Rural Job
Scheme Kanchan Vasdev Tribune News Service
Maangat (Ludhiana), September 12 Villagers say while the scheme is aimed at providing employment to rural youths, the panchayat used JCB machines to dig the earth. Moreover, the new pond is a bone of contention as the original pond, for which the grant was received, has been left untouched. Instead, panchayat land recorded as “baithak mavashiyan” in revenue records was dug for the purpose. The villagers claim that once filled with water, the pond would make the road difficult to approach as it was on its bank. It may cave in, they feared. Also, crop in the fields nearby would be damaged due to waterlogging. They say the pond was dug more than 15-ft deep against norms as a pond should not be more than 7-ft deep to prevent accidents. As many as 1,000 trailers of dug earth were ferried to various places. Every trailer, says Dr JS Gill, a heart specialist and native of the village, cost Rs 1,000. “One can imagine how much money has been made by the panchayat. Even though a panchayat member, Kulwant Singh, protested against the project, the panchayat still went ahead with it,” he claims, adding that he had complained to the District Development and Panchayat Officer, Mahinder Singh Grewal, who had directed the panchayat not to do this. But it did not listen to any one. Surjeet Kaur, a resident of the village, says that her crops were damaged after the water from the pond flooded her fields. The DDPO said he would look into the matter. He would seek a report tomorrow and find out why the original pond was not desilted, he said. |

Parents of challenged children meet
Ludhiana, September 12 The speeches delivered by half a dozen children were met with loud applauses. Representatives of Parivaar, the National Federation of Parents for Persons with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, Ashirwad, North India Cerebral Palsy Association, National Institute for Mentally Handicapped and the National Trust emphasised on the “social acceptance, inclusive education, promotion of self advocacy among persons with disorders and dedication of the respective families toward the disabled”. JP Gadkari, president of Parivar, referring to the word “viklang” used in government institutions while assessing applications against 3 per cent reservation for the handicapped, said it was time for the governments to recognise the achievements of these children/people with special needs. “In order to inculcate self advocacy among these individuals, we have formed the Self Advocate Society of India and every state would have a separate chapter,” he said. Dr Neelam Sodhi, director of Ashirwad, introduced Gagandeep (16), Jaspreet (22), Jaswinder Singh Sodhi (17), Manpreet (16) and Tushar (12) who through their determination and painstaking efforts managed to come into mainstream scholastic courses. Jaswinder Singh was another fine example of extraordinary intelligence who, with the support of his doctor parents, managed to overcome his disorders and pursued studies in mainstream schools. “I scored 82 per cent in mathematics in Class X and am pursuing non-medical now, which has been possible with the support of my parents,” he said. Not deterred by her wheelchair, Jaspreet, a second-year college student, recited a poem, “Ladli hoti hein betiyan, ma-baap ki pyari hoti hein betiyan”. Amid moments of pride, RN Sehgal (Tushar’s grandfather) accepted the honour conferred on his grandson, saying “I accept this award on Tushar’s behalf who was admitted to Jesus Sacred Heart Convent following a recitation during the CBSE principals’ meet two years ago.” Scepticism on the part of principals to absorb children with disabilities to maintain good results is a “retardation” for the ongoing movement in favour of acceptance of such persons in the mainstream social system, the speakers observed. The meet will conclude tomorrow. |

Bhootna wanted to kill senior
cop
Ludhiana, September 12 He told a senior PPS officer that he was thinking of ending his life and was looking for an opportunity to kill an officer. In a surprising disclosure to the police, Bhootna said: “I was luring the cops to send some senior police officer so I could shoot him. I knew I would be killed, but I would have become famous if I had killed an officer.” He told the cops that a DSP came in front of him, but he could not position himself to kill him. “I asked him to get down and made an excuse that I could not listen to what he was saying. I was thinking if he bent down I would shoot the officer,” he said. But this did not happen.

Punjab can produce
5 lakh mt biogenic silica
Ludhiana, September 12 The rice husk is a good raw material for harnessing energy and biogenic silica. It has the potential to satisfy the hunger of the semiconductor and several other industries for raw materials. A Punjab Agricultural University scientist, Dr VR Parshad, who is a director, electron microscopy and nanoscience laboratory, has studied the potential of rice husk and found it to be a good source of silicon. Silicon is used for manufacturing silicon chips by multi-billion dollar computer industry, cell phones and other semiconductor industries and for producing silicon films and crystals for use in photovoltaic cells for harnessing solar energy. Punjab produces 14.5 million metric tonnes (MT) of paddy annually, milling of which generates 11-12 million MT of rice and about 2.3 million MT of rice husk annually. From this large amount of rice husk, 0.5 million tonnes (5 lakh tonne) silica can be extracted. Talking to The Tribune, Dr Prashad said, “Milling of one tonne of paddy generates about 650-700 kg of white rice and about 220 kg of rice husk, from which 150 kWh of electricity can be produced leaving 40 kg of rice husk ash, which contains 80-90 per cent biogenic silica.” In its present form, rice husk ash or silica can be used in steel industry as tundish powder because of its excellent insulating properties and as filler material in rubber, cement, paper, pulp, pesticide, detergent, soap, glass and ceramic industries. Silica and its composites with other inorganic elements and organic molecules have tremendous multi-purpose industrial, agricultural and medical applications. Aerogel, produced using nanosilica, is the lightest solid material with super insulation quality and high compressible strength. It has applications in aerospace, refrigeration and automobile industries. The silica can also help in improving the productivity of rice and other crops, thus it has applications in agriculture itself which is its important source. Medical applications of nanosilica are of great interest particularly in developing medical devices, tissue engineering and cancer cure, Dr Prashad added. |

Farmer clubbed to death
Mandi Ahmedgarh, September 12 Though the kin of the deceased suspect it to be handiwork of a gang of thieves, circumstantial evidence suggests the land dispute or a few women might have murdered him. Gian Singh, a farmer of Khera village, was found murdered near a tube well room at his fields on the outskirts of the village. Though exact cause of death will be ascertained once the report of the postmortem conducted at Dehlon civil hospital is revealed. Physical examination of the body suggests that the man died due to the head injury caused by some heavy object. Gian Singh had left his house on Wednesday evening to stay at a room attached with the tube well installed at his fields. Members of his family got worried when he did not return home till noon after which they started searching for him. Bruises on the limbs of the deceased suggest that he had scuffled with the assailants before being hit on the head. Fact that his trouser was found lying near his body, puts off family’s hypothesis that he was killed by some gang of thieves who had come to steal electric motor or copper wire from the tube well. |
