Telangana Government to introduce Core Urban Act

Telangana Government to introduce Core Urban Act


Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has asked the officials to prepare a Core Urban Act to govern the three Municipal Corporations of GHMC, Malkajgiri and Cyberabad Municipal Corporations in the Outer Ring Road (ORR) limits. The new Core Urban Act will replace the existing GHMC Act. 

“All permissions, fee structure, and development works should be finalised as per the proposed new Core Urban Act,” he said.

At a high-level review of the Municipal Administration and Urban Development in the Secretariat on Friday evening, the Chief Minister said that sanitation and cleanliness should be prioritised in the Core Urban area (CURE).

CURE is one of the three geography-focussed themes in the Telangana Rising Vision 20247 document. While CURE would focus on the Capital region, PURE and RARE would handle the developmental programmes in the peri-urban and rural areas.

The CM instructed the authorities to identify suitable locations and make arrangements for garbage dumping in the wake of people throwing waste in open places, causing inconvenience to locals, in CURE areas.

During the review, CM Revanth Reddy asserted that special attention should be paid to road construction in the core urban area.

To ensure proper maintenance of the roads, the Chief Minister directed the officials of Roads and Building department to transfer all roads under their control in the CURE area to the Municipal Administration and Urban Development department to avoid confusion in their maintenance.

Reviewing the progress of the works of the new government buildings within the limits of Bharat Future City, the Chief Minister instructed officials to complete the works before the deadline.

US markets regulator SEC announces new insider trading rules for foreign companies

US markets regulator SEC announces new insider trading rules for foreign companies

The US Securities and Exchange Commission announced new insider trade rules on Friday for executives in non-US companies who buy or sell stock in their firms.

The SEC’s rules require executives and officers to quickly reveal when they scoop up or dump shares, a disclosure meant to deter people from using non-public information to cash in on well-timed trades. The requirements, which will take effect March 18, will be mostly in line with those faced by executives in American companies that require reporting within two business days.

The regulations apply to what the SEC labels foreign private issuers, companies based overseas with certain shares that trade in the US but also have certain breaks on US disclosure and reporting requirements. The agency was required to draft the rules under a law that Congress passed last year. 

Some academics and lawmakers have decried a lack of disclosure as opening the door to unfair, opportunistic trading. “These requirements will align the reporting obligations of foreign executives with those of US executives,” SEC Chairman Paul Atkins said in a statement. 

So-called beneficial owners, those who own more than 10 per cent of stocks in a company, will not be required to report under the new regulations, according to the SEC.

Some compliance questions remain, such as the part of the law that recognises some overseas jurisdictions may already impose similar executive reporting requirements to the US. The law gives the SEC the authority to carve out exceptions for individuals, securities or transactions, the SEC said Friday.
