Make SIT report on hooch deaths public: Hooda
Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, February 22
Former Chief Minister and
Leader of Opposition
Bhupinder Singh Hooda
today demanded making
the Special Investigation
Team (SIT) report on
hooch deaths public.
He claimed that the report
was being kept under wraps
as it had names which could
shake up the BJP-JJP gov-
ernment. He addressed a
press conference in this
regard today.
Hooda said 40-50 people had
died after drinking poisonous
liquor in November last year
and a big liquor scam was
MUNICIPAL CORPORATION, AMRITSAR,
exposed in the state. “Similar-
ly, the report of the registry
scam has also been kept
under wraps,” he said.
Hooda stated that the coali-
tion government of the state
was working on a policy of
increasing unemployment,
inflation and corruption. He
said the government should
cut down on scams if it want-
ed to bring in more revenue,
instead of imposing taxes that
added to inflation and mak-
ing life difficult for people.
“In the SDO recruitment,
the government has given
preference to the youth of
other states, bypassing the
people of Haryana. A total
of the 99 people have been
selected for 90 general cat-
egory posts, including nine
on the waiting list. But out
of these 99, only 22 are from
Haryana,” Hooda said.
He said after the general
category, the BJP-JJP gov-
ernment was now changing
the policy with the reserved
categories for Scheduled
and Backward Castes.
Bhupinder Singh Hooda addresses the media in Chandigarh. “The government has
reduced the limit of 15 years

in Haryana. Because people
of other states will be able to
apply for reserved category
jobs by acquiring domicile
here,” he said.
He also pointed out the
cancellation of recruit-
ment of panchayat secre-
taries, PGT Sanskrit and
now TGT English.
The Leader of Opposition
raised serious questions on the
new sports policy of the gov-
ernment and said the coalition
government had completely
destroyed the “Get medals, get
post” policy of the Congress
government. “The new policy
discriminates against Para
Olympians as their appoint-
ment is restricted to Group-B
posts,” Hooda pointed out.

Complacency to masks and

seems to have cost the

month continuous decline
in cases and deaths, Pun-

the peak and in just one
month, 60,000 cases were
reported. State Nodal Officer

daily average of cases in Jan-

250. However, in the past 15
days, the average of cases ris-

the last three weeks, besides
153 deaths, a total 5,377 cases
have been reported.

What followed was an impromptu

Another time, I was on my way back
from the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival
with some friends when a fellow pas-
senger overheard our plans to visit a
theatre to watch a play and invited us

us wondering who he was. With great

Soft spot for Rajoana
What is the rationale behind the
demand for the release of Balwant
Singh Rajoana, the professed killer
of former Chief Minister Beant
Singh and 16 others? Astonishing-
ly, the demand has been made by
none other than SGPC president
Bibi Jagir Kaur. Though any killing
must be condemned, yet these are
particularly troubling, since the
killer and his victims are Sikhs.
Rajoana has never expressed any
remorse for his heinous crime and
never apologised to the families of
his victims. Sirhan Bishara Sirhan,
the assassin of Robert F Kennedy,
has been in jail for 53 years, never
paroled even once. No Arab coun-
try has made a demand for his
release even though he is a Pales-
tinian. I find it objectionable that
the SGPC, supposedly a religious
body, would even consider to
defend Rajoana in the court of law,

Let the episodes of Hathras and

What an irony! We have begun to
appreciate the cult of narcissism. And,
as a result, the spirit of dialogue and
negotiation, or sensitivity and tender-
ness is seen to be the characteristic of a
‘weak’ personality. A ‘strong’ leader is
one who loves himself to the extent that
he considers his monologue as the ulti-
mate truth; and as ‘followers’ we must
accept every word he utters, or be hyp-
notised by his presence—the rhetoric of
a dramaturgical performance. Not sole-
ly that. A strong leader abhors all femi-
nine sensibilities; narcissism and hyper-
masculine aggression must go together.

As students of business, we were
often required to burn the midnight

many such occasions, when hunger

More importantly, however, were the

It’s appreciable that after the decla-

THE TRIBUNE
obituary of democracy, and inviting a
new form of authoritarianism? Violence
is its inevitable consequence. Our lan-
guage is toxic; words are weapons of
destruction; a slogan like ‘goli maaro
saalo ko’ is the new normal; and the troll
army is an integral component of this
politico-cultural landscape. We have
become terribly violent; friends have
become enemies; neighbours have
become strangers; we have lost our
sublime prayers as religion has
degenerated into a narrow/egotistic
mandir-masjid politics.
These days as the ruling regime
wants us to believe that even a
young girl like Disha Ravi is part of
‘global conspiracy to defame
India’, it is important to remind
ourselves of the bitter truth: we do
not need conspirators to defame the
country; with our own deeds and
practices, we are degrading our-
selves. With every act of cow vigilan-
tism and mob lynching, India is
defamed. With the very idea of ‘love
jihad’, India is defamed. And the
recurrence of brute sexuality and
violence against women does by no
means glorify India. As the entire
world sees the misery of the
migrant workers during the pan-
demic, India is defamed. And the
way the State deals with its own
people—say, farmers, Dalit activists,
students, or ordinary Kashmiri men
and women—reveals how the emer-
gent totalitarianism is killing the
very soul of democracy. India is not
a picture postcard; India is not a
mythical tale of rishis and yogis;
India is not the statue of Buddha or
Gandhi. India is not what is written
in the Constitution. Instead, India
is terribly wounded.
Possibly, the possibility of our col-
lective redemption lies in the
acknowledgement of this sickness.
And then, you and I might feel the
need to work on ourselves, over-
come our sadomasochism, see the
discontents of narcissism and hol-
lowness of egotistic pride, realise
the religiosity of love and compas-
sion, and move towards a truly egal-
itarian, sane society.

the rare business deal that unexpect-

When I first arrived in Mumbai,
the trains and the crowds looked
intimidating. But once I had trav-
elled on these trains alone, guided
by a few friends on the phone, I lost
all fear and often travelled long dis-
tance to areas where the magnifi-
cent Art Deco buildings, historic
Irani cafes, and roadside book sell-
ers made me feel as much at home
as in Chandigarh. Mumbai’s trains
are often said to be the city’s life-
line. But in the time that I spent in
that city, I realised that these trains
breathe life into countless stories
daily — some filled with warmth,
others that fill stomachs!

the chronic virus of the spirit of
subservience spread across the
body politic. This is a pandemic
against which ‘the only vaccina-
tion is your conscience or your will

to the unwilling ‘patient’ who is
rather gaining at the cost of non-
deliverance of the dose? And if the

Disability Act anomaly
As per the Budget proposals, two
banks are to be privatised. There is
an anomaly which exists in Section
30 of the Pension Act. If a disabled
takes premature retirement due to
total incapacitation after the com-
pletion of 28 years of service,
he/she is denied notional benefit of
five years of service in the pen-
sionary benefits. The anomaly
exists since 1996 when the Disabil-
ity Act was passed in 1996. But it
still exists even after passing of the
disability Act 2016. Before the pri-
vatisation of banks, the anomaly
must be removed.

I
N 2020, more than a century
after the historic Pagdi Sambhal
Jatta farmers’ movement in pre-
Partition Punjab, the Central
government enacted three laws
which are considered to be ‘anti-
farmer’ by the peasantry. Ajit Singh,
who spearheaded the 1907 move-
ment, has been resurrected as an
icon and a powerful inspiration for
the present farmers’ agitation on
Delhi’s borders and all over India.
The British colonial government
brought in three laws against the
farmers of Punjab in the first decade
of the 20th century — the Punjab
Land Colonisation Bill, which intro-
duced inheritance by primogeniture,
threatening farmers’ land with
seizure, as they are fearing now; the
Bari Doab Canal Act, by which rates of
water were increased, and 25 per cent
hike in revenue rates was effected;
and the Punjab Land Alienation Act.
Between March and May 1907, sev-
eral meetings were held in various
cities of Punjab to oppose the three
laws. On March 22, 1907, during a
meeting held at Lyallpur, Lala Banke
Dayal, editor, Jhang Syal, recited his
poem, Pagdi Sambhal Jatta, now
‘highly seditious’ by British officials
and a case under Section 124-A (sedi-
tion) of the IPC was registered
against him. Lord Kitchener, Com-
mander-in-chief of the British forces
in India, apprehended a revolt in the
forces. Ultimately, the three laws
were revoked in May 1907, but Lala
Lajpat Rai, also a speaker at some of
these meetings, was arrested on May
9 and Ajit Singh on June 2. Both
were deported to the Mandalay
prison in Burma for six months
under Regulation-III of 1818. Both
were released on November 11, 1907.
Ajit Singh, uncle of Shaheed Bhagat
Singh, was born on February 23, 1881,
at Khatkar Kalan village (then in
Jalandhar district), just three weeks
after The Tribune came into existence
in Lahore. Arjan Singh, father of Kis-
han Singh (Bhagat Singh’s father),
Ajit Singh and Swarn Singh, was a
staunch nationalist. All brothers did
matriculation from Sain Das Anglo-
Sanskrit School, Jalandhar. Later, Ajit
Singh completed a law course from
Bareilly college. During his college
days in Bareilly in 1903, Ajit Singh
and Kishan Singh went to Delhi to
meet the Indian princes attending
Delhi Durbar called by Viceroy Lord
Curzon. They tried to impress upon
the princes to fight against the British
rulers. As Ajit Singh mentioned in his
autobiography Buried Alive, they
were in close touch with Motilal
Ghosh, proprietor of Amrita Bazar
Patrika (published from Calcutta),
and Kali Prasun Chatterjee of The Tri-
bune. In 1903, Ajit Singh married Har-
nam Kaur, adopted daughter of Dhan-
pat Rai of Kasur.
Both brothers attended the 1906
Congress session at Calcutta, presided
over by Dadabhai Naoroji. They sided
with Bal Gangadhar Tilak in the Con-
gress. Returning to Punjab, they
formed Bharat Mata Society, which
was called Anjuman-i-Mohabban-e-
he spent more than half of his life
in exile. Over a century later, the
movement has found resonance with
the ongoing farmers’ agitation.

He also met Lenin, Trotsky and Mus-

of Jawaharlal Nehru, who had
become interim Prime Minister of
India, Ajit Singh was released from a
prison in Germany. He returned to
India on March 7, 1947, after spend-
ing two months in London with Indi-
an nationalists while recuperating
from ill health. In Delhi, he was a
guest of Nehru. On his return to
Lahore on April 9, he was given a
tumultuous welcome. In view of his
bad health, he went to the hill station
of Dalhousie in July 1947. On the
intervening night of August 14-15,
1947, after listening to Nehru’s Tryst
with Destiny speech, he felt over-
whelmed and after saying ‘Jai Hind’,
breathed his last around 3:30 am in
free India. His memorial at Panjpola
in Dalhousie is a place for paying
tributes to the great revolutionary
freedom fighter and leader of Indian
farmers’ struggle for justice.

issue to be resolved by the following
principle by both sides, generations — possibly a clever ploy
to trigger confrontation, when expedi-
detailed negotiations could ent, as also to pose the threat of a
follow. For the interim, both ‘two-front war’ on India.
In the recent imbroglio in eastern
sides must commit to Ladakh, Indian forces did well to
promptly wrest the initiative from the
completely demilitarise Chinese, particularly by occupying
the area and keep their dominating heights on the Kailash
Range on August 29-30, 2020, thus
forces well back at mutually effectively blunting Chinese designs
for any further offensive as also
agreed locations, to be markedly strengthening India’s bar-
monitored through gaining position. This, followed by the
five-point resolution adopted by the
a joint mechanism. Foreign Ministers of both countries in
Russia on September 10 and the subse-
quent rounds of military-level talks
WAY FORWARD: Cartographic distortions of the past, resulting in differing
perceptions, can be resolved using advanced techniques available now. PTI
have finally yielded in a synchronised
and mutually monitored disengage-
ment. However, even if this process
proceeds earnestly as visualised, disen-
gagement can, at best, avert an imme-
diate confrontation but not eliminate
the possibility of a similar, or even
worse, conflict in future. The ultimate
solution lies only in a comprehensive
resolution of the dispute. It is only pru-
dent, therefore, that the current focus
on disengagement of troops must
eventually graduate, in continuum, to
permanent settlement by delineating
and demarcating the entire border.
The ambiguity about the border with
China is an ancient legacy. In Ladakh,
it was sanctified by treaties from time
to time and assumed to be well known
based on usage, customs and traditions.
The British proposal, on attaining sov-
ereignty over Jammu & Kashmir in
1847, to delineate the border by a joint
tripartite commission did not find
favour with China. Ironically, the
British themselves seem to have lacked
clarity as they kept vacillating between
a maximalist Johnson-Ardagh Line and
a more moderate Macartney Line,
essentially dictated by requirements of
the ‘Great Game’ for control over Cen-
tral Asia, principal variables being the
Russian pressure and Chinese ability to
provide a buffer. Their map of the mid-
1930s showed the frontier with a colour
wash with the annotation ‘boundary
undefined’. The firm boundary shown
in the 1954 Survey of India map was not
accepted by China and, in the absence
of any presence of Indian military or
administrative control of the area, they
started the construction of the Aksai
Chin road shortly thereafter.
Towards finding a solution now, it
would be in order to visit the existing
ground reality — Arunachal Pradesh has
always been an integral part of India and
Aksai Chin has been under Chinese con-
trol since the mid-1950s, through which
passes their strategic national highway
G219, being the only road link between
Xinjiang and Tibet. The Chinese claims
over Arunachal Pradesh as well as Indi-
an assertion to take back Aksai Chin are
virtually matching in rhetoric. A realistic
appraisal of the balance of combat power
of both sides would suggest that neither
seems to be in a position to realise their
respective claims in the foreseeable
future by employing military means.
The process of clarification of the LAC,
started in 1993, has got scuttled and,
even the LAC has now lost its sanctity;
the confidence building measures
(CBMs), formulated in 1996, have been
compromised. As such, a pragmatic solu-
tion for the future lies in the realm of a
negotiated border settlement.
Here, it would be instructive to
understand the Chinese mindset on
border settlement by recalling Deng
Xiaoping’s proposal to Atal Bihari Vaj-
payee, the then Foreign Minister, dur-
ing his visit to Beijing in February
1979. He had then stated that China
could compromise her stand in the
eastern sector for a similar concession
by India in the rest of the places,
implying concessions by both sides.
The Indian viewpoint on this matter,
as stated by PV Narasimha Rao, the
then Foreign Minister, in Parliament
in July 1980, was that Arunachal
Pradesh was an integral part of India
and, as such, the very premise on
which China was offering the conces-
sion had no basis. Nevertheless,
mutual understanding and accommo-
dation/adjustment in all sectors has
remained at the core of their subse-
quent exchanges at various levels.
Flowing from the above, one possible
way towards an equitable and mutual-
ly acceptable solution would be to
recognise the boundary alignment
based on the widely accepted ‘water-
shed principle’, both in the eastern
and middle sectors. In the east, China
must accept Arunachal Pradesh as an
undisputed part of India and recognise
the McMahon Line as the border. In the
central sector, the six border passes
agreed to in 1956 should form the basis
of border alignment. Cartographic dis-
tortions of the past, resulting in differ-
ing perceptions, can be resolved using
advanced techniques available now.
In the Ladakh sector, the solution may
well be in a negotiated settlement some-
where between the Chinese 1959 Claim
Line and the boundary claimed by
India. Once this is broadly accepted in
principle by both sides, detailed negoti-
ations could follow. Underlying princi-
ples for fixing the precise alignment
should include providing adequate
depth to the Indian road to Daulat Beg
Oldie (DBO) as well as Chinese High-
way G219; the boundary should run
along identifiable topographical fea-
tures, ensuring even defensibility; and
no settled population must be dislocat-
ed. No doubt this would be a hard bar-
gain and a long-drawn exercise, but will
surely be a step forward to reach a final
settlement. For the interim, both sides
must commit to completely demilitarise
the area and keep their forces well back
at mutually agreed locations, to be mon-
itored through a joint mechanism.
This would usher in a permanent
‘win-win’ situation for both countries
and also pave the way for regional
cooperation to mutual advantage.

Alarmed, agencies to tweak Mehbooba

SOP for convoy movement
Sticky bombs found recently in Samba; IED destroyed in Nowgam
Tribune News Service
New Delhi, February 22
Alarmed over the spotting of
sticky bombs in Samba dis-
trict last week, the security
agencies have been working
to come up with changes to
the standard operating proce-
dure (SOP) for convoy move-
ment, as forces today
destroyed a suspected Impro-
vised Explosive Device (IED)
found in Nowgam.
Officials in the J&K’s secu-
rity establishment said as per
the changed SOPs, there
would be a restriction on
civilian vehicles traveling
alongside convoys.
Sticky bombs can be
attached to vehicles and det-
onated remotely or exploded
using timer. On February 14,

police also recovered 15
small IEDs and six pistols in
Samba district.
A senior security official
said, “The explosive device is
fixed with a coin-shaped
magnet on the bottom of a
small container. This enables
the attackers to stick the
bomb to a metal surface with
the target mostly being a
moving vehicle. Instead of
being detonated through

Future-RIL deal: SC
to hear Amazon plea
New Delhi, February 22
The Supreme Court on Mon-

pass a final order on the amal-

with Reliance Retail as it
agreed to hear Amazon’s
plea against the Delhi High
Court verdict staying its sin-
gle judge directive to main-
tain status quo on the deal.
Amazon has moved the
top court against the order
of the high court which
paved the way for the deal.
During the brief hearing,
the SC proposed to pass an
order to stay the proceedings
before the NCLT. The Future
group had moved the tribu-
nal seeking regulatory
approvals to the Rs 24,713-
crore deal with Reliance.
Senior advocate Harish
Salve, appearing for the
Future group, said however
that the top court’s stay
order will prolong the pro-
ceedings by the NCLT by at

Australia won’t
allow players to
endorse betting,

New Delhi, February 22
Cricket Australia (CA) does-
n’t want its players to feature
in advertisements promoting
betting, fast food, alcohol and
tobacco brands during the
next edition of Indian Pre-
mier League. The 14th Indi-
an Premier League is sched-
uled to start in the second
week of April and quite a few
Australian cricketers, includ-
ing big buys Glenn Maxwell
and Jhye Richardson, are
going to be part of the action.
According to media report,
in a recent advisory to the all
the IPL franchises the BCCI
quoted CA as saying, “A full
team photo — for use only by
the sponsors of the relevant
IPL team in print media in
India and any such photo
should not involve or include
the name or branding of a
company primarily engaged
in the business of alcohol, fast
food/fast food restaurants,
tobacco or betting.”
Among other restrictions,
CA said not more than one
player from a Big Bash
League (BBL) side and a state
team should be used in
advertising campaigns.
As many as 19 Australians
are set to play in IPL 2021.
Prominent among them are
Steven Smith, Maxwell,
Nathan Coulter-Nile,
Richardson, Riley Mered-
ith, Ben Cutting, Moises

Unsold at IPL auction, NZ’s
Conway smashes 59-ball 99
Christchurch, February 22
Was there something amiss
about the recent IPL auc-
tion? Those who watched
Devon Conway bat today, or,
in the days before, might
think so. For, four days after
going unsold in the auction
that was held thousands of
kilometres away, the South
African-born New Zealan-
der blazed his way to a 59-
ball unbeaten 99 and pow-
ered the Black Caps to a
resounding win in the first
of the five T20 Internation-
als against Australia here.
Conway’s base price in the
IPL auctions was Rs 50 lakh.
India off-spinner Ravichan-
dran Ashwin summed up
what the lucrative league, its
eight franchises and millions
of fans may have missed out
on. “Devon Conway is just 4
days late, but what a

Fast bowler set to play 100th Test in Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad, February 22
Helping India to win the
inaugural World Test Cham-
pionship (WTC) would be as
momentous as a World Cup
victory for fast bowler
Ishant Sharma, who is set to
play his 100th Test against
England from Wednesday.
In a career spanning 14
years, the 32-year-old from
Delhi has taken over 300
wickets in the longest for-
mat of the game but the
last time he played white-
ball cricket for India was
over five years ago.
Only Kapil Dev, with 131
matches, has played more
Tests than Ishant for India
as a fast bowler.
“There’s a lot of time for
131,” Ishant told reporters
today. “Right now I am only
thinking about how we can
win the next Test. And then
the next so that we can
qualify for the final of World
Test Championship.”
“I only play one format, so
the WTC is like a World Cup
for me. If we reach the final
and then go on to win it, it
will be the same feeling as
winning the ICC World
Cup,” he added.
The ICC launched the
WTC last year to lend con-
text to bilateral Test series,
giving Test cricket its
standalone showpiece like
the World Cup in other for-
mats. New Zealand have

The 29-year-old Conway,
who was born in Johannes-
burg and later moved base
to New Zealand, clobbered
10 fours and three sixes
during his 79 minutes of
stay in the middle.
Conway entered the T20
series opener on the back of
and a 77-run third-wicket
stand with Gurkeerat Mann

start. But Punjab’s chase
faltered after Mann’s wick-

Earlier, Siddharth Kaul’s

Defence Minister Rajnath

planned to allocate about
Rs 70,221 crore for procure-
ment of defence equipment
that is made in India.
This means more than half
of procurement would be
done from Indian firms. The
capital allocation for the fiscal
2021-22 is Rs 1,35,060 crore.
“This increase will have a
positive impact on enhanced
domestic procurement, having
multiplier effect on our indus-

nar organised by the industry
chambers. The theme was

Modi: No dearth of
investors for Bengal
Tribune News Service
New Delhi, February 22
Lamenting the decline in
West Bengal’s industry sec-
tor, Prime Minister Narendra
Modi on Monday said this
would change if the BJP was
elected to power in the state.
Addressing a public meet-
ing at a ground adjacent to
Chuchura’s Dunlop Factory
— once a famous manufac-
turer of tyres but now closed
— Modi said there was no
dearth of people interested in
investing in Bengal.
Without naming the TMC
government in the state head-
ed by Mamata Banerjee, Modi
alleged that the incumbent
government in the state was
responsible for creating an
atmosphere that discouraged
investors from coming to WB.
“The cut money culture, syn-
dicate raj prevailing in the state
has hastened the state’s indus-
trial decline,” Modi said. He
said immediately after com-
ing to power, the BJP govern-
please clarify,” Tharoor said
after Carnatic vocalist TM
Krishna questioned the move.
Krishna also posted on Twit-
ter a letter by some school
alumni expressing disappoint-
ment at the question. The con-
troversial question offers a
background to R-Day violence
before asking students to write
a letter to the editor about it.

The PM said the jute indus-
try in Hoogly district, once a
thriving sector, was now suf-
fering under government
neglect. Noting that Hoogly is
famous for potato and paddy,
Modi said growers would ben-
efit immensely if food pro-
cessing units came up in the
area. The PM inaugurated a
metro project (4.1 km Noa-
para to Dakhineswar) and
four railway projects.
The school alumni in a letter
to the principal said, “We
express our disappointment at
such an inappropriate question
being included in a Class X
paper and call upon you to pon-
der the 10 principles of Arya
Samaj etched in stone on the
school campus. Unfortunately,
the letter writing exercise
turned out to be a highly edito-
rialised polemic against one

Rujira Naroola Banerjee,

she was in receipt of the

she was unavailable. Writing
on her own letterhead, Rujira
said though she was unaware
of the reason for her being
called for questioning or the

CBI personnel might visit her
