Sharp Drop in Vegetable Prices Brings Relief to Jaipur Households — Check the New Rates

Jaipur: In a major relief to households struggling with rising inflation, retail vegetable prices in Jaipur have fallen sharply compared to last month. Thanks to a bumper arrival of fresh produce from nearby farming belts, tomatoes are now selling at ₹50–60 per kg, while cauliflower has dropped to ₹30–40 per kg in the local markets. Traders at the city’s largest wholesale hub, Muhana Mandi, have attributed this decline to improved crop conditions and increased winter supply. Fresh Supply from Local Farming Zones Drives Prices Down Areas such as Bagru, Bassi, Tunga, and Chomu have witnessed a surge in the arrival of fresh winter vegetables. This enhanced supply has helped stabilise retail prices across the city. Retail prices that had soared in November have now moderated significa...

SIR Mega Camp Today in Prayagraj: Last Chance for Voters to Submit Forms or Lose Benefits

Prayagraj: Under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voter list, a mega camp is being organised today in Prayagraj to assist citizens with verification and documentation.

Bihar: Chandpur–Gabhirar Bridge to Stand on 47 Piers; Distance Between Siwan and UP to Reduce by 100 KM

Patna:The Chandpur–Gabhirar Bridge—an important link between Bihar and Uttar Pradesh—is now being redesigned with a stronger engineering model. Continuous erosion, flooding, and shifting currents of the Sarayu River have forced the authorities to overhaul the original structure. Earlier planned on 28 piers, the bridge will now be built on 47 piers to ensure long-term stability and safety. Once completed, the bridge will reduce the distance between Siwan (Bihar) and Uttar Pradesh by nearly 100 kilometers, significantly boosting regional connectivity. 24 Additional Piers Recommended for Safety A technical survey conducted by experts from Roorkee concluded that the river’s evolving behavior demands a much stronger foundation. The team recommended 24 additional piers, taking the total...
