   Actress Richa Chadda along with another talented actor of Bollywood Industry Saurabh Shukla were witnessed in Nation’s Capital for the promotions of their upcoming romantic political thriller film ‘Daas Dev’. Along with them actor Rahul Bhat and director Sudhir Mishra were also present in the press conference held in Hotel Le Meridien. As their film is scheduled for release on the coming 20th April, therefore the entire team interacted with media and shared their experiences and views about the movie.
   While talking about the challenges Richa faced while portraying her character of Paro in the film, she stated, “Challenges are always there especially for the movie or stories which were adapted few times and everyone knew this character was portrayed by big artists as well, so yes it was challenging, but I must say this movie is different, holding a new motive and a believable adaptation. This Paro is bit tough, I don’t feel like nowadays Paro will cry for her Dev and will run after him in a saree. She has her own style and attitude, she rides her own scooty and bikes, showcasing her dignity and respect. Its an ego thing, we won’t judge her whether she is right or wrong. This movie is a great adaptation and I am sure people will like this film.”
  On the other hand, the director of the film Sudhir Mishra shared his views on the film, he said, “I feel like this movie will target all kind of audience. Every Indian understands politics and its addiction so I think this is the most accessible of my films. And there is no problem of understanding at all. The subtext of the film, that you can fix everything your relations, work but you can’t fix love. It’s a powerful story of political addiction where love is not possible, and how you overcome your addiction and see the positive side of love.” Whereas, Saurabh Shukla and Rahul Bhat also seemed confident about their upcoming flick.
   Well, featured under the banner of Storm Motion Pictures and Saptarishi Cinevision Production, ‘Daas Dev’ also features Aditi Rao Hydari, Vineet Kumar Singh and Dalip Tahil in complex supporting roles along with Anil George, Deepraj Rana, Saurabh Tyagi with Anurag Kashyap in a guest appearance.

Let’s talk about goats: Boosting India’s goat sector could double rural incomes

New Delhi, 16 April 2018 – The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) is partnering with the Government of India, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Agri-solutions, to host a two-day conference starting today to discuss how to significantly improve the goat sector in rural areas, specifically in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Odisha states.

Raising goats is an income-generating activity that has enormous potential to increase incomes and improve nutrition for resource poor households, especially in remote, tribal and ecologically vulnerable areas. It is an activity that requires minimal investment and input costs. Goats are also prolific breeders and have a good survival rate in drought prone areas.

India has the second largest global goat population and has the potential to increase its role and profits in the lucrative global goat market.

Building a vibrant goat sector in India is critical to reducing poverty, meeting the Sustainable Development Goals and India’s own rural development goal of doubling farmers’ income by 2022. In this context, the conference will bring together international technical experts and national policymakers. Krishna Raj, Minister of State, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare, will deliver the keynote address. 

“We can really have an impact on poverty reduction because we can demonstrate that we can double smallholder producers’ incomes by improving their goat production and by connecting them to the increasing market demand for mutton and goat meat,” said Antonio Rota, IFAD’s Lead Technical Specialist on Livestock.

“There are various parties that are ready to invest. We would like to help producers and interested parties come together and create the kinds of lasting partnerships that support goat producers and allow them access to the untapped market as equal partners. IFAD is specialized in brokering public, private, producer partnerships. We can make a change by helping rural communities develop and improve the goat sector,” Rota added. 

The two-day event will be followed by a learning route which will include visits to locations that host the latest developments in the goat sector in the country – innovative health service delivery, commercial farming, modern processing, and links to markets.
