Vijayawada: Chief minister Chandrababu Naidu directed officials to take swift action to restore and revitalize the AP Fiber Net project. He charged that the previous government had completely derailed the AP Fiber Net project, a visionary initiative launched between 2014 and 2019. Reviewing the progress of AP Fibernet activities here on Monday, the chief minister asked the officials to assess the challenges, financial constraints, necessary corrective steps, and new policy directions. He said that the system, designed to benefit the public, students, and government departments, was exploited for political purposes by the previous govt. He pointed out that while there were 8.70 lakh connections before 2019, was dropped to 4.50 lakh during the YSRCP regime. "We managed the organization effectively with just 130 employees and provided over 8 lakh connections. But the YSRCP government created unauthorized posts to accommodate its party workers, expanding the workforce from 130 to 1,350 and misusing public funds. This was a new form of corruption where party affiliates were placed in government roles and used for political work. The fiber network was no exception.

The chief minister approved the integration of AP Fiber Net with the BharatNet (Amended BharatNet Programme – ABP). Under this scheme, the Centre will allocate Rs. 1,900 crore to AP Fiber Net from 2025 to 2035. He also approved the transition of fiber networks in 1692 gram panchayats across Chittoor and Visakhapatnam districts from linear to ring architecture.

RS Software starts work to integrate global payments systems

Kolkata: Tech giant RS Software (India) Ltd, that had built the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) platform in 2015, is now working on a global payments integration platform to facilitate international trade flows. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The company is also planning to invest over Rs 100 crore over the next five years to bolster the payments network system across the country. Raj Jain, CEO and MD of the company, said: "As UPI gains global recognition, govt has negotiated several bilateral agreements with different countries for the Indian diaspora to be able to pay for their purchases in those countries with UPI. We have worked with NPCI to execute many of these bilateral payment platforms' integration." RS Software is currently looking at bilateral payment platforms' integration in 10 countries, including the UAE, Singapore and France. Samik Roy, the newly appointed COO, will oversee the integration process. In 2024, the value of cross-border payment transactions was $162 trillion. Cross-border payments are challenged by issues like high fees, slow settlement times and poor transparency, making international transactions cumbersome and expensive. "This is where the opportunity is huge to help connect digital payment networks to facilitate global trade flows and make it easy for lower-value cross-border payments," said Jain. After the UPI platform launch, RS Software built the bill payments platform and in 2019 delivered the enterprise fraud and risk platform for the country.

India, US Finalise Interim Trade Deal: GM Crops Rejected, Tariffs Realigned – What It Means For Exports, Innovation And Farmers

New Delhi: India and the United States are set to sign an interim trade agreement this week, covering key areas such as agriculture, processed foods and industrial tariffs. The deal has been finalised after months of negotiations between both countries. India has agreed to reduce tariffs on certain U.S. agricultural imports, including apples, nuts like blueberries and blackberries and selected processed food products. However, New Delhi has made it clear that there will be no agreement on genetically modified (GM) crops. According to officials, GM crops remain a red line due to domestic concerns and upcoming trade talks with the European Union (EUFTA). The deal includes a tariff structure where Indian goods entering the United States will face an average tariff of 11.5%, while U.S. goods entering India will face a 7% tariff. India has also refused a blanket tariff approach on automobiles. Instead, it has asked for separate slabs based on vehicle type and category. The United States is said to have accepted this proposal. There is also no agreement on dairy products. The United States had pushed for broader access to India's dairy market, but India has not accepted this, citing the potential impact on small farmers and rural incomes. Only processed dairy items will be allowed under the agreement. The deal comes at a time when the US is revising its trade approach with several countries. President Donald Trump has announced higher tariffs on exports from the European Union (EU), Japan, South Korea, Mexico and other nations, starting August 1. India is seen as a key trade partner in this changing environment. Meanwhile, a report by SBI Research suggests that India could benefit from this realignment. The study says India has a comparative advantage in chemical exports, including pharmaceuticals. If New Delhi captures just 2% of the U.S. chemical import market, this could add 0.2% to India's GDP. The report also highlights opportunities in the textile and apparel sectors. If India increases its share in the U.S. apparel market by 5%, it could add another 0.1% to GDP. India is also reviewing its Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with ASEAN countries. The aim is to address tariff gaps and prevent large-scale dumping of goods from countries like China through ASEAN partners. However, the SBI report also warns about potential risks to the Indian dairy sector. If the sector were opened to U.S. dairy imports, milk prices could fall by 15%, causing an estimated income loss of Rs 1.03 lakh crore to farmers. It could also result in a Rs 51,000 crore loss to India's gross value added (GVA), with major effects on rural employment. Final talks on the interim deal are expected to conclude this week. Officials from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry have already reached Washington for the signing. The agreement is part of broader trade discussions that may continue in the coming months.
