Hair samples of disabled children contains Uranium and other dangerous heavy metals

BATHINDA: The high level of Uranium and other dangerous heavy metals present in water samples from the region is responsible for retarded children, mainly from southern Malwa region. It is crippling children's brain.

This was confirmed by Germany’s Microtrace Mineral Lab which revealed that hair samples taken from 80% of the neurologically disabled children, and thier drinking water contains high levels of uranium, a radioactive element.

The report also confirms the presence of dangerous heavy metals in water, questioning high use of chemicals to support state’s green revolution.

The possible source of uranium is the depleted uranium used by US nuclear warheads that were deployed in its war against Iraq.

There were high level of uranium in the drinking water sources and nearly all kinds of heavy metals in the hair samples of 149 children and a few adults at the Baba Farid Centre for Special Children in Faridkot, confirms the report.

The report came out at a press conference on Sunday at Faridkot revealed that most awter samples from the region had uranium content beyond the maximum permissible counts(MPC).

Dr Carin Smit, a South African clinical toxicologist visited the Baba Farid Centre for Special Children, Faridkot and sent samples of disabled children to the German laboratory in March 2009, said Dr NS Azad and Pritpal Singh, incharge of the centre.

Most of the disabled children belongs to southern Malwa region of Punjab which includes Bathinda, Faridkot, Moga, Muktsar, Ferozepur, sangrur, Mansa, Srinagar.

Hundreds of children with physical and mental problems are treated at the Baba Farid centres in Bathinda and Faridkot in the Punjab.

Dr Carin Smit said, “The test results of the hair samples are somewhat surprising. We had suspected arsenic exposure, instead over 80% of children and adult, many of whom are suffering from cerebral palsy and mental retardation, showed pathological levels for uranium.”

With no apparent source of uranium in Punjab, Carin added, “We were not testing for the radioactive element but heavy metal toxicity, which results in ill-health and premature death.”

The use of pesticides and fertilizers, some of which are already banned in other countries are being indiscriminately used in Punjab also acting as catalyst to these diseases.

Other milder problems related to respiratory and nervous system, digestion are very common in Punjab.

Erectile dysfunction in men, menstrual problems, spontaneous abortions, premature births, congenital defects, child mortality and premature deaths(below the age of 60) are on the rise.

A Deep Conspiracy Behind Uranium and Nitrate in the Waters of Punjab

Says –It is being done to Make Punjabi children Mentally Handicapped and Retarded

Chandigarh, June16 ( Bhullar) When no elements like Uranium, from which atom bombs are made ( and nitrates), were present in our waters, river waters, and underground water (in the past), from where did these have come now? If it is not a deep conspiracy to make Punjabi children physically and mentally handicapped and retarded, what else can it be?

S. Simranjit Singh Mann, the president of Shiromani Akali Dal Amiritsar has issued a statement asking these questions. He said that the water samples from (the Punjab towns of) Faridkot, Kotkapura, Mukatsar, Bathinda, Ludhiana, Jalandhar, and Phagwara collected by a team of water experts from Germany and U.K and tested in their laboratories, show the presence of high concentration of uranium and nitrates. This (finding) is an indication of (conspiracy) of harming and playing with havoc with the lives of our children. This is the reason why the diseases related to thyroid, cancer, gastro- intestinal and related diseases have spread widely in Malwa region. It is sad that no arrangement is being made to supply drinking water without theses (impurities) and other germs to prevent the loss of lives occurring every day. Nor is there any specialty hospital to deal with theses being established in the Malwa region.

S. Mann further stated that in Nangal there is Nangal Fertilizer Factory. They have a stockpile of Heavy Water and materials used in atomic bombs. The Government of India has established secret plants to enrich uranium and make heavy water near Pandoh (a town ?) on the river Beas and River Satluj . From that location the polluted water is discharged in Beas and Satluj rivers through tunnels. Also, there are no schemes to treat the polluted water discharged from the chemical and dangerous metals industries. By discharging this polluted water (from these factories) into the rivers, poisons are put into our waters, by which an assault on the physical and mental health of children of this place (Punjab) continues. He appealed to the International Atomic Energy Commission, U.N, International organizations for protecting Human Rights, and the W.H.O to come forward to investigate this inhuman treatment being meted out to and step out to protect the Sikhs and their youth.
