Heartburn
A senior bureaucrat who was in the race for the post of Punjabs Chief Secretary,is in a sulking mood. At one time considered to be the favourite to succeed RI Singh,our man was pipped to post by SC Agrawal. Unhappy,at being denied the opportunity,he is avoiding all meetings being called by Agrawal. Mostly he sends his additional secretary on his behalf. It is not as if he has something against the new CS,it is just the proverbial slip between the cup and his slip,is causing a lot of heartburn for the time being.
Resthouse
While campaigning for Akali Dal candidate Jasjit Singh Bunny for the Banur by-election,Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal,halted briefly at Bristol resorts at Zirakhpur,for some rest. Interestingly,this property is owned by Surinder Pal Singh,who is SP (Vigilance) and is also the Investigation Officer (IO) in the corruption allegations against the Badal family.
No Resthouse
The Akali politicians and states top officials have made a beeline to Jalalabad,to please their party chief Sukhbir Singh Badal. But all of them face one problem. Being a moffusil centre,Jalalabad has limited options for lodgings. This is translating into brisk business opportunity for the hotel and guest house owners in Ferozepur (60km) and Fazilka (20 km).
Heating effect
This is the hottest issue in Haryana… hotter than the weather. If the Court does not entertainer the petition,the society will be disappointing ……by Adwocate…. . Adding new dimensions to every spelling,an advocate filed a petition demanding protection for a runaway couple. The new vocabulary was pointed out by the Judge to the advocate expressing his anguish over the language used in the petition. My Lord may ignored me pleaded the counsel.
Successful (wo)man
It is often stated that behind every successful man there is a woman,but in case of Mayor Kamlesh the reverse seems to be true. Her husband is there with her at every step. He is frequently present in her office,listens to the grievances of people and reportedly also gives his opinions on official matters. While the reason given for his presence is the Mayors ill health,his presence does not seem to go down well with the officials who are opposed to this interference.
Wrong number
In a series of advertisements the Panchkula police released recently,seeking information about whereabouts of missing property dealer Deepak Rai Saggar,a mobile telephone number was mentioned. The number belonged to a Deputy Superintendent of Police and anybody with any information on the missing man was requested to call on this number. But our DSP sahib doesnt pick up the number at all. Those close to him say that within the first two days itself,the DSP was inundated with so many calls that he went into the do not disturb mode.
