In a European makeover, the <keyword id="180135" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="New-Delhi-Municipal-Corporation">New Delhi Municipal Corporation</keyword> (<keyword id="6373991" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="NDMC">NDMC</keyword>) backed by the <keyword id="6696781" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Urban-development-ministry">Urban Development ministry</keyword> has plans to make the inner circle of the much famed Connaught Place (CP) car free for a month. This is just a trial project for a few months, NDMC has claimed earlier. 
 
 
The inner circle of CP is lined with numerous good places to eat, drink and be merry. Apart from that, there are tons of fashion outlets by several international brands. India’s one of the most expensive office place records more than 5 lakh visitors every day. While going car free is a welcome move, but given too many hurdles in implementing is something that needs special focus. 
 
While NDMC has plans to introduce battery operated rickshaws and rented bicycles for the daily commuters, and parking spots in the outer circle, many experts feel this may give way to maximum chaos. 
 
According to the New Delhi Traders’ Association, who has signed a petition to the ministry has noted that this will not only drop the economic activity in the area but also will result in loss of jobs as well. 
 
Here are the issues that still haven’t been answered: 
 
British architecture According to restaurateur <keyword id="138484" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Priyank-Sukhija">Priyank Sukhija</keyword> , who owns a lot of <keyword id="117643" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="FB">F&amp;B</keyword> places in Delhi, “CP has a 14 feet long pedestrian walking space plus the footpath. And then car park space. It's already pedestrian friendly. The britishers created it with a lot of planning. It has no red lights and traffic however slow is moving because of so many exits.” 
 
Lack of facilities In a long post on Facebook, <keyword id="3935269" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="sukhija">Sukhija</keyword> also said, “CP is not wheelchair friendly and old citizens. Some of them who are traders won't be able to walk this much every day.” 
 
Security issue “Sukhija also pointed out that there is a lack of adequate parking space in outer circle or <keyword id="8859" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Shivaji">Shivaji</keyword> stadium and <keyword id="1303348" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Palika">Palika</keyword> parking. People walking to the Shivaji stadium late in the night might be teased or robbed,” concluded Sukhija. 
Most people who frequent CP often return home late at night, and parking far from inner circle would require implementing more security along the roads. 
 Sikha Nandini, a designer by profession staying at <keyword id="6361054" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="South-Delhi">South Delhi</keyword> and having her boutique in inner circle told <keyword id="824043" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Business-Insider">Business Insider</keyword>,” I don’t know how it is planned! Most days I return at 10:30PM on cabs. Now walking to the outer circle everyday at that hour isn’t a sane idea.”

Connaught Place inner circle is becoming a car free zone. Be
prepared for the mess

The recent execution of the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/1-million-people-to-lose-job-inindia-blame-drunken-driving-for-it/articleshow/57971679.cms">Supreme Court’s judgement</a> on putting a ban on alcohol sales within 500 metres of national and state highways has been made effective since April 1. 
 However, at this point, the people who are at stake belong to the business of hospitality. In most cities across India, there are star hotels on the highways, strategically located for better connectivity and luxury of space. In the metro cities like Delhi, Mumbai, <keyword id="6354321" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bengaluru">Bengaluru</keyword>, Chennai and other cities like <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/1-million-people-to-lose-job-inindia-blame-drunken-driving-for-it/articleshow/57971679.cms">Chandigarh, Jaipur and Lucknow </a>invite a lot of tourists both domestic and foreign because of their hospitality infrastructure. Most hotels lined up on the highways have a bar to make sure the guests are taken care of. While the argument of whether alcohol is the a decent way to enjoyment is a different argument, but the fact that can’t be denied is alcohol helps the economy of the state to profit way better than other luxury, thanks to high excise duty. 
 
Even if that isn’t enough to back up the logic on <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/1-million-people-to-lose-job-inindia-blame-drunken-driving-for-it/articleshow/57971679.cms">importance of alcohol</a>, what’s far more serious is loss of jobs. About one million people would be chucked out from their jobs. In a country where engineering graduates line up for Grade 4 rank jobs in the government, such is the scarcity of openings; getting fired from jobs for a court order is abominable. 
 
While the government should have enforced better vigilance and made stricter punishments to curb on drunken driving, this verdict is more like uprooting a whole tree because one branch of it was interfering with the electrical wires. 
 Serial entrepreneur and a renowned name in the hospitality industry, <keyword id="138484" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Priyank-Sukhija">Priyank Sukhija</keyword>, recently mentioned on a <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/1-million-people-to-lose-job-inindia-blame-drunken-driving-for-it/articleshow/57971679.cms">Facebook post</a>, “Last month had to painfully say goodbye to 85 staff members because of the sealing of rooftops in CP which the <keyword id="6373991" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="NDMC">NDMC</keyword> has no consideration for ... ruining the most epic hub in the country ! This month it would be more than 100 after the 500 metre ban.” 
 Even Amitabh <keyword id="287016" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kant">Kant</keyword>, CEO of NITI Aayog is equally vocal about the crisis. In one of his recent tweets, Kant wrote,” TOURISM creates jobs. Why kill it? SC's highway liquor ban verdict may hit one million jobs.”

Supreme Court’s decision of banning alcohol on the highways
doesn’t make much sense and is quite harmful. Here’s why

Ideas can strike you anywhere and anytime. For <keyword id="3223251" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Kanchan-Sukhija">Kanchan Sukhija</keyword>, it was when she bought a phone online as a gift to her mother on her birthday. On the same evening when she met her friend Vivek Agarwal, she found to her utter surprise that the same phone was Rs. 1000 cheaper on another website and if she had put a little more effort and visited few more sites she could earn cash back as well. This became a point of discussion that evening and a reason for the existence of comparemunafa. 

	“We wanted to create a one stop solution frontline shopping,” said Kanchan, co-founder of comparemunafa.
 Thus began her <keyword id="6374782" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="journey">journey</keyword> as an entrepreneur from 2015. 

	“At comparemunafa.com, we wanted to create an ecosystem, which offers a complete, inclusive and seamless shopping experience, saves time and effort while earning munafa with every purchase,” she said.
 They have affiliate partnership with <keyword id="6354742" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Flipkart">Flipkart</keyword> ,Snapdeal, Amazon, Jabong, Paytmetc ; in total we have 200+ stores and 10,000+ deals and offers available for customers to choose from. 

	With her passion and dedication, within one year she bagged the ‘Entrepreneur of the year award 2016’, given by Youth Pathshala award every year on Swami Vivekananda’s birthday to young achievers.
 

	Kanchan is a self-learner, highly determined young woman entrepreneur. She believes that there is no end of learning, thus takes inspiration from everyone and everything around her. She believes that an investment in Knowledge pays the best interest. It is a gift that no one can take away and every child born in this country deserves this gift. This affirms her association with SUIT NGO as a Treasurer, which works towards upliftment of Underprivileged Children.
 Being a women entrepreneur in India is not an easy task. Convincing people to come work under a woman is one of the most difficult tasks for a startup founder. But she did well. And, with the <keyword id="3003094" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Startup-India">Startup India</keyword> initiative, she feels it would become lot more easier for ideas to become a foundation. 

	The start-up ecosystem especially in the e-commerce industry is very different from any other traditional business. There is ambiguity in the policy guidelines that presently governs it. In my view, making exits easier for startups is an important announcement, she added.
 “Other announcements relating to the ease of starting up through a simple form filled on an app, self-certification clause, and tax reliefs are good steps. I like the idea of providing help to startups in assessing and filing patents. I also appreciate the idea of <keyword id="6357455" type="EVENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="Funding">funding</keyword> support to set up incubators across India with private-public partnership.” 

	Lastly, during our chit chat, she also gave some funding tips for budding start-ups. 
 

	“The best way is to develop financial projections that are rooted in verifiable assumptions. Entrepreneurs often feel that they are compelled to exaggerate projections to look like their businesses can reach a billion dollars of market value in a few years. There's no point in a set of projections that aren't based on reality. One way to build a set of realistic projections is to start with business drivers that can be discussed and debated with investors,” she concluded.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>A Los Angeles judge dismissed an abuse lawsuit filed against shock rocker <keyword id="11959371" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="marilyn-manson" source="Orion">Marilyn Manson</keyword>.</li><li>Ashley Walters, his former assistant, had filed two complaints against Manson over the last year.</li></ul>A Los Angeles judge dismissed former Marilyn Manson assistant Ashley Walters' amended abuse and wrongful termination lawsuit on Wednesday, citing "too few facts," and claims beyond the statute of limitations.Walters, who was Manson's assistant between 2010 to 2011, initially sued the artist over alleged sexual harassment, abuse, sexual battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress and wrongful termination in May 2021, <a href="https://deadline.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/marilyn-manson-sexual-harassment-may-18-2021.pdf">according to court documents.</a>On Wednesday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael L. Stern said that "plaintiff has plead too few facts too keep this case in court, and too late," and dismissed the case with prejudice, which means Walters cannot sue Manson over the same allegations in the future.Walters' attorney Tanya Sukhija-Cohen claimed in court that her client "couldn't exercise her claims because she was unaware they occurred until the memories came back," during a support group meeting with other women who have alleged Manson abused them. Sukhija-Cohen added that the alleged threats that Walters experienced were not "materially different," than ones "Game of Thrones" actor Esme Bianco has alleged in her sexual abuse lawsuit against Manson.Manson's attorney Gene Williams, said that the amended suit relied on "a contradiction they can't get out of, where the same incidents she didn't recall dissuaded her from filing."In her lawsuits, Walters accused Manson of forcing her to work for two days straight, during which she says she feared Manson's frequent violent and angry outbursts. Walters had filed an amended lawsuit on March 11 after Stern <a href="https://www.insider.com/judge-marilyn-manson-ex-assistant-to-amend-sexual-harassment-suit-2022-3">called into question the timeline</a> of her allegations in relation to the existing two-year statute of limitations.Walters accused Manson of pushing her onto his "influential industry friends and associates," including an actor who forcefully kissed her in September 2010. She also claimed that Manson harassed her by forcefully kissing her.Attorneys representing Walters from Valli Kane &amp; Vagnini LLP and Hadsell Stormer Renick &amp; Dai LLP told Insider they were "deeply disappointed," in the case's dismissal and indicated that they will appeal the decision."If allowed to stand, this decision would drastically limit the ability of victims of abuse to obtain justice through the legal system," the attorneys said in the statement. "While the court based its decision on the timeliness of Ashley's claims and not the merits, we disagree with the court's interpretation of the law as it applies to equitable estoppel and the delayed filing of abuse claims."In an emailed statement, Ashley Walters told Insider that "Nobody gets to choose exactly how they process abuse or threats.""I am disheartened in the court's decision today not just for my case, but for the message it sends to other survivors out there trying to balance how they process abuse with arbitrary court deadlines," Walters said in the statement. "We will not let this hurdle stop us from shining a light on what happened to me and others."Manson's team denied all of the allegations in both of Walters' lawsuits and asked a judge in April to dismiss her claims without an opportunity to file another amended complaint.Attorneys representing Manson did not immediately return Insider's request for comment. If you are a survivor of sexual assault, you can call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 800.656.HOPE (4673) or visit <a href="https://hotline.rainn.org/online">their website</a> to receive confidential support.

Twenty one people were arrested for <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=visa+fraud&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">visa fraud</a> in the US out of which 10 were <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=indian+americans&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Indian-Americans</a>. The US authorities had created a <keyword id="3312886" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="fake-university">fake university</keyword> as a part of a sting operation to expose the <keyword id="581841" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="visa-scam">visa scam</keyword>. 
 
The federal authorities arrested 21 people in <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=new+york&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">New York</a>, New Jersey, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=washington&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Washington</a> and Virginia. 
 
According to reports, majority of students who received necessary visa and permits for US during the sting operation who reportedly paid huge sums of money were from India. 
 
"These defendants arranged to obtain visas by having individuals enroll in a fake university. Unfortunately for them, that fake university was run by undercover agents of the Department of Homeland Security," Paul J Fishman, US Attorney for New Jersey, told reporters. 
 
The arrested people were brokers, recruiters and employers who unlawfully and fraudulently obtained or attempted to obtain student visas and foreign worker visas for approximately 1,000 foreign nationals from 26 countries. 
 
Officials, however, did not give the number of Indian students who were trapped by this year-long sting operation done by immigration and law enforcement authorities. 
 
While the US Government did not reveal the nationality of the arrested people, names released by authorities indicate that 10 of them are either Indians or of Indian-origin. 
 
Those name include: Tajesh Kodali, Jyoti Patel, Shahjadi M Parvin, Narendra Singh Plaha, Sanjeev Sukhija, Harpreet Sachdeva, Avinash Shankar, Karthik Nimmala, Govardhan Dyavarashetty and Syed Qasim Abbas.

Lord of the Drinks is undoubtedly is a touchstone of pub cult in the capital. With three outlets spread over Delhi NCR, Lord of the Drinks is a Priyank Sukhija concept and you don’t need to bother about ambience, innovation and cost too much because that’s the best thing about his ventures, where everything is taken care of. 
 
 
 At <keyword id="824043" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Business-Insider">Business Insider</keyword>, we have reviewed the Lord of the Drinks (LOTD) <keyword id="23897" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="forum">Forum</keyword> at <keyword id="4803566" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="nehru-place-epicuria">Nehru Place Epicuria</keyword> and <keyword id="4803568" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="barrel-house">Barrel House</keyword> outlet in <keyword id="2804351" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Guragon">Guragon</keyword> Sector 29. Well to our surprise, both these places have a different ambience and feel except for the common menu. 
 
Forum is more like a place where you would ask your first date to meet. There is a lot of light and darkness playing around and also they have an open area for smoking, which can also be used for dining if you don’t like loud music. Barrel House at Sector 29 is much like hangout place for friends and colleagues. 
 <keyword id="4803570" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="lotd-barrel-house">LOTD Barrel House</keyword> wears a quirky theme with skull sketches. Right from the plates to the decor, there is a lot of bright shades and quirky elements. And even the drinks aren’t spared. 
 When the <keyword id="4803569" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="vodka-curry-aam-panna">Vodka Curry Aam Panna</keyword> arrived, we could spot a lot of drama already. The cream foam on the top has been infused with <keyword id="6368690" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mango">mango</keyword> and can be had with spoon. The vodka lied under the cream and has been infused with Mango Panna giving it a distinct taste. 
 
 
 We tried Butter Beer as well. The concoction of <keyword id="4803567" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="vanilla-vodka">Vanilla Vodka</keyword>, honey, whiskey, egg white and apple juice doesn’t really taste like beer but far better. The Barrel House outlet also offers a range of freshly brewed beers to choose from. 
 
From the food point of view, LOTD performed really well. Some dishes have hint of whiskey, vodka or wine in them as well. We tried the Vodka and Chilli Spiked Prawn, which is one of the signatures. Unlike many other places, here the vodka flavour isn’t overpowering, but you get a certain hint. 
 
 
 You can definitely munch on chipotle prawns, chicken wings, herb infused fish, seasame chilli lamb, but don’t miss out on the butter chicken risotto and <keyword id="4803571" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="china-bento">China Bento</keyword> box. While the butter chicken risotto is an amazing fusion where you can really get the taste of risotto and a very subtle hint of butter chicken flavour, the chicken bento box is perfectly curated for people on the go. The Bento Box is pocket friendly and contains fried rice, dim sum and stir fried chicken. 
 
While LOTD is generally seen as more of casual drinking place, we would recommend it as more of a place to satiate your tastebuds with good food.

Entrepreneurs are a different breed of human species altogether. We mean, who on earth would want to quit their bean bag jobs at Google to start their own restaurants in India. Well, there’s one such entrepreneur who did exactly that! 
 
Meet the 28 year old Vivek Bhargava, who quit his fat paycheck at one of the greatest workplaces in the world, to start his own venture. But hey! This guy wasn’t sure if he wanted to get into the fine dining business at all. In fact, he wasn’t thinking of it. But like they say, destiny had some other plans. 
 “After quitting my job at Google, I first started my own advertising agency and worked on some of the campaigns for Airtel. Eventually, one of my friends asked me to create some campaigns for his restaurant in Haus Khas Village. He introduced me to Priyank Sukhija (who runs 23 restaurants in Delhi NCR, some of which include <keyword id="3323387" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Fat-Ninja">Fat Ninja</keyword>, <keyword id="3323386" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="OTB">OTB</keyword>, Fork You and Raas among others) to do their marketing and advertising. And that’s how I took interest in the segment. And eventually turned into one with my first restaurant—Lights, Camera and Action in West Delhi,” says the young restaurateur. 
 
So, how did he meet Manish Sharma, the founder of Yuvi Hospitality,who has also been operating the Pink Room in Haus Khas Village? 
 “Well, Akshay, who is also a restaurateur, introduced me to Manish and together we founded Yuvi Hospitality. Under Yuvi Hospitality, we launched <keyword id="412043" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="molecule">Molecule</keyword> in Gurgaon (err, Gurugram),” adds Bhargava. 
 
BI India lists down his restaurants and how they have taken on the who’s who of the fine dining segment. 
 
Molecule 
 
 
 
This US-German themed restaurant in Sector 29 Gurgaon is quite different. The restaurant is a first in itself to have German brewery along with the molecular gastronomy experience in India.​ 
 
Imly 
 
 
 
This one is a new and challenges the iconic Haldirams and Bikaner in Indian snack segment. A train shaped restaurant, this place boasts of authentic (truly authentic) Indian food.

An ode to the glamour world of entertainment, the walls of this themed restaurant are adorned by the famous dialogues of cult Hindi movies. A must for all movie buffs.
