Jeweller shot dead .......................

Dear Mr. Vohra ji,

It is really shocking and shows how life has become so cheap for the thugs etc. There is no safety and security of people and their properties. Rule of law-breakers is widely prevailing and there is no fear of punishment and they are bold enough that they would not caught or nabbed.  This is all due to our low-morality and lack of unity and feeling of oneness. We have become so self-centered and selfish, we hardly bother about our neighbours. No more preachings and fear of God! We have reached or reaching a 'jungle raj'! There is no rule of law and Police, mainly due to acute shortage and guarding the so called VIPs, aam aadmi are suffering and will continue to suffer. You will be shocked to learn that at the innumerable of marriages that take place at the CBT ground near Surajmal Vihar, rampant thefts are taking place and for the last two days in succession jewelries of both brides and bridegrooms have been looted by unknown miscreants! At one place jewels worth a few lakhs have been lost forever and there is no clue! Time is not far of when dacoits will knock at your door and snatch whatever they find with dire consequences.  We have to face it!  What is the remedy? No technological devises will solve the problem. Any solutions! Let the readers suggest remedies to this rampant malady!?

With regards,

TK Balu

can we read without light

Sir, a blind cannot read without light, a crowd cannot achieve any success without a leader and a nation cannot fight eradicate corruption without WILL POWER.
High officers are suffering from lure of money and gold.
Could not imagine that a CMD OF PUBLIC SECTOR WILL BE CAUGHT WITH TEN KG OF GOLD.
WE MUST EVOLVE SYSTEM OF QUICK DISPOSAL OF SUCH CASES.
LOOK.AROUND EUROPE or other continents.
Guilty are punished without fear and delay.
Here even heinous crimes.like murder in crowded market of krishan nagar may not be solved or criminal punished in ten years.
We fail to install CCTV which could help to reduce traffic related offences.
Our intellectuals are in deep.slumber
our netas are hand in gloves with money looters

Jeweller shot dead in Krishna Nagar .....

Dear Vohra ji,

 

It is really shocking even to hear such incidents.  This incident of dacoity has taken place in a crowded market and that to in a day light.  The main question is that the dacoits are so dareing and do not have the fear of whatsoever nature of the police or public.  If such like situation continues to prevail, what will be the future of this country.  Where the law abiding person will be living?  Imagine, if this daring incident has happened in a very old and reputed colony, what will be the fate of new colonies in the NCR.  What the Police is doing?  What for Beat Officers are posted?  

 

 

I remember, in one of the meetings with the ACP at Geeta Colony Police Station, the representatives of the Krishan Nagar Shopkeepers Association clearly indicated that the intention of Police officials deployed in the market is to mint money rather than providing security to general public or the shopkeepers.  They (Accociation) were against the encroachment on the footpaths by anybody and requested to take stringent action against this violation.  We do not have the system to have a check antecedents of the Rehariwala or Patriwala.  Who knows who is making planning of the Dacoity.  The main question is whether the polcie, politicians etc are sincere to eradicate corruption, encroachment of public land, which is one of the root cause of such incidents?

 

Regards.

Stop Traffic, Claim Police Won’t Take Action Against Criminals Unless Paid Bribes

Dwaipayan Ghosh | TNN

New Delhi: A day after a 29-yearold jeweller was murdered by four armed assailants inside his shop during a robbery in Krishna Nagar, east Delhi, RWAs and trader associations hit the road, protesting against the police inability to protect them. The traders shut down all shops in the Lal Quarter area for the entire day. 

    “We blocked traffic on Road 57 (Karkardooma Court-Anand Vihar route) and sought alms from the people so that we can provide the money to the police. Until we grease their palms, they will not protect us,’’ said Sandip Kapoor, secretary of the Krishna Nagar Residents Welfare Association. The RWA claimed they collected Rs 500 by the evening. 

    As a result of the protest, traffic between Shahdara in northeast Delhi and Anand Vihar in east Delhi came to a standstill for over three-and-a-half hours. The effect was felt on Seelampur approach road and the Karkardooma crossing clogged even as cops diverted vehicles through other roads. Schoolchildren, returning home, suffered worst of the jams and Times City saw at least three school buses stuck on the road. 

 

    Locals said there is spurt in crime in the area. “Chain snatchings are a daily affair. Recently, there were three big robberies at Son Bazar, Jheel Kuranji and near Guddu Bakery. The owner of Gambhir Medical was shot at by unidentified assailants inside his shop in Jagatpuri. Khandelwal Medical Store was looted. My house has seen two burglaries in the last seven days. And people tell of a few criminals riding a black Pulsar who have struck four times in the past few days near Cross River Mall in Anand Vihar,” said B S Vohra, president of the east district RWA joint front. 

 

    On Thursday, a curfew like situation prevailed inside Krishna Nagar. With cops cracking down on two-wheelers, vendors and even rickshawpullers, Lal Quarters — usually bustling with energy — looked like a ghost town. Over 500 people had gathered outside the Gambhir residence. On Road 57 near Swarn cinema another 250 protestors kept traffic at bay. 

    A few metres ahead, cops from three police stations — Geeta Colony, Farsh Bazar and Krishna Nagar —kept a close watch. “We are not going to push things. Our investigation has proved that the accused knew their way through the narrow bylanes of Krishna Nagar. We are trying to find out the route taken by the accused. Their modus operandi hints at involvement of a couple of gangs who were active here earlier. We do not want to divulge the details right now,” said DCP (east) O P Mishra. 

    The police said they were investigating if the beat policing needs a change. “We are mulling ID cards for all outsiders who plan to enter this area. All two-wheelers will be checked and movement of those who have come out of jails recently will be checked. We will advise jewellers to put up CCTV cameras and locks to ensure their safety. Police will meet RWAs and traders associations in the coming days,’’ said Mishra. The probe of Gambhir’s murder case has been handed over to the special staff. Police sources said the SHO of Krishna Nagar might be suspended after being sent to the police lines.

UP IN ARMS: Traffic was badly affected in east Delhi due to the agitation by traders and other residents of Krishna Nagar.

Jeweller Shot Dead in Krishna Nagar

In a shocking incident in Krishna Nagar, a Jeweller was shot dead, last evening, in a daring Dacoity, in the  broad day light. Gaurav Gambhir, owner of Gambhir Jewellers, in the busy Lal quarter Market in Krishna nagar, died after he was shot at Three times. Three persons wearing helmets entered his shop and while escaping with the loot, the dacoits, shot him dead on his resistance. 

 

The incident was so shocking that soon all the markets were closed and the Traders as well Residents joined in the massive protests. Road number 57 was Jammed in the evening itself for half an hour and again today morning, a large number of protesters, blocked the road for over 3 hours. Dr Harshwardhan ( MLA ), Dr. Monga ( Councillor ), Mr Rajesh Gaud ( Councillor ) joined in this protest.

Krishna Nagar, The first DLF colony is a biggest retail market in East Delhi. While Lal Quarter has all type of routine shops, Chachi building is well known for woolens. Main Road has all the prominent Banks such as HDFC, ICICI, SBI, PNB, SBI B&J, UCO etc. along with many shops of Fridge & TV items. Central park has All the prominent Jewellers on one side & nearby.

The area, mostly crowded all the time has no proper security arrangements. No CCTV cameras, no screening of incomers, no proper checking of vehicles, makes it vulnerable. Chain snatching, Purse & Mobile snatching are so common incidents, which dont attract attention of even the residents. Incidents of Bikers removing Gold bangles have also occured here.

The area requires proper security arrangements, with CCTV cameras, with proper screening of incoming persons & vehicles, so that no more of lives and money is lost. We request to the area MP, MLA & Councillor to look into it very seriously.

Dear Mr. Vohra,

I feel, that the task you have taken up is as big as Mt. Everest, My experience in these social services for about 40 years have yet to see , some real , responsible, National minded or Social minded Govt. Officials, M.Ps, MLAs, and  Councillors in our Area of Mayur Vihar Phase-1 in Genreal and Pocket-3, in Particular.

Many a meetings of Bhagidari East, DCP / ACP Traffic / MLAs and RWAs may be in record only but without any appreciable out come. Most of the meetings were just for the sake of fill in the blanks, Nothing has changed in our Pocket  1,2,3,4 and 5. All BHAGWAN BHROSEY.

I wish you all the best TO YOU, IF you could brake the ICE.

Dear Sir,

We are facing the Traffic Jam problems as below :

1. On Mandir Marg, F Block at Road number 57, there is acute problem of Traffic jam due to the BIKERS from Inner lane, who intersect in between the Flow of traffic on every Green Light towards road number 57. This not only results into inconvenience to the flow of traffic as well causes chances of accidents & it was OBSERVED BY YOU during your visit of the area.

We REQUEST you to please ENHANCE the DIVIDER upto the end of the Road so that the Bikers could get no way there & the flow of traffic remains smooth.

2. The Mandir Marg road has a bottleneck in between Vaishay Dharam Shala & Happy school intersection. As a result there is HEAVY TRAFFIC JAM on this stretch during Peak Hours as well at any other time. Ambulances as well Fire Brigade vehicles can offen be viewed in the Jam. The Residents are suffering from Noise as well Air Pollution in addition to the constant Traffic Jams on the road.

We REQUEST you to Instal a Red Light at Happy School Intersection so that the Traffic could be managed properly to solve the problem of Traffic Jam to a greater extent.

We are now LOOKING for the necessary steps in this regard from your side so that RESIDENTS of the Area could get a Sigh of Relief.

Property Tax payment scam !

In the wake of a spate of scams and corruptions at the national level, the capital’s MCD is no exception!

It is shocking to bear and hear that the MCD’S Property Tax office at Geeta Colony had not maintained any records of the payments made by law-abiding citizens for over a period of ten years, albeit the people concerned have  made payment of the tax due regularly and always well in advance and fortunately kept a record of such receipts issued by the MCD Property Tax office itself!

It is seen from their records that no entries of the payments made have been entered in their ‘official registers’, so far on the pretext of ‘shortage of staff’ over a period of time and consequently those who have made the payments have been directed ‘officially’ to produce the original receipts and make available the photocopies of the same to them, so that they could now make necessary entries in the registers!  Can you, by any stretch of imagination in this 21^st century of e-governance, which we wish to implement, the records in the MCD’s Property Tax Office are still being maintained manually and that too had not been done for the last over 10 years!!

This Society (Anand Vihar) had protested against this state of affairs for not fault of their law-abiding citizens, who always make payment of dues to the Govt., whether electricity/water/gas/phone bills etc. periodically, so that their connections are not arbitrarily cut by such agencies and make payment of the property tax, as well, annually much before the target date fixed by the Govt.

For this purpose this Society had been arranging ‘collection camp’ annually for the last over 5 years in our Society’s premises by getting the officials of the Property Tax office, arrange to collect the duly filled-in forms from all residents and make them available to the officials concerned at the spot for which receipts are also given on the spot.  The money-starved MCD gets at one spot and on one day over Rs.10 lakhs towards property tax payment! In addition the visiting officials are ‘looked after well’ too! Despite all these efforts made by our Society, the MCD Property Tax office at Geeta Colony had not kept any record and made necessary entries towards payments on their official registers!!

It is strange and shocking for the ‘inaction’ of the babus in the Property Tax Office, the senior citizens and others in our colony have been made to suffer on this account who had been asked to produce the old receipts immediately!!! Can you imagine the amount of time, energy and mental torture faced by the residents!  Is there no remedy? Why aam aadmi should face all these onslaughts for such a callous and irresponsible action of the babus! Will the officials of the Property Tax office of the MCD reply to this scandal and scam? We don’t expect or hope unless and until some high-ups at the helm of affairs intervene in and set the matters right before the commencement of the ensuing financial year which is only a month ahead!
