 The Hindu : Procurement shift to solve bajra row
With 2003-4 marking another year of glut in bajra production, the State may not be in a position to sustain the current procurement policy in view of the possibility of confrontation with farmers over increasing supplies and the shrinking demand in coming years.
Tough the per capita production of bajra in the State has declined from 80 kg in 1970-71 to 30 kg in 2001-2 and its crop area reduced by 10 per cent during the triennium ending 2001-2, the trend of growth of productivity is continuing.
On the other hand, the alternate use of bajra can be developed by producing feed for poultry and cattle and evolving products in the health food category for the urban population.

Walking alongside the bajra in an elegant red sari was Nandita Palchoudhuri, the curator who oversaw the design and construction of the bajra in Chandannagar under Sridhar Das.

The FCI did not involve itself in the procurement of bajra in Haryana unlike Rajasthan, where it is actively involved in procurement.
Since bajra is available much below the MSP in Rajasthan, many a trader brought bajra from the desert state to sell it to the Haryana procurement agencies at the MSP.
The FCI has decided to auction bajra, which cannot be stored for long, purchased by the state agencies in the open market, where its price ranges from Rs 400 per quintal to Rs 450 per quintal against the MSP of Rs 505 per quintal.

The idea of taking the festival to India and joining up London and Calcutta and generally helping to beautify the waterfront in the West Bengal capital is apparently that of George Nicolson, one of the trustee of the Thames Festival.
The bajra will light up between two landmarks on the Thames, the Oxo Tower, where people with more money than sense go for a drink, and the London Eye, the massive millennium wheel which affords a panoramic view of the capital.
