Arun Jaitley must quit or be sacked: Delhi Chief Minister Kejriwal
AAP believes in defamation: Jaitley Arun Jaitley said that Kejriwal, seems to believe in untruth and defamation, delivered in a language that borders on hysteria Agency | New Delhi
Agency | New Delhi
Describing himself as a huge fan of cricket, technology giant Google’s chief Sundar Pichai today said he wanted to be a cricketer in his childhood, revering legends like Sunil Gavaskar in his growing years. Talking to students at Shri Ram College, the India-born CEO reminisced his childhood days in Chennai.
Govt mulls a comprehensive food policy Agency | New Delhi
The government is considering framing a comprehensive policy for the food sector that would help enhance farmers’ income and provide processed food products to consumers at affordable rates. Addressing a conference of the All India Food Processors Association, Food Processing Minister Harsimrat Kaur Badal stressed on the need to further strengthen the linkage of the farms with the market and industry. She emphasised upon the need to make agriculture a more profitable profession so that farmers are able to raise their income levels.

Hitting back at Arvind Kejriwal over the DDCA row, Union finance minister Arun Jaitley on Thursday accused him of spreading “false propaganda”, saying he seems to believe in untruth and defamation and delivers a language that borders on hysteria. Jaitley also attacked West Bengal and Bihar chief ministers Mamata Banerjee and Nitish Kumar for supporting Kejriwal, saying “they need to redeem themselves” by publicly distancing from the Delhi chief minister’s vocabu-
lary. The finance minister said by referring to some facts of 2014 and 2015, Kejriwal cannot drag him in the Delhi cricket body case as he left cricket administration in 2013. Attacking Kejriwal for the language used by him against Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the wake of CBI searches on an officer in his secretariat, he said a state or UT by its “unacceptable conduct” can also be a threat to federalism. “Free speech is unquestionably a pre-eminent Fundamental Right, but does free speech include the right
to speak only falsehood? The Delhi chief minister, Arvind Kejriwal, seems to believe in untruth and defamation, delivered in a language that borders on hysteria,” he said on his Facebook blog enti-
tled “Falsehood as free speech”. He said Kejriwal alleged that the search on an officer close to him is a violation to the federal structure of Constitution and has used some “unacceptable adjec-
eastern corridor that stretches from Boston to Washington spans approx 750 kms is served by the Acela express, which achieves a top speed of about 240 km/hr. This speed is somewhere between the speed proposed for the semi high speed
and the high speed trains in India. The sheer success of the Acela, can be seen in the fact that it has helped Amtrak (the IR equivalent of the United States) , enhance its share of overall air/train commuters in the Washington- New York sector from 37% in 2000 to 75% in 2011. The competition even led some airlines to review services between New York and Washington. On the yet longer Boston Washington stretch the Acela today commands a share of approximately 54% of the air and train traffic combined. Today the Acelas drive close to 25% of Amtrak Revenue.
Bullet train between Mumbai and Ahmedabad: India should be courageous and take the leap Agency | New Delhi
The High Speed Rail (HSR) between Mumbai and Ahmedabad has generated several extreme opinions. What we need to look at is not just the economics of the rail line and it’s so called viability, or the ‘Make in India’ push it will give, but also the overall economic regeneration potential it can usher in its hinterland. A large catalyst for the growth of intellectual capital, research networks, and productive human resources at the higher end of the spectrum is often spurred by what is called ‘effective density’. These are the
large closely integrated urban agglomerates, which create a fertile breeding ground for not just new enterprises in scale, but also demand for services that are qualitatively different. Let us take the example of the United States. The North-
tives” against the Prime Minister. Jaitley said Kejriwal has questioned the purpose of the search and tried to divert attention by linking it to the Delhi cricket body rather than alleged corruption. “Fed-
eralism is not a one way stream. It is not always that the Union government challenges the spirit of federalism. A State or a Union Territory, by its unacceptable conduct, can also be a threat to federalism,” he said on his blog. Jaitley added that the DDCA case “is a part of propaganda technique to deflect attention when you yourself are in the dock” and accused Kejriwal of focusing attention on him after he acted as a shield to cover an officer under investigation. “I have left cricket administration
in 2013. By referring to some facts of 2014 and 2015, he can’t drag me in,” he said, terming allegations against him as unsubstantiated and non-specific. The finance minister said the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO), which was entrusted with the investigations in the case by the previous UPA government, has clearly stated that “no fraud (was) noticed as alleged” and his role as DDCA President was “like a non-executive chairman without involvement in day-to-day affairs of the company”.

2 / Dt. 18-12-2015, Friday Editors’ Picks friday, DECEMBER 18, 2015 The now critical problem of air pollution in Delhi, as well as In India
India, China and the Middle East, with their fast-growing economies and expanding industry, have seen growing air pollution, according to NASA scientists who tracked the trends over the last decade in various regions and 195 cities around the globe. There is a well-known saying that “a nation gets the government it deserves”. While typically used in a derisive context, when a clearly unsuitable candidate is elected to high office (as happened in the US at the turn of the millennium), the underlying message is that when faced with an undesirable outcome, the root cause is often to be found staring back at you in the mirror. The now critical problem of air pollution in Delhi, as well as a number of other cities across the land, is increasingly a reflection of the choices that the citizens of the capital, and the broader nation, make every single day. Choices around how we allow the city to develop, our commuting habits, the way in which we dispose of our trash, and, most importantly, whether we choose to hold ourselves accountable for violations of laws and regulations that are designed to protect us from such outcomes. That the Delhi CM has had to announce a drastic “even-odd” policy, leading to a deeply polarized reaction from the public, should be regarded as a failure. The only long-term solution to a problem like this has to come from a change in behavior that is driven by greater awareness. Granted that not all these choices are solely in our hands – after all, agricultural practices, land development, pollution standards and fuel quality specifications are not something that the aam aadmi influences directly. But, as consumers, we have far greater power over businesses than we allow ourselves to exercise. As voters, we can continue to participate in governance well past the election. And, as residents of the same great city, we can help one another make the right choices. Our neighbour China, which developed ahead of us, and has been experiencing far worse pollution for a longer period of time, is capable of taking swift decisions, with severe punishment for those who violate the laws. As staunch believers in democracy, we prefer to debate, pontificate and ultimately procrastinate – all of which will cost us dearly. Economists tell us that pollution of any kind is a negative externality, which a business typically does not reflect on its balance sheet. The standard solutions to addressing this are an outright ban (eliminate what is causing the pollution), taxes/fines (although this is often interpreted as a fee to continue polluting), and a cap and trade type system (where I can pay someone else to stop polluting, but continue to do so myself).

Kriti Sanon, who lives away from her home which is in Delhi, is a bundle of nerves ahead of the release of ‘Dilwale’. But she’s glad that her parents are taking a break from work to be with her. The young actress, who made her debut with ‘Heropanti’, is undergoing a series of emotions as ‘Dilwale’ is releasing on Friday. To lend emotional support, Kriti’s parents have decided to fly down to Mumbai to be besides her on the big day. While her father works as a chartered accountant, Kriti’s mother is a professor, and they have both taken leave. Her sister too has her exams around the corner and is balancing her studies to be with Kriti. “I am nervous and excited at the same time with the release nearing, having my parents with
Google doodles a musical ode to Beethoven Agency | Mumbai
It’s Ludwig Van Beethoven’s birthday today. If he was alive, he would have been 245 years old. And to remember the master composer, Google turned up a musical doodle. Beethoven is one of the best composers to have lived. Though his exact birthday isn’t known, he was baptised in the year 1770 and December 17 is celebrated as his birthday every year. The interactive doodle invites viewers to play a game wherein they have to put together his sheet music in the correct order to complete his work. The puzzle features three of Beethoven’s compositions: Fifth Symphony, Moonlight Sonata
and Ode to Joy. The puzzle becomes increasingly difficult as you clear each level. Here’s what Google wrote about the doodle dedicated to the maestro: “Ludwig’s father, a middling singer in the Elector’s court and a man too often in his cups, pulled the precocious child out of school at the age of ten in hopes of earning some money on the shoulders
of his talent (as a result, his handwriting was so bad that musicologists still struggle to authenticate his signature). He lost two siblings prematurely, had to assume full responsibility for his family as a teenager, fell madly for unrequiting lovers twice, and, most famously, began losing his hearing at the peak of his career.

to being friends after a period of enmity, first worked together in the Rakesh Roshan-directed revenge drama “Karan Arjun” followed by love story “Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam”. Salman also had a guest role in “Kuch Kuch Hota Hai”. Asked whether it would be too expensive to cast them together in a film considering they are the highest paid actors of Bollywood, Shah Rukh quipped, “I am cheap and sweet. I don’t know about Salman’s salary.” The actor, 50, is looking forward to the release of “Dilwale”, which will see him reuniting with friend Kajol after a gap of five years.

Apple is expected to hold a launch event in March to unveil the second generation Apple Watch and possibly the long-rumoured 4-inch iPhone 6C. Chances are the company may have another product up its sleeve for the March event, aka, the iPad 3. That being said, Kuo claims the new iPad will not include the headline feature of the new iPhones. The iPad 3 will come sans Apple’s newly developed pressure sensitive technology, aka, 3D Touch. “iPad Air 3 will opt not to feature 3D Touch because of production issues. While we think the 3D Touch supply chain produced more to avoid shortages in the early stages, slower end-product demand and improved backend assembly yield have resulted in the current high inventory.
