RIVER STREAM RAM MANDIR

The Ram Mandir trust in Ayodhya on asked the Indian Institutes of Technology to suggest better models for the foundation of the temple after a stream of the Sarayu River has been found below the foundation stone during the excavation on Tuesday.

The construction committee of the temple, chaired by former principal secretary to the prime minister Nripendra Misra held deliberations over the matter on Tuesday, said the existing model for the foundation of the temple was not feasible as a stream of the Sarayu River is flowing below the temple.

The discovery of Sarayu River stream is being seen as a huge obstacle in the way of construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya and also being considered unsafe for the foundation of the temple, for which the trust has sought help from IITs. According to the PTI reports that the Trust is now looking to use vibro stone columns to support rafts on which stones can be placed or improving the quality and grip of soil by adding engineering mix to it.

In such a situation, while the Ram temple is targeted to be completed by 2023, due to the hindrance in the Foundation work, the possibility of delay in it has increased. The construction of temple was to start from January 15, but now it is difficult to move forward with construction before resolving the issue. The temple will be built as per the design prepared by architect Sompura, a renowned architect who had to prepare the design in 1989.

Zomato has introduced a new feature called Food Rescue to prevent food wastage, announced the CEO of online food delivery platform Deepinder Goyal on Sunday.

Announcing the new feature, Goyal said the decision, to introduce the new feature, was taken to prevent the tremendous amount of food wastage due to order cancellation on the platform.

“We don’t encourage order cancellation at Zomato, because it leads to a tremendous amount of food wastage,” he said.

The Zomato boss said despite stringent policies, and a no-refund policy for cancellations, more than 4 lakh perfectly good orders get cancelled on Zomato, for various reasons by customers.

He said the top concern for the online food delivery platform, the restaurant industry, and even the customers who cancel these orders, is to somehow save the food from going to waste.

With the introduction of the new feature, Food Rescue, cancelled orders will now pop up for nearby customers, who can grab them at an unbeatable price, in their original untampered packaging, and receive them in just minutes.

According to Zomato, the cancelled order will pop up on the app for customers within a 3 km radius of the delivery partner carrying the order. To ensure freshness, the option to claim will only be available for a few minutes.

The online food delivery platform will not keep any proceeds except the required government taxes and the amount paid by the new customer will be shared with the original customer (if they made payment online) and with the restaurant partner.

Orders containing items sensitive to distances or temperature such as ice creams, shakes, smoothies, and certain perishable items, will not be eligible for Food Rescue.

Restaurant partners will continue to receive compensation for the original cancelled order, plus a portion of the amount paid by the new customer if the order is claimed, the app said. “Most restaurants have opted in for this feature, and can opt of it easily whenever they want, directly from their control panels,” it added.

The delivery partners will be compensated fully for the entire trip, from the initial pickup to the final drop-off at the new customer’s location, it said.

Food Rescue will show up on the customers’ home page automatically if there’s a cancelled order available for them to grab. The Customers have to refresh the home page to check for any newly available orders which need to be rescued.

In Jharkhand, PM Modi says people are hankering for a handful of sand, Congress-JMM smuggling it

JMM-Congress have nothing to do with the issue of the people, they are filling their coffers, Modi said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday lashed out at the Congress-JMM coalition over its corruption, saying the alliance is busy selling rivers, streams, and mountains in the state, adding their leaders, in fact, have built houses by smuggling sand. PM Modi alleged that they are taking bribes even for birth and death certificates.

Addressing the rally in Jharkhand’s Gumala, the Prime Minister said: “This is your money, you are its owner and Modi will not let your money be looted.” He added that “those who have looted will have to return it and spend their lives in jail” once his party comes to power in the state.

JMM-Congress have nothing to do with the issue of the people, they are filling their coffers, Modi said.

Hitting out at the alliance, PM Modi said: “You have seen the mountains of notes of the JMM and Congress leaders and ministers. I have been a Chief Minister and even become a Prime Minister, but I have never seen such huge mountains of notes in my life. I saw such mountains for the first time on TV. So many notes came out that the machines got tired of counting them.”

“If you divide into castes then the strength of the tribals will diminish. That’s why I say – if we stay united, we will be safe,” he reiterated his statement targeting the Congress party.

Till there was no unity between OBCs, tribals and Dalits, the Congress kept forming governments at the Centre, claimed Modi.

“Beware of Congress-JMM’s evil designs and conspiracies. They can go to any extent to snatch power. Congress has been an opponent of SC, ST, and OBC unity since Independence,” Modi said.

“More than 125 sub-castes are considered OBCs in the Chotanagpur region. Congress-JMM wants to break the OBC unity by pitting sub-castes against each other. I warn you ‘ek rahoge toh safe rahoge’,” he added. He said a BJP-led government was needed in Jharkhand to drive out infiltrators and eradicate corruption.
