New Delhi (U^I) - The Central Scientific Instruments Organisation (CSIO), Chandigarh, a unit of the Council of. Scientific and Industrial Research, has developed a multi-test instrument for use in the field of electronics. The instrument will be useful for industries where development and testing facilities are required at reduced cost and space..
Th e N at ion al Research Devel opment. Corporation (NRDC) which has released the, process: for commercial .explbrtatioh,-says-|^^^^p| � the device : consists of several Instruments which are commonly used:' in: the laboratory. ;These include the digital multi-meter,

Conventionally separate-instruments are used for different functions in an object - such as for energising an amplifier, feeding the signal, measuring the frcr quency and the input and output. The advantages of using a single multi-test instrument are its low* cost reduced requirement of power socket, and the fact that it occupies little table space.
NRDC has estimated the demand for the instrument at 1000 pieces per annum. It has also assessed that a working capital of Rs 250,000 and fixed capital of Rs 50,000 excluding land and building, would be required to manufacture 200 units yearly.

EK GUNAH ATJR SABfl
Produced, directed and story by Yoiigi Kathuria
Screenplay and dialogue by Sat-^Bhatnagar
Evidentlyi Yougi Kathuria has seen It lot of French and German films! whose influence is more/ than Iclear from the story and treatment. Satish Bhatnagar, Who himself has spent a lot of time in London as BBC producer and writer, has understood what Kathuria wanted and has written the screenplay accordingly.. The film [is so different from an average Hindi film though not devoid of sex and sadism. The screenplay has both erratic and dynamic shadings which at times might appear heavy to an average filmgoer.' ]
Not less than half a dozen bedroom scenes, including a rape on a; drugged girl, will make the film appeal to a certain section of audience. Though the Censor's scissoring is there (triangle in the Censor Certificate), yet the film

short of a miracle of daring and baring for a Hindid movie. Parveen Babi, perhaps the most liberated actress jlndian cinema has seen after Hansa Wadekar (the!

Actually one more crime in the title stands for the murder of Majdan Puri when he is shot at by hislrape-victim but remains alive. Finially he is done to death by Sunil Dutt by managing a fall from the roof of a multistoreyed hotel. For this one more crime he is ! sent to jail while his wife Parveen Babi waits for him - as she waited earlier for over four yefrs when he was sentenced to six years' imprisonment but released for good conduct. �.'

As we hinted earlier, Ek Gunah Anr Sahi is an admixture of three/four foreign films. The first half has trappings of sweet romance and sexy escapades, the
second half is action and crime. The finale is a straight lift from an Italian Western - Suhil Dutt with a noose around his neck and feet resting on the shoulders of Par-vejen Babi. It is new for the Indian cinema. The suspense is there but one knows that finally the hero and heroine would escape the torture and take revenge on the villain. .
the film has a new story, and a western style screenplay and treatment.
