1st time since Independence, Aizawl will be in Indian rly map: Vanlalruati
1 2 3 4 Aizawl: The state capital is set to join the national railway map with the Bairabi-Sairang rail line being operational by June or July due to the concerted efforts made by the Centre led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP's state executive member and vice-president of the party's Aizawl district K Vanlalruati said on Sunday. Vanlalruati informed TOI, "Progress accelerated after the NDA govt came to power in 2014 with Mizoram being first linked to the broad gauge network at Bairabi in 2016. Now, for the first time since Independence, Aizawl city will be in the Indian railway map." Operation of the railway service will mark a historic step for regional connectivity and the Sairang Railway Station is being modernised under the Amrit Bharat Scheme, she said. Underscoring the importance of road communication in the state, she said key projects like the Aizawl-Tuipang Highway and Seling-Champhai Corridor have been completed under the Modi govt and have improved links to Myanmar, Bangladesh as well as neighbouring states such as Assam, Tripura and Manipur, boosting trade and mobility. BJP state unit has been launching an awareness programme on '11 Years Of Modi Govt' across the state to educate the common people on the benefits of the numerous central govt's flagship programmes and schemes, she said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending local enterprise accounting software [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo "Connectivity has improved significantly under Modi's govt, with over 1,000km of national highways developed, including 620km completed by the National Highway Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (NHIDCL). In the last four years, NHIDCL has executed works worth over Rs 13,000 crore across these 620km and Rs 6,400 crore has been sanctioned for future NHIDCL projects, which are scheduled to commence soon," Vanlalruati said. In housing, over 48,000 homes have been built under PM Awas Yojana with Aibawk town becoming India's first completed urban cluster, and Aizawl is seeing Rs 513 crore worth of development under the Smart Cities Mission, she said, adding that over 1.24 lakh households have received tap water connections under Jal Jeevan Mission in Mizoram.

Kerala Maritime Board requests govt to hold stakeholder meet on Valiyathura redevelopment
Thiruvananthapuram: As part of expediting the redevelopment of Valiyathura region in the state capital, Kerala Maritime Board (KMB) requested govt to convene a stakeholders' meeting. The meeting, likely to be held under the chairmanship of ports minister V N Vasavan, aims to secure the trust of fishermen, ensuring the project proceeds without affecting their livelihoods. It would address a spectrum of concerns, ranging from fish landing infrastructure and market access to preserving the iconic Valiyathura pier and sustaining community fishing access. The proposed redevelopment spans nearly 4.5 acre of underutilised, KMB-owned land adjacent to the deteriorating pier. Once govt approves the project, KMB will call for expressions of interest (EOI) from qualified consultants and investors for a detailed proposal of the redevelopment project. Based on the proposal, KMB will prepare a report and submit it to the govt for final approval. KMB has prepared detailed preparatory work and land surveys were carried out in anticipation of the redevelopment. However, officials emphasise the importance of winning support from the fishing community before tender invitations and EOI calls can be issued. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pinga-Pinga e HBP? Tome isso 1x ao dia se tem mais de 40 anos Portal Saúde do Homem Clique aqui Undo A senior board official highlighted that fisherfolk has a strong presence in the area and clear strategies, including alternate pathways, must be planned to avoid future conflict. According to KMB chairman N S Pillai, the preparatory work has been done. "It is not just for tourists; we need their (fisherfolk) confidence. The minister is positive about this and will hold a meeting involving fishermen, the church and local representatives. Only then will we proceed with the tender for the maritime hub," Pillai said. Meanwhile, KMB is set to invite EOIs to attract private consultants and investors who would co-develop the site under a public-private partnership (PPP). As per the announcements in Jan this year, the revised proposal includes a maritime hub concept, encompassing a fish landing centre, convention facilities, hospitality zones and museums or maritime-themed attractions. "Following EOI selection, KMB will compile a detailed report, which will then be submitted to the govt for final sanction. Subsequently, a long-term management agreement, likely up to 30 years, will be made with a private partner and a project monitoring committee will oversee coastal regulation zone compliance," Pillai added. Rehabilitation of the historic pier, estimated at Rs 20 crore, is central to the redevelopment. However, earlier such efforts under the Sagarmala scheme were shelved over a lack of funding from Centre. Nevertheless, under the PPP model, restoration of the sea bridge is expected to be bundled with other site upgrades, financed and executed by the private developer. Once slated as a busy cargo port with a 214-m-long pier built in 1956, Valiyathura lost relevance when Kochi port rose to prominence. The pier, described as a heritage structure and a landmark in the area, partly collapsed due to coastal erosion and has been closed for the past four years.

Over a dozen companies line up IPOs in 3-6 months
NEW DELHI: After a sluggish start to 2025, the primary market is showing signs of revival with over a dozen companies having lined up their IPOs in the next three to six months buoyed by a stabilising secondary market and easing geopolitical tensions, merchant bankers said. Among the companies preparing to tap the capital markets are HDB Financial Services, a subsidiary of HDFC Bank, National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL), Kalpataru, Rubicon Research, All Time Plastics, Regreen-Excel EPC India, and Paramesu Biotech, they added. Additionally, Credila, SK Finance, Veritas Finance, Paras Healthcare, CIEL HR Services, Avanse Financial Services, Drof-Ketal Chemicals India, Brigade Hotel Ventures and Shreeji Shipping are looking to launch their IPOs. All these companies have already received clearance from the markets regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi). These companies are mobilising funds to support capital expenditure requirements especially for expansion plans, repayment of borrowings, and for general corporate purposes. This renewed activity follows the launch of six IPOs last month, including Schloss Bangalore, the owner of luxury hotel chain The Leela. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Upto 15% Discount for Salaried Individuals ICICI Pru Life Insurance Plan Get Quote Undo However, the overall IPO activity in 2025 has slowed, with only 16 firms coming out with public issues so far, compared to 29 IPOs in the same period last year. The slowdown is attributed to ongoing volatility in the equity market due to a mix of global and domestic factors. This shift followed a remarkable 2024, in which 91 maiden public issues collectively raised Rs 1.6 lakh crore, driven by robust retail participation, a resilient economy, and booming private capital expenditure. Despite the cautious start to 2025, there are promising signs. A growing number of companies are filing documents, and the second half of the year is expected to witness robust IPO activity. "We will see robust activity in the IPO markets in the second half of 2025 as a good set of companies are looking to launch their public issues. There is a good appetite among investors for attractively priced IPOs," said Saahil Kinkhabwala, director, investment banking, Monarch Networth Capital. Pranjal Srivastava, partner, investment banking, Centrum Capital, noted that the Indian IPO market's sluggish beginning in 2025 reflects cautious investor sentiment amid global economic uncertainties and domestic market volatility. "While the pipeline remains strong with several companies awaiting regulatory approvals and DRHP filing momentum continuing as last year, both issuers and investors are taking a wait-and-watch approach. We expect activity to pick up gradually during the rest of the year as market conditions stabilise and confidence returns," he added. So far, 65 companies have received final observations from Sebi, and another 65 are awaiting final clearance, a necessary step before launching public issues.
