Punjab: Experience

Chandigarh/New Delhi,
May 27
The expansion of the Union
Cabinet today was like a bitter-sweet pill for the northern
region. Some states were clear gainers in the “berth
adjustment” made by the Congress-led UPA combine, while
leaders of others were left sulking and even brooding at their
ill-luck after having performed well in the polls.

Highway
robbers turn to homes
Chandigarh, May 27
It was 2 am on Wednesday and Lalit
Behl (33) was dozing in the car. He had got down from an international
flight at Delhi and his driver for the past six years, Narinder, was
driving the Honda Civic at a steady speed of over 100 km and in another
hour or so, he hoped to reach home in Chandigarh. A few sharp swerves
and sudden application of the brakes jolted him awake.
