NTC drew the attention of the government of India to the prevailing environment as the bane for Nagas who are suffering in misery do to the inordinate delay of political solution. It mentioned that the Parliamentary Standing Committee report tabled in both houses of parliament on July 19,2018 had strongly recommended that the gov ernment of India “should conclude the peace talks at the earliest, based on a broad based understanding over the most contentious issues”. NTC expressed regrets that even during the last five years, the Naga political is sue had not been discussed in parliament and even Na galand MPs and members of the state assembly took “little interest to pursue the long cherished solution to the Naga political issue.” NTC asked what was causing stagnation and backwardness of Nagaland despite colossal funds being provided by the government of India ? According to NTC, during the past 25 years of political negotiations, “un scrupulous elements” from within the state government and armed elements have reduced Nagaland as “their private goldmines” by taking undue advantage of the gull ibility of the Naga public.

DIMAPUR, AUG 29 (NPN): Central Nagaland Tribes Council (CNTC) the forum of Ao, Sumi and Lotha tribes and Nagaland Tribes Council (NTC) have sought urgent attention for early solution to the Naga political issue in view of prevailing situation in the state.In a separate release, CNTC media cell said it expects the government of India to appreciate the pa tience shown by people of Nagaland for ‘Solution Be fore Election’ for 25 years and their yearning for genu ine peace through political solution.CNTC recalled that in the 2018 assembly elec tion, when all civil soci eties and political parties including BJP, “unequivo cally demanded solution before election”, the “BJP breached the trust” when its candidates filed nomi nations under the plea “ Election For Solution.” It said the breach of trust was against the wishes and will of the people and “is still fresh in our CNTCmemory.”reminded the government of India that “unending political process has adversely affected the lives of every individual in the state and has taken a huge toll of the entire system of governance”. It main tained that the uncertainty also “heralded an unimagi nable cycle of corruption at all levels” that had left education and overall in frastructural development in shambles, when funds were brazenly siphoned off from government projects through “percentage cuts and shares” while private businesses were “grossly extorted by armed groups in the name of political issue.” CNTC said the ulti mate victims of these were the unemployed youth and students, whose futures have been ruined due to the unre solved Naga issue. CNTC appealed to the prime minister to address contentious issues between negotiating parties at the earliest since economic well being of every Naga family has completely collapsed due to the absence of “eq uitable welfare formula and governance”. NTC: Meanwhile, media cell of Nagaland Tribes Council (NTC) said it was perturbed by the “thick cloud of uncertainties being cast over the fate of the po litical negotiations” between the government of India and two political groups- NSCN (I-M) and the WC of the 7-member NNPGs despite 25 years of peace process.

GUWAHATI, AUG 29 (PTI): Assam Chief Min ister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday proposed five national capitals, one for each zone, to end regional disparity in the country. The senior BJP leader, in a series of tweets, contin ued his tirade against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Ke jriwal, with whom he has been engaged in a war of words on “HavingTwitter.been engaged in a dialogue with Delhi CM Shri @ArvindKejri wal, who’s by now in habit of mocking at other states, I’m of the view that we should work on curing the disease of disparity, and not mock poor states. Can we have 5 Capitals of India, one in every zone?” Sarma tweeted.“This will ensure, govts like Delhi do not have huge wealth at their disposal vis a vis North East and states from East. And of course what we’ve been doing in health, edu cation, communication with blessings of our PM Shri @narendramodi Ji was unheard of in last 75 years,” he said in another Twitter post. He claimed the pro cess of “mainstreaming” of Northeast began in 2014 and the region has been progressing at an unrelent ing pace since then. “Finally, after seven decades of denial & neg ligence, process of main streaming of the North East started in 2014 by Hon PM, and the pace of progress is unrelenting. North East does not need sympathy & ridicule, we need what’s due to us - respect, resources and regeneration,” he tweeted. Sarma and Kejriwal have been engaged in a Twitter war since last week, which began when the Del hi CM criticised the Assam government’s decision to amalgamate schools which will lead to the closure of several educational institu tions.The Assam CM re taliated saying Kejriwal, as usual, commented without doing his homework and that he was ignorant about the good work done by the Assam government since Sarma was the state educa tion minister.TheAAP leader replied by saying he would like to visit Assam to see for him self the “good work” done by the state government, to which Sarma mockingly said that an “invitation” has already been sent to Delhi’s Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, referring to a summons issued to him by a local court over a defamation case filed by Sarma.

NEW DELHI, AUG 29 (PTI): A new mechanism for the listing of matters will be devised soon, Chief Justice of India U U Lalit said on Monday, his first working day in the Supreme Court as the CJI.He asked lawyers to mention cases for urgent hearings before the registrar rather than requesting the first court to entertain such pleas.“We will have a new mechanism by Thursday. Till then, we will look at it in chamber and if urgent we will list it… For mentioning, we will go back to the original practice of mentioning before the registrar,” the CJI said. The observation came after Solicitor General Tushar Mehta sought to know about the mechanism of mentioning the matters before the bench. As the bench headed by the chief justice of India commenced proceedings for the day, Mehta welcomed CJI Lalit and assured him of full support from the government. Senior advocate Dushyant Dave also wished the CJI on behalf of the entireOverbar. 900 petitions, including 60 PILs, were listed before the top court on Monday along with pleas against the Karnataka High Court verdict that wearing hijab by women doesn’t form an essential part of religious practice in Islam. CJI Lalit, who was holding the bench along with Justice S Ravindra Bhat, heard 62 petitions out of which 10 were Public Interest Litigations.Justice Uday Umesh Lalit, the senior-most judge in the Supreme Court, was sworn in as the 49th Chief Justice of India (CJI) on Saturday.AsCJI, Justice Lalit will have a short tenure of 74 days and demit office on November 8 on attaining the age of 65 years. Justice D Y Chandrachud, the seniormost judge after Justice Lalit, is next in line to be the country’s top judge. Justice S M Sikri, who became the 13th CJI in January 1971, was the first lawyer to be elevated directly to the top court in March 1964.Justice Lalit, who was a senior advocate before being appointed a judge of the apex court on August 13, 2014, has been part of several landmark verdicts including the one which held the practice of divorce through instant ‘triple talaq’ among Muslims illegal and unconstitutional.Hewasappointed a special public prosecutor for the CBI to conduct the trial in the 2G spectrum allocation case.Justice Lalit will be the sixth chief justice of India to have a tenure of less than 100 days. Justice Kamal Narain Singh, who was the CJI between November 25, 1991, and December 12, 1991, had a tenure of 18 days. While Justice S Rajendra Babu had a tenure of 30 days between May 2 and May 31, 2004, Justice J C Shah was the CJI for 36 days between December 17, 1970, and January 21, 1971. Justice G B Patnaik had a 41-day tenure from November 8 to December 18, 2002, and Justice L M Sharma had a tenure of 86 days between November 18, 1992, and February 11, 1993.
NEW DELHI, AUG 29 (PTI): In a fresh attack on the Congress, former leader Ghulam Nabi Azad Monday said the “ailing” party needs medicines which are being provided by compounders instead of doctors.Days after quitting the party, he claimed its foundation has turned very weak and the organisation can fall anytime but the Congress leadership doesn’t have the time to set things right.The former Congress leader also alleged that Rahul Gandhi does not have the aptitude or interest in politics.Speaking to reporters at his residence, Azad claimed that the leadership being projected in states is making party members leave instead of unitingAssertingthem. that he belonged to the Congress ideology and never wanted to quit the organisation with which he grew from his student days, Azad claimed that he was “forced out” of the party.He stressed that he will not join the BJP as it will not help his politics in Jammu and Kashmir. The former Congress leader said that he would soon set up a new party in Jammu and Kashmir as the assembly elections could be announced anytime. “I can only give my best wishes to the Congress, but it needs medicines more than my wishes. And, these medicines are being provided by compounders instead of doctors and there is a need for specialists,” Azad told reporters. “The leadership has no time for setting things right in the party. The Congress is providing such leaders in states and promoting those who are making people quit rather than uniting them with the party,” he alleged. The party’s foundation has turned very weak and the organisation can fall anytime, Azad claimed while citing it as a reason why he and some leaders quit the Congress now. “There are people who do clerical work in the Congress and do plants against leaders,” he said while attacking those who have attacked him in the organisation. “I have been forced to leave my home as we were not heard within.” Azad took a swipe at Rahul Gandhi, saying it was the former Congress chief who hugged Modi in Parliament and thus it was he who was “entangled” with the prime minister. “The BJP cannot help me in politics in Jammu and Kashmir. The BJP has a separate constituency. Those spreading such misinformation are playing into the BJP’s hands and this is Congress propaganda against me,” he claimed. On post-poll alliance, Azad said there are other parties also and the new organisation can align with themContinuingtoo. his attack on Rahul Gandhi, he said, “It seems he does not have the aptitude for politics. We tried to make him a leader and made many efforts in this regard.”Azadalso said he used to think Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a “crude man” as he had no children but he displayed humanity while recalling a terrorrelated incident during his speech in Rajya Sabha when he turnedRecallingemotional.Modi in tears in the Rajya Sabha during the former Congress MP’s farewell, he said the prime minister broke down on remembering the tragic incident and not for each other.But that speech during his retirement was given a different twist by some “illiterate” Congressmen, Azad claimed. “One should understand the context of Modi’s speech. He did not speak about me, he was talking about an incident.” Azad said Modi is merely an excuse and they were riling ever since he and 22 other Congressmen wrote to Sonia Gandhi in August 2020. After that letter, there have been many meetings and “we put forth our views before Sonia Gandhi but none of our suggestions was implemented”.Healsoquestioned the DNA of those who put question marks on him and accused those leaders in the Congress of conspiring and “planting news” against party leaders and thus weakening the organisation. Hitting back, the Congress accused Azad of indulging in “treachery” and said he was “diminishing himself”“Afterfurther.such a long career, courtesy entirely the party, he’s been tasked to slander by giving interviews indiscriminately. Mr Azad diminishes himself further”. “What’s he afraid of that he’s justifying his treachery every minute? He can be easily exposed but why stoop to his level,” Congress general Rameshcommunications,secretary,Jairamtweeted.
New mechanism for listing of matters in SC soon: CJI Lalit U U Lalit NOIDA, AUG 29 (PTI): Top officials along with the Noida police commissioner inspected the twin tower demolition site Monday as the issue of debris management remained a concern for them as well as residents of nearby societies. Edifice Engineering said it would take 90 days to clear the debris, estimated to be around 80,000 tonnes of concrete, steel and iron. A meeting with residents was held at the Emerald Court society in the afternoon by officials of Edifice Engineering, Jet Demolitions, Central Building Research Institute and the Noida Authority while Police Commissioner Alok Singh and Joint Commissioner Love Kumar were also Edificepresent.Engineering was hired for the demolition job and it had roped in South African firm Jet Demolitions as a collaborator. The CBRI was appointed as technical expert by the Supreme Court while real estate developer Supertech bore the cost and the Noida Authority oversaw the whole exercise. “The police commissioner has also inspected the site where the implosion was carried out yesterday. Residents are happy with the demolition. Now Edifice is looking after the debris management. They are now looking to carry out the secondary breaking of the debris before sending it for recycling,” Joe Brinkkman, the managing director of South African Jet Demolitions, told reporters after the meeting. He said the Mumbaibased Edifice Engineering looked at all best possible plans for debris management and also consulted Jet Demolitions, which has to its name, among other projects, the successful demolition of 108-metre-tall Bank of Lisbon building in Johannesburg, South Africa in November 2019. “Edifice has consulted debris management widely to look at all the best options first. The most important thing is that it (debris) does not go to waste, is recycled and reused,” Brinkkman said. “After the Bank of Lisbon building demolition, we had also done the same thing. We made sure that everything was recycled and reused and up to world standards,” said the Jet Demolitions MD, who was part of the seven-member detonation team for Noida twin towers demolition.
Mayur Mehta, project manager for Edifice Engineering, said the debris management plan has been submitted to the Noida Authority and accepted by them. “It would take 90 days to clear the debris from the site in a safe manner,” Mehta told poppingthetonnesoraroundpartnerEdificePTI.EngineeringUtkarshMehtasaid35,000cubicmetresapproximately80,000ofdebriswasleftinaftermathoftheeye-event.

Jay Shah refuses to hold national flag after Asia Cup match
Opposition leaders slam Jay Shah over tricolour video
NEW DELHI, AUG 29 (PTI): Video footage of BCCI secretary Jay Shah appearing to turn down an offer to wave the national flag after India beat Pakistan in a thrilling cricket match at the Asia Cup in Dubai on Sunday has sparked a controversy, with Opposition leaders taking a dig at him. Several Congress leaders shared the video footage on social media and slammed Shah, who is Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s son. Tagging the footage of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary appearing to turn down an offer to wave the flag, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh tweeted in Hindi: “I have papa, keep the tricolour with Congressyou.” leader Ajoy Kumar also tweeted the footage and wrote in Hindi: “Looks like the tricolour was of ‘Khadi’... not of ‘polyester’!”Congress’s Karnataka MLA Priyank Kharge asked why would Jay Shah refuse to wave the tricolour after India’s victory against Pakistan. “Any Indian would have done so reflexively. Did he want the Bhagwa Dhwaja or BJP flag?” he asked. The Congress has been strongly criticising an amendment of the flag code under which the national flag can now be made of polyester and with the help of machines.ShivSena’s Rajya Sabha MP Priyanka Chaturvedi said “staying neutral as ACC (Asian Cricket Council) president doesn’t at any point mean being disrespectful to any nation’s flag, especially your own....” In another tweet, Chaturvedi said the tricolour in hand is a symbol of the resolve and loyalty to the nation and to “dismiss” it in this way is an “insult” to the country’s 133 crore population.Tagging the video, Trinamool Congress (TMC) general secretary Abhishek Banerjee tweeted: “The prodigal prince knows not of national pride. Jay Shah not wanting to hold the national flag is symptomatic of the larger hypocrisy of the ruling dispensation. They indulge in theatrics, lack values. Excel in jumlas, lack patriotism.”Commenting on the video, TMC leader Derek O’Brien said: “Dear Amit Shah, please tell the nation whether this act infuriates you? Whether the act hurts your nationalistic sentiments? Or, will this act be forgiven only because he’s your son?”
What the demolition on Sunday, of the Twin towers of the firm Supertech at Noida, UP has proved is that the law can be applied only if there is a political will. The entire national media especially the electronic media, kept the nation glued to the demolition of the twin towers with some 3500 kgs of explosives. The demolition carried out by the reality firm as per the order of the Supreme Court lasted around nine seconds and ended a nine-year-long legal battle. Realty firm Supertech maintained that the twin towers were constructed as per the building plan approved by Noida development authorities and no deviations were made, the towers- Ceyane (29 floors) and Apex (32 floors) - were part of the Emerald Court project of Supertech Ltd and were found to be in vio lation of multiple regulations regarding construction. They were demolished via a ‘controlled implosion’ to ensure minimal damage to the surroundings.
NTC urges GoI to resolve Naga political issue at earliest a few thoughts on the way forward
Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.
The IntimacyUnsurpassedofTestedFaith
Power recharge woes of the common man T he NTC is badly perturbed by the thick cloud of un certainties being cast over the fate of the political negotiations between the GoI and the two groups of the Naga political negotia tors, namely, NSCN(IM) and the WC, 7 NNPGs despite the peace process being in its 25th year. As for the NSCN(IM), the cease fire was signed with the GoI in 1997 followed by the Framework Agree ment signed on August 3, 2015, it has been in its Silver Jubilee year as in 2022. And as for the WC, 7 NNPGs, the negotiation began in October, 2017 and signed the Agreed Po sition with the GoI on the 17.11.2017 and now it is in its 5th year. Against this backdrop, though the GoI may or may not consider it to be a serious concern, the quarter of a century ‘peace process’ has im mense toll on the life of the citizens in Nagaland. The Parliamentary Standing Committee re port on both the Houses of Parliament vide Report No. 213 quote: “TWO HUNDRED THIRTEEN REPORT, ONJULYJYA(PRESENTEDSTATESNORTHSITUATIONSECURITYINTHEEASTERNOFINDIATORASABHAON19TH2018),(LAIDTHETABLEOF LOK SABHA ON 19TH JULY 2018)”

The Twin Towers violated several building codes as observed by the Supreme Court. Accord ing to reports, the Noida Authority was complicit in sanctioning the building plan. Initially, the plan was to build 14 towers which of 9 floors. Later, around 2012, the new plan suggested twin towers with a height of 40 floors. The space that was supposed to have a park for the towers was converted into build ing space and the two towers were also constructed very close to each other. Certainly, the builders as with most in various cities, have been flouting build ing norms as they have been facilitated by corrupt housing authorities. The government of UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath, has made an example of the twin tower demolition. Much of the political will of the BJP government in UP stems from the fact that the towers were given the clearance from the previ ous Samajwadi Party government under Akhilesh Yadav. There are also many builders in Haryana and Delhi who have also flouted building laws but there has been no action taken. It is only when there are litigations then there could be some response from the court. The worst victims of such building offences in the past were buyers who had to wait for decades after paying hefty sums as advance and most of it in black. The buyers cannot disclose the amount of black money paid and so are caught in very tricky situations. It is incumbent upon the courts to direct the metro development authorities to form inspection teams to check various buildings in the metro cities. The laws can be effected only if there is a will to ensure that they are not flouted instead of acting only based on complaints. Quotes
The sub ject matter pertains to early conclusion of the peace talks. Quote: “... The Committee therefore, strongly recommends that the Government should conclude the peace talks, at the earliest, based on a broad understanding over the most conten tious issues...” However, during the last five years, the Naga Political issues could not come up for discussion in the Parlia ment. The Elected rep resentatives, particularly from Nagaland in both the Houses of Parliament and in the State Assembly did take little interest to pursue the long cherished solution to the Naga po liticalOnceissue.again, the NTC is urged to draw the atten tion of the GoI to the pre vailing environment in the State of Nagaland that the inordinate delay of politi cal solution has become the bane of the miseries of the common man in Nagaland. The general public in Nagaland have been the ultimate vic tim of the unabated and multiple illegal taxations, all kinds of suppressive and anti-people activities of the selfish authorities and the armed elements alike under the signed ceasefires during the last 25 years have virtually de stroyed everything both in public and private sectors. The worst victims are the educated youth and the tens of thousands of the school dropouts. In fact, the State of Nagaland, the second oldest State in the NE India has gone backward by 25 years in terms of progress and prosperity as proved by the progress of the other 9 years younger States in the NE have developed to become quotable model States in WhyIndia.thisstagnation and backwardness despite being funded lavishly by the Union Government? Because particularly all through these 25 years pe riod of political negotia tions, the unscrupulous el ements have transformed the State of Nagaland into their private goldmines. These elements, both state authorities and armed ele ments have taken undue advantages on the gullible general public and their facilities with vengeance. Thus, Nagaland was made to be the safest haven for the exploiters in India. The above being the background, and knowing the plight of the people of the State well, the NTC has been vocal for the deliverance of Nagaland from total perishment. The NTC is aware that the sole remedial measure for the existing ailment of Nagaland is the Naga Political Solution. The NTC is apprehensive that the consequences of the further delay of solution or the fiasco will be di sastrous.Despite, the NTC observes that both the GoI and the UDA Govt. in Nagaland have apathetic and lackadaisical attitude towards sincere conclu sion of the peace process though the official nego tiations were completed by the 31st October, 2019. As a matter of fact, the Prime Minister of India, Sri. Narendra Modi, dur ing his maiden visit to Na galand on 1.12.2015 made the promise that the Naga Political Issue would be resolved within 18 months time has gone into obliv ion. It is observed that the GoI has tendencies to be overwhelmed by the concocted assessments and disinformation fed by its agencies with ulterior motives. Secondly, no matter how BJP tries to be evasive about pacification of the public in Nagaland by the then BJP Secretary Sri. Ram Madhav in 2018 that the State election would be for solution has become a shameful betrayal. Indeed, the GoI had officially invited both the NSCN(IM) and the WC, NNPGs to negoti ating tables. The Naga negotiators believed in the determination and sincer ity of the GoI and thus the processes of negotiations had already been success fully completed under the Interlocutor-ship of Sri. RN Ravi. Thus, definitely the ball is now in the court of the GoI, and it is time for the Union Govt. to make it or unmake it with out keeping the people of Nagaland in suspense any longer.In the meantime, the NTC feels aghast at the way the UDA Govt. has been facilitating the peace process all through these years. Quoting the statement of Mr. Ch ingwang Konyak, Presi dent of NDPP which appeared in local papers dated 11.8.2022 “….de clared that they (MLAs) would not stand on the way for solution of the problem.” (from the con cluding para) is vitiated. The proof is that on the 16th July, 2022, the Po litical Core Committee on Naga Political Issue (PCCoNPI) adopted 4 points resolution which was widely circulated and published in the local me dia was found scuttled and allowed it to die a prema ture death. The reason for such sabotage was better known to the PCCoNPI. It is obvious that the UDA is hell bent against solu tion and the very resolu tion was too positive to pursue and therefore had to be shelved lest should it be furnished to GoI, it would be considered to be a vital material for solution. Nevertheless, the UDA knows that lest its anti-solution stance be camouflaged with theo retical and theatrical in nuendos for solution, it would be costly in the long run. Secondly, the Chief Minister of Nagaland focussing the next Assem bly election to superim pose the urgent political solution is nothing but the ploy to demean the peaceful process. Thirdly, the opinion of the NDPP President that the MLAs are to resign post the at tainment of the agreement implies that the MLAs have refused to pave the way. Thus, the activities of UDA remained obvious that it frantically hobnobs with those forces- both armed and civil elements to derail solution is the greatest sabotage of peace and betrayal of the people in Nagaland.Whatever the circum stances it may be, the NTC urges upon the GoI to resolve the issue at the earliest without inhibi tion. The NTC assures that the people are ever ready to have the solution and also ever prepared to handle should there be any consequences. Media Cell, NTC
I n the recent past the Power Department attempted to explain the lengthy Recharge Code for the new meter system in response to some complaints. I don’t exactly remember the contents, but the department threw the re sponsibility on the system manufacturer. With the commotion we hoped the problem would soon be resolved. I recently recharged (1st Au gust 2022) a domestic phase and was pleasantly surprised to find the status quo maintained. I first recharged my new meter system on 27th April 2021. It had a 20-digit Recharge Code, which was bad. Compare this with the mobile users of India. The country probably has more than a billion mobile numbers in use and all the mobiles have 10-digit numbers. One Time Passwords (OTP) for various purposes range from 4 to 8 digits. Millions of people must be receiving OTP’s every day. The ante has been upped. We now have 120 numbers, 6 asterisks [*], and 6 number symbols [#] (132 in all) to punch every time to update the balance after recharge. A relative informed me that one mistake and we have to start the process all over again. To add to our woes, a slight delay in punching the next button sends one back to the starting point. Even a 100-meter runner tripping midway is not sent back to the start line. Moreover, these are not bank trans actions where hackers are patiently waiting for any delay to loot an account. It looks like the Meter System manufacturer has the Government of Nagaland (GoN) in a stranglehold. Why did the GoN opt for this company? Is it the only company in India? Did the Government of India dump it on us? It is obvious this company has some of the most inept engineers on its rolls. Instead of an 8- or 10-digit number (at the most) these people have given us a 132-button-punching exercise. Most people must be going through this ordeal every month.The reason for the new meter system, as explained by the Power Department, was to check power theft, non-payment of bills, etc. I am not sure if power pilferage will stop, even with the new system, unless areas are raided without warning. As long as the department grandly announces dates-for-raids for illegal connections in specified zones, matters will not improve. An illegal user would remove all con nections early morning of the announced date, and hook on after the inspection team leaves. Yes, they would suffer a few hours inconvenience of non-availability of power. But don’t we all, due to load-shedding, during heavy rains and strong winds, etc.? This is the reason power pilferers are the happiest lot in Nagaland. As for the non-payment of electricity bills by vari ous government departments, establishments, individuals, etc. within the stipulated period, why does the department not cut off the power supply? Believe me, they will come running to clear up their dues, of course if one has the grit to resolve such matters. But if we are intimidated by guns and business suits, then the matter ends there. If this 132-digit punching torture, akin to the exercise schedule of Mike Tyson is to remain, dear Power Department, please give us back our humble old meter boxes.

The builders, on the Supreme Court orders, had to demolish the 40-storey twin towers at their own expense. According to reports the Towers cost around Rs.800 crore and the builders who have filed for insolvency are still not absolved of refunding the amount to the buyers. For many, the colossal cost of the buildings should have been considered by the court since the builders will not be in a position to refund the amount. However, the court ruled that any firm violating the building laws have to face the consequences and not be given a long rope and get away. If the law cannot be enforced then it becomes useless.
A s we observe from various statements made in the print media, social media and the opinions expressed by various organizations, civil societies, NGOs and even individuals, we see a so ciety that is hopelessly di vided and drifting along in utter confusion with no clear direction or vision. Development and progress has taken a back seat with the elected Government not providing any credible Governance and the writ of parallel Governments having tremendous impact particularly on the economy of the State and the people at large. The tag of the “worst performing state“ in SDG( Sustainable Develop ment Goals) as classified by Niti Ayog of Government of India is a matter of shame and disgrace. In the recently held CWG (Commonwealth Games), the performance of India is not something to be really proud of though many of the sports persons from India have done well. We are proud of our neigh bors, Manipur, Mizoram, Assam and also those from other states but Nagaland has drawn a blank- What a shame for all of us belong ing to the sixteenth state of the Union of India- Is it not time for us to get our act together? Whether it is on political, economic, social, intellectual front, we are not able to make any worth while progress- Why ?- The reasons are not far to seek. An example that we all can acknowledge- As you cross Nagaland gate on Golaghat road in Dimapur or Doboka road clearly indicates that as you touch Nagaland, the roads are not smooth (or rather full of pot holes) whereas other states includ ing the immediate neighbors appear to be from a differ ent planet. Travel through Assam to Dirhang/Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh , to Shillong/ Cherrapunji in Meghalaya or even the roads in Diphu in Karbi Anglong not to talk of other highways 1. Political : Nagas have been yearning for peace for decades but it seems to be elusive and today it seems to be further away as things are moving. Election to the State assembly is just six months away as per the normal term. There have been many pronouncements about solution to the vexed Naga political problem, which is the oldest in Asia. Slogans have been raised “Election for Solution” in 2018 before the Hustings and even before that in 2013 and even in 2008 and 2003. In fact since 1997, after ceasefire agreement between IM and GOI, talks have been going on, supposedly in the right direction. One wonders what is the right direction? In 2001 another ceasefire agreement with K group (now NNPGs) by GOI. It is already time for silver jubilee of the ceasefire and talks. Nagas are indeed patient but how long should our people suffer? What is the way forward? There must be sincerity and com mitment from the leaders in the Underground set up, the leaders in the state and most importantly leaders in the Centre. Solution must be accorded top most Priority instead of having election.
3. Widen the base for State’s own revenue: a) Start the process of production of Oil and Natural gas: Oil or gas is perishable and at the rate it is being extracted by our immediate neighbor Assam, especially in the disputed ar eas bordering Assam where atleast 8 locations are identi fied as brought out by our Hon’ble MP, Shri Tokheho Yepthomi in the Parliament during this monsoon ses sion. The reply given by the Union Minister was that the revenue earned by Assam over a period of five years is a whopping Rs 9500 crores. Has our Government even protested about the extrac tion in the disputed area and claimed for our share of revenue even though the case is pending in the Supreme court since 1988. The question is- When the matter is sub-judice how is one of the contending parties extracting in the dis puted area utterly excluding the other contending party. I hope the Government of the day in the state is taking up the matter. This could be one of the main ways to increase our own revenue base. Nagaland must start production of oil and natu ral gas immediately at least in the districts where there are no disputes. b) Review the NLTP 1989 Act immediately: Drinking liquor is one of the oldest habits known to mankind and cannot be forcibly stopped though it can be regulated by the Gov ernment. Prohibition has not been successful in almost all parts of the World. In the 1920s it failed in America and gave rise to Mafia. It failed in Bombay Province, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat and in any other state in the coun try, even in the Northeast, all states are free of prohibition of liquor because many have tried to impose prohibition and failed. In fact our neigh bor Manipur has decided to lift prohibition. In Nagaland on the pretext of prohibition, almost every shop is clan destinely retailing spurious liquor in every district and the trading is controlled by syndicates operating under various Godfathers, both Underground as well as over ground. The NLTP ACT 1989 and its implementa tion in the state has been a complete failure. It is up to the Government of the day to decide and not for the NBCC or other NGOs to take the decision. Once total prohibition is lifted, it can be regulated by the Govern ment and in turn this lead to creation of more employ ment and also increase the base of State’s own revenue which will be substantial and in turn the revenue so earned can be ploughed back to vital areas such as health care, education, power and maintenance of roads etc.. c) Levy property tax in urban areas: The old system of levying household tax in rural areas is not at all logical. In fact the poor people in the rural areas are taxed whereas the rich in urban areas constructing palatial buildings both com mercial and residential are not paying any tax. d) There must be eq uitable distribution of funds received by the state Gov ernment for development and conscious effort must be made to stop dividing Nagas on tribal lines. Employment in the Government sector has crossed the saturation point and all out efforts must be made to promote the private sector. The recent effort of the CSR conclave though late, is perhaps a step in the right direction. Bank ing coverage must improve and the State must ensure to legislate laws that can en able the entrepreneurs and start ups to avail loans. And make the private sector more dynamic and contribute to the economy of the state e) Act on Act east policy: The State Govern ment must consciously work and ensure that the Act East policy of GOI is really implemented on ground. As sam has taken a good initia tive by having a department of Act east policy. It used to be Look East policy during the UPA Government, and the present Government has christened it as “Act East policy” to give it more impetus and perhaps prior ity. Our state needs to gear up and access all possible benefits. Perhaps the future of our economy lies in the east especially because of the proximity to the ASEAN market. H.

Nagaland-
Every time you venture out in your life of faith, you will find something in your circumstances that, from a commonsense standpoint, will flatly contradict your faith. But common sense is not faith, and faith is not com mon sense. In fact, they are as different as the natural life and the spiritual. Can you trust Jesus Christ where your common sense cannot trust Him? Can you venture out with courage on the words of Jesus Christ, while the realities of your commonsense life continue to shout, “It’s all a lie”? When you are on the mountaintop, it’s easy to say, “Oh yes, I believe God can do it,” but you have to come down from the mountain to the demon-possessed valley and face the realities that scoff at your Mount-ofTransfiguration belief (see Luke 9:28-42). Every time my theology becomes clear to my own mind, I encounter something that contradicts it. As soon as I say, “I believe ‘God shall supply all [my] need,’ ” the testing of my faith begins (Philippians 4:19). When my strength runs dry and my vision is blinded, will I endure this trial of my faith victoriously or will I turn back in defeat? Faith must be tested, because it can only become your intimate possession through conflict. What is chal lenging your faith right now? The test will either prove your faith right, or it will kill it. Jesus said, “Blessed is he who is not offended because of Me” Matthew 11:6). The ultimate thing is confidence in Jesus. “We have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end…” (Hebrews 3:14). Believe steadfastly on Him and everything that chal lenges you will strengthen your faith. There is continual testing in the life of faith up to the point of our physical death, which is the last great test. Faith is absolute trust in God— trust that could never imagine that He would forsake us (see Hebrews 13:5-6).
2. Finance and econ omy: Nagaland appears to be saddled with a huge debt burden of over Rs 16500 crores and the accumulated annual deficit has crossed Rs 2200 crores as per the current budget whereas the State’s own revenue has re mained at Rs 650 crores. As things stand now, even the salaries of the Government employees are not being paid on time not to talk of main tenance of assets already created and new projects that can take the state and its people to a higher levels at par with other states and in tune the changing times. For example, Nagaland is the only state without a Medical college in the entire country. Wherever we look in the state, there is noth ing happening that we can look forward or up to. The common man is absolutely frustrated and feel helpless. Surely the State Govern ment can do better than this? A few thoughts in the form of constructive suggestion can be offered.

The Bharatiya Janata Party’s agenda is to keep smaller parties away from power, Pawar claimed. “Efforts are underway at the national level to bring non-BJP parties together and bring about a public opinion against the BJP,” he said.Pawar, 81, said he didn’t want to take up any responsibility at this age. “I will only help bring together non-BJP parties to generate a public opinion against the BJP,” he said. “The Union govern ment made several promises since the 2014 general elec tions, but it never fulfilled a single promise. The prime minister ha d promised a house to every person in the country, but the govern ment failed to keep its word. Now the new promise is of creating a USD 5 trillion economy by 2024,” Pawar said. The NCP chief further criticised the BJP, claiming it uses Central probe agencies to come to power in states. “What BJP is doing against its opponents is nothing but an attack on parliamentary democracy which is a matter of serious concern. In all the nonBJP-ruled states, the saffron party is trying to split leg islators and capture power. Maharashtra is the latest example,” Pawar said, add ing that the BJP has failed in Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. In June, Eknath Shinde and 39 other Shiv Sena MLAs rebelled against the party leadership, leading to the collapse of the Uddhav Thackeray-led MVA govern ment, which comprised the Sena, NCP and Congress. Shinde became the CM on June 30 with the BJP’s support.Pawar said the BJP was misusing the Enforcement Directorate, Central Bureau of Investigation, and the Income Tax, to scare Op positionTwoleaders.senior NCP lead ers - Anil Deshmukh and Nawab Malik - are currently in jail after being arrested by the ED in different money laundering cases. “Can you imagine a record 110 raids by the CBI, ED and IT on Anil Deshmukh and his kin”? Pawar asked.

BEIJING, AUG 29 (IANS): The Chinese For eign Ministry on Monday denounced the passage of two US Navy warships through the Taiwan Strait, calling it a “provocation” aimed at “sabotaging re gional peace and stability”. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said Washington must ob serve the “One China” poli cy, which is the position that there is only one Chinese government, reports dpa news agency. Taiwan has had an independent govern ment since 1949, but China considers the democratic is land part of its territory and opposes any form of official contacts between Taiwan and others. On Sunday, the guided-missile cruisers USS Antietam and USS Chancellorsville made a “routine” mission through international waters, the US Navy’s 7th Fleet said. “The ship’s transit through the Taiwan Strait demonstrates the US’ com mitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific.

COLOMBO, AUG 29 (PTI): Sri Lanka on Mon day said it will privatise the country’s loss-making national carrier as the cashstrapped government “can no longer afford to inject money” into running the airline. The government is looking to sell a 49 per cent stake each of the Sri Lankan Airlines’ catering and ground-handling units in efforts to restructure the state-run carrier, while 51 per cent will be retained under state hold, Aviation Minister Nimal Siripala de Silva told reporters here. “This restructuring is essential as the government can no longer afford to inject money into running the air line,” he said. “Annually the government has been pro viding the airline between USD 80 billion to USD 200 billion to run its operations,” de SilvaThesaid.minister said the revenue from the sale of the catering operation can be used to pay off debt amount ing to USD 80 million that was obtained by mortgaging its shares, as well as some other loans.

The airline, formed in 1979 as Air Lanka, was re branded Srilankan Airlines under the management con trol of Emirates in 1998. In 2007, the government took back control of it from the Emirates. Srilankan Airlines is among over 190 stateowned enterprises that are making huge losses. Without retaining a 51 per cent stake in the airline, Sri Lanka might lose owner ship of the companies to be sold, Economy Next news website quoted minister de Silva as “Butsaying.ifthe investors are Sri Lankan nationals, we can go for more. There are many rich people in Sri Lanka, they can come to gether as a syndicate or with airlines and offer a bid,” he said. Sri Lankan President Ranil Wickremesinghe has called for much needed reforms for the loss-making nationalAccordingcarrier. to Colom bo-based think tank Advo cata, SriLankanAirlines has, on numerous occasions, re quired treasury guaranteed loans to stay afloat, and has amassed over LKR 53.6 bil lion in guarantees as of Au gust 2021, the report said.

On Saturday, the Roy al Navy announced the warship’s departure for the US to “shape the future of stealth jet and drone opera tions” off the coast of North America and in the Carib bean. “Taking the HMS Prince of Wales task group across the Atlantic for the rest of this year will not only push the boundaries of UK carrier operations, but will reinforce our close working relationship with our clos est ally,” said Commanding Officer, Captain Richard Hewitt. “From operating the F35 Lightnings and drones to hosting the At lantic Future Forum, none of this would be possible without the efforts of the amazing sailors on board, many of which are on their first deployment with the Royal Navy,” he said. The 65,000-tonne warship was to deploy initially alongside frigate HMS Richmond, tanker RFA Tideforce and an air group of helicopters and drones, before F-35B stealth fighters join the de ployment once the ship ar rives in North America for the Westlant 22 worldquicklyisalliance’supship,tion’sNorthtoinesswasNavy,Accordingdeployment.totheRoyalHMSPrinceofWalestoremainathigh-readthroughoutitsmissionAmericainherroleasAtlanticOrganisa(NATO)commandwhichseesherheadthenavalelementoftheresponseforcethatcapableofbeingdeployedanywhereinthetoreacttocrises.

Vikram Pratap then nailed one in himself in the second minute of stoppage time to make it a five-star performance from the Islanders.RUFC looked a far cry from the spirited side of their first two games with MCFC snuffing out whatever challenge they would have provided in the first half itself, with some eye-catching football. The first MCFC goal gave an indication of things to come whe n Argentine Pereyra Diaz, with a lovely body turn in midfield, found Scotsman Greg Stewart’s run in between two defenders, who made no mistake with a clinical finish. This was after RUFC had got the game’s first corner for themselves in the very first minuteMCFCitself. continued to attack and Lallianzuala Chhangte, who had had a few runs before that, received the ball on the right flank and cut inside, to let go a left-footer which took an unfortunate deflection from RUFC defender Aidar Mambetaliev’s head to wrong foot keeper Niraj Kumar and go in. In the 35th minute, Greg Stewart took a freekick from the right, floating the ball across goal. Mehtab Singh, who had come in from his position in deep defence, met it on the halfvolley and found the back of the net. The game was well beyond RUFC now and with the kind of form MCFC were in. To their credit however, they came out with positive intent in the second-half and did create more chances to score than they did in the first. MCFC were also not letting up and after Vikram Pratap was deemed to have been brought down in the box, Jahouh converted from the spot calmly to make it 4-0 for the Islanders in the 63rd RUFCminute.then got a consolation goal from 17-year-old Gyanmar Nikum, who had been brought on a few minutes back.
