Go To India
From Our Own Correspondent SUVA, June 20.
THE Indian Government has selected three Indian students in Fiji to go to India for further studies. The students, who expect to sail from Suva in the “Orna” about the end of June, were chosen from a panel of six recommended by the Commissioner for the Government of India in Fiji (Mr. S. A. Waiz).
They are Mr. Bhagauti Prasad (trained as a teacher at the Government Training College), who is already at the Benares Hindu University; Mr. Hari Ram (for merly a pupil at the Marist Brothers’
School, Suva); and Miss Kiran Mishra, of Lautoka.
At the Rabaul District Court recently a native was fined £2 and had his licence suspended for two months for dangerous driving; a European member of the
Works and Housing Department, was fined £5 and had his licence suspended for three months on a similar charge; three natives received sentences of six months each for illegal use of a motor vehicle; and two Fijian crew members of the “Admiral Chase” were fined for being drunk and disorderly and resisting arrest.
