Madhya Pradesh to allow women work two shifts in factories - Hindustan Times

It will be good initiative towards women's welfare but as we know the exploitation of labour in industrial sector is not satisfactory. Is Government has planned / designed any safety measures for the same. What system, procedures and other things should be provided and completed by industrial house before inviting women's in night shifts. Ways to protect the dignity of women's must be maintained before any organization is allowed for 2nd shift of working of women's at its place

Also our social system will have a great impact of it because generally Indian Families are headed by Sr. Male of the house, it will definitely increase more burden on him keeping in view the status of unemployment situation in country. The decision will have great impact on our social and family system.

Pepsi accused of over extraction of groundwater - India - The Times of India

As per the news on Times of India website the state government of kerala has made a report regarding over extraction of ground water by Pepsi at its plant in Kerala. It is good that now the state government is reviewing the working of Pepsi Plant for over extraction of ground water. But the response of company to media is that is using innovative recycling and recharging techniques to save water and brought down the usage by 60% in last few years. Also the company has received environment and water management awards.



I would only say that company should be allowed to operate but must be on the strict norms that it will invest its resources for recharge of water not only in plant but also in surrounding areas of plant. The performance and result must be verified at regular intervals. Also Pepsi should try to spread awareness in that area for improve of environment and provide funds to the local NGO's and start some project to increase ground water levels.

Government to table nuclear bill amid fierce opposition- Hindustan Times

As per news on Hindustan Times News website government is going to present nuclear bill in parliament today which gives benefits to nuclear equipment / material suppliers in case of any accident. Simply in case of any Bhopal Gas Tragedy like accident the equipment / material supplier will only have limited amount of liability and civilians / law of land will not be able to penalize the supplier crossing that limit and may be bill also says that it will not be a criminal offence. The bill is commitment made in 123 civil nuclear agreement with USA. Ultimately in case of any problem civilians will be not able to get any compensation and in view of political interest at last the compensation will be paid from the Government of India pocket means complete loss to the nation and whole profit to the suppliers.

If this bill is a requirement of 123 civil nuclear agreement with USA then i will say the interest of nation is not protected in 123 civil nuclear agreement and US negotiators has surely dictated it and able to manage / save the interest of America.

I strongly oppose it.

Save Aravali

Their is a news on Times of India website that government is going to recover amount of rehabilitation from offenders. It is really good if government successfully recovers amount of rehabilitation from the offenders who created havoc in this area for the own individual interest. But it is a known fact to local peoples that most of these mines are under the command of political leaders and main source of income for them. Due to political power in their hand i think it will be not possible for the government to recover the amount from offenders and later on matter will thrown in to cold bag.

But even now if mining is stopped and environment laws are enforced strictly and rehabilitation project are implemented on war scale then we will be definately able to save the environment of Aravali Hills. Also all the existing residential / commercial / industrial set up in aravali are must be forced to take measures to stop the pollution generated by them. Also some environment tax must be imposed on all the setup existing in aravali hills and additional charges must be imposed on new projects asking permission to operate in these hills.

Metro to Manesar on the Cards (Around town)

As per the news on Indian Express website Captain Ajay Singh Yadav, State Finance Minister, Govt. of Haryana announced in his budget speech on Wednesday that Government is planning to extend Metro to Manesar in addition to extension of Delhi Metro to Faridabad. He mentioned that linking of Bahadurgarh with Mundka border is also under process and Gurgaon Delhi Metro link is near completion.

The expansion of Metro in nearby areas of Delhi will increase connectivity and reduce traveling time for Delhi for the people living in surrounding areas of Delhi. It will definitely increase business / service sector scope the city. Metro will also contribute to control increasing level of pollution in NCR region.

Hope that after completion of Commonwealth Games infrastructure projects will not put in to cold bags.

It is very important to complete the project on time as it saves taxpayers money.

Another student commits suicide for separate Telangana

Few hours back i read in news that one more student at Osmania University committed suicide in support of creation of separate Telangana state. Reason behind Suicide of students is motivation/links/false impression in mind of students created by few people that they will have better life prospect after creation of Telangana but I think it is not true as it will lead to wastage of taxpayers money. More Public money need to be spent for One Chief Minister, his cabinet & other ministers security, infrastructure, pay & allowances and support staff required. Also Chief other bureaucratic staff required for separate state. More chances of corruption.

It is sad that political peoples have involved the young generation (students) for their malign interest and greediness for power.

Badapur Flyover

The construction of flyover from Badarpur Thermal Power Station, Delhi to Sector-37, Faridabad covering Badarpur, Delhi Haryana Border, Jaitpur crossing is in full swing. It seems that government is trying to complete the flyover very soon. The contractor company executing this work HCC is a very well known company. This company has constructed the well known Bandra Worli Mumbai Sea link bridge. After looking at the speed of work and progress of last 2-3 months i am hopeful that the flyover will complete before scheduled date of completion.

Parallel to it construction of Delhi Metro is also going in Mohan Co-operative Industrial Area at Mathura Road NH-2 Highway.

But in both project it should be kept in mind that quality should not be compromised and precautions and safety measures should be followed to avoid any accident during and after period of construction as some accidents had already taken place at Delhi Metro construction site.

After Start of Badarpur Flyover Jam problem at Badarpur border will solve and peoples commuting between Delhi and Faridabad will not face traffic jam problem. Also it will save lot of time and Flyover will contribute to better development of the surrounding area.
