## Change of plans at Lajwanti Stadium

If you put Nature Fest and the Punjab Sakhi Shakti Mela on your calendar for 18–
22 November, cross out those dates. On 14 November the district administration postponed
the gathering planned for Lajwanti Stadium near Tanda Bypass Chowk. We could verify
no replacement dates. Check the district notice before arranging travel or a stall.

**Local personality · Prof. Manoj Kapoor.** In our 12 November profile, Manoj and
Reena Kapoor recall teenagers arriving at evening coaching with questions they had
carried for years. Those conversations led the couple to think about how much earlier

teaching chemistry at Triple M on Fatehgarh Road near Session Chowk. [Read the HoshiarpurToday profile](https://hoshiarpurtoday.com/prof-manoj-kapoor-and-the-school-he-imagined-for-hoshiarpur/).
