  • Hyderabad: Leachate treatment plant is now operational

    Hyderabad: Leachate treatment plant is now operational

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: The 2 MLD (mega-liters per day) capacity leachate treatment plant, built at the cost of Rs 250 crores is now fully operational to resolve the issues associated with Jawaharnagar dump yard.

    The state government’s efforts to tackle the problem took one more leap with the capacity of the treatment plant escalating from 1 MLD to 2 MLD.

    Ramky Infrastructure Ltd was assigned the task of building the plant by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC).

    “The issues at Jawahar Nagar and its vicinity have arisen due to unscientific dumping of waste for decades,” said GHMC officials.

    Special chief secretary of the state, Arvind Kumar on Sunday tweeted that the plant is processing the leachate into acceptable Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) levels.

    Telangana IT minister KT Rama Rao retweeted the update and said, “One more progressive step in containing the problems of legacy dump at Jawahar Nagar. We had completed capping with a cost of Rs 140 crore and now Leachate treatment plant also completed.”

    The BOD and COD are the parameters that assess the efficiency of leachate treatment and are used to recognise the solid waste stabilisation stage in landfills.

    Since Jawaharnagar has been the site of unscientific waste dumping for decades, those living in the vicinities have been facing problems due to the dump yard and airing their grievances which were paid no heed to.

    However, the state government’s efforts to find a lasting solution for the problem is expected to wave off the isssue of foul smell, groundwater pollution, and other hazards triggered from the dump yard.

    Inside India’s first rapid rail service that gets operational in three weeks

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The country’s first rapid rail with amenities similar to an airplane will start running from Sahibabad in Ghaziabad to Duhai Depot from March, 2023.

    It will be run on 17-km stretch of Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Guldhar, Duhai and Duhai depot at a speed of 180 km per hour and tickets for the journey can be availed through mobile phones and card.

    The track on the section has been laid and the work of installation of overhead line equipment is almost done.

    A unique facility that the train will be extending is that a stretcher has been arranged in its last compartment. If a patient is referred from Meerut to Delhi, then a separate coach will be arranged for the same, so that they can be transported at a lower cost of travel.

    Along with this, separate coaches have been arranged for women and separate seats have been prepared for the disabled, which can be folded when not in use.

    The train has adjustable chairs and special arrangements have been made for standing passengers.

    Facilities on board the train include Wi-Fi, mobile-USB charger, large windows, integrated AC system, automatic door control system, luggage storage, driver interaction system, dynamic route map, CCTV and infotainment system.

    Arrangements have been made for parking 13 trains in Duhai yard, so preparations are being made to operate only 13 rapid trains in the first phase, whereas after the construction of the entire route between Delhi and Meerut, a total of 30 rapid trains will be operated.

    The Operation and Command Control Centre of the Rapid Rail Corridor is being made at Duhai Yard in Ghaziabad. Operation and control of all rapid trains running on the entire route will be commanded from the operations centre.

    The objective of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut Rapid Rail Transit System (RRTS) corridor project is to decongest the National Capital Region and to curb vehicular traffic, air pollution and ensure balanced regional development.

    Entire Delhi to Meerut stretch is scheduled to be completed by 2025 in three phases with the first from Sahibabad to Duhai depot to be operational from March, from Sahibabad to Meerut by March 2024 and from Modipuram in Meerut to Sarai Kale Khan in Delhi by 2025.

    The Delhi-Meerut RRTS is a Rs 30,274-crore joint venture of the Centre and the Uttar Pradesh government.

    The Uttar Pradesh government had allocated Rs 1,326 crore for the project in the current financial year.

    According to the RRTS project, 24 stations will be built along the entire corridor.

    Recently in a media interaction, Vinay Kumar Singh, MD, National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) had said that they expect around 8 lakh passengers to travel by this rapid rail daily by 2025.

    Singh said: “Our target is that in 2025, passengers of Delhi will be able to reach Meerut in one hour by rapid rail.”

    As per Detailed Project Report (DPR) estimates, the train fare will be fixed at around Rs 2 per km. The private agency will not have the right to increase the fare later.

    Similar to Metro, the fare will be decided by the committee which is formed under the chairmanship of the judge.

    There will be rapid line connectivity on seven lines of Delhi Metro which will be connected to Munirka, INA and Aerocity.

    According to RRTS, approval has been received from Haryana and Delhi government for the 106 km route from Sarai Kale Khan to SNB for the rapid rail to be built from Sarai Kale Khan to Alwar.

    The Centre’s approval is also expected soon.

    At present, the pre-construction work is underway, so that the construction work can be started soon after getting the approval.

  • Defence Budget: Focus on operational preparedness; thrust on Agniveers’ training

    Defence Budget: Focus on operational preparedness; thrust on Agniveers’ training

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: In the Defence Budget, the focus has been given towards maintaining a high-level of Operational Preparedness of the Services to face the current and future challenges, while the non-salary revenue operational allocation gets a boost of Rs 27,570 crore, with the budgetary outlay under this segment augmented from Rs 62,431 crore in BE 2022-23 to Rs 90,000 crore in BE 2023-24.

    The enhanced allocations in the Budget will also cater to Training Aids and Simulators for Agniveers and ensure that they achieve the set standards of training for induction into the Defence Forces.

    “This will cater to sustenance of weapon systems, platforms including ships/ aircraft and their logistics; boost fleet serviceability; emergency procurement of critical ammunition and spares; procuring/hiring of niche capabilities to mitigate capability gaps wherever required; progress stocking of military reserves, strengthening forward defences, amongst others,” said the Ministry of Defence.

    As a precursor to this increase in the Non-Salary Revenue segment, the government during the Mid-term review had also enhanced the operational allotments of the current financial year by Rs 26,000 crore, which works out as 42 per cent of the present allocation.

    This unprecedented increase in the Revised Estimates 2022-23 has ensured liquidation of the entire carry over liabilities during the current year, thereby, ensuring that there is no dent in next year’s operational outlay of the services.
