Water pipeline work damages newly built roads in Hubballi

1 2 3 Hubballi: Poorly coordinated infrastructure development has raised concerns among residents along the Gokul Road stretch. The L&T company's ongoing roadworks for the installation of water pipelines have created significant disruption on the newly built cement concrete roads. The road development project from NWKRTC depot to Keshavkunj and Indipump Circle was completed by spending crores under the Central Road Fund (CRF). Local residents expressed their frustration over the lack of integrated planning by the authorities. The digging work, reaching depths of three-and-a-half feet along one side of the road, could potentially compromise the structural integrity of the recently built concrete surface. Engineering experts suggest that such deep trenching adjacent to concrete roads might affect their longevity and stability. The timing of these utility works drew criticism from the public, as the roads were constructed under the CRF just four years ago. Community members argue that proper coordination between various departments could have prevented this situation. They suggest that pipeline installation should have been planned and executed before the road construction. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo The current scenario led to traffic congestion and safety concerns for both pedestrians and vehicles. Municipal authorities face mounting pressure to explain their decision-making process and provide assurance about the road's structural safety after the completion of utility works. Umesh Dushi, a social activist, said the situation highlights the need for better coordination between different civic agencies and comprehensive infrastructure planning. The incident serves as a reminder for authorities to adopt more integrated approaches in future urban development projects. Based on the information, L&T sought permission from the Hubballi Dharwad Municipal Corporation (HDMC) to dig up recently constructed Smart City Mission roads for water pipeline installation. Since HDMC has taken charge of all Smart City Mission initiatives, they are responsible for granting the necessary permissions. Hubballi-Dharwad Central MLA Mahesh Tenginkai expressed disappointment over the digging up of newly developed roads for installing pipelines. He assured that both L&T officials and municipal authorities will be instructed to promptly restore the roads after completing the pipeline work. He noted that for the previous two years, road construction was undertaken only after installing all utility infrastructure.

US Prez says 'very wealthy' group ready to buy TikTok

President Donald Trump said Sunday a group of buyers had been found for TikTok, which faces a looming ban in the United States due to its China ties, adding he could name the purchasers in two weeks. "We have a buyer for TikTok, by the way," Trump said in an interview on Fox's Sunday Morning Futures. "Very wealthy people. It's a group of wealthy people," the President said, without revealing more except to say he would make their identities known "in about two weeks." The President also said he would likely need "China approval" for the sale, "and I think President Xi (Jinping) will probably do it." TikTok is owned by China-based internet company ByteDance. A federal law requiring TikTok's sale or ban on national security grounds was due to take effect the day before Trump's inauguration on Jan 20. But the Republican, whose 2024 election campaign relied heavily on social media and who has said he is fond of TikTok, put the ban on pause. In mid-June, Trump extended a deadline for the popular video-sharing app by another 90 days to find a non-Chinese buyer or be banned in the US.

Trump says he doesn't expect to extend July 9 tariff deadline

Washington: US President Donald Trump said he is not planning to extend a 90-day pause on tariffs on most nations beyond July 9, when the negotiating period he set would expire, and his administration will notify countries that the trade penalties will take effect unless there are deals with the United States. "I don't think I'll need to," he said in an interview on Fox News's Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo that was taped Friday. He then added, "I could, no big deal." Letters will start going out "pretty soon" before the approaching deadline, he said. "We'll look at how a country treats us - are they good, are they not so good - some countries we don't care, we'll just send a high number out," Trump told Fox News. Those letters, he said, would say, "Congratulations, we're allowing you to shop in the United States of America, you're going to pay a 25% tariff, or a 35% or a 50% or 10%." Trump had played down the deadline at a White House news conference Friday by noting how difficult it would be to work out separate deals with each nation. The administration had set a goal of reaching 90 trade deals in 90 days. Negotiations continue, but "there's 200 countries, you can't talk to all of them," the President said in the interview. France confident of EU deal French finance minister Eric Lombard said the European Union can clinch some form of a trade agreement with the US before a July 9 deadline, when Washington is set to impose a 50% tariff on nearly all EU products. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo "From the experience of the last few months, we can clearly see that the US is in on the deal," Lombard said in an interview Sunday with La Tribune Dimanche newspaper. As part of the negotiations between the EU and Washington, "there may be discussions on energy, particularly on liquefied natural gas," he said. "Europe is still buying Russian LNG. Three LNG liquefaction plants are under construction in the Gulf of Mexico. We can therefore increase our imports of American gas, and this could be used to avoid the 10% increase in customs tariffs," Lombard added.
