	Kalayat MLA alleges govt fund misuse Satish Seth Kaithal, May 3 Kalayat MLA and former CPS Ram Pal Majra has asked the Haryana government to order a high-level inquiry into the alleged embezzlement of Rs 2.25 crore by a clerk from the DRDA and Zila Parishad funds in Kaithal. Majra alleged that a clerk was withdrawing crores of rupees from banks by changing figures in issued cheques and the department officials had no knowledge about the misdeed. He said the Deputy commissioners and ADCs during whose tenure this scam had taken place were equally responsible for embezzlement of such a huge amount and such officials should be pin-pointed and action be initiated against those found guilty. Majra said in the recent past some miscreants withdrew lakhs of rupees from bank accounts of cooperative sugar mill, Kaithal, and in earlier years, too, a scam had taken place in funds allotted for the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyaan. He said all this pointed that the bureaucrats were not sensitive enough towards the utilisation of public funds meant for development. Majra said during the past financial year, Rs 9.78 crore of funds under the D plan had lapsed as the district administration failed to utilise these funds. Majra took the state government to task following its indictment by Supreme Court in land acquisition in Kalka Pinjore area where a residential complex was being developed by HUDA and the government released land to private builders. He said his party had been raising this issue for the past several years but now the Supreme Court judgement had vindicated his party’s stand.
	Suicide cases on the rise in cyber city Sunit Dhawan Tribune News Service Gurgaon, May 3 The recent spurt in the number of suicide cases in Gurgaon has raised grave concern among the residents of the cyber city. A top executive of a private company, a young woman software engineer, an MBA student, who was niece of the Meghalaya Chief Minister, and an under trial prisoner, who was allegedly ditched by his beloved and charged with rape and abduction, are among those who allegedly ended their lives during the recent days. Jitendra Jain (26), assistant vice-president with a company in Noida, allegedly jumped to his death from the fourth floor of an under-construction building here yesterday. Jain stayed at Malibu Town on the Sohna Road. He had gone to his sister’s house in Sector 47 here, where their parents had also come from Jodhpur in Rajasthan. After having a cup of tea last morning, Jain went to a nearby under-construction building and jumped from its fourth floor. Jyotsna Negi, 26, an executive with a social networking website company here, allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself from a ceiling fan at her rented room at Sukhrali village yesterday. Jyotsna, who hailed from Shimla, HP, talked to her parents on the phone early last morning. The father of the girl sensed that she was not well and asked his relative in Delhi to visit her immediately. On his arrival at 7 am, the relative found Jyotsna hanging in her room. A suicide note found there said no one was responsible for her death. A few days ago, Dana Silva Sangma, niece of Meghalaya Chief Minister Mukul Sangma, and a student of MBA at Amity University, Manesar, allegedly hanged herself to death in her hostel room. The girl took the extreme step after she was caught while allegedly using her cellphone during her examinations, due to which an invigilator took away her answer sheet. In yet another incident, Praveen Sharma from UP allegedly committed suicide in a bathroom of Bhondsi jail where he was lodged. He was undergoing trial on charges of rape and abduction, though his family maintained that he had been jilted and cheated by a Gurgaon-based girl he loved. “The girl first eloped with him, but when they returned after a few days, the girl lodged a complaint of abduction and rape against him,” they alleged. No let-up in abandoning of baby girls Apart from witnessing a marked rise in the number of suicide cases, Gurgaon has seen quite a few instances of baby girls being abandoned in the recent past. There have been reports of small girls being abandoned from other parts of the state as well. While apathetic attitude of parents and the psyche of considering daughters a burden share the blame for the deplorable trend, cumbersome official procedures regarding the adoption of children also need to be addressed. There are many childless couples who want to adopt such small children, but are discouraged by the complicated procedures involved therein.

However, only those tubewells and borewells would be registered, which were installed before August 13, 2011. On August 13, 2011, the Central Ground Water Authority (CGWA) declared the entire Gurgaon district as a notified area, which means that no new tubewell or borewell can be installed in the district after that date without obtaining permission from the Deputy Commissioner. The tubewells and borewells, which had been installed before the notification can be registered now and a special drive has been launched for the purpose from May 1 to July 31.

	INLD to organise Kabir Jayanti at Bhiwani Tribune News Service Hisar, May 3 The INLD is making a determined bid to woo non-Jat communities in the state. As a part of its larger game plan, the party will organise Kabir Jayanti at Bhiwani on June 3. This was announced by Rajya Sabha member Ranbir Gangwa while addressing a meeting of party workers here recently. Gangwa said the INLD was the only party that had taken care of the interests of the Dhanak community in Haryana. The history went back to the time the late Devi Lal was the Chief Minister and later Om Prakash Chautala who succeeded his father. He said the Dhanak community, too, had always backed the INLD and it had played an important role in helping the party form a government on several occasions. He appealed to the members of the community to bring the maximum number of Dhanaks to the function at Bhiwani. Meanwhile, INLD secretary-general Ajay Singh Chautala has said that the people of Haryana have become disillusioned with the Congress government. Addressing party men at a function held here to admit about a dozen Congress workers to the INLD last evening, he said the Bhupinder Singh Hooda government had failed to deliver. The first casualty of Hooda misrule was infrastructure. In the rural areas, no new roads had been laid and old roads had not been maintained properly. Development had come to a standstill as funds were being spent in select areas only at the cost of other parts of the state. Likewise, jobs were also being offered to candidates from a particular area, he alleged. Chautala said the sudden influx of Congressmen into the INLD was indicative of the frustration of the masses with the Congress and the Hooda government.
