Centre reviews 7,800 km of highway projects across J&K, Ladakh, Telangana
Better connectivity to help tourists access lesser-known destinations Srinagar, Jun 29: The Centre has reviewed nearly 7,800 kilometres of national highway projects across J&K, Ladakh and Telangana as part of its efforts to improve road quality, safety and long-term infrastructure performance. The review is aimed at strengthening connectivity to key tourism destinations and supporting regional economic growth through better transport networks. Officials said the focus remains on maintaining high construction standards, ensuring the timelycompletion of projectsand improving the durability of road infrastructure. The initiative is expected to provide smoother travel experiences, reduce travel time and enhance road safety for both residents and visitors. In J&K, improved highways are likely to benefit major tourist destinations known for their scenic valleys, lakes, gardens and adventure tourism opportunities. Better road connectivity is expected to make travel more comfortable while also helping tourists access lesser known destinations that have traditionally faced transportation challenges. Ladakh, one of India's most popular road trip destinations, is also expected to benefit from stronger highway infrastructure. Reliable roads areconsideredessential for the region due to its high altitude terrain, remote locations and growing tourism sector. Officials believe improved road conditions will make journeys safer and more convenient for visitors travelling through mountain passes and remote settlements. The review also comes ahead of the monsoon season, when road networks in many parts of the country face weather related challenges. Authorities have directed agencies to strengthen preparedness measures, including improving drainage systems, stabilising vulnerable stretches, protecting slopes and ensuring rapid response mechanisms to deal with disruptions caused by heavy rainfall. Officials noted that modern engineering techniques and advanced construction practices are being adopted to improve the resilience of highway infrastructure. Stronger roads with better maintenance systems are expected to reduce disruptions and provide year round connectivity. The government said improved highway networks will play a key role in supporting tourism, local businesses and regional development. Better connectivity is expected to encourage longer road journeys, improve access to cultural and natural attractions and create new opportunities for communities that depend on tourism and transport-related economic activity. The ongoing highway upgrades reflect a broader effort to strengthen India's transport infrastructure while ensuring safer and more efficient travel across J&K, Ladakh and other regions.

How the Future of AI Infrastructure Could Shape Tomorrow's Opportunities
The technologies shaping tomorrow's economy will depend not only on physical infrastructure but also on skilled people, research and innovation Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping how people live, work and communicate. Every online search, digital payment, email, video call, cloud service and AI chatbot relies on an invisible digital infrastructure that most people never see. At the heart of this infrastructure are data centres, specialised facilities filled with powerful computers that process, store and deliver digital information. As AI systems become increasingly capable, these facilities require growing amounts of electricity, land and cooling. This rising demand has prompted scientists and engineers to explore an extraordinary question: could some of tomorrow's data centres one day operate in space? Although the idea sounds like science fiction, it has become a serious area of scientific research. Technology companies, universities and space agencies are studying whether orbital computing could eventually complement terrestrial data centres. Jeff Bezos has long argued that some heavy industries may ultimately move into space, while Elon Musk has spoken about the long-term potential of expanding computing capabilities beyond Earth. Google researchers have also examined the engineering challenges of operating AI computing hardware in space, including radiation exposure and long-term system reliability. Meanwhile, organisations such as NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) continue advancing research in spacecraft technologies, computing systems and future space infrastructure. International organisations, including the International Energy Agency (IEA), the World Economic Forum and UNESCO, have highlighted the growing importance of artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, rising energy demand and the responsible development of emerging technologies. Meanwhile, researchers such as Nicolas Longp and Yonggang Wen, together with leading universities including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Stanford University, Harvard University, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, the University of Toronto, the Technical University of Munich, the University of Tokyo, Tsinghua University and the Harbin Institute of Technology, are advancing research in artificial intelligence, advanced computing, robotics and space engineering that could contribute to future orbital computing systems. While the idea of orbital data centres is still under development, it offers valuable lessons for regions like Kashmir. The technologies shaping tomorrow's economy will depend not only on physical infrastructure but also on skilled people, research and innovation. Preparing young people for these emerging fields may prove far more important than predicting exactly where future computing facilities will be located. One of the principal reasons researchers are exploring orbital computing is energy. Modern AI systems consume enormous amounts of electricity. According to the International Energy Agency, electricity demand from data centres is rising steadily worldwide, placing increasing pressure on power generation, land availability and cooling infrastructure. As AI continues to expand, researchers are investigating new ways to improve efficiency while reducing environmental impacts. Recent engineering studies suggest that future solar-powered orbital computing platforms could potentially operate at the megawatt scale, although such concepts remain technically and economically challenging. From an engineering perspective, space offers both opportunities and challenges. Satellites in suitable orbits can generate solar power for long periods, and some specialised computing tasks could be carried out closer to where data are collected in space. However, these possible advantages come with major technical challenges that scientists and engineers still need to overcome. Cooling computers in space is much harder than on Earth because space is a vacuum, where heat cannot be carried away by air. Instead, spacecraft use specially designed radiators to release excess heat. NASA and the European Space Agency consider heat management one of the biggest engineering challenges in spacecraft design. These cooling systems make space-based computing platforms larger, heavier and more complex. Radiation is another major challenge. High-energy particles in space can damage computer chips, corrupt data and disrupt electronic systems. Researchers continue testing advanced computer hardware under simulated space conditions to understand how it performs in orbit. Their findings show that computers designed for space need much stronger protection than those used in conventional data centres. Reliability is equally important. On Earth, faulty servers can often be repaired or replaced within hours. In space, maintenance would be extremely expensive and technically demanding. Future orbital computing systems would therefore need to be highly reliable, equipped with backup systems, and capable of operating independently with minimal human intervention. Current research suggests that orbital data centres are more likely to complement rather than replace those on Earth. They could prove valuable for specialised applications such as processing satellite data, supporting deep-space missions and analysing information already generated in orbit. Every day, internet services, cloud computing and most AI applications are expected to continue relying primarily on terrestrial data centres for the foreseeable future. For Kashmir, the more important lesson is not where future data centres will be located, but why understanding emerging technologies will matter in an increasingly digital world. Tamil Nadu shows how long-term investment in research and infrastructure can help build a strong technology sector. It has become one of the country's leading data centre hubs, while Maharashtra, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh continue to attract major investments in cloud computing and AI infrastructure. Institutions such as the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) are carrying out important research in artificial intelligence, satellite technology, advanced computing and space science. Their work will help shape the country's technological future. Kashmir can learn from these developments. Universities and colleges can strengthen education in artificial intelligence, computer science, electronics, robotics, cybersecurity and space technology. Students can take part in research, innovation and entrepreneurship, while local startups can create digital solutions for agriculture, healthcare, tourism, disaster management, education and public services. These skills will remain valuable whether future technologies are developed on Earth or, one day, in space. The idea of data centres in space is about much more than satellites. It shows that every major technological breakthrough begins with curiosity, research, thorough testing and hard work. Kashmir's future in the age of AI will depend not on where future data centres are built, but on whether today's students become tomorrow's scientists, engineers, researchers and innovators. Technology will continue to change, but the greatest investment Kashmir can make is in its people. By investing in education, scientific thinking and innovation today, Kashmir can help create the technologies of the future instead of simply using them.

Telangana: RERA Acts Against Unregistered Project
The case was filed by Panuganti Satish Kumar, who said he agreed to buy a plot in January 2024 after paying an advance of 10 lakh: Reports
U23 Col CK Nayudu Trophy: In October 2025, Aman Rao was feeling stuck. A string of failures in the U23 Col CK Nayudu Trophy came after a promising start, and the young right-handed opener found himself searching for answers beyond his own dressing room. Cut to the present, and those times of struggle in October 2025 look as if they happened a long while back. Rao sits atop the Orange Cap standings in the Telangana T20 League (TGT20) with 192 runs in three innings, including striking the tournament's first century in only 32 balls, en route to smashing 142 off 48 deliveries for Warangal Warriors. It is that kind of innings that had the audience at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium feeling enthralled. That 142, remarkably, came in a losing cause, with Warangal Warriors going down in a thriller despite posting 258, as Tilak Varmas unbeaten 136 took Medak Falcons over the line. Rao barely had time to dwell on that astonishing innings coming off his willow before turning his attention to the Warriors' next match happening on Sunday. While I was playing, it was just like a flow state. I don't know what was happening. So, I was just reacting to the ball and playing it. Then, after it was done, I took some time to process what I had done that day, and then I had to play a match the day after. So, I had to leave that behind, also at the same time. So, I mean, it was a good feeling, but we lost, so not so great, he said in an exclusive conversation with IANS on Saturday. As Aman explained, his approach at the crease is built around clarity rather than recklessness. He looks to target deliveries in his strong zones and back himself to clear the ropes, a method that has fuelled his run of boundary-heavy scores this season, including a knock of 46 where every run came off boundaries only. But theres an innate sense of honesty when Rao speaks about where that intent occasionally overstepped its mark. He recalls straying into playing deliveries that were not really there to be hit, a lapse he intends to correct by sticking strictly to the balls within his zone going forward. Despite leading the Orange Cap race, Rao insisted the individual landmark is secondary to the team's ambitions. Yes, the Orange Cap is a good feeling, but I feel that if we win the tournament, it will be a cherry on top. So, I just don't think about it much, like I am on top of the Orange Cap or something. I just try to do what's best on that day, and hopefully, the results will come by, and the Orange Cap is a part of the process. Like, if we win, if I score, things will keep coming. So, that's not something I think about that much. I just think about how to perform on that day rather than try to sit on top of the leaderboard of the Orange Cap. It is a philosophy, he says, that keeps him grounded through a campaign that has otherwise thrust him into the spotlight. Long before TGT20, Rao had already announced himself on the bigger stage with an unbeaten 200 off 154 balls in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, against a Bengal attack featuring Mohammed Shami, Akash Deep, and Mukesh Kumar. Honestly, I didn't know I was close to 200. I was just playing and didn't know the score till the last ball. I think they shouted from outside that I needed six runs. Then I was like, I am just hitting till then and might as well hit one more. That was in my mind, and I wasnt thinking 200 - I was thinking last ball, have to capitalise and hit a six. So, that was going on through my mind. I would say I got a bit lucky in the last over, when CV Milinds catch got dropped, and I got to go on strike for those 14 runs. If that catch had been taken, maybe that 200 wouldn't have happened. So, that's something I think about to this day. Like, what if that catch was taken, and then maybe I wouldn't have hit 200. That's what it's like - some things just happen. That was sort of a day, it just happened, and I would say it took me some time to process that I hit that 200 because when I went into the game, I wasn't thinking I'm going to score a 200. I was just thinking I was going to play 50 overs and see what happens. I think that's like the first time I ever played all 50 overs. So, the main ultimate goal that day was to play 50 overs, and I achieved that goal, and the 200 was a by-product, I would say. If that double hundred built his reputation, it was a Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy takedown of Shardul Thakur - three fours and two sixes in a single over - that went viral and directly led to Raos entry into the IPL 2026 season for Rajasthan Royals. I feel for me, at least personally, that knock was a turning point in my career to get into IPL, and then after getting into IPL, the double hundred happened, and then this TGT20. So, that thing I keep remembering almost every day - like because of that one over, I think I got selected, and then now I'm here and very grateful for that. In the TGT20 fixture between Warriors and Falcons, Rao admits to being stunned watching India T20I vice-captain Tilak Varma single-handedly complete a chase of 260. Such was its effect that a shell-shocked Rao could only say well played, incredible knock to Varma. Maybe that's the reason he's playing for India. He finishes games like this - even in the Asia Cup final - that knock also against Pakistan in the final, he's the only one who took on the whole chase that time. That's what I would say is the difference between an Indian player and a domestic player, and an upcoming player. Like I had the opportunity to do that yesterday, and I should have done it, and I couldn't. So, that's a learning for me - that I have to become better and try to chase scores like that and take that pressure which Tilak felt on that 260 day. I don't think he took any risk. He was just hitting the balls that were there, and what I felt about myself yesterday was that I was trying to hit every ball. Maybe I could have slowed it down a bit and maybe picked my balls, and then maybe I would have won the game yesterday because it was very chaseable, I felt. So, that's a big learning, and I have a long career ahead, hopefully, and I will try to do those things in the future. Ironically, it was Varmas guidance during Raos struggles in October 2025, when the former was in Australia for the T20I series, that helped him overcome the lean patch. I was just struggling a lot. So, I just wanted another perspective because I had my coach, obviously, but still I wanted another perspective, like how people get through that part where they're struggling and what they do. So, I just had a chat with him, and he told me to just stick to the basics, don't try too much. Maybe you're putting too much pressure on yourself and then trying too much and not enjoying yourself. So, it's like maybe enjoy yourself more and then try to stick to basics and don't think too much about the result. So, that's what he told me. During his time with Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2026, Rao spoke warmly of the reassurance he received from head coach & director of cricket Kumar Sangakkara, assistant coach Vikram Rathour, and performance coach Sid Lahiri, who repeatedly told him he wasn't in the squad merely to make up the numbers, even when game situations meant he didn't get a chance to play. That gave me a lot of confidence that I'm not here just because they had to fill up the squad, and I'm here for a reason. I learned a lot of things in batting, also. I improved a lot skill-wise, mindset-wise, and in how people approach in T20 opening or in the middle order. Being at RR also led Rao to an unexpected discovery - that he could bat in the middle order. In the practice game, I scored around 40 off 20 balls. So, that's when they told me that I can play in the middle order as well. That's when I realised maybe I have another side of me, and I started practicing for it in the nets as well. They were making me practice batting in the middle overs in the practice, and I tried and learned new shots. That's how I improved as a player as well, and that helped me. Those shots have helped me now in TG20 to make my batting better. I felt easier after playing over there in the practice sessions and against all those bowlers. For now, though, a middle-order role with Warangal Warriors remains conditional - both his head coach, Bavanaka Sandeep, and Rao agree it is something to explore only once the team has secured a top-four finish. In the leagues first-ever season, Rao was effusive in its praise. The amount of reach it has -the social media work and then crowd coming to the matches, it literally feels like an IPL match. It's a really good platform, and in the next one to two years, it's going to be the biggest league in India. That's what I feel, and hopefully, that happens, and it continues for as many years as it can. This is a great platform for youngsters like me, even the upcoming youngsters from the under-19, because all the IPL scouts will be watching. This is a great platform and not even IPL scouts, the whole of India will be watching, and I feel its huge and bigger than the other leagues, and I think in the first season only, we have a lot of audience and everything, and in the upcoming season, it's going to become bigger. So, it's a really good platform for all of us Hyderabad players. It's a really good platform, and in the next one to two years, it's going to be the biggest league in India. That's what I feel, and hopefully, that happens, and it continues for as many years as it can. This is a great platform for youngsters like me, even the upcoming youngsters from the under-19, because all the IPL scouts will be watching.

So, no words for it and exactly, leaves you speechless. For a player like Rao whos still figuring out which parts of his game to trust and which to rein in, growth has come fast, and it is, by his own admission, a great deal to process.
