Why Public-Private Partnership is critical to India’s food processing potential

Published by Parlour News

The Union Budget 2026 was a decisive moment for India’s food processing sector. With an allocation of ₹4,061.43 crore to the ministry of food processing industries, the government has reinforced its intent to transform agricultural abundance into economic value. The sector’s projected market size of $535 billion by the close of this financial year reflects both scale and strategic relevance to India’s growth ambitions. Food processing (Getty Images/iStockphoto) Capital at this scale creates the conditions to convert investment into performance. Government plays a critical role in providing capital, policy direction, and institutional frameworks. Industry complements this with market insight, quality discipline, and execution capability. When these strengths align, infrastructure is fully used, supply chains deepen and integrate, and farmers are able to capture a greater share of the value they generate. India’s food processing sector has demonstrated resilience, with Gross Value Added rising from ₹1.34 lakh crore in 2014-15 to ₹2.24 lakh crore in 2023-24. Processed food now accounts for 20.4% of agricultural exports, up from 13.7% a decade ago. However, post-harvest losses cost the …

5 min readUpdated: May 1, 2026 01:34 PM IST Glory review: Somewhere in Haryana, there are two brothers with a conflicted relationship with their father, circling around sweaty boxing rings, mustachioed khap leaders, ‘honour killings’: familiar elements in an seven-episode show called Glory, whose meaning is explained to us as Love, Sacrifice and Pain, in as many words. That little jerk you get every time a character with a strong Haryanvi accent says ‘glory’ never leaves us: it’s almost like the writers of the show want to convince themselves, as well as us, of the title they chose, because it never once sounds like a word that would come naturally to the key dramatis personae in Shaktigarh, the fictional town where ‘Glory’ is set. And that faint unease never goes away completely, even when we do come upon parts of the show which feel like they could have emerged from the ground, rather than a show constructed in a writer’s room. And one following the dictum which all shows these days faithfully hew to: there …

Cristiano Ronaldo’s son trains with Real Madrid academy amid potential move | Football News

3 min readMar 25, 2026 04:16 PM IST Cristiano Ronaldo’s eldest son took another step in his football development this week, training with Real Madrid’s academy as he eyes a potential move into the club’s youth system. A report in The Athletic said that the 15-year-old forward joined Madrid’s under-16 squad for a session on Tuesday, offering an early glimpse of what could be the next chapter in his progression. Ronaldo Jr currently plays within the academy setup at Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr, the club his father joined in December 2022. Operating primarily as a striker, he has already experienced a range of elite youth environments despite his young age. Prior to his time in Saudi Arabia, he spent periods developing in the youth systems of Manchester United and Juventus – two clubs where Ronaldo also enjoyed highly successful spells. A move to Real Madrid would carry particular significance given his father’s iconic legacy at the club. Ronaldo played for Los Blancos between 2009 and 2018 and finished as Madrid’s all-time leading goalscorer, …
