MSRTC to set up 100-acre vehicle scrapping facility near Sambhaji Nagar
MUMBAI: In a bid to increase the revenue of the debt-ridden Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC), the transport department has decided to set up a mega vehicle scrapping facility near Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar on 100 acre of land. It will be on Public Private Partnership (PPP) basis and the bidder will be selected on the basis of share he offers in revenue. The upcoming facility would be around 20 times bigger than the existing facilities in the state, which are on 2-5 acre of land.

(Photo by Bhushan Koyande/HT) In 2021, the central government came up with a policy for scientifically scrapping vehicles which are over 15 years old, under the Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility (RVSF) guidelines. Maharashtra government adopted this policy in 2023, and as per the Automotive Industry Standard (AIS), guidelines have been laid down for granting recognition to such scrapping centres. The largest facility will be built at Khuldabad in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar district, on a 100-acre MSRTC-owned land parcel. Currently, eight authorised entities operate scrapping centers in the state, each with an annual capacity of scrapping a minimum of 1,000 vehicles. Transport minister Pratap Sarnaik on Friday held a meeting regarding the scrapping of vehicles and facility centres. 'This new centre will ensure that old vehicles are scientifically dismantled and their parts are permanently disposed off in a way that prevents reuse. The initiative is expected to generate a new and sustainable revenue stream for MSRTC,' he said. This decision is expected to earn revenue for the debt-ridden MSRTC. The white paper released last week on the financial situation of MSRTC showed that its accumulated losses for five decades stand at ₹ 10,322 crore while dues towards employees' provident fund and gratuity are ₹ 3,297 crore. A transport department officer said that the site for the new facility has access from different regions of the state. 'It's on a fast track route from Mumbai and Vidarbha region due to Samruddhi Express highway. It is close to north Maharashtra and also western Maharashtra. In the coming years, around 6000 ST buses of MSRTC would go for scrapping as they would be old. Vehicles from government offices will also go for scrapping. So there is a huge scope for this facility to give good revenue to MSRTC.' He also added that MSRTC is planning to float tender on the basis of revenue-sharing model instead of a one-time amount, and the company which will offer a bigger share would get the work.

Italian builders insisted the ship was virtually unsinkable and suggested the crew may have been at fault. Speculation circulated that someone could have left a hatch open during the storm.

At 3.50am on Monday August 19 the Bayesian began to shake "dangerously" during a fierce storm, Italian outlet Just minutes later at 3.59am the boat's anchor gave way, with a source saying the data showed there was "no anchor left to hold". After the ferocious weather ripped away the boat's mooring it was dragged some 358 metres through the water.

'Angry divorcee' pours petrol in pack tube sparking huge fire inside carriage
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video A pensioner is facing 160 counts of attempted murder after allegedly pouring petrol in a packed tube and lighting it on fire. The 67-year-old suspect – named only as Won – is accused of carrying out the deadly act during rush hour on the Seoul Metropolitan Subway in South Korea. He was reportedly dissatisfied with the judgment of his divorce lawsuit, prompting him to plan the attack. No one was seriously hurt, but the damages are estimated to top £161,400. CCTV footage of the heinous act has been released by the Seoul public prosecutor's office. The alleged terror attack resulted in 129 people needing first aid at the scene, with six victims taken to nearby hospitals with injuries. Others were treated for smoke inhalation. Prosecutors say Won deliberately targeted the busy train to gain public attention, before fleeing the scene and being detained later at Yeouinaru Station. But thanks to the passengers' quick actions and the installation of fire-resistant materials, a more devastating tragedy was prevented. Won remains in police custody as the investigation continues. Simon Burras, Managing Director at Applied Industrial Systems (AIS), a tunnel ventilation control system specialist, previously told Metro: 'If there is a fire on the train, then the normal mode of operation is for the train to stop at the next station so that the passengers can evacuate quickly. 'Once the train arrives at the station, the over-platform extraction systems are designed to remove the smoke. The staircase pressurisation systems provide a positive airflow down the escape route so that passengers can escape through smoke-free air. 'If, for some reason, there is a fire and the train is stopped in the tunnel, and passengers have to escape via the tunnel walkways, then the tunnel ventilation system is designed to clear smoke so that they can do so safely. 'Usually, the system works by sending the smoke in one direction and passengers in the other. Along the tunnel, active way-finding lights point in the direction passengers need to take to evacuate.' Yes. More Trending In 2023, a fire on a London Underground train was found to be a deliberate act of arson. Flames were reported to be burning through the end of a carriage on a stationary Tube train in Leyton, melting into the floor. And though it wasn't arson, in February, a fire broke out in a northbound tunnel near Waterloo Underground station. London Fire Brigade and other emergency crews rushed to the scene after reports of a 'ceramic track support' overheating in the Kennington Tunnels on York Road, south east London.
