Kashmir unrest continues

SRINAGAR/ ISLAMABAD, AUG 17 (AGENCIES): Two soldiers and a policeman were killed in a pre-dawn attack on Wednesday when militants ambushed an Indian Army convoy on a highway in north Kashmir’s Baramulla district -- the second deadly strike on security forces in three days.

The attack comes amid the deadliest Kashmir unrest in six years that began after the July 8 killing of rebel commander Burhan Wani. The militant’s death has provoked angry protests by Kashmiri youth who hail Wani as their hero. As the street unrest continues, militant violence has also escalated in the state.

Security officials blamed the unrest on the surge in militant attacks after years of decline. “Militants have been able to consolidate as security forces remain busy in controlling the unrest,” a top police officer told IANS in Baramulla where the latest attack occurred.

The officer said heavily armed men ambushed an army convoy near Baramulla town around 3. 30 a.m. and killed two soldiers. They struck again and killed one policeman when a police deployment reached there.

Authorities have said some 60 militants have managed to sneak into the valley from Pakistan in the weeks of unrest. At least four security personnel were injured in the attack, which comes two days after militants killed a para-

Ao Senden opposes govt’s decision on women quota DIMAPUR, AUG 17 (NPN): After, Naga Hoho expressed its displeasure over cabinet’s decision to go ahead with women reservation, “without consulting civil societies as one of the major stakeholders”, Ao Senden, apex body of the Ao community, on Wednesday came out openly against the state cabinet’s decision to implement 33% reservation for women in Urban Local bodies/Town Councils election.

Ao Senden president Imolemba Jamir and general secretary S. Panger Ao said they were surprised over the state government’s hustle to implement the said act when even the Parliament was yet to pass the act. “It is also totally in contrary to the Indian constitution Article 371 (A),” the Senden stated.

While asserting that it was totally against the Ao custom, the Senden reminded that in the community (Aos) there is no difference of status between male and female. “It is very disheartening to see our Ao women folks drawn to sink down to second class status by the state government,” the Senden lamented.

The Senden said ever since the Municipal Act was introduced, the content of land and house tax was opposed and never acceptable to the Aos under the aegis of Ao Senden. Later, under the Municipal Act, the Senden said addition of the so called 33% women reservation in ULBs/Town Councils was totally opposed and “forbidden to be implemented in the Ao land”.

Making its stand clear, the Ao Senden said: “We had totally opposed since the beginning and will never accept the above stated acts to be implemented in the near future too in our Ao land until the said clause is deleted and our demand is fulfilled.”

Hafiz Saeed asks Pak to send troops into Kashmir

Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) chief Hafiz Saeed commenting on the recent Kashmir issue has asked Pakistan military to send its troops into Kashmir to teach India a lesson. According to Pakistan media, the 26/11 mastermind Saeed has asked this to Army chief General Raheel Sharif.

Recounting his association with Wani, he said Hizbul Mujahideen commander was prepared to die after talking to him. Warning India, he said that it could either accept separatist Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani’s 4-point formula on Kashmir and withdraw security forces from the Valley, or face the decision in battlefield.

According to an official bulletin, the meeting held under the chairmanship of additional deputy commissioner (ADC) Kohima, Lithrongla Tongpi discussed that the tender system for permits for importing essential commodities to the municipal area was not good for the market in particular and the public in general and that it should be done away with.Following the discussions, the KMC was asked to continue with the old system of open tender until a concrete direction is received from the government.

The meeting also decided to write to the government on the issue of tendering of essential commodities in view of the negative impact of tendering of coupons on prices of essential commodities.

Further, the meeting decided that traders would inform the administration and police if anybody forced them to buy their coupons and that necessary action would be taken against such perpetrators.

KVYO was requested to keep on hold its proposed actions in view of the positive deliberations.

Naga bodies urge GoI to release all political prisoner

Naga self-administered zone in need of emergency rescue measures

DIMAPUR, AUG 17 (NPN): Naga Hoho (NH), Naga Mothers’ Association (NMA) and Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) while appreciating Government of India (GoI) for releasing Anthony Shimray on bail, reiterated its appeal to release all other Naga political prisoners irrespective of groups/factions without delay.

In joint statement, presidents of NH, P. Chuba Ozukum; Abeiu Meru (NMA) and Subenthung Kithan (NSF) said that the Naga mass based organizations have been appealing to GoI time and again to release all Naga political prisoners ever since the signing of cease fire agreement with different Naga political groups.

However, they expressed dismay that many Naga national workers, booked under the guise of various draconian laws, were yet to obtain justice even during the cease fire period. They said that the release of Anthony Shimray by GoI, who is part of the peace negotiating, was a sign of demonstration of the sincerity and seriousness of the peace process.

Shimray, was granted bail on August 2 by a special court in New Delhi in a case under the anti-terror act, after NIA said his bail was “important in the interest of peace negotiations between NSCN (IM) and the Government of India”.

YANGON, AUG 17 (AGENCIES): Rescue operations have not yet reached many diseaseaffected villages in the Naga Self-Administered Zone as of August 17, though the Council of Naga Affairs (CNA) has met with Vice President Henry Van Thio twice—once in Yangon on August 14 and once again in Nay Pyi Taw on August 16, reports Myanmar Eleven.

Ke Jung, the information officer of the CNA, said: “The vice president confirmed that seven tonnes of food and Ks 50 million have been sent to allow for immediate rescue operations when we met yesterday evening. He said he has to report other details of the process to the President’s Office and the State Counsellor’s Office.”

Food and rescue funds sent by the government reached Hkamti Township but not to Lahe Township because of bad weather in the area. The Naga leaders still expect rescue materials from the government to reach Lahe, though some of the provisions may expire before they reach the diseaseaffected villages.

“We suggested to the vice president that the rescue team should wait in Hkamti until the weather is good and to send the materials onward then.

I suggested to him that even if a helicopter cannot go to Lahe, it can deliver the goods to Thakyan, which is close to Lahe,” Ke Jung told the Myan-

mar Eleven.

Naga residents have urged the regional and central governments to take responsibility for the deaths in the Naga SAZ, which are thought to have been caused measles.

Naw Aung Sann, the general secretary of the CNA, said at a press conference on August 16 at the Orchid Hotel in Yangon that he was not pleased with the authorities’ performance in its emergency response. He said the government has not conducted rescue operations in a way that is commensurate to the magnitude of the emergency.

He continued: “I would like to ask to the government who is responsible for this situation—the authorities of the Naga Self-Administered Zone? The Sagaing Region government? Or the central government? We face such a tragedy today since the government did not do what it should have done in the past.

They cited difficulties in communication and transportation as excuses for their lack of an effective response. But who can improve the system? Only the government can offer an effective response.”

The mysterious disease outbreak started on June 6, when Pang Long, 90, died in Htankawnautkone Village in the Naga Self-Administered Zone. No one in the village knew the cause of his death until five more people in the

UNTABA slams discordant voices on border issue

DIMAPUR, AUG 17 (NPN): Drawing attention on reports appearing in the August 17 issue of local newspapers, United Naga Tribes Area Border Association (UNTABA) has slammed the statement purportedly made by the state home minister which it described as “not only nonsensical but completely contradicting the Border Affairs department” .

UNTABA chairman Hukavi T. Yeputhomi and general secretary Imsumongba Pongen in a joint statement quoted the home minister as stating that all efforts had been made to secure Nagaland border. They said this was contradictory to the Border Affairs department which was seriously involved in litigation of the border dispute for the past three decades filed by the then AGP government of Assam. They said Nagaland was respondent No.3 in the Civil Suit No.2 in which Assam claimed in the Supreme Court that the inter-state boundary

between Assam and Nagaland was yet to be clearly demarcated.

They said the “lame utterances” of the minister showed lack of co-ordination among government authorities and also revealed complete lack of responsibility and political will. This has only created more confusion among the people on an issue that confronted them daily.

UNTABA pointed out that Assam deployed 47 Assam Police posts along the border and even inside Nagaland while Nagaland has only 14 Nagaland Police posts since the 1972 interim agreement between the two states( as per figures with Border Affairs department) and reaffirmed in 1979. As per the agreement, UNTABA said administrative power was given Assam on the condition that it would not permit any settlements in the disputed border. However, even before denotifying the reserved forests, Assam allowed border areas to be completely

deforested to facilitate illegal settlements to people with doubtful origin.

It said the entire border from Doldoli Reserved Forest near Dimapur, to Tiru Reserve Forest and Abhayapur Reserved Forest in Mon districts have today become townships.

UNTABA criticised successive governments in the state for overlooking “such hard realities”.

The signatories maintained that UNTABA continued to urge and campaign with the state government to sincerely pursue the right perspective – fight vigorously for implementation of the Interim Agreement “in letter and spirit” through eviction of illegal settlements facilitated by Assam, in borer areas of all reserves forests. They said UNTABA reiterated its demand for implementation of the 16 Point Agreement between the government of India and people of Nagaland during formation of Nagaland state.

village died that month. The villagers informed to the governing council of the Naga Self-Administered Zone of the situation on July 9.

The disease has killed 42 people, including 13 male and 15 female of children in Lahe Township and eight female and six male of children in Donhee Township. Three children in Htankawlarma Village are facing life-threatening conditions now.

Naw Aung Sann said: “If our lives continue to be sacrificed because of bad roads and transportation, what benefit do we have from being citizens of this country? We doubt Myanmar’s commitment to human rights as we witness the events in Naga today.”

The Naga Self-Administered Zone, located in the northwestern edge of Myanmar, is the least developed area in the country. A lack of infrastructure and a poor transportation system are the root causes of several complicating factors in Naga, including malnutrition, starvation and low levels of health knowledge.

These conditions also contributed to the severity of the ongoing measles outbreak.

According to the CNA, people die from malnutrition in the Naga SAZ every year.

Obvious starvation hit the area in 1970, 1979, 1980 and 1981.

Serious starvation hit the area in 1997 and 1998, killing many people.

Call to observe anti-dengue dry day DIMAPUR, AUG 17 (NPN): In view of the household based field study proposed to be conducted by Urban Vector Borne Disease Scheme, Dimapur, which shows high rate of presence of Aedes Aegypti (Vector of Dengue) in and around Dimapur, the Vector Borne Disease Committee has decided to hold Anti-Dengue Dry Day Campaign on Saturday every week in Dimapur town.

In a press release, the deputy commissioner (DC) Dimapur, Kesonyu Yhome, has therefore requested all the residents of Dimapur to observe anti-dengue dry day camping in and around their homes.

During this campaign, DC said the citizens would clean all stagnant water inside and outside their homes like water in coolers, in water tanks, in flower pots, in coconut shells, broke/discarded vessels, tryes etc. Since this species of mosquito needs around one week to complete its life cycle, DC said the exercise needs to be carried out at least once a week to protect oneself from Dengue.

Mima’s traditional beekeeping a tourism potential TN Assembly: DMK MLAs suspended en masse Correspondent

KOHIMA, AUG17 (NPN): A tourist guest house has been proposed at Mima village in southern Angami area of Kohima district, under Tourism department. After inspecting the site with minister of forest Dr. Nicky Kire and Vikho-o Yhoshu, MLA and in presence of well known village businessman Vilelie Khamo, parliamentary secretary Tourism C. Apok Jamir said the tourism potential of the village would be a boon for the department to become a reality.

Addressing a function to mark the occasion, Apok described the Village Bee Keeping Committee (VBKC) which used the rare traditional bee keeping method, as the best attraction for promoting tourism.

Apok pointed out that nature was the strength of tourism and economic viability while the other was the unique Naga traditional practices. He urged the village to preserve traditional practice and to keep it alive as this was the uniqueness of Nagas. He also reasserted

that Nagas were known for their hospitality, which was an attraction for tourists. He therefore urged the villagers to be kind and hospitable to visiting tourists and stressed on unity and cooperation for success of any development project.

He also suggested that villagers construct a view point at the site with traditional method using bamboo before the Hornbill Festival. While acknowledging the use of traditional bee keeping method, the minister also asked villagers to explore modern methods in order to know which was more productive for growth and marketing. Vikho-o Yhoshu,

MLA of the area, thanked the minister of forest and the tourism parliamentary secretary for taking keen interest in Mima and expressed the hope that the tourist guest house would materialise soon. Vilelie Khamo well known Class-I contractor of Mima expressed optimism that the tourism department would do its best for the village and also the state.

Others who also spoke included Mima village chairman Neikeduzo Livi Angam and VBKC representative Kho-o Pfukha. Dr Nicky had procured the site for the village to establish tourist view point considering the potential of the

village. The view point located at a vantage point evolved to the proposed guest house. The main attraction for tourism was the successful implementation of the “Honey Mission” in Mima village through traditional/ indigenous method.

This attracted many tourists in the recent years and villagers now look forward to promote tourism by constructing tourist guest house village. Mima village was declared as Honey Village by the state government in 2006. The honey village has more than 2000 varieties of beehives where more than 4000 litres are harvested in a season.

NEW DELHI, AUG 17 (AGENCIES): Tamil Nadu speaker P Dhanapal on Wednesday suspended all 89 DMK MLAs for a week from the Assembly for continuous disruption of proceedings.

Trouble erupted during the debate on demands for grants for the Housing and IT departments when AIADMK member S Gunasekaran, without naming Stalin, made some remarks about the ‘Namaku Naame’ programme undertaken by the DMK Treasurer in the run up to this year’s assembly election.

During the ‘Namakku Naame’ programme, Stalin had extensively toured the state and interacted with people.

The remarks about the programme triggered strong objection from the DMK members who wanted the Speaker to expunge them. Dhanapal, however, said the MLA had not made any pointed reference to anyone and therefore there was no need to expunge the remarks. DMK Deputy Leader Durai Murugan said Namakku Naame was an ini-

tiative of Stalin and therefore the remarks refer only to him and sought their expunction.

At one point, Stalin himself rose and said he was proud that Namakku Naamme had featured in an assembly debate. Following this, the DMK members stood up and opposed the Speaker’s action even as Dhanapal asked them to cooperate in the smooth conduct of the House. Since the DMK members did not heed his repeated pleas, he summoned the marshals to evict the agitat-

ing MLAs. Stalin, who was physically removed, staged a brief sit-in before being finally taken out of the House.

The Speaker later said he had to resort to such an action as the DMK members did not heed his pleas for cooperation.

Leader of the House and Finance Minister O Panneerselvam then moved a resolution for the suspension of the DMK members for a week, which was passed by a voice vote in the AIADMK-dominated House.

IMPHAL, Aug 17: Alleging that contractors in Manipur’s Naga area take recommendation from the NSCN (I-M), Manipur Naga People’s Front (MNPF) said that the outfit will start checking on the development works execution by the contractors. In a statement signed by assistant publicity secretary MNPF, Thomas Numai, alleged the NSCN (I-M) will start checking on the development works execution by the contractors to strengthen the development in the hill area, particularly in the Naga areas of Manipur. “For the last 20 years 90% of the development works of the hill areas particularly in the Naga areas have been spoiled by NSCN (I-M),” it stated. “It’s really wonder and very unfortunate on the part of the Manipur Government accepting the NSCN (I-M) recommendations to award any work order,” MNPF rued.

Questioning whether the government of Manipur was under NSCN (I-M), MNPF warned and appealed to all the contractors not to take any NSCN (I-M) recommendation to award the work agency.

IMPHAL, Aug 17: Barely a day after he broke his silence since Manipur police declared him ‘wanted’, former JCILPS convener Kh Ratan Wednesday joined the relayhunger strike of the JCILPS volunteers staged in Imphal’s Keishampat junction.

Police couldn’t arrest him even as women volunteers of the JCILPS converged in large number at the protest site to prevent the police from arresting Ratan.

Khomdram Ratan who was then convener of the Joint Committee on Inner Line Permit System (JCILPS) was declared ‘wanted’ by the Manipur police on June 2 last with a reward of Rs. 5 lakh for any informant who could provide information leading to his arrest.

Ratan tendered his resignation as convener of the JCILPS on the next day.

Since then he refrained from appearing before the media.

However, he unexpectedly gave a media briefing late Tuesday somewhere in Imphal area.

He alleged the government and the state police of violating the Constitution

to declare him “wanted” to show him in bad light.

Expressing dismay, Ratan had reiterated that he had never violated the Constitution and he spearheaded the Inner Line Permit movement to protect the indigenous people in the state.

His media appearance came after the High Court of Manipur reserved its verdict on a criminal petition filed by him (Ratan) in the court with a prayer for quashing the case on Tuesday.

Police declared him wanted after a criminal case was registered at Singjamei PS of Imphal West against Ratan on June 2, alleging him to be a member of the banned outfit, United National Liberation Front (UNLF), and for indulging in prejudicial activities against the state, promoting social unrest and enmity among different groups of people living in the state in recent past. Volunteers of JCILPS (Women Wing) are staging the relay-hunger strike since August 3. Besides demanding the ILPS, the activists were demanding roll back of ‘wanted’ tag labelled against the former JCILPS convener.

DIPHU, AUG 17: Chief executive member (CEM) of Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council (KAAC), Tuliram Ronghang, has reiterated the demand for statehood of Karbi Anglong and called for implementation of 244 (A) of the Constitution of India.

Speaking on the occasion of the official 70thIndependence Day celebration here at KASA stadium as chief guest, Tuliram asserted that Karbi Anglong with a total area of 10,434 Sq Km was much larger than several states in the country, including Goa and Sikkim, but was receiving mush less financial allocation from the centre merely because of the

difference in the political status. The CEM, however, made it clear that the youths associated with extremist organizations like KPLT and UPLA must shun violence and come forward to pursue the cause of statehood peacefully and democratically like the UPDS and the KLNLF. He said that if the KPLT and UPLA shunned violence and embraced peace, the KAAC would extend help.

Tuliram also highlighted the achievements made by the KAAC under his leadership and also the plans and programmes chalked out by the BJP government under Narendra Modi and the chief minister of the state Sarbananda Sonowal.

N e w D e lh i , AU G 1 7 (IANS): Former Union Minister Najma Heptulla, who resigned last month after crossing 75 years of age, has been appointed governor of Manipur while Banwarilal Purohit will be the new governor of Assam.

Heptulla was among four Governors named by the Centre along with those for Assam, Punjab and Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

Heptulla, 76, had resigned from the union cabinet on July 12, almost a week after PM Narendra Modi expanded his Council of Ministers.

She had to resign on age grounds as the BJP in an unwritten code had fixed the maximum age for ministers at 75. She will replace V. Shanmuganathan, who as Meghalaya Governor was holding additional charge of Manipur.

Manipur, like Punjab, is headed for assembly elections next year. Purohit, former Congressmen from Maharashtra who later joined the BJP, has been three-time Member of Parliament from Nagpur.

Oppn parties in Kashmir to approach Prez, want probe

Leaders of various political parties at a joint meeting convened by National Conference in Srinagar on Wednesday. (PTI) SRINAGAR, AUG 17 (PTI): With Kashmir on the boil, the state’s opposition parties today decided to approach President Pranab Mukherjee to apprise him of the “real” situation even as they demanded a probe by a retired Supreme Court judge into alleged use of excessive force by security personnel.

The meeting of leaders of National Conference, Congress and CPI(M) besides some Independents also wanted a special session of the Assembly to discuss the situation and decided to send a delegation of opposition parties to Delhi to press for a dialogue with all stakeholders.

They insisted that blaming Pakistan for everything that goes wrong in Kashmir was not the right approach.

“We have decided to seek time from the President to apprise him about the real ground situation in Kashmir,” National Conference working president Omar Abdullah told reporters here after the meeting at his residence. The meeting was also attended by Congress leaders including JKPCC chief G A Mir, CPI(M) MLA Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami, Independent MLAs Hakim Mohammad Yasin and Sheikh Abdul Rashid and former minister Ghulam Hassan Mir. “We will try to persuade the (Union) government to take

steps that will at least help in improving the situation in the Valley,” Omar said while referring to the unrest which has been going on for the last 40 days and resulted in the killing of 63 people. The former Chief Minister said the opposition parties have demanded an inquiry by a retired Supreme Court judge into the allegations of excessive force by security forces while dealing with protestors.

“Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti in her speech on August 15 has herself said that some elements in security forces did not follow her instructions (of exercising maximum restraint). So this is an opportune time for a judicial inquiry headed by a retired Supreme Court judge,” he said.

He said all the opposition parties were worried over the youth getting killed and injured in security forces’ firing, while the state and the central governments “mishandled” the situation. “We are also worried that the political nature of Jammu and Kashmir has neither been accepted nor understood. When it has not been accepted, it is implied that no efforts have been made to find a solution to it,” he said.

Omar said Kashmir is a political issue which needs to be addressed politically.

“The first step is to admit

and recognise the anger and then take steps to address it. So far that has not happened,” he said. “The All-Party Meeting chaired by the Prime Minister (on August 12) happened because Parliament was in session and it was the opposition’s initiative that brought the issue twice for discussion.

Otherwise, we would not have heard anything from the government,” the National Conference leader said.

Asked about the Centre raising the Balochistan issue, Omar said his personal view was that efforts should be focused on setting “our own house in order”.

“You (Centre) want to rake up Balochistan, by all means do it but there is a fire burning in Kashmir. It also should be addressed,” he said.

On Pakistan’s role, Omar said, “While Pakistan has a habit of fishing in troubled waters, I do not think the present situation is because of it. If we believe that Pakistan is behind all this, it means that we do not have to do anything to set things right.”

As far as dialogue with Pakistan is concerned, “we have been votaries of dialogue for resolution. Jammu and Kashmir was made an issue between India and Pakistan way back in 1970s with the Simla Agreement.

India rejects Pakistan’s FS-level talks proposal

NEW DELHI, AUG 17 (PTI): India today rejected Pakistan’s proposal to hold Foreign Secretary-level talks on Kashmir and made it clear that terrorism was “central” to its relations with Islamabad, whose different view and attitude has made it difficult for bilateral ties to grow.

Responding to Pakistan Foreign Secretary Aizaz Ahmad Chaudhry’s invitation, India’s Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar expressed his willingness to travel to Islamabad to discuss aspects related to crossborder terrorism which are central to the current situation in Jammu and Kashmir.

The response, which was handed over to Pakistan Foreign Ministry by Indian envoy to Islamabad Gautam Bambawale, also maintained that the neighbouring country has no locus standi in addressing any aspect of the situation in J&K, which is an internal matter of India, except to put an end to cross-border terrorism and infiltration. Later talking to the media here, Jaishankar said India has made great efforts to reach out to Pakistan but it clearly faces a unique challenge in Pakistan’s response. “Terrorism issue has become so central to the relationship that it makes the ties difficult to grow,” the Foreign Secretary said.

He also hit out at Pakistan, saying while rest of the region is with India in wanting a much more cooperative and connected South Asia, a “standout country’s” view and attitude towards terrorism as an instrument of policy of diplomacy makes it a “difficult partner” in the region.

Noting that India has faced a number of cross-border

infiltrations and attacks, Jaishankar said during one such assault a Pakistani terrorist was also caught, clearly showing the neighbour’s involvement.

Earlier, while rejecting Pakistan’s offer for talks on Kashmir, government sources said that since aspects related to cross-border terrorism are central to the current situation in J&K, India has proposed that discussions between the Foreign Secretaries be focused on them. “We have also conveyed that Government of India rejects in their entirety the selfserving allegations regarding the situation in J&K, which is an integral part of India where Pakistan has no locus standi,” the sources added.

Pakistan had on Monday invited India for talks on Kashmir, saying it is the “international obligation” of both the countries to resolve the issue. The invitation was extended amid tension in bilateral ties due to the war of words between the two nations over the continuing unrest in Kashmir. India and Pakistan have been engaged in a war of words over the statements

by Islamabad on the situation in Kashmir which is witnessing a turmoil following the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani last month.

Wani was hailed as a martyr by Pakistan, which also tried to internationalise the Kashmir issue with Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and the country’s foreign office writing to a host of countries besides the United Nations, while India has been maintaining that Pakistan-sponsored terrorism in the Valley is the root cause of the turbulence.

NEP to give boost to Indian languages, says Javadekar NEW DELHI, AUG 17 (PTI): All Indian languages including Sanskrit, will get a boost under the New Education Policy (NEP) that the government is working on, HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar said today.

“The policy of the Indian government is that there should be development of all Indian languages. Sometimes I feel, that more than the British, we have anglicised our country in the last 50-60 years. However, English too is a good language,” he said.

Javadekar was speaking at the inauguration of an event under which over a dozen institutions including the Rashtriya Sanskrit Sansthan, would hold week-long contests and other activities in schools to promote Sanskrit.

On the New Education Policy (NEP), he said the previous commissions had rightfully given a prominent place to Sanskrit.

“We are also moving towards NEP and there was a debate in Parliament. Nobody opposed the development of Indian languages because through it we can promote our culture.

All Indian languages have their speciality,” he said .

5 No new govt liquor shop in Delhi: Arvind Kejriwal

Arvind Kejriwal with his deputy Manish Sisodia addresses a press conference in New Delhi on Wednesday. (PTI) NEW DELHI, AUG 17 (IANS/AGENCIES): Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said that no new liquor shop with a government license would be opened in the national capital.

C om munic a ting the Delhi cabinet decision to the media, Kejriwal said: “No new liquor shop with L6 license (government license) will be opened in Delhi.”

The decision was taken by the government following several complaints of unruly behaviour from places around liquor shops.

The Chief Minister also warned that strict action will be taken against shop own-

ers and managers of existing liquor shops if any wrong activities are reported about them.

“If people are upset with liquor shops, then mohalla sabhas (neighbourhood meetings) will decide whether to shift them or shut them down,” Kejriwal said.

At these meetings, there should at least be 15 per cent neighbourhood voters and a third of the gathering should be women. A decision needs to be backed by a two-thirds majority.

Liquor franchisees need to ensure that there are no brawls outside their shops, asserted the chief minister.

Mess in Indian sports

R

io Olympic 2016 is nearing its end, but India still awaits a tick on its medal tally for this year’s games India sent its biggest ever delegation of 118 athletes to the Rio Olympics and it will be a big achievement if the country can win at least one gold or silver medals. It may be recalled, that at the 2012 London Olympics India sent 83 athletes and won two silver and four bronze medals. Earlier at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, India sent 57 athletes and achieved its best haul and strike rate where it won on gold and two bronze medals. India has a population of 132,88,04,340 but unfortunately, except for cricket played by dozen countries, it is a dwarf among other nations in other sports. Even hockey which used to be dominated by India, today it struggles to reach the quarterfinals in Olympics. In contrast, smaller nations with a fraction of India’s population are doing much better. Fiji with a population of 8,93,000 won one gold medal and Singapore with a population of 54,70,000 also won one gold medal. With a population 6,81,70,943 almost the same with Karnataka, Thailand won two gold and two silver medals so far. Population –wise China and India are the world’s two highest populated countries. By that reckoning, when China so far won 17 gold, 15 silver and 19 bronze medals, India should win at least 5 gold medals. So much has been said and written, about the factors responsible that have led to Indian sports remaining dismal throughout the decades but nothing concrete has been done to change all that. Population may not be a criteria for winning medals but it is simple logic that more people mean more participation. However, the sorry state of Indian sports is not because of lack of sports culture or policy. What ails Indian sports is the problem with the government which feels it is solely responsible for promoting it. In fact, Indian sports under government control will never come to season. That is because the politicians and bureaucrats don’t see beyond controlling sports because they want to call the shots. What those who had won a medal in past games have clearly spoken against government control over sports. Unless politicians are removed as heads of sporting bodies including their chamchas, Indian sports will never get the oxygen and sunshine needed to grow. Take the recent controversies created by central sports minister Vijay Goel’s visit to Rio where instead of trying to learn and understand the problems of the athletes, the government of India was issued with a stern warning because of the behaviour of the minister’s entourage. How Indian politicians and bureaucrats understand their roles was exemplified

by Haryana sports minister Anil Vij who went with a nine-member entourage to Rio for the purpose of “learning” other countries have developed sports and bring back some practical ideas. Needless to say, Vij and his entourage were busy sightseeing or shopping according to a newspaper report and had no time to watch the games. There are those who have a misplaced notion on how to encourage Indian sportspersons by praising their efforts especially missing bronze medal(s) by a whisker.

If 118 athletes were sent to miss bronze by a whisker, then perhaps it would do the nation proud if only those world class standard athletes and able to win, should be sent.

DailyDevotion Are You Discouraged or Devoted?

…Jesus…said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have…and come, follow Me.” But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful, for he was very rich. —Luke 18:22-23 Have you ever heard the Master say something very difficult to you? If you haven’t, I question whether you have ever heard Him say anything at all. Jesus says a tremendous amount to us that we listen to, but do not actually hear. And once we do hear Him, His words are harsh and unyielding.

Jesus did not show the least concern that this rich young ruler should do what He told him, nor did Jesus make any attempt to keep this man with Him. He simply said to him, “Sell all that you have…and come, follow Me.” Our Lord never pleaded with him; He never tried to lure him— He simply spoke the strictest words that human ears have ever heard, and then left him alone.

Have I ever heard Jesus say something difficult and unyielding to me? Has He said something personally to me to which I have deliberately listened— not something I can explain for the sake of others, but something I have heard Him say directly to me? This man understood what Jesus said. He heard it clearly, realizing the full impact of its meaning, and it broke his heart. He did not go away as a defiant person, but as one who was sorrowful and discouraged. He had come to Jesus on fire with zeal and determination, but the words of Jesus simply froze him.

Instead of producing enthusiastic devotion to Jesus, they produced heartbreaking discouragement. And Jesus did not go after him, but let him go. Our Lord knows perfectly well that once His word is truly heard, it will bear fruit sooner or later. What is so terrible is that some of us prevent His words from bearing fruit in our present life.

I wonder what we will say when we finally make up our minds to be devoted to Him on that particular point? One thing is certain— He will never throw our past failures back in our faces.

A page from quit India movement

s India prepares to commemorate 68 years of freedom from British imperial rule, it may be worth remembering a dusty town in Uttar Pradesh that suffered the consequences of declaring itself an independent country for a few days in 1942.The sovereign Republic of Ballia, headed by Chittu Pandey, managed to survive for some seven days before British-led military and police forces managed to regain control and unleashed a series of atrocities that are still remembered by the descendants of those who were raped, beaten and killed by shooting, firing and burning.

At the orders of an English police officer called Fletcher, an estimated 130 leaders of the local independence movement were hanged. Those who were not hanged were forced to climb trees where they were bayoneted. Those who managed to avoid the tree punishments were taken to local jails where they were suspended by their legs and starved. Those who avoided the leg suspension torture were forced to sit together on the floors of the jails where

they were fed chapattis that gave them dysentery.

Ballia offers a small insight into the realities of colonial rule where ‘lesser breeds’ like the Indians suffered unimaginable miseries at the hands of their white rulers. Some of those tortures resulting in death, whether it involved bayoneting or being forced to lie on blocks of ice for hours on end, were not all that different from what the Jews endured at the hands of the Nazis. The difference is that what happened in places like Auschwitz in Germany has been well documented and some of those responsible for what happened in the concentration camps have been brought to justice, if not by the allied powers and post Nazi Germany at the international court of justice in the Hague, then certainly by the modern state of Israel.

Atrocities committed in places like Ballia that joined in the Quit India movement of 1942 are still not fully documented. As for the likes of Commissioner Fletcher, no one to this day knows what happened to him and whether he was ever held to account

how the British administration was treated by the leaders of the independence movement.

British officials and their local toadies were gathered together and peacefully ushered across the railway line that divided the civil and military lines of the town. None were harmed in any way. Even more instructive was the unity that prevailed in those days between Hindus and Muslims.

Inevitably, when they returned the British committed all kinds of atrocities. They did not want the national flag to be hoisted in Ballia and they shot and killed any who dared to do so.

Emerging from the shadows of the town was a young Muslim who was killed when he tried to raise a flag that was not the Union Jack. It is still a matter of local pride in Ballia that before the flag fell to the ground, another volunteer took it upon himself to grab and support that symbol of national pride.

Some 11 men were killed one after another by soldiers of the crown. Significantly, this gesture of defiance by the citizens of Ballia was never reported in the British media.

This was during the Second World War when Winston Churchill was Prime Minister.

As the war was coming to a close he is recorded as saying that Britain would never give up its Indian Empire. His recoded comments include, “I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion.” Just as shocking were his earlier comments about Mahatma Gandhi. “It is alarming and nauseating to see Mr Gandhi, a seditious Middle Temple lawyer, now posing as a fakir of a type well known in the east, striding half naked up the steps of the vice regal palace, while he is still organizing and conducting a campaign of civil disobedience, to parlay on equal terms with the representative of the EmperorKing.” Churchill did not and could not anticipate that Ballia would ignite the fire which five years later would engulf and destroy colonial rule both in India and beyond.

Ironically, the statues of both Gandhi and Churchill today stand close to each other in a prestigious location opposite the British parliament in London.

Post-mortem The right to freedom of Nagas What is Lokayukta?

And why it is needed in Nagaland? I

L

okayukta is derived from Sanskrit word which means “appointed by the people”. It is ant-corruption ombudsman organization in the Indian states and the origin of Lokayukta can be trace back to the ombudsman in Scandinavian countries. Lokayukta can be defined in simple terms as an Anti-Corruption Act or it can also considered as a watchdog to pinpoint the wrong doing of the administration, to look into the complaints of the people and to suggest measures to imrove the effectiveness and efficiency of the Government.

Lokayukta is considered to be one of the most powerful institutes in the country and Lokayukta is a person who is appointed by the Governor, he must be a retired judge of the Supreme Court of India or a retired Chief Justice of a High Court and an independent person not holding any office of profit. The establishment of the institution of Lokayukta in the state is to provide clean, transparent, and accountable Government of the people.

The Lokayukta Bill was by the Parliament to fight against corruption. A recipient of First Prize National Award and a social activist Kezhokhoto Savi who has been firmly fighting for the establishment of Lokayukta in Nagaland said that the main objective of Lokayukta is to curb the menace of corruption providing within the State.

When any individual makes a complaint against the public servant relating to corruption, mal-administration, favoritism, nepotism, etc, the Lokayukta looks into such matters and investigates and if they find out that the allegations are true, the public servant is punished. Public servant includes the Chief Minister, Cabinet Ministers, the M.L.A, the Vice-Chancellor of Universities, Bureaucrats, Secretaries and the higher-ups of the Government department.

Lokayukta is a great check on corruption, bring about transparency in the system, to make state administrative machinery citizen friendly.

LOKAYUKTA is needed to check corruption and to curb the menace of corruption and it is urgently needed in Nagaland. And what is CORRUPTION? Corruption means misuse of entrusted power for private gain. Corruption is a form of dishonest or unethical conduct by a person entrusted with a position of authority and very often to acquire personal benefit. Corruption is internationally recognized as a major problem which is capable of threatening the social, Economic, and Political development of a country. As corruption in public life is gross violation of human rights, it is anti-people. The Supreme Court also remarked that corruption is like disease called cancer and if not detected in time it grows bigger and bigger and it will malignise the polity of the country leading to disastrous consequence.

In the context of Nagaland some of the corrupt practices prevailing in the state are as follows:i) abuse of power – using position or status to discriminate somebody or gain something from that person. Some officer avails or uses the services of government employees for their own personal work and benefit such as engaged them i.e the Grade-IV or Constable in their own private works even to the extent of taking care of their aged parents, etc. Engage a recruited batch in cutting fire woods in a jungle bought by an officer for his own personal use or business. Some government employees were denied of their dignity of labor.

Government employees support candidate financially and also took active participation in election campaign during the State General Assembly Election. Practices other than ‘One Man One Vote’, commitment or promises of candidates to voters, distributing money, proxy voting, unfair means, booth capturing, providing travel conveyance, supply food or drink or other materials, etc. ii) nepotism – giving jobs to relatives and family members.

Appointment in government offices without any advertisement in the press and no selection process is followed. The concerned government approval authority approves candidatures of their own children and relatives, and the appointing authority appointing own sons and daughters and relatives.

Huge appointment without having post or sanctioned of posts. Bogus appointments. A person is having appointment in more than one department.

Some government employees regularly draws monthly salary without attending office/duty.

Appointment of minor and over-age candidates. Fictitious and ghost employees. Politician randomly recommended for appointment. Proxy teachers in government schools. iii) favoritism – giving unfair opportunity to friends.

Awarded contract works or supplies in table tender to own choice of people. The influential section of people taking away the shares of the genuine candidates such as relief, grant, subsidy, etc and also materials meant for farmers/cultivator, villagers, widow, BPL, children, old people or senior citizen, persons with disability, including power-tiller meant for cultivators, etc. iv) extortion – obtained by force, threats or unfair means.

Deduction of public funds in the name of commission such as several cuts including minister commission & party fund and several others including underground, etc. Deduction of certain percentage from government employee monthly salary by several groups and some DDOs commits breach of trust, diversion of public funds, illegal collection of cash at the check-gates maintained

by Nagaland Police & others

t is obvious that the Nagas as independent nation is beyond deniable by the entire world as well as by God the creator of this earth. Indeed the ancient ancestors had been living a free life in all aspects without disturbances from any outside world for millions of years. However owing to the illegal entry of British during the middle part of 19th century has made a disastrous impact that has led to division of Naga inhabited area without prior consultation or permission from the Nagas.

As a matter of fact the treaty of Yandaboo which was signed between Burmese and British in 1862 was the beginning of the division of Naga territory as a result of that treaty the Nagas had lost thousands of miles of their own land which has been gifted to Burma without the knowledge of the Nagas. Besides, the forceful entry of British and their subjects into Naga soil in 1832 was the beginning of heavy bloody war that had lasted for half a century from 1832-1880 during that war, thousands of Naga warriors and British had lost their precious lives. However, they could occupy only some south western part of Naga territory. Despite their illegal occupation, the Nagas had never surrendered their status of free nation and their sovereignty. On the other hand as a free nation the Nagas did not make any treaty nor surrendered their rights at any cost. The main objective of the British settlement in Naga country was to make a defence of their subjects and for their trade and commerce and travelling convenience, this fact is justified by the introduction of inner line permit on Naga Hills that no non-Naga was to be allowed to enter into Naga country without that permit which is more or less equivalent to the visa that is required for other national to enter into another country. As such despite the illegal settlement of the British in Naga soil they had regarded the Naga country as a nation which is not a part of British India administrative jurisdiction. On the other hand despite the lack of modern education and backwardness of the Nagas, the Nagas had a strong sense of longing for self determination since ancient period. This had resulted in formation of Naga Club during October 1918. After the formation of that Naga Club led by T. Aliba Imti as its first president, they began to work for the right to sovereignty of Nagas owing to their selfless sacrifice for the cause of Naga national freedom. The government of British India had recognized the uniqueness of Nagas and their right to self determination therefore the British parliament had passed an act in 1919 which is known as the government of British India Act 1919.

Whereas according to this act, the Naga Hills territory was declared as ‘backward

tract’ that no decision of federal and legislative assembly shall be applied in Naga Hills country. Moreover the Naga Club had submitted a memorandum to the British statutory commission which is popularly known as the Simon Commission, during their visit to Kohima on 10 January 1929, stating that the Naga country should not be included on the new reformed scheme and expressed the national longing for self determination and sovereign state. On the basis of that memorandum the Simon Commission had recommended to the British parliament that the Naga Hills country should be regarded as “excluded area” from the British administrative jurisdiction moreover it has passed and declared under the government of British India Act 1935 that no act passed by the federal assembly of Assam legislature was to be applied in Naga territory and declared that the Naga Hills country as separate entity of British imperial administrative area. Whereas the governor was given whole authority to administer on his own discretion. As such the Naga country was declared as neither under outside power nor under direct colonial power of British empire.

On the basis of that uniqueness of Naga political status the Indian government did not consider the Nagas as part of India therefore no Naga representative was included nor held the Indian constituent assembly election was held in Naga territory during their election held in January 1946.

As such the pre-independence attitude of Indian leaders towards Nagas was crystal clear that Nagas are/were never a part of India that is why the 9 point agreement was made between the GoI and NNC the apex body of Naga country affair on 29 June 1946. Which is more or less similar to the treaty made between two respective nations. Besides both the party has agreed to live together for the interim period of 10 years, it was also agreed that India would act as a guardian nation over Nagas for the aforesaid period thereafter upon the completion of that 10 years the Nagas would decide their own political future on their own will.

On the basis of all these vivid evidences the Nagas had declared their independence on their own decision on 14 August 1947. Therefore the GoI must honestly acknowledge the Naga political rights and try to create an atmosphere of friendliness and a good neighbourhood.

So that both the country shall continue to co-exist and honour each other as good neighbouring nations over the face of this earth. Kuknalim.

Reader’s Post

Ten freedom fighters from NE honoured but one omitted Sir,

It is heartening to know that ten freedom fighters from Northeast India had been honoured for their valiant fight against the British. However, there should have been inclusion of one more, in the person of late Mhonyimo Lotha of Pangti village, Wokha district. It is to be noted and is well recorded in history that he was the first man who dared to kill a British officer, Captain J. P. Butler. Mhonyimo Lotha was truly a freedom fighter from among the Nagas because he stood in defence of his village and did not tolerate the invasion of the British. He killed Butler whose dead body was carried down to Golaghat and buried near Doss & Co. While selecting the list of people for being honoured as freedom fighters, the persons who had made the list should have made thorough research. In this regard those people who had erroneously omitted the name of Mhyonimo Lotha must at least have the courtesy to apologize in print. This kind of omission knowingly or unknowingly is also a crime in the eye of God and mankind. History cannot be distorted nor can it be erased.

“The combined outgo for the Centre on account of arrears for January to July and payments for August will total Rs 34,600 crore,” Ind-Ra said in a statement.

To fill the ranks in middle management that have been thinned out by retirements, banks should look for talent with expertise in project evaluation, risk management and IT, including cybersecurity, he said.

The RBI governor opined that public sector undertaking employees at the lower levels were overpaid, while those at the top level were underpaid.

“One of the problems, of course, is that as with all public sector entities, you overpay at the bottom and underpay at the top… Yes, you feel that you are doing the job for the broader public, but you just make it harder to attract top talent, especially a lateral entry,” he said, adding in a lighter vein: “I also feel underpaid.”

He also said the central bank and the government should, over the medium term, reduce the differences in regulatory treatment between public sector banks and private sector banks — more generally between banks and other financial institutions, to encourage competition among them. With several new niche banks set to begin operations over the next six to seven months, Mr. Rajan said the current times are interesting, profitable, and challenging for the financial sector.

“Interesting because the level of competition is going to increase manifold, both for customers as well as for talent, transforming even the sleepiest areas in financial services; profitable because new technologies, information, and new techniques will open up vastly new business opportunities and customers,” he said.

Mumbai, Aug 17 (Agencies): Outgoing Reserve Bank of India (RBI) governor Raghuram Rajan has stressed the need to improve governance at public sector banks and said the task of appointing top executives and non-official directors in these entities should be left to the Bank Board Bureau (BBB).

At present, the Centre appoints the chief executive, executive directors and other board members, reported The Hindu.

Mr. Rajan’s suggestion is in line with the proposals of the P.J. Nayak committee set up by the RBI to look into the issue of governance in Indian banks. “A parallel task for public sector banks was to improve the governance and management,” Mr. Rajan said in his speech at the FICCI-IBA banking seminar.

He said as the BBB was gaining experience in the appointment process, the final decision on appointment of executives and of non-official directors on bank boards should be left to it.

The Centre set up the BBB in February this year under the chairmanship of former Comptroller and Auditor General of India Vinod Rai. At present, BBB is involved in the short-listing and selection process of public sector bank executives. The final appointments are made by the government.

Mr. Rajan also highlighted another challenge that the public sector banks are

“Globally, the number of internet users is expected to touch 4,170 million by 2020.

The growth of the internet has successfully created a strong ecosystem for new businesses to tap into growing markets and create solutions to address their demands,” said the report released by IT industry apex body Nasscom and content delivery network service Akamai Technologies here.

India’s internet user base is the second largest after China, added the report titled “The Future of Internet in India.”

“India’s internet consumption has already exceeded the US to become No. 2 globally. Internet has become the greatest disruptor of our age by changing the way we work, interact socially and live life in general,” said R Chandrashekhar, Nasscom President.

The report said that 70 per cent of e-commerce transactions would occur via mobile phones. “Seventy five per cent of new internet users will consume data in local languages and India will remain the fastest growing internet market,” it added.

By 2020, the internet is expected to penetrate deeper in the hinterlands of the country, helping to create more opportunities for everyone, Chandrashekhar added.

“The rapid growth of the internet and its expansion into verticals including e-Commerce, travel and hospitality, public sector, financial technology and media is a clear indication of the state of things to come,” Chandrashekhar noted.

Pakistan military unlikely to North Korean diplomat defects to South Republican Donald Trump stage a coup now: US experts shaking up campaign endorsing House Speaker Paul Ryan, who was involved in a primary in his home state of Wisconsin.

In tapping Bannon for a top campaign role, Trump is doubling down on his outsider appeal rather than appeasing more traditional Republicans.

The conservative Breitbart figure has been a cheerleader for Trump’s campaign for months and was critical of Republican leaders, including Ryan.

Bannon is a former Goldman Sachs banker but does not bring presidential campaign experience to Trump’s White House bid.

Conway joined Trump’s campaign earlier this year as a senior adviser. A longtime Republican strategist and pollster, she has close ties to Trump’s running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence.

But he also displayed the particular brand of public devotion to his government shown by North Korean diplomats. In 2014, for instance, he scolded British journalists during a speech at a London bookstore for allegedly exaggerating the security level at a major event in Pyongyang, comparing such checks to the ones reporters might face if attending an event at Buckingham Palace.

While ruling out the possibility of a military takeover, Raphel warned that the “military may move in if there is a major public disorder in the country”.

The chances of a takeover, however, were remote, she added. “Like the military, the public too has changed and may resist any abrupt move.”

Teterboro (US), Aug 17 (AP): Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who has slipped in the polls in recent weeks, has shaken up his campaign again.

The billionaire real estate mogul is bringing in Stephen Bannon of Breitbart News as chief executive officer and promoting pollster Kellyanne Conway to campaign manager. “I’ve known both of them for a long time.

They’re terrific people, they’re winners, they’re champs, and we need to win it,” Trump told The Associated Press in a phone interview early today.

The move comes just 82 days before the November election and represents yet another overhaul of Trump’s tumultuous quest for the White House.

Washington, Aug 17 (PTI): Pakistan’s powerful military is not prepared to bring down the civilian government but would maintain its ‘dominating influence’, prominent US scholars have said amid efforts to find a successor to army chief General Raheel Sharif.

The chances of a sudden change of government in Pakistan are remote as the military is not prepared to bring down the civilian setup, according to Ambassador Robin Raphel.

The former US assistant secretary of state for South Asia was among half a dozen American scholars who analysed the current political situation in Pakistan at a recent seminar in Washington, Dawn newspaper reported today.

LONDON, AUG 17 (Agencies): The second in command of North Korea’s embassy in London defected to South Korea with his family, officials in Seoul said on Wednesday, making him one of the most senior officials to seek asylum there from Pyongyang’s diplomatic corps.

Defections of senior North Korea officials are relatively rare, and the flight of Thae Yong Ho to South Korea marked an embarrassing blow to the authoritarian government of Kim Jong Un. Thae’s arrival in the south was announced by South Korea’s Unification Ministry, which said he had fled there out of disgust with the Kim government.

“We know that Deputy Ambassador Thae is saying that his distaste for the Kim Jong Un regime and yearning for the Republic of Korea’s free democratic system and the future of his child are motives for the defection,” unification ministry spokes-

ollywood ‘bhaijaan’ Salman Khan has gone on to prove once again that he has a golden heart. The actor on Wednesday, announced that he will be presenting the Indian Olympic athletes with cheques of Rs 1,01,000, as a ‘gesture of appreciation’ for their efforts at the games. Salman, who is India’s goodwill ambassador for the Rio Olympics, went on to say that the government is very supportive of sports and that we should also do our part to encourage sports in the nation.

Early this week, Yash Raj Films, which produced the sports themed blockbuster ‘Sultan’, announced that they would give Rs 10 lakh cash award to the Indian athletes who win gold for the country at Rio Olympic games. The film which had Salman and Anushka Sharma in leading roles, was based on life of the Olympic medal winner Sultan Ali Khan. However, India’s large contingent of 118 athletes is still hoping to win a medal at the games.

Sri Lankan cricketers celebrate their 3-0 test series win over Australia at the end of the third cricket test match in Colombo, Sri Lanka on Wednesday. (AP/PTI)

It was the third time in a row that the Australians had lost all of their Tests in away series against teams from the sub-continent.

Openers David Warner a n d S h a u n M a r s h g ave Australia some hope of a consolation win with a brisk start in the morning session but once their partnership was broken, the visitors suffered a rapid collapse.

Off-spinner Dilruwan Perera struck just before lunch to send Marsh, who scored a

century in the century in the first innings in Colombo, back to the pavilion on 23.

Herath soon took over from his fellow spinner to dismiss Australian skipper Steve Smith and senior batsman Adam Vogues in the same over.

Warner, who had batted well for his 68 with six fours and a six, was Perera’s second big strike.

Herath, who had claimed six wickets in the first innings, then ran through the Australian

middle and lower order as the visitors’ batsmen had no answer to his left-arm spin.

The 38-year-old took the final wicket of Nathan Lyon to trigger wild celebrations in the Sri Lankan camp.

Earlier Sri Lanka, who resumed on 312 for eight, declared their second innings on 347 for eight with overnight batsman Dhananjaya de Silva unbeaten on 65.

Playing in just his third Test, de Silva smashed 10 boundaries during his 74-ball knock, after scoring a century in the first innings.

Kaushal Silva’s gritty 115 played a big part in Sri Lanka registering their first series sweep against a major side since gaining Test status in 1981.

Defiant centuries from Dinesh Chandimal and Dhananjaya de Silva ensured that the hosts get a decent first innings score of 355.

Australian pace spearhead Mitchell Starc remained the standout performer for the visitors with his 24 wickets in the series including three fivewicket hauls.

Sri Lanka had only ever beaten Australia once before in a Test match but they won the first two contests of the series comfortably in Pallekele and Galle before wrapping up proceedings in the capital.

The teams now head into the limited-overs phase of the tour with the first of the five one-day Internationals scheduled for August 21.

Tributes flow for former ISL: FC Goa sign Indian trio FIFA head Joao Havelange

Joao Havelange

Rio de Janeiro, Aug 17 (IANS): Tributes have poured in for world football governing body FIFA’s former president Joao Havelange, who has died aged 100.

The Samaritano Hospital here on Tuesday confirmed that Havelange died of complications resulting from a lung infection, reports Xinhua.

A former Olympic swimmer, Havelange headed FIFA from 1974 to 1998. He also served as an International Olympic Committee (IOC) member from 1963 to 2011.

Under his leadership FIFA grew from a small organisation with a handful of employees to a multibillion-dollar sporting and global brand.

His career was tainted by allegations of corruption, including claims he received kickbacks from FIFA marketing contracts. Brazil’s interim president Michel Temer said

in a statement on Tuesday that sport had lost one of its “most expressive leaders”.

“Joao Havelange dedicated himself wholehear tedly to the development of spor t, principally football,” Temer said. “I extend my solidarity to his family and friends at this difficult time.”

Ricardo Teixeira, the former president of the Brazilian football confederation, said: “He was the great creator of football as we know it today, from a financial and technical standpoint.”

According to Carlos Nuzman, the president of the Brazilian Olympic Committee, Havelange was the most influential official football has known.

“Havelange was one of the biggest figures in world spor t and number one in football. When he started at FIFA, football wasn’t like it is now. He transformed the game into the most popular sport in the world.”

U n d e r h i s F I FA presidency, the World Cup expanded from 16 to 32 teams.

He was credited for ushering in the era of major sponsorship deals and television broadcasting rights that turned football into a multibilliondollar global industry.

India become No.1 Test side, need to win fourth Test to retain spot Dubai, Aug 17 (IANS): India have secured the No.1 position in the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) Test rankings replacing Australia.

Australia lost the third Test against hosts Sri Lanka in Colombo by 163 runs to be whitewashed 0-3 in their series, allowing India to climb to the position, an ICC release said on Wednesday.

India are on top with 112 points, just above Pakistan (111). Australia had arrived in Sri Lanka as the top Test team with 118 points to play the three-match Test series. But following losses by 106 runs in Pallekele, 229 runs in Galle and

163 runs in Colombo, Australia joined England on 108 points but are ranked third, just ahead of Alastair Cook’s side, while Sri Lanka have moved up to sixth spot with 95 points.

Sri Lanka entered the series in the seventh position on 85 points, but climbed to sixth position after earning 10 points.

They now lead South Africa by three points, who have a series against New Zealand starting in Durban on Friday.

To retain the top ranking, India will now have to win the fourth and final Test of the fourmatch series against the West Indies, which begins in Port of Spain, Trinidad, on Thursday.

India registered a 237-run win in the third Test and took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the four-match series, after winning the first Test by an innings and 92 runs, the second ending in a draw.

India’s failure to win the fourth and final Test will mean Pakistan will become the number one ranked side for the first time.

If India win the fourth Test, then they will finish on 112 points -- one ahead of Pakistan -- but they will end on 110 points if the Test is drawn or drop to the fourth place, on 108 points, in case the West Indies win the fourth Test.

The trio have risen sharply through the ranks in the past two seasons and are seen as vital components of the team.

All three players featured heavily last season with Kattimani being head coach Zico’s preferred choice as his custodian. “I’m very pleased that Zico has trusted me with the responsibilities in goal again. The set-up last year was great and that was one of the prime reasons for me re-signing with the club. And one doesn’t get to experience the atmosphere of Fatorda anywhere else in the country so that was a definite plus,” Kattimani said in a release.

Wrestlers Vinesh injured, Sakshi disappoints Rio de Janeiro, Aug 17 (IANS): Women wrestlers Sakshi Malik and Vinesh Phogat lost their respective quarter-final bouts in contrasting fashion to dent India’s medal chances in the category at the Rio Olympics here on Wednesday.

While Sakshi lost 2-9 to Russia’s Valeria Koblova in 58kg Freestyle category, it was heartbreak for Vinesh, who was forced to concede her 48kg bout against China’s Yanan Sun 1-2 after a freak knee injury. Sakshi, who trailed 0-1 after the first period, made a comeback in the initial minutes of the second period to go 2-1 up at the Carioca Arena. She, however, failed to maintain the lead as the Russian overpowered her with some incredible moves to take an unassailable 9-2 lead in the dying minutes. Sakshi is still in contention for bronze via Repechage if Valeria makes it to the final. Earlier, Sakshi defeated Moldova’s Mariana Esanu Cherdivara on a four point take down criteria to enter the 1/4 final round.

Meanwhile, in the 48kg category, Vinesh’s surge was cut short after her Chinese opponent hit back with a single-leg takedown hurting the Indian in the process.

The 21-year-old Haryana grappler was leading 1-0 before hurting her knee as the Chinese gained two points to be declared victorious by injury at the Carioca Arena.

Sindhu lone medal hope after Srikanth crashes out

Rio de Janeiro, Aug 17 (PTI): P V Sindhu remains India’s lone medal hope in the badminton event after Kidambi Srikanth suffered a fighting loss against two-time defending champion Lin Dan in the men’s singles quarterfinals at the Rio Olympics here today.

Sindhu scripted a stellar 22-20, 21-19 win against former world number one and London Games silver medallist Wang Yihan to enter the women’s semifinals. A win against Japan’s Nozomo Okuhara in the semifinal tomorrow will assure Sindhu of a historic medal.

However, India’s campaign in the men’s singles ended today after Srikanth, who had beaten the five-time World Champion Lin Dan in the 2014 China Open final, suffered a 6-21 21-11 18-21 loss against the World No. 3 in a nerve-wrecking quarterfinal.

Lin Dan will now take on his long-time rival and twotime Olympic silver medallist Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia in a mouth-watering semifinal clash. The top seed beat sixth seed Chou Tien Chen of Chinese Taipei 21-9 21-15.

Srikanth thus remained the second Indian male shuttler to reach the quarterfinals after Parupalli Kashyap achieved the feat at the London Games.

Srikanth struggled with his net play early on to allow Lin Dan lead 4-1 in the first game. The left-handed Chinese continued to dominate with his controlled stroke play as he engaged in long rallies with the Indian to lead 10-1 after winning a video referral.

With Srikanth once again hitting long, Lin Dan entered the interval at 11-1.

After the break, Srikanth tried to get a hold on his nerves and played long rally but always ended up hitting a wayward shot as Lin Dan continued to surge ahead. In the end, it was two unforced errors that gifted the game to the Chinese.

There was a visible change in Srikanth’s demeanour in the second game as he raced to a 6-3 lead. His

strokes got better as he caught the celebrated Chinese off guard a few times with his angled returns and held a six-point advantage at the interval.

Srikanth tried to engage Lin Dan in long rallies with some deep corner returns and then came up with some sublime winners to lead 15-8. The Indian missed a video referral to allow Lin Dan a point but his forehand smash found Lin Dan napping next. The Chinese again hit long as Srikanth led 17-9.

A cross court backhand return earned Srikanth another point and with the Chinese going long again, meant he had a 10-game point advantage. One smash went wide but Srikanth roared back into the contest with a superb return at the forecourt.

Germany, who won three consecutive Olympic bronzes between 2000 and 2008, defeated Canada 2-0 in the second semi-final.

Melanie Behringer’s 20th minute penalty and Sara Daebritz’s goal on the hour mark ensured a comfortable victory for the German women.

Jitu Rai

New Delhi, Aug 17 (PTI): Woman gymnast Dipa Karmakar, who created history by entering the vault final at the Rio Olympics before finishing fourth, and ace shooter Jitu Rai were Wednesday recommended for the prestigious Rajiv Khel Ratna Award by the selection panel appointed by the Sports Ministry.

Dipa got the nod of the 12-member committee, which met here today, on the basis of her stupendous performance in Rio although the deadline for sending in the recommendation to the Sports Ministry was already over.

The 23-year-old Tripuraborn gymnast became an overnight sensation after she finished fourth in the women’s vault final on August 14, missing the bronze by a mere 0.150 points. She had won bronze medal in the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

Jitu, on the other hand, was ranked third in the world in the men’s 10m air pistol. He was one of two Indian shooters to make the final of their respective events in Rio, the other being Abhinav Bindra.

The 28-year-old Rai entered the final of the men’s 10m air pistol before ending up eighth but could not advance to the same stage in the 50m pistol, his pet event, in the Rio Games.

This year, Rai has won the silver medal in the 10m air

pistol event at the ISSF World Cup in Baku, Azerbaijan and the gold medal at the ISSF World Cup in Bangkok in 50m pistol. He was the first shooter to qualify for Rio Games after winning a silver medal at the World Championships in Spain in 2014. Any sportsperson who wins a medal in their sport in the remaining days of the ongoing Rio Olympics will be included among those recommended for Khel Ratna, according to sources.

An Olympic medal has also been treated at par with medals in the World Championships. Indian Test cricket captain Virat Kohli’s name was also discussed but the likes of Dipa and Jitu were preferred since this is an Olympic year, the sources said.

Kohli also missed out because the government wants to keep a few slots open in case the likes of shuttler P V Sindhu, who has reached the semifinals in the Rio Games, wins a medal. Rajiv Khel Ratna is given to the sportsperson who has produced spectacular and outstanding performance in the last four years and it carries a cash amount of Rs 7.5 lakh. The Khel Ratna winner (s) will receive the award from President Pranab Mukherjee on National Sports Day on August 29.

Woman tennis star Sania Mirza is the last recipient of the award in 2015.
