SC student ‘denied’ degree
Ludhiana, July 2 Kuldip alleged that the authorities of Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College have refused to provide a detailed marksheet and a provisional degree certificate after the SC scholarship funds amounting to nearly Rs 1.5 lakh of four semesters was not released by the department concerned. For nearly a month, Kuldip along with his father has been travelling 100 km from Bhoghpur near Jalandhar to Ludhiana on a motorcycle to convince the authorities for releasing relevant documents so that he could apply for a decent job. Narrating his ordeal, Kuldip said: "I am paying the price of being poor. The statement of free education for SC students exists only on papers. As the payment of four semesters has not been released by the directorate of technical education, the college authorities have denied issuing a detailed marksheet and the provisional degree certificate. I lost a job in HCL as my documents were not complete. The college authorities are demanding Rs 1.5 lakh in lieu of issuing the documents. My parents are poor and ailing and I am their only hope." “Everyone knows my plight. Besides urging the college authorities to issue my certificates, I met ADC Neeru Katyal, who spoke to the college authorities on my behalf. Then I met Deputy Director, Technical Education, Mohanbir Singh Sidhu. He told me that he would talk to the college authorities.”€ť Next day Mohanbir Singh told me told me to submit the amount for two semesters. The reply was an eye opener for me. It was enough to realise that the scholarships for SC students was a farce.”€ťEven SGPC president Avtar Singh Makkar and Ajmer Singh Lakhowal, who are chairman and member of the Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College management committee, shattered his hope. "Both the leaders said that I have to deposit the money for two semesters. I agreed, but the college authorities want that I should give them a blank post-dated cheque for Rs 50,000 and sign a bond as well. Exasperated, I met the district welfare officer, who is also looking after the scholarship matters of the SC students, but he, too, did not suggest any way out. I do not know what to do," lamented Kuldip. |

Authorities go slow on Rakh Bagh project
Ludhiana, July 2 The MC officials now claim that the project is in a shambles as the state tourism department is developing Rakh Bagh and till the time this project is complete, they would not be able to start the toy train. The project to develop Rakh Bagh and Nehru Rose Garden started when Hira Singh Gabria was the state tourism minister. Hailing from Ludhiana, Gabria showed interest in the project, but ever since he lost the elections, the pace of the work has slowed down. MC Joint Commissioner AS Sekhon said: “When Gabria was the tourism minister, the project was going on at a normal pace, but now it has slowed down. The engine of the toy train has been repaired. We will start the toy train as soon as the project to develop Rakh Bagh is complete,”€ť claimed Sekhon. However, sources in the MC claimed that the project was unlikely to be completed soon. The state tourism department seems less interested in the project and till the time it’s€ completed, the toy train project is unlikely to start, added sources. This is not the only project in the city that is in a shambles. The boating facility at Nehru Rose Garden has disappeared while the zoo is almost on verge of closure. A city resident recalls: “When Rakh Bagh came into being, it emerged as one of the most spectacular picnic spots ever provided by the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation. With a toy train and a swimming pool, Rakh Bagh was the most visited place in the city.”€ť But today, the beautiful park is crying for maintenance. Wild grass has covered the toy train track and even the ornamental plants are in a poor condition. |
File I-T return at kiosk, mobile van
Ludhiana, July 2 The taxpayers will now not be required to visit the I-T offices or other special camps for filing of returns, tracking refunds and applying for fresh PAN cards. The department has also decided to run and station ‘mobile vans’ in smaller cities manned by I-T-trained personnel, who will help taxpayers perform their tasks in view of the July 31 deadline of filing I-T returns. “The innovative measure has been taken by the department to facilitate the taxpayers. The department had run a pilot project in this regard last year and the plan will be executed this year countrywide. The department will talk to resident welfare associations and other such bodies for establishing temporary kiosks at apartment blocks, large office complexes and other central locations of the city,”€ť a senior I-T official said. The mobile vans in smaller cities will act as a single window for salaried class and other small and marginal taxpayers. Metros and other big centres will have the tax kiosks. These vans and kiosks, which will be stationed at one location for one to two days, will be manned by trained tax return prepares (TRPS) who help the taxpayers in filing returns. The department will also issue advertisements in order to publicise the location and timing of these kiosks and vans. |

Govt schools witness thin attendance
Ludhiana, July 2 The schools authorities called it “carefree attitude” of the students, but teachers considered it the effect of hot weather. Out of 1,300 students, about 750 of senior secondary classes were present at Shaheed Sukhdev Thapar Government Senior Secondary School, Bharat Nagar, and about 150 students, out of 342, from classes VI to X were present today.

According to the Government Senior Secondary School, Gobind Nagar, principal Harjit Lal said, “A large number of children studying in the government schools of the city are of migrants. It is a common tendency among the students that they visit their native village or maternal home during the summer vacations. So, due to the carefree attitude and sometimes due to family problems, they miss the classes for a few days after the summer vacations.” While a teacher from a government school said, “All students cannot bear the scorching heat. Moreover, they are aware of the fact that during power cuts, fans will not be functional, so they might have stayed back at home today.” |

Beopar mandal protests orders
Ludhiana, July 2 Sunil Mehra, state general secretary of the mandal, said the recent decision taken by the Commissioner, excise and taxation, Punjab, was uncalled for, which had termed the dealers as unscrupulous elements. “The dealers or the traders are paying taxes to the tune of Rs 14,000 crore per annum to the state exchequer and the recent step is like keeping a hawk eye on the traders, which we protest,” said Mehra. The Commissioner has asked his officials that they should visit shops and establishments on regular basis and note down the number of running bills/invoices of the dealers. They have been asked to randomly check the customers for issue of retail invoices by the dealers to improve VAT companies. Besides, all ETOs and inspectors will maintain a complete dealer-wise one single register with regard to their field visits and the dealers of the area will be visited at least once in every two months by the officials. Mahinder Aggarwal, mandal secretary, said such “dictatorial” decision taken by the Commissioner will add burden on the traders. “We will act as puppets in the hands of ETOs and ETIs, many of whom are corrupt. This is evident from the fact that in 2007, the Vigilance Bureau had exposed a big scam in the sales tax department, in which about 30 ETOs and ETIs were involved. When we are paying our regular taxes to the government, then where was the need to unnecessarily harass all traders?” asked Aggarwal. He further added that in case the government had any doubt on particular trader, his records must be checked by inspectors or ETOs, but unnecessarily bothering all traders was uncalled for. The traders have asked the government to withdraw this decision, so that the former could work in peaceful conditions. |

Ludhiana, July 2 According to the city residents, the PSPCL is imposing more than six hours of unscheduled power cuts in a day. The power cuts at night make the condition worst. Anuradha Sharma, a resident of Ashok Nagar area, said, “The most unsatisfactory behaviour is of customer care centres, who don’t have any information about the duration of cut.” Ajit Singh, another resident of Shimlapuri, said, “Electricity in their area play hide and seek and their life has gone topsy-turvy.” He further said there were no scheduled power cuts. “Nowadays, the department is not caring about the complaints. People have been facing six to eight hours of cuts in our area,” said Gurdev Singh from the Pakhowal road. Manvi, a teacher from Sarabha Nagar, said, “The PSPCL is imposing three hours of cuts in daytime and three hours during night. Air-conditioners do not work properly during night, so we can’t sleep properly. Night cuts spoil the whole day.” |

City synonymous with luxury cars
Ludhiana, June 2 “When I came to Ludhiana, I was completely surprised by the number of luxury cars that are plying on the city roads,” says Gurjot, who migrated to Ludhiana from Delhi. “It simply epitomises the Punjabi nature of enjoying life in luxury. The good thing about these cars is not that they just don’t have the brand value but the features that take them to the next level,” says Sarabjeet, a factory owner. “Being entrepreneurs, people here have money and feel like spending too. People of the city hanker after being counted among the elite,” says a resident.

Sunita spots niche in creative gardening
Ludhiana, July 2 Slippers, bicycle, clock, cup-plate, teapot, umbrella, handbag and all make her garden look intriguingly different. It is all the manifestation of her imagination, she says, as any object can become an inspiration for plantation of flowers and look beautiful. Passionate about gardening and garden ornaments since 20 years, she has various flowers, garden ornaments and bonsai collections. “Plants and flowers are my penchant and I think everything can become a showcase for the plants,” she says. Whenever an inspiration strikes, she briefs a carpenter or a welder about what she has in mind and then chooses the most appropriate flowers for the new shape created. “I think every form looks beautiful with flowers and plants, but still aesthetics of the creation have to be taken care of. Although she hasn’t studied art, she feels that this is an extension of her artistic disposition, which is not only restricted to this creative gardening but also to embroidery and painting.” She also draws inspiration from European style of gardening. Being meticulous about the kind of look she wants, some projects take a lot of time and search for the perfect material. Creation of flower arrangement from a log of tree took a lot of time, as she had to search for the perfect look for the plant. She plants various seasonal flowers, including petunia, pansies and chrysanthemums. |
Old GT road to open in 2 weeks
Ludhiana, July 2 Since this portion had caved in in mid-April, the MC officials have been adopting a lackadaisical approach in repairing the road. The slow pace of work not only leads to traffic congestion in the area, but also wastage of public money. When just a small portion of this road had caved in, a shopkeeper, Anup Sharma, had informed the MC officials about it in writing. But the MC officials didn’t even bother to take any step to repair the road and just placed concrete slabs around it. Several persons have been injured in accidents, as the concrete slabs were kept right in the middle of the road. Later, another portion of the same road caved in on May 14. Parminder Mehta, a Congress leader and husband of area councillor Sushma Mehta, had visited the spot along with the MC officials on June 19. He had pulled up the officials and directed them to complete the repair work at the earliest. While speaking to The Tribune, RP Gupta, SDO (B&R), said the lentil on the road was constructed today. “We plan to open this road in the coming two weeks so that the area residents and shopkeepers don’t have suffer any more. The remaining repair work on the other side of the road will be carried out after the monsoon season. After consultations with the Operations and Maintenance Cell, we have made temporary arrangements for the flow of water during the rainy season,” said Gupta. |
Jagraon MC fails to cover manholes
Jagraon, July 2 One of these uncovered manholes is located on the road connecting Shashtri Nagar with the Disposal road. This manhole is situated right in the middle of the road and the local residents say an accident is waiting to happen in their area. During night, the uncovered manhole becomes almost invisible. According to the residents, this manhole has been lying uncovered for more than six months. "This is a busy road and hundreds of people use it everyday. This open manhole might prove fatal if not covered immediately. But, it seems the local municipal council officials are waiting for a tragedy to happen," said Rajinder Jain, who resides nearby. There is another uncovered manhole on the Old Sabzi Mandi road. According to the residents, it has been lying uncovered for the past many days. The cemented cover of the manhole had caved in. The residents said though they had brought the matter to the notice of the MC authorities, no action has been taken so far. A local resident, Sony Bhullar, said: "I, along with other residents of the colony, had even met the president of the MC and apprised him about the problem. Though he assured us of getting the manhole covered at the earliest, nothing has been done so far." The problem is bound to become more serious during the rainy season, as these manholes will disappear under rainwater. Meanwhile, president of the MC Baldev Krishan Dhir said he was not aware of the uncovered manholes in the town. He, however, said if there was any it would be covered immediately. |
