KOHIMA, JUN 3 (NPN): Union minister for law and justice, D.V. Sadananda Gowda on Friday assured to again write to the chief justice of Gauhati High Court to give opinion with regard to separate high court for the Nagaland.

He said that the need for a full fledged high court for the state was the view of the government. The union minister said that the chief minister has concurred and written a letter to the ministry and sequentially the ministry has written to the Chief Justice Gauhati High Court in August 2015.

Union minister said that concurrent has to be given by the Gauhati High Court for bifurcation while infrastructure has to be given by the state.

Gowda said the if the Chief Justice concurred, the matter would be immediately taken care because all other small states have high courts except Nagaland, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh.

He also said that about three district courts could not be computerized because of connectivity problems. The union minister, however, assured to work on it.

When asked about elevation of judgeship as currently there was only one Naga judge in Gauhati High Court, Gowda said appointment of judge was exclusively under the domain of judiciary for selection and appointment. He said the

Education policy report to be made public: Irani NEW DELHI, JUN 3 (PTI): The report of the TSR Subramanian- led Committee on evolution of a National Education Policy (NEP) will be made public only after its recommendations are shared with states and “not just for the sake of headlines”, HRD Minister Smriti Irani Friday said.

At a press conference here, she was asked about former Cabinet Secretary Subramanian’s letter seeking that the contents of the report be made public by the HRD ministry otherwise he would proceed to do it himself.

“This education policy will not become a legacy of one individual who seeks a headline,” she replied.

“It is the property of one lakh tens thousand villages, over 5000 blocks, over 500 districts, over 20 states that have given it to us with the confidence that any recommendation that comes to us will be shared with them before it is made a draft policy,” the HRD minister added. She said when the process of drafting NEP was initiated, it was promised that before putting anything in public domain, the opinion of states would be taken.

“It is true, that on May 27 we got some recommendations, but still state governments have to express their opinions. So to present an incomplete thing before the people, I feel, would be an injustice...,” Irani replied.

This is it!

“I see all past and present governments in the reverse-- backdoor appointments, backward fund, backward area etc.”

Nagas fortunate to have Art. 371 A: CM DIMAPUR, JUN 3 (NPN): Nagaland chief minister T.R. Zeliang said Nagaland was most fortunate to have specific mention in the Constitution of India— Article 371 (A), about protection of the traditions, cultures and religious practices of the Nagas and more importantly, assurance of ownership of the land and its resources.

Interacting with a delegation of the Central Naga Tribes Council (CNTC) led by its president Hokiye Yeptho at his office chambers on Friday, Zeliang pointed out that as compared to Mizoram (Article 371 G), where the special provision cites only “ownership and transfer of land”, Nagaland was privileged to enjoy the status of owning the resources as well. He expressed dismay that the people of Nagaland “did not protest against the unilateral violation of some important points of the 16-point Agreement of 1960, such as placement of the state of Nagaland under Home Ministry from the Ministry of External Affairs as contained in Point number 2 of the Agreement, and the financial assistance to the State from the Consolidated Fund as mentioned in Point number 11 of the Agreement which was never kept.”

It was time for people to be more aware of their rights and how to protect them, he added. With regard to oil issue, Zeliang apprised the CNTC about the tussle between the Ministry of Petroleum, Government of India and the state government over exploration

and extraction of petroleum and natural gas in the State.

He said that the Ministry of Petroleum termed it as unconstitutional for the state government to frame the Rules & Regulations on Petroleum and Natural Gas quoting the Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Act, 1948. However, the state argued that as per 13th Amendment of the Constitution of India, December 1963 by which Article 371 A was inserted into the Constitution and Statehood for Nagaland was created, had, in effect, over-ruled the 1948 Act, he said.

He said that the ministry was also made known of the Article 371 A wherein states that “notwithstanding anything in this Constitution, no Act of Parliament in respect of … ownership and transfer of land and its resources, shall apply to the State of Nagaland unless the Legislative Assembly of Nagaland by a resolution so decides.”.

The chief minister also informed the delegation that he had written a letter in September 2015 to the Union Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas, after the Ministry had put up for auction two oil blocks in Nagaland decrying the decision.

Though there were reports of few oil blocks located in Nagaland, that were included in the list of 69 oil fields to be opened for competitive bidding, he however said that the government had framed the NP&NGR 2012 in accordance

with Article 371-A(1) (a) of the Constitution of India.

Based on this rules, he said that the state government had already invited Expressions Of Interest from interested oil companies, and was in the process of allocating the oil blocks in Nagaland.

As such the ministry’s competitive bidding was not appropriate, he said.

He cautioned that such a decision by Government of India at this juncture would have an “adverse impact on the on-going peace negotiations to resolve the Naga political issue, which is in an advanced stage now.”

Based on Article 371 (A), solution for Naga political issue was one of key point, he added. Accordingly, the matter was kept in abeyance with the arguments of the state government being seriously scrutinized by the Government of India, Zeliang told the delegation.

However, on the other hand Zeliang lamented that a tribal Hoho had filed a PIL in the Court and the matter was shifted to the legal arena where the state government’s efforts to carry out oil exploration and extraction was stalled.

“If we can’t fight for, protect what is legally ours today in our lifetime, future Naga generations will curse us,” he said and requested the leaders from the three major Naga tribes--- Ao, Lotha and Sumi, to create awareness about the negative ramifications of the PIL.

FCI clarifies on supply of worm-infested rice State govt. sits on March 5 incident report DIMAPUR, JUN 3 (NPN): Food Cooperation of India (FCI) has sought to clarify the reports that was published in local dailies pertaining to supply of worm-infested and uneatable rice under Mid-Day Meal Scheme (MDMS) to some schools in Mokokchung district, non-implementation of MDMS in some other schools and an apparent “confusion” between the roles of FCI and state government in implementation of the MDMS. In a press release, FCI general manager (R) Anenla T Sato asserted that following the reports published in local dailies on March 10, 2016 pertaining to supply of worm-infested rice for MDM, the department of school education through its secretary, assuming worminfested food grain was directly coming from FCI godown, claimed that FCI had agreed “in principle” to replace the rice although no FCI official had given such assurance.

The release pointed out that government of India allocated rice/wheat @100 grams per primary student (class I to V) and @150 grams per up-

per primary (class VI to VIII) student per school day in age group of six to fourteen years.

Stating that rice allocations for the first two quarters of 2016-17 (April—Sept 2016) were 2507.07 MT, the release said those allocations were to be lifted from the nearest FCI godown by the respective district administrations as per district-wise allocations made by the state government on monthly, bi-monthly and quarterly basis.

According to the release, the samples (in triplicate) of stocks from where to be lifted were jointly drawn by the representatives of the state government and FCI and the sample slips jointly signed and sealed.

“These samples are to be retained for three months in token of quality of food grains received from FCI,” FCI general manager said, adding that in case of any complaint of low quality of food grains was received within this period, those samples were to be used to ascertain the veracity of the complaint.

The release also stated

that Nagaland government had authorised M/S Vitoi Sumi to lift the entire allocations of MDM food grains for Nagaland for the period 2015-16. The allocations for the last three quarters were lifted by the authorised agency during September 2016 (July— Sept/15), December 2015 (Oct—Dec/15) and March 2016 (Jan—Mar/16) after joint sampling and satisfaction of the quality of the food grain, it stated.

Further, stating that quality of food grains in FCI godowns were maintained by quality control staff in conformity with standards set by FSSAI, the release said the joint samples of food grains lifted during those periods were preserved by the quality control staff. At a joint meeting of state government, department of school education, FCI and state government MDM carriage contractor on March 13, 2016 in the directorate of school education, the joint samples were produced and on visual inspection found to be a good quality, the release said.

DIMAPUR, JUN 3 (NPN): After being caught flat footed during the run up to the March 5, 2015 incident in Dimapur and subsequent storming of the Central Jail by a mob and resulting in the brutal killing of a rape accused; the state government ordered an inquiry to probe the incident and identify and prosecute those responsible.

Subsequently the oneman Inquiry by retired district and sessions judge Veprasa Nyekha was expanded when retired justice B.D. Agarwal was appointed to head the probe and also to make recommendations to the government.

During the press conference called by the JIC team on Friday at Chumukedima police complex, copies of a report with recommendations were handed out to mediapersons, though the final report was not handed out.

JIC report, besides giving out various recommendations, laid emphasis on “detection

Veprasa Nyekha and justice (rtd) B.D. Agarwal (NP)

and deportation of foreigners”, by effectively implementing stringent legal provision like the National Register of Citizens (NRC), which was being done in Assam.

JIC stated that though Nagaland had already adopted the system of Inner Line Permit since British rule, despite existence of such stringent legal provision the influx of IBIs was still unabated.

In this regard, JIC felt the need to update NRC in the state of Nagaland, which it said would go a long way to solve the critical issue of detecting foreign nationals.

Further, the JIC report

stated that the state government had informed the commission that it was not necessary to ascertain the names of culprits as it was to be examined by the investigation agency (Central Bureau Investigation).

The government further informed the commission “to mostly confine to the issue of dereliction of duty by the government officials and not to find out the culprits, which task is assigned to the CBI.” On the request of the commission nine written statements were submitted by the individuals, school authorities, students’ organizations etc. on the other hand, 38 written statements were filed by government officers, the report said.

“Though the government declined to appoint lawyers to assist the commission 30 witnesses were crossexamined by the chairman and member themselves to obtain certain clarifications,” the report stated.

According to sources, the inquiry commission on the

March 5, 2015 had received a number of extensions and that the final report and recommendation was reportedly submitted to the chief minister and chief secretary on March 9, 2016.

Sources said that though the then DC and SP Dimapur including Central Jail superintendent were immediately placed under suspension and the then DC recently transferred as DC of a district, the inquiry commission was stonewalled by the poor cooperation from public and legal fumbling by the state.

Talks should not be a mystery for Nagas: NPCC

DIMAPUR: Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) president K. Therie has said that the 16-point agreement signed between GOI and Naga People’s Convention (NPC) has fulfilled self-determination to a great extent.

Addressing a public meeting organised by Chozuba Range Public Organization on June 1 at Vamuzo Memorial Town Hall, Chozuba, Therie said the dialogue going on between Naga National workers and GOI should not be a mystery to Naga people.

He said that the mandated government should know what is being discussed, participate and support the discussion by understanding what is good for the Nagas and what is not. Therie also lamented

that many schemes from outside the state plan have been misused and that the real beneficiaries were not getting their share as was envisioned by the past Congress government at the Centre.

On the ‘clean election’ call of NBCC, he said it failed in implementation and because of that the Congress while trying to follow that principle failed in the 2014 general election. He expressed the need for people to nurture clean hearts which can only be cultivated from within and called for a government that is not corrupted, does not believe in money power and does not cheat people and a government that believes in moral and ethical rights and clean, good governance, be given a chance.

Therie also remembered

the constituency’s past leaders and said that the need of the people today is honesty and moral liberty. Emphasizing on the need for moral and ethical values in electing good leaders, he elucidated on the leadership in Chakhesang area that Chozuba constituency has produced and said that freedom of decision making was also important in life.

In his brief speech, former MLA and AICC member Lanpha Konyak exhorted the meeting and said that Christianity came to Chakhesangs comparatively earlier and that the Chakhesang community had elected clean leaders in the past. He urged the community

not to let money power be the agent for election in future and also appealed to the gathering to pray for the Nagas as the state is lagging behind in all spheres.

Addressing the meeting, president, DCC, Mon, Chingwang Konyak urged the people of Chozuba range to elect a corrupt-free leader, who has a clean heart to work for the future of the Nagas and called for the proper implementation of NBCC’s guidelines on clean election. The programme was chaired by Vehupra Chuzho, president, Sekruzu Range Public Organization while invocation was said by Rev. Vekusa. Mikha Kenye, President, DCC, Phek, conducted the introduction and a special song was presented by the Hindi school students.

to organize Campaign for good roads a ‘collective appeal’ KVYO tree plantation

DIMAPUR: While acknowledging the minster of Road and Bridges for his response to the campaign for good roads, Concerned Citizens of Nagaland (CCN) has reiterated that the campaign was not against any individual minister, party or the government but was a collective appeal to all the authorities in a collective manner for basic amenities that was over due to the citizens of Nagaland.

The campaign on good roads under the slogan, “good roads, citizens’ right” was carried out on May 14 at Dimapur and all the other districts in the state.

CCN said that good quality roads and proper drainage cannot be compromised on the excuse of paucity of funds and appealed that the voice of the suffering citizens be placed as “priority” and “necessity” that needs urgent attention from the Centre as well.

“Good Road campaign was an expression of serious concern by the public as there were growing evidences of roads in Nagaland with full of potholes and ponds resulting in anger and dismay among the general public,” CCN said.

Maintaining that road contractors were left with little of the actual contract budget amount because of ugly corrupt practices in the form of commissions, departmental deductions, NPGs tax, etc. leaving the contractor to compromise on workmanship, CCN asked why such deductions and commissions can’t be stopped so that proper quality roads could be constructed.

CCN also appealed to the Telecoms and PHED departments as well to adhere to its norms and work judiciously so that hindrance would be avoided while digging and installing wires and pipes.

On roads being construct-

ed by different departments/ agencies, CCN clarified that it was not suitable neither needed that different “Road Campaigns” be held for different departments namely PWD ,BRO, Army supply Road or NHAN etc hence, a collective campaign for the collective departments were made in a collective manner.

In this regard, CCN requested all the departments to consider the appeal of the citizens and put into work their dynamic and quality workmanship for the people, as the citizens of Nagaland had for the past decades, lost the sense and sight of having the luxury of good roads. Meanwhile, CCN has extended its support and co-operation towards the minster of road and bridges and the departments as and when needed in its pursuit to deliver good roads to the deserving people of Nagaland as “Citizens’ Right.”

“22 rioters were killed in the violence. These include 11 persons who were killed in a fire started by the agitators,” he said. The deceased also included a woman.

tions “are strongly refuted.”

It said his statement has been misquoted.

The External Affairs Minister reacted to the controversy today saying the DG NIA has already issued a clarification and it put out the government’s position that “the involvement of Pakistan’s nationals in the Pathankot Air Base attack is an accepted fact.

“I would remind you that investigations are ongoing. Foreign Secretary had conveyed to his Pakistani counterpart when they met in New Delhi in April that it was time for review of progress in investigation in the attack after return of Pakistan’s JIT, which had gathered all evidence that it had wanted when it visited India,” External Affairs spokesperson said in a statement.

He said enough information has also been provided to Pakistani authorities through two Letters Rogatory to conduct investigation in Pakistan so that all those associated in Pakistan with planning, support and execution of the attack are brought to justice.

Mamata Banerjee with her colleagues Amit Mitra and Partha Chaterjee at the first State Level Administrative Review meeting at Town Hall in Kolkata on Friday. (PTI) KOLKATA, JUN 3 (PTI): West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday hit out at the Centre for “increasing tax burden” on people and making Aadhaar card mandatory for getting benefit of government schemes.

Banerjee said expenses were increasing for the people by means of service tax and cess.

Even the bill for mediclaim has increased from Rs 17,000 to Rs 30,000, she said and criticised the Centre for Aadhaar cards, saying that 20-30 per cent people still did not have the cards.

She said poor people would be deprived of the benefits and money from government schemes if they don’t have the card.

After the first administrative review meeting of the new government, Banerjee said she had given instructions to restart all development work which had remained stalled for the last few months due to the

Assembly polls.

In the last financial year 2015-16, the state plan expenditure budget was Rs 49,507 crore but the actual expenditure was Rs 53,010 crore.

“In other states the total amount of planned expenditure funds is not spent but we exceeded by 15 per cent,” she said, adding there is no such instance of actual plan expenditure surpassing the budgeted figure in the last 20 years.

For the new financial year 2016-17, the finance department has released Rs 11,573 crore for which directions were issued to take steps for their immediate utilisation.

In 2010-11, the plan expenditure was around Rs 14,000 crore which has increased by nearly four times to Rs 53,010 crore now.

NEW DELHI, JUN 3 (PTI): The reported statement of NIA Chief that so far there is no hand of Pakistan government or its agency in helping JeM carry out the Pathankot attack has triggered a sparring between India and Pakistan with New Delhi saying that involvement of its nationals “is an accepted fact”.

Even as the NIA backtracked on its chief Sharad Kumar’s statement, on its part Islamabad, touted his remarks to claim “vindication” of its long standing position in this regard.

The whole row started over a written interview purportedly given by Kumar to a television channel in which he had said “no. So far, no evidence to show that Pakistan government or Pakistani government agency was helping Jaish-e- Mohammed (JeM) or Masood Azhar or his aides carry out Pathankot attack.”

Crossing the danger mark

W

orld Environment Day (also called as WED) has been started celebrating as an annual event on every fifth of June since 1973 in order to raise the global awareness about the importance of the healthy and green environment in the human lives, to solve the environmental issues by implementing some positive environmental actions as well as to make aware common public worldwide that everyone is responsible for saving his environment and not only somebody, government or organizations working for it. On June 5, 2016 the theme of the WED is “Join The Race To Make The World A Better Place”. World Environment Day annual celebration campaign was started to address the huge environmental issues like wastage and losses of food, deforestation, increasing global warming and so many.

Every year celebration is planned according to the particular theme and slogan of the year to bring effectiveness in the campaign all through the world.

The objective of WED is to spread awareness about environmental issues; encourage public to actively participate in the programmes and become active agents in developing environmental safety measures and encourage people to make surroundings safe and clean. Scientists who have been following the global warning phenomenon describe as “stunning” the correlation between a rise in ocean temperature over the past 40 years and pollution of atmosphere. According to a finding, there has been considerable warming of the planetary system and approximately 90 per cent of that warming has gone directly into the oceans during the past forty years. At the local level, Nagaland is among those states in India which have done poorly with regard to protection and preservation of the environment. A case in point is illustrated by the once lush green and thickly forested Rangapahar Reserved forest which had occupied around 21,768 acres when it was under Assam and then handed over to the newly created state of Nagaland. Years of systematic illegal logging and deforestation had been raised by this newspaper since 1990. The newspaper also exposed the symbiotic relationship between some officials and log smugglers and the huge loss caused to the exchequer with photographs in 1991. This has angered department and the government of the day. The encroachment inside Rangapahar reserved forest was also exposed with regularity and despite strong denials by the government; the forest continued to shrink. Today barely 300 acres is left from the original 21,768 Acres and that too under severe encroachment. Probably people may not feel that the acts of some towards depredation of the environment could cause serious environmental crisis leading to the catastrophic warning. The sad fact is that such acts, be is of any degree, results in a cumulative effect worldwide. The Wildlife Protection Act (1972) has enough teeth but as the rule of law has no place under the argument of the privilege clause under Article 371(A); there is serious need for a debate and clarity of what is good and bad for the people and their future. A very few people have raised the issue to counter the mind boggling destruction of the rich natural flora and fauna of the people. The issue has already crossed the danger mark and that itself is indeed a tragedy in Nagaland.

DailyDevotion “The Secret of the Lord” The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him… —Psalm 25:14 What is the sign of a friend? Is it that he tells you his secret sorrows? No, it is that he tells you his secret joys.

Many people will confide their secret sorrows to you, but the final mark of intimacy is when they share their secret joys with you. Have we ever let God tell us any of His joys?

Or are we continually telling God our secrets, leaving Him no time to talk to us? At the beginning of our Christian life we are full of requests to God. But then we find that God wants to get us into an intimate relationship with Himself— to get us in touch with His purposes. Are we so intimately united to Jesus Christ’s idea of prayer— “Your will be done” (Matthew 6:10)— that we catch the secrets of God? What makes God so dear to us is not so much His big blessings to us, but the tiny things, because they show His amazing intimacy with us— He knows every detail of each of our individual lives.

“Him shall He teach in the way He chooses” (Psalm 25:12). At first, we want the awareness of being guided

by God. But then as we grow spiritually, we live so fully aware of God that we do not even need to ask what His will is, because the thought of choosing another way will never occur to us. If we are saved and sanctified, God guides us by our everyday choices. And if we are about to choose what He does not want, He will give us a sense of doubt or restraint, which we must heed. Whenever there is doubt, stop at once. Never try to reason it out, saying, “I wonder why I shouldn’t do this?” God instructs us in what we choose; that is, He actually guides our common sense.

And when we yield to His teachings and guidance, we no longer hinder His Spirit by continually asking, “Now, Lord, what is Your will?”

In this regard, we the Deputy District Education Officers (DDEOs) of all eleven districts would like to clarify some of the facts and situations leading to this imbroglio.

In the year 1991, inorder to go along with the national education pattern and for improving the education system, the state government of Nagaland notified for opening of higher secondary schools education under the flagship programme of “Operation Blackboard”.

Initially, it was started in four districts only but later on continued opening more in a phase wise manner.

Accordingly, the classes of 11 & 12 were started after recruiting the teachers from in service graduate teachers i.e.

50% of post and 50% post for those who were having requisite qualification of M.A,/M. SC/M.COM with above 50% marks for the direct recruitment.

Accordingly, the recruitment of teachers was conducted by NPSC and appointment orders were issued basing on the merit. Along with the progress and the good response received from the public, and also because of the delinking of Pre-university and class 11& 12 from Colleges as per the UGC norms, more Hr. secondary schools were opened in other Districts and some sub-divisions.

At present, there are altogether 41 government higher secondary schools in the state which shows a great progress and achievements by producing many responsible and talented officers who are performing well and excelling in different fields both in the state and national level.

During the last 20 years of our service as subject teach-

A

ers and administrators in the school, we had never come across any misunderstanding between the higher secondary and secondary section nor any division in the schools.

All the teachers from both the sections used to help each other even for taking classes and worked together as one family.

According to our understanding, such division and misunderstanding started only after the Re-structuring and Revamping of the deptt. of school education in 2011. Under this re-structuring, mass promotion were given to the secondary officers in the name of one time arrangement by giving even double/ triple promotion within a year. But sad to say that, such arrangements were never done for the higher secondary officers.

It was only in 2012, that some of the senior Principals were promoted as Dy. District Education officers (D.D.E.O) as the post was created during restructuring of the department.

Prior to the re-structuring/ revamping, the line of promotion for Principal was to promote either as Dy. Director in the directorate or District Education officer in the district. But, unfortunately, DEO post was upgraded to Jt. Director post and it was entirely reserved only for the officers from secondary section and, Dy. DEO was entirely reserved for Hr. Secondary section.

That was the main reason which led to the present situation where the senior officers from hr. sec. section (D.D.E.O) are made to serve and control by the juniors who were serving as a graduate teacher under them (principal) and naturally, the conflict and misunderstanding between the two sections started as the Hr. Secondary officers/ as the secondary section were promoted 2-3 times within a short span of time due to their double triple promotion.

At present, there is only 1 DEO post being occupied by the officer from secondary section but in all the remaining Districts all the DEO post are lying vacant and DDEOs

are holding the DEO post on current charge for the last 3 to 4 yrs . In case of promotion of Secondary officers, DDEOs used to hand over the charge to them and again take back the current charge in case of their further promotion/ retirement from service.

The DDEOs are made to carry out all duties and responsibilities of the district without any allowances nor benefit in the absence of DEO. There are 19 Jt. Director post in the department and out of which, only one Jt. Director post is given to the Hr. Secondary section and that is one of the reason why at present, the post of Principal Director and 2 post of Directors are lying vacant in the department inspite of fulfilling all the criteria and eligibility of the officers from Hr. secondary section. Recently a proposal for mass promotion for the Secondary section was put up to the Government but, P&AR. department turned down their random proposal for non fulfillment of the criteria which was unlike the previous years where random promotion was given to sec. section and as they cannot jump up to the higher post without the approval, that is also one of the factors for demanding the total bifurcation of education department.

The present Dy. DEOs have cleared DPC (Departmental promotion committee) but they are denied promotion citing the reservation policy in the department since 2011.

The agitators rightly said that, within a span of 8-10 yrs PGTs are becoming class one officers (V.P) This is because, there should be an administrator in all the higher secondary schools as it is mandatory to have an administrator to look after the institution along with the opening of more higher secondary schools in the state otherwise, who will take care of the schools without an administrator.

Being an intellectual one need to be more logical in all our thinking and thoughts for every action/ circumstances.

To cite an example; An IAS officer whose length of

service may be only few years but they can occupy the highest post in any deptt. by virtue of their higher cadre and respectable entry point which no one can questioned. This is the same case with the G/T & PGT. It is not very wise to blame each other and spoil the career of the students by taking up issues with selfish motive for an individual benefit without considering for the general public ( being a public servant) There are other ways and means for solution to every problem through negotiation if necessary for proper streamlining of the deptt.

We, as a builder of nation and molder of students’ career, we need to be more inclined towards the students welfare.

May be, the agitators must be expecting the same bonus they received before where, they were given double triple promotion whereby, they superseded all the senior officers from the higher secondary section. But now it is observed that, P& AR deptt is doing justice to all by strictly going by the standing service rule of the government and hope that same yardstick is applied to all its employees.

If we want to fight for our own right by resorting to agitation by forgetting our duty towards the society, we have every genuine reasons / justification for agitation in any forms. But, realizing the noble service towards the society, our conscience does not allow us to do so but, patiently waiting for the government to deliver justice as we cannot harm anyone’s career.

he media hyped the Bihar topper girl’s explanation of Political Science as ‘Cooking food’ (Khana banane ke bare mein); to which many critics and trolls are making fun of Bihar’s education and exam systems and the credibility; to the extend the state has to intervene to save the Bihar’s already tarnished face, of education.

Whatever is the girl’s Political Science IQ level, which the media and society are now obsessed and mocking, and which she will get her own reward for cheating in exam; However, I feel that her speech mishap opens another Pandora Box of Political Science, for women,-’cooking food’.

Let us face the reality!

What is the space of women in Politics? The society, over patriarchal, condemns women to remain in the four walls of kitchen; her roles are cooking and reproducing. If we ask any patriarchy about his/ her opinion on ‘women in Politics’, the usual replies are...

“Politics is the responsibility of men. Why should women join politics? Their space is only in kitchen to cook food.

How can a woman who spends her entire life inside kitchen join politics? Do women even know Politics? Women know only how to cook, not politics, women should know that cooking food and politics are not same...etc etc”. The Bihari girl rightly, rather foolishly by popular opinion, said ‘Political Science is about cooking food’.

(Let us forget the Prodigal Science part).

When the education system still reminds children on family roles..Father: bread earner, Mother: Kitchen, cook food; when the education system still reminds little girls that ‘girls should be good in cooking’. That reminds of my school days when one of our teacher, a female, yelled at one of our classmate because she failed in Moral Science, “You girl, if you don’t want to study, better get married and cook food for your husband”. However, education also made one to question: Women should be cooking at home, OR, women

should join politics.

Even in the political debates, one of the major subjects on equality discussed has a core theme “Women, Kitchencooking and Politics”! How long women will be confined to kitchen, how long women will go on cooking. Forever??

Whenever any affirmative laws are proposed to bring women into Politics (example 33% reservation), the men and society are already anxious “if my wife/mother joins politics, who will cook food at home?”

A woman may excel in education, but, at the end of the day, she is expected or will end up ‘cooking food’; if she does not cook food, then she will be branded “bad woman/useless woman”.

Maybe, Political Science for women is after all ‘cooking food’, because the Politics (Relating to Citizens/Affairs of Polis) already ascribe the role of women-Cooking Food.

Unless the society, system, education and men finally acknowledge the political importance of women (not just as vote bank) and that the age old customary excuse “women should only cook food” is annihilated, I don’t find anything radically wrong in the Bihari girl’s definition of Political Science “Khana banane ke bare mein”. In fact, this actually highlights the political plight and political discrimination against women.

In a society that is dominated by patriarchy values and ethics, Political Science, after all, for women is only about ‘cooking food’: she will cook food, men will eat, men will then have enough strength to participate in the politics and then men will say “Politics and political matters are not for women; women should concentrate on cooking”. Ahh, when will Nagas finally acknowledge the Political Rights of Naga women, or, are we also suppose to confine our dear Naga women in the kind of Political Science that deals only in cooking food?

Judicial Inquiry Commission on March 5 incident

n unprecedented incident took place in the heart of the city of Dimapur in the state of Nagaland on 05.03.2015 which raised a serious question about the safety of prisoners in various jails in the state of Nagaland. The incident has also a reflection on the majesty of law, human rights violation of an under investigation prisoner and law & order situation, and also to some extent effectiveness of justice delivery system in the state of Nagaland.

2. In the afternoon of 05.03.2015 a mob of few thousand people took out a procession from City Tower, Dimapur City and made forcible entry in the Central Jail campus at Chumukedima, which is situated at a distance of about Kms from the town. The crowd broke open nearly half a dozen iron gates to catch hold an accused of rape and give him instant punishment. Through the accused/deceased Sayed Sarif Khan was kept concealed in a solitary cell in an extreme corner of the jail campus the mob was successful to trace him out and forcibly dragged him out of the jail and paraded the deceased again to the City Tower. During this long journey of Kms the deceased/accused was stripped-off his cloths and mercilessly beaten by the crowd.

As a result of random thrashing Sarif Khan died half way.

Despite that, the deceased was dragged by the crowd in dead condition and, finally, hanged him in the city tower in presence of large number of police and para-military forces. At the fact end of the episode police personnel resorted to blank firing to retrieve the dead body, which was retaliated by the crowd. In the counter firing one person of the violent crowd, namely Inito Chishi also lost his life. Besides casualty of two persons in the incident two NSA detainees also escaped from the jail.

3. The incident of jail breaking and killing of an Under Investigation Prisoner (UIP) by a crowd, despite there being a prohibitory order issued by the district magistrate U/S 144 of the code of criminal procedure, 1973, drew attention of national and international community.

Killing of an UIP after snatching him from the lawful custody was condemned by all law abiding citizens across the state and the country irrespective of caste, creed and religion.

4. The state Nagaland also treated the incident as a heinous and serious crime and promptly ordered a judicial inquiry. Initially one man JIC was ordered vide notification No CON-6/ LOR-11/2006 (Vol-1) Dated 06.03.2015 to be headed by Veprasa Nyekha, Retd district and sessions judge. Subsequently, vide notification No. CON/ OMJI/20/2015 Dated Kohima the May 16, 2015 Justice (Retd) B.D.Agarwal, former judge of Guahati high court, was appointed as the chairman and Veprasa Nyekha as the member of the JIC. The inquiry commission was constituted with the following terms of reference: (1) The causes and circumstances leading to the incident.

(2) The person or group of persons responsible for the incident, including those who incited, encouraged or guided the crowd in committing the crime.

(3) Whether there were any lapses or dereliction of duty on the part of any official or public authority for the maintenance of law and order.

(4) Whether the incident could have been avoided, and (5) How such incidents may be avoided in future.

4.1 On the suggestion of the commission the Government of Nagaland diluted reference No (II) vide their letter No CON/OMJI/20/2015 Dated Kohima July 13, 2015 the government informed the commission that it is not necessary to ascertain the names of culprits as this aspect will be examined by the investigation agency (CBI). The government informed the commission that it should mostly confine to the issue of dereliction of duty by the government officials and not to find out the culprits, which task is assigned to the CBI. 5. On the request of the commission 9 nos of written statements have been submitted by the individuals, school authorities, students’ organizations etc. on the other hand, 38

nos of written statements have been filed by the government officers. Though the government declined to appoint lawyers to assist the commission 30 witnesses were cross-examined by the chairman and member themselves to obtain certain clarifications. The chairman and member of the JIC has also visited central jail campus to make and on the spot survey as to how the incident took place and also to ascertain the location of UIP Sarif Khan.

After going through the entire materials placed before the commission we are recording our conclusion on the terms of references as below.

Recommendations Under this reference No (iv) & (v) the commission is expected to give suggestions to the government as to how such incidents may be avoided in future and how the incident that took place on March 5 could have been averted. In the previous paragraph we have already summarized the lapses of executive and police officers. If the lapses and faults of officers found by the commission would have been taken care of by the concerned authorities earlier the jail breaking incident would not have occurred. To prevent recurrence of similar incident in future we put forward few suggestions to the government, which are albeit not exhaustive.

For this purpose we have segregated our recommendations in different categories, which are given below.

Prison security The physical structure of a prison should be very sound to keep the society out and to keep the inmates safe inside.

Physical design and quality construction of a prison is as important as maintaining law and order inside the prison with the help of trained and skilled staff. The incident of central jail breaking that took place on March 5, 2015 demonstrates gross deficiencies both in the infrastructure and skilled manpower. The commission intends to put forward the following suggestions to prevent any such incident in future in any jail in the state.

Infrastructure (i) On March 5, 2015 a mob of

few thousand youngsters were able to make forcible entry deep inside the jail premises though the protestors were not seen carrying instruments to pull down the walls and gates. This fact amply proves that the construction quality of walls and gates was very weak.

Though the deceased Sarif Khan was shifted to a solitary consignment cell he was easily detected and dragged out by the mob. Hence, it is recommended that the prison department and other important prisoners can be put in “safe cells”, where an outsider and even jail staff cannot reach easily. Besides this, the concerned department should also formulate and lay down official specification of the prison construction to prevent breaking of walls, gates, locks etc manually. In other words, the prison should be made of good quality materials and standard workmanship. (ii) C C T V C a m e r a s : Though it is difficult to predict when and what incident may take place and in what form in future installation of CCTV cameras at strategic positions with 360 degree viewing angle will help to detect and identify the culprits and also to know to modus-operandi of the criminals. (iii) Security alarms: it is very common halls, high rise building and big installations to install security alarms at strategic points to alert the security staff and all persons to prevent any untoward incident.

Hence, it is suggested that both switch and trip wire operated security alarms should be installed inside the prison campus at suitable locations. (iv) Metal detectors etc: it is seen that some prisoners are able to get access of arms and weapons inside the jail campus occasionally. It is also not uncommon that such criminals either cause physical harm to the co-inmates and sometime they also assault jail staff with the use of various kinds of weapons, illegally procured inside jail, either to flee away from the jail or for other reasons. It has also been noticed that jail inmates very frequently import narcotic drugs and mobile phones in-

side the jail campus through visitors and also with the help of jail staff. Hence, providing metal detectors and other high tech equipments for frisking of visitors and jail staff are also necessary. Installation of high capacity signal jammers would also go a long way to prevent misuse of illegally procured cell phones by the prisoners. (v) Monitoring room: We have already recommended installation of high-tech equipment and gadgets in the jail campus. However, without a fully equipped monitoring room it may be possible to keep constant watch on the activities of the prisoners. A centralized monitoring room would not

only help the jail authorities to monitor the movement of the prisoners but it will also help them to supervise the activities of their own staff inside the jail campus and upon the visitors.

Hence, it is recommended that a “monitoring room”, fully equipped with state of art and technology should be established in each prison.

Such monitoring rooms should be manned by trained persons with walkie-talkies of high frequency.

Dumps in my backyard!

Sir,

How would you like to imagine a situation where you have to take your breakfast, lunch, and dinner (and basically everything you eat) in the company of a few hundreds of flies, buzzing around your food. Sometimes landing right on it!!

Or to wake up in the morning, smothered by a cloud of toxic smokes emitted from burning of mountains of garbage (let’s not forget, burning can also happen anytime; day, night, midnight!!!)

Or to get an onslaught of horribly foul smell of what closely resembles a rotten onion. Everyday. On a very good day, there’s only the rotten onion and the flies. No smokes.

These are common problems (to name a few) faced by residents living in the vicinity of the landfill site.

Now, everyone (or at least the Burma camp residents, United north block especially) knows that the issue of waste dumping has been going on for quite a long time. Our respected leaders of the area, headed by a joint committee, have asked the DMC to stop further garbage disposal as human population has vastly increased since the recent years and also due to numerous health hazards. To cut the story short, DMC asks for extension period (to look for alternative site in the meanwhile). Health hazards and public agitations notwithstanding, extension was unfortunately granted time and again. However as agreed, extension period comes to an end on the 7th of June.

As per recent developments and talks with our area leaders, the residents have hopes now that the joint committee along with the chairmen, GBs, and other stakeholders, would do the needful for the people. We, have hopes still, that DMC would understand the plight of the people as well. Because just as everybody else, we the people living in this vicinity has every right to clean air, clean water, and clean soil.

Mumbai, Jun 3 (PTI): Paring its early sharp gains, the rupee ended marginally higher by 4 paise at 67.25 against the US dollar in a highly volatile trade amid buoyant overseas sentiment. Sustained dollar selling by exporters and suspected RBI intervention through stateowned banks largely helped the home currency to settle higher for the second straight day.

Robust capital inflows into equities and debts also aided sentiment for the local unit. Dealers avoided taking long positions ahead of RBI’s bi-monthly monetary policy meet due on Tuesday, a forex trader said. The domestic unit resumed firmly higher at 67.23 a dollar against last closing level of 67.29 at the Interbank Foreign Exchange (Forex) market owing to consistent selling

New Delhi, Jun 3 (Agencies): Global oil majors including Saudi Aramco and Total plan to tap the retail fuel market in India, its oil minister said on Friday, reflecting the expanding role of the world’s fastest-growing large economy on the global crude landscape.

India’s fuel markets could be a lucrative prize for the world’s oil majors as they seek outlets for their gasoline and diesel.

India posted the fastest oil demand growth in the world in the first quarter of 2016 and is replacing China as the driver of growth globally, the International Energy Agency said in its latest report.

“Saudi Aramco is eager to enter in Indian market, we are finding ways to help them,” Oil Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said in Hindi in a live telecast on a government website.

India, the world’s fourthbiggest oil consumer, recently offered Saudi Aramco a stake in refineries and petrochemi-

cal projects.

Saudi Aramco wants to expand globally and is looking at potential joint ventures in several countries, including Indonesia, India, the United States, Vietnam and China, chief executive Amin Nasser told Reuters in an interview in May. Fuel marketing in India has turned profitable after the government ended decades-old control over the retail prices of gasoline and diesel.

Pradhan said local private oil refiners Reliance Industries and Essar Oil have started opening their mothballed fuel stations and are adding new ones to expand business.

French major Total and European major Royal Dutch Shell that have a limited presence in India are also keen to strengthen their presence in the fuel retailing business, Pradhan said.

“Shell officials recently met me and informed about their plan to expand the retail network in a big way in southern India,” he said.

He said his ministry has agreed to grant a licence to BP to market jet fuel in India.

“There is a possibility they (BP) may expand into the Indian retail sector,” he said in Hindi.

Essar Oil is still working to complete a deal to a sell a 49% stake in its 400,000 barrel per day Vadinar refinery in western Gujarat state to Russian giant Rosneft .

“Rosneft, rich with oil and gas wants to join Indian markets,” Pradhan said.

Trump bags endorsement of House Speaker Ryan

Washington, Jun 3 (PTI): In a major boost to Republican party unity ahead of the November polls, House Speaker Paul Ryan has endorsed presumptive nominee Donald Trump, saying that they have “more common ground than disagreement”.

“I feel confident he would help us turn the ideas in this agenda into laws to help improve peoples’ lives.

That’s why I’ll be voting for him this fall,” Ryan said in an op-ed published in Gazette Xtra.

Ryan, citing “major policy differences”, had refused to endorse Trump after he emerged as the presumptive presidential nominee following his win in the Indiana primary elections in May. Thereafter, the two had a series of meetings and phone calls.

The Speaker has now insisted that despite differences between the two men, they

have more common ground than divergence.

“It’s no secret that he and I have our differences. I won’t pretend otherwise. And when I feel the need to, I’ll continue to speak my mind.

But the reality is, on the issues that make up our agenda, we have more common ground than disagreement,” he said.

“I’ll be voting for @ realDonaldTrump this fall.

I’m confident he will help turn the House GOP’s agenda into laws,” he tweeted.

His goal from the start, Ryan said, was to unite the Republican party so they could win in the fall.

“And if we’re going to unite, it has to be over ideas.

Donald Trump and I have talked at great length about things such as the proper role of the executive and fundamental principles such as the protection of life,” he said “The list of potential Supreme Court nominees he released

104 migrant bodies washed up on Libyan beach: Navy Tripoli, Jun 3 (AFP): The bodies of at least 104 migrants have washed up on a beach in the western Libyan town of Zwara, the navy said today, warning however that the toll could rise.

“The number of bodies retrieved last evening was 104 but the toll is expected to rise since an average boat carries 115-125 passengers,” Libyan navy spokesman Colonel Ayoub Qassem said.

People smugglers have exploited the chaos gripping Libya since the 2011 uprising that overthrew dictator Moamer Kadhafi to traffic migrants across the Mediterranean Sea to Europe.

It is a lucrative business for the smugglers who cram migrants into boats that are small and unsafe for the perilous journey to Italy just 300 kilometres from Libya’s shores.

Thousands of migrants try each year to make the crossing, but many drown when their boats founder.

Qassem said that migrant boats leaving from western Libya usually set off from the port cities of Sabratha and Zwara, with passengers who are mostly African or Arabs from Morocco.

The identities of the bodies found yesterday were not yet known. Some 204,000 migrants and refugees have crossed the Mediterranean to Europe since January, the United Nations refugee agency said on Tuesday.

after our first meeting was very encouraging,” he said.

He also said he would start introducing a series of policy proposals that address the American peoples’ top priorities, starting next week.

“To enact these ideas, we need a Republican president willing to sign them into law.

That’s why, when he sealed the nomination, I could not offer my support for Donald Trump before discussing policies and basic principles,” he wrote.

Trump welcomed the endorsement that he had been awaiting for weeks now.

“So great to have the endorsement and support of Paul Ryan. We will both be working very hard to Make America Great Again!” he tweeted.

The two had met face-toface for the first time in May, where they vowed to unite the party to ensure victory in the November polls.

Paris museums shut as swollen Seine reaches peak Paris, Jun 3 (AFP): Paris’ world-famous Louvre and Musee d’Orsay museums shut today to rush valuable artworks out of their basements, as the rain-swollen River Seine reached its highest level in three decades.

At least 14 people have been killed in floods that have wrought havoc in Europe after days of torrential rain, trapping people in their homes and forcing rescuers to row lifeboats down streets turned into rivers.

Parisians were urged to stay away from the Seine, which has spilled its banks in places and was expected to reach a peak of six metres today.

A man on horseback died yesterday after he was swept away by a swollen river in Evry-Gregy-sur-Yerre, southeast of Paris.

Ten people have been killed in Germany and two in Romania, while a bee-keeper died in Belgium while trying to protect his hives from the floods, local authorities in the

Nassogne region said.

French Environment Minister Segolene Royal said she feared more bodies would be found as waters recede in villages in central France, some of which have suffered their worst floods in a century.

In Paris, officials have erected emergency flood barriers along the Seine, whose banks are home to both the Louvre -- the world’s most visited museum, with attractions including the Mona Lisa -- and the Musee d’Orsay.

The riverbanks are normally thronging with tourists in what is supposed to be the start of summer, but visitors were walking away disappointed.

“We were going to go the Louvre today, and we were going to go on the boat cruise for dinner tonight -- and they were both cancelled,” said American tourist Elle Yarborough, an English teacher from Boston.

India, Tunisia vow to combat terror Tunis, Jun 3 (PTI): India and Tunisia have decided to enhance cooperation in combating terrorism with Vice President Hamid Ansari saying successfully dealing with such threats requires strong collaboration among “like-minded partners”.

India and Tunisia also signed two MoUs on promotion of handicrafts and IT and digital economy after Vice President Ansari met Tunisian Prime Minister Habib Essid and discussed a range of issues of mutual and regional interests. The two sides discussed the issue of spreading tide of extremism and terrorism which is a threat both countries face, Ansari said at a joint press conference with Tunisia Prime Minister Essid.

“Successfully dealing with such threats requires strong cooperation among like-minded partners,” he said yesterday.

“We have discussed the issues related to combating this challenge and decided to enhance our cooperation in the field of counter-terrorism,” Ansari said. Two MoUs -- one on

ing in our institutions in different streams as our guests”.

The two sides will promote each other’s traditional handicraft and increase mutual cooperation in the IT and related sectors, including digital economy, he said. Ansari said their discussion on bilateral relations focussed on ongoing economic partnership and on incorporating newer areas of collaboration like information technology and education.

Melbourne, Jun 3 (PTI): From well known spa centres to cafeterias across Australia, the unique Indian chai culture is gradually picking up through an innovative business venture launched here by a young India-born lawyer cum entrepreneur. Uppma Virdi who runs her business under the name ‘Chai Walli’, name used for a female chai vendor in India, said her authentic tea products from India were gaining popularity in Australia with her client lists of over 80 outlets so far which is increasing everyday. Virdi was recently invited to host a workshop at the inaugural Tea festival of Melbourne last week where she explained the participants how tea in India has its own process of being made and that there was an art involved in its making.

“My aim is to make Australians aware how Indian Chai culture is different to rest of the world and there are different ways we brew chai back home with so many flavours like cardamom, cloves and ayurvedic ingredients,” Virdi said adding that Indians drink more chai than water. Virdi, born in Chandigarh said her tea selling skills come from her grandfather who was a natural medicine doctor with a background in Ayurveda. “I learned from him how to balance spices, how to have spices seasonally like I sell chai for summer which has different spices as compared to chai for winters,” she said.

Saturday Night Street Pop Up sale begins Show at Kohima tonight A

shopping extravaganza for fashionistas called the Pop Up Show got underway today at The Garden in Supermarket Dimapur with hundreds of happy shoppers visiting the event on the first day. Presented by two young Naga entrepreneurs, collectively called “BenYana”, the twoday event offers a wide range of the season’s trendiest tops, dressed, jumpsuits, kurtis, bags and much more at affordable prices. The show would end June 4.

Registration for VoN S-3 underway

Doctor Who: Role was offered to black actor, says Steven Moffat

T

Members of DK’s Entertainment Group.

S

trongly focused at bringing around changes, Deser t King (DK)’s Entertainment Group has organized a Saturday Night Street Show under the aegis ‘Peace & Harmony through Music’.

The kick off show will be held on June 4, 5:00 p.m. at New Secretariat junction

followed by June 11 at Old NST junction¬¬¬, July 2 at High School Junction and July 9 at Old MLA junction, Kohima.

The organizers said the programme aims at bringing peace and happiness in the minds and hearts of the people through music and other music related activities.

Axl Rose Won’t Sign Autographs Anymore

A

xl Rose isn’t signing stuff anymore, and fans can blame those who sell Rose-penned merchandise on auction sites like eBay. The singer, now on tour with AC/DC, made his intentions known, if not exactly clear, in a new tweet.

“Can’t take da ebayers so un42nutzly I’s won’tz b signing things 4 awhile,” he wrote, before adding: “Much Love 2 the real.”

The decision comes after a period of uncommon interaction between the usually shy Guns N’ Roses co-founder and AC/DC fans during the group’s summer tour of Europe. Rose took over for Brian Johnson,

after the longtime AC/DC singer was sidelined with a serious hearing issue.

In the meantime, selling autographs has become a big business. Dealer Steve Woolf, in a talk with ABC News, estimated that it’s now a “$50 million a year industry,” with some collectors earning “six-figure salaries.” Mick Jagger, for instance, can net a seller as much as $2,500 – because he rarely signs, “unless you’re a female and have good looks,” Autograph Pros founder Michael Kasmar noted last year.

A backlash now appears to be building. Rose joins a group of others — including Kid Rock, Ted Nugent and Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme — who’ve grown weary of being hounded by people simply looking to cash in. “I got jumped by Kid Rock and seven of his security guys,” Hollywood collector Mike Medlin told LA Weekly.

“I got my ass kicked.”

The shows which will be free viewing has been undertaken for a social cause.

The organizers have invited musicians (any) to join them if they intend to bring changes to the society through music. Programme coordinator can be contacted at +91 8014-67-9413 (Watsapp) or +91 7085-93-8032 (calls).

he role of Doctor Who was previously offered to a black actor, executive producer Steven Moffat has revealed. But he told the show’s official magazine that “for various reasons, it didn’t work out”.

Moffat said the show had “no excuse” not to feature a more diverse cast, adding it would be “amazing” for it to have two non-white lead actors.

Pearl Mackie, whose father is from the West Indies, was recently cast as the Doctor’s companion.

“We decided that the new companion was going to be non-white, and that was an absolute decision, because we need to do better on that. We just have to,” Moffat said.

“I don’t mean that we’ve done terribly - our guest casts are among the most diverse on television - but I feel as though I could have done better overall.”

Moffat did not reveal name of the actor who had been ap-

proached to play the Doctor.

Prior to the casting of Peter Capaldi in 2013, there had been calls for a black actor to take on the role.

Earlier this year, Undercover became the first BBC One drama to feature two non-white actors, with Adrian Lester and Sophie Okonedo in the leading roles.

Moffat, who is also Doctor Who’s lead writer, said he would be keen for his show to do the same thing. “Two nonwhite leads would be amazing.

In fact, a lot of people would barely notice,” he said.

“I certainly don’t think there’s ever been a problem with making the Doctor black, which is why it should happen one day.

“Sometimes the nature of a particular show - historical dramas, for instance - makes diversity more of a challenge, but Doctor Who has absolutely nowhere to hide on this,” he said.

Chunky was Akshay’s acting instructor?

S

uperstar Akshay Kumar says that his “Housefull” co-star Chunky Pandey used to be his instructor in an acting school almost three decades ago, when Akshay used to be a huge fan of Chunky and would look up to him.

“The place where Chunky Pandey sahab used to learn acting, he used to be my senior there. When I used to go there as a junior, we used to look up to him and we used to wait for the moment when he would come.

His film ‘Aag Hi Aag’ (1987) had released, which was a super duper hit. I used to be a huge fan of Chunky Pandey,” Akshay said at a promotional event for their film.

When their co-star Abhishek Bachchan pointed out that Akshay said “used to be a huge fan”, Akshay quipped: “After that he lost the plot.”

As Chunky recalled that he “used to be his (Akshay’s) instructor in an acting school”

one of the most popular lines in the “Housefull” franchise, Chunky revealed that he would often say that to his wife and she would respond by slapping him.

Chunky featured in popular films such as “Tezaab” in the 1980s, “Aankhen” in the 1990s and has continued acting till now. About maintaining his fitness and looking the ‘same’ over almost three decades, he said: “Being happy and doing comedy films keeps you young forever I think. And I swim 2 kilometers every day.”

and Akshay quipped: “See my initial 50-60 films and see how I have shone in them.”

About his experience on the franchise, Chunky said: “It’s just gone better and better all the time. For the first, Akshay has a lot of contribution to it, with lot of dialogues that we improvised on set and made it there.

“I think in every ‘Housefull’, we keep making most dialogues on set. I think it’s been a lot of fun. I hope we make ‘Housefull 50’ also one day.”

The pair’s break-up was initially reported by E! News yesterday (June 2) with quotes from several difference “sources” close to the pair.

“This all happened last week,” one source is quoted to have said. “Taylor and Adam had no big blowout fight, but the romance just was not there any more for them. Adam is the one that ended it. It was all done in a very mature fashion.

Taylor is pretty upset but they are still in communication. Taylor was there for Adam with his

LOS ANGELES, Jun 3 (Agencies): Usain Bolt’s 2008 Olympics 4x100 meters relay gold medal could be in jeopardy after team-mate Nesta Carter was identified as one of 32 athletes who failed a retrospective drugs test, the Jamaica Gleaner reported on Friday. The Gleaner said a retest of Carter’s ‘A’ sample from the Beijing Games had found traces of the banned stimulant Methylexaneamine.

The result of retests of Carter’s ‘B’ sample was not yet known, the Gleaner said citing “well-placed sources”.

Carter, 30, ran the first leg for Jamaica’s 4x100m relay team in Beijing, which also in-

cluded Michael Frater, Asafa Powell and superstar Bolt.

The team took gold in what was then a new world record of 37.10 seconds, ahead of Trinidad and Tobago and Japan. Carter was also a member of Jamaica’s gold medalwinning relay teams at the 2011, 2013 and 2015 World Championships as well as the 2012 Olympic Games.

If Carter is subjected to doping sanctions, it could mean Bolt stands to lose his relay gold. In previous doping cases where individual members of a medal-winning relay squad have tested positive, the whole team is stripped of their medal.

“Nick is a passionate competitor and he’s working hard to learn and mature in a highly pressurised environment where he is under constant public scrutiny.”

“As we’ve said recently Nick’s performances this year have improved. His growing maturity is reflected in his on court performance.”

the third quarter.

Livingston, who scored a playoff career-high 20 points, Iguodala (12) and Barbosa (11) picked up the slack for the defending champions, however, with the Warriors bench outscoring their Cleveland counterparts 45-10.

Rome, Jun 3 (Agencies): Justin Gatlin continued his preparations for the upcoming Olympic Games with a record fifth win at the Rome Diamond League meet on Thursday.

The 34 year-old American recorded a season’s best time of 9.93 seconds to take victory in the 100m from lane three, ahead of compatriot Ameer Webb.

Webb, who had earlier won the meet’s 200m event in 20.04 seconds, finished one hundredth of a second behind Gatlin in a new personal best time.

“I felt Ameer out there that’s what I’ve been training for this season. Last year you saw in Beijing the presence of Usain and I lost my form,” Gatlin said, referring to last year’s world championships where he finished one hundredth of a second behind Usain Bolt.

Gatlin overtakes compatriot Maurice Greene for the number of victories at the Rome Golden Gala.

The controversial American sprinter, who has served two separate bans for doping offences, is expected to challenge defending champion Bolt for gold at this summer’s games in Rio de Janeiro.

‘I missed some shots and didn’t get a rhythm, but the way that they defended, we’ll be able to find some adjustments for Game Two. Not worried about that,’ said Curry, who settled for 11 points, two more than his backcourt team mate, Thompson.

In a rematch of last year’s championship series, won by the Warriors in six games, LeBron James and the Cavaliers had taken the lead for the first time since the opening minute with a surge midway through

care of the ball we’re going to have somebody score enough points, whether it’s the starters or the bench. I thought we played great defense. We had nine turnovers total and that allowed us to control the game, and our bench obviously gave us a huge lift.’

Livingston has played for nine different teams in his 14-year career but has found a home with the Warriors in the last two seasons.

‘Steph and Klay, they’re our guys,’ said the 30-yearold, whose team have now won four straight games since falling behind 3-1 to the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference final series.

‘I think the series with (Oklahoma City) really prepared us for this series. It can be anybody on any given night. We just have to stay ready.’

As well as a standout performance on offense, Iguodala helped limit James to 23 points and made the most of his knack of stripping opponents of the ball when in close.

‘He’s great at doing that, for sure,’ James said. ‘Just got to do a better job protecting the ball. It’s that simple.’

Game Two is in Oakland on Sunday.

Murray, Djokovic in French Open final NAC open supercross concludes Serena to face Muguruza

(L-R) Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic celebrate after winning their respective French Open semi-final match on Friday.

Paris, Jun 3 (Agencies): Andy Murray powered into a 10th career Grand Slam final and a first at the French Open with a brilliant four-set win over defending champion Stan Wawrinka.

The world number two has moved through the gears in Paris after a couple of early five-set marathons, but he continued his fine form by ending Wawrinka’s hopes of repeating his 2015 success in the French capital.

Murray will face Novak Djokovic in Sunday’s final.

Wawrinka had been in inspired form and came into the match on the back of a 12match winning streak at the French Open and had an early chance to break Murray in the Scot’s opening service game, but after an epic battle Murray

held before breaking the Swiss in the third game.

Murray went on to close out the first set 6-4 before an inspired second set gave him a 2-0 lead in the match.

Wawrinka improved in the third set and struck in the 10th game for the only break to take the match into a fourth set.

But Murray started in ruthless fashion, breaking his opponent in the opening game before going on to close out the set with a dominant performance on his own serve to become Britain’s first French Open finalist in 79 years and set up yet another final date with Djokovic.

Earlier, Novak Djokovic moved into his fourth final with a 6-2 6-1 6-4 win over Dominic Thiem to maintain his quest for a maiden Roland Garros crown.

Djokovic never looked in any trouble from the outset, breaking an overawed Thiem at the first time of asking before taking the opening set 6-2. It was more of the same in the second as Djokovic broke twice to claim a two-set advantage with a dominant 6-1 success.

But Thiem, competing in his first Grand Slam semi-final, roared back at the start of the third to break Djokovic and take a 3-0 lead but the Serb was not to be denied, reeling off five games in succession before Thiem stopped the rot.

But Djokovic is a man on a mission as he looks to complete a career Grand Slam as well as matching the great Laver and he served out the match for a routine straight sets triumph and a place in Sunday’s final.

Nita Ambani nominated for International Olympic Committee Mumbai, Jun 3 (IANS): Nita Ambani, founder-chairperson of Reliance Foundation, has been nominated as an independent candidate to be a member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) based out of Lausanne in Switzerland, it was announced on Friday.

The election for membership, which officials say is a mere formality, is scheduled at the 129th IOC Session at Rio de Janeiro between Aug 2 and Aug 4. As per the new selection process, Ambani, when elected, will continue to serve as a member of the IOC until she reaches 70 years of age.

IOC President Thomas Bach, announcing the eight candidates at a press conference in Lausanne, said: “This is a very outstanding group of personalities that are experts in their respective fields.”

The list also includes Anant Singh of South Africa, a film producer who was raised in the country’s apartheid era and wrote a book on late President Nelson Mandela -- “Long Walk to

Nita Ambani

Freedom”. He also produced “Yesterday” that was South Africa’s first Oscar nominated movie.

Among Indians, Ambani will be the first woman and the third individual to become a member of the IOC after the late Sir Dorabji Tata and Raja Randhir Singh, who is currently an honorary member of the IOC. “It is truly an honour and a privilege to be nominated by IOC. I believe in the power of sport to shape our youth, to bring together communities and bridge gaps between cultures and generations,” said the 52-year-old social entrepreneur.

“I am grateful to IOC for this opportunity, it’s a recognition of India and Indian women. I am looking forward to the opportunity to contribute in meeting the goals of IOC,” she said in a statement.

Ambani spearheads all of Reliance Industries’ initiatives in sports, notably cricket, football, basketball, kabaddi, tennis and golf, either through the company, the foundation or its joint ventures.

Sports is also an important component at the 13 schools overseen by her -- which educate more than 15,000 students -- and at the Dhirubhai Ambani International School and the Reliance Foundation, company officials said.

“Her grassroots programmes have reached out to over 3 million children.”

While she will represent the IOC and Olympic Movement in India, she is not a delegate of the Indian Olympic Association, which selects athletes to represent the country at the Olympic Games, Asian Games and other global athletic meets.

Serena Williams is into the French Open final after a hard-fought 7-5 6-4 win against Kiki Bertens.

The defending champion will play world No 4 Garbine Muguruza in the Roland Garros finale after the Spaniard defeated Samantha Stosur 6-2 6-4 in the other semi-final.

Williams was never at her best throughout her semi-final and frequently looked on the verge of an upset defeat to the world No 58 Bertens, but came on strong towards the conclusion of both sets.

Three-time French Open winner Williams arrived amid rumours of an abductor injury and, sure enough, she started slowly and was broken in the very first game.

She struggled with her mobility through the first set, but Bertens could never extend her lead, and eventually paid a heavy price after failing to make her serve count.

Facing the serve at 4-5 down, Williams struck a magnificent drop-shot to bring up break point which she duly converted. Having forced the tie-break, Williams then overcame a terrible miss at the net to narrowly edge one set ahead.

It still would not be plain sailing as Bertens again broke at the first attempt, only to concede a break straight back.

The young Dutch player always seemed to be playing crisper tennis but never had the vigour to keep Williams at bay and the American duly broke to go 4-3 ahead.

She missed three match points against the serve before completing the job with her own service game.

Saina bows out of Indonesia Open Jakarta, Jun 3 (PTI): Olympic-bound ace Indian shuttler Saina Nehwal was disposed off by World No. 1 Carolina Marin of Spain in the quarterfinals of the $900,000 Indonesia Super Series Premier in Jakarta on Friday.

London Olympic bronze medallist, Saina, who has won the Indonesia title three times in the past, failed to breach the defence of Carolina and lost 22-24 11-21 to the All England and World Champion after a 47-minute battle in women’s singles competition. Eight seed Saina had lagged behind 7-13 in the opening game at one stage but the Indian showed tremendous grit to fight back and grab the lead 16-14 and then 19-16, only to let the advantage slip as the Spaniard earned the bragging rights.

In the second game, Saina was no where as the top seed dominated right from the start and kept distancing herself from the Indian to comfortably shut the door on the 25-year-old from Hyderabad.
