New Delhi: GMR, Adani Among 20 Firms Keen In Redeveloping New Delhi Railway Station

GMR, Adani Among 20 Firms Keen In Redeveloping New Delhi Railway Station

At a pre-bid meeting, around 20 national and international firms -- such as the SNCF, the Arabian Construction Company, the GMR, the Adani Group, the JKB Infra, Anchorage Infrastructure -- participated

Objective of the ambitious project is to position New Delhi railway station as a multimodal hub (File)

France's state-owned railway company SNCF, the GMR Group and the Adani Group are among 20 entities that have shown interest in redeveloping the New Delhi railway station into a world-class multimodal hub.

At a pre-bid meeting on Tuesday, around 20 national and international firms -- such as the SNCF, the Arabian Construction Company, the GMR, the Adani Group, the JKB Infra, Anchorage Infrastructure -- participated.

The project, being implemented by the Rail Land Development Authority (RLDA), is estimated to cost Rs 6,500 crore and will be completed in around four years.

"The redevelopment of New Delhi Railway Station has attracted interest from leading global firms," RLDA Vice Chairman Ved Parkash Dudeja said.

The objective of the ambitious project is to position the New Delhi railway station as a multimodal hub through upgradation of the infrastructure and provision of state-of-the-art amenities such as an elevated concourse, a multi-level car parking and much more facilities.

The project would be developed on a Design-Build-Finance-Operate-Transfer (DBFOT) model for a concession period of 60 years.

"The project aims to transform New Delhi Railway Station into a world-class transit hub, in line with the Prime Minister's vision of New India. This station will be a one-stop destination for retail, commercial and hospitality. It will also boost real estate and ensure cascading development of New Delhi and surrounding regions," Mr Dudeja said.

The concessionaire will earn revenues from several components including passenger handling fees collected via ticket sales, revenues from passenger facilities within the station such as retail areas, lounges, parking, advertisement spaces, food and beverages, income from the development and lease of the commercial components to name a few, the RLDA said in a statement.

The phased exercise encompasses redevelopment of station and associated infrastructure, relocation of social infrastructure as well as the refurbishment of offices and quarters.

Other aspects include developing food courts and restrooms, an elevated concourse with segregation for arriving and departing passengers, and refurbished platforms with easy access from the concourse level.

The redevelopment plan also envisions mezzanine level exclusively for passenger facilities such as lounges, an elevated road network with multiple entry and exit points.

Green building provisions such as optimum use of natural ventilation and lighting will also be a key highlight of the redeveloped station.

New Delhi Railway Station is the largest and second busiest station in the country and handles approximately 4.5 lakh passengers daily (approximately 160 -170 million passengers annually).

The station handles 400 trains per day which are expected to increase due to higher operational efficiencies resulting from the redevelopment and better yard utilization.

The RLDA is currently working on 62 stations in a phased manner while its subsidiary, IRSDC has taken up another 61 stations for redevelopment.

In the first phase, the RLDA has prioritised prominent stations like New Delhi, Tirupati, Dehradun, Nellore, and Puducherry for redevelopment.

Railway stations across the country will be redeveloped on a PPP Model as a part of Smart City Projects launched by the government.

The RLDA is a statutory body under the Ministry of Railways for development of vacant railway land for commercial use in line with the objective to generate revenue by non-tariff measures.

Currently, the approximately 43,000 hectares of Railways land are lying vacant.

The RLDA has over 79 sites across India for leasing and the eligible developers for each will be selected through an open and transparent bid process.

The RLDA is currently also handling 84 railway colony redevelopment projects and has recently leased out a railway colony in Guwahati for redevelopment.

Serum Institute Gets Nod To Resume Oxford COVID-19 Vaccine Trial In India

Serum Institute of India has also been asked to submit to the DCGI's office details of medication used in accordance with the protocol for management of adverse events.

SII has partnered with AstraZeneca for manufacturing vaccine candidate for COVID-19 (Representational)

New Delhi:

Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) Dr VG Somani on Tuesday gave permission to Serum Institute of India to resume clinical trial of the Oxford COVID-19 vaccine candidate in the country while revoking its earlier order of suspending any new recruitment for phase two and three trial.

The DCGI, however, put certain conditions like taking extra care during screening, providing additional information in informed consent and close monitoring for adverse events during follow-up of the study which have to be "scrupulously" followed by Serum Institute of India (SII).

SII has also been asked to submit to the DCGI's office details of medication used in accordance with the protocol for management of adverse events.

The DCGI had on September 11 directed Serum Institute of India to suspend any new recruitment in the phase two and three clinical trial of the Oxford COVID-19 vaccine candidate till further orders in the backdrop of pharma giant AstraZeneca pausing the clinical trials in other countries because of "an unexplained illness" in a participant in the study.

On Saturday, British-Swedish biopharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford said clinical trials for their coronavirus vaccine have resumed in the UK after the Medicines Health Regulatory Authority's (MHRA) confirmed that the trials were safe.

SII, which has partnered with AstraZeneca for manufacturing the vaccine candidate for COVID-19, on Tuesday submitted the recommendations of the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB), UK and DSMB, India, and requested for permission to restart enrolment in the clinical trial.

According to Tuesday's order issued by DCGI, the DSMB, UK, recommended that the investigators recommence all immunization in their clinical trials subject to certain conditions.

DSMB, India, also has recommended to continue the study and enroll the remaining participants in the clinical trial as per protocol subject to certain conditions.

According to the order, SII has submitted revised participant information sheet, revised informed consent form and additional safety monitoring plan for the evolved participants.

The Pune-based firm has also submitted a summary of safety follow up of seven days post first vaccination, stating that no serious adverse events were experienced by any of the subjects till the date of the reporting, and the reported adverse events were stated to be mild, resolved on their own and did not have any sequale.

"In view of the above, I Dr V G Somani, Drugs Controller General of India, Central Licensing Authority, after careful examination of your reply and the recommendations of the DSMB in India and in UK revoke herewith the order dated September 11 issued under Rule 30 of the New Drugs and Clinical Trials Rules, 2019.

"You may recommence the clinical trial as recommended by DSMB, India, as per already approved protocol and the provisions laid down under the New Drugs and Clinical Trial Rules, 2019, subject to the conditions mentioned," the order said.

India Shreds Pakistan At UN: Their Prime Minister Admits Training Terrorists For Jammu And Kashmir

"Their PM Admits Training Terrorists For J&K": India Shreds Pak At UN

The diplomat said that it was not surprising that other relevant multilateral institutions have been raising serious concerns on Pakistan's failure to stop terror financing.

India also slammed Pakistan for abusing various HRC mechanisms (Representational)

Geneva:

India on Tuesday described Pakistan as an "epicenter of terrorism" and said no one deserves unsolicited lecture on human rights from Islamabad that has consistently persecuted its ethnic and religious minorities including Hindus, Sikhs and Christians.

Exercising the Right of Reply to the statements made by Pakistan at the 45th session of Human Rights Council (HRC), the Indian representative said that it has become habitual for Pakistan to malign India with false and fabricated narratives for its self-serving malicious purposes.

"Neither India nor others deserve this unsolicited lecture on human rights from a country that has consistently persecuted its ethnic and religious minorities, is an epicenter of terrorism, has the distinction of providing pensions to individuals on UN Sanctions list and has a Prime Minister who proudly admits training tens of thousands of terrorists to fight in Jammu and Kashmir," the Indian diplomat said.

The diplomat said that it was not surprising that other relevant multilateral institutions have been raising serious concerns on Pakistan's failure to stop terror financing and lack of effective actions against all terror entities in Pakistan.

Highlighting the nefarious designs of Pakistan in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, the diplomat said, "the mass influx of outsiders has whittled down the number of Kashmiris to an insignificant number in Pakistan occupied parts of Indian Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Laddakh."

"In its zeal to reassert its theocratic ideology, it has ensured that ethnic and religious minorities have no future through systematic persecution, blasphemy laws, forced conversions, targeted killings, sectarian violence and faith-based discrimination," the diplomat said.

"Thousands of Sikh, Hindus and Christian minority women and girls have been subjected to abductions, forced marriages and conversions in Pakistan."

On the plight of people in Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sindh, the Indian diplomat said, "Not a single day has gone by when a family in Balochistan doesn't find its members picked up or kidnapped by the security forces of Pakistan."

"Pakistan does well when it comes to intimidation and attacks against journalists, human rights defenders and political dissidents in particular by its state machinery. It is not without a reason that Pakistan has been highlighted by international organizations as a country where journalists are slain and their killers go scot free," the diplomat said.

India also slammed Pakistan for "abusing various HRC mechanisms and platforms for raising issues, which are extraneous to the mandate of the HRC and which relate to internal affairs of India, with a view to distract the attention of the international community from serious human rights violations committed by it against its own people, including in Indian territories occupied by it."

India also rejected the reference made by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to Jammu and Kashmir, which is an integral part of India.

"The OIC has no locus standi to comment on internal affairs of India. The OIC has allowed itself to be misused by Pakistan to subverse its own Agenda. It's for the members of the OIC to decide if it is in their interests to allow Pakistan to do so," the Indian representative said.

India also advised Turkey to refrain from commenting on its internal affairs and develop a better understanding of the democratic practices.

CONS
Glass at the back catches scratches easily
Camera Auto Modes restrict aspect ratio and megapixels
For a 5-inch screen, the phone is too tall, Sony could reduce the space at the top and bottom beyond the display area to make the unit more compact.

Verdict

This is essentially the Xperia Z's form factor, with the power of the Xperia Z Ultra. Simply put, the successor to the Xperia Z is on paper the most powerful smartphone available in India. It carries on with almost the same design tone, the water and dust resistance capabilities, but improves on the display, battery life and to a certain extent, the camera as well. It does cost a lot of money, which may make the potential customer think about the investment.

Sony Xperia Z1 detailed review

The Sony Xperia Z1 is pretty much Sony telling its rivals that they will not be left behind in the flagship smartphone battle. In fact, it has pretty much taken over the smartphone spec sheets with the adoption of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processors, which the likes of HTC haven’t, yet. And, yes, it also towers over its competition when it comes to price.

Build & Design: More of the same
We had said this when we reviewed the Xperia Z Ultra, and we will say this again - the Z1 carries forward the design theme that started with the Xperia Z. You have the slab-like design, with the glass at the back. The water and dust resistance ratings mean the ports and slots get the similar looking flap covers. It's still fairly slim, at just under 9mm, but the glass and the metal frame adds to the weight, tipping the scales at 170g.

This is still a pretty big phone. Sony now has settled on a design accent, that seems to be consistent across all new Xperia flagships.

Up front is the 5-inch display, but nothing else to distract you because the usual touch sensitive controls are integrated into the UI itself. The left side spine of the Z1 has the dock connector and the covered slots for the memory card and the micro USB port for charging. There is the dock connector as well. The right side spine has the SIM card slot, with the helpful tray to slot it in. And also the volume rocker, the shutter button and the attention grabbing power key. Speaking of the dock for a second, you might consider getting one, if you believe that opening and closing the charging port flap on a daily basis will do it no good. Also, if you are taking this phone in the pool with you, and your earphones are water-proof, the Z1 will have absolutely no issues - the 3.5mm headphone jack is also waterproof internally.

The water and dust resistance ratings continue as is. The flaps protect the water from seeping in. Even the 3.5mm headphone jack, which doesn't have a flap cover, is internally sealed away.

While the dimensions of the Z1 are much more in control when compared to the Z Ultra, the phone still retains the slippery nature of its predecessors, thanks to the glass at the back. It's interesting to note that the Z1 has a slightly bigger footprint than the Xperia Z, but that can be attributed to Sony packing in a bigger battery and the better camera hardware. But, because it is slippery and doesn’t grip very well, you will need to hold this carefully when attempting to use it with the same hand.

While such a design has its issues, there is no doubt that the straight lines and flat surfaces on the Xperia Z1 look stunning and very different from what the other flagships offer. The phone is built well, no disappointments in the terms of how it has been put together and the quality of materials used. But surely, the entire package could have been designed in a way so that it was also easier (and safer) to hold.

Display: Building on the good stuff
The Xperia Z was one of the first phones to sport a Full HD display, and the Z1 builds on that. The Triluminos technology makes this display a very good one to watch movies on, because the colours are much more vibrant and the details have improved as well. Not surprisingly, text rendering has seen an improvement as well, which is something we are very thankful about. The X-Reality engine boosts colour and sharpness, and while it does slightly increase the battery consumption, we found that it does make a huge difference while browsing through pictures.

The video playback experience on the Xperia Z1 is miles ahead of the Xperia Z, with the Triluminos technology ensuring that the colours are a lot richer now.

But for a natively bright display, the reflective glass above the screen does sort of complicate matters. Visibility in sunlight will be compromised if you don’t have the auto-brightness setting turned on, and even group viewing of a picture will not be ideal, because the people sitting at the sides will be treated to reflections most of the time.

Performance: Blazing fast
After spending ages lagging behind, it is good to see Sony finally giving importance to the specs powering their phones, with the Xperia Z1 packing in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor and 2GB of RAM. The Xperia Z Ultra has the same specs, and was comfortably ahead of the likes of the HTC One and the Samsung Galaxy S4 in the benchmark test scores. The Z1 Ultra’s performance, therefore, isn’t surprising.

The specs translate brilliantly into the real world usage performance scenario, with apps opening instantaneously, and the background app load not bothering us one bit. As a primary smartphone, its interesting to note that the Z1 never felt sluggish, something that even the HTC One could not completely claim because every once in a blue moon, it also had that moment of sluggishness craving for a restart. Tap on the Real Racing app on both phones at the same time, the Z Ultra wins the race by a couple of seconds. Even within the app, race loading times are lesser. All in all, be it serious work or some fun gaming, the Z Ultra handles both with such comfort that it borders on arrogance.

However, for a phone that packs in so much power, there is the inevitable heating issue. Use the camera to take around 10-12 shots, or the web browser for 5 minutes and the back heats up considerably, particularly just above the Sony logo and slightly to the left of it. For anyone considering packing this inside a case or a skin, that really wouldn’t be the best idea. Also, the Z Ultra did not heat up this much, under the same usage pattern, just for reference’s sake.

Battery life from the massive 3000mAh pack is quite good. With the Stamina Mode turned on, this one lasted me from 8am full charge one day till 3:30pm the next day, as a primary phone with calls, mails, messages and IM. Throughout, the brightness was set at around 40%. Stamina Mode allows you to set which applications can use the data connectivity when the phone is in stand-by mode. For example, if I only want the Gmail client and Facebook to refresh and not have the other apps doing the rigmarole, it allows for that.

Camera: Has its good points
Using the camera on the Xperia Z1 is a rather simple experience, pretty much the traditional methods of either accessing it via the icon on-screen, or long pressing the shutter button. The UI, once you open the camera, is pretty similar to the Xperia flagships of the recent past - three buttons on top, from where you can select the settings for the camera and which mode you want to shoot in. In addition to the plethora of auto modes, the manual mode offers some sense of flexibility to serious photographers. Without doubt, the Superior Auto mode will be the most commonly used , but this does come with a rather serious drawback - the aspect ratio is locked to 16:9 and the maximum image resolution is set at 8 megapixels. We looked everywhere for an option to change the resolution back to 20 megapixels, but no luck. The only way to get maximum resolution out of the Xperia Z1 is by switching the shooting mode to Manual, something many users may not be comfortable with. This pretty much does away with the “take out of the pocket and shoot” experience, for someone who is paying for the 20MP goodness.

The manual mode continues with the confusion, because it does not let you set the aperture or shutter-speed. What you can tweak are the white balance settings, exposure compensation and the ISO. You can tap to focus, and also tap to shoot, and the menu options provide for the flexibility of either/or, or even both.

The Sony Xperia Z1, when shooting at 8 megapixels, in Superior Auto mode, tends to capture far less details and the overall image quality suffers when compared to the 20 megapixel counterpart. We believe this is because the Z1 is capturing the image at a full 20 megapixel, but then proceeds to down-sample it to 8 megapixels, which has a negative impact on the detailing.

To buy or not to buy: A flagship that’ll show the way for the next wave
Clearly, spending so much money on a smartphone is no easy decision. But, when one has to be made, it just needs to be the smartest one possible. Today, the Xperia Z1 is the sensible choice, if this is what your budget allows. You can consider the HTC One and the Galaxy S4, but for the fans of pure performance, the Z1 is the most attractive proposition. With a screen this big, there will always be issues with the single hand operations and the form factor footprint. But, we're happy to note that the experience is enhanced by the better display and a camera that is fairly competent.

Zara Owner Inditex Returns To Profit In Second Quarter

Fashion retailer Inditex, owner of Zara, returned to quarterly profit in the three months from May to July but reported sales down 31% on the yearago period as viruswary consumers stayed away from city centre shopping districts.

Last Updated: September 16, 2020, 12:03 PM IST

MADRID: Fashion retailer Inditex, owner of Zara, returned to quarterly profit in the three months from May to July but reported sales down 31% on the year-ago period as virus-wary consumers stayed away from city centre shopping districts.

The owner of Massimo Dutti and Bershka said 98% of its stores were open again. Looking to the new financial period, it said sales in store and online were 11% lower at constant exchange rates from Aug. 1 to Sept. 6 from the year-ago period.

Shares closed 5% higher on Tuesday after Swedish rival H&M beat quarterly profit forecasts as it bounced back faster than expected from the pandemic-induced slump. Inditex’s stock has fallen 24% in the year so far.
