Adulterated sweets destroyed
Jagraon, October 18 A team lead by senior doctor of the Jagraon Civil Hospital Dr Harinder Kumar Sharma and health inspectors Gurdev Singh and Hari Singh raided over 10 sweetshops on Lajpat Rai Road, Old Grain Market, Subhash Gate, Raikot Road and Old City areas. During the raids, the workers at majority of the sweetshops were found preparing sweets without wearing gloves. Taking notice of this, the team members issued instructions to the owners of sweetshops to maintain hygiene while preparing sweets. Dr Sharma strictly instructed the shopkeepers to provide gloves to the workers preparing sweets to avoid contamination of the eatables. The team also destroyed sweets kept in unhygienic conditions. However, no sample was taken from any shop during the raid and the shopkeepers were left with warning. Senior medical officer, Civil Hospital, Jagraon Dr RK Karkara said the drive had been launched to keep a check on the sale of unhygienic eatables. "As we have seen in the past that some sweets makers use using adulterated khoya and spurious milk products to earn extra bucks during the festival season. To keep a tab on such malpractices, raid will be conducted on a regular basis," said Dr Karkara. Samples collected
A team of the district health department on Thursday collected samples of sweets from manufacturers and wholesale dealers in Ludhiana. Food safety officer of the health department Ravinder Garg said: "We collected one sample of 'phenian' from Monica phenian manufacturer unit, Shiwaji Nagar, two samples of rasgullas and phenian from Jagdish Sweets, Lakkar Bazar, two samples of rasgullas and phenian from Arora Sweets and two samples of tea and desi ghee from a shop of Ajit Singh and Ashok Kumar, Kesar Ganj." Proper hygiene was also not maintained in these shops.

Residents stage dharna outside MC Commissioner’s residence
Ludhiana, October 18 With the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation authorities having failed to stop operation of the workshop even after sealing the premises thrice during past couple of months, the residents today held a protest at the camp office (residence) of the MC Commissioner to highlight their hardship and seek remedial action. Led by Jagdish Ram, president, and SP Sharma, secretary of the Adarsh Lane Welfare Society, a large number of residents joined the protest and criticised the evasive attitude of the civic administration despite the matter having been brought to the notice of senior officials and intervention of the Principal Secretary, Local Government, Punjab. Residents said that acting on their complaint that the workshop for making sweets was causing pollution and nuisance in the residential locality, the Chief Minister, Punjab, had referred the matter to the Deputy Commissioner, Ludhiana, who had marked an inquiry from the SDM (West) in August 2010. The inquiry officer had ruled against the workshop operating in the residential colony and the report was forwarded to the MC authorities for further action as per the law. However, the civic body failed to act against the owner of the workshop for reasons best known to them. And despite the fact that the workshop was sealed, the MC staff is colluding with the owner and facilitating the operations of preparing sweets. That no action has been taken against the owner of the workshop who had broken the seal of the premises and continued to operate is ample proof that the MC lacks the will to act against the illegal operations of the workshop, alleged residents of the area, who sat on a day-long dharna.When contacted, the MC Commissioner RK Verma said it was not possible to close down a commercial establishment just like that. It has to be first established that the operations are illegal. "As far as location of the workshop in residential area is concerned, it is a common practice and even industrial units are operating in residential areas all over the city. We are examining the matter and action, as per the prevailing law, will be taken very soon in this regard," he added.

Employees' quarters in neglected state
Ludhiana, October 18 These residential quarters were constructed in the 1960s and renovated many years ago. The major problem being faced by the employees is the poor arrangement for water and sanitation. Some of the residents alleged that the PAU authorities took proper care of the quarters for the teaching staff, while neglecting the non-teaching staff. Single room quarters, which were constructed for the Class IV employees, are in the worst condition. The issue of the pathetic condition of these flats was raised by one of the groups contesting for PAU Fourth Class Union elections. Jaskaran Singh, PAU estate officer, said: "It is true that single room flats have been lying vacant for some years, because rooms are small and a family can't reside comfortably. We have converted around 56 quarters into student hostel as the demand for accommodation of students has been increasing in the last few years." He further said, "There are some minor problems in other quarters where maintenance work is required. We, however, do not have sufficient funds."

Dehlon/Mandi Ahmedgarh/Raikot, October 18 Specially constituted anti-sabotage teams have been directed to enhance vigil near religious places, besides undertaking combing operations, to keep a vigil on strangers and anti-social elements, who might slip into the area under the garb of visitors and relatives of residents. Besides stepping up the night vigil, the police has installed special checkposts and intensified patrolling throughout the area. The policemen have been asked to keep in touch with the authorities in the fire department and health centres, so that rescue operation in case of any eventuality could be started without delay. Teams of policemen, supervised by Amandeep Singh Brar, SHO, Dehlon; Rajesh Sharma, SHO, Sudhar; and Gurpartap Singh, SHO, Sadar, undertook combing operations in localities situated under their jurisdiction last night. Homes of those people who had tried to hide terrorists were searched. Maintaining that the exercise was done to boost the morale of residents and ensure their safety during the festival season, Gurpreet Singh Sikand said beat officers have been directed to ensure that no stranger sneaks into the area under the guise of a relative or a friend of locals. The decision to beef up the security was taken during meetings chaired by Police Commissioner, Ludhiana; Senior Superintendent of Police, Sangrur, and SSP, Ludhiana (Rural), recently. The chiefs had directed the police officials to deal strictly with organised perpetrators of crime. The operation assumes importance in view of the disruptive activities at religious places during the festival season in the past.

Belly dancing her first preference
Ludhiana, October 18 She said the unique thing about the learners here is that even women over 40 years were keen on learning the dance form. "In Delhi, people of this age are not enthusiastic about the dance form," she says. She said that she was fascinated with the dance form and wanted to popularise it among women as it "empowered" them. She became interested in the dance form when she saw a dance performance in Cairo when she was on a visit there as a child. As she grew up, she took dance classes in London from the exponents of belly dancing and came back to settle in India, she says. She is keen to promote the dance form, and negates her own identity as a conduit to take it to the next level. "The reason for participating in reality shows or choreographing in movies is just to promote belly dancing," she says. Having choreographed a dance in the Bollywood movie, "Aiya", she said that she would take up only those assignments that would help her promote the dance, as belly dancing was her first preference, not movies. |

Night shift plays havoc with digestive system: Expert
Ludhiana, October 18 Talking about the importance of such clinics, Sheea Serahawat, a postgraduate in dietetics from IHM, Delhi, and the co-founder of “Diet Clinicchain” said that changing lifestyles and increasing intake of junk food was leading to unhealthy food habits. She said that the emphasis should be on increasing the metabolic rate by "surprising" the body, balancing the diet and not eating the food in a monotonous way. The kind of diet one should take also depends on the blood group, she said. For example, people with A+ blood group should take milk and milk products and those with O+ blood group should take starch and rice. Night shifts play havoc with the digestive system which leads to bad absorption. Other factors to be taken into consideration include personal preferences, lifestyle and the age of the person, she said. She said that the lifestyles these days were changing, and children who had working parents had the propensity to become obese as they took less regular diets. She said that some working professionals skipped food and then gorged on to food late in the night. But this was unhealthy and brought down the metabolic rate. When one had heavy food late in the night, the sluggish metabolism and digestive system led to less burning of food and accumulation of fat, she said.

Ludhiana, October 18 Dr Sandeep Puri, medical superintendent at Dayanand Medical College and Hospital, said: "Dengue is also caused by a virus.

Cases of typhoid, a bacterial disease, are also being reported. Dr BS Shah, medical superintendent at Deepak Hospital, said: "Cases of typhoid keep pouring in throughout the year. It usually occurs due to unhygienic conditions. Milder form of dengue is chikungunya. I have not come across any patient suffering from it this season. Mostly people are suffering from viral. It takes one to two weeks to completely recover from it." Dr Satish Kumar Ohri, a private practitioner, said: "This year cases of viral fever are more as compared to dengue and typhoid. The incubation of viral is between five to seven days, but if it persists it may be typhoid." Dr Deepak Bhatia, project programme officer and project coordinator of integrated disease surveillance, Punjab, also confirmed the rise in cases of viral fever. Dos and Don'ts
