Indrakeeladri Ghat road repair works halted due to heatwave in Vijayawada

The rehabilitation works on the Indrakeeladri Ghat Road leading to the Kanaka Durga temple have been temporarily suspended due to extreme weather conditions and intense heatwave prevailing in the city. The repair works, jointly undertaken by the Endowments Department and Roads & Buildings (R&B) Department, commenced on May 26 from the tollgate up to the hilltop road. The authorities had initially planned to complete the works by June 12. However, the R&B Sub-Division Deputy Executive Engineer informed the temple authorities through an official letter on Thursday that the present weather conditions were not suitable for continuing the road rehabilitation works.

In view of the situation, the R&B Department requested the temple authorities to revise the work schedule until weather conditions return to normal. The officials said permanent rehabilitation works …

Goa fishing trips halted as LPG shortage hits trawlers amid West Asia conflict| India News

This means trawlers have stopped setting out to sea until they can procure the cylinders,” Dhond told reporters. “Fish is going to become scarce over the next few days,” he added.
