The 2nd hybrid wind-solar system has now been installed in Bhubaneswar, on the same stretch where the earlier system was installed.
With cloudy weather like this, the wind turbines seem to be working overtime! :)

They have been installed near the dust collectors and can power these units.
Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) has proposed a rehabilitation program of approximately 2,200 cattle through the establishment of a dedicated Cattle Rehabilitation Centre at Jamukoli. The facility will provide lifetime care to diseased, injured, disabled, abused, and elderly cattle rescued from the urban and peri-urban areas. The centre will adhere to stringent protocols for cattle housing, feeding, digitized record management, waste management, and utilization of cow dung, along with the provision of state-of-the-art veterinary healthcare facilities. These proposed interventions will collectively contribute to the overall welfare of the cattle population.
