Cherlopalikhandam township plan back on track after 18 years
1 2 Visakhapatnam: After nearly 18 years of hurdles, stalemate over the Cherlopalikhandam land parcel near Anakapalli has finally been resolved, paving the way for the development of a 58-acre integrated township. This long-pending project, originally proposed in 2007 under the land pooling scheme (LPS), has been delayed due to complications involving 16 acres of land for which the owners had not given consent. In 2007, the then Visakhapatnam Urban Development Authority (VUDA), now the Visakhapatnam Metropolitan Region Development Authority (VMRDA), identified around 86 acres in survey nos. 1550, 1553 to 1566, and 1571 to 1572 of Cherlopalikhandam village for a large layout, citing significant public demand. Of this, 62.37 acres were private lands proposed to be acquired under the LPS. This initiative was formally approved through a VUDA board Resolution in July 2010. In 2014, VUDA issued a draft notification for 79.1 acres, inviting objections and suggestions from stakeholders. After reviewing the responses, a final notification was issued in July of the same year. Based on this, a draft layout plan was prepared in 2016 for approximately 58.18 acres, focusing on the land for which general power of attorney agreements had already been executed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses In Gubeng Container House | Search ads Search Now Undo However, consent remained pending for nearly 16 acres, leading to a prolonged impasse. This deadlock has now been broken with the state govt's recent approval of a compensation package. Under the new arrangement, landowners of the 16 disputed acres will be compensated with 1,200 square yards per acre, comprising a 1,000 square yard residential plot and a 200 square yard commercial plot. In contrast, landowners of the remaining 41 acres, who parted with their land long ago through registered agreements, will receive 1,800 square yards per acre. One acre of the land falls under govt ownership. According to VMRDA officials, the site, located adjacent to the Anakapalli–Sabbavaram Road and in close proximity to Anakapalli town, is ideally suited for housing development. Given the increasing demand for housing in the area, officials believe the township project will be financially viable for VMRDA. Notably, VMRDA has already incurred about Rs 1.7 crore towards registration charges and initial development works. Some roads and drains have also been laid on-site in preparation for the project. VMRDA metropolitan commissioner KS Viswanathan said that the govt's recent decision resolves a long-pending issue that remained unsettled for 18 years. "According to the govt order, after obtaining the approval of the landowners of the 15.9 acres for which consent had not been given earlier, 1,000 square yards of residential plots and 200 square yards for commercial use per acre will be allocated to them. The govt's move is a win-win, providing farmers with immediate and improved returns, while also generating resources for VMRDA," said Viswanathan. Infographics: Long-pending project: In 2007, plans were initiated to develop a satellite township at Cherlopalikhandam near Anakapalli The then VUDA (now VMRDA) took inspiration from the successful 'Ozone Valley' LPS project for planning the Cherlopalikhandam layout Anakapalli is now the district headquarters, increasing the project's strategic value Starting from 2008, general power of attorney (GPA) agreements were signed with farmers under specific terms The project faced a stalemate for nearly 18 years due to lack of consent from some landowners A recent government order has resolved the issue, enabling the project to proceed Farmers who gave 41.287 acres through GPA will receive 1,600 sq. yds of residential and 200 sq. yds of commercial plots per acre Landowners of 15.9 acres, who had not given their consent earlier, will receive 1,000 sq. yds of residential and 200 sq. yds of commercial plots per acre Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Friendship Day wishes , messages and quotes !

Discom rules flouted in inflated bill cases
1 2 Jaipur: Consumers are grappling with erroneous, inflated power bills that require payment of the full amount, facing the threat of supply disconnection if unable to do so. Discom rules are often overlooked by authorities, officials said. According to officials, supply disconnection is a lengthy process, providing consumers the right to present their position and offering several opportunities to do so. However, a lack of awareness of the rules among consumers and the indifferent, authoritarian attitude of authorities at the lower level of the administration ultimately lead to harassment. They said as per the existing rules, customers are required to pay average monthly charges in cases of inflated bills and follow the process to settle disputes. "We have an internal grievance redressal (IGR) cell set up for resolving bill payment disputes arising out of faulty meter reading or overshooting contracted demand (for large consumers). Customers should not be asked to pay the full amount pending the process," a discom official said. Payment disputes involving up to Rs 20,000 are resolved at the AEN. Disputes up to Rs 50,000 are addressed by the XEN. Cases between Rs 50,000 to Rs 5 lakh are taken up at the circle level and above that at the discom's corporate level. By the time the disputes reach the corporate level, the number is reduced to about five to seven. The highest level of grievance redressal cell is represented by the managing director of discoms, an independent official from the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission, and a senior accounts person. In fact, the IGR asks for deposits of money in the disputed cases, but they mostly involve high-value cases. Often, it is 25% or 50% of the disputed amount, depending on the nature of the case. But the rates are not uniform, said a discom official. "In most cases, the genuineness of the bill raised is known because the consumer has a record. If a meter malfunctions and the consumption of units goes up, it's easier to solve it. But in cases involving large customers when their consumption overshoots their contracted demand, we demand a deposit of 25% or 50% of the disputed amount," said the official.

10 fire engines take 3 hours to douse blaze that hits 67-year-old unit of Bengal's legacy med co
1 2 Kolkata: A fire broke out at a Dey's Medical factory on Bondel Road around 4 pm on Saturday, sending thick black smoke billowing across the neighbourhood and forcing residents of nearby buildings to evacuate. While nobody was injured in the fire, three firemen fell ill after inhaling toxic fumes while working inside the affected building. The factory was closed at the time but the blaze at its pharmaceutical unit sparked widespread panic, with residents rushing out of their homes and traffic coming to a standstill in the area. Ten fire engines took nearly three hours to control the blaze. The billowing smoke was so dense that it was visible from as far as Park Circus, a few motorists said. The exact cause of the fire was yet to be ascertained. You Can Also Check: Kolkata AQI | Weather in Kolkata | Bank Holidays in Kolkata | Public Holidays in Kolkata "The fire broke out in the pharmaceutical unit of the factory. Barring the guards, there was nobody inside the factory as Saturday is a holiday. As no work was on, a short circuit could have caused the fire, but the reason can be confirmed only after a forensic inspection," said a fire department officer, supervising the rescue operation. "The pocket where the fire started had some packaging chemicals. It spread fast," said one of the firefighters on the scene. Sources said the Dey family, which owned the business, had recently invested Rs 40 crore to upgrade the manufacturing facility to conform to the World Health Organization's Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). "The manufacturing facility was upgraded in the past one-and-a-half years. We are praying and hoping the fire did not cause much damage to the facility as 70% of our drugs are manufactured at this unit," said company director Rishav Dey. The factory will resume operations only after the investigation is completed. "At first, we thought it was just someone burning waste, but the smoke quickly turned dense and dark," said Namita Chowdhury, a resident of 43, Bondel Road, located right opposite the factory. "There was a lot of shouting and confusion. People were coming out on balconies and calling their neighbours." Chowdhury said six members of the family, including two children, were inside the house when the incident took place. No one was injured, though all suffered a bout of coughing amid the smoke. The blaze caused major traffic disruptions on Syed Amir Ali Avenue, Rifle Range Road, Palm Avenue and the Bondel Gate flyover, as fire engines and emergency personnel cordoned off the area. Picnic Garden resident Fahim Ansari, who was stuck in the jam on Rifle Range Road, described the moment he realised something was seriously wrong. "As I rode towards the Bondel Gate flyover, the entire area looked like it was under a dark cloud. The Dey's Medical factory on Bondel Road was inaugurated in 1958 by then former chief minister Bidhan Chandra Roy. Though Dey's Medical has multiple manufacturing facilities now, the Bondel Gate factory is the only one, where pharmaceutical products, including tablets, syrups and eye drops, are manufactured. The other unit makes cosmetic products, including body and hair oil. There are also some factories outside the state to which it contracts medicine manufacturing. Dey's Medical founder Bhupendranath Dey forayed into the pharmaceutical business in 1941, when he rented a space on Lindsay Street opposite New Market to establish Dey's Medical Stores.
