Accused escapes, held
Chandigarh, June 26 The incident speaks volumes of the glaring discrepancies on the part of the police in bringing undertrials for medical examination. A total of five prisoners were brought to the hospital for medical examination today with only three policemen to guard them. The incident occurred in the afternoon when Maharana Kumar Singh, a resident of Burail, was brought to the hospital for a medical examination. Two co-accused in separate theft cases and two undertrials were present along with Maharana as they were together brought to the hospital from the Sector 3 police station. The five prisoners were guarded by a Sub-Inspector, a constable and a Home Guards volunteer. Maharana pushed constable Kuldeep Singh and escaped. Kuldeep was reportedly talking to someone on his mobile phone when the accused fled from police custody. The police launched a hunt for the accused. It gathered inputs about his accomplices and Maharana was arrested from Panchkula in the evening along with another thief, identified as Sikander. The accused was arrested while stealing scrap from the premises of the Punjab and Haryana High Court yesterday.
Inquiry ordered into police negligence
Taking notice of the negligence by its staff, officiating UT SSP Maneesh Chaudhery has ordered a departmental inquiry against a Sub-Inspector and a constable. Action against the Home Guards volunteer guarding the undertrial has been sought through a letter to the DIG, sources said.
No lessons learnt
On April 8, an undertrial in a rape case, Deepak Kumar (27), who was lodged in the Model Burail Jail, had escaped from police custody at the GMSH-16 where he was taken for a medical examination. He had complained of stomach pain. The accused, however, surrendered in a district court after a week.

Fissures in Chandigarh Cong come to the fore
Chandigarh, June 26
The Mayor's office received a letter from Congress councillor Mukesh Bassi today. In the letter, Bassi has targeted Chawla by stating that for the past few months, he has observed that the Mayor is forming his own groups in every single municipal ward dominated by the Congress workers close to Bansal. In the wake of the railgate scam, Bansal has been finding it difficult to regain his political base in the city.
After his exit from the Union Cabinet, many senior Congress leaders, including the local leaders, are now eyeing the Lok Sabha seat from the City Beautiful.
How it all started
Bassi was upset to know about Chawla's visit to the Sector 19 market on June 25, without informing him. Bassi has alleged that Chawla's visit to the Sector 19 market to solve the shopkeepers' problems has sent wrong signals to the residents of his ward. Bassi says they think their councillor is not doing anything for them and only the Mayor is their well-wisher. In the past 18 months, he had carried out developmental works worht Rs 14 crore in his ward whereas Chawla has hardly done anything for the residents of his own ward (Ward No. 5), which includes Sector 25 and Dhanas village, adds Bassi. In the letter, the Congress councillor says a shopkeeper of Sector 19, on whose complaint the Mayor visited the Sector 19 market, is close to Chawla and regularly visits the Mayor's office. It has been mentioned in the letter that the complaint was politically motivated and was made at the Mayor's behest.
'You took my silence as my weakness'
"Since January, you have done a number of things which went against me in my area. I had remained silent only for the sake of my Congress party, local MP Pawan Kumar Bansal and party president BB Behl. But, you took my silence as my weakness and are deliberately making attempts to ruin my political image. Therefore, I am writing this letter to you. I always gave my wholehearted support to you as city Mayor and had never thought that you will target me, the letter reads.

Now, pay Rs 5 for first 4 hrs at Sector 17 parking
Chandigarh, June 26 The decision was taken at a meeting of the Finance and Contract Committee (F&CC) held here today. Earlier, a proposal was mooted for charging Rs 5 for the first two hours that was opposed by the Traders' Association of Sector 17, citing a decrease in the number of visitors. The association had recently met the area councillor and the Mayor and proposed to increase the parking fee hours from two to four. The association had stated that the number of visitors to the market had decreased due to the shifting of the District Courts Complex from Sector 17 to Sector 43 and the opening of the Elante mall in the Industrial Area, Phase 1. The traders also said these parking constraints would further affect their business. "We welcome the decision of the F&CC. This will encourage sales and visitors' arrival at the market. It has brought hopes for
the raders," said JPS Kalra, general secretary of the association. The F&CC members also approved the construction of a boundary wall at the sports complex, Dadu Majra village, at a cost of Rs 25.66 lakh. Installing split air-conditioners and carrying out allied works at the community centre, Sector 27, at an estimated cost of Rs 12.88 lakh was also approved. The committee also gave its nod to the purchase of 260 garbage collection cycle carts and water coolers for the 13 civil dispensaries under the civic body's jurisdiction. For the Rose Club in Sector 16, installing split and window air-conditioners at the multipurpose hall, meeting room, gymnasium, library and the office of the community centre at cost of Rs 7.98 lakh was also approved.
More tube-wells to meet water shortage in city
In other decisions, the F&CC members approved the proposal of the MC to meet the shortage of 9 MGD of water in the city. The MC has directed its public and health wings to identify the locations for setting up new tube-wells and make proposals for the re-boring of the old tube-wells.

900 stranded pilgrims reach city
While recounting his experience, Jaswinder Singh (28), from Mansa, said he was still in a shock having seen the massive destruction in several parts of Uttarakhand. Children and women were worst affected, he said. “We remained trapped in Govind Dham, about 5 km from Hemkund Sahib for four days. It was through a rope bridge running above the flood-swollen river that several pilgrims were evacuated,” he said. Jagdeep Singh from Ganganagar, Rajasthan, said the rescue operation was very slow. Despite 5,000 passengers being trapped between Govind Ghatt and Hemkund Sahib, around 300 pilgrims were being airlifted every day. First three days, said 59-year-old Jaswant Singh from Mohali district, were very difficult. Trapped in Govind Ghatt, he and others had to survive on rainwater, since food and other necessary items did not reach there on time, he said. “It was only after we reached Joshi Math that we were given warm clothes and proper food,” said Jaswant. Hirdeypal Singh from Hoshiarpur said that though there was no major causality at Hem Kund Sahib, people were now distressed and it would take them a long time to recover from it. He said the management of Gurdawars in and around Hem Kund Sahib was very bad. Nineteen-year-old Manjot Kaur from Ludhiana said the family had lost all hopes of returning safely on seeing pilgrims being washed away in the flash flood. Reaching Chandigarh was a major relief, she said. “We pray for all the other stranded pilgrims and hope they too reach home safely,” said another survivor, 42-year-old Jaspreet. The mood was sombre at the bus stand as the survivors were returning back. Many broke down meeting their close ones. So far, over 5,000 rescued pilgrims have arrived at ISBT-43 in the past 5-6 days, said PRTC Inspector Mangat Khan. He said as more pilgrims from Punjab were reaching Rishikesh and Dehradun after being rescued from different parts of Uttarakhand, their buses were bringing them to Chandigarh. Around 60 buses have arrived with survivors and 30 buses are still parked in Rishikesh to bring back the rescued pilgrims, he said.
A physically challenged pilgrim from Bhatinda, Jaswant Singh, had a close brush with death on the way back from Hemkund Sahib. Recounting his experience at the Sector 43 ISBT, he said he got trapped in a landslide near Hemkund Sahib. Though his back was badly injured, he managed to escape, and sought assistance. “Even as I was in constant pain, the Almighty was with me throughout the ordeal,” he said

Won over death, but lost loved ones
Chandigarh, June 26 While one of them cries out loud calling his 10-year-old daughter’s name, another bangs his head on ground with grief as the sight of his wife and children being washed away haunts him. Oblivious of every thing happening around them, they rush towards every helicopter that lands carrying rescued victims on board, hoping that their family members are on board. This is a common sight for the past three days at Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun, where doctors have been forcefully feeding victims to keep them alive. “As the relief camp wears a gloomy look, helicopters bring some excitement as victims hope to see their family members among the rescued,” said Dr Manoj Kumar, emergency medical officer from Sacred Heart Hospital, Jalandhar, who volunteered to visit the relief camp at Dehradun. Doctors fear that some of the victims might slip into depression due to disappointment upon not finding any familiar faces among those rescued. Chander Pal Singh, a native of Rajasthan, lost all his eight family members in the floods. He has been madly searching for them at the relief camp. Another victim, Sukhjit Singh, who was heading to Hemkund Sahib from his native place in Nanded lost his entire family and is left alone. “These victims are reluctant to eat anything. We have been forcefully feeding them. Low blood pressure and dehydration is turning out to be a common problem among them,” said Dr Nirmal Raut, medical oncologist from Jupitar Hospital in Mumbai. The camp has been organised by a Panchkula-based NGO, Vishav Manav Ruhani Kendra, for free distribution of medicines to the flood-affected people. The doctors are volunteers of the society and a team of 70 volunteers has been accompanying them to the camp for carrying out other activities, including
langars.

Sangla officials showed no compassion: Survivor
Chandigarh, June 26 Rajiv (45), an immigrantion consultant had gone to an adventure camp, around 5 km from Sangla Valley, with his family, on June 15. However, heavy rain and landslide snapped the road connectivity. “We tried to trek to Sangla Valley, but heavy rain and continuous flowing of boulders from hills made it impossible,” he said. “Even as we were evacuated to Sangla Valley on June 19, the crisis was not over yet,” he said. Rajiv said that since road connectivity from Kinnaur to Rampur was devastated, the local officials were airlifting tourists to
Rampur. “Despite getting the family registered with the local tehsil office for airlifting on June 19, we had to wait for another three days, since the officials were giving preference to influential persons,” he said. To make quick bucks, the local hotels too jacked up prices, he said. “On June 21, I alone was airlifted. I tried to come out of the helicopter, but was not allowed. After reaching
Rampur, I made frantic calls to the local tehsil office in Sangla Valley to airlift my family, but they reached only next day. My wife and children were distressed, but the officials showed no compassion,” said
Rajiv.

City dispensaries not in the pink of health
Chandigarh, June 26
The civil dispensary in Sector 20, for instance, has its entrance flooded with dirty water, leaving no space for walking through. The problem has been there since the beginning of the monsoon season. The situation is similar around the civil dispensaries in Sectors 22, 26 and 45 that are visited by hundreds of people everyday. Ironically, while health department officials preach the message of malaria prevention and also boast about anti-larval activities, there is rarely any check on accumulation of rain water around dispensaries. “During their door-to-door visit at the peak of monsoons, officials give us tips on preventing malaria and the fine for violations. Here, however, there is no check on violations,” Anita Rana, a patient visiting the Sector 20 dispensary said. While the road in front of the Sector 22 dispensary lacks any gully, leading to accumulation of water, the entrance to Sector 26 dispensary has huge potholes. Residents must complain on helpline numbers We have issued strict instructions to our sub-divisional engineers to keep a tab on the waterlogging problem. There are certain areas that cannot be covered by us at all the times. The helpline numbers are available on our website. Residents must inform us and we will do the needful. Joint efforts have to be made along with the anti-malaria wing. — Subhash Chawla, Mayor, Municipal Corporation, Chandigarh

Major cut in SSA budget for UT
Chandigarh, June 26 Officials of the Education Department said the infrastructure projects proposed for schools in the current financial year would not be affected as the expenses for the proposed projects like constructing additional classrooms and new school buildings would be made through the state budget. “For instance, a budget of Rs.23 crore has already been sanctioned by the Chandigarh Administration for the construction of two new schools at Dhanas. More infrastructure projects will soon get the nod,” said a senior official. He said, “There has been cut in the SSA budget not only for the UT but also for all the states. The state managing to get budget of over Rs 58 crore sanctioned is a major achievement.” He said, “The foremost reason for cut is that the Central Government is shifting its focus from the SSA to the Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA), which is meant for classes IX and X.” “The budget approval meeting of the RMSA has already been held for Chandigarh and the education department was expecting a good financial support under this scheme,” said the sources. Among the core development expenses approved under the SSA, for providing free textbooks to children UT got Rs 1.45 crore, for school uniforms Rs 1.16 crore and a similar grant will be borne by the local administration also. The Central Government has also approved Rs 2.84 crore for the development of children who have never been to schools and Rs 99 Lakh and Rs 24 Lakh, respectively for the Cluster Resource Centres and Urban Resource Centres. As far as salary portion is concerned, Rs 48 crore has been approved for nearly 1,300 SSA teachers working in Chandigarh. Massive cut is for the infrastructure projects only. Against Rs 25 crore demanded by the Education Department for making additional classes and schools, only Rs 3 Lakh has been approved by the project approval committee of the Central Government. All the projects have been deferred for the next year. Development expenditures Heads

NSUI help desk opened at PU amid protest
Chandigarh, June 26 The PU had decided that there should not be more than ten party members at the help desk. All the student parties raised an objection after witnessing more than ten people on the help desk. The members of all the parties raised slogans against the PU officials demanding that the university should ensure that the rules are followed. “The university authorities play double standards as after instructing that no outsider will be allowed on the help desks; the desk of NSUI was full of outsiders,” said a member of the SOPU party. The Chandigarh police and PU authorities rushed to the scene to pacify the agitating students. The police was deployed on the campus to avoid any untoward incident. ABVP leader Dinesh Chauhan said that they didn’t have any problem with the minister visiting the campus; however, allowing outsiders at the help desk against the rules is not acceptable. “The university and Chandigarh police always make tall claims of making the campus violence free; however, when it comes to restricting the involvement of outsiders in the student politics the university fails in every aspect,” said Chauhan. Panjab University Students Union (PUSU) president Yadwinder Singh said that by allowing ministers to visit the campus for inaugurating the help desks clearly points that the university has been made platform for national politics. “University politics should be restricted between the students only, involving the national leaders spoils the spirit of student elections,” Singh said. The help desk of the PUSU party was also inaugurated by its founder member Jaskaran Brar.

JEE MAINS
Chandigarh, June 26 Last month, many city students claimed that they got less marks in the JEE (Main) exam, the result of which were announced on May 7. The exam was held both offline and online for admission in engineering courses in NITs and engineering courses across the country. The problem occurred for the students who took online exam from April 22 to April 25. Following the objections raised by the students, the
CBSE, on May 13 decided to provide a copy of the OMR sheet, answer key and calculation sheet for the JEE Mains against Rs 500.
Sahil Soni, one of the JEE aspirants from Chandigarh, said despite submitting the fee, the CBSE has yet not sent the required documents that could help them in evaluating their performance in the exam. “I am fully convinced that I have been given 15 scores less than I expected,” he said. Other students said they had matched their response sheet uploaded on the CBSE’s website with answer keys issued by various coaching centres and found that they had scored 10-15 marks less in the JEE (Main) result.
Karan Atri, another student, said: “the CBSE should not take this issue lightly as it will soon announce the final ranking of the JEE mains. It should send the answer keys and the OMR sheets before its declaration so that their doubts should be removed.” Another student said the CBSE should upload the answer keys of both offline and online JEE (Main) exams to remove the confusion.
