Trader prevents unloading
of coal for 3rd day
Ludhiana, January 18 A group of 40-50 musclemen, led by R.S. Gandhi, the trader concerned, stormed the dry port in Gypsy vehicles bearing temporary numbers and allegedly beat up a transporter, Gurinder Singh Kairon, and threatened the labourers against unloading the coal. Such threats have kept the labourers away for the third day now. The group also tried to illegally take the possession of wagons, prompting the railways and the police to send heavy force there. Sources said the focal point police had detained five musclemen in this regard. The railways has also filed a complaint with the police and the railway protection force, apart from the Coal Merchants Association. As a fallout of the threats, the unloading of coal, which is transported to most of North India from here, remained suspended for the third consecutive day today, causing problems to neighbhouring states and a loss of lakhs of rupees to traders who pay wharfage at Rs 360 per wagon. With seven racks, consisting of 40 wagons each, waiting to be unloaded, the local coal merchants would have to pay Rs 24 lakh to the railways. A meeting was held by the police between the Coal Merchant Association and R.S. Gandhi to find an amicable solution. Later in the afternoon, the deputy commissioner, Sumer Singh Gurjjar, held a meeting with railway officials and asked them to file a written complaint. Only last month, the Gandhi group had left the city after its effort to gain entry into the coal trade failed with both groups making serious allegations against each other. Rakesh Kumar, president of the coal association, said they were suffering huge losses due to the illegal methods adopted by R.S. Gandhi. The Coal Merchants Association and coal traders have lodged the complaint alleging that the accused were demanding money, which they termed as ‘Goonda Tax’, from coal traders. The accused have been booked under Sections 145 and 146 of the Railway Protection Act.

The department, it being the last quarter of the financial year, is likely to hold more surveys in days to come. "This is being done through various modes, including door-to-door surveys where our officials visit the premises of an assessee and ask for a few details. It is only in case the department finds that a concealment is likely that the person concerned is asked to come forward on his own. Surveys are imperative to keep a check on tax evasion, which is massive," an official said.

Woman swindler arrested
Mandi Ahmedgarh, January 18 She was booked under Sections 7, 3 and 2 of the Prevention of Corruption Act and Section 420 of the IPC on the statement of Balwinder Singh, a revenue official at the sub-registrar’s office at Machhiwara, yesterday. She had allegedly taken Rs 6,000 from him and had demanded Rs 25,000 for “entertaining” certain high-ranking officers. Balwinder Singh had earlier been suspended for manipulating records of land worth Rs 7 crore. Harpreet Kaur was booked and arrested for allegedly extorting money from Balwinder Singh. She had sought the money on the pretext of getting action against him withdrawn. The perusal of records at the police station revealed that she had called on Balwinder Singh on Wednesday and assured him that no action would be taken against him. “As Harpreet had told me that she had met the authorities at the commissioner’s office in Patiala regarding the case, I showed her records pertaining to the dispute. After assuring me that I will not be involved in the case, she took me to market and made me pay for the things she bought,” Balwinder Singh told the police, alleging that she had taken
Rs 6,000 from him on that day. She told him that she would meet the deputy commissioner, Ludhiana, on Thursday. Balwinder, however, became suspicious when she came to his house yesterday and demanded Rs 25,000 to get the matter hushed up. “Balwinder informed us about the incident and asked her to wait in his office till he returned with the money. In the meantime, we arrested her,” SHO Randhir Singh said, adding that the money had been recovered from her. Investigations revealed that Harpreet Kaur admitted to having got a large number of “tedious” cases settled by persuading the authorities concerned in the revenue department. The police is trying to establish her links on the basis of the calls made by her from her mobile phone.

Owner of Waryam Steels summoned
Ludhiana, January 18 Excise teams visited the official and residential premises of Atul Gupta, owner of Waryam Steels, and V.K.

Gupta has been summoned before the department for further investigations on Monday. The case of Waryam Steels has been in the limelight for over a month, particularly after the central excise commission, in a rare move, put Gupta under arrest. Officials said trouble began owing to the "non-cooperative attitude" of Gupta, who got himself admitted to hospital after raids were conducted on his companies.

Root out female
foeticide: Chawla
Ludhiana, January 18 She was addressing a seminar on “female foeticide and empowerment of women”, organised by Shaheed Memorial Society to mark “Womens Day” at Ramgarhia Girls College here. Sounding a note of caution over the prevailing trend of killing unborn girls, she said if left unchecked, this imbalance in the sex ratio in the state would lead to serious consequences in times to come. Chawla said it was unfortunate that the latest machines and equipment, made available to us by the scientists to detect and treat problems during pregnancies, were being misused for pre-natal sex determination and termination of pregnancies in case of a female fetus. “It is all more shameful that Punjab, known as one of the leading states for developmental activities, is sliding down in social and moral values.” The minister observed that our great saints, gurus and holy books had put the women on a very high pedestal and given them a place of pride. But in the modern times, girls were not only being ill-treated and denied their due place in society; people were going to the extent of snatching their right to be born. She said it was painful that it was the women who were playing a proactive role in the female foeticide. “It is not the mothers, doctors or midwives who are responsible for the stigma of female foeticide in our society, but it is the perverted mentality. One we change of mind set and sees the brighter side of the girls achieving greater heights in all walks of life, only then we shall be able to rid the society of this menace.” The health minister felicitated 12 prominent women, who had excelled in their respective fields. These included Rajinder Kaur, deputy director, Information and Public Relations Department, Uma Sharma, district public relations officer, Mohali, Dr Inderjit Kaur, president, Pingalwara Society, Pritpal Kaur, secretary, Punjab School Education Board, Hirdaypal Kaur, director, Youth Services, Punjab, Rupinder Rimpy, Punjabi singer, Dr Neeru Kakkar, Mullanpur, Renuka Nayyar, deputy news editor, Dainik Tribune, Mohinder Kaur, lecturer, Government College for Women, Principal R.K. Aulakh, Poonam Singh and Suraksha Kalra, principal, Deaf and Dumb School, Ludhiana. Later, Chawla convened a meeting of senior women medical officers from the state and interact with them on implementation of health policies.

MC in spot over waiver
Ludhiana, January 18 A communication in this regard was received by the local body recently. The matter cropped up during the municipal corporation’s core committee meeting today. The members, however, could not reach at any consensus and the issue was kept pending. The letter states that crores of rupees under the Jawahar Lal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission could only be released if the corporation did not give any sops to residents. The situation arising out of this communication has put the corporation in a fix. The water supply and sewerage charged were waived off for those living in houses measuring 125 sq yards in July 2006 during the Congress regime. The waiving off of the water and sewage charges has been quite an issue since long. The matter was debated by the Opposition at that time more than the ruling party. Succumbing to pressure, the government had announced that these families would not be levied any such charges. Now, with the BJP-SAD combine running the local civic body, it seems quite perturbed over the development. It is failing to understand what to do as the development would affect the urban population that mostly comprises BJP’s vote bank. This was the only reason the today’s meeting could not decide on the issue. ‘‘We cannot allow the corporation to lose funds under the JNNURM. And at the same time we do not want that the residents have to pay these charges. We are trying to find some middle path if there is one,” said a BJP leader. The meeting was chaired by Mayor Hakam Singh Gyaspura. Senior deputy mayor Parvin Bansal, deputy mayor Sunita Rani, Congress councillor Bharat Bhushan Ashu, SAD councillor, Harbhajan Singh Dang, Commissioner Vikas Partap and joint commissioner Ashok Bajaj were present on the occasion.

Hailstorm lashes city
Ludhiana, January 18 The hailstorm was experienced at 3.45 a.m. The PAU scientists said if the hailstorm lashes the region during February or March, only then it is detrimental for wheat crops as the grains forming in the ears of crop fall due to hail hitting. Dr K.K. Gill, agrometerology department, PAU, said the hailstorm was caused due to low maximum temperature that was being recorded at 16 degrees
Celsius against a normal temperature of 19 degrees C. She said the minimum temperature that was more than normal during these days was actually bad for wheat crop. Due to cloudy weather conditions it was being recorded at 10 degrees though it should be 5 degrees during this part of the year. The hailstorm would in fact benefit the crops as it helped in clearing the sky of clouds. It would also reduce the minimum temperature that was much needed for good yield.

At The Crossroads
In midwinter this season while reading the novel “The Snows of Kilimanjaro” by Ernest Hemingway, I am reminded of the snows of Shimla. About 50 years ago, Shimla used to have frequent snowfalls during the months of December, January and February. Sometimes it could be quite heavy, covering the roads with a thick woolly carpet. It was a treat to walk on the freshly-laid snow, pushing down the fluffy layer with the feeling of a path-finder. Later, the pressed down snow turned into a passage, much traveled upon.
I am reminded of my visit to Kufri, in the company of three friends, in February 1957. That was the winter sports week, when skiing on the slopes of snow-covered hills was in the full swing. Walking down all distance from Sanjauli to Kufri was a hilarious experience. Then the steep rise from Dhalli to Kufri made us breathless but the sight was breathtaking. At the top, men, women and children were in a festive mood, throwing balls of snow at each other, rolling down the hilly slopes in gay abandon and then refusing to get up too soon. Someone among my friends had a pleasant surprise in store for us. He produced a bottle of Rum from a pocket of his overcoat with the sleight of his hand, so as to say. From the other pocket, he fished out a plastic glass. Then the problem that confronted us was to procure water from somewhere. All around there was snow and snow but not a drop of water to drink. Without much ado the method of converting a handful of snow into water by putting it in the glass was devised. To our surprise we later discovered that others had already invented that method, much ahead of us. It was not merely the stuff that lifted up our spirits, but the sea of humanity surging all around also created the heart-warming illusion of shipwrecked persons stranded on an island. That was “the instant made eternity.” Now the season has changed in Shimla and the roundabout hills. There is scanty snowfall in Kufri and the trees at the Jakhu hill are seldom seen under a thick blanket of snow. Icy winds may blow now and then but the snow flakes avoid the denuded stretches of slopes, marked with clusters of concrete structures. In the plains people rush indoors when it rains, but in Shimla people come out of their homes when it snows. The more snow, the merrier it is. But the younger generation is bereft of this luxury these days. At the best, the young persons can enjoy skating at the ice-skating rink. Earlier, ice-forming at the other side of the Rivoli Cinema was more or less a natural phenomenon. But the global warming has taken its toll at this site also. Blizzards and gales are also now the things of the past. I remember that fortnight, between February 14 and February 28 in 1961, when it snowed continually, mostly at night, accompanied by winds of high velocity. Trees were uprooted, causing damage to electric wires, and water froze in the water pipes. In the morning snow was melted in a cane, placed on the stove, for the purpose of brushing the teeth and washing the face. At night the red-hot coals in the fireplace provided both light and warmth. During the night the snow-laden wooden roof sometimes caused alarm when the sound of the cracking of a beam was heard in utter darkness. Mostly the mornings were sunny for a short while and in the sunlight icicles hanging down the eves provided the much-needed relief to the heart. Nature’s mysterious working was in tune with the joys and sorrows of life. On the road from Sanjauli to the Ridge, almost 10-foot of snow had accumulated during that period. People trudged on the narrow path that had been cleared from time to time with spades by the workers of the municipal committee. With the low clouds hanging over the head, it appeared as if one was passing through a tunnel of snow turned into ice. Still it can be said, in the words of William Wordsworth, that -
Bliss was it in that age to be alive, But to be young was very heaven! — N.S. Tasneem

Recover interest from sub-postmaster, not customer
Our Correspondent
Ludhiana, January 18 The customer had deposited Rs 12.25 lakh in the MIS, but the limit was only Rs 6 lakh. The lok adalat held that it was not the fault of the person depositing the money under the MIS. The officer concerned should have apprised the customer about it. The presiding officer of the lok adalat, C.D. Gupta and its members R.S. Khokar and Nand Lal, however, allowed the department to recover the amount paid in excess to the customer from the sub-postmaster who had allowed the customer to deposit the amount. Amrik Singh and his wife Kuldeep Kaur had deposited the amount with the sub-postmaster, Dhamot. They had submitted that sub-postmaster Jagdish Singh had told them that the amount would be deposited by opening various accounts for Rs 50,000 each and lower amounts. The sub-postmaster continued paying the interest amount on these deposits, but later stopped paying the interest saying that the amount of more than Rs 6 lakh could not be deposited. The petitioners were also told that the excess amount had to be withdrawn and the excess amount paid as interest would be deducted from that amount. After hearing the contentions of both parties, the court held that after June 2007, the post office would pay an interest applicable on the saving account in case of amount above Rs 6 lakh, and instructed that the postal department would not deduct the amount of interest already paid to account holders as they were not at fault.

Kidnapping Case Rajneesh Lakhanpal
Ludhiana, January 18 Additional Sessions Judge M.S.Virdi had granted anticipatory bail to Kakkar, Balbir Singh Dhillon, forest range officer, Amritsar, Hoshiarpur’s forest range officer, Kulraj Singh, Ludhiana’s block forest officer, Jarnail Singh, forest guards, Tirath Singh and Harbhj Rai, yesterday. The copy of orders was made available today. Referring to the former state BJP unit Yuva mocha’s president, Sukhminder Pal Singh, the judge held that since he belongs to the ruling party, the possibility of registration of a false case against the accused (forest department officials) could not be ruled out. Forest officials were booked on the charges of kidnapping and beating up an employee of Taj Resorts near Mullanpur. The complaint was filed by resort owner Atma Singh. Referring to role of Atma Singh, the judge held, “After considering the arguments advanced by the Additional Public Prosecutor and the counsel of accused, I find that Atma Singh and Varinder Singh had violated the Forest and Wildlife Protection Act, which was found by the employees of forest department while on patrolling for which an FIR was registered against them.” Even a criminal complaint filed by the forest department against them was pending in the court of Judicial Magistrate, Randhir Verma. So, I find it a fit case to grant the concession of anticipatory bail to all accused, the judge added.

Angina common in industrial hub, says PU study
Mandi Gobindgarh,
January 18 The study that was published in a journal on environmental research and public health states that those living in Mandi Gobindgarh were more prone to cardiovascular diseases as compared to those living in non-industrial towns. Door-to-door surveys and an ambient air quality data collected over a period of 10 months found similarity between air pollution and chronic respiratory
disease. The experts also discovered that the air pollution had a negative effect on the psychological health of the people as cases of depression and elevation were more in Mandi Gobindgarh then Morinda, a non-industrial town. The female population showed marginally higher symptoms than the male one. The average PM10 (particulate matter) levels in Morinda were recorded at 99.54µg/m3 and in Mandi Gobindgarh the same was recorded at 161.20µg/m3. As per the permitted levels the PM10 should not exceed 50µg/m3. The study also found that pollution levels increased with the onset of winters and declined with the onset of summer. According to the experts, 18 per cent of the population in Morinda was found to be suffering from some kind of cardiovascular disease as compared to Mandi Gobindgarh where it was 40 per cent. There is a similarity between increased cardiovascular diseases and the presence of pollutants in the air. They stated that there was a need of further study in this direction and the data thus collected could be of great global importance.
