Efforts of the Virudhunagar district administration in identifying the best-performing students and giving them focussed training has helped another government school student from an economically weaker background get admission into a premier national educational institution. M. Ajay Kumar, a student of Government Higher Secondary School, Ilupaiyur has benefited under the Naan Mudhalvan Scheme and has got admission for Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at the National Institute of Technology, Rourkela. The son of a truck driver, Ajay Kumar, was identified for the programme by his school Headmistress, Parameswari. 'It was the Headmistress who encouraged me to set my goals higher. I only followed her advice,' said Ajay Kumar. He was motivated when the district Collector V.P. Jeyaseelan gave a pep talk to select students at one of the Coffee with Collector programmes, said Kumar. Expert guidance and support provided Kumar said that he was given coaching and reading materials for the JEE Mains. Eventually, he cleared the exam and got admitted into NIT-Rourkela. 'My teachers helped me to select the courses,' he added. All his educational expenses will be taken care of by the Tamil Nadu government. 'We selected the best-performing students under each reservation category, such as Scheduled Tribes and persons with disabilities, and provided them with focused online training, expert-guided application and choice filling support through our dedicated control room,' Mr. Jeyaseelan said. Out of the 230 students trained, around 30 have cleared the exams and are expected to get admissions from premier Central institutes such as the IITs and the Institute of Fashion Technology, the Collector added. Logeshwari Selvam, a student from Government higher Secondary School in Padanthal, who had received training through the Naan Mudhalvan scheme, also got admission for Aerospace Engineering in IIT Bombay.

Akkulam glass bridge set to open after safety nod
T'puram: The glass bridge at Akkulam tourist village is set to open to the public, following a positive safety assessment by the National Institute of Technology (NIT), Kozhikode. The bridge which has been in the spotlight for its aesthetic appeal and engineering, is now in its final stages before inauguration. An expert team from NIT conducted a detailed evaluation of the bridge's design, materials and structural integrity last month. The team concluded the structure is safe and fit for public use, a significant reassurance after earlier safety concerns about the glass floor. "The bridge has met all required safety standards and we've received confirmation that it is safe for the public," said Binu Kuriakose, an official from the Kerala Adventure Tourism Promotion Society (KATPS). "The govt will now finalise an inauguration date in consultation with senior officials and local representatives," he added. Part of a state initiative to boost tourism infrastructure, the bridge is expected to become a major attraction in Thiruvananthapuram. Spanning 52 metres across the scenic Akkulam backwaters, it offers panoramic views and a unique walking experience. The project was delayed by nearly a year due to design changes and mandatory safety clearances. Cracks found in the 12mm, three-layered glass panels led to a complete replacement and the addition of an extra glass layer based on state committee recommendations. The upgraded bridge now features multiple safety enhancements, along with an LED wall that simulates breaking glass for added thrill. Visitors can also enjoy artificial fog, mist and dynamic lighting effects. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .

Narela to Vindhyachal: This Delhi sub-city may soon get a new name, new image
Narela may soon be renamed Vindhyachal. According to officials of the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), the move to rename the sub-city is to give it a 'new image'. Vindhyachal or the Vindhays refers to the disjointed network of mountains, hills and plateaus in western and central India, stretching from Gujarat to Uttar Pradesh. But the village of Narela, which lies at the northern edge of Delhi, after which the sub-city is named, will retain its name. 'We have many projects there and are also building a world-class education city now… so we want to give it a new image,' a senior DDA official said. 'Dwarka and Rohini were also new names given to the sub-cities; they didn't exist before. Similarly, a new suitable name was found for Narela… The renaming is in accordance with the features of the sub-city, such as its eco-friendly milieu, a large green cover, and open spaces. The new name will give the project a new identity and is commensurate with its beautiful location and the kind of infrastructure already developed,' said another official. In recent years, a number of educational institutes, including the National Institute of Technology and the Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women, have been allotted land parcels in Narela. This March, plans for a sports city in Narela were also unveiled, with L-G V K Saxena aiming to position the area as an educational and sports hub. The Narela sub-city is one of the three mega sub-city projects of DDA, the others being Dwarka and Rohini. 'The sub-city would be a unique conglomeration of diverse activities — affordable, functional, environmentally sustainable, recreationally adequate and aesthetically pleasing,' according to the DDA's website. Zone P-1 — Delhi has been divided into 15 planning zones, according to the Master Plan 2021 — which houses the Narela sub-city project, is spread across 9,866 hectares. The project is spread over 3,828 hectares, with the rest falling under green development and land pooling areas. While work in Narela started in the late 1980s, alongside Rohini and Dwarka sub-cities, construction picked up only around 2000, and DDA started offering flats for purchase between 2008 and 2010, said A K Jain, former planning commissioner, DDA. Over the years, DDA has struggled to find buyers for its housing inventory in Narela, primarily due to a lack of connectivity with other parts of Delhi. The Union Cabinet approved the proposal for the Rithala-Narela-Nathupur (Kundli) corridor of Delhi Metro's Phase-IV project last December, which is expected to be completed in the next 4-5 years. Sales of affordable housing have seen an increase after the approval of the Metro corridor, according to DDA officials. Devansh Mittal is a trainee correspondent with The Indian Express.
