Gurgaon
plots: MLA seeks White Paper CHANDIGARH, July 27 — Mr Karan Singh Dalal, the lone Republican Party of India (RPI) member in the Haryana Assembly, yesterday ridiculed Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala’s call to fight against corruption and said while Mr Chautala was raking up graft cases to corner his political opponents, he was carefully avoiding taking any action against the big sharks. Naming at least two former chief ministers of Haryana who, according to Mr Dalal, have amassed huge wealth, the RPI MLA alleged that Mr Chautala would not set any inquiry against them because he knew that they could again become chief ministers and take Mr Chautala to task. Mr Dalal, who was addressing a press conference here, said that former Revenue Minister Anand Singh Dangi and former Finance Minister Charan Dass Shorewala’s son, against whom the State Vigilance Bureau has set up corruption cases, were "small fries", and called upon the Chief Minister to set up an inquiry by a sitting Supreme Court judge to look into the assets of all political heavyweights and ministers and former ministers of Haryana. Earlier, Mr Dalal, who has already distinguished himself by exposing a number of land scams in the Gurgaon area, issued a statement to mediapersons with fresh allegations about release of plots in the Gurgaon area by the state government to private parties causing losses to the state exchequer. According to Mr Dalal’s statement, a huge chunk of land was acquired in Gurgaon for residential and commercial purposes by the Haryana Urban Development Authority, which spent crores of rupees for the development of the land. However, one acre land (plot no 80) in Sector 34, Gurgaon, in khasra no. 692/2 was released in favour of M/s Industriano (P) Ltd. Another 2.38 acres of land from this area, in Sector 42, Gurgaon in khasra nos. 532/1/1, 533/1/1/1 and 534/1/1 falling in Chakkarpur village was released in favour of Mr Sukhbir Singh, Mr Mam Raj and Ms Saroj. " The state exchequer has lost more than Rs 10 crore on account of release of these plots, which was done without any valid or cogent reason...", Mr Dalal’s statement alleged. One of the recipients had entered into litigations with the state government for the possession of the plot, which was withdrawn following the release of the plot to the party. Mr Dalal alleged that the state government had no reason to ask the party to withdraw the case and release the plot to it and said that the whole thing was a big scam. The RPI MLA demanded that the government must issue a White Paper on the plots released by it after Mr Om Prakash Chautala came to power in Haryana. Meanwhile, an official statement refuted the allegations levelled by Mr Dalal regarding the release of land in Gurgaon. The statement, issued by a HUDA spokesman, said the state government had a policy regarding land release cases in which the parties had gone to courts against land acquisition proceedings and subsequently procured stay orders due to which the execution of major roads and laying of master services were held up. The previous government, in which Mr Dalal was a minister, had constituted a sub-committee of ministers to consider the release of lands of such category, the statement said, and added that the present government reconstituted the sub-committee to consider such cases of release of lands recommended by a task force of officers. The statement said the land release to M/s Industriano was at a strategic location that all trunk services like sewerage, water, road to that large area was not possible without it. The development of an electronic hardware technology park and large area out of the 300 acre industrial commercial sector of 33 and 34 would have been left undeveloped had the land not been offered for release, the statement claimed. As for the release of land to M/s
Sukhbir Singh and others and grant of commercial licence is concerned,
it was considered in accordance with the policy approved by the
erstwhile government in February 1997 and the government decided in
principle on May 15, 2000, to release this land for the issue of
commercial licence since the party had purchased the land before the
issue of notification under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act,
1894. The state government will also get a lot of money in the form of
licence fee, security fee, conversion charges etc from the plots and
there was no question of causing any loss to the state exchequer, the
statement said. |

Rohtak
civic body meeting on July 29 ROHTAK, July 27 — The government has decided to constitute the local municipal committee after a lapse of over three months. The Sub-Divisional Magistrate, Rohtak, has convened a meeting of the newly-elected municipal councillors on July 29 at 3 pm to elect new president and vice president. MP from the Rohtak parliamentary constituency and MLA from city have the right to vote and participate in the proceedings of the municipal committee besides the 30 elected municipal councillors. Surprisingly, legislators from the Kiloi and the Hassangarh Assembly segments have not been nominated as members of the municipal committee though some parts of their respective assembly constituencies fall in the municipal limits. The elections to the municipal committee were held on April 2 and the oath was administered to the newly-elected members on April 25. Though the first meeting of the newly elected members was convened on May 25, it was adjourned for want to quorum. Since then uncertainty prevailed among the members as the government did not appear keen to convene another meeting for electing the president and vice president. As no political party has majority in the municipal committee 16 independent members, have formed their group and staked claims to the post of president and vice president. The BJP is the only party which contested the municipal elections on its symbol but it could win only five seats. Five other BJP activists, who were denied tickets, were also elected as Independent candidates. After the elections, these members have reportedly been re-admitted to the party. The 16 newly-elected municipal councillors, led by former minister Subhash Batra and zila parishad chairman Dharam Pal Singh, had met the Chief Minister, Mr Om Prakash Chautala at Chandigarh on Tuesday last to express their confidence in his leadership. These members reportedly requested Mr Chautala to nominee any person of his choice to the post of president and vice president and assured to elect his nominees. The meeting of the
municipal councillors on July 29, has reportedly been convened by the
administration on the advice of the Chief Minister. Two other members,
who owe allegiance to Mr Balwant Singh Myna, MLA from Hassangarh have
also reportedly extended support to the 16-member group. |

aapke dwar’ scheme to be resumed YAMUNANAGAR, July 27 — The Haryana Government has decided to restart the ‘sarkar aapke dwar’ programme from October 2, on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti to provide facilities at the doorstep of the masses in the state. This was announced by Mr Om Prakash Chautala, Chief Minister, while addressing a meeting of district officers organised at the local Canal Rest House today. He said that in the welfare and the developmental programmes implemented by the state government, officers should play an important role in the rural and urban areas. He suggested that while tackling the problems of the public, they would show respect for the masses and implement these development and welfare activities with dedication and devotion. If the officials use negligency while performing their duties in their day to day work, it will create problems for them. Mr Rajeev Sharma, Deputy Commissioner, stated that under the ‘sarkar aapke dwar’ programme, the Chief Minister had made 700 announcements, out of which 90 per cent development works had been completed besides the construction of roads. The district administration had been provided a sum of Rs 6.21 crore by the state government under the Haryana Rural Development Fund Scheme.

He said that under the campaign, all district headquarters would be covered by August 14. He appealed to the workers to give full support to strengthen the party organisation and make efforts to make people aware of the propaganda made by the Opposition. Mr Lachhman Dass Kanri and Mr Shamsher Singh Kamboj, members of the Zila Parishad, announced their induction into the INLD along with their supporters on leaving the Bahujan Samaj Party. Both leaders alleged that they were leaving the BSP due to the anti-Dalit policy of their state President, Mr Aman Kumar Nagra. The MLA from Sadhaura and District
President of the INLD, Mr Balwant Singh, General Secretary, Mr Raj
Kumar Saini, the Secretary-General, Dr M.C. Gambhir and the Chairman

Ambala lacks proper drainage AMBALA, July 27 — This is a city where the shortage of drinking water is perennial but during the rainy season water logging is common. The Arya School road is the worst affected as hundreds of school children have to cross the road daily. PKR Jain Public School, A.S. Senior Secondary School and PKR Jain Girls Senior Secondary School and the Sohan Lal DAV College of Education are located along the road. The total strength of the three schools is around 7,000. During the rainy season the road remains under three to four feet of water for days together. Some of the localities like Friends Colony too have to face the problem. Some days ago water entered many houses. As there is no proper drainage system, water from many colonies flow down to this area. Moreover, the level of the road is very low. Mr V. Sachdeva, a resident of this colony said, “We are living in the hell. Even after a moderate rain our colony is waterlogged and we have to vacate our ground floor to save our carpets and other goods.” The administration has assured to solve their problem before the next rainy season but the residents are not very hopeful. One of the residents said, “We should not be given the treatment of second class citizen by the authorities.” The government district-level TB Hospital is also located on this road. During recent rains the hospital was under two feet of water. The road has been damaged badly. The district administration has started a drainage scheme for this area. Deputy Commissioner Ram Niwas has already
given his consent to this scheme and directed the civic authorities to implement the scheme immediately. |
