The Morning Standard
|June 26, 2023
Ahead of the Assembly polls due later this year, the number of women voters, for the first time, has outnumbered the male electorate in the ongoing special summary revision of the voters' list in Chhattisgarh, which is the tenth largest state in the country.

Officials in the chief electoral office in Raipur believe that if the trend persists, it is likely that Chhattisgarh will join those few states where more women are on the electoral rolls.

Flavour Factory
In 2018, Raipur brothers Akash and Ashish Agrawalla founded ZOFF Foods—short for “Zone of Fresh Foods”—with a bold idea: revive the forgotten aroma of Indian spices using zero-human-touch processing and cool grinding technology. Early skeptics were silenced when a Delhi retailer toured their fully automated, dust-free plant and came away impressed. ZOFF now employs a workforce that is 70 per cent from Chhattisgarh, with senior leaders choosing Raipur over metro cities. Its spices travel far beyond the state, reaching homes across India and even the Middle East. Running a business from a Tier II city, CEO Akash admits, has its hurdles—limited packaging vendors, testing labs, and slower freight timelines—but the benefits are clear: lower costs, access to fresh raw materials, and a community that celebrates their growth as its own.
