INDORE : Indore Development Authority (IDA) is set to generate substantial revenue by selling its vacant plots, flats, and shops, with a target of Rs 261 crore in the coming days. A decision to sell 600 flats, 40 shops, and 24 plots was made during an IDA board meeting, chaired by the Divisional Commissioner Deepak Singh, Collector Asheesh Singh , IMC Commissioner Shivam Verma, and IDA CEO RP Ahirwar among other officials on Friday. The authority will soon issue tenders for these properties, aiming to meet the housing needs of the general public. The IDA has already prepared a comprehensive list of all properties. The board meeting also saw key approvals for infrastructure projects. An agency was finalised to conduct the feasibility survey and prepare tender documents for the 'elevated corridor' extending from Malwa Mill Square to Rasoma Square via Patnipura Square. Additionally, an agency was approved for the feasibility survey and tender proposals for flyovers at Rasoma Square and Ring Road's Robot Square. These approvals follow a previous board meeting where the decision to conduct feasibility studies at all three locations was made, and tenders were subsequently invited. The IDA board also decided to provide Rs 16.98 crore to the Indore Municipal Corporation (IMC). This amount will be used to treat sewage emanating from the sewerage treatment plant in Scheme No. 166. In another significant decision, an industrial plot in Scheme 78 Phase-2 was allotted to the Food Corporation of India (FCI). Furthermore, a plot on the Super Corridor was allocated to the Agricultural Produce Market Committee (Mandi). The board also sanctioned minimum tenders worth Rs 90 crore for various development works and essential facilities across different schemes. These include the construction of a bridge over the Kanh River on MR-12, the building of a 34 lakh-litre capacity water tank in Scheme 151 and 169B, and other approved works under various development plans.

Over 14k candidates appear for UPSC Prelims in Indore amid elaborate arrangements
Indore: The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) conducted Civil Services Preliminary Examination 2025 on Sunday across the country including 36 designated centres in Indore. Over 14,692 aspirants appeared for the exam in two sessions. Candidates began arriving at the centres one to two hours before the scheduled time. Due to strict verification procedures, many were seen waiting outside the examination gates for over an hour. Only after thorough document checks and security screening, the candidates were allowed to enter the examination halls. Despite the long wait, the pleasant weather in the city provided some relief to the candidates. The examination saw candidates from various cities arriving in Indore a day earlier. Many travelled from Khargone, Jhabua, and other nearby cities to participate. T he first session was held from 9:30am to 11:30am and the second from 2:30pm to 4:30pm. Taking lessons from the disruption during the NEET UG examination earlier this month — when power outages due to storms and rain affected 24 centres in Indore and Ujjain — the administration made elaborate preparations for Sunday's UPSC examination. Indore divisional commissioner, Deepak Singh, was appointed as the coordinating officer for the examination. All arrangements were in place for smooth conduct of the exam. Observers were deployed at each centre to oversee the proceedings. Singh had instructed electricity department officials to ensure an uninterrupted power supply at all centres from 7am to 7pm. Backup power arrangements were also made in case of any emergency. In addition, arrangements for drinking water, clean pathways, and well-maintained sanitation facilities were ensured at every centre. This year, more than 9.48 lakh candidates applied for the UPSC Civil Services Preliminary Examination being held at 2,368 centres across 80 cities in the country. As per official figures, 14,691 candidates had registered for the exam in Indore. In the first session, 9,761 candidates were present while 4,930 were absent, recording an attendance of 66%. In the second session, 9,571 candidates appeared, while 5,120 remained absent. The overall attendance across both sessions stood at approximately 65%.
