By Tricity News
Chandigarh 09th April:- Introducing an innovative and unconventional concept in the field of the beauty & fashion industry, a team of experts with more than 25 years of experience in skin and hair treatment, have unveiled  Shokeen’s Salon and Hair Lounge in the up market Sec 9 of Panchkula.
Chief Guest of the event, MLA of Panchkula, Gyan Chand Gupta announced the opening of the salon. Popular Hindi Film & TV actress, Shiny Dixit who has won many hearts with her role in Bollywood film  Hate Story 3 & who showed her acting caliber in Zee TV serials- Jodhaa Akbar, Lajwanti, Zindagi Ki Mehak as well as Sony TV’s Pyaar ko ho jane do was also present. Accompanying them was Immamudin Shokeen, the person behind the introduction of this project.
The salon has got a wide variety of services for both men and women. The range of services varies from providing a permanent treatment for scars to the pigmentation problems which have been a matter of concern for beauty enthusiasts everywhere. Adding to the list is permanent make up which focuses on lips , eyebrows etc for  ladies who look forward to a beautiful look for a long term. In order to provide the best services to their customers, the salon has got a cosmetology expert with them in order to do proper analysis of the skin tone and texture before applying any treatment to the same. Highlighting the importance of this, Immamudin Shokeen said that he truly realized the science behind beauty. Sometimes, make up or application of a product brings damage to the skin because one cannot apply a single product to all customers. A proper analysis is required because every skin type is different and this is the way we work. Apart from this, the salon has special provision for Matt look which is in high demand especially among young fashion enthusiasts.
Shiny Dixit said that one can hardly compromise when it comes to looks these days. In the film & TV Industry the role of Make Up & Hair experts is pivotal. Shokeen's has a very good team and am sure they will not only serve the growing regional film & TV Industry but also the tricity very well.
Furthermore, the hair treatment side is also well executed. Hair Extensions which are done using stitches and clipping technique are on the board. The main attraction in this section is the non-surgical hair replacement which would act as a panacea for people looking forward to change their looks. For the chemotherapy patients, the salon provides a service of permanent wigs through which people can get rid of their bald looks.
Gyan Chand Gupta while talking to media that he consider start ups like this a big step to boost employment opportunities as well as entrepreneurship culture in Panchkula. Moreover, the sort of services provided here seem quite different and I hope the people of not just Panchkula but even tricity & the region will be benefited by them.
Nail art and tattoo making is also done in the salon. The ambiance of the salon is also nice and qualifies to be a perfect place for experiencing that dream make over.

Sikh Regiment Writes to CM Punjab to Make Biopic Subedar Joginder Singh Tax Free

By Tricity News
Chandigarh 09th April:- Hitting the cinemas on April 6 and choking people positively with emotions, the Punjabi biopic film-‘ Subedar Joginder Singh’, based on the life of Param Vir Chakra  awardee and war hero, Subedar Joginder Singh has appealed to the people worldwide. Produced by Seven Colors Motion Picture in association with Saga Music and Unisys Infosolutions , the movie presented  a carefully helmed storyline, maintaining all facts. Keeping in view the patriotic fervor & depiction of the illustrious Indian Army and it's braveheart Subedar Joginder Singh, the film's Director Simerjit Singh, Creative Producer Raashid Rangrez, & actor Jaggi Singh held a press meet to demand tax free status for the film from the Punjab Government.
The release of the movie took a significant turn after Brigadier Indrajeet Singh Gakhal after watching the movie, made an appeal to the Punjab government on behalf of the Chandigarh Chapter of the Sikh regiment to make the movie-‘tax free.’ In words of the Brigadier, the prime reason behind his appeal for tax exemption of movie is to ensure that the motivation and inspiration presented in the movie reaches wider cross section of the youth. When asked about the prime focus on youth, he added that it will give youngsters a chance to know about the life of our military heroes and can encourage them to greater career prospects in the Army.
The appeal has been well accepted and supported by the team of ‘Subedar Joginder Singh’ in the interest of the awareness about our saviours-the Indian Army soldiers. Sumeet Singh, Managing Director, Unisys Infosolutions and Saga music while talking to the media, said that some movies are not just movies. They are epic works done by talented actors to present the history in its best form. I have personally watched the movie and got a feel of how our soldiers have been giving their today for our safer tomorrow and hence whole heartedly support Brigadier Indrajeet Singh Gakhal in his appreciable move.
In the present scenario where makers only focus on the commercial aspects film-making; this film will prove to be a game-changer in the world of cinema. Apart from this, it would be considered as a motivation and a true portrayal of the life of soldiers about which majority of the society is ignorant.
The movie, which stars Gippy Garewal in the lead role, is a careful depiction of the journey of the brave warrior from when he was a common man to the legend he became after the 1962 war. It is noteworthy to see the transformation of the actor for his role which presents his dedication. The movie also stars other Punjabi singers like Kulwinder Billa, Rajvir Jwanda, Roshan Prince and Jordan Sandhu.  


 

Opposition Trying to Make Fool of the People of Country by Making False Statements Against BJP:Sambit Patra


By Tricity News
Chandigarh 09th April:- "History of Bharatiya Janata Party has been a history of austerity. If we look towards the top leaders of the party, Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyay, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Lal Krishna Advani, the current Prime Minister Narendra Modi and National President Amit Shah, the result of the tenacity of these great figures is that today BJP has reached from 2 seats to 282 seats and presently our party is ruling in 21 states. It is the results of the penance of these great men that today the BJP became a huge tree. The Bharatiya Janata Party is today the world's largest Democratic Party. Unlike in the past, the augmentation of the respect of Indian Diaspora is credited to our country's Prime Minister Narendra Modi." This was stated by Bharatiya Janata Party's National Spokesperson Dr. Sambit Patra during the function organized on the fortnight of the establishment day at party office Kamalam Sector 33A, Chandigarh.
He said that there are only two political parties in the country, which are cadre based, the BJP and the Left parties.  All the other parties have become Pariwarwadi, including the Congress party, whose base is getting eroded with every passing day. 
He further said that the people of the country have shown faith in the BJP in 2014 Loksabha election and have given an absolute majority to the BJP for the formation of the Narendra Modi government, in the name of development. The time has come to fulfill the faith which the people of the country saw in the eyes of our Prime Minister. Now all the party workers will have to become warriors to fulfill this dream till the BJP government is formed in all the States of the country.
He took on the Congress Party President Rahul Gandhi and said that it seems that the opposition is still trying to make a fool of the people of the country by making false statements against BJP. They are dreaming of getting power in the country by making false propaganda which will prove to be a dream for them now. The people of the country prefer development of the country. Congress has made false commitments and indulged in divisive politics, but and now the public of our country is awake. Because the BJP has adopted the politics of development for everyone without any differentiation. It is a party with ideological policies, whose leaders discarded the covetousness of politics and raised their voice even when the country's Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru had developed the politics of discrimination. At that time, Baba Saheb Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar also highlighted Nehru's wrong policies in his resignation from Nehru’s cabinet.
Surprisingly, why does Rahul Gandhi not see that the Modi government is the government of the interests of the poor, the farmers and the Dalits while the other and his governments have done nothing for them till today? Through the forum, he asked Rahul Gandhi why for 70 years his party's government had not opened saving accounts of more than 50 percent of the country's population.
By merely saying it does not prove to be beneficial for any class. Whereas the prime minister has run several development plans in just 4 years, whether it is Jan Dhan Yojana or Insurance scheme, every poor citizen of the country’s life is safe now. Today, the people of the country started getting electricity where there was no electricity, even if the work of laying the cables in the middle of the sea, the Modi government has done all this.  Why Congress did not remember making the toilets in the country. Due to lack of toilets in schools,  girls of our country were deprived of getting education in school.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is Chai  Wala, proved that the person making tea is a hardworking, honest, and a scrupulous person, only then in such a short time, he started such schemes for the poor people of the country which we have only dreamt of. Our Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, believes Nation first, then Party. He himself proved this by taking very tough decision like demonetization to curb black money. 

Prabhat Jha, National Vice President and in charge of the Chandigarh Unit outline the journey of BJP from Jansangh to BJP. He said that now a new era has begun in the country's politics and now it is the supreme duty of all to keep this juggernaut moving forward. He said that history has proven that all the BJP workers are disciplined soldiers of the party.
Providing information about the programme, Ravinder Pathania, the convener of the party's media department, said that the forum was administered by the State General Secretary, Chandrashekhar. State organization Secretary Dinesh Kumar, Vice President RaghubirLalArora and RambirBhatti,General Secretary Prem Kaushik, Former State PresidntKamala Sharma, former MP Satyapal Jain, Mayor Devesh Moudgil, senior deputy mayor Gurpreet Singh Dhillon, deputy mayor Vinod Agrawal, market committee Chairman, Kulwinder Kala, Chairman of Panchayat samiti, Nanak Singh, Deputy Chairman, jila parishad, Sukhwant Kaur Santosh Ranawere also participated in the programme.
Commencing the programme, President of party’s Chandigarh unit, Sanjay Tandon welcomed the in-charge Prabhat Jha and then highlighted the history of Chandigarh BJP. During the program, he told that the Chandigarh BJP workers also worked hard to sow this plant with their blood. The result of this is that for the first time in Chandigarh today, almost all the elected positions are occupied by BJP workers. An indication of the people’s trust in BJP’s policies.
BJP has wrested 10 major political positions from the Congress party in the city.  Today, BJP has its own Member of Parliament, Mayor,Senior Deputy Mayor, Deputy Mayor, 20 Councillors, Zila Parishad, Market committee, panchayat samiti  chairmen and deputy chairmen also . Along with this, there are 6 Sarpanchs and more than 100 panchs in the village Panchayats supported by the BJP, which is history in itself.
