Internal bickering deepens in HJC
Rohtak, June 14 They also decided to organise a state-level workers’ conference of the party on July 12 in Jind. The conference will not only ratify the ‘expulsion’ of Kuldeep Bishnoi from the HJC but conduct elections for the party president. Giving the information at a press conference here after the meeting, Krishan Murti Hooda said a nine-member-committee under the chairmanship of the interim president had been constituted to ponder over the possibility of an alliance with any political party for forthcoming assembly election due in February 2010. Besides him, Om Prakash Jain, Balwant Dalamwal, ID Kaushik, Anand Hooda, Taiyab Hussain and Ramraj Sharma will be other members of the committee, Krishan Murti added. “The workers meeting of the party will be organised at every district headquarters to give them invitation for the state-level conference and to mobilise them. They will also stand against the ‘unethical’ action of Kuldeep Bishnoi expelling senior leaders from the party without following ‘democratic norms’, he asserted, adding that Bishnoi was not serious towards the party as he was abroad at a time when there were talks of early elections to the state assembly. He maintained that new state officer-bearers, district presidents and chiefs of various cells of the party would also be appointed during the Jind conference. Subash Batra said Kuldeep Bishnoi should have resigned from the party owning moral responsibility for the party’s defeat but contrary to this he expelled those senior leaders ‘unconstitutionally’ who not only contested the recently concluded parliamentary elections on the party tickets but also toiled hard to muster people support during the election campaign. Answering a question he said former Chief Minister and MP Bhajan Lal would also be invited for the workers’ conference. Subhash Batra and Krishan Murti Hooda were expelled from the primary membership of the HJC by the party leadership on June 9 for anti-party activities. |

Suspended IFS official gets Manjunath award
Fatehabad, June 14 The officer was suspended by the government in August 2007 and later reinstated by a presidential order in January 2008, when the government failed to produce any documentary evidence in support of the suspension order. The park has since come up in Gillankhera and the matter, including the fact of ownership of land, is pending before the Supreme Court. Earlier, Chaturvedi had taken a stand against cutting off of trees from the Saraswati Wildlife Sanctuary to make way for heavy trucks for the construction of a canal during his posting in Kurukshetra district in 2006. Considering the sense of integrity exhibited by Chaturvedi in the face of strong pressures, the Manunath Shanmugam Trust selected Chaturvedi along with two others for the third Manjunath Shanmugham Integrity Award, instituted by IIM alumni in memory of IIM alumnus and Indian Oil Corporation officer Manjunath who was killed in UP on November 19, 2005, while trying to stop a fuel adulteration mafia. The awards were given yesterday at Bangalore. Interestingly, while the officer’s services have been recognised by others, the state government is still to cancel the chargesheet against him though he has long been reinstated and is at present posted at Jhajjar. |
Protest against College Management
Kaithal, June 14 The students resorted to agitation after they came to know through a news report that Kurukshetra University has disaffiliated the college following receipts that the college management had given admission to 200 students against a sanction of 100 in the BEd course during the current academic session. The students blocked the road by placing stones in the middle of the road. The traffic remained disrupted for a few hours. The naib tehsildar and the police asked the students to withdraw their protest promising that they would inform the higher authorities about their grievances. After persistent persuasion by authorities, the students withdrew the blockade. The students alleged that the management had kept them in dark and they would have to suffer a huge financial loss and their one precious year would be lost. They were demanding registration of a case against the office-bearers of the college management and refund of their admission fee other charges and compensation in lieu of loss suffered by them due to the acts of the management. Parents of some students also reached the college and criticised the management for its anti-student attitude and demanded action against the management. However, it could not be ascertained that whether the university had disaffiliated the college or not. The college authorities could not be contacted to know the actual position. The students had been agitating for the past many days after getting information that only 100 students would be allotted roll numbers for the coming examinations. |

Move to withdraw courses invites students’ ire
Chandigarh, June 14 In a press note issued here today, INSO Haryana unit president Vikas Rathee described the decision as reflective of the “anti-education and anti student attitude” of the Congress government in the state. He said the government’s decision to withdraw the most basic courses of BA and MA from various colleges did not carry any logic as lots of students preferred to go for these courses. Rathee said the government should have introduced new courses for the welfare of the student community but it was scraping the already existing courses. He said BA was the most basic and multi-faceted course and economical too for all section of the society, who could not afford expensive courses and the government had done away with such courses, which also made a student eligible for entering the highest service in our country, the IAS. He said the government’s decision to scrap both courses of BSc, medical and non-medical from various colleges showed that it had no concern for the poor students, who had no other option than to study science courses in government colleges as private colleges charged heavy fees for the same courses. He said when central universities like Delhi University were providing these courses then how could the state government behave in such an indifferent manner. |
