Tightening of Bidding Norms by NHAI

New Delhi: April 28, 2010

 

With a view to accelerate implementation of projects, amendments have been carried out in RFQ/RFP documents by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (vide O.M. No. NH.37015/1/2009-Highwaysdated 09.04.2010) based on the recommendations of the NHAI Board made in their 77th meeting held on 19th March 2010.The norms have been amended to curb name-lending and for ensuring that the benefits accruing to a consortium are aligned with the equity structure to keep the non-performers/ black-listed entities out; curb intentional or accidental accumulation of the projects by bidders, who may overstretch themselves with resultant difficulty in securing financing.

The changes include introducing of net worth criterion for the consortium as a whole and for each member of Consortium who shall now have a minimum net-worth of 12.5% of total project cost (TPC) in the immediately preceding financial year. For the consortium as a whole, the following is the net worth criterion prescribed:

 

        For Projects with TPC value of less than Rs.2000 Crore- a [combined] minimum Net-worth requirement of 25% of the TPC value.

        For Projects with TPC value of Rs.2000 Cr or more but less than Rs.3000 Cr – a [combined] minimum Net-worth requirement of Rs. 500 Crores plus 50% of the amount by which the TPC value exceeds Rs.2000 Cr.

        For Projects with TPC value of Rs.3000 Cr or more– a [combined] minimum Net-worth requirement of, Rs. 1000 Crores plus 100 % of the amount by which the TPC value exceeds Rs.3000 Cr."

It has also been made mandatory that the Applicant/Consortium would provide an undertaking to NHAI that the EPC works of the project would be executed only by such EPC contractors who have completed at least a single package of more than 20% of the TPC or Rs. 500 cr. whichever is less. It is also decided that any change in the name(s) of EPC contractor(s) would be with prior consent of NHAI.

A clause has been added to the RFP document making the bidder ineligible for bidding if, for projects with TPC less than Rs.3000 crore, as on bid due date, the bidder, its member or any associate, either by itself or as member of a consortium has been declared by NHAI as the selected bidder for undertaking 3 (three) such projects and the bidder is yet to achieve financial closure. For projects with TPC in excess or equal to Rs.3000 crore, a bidder shall not be eligible for bidding if it has not achieved financial closure for two projects, as on bid due date, which has been awarded to it.

The new changes mandate that the experience score of the applicant shall be computed as a weighted average of the experience score of a member and his proposed equity stake (%) in the consortium. Similarly, the financial score of the applicant shall be computed as a weighted average of the financial score of a member and his proposed equity stake (%) in the consortium. It has been specified that the financial strength or the experience score taken into assessment will be only of those who contribute a minimum 26% share to the consortium.

This information was provided by Shri R.P.N.Singh, Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways in the Rajya Sabha today.

Agro-Meteorological Advisory Service

New Delhi: April 28, 2010

 

Realizing the need of more accurate weather information for agricultural management at smaller geographical scale, the Agro-meteorological Advisory services (AAS) rendered till 2008 by the National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting (NCMRWF) and the India Meteorological Department (IMD) are now integrated for its expanded outreach. The service is operated through the 130 agro-meteorological units covering all agro-climatic zones of the country.

Currently, AAS is operated twice a week (Tuesdays & Fridays) by disseminating day-to-day mean weather conditions for next 5-days, comprising forecast information on rainfall, cloud cover, maximum and minimum temperatures, wind speed and direction, to its 23 State Agro-meteorological Centres. At the agro-meteorological unit level, crop specific farmers advisories, based on the district level forecasts received from the state centres, are generated and disseminated by a duly constituted panel of experts through mass media communication systems. Agro-meteorological units are also provided with cumulative weekly rainfall.

In addition, a weekly National Agro-meteorological Advisory Bulletin is issued to the Ministry of Agriculture and other users with state-wise crop specific and region specific advisories based on the prevailing rainfall scenario and the coming week's rainfall forecast outlook for planning appropriate agronomic policy options.

This was stated by Shri Prithviraj Chavan, Minister of State (I/C) for Science and Technology and Earth Sciences in the Lok Sabha today.

Animal Cloning

New Delhi: April 28, 2010

 

The technology for the production of cloned animal is in the experimental stage. A project has been funded by National Agricultural Innovation Project/Indian Council of Agricultural Research on buffalo cloning in February 2009. The total approved cost of the project is Rs. 896.51 lakhs and it will be completed in June 2012.

 

The National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI), Karnal has produced two cloned buffalo calves (i) first cloned buffalo calf was born on February 6, 2009 but died in a week's time due to pneumonia and (ii) second calf was born on June 06, 2009 and is growing well. Both cloned calves were born through a novel hand guided cloning technology.

 

The farmers would be benefited through the production of faster multiplication of elite male and female animals. Further, this technology is likely to result in making available quality semen for artificial insemination.

 

This was stated by Shri Prithviraj Chavan, the Minister of State (I/C) for Science and Technology and Earth Sciences in the Lok Sabha today.

Biotech Research for Development of New Crops

New Delhi: April 28, 2010

 

The Government is promoting research in Biotechnology to develop crops that can sustain limited water conditions or consume less water. Indian Council of Agricultural Research and other institutions are engaged primarily to develop transgenic rice, mustard and tomato with improved resistance to drought. Recently, few other crops have been added namely cotton, groundnut, chickpea and pigeon pea and transgenic as well as molecular breeding approaches are being used under these efforts. A progrmme has also been initiated on Allele Mining for discovery of new genes useful for developing improved crop genotypes.

 

No special allocation of funds has been made for this purpose. Such research is being supported under various schemes related to Agricultural Biotechnology.

 

Few Genes responsive to water deficit conditions have been identified and institutions are making efforts to transfer them into crops and assess their utility. Preliminary studies on rice pyramided with Quantitative Trait Loci for root traits and water use efficiency showed that it could be grown using reduced quantity of water. Such material ahs been developed by integrating conventional approaches with marker assisted breeding. In some cases, transgenics have also been developed which are at different stages of testing.

 

This was stated by Shri Prithviraj Chavan, the Minister of State (I/C) for Science and Technology and Earth Sciences in the Lok Sabha today.

Heat Wave across the Country

New Delhi: April 28, 2010

 

Severe heat wave conditions (6-7oC above normal) persisted over Orissa and Jharkhand as short spells (few days) during 2nd and 3rd week of April. Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Rajasthan experienced severe heat wave conditions during (8-12 and 15-20 April); Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand during 8-12 April 2010. Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Vidarbha and Gujarat region also experienced heat wave conditions during 3rd week of the April. The maximum temperature in Kerala was appreciably above normal (3-4ºC above normal) during second week of March and second and third week of April. However, this is not considered as severe heat wave conditions. Reasons for the heat wave conditions are:

(i)                  Western disturbance activity this year blocked the cold air incursion from the hills of north India leading to the persistence of anomalous anti-cyclonic flow over northwest and central India which caused warming. This warming, when combined with lack of moisture and also cloudless clear sky resulted in persistent high temperatures.

(ii)                Over other parts of the country, lack of moisture transport resulted in to the suppression of thunderstorm activity which helps to reduce the temperature.

A significant increase in the frequency, persistence and spatial coverage of heat wave/ severe heat wave conditions have been observed during the recent decades of 1991-2000 and 2001-2010 as compared to earlier decades 1971-80 and 1981-90.

India Meteorological Department (IMD) issues heat wave warnings (48 hours in advance) to concerned state governments and their disaster management authorities. Beginning February 2010, IMD has started displaying prognosticated maximum temperature anomalies on weekly and monthly basis on its website. Specific remedial actions are taken by various State Governments.

This was stated by Shri Prithviraj Chavan, Minister of State (I/C) for Science and Technology and Earth Sciences in the Lok Sabha today.

Impact on Rising Sea Level

New Delhi: April 28, 2010

 

The holistic data of sea level reveals a high variability along the Indian coastline. The analysis of past tide gauge records for the Indian coastline regions gives an average sea level rise of 1.29 mm/year for the last 40 years. The local sea level rise at various places from the Indian Tide gauge data indicated the observed trends during the past century, details of which are given below:

i.                     Cochin (1939-1991) = 1.2 mm/year

ii.                   Vishakhapatnam (1937-1991) = 0.9 mm/year

iii.                  Mumbai (1870-1990) = 0.8 mm/year

iv.                 Sunderban (1985-2000) = 3.14 mm/year

Sea level rise is a relatively slow phenomenon occurring in the background of more dramatic manifestations like storm surges and tidal variations, normal deltaic subsidence, coastal erosion and siltation of river channels along the coastline. The Kerala coast and Lakshadweep islands have been facing coastal erosion. However, it has not been established that this erosion is only due to rise in sea level.

Survey of India has established 26 tide gauges that includes 2 gauge stations respectively along the Kerala coast and the Lakshadweep Islands. All of these tide gauge stations are transmitting data in real time to the Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS), Hyderabad under the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES). Appropriate protection measures arising out of the coastal erosion are addressed jointly by respective state governments and the Central Water Commission.

This was stated by Shri Prithviraj Chavan, Minister of State (I/C) for Science and Technology and Earth Sciences in the Lok Sabha today.

Coastal Pollution

New Delhi: April 28, 2010

 

The Ministry of Earth Sciences is implementing a Nationally coordinated research programme on "Coastal Ocean Monitoring and Prediction System" (COMAPS) to assess the health of the Indian coastal waters. Under COMAPS programme, the levels of pollutants are monitored at 76 locations along the Indian coast including the Andaman and Nicobar and the Lakshadweep Islands.

The chemical changes, other than the nutrients, observed were: (i) Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and (ii) pH at several locations. The level of DO has decreased at Porbandar, Mangalore, Tuticorin, Mandapam, Ennore and Visakhapatnam. The data collected under COMAPS programme are periodically submitted to the Central Pollution Control Board and concerned State Pollution Control Boards. The Sewage Treatment Plants and Common Effluent Treatment Plants are being setup to treat the municipal waste and industrial effluents in order to contain pollution in the sea. Along Veli in Kerala, the pH was initially very low due to discharge of industrial effluent which has now increased to reach normal level. The concentration of mercury in the sediment, at all the locations along the shore, has shown a decreasing trend over the years, indicating decrease of mercury in the industrial effluents discharged into the sea.

This was stated by Shri Prithviraj Chavan, Minister of State (I/C) for Science and Technology and Earth Sciences in the Lok Sabha today.
