Tested Jio WiFi calling on Samsung Galaxy on7 pro

Yesterday I was at the basement of Supertech Emerald Court in the Grocery Store where I was trying to pay through paytm. The Jio Network was not working and call also did not work through VoLTE. The Grocery Store had Wi-Fi and I requested its password. After connecting to Wi-Fi I could pay through paytm and also call my wife using WiFi calling feature.

I went at site to review progress of missing pink line of Delhi Metro

I had written about Trilokpuri Block 15 on my previous post where there is missing link of Delhi Metro pink line on 13 APR 2019. Subsequently there was news item in July/Aug 2019 that DMRC had allotted flats for resettlement of project affected people and tenders were floated for the construction work by DMRC in Sep 2019. The missing line is supposed to start in Sep 2020.

I am interested in completion of missing pink line since it will connect my neighborhood metro station Mandawali West Vinod Nagar to south Delhi ring road stations.

To day I visited the site to review the progress of work. From Mandawali West Vinod Nagar I went to Trilokpuri Sanjay Lake by metro. Then I started walking towards Trilokpuri Block 15. I found following flats constructed by DMRC just opposite to Trilokpuri Block 15.
I saw many people in most of the Balconies and I asked one fruit vendor outside whether the people have shifted in the flats and he said yes. Then I asked why there is no demolition in Trilokpuri Block 15 and he said that demolition was in progress from Mayur Vihar Pocket 1 end.

I started walking towards Mayur Vihar pocket 1 and found some buildings demolished and work going on. I saw one Mosque behind the demolished building and asked the Supervisor whether the Mosque would be retained. He said yes, the line is going to pass from right side of the mosque.

I walked to Mayur Vihar Pocket 1 station and boarded pink line, changed at next station to blue line and got down at Akshardham.
