Jazzing up evenings with dance, music
When the day is done and the evening slithers by, the dance floor at Jack Daniels (JD), Radisson Windsor Hotel, comes alive with jiving groups. It's a world removed from the humdrum life. It may be peopled by a privileged few, but it is their way to celebrate the evening with panache.
The harsh realities of life melt away as music crescendos its way to
throbbing hearts and thumping feet. "After a tiring day, you need
to take a break from your work. Simply going home and sleeping like a
log is not enough.
People’s Concern
Potholed roads bane of Urban Estate, Phase II
Urban Estate Phase II here, once known for better living conditions, is now a glaring example of neglect and apathy on the part of the Punjab Urban Planning and Development Authority (PUDA) officials.

Varied hues of uniformed life
Army life is Bharat darshan, say officers'
wives
Being an army officer's wife is an experience in itself. Be it the remotest area or the backwaters of civilization, these women have seen it all. They have had the privilege to travel the length and breadth of the country and watch from close varied cultures and traditions.

Thieves, burglars give residents uneasy nights
Police appeals for registration of tenants, domestic servants

Cops to rescue of ailing stray animals
Ailing stray animals have a reliable but very unlikely friend here - district police that is running an animal shelter-cum-rescue centre at Jalandhar.
The centre "Pashupalika" set up by the Jalandhar police in August 2000 has been instrumental in the treatment of about 2000 injured and ailing stray animals during four years of its existence.
