Parliament committee ‘partly blames’ NHAI for NPAs in road sector: The Parliament’s Standing Committee on Transport raised several questions on the functioning of

the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI), hinting that some of its policies were the reasons leading to bad debts piling in the road sector.

The criticism comes when banks and concessionaires are being blamed by the government for non performing assets, or NPAs. The committee in its report Infrastructure Lending in Road Sector presented to Parliament said that there are several issues with the NHAI like underestimating project costs, bad planning and showing haste in awarding projects to developers.

It said that various stake holders complained that the NHAI underestimates the project costs and the concessionaires who bid out a project on L1 basis approaches banks and financial institutions with an inflated project cost for taking loans. L1 refers to lowest bidder. The committee said that it finds strange that there is a big gap between the cost calculated by NHAI and the banks for the same project.

While blaming NHAI, the committee also directed the authority to keep a watch over the excess loan amount over the estimated cost obtained by the concessionaire from the bank. “Why the concessionaire has been given a free hand to get the banks’ loan as

per their wish?” said the committee headed by Member of Parliament of Trinamool Congress Kanwar Deep Singh.

NHAI in its statement on the report said, “We, at NHAI maintain high level of due diligence and follow all the processes which go through various government committees for clearances.”

Observing the NPA percentages of various banks in the road sector, the committee observed that for IDBI Bank the NPA percentage is as high as 52% of the total loan disbursed for the road sector and a large portion of this huge amount are NPAs, that too lent to a single concessionaire, Jaypee Infratech Ltd. The report pointed out that State Bank of India has lent Rs.19,502 crore, out of which Rs.1,986 crore has turned into NPA and the Parliament committee was worried about the higher percentage of loan becoming NPA. The committee said that the banks should do due diligence while disbursing loans to concessionaires.

During the consultation process of the report, the committee was informed that NPAs totalled Rs.2.6 trillion from defaulting infrastructure projects and that by the end of 2015-16, it is estimated to go up to more than Rs.4 trillion.

Nagaland among 21 states asked to curb air pollution Directed to form action plan to check fuel adulteration Helplines in all towns for air pollution within 30 days Sets a 90-day deadline to maintain ‘pothole free’ roads for free-flow of traffic NEW DELHI, AUG 13 (IANS): Asking 21 states to take action against air pollution within the given deadline, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has issued a total of 31 directions under six different sections.

The order asks the states to form an action plan to check fuel adulteration and public helplines in all towns for air pollution within 30 days and action for non-complying industries within 60 days.

It also sets a 90-day deadline to maintain “pothole free” roads for free-flow of traffic. The directions were issued in July to 21 polluting states under Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981. The states includes Nagaland, Meghalaya,

Uttarakhand and Jammu and Kashmir.

The cities of these states where the particulate matter increased over the last five years includes-- Jammu (J&K), Kohima (Nagaland), Rishikesh (Uttarakhand) .

“CPCB in the past made several requests to the state pollution control boards to prepare effective air quality management plans in respect of non-attainment cities and towns, and make efforts to get there plans implemented for improving the air quality,” the direction pointed out.

The directions among others includes -- Retrofitting of particulate filters in diesel vehicles, when BS-5 fuel is available and installing remote sensor based Pollution Under Control (PUC) system.

It urges to launch extensive drive against open burning of bio-mass, crop residue and garbage including the burning of Solid waste by the municipalities.

Asking for upgradation in the old polluting industries, the CPCB has asked the states to identify all the brick kilns, check their fuel, close the unauthorised kilns and conversion from natural draft to induction draft. To mitigate the gaps, the CPCB directed to establish an Air Quality Management Division at state pollution control board’s headquarters within 30 days and “interact with it”.

DIMAPUR, AUG 13 (NPN): To protest against the shifting of Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya (JNV) Kiphire to other place, the parents of JNV Kiphire students and the United Sangtam Students’ Conference (USSC) took out a silent procession at Kiphire on Saturday.

The parents submitted a memorandum to the commissioner, Navodaya Vidyalaya Samati, through deputy commissioner (DC) Kiphire.

In the memorandum, the parents expressed disheartenment that such decision was taken without any concern for students whose parents were from underprivileged section of the society and from one of the remotest places even by the state’s standard.

The parents appealed to the authority to take up the matter in all earnest and revoke the decision to shift the JNV Kiphire campus. JNV Kiphire was established in the year 2006.

Addressing the participants after the procession, USSC executive chairman Justin Khatomong T. Sangtam expressed dismay at the move of the JNV authority to shit the school to Phek. He said the authority has failed to uphold its motto “social justice to rural talents” and its aims and objectives “to foster national integration among students through a policy of migra(Cont’d on p-5) tion”.

Over 2 lakh students in govt schools Correspondent

KOHIMA, AUG 13 (NPN): Minister of School Education and SCERT, Yitachu on Saturday said government schools in Nagaland have enrolled of over two lakh students. Stressing on the need to provide adequate attention to the students, Yitachu expressed fear that if the students lack proper care, peace and cohesive existence would be a major issue.

Speaking at the 4th Graduation Day Ceremony of Modern Institute of Teacher Education (MITE) Kohima, Yitachu appealed to the teachers to be willing to serve even in the remotest places, reach out to the poorest and the weakest section of the society.

He lamented that the education system in the state was focused more on middle schools and above, without realizing the importance to build a strong foundation at the lower levels. Despite having huge

Yitachu (NP)

number of qualified teachers in government schools, Yitachu said most students prefer to go to private institutions. In order to build the confidence of students, he said teachers should have “true commitment towards their profession”.

Exhorting the B.Ed graduates, the minister said with the increasing number of educated people, only the best equipped would be able to survive.

He lauded them for pursuing B.Ed, saying this exemplifies their commitment and conviction to take up the noble and sacrificial profession.

Since the government made B.Ed compulsory for teachers, he informed that inservice government teachers have been made to undergo batch wise B.Ed training, while 14,000 more were yet to be covered. He said it was mandatory for in-service teachers to have B.Ed degree, for their annual increments and promotions.

On teachers’ recruitment, Yitachu said since 200-300 teachers retire from service every year, the department has put up a proposal to the state government to lift the ban on teachers’ recruitment. Once the Cabinet approves the proposal, teachers with B.Ed qualification would be recruited without any manipulation.

MITE managing director, Pelee Hekha highlighted that out of 96 candidates, 84 cleared the B.Ed exam 2015. Hekha said the college also got 88% pass percentage in Nagaland while Arenmenla Jamir secured 4th rank amongst the Top-10.

F&CS deptt: NGRC-I CU seeks info on allocation

D I M AU P R , AU G 1 3 (NPN): Nagaland Govt. Registered Class-1 Contractors’ Union (NGRC-1 CU) president Seyiekuolie and general secretary L. Pukhato Shohe have disclosed that the union has filed an RTI query to Public Information Officer (PIO), Food & Civil Supplies department seeking detailed information on allocation of kerosene and ‘solvent chemical’ (allegedly used for adulterating liquor and fuel) for the last 15 years.

While demanding the cancellation of bails granted to the fuel adulteration kingpins, NGRC-1 CU said that the kingpins were responsible for corrupting the Naga people’s wealth. “They can never be allowed to run any business in Nagaland especially fuel”, it said.

The union further alleged that the FC&S department and the minister concern was solely responsible for the

diversion of thousand litres of kerosene to black market for fuel adulteration purposes including ‘solvent chemical’, allegedly used for both liquor and fuel adulterations.

In this regard, NGRC-1 CU said it has demanded through an RTI query, the documents related to the allotment by the concerned ministry, government of India, as to how the state government obtained and its further allocation and for what purpose?

The union further demanded documents related to the allocation of ‘Kerosene’ as to how much was obtained from government of India and further allocation in the state and district-wise allocation.

It also demanded to know as to whether “there is any quota for the minister concerned or secretary or director in the allocation of kerosene? If not why all allocation are not distributed or allotted? Where does the remaining go?”

Pointing out that the fuel adulteration racket has adversely affected every citizen and the economy, the union cited the example of how a litre of fuel, which is suppose to cover 16 kms, was hardly covering 10 kms due to adulteration, at the same time damaging the engines of vehicles.

Contractors were the most affected, due to fuel adulteration, as it has caused huge loss, the union said.

Asserting that the union would not tolerate such serious racket anymore, NGRC-1 CU said “non-locals were the kingpin and several others were involved with them and the most interesting part was that when the racket was detected the local owner who were allowing these kingpin to run their business all of a sudden denied that they do not have any association with them any longer”.

DIMAPUR, AUG 13 (NPN): The suspension bridge at Seitheke Basa--the lifeline of more than six villages under Chumukedima sub-division-collapsed on Friday night after more than 30-40 ft of the bank

on which the main structure of the bridge stood was swept away by strong water current.

The concrete structure upon which the pillars were erected at Seitheke Basa side of the bridge was swept away by the river, however the metal ropes of the collapsed bridge

were retrieved by local volunteers and kept tethered to trees.

An average of more than two thousand commuters use the bridge on a daily basis but with the bridge collapsed, students, farmers, and office goers are the worst affected as they have to travel an additional

3-4 kms.

The bridge is the lifeline for: Seitheke Basa village, Seitheke ‘A’ village, Seitheke ‘C’ village, Spdzulhou village, 7th Mile village, and Model village.

Speaking to this reporter, the village council members of Seitheke Basa stated that district administration was informed and officials from Department of Irrigation and Flood Control reportedly inspected the bridge days before the bridge was collapsed.

The locals r ued that despite repeated appeals for construction of anti-erosion structures on the riverbank to the concerned department, no action was taken citing ‘paucity of funds.’

In this regard, the affected villages appealed to the concerned authority to repair the bridge at the earliest.

It may be mentioned that the bridge was constructed in 2003 by the 6th Bihar regiment under Military Civic Action scheme and has been repaired numerous times by the locals since then.

Dr Wati Aier at the event on “Nagas: Contemporary Nationalism” organized by The Morung Lecture, an initiative of The Morung for Indigenous Affairs & Just Peace and The Morung Express, at DABA Elim Hall, Duncan Basti.

Addressing the gathering, Aier recalled the views of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels view on Nationalism.

According to AR sources, troops of 9 AR acting on information regarding extortion/ tax collection by underground cadres, apprehended the duo in a Maruti Alto Car and 12 Bore Rifle (Country made), five Cartridge (Live), letter printed documents of NSCN (R) and extortion slips were recovered from their possession.

During initial interrogation, the cadres reportedly revealed they were active members of NSCN (R) and have been collecting tax on orders

and “safeguard” the inhabited territories and thus aspiration for nationhood began, of which the earliest Naga movement led by AZ Phizo’s imagination remained unmatched and Naga people must put that in record, he pointed out.

He asserted that in the contemporary world, 21st century, nationalism has not faded; many have been turning to ethnicity and searching for new anchors to ground their identities and political loyalties.

He said that nationalism has grouped people apart from each other, but at the same time it has helped the Nagas in preparing for unity that has ever been. However, nationalism could become a binding

cause to those who accept it critically, added Aier.

He asserted that in the contemporary world, Naga nationalism must sort nationalistic idealism vis-a’-vis national construction. Nagas in the contemporary nationalism needed national leaders and movements of deeper realism and greater stature.

Aier espoused that from a view point of democracy, genuine freedom and development within the Nagas should be preferable to stagnation and he added that this kind of justice that was ushered in was worthy. In this case, Aier was of the opinion that such a just society that provides opportunity for children, women and men to flourish and to hope

would build a better future.

He also pointed that “Nationalsim without identity is empty”, since all identities were unique and uniqueness of the Nagas and their history should never be at the expense of the other. To have identity is to have national identity, he asserted.

Aier also said that without harping on past attitudes, India must show that diplomacy without an ethical will and politics without global ethics would produce new injustices and thus new conflicts.

He summed up by calling upon the Naga thinkers, leaders and conscientious people not to withdraw from one’s own responsibility of working towards a just society.

Mother of two steps into Sharmila’s shoes; begins fast Correspondent

Arambam Robita Lemia that people’s long pending demand for repeal of AFPSA may end up in the midway.

“I am doing what Irom Chanu Sharmila did- demanding for repeal of AFSPA,” she said while appealing Irom Chanu to join her organization Crime Against Women if she is interested. She claimed that her organisation has been solving more cases of womenrelated crimes than any other department including police

CRA condemns GoI for ‘failing’ Irom Sharmila; demands repeal of AFSPA IMPHAL, AUG 13: Centre for Research and Advocacy (CRA), Manipur, while expressing concern over the government of India’s inaction towards repealing the draconian law AFSPA, has condemned the GoI “for its failure to respond to the democratic and non violent movement of Irom Sharmila to repeal the most controversial and draconian Armed Forces Special Powers Act, 1958.” In a press note, CRA stated the ‘inaction’ has “exposed the undemocratic and autocratic nature and rule of the Government, which is founded by the principles of non violence and Satyagraha,

as espoused and practiced by Mahatma Gandhi, the founder of Indian Nation.”

CRA also acknowledged and appreciateed the struggle and sacrifices of Irom Sharmila, for her non-violent and democratic struggles in exposing the undemocratic nature of AFSPA and its application in Manipur and across India’s North East.

“The unique and enduring struggle of Ms. Sharmila has further contributed in strengthening the call against AFSPA and in garnering support to reject the colonial law. Sharmila’s contribution will continue to inspire all people of Manipur and beyond to stand against

AFSPA and similar draconian laws,” CRA maintained.

In this regard, CRA urged upon the Government of India to repeal AFSPA, 1958 in accordance with the recommendations of various UN bodies and also to politically resolve the protracted armed conflict afflicting Manipur for several decades.

IMPHAL, AUG 13: After Irom Sharmila ended her fast on August 9, a woman social activist Saturday stepped into Irom’s shoes and commenced indefinite fast demanding repeal of Armed Forces (Special) Powers Act, 1958.

Arambam Robita Lemia, founder and secretary of an organization for Women Against Crime (WAC), who is also mother of two, commenced her fasting stir at her organisation’s office in Imphal Canchipur Saturday. Talking to media, Robita said that she was neither competing nor challenging Sharmila but to keep alive the demand for repeal of the AFPSA. She is also demanding putting in place a mechanism to protect the indigenous people of the state from ever dominating migrant populace in Manipur.

department.

“I may die but I would not step back without fulfilling the demand,” Robita who defied calls from various civic organizations to review her decision. Robita went ahead with her decision even as many organizations mostly women based called for review to her decision. Responding to the calls Robita said “I am deeply hurt by reactions from some sections of the society on her decision to quit fasting and to change her strategy.”

The organizations have already decided not to allow her to start her strike, citing that she has two young children a 10-year old son and a four-year-old daughter to look after. Several organizations including the AMUCO, UCM, AMSU, IPSA, Salai Apunba Nupi Lup and WAC had, in the meantime, resolved not to support her stir.

The organizations strongly opposed her decision on ground that she is a mother of two daughter, one 10 year and another four years.

Amit Shah slams Nehru-Gandhi family

Kohima traffic regulation on SAYS ‘COUNTRY HAS NOT WITNESSED ANY PROGRESS SINCE INDEPENDENCE’ August 15

BJP National President Amit Shah and BJP state president K P Maurya being garlanded by party supporters during a function of Tiranga Yatra at Shaheed Smarak Kakori in Lucknow on Saturday. (PTI) the outskirts of Lucknow.

“Without the development of Uttar Pradesh, the country cannot march ahead,” he said. The programme was held at Kakori town which had shot into prominence due to Kakori train robbery when some Indian revolutionaries looted British government’s treasury from a train on August 9, 1925. He termed as unfortunate the situation in the country and said villages are without

electricity, youths are jobless, agriculture fields are without irrigation facilities and poor patients are dying for want of medicines.

He said the country could not repay the debt of known and unknown martyrs who laid down their lives for freedom.

The BJP president assured the people of the area that he would pass on the message of converting Kakori memorial into a tourist place.

The Tiranga Yatras will be held till August 23 in which 75 ministers will visit 150 places associated with the freedom struggle and seven women ministers will visit the country’s borders to tie rakhis on soldiers deployed there. Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagged off celebrations on Tuesday from the home of freedom fighter Chandrashekhar Azad in Madhya Pradesh. With eyes firmly set on Uttar Pradesh, where assembly elections are due early next year, BJP has lined up a host of Union ministers to visit the state as part of its Tiranga Yatra.

“Tiranga Yatra will be carried out in two phases.

Union ministers and senior party functionaries will participate in the yatra,” BJP state general secretary Vijay Bahadur Pathak said.

Home Minister Rajnath Singh would participate in the yatra at Shahjahanpur and Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari will do so in Mughalsarai. Other ministers who would participate in the yatra include Uma Bharti (Jhansi), Ram Vilas Paswan (Akbarpur), J P Nadda (Lucknow), Chaudhary Birender Singh (Pratapgarh), Prakash Javadekar (Gorakhpur), Dharmendra Pradhan (Agra), Piyush Goyal (Mathura), Ram Kripal Yadav (Bijnor), Haribhai Parthibhai Chaudhary (Ghaziabad), Kiren Rijiju (Kanpur), Krishna Pal (Aligarh), Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore (Meerut), and Anupriya Patel (Faizabad), Pathak added.

PM Modi has Education policy to focus on Sharmishtha faces insulted ‘gau equity, accountability: Javadekar online harassment NEW DELHI, AUG 13 (PTI): rakshaks’: VHP In the Rajya Sabha, the Sharmishtha Mukherjee, Delhi NEW DELHI, AUG 13 (PTI): Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) today took strong exception to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remarks against cow vigilantes, saying by dubbing them as “anti-social” he had insulted them and demanding that the government talk to them. VHP international working president Pravin Togadia said that Modi’s directive to states to create dossiers of cow vigilantes amounts to ‘racial profiling’ of Hindus as they are the ones who give their lives for protecting the animal. Expressing “utmost dissatisfaction and agony” over Prime Minister’s remarks, he also questioned as to why the “head of the country” has given a clean chit to “cow butchers” and victimised cow protectors, who have been his avid supporters and helped him getting elected.

Rather than appreciating efforts of Hindus to save cows and initiating a sincere dialogue with “these simple, nonfancy gau-rakshaks”, Modi had termed 80 per cent of them as “anti-social”, he said. That was an “insult not only of Mother cow but also of Hindus and all those who gave their lives for protecting cows”, he told reporters. In a strong rebuke to cow vigilantes, some of whom flogged dalits in his home state Gujarat, Modi had last week said that he felt enraged at such “anti-social elements” who indulged in crimes by the night and masqueraded as cow protectors during the day.

Silent procession in Kiphire over...

(From p-1) Speaking on behalf of the parents, Selitong termed as “totally baseless and unrealistic” the purported statement made by the principal JNV Kiphire. Selitong also read out the memorandum.

In his short speech, Private Schools Association Kiphire president Sebastan also expressed dismay over the shifting of the lone central institute in the district and said that the private schools had been cooperating with the JNV authority since its inception.

Further, he said that the shifting of the institution has made JNV students’ career stagnant. In a press release, USSC general secretary Achumba Thonger said the conference has demand immediate cancellation of the shifting order of JNV Kiphire to Phek. It also appealed to the responsible authority to respond before the celebration of Independence Day. USSC said it would organize black arm band protest while observing Independence Day.

Prakash Javadekar HYDERABAD, AUG 13 (PTI): HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar said today the new education policy would focus on accountability and research and innovation in addition to quantity, quality and equity, and stated there would not be any tinkering with constitutional provisions.

In an interaction with students of Government High School at Musheerabad here, Javadekar said, “The new education policy will be raised on the foundations of quantity, quality, equity, accountability and research and innovation”.

“Some people are raising apprehensions before hand that there will be changes in the Constitution (with new education policy). There will be nothing of that sort,” Javadekar said.

Opposition had on Thursday slammed the draft policy as one lifted out of RSS documents.

Stressing that the new policy would focus on quality education for all, the minister said inputs and comments have been invited on its draft for which the deadline has been extended till September 15.

Meanwhile, during a chat session with students, Javadekar recalled that his family was so poor in his early days that they could not afford to buy newspapers, and he used to visit neighbourhood houses to read them.

When he was a 10-yearold, he used to tag along with his mother, a primary teacher, and teach illiterate men, while she took classes for the women folk.

Telangana Deputy Chief Minister Kadiyam Srihari requested the Centre to extend mid-day meal scheme – now implemented up to eighth standard -- up to tenth standard in government schools.

Srihari, who also holds the education portfolio, also made a pitch for extending Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalayas scheme at present providing education to girls up to eighth standard, particularly from weaker sections, up to 10th standard.

Congress spokesperson and the daughter of President Pranab Mukherjee, claimed today that a man harassed her by sending lewd messages and put up screenshots of the texts on her Facebook page.

“The person is completely unknown to me and he sent me dirty sexual messages last night. I first thought of ignoring him and blocking him but then (I) thought my silence will encourage him to find other victims,” she said, identifying the man as Partha Mandal.

The Congress leader said she would lodge a complaint with the cyber cell of Delhi Police.

In her Facebook post, she said, “I strongly feel such ppl shd be publicly exposed & humiliated. I’m posting screenshots of his profile & messages he sent me. I’m also tagging him. Pls share this post & tag this rat as a msg that these pervert acts will not be taken lightly (sic).”

“Police might have thousands of such cases with them.

I will fight as an ordinary woman and do not require any preferential treatment as a daughter of the President of India. Police must work all such cases with equal diligence,” she said.

DIMAPUR, AUG 13 (NPN): In view of the 70th Independence Day Celebration at Secretariat Plaza, Kohima on August 15, 2016, the Kohima police have informed that it would enforce traffic regulations as part of the security arrangement.

In a press release, Senior Superintendent of Police, Kohima, stated that only vehicles with appropriate car passes would be allowed entry to the Secretariat Plaza.

It has been informed that no vehicle would be allowed to be parked by the roadside from 6am onwards on that day at the following routes: from BSNL Telephone Exchange till Classic Island; From Raj Bhavan till M.S Classic Island and From Classic Island till Assembly Secretariat via Razhü Point.

Heavy vehicles would not be allowed to ply from High School junction to Assembly Secretariat via Sanuoru subway during the Independence Day Programme, except government departmental buses.

Further, heavy vehicles would not be allowed to ply in Kohima town till the programme was over. Heavy vehicles would also not be allowed to be parked along the “D” Block road.

Police have informed that all loading and unloading of goods in Kohima town should be completed by 6am. While seeking cooperation from the public, the police have warned that defaulting vehicles would be towed away and the charges would be borne by the vehicle owners.

Police scuttles separatist attempts to take out march

Police detain senior separatist leader of Moderate Faction of Hurriyat Conference, Mirwaiz Molvi Umar Farooq, after he jumps from his gate to defy the curfew, in Srinagar on SRINAGAR, AUG 13 (PTI): Police today thwarted attempts by separatist leaders Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Syed Ali Shah Geelani, who are under house arrest, to take out processions from their residences to Lal Chowk.

In the first instance, Mirwaiz, the chairman of moderate Hurriyat Conference, came out from his Nigeen residence located on the outskirts of Srinagar this afternoon.

He was immediately detained by the police and taken to Nigeen police station, officials said.

Separately, Geelani, who heads hardline faction of Hurriyat Conference, also tried to take out a march from his Hyderpora residence on Srinagar-Airport road.

However, the police

stopped the octogenarian leader, following which he along with his supporters staged a sit-in on the link road, officials said.

The sit-in lasted for over half-an-hour and ended peacefully, the officials said.

The two Hurriyat factions as also JKLF led by Yasin Malik had given a call for ‘Lal Chowk March’ today and tomorrow to press for ‘right of self-determination’ in accordance with the UN resolutions.

While Mirwaiz and Geelani have been under house arrest, Malik is lodged in central jail here since his arrest on July 9 following widespread clashes in the aftermath of the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani.

Prior to his arrest, Mir-

waiz accused the central government of trying to hoodwink the people of the country and international community “by keeping a lid on the ground realities” in the valley.

“They are claiming that some people are misguided.

If that is the case, there is a great opportunity for them to conduct a referendum and see what the people of Kashmir want,” he told reporters.

He said “the reality is that the people of Kashmir neither demand employment or contracts nor the subsidy.

The only demand of the people is freedom and restoration of their rights. So the Indian government should read the writing on the wall.”

Apparently referring to India’s stand that the ongoing unrest in the valley is sponsored

by Pakistan, Mirwaiz said, “repeatedly attempts are being made that the ongoing movement in Kashmir is sponsored and somebody is pushing it from behind.

“This is the movement of the people of Kashmir. It is not today’s movement or the movement started in 1947.

The people of Kashmir are rendering sacrifices since 1931 for their rights.

“Our programme and our stand is crystal clear - the right of self-determination is the basis of our struggle,” he said.

He said no election, no economic package and “so-called” political initiative would work in Kashmir till the issue is resolved in accordance with the UN resolutions.

F&CS deptt: NGRC-I CU seeks info on allocation (From p-1) The union also lamented that certain local organisation were non-cooperative during the peaceful picketing of fuel outlets, though normal businesses were not disrupted.

The union has also questioned the authority concern as why ‘check and test’ of fuel outlets are conducted only on a particular day, when it was to be carried out on a regular basis.

On availability of fuel in

the state, NGRC-1 CU said it was much more than what is being allocated by government of India. This was so due to excessive adulteration, it added.

It fur ther noted that SKO to various districts, both AOD and MD, were allocated to same agencies for several years namely: Dimapur– AAA, RBCA, PCTC, NSC & D. Angami I Mdzp; Peren– B. Zeliang; Kohima– RBCE & K. Agency; Wokha– Lim Agency & Yanthan Agency;

Mokokchung – P.I. Agency, RBCA & Meren Agency CTN; Kiphire– Kiphire Oil Agency; Tuesang– RBCA; Mon– NAFC Agency; Zunheboto– RBCA; Phek– ZTPA, KPA Kikruma & KTA Pfutsero.

However, the union alleged that the “entire kerosene allocation were run and utilised by non-locals only”.

To put a stop to such menace, NGRC-1 CU has appealed to all sections of society to contribute and join hands.

The union reiterated it’s

It said that the success in direct transfer of the LPG subsidy to the consumers through PAHAL scheme, gives an indication of the potential for use of Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).

This would ensure genuine beneficiaries get the benefit of subsidy while preventing illicit diversion, it added.

KAKORI (UP), AUG 13 (PTI): Lashing out at Congress, BJP President Amit Shah today charged that the country has not witnessed any progress since Independence as “one family” held the reins for 60 years and asserted that BJP alone could usher in development. With an eye on the Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls due next year, Shah said if the country is to progress, the development of the state is essential. “It has been 70 years since we gained Independence.

But there has been no development in the country as one family was in power for 60 years,” he said.

Shah slammed the erstwhile Congress governments for “absence of development” in the country. “I feel sad to say that it has been 70 years since we have won freedom and for 60 years, Congress was in saddle and the result is for everyone to see,” he said.

Shah was speaking at a ‘Tiranga Yatra’ as part of ‘Yaad Karo Qurbani’ programme to commemorate the sacrifices of freedom fighters ahead of Independence Day. Asserting that BJP alone can usher in development in the country, he said if SP or BSP came to power in Uttar Pradesh, they will work for the development of only one community. “If SP or BSP come to power they will work for the development of only one community. BJP alone can ensure all round development in the state. BJP believes in ‘sab ka saath, sab ka vikas’,” Shah said at the event held on

ORDER

HOME-SRC/7396/2015: As complaint petition received dated, 15 th June 2016 from "Nagaland State Rifle Association" seeking for cancellation of "Nagaland Rifle Association" (herein after reffered to as 'NSRA' for "Nagaland State Rifle Association" and 'NRA' for "Nagaland Rifle Association" for the sake of Brevity). The grounds of seeking for cancellation of the NRA as per the application of the NSRA is despite the existence of NSRA, another association by the name and style of NRA was registered bearing Regd. No. HOME/SRC-6908 dt. 14-07-2015 which has a similar name, aims and objects. Moreover, the NRA has furnished wrong information while seeking registration of the same and also has fraudulently inducted the DGP Nagaland, Kohima as Ex-Officio member in its Constitution without the conscent of the concerned DGP. It has also been stated that Shri. Merang Jamir who is a life time President of NRA is also a member of NSRA and "Kohima Rifle Club" which is affiliated association of NSRA and thus registration has been wrongfully obtained and granted in violation of the provision of the Act. After enquiry, verifying the facts and perusal from the records, a show cause notice was issued to the President, NRA vide letter No. HOME-SRC/7396/2015 dt. 05-07-2015.

Whereas, per records, it has been found that the NSRA was registered way back on 21-08-2013 bearing regd. No. HOME/SRC-6588 and whereas the NRA was subsequently registered on 14-07-2015 bearing regd. No. 6908. It has been ascertained that the name, aims and objects of NRA is identical with that of NSRA. Thus, despite of the existence of NSRA, the simultanues regisration of NRA with identical name and with similar aims and objects has caused prejudice to the NSRA. That on admission of the President of NRA, it is established that the President of NRA is a member of NSRA and also a member of Kohima Rifle Club which is affiliated to NSRA and such, was aware of the existence of the NSRA, its aims and objectives. However, during the process of registration, the President of NRA has deliberately withheld the facts in order to obtain the registration of NRA. Upon enquiry, it has also been established that the NRA has inducted the DGP, Nagaland, Kohima as Ex-Officio member in its constitution without the conscent of the concerned DGP, Nagaland. Thus, the NRA while seeking registration has disclosed wrong information.

It is of the opinion that the existence of two similar societies with similar aims and objects is not permissible as per the the Societies Registration Act. Moreover, in the event of allowing both the Societies to continue to function with similar aims and objectives and with similar name, the conflict to interest and inconveniences in future is inevitable and ultimately it shall be detrimental to the aims and objectives of the NSRA which has been registered prior to the NRA. From the facts and circumstances stated above, it has been established that the registration of NRA had wrongly obtained and the certificate of registration was granted in violation to the provision of section 3A of the Act. As such, in exercise to Section 23(1) of the Societies Registration (Nagaland second Amendment) Act, 1984, the registration of "NAGALAND RIFLE ASSOCIATION" bearing registration No. HOME/SRC-6908 dt. 14-07-2015 is hereby cancelled.

Fraud in education

D

espite several reminders by the state government and in particular the Department of Higher Education (DoHE), there are reports alleging that many persons acquire fake degrees from dubious institutes while a majority obtain diploma or graduate or PG degrees from non-recognized universities. In other words, a non-recognized university means it is described as a “fake university” since such university or college(s) which is/are not approved by the Government and UGC. Lot of Innocent candidates or students get trolled by these fake universities and pay to obtain fake degrees from fake institutions where they are admitted. UP leads with nine (9) fake universities, followed by Delhi with six (6), while 7 other states have a university each not approved by the UGC. In Delhi, where several thousand Naga students from Nagaland the following universities are still operating: Commercial University Ltd., Daryaganj, Delhi; United Nations University, Delhi; Vocational University, Delhi; Indian Institute of Science and Engineering, New Delhi and ADRCentric Juridical University, Rajendra Place, New Delhi. There have been numerous reports in the past where several people even in Nagaland reportedly possessing PhD certificates that were awarded in similar manner. In fact, the department of higher and technical education had once issued a list of fake universities issuing various types of degrees. The amazing thing is that despite such noting, still quite a number appear to be holding fake degrees from fake universities or those that manage to obtain certificates through dubious means. These days, with so many floating institutions, the state government has to take a very serious view about the proliferation of doctorates in philosophy and investigate if there are some who may have slipped in unnoticed to obtain employment under the government. Private institutions in Nagaland particular need to tighten up on this aspect by co-ordinating efforts with the state government against unscrupulous persons or academicians who award certificates to candidates for the sake of money. If it is the issue of fake degrees or doctorate certificates in the secular field, the scenario in Nagaland becomes more discomforting with reports about persons who propel themselves up the ladder in the Theological world with doctorate certificates and to top it all, ordination as reverends which are done by unknown institutions. There are reports of institutions that award doctorates through correspondence courses while ordination as reverends are made without proper scrutiny as is normally undertaken but solely on the basis of whatever consideration by those unknown institutions some of which are located at places never heard of before.

It is perhaps, easier to obtain doctorate degree or be ordained in the Theological world since fewer questions are asked provided a person is able to act that part. Perhaps, even in the case with Theological degrees or titles, there is also a need for the mainline established church organizations to thoroughly scrutinize these awards so that there is no chaos in future caused by charlatans. Like bogus appointment orders as in some government departments, there are also some fraudsters who provide fake (forged documents) and which are probably used to get jobs and never discovered as fakes. There are some organizations with websites that claim they can verify whether a degree is fake (from fake institutes, non-recognized universities etc). If fake degrees and non-recognized universities and institutes are not closed down and those involved booked then it would amount to saying there are no fakes or nothing is fake in education.

DailyDevotion “Do Not Quench the Spirit” Do not quench the Spirit. —1 Thessalonians 5:19 The voice of the Spirit of God is as gentle as a summer breeze— so gentle that unless you are living in complete fellowship and oneness with God, you will never hear it. The sense of warning and restraint that the Spirit gives comes to us in the most amazingly gentle ways. And if you are not sensitive enough to detect His voice, you will quench it, and your spiritual life will be impaired. This sense of restraint will always come as a “still small voice” (1 Kings 19:12), so faint that no one except a saint of God will notice it.

Beware if in sharing your personal testimony you continually have to look back, saying, “Once, a number of years ago, I was saved.” If you have put your “hand to the plow” and are walking in the light, there is no “looking back”— the past is instilled into the present wonder of fellowship and oneness with God (Luke 9:62 ; also see 1 John 1:6-7).

If you get out of the light, you become a sentimental Christian, and live only on your memories, and your testimony will have a hard metallic ring to it. Beware of trying to cover up your present refusal to “walk in the light” by recalling your past experiences when you did “walk in the light” (1 John 1:7). When-ever the Spirit gives you that sense of restraint, call a halt and make things right, or else you will go on quenching and grieving Him without even knowing it.

Suppose God brings you to a crisis and you almost endure it, but not completely. He will engineer the crisis again, but this time some of the intensity will be lost. You will have less discernment and more humiliation at having disobeyed. If you continue to grieve His Spirit, there will come a time when that crisis cannot be repeated, because you have totally quenched Him. But if you will go on through the crisis, your life will become a hymn of praise to God. Never become attached to anything that continues to hurt God. For you to be free of it, God must be allowed to hurt whatever it may be.

Quotes It is hard that a man’s exterior should tally so little sometimes with his soul.

Post-mortem

Speeches on Naga independence day

My dear Nagas, On this day the 14th of August 2016, observing the historic day of Naga independence day, the NPGN-NNC-N/A, hoisting the flag of Rainbow designed by Almighty God the symbol of embodiment of God, reiterates and reaffirmed to uphold the Yehzabo of Nagaland and to safeguard the legacy of our forefathers declaring Nagaland as a free nation.

On this historic day we solemnly acknowledge that sovereignty over the land and the people belong to Almighty God alone who sustains our lives throughout the year of trial and (1) Reaffirmed the Nagas plebiscite of 1951 and (2) to abide by the great proclamation of “Nagaland for Christ” as resolved and proclaimed in Tatar Hoho which was held on 2nd February to 28th February 1958 at the vicinity of Chokimi village now under Zunheboto district. (3) to stand and fight for Nagas self determination through democratic rights and nonviolence. The Nagas are also inspired by the ideology and philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi, the father of the nation to fight for one’s right.

As Nagaland for Christ is our slogan I implore all believers to join hands together and fight for our deliverance as God alone can make unmake or reshape any nation. I call upon Godly people to raise their voice as we have seen that God never allows ungodly people to lead their voice as we have seen that God never allows ungodly people to lead His children or a nation.

It is to be noted that my government appreciate the sensational 3rd August 2015 framework agreement and assures that no attempt will be make to antagonise the process of hard earned political solution of the Naga nation. In this context I would like to reproduce some worth mentioning resolutions passed during the lifetime of late Asu Isak Chishi Swu and Mr. Muivah honourable ato kilonser. The documentation of resolutions which is considered as national political document were as follows; (1) The unalterable historical facts stand that Nagaland had never been a part of India or any other country and a compromise of rights would Naga Independence day message by NNC/PRN The unconquered nation and its brave people voices with one heart to the nations of the world, for freedom, self-determination and identity, The Nagas still awaits Nations for recognition to our history, political, the call of Naga nationalism was born from the hearts of volunteered (Naga Club) who courageously faced challenges, their initiatives work and the concept of Naga nationalism has made inalienable rights to sovereignty and independence. The declaration of Naga Independence on 14th August’1947 based on the Naga historical and political rights, Naga people’s rights has condemned with bullets, villages and granaries were burned down, womenfolk were rape, innocent were gun down, and the untold pain and suffering in the concentration camp, there were no food and water, whole day people were force to work with empty stomach, Innocent Naga public became victims, their atrocities minds and hearts brought total destruction in our land, yet we still forgive them, Nagas will always be Nagas, whatever, whoever or wherever you are, the principles of Nagas should always be maintain and step forward for better world, we have our sovereign rights to be free nation, but our rights has been concealed by Indian govt with help of naga traitor, but the cried of people’s and tears has reached to it’s destination, where blessings from above would be inherit by the true Nagas.

Ministry of Information & Publicity, NNC/PRN

do wrong to Nagaland. Therefore the national assembly hereby reaffirmed that the sovereignty of Nagaland is not negotiable. (2) Nagaland is dedicated to the Lord Jesus Chriost whereas the evil forces are also active in human affairs. The objective of Nagaland for Christ would be attained when the political freedom of the country is securely safeguarded. In pursuance of the truth the sovereignty of Nagaland shall be defended at all costs, (3) Any, attempt to betray the national policy or attempt to deviate from the national right and stand or any compromise with the opposing forces in the issue of national or organizations shall be doomed as treason.

On condemnation of Shillong Accord: (1) The sovereignty existence or Nagaland and sovereign rights of the Naga people over their land are historically unquestionable facts and that the question of negotiation on India favour does not arise whatsoever.

Therefore whatever may be the circumstance the people of Nagaland by no means be a part to any settlement that may entail the loss of the right of sovereign existence. (2) Therefore any talk or any negotiations tending to be within Indian union are unequivocally the works of hidden traitors and the traitors in no way represent the people. (3) No one in whatever name or capacity has the power or authority to settle the Indo-Naga issue within the Indian union. (4) Nagas refused to be buried alive together with the Shillong Accord.

To us, the sovereignty existence of our country, the salvation or our people in Christ is eternal and unquestionable. Therefore, here I would like to mention that the first point of Shillong Accord was to accept, without condition, the constitution of India. As a patriot and freedom fighter, I reluctantly ask what the first point of 3rd Aug.2015 framework agreement is. Is it going to be like a beam in your eye and a tiny speck in the eyes of Shillong Accord? It is superfluous on my part to express my deep concern about the F.A as it conceal the fate and future of the Nagas and the Nagas have every right to know about their future.

The question of shared sovereignty: In the words of Y.M. Up-

Dear Countrymen, On this day, the 14th of August 2016, the Federal Government of Nagaland greets all Naga citizens on this historic occasion of the70th Naga Independence Day. We are grateful to our Almighty God for His continued protection, guiding hand and sustenance. The same spirit of Nationalism that guided our pioneers and forebears will continue to lead us to our destined place in the sun.

The Federal Government of Nagaland has always stood firm and resolute on the “historical and political rights of the Nagas.” The foundation upon which we stand is reinforced by every move we make and every step we take. We will continue to walk the same path. As the Nation pays our homage to all those patriots who are no more with us today, we hold onto the same belief with those who willingly sacrificed their lives in the course of their National duty believing that one day Nagas without any territorial limit will be free from the powers that sought to throttle the voice of freedom and liberty. Today we hear the voices of those opposed to us and try to manipulate our destiny and many people in the name of modernity and advancement consider us as fools and dreamers in pursuit of an unrealistic and impossible dream. However, we are ready to be considered as fools for what we believe to be right and be called by names for Naga historical and political rights to be preserved and guarded. The language of modernity has diluted the Naga language of SOVEREIGNTY. For us Sovereignty is an absolute term, Sovereignty cannot be partial and that though power can be shared Sovereignty cannot be shared.

We fight for a sovereignty that will resonate within us, a nation having complete freedom to shape and decide our own destiny and policy, a freedom

adhyay when the talk ended with a positive note between the delegation of DRGN of the GoI, Mrs. Indira Gandhi, then the prime minister of India was immensely happy and assured the delegation that India as a nation would share its sovereignty with the Nagas and that the Nagas need not fear of being deprived of anything. This shared sovereignty is what Nagas are experiencing now.

Nagas will not accept shared sovereignty as it would be subversion of Indian constitution which clearly states that sovereignty is indivisible.

Truthfully the Nagas do not believe that India would amend its formidable constitution to restrict her sovereignty for Indo-Naga settlement.

Lastly I call upon the responsible Nagas to denounce the words inclusive or exclusive. These words are highly discriminatory and disheartening. Let us see the views of Naga Hoho which defines thus- “Nagas are one and there is no question of who are Nagas and who are not Nagas.” It amply implies that no Naga should be excluded or included. All Nagas are there fighting together for common cause. Let there be no category of big or small sacrifices as all life are equally precious. A good day will come only when we change the mindset of classification. Change will come only when all the Nagas are united and trusting in God should be our ultimate strength. I am tempted to write that God may have has his plan for delaying the promulgation of framework agreement. Let us make use of God given time to set right all the things that are wrong. Imagine the severity of outcome of our blunder for the motherland if what is wrong and objectionable cannot be corrected before it is too late. Do it now. Don’t wait for tomorrow for tomorrow may not be ours. Let us welcome proper and sound criticism for our future and the Naga nation. Live or perish Nagas will not live under bondage of any country. Nagas self determination is our birthright and the final settlement will be freedom. They can take our lives but not our freedom. May God Bless Nagaland. Kuknalim.

Speech of Hozheto Z. Chophi, ato kilonser NPGN-NNC-N/A

no longer under any powers trying to dominate and take advantage of situations to suit their vested interests. The NNC/FGN reiterates that anything short of political sovereignty would be a treachery to our people and the Naga Cause and a betrayal to the blood of the thousands of lives that have been sacrificed for the Naga Nation.

In the last 7 (seven) decades, our lands without our knowledge or consent have been divided and fragmented and our National Movement demean to that of a secessionist movement and an insurgency. On top of all these, Draconian laws which have no place in other parts of any modern civilized society like Disturbed Area Act under the Armed Forces Special Powers Act of 1958 is continued to be imposed in the Naga inhabited areas to suppress and throttle the cry for freedom and under the protection of this Act the Indian army continues to perpetrate inhuman and barbaric atrocities on our people. The continued imposition of such obsolete laws also depicts the harsh reality of how the so called largest democracy in the world is oppressing a small neighboring nation with all its might and forcefully occupying it, much against the will and wishes of the people and of how Peace is prevailing in our land. The desire of the Nagas to live in peaceful coexistence with our neighbors should not be construed as a sign of weakness and we cannot afford to allow the powers that be to buy time to destroy the very fabrics of our innate rights.

We have chosen to follow the path of our great and visionary leaders, pioneers and predecessors and we have never lost sight of what they have laid for us. Had it not been for the declaration of our independence on this very day in 1947, where would we be today? And had it not been for the Naga Plebiscite of 1951 and had we not

Dear Naga people, I praise God on this precious occasion of our National Day of Naga independence. Since the declaration by the Naga National Council in 1947, acknowledged by the United Nations, 14th August has stood as a political landmark for our people.The Nagas must stand firm on our nationhood, which is our right. The world must recognize our nationhood and in particular Burma (Myanmar) and the world’s largest democracy (India), who have occupied Nagaland illegitimately and forcefully, must leave our land.

The Government of India and Myanmar have divided our land and are entirely responsible for our plight and the long political turmoil in the region. They should be held and charged by the International Court of Justice at Hague (The Netherlands).

The NNC appeals to the world and the neighboring countries to come forward to support, defend and liberate Nagaland for justice, peace and development in the region for the interest of all concerned.

The Naga people, especially the intellectuals and the people who are well versed in Naga politics should take our problem to the international arena, using a non-violent and democratic approach. Unless strong measures are taken by our people, whether it is the national workers or NGOs, there will be no other way at this stage to reach our goal, as the Government of India will never settle the political plight of the Nagas. India has been merciless and aggressive in their dealings with us for the last six decades. While publicly being in so-called “political talks” they have continued to be deeply deceptive and insensitive behind the scenes and this is their strategy to dominate and occupy our land.

Neighboring countries like Pakistan and China are now openly speaking out on the issue of political unrest in Jammu & Kashmir. They have expressed their concern and are speaking out for the Kashmiri people.

This is a good political sign for the Nagas as well.

With regard to Naga political problem, the British Government (UK) must speak out for the Naga people as their Government was and

is fully responsible for the political plight of the Naga nationhood.

Today as we celebrate and observe our National Day, we must remember and salute our national workers who sacrificed their all for the cause of freedom. The NNC salutes all the heroes who gave up their lives for our nation. May God Almighty bless their families that they may prosper and shine for the Naga nationhood.

The Naga people also have to say that the Government of India and its army have put the lives and security of the North-East people in jeopardy by placing missiles like Brahmos and even nuclear weapons in the North-East region in preparation for war against the People’s Republic of China. War with China will devastate and annihilate the entire North-East region, which is rich in raw materials and natural forest, as well as being of outstanding natural beauty. This is something that we, the people who stand for non-violence, are strongly against and we condemn the action by the Indian Government, which is in complete violation of International Human Rights and the rights of the people in the region. India - the largest democracy-is going to create war in the region.

The NNC also condemn those Naga groups who are compromising Naga political rights in their talks and cease-fires with Government of India. The prolonged talks and cease fires have really weakened Naga inalienable rights. The protagonists are now politically trapped and have lost their freedom of movement. This is a disastrous state of affairs.

Therefore the Naga people should come forward to support and stand for the right political body, the one that can take our cause to the international arena for recognition.

The Naga people have a covenant with our living God, therefore, we must stick to our faith for the salvation of our people and land.

May our living God bless the Day and save the Naga people for His glory. Kuknalim.

Speech of Z. Royim Yimchungrii, acting president of Naga National Council

put our thumb impressions to say “we are Nagas and not Indians” and we will forever be free without the interference of any external nation, what would we be today? The historic declaration and the momentous action exhibit our historical and political rights before the whole world. As such, the NNC/FGN holds these twin planks as the foundation pillars of our political movement and our unassailable right.

The NNC/FGN stands to preserve the long cherished dream of the Nagas. For this very reason the NNC/ FGN has embarked on ‘A Journey of Common Hope’ initiated by the Forum for Naga Reconciliation with the other Naga Political Groups. Our stand is clear. We have committed ourselves to the reconciliation among the Naga Political Groups to hammer out our differences so that we can harbor on our common goal, namely, the Naga historical and political rights and making it stand at the forefront of our political movement. We will sail with full trust, honor our commitment and the trust that our people has reposed in us.

We have the will power that is mightier than the military weapons or the economic power with which the Nagas have often been oppressed and lured with. Our will power is our strength as it has always been and will continue to be. Our unity and our resolute decision to carry on as one people is the legacy that we can leave to the future generations.

The NNC/FGN notes with regret the erosion of our good traditional values and culture which are being supplanted by alien cultures. It isa matter of concern that our good traditional values of hard work, honesty, simplicity and social moral values which we cherish are fast disappearing from our society and we have adopted many alien cultures.

Our existence, our religious practices and even our food habits appear to be in danger of being overridden by alien ethos, cultures, food habits and religious belief and practices if the present indications are anything to go by. Our tribal culture of living in harmony with nature is gradually being overtaken by consumerism which is evident in the massive destruction of our green forests. The age old practice of exploiting the natural resources for our needs to the present exploitation of these resources for commercial purposes is unfortunate. We have to be ever watchful and not complacent so that we are not overwhelmed and totally submerged by the tidal waves around us. We must stay strong and focused.

Today, we celebrate with pride and honor those who have made thesupreme sacrifice for the National Cause for it is because of them wecan stand up with pride today in the midst of all the trials anddifficulties. To all who have stood steadfast, I congratulate you.

Myspecial salute goes to the recipients of the awards and commendations for the dedication and sacrifice you have made.

As we celebrate this historic day, I wish to acknowledge and put on record my appreciation and gratitude to all our people who are praying for and observing this day throughout the world. We ought not to take pride nor rest on our laurels for the strenuous journey we have undertaken thus far because much is still required of us. Let us rededicate ourselves today to what we all hold dear, right and true till we reach our destination and attain our rightful place among the Nations of the world. God bless you and kuknalim.

Speech of Brig.(retd) S. Singnya, Kedahge, FGN

Towards a new dawn in Nagaland (From previous issue) A Lesson to be learnt: There is an important lesson to be learnt from all the efforts for peace briefly outlined above- that no attempt to find a solution to the long-standing Naga problem can be successful unless all sections of the people in the State were taken on board. This sobering experience should also be brought to bear on the current phase of dialogue with the NSCN (IM). This is not to doubt the sincerity of the Government of India to hammer out a lasting solution to the Naga problem but to impress on the need for transparency and inclusion. The people of Nagaland realise that the Central Government headed by a visionary Prime Minister and commanding a massive popular mandate is in a unique position to offer to them an honourable settlement acceptable to all. They have a vital stake in any final settlement and should, therefore, be part of the dialogue through a representative mechanism reflecting various

shades of opinion. It is similarly incumbent on the NSCN (IM) to take the people of the State into confidence on the contours of a final settlement being negotiated by them with the Government of India.

Suggestions to be considered: While the shape of a final settlement will depend on the process of dialogue currently on and the extent to which it embraces various shades of opinion, it may be necessary to make a few worthwhile suggestions to be considered at this stage. i) Point 7(4) of the 16-Point Agreement provided inter alia that no Acts of Parliament shall apply to the State of Nagaland in relation to the ownership and transfer of land and its resources unless the same has been ratified by the Legislative Assembly of the State. This provision was further reinforced by Article 371 A of the Constitution. In later years, there have been differing interpretations of the exact scope of the phrase

“land and its resources”-whether minerals and natural gas would come within its ambit. The Government of Nagaland and its legal counsels have given an affirmative opinion on the subject while the Central Government has taken a contrary view. It is recommended that the latter adopt an accommodative position in the matter since it has an emotional connect with the people of Nagaland. Besides, absolute ownership over land and its resources and the concomitant right to exploit minerals and gas will have a positive bearing on the financial position of the State which is resource-starved. A clear endorsement of the State’s position in this matter should accordingly be part of the final accord. ii) The other important part of the final settlement should be declaration of a general amnesty for the men in the underground and an honourable rehabilitation package for them. Their services may be best utilised by recruiting them in special battalions of any of the paramilitary forces.

iii) In view of the increase in population and the need for greater representation of the Nagas in Parliament, the State should have two members each in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. iv) A Pan Naga League and under it a Tribal Research and Cultural Centre should be set up with full Central assistance and located in Dimapur in Nagaland.

Political Settlement with a robust Economic Package: At the time of signing of the 16-Point Agreement in 1960, it was clearly recognised that Nagaland as a State would not be economically self-reliant. Clause 11 of the Agreement thus stipulated thatTo supplement the revenues of the State of Nagaland there will be a need for the Government of India to pay out of the Consolidated Fund of India as Grants-in-aid as follows: 1) Lump-sums as may be necessary each year for the development programme of Nagaland.

(To be concluded) S.C.Jamir.

Reader’s Post Negligence of Rajbari Sir,

A team of members from Dimasa Youth Forum, popularly known as Dimasa Youth Festival celebration committee, visited Dimapur ruins (Rajbari) of Dimasa kingdom on July 31, 2016.

During the visit, the team also interacted with various Dimasa organizations of Dimapur.

They shared their views on various issues, of which, the most pathetic was the historical site of the Somalis ruins. The team witnessed the negligence of the authority concerned. The historical gate, which is also the main entry to site, has remained closed due to dumping of garbage.

Therefore, I, on behalf of the organization would like to make an appeal to the authority concerned, to protect and safeguard this archaeological site, which is also an integral part of the nation’s property.

Nandita Gorlosa, President Dimasa Youth Forum

Mumbai, Aug 13 (PTI): A panel formed by the government to look into the issue of bringing all pension products under one regulator is likely to submit its report shortly, a top official of pension watchdog PFRDA said today.

At present, pension products are being regulated by multiple financial regulators like PFRDA, Sebi, Irdai and EPFO. However, Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has urged the government to bring all such products under it.

“A proposal has been already put to the government to have a single regulator for all kinds of pension products in the country. “The government has set up a committee to discuss the issue. The committee is likely to give its recommendation shortly,” PFRDA Chairman Hemant Contractor told reporters on the sidelines of a CII event here.

Apart from PFRDA, the panel has members from other regulators like Sebi, Irdai and EPFO. PFRDA has also asked the Centre to allow private sector fund managers to manage the pension funds for government employees and it is hopeful of getting the government’s nod in a month’s time.

At present, only the three state-owned fund managers are managing such funds, he said.

Kuala Lumpur, Aug 13 (PTI): In a four-state swoop, Malaysian police have detained nine suspected Islamic State (IS) militants, including two allegedly involved in a shooting at a nightclub here recently.

The Counter Terrorism Division arrested the suspects in Kuala Lumpur, Johor, Sabah and Kelantan between July 20 and August 9.

Inspector-General of Police Khalid Abu Bakar said in a press release that three of the suspects arrested - aged between 17 and 56 - were foreigners.

He said the three were using Malaysia as a transit point while they obtained forged travel documents to launch an attack on a country in the Middle East.

Khalid said the 17-yearold suspect detained in Sabah had received orders from an IS militant in Syria to launch a lone wolf attack by killing non-Muslims in Sandakan.

Khalid identified the two night club bombing suspects as Jasanizam Rosni and Md Saifuddin Muj who werenabbed in a hilly area in Kuala Krai, in Kelantan state on Tuesday.

“They were also waiting for further orders to launch an attack on an entertainment outlet in Johor Baru,” said Khalid.

He added that a M67 grenade was seized, saying that the two had planned to use it in the attack.

Washington, Aug 13 (Agencies): Donald Trump was officially named the Republican presidential nominee during July’s Republican National Convention--but some party leaders are still not on board with his candidacy.

During the week long gathering in Cleveland, while names the likes of Chris Christie and Mitch McConnell tossed their political weight behind the billionaire businessman, a number of prominent GOPers not only skipped the convention but have refused to endorse the party’s ticket.

Perhaps the most highprofile political snub of the 2016 election cycle came at the hands of Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who was promptly booed after failing to endorse Trump during his prime-time address at the RNC. Following the controver-

sial speech, Cruz said he is “not in the habit of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my father.”

“Wow, Ted Cr uz got booed off the stage, didn’t honor the pledge!” Trump tweeted following Cruz’s speech. “I saw his speech two hours early but let him speak anyway. No big deal!”

While Cruz made an appearance at the RNC, a few of Trump’s defeated primary rivals skipped the big Cleveland event, including the governor of The Buckeye State John Kasich.

When asked if he would support the Republican nominee, Kasich said, “Why would I feel compelled to support someone whose positions I kind of fundamentally disagree with?”

Taliban frees crew of crashed Pak helicopter

Hacker release personal data of 200 Democratic leaders

I s l a m a ba d, Au g 1 3 (IANS): The Afghan Taliban has freed the crew of a Pakistani helicopter that crash-landed in Afghanistan’s Logar province on August 4, Pakistani intelligence officials have said.

Six Pakistanis and a Russian pilot, who were captured by militants in a Taliban-controlled district, were handed over to authorities in Pakistan’s Kurram Agency on Friday, Radio Free Europe quoted the intelligence officials as saying.

The Punjab government Mi-17 helicopter was on its way to Russia via Uzbekistan for maintenance when it crashed in Afghanistan, the officials said.

According to Dawn online, the reports have not been confirmed by Pakistani officials.

Both Russian and Pakistani governments were making efforts for the release of the crew. The Afghan government also initiated an operation for their rescue. The Foreign Office said earlier this week that the Afghan government was trying to secure their release with the help of tribal elders of the area.

Following the crash, Pakistani Army chief Gen Raheel Sharif had immediately called Commander Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan General Nicolson and asked him to help in the recovery of the crew.

WASHINGTON, Aug 13 (PTI): A hacker believed to be linked to Russia has posted cellphone numbers and other personal information of nearly 200 current and former congressional Democrats, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, in the latest public disclosure of sensitive records.

The documents obtained from the cyberattack on Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee was released by a hacker known as Guccifer 2.0.

Researchers believe Guccifer 2.0 is a front for a prominent hacking group with ties to the Russian military intelligence agency, dubbed ‘Fancy Bear’.

The Hill said the hacking is widely believed to be the work of Russian hackers.

“Word began to spread

Friday evening among Democrats whose personal information was posted, and several became furious, a congressional staffer said. Not all the information appeared to be correct, as at least one email address listed on the spreadsheet was no longer current,” The Wall Street Journal said. In its tweet, Guccifer 2.0 said that it would provide “the major trove” of stolen information from the DCCC, including emails, to WikiLeaks, the daily said.

“The same Twitter account sent a message to The Wall Street Journal on Friday evening that said the hacker had acted alone, not as part of a team,” the daily said.

The cellphone numbers of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California and Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer

of Maryland were among the information posted.

The posting of the cellphone numbers and personal email addresses of members of Congress has national security implications. Included in the spreadsheet were the personal information of members of the House Intelligence, Armed Services and Foreign Relations Committees. Foreign spies could use that information to try to intercept sensitive communications, the Journal said. The DCCC breach was reported late last month. In June, Guccifer claimed responsibility for hacking the Democratic National Committee and posting an opposition research document of Donald Trump online.

IS frees hundreds of civilians in Syria

A member of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) indicates a safe street to civilians fleeing the zones controlled by the Islamic State (IS) group.

BEIRUT, Aug 13 (Agencies): The Islamic State group has freed hundreds of civilians used by the jihadists as human shields while retreating in northern Syria, US-backed forces and a monitor said Saturday.

A source from the Syrian Democratic Forces, which pushed IS out of the city of Manbij this week with the aid of US-led air strikes, told AFP that some of the civilians were able to escape while “others were freed”.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a British-based monitor, said that several hundred of the civilians taken were no longer

held by IS. The SDF, an ArabKurdish alliance, launched an assault in May on Manbij, on a key jihadist supply route between the Turkish border and IS’s de facto Syrian capital Raqa.

IS fighters seized around 2,000 civilians as they fled Manbij on Friday, using them as protection against air strikes en route to the jihadist-held town of Jarabulus, on the Turkish-Syrian border.

“Among the civilians taken by IS there were people used as human shields but also many who chose voluntarily to leave the town due to fear of reprisals” by the SDF,

Beijing, Aug 13 (PTI): Heavy downpours swept through parts of China, resulting in closure of 34 tourist destinations and relocation of over 7,000 people.

Officials closed 34 tourist destinations after torrential rains lashed a district on the outskirts of northeast Beijing Friday.

The Miyun district received up to 208.2 millimeters of rainfall yesterday prompting local authorities to issue a red alert for heavy rain and geological disasters.

More than 2,700 villagers were relocated and 8,100 personnel joined flood control efforts.

The district is forecast to see further rains last night, leaving the mountainous regions with a high risk of flooding and geological disasters.

Two other districts on the outskirts of Beijing -Pinggu and Fangshan -- have issued orange alerts for rainstorms.

China has a four-tier weather warning system, with red representing the most severe, followed by orange, yellow and blue.

The city is forecast to be hit by rainstorms over the next three days, said the Beijing emergency response center.

In neighboring Hebei Province, cities of Shijiazhuang, Xingtai, Baoding and Langfang have also seen heavy rain. From Thursday to Friday, precipitation was 18.7 millimeters on average, with some places receiving over 100 millimeters.

The jihadists, who have suffered a string of losses in Syria and Iraq, have often staged mass abductions when they come under pressure to relinquish territory they hold.

IS has also boobytrapped cars and carried out suicide bombings to slow advances by their opponents.

According to the Observatory, 437 civilians, including more than 100 children, were killed in the battle for Manbij and surrounding territory.

Around 300 SDF fighters died, along with more than 1,000 jihadists, it said.

Donald Trump

has also refused to endorse the former reality TV star, even making a point to make speeches voicing his disappointment with the GOP candidate.

“Here’s what I know. Donald Trump is a phony, a fraud. His promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump University,” Romney said in March.

Trump fired back at Romney saying he “understand losers, you can make a lot of money with losers,” adding that Romney’s 2012 presidential run was a failure because the former Massachusetts governor “choked like a dog, he’s a choker.”

Not only haven’t previous Republican presidential nominees not backed Trump, but both living former Republican presidents, George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush, have abstained from supporting the 2016 GOP ticket.

George W. Bush, who has supported every GOP ticket since leaving office, has said he is worried he may be “the last Republican president.” While George H. W. Bush has made it clear that after campaigning for his son Jeb Bush, who also refuses to back Trump, he has no plans to endorse.

Paul Ryan is one bigname Republican who eventually threw his support behind Trump after initially saying he was “not there right now” when asked if he would endorse the billionaire businessman.

Nagaland’s first children’s indoor soft play zone, Peek-A-Boo Inaugurated

P

eek-A-Boo, Nagaland’s first children’s indoor soft play zone was inaugurated on the 13th of August

by Shri. Khriehu Liezietsu, Hon. Parliamentary Secretary, Youth Resources and Sports, and Lotteries at North Hill Complex Building, High School Junction Kohima. Shri. Khriehu called this venture innovative and observed that it would benefit the public, especially the children of Kohima. Pastor Kedo Peseyie of City Church Kohima pronounced a prayer of blessing for the playzone. Proprietor Al-

lan Lyngdoh shared that this play zone was inspired by a growing trend around the world for indoor soft play zones which allowed parents to bring their children into a safe and clean place to play. He felt that it was needed in a place like Kohima where weather was unpredictable.

Peek-A-Boo play zone is open from 10am to 6pm Monday-Saturday and 1pm to 6pm on Sundays. The play area is for children upto 8 years only. The rates are Rs.150/- for 30mins and Rs.200/- for 1hour. One ticket admits the child along

with a parent or caretaker. Additional persons who are 9 years or above are charged Rs.100/- for entry. To ensure safety of the children, one room is reserved exclusively for children 4 years and below. Children who are 9 years and above may enter but cannot play in the play zone in order to avoid damage to the play equipment as well as accidents with smaller children.

The play zone is also available for hire on occasions such as birthday parties, kitty parties etc.

Rio de Janeiro, Aug 13 (IANS): India’s women’s hockey team was crushed by higher-ranked Argentina 0-5 to suffer fourth consecutive loss in Pool B and failed to advance to the quarter-finals of the Olympic Games here on Saturday.

In the must-win game for both the teams, Argentina sealed the match in the second quarter which yielded them five

goals in a mesmerising display of attacking hockey.

Martina Cavallero (16th and 29th minutes), Maria Granatto (23rd), Carla Rebecchi (26th) and Agustina Albertarrio (27th) scored for the world No.2 side. With this loss, India remained in the sixth spot, while the United States, Britain, Australia and Argentina made it to the quarter-finals.

Argentina, having lost three and won a match, were desperate to restore their reputation. They had finished runners-up in the 2012 Games and also at the 2014 World Cup. And they were favourites to win over India, who qualified for the Summer Games after a gap of 36 years. Argentina started on a quiet manner but they peaked towards the end of

the first quartet. They earned a penalty corner in the 15th minute but Indian custodian Savita dived to her low right to deny a flick from captain Carla Rebecchi.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Argentina went on the offensive and got a penalty corner. Rebecchi’s flick was again denied by Savita but Cavallero hit the ball home on the rebound to break the deadlock.

The next goal was a sensational solo goal from Granatto, who ran past three to four defenders from the left to lift the ball high into the net in the 23rd minute. Three minutes later, Rebecchi successfully converted a penalty corner to make it 3-0, before Albertarrio’s cross from the left base-line was deflected into the goal as the ball touched a leg of an Indian defender.

Later, Cavallero scored a field goal to make it 5-0 as the 30 minutes of play almost sealed the match for the Argentines. Leading by 5-0, Argentina dropped the intensity in the second half but the Indians were not able to make the most out of the situation.

India’s best chances came in the 40th minute when Rani Rampal had her drag-flick saved by a diving Maria Mutio, who moved to the right in no time to deny India’s opener.

Manish finishes 13th in men’s 20km race walk Rio de Janeiro, Aug 13 (IANS): India’s Manish Singh finished 13th in the men’s 20km race walk event at the Rio Olympics. Manish clocked 1:21:21 in the race. The event was dominated by Chinese runners. Zhen Wang clinched the gold clocking 1:19:14 followed by compatriot Zelin Cai who clocked 1:19:26 to take the silver medal.

The World No. 21 Indian pair never really looked in the hunt as they lost the first game in just 15 minutes before going down in 17 minutes in the second to the No. 5 Chinese duo. Manu and Sumeeth now find themselves out of contention to progress to the next round after losing their second consecutive Group D match. On Thursday, the Indian duo lost 18-21, 13-21 to Indonesia’s Mohammad Ahsan and Hendra Setiawan in their opening encounter.

secutive volley errors meant that Indians were first to blink.

However, the Indians immediately got the break back as Watson dropped serve at love. A flurry of unforced errors by the Briton set Indians nicely with three chances and Bopanna found a backhand winner.

A nervous looking Watson struggled with her serve and was again down 0-40. The Indians seized the advantage.

Murray failed to put across a strong forehand return from Sania, putting the Indians ahead 4-3. Sania came out serving solid in the next set as India led 5-3. Bopanna served out the first set without fuss, hitting two aces.

T h e B r i t i s h p l aye r s played better as a team in the second but the Indians were up for the task and broke Murray in the fifth for a 3-2 lead.

That lead stayed with the Indians and Bopanna sealed the issue on the third match point with an overhead smash.

roughly two-thirds of the game. But the Americans flirted with danger all afternoon, often leaving just one defender back. Both teams had goals called back in extra time on extremely questionable offsides calls.

The loss means the U.S. women won’t make the semifinal of a major tournament for the first time. While that outcome was unexpected, head coach Jill Ellis gambled at these Olympics by taking several younger, first-time Olympians over proven Olympians to try to get them experience before the 2019 World Cup in France.

25TH DEATH ANNIVERSARY

Sania, Bopanna seal semis spot Rio de Janeiro, Aug 13 (PTI): Sania Mirza and Rohan Bopanna subdued Britain’s Andy Murray and Heather Watson with remarkable ease to breeze into the mixed doubles semifinals of the Rio Olympic Games here.

The fourth seeded Indian pair dominated the quarterfinal contest, winning 6-4 6-4 in just 67 minutes.

One more victory will ensure India a silver medal and a defeat in the semifinals would give Sania and Bopanna a chance to fight for the bronze.

Murray seemed conserving his energy for the bigger battle ahead. His heavy legs and stifled movement on the court made the task easier for the Indians.

Watson did not look like a player who won the Wimbledon mixed double title this year, struggling badly with her serve and ground strokes in the opening set.

Bopanna began with a double fault and Sania’s con-

Going up against their former coach, Pia Sundhage, the U.S. women failed to connect on several quality chances in the first half.

The U.S. got the equalizer in the 77th minute as Alex Morgan buried a ball that deflected off Sweden defender Jessica Samuelsson right to her left foot.

Hull City stuns champs in PL opener

Robert Snodgrass ensured the Premier League champions started the new campaign with a shock defeat.

Earlier, Riyad Mahrez’s penalty had drawn Leicester level following Adama Diomande’s spectacular opener on the stroke of half-time.

Leicester will look back ruefully on a first-half they dominated without making it count - Jamie Vardy particularly wasteful in front of goal.

Vardy completely missed his kick in the 19th minute after good work down the left from Ahmed Musa, with Mahrez blasting wide seconds later after picking up the loose ball.

The Foxes could have gone a goal up midway through the first period when Mahrez set up Danny Drinkwater, only for the England midfielder to aim inches wide

Hull goalkeeper Eldin Jakupovic denied Christian Fuchs shortly before the interval, with the defender popping up inside the area after a neat one-two with Musa. Both Vardy and Mahrez had opportunities from the resulting scramble but neither managed to find the net, the former denied by a wonderful block by Jake Livermore.

Vardy was again profligate in the 44th minute when he fired wildly over after yet more good work from the impressive Musa.

And Hull, for whom Curtis Davies came close early on with a header from Snodgrass’ corner, made him pay in the dying seconds of the

Rio de janeiro, Aug 13 (IANS): The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has condemned athletes for the disrespectful attitude to each other during the Olympics, including towards Russian four-time world swimming champion Yulia Efimova, IOC’s communications director Mark Adams has said.

“This is unacceptable, we would like to remind all participants of the Games about the Olympic values.

Even after the event they still meet together, spend free time together, having dinner together, he said on Friday, reports Tass.

“We believe that build bridges, not erect walls, but for many reasons, athletes are unable to shake hands with each other, it is shameful and India’s Lalita Babar (C) competes in a women’s 3000meter steeplechase heat. (AP/PTI) unacceptable,” he said.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug 13 (Agencies): Katie Ledecky completed her Olympic freestyle tour de force Friday night with another annihilation of the field, and another world record in the 800-meter free.

Ledecky, the defending champion in the event that first put her on the international radar, recorded a winning time of 8:04.79, breaking her own record set in January by 1.89 seconds. The outcome of the race was never in doubt, and the Brazilian crowd loudly urged Ledecky on in pursuit of a new standard of greatness in the longest female Olympic swimming event. Ledecky already owned all of the top10 times in the history of the 800 free, and this adds another layer to her dominance.

The result also gives the 19-year-old from Bethesda, Maryland, four gold medals in the Rio Games and five medals overall, moving her into elite all-time company.

Only one woman, Kristin Otto of East Germany, has won more gold medals in a single Olympics (six in 1988).

Ledecky ties Amy Van Dyken (1996) and Missy Franklin (2012) for the American record of four.

With her 2012 gold plus three here, Ledecky is tied for second in Olympic history for most individual gold medals in a career with four. The all-time record is five, set by Krisztina Egerszegi of Hungary. Given Ledecky’s age, she could break that record with ease in 2020 if she maintains her current dominance. Ledecky also is the first woman since American Debbie Meyer in 1968 to sweep the 200, 400 and 800 freestyles.

Messi announces return from retirement Barcelona, Aug 13 (IANS): Star forward Lionel Messi has announced his return to Argentina’s national team for their World Cup qualifiers in September, ending his short-lived retirement from international football.

A disappointed Messi had announced his international retirement after missing a penalty in the shootout defeat to Chile in the final of the Copa America Centenario in June.

It was the third consecutive loss for Argentina in the final of a major tournament following defeats at the 2015 Copa America and the 2014 World Cup. The announcement led to an outcry in Argentina with fans from all over the world expressing their disappointment.

Even the legendary Diego Maradona urged the Barcelona superstar to reconsider his decision.

“I see that there are a lot of problems in Argentina football and I don’t want to create more,” Messi said in a statement on Friday.

“I don’t want to cause harm, on the contrary, my goal was to help in any way I could.”

Messi, who is Argentina’s all-time leading scorer with 55 goals in 113 appearances, made references to problems within the Argentine Football Association (AFA) a few days before the Copa

opening period. Schmeichel did well to deny Davies but the ball bounced up for both Diomande and Abel Hernandez to turn goalwards with acrobatic efforts. Television replays showed Hernandez got the first touch, kicking it on to Diomande before it flew in off the underside of the crossbar.

Leicester immediately bounced back after the break, though, as Mahrez coolly converted from the spot to level the scoring in controversial fashion. Tom Huddlestone seemed to bring down Demarai Gray just outside the area, but referee Mike Dean pointed to the spot and Mahrez made no mistake.

It would have been easy for Hull to fold but they showed impressive mental fortitude to restore their lead in the 57th minute.

Schmeichel’s inaccurate throw towards Gray allowed Ahmed Elmohamady to raid forward and send in a dangerous cross from the right that eventually ended up at Snodgrass’ feet and the former Norwich City midfielder fired home. Mahrez came close to equalising for a second time with a fine free-kick, while substitute Shinji Okazaki also looked dangerous on a number of occasions, but Hull deserved their remarkable win.

It is the first time the Premier League champions have ever lost on the opening day of the following season.

London, Aug 13 (Agencies): Hull City put their abysmal pre-season to one side to stun Premier League champions Leicester City on the opening day.

The Tigers came into the contest without a fulltime manager following Steve Bruce’s departure - caretaker boss Mike Phelan took charge of the home side on Saturday - and just 13 fit senior professionals but produced a performance full of spirit to see off Claudio Ranieri’s men.

A second-half strike from Robert Snodgrass proved the difference, the Scotland international driving home from inside the area after Kasper Schmeichel had carelessly giving away possession.

Lionel Messi

America final.

The Barcelona star had said that the AFA was “a disaster” after the team suffered delayed flights and experienced problems finding opponents for training games.

“There are many things that need to be fixed in Argentine football. But I prefer to help from inside rather than stand on the outside and criticise,” the 29-year-old said.

“A lot of things ran through my head on the day of the Copa America final. And I seriously considered leaving the team. But I love my shirt and my country too much.”

“I want to thank all the fans who wanted me to keep playing for Argentina. I hope we can give them joy very soon.” With the CONMEBOL (South American Football Confederation) deadline

to name the squads for September’s qualifiers looming on Friday, newly-appointed Argentina manager Edgardo Bauza had expressed confidence that Messi will change his mind and opt to return to the national side. That belief was rewarded with Messi’s confirmation later in the day.

Bauza, who took over as the national team coach after the resignation of Gerardo Martino last month, had flown to Spain to meet Argentina players in Barcelona on Thursday and reassure them there would be order in the squad despite the ongoing chaos within the AFA. Argentina are preparing for September qualifiers against Uruguay and Venezuela after crashing out in the group stage of the Olympics for the first time since 1964.

Mertesacker new Arsenal captain London, Aug 13 (Agencies): Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has appointed Per Mertesacker as club captain despite the player being out until the New Year with injury.

The veteran German centre-back will miss the first four months of the season with knee problem, having undergone surgery, but will succeed Mikel Arteta, who retired, as skipper.

Wenger says he will look to experienced players Laurent Koscielny, Santi Cazorla and goalkeeper Petr Cech to take the armband in Mertesacker’s absence.

“Per is a very respected figure in the dressing room, is loved as well, and is also a very demanding figure,” Wenger said.

“I think it is absolutely natural to be him. In his absence, that’s where it will be taken by the assistants. One of them will be Koscielny, also Cazorla and Cech maybe - the experienced players. We will have a group of people that will take care of the energy levels and the problems of the team. That will be down a lot to the experienced players.”

Mertesacker, 31, joined Arsenal from Werder Bremen for £8m in 2011 and has made over 200 appearances for the club.
