DU's U-Special buses may return with new upgrades
New Delhi: Chief minister Rekha Gupta on Tuesday announced the relaunch of the U-Special bus service around Delhi University, reviving a transport option once central to student life. The announcement was made during the inauguration of the new academic block at DU's Social Centre School. Aimed at easing daily commutes for university students, the relaunched service will feature buses operating on DU routes with added features like onboard music, ambient lighting and air-conditioning to enhance the experience. "This is my gift to the students," said Gupta while addressing the crowd. "Back in our college days, that bus felt like our own — no one else could enter. Over time, those buses disappeared. But today, Delhi govt is bringing them back," she said.

She urged Delhi colleges to adopt nearby govt schools and take on a mentoring role. "Why can't each college adopt two or three schools? College students could visit once a week to teach and inspire schoolchildren," she said, directing education minister Ashish Sood to prepare a detailed blueprint for the initiative. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Even Beautiful Women Have Their 'Oops' Moments Read More Undo The event also saw the presence of Sood and DU vice-chancellor Yogesh Singh.

Reinforcing the govt's commitment, he added, "Our priority is to democratise education — to ensure it is accessible and equitable across Delhi." Singh encouraged students to adopt a solution-oriented mindset. "Be problem solvers, not complainers," he about the new academic block, Singh said, "This building was completed in just 21 months at a cost of Rs 21 crore." Emphasising the need for value-based education, he added, "We must create an ecosystem that promotes country-first thinking among students, rather than self-centred ambition. That's something we've been missing for the past 75 years."

US tariff hike threatens Kerala's export economy, says state finance minister
Thiruvananthapuram: Finance minister K N Balagopal warned that the 25% tariff imposed by the United States on Indian products could seriously hurt Kerala's economy. The higher tariff would badly impact exports of key products like marine foods, spices, and tea, he said. Balagopal said the US-led trade war with countries worldwide would cause a major crisis in global trade and economy, hitting India hard. He made these remarks while inaugurating a seminar on 'Post-Covid Development Challenges and Response: Through the lens of Kerala budgets,' organized by Gulati Institute of Finance and Taxation. He added that developed countries like the US and Australia are pressuring the Union govt to open up the markets for agricultural products, milk and milk-based products. Reports suggest that Australia can sell milk in India at a much cheaper rate (Rs 30/litre). If cheaper milk floods Kerala's market, local milk producers could face serious difficulties. He criticized the campaign that Kerala is in a debt trap and its total debt has mounted to Rs 6 trillion. "This is absolutely baseless and a section of experts had been spreading false information about the debt status of Kerala through social media platforms," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo He clarified that Kerala's total debt at the end of FY 2025-26 would be around Rs 4,70,000 crore. According to the trend prevailing over the last three decades, Kerala's total debt has doubled in every five years. Kerala's debt could have crossed Rs 6 trillion as per this cyclical trend, he added. Economist M A Oommen added that Kerala's fiscal condition has worsened due to repeated natural disasters and the Covid pandemic, which have severely impacted the state's finances.

Rahul-Tejashwi ‘yatra' against SIR postponed
Patna: The much-publicised "Vote Adhikar Yatra," which was to be jointly launched by leader of the opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and Bihar assembly opposition leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav , has been postponed due to "unavoidable reasons". The yatra, originally scheduled for Aug, was intended to raise awareness about voting rights and "expose" the functioning of the Election Commission. "Information was issued to the media on Monday regarding the 'Vote Adhikar Yatra' programme, but now the yatra has been postponed due to unavoidable reasons," read a letter issued by RJD state principal general secretary Ranvijay Sahu. "This notice should be considered void until the announcement of a new date," the letter added. However, Tejashwi clarified that the decision to defer the yatra followed the death of Jharkhand Mukti Morcha founder and former Jharkhand CM Shibu Soren. "We had to reschedule the yatra programme due to the death of the former Jharkhand CM," Tejashwi told reporters on Tuesday, adding that a revised schedule would be announced soon. According to sources, the yatra, planned as a joint initiative by two major INDIA bloc allies, the RJD and Congress, was being positioned as a grassroots movement in defence of voting rights. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo It also aimed to strongly oppose the ongoing special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls being undertaken in Bihar ahead of the upcoming assembly elections. The campaign was being widely seen as a launchpad for the opposition's election drive and a means to energise party workers across the state. The sudden postponement, however, has sparked questions about the rationale behind the decision. "We don't understand the reason behind its postponement. The JMM leader died on Monday and the Jharkhand govt declared three days of state mourning, ending on Aug 6. But the yatra was to begin on Aug 10. So, the postponement move looks strange," said an analyst.
