Hussein further said that Choudhary also failed to keep his promise to solve the problem of water crisis of his ward. “I am really upset with Choudhary’s attitude and therefore I have given him 24-hour ultimatum to take action against Vinay and to solve water problem in my area,” Hussein said. He has further cautioned Choudhary that he would stage dharna in the latter office if his demands would not be met.
When contacted, Hussein informed that Choudhary had promised him to start a filling point in Amasivni from Thursday afternoon and to furnish him a copy of FIR against Vinay. “The entire ward is facing acute water crisis but Choudhary is apathetic towards this glaring problem,” he added.
Hussein further informed that Vinay had distributed illegal tap connections at the rate of Rs 10,000 to about 20 residents of VV Vihar Colony.
“However, soon these residents realised that they had been deceived. They complained to Vinay that they were not getting adequate water from their tap connections. Vinay asked them to pay Rs 100 per month and also took additional repairing charges from them. The irked residents complained in written about Vinay to Commissioner Choudhary but he did not take any action,” Hussein said.
Notably, Hussein and the residents of ward had blocked the traffic at Vidhan Sabha road some 20 days ago with their demand of continuous supply of water in their area. They had also sought action against Vinay. “At that time, Choudhary had promised that he would solve water problem in five days and would take appropriate action against Vinay, but nothing happened in out favour,” Hussein said.

Naxalism can end if we will win trust of tribals: DGP
Raipur, May 26, 2010
Naxalism from Chhattisgarh can end if the state police would succeed in winning the trust of tribals living in Bastar. The words were expressed by DGP Vishwaranjan who thinks that the support of the people residing in the naxal-hit areas would play vital role in uprooting the Maoists from the state.
“We first need to identify the exact locations of naxals which is only possible when the people of Bastar would help us,” Vishwaranjan said.
Pointing out towards the naxal attacks on security personnel, Special Police Officer (SPOs) and innocent people in Chintalnar and Sukma, Vishwaranjan said the Maoists had been sympathetic with the Bastarians and their sole motive was to overpower people through violence.
He also appreciated the support extended by the SPOs in combating naxals and said they were equally efficient and skillful in handling the tough situations.
He said the naxals were severely upset with the campaign against them. He asked all the police personnel, SPOs and paramilitary jawans should remain alert as the Maoists could attempt to attack them as well the common mass to create terror.
