Doon hospital starved of funds
Dehradun, July 31 An amount of Rs 2 crore was released as its first instalment against the outlay of Rs 11.35 crore for 2014-2015. The entire amount went towards payment of a portion of pending dues, but such is the state of the hospital that it has once again accumulated liabilities and does not have enough money to pay salaries to contractual staff. The hospital expenditure includes expenses on local purchase, general medicines, payment of salaries to contractual employees, including doctors hired, Class IV staff, ward boys, guards and surgical, oxygen supply and purchase of glucose, purchase of dye and contrast and daily diet for patients. “By all accounts, we should have received the first instalment in the first quarter, but we received it in July when the second quarter has already begun. The bill amounting to Rs 80 lakh is pending incurred while making local purchase of medicines, Rs 1.5 crore is pending under general medicines, Rs 80 lakh towards surgical. Besides Rs 15 lakh per month is incurred on salaries paid to contractual staff,” said a senior official. In fact, it is a not the first time that the hospital finds itself in a crisis that has much to do with the Uttarakhand Government’s tight-fisted approach. “For this financial year, the Department of Finance released a total of Rs 8 lakh for all state district hospitals and the Doon Hospital received an amount of Rs 2 crore as first instalment for this financial year,” said a senior doctor. Meanwhile, accepting that the financial crisis was indeed forcing the hospital to cut corners, Doon Hospital Principal Superintendent Dr RS Aswal said the hospital would try to meet the crisis but in case things become difficult, it would have no choice but to raise the demand for release of another instalment. |

Leopard menace gives sleepless nights to villagers
Dehradun, July 31 Leopard population has seen a surge in the state in the recent years. They are also coming into conflict with humans in Dehradun villages that are located near forests. One such locality is Premnagar, where leopard movement has been a continuous sight for the past several years. The latest being only a few days back when a leopard was witnessed inside a wedding hall. The leopard injured a woman and caused panic among people. A leopard was witnessed yesterday at Bajawala village that lies in the close proximity to Premnagar. The leopard entered a courtyard of a house belonging to one Sarita Devi, who saw the leopard and raised an alarm. She rushed to rescue her two kids who were playing in the house. Hearing her cries, the leopard fled away. The Forest Research Institute (FRI), Dehradun, shares its campus boundary wall with Bajawala village. The institute is also facing leopard problem for the past several years. The local villagers are blaming the forest authorities of doing a little to protect them from the prowling leopards. On the other hand, the Dehradun division forest authorities said they were quick in responding whenever they came across leopard incursions in habitations. They said apart from regular patrolling in the affected villages, they also installed cages to trap leopard.

HC gives three weeks to Forest Dept to reply on initiatives taken
Dehradun, July 31 A combined Bench of Acting Chief Justice VK Bisht and Justice UC Dhyani sought reply from the state forest authorities within three weeks. Bugyals, either flat or sloped meadows, are carpeted with green grass and seasonal flowers. At elevations ranging between 3,300 m and 4,000 m, these alpine meadows remain snow covered in winters. In a petition filed at the Nainital High Court, DS Patwal, president of the Aali Bedni Bagjee Bugyal Sanrakshan Samiti, had alleged rampant commercialisation of bugyals. Patwal said fiber huts were coming up in bugyals in the name of tourism promotion. He alleged there had been a little effort on part of authorities to conserve these bugyals. Significantly, the court, who sought reply from the state forest authorities, also expressed concern over the threat to bugyals from a fern, which has taken over sacred meadows. According to the petitioner, this fern, identified as drynaria mallis and popularly known as Parjeeve Bail, was proving detrimental to Aali Bedni Bagjee bugyals and needed immediate eradication. Besides being a repository of water, these bugyals keep immense importance as they are the home of many animals such as bharal, thar, deer, leopards, bears, hares and many species of birds. The recession of Bugyal is bound to have repercussion in the entire ecosystem in the fragile Garhwal Himalayas. Interestingly, the Forest Research Institute, Dehradun, had raised concern over the neglect of bugyals, particularly over the invasion of trees into bugyals. The FRI authorities had even asked the Space Application Centre authorities in Ahmedabad for satellite images to reach to exact nature of ingress made by these tree species. |

Mayor constitutes committees to study uncovered properties
Dehradun, July 31 The three committees, comprising of four members of the Dehradun Municipal Corporation’s (DMC) working member committee, have been assigned 20 wards each. Elaborating further, Chamoli said the main task of the committee members would be to study the commercial properties in their respective wards and prepare a report of those properties that had not been assessed. “Action will be taken on the feedback submitted by the committee members,” he added. It may be mentioned here that on Wednesday, a number of councilors had created a ruckus during the DMC working member committee meeting. They alleged the under-assessment of the mall being operated by the Pacific Development Corporation Limited at Rs 2.83 crore. The decision to form the committees came after some councilors led by Congress councilor Jagdish Dhiman alleged that the newly constructed shopping complex was not covered by the DMC in the present assessment. To tackle the sanitation menace of the state capital, the Mayor gave a nod to the civic body to purchase dustbins. However, reacting to the unsanctioned purchase of dustbins made by former Mukhya Nagar Adhikari Ashok Kumar, the Mayor said: “In future no purchase even in public interest will be sanctioned without the prior approval of the committee or board members. Any purchases will have to take place through proper channel and sanctions from the authorities concerned.” Meanwhile, on the second day of the committee meeting, 26 disputed cases regarding mutation (change of title ownership) of properties were brought before the members. The panel gave decision in 18 cases, while a fresh date was given for three others.

Students planning to contest elections a worried lot
Mussoorie, July 31 The Municipal Post Graduate College is the only college in Mussoorie that caters to the students interested in higher studies in the area. The college at the start of the new session every year also becomes a centre for student politics with various student factions trying to get as many number of students admitted in the college to increase their vote counts, in order to gain upper hand in the student body elections. Not any more. With the recent High Court directives to adhere to the criteria of merit during the admissions in the colleges, various student factions vying for the coveted student body are demanding increase in number increase of seats at MPG College. The leaders from the students wings of political parties, NSUI and ABVP, are of the view that if merit criterion is introduced in MPG College, the poor students from government schools will be left out and have no other option to seek further education in the state. The Tribune has learnt that the state government has pleaded in the court to provide some relaxation in the matter and the hearing will come up on August 7 in High Court. Until then the various student factions from the political parties are awaiting the decision with their fingers crossed in the matter. However, many meritorious students aiming to seek admission in the MPG College are in favour of merit criteria in the college as it will curb the practice of admitting students who come only to vote during the college students body elections. The earlier practice in the MPG College has been that around 700 students are admitted in the first year, of which most of them do not attend the college for even a single day, as their sole purpose is to vote for the candidate who has paid their admission fee allegedly. The former teachers from the college were of the view that admission should be done on merit basis so that the teachers can focus on teaching the students in a much better way. Presently, even the teachers do not have the knowledge about the number of students in the class, said former teachers of the college. When contacted the Principal of MPG College, Sudhir Gairola, said that the college has received the directives of the High Court for ensuring the merit criteria for admissions in first year as prescribed by the university. |

Ex-CPI leader forms new political outfit
Dehradun, July 31 Martoliya, while addressing a press conference, said the newly formed party would focus on six districts and develop them as a fertile ground for the party. “The state was in dire need of a new forum. It was only after having numerous consultations with the supporters and well-wishers that the outfit has been formed and formally introduced. Even after 14 years of its creation, the state does not have a party that can fight for the public causes. Therefore, it was decided to form Uttarakhand
Janmorcha,” he added. “Focus will be laid on every village falling in the six districts. We aim to strengthen the party from the grassroots level. A five-member committee will be formed in the coming days that will draft the party’s manifesto,” said
