Ghaziabad: Commuters driving from Delhi to Meerut will get the first full expressway experience beginning Thursday when the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) opens the remaining two of the four phases of the Delhi-Meerut Expressway (DME) to traffic for a trial run.
If one is using the access-controlled lanes of the expressway the six middle lanes, three on either side the 82km drive from Delhi’s Sarai Kale Khan to Meerut will take under an hour. Earlier, the drive between the two cities used to take at least two hours. The formal inauguration of the expressway will, however, take place in about two months.

GHAZIABAD: “Badhiya se donon ka chehra aana chahiye (our faces should be clearly visible)”, Shringi Narayan Yadav instructs his aides before beating a 14-year-old boy black and blue. With blows raining on him, all the boy can mutter through the pain is a faint, “Paani peene aaye thhe uncle (I had come here to drink water)”.
But the beatings did not stop. Shringi didn’t just want to teach him a lesson. He also wanted to set an example. The man from Bhagalpur in Bihar, a worker at the Dasna Devi temple in Ghaziabad, had on Friday evening flown into rage at the sight of the boy drinking water from a tap on the premises of the temple. Shringi asked the boy his name, before ripping into him.

A vegetarian woman approached the consumer court after she was served a non-vegetarian pizza by an American restaurant in Ghaziabad. The customer has moved the consumer court seeking Rs 1 crore in compensation saying she will have to undergo arduous and expensive rituals to undo the ‘damage’.

On March 21, 2019, Deepali had placed an order for a vegetarian pizza from the pizza outlet in Ghaziabad of Uttar Pradesh for the family after they celebrated Holi during the day.

GHAZIABAD: For the past 90 days, Devendra Singh from Gurdwara Nanakpuri Tanda Sahib has been managing the kitchen for protesting farmers at UP Gate. Earlier, the protest site used to be dotted with langars, with people standing in long queues to receive food.
Now, there aren’t many takers and the ration requirements have come down significantly as the Ghazipur border protest site has thinned out. “There are fewer people to feed. Besides, we can’t store cooked food in this season as it will get spoiled,” said Singh.
