Leak cry in exam paper

Rumours of a leak in the mathematics and analogue communications question papers worried students appearing in the semester examinations of West Bengal University Technology on Monday. But after examining copies of the leaked papers, Santanu Basu, the university’s controller of examinations, said the papers bore no similarity with the original ones. Both the examinations were held according to schedule.

Suicide

An employee of Nilratan Sarkar Medical College and Hospital hanged himself at his Peary Mohan Sur Garden Lane residence in Beleghata early on Monday. Samar Kumar Mukherjee, 55, worked in the hospital’s central medical stores. He was found hanging from the ceiling. No foul play was reported.

Cop remand

Ratan Chowdhury, arrested on Sunday night in connection with the death of Anil Beto and his son Bappa, was remanded in four days’ police custody after being produced before the additional chief judicial magistrate at Barrackpore on Monday.

Kidnap case

Chief secretary Amit Kiran Deb appeared before the first additional judicial magistrate of Barasat, Samaresh Prasad Chowdhury, in connection with the trial in the Roma Jhawar abduction case on Monday. Deb informed the judge that he had given permission to tap the phone lines of several persons associated with the case after the CID additional director-general, R.K. Mohanty, sought his nod. Deb also said he had not informed the investigating officer of the case about the tapping of phone lines.

Mumbai train

South Eastern Railway will run three pairs of superfast weekly specials to Mumbai every Wednesday from Howrah and every Friday from Mumbai between June 11 and June 27. The Howrah-Mumbai Weekly Superfast will leave Howrah at 2.35pm and will reach Mumbai at 11am the following day. The return train will leave Mumbai at 11.30am and arrive at Howrah at 7.15pm the following day.

Flights off

Four JetLite flights from Calcutta were cancelled on Monday for shortage of pilots, airport officials said. The airline’s flights to Guwahati, Dibrugarh, Nagpur and Port Blair were cancelled and 250 passengers were stranded. JetLite said the cancellations were because of operational reasons.

Correction

The caption to a picture of Bagha Jatin’s statue, carried in The City Diary on Monday, read Jatindra Nath Das, instead of Jatindra Nath Mukherjee. The error is regretted.
