Undertrial burns cop’s turban
Mohali, November 21 The policeman on escort duty of undertrails was reportedly not allowing the girl to meet Amit. In a fate of rage, Amit asked the policeman, Balwinder Singh, to come close to his cell and pulled off his turban before setting it afire with a matchstick. The undertrail and the girl alleged that policemen have been accepting bribe
to extend favours like allowing personal meeting of undertrails with their relatives and passing eatables and cigarettes to them. Balwinder Singh denied having misbehaved with the girl and claimed that he had taken charge of the escort only today and was not aware about any such illegal practises. Soon after the incident, a large number of onlookers gathered as Amit was taken to a guard room and quizzed by the Deputy Superintendent of Police, City-II, DS Mann and the Station House Officer of the Matour police station, Tarlochan Singh. All that while, the girl kept accusing the policemen of harassing relatives of undertrials and demanding bribe to extend favours. On the basis of the statement of an eyewitness, the undertrial and his fiancee were booked under various Sections of the Indian Penal Code for obstructing a government servant from performing duty, hurting religious sentiments, and criminal conspiracy. The DSP said the undertrial was a hardcore criminal and was facing 33 cases of dacoity, robbery and murder at Ludhiana, Mohali and other places in Punjab. At present, he was facing trial in connection with a dacoity at Sohana. Amit reportedly met the girl at a Patiala jail when she was arrested in connection with the arrest of her mother who was booked for the murder of Hari Charan Vashisht, a spiritual leader of Manauli village. Amit would be brought on production warrant from Patiala and the girl would be produced in court tomorrow. No frisking of undertrials
The incident has exposed chinks in security at the lockup. The matchstick used to burn the policeman’s turban was smuggled in with the knowledge of the cops escorting him. To prove his point, Amit repeatedly displayed the matchstick box and a pack of cigarettes. Sources in the police did not rule out the possibility of cops extending favours to undertrails after accepting bribes. The DSP said he would look into the
matter. |
Boy beats up doctor
Chandigarh, November 21 Dr Ashok Kumar posted at the emergency unit was taken aback as the boy charged at him soon after he declared that his mother Karam Jeet Kaur, who had been rushed to the emergency, was already dead. Hearing this, the boy became violent and slapped Dr Ashok Kumar who is physically challenged. He kept thrashing him till the security staff came to the doctor’s rescue. The boy has been handed over to the police. The assault has left doctors horrified. They said security should be spruced up to deal with such emotional outbursts. “This is not the first incident. In the past too, doctors have been thrashed. It’s not our fault if a patient dies or is not well, but we suffer due to the perceived notion of negligence on our part. It is not just an act of emotional outburst, but it undermines the dignity of doctors,” a doctor said. |
One-kanal plot fetches GMADA whopping Rs 4.6 crore
Mohali, November 21 On the first day of the auction, GMADA earned Rs 107.34 crore from the sale of 32 residential plots. Officials attributed the good response to the reduction in reserve price of plots. What surprised many was that a 500 sq yard plot, which was available in the open market for less than Rs 4 crore, was bought by Amarjeet Singh, a liquor contractor and brother of Kharar MLA, for Rs 4.6 crore, taking the reserve price per sq yard to Rs 92,000. On similar lines, a 100 sq yard plot (four marla) in Sector 63 (Phase IX) was sold for a whopping Rs 1.25 crore against a reserve price of Rs 41 lakh. Shalinder Anand, a real estate agent, said the plots were sold higher than their market price. “This means that the average price of the 100 sq yard plot comes to Rs 1.25 lakh per sq yard. It is exorbitant and does not allow genuine buyers to dream of owning a plot,” said an NRI bidder, who did not wish to be quoted. It was pointed out that the clause of 25 per cent payment before allowing the transfer of ownership had been brought in again to help speculators. The Chief Administrator of GMADA, Sarvjit Singh, repeatedly stressed that speculators would be dealt with sternly. Most of the residential plots auctioned were located in a pocket of Sector 71. Another 500 sq yard plot was sold for Rs 4.56 crore while another plot of the same size was sold for Rs 3.91 crore against a reserved price of Rs 2.01 crore. The lowest price fetched by a plot was Rs 3.65 crore. In Sector 56, a six-marla plot was sold for Rs 1.16
crore.
Commercial auction
In the auction of 22 commercial sites, including built-up booths in Sector 70, GMADA earned around
Rs 12 crore. The highest bid was attracted by a booth that went for Rs
45 lakh against a reserved price of Rs 8.33 lakh. The lowest bid was attracted by another booth that went for
Rs 37 lakh. |
GMCH doctor personates as HoD
Chandigarh, November 21 When contacted, the Director-Principal of the hospital, Dr Raj Bahadur, said he was aware of the case and Dr Goel had been warned against using the designation of the HoD. Asked why no action had been initiated against him, Dr Bahadur said the doctor had apologised. And incidentally this isn’t the first time when Dr Goel has courted controversy and has managed to wriggle out unscathed. Charges were framed against him in 2010 for allegedly abetting the suicide of a third semester MBBS student Jaspreet Singh in 2008, but no action was initiated against him. According to insiders, in the absence of a regular head of the community medicine department, Dr Goel has looking after its affairs, but has not been officially appointed as the HoD. However, for quite some time he has been “wrongly” signing documents and orders pertaining to the department as “professor and head”. The Tribune is in the possession of some letters signed by Dr Goel as “professor and head”, dated 2005, 2008 and 2011. Information sought under the RTI states: “There is no regular head of the department of community medicine and Dr NK Goel is only looking after the affairs of the department.” The RTI response by the CPIO categorically mentions that Dr Goel is “not a regular professor and he has been re-designated as professor under the career advancement scheme”. Contrary to Dr Bahadur’s stand, an advocate, RS Bajaj, said Dr Goel was liable of both civil and criminal action. The department should have conducted an inquiry and taken action or even gone in for a criminal complaint of impersonation and cheating. Efforts to contact Dr Goel proved futile. |
mc Elections
Chandigarh, November 21 The Chandigarh Jan Manch party has nominated her name from Ward No. 14, where her son was kidnapped. “Instead of continuing with the blame game of finding the guilty in the series of events in which we lost our son, I would rather enter the system and attempt to make a positive change in governance. I want the response system to be more humane. A child’s kidnapping cannot be compared to routine crime like stealing, snatching or forgery. We need a more humane approach,” Kulwinder Kaur said, her eyes welling up. Khushpreet was kidnapped from outside his residence in Burail on December 21, 2010. His dead body was recovered on January 6, 2011, from near the residence in Mohali. For a woman who had remained confined to her home, Kulwinder Kaur said: “During our days of trial
during the unfortunate incident, I realised that corruption had seeped in as a permanent feature of our democracy. I don’t have any political experience in wooing voters, however, I am well aware about the ground difficulties that a common man faces in getting his grievances redressed. I don’t want to make any claims about taking on political bigwigs. I want to take the issues of a common man to the right forum for arguing their case earnestly.” Taking an initiative in involving the public, the Chandigarh Jan Manch has also announced the names of nine more candidates, including Joginder Kaur Mukherjee, Gurnam Singh Baniwal, Gurpreet Kaur Chauhan, Shyam Sunder Singla, Ranjeet Kaur, Sandeep Paswan, Jatinder Kumar Sawhney, Subhash Sharma and Bal Krishan. A party spokesperson said the names of candidates for the remaining 16 wards would be declared within a few days.

MC Ward Woes Public utility services Primary schools
In a decade, the UT education department has not been able to renovate the primary school building, which is a shambles for long. Surprisingly, the infrastructure of two of the schools is also in such a bad condition that most part of the classroom ceiling has cracks. There are broken windows panes and some of the classrooms do not have proper blackboards and proper furniture for children. For the past two years, the UT Administration has not taken up this matter seriously and allots some provisional place to the schools. In fact, a number of top officials paid a visit to these schools and promised renovation, but no action had been taken till date. Provision for college
For long, the proposal for a college has also been made by the authorities, but it has been hanging fire and no decision taken on it. Resultantly, students have no option but to get admission in colleges far away. Residents complain that it is not their duty to remind the authorities to get basic education facilities in their area, but the authorities should implement plans on their own.
Installation of streetlights
For three years, an amount of Rs 15 lakh has been allocated by the ward councillor for the installation of streetlights in the ward, but surprisingly, the work has yet to allotted to any contractor by the MC. Due to this, there are no streetlights installed in the whole ward and residents are facing a problem in commuting. Residents allege that the authorities either support bad elements by not installing streetlights in the ward or remind them of the days when the public had to go back home before sunset.
Bad condition of roads
Re-carpeting of roads in a number of areas has been held up by the authorities, due to which the public is not getting the basic service of roads in the ward. Residents complain that the authorities have a pick-and-choose policy as they keep re-carpeting roads which do not need it while roads which have huge potholes waiting for their turn.
Parking problem
Parking has become a major issue for residents of Mani Majra. Interestingly, besides drafting a proposal to resolve the issue, no action has been taken by the authorities till date. In fact, during the previous elections, an assurance had been given by the candidates that the problem would be resolved when they won. The ground reality is that nobody has turned up again till date.
Sanitation services
It seems that the dumping ground at Dadu Majra is not for residents of Mani Majra. The open space, actually proposed for community parking, has been converted into a dumping ground. Tall claims of the authorities that proper arrangements have been made for garbage collection have been exposed in this ward as every nook and corner of the ward is filled with garbage.
Ward development fund: Out of Rs 130 lakh allotted in the past five years, a sum of Rs 146.81 lakh has been spent till March 2011. How techno savvy your councillor is: Till date, he has neither used Facebook to respond to public grievances, nor used his official e-mail ID to resolve the problems of residents of his ward. How many questions he has put in the House in the past one year (2010): He has not tabled even a single question in the General House meetings. Ward number 25, which is one of the entry points to the city, comprises old Mani Majra, Shanti Nagar, Modern Housing Complex and Gobinpura and is in a sorry state of affairs as a majority
of the beautification works are lying pending for long. The re-carpeting of roads, the installation of streetlights, the installation of booster for better water supply and the development of a playground for children are the facilities which are missing in
the ward. Voter Population Old Manimajra: 25,000 Shanti Nagar: 20,000 Modern Housing
Complex: 18,000 Councillor Gurcharan Dass Kala Party: BJP Achievements

Nothing in place at Ward No. 12
Zirakpur, November 21 Residents said the administration and civic body had totally failed to solve the problem despite repeated requests. Encroachments lead to frequent traffic jams in the area. Some of the encroachments are in form of
boards and hoardings put up along roads. Besides, some of the shopkeepers, too, have encroached upon the land in front of their shops by constructing a concrete pathway. Road are in a pitiable condition at a few residential colonies. In some areas, roads are yet to be laid. Heaps of garbage, non-functional streetlights, wild growth along roads and poor sanitation dot the ward. Situation is no better in Vikas Nagar, Prashant Vihar, Amrit Vihar, Gobind Vihar, Kalghidhar and Hem Vihar. Streetlights have been lying defunct at Punjab Modern Complex and Yog Vihar. Encroachments at furniture market cause inconvenience to visitors. Low power voltage at a few residential colonies aggravates woes as the electricity department has failed to install new transformers. Unhygienic conditions prevail along roads in most of the residential colonies. Residents lamented that the main problem in the ward was selling of construction material along roads. Even the suppliers had started selling the material in residential colonies. They have demanded that the market should be shifted to another place or walls be constructed around the market. |

Poor kids have no place to play
Chandigarh, November 21 The simple reason is that no place has been left where they can play
games like cricket and football. “Where will we go to play,” is the common question of
most of the local children. Since it came into being in 1996, the municipal corporation had started developing all open spaces as greenbelts. “The open spaces have been developed as greenbelts. Playing cricket and football there is out of the question. Now these parks remain occupied by the elderly, who use to raise objections to every action by us,” lamented 15-year-old Rajet
Bector, residing in Sector 28. Expressing similar sentiments, another teenager, Shivesh
Goel, said he had not played his favourite game, cricket, at a proper ground, for the past three months. “We are forced to play cricket on the road in front of our houses. We know that it is risky, but we are left with no option,” said
Shivesh, living in Sector 19. When asked why they
did not go to the nearby school ground for the purpose, he said the watchman used to shoo them away from one while a cricket academy was being run at another, where members use to practise in the mornings and evenings. The state of affairs at the playgrounds in most schools was pathetic. “Who can play at such a ground,” asked 16-year-old Maninder Singh. He pointed to big stones, wild growth and the uneven surface at the ground of a government school in Sector 18. Another local teenager, Shubham Gupta, said
the authorities should ponder on the problem being faced by children in the absence of playgrounds in the city. “Most parents do not allow their children to go far to play. Every child cannot
join a sports academy.
We used to gather in any corner of our ‘mohalla’ for gossip.
Now the elderly have started raising objections to it,” he said. |

Datesheet courts new controversy
Chandigarh, November 21 “A majority of the teachers have already informed us about their pre-planned engagements and requesthave begun pouring in for exemption from duties. The matter of rescheduling the vacation was discussed but no decision was taken and now we cannot do much at the last moment but to urge the teachers to cooperate as we don’t want a show down,” said a senior official of the university. Panjab University is holding the semester examination for the postgraduate courses for the first time this year and thus is keeping its fingers crossed for the smooth conduct of exams. However, according to teachers this cannot be a logic to defy sanctity of the academic calendar. “In majority of the courses, exams start on December 8 and end around December 26 while the break is scheduled from December 10 to January 1. Leave aside invigilation when are we suppose to evaluate? From January 1 the new session will commence and we will be bound to take classes so who will check papers and then we will be held responsible for delay in the results. What is the relevance of academic calendar prepared after a lot of brainstorming? Teachers have no objection to cooperate but can we forgo our scheduled engagements at the last moment?” questioned PUTA president Akshay Kumar. |
