US immigration courts’ backlog exceeds 1 mn cases The figure has nearly doubled since US President Donald Trump took office in January 2017, when about 542,000 cases were pending IANS, WASHINGTON
T
he backlogged deportation docket pending in American immigration courts surpassed 1 million cases in August, despite President Donald Trump’s administration’s varied attempts to cut back on asylum claims. The backlog this year has grown at a record pace, said the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University, which tracks immigration court data, on Wednesday. The figure has nearly doubled since President Trump took office in January 2017, when about 542,000 cases were pending, Efe news reported The growing backlog was due in part to the surge of Central American families crossing the US-Mexico border this year, with more people crossing illegally in May than during any other month in a decade. The Trump administra-

tion’s crackdown on illegal immigration has also contributed, experts say. The administration has pushed recent border-crossers to the front of the queue, in an effort to deport them faster and send a message that unauthorized immigrants seeking asylum could no longer
Jaishankar’s son joins ORF as head of US Initiative WASHINGTON: Dhruva Jaishankar, the son of External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, has joined the Observer Research Foundation (ORF) think tank as Director of its US Initiative. The ORF announced the appointment on its website: “Dhruva Jaishankar is Director of the US Initiative at ORF.” ORF is supported by Reliance Industries (RIL), which is one of its main funder. It was set up as an independent multi-disciplinary think tank with the support of RIL in 1990. Dhruva Jaishankar, in his 30s, is a fellow in foreign policy studies at Brookings India in New Delhi and the Brookings Institution in Washington. He is also a Non Resident Fellow with Lowy Institute in Australia. He contributes regularly on strategic affairs in the media. His research examines India’s role in the international system and the effect of the global development on India’s politics, economics and society, with particular focus on India’s relations with the US, Europe

and Indo-Pacific. He has also worked in TV news. ORF is currently organizing a conference in Washington DC in collaboration with Heritage foundation. The conference comes ahead of PM Narendra Modi’s address to the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). A multi-party delegation would be participating in the conference, comprising of Manish Tewari of Congress, Rajiv Pratap Rudy of BJP and Priyanka Chaturvedi of Shiv Sena. Some prominent policy makers and journalists will also be attending the event. —IANS
stay in the country for years as their cases wend their way through the courts. That has had the effect of delaying court dates for asylum seekers who arrived in the country earlier. The administration’s actions have had the effect of allowing most people who already have asy-
lum cases pending to stay longer though TRAC data suggest most of these immigrants will ultimately not qualify for asylum. Asylum seekers are currently issued work permits while they wait, though the administration has moved to do away with the requirement to issue these work permits. The Trump administration has argued that the extensions and work permits provide a back door for immigrants to stay in the country and that the wait times have made crossing the border only more attractive for prospective migrants. The Justice Department, which oversees the immigration courts, has pressed individual judges to move through cases faster, giving judges a one-year deadline to decide each case and setting a 700case annual quota. Only about a third of judges are on track to meet that goal, according to Ashley Tabaddor, president of the National Association of
Immigration Judges, a labour union. The Justice Department has also hired more judges to speed up processing. About 400 judges are working today, according to the union, compared with about 280 at the end of the Obama administration. Last week, the government also set up temporary tent courts that are closed to the public, to hear the cases of asylum seekers the Trump administration has required to remain in Mexico while awaiting court dates. Meantime, the Trump administration has taken steps to limit applications for asylum, which it argues will allow courts to concentrate on existing cases. The Supreme Court last week allowed the Trump administration to begin enforcing a policy preventing nearly all immigrants from Latin America, except those of Mexican origin, to qualify for asylum.
Trump cites national emergency IANS, WASHINGTON
U
S President Donald Trump has reiterated the need for a stretch of about more than 800 km of border wall with Mexico to tackle what he said was a serious national emergency. During a visit to a stretch of the border fence erected in Otay Mesa, southern California, Trump on Wednesday said the “tremendous national emergency” involving drugs and human trafficking could only be contained with the construction of the wall and “when human traffickers can’t come through”, reports Efe news. This was Trump’s second visit to the site, having previously gone in 2018 to observe the eight prototypes of the new wall he promised to build across the more than 3,200 km of the border with Mexico. The prototype project cost exceeded $3 million and was finally demolished in February without any being selected. However, the San Diego fence began to be replaced in June 2018 by a new metal wall between 18-30 feet high, almost twice as high as the previous stretch, at a cost of

$147 million. Trump was accompanied by the Acting Secretary of Homeland Security, Kevin McAleenan, who told journalists that the area where the prototypes were erected now has about 24 miles of primary or secondary wall. Trump said the characteristics of the new wall in this area would make it harder for people to enter because it’s not easy to climb or cut. The President signed one of the columns of the wall during his tour before tweeting an image showing the concrete behind him.
He said that once the new barrier is erected, military contingents deployed at the border will be removed and only Customs and Border Protection officers will be kept. Regarding Mexico’s cooperation in addressing the immigration crisis, Trump stressed that they were “paying for 27,000 soldiers”, thwarting illegal border crossings. He also said raising tariffs on Mexico by 5 per cent for six months would cover the total cost of the wall, but ruled out taking measures in this regard.

Land acquisition for bullet train cleared
Former Kolkata Police commissioner Rajeev Kumar in Kolkata on June 7. (Photo: Kuntal Chakrabarty/IANS)
Though the project is multi-state, the Centre gave executive power to Gujarat to acquire land for it IANS, AHMEDABAD
CBI raids Kolkata locations in hunt for Rajeev Kumar
T
he Gujarat High Court on Thursday gave clearance to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ambitious bullet train project as it rejected over 59 out of 61 petitions filed by farmers against the land acquisition process and “inadequate” compensation. A bench of Justices Anant Dave and Biren Vaishnav declined to entertain the petitions challenging the land acquisition for the 508km-long Ahmedabad-Mumbai bullet train project being undertaken by National High Speed Rail Corporation Ltd. Upholding the validity of the Gujarat amendment in 2016 to the Centre’s land acquisition law, the court noted though the project is multi-state, but the Centre had approved executive power to Gujarat to acquire land for it. Indicating the legal validity of the process, it observed the President has given assent to this delegation of power with retrospective
PM Modi’s US visit from Sept 21-27 NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting the US September 21-27, during which he will address the ‘Howdy Modi’ mega diaspora event in Houston, to be also attended by US President Donald Trump, and he will also address the annual United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) session. Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale, announcing the schedule of the PM said, the two cities on the PM’s itinerary are Houston in Texas and then New York. Modi is scheduled to arrive in Houston on Saturday. A day later, he would be joined by President Trump during the address to the mega ‘Howdy Modi’ rally. “Prime Minister Narendra Modi will make a visit to the US from the late afternoon of 21 September until the forenoon of 27 September. And the two cities on his itinerary are Houston in Texas and then New York,” Gokhale said. Modi will address the UN General Assembly session on the morning of September 27, he said. Modi will also host a special event ‘Leadership Matters: Relevance of Gandhi in the Contemporary World’ on September 24.

effect to Gujarat. Hence the state can issue notification on the land acquisition process, though it did not have this power in the initial stage. Justifying Gujarat notifying the land acquisition without Social Impact Assessment (SIA), the court said that the state skipping the central law’s provision of mandatory Social Impact Assessment and Rehabilitation and Resettlement before the project
was also legal and hence the notification is valid. The court said that the SIA process carried out under the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) guidelines was appropriate and satisfactory. Ruling on the issue of the compensation for the farmers, the court said the farmers can produce evidence of higher compensation in other projects to justify their demands.
KOLKATA: The CBI on Thursday raided various locations here, looking for the elusive senior IPS officer Rajeev Kumar, wanted by the federal agency in connection with the Saradha Ponzi scam probe. Kumar, who has not been seen in public since Friday evening after the Calcutta High Court withdrew the interim protection from arrest given to him, has failed to appear before the CBI for questioning disregarding multiple notices served by the probe agency. The CBI sleuths, including men from the special investigation team set up to find Rajeev Kumar, went to the IPS officers’ mess in Alipore, Kumar’s official residence on Park street as also a five star hotel off the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass. “We are searching for him,” a CBI
officer told IANS over phone. Four Central Bureau of investigation officers drove to 34, Park Street and stayed there for 45 minutes trying to collect information about Kumar. The large number of policemen standing guard outside the quarters initially had no idea of the CBI officers’ presence. But once they came to know of the CBI sleuths’s arrival, the cops allowed them in only after checking their identity in detail. The sleuths’ next stopover was the IPS officers’ mess. Then the sleuths raided Hotel Vivanta near the Ruby Hospital Crossing. Stopped by the hotel authorities, the CBI officers went in after brandishing their identity cards and made enquiries from the hotel staff. The sleuths next went into the hotel taking the kitchen entrance and came out after half an hour.

After the cabinet meeting, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said vaping or e-cigarettes appear cool but a lot of health concerns had been raised against them. “The decision has been taken keeping in mind health of the youth,” she said citing recommendations of premier medical institutes. The minister said reports stated that young students in the US were
becoming its victim. Vaping has emerged as a major concern internationally with nearly 30 countries banning it. While admitting that conventional cigarettes are also injurious to health, the Finance Minister said awareness was being created against the use of tobacco products. “It’s a timely step,” Union Environment Minister Prakash Javadekar said.

Iran behind oil attacks: Riyadh
Trump announces new sanctions on Iran after Saudi Arabia said strike was a test of global will IANS, RIYADH/WASHINGTON
Tehran vows to retaliate
S
audi Arabia on Wednesday said the raid that damaged two of its oil facilities was “unquestionably sponsored by Iran”, and showed what it claimed were the wreckage of drones and cruise missiles involved in the attack, even as US President Donald Trump ordered a major increase in sanctions on Tehran over Saturday’s attack that has led to a spiral in global oil prices and sharply escalated tensions in the Persian Gulf. Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Defense said the missiles and drones used in the attack came from the north, not Yemen to the south as Iran has contended -- suggesting that Riyadh was in conformity with the US assessment that the attack was launched from Iranian soil. Trump posted his announcement
TEHRAN: Iran warned the US that it would retaliate against any attacks in the wake of strikes on the Saudi oil facilities over the weekend, the media reported. The message, which was sent through the Swiss Embassy in Tehran that handles US affairs in the country, condemned remarks by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and other officials linking Iran with the attacks on Saudi oil facilities, reported official IRNA news agency. “In the note which has been officially sent to the Swiss Ambassador, it has been

stressed that Iran has not been involved in the attacks. Besides, the claims of the US President Donald Trump and the Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have been denied and condemned,” said the report. Trump said that “it looked like Iran was behind (recent) attacks on oil plants in Saudi Arabia,” but stressed “he did not want to go to war”. Pompeo blamed Iran for the attacks on two Aramco oil plants in the east of Saudi Arabia. His tweets came hours after Yemen’s Houthis claimed responsibility for the attacks.
increase sanctions on the country of Iran!” he wrote. Iran has denied involvement in the September 14 raids, which hit the Abqaiq oil-processing plant and
the Khurais oil field in Saudi Arabia’s eastern province on Saturday morning. Both are major facilities operated by state-owned oil giant Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil producer. Abqaiq, the world’s largest oil-processing plant, is critical to Riyadh’s oil infrastructure. While Yemen’s Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for the attack, the Trump administration has been insisting that Tehran is behind it. Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Defense said 18 drones and seven cruise missiles were fired from a direction that ruled out Yemen as a source. The Saudi defense ministry said the wreckage showed the attacks were launched from the north and were “unquestionably sponsored by Iran”. Saudi defense spokesman Col Turki al-Malki showed off what was claimed to be a delta wing of an Iranian UAV (unmanned aerial
vehicle) along with other weapons debris. According to him, 18 UAVs were fired at the Abqaiq oil facility. He said seven cruise missiles were launched at both targets, of which four struck the Khurais oilfield while the other three fell short of Abqaiq. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabian Oil Co., or Saudi Aramco has said that the suspended production capacity would come online by end of the month. The strike on the Saudi oil field disrupted more than half of Saudi Arabia’s oil capacity or 5.7 million barrels per day (mbpd). Amid the growing hostilities in the region, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was on a visit to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said his country was already beefing up its security measures in the air and the water.

Saudi oil attack tests global community, says MBS RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman on Wednesday called the attack on major oil facilities in the Middle Eastern country “a real test of the international will” to face acts that threaten global stability. Bin Salman’s statement came during a phone call with South Korean President Moon Jae-in, according to the Saudi Press Agency. Moon said that the attack on two facilities operated by Saudi state oil giant Aramco in the eastern province of Buqyaq not only affected the nation, but also the whole world. The South Korean leader urged the international community to “take firm stance and action towards such sabotage attacks”. Saudi Arabia opened an investigation into the incident and

invited international and UN experts to participate in it. On Tuesday, Energy Minister Abdulaziz bin Salman said the country’s oil supply had returned to pre-attack levels. Riyadh had announced it was joining the US-led naval coalition to protect shipping in the Persian Gulf after a series of attacks on oil tankers. –—IANS
US hints at cheaper oil for India IANS, NEW DELHI
T
he US may offer oil and gas to India on concessional terms from its own reserves to help the latter tide over any shortages arising from the drone attacks on Saudi Arabian Oil Company, or Aramco, that have caused the biggest-ever disruption in global crude oil supplies. Diplomatic sources here said that supply details would be discussed in detail during the visit of the official Indian delegation to the US stating September 21, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also scheduled to meet US President Donald Trump. The delegation also includes a large number of Indian business honchos, including chiefs of public and private sector oil companies. “We can expect Indian oil com-

panies to sign memoranda of understanding with their US counterparts for increasing oil imports to meet the country’s domestic demand. Saudi Arabia meets close to 20 per cent of oil needs of the country and if there is a supply disruption, the US can become a dependable ally if terms
of such supplies are favorable,” one source said. India has also sounded Russia for increasing their oil supplies. Rosneft PJSC has agreed to assist India with its energy security efforts against the backdrop of the drone attacks on the Saudi oil facilities. Rosneft Chairman Igor Sechin conveyed this during his meeting with Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. The talks with US on oil supplies hinges on the terms of exports. The sources said that the US could offer concessions oil exports on par with the terms India enjoyed with Iran. The Islamic Republic offered cheaper freight and a 60-day credit period to Indian importers such Indian Oil Corporation, Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals (MRPL) and Nayara Energy (formerly Essar Oil).

Karnataka welcomes Shah’s clarification on Hindi Clearing the air on learning Hindi, Home Minister Amit Shah said that a child’s growth could be best achieved if he studied in his mother tongue FAKIR BALAJI, BENGALURU
P
olitical parties and proKannada activists in Karnataka welcomed Union Home Minister Amit Shah clarifying his remarks on Hindi and expressed relief that it (Hindi) would not be imposed on them or anyone. “We appreciate Shah for clarifying his remarks on Hindi. He should have done (clarified) it on the same day (September 14) or next day when we protested and threatened to launch an agitation if Hindi is imposed on us,” Kannada Rakshana Vedike (protection forum) president Narayana Gowda told IANS. In what seemed to be a damage control exercise following protests against his tweet, favoring Hindi as a common or one language across the country, Shah on Wednesday said at an event in Jharkhand’s Ranchi that a child’s growth could be best achieved if he studied in his mother tongue, and mother tongue did not mean Hindi. “But there should be one language in the country – should you choose to learn a second language – then learn Hindi. This is the appeal

I made on Hindi Divas. What is wrong in it, I fail to understand,” Shah asserted. Hoping that Shah’s clarification would allay fears of Hindi imposition in the state, senior Congress leader V.S. Ugrappa said better sense prevailed over the BJP’s national president, as he (Shah) assuaged the feelings of Kannadigas by giving importance to every one’s mother tongue.
“If Shah says we misunderstood his remarks on Hindi, his office or party should have clarified instead of him today (Wednesday). Media reports on that day did not have the words he used in his clarification like mother tongue and second language,” pointed out Ugrappa. Accusing the opposition parties of playing politics over the language issue, Shah also asked their leaders to listen carefully to the
speech he made in New Delhi on the Hindi day (September 14) and read his tweet in which he appealed to all citizens … to increase the use of their mother tongue but also use Hindi to make the dream of Bapu (Mahatma Gandhi) and Sardar (Vallabhai Patel) of one language come true. “India has many languages and every language has its importance. But it is necessary that the country should have one language that becomes India’s identity globally,” said Shah at a function in New Delhi to celebrate Hindi Divas on last Saturday. Terming Shah’s clarification as better late than never, Janata DalSecular (JD-S) leader Ramesh Babu said with so many languages and dialects, it would be difficult to have a common or one language across the country for practical reasons. “Though Hindi is spoken by more people and in more states, especially in the country’s heartland and across the Gangetic plains, regional and local languages are dominant in other states. Many states like Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka were formed when states were reorganized on linguistic basis in 1956,” Babu said.
Man lynched for suspected witchcraft HYDERABAD: A 24-year-old man was lynched near here on the suspicion of practicing witchcraft, which allegedly led to the death of a woman. The incident occurred in Adraspalli village on the outskirts of Hyderabad on Wednesday but came to light on Thursday. The police identified the youth as Bovini Anjaneyulu. The 45-year-old woman identified as Gara Lakshmi died on Wednesday after a prolonged illness. But her family suspected that Anjaneyulu, a resident of the same village, performed witchcraft on her. While performing the last rites of the woman on Wednesday evening, her relatives waited to see if the victim turned up. When he was passing by, they caught hold of him, thrashed him and axed him to death. The body was burnt in the same pyre to wipe out evidence. However, the police was informed about the incident and senior officials rushed to the village and launched an investigation. The investigators collected bones and other remnants from the scene and sent it for forensic tests. Witchcraft is practiced in Telangana villages and in the past many people suspected to be practicing black magic were killed by the relatives of the victims. —IANS
Pausing of 400 accounts irks Anti-Hindi ire in TN is decades-old JSP chief, Twitter responds VENKATACHARI JAGANNATHAN, CHENNAI
HYDERABAD: Suspension of as many as 400 Twitter accounts of the Jana Sena Party (JSP) supporters has evoked protest from JSP chief and popular actor Pawan Kalyan, here on Wednesday. The actor-politician wondered if the accounts were suspended for standing by helpless people and their issues. “I don’t understand the reason for suspending 400 Twitter accounts of JSP supporters,” tweeted Pawan Kalyan with hashtag BringBackJSPSocialMedia. Referring to Pawan Kalyan’s remark, a Twitter spokesperson in statement shared with IANS said, “Serving the public conversation is our singular mission as a company. Platform manipulation, including spam and other attempts to undermine the integrity of our service, is a clear violation of the Twitter Rules.” However, JSP leaders suspect the support for the save Nallamalla forests campaign could have led to
T
suspension of accounts. The JSP has opposed the reported move to mine uranium in the forests, spread over Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Attending the all-party meeting here on Monday to oppose uranium mining, Pawan Kalyan had said if necessary he would be ready do a ‘padyatra’ over the issue. In a series of tweets during last few days, Pawan Kalyan has been highlighting the disastrous impact uranium mining will have on the forests, wildlife, forest dwellers and surrounding habitations. —IANS
he face-off between some regional political parties and the Centre over Hindi language, triggered by Union Home Minister Amit Shahs last weeks comment, may have been averted by his clarification but the issue is decades old. The anti-Hindi agitation fire first erupted in Tamil Nadu in 1965 and using this as a plank, parties like DMK made huge political gains, including capturing power in the state. The state saw a strong antiHindi agitation in 1965, resulting in several deaths in police firing on the protesters. The agitation, spearheaded by the DMK, was one of the major reasons for the Dravidian party coming to power in the state in 1967, displacing the Congress. Even in the 1930s -- prior to India’s independence in 1947 -the erstwhile Madras Presidency had witnessed agitations when Hindi was sought to be introduced

as a subject in schools. In the recent times too, controversies were stoked by certain remarks, moves and decisions by the Modi government regarding propagation of Hindi. The latest was Shah’s comment that “it is very essential that the entire country has one language which becomes its identity in the world” and that only Hindi language could be such a uniting force. Political parties in states like
Tamil Nadu and Karnataka saw it as an attempt to impose Hindi on them and declared their intent to launch an agitation against it. However, as more and more leaders spoke out against his remarks, Shah clarified on Wednesday that he never sought imposition of Hindi on other regional languages and had “only requested” that Hindi should be learnt as second language along with one’s mother tongue.

HK crisis: Lam to meet citizens Lam said that the face-to-face exchanges would run over the long term

China tells US to stop interfering in HK affairs
H
ong Kong leader Carrie Lam on Tuesday announced that she would meet 100-200 citizens next week in a bid to reconnect with the public and find a way to defuse the ongoing political crisis. Speaking before Tuesday’s weekly Executive Council meeting, she said: “This is an open dialogue platform which we would invite people from all walks of life to, to express their views to us. “This is because of our conviction that communication is far better than confrontation. “The problems go well beyond the bill, so it is important for the government to listen and engage the community to have a better understanding of those problems.” Lam had first offered to create a public platform for discussion last month, the South China Morning Post reported. It was also among four actions she
‘No India talks unless J&K status restored’ ISLAMABAD: Pledging to present the “Kashmir case” at the UN General Assembly “like no one ever did before”, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that there was no use talking to India unless restored Jammu and Kashmir’s special status. He made the statement at a presser on Wednesday after inaugurating the Integrated Transit Trade Management System at the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, Dawn news reported. —IANS

pledged to take on September 4 when she confirmed the withdrawal of the extradition bill, the draft legislation which sparked the political unrest. Lam said she understood anger stemmed from “housing, land shortage, lack of diversity and inclusiveness in our economy”, adding that the face-to-face exchanges were not a one-off but would run over the
long term. There will be three types of dialogue under the approach outlined by the government. The first one, which launches next week, is open for all to sign up to. For each session, 100 to 200 people who registered in advance will be chosen, by lot, to attend. Lam said the second format would be more representative, with citizens chosen randomly for an invite.
BEIJING: China on Thursday strongly urged the US to respect the Asian nation’s sovereignty and immediately stop interfering in Hong Kong affairs. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang made the remarks in response to reports that the US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi held a news conference on Wednesday with House members as well as Hong Kong activists Joshua Wong Chi-fung and Denise Ho, to back the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019, Xinhua news agency reported. “China is strongly dissatisfied with and firmly opposes this move,” Geng said at a press briefing, accusing Pelosi and other US politicians of
confusing right from wrong, engaging with Hong Kong separatists and grossly interfering in China’s internal affairs. Geng reiterated that Hong Kong affairs are purely China’s internal matters and brook no interference from any outside forces. “We strongly urge the US side to abide by international laws and basic norms governing international relations, respect China’s sovereignty, and immediately stop interfering in Hong Kong affairs in any form and advancing the Hong Kong-related act,” Geng said. He also called on the US to desist from supporting any moves to undermine Hong Kong’s prosperity and stability. —IANS
‘UK to leave EU on Oct 31 no matter what’ T IANS, LONDON
he UK will definitely leave the European Union (EU) on October 31, no matter what, British Secretary of State for Brexit Stephen Barclay has said. After meeting with Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades, Barclay was on Wednesday asked if Britain would be leaving the EU on October 31 without an agreement, and Barclay said “yes, we will”, reports Xinhua news agency. Barkley said that he was “grateful to the president for the very strong
bilateral relationship that we have”. “He has a deep understanding of the issues around Brexit and very much shares the prime minister’s desire for a deal... It was surely appreciated to get the president’s engagement on this issue because both sides want to get a deal, which is in the interest of both sides, and that is what we are working for,” Barclay said. Barkley is on his visit to Cyprus to discuss Brexit issues. A spokesperson for the Department for Exiting the EU in London told the Cyprus News Agency that the

visit was part of the British government’s engagement with EU member states, “as the UK seeks to reach a deal with the backstop removed”. Britain has two bases on the island, which will have the status of foreign territory with boundaries with Cypriot soil. However, the two countries have reached a private agreement that the status of the base areas will not change and that Cypriots living or working within the boundaries of the bases will not be adversely affected in their everyday life after a hard Brexit.

Modi is being recognized by the foundation in New York on September 24 for the Swachh Bharat
Mission of which the constructions of toilets is a key element. A motley collection of Indian secularists, Pakistanis, activists and entertainers have opposed the award to Modi alleging he was responsible for human rights violations and for India rescinding the special status for Kashmir. Some influential US media also published articles demanding that the Foundation cancel the award. The publications include Foreign Policy magazine’s website, and Washington Post that is owned by Jeff Bezos, the CEO of Amazon, which has disputes with the Indian government. The Post published an opinion article by two Indian-origin lawyers.
An organization called S Asian Philanthropy published in the Medium a letter signed by people of Indian origin and others representing various foundations and NGOs. National Public Radio reported that a dozen demonstrators with “Stop Genocide, a project of the American human rights group Justice For All”, delivered a petition with 100,000 signatures to the Gates Foundation headquarters in Seattle protesting the award for Modi. The radio also said that three Nobel Peace Prize winners — Shirin Ebadi of Iran, Tawakkol Abdel-Salam Karman of Yemen and Mairead Maguire of Britain — had also sent the Gates a protest letter.

ALL EYES ON ‘HOWDY MODY’
Optopolitics of rarest kind will emanate and follow from Trump-Modi combination ROBINDER NATH SACHDEV, NEW DELHI
T
he ducks seem to be lining up for President Donald Trump to join Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Indian-American community event slated to be held on September 22 at Houston. Modi will take the megaphone to address the Indian-American community at the 50,000-capacity NRG Stadium, at an event titled as “Howdy Mody”. Now imagine that Trump is also at the event. Optopolitics of the rarest kind will emanate and follow from the combination. Will both leaders enter together, walk through the aisles, waving at the crowds, and reach the stage together? Will Modi start his address, and Trump sit and listen to the 40-60 minutes of Modi’s speech? And then, will Trump address the audience for 20-30 minutes? Chances are slim for this scenario to play out, for many reasons. Rather, some alternative version will be on display. One efficient option can be that Modi addresses the audience, and just as he is ending the address, Trump walks in, shouts out a “Howdy Modi!”, and joins and hugs Modi on stage, to rousing cheers. And then, Modi and Trump together, hand in hand, exit the reception, as the crowd keeps cheering to the roof.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi with US President Donald Trump. (File Photo: IANS)
Trump comes to take his friend Modi, and they together go for a summit meeting. The optics and politics of Trump at the community event will be powerful. Why would Trump travel to Houston? Surely not to only attend the community event with Modi. It will have to be for something far more than this. Though by attending the event, Trump could well stand to gain political
mileage with the Indian-American community, or is Trump doing a favour by joining the event? Or, Trump could please the crowds by making a short announcement that he will soon be visiting India? A visit by Trump to India in next 3-4 months is of high importance, perhaps as chief guest to the pageantry of the Republic Day Parade at New Delhi next year. Or, will it also be about large-
scale shifting of American companies to India from China, with some marquee announcements? What about a strong signal from America for an FTA (Free Trade Agreement) deal? India is worryingly short of what to do to tackle its current economic slowdown. A green flag on FTA will push US investments into India, away from China, and will therefore be a significant confidence building mea-
sure for the Indian market, and economy. If the US does this signalling, then what is the quid pro quo offered by India? What else can be a bold, innovative exchange between the two leaders? On defence? Though there can be some large deal on defence, there, however, cannot be a clean break by India in favor of the United States with the total exclusion of Russian supplies in future. The US seems to be realizing this, and India also seems to be doing some introspection in this matter. Right now, India may be at a stage where the geostrategic interests might weigh in favor of such a step by India. If India decides so, then the quid pro quo from the US must be something that India gets in exchange that is similarly ground-breaking, and with commensurate value for India. What can be this value that India might demand? Of course, there are a host of other topics too, equally important, that shall be discussed, like counter terrorism, Pakistan behavior in the Af-Pak, PoK, and Kashmir, and a range of other bilateral, regional, and global issues, including reform of world bodies, like the United Nations and WTO. When Modi roars “Howdy America”, it will be answered by a resounding “Howdy, Modi” by Trump. Quid pro Quo. Hello, Houston, we have a deal.
IB busts ISI ‘honey-trap’ used in luring Indian personnel SANJEEV KUMAR SINGH CHAUHAN, NEW DELHI
I
n a major breakthrough, Indian intelligence agencies have busted a “call center” being run by the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) of Pakistan in Jhelum city, 116 km from Islamabad. The call center, a major counter-intelligence hub of ISI, aimed at targeting the Indian Army and government officials in honey-traps, was being operated with the help of Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL). The ISI-backed call center was using Indian SIM cards, seized by Pakistan customs from Indian travelers, mostly women, visiting their relatives in Pakistan. Over 100 Indian SIM cards have been traced as the Delhi Police along with the police of a few other states launched a nationwide investiga-
tion into a sensational honey-trap scandal. The Indian SIM cards of female Indian travelers were used to camouflage identities of Pakistani women operating from call centres located across the border. Through Indian SIM cards and fake Indian IDs were created in Facebook bearing names like Sangeeta Mishra, Ayesha Roy, Nita Singh etc. Pakistani girls engaged by the call centre were especially trained in speaking fluent Hindi with a North Indian accent. With the help of ISI handlers, these girls primarily searched Indian security personnel on social media platforms and later approached them. After initial chats with the target group, the girls made video calls on Facebook and recorded them. The girls then shifted to WhatsApp for more intimate chats. The Indian officials trapped by the ISI call centre, at the outset had an impression
that they were chatting with Indian girls. Sources in the Delhi Police revealed to IANS that the scandal was unearthed when one woman from Delhi was questioned by the sleuths. The woman in the early thirties disclosed that her SIM card and phone was seized by the Pakistan Customs during her visit to Pakistan. During further investigation, it was discovered that the same SIM card of Delhi woman, bearing a Delhi mobile number was being used at PTCL call centre run by ISI from Jhelum City. “The woman also revealed that Indian mobile phone and SIM cards of Indian travelers were seized by Pakistani authorities who declared that no indian mobile phone or SIM card would be allowed to be used on Pakistani soil for security purposes,” said an officer of the Delhi police. Sources said initially the Mili-

tary Intelligence got a whiff of the honey-trap scandal when few Indian security personnel got involved in such cases on Facebook and other social media platforms. Later when the Indian mobile numbers were tracked and owner of the SIM cards were traced in India, the agencies became aware of the ISI’s notorious design to trap indian officials. Sources said earlier this year, Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) of Uttar Pradesh traced 125 fake IDs of women on Facebook, which
were a plant of ISI to honey-trap Indian paramilitary and Army officials. The data of fake accounts was shared by Intelligence Bureau and military agency with ATS. The Indian agencies shared its data with other state police since BrahMos Aerospace engineer Nishant Agarwal and BSF jawan Achutyanand Mishra were honeytrapped by ISI in October last year. Sources said several personnel of Indian security agencies were seduced by the Pakistani girls through Facebook and Whatsapp.

The thing I learnt from my journey is to work hard,” Ajay told IANS, adding that he doesn’t believe in comparing himself with others, and doesn’t look back but “look at today”. “I don’t get carried away by success too much or bogged down by failure,” said the actor, who is married to Kajol.

N
ational Award-winning actor Manoj Bajpayee is set to make his digital debut with the upcoming web show “The Family Man”. He says although the digital entertainment space offers creative people the scope to experiment more than the big screen, as an actor he waited for the right script to enter the medium, rather than join the trend as any other actors. “I am one of those actors who are constantly experimenting with choices.

‘Dream Girl’: Ayushmann Khurrana delivers another hit
T
he trick never fails. Put a Bollywood leading man in a woman’s garb, and watch the box-office rock. Kamal Haasan did it in Chachi 420 and there was Govinda’s Aunty No. 1. Actors from Amitabh Bachchan, Mithun Chakraborty and Rishi Kapoor to Aamir, Salman and Shah Rukh Khan, and Akshay Kumar, couldn’t resist the odd dance in drag, or the random comic scene. Jog your memory further, and you’re thinking Shammi Kapoor and Biswajit, too. In Dream Girl, it is the turn of Ayushmann Khurrana, new-age darling of the multiplexes, to invoke girl power and woo the box-office.
Film: Dream Girl; Cast: Ayushmann Khurrana, Annu Kapoor, Nushrat Bharucha; Direction: Raaj Shaandilyaa; Rating: * * * His act is slightly different from most of what Bollywood heroes have done so far within the theme. Although Ayushmann also gets to play out a sari-clad naari in parts, the crux of his role lies in impersonating a woman’s voice. Raaj Debutant director Shaandilyaa uses that idea to touch upon the contemporary malady of loneliness. In an era of frenzied
Dream Girl cast Ayushmann Khurrana and Nushrat Bharucha.
social media following, it is often ironic how one is left with no actual friends in life. Ayushmann as small-
town boy Karamvir Singh finds a lucrative job-op thanks to that sad reality. Son of a debt-ridden, mid-
dle-class shopowner (Annu Kapoor) in Mathura, who sells items for Hindu last rites, Karam accidentally stumbles upon a call centre for sex chats. His knack at mimicking a woman’s voice lets him assume the sultry, imaginary avatar of Pooja for lonely callers. The film reveals no ambition to open up a conversation on sexuality, or the need to understand the subject of loneliness its plot rests on. Dream Girl is your film if you are looking for a couple of hours packed with feel-good fun. Only, don’t go in looking for deeper nuances just because the film flaunts Ayushmann Khurrana as its hero — there are none. —Vinayak Chakravorty

2nd T20: India beat SA by 7 wickets Chasing a modest 150 for victory, Kohli smashed an unbeaten 72 from 52 deliveries IANS, MOHALI
Brief scores:
V
irat Kohli slammed an unbeaten half century and took a stunning catch to lead from the front as India eased to a seven-wicket win over South Africa in the second T20 international here on Wednesday. Skipper Kohli first took a brilliant catch running to his left from midoff off Navdeep Saini’s bowling in the 12th over to send counterpart Quinton de Kock (52 off 37 balls; 8x4) back in the hut and stymie South Africa’s run-flow as they ended up with 149/5 in 20 overs after being asked to bat first. Chasing a modest 150 for victory, Kohli smashed an unbeaten 72 from 52 deliveries, his innings studded with four fours and three sixes as India won with an over to spare. They put up 151/3 in 19 overs.

World champion P.V. Sindhu
CHANGZHOU (CHINA): Newlycrowned world champion P.V. Sindhu crashed out of the ongoing China Open World Tour Super 1000 badminton tournament as she went down fighting to Thailand’s Pornpawee Chochuwong on Thursday. Fifth seeded Sindhu lost 12-21, 2113, 21-19 in a thrilling second-round contest that lasted for almost an hour. The Olympic silver medallist started off strongly by winning the first game wherein she showed no signs of rustiness. However, Chochuwong came out with a remarkable comeback and won the second game to force the match in the decider. In the final game, the Indian took an early three-point lead but Chochuwong was quick to close-in the gap. The Indian snatched back the lead — although a slender one but Chochuwong was not far behind. Sindhu, who had a three-point advantage at 19-16 failed to close the game as the Thai shuttler came from behind to seal the deal in her favour and progress to the quarterfinals. Earlier, Saina Nehwal had made an exit after losing her openinground clash to Thailand’s Busanan Ongbamrungphan. —IANS
the 17th over and in the next, flicked Kagiso Rabada for a six to underline his dominance. In the 19th over, Kohli hit debutant Bjorn Fortuin for a six and a winning four to seal the deal as Shreyas Iyer (16 not out) looked on from the non
striker’s end. Besides Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan (40; 31 balls, 4x4 1x6) also got runs on his comeback to the team after getting injured during the World Cup. India were off to a superb start with Rohit and Dhawan, finding the fence at will. Phehlukwayo got rid of Rohit in the fourth over to hand his team some respite as the Indian vice-captain missed a straight delivery and was trapped in front. In came Kohli and together with Dhawan the pair added 61 runs for the second wicket as the hosts seemed to be easing to the target.
David Miller injected fresh life into South Africa’s cause by taking a breathtaking catch, diving full length to his right to pluck the ball out of the air with his right hand at long on. Kohli’s reaction said it all as to how good the catch was as Miller’s teammates ran to him to celebrate. Rishabh Pant, under the pump for his poor shot selection, did not do his cause any good as he picked out Shamsi at short fine leg off Bjorn Fortuin and was gone for 4, leaving new batting coach Vikram Rathour shaking his head in the dressing room. But Kohli was batting in a league of his own and Iyer also joined him for two fours as India coasted to victory. Earlier, newly appointed captain de Kock got off to a flying start and brought up his fifty as the away side looked good after ten overs after the first rubber was washed out without a ball being bowled.
