New Delhi: March 9, 2010

EEPC INDIA (formerly Engineering Export Promotion Council),  apex body
of engineering exporters kicked off a series of 22 Buyer – Seller
Meets (BSMs) across seven locations (New Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai,
Mumbai, Bangalore, Ludhiana and Ahmedabad) from 8th to 12th March
2010.  In the first BSM of the series, nearly 100 Indian companies in
the engineering sector had direct business talks with their
counterparts from USA, Canada, Europe and CIS countries. 30 buyers
from USA, Canada, Turkey, France, Slovenia, Spain, Bulgaria, Spain,
Armenia and Ukraine etc. attended the first BSM in New Delhi.

Shri Arvind Mehta, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Commerce & Industry,

in bringing the buyers to India and said that the efforts would
specifically benefit the MSME sector. Shri Mehta said that this kind
of series is a wonderful format of getting Buyers and Sellers
together.  He further pointed out that the current global economic
scenario is still a cause of concern.

The engineering sector is the largest segment of the overall Indian
industrial sector. The engineering industry accounts for 12 per cent
of India's GDP. In the year 2005-06, the total net value added by the
Engineering Industry in India was US $ 25 billion. Engineering goods
enjoy 30.5 per cent weight in the Index of Industrial Production; 29.9
per cent share of total investment; and 62.8 per cent share in foreign
collaborations. The important groups within the engineering industry
include machinery & instruments, primary and semi-finished iron &
steel, steel bars & rods, non-ferrous metals, electronic goods and
project exports.

Shri S C Ralhan, Northern Region Chairman, EEPC, said that the BSMs
have been organized in such a fashion that manufacturing abilities of
India is highlighted in the best possible manner, and all industrial
centres get a focus. He also emphasised that the BSMs will
particularly help SMEs who otherwise have limited means to explore
overseas markets and participate in various international exhibitions.
"Today, engineering exports constitute the single largest commodity in
India's merchandise exports comprising a fifth of India's total
exports", he added.

Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation
Parliamentary Consultative Committee for Housing & Urban Poverty
Alleviation and Tourism Ministry meets to discuss JNNURM
New Delhi: March 9, 2010

The Minister of Housing & Urban Poverty Alleviation and Tourism Kumari
Selja has said that in order to address infrastructure shortage and
basic Amenities needs of the urban poor living in slums in the urban
areas, Government of India had launched Jawaharlal Nehru National
Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) with effect from 3rd December 2005.
Under Basic Services to the Urban Poor Sub-Mission and Integrated
Housing and Slum Development Programme components of JNNURM, her
Ministry has sanctioned 1330 projects for construction of about 15
lakh houses along with basic amenities to the urban poor, including
slum dwellers. Addressing the Consultative Committee Meeting attached
to her Ministries here today she said, the project cost approved is
more than Rs. 34,900 crores. The Additional Central Assistance (ACA)
committed is about Rs. 19,245 crores. She said, release of ACA so far
is about Rs. 7, 865 crores against the Mid-Term target of 5 lakh
houses set to be in progress or completed, about 6.9 lakh houses come
to such stages.

She said, a framework for Third Party Inspection and Monitoring (TPIM)
is established to ensure quality in project execution for BSUP and
IHSDP projects and so far 9 States have established TPIM. The Minister
said, her Ministry has also recently established a central TPIM
mechanism independent of that by State Governments. She said, it is
also decide to set up an independent social audit and public
accountability mechanism for BSUP and IHSDP components of JNNURM to
ensure that the benefits of the projects sanctioned reach the intended
poor beneficiaries and the projects are implemented in a participatory
manner involving the poor. Kumari Selja said, a Social Audit Tool Kit
and Manual for Conduct of Social Audit have been prepared to guide
State Governments.

The Minister said, taking into account the institutional and
professional capacity constraints at State and Urban Local body level,
her Ministry has provided financial support to States/UTs under BSUP &
IHSDP for setting up of Programme Management Units at State level and
Project Implementation Units (PIUs) at the cities/ULBs levels to
monitor BSUP, IHSDP and other urban Poverty Alleviation schemes. She
said, so far 25 PMUs and 108 PIUs have been approved.

The Minister said, learning from the experience of JNNURM the
Government is now considering a new scheme called Rajiv Awas Yojana
for the slum dwellers and the urban poor aimed at making India
slum-free. Under this scheme support would be extended to States
willing to assign property rights to slum dwellers.

Members of the Consultative Committee wanted involvement of Members of
Parliament in projects implementation and monitoring committees to
oversee the proper utilization of resources and money. They also
wanted that there should be proper coordination between the Union
Government and State Governments in housing schemes for the urban poor
as several States also have their own housing schemes for the urban
poor. Those who attended the meeting include Shri A.T. Nana Patil, Dr.
Charles Dias, Shri Jagdambika Pal, Shri Khiladilal Bairwa, Shri P.C.
Gaddigoudar, Shri P.T. Thomas, Shri Sripad Yesso Naik and Shri
