शहर के लाइन पार क्षेत्र के लिए वर्षो से चली आ रही रेल फुट ओवरब्रिज की मांग फिर जोर पकड़ने लगी है। न्यू प्रेम नगर कल्याण समिति के महासचिव ओपी झांब का कहना है कि फुट ओवरब्रिज नहीं बनने से लाइन पार क्षेत्र के लोगों को खासी परेशानी का सामना करना पड़ रहा है। ओपी झांब का कहना है कि समिति लंबे समय से रेल विभाग से इस मांग को करती आ रही है। सांसद डॉ. अरविंद शर्मा से भी अनुरोध किया गया था। सांसद ने छह अगस्त को बयान दिया था कि करनाल में बनने वाले रेल फुट ओवरब्रिज की मांग को पूरा करवाने के लिए वह गंभीर है। इस बारे में वह रेल मंत्री व प्रधानमंत्री से मिले, लेकिन परिणाम शून्य रहा।

उन्होंने बताया कि रेल फुट ओवरब्रिज की मांग को लेकर समिति जल्द ही सांसद और रेल अधिकारियों से मिलेगी ताकि लाइन पार क्षेत्र में रहने वालों लोगों की परेशानी को दूर किया जा सके। उन्होंने रेल मंत्री से मांग की है कि वह इस मांग को जल्द से जल्द पूरा करें। झांब ने एकता कालोनी में निर्माणाधीन कम्यूनिटी सेंटर जो अधर में लटका है उसे भी जल्द बनवाने की मांग उठाई है।

पेट्रोल के दाम बढ़ने पर फिर बढ़ा आक्रोष

पेट्रोल के दाम बढ़ने के साथ ही जनता में फिर आक्रोश बढ़ गया। लोगों ने सरकार को कोसते हुए कहा कि यह महंगाई बढ़ाने की हद पार हो रही है। पेट्रोल के दाम बढ़ने की खबर मिलते ही पेट्रोल पंप पर वाहन चालकों की भीड़ उमड़ पड़ी। वाहन चालकों ने अपने अपने वाहन की गाड़ी की टंकी फुल कराई तो कइयों ने अपनी जेब के अनुसार पेट्रोल डलवाया। हालत यहां तक रही कि लोग प्लास्टिक की बोतल में भी पेट्रोल डलवाकर ले गए। शहर के हर पेट्रोल पंप पर देर रात तक वाहनों की कतार नहीं टूटी।

सेक्टर सात के जुगल किशोर ने कहा कि कांग्रेस के शासन में महंगाई बढ़ने की हद पार हो चुकी है। एक साल में इतनी बार पेट्रोल के दाम बढे़ हैं कि अब गरीब वाहन चलाने की सोच भी नहीं सकता। सेक्टर नौ निवासी अनिल मिगलानी ने कहा कि एक साल में चार बार पेट्रोल के दाम बढ़ने साफ है कि सरकार किस हद तक महंगाई पर नियंत्रण करने के दावे कर रही है। सेक्टर 13 के राजेश डुडेजा ने कहा कि वह महंगाई से उकता चुके हैं। सरकार को पेट्रोल के दाम तुरंत कम करने चाहिए।

दयाल सिंह कालोनी निवासी सुमित मिगलानी कहता है कि पेट्रोल के दाम बढ़ने का असर हर क्षेत्र पर दिखाई देगा। मेरठ रोड निवासी विजय गुप्ता का कहना है कि वह कार की सवारी छोड़ कर अब मोटरसाइकिल चलाना भी नहीं सोच सकता।

Six dead in Karnal cracker factory blast

Six persons, including two women, were killed and at least 14 people sustained severe burn injuries in a blast at a cracker factory in Karnal at around 9:30 pm on Monday.

Among the injured, four people are in a critical condition and have been referred to PGIMER, Chandigarh.

Karnal Deputy Commissioner Neelam P Kasni, after visiting the spot and the injured at the Civil Hospital, said a detailed inquiry has been ordered into the incident.

Senior police officials said there were around 50-60 workers present in the factory at the time of blast and most of the deceased and injured hailed from Uttar Pradesh or West Bengal.

The blast occured after a fire broke out in one of the biggest cracker factories in Haryana.

The exact cause of the fire is yet to be ascertained but preliminary inspection conducted by the fire department indicated that a spark in one corner of the factory where crackers were dumped led to the fire and the blast.

It took fire fighters more than an hour to bring the fire under control.

Kasni told reporters that the injured were being taken care of at the Karnal Civil Hospital and also at a few private hospitals.

“It was a deafening noise and it took some time to realise that it was a blast,” Kasni said.

Zuckerberg makes Karnal Richer...!

Mona Sandhu, a lecturer turned costume jewellery designer, set up a jewellery store in her home city of Karnal, Haryana, in 2006. The five-year-old store was doing well, selling about 70 pieces a week, but the limited pool of customers was stifling for the ambitious businesswoman. 


On a whim, Sandhu set up a profile on Facebook at the end of last year with photographs of some of her products. To her surprise, she bagged an order the same day from a customer in California. Ten months on, Sandhu, whose social media page has been liked by 17000 visitors, is busy planning exhibitions in the US and UK. 


As business on social media gains rapid acceptance, small-town entrepreneurs are securing customers from across the world. Sandhu gets over 100 orders a week mostly from customers in the US, Canada and the UK. On an average, individual customers order 5-10 pieces at a time, while a wholesale order starts at 40. "I have international recognition which has helped increase sales by 20 times since the launch of the page," says Sandhu for whom the Facebook page is the sole link with her customers. 

For scores of entrepreneurs like Sandhu living in non-metros and towns with tight marketing budgets and no experience of running a commercial enterprise, Facebook has emerged as a significant marketing and sales tool. In fact, many of them are using their Facebook page as a substitute for a proprietary website. It costs nothing to set up a page, profile or group and it provides space for displaying photographs to boot.

Student thrashed for asking more food

Errant teacher Raj Kumar not only thrashed Anu but also threw the food bowl on her face, the victim`s family alleged. Ironically, the incident happened within the days after the Haryana government announced to extend the facility of mid-day meals to the girl students of classes XI and XII.

The happening came to light on Thursday after the victim`s maternal uncle and relatives staged agitation outside the school demanding immediate action against the schoolteacher. Though the education department made a foiled attempt to cover up the issue, administration ordered a probe which would be carried out by a team headed by SDM Dinesh Kumar.

Karnal doctor held for sex determination test

A doctor and his assistant in Haryana's Karnal town were caught red-handed Wednesday while they were conducting a test on a pregnant woman to determine the foetus' gender.


A team of district authorities and health officials, led by Karnal Civil Surgeon Vandana Bhatia, caught Brij Bhushan, who runs the Karnal Ultrasound Centre, and his compounder Amit while conductingthen sex dtermionation test, whih is banned under law.


The team was accompanied by police officers.


The officials seized a China-made portable ultrasound machine and other equipments.

Expressing concern over the role of black money and paid news in elections, the Chief Election Commissioner, Dr SY Quraishi, today said the twin evils were not only the main impediments to free and fair elections, but also undermined democracy.

Quraishi, who was here to receive the Pt Jasraj Award of HIFA, said there was broad consensus among political parties, the Election Commission, media and other stakeholders on the issue to curb the role of black money in the elections, but there was a dire need to implement measures to end the problem.

Observing that there was a general atmosphere in the country against these evils, he said the Election Commission was planning to organise a national-level seminar on these issues to get valuable suggestions.

However, in spite of all these problems and bottlenecks, India was a vibrant democracy, he added.

He said the media committees would be constituted in all districts to check paid news and notices would be issued to media house for any breach. He also suggested a self-regulatory system in the media to check this unhealthy practice.

Rotarians take a passage to India to give polio jabs

Farewell: Sheppey Rotarians,

Margo Bronger and Ray Seager 

CHARITABLE Sheppey residents have travelled halfway across the world to help protect children from a crippling disease.

Isle of Sheppey Rotary Club member Margo Bronger, vice president Christina Logue and Minster Rotary club president Ray Seager left for India from Minster Working Men's Club on Thursday afternoon.

The rotarians have volunteered to vaccinate youngsters in Karnal in northern India for National Immunisation Day.

It is the first time any of them had taken part in the immunisation drive, which is part of the End Polio Now campaign where 167 million children under 5 will be vaccinated in less than a week.

Thousands of vaccination booths were set up in Agra, Jaipur, Karnal and Dehli.

Christina, 64, who joined the Rotary club two years ago, said: "I felt I wanted to give a little bit extra help rather than just handing over money.

"When I heard about the volunteers helping to vaccinate the children and how much it means to be able to assist in eradicating this dreadful disease I wanted to experience it first-hand."

Christina saw the effects of polio when she was a school girl and another pupil contracted the disease. She said: "She spent what seemed to be an eternity in one of the great iron lungs and when she came back to school it was in callipers. It has always stuck with me, it is such a dreadful thing."

Fellow volunteer Margo, 70, took gifts for the children she vaccinates. Using donations from friends she bought 350 pencils with rubbers and 50 beanie toys.

It is also the first trip to India for National Immunisation Day for Ray, steward at Minster Working Men's Club.

Thanks to Rotary club help, two billion children have been vaccinated against polio, which can lead to paralysis, deformed limbs and a lifetime of pain. The number of countries where the disease is endemic has dropped from 129 to just four – Afghanistan, Northern India, Nigeria and Pakistan.

National Immunisation Days take place every six weeks in the endemic countries and Rotary clubs send members on self-funded trips each February and November.

Rs 8L mare's the best

Today luxury cars may be what people hanker after, while horse-driven vehicles are a thing of the past, but thoroughbred horses are still in great demand and their price is more than a swish set of wheels in some cases. 

The state level animal Mela held here on Saturday saw many thoroughbred horses besides good breeds of cattle, being proudly displayed by their owners. Reshma, a mare, the costliest in Haryana with a price tag of over Rs 8 lakh, was adjudged the best at the Mela. 

Her owner, Munabai, of village Galibkheri informed that Reshma belongs to a breed of horses from Rajasthan. A murrah breed buffalo owned by Hoshiar Singh, a resident of village Singawa Khas, district Hisar was adjudged the best buffalo at the Mela. The Mela was organized by the department of animal husbandry and dairy.

Issues : HUDA Karnal Water & Sewerage Deptt

Issues :

This new section will focus on general issues and specific ones (of particular colony) which we feel should be published so that authorities could recognize the problem and find a suitable solution.

Here is a Resident's Complaints regarding HUDA Karnal Water & Sewerage Deptt. which i came across through this link.

"We are a resident of Sector 13 at H.No. 1456, in Karnal city. We are regularily complaining about the blocked sewerage connection from the main hole itself but no one is listening or trying to correct the sewerage. We put various entries in their complaint log book also but we are still suffering form the last 10 days. Can anyone concerned can get it done by the concerned authorities?"

I hope the concerned authorities will look into the problem and solve it at the earliest.

Karnal: A girl child born on a moving train has been named Mamata Banerjee! That's right, after the Railway Minister.

The girl was delivered on board the Barauni Express train between Kurukshetra and Karnal stations Saturday, with a handful of women travelling on coach S-9 volunteering to help in the delivery of the child in the absence of any medical aid on board.
