How early rain, Yamuna flooding impacted life cycle of dragonflies

A recent survey of dragonflies and damselflies in seven DDA biodiversity parks in New Delhi has shown that the early rain and flooding of the Yamuna River have impacted their life cycle. The flooding resulted in the absence of marshy areas, which are preferred habitats for these insects. The survey also found that four of the seven parks had fewer species compared to last year. Wetland restoration in some parks led to an increase in species, while extreme weather patterns affected the development and movement of the insects.

Noida may allot plots via draw of lots, interviews, not e-auction

The Noida and Greater Noida authorities held an online board meeting to discuss policies for allotting industrial plots. The meeting focused on allotment through draw of lots and interviews, as well as parameters for allotment. Plots in different phases will be allotted through different methods, with e-auction being used for Phase 1 due to fewer plots. Applicants will need to deposit 10% of the total premium upfront for registration, and payment options will be available. Those applying for larger plots will need to participate in an interview. The authorities plan to formalize these decisions soon.
