Navi Mumbai Airport Inauguration Leaves Villagers Disappointed Over No D B Patil Naming Announcement

Villagers from Navi Mumbai and adjoining coastal districts have expressed deep disappointment following the inauguration of the Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA). During the event, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis made only passing references to the late farmer leader D. B. Patil, without officially announcing that the airport would be named after him.

Just before the ceremony, Dashrat Patil, President of the NMIA Kruti Samiti (All-Party Action Committee), had expressed optimism. “I am sure today is the day the airport will get its much-deserved name. Our hard work will not go waste,” he said.

### Hopes Dashed Despite PM and CM Mentions

However, during the inauguration, PM Modi merely stated, “Today I would also like to remember the great leader D. B. Patil, who toiled for farmers and remains an inspiration to all of us.” Similarly, Chief Minister Fadnavis acknowledged Patil’s contributions but stopped short of making any formal naming declaration.

“When Fadnavis called out D. B. Patil’s name, we were hopeful it was about the airport naming,” shared Dashrat Patil. “It was a huge disappointment. He had earlier assured us that the Prime Minister had agreed in principle, but nothing was mentioned today.”

The Kruti Samiti has announced plans to meet CM Fadnavis within the next ten days to seek documentary clarity on the airport naming process.

### Locals Threaten Political Action

According to Nilesh Patil, a member of the Action Committee representing project-affected persons (PAPs), the silence from the Prime Minister has triggered anger among locals. “We were all waiting to hear that the airport would be named after our leader. It’s really disappointing, and there will be repercussions,” he said.

Leaders of the committee and representatives of affected villages have hinted at intensifying their agitation and potentially taking decisive political steps ahead of the upcoming civic elections.

### Long-Standing Demand Across Coastal Maharashtra

The demand to name NMIA after D. B. Patil has been a decades-long movement, uniting villages from Mumbai, Thane, Raigad, Ratnagiri, and Sindhudurg districts. These communities are collectively represented by the D. B. Patil Navi Mumbai Airport Naming All-Party Action Committee.

A massive morcha (protest march) planned for October 6 was postponed after Chief Minister Fadnavis assured further talks.

“We would not let any flight take off if the naming is not done,” warned Dhanraj Mungaji from the committee. “It was a golden day for aviation, and today the announcement should have been made. We are extremely disappointed, but our fight will continue.”

Bhopal News: Traffic Fine Pile Up; E-Challans Worth Over ₹5 Crore Issued, Only ₹50 Lakh Paid So Far

**Bhopal’s Intelligent Traffic Management System Issues Thousands of E-Challans, but Fine Payments Remain Low**

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) in Bhopal continues to monitor traffic violations closely and issue e-challans regularly. However, despite the high number of fines being generated, the majority of offenders have yet to pay their dues.

According to data from the city traffic police, from January to September this year, a total of 1,54,500 e-challans were issued for various traffic violations, including red light jumping, not wearing helmets, over-speeding, and triple riding. Unfortunately, only 13,398 violators have cleared their fines so far.

Out of a total penalty amounting to Rs 5,33,02,100, just Rs 50,13,600 has been collected. This leaves approximately Rs 4.82 crore pending from 1,41,102 offenders.

### Most Common Violations

The data highlights that riding without a helmet remains the most frequent violation recorded by ITMS cameras. Red signal jumping is the second most common offense. Over-speeding, although a major cause of road accidents, accounts for comparatively fewer challans. Of the 3,759 over-speeding challans issued, only 760 fines have been paid.

Similarly, many two-wheelers carrying three riders have been fined, yet payment compliance in these cases also remains poor.

### Monthly Trends

When viewed month-wise, July saw the highest number of e-challans at 24,881. However, by the end of September, this number had dropped sharply to 7,179. In May, the total challans issued were 10,475.

### Enforcement vs. Compliance

Additional DCP (Traffic), Basant Kumar Kaul, acknowledged that while ITMS has been effective in identifying violators and issuing fines efficiently, ensuring payment recovery remains a challenge. He emphasized that the primary goal of e-challans is not just to collect fines but to promote responsible driving habits among citizens.

### Violation Breakdown

– Not wearing helmet: 1,29,137 challans
– Red light jumping: 16,898 challans
– Triple riding: 4,706 challans
– Over-speeding: 3,759 challans

FPJ Impact: Maha Metro Begins Repair Of Pothole-Ridden Old Mumbai-Pune Highway Service Road In Pimpri-Chinchwad

**Pimpri-Chinchwad: Maha Metro Begins Repair Work on Pothole-Ridden Service Road of Old Mumbai-Pune Highway**

After widespread public outrage and multiple reports in the media, Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation Limited (Maha Metro) has finally initiated repair work on the heavily damaged service road along the Old Mumbai-Pune Highway. The road, which stretches from Bhakti-Shakti Chowk in Nigdi to the Chinchwad Railway Station Chowk, had developed numerous potholes due to ongoing metro construction activities.

The Free Press Journal (FPJ) had extensively covered this issue, highlighting residents’ complaints and the slow response from authorities. The damaged road has caused significant inconvenience to daily commuters, especially during peak hours when traffic congestion often resulted in vehicles taking over half an hour to cover just five kilometers.

### Background

The repair work is linked to the Pimpri to Nigdi extended metro route currently underway on the Purple Line of Pune Metro. This line connects the Pimpri-Chinchwad area to Swargate. For the project, Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) had handed over the service road and BRT route of the Old Mumbai-Pune Highway—from Nigdi’s Bhakti-Shakti Chowk to Empire Estate in Chinchwad, covering approximately 4.5 kilometers—to Maha Metro. With this transfer, Maha Metro became responsible for the maintenance and repair of the road.

Metro construction activities on this stretch include road digging, erection of pillars, and viaduct work. To ensure safety and facilitate construction, Maha Metro installed barricades along the route, narrowing the service road significantly. Additionally, footpaths were dug up and temporarily converted into roadways.

### Issues Faced by Residents

Residents reported that the narrowed road, coupled with heavy vehicular traffic and recent rains, resulted in numerous potholes developing on concrete surfaces, asphalt roads, and footpaths. Traffic snarls during peak hours led to long queues and slow movement, aggravating commuter frustration.

PCMC sent three letters to Maha Metro requesting urgent repairs to the service road. However, the initial lack of response added to public dissatisfaction.

### Road Repair Work Commences

Under mounting public pressure and media scrutiny, Maha Metro finally agreed to undertake permanent road repairs. In coordination with traffic authorities, Maha Metro’s Managing Director, Shravan Hardikar, requested phased temporary road closures and traffic diversions to enable unhindered repair work.

Following these arrangements, road repairs commenced on Tuesday, focusing on asphalting the stretch from Nigdi to Chinchwad Station. Officials stated that the work started only after the rains subsided to ensure effective repairs.

Bapusaheb Gaikwad, Joint City Engineer of PCMC, commented:
*”We had corresponded with the Metro administration regarding the repair of the service road. With the end of the rainy season, the Metro has undertaken the road repair work. Asphalting is being done on the road. Instructions have been given to complete the work quickly.”*

The repair work is expected to significantly improve the condition of this critical stretch, making it pothole-free and easing traffic woes for daily commuters.

—

*This marks a positive step towards addressing the concerns of residents affected by the metro construction and enhancing urban infrastructure in Pimpri-Chinchwad.*

Bhopal News: Girl’s Death In Celebratory Firing; Weapons Seized From Licensed Owner For Ballistic Examination

**Bhopal: Police Seize Rifle for Ballistic Examination Following Death of 10-Year-Old Girl During Dussehra Celebrations**

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Police have seized a .315 bore rifle and fired cartridges from a licensed owner and sent them to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL), Sagar, for ballistic examination following the tragic death of a 10-year-old girl during Dussehra celebrations in Bhopal.

Sources from the police department revealed that the firearm belongs to a senior retired police officer, and the firing took place in an open-air location.

The victim, Riya Rajak, daughter of Sunil Rajak and a resident of Shashi Hi-Tech City, Rajharsh Colony, was injured on October 2 when a stray bullet struck her shoulder. She was rushed to a private hospital around noon but unfortunately succumbed to her injuries at 4:55 p.m.

Initially, doctors did not confirm a gunshot wound, and a case under the relevant section was registered. However, a postmortem conducted at Gandhi Medical College on October 3 revealed a .315 bore bullet inside her body, confirming that the cause of death was a firearm injury. Subsequently, an FIR was filed against an unknown person.

Investigations by a special police team revealed that the bullet was fired during Dussehra puja from an open area roughly one kilometer away from where Riya was struck.

Authorities have stated that further action will be taken based on the FSL report, as the investigation continues to identify the person responsible for this tragic incident.

**MPHRC Seeks Detailed Investigation Report**

Taking note of the child’s death due to celebratory firing, Avadhesh Pratap Singh, a member of the Madhya Pradesh Human Rights Commission (MPHRC), has directed the Bhopal Police Commissioner to submit a detailed investigation report within two weeks.

The commission is closely monitoring the case to ensure justice is served.

Disgusting! Customer Shocked To Find Cockroach In Ragi Sangati Meal At Kritunga Restaurant In Hyderabad; Complaint Filed – VIDEO

**Customer Finds Cockroach in Food at Popular Hyderabad Restaurant**

*Hyderabad, October 06:*

In a shocking incident, a customer was stunned to discover a cockroach inside his meal while dining at a well-known restaurant in Hyderabad. The customer captured the incident on video and shared it on social media, sparking widespread concern.

**Incident Details**

The incident reportedly took place at Kritunga Restaurant located in the Nanakramguda area of Hyderabad. The customer had ordered the Ragi Sangati meal and had already consumed half of it when he noticed a small cockroach inside the food. The discovery left him both shocked and disgusted.

Immediately after spotting the insect, the customer confronted the restaurant staff to address the unhygienic condition of the food served.

**Staff Response Raises Concerns**

When the customer raised his concerns with the restaurant management, their response was reportedly careless and dismissive. The staff did not take the issue seriously, which further aggravated the situation.

Frustrated by the management’s indifferent attitude, the customer decided to register a formal complaint with the Food Safety Department. He has demanded strict action against the restaurant for poor hygiene standards and unsafe food practices.

**What Is a Ragi Sangati Meal?**

Ragi Sangati, also known as Ragi Mudde, is a traditional South Indian dish commonly prepared in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka. It is made by mixing finger millet (ragi) flour with cooked rice and water until it forms a soft, dough-like ball.

This meal is highly nutritious, rich in calcium, iron, and fiber. It is typically served alongside spicy chicken curry, sambar, or dal, making it a wholesome and popular choice in the region.

**Bhopal Police Nab Two Members of Notorious Theft Gang, Recover Stolen Valuables Worth Rs 1.5 Crore**

Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh – The Kohefiza police have arrested two members of a notorious gang involved in theft and identified three more absconding suspects. The operation led to the recovery of stolen gold jewellery and other valuables valued at Rs 1.5 crore.

The case came to light on September 29 when Kamal Shobhani, a resident of Om Nagar, Halalpura, filed a complaint regarding a burglary at his neighbour Anand Parashar’s house. Following the report, police registered a case and launched a thorough investigation.

Deputy Police Commissioner Abhinav Chouksey informed the media on Monday that dedicated teams were formed to track down the accused. The investigation involved analyzing CCTV footage and PSTN data from the area, which helped pinpoint several suspicious phone numbers.

Acting on this intelligence, police successfully apprehended two suspects and recovered the stolen items from their possession. The arrested individuals include Ravi Vishwakarma alias Nikki (30), a resident of Subhash Nagar, from whom gold jewellery valued at Rs 1.3 crore was seized. Alongside him, a woman accomplice was also arrested, with jewellery and two mobile phones worth Rs 20 lakh recovered from her.

The total recovered items include approximately 1,250 grams of gold jewellery, four mobile phones, and three silver coins — collectively estimated at Rs 1.5 crore.

DCP Chouksey further revealed that the police have identified three absconding accused: Devu alias Devashish Sharma, Ankit Tiwari (24), and Ajju alias Ajay Shakya. All three are residents of Subhash Nagar, Bhopal, with one originally from Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh. The police are actively pursuing efforts to arrest the remaining suspects.

The Kohefiza police continue their crackdown on organised crime, aiming to ensure the safety and security of the community.
