Nursing students’ demands accepted
Rajpura, January 7 In the evening, the matter was settled when Akali leader Prof Prem Singh Chandumajra’s supporters told agitating students that their demands had been accepted. They were assured of being given a communiqué from the Chief Minister’s office. Later in the evening, the students lifted their dharna. Students were told that the government had accepted their demand to give Rs 4,000 as stipend during the six months of internship. The students will meet the Chief Minister in Chandigarh tomorrow evening in this regard. The students, from nursing colleges in Patiala, Faridkot and Amritsar, had also demanded recognition to their colleges by the state government. High drama unfolded when Prof Chandumajra, SAD candidate for Lok Sabha elections from Patiala seat, reached the scene to pacify agitating students around 1.30 pm. For around three hours, he tried to act as mediator between students and the government. However, protesting students shouted back at the leader. Starting from Rs 1,000, Chandumajra finally agreed that the government would give Rs 3,500 as stipend to students. However, before the matter could be resolved, Patiala MP Preneet Kaur arrived at the scene. Instead of solving the issue, the leaders started arguing with each other. Things turned ugly when supporters of the SAD and the Congress hurled allegations and counter-allegations at one another. The situation normalised only after Preneet Kaur left the scene. The police remained busy threatening students with a lathi-charge and water cannons. It also resorted to a mild use of force to disperse students using water cannons, which only intensified the rage amongst protesters. At this, the police stopped the use of force. Two girls fell unconscious, while another got injured during the scuffle with the police. Some protesters complained of fatigue and burning sensation in eyes due to sleep depravation as they had been on protest for over 36 hours. Last night, a student, Davinder Kaur, was injured during a scuffle with the police. The police had allegedly tried to snatch away quilts given to the agitating students by nearby villagers.

36-hr-long blockade, a nightmare for commuters
The 36-hour-long blockade of Delhi-Amritsar national highway was like a nightmare for the commuters, shopkeepers and truckers.
Not only the commuters remained stranded, others too had to walk for several kilometres to reach their destination. The traffic remained disrupted on Ambala, Patiala, Sirhind and Zirakpur roads with serpentine queues of vehicles. Many people took the Banur road in order to circumvent the problematic area, Gagan Chowk, and reach Rajpura. Few minor incidents were also reported on the stretch. The truckers carrying perishable items got stuck up on Sirhind, Patiala, Banur and on the Ambala highway. They alleged cops of unnecessarily harassing them and cursed protesting students for causing losses worth lakhs by damaging fruits and vegetables loaded in trucks. The commuters were also seen entering in heated arguments with the police. “ The situation went out of control, near Banur, when some cops abused and tried to thrash us,” said Harmeet Singh, a resident of Jalandhar. Senior police officials, including Rajpura SHO, said the police came from nearby districts and they were unaware of any such behaviour of the police. Meanwhile, long queues were witnessed till late evexning in Rajpura, Sirhind, Banur and other adjoining areas due to the blockade by nursing students. |

Fake Encounter Case
Patiala, January 7 On December 8, another accused, DSP Ram Singh, posted at PAP, Jalandhar, had surrendered in the court of Additional Session Judge Sukhwinder Kaur. He was accompanied by a team of doctors during his surrender in the court as he was suffering from a heart ailment. The CBI had filed a case in 1997 against 25 policemen for their alleged involvement in a fake encounter and Ram Singh was one of them. The case was registered by the CBI under Sections 302, 364 and 120B, IPC, against the accused. It may be recalled that a bomb blast had occurred in Jalandhar a few years ago and one of the accused, Vijay Pal Singh, a terrorist who was in the custody of the Delhi police, had named three policemen — Baljit Singh, Rajwinder Singh and Mukhtiar Singh — in the incident. The following day, Baljit Singh was allegedly killed while the whereabouts of the other two were not known yet. Joga Singh, father of Baljit Singh, later filed a writ petition in the Punjab and Haryana High Court following which the court directed the CBI to inquire into the incident. The next date of hearing in the case is January 16. Meanwhile in another case, CDs pertaining to SAD (A) leader Simranjit Singh Mann’s fiery speeches were produced in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate. A case had been registered against the SAD leader at the Kotwali police station on December 4, 2007. The next hearing in the case will be on January 27. Mann’s counsel said the court found no objectionable material in the CD. |

Suspension of Sentence
Chandigarh, January 7 A Division Bench of the high court is also of the opinion the period spent by a convict behind bars as an undertrial should to be added to the post-conviction period, while calculating the minimum period. It has called for reconsideration by a larger Bench the two judgments on the aspect. In a ruling, the Bench of Justice KS Garewal and Justice Jitendra Chauhan have asserted: “We feel that in cases where accused spend long time in custody as undertrials, it would be unfair to require them to again spend certain fixed period post conviction before the sentence can be suspended”. In a detailed seven-page order, the Bench ruled: As regards the benefit given to appellants of suspension of sentence on account of long period spent in custody, this court is consistently following the judgments in Dharam Pal versus State of Haryana and Daler Singh versus State of Punjab. “However, both in Dharam Pal and Daler Singh’s cases, the appellants are required to complete a certain minimum period post conviction before sentence can be suspended. In Dharam Pal’s case, the appellant is required to complete three years post conviction and total period of five years in custody. “In Daler Singh’s case, the appellant is required to complete period varying from 12 to 15 months post conviction, and total sentence varying from two to six years…. “Under Section 428 CrPC, the period of detention undergone by the accused is set off against the sentence of imprisonment. Therefore, we feel that the undertrial period should be added to the post conviction period, and an appellant who has completed five years in all should be entitled to suspension of sentence automatically”. The Bench also took note of the fact that “there may be many cases where accused languish in prison as undertrials and are deprived of suspension of sentence because their conviction is comparatively recent. “When the under-trial period is also counted towards sentence, it should not make any difference if the appellant has or has not done three years after conviction. We are of the view that on the aspect, the Division Bench judgments in Dharam Pal and Daler Singh cases require to be reconsidered”. The Bench has referred the matter to the Full Bench.

Consumer Forum
Chandigarh, January 7 The petitioner, Prof Arun K Lall, had got enrolled for an accidental insurance, issued by the insurance company on December 13, 2007, with the assurance that he could discontinue it later after reviewing the policy documents without any financial implication. Under the scheme, Rs 10 per month was to be deducted for first two months, and later, for continuation, Rs 329 per month were to be charged as premium from HSBC credit card account after confirmation for the continuation. The complainant, through an e-mail on March 3, 2008, confirmed that he was not interested in the policy, which was confirmed by the insurance company on March 5, 2008. Later on, the company again contacted the complainant for the review of another health plan, and only after the repeated assurance from the top officials of the company, he permitted HSBC to go ahead for crediting the premium, and all this happened through tele-conferencing with the complainant. However, on March 3, 2008, the complainant, through e-mail, confirmed that he was not interested in the policy and, therefore, premium should not be debited. According to the complainant, for the insurance policy, a premium of Rs 329 per month has still been debited to his credit card, and another, against policy premium of Rs 13,107, was discontinued from March 19, 2008, against the request made on March 5, 2008. However, a cheque of Rs 9,830 was received on May 1, 2008, after deducting 25 per cent of the premium money of Rs 34,356 was submitted against one of the insurance policy that was discontinued from February 28, 2008, for which cancellation request was made on March 18, 2008, and Rs 34,257 were credited to HSBC on May 20, 2008, after deducting Rs 99. The insurance company admitted that the complainant took the three insurance policies, which were later on, cancelled, and the premium amount was refunded as per terms and conditions of the policy, and the amounts had been credited to the complainant’s credit card. The company stated that the same was informed to the complainant through a letter dated September 18, 2008, and with the said letter, the complainant also offered to arrange for reversal of the interest and late-payment charges, levied by the bank. However, the complainant was required to pay Rs 9,830 that was not deposited
by him. The forum held: “The insurance company has not produced any document to prove if any such instructions had been given by the complainant to them. In its absence, it was an unfair trade policy adopted by the insurance company to debit the amount to his credit card where the non-payment entails a higher rate of interest and late payment charges, besides any other penalty which may be imposed by the bank.”

Two caught stealing BSNL cables
Chandigarh, January 7 BSNL officials alleged that despite several incidents of the underground cable thefts in the area during the past week, the police has miserably failed to curb such incidents. The officials suspect the handiwork of some organised gang, as reports of thefts of cables are coming from Mohali and Panchkula also. The suspects have been identified as Rohit Kumar, a resident of Sector-51 and Raj Lohar of Colony Number 5. A case has been registered against the suspects. Narrating the sequence of events leading to the arrest of the suspects, BSNL executive engineer NK Bedi told TNS that after rising incidents of thefts the employees decided to act on their own and deployed staff at various places where the work of laying underground cables were in progress. Last night while workers of BSNL contractor, Surinder Kumar, were laying cables in Sector-51 they spotted three persons near the distiches dug for laying cables. After sometime these men went to a nearby forest area and lit a bonfire. At this, the workers got suspicious that the men were burning cable for removing the plastic coating for procuring the metal. They informed their contractor who in turn called Bedi. They managed to catch one of the suspects while the police later caught his accomplice. Their third accomplice is absconding. The employees alleged that the suspects had brought a tractor-trolley for pulling the underground cables. According to Bedi, thieves had, stolen cables catering to 1,200 connections from near a drain in Sector-5, on January 2. This had rendered 500 connections in the area "dead". The BSNL lodged a complaint with the police and a case was registered in this regard. On January 4 they began the work of laying new cables in the area and dug up earth along the drain. During the night of January 5, when the work was in progress, the thieves decamped with 40 metres of new cables bring laid there. The BSNL employees enquired from the liquor vend employees and other people of the area and learnt that a few persons were seen in the area on the tractor-trolley.

Major scam involving GPA uncovered
Mohali, January 7 In what appears to be a well-organised nexus between certain officials and middlemen, the attorneys were registered by the sub-registrar’s office without verifying the identity of witnesses and documents of local address furnished by the applicants. Though the responsibility of registering the GPA lies with the sub-registrar, most of the attorneys registered pertain to direct or indirect sale of Chandigarh properties. Registration of certain category of attorneys of properties is banned in
Chandigarh. Since the attorney involved property transactions, running into several lakhs, evasion of fee of the Chandigarh administration was done. Due to high rates of plotted houses or land, a property generally changes several hands on the basis of power of attorney or sub-power of attorney. In each transaction, government loses several lakhs in form of stamp duty. Sources did not rule out GPAs being executed for “benami” and unauthorised property transactions undertaken by
speculators. A scrutiny of the record reveals that while registering the attorneys, different applicants have furnished the same addresses and the anomaly does not catch the attention of the officials concerned. For instance, H No. 831, Phase 4, has been mentioned as the local address in 10 different attorneys. Similarly, H No. 783, Phase 4, has been mentioned as local address in at least 14 different GPAs. This means 14 different persons gave the Phase 4 house as their local address. Also, H No. 36, Phase 9, finds mention as local address a number of times. Acting on reports that property buyers were furnishing false address to get their GPA registered, the district administration has now made it mandatory for applicants to produce documents in support of their residence proof. The deputy commissioner (registry), Mohali, has categorically told sub-registrars at Mohali, Kharar, Dera Bassi and Majri to see the documents of residence proof before registering a power of
attorney.

Ashbeer slips to overall third spot
Chandigarh, January 7 The 15-year-old Kapurthala lad could muster a four over 74 to occupy the third slot, one stroke behind Rashid Khan. Ajeet Kumar was the only other player to card an under par round. Despite a poor round, Ashbeer maintained his lead in the under-15 category with a comfortable cushion of eight strokes over his nearest rivals, Sayed Saqib Ahmed and Ankur Chadha. Tarundeep S Chadha of Chandigarh was placed fourth at 151. But, all is not lost for the Kapurthala boy as he would be keen to get a win in the overall category after having come close in his last few attempts. Honey Baisoya opened up a five-stroke lead in Category C (under-12) after Viraj Madappa, who was tied for the lead after the completion of the first round in this group, struggled to a seven over 77 to fall behind. Patiala’s Shubhankar Sharma was placed third at 151. The players in the under-10 group started their tournament today, and the leaderboard in this category wore an interesting look with a three-way tie for the lead. Deepak Sharma, Prakhar Awasa and Piyush Sangwan shot a round of one over 71 to take top honours. With two rounds left and the next best player eight strokes behind, the winner in Category D is likely to emerge from one of these three. Chikka, who started from the 10th, got off to a promising start with a birdie on his first hole. He failed to find his rhythm after that and a double bogey on the 16th was followed by a bogey on the 17th, resulting in him making the turn at two over par. He steadied his game and sank a hat-trick of birdie putts ont he third, fourth and fifth to complete the front-nine with a blemish free three under 31, which allowed him to finish one under par for the round. The top three players, Chikka, Rashid and Ashbeer, are separated by just two strokes and it promises to be a gripping contest in the next two rounds with India’s most talented golfers trying to outdo each other to assert their supremacy as the best junior player in the country. Scores: Overall (Category A and B): 139 Chikkarangappa (70-69); 140 Rashid Khan (68-72); 141 Ashbeer Singh Saini (67-74); 144 Ajeet Kumar (75-69); 146 Khalin H. Joshi (72-74).

Handball
Chandigarh, January 7 Following The Tribune’s report about the alleged inclusion of “not so deserving” candidates in the handball camp, the administration had formed a three-member selection committee and issued directives to ensure that the selection was fair. However, yesterday again fingers were raised at the inclusion of the son of SAI basketball coach who allegedly is a basketball player and not a handball player. “I have been playing since three years and have an excellent record. I was part of the team that won a silver medal last year, but I was not taken in the team while they took Manish who is the son of an SAI coach,” alleged a player in a written representation to The Tribune. KS Bharti, assistant sports director (education) and a member of the selection committee,
rubbished the claims and he said the complainant had also been selected. “We have selected this boy and if he feels left out because he was not among the first seven, then he should know that which seven will play first is decided by the coach most of the times on the field itself. The other boy was a basketball player, but had participated in handball tournaments,” he said. A similar controversy had brewed during the skating selections, as a parent had protested against the inclusion of a boy in the team who had not been in the camp. However, Bharti claimed that it was in accordance with rules and blamed the parent for creating issues unnecessarily. Rules say if any player has not been in a camp, but excels and has a
good record, he could be included. “The boy had won two gold medals in inter-school while their own son was not even present at the trials as according to them, he was busy attending tuitions,” he explained. Sources revealed that this parent was Balwinder Singh, the gunman of Krishan Mohan, home secretary, Haryana. |
