This definitely comes as good news for the district that is in dire need of growth. The state government has approved a fund of Rs. 1.22 CR for the district based on the proposal that was sent by local BJP Leaders.  The money allocated will be used for development in Mandi, build drainage systems in shanti vihar, renovation of road in bhrarani and for other development purposes. The move is going to definitely improve BJP's image in this district, which is usually seen as a congress stronghold.  

Fourth Grade government employees in Uddham Singh Nagar District have decided to go on a strike of 3 days, demanding the implementation of 6th Pay Commission in Uttarkahand.

The government offices have already started feeling the heat due to shortage of this staff, which is expected to go on for 3 days.    

This definitely comes as a surprise for the political scene in Uttarakhand. After Pithoragarah and Dehradun witnessed a "No Confidence Motion" being passed against the District Panchayat Head, members of the Panchayat committee of District Uddham Singh Nagar followed and have passed a "No Confidence Motion" against their head, Sushila Gangwar. 20 out of 32 members have submitted the same to DM of district, alleging that the current head does not come on time for bard meetings and is involved in nepotism, thereby favouring her acquaintances for contracts in district.

In the past we have had so many instances of accidents involving tractor and trollies and the latest to add to this list is another accident, where a speeding tractor killed two kids, who were on their way to tuitions. The city and its vicinity have been having a harrowing time with these tractors and trollies. The situation has been worsening all these years and with SIDCUL's growth, it just went from bad to worse. The biggest problem with these tractor trollies is that they over speed inside residential areas without taking into consideration the population which stay in that area. Furthermore, none of these vehicles have a proper backlight or they are overloaded, which lead to their imbalance on the road.
