SUPPORT THE BRAVE GREEN ARMYPAGE 5

According to a survey asmany as 22 big cities in thecountry are facing acuteshortage of drinking water.The situation is bound to getout of control if steps are nottaken soon. Jammu City is

 bursting at its seams. Withno control over the burgeon-ing population and spread of the city horizontally, theGreater Jammu city areanow starts from BariBrahamna to Domana and from Sidhra to Pouni Check.It is a vast swath of land with a million plus popula-tion, means a huge pressureon the underground water resources of Jammu City. Itis easy way to dig a deeptube well and proudly claimits inauguration which theever present politicians doevery time but it is differentto think how the exhaustingwater table will be replen-ished. Vast areas of Jammucity depend upon the drink-

ing water, which is taken outof the ground through

 pumps. If the rate of digg ing

tube wells goes by the samespeed, then a time will comewhen we shall have exhaust-ed our underground sourcesof water. There has to be a

 proper plan in pl ace to check this rampant misuse of underground water. There isno way other than to enforcea strict building code so thatrain water is harvested and circulated in the ground. Inaddition, the governmentwill have to construct hun-dreds of small ponds all over the city so that the rainwater is collected whichwill eventually rechargethe ever receding water table. Surprisingly till date,no survey has been done inorder to ascertain the quan-tity of ground water pres-ent in the areas of Greater Jammu. Bringing water from Chenab is a solution

 but to make Jammu a sus-tainable city, it is impera-tive that its depleting water 

resources are recharged on a priority ba sis.

 ROHIT SINGH RA NA

This is the tale of two stars on the

ascendant and also of the other. The

other despite his long innings refuses to

go away. It reminds us of a king who

despite losing, teeth, health and above

all credibility still chose to clung to

 power like a leech. The statement of 

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on

 board his s pecial aircraft while return-

ing from St. Petersberg said," I have

always maintained that Rahul Gandhi

would be an ideal choice for the PM

 post after 2014 elections (Lok Sabha). I

will be very happy to work in the

Congress under the leadership of Rahul

Gandhi."

The political scene in India today is in a

great flux with two chief contenders

vying with one another, for the PM’s

 post. Rahul Ga ndhi and Na rendra Modi

seem to edge out other aspiring candi-

dates for the top post. Here Modi edges

out Rahul by a margin and sentiment

that is seen all over the country. With

the carefully crafted image of a tough politici an and admini strator of out-

standing ability, Modi is genuinely seen

nearer to the PM’s post. Despite internal

squabbles and some noises here and 

there within his party, it appears almost

certain that he will eventually be

declared as the BJP’s candidate for the

Prime Minister.

Rahul Baba is known to have no admin-

istrative ability, no matter how much

the Congress loudly proclaims that he

has all the abilities needed for the post

of prime minister. Sadly enough, the

Prime Minister material that was in

 Nehru, Indira, Shastri and Vajpayee

seems to have gone with the wind. Rest

is left, a son of a dynasty and the other 

Modi. Rahul has not inspired the nation

with his ideas. What he thinks about the

 problems of the country and how he

enunciates them is not his cup of tea. A

weak orator, despite his long grooming,

he has till date come as a cropper.

In this perplexing situation the third candidate who is still the Prime

Minister of India is not in a mood to

shun power. After his stellar role under 

 Narsimha Rao as Finance Minister, hehad two innings as Prime Minister. The

first went average but in the second he

has brought the nation at the verge of 

mortgaging its 550 odd tons of gold to

reverse the sagging financial situation.

With scams almost riding on his shoul-

ders he is only a pale self of himself 

despite his honest credentials and label

of a top economist.

Having tasted power and other associat-

ed authority with it, he should have felt

now completely saturated with satisfac-

tion. But as they say greed and attach-

ment are the biggest enemies of man

and same is happening with the PM. He

wants to serve under Rahul Gandhi in

order to remain in the reckoning.

Manmohan is not so simpleton in poli-

tics as is ought to be made out. He has

 perfected the art of silence to such

finesse that it has provoked the

Opposition to launch a tirade against

him. But his silence has helped him

save his face at odd many occasions. Atthe same time it has cost him his repu-

tation. One thought in all fairness that

Manmohan will retire as gracefully as

Vajpayee did and command somerespect. But he has his own script,

craftily written for him. His statement

to work under Rahul Gandi can also

mean that in case Rahul Gandhi with his

shortcomings or a deliberate policy to

isolate him form the pale of responsi-

 bilit y by becom ing Presi dent of 

Congress, in that scenario it leaves

Manmohan an outside chance to go for 

a third term which in past he has not

denied. The Gandhi dynasty has of late

carved a new art of governing India

indirectly without sharing any direct

responsibility. Sonia Gandhi as UPA

Chairperson is having the cake and eat-

ing it too. Same script could be written

for Rahul Baba with Manmohan work-

ing under him. This way the statement

of Prime Minister sound plausible and 

doable. Fresh from the St. Petrsberg

trip with its cool climate and famed 

gardens, Manmohan Singh feels

renewed vigour to ‘serve’ the country.

How gloomy, that he still can notescape the allure of power despite brin-

ing country on the brink.

Panchayat heads ...raised his objection, while

asserting that "hollow

 promises, which have been

made repeatedly but never 

fulfilled in the last three

years" were being made to

hoodwink the panchayat

members. Many of the par-

ticipants joined and raised 

slogans for empowermentof the panchayati raj insti-

tutions in Jammu and 

Kashmir, leading to abrupt

termination of Mr.

Gandhi's speech. It further 

added to the chaos and 

confusion and the gather-

ing moved out, without lis-

tening to Ambika Soni's

announcement that grants

of Rs. 10 lakh would be

 provided to each panchay-

at in the State. Mr. Gandhi,

who reached Jammu on a

two-day visit, later left for 

Srinagar where he is

scheduled to interact with

the party workers before

inaugurating a controlled 

atmosphere store in

Pulwama and meeting with

the women self help

groups and youths being

trained under Himayat and 

Umeed programmes.

Sarpanch interrupts ...to the state beginning on

Wednesday is seen as a

move by Congress to build 

 pressure on coalition part-

ner National Conference to

incorporate certain provi-

sions of the 73rd and 74th

amendments of the

Constitution on Panchayati

Raj. Gandhi assured the

sarpanches, "We will

implement the 73rd amendment." "You will get

your right. I will fight this

 battle for you. I will keep

coming and keep mounting

 pressure.. .You have to

fight this battle. We are

with you. We, all of us

together, will put pressure

on the state government.

We are with you. This

thing will happen cent per 

cent," he said. Reminding

them that it had taken

almost one-and-a-half 

years to ensure passage of 

the new Land Acquisition

Bill, he said this will also

eventually happen "not

easily" but only after peo-

 ple fight for it.

Highlighting right-based 

schemes like MNREGA,

RTI and food security

 brought by UPA, the

Congress vice president

said these programmes

cannot be implemented 

without panchayati raj and 

without sarpanches as "in

order to implement these

 programmes, the leader-

ship should be in villages."

"This is the politics of the

future and this is what will

happen in Jammu and 

Kashmir as well. I want to

assure you that in the time

to come, you will get these

rights...In 21st century, the panchayats, the local bod-

ies will have to be empow-

ered.

"Decisions will be taken in

villages in the 21st century.

If we have to change

Jammu and Kashmir, then

first of all we will have to

empower the leaders of 

 panchayats and local bod-

ies...There is no other way

to empower you if you

have to run this state

 because MLAS, MPs can-

not do what you can do.

They don't have the kind of 

knowledge about villages

that you have," Gandhi

said.

Multi-layered security ...made in hospitals to deal

with any eventuality on the

rally day as a precaution-

ary measure, the police

official said. According to

BJP leader Anupama

Jaiswal, over three lakh

 people, including a large

number of women from

eight nearby Lok Sabha

constituencies are expect-

ed to attend the rally.

Suicide attack ...

 part of a nationwide spike

that has gripped Iraq in the

 past few months. More

than 5,500 people have been killed since April.

arrested the accused and a

this regard. After complet-

VK Singh to ...and Kashmir for several

years. His comment came

while he was responding to

reports claiming that

Technical Services

Division, an intelligence

unit of the Army created 

during his tenure, had paid 

Rs 1.19 crore to state min-

ister Ghulam Hassan Mir 

allegedly to destabilise

Omar Abdullah govern-ment in 2010.

Singh's statement was

severely criticised by

 politici ans after which

 National Conference min-

isters and MLAs moved a

motion against him for 

alleging that some minis-

ters in Jammu and 

Kashmir were paid money

to get certain jobs done

since Independence.

BSP MP's ...told the police that he had 

not "exactly seen Rakhi

die", but he did see her in

 pain after a brutal beating

 by Jagriti. The teen, who

was traumatised by the

incident, told police that

Rakhi collapsed after 

sometime and was given

first aid by Jagriti. By

Monday morning, Rakhi's

condition deteriorated and 

she died. "Jagriti called her 

husband and told him that

Rakhi had fallen off the

staircase - which, accord-

ing to residents, was

always locked - and 

seemed to have died," said 

an investigating officer,

who didn't want to be

named, said citing the 17-

year-old's testimony. The

BSP MP has been accused 

of destroying evidence of 

Jagriti's brutality. Before

calling the police, he

allegedly removed the hard 

drive of the CCTV camera

network installed at their 

home. Dhananjay Singh

has refuted the charges and 

has said that Jagriti had 

called him three days

 before the incident and 

told him that the maid had 

injured herself after a fall

from the terrace of the

house. "While Rakhi has

injury marks all over her 

 body, the 17-year-old has

 burn marks, wounds from

a smashed head and bruis-

es on his limbs," the officer 

added.Jagriti has been booked for 

murder, attempt to murder 

and for assaulting a juve-

nile. Her husband, a Lok 

Sabha MP from Jaunpur in

Uttar Pradesh, was booked 

for concealment of evi-

dence.

Dhananjay and Jagriti,

who fell in love in 2005

when the latter was study-

ing dentistry in Lucknow,

had filed for divorce seven

months ago in a city court.

Fire in OPD ...official of the fire and 

emergency services said.He said 18 fire tenders

have been rushed to the

spot to put out the blaze.

The patients and attendants

admitted in the nearby in-

 patient department were

evacuated to safety, hospi-

tal sources said, adding

there are no reports of any

injury in the incident so

far.

Two youths ...the complaint, the men

yesterday allegedly took 

the victim behind some

 bushes in nearby paddy

fields where they took 

turns to rape her.A case under section 376

CrPC (rape) has been reg-

istered against the accused,

 police said, adding that the

victim has been sent for a

medical examination.

JAMMU, NOV 06:Cautioning people againstdisruptive and communalelements, ProvincialPresident NationalConference Mr Devender Singh Rana on Wednesdaysaid that Jammu and Kashmir has to flourish as a singleentity and shinning abode of various faiths, as per its glori-

ous ethos. Addressing a day-long convention of AllJammu and Kashmir CentralParamilitary Forces WelfareAssociation this afternoon,Mr Rana exuded confidencethat people will maintainunity and foil the communaland misleading elementswith their full might. He cas-tigated Bharatya Janata Partyand Peoples DemocraticParty for their hidden agendaof dividing the people oncommunal and regional lineswith a bigger plan of weaken-ing secular forces. "Theyhave been hand in glove inexploiting the situations, likethe one in Kishtwar recently,in a bid to flare up passions

and polarise the people onreligious and regional lines.In this context, he referred tothe bonhomie of these two

 parties during 2008Amarnath land row agitationand resultant wedge betweenthe two regions. "NationalConference foiled theseattempts with the cooperationof the people of Kashmir and 

Jammu, and will continue todo so whenever the singular entity of the State is threat-ened", he maintained.Mr Rana took on PDP for itsduplicity, saying its leaderswere exploiting the senti-ments of people in Kashmir 

 by describing the State as acolony of India and speakingquite contrary to it when inJammu. "PDP stands exposed for the double standards ithas been pursuing in lust of 

 power", he said.Taking a dig at BJP for pursu-ing their own set of national-ism, Mr Rana said their jug-glery cannot work in dividingthe people on religious lines."They are suffering from a

unique syndrome of treatingthose who support them asnationalists and others not sonationalist", he said and reminded BJP leaders thatIndia belongs to all, irrespec-tive of their regional or reli-gious affiliations.The Provincial Presidentexpressed concern over emergence of communal

forces across the nation and described it as bad omen for the unity of the country. Heexhorted the people to alien-ate these forces in order toretain the unique secular character of the State and thenation.Referring to measures beingtaken by the government led 

 by Omar Abdullah for eco-nomic emancipation and employment generation for the youth, the ProvincialPresident said that the Chief Minister has taken up withthe Centre the issue regardingspecial recruitment packagefor youngsters residing in the

 border belts from Kathua toGurez.

KOLKATA: Pacer Mohammed Shamiannounced his arrival on theTest arena by scalping four wickets in a dream spellagainst the West Indies as adominant India started Sachin Tendulkar's farewellseries by taking early control

of the first Test onWednesday.Shami returned impressivefigures of 4-71 in 18 overs asIndia bowled out the visitorsfor a paltry 234 after theyopted to bat at the EdenGardens on the opening day.At stumps, India were com-fortably placed at 37 for noloss with the two openers,Shikhar Dhawan (21) and Murali Vijay (16), at thecrease. At the end of firstday's play, India trailed theWest Indies by 197 runs withall their wickets intact.West Indies skipper DarrenSammy's decision to bat mayhave prevented the crowd from watching Tendulkar baton the first day itself, but the40-year-old retiring legend did his bit with the bowl

 picking up a wicket in hisfirst over itself, taking hisTest wicket tally to 46.While Tendulkar wasundoubtedly the cynosure of all eyes, Shami grabbed theopportunity with both hands

as he rocked the West Indiesmiddle-order with a hostilespell that included quite afew reverse-swinging deliv-eries.The 23-year-old Shami'swickets included KieranPowell, top-scorer MarlonSamuels, Denesh Ramdinand Sheldon Cottrell.Earlier, West Windies were

 placed were placed comf ort-ably at 107 for two at lunch,

 but Shami wreaked havoc inthe second session, extractingexcellent reverse swingsfrom the Eden pitch to trigger a collapse. The touring sidelost eight wickets for 96 runsto be skittled out in 78 overs.Samuels scored 65 off 98

 balls with the help of 11 foursand two sixes.About 40,000 turned up onthe first day, expectingTendulkar to bat. While thatdid not happen, with the ballhe turned the clock back ashe trapped ShaneShillingford in front of thewicket with a straighter oneafter bowling three turningdeliveries.Left-arm spinner PragyanOjha (1-62) too impressed with his tidy bowling but hewas unlucky twice with skip-

 per Dhoni droppi ng Samuelsand Shane Shillingford ontwo occasions. RavichandranAshwin claimed 2-52.Born in Moradabad in Uttar 

Pradesh, Shami moved toBengal eight years ago oncoach Badruddin SIddique'sinsistence as there were notmany opportunities for theyoung pacer in his homestate.Son of a farmer, Shami, whohails from a remote village

called Sahaspur about 22kmsfrom Moradabad, found hiscalling in Kolkata whereclub cricket was very muchactive as he went on to plyhis trade for clubs likeDalhousie AC and Town

HOBART: Skipper Alastair Cook and Michael Carberry

 put Engl and in a command-ing position with unbeatencenturies on the opening dayof their tour match against

Australia A on Wednesday.At the close, England had  batted a ll d ay and were 318without loss after winningthe toss, with Cook unbeatenon 154 and Carberry, pre-ferred as opener to Joe Root,on 153.A dominant Cook conjured memories of his last tri-umphant Ashes tour of Australia three years agowith another big innings off 272 balls.Carberry all but played hisway into the Test team for theAshes series opener againstAustralia in Brisbane on

 November 21 with his patient288-ball innings, whichincluded 22 boundaries and two sixes.The 33-year-old Hampshireleft-hander was given hischance to open with Cook after Root was bumped downto number five in the batting

order for the Hobart game.Carberry followed up his 78in last weekend's drawnopening tour game againstthe WA Chairman's XI inPerth with another impres-

sive audition for a Test spot.Root appears to have paid the price for England's brittle-ness in the top order duringthe July-August Ashes serieswhen the home side failed to

 pass 400 in any of their innings.On six occasions, England were three down for less than65 runs and, aside from a big180 at Lord's, Root struggled against Australian quicksRyan Harris and Peter Siddle,who are likely to again havethe new ball in Brisbane.Australian leg-spin greatShane Warne said onMonday that Root would be"crucified" if he was picked to open in the Tests and he islikely to find a place lower inthe order as he averages 40with two centuries from just11 matches.Cook, also criticised byWarne as a negative and 

unimaginative captain,showed glimpses of his bestform in the 2010-11 Ashes inAustralia, when he scored anunbeaten 235 and two other centuries.

England had an easy timeagainst the thin Australia A bowling attack under sunnyskies with just two recog-nised seamers in TrentCopeland and Ben Cuttingalong with all-rounder and captain Moises Henriques.It was a deliberate tactic byAustralia not to pick bowlersin Ashes contention for theHobart match, however the

 plan might have backfired with England's openers givenan armchair ride into thecoming Test series.Cook, batsman KevinPietersen, spinner GraemeSwann and paceman StuartBroad were selected for their first outings on tour after allmissed the Perth match.Gary Ballance was included again after his first-ball duck in Perth as he bids to win thenumber six batting spot in theopening Ashes Test.

ABU DHABI: South Africa with-drew former captain and opener Graeme Smith from the remainder of the one-day series against Pakistan,an official said Wednesday.The 32-year-old suffered a blow onthe head off a Pakistan's pacemanMohammad Irfan's bouncer duringhis epic 234 in the second Test inDubai last month, a match whichSouth Africa won to level the series1-1.He managed to play the first two one-days in the five-match series but waswithdrawn before the third match

 played in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday.Team manager Mohammed Moosajee

said Smith suffered post-concussion."Graeme was symptom free after the

 blow except fo r a mild headache and tests at the time allowed him to con-tinue playing. However, seven days

 post-injury, during the second one-day in Dubai he started complainingof blurred vision which progressed todizziness, unsteadiness on his feetand difficulty focusing," said Moosajee."The MRI Scan was clear, however itis in keeping with the assessment of Post-Concussion Syndrome, which isusually a clinical diagnosis. Post-Concussion Syndrome can bedescribed as a collection of symptoms

that some people develop after theyhave experienced a minor traumatic

 brain injury otherwi se known as con-cussion."Graeme will leave the tour onThursday, and has been advised a rest

 period of at l east two week s by themedical team. He will continuously

 be monitored in t he interim."Smith was replaced by left-handed opener Quinton de Kock in the third match while Henry Davids will fly inas replacement for the remainder of the one-days.Smith has so far played 112 Tests and 195 one-day matches for SouthAfrica.

LONDON: Novak Djokovichas made a scathing attack on the anti-doping pro-gramme in tennis in a furiousresponse to his fellow SerbViktor Troicki's ban for miss-ing a drugs test. World num-

 ber two Djokovi c wasshocked to hear on Tuesdaythat Troicki had been told bythe Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) that he mustserve a 12-month ban.Troicki had originally beensuspended for 18 months byan International TennisFederation anti-doping tribu-nal but had appealed to CASto have the sanction over-turned. He refused to take a

 blood test at the Monte CarloMasters in April because hewas feeling unwell and has asevere phobia of needles.The player has always main-tained the doping control

officer (DCO) had assured him he would not face pun-ishment. The verdict cameonly 11 days after Croatia'sMarin Cilic had his ban for failing a doping test reduced from nine months to four months by CAS. "It's very

 bad news that we got for him,and for me, for all of us whoare close to him," Djokovicsaid. "Now in Viktor's case,he's going to be sanctioned until July next year, and thislady, the DCO, she's going tocome back tomorrow for the

spacecraft would go around 

Earth five times before going

out of the earth-bound orbit

into sun-centric orbit on

December 1, 2013 A day

after its successful launch,

India’s Mars Orbiter space-

craft was functioning

smoothly in the Earth’s orbit

and ready for orbit raising

operations on Thursday.

“Since its injection into

Earth’s orbit yesterday, it has

 been functioning smoothly

on the orbit. We are planning

to perform orbit raising

manoeuvres in the early

hours of tomorrow,” an

ISRO spokesman told PTI

over phone. Right now, the

Mars Orbiter Mission is on

its first round around the

Earth, ISRO sources said.

“The spacecraft would go

around the Earth five times

 before going ou t of the earth

 bound orbit into su n-centric

orbit on December 1, 2013.

It will then go around the sun

embarking on its nine-month

voyage to the red planet.”

ISRO’s PSLV C25 had suc-

cessfully injected the 1,350-

kg Orbiter into the orbit

around Earth some 44 min-

utes after a text book launch

at 2.38 p.m. from the Satish

Dhawan Space Centre at

Sriharikota, marking the suc-

cessful completion of the

first stage of the Rs. 450-

crore mission. Since the

launch, the control of the

mission has been taken over 

 by scientis ts at ISRO

Telemetry, Tracking and 

Command Network 

(ISTRAC) at Bangalore.

According to a satellite

tracking system website

www.n2yo.com, the MOM

spacecraft had just crossed 

 Nigeria and was flying over 

Chad, as on 1.09 p.m. India’s

MOM was at a perigee of 

(closest point from Earth) of 

264.1 km and an apogee (far-

thest point from Earth) of 

23,903.6 km with a degree of 

inclination of 19.3 degree.

However, according to the

website, MOM would not fly

over India, as its trajectory

would cross the Indian

Ocean, after leaving African

continent from Somalia in

the afternoon. The

International Designator or 

the NSSDC ID of India’s

Mars mission is 2013-060A.

HYDERABAD, NOV 6:

India is facing 15 million

tonnes of cold storage facility

gap and needs investment

from private sector to over-

come it, a top official from

Ministry of Food Processing

(MFP) said in Hyderabad on

Wednesday.

“According to data available

with us today, the availability

of cold storage capacity is

about 25 million tonnes in

2010. The requirement was

assessed to be 61 million

tonnes,” Siraj Hussain,

Secretary, MFP told reporters

on the sidelines of a FICCI

 programme in Hyderabad.

“So there was a gap of 31

million tonnes (in 2010).

Since then, we would have

added about 10 million

tonnes. So the gap is 26 mil-

lion tonnes.

“But my own assessment

says the actual gap is not 26

million tonnes. Because there

was a gap in methodology, so

the actual gap is about 15

million tonnes,” he added.

“We hope that the success

will depend on the invest-

ment coming from the private

sector without seeking any

subsidies. That will be a day

when we can say that the

chain is perfectly estab-

lished,” he said.

0Mr. Hussain said if the sup-

 ply chain is per fectly estab-

lished and if the organised 

retail sees a good profit in

 business they will ask others

to invest without any subsi-

dies.

Replying to a query, he said 

the Government of India’s

(GoI) position is that there

should be no restriction of 

inter-state movement of natu-

ral commodities.

When there is no restriction

on industrial goods, then why

there should be any restric-

tion on agriculture goods.

Ultimately, it is the farmer 

who will suffer. GOI has

written to state governments

also in this regard to enable

the farmer to get better 

 price,” he added.

The total exports of agricul-

tural processed food products

from India to other countries

stood at $ 30 billion last year 

and it is growing at an aver-

age of 20 per cent per annum,

he said.

He, however, said the export

of commodities depends on

international agreements and 

treaties and 20 per cent may

not be always possible.

Meanwhile, ‘Food 360’ a

two-day International

Conference-cum Exhibition

on Agri-business and Food 

Processing, organised by

RAM, NOV 6: The College

of Engineering is approach-

ing a landmark anniversary in

resolute style, expanding its

focus to incubating ideas

Leaf through the souvenir 

issued by the College of 

E n g i n e e r i n g ,

Thiruvananthapuram (CET),

to the alumni who attended 

its 70th anniversary celebra-

tions four years ago. You will

find an excerpt from M.

Mangalabhanu, a student of 

the first batch of the college,

which started functioning in

1938, describing those tense

moments in the college dur-

ing the Second World War,

which threatened to infiltrate

the Indian subcontinent.

“The threat of Japanese air 

attack on the mainland of 

India was looming large dur-

ing our third year in the alma

mater. The Principal

(Professor T.H. Mathewman)

ordered that the students shall

dig their own trenches (either 

to bury themselves or to

escape in case of a raid).

These were to be made in the

shady areas in the shape of an

elongated ‘W’…Pickaxes,

shovels, mammaty forks and 

 baskets were galore from the

University Students Labour 

Corps of which Principal Sri.

Mathewman was the head,”

he writes.

The batch had nine students.

The college was then func-

tioning in the present office

of the Chief Postmaster 

General, Kerala.

Delving into the history of 

the college, approaching its

75th anniversary, reveals

such striking recollections

and significant milestones.

Every vivid memory of the

college, often hailed as one

of the best technical institu-

tions in the State, dwells on

the friendships and the

atmosphere that linger 

among the students who

 passed out decades ago. The

college has grown into an

institution that has depart-

ments of studies in nine disci-

 plines: Civil Engineer ing,

Mechanical Engineering,

Electrical Engineering,

Electronics and 

Communication, Computer 

Science, Architecture,

Computer Applications,

Business Administration and 

Physical Education. It has

3,500 students and 300 teach-

ing staff. The institution

organises seminars to expose

students to the best technical

expertise. In addition to the

standard set of undergraduate

and postgraduate courses, the

campus has the Centre for 

Engineering Research and 

Development (CERD) to

 build a culture that priorities

science research. The institu-

tion has kept in tune with

technological developments.

A computer-aided drafting

facility was started in the

Department of Architecture

as early as 1990. The

Continuing Centre for 

Education was started in

1998.

Over the past few decades,

the college has taken the ini-

tiative to launch various

activities such as the

Entrepreneurship Club and 

the Industry Institution

Interaction Cell. It has an

active National Service

Scheme unit and an environ-

mental club, which conducts

regular nature conservation

activities.

They have conducted surveys

of the birds and butterflies on

the campus and compiled 

their findings into books.

There is a plant nursery that

is maintained near the Civil

Engineering wing.

KOCHI, NOV 6: Rolling

out the project to sell 5-kg

non-subsidised LPG cylin-

ders through fuel bunks may

take more time in the State

going by the feedback from

oil companies. The project is

likely to be a boon for bal-

looning floating population

fuelled by the growing IT and 

construction sectors. They

often find it difficult to

secure LPG connection.

Once implemented, it will

enable a customer to take

home LPG cylinder from a

 petrol pump by just flashing

an ID proof. A senior official

of a major oil company told 

The Hindu that the project

would take time. Potential

 petroleum dealers would 

have to be identified since all

 bunks cannot be covere d 

under the project. Safety

 parameters like storage space

that was flame-proof and 

devoid of electric connection

should be ensured besides

securing quite a few

approvals, including the

explosive licence, the officer 

said. Pricing will be volatile

since it will be market-driv-

en. For instance, in Chennai

where the project has been

implemented, a first-time

customer has to pay Rs.

1,649 per cylinder – Rs.

1,000 towards the cost of the

cylinder, Rs. 145 as VAT and 

Rs. 504 for LPG (LPG price

changes monthly with mark-

er prices). The price goes up

to Rs. 2,133 if the cost of reg-

ulator and hose, sales tax, and 

administrative or handling

charges of petroleum dealers

are also factored in.

Unlike in the case of domes-

tic subsidised LPG where the

oil company remains the

owner of the cylinder, under 

this project the ownership is

transferred to the customer.

He will have the option to

surrender the cylinder in

which case he will be able to

get a refill by paying LPG

 price alone.

Senior official of another oil

company said it had not

received any circular on the

implementation of the project

in the State. Initially, the

 project is likely to be restrict-

ed to a limited number of 

cylinders through selected 

company-owned and compa-

ny-operated fuel bunks. “We

are not expecting a huge

demand from the very outset.

Since five or ten cylinders

weighing probably 50 kg will

 be kept at each fuel pump,

separate licence may not be

needed,” he said. The Gas

Cylinder Rules exempt from

taking licence for possession

of LPG not exceeding 100 kg

at any one time.

Roll-out of LPG through bunks in Kerala may take time

BHUBANESWAR, NOV 6:

Students to get Rs. 2,000 per 

month for two years during

 postgraduate studies

Odisha government is com-

ing up with 32 scholarships

for meritorious students, who

would be pursing biotechnol-

ogy programme in their post-

graduate studies in the State.

The scholarship is intended 

for encouraging students to

opt for biotechnology stud-

ies. As many as 32 students

would be given Rs. 2000 per 

month for two years duringtheir postgraduate studies.

Till now, as many as 200 stu-

dents have been offered 

scholarships in basic sciences

such as physics, mathemat-

ics, chemistry, botany, zoolo-

gy and statistics. “We will

offer scholarships from the

academic session of 2013-14.

The government has made

 provision of Rs. 7.68 lakhs

for the provision. The schol-

arship will be encouragement

for students to select biotech-

nology as their career,” said 

Prof U. B. Mohapatra,

Director Biotechnology in

Science and Technology

department.

Despite State government’s

attempt to attract students to

 biotechnology stream, lack of 

 job opportunities in the sector was triggering gradual disin-

terest among students.

The biotechnology sector in

eastern Indian States is yet to

take off. Besides, there is

hardly any opening in gov-

ernment sector.

Although biotechnology is

taught in eight universities,

Odisha Public Service

Commission has hardly come

out with advertisement for 

recruitment of faculties in

 biotechnology stream.

Slender faculty

In undergraduate level, the

 biology fa culties in colleges

double up as biotechnology

faculties. Similarly, major 

universities also struggle

with slender faculty position.

In Utkal University, only one

faculty member in biotech-nology bears burden of entire

department.

 North Odisha University’s

condition was a little better 

with having three faculty

members.

The State government has

 pinned all its hopes on devel-

opment of proposed biotech-

nology park at Andharua in

Bhubaneswar for which

Bharat Biotech, a national

level biotech farm, has been

selected to be lead investor.

Bharat Biotech is expected to

start work on Biotechnology

Park very shortly.

The State government is

already in possession of 64

acres of land which would be

delivered to Bharat Biotech

in two installments.

The firm is expected to createan incubation centre for 

 biotechnolo gy stream stu-

dents of the State. Officials in

RAM, NOV 6: KIAL board 

awards work to lowest bidder 

Infrastructure and engineer-

ing conglomerate Larsen &Toubro (L&T) has been

awarded the engineering,

 procure ment, construc tion

(EPC) contract for Kannur airport, the fourth interna-

tional airport of the State.

The financial bids submitted 

 by L&T, GMR-Limak, ITDCementation India Ltd, and 

Sanjose-Gammon were

opened on Tuesday in the

capital. The lowest bid, byL&T was verified by the con-

sultant and the engineeringwing of Kannur International

Airport Ltd. (KIAL).

Based on this, the KIAL

 board, chaired by Chief 

Minister Oommen Chandy,

decided to award the EPCcontract to the company

which had executed the air- port projects in New Delhi,

Hyderabad, and Bangalore.

Minister for Excise, Ports,

and Airports K. Babu handed over the ‘letter of award’ to

L&T cluster head K.M. Shaji

in the presence of Additional

Chief Secretary, Aviation,V.J. Kurien and KIAL

Managing Director G.

Chandramouli. The contract

will have to be signed in 20days.

Official sources told The

Hindu that Union Defence

Minister A.K. Antony would formally launch the work by

the month-end. But, theground-levelling and tree-

cutting work would com-

mence in the next couple of 

days, they said.

As many as six companies

had come up with bids for theEPC. The board had set up a

five-member empowered committee, headed by Chief 

Secretary E.K. Bharat

Bhushan, to look into the

technical bids. Based on thecommittee’s report, the finan-

cial bids were opened on

Tuesday. The KIAL board 

had cleared the detailed proj-ect report prepared by

AECOM Asia. A consortium

led by the Hong Kong-based 

AECOM Asia Pvt. Ltd., and comprising AECOM India

Pvt. Ltd. and CRISIL, was

the project consultant. The

EPC for the airside included earthwork, and works on the

runway, taxiway, apron, and ground lighting. Associated 

infrastructure such as

 perimeter wall and opera-

tional wall would come under 

the EPC. The work on EPC II

to ensure that the first flighttakes off from the airport in

December 2015 is also in fullswing. The request for quali-

fication (RFQ) for the EPC II

will be floated in January

next and the aim was toaward the work by April

2014, sources said.

The integrated terminal

 building, air traffic control

tower, administrative and 

technical blocks, and facili-

ties in the buildings such as

aerobridges, escalators, ele-

vators, and counters would 

 be included in EPC II.

Environment clearance from

the Union Ministry of 

Environment and Forests for the project was received in

July this year and the 800

hectares needed had been

notified. The KIAL was in

 possession o f 511.2 hectares

of land and the remaining

was to be handed over soon.

SRINAGAR, NOV 06: J&K Private Schools United Front(JKPSUF) on Wednesdaydemanded that governmentdevise rules and regulations based on scientific principlesfor deciding dates and dura-tion of winter vacations.The Front said that everyyear the announcement of winter vacations has become

a big issue in Kashmir."There is no logic in thosedates except the benefits tosome officers, whose wivesand other relatives want tocherish the heat of Jammu,"said JKPSUF GeneralSecretary G N Var."As soon as the Durbar Movemigrates to Jammu, a vested lobby gets to work to getwinter vacations announced quickly." The Front said thatduring last so many years wehave seen that a slight snow-fall triggered winter vaca-tions. "But after some daysthe weather became sunnyagain and thus we lost many

academic days," said Var."Sometimes even our syl-labus remains incomplete, soit is better government forms proper rules and regulationsfor announcing such vaca-tions."The Front demanded that thegovernment constitute anexpert committee comprisingof officials of government

education department, pri-vate schools, weather depart-ment and a student parent body. "This committeeshould be empowered todecide the winter vacations based on scientific and logis-tic principles and also keep-ing in mind educationrequirements," said Var."It should not be the decisionmade purely for the benefit of wives, daughter in laws and other relative of babus."The global warming haschanged weather pattern of Kashmir and harsh winter of old days is a distant memory."The good thing is that the

Meteorological Departmenthas month long weather fore-cast in hand, so why not uti-lize that," said Var. "We cansee which are the harshestdays and accordingly decideholidays."The Association said that thegovernment takes a look atother countries in Europe and America where similar or 

harsh weather conditions pre-vail, but they have minimalwinter holidays. "Thosecountries term winter as themost unproductive season, sotheir principle is, the morewe utilize it inside class-rooms the better it is," said Var. "Otherwise during thesevacations majority of stu-dents end up doing nothing inhomes or simply continueattending classes at coachingcentres."The association said thatextended winter classes willalso help build winter com- pliant infrastructure atschools.
