India Corporate Week 2009 concludes

Assam News · December 22, 2009

With the President of India, Smt. Pratibha Devisingh Patil, exhorting the leaders of Industry to explore the many complementarities that exist between rural enterprises and the corporate world, the first ever ‘India Corporate Week’ (14 December-21December) concluded in New Delhi on Monday. Addressing the concluding function of the ‘India Corporate Week 2009’ at Vigyan Bhawan the President said, “Industry must explore the many complementarities that exist between rural enterprises and the corporate world. This needs to be undertaken in a farmer friendly approach that takes into account sensitivities of the farmers and keeps their interests in the forefront.” Smt. Pratibha Devisingh Patil said that some Indian companies have understood that linking farmers to processing industries would be beneficial to both. They have developed interesting models of engagement with the farming community, the President said.

“We can draw lessons from these experiences, as we look at options of harnessing the potential of village economies. It is farmer centric and farmer supported systems of production and marketing, that will make for durable arrangements. Farmers will need to be convinced that they can be owners of the means of production, as well as partners in production and marketing methods, in a way that would benefit them. It is this trust that will trigger a chain of action for innovative production architecture”, the President said. Smt. Pratibha Devisingh Patil expressed confidence that, “Corporate India would enthusiastically come forward to take up this challenging task. I conclude by expressing my appreciation for the dialogue initiated between the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and the Corporate Sector on issues that are of concern, in order to bring the focus on ensuring that corporate growth is inclusive. India’s standing as a rising economic power is closely linked with how we can create opportunities for all. A path that excludes millions of Indians from prosperity, is simply not acceptable. India as the world’s largest democracy attracts a lot of attention. The Corporate Sector as it extends its operations around the globe, must also play an active role in the nation’s socio-economic development, including agriculture.”

The theme of ‘India Corporate Week 2009’ was: Corporate Sector and Inclusive Growth. For it the Ministry had joined hands with various business chambers and the three professional institutes – CII, FICCI, ASSOCHAM, PHD Chambers, Bombay Chambers, ICSI, ICAI, ICWAI, IICA and NFCG for reaching out to the stakeholders including the general public to showcase the contribution of corporate sector.

Shri Salman Khurshid, Minister of Corporate Affairs, presided over the function. He acknowledged the corporate growth and its contribution in taking the benefits of developments to a larger section of the society. While enumerating the initiatives of the Ministry in providing an enabling environment to the corporate sector to flourish, Shri Khurshid underlined the various developmental challenges which need to be addressed while celebrating the corporate growth. He emphasized the need for collaborative solution in which the Government, the business sector, the civil society organizations and the common citizens need to partner. Shri Salman Khurshid also released a compendium on ‘Corporate Sector 2009’ and voluntary guidelines on Corporate Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility. He urged the corporate sector to adopt these guidelines which would facilitate the process of value generation flowing to a larger section of society.

The Secretary of Corporate Affairs Ministry, Shri R. Bandyopadhyay, in his welcome address expressed gratitude to the President of India for sparing her valuable time to grace the occasion. He stated that India Corporate Week was organized in a period of only 37 days and this became possible with the support and enthusiasm of the partner organizations. Briefly discussing the initiatives of the Ministry in e-governance, investor protection and enlightened regulations, Shri Bandyopadhyay stated that the Ministry endeavors to work in a consultative mode and takes into account the views and suggestions from all stakeholders in the implementation of its various initiatives.

The President of ASSOCHAM, Dr. Swati Piramal; President of FICCI, Shri Harsh Pati Singhania; and President – Designate of CII, Shri Hari Bhartia also addressed the function.

Dear all of my well wiser,
Dear friend’s, actually I’m 100 percent victim, so I went to knowing my matter all the Indian and others. I write my matter to all M.P., M.L.A., Minister in W.B., CBI, CID, Human rights department, AAP KI KACHEHRI – KIRAN KE SAATH, Kolkata Police, my nation, all of the news channels, and all press, and many more, absolutely you also, But nobody help me, I think you can help me, so I write to you. I’m 100 percent victim but no body come to me. My question is why they not come to my house? I screw up to claim that I am as white as snow. Sir, If you don’t brook intervention then our family &especially my small daughter’s life will be ruined.
I determined that if any reporter / any person come to my house then they know that I am 100 percent victim. And I win the case. I’m Punishment + harassment Without Crime.

With kindest regards,
