The district has the sanctioned strength of 25 laboratory technicians, out of which seven are lying vacant. Out of these one each is vacant in Kaithal, CHC Guhla, Siwn, Pundri and Kalayat and two in Rajound. Out of the sanctioned strength of 143 female multi-purpose health workers MPHW(F), 64 are lying vacant. As many as 11 posts are vacant in CHC Guhla alone.

One post each of Pharmacist is vacant in Kaithal, Kaul and Pundri. SK Nain, civil surgeon, said more doctors were needed to provide good service to the patients, but the existing team of doctors in various fields was working with dedication. The bed occupancy was 120 per cent and at times doctors had to make extra arrangements to meet the rush of patients. The X-Ray machine and new ultrasound machine would be installed soon, he said. The ministers and government functionaries had been claiming the Indira Gandhi
multi-speciality hospital to be developed into a smaller version of PGI, Chandigarh, where all kind of special treatment would be available so that the patients do not have to go to other towns for treatment. The hospital works like any other district- level hospital and lacks many facilities which are urgently required. Due to lack of facilities, the patients continue to be referred to other hospitals. The patients and doctors have demand that the government should act fast to make it a
multi-speciality hospital. Despite tall claims made by the government, the shortage of doctors and para medical staff has adversely affected the functioning of the government Hospital in Kaithal and community health centres and primary health centres in different parts of the district.

State fails to form eco panel
Gurgaon, December 26 He said on approaching the Central authorities concerned, they were told that the Haryana Government had not filed its reply on the availability of water at the project sites, without which the desired clearance could not be given. “Hence, the costs of the projects are escalating and in the long run, the consumers (read commoners) will have to bear the burden,” he said, adding that at least 40 per cent of the project capital went into seeking the requisite approvals. “The grant of the necessary approvals should not take more than three months, but we usually have to wait for up to a year or so,” he revealed. In response to a query, Anand asserted that the self-certification regime recently introduced in Haryana had already failed in Indore (Madhya Pradesh) as the architects had started employing the same tactics as government babus. “The need of the hour is to introduce a streamlined online regime which does not require any human interface,” he observed. Anand, who is also the CMD of ATS Infrastructure Ltd, was here to launch a ATS Kocoon, the group’s first residential project in Gurgaon.

Opp hails decision on ‘unattached’
MLAs
Bijendra Ahlawat Tribune News Service
Rohtak, December 26 Describing the interim order of the High Court as historic and remarkable, the state unit of the CPI(M) hoped that it would help in curbing defection. The High Court decision has given a severe jolt to the Congress party which had allegedly resorted to the ‘shameless act of horse trading’ in order to muster majority in the Assembly, said the party general secretary Inderjit Singh, in a press statement. He said his party was in favour of disqualifying all the five legislators immediately. He said the party wants that the anti-defection law should be suitably amended so that precious time was not wasted in penalising the elected representatives indulging in defection, he added. The district unit of Kuldeep Bishnoi led HJC has also hailed the court verdict and has claimed that the present state government had been left with no moral right to remain in power after this decision. The party will leave no stone unturned to get the defector MLAs disqualified from the state Assembly as they had violated all the democratic norms and had cheated the voters, claimed Yogender Nath Malhotra, local HJC leader. The district unit of the BJP and the INLD have also welcomed the court decision of declaring the legislators as ‘unattached’ and have sought the resignation of Hooda government.

Describing martyrs as a valuable legacy of the nation, Yadvender Singh stressed the need for the optimum utilisation of youths’ vast energy for nation-building and other positive purposes.

Farmers seek loans at 4 per cent interest
Jind, December 26 Phool Singh Sheokand, president of the state unit of the Kisan Sabha, said that though the state government had formed a commission under the chairmanship of RS Paroda, the measures taken so far by the state and union governments were inadequate to meet the challenges faced by majority of the farmers. He said unless the government does not provide loans to farmers at 4 per cent interest, it was nearly impossible to help the farmers. The cost of seeds, fertilisers and pesticides has gone up sharply in the past and the farmers had become dependent on government subsidy, he rued. Besides low interest rate, the government should provide insurance cover to the main crops, he lamented. He said while the farmers demand regular power and water supply at affordable rates, the authorities have been increasing the power bill without the assurance of adequate supply. The commission had failed to come up with any concrete suggestions so far, he said. Demanding a clear-cut policy on land acquisition in the state, the farmers’ body asked the government to create infrastructure which could help farmers to diversify the crop pattern and to get maximum return from the allied activities like horticulture, poultry and dairy farming. It may be recalled that Jind has developed as a poultry hub over the years besides the traditional farming of crops.

‘Technical fault led to false calls on 100’
Faridabad, December 26 The errant service providers operating in the NCR are said to have admitted to the fault and have taken corrective measures. Except for Reliance and Tata Indiacom, all other service providers had developed a technical snag. S Kapur, Police Commissioner, Faridabad, said: “Major chunk of the calls received on the dial-100 system in the control room were generated through the server of the errant service providers. This was due to wrong configuration of the main switch of the concerned service providers”. Consequently, calls made to 911 and 112 were also diverted to the police emergency number, he said. He further said the fault resulted in a deluge of unwanted calls on 100. It kept the telephone line clogged which deprived the public from reaching to the police through the Dial-100 in emergency, he added. Kapur said after the anomaly was detected and rectified, the number of blank calls had reduced drastically. “On a given day out of about 700 calls on 100, now only about 80 of them were blank calls. Earlier there number used to be about 300 or more,”
he added. “This experience will be shared at the state and national level,”
Kapur added.

Power of judicial review
The decision of a Division Bench of Punjab and Haryana High Court directing the Haryana Speaker to decide within four months i.e. before April 30, 2012 the pending disqualification proceedings against five erstwhile members of Haryana Janhit Congress (HJC) for their alleged ‘en-bloc defection’ into the Congress Legislature Party under the guise of ‘merger’ over two years ago in November, 2009 once again substantiates the supremacy of the power of judicial review. It may perhaps be a sheer coincidence that the order of Division Bench has come exactly a year after a Single Judge of the HC had passed similar directions to the Speaker on December 20, 2010. Pertinent to mention that two of the 5 ‘unattached’ MLAs are cabinet ministers and one is the Chief Parliamentary Secretary in Haryana Government. The issue which had already been pending for almost two years indeed merits expeditious adjudication. Although HC directions to a constitutional functionary to decide an impending issue within stipulated time looks highly exaggerated. The principles of natural justice demand that if an adjudicating authority sits over a matter for considerable long period, the higher courts can not remain a mute spectator. Without prejudice to the right and remedy of the Speaker and the five erstwhile HJC MLAs to move a SLP in the Supreme Court, let us hope that the Haryana Speaker would comply the latest directions of HC in letter and spirit and decide the already much delayed matter expeditiously.
