Spice of Life | Child’s play: Forgotten fruit of climbing trees

Our version of a treat wasn’t a chocolate or a candy but a guava or a mulberry plucked from a branch, often unwashed and shared among friends.

Shifting the toll plaza has been a longstanding demand of residents over the past decade as rapid urbanisation of newer sectors beyond the toll led to traffic jams for thousands of commuters who use this stretch to commute to and from Manesary every day. The GMDA took possession of 28 acres from the Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) in January 2024 for shifting the toll plaza
