In poll-bound Bihar, PM to flag off export of locomotives to Guinea
PM Narendra Modi (File photo) NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to flag off export of the first locomotive from Marhowrah factory in Saran for Guinea in West Africa on Friday, signalling the NDA govts' — both at Centre and state — thrust on accelerating economic activities in poll-bound Bihar. Railway ministry officials said that 150 Make in India Evolution Series (ES43ACmi) locomotives for SimFer's Simandou iron ore project in Guinea worth more than Rs 3,000 crore are being manufactured. Simandou will be Africa's largest mining project. 'In the current financial year, 37 locomotives will be exported, another 82 locomotives will be shipped out in 2026-27 and the remaining 31 locomotives in the third year,' said an official. Though the Marhowrah diesel locomotive factory (DLF) was announced by then railway minister Lalu Prasad, it remained inactive. Spread over 70 acres, the factory was established in 2018 to indigenously manufacture 1,000 state-of-the-art locomotives. The annual production capacity of the factory is over 100 locomotives. The contract to export the locomotives was awarded to Wabtec Locomotive Private Ltd, a joint venture between Indian Railways and US-based Wabtec Corporation. 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 All these locomotives will have AC cabs. Each locomotive will have a single cab. Two locomotives together can carry the load of 100 wagons with maximum permissible speed. 'For manufacturing of these locomotives, three types of tracks — broad gauge, standard gauge and Cape guage have been laid in Marhowrah premises,' said another railway official. Officials said with the Indian Railway network achieving full electrification, there is a huge scope for exporting diesel locos to countries where there is demand. 'It's an opportunity to increase our export of locos that match the best standard across the globe. For Bihar, it will be a big milestone,' said an official.

Air India cancels Mumbai to Ahmedabad flight operated by Airbus
Air India flight AI2493 from Mumbai (BOM) to Ahmedabad (AMD), operated by an Airbus A321-211 (VT-PPL), was cancelled on Monday. According to ANI sources, the flight was initially delayed due to an operational issue. However, during the delay window, the crew's Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL) came into effect, resulting in the cancellation. The flight was scheduled to depart at 6.35 pm and arrive at 7.55 pm, but did not depart. In another incident, a Ranchi-bound Air India Express flight was forced to return to Delhi on Monday after a suspected technical issue.

World Bank lifts ban on nuclear energy financing
World Bank President Ajay Banga announced that the organisation will return to supporting nuclear energy after staying out of the sector for many years (Image credit: AFP) The World Bank is re-entering the nuclear energy space "for the first time in decades," its President Ajay Banga said Wednesday, as it works towards meeting growing electricity demand in developing countries. Banga said in an email to staff that the bank will work closely with United Nations nuclear watchdog the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), "strengthening our ability to advise on non-proliferation safeguards" and regulatory frameworks. The decision comes as electricity demand in developing countries is set to more than double by 2035, Banga noted in the memo seen by AFP. To meet this need, annual investment in energy generation, grids and storage will have to increase from $280 billion today to about $630 billion. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like One of the Most Successful Investors of All Time, Warren Buffett, Recommends: 5 Books for Turning... Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Click Here Undo "We will support efforts to extend the life of existing reactors in countries that already have them, and help support grid upgrades and related infrastructure," Banga said. The Washington-based lender will also work to speed up the "potential of Small Modular Reactors" so these can become a viable choice for more countries eventually. Banga, who took the helm of the development lender in 2023, has pushed for a change in the bank's energy policy -- and his letter comes a day after a board meeting. "The goal is to help countries deliver the energy their people need, while giving them the flexibility to choose the path that best fits their development ambitions," Banga said. Besides focusing on improving grid performance, he added that the institution will continue financing the retirement or repurposing of coal plants, supporting carbon capture for industry and power generation. In April, on the sidelines of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank's spring meetings, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the bank could use resources more efficiently by helping emerging countries boost energy access. He said that it should focus on "dependable technologies" rather than seek out "distortionary climate finance targets." This could mean investing in gas and other fossil fuel-based energy production. Bessent at the time also lauded the bank's efforts toward removing restrictions on support for nuclear energy. Beyond the shift in nuclear energy financing, Banga said Wednesday that the bank has yet to reach agreement within its board on whether it should "engage in upstream gas," and under what circumstances it should do so. The United States, which is the World Bank's biggest shareholder, is among countries to have campaigned for the group to rethink its ban on supporting nuclear projects.
