Bansal, Bahl tug of war comes to fore
Chandigarh, April 14 While Mr Bahl flaunted his proximity with the Defence Minister by organising a lunch at Hotel President, Bansal supporters chose to show strength at the airport by giving an impressive reception to Mr Mukherjee. Prominent Bansal supporters Harmohinder Singh Lucky, Pawan
Sharma and D.D. Jindal led a group that gathered to welcome the Defence Minister. They shouted slogans in favour of
Mr Mukherjee and Mr Bansal. The Bahl-led group again chose to support the Administrator, Gen S. F. Rodgrigues (retd), and Deputy Commissioner Arun Kumar much to the chagrin of Mr Bansal-led group which had complained to the Prime
Minister Dr Manmohan Singh against the two yesterday. The Bahl-led group for the second day in succession took a stand diametrically opposite to the MP. Mr Bansal and his supporters chose to absent themselves from the
lunch hosted by Mr Bahl at his hotel. Mr Chandermukhi Sharma, a close associate of Manish Tiwari, Mr Sunil Parti, a Venod Sharma man, Mr J. N. Shukla, NSUI chairman Mr Vineet Goel, labour cell president, Mr B. P. Bhargawa and human rights cell chairman Bimal Bitta reportedly told Mr Mukherjee that the Deputy Commissioner was honest and should not be shifted. They also praised General Rodrigues. Party insiders, however, see the division in the party as an effort to
control the party, which will see local unit president’s election within a month or so. Bansal backers say that the MP is now unchallenged in the city after
Mr Venod Sharma shifted to Haryana and Mr Manish Tiwari is eyeing the presidentship of the Congress in Punjab.

Organisers caught
napping as crowd
Chandigarh, April 14 The English Auditorium, with a capacity for 300 people, was the venue for the oration. But more than 400 persons, including the local Congress party workers, students, faculty and the guests hunted for seats at the venue. Even the local MP, Mr Pawan Kumar Bansal, had to struggle to find a place to sit in the jampacked auditorium. “Polite requests'' of the organisers to vacate the seats for the “more important guests,'' too fell on deaf ears and hoards of people kept standing on either side of the auditorium to catch a glimpse of Defence Minister, chairperson of the AICC Ambika Soni and Deputy CM of Punjab Rajinder Kaur Bhattal. To manage the spill over, the organisers then opened the adjoining evening studies' auditorium to accommodate more than 100 persons, mostly students, where the oration was shown live on projection screen. Mr Manish Tewari, son of Dr V. N. Tewari who was assassinated in 1984 and in whose memory the oration is organised every year, apologised for the
inconvenience caused due to unexpected response.

Panjab University to have Centre
Chandigarh, April 14 The opening of UCFV's campus will be in addition to the establishment of the Canadian Studies Centre at Panjab University which will promote academic exchange and joint research projects between India and Canada. The need to set up the centre emerged from the fact that 20 per cent of Canada's population is of Indian, particularly Punjabi descent. Also, the idea is to raise skilled workers for Canada which has an increasingly ageing workforce. Giving away the information regarding setting up of the Centre and the UCFV campus today, Mr H.A. Bassford, President of the UCFV, said the establishment of Centre for Canadian Studies was a follow up of the MoU which the UCFV had signed with Panjab University in November, 2004. The MoU, it may be recalled, was signed to formalise collaboration efforts in the areas of research and faculty exchange. These two key areas will be covered by the Centre which is slated to perform the same role which the Centre for Indo-Canadian Studies and Research located on UCFV's Abbotsford campus in Canada is performing. Mr Bassford said, "The activities of the centre will include assisting entrepreneurs to open new markets in India, transferring knowledge in information technology, media, biotechnology and agriculture, integrating immigrants into Canadian culture and researching history of India, specifically of Punjab." These researches will then be used to incorporate Indian studies in curricula being offered in Canada. "The young generation of Indians settled in Canada feels out of touch with their heritage. That's why we are integrating Indian studies in our educational institutions," said Mr Bassford, while announcing that he would formally hand over Rs 10 lakh raised by the Indian community to initially facilitate the setting up of the centre at PU. The handing over will take place at the Law Auditorium, PU, on April 16 - the day when UCFV professors will make presentations about the courses to be offered at PU. As for the UCFV campus in Chandigarh, it will offer undergraduate and postgraduate courses in business management. The students will have an option to complete four-year degree, either in India or complete the first two years in Chandigarh and the last two in Canada. Training will be imparted by faculty from British Columbia.

Harassment case against eunuchs
Chandigarh, April 14 Mr Satish Kumar, of Sector 22 made a written complaint to the SDM on April 12, alleging that the eunuchs came to his house following the birth of his son. He said they forced their entry into the house and demanded Rs 11,000. After his repeated requests, they agreed to take Rs 5,100, which was also beyond his paying capacity. He said he was working as a driver with a firm on contract and was earning Rs 2,900 per month. He claimed he was the first person in the city to have formally complained against “extortion tactics” of the eunuchs. He said he had met the president of the eunuchs in Bapu Dham Colony, Sector 26, but no action had been taken. When the matter was taken up with Madhu Mahant, acting head of the eunuchs in Bapu Dham Colony, she denied any use of force, saying that they never took money from anybody beyond his paying capacity. She said she had been dealing with the area for the past 22 years and knew about the financial status of people. She even offered to return the money if the man was hurt by their demand, adding that their aim was to join the people in their happiness.

Death certificate to carry husband,
Chandigarh, April 14 The step follows the issue coming up at several conferences at the national level. The certificates across the country will now have the mention of these two vital links to the dead person. Chandigarh has already sent the new rulings for notification. The sources said the notification in this regard had already gone for printing and the changes in the death certificates could soon become a reality. The mention of the address and the father and husband comes back in the death certificate after five years. Before 2000, it was in practice at the national level but the practice was discontinued in the wake of reports that certain elements had tried to use the address in the death certificate as an address proof. The place of death could not necessarily mean confirmation of permanent address, the sources said. However, the deletion of these vital facts had led to confusion about the identity of several persons forcing the experts to suggest re-introduction of the address and relations in the certificate. The sources said Chandigarh had not got any specific complaint that the death certificate of a person could have created a mistaken identity. The change in the certificate may take some time as the Registrar of Death and Births offices will now have to get their stationery changed to get the columns of fathers and husbands and addresses included in the record registers. The sources, however, said they had seen family members of the deceased facing certain complications at different places without the address and relations being mentioned in the certificate. The local authorities had been assisting the families of the deceased issuing them letters, clarifying that it was not required to mention address and relations in the death certificate as per law so it should be accepted as it is by different authorities.

Bhinder’s brother hails Canadian House’s decision
Chandigarh, April 14 “The retrial through public inquiry might bring the guilty to the book as resentment against the acquittal of the two main accused, R.S. Malik and A.S. Bagri, has been widespread since last month when a Canadian court acquitted them,”Mr K.S. Bhinder, a brother of Capt S.S. Bhinder, Kanishha co-pilot, who perished in the blast over the Atlantic about 20 years ago. Welcoming the motion of Canadian Parliament for a retrial by public inquiry, Mr Bhinder hoped that punishment to the guilty might act as a balm on the wounds of 329 families, who lost their near and dear ones. On
Tuesday, Canadian Parliament passed a “non-binding” motion for public inquiry into the bombing following an outrage over the acquittal of the two main accused by a Canadian court last month. The Indian Government also took note of the Canadian Government’s move to appoint an independent adviser and said it wanted justice to be done. Since the case was based on circumstantial evidence, the court, which acquitted the main accused had to go by the evidence. The public inquiry could undue some of the injustice that was meted out to the families of the victims after the verdict, Mr Bhinder, an Executive Engineer with the Punjab PWD, argued. Meanwhile, Mr Navkiran Singh, general secretary of the Lawyers for Human Rights International(LHRI), who assisted the eight-members defence counsel team for Malik and Bagri, claimed that the case was doomed from the very beginning. The decision in the costliest-ever trial in the Canadian history costing over $130 million had shown that the two accused were falsely implicated. Though the government had the right to appeal against the single-Bench decision, yet the public inquiry would not be of much help, he added.

2 UTs overtake city on finance
Chandigarh, April 14 The earnings of the two UTs is much more than what they spend. In case of Chandigarh, the earnings are also more than the spending, but that sum is achieved after reimbursements of rentals from Punjab and Haryana are calculated. This rental income is not reflected in the revenue generated by Chandigarh and deposited in the consolidated fund of India. All UTs which require more money than what they earn, the gap is met from the consolidated fund. At present there are a total of five UTs. The earlier ones like Goa, Arunachal Pradesh, Delhi, Sikkim and Pondicherry have been granted partial or full statehood and are no longer funded by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs. The UTs of Andaman islands and Lakshadweep are huge spenders. It has been the pattern during the past several years. In some cases security considerations result in huge spending. Data in this regard was presented in the Lok Sabha last month when the local MP, Mr Pawan Bansal, posed a question on the fundings of UTs.

Passing Thru
Pakistan is an agrarian economy like India. Is agriculture subsidised there as in India?
Though agriculture is the main vocation of people in Pakistan, the government does not give subsidies. The minimum support price offered by government on wheat is Rs 400 per 40 kilograms while the MSP in India is Rs 640 per quintal. Even the gunny bags for packing food grains are available at Rs 50 a piece in Pakistan as compared to Rs 24 in India. Do you advocate export of foodgrains to Pakistan from Punjab in India? The opening of the trade link will be beneficial to both countries. While the import in Pakistan will help bring down the prices of food grains, it will also help India in getting a readymade market. — Ruchika M. Khanna

Residents protest against poor water supply
Chandigarh, April 14 Handing out a threat to block the road if the situation did not improve, the residents lament that living in the VIP area has not helped them in getting uninterrupted water
supply. The situation is not good in the 1500 houses in the Central Government housing colony in the sector, said Mr N.K. Jhingan, secretary of the Kendriya Sarkarth Karamchari Awasiya Sudhar Kalyan Sabha, Sector 7. The residents complain the morning water supply to their area begins at around 5 am. For the past two days the evening water supply is erratic and in some of the pockets not a single drop of water has reached the households. Officials in the corporation said the problem was specific to the CPWD
colony. However, there was no problem in other residential areas. The demand of the area was being met from the Sector 26 water works station. The low water pressure could be due to some problem in the internal supply line in the colony, said the officials. The area councillor, Mr Chander Mukhi, said he was aware of the problem. He said water pressure in other parts of the sector was normal. He said he would take up the issue with the concerned officials.

Mubarikpur becomes quacks’ paradise
Mubarikpur, April 14 The unqualified doctors, medical practioners and unskilled paramedical staff, without having professional degrees from any recognised medical institute, have been practising in this area at the cost of patients’ lives.
