Govt moves to unlock 43,000-hectare wheat farm
MANYARA: THE government has pledged to resolve challenges surrounding the Ngano Limited wheat farm investment in Hanang district, paving the way for the 43,000-hectare project to boost wheat production, create jobs and drive economic growth.
Deputy Minister in the President’s Office for Planning and Investment, Dr Pius Chaya, made the commitment during a working visit to the farm to assess the progress of the agricultural investment.
Dr Chaya explained that the government was implementing President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s directive to ensure that the dispute between the investor and local residents is resolved fairly while protecting the interests of all parties.
According to him, the President had directed that challenges affecting the wheat farm and residents of Hanang be addressed permanently, allowing the land to be put to productive use and enabling the investment to deliver benefits to local communities and the wider economy.

The rules are quite different in India and Tanzania, though in both countries prisoners generally do not have unrestricted access to mobile phones.
India
Prisoners are not allowed to possess or use personal mobile phones. Mobile phones are considered contraband in prisons.
Many prisons provide supervised telephone facilities, allowing inmates to call approved family members or lawyers at scheduled times.
Some states have introduced monitored video calls or e-prison communication systems, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic.
The exact rules vary because prisons are administered by individual state governments.
Tanzania
Prisoners are also not permitted to keep or use personal mobile phones.
Communication with family is typically through:
supervised visits,
letters,
and, in some facilities, supervised telephone calls if the prison administration permits them.
Access to telephones is generally more limited than in many Indian prisons, depending on the facility and available resources.
Key differences
Aspect India Tanzania
Personal mobile phones Not allowed Not allowed
Supervised phone calls Available in many prisons Available in some prisons, often more limited
Video calls Available in some prisons Generally uncommon
Rules Vary by state Governed nationally by prison authorities
So, in both countries, prisoners cannot freely use mobile phones. The main difference is that India has more prisons offering supervised phone and video-call facilities, while Tanzania’s communication options are generally more limited and depend on the specific prison’s resources and policies.
