Following the shower of promises, now they have started this... shower of currency notes!

By Zuber Ansari

hree minor boys were caught on camera recently at Churchgate station while they stole a mobile phone of one Ashok Patel, when he was purchasing a ticket. The three boys aged between 9 to 14 years surrounded Patel. One of them stood behind him pretending to buy a ticket, another, with a newspaper in his hand stood to Patel's right and the third boy kept pushing Patel from the left side. While the boy behind him and to his left pushed him, the youngest boy, hiding his hand behind the newspaper removed Patel's Samsung note 3 phone, while Patel bent at the window to purchase his ticket.The two boys kept pushing and irritating Patel and at that moment the third boy, the youngest, flicked Patel's cell phone and left the place, while the others left in different directions. Walking a few metres away from the ticket counter, Patel realised that his phone was stolen and then was shocked when he saw the whole incident on the CCTV footage with the police. Patel said: “I was shocked to realise after a while that my phone was missing. Soon I went to the railway police station and complained. Initially the cops were not ready to take the case, but after looking at the CCTV footage they filed a case against the three unidentified boys. I learned that there have been a Continued on pg 12 «

Afzal Hussain PR Executive No. I completely disagree with the MNS chief's statement over the issue because government is earning huge revenue from us.

Sanjay Mishra Journalist No. I think utilising Rs.100 crore which was kept for Shivaji statue for compensating tax loss is not the right move. There are other means to collect revenue. Rizwan Ansari Businessman No. I think Raj does not know about the revenue of the state government and hence he has made this demand. Saurabh Vaktania Journalist Yes. There is no hurry to build Shivaji statue so we should divert the money for the welfare of Mumbaikars. Arun Kumar Journalist Yes. We can build a statue at any time. I think Raj has made a justifiable demand.

Terry Fox Run in aid of cancer research announced Through this event, Mumbai has made it to the top 3 cities globally for its generosity By A Staff Reporter

n Friday, the 16th edition of the Terry Fox Run was announced in the presence of Richard Bale, Consul General, Canada, Director Abhishek Kapoor, Judith Fox-Alder, sister of Terry Fox, Gul Kripalani Convenor Terry Fox (India) Committee and Dr. Rajen Badwe, Director of Tata Memorial hospital, Parel. The run will be held on February 16, 2014 starting from opposite AirIndia building, Nariman Point to Brabourne Stadium (CCI). Abhishek Kapoor, who is also the brand ambassador of this event said. “It's my pleasure to be associated with Terry Fox Run. The work that the team here is doing is phenomenal, I wish all the success to

the team here.” This non-competitive run is an event where people get together as individuals, families and groups to raise money in Terry Fox’s name. Mumbai has made it into the top three cities of the world for giving generously towards cancer research through the Terry Fox Run. “We hope this year that the record will be broken in terms of the number of participants and in terms of money collected though the support of our supporters and schools,” says Kripalani. Judith Fox-Alder who is amazed at how much the annual run has been able to do for cancer research, and how much it continues to do said, “We have over 34 countries that are doing Terry Fox Runs now.

It is quite amazing that Terry 34 years ago did his Marathon of Hope and captured a nation and now he has captured the hearts of people all over the world. It is hard to describe what it means to be Terry Fox’s sister. I don’t even think we can explain the pride that we feel. Terry was an extraordinary person, and the fact that we were born into this family is just a miracle in itself.” Around fifty schools are going to be a part of this run this year. The funds that collected go as donation to Tata Memorial Hospital to carry out research of cancer amongst children. Doctors at Tata Memorial Hospital are in contact with the Terry Fox Foundation in Canada as they continue their research.

I feel I have something to say and I feel I have an audience here to listen to me”. Texan Jimmy Vaughn, who couldn’t make it last year due to a mild heart attack, is happy to be at the festival and bring his style of the blues that has jazz and blues rock influences. Beginning at the age of 12, he ran away from home to see the world and lucky for him today the legend has won four Grammy for his work. Vaughn has listened to Indian music, particularly Bollywood films though he has not seen or met any Indian artist. “I like the style of the melody that these songs have, it’s very similar to a far style of the blues if you listen to a particular song” says the 62-year-old Vaughan. Excited to be here for the first time, Vaughan hopes to look around and take a few memories back home. “It’s like coming to a different planet, this is something I have never seen before.” Lastly Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi who will perform the final act on Sunday, bring their pure blues to Indian audiences. “We are new to India and hope to find a few fans who will love our rock blues sound” signs off Derek Trucks.

Youth stabbed to death by brother BY TARIQ KHAN

youth was stabbed to death in Dadar by his elder brother, following a heated argument between the two, over a married woman with whom the victim had an affair. The 21-year-old accused, Navin Goswami, stabbed his brother Jituraj, 20, thrice on his back with a knife, after a fight ensued between the two late last night. According to the police, the brothers Navin – who works as a manager in an ice cream parlour in Dadar – and Jituraj who hailed from Uttar Pradesh, were living in Bandra. When Navin discovered that Jituraj was having an affair with a married woman in UP, he called up the woman's husband and informed him about the affair. When Jituraj came to know about Navin had done, he rushed to the latter's workplace last night and began arguing with him. The argument turned violent when Navin, in a fit of rage, picked up a knife and stabbed Jituraj on his back thrice, causing him grievous injuries, said the police. Jituraj was rushed to the nearby Shushrusha Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries. Navin has been arrested by the Shivaji Park police on the charges of murder and a further probe is on.

Azad Shrivastav | ADC

Good people and bad things LIKE the rest of the world, we wonder why bad things happen to good people seemingly more frequently than they happen to bad people. Take Sarmistha Ray for instance, aka Rumi. Unfailingly cheerful whenever we have met her over the past 15 years, coming and going from Mumbai, marching to the beat of her opwn mysterious drum, painting, drawing, selling art, suffering. Currently based in Panjim in Goa, a recent exhibition of hers at the Kala Academy elicited the declaration that she was “one of India’s top artists” and a “well known painter”. She has been a professional from 1997, after leaving a well-paying corporate job to do what she loved, and M.F.Husain, Manjit Bawa and Anjoli Ela Menon have applauded her work and encouraged her to paint more. Manjit Bawa in fact called her “an extremely painterly painter”. Without any formal training in art, Rumi held her first exhibition in

difficult to quantify such efforts, and we should not try. More important, Rumi’s collectors include the Prime Minister’s Residence, Air India, the American Consulate (Mumbai),and corporate houses including Camlin, Godfrey Phillips, Mahindra & Mahindra, the National Centre for the Performing Arts, Bombay House (Tata Sons), Merrill Lynch, Mark Peterson (USA) and Yaron in Israel. Today she faces a major challenge in her life. Not only is she battling a terminal illness (kidney failure) but she has also been cheated of her life’s savings by a Mumbai-based financial services company. And so it is back to the drawing board (in her case, the easel) to try and pick up the pieces again. After her exhibition in Goa, she will open in Mumbai at Art Gate in Churchgate on February 18 till 23. She agrees life can be grim and hers could be better now. But while she has Goa and the sea at her back and an easel in front, she can

Bombay in 1998. Her paintings, she says, were first discovered by Pheroza Godrej of Cymroza Art Gallery. Since then, Rumi has had shows in New Dehi, Mumbai, Himachal Pradesh, Goa and Israel. Over the years she traveled and thought about peace, incorporating it into a programme called “A Voice in the Wilderness”. In 2002, she conducted workshops for peace in Israel and Palestine. There is nothing that cannot be solved through art, she believes, even bitterness lasting for a thousand years! Some of her workshops have been attended by the families of suicide bombers. Perhaps she helped there, but who knows. It is

Valentine’s Day

TO think that this day used to cause so much brouhaha a couple of years back and now, except on SMS and Whatsapp, one hardly remembers what day it is. Not even the Rama Sene which covered itself in such glory in Bangalore, trying to get youngsters to stop giving each other chocolate and roses and soppy greeting cards. Sorry, but for oneself, Valentine’s Day will always mean

Helpage India celebrated Valentine’s Day yesterday with senior citizens at Aaji Aajoba Udyan in Shivaji Park. Around 100 senior citizens and 50 youngsters attended the celebration where their intergenerational bond was restored.

the massacre in 1929 of seven mobsters, associates as part of a Prohibition-era conflict between two powerful criminal gangs in Chicago: the South Side Italian gang led by Al Capone and the North Side Irish gang led by Bugs Moran It will mean the Behmai massacre in 1981, when 21 upper caste men of the village were shot in cold blood by dacoit Phoolan Devi and her gang. Later she became an MP and was herself assassinated, but thinking about the state of things in Parliament on Thursday, with pepper spray flying around and the Speaker fleeing, she would have felt right at home. Here are a couple of other big ticket events from the past couple of years – in 2013, bankrupt American Airlines and US Airways merged to form the world’s largest airline. Okay, that’s romantic! Not so romantic is that on this day in 2012, Pyongang unveiled a new statue of (who else) Kim-il Jong.

Well-suited bedfellows

WE are all well-versed with the saying that politics makes strange bedfellows to the extent that if

politicians of various hues don’t become strange bedfellows, we wonder what’s wrong with them. Maybe that is why even AAP member Anjali Damania’s revelation last year that the BJP’s Nitin Gadkari had told her that he had business dealings with the NCP strong man Sharad Pawar raised very few eyebrows. In this case, however, it is surprising, for the toll issue seems to tap into huge reservoirs of bitterness and anger, and the MNS is making hay while the sun shines on the issue. The truth is, people in Maharashtra are tired of paying up at toll after toll naka to use the state’s roads, especially when they feel their taxes should have paid for them anyway. When we pay road taxes and wheel taxes, and the money is (or should be) used to build roads, why should be keep paying for half a century or more to use them? That is why the MNS has public support, that is also why, we think, the MNS has toned down its agitation and kept the violence to a minimum. But the public thought Thackeray was ready to read Chavan the riot act (figuratively on Thursday morning at his residence. No such thing, says a journalist who was there. They came out and

everyone was positively beaming and happy. And what was decided? The state would buy back 22 toll nakas that cost less than Rs 10 crore each from the contractors. A new toll policy will shortly be announced. There is, as yet, no timeline to stop toll collection.

IS THAT A “TOLL STORY” OR A PJ? Either way, we would really like to know what the exact deal is that makes everyone laugh so much. That’s the MNS’ Bala Nandgaonkar wielding his smart phone, as Nitin Sardesai, Raj Thackeray’s right hand man, chief minister Prithviraj Chavan and Ajit Pawar look on.

And Thackeray says don’t pay and if the contractors insist, tell us, we will go to their houses and create havoc. Now, Chavan might have had reason to smile, and as an ally, Pawar as well. The others – not so much.

Sena takes potshots at MNS’ anti-toll stir

MUMBAI | SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2014 Sushil Kadam | ADC

By Prashant Hamine

The Traffic Police were on Friday forced to close down Ambedkar Road at Sion for traffic after a container was stuck under a railway bridge opposite the Sion-Gandhi Market. The road was closed towards South Mumbai causing traffic jams during peak hours. Traffic cops later brought the situation under control.

he Shiv Sena took potshots at the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena's (MNS) anti-toll agitation, by terming MNS chief Raj Thackeray as 'new' (naya hai waha). Referring to the release of Sena workers who were detained for stalling the performance of a Pakistani band last week, the Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana' remarked that the party was proud of its party workers. The editorial states that any agitation should not be reduced to a drama and fizzle out because people will boycott such dramas and move on. In a sarcastic tone it said,

Cong GS says party will improve tally in state Rahul Gandhi to campaign in state from February 28 till March 1 By A Special Correspondent

ongress general secretary Mohan Prakash has said that the party will soon improve its tally in the state. Prakash's statement has indicated that the party is unmoved by the prepoll surveys showing Congress' debacle in the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections. Meanwhile, Congress VicePresident Rahul Gandhi will tour Maharashtra from February 28 to March 1 as part of the party's campaign for the Lok Sabha polls. Not only Prakash but Congress Working Committee member and North West Mumbai MP Gurudas Kamat also asserted that the Congress-led UPA III will assume power after the elections. Kamat, who has been recently inducted in the Con-

gress party's election committee, said that the Congress-NCP alliance will retain all six Lok Sabha seats in Mumbai as the voters will support the development plank. Both the leaders were speaking after Prakash flagged off six campaign raths (chariots) specially prepared by Kamat in six assembly constituencies under the North West Mumbai Lok Sabha constituency. Prakash and Kamat took a shot against the campaign launched by BJP, especially by its Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi against the Congress party and its leaders saying that the Congress party is unaffected by their attack.On the Congress' attempts to strike an alliance in the run-up to the general elections, Prakash said that in Maharashtra the 26:22 seat sharing formula

the media did try to create a impression that on the day of the stir, all the streets would be deserted and public life would be paralysed. Instead the police were seen trying to figure our where the agitation was taking place. At places, the police were even found waiting for the agitating MNS workers to turn up.

GRP moves court over Thackeray’s bail By Philip Varghese

with Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) has already been finalised. “We are contesting on the lines of the 2009 polls (Congress 26 and NCP 22). One or two seats may be exchanged but it is yet to be discussed”, Prakash added. On NCP chief and Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar's much debated meeting with Modi and his chances of joining the NDA after elections, Prakash referred to Pawar's denial in this regard. No body should question Pawar's pro-secular stand in his entire career. “Also, there is no space for Pawar in the Maha Yuti (grand alliance) formed by the BJP, Shiv Sena, Republican Party of India and Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatana. Pawar is not only the NCP chief but is also one of the senior leaders of UPA”, he said.

aharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) Chief Raj Thackeray's agitation against toll levy seems to have boomeranged on the leader as the Government Railway Police (GRP) has moved the Sessions Court in Kalyan seeking cancellation of bail granted to Thackeray after his arrest during MNS violent agitation against North Indians in 2008. Thackeray had surrendered after the Bombay High Court had then cancelled the interim bail granted by the Kalyan court in the case with regard to an FIR registered against him in connection with the violent protests by MNS activists targeting North Indian candidates who were to appear for the Railway Re-

cruitment Board exams on October 19, 2008. The then Sessions Judge K.V. More had ordered Thackeray's release on a cash bail of Rs.1 lakh but not before asking him to refrain from making provocative speeches or writings that promoted enmity between communities. However, the railway police claimed that the recent vandalism and agitation by MNS against toll collection was in violation of the bail condition laid by the court, while releasing Thackeray. “The MNS workers, however, violated this bail condition, by resorting to violence and vandalism after Thackeray told his workers not to pay the toll. This amounts to breach of the bail condition”, the application moved by the GRP stated.

Afternoon Despatch & Courier

DESPATCH & COURIER

Ponder awhile… "Each problem that I solved became a rule which served afterwards to solve other problems." — Rene Descartes

AAP collapse: the expected has happened T

he AAP government in Delhi has collapsed: chief minister Arvind Kejriwal has resigned. He has sent his resignation to the Delhi Lt. Governor. He had no go but to step down. Earlier, yesterday his attempt to pass the Jan Lokpal failed. That was a big setback to him. The Congress MLAs – eight of them – refused to support the move which was regarded as unconstitutional. When he took over, a couple of peoplefriendly welfare measures were supported by the Congress MLAs – water, power. Afterwards, he began attacking establishing institutions and began to find fault with them. It is quite surprising that the Congress thought it could do what it wanted. The collapse of the government had to happen. It was not a surprise. The Congress had given him a long rope and was silently watching what he was doing. And when he went haywire, they said enough was enough and did not support his Lokpal bill. That made Arvind Kejriwal to resign. The BJP managed 42 votes against the Lokpal move. It is evident that some of the Congress MLAs voted with the BJP. There appears to have been a new understanding between the BJP and the Congress. If they came together, the BJP can form the government in Delhi. Both the BJP and the Congress now regard the AAP as their common enemy. If however they do not continue to support each other they have strong reservations in this regard – the only way out is for the president to take over. That is what is going to happen in Delhi. The Congress and the BJP are traditional enemies. They may join when a common enemy challenges them, but they are indifferent in their political perceptions. Delhi folks could have done without the 48 days of drama. What have they got from the AAP? Nothing – not even a kg of onion at a fair price.

JUGGLER in a circus plays with three balls or rings at a time. His skill and concentration and perfection makes hundreds of spectators sit on the edge of their chairs all the time. As he finishes one item, before the thunder of clap is over, he is already in another act. While doing the acts, there is always a mild smile on his face, only to show that he is at ease all the while; actually it is not so. Maharashtra's political heavy-weight, Sharad Pawar often acts like the juggler. At a time, he handles many political parties, their leaders and keeps the people of Maharashtra wonderstruck all the time. Like the trained juggler in the ring, you cannot predict, his next trick. The difference between the two, however, is that the objects that the juggler handles are not likely to react adversely. In the game of politics, Pawar needs to be prepared for any unexpected reaction. Despite that risk, Pawar continues to play, day after day; year after year.

mediately denied having any meeting with Modi in the last one year. But soon it was corrected by him that it could be an 'official' meeting in his capacity of Union Agriculture minister. However, later he admitted that he had met Modi but refused to give details. In short, Pawar managed to stir hornet's nest in the political corridors. Now Pawar has kept a meaningful silence about the discussions and gossips about his meeting. Now a serious question is whether Pawar is serious about leaving the Congress stable? And more importantly, is Modi and his BJP ready to accept him as a constituent of the NDA in the pre-election scenario? The answers are difficult. There is every reason for Pawar to contemplate to desert the sinking ship of UPA, particularly because the relations of his Nationalist Congress Party have been strained with the Congress in Maharashtra, though they are partners in the state power. None of them leave any opportunity to pull the other down for even a minor reason. State leaders of both The man, who was the youngest Chief Minis- parties freely make public statements and alter of Maharashtra in late 80s, took oath of the legations against each other regularly. They highest political office of Maharashtra record seem to be together only because of the glue four times and later moved to Delhi to become a Union minister. During his stay in Delhi he engineered a coup against the allpowerful Sonia Gandhi and launched his own political outfit at the national level. Despite being a proven rebel, he managed to remain in the union cabinet for ten years of UPA-I and II in a senior position. And now as the 2014 Lok Sabha elections are round the corner, Pawar is in his new game again. Now he has managed to keep his UPA partners guessing whether he is with them or not. On the other hand, the opposition NDA constituents are also feeling uncomfortable with his move as they know that if he comes in the opposiBharatkumar Raut tion camp, before or after the elections or if he joins the upcoming Third Front, he has the capacity to spoil their happiness. of the power. Considering that now Congress As heavy pre-election politics at the national is facing an uphill task of retaining its manlevel was about to go in to the top gear, a story date in the ensuing Lok Sabha polls, Pawar leaked; Pawar had a secret meeting with BJP's does not want to tag his fate with Congress. prime ministerial nominee, Narendra Modi. Instead, he and his lieutenants sincerely feel Though nobody knows how the news was that the NCP would do better on its own in leaked, there is enough room to believe that it Maharashtra instead of going along with the was leaked deliberately by Pawar himself.

omething I taught both my daughters was to be a man in a men’s world! Sounds strange doesn’t it? Unfortunately for us, the world, more so in our country, is still one were men feel they reign supreme! So there is a need, I told my daughters to be men in a men’s world. So often I find women with tremendous leadership qualities, suddenly using the emotional card when they get driven to a corner: The solitary tear, soon joined by another and another till waves wash face! Tears are a great way of bringing men to their knees! “What’s happened to madam boss? Her cabin is closed?” “I think she’s weeping!” “About what?” “We failed to deliver!” “Let’s go to her cabin and console her! Poor thing!” And they all troop into her office and console the’ poor thing!’ But forever will she re-

ative as Sena has been firing salvos against the NCP and its leaders all these years. Moreover, the new partners in the alliance, the Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatana, led by Raju Shetty, a breakaway faction of Shetkari Sanghatana, has an axe to grind against Pawar and co. to establish their sway over the sugarcane producing southern districts of Maharashtra, that is considered to be the chief bastion of Pawar's NCP. It would be difficult for BJP also to accommodate NCP in the alliance as so far the party has used the NCP and its leaders as a punching bag, particularly after Prithviraj Chavan of Congress took over as the Chief Minister three years ago. This is because Chavan, having a clean face, the BJP could not make any personal attack against him, while the NCP leaders are more vulnerable having many scandals in their cupboards.

What strategy will he adopt now? Not that Pawar is not aware of this eventuality. However, he is sending confusing signals to the alliance on one hand and the Congress on the other. The strategy of the seasoned politicians seems to be of applying pressure tactic. If Pawar shows his preparedness to break away from the alliance with Congress in Delhi and in Maharashtra, the already weakened Congress camp will be in a distress. By bringing the Congress to its knees, Pawar would demand his pound of flesh, not in the Lok Sabha elections but in the State Assembly elections scheduled to be held in October. Now that the Congress and NCP have forged a seat sharing deal of 26-22 for Lok Sabha, Pawar's sight is set on Assembly elections. He would demand and get bigger share in the Assembly elections to ensure that the NCP emerges no. 1 party and thus claim for the chief ministership. On the other hand, he would also weaken the Sena-BJP alliance campaign as many second rank leaders and workers at the rural level would remain confused on who is their enemy no 1, Congress or NCP? This confusion would help Pawar's men to fire their salvo when the actual campaign takes off. To remain in the forefront in national politics and to be a force to reckon with after the Lok Sabha verdict, Pawar wants to ensure at least a dozen MPs on his side in Lok Sabha. In 2009, he could win only 9 seats, 8 of them from Maharashtra. Now that P.A. Sangma of Meghalaya is not with him, Pawar would have to win all his seats from Maharashtra only. This is an uphill task as many opinion polls have given him not more than 4 seats. In such a situation, Pawar needs to follow the guerilla warfare formula and take on the enemy on his own battlefield. Pawar mastered this strategy and successfully implemented it in the past. That is called 'Pawar (Power) politics' in Maharashtra corridors. Will he be able to do it again? The future course of Maharashtra politics and Pawar's own political future lies there.

Telangana creates chaos in Parliament 'TELANGANA bill causes chaos'(February 14) is a gross understatement – the parliament was turned into a pub of sorts, where 'customers' in high spirits indulge in such brawls. The temple of democracy has lost its sanctity because of the highly condemnable behaviour of a few people's representatives including, regrettably, some from the Congress. The UPA government has quite clearly failed to assess the consequences of creating Telangana in its eagerness to bag the new state's votes in the polls. If such unprecedented pepper sprays and dagger displays can happen even when the proposed bill was being introduced in the house, one shudders to think what will happen if Telangana really comes into being – uncontrollable riots are certain to spread far and wide. Under the circumstances, it will be best to drop the bill and request the President to dissolve the parliament which has got only a couple of months to go. The unruly members deserve a lot more than mere suspension for showing the parliament in very poor light before the world. — Dr. V. Subramanyan, Thane

Prime Minister in waiting US ambassador Nancy Powell meeting Narendra Modi in Gandhinagar does not come as a surprise as even the United States now believes that he will be the next Prime Minister of India. Modi's role in the 2002 Gujarat riots has not been proved and this is reason enough for the US to lift the ban on him. Modi is CM of the most developed state of our country and there is no reason why he can't repeat that success for our nation if he is given the PM's chair in the coming election. US-India relations have been cardinal over the years and the US' decision to get closer to Modi clearly indicates that other countries are now factoring the Modi wave and wooing the man who in all probability will be the next PM of our country. Modi certainly cannot perform worse than the present UPA rule and most people today believe that he deserves at least one chance to transform our nation.

SHAMEFUL BEHAVIOUR: If such unprecedented pepper sprays and dagger displays can happen even when the proposed bill was being introduced in the house, one shudders to think what will happen if Telangana really comes into being.

THE clash among the MPs over the tabling of the Telangana Bill resulting in the use of a knife and pepper spray, is disgraceful. These MPs behaved like goons when they snatched the speaker's mic and tore bill copies. I consider this to be a blot on democracy which has degraded the image of the country and the parliamentary system. The need of the hour is that the speaker disqualify those MPs who are responsible for this horrible act and ban them for the rest of the Parliament session. It is high time all political parties co-operate with the government to pass pending bills, rather than create arguments and controversy. — Bhagwan Thadani, Mumbai

APROPOS 'Air conditioned local? Really' (adc, feb 13), the adc diary piece very rightly indicates the general apprehension of Mumbaikars that commute daily for their livelihood by local trains, in respect of the AC locals which have been long awaited. It is good to learn that in a couple of months we will be able to commute by an AC local in Mumbai. However, certain factors like the safety of these trains LETTER OF needs to be looked into THE DAY seriously, so that deaths on the tracks are stopped once for all. No where in the world have I heard that during a daily commute to work, at least ten commuters perish. The Indian Railways needs to consider this aspect seriously and ensure that each passenger returns home in one piece. — Bikram Banerjea, Mumbai

released the pepper spray at fellow members. Amidst the chaos, the Speaker adjourned the house. The space near the Speaker's podium resembled a battleground as members favouring and opposing Telangana shouted slogans and displayed placards. Now the Congress is tasting its own medicine and cannot blame the BJP for the paralysis of the parliament, as it has done in the past. — Abhisheck Ramaswamy, Vashi

WHAT are the lessons that other states must learn from the ongoing Telengana snafu? The crux of the tussle is Hyderabad. Seemandhra is bristling because they poured money into Hyderabad – far more than the people of Telengana. And now they do not want their investment to be snatched. The question arises as to why the people of Seemandhra not invest in their own area and create another Hyderabad with their own money? And that is the lesson for all states – do not concentrate development in one corner of the state – it may go away. Ensure that development is evenly spread. It may take a little more time, but it will be worth it and your investment stays with you. It is not necessary to make the capital the biggest city. States whose capital is separate from business have done better – an outstanding example – Gujarat. — T.R. Ramaswami, Kandivali

Congress-BJP feud harmful IT is sad that the BJP and Congress have fallen from grace and are censuring each other using unparliamentary language. Our politcians should understand that voters should be left to decide which party is better. The Congress should not digress from national issues and blame the opposition for its failure. It should not forget that it is responsible for the ensuing chaos in the nation today. It is not wrong to claim that the history of India would have been much better if Sardar Patel was made the first PM. — S.P. Sharma, Mumbai

ARVIND Kejriwal has categorically stated that the manifold increase in the prices of gas and petroleum products is mainly due to a nexus between Ambanis and others like him, and the ministers, while asserting that Ambani is now used to fixing the prices of oil and gas at unfairly high rates, thus reeciving a windfall in the bargain. It is also reported that Kejriwal has ordered those concerned to file an FIR against Ambani, Veerappa Moily and Murli Deora as these three individuals are mainly responsible for the wilful conspiracy leading to inflation in oil and gas prices.

THE FOURTH KIND

In 1972, a scale of measurement was established for alien encounters. When a UFO is sighted, it is called an encounter of the first kind. When evidence is collected, it is known as an encounter of the second kind. When contact is made with extraterrestrials, it is the third kind. The next level, abduction, is the fourth kind.

In spite of the unating system (OS) enhanced with artificial intelligence. In this wired world where people have more online contacts than real ones, they may be losing the ability to connect with real emotions. In the film, not just the protagonist, Theodore (Joaquin Phoenix) but everyone around him looks like they are talking to themselves, because they are chatting on their smartphones. Theodore has friendly colleagues and nice neighbours, yet he spends his leisure hours with his gaming Deepa Gahlot console. So when his new OS,

happiness over his divorce (the wife played by lovely Rooney Mara), he doesn’t seem like he has given up on romance. He is chatty with his neighbour Amy (Amy Adams) and her husband, and with colleagues. The ‘affair’ with Samantha is just used as a satire on a probable future when humans will be alienated from society as we know it today, and machines will have the same emotional core and need for love. If an OS can provide care, empathy and companionship—and also search for a real character to be a substitute for her lack of a body and match her with Theodore’s requirements, what more could a man want? In Jonze’s imagined dystopia, this may be all there is to aspire to in the name of love. On Valentine’s Day, it a depressing thought.

1971 and the formation of Bangladesh. The two protagonists of the film, are orphaned during that cataclysm, and forced into a life of crime, for want of any options. They escape to Calcutta and start with petty coal pilfering. By the time, Bikram (Ranveer Singh) and Bala (Arjun Kapoor) grow up, they are the most notorious gundas in all of Calcutta, but also the most generous, in the old Robin Hood/Nayakan tradition.

them, which the cop tries to exploit. While there is a flamboyance to Zafar’s filmmaking—scenes shot during the inevitable Kolkata Durga Puja mayhem, and action set pieces in coal mines—there is also the glorification of crime by blaming the system. Satyajit says at one point that if everyone with a grievance against the system turns to crime that would be the end of society, adding that turning gundas into heroes would influence weak-minded people. But that’s as far as the director’s conscience goes—he is on the side of his gunday he wants the audience to root for them, not for the poor cops who are killed by them while doing their duty. There is the idea for a sequel built in—the two could escape to Bombay and be right in time for the rise of the mafia. Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor have to try hard at machismo which came effortlessly to the real stars of the period—Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Vinod Khanna, Shatrughan Sinha. The plot is rather close to the old Raj Khosla Dostana. Priyanka Chopra’s costumes may be self-consciously sexy, but she manages the husky slinkiness of Zeenat Aman. However, Irrfan just steals every scene he is in—it really is a ‘special’ appearance.

Kolkata Kapers

Gunday

LTHOUGH it wasn’t a box-office success when originally released in 1958, ‘Vertigo’ is considered by many to be Hitchcock’s greatest, most spellbinding, most deeply personal achievement.

But his plan to retire and live a relaxed life goes awry when Gavin Elster (Tom Helmore), a college chum, now a big businessman offers him a job as a private detective. Elster believes his wife, Madeleine (Kim Novak), has been possessed by a spirit of a dead woman, the Spanish girl Carlotta Valdes, an ancestor whose tragic life was cut short by

mesmerising way and the music composed by Ajay Atul is also classy. The director, National Award winner Nagraj Manjule has won acclaim at many festivals and does a good job though he goes overboard in the hog catching sequences. The actors playing Jabya and Shalu are first timers but have done a good job, especially Jabya. Kishore Kadam excels as always. The director himself has an important part. Jyoti Subhash supports well. All in all a film worth a 'dekho' just for its different subject and presentation.

MCS ACT PROVIDES FOR LEGAL DE-REGISTRATION OF SOCIETY

Picture for representational purpose only

SECTION 21-A of the Maharashtra Co-op Societies Act, 1960 deals with de-registration of societies. If the Registrar is satisfied that any society is registered on misrepresentation made by applicants, or where the work of the society is completed or exhausted or the purposes for which the society has been registered are not served, he may, after giving an opportunity of being heard to the Chief Promoter, the committee and the members of the society, de-register the society: Provided that, where the number of members of the society is so large and it is not possible to ascertain the correct addresses of all such members from the records in the office of the

Registrar and, in the opinion of the Registrar it is not practicable to serve a notice of hearing on each such individual member, a public notice of the proceedings of the de-registration shall be given in the prescribed manner and such notice shall be deemed to be notice to all the members of the Committee of the Society, and no proceeding in respect of the de-registration of the society shall be called in question in any Court merely on the ground that individual notice is not served on any such members.

What are the rights and liabilities of a member of a cooperative housing society according to the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960? - Shanta Deokar

Rights and liabilities of a member include: 1. Voting at General Body Meeting. 2. Rights to contest the election for the post of any committee or Board of Directors. 3. Right to know the affairs of the society. 4. Inspection of Books and Records 5. Transferring shares or interest in the society, subject to provisions of section 29. 6. Entitled to refer the dispute between him and the society touching the business or constitution of the society to the Co-op. Court for decision. 7. May tender voluntary resignation of his membership. 8. Right to refer disputes between him and the society to the appropriate authority for the decision. 9. To obtain a loan. 10. Refund of share money on amalgamation, division, conversion, etc. 11. Withdraw in case of charge of liability. 12. Freedom from attachment of shares. 13. To nominate successor. 14. To receive profits and dividends. 15. To apply for enquiry. 16. To appeal against winding up etc. Mere application to be admitted to membership together with payment of necessary fees cannot invest a person with position of a member. While admitting an applicant to membership, the managing committee has to consider not merely compliance of technicalities but also the position status desirability of a person to be a member etc (Panditrao Madhavrao v. Jayant Rangrao and others) If the bye-laws of a society lay down certain limitation on the full-fledged membership, then, such a person has no right to vote during the period of probation (Gajanan v. Guru Seva Society). Also, when the value of share is increased and unless the existing members are served with notice to pay the balance of the price, they cannot be treated as defaulters and their voting rights are not affected (Suganchand v. Pannalal) Only the members of the Provisional Committee are exempted under the said bye-law, in order to contest the election to the Managing Committee. A person must first be a member of the society and must have acquired a requisite number of shares in order to get elected as the member of the Managing Committee (Capt. V.G. Nagarajan v. Bhanu Vinayak Premises Co-op Society Ltd). If a person is held liable towards obligation to make full payment of the cost of the particular tenement which is to be allotted to him, he has every right to question the correctness or otherwise of the demand thereof (A.I. Umarani v. Saraswat Suburban Co-op. Housing Society Ltd). The right to vote being a member of society and being a member having a right to vote in the affairs of a society are two distinct things. Every associate member does not have right to vote but,

LEGAL QUERIES

If the bye-laws of a society lay down certain limitation on the full-fledged membership, then, such a person has no right to vote during the period of probation only that associate member whose name stands first in the share certificate has the right to vote. To challenge the election process, the person must have acquired a voting right. In case the petitioner does not have shares of requisite value, he has no locus standi to challenge any part of election process. (Bhaskar Eknathrao Shinde v. State of Maha. & Ors).

NOW INVESTING BECOMES EASIER FOR NRIS How does an NRI invest in property in India? Earlier, it was governed by a person’s citizenship. Is an NRI treated on par with non-resident foreign citizens of Indian origin? - Vendy Thomas Until some ago, investing in immovable properties for NRI’s was quite an uphill task. In the days of the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, the buying or selling of immovable property was governed by the citizenship of a person. At present, the term Non-Resident Indian means a person residing outside India who is either a citizen of India or is a person of Indian Origin who is no longer a citizen of India. An Indian citizen who stays abroad for the purpose of employment, business or to pursue any kind of vocation outside India or under circumstances indicating an intention for an uncertain duration of stay abroad is a non-resident Indian. In addition, non-resident foreign citizens of Indian origin are treated on par with Indian NRI citizens for the purpose of many investment related facilities. To avail of a number of facilities in India such as opening and maintenance of bank accounts or investment in shares and securities in India, the term ‘Person of Indian Origin’ means a citizen of any

other country other than Pakistan or Bangladesh who, (a) at any time has held an Indian passport; (b) he or either of his parents or any of his grandparents was a citizen of India by virtue of the constitution of India or the Citizenship Act, 1955 (57 of 1995); (c) is a spouse of an Indian citizen. For investments in immovable property, a Person of Indian Origin covers the same criteria. But it also debars citizens from neighbouring countries such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, China, Iran or Nepal to be called a ‘Person of Indian Origin’. All persons whether residing in India or outside India who are citizens of the above said countries require prior permission of the Reserve Bank of India for acquiring or transferring any immovable property in India. A person of Indian origin residing outside India does not require permission to acquire any immovable property in India other than agricultural land, farmhouse or a plantation property by way of gift from a person who is a resident of India or a person who resides outside India but is a citizen of India or from another person who is of Indian origin but resides outside India. The same holds true in the case of inheritance too. This means that a person of Indian origin residing outside India does not require permission to acquire any immovable property in India through inheritance from another person residing outside India who had acquired such property in accordance with the provisions of the foreign exchange law in force at the time of acquisition. Non-resident Indians and persons of Indian origin can also freely rent out their immovable property in India without seeking any permission from the Reserve Bank. The rental income being a current account transaction is freely reportable outside India.

The object of the game is to place all the tiles in the grid so that the figures on the adjacent edges of each tile match. You can place any tile anywhere in the grid, but you cannot place a tile in the grid if its edges do not match all of its neighbors. Find a digit that occurs only once on a given puzzle. You know that this digit must lie along the outer edge of the grid, since there are no other tiles that can match it. You can simplify solving by cutting out the nine squares and juggling them in the grid.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20): Diplomacy and poise are essential if you expect to get along with others. A confrontation at this juncture will only act as a setback. This is the time to improve relationship and consolidate your position. You need to earn all the goodwill that you can muster. A chance meeting with someone could lead to romance. If committed elsewhere in marriage or love, mention it. You will win a good friend.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 20): You will have a favorable day at work. There will be a fresh work offer that holds promise of a steady growth in your career. Do not waste your time and energy in chasing small benefits. Aim for something spectacular howsoever difficult it may appear. In relationships even though there may be distances because of circumstances the warmth of fond memories of togetherness keep you going throughout the day.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20): A sudden opportunity may come along which could do wonders for your career. If you have been feeling low about your work, you will now get an offer to redeem your reputation and establish yourself in your field of specialization. There will be happiness from some developments in the family. Today’s experience will leave you with a feeling of contentment and warm glow of love. Happiness and harmony within the family makes your day.

CANCER (June 21 - July 21): Appointments and schedules tend to get upset. There is a lot to do but not enough time. Your work may need more personal involvement and you are not able to devote much time. You better plan your work strategy well in advance and then follow it sincerely else matters will get out of control. A delicate situation can arise whereby your romantic association may not find favor with family. You will have to make a choice.

LEO (July 22 - August 21): You will be full of enthusiasm and able to handle work efficiently. The money received can be gainfully invested in fresh ventures that you may have planned. Make sure you stick to your well thought out plan and not bring any changes on the behest of others. Some of you may consider to get engaged while others may go through an early marriage.

VIRGO (August 22 - September 21): Perhaps you are being too cautious when discussing terms for a new proposal. Small profits will add up to bigger ones later. You have other things on your mind other than routine work. An outing will expose you to something good if you are inclined and game for a new experience. Throw caution to the winds and follow fancy of the heart, you will not be disappointed. Look forward to an amazing happening.

LIBRA (September 22 - October 22): With the help of a colleague you will be able to catch up with pending work with a particularly difficult assignment.

Improve your stance which seems intimidating right now.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21): You will have a rewarding day at work. Financial gains will accrue to you from work completed earlier. Clearance for a particular assignment will come through now. Plans for a journey may change. Certain contingencies at home may need your attention.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 December 20): Hard work will be effective and advantageous. Collaboration will ensure success in whatever you are doing at present. You may head a significant undertaking, which will guarantee a steady flow of money. You will do well but are advised to guard against complacency. Romance will play a pivotal role and if you are thinking of a permanent relationship initial steps can now follow.

CAPRICORN (December 21 - January 19): Stay out of controversies. Financial benefits need to be used as quickly as possible or put away safely. There are some who may try to tap you for a loan. Do not get persuaded by them. Be gentle but firm in saying no as this could lead to a monetary loss. It could also affect relationships. You share a good rapport with your beloved that makes your relationship tender and romantic Expect a pleasant surprise this evening.

AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18): Consistent hard work that you had put in earlier will get you what you want. Benefits through government are indicated. A sincere approach in life always gets rewarded. You must not feel that you get little, and late, in comparison to the hard work you put in. Life has its own pattern. A new association with a person of the opposite sex overwhelms you and you can hardly concentrate on work and other things that are important for you.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20): A new assignment will keep you on the move and constantly on your toes. This is perhaps the opportunity that you have been waiting for. You can look forward to some income from work you have just completed. New work enquiries are also encouraging. Not much happening in your love life as you will be focusing on other areas of your life which are also important to you right now.

MUMBAI | SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2014

OLKATA: The Indian challenge at the USD 50,000 ATP Challenger Tour ended today after Russian third seed Evgeny Donskoy outplayed Somdev Devvarman to set up a final clash against a spirited Ilija Bozoljac of Serbia. Barring the first set which the second seed Somdev won after breaking his opponent in the second game, it was the Russian all the way as he clinched the match 3-6 7-5 6-2. The day, however, belonged to unseeded Bozoljac as the world-ranked 270 showed an astounding comeback after losing nine straight games to stun the top seed and world-ranked 93 Aleksandr Nedovyesov 0-6 7-5 6-3.

Delhi to take on winless Mumbai today

MUMBAI: Laggards Mumbai Magicians would desperately look for a win against table-toppers Delhi Waveriders when they clash in their penultimate Hockey India League home tie, here today. The Mumbai franchise, last edition's wooden spoonists, would be rejuvenated after a long break but face a formidable task against the Sardar Singh-led Waveriders. Mumbai, who are to clash with Kalinga Lancers on Sunday to complete their home engagements, have been consistently poor barring a few games which includes their first leg tie against Delhi which they narrowly lost. The Delhi outfit had earned a hard-fought 2-1 victory over the Magicians on their home turf. Despite being in control for most part of the match the Magicians allowed the Waveriders to take the game away in the last few minutes. "We will go out and play well tomorrow. It is very much important for us to win and will try not repeating the mistakes in our game against Delhi Waveriders and the team has been working on that," said Mumbai coach M K Kaushik. "I agree that the advantage will be with Delhi Waveriders as they have already qualified for the semifinals, hence they can go easy for tomorrow’s game but it's very much important for us to win tomorrow," Kaushik added. Magicians skipper Glenn Turner said they would like to end the season on a better note by securing a win. "We are practicing hard and making our full effort to perform well in our next match against Delhi Waveriders," the Aussie said.

Rising visitors lost the wickets of Cheteshwar Pujara (19).

Sharma continued with his splendid show from the first Test as he claimed his second five-wicket haul of the series and fifth verall in his 55th Test. Sharma took three wickets in the first four overs of his morning spell and that laid the foundation for India's hugely

successful day when they are hoping to level the series. While experienced speedster Zaheer Khan hit probing lengths immediately, Shami was still in the same mode as at Eden Park, bowling a tad short and looking for bounce from the wicket than move-

ment in the air. However, he was negotiated easily by the batsmen as the Kiwi openers took 14 runs off his first three overs. It meant that Sharma was introduced into the attack as early as the eighth over and thereon, went on to bowl unchanged for nine overs, turning the morning session India’s way. Hamish Rutherford (12) was unable to keep down a well-aimed short ball and was caught byVijay at first slip. Two overs later, Sharma bowled an inswinger that hit Peter Fulton (13) on his pads and was trapped LBW, resulting in another poor start for the Kiwis. In his third over of the morning then, the bowler continued his good work and made debutant Tom Latham’s day a bad one, dismissing him for a duck in his first Test innings. Brief Scores: New Zealand 192 52.5 overs [Ishant Sharma 6/51, Mohammed Shami 4/70] lead India 100/2 in 28 overs [Shikhar 71 batting] by 92 runs.

I am the same bowler, I was earlier: Ishant

WELLINGTON: After taking his career-best haul in Tests, Indian medium-pacer Ishant Sharma said that he has been bowling well consistently for some time but his performance was being noticed only now because he is among wickets these days. Ishant took 6-51 on the first day of the second Test against New Zealand, his second consecutive six-wicket haul in this series, after taking 6-134 in the first innings at Auckland. He went on to take nine wickets in that match, which India lost by 40 runs. "I am the same bowler who bowled against (Ricky) Ponting in 2007-08 and the same bowler who was man-of-theseries in 2011. I am the same bowler. This pitch is the same as last match. I don't analyze my bowling a lot, because at

this stage, ahead of the game it is only about mental thinking," said Ishant, after his superb bowling effort. When asked, if playing 70odd ODIs and 55 Tests had helped make him a better bowler, he replied, "You only learn from experience. I have seen enough ups and downs in my life. Whenever there is an important tour, I get dropped. Whenever there is an easy tour, I am in the team. It's a really hard thing for me." "I have been bowling well since South Africa. It is just that people are recognizing more now, because I am taking more wickets. I didn't do anything different. Just looked to bowl in the right areas, in fact we all did, we all bowled very well. Only (Mohammad) Shami and I got the rewards. Zaheer (Khan) was very

unlucky to not take any wickets," he added.

DHONI AIMS TO EMULATE WINDIES, AUSTRALIA'S WORLD CUP GLORY Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni said that India would aim to be the only third side in history to clinch back-to-back Cricket World Cup titles by winning the tournament which will be held in Australia-New Zealand next year. Dhoni said his side was shaping up nicely and confident of emulating Australia and the West Indies to win back-to-back Cricket World Cups. "It is amazing to think that it is just one year until we defend our ICC Cricket World Cup title as that means it is almost three years since we won the trophy on that amazing night in Mumbai," said Dhoni.

Pre-World Cup tournament is a must: Baan N

EW DELHI: AIFF technical director Robert Bann has stressed on the need to organise a pre World Cup tournament in 2016 involving countries from Asia, Africa, Europe and South America as part of preparation for hosting the U-17 FIFA World Cup in 2017. This is part of Baan's presentation on how India should best prepare for its maiden stint in the U-17 FIFA World Cup. Similarly, the World Cup team should also travel to different parts of the World for exposure trips. "Players need to adapt to different cultures, different playing styles. Also you need International Tournaments every year leading

up to a Pre World Cup tournament in the country involving all the top nations," Baan said. The views were expressed in the two-day FICCI GOAL 2014 Indian Football Summit which ended here today. Baan also laid stress on having more and more competitions for the U-17 World Cup team. "Good Coach Education and training is not sufficient. You need to have regular Competitions at that agegroup which is preparing for the World Cup. That is very important." The former Australia and The Netherlands technical director pointed out that suc-

cess at the youth spectacle in three years time is relative for a country like India. "Success can be a semifinal or a final finish. Success can also be a group stage exit. It depends who you are. For India, 2-1 defeats in the Group stages would be a decent performance. A 6-0 humbling would be disastrous at the same time," Baan said. According to him, there should ideally be 40 matches per year for the Boys, two Academies with 30 players each (26+4 goalkeepers), and Tournaments like a National School Tournament, a National Sate Tournament and also a National Academy Tournament.
