Ludhiana, April 9
Even as there is a shortage of parking space in the city, the biggest public parking of the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation is in lying in a poor state.

During a visit to this parking, one is welcomed with a damaged and uneven floor, broken windowpanes and stink.

This multi-level parking was constructed at a cost of around Rs 32 crore in 1994 to solve the problem of unauthorised parking in one of the busiest areas of the city.

However, this parking, which is hardly 50 metres away from the Zone A office of the MC, has failed to solve the parking problem.

For the generation of additional revenue, MC officials had at that time proposed to start a restaurant on the terrace of the parking space. The terrace looks more like a grassy playground with vegetation and weeds on it. The elevators in the parking are non-functional.

The contractor has been accused of overcharging on several occasions, but every time he manages to go scot-free and motorists have to bear the brunt.

Despite the fact that this parking can accommodate hundreds of vehicles, especially two-wheelers, illegal parking slots have come up on roads near this parking lot. MC officials working in the Zone A office seem to have turned a blind eye to the violation.

In January 2004, the MC had chalked out a plan for the construction of seven multi-level parking lots in various localities in the city. These multi-level parking lots were to be constructed in the Feroze Gandhi market (21,000 sq ft), near Mai Nand Kaur Gurdwara in Ghumar Mandi (8,000 sq ft), Mini Rose Garden (6,250 sq ft), Campa Cola Chowk on Gill Road (15,000 sq ft), the Sarabha Nagar main market (25,000 sq ft), Daresi Road (16,000 sq ft) and Bhadaur House (30,000 sq ft).

These parking lots were to be constructed at an estimated cost of around Rs 9 crore. Nine years on, this proposal remains on paper.

Following a news report carried in these columns about haphazard parking in the Bhadaur House area, officials of the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation today removed encroachments from the area. They confiscated some rehris from the area, but no action was taken against the haphazardly parked vehicles on the road near Calibre Plaza, also known as the AC market.

Several vehicles, mostly two-wheelers and rickshaws, can be seen parked on this road as well as other parts of the Bhadaur House area during office hours. MC officials and the traffic police have never made any efforts to check this menace.

Due to haphazard parking by people visiting the market, the area witnesses long traffic snarls throughout the day. Ironically, the Zone A office of the MC is situated merely 100 yards away from Bhadaur House, but the officials seem least bothered. Vehicles are parked on the road, despite the fact that the MC multi-level parking and another parking at Calibre Plaza are situated in the area.

The Tehbazari wing of the MC also cleared encroachments from the road along the Budha Nullah today. “We also removed encroachments from Shastri Nagar and Model Town Extension,” said a Tehbazari official.

A student stole the car of his friend and then demanded Rs 85,000 to release it, but his trick did not work and he landed in the police net.

The accused has been identified as Sushil Kumar, a resident of Sector 15 B, Chandigarh. The victim Jatinder Singh, a resident of Bhukhri village in Ludhiana, was his close friend.

Sushil, a student of a college in Chandigarh, was reportedly facing a financial crunch and needed money to sustain in Chandigarh.

Sushil came to meet Jatinder at his home in Ludhiana and he managed to make duplicate keys of his car.

On March 19, 2013, Jatinder had gone to Kalra Hospital in the city to meet his ailing uncle and he parked his Ford Icon car outside the hospital.

When he came out, he was shocked to find his car missing. He lodged a complaint with the police.

“A few days ago, I received a call from Sushil and he said that some persons were demanding Rs 85,000 to return the car. Sushil told me that he would manage to return the car by talking to the carjackers,” Jatinder told the police.

“When I reached Kharar with Rs 50,000, Sushil switched off his mobile phone," he told officials at the Division No. 3 police station.

The police booked Sushil and his friend Shiwam in the case. Brij Mohan, SHO of the Division No. 3 police station, said Sushil was arrested today in Chandigarh.

“Sushil had stolen the car and he concocted a story of carjacking by a gang,”said Brij Mohan.

The expressway on the southern bypass connecting Ludhiana with Doraha has become a death trap for commuters. Hardly does a day pass without an accident being reported from the expressway.

In the latest incident, a 45-year-old trader dealing in funnels was killed in a head-on collision between two vehicles near Gurdwara Shaheedan at Ajnod village here today. The victim has been identified as Dharampal Singh, a resident of Dugri. The incident took place at 2 pm when Dharampal was heading towards Doraha in his Tata Indigo car.

According to investigating officer Jagtar Singh, an SUV (Toyota Fortuner), driven by Iqbal Singh of the Daba Lohara area, which was on the way from Doraha to Ludhiana, collided head-on with the Tata Indigo car.

While Dharampal died on the spot, his friend sustained serious injuries and was rushed to a hospital.

Iqbal Singh, the driver of the Toyota Fortuner, also sustained minor injuries.

The investigating officer said the car driven by Iqbal Singh was registered in the name of Sukhwinder Kaur. Iqbal was reportedly driving at a high speed, which led to the accident. Police sources said Iqbal Singh had recently got married and had received the car in dowry.

City residents have something to cheer about. They can look forward to a housing bonanza on the periphery of the city if the plans of the Greater Ludhiana Area Development Authority (GLADA) take shape in the near future.

According to GLADA officials, a township, Aeropolis Mega Project, is proposed to be developed at Sahnewal between the existing airport and Chandigarh Road on 1,200 to 1,500 acres. The site has been identified subject to final adjustments. The project will include development of the airport surroundings according to the modern concepts of town planning and giving a facelift to the entire area.

Another urban estate with a huge housing cluster will be developed in Waterfront City on around 2,000 acres along the Sidhwan canal in Lohara, Jaspal Bangar, Bulara and Sangowal villages.

Another township, Metro City, is proposed to be developed on 250 to 500 acres near the proposed Metro Rail depots in Ayali Kalan and Gill villages. The project site is yet to be finalised while probable locations could be Ayali Kalan, Jhande and Gill villages.

The officials said GLADA intended to engage a consultant for preparing the master plans, detailed project reports and other related services for the proposed urban estates. The consultant would be responsible for strategic planning for growth and urban development in line with the master plans, zonal plans, financial planning, preparation of an action plan and monitoring of initiatives of the action plan.

A senior official of the engineering wing of GLADA said of the four shortlisted bidders, work for lending assistance to hire a competent consultant had already been awarded to a Chandigarh-based human resource firm, Ernest and Young Private Limited.

Having lost three of her four children in a fire accident, life has dealt a cruel blow to 30-year-old Seema, who is undergoing treatment at Lord Mahavir Civil Hospital in Ludhiana. Lying on a bed in the tuberculosis ward, she recalls the fateful morning of March 31 when a fire in her shanty left her three children dead.

"My husband has gone to Haridwar to immerse the mortal remains of my children in the Ganga. How will I live without them now. God did not even show mercy on my 14-month-old daughter Payal, who was also devoured by the fire," she said, with tears rolling down her cheeks.

Seema's daughter Sonia (7), who was lucky to have survived the fire incident, is perhaps not aware of the severity of the tragedy. She said, "My mother keeps crying all the time".

Seema lost her son and two daughters on March 31 after the shanty they were living in caught fire at Gagandeep Colony near Bhattian.

Sonu (5), Kamna (14 months old) and Payal (3) had died in the fire tragedy. While Sonu and Kamna died on the spot, Payal died at the Rajindra Hospital in Patiala.

Her husband Kamal is a daily wage earner. Seema used to work as a maid, but says that now that her world had been shattered, she may not be able to work.

Judicial Magistrate Jagmilap Singh Khusdil has convicted Anand Sharma, owner of M/s Swastic Cylinder, Overlock Road, Ludhiana, in a cheque-bounce case.

The accused pleaded false implication. But the court found him guilty in light of the evidence adduced by the complainant.

"If we come from poor back-grounds, that does not mean that our parents can not feed us. They can provide us much better food than what we get here in the school. We will not eat this food", rued Kirandeep, (name changed), a class IV student of Government Primary School, Field Ganj here.

There are as many as 53 students in Government Primary School in I-A block and 22 students in I-C block. Barring four-five students, all other students have refused to accept the mid-day meal, prepared by the authorities. Instead, for the last many days, the students have been bringing their own lunch box from home and eat it during the recess time.

Jagjit Kaur, (name changed) another student said that students felt like vomiting after eating the meals. "Though we are backward and poor but we get fresh food from our parents. We are not slaves and we do not even ask the authorities to provide us meals. The vegetables are all stale and smell bad and the chapatis too dry to eat. We are happy to bring our own food from home", she said.

While many parents also met the teachers and requested them not to provide their wards, the mid-day meals. Students don not even look at the mid-day meal and return it. A teacher wishing not to be quoted said, "We can not force the students to have the mid-day meals. But we have spoken to the concerned persons, who bring the meals and told them that students dislike like the meals.

While they say that all other students around the city have no problem against the meals except for these students".

The contractor for mid-day meals, Sanjay Dhawan however said that he prepared meals for at least 35 thousand students every day. It was not necessary that all students liked the food. He could neither force anyone to eat the meals, it was their own wish.

If you are non-salaried and have more than Rs 50,000 in cash with you, then you can draw the attention of the income tax department. In the new forms for income tax returns, the government may ask non-salaried individuals to declare in-hand cash of more than Rs 50,000.

Individual taxpayers with income other than salary file ITR3 and ITR4.

"Concealing the facts would not be easy now, as the department would be comparing the details filed by the person with the information provided to it by the third party sources. These forms will be for non-salaried taxpayers, particularly high net worth individuals since many of them are not declaring their true incomes," said a senior official from the IT department.

Assets the department wants the people to declare are defined as "wealth" and come under the Wealth Tax Act.

The department may also seek the details of vehicles, aircraft, yachts and boats owned by individuals. Those buying gold may have to provide the details of jewellery, bullion or articles made of gold or precious metals.

Not only this, if you are an art lover and fond of buying paintings, sculptures or antique and archaeological pieces, then also you will be required to provide the details of the same.

It is likely that the department would also seek the details of land or buildings, deposits, insurance and shares in one's name, as well as loans and advances. After providing the details of all assets on acquisition costs, taxpayers would also have to declare liabilities in a separate column.

Last year the disclosure for foreign assets was introduced.

It has been observed that mothers as well as teachers keep telling children to wash hands properly with soap or liquid soap before eating anything. For best results, many people use liquid soaps of different companies for washing hands.

It is ironical that despite of all such products available in the market, very few wash their hands properly as they just wet their palms and apply soap and avoid washing inter digital points of hands, nails and back side of the hands, which are all the time more dirty.

Keeping this in view, medical experts of different hospitals are now making schoolchildren aware about it but adults are still unaware. Dr Muktanjali Arya, Infection Control Officer SPS Apollo Hospitals, Ludhiana, said, "Handwashing is done in three ways. We train public in general about social handwash. In this both the hands are washed completely with soap.

All the parts of hands including fingers, inter digital points of hands, nails, palm and back side of the hands till wrist should be washed with soap properly for 30
seconds."

She said all the doctors and hospital staff is supposed to go for "procedural hand wash" in which a person who is to do any procedure on a patient is supposed to wash hands at least for one minute. Third type is of "surgical handwash" where all the surgeons wash their hands properly for three minutes before and after conducting any surgery."

She said hospitals may witness decrease in infection by 60 to 70 per cent is doctors and paramedics wash their hands properly while examining patients.

Dr Kanwal Maseeh Medical Superintendent of Christian medical College and Hospital said, "Although it is a very common thing but very less people bother about it. Always keep in mind that if you do not wash hands properly, you are going to fall sick with one or the other infection."

Dr Arya said, "I have seen school going children from the age group of 10 to 12 years learn all this in very receptive way and they further teach their parents and other family members at home."

A comprehending spirit behind circulating Abraham Lincoln’s letter, which he had once written to his son's teacher, among constituents of government and private-aided schools is that teachers of local schools has vowed to put in their best efforts for realising the aspirations of parents of their wards. They undertook to inculcate moral values and social traits among their wards besides imparting ideal formal education.

Oath was taken in response to a call given by the Director General ( School Education) Kahn Singh Pannu through District Education Officers and heads of various schools of the region.

“The copy of the letter, supposedly written by the former US President Abraham Lincoln, through our seniors has come as a tool to comprehend expectations of parents of our students. Moreover we are in better position to convince the parents that they should cooperate with us in tailoring the traits of their wards, according to ideals put forth by a great statesman of the world," said teachers of schools, situated at local town and surrounding localities.

Pardeep Sharda, principal of Mahatama Gandhi Memorial National Senior Secondary School said teachers and parents of a majority of students of his school had appreciated initiative taken by the higher authorities in using the historic document for the overall development of students.

“While teachers of my school assured to do their best to inculcate qualities listed in the letter among their students, parents of majority of the students welcomed the decision taken in interest of their wards,” said Sharda, adding copies of the letter were distributed among teachers besides displaying on school boards.

The DG(SE) had directed heads of all schools to display Punjabi and English version of the contents of the historic letter written by Abraham Lincoln to his son’s teacher.

“Cultural, social, intellectual and emotional development of students is equally important as academic", that's what the 16th US President Abraham Lincoln had written in the letter. Aspirations of parents from teachers have been mentioned very sensitively in this letter. This letter shows that Abraham Lincoln had desired his son's teacher to make him a wise person with a strong determination.

Perusal of the letter revealed that contrary to the present trend Lincoln had wished his son to know that a dollar earned was far more valuable than five found.

Letter further says, “Teach him, if you can, the wonder of a book, but also give him quiet time to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky, bees in the sun, and flowers on a green hillside. Teach him always to have sublime faith in himself, because then he will always have sublime faith in mankind.This is a big order, but see what you can do. He is such a fine little fellow, my son".

The authorities of a temple, which is situated near Mata Rani Chowk, have tried to carve out an entrance towards the Zone A office parking by demolishing the MC wall. Though the gate was installed by the temple authorities about three years ago, they demolished the wall at around 2 am today.

When the MC officials visited the spot, the authorities claimed that they had been granted permission by Mayor Harcharan Singh Gohalwaria. However, the Mayor denied having granted any such permission to the temple authorities and termed the demolition of the wall as illegal.

As the MC officials have put a lock on the gate, several politicians, including one who holds a high post in the MC, as well as RTI activists, tried to pressurise the MC officials to remove the lock.

Though some security guards were on duty outside the Zone A office during the night, they failed to notice the wall being demolished.

An MC official said this was not the first time that the temple authorities had indulged in such activities. They had tried to break the wall earlier also, but at that time only a few bricks were removed. The wall was repaired by the MC staff. We brought the matter to senior MC officials's notice.

A BJP leader, who holds a key post in the MC, had called us several times since morning, asking us to remove the lock. Not only him, but some RTI activists, who otherwise make a hue and cry over illegal constructions in the city, came to the Zone A office and tried to pressurise us to remain silent over this issue, said an MC official.

Gohalwaria said he had not granted permission to the temple authorities for the installation of the gate. "Had I granted the permission to them, the temple authorities would not have broken the MC wall. Religious institutions should not indulge in such illegal acts," he said.

The chairperson of the Punjab Women's Commission, Paramjit Kaur, has expressed fear that the new amendment to the anti-rape law could lead to its abuse.

"Stricter punishment for eve-teasing is a positive step, but I fear that it will also be misused like dowry and rape charges. I fear it will be used for settling personal scores," said Paramjit Kaur.

She visited the city today to take stock of cases domestic violence and crime against women. She said it was her first visit to the city after she assumed charge as the Chairman of the State Woman Commission.

She said lower-rung officers should be sensitised on handling women's complaints.

She also visited the local jail and met the woman inmates. She said in March, the commission recieved 138 complaints.

Uneasy calm prevailed on the Punjab Agricultural University campus regarding the issue of installation of PAU Students Association (PAUSA) president and chairman.

The reason behind this uneasy calm was the slugfest between two groups of students, who both tried to claim supremacy over PAUSA.

A new executive body of PAUSA was elected unanimously on March 27 in which Sharanbir Singh Sandhu was elected its president.

According to the constitution of PAUSA, there is no provision for the post of chairman. But, a student, Rajwinder Singh Kalyaan, who was aspirant for the post of president, pasted posters on the walls of the PAU buildings, in which he figured as the chairman of PAUSA, yesterday.

Earlier, the Sharanbir group had pasted the posters of his team. But, the Rajwinder group replaced the older posters with new posters in which Rajwinder figured as the chairman of PAUSA and Sharanbir as its president.

Some unidentified students, who are allegedly associated with the Sharanbir group, tore the posters today. The situation gets tense on the PAU campus as one of the groups called a meeting near the student centre over the issue.

Taking precautionary step to tackle students' clash, the PAU authorities beefed up security near the student centre and the rock garden area. Security officer of the PAU RS Grewal was also present on the spot for three hours. Policemen were also deployed on the campus. No clash had been reported till the filing of the report.

Rajwinder Singh and Rajbir Singh couldn't be contacted as their mobile phones were switched off.

Meanwhile, the security officer of the PAU said: "There was little tension due to rumours. None of the group tore posters pasted on the buildings. Our security men removed the posters as the university does not allow to paste any posters on its buildings. The posters should be pasted on the notice boards".
