Mann awaiting Tohra’s return Sangrur, April 12 This was stated by Mr Simranjit Singh Mann, president of the Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar), while talking to mediapersons here today. Mr Mann said all political parties opposing the Congress, the SAD and the BJP would be approached for induction into the proposed third front. He said this front would contest all 117 Assembly seats in Punjab. However, he did not disclose his party’s share in the tickets allotted. Mr Mann also said a common minimum programme would be chalked out to the satisfaction of all constituents after the formation of the front. He said leaders of various political parties, including Bhai Jasbir Singh Rode, Jathedar Kuldip Singh Wadala, Mr Ravi Inder Singh and others would address a political conference at Talwandi Sabo tomorrow. He said he along with the SHSAD leaders would also address the public from this stage. Reacting to the statement of Mr Harkishan Singh Surjit, general secretary of the CPM, that communal parties like the SAD (A) and the SHSAD would not be included in the national-level third front, Mr Mann said Mr Surjit wanted the Congress and the BJP to benefit by keeping these parties out of the third front. He also criticised Mr Surjit for issuing such a statement. Mr Mann also demanded the DNA and forensic tests on decomposed bodies-found from the Sutlej near Ferozepore. He claimed the skeletons were of those Sikhs who had been murdered by the Army and the police since Operation Blue Star. Regarding the arrest of Wassan Singh Zaffarwal, chief of the Khalistan Commando Force (KCF), Mr Mann claimed that he had surrendered before the police after having talks with Mr Parkash Singh Badal. He demanded talks held between Zaffarwal and Mr Badal be made public. |

Rally over Tehelka
expose on April 16 Jalandhar, April 12 Talking to mediapersons at Congress Bhavan here today, Mr Surjewala, alleged that Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee should resign on moral grounds since his son-in-law Ranjan Bhattacharya, National Security Adviser, Brijesh Mishra and N.K. Singh of Prime Minister’s Office were allegedly involved in corrupt practices in defence deals. The inquiry commission set up by the BJP government to probe the role of politicians, bureaucrats and ministers in defence deals, was mere an eyewash since the Prime Minister had already declared that his ministers and officials in PMO were not involved in negotiations of any defence deal. Mr Vajpayee had also given a clean chit to the former Defence Minister, Mr George Fernandes by retaining him as the convener of the NDA, said Mr Surjewala. “National security rally will be an effort to expose the true face of the BJP among the countrymen. The rally will be addressed by all senior Congress leaders, Congress Working Committee members and MPs”, he added. |

Govt’s way of thanking martyrs Bathinda, April 12 The land allotted was barren so she sold it and started living at Jawaharke in Mansa district. Because of poverty she could not provide education to her son and two daughters. All that she gets now is Rs 1,800 per month which is not sufficient to run the family. Mrs Tej Kaur is not the only woman who feels neglected by the authorities. There were about 70 war widows, who came here for attending he Veer Naris Meet organised by the Chetak Army Wives Welfare Association (AWWA) held at the local military station today. The condition of Mrs Sukhdev Kaur, whose husband Karm Singh had died in the 1971 Indo-Pakistan war is even worse. Telling her story of woes she said merely after two-and-a-half years after their
marriage her husband made the sacrifice for the motherland. She never married again considering that it was the will of the Almighty that she should spend her life alone. She had no children. She was given 10 acres at Bambiha village in Bathinda district. But it did not help her in any way. The neighbours thinking that she was alone and helpless grabbed the land. She is not even aware of how to get legal aid. The story of Mrs Surjit Kaur, who lost her husband Gurdev Singh in the 1962 Sino-India war and whose only son was working as a labourer at Jatana Kalan village of Mansa district is no different The pension of Rs 1,900 per month could not fill the gap that was created after the loss of the bread earner of the family. She was given 10 acres in Malout region but it was of no use as it was barren. Harbhajan Singh lost his life in 1995 while facing the militants in Jammu and Kashmir and the government ordered a pension of Rs 4,200 per month to his wife Jaswinder Kaur, who lives in a joint family at Mandhali village in Mansa district. She said although the monetary help by the government was not sufficient but her condition was better than the others. There were a number of widows, who told the same story to the correspondent. They were not satisfied with the aid the government gave them. But those, whose husbands had died in the “1962, 1965 and 1971 wars were facing more problems. They alleged that the land given to them, if any was barren and was just an eyewash. They urged the government that free education should be provided to their children and the land given to them should be near the villages where they were residing. The widows were given gifts by the chief guest. |

‘PUDA
constructing illegal structures’ Patiala, April 12 A complaint to this effect was forwarded by Mr Harbhajan Singh Virk, sarpanch of the Gram Panchayat, Karheri, to the Additional Deputy Commissioner (ADC), Mr Vikas Pratap during a sangat darshan held in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner here today. The complainant said the colonisers wanted to establish unauthorised colonies in the vicinity of the Karheri village. Mr Virk claimed that no action had been taken by the PUDA, despite the fact that more than a year had passed since the illegal structures started coming up. The open spaces left in order to attract customers were being sold with the connivance of revenue staff and officials of the sub-registrar’s office. He alleged that even the proposed streets have been blocked so that these might not be used by the public. Mr Virk further alleged that the PUDA administration had also blocked the passage of Khasra number 13, measuring 4B-8B, which had been in existence for the past hundred years. The plea of the PUDA administration is that they have blocked the passage in order to safeguard the interests of the villagers, which the villagers refuse to accept. The ADC has asked the PUDA Estate Officer to stop the unauthorised establishment of colonies in the village and submit the report within 15 days. The ADC has appealed to the people to bring their cases first under the notice of the authorities at the block level or the subdivisional level. He added that the people should bring their cases under the notice of sangat darshan only if they were not resolved at the lower levels as this would save their time as well as money. |

Historical richness of Talwandi Sabo Talwandi Sabo, April 12 Due to its historical and religious importance, Talwandi Sabo was recognised as the fifth Takht of the Sikhs and known as Takht Damdama Sahib. It also houses the head quarters of the 96 Crori Baba Budha Dal sect led by Baba Santa Singh. Every year on April 13, a Baisakhi mela is organised here. Lakhs of people throng this place to pay their obeisance at various historical gurdwaras and to take a dip in the sarovar of Takht Damdama Sahib. According to historical facts, for the first time in 1515 AD, Guru Nanak Dev stopped here on way from Sirsa to Sultanpur. During his brief stay here, he predicted that this place would become an important religious place. Guru Teg Bahadur visited it after 159 years of Guru Nanak Dev’s visit in 1674 AD. After 31 years, Guru Gobind Singh blessed this land when he visited it in the later part of 1705 AD. Hundreds of years ago, the Saraswati used to flow here, and the Sutlej used to flow near Bathinda (Vikramgarh) town. These rivers changed their course with the passage of time and the land became barren. In the Sikh religious history, only two Talwandis are famous. One is Talwandi Rai Bhoa now known as Nankana Sahib in Pakistan, where Guru Nanak Dev was born and second is Talwandi Sabo where Guru Gobind Singh completed “damdami beer”. Guru Gobind Singh also prepared four copies of “damdami beer” here and these were sent to other Takhts. The quills which were used by Bhai Mani Singh and Baba Deep Singh for writing them were immersed in the sarovar after the work was over. The place where the “damdami beer” was written is known as Likhansar and later the Guru Gobind Singh called it “Guiru ki Kashi”. According to an English historian, more than 20,000 people were administered “amrit” at Anandpur Sahib on the occasion of the first Baisakhi. On Baisakhi, several people from various places, including foreign countries, come here to have a glimpse of weapons and other articles belonging to Guru Gobind Singh. |

Plea to charge power bills by meter Bathinda, April 12 He said the quantitative restrictions had been lifted from April 1 and this would lead to massive import of consumer and other goods, thereby the local industry would have to face increased competition. Coupled with this, the decision of state government to charge electricity bills on a flat-rate basis would prove disastrous for the small industrial units. Mr Bansal said the state government had recently installed electronic meters in the industrial units on which it had spent crores of rupees. All that money would be a waste if the meters were not put to effective use. |

3 Central projects for dairy sector Fatehgarh Sahib, April 12 He said until we have the basic facilities, we could not compete with other milk producing countries. He said with the Central aid, a regional diagnostic laboratory was being set up at Jalandhar, costing Rs 19 crore. Milch animals would be diagnosed. The laboratory would also cater to the needs of Haryana and Himachal Pradesh. Similarly, another laboratory to test the efficacy of vaccination on animals was being set up at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, at a cost of Rs 65 crore. He said the Centre had also sanctioned a health project worth Rs 50 crore pertaining to 100 per cent artificial insemination of animals. He said the government had also floated tenders globally to get disease-free animal semen. He said these steps were being taken to counter the effects of the WTO pact. He revealed that at present the milk produced in the country was not fit for human consumption. According to a report, bacterial contents in our milk were 2 million, whereas in the milk produced all over the world, particularly Europe and the USA, it was 50,000 only. He said it was so because they had disease-free animals. Mr B.S. Sudan, Deputy Commissioner, highlighted various schemes and projects initiated in the district to provide better health facilities to humans and animals. |

Sowing
of cotton hybrid seeds emphasised Bathinda, April 12 Mr Desai, who was in the city in connection with a seminar was talking to The Tribune yesterday said the main reason behind the decline in the area under cotton cultivation was that the farmers here were not getting good seeds. He said the cost of production of hybrid seed was more in Punjab than in Gujarat. The MD said labour was cheap in other states than Punjab, thus the production was less costly there. He added that they had started the production of seeds in northern states on an experimental basis about three years ago. He said they had established a centre at Surat where they were doing research regarding different varieties of cotton. He further said H-6 and H-8 varieties were developed by their scientists at the centre. He stated that they were developing special hybrids for Punjab and Haryana. Mr Desai said hybrid seeds being used in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, etc., but the northern states were not using these seeds. He said the per acre yield in Punjab and Haryana was going down in the past few years. He added that the farmers were not happy due to the decreasing profit in the cultivation of the crop. The MD added that the Government of India had also started a project to promote the use of hybrid seeds. He said Nagpur was the main centre for research on cotton. He further said the work for the improvement of the seed had reached various stages in different states. He said a meeting of scientists of various private and government institutions would be held in Hisar in Haryana, where progress achieved by them would be discussed. Mr Desai said for Punjab seeds, which grow in a short period, would be
successful so that these could be planted in time after the cultivation of cotton. |

Dry spell in Dhar areas Gurdaspur, April 12 The MLA of the area who is a Cabinet minister has so far failed to secure any economic aid for the residents of the area.

Future of 74 students in jeopardy Faridkot, April 12 As many as 74 students, who have become eligible for taking admissions in MD/MS and diploma courses in the DMC after clearing counselling held by the BFUHS authorities, have been running from pillar to post to join the courses of their choice, but without success. Sources said the DMC management, which had filed a writ petition against the notification of the Punjab Government on admission to various medical postgraduate courses for different medical colleges in the state, had not allowed these students to join their respective courses on the basis that they would wait for the court decision as the next date of hearing was fixed on April 16. On the other hand, the students were worried over the fact that the BFUHS authorities had fixed April 16 as deadline for them to deposit their tuition fee in the DMC. Official sources said the DMC management had written a letter to the BFUHS authorities to extend the last date for joining medical courses in the DMC as it would be convenient for the students. But the BFUHS authorities, while declining the request of the DMC management, had asked them to allow the students to join their respective courses as the Punjab and Haryana High Court had not granted any stay regarding the notification of the state government. Dr J.S. Gujral, Vice-Chancellor, BFUHS, when contacted, said when the DMC management had failed to get any stay against the operation of the notification of the state government than why it had not been allowing the eligible students to join their respective courses. He added that earlier no representative of the DMC management participated in the counselling, which was done as per the notification of the state government. He said all instructions of the state government were binding on the BFUHS and competitive test was also held according to the notification. However, the students, who have failed to get admission in the DMC, alleged that they were being made to suffer because of the dispute. They added that both authorities had been giving a cold response to their grievances. They said they had even been failed to know the fee structure of the DMC management. The students also pointed out that when they were interviewed they were assured by the BFUHS authorities that they would get admissions in the DMC, but now the same authorities had been expressing their helplessness and advising them to approach the court for the redress of their grievances. Dr Gujral said the fee structure of any institution could not violate the directions issued in that connection by the state government and the Supreme Court. He added that the DMC management should not obstruct the implementation of the notification and should allow the students to join their respective courses. |

Funds not given to revive varsity Chairs Jalandhar, April 12 Mr Parkash Singh Badal had announced in the birth anniversary function of Guru Ravidas here on February 8 that funds would be provided to the university for the revival of Chairs named after Bhagat Namdev, Guru Ravidas, Bhagat Kabir and Dr B.R. Ambedkar after the Majitha byelection. But that promise is yet to be fulfilled. Due to lack of funds and following a November 15, 2000, Syndicate decision, the Chairs were suspended. The university had also repatriated all the four chairmen and subordinate staff to their respective parent departments, leading to a halt in the research work. Bhagat Ravidas Chair had been set up on February 26, 1997, by the then Congress government and Dr Jasbir Singh Sabar was appointed its Chairman. Two books — “Bhagat Ravidas Sarot Pustak” and “Paawan Gatha Guru Ravidas” — had been published by the Chair during 1997-98. The decision to suspend the chairs would deprive the people of state, especially the younger generation, of an opportunity to know about the teachings and objectives of the saints, said Dr Sabar. The research work in the Bhagat Namdev Chair, instituted on July 2, 1997, had got stuck after retirement of Dr Iqbal Kaur Sondh, who was heading the Chair, in April 1999. No new appointment was made to fill the vacancy, the sources said. Dr Iqbal Kaur had reportedly admitted that initially research work had been initiated for translation of the Marathi version of “Baani” of Bhagat Namdev into “Gurmukhi” and some work had been done in the form of “Namdev Sandharbh Kosh”. But it was left midway for lack of money. “I had to spend money for purchasing books from my pocket and no research fellow was provided to me,” she had said. Similarly, Sant Kabir Chair, instituted on February 26, 1997, had published four books. Likewise, Dr B.R. Ambedkar Chair had been set up in March 1997, under Dr Harish Puri. |

Ranjit Singh Chair not set
up
Patiala, April 12 According to a government letter, the university was asked to make arrangements for the creation of the Chair in its budget for the year 1999-2000 and that a report be sent to the government in this regard. At present though the university has been assigned the task of holding seminars on Maharaja Ranjit Singh in Delhi and Patiala and translating Persian books pertaining to that era as also the Lahore Darbar papers, and Maharaja Ranjit Singh Chair is being established in Guru Nanak Dev University. The Punjabi University Teachers Association (PUTA) in a statement today said it was surprising that the Chair was being established in Guru Nanak Dev University when it had been sanctioned for Punjabi University. The PUTA president, Dr B.S. Khaira, and the secretary, Dr Balwinder Singh, said the Chair was shifted due to the ‘’negligence, carelessness and autocratic’’ functioning of Punjabi University authorities. Accusing the Vice-Chancellor of being busy in non-academic activities, the association appealed to him and the government to ensure the Chair came up in Punjabi University only. The university Vice-Chancellor, Dr Jasbir Singh Ahluwalia, said he was not aware of the earlier government decision to establish the Chair in Punjabi University. He said he wished that the Chair could be established in Patiala, but did not wish to compete with a sister university in this regard. He said if the government, however, gave money for the establishment of the Chair in Patiala, the university would take prompt action in the matter. The university teachers’ association, meanwhile, according to a press note took serious note of the cutting of trees and removal of green patches in the centre of the university. It said this not only disturbed the master plan of the university but was also against the policy to conserve natural resources. The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad at a meeting presided over by its Punjab Secretary Subhash Sharma today accused the university authorities of victimising the former campus unit president of the party by delaying the release of his fifth semester law examination result. Mr Sharma said in case the victimisation was not set right immediately, the ABVP would initiate a state-level dharna on the issue. He also urged the state Chief Minister to hold elections to the Students Council in the university to end exploitation of students by the authorities. |

Glaring
errors in B.Com English paper Bathinda, April 12 Thousands of students belonging to Bathinda, Mansa, Patiala, Faridkot, Sangrur and Ropar, who appeared in the examination this evening, expressed concern over the increasing frequency of such mistakes in university papers. Students said it was not the first time that the question paper was out of syllabus or it had mistakes. A few days ago, the question paper of B.Com (I) was also reported to be out of syllabus and Mr S. Marriya, Principal DAV College, had written to the university authorities in this connection. “They keep experimenting with the syllabus, style, marks distribution and marking pattern just for fun. The syllabus issued by the university should be treated as binding on paper setters, but it is not the case. The instructions of the syllabus are violated openly,” Anu (name changed) alleged. The students said in question number 3 (a) part (iv), “answer” was spelt “anwer” and in question 3 (b) part (i) it was ‘the’ instead of ‘they’, question 3 (b) part (vii) it was ‘he’ instead of ‘it’. Interestingly, there was confusion on the number of questions in the exam also. Due to a printing mistake, there was no question number 4 in the question paper, and some of the students attempted it by ‘mistake’ while some others supposed that the question number 3 (a) onwards was actually question number 4 onwards. In a part of the question paper, it was mentioned that ‘the point of question is underlined’, but no where in the question any part was underlined. In question number 5 (b) part (i) relating to completion of proverbs, the statement read as ‘blood in thicker’ instead of ‘blood is thicker’. |
