Rail link for Maruti factory: What this means for car transport logistics in India
Gurgaon: Inauguration of a multi-modal cargo terminal at Maruti Suzuki 's manufacturing plant in Manesar is being touted as a shift towards sustainable transportation that will help India's largest carmaker reduce its carbon footprint. What is a multi-modal cargo terminal? As the term suggests, a multi-modal terminal is a specially designed facility that helps transfer goods between different modes of transportation. The idea is to leverage the strength of different transportation modes – cost-efficacy and eco-friendliness of railways, flexibility and last-mile connectivity of road, and speed of air freight. According to govt officials, there are 108 such terminals in India. What about the Manesar terminal? The two-storey terminal, India's largest such facility, was built over 46 acres inside Maruti Suzuki India's manufacturing plant in Manesar. It will be used exclusively by the automaker. How will it operate and what are its benefits? Cars manufactured at Maruti's Gurgaon plant will be transported by truck to the Manesar plant, where they will be loaded into railway coaches for dispatch to various destinations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Vehicles manufactured at the Manesar plant will be directly loaded into railway coaches from the cargo terminal for transporting across India. This will reduce the carmaker's reliance on trailer trucks, eventually easing road and highway traffic, including in NCR. Officials told TOI the company engages 9,000 truck transporters for ferrying its vehicles across India. How is this different from 'truck on train' RoRo (roll on, roll off) service? The 'truck on train' service for auto parts, rolled out on the western freight corridor from Rewari last year, allowed companies to send trucks loaded with auto parts or vehicles to be loaded onto trains. Once the cargo rakes reach their destination, trucks roll down the train and deliver the goods. How will cars be transported across India from the terminal? According to officials, the terminal will facilitate transport to 380 Indian cities. From the Manesar plant, cargo trains will go up to Patli station, which is part of the 126km Haryana Railway Orbital Corridor (HORC) project. HORC, of which only the Manesar-Patli portion has been completed till now, will connect Palwal to Sonipat through a broad-gauge double railway line for both passenger and goods traffic. The corridor, meant to decongest train traffic in Delhi with a bypass, will enable faster and more-affordable long-distance travel from Gurgaon, Manesar and other industrial hubs of Haryana. Patli station also falls on the Northern Railway line, which goes to Rewari, where it can switch to the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC). This 1,500km freight corridor starts from Dadri in UP and transports goods up to Gujarat — where Mundra and Pipavav ports are located. The freight corridor, once completed, will eventually reach JNPT port in Mumbai. What is railways' share in transporting Maruti vehicles? The automaker started dispatching its vehicles through railways over a decade ago. About 5% of vehicles manufactured by Maruti were transported via rail in 2014-15. This share steadily went up over the year, reaching 24% last financial year. The company says it aims to transport 35% of its production through trains by 2030-31.

Alex Soros and Huma Abedin's net worth: Here is how much the 'liberal royalty' earns
Credit: Instagram/@alexsoros In what is being dubbed the 'wedding of the liberal royalty,' Alex Soros, son of billionaire philanthropist George Soros, married longtime Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin last weekend in the Hamptons, New York. The high-profile union brought together two influential figures deeply embedded in American political life—one by heritage and philanthropy, the other by decades of service at the heart of Democratic politics. Huma Abedin's multi-million dollar net worth Huma Abedin, 48, has long been a quiet yet powerful presence in American politics. Often described as Hillary Clinton's 'second daughter,' she has worked closely with the former First Lady, Senator, Secretary of State, and presidential candidate for over two decades. Credit: Instagram/@alexsoros From her start as a White House intern in 1996 to her role as vice chair of Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, Abedin's career in public service has been both high-profile and high-impact. Her net worth, estimated between $2 million and $4 million as of 2025, reflects a mix of public and private earnings. In addition to her government salary during her tenure as deputy chief of staff at the State Department (2009–2013), she has earned income from consulting, speaking engagements, and media work—including her role as a contributor for MSNBC. 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 Her 2021 memoir, Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds, added to her earnings and further cemented her reputation as a political insider with a compelling personal narrative. Born in Michigan and raised in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Abedin is of Indian and Pakistani descent. She returned to the U.S. for college, earning a degree in journalism from George Washington University. Though she once dreamed of being a foreign correspondent, her path led to the heart of American power corridors—culminating now in a marriage that links her to one of the wealthiest dynasties in progressive politics.

While his own personal net worth is not exactly known, Alex now controls vast resources as chairman of the Open Society Foundations (OSF), which funds liberal causes across the globe. George Soros, whose personal fortune is estimated at $6.7 billion to $7.2 billion, has entrusted Alex with both leadership and influence—positioning him as a central figure in the future of global progressive philanthropy. Born and raised in New York, Alex holds a PhD in modern European history from UC Berkeley and previously earned a bachelor's degree from NYU. He launched the Alexander Soros Foundation in 2011, focusing on civil rights and social justice. He has steadily grown in prominence within the Soros network. His scholarly background includes work on Jewish identity in Germany.

Norway launches flagship large-scale carbon capture and storage project
The liquefied CO2 (LCO2) carrier Northern Pioneer of Northern Lights (Image credit: AFP) Norway on Tuesday launched a flagship carbon capture and storage (CCS) project, a technology seen as crucial to curbing climate change but struggling to find a viable economic model. Bearing the English name for the Vikings' wooden ships, the Longship project involves capturing carbon dioxide emitted from a cement plant and later from an incineration plant, transporting it by ship to a terminal on Norway's west coast, and then injecting and storing it beneath the seabed. The project has received significant financial support from the Norwegian state, which will cover 22 billion kroner ($2.2 billion) of the total estimated cost of 34 billion kroner for the installation and operation over the first 10 years. Norway has presented Longship as the "world's first full-scale value chain" for capture and storage of carbon in the greenhouse gases that cause harmful climate change. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Doctors Beg: Take These 4 Ingredients Before Bed to Burn Fat Hollywood Today | Health Learn More Undo "This is not just an important moment for Norway, it is a breakthrough for carbon capture and storage in Europe," Norwegian Energy Minister Terje Aasland said. For the capture component, the facility will be officially inaugurated Wednesday at a cement plant operated by Germany's Heidelberg Materials in Brevik, southeastern Norway. It will prevent 400,000 tonnes of CO2 from escaping into the atmosphere each year. Another part of the project, the Hafslund Celsio waste incineration plant near Oslo, is also expected to capture 350,000 tonnes of CO2 starting in 2029. The liquefied carbon dioxide will be transported by ship to the Oygarden terminal near Bergen, where it will be injected into a pipeline to be stored 110 kilometres (68 miles) offshore in a saline aquifer 2.6 kilometres below the seabed. The terminal has been in place since last year as part of the Northern Lights project -- led by oil giants Equinor, Shell and TotalEnergies -- which claims to be "the world's first commercial CO2 transport and storage service". Backed by the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) as a way of reducing the carbon footprint of industries hard to decarbonise, such as cement and steel, CCS technology remains complex and expensive. Without financial assistance, it is currently more profitable for industries to purchase "pollution permits" on the European carbon market than to pay for capturing, transporting and storing their CO2. The total global carbon capture capacity currently amounts to only about 50 million tonnes, according to the International Energy Agency, equivalent to just 0.1 per cent of global annual emissions.
