KOHIMA, NOV 11 (NPN): Following appeals and writ petitions filed before the Gauhati High Court, Kohima bench by several aggrieved graduate teachers, Nagaland government has finally decided to promote most of the graduate teachers (GTs) as assistant headmasters (AHMs) and Junior Education Officers (JEOs)

by December 2016.

When contacted, commissioner and secretary of School Education F.P. Solo confirmed this to Nagaland Post on Friday, saying the state government will go ahead with the promotion “though the case was pending in the court”.

He said despite information given to the graduate teachers to submit Annual Performance Assessment Report (APAR) on many occasions, many had failed to comply with the request.

However, he said the government will go ahead with promotion for those teachers who had submitted their APAR. Solo was optimistic that it will be done by the end of this year.

On the non-appointment of headmasters in various

schools, Solo said since those schools which do not have headmasters were of RMSA upgraded and moreover the enrolment was low.

In this regard AHMs were appointed to run the affairs of the school, he added.

On non-payment of salaries to Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) Hindi teachers, Solo clarified that the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) has not released the money yet.

He said MHRD has submitted the proposal to the finance ministry, but the latter was yet to release the fund. He expressed helplessness that it was not within the state government’s control, but “what was to be done from the end of the state government, it was done”.

When asked on the CSS Hindi teachers that ends on March 31, 2017, Solo said the scheme was for five years only which ends March next however, he said that the state government had taken up with ministry to continue the scheme beyond 2017.

He said CSS Hindi teachers was a small scheme confined only to four states-

Nagaland, Mizoram, Punjab and Orissa. Since, Nagaland and Mizoram have huge numbers of CSS Hindi teachers, F.P. Solo said that both states have taken up the issue with the ministry and the response has been awaited.

On RMSA teachers, who have not received salary for four months, Solo said state government has submitted all the required documentations to the ministry.

He said after completing all formalities, the department deputed two officials to Delhi to pursue on the matter.

On SSA teachers, Solo said the state government will keep its commitment and will release all the pending salaries within this month.

Meanwhile, Graduate teachers who were junior in service but reportedly promoted earlier than those who joined service before them, through a notification issued by the Department of School Education on August 16, 2012 filed writ petitions against the department for reversing seniority in favour of the latter who were promoted as per the notification issued on July 1,2014. After hearing the

PIL a threat on Art.371(A): Dr. Imtiwapang Correspondent

MOKOKCHUNG, NOV 11 (NPN): Parliamentary secretary of geology and mining, Dr. Imtiwapang Aier, on Friday said the Nagas needed to seriously understand, uphold and protect the contents of Article 371 (A), saying infringement of special provision granted to Nagaland could lead to a bleak future for the Nagas.

He was speaking to the media persons at his residence at Sungratsu village about the recent counter affidavit submitted to the Gauhati High Court, Kohima Bench by the secretary, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas to a PIL hearing on oil exploration.

Dr. Imtiwapang highlighted the Para. 9 of the counter affidavit, which disagreed that the state of Nagaland has any power to make law for the subject of development of oil fields

and mineral oil resources.

According to him, the affidavit has further submitted that the Parliament has got exclusive power to make laws on the said subject, adding that Article 371(A) does not even restrict the Parliament to apply any of its law on oil fields and mineral oil resources in the State of Nagaland and no resolution from the state of Nagaland is required to apply the Parliament’s law on oil fields and mineral oil resources of Nagaland. Further, the counter affidavit argued that any existing law made by the state of Nagaland on oil fields and mineral oil resources is liable to be struck down the same being without jurisdiction and ultra vires to the constitution of India.

Citing Article 371(A), Dr. Imtiwapang said through this special provision, the state government of Nagaland had the right to pass and enact ‘Nagaland Petro-

leum and Natural Gas Regulations and Rules 2012’.

However, he said the PIL against the State Government’s Regulations and Rules 2012 was proving to be a threat to the special provisions.

Dr. Imtiwapang, therefore, made a clarion call to all the Nagas to remain united and offer solidarity to the state government to fight for Naga rights. “Let the issue be settled politically, not legally,” he stated.

Pointing out that that Article 371(A) came into being through the ‘16-Point Agreement’, the parliamentary secretary said Nagaland has already been quashed two special status of the agreement, by the Government of India, without the state’s knowledge. He said the clause of ownership and transfer of land and its resources, as enshrined in Article 371(A), was under threat.

counsels for both parties including the state government, the Kohima Bench of Gauhati High Court in a order passed by learned judge Hon’ble Justice L.S. Jamir on May 16, 2016 ruled that the mistake in preparing the seniority list by the department “does not confer any right to any party and can be corrected” while referring to an earlier judgment of the Supreme Court.

In the light of the facts and circumstances, the learned Judge stated that he did not find any infirmity in the notification dated July 1, 2014 and therefore dismissed the petitions in favour of the respondents.

The matter relates to those appointed as graduate teachers during 1992 and those who were appointed prior to the period from 1983 to 1989. Those appointed during 1992 were promoted and listed as senior to the latter as per the August 16, 2012 notification.

However, when the department rectified the matter by promoting those appointed during 1983-89, through another notification dated July 1, 2014, those affected by it went to court.

IBAPWO wants timely completion of works in border

D I M A P U R , N OV 1 1 (NPN): International Border Area People’s Welfare Organisation (IBAPWO) has appealed to those contractors who were awarded works to be carried out along the Myanmar border under Phomching, Chen, Tobu, Noklak, Thonoknyu, Pongru and Meluri blocks to complete their respective work within the stipulated time. In a press release, IBAPWO president Rhuletsu Whurr and general secretary Nokshom Konyak warned against non execution of work within the specific period without valid reason.

It termed as “illegal” drawing of crores of rupees without the execution or spot verification by the concerned authority.

IBAPWO asserted that it would “not allow such

ACAUT slams Dr. Shurho for attempt to violate OM-2008 D I M A P U R , N OV 1 1 (NPN): ACAUT on Friday criticized NPF president and DAN chairman Dr. Shurhozelie Liezietsu after it claimed to have obtained a letter purportedly written by the latter instructing the chief minister and cabinet ministers not to “tinker” on the existing controversial Office Memorandum (OM) 2008 (regularization of contract/adhoc appointments on completion of three years in service).

ACAUT media cell alleged that in the letter dated March 28, 2016, the patriarch of the NPF party cautioned the chief minister and the entire cabinet that, “if we abruptly change the course, more than 1000 people will go against you in your next election like 1993 episode where more than 800 senior people went against us on the issue of superannuation of age.”

Therefore, ACAUT said it was compelled to make public the contents of the letter since it would shatter the future of thousands

of educated unemployed Naga youths. Incidentally, the letter was issued in the midst of a raging court case on PILs filed by ACAUT against backdoor appointments.

ACAUT’s argument was that since the letter written by top leader of the NPF party could not be ignored, the government re-issued a new OM on August 11, 2016 (regularization of contract employees after three years) because the previous OM of June 6, 2016 (ban on backdoor appointment) had nullified the OM of 2008. Under the new OM, the government had regularized thousands of backdoor appointments made prior to June 6, 2016, media cell alleged.

ACAUT media cell said it was painful that a senior leader like Dr. Shurhozelie, “whom many Nagas considered him as a statesmanlike figure and in the twilight of his illustrious political career, could ostensibly put his party interest before the interest of young

Nagas when he should be primarily concerned on his contribution towards the benefit of Nagas as a whole”.

In the light of the above, ACAUT appealed Dr. Shurhozelie to instruct his government to withdraw the August 11 OM, so that tens of thousands of contract posts would be freed for competitive examination and thousands of meritorious and hard-working young Naga people would be benefitted.

It may be mentioned that Kohima bench of Gauhati High Court in its order on August 5, 2016 while disposing PIL filed

by ACAUT, directed the state government to “scrupulously” adhere to the criteria laid down by its June 6, 2016, OM with regard to appointment in government offices. On June 6, the state government (Personnel & Administrative Reforms Department) in an OM banned all ad-hoc/casual/ temporary/work-charged appointments.

D I M A P U R , N OV 1 1 (NPN): NSCN/GPRN celebrated the 87th birth anniversary of its former Yariuwo late Isak Chishi Swu with pomp and gaiety here at CHQ Hebron on Friday under the theme “Forgiveness, Love & Peace.”

The theme was derived from the late Yariuwo’s appeal, “Peace is the need of the hour. Everyone is yearning for peace yet, somehow it is illusive because there is lack of forgiveness and love

among the Naga people. If only we have forgiveness in the hearts of every Naga people, peace will prevail.”

Kilo kilonser NSCN/ GPRN, Rh. Raising in his opening remark said birthday celebration was only feasting if it does not talk about a message one brings with.

He remarked that late Isak came with the message of freedom, forgiveness, love and peace- truly a man of God, and that late “Isak was one of the strong advocates of Nagalim for

Christ”. “‘Nagalim for Christ’ is not about a romantic slogan of man, it is a covenant of God with the Nagas. Ino Isak believed in the lordship of Jesus over Nagalim,” Raising stated.

The kilo kilonser also highlighted the achievements and progress made

by NSCN/GPRN under the leadership of late Isak.

“He died a martyr for what he believed. He came into the world empty handed, but went back with a basket full of trophies. He

came with a mission and went with a big name in history,” Raising concluded.

Also speaking on the occasion, wife of late Isak and now executive member steering committee, Eustar Chishi Swu expressed gratitude to the CNC and the NSCN for shouldering the responsibility in organizing the programme.

She narrated how late Isak took the revolutionary path by choosing to respond to the call of the Naga nation rather than pursuing theological studies abroad.

Eustar stated that her late husband stood for unity/reconciliation of Nagas till his last breath.

She questioned whether Nagas were standing on the will of God and warned that Nagas will perish if they do not follow the path of the Lord. In her concluding remark, Eustar appealed for unity among the Nagas.

public service schemes in remote and backward districts of NorthEast (NE) states of India’ covers 7 backward districts across 5 NE states including Wokha in Nagaland. It aims to encourage demand for improved service delivery, improved access to and quality of public services particularly for the most marginalized and women, and to enhance transparency of service providers for 10 central government flagship schemes: IAY, JSSK, ICDS, MDM, MGNREGA, RKVY, NBA/TSC, RGGVY, NSAP, and TPDS. Interestingly, the survey revealed that TV was the most popular medium used to create awareness about NBA, and that this information so disseminated helped more than 80% of beneficiary families to understand the benefits and bad effects of having and not having a toilet in their households.

The survey also revealed that 20% of beneficiaries felt there was a need to improve quality of construction materials; only 20% of inspected toilets were locked; 30% did not have a light bulb inside the toilets; 50% had water facility within the

premises, indicating possible usage; and 90% had a clear path that was easy to walk on, indicating the toilet was being used.

The project is being implemented by Paris-based French NGO Agency for Technical Cooperation and Development (ACTED) along with Guwahati-based North East India Committee on Relief and Development (NEICORD) which in partnership with local NGO Team Metamorphosis (TM) is responsible for field implementation, Bangalore-based Public Affairs Center (PAC) which is tasked with the research component, and the Guwahati-based Nanda Talukdar Foundation (NTF) as its media advocacy component. NBA, previously called Total Sanitation Campaign, is a community-led total sanitation programme initiated by Ministry of Rural Development in 1999 (under PHE department in Nagaland). NBA is a comprehensive programme to ensure sanitation facilities in rural areas with the broader goal of eradicating the practice of open defecation. The scheme provides for promotion of a range of toilet op-

tions to promote increased affordability. Strong emphasis is also placed on Information, Education and Communication (IEC). NBA is implemented in a campaign mode, taking Village Council/Gram Panchayat as the base unit.

All BPL households and those APL households belonging to SCs/STs, small and marginal farmers, landless labourers with homestead, differently abled persons and women-headed households are eligible to get benefits under NBA. All houses constructed by beneficiaries under IAY or state rural housing schemes which do not have toilets are also eligible to get incentive for creation of sanitation facilities.

Entitlements under NBA include provision of Individual Household Latrine (IHHL) @ Rs.12,000/-, and part-financing of IHHL construction. The incentive is given in cash after beneficiaries complete their toilet constructions. There is also a provision for convergence under MGNREGA @ of Rs.4500/- covering 20 unskilled and 6 skilled man-days.

People in queues at SBI Bazar branch Dimapur. (NP) Staff Reporter

D I M A P U R , N OV 1 1 (NPN): Two days after banks opened following the government decision to declare Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 notes as illegal, the number of people running to the banks to exchange their demonetised notes has evidently increased if one goes by the long queues outside SBI banks and ATMs in Dimapur on Friday.

Hit by the sudden demonetisation, hundreds of Dimapurians were seen lined up in long queues especially outside state owned State Bank of India (SBI) branches and ATMs. A security guard in one of the SBI bank told Nagaland Post that the number

of the people has increased on day two, adding that people have been standing in long queues from morning hours before the bank opened.

One person who, according to him, has been waiting in the queue for more than five hours also made the same observationthat the number has been increasing rather than decreasing with people rush-

ing to the banks mainly to exchange demonetised notes and also for deposit and other transactions.

However, private banks operating in the city seem to remain largely unaffected by the move as few people were seen in outside such banks.

Meanwhile, in a big relief to people hit by sudden demonetisation, banks will remain open both on Saturday and Sunday.

Centre to invest more time, energy, finance in NE: Prabhu

Aizawl, Nov 11 (PTI): Northeastern states, especially Mizoram, required better infrastructure and the Centre would invest more time, energy and finance towards it, Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu said today.

Pointing out that rail connectivity would be one of the most important infrastructure development, the minister said, basic concepts of developments should be initiated by the local people and any infrastructural development should involve and benefit the local populace. The minister was addressing a function held at the Suaka Cricket Stadium at Sairang.

Bamboo resources in the state should be exploited by creation of value addition for which rail connectivity would play an important role in social transformation, he added.

Manipur hit hard by economic blockade; demonetisation

essential commodities like potato, onion, oils, egg etc which depends on shipping from outside the states were out of the markets.

Petrol and LPG had already been out of stock in IOC’s oil depots even though some oil pumps were distributing diesel.

Petrol is still available in the black market at sky rocketed price.

The rate has been increased to Rs 220 per litre at some places even though it was sold at Rs 200 a litre till Thursday. However, the number of black marketers is seen reducing today.

Unable to afford the much hiked petrol, vehicles transporting students have stopped their services from Friday. Owing to this, normal functioning of the schools here in Imphal has been severely affected.

All Manipur School Students’ Transporter Association (AMSSTA) has decided to suspend school van service from today (Friday) onward until the petrol is available in the pumps.

In a statement, AMSSTA said that transporters have been managing school van service despite economic blockade. However, they could not afford to buy petrol from black market.

The new 50.38 km line originates from MizoramAssam border Bairabi town and terminates at the proposed Sairang station, about 12 km from the lone Lengpui airport.

The broad gauge railway would have 23 tunnels (the longest being 1,766 metres), 38 major bridges and six tall bridges (the tallest being 117 metres) and four stations.

The Rs 2,384.34 crore project is scheduled to be completed by 2020 while the Northeast Frontier Railway officials expressed hope that the work would be completed by December 2019.

New Delhi, Nov 11 (PTI): Government can organise a rally in a few days, but “takes years to implement our orders,” the National Green Tribunal today said, warning Assam government that its Chief Secretary will be sent to jail if its orders on animal deaths in Kaziranga due to accidents on the highway there are not complied with.

It slammed the state government over the large number of animal deaths in the Kaziranga National Park due to traffic movement on the National Highway-37 that passes through the home of the famous

The Railway Minister told a press conference in Aizawl that export of bamboo products and handicraft from the region to the rest of the country would be given priority, while North East Integrated Tourism Development Programme would boost tourism in the area.

The Ministry of Railways has already conducted a survey to connect southernmost Mizoram’s Hmawngbuchhuah area near Myanmar border.

This was being done for establishing a link with the road constructed under the Kaladan Multi Modal Transport Project linking Sittwe port in Myanmar.

This would make Mizoram the gateway to Asian countries.

Nor theast Frontier Railway officials said land acquisition for the ongoing construction of broad gauge line between Bairabi and Sairang has been almost completed except for additional land acquisition of about 40 hectares.

The broad gauge train service between Bairabi and Sairang would include both freight and passenger trains, they said.

IMPHAL, Nov 11: Manipur has been hit hard by the ongoing economic blockade on the national highways and Centre’s decision to demonetise Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes.

Going to bank to exchange their old notes added to the woes of the people of the state who were facing non-availability of essential commodities including petrol and cooking gas (LPG) triggered by the indefinite economic blockade on the national highways in Manipur.

The UNC sponsored economic blockade, which had entered 11 days on Friday, has not only reduced petrol and LPG to zero stock but also day to day need household commodities.

At the same time, vehicles transporting students stayed of the road after nonavailability of petrol.

In the prevailing situation, almost all members of each family are caught in the midst as whether they would go to bank to exchange of their old notes or to go to market in search of daily needs or they would go to drop their wards to school.

Leaving aside the price,

present assured the bench that requisite steps would be taken with regard to the safety of animals and to implement the directions passed by the NGT. The tribunal’s direction came during a hearing on a plea filed by environmentalist Rohit Choudhury opposing the expansion of NH-37 which passes from Jakhalabandha to Bokakhat through the Kaziranga Park.

The NGT had ordered demolition of roadside shops and eateries along the animal corridors near Kaziranga, among a slew of directions in the wake of increasing wildlife ca-

Gauhati High Court had stayed the order on demolishing shops and dhabas located within 100 metres of NH-37.

Guwahati traders beat demonetization effect

GUWAHATI, Nov 11 (Agencies): The demonetization effect failed to have any impact on panwallahs and vendors in the local markets as they have chosen to swim against the tide by continuing to accept Rs 500 and Rs 1000 currency notes.

These small traders, who earn their livelihood on a daily basis, shutting shop for even a day is a costly affair. “We can’t afford to disrupt our daily income and need to keep doing business. We don’t have too many choices for which we are accepting Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes,” said Jyoti Nath, a roadside pan shop owner.

The uninterr upted trading is between the wholeseller or his selling agents and the vendors. “This morning, I needed to buy cigarettes and tobacco in bulk and I had to offer Rs 1000 notes to the wholeseller. I had no option if I had to keep my regular customers. The wholeseller, too, had to accept Rs 1000 notes as he has to sell his goods to the retailers,” said Nath. Amod Singh, a vegetable-seller at the busy Ganeshguri market which is known for its rich customer base, said all the vendors in the market have taken a collective decision to accept demonetized notes till December 30.

also witnessed exchange of agreements in wide range of sectors,� Swarup said in another tweet.

A memorandum of cooperation (MoC) was signed between India’s Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship and Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry on the manufacturing skill transfer promotion programme.

It envisages training 30,000 Indian youths in the Japanese styled manufactur-

ing in the next 10 years.

This would be achieved through the programmes of Japan-India Institute for Manufacturing (JIM) and the Japanese Endowed Courses (JEC) in select engineering colleges, according to the External Affairs Ministry.

Japanese companies would be encouraged to set up JIM by utilising their CSR fund while JEC will be supported by the Japanese government through tech-

nical experts. Programmes under this MoC would contribute to the Indian government’s flagship programmes, Make in India and Skill India.

A memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed between ISRO and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) on cooperation in the field of outer space.

It provides for cooperation in satellite navigation, planetary exploration and space industry promotion; joint missions and studies; joint use of ground systems for mutual support; joint workshops and training; and personnel exchange.

(From p-1) One of the aggrieved teachers alleged that there were numerous discrepancies that have gripped the School Education department. For instance, the teacher said there are 347 High Schools in Nagaland including 147 upgraded High Schools under RMSA. However, more than 160 schools have no headmasters to run the school, which is directly affecting the future of the students, the teacher pointed out.

While not denying that the department may be facing issues to post headmasters, the teacher however said it was a clear indication of rampant corruption in the department at the cost of the innocent children.

All these problems was clearly shown in the pathetic 2016 HSLC results where 30 government schools had nil results while the total pass percentage was around 32.81% only. The teacher also pointed out that the department has been facing litigations due its failure to address the needs of the teachers in a fair manner without any prejudice.

2 die in country-wide rush to junk banned notes

People queue outside Bank of India to exchange their old Rs 500 and 1000 notes in New Delhi on Friday. (PTI)

MUMBAI/THALASSERY (KER), NOV 11 (PTI): The scramble by millions of panicked consumers to exchange banned currency or deposit them turned tragic today when two people died in separate incidents in Maharashtra and Kerala amid chaos and confusion for the second straight day with poor cash flow.

As banks across the country struggled to contain serpentine queues since early morning, Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi took people by surprise when he visited SBI’s Parlia-

ment Street branch in Delhi to exchange banned notes with new ones, in a show of solidarity with increasingly impatient people.

There were no signs of immediate relief even as several cash-strapped people were told to go back after bank servers at several branches reportedly collapsed while several ATMs went dry in a few hours.

People who were able to exchange the old currency could get hold of the new notes only after waiting for several hours.

Vishwanath Vartak, 73, who was standing in

the queue before an SBI branch for exchanging currency, collapsed and died on the spot at Navghar in Mulund in eastern suburbs, police said.

Vartak had been standing for hours in the queue to exchange Rs.1000 and Rs.500 denomination notes.

Though he was rushed to hospital by some people who saw him collapse, he was declared dead before admission, police said.

In another incident, a 48-year old man, who came to deposit Rs five lakh worth scrapped high denomination notes in a bank

People in Delhi had a harrowing time like in other parts of the country as they stood in long queues for several hours outside banks to exchange their demonetised Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes with new ones even as many of ATMs had not stocked up cash. “I had been saving money but it wasn’t of any use since all of them were in Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denominations. My only hope after surviving two days without cash was that the ATMs will be operational from today, but owing to many of the ATMs being closed, I had to borrow money from my neighbours,� said Delhi homemaker Sunita Dass.

Ajeet Singh, a media professional in Mumbai, said when he went to an ATM in suburban Andheri, he found it closed and was told by a bank executive to come after an hour or two. “When I went to exchange demonetised notes with new ones, I was told that the bank has not received the money yet and it would start exchanging it at 4 PM only,� he said.

After finding some ATMs in Mumbai not dispensing cash, Charles Asirvatham, an executive of a Malaysia-based company, took the twitter route to express his anguish.

Manohar Parrikar tion was whether one will “force it down the throat� or get everyone on board. “I think, I have been discussing with the chiefs and slowly they have also come to understanding that jointness would be much better than individually separate forces,� he said, seeking a “few more months�.

However, the Defence Minister made it clear that the final call would be taken by the Prime Minister.

Incidentally, the chiefs of both the Army and the Air Force will retire this year end.

Without naming any

operation, he said though India has not gone for jointness, “recent operations� were quite successful joint operations. “The Air Force and the Army integrated so well in recent operations, not saying which operation. There was total synergy and there was no problem in working together,� he remarked.

The post of CDS was recommended in 2001 by a Group of Ministers (GoM) which was set up in April 2000 to review the national security system in the aftermath of the Kargil War. The recommendation, if implemented, would be the first major military reform by the Narendra Modi government, which has already announced significant changes in the procurement process.

Sources said the appointment of CDS is aimed at promoting “jointness at the top� when it comes to planning, operations and modernisation of the military.

in Thalassery in Kerala, died after he fell down from the second floor of a building. Unni, a Kerala State Electricity Board employee, was filling the necessary forms to deposit the amount in the State Bank of Travancore’s branch, located in the first floor, when the mishap occurred, they said quoting preliminary information.

He had unsuccessfully tried to deposit the notes yesterday and came to the bank again this morning.

Running out of money for the last two days, men and women across the country had thronged the ATMs since early morning while in many places, to their disappointment, they found the machines not working.

Police was also called in to help banks control the angry depositors whose patience wore thin after standing in long queues. “People are facing hardships. That’s why I have come to join them. I am here to exchange my Rs 4,000 with new notes,� Rahul Gandhi told reporters. “Neither you (reporters) nor your crorpati owners nor Prime Minister will understand the problems faced by people.�

The Congress leader, who reached the SBI’s Parliament Street branch at around 4.25 PM, waited for his turn in queue to exchange his old notes. “I waited for an hour in the queue and minutes before my turn the ATM was already down. My biggest problem is buying groceries and paying for other petty expenses,� said 35-year-old housewife Aditi Saha in Kolkata. Even the

NEW DELHI, NOV 11 (PTI): The Defence Ministry could in the next “few months� finalise higher defence reforms to bring in jointness among the three armed services which will include creation of the post of Chief of Defence Staff (CDS).

Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar admitted that the services did not want to leave their “turf � but they have “slowly� come to understand that jointness would be much better than individual separate forces. “I am very clear on it but there were certain aspects which need to be also taken along. I have to take all the three services on board. Let me be very clear, no one wants to leave his turf,� he said during a book launch last night.

Underlining that he was not speaking in Indian military context alone, Parrikar said across the militaries, the same situation prevailed.

He added that the ques-

Trump card

verybody went against him- the elite establishment, the American liberal media, musicians, Hollywood, Blacks, Latinos, immigrants, Wall Street, US military industrialists, Silicon Valley, gays & lesbians, Leftists and socialists, feminists and even the Dalai Lama himself; but all of them couldn’t stop Donald Trump from winning the November 8,2016 US presidential election against their favourite – Hillary Rodham Clinton. All ( or almost all) of America had probably gone to bed on the night of November 7,2016 to with a feeling that they would greet the polling day with a sense of expecting a Hillary Clinton victory by a huge margin of around 300 electoral out of 538 votes. The entire establishment, the elites and media stars etc had already decided (and not predicted) that Hillary had won and said so during many talk shows. It will be too mild a word to say that the coverage of the entire campaign was biased against Trump. It would be more appropriate to say that the coverage of Trump during the entire campaign was brutally hostile. He was cursed and called many names in the media. However the deprived, lower middle class, jobless, women and African-Americans and small entrepreneurs and those who supported Trump’s bold and at times, radical pledges, responded by voting for the rank outsider by a tally of 228 for Hillary and 279 for Trump. The 2016 presidential race will be the low-water mark of impartiality in the American mainstream media visa-vis the First Amendment. Never before have so many media organizations, old and new, abandoned all pretence of fairness to take sides with Hillary Clinton and try to pick a president. Women TV hosts and political commentators fell in love with the narrative of Hillary becoming America’s first female president. It’s a milestone most journalists thought was long overdue-and a story few were able to resist.

While the media damned Trump even for remarks made among friends as far back as ten to twenty years ago, they never asked Hillary about why she lied to the House Committee when questioned about the gravest offence she committed as Secretary of State in handling classified and confidential government documents through private servers. Any other would have been thrown to prison for such and offence. The damning Wikileaks mails about Hillary were totally ignored by the media. What Trump had pledged about illegal immigrants and confronting radical Islam were also expressed by several US presidents. However, when Trump said it he was damned as divisive, racist and xenophobic.

Besides losing the election, the Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton also lost the opportunity to unify people when she did not speak out when protestors condemned Trump’s election. The media too incited people by exposing a classic case of the American media suffering from self-inflicted Trumpophobia. For those who thought highly of the American ideals of democracy, it was painful to see protestors condemning their own president-elect and saying he was not their president. President Barack Obama did not say a word even on the second day of the protests when they became violent. The rosy words of Hillary when she conceded defeat and Obama when he welcomed Trump to the White House to “work together” exposed the hypocrisy of the liberals which the average ordinary Americans voted against.

DailyDevotion The Supreme Climb He said, “Take now your son…” —Genesis 22:2 God’s command is, “Take now,” not later. It is incredible how we debate! We know something is right, but we try to find excuses for not doing it immediately. If we are to climb to the height God reveals, it can never be done later— it must be done now. And the sacrifice must be worked through our will before we actually perform it.

“So Abraham rose early in the morning…and went to the place of which God had told him” (Genesis 22:3). Oh, the wonderful simplicity of Abraham!

When God spoke, he did not “confer with flesh and blood” (Galatians 1:16). Beware when you want to “confer with flesh and blood” or even your own thoughts, insights, or understandings— anything that is not based on your personal relationship with God. These are all things that compete with and hinder obedience to God. Abraham did not choose what the sacrifice would be. Always guard against self-chosen service for God. Self-sacrifice may be a disease that impairs your service. If God has made your cup sweet, drink it with grace; or even if He has made it bitter, drink it in communion with Him. If the providential will of God means a hard and difficult time for you, go through it. But never decide the place of your own martyrdom, as if to say, “I will only go to there, but no farther.” God chose the test for Abraham, and Abraham neither delayed nor protested, but steadily obeyed. If you are not living in touch with God, it is easy to blame Him or pass judgment on Him. You must go through the trial before you have any right to pronounce a verdict, because by going through the trial you learn to know God better. God is working in us to reach His highest goals until His purpose and our purpose become one.

Post-mortem

Education department needs reformation

A

s an agg rieved teacher who had to participate in the First and Second phase of NSSATA Agitation on account of non-payment of salary for 6 months, coming back to class now after missing nearly a month, inclusive of Durga Puja Holidays etc, my heart is heavy, mind busy and I am totally trapped in the process of imparting the best knowledge to the students as deserved by them.

But unfor tunately, although I am able to complete the Syllabus as required, yet, a sense of dissatisfaction lies within my soul since fasttrack completion of the syllabus is not sufficient enough for a true teacher to declare 100% satisfaction.

To the Government who pays my salary regularly or irregularly, I can submit my performance record as satisfactory but to the King in Heaven above, I cannot truthfully justify that I did my duty to the fullest.

Now, coming to that, please do not limit your judgement to the fact that Teachers’ agitation alone is the cause of my grievances.

We received textbooks late - only in the last week of April. Before we received it, we tried arranging old books and taught with it but since we could not arrange for all the students, it did

not serve the desired purpose. So, classes started full swing albeit with textbooks on the desk only by May. Certain subject textbooks having as many as 23 lessons were never received by the students even till today.

With summer vacation for a month, we hardly had 5 months to do justice for the students. But tell me, how can any teacher impart quality education without textbooks and salary for months delayed altogether?

How can the students learn this way when everything has to be dumped on them within a limited period of time? We are talking about Education and the process of learning; not food that one can digest even if chewed in hurry. I bear a guilty conscience for wasting their academic year like this. But this blame and responsibility is collective.

As a teacher and a mother, I feel the greatest pain for the students from Eastern Nagaland who come out from their villages leaving behind their childhood and their families to work as helpers in people’s house with a dream to atleast receive education but end up in the vicious cycle of such rotten and rejected quality of Education. We as Elders, as Citizens and most importantly as fellow human beings are grievously

punishing them for no fault of theirs and destroying a generation which will only be a by-product of such a rotten system, should we so remain mere silent spectators indifferent to this issue just because our children study in expensive private schools and not Govt shools.

This problem is not the problem of mere SSA or RMSA teachers but is inclusive of all the teachers whose schools received textbooks late in April only.

Just because they are not writing or are getting paid regularly does not mean they will deny this fact. I am sure any sincere teacher will agree to this fact that cries out the injustice served to the Government School students.

This academic year is ending but we still have 2017 to welcome. I humbly request the Government and all the student bodies to kindly check and deliver a system of Education where such undue injustice and harassment does not occur in future. Please do come and check teachers keeping proxies, Midday Meals and teachers’ quality of teaching also. Sadly, numerous announcements and press releases on such issues were read in the Newspapers many a time but the real problem at the grassroot level needs to be seen and

felt to understand the effects on the innocent students who are the end-receivers of such issues that plague the education system.

A nation may delay infrastructural development but Human Resource Development should not be delayed and compromised.

Neglecting the students’ academic life will bring disaster for the State in future. SSA and RMSA teachers are now debtridden teachers, not just to shop keepers but also our tithes which have piled up! “Modern slaves are not bound in chains but in debts” is how a famous saying goes and as such the affected teachers can be accurately described as “modern slaves” forcefully given birth to by the Govt due to its apathy.

Teachers’ irregular salary is not just an issue of empty sugar and salt containers at the homes of the affected teachers but is a grave issue of the defective quality of the education system in our State which needs to be seriously checked. The entire system is in need of an overhaul with corrective measures formulated and implemented for the future of the children and the welfare of the Society as a whole.

Kuknalim!

AFRAU on protection activities scenario at Pangti Village

T

hat, the protection of the international species Amur Falcon’s at Pangti Village is solely taking responsibility by the union called The Amur Falcon Roosting Area Union/land owners union with some incentives/help from the Forest department and till date the union did not receive any acknowledgement nor helps/ volunteers from the Village Council. As such, the union requests all agencies/Tourist to kindly cooperate/intimates with its land owners union while visiting the roosting place in order to have a quality view of the birds That, as recorded in the union register in the reception point, till 10th Nov 2016, there are 405 distinguished visitiors including domestic /foreign tourists visited the roosting area. The first VIP visitor was Sir. Apok Pongener, Working President NPF Central & political advisor to Chief Minister Nagaland with his team on 23rd Oct 2016, followed by the ranking officers, the Satellite tagging team led by Dr.Suresh Kumar from Wildlife Institute of India along with the DFO Wokha Zuthunglo Patton IFS and DFO Doyang Lhingoikim Touthang IFS and NGOs team headed by Panou Harlu director NWBCT. The union takes immense pride in welcoming, the Governor of Nagaland, his Excellency Sir, PB.Acharya for Visiting the Roosting place in spite of the pathetic road and weather conditions 0n 07thNov evening and 08thNov 2016 at around 06:30am and witnessed the millions of birds roosting at one go.

The union acknowledged all the high profile visitors for bearing all the in convinces during their visit, the inputs provided and the grievances of the union, as his Excellency urges the need for development in the cited area of the birds. The union will highly be indebted if the said guidelines be put to work for the conservation and preservation of the species, which so happened to be called THE PRIDE OF NAGALAND and PANGTI as CAPITAL OF AMUR FALCON in the World.

Lastly, I on behalf of the Union welcome all bird lovers to the capital of Amur Falcon’s Pangti Village and kindly request all tourist to fallows the do’s and don’ts restricted by the union.

Zanthungo Shitiri, President AFRAU

Hats off to Nagaland Governor P.B. Acharya

I

was thrilled to see the previous morning papers making headlines of our Honourable Governor’s visit to Longwa and Pangti but at the same time lamenting on how things did not seem to be moving forward in Nagaland, in particular the lack of development around the Districts he recently visited and drawing upon the corrupt practices of the politicians, bureaucrats, contractors etc in the State. Such open and frank remarks by the Governor himself should be lauded and supported by all right thinking citizens. I could hardly see anyone raising a brow to the recent pension fraud of Rs. 100 plus crore in the Zunheboto District Treasury and Accounts Office that was brought out in one of the local Daily. I am sure most will agree that this is just the tip of the ice-berg and more can be brought to light if a thorough investigation is called not only to this particular case but also to a host of others pertaining to Centrally sponsored projects executed in the State. But can the

crooks really be booked is the big “B” Question? An old Assamese friend once reminded me with these few rather cynical words, “Noga manu toh bohut bhudi ase teh” (Nagas are very witty). Although, I am still an unemployed Naga youth, from what I hear from friends who works in different capacities in the Treasuries & Accounts Department are rather quiet revealing, which even if a probe is conducted will escape the eye. While the public do acknowledge the prompt services in areas such as pensions, GPFs, and also in the ‘smooth’ running of the State Finances, many are of the opinion that there exists the other side of the story to this Department.

It appears that the North Treasur y is the most coveted placement for any Senior Accounts Officer/Senior Treasury Officer/Treasury Officer wherein there is intense political lobby for one to be placed in such prospect branch. Finally, it is the officer who succeeds in pulling all his/her strings

together and after much boot-lickings that he/she gets this rare opportunity to begin churning their “Side Incomes” while at the same time becoming a puppet to the politicians who sided with them during the lobby.

Today, this so called “Side Income” has become the buzzword for many young officers who equally aspire to earn because of what their predecessors have put to practice, while a person with integrity who refuses to accept such tips are simply ridiculed saying, “APUNI TOH PAKALA ASE! (You are mad or a fool!). Such lobbies are apparent considering the majority of the State Department that comes under the North Treasury and such a coveted placement seems all the more reasonable due to the offering of “shares”.

Often in our frank discussions with friends we are told that such shares or percentages even if one rejects to accept are forcibly offered, therefore, justifying the fact that such a practice is not corruption.

Such shares are chalked out

Modiji’s version of Muhammad-Bin-Tughlaq

M

odiji’s decision to p u l l o u t r s. 5 0 0 and rs. 1000 currency notes and replacing it by even higher denomination of rs.2000 and rs.500 new note can evenly be traced back to the downfall of Delhi sultanate under Muhammad-binTughlaq. Modi and his govt, by following the political foot steps of Tughlaq will once again drag India into a poor state of downfall.

Here’s some reason why?

1. Modiji believes,his government alone as the sole law maker and no opposition be entertained. If any body dares will be detained or put in contempt just as Muhammadbin-Tughlaq believed that he was the shadow of God and he who obeys him truly obeys God and no man shall question his authority.

Note: In a democratic country, Dictatorial nature of govt has no place. It will

initiate discontentment among the general masses which will one day result in chaos.

2. The recent development of new currency note rs. 2000 and 500 is another experiment for Modiji and his govt for reason best to curb Black money just as M.b. Tughlaq introduced copper coins for many reasons notably, to augment the revenues which had considerably declined due to famine and harsh taxation policy in the region.

Note:Is there a need for experiment when a country is in Emergency? Introducing new currency isn’t the best solution to ease the factors arising out of emergency.

There’s always a better way if proper assessment to strategy are applied.

The big Question (?) what’s next is, the transfer of capital from Delhi to Gujarat??? When???

Anoto Chophy, Dimapur

well in advance within an exaggerated bill that a particular Department submits to the Treasury or there seems to be other witty means to keep the officer In-charge tight lipped.

The sudden amass of wealth and the massive palatial residential buildings and the flashy SUVs they ride are just too obvious. What is more, a few morsels of these “shares” are contributed to the Church where the Church too becomes an indirect victim of such practices.

The most absurd of all is that the Church blesses these individual for the donations that they receive from such sources. However, these “shares” are not confined to the Treasury Department alone. About half a decade ago, I tried hard to get an eco-tourism proposal routed through the State Government but gave up the idea learning that the so called “shares” begins from the topmost level down to the Minister or Parliamentary Secretary, then to the Commissioner& Secretary etc. till we are left with only a tiny morsel to

run the program. Certainly what more can we expect from the work if this is the case? Therefore dismayed with this entire state of the affair, I gave up all hope to pursue it any further.

Even if an RTI is filed against a particular Department, with such nature of corruption in practice which are confined within ‘soft murmurs & whispers’, unless the corruption cases are backdoor appointments or irregularities in the misuse of Departmental funds, such ‘whispers or murmurs’ will eventually escape the probe of a special investigation team unless a well-planned sting operation is secretly undertaken to bring all these “sheep coated wolves” to book. I understand people will continuously insist on documentary evidence to prove such “false allegations” made to a particular Department but it becomes a difficult task to prove such allegations when all seems supposedly presented right at least on a white piece of paper. Even if this effort to probe further fails, I am still humorously

reminded of what my Assamese friend remarked at the beginning.

In terms of road or public building constructions, in paper the work seems to have been well executed but one wonders how these bills come to be passed without assessing the quality of work undertaken.

The startling announcement by the Prime Minister on the demonetizing of Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 has also sent most corrupt individuals on the double.

I had phone calls from relatives and family friends suddenly asking for favours to help them deposit in the bank to the tune of Rs. 10 lakhs! These are just one dimension of corruption that plagues Nagaland and I hope our Honourable Governor will personally intervene in such corruption issues plaguing Nagaland and true to his fervent words “expose all corrupt people” irrespective of caste, clan, religion or tribes they belong to.

Reader’s Post

Sir,

Finally a Prime Minister who dared to act!

The latest development on demonetising of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes by our honourable PM should be highly appreciated. When we look at the larger perspective this move will go a long way in curbing the menace of black money among other evils. Just look at our State Nagaland.. with development taking a backseat.... There are tons and tons of black money stacked every where ( God knows where). And just by a simple act ( Masterstroke) , it has sent jitters to all those who have stacked moneys (Illegally). Cutting across politics, caste, creed and religion .... We should all appreciate this move. After all ... Finally We have got a Prime Minister who dared to act.......

Temsu Pongen, Dimapur

Sir,

A nutshell appreciation to Khekiye K. Sema

It is a matter of grave concern that at this juncture/crucial hour that when the Naga political solution is hovering above like a cloud signifying imminent downpour and when the general public are reeling under not only confusion and skepticism but also completely in the dark vis-à-vis the contents of the so-called Framework Agreement reached between Govt. of India and NSCN(IM) in 2016. Being a regular reader of local dailies as far as my observation is concerned, many Naga intellectuals prefer to remain aloof from the scene for one reason or the other the best known to them. Here, in my opinion, Mr. Khekeye Sema Retd. IAS deserves befitting appreciation for having the guts and unflinching daringness to speak out the truth and call spade a spade that enlightens the innocent public and keeps them abreast with the latest development of the Naga political journey. To wind up my short write-up, let it be known that this article/write-up is neither in favour nor against any Naga political groups.

Wishing him a prosperous future.

KVC condemns November 10 firing

DIMAPUR: Kohima Village Council (KVC) condemned in the strongest term the November 10 shootout incident at mission compound Kohima where some armed cadres repordetly shot one person in a shop within the close vicinity of Baptist high school.

In a condemnation note, chairman KVC, Medolselhou Keretsü stated that such news of fratricide among the Naga political groups often happen and despite condemnation by all peace loving citizens of Nagaland the groups have yet again shown norespect to the appeal or sentiment of the public.

KVC appealed to all the different Naga political groups to respect the call of the Naga public and refrain from killing one’s own brothers. Press statement stated that “there is no greater sin on earth than killing one’s own brother, it is not only a crime against humanity but it also the greatest sin before God”. The council

MUMBAI, NOV 11 (PTI): Tapping into the popular mood amid reports of public inconvenience following the Centre’s demonetisation move, Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray today said it amounted to “torture” of people as he dared the Prime Minister to conduct “surgical strikes” on Swiss banks to bring back black money.

“People have put immense faith in you (PM).

Do not betray their trust or you will see the impact of peoples’ surgical strike against you,” he told reporters here.

His comments came at a time when citizens are having a tough time to get cash from banks and ATMs after the government scrapped Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denomination notes, causing panic among people. “ I f yo u r m ove i s against corruption, we are with you, but not at the cost of troubling the common man. Your (Modi) sudden decision at a time when new notes are not available adequately, is proving to be a torture for people,” Udhav said.

the Bench and tried to show how the judges have gravely erred in acquitting the convict of the murder charge.

Katju said that the judges have not applied “common sense” in arriving at a decision that the victim was pushed to death as she jumped out of a slowrunning train in a semi-conscious state after the convict had inflicted head injuries on her.

The court had last month asked Justice Katju to appear and debate his Facebook post criticising the judgement by which the accused had escaped gallows in the Soumya rape case in which he was acquitted of murder charge.

The court had asked Justice Katju to appear in person before it to point out the “fundamental flaws” as claimed by him in the sensational Soumya rape case.

Subsequently Katju tweeted that he would be appearing before the court for the hearing on the review plea in the case.

Experts had said it was for the first time that the Supreme Court has asked its former judge to appear in person before it in connection with any matter.

DIMAPUR: Pochury Students’ Union (PSU) has vehemently condemned the “immature” act of one GPRN/NSCN ‘major’ Lopong who reportedly threatened chairman of Lüruri Development Council (LDC), Shapongtsü.

PSU through a press note by its president Er. Joyson Pfithu questioned the authority of the GPRN/NSCN on how such individual in the name of a nation worker has the authorization to threaten or murder any public leader in the mere interest of an individual.

The Union strongly appealed the authority of the GPRN/NSCN to investigate and take stern action against its cadre before any unwanted situation arises.

“We cannot tolerate such activities of our nation worker for self interest,” PSU stated.

Meanwhile, PSU said it support the Lüruri Students’ Union (LSU) in “taking the initiative of bringing out such unwanted activities that would hamper our peaceful living and a sense of insecurity under the hands of our national worker.”

The Union further appealed to all NPGs to restrain themselves from such activities and to keep vigilant upon its cadre like ‘Major’ Lopong so as to avoid unwanted incident/ accident and to let the innocent civilians live in peace and harmony.

Ranjan Gogoi pronounced the order as to why a contempt proceeding be not initiated against him for scandalising the judiciary.

The Supreme Court issued notice after taking the view of Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi who was shown a copy of the blog which he described as “scandalous”.

Taking note of this, the Bench said “we are issuing notice of contempt”. Taken aback Rohatgi said his view was restricted only to the underlined portion of what he was shown as he had not read the entire blog.

“I am changing my position and I am reading the entire page. The underlined portion is intemperate and nothing beyond,” he said.

When the Bench pointed to the other part of the Katju’s blog which was not underlined by it, Rohatgi said the second one is also intemperate. Justice Katju repeatedly said he has appeared before the Bench and it should not have threatened as he was also a senior to the judges on the bench.

However, before taking up the contempt issue, Justice Katju along with the Attorney General assisted

Gogoi asked, “is there somebody to escort Justice Katju (out)”. Katju replied, “What is this behaviour. On your request I came here.

Is this the way I am to be treated.”

However, the Bench continued with the dictation of the order saying that prima facie the statement (of Katju) constituted a serious assault on judges and not on judgement. Therefore a notice of contempt.”

The issue of contempt was raised after the bench had dismissed the review petitions filed by Kerala government and mother of Soumya challenging the acquittal of the convict of the murder charge.

Justice Katju was summoned as he in his blog had claimed that there was error in the judgement acquitting the accused for the murder and he was asked to assist the bench during the hearing of the review petition.

Addressing Justice Ranjan Gogoi, Justice Katju said a Supreme Court judge should not behave like this and it was like a threat to him. “Don’t try to be funny with me. I came on your request. Don’t treat me like this,” he said after Justice

SC issues contempt notice to Katju

NEW DELHI, NOV 11 (PTI): In an unprecedented action, the Supreme Court today issued notice of contempt to its former judge Markandey Katju for using “intemperate” language and “scandalising” judiciary as he appeared before a bench and had heated exchanges with it. A bench comprising justices Ranjan Gogoi, P C Pant and U U Lalit said Katju’s statement in a recent blog constituted a serious assault on judges and not on the judgement and therefore the notice of contempt to him.

Katju protested against the decision saying the judges were threatening him and it was not proper for them to behave in such manner with a former judge of the apex court.

“I am not scared of it.

Don’t give me threat,” the former judge remarked as Justice Gogoi pronounced the order in a surcharged atmosphere.

Justice Gogoi warned him saying “don’t provoke us any more” to which Katju said “you are provoking me by this type of threat. You requested me to come here and assist you.”

“The levy for an up to 1,000 kilometre length of scheduled flight will be Rs 7,500 per flight, Rs 8,000 for a 1,000 to 1,500 kilometre flight and Rs 8,500 for flights above 1,500 kilometre,” Choubey said here.

For UDAN, the government would be creating the Regional Connectivity Fund (RCF). With the levy, the government estimates to have Rs 400 crore for RCF, Choubey said. “In addition to this, another 20 per cent (funding) will come from state governments. We are roughly looking at around Rs 500 crore per year available in the kitty,” he noted.

The move would push airfares slightly higher as airlines are expected to pass on the burden to fliers.

One of the beneficiaries receiving loan from O.S.Meetei, AGM, NEDFi Head Office, Guwahati.

New Delhi, Nov 11 (PTI): Airfares are set to rise with the government deciding to levy up to Rs 8,500 per flight on major routes to fund the regional air connectivity scheme.

The levy amount would be for an entire flight and the price of each ticket could go up depending on the number of seats in that particular flight.

Civil Aviation Secretary R N Choubey today said the levy would be up to Rs 8,500 per flight depending on distance.

The ambitious scheme -- UDAN (Ude Desh ka Aam Naagrik) -- seeks to connect small cities by air as well as make flying more affordable for the masses.

To provide viability gap funding for the flights operated under the regional connectivity scheme, the Ministry would impose a levy on every departure on

said India’s prowess in software is complemented

by Japan’s strength in hardware. “Want to assure you that we will provide a levelplaying field,” he told the Japanese companies.

“India’s development needs are huge and substantial. We seek rapid achievement of our developmental priorities, but in a manner that is environment friendly. We want to build roads and railways in a faster way; we want to explore minerals and hydrocarbons in a greener way; we want to build homes and civic amenities in a smarter way; and we want to produce energy in a cleaner way,” he said.

In addition, Modi said, there are futuristic infrastructure projects of second generation which include the Dedicated Freight Corridor, the Industrial Corridors, High Speed Railways, Smart Cities, Coastal Zones and Metro Rail projects.

Modi, who is on his second visit here since becoming the Prime Minister in May 2014, said that in 2015, the Indian economy “grew faster than other major economies” and “the World Bank and IMF assess this trend to continue”.

He said lower labour costs, large domestic market and macro-economic stability combine to make India a very attractive investment destination.

Emphasising that his government is “pursuing a new direction of economic reforms”, the Prime Minister said his “resolve is to make India the most open economy in the world”.

Modi, who is on a threeday visit of Japan aimed at pushing the bilateral relations, said, “to those who are exploring (opportunities), I promise you that we are committed to further refine our policies and procedures to boost Make in India”.

“Today, India is on the path of several major transformations. We have taken decisive steps and built a governance system that will help India realise its potential. The results are already visible,” the Prime Minister told the luncheon session organised

by Japanese business chambers – Keidanren, Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Japan-India Business Forum. Noting that India’s development needs are “huge and substantial”, he said there are unprecedented opportunities for Japanese companies in the country.

Explaining why the Japanese companies should invest in India, he said: “Even against a weak international economic scenario, the news from India is of strong growth and abundant opportunities.

It is of incredible opportunities, and about India’s credible policies.”

Mumbai, Nov 11 (PTI): Sinking to its lowest level in over 4 months, benchmark Sensex today crashed about 699 points, its biggest single-day fall since February 11, to drop below the key 27,000-level on sustained foreign fund outflows combined with weakening trend globally.

Besides, the r upee breaching the 67-mark against the US dollar by plunging 59 paise to 67.22 (intra-day) at the forex market too had its bearing.

Offloading of positions by cautious participants ahead of September IIP data, to be released later in the day, also added to weakened sentiment.

Investors seemed to be cautious on fears that US President-elect Donald Trump’s planned huge spending policies would be inflationary which may lead to higher US interest rates and dent the appeal of emerging markets, equity brokers said.

The Sensex after opening lower at 27,344.85 continued to slide on heavy selling pressure in bluechips, forcing the index to touch a low of 26,777.18 before settling at 26,818.82, down 698.86 points, or 2.54 per cent, its biggest single-day fall since February 11 when it had lost 807.07.

Trump keeps scribes in dark on transition

to Trump on Wednesday, Moscow spread the word.

A phone call with British Prime Minster Theresa May was announced in London.

The pattern was repeated for calls with leaders of Israel, Egypt, South Korea and Australia. The White House typically releases statements on the president’s phone calls with foreign leaders, providing some details about the conversation. Past presidents-elect have had early briefings with journalists, even in confusing first hours after Election Day. But early signs suggest

Trump is willing to break protocol when it comes to press access and transparency.

As a candidate, Trump railed against the press as “disgusting” and “dishonest.” He refused to allow a pool of campaign reporters and photographers to fly on his plane to events, sometimes starting his rallies before his press corps had arrived. The practice did not extend to his running mate, Mike Pence, who was followed by a traditional pool of journalists. News organizations had tried for

weeks to coordinate a pool of journalists to travel with Trump immediately after Election Day if he won. The Associated Press is among those reaching out to Trump advisers about press access.

Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks said the president-elect’s team expects “to operate a traditional pool and look forward to implementing our plans in the near future.”

The White House Correspondents’ Association, which coordinates press pools and advocates for transparency at the White

Mystery debris lands in northern Myanmar, says state media

B’deshi patients hit by India’s demonetization

The cylindrical object, found on Thursday in Kachin state, is 4.5m (15ft) long and 1.2m wide.

L o n d o n , N ov 1 1 (Agencies): A large metal object has fallen from the sky into a jade mining area in north Myanmar, state media said. The cylindrical object, found on Thursday in Kachin state, is 4.5m (15ft) long and 1.2m wide.

Another piece of metal with Chinese writing on it tore through the roof of a nearby house at about the same time, but no injuries were reported.

It is thought it might be related to the launch of

a Chinese satellite the same day.

Local residents reported hearing a loud bang before the object landed.

Officials from the local Defence Service said it bounced 150ft (50m) and landed in a muddy area of the mine, according to the Global New Light of Myanmar newspaper.

“We were all afraid of that explosion,” villager Ko Maung Myo told the Myanmar Times. “Initially, we thought it was a battle. The

explosion made our houses shake. We saw the smoke from our village.”

He said that the air near the object smelled acrid.

“The metal objects are assumed to be part of a satellite or the engine parts of a plane or missile,” Global New Light reported.

But, the paper said, it “could not be confirmed whether the launch of the [Chinese] satellite and the metal objects found in Kachin State were related”.

New York, Nov 11 (Agencies): A second night of protests in the US against President-elect Donald Trump has turned violent in Portland, Oregon.

Several thousand demonstrators gathered in the centre of the western city.

Some smashed shop and car windows, threw firecrackers and set rubbish alight.

Police declared a riot and arrested 29 people. Protests in other US cities were smaller than on Wednesday.

Mr Trump earlier said in a tweet the demonstrations were unfair and had been incited by the media.

The protesters, mainly young people, say a Trump presidency would create deep divisions along racial and gender lines.

Police in Portland accused some demonstrators of carrying bats and arming themselves with rocks.

Objects were thrown at the police, who responded with pepper spray and rubber baton rounds.

The state of Oregon voted 51-41% in favour of Democrat Hillary Clinton in Tuesday’s election.

GE N EVA , N OV 1 1 (Agencies): ISIS fighters reportedly shot dead more than 60 people this week and hung some of their bodies from poles after alleging they had collaborated with Iraqi troops, the United Nations said Friday.

The UN human rights office has raised alarm over hundreds of grotesque atrocities allegedly committed by ISIS as Iraqi forces have pushed their nearly month-long offensive to retake Mosul, the last jihadist bastion in Iraq.

“On Tuesday, ISIS reportedly shot and killed 40 civilians in Mosul city after accusing them of ‘treason and collaboration’ with the Iraqi Security Forces (ISF),” rights office spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani said in a statement, using another acronym for the ISIS. “The victims were dressed in orange clothes marked in red with the words: ‘traitors and agents of the ISF’. Their bodies were then hung on electri-

cal poles in several areas in Mosul city,” she added.

Abu Saif, a resident of eastern Mosul, told AFP by telephone that he had seen bodies strung up in the city along with signs that read “agent” and “traitor”.

He did not have an exact count of the total number of bodies, but said he saw between 30 and 40.

“The Daesh organisation gathered people in some of the streets of Mosul and publicly executed a number of people of various ages, some of them by gunfire and others by beheading,” he said, using an Arabic name for ISIS. According to the UN, a 27-year-old man was reportedly killed in public in central Mosul Tuesday for using a mobile phone, which ISIS has banned in areas it controls.

And on Wednesday, ISIS slaughtered another 20 people at the Ghabat Military Base in northern Mosul after accusing them of “leaking information,” the UN statement said.

France and the US and underscored the solidarity shown by Americans during a series of jihadist attacks on French soil over the past two years.

“Each time the American people were by our side,” he said, adding: “Our two peoples are very closely connected.” Trump has raised hackles in France after saying the November 2015 Paris attacks that left 130 people dead might have been avoided if the country had looser gun laws. He has also referred to “vicious” no-go zones in Paris and said French people arriving in the United States could face security vetting because of fears about extremists.

“Their bodies were also hung at various intersections in Mosul, with notes stating: ‘decision of execution’ and ‘used cellphones to leak information to the ISF’”, the statement added.

All of the killings apparently followed rulings by the so-called “courts”

established by ISIS. Conclusively verifying the details of massacres allegedly perpetrated by the jihadists since the USbacked Mosul offensive began, has been a challenge for UN investigators amid the chaos of the fighting and the threat of reprisals against sources.

PARIS, Nov 11 (Agencies): French President Francois Hollande said Friday he would “clarify positions” with US presidentelect Donald Trump during “frank” telephone discussions later in the day.

“I will have to clarify and seek clarification on positions. We must speak frankly to each other,” Hollande told France 2 television on the sidelines of France’s Armistice commemorations. On Wednesday, the Socialist president had said the Republican billionaire’s election win “opens a period of uncertainty” and offered only brief congratulations.

“Donald Trump has been elected, my duty is to ensure that we have the best relations but on the basis of frankness and clarity,” Hollande, who declared a few months ago Trump’s excesses “make you want to retch”, said Friday.

The French leader cited the fight against terrorism, the battle against the ISIS in Syria and Iraq and the conflict in eastern Ukraine among the subjects he wished to discuss.

He underscored the “long friendship” between

Dhaka, Nov 11 (IANS): Hundreds of Bangladeshi citizens, who come to India for medical treatment, have been adversely affected by India’s sudden demonetization of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency notes, media reported.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a televised address on Tuesday announced that the high value currency notes will not be legal tender from November 8 midnight onwards, to curb the menace of black money and corruption.

But the decision has adversely impacted Bangladeshi patients in India, either already under treatment or seeking the same, bdnews24 reported.

Re l a t ive s o f s u c h patients said they had exchanged Bangladesh currency or US dollars for high value Indian currency like 1,000 or 500 rupees because large amounts are needed for treatment which is easy to handle with high value notes.

House, urged Trump to allow journalists to cover his meetings and other movements.

“This decision could leave Americans blind about his whereabouts and well-being in the event of a national crisis,” said Jeff Mason, White House correspondent for Reuters and the group’s president. “Not allowing a pool of journalists to travel with and cover the next president of the United States is unacceptable.”

Trump’s meeting with Obama in the Oval Office was recorded by the pool of White House reporters, photographers and TV journalists who cover the president. Every president and president-elect in recent memory has traveled with a pool of journalists when leaving the White House grounds.

A pool of reporters and photographers was in the motorcade when President John F. Kennedy was shot and killed in Dallas.

The pool was just steps away from President Ronald Reagan when he was shot outside a hotel in the District of Columbia, and was stationed outside his hospital as he recovered.

New York, Nov 11 (Agencies): Donald Trump is keeping Americans in the dark about his earliest conversations and decisions as president-elect, bucking a long-standing practice intended to ensure the public has a watchful eye on its new leader.

Trump on Thursday refused to allow journalists to travel with him to Washington for his historic first meetings with President Barack Obama and congressional leaders. The Republican’s top advisers rebuffed news organizations’ requests for a small “pool” of journalists to trail him as he attended the meetings.

The decision was part of an opaque pattern in Trump’s moves since his victory Tuesday. He was entirely out of sight on Wednesday. His aides said he was huddled with advisers at his offices in New York. His team has not put out a daily schedule, or offered any detailed updates on how he has spent his time. They have not acknowledged phone calls or other contact with world leaders.

Ruffalo Leonard Cohen: Canadian Short film from Nagaland Mark joins protest singer dead aged 82 against Trump ‘Blissful’ gets positive reviews A L

T

sic

eonard Cohen dead at 82, leaves behind ‘endless love’ for mu-

L e ge n d a r y s i n ge r songwriter Leonard Cohen, who’s “Hallelujah” was one of the most covered songs, is dead at 82. His death led to tributes from the international world as well as Indian celebrities, who remembered some of his best tracks.

Cohen’s label, Sony Music Canada, confirmed his death on the singer’s Facebook page.

“It is with profound sorrow we report that legendary poet, songwriter and artist, Leonard Cohen has passed away. A memorial will take place in Los Angeles at a later date,” the statement read. A cause of death and exact date of death was not given, but his son Adam wrote in a statement to rollingstone.com: “My father passed away peacefully at his home in Los Angeles with the knowledge that he had completed what he felt was one of his greatest records. He was writing up until his last moments with his unique

brand of humour.”

The singer, whose work spanned nearly 50 years, was a rare artiste of his generation to enjoy artistic success into his 80s, releasing his final album, “You Want It Darker”, earlier this year.

His death was mourned by a slew of Hollywood celebrities and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who said: “He will be fondly remembered for his gruff vocals, his selfdeprecating humour and the haunting lyrics that made his songs the perennial favourite of so many generations.”

Ju s t i n T i m b e r l a k e called him “a spirit and soul beyond compare”, while actor Russell Crowe

thanked him for “the quiet nights, the reflection, the perspective, the wry smiles and the truth”. Filmmaker Ron Howard said Leonard Cohen was one of his favourite singer-poets. In India, film celebrities like Anupam Kher, Vishal Dadlani and Onir paid tributes.

Born on September 21, 1934, in Westmount, Quebec, Leonard Cohen learned guitar as a teenager and formed a folk group called the Buckskin Boys.

Early exposure to Spanish writer Federico Garcia Lorca turned him toward poetry -- while a flamenco guitar teacher convinced him to trade steel strings for nylon.

he undying dream project of Bendang Walling (Director) and Aakum Den (Editor cum APO) under the aegis of OFF ON Production Pvt. Ltd. screened their short film with the mentors and film fellows in the recently concluded DIFF. Bendang Walling’s finely crafted film ‘Blissful’ is about a boy who wants to own a bicycle. The film stays clear of the usual practice of extracting the

boy’s ‘cuteness’ and delves into the boy’s desire with the sincerity the subject deserves. In doing so, the film takes us through an unpredictable journey with the boy. Filmmaker Anupama Srinivasan found the film full of surprises, never falling into the predictable trap.

Filmmaker Umesh Kulkarni admired the film for not sentimentalizing the subject, as some children’s films do. Bendang

Michael Bublé ‘will not sing’ until son Goa to host new music and arts festival Noah is well, says friend David Foster A

D

avid Foster has opened up about how his friend Michael Bublé is coping with his three-year-old son Noah’s cancer diagnosis.

David said he was sure that Michael will not “sing again until his child is well” and that the Feeling Good crooner is living in a “huge bubble” right now.

“When this happens, everything shuts down around you,” said David. “You go inside your little bubble and I don’t think he’s looking at social media. I’m sure he feels the love from millions of people.”

“When this happens, everything shuts down around you,” said David Foster He added to Entertainment Tonight Canada: “He’s got good doctors around him. We will hope and pray for a good outcome, which I believe that they will have.

“He’s a good man.

He’s got a lot of good karma coming his way.

He’s done a lot of good to a lot of people.”

D av i d ’s u p d a t e comes shortly after an Argentinean magazine

reported that little Noah is battling liver cancer.

Daniela Lopilato – the sister of Michael’s wife Luisana Lopilato – revealed that the youngster is already undergoing chemotherapy.

Michael will not “sing again until his child is well,” he added “If God wanted it to be discovered that way, it’s because he wants to save Noah,” Daniela told Gente.

“Cancer is a horrible illness, but we have faith in Noah being able to overcome this. We know he will.

“The time to start a long and very difficult treatment has come but it’s got to be done. They say that children are often strong enough to with-

stand chemotherapy… and my nephew is a warrior.”

According to the publication, Noah was diagnosed on 1 November when medics carried out a liver biopsy, following an examination at a clinic in Buenos Aires.

It’s understood that his chemotherapy treatment will last four months.

Michael, 41, and Luisana, 29, announced the sad news in a Facebook statement last week, just two days after the diagnosis.

The singer has already cancelled his performance at the BBC Music Awards scheduled for 12 December, and it’s likely that he will bow out of his hosting duties at the BRITs in February.

boutique music and arts festival, GOAT, will be held in January 2017 in Goa. The three-day multigenre festival starting on January 27 will take place on the beaches of Ashvem and Morjim in Goa. The GOAT festival is presented by GOAT Music, a London-based music and events agency, founded by Dave Gaydon and Lou Birkett.

“After leaving The Roundhouse in the summer of 2015, never would we have imagined to be able to present our own festival in Britain, let alone in India.

The reception has been so encouraging. We are very grateful to be working in such a progressive and creative landscape,” Gaydon, CEO, GOAT Music, said in a statement.

Leading the first announcement of acts is Gilles Peterson, a music connoisseur who has championed a global music perspective through his radio shows and label. Peterson is also the festival’s artiste ambassador.

“I’m delighted to be working with GOAT Music on this exciting venture in this beautiful territory. The music programme promises to be a cross-fusion of cultures and sounds includ-

ing some artistes which I have had the great pleasure of working with before,” said Peterson, who often exchanges roles between being a DJ, broadcaster, producer, compiler and label boss.

Joining Peterson in Ashwem will be US-born, Pune-educated and London-based jazz composer, percussionist and producer Sarathy Korwar.

Korwar’s debut album “Day to Day” fuses tradi-

tional folk music of the Sidi community in India (combining East African, Sufi and Indian influences) with jazz and electronics.

A flavour of one of London’s coolest parties will be found on the beaches of Goa when Secretsundaze founder James Priestley plays at GOAT. Joining him will be some raw talent like Dope St Jude, a socially conscious rapper from Cape Town alongside New Zealand soul electronic five-piece act Sorceress, Londonbased Medlar, famous for his funk-infuse strain of house music, jazz-based duo Yussef Kamaal.

eteran actor Anupam Kher, who runs his own acting school, will perform his popular monologue “Kuchhh Bhi Ho Sakta Hai” at Sahitya Aaj Tak literature festival here on Sunday.

Anupam says he has attended literature festivals as an author and has held one-on-one sessions where he has spoken and discussed about books and related topics, but this would be the first time that he will perform at a literature festival.

“This is the first time I think that a literature festival has a performance.

It’s an autobiography on stage. Around 13 years back, someone had asked me to write my autobiography. So I had recorded seven to eight hours of my life. When I heard them, I thought to myself that I should perform,” Anupam told IANS.

Walling’s clarity about the subject of his film is praise worthy. It is his first film but it does not look like a first film. ‘Blissful’ is a well rounded film which exudes great control and clarity about its subject.

‘Blissful’ as a film encompasses the idea of human desire in the most innocent way. The film’s protagonist (Adang) is driven by his desire for a bicycle so that he, too, can experience what it means

to own a bicycle, like his friends do. The sheer joy that he associates with the attainment of the bicycle is much more than owning a physical commodity. It’s also about being accepted and included by his peers.

Never does the film let on that Adang is sidelined for lack of owning a bicycle. In the end when he does get one, however dilapidated it might be, his friends’ reaction is what warms our hearts and steals the show.

- M e h a k Ja m a l , a filmmaker from Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir ‘Blissful’ is a young film that dares to be innocent yet relevant in a time of hysteria.

- Vishal Langthasa, a filmmaker from Haflong, Assam ‘Blissful’ takes you back to your childhood days, when you ran naked without giving a damn about the world.

- Tourangbam Andy, a filmmaker from Imphal, Manipur.

ctor Mark Ruffalo has joined the Donald Trump protest on the streets here.

The 48-year-old actor took part in a public demonstration against the new American President alongside a number of disgruntled people following the US presidential election, which saw the Republican take victory over the Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The actor shared a clip of himself surrounded by several protesters outside Trump Tower here, on his Instagram account on Thursday. He captioned the post: “Love Trumps hate love fest NYC, thousands in the street”.

The “Spotlight” actor also tweeted that he is against the “hate Trump elicits”. “This is what we were out protesting tonight.

It’s the hate Trump elicits from his followers. Trump protest,” he posted. Ruffalo isn’t the only one to be in support of the protests as singers like Madonna, Lady Gaga and Cher are also backing campaigns against Trump.

Vijay, Pujara lead India’s fightback

Rajkot, Nov 11 (PTI): Murali Vijay and Cheteshwar Pujara led India’s determined response to England’s mammoth first innings total of 537 as they struck dogged hundreds to guide the hosts to 319/4 on the third day of the first cricket Test here today.

Showing great fortitude in the face of a daunting challenge, Vijay played

a typically gritty innings of 126 in 301 balls, while one-down batsman Pujara compiled a more aggressive 124 in 206 balls.

The duo forged a huge second-wicket stand of 209 to help India give an apt reply to England’s massive first innings score of 537.

England fought back late in the day by dismissing the well-set Vijay, who hit 9

fours and 4 sixes in his marathon 485-minute innings, and night watchman Amit Mishra (0) in the space of four balls.

At stumps, India had replied with 319 for four, still 218 runs behind the visitors’ tally with six wickets in hand on a track that showed some signs of wear and tear but did not hold many terrors for the Indian batsmen.

The post-tea dismissals of the well-entrenched Pujara and Vijay, five minutes before close, and then Mishra off the last ball, has given big hopes to the visitors to apply pressure on the hosts tomorrow.

Pujara was out chasing a wide ball from Ben Stokes while Vijay and Mishra were dismissed by Adil Rashid and Zafar Ansari respectively.

But unless India suffer a dramatic collapse, the game looks headed for a tame draw.

Today, the Rajkot-born Pujara was the more aggressive batsman in the secondwicket pair in his home

venue and notched up his ninth Test hundred overall in his 39th Test. His innings was laced with 17 hits to the fence.

Vijay, on the other hand, was not averse to playing the second fiddle to Pujara. The duo had previously compiled five three-figure stands, including a mammoth 370 against Australia in the Hyderabad Test three years ago. Today’s stand was also their second in excess of 200.

Vijay also carried on bravely after taking a nasty knock on his knee from Chris Woakes after completing his hundred.

The Chennai-bor n batsman scored his seventh Test hundred and second against the visiting team, also his first since a knock of 150 against Bangladesh at Fatullah in March last year.

Brief Scores: England 537 (Ben Stokes 128, Joe Root 124, Moeen Ali 117) lead India 319/4 (Murali Vijay 126, Cheteshwar Pujara 124, Virat Kohli 26 not out) by 218 runs.

Sharapova to return as UN goodwill ambassador

UNITED NATIONS, Nov 11 (Agencies): Maria Sharapova will once again be a UN goodwill ambassador when her doping ban expires in April and she returns to international tennis competition, a UN statement said on Thursday.

The United Nations had suspended Sharapova’s role as goodwill ambassador in March after she failed a drug test, putting a hold on a nine-year partnership with the UN Development Programme. “UNDP was glad to learn that Maria Sharapova can return to the

Obituary A 20 year old young, remarkable and truly inspirational girl Anushri Jain from [Dimapur] passed away on 6 th November 2016. Her demise is a great loss for all of us.

Pursuing MBA from ICFAI UNIVERSITY, Anushri was a girl with spanking and lively nature.

She was born with a helping nature. She was infact born with a big heart in which she ensured everyone finds a place.

Having an efficient and intellectual brain, She was not only a make-up artist, but also a successful businesswoman, who successfully started up a cafe named "Cafe Bae" in only 20 days.

It may sound good and easy but it was her determination and hard work by which she achieved this fate.

Yes she was conscientious and a dedicated girl, who diligently could do anything that she aspired to. Her loss is extremely tragic and unexpected. Though She is no more physically with us now, but is still alive in our hearts She is indeed an inspiration to all of us.

We miss you !

Fernandes’ late strike sinks NE Utd

Players of NorthEast United and FC Goa during their ISL match on Friday.

M a rg ao, N ov 1 1 (Agencies): Just when it looked like FC Goa’s poor discipline would yet again came to haunt them after a player was sent off, they rallied to beat NorthEast United 2-1 at the Fatorda Stadium on Friday.

Sahil Tavora was sent off for the home side 15 minutes from time and it looked like they would have to settle for a draw after striker Robin Singh’s equaliser swung the momentum in their favour.

NorthEast United’s bad habit of conceding late goals came to their downfall as Romeo Fernandes took full advantage of a tired defence to grab the

winner with seconds left for the end of the contest.

Nor thEast United took the lead in the 50th minute through a deflected shot from Seityasen Singh, leaving the impressive Laxmikant Kattimani flat-footed. The visitors, who had lost three games on the trot coming into this contest raided the Goan territory with great gusto.

A combination of poor finishing and Kattimani’s excellent goalkeeping kept United at bay.

Katsumi Yusa came close to putting United in the lead with a lethal free-kick, which rolled out of play after striking the crossbar. United kicked

on from there and took a series of shots, only to see Kattimani show safe hands in front of goal.

The Goan stopper’s most impressive save of the half was from Nicolas Velez’s shot after the Argentine ran through on goal.

Kattimani stopped the shot with his outstretched legs.

United’s efforts finally paid NO 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

off in the second half when Seityasen Singh netted what was only his second goal for the Highlanders.

Goa created pressure of their own and Robin Singh, after a string of forgettable displays, was a menace in the United box.

Fernandes was the creator here, muscling his way to the by-line before finding Robin Singh in space, who jabbed the ball into the net with his left foot.

When Tavora was handed his second yellow for a reckless challenge, it looked like Goa would have to settle for a draw.

United players were showing fatigue and the Goans made it count. Robin Singh could have landed the winner three minutes from time had he got to the end of a pin-point cross from Rafael Coelho – the Indian striker made a mess of the chance, not even landing a foot on the ball.

Robin Singh went on to atone for his mess with a delightful through ball to set Fernandes through on goal.

The Goan midfielder rounded the keeper and slotted the ball home with seconds left in stoppage time.

Olympic boost for refugee athletes as IOC increase grants Lausanne, Nov 11 (Agencies): The International Olympic Committee will hand over more than £400m so athletes from poorer nations can compete on the world stage, as well as increasing funding for the refugee team initiative it launched in Rio. The new four-year Olympic solidarity plan, which is funded by the sale of broadcast rights for Rio 2016 and PyeongChang 2018, runs from 2017 to 2020 and is a 16 per cent increase on the last four-year cycle. IOC director of Olympic solidarity Pere Miro said: “This increase shows that the athletes remain at the heart of all our activity.

“The huge worldwide success of Rio 2016...enables us to distribute more than half a billion dollars over the next four years to the national Olympic committees.”

The solidarity programme helps nations “with the greatest needs” by funding programmes to develop administrators, athletes and coaches. Among the 21 different programmes for this four-year plan are two new ones: “refugee athlete support” and “athletes’ career transition”.

The latter will focus on educating athletes to prepare them for life after their sports careers are over, while the former will build on the positive impact made by the Refugee Olympic Team in Rio.
