Need to educate youth about dangers of drug

CHANDIGARH, AUG 25
A three-day course on Mid –career Interaction between the Armed Forces and Civil Services Officers on "Drug Trafficking" began at Haryana Institute of Public Administration ( HIPA) Gurgaon today. The course is sponsored by Department of Personnel and Training (DOPT) of Government of India.
About 30 officers from Indian Administrative Services, Indian Forest Services, Indian Revenue Services, Indian Police Services and Probationary Officers from Customs & Central Excise department are participating in this course. It is a zonal training programme in which officers are participating from the States of Gujarat, Punjab, Rajasthan, J&K, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi and Haryana.
While addressing the course participants, Director General of NACEN Dr G Sreekumar Menon, IRS, laid thrust on the need to educate the youth about the dangers of drug addiction because once trapped, it is difficult to come out of the menace of drug addiction. He said that a drug edict can not take right decisions and become lazy. It hampers the performance of the person who at times may become aggressive and keep on wandering here and there aimlessly. He said that addiction of narcotic drugs is very expensive which it affects health of the person who resorts to other crimes like theft, kidnapping of children etc to quench his urge to have the drug.
According to Dr Menon, the synthetic drugs ,which are available in the market, are comparatively cheaper but more powerful. He asked the officers to device special awareness programmes for spreading awareness among the youth not to fall prey to the narcotic drugs. He gave a detailed presentation showing the history of origin of narcotic drugs, their misuse, Drug Wars, Narco Terrorism, Drug Trafficking etc and highlighted how narcotics can become a potent weapon for destroying the future of a country. Giving data, he said that drug trafficking is estimated at about 200 billion dollars per year in the world. 34 countries including India have laid penalty for use and trafficking of narcotic drugs. He said that according to an estimate more than 70 percent of Punjab Youth have fallen into drug trap. It is our duty to protect the youth from menace of narcotic drug addiction, Dr Menon remarked.
Earlier, Director General of HIPA R S Dalal told about the activities of HIPA and said that training gives you work and pleasure, which is important part of life. Training is good time for learning and for a change in daily routine.
Professor at HIPA Smt Rekha Srivastava gave introduction about the course and said that during these three days many eminent speakers including Joint Director of Directorate of Revenue Intelligence ( DRI), Deputy Director General Northern Region of Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) New Delhi R P Singh,Drug Law Enforcement Expert Prabhjeet Singh Gulati from United Nations office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) New Delhi, Director of Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) New Delhi R K Tiwari (IRS Retd), IG ( Personnel) from BSF Headquarters New Delhi Ajay Kumar Tomar would also deliberate in the course.
She said that drug consumption and the persistence of drug trafficking over the years has been showing an increasing trend. There is a need for strong commitment to face and overcome the challenges posed by the drug menace. Against this background, the present course is being conducted with an attempt to analyse it with the basic objective to increase exposure of these officers to meet unforeseen situations at short notice. It would also help them to combat future challenges to national security in better manner, Smt Srivastava added.

 Prime Minister Narendra Modi today hinted at stringent measures to eradicate the menace of corruption from the society and added that he was feeling that now the people would not bear this social evil.

          The Prime Minister was speaking after laying the foundation stone of Rs 1393 crore four-laning project of 166 km long Kaithal-Narwana-Barwala-Hisar-Siwani National Highway up to Rajasthan Border at Kaithal today.

          The audience at the venue responded in affirmative when the Prime Minister asked them whether he should take strong measures to check corruption. The Prime Minister described corruption as more deadly than the cancer which was adversely affecting the national life in the country. He also emphasized on the need for generation of employment opportunities adding that the people were now feeling that they should not remain backward, they have to progress and the only way to achieve this was to make development. Therefore, development of infrastructure would be given priority, he added.

          He said that after his address to the nation on August 15, some people had pointed out that he did not speak against corruption. He reminded that he had said that if somebody has to do any work, one would ask ‘Mera Kya’ (What for me). If the work is not done, one would say ‘Mujhe Kya’ (What to me). This sense of ‘Mera Kya’ and ‘Mujhe Kya’ has spoiled the nation.

          He also emphasized to change the century-old infrastructure adding that with the changing times, the people have the desire to have new infrastructural facilities. It was high time to have gas-grid, power-grid, improved connectivity, have broadband facility, optical fibres and ensure speedy development of villages. Efforts were being made to meet the demands of the new generation.

          He said that while taking a cue from the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Sadak Yojana initiated by the former Prime Minister Mr Atal Bihari Vajpayee, another scheme known as Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana would be implemented. He was all praise for the farmers of Haryana who feed the nation, but said that the farmers do not earn much. Therefore, it was high time to give a new direction to the agriculture which would not only increase the agricultural production, but would also enhance the income of the farmers. He sought cooperation of the people in making Haryana more developed.

          The Prime Minister assured his support for the development of the state, saying that the love and affection that they have shown would be repaid with interest. He recalled his association with Haryana and appreciated the people of Haryana for their wit and humour. He said that he had learnt a lot from the state. He said that the four-laning project for which he has laid the foundation stone would connect Haryana-Rajasthan and would benefit not only these two states, but also the entire country. The Prime Minister said that the mantra of development must reach all. We must change the fate of Haryana and make it a front runner state.

          Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways, Mr Nitin Gadkari said that eight new projects involving an investment of Rs 10,000 crore would be initiated and ten ongoing projects that had been delayed because of some legal issues like land acquisition and environment clearances would be got cleared. He said that Skill Development Corporation would be set up to give employment to the unemployed. He said that a target has been fixed to increase the GDP by two per cent in two years.

          Union Minister of State for Road Transport, Highways and Shipping, Mr Krishanpal Gurjar said that not only the promises made to the people would be fulfilled, but more than that would be achieved. The Central Government has prepared a road map for development of Haryana. He said that compensation for land acquisition would be given on new increased rates. He assured the farmers that the Central Government would not harm them.

          Others present on the occasion included Haryana Governor Prof. Kaptan Singh Solanki, Union Minister of State Rao Inderjit Singh, Haryana Public Works (Building and Roads) Minister Mr Randeep Singh Surjewala, Lok Sabha MP Mr Raj Kumar Saini and many other prominent personalities of the area.

BJP goes out of lane at PM's function, feels Hooda

CHANDIGARH, AUG 19
Haryana Chief Minister  Bhupinder Singh Hooda today took strong exception to the manner in which the BJP turned an official function of Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi into a political rally in the presence of Prime Minister at Kaithal.
          The Chief Minister, who addressed media persons after the function, termed it as a planned conspiracy which is highly condemnable. He said that he hails from the family of freedom fighters and has faith in democratic system. Therefore, he always keeps the office of Prime Minister in high esteem. He pointed out that in case the BJP continued to behave in this manner, he would not attend any such function of the Prime Minister in future.
          Mr Hooda said that the BJP has been adversely affecting the democratic system of the country, which is very dangerous. He said that the office of Prime Minister does not belong to any political party, but it’s an institutional entity, but today its dignity has been lowered. Even earlier the Prime Minister belonging to the Congress Party had been visiting non-Congress ruled States but never before such a situation has been witnessed. He said that this despite being an official function, there were ticket seekers and supporters of the party.
          Mr Hooda said that the first visit of Prime Minister, Mr Narendra Modi has disappointed the people of Haryana as they  had great hope from the Prime Minister and he added that Mr Modi even did not refer to any of the eight demands put forth by him at the official function in Kaithal today.   
Mr. Hooda said that during his speech, the Prime Minister   referred to the development made by Haryana and was all praise for the hard working farmers of the State who feed the nation.
Mr. Hooda said that the foundation stone of four-laning of 166 km Kaithal-Narwana-Barwala-Hisar-Siwani National Highway up to Rajasthan Border which has been laid today by Mr. Modi had already been approved in the year 2012. The 95 per cent land of this project was acquired between the year 2013 and 2014 and got the environment clearance in August 2013.   Mr. Hooda hoped that work of this project, which was initiated by the UPA Government would  soon be completed.

It will grant an opportunity to the associations of employees or individual employees to represent before the commission which will make appropriate recommendations to the State Government for the removal of such anomalies and deviations.

Separate decision in respect of such employees working in department will be taken depending upon the facts of the individual cases.
The Chief Minister said that recently an Act had been enacted by the state legislature abolishing distinction between the technical and non-technical pay scales. Those drawing the Technical Pay Scale on the date of promulgation of the ordinance, prior to enactment of the Act, their pay (Technical Scale) will be protected. Those persons whose Technical Pay Scale has been protected will continue to get ACP Scales also on those Technical Pay Scales only.

Gurgaon Police signs MoU with MDI to control crime

CHANDIGARH, AUG 12

Gurgaon police today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Management Development Institute (MDI), a leading management institute of India, to zero down the crime rate in Gurgaon and to control crime at stage one, that is, at the place of occurrence of crime. The MoU was inked by Commissioner of Police Gurgaon Alok Mittal and Director of MDI Prof Mukul Gupta at the Police Commissioner’s office today.

          Briefing the media persons about the MoU, Commissioner of Police Alok Mittal said that it consists of two projects. One project has been named ‘Shakti’ and the second project is an exercise to create ‘Crime Index’ for Gurgaon, which will be helpful in assessing the crime rate scientifically, as was being done in developed countries. The duration fixed for completing both these projects by doing data analysis is 16 to 18 months; Mr Mittal said and added that MDI will take the lead in these projects while Gurgaon Police would be assisting it by providing data available with it.

          ACP Crime Rajesh Kumar would be the Nodal Officer for both these projects and Commissioner of Police Alok Mittal and Joint Commissioner of Police Vivek Sharma would be interacting with MDI for creating ‘Crime Index’. In case of ‘Shakti’ project, Commissioner of Police Alok Mittal, DCP East Nazneen Bhasin and DCP West Sangeeta Rani would interact and provide the details needed to MDI.

          Mr Mittal said that the Crime Index would be helpful in calculating the crime rate scientifically like the sensex of Mumbai Stock Exchange. With creation of crime index, one would be able to analyze whether the crime rate has increased or decreased in Gurgaon. For this, the MDI faculty would conduct a basic survey of incidents of crime in Gurgaon like in which areas the incidents are more, the reasons behind it, timings of occurrence, age group of persons involved and age group of victims etc. It is basically an exercise to develop an ability to predict the occurrence of crime in advance so that preventive measures can be taken by the police. Once created, the crime index would be prepared for whole of the Gurgaon district and also Police Station wise. He said that this would help in evidence based policing as was done in foreign countries.

          Similarly, in case of ‘Shakti’ project, the MDI faculty would analyse the calls received on women helpline number 1091 like victim profile, who are persons frequently involved in crime against women, their age group, areas from where number of calls is more, the reasons behind it, the behavior of the call attendant at the helpline desk, whether her response helped the victim in normalising or otherwise, quality of police response etc. He said that after analysing the data, the MDI faculty would submit its report and Gurgaon Police would take action on their findings.

          He said that presently there is no scientific methodology to assess crime rate in Gurgaon. The perception of police and public regarding crime is totally different. Suppose there is no incident of crime in a particular area, people say the crime rate has gone down but if a incident of chain snatching happens, people take it as rise in crime rate in that area. This is public perception towards crime but in Police records, it is maintained in a different way. According to Police theory, chain snatching incidents are placed below murder and other heinous crimes which may not be concern for majority of the population.

          Director of MDI Prof Mukul Gupta said that MDI is in Gurgaon for last 40 years and for the first time they have been given an opportunity to do something for Gurgaon. He hoped that they would be able to contribute in making Gurgaon more safer by improving policing here.

          On this occasion, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Vivek Sharma, DCP (East) Nazneen Bhasin, DCP (HQ) Badan Singh, DCP (West) Sangita Rani, Professor in Operations Management in MDI, S Chatterjee, Professor in IT D P Goyal and Registrar of MDI Harpal Singh were also present.

CHANDIGARH, AUG 4

The Haryana Chief Minister, Mr. Bhupinder Singh Hooda, today directed to set up departments of Punjabi, Hindi and Sanskrit in Chaudhary Devi Lal University, Sirsa. He also directed to set up departments of foreign languages in the University for Spanish, German and Japanese languages as these offer excellent career prospects for the students.

          Mr. Hooda was speaking at a function organized at Chaudhary Devi Lal University, Sirsa today.

Mr. Hooda said that people were well aware of the condition of this University prior to the year 2005. Chaudhary Devi Lal University, Sirsa was set up at a cost of Rs. three crore which was a very small amount for the construction of any university. With this amount, only three to four rooms could be constructed which would not have suffice the purpose of a University. But the present State Government has accorded it the status of full- fledged University by providing grant of more than hundred crore of rupees. Chaudhary Devi Lal University is being given higher grants as compared to other Universities in the State, added Mr. Hooda.

          The Chief Minister said that better infrastructural facilities have been developed in the State.  Special attention has been paid towards the education of youth in the State as it has been realized that only those country or state would remain on the forefront which leads in education.  We ensured the development of State according to the vision we had set up in the year 2005. In the next few years, the State would develop as an education hub of international level.  

          Mr. Hooda said that the State has witnessed an unprecedented development during the last 9-10 years. The State which was at 14^thposition in terms of development has now reached number one. He said that the State also ranks first in per capita income, per capita investment, resource mobilization and per capita expenditure on planned budget.

Mr. Hooda said that the State is also emerging as a sports hub. The players of Haryana have brought laurels to the State and the Country with their scintillating performance in the Commonwealth Games held at Glasgow recently.    Out of the total 64 medals won by the country, 22 medals have been won by the players of Haryana. Though Haryana is a small State having 2 per cent population of the country, yet its players have won more than 35 per cent medal of the total medal won by the country in the Commonwealth Games. He said that this all has become possible due to the Sports Policy of the State Government.

On this occasion, Mr. Hooda inaugurated an ultramodern Multi Purpose Hall in the University constructed at a cost of Rs. 28.50 crore. He also laid the foundation stone of new girls’ hostel to be constructed at a cost of Rs. 8.50 crore and teaching block of Law Department to be constructed at a cost of Rs. 10.36 crore.

CHANDIGARH, AUG 3
The Haryana Chief Minister, Mr Bhupinder Singh Hooda, has announced the decision to waive off VAT on  pulses; cut it on mustard oilcakes (Khal) from 5 per cent to 2 per cent; and abolish the market fee on 'Gur.' Besides, market fee on cotton would be kept at 1.6 per cent up to 2015.

          These concessions were announced by Mr Hooda while addressing the state-level Vyapar Mandal Sammelan in Hisar today.  He said that since it was the duty of the state government to provide security to the traders, a coordination committee would be set up at the district level which would comprise officers from the district administration and businessmen.

          Mr Hooda said that he had directed the Director General of Police to issue licenses for weapons to businessmen on a priority basis. The police have been told to pay special attention to the security of commercial areas in the state, for, some anti-social elements may try to disturb the peace during the ensuing Vidhan Sabha elections.

       The Chief Minister said the state government would honour all those businessmen in the district who paid the highest taxes. Haryana today has a congenial and secure atmosphere where businessmen can honestly carry out business and trade. From small to big traders, all are taking advantage of the benefits of the sops given by the state government, he added.

          Mr Hooda promised to meet the demand of the people for the construction of two toilets in Hisar mandi and maintenance of the platform meant for selling vegetables. He gave Rs 10 lakh each for the construction of two gaushalas in the district and also promised  land for the playground of a school located in the mandi area.

          The Chief Minister said that inspector raj had been abolished in the state; Form 38 eliminated and cash memo limit hiked from Rs 300 to Rs 1,000. Those small traders who face loss due to short-circuit in a shop would get compensation of Rs 5 lakh. Schemes have been made for street vendors for which market area would be developed on vacant land in HUDA sectors and committee areas.

          Mr Hooda said that since the formation of the Congress Government in the state in 2005, business environment has changed. Law and order has been established; fear has been replaced by hopefulness; the flight of capital has been reversed; and Haryana has emerged as hub of investment, both domestic and foreign, thanks to the industry-friendly policies pursued by the Congress Government during the last ten years. A new industrial policy was launched for strengthening the industrial infrastructure in the state and industrialists and businessmen have been given various concession and facilities, he added.
