request that remained. “Today we may not put the rate in the Constitutional amendment bill but we will have to put it in the central bill,” said P. Chidambaram, former Finance Minister and the main speaker for the Congress during the debate.

“The empowered committee is the one which arrived at a 15.5% revenue neutral rate and came to the conclusion that 18% should be the appropriate GST rate. The Congress did not suggest the 18% rate -18% came out of your report,” he said in the Rajya Sabha.

His reference was to the committee currently chaired

by West Bengal Finance Minister Amit Mitra.

“If we charge 24-26%, it will defeat the very purpose of GST. Services represent 57% of India’s GDP. It will be hugely inflationary. It’ll lead to evasion,” he said. “Take the case of soft drinks, whether a rich man buys it or poor man buys it, the tax is the same.”

Jaitley said since the rate is scheduled to be decided by the GST Council, which will have the representation of all states and the central government, this matter should be left to it. “We must trust the responsibility of states towards the people,” he said.

Even though the idea of a pan-India GST was first mooted in 2003, it was seven years later that a formal bill was first introduced. But this lapsed when the UPA was voted out and Prime Minister Narendra Modi government took over.

NSF rally to demand repeal of AFSPA Correspondent

sultative meeting was held on July 25. At that meeting, it was decided to come up with an action plan comprising of NSF, NPMHR, Naga Hoho and NMA. The meeting also endorsed Angami Students’ Union (ASU) to meet the lawyer of AR and resolve the issue.

Since 1958, Kithan said Nagas have been facing untold suffering under AFSPA. He said the security forces who were supposed to be protecting the citizens were not sparing even the innocent students, adding that now student leaders have been targeted.

According to NSF president, on August 11 the rally would be simultaneously held in all the headquarters of its federating units and sub-ordinate bodies in collaboration with the tribal Hohos and mother associations. Kithan said a memorandum would be submitted to the chief minister after the rally.

Naga Hoho general secretary Mutsikhoyo Yhobu said NH extended its full support to the NSF and the ongoing agitation and the proposed rally. He said the AR show cause notice demanding unconditional apology was an insult to the Nagas.

Questioning how long will the government of India continue to impose such draconian law in Naga areas, Yhobu said “when a peace talk has been on, another draconian law has been implemented at the same time, what kind of peace dialogue is this, we don’t understand”. Also, extending solidarity to NSF, the Naga Mothers

Association (NMA) advisor, Rosemary Dzuvichu, said the Assam Rifles forgot that when an inquiry commission was set up and inquiry was still on, no legal notice should be served to anyone. She said the legal notice was highly objectionable.

Dzuvichu said the NMA and Pochury Mothers Association (PMA) in September 2015 filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court concerning July 16, 2015 Wuzu firing incident.

She said SC had then directed Gauhati High Court Kohima bench to dispose the case on time. However, Dzuvichu said the issue remained with the inquiry commission, which was yet to submit its report. “We are really unhappy with the inquiry commission”, she said and questioned the state government for constituting “only one man inquiry commission” and the reason for the delay.

Dzuvichu said NMA would reach out the Eastern Women organizations and the mothers association in Manipur as well. When asked about a joint effort in demanding repeal of AFSPA with the other states where AFSPA has been imposed, NPMHR Kenneth Mao said Nagas have soft corner for those states where AFSPA has been imposed. He said NPMHR would convey to its counterpart in Manpiur, Arunanchal Pradesh or Jammu and Kashmir to work together.

Meanwhile, NSF has convened a consultative meeting with Naga Hoho, NPMHR and NMA on August 5 at 11a.m. at Hotel Japfu.

N ew D elhi , Au g 3 (IANS): India moved a major step closer towards a unified goods and services tax regime across the country, with the Rajya Sabha passing the relevant Constitution amendment bill on Wednesday, in what is seen as the most radical indirect tax reform since independence.

Hailed as the biggest tax reform since independence, the one-nation-one-tax regime will convert 29 states into a single market.

The GST will be implemented from April 1, 2017. It is expected to add 2 percentage points to India’s GDP, according to economists.

The Constitution (One Hundred and Twenty-Second Amendment) Bill, 2014 and amendments were first declared approved by a voice vote. Following a division called by Deputy Chairperson P.J. Kurien and electronic voting, it was declared approved by a two-thirds majority.

While the AIADMK had walked out earlier, 203 members present voted in favour of the main bill. The bill will now go again to the Lok Sabha for its nod since the government had moved some amendments to get political parties, notably the Congress, on board.

The passage on Wednesday was preceded by some heated debate, with the opposition demanding that subsequent bills on the subject be brought as financial bills, as opposed to money bills, so that the upper house gets a chance

to debate and vote on them.

The government only assured that it will follow the spirit of the Constitution in this regard. The new regime -the idea for which was mooted some 13 years ago -- seeks to subsume all central indirect levies like excise duty, countervailing duty and service tax, as also state taxes such as value added tax, entry tax and luxury tax, to create a single, pan-India market. Some items, notably potable alcohol and petroleum products, will be outside its purview for now.

“This is one of the most significant tax reforms in India’s history. It was, therefore, important for building a political consensus to the extent possible,” Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said, as he initiated the debate on the bill.

“The enactment of the GST Bill will bring about the best economic management of the country as it will empower the states and increase revenue of states and the central government. It will give a boost to the economy at this critical stage,” he added.

Following the passage by the Lok Sabha, at least 50 percent of the states will have to ratify it for it to become law.

This apart, while the Centre will have to take Parliament’s nod again for its version of the GST, states too will need to do the same, which may not be a quick process. To reach a compromise, the government had to concede to two main demands of the Congress -- scrap

DIMAPUR, AUG 3 (NPN): Nagaland Tribes Council (NTC) has appealed to the state government for extension of Bengal Eastern Regulation Act (BERA) of 1873 to cover the entire administrative jurisdiction of Nagaland, saying that partial enforcement negated the objectivity of the protective laws of the land.

In a memorandum addressed to the state chief minister, the NTC president Lendinoktang Ao and general secretary Nribemo Ngullie said when Statehood was given to Nagaland, special constitutional provisions were incorporated in Art 371(A) of the Constitution of India.

In addition, NTC said Nagaland was equipped with BERA 1873 also called Inner line Permit (ILP).

It said the purpose of providing those special provisions was to insulate Nagaland and its indigenous inhabitants from undue exploitations and possible suppression by outsiders.

Pointing out that ILP has been partially enforced in the state of Nagaland leaving Dimapur district uncovered, the NTC said de-reservation of Dimapur area has become the anti-thesis of the policy of reservation.

“In fact, Dimapur has become the buffer zone for the massive migration of illegal immigrants besides being the launching ground for their exploitive activities against the interest of the indig-

enous Nagas of Nagaland,” stated NTC. Further, the council asserted that immense concentration of lakhs of people in a tiny state like Nagaland from outside and particularly those of the illegal immigrants has posed serious threats to the economy, the faith, the culture and tradition, the politics and to the very existence of the indigenous people of Nagaland.

At this rate, NTC said the indigenous Nagas of Nagaland would become secondary citizens and servants to the floating population in all respect sooner than expected.

Unless the government woke up to the clarion call that there was no alternative to self-defence, NTC said it was going to be too late.

Also, the NTC reminded the state government that when the government of Assam intensified its NRC process and streamlining of its citizenship, Nagaland was “unarguably the soft target.” It explained that when the Assam flashes out the rejected population, the easiest and most convenient haven was Nagaland.

In the light of the above, the NTC has demanded the revocation of the dereservation of Dimapur area and place it on a par with the rest of other areas for uniform enforcement of ILP and all other protective provisions kept in the Constitution of India without delay.

N E W D E L H I , AU G 3 (NPN): Even after completing one year after signing of the ‘framework agreement’ between Government of India and NSCN (I-M) on August 3, 2015, the government continues to remain tight lipped on the contents.

However, in an exclusive interview with Nagaland Post in July last, Centre’s interlocutor for Naga talks, R.N. Ravi had categorically stated that during the series of consultations with various stake holders, he had made clear that the framework agreement was “not the final settlement”. He further said that the final agreement would be published as and when reachd.

The gover nment on Wednesday said in Parliament that the Naga peace talks are “in progress”. “Subsequent to the framework signed on August 3, 2015, details are being worked out. Consultations with all the stakeholders and the state governments involved will be held before reaching the final agreement,” union minister of state for Home Kiren Rijiju said in a written reply to Rajya Sabha.

In a separate reply, the minister responded with a “yes” when asked whether NSCN (K) is “behested” by neighbouring countries.

Rubber Board team meets LRD officials

DIMAPUR: A three-member team from the Rubber Board of India (RBI) met officials of Land Resources Department (LRD) Nagaland led by secretary LRD, Y. Kikheto Sema IAS, on Wednesday in Kohima during which the team clarified to queries pertaining to rubber plantation in the state.

During the meeting, joint commissioner, RBI, Rajan informed that the Board was working on sensitizing the rubber growers in reducing cost of labour component by tapping the latex once in a week or once in three days instead of alternate days.

According to Rajan, there wasn’t much difference in yield between alternate days tapping or once in a week. He pointed out that alternate days tapping involves huge labour cost which reduces the profit margin.

Rajan advised rubber growers to apply stimulants once or twice in a year for producing better quality rubber.

On the issue of low price of rubber in Nagaland, the RBI official stated that high transportation costs due to distance between the state and rubber consuming areas reduces the price.

Rajan also said that the RBI was in the process of identifying crops or plants for intercropping with rubber which would contribute to value addition for

rubber growers. Deputy commissioner of RBI, Dinesh, said that the Board was planning to start a branch of Rubber Board and Rubber Producers’ Society adjacent to Dimapur so that rubber could be collected from that point and any available schemes could also be availed from there.

He advised technical officials to arrange poly bag rubber stems in nurseries by placing not more than two poly bags in each row that would compromise healthy sprouting for the stems placed in between.

Dinesh also spoke on the need for grading of rubber quality and also emphasized the need for field office in every rubber growing district. However, he spoke of fund constraints with RBI and disclosed that a maintenance bill of Rs 2 crore was still pending in Dimapur office claimed by rubber growers but that the RBI has not be able to pay owing to shortage of budget provision.

He informed that rubber growers could seek suggestions or post any queries at kuthomas@rubberboard.org.in regarding rubber plantation.

Secretary, LRD, Y. Kikheto Sema IAS thanked the RBI officials for their visit while expressing surprise as to why such meeting could not be held for the last three years.

He opined that rubber plantation has been taken up on a large scale in the state,

The arrested person.

DIMAPUR: 3 Naga Hills (NH) Assam Rifles (AR) has informed it has apprehended the alleged “finance in-charge” of NSCN (K) who was reportedly involved in unabated tax collection in Kohima and Dimapur.

AR in a press release

by PRO-IGAR (N) Kohima, based on tipoff from local affected civilian regarding illegal tax collection by NSCN (K), troops of 3 (NH) AR conducted a search operation on July 31 and apprehended one S K Asumi, resident of Y Zimo

colony, Zunheboto, allegedly a ‘SS finance in-charge’ of NSCN (K), “prime accused of illegal tax collection from Kohima and Dimapur, operating in Signal Basti, Dimapur.”

AR claimed that documents of tax challans, tax receipts, tax collection register, cash memos, notification of NSCN (K) were recovered thereby establishing involvement of the accused as the finance in-charge of NSCN (K) for Kohima and Dimapur districts.

In this regard, AR said that the individual was handed over to Sub urban Police station, Dimapur, on Aug 1.

therefore, such coordination meeting should be held at regular intervals.

Quoting department figure, Kikheto said that there were 66 lakh standing rubber plants assisted by the department out of which 6 lakh trees were being tapped and could generate more than Rs 50 crore annually.

“Most rubber growers are stated to be jhum cultivators earlier and the farmers shifting to eco-friendly rubber plantation is encouraging since they now earn better and create employment opportunities especially in the rural areas,” he said.

Kikheto also said that an amount of more than Rs 500 crore could be generated annually once all the 66 lakh standing rubber plants start producing latex.

Highlighting that rubber plantation has not covered even 5 % of total cultivable area, Kikheto cautioned officers that rubber should not be planted in areas like paddy fields and other cultivable land for fruits and vegetables.

He also cautioned the district officers not to allow farmers to buy rubber stems from unauthorised nurseries which may have negative impact on the production.

Earlier, director LRD, Mhathung Yanthan highlighted on the rubber plantation in the state while a power point presentation on rubber plantation was presented by deputy director.

BJP Wka demands replacement of vice president DIMAPUR: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Wokha Unit has informed that it held an emergency meeting along with its frontal and Mandal office bearers of 37th, 39th and 40th Mandals on August 2 wherein the house “unanimously” resolved to demand “immediate” replacement of vice president, Nagaland State Unit BJP and in-charge of Wokha district, James Vizo, “for the greater interest of the party workers of Wokha district.”

In a press note, BJP Wokha Unit alleged that James Vizo “failed to adhere to the party constitution and acted blindly without proving the majority of the party workers in the district. The favouritism played by the Wokha in-charge and paving ways for some vested interest party workers of 38th Mandal is highly condemned for the unconstitutional and infringement of the party constitutional rights.”

BJP Wokha stated that the house unanimously resolved and re-affirmed the presidentship of James Patton who “was constitutionally elected on November 15, 2015 by the majority of the Mandals in the presences of the District Election Officer (DEO) as per the notification issued from the centre according to the party constitution.”

In this regard, BJP Wokha demanded from the state president, Nagaland Unit BJP to review and revoke the appointment order issued on July 25, 2016 and retain James Patton as the president of BJP Wokha Unit at the earliest in order to safeguard the party constitution.

Further, BJP Wokha also declared “null and void” the district executive meeting convened on July 21 by some party workers of 38th Mandal, Wokha unit BJP, as it was held without the knowledge of the Wokha district office bearers, frontals, and the three Mandal office bearers of the 37th, 39th & 40th constituencies.

Imtikumzuk Longkumer, deputy speaker, the guest of honour along with Mokokchung DC, Sushil Kumar Patel and Mokokchung SDC (C) Sachin Jaiswal participating in a folksong with the Impang Kosasanger Tatar.

DIMAPUR: As part of their training, probationers (P) of 2014 Batch Nagaland Civil Services (NCS) celebrated “Festivals of Nagaland with Tsungremmong” at Administrative Training Institute (ATI), Kohima on August 3.

Speaking on the occasion, deputy director ATI, Dr. Hovithal Sothu, stressed on the importance of preserving ‘our’ rich culture and traditions. He said that culture and traditions were important as they transmit shared values, stories, and goals from one generation to the next.

He stated that traditions encourage groups of people to create and share a collective identity, which in turn serves to shape individual identities.

Further, Sothu remarked that this (culture and traditions) birth right should be handed down to an informed and prepared generation and expressed hoped that the ‘Celebration of Festivals of Nagaland with Tsungremmong’ would go a long way in empowering Nagas with

the knowledge of ‘our’ rich cultures and traditions.

During the celebration, the probationers presented ‘Festivals of Nagaland’ in which Tokhu Emong (Lotha) was presented by Echungbemo Erui ; Sekrenyi (Angami and Chakhesang) by Nuhuta Tunyi ; Tulunyi (Sumi) by Aketo Chisho; Monyu (Phom)

A cultural tune was presented by the Lotha officers.

The probationers presented the theme song of 2014 Batch after which Er.N.Moa Longkumer gave the closing remarks.

The function was followed by display of culture by the Chungtia villagers of Kohima.“Top” game and “Tug of War” was played between the probationers and the Chungtia Village Cultural Troupe.

The program ended with a grand feast of Ao (Naga) delicacies prepared by the probationers of 2014 Batch.

Earlier, Bendang Longkumer NCS (P) chaired the programme.

CASU: Chumukedima Ao Students’ Union (CASU) celebrated ‘Tsungremmong’ festival on August 2 at Joyce Complex, Chumukedima.

Director, Higher education, I. Alempokba was the main speaker on this occasion and unveiled the CASU silver jubilee logo.

Speaking on the occasion, Alempokba said that “presently, the Naga society including the Ao society is going through a transitional period wherein our age old ideas and values are being replaced and refined with new ones”.

We cannot compare our-

selves with the advanced civilizations which are thousands of years old but we are only now starting to develop, said Alempokba.

He also mentioned that if “we the Ao’s count our civilization from ‘Longtrok’ we are not even 1000 years old, inspite of this we have advanced tremendously by inculcating the culture and customs of other advanced civilizations”.

He also informed the gathering on the advancement of technology which presents “us” with the opportunity to know and learn from all cultures and civilizations.

He said “we” are at a juncture from where “we can get started and go forward with a better vision and should now reflect on what is good and bad for our society and discard the customs and practices which hinder our growth and pick up whatever is for our good”.

He also said “we” may not be able to compete with others in physical development but can compete though attainment of knowledge and

learning.

He said “culture” includes the sum total of all activities, whether it is dresses and attire, food habits, education, wealth management, dance and songs and all other customs. He said that if all these could be improved then “our” would be called a society which moves forward.

Ao’s are known as pioneers of the Nagas and should therefore be pioneers in bringing about these changes and young people have a big part to play by changing present attitude and make use of the knowledge and technology available today, said Alempokba.

The programme was hosted by Soyim and Temsunaro and witnessed special presentations by the Ao students of Chumukedima, Patkai Christian College and Servanthood College.

AKHOYA: Akhoya also celebrated the Tsüngremmong festival with participants and invitees from her neighbouring villages on Tuesday with MLA S.Pangnyu as the chief guest.

While greeting the people on the occasion, S.Pangnyu urged the Naga youth and students to think what they could do for better Nagaland instead of asking Nagaland for all their needs.

“We have lost a couple of generations in our society who succumbed to the temptation of drugs in recent past. It’s a challenging time for upcoming younger generation to overcome this kind of social menace and try to rebuild the society,” said Pangnyu with deep regret.

He also encouraged the people to build and maintain better inter village relationship and cooperate with the government for development in the state. He also acknowledged the sacrifice and contributions of Akhoya village in particular and Aos as a whole in bringing Christianity and Education to Eastern parts of Nagaland.

This Tsüngremmong festival program was organized by the Akhoya Students’ Union in commemoration of its platinum jubilee this year.

The celebration was

marked by folk dance and songs, traditional sports and traditional Ao Naga nursery rhymes presented by Yaongyimsen Students’ Union, Unger Students’ Union, Akholongshi Club Akhoya, Kosalatsür, Govt. Middle School School students and cultural troupe from Akhoya Union Changtongya town, Dimapur and Mokokchung respectively.

IndiGo planes avert mid-air collision NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): A mid-air collision between two IndiGo planes, carrying over 225 passengers and crew, was averted over Dhaka airspace after a pilot of one of the flight steered away his aircraft to a safe distance when they came perilously close to each other prompting the civil aviation ministry to order a probe.

An IndiGo spokesperson said no one was injured but four passengers complained of giddiness and two cabin crew needed first aid, due to the air turbulence, which took place around the same time.

The incident happened yesterday, when Mumbai to Guwahati IndiGo plane (flight 6E-813) had to climb

higher by about 250-300 feet after experiencing turbulence due to monsoon activity over the sub-continent.

Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju, meanwhile tweeted that the incident would be probed by the aviation regulator (DGCA).

“Incident involving @ IndiGo6E planes at Guwahati will be probed, Raju said in his tweet.

At the same time, the other IndiGo plane to Chennai (flight 6E-136) was almost on the same path, following which, the two flights came close to mid-air collision situation but timely “technical intervention” helped the pilot of one of the aircraft to control

the situation and prevent the possible disaster, sources said.

After receiving an alert on Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS), flight commander of one of the flights took “evasive action” to steer away the aircraft to a safer distance, they said.

TCAS is onboard equipment that alerts pilots about the traffic in the proximity of the aircraft and also instructs them about the avoidance action (Resolution Advisory) to maintain desired separation between two aircraft.

Due to the monsoon activity, passengers along with the cabin crew onboard were physically shaken, the spokesperson said.

F E L I C I TAT I O N The Dapfhütsumia Students’ Union is pleased to extend its heartiest congratulations to Ms. Avonuo Kire D/o Dr. Neiphi Kire on her selection to the post of EAC through NPSC examination for NCS, NPS, NSS and ALLIED services.

Source said the incident happened when the planes were over the Dhaka (Bangladesh) airspace as all aircraft to and from Guwahati fly through this airspace.

Following the prescribed protocol, the pilot immediately applied the Resolution Advisory (RA) triggered by TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System), the spokesperson said.

Many many Happy returns of the day to our sweetest and best daughter in the world. As you grow 2 years old today we pray that the almighty God bless you with wisdom and Happy long life. Happy Birthday darling.

“The next festival scheduled for October is meant for the youth and students from across the country. But, the North East region will have maximum participation. We will be talking about the plight of students who stay away from their homes,” says Basu.

NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): A festival showcasing the varied music and dances of North Eastern India will be organised here beginning on Thursday seeking to promote the rich folk culture of the region.

Titled “Amazing NorthEast...Paradise Unexplored,” the festival organised by city based NGO, Life of Vision Foundation, will see over 22 artistes from the region performing the local songs and dances of the seven sisters.

“This is to give artistes from the region a platform to showcase their art and offer these dying art-forms more visibility.

“We want to promote them because they come from families where their art is their only profession. So, if we do not support them, they will not be able to pass it on to the next generation,” says Sumita Basu, founder of the NGO. The evening will begin with a musical performance by a choir from Manipur and Mizoran and will be taken forward by a group of Bihu dancers and drummers from Assam.

Basu says that the performers will be dressed in their traditional wear, giving the audience a glimpse of the life that they lead in the North East.

The show will also serve as a medium to draw the audience’s attention to the hardships faced by the people

A view of the Rajya Sabha in New Delhi on Wednesday. (PTI Photo / TV GRAB) NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): Rajya Sabha Wedday witnessed heated exchanges between Congress and SP members over recent instances of rape in Uttar Pradesh particularly the gangrape of a mother and daughter in Bulandshahr, with the government saying law and order was a state matter but the incidents were highly condemnable.

Raising the issue during Zero Hour, Rajni Patil (Cong) said the number of incidents of rape and other atrocities against women was on the rise and there was an urgent need for the House to take note and discuss the issue.

She mentioned the gangrape of a mother and her minor daughter when they were travelling from Noida to Kanpur.

As other Congress members joined in, Jaya Bhaduri Bachchan, a SP MP from UP, likened Congress raising the

issue with “crocodile tears” and “torture” and asked them not to do politics over the issue of atrocities and crime against women.

She said she had given notice for discussing the issue several days ago but the notice has not yet been accepted.

“I do not care which part of the country the incidents have taken place. I want to discuss. I do not want to politicise,” she said.

Ambika Soni (Cong) immediately shot back saying it was a minister of the SP government in Uttar Pradesh who was playing politics over the incident.

Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said the ghastly incident, whether in Uttar Pradesh or any other part of the country, needs to be condemned in strongest terms and strictest action taken against culprits. Maintaining that law

and order is a state subject, he said expressed hope that the UP government would act strongly in the case.

“We are ready for discussion on women’s security.

Please give notice, we will discuss it,” he said.

As the Congress members continued to raise the issue and SP members vociferously reacting back, Deputy Chairman P J Kurien said the matter raised was very, very serious and every member was seeking a discussion. “No problem. Please give notice,” he said. Tapan Kumar Sen (CPI-M) said a notice for short duration discussion on the issue was given a few days back and it is pending in Chairman’s office. Kurien said a discussion could be held on security of women and atrocities against them. “I assure it. There is no problem... Government has said it is ready for discussion,” he said asking members to resume their places.

2 drown, 20 missing as bridge collapses HC notice to Guj on PIL on disposal of cow carcass

MAHAD (MAHARASHTRA), AUG 3 (PTI): At least two persons drowned and 20 others are missing as two buses swept away in swollen Savitri River after a British-era bridge collapsed on the Mumbai-Goa Highway near Mahad in Maharashtra’s Raigad district on Tuesday night.

NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): Congress President Sonia Gandhi, who was taken ill during a roadshow in Varanasi and forced to return to the national capital, was today “stable” and has been shifted to Ganga Ram Hospital in west Delhi.

Gandhi was admitted to the Army’s Research and Referral Hospital here late last night due to high fever. The 69-year-old Congress chief returned here by a chartered flight close to midnight after she had to abandon the 8-km roadshow in Varanasi midway due to illness. Gandhi has been shifted to Gangaram Hospital as she had earlier also undergone treatment there, sources said. Earlier in the day, AICC media cell in-charge Randeep Surjewala had said that she is stable and is recovering under medical supervision.

NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): Asim Ahmed Khan, who was sacked from Delhi Cabinet over graft allegations, Wednesday claimed that his family was being targeted by AAP, days after he alleged that he was receiving “death threats” from Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and some of his partymen.

The Aam Aadmi Party, however, rejected the allegations, saying Khan had teamed up with BJP to attack it.

Khan claimed that on August 1, he had received a tip off from a “well-wisher from the AAP” that his father will be targeted by the party and a false complaint of molestation would be filed against him.

The lawmaker claimed that AAP was unhappy as he was raising “uncomfortable issues” in the party.

“On the same day, I brought this to the notice of the Jama Masjid Police Station.

large-scale violence that left dozens of persons including several security personnel injured. Unofficial reports put the number of injured at 70 but a police spokesman refused to comment on the matter.

The body of Ahmad, an ATM security guard, which bore a big perforation in the abdomen, was found outside SMHS hospital, a police official said.

He said initially it was not clear how the youth had been killed but an X-ray of the body showed presence of more than 300 pellets inside it.

The death of the youth led to protests in Bagiyas and adjoining areas early this morning, he said. Police has registered a case under section 302

lowing which they left,” the Matia Mahal MLA claimed.

He also demanded scanning of phone records of the three women, who he claimed had criminal record.

The former Delhi Food and Civil Supplies and Environment Minister was sacked

by Kejriwal last October for allegedly taking a bribe of Rs six lakh for allowing construction of a building in his constituency.

Khan said he will soon “spill the beans” about AAP. He also claimed that two days back some miscreants tried to snatch his guard’s gun outside his residence at 3.40 AM. “Two such incidents after I said there is a threat to my family’s life say a lot,” he added. Khan said he has been facing threats after he raised the issue of sacrilege of Koran in Malerkotla in Punjab. The Punjab Police had on July 24 arrested AAP’s Mehrauli MLA Naresh Yadav in connection with this case.

“This issue is very sensitive to us. We are demanding a probe into the matter by the party. What action is the party taking against its MLAs? At least probe the charges. Instead I and my family are facing threats,” Khan said.

“What I have been indicated is that the top AAP leadership, including Kejriwal ji, is behind the conspiracy to slap a false case against my father,” he alleged, adding, “Target me. Why are you targeting my father? Your fight is with me.”

AAP spokesperson Deepak Bajpai said Khan is left with no other work but to attack the Aam Aadmi Party.

SRINAGAR, AUG 3 (PTI): Dozens of persons including several security force personnel were injured in fresh clashes in Kashmir today even as the death toll in the ongoing unrest rose to 51 after a youth hit by pellets was found dead outside a hospital here.

Authorities also extended curfew to more areas of the Valley as a precautionary measure to maintain law and order but the orders were defied at many places including Chattabal area of the city -- the native place of Reyaz Ahmad, who was killed last night allegedly by security forces. Clashes between protesters and security forces were reported from many parts of the Valley with Kulgam district in south Kashmir witnessing

RPC (murder) against unknown security force personnel and started investigation into the case as there were no reports of any clashes last night in the area where the youth was found dead, the official said.

The authorities extended curfew to more areas of the Valley for maintaining law and order in view of violent protests yesterday that led to death of a youth in Lethpora area of Pulwama distict and injuries to several others.

Curfew remained in force in five police station areas of old city and was extended to Batamaloo, Shaheedgunj, Soura, Zadibal, Qamarwari and Bemina areas of the city as a precautionary measure, the official said.

He said curfew was also imposed in Khanpora area of Baramulla district, Awanitpora and Pampore in Pulwama district while Anantnag town in south Kashmir also continued to remain under curfew.

“There are restrictions on the assembly of four or more people under Section 144 CrPC in rest of Kashmir,” he added.

Normal life remained affected for the 26th consecutive day in the Valley due to the curbs imposed by the authorities and separatist sponsored strike against the killing of civilians in security forces’ action during clashes which erupted in the wake of killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani in an encounter on July 8.

M

ore than fifty years then, violence was unleashed in Nagaland when simply village cultivators were drawn to the Naga movement and then faced the brutal retaliation by several thousand armed police forces of various states including several army brigades. Various tribes in the then Naga Hills have suffered untold atrocities at the hands of several thousand police forces of other states and armed forces since the 50s. There is no village in Nagaland which has not been affected in one way or the other, by the brutalities and inhuman acts committed by the police and armed forces. Thousands of families have lost their sons, daughters, fathers and mothers and not to mention the despicable rapes and heinous acts to brutally subjugate a people who dared to defy.

All these happened during the 50s to 60s but sadly, the national media and the world outside remained silent. The Naga tragedy during the fifties till 70s did not end but took on a different path when hatred and violence turned inwards. This was clearly evident after 1980 by the spate of senseless killings, which exposed an insane and dangerous cult of elimination of “rivals/traitors” where hundreds of lives were snuffed out. The Naga political movement at its height during the fifties to the seventies, could have been in a different situation today and remains a matter of debate. Though the creation of Nagaland state came about under controversial circumstances, yet it helped sustain the Naga movement and kept the issue alive when over ground/ state politicians continued to raise it within the state and also as an important agenda to be resolved

by Delhi. In a way also, the movement has either been affected by or affected the state political parties which ran successive governments. Nagaland chief minister T.R.Zeliang, in his speech at the celebration of Tsungremmong festival in Mokokchung on August 2, had stated that Nagas cannot expect solution from Americans or British and have to accept reality, that it is only the government of India which can offer solution. Therefore, by extension of the fact, Zeiliang was implicit that Nagas would therefore, have no choice but to accept the solution offered. The solution expected to be offered would be shaped by the framework agreement signed by the collective leadership of the NSCN(I-M) with government of India’s Interlocutor to the Naga talks.

Solution to the Naga political problem has been long awaited since the time former prime minister Dr. Manmohan Singh assured Naga leaders that the UPA would wrap up negotiations during its tenure(2009-14). There is also another requirement for an “all-encompassing solution”, meaning that the desire of Nagas was that it should be inclusive.

The other factions have not been invited for formal talks as yet and probably do not also know the contents of the framework agreement. This was a point raised by leaders of other factions during consultative meetings. There could be two aspects of ‘peace’ –one between two parties-in this case the government of India and the NSCN(I-M), while the other aspect involves the two parties and the Naga people. The peace within Naga nationalist groups is crucial for achieving a broad-based agreement and this is desired in order to bring a peaceful resolution of the conflict and truly give peace a chance.

DailyDevotion The Compelling Purpose of God He…said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem…” —Luke 18:31 Jerusalem, in the life of our Lord, represents the place where He reached the culmination of His Father’s will. Jesus said, “I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me” (John 5:30). Seeking to do “the will of the Father” was the one dominating concern throughout our Lord’s life. And whatever He encountered along the way, whether joy or sorrow, success or failure, He was never deterred from that purpose. “…He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem…” (Luke 9:51).

The greatest thing for us to remember is that we go up to Jerusalem to fulfill God’s purpose, not our own. In the natural life our ambitions are our own, but in the Christian life we have no goals of our own. We talk so much today about our decisions for Christ, our determination to be Christians, and our decisions for this and that, but in the New Testament the only aspect that is brought out is the compelling purpose of God. “You did not choose Me, but I chose you…” (John 15:16).

We are not taken into a conscious agreement with God’s purpose— we are taken into God’s purpose with no awareness of it at all. We have no idea what God’s goal may be; as we continue, His purpose becomes even more and more vague. God’s aim appears to have missed the mark, because we are too nearsighted to see the target at which He is aiming. At the beginning of the Christian life, we have our own ideas as to what God’s purpose is. We say, “God means for me to go over there,” and, “God has called me to do this special work.” We do what we think is right, and yet the compelling purpose of God remains upon us. The work we do is of no account when compared with the compelling purpose of God. It is simply the scaffolding surrounding His work and His plan. “He took the twelve aside…” (Luke 18:31). God takes us aside all the time. We have not yet understood all there is to know of the compelling purpose of God.

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

A page from quit India movement 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.

In Ballia 200 years later

it is instructive to recall just 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 Emperor-King.” 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.

Agony of contemporary Naga polity

he contemporary Naga society has been satirically wrecked and tanked-up when we visualize its agonies and vices. In this midst of social, political and economic disorder, the Common persons are entangled with myriad disparities and injustices.

Corruptions, nepotism, fragmentations, crimes, jealousies and discriminations have become an inevitable paradox.

It just reminds us of the hollowness of bustle where freedom of speech is only a nightmare where actions are ruled by few egoistic individuals. It makes one to reason WHY? ‘Life is a journey enfolded with myriad thrills and complications which everyone has to endure’ but perceiving with present situations, it is unbearable which is beyond measures. Our society has become so distorted that one finds difficult to fathom andcomprehendwhich is deceiving and humiliating. The peaceful co-existence has been decimated by this retributive society.

Perceiving with the existing political system, the challenges of Democracy has become more or less turbulent at this juncture where the positivity of the good governance has been threatened and undermined. The pillars of democracy have been rooting out in our society due to some few self-centered individuals for their vested interest as elected representatives.Such individuals have decimated the posterity and effectiveness of pure form of Democracy. The innocent and ill-fated electorates are forced to endure a miserable life at the empathy of those elected representatives. Themutual contractbetween the Elected Representatives and the innocent Voters before election has become a ‘meager dream’. The irony is that their political commitment has become just an enticement to lure the petty votes.

The innocent voters are victimized due to their ignorance.

Defections and shifting affiliation hasdefamed democracy.This has eventually led to opposition-less govt. which

is detrimental for good governance and deemed to encourage more corruptions.

With such unjustified malpractices, the affairs of the state administration have become less malleable than expected.

And that was the pride of the Naga Political System. The common people are been agonized by those power hungry mongers. Such unwarranted practices have decimated the posterity and effectiveness of ideal governance.

We talk about development but land up on the half way. Numerous projects and programs are laid down to facilitate the needs of the publicand to achieve welfare state. However, the commitments and actions as perceived by the politicians are somehow provoking. They make numerous promises but their actions are too hollow which a common person finds difficult to comprehend. It has totally blurs the efficacy of good governance. Political malleability should be displayed in actions and not in words. Our Society has been miserably infused with myriad deceptions which will be difficult to fix it and as such the laymen are susceptible to such unprecedented predominant syndromes. The good morals and responsibilities which our ancestors have nursed us have been eroding.

Politics in itself is not corrupt but the people in the authority has misused and misinterpreted it. The harmony of pure polity has been decimated by few power monger individuals for their personal gains. We have laws to check such malpractices but such laws are enforceable only to the weaker section of people. The weaker people are vulnerably deemed to arbitrary action.

It is very unfortunate that the authority in power has misguided the Article 371A. Taking the advantage of this Article,corruptions, bribery, nepotism, favoritism, backdoor appointments etc. has rampantly emerged into our society, thusadversely murdering and damaging the Polity, Social Life and Economy.

It has destabilized the posterity of

Students memorandum to DC Zunheboto On shortage of science, mathematics and Sir,

MIL (Sumi0 teachers at GHSS

We the students of Government Hr. Sec. School Zunheboto, would like to bring to your esteemed office that there is a shortage of teacher in science and mathematics at secondary level and there is no PGT mathematics at all in higher secondary section. The school authority has forwarded our grievances through proper channel through the District Education Officer, directorate of School Education and secretariat School Education. But so far, we haven’t got a permanent solution to it and the waiting has been more than 8 years. The students have waited and sacrificed a lot and the career of all the students are at great risk. The school authority has tried their best alternative means, to fill up the classes by making temporary adjustment wherever necessary. But the big question is why and how can the government neglect the very right of the students to have a proper teaching staff.

That sir, it is of deepest regret that our school often makes headlines for wrong reasons, from bad HSLC exam results to dilapidated buildings and to top it all the teacher student ratio is of the worst scenario especially in science and mathematics and MIL (Sumi) at higher secondary. It is inhumanly impossible to have a quality education under such circumstances and this problem should be solved at the earliest. The students of GHSS Zunheboto believe that fundamental right for education should be maintained in letter and spirit.

Therefore sir, we request your high office to kindly intervene and do the necessary action as the earliest, our patience has been tested for long and so we have no other means but to completely go for closure of the school indefinitely until our genuine grievances is addressed from two weeks time on this date.

Students of GHSS Zunheboto

our future generations.

“Someday history will write of our era and the biggest scandal will be the thing we accepted in our leaders: chronic and endemic selfishness. History will be hard on us for that.” Peggy Noonam. While reflecting thepolitical imbroglio, it undermines the layman if the actions of the governing authority are accountable and assessable for the common good. There should be a redefining in our political system and not for petty political games. Pillars of democracy should be strengthened by rooting out corruptions; streamlining and customizing itsprocess and executions, introduce more accountability and inculcate discipline by stricter and just judiciary.A competent and just authority has to be developed to act as a catalyst to facilitate the needs of the people and curb such corruptions.

There should be a paradigm shift from ‘Imperfection to Perfection’. Democratization of policy with futuristic vision and positive outlook should be embraced. The spirit of patriotism against corruption and anti-social elements should be elevated in the mindset of impending generations.

John Adams has stated that, ‘Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity and happiness of the people; and not for the profit, honor, or private interest of any man, family, or class of men.’

And if that was the accepted concept of Government, we have to customize and change our attitude and mindset. Our principles and modus operandi of state affairs should be filtered by embracing positive outlook. The change that we fueled today will convey prodigious impetus to impending generations.

In the epilogue let us quote the words of famous scientist, Albert Einstein“Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value.” Be an anchor for Change, Undivided Best.

Safety measures for landslides by NSDMA

andslide The primary cause of landslide is denudation of vegetation on hill slopes resulting in loose / unstable soil that cannot withstand the pressure of rainfall or climate change factors.

Clearance of vegetation for construction purposes or agriculture (jhum) has an adverse impact on the stability of soil. Tremor from earthquakes or explosion could also trigger landslide, apart from erosion as a result of floods and quarrying.

Safety measures before landslide - Investigate susceptible areas to identify factors of instability and carry out corrective measures to prevent/minimize instability - Carry out re-forestation in barren areas as the roots of plants / trees will arrest slippage of soil.

Plant trees on vulnerable areas - Always be watchful on hill roads and try to note features like cracks on road surface and slopes - Do not build house near steep slopes, close to mountain edges, near drains or natural water outlets - Construct embankment on high gradient slopes Safety measures during landslide - Be alert during heavy rainfall and continuous damp weather - Stay out of the path of a landslide or debris flow

- Listen for any unusual sound that might indicate moving debris, trees cracking or rolling boulders (large stones) - Be alert when there is a sudden increase in volume of water in streams and a marked transformation from clear to muddy water What to do if you suspect imminent landslide - Alert local authorities - Informing people around you about the potential threat may help save many lives - Evacuation or getting out of the path of landslide or debris flow is the best protection - Make yourself less vulnerable and protect your head if escaping is not possible Safety measures after landslide - Avoid the landslide area.

There may be danger of subsequent slides - Look out for flooding which may follow a landslide on debris flow - Help persons who may require special assistance - infants, elderly persons and people with special needs.

Incase of landslide and other emergencies call State Emergency Operation Centre (SEOC) at 1070 (Toll free) this number is available 24/7 or SEOC landline at 03702291122 Issued in public interest : Media wing, NSDMA, Home Department

Rejoinder to ‘AR busts illegal detention centre, 6 held 2 rescued’

A

rejoinder to the news item ‘AR busts illegal detention centre, 6 held 2 rescued’ which appeared in the Nagaland Post dated August 1, 2016.

The undersigned hereby issue this rejoinder and clarify that firstly, a complaint has been received from Ramesh Rawat against Raju Kumar Chaudhury the so called president Anti-Corruption and Crime Investigation Front (ACCIF) for cheat and fraud case.

Secondly, he was interrogated and found that he had taken huge amount from different person in the form of loan and promising to repay within 2-3 months or provide jobs in Railways, military engineering services, ACCIF and other central services. Where he neither repaid nor could he provide job. Thirdly, the amount which he has taken in the form of loan amounting to Rs. 11,70,000/-(eleven lakhs seventy thousand) which is to be repaid to different people. Therefore, the claim of AR stating that Raju was asked to pay 20 lakhs for his release is totally false. Whereas, we always try the best way to deliver justice to the people. Therefore, Raju Choudhury was asked to refund Rs. 11, 70,000/- only i.e. principle amount to those people from whom he has taken as loan on several occasion (loan agreement signed by Raju Choudhury as proof is available with us.)

Whereas in the case of the so called Nyan Bora whose original name is Prabin Doley, resident of Salmari village, Dhemaji district Assam was detained on charges of different criminal activities, like smuggling of arms and ammunition, smuggling of rhino horns and lifting vehicles. And he was

T

reported wanted in Assam against different criminal charges against him and was hiding in Lahorijan area. And on that day information was received that he was coming down to Dimapur railway station to procure some ammunition where he was nabbed and not to purchase cloths for his brother’s shop as mentioned by AR. Whereas, he was arrested and detained for further interrogation. Therefore, it is made clear that no such demand of rs. 5 lakhs for his release is made. And the statement issued by AR in this connection is totally baseless and self fabricated.

Further it is also clarified that no such incriminating documents were there as stated in a press release by AR. It is to be noted that it is all a cooked up story just to tarnish the image of the NSCN/ GPRN and our cadres held by AR in this connection were mercilessly tortured in inhuman way which is totally against the ceasefire ground rules which we totally condemn.

Whereas, it is also been observed that despite ceasefire and the peace process/talk in full swing the AR does not respect the cease fire and continues harassing our people by conducting raids and arresting our workers on mere ground which is also creating fear psychosis in the mind of the public as well. But we respect the ceasefire between GoI and NSCN/GPRN. Therefore, we maintain silence and being patient all the time. Whereas the AR are trying to sabotage the ceasefire by their deeds. Therefore it should be stopped, if not things may go wrong some day and the AR shall be held responsible.

For an honorable and amicable solution

he office of the Naga Students’ Federation would like to acknowledge the government of India for the commitment shown in resolving the protracted Indo-Naga political issue by signing the “Framework Agreement” on the 3rd August, 2015 between the Government of India and the National Socialist Council of Nagalim, at 7 RCR, New Delhi.

The signing of the agreement has brought hopes to the Naga people for an honorable and amicable solution between the two entities. It has been a year now but unfortunately the lack of any tangible outcome from the peace-talk has made the Naga people to question on the “timeframe” for the solution. Therefore, the Federation ardently appeals the Government of India to expedite the political dialogue for a permanent peace as we honor the “Framework Agreement” signed one year ago.

Reader’s Post

Sir,

Caution to school children

On Saturday (30th of July) after our school (Charity School Kohima) literary competition, some students (girls) came and informed teachers that a stranger was standing near our school, whom they have seen in and around the school area for the last few days and following some girls. On recieving the news we immediately went out and spotted a huge 6footer non local guy. We asked his pass and ID’s but he didn’t give us any proper answer. We were planning to inform the police and colony youth but before we informed any, he managed to escaped from our hands. We chased him till Dakland and Nagabazar junction but he went down to Nagabazar area and we lost him. Since we could not able to nap him we hesitate to give written complain to police but, we (teachers) met the duty office incharge in North Police station and informed them about the incident. They sent an officer in our school to enquire more details about the person today.

Since many children are taking half holiday due to fever and cough, it is our concern and responsibility to inform all the schools in Kohima to be cautious and vigilant to prevent any unwanted incident. The police have also requested to inform immediately if any similar incident happens to take place in any other schools.

Anandiben Patel bows out as Guj CM; Shah to pick her successor

NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): Lok Sabha panel probing the issue regarding AAP MP Bhagwant Mann shooting a video of the Parliament complex would consult experts before deciding on the matter. “The committee has given him four opportunities to explain but contradictions were found in his stand. The committee is taking a serious view of it,” Lok Sabha panel head Kirit Somaya said outside Parliament.

On the request of Somaya, the Lok Sabha Speaker today granted two more weeks to the panel probing the issue regarding Mann shooting a video of the Parliament complex and asked the AAP member not to attend the House till a decision was taken on the matter.

“We also want to consult a few experts to suggest measures so that such an incident does not occur in future,” Somaya said.

Asked what maximum punishment can be given if Mann does not change his stand, he said the Speaker today gave two weeks more and “we will start the exercise of what could be done”.

On whether the committee would be able to submit the report before the conclusion of the monsoon session on August 12, Somaya said, “We think we would be able to do so.”

Pandey as party’s central observers to hold consultations with the MLAs for electing the new leader.

Shah will be travelling to Gujarat tomorrow where he will hold consultations with party leaders and attend the Legislature Party meeting, likely to be held on Friday to elect the new leader.

Though her departure was anticipated, the first woman chief minister of Gujarat had offered to step down on Monday ostensibly due to her age, as she is turning 75 soon.

Meanwhile, the political circles are abuzz with the likey choice of her replacement.

According to leaders in BJP, the decision on Anandiben’s successor could be taken within the next two days.

Vasava, a tribal leader, are still doing the rounds.

Nitin Patel, who is considered to be the front-runner, said, “the party Central leadership will decide on who will be the chief minister.”

Anandiben, meanwhile, issued advertisements in newspapers here today listing the works done during her two-year tenure. BJP had suffered humiliating setback in the civic polls held last year, with the opposition Congress scoring brownie points at the expense of its saffron rival.

In the last two years, the BJP also antagonised its loyal vote bank of Patidars who have been demanding OBC quota and staged violent protests last year.

Of late, the flogging of Dalits at Una also caused a massive unrest, denting further the party’s image. The BJP, which has been on a winning spree for over last two decades in Modi’s home state, seems to have sensed political setback if it continues with Anandiben who took charge in 2014 from her high-profile predecessor.

Prior to 2014, Anandiben had been serving as a minister in the BJP government since 1998.

Mandsaur assault: 2 women arrested from Neemuch NEEMUCH (MP), AUG 3 (PTI): Two women Wednesday were arrested for their alleged involvement in beating two Muslim women at Mandsaur railway station on suspicion of carrying beef which later turned out to be calf meat, police said.

“The two women, Rajni Tiwari alias Bitti and Manju Gurjar, were arrested from here after they were identified on the basis of video footage,” Superintendent of Police, Railway, Mahesh Jain told reporters.

They were arrested under sections 341 (wrongful restraint), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of IPC, he said, adding they were not associated with any outfit.

The incident of beating Muslim women--Salma and Shamim Bi- -on July 26

for allegedly carrying beef had drawn outrage. The opposition BSP and Congress had created uproar in Rajya Sabha over the incident.

The accused women had been missing since the day of the incident. Police had printed pamphlets on the basis of video footage and distributed them in various towns and cities, the SP said. “Acting on a tip-off, we took into custody Rajni initially from Neemuch and after questioning she revealed that they were coming back from Vaishno Devi temple in Jammu and boarded Ratlam-Agra Fort train for Neemuch,” Jain said.

They had boarded the train from Jaora and had a fight with the victims over a seat. When the train reached Mandsaur railway station and the victims were confronted by cow vigilantes, during which the two accused

women also beat them, he said.

The SP said that the two arrested women do not have any connection with any radical or other organisation.

They were later released on furnishing a surety of Rs 5,000 each, Jain said.

Two women, thrashed at Mandsaur railway station on the suspicion of carrying beef, had earlier alleged that they were beaten at the behest of Bajrang Dal workers.

Subsequently, the GRP had arrested four persons in this connection.

The case was initially registered by Mandsaur Police and later transferred to the Government Railway Police as the incident took place on the railway platform.

The incident came close on the heels of the attack on Dalit youths in Gujarat for skinning a dead cow.

NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): Delhi government Wednesday took over two branches of a private unaided school, which faces complaints of violation of rules, following approval by Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung even as the process was halted by Delhi High Court later.

The action has been initiated against the Rohini and the Peetampura branches of Maxfort School following several complaints against it including violation of rules in admission to candidates from economically weaker sections (EWS), false records and misappropriation of funds, among others. Directorate of Education (DoE)

officials claimed that Jung had given his approval to the take over last night.

The school authorities, however, moved court which said “no precipitative action” is to be taken, effectively ordering status quo till the next hearing, on Monday.

Ordering a stay on any precipitative action, the court appointed a local commissioner to visit the school and to maintain records of the documents sought by the government regarding the institute’s functioning.

“Lt Governor is satisfied that the managing committee of the school has neglected to perform the duties imposed on it under the Delhi School

(From p-1) “There are inputs to suggest that NSCN (K) has established camps across the border in a neighbouring country.

The government has taken measures to eliminate security threats from insurgent groups having camps outside the country,” he said. Earlier, replying to an unstarred question in the Lok Sabha posed

by CN Jayadevan with regards to AFSPA, Rijiju blamed the Manipur government for con-

tinuation of AFSPA in the state. As such, he said AFSPA is reviewed periodically and objective assessment of ground situation is made in consultation with security agencies and concerned state governments.

He also clarified that Manipur was declared as disturbed area under AFSPA by the state government of Manipur.

NIA to take over cases of missing Kerala youths this week NEW DELHI, AUG 3 (PTI): NIA will soon take over the case of missing Kerala youths who are believed to have joined banned international terror group ISIS after the state police completed its investigation.

Official sources said, Kerala police had meticulously investigated the case and identified at least 21 youths who have gone missing from the state.

Among them 17 were from Kasaragod and four from Palakkad. They include four women and three children. Two women were among those missing from Palakkad.

The sources said the Kerala police had finished its part of investigation and the case was now being transferred to the NIA for carrying out the probe overseas.

The exercise will include collecting of evidence from foreign countries.

A notification is expected to be issued this week under which all the nine cases registered by the Kerala police will be handed over to the NIA, they said.

The probe by the state police was wound up with

the arrest of a 29-year-old Bihari woman, suspected to be involved in recruitment of young men and women from Kerala for ISIS. She was taken into custody just before she was to board a plane to Kabul where her husband, also allegedly linked to ISIS, is currently located.

The woman, identified as Yasmin Ahmed, was arrested by a special team of Kerala police from Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi when she was about to leave the country for Kabul on Sunday, police said.

The woman is the second wife of main accused Abdul Rashid, a native of Kasaragod, and is alleged to have played a key role in the recruitment of state youths in ISIS, sources said.

The NIA and police forces of various states have so far arrested 54 youths across the country after registering cases to investigate their alleged links with Islamic State.

The terrorist outfit is using various platforms to propagate its ideology and to attract young people from across the world.

talks a year after the historic Naga Framework Agreement was signed. Speaking in the Lok Sabha, the MP and former chief minister of Nagaland felt that the issue should be settled at the earliest.

“It has been 19 years since the ceasefire agreement was signed and the formal talk at the highest level was initiated. Till date, more than hundred rounds of talks have been held but they are yet to reach a logical conclusion.

How much longer must the talk

continue before we reach the final settlement? “asked Rio. Stating that unless the issue was addressed with utmost seriousness and the Centre treated it as a national crisis, the situation could deteriorate and spin out of control again.

“An early settlement that is honourable and acceptable to the people, democratic in nature and one that upholds truth and justice, so as to allow Nagas to live in permanent peace should be urgently reached,” said Rio.

GANDHINAGAR/NEW DELHI, AUG 2 (PTI): Gujarat Chief Minister Anandiben Patel on Wednesday submitted her resignation to Governor O P Kohli hours after the BJP Parliamentary Board accepted her offer to quit and authorised party president Amit Shah to pick her successor to lead the party in 2017 polls.

Gold continued its rising streak for the third-straight day at the domestic bullion market here Wednesday on the back of increased buying by jewellery stockists as well as retailers in line with a firming overseas trend. Elsewhere, silver turned weak owing to subdued demand from consuming industries. Standard gold (99.5 purity) climbed by Rs 215 to end at Rs 31,450 per 10 grams as compared to Tuesday’s closing level of Rs 31,235. Pure gold (99.9 purity) also rose by a similar margin to finish at Rs 31,600 per 10 grams as against Rs 31,385 yesterday.

“The Indian ser vice economy started the second semester on a solid footing, posting its strongest performance since April and thereby indicating that underlying demand conditions remained reasonably firm,” Pollyanna De Lima, economist at IHS Markit, was quoted as saying in the report.

Employment was broadly unchanged in both the manufacturing and service sectors during July, as indicated by the respective indices recording only fractionally above the crucial 50.0 threshold. It has now been over two-and-a-half years since the private sector has seen meaningful job creation, the survey said.

The proposal also include penalties of Rs 1,000 in case of LMV and Rs 2,000 for medium passenger vehicle.

Penalty for dangerous driving would be increased to Rs 5,000 from Rs 1,000 while drunken driving under the proposed new law would attract a fine of Rs 10,000.

“If aggregators are found violating lincencing conditions, they will be charged a sum of up to Rs 1 lakh” while overloading of vehicles would attract a penalty of Rs 20,000.

Those not wearing seat belts would attract Rs 1,000 fine and those found not wearing helmets while driving twowheelers would be charged a penalty of Rs 1,000 while their licenses will be disqualified for three months.

In the present Motor Vehicle Act, there are 223 Sections out of which the Bill aims to amend 68 sections. The Bill also proposes insertion of 28 new sections.

“The important provisions include increase in compensation for Hit & Run cases from Rs 25,000 to Rs 2 lakh. It also has provision for payment of compensation upto Rs 10 lakh in road accidents fatalities,” Gadkari said.

Mumbai, Aug 3 (IANS): Indian service providers enjoyed a welcome upturn in demand during July with the Nikkei Services Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) rising from 50.3 in June to a threemonth high of 51.9 in July, a business survey on performance of the services sector showed on Wednesday.

The upturn in July came with a faster increase in new business underpinning stronger growth of output and boosting confidence, the survey said.

An index reading of above 50 indicates an overall increase, while below 50 an overall decrease. The PMI series of data are published by the leading global diversified provider of financial information services “IHS Markit”.

The provisions also include that guardian/owner will be deemed to be guilty in case of road offence by juveniles while registration of the vehicle will be cancelled.

Government today approved the much- awaited Motor Vehicle (Amendment) Bill 2016 that proposes hefty penalties for violation of traffic norms including up to Rs 10,000 fine for drunken driving and Rs 2 lakh compensation for hit-and-run cases.

As per the new provisions “guardian/owner shall be deemed to be guilty and there will be a penalty of Rs 25,000 with three years imprisonment and cancellation of registration of the Motor Vehicle.”

Traffic violations also would now attract a penalty of Rs 500 in place of Rs 100 earlier while disobedience of orders of authorities will attract a minimum penalty of Rs 2,000 in place of Rs 500 earlier. Penalty for unauthorised use of vehicles without licence has been proposed at Rs 5,000 while those driving without license will have to shell out the same amount and those found driving despite disqualification would be fined a minimum Rs 10,000.

everyone in the country...I have a responsibility to solve this problem. I feel that I have been put forward as a candidate to work as a bridge between (communities),” he told the House.

Prachanda will take over as the 39th prime minister of Nepal. This is the second time Prachanda has become Prime Minister after his brief stint with premiership came to an end in 2009. He is also the only communist leader to become the Prime Minister of the country twice.

He was prime minister from 2008 to 2009 before a disagreement with the military over his attempt to sack the army chief brought his period in office to an early end.

The Prime Minister’s post had been left vacant since last month after CPN-UML chairman K P Sharma Oli tendered his resignation.

Prachanda won today’s vote after Nepali Congress and

CPN Maoist Centre signed a three-point agreement with the Madhesi Front to secure support from the Madhesi parties for their bid to form a new government led by him.

As per the agreement, the government-in-waiting would implement the Madhesi Front’s demands that include acknowledging those killed during the Madhes agitation as martyrs and providing free treatment to the injured besides amending the Constitution to redraw provincial boundary, while the Madhesi parties would support the new government.

More than 50 people died in clashes between police and protesters in recent months. Prachanda is likely to announce a small cabinet comprising members from Maoist party, Nepali Congress, CPN-United and Rastriya Prajatantra Party on Thursday after being declared as the Prime Minister.

Pak Kashmir groups protest Rajnath’s visit Islamabad/Lahore, Aug 3 (PTI): More than 2,000 activists of various religious and jihadi outfits in Pakistan today protested against the visit of Indian home minister Rajnath Singh, accusing him for the unrest in Kashmir. Activists of All Parties Hurriyat Conference, Hizbul Mujahideen, United Jihad Council (UJC) and other such group protested to denounce Singh’s trip to attend the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) ministerial conference being hosted by Pakistan.

Syed Salahuddin, the leader of militant outfit Hizbul Mujahidden, who is also chief of UJC, and local leaders of other groups were seen during the protest.

North Korea fires missile into sea controlled by Japan causing a lot of tension in the region.

(155 miles) off its northern coast and within the country’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). “It’s a serious threat against our country’s security,” Prime Minister Shinzo Abe told reporters. “This is an

outrageous act that cannot be tolerated.”

The United States condemned what it called a clear violation of UN Security Council resolutions explicitly prohibiting North Korea’s use

of ballistic missile technology.

“This provocation only serves to increase the international community’s resolve to counter (North Korea’s) prohibited activities,” said Pentagon spokesman Gary Ross. US Strategic Command said the two missiles were launched from a site in western North Korea at around 7:50am Seoul time.

“Initial indications reveal one of the missiles exploded immediately after launch, while the second was tracked over North Korea and into the Sea of Japan,” it said in a statement.

It was the first time a North Korean missile has been fired direct into Japanese waters. The second stage of a medium-range missile fired over Japan had splashed down inside the EEZ off Japan’s Pacific Ocean coast in 1998.

Donald Trump and Barack Obama day maybe I can win the election, no I guess he probably has to say that kind of thing,” Trump said when asked about Obama’s statement yesterday.

Obama had strongly denounced Trump, saying he is unfit to serve as the 45th president of the US. “I think the Republican nominee is unfit to serve as president. I said so last week and he keeps on proving it,”

Obama said yesterday.

United Nations, Aug 3 (PTI): In an unusual move, the UN has backtracked from its statement that it will continue to monitor the situation in Kashmir through its military observer group in India and Pakistan, clarifying that the mission does not have a mandate beyond the LoC. The clarification was issued by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon’s spokesman Stephane Dujarric yesterday, a day after the UN chief ’s deputy spokesperson Farhan Haq told reporters that the the UN will continue to monitor the situation in Kashmir, including through “our monitoring group” UN Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP).

Dujarric said regarding the situation in Kashmir, “I just wanted to clarify something, which is that UNMOGIP, the UN observer presence there, its mandate is to

report on the ceasefire between India and Pakistan along the Line of Control. The UN Mission there does not have a mandate there beyond the Line of Control.”

When asked why he was making the clarification, Dujarric said, “because I think it needed to be said”.

The clarification seems to imply that the situation and incidents in Kashmir are India’s internal matter and do not come under the control of UNMOGIP that only observes and reports on ceasefire violations along the Line of Control and does not monitor the situation in Jammu and Kashmir. Dujarric was also asked why the Secretary General does not initiate efforts to settle the Kashmir conflict, even as the world body is trying to resolve conflicts in Cyprus and the Middle East.

to...to analyse the reasoning. I think the questions on the situation in Kashmir have come up with us today and previously. Our answers to those questions remain the same,” Dujarric said, without elaborating.

Asked why there is “reluctance” on the part of the Secretary-General and the UN to offer any comments on the situation in Kashmir, Dujarric said when questions arise on the issue, the UN offers comments. “So I don’t agree as being reluctant,” he said.

Protests broke out across Kashmir Valley on July 9, a day after Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani was killed in an encounter with Indian security forces, leading to clashes in which 50 people have been killed and over 5,600 injured.

Seoul, Aug 3 (AFP): North Korea fired a ballistic missile directly into Japanesecontrolled waters for the first time today, drawing an outraged response from Tokyo and ramping up tensions with the United States and South Korea.

The US military said the North had actually launched two Rodong intermediaterange missiles simultaneously, but one appeared to have exploded on take-off.

The launches followed a North Korean threat of “physical action” over the planned deployment of a sophisticated US anti-missile system in South Korea, and came just weeks before the start of large-scale, joint South Korea-US military exercises.

Japan said the one missile had landed in the Sea of Japan, some 250 kilometres

Washington, Aug 3 (PTI): Donald Trump today hit back at Barack Obama for terming him unfit for presidency, saying the “terrible president” was a “disaster” and probably the worst in American history, as the war of words between the two leaders escalated.

“Well he’s a terrible president. He’ll probably go down as the worst president in the history of our country, he’s been a total disaster,” Trump told Sinclair Broadcast group in an interview yesterday.

“You look at what happens in the Middle East, in Syria and his line in the sand.

I think it just means he’s concerned I’m going to win,” he claimed.

Dubai, Aug 3 (PTI): Three hundred people, mostly Indians, had a narrow escape today when a packed Emirates flight from Thiruvananthapuram to Dubai crash landed and caught fire here with authorities saying that all on board were evacuated safely. Emirates confirmed that flight EK521 with 282 passengers and 18 crew members on board was involved in an accident at Dubai international airport. The airlines said there were 226 Indians aboard the Boeing 777-300. “We can confirm that there are no fatalities among our passengers and crew. All passengers and crew are accounted for and safe,” the airlines said in statement.

The flight EK521 departed at 10.19 AM from Trivandrum International Airport and was scheduled to land at 12.50 PM at Dubai International Airport. Among the 282 passengers, seven infants were also travelling in the flight, Thiruvananthapuram Airport director George Tharakkan told PTI. The flight had two Indian crew members on board, he said. There were a total of 74 foreigners on board the flight including 24 from the UK, 11 from the UAE and six each from the US and Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, Dubai airport authorities suspended all operations after the Emirates flight accident. “Emergency response teams at Dubai Airport have fully extinguished the fire on the Emirates plane.

All passengers and crew were safely evacuated,” the Dubai media office tweeted after the accident.

Kathmandu, Aug 3 (PTI): Maoist chief Prachanda was today elected by lawmakers as Nepal’s Prime Minister for a second time, promising to lead the nation toward economic development while working as a bridge between communities following deadly protests over a divisive new Constitution.

Though Pushpa Kamal Dahal - better known by his nom de guerre ‘Prachanda’ (the fierce one) - was the only contender for the top post, he had to go through the voting as the Constitution requires the Prime Minister to prove support of the majority lawmakers in the House.

The 61-year-old CPNMaoist Centre chief, known for his anti-India stance, was elected Prime Minister with 363 votes in favour and 210 against him. Out of a total 595 members, 22 did not vote.

He was backed by the largest party in the House, Nepali Congress, constituents of the United Democratic Madhesi Front and the Federal Alliance and some other smaller parties.

Speaker Onsari Gharti announced Prachanda’s victory after the election.

Ahead of the election, Prachanda pledged to lead the nation toward economic development while moving ahead with the spirit of national consensus during his premiership.

India at Rio Olympics 2016: Full list of medal contenders

Saina Nehwal,

Vikas Krishan

Babita Kumari

Deepika Kumari

N e w D e l h i , Au g 3 (Agencies): India is sending its biggest-ever contingent of athletes to the Olympics this time around and this does make our expectations high.

Around 120 athletes over 12 disciplines will be doing what they do the best at the Rio Olympics 2016, scheduled to start August 5.

Some of the big names are missing, that’s a fact, but without ruing much over what has not happened, let us turn our attention to what can happen. There are plenty of medal contenders from India this time around and we have listed some names -- expected and unexpected ones -- who can really make Olympics 2016 their landmark event.

Here are a look at the sports and the medals in store:

BOXING Big names missing Vijender Singh, Mary Kom, Akhil Kumar.

Medal contenders - Vikas Krishan Athletes profile: Vikas, 24, can turn out to be the joker in the pack. Of course, the middleweight (74 kg) category boasts of plenty big names like Arlen Lopez Cardona (Cuba) and Michael O’Reilly (Ireland), but the Indian has age and the fire to perform.

A Bronze medal winner at the Asian Games 2014 and a Silver medal winner at the Asian Boxing Championships 2015, Vikas is coming off with a win against Nickson Abaka of Kenya in an AIBA Pro Boxing held in Noida, India, in June 2016.

WRESTLING Big names missing - Su-

shil Kumar Medal contenders - Yogeshwar Dutt, Babita Kumari, Vinesh Phogat Athletes profile: A knee injury could have come as a setback last year, but there is no hiding the fact that the 2012 London Olympics bronze medallist would be giving out a dominating performance this time around as well. The 33-year-old won a gold medal both in the Asian Games 2014 and the Commonwealth Games 2014.

Babita, 26, is no doubt one of the best women wrestlers in India at the moment and she will be determined to making full use of her first-ever Olympics. The Commonwealth Games 2014 gold medallist is definitely going to make a mark in the 53kg freestyle wrestling category.

Babita’s younger sister, Vinesh, 21, is also making her debut at the Olympics this time around. The Commonwealth Games 2014 gold medallist, who will compete in the 48kg freestyle wrestling category, has mentioned that she would want nothing less than a gold, following her successful training camp in Madrid ahead of the Olympics.

SHOOTING Big names missing - Vijay Kumar Medal contenders - Jitu Rai, Abhinav Bindra, Gagan Narang, Heena Sidhu Athletes profile: The Nepalese-origin Indian shooter Jitu is India’s best bet to bring home a gold medal in the sport the country has dominated. The 29-year-old has bossed every event he has been a part of, in recent times. He

won a hat-trick of gold medals in the Commonwealth Games 2014, the Asian Games 2014 and the ISSF World Cup 2014. He will compete in Rio in the 50m and the 10m pistol events.

Bindra, who will be taking part in his last Olympics, will be looking to bow out on a high. The 2008 Beijing Olympics gold medallist in the 10m air rifle event was also named India’s flag-bearer for Rio Olympics 2016.

Narang, another big name, will be expected to giving his best in the event.

The 2012 London Olympics bronze medallist may have slacked in recent years, but the 33-year-old is expected to shine once again in the big stage. Heena, 26, is slowly getting to that position where she is being tagged as a real medal

contender. The girl from Ludhiana won the Olympic quota after clinching a gold medal in the women’s 10m air pistol at the Asia Olympic Qualifiers in New Delhi in January 2016.

An Arjuna Award winner, she won the gold medal recently in the Asian Shooting Championships in Kuwait last year.

BADMINTON Big names missing - P Kashyap Medal contenders Saina Nehwal, PV Sindhu Athletes profile: Saina, making her third appearance in the Olympics at the age of 26, will be expected to bring the gold medal this time around. The 2012 London Olympics bronze medallist may have had to battle a lot of injuries in recent years and slump in form, but she is expected to make it all count in

Yogeshwar Dutt

Dipa Karmakar

the grandest stage of them all.

Sindhu, 21, may not be looking that good at the moment as she used to some years back, but don’t expect the lanky shuttler to back down as she gets set for her maiden Olympics.

The Hyderabadi is being billed as a genuine medal contender in Olympics 2016 after winning a gold in the South Asian Games women’s team event and a silver in the singles event.

OTHER SPORTS Medal contenders Deepika Kumari (Archery): The 22-year-old from Ranchi is a sureshot medal contender, with gold being her primary target. Deepika won the silver medal in the mixed recurve event with Atanu Das during the Archery World Cup 2016, after shooting a world recordleveling 686/720 in Shanghai earlier this year.

India women’s hockey team: The women’s team, to be led by Sushila Chanu, has been sensational in recent times. They sealed qualification for the Olympics after 36 years and currently, look like a dominant force. Although star player Ritu Rani was controversially omitted from the final Rio squad, the India eves, who won the South Asian Games 2016 gold, will be expected to give their best.

Dipa Karmakar: The 22year-old Tripura girl who has made history will be expected to continue her magical run in the Rio Olympics 2016 too.

One of those very few gymnasts to perfect the Produvona vault, Dipa, a bronze medallist at the 2015 Asian Gymnastics Championships, could turn out to be the dark horse for India this time around.

IN GRATEFUL APPRECIATION

Perfect rest to me is promised, In my Father's house above.

30.04.1960 – 26.07.2016

In the most difficult and harrowing time of the prolonged illness and loss of my beloved husband and our father, Lt. Er. I Moakaba Longchar, Mangmetong, we took immense strength in the love, prayer and financial support of our relatives, friends, various organizations, department and the people who were involved in providing him with medical care.

Our words are inadequate to convey our gratitude but it is our heartfelt prayer that such kindness and generosity may return to each one of you a husband fold.

We knew him as a selfless and patient husband and father, who nurtured ours into the well-knit and loving family that we are today. May his strength of character and indomitable spirit remain with us and inspire us to carry forward his legacy.

Today, God has gathered him away so that he may be healed and set free of his suffering. Bereaved though we are, we take comfort in the promise that this parting is momentary and we shall soon reunite eternally on the beautiful shore.

K I N G S TO N, AU G 3 (IANS): West Indies reached 215/5 in their second innings at lunch on the final day to raise their hopes of drawing the second Test against India at the Sabina Park here on Wednesday.

break the partnership, India skipper Virat Kohli turned towards his premier off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who did not disappoint and sent Blackwood packing for a 54ball 63. Blackwood’s explosive knock composed of nine fours and two sixes.

Since then young stumper Shane Dowrich (33 not out) joined Chase in the middle and the right-handed duo managed to keep the Indian bowlers at bay. Their unbeaten sixth wicket stand produced 74 runs as the hosts added 167 runs in the first session. The Indian bowling didn’t really trouble the duo as they brought up the 50partnership off 82 balls, and the 200-mark came up for the West Indies in the 50th over.

Yadav and Shami did get the ball to reverse later in the ses-

sion, but couldn’t get another success before the lunch break as the two batsmen looked comfortable at the crease.

Earlier on Tuesday, only a little less than 16 overs could be bowled as incessant rains forced an early close of play with the visitors on the driver’s seat needing just six wickets to win the second Test.

India, in their first innings declared on 500/9 after bundling out the hosts for a paltry 196.

India lead the fourmatch series 1-0 after winning the first match at Antigua by an innings and 92 runs.

Brief Scores: West Indies 196 & 215/5 (Roston Chase 70 not out, Jermaine Blackwood 63, Shane Dowrich 33 not out, Mohammed Shami 2/53) vs India 500/9 declared.

World wrestling body clears path for Narisingh’s Rio participation New Delhi, Aug 3 (IANS): The world’s apex wrestling body, United World Wrestling (UWW), on Wednesday gave the green light to India’s Narsingh Yadav for participation at the Rio Olympics, starting on Friday, after the country’s National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) gave a clean chit to the grappler.

The Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) had communicated to UWW on Monday that NADA has cleared Narsingh of all doping-related charges and the 26-year-old would be re-included in the Indian team for the 74 kilogram competition.

WFI confirmed on Wednesday that UWW has given its go ahead to Narsingh’ for the Rio Games. Narsingh, who bagged the quota with a bronze medal finish in last year’s World Championships, first returned positive for a banned steroid following a NADA dope test on June 25.

But NADA exonorated him of all doping charges, saying he

“was a victim of sabotage done by a competitor”.

“We immediately wrote a letter to the world body to reconsider Narsingh’s name in 74kg category after he was given a clean chit by NADA. Today I am really delighted to announce that UWW has reverted back saying that Narsingh will be allowed to participate in the Olympics,” WFI president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh confirmed.
