ORLANDO, JUN 12 (AGENCIES): At least 50 people were killed and 53 injured inside a crowded gay nightclub in Orlando after a heavily armed gunman opened fire and seized hostages early Sunday, making it the worst mass shooting in US history. The incident prompted a police SWAT team to storm the venue, officials said. “We have cleared the building, and it is with great sadness that I share we have not 20 but 50 casualties in addition to the shooter,” Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer told a news briefing, raising the death toll from 20 previously. “There are another 53 that are hospitalized,” he added.

Consensus needed on India’s entry to NSG, says China BEIJING, JUN 12 (AGENCIES): China said on Sunday that more talks were needed to build a consensus on which countries can join the main group controlling access to sensitive nuclear technology, after a push by the United States to include India. China is seen as leading opposition to the US move to include India in the 48-nation Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), but other countries, including New Zealand, Turkey, South Africa and Austria, also oppose Indian membership, according to diplomats. The NSG aims to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons by restricting the sale of items that can be used to make those arms. A decision on Indian membership is not expected before an NSG plenary meeting in Seoul on June 20. Most of the hold-outs oppose the idea of admitting a nonNPT state such as India and argue that if it is to be admitted, it should be under criteria that apply equally to all states rather than under a “tailor-made” solution for a US ally. Meanwhile, Pakistan’s dubious track record on nonproliferation hasn’t come in the way of its ‘telephone diplomacy’ to reach out to influential members of the NSG to take the wind out of India’s campaign for membership. Pakistan has demanded that NSG follow a criteria-based approach for the induction of all non-NPT states, and not make a 2008-like exception for India.

lier, FBI special agent Ron Harper said, “Unfortunately there are people who died from gunshot wounds inside the night club. This did turn into a hostage situation.” Orlando police chief John Mina said. “At approximately 0500 hours (0900 GMT) this morning, the decision was made to rescue hostages that were in there.” It was unclear whether all the victims were killed by the gunman or if some died in the ensuing shootout with police. The gunman has been identified as a citizen of Afghan descent, US television networks reported today. Quoting law enforcement sources, CBS News named the shooter as Omar Mateen, who was
born to Afghan parents in 1986 and lived in Port St Lucie, Florida. The network reported that Mateen -- who died in a shootout with police after the hostage siege -- has no apparent criminal history and that authorities are investigating whether he had ties to Islamic extremism. Police said the shooter was dead, four hours after the incident began with a volley of gunfire in the Pulse nightclub in downtown Orlando, triggering a massive deployment of police and emergency vehicles. “We can confirm this is a mass casualty situation,” the Orlando police said on their Twitter account.
“The shooter inside the club is dead,” they said in a separate tweet. It was the second shooting incident in the city in just over 24 hours, coming shortly after singer Christina Grimmie was shot dead late Friday by a gunman who stormed a theater where she had just finished a gig. Witnesses said the shooting erupted at around 2:00 AM amid throbbing music as the crowded club was nearing closing time. Speaking to Sky News, clubber Ricardo Negron, who was inside when the shooting began, described how the gunman raked the club with bullets. “People just dropped on the floor. I guess the shooter was shooting at the ceiling because you could see all the glass from the lamps falling,” he told the network. He described hearing “nonstop firing” which probably lasted less than a minute but felt like a lot longer. “There was a brief pause in the shooting and some of us just got up and ran out the back.” “People have definitely been injured -- or worse.” Emergency vehicles swarmed the area, with at least one crisis command vehicle at the scene. “Shooting at Pulse Nightclub on S Orange. Multiple injuries. Stay away from area,” Orlando police wrote on Twitter. “There are injuries. I am not sure if there are any deceased at this time,” a police dispatcher told AFP. “Officers are going in to search the building and to get people out.” Witness Christopher Hanson said he heard “loud banging noises, like gunshots going off.”

Pfutsero reels ‘Rajnath Singh for CM’ under darkness chorus grows in UP BJP
DIMAPUR, JUN 12 (NPN): Pfutsero subdivision under Phek has been reeling under darkness for the last couple of days due to breakdown of 2.5 MVA transformer, Kalos Society, Pfutsero informed in a press statement on Sunday. The Society said most of the villages and urban areas under the sub-divisions are without electricity and the people are suffering due to non-availability of electricity in the area. In this regard, Kalos Society demanded that the state government install a new transformer with higher capacity at the earliest taking into account the colossal growth of population and developments at Pfutsero town and its adjacent villages. Kalos Society also reminded the power department that mere installation or repairing of transformer with the same capacity would not suffice since it was below the capacity to cater the needs of Pfutsero sub-division usage of 4.2MVA. The society also said that due to low capacity transformer, the citizens for the past few years have been facing frequent power cuts and “unwelcoming” load shedding. It also urged the power department to intimidate the people on such developments so that any miscommunications between the department and public could be avoided. Further, the society has asked the department to review the non-availability of reserved transformers and make necessary arrangements so that such unprecedented incidents could be handled without any difficulties. They also suggested the department to reserve few transformers with various capacities to cater the needs in times of such eventualities. In this regard, Kalos Society urged the concern authority to retrospect and reflect the undue hardship faced by the public and bring “exceptional solution” at the earliest. They warned that prolonging the matter would invite undue consequences for which concerned authority would be solely responsible.
MEERUT, JUN 12 (AGENCIES): Amidst the tussle among UP BJP leaders, local leaders told TOI that home minister Rajnath Singh is emerging as a favorite among the state unit to head the party campaign as its CM candidate in the 2017 assembly elections. Recent reports had claimed that PM Narendra Modi and party president Amit Shah had offered the post to Singh, who was reluctant to take up the mantle. According to a BJP leader, the central government was planning a “major internal security operation” in the “near future” and Rajnath Singh would be made to take the credit for the operation to boost his standing ahead of the 2017 polls. While leaders said the selection of a CM candidate was not a topic of discussion at the party’s national executive meeting in Allahabad on Sunday, there were “serious deliberations in the party high command” on whether or not to name Singh as the face of the campaign. The 65-year-old leader had held the post of UP CM from 2000 to 2002. A BJP functionary said Singh would appeal to voters in both eastern and western UP since he has represented both Lucknow and Ghaziabad in the Lok Sabha. “There is a lot of buzz around Rajnath. There are other names doing the rounds, like those of Varun Gandhi and Smriti Irani, but they are
UNTABA wants NLA NSCN (I-M) flays ACAUT’s ‘extreme provocation’ resolution on border row DIMAPUR, JUN 12 (NPN): United Naga Tribes Association on Border Areas (UNTABA) has urged upon Nagaland chief minister, T.R. Zeliang to adopt a resolution on the floor of Nagaland Legislative Assembly (NLA) seeking the Parliament to pass an Act for amendment to section 3 & 4 of the State of Nagaland Act, 1962 at the earliest possible time with regard to AssamNagaland boundary. This proposal was forwarded by UNTABA chairman, Hukavi T. Yeputhomi and ex. minister and senior advisory board member, Tiameren Aier at the consultative meet convened by chief minister at his residence on June 11, UNTABA general secretary, Imsumongba Pongen said in a statement. UNTABA has also asked the chief minister, to “vigorously” pursue implementation of points no. 12 &13 of the “16 point agreement” of 1960 on amalgamation of the traditional and historical Naga lands to
the present state of Nagaland according to the constitutional provisions of Articles 3 &4 of the Constitution of India. They also briefed the chief minister on the need to file writ petition in the Supreme Court for implementation of “9 Points Agreement” of 1947 on the amalgamation, vis-a-vis bringing back the traditional and historical Naga lands in Assam to Nagaland as agreed between the then emissaries of the Government of India and the Naga people (NNC). UNTABA further asked the chief minister to allow the departments of law and justice and border affairs to jointly pursue in the litigation process undergoing in the Supreme Court and appoint senior citizen having knowledge on the boundary issue as advisor to the department and the government. UNTABA has also appreciated the decision of the state government to file counter suit in the Supreme Court.
DIMAPUR, JUN 12 (NPN): Reacting to “extreme provocation” hurled by ACAUT through repeated challenges to the “realm of nationalist government and administration”, NSCN(I-M) said this has “reached the point of re-examining together with the Naga people” on how the “agent of divide and kill the Naga nationalist movement” be given space of tolerance and why befitting action should not be initiated against ACAUT. In a strongly worded statement, MIP asked how could an agent of “divide and kill the Naga nationalist movement” be given space of tolerance and why not befitting actions against them should not be initiated” ?. MIP said it (ACAUT) was spearheaded by a “handful of prejudiced persons whose vested interest were contradictory to the nationalist agenda, patronised and secretly funded by the apparatus of Indian bureaucrats and retired Indian army Generals”, who it said, were hell bent to disturb the progress of Indo-Naga peace
Implement NRC to check IBIs: Thomas Staff Reporter
Dimapur, Jun 12 (NPN): Independent MLA, Thomas Ngullie has urged the state government to implement National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Nagaland so as to effectively control the growing population of the Illegal Bangladeshi Immigrants (IBIs) in the state. Interacting with the media persons on Sunday, MLA Ngullie said if the state government was serious about checking the illegal influx of Bangladeshi immigrants then it should immediately implement NRC effectively. Citing that Illegal Bangladeshi Immigrants (IBIs) was a direct threat to the future of the Nagas, Ngullie said the rise in their population was a bigger threat which should checked with all sincerity. The former minister held the Congress government in the past as “responsible to a great extend” for the rise in Bangladeshi Immigrants. He declared that his constituency was free from
any suspected IBI voters. He said, “the future of Nagas is more important than me becoming an MLA”. Ngullie informed that the Central government was ready to assist the state in any possible way to help implement NCR in the state. Taking a jibe at the state government on the IndoNaga political issue, Ngullie questioned the sincerity of the state government as to why the Framework Agreement was still not taken forward although it was signed sometime back. He said it was a crucial time for the Nagas as they need a strong leader to take the Framework Agreement and turn it into a reality. On the developmental front, Ngullie said the government had no developmental activity or programmes for the people. Lamenting over the halfhearted attitude of the people, the MLA said the citizens were just being mute spectators even though they could see the total breakdown in
governance. Ngullie alleged that there had been a huge discrimination in allocation of funds for development and that no funds were allocated to his constituency except those that comes from the Local Area Development Funds (LADF). The independent legislator disclosed that the ongoing tussle within the NPF party had left a fear psychosis which was in total control of the situation. He said the government was maintaining different standards for different MLAs and parliamentary secretaries. Exclaiming surprise at the lack of discipline in the present government, Ngullie said, “I’ve never seen such indiscipline in my 35 years of political career”. On T.R. Zeliang’s educational qualification row, Ngullie said that if Rio was suspended for questioning the authenticity of Zeliang’s academic credentials then the latter should produce his original documents and prove it to the world.
talks. Citing an instance, MIP said when NSCN rebuked ACAUT in 2013, in its initial stage through the media, the first person to defend it was Maj. Gen. (Retd) N. George then CFMG chairman. Further MIP said, as per June 12 media reports, it came to know that “the banned ACAUT had gone to the extent of employing and giving assignment to the VDB of Wokha district remarkably by giving a seven day dateline”. MIP also accused ACAUT of giving “direction of what to do and what not to do to the Naga public by threatening to use the apparatus of their creator to those failing to comply with their directives”. To this MIP questioned, since when did the “Naga public become the ‘subject’ of this nuisance called ACAUT?” It also questioned as to how could “they flaunt such audacity without any compunction and arrogance in Naga territory?” MIP pointed out that “ACAUT should be made to shed its true colour no matter
what it takes to do so”. MIP affirmed that NSCN would “not allow Nagas to be taken for granted while masquerading around like champion of anti-corruption”. It also said that the NSCN “will not allow banned organisation to challenge and confront the activities that concern national interest”. While stating that Nagas could not be fooled around by the catchy name of “One government one tax” without understanding the dynamics involved, MIP said as far as Naga nationalism movement’s history was concerned, “no Naga organisation or party had ever mobilize Naga public support to reject the ‘absolute sovereign rights’ of the nationalist government to impose and collect taxation”. However, taking advantage of the precarious political situation of flourishing factions, MIP said that the “temptation to fish in the troubled water at the service of their master who took pleasure in destabilizing Naga political movement has become too
obnoxious to bear”. It said Nagas in the past withstood the mighty British colonialist and the government of India in paying them tax, and also boycotted the Indian election. “Till today, heeding the wishes and aspirations of Naga people and the seriousness of the current Indo-Naga peace talks, all the Naga MLAs irrespective of party affiliations has taken a unanimous decision to step down and pave way for the negotiated settlement to take place when such time comes despite the Oath of allegiance they have taken under the constitution of India”, MIP said. Such crucial statesmanship, MIP said, would go down in the annals of Naga political history as an important chapter. “It also inspires and rejuvenates the Naga political struggle and such spirit strengthened the bond of camaraderie and proved that despite the difference in our ways of concern to the core of Naga issue the common objective stays the same”, MIP stated.

Soon you won’t need to carry multiple documents for air travel BARCELONA, JUN 12 (PTI): Thanks to new revolutionary technology, airline passengers could soon be able to travel through airports and borders with just a ‘secure single token’ eliminating the need of carrying multiple travel documents. Airline solutions and technology provider SITA is exploring the potential of newlyemerging ‘blockchain’ technology to provide travellers with a ‘secure single token’ which was previewed at the 2016 Air Transport IT Summit here in this Spanish city. The revolutionary technology provides the opportunity to allow secure biometric authentication of passengers throughout the journey across borders which could remove the need for multiple travel documents without passengers having to share their personal data. SITA’s technology research team, SITA Lab, is researching how using virtual or digital passports in the form of a secure single token on mobile and wearable devices could reduce complexity, cost and liability around document checks during the passenger journey. Jim Peters, CTO, SITA, said, “Our vision is for seamless secure travel. But the underlying design of today’s computer systems means that
there are multiple exchanges of data between various agencies and multiple verification steps, which reduces the ability to have a single global system”. “Now blockchain technology offers us the potential to provide a new way of using biometrics. It could enable biometrics to be used across borders, and at all airports, without the passenger’s details being stored by the various authorities,” he said. SITA’s researchers are investigating a versatile and secure system to make the single travel token work globally, across all borders. Blockchain technology allows ‘privacy by design’ so that passenger data can be secure, encrypted, tamper-proof and unusable for any other purpose. It also eliminates the need for a single authority to own, process or store the data. The crypto-led computer science of blockchain provides a network of trust, where the source and history of the data is verifiable by everyone. Whether it is used for currency or travel it is simply a record of events that is shared between multiple parties but most importantly once information is entered, it cannot be changed, and privacy and security are by design,” Peters added.
political novices compared to the home minister. UP is not a cakewalk and we will need our most experienced leader at the helm and nobody knows UP like Rajnath Singh. He has already governed UP before and that experience will come in handy. The local party leaders and workers will easily rally behind him. If someone so senior is made the CM, it will also quell the egos of leaders like Yogi Adityanath. The senior leadership, including Amit Shah, is enthusiastic about him,” a BJP functionary said. He added, “There is talk among ministers that the central government is planning a major internal security-related military operation in Jammu and Kashmir. Once the operation is successful, they will hail Rajnath Singh as a hero in the media. That will increase his standing among the people as a tough leader. Once that image is seared into the minds of the people, it will be much easier to project him as the CM face by November. The momentum will be with us and we can win UP.” Rajnath had accompanied the Prime Minister during his rally in Saharanpur last month, to mark two years of the Modi government. While Modi presented what amounted to a report card of the past two years, Singh sounded the poll bugle for the state. He said, “For UP, 14 years of ‘vanvaas’ (exile) are over. Now is the BJP’s time.”

Blockade effect: Manipur women sell fuel on roadside
A Manipuri woman at a petrol pump in Imphal during economic blockade on Sunday. IMPHAL, JUN 12 (IANS): Binasakhi is busy these days. No, it’s not with household chores, but this housewife in Manipur capital is occupied because of the economic blockade -- she is selling petrol at a premium from her roadside stall. “Every time there is a general strike or a blockade, I can earn about Rs 1,000 per day,” Binasakhi, 45, told IANS as she sold petrol to a motorist. Econom ic bl o c ka d e is like a perennial curse for people in Manipur who reel under the crippling effects of such agitation. This time, it’s the joint committee of tribal groups that has called for the 10-day blockade. The result has been on the expected lines -- prices of the commodities have skyrocketed as panic buying continued. Petrol and diesel have become a luxury, as the fuel stations remain closed.
So how could Binasakhi source petrol? It’s an open secret here. Whenever there is a blockade or strike in Manipur, hundreds of women like Binasakhi team up with certain fuel station employees who provide petrol and diesel for an additional charge of Rs 10 to Rs 15 per litre. The fuel is collected in jerrycans and bottles by these women. And then the housewives use their entrepreneurial skills to sell petrol and diesel by jacking up the prices by another Rs 10 or Rs 15 depending on the demand. “The police don’t trouble us even though we sit on the roadside under umbrellas to sell petrol and diesel,” said Nungshibi, 40, who is one among the many women who are the only options for motorists to source fuel at such times of crisis. “We just run away in case the jerrycans catch fire due to some accident. Other-
wise, it’s all fine here,” she told IANS. Locals here know that these enterprising women are in reality helping to keep the wheels turning. Or else, life would have been even more miserable in a state which often gets cut off from the rest of the country due to strikes and blockades. But what happens if the blockade or the strike continues for months? “In such a situation, the male members of the families source low grade fuel from Myanmar, about 110 kilometres from Imphal. They travel there with scores of jerrycans to collect petrol and diesel,” said a local. And so this story of unofficial fuel supply chain continues even as people of Manipur brave yet another blockade that has been called to protest against three “antitribal” bills passed by the Assembly in 2015.
northeast IMC formation: Both Cong, BJP yet to choose leaders Correspondent IMPHAL, JUN 12: Uncertainty looms large over formation of Imphal Municipal Corporation (IMC) even after five days of announcement of the results of the elections. Even as the Congress emerged as the single largest party by security 12 out of 27 seats, the party is yet to make a formal announcement on formation of the civic body. The major opposition BJP captured 10 seats in the elections, while independent candidates secured five seats in the elections. The voting was conducted on June 2 while the results were announced on June 7. With four independent candidates joined hands with the Congress, the ruling party has been putting all efforts to form the next civic body. However, the sources in the party informed that it was in the process of selection of leader of the councilors. Four elected councilors were in the race for the leader who will be the mayor of the Imphal. Apart from it, independents in the Congress camp have reportedly demanded the post of deputy mayor. The choosing next mayor is not a easy task because, elected members are not bound by the Anti-Defection law and they can leave the party they are nominated at his or her own wills. Meanwhile, all the elected Congress councilors including the four independents were camping together at an undisclosed place, unreachable for contact even by media. Similarly, the saffron party is also yet to choose its leaders.
Skeleton found near BSF camp in Manipur
IMPHAL, JUN 12 (IANS): A human skeleton was found near a BSF camp, about 10 km from here, and a human rights activist said there was no accounting for the numerous people missing during the height of the armed insurgency in Manipur. The skeleton was sighted on Saturday night, 100 metres from a Border Security Force (BSF) camp at Koirengei in Imphal East district, about 10 km from the state capital, sources said.
Forensic scientists have collected samples for testing. Samples will have to be sent either to Kolkata or Hyderabad as there is no facility for DNA profiling in Manipur, L. Fimate, who heads the forensic science department of J.N. Institute of Medical Sciences here, told IANS on Sunday. The results of the DNA profiling should reach the Manipur government in a month or so, he said. Khaidem Mani, a human
rights activist, told IANS that the Supreme Court was looking into a complaint that at least 1,528 people were missing since the height of the armed insurgency in Manipur. “Compensations were paid to the family members of some victims, but nobody had been booked and sent to prison. Most of the missing persons are feared to be victims of fake encounters whose bodies were secretly disposed of,” Mani said. He said the government
should order a probe to establish the identity of the person whose skeleton was found near the BSF camp. “It is also disappointing that so far nothing has been heard of the testing of the skeletons found in the past in Manipur.” On December 25 and 26, 2014, eight human skulls and several skeletal remains were found at the Tombisana high school, located in the heart of Imphal city.

NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (PTI): The Home Ministry is turning TV producer to showcase success stories from Northeast on national television. The Ministry has already commissioned a 13-episode programme, with each telling stories like that of the all-girls band Hurricane Girls, family planning campaigner Dr Ilyas Ali or gymnast Dipa Karmakar. The programme will roll out later this month on Doordarshan and if successful, the North-East Division in the Home Ministry may look at the possibility of extending it to 26 or even 52 episodes. The Ministry is also looking at the possibility of airing this programme on private channels. “Our idea is to make people aware about the success stories in the northeast. Through this programme, we are trying to tell how these people are changing lives in the region,” a senior Home Ministry official said. This programme is expected to go a long way in changing the attitude of people in other parts of the country towards those from the northeast as they sometimes face problems outside the region, another official said. It would also give a sneakpeak into life in the northeast though primarily it would talk about individual success stories. One of the most anticipated episodes would be that on 23year-old Dipa Karmakar from Tripura, the first Indian woman gymnast to seal an Olympic berth. The episode is planned to be aired just before Olympics starts in Brazil in August. The Home Ministry is also planning episodes on celebrated boxers Shiva Thapa and Mary Kom. In the episode on Hurricane Girls, the all-girl band from Guwahati, one of the Two-wheelers semi-submerged in a water logged area at G.S Road after the down band members talk about their experience of their first show. pour in Guwahati on Sunday.

The Chief Minister said the AAP government had set up 100 Mohalla clinics which is more than the number of dispensaries that came up in last 60 years. “100 Mohalla clinics have come up in past one year which is more than the number of dispensaries that were built in last 60 years. 1,000 more dispensaries (Mohalla clinics) will be ready in Delhi in the next six months. I feel no such record exists in the whole world,” he said. Kejriwal also appreciated Health minister Satyendar
Arvind Kejriwal Jain’s announcement regarding conversion of private rooms in government hospitals into air conditioned wards for providing medical facilities to rich and poor alike. Expressing his government’s commitment to ensuring quality health and education facilities for the poorest, the Chief Minister said 200 schools have been constructed in one year. “Constructing 200 schools in one year, I think it should find a mention in the Guinness Book,” he said. “Earlier there were delays due to corruption because everyone was indulging in setting (unscrupulous dealings). Officers and ministers did not work till they got their commission. Now this entire chain has been broken and no one is taking money which is why work is faster now,” he said.
Eminent journalist Inder Malhotra cremated
NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (PTI): Mortal remains of eminent journalist Inder Malhotra were on Sunday cremated at the Lodhi Road crematorium in the presence of his family members, former prime minister Manmohan Singh, a large number of journalists, diplomats and people from different walks of life. His son Anil Revri performed the last rites at around 11 AM. Floral wreaths from the President of India and Vice President were laid on the veteran journalist, who passed away at a city hospital yesterday following a cardiac arrest. Paying his condolence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that Malhotra was a “stalwart” of Indian journalism. “Shri Inder Malhotra was a stalwart of Indian journalism, whose work will always be respected & remembered. Saddened by his demise. RIP,” Modi said in his tweet. In his long career, Malhotra helmed a string of top publications and was an accomplished political commentator. President Pranab Mukherjee and Vice President Hamid Ansari condoled the demise of Malhotra, one of the finest journalists of contemporary times. “In his death, the nation has lost a veteran journalist who served as a role model for others in the profession,” said Mukherjee.
matter of serious concern.” The party president also referred to the highest civilian honours accorded on Modi by two prominent Islamic countries, Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan, in a clear message to Muslims who continue to be wary of BJP due to its Hindutva agenda. Shah referred to the Modi government’s foreign policy achievements and made a special reference to the “unique thing” of the two Islamic countries awarding him with their highest civilians honours. “While some people are running a campaign against Modi, this is an evidence of his international image as all Islamic countries where he visited spoke in one voice against terrorism and recognized India as a source of stability in Asia,” Prasad said when asked if Shah’s mention of these awards was an attempt to reach out to Muslims. The national executive on its first day and Shah in his speech did not refer to the party’s core issue of Ram Temple with Prasad saying that it was not necessary to take it up in every meeting but it was a matter of “faith
NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (PTI): Congress will approach the Election Commission tomorrow to protest against the “misuse of government machinery” in the Rajya Sabha elections for two seats in Haryana yesterday which led to independent candidate R K Anand, backed by the party, losing the poll. Party general secretary B K Hariprasad said they will approach the Election Commission tomorrow and demand countermanding of election to both Rajya Sabha seats from Haryana. Asked whether the party suspected internal sabotage in the elections including by former chief minister B S Hooda, he replied in negative. Hariprasad alleged that there was deliberate fraud in the election by switching the pen meant for marking the votes so as to make the Congress votes invalid. The votes of 14 Congress MLAs were declared invalid leading to the loss of Anand who was otherwise expected to win. On his part, Hooda said there has been a “big conspiracy” and the truth should come out. “A probe by the Election Commission should be sought. This truth will come out in 24 hours,” he said in Chandigarh. Hariprasad had yesterday said that prima facie he saw a conspiracy from the government’s side and said the party will find out the truth. “We will fight it politically and legally,” he had said. The defeat of Anand came as a bolt from the blue for the Congress and its high command, which was confident that its strategy to trounce BJPbacked media baron and independent candidate Subhash Chandra would succeed. On Friday, the Congress Legislature Party at its meeting had authorised party chief Sonia Gandhi to decide on who to vote for and she had directed voting in favour of Anand. Hooda was not initially in favour of Anand as he was backed by INLD, the rival party in Haryana.
Govt puts on back burner EC plan on protection to members NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (PTI): The government has put in cold storage a proposal of the Election Commission to give equal constitutional protection to all members of the poll body with regard to their removal, saying it would require amending the Constitution. The Law Ministr y is learnt to have informed the Election Commission that a political consensus needed to be evolved before section 324(5) of the Constitution could be amended to provide equal protection to the Election Commissioners in the event of their removal. A senior government functionary told PTI that the Supreme Court had also upheld the present provision that the Election Commissioners and the Regional Commissioners once appointed cannot be removed from office before the expiry of their tenure “except on the recommendation of the CEC” which “ensures their independence”. The President appoints Chief Election Commissioner and Election Commissioners after the Law Ministry initiates the file for their appointment. The Chief Election Commissioner can be removed from office only through impeachment by Parliament. The President can remove the ECs based on the recommendation of the CEC. At a meeting between Chief Election Commissioner Nasim Zaidi and top Law Ministry officials here on January 5, the poll body had said it wants the government to adopt the same removal procedures for the two Election Commissioners as in case of the Chief Election Commissioner. Besides other senior officials, the CEC was accompanied by Election Commissioner O P Rawat at the meeting. At a follow-up meeting later, senior officials of the Law Ministry were learnt to have informed the Commission that the demands for equal protection to the two ECs needed amendment to Constitution
for which political unanimity was required. The officials are also understood to have referred to the 1995 Supreme Court judgement in the T N Seshan, Chief Election Commissioner of India Vs Union of India case in which the apex court had also examined Article 324 (5) of the Constitution dealing with appointment and removal of CEC and fellow Commissioners. The provision states that “any other Election Commissioner or a Regional Commissioner (RC) shall not be removed from office except on the recommendation of the Chief Election Commissioner.” “The scheme of Article 324 in this behalf is that after insulating the CEC by the first proviso to clause(5), the ECs and the RCs have been assured independence of functioning by providing that they cannot be removed except on the recommendation of the CEC. Of course, the recommendation for removal must be based on intelligible and cogent considerations which would have relation to efficient functioning of the Election Commission. “That is so because this privilege has been conferred on the CEC to ensure that the ECs as well as the RCs are not at the mercy of political or executive bosses of the day. It is necessary to realise that this check on the Executive’s power to remove is built into the second proviso to clause (5) to safeguard the independence of not only these functionaries but the Election Commission as a body,” the apex court order had said. In its report on electoral reforms submitted in March last year, the Law Commission had also proposed extending constitutional protection to the two ECs. “When Constitution says that the ECs may be appointed as the President may decide from time to time, how can we give them Constitutional protection,” he maintained.
Kidney racket: 3 Apollo doctors likely to be grilled NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (PTI): Three nephrologists at the Apollo Hospital here are likely to be questioned by Delhi Police in connection with the transplant surgeries performed under their supervision which were facilitated by the kidney racket in which 10 persons have been arrested so far. The names of the three doctors emerged during the interrogation of the racket’s kingpin Rajkumar Rao, who was allegedly operating in several states and is believed to have links with similar cartels in other countries, a senior police official said. One of the three senior doctors is currently in the US. He was to return on Thursday but did not. Two of his personal assistants were the first to be arrested in connection with the racket. A police team has been deployed at IGI airport to keep check on the doctor’s return, the official said. During investigation, police found blank papers signed by the doctor, which were allegedly used by his assistants to complete the formalities to facilitate kidney transplant surgeries at the hospital. A personal assistant of another senior doctor too was detained by police on Friday and the nephrologist’s role is under scanner now. The name of the third doctor emerged after the police came across a donor linked to the racket. The suspicion of his involvement grew after his name cropped up during Rao’s interrogation. Police are already investigating his assistant’s role, the official added. Police are likely to send notice in a day asking all three of them to join the probe. Similar notices were earlier issued to five senior officials of the hospital, including the head of the 10-member internal assessment committee for transplant surgeries. Ten persons, including two personal assistants of a nephrologist, several middlemen and donors, besides the kingpin have been arrested in connection with the racket so far.

Briefing reporters about Shah’s speech, Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said the National Executive will not name any chief ministerial candidate for the UP polls, noting that such a decision can be taken only by the party’s Parliamentary Board, its highest decision-making body. Prasad also faced a barrage of questions on whether the saffron party was attempting at “communal polarisation” with Shah raking up issues like migration of Hindus from Kairana, a contention he vehemently denied. He insisted that the BJP’s “foremost commitment” was to UP’s development but made it clear that the Akhilesh Yadav government’s law and order failures be it in Mathura or Kairana were a matter of deep concern. “We don’t speak about communalism but about national interest.” Prasad quoted Shah as saying, “the migration happening in Kairana due to violence is a matter of serious concern. There is an atmosphere of violence. The lack of development and the lack of governance in the biggest state of India that is Uttar Pradesh is becoming a
not elections” for the party. Hindutva bodies affiliated to RSS have been clamouring for an early construction of the temple in Ayodhya. The party chief described its win in the recent Assam assembly polls and rise in vote share in states like Kerala and West Bengal as “happy beginning for a good future”. He spoke about the party’s focus on increasing its strength in Coromandel states like Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha and Tamil Nadu besides Bengal. BJP had not won many Lok Sabha seats from these states in 2014 and Shah has focused on them with 2019 Lok Sabha polls in mind. The gateway to the northeast has opened to BJP, he said while referring to the Assam victory. Shah also drew a contrast between the two years of the Modi government and the UPA rule of 10 years, saying that the latter was full of scams and policy paralysis while BJP has given a “corruption-free” and accountable government aimed at public welfare. In the UPA, all ministers considered themselves prime ministers but did not treat the Prime Minister as one while in the NDA there is a “decisive leadership” which had struck a balance between rural and urban development, reform and public welfare and foreign and defence policies, the BJP President said. The massive publicity and public outreach launched by the government following its two years of power was termed by him as the “new standards of democratic accountability” as he noted that union ministers and party’s office bearers travelled to over 250 places to give people an account of its work. “It’s a unique example of public contact,” he told the Executive. Modi also spoke briefly and is believed to have praised the party’s growing strength. He is set to deliver the concluding speech tomorrow and then address a rally.

ALLAHABAD , JUN 12 (PTI): With the Uttar Pradesh assembly polls on his mind, BJP President Amit Shah Sunday attacked the Samajwadi Party government over the “atmosphere of violence” in the state, citing recent Mathura clashes and “migration” of Hindus from a western UP town to target it. In his inaugural speech at the party’s two-day national executive, Shah also stressed on the challenges before the party in 2017, when elections are due in UP, Punjab, Gujarat, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh, as he exhorted the party workers to rise to the occasion by taking the Modi government’s “successes” to the masses. With the entire party leadership, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, present, he also trained guns on the Congress, saying it is “increasingly weakening” and its “atrophy is growing at an alarming pace due to its policy of repeatedly obstructing the government’s path to development” in the last two years. He also expressed confidence that the party will return to power in UP in 2017 and the Centre in 2019 as well.

A belated call
t has taken the US decades to muster the moral courage in calling a spade a spade when it belatedly warned Pakistan not to allow its territory to be used for terror attacks on India. According to an analysis published by the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at Brookings Institution in 2008, Pakistan was, “with the possible exception of Iran, perhaps the world’s most active sponsor of terrorist groups... aiding groups that pose a direct threat to the United States.” Daniel Byman, an author, also writes that, “Pakistan is probably today’s most active sponsor of terrorism”. Political observers who have been studying the Indo-Pak political affairs, wonder whether the US advisory would make any impact since the power equation in Pakistan is weighed heavily in favour of the military establishment. In addition, the Pakistani military establishment derives its importance due to its virulent anti-India campaign and sponsoring, training and arming dozens of terror outfits against India. The Obama administration, in its last days in office, had chosen to respond to the plea from prime minister Narendra Modi at the US Congress to identify and isolate countries that sponsor terror networks. Although US has gone on record saying the advisory is one of the steps that the US is encouraging Pakistan to do for the improvement of its relations with India, the query remains who and how it will be implemented? Having secured wherewithal to religious fundamentalists and several outfits over the years at the cost of people’s welfare, the cash starved poor Islamist nation may not take the advisory as an obligation on its part besides finding it difficult to act upon it. It has taken the US quite sometime to finally understand and relate with India’s deep concern with terror attacks from across the border. After 26/11, the US should have been convinced that Pakistan is turning out to be a rouge country on the basis of documents and voluminous reports prepared. IndoPak relations have been swinging like a pendulum from hopefulness to hopelessness. Despite understanding that friendly relations would work to the advantage of both; Pakistan however cannot climb down from the ‘Kashmir’ tiger lest it be swallowed up. The military hawks in Pakistan want to keep the Kashmir fire burning as it helps to maintain control over the government. Terror attacks on India is Pakistan’s way of fighting a proxy war. Despite these provocations, India has been consistent in trying to normalise relations. However, the latest attacks in Pathankot air base in Punjab in January, was proof that Pakistan is the hub of terrorism. Pakistan had been brilliantly manipulating or managing two super power rivals- US and China- to its advantage for decades. India then had only the erstwhile USSR as its trusted ally. With the US finally moving away from Pakistan, China remains the only nation that provides crucial support. China’s history of prevarication and clandestine support to Pakistan’s nuclear program is a matter of record. China not only provided a veritable nuclear umbrella under which Pakistan prosecutes a campaign of terror against India, it now also provides diplomatic cover for these Pakistan-funded terrorist proxies through the power of a United Nations Security Council veto. Be that as it may, terrorism from across Pakistan may not end even if the US demands it unless India is willing to go all the way as Pakistan, to become a US ally.
DailyDevotion Getting There (2) They said to Him, “Rabbi…where are You staying?” He said to them, “Come and see.” —John 1:38-39 Where our self-interest sleeps and the real interest is awakened. “They…remained with Him that day….” That is about all some of us ever do. We stay with Him a short time, only to wake up to our own realities of life. Our self-interest rises up and our abiding with Him is past. Yet there is no circumstance of life in which we cannot abide in Jesus. “You are Simon….You shall be called Cephas” (John 1:42). God writes our new name only on those places in our lives where He has erased our pride, self-sufficiency, and self-interest. Some of us have our new name written only in certain spots, like spiritual measles. And in those areas of our lives we look all right. When we are in our best spiritual mood, you would think we were the highest quality saints. But don’t dare look at us when we are not in that mood. A true disciple is one who has his new name written all over him— self-interest, pride, and self-sufficiency have been completely erased. Pride is the sin of making “self” our god. And some of us today do this, not like the Pharisee, but like the tax collector (see Luke 18:9-14). For you to say, “Oh, I’m no saint,” is acceptable by human standards of pride, but it is unconscious blasphemy against God. You defy God to make you a saint, as if to say, “I am too weak and hopeless and outside the reach of the atonement by the Cross of Christ.” Why aren’t you a saint? It is either that you do not want to be a saint, or that you do not believe that God can make you into one. You say it would be all right if God saved you and took you straight to heaven. That is exactly what He will do! And not only do we make our home with Him, but Jesus said of His Father and Himself, “…We will come to him and make Our home with him” (John 14:23). Put no conditions on your life— let Jesus be everything to you, and He will take you home with Him not only for a day, but for eternity.

India is unstoppable, Modi tells the world
rime Minister Narendra Modi’s diplomacy is paying. He has declared not only to “work shoulder to shoulder” with the US but also brought Switzeraland, Mexico, Qatar and Afghanistan closer to his fight against terrorism and bid to be part of MTCR and NSG. He has won significant business for the country – $ 10 billion nuclear projects funding by US Exim Bank, $ 40 million for US-India catalytic solar finance programmer for non-grid solar power regular Indo-US troops cooperation. The US is also to gain as India moves on to buy $ 13 billion arms from the US. It is not that India has walked into the embrace of the US. Modi has been tactical. India did not go with the “begging bowl”, as it was often projected in the past particularly by the west. Modi projected an immodest country and projected its potential. His address to the US Congress was a demonstration of two equals talking for mutual benefit. He convinced the US congressmen of unstoppable Indian rise. Modi talked of India’s strengths. He positioned it as a reliable partner with
complementary strengths. “As India embarks on an era of development, it needs to learn from America’s tradition of entrepreneurship and innovation”, Modi said. It is a significant statement and beyond the regime and friendship US President Barack H Obama. Modi apparently aware of the political changes in the US was also addressing the future president. His stress on the terror hub in the neighbourhood is significant. It is the key component in the US presidential race. In his bid to be a partner with the US, Modi was pragmatic enough not to ruffle the feathers of the Himalayan neighbor, China. He quietly dropped off avoidable South China Sea, from the joint statement. India needs China for more than one reason. Besides, winning friends does not mean creating adversaries. Modi is pragmatic. He has taken India into Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR)), a 34-member exclusive club, which controls transfer of missile, space and related technology. More importantly the club does not include China. India is the only country to be a part of it despite not signing the
nuclear non-proliferation treaty (NPT). The US suppor t for pushing India into Nuclear Supplier Group (NSG) is an important step to counter Chinese reservation. India’s Shivaji application to NSG comes up at the NSG plenary later in June itself. Practically, India does neither need membership of MTCR or NSG. The decades of sanction since 1974 has helped India develop technologies on its own. Post-1998, India’s exhibition of capability also led to dismantling of the sanction regime. But India needs the membership to assert its sovereignty and the principle that India cannot be ignored by the world powers to deny what is due to it. The memberships would open up a new era of collaboration, where none can put a spanner on “technical” grounds. India has grown on its own but it also needs the latest technologies and mechanics to move ahead. These are gateways to unhindered growth. It also ensures that India is the natural leader of the downtrodden and can stop the rogues from disrupting the world.
That is where Indo-US troop engagement beyond the shores of the two countries is significant. Doors are now open for Indian armed forces to extend their operational reach in the Sarkar critical AsiaPacific region and beyond with logistical help from the US. It also opens up the path to acquire Predator surveillance and armed drones – a requirement to strengthen the country’s security. India’s quest to acquire armed high altitude long endurance (HALE) drones, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and key space technologies will become easier after entry to MTCR. India could not acquire deadly Hellfire missiles used by the US army in Af-Pak regime as it was not in MTCR. The bilateral Logistics Exchange Memorandum of Agreement (LEMOA) envisages Indian and US militaries providing logistics support, refueling and berthing facilities to each other’s warships and aircraft on an equal-value exchange basis seamlessly. The LEMOA will give regular access to US forces to Indian military bases, though
they would not be stationed permanently. Indian forces would have access to Djibouti (horn of Africa), Diego Garcia (Indian Ocean), Guam (Western Pacific) and Subic Bay (The Philippines). India stunned the world with brave Yemen rescue mission, when 23 countries, including the US, France and Germany sought its assistance for rescue of their nationals in March-April 2015. The LEMOA is a mere recognition of Indian capability. It helps Indian forces reach to almost the entire globe. It brings an opportunity to the countrymen. It creates job not only abroad but also within the country. It is a vision that would better Indian job and economic scenario in the next few years. The multitude of Indian youth has to be adventurous to take the country ahead. There are also maritime security dialogues – key component for coastal security and sharing of commercial “white shipping” information between India and the US. India is trying to finalise such pacts with 25 countries from the African coast to the western Pacific to beef up maritime security to counter
conventional and unconventional threats. In the process, India has agreed to be on the same page on bringing Paris climate agreement into force. The joint statement indicates that the two countries will work towards ensuring that 55 nations ratify the Paris pact. Once in force, the agreements terms cannot be altered for four years. It implies that the next US president would have to abide by it. The agreements on energy security, clean energy, gas hydrates and climate change can open up a new development era. After two years, four US visits and seven summits, Modi, many may aver, has taken the country into the US ambit. But there is a less noticeable aspect of how Modi is using the US for various other relationships. It is more futuristic. The US cannot do without India in its latest geostrategy. Obama can neither push the Paris pact without India’s help nor can free Asia of terrorism nor even carry out its maneuvers in South China Sea. It is India’s moment. It has to ensure how China is on board for sailing into NSG.

Manners and discipline
he word discipline is derived from the Latin word ‘discipulus’ which means learn or to learn. It is the bridge between success and our dreams. Without discipline and manners in our life, we will only face troubles and difficulties. It is the ability to control our feelings and emotions. Manners and discipline makes us accept responsibilities. A wellmannered and disciplined person is admired, loved and adored by the society. It makes us responsible and principled citizens. Without these two qualities, our life becomes the devil’s paradise and our future becomes dark. A person, who possesses these qualities, is respected by his/her friends, elders and neighbors. A disciplined person maintains a peaceful relationship with God and lives a peaceful life with no desire for public fame, popularity or wealth. It is the art of using our liberty in such a way that it does not destroy other’s liberty because it would only lead to chaos and destruction. When we have a quick look at our surroundings, we see people spitting on the wall, littering the public property, etc. all these are because we lack discipline. Discipline, is an essential quality for each individual to have a very successful life. It is the path that leads us to success. We must remember the great saying, “Motivation may get us
started but it takes discipline to finish the journey”. A well-mannered person maintains peaceful relations with his/ her neighbors. He/she wishes “good morning” or “good afternoon” to his/her elders and teachers. Whenever helped he/she replies with a big “thank you”. In fact, not only in happiness, but also in the times of difficulties, he/she thanks God for the difficulties for him/her and grows better and stronger out of it. He/ she have the confidence to say, “I will not complain about the problem to God, instead I will tell my problem that I have a bigger God”. Success is nothing but simple disciplines practiced everyday that sum up to make us a happy person. When we are well- mannered and disciplined, then happiness itself will follow us. It is the fuel that keeps us going till the end. We can see disciplines in the Mother Nature itself; the seasons come and then go according to their respective time periods. However, if there are changes in the seasons, then the reason will only be us and our undisciplined acts towards nature. The Second World War had effected the whole world and had a great impact and turned Japan to ashes, but still, the Japanese people had an astounding growth and progress and it was due to the strict disciplines that the Japanese people utilized and maintained and not only

uch has written and debated about the unethical, illegal, arbitrary appointment in various departments by various writers and intellectuals, however government instead of taking a corrective measures to effectively stem the unabated ‘backdoor appointments’ it has rather exponentially expropriated to unimaginable level liquidating thousands of careers of educated youth. Backdoor appointments has become a standard procedure. It has in a way become ‘money spinning’ business for unscrupulous elements. Backdoor appointments thrive as a result of illicit clandestine marriage between politicians and bureaucrats; to benefit their kith and kin or those of their close subjects. What is illegal about backdoor appointments is the ‘breach of trust’ and laid down government rules which unambiguously calls for open exam for recruitment to any post without discrimination, bias or favour on the ground of socio-economic race, gender, cast, creed or religion. It is intriguing how appointments are blatantly made when the same has not been advertised, sanctioned nor requisitioned to NPSC. Which is the competent authority tasked with the responsibility to conduct exam for recruitment in government sector. It is commendable various students bodies and social organizations in their pursuit for just and honest society through RTI has brought to light humongous excessive ‘backdoor appointments’ in various department. It will be stimulating to see if government will initiate action on this issue or if the government will cover it upwith an absurd justification/clarification. As has been revealed through RTI query on backdoor appointments, it only confirmed our beliefs backdoor appointments is only ‘gaining ground’ and exacerbating in contrary to the government directive to all administrative head of department (AHoDs) to immediately cancel all such unethical, illegal appointments made in contravention of the laid down rules.
It is remotely possible unjustly act of ‘backdoor appointments’ will be censored. The heyday and hegemony over illegal appointments enjoyed by politicians and bureaucrats can only be check to some extent, if State Vigilance Commission (SVC) is made to exercise it’s given power to the fullest extent without interference from the Politicians, if at all government of the day is serious enough to see to it it’s directive issued directing AHoDs to cancel all illegal backdoor appointments. But to adapt to chameleon tactics to speak in correct political term and to act in contrary will be setting a pre-posterous precedent. Consequences of backdoor appointments are pernicious on state economy and those in service creating logjam in promotion. It incinerates the morals and affects the apparatus of the working structure. Backdoor appointments also give rise to multiple litigation, hampering the efficiency and working of the department. Political appointments riven the core of socio-economic equality. If the culture of political appointments is to be curtailed, Election Commission request to the government to amend the electoral law to empower to it either to postpone or countermand elections if evidence emerge of use of money to influence voter need to be amended. Election Commission request to insert clause ‘58B’ in the Representation of the People Act, if amended it will usher a paradigm shift in electioneering system in checking corruption and bribery. Most backdoor appointments are made as a vote bank. Nagas are desperately in need of young, raw, unpolluted politicians who share the dreams of the youth. The magnanimity of the backdoor appointments demands minute scrutiny. Impartial investigation commission should be set up to unearth the truth. The pot of sins continues to overflow showing no sign of abetting any time soon. P. Achumse Sangtam, Kiphire
that, even after being hit by Tsunami, Japan still keeps on growing with discipline. Disciplines and manners make a man, at all times, away from trouble. It is the art of having the ability to know when to speak, how to speak and what to speak. It is having the ability to control our actions and act according to the situation that we face in our day to day lives. For example: we cannot simply sing happily and cheerfully in a sad funeral. A well-mannered person ensures that his liberty does not destroy other’s liberty. For example: we have the liberty to play music but that doesn’t mean we play it so loud that it disturbs the whole neighbors. A person with these qualities keeps the environment clean for he/she is wise and knows the consequences that he/she will face if there is unclean and untidy environment. “It takes us a long way, in fact, it helps us to finish our journey perfectly”, as Albert Einstein said. Discipline is also one of the essential qualities in an army. As the famous General of WW II has stated, “Discipline is the art of teaching the armies to fear their officers more than their enemies”. Without it, no army can conquer nor can they win a war. Therefore, it is necessary that we develop these qualities. For it’s the simplest and the easiest way to success. Aremnochet, Kohima

For the sake of truth
t the outset, we, The RMSA Teacher’s (2015-16) batch with our heads ever high must take pride and proudly confess to one and all of we, being engaged in rendering our valuable services with utmost sincerity and dedication since w.e.f. February month 2016 until date even at the remotest of the places or to a far flung areas, some even cut-off from motorable/telecom services, braving with great passion against all odds/ hardships we had to face while performing our duties at par with the rest of the teaching communities and reiterates to continue with it in the same spirit even in future days. However, with much to our utter surprise and in total contradiction of our service’s and more to our embarrassed, discouragement or dissatisfaction we can say, our Government and the RMSA Nagaland have miserably failed on its part to acknowledged or recognized our noble endeavors with a great cause in a way of maliciously withholding our 4 months salaries w.e.f. February till May month without any clear justification. And such attitude with dubious character clearly lacking transparency and accountability at volume was never an uncalled for especially in a civilised society and should be termed as direct insult to our well established democratic models/ set ups and deserved a befitting condemnation of its standard from every right thinking denizen’s. For instances, who on earth
can ever imagine or expect of us to perform our duties with a rope tied tightly on our belly? Why does the state often come up with the same old cheap and bombastic bureaucratic excuses to cover its own Loophole’s? Let me quote it this way in a plain words “we never wish or like to beg our own entitlement with a begging bowl”. We do are human and deserved the same equal treatment with the rest of the people. We, the RMSA Teacher’s (201516) batch give an assurance it was never us or for that matter we shouldn’t be blamed of muddying the clear pool at any point of time and never will we start even in near future. We deserve what belongs to us at any cost and for that matter we are fully prepared to fight for our rights, if so required even for a jumbo showdown. With the march of times and the state shitting its own way by its choice of being a mute spectator rather adds to compound the already situation like uncertainty inspite our past turbulent years. For months we have been so passionate and cooperative though not with a willing heart to the state but, as the filled vacuum getting almost burst and in the event of which the government fail to change its stand we, will be compelled to vomit its venom for the sake of truth and justice to prevailed. “Victory be us”. Bakon Phom, President RMSA Teacher’s (2015-16) Longleng Unit
Auto rickshaw for commuters-bane or boon
W
okha town has recently seen an increase in the number of AutoRickshaws plying for commercial transport since the last decade and while the benefit and accessibility provided by the auto rickshaw cannot be taken for granted, with it comes certain responsibilities and measures to be undertaken by the Wokha District Auto Rickshaw Union (WDAU) in respect of dispensing efficient and reliable means of transport to the common man. While keeping in mind the positive aspect that an Auto Rickshaw contributes in the growth of the local economy, it is only fair to point out the drawbacks which can be looked at and dealt with in harmony as concerned citizens so as to move further up the ladder in the public transport sector. Among the many districts of Nagaland, apart from Dimapur the topography of Wokha Town presents a unique factor for the feasibility of plying the auto rickshaw; the area and location of the town (Wokha) nestled just below the valley of Mt.Tiyi and the NH-2 cutting through the suburb of Wokha starting from Longsa Village gate to New Wokha Village passes through every important location. The demand for parking space has raised substantially with the ever increasing number of private vehicles as well the auto rickshaw itself. Adding to it, the unauthorized and indiscriminate parking further impedes the free flow of traffic. The auto rickshaw driver lack of information and awareness regarding proper driving protocols and basic traffic laws is one of the major causes for almost every accident and reckless driving. Limiting the number of autos to a specific number will also prevent over crowding
However, in spite of the various problems posed by the Auto, if we are to make a weighing between the benefits and drawbacks, it isn’t rocket science to figure out that the positive benefits far outweigh the drawbacks. Hence the saying, the need of the many far outweighs the need of the few -Needs which can be effectively dealt with and rectified. Unemployment the bane of all modern economy can be effectively countered by encouraging the local indigenous people to invest in this sector. Few suggestions for safety and environmental concerns being taken into account, our current economy
and standard of living makes it irrational and selfish to advocate for discouraging the plying of the Auto Rickshaw. Despite the pros and cons, promoting the auto rickshaw in Wokha town remains a key factor in developing an integrated public transport (IPT) beneficial for the people. Time will only tell whether we as a growing economy is prepared to make a safe transition, until then it is our responsibility to create a platform where economic growth and social harmony can co-exist. Yiben R.Humtsoe, Chairman and Bonathung Shitio, Head Media Cell, Youth Initiative Wokha
Reader’s Post On tinted glasses
Sir,
Despite the Supreme Court order on complete ban on the use of dark control films on the vehicles across the country in 2012, the vehicles owner especially in Dimapur have started rampantly violating the apex court order and plying their vehicles blatantly without any sense of remorse. The use of tinted glasses on vehicles has proved to be a criminal paradise and social evil. Although black films cannot by itself commit a crime but can adversely assist in multiple crimes ranging from thick to thin transportation of illegal goods, movements of criminals etc. The ruling came after a series of kidnap and rape cases in which assailants used the cover of tinted windows to conceal their crime. Hence, as such vehicles help them in escaping after committing heinous crimes. All kinds of sun control films are prohibited, even if it is light in shade or dark in sun, those who violate the law should be fined and sunfilm should be removed on the spot. The enforcement agencies reprimand only the commoners; the rule of law should be equally applied to all irrespective of rank and files. And Nagas are so talented that if we see one we emulate the next minute. The police must regularly check those perpetrators who violate the law if their vehicles are found with tinted glass with stringent penalty to provide security for ensuring proper and adequate safety for all. Yimtiyongdang, 4th mile Dimapur

CPI(M) bats for alliance with Cong
CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury and other party leaders after meeting the family members of Judith D’Souza at her residence,who has reportedly been abducted from Kabul, in Kolkata on Sunday. (PTI) KOLKATA, JUN 11 (PTI): Keeping aside the official party line, the CPI(M) West Bengal committee Sunday batted in favour of carrying forward the alliance with Congress in the state. Asserting that their alliance will continue, CPI(M) state Secretary Surya Kanta Mishra and more than 50 members unitedly pitched in favour of the alliance with Congress during the two-day state committee meet. However, 13 state committee members opposed the decision of alliance with
Congress. Party General Secretary Sitaram Yechury and Politburo members Prakash Karat and M A Baby also participated in the meet. Mishra, during a press made, it clear that CPI(M) will work with Congress in the days to come. “We will work with all Left parties outside of the Left Front and also work together with democratic secular parties,” Mishra said. Evading a direct reply, Yechury said, “We have to unite all the Left and secu-
Bihar education department initiates ‘Operation Clean Up’
NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (PTI): Preparing for assembly polls in UP and Haryana, the Congress sunday brought in veterans Ghulam Nabi Azad and Kamal Nath as general secretaries in-charge of the two states as the party seeks to revive itself in the Hindi heartland after a string of electoral reverses. Azad, Congress’s Muslim face, takes charge of the party affairs in the key battleground state at a time when it is making attempts to woo the minorities and possibly work for an alliance with Mayawati’s BSP with which the leader has good relations. Madhusudan Mistr y, who was hitherto looking after Uttar Pradesh, will be the new general secretary incharge of Central Election Committee, while Shakeel Ahmed, incharge of Punjab and Haryana, has been relieved of the charge, Dwivedi. Congress president Sonia Gandhi effected the changes a day after the biennial elections to the Rajya Sabha which saw cross voting by some party MLAs in Uttar Pradesh and alleged deliberate faulty marking by its 14 legislators in Haryana which led to their votes being declared invalid and resulted in the defeat of Congress-backed candidate R K Anand. There were allegations of internal sabotage at the behest of former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda.
SIT to reopen 75 cases of 1984 anti-Sikh riots, AAP taunts BJP
NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (IANS): The anti-Sikh riots of 1984 could emerge as a major political issue in the run up to the assembly elections in Punjab, even as the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday flayed the BJP for waking up to the cause of the riot victims so late. “Reopen cases now? What did they do in one and half years? BJP set up SIT only to prevent AAP from forming effective SIT,” Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted on Sunday. The AAP leader’s comments came within hours of the central government ordering that a Special Investigation Team (SIT) appointed by the Union Home Ministry will reopen at least 75 cases related to the anti-Sikh riots that broke out after the assassination of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on October 31, 1984.
global police body that issuance of RCN against Mallya is “obligatory” on the part of Interpol as all due legal processes have been followed by Indian probe agencies to seek such a warrant against an accused to make him join probe and ensure justice to the victim (banks). It has also informed Interpol that the agency is seeking a proclaimed offender status against Mallya from a competent court. A decision in this regard is expected from a Mumbai court tomorrow. Earlier, Interpol had asked the ED to provide certain detailed information on the legal processes undertaken by the agency in the case before it can notify a RCN
against Mallya. The RCN was sought sometime back by the investigating officer of the case to make the beleaguered businessman join probe in the Rs 900 crore alleged loan fraud of the IDBI bank, which is also being probed by CBI. Yesterday, the ED’s Mumbai office had attached assets worth Rs 1,411 crore of Mallya and one of his company. Mallya had left India on March 2 using his diplomatic passport and is believed to be in the UK. An RCN is issued “to seek the location and arrest of wanted persons with a view to extradition or similar lawful action” in a criminal case probe. Once an RCN is issued,
future trial is also not a sham one”. “We want time bound trial so that justice could be delivered to the victims who have been waiting for last 32 years,” he said. Kejriwal had on June 6 written a letter to Prime Minister Modi and had complained that: “The SIT has failed to reopen even a single case. I urge you to either get your SIT to do something or kindly wind up this SIT and allow the Delhi government to set up an SIT for proper investigation and get justice for the victims.” A total of 3,325 people were killed in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and other states in the riots after Indira Gandhi was shot dead by her Sikh bodyguards on October 31, 1984. Delhi alone accounted for 2,733 deaths.

Vijay Mallya PMLA case: ED replies to Interpol NEW DELHI, JUN 12 (PTI): The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has sent a detailed communication, along with legal inputs, to the Interpol which had recently sought some “clarifications” from it before notifying an arrest warrant against liquor baron Vijay Mallya, who is wanted in a money laundering case emerging from an alleged Rs 900 crore bank loan fraud. The agency has told Interpol that it has followed all legal procedures for seeking a Red Corner Notice (RCN) against him. It has also said that orders were issued by the courts after hearing the counsels of ED and Mallya, officials said. The ED has told the
As per the norm, the SIT will issue advertisements regarding these cases and ask the victims and witnesses to join the probe, the official source said. The central gover nment’s decision comes in the wake of representations from the Sikh community, especially the 1984 riot victims, and ahead of the Punjab assembly elections early next year. Another AAP leader and spokesman Deepak Bajpai also told IANS: “The Centre has woken up so late. It appears the Narendra Modi government has decided to reopen some of the cases of 1984 anti-Sikh riots only after Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal wrote a letter to the Prime Minister.” Bajpai alleged that all the commissions and probes till now have been a “failure”, and hoped that “the
Interpol seeks to arrest the person concerned in any part of the world and notifies that country to take his or her custody for further action at their end. Mallya and others are being probed by the ED in the Rs 900 crore IDBI loan fraud case in which it registered a criminal case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) early this year. Britain had recently made it clear that Mallya cannot be deported and asked India to seek his extradition instead and the agency is mulling invoking the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) existing between the two countries to get this job done.
lessness to create gap between the nationalist organization and Naga public”. Rather, MIP said they were committed to do what their master had created them for. In this regard, NSCN (I-M) has appealed to those “innocent Nagas who have joined such band, to recon-
sider”. “Because the sweet laden objective they have articulated are nothing but to bury the glorious struggle and sacrifices of our people into a mere history and also to undermine the ultimate political aspiration which is closing nearer and nearer each passing day”, MIP added.

lar forces to fight against the undemocratic attack in Bengal.” CPI(M) for the first time since its humiliating electoral reverse organised the state committee meet to discuss the reasons behind the poll debacle and issue of forging an alliance with Congress in the state, by violating the official party line adopted in party congress. During the closed door meet, Mishra had said the condition of CPI(M) and Left Front would have been much worse had there been no alli-
ance with the Congress. He said had the CPI(M) not gone in favour of alliance in the state, they would have won less number of seats than the present tally. “He also said there is a need to carry forward the alliance in the state in order to resist the undemocratic attack on opposition parties of Bengal,” a senior state committee member said on condition of anonymity. Several pro-alliance state committee members had also lashed out at the central leadership for their dual stand on the issue of alliance. “The hesitation on the part of the central leaders to come out clean on the alliance in Bengal, has created confusion among the masses. The Politburo leaders themselves had said the state committee will take a call on alliance, but when we took the call, the central committee had hesitation to accept it and now they are saying that the decision was not in consonance with the party line,” the member said. Last Friday, several Left Front constituents had criticised the leadership of its major partner CPI(M) for “compromising” Left unity, alleging that it had forged an “opportunist political alliance” with Congress in the state. Earlier in the day, Congress had also made it clear that it will continue its alliance with the Left Front in West Bengal.

termed the board’s decision as arrogant and had gone on a nation-wide strike on May 20. The employee unions of these five associate banks have called for a strike on June 28 and July 29 to protest the proposed merger. The merged entity will create a banking behemoth, which can compete with the largest in the world with an asset base of Rs 37 trillion (Rs 37 lakh crore) or over USD 555 billion, with 22,500 branches and 58,000 ATMs as on December 2015. SBI alone has close to 16,500 branches, including 198 foreign offices spread across 36 countries. SBI first merged State Bank of Saurashtra with itself in 2008. Two years later, State Bank of Indore was merged. SBI has maintained since then that it would merge the others as well but none of its initiatives fructified due to lack of capital (which was pegged at least Rs 2,000 crore each per bank) and stiff opposition from the employee unions. Government has been considering merger of some of the state-run banks to create a stronger entity.

SBI has five associate banks -- State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur, State Bank of Travancore, State Bank of Patiala, State Bank of Mysore and State Bank of Hyderabad. “The idea is to merge all the five associate banks at the same time. They are on the same technology platform, which SBI has... it will not be a difficult process,” the source added. It is unclear whether the team which is looking into merger processes of the five subsidiary banks with SBI is also laying the groundwork for Bharatiya Mahila Bank’s inclusion at this juncture.

Mumbai, Jun 12 (PTI): State-run banking behemoth SBI has set up a crack team to prepare a framework for amalgamation of five associate banks with itself, even as the political opposition to the proposed move is gaining ground and the government approval is still awaited. “A team of 15-20 members has been set up and it has started working on the framework for the merger. The team is headed by a general manager and there are a few deputy general managers,” a source said. The team has been formed under the supervision of associate and subsidiaries department, which is being headed by managing director V G Kannan. “If everything works fine, in 3-4 months the process is likely to begin,” he said.

The NLEM and nonNLEM segments in May grew 2.6 per cent and 8.6 per cent, respectively after two months of decline, but were still below the average of 4.7 per cent and 12 per cent posted in the last 12 months. While volumes were sluggish for both NLEM and nonNLEM drugs, NLEM products were also hit by pricing cuts. Indian players and MNCs reported a moderate growth of 7.9 per cent and 7 per cent, respectively in May 2016. Under the non-NLEM category, growth in May for domestic players and MNCs almost doubled to 9 per cent and 7.1 per cent as against April’s 4.6 per cent and 3.3 per cent, respectively.

New Delhi, Jun 12 (PTI): After securing exemption from service tax this fiscal year onwards, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has asked the government to exempt it from this liability with retrospective effect from July, 2012. Capital markets regulator Sebi was asked way back in January 2013 by the Service Tax Department that “services tendered by Sebi” were liable to tax. Sebi, which regulates the entire gamut of capital markets including thousands of listed companies, brokers, mutual funds and several other entities, has however maintained that the services provided by it do not attract the provisions of service tax and has been seeking an exemption since then. After several rounds of communications between the tax authorities and the regulator in this regard, the government decided earlier this year to exempt Sebi from the ambit of service tax with a prospective effect from April 1, 2016. An announcement in this regard was made by
Mumbai, Jun 12 (PTI): Indian pharmaceutical market grew 7.7 per cent in May compared with 3.5 per cent in April, but the ban on fixed-dose combination (FDC) drugs remains an overhang, says a report. According to data from the AIOCD-AWACS, the market research wing of the All India Organisation of Chemists and Druggists (AIOCD), the pharmaceutical market saw a growth of 7.7 per cent in May as against 3.5 per cent previous month. “We believe the impact of the FDC ban should lessen going ahead as companies launch new combinations,” Religare research analyst Praful Bohra said in a report. On the other hand, the non-FDC category grew relatively better at 8.4 per cent in May as against 4.2 per cent in April, he added. The Centre recently banned 344 FDC drugs based on the findings of an expert panel. FDC drugs continued to witness weak growth, mostly in anti-infective and dermatology therapies. Therapy-wise, the antidiabetic, neurology/CNS and cardiac segments outperformed

All our country estimates are derived from data provided by governments to the IMF. “What we did not know at the time of publication is that for several decades Switzerland did not report its exports of gold. It was due to this omission of data from official Swiss government statistics that caused the issue now being researched by DRI,” said Tom Cardamone, Managing Director of Global Financial Integrity in an email response. He said Switzerland has recently begun reporting past gold exports to the IMF and we will incorporate that new trade data into our forthcoming annual update. The SIT, in its second report, has observed that since reports like those of Global Financial Integrity, which calculate illicit financial flows from various countries, are widely used in academic circles and it is very crucial to ascertain the veracity of such reports, as per the Finance Ministry release issued in February in which it announced that the DRI has been asked to look into the matter.

They said the DRI report has been shared with the SIT, which is considering sending the agency’s officials to select countries abroad, including the US and Switzerland, to assess the actual amount of illicit money. The sources said the actual amount of black money outflow -- through trade-based money laundering -- could be far less than mentioned in the report. “The exact assessment would be possible only when a team of officers go out and analyse all details. But it will be far less than USD 505 billion,” a source said. The GFI, however, in its response to a PTI query on the issue said the figures were consistent with the data provided by the governments of India and Switzerland to the International Monetary Fund. “GFI’s illicit flows figures for India were consistent with the data provided by the governments of India and Switzerland to the International Monetary Fund.

Global Financial Integrity, a non-profit research and advisory organisation operating from Washington, had in its report “Illicit Financial Flows from Developing Countries 2004–2013” estimated that black money outflow from India for the period was to the tune of USD 505 bn (about Rs 34 lakh crore, as per current exchange rate). The report had created quite a stir in the country following which the SIT, headed by former Supreme Court judge Justice M B Shah, had in February this year asked the DRI to ascertain the veracity of the findings. The DRI then sought relevant details from the Global Financial Integrity (GFI). According to the DRI’s findings, the amount of USD 505,555 million (or USD 505

travel documents 5,300 arrested in B’desh Multiple likely to be replaced anti-terror crackdown
Dhaka, Jun 12 (PTI): More than 5,300 criminal suspects, including 85 militants, have been arrested in Bangladesh as part of an intensified crackdown on Islamists to halt a wave of brutal attacks on minorities and secular writers, police said today. As many as 2,128 people have been arrested on the second day of a nationwide antiterror crackdown, police said, adding 48 of them belonged to various militant outfits. The other arrested militant suspects belonged to banned outfits like Jagrota Muslim Janata Bangladesh (JMJB) or Ansarullah Bangla Team (ABT). Altogether 5,320 people have been arrested, including 85 militants, since Friday morning, when the drive kicked off, police said. Yesterday, 3,192 people had been arrested. “The rest of the arrested 5,320 persons were mostly fugitives who are wanted in different criminal cases including narcotics charges,” a police spokesman said.
Trump calls China abuser of free trade Pittsburgh (US), Jun 12 (PTI): Branding China as the “biggest and best abuser” of free trade, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has alleged that the Communist trading giant was dumping its goods into the US, stealing intellectual property and imposing hefty taxes on American companies doing business in that country. “China is the biggest and best abuser. Mexico is a smaller version of China,” Trump told his cheering supporters in this steel city of Pittsburgh, which is said to be a key swing state for November general elections as he hit out at several countries including Japan, Germany, Saudi Arabia and Iran. Trump said he believes in free trade, but it needs to be fair. “I believe in free trade. But for free trade, you need to have smart people on our side. I want to make good deals. I do not want care what you call it,” he said. “I do not want China to dump steel into our country. They are dumping. They are steeling our intellectual property,” Trump alleged and warned them of consequences if he is elected as the new president of America. “If they do not behave, we will put tax on them. They (Chinese) tax us. But we do nothing about it. This is one-way street. ...We got ripped off,” he said. “If in November if you pull the right trigger, we are going to have so much fun together,” he said, urging people to come out in large number and vote in November presidential elections. The 69-year-old real estate tycoon from New York claimed he would have a good relationship with China and would enter into a deal with them that would benefit the US and create jobs in the country.

AKM Shahidul Hoque Bangladesh launched the drive after a high-level meeting held by Inspector General AKM Shahidul Hoque on Thursday. The anti-militant drive involved the paramilitary Border Guard Bangladesh and the elite anti-crime Rapid Action Battalion. Bangladesh has been witnessing a string of brutal attacks by Islamists. Islamic State and al-Qaeda in the Indian Peninsula have claimed some of the attacks but the government denies the presence of these groups in Bangladesh.
The government attributes the murders to homegrown militant outfits like JMB, saying key-opposition BNP and its fundamentalist ally Jamaat-e-Islami were patronising the attacks under an orchestrated plot against the government. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Friday told a meeting of her ruling Awami League party that police would stamp out the violence and vowed to catch “each and every killer”. The attacks since last year, which has left more than 30 people dead, has put Bangladesh under a global spotlight for failing to prevent such attacks. On Friday, a 60-year-old Hindu ashram worker was hacked to death by IS jihadists, days after another priest was killed by the same terrorist group in the Muslim-majority nation. In February, militants stabbed to death a Hindu priest at a temple and shot and wounded a devotee who went to his aid.
NSG: China unhappy with US backing India’s membership Beijing, Jun 12 (PTI): Notwithstanding a US push for India’s NSG membership, China today said members of the elite club “remain divided” on the issue of non-NPT countries joining it and insisted that there “was no deliberation” on the bid by India and other nations at the Vienna meeting. “There was no deliberation on any items related to the accession to the NSG by India or any other countries that are not signatories to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT),” Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hong Lei said in a statement while referring to the Vienna meeting that took place last week. He said the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) Chair Argentine Ambassador Rafael Mariano Grossi convened an unofficial meeting of the 48member group on June 9. “The Chair said that this meeting has no agenda and is only convened to heed opinions from all parties on the outreach of the NSG and prepare for a report to be submitted at the NSG Plenary Meeting in Seoul later this month (June 24),” he said. However, diplomatic sources in Vienna had said earlier that India’s membership was discussed at the meeting and talks had remained inconclusive. China has maintained that non-NPT signatories should not be admitted into NSG on the grounds that it would undermine efforts to prevent proliferation. Calling for “full discussions” within the NSG to reach an agreement on India’s admission, Hong said China would take part in the deliberations in a “constructive manner”. “China has noted that some non-NPT countries
aspire to join the NSG but when it comes to the accession by non-NPT countries, China maintains that the group should have full discussions before forging consensus and making decisions based on agreement,” he said. “The NPT provides a political and legal foundation for the international non-proliferation regime as a whole. China’s position applies to all non-NPT countries and targets no one in particular,” Hong said, without directly mentioning India’s application to join the Vienna-based group. China has been reportedly backing Pakistan’s bid to join the nuclear trading club. “The fact is that many countries within the group also share China’s stance,” Hong said in response to a question about China, New Zealand, Ireland, Turkey, South Africa and Austria objecting to India’s accession to the NSG at its meeting in Vienna. “There has been some discussion within the group on the NSG membership of nonNPT countries, but NSG members remain divided on this issue,” Hong said. “Looking forward, China will continue to support further discussion within the group to forge consensus at an early date. China will proceed with relevant discussion in a constructive manner,” Hong said. The US has been pushing for India’s membership. Ahead of the meeting here, US Secretary of State John Kerry had written a letter to the NSG member countries which are not supportive of India’s bid, saying they should “agree not to block consensus on Indian admission”.
Barcelona, Jun 12 (PTI): Thanks to new revolutionary technology, airline passengers could soon be able to travel through airports and borders with just a ‘secure single token’ eliminating the need of carrying multiple travel documents. Airline solutions and technology provider SITA is exploring the potential of newly-emerging ‘blockchain’ technology to provide travellers with a ‘secure single token’ which was previewed at the 2016 Air Transport IT Summit here in this Spanish city. The revolutionary technology provides the opportunity to allow secure biometric authentication of passengers throughout the journey across borders which could remove the need for multiple travel documents without passengers having to share their personal data. SITA’s technology research team, SITA Lab, is researching how using virtual or digital passports in the form of a secure single token on mobile and wearable devices could reduce complexity, cost and liability around document checks during the passenger journey.
SL needs special courts to try corrupts: minister Colombo, Jun 12 (PTI): Sri Lanka needs special courts to expedite trials of graft cases involving former strongman Mahinda Rajapaksa’s aides who were allegedly indulged in mass- scale corruption, a senior minister has said. “We need special courts to try these people. Now they go to court, apply for bail, then come out and ask us if we had been able to catch them. Some even go to higher courts to prevent their arrests,” Minister of Western Development and Megapolis Champika Ranawaka said at the southern town of Galle. The current government came to power with the pledge to bring to book the members of the former president Rajapaksa’s administration accused of mass-scale corruption. Although several members of the Rajapaksa family were arrested, all have obtained bail amidst accusations of anticorruption drive becoming slow and painstaking. A special police unit for financial crimes was set up yet not a singed investigation has led to a conclusion and conviction. Ranawaka said as the existing legal system lacked finesse the government needs to look at the possibility of constituting special courts to tackle the corrupt. He said the cur rent government’s mandate is to eradicate corruption from public life. The Rajapaksa family has faced many accusations of corruption and abuse of power since President Maithripala Sirisena ended the former strongman’s 10-year rule.
Jim Peters, CTO, SITA, said, “Our vision is for seamless secure travel. But the underlying design of today’s computer systems means that there are multiple exchanges of data between various agencies and multiple verification steps, which reduces the ability to have a single global system”. “Now blockchain technology offers us the potential to provide a new way of using biometrics. It could enable biometrics to be used across borders, and at all airports, without the passenger’s details being stored by the various authorities,” he said. SITA’s researchers are investigating a versatile and secure system to make the single travel token work globally, across all borders. Blockchain technology allows ‘privacy by design’ so that passenger data can be secure, encrypted, tamper-proof and unusable for any other purpose. It also eliminates the need for a single authority to own, process or store the data. The crypto-led computer science of blockchain provides a network of trust, where the source and history of the data is verifiable by everyone.
Petition calls on Obama to unshield Bhopal leak culprits
Hollywood actor Martin Sheen taking part in International Campaign for Justice in Bhopal. An international coalition working to address the grave injustices suffered by half a million Bhopalis. Washington, Jun 12 (PTI): An online petition on the White House website has called on the Obama administration to stop shielding American multinational Dow Chemical from accountability for corporate crimes in the 1984 Bhopal Gas Tragedy case.
The petition has crossed the threshold of one lakh signatures, making it mandatory for the White House to respond. Titled ‘Uphold International Law! Stop Shielding Dow Chemical from Accountability for Corporate Crimes in Bhopal, India’, the petition dated May 15, says that the more than three decades of protection to Union Carbide (UCC) -- which is now owned by Dow Chemicals -- must end. “We insist that the US government meet its obligations under Treaty and international law by immediately serving notice upon Dow to attend court in Bhopal on July 13, 2016,” said the petition, which as of June 12 had garnered 102,000 signatures. Tonnes of toxic Methyl Isocyanate (MIC) gas leaked from Union Carbide’s Bhopal factory on the intervening night of December 2-3, 1984, killed nearly 25,000 people and injured half million others. “India charged UCC with manslaughter, but UCC refused to show for trial. Dow Chemical bought UCC in 2001 but has not made UCC available to face charges,” the petition said. “Under a Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty, India sent four notices to the US Department of Justice to summon Dow to explain UCC’s whereabouts. The DoJ has ignored or obstructed every notice. The same DoJ made BP pay USD 4 billion in criminal fines and penalties for Deepwater Horizon. 31 years of US protection of UCC and Dow must end,” the petition said.

A heart of gold stopped beating Loving eyes closed to rest If love along could have saved you You never would have died. God proved to us that he only takes the best. Never a day goes by that you're not in our hearts and soul Till we meet again. Your loving wife, brothers, sisters, children, grand children, great grand children, relatives and loved ones
Always caring on this day, one year ago to our new Home. Our heart within our heart, Nurtured, loved and cherished for years tore away into two One filled with heartache & the otheryou took away. I wipe away the tears though the ache in my heart stays I visit your resting place & place flowers with care But no one sees my heart as I turn away & leave you. It was easy to love you but missing you never goes away. The days flew by, I don’t know how, but my heart ache & tears remain Our ties of love is broken leaving a wound which will never heal And I wish it is only a dream. It is sad to walk the road alone instead of side by side To some you may be forgotten, to others a part of their past, But to me who loved and lost you, gave me years of happiness then came sorrow and tears Are beautiful memories of happy days together, we once knew and can never be given away, though I never wanted memories but you. Always every evening I seem to have a way of wandering back To meet you on the road of yesterday May be few more steps along life’s road alone and perhaps a few more years then we will meet again with our love Angels one by one Along the road to yesterday which l eads to you.

Eric Clapton reveals incurable damage to his nervous system E
ric Clapton has revealed he is suffering incurable damage to his nervous system which has left him struggling to play his guitar. The legendary rock guitarist, who has publicly fought addictions to cocaine, heroin, prescription drugs and alcohol, said that although he is grateful to be alive, he has been debilitated by his illness. He said: ‘I’ve had quite a lot of pain over the last year. It started with lower back pain, and turned into what they call peripheral neuropathy - which is where you feel like you have electric shocks going down your leg. ‘And I’ve had to figure out how to deal with some other things from getting old.’ Mr Clapton, 71, said that it is now ‘hard work’ to play the guitar and he has had to ‘come to terms’ with the fact that his condition will not improve. ‘Because I’m in recovery from alcoholism and addiction to substances, I consider it a great thing to be alive at all. By rights I should have kicked the bucket a long time ago. ‘For some reason I was plucked from the jaws of hell and given another chance,’ he said. He added: ‘I can still play. I mean, it’s hard work sometimes, the physical side
of it - just getting old, man, is hard.’ The veteran rock guitarist first rose to fame in the 1960s with the bands John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers, Cream and Blind Faith before launching a successful solo career in the 1970s. While his career boomed in the Seventies, Mr Clapton’s personal life descended into addiction and a string of doomed affairs, including with model Pattie Boyd, who was married to The Beatles guitarist George Harrison. He converted to Christianity but his heroin addiction became so severe that he was
forced to temporarily give up performing, famously passing out while performing at a charity concert in Madison Square Garden in 1971. Speaking to Classic Rock magazine, he said: ‘I don’t know how I survived - the Seventies especially. ‘There was one point there where they were flying me to hospital in St Paul [Minnesota] and I was dying, apparently - I had three ulcers and one of them was bleeding. ‘I was drinking three bottles of brandy and taking handfuls of codeine, and I was close to checking out. It’s amazing that I’m still here, really.’

Mr Clapton married Miss Boyd in 1979, giving up heroin but beginning his battle with alcoholism. He described Miss Boyd in his 2007 autobiography as a ‘salve-cum-partner’ and frequently beat her and forced her to have sex with him. He said: ‘I kind of regret losing an awful lot of time to just being a vegetable - pickled.’ He said: ‘My life is really blessed. I’ve got a wonderful family, a fantastically beautiful wife, in every way, great kids, and I can still play.’ Mr Clapton, who has performed at the Royal Albert Hall more than 200 times during his lifetime, also spoke about the struggles of getting older. ‘I mean, it’s hard work sometimes, the physical side of it - just getting old, man, is hard. ‘But I love to play, still. I sit in the corner of our front room with a guitar, and I play in the morning and I rest in the afternoon... Life is good,’ he said. The guitarist, who has just released his 23rd album, I Still Do, said the record is far from a farewell to his career but the title is a tribute to friends, family and other musicians who have passed away in recent years.
Adele slams Bowie producer for his comments
A
dele has responded to comments made about her voice by David Bowie’s producer. Tony Visconti suggested last week (June 8) that the singer’s vocals could have been “manipulated” to make them sound better. “You turn the radio on and it’s fluff, you are listening to 90 per cent computerized voices,” he said. “We know Adele has a great voice but it’s even questionable if that is actually her voice or how much has been manipulated. We don’t know.” Visconti worked with Bowie throughout the late singer’s career, from his second album in 1969 to final album ‘Blackstar’. Consequence Of Sound reports that, at a concert afterwards, the British singer responded to his suggestions between songs. “Some dickhead tried to say that my voice was not me on record,” Adele said. “Damn it”. Meanwhile, it was confirmed last week (June 9) that both Adele and Bowie are to be celebrated in a new National Portrait Gallery exhibition.

F
ormer Miss Nagaland 2014 Veneinem Sings o n g wa s c r ow n e d ‘Miss Queen of India East 2016’ at a glittering Pageant in Cochin. Ms. Veneinem had earlier won the Miss North East 2016 in April at Imphal , Manipur organised as part of ‘Making Manipur’ which led her to represent North East at the Queen of India Pageant organised by Pagesus at Cochin, India. Besides prestigious title, Veneinem also won the Miss Viewers’ Choice and Miss Beautiful Hair sub-titles. Veneinem, a student of St. Joseph’s College, Kohima and Miss Nagaland 2014 is also the State Election Icon and Ambassador of Making Manipur. A humble and God fearing person, she has achieved so much within a short period setting a good example to the younger generation that nothing is impossible beyond measures. As she rightly puts, “Believe in yourself, have faith and set your mind and heart to it and everything will be possible.” People from all walks of life gathered at Churachandpur Staduim, Manipur to felicitate Ms. Veneinem for her success. She was also given a warm welcome at Dimapur Airport upon her arrival. She attributed her success to her parents and the
Almighty God. She really appreciates the support received from relatives, friends, well wishers, religious leaders, mentors, especially Kuki Beauty Society, EGON and BASN.
In a short message to the youths, she said, “Unless we try we will not realise our capability, therefore take the risk, go forward, take up new challenges with Faith and see Gods Plan for us.”
Amitabh Bachchan: We are an ordinary
T
here is a lot of aura surrounding the Bachchan family, but megastar Amitabh Bachchan says that he does not find anything special in the way they conduct themselves. In an interview with PTI, Bachchan speaks about his family, son Abhishek, granddaughter, Panama Papers controversy and working with Ram Gopal Varma again on ‘Sarkar 3’. Here are the excerpts: We often see the Bachchan family together at the screening of films be it of Abhishek or Aishwarya. Do you
critically analyse each other’s work within the family? We are ordinary beings and we conduct ourselves ordinarily. Yes, just as any other would discuss a film, we as a family often do similar. Abhishek has successfully diversified into numerous things beyond his core competency of acting. To you, is he an actor first or an entrepreneur? To me, he is my son first How does Jaya react to and last. His core competency, his diversified fields, are added the work that you do today? attractions and accomplish- Is she impressed? A t t i m e s. . . N o t a l ments for me.
ways...!! We have been hearing about your granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda getting into films. Is she inclined towards joining the film industry? That news is incorrect. She is busy with her advanced studies just yet, having recently graduated from school. You would be teaming up with Ram Gopal Varma for ‘Sarkar 3’. Can his slide be arrested and do you feel he has it in him to come out with another critically acclaimed work? Every individual in the
film world has been through these so called ‘slides’. The slides that you observe on the playing fields of children in a park are a good symbolic example. When the kid slides down one of these contraptions, he or she reaches the ground and gets up, he doesn’t disappear into the earth below. Ram Gopal Varma is a most noteworthy talent and has given us some very valuable iconic films. I enjoy working with him. Whether the work that I do shall succeed or achieve critical acclaim is for the audience to decide.

fter keeping mum for over two years, Sussanne Khan has finally opened up about her divorce with Hrithik Roshan. In an interview with Femina magazine, the 37-year-old Interior designer said, “We had reached a stage in our lives where I decided that it’s better we weren’t together. It was important to be aware and not be in a false relationship.” Adding on to this, she said that though they don’t hangout together anymore, they are in constant touch with each other and are very com-
mitted towards their kids. “We are respectful towards each other. When children are involved, it’s important to put our differences aside and protect them,” Sussanne said. The interior designer and the ‘Bang Bang’ actor, who tied the knot on December 20, 2000, called it quits after 14 years of their marriage. The two announced split back in 2014. Some reports claimed Sussanne’s closeness to Arjun Rampal as the reason behind the couple’s split, while others blamed it on Hrithik’s closeness to Kangana Ranaut.

However, time appeared to have stood still for The Corrs as they looked remarkably youthful during their performance at the Isle Of Wight Festival on Saturday. Andrea, 42, Sharon, 46 and Caroline, 43, make up the band alongside their older brother Jim, 51, and created a whopping five platinum albums during the 1990s. Youngest sister, Andrea, stole the show as she flicked back her raven locks and even treated the crowds to a spot of Irish dancing to go alongside her incredible vocals. The lead singer cut a sophisticated figure as she dressed all in black for the occasion and flashed just a hint of her sultry lace bra in plunging camisole. And her super short leather skirt was adorned with black tassels which bounced around rhythmically while she bopped along to the music created by her sisters. Andrea also highlighted
Remembering Christina Grimmie
E
ven before she earned a coveted four-chair turnaround on The Voice with a dazzling performance of the Miley Cyrus hit, “Wrecking Ball,” Christina Grimmie -who was murdered at the age of 22 on Friday night, apparently by a deranged fan, at a meetand-greet after a performance in Orlando, Florida -- was on a fast track to stardom. When she was just a 15-year-old teenager in her hometown of Marlton, New Jersey, Grimmie began uploading videos of herself singing on YouTube under the name zeldaxlove64. Her first videos in 2009 -- which included the Hannah Montana hit “Don’t Wanna Be Torn” -- resonated with fans on the video sharing channel, and within a year it was another Miley Cyrus cover of “Party in the USA” that launched her into early YouK
Y M C
Tube stardom. She also posted video blogs that saw her talking about her other passion: video games. Her favorite? Zelda. “I’m that girl that’s a hardcore musician and loves to sing and write and play instruments, but at the same time loves video games, metal music, and just being a goofy person,” she said in an interview with Teen Ink. Police Identify Man Who Killed Christina Grimmie It wasn’t long -- a year
-- before Selena Gomez’s stepfather Brian Teefy discovered her talent, and signed on as her manager. He lined up dates for her opening for Gomez in 2011; that year Grimmie joined the first-ever Digitour socialmedia trek. Grimmie’s real star turn took place in 2014, when she auditioned for The Voice. She stunned from the first note, joining Adam Levine’s team and consistently delivering impressive performances through the Battle and Knockout rounds. She continued to impress with reinterpretations of Katy Perry’s “Dark Horse” and Jason Mraz’s “I Won’t Give Up.” Christina Grimmie’s Manager Sets Up GoFundMe Page for Family “You’re more comfortable up there than I am,” the Maroon 5 singer said. “This person could be a huge star.”

Dogged Russia deny England full points
A
last-gasp Vasili Berezutski goal helped Russia earn a precious 1-1 draw with a dominant England in their first Group B match of Euro 2016 at the Stade Velodrome on Saturday. Two minutes into the four added injury time, the Russia captain headed Igor Smolnikov’s cross past England goalkeeper Joe Hart. Second half substitute Denis Glushakov was first announced as the scorer but footage later showed that the ball had already crossed the line before he touched it.
England took the lead in the 73rd minute when Eric Dier smashed the ball into the top corner from a free-kick just outside the box, after his Tottenham teammate Kane had walked over it. Another Spurs player Dele Alli had ear ned the chance for England after he had fouled by Russia defender Georgy Schennikov. England manager Roy Hodgson replaced captain Wayne Rooney straight after Dier’s goal and introduced Jack Wilshere in an attempt to
retain possession, but the decision backfired because Rooney was a key role in the midfield. Hodgson said after the match, “When you concede with a minute left, it is a bitter disappointment. After one dodgy spell at the start of the second half, if we take away that 15 minutes, we were in total control.” England, whose best feat in the tournament was reaching the semifinals 20 year ago, will have to wait for their first opening game victory in European Championship history.
New Delhi, Jun 12 (PTI): A final shot at Olympic berths for most of them, a nine-member strong Indian boxing team, comprising the likes of Asian Games gold-medallist Vikas Krishan and Commonwealth silver-winner L Devendro Singh, today left for the AIBA World Olympic Qualification Event June 16 in Baku, Azerbaijan. Only one Indian boxer -- Shiva Thapa (56kg) -- has qualified for the Olympics so far and except for Vikas (75kg), who has made the cut for the final Olympic qualifiers via the AIBA Pro Boxing route, the tournament in Azerbaijan is the last chance for the rest of the squad. The event in Baku has 39 qualifying spots up for grabs two each in the 49kg and 52 category, five each in 56kg, 60kg, 64kg, 69kg, 75kg and 81kg, and just one each in 91kg and +91kg. India’s best bets, apart from Devendro and Vikas, would be Sumit Sangwan (81kg), a former Asian gold medallist, who has been laid low for some time owing to injuries. The Team: L Devendro Singh (49kg), Gaurav Bidhuri (52kg), Dheeraj Rangi (60kg), Manoj Kumar (64kg), Mandeep Jangra (69kg), Vikas Krishan (75kg), Sumit Sangwan (81kg), Amritpreet Singh (91kg), Satish Kumar (+91kg).
Saina clinches second Australian Open title Sydney, Jun 12 (PTI): Indian ace Saina Nehwal received a huge boost ahead of the Rio Olympics as she clinched her second Australian Open title after defeating China’s Sun Yu in a thrilling three-game final of the Super Series badminton tournament here today. The 26-year-old from Hyderabad eked out a 11-21 21-14 21-19 over the World No. 12 Sun in a fighting summit clash that lasted an hour and 11 minutes here. London Olympics bronze medallist, Saina, who had beaten two world champions -Thailand’s Ratchanok Intanon (2013) and China’s Yihan Wang (2011) in the quarterfinals and semifinals --, thus clinched her maiden title of the season and pocketed a cheque of USD 56,250. It is Saina’s second Australian Open victory, having clinched the title in 2014 as well. It ended a rather long title drought for the celebrated Indian, whose previous title before today was at the India Super Series in New Delhi in last year. Saina had defeated Sun five times in the last five outings but she faced a tough challenge against the 22-yearold Chinese, who took just 18 minutes to wrap up the opening game at the Sydney Olympic Park. Sun dished out a fastpaced game, which Saina failed to break initially. The Indian

Kingston, Jun 12 (IANS): Triple World and Olympic champion Usain Bolt graced local fans with a blistering season’s best run of 9.88 seconds to win the men’s 100 metres at the inaugural Jamaica National Racers Grand Prix now on at the National Stadium. His is the second fastest time this year in the event, reports CMC. Bolt, the world’s fastest man, won ahead of Nickel Ashmeade (9.94s) and his Racers Track Club teammate Yohan Blake (9.94s) in a positive 1.0 metres per second wind speed here on Sunday. Former World record holder Asafa Powell finished fourth in a time of 9.98s. The highly anticipated event, which was the highlight of the meet, did not disappoint the spectators in the almost-packed stadium. Bolt, running from lane four, stumbled out of the blocks but the towering figure quickly recovered and burst through the middle of Powell and Blake, who were in lanes three and five, respectively. Ashmeade, out in lane eight, closed well to separate the big trio in what was a blanket finish for the minor places.

Sun used her deceptive shots to wriggle out of tricky situations and also covered the front court well to lead 6-4. Saina grabbed a couple of points to draw level and with Sun sending the shuttle outside twice, the Indian led 10-8. She entered the interval with a three-point lead when Sun hit the net. The Chinese grabbed two quick points after the break but Saina continued to break the pace by playing few attacking shots and drawing the Chinese close to the net with deceptive strokes.

The US goalkeeper Brad Guzan had to make one crucial save late in the first half, getting low to deny Dario Lezcano, but he was far busier in the second half, finishing with seven total saves, after Yedlin received yellow cards in the 47th and 48th minutes. Paraguay did mount several late threats. The most dangerous came in the 82nd minute, as Jorge Benitez shot was well saved by an agile Guzan.

A brilliant strike from Luka Modric sealed a 1-0 win for Croatia in their opening Euro 2016 fixture against Turkey in Paris on Sunday. Ante Cacic’s men had plenty of attacking chances throughout the game, but it was a late first-half strike from the Real Madrid man that saw Croatia take the three points. The victors twice hit the woodwork in the second half, while a header from Ozan Turfan in the opening period was the pick of the chances for the Turks. The game started with great pace and Croatia went close inside three minutes as Darijo Srna whipped in a ball from the right for Ivan Rakitic, but it just ran too long. The Croatia captain was once again involved as he played a ball from the same flank that was headed towards goal by Mandzukic but Hakan Balta was there to clear, before a great cross form Ivan Perisic was also met by the head of Marcelo Brozovic, but he skewed it wide. It was on the half-hour mark when Turkey had their best chance of the game as Arda Turan crossed from the right, with Tufan rising above Domagoj Vida but his header was scrambled off the line by Danijel Subasic. But Croatia went ahead 11 minutes later and it was a brilliant hit from Modric who latched onto the end of a Selcuk Inan clearance to fire the ball over the defence and past an unsuspecting Volkan Babacan. Srna could twice have added to Croatia’s tally inside the opening ten minutes of the second half. He firstly rattled the crossbar with a freekick before volleying just wide after Babacan’s clearance from Perisic fell into his path. Croatia made the most of their changes in the final five minutes to see out the game, and take a deserved three points from the Parc des Princes.
