The upcoming mussoorie sky car ropeway will drastically cut travel time between Dehradun and Mussoorie to just 20 minutes. This 5.2-kilometer, eco-friendly project, slated to open in 2026, will offer panoramic views and reduce traffic congestion. Built to European safety standards, the ropeway will carry 1,300 people per hour, promoting sustainable tourism and local job creation.

A consortium led by FIL Industries has begun work on the Dehradun Mussoorie Ropeway Project (DMRP) in India, which will be the country's longest ropeway at 5.5 km. The ropeway, expected to be completed by September 2026, will connect the cities of Dehradun and Mussoorie, reducing travel time from 1.5 hours to 15 minutes. The project, costing Rs 300 crore, will feature 10-seater diamond cabins capable of carrying 1,300 passengers per hour. It will serve both tourism and urban mobility purposes.

The clear blue skies of Mussoorie and Nainital have over the past few days been drawing people from Delhi and NCR who are desperate to escape the smog-induced pollution plaguing their area

The star who is currently in Mussoorie with his wife Kajol, two children and a big shooting crew is definitely getting a lot of blessings, thanks to the employment generation locally

For travel freaks, the mantra is ‘when in doubt, vacation’. But for many Gurgaonwallahs, a quick vacation is now not a matter of luxury, but a necessity. The smog that has been covering NCR since Diwali has people concerned for their health and many are running off to hill stations in search of some fresh air.

It’s just another day in author Ruskin Bond’s life. Or at least that is how he likes to put it. So even when he turns 81, Bond, the much loved author, wants to continue doing what he does best — tell stories through his pen. “Age is all in the mind,” he says. “I don’t feel any different. So, yes, no grand plans as such.”

Our young workers don’t believe in changing the high life that Gurgaon ‘demands’. So what if paycheques with a first job are a pittance?
