UNESCO pledges support for digital India PM Narendra Modi’s speech at UNESCO, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the UNESCO in Paris on Friday. Agency : PARIS In the first leg of his threenation tour, Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached France on Thursday night and is expected to hold talks and consultations with French President Francois Hollande. He will also be engaging in a ‘naav pe charcha’ (chat on a boat) on the Seine river with the French premier. I am truly honoured to address UNESCO. I feel specially privileged to visit this great institution in its 70th anniversary year. This milestone reminds us of a fundamental achievement of our age:for the first time in hu-
man history, we have an organization for the entire world – the United Nations. And,through the sweeping change of these decades, through many challenges of our times, and the great progress of this era, the organization has endured and grown. There have been doubts and skepticism. There is need for urgent reforms. But, for the nations that came together at its birth; and,for three times as many that joined it later, there is one unshakeable belief: Our world is and will remain a better place because of the United Nations. It is this faith that has given
Indian dead in Yemen; INS Tarkash to bring the body to Djibouti Agency : New Delhi An Indian national, believed to have been injured in a bomb blast in Yemen's Aden, has succumbed to his injuries, defence sources said Friday. Manjit Singh, who was working on merchant vessel Gulf Dove, is believed to be a victim of injuries sustained in a bomb blast in Yemen. "Though he was admitted in a hospital, he was declared dead subsequently," defence sources said. Indian Navy's stealth frigate INS Tarkash, which today evacuated about 450 people from Aden harbour, is carrying his body to Djibouti. The exact dates of
his injury and death was not immediately known. India had yesterday wrapped up its air evacuation operations from Yemen rescuing another 630 of its citizens from Sanaa, taking the total number of Indians brought home from the war-ravaged country to over 4,640 besides around 960 nationals from 41 countries. Yemen has been witnessing fierce battle between Saudi-led coalition and Shiite rebels, who have battled their way into various cities including Yemen in the former stronghold of President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi who has fled overseas.

Delhi govt to invite suggestions for participatory budget: AAP
Agency : New Delhi In a bid to prepare a participatory budget, Delhi government will be inviting suggestions from public through mohalla sabhas. "The Delhi government will be issuing advertisements inviting suggestions from the public for preparing a participatory budget," Aam Aadmi Party`s spokesperson Raghav Chadha said on Friday. The demands and sug-
gestions given by electorate through mohalla sabhas will be prioritized on the basis of voting done by the electorate of that constituency, he said. "The most feasible and interesting ideas will be discussed by the Cabinet ministers," said Chadha. When asked if the government was looking towards introducing gender budgeting, Chadha said, "the entire concept of gender budgeting is of great interest to me and that we would like to move into that direction." "Gender budgeting has not been implemented in the real sense at Union and state level," he said.
Lakhvi release: India lodges strong protest with Pak Agency : ISLAMABAD India on Friday lodged a strong protest over the release of Zaki-ur Rehman Lakhvi, a prime accused in the 2008 Mumbai terror attack, saying the “negative development” reinforced the perception that Pakistan has a dual policy on dealing with terrorists. “Our High Commissioner has registered our strong concerns with the Foreign Secretary of Pakistan at the release of a principal accused in the Mumbai terrorist attack of 2008,” the External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson said. “He underlined that this has reinforced the perception that Pakistan has a dual policy on dealing with terrorists and those who have carried out attacks or are posing a threat to India are being dealt with differently and emphasised that this is a most negative development in so far as bilateral
ties are concerned,” he said. Fifty five-year-old Lakhvi, who guided 10 LeT gunmen from a control room in Pakistan during 26/11, walked free after being under detention for six years, a day after a Pakistani court ordered his release. The issue also figured during the talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is in Paris, and French President Francois Hollande, who described the Lakhvi’s release as “deeply shocking.”
Terming the release as an “insult” to the 26/11 victims, India asked the international community to take note of Islamabad’s double standards. “This is an insult to the victims of 26/11 terror attack. Global community must take note of Pakistan’s double standards in dealing with terrorism,” a senior Home Ministry official said. Home Minister Rajnath Singh, on the sidelines of an event in Lucknow said, “India wants talks with Pakistan
but the present development (release of Lakhvi) is unfortunate and disappointing. Such decisions affect mutual relations between two countries.” India had yesterday said that the UN-designated terrorist has “eroded” the value of assurances repeatedly conveyed to it by Pakistan on cross-border terrorism. Meanwhile, according to an assessment prepared by the security agencies, Lakhvi’s release poses serious threat to India and the country may have to brace for a spurt in terror acts and a major terror strike cannot be ruled out at this stage. Official sources said for the last three months, a section of Pakistani establishment was trying every trick in the book to get Lakhvi out as the LeT cadres need his expertise. The assessment would be shared with country’s top leadership to decide the future course of action.
human being has a life of dignity; every child a future of opportunity; and our planet the chance to preserve its glory. No organization serves our cause more than this one. The seeds of our collective destiny are sown in human minds. It is nurtured by the light of education and the
spirit of enquiry. It makes progress through the marvels of science.And, it draws strength from the basic character of Nature–the harmony and unity in diversity. That is why UNESCO was among the first missions of the United Nations. That is why India values the work of UNESCO so deeply;
and, cherishes our partnership so immensely. I am conscious of the extraordinary legacy of our relationship from the time of UNESCO’s birth. I recall Mahatma Gandhi’s message to UNESCO, calling for urgent action to address the needs of education to secure lasting peace; and, the leadership of Dr.Radhakrishnan, later our President, in the early years of this institution. We are grateful for UNESCO’s support for education and science, in India and for preservation of our cultural heritage.
Industrial production grows at 5 perceht in February Agency : New Delhi Industrial production grew at nine-month high of 5 per cent in February on improved mining and manufacturing activity coupled with larger offtake of capital goods. The factory output, as measured by the Index of Industrial Production (IIP), had declined by 2 per cent in February 2014. In the April-February period of 2014-15, IIP grew 2.8 per cent as against contraction of 0.1 per cent in same period of previous fiscal, as per the data released by the Central Statistics Office (CSO) Friday. Meanwhile, the IIP for January has been revised upwards to 2.77 per cent from the provisional
estimate of 2.6 per cent released last month. Manufacturing output, which constitutes over 75 per cent to the index, grew by 5.2 per cent in February 2015 compared to a contraction of 3.9 per cent in the same month a year ago. For April-February period, the sector saw an output growth of 2.2 per cent, compared to a contraction of 0.7 per cent in the year-ago period. The output in the mining sector grew by 2.5 per cent in February, compared to a growth of 2.3 per cent in same month last year. During April-February period, output has grown by 1.5 per cent compared to a contraction of 0.7 per cent year-on-year. The produc-
tion of capital goods, a barometer of demand, grew by 8.8 per cent in February as against a contraction of 17.6 per cent in same month of last year. During the April-February period, capital goods output grew by 6 per cent as against a dip of 2.6 per cent.

The power generation grew by 5.9 per cent in February against 11.5 per cent in the same month last year. The overall consumer goods output grew by 5.2 per cent in February compared to a dip of 5.2 per cent in the same month last year.
India's Feb industrial output grows at 5 pct, fastest in 9 months Agency : New Delhi India's industrial output growth accelerated to 5.0 percent in February, its fastest pace in nine months, mainly driven by growth in capital goods and consumer goods sectors, government data showed on Friday. Analysts polled by Reuters were expecting the output to grow 2.4 percent compared with a upwardly revised 2.8
percent growth in January. India plans to release industrial output data based on a
new methodology and use a different base year for calculating the index in the next few months, said a senior government official at the statistics ministry. The industrial output data with 2004/ 05 as base year has become less relevant now after the government changed the methodology as well as the base year for GDP calculations in February. The revised base year for GDP is 2011/12.

QUOTE “even when the government was unaware of Bose’s SATURDAY, APRIL 11, 2015 OF THE whereabouts, it continued snooping until 1968.” Fee to enter Rajkot DAY - Union minister Nirmala Sitharaman said Zoological Park doubled Visiting Rajkot Zoological Park, popularly known as Ek Paheli Leela review: It's only about Why did Anurag Kashyap choose 'Jaata Pradyuman Park, is all set to get costlier as the standing committee of Rajkot Municipal Corporation (RMC) apSunny Leone and the art of seduction Kahaan Hain Diwane' for 'Bombay Velvet'? proved a proposal seeking to double entry fee and user charges for the park on Friday. At its weekly meeting, the standing committee gave green signal to the proposal forwarded by municipal commissioner. The approval means entry fee to the park for adult will go up from the existing Rs 10 to Rs 20. Likewise, a child below the age of 12 will be charged Rs 10 instead of the present Rs 5 to enter the park on the eastern outskirts and which is emerging as a major weekend destination near the city. Entry fee and charges for elderly have also been doubled while user charges for electric cars have also been increased equally. On the other hand, charges for battery-operated cars have also been doubled. Charges for picking up children and adult and dropping them at a location were Rs 5 and Rs 10 respectively. But these have now been pushed up to Rs 10 and Rs 20 respectively. Hiring a car for one hour will now cost Rs 350 instead of the existing rate of Rs 250. “We have increased entry fee and user charges as an attempt to partially recover the maintenance cost of zoo. But at the same time, the hike is in accordance with rates fixed by state government. The increased fee and charges at Pradyuman Park will now be at par with those at Sakkar Baug Zoo in Junagadh and Kankaria zoo in Ahmedabad,” Nitin Bhardwaj, chairman of standing committee said after the meeting. According to civic officials, Pradyuman Park registers average 1000 visitors on week-days and around 4,000 on weekends. The park had recorded 5.5 lakh visitors in the year ended on March 31, 2015 with the RMC collecting Rs 57 lakh from entry fee and user charges. However, maintaining the park costs the civic body around Rs 1.75 annually, officers further say. “The entry fee and other charges were fixed in year 2009-10 when the park was open to the public. At that time, there were only eight enclosures for animals. However, we have added 15 more enclosures since. The increase in charges will help further development of the park and better maintenance,” the chairman added. The hiked rates of entry fee and charge are likely to be effective in next three weeks, officers said. “Majority of zoological parks in the country are run by government funds. But to make them sustainable, achieving no-profit-no-loss level is important. The increase in entry fee and user charges is a step in this direction,” Atul Hirapara, superintendent of Rajkot Zoological Park, said. The superintendent added that tenders had been floated to develop a zoological interpretation centre in the park and that the next phases of development will be birds section, reptile house and aquarium.

Alia Bhatt hot in-bed pose
Agency : New Delhi Alia Bhatt is the latest sensation in Bollywood and the actress has made it clear to the filmmakers that she is ready to do anything in films. Alia has already appeared in bold and lip-lock scenes and the actress is keen on acting in steamy hot scenes as well. Here is the recent picture of the cute heroine and it was
posted on social media by Bollywood make-up artist, Mickey Contractor. Posting the pic he wrote, "Vulnerable can be soooooo sexy sometimes."

Film: Ek Paheli Leela Cast: Sunny Leone, Jay Bhanushali, Rajneesh Duggal, Mohit Ahlawat, Rahul Dev, Jas Arora Director: Bobby Khan Rating: 1/5 Agency : New Delhi After the success of Ragini MMS 2 and a string of item numbers that focused on nothing but her curvaceous body, it's no wonder that Sunny Leone's the newest go-to-girl for producers who couldn't care any less for the A certificate to their films. Her latest, director Bobby Khan's Ek Paheli Leela, is another in that list: It's an unapologetic attempt at riding (even cashing in) on Sunny's oomph quotient. There are spoilers ahead, so scroll down at your own risk. The film opens with
two princes -- Bikram Singh (Jas Arora) and Ranveer Singh (Mohit Ahlawat) -fighting for a haunted piece of land because somewhere hidden in it is a 300-yearold sculpture of a lady by celebrated sculptor Bhairon
(Rahul Dev). To add to the drama, the two princes are completely different from each other: Bikram is a criminal, and can kill without any qualms, whereas Ranveer believes in virtues like love and kindness.

Dharampal Trivedi (Paresh Rawal) is a caterer in Ahmedabad and has absolutely no qualms about

Irrfan Khan to promote sustainable living
Agency : New Delhi Irrfan Khan believes in sustainable living and he is quiet vocal of what he thinks. The
talented actor has come ahead and lent his support to theatre personality and social activist Prasanna's led
Badanawal Satyagraha and National Convention for sustainable living. The actor advocated sustainable living by conserving the indigenous tradition against aping the West. Talking about the movement Irrfan said, "Our living has to be in sync with nature. Instead of having people migrate to cities that are suffering from lack of proper planning, our efforts should be directed towards making villages self-sufficient.". "To ensure villages are self-sufficient, Mr. Khan said it was important to support the unique craftsmanship of village residents and the cottage industries. Village residents would be left with "nothing" if they sell their land and migrate to cities, which were improperly planned," the actor added.

However, it now seems that our 'Lakhan' has decided to not drag the matter to the court.

THE COLD SHOULDER SPORTS ROUNDUP TO INDIAN ICE HOCKEY IPL 2015 Kings XI Punjab elect to bowl first against Rajasthan Royals
Agency : New Delhi Sure Ice Hockey isn't hot in India but does that mean it should be the symbol of 'ignorance is bliss' in India's sporting fraternity? Is the reality any different from what's there for everyone to see when you compare the simple thirst and hunger of the Indian Ice Hockey team, the members of which plead saying 'we just want to play', with the thirst
of the lazy and apathetic megalomaniacs controlling Indian Sporting bastions? From the looks of it India's Ice Hockey program is the greatest underdog there is. The Indian Ice Hockey team pays to play for its country. Each member contributes in excess of 20,000 INR to participate in tournaments abroad. Those that can't don't get selected regardless of their talent.
'Most of us are working. They pay by themselves. Some of us our students. Our parents pay for us. Most of the times, some really talented guys are not able to pay for training camps. Then they don't participate in tournaments. Only because they don't have enough money' said Stanzin Nangyal a Forward with the Indian Ice Hockey team.
Agency : New Delhi Rajasthan Royals, who won the inaugural Indian Premier League (IPL) title, have always been a side that punches above its weight and it will not be any different in the eighth edition. Dravid, along with head coach Paddy Upton have made utilization of talent a key agenda and in the process they have created stars out of the blue Ajinya Rahane, Stuart Binny, Sanju Samson and Pravin Tambe being the prime examples. The team has struggled in the second, third, fourth and fifth editions of the tournament. But in 2013, Dravid inspired the team to a play-
off berth that enabled them to play in the 2013 champions League T20 where they ended up being the runners-up. In the last edition, they finished fifth place and this time they must be hungry to improve upon that as they kick off their campaign
against last year's runners up Kings XI Punjab. Kings XI have retained their core team from last year and will be looking to generate the sort of momentum that took them to the finals where Kolkata Knight Riders beat them.
Agency : Chennai It was a chest-high short ball on an off-stumpish line, quick and skiddy. MS Dhoni, shaping to pull, was late on his shot and the ball hit the sticker of his bat and rolled to mid-on. A few years ago, he might have picked up the length a fraction earlier, and given himself time to swing his entire body through the shot, the vicious force of it lifting both his feet off the ground. The ball might have hit the sweet spot of his bat with a resonant crack and sped away through midwicket. Four overs earlier, Dhoni had played that trademark pull,
but against the gentler pace of Albie Morkel. Now he was facing the genuinely quick Nathan Coulter-Nile. The next ball was slower, and Dhoni couldn't muscle it past mid-off. Coulter-Nile then speared one very full, almost in the blockhole, and Dhoni clipped it straight to midwicket. This was the 18th over of Chennai Super Kings' innings and CoulterNile had sent down three straight dot balls. Scattered applause rang out in the Upper G stand of the MA Chidambaram Stadium. It is a clichĂŠ to call the Chennai crowd 'knowledgeable', but here was evidence that they
still appreciated good cricket from an opposition player, even in the hyper-partisan IPL era. This was uncomfortable watching for the mostly yellow-clad spectators, but it was good bowling, and they recognised it. They may have wondered, though, if a younger Dhoni might not have sent that last ball soaring over wide long-on with that famous whip of his bottom wrist. They may have wondered when they had last seen their hero play the helicopter shot. Such thoughts had seemed farthest from their minds when the stadium announcer called out the XIs after the toss.
Spinner Sunil Narine is Dhoni the finisher put on ice a class act: Virat Kohli Agency : Seoul Samsung Electronics Co Ltd expects record shipments for its new Galaxy S6 smartphones and said it will struggle to meet demand for the curved-edged version due to production constraints, adding to hopes for a turnaround in mobile sales. The S6 models are widely expected to sell briskly following a string of positive reviews, boosting prospects for an earnings recovery in 2015. This week, the company estimated its January-March
operating profit to be its highest in three quarters, which analysts said was partly because Samsung put its own chips in the new phones. Samsung expects the flat screen S6 to sell more than the higher-margin S6 edge - priced about $120 more in South Korea - but mobile chief JK Shin said at a media event on Thursday the firm won't be able to keep up with demand for the latter model in the near term because the curved screens are harder to manufacture.
Agency : KOLKATA Star Indian batsman and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper Virat Kohli praised Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) spin spearhead Sunil Narine calling him a world class bowler on Friday. Ahead of their Saturday's Indian Premier League (IPL) match against defending champions KKR at the Eden Gardens here,
Kohli asserted his side has enough fire power in their bowling attack to plug the absence of injured Australian pacer Mitchell Starc. "I saw him (Narine) bowl in the last match and I feel he is bowling slower than before. But even then, he was difficult to pick up. He has got the skill, whatever said and done," Kohli said. "All the issues with bowling action and what
not. He is got the skill that is why he is able to pitch the ball in the right area and get so many wickets and trouble batsmen all over the world," he added. Bowling with a remodelled action, Narine who played a key role in Knights' twin IPL triumphs, went wicketless against Mumbai Indians in the opening match of the tournament at the Eden on Wednesday. But it didn't stop KKR from registering a comfortable eight-wicket win. "It's not that his action was the reason why he was bowling well. He has got the skill otherwise he won't be bowling at this level and getting world class batsmen out. He has taken two hat-tricks in IPL. He is a class act," said Kohli.
Sun missed star-boom in Milky Way by 5 billion years Azlan Shah Hockey: In Australia, Agency : New Delhi Most of the Milky Way's stars were formed in a star-birthing frenzy that peaked 10 billion years ago, but our Sun was late for the party, not forming until roughly 5 billion years ago, a new study has found. The study involved a multi-observatory galaxy census, one of the most comprehensive yet. Missing the party, however, may not have been so bad for the Sun. Its late appearance may actually have fostered the growth of our solar system's planets. Elements heavier than hydrogen and helium were more abundant later in the star-forming boom as more massive stars ended their lives early and enriched the galaxy with material that served as the building blocks of planets and even life on Earth. The new census provides the most complete picture yet of how galaxies like the Milky Way grew over the
past 10 billion years into today's majestic spiral galaxies. The multi-wavelength study spans ultraviolet to far-infrared light, combining observations from Nasa's Hubble and Spitzer space telescopes, the European Space Agency's Herschel Space Observatory, and groundbased telescopes, including the Magellan Baada Telescope at the Las Campanas Observatory in Chile. Astronomers compiled the story our Milky Way's formative years from studying galaxies similar in mass, found in these deep surveys of the universe. The farther into the universe astronomers look, the further back in time they are seeing, because starlight from long ago is just arriving at Earth now. From those surveys, stretching back in time more than 10 billion years, researchers assembled an album of images containing nearly 2,000 snapshots of Milky Waylike galaxies.
India Face Their Toughest Challenge Agency : New Delhi Out of title reckoning, a misfiring India would look to redeem some pride with an improved performance in their last league match but it would be easier said than done against world champions Australia in the 24th Azlan Shah Cup on Saturday. The Azlan Shah Cup was not only new chief coach Paul van Ass' maiden assignment after taking charge of the Indian team but also kick-started the country's preparations for next year's Rio Olympics. But going by the performances so far, it is clear that India have a lot of work to do to become a competitive force in the Olympics, for which they have already secured a direct berth by winning a gold in last year's Incheon Asian Games. India have crashed out of the title race here after garnering just four points with one
Parupalli Kashyap enters Singapore Open semifinals scrappy win and a draw out of four matches. On the other hand, the Kookaburras, who are defending their title here, are on a roll and have sealed their final berth by registering four victories out of as many games. The last time both the teams faced each, the result went in favour of Australia who sneaked a narrow 2-1 win over India to finish third in the FIH Champions Trophy in Bhubaneswar in December. Saturday's match
gives India an opportunity to avenge that loss. But looking at India's performance in this tournament, it looks a distant dream and only time will tell if Van Ass' wards have it in them to lift their spirits and salvage a positive result. If they can at least hold Australia if not win tomorrow, it will act as a huge moralebooster for India, who were without a coach since October last year after Australian Terry Walsh's unceremonious exit.
Agency : SINGAPORE Indian ace Parupalli Kashyap continued his impressive form, advancing to the semifinals of Singapore Open Super Series badminton tournament but young HS Prannoy was left ruing his luck as a foot injury saw him concede his quarterfinal match on Friday. Commonwealth Games champion Kashyap brushed aside France's Brice Leverdez 21-6, 2117 in 30 minutes to set up a semifinal clash with Hong Kong's Hu Yun on Saturday. Prannoy, on the other
hand, could not take the court after his foot injury - suffered during his giantkilling act against Denmark's Jan Jorgensen on Thursday -- aggravated on Friday and he had to give a walkover to Japan's Kento Momota in another
quarterfinal match. Kashyap hardly broke any sweat against Brice as he dished out a game which the French could not negotiate. The Indian opened up a 6-1 lead early on and did not allow the Frenchman to come closer to him.
