Encroachments removed from Sindhi Camp bus stand
Manoj Mudgal, chairperson of the anti-encroachment committee, said, "Many people had encroached upon the bus stand, due to which operation of buses was disturbed and passengers and drivers were facing problems. We first tried to explain to local traders to remove the encroachments, but, despite our efforts, the encroachments were not cleared. Action was finally taken by the civic body today."
Mudgal added that main roads and intersections in the Walled City will also be made encroachment-free.
"This will not only make the traffic system in Jaipur smooth, but domestic and foreign tourists visiting will be able to see the beauty of the Pink City in a better way," he said.
Meanwhile, JMC-Greater removed temporary encroachments from Pankaj Singhvi Marg, Fortis Hospital, JLN Marg, near Jawahar Circle Police Station, Nandpuri Underpass, Sanganer Bazaar, City Bus Stand, Malpura Gate, and surrounding areas on Wednesday. Two canters of goods were seized and sent to the warehouse, and a carrying charge of Rs 10,000 was collected on the spot from the encroachers, officials said.

Setback to lenders: NCLT replaces RP in Anil Ambani's loan guarantee case
NEW DELHI: In a setback to lenders, the National Company Law Tribunal has removed Jitender Kothari as the resolution professional (RP) in an insolvency case related to Anil Ambani 's personal guarantee to SBI for a loan to Reliance Communications . NCLT appointed Prashant Jain as the new RP. In Sept 2016, Ambani had given a personal guarantee for a Rs 1,385-crore loan, which was retrospectively classified as an NPA effective late Aug 2016. Kothari was appointed RP in Aug 2020. A few days after his appointment, the RP sought multiple details from Ambani, including details of a case in a British court. The insolvency action had been challenged in Delhi HC and the SC. In May 2021, the RP filed his report in NCLT, recommending admission of company petition for insolvency resolution despite Ambani's lawyer seeking more time, citing restricted mobility due to Covid. A few days later, Ambani's lawyer wrote that the RP can only seek information from SBI. Meanwhile, the businessman's writ petition in SC was tagged along with one Surendra Jiwarajka, which was finally decided in Nov 2023. Ambani has accused the RP of "acting in undue haste and denying him fair and proper opportunity" to provide information. Besides, the RP is accused of exceeding the mandate under IBC in seeking "unrelated information". The RP denied the charges and SBI supported it, while arguing that the matter had been pending with NCLT for a long time and the case was being delayed. In its order on July 15, the benchsaid that in light of Covid-related disruptions, Ambani should have been given "a fair opportunity" to provide information to the resolution professional. "Instead, we note that the RP didn't even wait for adjudication of his application pending before this Tribunal seeking relaxation of 10 days' timeline and a cross application of the applicant before this Tribunal requiring more time in view of Covid restrictions. " "Though, we do not find any negligence or explicit bias on part of the RP in this case, however, we are of considered view since the insolvency resolution process after commencement has to be run in close coordination of debtor and RP," it said.

As more slum dwellers told to move, Delhi CM assures justice
Reiterating that unauthorised slums will be removed from Delhi, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Sunday said that the government has allocated a budget Rs 700 crore to provide accommodation to eligible slum dwellers. 'Whenever slums need to be removed for any reason, arrangements are being made to provide houses to the eligible residents…,' she said at the 'Faatak wali jhuggi' near the railway crossing in Shalimar Bagh on Sunday morning. The Railways has issued a notice for the removal of the sum cluster, citing that it is located on railway land needed for the expansion of the Azadpur railway station. 'You will get complete justice. The Delhi government is fully committed to this,' Gupta told the slum dwellers. 'When a crisis came upon you, I came to meet you because the Delhi government is not in favour of removing slums without reason… If slums have to be removed for development projects or other legitimate reasons, the government will ensure proper rehabilitation for the eligible residents so they too can become part of Delhi's growth story,' she added. This comes amid the recent demolition of unauthorised slums at Madrasi Camp, Bhoomiheen Camp, Jailerwala Bagh Camp and Taimoor Nagar in the Capital. Taking on AAP and Congress, Gupta said that in the last 40 years, no development has taken place in Delhi's slums. 'These parties have only seen slum dwellers as voters and constantly tried to exploit them, while also damaging the city's geographical character,' she said. The AAP, meanwhile, said in a statement, 'The CM has been constantly lying on this issue. First, on completion of 100 days of her government, she claimed no jhuggi will be demolished. And on the very next day, hundreds of jhuggis were demolished at Madrasi Camp. Later, thousands of people have to rendered homeless at Jailerwala Bagh, Bawana, Moti Nagar, Kalkaji etc.' 'We challenge Rekha Gupta to publish the list of jhuggis that have been demolished and names of people who have been given flats by them. They are trying to fool the people by giving flats to just a few of them and making others homeless,' the party added. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, too, said on Sunday that hundreds of slum dwellers in Delhi are going through the pain of being rendered homeless with their houses being destroyed by the BJP government, as he claimed that this 'atrocity' exposes the ruling party's 'insensitivity' towards the poor and its 'arrogance of power'. The leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha shared a video of his recent visit to Delhi's Ashok Vihar area where houses of several people were brought down by the administration. The small houses in which they had settled their entire life were 'ruthlessly destroyed' by the BJP government, he alleged in his post in Hindi on X along with the video.

Khuba accuses state govt of creating artificial fertiliser shortage
Pic: Bhagwant Khuba, a former Union minister and BJP functionary, speaks at a press conference on Sunday evening in Bidar Bidar: Former Union minister and BJP functionary Bhagwant Khuba asserted that the Union govt is supplying fertilisers to the state based on the demand for the monsoon season. However, he accused the Congress govt in the state of artificially creating a shortage and selling fertilisers at inflated prices in the black market, thus embezzling funds. During a press conference on Sunday evening, he expressed his concerns about the lack of urea and DAP fertilisers in the state, which led to significant disruptions. He vehemently condemned the actions of the Congress govt. Khuba highlighted that fertilisers are being sold at Rs 100 above the standard rates in black markets. Despite sufficient supplies, a fabricated shortage appears to exist. He criticised the Congress for persistently blaming the Modi govt while they continue to receive regular fertiliser supplies and financial support from the central govt. Drawing from his experience as the former Union minister for fertilisers, Khuba challenged Congress's claims regarding fertiliser distribution. He noted that the black market for fertilisers is prevalent in all states governed by Congress, not just in Karnataka. He provided detailed statistics: The state requires 11.1 lakh metric tonnes of urea for monsoon farming. The central govt supplied 8.7 lakh metric tonnes, with 7 lakh metric tonnes already allocated and 1.6 lakh metric tonnes still available. Regarding DAP, out of a need for 4 lakh metric tonnes, 2.95 lakh metric tonnes have been supplied, with 2.2 lakh metric tonnes distributed and 71,000 metric tonnes remaining. District BJP unit president Somnath Patil criticised the state govt's apparent indifference to central initiatives. He pointed out the delays in providing relief to farmers affected by adverse weather conditions. He connected 3,400 farmer suicides over the past two years to flawed state policies. District BJP youth unit president Santhosh Reddy, District BJP Raita Morcha president Shivaraj Almaje, District BJP media coordinator Srinivas Chaudhary, Babuwali, Fernandes Hippalgaon, and many other functionaries were present.
