Ritual murder Meerut, February 8 The so-called tantrik of the village is being interrogated by the police in this connection. But the matter is yet to be solved as the police are working on several leads. According to the parents of Chand, he was flying a kite on February 3. After a while, he came back home, changed his shirt and left in a hurry. The family members thought that he went out for playing again. The parents waited for sometime and then started looking for him. They also reported the matter to the police on February 4. The boy’s headless decomposed body was found from the sugarcane field of Rohtas in the jungle of Pathanpur village on Saturday night. The body seemed at least three days old. The material evidence on the spot corroborated the theory of a human sacrifice. The Kanker Khera Police Station SHO confirmed that the boy had been sacrificed. Several senior police officials also visited the spot. Meanwhile, the so-called tantrik of the village Khase was taken into custody and was being interrogated. A considerable tension gripped the village as the news of the boy sacrifice spread in the village. Police force was deployed in the village to avert any untoward incident. |

You thought you were safe from air pollution indoors? Think again New Delhi, February 8 Addressed as ‘Indoor pollution’, the problem in some cases is acute. Researchers have found out that the level of indoor pollution sometimes exceeds the outdoor levels by 200 to 500 per cent. This was pointed out by two researchers in their papers read at a seminar on Energy and Environment held at the Jamia Millia University here. Indoor pollutants are not easily dispersed or diluted as those found outdoors, the paper reads. The degree of risk depends on, how strong the source of emission is, the level and duration of exposure and the state of ventilation in a building. This startling fact has demolished the myths that we are protected from the air pollution indoors. The false sense of security is heightened when the homes and offices are air-conditioned. Besides homes and offices, the indoor environment also includes restaurants, factories and vehicles interiors. In a conditioned space, since free passage of air is limited, substances emitted inside a building do not disperse but accumulate. Indoor Air Pollution (IAP) is a more serious environmental problem in the developing countries. Despite increasing attention being paid to the issue, there is very little awareness of the problem as compared to the ambient air pollution. In 1992, the World Bank designated IAP in developing countries as one of the four most critical global environmental problems. The most dangerous source of IAP is cooking. According to a UNDP World Energy Assessment, a relatively small amount of pollution can have a big impact on health if it is released at a time and place when people are present. So, it is necessary to look not only where the pollution is but also where the people are. Earlier human comfort in a building was primarily measured in terms of temperature, humidity and odour. Today, comfort is also measured by indoor air quality, lighting and background noise level. Defining air quality or acceptable air quality is not easy. According to the Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI), the indoor air quality refers to the physical, chemical and biological characteristic of air in the indoor environment within a building. All indoor-generated pollutants result from human activity or choice. There are broadly four kinds of pollutants—those that are formed in the combustion process for heating and cooking, the ones derived from construction and furnishing materials or those related to human activity or presence.. The pollutants from the above sources may include radon, the environmental tobacco smoke, carbon monoxide which is a volatile organic compound, oxides of nitrogen and sulphur like the lead and respirable particulate matter like asbestos. Kitchens are the places where most combustion-generated pollutants are present, affecting mostly women who spend several hours in cooking at homes. A study conducted in east Delhi found that in houses where cooking gas was used as fuel, the concentration of pollutants was significantly higher indoors than outdoors. If improperly adjusted cooking gas appliance is used, the concentration of CO is higher in kitchen and living rooms. The ventilation in Indian kitchens is generally very poor. Another study found that women using mixed fuels (biomass and dung) have more respiratory problems than those using LPG. This situation prevails in all types of indoor environments, both rural and urban, the researchers said. |

Life’s hard knocks Ghaziabad, February 8 Sandeep Panwar, a resident of Raj Nagar Colony in Loni, was married on April 5, 2000 to Lovely, alias Chanchal, daughter of Dharampal of Chohlda village in Bagpat. According to Sandeep, his father-in-law Dharampal, brother-in-law Deepak and a relative Satyander came to his house recently. The trio beat him up, took away his wife and also some of his belongings. He had filed a report with the Loni police the same day and lodged a written complaint with the SSP Ghaziabad also. However, the police have not taken any action so far. On the other hand, Sandeep alleges, his wife and her relatives have filed a false dowry case against him in the women cell of the Delhi police by giving a fictitious address in Delhi. Since then, he has been knocking at the doors of Delhi police and Ghaziabad police, but in vain.
Traffic held up Sonepat: A large number of residents, including women, held up traffic on the Sonepat-Rohtak Road near Harsana Kalan village, about 8 km from here last evening in protest against the disruption in power supply in the village. According to a report, the movement of traffic on this road remained affected for two hours and a large number of vehicles were lined up on both sides of the road, causing inconvenience to the commuters. On receipt of information, the officials of the Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (UHBVN) reached the spot and lifted the road blockade by assuring them that a regular supply of electricity would be maintained in the village. The residents of the village pointed out that the gram panchayat had donated 10 acres for the construction of 132 KV grid power sub-station in the village. However, the power supply in the village was always inadequate and erratic. They warned that if the supply was not ensured round the clock, they will intensify the agitation against the government and the UHBVN.

Special Focus on SONEPAT Sonepat, February 8 Large number of cows and buffaloes, which should be confined to sheds in dairy colonies, are left free to roam the streets for grazing on the lush lawns of the parks and public gardens in various residential colonies and urinate and defecate on the roads. Similarly, most of the city’s roads have been invaded by donkeys and pigs posing not just a traffic hazards, but a serious health hazards as well. It is common sight to see cows, donkeys and pigs on the main roads. Insanitary conditions apart, the malodour is over-powering so much so that at times motorists stuck in a traffic jams are forced to roll up their car windows. Residential colonies inhabited by both the affluent and poorer sections have not been spared the onslaught of stray cattle and pigs. Cattle squatting in narrow, unkempt and filthy lanes and bylanes in colonies create insanitary conditions as well as posing a problem for the auto vehicles negotiating the lanes. Dairy owners are seen in every street of the city and they keep their animals in violation of the municipal by laws. Insignificant efforts by the municipal council to catch the stray cattle, ridiculously low penal fee for impounding cattle, the case with which the cattle owner can get his animal freed simply by producing a letter of recommendation decision ordering cattle owners out of residential colonies are the prime reasons for the continuing menace. The stray cattle population on the roads has increased considerably and the herds of stray cattle have made the roads their homes during the day and night. The employees of the municipal council are helpless to catch them without the vehicles needed to impound the cattler. Similarly, the menace of pigs has assumed an alarming proportion, thanks to the failure of the authorities concerned to catch them. Meanwhile, unauthorised hawkers and vendors are a public nuisance, as they create insanitary and slum like conditions, traffic chaos and social hazards. It is necessary to evolve a clear cut policy regarding the hawkers and their licensing. Prosecution has to be made more stringent otherwise the problem will assume grim overtones. It is true that the hawkers and vendors are given encouragement to stay where they are by corrupt staff of various officials agencies as well as the political bosses. Thus, the hawkers prefer
encroaching public and municipal land and this suits the officials as it keeps their pockets lined. In Ashok Nagar, a thickly populated area of the city, not a single squatter has been paying any licence fee to the MC and the staff did not care to challan them, despite the fact that the shopkeepers and rehriwalas selling the vegetables and fruit create insanitary and slum like conditions in the main streets. |

Lack of facilities upsets visitors at Surajkund fair Faridabad, February 8 One of the main problems experienced and noticed by many visitors to the mela site here is that visitors find no place to take some rest while traversing the undulating topography here. “There is no place where one can take rest as it is nearly impossible to keep walking or standing all the time on the premises and especially when one is accompanied by family and kids,” commented Saurabh Duggal, a resident of Sector- 16 –A, here. He said there were no benches or sitting platforms for the visitors and the latter have to either squat on the ground or look for the chairs put up by the food stall owners, who normally do not allow them to sit if they do not make an order for some eatables.” He said it looks that if there had been some understanding between the food stall owners and the organisers not to provide any chairs or benches except at such spots. He said the authorities should have constructed a large number of benches on the sides of the pathways so that visitors could have a place to take a rest. He said majority of the people come for an outing for the whole day and it was not possible for them to go out of the mela boundary for having a rest on the lawns outside as their ticket would not be able to get them a re-entry. Mr Ajay Kumar Giri, a regular visitor to the mela, claimed that he had tendered many suggestions regarding the provision of rest facilities to the people, but no action had been taken so far. Many of the families could be seen taking a rest on the furniture items kept there for sale. One of the furniture stall owners also admitted that the cane sofas and chairs he had put there were being used by the women and kids for sitting for some time. The spots, like the ‘mela chaupal’ and places where the cultural programmes and folk dances were being presented, have also no proper sitting arrangements as majority of the audience here have to keep standing while the government officials and their families are made available the chairs known as ‘Mudhas’ in the local language. The chaupal has about two dozen of ‘Mudhas’, which is quite insufficient keeping in view the number of people watching the cultural show. The authorities hold at least four to five different kind of shows for two or three times daily at the chaupal. According to a report, some girls who dared to sit on the ‘Mudhas’ kept near the announcement spot were rudely told to keep off from there in an indecent manner by a woman official of the Tourism Department. The officials normally keep a watch on the visitors who try to take a seat at the chaupal and do not hesitate to order vacation of the chairs. It is quite significant that the chaupal is not only the central place at the site, but also have a large number of visitors at any time but the organisers have failed to construct or provide sitting arrangements for the people so far and who pay Rs 20 per ticket for entry. |
