Our on line directory and joint front

During last seven months, a new zeal and a new spirit to do something is visible. Such chapters in human society gave birth to coffee culture,to think about others etc. The only pitfall is a lure of money,pulf and power or absolute power.

Our east Delhi was a picture of neglect. All developmental activities were in central zone.After partition of country,Delhi witnessed unprecedented boom in population and hence mushrooming of human clusters. Now it is for us to make east Delhi at least at par with other parts of Delhi.

Your efforts are in correct direction. Any DELAY IN KICK STARTING JOINT FRONT OR launch of on line directory will be a set back. I pray god to give wings to your efforts to lead us.

NEW DELHI: Apollo hospitals in association with the Times of India on Wednesday launched the `Billion Hearts Beating' campaign an initiative to create awareness about prevention of heart diseases in the capital. The campaign was launched by Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit, who pledged the government's support for it.

No Protection To Tenant If He Ignores Order To Pay Dues Under Delhi Rent Control Act

A Tenant who fails to pay rent despite a court order cannot seek legal protection against eviction from the premises, the Delhi High Court has ruled.

Justice V. B. Gupta passed the order while dismissing a tenant's plea seeking setting aside of an eviction order passed against him by the court of rent controller.

The Delhi Rent Control Act grants protection to the defaulter tenant if the due amount is deposited.
However, the right is taken away if the tenant defaults for the second time, the court said.

" When the tenant makes a second default, no protection can be given against eviction," the court said in an order delivered Friday.

Now,Get Traffic Update SMS To Beat Jams,Delhi Traffic Police Start Unique Free Service For Commuters

Getting traffic updates through FM radio is now a thing of the past. Traffic updates are now just an SMS away. And it will be round-the-clock.

After gaining success through Facebook and Twitter, Delhi Traffic Police have now started a unique service on traffic update through text messages.A dedicated team from the unit has been involved for this job, said Ajay Chadha, special CP (traffic).

The method is simple. One has to just send an SMS `join dtp' to 09219592195 from one's mobile to register with the mobile helpline service.

 
After that, as and when there is any traffic jam due to any reason -road accident, rainfall or road construction -he will be intimated through SMS.

"This is a free service by Delhi Traffic Police. This will also alert commuters in general and motorists in particular about any traffic diversions or advisory in the city," said Chadha.

"The SMS service is more instant than updates on Facebook or Twitter. Motorists while driving generally cannot access Facebook or Twitter to get traffic update," said a senior officer.
He added that initially 40,000 people are expected to register themselves.
