Ludhiana, June 17
Had there been no snags at various sub-stations and a massive fire at 220 KV Lalton Kalan sub station here during the last three weeks, the power situation in the mega city in the extremely hot weather conditions, when the demand for electricity increases manifold and power supply has to be provided to tubewells also for paddy sowing, would have been much better. Claiming this in a talk with The Tribune, Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL) Central Zone Chief Engineer KL Sharma said elaborate maintenance and upgradation measures were taken in the city by the PSPCL to cope with the increased load of electricity.

"During the last few months, new 66 KV transformers with a total capacity of 302 MVA were installed. In addition, 1,608-km 11 KV lines and 11 kilometres 66 KV lines were laid. In order to strengthen the local distribution system, as many as 4,421 distribution transformers were made operational," he stated.

He said the PSPCL had made all possible efforts towards the maintenance of lines, upgradation of sub-stations and laying new distribution equipment in order to bring about qualitative improvement in the power supply to the city during the summer season.

"However, the power scenario took a turn for the worse on May 21 when one 100 MVA transformer at 220 KV Ferozepur Road sub-station developed a fault. And before this transformer could be made operational, there was a fire in 220 KV Lalton sub station on May 25 which damaged two 100 MVA transformers. Even though transformers installed at Lalton were repaired/reconstructed in a record time, on June 15, the repaired 100 MVA transformer at Ferozepur Road sub station against went out of the system, causing a

shortfall of some 20 per cent. According to the Chief Engineer, the power supply being provided to through 220 KV Ferozepur Road, 220 KV Humbran Road, 66 KV Rajguru Nagar, 66 KV Balloke Road, 66 KV DC Complex, 66 KV South City, 66 KV Amaltas, 66 KV Model Town, 66 KV Dugri, 66 KV Gill Road and 66 KV Basant Park feeders have been affected where power cuts for three to four hours were being imposed during the day.

Meanwhile, CS Mann, Engineer-in-Chief, Punjab State Transmission Corporation Limited, said the repair work of the 100 MVA transformer at Ferozepur Road sub-station had been taken in hand by the technical staff of the manufacturers as the equipment was under the warranty period. "The repair work is expected to be completed in about 10 days time," he added.

With the weather gods remaining harsh and the power utility imposing unscheduled power cuts for anything from four to six hours in residential areas of the mega city, life of the people here has become miserable as no relief either from the scorching heat or by way of improvement in power supply seems to be in sight in the near future.

In the wake of erratic power supply, that is becoming worse when it is needed the most, majority of the city residents have become wary of tall claims being made by the senior government functionaries of making the state power surplus, or even by the authorities of Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL) who let no opportunity go to elaborate on steps taken to augment the power supply and upgrade the local distribution system.

Several residents from posh areas of Sarabha Nagar, BRS Nagar, Rajguru Nagar, other localities along Ferozpeur Road, Dugri, Model Town, Civil Lines, Haibowal, Kundanpuri, and old city localities complained of extended power cuts during the day and night.

Those having sleepless nights as the inverters also stop working due to insufficient charging and exhausted batteries, mock the PSPCL assertions that duration of the power cut at one time will not be more than an hour, and not more than three or four power cuts of an hour's duration each will be imposed. "We have had at least half a dozen power cuts during the day on Saturday with one imposed at noon lasting for two hours and fifteen minutes," said Surinder Kumar, a resident of Rajinder Nagar locality."

People are particularly sore over the unimaginative schedule of power cuts drawn by the PSPCL officials, which has led to scarcity of water in most of the city localities with residents in the old city areas being the worst sufferers. "Our localities are already deficit in water supply and when power cuts are applied in the morning, afternoon or late evening, we have to go without water supply as well in the blistering hot weather," complained many residents of Daresi Road, Purana Bazar, Lakkar Bazar, Mochpura and Field Ganj.

Scoffing at public announcements of the senior leaders of the ruling alliance to the effect that Punjab will become a power surplus state, quite a few suffering city residents said, "Let those making castles in the air realise the plight of the people and the ground realities. When adequate power supply during peak summer is a far cry right now, where does such tall claims stand?" Sher Singh, a senior citizen wondered.

Exactly a week after the broad daylight killing of Gurvinder Singh, aka Bunty Bajwa, a former sarpanch of Bahadurke village, the victim’s family members have demanded the arrest of rest of the accused involved in the murder case.

Emotional scenes were witnessed at a local resort near Jalandhar Bypass where the grieving relatives of Bunty Bajwa demanded capital punishment for the persons involved in the killing of the victim.

The victim’s wife, along with her three children, including two daughters and one son, while addressing a press conference, demanded that if elections were all about settling personal scores and killing each other, the government should put an end to this menace (elections).

“I have lost my husband. The lives of my children have been devastated. All of them who were involved in the killing of my husband should be given stern punishment,” said the victim’s wife.

Rashpal Singh, the victim’s maternal uncle, claimed that a sitting MLA of the ruling party had allegedly threatened Bunty Bajwa and warned him with dire consequences as the victim was supporting an independent candidate in the civic elections.

While the main accused Karanbir was arrested two days ago, Gurdev Singh and his accomplices, including Balwinder Singh, Davinder Singh and Vicky Sakhon, are on the run. Rashpal said the police was working under pressure and not arresting the accused persons.

Bajwa was shot dead from a point-blank range by Karanbir during the municipal corporation elections held on June 10.

After killing Bajwa, the accused had opened fire and damaged over 10 vehicles to scare the crowd.

The victim was a supporter of Independent candidate Gurdeep Singh Bittu, while accused Karanbir was backing SAD candidate Baljinder Singh Goggi of ward no 1.

Initially, the incident was linked with the violence during the municipal corporation elections, but the investigation took a u-turn when the police came to know that both victim and the accused were bitter rivals and had been involved in bloody clashes earlier.

Two jail inmates were injured after a cocking gas cylinder caught fire in the kitchen of the central jail here today.

The victims, identified as Surinder (35) and Ramesh (38), sustained over 30 per cent burns and were rushed to Civil Hospital for treatment. Their condition was stated to be stable.

The incident took place here this afternoon when Surinder and Ramesh were cooking food in the common kitchen on the jail premises.

Suddenly the cooking gas cylinder caught fire due to the leakage in the gas pipe and both sustained burn injuries. The jail inmates and guard swung into action and poured water on the duo to douse the fire.

The flames from the cylinder led to the burning of wooden items lying in the kitchen. But the inmates soon controlled the fire.

Surinder is undergoing jail term in a murder case, while Ramesh is in jail in a case of forcing someone to commit suicide.

The decision on finalising the name of Ludhiana Mayor would be taken after June 20, the day when the Deputy CM Sukhbir Singh Badal returns from abroad. Ever since the elections held on June 10, the Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) councillors have been lobbying hard for getting elected as the Mayor.

As per the internal arrangement between the Akali Dal and Bharatiya Janta Party, the post of Mayor goes with the Akali Dal, while the posts of Senior Deputy Mayor and Deputy Mayor remain with the BJP.

The main contenders for the post of Mayor are three-time councillor Pal Singh Grewal, outgoing Mayor and a five-time councillor Hakam Singh Giaspura and youth leader from the Bains group Kamaljit Singh Karwal.

Earlier, the SAD wanted that a Hindu face should be made its Mayor. Sources said that for this purpose, the party had allotted party ticket to senior Akali leader Harish Rai Dhanda from ward number 28 of the city.

“When Dhanda was given party ticket, almost everyone in the city’s political as well as social circle knew that Dhanda would be made the Mayor. But his defeat by 276 votes to Maharaj Singh Raji of the Congress changed the party’s plans. The Akali Dal wanted a Hindu face so that the party could be benefited in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections,” said sources.

On June 12, PWD minister Sharanjit Singh Dhillon had organised a meeting at his house. The meeting was attended by all Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) and Bharatiya Janta Party councillors, MLAs and other senior party leaders. Party leaders say that by organising this meeting, Dhillon had tried to send a clear signal that he would be playing an important role in the selection of Mayor.

Party sources said that Sharanjit Singh Dhillon might oppose Pal Singh Grewal as a cold war is going on between both of them for a long time.

“A senior citizen named Nachattar Singh had also recently accused Pal Singh Grewal of manhandling him. Hakam Singh Giaspura might not get a second term as he has already been adjusted when he was made the Mayor in 2007. Kamaljit Singh Karwal is backed by the Bains group and he might face some opposition from a section of Akali leaders because he was first expelled and then taken back into the party recently. He is also one of the main accused in Tehsildar Gurjinder Singh Benipal stripping and assault case. So the final decision would be taken by the Deputy CM himself,” said a senior party leader who did not wish to be identified.

It is also learnt that the party might give chance to a youth face this time. “Its not that for becoming a Mayor, one has to be a five time or three time councillor. The person who can lead from the front and is non controversial might get lucky,” said a senior party leader.

While speaking to The Tribune, PWD minister Sharanjit Singh Dhillon said that all rights of appointing the Mayor have been given to Sukhbir Singh Badal.

Sand billowed above as the beast machines rove through the sandy track alongside Sutlej River. The off-road rally through Kadian village had about 35 SUV's trying to outdo one other in the test of driving skills and nerves, negotiating the inclines, river of sand and muddy water. Named Full Throttle Trails, the rally saw various participants from the city with their 4x4 and 4x2 models participate in the off-road event.

The culture of adventure and off-roading rallies is building up in the city, as more such events are being organised by private car clubs as well as, which is a good thing, said a participant.

Participants had their share of delights and adventure during the rally and their own tales to tell as they experienced hurles through the five-kilometre track.

“I enjoyed the challenge while trying to get through the water,” says Naresh Jasra, 41. For Gagandeep Singh and Pawan Sandhu off-roading enthusiasts, the rally was fun and getting through the sand was the most challenging part. A few women along with the male partners participated in the rally. “This was fun, and I also drove back through the sand,” says Richa a housewife. Hemant, a businessman said this really tested the 4x4.

Another resident said that such rallies should be organised more often, because, it is not possible to go in off-roading all alone, because if one gets stuck, it is almost impossible to get out of the deep mud or sand without help, he said. When companies like Tata organise these, they take care of safety measures as well, he said.

Although many of the people get these cars only for a show-off and symbol of luxury, but it is only during off-roading when they can actually experience the 4x4 features and capabilities of these vehicles, said Rishi Dada, a participant.

The trend has started picking up and would mature over a period of time, he said.

According to the organisers, it was an exercise to let the owners of our vehicles realise the capabilities and the reliability of the vehicles. Although this culture of off-roading is more popular down South, but it is picking up in North India as well, he said.

Hot waves and scorching heat has been creating a problem for the commuters at Ludhiana Bus Terminal as vendors are charging more than the print rates on water bottles and beverages. Ironically, commuters have no other option than buy water bottles because water coolers installed at bus stand are providing hot water.

There is not a fix rate of water bottles on the bus stand premises. If someone asks the rate of bottle before than buy then it is Rs 18 or 20. But if someone asks them after breaking the seal of bottle then the rate might be 22 or 25.

Vendors excuse for charging more than print rates that they charge it for cooling the bottles and beverages but according to the instructions printed on beverage bottles that they have to sell it chilled.

Mukhtiar Singh Gill, a daily passenger, said: "Section of the society, who travels by buses, cannot affords to buy 1 liter water bottle every time. So water coolers should be work properly. If administration is not interested to provide this facility to public then social welfare originsation from the city comes forward to arrange chhabeels in bus stand premises."

Manpreet Kaur a commuter said, "When I reached at bus stand I was feeling thirst. I asked for a water bottle from a vendor. I sipped the water and then asked the price of bottle. To my surprise, the vendor answer that it was Rs 25. It is sheer loot and I hope that bus stand authorities would also involve in this."

Rajinder Bhati, manager, bus stand operating company, "I was not aware that vendors at bus stand are overcharging. Now we will check tomorrow if someone found overcharging we will take action against them. There are 5 water coolers in the bus stand. Due to the long power cuts coolers are not working properly."

Thousands of commuters are facing tough time at Saheed Sukhdev Inter-State bus terminal everyday as the bus stand authorities failed to provide the basic facilities. For the most of the commuters, chilled water is an issue but apart from it other basic facilities are also not there.

There are three waiting rooms (one is AC and two others are non-AC) available in bus stand for commuters to wait. Ironically, these waiting rooms in the bus stand are not comfortable to sit in this scorching heat, now days. People prefer to sit outside in heat wave than the waiting rooms.

Air-conditioned waiting room for the passengers of the AC busses have single AC which is not able to cool the small waiting room. No one wants to sit in side this room.

"Waiting room for women has also a sad story. There are only two ceiling fans and one of them has been running very slow in speed.

Jagdev, a commuter, sitting in the AC waiting room said, "Air conditioner is working just like a fan. Only one person can sit comfortably who occupied the seat in front of the AC."

"Ceiling fan was not working properly in waiting room so we prefer to sit outside the waiting room," said Joginder Kaur.

Rajinder Singh Bhati, manager, bus stand operating company said, "Due to the rise of temperature air conditioners are not cooling the rooms according to expectation. But there might be some problem in the AC room if AC need to get repaired than we would repair it soon. I will also take care of the fans in women waiting rooms."

Lovely Sondhi parcelled an article costing Rs 2,500 to the US last year. The postage cost him more than Rs 6,200 at a post office in the city. But as the article was not delivered to the destination, he is demanding that the postage as well as the cost of the article should be given to him. Now the cost of the article is being given to him, but he has been denied the postage charges by the Foreign Post Office, New Delhi. He was told that the postage charges could be paid in case of loss of the article only if it is insured at the time when it is sent. But he says, he was not told about it.

Lovely's is not an isolated case. Many residents are unaware that postage charges can only by reclaimed in case of loss or stealing of a parcel sent through post office, only if it is insured. The files submitting such cases speak volumes about it.

His contention is that he should have been informed by officials at post office that insurance facility is available and can be available.

However, the DoP officials say that customers should be aware and should make appropriate enquiries. We are there to accommodate and cooperate any enquiry, as customers should also make appropriate enquiries, because it is not possible to put up such information on signages in the post offices, as there are so many rules.

An official, however, said that getting your parcel insured itself can be a complicated task, for there are no modern day, tamper-proof packaging technology available with the post office that an article to be parcelled can be dispatched in a hassle-free manner. For some assurance, customers should have a unique seal, and wax, and it is packed appropriately.

According to an official, if an insured article posted abroad is lost while it is still in India, a compensation of Rs 1,500 is paid. But if it is lost abroad, compensation is paid according to the rules of the country where it sent, he said, which can vary according to the country, whether zero or has an upper limit of Rs 1 lakh.

Prices of vegetables and fruits although remain stable as compared to last week, but the price are high if compared to last year. At this time when the summer is at its peak, the prices of vegetables usually fall down. But no such trend has been observed this year.

The vegetables are available in full abundance but are highly priced. "Gone are the days when cauliflower and bottle gourd were available at Rs 2 or 5 per kg. Due to inflation and rising temperature, the prices of fruits and vegetables are sky rocketing," said Ahmed, from Mian vegetable and fruit shop at Aggar Nagar.

Ruby, a homemaker, said, “The vegetable prices are not coming down. Nothing is available in the market less than Rs 50 per kg, be it fruits or vegetables. They are burning holes in everyone’s pocket," said she.

It is time for summer vacation and students have started taking classes for improving their handwriting.

Although use of typing has increased in recent time, yet at school and university level good handwriting is still consider as an asset. Legible and beautiful still help students to score well in the exams.

With the emergence of professional tutors to improve handwritings, students are now more curious to join these classes. These professional tutors are claiming that one can improve handwriting in a short period.

Most of the students feel that handwriting is a tool to score more marks in examinations so they are making the most of summer vacations by joining these classes. Other than improving handwritings, these centres also help in increasing writing speed.

"My teachers always scold me for my poor handwriting. Now, after the Class X examination I realised that handwriting is my weakest point. So, I have joined a handwriting improvement centre", Lovepreet, a student. Maneka, a tutor, said, "Majority of our students is from Class V to XII because they want to increase their marks. Our centre also has doctors, advocates and businessmen. Some of them have joined speed enhancement courses, whereas others want to improve their handwritings as they feel embarrassed while writing in front of others.”

"We improve the handwriting using scientific method," said Harmeet, another tutor.

A three-day story writing workshop for children is underway at Sukhdev Singh Bhawan at PAU.

The students are being trained by Jameja Singh Johl, a writer. A lot of children writings are done but those are done by grown-ups, he said. But no matter how childlike one gets, grown-up cannot put themselves in children's shoes.

“This is being organised to let their vivid and vibrant imagination fuel creativity and take form of stories," said Johl. No fees are charged for the workshop.

“Children love when their imagination is tickled with. They are taught to imagine freely and how to develop stories. For example, children were told about a horse that would kick a lot and the horse got christened as "Kicku Ghora" in the class, much to the amusement of the children,” he said. In this way, the children are given different themes on which they use their own imagination and come up with fantastic stories, he said.

He said the children are given things that they can identify with and they build their own imagination around it.

“It is a great exercise for the children not only to channelise their creativity and develop their writing skills but also to fuel their imagination, he concluded.

A fine all-round display by Jaspreet Arora (77 runs and 6 for 15) steered the Navneet Navratnas XI to script an emphatic a 107-run victory against the Vijitash Navratnas XI in the final of the inaugural edition of the Airtel Navratnas Cricket Cup Tournament held at Ashok Malhotra Palm Gardens, Sahnewal on the GT Road, near here last evening.

Four teams namely Navneet Navratnas, Vijitash Navratnas, Maneet Navratnas and Anand Navratnas competed in the three-day tournament in which matches of ten overs each side were played under floodlights.

The final turned out to be a mismatch as the Navneet Navratnas XI romped home victorious without being challenged.

The Navneet Navratnas’ decision to bat first after winning the toss appeared to be a calculated move as they hoisted a huge score of 161 runs after losing just one wicket in the stipulated 10 overs.

The main architect of their innings was Jaspreet Arora who played a swashbuckling 77 runs to help his team to reach a big score. He also excelled with the ball, capturing six wickets for 15 runs that restricted the Vijitash Navratnas to a paltry total of 54 runs with one over to spare.

For the Vijitash Navratnas, except for Arjun Soni who contributed 27 runs. Jaspreet Arora was declared the player of the tournament.

Prashant Gambhir, ZBM, Airtel handed over the Airtel Navratnas Cup to the winning team.
