t h e y e a r . . . . . . a t a g l a n c e

The year 2010-11 was a period of

challenges & turmoil for India, and yet

it had its share of heartening moments.

Be it the scams, tapes and leaks, the unrest

that virtually closed the Kashmir valley for

four months, the naxal disturbances or the

shameful Mirchpur incident in Haryana;

all pointed to the imperative for good

governance, inclusive growth and engaging

youth gainfully.

The global scenario too was not very different

with the turmoil in the Arab world, the

tsunami devastation and the nuclear crisis in

Japan. However, the release of Aung San Suu

Kyi in Burma did bring some cheer. Other

‘feel good’ events included the CWG medal

tally powered by the Haryana hurricanes,

The Right to Education Act coming into

force, launch of the UID project. It was also

a year that underscored the need for carefully

conserving environment, in light of the

tsunami and the Leh flash floods.

For us in the Northern region, all these

inspired our work for the year. In all our

engagements with the government, we

stressed on good governance. Skills, Youth

engagement, Sustainability, working with

society were our priority.

The CII Northern region rose to the occasion

following the Leh disaster. In addition to

providing immediate relief in 21 locations,

CII undertook to rebuild 13 houses in Saboo

village, 2 of which were handed over to the

beneficiaries by the Union Home Minister,

Mr P Chidambaram in November.

There were many firsts in the region.

At the largest Buyer Seller meet organised

by the region – the Industrial Expo, 07

large manufacturing companies shared

their purchase requirements & vendor

qualifications with nearly 700 MSMEs. Buyer

Seller Meets held in Gurgaon, Jaipur and

Chandigarh, facilitated interaction between

50 buyers and 100 member companies.

The region launched its first Skills Centre

in Parwanoo in May 2010. The 2nd Skill

Development Centre is on the anvil in

Rajasthan. District wise Skill Gap studies

were conducted for J&K, Delhi and Haryana,

as also a study on skill gaps in Retail sector

in North India.

Though the Manpower mix study conducted

in the region says we are doing well – of

the 4.4 lakh people employed by members

included in the Study, 22% belonged to SC/

ST category, I believe we have miles to go.

This year we trained around 1000 persons

through skills programmes of CII & its

member companies. I believe that for a true

Inclusive growth, this effort would need to be

stepped up.

Two other special initiatives, inclusive in

nature, were Ability 2010 wherein CII helped

place 57 persons with physically challenges

you see throughout the Report and the list of

Studies brought out in the year, is testimony to

the powerful policy advocacy in the region.

We launched our fourth Yi Chapter in the

region – in Jammu two weeks back.

Our membership has registered a growth of

9.5% and we grew to a family of 2630. Vijay

and I met members in a series of formal and

informal interactions.

This is a just glimpse of the year gone by, the

details of which you will find in the following

pages.

I was guided and supported by the team that

I have had the privilege to work with – the

Regional Council, the State, Zonal, Sub-

Committee and Events chairpersons. True

to the CII values, the Past Presidents, Past

Chairmen, the CII President, Vice President

and the Director General gave good advice

and support. Vijay was indeed my partner in

whatever we could achieve this year.

I wish to sincerely thank my team at the

Northern Region – Charu and each member

for their tremendous commitment.

The coming year will hold its own challenges

& opportunities, and I am confident that CII

will continue to play a critical role in shaping

the future.

which provided a marketing platform for

products made by the underprivileged and

marginalised sections of the society.

On the Sustainability front, I am pleased

to share that the region walked the talk

by installing rain water harvesting in its

headquarters and the Lucknow office. Other

highlights were signing of the lease deed for

Water Institute in Jaipur and launch of the

Green Business Club.

Agriculture focus was reflected in the strong

outreach to 55,000 farmers through Agro Tech

& Agri Conclaves, special Kisan Goshthis, Jal

Sangram, progressive farmers’ and women

farmers’ participation.

Among the major events this year, I would

like to specially mention Ceraglass 2010,

which was country’s first comprehensive

show on Ceramics & Glass industry. Held in

association with the Rajasthan Government,

the show resulted in the Government

announcing setting up a 750 acre Ceramic &

Glass hub in the State.

Steel Mart 2010 brought steel manufacturers

to the large user industry in North India

and strengthening of their retail outlets. The

series of sessions on Family Business and

Leadership talks were much appreciated by

members.

Our engagement with Government was

strong, as always. The Policy dashboard that

CII Leh relief and rehabilitation task force

was set up to provide support, guidance and facilitate

implementation. Chaired by Mr Sunil Kant Munjal, Past

President, CII and Co-chaired by Mr Harpal Singh, Past

Chairman, CII Northern region, the team decided, on

request of Mr Tsering Angchuk, Deputy Commissioner, to

build totally damaged houses in Saboo village.

CII Leh relief & rehab operationThe Leh cloudburst brought about vast devastation sweeping away lives and homes. Responding immediately, CII stationed

a 4-member team for four months to oversee its relief & rehabilitation operations.

A 15-member team worked to mobilise 20 tons of immediate relief material worth Rs 1.2 crore, viz. dry ration

(sugar, tea, snacks, salt & fruits), hygiene kits, community tents, woolen clothing, blankets, kitchen utensils, solar lanterns &

battery lamps, water purification systems & tablets, medicines, hand-tools. These distributable materials were transported to

Ladakh mainly through the Indian Air Force carrier aircraft IL 76 and a Mahindra Swaraj truck.

The CII team was the first to reach 7 far flung villages by crossing a ropeway over Zanskar river as the roads had

been swept away. The relief material was distributed across 21 locations including the relief camps of Choglamsar,

village Saboo and Nimu and other far flung villages, like Skiu & Kaya.

Construction of Houses:

After due assessment, CII committed to

build the 13 totally damaged houses in

the village Saboo.

After many deliberations and

consultation, CII arrived at an improved

version of a traditional Ladakhi house.

• 325 sqft area comprised 1 large

Ladakhi kitchen, 1 smaller room and

an air-locking corridor

• Walls made with compressed earth

blocks stabilised with cement for

strength

• Double-glazed windows for

solarisation

• CGI sheets with EPS insulation,

instead of wooden roofs

Of these, 2 model houses were built during October &

November and were handed over to

the identified beneficiaries: Rigzin,

a 50-year-old single lady and her

85-year-old invalid mother; Shafi

Mohhamed, a constable in the J&K

Police. His wife gave birth to a baby

boy 20 days after their house was

washed away in the cloudburst.

Mr P Chidambaram, Union Home Minister, inaugurated the first house constructed by CII

in Saboo Village in Ladakh and handed

over the key to the first beneficiary on

30 October 2010.

The CII team left Leh temporarily in November and will be back in

April 2011 to build the balance 11 houses for which the material

has already been stored in the Community Centre in the village.

Concurrent to the house construction, CII will also plans to work

with the local communities to explore enhancing livelihood options.

CII Leh Relief and Rehabilitation Project is successful example

of partnership at work. CII member companies, as always,

contributed generously to the project. The J&K State Government and

the Deputy Commissioner of Leh were helpful in guiding our work.

Indian banks played a major role in cushioning the adverse impact of global recession in India. While the banks in the West have become cautious lenders after recession, Indian banks are providing loans freely. Highlighting the scenario in the Indian banking industry, Mr S Sridhar, Chairman & Managing Director, Central Bank of India said that the major challenge is to foresee the financial environment changes across the globe and plan in time. The major effort needed in such a situation is to ensure uninterrupted banking facilities to all.
