Attack on naib tehsildar
Ludhiana, June 16 Advocate Naginder Singh, his brother and six others were booked under Sections 353, 186, 506, 341, 148 and 149 of the IPC for obstructing Naib Tehsildar, Jagsir Singh from performing duty, threatening him and even detaining him illegally on June 9. The case has been registered following a complaint lodged against the accused by Jagsir Singh with Deputy Commissioner, Vikas Garg, who forwarded it to SSP for further action. Following registration of the case, the lawyers staged a dharna against the administration outside the Deputy Commissioner’s office today. The lawyers led by Naginder himself raised slogans against the authorities and said he was falsely booked while he had just asked the Naib Tehsildar to work smoothly. Carrying banners stating that tehsildars are corrupt and should be suspended, the lawyers said who so ever tried to raise voice against their functioning, was silenced by registering a case against him. The lawyers said they would intensify their agitation if the case were not withdrawn. They said they would not take the bully behaviour of the revenue officials lying down. The revenue officials were angry that the lawyers misbehaved with them. Jagsir Singh had alleged that he was attacked and threatened by the lawyer on June 9. He alleged his brother had wanted him to jump the queue and when he failed to do so, he was threatened and detained illegally. He went on to say that the lawyer along with others hurled abused him following which he had to leave the office midway. Following the incident, the sub registrars had suspended work in the office for a day. They wrote to the deputy commissioner asking for personal security. Next day they came with their private security guards to their offices stating they were scared of the treatment given to their colleague.

Three minors raped within fortnight
Ludhiana, June 16 Instead of extending a helping hand to the victims’ family, residents as well as the police tried to affect a compromise or shrug off the matter. What has made this act more heinous was the fact that in two incidents, the mothers of the victims were widows, who work as maidservants to keep the kitchen fire burning. The accused took full advantage of venerable situation of the women and tried to pressurise the girl’s mother and offered money to shrug off the case. The first incident took place in Janakpuri, where a middle-aged man, who was learnt to be a father of seven children, allegedly raped a six -month- old girl. The man managed to escape as the owner of the quarters pressurised the victim’s family to settle the matter. For the victim’s family, the subsequent development in the case was even more humiliating. Victim’s father, who works in a factory, alleged that he was subjected to all kind of embarrassments. Now, he is planning to leave as it has become virtually impossible for the family to stay in the city. “My four-year- old daughter complains of pain. Once she asked me what actually the man was trying to do with her, the query left me numbed. I pray that she forgets about the incident soon as this episode would haunt her when she will become young,” said the victim’s mother, who was allegedly raped by Guldeep Singh on June 7 in Joshi Nagar street No- 1. The incident took place when she was out at work. “I work at several houses as maid servant for the sake of my children. Instead of appreciating my dedication for my children, such people took advantage of my vulnerability. The third incident took place in Moti Bag Colony in Phullanwal three days ago. According to the family, the accused Upinder Kumar, who owns the quarters not only committed the rape but also offered Rs 5,000 to shrug off the matter. On the other hand the families of the accused have alleged that the victims’ family have concocted stories and intentionally levelled serious charges. They further alleged that as one has to face major harassment, people find such blames handy to settle score with their rivals. The accused are absconding and police is waiting for the medical repots to ascertain the truth behind these cases. |

MC officials in retaliation mood
Ludhiana, June 16 The things are going to turn worse as the files would open “Pandora’s box” and politicians along with senior functionaries of the corporation would come under scanner. Terming the present muteness and absence of the officials as silence before the storm, the senior functionaries of the corporation said, “The matter is going to become more intense in the coming days as many documents are missing from the civic body. Some of them are even lying in the houses of politicians and contractors who were hand-in-gloves for various projects.” According to sources, “Many payments related to various projects, including an indoor stadium, Ganda Nullah, JNNURM projects have been made by the municipal corporation without proper documentation and if the files are submitted, everybody present from top to bottom would be unraveled.” “It’s not easy to prepare data for the past five years as the files are with different departments of the civic body and some people with the projects have either been transferred or retired,” said an official on condition of anonymity. They added that it may take about three months and even than it’s not sure that the data prepared would be error-free. Junior officials of the corporation said, “senior ranks, including XEN, SE and the zonal commissioners, are a bigger culprit, but it’s the junior who are going to become an escape goat this time. Even when it comes to rolling of head, we are the victims.” They added they wouldn’t let things go easily this time. The Ganda Nullah, which is a major issue these days for the MLAs, has already landed two senior functionaries in a soup with their absence tomorrow. Even the meeting scheduled for Wednesday won’t yield much as doubts about presence of these officials are already being raised. |

Women in Men’s World — II
Ludhiana, June 16 Today, they are trying to give farming a new definition. How women (and men) experience this increasing feminization of agriculture, especially in the current context of increasing commercialization of agriculture, is an important question. It’s evident that the feminization of agriculture has increased in the past decade. Outstanding in their fields women farmers have dramatized the pioneering spirit, creativity and courage that animates various farming methods where women are leading the way. Gurdev Kaur from Ayali Khurd near Ludhiana took up dairy farming, bee keeping and is also engaged in the production and marketing of pickles, honey and jaggery. She has set an example for other women of her village who have also started following her league. She gives tips to other women, as she is the member of the PAU Kisan Club. “Sometimes farm experts are busy and cannot satisfy the queries of the farm women so they come to me and I solve their problems,” she adds. Her life changed after she became the member of the club in 1995. She first started dairy farming in 1992 and then bee keeping in 1995 and today also markets her hand made pickles and jaggery. In addition to this she is also bottling her honey to the local markets. Gurdev Kaur also comes to the PAU every week with her specialty-saron da saag, which can be purchased, both in the cooked or raw form. “I wanted to put my life into some constructive mode and thought of taking up agriculture as it is the chief profession here. Things became simpler after I became the member of the club and got formal training. I was the first woman in my village to took up farming and after seeing me progressing in the fields many other women took farming and today are doing well,” she adds with a smile. Another farmer Bhupinder Kaur from Mansuran took up poultry farming about four years ago. She started with 25 hens and today owns a two-storied poultry farm. “It all started by chance. We already had some hens at our place and one day I jokingly said why not develop it into a poultry farm. “My family encouraged me and today I am earning huge bucks from my poultry business,” she quips. |
Bihari labourers asked to return home
Ludhiana, June 16 The Bihari labourers have been treated well and they have learnt the skills in Punjab and prospered, maintain the industrialists. The captains of the industry have appealed to Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal to intervene and take up the matter with Nitish Kumar at his personal level. Punjab has been facing severe shortage of labour in the industrial and farm sectors for the past one year. The farm sector faced the problem last year too at the time of paddy transplantation and wheat harvesting. This year again this problem is being faced since the paddy transplantation is in full swing, but labourers from Bihar and UP have not come in full strength. This has resulted in higher wages of the labour -- up to Rs 2,500 per acre. Earlier the wages used to be Rs 1,000 per acre for paddy transplantation. This year the farmers are offering them cell phone facility as well and good food to complete the paddy transplantation. Avtar Singh, general secretary, Chamber of Industrial and Commercial Undertakings, while commenting on the appeal issued by the Bihar Chief Minister, strongly condemned it and said that the Bihari migrants in Punjab had prospered and even set up their industrial units. He disclosed there was one Bihari who came as a labourer and now had 10 ‘trollas’ big sized goods carriers, which were attached to the inland container depot (dry port) at the focal point in Ludhiana. Similarly, Bihari labourers were engaged in the SAIL depot. Avtar Singh said the Bihari and UP workers working in the factories were being paid the wages according to the labour laws of the state and no discrimination was shown to them. There was already shortage of 50 per cent labour in the industry and the steps taken by Bihar Chief Minister would further aggravate the situation, said Avtar Singh. He maintained that Bihar could not provide permanent employment to them. The Bihari migrants had adjusted to the congenial working conditions in the factories, he asserted. PD Sharma, president, Apex Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Punjab, was of the view that Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal should take up the matter with his counterpart in Bihar and stop the exodus of Bihari migrants. The Punjabi employers had looked after the Bihari well and there was no regional crisis. Rather such a step would create feelings of regionalism and bad blood, he warned. Gian Chand Dhawan, a leading hosiery exporter said the industry was already faced with shortage of labour like tailors and men to work on flat machines. The tailoring jobs in the hosiery are done by the Biharis while other jobs like running the flat machines are performed by the UP migrants. The hosiery workers earn Rs 200 daily. The Bihari migrants have also perfected the art of masonry and they get Rs 200 to Rs 250 daily and the construction labourers earn Rs 150 daily. Bihari women work as domestic help and they earn from Rs 1,000 to Rs 3,000 per month. The economy of Punjab is solely dependent on the migrants.

Swine Flu: Health dept on high alert
However, the DHO added that there was no reason to panic before the “confirmation” through the prescribed tests. He referred to a similar panic call from a nearby village wherein a person had called up the civil surgeon’s office two days ago to get him examined for the swine flu. “We had asked him to immediately report to the civil hospital but the fellow didn’t turn up,” he added. Explaining the procedure, the DHO said, “The swab from the nose/throat are taken in cases of swine flu suspects and sent to the PGI and the National Institute of Communicable Diseases, New Delhi, through virus transport medium. “The samples will be sent in triple packing in vaccine carriers as the virus is highly infectitious and the report will be dispatched by the above institute within 24 hours following which the person will be given treatment.” District epidemiologist GP Mangla (district nodal officer for Swine Flu) said rural doctors in village dispensaries had been categorically told to keep movements of NRIs under surveillance.

Financial crisis: PAU VC asks govt for solution
Ludhiana, June 16 In a letter to the State Financial Commissioner (development), Dr Kang has informed the State government that the Confederation of Punjab Agricultural University Pensioners Association, Ludhiana, had filed a petition in the high court last year for the non-payment of their pension. The high court had set the deadline of March 31 for making up to date pension and giving arrears to the pensioners. The university has managed to pay the pension and arrears with the assistance received from the state government and the Punjab Development Board together with 10 per cent share. The Vice-Chancellor has further written that the state government has sanctioned 10 per cent dearness allowance/ dearness relief to the employee pensioners with effect from January 1, 2009. The PAU pensioners are also demanding the same. The liability on this account would be approximately Rs 20 lakh each month with effect from the said date. The university has no source for funds to meet this liability except Rs 10 crore under pension fund that are lying in a fixed deposit in the post office, which will mature in August. The current liability on account of pension is approximately Rs 4 crore per month of employees/ pensioners. Due the non-payment of the pension, the pensioners are likely to go to the court again, but the PAU will be helpless to meet the liability of their pensions. Dr Kang emphasised on the state government that the financial crisis was on the doorstep of the PAU, which could not be overcome without the help of the state government, and had suggested levy of additional cess at the rate of 0.5 per cent on the arrival of crop produce as recommended by the Johl committee. The revenue thus generated could be passed on to the PAU by making necessary amendments in rules. He has further suggested the reduction in the commission of commission agents to the extent of 0.5 per cent for passing on to the PAU or to provide for untied grant in aid to the PAU as per actual requirements to meet expenses on account of salary, pension and contingencies to meet the requirements of research, teaching and extension activities. The present system of sanction of a fixed annual grant is of Rs 100 crore.

Teachers attend orientation course
Doraha, June 16 Around 22 teachers of different colleges and universities from Punjab participated. Dr Surjit Pattar, former professor of Punjabi at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, who presented the valedictory address, highlighted the importance of language by explaining that “language binds all”. He focused that it is a connecting link between several generations. He stated that language, being an interesting phenomenon, has always remained a source of curiosity among various thinkers. He traced the origin of language, which began with vibrations that went through long refinement and paved way for words. He also expressed concern over the vanishing Punjabi words. “Language and culture must be saved by eminent writers, talented poets, committed artists and visionary scholars,” he asserted. Promoting the cause of Punjabi and its culture, he pointed out that the society must not replace the existing Punjabi words with English vocabulary because the language is developed by the society and not by linguistics. “Language becomes stagnant when people fail to crave for innovation and thus its decline begins,” Dr Surjit added. “We must respect our mother tongue to save our rich culture,” he further added. Dr HS Bhatia, director and the course co-ordinator informed that more than 35 resource persons shared their experience with the participants. The co-ordinator also advised the participants to make full use of the knowledge they acquired during the four-week course and generate the same among students and colleagues.
