He further said that earlier, the whole process of recruiting used to take four years but now under the leadership of
PM Modi
it has come down to within 1 year.
"Today, India is one of the best countries in the world in terms of utilising the youth energy. In the process of nation-building and contributing to society, India has great potential among its youth. By aligning the youth with the common goal of nation-building and serving the nation with passion and contribution, India can further enhance its potential. Additionally, we combine our resources to achieve the progress we always plan to make. I'm also seeing the energy from the youngsters. They're very excited to step into these new jobs, especially since it has been their dream, and most of the people in the centre from Visakhapatnam come from very rural backgrounds, very lower middle class backgrounds, where there is a lot of struggle for them to achieve this kind of position in the central government. But they are very excited. They are very aspirational, and the whole process of Rozgar Mela, what used to take like 4 years to get a job in the central government right from the initial stages of examination to getting the appointment letter with the direction and the guidance of our honourable Prime Minister, it has come down to within 1 year," he added.

The Union Minister stated that this is a collective effort in nation-building, and each and every one must give their 100 per cent best efforts.
Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi distributed over 51,000 appointment letters to youth appointed in various government departments under Rozgar Mela.
Prime Minister Modi emphasised the role of the youth in strengthening the country's economic system and internal security, developing modern infrastructure, and enhancing the lives of labourers.
He urged the newly appointed youth to work with honesty to support India's progress towards becoming a "Viksit Bharat".
"Today, letters of permanent government jobs have been given to more than 51 thousand youth in various departments of the Central Government. Today, new responsibilities for our youth have begun in different departments of the Government of India. Your responsibility is to strengthen the country's economic system; your responsibility is to strengthen the country's internal security; your responsibility is to build modern infrastructure in the country; your responsibility is to bring fundamental changes in the lives of labourers. The more honest you are with your work, the more it will support India's journey of Viksit Bharat," PM Modi said.
Rozgar Mela is a step to provide meaningful opportunities to the youth for their participation in nation-building and self-empowerment.

CCEA green-flags railway projects worth Rs 6,405 cr
New Delhi: The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Wednesday approved two multi-tracking projects across the Indian Railways network, entailing an investment of Rs. 6,405 crore. The first project relates to the doubling of the 133 km Koderma–Barkakana railway line, which passes through a major coal-producing area of Jharkhand. It also serves as the shortest and efficient rail link between Patna and Ranchi. The second project involves doubling of the 185 km Ballari–Chikjajur railway line, which traverses through Ballari and Chitradurga districts of Karnataka and Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh. The two projects covering seven districts across the states of Jharkhand, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh will increase the existing network of Indian Railways by about 318 km and are expected to generate direct employment for about 108 lakh human-days during construction, the official statement said.

Soon, you can't keep your AC temp below 20°C!
New Delhi: India will soon require all new air conditioners to operate between 20°C and 28°C, a move Power Minister Manohar Lal says could save consumers Rs 18,000–20,000 crore in three years. Union Power Minister Manohar Lal Khattar announced that the government is preparing to bring in a fixed temperature range for ACs. The Centre's new rule will apply to all air conditioners, whether used at home or in workplaces. Many countries have already brought in similar limits, either through official orders or public guidelines, especially in offices and public spaces where power use is high. What is the new plan? At a press briefing held in New Delhi, the Union Minister said, 'Regarding air conditioning standards, a new provision is being implemented soon. The temperature standardisation for ACs will be set between 20°C to 28°C, meaning we won't be able to cool below 20°C or warm above 28°C.' 'This is a first-of-its-kind experiment, aiming to standardise temperature settings,' he added. At present, people usually set their air conditioners between 20°C and 22°C. However, the ideal comfort level, according to standard guidelines, is between 24°C and 26°C. The plan will be rolled out shortly, with checks in place to see how well it works. The aim is to encourage consistent use of ACs and cut down the high electricity usage caused by extremely low cooling settings. The Centre's order will fix the temperature range for all air conditioners, whether at home or in businesses. This means that once the rule takes effect, users would not be able to drop the cooling below 20°C or raise the heating past 28°C. Right now, many ACs sold in the market allow temperatures as low as 16°C or 18°C and heating options that go up to 30°C. Under the new rule, manufacturers will have to either update the software or change how the devices are programmed to follow the 20°C–28°C limit. While the government has said the change will be watched closely, details on how it will be enforced across different sectors are yet to be shared. Why did govt take this step? This move is meant to manage how energy is used in homes and offices, especially as India faces growing electricity demand and more frequent, severe heat waves. Khattar called it a 'bold step' to tackle the habit of using air conditioners at very low temperatures, which leads to a lot of power being used. The numbers behind the decision are strong. Even a one-degree rise in AC temperature can lower energy use by about 6%. If the country sets the minimum temperature at 20°C, officials believe it could save up to 3 gigawatts of peak demand, Pankaj Agarwal, the ministry's top official, said. This change also fits into a wider national push for using energy in a more balanced way. As more people from the middle class buy air conditioners and cities grow, electricity use is rising sharply during the summer months. The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) said most people in India tend to set their ACs at 20–21°C, lower than needed for basic comfort. This not only increases power bills but also leads to more pollution, as much of India's electricity still comes from coal-based plants. By setting a lower limit of 20°C for cooling and 28°C for heating, the government wants to make ACs more efficient, reduce the pressure on the electricity grid, lower emissions, and shift how people think about using cooling systems. The aim is not just to change how machines work, but to change how people use them, encouraging smarter, more responsible choices. A study from the University of California, Berkeley, found that tougher energy-saving rules for ACs could help India avoid 60 gigawatts of extra electricity demand by 2035. This could also save up to 7.5 trillion rupees ($88 billion) in the cost of building new power plants and grid systems. How will it impact consumers? The Bureau of Energy Efficiency has been pushing for better air conditioning habits for years. Their data shows that raising the AC temperature by just one degree can cut power use by around 6%. That means going from 20°C to 24°C could save up to 24% in energy use. Over the course of one summer, this could lead to much lower electricity bills and take a big load off the power grid. Many people may not realise that cooling a room to 16°C in a hot, humid country like India is unnecessary, and not great for your health. Experts say the best temperature for comfort indoors is between 24°C and 26°C, especially when you account for humidity, fresh air, and regular indoor clothing. These new rules, then, match closely with actual comfort levels. They do not force people to feel too warm; they just push for more sensible, healthier use of air conditioners.

With double engine sarkar, AP's development is galloping: Bandi
Tirupati: 'With the double engine Sarkar, Andhra Pradesh State is witnessing rapid development overcoming its crisis,' stated Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar. Speaking at a meeting held on the completion of 11 years of the Narendra Modi-led government, here on Wednesday, the Union Minister claimed that Andhra Pradesh is now receiving maximum financial support from the Centre because the same alliance NDA is ruling both at the State and Centre. Giving detailed account on the liberal support from the Centre, he said about Rs 54,000 crore, including Rs 22,000 crore through bonds, Rs 15,000 crore from World Bank, Rs 12,000 crore from HUDCO and Rs 5,000 crore from German Bank were sanctioned for Amaravati. PM Modi during his recent visit to Vizag, initiated Rs 2 lakh crore development initiatives State-wide, he added. Similarly, Modi also initiated Rs 15,000 crore worth development works under Amaravati reconstruction programme. Regarding Vizag steel plant, Rs 11,444 crore were sanctioned to help the steel plant overcome its losses and achieve normal functioning, he informed. Sanjay said after the Modi government came to power for the third time, the Centre released Rs 12,157 crore under Polavaram project advance funds. Further, under the national industrial corridor development programme (NICDP), Rs 28,602 crore plan was approved to set up 12 industrial estates in Vorvakal and Kopparthi areas. Air services commenced in Kurnool airport and also in Kadapa under Udan scheme covering 17 new air routes in the State. He also said that road facilities are being improved in a big way in the State with Rs 14,000 crore including Bengaluru - Kadapa - Vijayawada express highway and Anantapur – Pendurthi - Anakapalli national highway extension construction works, which were recently inaugurated by PM Modi. The Union Minister said the State got a record-level development in railways with the Centre allocating Rs 9,417 crore in 2024-2025 budget, which is 11 times higher than the Rs 886 crore provided by the Congress government in 2009-2014. Bandi Sanjay planted saplings in police parade grounds after receiving a guard of honour from the district police. Party leaders Bhanu Prakash Reddy, Samanchi Srinivas, Munisubrahmanyam, Gundala Gopinath, P Chandra Sekhar and others were present.
