Happiness among those living in child protection units, old age homes, Nari Seva Sadan, Shakti Sadan and special homes

The flight of poetry captures those moments which are not even in the fortune of everyone to see. Poetry reaches even those helpless people who have no one to listen to their sighs. Nowadays the days of festivals are going on. Remembering the lines of an unknown poet:

वो रोज रोज नहीं जलता साहब, 

मंदिर का दिया थोड़े ही है गरीब का चूल्हा है!

Wo Roz Roz Nahin Jalta Sahib, 

Mandir Ka Diya Thode hai, Greeb Ka Chulha Hai!

It doesn't burn everyday sir, the lamp of the temple is not enough, it is the poor's stove!

But in such a situation what to do when the festivals come? How to get rid of helplessness? What should one do if one's pocket is empty during the festival season? Realizing this pain, Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu has taken the essence of these people. The state government has reached out to these people so that their festivals do not fade away. 

Government provides Rs. 500 festive grant to residents of Model Children Home, Nari Seva Sadan and Institute for Children with Special Abilities.

After taking the oath as the Chief Minister the very day he visited Balika Ashram and directed officials to provide all the necessary facilities to the students of this Ashram.  After assuming the reins of state the present State Government with a target to serve the humanity and for the betterment of people has taken many ambitious steps which would ensure the development of weaker section of society and would also strengthen their economic condition.      

Secretary Social Justice and Empowerment M. Sudha Devi today here said that in compliance to Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu's announcement to provide Festive grant to all Child Care Institutions, Old Age Homes, Nari Seva Sadan, Shakti Sadan, Special Homes etc. during his visit to Model Children Homes, Nari Seva Sadan and Institute for Children with Special Abilities at Dhalli on Wednesday the Government has issued notification to provide Rs. 500 to each resident of these institutions during festivals as festive grant.

52 die in Chamba bus mishap

42-seater vehicle had 100 on board when it fell into a gorge

Shimla, August 11

At least 52 persons were killed and 40 injured when an overcrowded private bus rolled down into a gorge near Rajera village, around 10 km from Chamba today.

There were around 100 passengers in the 42-seater vehicle that was on its way from Dularha to Chamba. Many of them were perched on the rooftop.

While 39 persons died on the spot, 13 succumbed to their injuries in a hospital at Chamba. While 34 injured passengers have been hospitalised at Chamba, six seriously injured have been referred to the Tanda Medical College in Kangra.

Most of the passengers belonged to Kuranh, Dularha, Gagla and Rajera villages. They were all heading for the Minjar fair which began at Chamba yesterday. The bus was overloaded as the state road transport corporation had withdrawn its morning bus service due to weekend holidays. The driver of the bus was among those killed. The conductor, however, had a miraculous escape.

One of the few survivors, Vijay Kumar, said the mishap occurred after a front wheel of the bus came off. He was standing at the rear door and managed to jump out of the bus before it fell into the gorge. An eyewitness, however, claimed that the accident happened after the rear tyre of the vehicle burst.

SP Chamba, Kuldeep Sharma, said an FIR has been registered on the basis of Vijay Kumar’s statement. He said there were reports that the bus was quite old and the police was trying to ascertain if it was fit for plying.

The locals blamed the lack of adequate bus services for overcrowding, which leads to mishaps in most cases.

They said there was no reason for the state road transport corporation to withdraw services during the Minjar fair, when more buses were needed to cope with the rush of commuters. According to sourses, the corporation, which has been incurring loss of around Rs 5 per bus per km, usually scales down its operations on holidays to curtail losses.

Speaker Tulsi Ram, who hails from Chamba district, and local MLA BK Chauhan supervised the relief and rescue operations along with Deputy Commissioner Sunil Chaudhary and SP Sharma.
