Cinnamon tea sounds quite delicious. I make mint tea, cardamom tea etc but have never tried cinnamon tea. What is the recipe of the tea that you drink at home? Do share here!
Preparation of Cinnamon tea is same as our regular tea. Boil the water, add sugar and tea powder as per your requirement and after 2-3 minutes add 1-2 sticks of cinnamon. If you like strong cinnamon taste then add 2 or more sticks or else just 1 is enough. Some people also like tea masala along with cinnamon, you can add that as well (its optional). Let it boil for 7-10 minutes and then just add milk in it. Tht's it.
stick is enough.

usha manohar replied to the topic Health Benefits of Cinnamon or Dalchin.
@ anil, we make cinnamon tea adding cinnamon sticks and a handful of herbs that are locally available and crushed ginger. ..
@Kalyani, It does make the rice very flavorsome and also keeps the pests away . Since the amount of rice is large normally meant for the entire year they use cinnamon sticks instead of using any other chemicals.

If there was no need I doubt the government would want to import pulses from another country . In fact importing from African countries is good because most of them are poorer countries and this deal would help them at least in a small way.

I heard first time that African countries are involved into the import. Why did government chose African countries for such deal and not countries?
They are indeed involved and the stuff is of good quality too, there is a young, enterprising farmer in Maharashtra who imports high quality cashew nuts from Benin, a very tiny and almost unknown country in Africa and earns a quite decent livelihood. One just needs to know where and how to find things.
Back to topic, indeed the fear of the author is valid that stressing on imports only may endanger farming of pulses but it really has not much relevance as demand for pulses only keeps growing adn the production is not proportionate to its demand. Also, we have seen how Toor dal has made people cry, last year, its price has gone up to Rs.200-220 rupees per kg and at the moment, it is Rs 140. So importing pulses is the only way to bridge the gap between demand and production.
Price of most of pluses is nearby 100 Rs per kg, but our farmers are not interested in it farming. In this area of pulse farming increase nearby 20%. So in coming supply will be improves.

Punjab is major state of Indian in grain production, but farmers of Punjab is not interested in pulses farmers. Their entire focus is on cotton, rice and wheat. For long term India government must be encourage farmers for pulse farming.

According to the MOU to be inked between the two Countries, India may support a network of farmers in Mozambique. India will provide Logistical support, Technology and seeds and pulses to the farmers.
Experts say there is no need to import the pulses, if similar type of network can be provided in India too and the Indian farmers are provided technology and seeds.
Experts know better than us but it is my views that farming of pulses in not priority of Indian farmers. In this session canals of my area have not enough water for farming of cotton, so farmers are harvesting pulses other wise their first priorty is cotton,
