Rs.70,000 cr to boost shipbuilding.

The central government has cleared a Rs. 69,725 cr package to revitalise India's shipbuilding sector and reduce dependence on foreign ships.

The package will extend the Shipbuilding Financial Assistance Scheme, help launch a a National Shipbuilding Mission and set up a Maritime Development Fund. It is designed to boost domestic shipbuilding capacity and create substantial job and investment opportunities.

My take

A boost in the shipbuilding sector will have a cascading effect on all round development.


Tailpiece.

Got up at 5, sent all the morning messages, switched on the hymns on the home theatre, lit up the lamp in the puja room and opened up the house for the day.

Made our morning cuppa.

Nurse Ajitha had come by 7 for dressing up Lekha's wound and the Rajah Medical team had dropped by to collect my blood samples.

A quiet Thursday.
