Let us talk a bit about why the world celebrates a day dedicated to cats and why we actually need one.

Origin of International Cat Day:

This day was conceived to celebrate our feline companions and raise awareness about their welfare. Since its inception, it has gained widespread recognition, with cat lovers across the globe joining in to honour these enigmatic and beloved creatures.

Essence of International Cat Day:

International Cat Day is more than just an opportunity to share adorable cat photos on social media (although that’s a delightful part of it). It’s a day to acknowledge the profound connection we share with cats. From their charmingly aloof demeanours to their unanticipated displays of affection, cats enrich our lives in ways that are both heartwarming and amusing. The essence lies in celebrating these furry friends as integral members of our families and advocating for their well-being.

Trends on International Cat Day:

In recent years, the celebration of International Cat Day has taken on an increasingly digital dimension. Social media platforms are flooded with cat-centric content, from heart-melting videos to hilarious memes. Cat influencers have emerged, boasting substantial online followings that are equally fascinated by their captivating antics. This day has also become a platform for fundraising and spreading awareness about issues such as responsible pet ownership, adoption, and the importance of spaying/neutering to control feline populations.

Looking Forward:

As International Cat Day continues to grow in popularity, its influence extends beyond the virtual realm. Shelters and animal welfare organisations often host events, adoption drives, and educational workshops to mark the occasion. The day has evolved into an opportunity for cat lovers to contribute to causes that benefit not only their beloved pets but also the broader feline community. With each passing year, International Cat Day becomes a stronger voice in advocating for the rights, welfare, and celebration of cats everywhere.

On this day, many global organizations, peace activists, and governments get vocal to raise awareness about the destructive power of nuclear wars and the growing dangers of nuclear proliferation globally, especially among the first nations. They unanimously call for the disarmament of weapons and signing of agreements among different nations.

Remembering the Victims of Hiroshima:

This day serves as a global event platform to remember and honor the many victims of the atomic bombing, including the survivors who suffered for many years from exposure to the radiation caused by the bombing. It encourages people to be empathetic and understanding of the immense suffering that was caused to millions by just one act of war.

Need for diplomatic ways to resolve conflicts:

The events of Hiroshima Day starkly remind us of the many horrors of war and the devastating consequences of using nuclear weapons. It emphasises on the fact that every global conflict should be resolved in a diplomatic manner rather than resorting to violence and destruction, which cripples generations.

Advocating Global Cooperation:

This day also presses on the need for international cooperation to prevent the recurrence of such a catastrophic event in future. It calls nations to work together towards creating a world free from nuclear threats.

written by Staff Reporter

Celebrated as a day for friends, this is one of the most popular global celebrations

As the world celebrates ‘Friendship Day’ on Sunday, 6 August, we get into some interesting facts and details related to this popular day.

For those who are unaware, the ‘International Friendship Day’, also popularly known as the ‘World Friendship Day’, was first proposed by the ‘World Friendship Crusade’, an international civil organization, in 1958. The organisation advocated fellowship and friendship among fellow human beings, irrespective of their race, colour, or religion.

Originally meant to be celebrated on the 30th of July, the celebration was moved on to the first Sunday of August.

In 2011, the United Nations had officially declared 30th July as the ‘International Day of Friendship’, with the sole aim to a culture of peace, tolerance, and understanding among nations and individuals, and fostering friendly bonds between people from across diverse backgrounds.

However, many countries across the globe, including India, celebrate the International Friendship Day on the first Sunday of August, and despite the difference in dates, the spirit of the celebration remains the same.

This year the International Friendship Day, which is being celebrated on 6 August, coincides with the ‘Hiroshima Day’, a very significant day which marks the 77th anniversary of the devastating atomic bombing of the Japanese city of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, during World War II. This historic day stands as a remider of the destructive power of nuclear weapons and the catastrophic impact they can have on civilian populations across the world. In a way, it emphasises on the importance of global friendship for a better future for all.

Today, the ‘International Friendship Day’ enjoys a global observance and is enthusiastically celebrated in various countries across the world. For millions this day provides with an oppourtunity to express their love and appreciation for their friends.

This day is celebrated in unique ways and styles in different cultures and communities, with the popular ones being the exchanging of gifts, organizing of fun events, and spending of quality time with friends. together.

Following into the digital age the celebrations of ‘International Friendship Day’ spreads across the social media like wildfire. On this day, like in the case of many other such celebrations, the internet gets flooded with people sharing messages of friendship, photos and memorable moments with their friends.

All online platforms are filled with friendship hashtags like #InternationalFriendshipDay, #WorldFriendshipDay, #FriendshipDay, #BestFriendsForever and the likes.

On a different level, many people also encourage to take the spirit of friendship beyond their loved friends and into the world of strangers who may not be lucky enough to have good friends or friends in general.

Many charitable campaigns and events flag off on the International Friendship Day and continue strong for years. If nothing else, then some kind souls share their kindness and goodwill with strangers, if only for a day.

Many look at this day as an opportunity to reignite lost friendships and make up for the past as an act of friendship and forgiveness.

Whatever the reason, and whatever the way, the ‘International Friendship Day’ helps spread the strong message of friendship, understanding, compassion and the natural bond that binds us all as humans.

Happy Friendship Day to all of you!

Picnickers flock at Pandavkada waterfall, Owe Dam and Kharghar Hills, despite ban

by Staff Reporter July 11, 2023

written by Staff Reporter

Monsoon lovers have been ignoring the official order that has prohibited visiting these places, and others, from 11 June to 30 September 2023.

Picnickers and revellers have started visiting the Pandavkada waterfall, the Owe Dam, the Owe Hills and other such spots in Kharghar as the monsoon has finally set in. These areas have been overflowing thanks to the continuous rainfall in the city since a couple of days, enough to draw in monsoon lovers.

The Kharghar police had issued a public order banning visit to a number of places, especially the risky Pandavkada waterfall, starting 11 June till 30 September 2023.

However, just like every year, the plea has fallen on deaf ears and people have been blatantly ignoring the order.

The ban is a regular occurrence during the monsoons due to many past incidents where people had lost their lives by drowning in the overflowing water, either after slipping or getting drifted away by strong currents. In one such tragic incident in 2019, four people had drowned.

The list of prohibited spots in Kharghar this year carries the names of places like Pandavkada waterfall – the most ill-fated spot, the Driving Range waterfall, the Owe Dam and Hill, the Taloja Jail Pond and the Hill around it and some other spots that either have water flowing through or have accumulated waterbodies.

Noticeboards informing picnickers about the prohibition and the fines that follow if they are caught visiting these places, have been placed at all the entrances leading to such spots.

The Kharghar police have deployed constables at the Pandavkada waterfall’s main entry point near the Kharghar Gurudwara and at the entrance of the Owe Village which leads to the Owe Dam area.

However, revellers have been finding ways to visit these spots and others making use of the hilly terrain and multiple possible entries from other spots, which are impossible to be manned round the clock.

“We stop people from venturing into these places but they find different and isolated routes to sneak in,” a constable posted at one of the spots informed.

Many of these revellers happen to be youngsters who either go early during the mornings when there aren’t many constables around or simply take routes that are not monitored.

In the past there have been many incidents where people had gotten lost along the routes they had taken or simply got stuck in water-filled spots.

There was a much-talked about incident in July 2021 when as many as 116 picnickers had to be rescued by the fire department, after being stranded at the Kharghar Hills area for hours. The return route was cut off by an overflowing stream. Among the stranded were many women and children too.

These spots also get a good number of drunkards who make merry and throw away broken beer bottles around. Small incidents involving scuffles after drinking, falling down on the way back due to intoxication have been reported in the past.

A good number of people have also been hiking the Owe Hills area since a week. While families and youngsters usually hike here on weekends, the rains have been drawing in more people than ever.

Advocate Shelly Pandya, a local Kharghar resident, shares, “While locals visit under the ‘false belief’ of knowing everything about the area, many come in from places outside Mumbai and are unaware of the prohibition until they reach these spots. Once here, they consider it a waste of time to go back without doing anything and end up visiting these places in any way possible.”

“The irony is in the fact that the order issued by the police under CrPC section 144 has not succeeded in discouraging people from visiting these spots and putting their lives and that of their loves once at risk,” she adds.

The Kharghar police have been doing their best to make people aware of the risks involved but it is a matter of personal responsibility. If people cannot understand and abide by the rules then it becomes their own responsibility and liability.

Owe Dam, Kharghar: A personal haven for nature lovers

Owe Dam, Kharghar: A monsoon delight for nature lovers

by Staff Reporter July 5, 2023

written by Staff Reporter

Nestled between magnificent hills, the Owe Dam, a small structure built on the Owe Lake, is a majestic natural setting for nature lovers who seek serene environments.

Place: Owe Dam
Locations: Owe Village Forest Area, Kharghar
City: Navi Mumbai
District: Raigad
Taluka: Panvel
Administrative authority: Panvel City Municipal Corporation
Address: Owe Camp, Owe Village Forest Area, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra 410210
Accessibility: The Owe Dam is officially off limits for revellers owing to the risks involved during the monsoons.

Owe Dam is located in the forest area of Owe Village (also Owe Camp) in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai. It is unofficially one of the best picnic locations in Kharghar, though in an isolated spot nestled between the Kharghar Hills and Owe Hills.

For those who are unaware and have heard the name “Owe” for the first time; Owe is a village in Owe Camp area, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai.

The Owe Dam lies in the interiors, towards the forest area of Kharghar (Owe) Hills near Gholwadi village, and is constructed on a holding point or Owe lake, as people call it, which is located right in the centre of the hills that cover the water body like a fence.

For first timers, the Owe Dam is not a huge dam or an exploited picnic spot like Pandavkada (Kharghar) Waterfalls (which is prohibited) or the driving range waterfalls (which is highly crowded and exploited).

The aloofness and calmness of the Owe Dam area makes it the best of the lot and it is the ideal choice for those who like to enjoy the company of nature alone, and not amid reckless and unconcerned frolickers.

The best thing is that Owe Dam is located in an isolated spot and hence spared of the exploits of irresponsible and unconcerned people who only know to make merry and create filth wherever they go.

What makes the Owe Dam area special are the green hills that surround the Owe Lake, the silence, the fields around, the pristine water and the complete absence of exhausting city life.

The calmness that you will find at the Owe Dam, sitting alone or in the company of your friends, simply gazing at the horizon, the water or the hills, will give you more positivity than visiting a pub and socializing in chaotic and mind it, expensive settings.

For those who would like to have a glimpse of village life – dainty huts, cattle, bullocks carts, food being cooked on the choolah and children actually playing around with actual play materials (and not mobile phones) – slower your pace and absorb all the vibes of a village life that you can, in your short visit.

Best time to visit Owe Dam:

Monsoons is the best time to visit Owe Dam although it is a great place throughout the year. However, it is for people who like to sit calmly by the waters in a serene environment.

Things to do at Owe Dam, Kharghar:

Well, Owe Dam is on a lake which is calm and serene. So you can sit down and simply ponder over things while watching the calm water body.

The serene, pollution free environment of the Owe Dam area (as compared to other parts of Kharghar, especially sectors 34, 35, 35 till the Taloja area, which are polluted owing to the pollution by factories in the Taloja MIDC) makes it an ideal location to indulge in some yoga or meditation routine.

Having a small picnic of sorts, with family or friends, which involves snacks and treats can also be a great thing to do (provided you don’t litter around).

For those who like to simply jump and splash in water, the Owe Dam is a safe water body unless you act irresponsibly.

Every now and then cyclists from all around Navi Mumbai pedal their way to Kharghar and to the Owe Dam to have some quiet early morning moments.

The Owe Dam has a small structure that stands out as a pump house or a small lighthouse (as some people call it). It is a great location for photography and you can shoot nature photos, pre-wedding or portfolios.

How to reach Owe Dam: Best mode of transportation

You can reach Owe Dam, Kharghar, by Train, Bus, Four/Two Wheeler, Cycle or on Foot/Walking

Train: The Kharghar Railway station is the nearest railway station to reach Owe Dam. From Kharghar station you can take an auto or a sharing ride (ask for a tam tam). You can also take a bus to reach Owe.

Bus: There are multiple buses that start from the Kharghar Railway station that run on the Kharghar station-Taloja bus route that passes along the Owe Village bus stop, which is at a 15 minute walk from the Owe Dam.

Four Wheeler and Two Wheeler: From Utsav Chowk, drive all along the Raintree Marg, past TATA Hospital. From Taloja, drive all the way towards the TATA Hospital and take a right turn at the crossroads before the hospital.

Cycle: Cyclists can pedal all the way to Owe Dam and trust us, cycling to the dam would be a great experience as it is easy to manage and ride along the tricky path that leads to the dam. Rent a Yulu Bike/Cycle and enjoy the ride to the dam.

Walking: This one is the best mode for locals and even visitors to enjoy the adventurous walk to the Owe Dam.

Directions (Google maps) to reach Owe Dam, Kharghar

For first time visitors to Owe Dam

Allroads that leads to Owe Dam are wide and smooth till the Owe bus stop. Once there, you will be greeted by muddy tracks leading up to the Owe Camp (Village) and Hills area. So, wear light and comfortable attires and carry water bottles too. And yes, you will have to ignore the ugly quarry that is hard to miss – simply ignore it or you will find yourself cursing the administration that is slowly eating up the hills like termites.

Safety tips for visiting Owe Dam

Stay behind safety barriers, if any
Supervise children very closely, dont leave them alone
Wear non-slip footwear
Avoid restricted areas
Be aware of the water level

Advice for couples and girls visiting Owe Dam

Though Owe Dam is safe for girls and couples who wish to steal some private moments in the area, it would be advisable not to visit during odd hours or alone, if possible. You never know. If nothing else, you can get into a tricky situation if you meet with an untoward incident, like slipping and falling down or some health issue. Take along a friend or a couple of friends.

P.S. While you will enjoy the scenery at the Owe Dam, make sure that you don’t leave behind your footprints (bottles, wrappers and all that filth). Nobody is obliged to clean off your filth – you bring it, you take it back or else don’t visit such places! Thanks!

CIDCO okays ‘MetroNeo’ buses for Navi Mumbai Metro

by Staff Reporter May 11, 2023

written by Staff Reporter

Lines 2, 3, and 4 of Navi Mumbai Metro (NMM) will deploy this highly cost-effective transit system over the traditional ‘Gauge Metro’ system deployed in Line 1 (CBD to Taloja).

The City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO), has approved a proposal for the deployment of a modern and cost-effective system called ‘MetroNeo’ for the remaining lines of the Navi Mumbai Metro. The new system will be deployed on NMM Lines 2, 3 and 4, replacing the standard gauge metro system, used for Line 1.

Just to make readers aware, Line 1 of the Navi Mumbai Metro has had multiple trial runs and is expected to commence operations soon after receiving the final statutory approval from the Commission of Railway Safety (CMRS). Though the inauguration has been delayed quite a number of times, it is said to commence soon this year.

The development authority will take up the construction of NMM Line 2 next. With 6 elevated stations connecting MIDC-Taloja to Khandeshwar, Line 2 will run 7.12 kilometres.

The next to follow will be NMM Line 3, which will have 3 elevated stations connecting Pendhar to MIDC Taloja, running a total of 3.87 kilometres.

The last one to be constructed will be NMM Line 4, which will connect Panvel to the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport, running a total of 4.17 kilometres.

MetroNeo, Navi Mumbai

The Navi Mumbai Metro Lines 2,3 and 4 will use ‘MetroNeo’ a modern Mass Rapid Transport System (MRTS) system, which uses an overhead traction trolley bus system with rubber tyres. In comparison to ‘Gauge Metro’ it is smoother, less noisy and cost-effective.

Navi Mumbai MetroNeo features

Fully air-conditioned buses
Automated door-closing system
Comfortable seats
Level boarding
Passenger announcement system
Information system (electronic display)

Broad benefits of MetroNeo Navi Mumbai

Smooth transport
Quicker pace
Cost-effective
Comparatively reliable

CIDCO aims to make NMM Line 2 operational within 2 years, after starting Line 1 this year. A credit line of Rs 1,000 crore and a detailed report of Line 2 is ready. Tenders will be floated soon and contractors appointed for the project.

While residents of Navi Mumbai have taken the news in good spirit, they hope that CIDCO will start the Navi Mumbai Metro Line 1 soon.

NMMC installs experimental smart poles in two spots in Navi Mumbai

by Staff Reporter May 7, 2023

written by Staff Reporter

The poles will help monitor pollution and crime situations, to name a few, in their respective locations

The Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) has come up with yet another innovative measures to tackle crime and pollution in the city; Smart Poles! In a pilot project of the NMMC, two smart poles have been installed in two different locations on Navi Mumbai – Koperkhairane and the Vashi-Sanpada highway.

Details and features about NMMC’s Smart Poles:

Built in wireless connectivity
CCTV
Sensors to monitor temperature
Accurate gauging of air pollution levels
An emergency button to alert local police station during emergencies

The two smart poles installed by the NMMC will be monitoring daily activities around them and also tracking daily temperature and pollution levels.

The NMMC is hopeful that the two installations will bear fruitful results and provide them with reason enough to install more such smart poles in Navi Mumbai.

Residents, though enthusiastic about the idea, still doubt how far the experiment would go in helping the NMMC monitor such hotspots and most importantly, how would they be able to ensure that the installations are not stolen by miscreants.
