THE name of the Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) was changed to the Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP) when the BJP government came to power around six years ago. But, here in Kurukshetra, the signboard of Estate Officer, HSVP, Sector-4, Kurukshetra, still reads as "ESTATE OFFICE, HUDDA". Even the spelling of erstwhile HUDA has been wrongly written as HUDDA. The authorities should look into the matter and take appropriate action. — Rajiv Anand, Kurukshetra
Rain spells trouble for residents
A short spell of rain in Ambala City on Sunday has brought along miseries for residents of Sector-9. Water has stagnated near plot 208 and nearby areas. In the absence of the drainage system, water gets accumulated even with a brief spell of rain and it takes at least a week to get things back to normal. The matter has been brought to the notice of the Municipal Corporation on several occasions, but in vain. The new civic body should now look into such issues on priority. — Gian P Kansal, Ambala City
Speed limit shall not be ignored
IT is a matter of grave concern that 43 per cent of road accidents in Gurugram district were due to speeding. The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority has now proposed a reduction in speed limit on all highways and connecting roads in Gurugram. The defaulters must keep it mind that speed thrills, but kills. — Subhash C Taneja, Gurugram
Need to end ongoing stalemate
WITH reference to news item 'Firm steps' if January 4 talks fail, warn unions' published in these columns on January 2, it is highly disturbing to observe that farmers have openly threatened to shut Haryana malls, pumps and carry out a tractor march on the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway on January 6. While one can't but fully sympathise with the agitating farming community over several issues so close to their heart, but one fails to comprehend any rationale behind the blocking of various national highways at Delhi borders, which serve as the lifeline for the adjoining industrial units. Needless to say, our nations' economic/industrial growth has run into rough weather and people at large are being put to unimaginable hardships. The government should urge the farmers to immediately vacate all highways. It should also ensure that the proposed tractor march does not take place. — SK Gupta, Panchkula
