70-yr-old woman tied, robbed
Chandigarh, December 12 The woman, Nirmal Dutta, a former Panjab University professor, stays alone in her house. Her husband DL Dutta, a former professor, had died about three years ago. She has two daughters, who are settled abroad. The incident occurred at around 9 pm when Nirmal Dutta went out to park her car inside the house. A masked youth wearing gloves, who was waiting outside, followed her inside the house. He waited for some time and as Nirmal was about to sleep, he brandished a knife at her. He then overpowered her by tying her hands and feet and threatened her to hand over cash and jewellery to him. The robber took away Rs 9,000, an ATM card, two gold rings and a digital camera. Before leaving, he untied her feet and took her mobile phone, which he then kept at the entrance and fled. Dutta used to park her car in the open space in front of her house during the day. Every evening, she would park her car in the porch before locking the doors. Dutta told the police that the person had covered his face with a shawl and she could not see him clearly. She gave him Rs 9,000, an ATM card, two gold rings and a camera. Dutta then approached her neighbour Puneet, who united her hands, following which they called the police. The police has registered a case of robbery under Section 392 of the IPC at the Sector 34 police station. Last week, a father-son duo was robbed of Rs 5 lakh in Mani Majra at gunpoint. The police is clueless in that case.

Mayor fails to rid city of encroachments
Rajinder Nagarkoti Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, December 12 Large-scale encroachments and the failure of the municipal corporation to remove these forced three councillors to resign from the enforcement committee of the civic body. Enforcement committee vice-chairman and BJP councillor Devesh Moudgil, SAD councillor and committee member Malkiat Singh and nominated councillor and committee member DS Sandhu recently resigned from the committee. The seriousness of the Mayor and officials of the enforcement department to solve the problem of encroachments can be gauged from the resignation letter of nominated councillor DS Sandhu, who quit the enforcement committee. “In order to give more time to remove encroachments from MC land, pointed out in public interest, I addressed a letter to the Mayor. In the letter, I gave a clear notice of another week for action by all concerned. In spite of all efforts, the outcome seems to be nil. Hence, I am left with no a option but to resign from the membership of the enforcement committee,” the letter reads. Corridors of various markets in the city have been encroached upon with vendors using the space to sell food items and shopkeepers to display their goods. These encroachments in corridors and pavements leave little space for people to walk. Encroachers are doing brisk business in markets of Sectors 15, 17, 19 and 22 and in a few markets in southern sectors. Sector 17, which was declared an encroachment-free zone by the MC, is full of encroachments. In rehri markets of Sectors 15, 19 and 22, shopkeepers have even rented out the sidewalls of their shops, with the rent for these varying between Rs 5,000 and Rs 15,000. In these markets, it is common to find encroachers fleeing minutes before a raid by the enforcement staff of the municipal corporation. As soon as an MC team leaves their area after a raid, these encroachers come back and start their business again. Shopkeepers are not the only ones to encroach upon government land. Despite the orders of the Punjab and Haryana High Court, many VVIPs in the city have allegedly encroached upon public land by erecting security tents. It was only after Chandigarh Tribune highlighted these encroachments that MC officials some of these. People have now started complaining to the UT Administration to remove these encroachments from MC land. Advocate Anil Mehta of the Milk Colony, Dhanas, said he had written a number of letters to MC officials to remove encroachments from a park in their locality. After failing to get any response from the MC, he had now written to the UT Adviser in this regard, he said. The Mayor said one-year time was not sufficient to solve the encroachment problem. Combined efforts of the UT Administration, the estate office, the MC, the public and traders were required to remove encroachments from the city. She said shortage of staff in the enforcement wing was a hindrance.

Ritika Jha Palial Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, December 12
Going by the analysis of the counsellors addressing the queries of the students, who visited the HIV AIDS testing and counselling centre on the Red Ribbon Express, students were quite confident in raising the tabooed questions. “It is natural for a youth to be curious about sex education. But what turned out to be surprising this time was that these children aged 14 to 17 put forth their doubts about the sexual transmission of the virus while sharing their experiences also,” said one of the counsellors at the designated HIV AIDS counselling centre on the train. Another counsellor said: “It was quite impressive to see the confidence of these children in asking questions related to Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI). In fact, even girl students were equally confident in posing queries. Another observation we made after answering the queries of these children was that many of them were sexually active and were curious raising awareness on HIV transmission too.” The train, which has been launched with the aim of creating awareness on AIDS, was inaugurated in the city today. It was visited by more than 8,266 people, including 5,000 school students. The train will remain stationed at Chandigarh Railway Station for two more days (December 13 and 14).

Scientists say lantana camara, a flowering plant, is a danger to the ecosystem. It is described as an invasive species in many tropical and sub-tropical areas. It adversely affects not only the growth of indigenous plants but also is a threat to biodiversity. It can make animals ill if it is ingested. Parveen Kumar Thind, Additional Deputy Commissioner, said here yesterday that Rs 1 crore had been earmarked by the Centre for each selected district for rooting out the deadly weed. Mohali had already received the funds allocated under the special project. The Punjab Chief Minster was taking a lot of interest in the mission, he added.

It had already been undertaken in various foothill areas. He said the growth of lantana was widespread. It was also found along roadsides and in residential pockets in the rural areas. He estimated that it would take about two months to get rid of the weed in the target areas and said the reclaimed area would be used for cultivation.

Chandigarh, December 12 The students, mainly hailing from Punjab and studying through correspondence courses, face similar problem every year. They fail to get their roll numbers, following which they visit the university for duplicate roll numbers and even pay Rs 110 as fee. SOPU leader Manoj Lubana said:" the fee, charged from students for duplicate roll numbers and mark sheets is unjustified. “There is no mistake of students and the university should not charge fee for duplicate roll numbers." He further added that PU should send the roll numbers and mark sheets through registered posts so that the documents didn’t get misplaced. “The university can charge for registered post from students along with the fee for the course," Lubana said. SOPU also submitted a memorandum to the PU registrar demanding the same. NSUI leader Sunny Mehta, who had earlier approached the university with similar demand, said the PU authorities had turned a blind eye toward the issue. “Earlier there was annual system and students faced the problem only once in a year, however, with the commencement of semester system, students now face the problem twice a year," Mehta said. Meanwhile, PU Registrar AK Bhandari said it was not possible to send registered post to thousands of students at a time. “We are planning to make the roll numbers available online to solve the problem, which is expected to be introduced from the next semester," Registrar said.
