Police harassing my son: Partap Singh Sirsa, March 28 Showing newspaper clippings on the recent episode, he tried to expose the police. He said that Amarjeet Singh, on whose complaint, the Dabwali police had registered the case against Ravi Chautala had also levelled a similar charge against the Dabwali police and had complained to the Punjab Chief Minister, the DGP, the Punjab and the Haryana High Court and the Human Rights Commission of Punjab. In these complaints a reference had also been made to an ASI and some other persons close to the ruling government. This incident reportedly happened on March 3 in Dumwali, Punjab. Mr Partap Singh expressed surprise at Amarjeet voicing accusations against the Punjab Police for robbing him of his car, but not reporting to the Dabwali police about this matter that day. After 20 days the Dabwali police hurriedly registered a case on the complaint of this man against Ravi Chautala and made raids at his Dabwali and Chautala houses to arrest him. All this exposed the police, he added. Mr Partap said he would soon meet the Governor and the PM in this connection. |

HIGH COURT
Chandigarh, March 28 In a ruling on a petition
filed by Ram Singh and others against the state of Haryana, the Bench,
comprising Mr Justice V.M. Jain and Mr Justice Viney Mittal, observed:
“When the respondent authorities themselves considered the claim of
the petitioners for promotion from an earlier date as justified, then
there was absolutely no reason to deny them the arrears”. Allowing
the petition, the Judges also directed the state and the other
respondents to release the arrears of salary to all the petitioners,
along with all consequential benefits from the date of their
promotion. The Judges also quashed the “stipulation in an order
whereby it was maintained that the petitioner would not be entitled to
the arrears”. Mr Ram Kumar and the other petitioner were initially
appointed as clerks in Department of Technical Education. They were
later regularised and promoted as Assistants. Notice Taking up a
petition accusing the head of an Ambala-based religious organisation
of blackmailing women into physical exploitation after making them
unconscious, the Punjab and Haryana High Court on Friday issued notice
of motion for July 11. In his petition against the state of Haryana,
Additional Director-General of Police (Crime), the Central Bureau of
Investigation and other respondents, Tikak Raj of SAS Nagar, had
earlier alleged that objectionable photographs were taken after making
the women unconscious by mixing something in the parshad. They were
later blackmailed. |

Yadvindra Gardens
to have theme park Pinjore, March 28 Sources in the Tourism Department said the amusement park would be created on approximately 3 acres on one side of the gardens near the newly constructed site museum. The project, to be built at a cost of Rs 3 crore, had been allotted to High Point Amusement Park Private
Limited. Mrs Navraj Sandhu, Managing Director, Haryana Tourism, confirmed that the work on the park would begin this week and it would be thrown open to tourists before May. The tourist flow to the gardens had been adversely affected since the mini-zoo here was closed down three years ago. The park would connect the gardens with the site museum and the Bhima Devi temple. A number of statues and other artifacts excavated from the temple site would be displayed here. The museum was likely to be opened to the public within a couple of months. Earlier, the state Wildlife Department had proposed to set up an aviary of international standards here. However, because of paucity of funds and the Supreme Court coming down heavily on the state Wildlife Department, the proposal had been shelved.
