Beware of new housing societies in Mohali
Mohali, June 21 While heads of these housing societies have assured their members of getting their housing complexes approved by the Town Planning Department and the Punjab Urban Planning and Development Authority (PUDA), both the organisations today clearly stated that the cooperative society heads were giving false assurances to their members. Pointing out that these societies cannot be approved from either of these departments, both Chief Administrator PUDA A.S. Chattwal and Chief Town Planner (CTP) Dharam Singh told Chandigarh Tribune that their statements should go as warning to the public not to invest in plots or houses that might never see the light of the day. Hundreds have invested lakhs of rupees in some new cooperative housing societies duly registered with the Cooperative Department, Punjab. Members of these societies have pooled in money and bought land within the sectorial grid of Mohali with an aim to building their housing complexes here. Earlier, such societies applied to PUDA for grant of land for the construction of their housing complexes and PUDA granted pockets of land to these societies in accordance with their master plan. “We cannot stop anyone from buying land anywhere they want to. But to presume that we would allow the bought land to be converted into a housing complex in our planning area is not right. We would acquire most of the land within the sectorial grid of Mohali and develop it in accordance with the master plan. If the land of a society falls within the grid, it is likely to be acquired,” said Mr Chattwal. Heads of some of these societies when contacted said since PUDA had allowed Judges Housing Complex to come up in Sector 77, PUDA would have to follow the same precedent and approve other complexes too. “If PUDA can allow Judges Society to buy land within the sectorial grid for their complex, then what justification do they have to stop us? We have bought 16.5 acres in Sector 86 and we have applied for land use change from the Divisional Town Planner (DTP). Following this we would apply to PUDA for approval,” said
He pointed out that members of Dastkar Cooperative Housing Society too had bought 20 acres in Sector 86. “In order to approve Judges Society, PUDA reallotted them the land they had bought. PUDA charged external development charges from them and we are also ready to pay all due charges,” added Mr Walia, who is also an employee of the office of the DTP. Chairman of Garib Niwaz Cooperative Housing Society Avtar Singh went to the extent of saying that Punjab Chief Minister would approve his colony and since the CM was the head of the state, it really did not matter what PUDA or the CTP said. “We have bought 10 acres in Sector 77 and will colonise it for our members,” said Avtar Singh. But the message from the approving authorities is clear. “No society or any private developer can build housing complexes within the sectorial grid of Mohali without prior approval. If the society members are being made to believe that I or my department is going to give them an approval, they are absolutely wrong,” said Dharam Singh. Though these societies are registered with the Department of Cooperatives, Punjab, the department too is not ready to take any responsibility beyond their constitution. “We have just registered these societies. There is a general restriction on registering housing societies. But we are in no way responsible for what they do with the land they have bought. We would come into the picture again only when the members complain to us that they are not satisfied with the working of the society,” said Yogeshwar Sharma, Assistant registrar Cooperatives, Mohali.

Monkeys shift base to south
Chandigarh, June 21 Mr Ishwar Singh, Deputy Conservator of Forests, said: “I was called up by certain residents and told that a truckload of monkeys was deported in the southern belt some time during the last week. At the moment I cannot authenticate the allegation. However, one thing is very clear that the monkey invasion in the southern sectors is a new development”. Telephone bells are constantly ringing at the fire station and the Municipal Corporation. A senior fire officer said: “We cannot do anything except give moral support to the residents at the spot.” A senior officer of the Municipal Corporation said: “The corporation is ill-equipped to handle the monkey menace.” Forest Department officials say that they run to the trouble spots. “We cannot kill the monkey, so we only try to shift from its present position,” he added. Mr Ishwar Singh said monkeys were largely confined to the northern sectors earlier and the shift to the southern belt was an interesting development. “We have painted at least 15 notice boards which will be put up at different places all over the city for the benefit of residents in guarding themselves against the monkey menace.” The prime area for invasion by the apes in their new area are the water tanks. Residents have been asked to lock their tanks. Due to the ongoing heat wave, the monkeys first have turns in quenching their thirst followed by bathing sessions, in case possible. Residents of Sector 33 during the past week have complained about the monkey menace in the area. The monkeys had first swarmed the residential area in Sector 33-A for a couple of days followed by Sector 33-D. A
group of more than 20
Monkey menace affronted the residents of Sector 44 on Monday evening. At least 40 monkeys were divided in different groups and scared the residents to salvage the clothes hanging on the lines and rush indoors. Residents of the sector had another brush wit the animals throughout the day on Tuesday. A senior citizen said the UT Administration should call a high-level meeting at the earliest and decide the matter.

No end to B.Ed aspirants’ woes
Chandigarh, June 21 Harried parents and students made last-minute attempts to find the fate of their identity cards. A power failure sent the waiting crowd in a tizzy as all work came to a halt. The Vice-Chancellor, Prof K.N. Pathak, at the request of various students’ organisations had authorised the Controller of Examinations, Dr Sodhi Ram, to waive Rs 40 being charged for issuing duplicate cards. However, no student was exempted this fee, sources said. Dr Sodhi Ram remained elusive all day and was not available for comments despite repeated attempts. The university had informed the candidates who have applied for the B.Ed. entrance test being conducted tomorrow at all district headquarters of Punjab, as also Abohar and Chandigarh, that those candidates who could not receive and collect their roll numbers should contact the office on telephone no 0172-2541066 and 2534829.

Those candidates who have not collected their roll numbers can report for the examination in the centre along with the proof of sending their application for the B.Ed. Entrance Test, on the day of examination with their attested photograph for appearing in the test, according to the Controller of Examinations, PU.

Man found dead outside
Tribune office
Chandigarh, June 21 Pardesi, a part-time electrician, had been living with his brother in Guru Nanak colony in Phase 10, Mohali. His wife deserted him long ago and he used to spend nights outside, said the police. The death came to light around 1 pm today, when someone noticed the victim lying under the sun. He approached the victim to check on him and found him dead. The police was informed and it took the body into its custody. According to the police, Pardesi might have slept under the shade of a tree in the lawn in the morning and died later. As the day progressed, the shade moved away, exposing the man to the sun. The police did not find any ID on the body to establish the identity of the deceased. However, a mobile phone number belonging to a Zirakpur resident, Varinder Kumar, was found from the pocket of the deceased. When contacted, Varinder Kumar expressed ignorance about the identity of the deceased saying that he had some construction work done at his house and the deceased might have come there as a labourer. However, he gave the phone number of the contractor who had worked at his house and the contractor identified the deceased as Pardesi. The body is lying at the mortuary of the General Hospital, Sector 16. A post-mortem examination will be performed
tomorrow to ascertain the exact cause of the death, said the SHO of the Industrial Area police station. However, the police has initiated inquest proceedings under Section 174 of the CrPC in this regard.

Passing Thru
Why is the company expanding into bags and briefcases segment?
Bags and briefcases for the office segment are the latest item the fashion industry is talking about. With more and more people becoming conscious of what they carry to office, the unorganised sector making briefcases is gradually moving towards being organised. Does Blow Plast believe it can make a niche for itself in the market? Yes. Most of the briefcases coming into the market are from the unorganised sector and locally made. Besides this, there are international brands which make briefcases in the country and sell them with their labels. However, these companies cater only to upmarket clients. What
kind of briefcases are available in the market? For the low-end users, there are briefcases in plastic and poly urethero (PU). Our company has come out with designs in PU, ranging from Rs 995 to Rs 1,295. We have also introduced genuine leather briefcases for high-end users, priced between Rs 2,900 and Rs 3,500. —

Privatisation of octroi collection kept pending
Mohali, June 21 The Director, Local Government, Punjab, had issued an order at a meeting held on April 30
that the work of octroi collection for 2005-06 should be given in private hands. The reserve price for giving the work on contract was to be fixed by the Deputy Director, Urban Local Bodies, Ludhiana, according to rules. The work should be given on contract from August 1 to July 31, 2006. The council is expected to earn an income of about Rs 20.32 crore from octroi during the year ending July 31. The council has cleared a proposal to spend Rs 1.03 lakh on carrying out plantation during the monsoon season to add to the green cover of the town. There is plan to plant 500 saplings of different varieties of trees and 1500 shrubs in green belts and open spaces in different parts of the town. The House has decided to hire a lawyer for filing a case against the Punjab State Electricity Board (PSEB) for demanding maintenance charges for streetlights falling under “C” category. The House was informed that the maintenance of street lights falling under “C” category was being done by the council since 2001 and the PSEB had stopped taking maintenance charges in this regard. But the power board was now demanding 50 per cent maintenance charges for “C” category street lights. Some councillors belonging to the Opposition group demanded that a proposal for providing retirement benefits to Mr H.B. Garg, Executive Officer, be kept pending. Mr Garg is retiring on August 31. They argued that since the government had not provided any information about the retirement date of Mr Garg, the proposal should be kept pending. At the meeting, it was decided to give an extension in the time period to WWICS and the Punjab National Bank, Phase I, for maintaining the Madanpur and dara Studio chowks, respectively, as their work was found to be satisfactory. However, the contract with the East-West Immigration Consultancy for maintaining the YPS chowk was terminated as it was not doing the work properly. It was now decided to hand over the maintenance work of the YPS chowk to Janta Land Promoters Ltd.

Maloya cries for water
Rajmeet Singh Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, June 21 Due to lack of coordination among the Block Development Panchayat Office (BDPO), office of the Deputy Commissioner and the Engineering Department, various estimates for development works are pending with the administration, rue the members of the village panchayat. In fact, the Maloya panchayat is rated at the top in terms of income from its resources. The panchayat was earning Rs 1.5 lakh as rent from dairy owners and Rs 10,000 as rent from shops in the village. “But still we cannot spend the money on the village development as the estimates have to be approved from the administration. The estimates files keep gathering dust in the offices of the administration,” said the Sarpanch of the village, Mr Mam Chand Rana. Mr Saroop Singh, a villager, said apart from one concrete village bylane, the estimates for laying of the remaining concrete bylanes in the village are pending for approval. Though an estimate of Rs 1 lakh to lay a stormwater line, which had been cleared by the previous Deputy Commissioner, the same has not been laid. The estimate had been approved six months back. The village does not have land for a cremation ground. Mr Mohinder Singh, another resident, said the sanitation need to be improved. The village has around 4000 voters and a population of around 14,000. The Maloya ward has been made a general ward for the forthcoming election.

Three BJP councillors to be questioned
Panchkula, June 21 “We have sought time from state organisational secretary Bhagwat Sharan Mathur and he will look into the matter after talking with the three councillors,” he said. The three BJP councillors — C.B. Goel, V.K. Sood and Jagdamba Gupta — have been accused of joining hands with Congress-backed councillors in the 31 member House. While one of the councillors had sided with local MP Kumari Selja’s faction, the other two had joined hands with Deputy Chief Minister Chander Mohan and abstained from voting to elect the MC President on June 11. State secretary of the party Gian Chand Gupta, while addressing mediapersons, said there was a severe shortage of power in the state. Long and unscheduled power cuts had become the order of the day in all parts of the state, he alleged. Mr Gupta also criticised the hike in petrol and diesel prices, saying that it was unjustified. “This is the third hike in prices of petroleum products during the first year of the UPA government’s rule. Petrol and diesel price hike has a cascading affect on the prices of other essential commodities, thus the common man suffers,” he said. Mr Gupta also announced the dates for various functions being organised as part of the silver jubilee celebrations of the formation of the BJP. He said Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee’s martyrdom day would be observed on June 23, while Kargil Vijay Diwas would be celebrated on July 26. The families of Kargil martyrs and ex-servicemen would be honoured on the occasion, he added.

CHB residents seek ownership right
Chandigarh, June 21 The need-based additions and alterations made by them by spending their hard-earned money continued to be under the threat of demolition. Besides, the alleged harassment of the residents at the hands of the unscrupulous board officials, who made profit from people’s misery, continued unabated, Mr Datt alleged. Demanding liberal covered area and compounding of additional coverage without any insistence on the uniformity of design, Mr B.S. Chadha, general secretary, demanded a fresh look at the transfer of ownership policy of the board to make it really operative. A majority of the residents having paid the full amount to the board have been waiting for more than a decade for the transfer of houses in their names. Even the original allottees are without the conveyance deeds. The affidavit clause on so-called unauthorised structures, which had resulted from the neglect of the CHB in the first place, was to be blamed for the plight of the residents. A press note of the federation appealed to the UT Administrator to treat the two issues of the regularisation and ownership separately. The harassed residents should be given the ownership rights by plugging the loopholes in the transfer of the ownership policy, it added.

CAT reprieve for Admn staffers
Chandigarh, June 21 The option had been asked after the administration issued a notification earlier this month declaring a number of employees as surplus. The tribunal has asked the administration to maintain status quo till the next date of hearing i.e. June 27. After hearing to an application moved by 24 employees, the tribunal observed that the employees had approached it after the issuance of the notification. The applicants pleaded that they should not be covered under the notification of the administration through which they had been asked to give their options to get transferred to the Chandigarh Municipal Corporation. The employees lamented that they had been recruited after 1995 and could not be covered in the list as the cutoff date for asking the option was 1996. The problem began in 1995 when the municipal corporation was created. The administration decided to consider the transfer of employees who had been working with the administration till March 23, 1996, to the corporation. However, the employees lamented that the administration was following a pick-and-chose policy while transferring the employees. Consequently, a number of employees of different departments went to the tribunal in 2001, pleading that their consent had not been taken while transferring them. CAT has directed the administration to treat the transferred employees on deputation and seek fresh options from them. The administration had prepared the seniority list on May 18, 1996, and placed the employees at the bottom of the seniority list. They pleaded that they should be considered under the notification.

Fear stalks Bapu Dham resident
Chandigarh, June 21 “Even the slightest sound in the middle of the night sends blood racing through my veins,” says Raju in a trembling voice. His frail body shakes like a twig before he adds, “I don’t know when this will ordeal come to an end.... Someone, please help me.” It all started on June 17. Raju — working as a hired hand in an electrical store in Sector 18 — was selling appliances when a phone call from an acquaintance “scared the life out of him”. “I was told that some people were beating my wife,” he recalls. “I rushed home to find her sitting on the floor crying, her clothes torn to pieces. Before I could make inquiries, around eight men surrounded us. Even as we protested, they started kicking and hitting us, ruthlessly.” Pausing a little to recover his breath, he adds, “We both managed to break free and rushed out for help. My wife reached the police beat box, while I went straight to the police station. The officer on duty deployed a cop to accompany me. But the assaulters had escaped by the time we reached the spot.” He accuses the assaulters of taking along with them jewellery belonging to his wife. Raju claims subsequent inquiries into the matter revealed that his neighbours were angry with them as a woman of their family had hidden herself in a room in their house. Raju adds that a complaint was handed over to the police promptly. But they initially refused to register a first information report in the matter. “In fact, on Saturday, we were told that the complaint had been misplaced.... Imagine, a complaint handed over to the police being misplaced. Anyway, I submitted a fresh complaint,” he says. But things did not end there. Raju says that the next day he was told by the police that two of the accused named by him had surrendered before them and he should now compromise the matter. “I refused,” he asserts. “How can I compromise knowing that our lives will never be the same again if they are allowed to patrol the streets without paying for their deeds?” Breaking down, Raju concludes: “Two of the accused have not even been touched by the police. They are roaming about freely. Worse, the jewellery items taken away by them have not been returned.... I wish it was all a bad dream.” A senior police officer denies the allegations of favouring the accused. He adds that further investigations are on in the matter and it is premature for him to comment on anything.
