SC flags highway encroachments; asks NHAI to install cameras at toll plazas
The Supreme Court on Thursday flagged the issue of encroachment and stationary vehicles on highways and asked the National Highways Authority of India why it cannot install a camera surveillance system and monitoring rooms across toll plazas to deal with it. A bench of Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta, which was hearing a suo motu case related to an accident in Rajasthan's Phalodi area that claimed 15 lives, said that encroachment and stationary vehicles on highways were the two major issues. The counsel appearing for the NHAI said they have issued circulars for regular inspection and patrolling to check unauthorised parking on the highways. Why can't you think of having a camera surveillance system? You can have monitoring rooms at all toll plazas, the bench said.

BCA Chief Executive Officer Snehal: Batting all-rounder Deepak Hooda is set to play again for his home state, Baroda, in the ongoing domestic season, five years after leaving the team following a feud with skipper Krunal Pandya, a left-arm spin-bowling all-rounder. Hooda, 31, had left Baroda and moved to Rajasthan after being suspended by the Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) for indiscipline, following a storm-out from the team hotel and bio-bubble on the eve of Barodas first game in the 2021 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, during which he alleged verbal abuse and bullying by Pandya in a practice session.

Highlights: Jaggard said Mumbai's Taj Palace delivered a five-star experience comparable with hotels he has experienced in Dubai and the UK. He felt Karachi's Pearl Continental fell considerably short of the Indian hotel standard he had experienced. British restraint, Indian warmth and South Asian hospitality traditions are different expressions of luxury, not necessarily competing versions of the same thing. Architecture, history, food and local traditions can be as important to a luxury stay as room size, service and facilities. A hotel can be world-class without behaving like a London hotel, thankfully, because otherwise there would be very little point in travelling. Travel vlogger Harry Jaggard has offered his verdict on luxury hotels in India and Pakistan, and, unsurprisingly, the internet has something to say about it. Speaking on a Holafy podcast, Jaggard recalled staying at Mumbai's Taj Palace and Karachi's Pearl Continental. His conclusion was fairly blunt: the Indian property, he said, felt like a genuine five-star hotel, comparable with the luxury he has experienced in Dubai and the UK. Pakistan's Pearl Continental, by comparison, apparently did not make the cut. Jaggard said the Karachi hotel was owhere near the standard of the Indian hotels he had experienced. He went further, suggesting that while an Indian five-star hotel feels like a five-star property in Dubai or Britain, a Pakistani or Bangladeshi five-star hotel can feel more like a four-star or even three-star establishment. Quite the hotel report card. He also praised India's economic growth and rising affluent and middle-class population, arguing that the country's expanding wealth is increasingly reflected in its luxury hospitality sector. But there is a rather large problem with this comparison: why are we assuming a British hotel is the universal measuring tape for luxury in the first place? See on Instagram Britain does hotels. India does hospitality. A luxury hotel in Britain often prides itself on being discreet. Staff are polished, the interiors are restrained and the service is designed to make everything feel effortless. In other words, if you barely notice anything happening, the hotel is probably doing its job. India tends to take a somewhat different approach. Here, hospitality can be deliberately visible. Guests may be welcomed with flowers, traditional rituals, a cup of chai or a staff member who remembers where they travelled from. The property may smell of incense, serve regional dishes and incorporate centuries-old architectural traditions. That is not a failed attempt at British luxury. It is Indian luxury. And judging it by whether it behaves like a London hotel rather misses the point. You cannot remove culture from hospitality Take a heritage hotel in Rajasthan. Its courtyards, carved stonework, frescoes and palace architecture are not simply expensive decoration. They are part of the story of the place. A luxury property in Kerala may draw on local architecture, waterways and cuisine. A hotel in Mumbai can exist within the city's colonial, commercial and cinematic history. Then there is the Taj Palace in Mumbai, the property Jaggard praised. Its appeal is not merely the size of its rooms or the polish of its service. It carries history including the devastating 2008 terrorist attacks and the hotel's subsequent reopening and restoration. That cultural and historical context cannot be recreated by installing another marble bathroom and putting a five-star plaque outside. And then there is food British luxury hotels can certainly do food brilliantly. But Indian hospitality has an unfairly enormous culinary advantage: India has an extraordinary number of regional food traditions packed into one country. A hotel breakfast can move from dosas and idlis to parathas, poha and regional sweets before the croissant has even had time to become fashionable. Dinner might mean Goan seafood, Punjabi dishes, Hyderabadi biryani or South Indian specialities sometimes under the same roof. Calling this etter than British food would be just as simplistic as calling it worse. It is simply different . And that difference is precisely what makes travel interesting. The same five-star badge does not mean the same experience There is, of course, a legitimate point behind Jaggard's comments. Luxury standards matter. Cleanliness, service, maintenance, food quality, room standards and consistency can be assessed objectively. Some hotels in India, Pakistan, Britain and elsewhere will simply provide better service than others. But a hotel's star rating does not erase geography. A five-star hotel in London is operating within one cultural tradition. A five-star hotel in Mumbai is operating within another. A palace hotel in Rajasthan, meanwhile, can offer something that neither can reproduce: a sense of place that is inseparable from its surroundings. Trying to rank them all as though they are competing entries in Britain's Got Hotels is rather missing the point. iStock The more interesting question Instead of asking whether Indian or Pakistani hotels are as good as British ones, perhaps the better question is what each destination does with luxury. Britain has perfected discretion, consistency and polished service. India can offer grandeur, warmth, food, history and extraordinary cultural immersion. Pakistan has its own architectural traditions, hospitality culture and heritage properties that deserve to be judged on their own merits rather than simply against a British benchmark. Jaggard's experience is valid. His preference is valid too. But perhaps the five-star hotel industry does not need a single winner. After all, if every luxury hotel in the world tried to feel like a British hotel, travelling would become rather boring.

Young South African: Young South African fast bowler Kwena Maphaka said he is ready to step up and lead the national pace bowling attack in the upcoming Test series against Australia if injured spearhead Kagiso Rabada fails to recover in time. Maphaka has played only two Tests and could take on a prominent role during a packed international schedule featuring eight Tests, 12 ODIs, and multiple Twenty20 matches. Rabada was ruled out of the ODI series against Australia after injuring his right hamstring in training. Cricket South Africa (CSA) confirmed that a decision on his Test availability will be made closer to the series opener on October 9. I've had a good start and I'm just looking to continue that momentum into the summer. I think I'll be able to do the job if I'm asked to do so. I really hope that KG (Rabada) is back in time. But if that doesn't happen, it's one of those things where somebody has to step up, and if that's me, I'm really confident in my abilities. I've led a bowling attack before with the Lions, with South Africa under-19 and I've been in the Proteas for a little bit now. So yeah, I'm really confident in my abilities, Maphaka was quoted as saying by Cricinfo. The youngster also spent the off-season working closely with national bowling coach Piet Botha and former South Africa fast bowler Allan Donald to refine his red-ball technique and build consistency, after spending IPL 2026 on the bench for Rajasthan Royals. After not playing in the IPL, I definitely just wanted to knuckle down, work on my game, leading into a massive summer. Coach Shuks (head coach Shukri Conrad) and I had a chat about skipping the leagues in the winter to have a bit of a rest and then do some work leading into a big summer. The biggest thing for me was really working on my consistency. I was decent in the T20 format, but there was a lot of work to do in the longer formats that would also help in T20s. We worked on a little bit of my run-up but the biggest thing was just consistency and making sure that I can hit an area as consistently as possible. I feel that I've done that so far, he added.

Chief Minister of Jharkhand Hemant Soren, Chief Minister of Bihar Samrat Choudhary, Union Minister for Jal Shakti C.R. Patil, the Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar, the Union Home Secretary, and senior officials from the Government of India and both states were present on this occasion. Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah said that todays agreement between Bihar and Jharkhand has resolved a long-awaited water dispute in eastern India. He said that this agreement will provide irrigation water to lakhs of farmers in large rural areas of Bihar and Jharkhand, along with drinking water for the people. Amit Shah stated that the agreement reached today regarding the sharing of the Sone River's waters is an excellent example of the 'Team Bharat' vision and cooperative federalism championed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said that while all states possess their own distinct identities, if they move forward as 'Team Bharat' within the national context, there is no problem which cannot be resolved. Shri Shah added that this marks the fourth water agreement between states this year, which will enhance water availability for irrigation, rural development, and drinking purposes. Union Home Minister said that the agreement reached today to resolve the nearly 25-year-old water dispute between Bihar and Jharkhand exemplifies that any problem can be solved through dialogue conducted with the spirit of cooperative federalism. He said that issues concerning vast geographical areas, farmers, rural regions, and drinking water supplies in both states have been permanently resolved today.

Moreover, water would become available for irrigation and drinking purposes in the Palamu, Garhwa, and other regions of Jharkhand. Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren and Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary expressed their gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for resolving the issue of Sone River water sharing. On the initiative of Home Minister Amit Shah, long-pending water disputes between various states that had been unresolved for several decades are being resolved through the Inter-State Council, so far this year, four historic agreements have been reached. On July 7, 2026, a historic agreement regarding the settlement of outstanding payments was signed among the 'Narmada Award' beneficiary states Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh in the presence of the Union Home Minister. This agreement marks a milestone in resolving long-standing disputes among these states concerning cost-sharing for the construction of the Sardar Sarovar Project, with the outstanding dues being resolved through a one-time settlement. On June 29, 2026, a significant agreement was signed between the governments of Rajasthan and Haryana regarding the construction and implementation of the Yamuna Water Project. Under this agreement, approximately 580 MCM of water will be conveyed from the Yamuna Canal to Rajasthan via three underground pipelines. The project aims to deliver Rajasthan's share of Yamuna water from the Western Yamuna Canal through these underground pipelines. This will enable Rajasthan to effectively utilize the water allocated to it under the 1994 agreement regarding the sharing of usable surface water in the Upper Yamuna Basin. The project will ensure a continuous supply of drinking water to the arid and low-rainfall regions of Rajasthan and foster socio-economic development, thereby benefiting millions of people. On June 16, 2026, a consensus was reached among the concerned states regarding the long-pending Kishau Multipurpose Dam Project during a crucial meeting held in New Delhi under the chairmanship of Union Home Minister Shri Amit Shah. During the meeting, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Rajasthan agreed to a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the implementation of the Kishau Multipurpose Project. Regarding the project, the Central Government will provide 90% of the funding for the water component as central assistance, while the six states will bear the financial burden of the remaining 10%. An agreement was reached to allocate the water assigned to Himachal Pradesh to Delhi and Rajasthan in exchange for sharing the cost of the project's power component.
