Hyderabad: 200 buildings to be razed in Bandlaguda Crystal Township

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: As many as 200 buildings in Crystal Township on the outskirts of Hyderabad will be demolished and steps will be taken initially to complete the demolition of the under-construction buildings in this venture.
The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), while initiating the demolition drive at Crystal Township located in Bandlaguda, said that this 44-acre stretcher is not approved and there are orders of the Telangana High Court regarding this venture and the residents of the area have been continuously issued notices by the municipality.
The civic officials will launch a massive operation in Crystal Township Bandlaguda with the help of several bulldozers under heavy police supervision and said that 200 buildings in this township have been identified and issued notices and no response has been received from them so far. Hence, it has been decided to carry out demolition operations in a big way.

Those who bought the property in Crystal Township and built their houses say that if it is illegal and unapproved, then why did the government departments remain silent at the time of sale, and how these properties were registered? When asked by the residents, civic officials said they were ensuring the implementation of the court’s orders.
Despite heavy police deployment in the township for the demolition, the residents of Crystal Township protested and raised slogans against the GHMC action. The victims expressed their displeasure over the venture sold by Pride India. The company’s officials, saying that in connection with the unapproved layout, the applications had been filed under the LRS to regularize the lands in this venture, but now that 200 buildings have been identified by the civic officials.
Those protesting against the demolition were detained by the police and officials have warned that if anyone tries to disrupt the demolition of the municipality, cases will be registered against them on charges of interfering in government work.

Hyderabad hotels no longer use curtains to cover food during Ramzan

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Once upon a time the restaurants in the city, out of respect for those who fast in Ramzan, would help put up curtains to ensure that ‘rozedars‘ don’t get a look of people eating while they pass by.
As time passed, however, the practice of putting curtains or screens to cover the view of the people eating inside restaurants during the fasting hours in Ramzan has waned away.
Earlier, before Ramzan would begin, all restaurants and eateries would put up big cloth curtains. “Motive was to give a safe space to people who visit during fasting hours and eat sometime. Not all fast during Ramzan because of health-related issues, so such people would feel shy from visiting the hotel and eating. At home, one cannot expect families to cook food for one or two people,” said Syed Naseer of Al Madina Hotel, Falaknuma.

The other reason for putting curtains or screens at restaurants was to avoid hurting the sentiments of the pious who fast during the holy month of Ramzan. “Generally, it was to respect the religious beliefs of those fasting during Ramzan. In Muslim localities, all hotels preferred to put curtains or screens in Ramzan. The practice now has gone over a period of time,” said Moin Khan, a hotel owner at Misrigunj.
The practice of putting curtains was not restricted to any particular area or restaurant/hotel. “It was a uniform protocol. Sincerely adhered to by all hotel managements in Ramzan,” recalls Syed Mujeeb, an old-timer from Charminar. The curtain was removed after sunset when people break their fast for the day. The next morning the curtains would be put back.
This is something also seen in Middle East countries, including Dubai, earlier. Three years ago the UAE government there announced it was no longer mandatory to put curtains or screens at the hotel.

Delhi electricity consumers, D-MAT account holders, mobile numbers of various individuals, NEET students, high net worth individuals, insurance holders, credit card and debit card holders,” the Cyberabad Police maintained.
On March 22, the police arrested a seven member gang allegedly involved in the theft and sale of sensitive data of the government and important organizations, including details of defense personnel as well as the personal and confidential data of about 16.8 crore citizens. The accused persons were found selling more than 140 different categories of information, which include sensitive information such as details of defense personnel and the mobile numbers of citizens and NEET students, among others, the police said.

Seven data brokers were arrested from Delhi and the accused had been operating through three companies (call centers) in Noida and other places. So far it has been found that the accused sold data to at least 100 fraudsters. .
“The data had landed in the wrong hands and fraudsters using it had conned and duped several persons of hard earned money. Three cases were registered in Cybercrime police station and while investigating the cases we found the data of the victims was obtained from the online portals and companies illegally,” said the DCP.
