The court said it is very disturbing that the rules are not being followed.The bench also asked additional solicitor general Vikramjit Banerjee, representing Centre, to explore possibility of installing these devices at the time of manufacturing of vehicles. It asked Centre to hold a meeting with automobile manufacturers and make a final decision in this regard. It also directed states to ensure compliance with Rule 118 for installing speed-limiting devices.Given low compliance with rule regarding VLTDs, road transport ministry has made installation and functioning of location-tracking devices mandatory for registration and renewal of registration of public service vehicles from April 1. National permits of trucks are renewed only when installation of VLTD is reflected on Vahan portal.Meanwhile, 27 states and UTs have set up monitoring centres to track such vehicles, and Centre will soon set up a mechanism for monitoring at national level.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosCongress Claims Assam FIR Row Is Linked To Questions Over Himanta Sarma Assets | WatchCBI Arrests Five In NEET-UG 2026 Paper Leak Case As Probe Expands Nationwide | WatchEx-Army Chief Naravane Backs People-To-People Ties To Improve India Pak RelationsAir India Cuts 29 International Routes As West Asia War Drives Up Fuel Costs And DisruptionsVijay Reverses Astrologer Appointment; PM Modi Orders Nearly 50% Convoy | Headlines@9EPS Removes Rebel Leaders Backing Vijay Government As AIADMK Internal Crisis DeepensPostmortem Reveals Massive Blood Clot In Lungs Caused Prateek Yadav’s Death | WatchHimanta Biswa Sarma Announces UCC Bill For Assam As State Moves Towards Uniform Civil LawNEET UG 2026 Cancellation Sparks Rajasthan Political Storm As BJP And Congress Clash Over LeakPosters Against Rahul Gandhi Surface As KC Venugopal Emerges Frontrunner For Kerala CM123PhotostoriesAlia Bhatt stuns in an icy blue gown at Cannes 2026; fashion fans say, “Elsa who?”Inside 15 years of Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales’s most talked-about royal looksFigs are more powerful than you think: Here’s what happens when you eat them regularly and how to eat it properlyStop throwing away mango peel: 6 delicious ways to use them in your kitchen5 weird things people do in love and why, as per psychologyWhy these 5 vegetable DIY remedies are harmful for your skin8 Indian states where women can travel free on government buses; West Bengal becomes the latest to join the list5 deadliest insects on the planet: Small creatures with a massive global impactThe silent vitamin deficiency experts say could increase your cancer risk over timeCommon snakes found in Florida and how to keep them away from home and garden123Hot PicksCBSE class 12 resultUS Iran warPrateek YadavHaryana election resultForeign outflowNEET exam cancelledTamil Nadu assemblyTop TrendingNashik AstrologerTamil Nadu NewsIPL Points TablePM Internship SchemeIPL Match TodayHimanta Biswa SarmaIPL Orange Cap 2026Aparna YadavAir India FlightsPrateek Yadav May 14, 2026, 00:09 IST Quote of the day by American philosopher and psychologist William James: “Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.” Shefali Jariwala Death: Parag Tyagi breaks silence on rumours around Shefali Jariwala’s death: ‘If anti-ageing injections existed, everyone would take them’ | Hindi Movie News Nashik: Bird flu infections continue to spread in Navapur, with samples from two more poultry farms testing positive, prompting authorities to initiate fresh culling operations and expand surveillance beyond previously identified epicentres.Dr Sanjay Khachane, the district deputy commissioner of the animal husbandry department, said the latest detections indicate the infection has spread outside earlier containment zones.”The department had carried out the surveillance of the poultry farms beyond the epicentres that involved two different sets of poultry farms. Samples from them were sent to the laboratory, where those from two farms in different areas tested positive. This is the third set of farms, and both farms are beyond the infected zones surrounding the earlier farms. This means that the infection is still rising,” he said.Authorities have now declared the two farms as new epicentres and launched a re-survey of poultry units in surrounding areas. Birds within the affected perimeters will be culled to contain the spread.”Currently, the number of birds to be culled is around 50,000 in both farms. The survey will establish the exact number of farms and the birds,” Khachane said.In the first outbreak, birds in nine farms across three epicentres were culled. In the second phase, four farms across three epicentres were affected. In the latest instance, two new epicentres have emerged, indicating the infection has spread beyond the 1km radius of previously affected zones.So far, around 3.9 lakh birds have been culled, while 21.6 lakh eggs and 4.99 lakh tonnes of feed have been destroyed by Rapid Reaction Teams engaged in containment efforts. Officials said the latest culling operations at the newly identified farms will begin on Thursday as part of intensified measures to control the outbreak.Despite the decline, Navapur remains a critical food artery. About 12 lakh layer birds currently produce an estimated 10 lakh eggs daily.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosCongress Claims Assam FIR Row Is Linked To Questions Over Himanta Sarma Assets | WatchCBI Arrests Five In NEET-UG 2026 Paper Leak Case As Probe Expands Nationwide | WatchEx-Army Chief Naravane Backs People-To-People Ties To Improve India Pak RelationsAir India Cuts 29 International Routes As West Asia War Drives Up Fuel Costs And DisruptionsVijay Reverses Astrologer Appointment; PM Modi Orders Nearly 50% Convoy | Headlines@9EPS Removes Rebel Leaders Backing Vijay Government As AIADMK Internal Crisis DeepensPostmortem Reveals Massive Blood Clot In Lungs Caused Prateek Yadav’s Death | WatchHimanta Biswa Sarma Announces UCC Bill For Assam As State Moves Towards Uniform Civil LawNEET UG 2026 Cancellation Sparks Rajasthan Political Storm As BJP And Congress Clash Over LeakPosters Against Rahul Gandhi Surface As KC Venugopal Emerges Frontrunner For Kerala CM123PhotostoriesAlia Bhatt stuns in an icy blue gown at Cannes 2026; fashion fans say, “Elsa who?”Inside 15 years of Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales’s most talked-about royal looksFigs are more powerful than you think: Here’s what happens when you eat them regularly and how to eat it properlyStop throwing away mango peel: 6 delicious ways to use them in your kitchen5 weird things people do in love and why, as per psychologyWhy these 5 vegetable DIY remedies are harmful for your skin8 Indian states where women can travel free on government buses; West Bengal becomes the latest to join the list5 deadliest insects on the planet: Small creatures with a massive global impactThe silent vitamin deficiency experts say could increase your cancer risk over timeCommon snakes found in Florida and how to keep them away from home and garden123Hot PicksCBSE class 12 resultUS Iran warPrateek YadavHaryana election resultForeign outflowNEET exam cancelledTamil Nadu assemblyTop TrendingNashik AstrologerTamil Nadu NewsIPL Points TablePM Internship SchemeIPL Match TodayHimanta Biswa SarmaIPL Orange Cap 2026Aparna YadavAir India FlightsPrateek Yadav
