Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday inaugurated the 6th India Mobile Congress at Pragati Maidan in Delhi and launched the 5G internet services.
The three major telecom operators — Reliance Jio, Airtel and Vodaphone-Idea — demonstrated one use case of the next generation of the internet to PM Modi. Reliance Jio chairman Akash Ambani gave a demo to PM Modi who wore AI-powered glasses. The PM was shown the blazing fast speed of the new generation of internet which is expected to revolutionize the world.
In the first phase of the 5G internet roll-out, 13 cities will get a new service. These are Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, Chennai, Delhi, Gandhinagar, Gurugram, Hyderabad, Jamnagar, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai and Pune.
Today, four cities will get the internet. These are Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai. In Delhi, some areas will receive 5G speeds.
The overall rollout of the internet will take several months.
It is expected that the prices of 5G internet tariffs would be comparable to the 4G network.
Reliance, Airtel, Vodaphone Idea and the Adani group were the four major bidders for the 5G spectrum auction. They had bid Rs 1.50 lakh crore for the spectrum.
Reliance Jio claims India would be the fastest country to adopt the 5G internet. They claim to extend 5G coverage across the country by 2023.
Airtel intends to provide full coverage by 2024.
It is expected that the 5G internet will be 10 times faster than 4G internet.
Mohammed Siraj replaces Bumrah for T20I series against SA
Mohammed Siraj on Friday replaced injured pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah for India’s remaining two T20 International matches against the visiting South African team.
Bumrah was on Thursday ruled out of the upcoming T20 World Cup due to a back stress fracture.
“The All-India Senior Selection Committee named Mohd. Siraj as replacement for injured Jasprit Bumrah for the remainder of the T20I series against South Africa,” BCCI secretary Jay Shah said in the statement on Friday.
“Bumrah has sustained a back injury and is currently under the supervision of the BCCI Medical Team.”
The 28-year-old Siraj, a right-arm pacer, has so far played in five T20Is and picked up five wickets from them. His last T20I match was against Sri Lanka at Dharamsala in February this year.
India lead the three-match T20I series against South Africa 1-0 after a comprehensive eight-wicket win in Thiruvananthapuram on Wednesday. The second and third matches will be played in Guwahati (October 2) and Indore (October 4).
Indian squad for South Africa T20Is: Rohit Sharma (Captain), KL Rahul (vice-captain), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (wicket-keeper), Dinesh Karthik (wicket-keeper), R Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Harshal Patel, Deepak Chahar, Umesh Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Shahbaz Ahmed, Mohd Siraj.
According to PTI, Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out of the T20 World Cup 2022 due to a back injury. Bumrah missed the Asia Cup 2022 as well as the first T20I against South Africa. His injury is a significant setback for India’s chances at the T20 World Cup in 2022.
Jasprit Bumrah, the Indian team’s marquee pacer, has reportedly been ruled out of the T20 World Cup 2022 due to a back injury. Bumrah is said to have suffered a stress fracture in his back, which will take 4 to 6 months to heal.
As per a report in PTI, Bumrah will not require surgery for the serious back injury but his chances of returning for the T20 World Cup are next to none. Bumrah trained only for a single day in Trivandrum and has now reportedly been sent to the NCA.
Bumrah had also missed the Asia Cup 2022 due to an injury before marking his return in the T20I series against Australia. He played the second and the third T20I against Australia but was ruled out of the 1st T20I against South Africa as well.
The pace marksman was reportedly not fully fit to face the Proteas. However, it has recently been reported that Bumrah’s injury is quite serious. Bumrah’s absence from the Indian team is significant, especially given how Indian pacers were thrashed in the Asia Cup.
Arshdeep Singh, Harshal Patel, Deepak Chahar, and Avesh Khan are all talented, but none of them can match Bumrah’s ability with the ball. Though Harshal and Arshdeep performed admirably in Bumrah’s absence against South Africa in Trivandrum on Wednesday, pinning all hopes on them in the T20 World Cup may be asking too much.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is yet to make an official statement on the state of Bumrah’s injury. Some former cricketers even felt that Bumrah’s return for the Australia series was a premature one. A few even recommended giving Bumrah an extended break to have him fit for the T20 World Cup in Australia. But now, it seems the case is already over.
Indian cricket team for T20 World Cup 2022:
KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Rishabh Pant, Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, R Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Rohit Sharma (c), Mohammad Shami, Shreyas Iyer, Ravi Bishnoi, and Deepak Chahar are on standby.
Garba is a form of dance that originated in the state of Gujarat in India. The name is derived from the Sanskrit term Garbha. Many traditional Garba is performed around a centrally lit lamp or a picture or statue of the Goddess Shakti. Traditionally, it is performed during the nine-day Hindu festival Navaratri.
People all over India are seen in traditional attire as they participate in Dandiya Raas and attend the live Garba festival after the Durga Puja. Enthused youngsters join Garba classes and dandiya groups. Women buy Chaniya Cholis while men are seen in Kediyus for the Garba Nights.

A must for every parent, student and teacher. BaalBhaarti stars,Siddharth Jadhav, Nandita Patkar, Usha Naik, Aaryan Menghji, Ravindra Mankani and Abhijeet Khandkekar in special appearence.
Mumbai: The first poster of the much-awaited Marathi film BaalBhaarti is released today. The film is produced by Sphereorigins and directed by Nitin Nandan. The poster’s first look differentiates the film and reaffirms its uniqueness of its subject. The film is set to release on November 11th, 2022.
The poster features its child prodigy Aaryan Menghji, the real hero of the film. Along with him are the leading Marathi stars Siddharth Jadhav, Abhijit Khandkekar and Nandita Patkar. Aaryanis seen in the attire of a great scientist Einstein, Siddharth who plays the role of Aaryan’s father, has an English to Marathi dictionary in his hand, while Nandita wears a helmet with the words Talk In English written on it. This makes the audience keep guessing about the film’s subject. It’s been the talk of the town since the film has been announced.
‘What do parents want for their children the most? The best education they can provide! ’The film highlights this very concern in the most effective manner.
BaalBhaarti tries to mix an entertaining funny story with a heart touching message. The film has set its roots in the Maharashtrian culture and Marathi language.Itputs Marathi language, creativity and innovation on one platter, in the most, light hearted way. Coincidentally the film is in sync with today’s slogan of ‘Hail Innovation’ along with the latest slogan ‘Jai Jawan Jai Kisan Jai Vidnyan and Jai Sanshodhan’.
With a unique blend of abeautiful comforting story, great performances and melodious music, BaalBhaarti is sure to touch the chord of every Maharashtrian household.
Producers Comall and Sunjoy Waddhwa said, “It’s a film made with a lot of conviction and a great deal of passion. We are confident that every family will relate to it and enjoy it.”
Director Nitin Nandan commented that,‘The entire cast and crew have worked very zealously on this film as we allrelate to this film. It’s a film for every parent, student and teacher.’ Very soon the trailer of BaalBhaarti will be launched with great aplomb.
The Supreme Court has held that all women are entitled to safe and legal abortion. The court says the marital status of a woman can’t be grounds to deprive her of the right to abort an unwanted pregnancy.
“Single and unmarried women have the right to abort under the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act & rules till 24 weeks of pregnancy.
“The meaning of rape must be held, including marital rape, for purpose of Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act,” the court rules. The court says the distinction between married and unmarried women is “artificial and constitutionally unsustainable”. It perpetuates the stereotype that only married women indulge in sexual activities, the court said.
A three-judge bench of justices D Y Chandrachud, J B Pardiwala and AS Bopanna had reserved its verdict last month on the issue of interpretation of the MTP Act and said it will allow ‘unmarried’ or ‘single’ woman the benefit of abortion up to 24 weeks.
The court had said last month that it would “fine-tune” the provisions listed under the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act in a manner that there is no discrimination between ‘married’ and ‘unmarried’ women and allow them the benefit of abortion till up to 24 weeks of pregnancy.
A restriction on buying Non-Subsidized domestic LPG cylinders has been imposed. The registered customer will be able to buy only 15 cylinders in a year. The monthly limit is two cylinders.
Earlier the customer not availing subsidy was able toll buy any number of cylinders. The limit for the customers availing subsidy is the same at 12 cylinders in a year. Beyond 12 the customer will have to buy the cylinder at the rate of non-subsidised cylinder.
The restrictions have been imposed following a large number of complaints lodged by the customers.
Good news: Dearness Allowance hiked by 4% for Central Govt employees, pensioners
New Delhi: The Union Cabinet has approved a 4 percent hike in Dearness Allowance (DA) for Central Government employees and pensioners, according to media reports. The announcement will benefit about 47.68 lakh Central Government employees and 68.62 lakh pensioners and is also applicable for civilian employees and those employed in defence services.
After today’s hike of 4 percent, the total DA paid to Central Government employees will reach 38 per cent. DA is a part of the salary which is calculated as a specific percentage of the basic salary which is then added to the basic salary. Since the effective date for the latest dearness announcement hike is July 1, the staff would be paid the arrears with their latest salaries.
The Central Government revises dearness allowance and dearness relief on January 1 and July 1 every year, but this decision is usually announced in March and September.
Previously, in March, the Cabinet had approved the proposal to increase the Dearness Allowance (DA) for Central Government employees and Dearness Relief (DR) for pensioners by 3 per cent to 34 per cent of the basic pay from 31 per cent previously, effective January 1, 2022. The government, at the time, paid employees three months in arrears.
Any changes to the dearness allowance are made as per the accepted formula, which is based on the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission to compensate for the rise in prices. With retail inflation, or consumer price inflation, elevated above the upper-end of the Reserve Bank of India’s target range of 2-6 per cent each month, the DA was hiked by 4 per cent to 38 per cent of basic pay.
All those who are paid based on the 7th Pay Commission will get an increase of Rs 720 in DA on the basic salary of Rs 18,000, and this increase will be Rs 1,000 per month if the basic salary is 25,000. Similarly, those who were getting Rs 50,000 basic salary will now get a benefit of Rs 2,000 per month, and those with a basic salary of Rs 1,00,000 will get a benefit of Rs 4,000 in total salary after the 4 per cent increase in dearness allowance.
The grant of Dearness Relief (DR) to Central Government pensioners and family pensioners will also be applicable at the same revised rate, as it has been fixed for the employees, from July 1. The pension disbursing authorities, including the nationalized banks, will calculate the quantum of DR payable to each pensioner as per the individual case.
The revised rates will be applicable to central government pensioners, civilian central government pensioners/family pensioners, the armed forces pensioners, civilian pensioners paid out of the defence service, all India service pensioners, railway pensioners/family pensioners, and pensioners who are in receipt of provisional pension.

Maharashtra Government to recruit 20,000 police constables
The much-awaited decision on the recruitment of police personnel at the constable level is being fulfilled by the Maharashtra Government. The cabinet took a decision to recruit about 20,000 constables to the police force.
With the growing population and delay in recruiting police personnel, the police force was facing problems in maintaining law and order situation. Crime in the state has also increased.
The decision to recruit 20,000 constables would benefit the police force.
Development Boards: The cabinet on Tuesday also decided to reconstitute the Development Boards for Vidarbha, Marathwada and Rest of Maharashtra. The boards remained vacant for the last several years.
The most affected regions are stated to be Vidarbha and Marathwada. The backlog of the Vidarbha region, as calculated by the Kelkar Committee is difficult to be removed. But it is alleged that even efforts to reduce the backlog were not made. The demand for a separate Vidarbha is growing because of the continuous exploitation of resources from the region and giving nothing in return.

Smart & Tech-savvy: Nitin Gadkari spins a new perspective for real estate development
NAGPUR 26 SEPTEMBER 2022: Real estate has been grappling with various challenges including high cost of finance and rising input costs. At the installation ceremony of the National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) Vidarbha Chapter in Nagpur on 24 September, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari offered simple solutions which would help the industry deal with the challenges.
NAREDCO President Rajan Bandelkar and Dr Niranjan Hiranandani, Vice Chairperson, NAREDCO had mentioned the challenges being faced by real estate, and on the auspicious occasion of installation of the new NAREDCO Vidarbha Chapter, the Hon’ble Minister suggested a change in mindset. First, the location of new projects need not be in locations where land cost was high; he suggested looking at project locations where low-cost housing for common citizens could be done.
Smart & Tech-savvy: Nitin Gadkari spins a new perspective for real estate development
Secondly, he suggested fiscal prudence – not to opt for finance at high rates of interest which would severely impact project viability. Third, he suggested implementing technology which would bring down costs while ensuring quality of construction. He gave the example of opting to use steel fiber instead of steel bars as also technology which enabled safe and secure construction at a much lower cost.
While giving the new NAREDCO Vidharbha Chapter his best wishes, the Hon’ble Minister spoke of the need for real estate to opt for new solutions – like using ethanol in place of diesel; of enhanced usage of Electric Vehicles for transporting material to construction sites – which would help reduce cost of construction.
Referring to new development opportunities from the government, the Hon’ble Minister mentioned 8 new multi modal logistics parks in Maharashtra, which he said real estate developers could play a major role in creating.
Taking a leaf from ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’, he also spoke about infra projects opting for InVits for financing, opening up an investment opportunity for the common man, while ensuring freedom from foreign funding.

A report by global professional services firm Aon says despite global macroeconomic conditions and rising inflation, salaries in India are likely to increase by 10.4 per cent on average in 2023, compared to an actual increase of 10.6 per cent to date in 2022.
Moreover, the pressure on salaries is being retained as the attrition rate for the first half of 2022 continued to be high at 20.3 per cent, only marginally lower than the 21 per cent recorded in 2021. Aon report says this trend is expected to continue for the next few months.
“Despite the global recessionary headwinds and volatile domestic inflation, salary increases projected in India for 2023 are in the double digits,” said Roopank Chaudhary, partner, Human Capital Solutions at Aon in India.
“Business leaders, however, must make decisions that ensure their workforce remains resilient today as well as into the future,” Chaudhary added.
As per the report, with an expected salary hike of 12.8 per cent, e-commerce leads sectors with the highest projected increase, followed by start ups at 12.7 per cent, hi-tech/information technology and information technology-enabled services at 11.3 per cent, and financial institutions at 10.7 per cent.
“As the broader economic circumstances impact the talent landscape, businesses must create holistic rewards strategies unique to their situation and sector to retain and attract the talent they need,” said Jang Bahadur Singh, director, Human Capital Solutions at Aon in India.

NAREDCO Vidarbha Sets The Trend For Structured Real Estate Development
NAGPUR 24 SEPTEMBER 2022: Structured real estate development with a holistic perspective has been the thought process among stake holders in the Vidarbha region. In keeping with this thought process, the National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) Vidarbha chapter commenced activities with the aim of ensuring transparency and accountability in real estate development in the region.
The NAREDCO Vidarbha chapter was inaugurated at a glittering ceremony in Nagpur on 24 September. The event saw Maharashtra’s Deputy CM Shri Devendra Fadnavis laud the formation of the Vidarbha chapter of NAREDCO, saying it would lead to transparency, accountability and make things easier for the home buyer across the Vidarbha region, just as in other parts of the country where RERA has brought in an environment of safe and secure real estate transactions.
He mentioned how the Maharashtra Chief Minister Shri Eknath Shinde was in agreement on the need to create a positive environment for real estate growth, as it reflects upon the economic growth and development. “It should be the larger community which should be the focus of NAREDCO Vidarbha, and not just real estate as an industry,” he added. Mentioning that Vidarbha real estate would gain from the Samruddhi Mahamarg, with logistics and warehousing becoming the next big thing, with expressway linkages to Goa, Hyderabad and Delhi making Vidarbha and Nagpur the centre-point in India’s economic growth story. “Expressways like the Samruddhi Mahamarg open up vistas of real estate development, including townships as also ‘sunrise sectors’ including logistics and data centres,” he added.
Earlier, NAREDCO President Rajan Bandelkar spoke about the change which NAREDCO Maharashtra had brought about, and how Devendra Fadnavis had played an important role in the initial stages of setting up MahaRERA. Lauding the contribution of Gautam Chatterjee, the former MahaRERA head, the NAREDCO National President said he hoped the same process would be emulated by the Vidarbha chapter, leading to real estate playing its role in accelerating economic growth.
Dr Niranjan Hiranandani, Vice Chairperson, NAREDCO said Vidarbha was poised for economic growth, with real estate being the driver. He pointed out that various issues relating to real estate were faced different challenges, leading to delays, which needed resolution. Terming Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities as the next frontier which would drive economic growth, Dr Hiranandani said Devendra Fadnavis had done much for Maharashtra’s development, he specifically mentioned how Nagpur’s youngest Mayor had done yeoman work during his tenure as chief minister. He added that there were high expectations from him, and that he hoped this time too, he would ‘work his magic’ leading to the state’s economic growth.
Shri Ghanshyam Dhokne who took over as the first President of the Vidarbha Unit said setting up of the NAREDCO Chapter had created high expectations from all stakeholders in Vidarbha, and he hoped the expectations would come true. “The aim of NAREDCO Vidarbha is to create a structured industry, which will result in economic growth of the region,” he concluded.
ABOUT NAREDCO: National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) was established as an autonomous self-regulatory body in 1998 under the aegis of Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation, Government of India. It is in this year that the Government of India redrafted the National Housing & Habitat Policy, giving due importance to the Housing and Real Estate sector.On September 2013, a branch of NAREDCO was established in Mumbai, Maharashtra by the name NAREDCO WEST. The Vidarbha Chapter was inaugurated on 24 September 2022 in Nagpur.
The Indian housing and real estate sectors and the allied industries hailed the establishment of NAREDCO, as the apex national body for the real estate industry and visualized it as a single platform where Government, industry and public would discuss various problems and opportunities face to face which would result in speedy resolution of issues. It was formed with the mandate to induce transparency and ethics in real estate business and transform the unorganized Indian real estate sector into a matured and globally competitive business sector.
The National Real Estate Development Council strives to be the collective force influencing and shaping the real estate industry. It seeks to be the leading advocate of developing standards for efficient, effective, and ethical real estate business practices, valued by all stakeholders of real estate sector and viewed by them as crucial to their success.
We, the members of Rani Laxmibai Durga Utsav Mandal, have been successfully organizing the Navratri festival for the last 16 years with massive participation of citizens from the entire central India area. Every year, we organise a slew of socio-cultural programmes depicting issues like India’s freedom struggle, illiteracy, autism, and child labour among others. This year, we’re coming up with a theme based pandal titled Swapnalok (Dreamland), which would be exquisitely crafted by artist Nihar Debnath and his big team of workers from Siliguri in West Bengal. The entire team has been camping here at our volleyball ground since the last couple of months for erecting the pandal. The pandal would be first of its kind in entire Maharashtra and would attract heavy crowds from entire central India. Even our beautiful idol is being brought from Kolkata and is crafted by the local artists there. The pandal would remain open for the public from September 26 to October 6.
This year as well, we intend to organize a host of similar programmes like cultural events from children, folk dance, Ras Garba and others. However, the entry to all these events is through invitation only. It would not be open for the visitors. We would also be setting up 25 stalls that would serve various delicacies for the visitors right from juices, tea/coffee to Pav Bhaji, ice cream and other food items. We will be setting up a pictorial gallery depicting the immense contribution of the city headquartered Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to the country’s development, particularly in the inaccessible and inhospitable areas across the country.
Titled ‘Rashtra Seve Cha Amrut Mohotsav’, the gallery would have rare pictures and videos of commendable work done by the Sangh in the last 75 years and its contribution to the nation’s development. An audio-visual gallery would be put up at the gallery.
The mandal also conducts a lot of social activities throughout the year like visiting ‘Matoshree Old Age Home’ near Adasa and helping them with medicines and food grains, and helping the children with books and study material, cleaning the Laxmi Nagar volleyball ground by members themselves where festival is organized under ‘Swach Bharat Abhiyan’ launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and setting up artificial tanks on Laxmi Nagar grounds for immersion of Ganesh Idols to save the precious water bodies from getting polluted every year.
Starting from scratch in 2006, this mandal has grown over the years to become only in entire Central India to host the Navratri Festival with a variety of socio-cultural programmes that had guaranteed footfalls of over 50,000 visitors per day. A dedicated team of about 50 youngsters and elders, which is a right combination of youthful exuberance and experience, work together round ‘o’ clock to make this event a mega success. News cutting in various newspapers speaks about our work. We take the distinction of being the first Mandal in Vidarbha to have its dedicated website – www.laxminagardurga.in. This year as well, we would be hosting many socio-cultural programmes aimed at evoking feelings of patriotism among the masses during the nine-day event. We request you, sir, to join us in this purely noble and charitable cause and help us to make it successful by spreading the message of peace and brotherhood in the society.
Previously, a host of popular figures visited our mandal, including noted yesteryear actress Asha Parekh, union minister for road transport Nitin Gadkari, Maharashtra deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, Rajya Sabha MPs Ajay Sancheti and Vijay Darda and others

New technology transforming lives of those requiring knee replacement
September 22 : Use of Hi, did a minor change in the end. Rest is good to go. Artificial Intelligence, accuracy in implant positioning, customized planning according to requirements of individual patients , 3D visualisation before the procedure ensuring right implant fit, soft tissue balance and overall precision and unparalleled safety is ensuring far better outcomes for the patients. Pune’s Sai Shree hospital which had installed the first Cuvis Joint Robotic System for joint replacement procedures last year has completed a milestone of 500 joint replacement surgeries in a calendar year using this Advanced Automatic and Active Robotic System, a feat achieved for the first time in western India .
Dr. Neeraj Adkar, Managing Director and Chief Joint Replacement Surgeon at Sai Shree Hospital, Pune said that the advanced joint robotic system is a revolutionary technology with an ability to transform lives of patients who are struggling with joint pain. Before this technology came to the fore , the earlier navigation technique involved instruments which had to be hand held by the surgeon. But now with automation, artificial intelligence and lesser human intervention the procedures can be executed with precision. The 3D CT visualisation before the surgery ensures a customised plan for every patient including right implant fit, soft tissue balance, preparing the bone and a range of tasks. The other important benefits include minimum blood loss, reduced post-operative pain, reduced duration of hospital stay and quicker recovery. What is important is better patient outcomes and improved quality of life post-surgery, which are possible with this new technology. The system helps in carrying out the most complex procedures with same precision and consistent results, added Dr. Adkar. Dr.Adkar said that with an increase in life expectancy the number of people with knee / joints will rise significantly. The number will also be fuelled with increasing obesity amongst the youth, sedentary lifestyle, lack of exercise, poor posture as we have seen in the pandemic.Thus it is important to take care of your joints and bones for living independently at any age.
Finally, plans to develop Ajni Railway Station as world-class gain momentum
Tenders have been floated. The last date for submission of e-bids is September 27.
Nagpur: Finally, plans to develop Ajni Railway Station as world-class have gained momentum as the Railway Land Development Authority (RLDA), a statutory authority under the Ministry of Railways, has floated tenders for the project.
The last date for submission of e-bids is September 27. After opening of the tenders, the development work would begin. The work has to be finished 3 years and four months. The estimated cost of the redevelopment project to be done in engineering procurement and construction mode is over Rs 301 crore.
There has been a long-pending demand from passengers and politicians to redevelop Ajni Station into a world-class terminus.
Green building facilities:
The entire project will have green building facilities. The new features that will be part of the Ajni Station redevelopment include a modern entrance on the eastern side with sufficient parking and a circulating area. It will have a wide road connecting to Ajni Road from near Wanjari Nagar flyover. The works include an 18-metre-wide foot over bridge (FOB) connecting the east side entrance to platforms and concourse. Currently, there is no entrance on the eastern side and there is also no FOB to cross over. A G+3 building will be constructed on the east side and later developed into a 9-storey structure.
After the upgradation, the entire project shall have green building features with facilities for reduction in energy consumption during construction as well as operations and maintenance. These are designed with passive energy saving features, which promotes usage of local materials and reuse the existing materials to the extent possible, which generates renewable energy on the Site and which reduces requirement for resources such as water, processing of generated waste, rain water harvesting, etc.
According to the plan, there will be four additional platforms apart from the existing three to handle more trains. The new platforms will not be part of the redevelopment work but their work will be taken up simultaneously with ongoing yard remodelling works by the construction wing.
It is notable that Ajni Railway Station is in the vicinity of Nagpur Railway Station on the Delhi–Chennai line. It is situated at a distance of about 2.8 km from Nagpur Railway Station. Based on the growth rate analysis and the addition of four new platforms, it is envisaged that the daily footfall in the year 2060 will be approximately 50,000 passengers. Apart from the up-gradation of the railway station, a bus terminal catering to multi-modal transport connectivity is also envisaged to be developed in phased manner. The location of Ajni station and adjoining land is most suitable for the development of a multi-modal transport hub. A Metro station already exists adjacent to the west side entrance of the Ajni Railway Station.

Wicketkeeper Matthew Wade struck an unbeaten 43 to lead Australia to a daunting 90 for 5 against the hosts India in the second T2I, which was marred by rain, on Friday.
Australia began with positive intent with the captain Aaron Finch playing the aggressor role.

Aaron Finch motored along though and made a quickfire 31 before being dismissed by Jasprit Bumrah with a trademark yorker. Matthew Wade continued his good form and played some exquisite strokes en route to his 43 runs as he took Australia to the 90-run mark. Axar Patel was the pick of the bowlers, taking two wickets in his 2 overs and conceding just 13 runs.
The toss was postponed for over three hours due to a wet outfield at VCA Stadium. The game eventually began at 9:30 p.m. local time, 2 1/2 hours after the scheduled start of play. India made two changes as a fit-again Jasprit Bumrah replaced Umesh Yadav and Rishabh Pant replaced bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Australia too made two changes, as Daniel Sams and Sean Abbott came in for Nathan Ellis and Josh Inglish.
