Tripura announces Rs 132 crore project to boost production of ‘state fruit' Queen Pineapple
Tripura Agriculture Minister Ratan Lal Nath Friday announced a Rs 132 crore project to boost the income of farmers by promoting the cultivation of Queen Pineapple. Addressing media persons at the 5th CII Tripura Pineapple Festival held in Agartala, Nath said, 'We are cultivating different fruits over 58,491 hectares, and pineapple alone is grown in over 11,000 hectares. Internationally, pineapple is the third most important tropical fruit after banana and citrus. Tripura is renowned for its Queen and Kew varieties of pineapple that thrive in the hilly, humid climate with minimal chemical intervention. These pineapples are golden yellow in appearance and emit a distinct pleasant aroma.' 'The Queen Pineapple has received the GI (Geographical Indication) tag. This recognition highlights the unique quality and distinctiveness of the Queen variety grown in the state… This initiative has strengthened the branding and export potential of Tripura's pineapple. It has also been declared as the state fruit of Tripura in 2018,' added the minister.

Army gives nod for bus stand shift to Curzon Park for Purple Line stn work
1 2 Kolkata: The defence ministry has given the green signal to shift the Esplanade bus stand, popularly known as the L20 stand, to Curzon Park, paving the way for the construction of the Joka-Eden Gardens Metro corridor. From its current location, the bus stand will be temporarily relocated to a space behind the East-West Metro's Esplanade station at Curzon Park, covering 3,224 sq m, nearly 1,000 sq m more than the 2,311 sq m patch, which was earlier selected at the Dufferin Road-RR Avenue crossing. The permission to move the bus stand out of the Purple Line's working zone at Esplanade gives implementing agency RVNL more construction room and allows it to go ahead with its original plans. The station construction layout at Esplanade was changed when the Army had withheld the permission to relocate the Esplanade bus stand to Curzon Park and Kolkata Police found the smaller option opposite Dufferin Road for the new L20 bus stand.

For the working permission in Curzon Park, RVNL will have to pay the MoD an annual lease rent of Rs 37.5 lakh.

Review Gardenia debt plan, Noida Authority urges UP govt
Noida: Noida Authority has decided to write to the state govt to reconsider its order allowing Gardenia Aims Developers to clear a portion of its dues through proceeds generated from the auction of 122 sealed flats in its Sector 46 project. The Authority said that if allowed, the move would contradict a cabinet-approved policy for stalled projects, which requires defaulting builders to deposit 25% of dues before accessing relief measures. At a meeting on June 14, the Authority board, after examining various aspects of the govt's May 29 order, said that it conflicted with the provisions of the rehabilitation plan for stalled projects decided in Dec 2023. The govt order, under Section 41(3) of the Uttar Pradesh Urban Planning and Development Act, allowed the builder to use proceeds from the auction of 122 sealed flats in Gardenia Glory in Sector 46 to fulfil this 25% requirement. You Can Also Check: Noida AQI | Weather in Noida | Bank Holidays in Noida | Public Holidays in Noida In 2009, Gardenia Aims was allotted 51,719sqm. The builder deposited around Rs 60 crore against a premium of Rs 151 crore. However, the project faced delays, with only 20 of 21 approved towers completed. Of the 1,586 approved units, just 551 received occupancy certificates by Oct 2019. By Dec 2023, total dues stood at Rs 692 crore, with a Rs 130 crore Covid-related rebate. On March 13, 2024, the Authority demanded Rs 140.5 crore (25% of recalculated dues), but no payment was made. On June 5, 2024, the Authority ordered the auction of 122 sealed flats and cancelled the lease of a separate 150-acre commercial plot. The builder secured a stay from a commercial court in Noida on June 19, 2024, prompting the Authority to approach the Allahabad HC. The case remains sub judice. Separately, the builder filed a revision petition. On May 29, the principal secretary of the industrial development department ruled that the Authority could proceed with the auction. The plot would then be restored without fees, and zero-period benefits would be considered per the Dec 2023 policy. Any shortfall would be borne by the builder. Importantly, this order also directed the Authority to decide on the builder's proposal within one month. In response, the builder submitted a written proposal and appeared for a hearing before the addition al CEO. They also urged the Authority that it withdrew its earlier case from the commercial court. The Authority then wrote to the govt, stating that any action on the builder's proposal would require guidance from its board, which sought reconsideration of the govt order.
