Punjab Bets on Modern Geo-Tube Barrier to Tackle Sutlej Flood Threat, Locals Await Final Protective Layer

Ludhiana (Gurpreet Singh): With memories of last year's devastating floods still fresh, Punjab has turned to advanced engineering to strengthen flood defences along the Sutlej River. A geo-tube embankment is being developed in Ludhiana's Sasrali region, marking the state's first use of the technology for riverbank protection. The project is being implemented after a stretch of the existing embankment was breached during the 2025 monsoon, exposing nearby villages to floodwaters.

Metro Vancouver Governance Reform Moves Ahead as Committee Backs Board Size Cap

Vancouver (Rajeev Sharma): A proposal to reduce the size of Metro Vancouver’s Board of Directors has cleared a key hurdle after the regional district’s Governance Committee endorsed a recommendation to limit the number of directors each municipality can appoint. The proposal, initiated by Delta Councillor Dylan Kruger, will now be placed before the full Metro Vancouver Board for consideration. If adopted, municipalities would be restricted to appointing a maximum of three directors, while the existing weighted voting system based on population would remain unchanged. The recommendation is part of a broader governance reform effort launched last year, when Kruger introduced…
