IAF Heritage Museum loses altitude as visitor inflow dips
Chandigarh: The initial burst of enthusiasm about the Indian Air Force Heritage Museum in the Tricity seems to be waning. The dedicated Air Force heritage centre launched by Union defence minister Rajnath Singh with much fanfare in May, 2023, has suffered a significant dip in footfall since its inception. Its expansion plan has also remained restricted to paper for over one year. "Initially, Indian Air Force and Chandigarh administration were in talks to expand the IAF Heritage Museum to start its second phase. Preparation of an MoU was discussed and both parties prepared points for the same. However, there has been no progress for more than one year," sources in the Chandigarh administration revealed. Despite the tourist centre boasting of modern paraphernalia like virtual and augmented reality, holograms, simulators, and electromechanical enclosures, the flow of visitors has gone down. Sources in the administration said that visitors from the Tricity thronged the IAF Heritage Museum initially but the inflow started thinning down. Now, most of the visitors are people from outside the Tricity. As per records of the Chandigarh administration, 58,273 people visited the Air Force Museum in the eight months from its inception on May 8, 2023 to December, 2023. From January, 2024 to December, 2024, the number of visitors at the museum located in the heritage building of the city in Sector 18, fell to 48,712. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite?

According to records, Chandigarh administration earned significant revenue from the IAF Heritage Museum. From its launch in May 2023 to the end of July 2025, the authority earned over Rs 1.1 crore, including both entry fee of visitors as well as immersive experiences.

Sunjay Kapur's sister Mandhira Kapur slams 'harsh' treatment of her 80-year-old mother after brother's death, calls move into Priya Sachdev Kapur's Delhi home ‘impractical'
Mandhira Kapur, sister of late Sona Comstar chairman Sunjay J Kapur, has hit out strongly at those sidelining her family in the wake of his sudden demise. In an emotional statement, she vowed to stand firmly by her 80-year-old mother, Rani Kapur, as they fight to keep the family's inheritance from being taken away. Sunjay Kapur's sudden passing Sunjay Kapur, who headed the Rs 30,000-crore mobility tech giant, collapsed while playing polo in London on June 12. The autopsy revealed cardiac arrest as the cause of death. Initial reports had speculated about a bee sting causing complications, adding to the family's shock and confusion. Cease-and-desist dispute with Rani Kapur Soon after, Sona Comstar sent a cease-and-desist notice to Rani Kapur. She alleged that she had been coerced into signing documents endorsing her daughter-in-law, Priya Sachdev Kapur, as a non-executive director of the company. The company, however, claimed that Rani Kapur had not held shares since 2019. Mandhira Kapur called the move 'harsh' and said her mother, who built the company with her late husband, deserved respect. 'She's 80. How about just respecting the fact that her husband and she made this? Today you're telling this 80-year-old woman who's lost everything that she has nothing to do with this company? Is that fair?' She told NDTV. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite? Vitauthority Learn More Undo Family legacy and emotional struggle Mandhira recalled how their father left everything to Rani Kapur and how the family built the company from scratch. She admitted they too were 'finding out' details about trusts and shareholdings only through the media and well-wishers. On suggestions that her mother move into Priya Sachdev Kapur's Delhi home, Mandhira said it was 'impractical' at present: 'It is very tough for mum to even go back to that house. She is not emotionally ready to face the fact that she has lost her son.'

Connectivity drives demand, property prices along Dwarka Expressway double in 4 yrs
Gurgaon: Property prices along the Dwarka Expressway almost doubled over the past four years, making it one of NCR's most rapidly growing regions, an assessment shows. A PropEquity study reported that launch prices along the Dwarka Expressway climbed from Rs 9,434 per sqft in 2020 to Rs 18,668 per sqft in 2024. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Similarly, a typical 3BHK flat's cost went from Rs 1.8 crore in 2022 to Rs 2.6-4 crore this year. Analysts believe real estate costs are likely to climb another 15-20% in the next two years, especially since the corridor is now fully functional. The expressway's 18km portion in the city was inaugurated last year and the 10km Delhi section was launched on Sunday. Among the reasons for this increase in demand and property prices along the Dwarka Expressway is its connectivity with Delhi, including IGI Airport. Launch of the 76km Urban Extension Road-II — which runs from NH-44 (Alipur) to NH-8 via Mundka, Najafgarh and Dwarka with spurs to Sonipat and Bahadurgarh — has given the region another connectivity boost. Pradeep Aggarwal, founder & chairman of another real estate firm Signature Global (India) Ltd., said property prices along the expressway have nearly doubled over the last five years. Surinder Singh, director of GLS Group, which offers parcels and logistics services, said: "These high-speed roads are economic corridors. With Gurgaon–IGI connectivity down to 20 minutes and Delhi–Mumbai Expressway directly linked, this belt will attract corporates, retail majors and service industries, creating a multiplier effect for real estate." Homeowners said the increase in property prices validates their investments. Amit Sharma, who owns a flat in Sector 109 said: "I invested five years ago when the expressway was stuck. With the road finally open, daily commuting has improved drastically — and property values will rise further." Tired of too many ads? go ad free now But a city-based real estate consultant Vishwa Mohan pointed out that the appreciation in prices has "another side to the story". "Rising land and construction costs mean ticket sizes are going up, pushing homeownership further away from the middle-class buyer. Unless developers balance premium launches with mid-income housing, the affordability gap will widen," Mohan said.
