Joseph Baptista Gardens

The Joseph Baptista Gardens, locally known as the Mazagaon Gardens, is a 1.5-acre (0.6 ha) park in Mazagaon, South Mumbai, India. It lies atop Bhandarwada hill, behind the Dockyard Road railway station, at an altitude of 32 metres (105 ft) and offers a panoramic view of the Mumbai harbour and the southern business district of the city. It was originally named after John Hay Grant, the Municipal Commissioner of Bombay (1877–1881), who built the public garden spread over 1.5 acres (0.6 ha) above a water reservoir between 1880–1884. Shortly after India's independence in 1947, the gardens were renamed after Joseph Baptista, an Indian freedom activist from Mazagaon. History After the British arrived in Bombay in the 1660s, they selected Bhandarwala Hill, a basalt rocky outcrop as a site for the Mazagon Fort, that was built in 1680. However, the fort was completely razed by Siddi ruler Yakut Khan after he withdrew his siege on the orders of the Mughal emperor, Aurangzeb. In 1884, to address the shortage of potable water in the city, several hills were selected as storage tanks by the civic administration. Water from the Vihar Lake was pumped to the Bhandarwada Hill reservoir, that was then distributed to the city. Over it the John Hay Grant park was built. In 1925, the capacity was increased to 20,000,000 imperial gallons (90,900,000 L). Park The park is frequented by neighbourhood residents. It is mostly patronised by couples, joggers, senior citizens, and students who find peaceful corners to study. Cycas, ixora, musanda, bougainvillea, and hibiscus are some of the plants found in the garden. As part of a makeover plan, the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (BMC) earmarked ₹5.34 million (US$55,452) to beautify the gardens. Local residents however are upset over the plans for the makeover, and have claimed that the BMC have uprooted trees, thrown away wrought iron gates. Work on the renovations is set to be completed by February 2009. See also Malabar Hill Kamla Nehru Park Mazagaon Fort References Gallery

Leopold Cafe

Leopold Cafe er en stor og populær café og restaurant i Mumbai i Indien. Forretningen er grundlagt i 1871 som udsalgssted for bl.a. spiseolier, men fik sin nuværende form, da den åbnede som restaurant i 1987 og yderligere etablerede den anden pub i Mumbai i 1991. Leopold Cafe er bl.a. kendt fra australieren Gregory David Roberts' roman Shantaram fra 2003 (udgivet på dansk med samme titel af NB Books i 2007). Leopold Cafe, der ligger i den sydlige del af Mumbai nær bl.a. luksushotellet Taj Mahal Palace & Tower og skråt over for Colaba Police Station, var et af de første mål for terroraktionen i Mumbai i november 2008. Restauranten blev hårdt ramt af to terroristers voldsomme beskydning af gæster og ansatte med automatvåben (AK-47) med mange dræbte, og med en dansker som tilfældigt vidne. Cafeen blev genåbnet fire dage efter angrebet, men blev dog midlertidigt lukket af myndighederne som følge af den store tiltrækningseffekt, som hændelse havde resulteret i.

Leopold Cafe

The Leopold Cafe and Bar is a restaurant and bar on Colaba Causeway, Colaba , Mumbai, India, located across from the Colaba Police station. It was one of the first sites attacked in the 2008 Mumbai attacks. History The Leopold Cafe was founded in 1871 by Iranis (a term used for Zoroastrians in Mumbai who arrived in India in the 19th century, as opposed to "Parsis") and named after King Leopold of the Belgians. These Zoroastrian Iranians came to India in the late 19th and early 20th century, and many of them opened restaurants now often termed Irani cafés. It first started out as a wholesale cooking oil store and over the years has variously been a restaurant, store and pharmacy (hence the name "Leopold Cafe & Stores"). Prior to the terrorist attack, the cafe was particularly known as a popular hangout for foreign tourists. After the attack, it is now also popular with many Indians to commemorate the spirit of defiance. The Leopold Cafe has preserved some of the signs of the attack as a memorial, whereas at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel and the Trident Hotel, the damage from the attacks has been repaired. The cafe uses an Achaemenid Persian Lion Rhyton as a part of its logo to indicate its Zoroastrian affiliation. The cafe is one of few Irani cafes that are still comfortably in business, while many others are fading away. 2008 Mumbai attacks The cafe was an early site of gunfire and grenade explosions during the 2008 Mumbai attacks by terrorists on 26 November, at about 9:30 PM. The terrorists, approximately an hour after landing, fired shots into the restaurant from outside, killing 11 people and injuring 28 people. The restaurant was extensively damaged during the attacks. Sourav Mishra, a Reuters reporter and one of the first media witnesses of the attack, suffered severe bullet injuries. After spending one and a half minutes at the Leopold Cafe, the terrorists walked over to the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, the main target. The cafe defiantly reopened four days after the attack, but was reclosed on the recommendation of the police as a safety measure after two hours, due to the unexpectedly large size of crowds gathering there. In popular culture The cafe was also mentioned extensively in the novel Shantaram and its sequel The Mountain Shadow. Shantaram is about an Australian bank robber and heroin addict who escapes from jail and flees to Bombay, as Mumbai was formerly called. Of all the very typical "Bombay" things and places mentioned in the book is the Leopold Café. The novel was the reason many patrons returned after the attack.

Kraftwerk Tata Mundra

Das Kraftwerk Tata Mundra ist ein Kohlekraftwerk in Indien, das am Arabischen Meer nahe der Stadt Mundra im Bundesstaat Gujarat gelegen ist. Mit einer installierten Leistung von 4 GW ist es eines der leistungsstärksten thermischen Kraftwerke in Indien und dient zur Abdeckung der Grundlast. Tata Mundra ist das erste Ultra Mega Power Plant (UMPP) in Indien. Bei einem UMPP handelt es sich um ein Kohlekraftwerk mit einer Kapazität von rund 4 GW, das superkritische Technologie verwendet (englisch supercritical: siehe Überkritisches Wasser). Das Kraftwerk ist im Besitz der Tata Power Company Ltd., wird aber von Coastal Gujarat Power Limited (CGPL), einer Tochter von Tata Power betrieben. Die Kosten für Tata Mundra beliefen sich auf 4,2 Milliarden US-Dollar. Kraftwerksblöcke Das Kraftwerk besteht aus fünf Blöcken mit jeweils maximal 800 MW Leistung. Die Kessel der Blöcke wurden von Doosan geliefert, die Turbinen und Generatoren dafür stammen von Toshiba. Die Blöcke gingen nacheinander im Februar, Juli und Oktober 2012 sowie Januar und März 2013 in Betrieb. Dem Kraftwerk angeschlossen sind Anlagen zur Meerwasserentsalzung, die 25.200 m³ Meerwasser am Tag aufbereiten können. Sie verwenden Umkehrosmose für den Entsalzungsprozess. Umwelt Das Kraftwerk wird für die Zerstörung der Existenzgrundlage der lokalen Bevölkerung verantwortlich gemacht. Sonstiges Das Kraftwerk benötigt zwischen 10 und 12 Mio. t Kohle im Jahr, die per Schiff aus Indonesien in den von der Firma Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Limited (APSEZ) betriebenen Kohlehafen in Mundra angeliefert wird. Tata Power hat sich an Kohlebergwerken in Indonesien beteiligt, um die Versorgung sicherzustellen. Die Kosten der importierten Kohle sind aufgrund geänderter indonesischer Exportrichtlinien aber gestiegen, so dass das Kraftwerk bei dem Strompreis, der zum Zeitpunkt der Vergabe festgelegt wurde, nicht mehr rentabel betrieben werden kann. Tata Power bot ursprünglich einen Preis von 2,26 Rs pro kWh für die nächsten 25 Jahre an, um den Zuschlag zu erhalten. Die Mehrkosten beziffert Tata Power auf 0,67 Rs pro kWh und ist deshalb in Verhandlungen mit der Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC), um den Preis anzupassen. Es wurden sechs 400-kV-Leitungen gebaut, um das Kraftwerk mit dem indischen Stromnetz zu verbinden. Tata Power hat Verträge mit den Bundesstaaten Gujarat (1.805 MW), Punjab (475 MW), Rajasthan (380 MW), Maharashtra (760 MW) und Haryana (380 MW), die den Strom abnehmen. In unmittelbarer Nähe befindet sich ein weiteres Kohlekraftwerk, das Kraftwerk Mundra, welches von Adani Power betrieben wird. Weblinks Daten zu Tata Mundra (engl.)

Sarkhej Rauza

Sarkhej Rauza oder Sarkhej Roza ist ein muslimischer Mausoleumskomplex mit einer später hinzugefügten Moschee im Dorf Makarba ca. 8 km südwestlich von Ahmedabad im indischen Bundesstaat Gujarat. Der Komplex ist aufgrund von Le Corbusiers Vergleich des Moschee-Designs mit der Akropolis von Athen bekannt als „Akropolis von Ahmedabad“. Geschichte Obwohl es viele Grabbauten in Gujarat gibt, ist die Sarkhej Rauza die am stärksten verehrte. Sarkhej war einst ein prominentes Zentrum des Sufismus im Land, wo der einflussreiche Scheich Ahmed Gandj Baksh († 1445) lebte. Auf den Vorschlag des angeblich über 100 Jahre alten Mannes hin ließ Sultan Ahmed Shah (reg. 1411–1443) seine neue Hauptstadt Ahmedabad am Ufer des Sabarmati, ein paar Meilen entfernt von Sarkhej, errichten. Sultan Mahmud Begada (regierte 1458–1511) stiftete eine Moschee und ließ sich hier bestatten. Architektur Die Bauten in Sarkhej Rauza stammen nahezu ausnahmslos aus der Zeit des Sultanats von Gujarat – also aus der Vormogulzeit; sie sind jedoch deutlich eleganter und insgesamt palastähnlicher als die Grabbauten der etwa gleichzeitig in Delhi herrschenden Lodi-Dynastie und selbst der ab 1526 dominierenden frühen Großmoguln. Eine große Rolle spielen kunstvoll und abwechslungsreich durchbrochene Jali-Gitter.
