Britain votes to quit EU, shocks world

DAVID CAMEROON QUITS ; STOCK MARKETS CRASH; OIL PRICES DIP

David Cameroon outside No.10 Downing Street (R) Boris Johnson, former London Mayor speculated to be the next British PM.

LONDON, JUN 24 (PTI): British prime minister David Cameroon had placed his reputation on the referendum urging his country to vote to Remain but was defeated by 52% to 48% despite London, Scotland and Northern Ireland backing staying in. Having voted to leave the EU, voters have left the fate of the 28-nation bloc and Prime Minister David Cameron with no option but to announce he would step down by October,2016.

The official results were announced on Friday with the Leave campaign receiving 52 percent in Thursday’s historic referendum. Cameron, who had backed the campaign to remain in the EU, said the British people made “a very clear decision to take a different path.

“As such, I think the country requires fresh leadership to take it in this direction.

I will do everything I can as

Truckers laud AR DIMAPUR, JUN 24 (NPN): Transport truckers from Nagaland and Assam, who regularly ply between Nagaland and Manipur via National Highway-2 (erstwhile NH-39), have lauded the 35 AR based at Hengbung under Sadar Hills in Manipur for its attempt to “root out anti social elements” Representatives of truckers unions told this reporter that said they often face extortion threats and kidnappings for ransom at various locations along NH-2 especially in the places inhabited by Kuki outfits under the Suspension of Operations (SoO).

The unions alleged although despite contacting concerned police stations and 25 AR based in that area, they failed to extend help. As such, the unions said the 35 AR did commendable job by apprehending some anti-social elements. They said such act displayed 35 AR’s sincerity towards providing security to those in need. The unions also questioned the stance of various NGOs in the region that were all out demanding the release of the apprehended.

The unions asked as to where those NGOs were when armed groups kidnapped innocent drivers, tortured them, demanded ransom and held hostage for ransom. The unions said though such anti-social activities took place right under the nose of those NGOs they were least bothered.

Therefore, the unions said they called on the security personnel to come forward and ensure the safety of the truckers plying along that road.

PM to steady the ship in the coming weeks and months.

But I do not think it would be right for me to try to be the captain that steers our country to its next destination.

“This is not a decision I’ve taken lightly, but I do believe it is in the national interest to have a period of stability and then the new leadership required. “There is no need for a precise timetable today, but in my view, we should aim to have a new PM in place by the start of the Conservative Party Conference in October,” a tearful Cameron said.

Britain is set to be the first country to leave the EU since its formation - but the Leave vote does not immediately mean Britain ceases to be a member of the 28-nation bloc.

That process could take a minimum of two years, with Leave campaigners suggesting during the referendum campaign that it should not be

completed until 2020 - the date of the next scheduled general election.

UKIP leader Nigel Farage hailed it as the UK’s “independence day”, while Boris Johnson said the result would not mean “pulling up the drawbridge”.

Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she was “absolutely determined” to keep Scotland in the EU so a second Scottish independence referendum was now “highly likely”. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, who called for the UK to remain in the EU but was accused of a lukewarm campaign, said poorer communities were “fed up” with cuts and felt “marginalised by successive governments”.

“Clearly there are some very difficult days ahead,” he said, adding that “there will be job consequences as a result of this decision”. US president Barack Obama said “the

people of the United Kingdom have spoken, and we respect their decision.

US presidential candidate Donald Trump thrust himself into the heart of Britain’s vote to leave the European Union on Friday, calling it a “great thing” and drawing parallels to his own insurgent campaign.

Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, said in a statement: “This time of uncertainty only underscores the need for calm, steady, experienced leadership in the White House to protect Americans’ pocketbooks and livelihoods, to support our friends and allies, to stand up to our adversaries, and to defend our interests.

German chancellor Angela Merkel expressed “great regret” at the outcome, and EU chiefs said they expected the UK to begin negotiations to leave “as soon as possible, however painful that process

may be”. Francois Hollande, French President, said “ This is a painful choice and it is deeply regrettable both for the UK and Europe. But this choice is theirs and we must respect it, accepting all the consequences.”The British vote is a tough test for Europe.”

Stock markets crashed, oil prices tumbled and the pound fell to a 31-year low on Friday as Britain’s unprecedented vote to leave the European Union shocked investors and dragged the region, the world’s largest economic bloc, into a new era of uncertainty.

The pound hit its lowest level since 1985, diving as much as 11 percent before recovering slightly to trade 6 percent lower at $1.3917. Oil prices crashed, with the US benchmark diving $1.95 to $48.16 a barrel. The Nikkei 225 plummeted about 8 percent, its biggest fall since 2008.

TO MOVE NO CONFIDENCE AGAINST IBOBI

Zeliang hopeful of early solution DIMAPUR, JUN 24 (NPN): Nagaland chief minister T.R. Zeliang and some cabinet colleagues are in Delhi waiting for an appointment to meet prime minister Narendra Modi.

Zeliang and his colleagues will urge the prime minister to bring early solution to the Naga political issue.

While in Guwahati before leaving for Delhi, Zeliang expressed confidence that an early solution was on the anvil and that once the Naga political problem was solved, the state could be as peaceful as Sikkim or Mizoram.

Before departing for New Delhi, the chief minister told a regional daily that National Security Advisor Ajit Kumar Doval and Interlocutor RN Ravi assured him that there were no major differences between the negotiating parties and that both sides were keen on finding a solution to the problem.

He said Ravi had told him earlier there were no major hurdles as such and that only some little differences were to be sorted out.

“We are hopeful of an early solution,” he said, adding that all the sixty legislators would be meeting the Prime Minister to impress upon him to expedite the peace agreement.

“We are waiting for an appointment with the Prime Minister,” he said adding that communication from

the PMO was expected soon after the Prime Minister returned from his foreign tour.

He said the Prime Minister had insisted on meeting a select team of the legislators, but relented to the request when told that all the legislators wanted to meet him personally and hear about the development from him.

Pace of urbanization in Nagaland alarming: S.I. Jamir Correspondent

KOHIMA, JUN 24 (NPN): Considering the urban infrastructure deficit, the advisor urban development, S.I. Jamir, has expressed concern over the “alarming pace of urbanization” in Nagaland.

He cautioned that “at this rate urban population would take overtake the rural population in the near future”.

S.I Jamir was speaking as chief guest at the foundation stone laying programme for construction of children’s park under Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT)

by Kohima Municipal Council and Urban Development department at new reserve Phesama here on Friday.

Urban Development advisor pointed out that during the census 2011, the rural area recorded negative 14% growth rate while urban area recorded 69%.

He maintained that this scenario presented a number of challenges to urban policy makers and planners on sever-

al issues including availability of infrastructure services, poverty, housing, proliferation of slums, employment, solid waste, environment, traffic and transportation. Jamir said whatever limited internal revenue the state generated was mostly from the urban areas.

Since Nagaland achieved statehood in 1963, he said total population had increased by 5.3 times in terms of absolute number while urban population increased by 18.4 times, which, he described was “remarkable”.

Jamir also said that the state has recorded the highest rate of urbanization in India during the last two censuses 2001 and 2011. During 2001, he said the average rate of urbanization at the national level was 21% but Nagaland recorded 69%.

Disclosing that the centre has earmarked untied fund of 10% of total allocation under AMRUT as incentives to states that were able to achieve reforms, the advisor said if state was to avail the incentives, “we should be pre-

pared to undertake reforms, which require the cooperation of the stakeholders.”

Asserting that the state was strategically located for India’s Act East Policy, he urged the department officials to be prepared mentally and technically to face the challenges of urbanization.

Delivering keynote address, urban development director, Ken Keditsu, stated that for the financial year 2015-16 an amount of Rs. 34.98 crore was sanctioned (central share Rs. 31.48 crore and state share Rs. 3.50 crore) and administrative and office expenses at Rs. 97 lakh.

While receiving the list, the two leaders, Dr Sarma and Das have reportedly discussed with the MLAs whether they would prefer to join the BJP after resigning from the Congress or defect from the Congress government to form another party in the line of Arunacha Pradesh.

Later, the two leaders invited the MLAs to Delhi for meeting with central leaders at their personal level which the source said as part of screening of the MLAs by the national leaders.

It is learnt that the MLAs would also discuss with the Central leaders on whether it would be better to move a no confidence motion in the State Assembly against Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh government like that was done in Arunachal Pradesh and form a new government with outside from the BJP. They are also looking for another option of mass resignation from their respective posts by the MLAs and pave the way for holding early elections to the state assembly, the source disclosed.

In addition to the Congress MLAs, several others from opposition parties are also in close touch with the central leaders for joining the saffron camp to topple 14-years old Ibobi government in the state, the source maintained.

He said the projects included drainage system and parks at Rs. 14.04 crore in Kohima and water supply, sewerage and septage management, urban transport and green spaces/parks at Rs. 20.94 crore in Dimapur.

On the financial outlay for 2016-17, Keditsu informed

that an amount of Rs.40 crore has been allocated (central share Rs. 36 crore and state share Rs.4 crore) while administrative and office expenses at Rs. 96 lakh.

He said the projects to be taken up were storm water drainage and a park in Kohima and water supply, storm water drainage and a park in Dimapur.

Further, Keditsu also highlighted some of the milestones achieved under the scheme. UD director said AMRUT was a programme for the ULBs, however, he added that since ULBs were not properly equipped with technical staffs at the moment, the ministry has given a provision in the guidelines that state government could execute the projects by parastatal agencies of the state or central government.

In this regard, he said a Memorandum of Understanding would have to be executed amongst the state government, the parastatal agencies and the concerned municipality.

Polytechnic site most feasible: YASU KOHIMA, JUN 24 (NPN): Even as twenty villages under Sakshi block and Longleng sadar of Longleng district have served a 15 day-ultimatum on the government to revoke the order for establishment of Polytechnic institution at Yongnyah, the Yongnyah Area Students’ Union (YASU), comprising of nine villages under 49 Tamlu A/C, has appreciated the government of Nagaland for selecting the site at Yungho, Yongnyah village. In a press release, YASU president Baungan Phom said selecting the present site at Yungho for setting up technical institution would benefit the people of Phom in particular and Nagas in general to great extent. The union said Yungho was the most feasible site. It stated that state government had responded to the “educational plight” of the Phom people by approving setting up of technical institution in district. YASU stated that the people of the area would extend full support and cooperation to the department in the execution of works.

He lived life to the fullest, In the truest sense of the word; Faithfully serving the most High, Untiring in his zeal to preach the gospel; Till his last breath.

He left behind many aching hearts, To be with the God he loved and served.

Words cannot express the feelings in our hearts to everyone who supported us by your various expressions of condolences, that is being extended to our family during this difficult time of our beloved Rev. Lano Longchar, who willingly left us to be with his Heavenly Father, whom he loved with all his being. Your kind and thoughtful expressions of sympathy is deeply appreciated and gratefully acknowledged. We are consoled that he is now in eternal peace and glory.

PM Modi, Putin vow to take forward India-Russia ties

PM Narendra Modi shakes hands with Russian President Vladimir Putin during a bilateral meeting in Tashkent on Friday on the sidelines of SCO Summit. (PTI) TASHKENT, JUN 24 (PTI): India and Russia Friday discussed ways to enhance cooperation in the civil nuclear energy and hydrocarbon sector as Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Russian President Vladimir Putin vowed to take forward the special and privileged bilateral partnership.

Modi and Putin, during a meeting on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit here, discussed a range of bilateral and multilateral issues of mutual concern. “The two leaders

discussed cooperation in civil nuclear energy, partnership in the gas and petrochemicals sector. They also discussed furthering cooperation in the space sector. Matters relating to trade and investment also came up,” External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Vikas Swarup said.

He said President Putin welcomed India signing the Memorandum of Obligations of SCO that has kick-started the process of India’s accession as into the powerful grouping as a “full member”. India will

Kejriwal slams PM Modi on foreign policy front

Arvind Kejriwal NEW DELHI, JUN 24 (PTI): As the NSG meeting ended with no decision on India’s membership bid, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying he has “failed completely” on foreign policy front.

Kejriwal said that the Prime Minister owes an explanation about what he did during his “jaunts” abroad.

Sena backs Swamy, takes dig at BJP leadership MUMBAI, JUN 24 (PTI): Shiv Sena Friday said it appreciates the views of Subramanian Swamy and took a dig at BJP saying the party “cannot disown” his comments on the Chief Economic Advisor after having “used” him against the Gandhi family in the National Herald case.

S e n a ’s s u p p o r t f o r Swamy comes amidst the exchange of words between him and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley over the former’s demand for sacking of Chief Economic Advisor Arvind Subramanian.

“We have a feeling of attachment towards Swamy because he is famous for his stand on Hindutva and corruption. Sonia and Rahul Gandhi must be having nightmare of him. 2G spectrum and National Herald scams came to light because of his initiative, and, at that time the BJP used Swamy completely,” the Sena said in an editorial in its mouthpiece ‘Saamana’. “ N ow i f S wa my i s speaking some truth in his own way, the BJP cannot disown his comments saying they are his personal opinions,” it said.

Taking a dig at Jaitley, Sena said that while he might be “clever and competent”, a Finance minister cannot keep everybody happy at the same time. “The cracks that have developed due to corruption, inflation and black money cannot be easily plugged.

We do not know what did Swamy get by attacking two people related to the economy (Raghuram Rajan and Arvind Subramanian). But, he has good knowledge in this field,” it said.

front. He owes explanation on what did he did on his foreign jaunts?” Kejriwal said on Twitter.

On some media reports claiming that Switzerland too has opposed India’s bid to be a NSG member, the AAP leader suggested the development is indicative of Modi’s visit to that country earlier this month not bearing fruit. Switzerland President Johann SchneiderAmmann had on June 6 announced his country’s backing to India’s membership to the group after holding talks with Modi during the visit.

“Why? Didn’t the PM visit Switzerland just a few days ago?” Kejriwal asked.

The plenary meeting of the 48-member Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) ended in Seoul today with no decision on India’s membership bid as divisions persisted over admitting non-NPT members with China leading the opposition to it.

have to sign around 30 other documents in the course of the year to complete the process for membership. Pakistan is also being inducted into the SCO as a full member. Putin said Russia was looking forward to India’s chairmanship of BRICS, adding it has grown in influence.

“President Putin said India is a special and privileged partner.

There is long standing friendship between Russia and India.

He welcomed India signing the Memorandum of Obligations of SCO and looked forward to India’s Chairmanship of BRICS, which has grown in influence,” said Swarup.

He said the Prime Minister thanked Russia for its support to India in SCO and said India as BRICS chair would keep up the momentum generated by Russia. India has assumed chairmanship of the influential bloc BRICS comprising five countries having 42 per cent of the world population and combined GDP of over USD 16 trillion. India will host the BRICS (Brazil-RussiaChina-South Africa) summit later this year. Russia had the chairmanship of BRICS and it was passed onto India. The 7th BRICS summit was held in the Russian city of Ufa on July 8-9 last year. “Both leaders recalled old cultural connections and agreed to find ways of further invigorating cultural ties,” said Swarup.

KOLKATA, JUN 24 (IANS): West Bengal Finance Minister Amit Mitra on Friday proposed no new taxes while increasing Plan Expenditure to Rs 57,905 crore after its actual Plan Expenditure surpassed the estimated figure last year as he presented the budget for 2016-17.

“I propose to increase the Plan Expenditure to Rs 57,905 crore for 2016-17. Our aim is to work for financial and social development for the people of Bengal, particular for those who remain financially and socially backward,” Mitra said during his budget speech in the Assembly.

In the last fiscal (2015-16), the state’s actual Plan Expenditure surpassed the estimated allocation by seven per cent.

While the budget estimate was Rs 49,507 crore, the actual expenditure was Rs.53,010 crore -- almost Rs.4,000 crore more.

On Friday, Mitra estimated the budget deficit at Rs 8 crore in the current fiscal. He did not propose any fresh taxes.

The minister said fiscal deficit was brought down to 2.68 per cent in 2015-16 from 4.24 per cent in 2010-11, while revenue deficit was reduced to 1.03 per cent in 2015-16 from 3.75 per cent in 2010-11.

Mitra said the state borrowed Rs.1,13,104 crore in the last five years. But out of that, Rs.94, 533 crore was drained out only for debt servicing of the debt taken by the previous government.

“We borrowed about Rs

18,571 crore for development in the last five years, that is, a yearly loan of only Rs 3,718 crore,” he said.

The minister proposed a slew of finance and tax reforms.

He proposed to raise the exemption limit for professional tax from Rs 8,500 to Rs 10,000 per month to give relief to employees and wage earners.

The minister said following measures taken by the Trinamool Congress government to reduce pending litigation under VAT, the number of assessments have drastically come down from 2 lakhs for any assessment year is now less than 20,000. “The Fast Track Courts have disposed more than 8,000 cases,” he said.

He also proposed abolition of the Settlement Commisison for settling outstanding VAT/Sales Tax liabilities in view of the large disposal of old pending cases through Fast Track Courts. “I propose to abolish the Commission with effect from July 1,” he said.

In order to further bring down the litigations, the state would not go for litigation where the disputed amount in appeal order was less than Rs 1 lakh.

“This will provide relief to thousands of tax payers and also bring down administrative costs of collection of revenue,” he said. The minister also proposed to do away with manual furnishing of TDS certificate that was so long mandatory for getting such benefit under VAT law.

Centre’s no to deputation of Kejriwal’s handpicked officer NEW DELHI, JUN 24 (PTI): The Centre has shot down the deputation request of forest service officer Sanjiv Chaturvedi, whom Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal wanted to be posted as OSD in his office, saying service rules bar such hiring.

It said that Chaturvedi needs to first complete mandatory cooling-off period of three years before joining the Delhi government.

Chaturvedi, a 2002 batch Indian Forest Service officer of Uttarakhand cadre, is working as Deputy Secretary in All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS). He had last year sought inter-cadre deputation to Delhi government.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had on February 16, last year written to Union Environment, Forest and Climate Change Minister

Prakash Javadekar seeking services of Chaturvedi as Officer on Special Duty (OSD) in his office.

The Appointments Committee of Cabinet (ACC) has declined the proposal for intercadre deputation of Chaturvedi from Uttarakhand cadre to the Government of National Capital territory of Delhi, an order issued recently by Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) said.

The decision comes after an order by Central Administrative Tribunal on June 2 directing the ACC to decide within three weeks on the deputation of the officer.

After his induction into the service, Chaturvedi was allocated Har yana cadre.

However, he sought change

in the cadre citing “extreme personal hardship”. The ACC had approved the inter-cadre transfer of Chaturvedi from Haryana to Uttarakhand in August 2015.

However, in February this year, Uttarakhand government rejected a representation of Chaturvedi seeking a No-Objection Certificate for inter-cadre deputation stating “if government of India grants waiver of cooling off condition, Uttarakhand has no-objection for inter-cadre deputation”.

As per rules, an officer can get central deputation or inter-cadre deputation only after the concurrence from both the state government concerned (the cadre state of the officer) and the Centre.

NEW DELHI, JUN 24 (PTI): A day after Delhi Assembly summoned LG Najeeb Jung for questioning in alleged scam cases, the Centre Friday gave a veiled warning to the AAP government of taking action if it does not work within the framework of the Constitution.

“No one should forget that Delhi is the capital of the country. Everyone has to work within the ambit of the Constitution. If anyone exceeds the limit, he should be dealt with as per the provisions of the Constitution,” Union Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju told reporters here.

Rijiju was responding to a question on Delhi Assembly Deputy Speaker Rakhi Birla summoning the LG to the House for “questioning” in connection with four cases pertaining to alleged scams during Sheila Dikshit rule.

The Minister alleged Arvind Kejriwal government was doing politics in the case by involving the LG. Asked about AAP’s demand that there should be a referendum on granting full statehood to Delhi, Rijiju said the city government was swayed by the BREXIT referendum.

Birla had said Jung and Delhi Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) chief M K Meena will be summoned by the Petitions Committee of the Assembly, which looks into complaints received from common public.

NEW DELHI, JUN 24 (PTI): The Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) Friday raised doubts over credibility of Delhi Police’s probe into the death of a 13year-old girl whose parents alleged she was raped and murderd while the police suspected it to be a case of suicide.

The mother of the deceased girl has alleged that instead of heeding to her pleas, police facilitated the cremation of the body and prevented the mother from witnessing the cremation.

Police also refused to record the statements of the mother and other family members of the victim despite their repeated requests.

Police dismissed the allegations and said that the girl’s father had himself sought financial support for the cremation and he had given his consent for the same not only to the police but also to the priest at the cremation ground.

“The girl’s mother was counselled by a group of doctors and she was taken along to the cremation ground,” DCP (southwest) Surender Kumar said.

Yesterday, the girl was found dead in her home in Inderpuri and a post-mortem of the deceased was conducted today. According to the mother of the deceased, it was conveyed to the parents by the police that the post mortem did not show the

ocurrence of rape, the DCW said in its statement.

“The mother demanded that police repeat the postmortem but the police immediately put the body in a jeep along with the father of the victim and drove to Green Park shamshan ghat.

The mother has alleged that the police did not allow her to be present in the jeep and that they took away the phone of the father of the deceased so she was unable to contact him.

“The mother later realized that the police jeep is going towards shamshan ghat and reached the spot and begged the police not to burn the girl. It is alleged that instead of heeding to the pleas of the aggrieved mother, the police facilitated the cremation of the dead body and prevented the mother from witnessing the cremation,” said the Commission.

DCW chief Swati Maliwal, along with the DCW Rape Crisis Cell in-Charge, Neelam Narang, immediately reached the ghat and were appalled to see the condition of the mother.

“It was shocking to note that not only was the ACP present on the spot but also that there was an SHO and several police officers. This generally is not the case as the duty of the police is limited to handing-over the body of the deceased to the family members after the post-mortem,” the Commission said.

NOTICE Consequent upon opening of Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS) Wellness Centre at Kohima by MoH&FW, Govt. of India under the administrative control of Addl. Director, CGHS, Guwahati, the CGHS Wellness Centre at Kohima will provide comprehensive medical care facilities to the Central Government employees and pensioners and certain other categories of persons covered under the Scheme.

Blow to a nuclear dream

C

hina dealt a big blow to India’s years of efforts to become a member of the Nuclear Suppliers Group(NSG) by blocking its entry at the meeting in Seoul on Thursday.

Membership to NSG is through consensus and when several nations such as China including Austria, Switzerland, Norway, Ireland, and New Zealand, expressed reservations about the lack of conditions in the proposed exemption; it was a lost cause for India. For Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the failure was certainly a huge setback personally as he had been lobbying for India’s membership across nations. He had met Chinese president Xi Jinping as a last ditch effort but the giant neighbour did not relent. China was not the sole opponent to India`s member ship to the NSG, but Brazil, Austria, Ireland, Turkey and New Zealand too have opposed India`s entry, citing it`s not being a signatory of the NPT for nuclear weapons and weapons technology. Forty three countries who are signatories of the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT), came into force in March 1970, with the objective of seeking to inhibit the spread of nuclear weapons. India is not a signatory to the NPT which it calls discriminatory.

There are presently 190 member-states who are signatories. India’s position with regard to membership to the NSG but not being a signatory of the NPT is a dichotomy of interests of a nation.

For years, India has been trying to gain entry into the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), a 48 member grouping that was formed in the aftermath of India’s 1974 Pokhran nuclear test. The formation of NSG was aimed at ensuring non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and nuclear technology and so the formation of the group was to deny India access to sophisticated technology. The 48 members of the NSG include the five nuclear weapon states, US, UK, France, China and Russia. Why it would be beneficial to be a member of NSG is that India would gain access to technology for a range of uses from medicine to building nuclear power plants which is essentially a traders’ cartel. India has its own indigenously developed technology but to get its hands on state of the art technology that countries within the NSG possess, it has to become part of the group. With India committed to reducing dependence on fossil fuels and ensuring that 40% of its energy is sourced from renewable and clean sources, there is a pressing need to scale up nuclear power production. The main reason for India failing to get NSG membership was not being a signatory of the NPT. If India could sign the NPT then it would be able to gain membership of NSG which would in turn, provide access to all nuclear technology but that would also meant India would have to give up its entire nuclear arsenal. India wants to have access to latest technology, so that it can commercialize the production of nuclear power equipment. This would also enable India to start building updated versions of its own fast breeder reactor and sell it to countries such as Sri Lanka or Bangladesh.

The high optics of Modi lobbying for NSG membership will be to take a back seat as a review of the strategies is the order of the day.

DailyDevotion Reconciling Yourself to the Fact of Sin This is your hour, and the power of darkness.

—Luke 22:53 Not being reconciled to the fact of sin— not recognizing it and refusing to deal with it— produces all the disasters in life. You may talk about the lofty virtues of human nature, but there is something in human nature that will mockingly laugh in the face of every principle you have. If you refuse to agree with the fact that there is wickedness and selfishness, something downright hateful and wrong, in human beings, when it attacks your life, instead of reconciling yourself to it, you will compromise with it and say that it is of no use to battle against it. Have you taken this “hour, and the power of darkness” into account, or do you have a view of yourself which includes no recognition of sin whatsoever? In your human relationships and friendships, have you reconciled yourself to the fact of sin? If not, just around the next corner you will find yourself trapped and you will compromise with it. But if you will reconcile yourself to the fact of sin, you will realize the danger immediately and say, “Yes, I see what this sin would mean.”

The recognition of sin does not destroy the basis of friendship— it simply establishes a mutual respect for the fact that the basis of sinful life is disastrous. Always beware of any assessment of life which does not recognize the fact that there is sin.

Jesus Christ never trusted human nature, yet He was never cynical nor suspicious, because He had absolute trust in what He could do for human nature. The pure man or woman is the one who is shielded from harm, not the innocent person. The so-called innocent man or woman is never safe. Men and women have no business trying to be innocent; God demands that they be pure and virtuous.

Innocence is the characteristic of a child. Any person is deserving of blame if he is unwilling to reconcile himself to the fact of sin.

Post-mortem Envisioning a value-added education I will not be ashamed to speak A I

would like to redirect our attention to what we know and think about our educational system with a very specific qualifier. Education in the sense conveyed here is not only about fundamental learning and vocational skills which should go hand in hand, a higher technical spreading of knowledge tied with a robust primary and secondary, collegiate and university education. Indeed, education often escapes the walls of its institution and the binds of its books. What I mean here is reflective thinking in education and more importantly, the response to such thinking. Why does the perceived gap between technical insight and the analytical mode in learning seem to be increasing? I believe that this mode of inquiry has become necessary as a result of the upheavals we are encountering today in universities around the country. Whether it may be the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) incident, the contentious cases of students’ protests and the tragic suicide cases in central universities across Hyderabad or the consequential spirit of protest that has emerged in our nation today, the overall feeling one could surmise is most definitely an apparent sense of dissension from the student community. However, notwithstanding the political debates, what I wish to deduce from these incidents strongly dwells on one question alone: What is the future of our Educational System?

Sir Ken Robinson, an educator and creativity expert, in one of his TED talks remarks about the importance of creativity to be part of a school curriculum, and his contention was that creativity is as important in education as literacy . So the consensus now is that technical acumen be combined with vocational skill building and a more holistic approach to all levels of education. For the most part, I agree with Sir Ken’s argument,

but I should like to re-evaluate the two aspects of education – literacy and creativity, and consider them within the Indian educational context.

The overall aim of literacy, if we can narrow it down, is confined to the teaching of reading, writing and mathematical skills while creativity enables the literacy process to be more effective. I believe Maria Montessori has already attested to this educational methodology, or rather, pedagogy.

Yet, the tipping of one aspect over the other could result in consequences rather alarming, for instance, the focus on study and syllabus alone could bore the learner, resulting in a lack of interest or unnecessarily alienate students from the learning process. On the other hand, the focus on creativity alone could result in a lack of foundational knowledge and an unsystematic frame of thought in learning. Today, as methods of teaching and learning are constantly evolving much like the technological changes around us, there is a possibility for learners to lose their way in the excess of free information.

Learners today would rather ‘Google search’ answers than take that extra hour to prepare on lessons by referring books. Understandably, given this scenario, therefore publishing houses are turning to digitalizing their book publications for easier access, however there remains the fact that such resources are cast aside and ready-made answers, summaries or theories are sought after, with blatant plagiarism (the culture of copy-paste) plaguing our educational system. The other problem is one of access, ironically affixed to ‘free information’ (the catch phrase!). It appears that learners today have creatively mutated the art of the Internet. There can be no shortcut to learning and even if one has managed to survive so far through such methods, there will come a point in life when one’s knowledge in learning

will be tested and it would not do to be found wanting.

How then should we address the future of our education? From Aristotle to Rousseau, from Thoreau to Phule, every one of us are invested in education. Parents would like their children to get the best education, teachers would like their students to gather value-added education. Education is not just confined to books or finding knowledge in books nor is creativity in learning confined to an unleashing of artistry alone. It requires a bit of both and depending on the circumstances the balance tips over to one side or the other. For instance, a good grasp on the creative use of language becomes a necessary skill in order to write an answer differently. This is where skill development courses also add value to education.

Yet again, an over-emphasis on skill development could result in a weak foundational grasp on the stream of study; say English Literature, Political Science or Economics, etc. So, now it must clearer that debating about education as well as standardizing pedagogy is rather tricky – and in our country, the changing governments at the Centre has markedly kept us educators on our toes with every new policy on education (in a bid for standardization). Governments will change, policies will change, pedagogy will be infinitely redefined, and education will creatively re-emerge in new avatars, however, I would argue that one outcome should remain constant in the din. That is, education, no matter how high, should make a better human being of us all with upright moral and ethical values that can be experienced and shared. This is how I envision a value-added education.

alive. We fail to obey God’s laws, but even if we fulfil all the laws, the law could not save man. Romans 8:3-4 says; “For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh. God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh. And for sin, condemned sin in the flesh. That the righteousness of the law might fulfilled in us who walk not after flesh, but after the spirit.”

Romans 8:6-8 Paul divided the people in two categories. “The mind of sinful men is death, but the mind controlled by the spirit is life and peace.

The sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.” There cannot be any repentance after death and there cannot be confession after death also. So while we are still alive, we admit our guilt and confess our sins with our mouth and ask for forgiveness. And come out to the wonderful light and become one of the strong and powerful agents of converting another sinner to the way of righteousness and become the children of God. James 5:20 says: “Remember this: whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover a multitude of sin” When we repent and turn to God, God’s seed remain in us and if God’s seeds remain in us we will never commit sin. This is what the Bible said.

Mark 8:38 says: “If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generations the Son of men will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.” So we should not be ashamed to speak about our Lord Jesus Christ and His words to the people of these generations. We can tell people in the village, in streets, towns or in the cities, in office, in meetings and even while we are in the field.

Remembering two English Bible translators

I

love the Bible! Without it, the world would have been in complete disarray and in a decomposed state.I concur with Abraham Lincoln when he said, “I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from the Saviour of the world is communicated to us through this book.” The Bible has survived through severe testing and challenges yet has stood the fiery trial of times. French philosopher and acclaimed atheist, Voltaire called for its extinction yet he himself was eaten by worms. The Bible rose to prominence yet again.

Indeed, the truth cannot be buried; it always endures from its scaffold. The history of English Bible is one that is so rich and a slight glimpse into the making of the Bible will wake and stir our lazy minds to treasure it more affectionately.

Little is known about the two Bible translators who traded their lives for one single task: to translate the Bible into English language. I’m talking about John Wycliffe and William Tyndale. Wycliffe translated the Latin Bible into English in the year 1382. He died of paralysis stroke two years after completion of his translation project. The Wycliffe Bible opened the eyes of ignorant and simple minds.

The common people were being swayed by the traditions, superstitions and corruptions of the Church in this period of Church history (Late Middle Ages). Bible illiteracy was one sole reason behind this malaise. The practice of selling of indulgences (purchasing of ticket to heaven), idolatrous worship of saints, praying for the dead, petitioning in heaven and so on were the outcome of ignoring the Biblical truth of God’s book.

Thanks to Jerome who translated the Hebrew and Greek Bible into Latin in 405 AD but following the succeeding centuries, the Latin language became out-dated.

Only the higher authorities in the clergy ranks could understand the archaic language. The people attended the Church meetings but were foreign to what was happening in the service. In such a milieu, God raised this one man, Wycliffe, who studied meticulously and translated the Latin Bible into English. The Church was not supportive of this translation work as they thought it is tampering and corrupting the Holy Scriptures. Nonetheless, the translation works was finished.

It was through this English Bible that propelled a wave of reawakening in the lives of many people to understand

and realize the ignorance of their blind beliefs and practices. It gave a huge setback to the Church authorities from making money and brought misunderstanding and confusion among the people. This was just the beginning of a huge reformation movement that was about to climaxed in the 16th century. But for now, the Churches tried to quench the movement by calling forth the Council of Constance in 1415 and pronounced John Wycliffe as heretic and a forerunner of anti-Christ. His works were burned. They even went to the extent of digging out the grave of Wycliffe and exhumed his corpse and burned into ashes casting that into the river Swift.

The motivation behind all these cold-hearted drudgery was unmistakably the enemies’ work.

The truth now has triumphed once again after being suppressed for some time.

Although the work was commendable; since the translation work of Wycliffe had some minor discrepancies and inconsistencies. Adding to that, it was translated from Latin language. Therefore, in the 15th century, God raised a man named William Tyndale.

From his early age, he was addicted to the reading of Scriptures. He translated the Bible from the original Bible

languages, Hebrew and Greek into English. He was a genius as he mastered seven languages distinctively. He started the translation process in England but due to threats from the royal indictment, he had to flee from his own home to Germany.

Tyndale came into contact with Martin Luther and he completed the translation work in the year 1525. The prints of these copies were shipped into London and it spread like wild fire. People bought it and spend the whole night listening and reading it. They even paid to hear portions of the letters of James and Paul being read in English. Nevertheless, as the news reached the higher authorities, the copies were all seized from every house and localities. They burned it publicly. Only two copies survived out of all the thousand copies printed.

It was such distressing news for Tyndale but he persevered even to this end.

When his work was burnt in London, Tyndale wrote: “In burning the New Testament they did no other thing than I looked for; no more shall they do if they burn me also, if it be God’s will it shall be so. Nevertheless, in translating the New Testament I did my duty.” He did not stop the work. An Englishman, Henry

The haunting experience of house hunting in the state capital

V

s we see, the life of a man dies in the mother’s womb. Some were born alive, but they die even before naming, some die before they become boyhood or girlhood.

And some die while they are at the prime of their youth. Some die after marriage engagement. And some get married but before living together they die; and some die after living with their family for a few years, leaving 3 or 4 children and their partner. All these are mysterious that a common man cannot understand except God who knows everything.

For somebody, they live many years and do many good things for the family, for the community as well as for the church, and for the glory of God. While somebody live for a short time but they also do many good things for the family as well as humanity. And the people remember them for their good deed. On their death, the loved one expressed in grief saying “Huoh! If you live longer, you would have done many more good things but you have died so soon and your untimely death is a great loss to us.”

Our good work is our testimony.

We never know how long we will live in this world. Life is in the hand of God. Therefore, when our hands and legs are good and fit for walking, strong enough to work and our mind and our brain normal and mentally sound, healthy and able to plan and work while we are alive, we should try our best to do anything good for the family and for the community, and devote our time for the glory of God who is all the time helping us in many ways.

When we are young at times, we commit sins against man and God. When we are in active service, our mind and our hands are not clean and we need to clean it up. We must admit our guilt and confess our sins before man and God while we are

ery few townships in Nagaland can rival Kohima town in terms of its strategic location, natural scenic beauty, and salubrious climatic condition. If you are someone who is on a lookout for a temporary or permanent domicile, Kohima is definitely the ultimate destination where country roads from all over Nagaland will lead you to.

By virtue of being the state capital, which houses all the administrative establishments, the growing educational institutions, the booming business enterprise, medical facilities, and a host of other attractions, Kohima continues to draw hundreds and thousands of new citizens each year from all walks of life.

As you will notice, like any other growing cosmopolitan city, the demographic landscape of this quiet township is being changed rapidly within the past couple of decades. People from within and without the state of Nagaland continue to migrate to Kohima for a number of reasons, and they all need a house which they wish to call “home.” This is a trend that is bound to grow.

The question is whether or not Kohima and its citizens will be magnanimous enough to spread their wings of benevolence and play a good host by

welcoming their new inhabitants and by being hospitable to them.

Despite its natural bounty, Kohima suffers from a number of manmade sicknesses - unplanned development resulting in mammoth traffic jam due to non-existence of proper road facility, poor water contribution system, erratic power supply, to name a few. Among the myriad ailments Kohima is marred with, finding a descent house for rent is a very disheartening and humiliating escapade one has to undergo.

Forget about the price tag of monthly rental fees, if one is lucky enough to stumble upon a potential house, the normal response of the owner is that someone else has already booked the place, implying that he is not interested in renting out his house to you.

Unless one is a close relative or a known friend of some landlords, no one gets his jackpot in a single shot. The intention is understandably to double-check the identity and ascertain the background of the vagabonds, but most house hunters get double-crossed in the process. House hunting in the state capital takes a heavy toll on the economic, mental, and physical tenacity of a person. The experience is not only daunting but also haunting.

While we complain to others about our anguish of not having given a proper place for accommodation by residents in cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru, many of us still struggle to find a place to hide our heads in our own land. Let alone the people from other parts of the country, the Nagas from Nagaland struggle to find a descent place to rent and live in places like Kohima and Dimapur. We love to broadcast to the world by inviting them to come and savor our hospitability, but we look at each other with suspicion and refuse to share our space with our own brothers and sisters in need.

The number of people seeking accommodation in the capital will grow more and more each year and the struggle to find a roof above our head will grow in equal proportion. This is one issue which should not escape the attention of policy makers in the government. No right-thinking leader can afford to wash his hands off the responsibility of providing his fellow citizens one of the most basic needs of life. The government and its agencies should join their heads together and find ways to address this pressing concern.

After all the right to shelter is a legitimate human right.

Phillip befriended him but in reality was a disguised spy.

Tyndale was finally arrested and thrown in a dungeon. The officials ordered him to recant but he refused. Ultimately, Tyndale was strangled and burned at stake. His last words rang, “Lord, open the King of England’s eyes.” Two years after his death, the prophetic prayer of Tyndale was fulfilled.

King Henry VIII ordered that the Great Bible of Tyndale’s work be disseminated to all the Churches in England for the purpose of preaching, teaching and reading. He set the stage for the reformation in the persons of Martin Luther, John Calvin, Zwingli and others. Praise God! The 1611 King James Version which was a work of 54 scholars (some say 47 scholars) was a complete dependence on the translation work of William Tyndale. It was through these two towering personalities that the English Bible was completed. Today, we are enjoying the fruit of their labours. May their souls be remembered and praise given to God for his unchanging, flawless, infallible and inspired book transmitted to the present generation intact and unbroken.

In the bygone days, scores of precious souls have been burnt at stake and martyred

for teaching and preaching the Bible. Even today, there are places in the world where Bibles are restricted and Christian missionaries are smuggling the Bible into these countries and regions. Conversely, God has been so good to us! We have dozens of Bibles in our possessions and our book shelves are flooded with it. But that don’t mean a thing if we don’t care enough to open the pages of the inspired text. We take pride in that the Bible is the best-selling book in the world but the recent survey shows that the Bible is the least read book even among the Christian communities. Not surprised at all!! The weak state of our Churches is apparent as God’s book is less underscored by many Christians. May I then propose that if Christians in our land are saturated andsteeped in the Bible, it will certainly give birth to reformation! Therefore, the sound of reviving the Scriptures in our Churches should be the cry of every awakened soul. One key to overcome materialism over spiritual values will be through the recovery of God’s word in our Churches. Jesus said in Matthew 24:35, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my word will never pass away.”

Reader’s Post Sir,

Kudos to Acaut Nagaland

While appreciating the ACAUT Nagaland in it’s efforts of cleaning corrupt system that is ruining our society for long. My strong support and congratulation goes to the team for taking tough stand on anti-graft campaign against established power that are responsible for crippling our society. This palpably brought new dawn and hope to our generation. The present exposures and reactions by responsible organisation have both good and bad taste for our concerned new naga generation who, by and large dream to live in a fair and just society.

I only wish that all our leaders put efforts in delivering corrupt free society.

Of late, the ACAUT exposures of anomalies detected that published in Nagaland Post dated 14th June under the caption, “Anomalies in PWD(R&B) Dimapur division”, my intuition quickly dashed into my conscience to write this article on the related matter. Taking into account of various considerations and examination of the present transformative trends, I as a concerned citizen hailing from satoi under satakha constituency is grieved and constrained to place this public grievances that various projects and schemes under Central Sponsored Scheme (CSS) and state projects during the period of Shri. Kaito Aye as PWD minister (R&B, mechanical and Housing and National Highway) from 2008 to 2013, no tangible and actual developmental works has been done though in paper records, the numerous Central Sponsored Scheme (CSS) like NLCPR, PMGSY, CRF and other state programmes and schemes were shown to have completed and drawn the money but the actual live conditions of the roads are still in a primitive condition as no actual works had taken place and public are suffering for many decades under this area. To obtain detail information I had collected some information through RTI though it was unsatisfactory information furnished to me by Executive Engineer PWD Zunheboto on the behest of Chief Engineer Kohima.

My question is, when hundreds of crores have been drawn from roads under one PWD subdivision, I wonder to imagine the amount involved throughout the state as the condition of roads remain same story.

At this point, I would like to draw attention of ACAUT to also look into deeper anomalies created by the past ministers similar to the present exposures. Corruption should be eradicated from our society hence all the corrupt leaders should be brought to booked and no one should be spared from this naked practices of corruption. My second measures of concern which I wish ACAUT to come out openly is the silence on the fuel adulteration which is going on openly in the commercial hub Dimapur. As this is affecting everyone and no administration, police or government for that matter and underground organisation has not taken any drastic steps to stop this illegal activities in the market which is run by non-locals with the kerosene oil which are meant for public distribution system are been black marketed.

The remarks were made after CBI lawyer Purnima Kantharia said the agency would give Khanna a copy of the confessional statement, but at a later stage.

“We will give them the statement but not now as investigation is still on. This statement of Rai was recorded recently after the charge sheet was filed as he has recently been allowed to turn approver and granted pardon,” she said.

Khanna, arrested in connection with the sensational murder of his former wife Indrani Mukerjea’s daughter Sheena, has sought a copy of the confessional statement of Indrani’s former driver Shyamvar Rai, who was recently granted pardon and made an approver in the case.

Justice Sadhana Jadhav observed that an accused has an inherent right to have a copy of the statements of co-accused or witnesses in a case since it will be used as evidence during trial.

The BJP has taken a serious view of its Rajya Sabha member Subramanian Swamy’s implicit attack on Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and is likely to strongly convey to him to be restrained in his comments pertaining to party leaders and government officials, party sources said.

A party office bearer said the leadership has taken dim view of Swamy’s remarks

He added that an India-specific IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) agreement allowed India to also trade with NSG countries.

“NSG countries can sell reactors to India and India can do the same.

So there was no need of this desperation on the NSG issue,” Sharma said.

The Congress also expressed shock at the statement given by Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj where she had said that India would have no objection to the entry of Pakistan into the NSG based on merit.

“Such a statement is absolutely shocking. It is a huge diplomatic letdown of the country after raising expectations to such a great height,” senior party spokesperson Prithviraj Chavan said talking to reporters here.

“The Prime Minister must explain as to what went wrong and what is the Prime Minister’s stand on Pakistan, particularly about Pakistan’s standards of behaviour on Non Proliferation, about Dr. A.Q. Khan’s work, giving nuclear technology in an unauthorized manner and in view of that how can India welcome Pakistan’s membership of the NPT, whatever the merit, you all know that there are some friendly countries who are supporting Pakistan’s case,” Chavan added.

NEW DELHI, JUN 24 (IANS): As India’s bid for membership of the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) came a cropper, the Congress on Friday said the Narendra Modiled government had shown “unnecessary desperation” to become a member of the bloc and embarrassed the country in the process. “Diplomacy is always done by wisdom and silence. We have never seen diplomacy being conducted in this manner, making it very clear whom you are lobbying with and whom you are petitioning with,” senior Congress leader and Deputy Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Anand Sharma told reporters at the party headquarters here. “It is an embarrassment for India to do what was not required. This kind of intense lobbying by Prime Minister Modi and his government, we can understand, should have been done for UN Security Council membership,” Sharma said, insisting there was no need to show desperation that led India to be equated with Pakistan in the NSG case.

“Why did the Prime Minister and this government make so much of noise about it, and the kind of hectic campaigning and lobbying for it? In 2008, NSG had given India specific waiver which allowed India’s integration with the nuclear mainstream after decades of isolation,” he added.

That agreement, Sharma said, paved the way for India to

Dimapur, Jun 24 (NPN): A Naga youth was found dead on June 23 at Sunderbani, 80 kms from Jammu city in Jammu and Kashmir. The youth, suspected to be murdered, was identified as one Jisietho Nyuwi, aged 27 from Meluri village, Phek district was a Hindi graduate and had been working part-time in 4G installation in Jammu area. According to a press release issued by president and general secretary of Pochury Hoho, Penthü Pochury and Er. Vichutho Nyusou, the mortal remains has reportedly been kept in Jammu Medical College; however, on account of distance and lack of procedural formalities, the body is yet to be retrieved. In this connection, the Hoho has informed that an FIR has been lodged. It has also called for quick response from the government.

Swamy has been active on Twitter over the last twothree days, attacking officials of Finance Ministry and taking swipe at Jaitley.

KOCHI, JUN 24 (PTI): In a relief to former Chief Minister Oommen Chandy and former Power Minister Aryadan Mohammed, the Kerala High Court Friday quashed proceedings initiated by the Vigilance Court in Thrissur against them in connection with bribery charge in the solar scam.

Justice B Kemal Pasha, allowing a petition by Chandy and Mohammed, said the vigilance court had acted in a haste and the complaint does not disclose anything even for a quick verification.

On January 28, Inquiry Commissioner and Special Judge Thrissur S S Vassan had directed Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau Director to register an FIR on a private complaint by a social worker on bribery charges against Chandy and Mohammed levelled by solar scam prime accused Saritha S Nair before a judicial commission probing the matter.

The high court in an interim order on the very next day suspended the Vigilance court order, observing that it had acted mechanically without knowing the nature and extent of its powers. Saritha, while deposing before the Justice G Sivarajan Commission, had alleged that she had paid bribes to the tune of Rs 1.90 crore to a close aide of Chandy and Rs 40 lakh to Mohammed.

pertaining to Jaitley and government officials and regards these as “indiscipline.”

“The party is not happy with the remarks of Swamy.

Despite advice to the contrary, he is targeting party leaders and government functionaries,” said the office bearer, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

“The remarks amount to indiscipline and the party would not tolerate it further,” he added.

Another party leader said that party chief Amit Shah could talk to Swamy over the next few days.

He said that Swamy may have come to the Rajya Sabha on the backing of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh but the organisation does not favour personalised attacks.

Swamy on Friday made an implicit attack on Jaitley and criticized those “giving me unasked for advice of discipline.” “People giving me unasked for advice of discipline and restraint don’t realise that if I disregard discipline, there would be a bloodbath,” Swamy tweeted.

Though the MP did not name Jaitley, his tweet followed Jaitley’s public admonition of Swamy after the latter called for the sacking of Chief Economic Adviser Arvind Subramanian.

However, an institution can allow only up to 20 per cent of the total seats being offered in a particular programme in a semester through online mode under Swayam.

“The aim is to widen the access to higher education and bring down its cost by using technological advances,” a senior official said.

As the new guidelines aim to supplement classroom teaching with online learning, educational institutions have been advised to consider factors like non-availability of suitable teaching staff for running a course for choosing online courses.

Swayam will notify to the Registrars of institutions on June 1 and November 1 every year the list of online courses to be offered in the forthcoming semester, the UGC regulations say.

Institutions, however, must designate a course coordinator to guide the students during the programme, practical sessions and examinations.

Final marks or grade shall be communicated to the students as well as the parent institution of the student within four weeks from the date of completion of the final examination, the guidelines said.

NEW DELHI, JUN 24 (PTI/IANS): Taking his attack to those in the Finance Ministry to a new level, BJP MP Subramanian Swamy today issued veiled threat to those asking him to follow restraint saying if he “disregarded discipline there will be a bloodbath.”

“People giving me unasked for advice of discipline and restraint don’t realise that if I disregard discipline there would be a bloodbath,” he tweeted in an obvious attack on Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.

Though he did not name Jaitley, he was obviously referring to the Minister urging him for restraint and discipline in the wake of his attacks on Chief Economic Adviser Arvind Subramanian on Wednesday and his use of the word discipline in defending Economic Affairs Secretary Shaktikanta Das yesterday.

In another apparent swipe at Jaitley, whose photographs of meeting with the Bank of China Chairman Tian Guoli in Beijing in a longue suit appeared in newspapers today, Swamy asked BJP to advise ministers to wear traditional and modernised Indian cloths when abroad.

NEW DELHI, JUN 24 (PTI): UGC has come out with guidelines that provide a framework for transfer of marks scored in approved online courses to regular classroom courses.

The University Grants Commission (credit framework for online learning courses through Swayam) Regulation, 2016, which was passed at a recent meeting of the Commission and received the approval of the HRD Ministry, will be notified soon, official sources said.

The guidelines have been framed keeping in mind the HRD Ministry’s massive open online courses (MOOC) platform Swayam (Study Web of Active Learning by Young and Aspiring Minds).

2,000 such courses are expected to be launched for three crore learners under the government’s ambitious Swayam project.

Through this project, students from the backward rural areas can access to teaching facilities of best institutes which will offer online courses, thereby raising the overall standard of higher education in the country. According to the new UGC norms, institutions can, keeping in view their academic requirements, decide upon the courses which they shall permit for

“Climate change is not just an environmental challenge; it is a national security issue. Changes in climate could potentially damage critical infrastructure, create shortages of food and water, and lead to mass migrations and disease outbreaks.

“Receding ice sheets in the Arctic and the opening of new sea passages raise concerns about maritime security and freedom of navigation,” he said. According to Verma, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 175 GW target for renewable energy deployments is among the most ambitious in the world and the US has done a great deal to support this effort.

Through the US-India Partnership to Advance Clean Energy, or PACE, nearly USD 2.5 billion have been mobilised for clean energy projects in India and another USD 1.4 billion in climate finance for solar projects was announced during the Prime Minister’s visit to the US.

H y d e r a ba d, J u n 2 4 (PTI): India continues to get the “lion’s share” of the H-1B visas from the US government despite the fee hike, US Ambassador to India Richard Verma said today.

“India continues to receive the lion’s share of H-1B and L1 and even after the fee increase, they continue to get 70 per cent of those H-1B visas,” Verma said on the sidelines of ‘The Future is Now: From COP21 to Reality’ conference here. “We understand the concern about the fee hike. I think there is an ongoing conversation. We also know this is an important part of travel and commercial enterprise in the US”. “And again, there is an increase in the number of visas issued, in fact, there is a slight increase,” he added.

The US, under the 9/11 Health and Compensation Act, has imposed a special fee of USD 4,000 on certain categories of H-1B visas and USD 4,500 on L1 visas.

Almost all Indian IT companies would be paying between USD 8,000 and USD 10,000 per H-1B visa as per the hike.

According to Nasscom, this is expected to have an impact of about USD 400 million annually on India’s technology sector. Earlier in his speech, Verma said the ongoing deforestation and poor land management is responsible for

Mumbai, Jun 24 (PTI): Spooked by Brexit impact, the rupee plunged as much as 71 paise to settle at a 4-month low of 67.96 against the dollar on fresh demand for the US currency as the latter rose overseas amid a sharp fall in equities.

The rupee opened sharply lower at 67.91 against yesterday’s closing level of 67.25 at the Interbank Foreign Exchange (forex) market and went down further to 68.22 on initial heavy dollar demand from banks and importers. But intervention of the Reserve Bank (RBI) coupled with rebound in equities meant the domestic unit recovered to 67.78 before ending at a 4-month low at 67.96, a loss of 71 paise, or 1.06 per cent -its biggest single-day fall since August 24, 2015.

The rupee had last ended at around this level -- 68.42 -- was on February 29.

The domestic currency hovered in a range of 67.78 and 68.22 during the day.

The dollar index was trading up 2.80 per cent against a basket of six currencies in the late afternoon trade.

RBI fixed the reference rate for the dollar at 68.01 and euro at 75.10. In crosscurrency trades, the rupee recovered sharply against the pound sterling to finish at 93.13 from 100.20 yesterday and also rebounded against the euro to settle at 74.80 from 76.57.

China, we are now passing that phase where there is massive infrastructure programme which is on India. Part of the infrastructure programme we are building rural roads, national highways,” he said.

“Seven hundred thousand villages in India are going to be connected with regular road by 2019,” he said.

“This year we are building about 10,000 km of national highway. That is the pace at which the changes are being carried on,” he said, adding that plans are afoot to build more airports and sea ports. There is also “private participation in railways infrastructure”.

Indian railways is a large network therefore its modernisation is necessary, he said.

In the power sector, particularly in renewable energy, a very big target has been set besides establishment of smart cities. Manufacturing is a great emphasis area, he said. “Startups are being given utmost priority. There is a big programme of financial inclusion which is going on in India as a part of the social sector reforms,” he said.

Jaitley said, “State support, subsidies as they are called, we have rationalised the whole process. This again is work in progress”.

This has been one of the most important changes which have taken place in India.

Pradhan said the Centre is working to make North East a hub for hydrocarbons for the entire South East Asia by developing crude import infrastructure and promoting trade between the region and SAARC countries, mainly with Bangladesh, Myanmar, Nepal and Bhutan.

“North East India has four refineries with a combined installed capacity of 7 MMTPA, all of them in Assam. Our target is to expand the refining capacity of the region to 16 MMTPA,” he added.

He urged Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, who accompanied him during the press conference, to waive the entry tax for imported crude into the state.

Pradhan claimed that the per capita consumption of liquid petroleum product in Assam is 62 kg as against the national average of 138 kg, while the same in respect to electricity consumption stands at 254 KW as compared to 1,000 KW in entire India.

He said the companies will set up an additional 5,000 km pipelines for crude, product, LPG and natural gas, besides enhancing the capacity of the LPG bottling plant.

Pradhan said 20 lakh poor women will be given LPG connection over the next three years in Assam, including 15 lakh under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana.

“Because this size of the economic activity is now going to carry on and expand in the next few decades,” he said inviting Chinese firms to step up investments in India.

Outlining a host of measure initiated by his government, Jaitley said Goods and Services Tax (GST) bill which is pending in Rajya Sabha is expected to be passed soon.

“We are now trying to bring direct taxes down and the corporate tax to a highest level of 25 per cent. The first significant step in this regard has been taken. Over the two to three years one can expect major reforms in that direction,” he said.

“Indirect reform is pending before the Parliament and I hope to see it through very soon. It is called Goods and Services Tax (GST). We had a major challenge about resource allocation in India. We completely distanced the government from allocation and allowed the market mechanism now to determine that,” he said. Elaborating on “emphasis areas” of the development in India in the next few years, the Finance Minister said “the first emphasis area is going to be infrastructure creation.

Guwahati, Jun 24 (PTI): Public sector oil firms will invest Rs 6,000 crore in Assam during the current financial year on various activities, Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan today said.

“In this fiscal, Rs 6,000 crore investment will be made in Assam by all public sector oil firms. This amount will be invested for implementing various plans, including capacity expansion. We have already started the work,” Pradhan told reporters here.

The investment will be made by the companies for EMP, setting up new pipelines, expanding capacities and marketing among others, he added.

“As per the Hydrocarbon Vision 2030 for North East India, a total of Rs 1,30,000 crore will be invested in the region. Out of this, Rs 80,000 crore will be spent in Assam,” the minister said.

As part of its plans to develop Assam’s hydrocarbon sector, the Centre will put 12 small oilfields of the state under auction along with 55 other such discoveries across the country, he added.

“All these 67 oilfields were discovered during the last 8-40 years and are with Oil India and ONGC. As these are small oilfields, they were not so financially viable. Now we are targeting to garner Rs 30,000 crore from the auctioning of these 67 blocks,” Pradhan said. For 12 blocks in Assam, the Centre will do a roadshow

Beijing, Jun 24 (PTI): Making a strong pitch for Chinese investments in India’s expanding infrastructure sector, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today said India will be the only economy in the world which is poised to grow at 7.5 to 8 per cent in an “unsupportive global environment”.

Addressing ‘Invest in India’ Business Forum here, Jaitley said “in the immediate future we will certainly maintain the growth rates which we have”.

“Hopefully if there is good monsoon this year, which is expected to be, we have a potential to improve upon those growth rates. Even in an unsupportive global environment we probably would be only economy which moves up towards 7.5 per cent and more towards the eight per cent growth rate,” he said referring to the IMF downgrading global economic growth.

“In a supportive global environment if things change for the better I do not know what the rate itself would be.

But I am assuming that the global environment would remain the same,” he said laying out a detailed roadmap for massive development of rural and urban infrastructure across India.

“Therefore India in these roadmaps offers an attractive opportunity,” he said at the meeting attended by a large

India fails to get NSG membership, flays China

SEOUL, JUN 24 (PTI): India Friday failed in its determined bid to clinch membership of Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) in the face of strong China-led opposition after which it gave vent to its unhappiness over the hurdles created

by Beijing.

In a clear setback to its efforts to join the 48-nation grouping, a two-day NSG plenary ended here after deciding against accepting India’s membership application.

China, which had made no secret of its opposition, succeeded in scuttling India’s bid despite a significant majority backing the Indian case. Thirty-eight countries supported India, according to Indian officials.

Beijing was unrelenting in thwarting India despite Prime Minister Narendra Modi urging Chinese President Xi Jinping during a meeting in Tashkent yesterday to support India’s case on its merits.

An upset India later accused “one country”, a clear reference to China, of persistently creating procedural hurdles during the discussions on its application.

“We understand that despite procedural hurdles persistently raised by one country, a three-hour-long discussion took place last night on the issue of future participation in the NSG,” External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Vikas Swarup said.

“The NSG plenary in Seoul earlier in the day decided against granting India

Prime Minister Narendra Modi with Chinese President Xi Jinping arrive for a group photo ahead of the SCO summit in Tashkent on Friday. (PTI) membership of the grouping immediately and said it will continue to have discussions on participation of countries which have not signed the Nuclear non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

“An overwhelming number of those who took the floor supported India’s membership and appraised India’s application positively. We thank each and every one of them. It is also our understanding that the broad sentiment was to take this matter forward,” he said.

Besides China, countries like Brazil, Switzerland, Turkey, Austria, Ireland, New Zealand were also opposed to India’s entry because it is not a signatory to Nuclear non- Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

In its statement, at the conclusion of the plenary, NSG declared its “firm support” for the “full, complete and effective” implementation

of the NPT as the cornerstone of the international non-proliferation regime.

However, it said it had discussions on the issue of ‘Technical, Legal and Political Aspects of the Participation of non-NPT States in the NSG’ and decided to continue its discussion.

Confirming that the India’s application was discussed during the two-day deliberations, the statement, under a sub-heading ‘Outreach’, said it shared information on all aspects of the 2008 statement on Civil Nuclear Cooperation with India and discussed the NSG relationship with India.

Defending its opposition to entry of non-NPT countries like India into NSG, Chinese Foreign Ministry said it was guided by the rules of the 48-nation grouping which were not directed against any specific country.

GLASGOW (SCOTLAND), JUN 24 (AGENCIES): Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said Friday it is “highly likely” Scotland will hold a second independence referendum because of Britain’s decision to withdraw from the European Union, known as Brexit.

In Northern Ireland, Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness of Sinn Fein called for a vote to leave the U.K. and unite with Ireland, an EU member.

“The British government now has no democratic mandate to represent the views of the North in any future negotiations with the European Union, and I do believe that there is a democratic imperative for a ‘border poll’ to be held,” McGuinness told Irish broadcaster RTE, according to the Reuters news agency.

Thursday’s referendum vote in Northern Ireland differed from the result in Britain with 56 percent of Northern Irish voters choosing to remain in the EU, Reuters reports.

First Minister Arlene Foster rejected Sinn Fein’s call for a unification vote.

Sturgeon said she will seek powers to hold a new independence vote because of her desire to keep Scotland in the European bloc.

Xie said he saw utility poles uprooted and his tractor was blown away.

“I was drowned in my own sorrow, until I heard moans for help from a neighbour buried in the debris of her home,” he said.

Xie said at least three villagers he knew were dead.

“This is the worst day I’ve ever faced,” he said.

Top officials of Yancheng City are leading rescue and relief efforts in the affected villages. On Wednesday, the Ministry of Civil Affairs (MCA) said 42 people were killed and 25 missing in China’s 10 provincial - level regions in heavy rains in the last five days.

More than 460,000 people were relocated and 321,000 are in urgent need of emergency relief after continuous rainfall in the 10 regions in southern part of China including Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei and Sichuan, since June 18, the ministry said.

An earlier referendum vote in 2014 saw independence rejected as Scottish voters chose to stay part of Britain Sixty-two percent of Scottish voters backed remaining in the EU, and Sturgeon said that it was “democratically unacceptable” for it to have to be taken out of the EU against its will.

Pro Indians boxers register for AIBA Olympic qualifiers

NEW DELHI, Jun 24 (PTI): Three Indians, including WBC Asian title-holder Neeraj Goyat, have registered for the Inter national Boxing Association’s (AIBA) Olympic Qualifying tournament for professional boxers scheduled to be held in Venezuela from July 3 to 8.

Neeraj, who will be defending his WBC title next month, will compete in the welterweight 69kg division as no Indian boxer has qualified in this category.

Gaurav Bidhuri (52kg) and Dilbag Singh (81kg) have also thrown their hats in the fray. “I have completed the registration for the event and I hope to make the Olympics from there,” said Gaurav, who is eligible for the event owing to his participation in the AIBAbacked semi-professional World Series of Boxing (WSB), where he won four and lost an equal number of bouts during his stint.

The family members of Mr. Limawati Ao (photo attached) are hereby constrained to issue this public notice. He has been habitually duping people by collecting money in the name of different NGOs or even as home evangelist. His right leg is amputated and it might be an excuse for him to garner sympathy.

“It is amazing to play futsal. I started playing the game when I was seven years old. Premier Futsal has given me a great opportunity to make a comeback into the game and play it. I started with futsal and later played football. And now I can get back to futsal, so it feels great,” said the Brazil born-footballer who played for Portugal as attacking midfielder or central midfielder.

Premier Futsal is expected to see over 50 international players from 21 countries participate in this variant of football which is split into two halves of 20 minutes each.

Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bengaluru, Kochi, Hyderabad and Goa are the eight Indian places which will have franchise outfits in the inaugural season.

“Futsal is very easy to play. You can play it anywhere.

You can play in an attacking way and score lots of goals. I think for the skills involved in it, Indians will live this game,” Deco said.

Just months before the start of the inaugural edition, the All India Football Federation (AIFF) had opposed Premier Futsal and said it was considering legal action against the league.

AIFF general secretary Kushal Das earlier said that the federation has planned to come up with its own futsal league in the country.

Paris, Jun 24 (IANS): Spain’s veteran midfielder Andres Iniesta believes that facing a high-calibre opponent like Italy in the pre-quarterfinal can only be a boost to his team’s chances of retaining the European football championship.

A shock 1-2 defeat to Croatia in their last Group D left the title holders in second place and set up a second-round rematch of the 2012 Euro final, which Spain won 4-0 in Kiev.

Barcelona’s midfield maestro Iniesta is relishing the challenge that awaits in Paris on Monday and believes it will bring the best out in a squad bidding to win the tournament for an unprecedented third time in a row.

“They’re a powerful rival, a difficult rival, and it will be a good game. It’s a game that will be useful to us if we are to keep developing and taking steps in these Euros,” Iniesta was quoted as saying by goal. com on Thursday.

“Aside from the final four years ago, all of our games have been very closely fought out.

Italy has excellent players and a great defensive block we’ve known about for a long time,” the 32-year-old, part of Spain’s 2008 and 2012 Euro-winning team, added.

“Contrary to what I hear people saying, they also improved a great deal in terms of possession and ballhandling. They really stepped up, which makes the game on Monday even more complex and our aspirations even more difficult.”

Iniesta conceded that Spain would have preferred to win their group, as they have landed in the stronger bottom half of the draw as a result, with Germany potentially awaiting in the quarter-finals.

achieving those goals.”

T h e I n d i a n Te s t team will have a camp in Bengaluru before heading to the Caribbean for a four-Test series against West Indies, which will be Kumble’s first assignment.

“It’s nice to have a camp in Bengaluru. We will sit down and iron out our plans and be ready for West Indies,” said the former leg-spinner, who took 619 wickets in 132 Tests and 337 from 271 oneday internationals.

“Getting 20 wickets in Test cricket will win you matches and that will be the focus,” he said, adding that he wanted to work in the background and take the pressure off his captain’s shoulders, both on and off the field.

“I believe this team has the potential. It’s a young team and it’s driven by a young leader and it will be nice to work with Virat (Kohli).”

India are set for a bumper season at home with 13 Test matches, eight ODIs and three T20 internationals.

They start with three Tests against New Zealand in October while England and Australia will play five and four matches respectively.

Bangladesh will play a oneoff Test.

were on the other side of the table. “It was very strange. It was quite nerve-racking.”

While the Indian team under Virat Kohli won Test series in Sri Lanka and beat South Africa 3-0 at home, their record outside the subcontinent in the longest format has been poor.

They have lost Test series in South Africa, New Zealand, England and Australia on tours since late 2013, something Kumble wants to rectify.

MUMBAI, Jun 24 (Agencies): A force to be reckoned with at home, India’s Test side have struggled away from the subcontinent in recent years and new skipper Anil Kumble has put top priority on building a team that can travel with confidence.

Kumble, India’s most successful bowler, was given a one-year term as head coach on Thursday with the country’s cricket board (BCCI) putting their faith in the 45-year-old despite his lack of coaching experience.

The BCCI received 57 applications for the job, which were then made available to an advisory panel that included former captains Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly and former batsman VVS Laxman -- all of whom have played with Kumble.

Ku m b l e ’s c o a c h i n g experience has been limited to being a mentor to the Mumbai and Bangalore teams in the Indian Premier League T20 tour nament, and he said his first job interview was a “nerve-racking” experience.

“It was very different because this was the first (job) interview that I was attending,” Kumble said. “My colleagues who I have played with throughout my career

Mumbai, Jun 24 (IANS): Ranked 163 by the FIFA, India is not shining in world football now, but it can change if children are encouraged to take up the game with an aim to participate at the highest level, says former Portugal star Anderson Luis de Souza, also known as Deco.

In an interview to IANS, he said a beginning can be made by way of futsal -- a variant of football played in a smaller field, indoors -- which will help the children with their skills.

“I think first you need to give a chance to the children to play. That’s why futsal is so important. Futsal is important if you want to be a professional footballer. Futsal will help you a lot with skills. The key is to give opportunity to the children to perform, motivate them to play and show them how the game is played,” Deco told IANS. Deco, the former Chelsea and FC Barcelona star, who at the start of his career played futsal, pointed out that playing the five-a-side version would help youngsters learn the skills which they can later implement in football.

The 38-year-old, who has won the UEFA Champions League with two clubs -- FC Porto in 2004 and FC Barcelona in 2006 -- was roped in as a star player for the world’s first-ever multinational futsal league, Premier Futsal, which will be played in India across eight

Rooney to end Eng’s disappointing record

Wayne Rooney and his England team-mates during a practise session.

Paris, Jun 24 (Agencies): Wayne Rooney is on a mission to end England’s “disappointing” record in major tournaments and believes his side can go all the way at Euro 2016.

England have never made a final of the European Championships, with just two semi-final appearances (1968, 1996) to their name.

Since their last semifinal appearance on home soil in 1996, England have

faced three group-stage exits in major tournaments, while they failed to qualify for Euro 2008.

Rooney has competed in six tournaments for England since making his debut in 2003, but his only knockout win came against Ecuador at the 2006 World Cup, and the Manchester United skipper is out to end their disappointing cycle.

“You don’t play for the achievement of getting to a

Vikas Krishan and Manoj Kumar settle for bronze

BAKU, Jun 24 (PTI): Already through to the Olympics, Indian boxers Vikas Krishan (75kg) and Manoj Kumar (64kg) on Friday had to be content with bronze medals in the International Boxing Association’s (AIBA) World Qualifying Tournament here.

While Vikas was declared medically unfit and had to concede his bout against Turkmenistan’s Achilov Arslanbek, Manoj lost 0-3 to reigning European champion Pat McCormack of Britain.

In another disappointing news for India, Sumit Sangwan’s (81kg) hopes of qualifying for the Olympics also ended on Friday. Sumit, who lost to top seed Petr Khamukov of Russia in the quarterfinal last night, would have remained in contention had his opponent gone on to win the gold medal. But the Russian chose to give a walkover in the semifinal, dashing Sumit’s hopes.

Vikas sustained the cut last night during his quarterfinal contest against Korea’s Lee Dongyun. The Indian

triumphed 3-0 to make the semifinal and assure himself of an Olympic quota berth.

However, the injury he sustained required stitches on his forehead, which forced him out of Friday’s semifinal clash.

“Vikas Krishan can’t box today as he was declared medically unfit by the official doctors of the competition in the morning weigh in and medical examination because of stitches above his eyes,” an official of the Indian team said.

Also in action on Friday in the evening session would be Commonwealth Games silver-medallist L Devendro Singh (49kg), who will have to beat Spaniard Carmona Heredia Samuel in the semifinal to be assured of a berth in the Olympics as only two quota places are up for grabs in his weight category.

So far, three Indian boxers have qualified for the Olympic Games. Apart from Vikas and Manoj, Shiva Thapa (56kg) has also made the cut, booking his berth in the Asian Qualifiers in March.

“We want to win it and that’s the aim. I am not going to sit here and say we are a group of young players, so we’ll be happy to get to the quarter-finals, the future’s bright over the next two-four years.

Argentina snubs Messi for Rio BUENOS AIRES, Jun 24 (Agencies): Argentina coach Gerardo Martino on Thursday named part of his squad for the Rio Olympics but superstar Lionel Messi was not included after being chosen for the Copa America instead.

The full list of 22 will be revealed in the coming days but not before Sunday’s final of the Copa, where Argentina take on holders Chile .

Messi’s exclusion was expected. He won gold at the Beijing Olympics in 2008 but Martino had already decided that the Barcelona star would not compete at both the Copa and the Olympics in August.

Nine players were named in the squad on Thursday.

They were Giovani Lo Celso (Rosario Central), Geronimo Rulli (Real Sociedad), Angel Correa (Atletico Madrid), Emmanuel Mammana (River Plate), Jonathan Silva (Boca Juniors), Jose Luis Gomez (Lanus), Mauricio Martinez (Union), Leandro Paredes (Empoli) and Cristian Espinoza (Huracan).

Argentina were Olympic champions in 2004 and 2008 and will be favourites in Rio.

pens remains to be seen, but we are not going to say that getting to the quarter-finals will be a sign of progress. I believe we are better than that.”

He added: “In my time, playing for England in tournaments has been disappointing, because we haven’t gone further in knockout stages.

“But I feel we have a chance of doing really well in this tournament. It’s going to be tough but we are confident, we have a very good team.

“I don’t want to be remembered as a captain who wasn’t good for his team, wasn’t good for his teammates and wasn’t good for his club or country.

“I want to be a success and I think with everything I have done I have always wanted to be successful and I want to be a successful captain for both Man United and England, so I still feel I have got time to do that with England and hopefully it will be in the next few weeks.”

While Rooney has been in good form for England in a midfield role, one man who has had a difficult time in France so far is Harry Kane.

The Tottenham striker who won the Premier League golden boot in 2015-16 - failed to find the net in the group stages, but Rooney believes the goals will soon come.

“I think it is difficult [for Kane] because I have seen it a lot throughout my career, especially at Manchester United when you play as a striker and teams sit back so it is very difficult,” he said.

“It is difficult to get touches of the ball, to get that yard to get your shot in. I think it is important to be patient.

You don’t have to try and do everything when you get the ball. You have to be patient.

Your chances will come.

“Harry knows he is a goal away from everything changing. He knows he has the potential to win us the game on Monday, to win us the quarter-final. He is a special player and is a natural goalscorer. A great finisher.

“If he gets chances he will score goals and hopefully those chances will come.”

Salgaocar, SC Goa pulls out of I-League

New Delhi, Jun 24 (PTI): Two of Indian football’s traditional outfits, Salgaocar FC and Sporting Clube de Goa, today decided to “withdraw” from the forthcoming season of I-League over the AIFF’s decision to restructure the domestic league system.

The decision was made public in a joint statement issued by the two Goa-based clubs.

The AIFF, which on May 17 met various stakeholders, including its marketing partners IMG-Reliance, virtually recognised ISL as the country’s premier league as per its draft plan, while deciding to form a three-tier football system in India from 2017-18.

“Over the past few weeks, Salgaocar Football Club and Sporting Clube de Goa have had several rounds of discussions and have deliberated the impact that the May

17th proposal will have on the state of the sport. It is clear that the proposal is highly discriminatory, goes against sporting merit, is unworkable for I-League clubs and hampers Goa, which is the best represented state in the I-League, the most,” the two clubs said in a statement.

It added, “Therefore, rather than waiting for another year to face the inevitable, Salgaocar Football Club and Sporting Clube de Goa have decided to take the painful decision to withdraw from the forthcoming edition of the I-League.”

The AIFF has also faced opposition to its proposed plans from legacy clubs such as Mohun Bagan and East Bengal. The exit of Salgaocar and Sporting Clube de Goa will come as another blow.

Detailing the sequence of events from the May 17

meeting, the two Goan heavyweights called AIFF’s proposals ‘shocking’ and ‘disheartening’.

“At this meeting a detailed proposal was presented, which is heavily biased against the I-League and its clubs.

Not only does it relegate the ILeague to a second tier league, but also does away with promotion, thereby replacing merit with a franchisee fee as the primary criteria for participating in the top league.

“The ISL, hitherto termed as only a tournament by the AIFF, would leapfrog the I-League to become the nation’s top league, with no relegation. This was shocking and disheartening, especially considering the repeated claims made by representatives of AIFF and FIFA that the I-League was the premier league competition in the country.”
