Ghaziabad/Noida: The woes of the people of NCR's Noida and Ghaziabad areas have been compounded, thanks to the twin crises of power cuts and water shortage. Noida residents have complained of a significantly reduced supply of water. In sectors such as 10, 11, 12, 15, 27, 31, 32, 33, 34, 37, 56 and 71, the problem of reduced hours of supply has emerged over the past ten days.

Twenty six-year-old  Ravi Shankar Shukla  was surrounded by friends with a cake in the centre. It was not his birthday, but certainly not less than a birthday like feast also. Ravi had cleared his  civil services examinations in the first attempt securing an all India rank of 39.
