JDA to remove Narayan Singh Circle footbridge
2
Jaipur: To facilitate the construction of Jaipur Metro Line 2, the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) will soon remove the pedestrian footbridge at Narayan Singh Circle and beautify the intersection.
The decision came exactly three months after the state govt shifted the bus stand from Narayan Singh Circle to Jawahar Circle in Transport Nagar.
"We will start removing the pedestrian footbridge this week. The elevated corridor of Metro Line 2 will pass through the present ramp of this footbridge. Instead of scrapping the structure, we are going to reinstall the footbridge at the India Gate Tiraha on Tonk Road," said a JDA official.
Once the engineers remove the footbridge, the civic body will start beautifying the signal. Public toilet, all makeshift stalls and parking spots will be removed from this intersection. Although the traffic police have declared the intersection as no parking zone, a few autos and motorbikes (those run on apps) are still parking at this crossing.
"We have asked the department of information technology (DoIT) to install cameras at this crossing.

These are expected to be installed soon," the JDA official added.
The two newly announced bus stands in Transport Nagar—towards Agra Road and Delhi Road—are expected to get a major facelift in the coming months.
While Jaipur Municipal Corporation (Heritage) will install high-mast lights and a few infrastructures for passengers boarding from the stands meant for private buses, the Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation (RSRTC) will improve the infrastructure of the govt bus stand at the corner of Agra Road. RSRTC plans to construct a state-of-the-art terminal building at this bus stand.

After Donald Trump asks Intel CEO to resign, former directors call for a new company; say: Only a dramatic...
Four former Intel board members are backing President Donald Trump's surprise attack on CEO Lip-Bu Tan but are pushing for an even more radical shake-up: spinning off Intel's manufacturing arm into an independent company to secure America's chipmaking dominance . In a collective statement provided to Fortune, former directors Charlene Barshefsky, Reed Hundt, James Plummer, and David Yoffie called for a dramatic restructuring focused on emancipating Intel's "Foundry" business–the manufacturing assets where Intel produces semiconductor chips for its own products and third-party customers. The group pointed out that Intel is on its fourth CEO in seven years with little improvement in results, arguing that only a dramatic break could restore Intel's competitiveness and protect US national security interests. Trump's demand follows security concerns over CEO's China ties by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Access all TV channels anywhere, anytime Techno Mag Learn More Undo The mounting pressure comes after Trump publicly demanded Tan's resignation on Truth Social, calling him "highly conflicted" following Senator Tom Cotton 's warnings about the CEO's extensive Chinese business connections. Cotton's letter revealed that Tan "reportedly controls dozens of Chinese companies," with at least eight having ties to the Chinese People's Liberation Army. Tan defended himself in a memo to Intel employees, stating: "There has been a lot of misinformation circulating about my past roles at Walden International and Cadence Design Systems. I have always operated within the highest legal and ethical standards." The Malaysian-born CEO, who has lived in the US for over 40 years, emphasized his commitment to American national security. Former directors propose foundry split to rival TSMC The former board members' proposal would create a new, independent manufacturing entity with its own CEO and board, positioned as an alternative to Taiwan's TSMC for both commercial and national security requirements. They called for remaining CHIPS Act funds to support the new company and help "persuade American design firms to place orders." Intel has fallen behind competitors like Nvidia and TSMC in recent years, with its chips now two generations behind rivals. The company secured $8 billion in CHIPS Act subsidies–the largest grant to a single company–making Tan's Chinese connections particularly problematic for national security officials as the drama continues to unfold in the semiconductor industry. – AI Masterclass for Students.
