Noida International Airport Achieves Another Milestone with Successful Calibration of Instrument Landing System Noida/New Delhi, October 15, 2024: Noida International Airport (NIA) has successfully completed the calibration of the Instrument Landing System (ILS) and Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI). A Beech King Air 360ER from the Airports Authority of India (AAI) began the calibration process on Thursday, 10th October, with the process concluding on 14th October 2024. The calibration, carried out by AAI with support from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), represents a crucial milestone in NIA’s journey towards operational readiness, ensuring the highest safety standards for aircraft operations at the airport. The ILS is a radio navigation system that provides precise guidance to pilots during approach and landing, particularly in low visibility conditions. The system consists of two main components: The Localizer helps align the aircraft with the runway centre-line, providing horizontal guidance. The Glide Path Antenna provides vertical guidance to the aircraft ensuring a safe and smooth descent. The ILS is an essential safety system that enables pilots to land safely even when visibility is significantly reduced due to fog, rain, or other adverse weather conditions. This capability is crucial for maintaining operational efficiency and minimizing delays at the airport. Additionally, the PAPI is a system of lights positioned beside the runway, designed to provide visual indication to pilots regarding their correct descent angle during the final approach. The successful calibration of ILS and PAPI is a significant step forward for Noida International Airport as it progresses towards its operational launch. About Noida International Airport Noida International Airport (IATA code - DXN) will connect the greater Delhi area and Western Uttar Pradesh with other cities in India and the world. This world-class airport will combine Swiss efficiency and Indian hospitality to offer rich experiences and comprehensive commercial attractions and services to its passengers. NIA is committed to an ambitious net- zero emissions goal supported by sustainable design and operations principles. Yamuna International Airport Private Limited (YIAPL) was established for the development, construction and operation of the greenfield project - the Noida International Airport. The company, a 100% subsidiary of Zurich Airport International AG, is responsible for the implementation of the public-private partnership project in close partnership with the Government of Uttar Pradesh and the Government of India. The concession period for Noida International Airport commenced on October 01, 2021, and will run for 40 years. At its opening, the airport will feature one runway and one terminal and handle a capacity of 12 million passengers – with the potential for further development in additional construction phases.

Mental health matters

Mental Health Matters: Zindaginama’s Shweta Basu Prasad Breaks Down Misconceptions Zindaginama, a six-episode anthology streaming on SonyLIV, delves into the complexities of mental health, tackling stigmas through powerful storytelling and exceptional performances. Each episode explores a distinct mental health condition, fostering empathy and encouraging conversations that are often overlooked in society. In the episode Bhanwar, Shweta Basu Prasad plays a pivotal role and shares her perspective on common misconceptions about mental health: “One of the biggest misconceptions is that mental health issues only affect the privileged or the rich. We often hear things like, ‘Yeh humein kaise ho sakta hai?’, ‘She’s possessed,’ or ‘It’s black magic’. These narratives are damaging and can make the person struggling feel invalidated. Acceptance is the first step. Today, there’s too much information online but still very little real understanding.” Her words capture the essence of Zindaginama—challenging long-held myths around mental health and encouraging society to approach it with empathy, care, and responsibility. Presented by Applause Entertainment and produced by AntiMatter, with conceptualization by Mpower, Zindaginama is a testament to the power of storytelling in addressing important social issues. The series aspires to foster understanding and empathy surrounding mental health, making it a vital addition to contemporary narratives. Directed by a talented lineup, including Aditya Sarpotdar, Sukriti Tyagi, Mitakshara Kumar, Danny Mamik, Rakhee Sandilya, and Sahaan, Zindaginama showcases personal journeys that resonate deeply with viewers. It aims to illuminate not just the struggles but also the strength and resilience that can emerge from these experiences.

Witness Aayushi Bhave's Empowering Journey on Star Bharat’s 10:29 Ki Aakhri Dastak! Star Bharat’s “10:29 Ki Aakhri Dastak” is taking viewers on an exhilarating ride as the storyline becomes even more captivating. The characters are evolving, working hard to leave their past behind, especially the haunting memories of the dayaan. In this fresh chapter, Abhimanyu (Rajveer Singh) has stepped into the role of a house husband, while his wife Preeti (Shambhavi Singh) is making waves as a garage owner in Patna. Each character is on their own meaningful journey of growth and self-discovery. But it’s Bindu, played by Aayushi Bhave, who truly shines with her remarkable transformation. She goes from being a simple dancer to a powerful businesswoman, a change that’s both surprising and incredibly inspiring. Bindu’s journey reflects resilience and ambition, making her story a standout in this exciting new phase of the series. Fans can’t wait to see how these characters continue to evolve! Aayushi Bhave reflects on her character's journey, saying, “My character Bindu started as a dancer in Chamkiya, admired by everyone but deeply in love with Abhimanyu. She went to great lengths to win him over. While she was bold and beautiful, her profession left her feeling unrespected, which I believe is wrong. Her choices were driven by unforeseen circumstances, and I personally believe we should support individuals in similar situations in building more respectable lives like how in our show, Bindu has transformed into Bindiya, successfully running a travel agency in Chamkiya and creating a life for herself. Her style has changed drastically from bold sarees and heavy makeup to a more modern look, evident in her appearance and demeanor. I hope the creators introduce a charming partner for this new Bindiya soon.” laughed Aayushi. The captivating transformation of Bindu, along with the growth of the other characters, has made 10:29 Ki Aakhri Dastak a must-watch. Tune in to Star Bharat from Monday to Saturday at 10:29 PM to witness this exciting journey unfold!
