PWD gives nod for a consultant for structural audit of Signature Bridge in Delhi | Delhi News

Published by Parlour News

To ensure the structural stability of the Signature Bridge, the Public Works Department (PWD) has approved a proposal to engage a consultant to conduct a comprehensive structural audit and preparation of maintenance methodology of the city’s first asymmetrical bridge, inaugurated in 2018.

Sandipan Saha, one of two Trinamool Congress MLAs expelled on Monday, turned on the party leadership within hours of the action, alleging that the TMC “treats any talk of morality as an offence”.

(PTI Photo) “In this party, anyone who speaks of morality will be deemed to be engaging in anti-party activity, simply because the party itself does not engage in any moral conduct,” Saha told news agency ANI. “If, today, we have been suspended [note: party says expelled] for the sake of upholding morality, we are actually quite pleased,” he further said. Asked whether he would join another party, he said: “No, there is nothing like that. Why would I think about that?” Also read | TMC forgery case filed by 2 MLAs, says Suvendu Adhikari; Mamata …

CM Vijay swaps signature suit for traditional veshti at manager’s housewarming | Tamil News

3 min readHyderabadMay 29, 2026 02:42 PM IST C. Joseph Vijay has made the black suit his political uniform. Since the day he was sworn in as Tamil Nadu’s 22nd Chief Minister, the crisp Western formal look has become as much a part of his public identity as the office itself. Which is exactly why his appearance at his manager Jagdish’s housewarming ceremony caught people’s attention. At the private function, Vijay set aside his trademark formal wear and showed up in traditional attire, a quiet but noticeable departure from the image he has carefully carried into his political life. Photos from the event circulated quickly online, with many pointing out the contrast between the CM’s usual style and the more grounded, culturally rooted look he chose for the occasion. Jagdish, who has been associated with Vijay through his years in the film industry, celebrated the milestone with the CM present among the guests. The visit itself reflects the kind of personal loyalty Vijay has been known to maintain even as his world has shifted dramatically from …

Motorola Signature review: The ‘luxe’ smartphone that combines conventional and unconventional elements | Technology News

Published by Parlour News

Every year, I review flagship smartphones and return to the same question, though the answer is different each time. In a sea of high-end phones, some models make the list year after year, but with each passing year, more devices join the list – ones I never imagined would rank so high. In my opinion, this is a good thing, as more competition leads to better devices and more options for consumers. That brings me to Motorola, a household brand best known for its Razr flip phones. However, the company hasn’t been able to produce a flagship that goes head-to-head with the iPhone and the Galaxy S series. Motorola believes its new Signature series could change that perception. Here is my review of the Motorola Signature. What: Motorola Signature| Price: Rs 54,999 onwards Luxury aesthetics provides a nice visual break from overexposed phone designs To be completely honest, I have to admit that I never expected to like the Motorola Signature’s design as much as I did in person. I am a huge fan of …

Signature campaign in Kolkata to protect tamarind tree planted by revolutionary 70 years ago

Published by Parlour News

The tree was planted by freedom fighter Parul Mukherjee about 70 years ago. Photo: Debalina Majumder A signature campaign is going on to save a massive tamarind tree in a south Kolkata neighbourhood, something that residents and activists fear might be brought down if the administration does not specifically mark it as protected. The tree is important not just because it is a living landmark, serving as a home to numerous varieties of birds, but also because it was planted by freedom fighter Parul Mukherjee about 70 years ago. She was a revolutionary who in 1935, when she was only 20, was convicted in the Titagarh conspiracy case and spent four years in jail. After Independence and Partition, she moved to Calcutta to a refugee settlement that was subsequently named Vidyasagar Colony, where she died in 1990. Only recently a documentary made on the tree, Friends of Jilipibala, was selected for world premiere in the National Competition on Documentary category at the Kolkata International Film Festival. “I have been documenting this tamarind tree for 12 …
