Few takers for vanity numbers
Ludhiana, October 12 Taking note of poor auction results, Anil Garg, District Transport Officer, Ludhiana, said: “I have written about it to the State Transport Commissioner, Punjab, and sought suggestion for the e-auction of the remaining vanity numbers of these series. I have also suggested him to decrease the reserve price of these vanity numbers, as it is one of the reasons behind a few bidders turning up at the auctions. The reserve price for 0001 is Rs 5 lakh and for the numbers between 0002 to 0009, it is 2.5 lakh.” The another reason for decreasing bidders is the revival of the policy on retaining the vanity numbers. Garg said: “A person can use the already purchased vanity number for his new vehicle and can get a new number for his old vehicle. This facility is also affecting the sale of new vanity numbers through e-auction.” Fewer than 60 persons applied for more than 270 vanity numbers offered for sale in the recently held e-auctions on the website of the department, www.punjabtransport.org According to sources, fewer than 30 vanity numbers of the PB10DY series could be auctioned during e-auctions in the past month. This month, only 30 numbers of the PB 10DZ series were sold auctioned in the e-auction. How to apply for online auction One can apply for online auction of vanity numbers on the website of Punjab Transport Department -www.Punjabtransport.org.com. After opening this website, click at e-auctioning and then click at user login and create your own ID. Enter your particulars along with the bidding fee for the particular vanity number. The bidding is closed after a week and vanity numbers are allotted to the highest bidders. A successful bidder has to pay the bid amount online.” The bidding fee is different for different numbers. The fee for 0001 is Rs 2,000. For the numbers between 0002 and 0009 and 0786, the fee is Rs 1,000, and for numbers between 0010 and 0099, Rs 500. For the vanity numbers other than the above-mentioned numbers, the fee is Rs 200 each.

According to the police, the victim used to pick quarrels with the members of his family over petty issues.

On October 5, they put Gurdev’s body in a car and dumped it in the fields of Jandiali village. To hoodwink the police, the accused abandoned Gurdev’s scooter near the body to make it appear as a robbery incident. Gurdev’s son lodged a missing complaint with the police. During investigation, the police stumble upon some vital clues that indicated the involvement of the members of the family in the killing. On Saturday, police rounded up Ranjit Kaur, Babbaljit and Shera. During investigation, they cracked soon and confessed to have killed Gurdev and dumped his body in the fields.

Construction of ‘illegal’ building stopped after MC intervention
The building was being constructed on a piece of land measuring 300 square yard in the Shivpuri area. Following a complaint by the local residents, the officials of the building branch visited the site. They found the building plan was not approved and the construction did not match the specifications of the Town Planning Scheme. Meanwhile, the local residents said the owner had got temporary roads constructed along the building. “Since it is a residential area, it must not be converted into a commercial complex,” said a resident. The Assistant Town Planner (HQ), Kamaljit Kaur, said no illegal colony, as alleged by the local residents, was being constructed in the area. “It is around 5,000-square yard piece of land. According to the MC records, plotting of the area has been done. We found certain discrepancies, so we got the construction stopped immediately. The owner has been told to get the building plan approved at the earliest. The building would be meant for residential, not commercial use,” said the ATP. The spokesperson for the Congress councilors, Parminder Mehta, said the local residents were perturbed as the MC followed “double-standards”. “If a poor person constructs a small room, it is demolished immediately. But when influential persons flout the rules, just warnings are issued to them. Ample time is provided to them to get all their documents completed. The building branch and the advertisement wing are the two core wings in the MC that witness a lot of political interference, leading to revenue losses,” said Mehta. |

Swachh Bharat still a distant dream in Doraha
Doraha, October 12 “The garbage is picked only to be dumped on the roads and streets,” the residents complained. They alleged that the council had practically no place for dumping of the waste and the residents had become the scapegoats. The residents are passing through testing times as the dingy condition in which they are forced to live can make them ill due to various water-borne diseases and fall easy prey to infectious diseases. For instance, Boparai Street, Guru Teg Bahadur Street and Dasmesh Nagar’s dumping area seem to be the worst hit as the townsters have alleged that the garbage was never lifted as a matter of routine at these places. “The government has issued clear instructions to the councils and the committees to launch various health awareness and cleanliness drives under the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, but the residents may have to pay through the nose for the negligence on the part of the latter,” rued one of the residents of the area. The residents of the town also complained that the sanitary employees were not bothered about the early evacuation of accumulated water for days together. “Many a times we have approached the committee entreating upon it to find a permanent solution to the never ending problem but the authorities does not seem to be serious on the issue. The sewer pipes being narrow get choked easily. The committee is in no position to find a permanent solution to our problems. The existing situation is simply tormenting. It has been hundreds of times that we go to the council asking for evacuating the sewer water, which is temporarily done but the similar deplorable conditions are restored in no time,” rued another resident. Executive Officer Surinder Kumar when contacted said, “The garbage in the streets is generally lifted once or even twice in a day. If any part is left neglected, we can write to A to Z Company, who may not be taking their work seriously. In future when the door-to-door lifting shall begin, the problem will be resolved automatically.” Official speak

Self-employment raises standard of living: PSSSB chief
Mandi
Ahmedgarh, October 12 While addressing a gathering of small and marginal traders, during the annual function organised by Moon Tea Producing Company at Jandali village near here, Umaidpuri said the SAD-BJP had brought unprecedented development for lower strata of society, including scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, backward classes and economically weaker sections. Recounting special schemes launched by the government for weaker sections, Umaidpuri claimed that thousands of families had upgraded their standard of living through self employment. Exhorting rural youths to seek their future in self employment instead of running after petty jobs, Umaidpuri said gap between number of government jobs and unemployed youths could not be narrowed till vocationally trained youths established their own units for earning livelihood. Citing examples of developed group of countries Umaidpuri argued that the United States of America, one of the most advanced nations was spending only six per cent share of its budget on salary and wages of government employees whereas in our case more than 60 per cent was spent on establishment charges. Substantiating his claim with examples from corporate and business world, Umaidapuri argued that large number top ranking personalities had started their career from self employment. Umaidpuri said one should not feel ashamed in undertaking small business as no profession or business was small or large. “We must take lessons from life history of our Prime Minister Narinder Modi who once owned a tea vend,” said Umaidpuri. Elaborating self employment schemes of the government, Umaidpuri said special teams of professional and experts had been constituted in each department with intent to impart free training to young entrepreneurs. Besides arranging loans from nationalised and cooperative banks on liberalised terms, the experts educate entrepreneurs about subsidies and other facilities.

Admn’s ‘pick-and-choose’ policy angers politicians
Our Correspondent
Malerkotla/Mandi Ahmedgarh, October 12 The nub of the complaints is that the delimitation is being customised in such a way by the authorities concerned that it suited only certain leaders of the SAD-BJP combine. Leaders of parties in the Opposition have also objected to the constitution of boards for implementation of the delimitation process towards its conclusion. It is learnt that guidelines have not been followed while preparing draft plans. Office-bearers and activists of various organisations led by SAD general council member Kewal Jindal alleged that the authorities had ignored guidelines and basic principals of continuity, proximity and population strength while preparing proposed maps for new wards. Percentage of voters community wise has also been ignored while reserving wards for certain categories, thus making certain genuine social workers ineligible to contest the civic body elections. Jindal cited some examples wherein criterion of minimum population for delimiting the ward was not adhered to and residents paying house tax were not included in the civic body wards. Jindal urged the higher authorities to probe the sequence of events leading to preparation of maps without considering rules and regulation of the delimitation Act. Perusal of records revealed that at least two members of the committee owing allegiance to party in regime had lodged their objections to the proposed maps presented in the meeting chaired by Ashok Kumar Sikka, Deputy Director, Urban local Bodies, Patiala. Abdul Satar has demanded review of certain wards due to inadequate population strength, non-inclusion of old wards in map, lack of continuity in proposed wards and anticlockwise direction of wards. Rajnish Kumar pointed out that contrary to the guidelines, some wards lacked geographical features and residents paying house tax had been left out of the proposed wards. Interestingly, the population in proposed map has been shown much less that actual population
of Malerkotla.

Practise what you preach
The city traffic police has issued strict instructions against the widespread practice of seating one or two passengers on both sides of the driver’s seat on the three-wheelers plying in the mega city to check the alarming rate of road accidents. For some time, the drivers violating the orders were also challaned and hefty fines were imposed upon them. However, one comes across the policemen, and even the traffic cops sitting alongside the driver of three-wheelers on the city roads which send a wrong signal that those donning ‘khaki’ or uniform of traffic cops are above the law. If the police force will continue to flout traffic rules like this, who will enforce the rules on others is the big question. Karva Chauth detailing
on WhatsApp
Karva Chauth was all fun for the ladies and the fun was doubled for those who were sharing details about the occasion on WhatsApp messenger. Friends group on the social app were busy throughout the day detailing each other about the dress and jewellery details. Friends were busy chatting and clicking pictures for the group. “This year, Karva Chauth was fun and it seems I was celebrating the day along with my friends. I loved each and every moment of the day,” said Ritu, a city resident. Everything for husband!
Karva Chauth was celebrated with religious fervour by unmarried/married women in the city. As women had to keep the fast till they saw moon, husbands were seen roaming in streets and roads to find if moon had appeared or not as it was becoming difficult for many to remain empty stomach for more than 12 hours. A husband was heard saying, “She is hungry for me since morning. I should see that moon is there so that she gets to eat something.” Meanwhile, the most interesting thing was circulation of funny messages/texts on WhatsApp. And interestingly, both men and women enjoyed such pictures and texts in lighter vein which showed that it was just one day in a year when men were worshipped by their better-halves, else all 364 days it was vice-versa. Cleanliness drive a publicity stunt?
During the recently started cleanliness drive by the government of India, people from different walks of life pitched in. Some NGOs, government departments and private organisations also showed their enthusiasm for a few days. But things remained unchanged after some days. One can come across littered garbage here and there and on public places as well. There is hardly anyone who is bothered about maintaining the cleanliness. Commenting on this, a senior citizen said, “All has been done just for publicity. I wish everyone accepts it as its own responsibility.” Afterwards he opened polythene and picked up some used polythene from a roadside and went away.

Samrala Civil Hospital cries for attention
Samrala, October 12 The hospital authorities are paying no attention towards cleaning of the premises. The bad condition of the hospital may be judged from the fact that a doctor who was on emergency duty a few days ago was bitten by a snake when he was coming towards hospital from his residence on the premises. Due to the snake bite the doctor concerned was given injections and could be saved after treatment for some days. Reportedly, the condition of bathrooms is also worse.

Deform cigarettes,
and not joints
Shivani Bhakoo Tribune News Service
Ludhiana, October 12 It can lead to substantial loss of functioning and mobility if not treated adequately and timely. The disease can progress rapidly, causing swelling and damage to the joints. Any joint may be affected, but it is commonly the hands, feet and wrists. It can affect the whole body and internal organs such as lungs, heart, skin, nerves and eyes. Although the exact cause of the RA is unknown, some possible causes are infections, viruses, hormones, diet, smoking and possibly injury. Smoking is undoubtedly an important factor in causing the RA. Although rheumatoid arthritis has a genetic component, the possibility of passing the disease on to a child is extremely small. The good news is that the prognosis today, if diagnosed and treated early, is significantly better than it was 20-30 years ago and many people have a much better quality of life in spite of having the RA. The RA is a lot more common than leukaemia, cancers and multiple sclerosis. However, awareness of its severity tends to be restricted to those who are directly affected or their relatives.

Looking at remarriage from a different perspective
Ludhiana, October 12 Unlike their solemn TV avatars in the social drama Balika Vadhu, the two play a young, urban married couple in the play, which in fact will be a refreshing change for the audience. Ironically, like their TV soap, the play too toys with the idea of divorce, remarriage and blind beliefs, albeit in a contrastingly comical way. “The play carries a strong social message, in a light-hearted manner. The play is also an attack on self-proclaimed Godmen and how even educated persons fall prey to them,” said Soni. “The play is a comic play about an urban married couple that brings home the message that a wife is a unique person in the world,” added Bansal. For Anup, this is his first commercial play whereas Smita is playing a comic character after quite a while. Directed by Prasad Khandekar and written and produced by Sanjay Jha, the play promises a lot of humour and a wonderful social message.

Chaos all the way
It seems that it is raining chaos in the city. Begging, congestion and encroachments have been a bane of the industrial hub. The problems are soaring as the civic authorities are snoring. One can see garbage strewn at every nook and cranny. Accumulation of sewage, waste disposal in the open, flooding, non-functional air compressors at fuel stations, polluting autos and their pathetic road discipline, potholed roads, glaring high-beam lights, poor maintenance of parks and public toilets, dangling old hoardings, filth at the bus stand and the railway station are some of the issues that need to be addressed at the earliest. Political interference, extremely weak and irregular enforcement have only aggravated the problems. The authorities should realise their responsibility and do the needful. Harpreet Singh, Ludhiana Say no to crackers
Diwali is no longer celebrated as the "Festival of Lights". Despite the fact that crackers cause noise pollution, these are sold like hotcakes. We all should pledge to celebrate a green
Diwali. We should put in efforts to light up the dark. Navneet Arora, Ludhiana Readers can email their views to ludhiana.feedback@gmail.com
