Private LPS bus operators face parking problems
However, they were not allotted a parking spot when the govt shifted the Narayan Singh Circle bus stand to Transport Nagar on April 1.
"Since April 1, the state govt is showing a stepmotherly attitude towards us. Unlike Rajasthan State Roadways Transport Corporation (RSRTC) or govt buses and private buses, they have not demarcated any space for us to use as a bus stand. With no designated place, our drivers are trying to pick up passengers from wherever it is possible.
We ended up paying fines of over Rs 1 lakh in the last three and a half months due to no-parking cases," said Kailash Chand Sharma, president of the union of LPS operators.
RTO officials from the regional transport office (RTO) refuted the claims and stated that all private buses had been allocated space in Transport Nagar, including those under the LPS. They admitted that there is a space crunch, and the govt is expanding the area of the private bus stand right next to the Bajri Mandi.

photoDetails english 2927330 Updated:Jul 06, 2025, 09:34 AM IST Net Worth Overview (2025) 1 / 10 As of 2025, Shubman Gill's estimated net worth stands between Rs 32 to Rs 34 crore (approximately 4-6 million dollars). This includes his IPL earnings, central BCCI contract, match fees, and several lucrative brand endorsements. IPL Journey and Salary 2 / 10 Gill's journey in the Indian Premier League began with the Kolkata Knight Riders in 2018 when he was bought for Rs 1.8 crore. He remained with KKR until 2021 before joining Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2022 mega auction for Rs 8 crore. GT retained him for Rs 16.5 crore in IPL 2025, making him one of the highest-paid players in the league. Earnings from BCCI Contracts 3 / 10 Apart from IPL riches, Shubman Gill is also on a Grade A central contract with the BCCI. This entitles him to an annual salary of ₹5 crore. In addition to this base amount, he receives match fees for every Test, ODI, and T20I he plays, Rs 15 lakh per Test, Rs 6 lakh per ODI, and Rs 3 lakh per T20I. Brand Endorsements and Collaborations 4 / 10 Gill is one of the most in-demand faces for endorsements among Gen Z cricketers. He currently endorses top-tier brands including TATA Capital, Gillette, CEAT Tyres, Beats by Dr. Dre, BharatPe, My11Circle, and MRF. Lifestyle, Cars, and Assets 5 / 10 Known for his humble roots, Shubman Gill owns a lavish residence in his hometown of Ferozpur, Punjab. His collection includes a stylish Range Rover SUV and a rugged Mahindra Thar. Total Earnings Breakdown 6 / 10 To break down his known earnings: Shubman has made approximately Rs 26.5 crore from the IPL alone so far (Rs 1.8 crore with KKR and Rs 24.7 crore with Gujarat Titans). His BCCI earnings, both annual and match-related, are estimated at around Rs 6 crore in a year where he plays consistently. Add to that his endorsements, which could bring in Rs 2–3 crore annually, and Gill's net worth comfortably crosses the Rs 32–34 crore mark. Recent Performance vs England (Edgbaston 2025) 7 / 10 In July 2025, Shubman Gill delivered a career-defining performance in the second Test against England at Edgbaston. Scoring 269 runs in the first innings and 161 in the second, Gill registered a combined total of 430 runs in a single Test match, becoming the second-highest run-scorer ever in a Test, behind only Graham Gooch's 456. Record-Breaking Test Feats 8 / 10 Gill's 430-run effort made him the first Indian cricketer in history to score more than 400 runs in a Test match, breaking Sunil Gavaskar's record of 344 runs. He also became the first batter ever to score 250+ and 150+ in the same match. Captain's Class and Match Impact 9 / 10 Shubman's innings not only set personal records but also had a match-winning impact. As captain, he led India to a massive second-innings declaration of 427/6, setting England a target of 608 runs. His stroke play, patience, and temperament drew praise from all quarters. The Road Ahead: Legacy in the Making 10 / 10 At just 25 years old, Gill is already living up to, and in some cases, surpassing expectations set upon him when he first emerged from India's U-19 setup. His on-field excellence is translating into off-field wealth and stature. With his market value growing and performances like the one in Edgbaston boosting his global brand appeal, Shubman Gill's future looks not only bright but legendary.
