Following the vision of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a Fit India, the VSI organised the WALKATHON with an aim to bring the national focus on promoting healthcare, awareness, and timely interventions to prevent conditions that could lead to lower limb amputations (diabetes, smoking, hypertension and high cholesterol).

THE AGENDA FOR TIGER CONSERVATION IS URGENT. “TIGER BONDS” IS THE WAY FORWARD, says Mr. Praveen Garg, President of Mobius Foundation and Former Special Secretary of MOEF&CC

THE AGENDA FOR TIGER CONSERVATION IS URGENT. “TIGER BONDS” IS THE WAY FORWARD, says Mr. Praveen Garg, President of Mobius Foundation and Former Special Secretary of MOEF&CC

Project Tiger, initiated in 1973, has been instrumental in safeguarding the endangered tiger population in India. The project, launched by the Government of India in collaboration with various stakeholders, has made significant strides in tiger conservation over the years. However, the challenges faced by tiger populations continue to persist, necessitating the urgent need for additional funding and innovative approaches to ensure their survival.

Tigers play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity. Their presence in the wild indicates the health and robustness of our ecosystems. Unfortunately, tiger populations face numerous threats such as habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflicts. To address these challenges effectively, it is imperative to secure sustainable and adequate funding for tiger conservation initiatives.

To this end, the Mobius Foundation had organised a panel discussion “Tiger Talk: A Roaring Dialogue on Tiger Conservation” 04th August, Friday, 6:00 PM -8:00 PM: Bikaner House, New Delhi, to delve into innovative ideas for financing tiger conservation and emphasize the critical need for such solutions. Esteemed experts from various fields, including conservationists, financial experts, and policymakers gathered to exchange insights, share success stories, and brainstormed creative financing mechanisms to support tiger conservation efforts. Mr. Pradip Burman, Chairman of the Mobius Foundation, delivered the introductory remarks to the distinguished guests and spoke of the importance of viewing tiger landscapes as an incredible array of biodiversity.

Chief Guest at the event was Shri. M K Ranjitsinh, IAS (Retd) Former Addl. Secretary MoEF&CC, Author, Conservationist, Prime Architect of the Wildlife (Protection) Act. He said “If given the chance, animals have the incredible ability to make a comeback. Providing them with a suitable environment is crucial to their survival and prosperity.”

“To preserve the tiger population, we must take action. Poaching poses the biggest threat to these majestic animals as their skin and body parts are in high demand on the global market. The second threat is the loss of their natural habitat due to urban development and lifestyle changes.” – Dr. S.P Yadav, ADG Forest (Project Tiger) & Member Secretary (National Tiger Conservation Authority), MoEF&CC

Dr. Sejal Worah, Program Director, WWF India emphasized, “In order for the conversation with tigers to continue and infrastructure development to occur simultaneously, we need to seek for strategies to address the conflict between humans and tigers in the future. The only answer is the intelligent infrastructure that supports ecosystem balance.”

Shri. Praveen Garg, President of Mobius Foundation and Former Special Secretary in MOEF&CC, advocated for and developed the concept of “TIGER BONDS,” or the use of bond markets to supplement fund flows to protected areas. The so-called ‘Tiger Bonds’ can be used to raise conservation funds, which can be obtained through government-issued green bonds or private sector participation, and then handed to India’s national parks, supporting the state in animal protection.

The event acted as a forum for collaboration and the exploration of potential collaborations among conservation organisations, financial institutions, and governmental entities. Mobius Foundation intended to build synergy and establish real methods to successfully mobilise funding for tiger conservation by bringing together diverse stakeholders.

Ms. Jessica Gill, Sr. Research Associate, Mobius Foundation, concluded the presentation with a ‘Vote of Thanks’ and emphasised the importance of improved transboundary collaboration for tiger conservation as well as stiffer penalties for poaching and illicit wildlife trade.

Ranveer Singh Opens Up About Deepika Padukone Cheering and Whistling During Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani!

Ranveer Singh is winning hearts with his portrayal of the Punjabi fitness enthusiast, Rocky Randhawa, in Karan Johar’s latest film ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.’ The movie’s success meet was held in Mumbai last Thursday, where Ranveer shared some heartwarming insights into how his actor-wife, Deepika Padukone, reacted after watching the film last Saturday.

During the media interaction event celebrating the film’s success, Ranveer couldn’t contain his joy as he revealed Deepika’s response to the movie. He said, “She loved it, actually. It was one of the most memorable and fulfilling movie-watching experiences of my life. I took her on a Saturday night to watch the film. It was just the two of us sitting in the last row, and I had seen the film already, so I was really just there for her reaction. She was just laughing, she was crying, she was clapping, whistling, and often turning to me and saying ‘awwww.’ So yeah, I had the best experience sitting with her watching. She is very proud of me, and I am happy with that.”

Ranveer’s excitement for the film spilled over to his social media, where he shared a delightful video on Sunday. The clip featured both Ranveer and Deepika dancing to the popular dance number “What Jhumka” from the film. After dancing together, Ranveer playfully persuaded Deepika to mimic his character, Rocky, and the video ended with Deepika’s infectious laughter. Ranveer captioned the post, “She LLLLLLLOVED it! @deepikapadukone #RockyAurRaniKiiPremKahaani.”

Earlier, at the music launch of the film, Ranveer had expressed Deepika’s excitement to watch the movie. He said, “Deepika is really excited and is looking forward to seeing the movie. She loved the trailer, and she understands what it means to me to be in Karan Johar’s directorial as a lead. It is a big deal. He is one of the eminent filmmakers of our country. She knows that it means a lot to me, and she is very excited for me. She is very excited to see this performance. She keeps singing the songs around the house. I cannot wait for her to see the film and know what she thinks about it.”

Apart from Ranveer, the film features a star-studded cast, including Alia Bhatt, Shabana Azmi, Dharmendra, and Jaya Bachchan. With its captivating storyline and brilliant performances, ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’ has already crossed ₹70 crore at the domestic box office since its release on July 28, making it a resounding success.

Schengen Visa Rejections Cost Indian Travelers a Fortune in 2022

Schengen Visa Rejections Cost Indian Travelers a Fortune in 2022

Traveling to Europe can be a dream come true for many Indian travelers. The allure of exploring historic cities, experiencing diverse cultures, and witnessing breath-taking landscapes is undoubtedly enticing. All this and much more attract millions from India. However, when it comes to obtaining a Schengen Visa, the journey can become a little overwhelming because of the possibility of visa rejections.

In this article, we will delve into “Schengen Visa Rejections Cost Indian Travelers a Fortune” and explore the impact of visa denials on travelers. Additionally, we will provide valuable insights into securing cheap flight tickets to Europe while ensuring a smooth visa application process.

Understanding Schengen Visa Rejections

The Schengen Visa allows travelers to visit 26 European countries without requiring individual visas for each country. While the visa application process needs to be straightforward, many Indian travelers face the unfortunate reality of visa rejections. The Schengen authorities have been strict and rejected applications for even small reasons. Several factors contribute to these rejections, such as incomplete documentation, insufficient financial proof, and a lack of travel itineraries.

The Impact on Indian Travelers

Schengen Visa rejections can be disheartening and financially draining for Indian travelers. Apart from the wasted application fees, one might incur additional costs associated with reapplying for a Schengen Visa. Moreover, the disappointment of canceled travel plans and missed opportunities can take an emotional toll.

The Cost of Schengen Visa Rejections

In 2022, Schengen Visa rejections will cost Indian travelers nearly Rs. 90 crore, according to a report by LiveMint. This staggering amount represents the collective losses incurred by travelers due to unsuccessful visa applications. Other factors contributing to this financial load are the costs of rebooking flights, accommodations, and other travel arrangements.

Exploring Affordable Alternatives

For Indian travelers seeking to explore Europe on a budget, there are alternative destinations outside the Schengen zone. You may explore them for incredible experiences. Countries like Croatia, Romania, and Bulgaria boast stunning landscapes, rich histories, and vibrant cultures while being more visa-friendly.

Tips to Increase Schengen Visa Approval Chances

To improve the likelihood of a successful Schengen Visa application, consider the following tips:

  • Thoroughly review and complete all required documents.
  • Provide clear and concise travel itineraries and the purpose of the visit. ● Demonstrate sufficient financial stability.
  • Show strong ties to India, such as employment, property, or family commitments. Navigating the Visa Application Process

The Schengen Visa application process can be overwhelming, but understanding the step-by-step procedure can make it more manageable. From gathering the necessary documents to attending the visa interview, each stage requires careful attention to detail.

Unraveling the World of Cheap Flight Tickets to Europe

Booking cheap flight tickets to Europe is a priority for every budget-conscious traveler. Numerous online platforms, including Akbar Travels, offer flight deals, visa application services, discounts, and special offers for those flying to Europe. Finding the best deals requires thorough research and flexibility in travel dates.

How to Find the Best Flight Deals

Consider these strategies to secure cheap flight tickets to Europe:

  • Use flight comparison websites to compare prices across multiple airlines.
  • Be flexible with travel dates and consider mid-week flights.
  • Subscribe to airline newsletters for exclusive deals and promotions.

Making the Most of Your European Adventure

After obtaining your Schengen Visa and booking your flight tickets, it is time to plan your European adventure wisely. Make the most of your trip by exploring offbeat destinations, trying local cuisine, and immersing yourself in the diverse cultures of Europe.

Conclusion

Securing a Schengen Visa and exploring Europe need not be a daunting and expensive experience for Indian travelers. By understanding the reasons behind visa rejections and following the right strategies, travelers can increase their chances of visa approval. Additionally, exploring alternative destinations and finding affordable flight tickets can make the dream of European travel a reality.

If you are planning a trip to Schengen countries, it is advisable to apply for a Schengen visa through a trusted travel agent (akbartravels.com) to avoid the chances of rejection.

MALHOTRA GROUP PLC EXPANDS ITS OPERATION IN INDIA WITH GOLF COURSE PURCHASE

MALHOTRA GROUP PLC EXPANDS ITS OPERATION IN INDIA WITH GOLF COURSE PURCHASE

LEADING developer, Malhotra Group PLC, has announced is has successfully completed the purchase of The Imperial Golf Estate in Ludhiana, Punjab, India following four years of negotiations.

The development, which includes an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus company, Nicklaus Design, was halted in 2019 after the previous owners ran into financial difficulty.

The development is now firmly back on track having been acquired by Malhotra Realty Private Ltd India (MRPL), a Malhotra Family Holding Company.

The UK- based company, which has property, care home and leisure interests across the country, is headed by Chairman, Meenu Malhotra who has always wanted to create a legacy in his home town of Ludhiana, Punjab, India.

“This project will not only create opportunities for local people but also provide world class facilities, enhancing the reputation of  the already affluent town of Ludhiana and placing it on the world map,” said Mr Malhotra.

Together with the championship golf course, the project will see the creation of more than 700 villas and apartments, an upscale shopping mall with national and international designer outlets and fashionable food and beverage offerings.

A destination health farm with spa facilities and a luxury five-star hotel will be created with other, yet to be announced, prestigious partners.

An international school (junior and senior) in collaboration with prominent educational institutions based in the United Kingdom is also planned, along with places of worship and a creche for residents and families.

The development is expected to draw travellers from throughout India, which will assist in creating local job opportunities and boost the economy for the state of Punjab.

MRPL is looking forward to working closely with administration officials in Ludhiana and the Punjab Government in laying the much-needed infrastructure to make this project successful.

It has already applied to have all the relevant licences and consents renewed so work can commence on site immediately, in anticipation that Phase 1 will be complete within two years.

“We have been working for the past four years on bringing this project together which was held up because of legal hurdles.  We would like to thank our advisor, Anshul Jain of PwC New Dehli who assisted us through the regulatory processes,” added the CEO.

The company is in the process of recruiting an international architect, and the design and aesthetics will be led by the famous local architect Zafar Choudhry of Habitat Architects in Ludhiana.

With the new road infrastructure laid swiftly by the Government of India, Imperial Golf Estate will be serviced by four airports, including the new Ludhiana Airport, Chandigarh Airport, Amritsar Airport and New Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport, with plans for a helipad in the future.

With the additional promise of high speed connectivity, MRPL is confident the golf estate and all the planned facilities will draw players and visitors from across the globe as well as catering for the increased interest in golf across India.

Mr Malhotra believes that “the project will make a huge positive economic impact on the area and create thousands of jobs for local people and companies,”

“I have always been a patriotic Indian, proud Punjabi and my home town of Ludhiana remains very close to my heart,” he added.

This is the second major project to be undertaken by MRPL.  Last year it announced The Wilton, a major 2,000,000 sq ft city centre project, consisting of a shopping mall, hotel, cinema complex and 600 fashionable residencies off Canal Road, Ludhiana which is already under development.

Meenu sees this latest move as part of a continuing commitment to the company’s overseas development plans.

“We are global investors with a proven track record of development in the UK.  We see India as a vibrant economy which we wish to invest in,” he said.

“India is the fastest growing economy in the world.  The Government of India’s intention is to become the third largest economy in the world in the next decade by investing in infrastructure and housing, as well as other sectors.

“We are proud to invest in India to be part of that growth story and will continue to invest in India to assist in making this vision a reality.   We expect to announce further developments in due course.”
