T & T Group Eyes Raj Nagar Extension with Residential Project Worth Rs. 700 Crore
BusinessWire India Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh) [India], August 7: Raj Nagar Extension, long known for its affordability, may soon see a shift in its residential landscape. T & T Group is preparing to launch a premium housing project in the area, with an estimated worth of Rs. 700 crore, which is expected to significantly expand its market share in the luxury housing market. Spread across 3.25 acres, the upcoming project will feature over one million square feet of built-up area and offer 3 and 4 BHK apartments across Ground + 16-storey towers. The design reportedly draws from Victorian and Tudor architecture, aiming to blend aesthetic detail with contemporary comfort. While most housing in Raj Nagar Extension has leaned towards functionality, this development signals a shift--geared toward residents who want elevated living without moving to Noida or Gurgaon. At its center will be a landscaped green promenade designed for community use. In a quieter corner, the project will feature a mini forest with a small lake, offering a rare nature-filled retreat within the city. "There's always been demand here for better-designed homes. People just didn't have the option," said Shivam Tyagi, Director - Operations, T & T Group. "We're trying to raise the bar for what's possible in places like Raj Nagar Extension." The homes are expected to be digitally equipped, aligning with T & T's tech-first approach. But observers note that the project's real impact may lie in how it repositions Raj Nagar Extension--challenging the idea that premium homes must come with a longer commute or a big-name pin code. With strong connectivity to Delhi, Noida, and central Ghaziabad via the Delhi-Meerut Expressway, the area offers logistical appeal. If executed as planned, the project could influence future development trends in the region--and offer a more aspirational option to homebuyers seeking quality living closer to home.

Employees transferred from T&T to PTC, and subsequently to PTCL: SC judgement
ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court by majority of 2 to 1 held that the employees transferred from T&T to PTC, and subsequently to PTCL, retained not only their right to pensionary benefits but also the character of those benefits as dynamic and evolving rights. A three-judge, headed by Chief Justice Yahya Afridi and comprising Justice Aminuddin Khan and Justice Ayesha A Malik, on Thursday, announced the judgment regarding of pension of PTCL ex-employees. Multiple judgments of various High Courts were impugned before the Court, essentially on the same subject matter being the entitlement of the employees of the erstwhile Telegraph and Telephone (T&T) Department to receive the same pension and pensionary benefits accorded to civil servants, as notified by the federal government from time to time. Justice Yahya and Justice Amin disagreed with the judgment of Justice Ayesha. Justice Yahya judgment said while employees transferred from T&T to Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation (PTC), and subsequently to Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) ceased to be civil servants, the statutory framework governing their transfer safeguarded their pensionary entitlements in full: not just as frozen benefits fixed at the time of transfer, but as living rights that were to progress in accordance with prevailing standards applicable to similarly situated public servants. The scheme under Section 9 of the Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Act, 1991, and Section 36 of the Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorga-nization) Act, 1996 guarantees the continuation of these entitlements, and the administrative mechanism created under the PTCL Act, including the establishment of Pakistan Telecommunication Employees Trust (PTET) was intended to facilitate, not frustrate, this guarantee. PTCL and PTET are duty-bound to ensure that the full measure of these entitlements is met, and any interpretation that reduces these rights to static or discretionary payments is contrary to the legislative mandate. The majority judgment clarified that this conclusion and these dispositions, have not been reached in ignorance of the financial concerns raised by PTCL and PTET. The submissions regarding the financial burden and claims of fiscal unsustainability have been duly considered. However, financial difficulty does not absolve a statutory entity of its legal obligations. If the existing pension model is incapable of sustaining the financial burden, it is the model that must be recalibrated, not the statutory entitlements curtailed. That said, the practical challenges identified by PTCL and PTET are real, and it is recognised a rigid timeline for disbursement may not be financially viable. Accordingly, PTCL must acknowledge its continuing financial liability towards former civil servants and reflect this as a declared liability on its financial records in accordance with applicable accounting and corporate law principles. Thereafter, PTCL, through PTET, may determine a feasible disbursement schedule for revised pensionary payments, the needful be done within 90 days, and that the payment process remains transparent and equitable in addressing the rightful claims of the affected pensioners. The chief justice held; CPLA Nos. 412, 420–424, 461–463, and 506 of 2019; CPLA Nos. 424-K, 357-K, and 365-K of 2019; CPLA Nos. 6005, 6006, 6023–6030, 6087–6096, 6101–6106, 6268–6273, and 6364 of 2021, 6453-6456 of 2021; and CPLA Nos. 134–135 of 2022 are dismissed. The impugned judgments of the High Courts are upheld to the extent that they grant pensionary revisions to those transferred employees who were civil servants at the time of their transfer. Such employees are entitled to the continuation of pensionary benefits, including revisions notified by the federal government. The CPLA Nos 2107, 2140, 2141, 2143, 2144, 2145, 2146, and 2147 of 2022 are allowed. The impugned judgments are set aside. The petitioners, being civil servants at the time of transfer, are entitled to continued pensionary revisions as per federal government notifications. The CPLA Nos 2138, 2139, and 2142 of 2022 are allowed, subject to classification confirmation. The matters are remanded to the relevant High Court for factual determination of the service status of the petitioners at the time of transfer. If the petitioners are found to have been civil servants, they shall be entitled to the continuation of pensionary benefits, including revisions notified by the federal government. The CPLA Nos 6205, 6222-6225, 6332, 6333, 6358-6363, 6379, 6437, 6485, 6545-6550, 6553-6556 of 2021, and CPLA Nos 30, 112-114, 118, 139-145, 329, 330, 368-371, 465-471, 645 of 2022 are remanded for determination whether each petitioner held civil-servant status at transfer end, and if so, for corresponding pension revisions.

The United States men's soccer team faces Mexico in the Gold Cup final Sunday. Here's a preview.
Richards said the Americans have bonded during their month together, causing players to defend each other when opponents challenge them. Advertisement 'We love each other as if we're a big family, and if you have siblings you know that if anybody messes with your sibling, well, I guess for lack of a better word, you kind of have to kill them,' he said Saturday. 'You're allowed to do whatever to your siblings, but nobody from the outside can.' Missing many of its regular starters because of injuries, vacation and the Club World Cup, the No. 16 US managed five wins over relatively weak opponents and reached its first Gold Cup final since 2021. The meeting with 17th-ranked Mexico will be the last competitive match for both nations before they co-host next year's World Cup along with Canada. Advertisement 'I think the team is going to be ready not only to fight on the pitch against players from Mexico with the difficult atmosphere on the stadium, on the crowd, but I think it's good for us,' said Pochettino, who admired the energy-filled semifinal crowd in St. Louis that was 90 percent pro-Guatemala. 'It's good because I think it's going to be maybe the last game that we are going to play under pressure, and to play under pressure is what we need.' The US advanced with victories over teams ranked No. 100 (Trinidad and Tobago), 58 (Saudi Arabia), 83, (Haiti), 54, (Costa Rica) and 106 (Guatemala), winning three times by one goal and once on penalty kicks. The only dominant performance was an opening 5-0 rout of T&T. Related : The Americans entered the Gold Cup with a four-game losing streak, their longest since 2007. Defender Tim Ream, at 37 the oldest player on the roster, said it took time for them to adjust to Pochettino and his assistants. 'This is a different atmosphere now,' he said. 'This is different set of coaches, different ideas, different standards, different values, different everything. And it was a learning process, for sure.' Pochettino is a former coach of Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain, where he guided Lionel Messi. 'From the outside looking in, they can be a little bit intimidating,' Richards said. 'But then once you finally get to meet them, you understand that they're all just big teddy bears and they all really care about family.' Advertisement Matt Freese has emerged during the Gold Cup to supplant Matt Turner for now as the starting goalkeeper. 'I think we've proved that we can play against some bigger opponents. I think we've proved that we surprise people,' he said. 'We haven't proved what we want to prove yet, and so the job is not finished.' Ahead of the final, Pochettino gathered the players and staff for a motivational message, 'He said something about his dreams last night,' midfielder Malik Tillman said, 'and about his dream for tomorrow.'

Chris Richards says US team ready to fight in Gold Cup final against Mexico
HOUSTON — Chris Richards has noticed a turnaround in the U.S. team during the CONCACAF Gold Cup, a change from both the end of coach Gregg Berhalter's tenure and the start of Mauricio Pochettino's. Chris Richards says US team ready to fight in Gold Cup final against Mexico 'We kind of like to fight, so I think that's something that maybe has been missing from the national team over the last few camps, few months, few years,' the defender said ahead of Sunday's final against Mexico. 'We didn't come into camp saying that we want to fight, but I think if teams want to bring it to us, then they have something else coming for them. Of course, we want to win games, but sometimes in CONCACAF it's not pretty, so you have to do the dirty things.' Mexico is the defending champion and has nine titles to seven for the U.S. and one for Canada. A pro-Mexico crowd is expected at NRG Stadium. Richards said the Americans have bonded during their month together, causing players to defend each other when opponents challenge them. 'We love each other as if we're a big family, and if you have siblings you know that if anybody messes with your sibling, well, I guess for lack of a better word, you kind of have to kill them," he said Saturday.
