Demand for Tobu distt grows
DIMAPUR, APR 29 (NPN): Over a hundred people from Tobu area called on Nagaland chief minister, Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu on Friday to mount pressure for creation of Tobu district, spearheaded by the Tobu District Demand Committee (TDDC). In a press note, TDDC secretary Shamoh Konyak informed that a delegation of over 100 people from Tobu area led by TDDC met chief minister, Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu at his residence on Saturday, wherein a reaffirmation letter for district demand was submitted. In the letter, TDDC reminded the chief minister that the state government in 1987, having understood the difficulties and administrative inconveniences of Tobu, posted I. Alienba Ao as the deputy commissioner of Tobu. The then DC’s proposal to upgrade Tobu subdivision to Tobu district
remained unfulfilled since then, TDDC stated. It also pointed out that a report of the district administrative re-organization committee 2016 led by R. Kevichusa (IAS Retd) as the chairman was already submitted to the state government. However, no action was taken by the state government with regard to the demand, TDDC said. Tobu District Demand Committee asserted that “the demand for Tobu district was a public cry for justice due to prolonged years of negligence and for being left in the periphery of administrative headquarter for so long”, since villages under Tobu area were more than 190 kms away from Mon headquarter. In this regard, TDDC said it was a serious demand for just and effective convenience. During the brief meeting with the chief minister held at the state banquet hall, Tobu District Demand

The suspects further engaged in a heavy exchange of fire at Behiang post with 36 Assam Rifles troops who rushed to the spot. However, the suspects managed to escape towards Myanmar side, police here said. There was no report of casualty on either side, they added.

general secretary of the party in-charge of Karnataka, where the Congress is hoping to retain power. Party secretary A Chella Kumar was given the charge of Goa. Venugopal and his team of young leaders are considered close to Congress vicepresident Rahul Gandhi. Venugopal earlier headed a panel to shortlist candidates for the Goa elections. “Congress President Sonia Gandhi has assigned the task of looking after Karnataka and Goa affairs to new AICC teams,” a release by the party said. Elections are due in Karnataka assembly in the first half of next year. A general secretary coordinates between a state unit and the party high command. Mistry was in-charge of the central election committee (CEC) that was headed by Sonia Gandhi. The
CEC selects candidates for elections to Lok Sabha and state assemblies. The reshuffle comes roughly a month after Singh was blamed for delaying government formation in Goa, despite the Congress emerging as the largest party. The BJP succeeded in cobbling together a coalition and chief minister Manohar Parrikar even offered “special thanks” to Singh for “doing nothing” and enabling the saffron party-led government. Singh continues to be party general secretary incharge of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Another Congress general secretary P.C. Joshi in-charge of North Eastern states Manipur and Arunachal appears to have escaped the gallows. Party insiders blame Joshi for the flop show in Manipur where the Congress with 28 seats could not form the government and eventually BJP which won 21 seats was able to cobble a simple majority to form the government. Party sources said Joshi went to Imphal only after counting and failed to coordinate with Ibobi to garner support of three MLAs to form the government.
Male chauvinism has no room in a civilised society: SC NEW DELHI, APR 29 (AGENCIES): Male chauvinism has no room in a civilised society and the “obnoxious” act of eveteasing affected justice and the rights of a woman, the Supreme Court has held. SC made this observation while dismissing a plea filed by a man who was sentenced to seven years in jail by the Himachal Pradesh HC for teasing and compelling a girl to take the extreme step of committing suicide. Observing that “egoism must succumb to law”, a bench headed by Justice Dipak Misra asked why women in India cannot be allowed to live in peace. “It has to be kept in mind that she has a right to life and is entitled to love according to her choice. She has an individual choice which has been legally recognised. No one can compel a woman to love. She has the absolute right to reject.” It observed that they were at pains to state that in a civilised society, eveteasing was causing harassment to women in public places which showed that requisite sense of respect for women has not been socially cultivated.

S. Chuba Longkumer presenting award to Dr. Inato Zhimomi at Kohima, Saturday (NP) Correspondent KOHIMA, APR 29 (NPN): Joining the rest of the world, Nagaland State Veterinary Council (NSVC) organized t h e Wo r l d Ve t e r i n a r y Day at the State Capital Convention here Saturday on the theme “Antimicrobial Resistance-From Awareness to Action”. Speaking on the occasion as chief guest, the parliamentary secretary for animal husbandry and veterinary services (AHVS), S Chuba Longkumer, said that veterinarians played an important role in economic growth as animal husbandry was an integral component of Indian agriculture supporting livelihood of more than two third of rural
population. He said that the veterinarians by looking after the health and welfare of animals were protecting and improving the health of the human beings since many human diseases were zoonotic diseases. The parliamentar y s e c r e t a r y s a i d i t wa s estimated that among five new emerging infectious human diseases that appeared each year, three of them were related to animals. In this regard, L o n g k u m e r u r ge d t h e veterinarians to be devoted, sincere and constantly keep themselves updated with modern technology and information. Also, pointing out
that in 2010-11 livestock generated 4% of the GDP and 26% of the agricultural GDP, the parliamentary secretary said the total output worth was higher than the value of food grains while it also provides employment to about 8.8 % of the population in India. He asserted that healthy and productive livestock make important contribution to food production, income generation, job creation and economic growth. C h a i r m a n DA N , NBRM, Dr. Longriniken, who graced the occasion as guest of honour, reminded that the profession required more sincerity, honesty, courage, endurance, hard work and determination to achieve success. Recalling his experiences as veterinary p r o f e s s i o n a l , D r. Longriniken said that though the profession was tiring and sometimes frustrating there was always a reward for the veterinarians. He called upon the veterinarians to make a plan to bring catalytic changes for economic uplift of the state. Dr. Longriniken also asked them not to rely on government job alone, saying as professionals, it was the duty of the veterinarians to explore and nourish the people. Dr. Longriniken
further called for change of mindset and attitude to widen the horizon as the veterinarians were no less than any other professions.

GST an efficient policy: State CS
Pankaj Kumar, S.K Panda and others at the awareness campaign at Kohima town, Saturday. (NP) Correspondent KOHIMA, APR 29 (NPN): Nagaland chief secretary, Pankaj Kumar, has asserted that implementation of Goods and Services Tax (GST) would be beneficial for the state as existing taxes would be merged into a single system of taxation and termed it as an efficient policy. He was speaking at an “Awareness Campaign on GST” organised by Central Excise, Custom and Service Tax and Nagaland Taxes Department, Saturday at Angami Public Organisation (APO) Hall Kohima. With the implementation of GST, the chief secretary said that payment of sales taxes, including Central Sales Tax (CST) would also become easier. Nagaland being a con-
sumer state, Kumar said that states like Nagaland would benefit more from GST as the state’s share would directly reach the state through direct benefit transfer for the products meant for the state. He said GST would be a major improvement over existing system and a significant step towards a comprehensive tax reform in Nagaland. Informing that GST would be paid online, the chief secretary pointed out that the initial few months would be imperative and urged business community in Nagaland extend cooperation and also partake in trainings so as to avoid any complications. In his address, chief commissioner customs, central excise and service tax North East Region, S.K Panda, said with the
implementation of GST, Nagaland and the nation would have a new economy law which would be beneficial for everyone. The chief commissioner maintained that government and consumers would subsequently benefit from GST adding that it was meant for the common man. Commissioner of Taxes, Nagaland, Asangba Chuba Ao, while highlighting the benefits of GST said that it would reduce cascading of taxes and also overall prices of goods. He informed that it would be beneficial for small taxpayers as all the taxes would be paid for once unlike the present system where tax has to be paid at various stations. Ao then said “GST will also abolish CST while the exports would be zero rated.” Commissioner of Taxes informed that GST would be applicable on the supply of goods or services besides being destination based consumption tax. Tax payers with an aggregate turnover in a financial year up to Rs 10 lakh would be exempted from tax, he added. Deputy Commissioner Kohima, police administration, business, contractors and others attended the awareness campaign.

Tarun Gogoi condemns Nagalim plan
GUWAHATI,Apr 29 (Agencies): Former chief minister Tarun Gogoi demanded on Friday that the Centre and state government assure the people of Assam that not an inch of the state’s territory would be affected by NSCN-IM’s proposed territorial integrity. Reacting to the Naga group reiterating its demand for creation of ‘Nagalim’ by integrating the contagious Nagainhabited areas, Gogoi said, “There seems to some commitment made by Centre to
NSCN-IM, otherwise they would not be raising this issue every now and then. It is quite astonishing why the clauses of the Framework Agreement are kept secret. To keep such an important document under wraps for long raises doubts about its veracity.” “We will oppose tooth and nail any move that will affect the interest of Assam. The Central and state govermments must assure the state that its geographical boundary under the Constitution is kept intact,” Gogoi said.

New Delhi, Apr 29 (IANS): The Congress on Saturday termed as “political vendetta” the Dhingra Commission set up by Haryana’s BJP government to probe some land deals in the state including those of a company of party President Sonia Gandhi’s son-in-law Robert Vadra. It also noted that the party had during its long stint in power never harassed the financiers of its political opponents including the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). “Whatever Commission it is, this is political vendetta of the worst order,” senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad said here. “The Congress party ruled for decades. And we knew the business houses that were funding the BJP. But a Congress government right from the time of (Prime Minister) Pandit Jawaharlal

Nehru, never harassed or raided those who were funding the BJP,” he added. The one-man Justice S.N. Dhingra Commission of Inquiry, set up by the Manohar Lal Khattar government in May 2015, had submitted its 182page report on August 31 last year. The Congress, which had on Friday too called it a “vendetta”, had also termed it “null and void” as Vadra and former Haryana Chief
Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda had not received any notices from the Commission. The Economic Times citing unnamed people familiar with the Dhingra Commission report said Vadra made an “illegal profit” of over Rs 50 crore from a 2008 land deal without investing a penny. It said the committee had probed transactions between Onkareshwar Properties and Vadra-owned Skylight Hospitality and subsequently between Skylight and developer DLF.

Congress President Sonia Gandhi’s son-in-law Robert Vadra on Saturday said that “truth shall prevail” in the allegations against him over a 2008 land deal in Haryana. “Truth shall prevail,”

Criticising the Centre for banning the Internet and other social media, the former J&K CM said, “I called on the government and told them don’t take such types of measures. They are mistaken that the by imposing ban, conditions will improve. The situations will not improve until and unless talks are held with all. They think they can suppress us with force.
NEW DELHI, APR 29 (AGENCIES): While BJP president Amit Shah has decided to devote 15 days as a full-timer specifically for booth-level works, the party has likewise identified 600 full-timers, who will work across all Lok Sabha constituencies till the counting of 2019 elections. Top BJP sources confided that while 543 of them will be placed in each Lok Sabha constituency, the remaining will be stationed as supervisors for a cluster of five Lok Sabha seats each in regions considered weak in party’s internal assessment. “These 600 people will work as fulltimers till the counting of 2019 Lok Sabha elections,” confided a party source.

10 Bengal students suspended for misbehaving Ko l kat a , A p r 2 9 (IANS): At least 10 students of a college in West Bengal were suspended for writing about love, Hindi and Bengali film songs and poems instead of answers to questions in their semester exams. The students were from Balgurghat Law College in Malda, affiliated to the University of Gour Banga. “They were third semester students at the college. They could have written wrong answers but they chose to write slang, abuses and things about love, including lines from Hindi and Bengali film songs. “A fact finding committee was formed to probe this and the guilty have been suspended for two years,” Sanatan Das, Controller of Examinations (Additional Charge), at the varsity told IANS over phone on Saturday. Das said the students have admitted in writing that they had written “nonsense.”
Police forcefully removes Kerala women workers on fast M u nna r , A p r 2 9 (IANS): Two women plantation workers on an indefinite fast demanding an apology and the resignation of State Power Minister M.M. Mani for his disparaging remarks against them were on Saturday forcefully taken by police to the hospital after their health deteriorated. Though they have been on a protest since last Sunday, they went on an indefinite fast two day ago and have been subjected to
frequent medical checkups since then. On Saturday, the police decided to remove them to the hospital. The two women are leaders of the ‘Pembulai Orumayi’ (Women’s Collective) and have got support from the Congress-led UDF and the BJP, whose top leaders came and expressed solidarity for the protest. After the two women
were taken to hospital, their replacements have decided to continue the protest and are determined that they will not call it off till their demands are met. Senior Congress leader Lathika Subhash, who has been in Munnar since the protest began, said there were more policemen than women who had come to take them away.

NEW DELHI, APR 29 (AGENCIES): Former J&K chief minister and National Conference chief Dr Farooq Abdullah on Saturday claimed that the “beating drums” on the death of three army soldiers in north Kashmir’s Kupwara district was aimed at spreading hatred against Muslims. “The noise is not so much about 25 CRPF jawans getting killed in Chhattisgarh, rather, the Farooq Abdullah noise is about three army men killed in Kupwara. Muslims, please keep this They are beating the drum in mind,” Farooq said. “Now a days, new to increase hatred towards

It had pointed to irregularities in the grant of licences in its report submitted to the Haryana government in August last year. A report in the Economic Times on Thursday said that the Dhingra Commission has reportedly concluded that Vadra made unlawful profits of Rs 50.5 crore from a land deal in Haryana in 2008 without spending a single paisa.

Trump’s mixed bag
D
onald Trump the 45th president of the United States of America has completed100 days in office out of the total of 1460 days of a fouryear tenure. The one hundred days in office may not be much to mention but it must be pointed out that Trump had gone straight ahead in trying to fulfil all his election promises. He succeeded in some and could not in others but all in all, he proved to be a man of his words; never mind that all the promises could not be fulfilled. The American mainstream media has to accept the reality that Trump is the president of the United States of America having won legitimate electoral votes even if he could not win majority of popular votes. This happens in any country even in India, where the ruling BJP had won only 30% of the popular votes but grabbed a massive 282 seats in the Lok Sabha. The Trump administration has had to confront the threats in the Syrian front as well as the Afghan area. In firing Tomahawk missiles at Syria, Trump sent a clear signal that inhuman use of sarin gas, banned by the UN, used in any form and that too against its own civilians by the Assad regime, will not be tolerated. In Afghanistan, Trump is facing the crisis caused by Obama’s policy of leaving the country ripe for a takeover by the terror outfits including the Taliban. Trump is not bedevilled only by the Democrats within the precincts of the House of Representatives and Senate but also by those in the mainstream media, establishment, Hollywood, liberals etc. His presidential executive orders have been challenged by the courts mainly because his staff had not taken due diligence. Trump’s administration has discovered the limits of executive orders and presidential actions. A ban on the entry of travellers from seven mainly Muslim nations was overturned in the courts before being rewritten and then suspended again. A bill to abolish Barack Obama’s Affordable Care act did not even make it to a vote in Congress, so deep were the Republican divisions it exposed. During the past month the president has shifted his focus overseas, with missile strikes on Syria and a range of more muscular responses to foreign policy problems. The hostile media has given Trump a mere approval rating still languishing at about 41 per cent – a historic low, according to Gallup– at a time when he should be enjoying a political honeymoon. He however managed to have his nominee Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court confirmed which could be the longest lasting and most important success of his early presidency. Another campaign pledge has been met by formally leaving the TPP, a huge trade deal between the US and 11 Pacific Rim countries. The impact of Trump’s anti-illegal immigration has been the number of undocumented immigrants caught crossing the border into the US drop significantly after he took over. The fall of 36 per cent, compared with a year earlier, was taken by the Trump administration to indicate that its hard line on illegal immigration was having an impact. Trump has brought a disruptive style of functioning in the White House and benefitted out of it. It is left to be seen if the nation, in the next 100 days will approve of his achievements.
DailyDevotion Gracious Uncertainty .......it has not yet been revealed what we shall be… —1 John 3:2 Our natural inclination is to be so precise– trying always to forecast accurately what will happen next– that we look upon uncertainty as a bad thing. We think that we must reach some predetermined goal, but that is not the nature of the spiritual life. The nature of the spiritual life is that we are certain in our uncertainty. Consequently, we do not put down roots. Our common sense says, “Well, what if I were in that circumstance?” We cannot presume to see ourselves in any circumstance in which we have never been. Certainty is the mark of the commonsense life– gracious uncertainty is the mark of the spiritual life. To be certain of God means that we are uncertain in all our ways, not knowing what tomorrow may bring. This is generally expressed with a sigh of sadness, but it should be an expression of breathless expectation. We are uncertain of the next step, but we are certain of God. As soon as we abandon ourselves to God and do the task He has placed closest to us, He begins to fill our lives with surprises. When we become simply a promoter or a defender of a particular belief, something within us dies. That is not believing God– it is only believing our belief about Him. Jesus said, “…unless you…become as little children…” (Matthew 18:3). The spiritual life is the life of a child. We are not uncertain of God, just uncertain of what He is going to do next. If our certainty is only in our beliefs, we develop a sense of self-righteousness, become overly critical, and are limited by the view that our beliefs are complete and settled. But when we have the right relationship with God, life is full of spontaneous, joyful uncertainty and expectancy. Jesus said, “…believe also in Me” (John 14:1), not, “Believe certain things about Me”. Leave everything to Him and it will be gloriously and graciously uncertain how He will come in– but you can be certain that He will come. Remain faithful to Him.

Post-mortem
Can Nagaland show the way? Christian leaders are expected to act with maturity T
T
he Congress is a great national party which brought independence to India. It became the largest political force to rule India for the longest period in the post-independence era and also developed it in various fields. India owes Congress for its patriotism and historic contribution. It has brought tremendous achievements to India during its 60 years plus rule in both theindustrial and agricultural sectors. In the Initial period, the Congress rule in Nagaland was honest. The elected leaders were loyal to the people and no corruption was ever known. We should ever appreciate the Congress for whatever sacrifice it had made towards the people of India and Nagaland. However, the Congress party rule transformed into a highly and systematically corrupt form later and failed the nation. We cannot blame the Congress for all the failures. There are some factors that led to its gradual and inevitable declination. Constant rampant corruption, scams, non-transparency, non-accountability, mismanagement of affairs, high life style andunfriendly VIP culture have attributed to its downfall. People lost confidence in the high handedness of Congress dynastic system. Corruption under the Congress rule was at the zenith. The richer became richer with unaccounted wealth and riches and the poor poorer. Various schemes and projects well designed to promote the poor and eradicate poverty ended up in widening gap between the haves and have-nots. The worst is that it has transformed India into one of the most corrupt nations of the world (as per the Corruption Perception Index).Precisely, these have been the conditions and circumstances which made people groaning fora better socialchange. It would be hard forpeople to come back and support the same oldleadersand the party they had already left even if the Congress or its off shoot leaders try hard to turn people against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). It was a great blunder that Congress had played politics of losing supporters. It failed to understand the mood of the people. It is noticeable that people want new visionary, talented leaders
and new party. The Congress is solely responsible for its poll debacle and not because the BJP has emerged in the national political arena. The people of India have repaid what it has paid to them. There is a season for everything and now is the season for the BJP to nurtureits fieldsand reap the fruit. BJP is a national political party which is ruling at the center and 13 states of India. People have accepted the BJP because it is found to be people oriented, competent, visionary and pro poor with political will to transform the society. The deplorable social conditions in India on the eve of BJP rule cannot be ignored all together. BJP came as one of the alternative parties to INC or the Congress and people of India have considered it as the best substitute. If BJP had not emerged there might be another party to take the place as people had determined to punish and oust the Congress. People have chosen pro poor programs and all round development by electing the BJP to power and not a mere political party.The blame for every communal act by Hindu fanatics is thrown on the BJP or NarendraModior the NDA government. However, the BJP as a political party or the NDA as coalition government or Modi as the PM has nothing to do with communal activities. And if there is any allegation against the same should be supported with proof and evidence. If anyone is inciting communal disharmonyat an individual capacity, the party or government should not be held responsible. India has a strong and matured judiciary system.Let the law take its own course of action. Advocating BJP does not mean betraying or leaving Christian faith. Nor does it mean being irreligious or non-religious for Christians.The faith and loyalty to be true Christians lie in our hearts and not in supporting or going against a political party. It is peoples’ resolution and mandate to achieve economic independence which is referred to as second independence. Nagaland is at the mercy of central government for fund and PDS items and inclined towards a national political party which rules at
An appeal to the government with regard to Article 371 (A)
W
e all have very recently dealt with the problems which occured at the present ULB Election regarding the 33% reservation quota and the article 371 (A). 1. It is well known that Nagaland State is recognized with 16 major tribes and the customary law of all tribes is also different. The various political groups in Nagaland recognizes more than 40 sub-tribes along with their custom and usages. 2. Many people are not fully aware that this article 371 (A) was formulated to preserve the customary law and tradition of the Nagas. The Naga customary laws and usages are quite different from those off the mainland and such in order to preserve it Nagas should grasp the contents of 371 (A) Article. 3. As we all have faced the consequences in the last ULB Election which led to death of 3 Lives of the Nagas and the general refusal for such U.L.B. election, and if we don’t preserve the traditions and values of our land, then in future also we are going to face such problems and many more will be killed. 4. In every aspect of life, Nagas tradition, customs and usages are very different from those of the mainland. 5. We all know that many highly educated and the present generation are not aware of the contents of Article 371 (A) article which was signed between the Nagas and the Indian Government in Shillong Accord. 6. The G.B’s are an important component of the modern governance system in Nagaland and if the Nagas do not preserve and follow the 371 (A) article then the customary laws and tradaitions will vanish in the days to come. Often, without knowing the actual view of the 371 (A)the general public objects to the value and importance of the G.B.’s in Nagaland. In this present context, I would like to appeal the Government of Nagaland to give more importance of the contents of Article 371 (A) by way of publishing it in the official Gazette and also in the subject of schools class 8 and above compulsory so as to enable the present generation to be aware of the true contents of 371 (A) of the constitution and to preserve the Naga customary law.

the center. Time, opinion and choice of people also change alongside. India is a matured and vibrant democratic nation and the level of expectation from its people have always been high.So it is natural that they would desire to electleaderswho are more competent and selflessly committed to the people. And by doing so distrusted leaders and their parties are voted out.India has a multi- party system and parties will come andgo at both the center and the states and no party will ever rule India for a century. Since Nagaland is a federal state of the union of India it is bound to be constitutionally administrated within the system. Our fellow Christian leaders are expected to act with maturity while dealing with communal unrest and not publicly react on mere concoction purported by dissidence. They should properly verify the allegation in case of any discrimination and violation of rights against minority community and take up the matter with the apex authority supported with proof and evidence. If top BJP party leaders could be booked under the law, then any one can be under the law. Persons who are falsely spreading hatred massage to create communal tension or gain political mile age too can be awarded penalty.We should stand fortruth. It is a matter for all of us to pay attention and ponder over and introspect as to why Nagaland is one of the most corrupt states in India with 95% Christian population.Cannot wetell more truth and become less corrupt? How can we be true Christians when we are more corrupt than others? Christianity has preached mankind to live with truth, love, humility, peace and harmony and not with corruption, falsification, fornication, arrogance and pride. Corruption is a social evil and has no religion. Christians should learn from a Hindu PM of India who is toiling day and night to eliminate corruption, install good governance, initiate all round development and eradicate poverty. These are some tasks which a Christian state like Nagaland should have been performing since long back. K. Thong (Achilo)
he common man in this country is confused. The ruling pray in this country; the Bharathiya Janatha Party, has spared no efforts to convince the nation that their motto is sab ke sat sab ka vikas which may be translated as development with the cooperation of all, or in other words; ‘all things to all people’. If development is accessible to all and no citizen is excluded for what so ever reason, every Indian should be feeling good, the ecstatic feeling of ‘Acche din’which is the other motto of the ruling party. Unfortunately, the reality is that, a section of the people are anxious, afraid, confused. They belong to minority communities; ethnic, religious linguistic and cultural. The events, policy decisions that followed the victory of the ruling party makes it amply clear that, all means the majority, development means following the ancient customs of the majority be they linguistic, religious or ethnic. The manner in which the ruling party uses f the fanatic fringe organizations of Hindu religion, makes an independent observer doubt the sincerity of the BJP leadership in their commitment to honour the constitution of India by which they swore, as well as the values of democracy that they are bound to uphold. The BJP came to power with the active support of these extreme elements of Hinduism, and these elements are demanding their pound of flesh. The cow vigilantism, yoga vigilantism are the expressions of the fanatic elements that propelled the BJP to power. Remember Kaikeayi, one of the wives of Dasratha, who forced him to crown his son in place of Rama, the legal heir....? Epics do not lie! Extremists, be they from religion, politics, moral or cultural affiliation, are a small percentage in the society. Since the good people are in different and inactive, the extremist elements carry the day. They will create slogans, propagate ideology and
recruit volunteers to achieve their end. Past glory and present threat to retain the past glory are the driving forces behind their actions. The minorities in India have some reasons to believe the BJP leadership, for there are many an honourable men and women among them. Will this men and women stand up to the machinations of the fanatic elements and provide a credible leadership that will focus on the development of all? As Christians, we have reasons for our suspicion. Soon after the BJP came to power, the Government of India declared 25th December as ‘Good Governance Day’. Last year the Good Friday was made a working day for Judges to have some deliberations on Judicial reform. This year it was declared as Digital India Day. Is the GOI using such occasions as a sounding board to test the inauguration of Ramrajya? Just like other minority groups we doubt the sincerity of the BJP leadership. All the platitudes and lip service paid to democracy and development I looks could be the just the ‘Hug of Drithrastra!’ Nagaland has many temples; the Hindus have their worship and religious celebrations without harassment from any Christian organizations. Unfortunately, this is not the case in some part of India, where the religious organizations in the name of Hinduism damages Christian places of worship, assault Christians, and frame false charges against them. There is a church and temple sharing the boundary in one of the colonies of Dimapur. The Dimapur Christian Forum requests the individuals and leaders of Hindu faith to share this good news with their counterparts in other parts of India. This might be a small contribution they can to SAB KE SAT AND SAB KA VIKAS. Rev. R.P Murry, chairman, Dimapur Christian Forum & Fr. Chacko Karinthayil, secretary DCF
Indo-Naga Peace Process (From previous issue) On January 23, 1993 the NSCN was admitted as the representative of the Nagas to the Unrepresented Nations and peoples Organization (UNPO) and the Naga National Flag was hoisted at the UNPO office in the Hague (Netherlands). Naga Civil Societies Organizations such as Naga Hoho, Naga Student’s Federation, Naga Peoples Movement for Human Rights, Naga Mothers Association, Naga Woman Union and Naga Churches have been largely responsible for creating awareness and educating the international community including Indian Civil Society organization on the Naga people and their struggle for their rights. Against all odds, these organization have let the international community know that the Indo-Naga issue is not Indian’s internal problem of law and order; but an unresolved political issue with geo-political implication requiring political negotiation for a peaceful solution. It is through their efforts and endeavors that Naga have reached out to the world and fostered relationship with them in the effort for Naga to live in dignity and peace. Yet another opportunity to resolve the Indo-Naga political line through peaceful means was shredded. It would take another 33 years and the loss of thousands of lives before the Government of India and the Naga Movement entered into a bi-lateral ceasefire agreement in 1997. i). Without any condition ii). At the Prime Minister’s level iii). In a third country WORDS AND ASSURANCE OF THE INDIAN PRIME MINISTERS: 1. On the 12 June 1995 in Paris, France: The NSCN Collective Leadership met late Mr. P. V. Narashimla Rao: He said, “I believe in political solution. We must solve the problem through political talks and dialogue., We should be patient and tolerant in tackling the problem”. 2. On 3rd February 1997; The NSCN Collective Leadership met H.D.Deve Gowda in Zurich, Switzerland. Deve Gowda said, “We believe in
peaceful means. We must seek peaceful political solution.” 3.On 30th September 1998: The NSCN Collective Leadership met A.B.Vajpayee in Paris, France. Vajpayee said, “ I believe in peaceful Political solution; Violence and military solution is ruled out. We must seek political solution because it is a political issue”. 4. On 8th December 2002: The NSCN Leader met A.B. Vajpayee in Osaka, Japan. He said, “ We are serious, we must solve the problem by peaceful means. We must have patience”. 5. On 10th January 2003: Meeting with A.B Vajpayee in New Delhi, India. Vajpayee assured to the Naga delegation headed by the Collective Leadership, “ Peace process will continue. A new chapter is going to be opened”. 6. On 7th December 2004: Meeting with Dr.Manmohan Singh in New Delhi, India. He said to the NAga delegation headed by the Collective Leadership, “We are equally keen to work out mutually acceptable honorable solution. We will be sincere in tackling the problem. We will give our utmost effort to hammer out honorable solution. We will explore jointly every possible way to bring solution. Yes, it has to be brought mutual discussion and understanding so that solution acceptable to both parties is arrived at. 7. On 9th February 2005: Meeting with Dr. Manmahon Singh in New Delhi, India. PM. said to the Naga delegation headed by the Collective Leadership, “I have deputed three ministers to talk with you. We are sincere and serious we could solve the problem. The pattern of relationship should be worked out”. 8. On June 24, 2005: Th.Muivah, the Chief Negotiator met Dr. Manmahon Singh in New Delhi at his office residence. The meeting was one to one talk between Chief Negotiator and Prime Minister: P.M said, “We are serious, sincere and have confidence that we could solve the problem through peaceful means. You have to be patient with us. We have started taking
every positive step. We do not under rate your issue. This is our assurance” In spite of the progress made, the fragility of the peace process continues to be tested at all level and demands immense wisdom and integrity from both sides. The Naga Civil Societies and traditional organizations supporting the Peace Process have continued to seek opportunities and initiatives to strengthen political negotiations for a democratic and honorable settlement. The NSCN has also taken initiative to hold consultations with Naga Civil Societies representative including all the Naga tribal Councils and Churches. In the consultations with the NSCN, the Naga Civil Societies has extended its full support to the ongoing Peace Process between India and NSCN. The NSCN in return has made a clarion call to every Naga, Irrespective of their past and standing , to participate in the peace process. The consultations are an ongoing process to deepen the understanding between the NSCN and Naga civil society and to ensure that,
the NSCN embodies the fullest aspiration and rights of the Naga while negotiating with India. It is also the expressed will and desire of the Naga for their ancestral land to be united once more into ONE geo-political entityNagalim. Nagas live on their own land that belongs to them nothing less than that, nothing more than that! Nagas have lived in these territories from time immemorial. These are not claims but facts. The aspiration of the Nagas to live together is nothing unusual but natural. Nagas will certainly continue to live in their lands forever, but it is also a, historical fact that Nagalim has been kept divided arbitrarily by the British and the Indian State. The Nagas, for the fullest realization of their identity and rights, therefore desire the unification of their land which is at the heart of their existence. It implies the desired will of the Nagas to have the freedom to decide the fate of their own destiny. (Concluded) Hukavi Yepthomi Kilonser NSCN/GPRN

Sir,
Revival at Wokha town
During the Lotha Baptist Churches Association revival meeting held in Wokha town, a huge pandal 300ft x 150ft with 10,000 seating capacity was constructed at public ground, Wokha town. The programme started from April 21 and culminated on April 23 under the theme “Revive us O Lord” (Psalms 85:6). During the revival it rained heavily which according to the ancestors, legends and history records indicates good fortune because during any festival or ceremony if it rained they believed that zenith fortune would come later and it is quite true. Fortune will come to Lothas in particular and Nagas in general due to the revival at Wokha. Therefore we must earnestly pray to Almighty God, because word of God says, nothing is impossible with God, everything is possible with God. (Matthew 19:26) (Mark 10:27) (Luke 18:27). The word of God says, ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you and shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you (Matthew 7:7-8). If you have faith and pray you say unto the mountain be removed and be cast into the sea, it shall be done and all things whatever you shall ask in prayer, believing you shall receive (Matthew 21:21-22). Jesus Christ said, I am the resurrection and life, who believes in me shall never die (John 11:25-26). R.K.

New Delhi, Apr 29 (PTI): Gold prices maintained an upward trend for the third day today, gaining Rs 70 to Rs 29,550 per 10 grams at the bullion market, amid firm global cues and increased buying by local jewellers. On the other hand, silver remained under selling pressure and dropped further by Rs 275 to Rs 40,225 per kg due to offtake from industrial units and coin makers. Traders said apart from a firming trend overseas, persistent buying by local jewellers to meet ongoing wedding season demand at domestic spot market helped gold make headway.

ance level too should rise. “Legal compliances of taxation and currency laws have been a feature of the developed states. If you go to the developed world, violations are rare, but those who violate are strictly called upon and answerable to the law. There are strict penal consequences,” he pointed out. Despite being conventional in their societal attitude, Indians have never considered non-compliance with taxation and currency law as “morally improper” and instead it was considered as a “smart” act. “And that is what leads to excessive dealing with cash economy, excessive non-compliance,” the minister noted. Jaitley said the total budgeted tax revenue collection of over Rs 19 lakh crore would have gone up if there were compliance in India and this money could have been used for funding education, healthcare, the poor and in betterment of infrastructure.
New Delhi, Apr 29 (IANS): The government is closely monitoring around nine lakh registered companies that had stopped filing annual tax returns with the Corporate Affairs Ministry after their registration, Union Revenue Secretary Hasmukh Adhia said on Saturday. “Out of 15 lakh registered companies, only six lakh are filing annual income tax returns. Eight to nine lakh companies stopped filing any returns after their registration and they have become a potential threat of money laundering,” he said in his address at the Enforcement Directorate Day here. He also said that a task force set up by the Prime Minister Office is also monitoring these companies closely on a fortnight basis. “We have given notice to some of these companies considering them a big source of money laundering and are in close coordination with the task force set up by the PMO.” Adhia said that Rs 6,000 crore Bank of Baroda

(also changes) from a tax non-compliant society to a highly-compliant society. Once that were to happen, I think the fear of the law and the fear of the consequences visiting us itself will ensure compliance takes place,” he said. Jaitley referred to technological advances, saying technology has provided tools to detect violations, and provisions under the PMLA and the FEMA have rules of evidence that can help take cases to the logical conclusion. “Once we are able to make an example of some of these offenders, I think others then will realise the benefits of compliance of law,” he added. He hoped the ED will “strictly enforce the law in our endeavour to raise legitimate revenue which is in larger public interest which can only be achieved by ensuring voluntary compliances of people”. Jaitley also called for introspection saying that as India evolves, the compli-

exchange with a sense of trust, he said serious offence of money laundering, including using hawala channels, flight of capital out of the country, round tripping of funds and creation of shell companies to avoid taxes have become a “very standardised practice”. Jaitley said these violations are not difficult to detect and scrutiny of filing with registrar of companies can also lead to the detection. “The entire route of multilayering through which the money laundering takes place... it is matter of a few minutes to detect how the violation takes place,” he cautioned. The finance minister termed money laundering, round tripping, tax evasion and creation of shell companies as a serious offence as the money meant for eduction, healthcare, rural development is being taken away. “Our target has to be to make sure India as it evolves from a developing to developed economy

New Delhi, Apr 29 (PTI): Finance Minister Ar un Jaitley Saturday vowed to make an example of money launderers and tax evaders, saying penalising powers of economic crime-fighting agency ED should be used “expeditiously” in cases of noncompliance. Speaking at the Enforcement Day here, he called on the agency to “strictly” enforce law to help the exchequer raise legitimate revenue. He felt that non-compliance of tax laws has always hit the larger public and national interest. “And that is why the revenue department and the ED have a very important role to play,” he emphasised. “There is an expectation of compliance and in the event of non-compliance, there is the power of penalising that the ED has. This power has to be expeditiously used whenever violations are detected.” Stating that the government has given citizens the right to deal in foreign

N Korea missile test fails: US
mand (NORAD) determined the missile launch from North Korea did not pose a threat to North America, Benham said. “US Pacific Command stands behind our steadfast commitment to the security of our allies in the Republic of Korea and Japan,” he said. According to reports, the missile was likely a medium-range KN-17 ballistic missile. The North Korea missile test came a day after the Tr u m p a d m i n i s t r a t i o n praised China and its President Xi for having prevailed over Pyongyang in not carrying out either a nuclear test or a missile test.
Sending a tough warning to North Korea, the US yesterday said the policy of strategic patience was over and no options were off the table in dealing with the nuclear threat posed by Pyongyang.
China-US meet amid tensions in Korean peninsula

EU adopts tough Brexit talks stance B RU S S E L S, A P R 2 9 (AFP): European Union leaders unanimously adopted their Brexit strategy at a special summit in Brussels today, in a show of unity ahead of two years of tough talks with Britain. The 27 leaders quickly agreed on the negotiating guidelines as they met without Britain for the first time since Prime Minister Theresa May triggered the divorce process a month ago. They say talks on a future trade deal with Britain can only start once London agrees divorce terms on citi-
zens’ rights, its exit bill and Northern Ireland. “Guidelines adopted unanimously. EU27 firm and fair political mandate for the Brexit talks is ready,” EU President Donald Tusk said on Twitter, shortly after the summit began. Leaders adopted the guidelines, unchanged, within one minute, an EU source said. Tusk earlier said leaders “need to remain united as the EU 27” but said it was “also in Britain’s interest” if unity boosted the chances of a swift Brexit deal. May this week accused
the EU of ganging up on London, in a war of words with German Chancellor Angela Merkel who said Britain had “illusions” about the talks. Brexit has offered the EU a fresh chance at unity after years of bitter internal divisions over the euro and migration, although many still fear they could fall out during the talks. French President Francois Hollande said as he arrived that “the aim of the summit is unity”, adding that “there will inevitably be a price and a cost for Britain.”

PARIS, APR 29 (IANS): French Front National (FN) presidential candidate Marine Le Pen announced on Saturday that she would appoint defeated first-round candidate Nicolas DupontAignan as her Prime Minister if she is elected President. Le Pen, 48, spoke in Paris at a joint press conference with Dupont-Aignan, 56, leader of the Debout la France (Arise France) movement, the sixth most-voted political formation during the April 23 presidential first round, with 1.7 million votes. At said press conference both leaders formalised a national pact whereby if Le Pen wins the May 7 elections, Dupont-Aignan will be appointed Le Pen’s Prime Minister. Dupont-Aignan is a former member of the rightcentre party Les Republicains. This is the first time the FN has entered such an alliance as Le Pen’s party has been traditionally shunned by the rest of the French political spectrum as a xenophobic and antidemocratic party, Efe news reported. “Nicolas Dupont-Aig-
Marine Le Pen
nan is a sincere and demanding patriot. He has shown his willingness to abandon the comfort zone” said Le Pen. According to polls, Le Pen has 40 per cent of the intended vote versus the 60 per cent estimate favourable to Emmanuel Macron, who is also supported by the French traditional republican (centre-right) and socialist parties. Dupont-Aignan, mayor of the Commune of Yerres, a southeastern suburb of Paris, admitted differences with Le Pen, mainly in economic matters (euro and import taxes) but also said that they have many affinities such as a mutual love of France. “I invite all French to join us in saving our country. This movement is growing” said Dupont-Aignan.
Asean leaders’ summit opens in Manila MANILA, APR 29 (IANS): Southeast Asia leaders gathered here on Saturday to exchange views on how to further strengthen and make the 50-yearold Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) relevant amid challenges confronting the world. “Guided by our chairmanship theme - Partnering for Change, Engaging the World - we are drawn today to reaffirm our aspiration for an Asean that works to effect positive change in the lives of our peoples,” Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte said at the opening of the day-long summit. Asean members are Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, Xinhua news agency reported. Duterte will chair the 30th Asean summit plenary and the retreat of the 10 leaders that are taking place on Saturday. On the political and security front, Duterte cited traditional and non-traditional security issues that test Asean’s resolve to promote peace, stability, security and prosperity in the region.

to reduce tensions in the Korean peninsula through dialogue as they met on the sidelines of a Security Council ministerial meeting. The meeting came just hours before North Korea test-fired another ballistic missile but it “failed” to go beyond its territory. “All parties have reiterated the goal of denuclearisation and have promised to strictly implement relevant Security Council resolutions and to resolve the issue through peaceful dialogue and negotiation so as to ease tensions as soon as possible,” a report on the Wang-Tillerson meeting in the Chinese state-run Xinhua news agency said. During the meeting, Tillerson was quoted as saying that the two sides have launched cooperation in a constructive way on international and regional issues including the nuclear issue of the Korean Peninsula, by which the United States was encouraged. The United States was looking forward to working with China to hold highlevel dialogues in various areas, enhance communication, strengthen cooperation and confront challenges, Tillerson said.

WASHINGTON/ UNITED NATIONS, APR 29 (PTI): North Korea testfired a ballistic missile but it failed to go beyond its territory, the US said today, as Pyonyang’s defiant move amid repeated warnings from Washington ratcheted up tensions in the Korean Peninsula. “The US Pacific Command detected what we assess was a North Korean missile launch at 10:33 AM Hawaii time, April 28. The ballistic missile launch occurred near the Pukchang airfield,” Dave Benham, United States Pacific Command spokesman, said in a statement. “The missile did not leave (the) North Korean territory,” Benham said. Responding to the development, US President Donald Trump slammed North Korea for the provocative move. “North Korea disrespected the wishes of China and its highly respected President (Xi Jinping) when it launched, though unsuccessfully, a missile today. Bad!” Trump said in a tweet last night, hours after North Korea carried out yet another missile test. The North American Aerospace Defence Com-

Pune dash RCB’s hopes of play-offs Pune, Apr 29 (PTI): Formidable Royal Challengers Bangalore led by India captain Virat Kohli became first team to be thrown out of contention for play-offs after a humiliating 61-run defeat against Rising Pune Supergiant in an IPL encounter, here Saturday. Although the RCB bowlers managed to keep the Pune batsmen under a tight leash restricting them to 157 for three but another shoddy batting performance saw them finish at a dismal 96 for 9 after 20 overs. While Pune kept themselves in contention with their fifth win in nine games, RCB are practically out of the tournament with their seventh defeat in 10 games and only five points in their kitty. Pune bowlers rose to the occasion defending a sub-par total with a controlled bowling performance. Imran Tahir was the pick of the bowlers with figures of
3/18 from four overs, while Lockie Ferguson claimed 2/7 in four overs to claim the Man of the match award. Jaydev Unadkat, Daniel Christian and Washington Sundar took one wicket each. Chasing a modest 158, Bangalore just kept losing wickets despite skipper Kohli holding his ground at one end. Apart from Kohli, who came up with an uncharacteristic 48ball-55, studded with four boundaries and a six, none of the other RCB batsmen could reach the double-digit mark. Earlier, RCB bowlers dominated the proceedings from the word go after inviting the Pune outfit to take first strike, with left-arm spinner Pawan Negi returning with impressive figures of 1/18 from his 4 overs. Stuart Binny (1/17) and Samuel Badree (1/31) chipped in with wicket apiece. Skipper Steven Smith top scored with 32-ball-45 that included five boundar-

ies and a six, while Manoj Tiwary (44 no, 35 balls) and opener Rahul Tripathi (37) also made important contributions. Even Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who hit a huge
six and a boundary during his unbeaten 21 off 17 failed to increase the tempo in the final overs. Dhoni and Tiwary could put up only 46 runs in the last five overs.

Khanakhurü Students’ Union with their trophy and organisers after the closing ceremony on Saturday.
Dimapur, Apr 29 (NPN): Khanakhurü Students’ Union (KSU) was Saturday crowned the champions of 5th Frolic Cup while Kuki Youth Club belted the runners up title. It was a battle of old foes as the two teams clashed once more in a tightened ring. The two teams had met thrice in earlier editions of the tournament although the encounters were not in the final. The vibrant rush of adrenalin was all the more
visible as thousands dared themselves to witness the heated finals under a dry, soaring mercury at local ground, Medziphema. Once the much anticipated match was whistled in, roars of support rendered the air and players of both KSU and KYC’B’ sprinted into the game to find opportunities through gaps. KSU immediately gained more control with their experience and amid tackles and attempts from both sides, KSU finally
broke the deadlock from the boots of Rhitso towards the dying minutes of the first half. In the second half, it was a spirited KYC ‘B’ who jolted their opponents with surprise play and began to completely dominate the match. KYC’s innumerable exposure accentuated by exceptional talents aided them like never before as they skillfully drifted into the closer yards of KSU on a number of occasions. Apart from corners and free
kicks, which were abundant, both sides exerted pressure on one another to create difference in goals but as fate would have it, KSU could not find the net despite the many shots within close range. It was an all out game for a relentless KSU who countered and thwarted every move of their opponents until the final whistle was blown. At the end of a full play time, KSU had emerged victorious from the lone goal of the final
match to be the champions while KYCB had to be contended as the runner-up. The champions received the coveted Frolic Cup with cash reward of Rs. 60,000 and certificates while the runners up received Rs. 30,000 with certificates.
