PCI team in M’pur to interact with media, formulate guidelines

CBI arrests Kejriwal’s principal secretary, 4 others in graft case

IMPHAL, JUL 4 (IANS): A threemember team of the Press Council of India (PCI) arrived here on Monday for a three-day visit, during which they will study the ground realities of the problems journalists face from security forces and insurgents and formulate some guidelines for the media in the insurgencyafflicted North Eastern region.

The members of the PCI subcommittee are Ravindra Kumar who is also editor of The Statesman, Kasuri Amarnath and C.K. Neikareni. Ravindra Kumar told reporters at the Tulihal international airport that the sub-committee shall formulate some guidelines which may be approved by the PCI for implementation in the region.

“The ball was set rolling in Nagaland when some underground organisations forced the press to publish their handouts and these were not to the liking of the government.

“In Manipur, the NIA (National Investigation Agency) was not amused by the coverage of the underground news. The government issued a notification asking the media to abide by the PCI recommendations on the matter. It is against the freedom of the press guaranteed by the constitution if the press is restrained in publishing news,” he said.

During their stay, the sub-committee members shall talk with the Manipur government representatives, officials of the security forces and journalists. “Press in most of the northeastern states is sandwiched between the government and the insurgents over the publication of the underground reports and sub-committee shall try to find a way out,” said Ravindra Kumar.

gent Communication System India Limited (ICSIL) A.K. Duggal and G.K. Nanda, the present managing director of ICSIL R.S. Kaushik and the two arrested directors of Endeavour Systems Private Limited.

The CBI alleged that the accused persons had entered into a criminal conspiracy and caused a loss of Rs 12 crore to the Delhi Government in award of contracts between 2007 and 2015, and claimed that the officials had taken “undue benefit” of over Rs three crore while awarding the contract.

Without any government tendering process, Rajendra Kumar, when working as chairman of Delhi Transco Limited, allegedly facilitated an award of contract worth Rs 40.16 lakh to Endeavour Systems for the development of a comprehensive management information system in 2009, the official said.

“As a secretary in the health and family welfare department of the Delhi government, Rajendra allegedly awarded a Rs 2.43 crore manpower project in the health ministry to Endeavour Systems through ICSIL in November 2010. This tender was also not passed by the government,” the official said.

Working as commissioner in trade and taxes department, Rajendra Kumar in May 2012 facilitated a project award of Rs 3.66 crore to Endeavour Systems through ICSIL for the development of software applications, the official said. Rajendra Kumar, as a secretary of information and technology in the Delhi government, allowed a facility management system project worth Rs 45.5 lakh to Endeavour Systems in July 2013 without any government tender.

“As a secretary to Delhi CM, Rajendra ensured and allegedly facilitated a project of enterprise resources planning of Delhi Jal Board worth Rs.2.46 crore to Endeavour Systems in June 2014. This project was given to ICSIL by the Delhi Jal Board in February 2014 through a proper tendering process,” the official said.

NEW DELHI, JUL 4 (AGENCIES): Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Monday arrested Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s Principal Secretary Rajendra Kumar and four others over an alleged Rs 50 crore scam on award of software contracts.

According to the FIR, Rajendra Kumar promoted a company, Endeavour System Pvt. Ltd. Rajendra Kumar, a 1989 batch IAS officer of Arunachal Pradesh-Goa-Mizoram and Union Territory (AGMUT) cadre, allegedly facilitated an award of five contracts worth Rs.9.5 crore to ICSIL and Endeavour Systems during 2007-2014. A CBI official said that Kumar has emerged as the kingpin of the scam.

Four others, including former assistant director of VAT department Tarun Sharma, were also arrested for alleged corruption.

“There are allegations that he (Kumar) favoured private companies to make their way for tendering process. Further investigation is going on,” a spokesperson for the investigating agency said.

Deputy CM Manish Sisodia accused Centre of a conspiracy to “paralyse” the Kejriwal government. “The Central government has now stooped very low by doing this. This is all a conspiracy,” Sisodia said. “Modi ji, let me tell you - we’ve been elected by ppl of Delhi, we shall run an effective govt for them despite all your attacks on us!” his tweet reads.

The others booked in the case include two former managing directors of Intelli-

NPRAAF to stage protest No SRF office, flags in Eastern Nagaland: ENSF NH, NPO to hold larger against F&CS department consultative meeting DIMAPUR, JUL 4 (NPN): With the expiry of 15-day deadline extended the food and civil supplies (F&CS) department to cancel all backdoor appointments, the Nagaland Public Rights Awareness and Action Forum (NPRAAF) has announced that it has decided to stage series of democratic and non-violent agitation in the office premises of food and civil supplies (F&CS) department at Dimapur within a few days time.

In a press release, information and publicity cell, NPRAAF, said even after extension of the deadline for 15 days as requested

by F&CS department, which expired on July 2, the department took no substantial action. The forum therefore said it had no option but to resort to phase wise agitation to bring the matter to logical conclusion. During the course of agitation, NPRAAF said it would also take up the issue of irregularities in PDS such as rice, wheat, kerosene etc and irregularities in the appointment system of stockists/sub-stockists and power of attorney system.

The for um cautioned F&CS department that it would not be held responsible for any eventuality that could arise during the protest. It also urged the chief minister, who is holding the charge of F&CS department, to intervene on the matter.

Seeks clarification

The forum stated that it has taken a serious note of the “unbecoming language” allegedly used by F&CS director during a telephonic conversation to its office bearer on May 20, 2016, wherein the director purportedly said he took the issue raised by NPRAAF “personally.”

“Such attitude is unbecoming of an officer heading a department since NPRAAF is not targeting any individual but taking up the issue for the welfare of the public,” it stated and demanded the director clarify why he has taken the matter “personally.” NPRAAF cautioned that failure to give “satisfactory clarification or public apology” would compel it to take own course of action.

DIMAPUR, JUL 4 (NPN): Eastern Naga Students’ Federation (ENSF) through its “Shopilak Declaration 2016”, adopted during 15th federal assembly held at Tuensang HQ on June 28, 2016, has directed all its respective federating units to strictly ensure that no SRF office should be established and no SRF flags should be hoisted within Eastern Nagaland.

In a press release, ENSF assembly speaker N.C. Mongko Chang and assembly secretary Lokhum Yim stated that the ‘Shopilak Resolution’ had been declared in order to maintain and safeguard the interest and aspiration of the people, which were duly endorsed by all the village councils of all the eastern Nagaland villages under the four districts of Tuensang, Mon, Longleng and Kiphire.

The federation also resolved to appeal to the entire concerned citizens “currently enticed into the fold of the so called SRF to immediately denounce its membership and to join hand into the mandated

stream of the masses.”

According to ENSF, many innocent public were treacherously flattered in to the group by assuring glamorous benefits such as registered & ID card holders would be directly recruited into military once its target was achieved; value/ amount of registration determines the rank & profile of the member and many innocent elders were falsely enticed by offering magnificent ranks and assuring glamorous benefits.

ENSF further warned the “so called SRF groups” not to confuse the innocent public by assuring early political solution “while they themselves are being in tuned with utmost forms of corruption and game.”

The federation after taking serious note has also warned “those individuals/ bureaucrats/groups to immediately abstain from such destructive act”, saying its silence should not be taken for granted.

ENSF said it had already “listed some people who are treacherously involved behind the screen.” It also appealed to

all the Naga Political Groups (NSCN-IM/NSCN-K/ GPRN/NSCN/NSCN-R/ FGN/NNC etc) to refrain from accommodating any such element/group in to their system so as to avoid confusion and misunderstanding. It said any factions doing so shall be doing at their own risk.

Meanwhile, in accordance to the “Shopilak Declaration”, ENSF has directed all the six federation units to immediately start executing the resolution within its respective jurisdiction by July 5, 2016 onwards. The federation cautioned that it would not be held responsible if the “Shopilak Declaration” was not being adhered to. “Respective village level students had been assigned to thoroughly investigate in upholding its endorsement,” it stated.

In the mean time, ENSF has appealed to “all those individually currently treacherously enrolled into SRF to come forward openly with clear conscious so as to strive jointly out in finding a peaceful solution for all.”

stroyed thus affecting the biodiversity.

Sonari said the need of the hour was that every citizen should be aware of the environmental issues.

In the context of Nagaland, she said the church could play an important role along with the responsible citizens and the NGOs to bring the awareness of conservation.

AGARTALA, JUL 4 (PTI): With formal inauguration of the revised Inland Water Transit and Trade Protocol (IWTTP) having provision of third-country access with Bangladesh, steps have been taken to ship essential commodities including foodgrains and fuel to Tripura via the neighbouring country, a minister said on Monday.

“Initiatives have been taken to bring the essential commodities, including fuel and foodgrains, by using the waterways of Bangladesh through Ashuganj port on the river Meghna,” Tripura Revenue and PWD Minister Badal Chowdhury told reporters here.

Chowdhury said the Assam-Agartala National Highway (NH-8) is almost closed due to damage along a 20-km stretch at Lowepoia in Karimganj district of bordering Assam due to rainfall and water-logging.

Parrikar moots idea for Uttarkhand clouburst: 2 more Dhaka terror attack raising all women battalion bodies recovered; toll rises to 20 victim Tarishi cremated

GURGAON, JUL 4 (IANS): The mortal remains of 19years-old Tarishi Jain, who was among the 20 hostages killed in a gruesome terror attack in Dhaka, was on Monday brought here by her family for the last rites.

The cremation was held at the Shiv Murti Cremation ground near IFFCO Chowk in Gurgaon’s Sector 29 on the Delhi-Gurgaon expressway.

Central and state ministers were among those who paid tributes when the body arrived from Dhaka.

Haryana Education Minister Ram Bilas Sharma, Gurgaon Deputy Commissioner T.L. Satyaprakash and other officials earlier on Monday afternoon received Tarishi’s mortal remains at Delhi’s IGI Airport. Union Minister of State for Power Minister Piy-

Techie murder case: accused brought to Chennai; sent to jail

CHENNAI, JUL 4 (PTI): The accused in the murder of a woman IT employee here, arrested last week and hospitalised in Tirunelveli after attempting suicide while being nabbed, was Monday brought to the city and admitted to a government hospital where a magistrate remanded him in judicial custody.

24-year-old P Ramkumar was brought in an ambulance from Tirunelveli Government Medical College Hospital with a medical team and police escort and admitted to the Government Royapettah Hospital in the early hours, police said.

XIII Metropolitan Magistrate S Gopinathan visited Ramkumar

at the hospital and remanded him in judicial custody for 15 days, police said. Ramkumar was arrested on July 1 from his house in T Meenkakshipuram village in Tirunelveli district in connection with the June 24 sensational murder of S Swati at Nungambakkam railway station here. He had attempted suicide by slashing his neck when surrounded by police following which he was undergoing treatment at the Tiruneveli hospital. Tirunelveli First Judicial Magistrate Ramadoss had yesterday visited Ramkumar at the hospital in Tirunelveli and gave authorisation to bring him here with police security and medical personnel.

Manohar Parrikar NEW DELHI, JUL 4 (PTI): Determined to break the gender barrier in the armed forces, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar Monday mooted the idea of raising an all women battalion and stationing of women on warships besides opening the doors of the National Defence Academy and Sainik schools for them.

However, Parrikar made it clear that the “affirmative action” towards empowerment of women will be done gradually without compromising main task of armed forces which is national security.

He said the gover nment has been successful in breaking the “psychological barrier” with the induction of women as female fighter pilots. The Defence Minister, credited with the path breaking move of allowing IAF women pilots in combat role, said that even though India is a country of Jhansi ki Rani and Durga, women have been made to stay away due to various reasons.

DEHRADUN, JUL 4 (PTI): Two more bodies were recovered from the debris in cloudburst-hit village of Bastadi in Pithoragarh district, raising the toll in rain-related incidents in the state to 20 while searches were on for 12 people who are still missing, by the Army, paramilitary and police personnel.

According to the Disaster Mitigation Centre, two more bodies were recovered in Bastadi village of Pithoragarh district taking the toll caused by the cloudburst in the wee hours of Friday to 17.

The number of recovered bodies swept away by flash floods in Chamoli continues to be 3 and the total fatalities from both districts located far apart from each other currently

is 20. Light intermittent rains continue in affected areas of Pithoragarh district but there is no interruption in rescue operations which are likely to continue for some more time, Additional Secretary, Disaster Management, C Ravishankar said. He said the decision to stop rescue operations will be taken by the district authorities who are monitoring the situation on the spot.

Water, electricity supply and communication system is badly disrupted in Bastadi, Nauleda, Rigolia, Nachani and Charma villages of Pithoragarh district and efforts are underway to restore them at the earliest, the official said.

Four houses have been fully damaged in Pithoragarh

district and 12 were damaged partially.

Meanwhile, RishikeshBadrinath highway blocked by rubble falling from hillsides has still not been opened.

The road to Kedarnath has also been blocked between Sonprayag and Gaurikund.

Work is also underway to open 33 rural motor roads in Chamoli district. GREF and PWD personnel are busy restoring the roads with the help of JCBs. 160 families have been affected by rain related incidents who have been kept in makeshift relief camps built in government school and panchayat buildings in Basatadi and Nauleda villages, Ravishankar said.

SC to expedite hearing on plea to examine Christian Canon law

NEW DELHI, JUL 4 (PTI): Supreme Cour t Monday agreed to expedite hearing on a PIL to examine the issue whether divorce granted by a Church, set up under its personal law, could be considered valid under the Indian common law.

A bench comprising Chief Justice T S Thakur and Justice D Y Chandrachud allowed an interim application moved for early hearing in the case after former Attorney General and senior advocate Soli Sorabjee, appearing

for petitioner Clarence Pais, sought an urgent hearing.

“The application for early hearing is allowed. Hearing of the appeal is expedited,” the bench said.

Pais, an ex-president of a Catholic association in Karnataka, said when oral ‘triple talaq’ could get legal sanctity for granting divorce to Muslim couples, why could Canon law decrees not be made binding on courts of law.

He had alleged that many Catholic Christians, who married after getting divorce from

Christian courts, faced criminal charges of bigamy as such divorces are not recognised by the criminal and civil courts here.

“It is reasonable that when the courts in India recognize dissolution of marriage (by pronouncing the word talaq three times) under Mohammedan Law which is personal law of the Muslims, the courts should also recognise for the purpose of dissolution of marriage Canon Law as the personal law of the Indian Catholics,” the plea had contended.

ush Goyal, Union Minister of State Rao Inderjit Singh, other Haryana ministers MLAs along with others, paid tribute to her.

Earlier, people paid her rich tribute at Gurgaon’s DLF-1 community centre amid sombre atmosphere with relatives crying inconsolably for Tarishi.

Tarishi, a student of University of California-Berkeley, was in Dhaka on vacation. She had gone with two other friends to a cafe in the upscale Gulshan area where she was brutally killed by Islamist terrorists.

On Saturday, she was among the first victims of Dhaka’s siege to be identified.

Her friends Abinta Kabir and Faraaz Hossain were also killed in the attack.

Nine Italians, seven Japanese, one Indian, one Bangladeshi American and two Bangladeshis were killed in the terror attack at the Holey Artisan Bakery in Gulshan on Friday night.

Tarishi’s father, who runs a garment business in Bangladesh for the last 15-20 years, has a flat in Sector 32 of Gurgaon.

The family members decided to cremate her in Gurgaon as it would be difficult to take the body to her native place in Firozabad in Uttar Pradesh by road.

The Bangladesh government handed over the body of Tarishi to her relatives on Monday morning in Dhaka, following which her moral remains were flown to Delhi.

that we need to do a strategic move,” he said noting that normally armed forces are male dominated.

If the Army and the Navy are opened up for combat roles for women, India will join the small club of countries in the world, including US, Israel, to have such a system.

“There is a thinking that soldiers will not listen to a Commanding Officer who is a lady because they are not trained to do that. I don’t agree with this as the only restriction today is infrastructure,” he said speaking at a seminar organised by FICCI FLO, the women wing of the industry chamber.

“In combat roles also there can be women. Why not have a complete women team, battalion of women.

So the question of women officers leading a men’s team, if there is question of initial resistance to it, can also be taken care of,” he said.

Parrikar said that sometime in future, he will sit with the chiefs of all forces.

“I don’t understand why we can’t place women on ships. At this stage I will not support a submarine operation because submarines are designed for unigender or one area for staff. There are no separate areas for women.

“But ships can be modified and new ships can be designed to have facilities for women,” he said adding that there is also a question of taking women officers through NDA.

Dhaka bloodbath

here has been a spate of violent killings in Bangladesh during the recent years and each incident only heightens the fear that the neighbour’s democracy appears to be under threat from elements who want to plunge the country into a severe crisis and exploit the situation. Amid the government crackdown, groups determined to convert Bangladesh into an Islamic nation with a shariah legal system have increasingly targeted publishers and secular bloggers, four of whom were murdered last year. Friday night’s bloodbath inside a popular restaurant usually frequented by expatriates in a high-security diplomatic enclave, that left 20 foreigners including an Indian dead, has sent a chilling reminder that Bangladesh continues to churn within. The gruesome and bloody disfigurement of the victims, whose throats were slit and then hacked to death, was too horrific a sight.

Contrary to earlier belief, that the bloody killing was the handiwork of the ISI, another shock was in store, when Bangladesh authorities disclosed, that a local terror group known in intelligence circles as the Ansarullah Bangla Team was involved. Bangladesh home minister Asaduzzaman Khan blamed “homegrown” Islamist terrorists and Pakistan’s spy agency ISI for the country’s worst terror attack in which 20 hostages were hacked to death. Bangladesh authorities identified the attackers as- Rohan Imitiaz, Nibras Alam and Mir Sabih Mubashir. The authorities disclosed that all three attended wellknown schools like Scholastica, and North South University in Dhaka. What sets the Ansarullah Bangla Team apart is its cadre of young, educated and highly-motivated recruits with foreign linkages, considered by security analysts to be the new generation of fundamentalists. The group is active on social media, with a prominent page on Facebook.

The young, educated and highly impressionable youths are being targeted by the Ansarullah Bangla Team and the Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh as recruits. The Ansarullah Bangla Team is said to be inspired by the Al Qaeda and is currently associated with the jihadist group. According to media reports, the Ansarullah Bangla Team is believed to be headed by a radicalised Bangladeshi Army officer, Major Syed Ziaul Haque, a graduate of the Bangladesh Military Academy, who went into hiding after being accused of planning a coup against Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina in January 2012. However Islamic State ISIS) has claimed responsibility for the killing of the hostages, mostly foreigners, and two police officers during an 11-hour siege that ended Saturday after the army stormed the Holey Artisan Bakery popular with expats in the diplomatic zone here, killing six attackers and capturing one alive. The terrorist who was captured alive by the Bangladeshi Army will prove to be very crucial for the investigation. There have been a string of attacks on Shia community, Christian and Hindu priests and foreigners across Bangladesh. However, the Sheikh Hasina government still sticks to its view that IS militants are not involved in any of these attacks. Since Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina came to power in 2009, she has been cracking down on militant and terrorist groups in Bangladesh, a Muslim-majority country of 160 million people. India has to fully back the Sheikh Hasina government in its efforts to stamp out terror cells from that country because it matters especially in the sensitive north east region.

DailyDevotion One of God’s Great “Don’ts” Do not fret— it only causes harm. —Psalm 37:8 Fretting means getting ourselves “out of joint” mentally or spiritually. It is one thing to say, “Do not fret,” but something very different to have such a nature that you find yourself unable to fret. It’s easy to say, “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him” (Psalm 37:7) until our own little world is turned upside down and we are forced to live in confusion and agony like so many other people. Is it possible to “rest in the Lord” then? If this “Do not” doesn’t work there, then it will not work anywhere. This “Do not” must work during our days of difficulty and uncertainty, as well as our peaceful days, or it will never work. And if it will not work in your particular case, it will not work for anyone else. Resting in the Lord is not dependent on your external circumstances at all, but on your relationship with God Himself.

Worrying always results in sin. We tend to think that a little anxiety and worry are simply an indication of how wise we really are, yet it is actually a much better indication of just how wicked we are. Fretting rises from our determination to have our own way. Our Lord never worried and was never anxious, because His purpose was never to accomplish His own plans but to fulfill God’s plans. Fretting is wickedness for a child of God. Have you been propping up that foolish soul of yours with the idea that your circumstances are too much for God to handle? Set all your opinions and speculations aside and “abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1). Deliberately tell God that you will not fret about whatever concerns you.

All our fretting and worrying is caused by planning without God.

wenty five years ago I wrote a quiz book called Wise and Wonderful published by Rupa. The idea was to get people familiar with the millions of wonderful things animals could do.

So many years later I continue to be fascinated by their abilities.

Human beings are all the same. The same three or four colours and shades between. The same bodies and organs, the same actions and reactions.

Animals on the other hand are so exciting. Hundreds of colours, so many types of bodies, so many super powers.

Hairy frogs break their bones and push them out through their toes to make claws. The “hair”are actually external gills full of arteries.

The frog can make its own retractable claws by breaking his toe-bones and jabbing them through his skin. Apparently the claws later retract passively, while the damaged tissue is regenerated.

Pit vipers, as well as some pythons and boas, can sense the body heat of their prey from several feet away. Small pit organs on the snakes’ faces detect infrared radiation. Nerves connect the pit organs to the brain’s somatosensorysystem, which processes the sense of touch, allowing them to create

a thermal profile of a nearby mouse for example.

Whereas we humans have only three colour-receptive cones in our eyes — for red, blue, and green — the mantis shrimp has a set of 16! This little crustacean can see dozens of colours we have no name for, which perhaps explains why the shrimp itself is decked out in such radiant hues.

Pistol shrimp has a claw that snaps shut so quickly it creates a cavitation bubble almost as hot as the surface of the sun.

When it collapses, the bang can reach 218 decibels.

Dragon millipedes can shootcyanide at their predators.

When threatened, sea cucumbers have a whole range of defense mechanisms. Some discharge sticky threads, others shoot vital organs out of their behinds at the enemy and escape (the organs quickly regenerate). But the best way to escape is to go in hiding, and sea cucumbers can almost liquefy their bodies, shapeshifting themselves into tiny spaces, and evade predators by ejecting their guts out of their rear ends.

Dung beetles can pull over 1,000 times their body weight. We have difficulty picking up even one tenth of our own weight.

Geckos can walk up windows, thanks to electrostatic

Nagaland Post, Dimapur tuesday, July 5, 2016

Fascinated by their abilities forces between thousands of tiny hairs on their feet and the surface. Every square millimetre of a geckos footpads contains 14,000 tiny hairs, each of which branches into around 500 little tiny spatulae so small that they are below the wavelength of visible light.

Using these invisible, atomic micro-micro-microfibers, geckos are able to stick to almost every known surface.

The grip is so strong that if a gecko used all of its gripping power at once, it could hold aloft 130 kg.

Lyrebirds can imitate any sound they hear, including camera shutters,chainsaws, and car alarms.

The horned lizard can shoot blood from its eyes.

Froghoppers are leaf sucking insects which defend themselves by frothing at the mouth and bleeding stinky goop out of their abdomens.

They are the most spectacular jumpers in the entire world.

They can leap about the same distance as fleas(200 times their body length.) Their explosive power comes from a coil of energy-storing protein that acts somewhat like a spring.

Located in the flea’s thorax, the spring transfers energy down through the flea’s legs, until it reaches and compresses the bug’s toes. This propels the flea to jump in one bound, but its performance is much more impressive given that it is 60 times heavier. The froghopper’s initial speed is about 4 meters/second, which exposes the garden bug to over 400 gs of acceleration!

They’ve also evolved a fake head on their rear ends to fool predators.

Bacteria have the most amazing abilities – if we had to look for smart aliens visiting earth, they would probably come in the form of bacteria.

Are human beings the dominant life forms of the Earth or are bacteria? Each species has its own incredible abilities, but

Post-mortem

Condolence message for late Isak Chishi Swu by Th. Muivah

O

ur chairman Isak Chishi Swu left us to be with the Lord on June 28, 2016 and it is too much of a pain for me because I have known him and we stood together for all these 52 years. I know that through all these years of struggle together God has a purpose for both of us.

I thank the Lord almighty for giving us a leader in the person of Isak Chishi Swu from Chishilimi village in Pughoboto sub-division of present Nagaland. He left behind an honourable history for the Naga people and the legacy he left behind will exist till the end of this world.

We worked together and took decisive decision on all important issues by making serious analysis into any problems we faced. We could understand each other and he had the wisdom to understand me and I know that God helped us. I can say that he was a right leader at the right time.

My friend, Isak Chishi Swu was a God fearing person and he never failed to acknowledge the necessity of God’s intervention in our struggle. Together, throughout the struggle we realized the purpose of God. We were united in one single mission, the fear of the Lord and that Nagaland will be for Christ.

After the demise of many good Naga leaders he became our leader.

Situation changed and he was chosen as God knew who he was. During his leadership God changed the hearts and minds of the Indian leadership when they declared that military solution to the Naga issue is not possible, it is political and must be resolved through political dialogue.

From shouting condescending statement of crushing the Nagas in a day towards seeking political solution, this fundamental change in policy was comparable to the days of Moses when

T

he final bell tolls for Isak Chishi Swu precisely at 12 hours 11minutes 28 seconds after midday declaring his last triumphant moment on earth. He had come into this world empty handed and departed empty handed like every other great mortals before him, leaving behind a brokenhearted family as it always does... and in the process another memorable chapter of a volatile unsettled Naga History gently closed on 28th June 2016 with him. Ino Isak Chishi Swu, arguably a legendary colossal Naga icon journeyed on to his afterlife as predestined by the Almighty God on whom he so unwaveringly anchored his faith throughout his humble life. Granted, no force on earth can stem the inevitable tide of change...nevertheless an overwhelming atmosphere of uncertainty now envelops every anxious mind in the absence of a delicate tribal balance that squarely rested on his aging shoulders within his organization and beyond. The worrisome fact that his is a fast fading committed generation being replaced by an indifferent one that looks at all the sacrifices made by Naga fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters from every tribe during the inhuman mid nineteen-fifties and sixties like it was just another fairy tale... is a serious cause for concern.

Nevertheless let us remind ourselves once more and never forget that Naga history was written with sacrifices such as these: In 1968, Ino Isak Chishi

Pharaoh’s heart was changed by God to grant freedom to the Israelites. Our joint strategy and calculation to bring about such changes bore fruit. We praise God and we will give Him the glory and honour.

And throughout the political negotiation we understood together that the history of the Naga people must be recognized as the Nagas were not lost people. We agreed that we will not submit and surrender our history to India at the negotiating table. God helped us again and it was during his leadership that the government of India recognized the “unique history and situation” of the Nagas by the Amsterdam Joint Committee on July 11, 2002. It was the first ever official recognition of our history and situation. The recognition acknowledges the fact that the Nagas were never a part of Indian Union either by conquest of the Indian armed forces or by the consent of the Naga people and the situation was also unique because it was created by India when they sent thousands of government troops to the Naga areas that led to unaccountable human right violations including torture, rape, killings, burning down of Naga villages.

Subsequently, after a lengthy negotiation on the 3rd of August, 2015 the “Framework Agreement” was signed between the GoI and the NSCN in the presence of the prime minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi and many other important dignitaries of the government of India. Chairman Isak Chishi Swu gave his signature to the “Framework Agreement”. The GoI reaffirmed the recognition of the unique history and situation of the Nagas and also recognized the universal principle that sovereignty lies with the Naga people. Both the parties also agreed that in the spirit of mutual respect they will

share sovereign power with each other and co-exist peacefully. We praise the Indian leadership and the Nagas must appreciate them for their wisdom and statesmanship.

Countrymen, these significant steps were achieved during chairman Isak Chishi Swu’s leadership. He was steadfast for the Naga cause and the right of the Naga people. I want the Naga people to understand this on this solemn occasion of his untimely death. It is beyond our control, but God is there and He will lead us through. We are proud of our leader Isak Chishi Swu. Our leader Isak Chishi Swu before he left to be with the Lord declared that we must forgive each other. He appealed to the Naga people for forgiveness of each other because deep in his heart he loved the Naga people and our cause. He knew that there was a danger of self-destruction, so he took the issue of forgiveness very seriously.

At this juncture I also take the opportunity of thanking the Naga people in general both from the east and the west and elsewhere, people of Assam, Meities, Zomis, Boros and others for showing your solidarity to the Naga people after the untimely demise of our chairman Isak Chishi Swu. We are one if we value the principle of supporting each other to the end. We are with you till the end.

Our leader Isak Chishi Swu is not here with us but the best opportunity is still there before us, to make the right stand and to make the right choice as our leader had made in his life time.

The Naga people and also the Sumi people in particular must praise God that he produced one of our finest leaders and in whose lifetime so much had been achieved for the Naga nation.

Kuknalim.

A colossal Naga icon

Swu was assigned a mission to China as a Special Envoy to plead for the Naga cause.

Imagine, prayerfully placing his fate solely in the able hand of God to guide him through the labyrinth of impenetrable, inhospitable, unchartered jungles without a compass, took some faith of a very special kind which, to mere mortals, would have been written off as an absolutely foolhardy escapade bordering on stupidity. Both Ino Isak and Ino Th. Muivah separately traversed the entire Naga and Myanmar territories spending unimaginable months of gruelling trekking. They battled against nature and enemies every step of the way before finally reaching their destination ‘China’ in 1968.

At a nascent struggling stage of the Naga political movement, drawing China’s favourable disposition towards the Nagas was a monumental achievement by any stretch of imagination.

But to salvage this, they went through indescribable ordeals of being ambushed and shot at, at regular intervals both by the Indian and the Myanmar Armies. Both of them, along with their committed band of brothers and sisters in-arms braved dangers of all description losing more than 80% of their comrades, who started out together and perished in the hands of the enemies and nature along the long torturous way. Heartrending stories abound... of patriotism and camaraderie faced by each of them along the testing road, ex-

periencing astounding miracles of God all throughout their journey, be it at the time of coming face to face with the enemies in mortal combat or facing weeks of starvation hopelessly lost in a nowhere jungles, all for a cause they firmly believed in...”Freedom for the Nagas”. Those were the early years of innocence when “Nagaland for Christ” did mean something real.

Even nature acknowledged the passing of a great soul the same day with a rainbow over Chishilimi sky... his native birthplace... and continued the amazing phenomena of a rainbow encircling the sun in the subsequent couple of days before his mortal remains was interred. The Nagas of all shapes and sizes, young and old representing all Naga Tribes from all Naga inhabited areas, diligently converged at Agri Expo, Dimapur, on 30th June 2016 creating a kaleidoscopic hue of ethnic colour... silently filling the solemn arena in their thousands that pictured a Naga rainbow of unity. Even if for a transient moment the factions... NSCN (U); NSCN (R); NNC... buried their differences and paid glowing tributes to a departed leader that they each had respected in their own intimate way. A raw uncontaminated sentiment was expressed when Ino Muivah stood beside his friend’s coffin and brokenheartedly said that brother Isak was his soul mate these past fifty years+ wading through thick and thin, making

the terrifying “thought control” talents of the Toxoplasma gondii protozoa are amazing.

It commonly infects rats and then alters their brains so that the rodent host seeks out its natural predator, cats. This is because T. gondii can only complete its reproductive cycle in feline intestines. So the rat offers himself to be eaten, or gets eaten, and the T. gondii parasites complete their lives.

This protozoa also infects humans and I wonder how much of our activities come from their orders.

The Mulu Flying frog, whose males grow to just 3.5cm, has bright green skin at night but changes colour to display a brown hue during the day. Its eyes follow suit to change colour as well. And while the minute animal may not fly with the birds, it uses its webbed feet and aerodynamic flaps of skin on the arms and legs to glide from tree to tree.

hammer and makes dents in rocky surfaces which the limpet can inhabit. (Imagine using your tongue like a hammer.)

The limpet’s teeth are the strongest biological material known to man and they allow the limpet to constantly chew rocks without any damage.

Tardigrades, also known as water bears or moss piglets, are water-dwelling, eightlegged, segmented micro-animals which, under a microscope, look like little bears.

They thrive in any kind of extreme environments - freezing temperatures as low as -200 C (-328 F), scorching temperatures up to 150 C (302 F), outer space, no food or water for over a century, ionizing radiation up to 570,000 roentgens (a dose of just 500 roentgens would kill you), solar radiation, gamma radiation, ultraviolet radiation, high salinity and lack of oxygen.

The loudest animal on Earth, relative to its body size, is the water boatman, an aquatic insect found in fresh or brackish water throughout the world that paddles along the water surface with oar-like hind legs. Singing songs of love from its perch on a river bottom, a male boatman can be as loud as an orchestra.

Their resulting melodies can reach 100 decibels and can be heard through the water by people walking along the riverbank.

The mystic rainbow in the woods of Chishilimi

T

he rationalists would argue that a rainbow is nothing but a coincidence of nature.

But every myth, legend and story of a nation need not always pass the test of scientific accuracy.

A mystic rainbow appeared at Chishilimi in the evening of 28th June, 2016, when the news of the demise of the mighty Naga national leader, Assu Isak Chishi Swu, Chairman of the NSCN (I-M), reached the hills of the great Naga nation. A halo of rainbow encircling around the sun unusually appeared again above Dimapur Airport as the special chartered flight carrying the mortal remains of the veteran nationalist was about to land on 30th June, 2016 and the rainbow appeared for the third consecutive day till the mortal remains of the great leader was finally laid to rest on 2nd July, 2016.

To a meteorologist, a rainbow is a phenomenon caused by reflection, refraction and dispersion of light in water droplets. But to the Nagas, a rainbow is more than its scientific explanation and the Nagas have their own legends and stories to tell. Nagas have a firm believe rooted in Christianity that the tricolour rainbow in their national flag is given by the Almighty and is not a mere idea originated from mundane imagination.

Nagas believed for a reason that rainbow has a mystical connection with the last rites of their great nationalist leaders. On the 10th of May, 1990, when the mortal remains of A.Z. Phizo was brought back to Dimapur from London, Nagas were awestruck by

a sudden appearance of rainbow across Dimapur Airport and it reportedly appeared not less than ten times during the condolence and funeral services of the great Naga nationalist.

The first Naga national flag was woven by Mrs. Lothong and Mrs. Keshenle and it was first hoisted at Oking Parashen, near Sendenyu village, Rengma Region, Nagaland, when the Federal Government of Nagaland (FGN) was formed on 22nd March, 1956.

In the month of May, 1946, A.Z. Phizo upon entering Kohima town on his return from Rangoon was suddenly struck by a rainbow stretching across Kohima town.

A.Z. Phizo had an unusual vision that it was a sign from God. A.Z. Phizo resolved to choose the rainbow as the emblem of the Naga national flag to symbolize that “Nagas are the children of God”.

Not that rainbows are unusual, but that there was always an unseen force of divine revelation. In the year 1955, when the Naga national leaders were deliberating on the design and inscription of rainbow on the Naga national flag at Oking Parashen, the Naga national leaders were awestruck by a sudden appearance of rainbow right in front of them, whereat the Naga national leaders unanimously proclaimed, “It is a sign that God is giving us this rainbow to inscribe on our national flag”.

(To be concluded) Sira Kharay, Advocate, Chirag Delhi, New Delhi

An ode to Mrs Isak Chishi Swu

every critical decision together without betraying the trust of each other. The Nagas bid a genuinely heartfelt farewell to Isak Chishi Swu for the very last time with calm dignity and honour.

At Chishilimi too, nature shared its grief with thousands of mourners with a bright pleasant day throughout the formal function followed by a short burst of shower immediately after the burial formality was completed on the evening of 2nd July 2016. God manifested with blatant clarity through nature that even as mortals mourned Isak Chishi Swu’s departure...Heavens rejoiced.

History will remember him kindly as he leaves behind an honourable legacy of peace towards all and malice towards none for the emulation of the present generation and the ones to come, worthy of praise and respect. Now that you are upstairs ...entreat with your God to let your brothers -in -arms left behind learn that egoistic self-perpetuation is a futile exercise and that each of them will depart planet earth in their own unknown time empty handed as they came...as you did. This is an opportune time to work as equals and leave behind a lasting peace as a final gift to the people that they profess to serve. Farewell dear Elder Brother...you truly were a colossal Naga icon.

Khekiye K. Sema IAS (Rtd), Upper Forest Colony, Kohima, (kksema@gmail.com)

Mourn not, O lady of Virtue For Isak Chishi Swu is the harbinger of the gospel To the darkest part of the earth; Eastern Nagalim, blessed is he who saves the souls He who has taken the Nagas beyond Jordan He fought the good fight He has finished the race and kept the faith Cry not, O lady of virtue For life is beyond the grave Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth Kuknalim Medem Jamir, former steering committee member NSCN (I-M)

Reader’s Post

To the CE (Power) Sir,

The public of Khophailak colony, Saksi NAP sector ward 13, Tuensang town are facing untold hardships due to erratic power supply since March 19, 2016, where more than 16 villages are also affected. Due to this we are left out completely in darkness for mor than 4 months. It had lodged many complaints from villages and unions to the authority but the problem remains unaddressed. Even as genuine consumers, the people of Khophailak colony remains as mute spectators only instead of writing to the department about our plight. Hence we remind to the department not to consider the people as “ignorant”. So without beating around the bush we would like to bring forward our point straight. That sir, people of this world know that almost all the modern machines and electronic gadgets require electricity for their functioning. So please, undertake the responsibility being put on the shoulder to reduce its losses.

Therefore we urge the concerned department (power) to take up the matter on top most priority than to earn the ire of the public mob fury.

Nochi Chang, president and T. T. Shiu, general secretary, Khophailak colony union

SC refers to another bench plea against NEET Ordinance ing a Supreme Court order which said the NEET will be held on July 24, the plea said.

6.5 lakh students have already taken the first phase of NEET test on May 1. The next phase of the exam is scheduled for July 24.

The ordinance provided that students of state government boards will not have to sit for NEET on July 24 and they will have to become part of the uniform entrance exam from the next academic session.

The exam will be applicable for those applying for central government and private management institutions under the management quota.

The apex court had on May 9 rejected pleas of state governments and minority institutions to allow them to hold separate entrance exams for MBBS and BDS courses for 2016-17, saying only NEET provides for conducting such test for admission to these courses. The top court had approved the schedule put before it by the Centre, CBSE and Medical Medical Council of India (MCI) for treating All India Pre-Medical Test (AIPMT) fixed for May 1 as NEET-1.

NEW DELHI, JUL 4 (PTI): At least 31 cases of dengue have been reported in the national capital this year with nearly half of them in the month of June, according to a municipal report released Monday.

Three fresh cases of the vector-borne disease have been reported till July 2.

While May had witnessed six cases, June recorded 15, it said.

Twenty-eight cases were reported till June 27. Last year, the city saw a staggering 15,867 dengue cases, the worst in 20 years with the disease claiming 60 lives, as per municipal reports.

In 1996, a severe outbreak of dengue had occurred in Delhi wherein about 10,252 cases and 423 deaths were reported.

In 2010, besides over 6,200 cases, only eight deaths were officially reported. The Commonwealth Games were held that year and massive construction works in the city was a major reason behind the spread of the disease.

This year, dengue cases have been reported rather early and relatively in larger numbers. Last year only six cases were reported in June, while July registered 36.

RELIANCE COACHING INSTITUTE

CHANDIGARH, JUL 4 (PTI): AAP MLA Naresh Yadav, who has been booked and summoned in connection with the alleged June 24 Malerkotla sacrilege incident, along with party members today met the Punjab Police chief who assured them of “fair and impartial” probe. The AAP delegation, led by party’s Punjab in-charge Sanjay Singh, met Director General of Police (DGP) Suresh Arora at his office here after which Yadav said he was ready to join the probe.

“We have told the DGP that we came to Chandigarh as soon as we came to know about the case. We are ready to join the investigation,” Yadav told reporters after the meeting. “We have also clearly told the DGP that if they find any evidence against me regarding sacrilege incident, they can hang me,” he said.

The Punjab Police chief assured the AAP delegation that “free, fair and impartial” investigation would be carried out into the matter.

Yadav, AAP MLA from Mehrauli, had been booked in connection with alleged sacrilege incident after one of the accused claimed that he had acted at the behest of the legislator. The MLA was booked under various sec-

Thirteen cases were reported till May and the total number of cases so far in the city is thus 31, a senior civic official said.

No case has been reported from any of the zones under the North Delhi Municipal Corporation while Najafgarh Zone of SDMC has recorded two cases and West and Central Zones a case each, said a senior official of SDMC, which compiles dengue report on behalf of all the civic bodies in the city.

SDMC has reported four cases overall while East Delhi Municipal Corporation has recorded one.

Of the total number of cases this year, three were reported from areas outside the jurisdiction of the three municipal corporations.

While nine cases were reported from Uttar Pradesh, one of those diagnosed with the disease came from Haryana, and 13 of them came from other states.

The number of houses where breeding of mosquitoes were found are –- 7,853 (NDMC), 21,764 (SDMC) and 3,138 (EDMC). And, nu m b e r o f p r o s e c u t i o n launched respectively in these areas were -- 376, 976 and 132, the report said.

“The normal democratic legislative process involves the people’s representatives in the two Houses openly enacting a law after full consideration and discussion, an ordinance seeks to circumvent this procedure for it is drafted secretly in government chambers and is promulgated without an open discussion and hence it becomes even more pertinent that the ordinance-making power is not invoked lightly but only when absolutely necessary to do so, and the situation cannot be otherwise met effectively,” it said.

“The present ordinance is a completely contradictory stand by the respondent (Centre) within a span of 4 weeks, this is also a belated stage as the examination itself is to be scheduled within the next 8 weeks as per the Schedule given by the Respondent Union itself and the discriminating ordinance further creates confusion amongst students.”

The ordinance keeps state boards out of the ambit of uniform medical entrance examination NEET for the present academic session.

NEW DELHI, JUL 4 (PTI): Supreme Court Monday referred to another bench a plea seeking quashing of a recentlypromulgated ordinance which allows states to continue with their separate entrance tests for MBBS and BDS courses, besides uniform medical entrance test NEET for academic year 2016-17. “This (plea) will go to the bench (headed by Justice A R Dave) which is hearing the related matter,” a bench comprising Chief Justice T S Thakur and Justice D Y Chandrachud said.

The plea was filed in May end by Indore-based doctor Anand Rai who also claims to be a whistle blower in the Vyapam scam. Besides seeking quashing of the ordinance which got Presidential assent on May 24, the plea has also sought a stay on its operation as an interim relief. Referring to Centre’s stand to support the single-window National Eligibility and Entrance Test (NEET) for admissions, the plea said the government has now taken a “complete Uturn” which shows “malafides and ill intent towards the process of admission of students who shall suffer the most”.

New Delhi, Jul 4 (PTI): A whopping 91% of the airlines globally are planning to invest in cyber security programmes over the next three years, a survey conducted by airline solutions and technology provider SITA has said.

The SITA Airline IT Trends 2016 Survey on the world’s top 200 airlines has inferred “that the cyber security in airlines is progressing”.

Three years ago, 47% of the airlines had said that they were making advanced preparations to manage cyber risks.

Today, this figure has nearly doubled to 91%, it added.

“Airlines are investing in areas which will promote a connected world of travel for the benefit of passengers and the workforce,” SITA Director, Market Insight, Nigel Pickford said. SITA sees new priorities attracting more investment, with cyber security and electronic flight bag solutions coming to the fore in this year’s research, he added.

The focus on cyber security also reflects the move to the ‘Internet of Things’(IoT), in which a vast number of physical objects will become connected to the internet, thus

India Post plans to roll out 10,000 ATMs and 20,000 micro ATMs across the country by the end of this year.

India Post payments bank will primarily target unbanked and under-banked customers in rural, semi-rural and remote areas, with a focus on providing simple deposit products and money remittance services.

The Union Cabinet last month cleared a proposal to set up India Post payments bank with a corpus of Rs 800 crore.

Payments banks can accept deposits (initially up to Rs 1 lakh per individual), offer Internet banking, facilitate money transfers and sell insurance and mutual funds by piggy-backing on existing retail or other networks.

Besides, they can issue ATM/ debit cards, but not credit cards.

The Postal payments bank, which will be run by Chief Executive Officer, will be professionally managed and there will be a officials from Department of Posts, Department of Expenditure and Department of Economic Services etc on its board.

operationalise the Post Bank licence and ultimately it would get merged suitably with the Post Bank.

DoP has 28,000 departmental post offices and 1.50 lakh rural post offices across the country.

The Postal Department is proactively setting up ATMs and micro ATMs in its rural post offices so as to tap its wide network for financial inclusion.

“Reserve Bank of India (RBI) said this separate vertical of the Postal department is open for banking regulation. The RBI is favourably considering the option to provide interoperability,” the official said.

“This will help in moving towards a less cash economy.

Post Office has its branches even in the remotest areas where banking mitras or business correspondents cannot reach. Interoperability will allow leveraging the reach of Postal department,” the official added.

New Delhi, Jul 4 (PTI): India Post, the world’s largest mail delivery network, is carving out a separate vertical to manage banking services, a move that will help it win RBI nod for interoperability of its ATMs with those of PSU banks.

India Posts, which had last year won a licence to operate a payment bank, has not been able to move much on starting operations.

“We wanted interoperability of the ATMs of Post Offices with other banks. RBI said we can allow it only if Post offices create a separate bank vertical because RBI has jurisdiction over only banks.

The Postal department has taken a positive approach and created a separate vertical,” a finance ministry official said.

The vertical will be based out of Bengaluru.

Interoperability will allow individuals to transfer money from their Post Office account to their accounts in any bank. Besides, the Post Office ATMs can be used for withdrawal of money from the bank accounts.

The official, further, said the vertical will be created to

Mumbai, Jul 4 (PTI): Corn prices have shown weakness during last week in the futures as well as the spot markets on reports of the government allowing imports, according to the US Grains Council (USGC).

“The actual users have been urging the government to allow import of maize as the prices are high as the average delivered prices reached Rs 18,500 per tonne in some centres,” USGC Representative for India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, Amit Sachdev said.

“There has been some agreement that tariff-rate quota (TRQ) may be allocated to state-run trading company PEC to import 500,000 tonne of maize and this has led to some stability in the market and prices did drop in the futures as well as the spot markets,” Sachdev added.

However, the drop in price was not much (0.46 per cent) to Rs 15,655 per tonne and this could be temporary correction.

In Nizamabad prices were up by 2.59 per cent to Rs 17,328 per tonne, in Karimnagar up 2.66 per cent to Rs 17,366 per tonne, Sangli up 0.54 per cent to Rs 18,600 per tonne and Davangere down 0.14 per cent to Rs 17,650 per tonne.

Britain’s pro-Brexit voice quits as far-right party head London, Jul 4 (PTI): Nigel Farage, who campaigned for Britain to leave the European Union, today quit as the leader of the anti-immigrant UKIP party, saying he wanted his “life back” as he has fulfilled his political ambition of ‘Brexit’.

Farage, 52, said he has done his bit for the cause of Britain leaving the 28-member economic bloc.

“I have never been and never wanted to be a career politician,” said Farage, who was elected as a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for UK Independence Party in 1999.

“I now feel that I’ve done my bit, that I couldn’t possibly achieve more,” he told reporters. “I feel it’s right that I should now stand aside as leader of UKIP.” Farage, who led a separate grassroots campaign to convince voters of a ‘Brexit’, had made numerous speeches in the wake of the result to declare June 23 Britain’s “Independence Day.” He was at the heart of some of the biggest controversies during the campaign,

including an anti-immigration poster of refugees flocking to enter southern Europe, which was dubbed as a “vile” by both the ‘Remain’ and ‘Leave’ camps.

He has quit as UKIP leader twice before - in 2009 over party infighting and in 2015 after failing to become an MP. But on both occasions decided to stay.

He, however, insisted today that “I won’t be changing my mind again, I promise you”.

“The victor y for the ‘Leave’ side in the referendum means that my political ambition has been achieved,” he said.

“During the referendum campaign, I said ‘I want my country back’... now I want my life back, and it begins right now.”

He said UKIP was instrumental in winning the referendum for the Leave campaign, championing the issue of immigration, and insisted it would continue as a party in its current form.

from the British government” when it comes to negotiating Brexit with the economic bloc, the anti-immigrant party leader said.

He said he now wants a cross party team to negotiate the UK’s exit from Brussels but he said the most important thing was that the team knows how to win the best deal.

“An absolute priority is to bring in business people,” he added.

Farage has had two stints as leader of the Eurosceptic party since 2006.

its case to join the NSG last month, the Global Times, part of ruling Communist Party of China (CPC) publications, carried a number of articles including a hard hitting editorial claiming that China’s stand is “morally legitimate” and the West has “spoiled” India.

Continuing to justify China’s stand to block New Delhi’s bid, today’s article harped on the often repeated argument of signing the NPT being a must for India to join the NSG and that consensus is required for entry of new members.

“India needs to perceive China objectively. Joining the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) is a must for any country seeking NSG membership, but India is not a party to the NPT,” the article said.

“The only exception is if India can obtain consent from all 48-NSG members, but several countries apart from China hold reservations in this regard.

India better put more efforts into figuring out how to obtain international trust rather than misinterpreting and defaming China,” it said.

Quoting Political scientist Zheng Yongnian who stated that that, “China’s bilateral relationship with India is second only to the Sino-US relationship,” it said ties with China are of great significance to India as well. “The best option is for China and India to work together to boost their economic and trade ties. Only by seeking common development between China and India can the two build a new international order and form an Asian century,” it said.

Wa s h i n g to n, J u l 4 (PTI): The US has offered immediate assistance of its law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, to probe Bangladesh’s worst terror attack in which 22 people were brutally slaughtered by suspected ISIS militants.

The assistance was offered as Secretary of State John Kerry called Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday.

“The Secretary encouraged the government of Bangladesh to conduct its investigation in accordance with the highest international standards and offered immediate assistance from US law enforcement, including the FBI,” State Department spokesperson John Kirby said.

The offer came in the wake of the “outrageous attack” on the Holey Artisan restaurant in Dhaka’s highsecurity diplomatic zone, he said.

During the call, Kerry condoled the loss of innocent lives at the hands of terrorists “who threaten the United States, Bangladesh and the international community”.

“He re-affirmed US support for Bangladesh’s efforts to bring those responsible for planning and conducting the attacks to justice as well as to prevent future attacks,” Kirby said. Twenty hostages, including Indian girl Tarishi Jain, were hacked to death by terrorists inside the cafe popular with expats in the diplomatic zone before commandos launched an assault, killing six attackers and capturing one alive.

Prakash Javadekar Berlin, Jul 4 (PTI): India today underlined the need for countries to take pre-2020 climate actions to curb emissions and sought cooperation among countries in finance and technology sectors to tackle climate change.

“Cooperation is the key for taking (climate) actions.

Every country is at a different stage of development. We need cooperation. We have the will to act,” said Environment Minister Prakash Javadekar.

Javadekar said that India has already started the process of ratification of Paris Climate agreement and even during the recent meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Barack Obama, both emphasised that the process should be completed

at the earliest.

“But we do not have the wherewithal to do it, not only in terms of finances, but particularly in terms of technology. When we talk of technology, Germany is most reliable name in many fields and therefore, there is finance, technology and mutual cooperation and walking the talk,” Javadekar said at a joint press conference with German Minister Barbara Hendricks at the Seventh St Petersburg Dialogue in Berlin.

Since 2010, the annual dialogue has provided the opportunity for countries to engage in an informal exchange of experiences on international climate policy.

Javadekar said that on October 5 last year, Modi and German Chancellor Angela Markel issued a joint statement which is the “basis” of India-Germany partnership programme.

In a statement during the joint press briefing with Chancellor Merkel, Prime Minister Modi had said that he admired Merkel’s leadership in combating climate change and both the countries had agreed on an India-Germany Climate and Renewable Alliance with a long term vision and a comprehensive agenda of combating climate change.

Dhaka, Jul 4 (PTI): Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today led the nation in mourning the 22 Dhaka siege victims, including an Indian girl, at a solemn ceremony here as the country paid a tearful homage to those killed in the worst terror attack on its soil.

Diplomats, politicians and people from across the different strata of society paid tributes and placed wreaths during the ceremony at the Bangladesh Army Stadium in Dhaka cantonment which drew

the foreigners killed.

Autopsy on the bodies had been conducted earlier at the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in Dhaka.

Of those killed, 18 were foreigners -- nine Italians, 7 Japanese, one American of Bangladeshi-origin and an Indian, 19-year-old Tarishi Jain, were among those killed. Two other Bangladeshis were also among the hostages slaughtered. Indian High Commissioner to Bangladesh, Harsh Vardhan Shringla, who was present at the ceremony, said, “I mentioned to the PM (Hasina) that I have just been to the airport to see off our daughter, Tarishi.” “She (Tarishi) had just left Bangladesh and gone back home with her parents and the PM (Hasina) told me that she is deeply distraught and she wanted me to convey condolences to our Prime Minister (Narendra Modi), External Affairs Minister (Sushma Swaraj) and she said that we will be resolute in the fight against terror.

Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the killing of the hostages, mostly foreigners, and two police officers during the 12-hour siege that ended on Saturday after the army stormed the Holey Artisan Bakery, killing six attackers and capturing one alive. However, Bangladesh has blamed “homegrown” Islamist terrorists and Pakistan’s spy agency ISI for the country’s worst terror attack, ruling out the role of the Islamic State. Dhaka attack: Hostages killed within 20 minutes after assault.

Beijing, Jul 4 (PTI): Criticising the strong reactions from India over China blocking its bid to enter NSG, a state-run daily today said India is “still stuck” in the 1962 war mindset as it called for a more objective evaluation of Beijing’s stand.

“The Indian public seems to be having a hard time accepting the outcome of the Seoul plenary meeting of Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) late last month after India failed to gain entry into NSG,” an oped-page article in Global Times said.

“Many Indian media (outlets) put the blame on China alone, accusing China’s anti-India and pro-Pakistan motives behind its opposition.

Some activists even took to the streets in protest against China and Chinese products and some observers said the incident would freeze the China-India relationship,” the article titled ‘China, India should drop obsolete view for cooperation’ said.

The article asserted that “India’s precautions” against China cannot be clearer.

The country seems to be “still stuck” in the shadow of the war with China in the 1960s and many still hold on to the “obsolete geopolitical view” that China does not want to see India’s rise, it said.

“However, New Delhi may have misunderstood Beijing, which can make a big difference in its strategic decisions. In fact, China no longer looks at India simply from a political perspective, but far more from an economic one,” the article said.

atthew McConaughey is to become a university lecturer at University Of Texas in Austin, Texas.

The 15-week course to 30 students starts this autumn and sees The Hunger Games director Gary Ross as McConaughey’s joint lecturer.

The course, ‘Advanced Producing: Script To Screen’, will teach students about how to practically see a film script through to getting it made and all other areas of film production. The lessons will mainly be from pre-recorded videos made by McConaughey and Ross, but both will make one appearance each in class during the course.

The module is based around the pair’s new film Free State Of Jones, a Civil War drama written by Ross and starring McConaughey as a former Confederate soldier who falls in love with a former slave woman played by Gugu Mbatha-Raw. It’s due out in September, coinciding with the start of the University Of Texas course.

On Monday 4 July, every song played between 6pm-4am will be by acts signed to independent record labels.

An independent record label is one that works on its own without funding from major labels and is where lots of artists start their careers.

The station said the event is part of its commitment to support new British music and emerging artists.

Radio 1’s head of music, Chris Price, said: “The UK’s independent label community is one of the most vibrant in the world.

“We want to celebrate the part it plays in making Britain one of the most creative and respected music hubs on the planet.”

Unfortunate, insensitive: Aamir on Salman’s rape analogy

It’s a wake-up call: Adnan Sami on Amjad Sabri’s killing

ollywood superstar Aamir Khan Monday came out in the open branding Salman Khan’s controversial rape comments as “unfortunate” and “insensitive”.

“Well, I am going by the media reports because I was not present when this happened.

But as per the media reports (and) whatever I have read which quotes him as saying certain things... I feel what he said was rather unfortunate and rather insensitive. That’s what I feel,” Aamir said at the launch of ‘Dangal’ poster here.

Aamir, 51, said he has not spoken to Salman on the issue. When asked if he would give any advice to his “Andaz Apna Apna” co-star on this, the actor said, “Who am I to give advice?”

Salman, 50, had kicked up a storm when he compared himself to a raped woman while taking about the the physically gruelling shoot of “Sultan” during a group interview with journalists last month.

“While shooting, during those six hours, there’d be so much of lifting and thrusting on the ground involved. That was tough for me because if I was lifting, I’d have to lift the same 120-kilo guy 10 times for 10 different angles. And likewise, get thrown that many times on the ground.

“This act is not repeated that many times in the real

inger Adnan Sami says musicians irrespective of their religion, spread peace. And if they are being silenced by violence, it’s time to wake up to the “dilapidated state of affairs”.

Sami lent voice to “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” song “Bhar do jholi” -- a rendition of the famous qawwali of late Ghulam Farid Sabri, whose son Amjad Sabri was recently shot dead by unidentified assailants in Karachi, Pakistan.

Asked to comment on the incident, Sami told IANS here: “It’s a very tragic thing. Musicians, irrespective of the place they belong to, are messengers of peace. When you start to silence messengers of peace, then I think you need to wake up and smell the coffee because it’s staring you in the face.”

“It’s a dilapidated state of affairs,” added the “Kabhi toh nazar milao” hitmaker, who is of Pakistani descent.

He was here for the Mirchi Live in concert with Adnan Sami -- his first concert in four years in Delhi/NCR on Saturday.

ind Studioz, a movie production company based in Mumbai and owned by Rebecca Changkija tied up with International Production house (French/ Japan / Canada).

Describing the new venture as something worth waiting, Rebbecca said she had waited for such a development for some years.

She attributed her achievement to God, her team, family members and friends for their unconditional love and support.

After releasing her first movie, ‘The Dark Secrets Of Tonhi’, all over India in 2014,

she is coming up with her next release.

Rebecca has completed 5 movies and 1 was shot in Meghalaya, Cherrapunji and Assam in 2012 with the best support artist from 8 states and from Bollywood. She wants to promote the local artistes and Northeast through her movie. She says, “The truly great things in life are worth waiting for”.

His father Salim Khan took to Twitter to apologise on Salman’s behalf, saying it was a wrong analogy but the actor kept mum on the issue despite the demands for an apology by womens’ group and people on social media. When asked to react on Salman’s comments, Shah Rukh Khan had said he would not pass a judgement on someone else.

eing featured on the cover of TIME, dining with the Obamas and walking the Oscar red carpet, Priyanka Chopra has truly given ‘success’ a new definition with her achievements. On top of that, despite being busy with work in the West, she hasn’t lost touch with Bollywood and her audience in India.

Having worked in TV series ‘Quantico’ and her debut Hollywood film ‘Baywatch,’ Priyanka hasn’t just widened her reach but has also grown up as an actor and a person.

Her work experience abroad also made her realize as to how Indian films are looked upon at by the Western countries.

In an interview with Anupama Chopra, Priyanka revealed that Indian films are not really looked at with as much respect as they should and that they are like spoofs of Hollywood.

She revealed that after working in Hollywood, she denounced the word ‘Bollywood’ as she felt that Hindi film industry was not a me-too of Hollywood and an extremely prolific industry.

Actress Kangana Ranaut had described the rape analogy as a “horrible thing to say” but also said she was against pointing fingers. Director Anurag Kashyap had called it a “thoughtless and daft” thing to say.

Director Subhash Ghai, Sonu Sood, Nawazuddin Siddiqui were some of the people who defended Salman saying his intensions were not wrong.

When asked by the National Commission of Women to apologise for his remarks, the actor sent a lawyer’s letter in response.

independent labels in the UK, ranging from Hospital Records which specialises in drum and bass to hip hop orientated Big Dada which is home to Roots Manuva and Run the Jewels.

The likes of Adele, Arctic Monkeys and Foals are among some of the biggest names currently signed to indies - although it looks like Adele is set to leave current label XL for Sony.

Skepta and JME’s label Boy Better Know, which recently added Drake to its roster, is also independent.

Dizzee Rascal, Bloc Party and Radiohead all started out on indie labels with Wolf Alice and The 1975, who are both signed to Dirty Hit in the UK, being among the up and coming names following in their footsteps.

Part of the evening on Radio 1 will see Huw Stephens hosting an hour-long show focused on the world’s most influential independent labels.

The DJ explained independent labels are “a vital part” of what gets played on Radio 1.

“Their success stories are huge, and we’re super excited to highlight our constant support of the great work the independent labels do.”

Finding Dory holds off Tarzan and BFG at US box office

F

inding D o r y held firm at the top of the US box office despite competition from The BFG and The Legend of Tarzan.

It is the third week in a row that Pixar’s sequel to Finding Nemo has taken the number one spot.

The film took $41.9m (£31.5m) - narrowly beating its nearest competitor, The Legend of Tarzan, which took $38.1m (£28.7m).

In third place was scifi horror film The Purge: Election Year, which made $30.1m (£22.7m) in its opening weekend.

The estimated figures include predicted takings for Monday - a holiday in the US to mark Independence Day. The BFG - Steven Spielberg’s adaption of the Roald Dahl novel - debuted in fourth place after taking $19.6m (£14.8m).

Independence Day: Resurgence rounded off the top five, taking $16.5m (£12.4m) in its second week.

In an article examining why the film is not doing as well as expected, The Wrap said “Rylance is not a box office draw” despite his success at this year’s Oscars.

Coleman not interested in England manager post

London, Jul 4 (Agencies): Wales boss Chris Coleman has dismissed suggestions he could become the next England manager.

Former Fulham and Coventry boss Coleman has guided his country to the semifinals of Euro 2016, while England’s embarrassment at losing to Iceland and failing to get beyond the last 16 has left them looking for a successor to Roy Hodgson.

Coleman signed a new two-year deal on the eve of the tournament to include Wales’ 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign.

His current Wales wage, believed to be in the region of £220,000 per year, is dwarfed by the reported £3.5m salary the FA paid Hodgson towards the end of his four-year England reign.

Chief executive Martin Glenn has said the FA will go for “the best person, not necessarily the best Englishman” for the job, but Coleman - in charge of the first British team to reach the last four of a major tournament in 20 years has laughed off suggestions he could be a candidate to succeed Hodgson.

“It’s not something I think I would get offered, but I would never rule it in to be honest,” said Coleman.

Chris Coleman

“Roy has lost his job so England will search again, but it’s not something that would ever enter my thinking.

I’m a Welshman through and through and, at international football, it was only Wales, and it would only ever be Wales.”

As well as managing F u l h a m a n d C ove n t r y, Coleman has also worked abroad in Spain and Greece.

He had ill-fated spells at Real Sociedad and Greek club Larissa, but those experiences have not totally dissuaded him from managing abroad again sometime in the future.

“I think my next job after Wales, whenever that

is, will be abroad,” added Coleman.

“I quite fancy the chance of going abroad again, because I think that’s my best chance of managing in the Champions League.

When you’re talking about Champions League football in the Premier League, you’re talking about the top clubs the massive clubs.”

“It’s not something I think I’d get linked with, so my best chance of managing Champions League football would be abroad. It’s an ambition of mine. But to manage another country?

Keeping in view that the needs, interests and aptitudes of children at a different levels vary, the programme was stretched from 27th June to 2nd July' 16.

Children participated enthusiastically in non academic and spiritual activities like Praise & Workship, Bible games, songs, workshop on creativity and sharing of word of God. Young children listening to relevant Bible stories with great curiosity was one of the additional activity during this year's programme.

A good number of ex-students fully motivated the children by assisting in various activities throughout the programme.

While Mrs. Esther Murry, Administrator of the school led and guided the children in all activities, Rev. Moses Murry, Chairman, Bethesda Hr. Sec.

France end Iceland’s Euro dream run

Paris, Jul 4 (IANS): Iceland’s fairytale run at the European football championship came to a crushing end as hosts France tamed them 5-2 in the quarter-final at the Stade de France here.

Iceland, who shocked England 2-1 in their last

match, on Sunday found themselves 0-4 down by the time the break rolled around.

And it was clear that Iceland were not going to prevail over the Euro tourney hosts.

They fell behind after only 12 minutes through a goal from France striker Ol-

eight minutes later by jumping highest to power home a header from the corner.

Two minutes before the interval, France pulled ahead with four goals. West Ham United forward Dimitri Payet scored his third goal of the tournament in the 43rd minute when he received the ball from Antoine Griezmann, dragged the ball onto his left and drilled it across the keeper into the bottom right corner.

In the 45th minute, Atletico Madrid forward Griezmann scored the fourth by himself, running onto the dummy from Giroud and lifting the ball over the advancing Halldorsson.

The goal took Griezmann to four in the tournament and he is now the highest scorer at Euro 2016.

Iceland settled down from the first half panic and pulled one back in the 56th minute through forward Kolbeinne Sigthorsson, who stabbed home his second of the tournament from a worldclass Gylfi Sigurdsson cross.

But Giroud made it 5-1 three minutes later with a header as France regained the four-goal lead.

Iceland, the smallest country in history -- with a population of around 3,30,000

-- to have compete in a major tournament, refused to throw in the towel.

And their efforts paid off in the 84th minute when Birkir Bjarnason nodded in Ari Skulason’s far-post cross into the bottom corner.

It was too late and too little but they can still leave the tournament with head held high.

Perhaps it was a foregone conclusion after all, given the fact that Iceland had never been able to defeat France in any of their 11 previous encounters, with France winning eight of them and the other three finishing as draws.

H o w e v e r, I c e l a n d , coached by Heimir Hallgrimsson and Lars Lagerbäck -who were loved and admired by all teams and coaches in the tourney -- will nevertheless go down in history since nobody thought that they could make it so far in the Euro competition.

Lars Lagerback, Iceland’s joint coach, extended his congratulation to France and was happy with the darkhorse show during the tournament.

France will next face reigning world champions Germany in the semifinals while Wales take on Portugal.

Kerber reaches quarters Superior cour t craft proved decisive for Australian Open champion Angelique Kerber on Monday as she motored past Japanese pocket

rocket Misaki Doi 6-3, 6-1 in a full-blooded fourth-round match on Wimbledon’s Court Two. German fourth seed Kerber, who reached the semifinals at the All England Club in 2012, risked being overpowered early in the first set as her 5-foot-3 (1.59 metre) opponent bludgeoned forehand winners to both sides of the court.

But Kerber, who shocked world number one Serena Williams to win her maiden grand slam title in Melbourne in January, gradually found her range on her groundstrokes while 49th-ranked Doi’s radar began to slip. In a match full of mesmerising rallies, Kerber broke twice in the first set, winning it on her third set point, before cruising through the second as Doi’s challenge fizzled out.

London, Jul 4 (Agencies): Roger Federer felled high-flying Steve Johnson at Wimbledon on Monday, knocking the wind out of the powerhouse with a 6-2 6-3 7-5 win in the fourth round. Despite considerable pre-match hype about Johnson, fresh from victory at the Nottingham grasscourt event, there was to be no Independence Day party for the burly American, as Federer showed more than enough to suggest he remains on track for a record eighth Wimbledon men’s singles crown. While Murray-supporting Brits have been rubbing their hands with glee over Djokovic’s shock third-round defeat, the biggest beneficiary of the Serb’s removal may yet prove to be third seed Federer, who on Monday drew level with Martina Navratilova on a record 306 grand slam singles match wins.

In the quarter-finals, Federer will play Croatian ninth seed Marin Cilic who advanced after his opponent, Japanese fifth seed Kei Nishikori, retired injured while trailing 6-1 5-1.
