Andhra Pradesh Minister for Education, IT, and Electronics Nara Lokesh has invited Carrier to work with the Andhra Pradesh government in implementing advanced heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in smart city projects like Amaravati and Visakhapatnam. He emphasised that integrating Carrier's energy-efficient systems would reduce power consumption by up to 25%, aligning with the State's efforts to meet its 2050 Net Zero Emissions target. He met executive drector of Carrier Corporation Arun Bhatia, in Singapore on Tuesday (July 29), to explore collaboration in sustainable infrastructure and cold chain logistics across the State. The Minister further urged Carrier to contribute to upcoming commercial and residential developments in the State by providing low-Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerants and environmentally responsible technologies that support green building certifications. Highlighting the need for resilient supply chain infrastructure, Lokesh proposed that Carrier collaborate with the Andhra Pradesh government to establish Cold Chain Logistics Hubs in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities for agricultural produce, pharmaceuticals, and food preservation. The Minister also briefed Mr. Bhatia on the policies, incentives, and infrastructure available for hyperscale data centre development in fast-growing tech hubs like Visakhapatnam, encouraging Carrier to explore opportunities in this domain. In response, Mr. Bhatia noted that Carrier is among the top three HVAC players in India and expressed interest in Andhra Pradesh's proposals. He assured that the company would discuss the initiatives with its senior team and respond positively. This meeting forms part of the broader vision of the Andhra Pradesh government to promote sustainable development, clean technology, and resilient infrastructure through global partnerships.

Indian-American Akshay Bhatia comes close to third PGA Tour win as he shares lead at 3M Open

Akshay Bhatia shot a career-equalling 8-under 63 on the moving day to move in a share for the lead at the 3M Open on the PGA Tour. He shared the lead with Denmark's Thorbjorn Olesen who aced the par-3 eighth and shot a 4-under 67 at the TPC Twin Cities. Bhatia, a 23-year-old Indian-American, whose parents came from India, chipped in twice on way to 63, as he seeks his third PGA TOUR victory in his 90th start with his previous wins being the 2023 Barracuda Championship and the 2024 Valero Texas Open. His third round 8-under 63 matched his career-low score which he has shot five times. The last time Bhatia played the 3M Open, he was T-64 in 2024. Bhatia, No. 46 in the FedExCup, is attempting to go right up to the Tour Championship as he did in 2024. Bhatia said, "I chipped in twice, made a lot of putts. A lot of putts lipped in, which was really nice to see. All in all, just a pretty solid round. Felt like I did a pretty good job of playing out of the rough today. I didn't hit it particularly great off the tee, but thankfully greens are soft enough to where you can kind of do that.' Bhatia, who closed 2024 with a fourth place in World Challenge at Tiger Woods' tournament has also got three Top-10s in 2025 including Tied-third at the Players. He chipped in from 42 feet for birdie on the fifth and from 55 feet for another birdie on 11. 'I'm just trying to play solid golf and hopefully the cards fall my way tomorrow," said Bhatia. Tied for first with Bhatia is Denmark's Thorbjorn Olesen seeking his first PGA Tour win, is making his 3M Open debut, holds 54-hole lead/co-lead for the first time on the PGA Tour. He entered the week No. 129 in the FedExCup and the eight-time DP World Tour winner earned PGA Tour membership for the 2025 season after finishing No. 7 in the 2024 DP World Tour Top 10, which awards Tour membership to the top 10 finishers in the final Race to Dubai Rankings, not otherwise exempt. The 2023 Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard winner, Kurt Kitayama recorded a career-low 11-under 60 and T-3 at 17-under. Kitayama also matched the tournament and course record with a 60. Also tied third is Takumi Kanaya (65) and seeks to become the sixth player from Japan to win on Tour and second this season after Hideki Matsuyama, who won The Sentry title. Also in a tie for third are Sam Stevens (66) and Jake Knapp (67). Lying in a three-way tie for seventh are Chris Gotterup (65), Pierceson Coody (67) and Jesper Svensson (63) at 16-under.

Akshay Bhatia Keeps It Real About Ryder Cup Hopes While Co-Leading 3M Open

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Ryder Cup is on everyone's mind in the golf world, including the players. That includes Akshay Bhatia, who recently revealed that he had been putting pressure on himself to make the team all season and it has affected his results. Bhatia is co-leading the 3M Open after 54 holes. However, he remains grounded about his slim chances of making the 12 at Bethpage Black under Keegan Bradley. "I think I'm on the far outside looking in at this point," Bathia told reporters, according to the transcripts of his post-third round interview. "Look, if I play great these next couple weeks, then maybe I'll have an outside chance." Bhatia currently ranks 24th in the American Ryder Cup team standings. A victory at the 3M Open would move him into the top 20 and even closer to the top 15. Akshay Bhatia of the United States reacts to his putt on the 16th green during the third round of the 3M Open 2025 at TPC Twin Cities on July 26, 2025 in Blaine, Minnesota. Akshay Bhatia of the United States reacts to his putt on the 16th green during the third round of the 3M Open 2025 at TPC Twin Cities on July 26, 2025 in Blaine, the two-time PGA Tour winner has had a rather erratic performance throughout the season. This, he said, has been influenced by the pressure he put on himself to play in the biannual event for the first time. "I definitely feel like it's been a demoralizing season for most of the year," he said, according to the transcripts. "Obviously (the) Players was my best finish and felt like I had a lot -- you know, I had a really good chance to win there." "And then after that it's just been a decline. Struggled with my driver for a little bit, didn't play great in the majors, just too much pressure on myself trying to make Ryder Cup, trying to win, trying to contend in majors." Akshay Bhatia is currently the co-leader at the @3MOpen. He caught up with @Amanda_Balionis following his third round. — Golf on CBS ⛳ (@GolfonCBS) July 26, 2025 Bhatia finished third at The Players Championship in March. However, he hasn't achieved another top-10 finish since then and missed the cut at two of the season's four majors. The 23-year-old still has a chance to make up ground, as he'll be playing in the Wyndham Championship and likely two of the three FedEx Cup playoff tournaments. However, he preferred to be cautious about the matter and simply send his best wishes to the team. "All in all, you know, regardless if I make the team or not, I just really want us to succeed this year. I think it's a big Ryder Cup and I know Keegan's got a lot on his plate, obviously a potential player, so I just hope the best for them."
