MLA’s ‘PA’, 7 cops among 9 booked
‘Not my PA’ Congress MLA Parsani Devi said the person (Suresh) booked by the police was not her personal assistant. She said he was a party worker and in that capacity he used to travel with her. She, however, defended Suresh by stating he had not hatched a conspiracy to settle a personal score with the
JE. She said Suresh was a poor man who owned a small depot and was not in a position to prevail upon the police. She said it was a politically-motivated conspiracy to defame her.
Panipat, November 8 About a month ago, a team of officials of the Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam detected power theft in about 50 labour quarters on the Kuthani road that were owned by Naresh Verma, brother of Suresh Verma, who reportedly worked as personal assistant (PA) with Congress legislator from the Naultha constituency Parsani Devi. The officials registered a case and imposed a penalty of Rs 5 lakh on Naresh Verma, in whose name the meter stood. The erring owner deposited the fine within 48 hours of the raid. According to the police, in order to settle a score with Janeshwar, one of the junior engineers who had raided the labour quarters, Suresh Verma and Naresh Verma hatched a conspiracy to falsely implicate the JE’s son in a case of possessing contraband. They allegedly sent a gunny bag full of wheat, in which about 250 gm of charas had been kept, to a wheat flour mill owned by Janeshwar’s son Krishan. A person was hired to deliver the bag of wheat to Krishan’s flour mill. However, when the person reached the mill, Krishan had already pulled down the shutters and left. The person then left the wheat bag that contained charas at the neighbouring shop of Pawan, a barber. Exactly then, a team of policemen from the Sector 29 anti-theft unit of the traffic police reached there and rounded up Pawan and sent for Krishan. They allegedly took the two persons to a local canal and gave them a through thrashing, while keeping them in illegal confinement. As Krishan’s father got to know about the incident, he immediately approached the local DSP who enquired from the local police about anybody having been arrested in a case related to possession of contraband. As the policemen, who had abducted the two persons, got to know about this development, they immediately let off the two persons. Janeshwar then got a medical examination of his son and Pawan done at the local Civil Hospital that established that the two had been beaten up. Following this, he approached the district police chief seeking appropriate action, but no action was initiated. The matter was then brought to the notice of the senior authorities of the police department who ordered an inquiry that was conducted by the Karnal DSP. In his inquiry report, the DSP held that a conspiracy had been hatched to falsely implicate Krishan to settle a personal score. The policemen who were booked are Devinder, Suresh, Ramphal, Sunil, Manoj, Raj Kumar and Jaipal. They were placed under suspension after the registration of the case.

Marathi families to meet Prez
Karnal, November 8 Panic gripped these families after three persons barged into the house of Vijay Suryavansi and threatened his wife Kalpana, who was alone at home, to leave Karnal along with her family or “be prepared to die”. The family of Suryavansi was so scared that they sent their children - Akash, Rinki and Sagar - to school after two days, that too after the local administration fully assured them about their safety. Marathi families have already contacted the PA of union power minister Sushil Kumar Shinde and their delegation will meet the President anytime after November 14, said Vijay Suryavansi, who claimed that he knew the President since the days she was active in Congress politics in Jalgaon. He advised Raj Thackeray to desist from making provocative statements which could trigger a chain reaction in other states and harm the interests of Maharashtrians settled outside the state. India was one country and any citizen could settle at any place for earning a livelihood and Thackeray should foresee that his actions were detrimental to the larger interests of the country and also Maharashtra. Kalpana, who is also the state secretary of the women wing of the Haryana Janhit Congress, said the intruders were speaking in Haryanvi and she could identify them as they had not covered their faces with masks. |
