Uproar in Parl over demonetisation
HOUSES ADJOURNED AFTER Mamata, Kejriwal demand roll back; warn of public revolt West Bengal chief GOVT FACES OPPosition IRE minister Mamata Banerjee
NEW DELHI, NOV 17 (AGENCIES): Opposition today paralysed Parliament, with Rajya Sabha disrupted over demand for the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his response in the demonetisation debate, which the government rejected outright. The Upper House witnessed repeated adjournments but Leader of Opposition Ghulam Nabi Azad’s reference to Uri terror attack in the context of demonetisation forced the final adjournment for the day. Members of opposition parties, led by Congress, created uproar in both the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha as soon as the Houses met for the day and it continued throughout. The Lok Sabha could carry out business only during the Question Hour, that too amid the uproar, after which it was adjourned for the day minutes past 12 PM. The Rajya Sabha could not transact any business. In the Upper House, Congress and some other

opposition parties pressed, from the word go, for the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the House and a response from him over the hardships caused to people by the November 8 decision to make Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes invalid. The uproar forced repeated adjournments of the House, whose proceedings for the day were ended minutes past 3 PM following a major clash between opposition and ruling members after Congress leader Azad made a reference to Uri terror attack. Taking strong objection to this, the ruling side termed the comments as “anti-national” and demanded an apology from Congress besides seeking deletion of the remarks from the official records of the Upper House. Deputy Chairman P.J. Kurien tried to continue the debate on demonetisation, but as his repeated attempts failed, he adjourned the House for the day, minutes past 3 p.m.
and her Delhi counterpart Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday jointly tore into Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s demonetisation move and warned of a public revolt if the decision was not rolled back in three days. But the government denied any possibility of reversing its decision to spike 500 and 1,000 rupee notes aimed at curbing black money, corruption and terror funding. Addressing a public rally at the Azadpur fruit wholesale market here, Kejriwal and Banerjee both alleged a conspiracy behind the demonetisation, which has led to a massive cash crunch in the country. Calling its after-effects a “crisis”, Kejriwal said people didn’t have cash even to buy basic essentials. “If this was indeed against corruption and black money, the first to support you would have been Arvind Kejriwal and the AAP,” he said. “Take back this deci-

sion in three days... Don’t test people’s patience. Otherwise, there will be a ‘bagaawat’ (revolt).” Kejriwal reminded the audience that he had been an Income Tax commissioner and it was beyond his understanding how corruption and black money could be checked by introducing Rs.2,000 notes. He said banks had given out loans totalling Rs 8 lakh crore to corporate houses. This money, he said, had been siphoned off by the super rich or had been partly written

Federation (NSF) committee for DNSU restoration on the assurance that the union assembly in its first sitting itself would take up the agenda put forth by the three units for redrafting/ re-amending the constitution of DNSU. They pointed out that the three units have been putting up a joint effort to counter the “shadow bloc system” of 2/3rd majority enshrined in the constitution of DNSU. During the first union assembly held on November 16, 2016, they said the three units had submitted an ultimatum to the speaker urging him to take up the agenda put forth by them as per the earlier representation given to the NSF. However, the three students’ body said that the speaker denied having received any written rep-
resentation/endorsement from the NSF committee for Dimapur Naga Students’ Union restoration. The signatories said the agenda was however taken up for discussion after being forced to and was put up for vote, but was out rightly rejected by vote system projecting the clear image of the “shadow bloc system”. As Such, the signatories said the three units having no other option have decided to disassociate from DNSU. Meanwhile, the three student bodies have called upon the Dimapur Naga Students’ Union assembly speaker to immediately dissolve the executive council of DNSU as it cannot function without the executive head to look after the day to day functioning of DNSU office.

If in three days you don’t withdraw (the move), we will step up our protests.” But Finance Minister said there was “no question of rolling back the demonetisation move” and accused Kejriwal and Banerjee of “spreading panic”.
Govt tightens note exchange norms; lowers limit to 2k NEW DELHI, NOV 17 (AGENCIES): With the shock demonetisation move in the middle of marriage and sowing seasons causing hardships, the government on Thursday eased restrictions on cash withdrawals by farmers and families with upcoming weddings but more than halved the limit at Rs. 2,000 for exchange. Economic Affairs Secretary Shaktikanta Das said now families preparing for a wedding can withdraw up to Rs. 2.5 lakh from their bank accounts giving PAN details and self declaration. However, with effect from Friday, individuals can exchange invalid Rs. 500 and 1,000 notes totalling Rs. 2,000, as against Rs. 4,500 earlier, only once till December 30. Besides, farmers who have taken crop loan or have ‘kisan’ credit cards can withdraw Rs. 25,000 per week. Also those who have received payments through RTGS or cheque deposits in KYCcompliant bank accounts can withdraw an additional Rs. 25,000 a week. This takes the total cash withdrawal limit for farmers from KYC complaint bank accounts to Rs. 50,000 per week.

Corruption has diluted Naga society: Acharya Correspondent MOKOKCHUNG, NOV 17: Nagaland Governor P.B Acharya, who has been vocal against corruption, on Thursday expressed serious concern saying corruption has diluted the rich fabric of the Naga society. “It is high time for the people to realize that the worst enemy for development is insurgency and corruption,” said Acharya, who is touring Mokokchung district. All should stand against corruption and the religious faiths in the state should play a bigger role in this fight against corruption and various social evils, he asserted. Lately, governor has been touring all the districts of Nagaland in order to get first hand information and to interact with the people on issues faced by them. Speaking at the public reception held here in
honour of the Governor and his lady wife, Kavita Acharya, he said Aos were the pioneers and Aos have played a major role in the formative years of the state. Well known personalities like P. Shilu Ao, the first chief minister of Nagaland, former chief minister and present Odisha Governor, Dr. S.C Jamir and Dr. T. Ao former Indian Olympian have made the state proud and they were from the Ao community, he said. Acharya said people need to look up to such personalities who have not only contributed for their own community but the state and the nation as well. Referring to the phrase-“India is a rich country but the people are poor’, he said Naga people need to realized that “Nagaland is rich but the people are poor”.

He said Jalukie with its fertile soil, known as the rice bowl of the state, has all the potential to become economically sound. If the people take the advantage and put a little extra effort, their economic conditions would be much better. The chief minister also lauded the town for having the only mid-night bazaar
in the State where organic vegetables, fruits, rice etc. are sold. In this regard, he encouraged the farmers to strive hard and to venture out, saying their produce would be of high demand within and outside the state.

D I M A P U R , N OV 1 7 (NPN): NPF has come out in defence of NPF president, D.r Shurhozelie Liezetsu in the wake of counter attack and rejoinder by ACAUT over his remarks on service regularization of contract/ ad hoc employees. NPF press and media bureau said it was constrained to issue the statement to express support on the candid clarification made by Dr. Shurhozelie vis-à-vis the government’s action/decision. According to NPF, the problem faced by the unemployed youths in the state has reached “stratospheric levels”, where the Government is the single avenue for employment. At this juncture, it alleged that some youths got appointments after going through normal procedures and hard work and those deserving youths have the opportunity. In both casesthose already in service and who were yet to be accom-
modated, “are all our children,” NPF said, adding it equally cares for all of them. It claimed that the party has put all possible efforts to understand the needs of the people at the grass root level, while framing policies and programmes, and the decisions were in the interest of the needs and sentiments of the people, with special reference on the youth. In the light of the above, NPF argued that there was no room for nepotism and favouritism as propagated by “vested interests”, since, the decision was taken after thorough deliberation and cross examination by the party. Further, NPF said Dr. Shurhozelie as president of a political party and in power had “genuinely” expressed concern on those deserving educated Naga youths “who had found berths in different government departments, having already rendered their services for a considerable period of time”.

Dr. Rev. Zelhou along with the organizers and church leaders after the programme. (NP). Correspondent KOHIMA, NOV 17 (NPN): Advocacy programme on HIV/AIDS and harm reduction with church leaders was jointly organized by Kripa Foundation, NBCC, NSACS and FHI 360 at NBCC platinum hall Bayavii Kohima on Thursday. General secretary NBCC, Rev. Z. Keyho as the guest of honour in his address said the church must become a truly redemptive, inclusive community with a kinder and gentler community of faith and love. He challenged that church must dispense grace not only
within the four walls of the church but outside of the church by way of reaching out to people in need. Rev. Keyho said pastors and church workers must view the drug addicts, alcoholics, HIV/AIDS people as constituent members needing to be reached out and ministered to. He reminded that church workers must build bridges and not only confined to the people within the church. Rev Keyho said in the past the church looked upon the pandemic of HIV/AIDS as a judgment of God on its victims, but now the church was also reaching out, caring
and showing compassion though much is yet to be done. He reminded that this seminar was an opportunity for the church leaders to educate themselves so that the church could dispense more grace and compassion. He said church was a redemptive community, not only confined to ministering to the redeemed but also redeeming the fallen and hurting people who were suffering outside of the church. He shared the quote of Henri J. M. Nouwen , “what I have to offer to others is not my intelligence, skill, power, influence, or connections, but my own brokenness

India takes up Bamang’s visa denial issue with China
NEW DELHI, NOV 17 (PTI): India has taken up with China the issue of visa denial to Bamang Tago, a resident of Arunachal Pradesh and manager of the Indian badminton team which is to travel to Fuzhou for a sports event, and hoped that the Chinese side will address it in the spirit of reciprocity and smooth development of bilateral relations. “This matter has been brought to our notice now. Government’s position on differential treatment of Indian passport holders is clear and well known. We have conveyed it to the Chinese side. “We expect them to address this issue in the spirit of reciprocity and smooth development of bilateral relations,” External Affairs
Ministry Spokesperson Vikas Swarup said. He was asked about the complaint of Tago, who was denied visa for the China Super Series Premier Badminton Tournament. Tago, who is also the Secretary of Arunachal Pradesh Badminton Association, had also approached MEA after he was denied visa by the Chinese Embassy in New Delhi “on round of Arunachal domiciles”, a day after applying for the travel document on November 10. However, when contacted, there was no response from the Chinese embassy here. China claims Arunachal Pradesh as part of southern Tibet and routinely protests visits by Indian leaders, foreign officials as well as the Dalai Lama to the area.

Concern for dogs can’t override human life: SC
NEW DELHI, NOV 17 (IANS): The Supreme Court on Thursday said an impression should not be created that human life has lesser value than that of a dog but stressed that stray dogs can be killed only in accordance with the Animal Birth Control Rules. “Let not an impression go out that human life is of lesser value than that of dogs. Human life is divine,” the bench of Justice Dipak Misra and Justice Amitava Roy observed while restraining vigilante groups in Kerala from propagating and imparting training for killing of dogs. Noting that even dogs are created by divinity, the bench said that a dog can only be killed in accordance with law as it was told that some individuals have made it their “mission” to kill street dogs. Senior counsel Anand Grover named
some of them and told the court that one of them, Jose Maveli, has been arrested seven times, but as the offence of killing dogs is bailable, the person gets out after paying a fine of Rs 50. The court asked Maveli to be present in the court on the next date of hearing on March 1, 2017, as Grover told the bench that this man is a petitioner before the apex court in the matter but does not comply with the directions of the court and violates the law with impunity. Taking note the instance pointed to by Grover and Colin Gonsalves where certain committees, organizations and clubs have been formed to “launch a crusade to kill the stray dogs” and children are being trained how to eliminate the stray dogs, the court said that Justice Sri Jagan Commit-
tee “shall enquire into the said aspect”. “The report of the enquiry shall be submitted before us through the counsel of the Committee, Mr Gaurav Agarwal so that proper orders can be passed,” it said. “Needless to say, the state will be under obligation to file criminal cases, if the situation so warrants,” the court ordered. “... we really fail to fathom that when there is a law in place to deal with the stray dogs, how the associations and groups can be formed to train the children to kill the stray dogs or an association which can distribute subsidised airguns for people to kill stray dogs or publicly propagate that there must be war against stray dogs,” the court said in its order. “We restrain such organisations to impart training to the children or to distribute subsidised airguns for people to kill stray dogs or to publicly propagate that there is war against the stray dogs or strangulate the stray dogs or for that matter offer prizes or incentives to those who kill the stray dogs. Needless to say, our directions are not exhaustive but illustrative.” Telling the court that Kerala government “does not intend to remain silent”, senior counsel V. Giri, who appeared for the state government, told the court that the state government was “making immense efforts to curtail the spread of stray dogs and also trying that no stray dog attacks human beings.”

Losing grip
ith the DAN government on the backfoot over various issues that had been highlighted in the media, the statements from the government suggest that chief minister T.R.Zeliang and his team, have somehow lost the grip on crucial issues and which is in itself is quite revealing. The government has been hit by a series of reports regarding the manner in which the cabinet decided to hold civic polls with the contentious 33 % women reservation in urban local bodies in Nagaland; while the case filed by the Naga Mothers Association(NMA) was yet to be heard in the Supreme Court. The issue then got spilled over to another equally contentious subject - the Public Interest Litigation(PIL) filed against the NP& NG by Lotha Hoho. The government’s responses through the media cell in the Chief Minister’s Office(CMO) on the points raised by the former additional advocate general of the state including the independent MLA, indicate that the government appeared to be on sticky wicket for whatever reasons. The former additional advocate general pointed out that, the Supreme Court in its April 5, 2016 order had only kept in abeyance, the order of the Division Bench of the Gauhati High Court against 33% women quota. Surprisingly, the cabinet decided to hold elections to Urban Local Bodies(ULBs) with 33% women reservation after the chief minister received a letter dated April 9,2016 from one of the petitioners who informed him about the court order and citing that it had directed the state to conduct of polls with 33% women reservation. The independent MLA in a statement questioned the cabinet on how it could bypass the 2012 house resolution and ordering for polls? The MLA also accused the chief minister, some leaders and a few women of placing their interests above that of the public and inviting infringement on Article 371A. He also claimed that the SLP could not avoid involving article 371 as tribal hohos maintained that reservation in public bodies pertained to customary laws and practices. The chief minister himself had admitted to a media person that litigation could go on and that since it was a very expensive matter, it was decided not to fight the case but call for election. The other reason which the chief minister also explained was that only after holding elections, the state(Municipal Affairs Department) could get funds from the centre(union urban development ministry). Against the backdrop of several tribal hohos expressing opposition against civic polls till the 33% women reservation issue was resolved with all stakeholders; the chief minister convened a consultative meeting with tribal hohos on November 16. It may have been an exercise to push through the agenda by getting their nod to amend Municipal Act 2001 on issues of tax and land holding and reservation of SC/ST by revoking the 2012 resolution. However, those who attended smelt a rat when they suspected that the government was going through the entire exercise only to get their affirmation so that the government could go ahead and move for revocation of the 2012 resolution for civic polls. The issues above including the PIL filed by Lotha Hoho on rules framed for oil exploration should be dealt with in a very fair, transparent and through collective wisdom so as not to leave room for future conflicts.
Post-mortem
November 20 is NBCC Disability Sunday BJP’s financial policy I T
he Baptist Church of Nagaland has designated the third Sunday of November every year as PwD (Persons with Disability) Sunday, a day for churches and fellowships to focus on celebrating the abilities and involvement of disabled people. This year it falls on the coming Sunday – November 20. The Nagaland Baptist Church Council has taken a very important step towards building an inclusive church by setting up a Disability Commission to guide its churches. I believe this is a watershed moment in the Nagaland Christian disability movement. The church is an integral part of the social order and thus it has a huge social responsibility. In our Naga context especially, the church plays such a central role in the lives of the people and so it has a much bigger responsibility to lead the way for our society in standing up against social injustices and to show what a human community ought to be and then to expect a better society to come. And for this to happen, the church must be socially involved through practical social action, not only words. According to Census 2011, there are 29,631 people with various disabilities in Nagaland. This figure is underreported, in my opinion, and the actual number would be much higher. In any case, this is the official number – 29,631 people with disability in Nagaland. Here’s a question I always ask - how many of these people with disabilities do you encounter in your everyday life – in the streets, markets, schools, playgrounds, offices, churches, public events or in family celebrations? I think your answer would be ‘rarely’ or even ‘never’. This is because they are Nagaland’s forgotten people. This large group of people in our State continues to live on the fringes of our society completely deprived of their rights and dignity and facing exclusion and discrimination from society as a whole. We need look at the aspect of physical accessibility alone and the scenario in the State becomes clear. People with disability find
themselves shut out - shut out of buildings, offices, homes, schools, hospitals, businesses, CHURCHES, sports and community groups and activities. They find themselves shut out of our way of life. Like the rest of society, the church too has thus far forgotten the people who may look or act a little differently. Where are the persons with disability? They are certainly not sitting in church. They are not among the congregation listening to the word of God, singing and praying along with other fellow worshippers. Children with disabilities are not taking part in Sunday School activities, listening to Bible stories or playing and having fun with their friends. Speaking only of the physical building, among the thousands of churches in the State, all denominations, only a countable few have any kind of enabling environment that beckons and welcomes people with disability. Lack of accessibility and unfriendly spaces excludes disabled people from the life of the church. We like to think of our churches as places where all are welcome. Take a look at your church building. Does it have barriers that you do not notice because you’re so accustomed to the way things are? Can a person with mobility disability enter your church and sit among the congregation and worship with dignity? Many people with disabilities never go to church because they either cannot get there or they cannot get in. However, though churches certainly have a legal and social responsibility to ensure that their buildings are safe and accessible, inclusion for those living with disabilities goes far beyond installing ramps and accessible toilets. Many do not feel welcome at church because they cannot hear the message. Others cannot participate because they cannot read. Some have difficulty following the unwritten rules. Others simply cannot sit quiet and still for an hour or more. Some cannot understand what is happening. The NBCC Disability Commission has already sent out guidelines on simple, basic steps that can be taken by its churches to make its worship services inclusive.
DailyDevotion Uniform Civil Code (UCC) The Eternal Goal hile appreciating the Dimapur By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing…I will bless you… —Genesis 22:16-17 Abraham, at this point, has reached where he is in touch with the very nature of God. He now understands the reality of God. My goal is God Himself… At any cost, dear Lord, by any road. “At any cost…by any road” means submitting to God’s way of bringing us to the goal. There is no possibility of questioning God when He speaks, if He speaks to His own nature in me. Prompt obedience is the only result. When Jesus says, “Come,” I simply come; when He says, “Let go,” I let go; when He says, “Trust God in this matter,” I trust. This work of obedience is the evidence that the nature of God is in me. God’s revelation of Himself to me is influenced by my character, not by God’s character. ’Tis because I am ordinary, Thy ways so often look ordinary to me. It is through the discipline of obedience that I get to the place where Abraham was and I see who God is. God will never be real to me until I come face to face with Him in Jesus Christ. Then I will know and can boldly proclaim, “In all the world, my God, there is none but Thee, there is none but Thee.” The promises of God are of no value to us until, through obedience, we come to understand the nature of God. We may read some things in the Bible every day for a year and they may mean nothing to us. Then, because we have been obedient to God in some small detail, we suddenly see what God means and His nature is instantly opened up to us. “All the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen…” (2 Corinthians 1:20). Our “Yes” must be born of obedience; when by obedience we ratify a promise of God by saying, “Amen,” or, “So be it.” That promise becomes ours.

Bar Association (DBA) for organizing the meeting of the Naga tribal bodies and civil society organizations(CSOs) to deliberate on Uniform Civil Code (UCC) on November 5, 2016in Dimapur and the Nagaland Tribes Council (NTC) for presenting the collective view of the CSOs to the Law Commission of India, I would like to add a point that is critically important when we deliberate on issues such as UCC. As we all know, parliamentary laws are not applicable in Nagaland unless our legislatures give their approval. So, the UCC will not affect us, even if it is enforced in other parts of India, as long as there is no resolution passed in favour of UCC by the Nagaland Legislative Assembly (NLA). Therefore, expressing our views to the Law Commission or Central government on any issues is important, but what is perhaps more important is to educate and inform our legislatures, who will ultimately decide whether to implement UCC in Nagaland or not. Take for instance, the controversial 33% women reservation or the taxation of lands and buildings in municipal and town councils, these parliamentary laws came into Nagaland only because the NLA approved them. Therefore, I would like to urge our legislatures to take note of the concerns raised by the Naga public on UCC. At the same time, I appeal to our public leaders to be vigilant of the activities of our Assembly, so that, unwanted laws do not slip into our land. Lastly, I completely agree with NTC and through this write-up, I want to extend my solidarity with the forces opposing the implementation of UCC in Nagaland. K. Angami, Kohima

Now, there is no question that people with disabilities face huge barriers in the form of physical obstacles in buildings and public spaces. But architectural barriers are often relatively easy to surmount with some creative problem-solving. The most difficult barriers to overcome are attitudes other people carry regarding people with disability. Whether born from ignorance, fear or misunderstanding, these attitudes keep people from appreciating and experiencing the full potential of a person with a disability. The most pervasive negative attitude is focusing on a person’s disability rather than on an individual’s abilities. And this is the attitude that rules Naga society. The worldly culture is highly intolerant of what is perceived as physical and mental imperfection. Is your church simply going to flow along with this culture or are you ready to step up as a change agent in society? Disabled people deal with societal patronisation and pseudo-compassion on a daily basis, but the worst is being marginalised and disenfranchised by your own church. This rejection hurts the most! There is much that the church can do to change attitudes and perceptions, educate the masses on inclusion and acceptance and encouraging people with disabilities in their gifts and abilities. It can create communities in which people who are not alike can be found living and working together. This will allow the Church to assume its rightful position in shaping culture, and to become a visible expression of God’s love for all humanity through constructive protest against the social conditions faced by men and women with disabilities. (David W. Anderson: A Forgotten Barrier: Attitudes toward Disability) The church must lead the movement away from ignorance, insensitivity, and indifference toward acceptance and reconciliation, actively seeking to remove barriers which exclude disabled persons from all aspects of society. It has the opportunity and capacity to transform the lives of thousands of people with disabilities, their families
and carers. Some suggestions on how to observe Disability Sunday have already been sent out to its churches by the NBCC Disability Commission. These include planning a worship service themed around God’s love and acceptance of all people, inviting and involving persons with disabilities to share their gifts in appropriate ways - as ushers, musicians/singers, to present the gospel reading for the day, etc, inviting a disability expert to give a short talk on disability, disability rights and inclusion matters and organising an after-worship service refreshment gathering and encouraging all congregation members to mingle and get to know one another. In the past few weeks, the churches have been encouraged to collect the names of all their members with various disabilities or family members with disabilities, visit and have fellowship with them and also talk to them about the disability inclusion programme of the church and encourage them to participate in the special Sunday worship and all other Sundays as well, to set up a committee or focus group on disability and also to carry out an accessibility audit of their church building and spaces around it. However, there is a very IMPORTANT point to keep in mind: while inviting and involving persons with disability, the special Sunday should NOT be taken as an occasion when disabled people are brought out and put on display, such as making them perform something only for the special programme. The aim should be to include them in various activities because they are capable of doing them which others can observe and learn from. And this inclusion of persons with disabilities in worship service and other church activities should then be taken forward and not limited only to the special Sunday. Lastly, while it certainly is not my place to preach, I do sincerely believe that inclusion and making the disabled welcome in your church is not an optional add on or a choice, it is a Gospel imperative! God bless us all. Diethono Nakhro is a Member of the NBCC Disability Commission
am a senior citizen. I am a well-wisher of Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and his party. I never had imagined that Modi and his cabinet could be so light-minded, so incapable of taking things without giving a serious thought. The current financial policy of Modi called “Demonetization of 500 & 1000 notes” is not to curb corruption or checking black money. After having observed the problems of the common man who are frustrated, angry and mentally tortured because of the so-called “demonetization” some are weeping and crying as they could not attend to the needs of their children in schools and colleges, could not finance their loved ones in the hospitals and sick beds. They find it difficult to get square meals for survival. This policy is only to give trouble and victimize the poor people and the wage-earners and not to check the rich people who had hoarded money. No amount of justifications, soothing words and boasting can heal the miseries of the poor or common man. If the govt have had such program in mind they should first fill up all the banks and ATM booths with smaller denominations. Say, Rs. 100/- down to Rs. 10/- notes and swap the old Rs 500/ and 1000/- notes deposited by the poor people then and there so that they may not suffer unnecessarily. This current demonetization policy clearly shows that there are no farsighted and serious thinking leaders in the BJP. To levy income tax who deposited above Rs. 2, 50000/- means that the common man, say labourers and small marginal trader should not have money more than Rs. 250000/-. For example, could a common man construct an ordinary house for shelter of the family with only Rs. 250000/-? The intellectuals and the experts should put their heads together and find out suitable ways if the govt really wants to check corruption and black money. The ceiling of Rs. 250000/- for income tax is discouraging and indirect intimidation to the poor people to have money more than that. What is Rs. 250000/- in the present age? It will not even cover the expenditure of a student in a good school. Therefore, the present demonetization policy is to make the poor people poorer than before and incapacitated them in all ways. The rich has always a way to escape whereas the poor is bound to be the victim. The long serpentine queues for hours together at the banks and ATM booths by both men and women, young and old, able and disabled persons are physically and mentally torturous. It seems, it is a deliberate attempt by PM Modi and his colleagues to punish the innocent common man. Issuing Rs. 2000/- currency notes only to the poor people is also a mockery because it has a lot of problems for changing to lower denomination notes. Therefore, the current demonetization policy is a farce. There may be some positive and constructive elements in the policy, but they are misplaced and it is ill-planned and ill-timing without any preparation. As such, it comes out to be whimsical and an act of autocracy or hypocrisy. A. Z. Jami, Senior Citizen

in the day, Jailery ruled out any plan to re-monetise Rs 1,000 notes and defended the decision to reduce the exchange limit for demonetised notes to Rs 2,000. “The government’s decision to limit the exchange of banned Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes to Rs 2,000, from the existing cap of Rs 4,500, would stop misuse of funds,” Jaitley told reporters here. “As of now, there is no plan to reintroduce Rs 1,000 note,” he said.

New Delhi, Nov 17 (IANS): Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Thursday said there is no dearth of cash due to demonetisation, and banks are being supplied adequate currency by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). He expressed regret at the political opposition over the move but ruled out a roll-back. “The Reserve Bank is providing adequate notes to currency chests. There are around 4,400 of them. There is absolutely no shortage,” Jaitley told reporters here while asking people not to believe gossip mongers who are spreading mis-information. “Unnecessary panic is being spread. But I didn’t expect Chief Ministers of some states joining this,” Jaitley said, in an obvious reference to West Ben-

Further, how long will they need to print Rs 500 notes, now that the machines would not be printing Rs 2,000 notes? Assuming an 80 per cent run (remember Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 comprised 84 per cent of all currencies), the time taken for the new Rs 500 notes, which began printing, presumably, on November 10, would be: 5.9 months. The rest of the 20 per cent capacity could be used for the lower denomination notes from Rs 5 to Rs 100. So, by April-end, one would presume, all the new notes would be in circulation. And, of course, the pain would be longer than the 50 days that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has mentioned.

1,671 declines and 943 advances. On Wednesday, the Indian equity markets had closed on a flat note due to prevailing anxiety over the impact of demonetisation, foreign fund outflows and negative global cues. The barometer index was down by 5.94 points or 0.02 per cent, whereas the NSE Nifty gained only 3.15 points or 0.04 per cent. Initially on Thursday, the benchmark indices opened on a flat note, as investors were cautious over a possible US rate hike in December. The cues on the possible rate hike are expected from an upcoming speech of US Federal Reserve’s Chairman Janet Yellen. A hike can potentially lead foreign portfolio investors (FPI) and funds away from emerging markets such as India, and dent the business margins of corporate sector, as access to capital from the US will become more expensive.

in Rs 500 denomination -- equivalent to Rs 7.89 lakh crore or Rs 7,890 billion and 39 per cent in Rs 1,000 notes amounting to Rs 6.84 lakh crore or Rs 6,840 billion. In other words, there were 15.78 billion notes of Rs 500 denomination in circulation and 6.84 billion notes of Rs 1,000. But if they are going to print Rs 2,000 notes equivalent to value of the Rs 1,000 notes declared illegal, that is, worth Rs 6.84 lakh crore, they would have to print only half, or 3.42 billion notes. If the printing started in early September, as has been claimed by some printing press officials, they would need only a little over two months to meet the full requirement, even at 50 per cent capacity. In other words, they should have printed all the replacement needs of Rs 2,000 notes till now.

Mumbai, Nov 17 (IANS): Worries over a possible US rate hike, along with political bickering over the demonetisation decision and lower crude oil prices pulled the Indian equity markets lower on Thursday. The key Indian indices started the day’s trade on a flat note, and finally closed the day’s trade in the red after a brief stay in the positive territory. The wider 51-scrip Nifty of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) edged lower by 31.65 points or 0.39 per cent to 8,079.95 points. The barometer 30-scrip sensitive index (Sensex) of the BSE, which opened at 26,304.90 points, closed at 26,227.62 points -- down by 71.07 points or 0.27 per cent from the previous close at 26,298.69 points. The Sensex touched a high of 26,449.87 points and a low of 26,155.40 points during the intra-day trade. The BSE market breadth was skewed in favour of the bears -- with

per cent of the total in the country. The other two presses -- in Salboni and Mysuru -- are part of the Bharatiya Reserve Bank Note Mudran Pvt. Ltd. (BRBNMPL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). These two, comprising 60 per cent of the total capacity, can print 16 billion notes in two shifts per year, according to information available on BRBNMPL’s website. In essence, it means that total capacity in the country would be 26.66 billion notes in two shifts. If all three shifts run, as the government says is happening now, the four presses would be able to print 40 billion notes a year, irrespective of the denomination. Now, according to the government, the total money in circulation -- before Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes were declared illegal -- was Rs 17.54 lakh crore or Rs 17,540 billion. Of this, 45 per cent was

N ew i n f o r m a t i o n gleaned from public sources show that the government may be too optimistic in claiming that “adequate amount” of money would soon be in circulation. That’s because of the limited capacity of the printing presses in the country for such a sudden, huge job. There are four currency presses -- one each in Nashik (Maharashtra), Dewas (Madhya Pradesh), Salboni (West Bengal) and Mysuru (Karnataka).

NEW DELHI, NOV 17 (IANS): Will new notes which replace the demonetised currency find itself in circulation soon? Unlikely, if the capacity of all the currency printing presses in the country is taken into account. The latest calculation, based on capacities of the currency printing presses, shows that replenishment would take around six months. This is particularly true for the new Rs 500 notes, whose printing, presumably, started after November 10. Till those are replenished in adequate numbers, the “currency pain” would not go away since Rs 2,000 notes are difficult to exchange for lower denominations. However, enough of the new Rs 2,000 notes may already have been printed, calculations show. The central government had demonetised Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency notes on November 8, sending the whole nation

BERLIN, NOV 17 (AGENCIES): Chancellor Angela Merkel likely had plenty of questions for US President Barack Obama on his last trip to Germany - the biggest being what he makes of Donald Trump, and what his successor’s presidency will mean for Germany’s relationship with the United States. But unlike Obama’s celebrated visits to the nation’s capital in the past, the president did not address crowds or even give a speech. The president had dinner with Merkel on Wednesday evening and spent the night in the Adlon hotel just meters from the Brandenburg Gate (under the watch of some 5,000 additional police officers, who reported no incidents). The president gave an
interview to German public broadcaster ARD and “Spiegel” magazine in the morning before he was received at the Chancellery in the afternoon. In quotes released before the full interview is aired on Thursday evening, Obama praised the German chancellor: “She has great credibility, and she is willing to fight for those values in a way that is very, very important,” he said. “I’m glad that she’s there and I think the German people should appreciate her. Certainly, I’ve appreciated her as a partner.” The president also tried to addressed the fears of globalization that has helped fuel the rise of right-wing populism around the world. “If the global economy is unresponsive to people who

feel left behind, if inequality continues to grow, then we could end up seeing more and more of these divisions arise throughout advanced economies around the world,” Obama said. The two leaders are expected to give a joint press conference in the early evening, following a 90-minute discussion covering the entire gamut of world crises, from Syria to Ukraine to the rise of the populist right across the world - as well as the radically different working relationship that Merkel can expect to share with Trump next year. The Republican president-elect repeatedly criticized Merkel’s attempts to abide by the principles of German asylum law during his election campaign. In a joint op-ed for “Wirtschaftswoche” magazine published on Thursday, Obama and Merkel stressed the two nations’ “shared commitment to personal freedom and dignity, which only a vibrant democracy under the rule of law can guarantee.” “Our countries share a joint responsibility to protect and preserve our way of life,” the two leaders wrote, before listing the institutions threatened by the advent of a Trump presidency: from NATO to the Paris climate agreement. There was also a note of reassurance: “Today we find ourselves at a crossroads the future is upon us, and we will never return to a preglobalization economy.”
SAN FRANCISCO, NOV 17 (AFP): Fake election news got more attention than did real stories on Facebook during the final months of the US presidential campaign, according to an analysis published Wednesday by BuzzFeed News. The tech news outlet found that the 20 topperforming bogus stories from hoax websites and extremely partisan blogs generated slightly more than 8.7 million shares, reactions and comments at the leading social network in the three months before the November 8 election. In comparison, the 20 best-performing election stories from major news websites including The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Huffington Post got just
shy of 7.4 million shares, reactions and comments at Facebook, according to BuzzFeed. Prior to the final three months of the presidential campaign, top election stories from major outlets had strongly outperformed fake news, BuzzFeed reported. Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg last week rejected the idea that bogus stories shared at the social network paved a path of victory for Republican President-elect Donald Trump. “The idea that fake news on Facebook, which is a very small amount of the content, influenced the election in any way I think is a pretty crazy idea,” Zuckerberg said during an onstage chat at a Technonomy technology trends conference in California.
Arrest warrant against Zia for celebrating ‘birthday’ on Aug 15
Dhaka, Nov 17 (PTI): An arrest warrant was today issued against BNP chief Khaleda Zia over her controversial birthday celebration on August 15, which is observed as the National Mourning Day in Bangladesh marking the assassination of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman along with most of his family members in 1975. A local court passed the order after the complainant submitted a petition seeking an arrest warrant against the 71-year-old chief of the main opposition party outside the parliament. “(Zia) was summoned by the court but she did not appear during three previous hearings... So the magistrate issued the arrest warrant in line with legal procedure,” a court official told PTI. He said Zia’s “defiance” prompted the prosecution
Khaleda Zia
to seek the arrest warrant. Metropolitan Magistrate of Dhaka Mazharul Islam also asked the police to submit a compliance report on March 2 next year. Legal experts said the police was unlikely to arrest the former prime minister immediately as they were given nearly four months to comply with the order and by that time she could secure bail, appearing in person before the court. Zia’s birthday celebration
on August 15 has been a major irritant for the ruling Awami League since she began to celebrate it on the day in 1996, the year Awami League led by archrival and Bangabandhu’s daughter Sheikh Hasina returned to power after 21 years of political wilderness. A journalist in August this year filed a case questioning the genuineness of the birthday, alleging that Zia chose the day only to ridicule Bangladesh’s ‘Father of the Nation’. The complainant said according to Zia’s marriage certificate she was born on August 9, 1944, her first passport says the date was August 5, her school final exam marksheet points the day to be September 5, 1946, while her official biography published in 1991 says the date is August 19, 1945.
Indian-American woman considered for top post
New York, Nov 17 (IANS): Indian American Governor Nikki Haley is one of the contenders for Secretary of State or other cabinet positions in the Donald Trump administration, according to media reports on Wednesday. Haley, a trenchant critic of fellow-Republican Trump during the election campaign, is scheduled to meet with him here on Thursday, according to his spokesman Jason Miller. CNN and MSNBC reported independently that the South Carolina governor is being considered for the top diplomatic job.
They quoted unnamed sources in Trump’s transition team that is working on gearing up his new administration that will take over in January. Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence are reaching out to those who were critical of them for filling positions in the new administration. A rising star in the Republican Party, 44-year-old Haley was elected earlier on Wednesday as the vice chair of the Republican Governor’s Association. The daughter of Sikh immigrants from Amritsar, her full name is Nimrata Nikki Randhwa Haley.
She converted to Christianity when she married Michael Haley, but both she and her husband have attended gurdwara services. In 2014 both of them visited the Golden Temple in Amritsar. If she were to get a cabinet post, she would be the first Indian American to be in the US cabinet. It would mark a political breakthrough for Indian Americans in a year that has seen four of them elected
Nikki Haley to Congress. Kamala Harris became the first Indian American elected to the Senate and Raja Krish-
namoorthi, Pramila Jayapal and Ro Khanna won elections to the House of Representatives where they will join Ami Bera who was re-elected. The four are Democrats. Haley’s meeting with Trump and the consideration for the post of Secretary of State is a turn around for the highest ranking Indian American politician, who had publicly feuded with Trump.

after an early goal from Nicolas Velez (5’) had put NorthEast United on the path of a victory following four losses on the trot. Jo s e M o l i n a wa s
forced to draft in Javi Lara in place of the injured Sameehg Doutie. In addition, he also brought in Stephen Pearson in midfield and Arnab Mondal to
partner Henrique Sereno in defense. Nelo Vingada meanwhile made as many as four changes to the side that lost out against FC Goa with Emiliano Alfaro returning from suspension while Romaric made his way back from injury. Didier Zokora was dropped with Nirmal Chettri and Robin Gurung coming into the side as the two full-backs. The match got off to a blistering start as the away side needed all of five minutes to open the scoring. Jose Molina would be cursing his stars as defensive lapses were at the forefront yet again. Following a clutch of passes in between the Atletico defenders, Sereno who was under pressure from Alfaro, opted to play a square ball back to his partner Arnab Mondal without sensing Nicolas Velez lurking. On top of that the pass was decidedly poor, giving Arnab no chance in spite of
an attempted slide to reach it, which saw the Argentine round off an onrushing Debjit Majumder to slot it into an empty net. A clutch of substitutions slowed down the game considerably with the home team looking miserable with little desire to get back into the game. Atletico de Kolkata somehow equalised right at the death following a Javi Lara free-kick which saw Postiga head it expertly to the far corner. While it seemed that the ball would be going into the goal, Hume was taking no chance as he stabbed it in from close range. It all started after Prabir Das was brought down needlessly by Seityasen Singh. The draw does not do favours for either team as Atletico de Kolkata remained on fourth while Nor thEast United FC moved to the seventh position.
Sindhu, Jayaram reach quarterfinals of China Open
FUZHOU, NOV 17 (PTI): Olympic silver medallist PV Sindhu and male singles shuttler Ajay Jayaram advanced to the quarterfinals after registering thrilling three-game wins over their respective opponents in the second round of the USD 700,000 China Super Series Premier on Thursday. Seventh seeded Sindhu survived a scare from USA’s Beiwen Zhang before notching up a 18-21 22-20 21-17 victory in a women’s singles match that lasted an hour here. The Indian will next take on China’s He Bingjiao, against whom she had lost in the second round of the French Open last month.
Jayaram too had to work hard to surpass Wei Nan as he notched up a 20-22 21-19 2112 win over the Hong Kong shuttler in a 56minute clash. The three-time Dutch Open champion, Jayaram will face reigning Olympic champion and two-time World champion and All England champion Chen Long of China in the next round. However, it was curtains for Swiss Open winner H S Prannoy after he suffered a 17-21 19-21 loss to Qiao Bin of China in another men’s singles match. B Sai Praneeth had lost his opening round match 16-21 9-21 against
Marc Zwiebler of Germany yesterday. Sindhu blew away a 11-7 lead at the break to allow Zhang comeback and level the scores at 13-13. The American soon moved to a 15-13 and 18-15 lead before reeling off the last three points in to pocket the first game. In the second game, Sindhu once again zoomed to a 8-0 lead but once again she squandered the advantage as Zhang clawed back to first level the scores at 16-16. She soon lead 1917 but the Indian ensured there was no hiccup this time as she roared back into the contest. In the decider, Sindhu held a slender 8-6 lead and then broke off at 9-9 to never look back.

Kohli sparkles with 151 no, Pujara ton takes India to 317/4 V isak h apatna m , Nov 17 (PTI): Skipper Virat Kohli batted like a man possessed, slamming an unbeaten 151 in company of another centurion Cheteshwar Pujara to steer India to a commendable 317 for four against England on the first day of the second cricket Test here. In his 50th Test, Kohli led from the front by striking a classy 14th hundred and also added 226 runs for the third wicket with Pujara (119), who has now reached three-figure mark in his last three matches. Incidentally, this was Pujara’s 10th Test hundred. The duo made the English bowlers toil hard on an unresponsive pitch after Murali Vijay (20) and KL Rahul (0) were dismissed cheaply with the scoreboard reading 22. Kohli mixed caution with aggression during his undefeated stay at the wicket in which he hit 15 boundaries and two sixes. His was a marathon near six-hour stay at the wicket (five hours and 52 minutes) He also claimed moral victory over his old nemesis Jimmy Anderson (3/44), who was the best English bowler on view. Anderson did try his variations but Kohli remained unruffled for the better part of his innings

save once when on 56, his mistimed pull shot off Ben Stokes was dropped by Adil Rasheed at deep fine leg boundary. At the other end, continuing his purple patch after he was dropped from the second Test at St Lucia in West Indies, Pujara hit a strokeful 119 off 204 balls that was laced with 12 boundaries and two sixes. Batting in tandem, Kohli brought up his century with a cover drive after Pujara reached his milestone with a six. This time, after scoring his second ton against England, he just lifted his bat, acknowledged the crowd and went about the task to grind the visitors down. The determination and the coming-of-age of Kohli was quite evident. Ditto when he got to his 150 as he half-raised his bat to acknowledge the cheers. It was a tough day for
the English bowling attack and quite arduous for Anderson, who is recovering from a shoulder injury. At stumps, Ravichandran Ashwin was in company of his skipper and India’s healthy 3.5 run-rate would also be a cause of concern for the Englishmen. Kohli’s legend at Vizag also reached enormous proportions today as he struck his third international century from four ODIs and one Test as his scores before this match at the venue were 118, 117, 99, 65 (in ODIs). He also became the sixth Indian to score a century in his 50th Test.
