SC resurrects Bhagat Singh
Chandigarh, February 26 Last month, the apex court wrote to the Supreme Court of Pakistan, asking it to loan to India all the original documents related to the Lahore conspiracy trial involving Bhagat and his comrades. The deal looks good, with the Pakistani authorities responding positively so far. If it works out, the original case exhibits will become part of the special exhibition on the historic Bhagat Singh trial, the second in the series of pre-Independence judicial trials conceived in 2006 by the Supreme Court of India. The first in the series of exhibitions, displayed at the Supreme Court Museum in Delhi, was on the Alipore Bomb Conspiracy Case in which Khudiram Bose and Aurbindo Ghose were charged with the conspiracy to kill D.H. Kingsford. An infamous Presidency Magistrate in Calcutta, Kingsford attracted the ire of revolutionaries whom he would persecute at the slightest provocation. So on April 30, 1908, Bose and Prafulla Chaki set out to kill Kingsford, but ended up killing someone else. While Chaki committed suicide, Bose was charged with murder; Aurbindo Ghose was charged for being a mastermind behind the murder. The exhibition ran for six months, showing that people were interested in knowing about the glorious past. “The very objective behind showcasing these historic trials is to revive the memory of martyrs and inspire people,” said Noorul Hoda, curator of the SC Museum, who was in Chandigarh today to scout for materials related to Bhagat Singh. Accompanied by Rajmani, an archivist from the National Archives of India, Hoda spent hours at the Dwarka Das Library in Sector 15, The Tribune archives and the National Gallery of Portraits in Sector 17, putting together memoirs of Bhagat and other archival materials concerning the martyr. Curators of the exhibition have divided it into four parts - the genesis, the retaliation and police action, the trial and judgment; and the aftermath. From The Tribune they got the entire record of the turbulent period; from the Dwarka Das library they got personal belongings of Lala Lajpat Rai including his “achkan” and “pyjamas” and a list of books Bhagat Singh used to read. The list is based on the narrations of Raja Ram Shastri, the librarian of Dwarka Das Library from 1926 to 1931. “We are equally delighted to get from Chandigarh the “crown” which Balgangadhar Tilak presented to Bhagat Singh’s uncle Ajit Singh as a symbol of revolutionary bonding. The crown is on display at the National Gallery of Portraits,” Hoda said in an interview to The Tribune. The team will tomorrow proceed to Kharkarkalan (Nawanshahr) and Ferozepur to fill the gaps in the information already collected. The most precious section of the exhibition wil,l however, be the original exhibits and documents of the Lahore conspiracy case which Pakistan is expected to provide. The documents are currently in the archives of Borstal Jail, Lahore and the Lahore High Court where the actual trial took place. As for the exhibition, it will roll in the fourth week of March.

Human Trafficking
Chandigarh, February 26 Regulation of emigration and working of manpower recruiting agencies is in the domain of the Central government and the states lack legal sanction to enact a law on a subject which is not in its purview, says Anil Yadav, general secretary of the Overseas Manpower Recruiters’ Council. Punjab earns a minimum of Rs 300 crore a year through skilled and unskilled workers sent abroad in a legal manner by emigration and recruitment agents, claims Yadav. The state should not close this channel on the pretext of controlling unauthorised travel agents in the name of regulating emigration from the state. The council members were invited yesterday by the Punjab Home Department to file objections on the proposed Act. Principal secretary home B.C. Gupta, Inspector-General Suresh Arora, besides the legal remembrancer, were present at the meeting. The members also objected to clubbing of travel agents with emigration and manpower recruitment consultants. “We are not travel agents and have nothing to do with ‘kabootarbazi’. We are already approved and registered with the Union government under the Emigration Act, 1983,” they held. “The state government under the new legislation was trying to put pressure on us and insisting that we should also be registered here after making a security deposit of Rs 10 lakh each. When we have the authorisation of the Central government, we see no reason for registration with the state and that too by making a hefty security deposit,” maintain the emigration and manpower recruitment consultants. The consultants feel the state government was unnecessarily classifying or identifying them with the travel agents. The council maintained it had no objection if emigration and manpower recruitment agents were identified separately in the new Act. Enacting of laws alone cannot solve the problem. According to estimates, business of trafficking in human beings in Punjab was roughly about Rs 100 crore a year. Unless existing laws are enforced, illegal trafficking in humans cannot be checked, asserts Yadav. Chairman of the council Narinder Kumar Sharma says the new law by the state will provide the police additional weapon to harass legal and authorised emigration and manpower agents. The council members also said that even the police was not aware of the provisions of the Emigration Act, 1983, and always equated them with unauthorised travel agents. Vesting the police with penalty clauses in the proposed Act was also resented by the emigration and manpower recruitment agents.

PSEB will have to spend Rs 5,200 cr on power
Ropar, February 26 As per the report, the total demand of power in the state has been calculated at 40,239 million units for the current financial year. It includes transmission and distribution losses of about 25 per cent, metered sale of 20,085 million units and 9,537 million units for agriculture purposes. Against the demand of 40,239 million units the state produces 23,389 million units. This includes net thermal production of 14,212 million units and 9,177 million units from hydel sources, including state’s share in the BBMB. The gap that comes to about 33 per cent (16,850 million units) will be met through purchase from other sources. Sources said the Rs 5,200 purchase bill of the PSEB might increase as it had been estimated at an average cost of Rs 3.10 per unit that the organisation attained last year due to its advance agreement with power providers. Last year, however, board’s member, finance, had objected to high power purchase bill of the organisation. Owing to this, the PSEB cannot enter purchase agreements in advance. The result is that now it is being forced to purchase power at rates ranging between Rs 9-Rs 10 per unit. It is presently over drawing power from the grid at higher frequencies that invokes a penal cost of about Rs 10 per unit. Such-high cost purchases might increase the average price of power and the purchase bill of the board. The PSEB officials are hoping that as per the recent order of the PSERC the state government will allow them to charge tariff rates from March 1.

1st Anniversary of SAD-BJP Government
Chandigarh, February 26 Leader of the opposition and the Punjab Pradesh Congress president Rajinder Kaur Bhattal today said on March 1, Congress MLAs, MPs and other senior leaders would expose the “misdeeds, misrule and malfunctioning of the SAD-BJP government during the past one year”. In a statement released by Congress spokesman Rajpal Singh, Bhattal said the party would hold protest marches and meetings in all districts in the state on March 1, the day the SAD-BJP combine completes its “one year of misrule”. Reacting to the SAD-BJP rally held in Delhi today, Bhattal said the rally was an exhibition of misuse of government machinery and SGPC funds. All that was against public interest and wastage of time, energy and resources. She said the SAD-BJP combine was more concerned about the SGPC issue in Haryana than in raising worthwhile issues. She said the SAD-BJP leaders raised the farmers’ issue when they got information that the Centre was ready with a package for farmers. She said Congress leaders from Punjab were able to focus on important issues of farmers and bring them to the notice of the Prime Minister and the Congress president Sonia Gandhi yesterday. Meanwhile, other senior Congress leaders said Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal, BJP chief Rajnath Singh, SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal and BJP Punjab president Rajinder Bhandari should answer one question: Who set Punjab on the path of industrial and economic downfall? They alleged it was the BJP government led by Atal Bihari Vajpayee that in 2003 gave the concessions to states like Himachal Pradesh to set up industries that led to the flight of industry from Punjab in a big way thus laying the foundation for Punjab’s destruction on the industrial and economic front. Congress leaders said the damage caused to Punjab by the Vajpayee government of which the SAD was a coalition partner in 2003 would never be compensated. Because of the flight of industry from Punjab, the state was now facing problems in meeting even its basic fiscal needs. They said the SAD leadership should explain to the people of the state why it observed silence when the Vajpayee government played with the future of Punjab by giving a big industrial package to hill states in its neighbourhood. They said they would raise this question again and again to confront the SAD-BJP combine with Punjab’s reality.

After message from Akal Takht Abohar, February 26 Nandgarh along with scores of followers had started the sit-in on Saturday evening, as the Rajasthan government had not allowed his cavalcade to enter Sadulshehar, which lies in Sriganganagar. The administration on Saturday evening had given permission to the anti-Dera protesters for taking out the Dushat Daman Sikh March subject to some conditions after apprehending their clash with the followers of the Dera Sacha Sauda in Sriganganagar. The representatives of the Khalsa Action Committee had reportedly agreed to abide by the modalities finalised during a marathon meeting with the district magistrate and SP on Saturday evening. The march was to be taken out on Sunday morning. But some of the leaders after meeting the Jathedar conveyed that there would be no march sans Jathedar. The Sikh leaders had approached the district authorities to allow Nandgarh to visit the Gurdwara Deep Singh but the latter put a condition that the Jathedar would enter without cavalcade. However, this offer was rejected. According to information, the Akal Takht Jathedars, after a meeting presided over by Joginder Singh Vedanti today, resolved to fax a message to Nandgarh to end the protest “in larger interests of the Sikh community”. The faxed message condemned the Rajasthan government in strongest terms for banning Jathedar Nandgarh’s entry and clarified that the Dushat Daman March was not against any Dera or sect, but was aimed at bringing awareness among the people against social evils like drug addiction and female foeticide. Meanwhile, hundreds of heavy vehicles, which had been stranded on both sides of the inter-state border since Saturday evening, today started moving to their respective destinations. Some of these were carrying perishable goods. The authorities had earlier made alternate arrangements to ensure movement of buses. Some of the police officers from Punjab had yesterday met the Jathedar and requested him to lift the sit-in but in vain. It was learnt that the state government then approached the “highest level” to pursue Nandgarh to end the sit-in, sources said.

Damdama Sahib Jathedar reluctantly calls off dharna
Amritsar, February 26 The Jathedar, Nandgarh, had to call off the indefinite dharna on the Rajasthan border though he had told SGPC chief Avtar Singh, “Come what may I will lead the Khalsa March in Rajasthan as announced after the ardas (prayer)”. The SGPC chief urged the Jathedar, Nandgarh, on telephone yesterday to call off the dharna. The Jathedar, Nandgarh, told The Tribune on the telephone that he was in a fix since he could not comment on the appeal made by Sikh high priests, including Giani Joginder Singh Vedanti, to call off the “principled dharna” against the administration of Rajasthan which had played a “dubious role”. He admitted he was the first Jathedar who sat on dharna in support of the just demands of the Sikhs to take out Khalsa March in Rajasthan as part of Dharam Parchar. However, he said he was bound to accept the appeal made from Akal Takht, though it had come as “bolt from the blue”. However, the Jathedar Nandgarh had tough time persuading his followers who were not ready to lift the dharna. He alleged that the Rajasthan government did not allow him to take out the Khalsa March under pressure from the Dera Sacha Sauda chief. Followers of the Jathedar, Nandgarh, were surprised over the wording of the appeal of Akal Takht which read: “Call off the protest dharna in the larger interest of the Sikh Panth”. They were of the view that instead of issuing an appeal to the Jathedar, who was sitting on a dharna, Jathedar Vedanti and other Sikh high priests should have personally gone to the site of the dharna and forced government of Rajasthan to take out the religious procession. The Jathedar,Nandgarh, himself had made appeals to Jathedar Vedanti and other Sikh high priests to join him and protest against the decision of the Rajasthan government which had invoked Section 144, Cr PC, to disallow the Khalsa March. It is a pity he (Jathedar, Nandgarh) stood isolated in the given circumstances. He, however, said he had no choice but to lift the dharna following an appeal by the Sikh high priests. He said saner elements told himb that he being a Jathedar himself must respond to the appeal made by the five Sikh high priests, otherwise it would send a wrong signal across the Sikh masses. However, he said the appeal had made his position awkward but he was bound to accept it . Despite appeals made by Jathedar, Nandgarh, hardly any senior leader from the ruling Akali Dal except Bhola Singh Gillpatti, district Youth Akali Dal who sat with Jatherdar Nandgarh. Gillpatti equated Jathedar, Nandgarh, with Akali Phoola Singh who continued to sit on dharna for three nights and three days without any tent. Women and children from the Malwa region also sat with Jathedar, Nandgarh . A senior leader while addressing the gathering at the dharna site alleged the appeal to call off dharna was made at the behest of Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal. Coming heavily on the state of Rajasthan, Jathedar, Nandgarh, said it was most unfortunate that he was not allowed to reach gurdwara in Ganganagar despite assurance that the Khalsa March would be peaceful.

Badal directed the state finance department to release this amount to the board for speedy implementation of the project. The Chief Minister also conceded to the demand of the board for direct transfer of the cess of Rs 37 crore levied and collected by the state excise and taxation department in a separate head of the Education Development Fund. Members of the corporate sector and companies impressed upon Badal to allow them to run short-term vocational courses on the premises of Adarsh schools. The board also decided to allow groups, companies and individuals having a net worth of Rs 50 crore instead of Rs 100 crore to be eligible for opening an Adarsh school.

Rail Budget
Gurdaspur, February 26 Residents of Pathankot and Batala, however, have expressed their unhappiness over this. People of the area said the train would not serve any purpose for those travelling to Delhi as the passengers have to first go to Amritsar. While the economic growth of the area will get a boost with the superfast train, commuters to Amritsar from Pathankot, Gurdaspur, Batala and surrounding areas would benefit the most. The train would also be of great convenience for the residents of bordering areas of Himachal Pradesh who, at present, have to change buses to reach Amritsar. The trader community of Pathankot has lauded union railway minister Lalu Prasad for extending the superfast train from Amritsar to Pathankot. While the announcement of merging the coolies as gang-men has brought relief to the licence holders, it has failed to make the elderly coolies happy. A former MLA of Pathankot, Ashok Sharma, termed the decision of introducing the superfast train a wise one. Raman Bhalla, former Congress minister, said the people of Pathankot, Gurdsapur, Batala and surrounding areas of Jammu and Himachal Pradesh also would have been the beneficiaries had a direct train from Pathankot to Delhi been
introduced.

Corridor ext denial disappoints Amritsar
industry
Amritsar, February 26 Various industrial and trading associations told The Tribune that they had sent many representations to the railway ministry to extend its ambitious project to give a boost to the local sagging industry which was facing near extinction. They said the project would have triggered massive industrialisation in this beleaguered border township which had suffered due to its locational disadvantage. Meanwhile, BJP MP Navjot Singh Sidhu on phone from New Delhi said he was disappointed by the budget which had failed to focus on the miserable industrial scenario in Punjab and failed to extend the railway corridor to the Attari border. Describing the city as the gateway to Pakistan, Afghanistan and other central Asian countries, he said the stepmotherly treatment would deprive the holy city of its share in the economic boom in view of its strategic location. Sidhu said he had sought an appointment with Lalu Prasad to once again plead the case of the city. The CII Amritsar chairman Gunbir Singh said the industry was disappointed and anguished at the total neglect of this area by the railway minister. He urged the Members of Parliament from Punjab to forcefully take up the matter with Lalu Prasad for the extension of the corridor.

Water corpn staff go on mass leave
Chandigarh, February 26 Members of five organisations, under the aegis of the Mulazim Action Committee, staged a protest in front of the head office of the corporation in Sector 26 here. Among the protesters were operational staff, revenue staff, and clerical workers, engineering drawing cadres, drivers and class IV employees. The representatives of the protesting employees claimed that the work at the head office remained suspended throughout the day with even the drivers of the senior officials participating in the protest. The employees gave an ultimatum of 15 days to the corporation that in case it failed to meet their long-pending demands, they would be forced to go on an indefinite strike. They would not give any memorandum to the authorities as they had discussed the demands with the authorities. The agitating leaders of the employees while lambasting secretary (irrigation) Suresh Kumar, stated that it was his dictatorial attitude which proved a roadblock in giving job to kin of 80 employees on compassionate grounds even as there was no legal hassles in it. They said the state government had already excluded the corporation from the list of corporations to be brought under disinvestment. The corporation has bagged several new projects, making it financially sound and enabling it to tackle the problem of surplus staff, claimed the leaders. They held that they had a meeting with irrigation minister of Punjab Janmeja Singh Johal on October 10 where the secretary (irrigation) was also present. The minister had promised them to give jobs on compassionate grounds. The issue has been pending since 2002. The secretary has not been giving permission to the managing director to give jobs to the kin of the employees.

Motive significant in a case of circumstantial
Chandigarh, February 26 The ruling by a Division Bench of the High Court, comprising Justice Adarsh Kumar Goel and Justice S.D. Anand, comes on an appeal filed in a murder case by one Kulwant Rai alias Nona. In his appeal against the State of Punjab challenging the trial court’s orders sentencing him to life imprisonment, the appellant had earlier claimed circumstances against him were not clearly proved. Arguing before the court, his counsel had added that proving the same was essential as the case against the appellant depended on circumstantial evidence, motive and certain other factors. As such, there were clear grounds to acquit the accused of the charge framed against him. Allowing the appeal, the Bench observed: “In a case based on circumstantial evidence, motive alleged may become significant. The motive alleged in the present case is clearly doubtful. Thus, the circumstances relied upon by the prosecution cannot be held to be fully established and are not conclusive of the guilt of the appellant”. In their detailed order, the Judges added the evidence of motive, and the victim being last seen in the company of the accused being inconclusive; the appellant was entitled to be granted the benefit of doubt in the case. The Judges concluded by observing: “Accordingly, we allow this appeal and set aside the conviction and the sentence of the appellant and acquit him”. The prosecution had alleged that on October 16, 1987, accused Kulwant Rai took away the alleged victim, Jagroop Singh, along with him. After Jagroop Singh did not return home till late evening, his son and father started searching for him. Later, they found Jagroop Singh’s body.
