Ambala-Rajpura Road Our Correspondent
Lalru, November 17 There are three types of barriers here - entry tax barrier, toll plaza tax and road tax - that have been creating traffic problem here. Hundreds of trucks were seen standing on 3 to 4 km area on the main GT road. Long lines of trucks are always seen standing on the main road when such accidents take place. After visiting the site it was found that many truckers were waiting for the past three days because they could not deposit their entry tax. The entry tax was being collected from Rs 40,000 to one lakh per truck according to the quality of loaded material. Truck driver Avtar Singh whose truck was bound from Nagpur to Jalandhar said that he was waiting here for the past three days because persons of the concerned company had not reached here to deposit the entry tax. He further alleged that nearly eight trucks loaded with electricity towers that came with his truck from the same place in Nagpur were not stopped and crossed without paying the entry tax, so the owners of concerned companies were not believing regarding the depositing of entry tax for his truck. The other two truck drivers who had come here from Jamshedpur and were to head towards Ludhiana with loaded trucks were also waiting for depositing of the entry tax due to non availability of tax money from concerned companies. Some transporters said that assembling of various tax barriers at one point had caused a serious traffic problem on this road. Excise and taxation officials informed that nearly 2,500 trucks are registered here for one side for import entries and Rs 22 crore income is being received monthly by the concerned department. Investigation of Excise And Taxation Department Director KVS Sidhu who was present on the spot admitted about the traffic problem here and said that efforts were being made to resolve this. He added that there were some problems that could not be disclosed were being identified for the solution of the problem.

Mishap stalls traffic on Banur-Rajpura Road
Banur/Rajpura, November 17 A car and speeding bus, which were on their way to Rajpura collided with each other on the road at around 11 am due to which traffic on the road was blocked. As per the stranded commuters, a car, in which some wedding guests were going towards Rajpura from Chandigarh, was hit from the rear side by a PRTC bus. The bus dragged the car to some distance but nobody was seriously injured in the accident. “Since there is no divider on this busy stretch, commuters tried to overtake each other and chaos was witnessed immediately after the accident. There was no traffic police present even up to 10 km and some policemen from nearby police station reached after two hours”, said Jaswinder Singh, a resident of Rajpura. He said that even the two wheelers got sandwiched between the heavy vehicles and failed to move an inch. Thousands of commuters ply over the road, which mainly connects Chandigarh with Patiala and other major towns of nearby Haryana. Earlier also, small incidents have led to queues up to more than 20 km but nothing has been done in this regard. The commuters demanded that the traffic policemen should be deployed on the stretch so that traffic could be resumed within few minutes after such accidents.

District Courts
Ropar, November 17 Interestingly, if the employees of contractors are to be believed, the entire road has been given on contract for parking. “There are no temporary ropes to demarcate areas of road and the pavements, which double up as parking lots,” pointed out Bhupinder Singh, a litigant, on visit to the district courts. Earlier, the area, where approach road to IIT has come up, was being used as a parking lot. After the work on laying of the road started, visitors and litigants at the courts do not have any option but to park vehicles on the roadside. Taking advantage of this situation, some persons have started charging Rs 10 as parking fees. When confronted, one of the employees of a contractor claimed, “We have got special permission from the Deputy Commissioner to charge for parking of vehicles here. If you don’t want to park here, it is your choice,” he added. The parking space inside the court premises is so limited that it cannot accommodate vehicles of all the judges and advocates. Last year, the lawyers had a tiff with the district administration over the parking woes. Amicably, it was decided that the administrative complex and judicial complex would have separate entries and traffic of one side would not be allowed to go on to the other side. When contacted, GA to DC Pushpinder Singh Kailey agreed that the visitors were being wrongly asked for parking fees. He said that the administration was developing a rest-house area for parking purposes.
