One Side Of Mankapur RoB Closed For Repair, Traffic Cops Don't Know
1 2 Nagpur: A contractor appointed by the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI), responsible for the maintenance of Mankapur flyover, has closed one side of the flyover to repair cracks that surfaced more than a month ago. The contractor has not taken permission from the traffic department to close one side (Katol to Nagpur) of the flyover, said sources. The repairs will take 100 days. The contractor's move to stop traffic movement by closing one side of the flyover without the nod of traffic department has irked cops as well as citizens, who fear that taking such steps without proper permission can lead to accidents. The closure led to a massive traffic jam on the flyover as one side is accommodating two-way traffic, and the road below the flyover is already narrow. The Mankapur flyover, built on National Highway 69 as part of the Nagpur-Betul road widening project, has developed cracks for the second time. TOI had reported that cracks have appeared on the flyover and that the contractor has closed a part of the flyover for repair work, but traffic movement was continuing. At that time, the contractor had not taken permission to carry out the work. ACP (traffic) Madhuri Bawiskar said that the contractor has not taken permission from the traffic department to close one side of the flyover. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Conheça o óculos militar que os homens 40+ querem Óculos Max Saiba Mais Undo "We will now call NHAI officials and the contractor, and ask how can they close one side of the flyover for traffic movement without taking permission from traffic police," said the official. A senior NHAI official confirmed that the contractor is yet to receive permission from the traffic department. "The contractor has applied for the permission and is likely to get it soon. The repair work will take around 100 days, during which one side of the flyover will remain closed," said the official. Sources in the NHAI said that after the cracks were spotted, an inspection was carried out. "The contractor initially wanted to repair the cracks but will now completely replace the 25 to 30-metre span. The repairs would have decreased the strength of the flyover, which is why the span is being replaced," said NHAI sources. The flyover, built as part of the Rs1,800 crore Nagpur-Betul Project, was opened in 2014. The flyover is supposed to be maintained until 2032 by the contractor who built it.

Jenu Kuruba leaders refuse to call Nagarahole a tiger reserve
Mysuru: Jenu Kuruba tribal leaders from Karadikallu Atturu Kolli Haadi inside the Nagarahole Tiger Reserve in Ponnampet taluk of Kodagu district said on Monday that they will never call Nagarahole a tiger reserve. This is not a tiger reserve. It is just Nagarahole. We were forcibly moved out of our soil in the name of forest-tiger protection, Shivu JA, JK Timma, and Shivamma said. Speaking at a press meet organised by the Nagarahole Indigenous Land Assertion Committee, People's Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL), and Communities Network Against Protected Areas (CNAPA), they alleged that those who don't know anything about the forest are encroaching on the forests in the name of conservation. Shivu stated that all the 52 Jenu Kuruba families now staying in their ancestral land are happy with what is available inside the forest now. "For decades, we were made to struggle in the lane houses," he said. He alleged that forest department officials misused the provisions of the law to displace them. Timma recollected his experience with a tiger conservation project where he demonstrated his understanding of the forest.

He alleged that the tiger conservation projects resulted in the death of tigers. Shivamma urged govt agencies not to displace them as they are leading a real life in their own hamlets. Nitin Rai, an independent scholar who has looked at the socio-ecological impacts of wildlife conservation, and Pranab Doley, a community leader from the Mising community, Kaziranga, Assam, and convener of the Greater Kaziranga Land and Human Rights Committee, who is also the founding member of CNAPA, spoke during the press meet. Rai alleged that govt agencies are misusing the increase in the number of tigers to dilute the forest laws for the benefit of mining and other activities.

Shreyas Iyer's Captain's Knock Seals the Deal PBKS skipper Shreyas Iyer led the chase with an unbeaten 87 runs off 41 balls, including five fours and eight sixes. His aggressive yet composed innings was crucial, especially his dominant hitting against England pacer Reece Topley, where he struck three consecutive sixes in the 13th and 14th overs. Iyer praised the pressure of big games, stating, 'I love such big occasions. I always remind myself and my teammates that the bigger the occasion, the calmer you should be to achieve great results.' His partnership with Nehal Wadhera, who scored 48, helped shift momentum decisively in PBKS's favour. Mumbai Indians batted first and posted 203 runs for six wickets despite losing key players early, including veteran opener Rohit Sharma. Notable performances came from Jonny Bairstow (38) and Tilak Varma (44), who built vital partnerships to set a challenging target. Mumbai skipper Hardik Pandya acknowledged Iyer's excellent batting, saying, 'The way Shreyas batted, took his chances, and played some outstanding shots. They were really calm, put us under pressure, and we couldn't execute our plans as intended.'

Many viewed it as a good luck charm for PBKS, sharing memes and urging the superstar to attend the final.

Did the New York Jets sabotage Aaron Rodgers' career to make room for Justin Fields?
The New York Jets are moving on from Aaron Rodgers, pinning their hopes on Justin Fields (Getty Images) The New York Jets appear to be closing the chapter on their troubled relationship with Aaron Rodgers, and in doing so, are placing their hopes on a younger, more determined quarterback—Justin Fields. While Rodgers remains unsigned and reportedly undecided about a potential offer from the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Jets are pressing forward with their newest starter, signaling a fresh start in a city desperate for quarterback stability. Justin Fields takes over as Jets quarterback as Aaron Rodgers remains sidelined and unwanted The saga of Aaron Rodgers in New York was as chaotic as it was underwhelming. After a devastating Achilles injury in Week 1 of the 2023 season, he missed the entire year. In 2024, he returned to start, but the Jets sputtered to a disappointing 5-12 finish—far from playoff contention. — NYJ_Matt (@NYJ_Matt) And despite decent stats (28 touchdowns to just 11 interceptions), his leadership and locker room influence came under increasing scrutiny. Now, the franchise appears to be done waiting on Rodgers. Enter Justin Fields. Once hailed as the future of the Chicago Bears, and then a short-term solution for the Steelers, Fields now gets the chance to rewrite the Jets' quarterback narrative—a tale plagued by inconsistency since the days of Mark Sanchez. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Homens acima dos 40 anos estão comprando esse óculos militar Óculos Max Saiba Mais Undo "I think I can be great," Fields told ESPN. "That's been the goal for me my whole life, my whole career. I think the sky's the limit for this team, for this offense, but we still have a long way to go." Fields is arriving with a chip on his shoulder and a budget-friendly $20 million salary—making him one of the league's lowest-paid starters. But if he succeeds in New York, that could change quickly. Last season in Pittsburgh, Fields posted a solid 4-2 record as a starter, with five touchdowns and just one interception in a conservative offense. Aaron Rodgers fades into the background while Justin Fields rallies the locker room As Rodgers keeps the NFL waiting with vague hints and no commitments, Fields is already taking control of his new huddle. "Our offense and defense are new, so the guys are really focused and committed to learning everything," Fields added. "But I think once we get it down, the sky's the limit. We have all the guys we need… it's really going to come down to discipline and execution." Also Read: Joe Burrow blasts NFL for unfair Ravens rematch in Baltimore on Thanksgiving With Fields' mindset and skillset aligning with the Jets' vision for a disciplined and explosive offense, the real question becomes: has New York finally found the quarterback they've been searching for? Or is this just another chapter in the team's long-running carousel under center?
