“…Tamil Nadu is recognized for its ability to combine high levels of economic growth with human development and reductions in poverty (Dreze and Sen, 2013;Kalaiyarasan, 2014). 8 This relatively inclusive growth process has been attributed to its long history of State welfare policies driven by competitive populism, which in turn has been attributed to the Dravidian movement initiated by the lower castes seeking equality of opportunity (Pandian, 2011;Wyatt, 2013). Recent policies include strengthening of the universal Public Distribution System (PDS) (subsidized food) with free monthly distribution of 20 kg of rice and other essential provisions since 2006; distribution of computers to children enrolled in higher secondary and above; cattle to rural households; a universal health insurance scheme; welfare schemes targeted at specific segments of the population such as pensions for the elderly, widows and destitute women.…”

This paper contributes to the emerging literature on state rescaling by examining how processes of restructuring in late transitioning countries like India shape spaces of collective action for labour. India’s subnational States, which have become increasingly critical scales for shaping processes of economic restructuring, face competing governance imperatives. On one hand, they must offer a business-friendly environment, including cheap labour, in order to attract private investments. On the other hand, in a democratic polity, they are compelled to secure political power through electoral appeal to labour. Through a study of labour regimes in the southern State of Tamil Nadu, I argue that subnational governments have responded to this challenge by enabling a scale of labour governance that undermines labour’s ability to engage with new spaces of collective action opened up by reforms and globalization. Rather, the State subsidizes labour through welfare provisioning in their residential spaces even as it draws upon inter-State migrant labour that wields less electoral power.

Dairy farming has emerged as most important alternative for diversification of agriculture in Odisha. The problems perceived by the livestock owners should be taken into consideration while formulation of strategies for enhancing milk production in the state. Keeping this in view, the present study was conducted in villages Sambalpur district of Odisha. Based on the data analysis the strengths, weaknesses, opportunity and Threats of the dairy sector development in Sambalpur were identified. The finding of the Study would be very helpful for all the concerned stakeholders who are working for the Dairy development in the state. The problems perceived by the livestock owners should be taken into consideration while formulation of strategies for enhancing milk production in the state. Weekly milk payment system and regular payment of bonus provided by the co-operatives, educated board members with diversified experience and knowledge in the dairy sector, dairy farming is a livelihood occupation of the majority of the rural population , regular and guaranteed supply of raw milk from the milk co-operative societies , suitability with respect to ecological conditions for dairy development are the weaknesses. Milk shed area is scattered with less membership and members producing miniscule quantities, low price for milk as compared to other private companies , low productivity of animals and high cost of milk production, lack of support services , milk collection centres are not well equipped, limited market coverage due to less procurement as compared to private players, lack of structured and clear benefit packages, low level of milk procurement and insufficient raw milk supply for milk processing plants. More producers willing to join the co-operatives societies, developing infrastructure like processing equipment, etc growing milk demand scope for convergence with allied departments and substantial scope for modernization were the opportunities. Decline of grazing lands due to urbanization , increasing cost of inputs, the high cost of credit for dairy farmers, farmers losing interest in dairy farming , lack of financial assistance for dairy enterprise, existence of competition from other private units, lack of appropriate government policy favouring the dairy sector were the threats. The major production constraints were high incidence of diseases, lesser availability of nutritious feed, high interest rate on loans, high cost of input, inadequate credit, delay in sanction of crop loan, uncertain weather and high labour charge. The marketing constraints were price fluctuation, illegal deduction, market is far from production point, high cost of transportation and malpractices in weighing.
