Haryana Sarvjan Party’s rally in Jind on Oct 1: Arya

CHANDIGARH: Former MLA and Haryana Sarvjan Party president Roshan Lal Arya on Friday said that the party would hold a statelevel rally in Jind on October 1.

Arya had formed the Haryana Sarvjan Party about a year ago at the time of the Jat reservation stir in the state.

Briefing newspersons here, Arya, a former MLA from Chhachhrauli (Yamunanagar district) on the then Lok Dal ticket, said that the rally would be a show of strength of non-Jat communities of Haryana. He said that BJP MP from Kurukshetra Raj Kumar Saini, who has been vocal against quota for Jats would be among the main speakers at the rally.

Repeatedly saying that he was not against Jats, Arya, who had also faced police case for alleged hate speech against Jats last year, said that his struggle was for equal opportunities and representation to all the communities, as per constitution of India.

He sought a white paper on government jobs given to people belonging to different castes and communities. He went on to demand a Saman Avsar Ayog (equal opportunities commission) to give equal opportunity to members of all castes and communities in jobs and other facilities. He hailed the Punjab and Haryana high court for its recent stay on reservation in jobs and educational institutions to Jats and five other castes. LONDON Balwinder Singh, the Indian-origin director of a Worcestershire-based pizza company, has been disqualified as a company director for diverting funds he had secured from loans to a partnership in which he had a personal interest, officials said.

The Insolvency Service said Singh, 58, was the sole registered director of Charnwood Foods Ltd but an investigation found that he “unreasonably caused payments of at least £205,000 to the partnership he had a personal interest in”.

The company went into liquidation with no assets on August 26, 2015, owing an estimated £358,816 to creditors, of which £308,233 was owed to a bank as loan. Singh’s misconduct, accepted by him, was that he breached his fiduciary duties as director of the company when he made the payments that were at the risk of, and to the detriment of, the company and its creditors.

He also failed to deliver adequate accounting records to show that such payments were reasonable, the service said.

A disqualification order has the effect that without specific permission of a court, a person with a disqualification cannot act as a director of a company; take part, directly or indirectly, in the promotion, formation or management of a company or limited liability partnership; and be a receiver of a company’s property.
