Ozone City: A glimpse into Aligarh's evolving urban landscape

Ozone City: A glimpse into Aligarh's evolving urban landscape

Mint15-07-2025
As Tier 2 cities in India evolve, Aligarh is gradually emerging as a hub for thoughtfully planned urban development. Improved infrastructure, rising demand for organised housing, and strategic location have made it an attractive place for both homebuyers and long-term investors. Among the new developments contributing to this change is Ozone City — a planned township that brings together residential and commercial elements within a structured framework.
Spread across 250+ acres, Ozone City Aligarh is a grand township that is focused on urban planning, combining modern infrastructure, lush green spaces, and world-class amenities. Aligarh Ozone City: Designed for Urban Planning
Designed for functional urban living
Developed by the Ozone Group, Ozone City is contributing significantly to the real estate landscape of Aligarh by offering a mix of residential plots, ready-to-move flats, commercial shops, office spaces, and luxury villas.
Key infrastructure features include: Wide internal roads that support smooth traffic flow
Underground cabling for a clean and hazard-free environment
Rainwater harvesting systems and dedicated sewage treatment
Reliable power and water distribution
24/7 gated security with surveillance coverage
The beginning
Founded in 2005 by entrepreneur Parveen Mangla, Ozone Group was established to deliver metro-standard living in Tier 2 cities. Raised in a humble family in Haryana, Mangla began his career supplying sanitary fittings in Faridabad before launching Ozone Builders and Developers Pvt. Ltd. in 2005. Today, under his guidance, Ozone Group has expanded into hospitality, ropeway tourism, infrastructure, and property management, while continuing to raise the bar in multiple cities across North India.
The township is situated with access to regional highways and is within driving distance from the proposed Jewar International Airport. This places it within the broader regional development corridor aimed at improving connectivity to Delhi-NCR.
Here are some benefits of the location: Proximity to highway routes connecting to the capital region
Reasonable access to future infrastructure such as the airport
Potential interest from developers as regional transport improves
The Golden Estate
Within Ozone City lies The Golden Estate, a premium gated enclave of just 40 luxury villas. Designed for elite living, it features: Concierge-style services such as spa and valet
Sports facilities such as squash and pickleball courts
Golf-cart mobility within the enclave
Cultural spaces like an amphitheatre
Private swimming pools and elevators
The presence of Indian cricketer Rinku Singh among the villa owners has added recognition to the project. Several other homes in this estate are owned by HNIs from Aligarh, reflecting its appeal among discerning buyers.
The project also reflects a broader commitment to social development and sustainability. Its developers actively support initiatives such as the following: A free football academy for aspiring young athletes
Tree plantation campaigns and green environment efforts
On-site use of electric vehicles to reduce emissions
Outreach through education and health-related programs
As Aligarh continues its journey toward becoming a more structured and planned city, developments like this township are setting quiet yet meaningful benchmarks. By blending urban infrastructure with environmental and social awareness, it offers a blueprint for modern living in emerging Indian cities.

Gasification tech a mismatch for India's high ash content coal: Niti

New Delhi: The Niti Aayog has flagged the issue of incompatible gasification technology for the high ash content coal available in India, saying the on-ground progress on coal gasification has been limited despite issuance of letters of award. The government's think tank will soon hold discussions with stakeholder ministries as well as domestic and international experts to select the technology best suited for gasification of Indian coal to support commercial scale and viable deployment. NITI Aayog member VK Saraswat has written to coal secretary Vikram Dev Dutt, highlighting the challenges being faced by the public and the private sector in coal gasification and seeking the views of the coal ministry to firm up the roadmap. ET has seen a copy of the letter. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Tom Cruise's Daughter Is Hands Down The Most Beautiful Woman In The World. The Latest Article Undo The government has set a target to gasify 100 mt coal by 2030 with a proposed investment of about ₹4 lakh crore. In 2024, it launched the ₹8,500 crore viability gap funding scheme to support coal and lignite gasification projects. Following this, it issued letters of award to companies including Bharat Coal Gasification and Chemicals, Coal India , Jindal Steel and Power , New Era Cleantech Solutions and Greta Energy. "Not much progress has taken place so far in terms of actual on-ground deployment of the project majorly due to selection for right coal gasification technologies and robust business models around it," the letter said. Live Events The Aayog is of the view that it is essential to match gasification technology design to feedstock properties for stable operations, energy efficiency and economic viability. Indian coal has high ash content, ranging from 30-45% and a high alumina-silica composition owing to which many global technologies available are unsuitable for gasification of Indian coal without adaptation. Coal gasification is expected to help India achieve energy security and self-reliance, reducing dependence on imports of natural gas, methanol, ammonium nitrate and other products. Coal gasification technology enables conversion of coal into synthetic gas, which can be used to produce downstream products such as methanol, ammonium nitrate, synthetic natural gas and fertilizers.

JeM uses E-wallets to bypass FATF, mini camps to evade Indian military strikes

New Delhi: Hit hard by India during Operation Sindoor that targeted its headquarters and training camps, Pakistan-based Jaish e Mohamed (JeM) has been trying to raise funds using an elaborate digital wallet network and has been decentralising operations to minimise the impact of further Indian strikes on terror establishments across the border. Sources tracking the terrorist organisation said that the outfit has drawn up a PKR 3.9-billion plan to establish a vast 'Markaz' or religious centre network that would replicate the modus used by Lashkar-e-Taiba. This includes setting up 313 new camps to make it more difficult for Indian agencies to track terror operations. The money is being raised using digital wallets that are linked to the family members of JeM leader Masood Azar and agencies have identified at least five such wallets with direct links to the proscribed organisation. This approach is being used to avoid scrutiny from international terror watchers like the FATF that has access only to bank records and would not be able to act on contributions made to an elaborate network of family members. Sources said digital wallets like ' EasyPaisa ' and ' SadaPay ' are being used to collect the funds and these function outside banking networks by allowing wallet-to-wallet and wallet-to-cash transfers. This would make FATF monitoring difficult. Sources added that Azhar's family uses 7 to 8 mobile wallets at any given time and replaces them every four months. After large amounts of money accumulate in the wallets, they are spilt into smaller amounts or are withdrawn as cash. At least 30 new wallets are activated every month. A collection drive for the PKR 3.9 billion plan is currently on, under the garb of creating the Markaz network. Sources however pointed out that by even generous estimates, the total cost of setting up the network would not surpass PKR 1.23 billion. The remaining money is likely to be used for weapon purchases and equipping terrorists aimed at India, with the estimate that this would sustain operations for the next decade.

US citizen residing in Mumbai cheated of 2.7cr, sr bank mngr to be booked

Mumbai: After HC expressed shock over conduct of investigation officer, the state told the Bombay high court it will book a senior manager of Kotak Mahindra Bank in a case where an American citizen (75), who resides in Mumbai and is married to an Indian, was allegedly cheated of nearly Rs 2.7 crore by her relationship manager. Justices Ravindra Ghuge and Gautam Ankhad, on Aug 13, noted that police inspector Sachin Khondre, who registered the FIR narrating Elizabeth Iler's complaint, did not add Sainath Gharse as accused. Iler, retired professor of a New York university, sought direction to D N Nagar police to add IPC Section 409 (criminal breach of trust by a banker) to the FIR and for speedy probe against relationship manager Radheya Waghole, his wife Bhavana and others involved. Her petition said she holds NRE and NRO accounts with Kotak Bank's JVPD branch. Waghole, having access to her finance details and foreign remittances, "manipulated" her into transferring substantial funds under the pretext of secure, bank-approved investments promising high returns. He introduced Bhavana as a financial adviser. They lured her into investing through their two companies. Iler was made to sign blank beneficiary owner forms and share OTPs and digital authorisations. Amounts were transferred to third party entities and their companies.

Her advocate Himanshu Maratkar said as bank officials were involved, the section should have been invoked. The judges said, on perusal of the FIR's contents, prima facie Section 409 is attracted. Iler's complaint indicated a "deceptive role" played by Gharse. He convinced her that depositing the money with Waghole "involved no risk as he is his colleague." Prosecutor Shreekant Gavand said the IO was instructed by the law officer not to invoke Section 409. The zonal DCP concurred with the opinion. Hence, Gharse's name was not mentioned as an accused. "Our judicial conscience is shocked. While four long paragraphs of the complaint clearly indicate the role of Gharse, yet, he has not been added as an accused,'' the judges said. Gavand said while adding Section 409, Gharse will also be added as an accused. The judge disposed of Iler's petition but kept it on Sept 2, to report compliance of the directions.
