Importing yarn from other countries was not only expensive but would also take one to two months to reach Pakistan, while imports from India would reach within three to four days.
Our prolific feature about Pakistan’s fascinating politics, economy, society, culture, cricket, fashion and more — stories beyond the routine headlines.
Indian Cotton Association's estimates say exports are now expected to touch 65 lakh bales this year against its June estimate of 40 lakh bales — a 63% improvement.
The USDA’s estimate in August shows India's cotton stockpiles reached 19.2 million US bales, while the Cotton Association of India shows stocks at 11.2 million US bales.
Farmers in Maharashtra’s cotton zone, Vidarbha, struggle due to lockdown, with many resorting to distress sale as unseasonal rains are affecting the quality of produce.
The rains will increase global output through India, the world's largest cotton producer, at a time prices have been near their weakest in more than 3 years.
In a country where a third of the population lives in cities, agriculture uses about 90% of fresh water in India, compared with 64% in China, 60% in Brazil, and 44% in Nigeria.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.

Writing it in points so people can digest it easily –
1. Exporting cotton/sugar/rice is like exporting your water. Let Pakistan grow these crops using their own water and make Sindh dry which will lead to strengthening of freedom movement in Sindh.
2. Make sure to hurt Pak economically, keeping Pak poor is in India’s best interest.
We must thank Imran for quashing all hopes of thawing of Indo Pak relations. Our sickulars and liberals were missing Pakistan since surgical strikes and with recent Galwan incident, China replaced Pakistan from our public imaginations. This gang was looking forward to old days to Track II and III diplomacy and the moolah which goes with it.
It is good that Pakistan has laid down the red lines for its relations with India as it gives clarity to them and to us. We have our red lines but on trade issues, we have no concerns. Anyway, Pakistan is buying Indian cotton and sugar via Dubai! so what the big deal!!
But one feels for the sickulars, leftist and liberals!!!

Religion not politics.
