Yet another passport office coming up New Delhi, December 26 The Delhi Police Commissioner, Mr R S Gupta, is understood to have sanctioned the new centre as the existing centres are swamped with passport applications from the North-West and West districts. “The new centre will come up in the 9th and 10th Battalion situated in Pitampura in February next year as it is presently undergoing structural changes to suit the needs of a passport centre,” said an official. The Pitampura centre will be the fourth passport centre in the national Capital. The decision was taken by the Delhi Police in tandem with the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) as more than 50 per cent of the passport applications received in the existing centres during the last four months were from Narela, Bawana, Rohini and its adjoining areas. Even the existing centres, which were receiving as many as 15,000 passport applications every month, have been quick in making police verifications, responding to queries and issuing passports in the stipulated time. “We have also started a novel method of sending self-addressed feedback envelopes to 10 per cent of the applicants picked randomly to get their response. In fact, we have received mostly positive response from them regarding the behaviour of verification officers and police staff at the centres,” added the official. “Once we received a complaint from a woman applicant that the verification officer had asked for bribe and spoke in a rude manner. The concerned officer was suspended immediately and a Departmental Enquiry is pending against him.” According to the official, the passport centres will soon boast of CCTVs; this will minimize corruption and harassment by lower-level staff and make the department more people-friendly. “The applicants are also happy that they are no longer pestered by touts. A sub-inspector has been assigned the task of looking after the needs of the applicants. Besides, the officers have been trained and advised to be more sensitive to the needs of women and children.” |

united in death New Delhi, December 26 Both Mohammad and Sunita were already married and had families in Mukherjee Nagar and Azadpur, respectively. They had developed an illicit relationship and run away from their homes. The duo had been staying together in a rented accommodation in Ashok Nagar for the last one month. While Mohammad, a contractor, was married to one Raiza and has six children, Sunita was married to one Suresh, a labourer, and has two children. Sunita had brought her children to stay with Mohammad. The police said that last evening Sunita had gone to her house in Azadpur and left the children with her husband. She then came back to Ashok Nagar. Their suicide was discovered this afternoon when Sunita’s children had brought their father to the house, where the couple had been staying for the last one month. Failing to get a response after several knocks at the door, Suresh peeped through a window and found the couple hanging from a ceiling fan with a rope. Interestingly, both were hanging from a single rope. The police said that no suicide note was found. The bodies have been sent to the GTB Hospital for a post-mortem examination. The police have registered a case of suicide and are investigating the case. In another incident, a 35-year-old woman committed suicide in Sultanpuri this afternoon because of acute poverty.

Women of DLF City leading Gurgaon initiative Gurgaon, December 26 The women of DLF City are leading the initiative. According to Dr Amita Singh, an Associate Professor of Jawaharlal Nehru University, who is a member of the forum, the organisation was acting as facilitator between the district administration and the public for expeditious development of Gurgaon city. She was satisfied with the overall response of the administration to their initiatives. Mrs Amina Shervani, a founding member of the forum, said that in the past few months the organisation had taken up a number of issues with the administration, including removal of encroachments, stopping illegal constructions, setting up safety features at crossings, better management of vehicular movement and adequate provision of electricity in Gurgaon city. The forum expressed concern over the rise in encroachments. It also criticised the law enforcement agencies for winking at the illegal constructions. It pointed out that the administration must come hard on the commercial sites in residential areas. The forum alleged that in DLF City the office-bearers of various Residents’ Welfare Associations had been running commercial outfits in residential pockets in connivance with the DLF management. The members of the forum are happy that the administration has roped in private firms for beautification of the roundabouts and crossings. They have also welcomed the decision to make the Gurgaon-Mehrauli road one-way. The forum has also taken up with the administration the allocation of about five acres of land for keeping stray cattle. However, the forum is sore over the power situation, especially in DLF City. The members said that it was strange that both the DLF management and the electricity department were passing the buck. Besides, the forum has also taken up with the administration the setting up of `Peoples’ Committees’ to keep a tab on various development projects. The forum has also been working for juvenile justice and against female foeticide. The members, however, have one grudge. They allege that the office-bearers of various Residents Welfare Associations in DLF City, especially the DLF Qutab Enclave Residents Welfare Association, have been working against the forum. |

Faridabad welfare schemes bogged down Faridabad, December 26 The Financial Commissioner and Supervising Secretary of the district, Mr N Bala Bhaskar, recently held a meeting of the district officials here to discuss the progress of various schemes and issued directions to the authorities to speed up the work on the pending projects. While the work of repairing the roads, damaged in the rainy season this year, has been unsatisfactory, the Haryana Urban Development Authority (Huda) has been asked to adopt at least six badly damaged roads in the Municipal Corporation, Faridabad (MCF) area. The MCF has so far failed to carry out the repair due to paucity of funds. The civic body and its corporators have appealed to the state government to release a special grant to tackle the problem. The civic body is awaiting the receipt of its share in the Local Area Development Tax (LADT) collected by other departments. The work of construction of mini secretariat for the offices of district administration is in progress at Sector-12 here. The authorities have now claimed that the secretariat’s building will be built by April next year, and will cost about Rs 12 crore. The work of developing Transport Nagar in Sector-58 on the outskirts of Ballabgarh town is reported to be behind schedule. The authorities now claimed that 173 plots out of 323 had been developed. However, the project of shifting the dairies out of the municipal limits had been hanging fire. The authorities have also announced a scheme to rehabilitate some jhuggi dwellers. More than 20,000 jhuggis and kutcha houses have been razed in a demolition drive in the past three years to free the government land from encroachments. |

MLA submits proposal to Chautala Sonepat, December 26 It has been highlighted in the proposal that this would not only beautify the ancient town and attract tourists, but also would put a check on the illegal encroachments of the land by unscrupulous elements. The area, which has converted into a large pond, is located on the Panipat-Gohana-Rohtak National Highway. Though the area is not so deep, but it remains waterlogged during winter and the migratory birds also take shelters in the pond during winter season. The entire area belonged to the government and its best possible use can be developed into a lake, the proposal suggests. According to Mr Saini, the CM has been very liberal in granting various development works for the town and area and this proposal is also likely to get favourable response from the CM. |

The DCDRF Gurgaon decided on an alternative plot with 18 per cent interest on the deposited money till its possession. Till 2000, the complainant wrote a number of letters both to HUDA Gurgaon and the DCDRF Gurgaon. However, HUDA would not give possession without greasing the palms of officials, similarly DCDRF would not execute the order. Ultimately the complainant addressed the whole case to the Chief Secretary Haryana who intervened and payment of interest till 1998 was released in 2000. The matter was then taken up with the DCDRF Gurgaon who came up with the plea that old file had been lost. Corruption is rampant in executive departments like HUDA, but now even quasi-judicial institutions are not lagging behind. MRS RAJ

Copying a curse
in exams A student copies in exam to pass or get good marks. He copies as he does not want to work hard. This way, he only spoils his future. A student can make his life better if he learns to work hard and will only mar his life if he depends on the crutches of copying. Students will have to change their thinking and mindset regarding copying in examination. Sanctity of examinations should be maintained at all costs. Students should not worry about a failure or two. Failures are the pillars of success. If a student works hard from the very beginning and maintains the pace, he would surely pass with flying colours. It is the hard work that pays in the long run, not copying. Copying is a curse. A teacher plays a great role in conducting examinations. He can stem the rot of copying by his grit and determination. A good teacher wants that his students should be successful in life. Keeping this idea in mind, he tries to teach his students sincerely and diligently. He tries to inculcate good habits and encourage them to do hard work in life. A good teacher becomes a role model of his students. The education board and the university authorities should take such measures which may discourage students from adopting unfair means and encourage teachers to discharge their exam-duty honestly, efficiently and fearlessly. It is the teacher who can with the cooperation of parents/guardians and education board authorities put a stop to the menace of copying. KARAN SINGH BAWWA,
Rewari Mini secretariat needed in Panipat It has been published more than once in the esteemed columns of The Tribune that a mini secretariat in Panipat, opposite Tehsil Office on G T Road, will come up very soon, but nothing has happened so far. The government of Haryana has also informed the public in the press that dispute with the military authorities has since been settled, land acquired and possession taken If this is correct, then what is the reason for delay in the construction of the secretariat. It may be mentioned that the Government of Haryana is paying a huge amount in the shape of rent to the private building owners for various government offices functioning from such buildings. Moreover, most of the government offices in rented buildings are located across the GT Road in Model Town. Industrial Area and other localities are on this side of the city whereas Tehsil Office, State Bank of India, Income Tax office etc are functioning on GT Road. All this creates a lot of difficulties to the general public. It would be proper if the Government of Haryana orders the construction of the mini secretariat in Panipat without delay to save a lot of revenue spent on rents. A.
N. BHANDULA, Panipat Vulgar portrayal of women It is a matter of great satisfaction that Information and Broadcasting Minister Ravi Shanker Prasad is seriously considering censoring of music videos and film promos as nudity has crossed all limitations. See any album on Star TV or any other channels, models flaunt their vital statistics in such a vulgar manner. This has been revealed in the survey conducted in Delhi on the projection of women in media. People have agreed that there was a need to improve the portrayal of women in the media. I fail to understand why women/models agree to unreasonable/objectionable demands of directors of concerned shows. After all, they have duties and responsibilities towards society to maintain decorum. One can be shown attractive even in full dresses. SUBHASH C TANEJA,
