anupama case Tribune News Service
Chandgarh, October 3 The Rs 85-lakh compensation claim filed by parents of Anupama, the girl who met a tragic end allegedly at the hands of PGI doctors, today came up for hearing before the commission. Pankaj Chandgothia, counsel for Amit and Konika Sarkar, Anupama’s parents, contended that the present case is a case of “res ipsa loquitur”. Negligence of the PGI is evident from the facts of the case, contended Chandgothia. The petition in the case alleged that Anupama was taken to the Advanced Trauma Centre of the PGI by the police authorities where her left leg was bandaged by a doctor on duty, identified as Dr Jhujhar. However, the required operation was never arranged and Anupama continued to suffer in excruciating pain, both mentally and physically. The complainants also suffered pain and agony on seeing the plight of their only daughter, said the petition. The condition of Anupama deteriorated day after day. No medical attention was being given to her by the PGI doctors after the initial bandaging. So much so that, even the bandage was not changed and the wounds were not washed for days together, leading to development of gangrene and septicemia, which ultimately proved fatal for Anupama, said the parents in the petition. |

Daughter’s death Hina Rohtaki Tribune News Service
Panchkula, October 3 The forensic team also reached Reena’s residence at Sector 8, Panchkula, today in order to carry out investigations. Relatives of Reena were seen requesting the police at the Sector 5 police station this evening not to register a murder case against Reena, saying “she is already dead”. Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Virender Sangwan also reached the spot. Meanwhile, post-mortem of the child, Ameesha, was conducted and viscera was sent to Madhuban. The body of the child was handed over to the family and later on Ameesha was cremated. On the other hand, the condition of Reena continues to be critical. “Whatever the situation and circumstances may be, but she has no right to kill her child. Instead of registering an attempt to suicide case, we are planning to register a murder case under Section 302 of the IPC against Reena,” said a senior police official. She further added, “Even today our officials went to record the statements of Reena, but she is not fit to give any statement. But we are on with our investigations.” Not only this, the police is also coordinating with the Chandigarh Police in order to get some clues from the suicide case of Mohit Garg, Reena’s husband. Incidentally, the father of the child, Mohit Garg, too, had committed suicide after consuming pesticide at the Leisure Valley, Sector 10, Chandigarh, three months back. “The relatives have requested that Reena did all that in a fit of extreme depression. But whatever the case may be, an innocent child has been made to lose her life,” said another police official. “Her whole family has finished. Reena is still critical and doctors are not saying anything,” said Vinay Kumar, a relative of Reena. The mother-daughter duo was staying alone in a rented accommodation in Sector 8. Reena was reportedly unemployed and was dependant on her parents. Ameesha was a student of class V at St Kabir School, Sector 26, Chandigarh. |

School hockey: only 14 teams turn up
Chandigarh, October 3 As per official record, only four teams are there in under-19, six in under-17 and four in under-14 categories have marked their presence in the tournament. As per UT Sports Department, at least seven teams are required in each category (there are three) to bring the tournament under certificate gradation policy. The low turnout of teams was also witnessed during the pre-Nehru Cup hockey tournaments this year and the year before. The officials said the pre-Nehru Cup was a qualifying tournament, and hence witnessed a low turnout. However, the inter-school tournament is believed to be the only platform for the officials to select city’s team for the national games. There are 105 government schools under the UT Education Department in the city, out of which 33 schools are of senior secondary level and yet the department failed to encourage more teams to take part. Although after repeated efforts Director of Public Instructions (DPI) and District Education Officer (DEO) remained unavailable for comments, Assistant Education Officer Rajeev Tandon said it was a helpless situation for the department. “If we look at other games like cricket, players and schools show interest to participate. However, when it comes to hockey no one comes forward,” said Tandon. When questioned about the efforts put by the department to encourage the students to take up hockey and the number of specialised PTI hockey teachers employed in schools, the officials passed the buck on to the District Sports Organiser. When asked about low turnout in previous tournaments, he added, “Hockey is lagging behind and you (reporters) should contact the District Sports Organiser.” District Sports Organiser Amardeep Singh said, “The situation is far better than last year. There is a need to boost the game among schools children. Specialised hockey teachers need to work more.” ‘Players will not get benefits of gradation policy’ The officials of the UT Sports Department stated that the ongoing tournament will not fall under the ‘certificate’ gradation policy. "As per rules, at least seven teams are required in each category (there are three) to bring the tournament under the gradation policy. If the ongoing tournament has less number of teams, the players will not be given any benefit," said KS Bharti, District Sports Officer. Official record
