MOSCOW, AUG 31 (AP): Mikhail Gorbachev, who set out to revitalise the Soviet Union but ended up unleashing forces that led to the collapse of communism, the breakup of the state and the end of the Cold War, died Tues day. The last Soviet leader was 91. Gorbachev died after a long illness, according to a statement from the Central Clinical Hospital in Moscow. No other details were given.Though in power less than seven years, Gorbachev unleashed a breathtaking series of changes.

His power hopelessly sapped by an attempted coup against him in August 1991, he spent his last months in office watching repub lic after republic declare indepen dence until he resigned on Dec. 25, 1991. The Soviet Union wrote itself into oblivion a day later. A quarter-century after the collapse, Gorbachev told The Associated Press that he had not considered using widespread force to try to keep the USSR together because he feared chaos in the nuclear country. By the end of his rule, he was powerless to halt the whirlwind he had started. Yet Gorbachev may have had a greater impact on the second half of the 20th century than any other political figure. In his memoirs, he said he had long been frustrated that in a country with immense natural resources, tens of millions were living in poverty. Mikhail Ser geyevich Gorbachev was born March 2, 1931, in the village of Privolnoye in southern Russia.

The club said it was, therefore, imperative and inevitable to demolish the existing building in its entirety and build a totally new building, well equipped with facilities providing all modern ame nities for the welfare of all the Nagas.However, Naga Stu dents’ Federation had said that Naga Club building in Kohima had been made an “issue of dispute” by some individuals who recently formed a Naga Club and were now not only laying claims as the sole owner of the building in Kohima, but also issuing eviction orders.
DIMAPUR, AUG 31 (NPN): Naga Club (NC), which had served dead line on the Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) to vacate the Naga Club building at Kohima on or before Au gust 27, has reminded the federation to communicate with the Club on the action taken.In a reminder to the Naga Students’ Federa tion president, the Naga Club president Kuolachalie Seyie and working com mittee chairman Khriedil houlie Theünuo reminded that the federation was requested to vacate the building in toto on or before August 27, 2022, so as to enable building reconstruc tion. However, the Naga Club said that the deadline of has already expired and the club has not heard any thing from Naga Students’ Federation.Itmay be mentioned that following Naga Club executive council’s decision to begin the construction by September 1, the NC on July 12 requested the NSF to vacate the building. In its letter, NC said that reconstruction of the building was a long-felt need.The club stated that though NSF was an “en deared tenant”, the allot ment of the rooms by the then general secretary of the Naga Club Vilavor Liegisie on rent basis was given to NSF in a demi order note specifically men tioned on the body of rental application letter dated April 4, 1983. It said NSF paid Rs 500 in rent for the month of April 1983 on April 7, 1983, after which the fed eration never paid Naga Club house rent from May 1983 till date. However, as a student organization, the club said it treated them as children, and therefore nev er questioned non-payment of house rent. NC said it consider itself as parents and elders and therefore NSF’s non-payment of house rent has never been made an issue in the past for all these years since May 1983 nor has it been made an issue today, for the same reason.However, with the pas sage of time, Naga Club said that its property had undergone the severest of depreciation and stood dilapidated without proper amenities, projecting Nagas particularly the Naga Club and all that it represents, in a very poor light, as though it were in a deep slumber.

Students of the educational institute, which had a residential facility, left for their homes on Tuesday night, the officer claimed. “There were 224 stu dents, and the authorities asked them to vacate the premises by the night of August 30. The district ad ministration helped them go to their homes. In most cases, guardians came and took away their wards,” he said. The demolition drive, however, was conducted days after a teacher of the madrassa was arrested for his suspected links with terror outfits - Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent and Ansarul Bangla Team. This is the second such action taken by the state administration this week as a madrassa in Barpeta district, which had allegedly sheltered two Bangladeshi operatives of Ansarul Ban gla Team for four years, was demolished on Monday. One of the alleged Ban gladeshi terror operatives, the principal, a teacher and another person associated with the madrassa were also arrested by the Barpeta police. The police officer from Bongaigaon said the Kabaitari Ma Arif Madrassa was demolished, following the recovery of incriminat ing documents related to ‘jihadi’ elements from its canteen during an operation by the Goalpara police on Tuesday night. The Goal para police arrested the madrassa teacher last week, and the raid was carried out based on inputs provided by him, he said. The arrested teacher had joined the ma drassa in 2014, police said. Chief Minister Hi manta Biswa Sarma had recently said that the state was becoming a “hotbed of jihadi activities” with about five modules having links with Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent and Ansarul Bangla Team busted in the last few months. to Cong in CAA case in SC M’laya govt to relocate Dalit Sikhs to new location

NEW DELHI, AUG 31 (PTI): The Twitter user behind the arrest of fact checker and Alt News cofounder Mohammed Zubair is a 36-year-old Delhi-based real estate businessman who originally belongs to Ajmer in Rajasthan, police said on Wednesday.Police officials, who have been working to estab lish the identity of the Twit ter handle @balajikijaiin operating under the name “Hanuman Bhakt”, did not disclose the businessman’s name. They said there is no evidence of his affiliation with a political party. “The investigation has revealed that the anony mous Twitter handle was operated by a 36-year-old real estate businessman who originally hails from Ajmer in Rajasthan and presently lives in Dwarka,” a police of ficial privy to the probe said. Police tracked him fol lowing a response from Twitter using an IP address and he was sent a formal notice to join the probe, the official added.

Another Congress leader and MP Karti Chi dambaram supported his view, saying every election requires a well-defined elec toral college. He also said “reformists are not rebels”. “Every election needs a well-defined and clear elec toral college. The process of forming the electoral col lege must also be clear, well defined and transparent. An ad hoc electoral college is no electoral college,” he said on Twitter.He also supported the idea of having primaries, saying, “we must have pri maries in every constitu ency, but for that we need a defined and transparent members list.

And, of course, it will be given to the candidates once they file their nomination papers”.Congress MP Thar oor, who has expressed his intent to contest the party’s presidential election, agreed with Tewari, and said every body should know who can nominate and who can vote. “Certainly, I think it’s important that everybody should have transparency on the electoral rolls.

RANCHI, AUG 31 (PTI): A tale of inhuman torture has unfolded since Sunita, a 29-year-old help who was allegedly held captive at now-suspended BJP leader Seema Patra’s residence in Ranchi, was rescued by the police, an officer here said. Patra, wife of a retired IAS officer, was arrested earlier in the day. The accused leader, who had been evading ar rest since a complaint was lodged in the case by her son’s friend, was apprehend ed from her posh Ashok Nagar locality residence in Ranchi when she had gone there to collect some of her belongings, the police officer said. According to Argora Police Station in-charge Vinod Kumar, Sunita was recovered in an “indescrib able condition” on the night of August“She22.had severe wounds and burn marks all over her body, as examined by a woman officer.

Gandhi will embark on the padayatra, a foot march, covering about 3,500 km from Kanyku mari in Tamil Nadu to Kashmir over about 150 days, on September 7. The yatra will traverse through different parts of the coun try. Addressing reporters here, AICC general secre tary Jairam Ramesh said the aim of the party was to unite India, against BJP’s ‘divide India.’ It was the “biggest political mobilisation” un dertaken by the party and factors like social polarisa tion, economic inequality and concentration of pow ers with the Centre were reasons behind Gandhi em barking on the foot march, he said.“Rahul Gandhi is not going to give speeches, he is going to listen,” to mem bers of civil society includ ing the Dalits and Adivasis, Ramesh

A s India celebrates the 75th year of its Independence, it is readying itself with a new slogan, ‘Heal in India’, to open its doors to the world for medical tourism. Medi cal tourism is a term used to describe the practice of travelling across inter national borders to seek healthcare services. There has been a sea change in medical tourism in the last four decades: from people travelling to the USA or Europe for heart surgery or cancer treatment to the current times when there is an increasing flow of patients from rich countries to developing ones. The main reasons for seeking treatment over seas are cosmetic surgery (breast, liposuction), car diology/cardiac surgery (bypass, stent placement), orthopaedic surgery (hip and knee replacement), bariatric surgery, fertility treatment, organ trans plantation, dentistry and diagnostics. It is estimated that some 1.40 crore people travel to different countries for better medical treatment every year. In 2019, before Covid-19 struck, 6.97 lakh persons (seven per cent of the total international tour ists) travelled to India on a medical visa. It is expected that these numbers will go up rapidly as international travel opens up. Actually, the pandemic has created more backlogs across the world for elective surgeries like joint ance.coveredandsurgery,tients50,000inThailand,againstcostdia.raelUSA,costalowvelopingmaindevelopedayurveda,wellnessalsoorgansuper-specialties,ofhaswellnessandandnesiaandtistry,andcosmeticsorts.acquiredtourismDifferentreplacement.medicaldestinationshavespecialisationsofBrazilisfamousforsurgery,MexicoCostaRicafordenMalaysiafordentalcosmeticsurgery,Indoforhealthcheck-upsThailandforcosmeticbariatricsurgeriesandtourism.Indiatheuniquedistinctiontheavailabilityofallincludingtransplantation.Ithasarichtraditionofcentresandoffersyogaetc.Forpatientsfromthenations,thereasontogotodecountriesisthecost.Forinstance,jointreplacementcan$35,000-45,000inthe$20,000-25,000inIsand$6,000-8,000inInAheartbypasswouldupto$9,000inIndia$10,000-12,000in$11,000-12,000Singaporeand$45,000-intheUSA.Then,therearepaseekingcosmeticfertilitytreatmentothertreatmentsnotbyhealthinsurCanadaandtheUK have long waiting lists for elective surgeries, forcing many to seek treatment elsewhere. Some patients, particularly those undergo ing plastic surgery or sex change procedures, choose foreign destinations to en sure Theprivacy.strength of India lies in the skills of our doctors, support staff and nurses and the state-of-theart infrastructure which is comparable to the best in the world. Many doctors are trained abroad and language is not an issue. In dia has excellent diagnos tic and imaging services, which too are available at one-tenth to one-fifth of the cost in the USA. India has over 35 hospitals accredited by the JCI (Joint Commis sion International). This tag ensures quality, safety standards and adherence to international norms. India was ranked 10th among the 46 nations on the Medical Tourism Index 2020-21, released by independent information provider Med icalTourism.com.Manycountries are vying to have a greater share of the medical tour ism pie. In Thailand, Sin gapore, Malaysia, Dubai and South Korea, the gov ernments have facilitated medical tourism through initiatives like the Multiagency Government-Indus try Partnership (Singapore) and the National Commit tee for Promotion of Medi cal and Health Tourism (Malaysia). Germany and Hungary have broadened their ambit by including state and university hospi tals into the game. There are examples of collabo rations which transcend borders, like the Harvard Medical School, Dubai Center, and The Johns Hopkins Singapore Inter national Medical Center. So far, in India, it was left to individual hospi tals to market themselves. They would advertise the foreign qualifications of their doctors to attract patients from abroad. In the last few years, however, the government has taken proactive steps to harness medical tourism. Since Au gust 2019, foreigners can receive any treatment, ex cept organ transplantation, without a medical visa. In the last few months, a series of strategic moves has been initiated, such as streamlining Medical Value Travel (MVT) and the plan to launch a “Heal in India” project globally to showcase India’s expertise in healthcare. The govern ment has identified over 40 countries from where large numbers of people visit India for medical purposes. The Health Ministry, along with the National Health Authority, has developed a multi-lingual portal which is a one-stop shop for services provided by medical travel facilitators and hospitals. Ten airports with the maxi mum inflow of patients will offer services like facilita tion desks and translators. Some other initiatives envisaged include health insurance portability by way of giving an extended insurance cover, develop ment of medical enclaves for foreign patients and spe cial wellness tourism zones and capacity-building. A nodal agency, the Medi cal Value Travel Council, co-chaired by the health and tourism ministries, has been formed to streamline the integration of all stake holders. To complement these efforts, over 60 startups of medical facilitators have sprung up in key cit ies; they offer the choice of medical experts and hospi tals. They also arrange for the patients’travel, stay, visa, financial aid and, at times, translators, drivers, cooks and even house help. But, there are some flip sides too. Brain drain in the country towards private hospitals at the cost of the public sector is a concern in Thailand and it would apply to India as well. The risk of infections, includ ing drug-resistant ones, shortened post-operative care, lack of follow-up, unwarranted surgery and medico-legal issues are the other concerns. The Aus tralian Medical Associa tion has warned its citizens to consider the risks. The Center for Disease Control, USA, has issued a ‘yellow
An important COVID fallout: Communication skills put to test
‘W ork from home’, zoom meetings and a drastic cut down on physical interactions across the table have com pelled business organisations to search for a ‘hybrid model’ of running the enterprise, resetting the paradigms for performance evaluation and maintaining the efficacy of human resource development. Both in India as also in the developed West, organisa tions are said to be facing a situation where the employees have got used to not going to place of work so much so that they often allow their personal convenience to prevail over the requirements of their or ganisations.Employees could even choose to ignore the call from above for a physical or virtual meeting. Evolution of the ‘new normal’ for organisa tional functioning is work in progress, but many testing points for leadership are al ready cropping up, demanding a revised strategy for business management and productivity enhancement - in the scene left behind by the Covid on slaught.Flexible working hours, participative supervision by leaders at various levels, who earlier just gave orders and looked for compliance reports, and a changed framework of boss-subordinate relationship in which the senior would now be required to have some idea of the challenges an employee could be facing on family front, are some major reforms that the organisations have been made to adopt for their own Thegood.HRD people in any organisation have found their tasks multiplying and becom ing onerous on account of the new-found importance of upskilling and re-skilling, revision of methodology for performance evaluation and the need for working out ways and means of preserving con fidentiality of information ex changed by employees on line. A very crucial test of leadership in a situation of dispersed and distant loca tion of the work force is the effectiveness of communica tion sent top down on digital media. The days of lengthy letters and notifications des patched in hard copies are over and online communications are the norm now, but this is precisely the reason why
Preserving the confiden tiality of proprietary infor mation of the organisation requires security orientation programmes for the employees working from remote loca tions, framing of instructions that were easily understood and a new methodology for conducting the security audit.

If there has been any expectation from the recent CSR and Bankers’ conclave held in Kohima recently, where union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman graced the occasion as the guest of honour, it will perhaps follow the saying that ‘the taste of the pudding is in the eating’. As per the information at the close of the three-day conclave, there were committed assurances of around Rs.38 crore through CSR funding. The amount may be small but quite significant in comparison with the almost nil funding. It was also learnt that bankers have also pledged to fund some Rs.200 crore for various projects approved by the state government. All in all, these figures are small but at least some beginning has been made. In her speech, Sitharaman highlighted that calls for CSR will have to have some reality check. She also encouraged the state government to identify a product from each of the 16 districts. According to the union minister, on its part, the Centre will come up with viable plans build com mon facilities for packaging or processing. This assurance from the union minister comes from the premise that Nagaland is sitting atop a wealth of organic products. She also highlighted about the importance of branding of organic products by identifying them with image projection. Organic products are in high demand globally and the market is so huge that it will take quite an effort to supply the need. Another important advice that Sitharaman gave to the young students is to take up study of science and technology which are vital for economic growth through use of latest technology. The strong points of eco-tourism are reflected in the case of Sikkim the ‘organic state of India’ which has not only made its organic products well known across the nation but also its famed floriculture products. Tourism in Sik kim has emerged as the new profession of the Sikkimese people with its vast natural potential. Promotion of village tourism, homestay, cultural tourism, trekking tourism, ecotourism, wellness tourism, flori-tourism and adventure tourism has given a fillip to the tourism trade in the state where a large number of people are engaged under dif ferent employment opportunities. The lesson that can be learnt from Sikkim is that it has harnessed the potential of its people by empowering with relevant skills and thereby creating a mass-based economic movement. A government can only but provide necessary infrastructure such as roads, power, water etc but it cannot run tourism industry by making its bureaucracy as event managers. Also the government can play a vital role of pro moting economic activities by ensuring that there is investor confidence. It goes without saying that investors need to operate in an environment where they feel secure and confident that their en terprises will not be overshadowed by anti-social elements. Nagaland has lost momentum and time for progress. Therefore, the state government has to bell the cat and ensure that it fulfils its constitu tional obligations and not shield its wilful neglect by using solution as the red herring.

What was the joy that Jesus had? Joy should not be confused with happiness. In fact, it is an insult to Jesus Christ to use the word happiness in connection with Him. The joy of Jesus was His absolute self-surrender and self-sacrifice to His Father— the joy of doing that which the Father sent Him to do— “…who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross…” (Hebrews 12:2). “I delight to do Your will, O my God…” (Psalm 40:8). Jesus prayed that our joy might continue fulfill ing itself until it becomes the same joy as His. Have I allowed Jesus Christ to introduce His joy to me? Living a full and overflowing life does not rest in bodily health, in circumstances, nor even in seeing God’s work succeed, but in the perfect understanding of God, and in the same fellowship and oneness with Him that Jesus Himself enjoyed. But the first thing that will hinder this joy is the subtle irritability caused by giving too much thought to our circumstances. Jesus said, “…the cares of this world,…choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful” (Mark 4:19). And before we even realize what has happened, we are caught up in our cares. All that God has done for us is merely the thresh old— He wants us to come to the place where we will be His witnesses and proclaim who Jesus is. Have the right relationship with God, finding your joy there, and out of you “will flow rivers of living water” (John 7:38). Be a fountain through which Jesus can pour His “living water.” Stop being hypocritical and proud, aware only of yourself, and live “your life… hidden with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:3).

communication which will be always relevant are - ‘brevity should not be at the cost of clarity’, ‘it should not lend itself to more than one inter pretation’ and ‘the communi cation should not hurt human sensitivity’.Success of a senior today depends a great deal on par ticipative supervision, which basically allows a free twoway communication with the juniors, discourages buck passing and establishes an in ternal transparency that keep the working environ free of favouritism.Hierarchy-driven organ isations often bred the malady of seniors avoiding the re sponsibility of taking a deci sion and pushing the ‘files’ up to their superiors - Covid intervention has on the other hand further strengthened the progressive trend of successful organisations becoming ‘flat’ in the sense of delegating the power of decision-making. A welcome upshot of the Covid era is the greater handson involvement of seniors in work as team leaders and a greater recognition of merit of the individual as the centre of all productivity. This is going to stay as a learning from the past. At the base of all these reforms is the skill of all round communication.Asalreadymentioned, it is the HRD leaders who face the challenge of reframing the strategy of recruitment, continuing with in-house training in the new environ and changing deployment of the personnel in keeping with the demands of Covid contingency.Remote handling called for new protocols, new modes of communication and special measures to prevent security breach in a situation of wider online sharing of Programmesinformation.ofre-skill ing for multi-tasking, enhanc ing organisational loyalty and strengthening quality controls have to be reframed as Covid proved to be a great ‘equaliser’ for business organisations on one hand and putting the focus on competition built around ‘quality’ of product and ser vice on the Communicationother. skills again are central to Social Media Marketing (SMM), which uses the digital outreach to intelligently use personal data to cater to the choices of customers.

Rakesh Ex-President,Kochhar,Indian So ciety of Gastroenterology (As published in The Tribune) Towards a green economy T he green economy was launched by the UNEP, a United Nation Environment Program in 2008 as initiative to give analysis a policy support for the investment in the envi ronment for greening and green sector. Green economy aimed at environment sustenance and reduce the potential risk caused to our environment. It also aimed at development of environment without causing any harm to it. With the concep tion of Green Economy, many start-up firm have built their business around the Green Economy. Firms are beginning to see the viability of a business. Today due to the rising fuel prices, everyone is beginning to see the im portance of alternative energy sources and the people also begin to realize that sources are becoming scarce. With the growing demand for energy and the descending supply of it, everyone is starting to gain interest in the Green Economy. As such more and more startup firms are attempting to tap into and take advantage of the growing interest in the green market. The world today is doing everything to combat Global Warming which is seen as a major threat to future earning of almost each sector in the global economy by the adoption of Green Technology. China is one of the good example to understand what Green Economy would be like in the developed countries. Currently China invest more than any other country in renewableAnotherenergy.initiative of sustainable development is metrics and indica tors. Green Economy and sustainable development are about measuring the transformation which encourage the economic growth. Some of the trans formation initiative include that there is less production of carbon oxide, recycling of wastes, and ensuring that the ecosystem is sustainable. The world’s population depends on agriculture for food and provision of employment opportunities. Through sustainable de velopment practices, agricultural yield will double increasing the available of food, reduction of poverty and plenty of water for all. In conclusion I would like to sug gest that one should take up a program to caters green jobs. It will increase their marketability and allow them to get ahead of everyone else. Furthermore a Green Economy has the potential in the path of sustainable development. It can also help to eradicate poverty. A Green Economy can generate as much growth and employment as a brown economy and outperform rowing towards a Green Economy with require world leaders, civil society and leading business to col laboratively engage in this transition. It will required sustained effort on the path of policymakers and their constituents to rethink and redefine traditional measures of wealth, property and well-being.

NEW DELHI, AUG 31 (IANS): There will be no cap on air ticket prices from August 31, and airlines will have flexibility in fixing the airfares. However, experts said that high competition among the airlines may lead to benefits for fliers and many airlines may offer dis counts as per the demands. Aviation expert Harsh vardhan said: “The move will give flexibility to the air lines in deciding air fares and airlines can charge as per their policies. Airfare cap was more towards the higher side. New airline has come and there is competition in the sector. To attract travel ers, some airlines are likely to come up with offers.” An industry source said that airlines will have freedom to decide on air ticket prices, according to the prevailing market situations. They may raise prices during festive season as higher fares will add to the margins, he said. Earlier, the Civil Aviation Ministry had said that after review of the current status of Scheduled Domestic Op erations vis-a-vis passenger demand for air travel, it has been decided to remove the fare bands notified from time to time regarding the airfares with effect from August 31. The ministry had im posed lower and upper limits on airfares after the resump tion of services in May 2020 following the initial twomonth nationwide lock down to contain the spread of Covid-19. Thereafter, the limits were relaxed in a phased manner according to the improvement in air traffic in the country. The lower caps were meant as a relief for airlines struggling after the Covid-19 pandemic. At the same time, the upper caps on airfares were fixed to ensure that passengers do not have to pay a hefty amount for air travel. Earlier, discussions on removing the fare bands for domestic airfares were held among the stakeholders including the government authorities and airlines. Carriers were of the view that removal of the pricing caps is required for the fullfledged recovery of domestic air traffic.

removed Zero import of Chinese Ganesh idols this year
NEW DELHI, AUG 31 (IANS): The fes tive season of this year has started with the 10-day grand celebrations of Ganesh festival across the country from today giving a high hope for the business community for big business this year. With this festival, the Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) has once again re-continue its boycott of Chinese goods campaign. CAIT’ National President B.C. Bhartia and Secretary General Praveen Khandelwal said that according to an esti mate, more than 20 crore Ganesh idols are purchased in the country every year, which generates an estimated business of more than Rs 300 crore. They said that since the last two years, the trend of installing eco-friendly idols of Lord Ganesh in large quantities across the country is growing very fast. Earlier, large quantities of Ganesha idols made of plaster of paris, stone, marble and other items were imported from China due to cheap prices but due to the campaign of boycott of Chinese goods by CAIT in the last two years, the import of Chinese Ga nesh idols stands nil and the local craftsmen, artisans and potters working in their houses across cities all over the country involving their family women make idols from clay and cow dung, which are easily immersed.

MOSCOW, AUG Russian officials and law makers treaded carefully on Wednesday while reacting to Mikhail Gorbachev’s death, praising him for his role in ending the Cold War but deploring his failure to avert the collapse of the SovietTheUnion.stance was reflect ed by state television broad casts, which paid tributes to Gorbachev as a historic fig ure but described his reforms as poorly planned and held him responsible for failing to safeguard the country’s interests in dialogue with the West.The criticism echoed earlier assessments by Rus sian President Vladimir Putin, who has famously lamented the collapse of the Soviet Union as the “great est geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century”. In a telegram of con dolences released by the Kremlin, Putin praised Gor bachev as a man who left “an enormous impact on the course of world history.” “He led the country during difficult and dramat ic changes, amid large-scale foreign policy, economic and society challenges,” Putin“Hesaid.deeply realised that reforms were neces sary and tried to offer his solutions for the acute prob lems.”Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov described Gorbachev as an “extraor dinary” statesman who will “always remain in the coun try’s history”.“Gorbachev has given an impulse to ending the Cold War and he sincerely wanted to believe that it will be over and a new romantic period will start between the renewed Soviet Union and the collective West,” Peskov said. “Those romantic ex pectations failed to mate rialise. The bloodthirsty nature of our opponents has come to light, and it’s good that we realised that in time.”While avoiding explicit personal criticism of Gor bachev, Putin in the past repeatedly blamed him for failing to secure written commitments from the West that would rule out NATO’s expansion eastward — an is sue that has become a major irritant in Russia-West ties for decades and foment ed tensions that exploded when the Russian leader sent troops into Ukraine on FebruaryMembers24. of the Krem lin-controlled parliament sought followed a similar path, hailing Gorbachev’s historic role but lamenting the SovietLeonidcollapse.Slutsky, the head of the foreign affairs committee in the lower house, the State Duma, hailed Gorbachev as “the most remarkable politician of his time”, but described him as a “contradictory” fig ure whose reforms “played into the hands of those who were trying to wipe the USSR off the world’s map.”

The 12 participating District Table Tennis Associations namely from Dimapur, Niuland, Mokokchung, Peren, Zunheboto, Chümoukedima, Wokha, Tuensang, Phek, Mon, Tseminyu and Kohima, without whose support and participation, the NTTA would have never seen its aspiration come to life on court and be such a success.
In Washington, White House Press Secretary Karen Jean-Pierre, while responding to questions on the military exercises hosted by Russia, said the US has voiced its concerns. “The United States has concerns about any country exercising with Russia while Russia wages an unprovoked, brutal war against Ukraine. But, of course, every participating country will make its own decisions. And I’ll leave it at that,” she told reporters aboard Air Force One on Tuesday.When she was specifi cally asked why “not put any pressure on India”, Jean-Pierre said, “My first sentence there is saying that we have concerns over any country exercising with Russia while Russia is waging this unprovoked war.”When the reporter further asked if the US planned to take any action or do anything about it, the press secretary said, “I don’t have anything else to share.”“But we have -- we have been pretty public -- I’ve been asked this ques tion with other countries as well, and we’ve been pretty consistent in our state ments,” she said. There were no imme diate comments from the Indian Army or the Min istry of Defence in New Delhi on the participation of Indian soldiers at the Vostok-2022 military exer cises in Russia.

The four-time US Open champion, compet ing here for the first time since he clinched the title in 2019, has won 19 of his past 20 matches at the season’s final Grand Slam. Nadal’s next oppo nent will be Fognini. The Italian had rallied from two sets down against the 22-time Slam champion in New York in 2015, though the Spaniard leads the head-to-head 13-4. Fognini battled past Aslan Karatsev of Rus sia 1-6, 5-7, 6-4, 6-1, 6-4 after three hours and 34 minutes.Hijikata showed no stage fright inside the famed Arthur Ashe Sta dium, playing aggressively to keep Nadal from domi nating the action. This was Nadal’s sec ond match since Wimble don, where he pulled out before the semifinal due to an abdominal injury. The Spaniard had lost his opening match at the West ern & Southern Open in Cincinnati against eventual champion Borna Coric.
