Jaipur: With civic polls in Rajasthan, including elections to the Jaipur Municipal Corporation, scheduled for Nov-Dec 2025, a flurry of foundation stone-laying ceremonies and project inaugurations is being lined up in the state capital over the next three to four months.
According to officials familiar with the developments, the government is planning a series of public programmes around these events, aiming to boost voter sentiment ahead of the elections. "There will be foundation stone-laying programmes for two to four elevated roads. Among these, the Sanganer Elevated Road and Goplapura Bypass Road Elevated Road may take place in Aug. In addition, the govt may lay foundation stones in Jhotwara and at the Apex Circle in Mansarovar, and for the flyover at the OTS Chouraha," said an official.
The Urban Development and Housing Department is also keen on laying the foundation stone for the Metro Line 2 by Diwali this year. The state govt already approved the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for Line 2 and forwarded the DPR for final approval. Meanwhile, chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma instructed the Jaipur Metro Railway Corporation (JMRC) to complete all formalities to float a tender for the work order by Aug 2025.

"The state govt sent requests to Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) to complete the Civil Line Railway Overbridge Project by Diwali this year. The govt wants to inaugurate this long-pending project before the civic polls, if possible," said a JDA official.
In addition, the focus is on wooing voters from the panchayat areas, which will come under the jurisdiction of JMC during this election.
Officials said JMC can't officially interfere in these areas as they will remain under panchayats' jurisdiction until the election. "Since these areas fall under the ambit of JDA, the govt asked JDA to carry out development works that fall under the scope of the civic body," another official added.

The need to keep doing or achieving may feel strong, but it is time to step back and ask—what truly matters? Simplicity is not weakness, it is wisdom.

Scorpio Love Horoscope Today In love, avoid trying to do too much to keep the relationship going. If you're in a relationship, be present rather than proving anything. Quality time, even short, is more meaningful than dramatic gestures. If you're single, resist the urge to force connection. One real conversation is better than ten short chats with no depth. Today's emotional tone asks for truth and intention. Let your love energy settle. What remains will be genuine, and worth growing. Scorpio Career Horoscope Today Career may feel heavy if you're chasing too many things at once. Let go of tasks that do not align with your core role. Focus on what gives results and peace.

Irate HC intimates contempt against 2 chief secys
Chennai: Expressing deep anguish and displeasure towards the attitude of Tamil Nadu chief secretary in disrespecting court orders, Madras high court initiated suo motu contempt of court proceedings against the officers who served as the chief secretary to the govt from Sep 19, 2023. "This court is expressing its deep anguish and displeasure towards the attitude of the chief secretary in disrespecting the court orders and executing them in true letter and spirit," Justice Battu Devanand said. "As the chief secretary, who is the head of the executive of the state, does not implement the court order and takes it lightly, this court cannot expect that his subordinate officers would implement the orders in true letter and spirit," the court added. The court passed the order on four petitions in which the court directed the govt to implement the scheme of compassionate appointment from 1972 to 2023. The high court passed the order while allowing the pleas moved by legal heirs of deceased govt employees against infirmities in implementing Tamil Nadu Civil Service (Appointment on Compassionate Grounds) Rules, 2023. The court directed the state to consider the suggestion for feasibility to maintain a state-wise list of the dependants for compassionate appointment and to take steps to obtain a report from the committee within two months. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Fastest Selling Plots of Mysore from 40L | 40+ Amenities PurpleBrick Learn More Undo The court also directed the chief secretary that the action taken report be placed before this court within three months . On June 6, the court was informed that no such report was filed within the time prescribed by the court. Recording the submission, the court said, "After considering all these facts, this court is of the prima facie opinion that the chief secretary failed to comply with the order of this court in true letter and spirit." On several occasions, this court noticed that only after the filing of contempt cases and after issuing statutory notice for the appearance of the officers, the authorities choose to file appeals with delay condonation petitions. No doubt, it is the right of the respondents to file appeals. But it has to be filed within the time stipulated for the limitation of filing of appeals, the court said. The court then adjourned the hearing to June 20.
