Dear friends,

You must be aware that HP Government has recently passed a societies
registration bill which is step curb the autonomy of societies and
particularly NGOs working in Himachal. The law has been framed without
any consultation and discussion in any public forum.

Planning commission had framed a policy for Voluntary Organizations and
the new bill is no where reflecting the direction set by Government of
India. So we are seeking advice from our friends especially lawyers in
the network who can interpret the bill keeping in mind the VO policy.
Based on that we would want to launch a web campaign against the bill
which is trying to take away the basic right of association from the
citizens.

If you are interested to participate in this campaign and contribute
your but please reply to me i will forward you the two documents.

with warm regards

Write for Himachal , become a grassroot journalist !

Him Vani or HimVani.com is an effort to be a think-tank for Himachal by
the means of grassroots journalism.

What is grassroots journalism?

It is an effort on the lines of citizen journalism, where citizens
become reporters. Citizens send in stories. But we love to call it
grassroots journalism as we intend not to cover hardcore news. We leave
that to the mainstream media. We love to call our effort as grassroots
journalism because our initiative heavily has a social aspect, where the
journalists just don’t report, but come up with solutions. That however
does not mean, we do not cover mainstream news. We do, if we find if
it’s being reported for the first time. The idea is not to just throw
stats at the reader, but analyse what’s happening. For example…
everybody loves to talk about Himachal as Number one state in education.
Everyone loves to throw stats at the reader about the high literacy.
However, we want to tell the reader, what exactly is being done to
encourage education.

To know more about us log onto http://www.himvani.com

We would also like thank the moderator teams of Shimlahangout (Nityin)
and ApnaHimachal (Sanjeev Rana) yahoogroups for letting us promote
HimVani on their forums.

differently abled children in Himachal. The seminar is being inaugurated
by His Excellency the Governor of Himachal Pradesh, Mr Vishnu Sadashiv

on October 1.

To make the event a success, we request all of you to be a part of the
seminar and see how we all can help the differently abled children. The
event also gives an opportunity to be a part of the trade expo which

Appeal of Capt. Kalia's father to all Indian Citizens

Letter written by Dr. Kalia f/o Late Lt. Saurabh Kalia to: A.B.Vajpayee, Nawaz Sharif, K.R. Narayanan, V.P. Malik, George Fernandes

I am proud father of Amar Shaheed Lt. Saurabh Kalia of 4 JAT Regiment of the Indian Army who laid down his life at the prime age of 22 for the Nation while doing duty of guarding the frontiers at Kargil. The parents, the Indian Army but the whole nation lost a dedicated, honest and brave son. He was the first officer to detect and inform Pak intrusion. Pakistan captured him and his patrol party of 5 brave men alive on 15th May, 99 from our side of LOC. They were in their captivity for 3 weeks and subjected to unprecedented brutal torture as evident from their bodies handed over by Pakistan Army on 9th June, 99.They indulged in dastardly acts of burning bodies with cigarettes, piercing ears with hot rods, removing eyes before puncturing them, breaking most of the bones and teeth, chopping off various limbs and private organs of these soldiers besides inflicting unimaginable physical and mental tortures. They were shot dead ultimately. (A detailed postmortem report is with the Indian Army) This continued for about 22 days. Pakistan dared to humiliate India this way flouting all international norms. To what an extreme humanity can be degraded, Pakistan provided an example. However,the Indian soldiers did not break while undergoing all this unlimited barbarism. This speaks volumes of their patriotism, grit, determination, tenacity and valour and the whole nation should be proud of them. All over the country there is unprecedented anger and outrage at this tragedy. Sacrificing oneself for the nation is an honour every soldier would love to do but no parents, army or nation can accept what happened to these brave sons of India. I am afraid every parent would think twice to send their wards in the armed forces if we all fall short of our duty of safeguarding the PRISONERS OF WAR AND LET THEM MEET THE FATE OF LT. SAURABH KALIA. It may also send a demoralising signal to the Army personnel fighting for the Nation that our POWs in Pak cannot be taken care of. It is a matter of shame and disgust that most of Indian Human Rights Organisations by and large, showed apathy in this matter. Through this humble submission, may I appeal to all the civilised people irrespective of colour, caste, region, religion and political lineage to stir their conscience and rise to take this as a NATIONAL ISSUE? International Human Rights Organisations must be approached to expose and pressurise Pakistan to identify, book and punish all those who perpetrated this heinous crime to our men in uniform. If Pakistan is allowed to go unpunished in this case, everyone can imagine the consequences. This is the list of 5 other soldiers who preferred to die for the country rather than open their mouths in front of enemy.

Himachal for Himachalis? 

This post i hastily prepared as i had very little time over the week
end so please innore all the mistakes in it.


Its been vey tough  time for Mumbai , it was hit by heavy rains and
then many blasts, unfortunately I experienced both of them.
Rains caused total havoc in the city where as bomb caused panic.
I was in my office when at around 6.30 we herd the news about bomb
blast, one of my college was on phone with his friend who saw bomb
blast as it happened.
We searched on net endlessly but did not find anything on blast
until 7pm.
Sify had a link to CNBC webcast on its main page, but rediff was
first one to report the blast. Google news did not displayed blast
till next day.
I stayed in office till 10pm as trains were stoped, left my office
at Andheri only at 10, strange thing was that when I went to Andheri
station (which is one of the bussiest stations in Mumbai),
restaurants were open, and so I managed to get some food.
I took bus unto Bandra station. Throughout the way, people were
offering Glucose biscuit and water to people walking and busses, we
actually had to refuse rudely to people from giving us biscuits, guy
sitting next to me had 5 family packs with him by the time we got
down at Bandra.
I could not manage to get any thing at bandra station so I decided
to walk up to mahim where Hindustan Times has an office and my
cousin works there, which is almost 2Km from bandra. On my way many
taxi people stopped and offered me free ride, just they were not
headed in same direction as I was.
At Mahim, I took taxi and went home, amazingly taxi driver charged
me on meter and not `extra' what people tend to do in such situation.

Just like 90% of Mumbai I went back to office very next day. Usually
people do not talk in local trains in Mumbai, but on that day just
about everyone had story to tell and it was like you know one person
or another who just either missed the ill fated trains of was about
to board one.
One of my college friends missed one such train and was very scared,
he did not reported to his work till Monday.
Too much happened in last 10 days but nothing has changed for the
city, many have died but no channel was able to show blood neither I
saw any train parts on my way to office next day.

Dear members,

I am happy to announce our 5th offline meeting in Delhi. This meeting
will be help on 31st July (Sunday) at Himachal Bhawan. Time will be 3
PM . As most of members in Delhi are working so we have scheduled the
meet on Sunday. Hope to see lot of new faces who have joined the group
in past one year.This does not mean than old timers can excuse
themselves.

I do understand that getting out of home is bit difficult on a sunday
afternoon , specially for the members who have a 6 day work schedule ,
but i believe social development will not happen by sitting in our
drawing rooms or messaging on this board.

For the uninitiated the restaurant in Himachal Bhawan serves good
paneer pakodas with tea.

Kindly reply to me or write to Surender Dhaleta at dhaleta@...
with your phone number to confirm your participation.

with warm regards
