Scandal Characteristically Indian politics has started to flow towards deeps and there is no end in sight of this downfall. Scandals are coming to surface everyday in which, mostly, politicians are involved and these new revelations have surprised the people of the country. There isn’t any crime that our political leaders have not committed. It is a shame for the ‘mahan’ Indian democracy that murder, decoity and rape accused get elected as the Members of Parliament. A recent incident is the perfect example of it. It must be learnt that a NCP MP has been arresting for his involvement in a murder case. NCP leader Padamsinh Patil had been found to be involved in a big sugar mill scandal. Two social workers, Pavan Raje Nimbalkar and Anna Hazare had played an important role for the revelation of the scandal. When the scam was being investigated, Pavan Raje Nimbalkar got murdered. It must be learnt that at that time Padamsinh Patil himself was a minister in the NCP led state government of Maharashtra while another NCP leader RR Patil was the Home minister of the state. With it, it becomes evident that state police did not even file a FIR against Padamsinh Patil under the political pressure. Arrest It must be learnt that Nimbalkar was a Congress leader but even the Congress Chief Minister of the state failed to provide justice to the family of the slain leader. At last the family of the slain leader, knocked at the door of the high court. High court had ordered CBI to investigate the case. After three years of investigation and arrest of the murderers CBI has arrested Padamsinh Patil . The murderers accepted that Patil had given them thirty lakh rupees as a supari for the murder of Nimbalkar. It has not ender here. He had even tried to give them the contract of killing famous social activist Anna Hazare but they refused because the assassination of such a famous leader could create law and order problem in the state and situation could slip out of hands. The surprising fact is it that Congress and NCP are alliance partners in the state and the centre government. In spite of all these facts Patil got Nimbalkar murdered who was his close relative also. These stories of moral degradation show that to what extent the characters of our [...]

No Hope for Closed Sugar Mills of Punjab
June 9th, 2009 
Aman Government Decision All hopes of revival have ended for the closed sugar mills of Punjab. Badal led SAD-BJP alliance government has decided to sell the land of six closed sugar mills to the Punjab State Federation of Co-operative House Building Society for the construction of housing colonies instead of reviving these sick units. With it the dreams of thousands of employees and mill laborers of resumption of work have dashed. It must be learnt that former Co-operative minister late Captain Kanwaljeet Singh had dreamt of reviving the sick mills within the time frame of three months but his dreams too have been broken. Co-operative department has 15 sugar mills out of which, Faridkot, Jeera, Budhlada, Jagraon, Tarantaran and Rakhra based sugar mills have been closed for a long time because of government’s indifference. All the workers of these mills have been left jobless. Neither they have got their salaries for a long time nor have they been transferred to other governmental departments.

Late Captain Kanwaljeet Singh had promised to take immediate steps for the revitalization of these ill-mills. To keep his promise he had planned to establish electricity production units in these sugar mills to solve the financial problems of these mills. More than fifteen private companies had showed their interests in this new planning. An electricity production unite has already been established in Faridkot based sugar mill that was established in 1991. This unite produces the electricity worth two crore seventy lakh annually. But this mill, too, has been closed because state government has shown the deficit of seventy seven crore in the time of ten years. In spite of the planning of restarting production from these sick unites the state government has allotted the land of these mills to Housefed to construct big residential colonies. Faridkot based mill has 133 acres of land out of which 65 acres have been allotted to Housefed to construct residential colonies. Except it large chunks of land of the remaining five sick sugar units have also been allotted to construct residential colonies. Economy of Punjab Except it the financial condition of the remaining sugar mills of Ajnala, Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar (Nawan Shahar), Batala, [...]
