The Facebook group celebrated its 2nd anniversary week in a very interesting manner by organizing a series of Online Contests on the forum. The contests began on 15th May at all three groups of Udaipurwale (Udaipurwale, Udaipurwale Foodies and Udaipurwale Women) with a Photo With Maa Contest followed by 4 word Horror Story, True False, Identify the Location, Selfie with Makeup,Selfie without Makeup, Food Decoration, Spot the Difference, Photography, Debate etc. Nearly 55 brands and businesses joined hands with Udaipurwale to sponsor gifts for winners.

पी.एस.के ऑफिस पर चढ़ी धूल, लोगों को बना रहें हैं फूल (fool)!!!

उदयपुर पासपोर्ट सेवा केंद्र (पी.एस.के) श्रीमती वसुंधरा राजे का इंतज़ार करते करते धूल खा रहा है। श्रीमती राजे, जो की पी.एस.के का उद्घाटन करने आने वाली थीं, फ़िलहाल विधान सभा के सत्रों में व्यस्त हैं।
उद्घाटन की तिथि दो बार(Maybe More!!!!) कैंसिल हो चुकी है, जिसका कारण ‘technical issues’ बताया गया है। 3 मार्च 2017 से खिसक खिसक के उत्घाटन की तिथि 25 मार्च 2017 तक आ गयी थी। होली के बाद होने वाला यह पासपोर्ट सेवा केंद्र का उद्घाटन अब तक हो नही पाया है।
मजदूरों से तो बड़ी तेज़ी से पासपोर्ट सेवा केंद्र ऑफिस के ‘finishing touches’ दिलवा दिए गये, फिर उद्घाटन में इतनी देरी क्यों लग रही है? लोगों की आशाओं पर पानी फेरते हुए, सरकार के यह वादे झूंठे लग रहें हैं। बेचारे शहरवासी गर्मी में रोज़ पी.एस.के पहुँचते हैं, और खली हाथ लौट आते हैं। सिर्फ लोग ही नहीं, यहाँ तक की सार्वजनिक प्रतिनिधि भी पासपोर्ट सेवा केंद्र के उत्घाटन की आस बंधे खड़े हैं।

सूत्रों की माने तो अभी तक की ‘latest updates about PSK in Udaipur’ यही है की उसका उद्घाटन किसी आगे की तिथि पर रखा गया है (जो की एक unknown date है)।

Swachh Survekshan 2017: Udaipur ranked 310 out of 434 cities!

Swachh Survekshan 2017: Udaipur ranked 310 out of 434 cities!

Udaipur has found its place at #310 out of 434 cities in the survey, Swachh Survekshan 2017. Indore is ranked as the cleanest city in India while Gonda in Uttar Pradesh was ranked as the dirtiest in the same survey. The Swachh Survekshan 2017 was conducted in 434 cities and 37 lac Indian citizens participated in it making it the largest survey conducted by the government.

Talking about the other cities of our state; Bundi came out to be the cleanest city with a rank of 171 followed by Sikar-180, Pali-186, and Jodhpur-209 while the capital city Jaipur was at 215th rank. Udaipur ranked 13th out of 29 cities examined in Rajasthan.

Swachh Survekshan 2017 was based on the results obtained on grounds of the ongoing efforts to make urban areas free of open defecation and to improve the door-to-door collection, processing, and disposal of Municipal Solid Waste. Of the total score of 2,000,900 marks were assigned for performance in respect of ODF and solid waste management, 600 marks for Citizen Feedback and 500 marks for Independent Observation.

The Union minister for urban development, M Venkaiah Naidu said that UP, Bihar, Rajasthan, Punjab and Kerala need to substantially step up efforts to improve sanitation standards in urban areas.

The top ten clean cities in India as per the survey are:

  1. Indore
  2. Bhopal
  3. Vishakhapatnam
  4. Surat
  5. Mysuru
  6. Tiruchirapally
  7. New Delhi Municipal Council
  8. Navi Mumbai
  9. Tirupati
  10. Vadodara

Udaipur, as perceived, is a clean city.  However, the survey findings seem to contradict the city’s belief. Seeing the bright side, Udaipur was ranked 417 out of 476 cities surveyed in last August; the rank has dropped down to 310 in the current survey. This is better than the last time, but efforts must be made to make our city cleaner.

Urban Square: The Largest Mall of Rajasthan coming in Udaipur!

Urban Square Udaipur Elevation

Last week, while roaming in and around Udaipur, we happened to come across a new construction site. Quite a huge one it appeared, so out of curiosity, we thought of knowing about what this massive construction was turning into. Stopping by the site, we inquired about the construction; couldn’t gather much information apart from the fact that it was named ‘Urban Square’ and hence we ended up with more curiosity!

Urban Square Udaipur under Construction

Now, going by the rumors it is going to be a mall and will be functioning in a couple of years. Another mall, really???  What can be refreshing about a new mall!!

Digging a bit about what Urban Square is, we asked a few people in the same field. And we came to make ourselves aware of the fact that it is the ‘Largest Mall in Rajasthan’. Okay! Now, this was something very interesting to us and hence we decided to dive into this and meet the officials to know more about the next big thing in the town.

Urban Square Udaipur Elevation

After a curious and overwhelming conversation about the mall and its ongoing state and what all it shall offer to the city, we came to know certain facts.

First, it is going to unbolt in our city in Sukher, a couple of Km’s down Celebration Mall.

Second, the mall is going to be a mix of European style high street shopping.

Third, the total area of the development is going to be around 23.5 lac square feet!! Whoa! Indeed quite large, larger than the World Trade Park at Jaipur which is approximately 23 lac square feet.

We also could see some of the visuals and brochures of the mall. It would be a retail cum tourist destination and would possibly contain a large hotel (we are told Holiday Inn), high-end offices, commercial suites, banquets and a shopping mall with a multiplex. ‘All in One’ it seems.

There would be a market dedicated to the local retailers as well. We are told many National & International brands like ‘Mark and Spencer’ etc. are likely to tie up with Urban Square. A chain of eateries would also accompany the mammoth construction. We are also told that the Multiplex in the mall is also going to be the largest in Udaipur having 7 screens with a ‘Gold Class’. It is quite interesting to note that the area it is being established in, ‘Urban Square’ may attract some of the major tourist flocks that turn up in the city every year, visiting Nathdwara.

Aren’t you excited? Definitely, we are! Such developments can turn our beautiful city into a metropolitan some or the other day. As new projects coming in Udaipur, the facet of the city would change and surely we as Udaipurites can boast our city all the way more!

If you need any additional details to ping them on:

White Tiger Ready To Arrive Udaipur From Chennai, Faces Language Barriers

white-tiger-sajjangarh-biological-park

 

“Either the tiger learns Mewari language or the caretakers here learn Tamil.” The specific words that officials stated on the buzz of white tiger’s tongue hitch.

white-tiger-sajjangarh-biological-parkWhite Tiger who only knows Tamil, ready to get new home in Udaipur

But, this is an exciting event for Udaipur and wildlife lovers as very soon Sajjangarh Biological Park is going to welcome big cat “Rama” in the territory.

Rama is a five-year-old white male tiger who is being moved from Arignar Anna Zoological Park in Chennai. His relocation is a part of an exchange program in which two wolves will also be sent from Jodhpur and Jaipur to their new location Vandaloor Zoo (Chennai).

By seeing the language barriers, this appears to be causing a problem for the white tiger which has somehow officials did not foresee.

And, after knowing about the big cat’s dialect, the forest department team from Udaipur, which has gone to bring the tiger from Chennai’s Arignar Anna Zoological Park, is also going to bring his caretaker who can command tiger in Tamil. That’s why his present caretaker Chellan is going to accompany him to his new home along with a veterinary doctor.

After understanding both the population and language situation, the Central Zoo Authority has approved the exchange and expecting the revenue of the Udaipur Park.

Rahul Bhatnagar, Chief conservator of forests, Udaipur, said, “We already have a female tigress, Damini, brought in from the Pune zoo last year. The presence of male tiger will help in improving the tiger population.”

“There are huge numbers of animal lovers in Udaipur, and the presence of white tiger will be another attraction for them. The park witnessed a footfall of 80,000 this year and generated revenue of Rs 25 lakh,” Bhatnagar said.

This hitch of tiger who understands only Tamil language has left zookeepers in a fix, but it is definitely going to amaze everyone with its presence.
