The Governor argued for a very large increase in the annual allocations for the Border Blocks under the Border Area Development Programme and at least a fourfold enlargement of BRO which, in its present form, cannot handle the very large work load which is required to be done. He also urged much better attention to the maintenance of roads and highways and a number of tunnels being constructed to enable all weather links in the State. He complained about the delay in the construction of the Zojila Tunnel and pointed out the tactical importance of alternative routes and all weather road networks. Among the links suggested by him, for better connecting J&K with the plains and between the three regions the Governor suggested the urgent upgrading of the Dhar-Udhampur road, construction of a road via Bilaspur-Rohtang Pass to connect Ladakh and a new road Korzok-Taklingla to enable all weather movements to the Valley and Ladakh. Referring to the sustained Cease Fire Violations by Pakistan across the IB in Jammu region, the Governor emphasized the need for adequate facilities being provided to the rural population residing in the villages along the IB and beyond. |

The controversy around Nestle's Maggi noodles has caused panic throughout the nation and it doesn't look like it will die down any time soon.
After the initial test results by Uttar Pradesh Department of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) showed harmful levels of monosodium glutamate (MSG) and lead in Maggi, various states across India and even Bangladesh conducted tests on Maggi to find out whether the food product is safe or not.
The controversy around Maggi has led to tests being conducted across the country.
The entire controversy began when the UP FDA last month asked Nestle India to withdraw a batch of Maggi noodles "which were manufactured in February 2014" after it found high levels of added MSG, a taste enhancer, in the noodles and lead beyond permissible limits.
