It is the same old story every year
Ludhiana, August 5 In low-lying areas, rainwater entered houses and commercial establishments, adding to the woes of residents. In some localities, backflow of waste water from sewer lines due to the poor drainage system was reported. Overflowing sewage worsened the situation. As the downpour continued relentlessly for quite some time, most of the main roads in the old city area as well in some of the posh localities looked like water bodies. Old GT Road (from the railway station to Clock Tower) and Ferozepur Road (near MBD Mall) were under water. Ditto was the situation in Sarabha Nagar, parts of BRS Nagar, Dugri, Ghumar Mandi, Maharani Jhansi Road, Guru Nanakpura, Haibowal, Old DMC Road, Model Gram, Dholewal and many areas in old city including Chaura Bazar, Saban Bazar, Talab Bazar, Gokal Road, Neemwala Chowk, Field Ganj, Shingar Road and Old Jail Road. The administration was under fire for poor drainage network, inadequate sewer lines and particularly for its failure to clean up drains (nullahs) flowing through many parts of the old city. Parminder Mehta, spokesperson for Congress councillors, said even though a storm water sewer had been laid in commercial hubs of the old city such as Chaura Bazar and Saban Bazar, since the MC authorities had failed to clean up the nullah flowing through Talab Bazar, the areas had to face the fury of accumulated rain water. Prateek Gupta, a resident of Sarabha Nagar, said water-logged roads in posh localities, including parts of Sarabha Nagar, spoke volumes of the lack of preparedness for the rainy season on the part of the civic administration. “Inadequate and clogged sewer network in the area was not cleaned up with the result that rainwater had nowhere to go, except accumulating on roads and streets,” he said.

Beware of waterborne diseases: GADVASU experts
Many waterborne diseases such as giardiasis, cryptosporidiosis, hepatitis A and E viral infections (jaundice), leptospirosis, typhoid, cholera and food poisoning occur due to consumption of contaminated water in the rainy season. This was stated by Dr JPS Gill, director, School of Public Health and Zoonoses, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University. Waterborne disease is dominated by pathogens transmitted by the faecal-oral route and by drinking water. These diseases in infancy can lead to systemic immune system imbalances, increasing stunting and reducing cognizance. Experts from the School of Public Health and Zoonoses advised the public to take care of their health in such climate conditions. During the season, blockage and overflow of sewage pipes is a major source of contamination of drinking water supply. People must take preventive measures such as ensuring that water does not gets accumulated in and around their houses. An individual must consume boiled or purified water. If boiled, the water should be boiled for at least 20 minutes to kill the eggs of the infecting parasites. The experts added that vegetables must be washed with clean water before consumption. An individual must wash his/her hands before taking a meal to ensure good health, added an expert. Ensuring cleanliness will also ensure that diseases such as malaria and dengue are kept under control. In case of any doubt, the water sample should be tested at the authorised laboratories. The facility is also available at the School of Public Health and Zoonosis in the university. A better access to safe water supply, adequate sanitation facilities and better hygiene practices can make developing countries a better place to live in, said an expert on the occasion. — TNS

Go to the market and you will come across clothes that used to be in fashion in the days of yore. Gurinder, a student at PAU, said polka dots and floral shirts have a high attraction quotient. “I have seen actors wearing such shirts in old movies. I was surprised to see the same in a mall. I immediately brought one. It is such a refreshing new trend,” he said. Another student, Luvish, said, “I had saw my grandfather’s photograph in an old family album. It was great to see a similar polka-dotted shirt at a fashion store. “I took that shirt and went home wearing it. Both, my father and grandfather, were pleasantly surprised and recalled their old days,” he said. Even the elderly are happy that the old fashion has made a comeback. Karamjit, a retiree, said, “Although I do not follow fashion any more, but I am happy to see that retro has become hot favourite with the youths.” “I am not longer a fashionable person but, I am still going to get this polka-dotted shirt that I saw a youngster wearing recently. I had a similar shirt once,” he added. Aman, a faculty member from INIFD, said, “Fashion is repeated over time. There may be a slight change to it, as per the latest technology of making products and colours may also be different but, there is undoubtedly a marked resemblance to the old fashion trend.”

Brief spell of rain leaves Jagraon waterlogged
Jagraon, August 5 During a visit to different parts of the town after the rain, it was found that many feet rainwater had accumulated on various roads as well as streets of residential areas. The worse hit areas were Lajpat Rai Road, Sabzi Mandi Road, Kamal Chowk, Sadan Market and Rani Jhansi Chowk. A lot of rainwater had accumulated in these areas thus forcing some of the shopkeepers to even close their shops. In some of the areas, including Old Grain Market, the rainwater even entered some of the shops and damaged goods stored there, causing a lot of financial loss to the shopkeepers. Being located in relatively lower part of the town, Old Grain Market often ends up as being the worst affected area. The shopkeepers of the Old Grain Market always complain of incurring financial losses as the rainwater often enters their shops and stores, thus damaging the goods stored by the shopkeepers there. Every time when it rains, the shopkeepers have to toil to save their goods from the rainwater. Though, the local Municipal Council always makes tall claims of being fully prepared for the rainy season but every time these claims fall flat when it rains. The present rainy season once again exposed the tall claims of the Jagraon Municipal Council about its preparedness to prevent waterlogging during the rainy season. There are two major reasons behind the problem of waterlogging. Firstly, most parts of the town are developed in an unplanned manner. Meanwhile, lack of proper drainage system is the second major reason behind this problem. Besides this, drains are also not cleaned properly which chokes the sewerage and the flow of water. The local residents feel the problem could be solved if the drainage system is improved and the drains are cleaned properly and timely. Jagraon Municipal Council, executive officer, Davinder Toor claimed that the civic body was fully prepared to prevent waterlogging during rains. “All the drains were cleaned properly prior to the rainy season and we have also improved the drainage system. But despite our efforts, the rainwater still accumulates in some lower parts of the town and that is because most of the city is developed in an unplanned manner,” Toor said.

Civic body’s ill-preparedness exposed at Mandi Ahmedgarh
Mandi Ahmedgarh, August 5 The situation has exposed the ill-preparedness of the civic authorities. However, civic body authorities claimed they had made extra arrangements to cope with future situations. Life came to a standstill in the morning, when the heavy rain flooded the low-lying areas, including the Guru Nanak Pura, Jawahar Nagar Area, Mahavir Road, Dehliz Road, Gandhi Chowk, Bhagat Singh Chowk areas and Amarpura Mohalla. Though, contractors deployed by the civic body had been desilting major lines of the sewerage system, inadequate infrastructure seems to have resulted in harrowing time for the residents. Pedestrians, including students and female employees of various organizations, were the worst sufferers. Traders of the town were also disappointed due to varied reasons. While their shops were opened late in the day, customers turned out in lower numbers in the afternoon. Water had entered many shops situated along the Railway Road. Solid waste disposal was also affected adversely due to flooding of streets and roads. Stinking garbage heaps lying on the outskirts of the town worsened proved problematic for passerbys and residents of surrounding localities. The residents had urged the higher authorities to impress upon the municipal council authorities to expedite the cleaning and strengthening of the sewerage system.

RTI Act revelation: Railway pensioners entitled to yearly medical check-up
Ludhiana, August 5 Sher Singh, chairman, Northern Railway Pensioners Welfare Association, stated, “Since many years the retirees have been deprived of this facility as they were not aware of it. So, we filed an RTI.” Resounding the RTI, the Chief Medical Superintendent of Northern Railway, Ferozepur, informed that the medical examination of all retired employees was done on yearly basis but if anybody was suffering from any problem they were not allowed to contact the authorised medical officer for getting the complete medical examination any time. The Chief Medical Superintendent further informed that the authorised medical officer could only do the basic health check-up and refer the patient to a specialist at Divisional Hospital. “If some serious aliment is found, the patient can be sent to Central Hospital in New Delhi or to a private recognised hospital on the discretion of the authorised medical officer,” the CMS added. Chairman Sher Singh said, “Most of the retirees were not aware of this facility so they never asked the doctors for the check-up. The leaders of the association used to get the check-up done with their own influence but common pensioners were deprived of the facility. Now, it is clear for all pensioners and they can take the benefit of this facility.”
