In Chhatarpur, IPS officer Agam Jain saw a simple truth — most road accidents weren’t just about negligence, but about access. People forgot helmets, borrowed rides, or avoided buying one altogether. So instead of only issuing challans, he built something unusual: a Helmet Bank. Today, over 40,000 riders have borrowed a helmet, ridden safely, and returned it back into circulation. On Civil Servants’ Day, swipe to see how one idea changed road safety in Chhatarpur. #CivilServantsDay #IPSOfficer #Chhatarpur [Civil Servants Day, IPS Agam Jain, Chhatarpur]

A major push towards seamless urban mobility in Gurugram 🚧 - A 4.2 km signal-free elevated corridor is planned from Vatika Chowk to NH-48. With grade-separated junctions and improved road design, the project will ease congestion on the Southern Peripheral Road, strengthen connectivity across key routes and corridors to enable smoother, faster commutes along the stretch. #UrbanMobility #TrafficRelief #SignalFree #Infrastructure #BetterConnectivity #Gurugram #DwarkaExpressway #NH48 #SohnaElevatedCorridor

@PetroleumMin Why the agencies are not adequately positioned to provide the refill bookings. The LPG is sold in black. There is panic everywhere. Someone who is earning INR 300 -400 a day cannot afford INR 700/kg. Please help and address this.

Clarification: LPG Refill Booking Timings Reports circulating in sections of the news and on social media about changes in LPG refill booking norms are incorrect. There is no change in LPG refill booking norms. • Minimum gap between two refill bookings remains:  – 25 days in urban areas  – 45 days in rural areas • These timelines continue as per existing guidelines. Please, avoid panic booking. There is adequate LPG availability to meet demand. Read more: pib.gov.in/PressReleasePa… @HardeepSPuri @Secretary_MoPNG @IndianOilcl @BPCLimited @HPCL

Concluded a productive visit to Brussels, meeting with the #EuropeanUnion Foreign Affairs Council, calling on Presidents of the @EUCouncil António Costa and @EU_Commission @vonderleyen, and holding talks with EU HRVP @kajakallas. Also met EU counterparts and held separate bilateral discussions with many. Ten key messages in these conversations were: ✅ The finalization of the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) represents a turning point in 🇮🇳 🇪🇺 ties. Will not only unlock its enormous economic potential but express the strategic nature of our engagement. ✅ To realize the gains of FTA on the ground, the two sides should proactively assist each other in practical activities, including trade and investment promotion. ✅ The Trade and Technology Council (TTC) can be upgraded and repurposed to facilitate collaboration in critical and cutting-edge technologies. ✅ De-risking supply chains and enhancing resilience are shared objectives. The FTA will encourage deeper business linkages to that end. ✅ Mobility of skills and talent flows are very important. The establishment of the Legal Gateway Office in India is noteworthy. We have a common interest in promoting Global Capability Centers (GCCs) in India. ✅ The Security and Defence Partnership will be taken forward. Will endeavour to conclude the Security of Information Agreement early. ✅ Connectivity is also prominent in our agenda. Will work together to give practical shape to IMEC and other such initiatives. ✅ As multilateralism comes under stress, India and the EU will strive to strengthen its institutions and practices. ✅ Our Strategic Partnership will be carried out through close and regular consultations at the leadership level. Domain specific mechanisms will support those efforts. ✅ In a multipolar and uncertain world, the India-EU partnership will act as a factor of stability and resilience.

#HTExclusive || The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Gandhinagar discontinued its association with its guest professor Michel Danino, two days after the Supreme Court ordered governments as well as public institutions to dissociate from him and two others involved in drafting a now-withdrawn National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) Class 8 textbook which had a section on “corruption in the judiciary”.

#IPGF2024 | Indo-Pacific is not just the fastest growing region in the world, but a strategic avenue of trade, commerce, cooperation, shared values and mutual security. The 14th edition of the Indo-Pacific Geo-intelligence Forum (IPGF), is one day away. Going to be held at the Vivanta by Taj, Dwarka, New Delhi, the two day event will highlight the combined power of geospatial intelligence, space-based assets, and cutting-edge innovation to tackle critical threats in the strategic Indo-Pacific region. @Esri | @BlackSky_Inc | @MapmyIndia | @hawkeye360 | @kaleideo | @Mgtechsoft | @INSPACeIND | @satcom_india | @USCCFoundation | @IADMag | @IndiaStrategic | @GWChamber | @sanjaykumar1970 | @ajaychandele #Geointelligence #SpaceExploration #GeoIntelligence #IndoPacificGeoIntel2024 #IndoPacific #IndoPacificGeointelligenceSummit2024 #DefenceandIntelligence #CyberWarfare

Our panel discussion at the U.S.-India Commercial Space Cooperation Conference, co-hosted by @USIBC and @USCSIndia and moderated by Dr. Rajeshree Dutta Kumar, Vice President - Programs & Partnerships, @GWChamber, focused on 'Geospatial & Space Situational Awareness (#SSA) – Brown and Greenfield Segments.' The geospatial market represents a half trillion-dollar opportunity, with India being a leading international provider of data. However, historically, India has lacked global distribution of its data and has commercially underutilized international #geospatial datasets for business, government, and science. The new geospatial policy aims to change that, alongside the development of nascent markets for #SSA and ancillary products and services. @USAmbKeshap @earth2miller @aslater00_India @adityakaushik00 @sameerguduru @USCSIndia @USAndIndia @sspi @satcom_india @ISpA_India @GWChamber @Maxar @azistabst @Digantarahq @sat_sure

#WATCH | Uttar Pradesh: A girl named Nikita in Basti district saved her younger sister and herself by using the voice of the Alexa device when monkeys entered their home. Nikita says, "A few guests visited our home and they left the gate open. Monkeys entered the kitchen and started throwing things here and there. The kid was scared and so did I but then I saw Alexa and asked it to play the sound of a dog. Because of that barking sound, the monkeys were scared and ran away."
