#JAMMU: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today inaugurated a newly constructed block of residential flats at Muthi, marking a major step towards strengthening the Government’s housing infrastructure for its employees.

The Chief Minister formally opened the facility by cutting the ceremonial ribbon.

Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Kumar Choudhary, Advisor to the Chief Minister Nasir Aslam Wani, Additional Chief Secretary to the CM Dheeraj Gupta, Director General Estates Tariq Hussain Ganai, Deputy Director Estates Jammu Dr. Vikas Sharma, and other senior officers were present on the occasion.

The new block at Muthi comprises 28 one-room residential flats built as a Ground + 6 floors structure. Each compact unit includes a bedroom, lobby/living area, kitchen, and washroom—designed to efficiently meet the residential needs of employees while ensuring cost-effectiveness and optimal space utilization.

The Chief Minister inspected various flats, appreciated their aesthetics, and expressed satisfaction over the space management evident in the construction. He hoped that the project would help in addressing the accommodation requirements of government employees.

During the briefing, DG Estates Tariq Hussain Ganai informed the Chief Minister that the project has been executed with a strong focus on functional design, structural safety, and affordability. He added that the department is undertaking a comprehensive plan to modernize old residential colonies in a phased manner.

DD Estates Jammu Dr. Vikas Sharma briefed the Chief Minister on the layout, amenities, and ongoing supervision mechanisms put in place to ensure quality control and timely completion of upcoming housing units.

Speaking on the occasion, the Chief Minister reaffirmed the Government’s commitment to strengthening residential infrastructure and ensuring access to safe, secure, and well-planned housing for employees.

“Our aim is to bridge the gap in government accommodation by creating modern, sleek and employee-friendly residential spaces across Jammu and Kashmir,” he said.

The Chief Minister later inspected the ongoing construction of 56 two-room residential flats—28 each at Ahata Amar Singh and Sarwal. These Ground + 6 floor structures include two bedrooms, a lobby/living area, kitchen, and two washrooms, designed to meet the needs of employees with families. The projects are scheduled for completion in December 2025.

He directed the officers to ensure optimal use of available land, maintain high aesthetic standards quality in construction and phase out old and unsafe quarters to make way for new and improved residential facilities.

The Chief Minister observed that the combined 84 residential units coming up at Muthi, Ahata Amar Singh, and Sarwal will substantially reduce the shortage of government accommodation. He emphasized that these initiatives aim to close the existing housing gap, provide employees with modern and better living environment, and promote fair and equitable allocation of residential facilities across different employee categories.

TyTil Revolutionizes Indian Real Estate with Customer-First Approach

0

The Indian real estate sector is witnessing a digital transformation with TyTil, a rising property-tech platform that is rapidly changing the way property transactions and related services are carried out. With a focus on transparency, accessibility, and end-to-end support, TyTil is emerging as a one-stop destination for homebuyers, sellers, and service seekers.

Unlike traditional property portals, TyTil blends advanced digital tools with human expertise, offering solutions tailored to the needs of both first-time buyers and seasoned investors.

“Our goal is to simplify the real estate journey for every Indian. Whether it’s buying a first home, finding commercial space, or redesigning a property, TyTil ensures the right guidance, verified listings, and trusted professionals,” said a spokesperson for the company.

Services that Stand Out

  • TyTil’s platform goes beyond property listings, providing:
  • Verified residential and commercial properties
  • Free listing options for owners
  • Interior design and home improvement solutions
  • Architectural and Vastu consultation
  • Real-time real estate insights and guidance

By integrating a community-driven ecosystem, the platform also connects users with certified agents, designers, and contractors, creating a seamless and reliable property experience.

Tackling Industry Challenges

In a sector often plagued by misinformation and middlemen, TyTil positions itself as a transparent and trustworthy alternative. Every listing undergoes strict verification, while the platform’s intuitive design ensures that even non-tech-savvy users can navigate it with ease.

Expansion Plans

With growing user adoption and strategic partnerships, TyTil is set to expand its presence in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, aiming to democratize real estate access across both urban and rural India.

“Real estate should not be a privilege – it should be accessible, fair, and easy. That’s the future we’re building at TyTil,” the spokesperson added.

J&K receives 200 electric buses under PM-eBus Sewa Scheme: Centre

0

#JAMMU: J$K has been allocated a total of 200 electric buses under the PM-eBus Sewa Scheme, as part of the government’s plan to modernize and expand urban transport services across the country.

The data was provided in response to a question raised in the Lok Sabha, which was answered by Tokhan Sahu, MoS in the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.

The PM-eBus Sewa Scheme, launched on August 16, 2023, aims to deploy 10 thousand electric buses nationwide to enhance city bus services through a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.

This will not only help reduce carbon emissions but also contribute to the growing demand for sustainable urban transportation.

The 200 buses allocated to Jammu & Kashmir will be part of the larger initiative to improve public transport systems, and they will be operational once the associated infrastructure, such as depots and charging stations, is ready.

These buses are expected to be deployed soon, once the groundwork related to the Behind-the-Meter (BTM) power infrastructure and grid integration readiness is completed. In a significant move towards promoting electric mobility, the central government has approved 100% central assistance for the BTM infrastructure required for the depots where these buses will be stationed.

This initiative forms part of the broader strategy to modernize the state’s transportation system, particularly to reduce air pollution and enhance the efficiency of public transport.

The scheme includes not just buses but also the necessary charging infrastructure and depot readiness, for which city authorities in J&K are working closely with distribution companies (DISCOMs).

Helicopter Services Cancelled for #AmarnathYatra 2025 Amid Heightened Security

0

#SRINAGAR: In a major development ahead of the annual #Amarnath Yatra, the #Jammu and #Kashmir government has suspended all #helicopter services for the pilgrimage season starting July 3, 2025. This comes after authorities declared the entire yatra route a No-Fly Zone in light of increased security concerns following the recent terror attack in #Pahalgam.

According to official sources, the decision prohibits all forms of aerial activity, including drones, helicopters, and even balloons, between July 1 and August 10, 2025. This means thousands of pilgrims who usually opt for #helicopter rides from #Neelgrath or #Pahalgam to #Panjtarni will have to rely on road treks, ponies, or palkis to reach the holy cave shrine of Lord Shiva.

The Shri Amarnath Shrine Board (#SASB) has urged pilgrims to make alternate arrangements and stated that refunds for pre-booked helicopter tickets will be issued through authorized booking portals.

Security agencies have stepped up ground surveillance and deployed additional personnel along the traditional #Baltal and Pahalgam routes to ensure the safety of yatris.

The Amarnath Yatra 2025 is scheduled to run from July 3 to August 9.
