Elaborate plans to put Vizag on world map
Visakhapatnam: As part of multi-faceted expansion plans to develop the Visakhapatnam Economic Region (VER), under NITI Aayog's Growth Hub initiative that aims at an initial $54 billion economy, the port city is all set to be developed into two broad brownfield cities: Vizag 2.0 and Vizag Bay City, the latter being envisaged as 'Miami of the East'. Towards this end, the Andhra Pradesh government has entrusted the land pooling responsibility to the Visakhapatnam Metropolitan Region Development Authority (VMRDA). VMRDA chairperson MV Pranav Gopal told The Hans India: 'The state government is keen on developing Visakhapatnam in a sustained way. The endeavour aims at planned urban expansion, sustainable revenue generation, and creating a world-class urban identity for Visakhapatnam'. The NITI Aayog, through its Growth Hub endeavour, has been promoting integrated urban development and thematic growth nodes. Under this, it has envisioned Visakhapatnam as a 'Bay City' with potential for eventual growth as 'Miami of the East'. To facilitate these long-term developmental plans, the Government of Andhra Pradesh has issued permission for a land pooling scheme under the VMRDA across Visakhapatnam, Vizianagaram and Anakapalli districts, covering an extent of 1,941.19 acres. The Visakhapatnam Economic Region (VER), will be spread over nine districts - Visakhapatnam, Vizianagaram, Srikakulam, Anakapalli, Kakinada, East Godavari, Konaseema, Alluri Sitarama Raju, and Parvathipuram Manyam, with an estimated 16.5 million population. The target is to employ seven million people. In alignment with the broader Swarna Andhra vision, the VER aspires to grow into a $135 billion economy, while delivering inclusive, sustainable, and high-quality growth over the next seven years. The VMRDA intends to develop Vizag 2.0 over 210 square kilometre and Vizag Bay City over 40 square kilometre. Vizag Metro to provide seamless connectivity Upon completion of phase 1 and 2 of the planned 77- km Metro by 2028-30, there will be seamless connectivity among all parts of the expanded port city, including the proposed IT hubs and the Bhogapuram Airport. For realising the Metro Rail project, developing master plan, building roads, and taking up incidental developmental activities, the authority would be incurring an expenditure of about Rs.4,000 crore to Rs.5,000 crore. Land Pooling is to be undertaken as per the VMRDA Land Pooling Scheme Rules, 2016. The proposal involves identification of prime government and private lands near the national highways from Anakapalli to Bhogapuram. Land pooling under the said rules will enable VMRDA to create a land bank of developed plots. Apart from monetising developed plots to fund major infrastructure projects (e.g., Metro Rail, roads, utilities), the focus is on ensuring cost-effective urban development by avoiding large-scale upfront land acquisition costs. In order to translate Vizag 2.0 and Vizag Bay City plans into reality, the administration will also identify and develop under-utilised government/private lands as well as mobilise resources for urban development and infrastructure.

Parliament must condemn Trump blabber
US President Donald Trump has launched a scathing attack on India, calling its economy "dead" and imposing a 25 pr cent tariff on its imports, effective from August 1. Trump expressed displeasure with India's purchase of oil and defence equipment from Russia, stating that India has "always bought a vast majority of their military equipment from Russia" and is Russia's largest buyer of energy, along with China. He said that maybe India will buy oil from Pakistan someday, which further strained the already tense relationship between the two neighbours. The Indian Parliament should condemn Trump's statement in one voice, as his remarks have sparked concern and added fuel to the escalating tensions between the US and India. Ganti Venkata Sudhir, Secunderabad Modi's foreign policy dealt Trump blow US President Donald Trump's announcement to impose a 25 per cent tariff on Indian goods has dealt a severe blow to the Indian economy. Citing India's trade ties with Russia and high tariffs as reasons, this decision is set to disrupt Indian exports, particularly in critical sectors like pharmaceuticals and textiles. The move has sparked widespread criticism of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's foreign policy, which has failed to avert the crisis. Despite Modi's much-touted close relationship with Trump, the lack of progress in securing a favourable trade agreement highlights a perceived leadership shortfall. Urgent measures are needed to safeguard India's economic interests. Srinivaas Goud Muddam, Hyderabad

The end of registered post: The seal of trust now lives in memories
The chime of the postman's bicycle bell, the anticipation of letters peeking from his bag, and the thrill of signing for a registered post—those moments are etched in the hearts of Indians like an era, which sadly is coming to an end. The Indian Postal Department has decided to discontinue its 50-year-old registered post service from September 1, merging it into Speed Post. This is not merely the end of a service, but the closure of a history tied to the emotions, memories, and the trust of millions. Registered post, once the carrier of appointment letters, legal notices, or loved ones' messages, will now fade into memories. The history of registered post dates to the British era, introduced for the secure delivery of important documents. Known for its reliability and legal validity, documents sent through it were accepted as evidence in courts. According to the Indian Postal Department's 2024-25 report, nearly 98 million registered post items were sent nationwide, reflecting its widespread popularity. The acknowledgment of delivery feature, with the recipient's signature confirming receipt, made it even more trustworthy. In that era, the postman was no less than a messenger, delivering letters of joy, hope, or sorrow to every doorstep. The digital age and the growing influence of private courier services have compelled the postal department to reorganize its operations. The government argues that merging registered post with Speed Post (launched in 1986) will enhance efficiency, improve tracking, and provide faster service. It offers international delivery to over 230 countries, whereas registered post's tracking was limited and primarily effective for domestic deliveries. However, this change will inevitably impact the common person economically. The starting fee for registered post was ₹25.96, with an additional ₹5 per 20 grams. In contrast, Speed Post begins at ₹41 for up to 50 grams, 20-25% more expensive. In rural India, where 89 per cent of the 1.56 lakh post offices (2025, Indian Postal Department) are the primary means of communication, this change could burden small traders, farmers, and ordinary citizens. The emotional impact of this decision is profound. The younger generation, accustomed to digital communication, may see this as routine, but for the older generation, registered post was part of their life's stories; it was a bridge of emotions. This change is a step toward modernising the postal department. Can Speed Post fully replace the trust and affordability of registered post? Will rural India embrace this change seamlessly? Well, only time will tell. The end of registered post is not just the closure of a service; it is the end of an era that was woven into the soul of Indian postal history. Prof R K Jain,Barwani (MP)
