Haamid Bukhari Represents ROC JK In Review Workshop On Prosecution Matters

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: The Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs, Manesar hosted a two-day workshop on March 1-2 that was presided over by the Secretary to the Government of India, Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
The performance of all ROCs and Regional Directors was assessed during the workshop by the Additional Secretary and DG of Corporate Affairs, according to the statement, and a review of the “Court Cases” and “Prosecution issues” was performed.
The focus was put on bringing all Inquiry, Inspection, and Investigation matters to a logical conclusion. These lawsuits involve violations of several provisions of the Companies Act of 1956 and the Companies Act of 2013. If a prosecution is brought for an offence, the outcome of such conclusive exercise is either a punishment imposed by ROC through the adjudication procedure or a conviction by the lower court.
The Northern Region was represented by ROC NCT of Delhi & Haryana’s Pranay Chaturvedi as the evaluation of the prosecution issues started there. Haamid Bukhari, who represented ROC Jammu Kashmir, informed the senior administrators of the status of the various cases for which the prosecution had been brought either in the courts of CJMs or in the specialised courts of Additional Sessions Judges, Anti Corruption.
Most of these concerns pertain to cases that have already been the subject of an investigation or inquiry. All the offices and regions were reviewed after the Northern Region, one by one.
It is worth noting that lately, ROCs have begun acting quickly to punish white-collar criminals and defaulting businesses for breaking the law. The fine issued against certain large corporations by the ROC Offices in Jammu and Srinagar, which totals more than Rs 50–60 lakh for violations of secretarial compliances, is deserving of note in this procedure.

Junk Food And Sedentary Lifestyle Behind Increasing Childhood Obesity In Kashmir: DAK

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: The Doctors Association Kashmir (DAK) has expressed concern over the increasing number of obesity cases among children in the Kashmir valley. On World Obesity Day, Dr Nisar ul Hassan highlighted that junk food and a sedentary lifestyle are the primary factors contributing to this issue. According to the latest National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5), the percentage of obesity among children in Kashmir has increased from 2.1% in NFHS-4 (conducted in 2015-16) to 3.4% in NFHS-5 (conducted in 2019-20).
Dr Hassan emphasized that the shift towards junk food, which has replaced homemade meals, is a major contributing factor. Children are consuming fast food like burgers, pizzas, chips, sugary drinks, and frozen ready meals. He also highlighted that television advertisements targeting children and junk food sold in school cafeterias are promoting unhealthy dietary habits. Furthermore, high dependency on smartphones has led to children leading sedentary lifestyles, which is another contributing factor.
Childhood obesity has been linked to several health conditions such as diabetes, asthma, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, high cholesterol, joint problems, and liver disease. Dr Nisar stressed the need for parents to encourage their children to adopt healthy eating habits and participate in sports during leisure time to prevent obesity. Preventing obesity helps protect children’s health in the present and future.
Dr Nisar called for increased awareness and action to eliminate obesity, which is becoming a major health crisis. He also emphasized the importance of educating parents to prevent their children from becoming obese.

Early Elections and Restoration Of Statehood Way Forward: AS Dulat

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Ex-RAW chief AS Dulat has suggested early elections and the restoration of statehood as the way forward for Jammu and Kashmir. In an interview with Hindustan Times at an event in Chandigarh, Dulat stated that empathy is required for the region, just like the border-sensitive state of Punjab.
Dulat further stated that Kashmiris have reconciled themselves to the abrogation of Article 370, and the issue is now alive only in political rhetoric and the case in the Supreme Court. Since the situation in the Valley is under control, it is time to move forward politically.
Dulat suggested that if Prime Minister Narendra Modi were to visit Srinagar and announce elections and restore statehood, he would win over Kashmiris. Kashmiris want peace with honor and dignity, and the biggest fear for the past 25 years has been what will happen if they are reduced to a minority in their own land.
Dulat also defined Kashmiriyat as togetherness and cited the crowds that joined Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra on its last leg in Anantnag. He reiterated the message for New Delhi that Kashmir needs a leader who can manage the Valley and Delhi and understand both. He placed his trust in traditional mainstream parties of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly NC leader and former chief minister Farooq Abdullah.
“Rahul promoted the idea of India in Kashmir,” he said, reiterating the message for New Delhi. “Kashmir needs a leader who can manage the Valley and Delhi. A leader who understands both. NC leader and former chief minister Farooq Abdullah can bridge dil ki doori and dilli ki doori,” he said, reposing faith in traditional mainstream parties of Jammu and Kashmir.
