हेमंत सोरेन से कुछ सीखिए नीतीश कुमार जी… झारखंड के मंत्री ने बिहार के CM को दिया सुझाव, जानिए क्या लिखा
बिहार-झारखंड की सियासत में एक बार फिर बयानबाजी तेज हो गई है। झारखंड सरकार के मंत्री इरफान अंसारी ने बिहार के मुख्यमंत्री नीतीश कुमार को लेकर तीखा लेकिन संयमित संदेश दिया है। इरफान अंसारी ने फेसबुक पर एक पोस्ट कर&nbsp;<a href="https://www.patrika.com/topic/nitish-kumar" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">नीतीश कुमार&nbsp;</a>से न सिर्फ आत्ममंथन की अपील की, बल्कि झारखंड के मुख्यमंत्री हेमंत सोरेन के नेतृत्व और व्यवहार से कुछ सीखने का सुझाव भी दिया है। इस पोस्ट के बाद दोनों राज्यों की राजनीति में चर्चाओं का दौर शुरू हो गया है। <p></p> <p>अपने फेसबुक पोस्ट में इरफान अंसारी ने साफ किया कि उनका मकसद किसी तरह का व्यक्तिगत आक्षेप नहीं है, बल्कि उनका मकसद एक संवेदनशील विषयक पर ध्यान आकर्षित कराना है। उन्होंने लिखा कि वे विनम्रता और पीड़ा के साथ यह बात कह रहे हैं, ताकि लोकतंत्र, संविधान और मानवीय मूल्यों की गरिमा बनी रहे। उन्होंने लिखा कि सत्ता में बैठे लोगों का व्यवहार सिर्फ उनका निजी मामला नहीं होता, बल्कि वह पूरे समाज और लोकतांत्रिक व्यवस्था पर असर डालता है।<br /> <br /> <strong>SOURCE:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.patrika.com/patna-news/jharkhand-minister-irfan-ansari-advice-to-cm-nitish-kumar-to-learn-from-hemant-soren-20217319" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.patrika.com/patna-news/jharkhand-minister-irfan-ansari-advice-to-cm-nitish-kumar-to-learn-from-hemant-soren-20217319</a></p>

Araku Valley Launches Heat Pump Pilot to Promote Sustainable Tourism
<p data-end="967" data-start="474">In a significant step toward sustainable infrastructure and climate-friendly tourism, <strong data-end="655" data-start="560">Araku Valley in Andhra Pradesh has launched a pilot project deploying air-source heat pumps</strong> to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency in eco-tourism facilities. The initiative is being implemented by <strong data-end="824" data-start="779">Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL)</strong> in collaboration with state authorities, marking one of the early real-world demonstrations of heat-pump technology in India&rsquo;s tourism sector.</p> <p data-end="1515" data-start="969">Heat pumps are highly efficient systems that extract heat from ambient air and use electricity to provide heating, significantly reducing dependence on fossil fuels such as diesel or LPG. Under the Araku pilot, the technology is being used to meet hot-water and heating requirements at tourism accommodations, helping cut energy consumption by up to <strong data-end="1329" data-start="1319">60&ndash;70%</strong> compared to conventional systems. The project is expected to reduce <strong data-end="1452" data-start="1398">approximately 300 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually</strong>, while also lowering operational costs for facility operators.</p> <p data-end="2011" data-start="1517">Officials see this pilot as a scalable model that can be replicated across hill stations, resorts, hospitals, and residential projects across India. As the country works toward its net-zero ambitions, integrating efficient technologies like heat pumps into public infrastructure is becoming increasingly important. The Araku project highlights how <strong data-end="1897" data-start="1865">climate-smart infrastructure</strong> can support local economies, promote eco-tourism, and contribute meaningfully to India&rsquo;s clean energy transition.</p>

The facility, planned to house <strong data-end="841" data-start="789">5,000 megawatts (MW) of battery storage capacity</strong>, is designed to pair with renewable power sources to ensure <strong data-end="943" data-start="902">reliable, round-the-clock electricity</strong>. This project marks one of the largest energy storage investments in the country and reflects the growing importance of storage systems in mitigating the intermittency of solar and wind energy by storing excess generation and releasing it when needed.<a alt="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/cm-approves-350-acres-for-cescs-rs-12000-crore-battery-storage-unit/articleshow/126064490.cms?utm_source=chatgpt.com" href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/cm-approves-350-acres-for-cescs-rs-12000-crore-battery-storage-unit/articleshow/126064490.cms?utm_source=chatgpt.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Times of India</a></p> <p data-end="2054" data-start="1234">The battery plant will be tied into CESC&rsquo;s existing power infrastructure with the goal of enabling Kolkata &mdash; one of India&rsquo;s fastest-growing urban economies &mdash; to meet <strong data-end="1464" data-start="1400">at least 50% of its electricity needs from renewable sources</strong>. Officials believe this energy storage backbone could dramatically reduce reliance on fossil fuel generation during peak hours, cut air pollution, and stabilize electricity costs for consumers. Local policymakers emphasized the strategic importance of pairing large-scale storage with renewable generation to build a resilient, low-carbon grid that can adapt to future energy demands. Construction is slated to progress over the next five years, with broader economic spinoffs expected in jobs, supply chain development, and regional energy innovation.<a alt="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/cm-approves-350-acres-for-cescs-rs-12000-crore-battery-storage-unit/articleshow/126064490.cms?utm_source=chatgpt.com" href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/cm-approves-350-acres-for-cescs-rs-12000-crore-battery-storage-unit/articleshow/126064490.cms?utm_source=chatgpt.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Times of India</a></p>
