JMCs begin repair of potholes, but residents unimpressed

Jaipur: After weeks of public outcry and deteriorating road conditions, Jaipur municipal corporations (JMCs) Greater and Heritage have finally started repairing potholes. However, the effort has come too late as most residents have already borne the brunt of monsoon-related chaos. JMC-H officials Wednesday claimed to have repaired over 300 potholes in past 2 days, while JMC-G on Thursday claimed to have repaired 602 potholes. The reality on the ground tells a different story. Roads in both corporations' limits, from Hasanpura Road and Tripolia Bazaar to Meera Marg in Mansarovar, remain riddled with potholes. In several areas, roads have crumbled so badly that they now resemble unpaved tracks. While some main roads, like at Tripolia Bazaar, were patched up overnight on Wednesday ahead of the Teej Yatra on July 27, councillors and locals claim that the inner lanes have been completely ignored. Commissioner of JMC-H, Nidhi Patel, said, "We have already begun the work and are progressing quickly. Our aim is to complete the patchwork as soon as possible." However, residents argue the work should have been done well before the monsoon began. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like People Born 1940-1975 With No Life Insurance Could Be Eligible For This Reassured Undo "There's no point doing patchwork in the middle of heavy rains. One downpour and the roads are back to square one," a resident said. Confusion over jurisdiction is also slowing down progress. JMCs are responsible for roads up to 30 feet wide, while broader stretches fall under Jaipur Development Authority (JDA). This often results in delays and neglected repairs. Frustrated citizens have resorted to symbolic protests, naming potholes after MLAs and putting up sarcastic posters in hopes of getting the authorities' attention.

Power upgrades at 75 substations to benefit over 4.5L consumers in Noida

Noida: Around 4.5 lakh electricity consumers in the city may soon experience better power supply, with upgrade work nearly complete at several 33/11 kV substations across Noida. Officials said the improvements, which include installation of alternate supply lines, will ensure uninterrupted power in case of faults or outages. Of the 80 33/11 kV substations in the city, 75 have already been equipped with alternate supply lines. Work on the remaining five is under way, according to officials. Some of the upgraded substations are located in sectors 20, 37, 42, and 62. A new substation was also energised at New Dankaur earlier this month to serve parts of Greater Noida. The substation was commissioned on July 12 and its 11 kV feeders have now been successfully loaded. "This will provide improved supply to both the areas," said Sanjay Kumar Jain, chief engineer, Noida power department.

"For this upgrade, an alternate supply line provision was initiated so that if there is an outage or a snag, supply can be provided from the alternate line," a discom official said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You To Read in 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Before the upgrades began, a survey was conducted to identify substations that required dual-line connections. Officials said the project is expected to significantly reduce issues of local faults, outages, overloading and voltage fluctuations. In addition to the alternate supply lines, over 50 new transformers have been installed at various substations, while the load capacity of existing transformers has also been enhanced.

Plea to classify Saraswathi Mahal Library in Thanjavur as model library

Madurai: Madras high court on Thursday ordered notice to the Centre and the state on a plea seeking a direction to classify the Saraswathi Mahal Library in Thanjavur as a model library under the National Mission on Libraries. A division bench of justice S M Subramaniam and justice A D Maria Clete was hearing a public interest litigation filed by B Prabhakaran of Chennai. The petitioner stated that the 500-year-old library holds immense historical, socio-cultural, and academic significance. The library, also known as Thanjavur Maharaja Serfoji's Sarasvati Mahal Library, is one of the oldest surviving libraries in Asia, established in the 16th century during the reign of the Nayak kings of Thanjavur. The library was enriched by Maratha rulers, notably King Serfoji II, an eminent scholar and polyglot. He stated that the library, a historic repository of ancient knowledge, is currently suffering from severe administrative neglect, acute staff shortage, unimplemented digitisation programmes, and lack of preservation efforts by the govt, leading to the loss of valuable books and journals. No effective measures have been taken to ensure the preservation or proper management of the library's invaluable records. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The continued neglect and failure to implement restoration and preservation measures amount to a grave dereliction of public duty and a violation of the collective cultural rights of the people enshrined under Article 29 of the Constitution. The Union ministry of culture exercises administrative supervision over several premier libraries. Saraswathi Mahal Library falls well within the purview of the National Mission on Libraries, which is established under the ministry. Hence, the petitioner moved court seeking a direction to classify the library as a model library and to take appropriate steps towards digitisation, conservation, and implement development schemes administered by the ministry by sanctioning requisite grants-in-aid to undertake restoration measures and infrastructural upgrades.
