,” the residents said.

D e s p i t e r e p e a t e d attempts, no BSNL official was available for the com-ment.

When contacted Divi-sional Commissioner Kash-mir, Baseer Khan assured that the services would be restored by tomorrow.
