Lucknow Metro update
The dream of Lucknow to have a metro rail has inched a bit closer towards reality. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), after conducting an initial feasibility study, has sought the state government approval for preparing a detailed project report (DPR) on the proposed project. LDA vice-chairman, Mukesh Meshram said that they had received a letter from DMRC on preparing a DPR, which would be completed in a span of nine months.The DMRC, in fact, would be the consultant for the proposed project, for which they would be given a fee of Rs four crore. The proposed metro rail in Lucknow would be constructed in two corridors — North-South and East-West. The North-South corridor would begin from Amausi airport and would pass through Krishnanagar, Alambagh, Charbagh, Hussainganj, Vidhan Sabha, Hazratganj, Parivartan chowk, Lucknow university, IT crossing, Mahanagar before ending at Munshi Pulia in Indiranagar. The total stretch would be of 27 Kms.Likewise, the east-west corridor, stretching over a distance of 14 Kms, would begin in Gomtinagar and would pass through Wazir Hasan road, Jawahar Bhawan, Shakti Bhawan, Hazratganj (via Ashok marg), Aminabad before merging at Sector 13 of Rajajipuram. Meshram said that the consultants would be studying the project to assess as to where the train would run under ground and where it would move on an elevated section.Though the likely cost of the project is yet to be decided, LDA officials said that the authority would bear 60 per cent of the total cost while the rest 40 per cent would be given by the ministry of urban development, Government of India. Meshram said that they hoped to get funds for the project under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). Plans are also afoot to rope in private companies on a publicprivate-partnership (PPP) basis. A final decision, however, is yet to be taken.

Guardian minister Ganesh naik meets principals of schools and colleges
A meet was held with the principals and parents to resolve the various issues that parents face at the time of their child’s admission. The meet was presided and heard by Thane Guardian Minister Ganesh Naik.
Getting admissions in a good college and completing the admission procedure is no less a trauma for a parent as it is for a student. To resolve the various issues that parents face, a meet was held at NMSA between principals and parents. The meet was presided over by Thane Guardian Minister Ganesh Naik. Principal of ICL College, Jayshree Dau stated that they have always tried to provide admissions to students with economically weaker backgrounds, orphans or physically challenged. But it also necessary for them to have the requisite documents from the student. Thane Guardian Minister Ganesh Naik urged the schools to provide admission to the needy without taking donations or charging high fees. What was a disappointment was that many city schools failed to participate in the meet. The minister said that they would try to inform the schools of the discussions and resolutions taken today.
Also present were NMMC Commissioner Vijay Nahata, NMMC Education Chairman Ravi Iyer, and DCP, Zone 1 - Pratap Digavkar who reiterated what Guardian Minister Ganesh Naik said.
It is very good city for tourists. It has world class amenities. It has a great historical value.
