It can only happen in India where a person who does not know abc of yoga has been awarded feted and made the Director of a Yoga Centre.

strange but it is not very far, it is here in the University of jammu that the director of the yoga centre (approved by the UGC) has no qualification to be at the said post.

In a bizarre move however which rubs salt to the injury, the director has reportedly decided do away with expert yoga teachers and appoint greenhorns.
Sources however say that he wants a chap from SMVD here at JU.

People however are of the opinion that instead of shunting the teachers, the director should be shown the door.

however it appears unlikely for he is well connected and high profile. but god will do justice.

In a positive turn of events Prof amitabh Mattoo has been granted extension for three years. the move has been welcomed by academia and the civil society.

This gives prof Mattoo another three years to turnaround the academics and research at the university which needs complete overhauling.
The need of the hour is to put those people in right position who are sincere towards students.

terror comes to standstill

Wounded ISI looking for survival in Reasi-Mahore
ABHISHEK
JAMMU, Jan 17—
Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) has received a massive jolt in Reasi-Mahore areas after the laying off arms by its top launching commander. Surrendered, Mohd Kalu, was an important cog of ISI’s network and a key operative of Harkat-ul-Mujahidin outfit.
An expert guide, Kalu, intelligence sources revealed, had facilitated exfilteration of over 150 youths to PoK. "But since Kalu’s surrender on December 2, last year, the exfiltration from Budhal, Chasana, Kotranka, Reasi, Gool and Mahore areas has come to a stand still," source said.
As fallout of his surrender, source said, "Pak based terror organizations have been forced to shift their hideouts." They (terrorists) are being given new communication codes so that could not get intercepted by security agencies of India, source disclosed. An expert guide and motivator, "Kalu had won the loyalty of his mentors across the border, by outfoxing the security forces time and again."
Talking to this reporter, Mohd Kalu, (code name Shabir Ghaznavi) admitted that he took around 150 boys across the border. "My job as the launching commander was to get youth across and back as trained terrorists from camps in Pakistan."
Over why he had surrendered, he said, "I was fed up with constant running around and with fear of death." "I had lost faith in the cause upheld by the Pak sponsored terrorists", he revealed, stating, most of the foreign militants "are hardened criminals, who indulge in rape, molestation and pillage in our land."
Further, "this is not Jehad," admits Kalu, once a feared terror operative and top operations man of the terror network.
Admitting there has been a perceptible decrease in the movement of terrorists across the border particularly in the Reasi-Mahore area, SP Reasi Jagdish Lal Sharma said, "Kalu’s surrender has broken the back of militancy in the area."
Meanwhile, Pawan Parihar, Dy SP, Reasi said, "From only one surrender each in 2001 and 2002, the number has increased to 16 in 2004." In the first week of January 2005 two more gave up arms, he added.
Surrender of Kalu and the fencing on the border has proved to be a major setback to the terrorists, SP Sharma claims.

Balol bridge on the RS Pura road has really made life difficult for the people of the RS Pura and the entire border belt which is dependent on the entire road.

People say that around 3 ministers are representing the area in the Mufti cabinet but they are just sleeping aound with people facing difficulties.
Suman Bhagat, Gharu Ram and Trilok Singh Bajwa daily pass through their road but people allege are busy making hay while the sun shine.
Numerous vehicles includiing trucks,buses cars and tongas are stranded as both sides on the bridge have a small road opening which inhibits the movement of the vehicles.

" productive hours are lost, many engagements are missed, people lose important business all because the government is not ready to spend some money", said Vijay of RS Pura.

Rural infrasturure is in shambles and instead of pursuing thier own agendas the government should construct a bridge and solve the problems of the people, he adds.

Abhishek Jammu January 3
Thanks to all the news papers and electronic media of Jammu which has printed our photos on prominent places, for we were awarded by the Rasa javedani Society for promoting Urdu. whatever we did for Urdu and what we did not is different thing. But getting an awards and being recognized was a great thing.

In a sytem where motivation is scarce and work is considered to be a slough it was nice being recognized and feted. Perhaps the RJML Soceity could do well to make this award more prized and special. " For there is an ample space in the city of temples to recognize the excellent work being done by young journalists ofcourse under the guidance of the seniors".

One thing which is important is that "we should learn to appreciate each other and instead of running down each others work we should appreciate the same and motivate our breteren to produce better results". ofcourse this professioh is quite individualistic and needs people to be aggressive for jobs are scarce and supply of people is more. But we must not forget that perhaps the space is les on the peak but just below it there is a lot of place for all of us. not every one can be Shekhar Gupta but hard work and dedication could no less help us in realizing our potential.
