Hyderabad: Irrigated lands plantation workshop conducted

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Chief Secretary Santhi Kumari on Wednesday participated in a workshop on plantations on irrigation lands as a part of the Telangana ku Haritha Haaram program.
Speaking at the meeting she said “The program has not only rejuvenated degraded forests, it also helped in protecting forests from threats such as smuggling, encroachments, fire and grazing. The green cover in the state has increased by 7.7 percent. A perceptible change in the landscape of the state both in urban and rural areas is also visible”.
As per orders from the Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, plantations were taken up on irrigation lands from last year. In order to assess the feasibility for taking up plantations, joint field visits were conducted by district level teams, said a press release.

The eight district teams suggested a draft model action plan for taking up block and linear plantations which was presented during the workshop on Wednesday.
Chief Secretary directed the district officials to prepare a micro plan for block plantation in their respective districts.
“While there is huge potential for canal bund plantation, commercially valuable fruit bearing plans should be taken up in block plantations which will not only increase greenery but will also provide revenue to the panchayats,” said Santhi Kumari.
She said that plant species like bamboo, which will generate income for number of years, should be encouraged.
Additional collectors, district forest officers and irrigation officials of Jogulamba Gadwal, Nizamabad, Mahbubunagar, Medak, Nagarkurnool, Rajanna Sircilla, Siddipet and Suryapet districts attended the workshop.

IAF takes charge; C-130J aircraft lands in Port Sudan for evacuation operations

[ad_1]
Khartoum: Amid ongoing conflict, Indian Air Force aircraft have landed in Port Sudan for evacuation operations, the Ministry of External Affairs official spokesperson Arindam Bagchi informed on Tuesday.
Indian Air Force’s C-130J aircraft have reached Sudan to evacuate stranded Indians as the process of evacuations continues in the violence-hit North African country.
“#OperationKaveri takes to the skies. IAF C-130J aircraft lands in Port Sudan to undertake evacuation operations,” Bagchi tweeted, as he informed about the same.

Earlier today (local time), Indians stranded in Sudan departed from the conflict-torn country in the first phase of ‘Operation Kaveri’. The third Saryu-class patrol vessel of the Indian Navy, INS Sumedha with 278 people onboard departed from Port Sudan for Jeddah.
Moreover, Union Minister of State for External Affairs V Muraleedharan on Tuesday inspected the transit facility at the International Indian School, Jeddah where Indians evacuated from Sudan will be received & put up briefly before arriving in India.
“Inspected transit facility @IndianPage,Jeddah where Indians evacuated from Sudan will be received & put up briefly before travel to India. It is fully equipped incl with mattresses, provisions, fresh meals,toilets, medical facilities, Wifi. Has 24*7 control room. #OperationKaveri,” the MoS wrote on Twitter.
As the fighting between the Sudanese Army and paramilitary groups intensified in the capital Khartoum, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar informed on Monday that its ‘Operation Kaveri’ to evacuate its citizens from battle-torn Sudan is underway and about 500 Indians had reached Port Sudan.
India has launched “Operation Kaveri” to bring back stranded Indians from the war-torn Sudan.

Meanwhile, Indian Navy’s INS Teg on Tuesday joined Operation Kaveri to help boost the ongoing evacuation of Indians stranded in Sudan. The frigate on Tuesday arrived at Port Sudan with additional officials and essential relief supplies for stranded Indians, a senior MEA official said.
“INS Teg joins #OperationKaveri. Arrives at Port Sudan with additional officials and essential relief supplies for stranded Indians,” Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) official spokesperson Arindam Bagchi tweeted on Tuesday.
“Will boost ongoing evacuation efforts by Embassy Camp Office at Port Sudan,” Bagchi further tweeted.
INS Teg is the fourth Talwar-class frigate constructed for the Indian Navy.
In a recent development, warring factions in Sudan have agreed to a 72-hour ceasefire on Monday after the US and Saudi Arabia mediated the truce while countries are engaged in evacuating their citizens from the country.
Previously agreed ceasefires have broken down, if the new three-day cessation of fighting holds, it could create an opportunity to get much-needed critical resources like food and medical supplies to those in need, reported CNN.

Efforts on to have single database for all lands in Andhra

[ad_1]
Amaravati: The Andhra Pradesh government is taking measures to ensure that there will be only one database for all the lands in the state, Special Chief Secretary (Revenue) and Chief Commissioner-land administration (CCLA) G Sai Prasad has said.
Over the past two years, Prasad said several reforms have been effected in the Revenue department to make services easy for the people.
“As part of these efforts, 50 lakh land records out of the 2.74 crore have been rectified. Earlier, everybody used to manipulate survey numbers and meddle with the existing ones but now these interventions will not be possible,” he said in a release on Friday.

According to him, nearly three per cent of the applications made to transfer mutations have overshot the service level agreement (SLA) time limit while 12 percent have been rejected, unlike 50 per cent and 30 per cent respectively a year ago.
Further, the CCLA noted that the law has been amended to transfer the power to alter revenue records from tahsildhars (MROs) to deputy collectors (RDOs).
He observed that the issue of resolving mutation applications has reached a crucial stage as a result of unrelenting auditing efforts at the district and state levels.
Moreover, Prasad said 12 tahsildars were dismissed from service and 13 more were demoted as deputy tahsildars for manipulating land records in the past one year.
Meanwhile, the special chief secretary said registration services have commenced at the village secretariats of 2,000 villages where first phase of resurvey has been completed, including the actual completion of 1,798 registrations.

Likewise, he highlighted that following the first phase of resurvey, 2 lakh mutations gave rise to 4 lakh subdivisions, which will result in 7.8 lakh people receiving land rights documents.
Prasad said Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has directed officials to install survey stones in the 2,000 villages by May 20 where the first phase survey was over, even as 13.5 lakh stones have already been installed.
In addition to the 295 registration offices conducting registration services across the state, Prasad said registration seva kendras will also be started in some urban areas.

According to the excise department officials, the incident was reported to have happened at a liquor outlet in Roza Jalalpur area of Bisrakh.

On the basis of the evidence, action was taken against the liquor seller Ravi Singh and an FIR was lodged at the local police station under Section 64 (overrating) of the Excise Act and IPC 408 (breach of trust by clerk or servant) after which he was arrested and sent to jail, Shahi said.
District Excise Officer Rakesh Bahadur Singh said a penalty of Rs 75,000 has also been issued to the licensee of the liquor store, identified as Surender Singh, over violation of rules. He has also been warned of strict action on repetition of the offence.
“In case of overrating of liquor at licensed outlets, the first time penalty is Rs 75,000, the second time penalty is Rs 1.50 lakh and if it happens for the third time, the excise department can cancel the licence of the liquor outlet,” Singh told PTI.
“We will ensure strict action against sellers or outlets found working in violation of Excise rules and it could lead to cancellation of liquor licence also,” the DEO said.
