Under “My Youth My Pride, Har Din Khel Har Ek Kay Liye Khel”, he said, nearly 50 lakh youth have participated in different sports activities this year.
Under Digital J&K initiative, he said, 445 online services are being provided through
E-UNNAT portal.225 e-services have been integrated with Rapid Assessment System for real time feedback on quality of service delivery. “All the online services have been linked with the Public Service Guarantee Act in J&K.”

Hyderabad: Zoo Park to Aramghar flyover work moving at snail’s pace
[ad_1]
Hyderabad: The construction of the much awaited-flyover from Zoo Park to Aramghar, Hyderabad is running behind the schedule and it is expected to take another year to complete.
As the work for the flyover is moving at a snail’s pace, it is most likely to miss the target of completing it by March 2023.
Earlier, the GHMC undertook road-widening work in the area to facilitate the project. However, due to damaged roads and trenches on it at a narrow stretch of Shivrampally, commuters are facing inconvenience.
Moreover, the damaged road due to the ongoing construction of the flyover poses a threat to two-wheelers, and many of them are losing balance while driving.
Though once completed, the flyover will significantly ease traffic congestion and reduce travel time between Zoo Park and Aramghar, until then, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) needs to ensure the safety of commuters by repairing the road at the earliest.

Hyderabad Zoo Park to Aramghar to be second largest flyover
The flyover which is a part of the strategic road development plan (SRDP) is being built at an estimated cost of Rs. 636.80 crores. It is being raised on 119 pillars and will cover a distance of 4.08 kilometers.
Once completed, it will be the second longest flyover in Hyderabad after PV Narasimha Rao Expressway which connects Mehdipatnam and Hyderabad Airport.
With the inauguration of the six-lane flyover, the flow of traffic from Zoo Park, old city to Hyderabad Airport, Mahboobnagar, Kurnool, Anantapur, and Bengaluru will become smooth.

Earlier, after inspecting the construction of the flyover, the then chief secretary Somesh Kumar instructed the officials to complete the construction by March 2023.
However, due to the slow construction work at the flyover, meeting the target is unlikely.
Kothaguda flyover inaugurated recently
Last year, Telangana State Minister for Municipal Administration and Urban Development KT Rama Rao inaugurated the Kothaguda multi-level flyover at Botanical Garden Junction in Hyderabad.
Earlier, KTR inaugurated the Shilpa Layout flyover. Both flyovers eased the traffic flow in the city.
Last year, many flyovers were inaugurated in Hyderabad. Some of them are as follows
1. Kothaguda flyover
2. Shilpa Layout flyover
3. Nagole flyover
4. Chandrayangutta flyover
5. Kaithalapur Flyover
6. Bahadurpura flyover

Hyderabad: Secundrabad building gutted in fire being razed at brisk pace

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Around 10 to 15 percent of the commercial building at Secundrabad that was gutted in fire on January 19, was reportedly brought down with the help of a long breaker hydraulic crane by evening on Friday.
With the demolishing team working at a brisk pace since Thursday, the process is expected to be completed within five to six more days.
The work started from the top floors with around 15 workers employed for the task.
A hydraulic crane with a diamond cutter, equipped with a water sprinkler facility, is being used to demolish the building.
The Deccan Knitwear Sports Accessories complex is being pulled down without much human interference, with a foolproof plan with none from the demolition team stepping afoot the building.
Since the corners and joints of the complex building were gutted completely in the fire mishap, they were the first to be pulled down.
Later, cranes started pulling down columns and beams of the structure.
The main roads which lead to the complex were also closed to traffic, as a precautionary measure.

No person was allowed near the demolition site, and other commercial establishments located nearby have been cordoned off for safety.
Massive fire story
A massive fire broke out on January 19 in the building housing the garment store at Nallagutta on Minister Road in Secunderabad.
Two fire service officers were injured while trying to douse the fire, which raged for almost two days.
Three workers Waseem, Zaheer and Junaid were reported missing after a huge fire broke out in the building. Some survivors said the three persons had gone to collect their belongings but were trapped.
Nearly a week after the fire incident, the rescue workers continued to look for remains of the missing persons in the huge rubble.
The skeletal remains of one person were found on January 21 and the same were preserved at Gandhi Hospital for DNA analysis.
