Excavation of Khellani tunnel’s 1st tube in Doda completed before deadline

[ad_1]
DODA/JAMMU: The National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd (NHIDCL) has completed the excavation of the first tube of the strategic Khellani tunnel along NH 244, an alternative road connecting Kashmir with the rest of the country.
The work on the 1.574 km tunnel, which is crucial for the Sudhmahadev- Goha–Khalleni – Chhatroo–Khanabal highway project, started on March 25, 2021, to provide alternative all-weather connectivity and shorten the distance between Doda and Kishtwar districts by 30 km, an official said.
“The breakthrough on the Khellani project was achieved on February 24 but because of the loose strata, we are in the process of stabilising it. Within another 10 days, the work will be completed and in the next 7 to 8 months, this tunnel will be made motorable,” senior site engineer, NHIDCL, Harjeet Singh told PTI.
He said the work on the second tube is also going on at a brisk pace and if everything goes as planned, the breakthrough is expected by April-end.
The Khellani tunnel, constructed at a cost of Rs 431.28 crore, will bypass the slide-prone Batote-Pul Doda which has already been declared “unsafe” due to the reservoir of Baglihar hydroelectric project.
In 2008, around half a-kilometre patch of the highway between Batote and Pul Doda washed away due to capillary action caused by Baglihar pondage, the officials said.
The management staff of APCO Infra-Tech Private Limited, which is the contractor of the Khellani tunnel project, are also positive to complete the construction of the tunnel in time after the breakthrough of one of the twin tubes of the tunnel.
“We started the work on this tunnel in March 2021 and we have completed above 85 per cent of the work and have already successfully made the breakthrough of the 1st tube. There are maximum chances that we will complete the work within time,” Assistant General Manager, Khellani Tunnel Project, Vinay Kumar Singh said.

He said the road has been planned to reduce the travelling time for the inhabitants of the Doda and Kishtwar districts and boost the economy of the area besides providing an alternate all-weather road between Jammu and Srinagar.
Doda district Vice President of BJP, Sanjay Saraf credited the local member parliament and Union Minister Jitendra Singh for his efforts in sanctioning and fast-tracking the work on the project.
“This road will change the fortunes of the people of Doda and Kishtwar as the tourism industry emerging as the mainstay of the economy of the region will surely get a major boost because visitors no longer will be compelled to ply on a dangerous and treacherous road, instead they can enjoy the shorter and safer journey,” Saraf said.–(PTI)

UAE: Deadline for changing employment contracts extended

[ad_1]
Abu Dhabi: The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has extended the deadline to change the terms of employment contracts to comply with the new rules, local media reported.
The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation has given time till December 31, 2023 from February 1, 2023, to modify the contracts in accordance with the new rules.
The new labour law came into force in the country on February 2, 2022.
The most important of these is the reform of fixing the duration of employment contracts. Therefore, employment contracts signed for an indefinite period without fixing a fixed period have to be changed according to the law.
Accordingly, all employment contracts must be for a fixed period. The employment contracts can be for a maximum period of three years. Contracts may be extended or renewed for a similar period or a shorter period if the employer and worker agree.
As per multiple media reports, if the employer and the worker continue to implement the contract after the expiry of its original term without an explicit agreement, the original contract is considered extended with the same conditions contained therein.
In the event of contract extension or renewal, the new period or periods shall be considered an extension of the original period and shall be added to it in calculating the employee’s continuous period of service.
Unspecified work contracts will be converted into fixed-term work contracts within one year from the date the new labor law enters into force and in accordance with the conditions, controls and procedures contained therein.

The law allows the country’s cabinet to extend this period as required by public interest. According to the new decision, time has been given till the end of 2023 to revise fixed-term employment contracts in the private sector.
