Sd/- Registrar No: IUST/Reg/Admissions/17/241 Dated: 21-08-2017Errors & Omissions Excepted)- 9 yrs on, Trikanjan villagers await completion of footbridge ALTAF BABA Baramulla, Aug 21: Nine years on, the residents of Trikanjan village in Boni- yar tehsil of Baramulla district await completion of a footbridge by the depart- ment of R&B. According to reports, the department of R&B started work on a footbridge in the village in the year 2008. The foot bridge was being con- structed on a stream, divid- ing the village in two parts. However, soon after initi- ating construction work on the bridge, the department left the work halfway with- out any reason. The locals were hopeful that work on the bridge might start soon, however, nine years on, the department of Roads and buildings Uri didn't resume the work, with the result the local population continues to live with sufferings. The Trikanjan village is an important village in Tehsil Boniyar. The trekking through this village can lead to Gulmarg area of the dis- trict. The village is bisected by the famous Hapathkhaie Nallah, source of which is Hellipathri in Gulmarg. Noted author and colum- nist, Raja Nazar Bonyari, who hails from Trikanjan village, while talking to Greater Kashmir said that in absence of a foot bridge, the locals are facing enor- mous hardships, even stu- dents and patients have to walk extra two kilometres to reach the school. He said the situation worsens in rainy season. The executive engineer, R&B Uri Baldev singh, said that the work on the bridge was stopped due to paucity of funds and once funds are released the work will be resumed. Harassment of eves continues at workplaces SHAFAQ SHAH Srinagar, Aug 21: The assurances of the authorities notwithstanding, the women continue to experience harassment at workplaces in one way or the other. A woman teacher recently went on a long leave on her husband’s advice after a senior colleague of hers started harassing her to the extent of stalking her on social media websites. The colleague had first started with seeking her mobile phone number. This teacher’s case is not an incident in isolation. Harassment of women at workplaces is rife but because of the absence of the internal complaint committees meant for prevention and redress of harassment cases at workplac- es, the culprits go unpunished. In 2016, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti had asked all administrative secretaries and district magistrates to ensure that internal complaint com- mittees will be constituted in all subordinate offices and at the district level within one month. But a year on, these com- mittees are yet to be consti- tuted by the deputy commis- sioners. The administrative department also has not set up the committees. The situation is no differ- ent in the private sector. A woman who is work- ing in a private bank said on the condition of anonymity, “These days you WhatsApp things related to your work to your bosses and then they (some of them) start texting you late in the night and ask about your relationship status, and if they find you single, then there is no limit to their nonsensical talk. And if you feel like complaining to your higher ups, very soon you realise they are all the same.” The cases of harassment of women at workplace are so underreported that in the year 2016-17, the State Commission for Women received only one case of harassment of a work- ing woman. A Public Interest Litigation was also filed in the High Court seeking implementation of the Protection of Sexual Harass- ment of Women at Workplace Act 2013, which makes local as well as internal complaint committees mandatory. All attempts to contact the Divisional Commissioner went in vain. International youth day held at KU Srinagar, Aug 21: The international youth day was held at Kashmir University on Monday. It was organised by Red Ribbon Club of department of Students Welfare in asso- ciation with J&K State AIDS Prevention and Control Society. A poster-making compe- tition, collage competition and blood donation camp were organised to mark the day whose theme was ‘youth building peace’. 100 student volunteers participated in the blood donation camp while 80 students partici- pated in the poster-making and collage competitions. In his message, vice-chan- cellor Prof Khurshid Iqbal Andrabi said such events lead to overall personality development of students and shall be held at the Univer- sity campuses regularly. Registrar, Prof Khur- sheed A Butt, who was chief guest at the valedictory cer- emony, said: “the peace that we are trying to find in the outside world is within us and once we start realising this, we shall be at peace with ourselves and with others as well.” Earlier, dean School of Social Sci- ences Prof Asifa Jan inau- gurated a day-long blood donation camp. Dean Students Wel- fare Prof GN Khaki wel- comed the participants and informed them about vari- ous activities being under- taken by the DSW. In the poster competition, the first prize was bagged by Muhammad Mommin Rafiqui from Burn Hall School while the second and third prizes went to Afifa Makhdoomi from Faculty of Music and Fine Arts and Iqra Altaf from Sanctorum College of Education. One special prize in the category was won by Anha Sameer from Green Valley Educa- tional Institute. In collage-making com- petition, the first prize was won by Shafiya Shafi from department of Psychology while the second and third prizes were won by Hyfa Hameed from Amar Singh College and Taimum Qaiser from department of Math- ematics, KU. One special prize in the category was won by Sheikhzada Faisal Zahoor from Degree College Dooru. Cultural officer Shahid Ali Khan conducted the proceedings of the competi- tion while Rajesh Sharma, assistant Director J&K State AIDS Prevention and Con- trol Society and Mukhtar Ahmad Bala were also pres- ent on the occasion. Iftikar Jaffar, Shafi Chamman and Naushad Gayoor were the judges for the competition. The event was sported by Gayoor Art Foundation, SAAYA NGO and the Kites Group. OBC deputation calls on G A Mir Bandipora people seek potable water EJAZ-UL-HAQ BHAT Bandipora, Aug 21: Resi- dents of several localities of Bandipora district on Monday blocked roads to protest against shortage of drinking water in their respective areas. The residents of Kaloosa and Nathpora blocked Bandi- pora-Sopore road near Kaloo- sa Bridge to protest against water shortage, thereby ham- pering traffic movement for hours together. Hundreds of vehicles including school buses were stranded. “We have been living without drinking water since past one month and authorities don't pay heed to our woes.

The protestors chanted slogans against the local leg- islator. Meanwhile, residents of Nusoo locality also staged a protest demonstration against water shortage in the area since past two weeks.

He said it is this problem which poses a serious threat to Social fabric and state’s policy as the youth is losing direction as well as faith in the system.

9 yrs on, Trikanjan villagers await completion of footbridge
ALTAF BABA
Baramulla, Aug 21: Nine years on, the residents of Trikanjan village in Boni-yar tehsil of Baramulla district await completion of a footbridge by the depart-ment of R&B.
According to reports, the department of R&B started work on a footbridge in the village in the year 2008. The foot bridge was being con-structed on a stream, divid-ing the village in two parts.
However, soon after initi-ating construction work on the bridge, the department left the work halfway with-out any reason. The locals were hopeful that work on the bridge might start soon, however, nine years on, the department of Roads and buildings Uri didn't resume the work, with the result the local population continues to live with sufferings.
The Trikanjan village is an important village in Tehsil Boniyar. The trekking through this village can lead to Gulmarg area of the dis-trict. The village is bisected by the famous Hapathkhaie Nallah, source of which is Hellipathri in Gulmarg.
Noted author and colum-nist, Raja Nazar Bonyari, who hails from Trikanjan village, while talking to Greater Kashmir said that in absence of a foot bridge, the locals are facing enor-mous hardships, even stu-dents and patients have to walk extra two kilometres to reach the school.
He said the situation worsens in rainy season.
The executive engineer, R&B Uri Baldev singh, said that the work on the bridge was stopped due to paucity of funds and once funds are released the work will be resumed.
Harassment of eves continues at workplaces
SHAFAQ SHAH
Srinagar, Aug 21: The assurances of the authorities notwithstanding, the women continue to experience harassment at workplaces in one way or the other.
A woman teacher recently went on a long leave on her husband’s advice after a senior colleague of hers started harassing her to the extent of stalking her on social media websites. The colleague had first started with seeking her mobile phone number.
This teacher’s case is not an incident in isolation. Harassment of women at workplaces is rife but because of the absence of the internal complaint committees meant for prevention and redress of harassment cases at workplac-es, the culprits go unpunished.
In 2016, Chief Minister
Mehbooba Mufti had asked all administrative secretaries and district magistrates to ensure that internal complaint com-mittees will be constituted in all subordinate offices and at the district level within one month.
But a year on, these com-mittees are yet to be consti-tuted by the deputy commis-
sioners. The administrative department also has not set up the committees.
The situation is no differ-ent in the private sector.
A woman who is work-ing in a private bank said on the condition of anonymity, “These days you WhatsApp things related to your work to your bosses and then they
(some of them) start texting you late in the night and ask about your relationship status, and if they find you single, then there is no limit to their nonsensical talk. And if you feel like complaining to your higher ups, very soon you realise they are all the same.”
The cases of harassment of women at workplace are so underreported that in the year 2016-17, the State Commission for Women received only one case of harassment of a work-ing woman.
A Public Interest Litigation was also filed in the High Court seeking implementation of the Protection of Sexual Harass-ment of Women at Workplace Act 2013, which makes local as well as internal complaint committees mandatory.
All attempts to contact the Divisional Commissioner went in vain.
