12 Jan 2021 Editorial Team

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is likely to visit Noida on the occasion of UP Diwas, which will be celebrated on January 25 at Shilp Haat in Sector 33A. While the Noida Authority plans the inauguration of projects worth Rs 415 crore on the occasion, speculation is rife that Adityanath could announce some big-ticket state projects once the visit is confirmed.

To mark the occasion, an exhibition of all 75 districts of UP will be held at the Haat, along with cultural programmes. Projects that are likely to be inaugurated by the CM include Shaheed Bhagat Singh Park in Sector 150, Bio-diversity Park in Sector 91, the Film City parking in Sector-16A, underground parking in Sector 3, a shooting range at the Sector 21A indoor stadium, a modern auditorium at Panchsheel Balak Inter College in Sector 91 and the light and sound show in Sector 15A.

As per sources, the land in front of Shilp Haat may be used for a makeshift helipad for the CM, and his programme may not be limited to the achievements of Noida-Greater Noida alone but may include the announcement of some state-level projects.

Encroachments Delay Rs 1 Billion Ghatkopar Bridge Project

The construction of a new cable-stayed rail overbridge at Ghatkopar and the widening of the Andheri–Ghatkopar Link Road (AGLR) have been delayed due to the presence of nearly 250 encroached structures on both sides of the road.
