NRI count causes a scare

Even when the government conducts economic surveys, the figures are often misleading from the public.

Darshan Singh, a farmer from Chhapar, said, We are scared that the government might be collecting the data to levy some special tax. People will not be forthcoming with complete information in this case.

Jugminder Grewal, SDM, entrusted with collecting data for the East Ludhiana, Dehlon, Koom Kalan and Jassowal subdivisions, said, We are nearly complete with the data. We are not closing the books because there are a number of people who have not yet come forward with all the details of information. We are meeting people and informing them that data was a mere information bank.

Another senior official said, We are not very clear about the details and reasons for the data collection.

Cruel defeat snuffs out European dream

IN THE end, the emotions were not so much mixed as scrambled to the four corners of Hampden. We had seen Italy score in 70 seconds, we had seen them dominate the early minutes with some chilling football that not only took the fire out of the home support but also shocked Alex McLeish's team to the core. But in the final stages of the game it was the world champions who had the heat coming on them, their lead wiped-out by a scrambled Barry Ferguson goal just after the hour, their assurance of before in danger of being stripped away. With ten minutes remaining, Scotland drove forward once again, the substitute Kenny Miller linking with James McFadden and sending the most delicious ball across the Italian penalty area. The Azzurri were at sixes and sevens, Fabio Cannavaro and Gianluca Zambrotta, two of the game's pre-eminent defenders from two of the world's most glamorous clubs, were over-run.
