NEW DELHI: Resuming the 'Red light on, Gaadi off' campaign, deploying anti-smog guns, and invoking stage III of the pollution management plan are among the actions taken by the Delhi government and other agencies after the city's air quality fell into the'severe' category, according to officials. A government official in Delhi claims that the national capital has adopted the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) stage 3, which completely prohibits any kind of building or demolition. On Thursday, the Centre's pollution control body called for the GRAP III to be implemented, stopping all non-essential building, mining, and stone crushing in Delhi-NCR. In Delhi, Gurugram, Faridabad, Ghaziabad, and Gautam Budh Nagar, there are further limitations on the operation of four-wheelers classified as BS III petrol and BS IV diesel during this phase.Anti-smog guns have been stationed at several locations, including Anand Vihar, Kashmiri Gate ISBT, ITO, Pusa Road, Jahangirpuri, Narela Industrial area, and Burari Crossing, by the Delhi administration, which has intensified efforts to combat the pollution crisis, according to officials. "The process of sprinkling water is underway in the national capital in view of the pollution in the city," a Public Works Department (PWD) official stated. Road dust is constantly monitored by anti-smog cannons, which we also employ in construction zones."The 'Red light on, Gaadi off' campaign was initiated by the Delhi government on October 28th, with the aim of raising awareness among commuters and motorists about the increasing levels of pollution and motivating them to turn off their vehicles. A year after Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena placed it on hold due to concerns about its efficacy, it was relaunched. Gopal Rai, the environment minister, had previously announced that 2,500 civil defence volunteers would be sent out to oversee the campaign's execution at 100 strategically important traffic crossings. Delhi's air quality, with an AQI of 315 till Thursday morning, was still classified as "very poor," and by the evening it had dropped to 418. It became worse on Friday morning, with the AQI rising to 450.GRAP divides actions into four stages: 'Very Poor' (AQI 301–400), 'Poor' (AQI 201-300), 'Severe' (AQI 401–450), and 'Severe Plus' (AQI beyond 450) are the stages into which actions fall. According to officials, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has set up Rs 20 lakh for each zone to implement air pollution control measures. They said that the MCD is concentrating its efforts on using labour and equipment to remove trash from train tracks. According to an MCD spokesman, the organisation plans to buy dust suppressants, which will be sprayed during non-peak hours at least every other day using water sprinklers and anti-smog guns.

DEVBHUMI DWARKA: Bollywood star Kangana Ranaut made a suggestion on Friday that she would run in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections provided Lord Krishna blesses her. She had come to the well-known Dwarkadhish temple of Lord Krishna to offer prayers this morning. Ranaut responded to reporters who questioned if she would run in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections with, "Shri Krishna ki kripa rahi to ladenge (If Lord Krishna blesses, I will fight)." "After 600 years of struggle," she said, the consecration of Lord Ram's idol in Ayodhya was made possible by the Union government led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)."After 600 years of struggle, we Indians are able to see this day thanks to the efforts of the BJP government. We shall celebrate greatly when we erect the temple. The actor, who recently starred in the film "Tejas" as an Indian Air Force pilot, declared that the flag of Sanatan Dharma ought to be flown everywhere. Ranaut also implored the government to provide a facility that would enable pilgrims to see the underwater remnants of the lost city of Dwarka. "Dwarka is a divine city, as I constantly repeat. Here, everything is incredible. There is Dwarkadhish in every particle. The moment I see Him, I am blessed. I make it a point to visit this place as often as I can to receive the Lord's darshan. However, I come anytime I get a minute off from work," she said to reporters. One may also observe Dwarka, which is submerged under water, from above. I want the government to build a place where people can see the remnants underwater. Krishna City is like heaven to me," the woman remarked. Ranaut also discussed her next projects, which include "Tanu Weds Manu Part 3" and "Emergency," which she is both producing and directing.

NEW DELHI, Nov 3: India's Chief Justice, D Y Chandrachud, asked attorneys not to ask for postponements in new cases on Friday, stating that he does not want the Supreme Court to become into a "tareekh-pe-tareekh" court. The CJI brought up the problem of attorneys requesting adjournments in new cases at the beginning of the day's hearings, stating that in the previous two months, advocates had submitted postponement slips in 3,688 cases. "If not absolutely essential, kindly do not file the adjournment slips.The Chief Justice of India, who shared the bench with Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra, declared, "I don't want this court to be a 'tareekh-pe-tareekh' court."In the well-known dialogue "Tareekh-pe-Tareekh" (repeated adjournments) from the Bollywood film "Damini," Sunny Deol bemoaned the practise of judicial adjournments. According to the CJI, the time interval between the filing of new matters at the top court and their listing has been greatly shortened thanks to the support of lawyers' associations. But he regretted that after being listed before the benches, attorneys request adjournments, sending a very negative message to the outside world. "I've seen that the time between filing and listing is getting shorter. Without the assistance of the Supreme Court Advocates-on Record Association (SCAORA) and the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA), we would not have been able to do this, the Chief Justice stated.We have 178 adjournment slips for November 3. The CJI stated, "This defeats the very purpose of expediting the case. Since October, there have been 150 adjournment slips for each miscellaneous day, and from September to October, 3,688 adjournment slips were circulated."

The celebration of 2023 as the International Year of Millets intends to highlight India as the world's food basket. The international event was not able to be organised in the following years because of the COVID-19 epidemic, which took place during the first edition in 2017. "Seed Capital Assistance" will assist SHGs in increasing their marketable prices through higher-quality manufacturing and better packaging. Union Minister of Food Processing Industries Pashupati Kumar Paras encouraged international businesses to make investments in India in this field during his speech.According to Union Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal, the Modi administration has strengthened the nation's food processing industry and guaranteed the nation's food security. He outlined the development initiatives carried out by the national government over the last nine years. Around 200 cooks will participate in the "Food Street," which showcases regional cuisines and royal culinary legacy, and will include traditional Indian cuisine. Government agencies, business leaders, farmers, entrepreneurs, and other interested parties will have a forum to network, develop alliances, and look into investment opportunities in the agri-food sector through World Food India. CEO roundtables with an emphasis on investment and ease of doing business will also be held during the event.
