64 years on, water treatment plant for Mollem and Collem
Ponda: Villages of Collem and Mollem — part of the Sanvordem assembly constituency — have begun receiving treated water from a dedicated water treatment plant for the first time, six decades after the state's Liberation. The supply started on Friday. The water treatment plant at Collem, costing over Rs 25 crore, has a capacity of 3 million litres per day (MLD) and was commissioned on Friday by fisheries minister Nilkanth Halarnkar, in the presence of Sanvordem MLA Ganesh Gaonkar. Over 2,500 households at Collem and Mollem villages in Dharbandora taluka are now getting treated water. Earlier, the water division of the PWD would pump raw water from the Khandepar river; from borewells at Bazarwada, Metawada, and one near the rural dispensary; and from an open well at Bazarwada. The present total consumption is 2.5MLD and the plant has been planned considering the next 30 years' consumption, said Dinkar Malekar, an assistant engineer with the department of drinking water (DDW). Water was earlier being filtered by a mini-pressure sand filter which ran for around 14 hours daily to supply potable water to the villages. However, locals were unwilling to accept the water, as the river basin it came from is used by tourists to bathe. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villa Prices in Dubai Might Be Lower Than You Think! Villa for sale in Dubai | Search Ads Learn More Undo On Dec 17, 2021, the then PWD minister Deepak Pauskar laid the foundation stone for the water treatment plant project and the work started in Jan-Feb 2022. Gaonkar said the tender for the work on the plant was allotted to SMC Infrastructure from Thane, Maharashtra. Under the project, the contractor has constructed an overhead reservoir of 650 cubic metres (CuM) near Maruti Mandir, Gandhinagar at Collem, an 800 CuM clear water tank near Mallikeshwar temple at Metawada, and a 300 CuM ground-level reservoir (GLR) at Mollem. Malekar said a 7km-long ductile iron rising main pipeline pushes the water to the plant, and the 25km-long network comprises 90mm, 100mm, 110mm, and 150mm distribution lines. The treated water is then poured into the Collem overhead reservoir and ground-level reservoir at Mollem. 'While Collem villagers will get water from the overhead reservoir, the water to Mollem consumers will have to be pumped and released via distribution lines as the ground-level reservoir is situated at a low level,' Malekar said.

Kanpur admin secures home, financial support for orphaned girl
Kanpur: A transformative incident at a public hearing reshaped the future of eight-year-old Kashish who lost her mother and was abandoned by her father. But she now has an accommodation and legal safeguards, thanks to the district administration's compassionate intervention. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now During a recent public hearing, Chandrabhan Pandey presented himself alongside his granddaughter Kashish. He detailed how he assumed responsibility for Kashish after his daughter passed away, as the child's father remarried and abandoned his daughter. Chandrabhan Pandey disclosed that in 2019, the Kanpur Development Authority allocated a flat to his late daughter under the Pradhanmantri Awas Yojna's Mahavir Scheme. Following her demise, his attempts to transfer the property to Kashish faced legal complications. Recognising the urgency, the district magistrate took immediate action, directing the district probation officer to coordinate with the Child Welfare Committee. Subsequently, under the Juvenile Justice Act, Chandrabhan Pandey received legal guardianship of Kashish, accompanied by necessary documentation. The Kanpur Development Authority has initiated the property transfer, with completion expected within a month. This will ensure Kashish receives her rightful inheritance of her mother's residence. The district magistrate further arranged for the girl's inclusion in the Chief Minister's Child Service Scheme, guaranteeing a monthly support of Rs 2,500 until she reaches 18. Instructions were also issued for her admission to a nearby educational institution.

Despite measures, forest fires still a big concern in Maharashtra: Official
Mumbai, Jul 20 (PTI) Forest fires continue to threaten Maharashtra's ecosystems, particularly in the eastern parts of the state, despite several measures and technological interventions, a senior forest department official said on Sunday. Forest Minister Ganesh Naik had earlier informed the legislature that between January 1 and April 15 this year, 204 forest fire incidents were reported from various forest areas across several districts. Naik had said that most of these fires were caused by human negligence or natural factors. 'Although no wildlife deaths have been reported during these incidents, the recurrence of fires remains a concern," he had said. The official said that the Forest Department has taken multiple steps, including issuing fire prevention guidelines, training personnel, and deploying firefighting equipment, the official said. 'In January 2024 alone, eight fire incidents were recorded," the official said, adding that illegal burning of forest areas is being tackled under provisions of the Indian Forest Act. In several regions in the state, including Konkan, Vidarbha and the northern parts, people start forest fires to keep wild animals at bay. Fires are also used to clear forested patches and stake claims to the land, as many areas lack clearly demarcated forest boundaries, the official said. Efforts to prevent fires include the marking of forest boundaries, creation of fire lines, and increased patrolling in vulnerable areas. 'We have trained staff in fire management and are using modern equipment to enhance response time," the official said. Despite these measures, a large number of fires continue to erupt, he said. According to the India State of Forest Report 2023, released in December last year, Maharashtra ranked fifth in the country with 16,008 forest fire incidents between November 2023 and June 2024. Of these, Gadchiroli alone accounted for 7,042 cases, the highest number for any district in India. 'The department is using advanced tools like Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing to identify high-risk zones. Forest fire control centres have been established, fire-blower machines are used to remove dry leaf litter, and observation towers have been installed in sensitive areas," the official said. Meanwhile, the state has also recorded a sharp increase in human-wildlife conflicts. According to official records, such incidents, including human deaths, injuries, crop damage and livestock loss, rose from 44,692 in 2020-21 to 2,37,841 in 2023-24. To address compensation and related concerns, the state government allocated Rs 80 crore each in 2020-21 and 2021-22, Rs 127.1 crore in 2022-23, Rs 145 crore in 2023-24, and Rs 220.86 crore in 2024-25. 'The Forest Department has submitted a proposal to the Finance Department for additional financial provision based on the increasing number of conflict cases. The proposal, based on data from December 2023, is currently under review," the official added.
