Information Team. According to the Indian Express newspaper, Indian and Myanmar military personnel carried out the joint military operation “Sunshine-1” in February and March and another, “Sunshine-2” from May 16 to June 8. The two military operations captured eight military outposts and arrested around 80 rebels, the paper reported. India and Myanmar have held regular meetings on border security since February this year, BrigGen Zaw Min Tun said. “Around four or five months ago, we arrested Assam and Meitei rebels who had undergone training in Myanmar. So, we launched an investigation and found that they were stationed in the areas controlled by the NSCN-K. We carried out
clearance operations and issued a press statement about it,” he told The Irrawaddy. Speaking to The Irrawaddy on condition of anonymity, a source close to the NSCN (K) also denied there had been any joint military operations between India and Myanmar. T h e Ta t m a d aw ’s Northwestern Command raided the headquarters of the NSCN (K) in the Naga Self-Administered Zone of Sagaing Division on Jan. 29, and later arrested Assam and Meitei rebels from there. The Tatmadaw filed a complaint against 24 rebels under Article 17(1) of the Unlawful Association Act. At their sixth hearing, the Hkamti District Court sentenced them to two years in prison. According to the Tatmadaw, the jailed rebels belong to the Manipur People’s Army (MPA), the ULFA, Kanglei Yawol Kanna Lup (KYKL), the People’s Liberation Army of Manipur (PLA) and the People’s Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PREPAK). Five senior NSCN (K)
leaders are also facing trial. Their seventh court hearing is scheduled for June 21. Major-General Tun Tun Nyi of the Myanmar military said at a press conference in early June that the Tatmadaw would continue fighting armed groups who are staging rebellions against the Indian government. New Delhi has declared the NSCN-K, KLO, U L FA , N D F B, M PA , KYKL and PLA unlawful associations. The Myanmar government signed a regional level ceasefire agreement with the NSCN-K in April 2012.

TYNA public forum oppose shifting of polytechnic Crackdown: 15 revenue officials dismissed on charges of graft
DIMAPUR, JUN 18 (NPN): Tamlu Yongnyah Namsang Area (TYNA) Public Forum of Longleng district has petitioned Higher & Technical Education (H&TE) minister Temjen Imna Along against shifting the alreadyinaugurated Government Polytechnic Institute from Yungho Yongnyah in Longleng district to Hukpang in the same district without any valid ground. In a memorandum to the minister, the forum said it had come to its notice that the government had on October 5, 2018 reapproved the decision of September 26, 2016 to relocate the institute by superseding the earlier administrative approval of June 17, 2016. The forum said it violated Phom People’s Council (PPC) resolution No.
3 of November 25, 2015 that stated that “any means of government projects, schemes and funds should not be diverted nor shifted from one place to another (District Hq./ Sub Division/ EAC Headquarters and villages) and vice versa and all developmental funds should be judiciously utilized”. Stating that people of Tamlu, Yongnyah, and Namsang area were totally dejected with the government’s irrational step and its indifferent attitude, the memorandum mentioned that people of the area held an emergency consultative meeting under the aegis of TYNA Public Forum at Tamlu headquarters on Tuesday. The meeting unanimously resolved to serve representation to the government to uphold the gov-
ernment order of June 17, 2016 in letter and spirit and extend non-cooperation to PPC until such time when the council gave a representation to the government reaffirming and upholding its November 25, 2015 resolution No. 3, the memorandum added. TYNA Public Forum pointed out that the government, with the knowledge of chief minister and H&TE minister, had earlier surveyed and approved Yungho Yongnyah as the site for setting up the polytechnic institute after considering all feasibilities. The forum claimed that there were ample justifications and was also legally justified to set up the proposed institute at the site where the government first surveyed and approved. Mentioning that this
was only “constitutional, democratic, symbolic and preliminary expression of public resentment” against the government’s alleged indifferent attitude towards the area, the memorandum warned that this would be followed by several successive large-scale agitation programmes, if the government did not accede to the genuine demand of the residents of TYNA. The public forum also cautioned that in any eventuality arising out of this, creating disunity among the Phom community in particular and ENPO area in general, the department concerned would be held fully responsible. The memorandum was signed by TYNA Public Forum president Büphei Phom and general secretary V Longba Phom and 24 VCCs.
NEW DELHI, JUN 18 (AGENCIES): Barely a week after 12 Income-Tax officers were sacked on charges of corruption, forgery and professional misconduct, besides demoting four Joint Commissioner rank I-T officers to Deputy Commissioner rank over charges of corruption, the Central government dismissed 15 senior custom and central excise officers Tuesday on the grounds of corruption and bribery in what appears to a second round of crackdown on revenue officials. Sources in the Finance ministry said that the dismissed officers either had corruption cases already registered against them or were “involved” in bribery, extortion and disproportionate assets cases. “In exercise of the
powers conferred by clause (j) of rule 56 of the Fundamental Rules, the President of India has retired 15 Officers of Indian Revenue Service (C&CE) in public interest with immediate effect on completing 50 years of age,” a Finance Ministry tweet said. “All these 15 officers shall be paid a sum equivalent to the amount of pay and allowances for a period of 3 months calculated at the same rate at which they were supposed to be withdrawing them (pay & allowances) immediately before their retirement,” the tweet said. Rule 56(j) of the Fundamental Rules allows the appropriate authority to retire any government servant, in public interest, by giving notice of three months.
Among those dismissed include Principal Commissioner Anup Srivastava, who was serving as Principal ADG (Audit) in the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) in Delhi, and Joint Commissioner Nalin Kumar, the order said. Sources said that the Central Bureau of Investigation, which registered a criminal conspiracy case against Srivastava in 1996, had accused him of doing favours to a housing society that was illegally trying to obtain NOC for land purchases. He also was booked in a bribery case in 2012, this one supposedly involving an importer trying to evade duties. He also had complaints of selective arrests, harassment and extortion against (Cont’d on p-8) him. K Y M C

Mnp observes 18th anniversary of June uprising AN-32 crash: ops to retrieve bodies
IMPHAL, Jun 18: Manipur on Tuesday observed the 18th Great June Uprising Unity Day in Imphal’s Kekrupat, remembering the uprising in the wake of extension of ceasefire agreement between NSCN(IM) and government of India “without territorial limit”. Tens of thousands of people from all walks of life braved the heat and sizzling summer weather of the day to pay homage to those who died in the movement for protection of territorial integrity of Manipur 18 years ago. Among them were state revenue minister Karam Shyam, education minister Th Radheshyam and chief minister N Biren Singh’s wife Heiyanu. Some other MLAs also turned up to pay floral tribute to the martyrs who sacrificed their life for the protection of territorial integrity of Manipur. The main memorial function was jointly organised by United Committee Manipur (UCM) and AMUCO (All Manipur United Clubs’ Organisa-

tion) with a public meeting at the public ground near the memorials erected at Kekrupat. On this day in 2001, people of Manipur agitated in protest against the ‘without territorial limit’ clause that was included in the infamous “Bangkok Declaration” as a part of the peace talk between Indian Government and NSCN (IM). The protestors destroyed and set on fire the Manipur Legislative Assembly building, offices of political parties and several quarters of the then ministers and MLAs. In an attempt to control the outrage, security forces resorted to firing in which
18 persons were killed. Since then, the day has been observed as the June 18 Great June Uprising and Unity Day. The function started from early morning. Thousands of people from different communities including students of various schools converged at Kekrupat and paid their homage to the departed souls of the 18 ‘martyrs’. Leaders belonging to civil organisations and from different communities spoke on the occasion, recounting the heroic acts of the ‘martyrs’. The speakers reminded that all the communities residing in Manipur are
like brothers and sisters and appealed to maintain peace, harmony and unity. They also appealed and pledged to stand against any force that may affect or disturb the territorial integrity of the state. AMUCO president, Ph Devan Sharma said that people of the state were still protecting the territorial integrity of the state despite efforts of various forces to disintegrate Manipur. He alleged that even India government was interfering to disturb the unity and integrity of Manipur by its divide and rule policy. The enactment of different laws in hills and valley of the state was the standing example, he added. The observance of the 18th Great June Uprising and Unity Day has reminded the government of India and other forces that people of the state are standing firm for the territorial integrity of the state, he said. Recalling the mass uprising, UCM president Sunil Karam reminded India government not to repeat such incident hurting the sentiment of the people of the state, stating that people
of the state were always ready to sacrifice their live for the territorial integrity of Manipur. He alleged that India government challenged the territorial integrity of the state repeatedly and said that GoI must stop such activities. “If India government continue to do so, people of the state may take a decision to restore the political status of pre-merger of Manipur to India,” he said. Leaders of various communities and tribes who spoke at the public meeting also called for not disturbing the peace and harmony of the people of the state. President of Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM) Khaimang Chongloi said that Manipur belongs to different ethnic groups residing together in harmony since time immemorial. He expressed disappointment over prevailing unrest situation of the BJPled coalition government, stating that it was at a time while crucial issues like Citizenship (Amendment) Bill and framework agreement are in the fore of the people.
NEW DELHI/itanaga r , J U N 1 8 ( P T I / agencies): The operation to retrieve the bodies of the 13 air warriors on board the ill-fated AN-32 aircraft that crashed in Arunachal Pradesh remained suspended Tuesday, even as a ground team comprising Garud commandos, civilian porters and hunters was on its way to the site on foot, IAF officials said. Shillong-based IAF spokesperson Wing Commander Ratnakar Singh said the first segment of this trekking party which left on Monday is likely to reach the accident site on Tuesday. "Due to bad weather and clouds we could not undertake the retrieval operation today as well. Our helicopters were on the lookout for a window to fly but could not. But we are leaving no stone unturned in our attempts to retrieve the bodies," he said. Helicopters, including Mi-17s, Cheetah and ALH have been unable to approach the site during the last three days because of inclement weather in the valleys and cloud cover over the crash site, officials
‘Central leaders to solve crisis within ruling BJP’
Hek seeks Rs 37.80 cr from Centre to improve healthcare
IMPHAL, Jun 18: Minister Th Bishwajit who is believed to be leaders of rebel BJP MLAs on Tuesday said BJP national leaders will come to the state to resolve the crisis within the ruling party soon. Bishwajit was among some ministers and MLAs of ruling BJP and its partners who returned to Imphal from New Delhi where both rebelling MLAs and supporters of chief minister N Biren Singh were camped. State health minister L Jayentakumar of NPP, K h a s h i m Ru i va h a n d Awangbou Newmai of NPF and some MLAs of BJP have returned today. Talking to reporters after his arrival at the Imphal Airport in the afternoon, minister Th Bishwajit challenged the charges levelled by the chief minister to power and works departments for the overdraft the state has been facing. He said overdraft was not a new thing for the state government, adding that during the Congress government, overdraft was also witnessed repeatedly and it was not the first for the incumbent government too.
S H I L LO N G, J U N 1 8 (AGENCIES): Meghalaya health minister A.L. Hek has sought a financial support of Rs 37.80 crore from the Centre for strengthening the healthcare services in the state. Health minister Hek also sought the Centre’s support for establishing a training institute to conduct training for both technical and non-technical staff of the state’s health department. The financial support was sought by health minister Hek, who urged the Centre through union health minister Dr Harsh Vardhan when he submitted a memorandum to him in New Delhi. In the memorandum, Hek outlined the state’s requirement for funds which

The only problem was that this time it was exposed it like a scam by pointing fingers to power and works departments for withdrawals of excessive amounts. Being minister in-charge of the two departments “I am not happy,” he said Allegation of over withdrawals by power and works departments was “absolutely wrong”. It was an “allegation,” he said. “Let us wait. Truth will come out in due course of time,” he added. The minister who was targeted by the chief minister by removing power and works portfolios denied existence of “dissidence” group within the BJP MLAs. However, he said that that the prevailing crisis in the government will be solved by the Central leaders. “Central leaders will come and solve the crisis within the ruling party,” he said, without disclosing any further details of the latest development in the week long crisis. Stating that it was natural to have disgruntled within a ruling party, he said “everything has to be sorted out by the party leaders”. Skipping queries from the reporters on change of
NPF’s term and condition of being a partner of the coalition government. NPF had not demanded more ministerial berth. But, I believed BJP will translate into action the term and condition which the party agreed at the time forming the coalition government, he said. On the other hand, state health minister who also returned to Imphal said that NPP ministers were unlikely to be affected if there was reshuffle in the BJP-led coalition government He said that from the BJP or chief minister’s side, no intimation regarding cabinet reshuffle was provided till date. Regarding the leadership change in the government, he said that it was upto the BJP and NPP has nothing to do with the crisis within the BJP. Mention may be made that following the leadership crisis within the BJP, ministers and MLAs of both NPP and NPF have also rushed to New Delhi and consulted with their leaders on the prevailing crisis within the BJP after some section of BJP MLAs revolt for replacing N Biren Singh as chief minister.

FAW infestation decreasing in Mizoram Aizawl, Jun 18 (PTI): The Fall Army Worm (FAW) outbreak that left a trail of destruction across the maize fields in Mizoram, is decreasing, the Joint Director of Agriculture Department, James Lalsiamliana, said on Wednesday. Lalsiamliana informed PTI that there is a chance of recovery of the infested crop, depending upon the severity of damage, control measures taken and application of fertilizers. “We are yet to be able to predict the extent of damage or possible recovery as the value of damage may differ, and actual value of damage or crop loss could be calculated after harvest of the cobs,” he said. As of today 10,049 maize farming families residing in 341 villages across eight districts in the state have been affected by the pest attack. The pest attack started in the first week of April. Out of a total of 4,729 hectare of land where maize was cultivated, a total of 3,016 hectare of land has been recorded as infested by the state agriculture department officials.

Regarding the removal of him being from the minister in-charge of works and power departments, Bishwajit said that removal of portfolio is in the prerogative of the chief minister. However, he was not happy with the move of the chief minister. He said that finance department was responsible for the overdraft that led to financial crisis in the state. He added that the overdraft problem will be over after June 21 as Centre has to release state share of Central taxes after the day (June 21). Facing the reporters at the Imphal Airport, NPF Manipur unit president MLA Awangbou Newmai said that NPF has nothing to do with the crisis in the BJP, the party leading the coalition government. He said that change of leadership was BJP’s internal matter. NPF has nothing to do with it. “It is the problem within the BJP and we have no comment on it,” he said.

The Blood Component Separation Unit at Tura is attached to the only blood bank which caters to the need of people in the five districts of the whole Garo Hills.

As strike end, SC defers hearing on security of docs
NEW DELHI, JUN 18 (PTI): The Supreme Court Tuesday deferred the hearing on a plea seeking protection of doctors in government hospitals, saying since doctors have called off their strike in West Bengal and other states, there is no urgency to hear the matter. A bench of Justices Deepak Gupta and Surya Kant said it will not issue notice (to the Centre) but is keeping the larger issue of protection of doctors open. “We agreed to hear the plea today as there was a strike by doctors and medical fraternity in West Bengal and other states. The strike has been called off and there appears no urgency to hear the petition. List (the matter) before an appropriate bench,” it said. Meanwhile, the In-
dian Medical Association also filed an impleadment application seeking the court’s intervention into the plea already filed, saying protection needs to be provided to doctors across the country. The bench said it needs to take a holistic view in providing security to doctors. “We understand it is a serious issue but we can’t provide security to doctors at the cost of other citizens.
We have to take a holistic view. We have to look at the larger picture. We are not against protection to doctors,” the bench said. Doctors in Bengal had been on strike since two of their colleagues were assaulted allegedly by relatives of a patient after he died last week. They called off their protest Monday night after Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in a meeting assured them of steps by her government to scale up security at state-run hospitals in the state. The breakthrough came on a day health services especially Outpatient Departments (OPDs) were crippled across the country as doctors held protests and boycotted work to show solidarity with their colleagues in Bengal.
Thousands join final journey of slain Army major in Meerut
Ketan Sharma (File)
MEERUT, JUN 18 (PTI): Thousands turned up to pay their last respects to Major Ketan Sharma, who was killed in an encounter with militants in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag, as his mortal remains were brought to his hometown Meerut in Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday. The 29-year-old officer was killed in an encounter in Achabal area of the south Kashmir district on Monday. A militant was also killed in the gun fight which broke out after the security forces launched a cordon-and-search operation in the area.
Sharma’s mortal remains were flown from Jammu and Kashmir to Delhi. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Army Chief General Bipin Rawat paid tributes to the slain officer at the Palam airport in the national capital before his mortal remains were taken to Meerut. The slain Armyman, who will be cremated in Surajkund later, was accorded a gun salute by his colleagues here. A pall of gloom descended on the slain officer’s residence in Kanker Kher area. Senior Army officers consoled Sharma’s family. State minister Suresh Rana also visited his house. Sharma’s father, Ravindra Kumar Sharma, said his son had returned to work on May 27 after a 20-day leave. Besides his parents, Sharma is survived by his wife and a five-year-old daughter.
Cong strategises on key issues ahead of PM’s meet with party chiefs NEW DELHI, JUN 18 (PTI): A meeting of the Congress top brass, including Sonia Gandhi and party chief Rahul Gandhi, was held here to decide the strategy on key matters such as Lok Sabha speaker’s election and Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call to discuss the ‘one nation, one election’ issue. Sources said the meeting, chaired by Congress Parliamentary Party leader Sonia Gandhi and attended by Rahul Gandhi and former prime minister Manmohan Singh, discussed the strategy to be adopted by the party during the meeting

called by the prime minister. Senior Congress leaders A K Antony, P Chidambaram, Ghulam Nabi Azad, Anand
Sharma, Jairam Ramesh, K Suresh, and Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, were among those present at the meeting
held at Sonia Gandhi’s residence 10, Janpath. Modi has invited heads of all parties who have an MP either in Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha for a meeting on Wednesday. The meeting has been called to discuss the “one nation, one election” issue, celebration of the 75 years of Independence in 2022 and 150 years of Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary this year. It will be followed by a dinner-meeting with all MPs on June 20. The strategy for the dinner-meeting was also discussed at the Congress meeting, sources said. The Congress top brass
also deliberated on the issue of Lok Sabha speaker’s election. Asked about two-time BJP MP Om Birla being the NDA nominee for the speaker’s post, Chowdhury, speaking to reporters after the meeting, said: “No problem, we won’t oppose anyone’s name.” Birla, who won from Kota-Bundi parliamentary seat in Rajasthan, will easily become the speaker as the National Democratic Alliance has a clear majority in the lower house.

Junior doctors resume work; hospital services back to normal in West Bengal
Relatives of patients stand outside the main gate of Calcutta Medical College and Hospital during the doctor’s strike, in Kolkata, Monday. (PTI)
KOLKATA, JUN 18 (PTI): Patients heaved a sigh of relief on Tuesday after junior doctors resumed work at all state-run hospitals following their week-long stir that had disrupted healthcare services across West Bengal. All the 14 medical college and hospitals in the state started functioning, with normal work resuming at outdoor facilities, pathological units and other departments. The patient turnout was high at all the hospitals, including the Nil Ratan Sircar (NRS) Medical College and Hospital, which was the epicentre of the junior doctors’ agitation. “Most of our colleagues have resumed work and they are helping the seniors in delivering regular services in the outpatient departments (OPD) since Tuesday morning,” a spokesperson of a joint forum of junior doctors
told PTI. Since many junior doctors were in Kolkata to take part in the agitation, they could not reach their workplaces in far-off areas on Tuesday morning, he said, adding, “They will resume work as soon as they reach the hospitals.” “It is a relief for us. We are poor and have no other option but to go to government hospitals. The stir had impacted our treatment. I am happy that it has been called off,” Ariful Haque from Malda district, who regularly visits the NRS hospital for the treatment of his brother’s cardiac ailments, said. Santanu Hazra, a thalassaemia patient undergoing treatment at the SSKM hospital in the city, was also happy with the doctors calling off their agitation and rejoining work. “It was a terrible experience last week when I
had to go back home almost everyday due to the agitation. I am financially not that sound to visit private hospitals. I am happy that my treatment has resumed,” he said. Private hospitals, which witnessed a low patient turnout and most doctors taking leave on Monday owing to a strike called by the Indian Medical Association (IMA), also saw a normal inflow of patients. The junior doctors called off their week-long strike on Monday night after meeting Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who assured them of steps to scale up security at the government hospitals in the state. The medicos were on strike since last Tuesday, protesting against the assault on two of their colleagues by the kin of a patient who died at the NRS Hospital and Medical College.

Activists protest outside Bihar Bhawan, seek CM resignation
Mamata skip party chiefs’ meet, asks govt to prepare white paper NEW DELHI/KOLKATA, JUN 18 (PTI): West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday excused herself from the scheduled meeting of Prime Minister Narendra Modi with the chiefs of political parties in Delhi on Wednesday, while asking the Centre to prepare a white paper on “one nation, one election”, instead of doing it “hurriedly”. Modi has invited the heads of all the political parties that have at least one member either in the Lok Sabha or in the Rajya Sabha for a meeting on June 19 to discuss several issues, including the “one nation, one election” idea, celebration of 75 years of Independence in 2022 and the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi this year.

With 22 Lok Sabha members, the Trinamool Congress (TMC), led by Banerjee, is the fourth-largest party in the Lower House of Parliament, along with the YSR Congress, which also has 22 members in the Lok Sabha. With 303 MPs, the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is the largest party in the Lok Sabha, followed by the Congress (52) and the DMK (23). In a letter to Parliamentary Affairs Minister Prahlad Joshi, Banerjee has said the matter of “one country, one election” required consultations with experts. “A proper response on such a sensitive and serious subject like “one country, one election” in such a short time would not do justice to the subject. The matter requires consultations with constitutional experts, election experts and above all, the party members.

NEW DELHI, JUN 18 (PTI): Several activists from different organisations staged a protest outside the Bihar Bhawan here Tuesday and demanded the resignation of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as more than 100 children have died due to Acute Encephalitis Syndrome (AES) in the state. They accused the Centre and the Bihar government of not being serious about containing the outbreak, and said the healthcare system in the state was mismanaged. Many held placards with the message “Give adequate compensation to affected families”. Other banners asked Kumar and Bihar Health Minister Mangal Pandey to resign. “Ayushman (Bharat) ki jumlebazi band karo,” another read.

Issue of bandhs
ays after the Western Sumi Hoho (WSH) had come down strongly against imposition of ‘lightning bandhs’ in Sumi-inhabited areas of Dimapur and also cautioning any organisation against issuing such diktats, the Naga Council Dimapur (NCD) has also come out in opposing such bandhs in Dimapur. Earlier the WSH expressed total opposition against making Dimapur and its citizens bear the brunt of any protest by associations or organisations against the state government in Kohima. Both the organisations –WSH and NCD- have made it clear that frequency of ‘lightning bandhs’ imposed over Dimapur only led to unwanted suffering brought on the people, who become unwilling victims besides disrupting normal lives.If a bandh was called on larger issues such as- law and order situation or even alleged infringement on Article 371A or over alleged injustice or maladministration, then it would be a different situation. It may be recalled that a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed in 22, 2005 pleaded that bandhs should be declared illegal and unconstitutional. The Gauhati High Court had listed out four broad parameters it planned to implement in order to promote antibandhism. It said that any party, organisation, group or individual calling for bandh will be served a notice under Section 149 Cr.PC, which will state the illegality of bandh. The notice will also state that the person or organisation calling for bandh will be liable for legal action for any loss of life, injury or property damage. The ruling is in conformity with the Supreme Court’s interpretation of the meaning and concept of one’s right to sponsor or observe bandh on any issue. In 1997, the apex court had banned all kinds of bandhs. Bandhs have become undemocratic expressions and therefore, the right of the people should be protected by all resources within the ambit of the law. There is a need to check the propensity of pressure groups or political parties in calling for bandhs at the drop of a hat and make people suffer. Such actions clearly violate the rights of the common people in pursuing their own calling or obligation. The reason why bandhs are deemed to be successful is that ordinary citizens, who are not organised, only know too well what happens if they don’t cooperate. Even vehicles and especially public transportation such as buses and trains, that have nothing to do with the issues raised have not been spared from being torched or damage by the insane wrath of the organised mobs. If bandhs and blockades are described (though wrongly) as democratic means of expressions and legitimate tools; then it leads to the conclusion that consequent violence and near-anarchy should also be acceptable. It is not simply about the right or not to organize bandh but an issue where bandhs are more often an avenue for anti social elements to harass innocent citizens. Also use of excessive force by state authorities to quell disturbances during bandhs is also unacceptable and cannot be condone under any circumstances. There is therefore, a need to prevent bandhs from becoming a tool to create law and order problems and inviting subsequent and even excessive response from the authorities. Both organisations in Dimapur, have made it clear that bandhs are unwelcome expressions of protests and so it needs to be welcomed by all so that the frail economy does not implode and invite negative consequences.
DailyDevotion Keep Recognizing Jesus …Peter…walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid… —Matthew 14:29-30 The wind really was boisterous and the waves really were high, but Peter didn’t see them at first. He didn’t consider them at all; he simply recognized his Lord, stepped out in recognition of Him, and “walked on the water.” Then he began to take those things around him into account, and instantly, down he went. Why couldn’t our Lord have enabled him to walk at the bottom of the waves, as well as on top of them? He could have, yet neither could be done without Peter’s continuing recognition of the Lord Jesus. We step right out with recognition of God in some things, then self-consideration enters our lives and down we go. If you are truly recognizing your Lord, you have no business being concerned about how and where He engineers your circumstances. The things surrounding you are real, but when you look at them you are immediately overwhelmed, and even unable to recognize Jesus. Then comes His rebuke, “…why did you doubt?” (Matthew 14:31). Let your actual circumstances be what they may, but keep recognizing Jesus, maintaining complete reliance upon Him. If you debate for even one second when God has spoken, it is all over for you. Never start to say, “Well, I wonder if He really did speak to me?” Be reckless immediately— totally unrestrained and willing to risk everything— by casting your all upon Him. You do not know when His voice will come to you, but whenever the realization of God comes, even in the faintest way imaginable, be determined to recklessly abandon yourself, surrendering everything to Him. It is only through abandonment of yourself and your circumstances that you will recognize Him. You will only recognize His voice more clearly through recklessness— being willing to risk your all.

ho is it that shapes history, particularly at this point in the human story? Is it the political and military leaders? Is it the Presidents, Prime Ministers, Generals, Revolutionaries, and other such folks? Is it the people with weapons in their hands or armies to command? Yes, sometimes. At least these are the ones our history books and the media focus on. But there are other shapers of history who often get less attention, namely, the people without the weapons. Whereas the guys with the guns (mostly men) get most of the attention, more and more it is the people without the guns who are leading humanity toward a more positive destiny. India saw this with the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi and Abdul Gaffar Khan in the struggle against British colonial rule. More recently the Nagas have seen this dynamic of unarmed People Power in their own struggle for identity, freedom, peace, and hope. All around the world in a wide variety of cultural and political contexts movements of people demanding change through nonviolent means have proven to be the most effective way to advance their cause. Not all of them succeed, but not all armed struggles succeed either. Erica Chenoweth in her landmark book Why Civil Resistance Works: The Strategic Logic of Nonviolent Conflict, through studies of every conflict around the world she could find from 1900 to 2006, has shown that nonviolent movements have been twice as effective as violent movements in reaching their political goals.
The shapers of history
So how has Naga history played out? An initial nonviolent struggle in the Gandhian model failed to bring Naga independence after the 1947 declaration of independence and the 1951 plebiscite. Violence erupted at horrific levels between the Indian army and Naga forces. Eventually following a failed peace process the Naga political groups split into factions and still more factions. Each faction claimed to represent the Naga cause, but they killed as many Nagas in the struggle as were being killed by the Indian Army. This struggle lasted for decades with no acceptable end in sight. Then Naga people without guns took their destiny into their own hands. A number of Naga leaders from church, human rights, business and other backgrounds began to organize for talks among the Naga factions for reconciliation, as well as push for a cease-fire with the Indian forces. The Atlanta Talks were held in 1997 with large demonstrations of support back in Nagaland. Those talks failed to bring all four of the Naga factions together at that time. However, they did set forth the goal of Naga reconciliation and a process driven by the broad desire of the Naga people to cease the factional fighting that was leaving so many Nagas dead and communities devastated. Then followed the massive gathering of the Naga Baptists to celebrate the 125th Anniversary of the Christian Gospel coming to the Naga people. In a public setting the desire for peace expressed by the people in mass prayer turned a formal 4-day cease-fire among the factions into
How the innocent are duped by insurgents
M
any innocent and gullible citizens from the North East, most of whom are very poor, have been conned by various extremist groups and used for menial jobs, instead. Having promised good pay and perks by ULFA, these innocent people have been made to undertake hard labour and made to live amidst extremely hostile conditions. This came to light when three cadres of the outlawed National Democratic Front of Boroland (Songibijit) NDFB (S) were apprehended by Village Guards of Upper Dan, Tuensang District, Nagaland on 11 Jun 19. The three had escaped from the NDFB militant camp in Myanmar and were found disoriented and in poor physical state at the time of their apprehension along the Indo-Myanmar Border. On being provided with food and comfort, the three broke down and narrated their litany of woes. The three confessed that they were working as labourers in Bangalore since 2013. However, they were contacted by a middleman named Mr Timitigiry in Bangalore, who lured them to join NDFB (S) on 11 Jun 2018, asking them to fight for the Bodo cause and falsely promised good pay. They were then taken to Assam and from there were made to cross over to Myanmar on foot via Longleng District of Nagaland. On reaching Taga Camp of the outfit in Myanmar, they were used as bonded labour and employed to cultivate poppy, rice and vegetables. They were even forced to work in the coal mines owned in parts by the senior insurgent leaders. The three stated that they were not given any military or weapon training and were harassed by senior cadres. They lived a wretched life there with minimal food, no salary and only one pair of clothes to wear. On asking for better conditions, the three were beaten up and tied to wooden posts. Eventually the three finally managed to flee when Myanmar Army recently occupied Taga Camp. They then travelled along jungle trails eating whatever nature provided them with. They traced their journey back to India from Taga to Dan through Nampha, Nautun, Lahe and Ponyu. Physical and mental abuse of new recruits is not unusual among insurgent groups. This has become even more rampant with desperation setting in, especially amongst cadres of ULFA (I) and NDFB (S); consequent to the recent crackdown by Tatmadaw (Myanmar Army) that ensued loss of bases of these groups.

an informal cease-fire that lasted for years. The Naga people had let their desire be made known in a powerful, passionate and public way, and the groups claiming to represent those people had to respond if their claims of being their rightful leaders were to have any integrity. Talks between the factions and the Government of India dragged on without any progress. The interfactional reconciliation was going nowhere, so in 2000 the Naga civil society groups again gathered to strategize and rethink their approach. The idea was conceived of the Journey of Conscience, inspired by Gandhi’s Salt March and the Freedom Rides of the U.S. Civil Rights Movement. The idea was to take a publicized journey from Nagaland to Delhi, to speak from the heart of the Nagas to the heart of India. In Delhi three days of special events took place: A visit to and service at Gandhi’s tomb, a consultation with Indian civil society groups about the Naga situation, and a public demonstration for peace and justice related to the Nagas. T h a t Jo u r n e y o f Conscience took place in January 2001, and it accomplished more positive impact than years of violent struggle by the Naga political factions. Awareness of the Naga situation and a more positive view about it grew, not just in India, but globally as the Journey of Conscience travelled beyond India’s borders. Unarmed people were proving to be more effective in getting Naga concerns before the world than those with the guns. The problem that developed, however, was that those with the guns were
doing the negotiation about what a political solution would look like. Some were at the table, but others were not. Furthermore, the talks went nowhere. Though the Naga civil society had brought the Naga cause more attention than ever, the people on all sides who controlled the decisionmaking, namely the GOI and Naga factions, were not making progress. Peace seemed to be stalled once again. Yet, except for occasional incidents, Nagas weren’t being killed either by the Indian Army or by their Naga brothers in the various factions. Once again it was people armed, not with guns, but with the Spirit of God, personal courage, and creativity who stepped forward to shape Naga destiny. Conceived in a prayer meeting the Chiang Mai process was born, a series of meetings in Chiang Mai, Thailand, involving all the major Naga political factions. This process was convened by the new Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR), an organization of Naga church leaders, women’s leaders, student leaders, human rights leaders, and others. The FNR worked in partnership with international peacemakers, especially British Quakers and U.S. Baptists from the American Baptist Churches and the Baptist Peace Fellowship of North America. Through a series of meetings various steps were taken on the road to reconciliation, culminating in the signing of the Covenant of Reconciliation by S.S. Khaplang, Isak Swu, and Brig. Singnya in 2009. This Covenant was the result of leaders from across the broad spectrum of Naga society, including leaders from the Naga
Baptist churches, lifting up reconciliation. If the phrase “Nagaland for Christ” is to have any meaning how can reconciliation not be a high priority? The Naga political leaders deserve credit for embracing this call, but the Naga people deserve credit for making the call to reconciliation an expression of their agenda. Ten years have passed. Some signatories of that original Covenant of Reconciliation have passed on. But the call to reconciliation stands firm. The commitment to find the way forward also stands. More divisions have taken place, political arguments have been made, but the people’s agenda has not faded in both its necessity and urgency. So whatever political stands are taken those leaders must give serious attention and credence to the commitments enshrined in the Covenant of Reconciliation. This was not a document put together under pressure by the Government of India without the involvement of key Naga leaders as happened with the Shillong Accord. This was a document compelled by the Naga civil society and signed by the top leaders from the major Naga political factions. The Naga people have spoken and Naga leaders recognized and responded to that agenda. But Nagas know the journey of the spirit can start with good intentions. People commit themselves for Christ, then soon they stumble and fall back into their old ways. There is an opportunity to repent, to turn around, to make a 180° turn. The clear standard of the Covenant of Reconciliation may be 10 years, old but is still relevant today. It expressed the will of the Naga people
clearly, so it is up to both the Naga political leaders and the Naga people as a whole to recommit themselves to the practical steps of making the dream expressed in that covenant a reality. Nagas love to recite history, citing the years and milestones of the Naga struggle. The reason I’ve gone through this recitation of more recent history is to show that the leadership for Nagas hasn’t come from the top down but from the bottom up. While top leaders have claimed to represent the Naga people, the Naga people have been making it clear that they want peace and reconciliation. Anybody who splits the Nagas into Naga versus Naga factionalism and violence has not given proper expression to Naga desires. Whatever claims may be made from the top of such organizations, ordinary people have been asserting their demand for reconciliation in a way to which those political leaders have been forced to respond. Political statements have shifted to try to show how each group is acting on those demands, even if they continue to actually be engaging in factionalism rather than taking the specific practical steps toward reconciliation. The people without the guns are now driving the discourse and setting the agenda, and that is bringing hope for a better and brighter future for the Nagas as well as all their neighbors.

Problem and role of women
t is important that women have freedom, because they are the ones who gives birth to future generation. Every women must be imbued with the knowledge that, ‘Yes, I can do what I want and the law is there to help me’. The Indian laws that apply to women are actually more advanced than any other country and the State does provide women with full machinery to exercise their rights, but they have to be exercised on a personal level. Social laws and reforms have not kept pace with the law. We are so averse to change in the bus because there is a better place further up, she won’t do it. In this sort of society, to bring about any short of change is difficult. Religion and society ascribe impossible virtues to women and thus confine women to a narrow sphere of behavior. The good woman is the one who remains faithful to her husband, sacrifices her own aspirations, and dreams for the sake of family and children. She accepts beatings, torture and every kind of humiliation from the family and society. Again, we find some women who tries to live upto the role, status and temperament. The present trend of male-domination, which have prevented the women from taking advantages for coming forward in our social life, has to be examined before we call their role in development. For society looks upon the women as a property of man, but rape, adultery, kidnapping and seduction are prevailing in the society. These acts are crime and against human kind. The male himself made the women to think that performing domestic chores, if possible effectively, have been their responsibility, this domestic burden should not
prevent their role and place in the society. The gender inequalities are the main problem from the women, on the pretext that women are inferior. The order of deep-rooted pretext of inferiority of women should be removed first, if we really want them to develop themselves useful to the society. Mahatma Gandhi involved women –power in his nonviolent struggled that aroused their consciousness gave them self- confidence and a sense of challenge. Many of our brave plans and movements stop halfway because of the condition of women: which remains unutilized due to lack
of equal participation. Jawaharlal Nehru once said: “I am quite sure that our real and basic growth will only come when the inherent ability of women have a full chance to play their part in public life., I am proud of the women of India, I am proud of their beauty, grace, charm, modesty’ intelligence and their spirit of sacrifice and I think if anybody can represent the spirit of India, the women can do and not man. Every time that a woman has been sent abroad done well, not only done well but produced a fine impression about the womanhood of India”. A perfect society shall be
established when the women sustain their privileged position in a constant upward movement off opportunities for the generality of women. The women also should liberate themselves from age-old psychological and mental shackles of their own. They do not need to be unnecessary aggressive or unfeminine in asserting their individuality in life and work. They must set aside the grip of mentalpsychological attitudes which are male-dominated. The rational and for upliftment the living standard of the women should have base and social force behind it. Keduovilie Linyü
Reader’s Post
Do every student truly deserve the scholarship? Sir,
We Nagas, being a minority have been endowed with so many privileges and benefits with one being the post-matric scholarship for students. The eligibility criteria for receiving scholarships is that this scholarship will be awarded to the students who have secured not less than 50% marks or equivalent grade in the previous final examination and the annual income of whose parents/guardians from all sources does not exceed Rs.2.00 lakh. The real objective of the scheme is to award scholarships to meritorious students belonging to economically weaker sections of minority community so as to provide them better opportunities for higher education, increase their rate of attainment in higher education and enhance their employability. It is no secret that so many children of the creamy layer in our society, i.e. sons and daughters of bureaucrats and technocrats, gazetted officers, wealthy business people etc. all apply and acquire scholarships by giving false income statement of their parents. Majority of the students while applying their scholarships, falsely give the occupation of their parents as farmers, cultivators etc. We cannot blame only our leaders for every wrong thing in our society. As parents and guardians, it is our responsibility and duty to teach our children and ward what is right and what is not or what is worth fighting and standing for and not to assert our right even though when we are ethically and morally wrong. This is the error in our society today. Starting right from our homes and kitchens, we encourage corruption directly or indirectly but we always want to point our fingers only on others. Let us remember, that we can fool some people but we can never fool God. Why speak about corruption and curse our leaders for every wrongs and ills in our society when we are no less? How clean are we ourselves? How clean are our own hands? Aienla Jamir, Dimapur

ENSF announces indefinite stir from June 20
(From p-1) And as there was still no response, it had served an ultimatum. And in good faith ENSF said it had even agreed to the State government’s appeal for deferring the ultimatum and kept it in abeyance hoping that an amicable solution would come out at the meeting with the government. Expressing its shock at the nature of the government, the federation alleged that instead of addressing the problem after repeatedly being served with representations, reminders and an ultimatum, there was no response. Under the circumstances, the federation explained that it had decided to go for an indefinite strike as the outcome of the meeting was inconclusive. It warned that stir would continue unless the relaxation policy was extended, B Ed colleges in Eastern Nagaland set up and adequate number of DIET institutions established.

Mumbai, Jun 18 (PTI): The rupee Tuesday appreciated by 21 paise to close at 69.70 against the US dollar as easing crude prices and a weak dollar ahead of the US central bank’s meeting helped the currency snap its three-day losing streak. Forex dealers said the selling of the American currency by exporters and gain in other Asian currencies also supported the rupee. The US dollar fell against its major rivals before the US Federal Reserve’s meeting amid expectations that the central bank may signal a rate cut.
The dollar index dropped 0.1 per cent to 97.43 Tuesday. B r e n t crude futures, the global oil benchmark, eased 0.46 per cent to USD 60.66 per barrel. At the interbank foreign exchange market, the rupee opened at 69.82 per dollar and advanced to a high of 69.63 during the day. It finally settled at 69.70, up 21 paise over its last close. The domestic currency had settled at 69.70 against the US dollar Monday. “Rupee has broken the three-day losing streak by appreciating 21 paise against the US dollar taking a cue from other strong Asian currencies. The weak trend of Brent crude prices has also augured well for domestic currency,” said V K Sharma, Head-PCG & Capital Market Strategy, HDFC Securities. “Market participants are waiting for the mon-

Fifty-three people are receiving treatment in two hospitals in Changning. Among them, two are in critical conditions and six others are severely injured. Official media reported that early warning systems installed in Chengdu and Yibin sounded alarms a minute before the quake struck. The deaths and in-

Four people have been rescued and sent to a hospital, according to a rescuer in Shuanghe township.

Rouhani’s comment came a day after acting US Defence Secretary Patrick Shanahan announced the deployment of about 1,000 more troops to the Middle East amid escalating tensions with Iran, reports Press TV. The US administration has accused Iran of being responsible for the attacks, and the latter has denied the allegation.

Wellington, Jun 18 (IANS): A new Zealand court on Tuesday sentenced a man to 21 months in prison for sharing the livestream video of the March 15 attacks at the two Christchurch mosques in which 51 people were killed. Philip Arps, 44, owner of a Christchurch insulation company, which he has publicized using pro-Nazi and white supremacist imagery, was found guilty of two charges of distributing objectionable material, reports Efe news. In April, Arps admitted that he had sent the video, which had been modified to include graphic additions such as crosshairs and a body count, to around 30 people, a day after the massacre. According to public broadcaster Radio New Zealand, Arps asked an unknown acquaintance to add the videogame-like body count and crosshairs “to make it more fun”. When the Christchurch District Court Judge Stephen O’Driscoll questioned Arps about his opinion of the video, he replied “awesome”. In the 17-minute long video, the alleged attacker could be seen shooting point-blank at worshipers who had gathered at the AlNoor mosque, the first of the two that were targeted, for Friday prayers. “Your offending glorifies and encourages the mass

Washington, Jun 18 (AP): In an effort to bolster its public case against Iran, the Pentagon on Monday released new photos that officials said show that members of Tehran’s Revolutionary Guard were responsible for attacks last week on two oil tankers near the Persian Gulf. The images, many taken from a Navy helicopter, show what the Pentagon said were Iranian forces removing an unexploded mine from the side of the Japanese-owned Kokuka Courageous oil tanker in the Gulf of Oman. Officials last week said the move appeared to be an attempt to remove forensic evidence from the scene of the attack. But it’s not clear if examination of the mine would have made it definitively clear that the device was planted by the IRGC. Other photos show a large hole on the side of the Courageous, above the water line, that officials say appears to have been caused by another similar mine. The release of the photos came as the US works this week to convince members of Congress and allies that the accusations against Tehran are true. Iran has denied involvement in the tanker attacks and has accused America of promoting an “Iranophobic” campaign. Tehran,
The US has stopped providing new funds to the three Central American nations of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras, also known as the Northern Triangle governments, accusing their failure in managing the immigration issue, the State Department said. “We will not provide new funds for programmes in those countries until we are satisfied the Northern Triangle governments are taking concrete actions to reduce the number of illegal migrants coming to the US border,” Xinhua news agency quoted State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus as saying on Monday. “Working with Congress, we will reprogramme those funds to other priorities as appropriate,” she added. President Donald Trump’s administration would reallocate $370 million in aid to Central America, which lawmakers had approved for the fiscal year 2018, and suspend an additional $180 million that Congress had approved for the fiscal year 2017, according to media reports.
Cairo, Jun 18 (IANS): Former Egyptian President Mohammad Morsi has been buried following his sudden death after he collapsed in a courtroom during an ongoing trial, his son confirmed on Tuesday. Morsi’s son, Ahmed, said in a Facebook post that his father was buried in a cemetery dedicated for the Muslim Brotherhood guides in eastern Cairo’s Nasr City district after the authorities had refused to allow the former leader to be buried at the family grave in his hometown in al-Sharqiya governorate, reports Efe news. “We have washed his body at the hospital of Torah prison and read the prayers for him inside the prison’s mosque,” Ahmed wrote on Facebook, adding only members of the family were allowed to attend the burial. Morsi, the only democratically elected president in Egypt’s history, died on Monday after spending six years in detention under harsh conditions that included near-complete solitary confinement and denial of proper medical care.

If so, Border Crisis will end quickly!” In early June, the US and Mexico agreed that the former will be able to deport to Mexico all Central American asylum-seekers who have illegally crossed the border.

months in record numbers, continuing the rising trend that has marked Trump’s time in office so far. According to the estimates submitted by the Trump administration, the migratory influx was set to reach a million people this financial year. The US detained more than 132,000 immigrants in May at its southern border, a 30 per cent increase compared to April and the largest figure recorded in a single month since 2006. The majority of these immigrants belong to Central American families who voluntarily turn themselves in to border officials and formally seek asylum, a humanitarian framework that allows them to be released and obtain temporary residence and work permits. ICE and the US Customs and Border Protection agency have come under scrutiny by human rights groups and activists for the treatment of asylum-seekers and apprehended aliens and the conditions they endure at detention centres. According to a data investigation by NBC news published on June 9, at least 24 immigrants have died in ICE custody during the Trump administration.

Washington, Jun 18 (IANS): US President Donald Trump has said that immigration enforcement authorities would begin deporting millions of undocumented migrants from the country in the coming week. Trump however, did not provide further details on the immigrants who would be affected by the mass removal, reports Efe news. “Next week ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) will begin the process of removing the millions of illegal aliens who have illicitly found their way into the United States,” Trump tweeted on Monday. “They will be removed as fast as they come in. “Mexico, using their strong immigration laws, is doing a very good job of stopping people,” Trump added, before claiming that Guatemala was getting ready to sign a so-called “Safe-Third Agreement.” With this agreement, the US would be able to send asylum seekers from other countries to Guatemala. A similar deal is being worked on with Mexico, although the latter has so far refused to agree to the proposal.

Uber gives a first look inside its new flying taxis
U
ber is taking the wraps off of its futuristic air taxis for the first time. The ride-hailing firm gave the public a look at the inside of its flying taxi that’s expected to ferry up to four passengers as part of the long-awaited airborne taxi service, dubbed ‘Uber Air.’ Previously, Uber had shared prototype digital designs of the vehicle, but now the vehicles are getting closer to takeoff. As part of the unveiling, Uber also announced that it expects the aerial ride-hailing platform to be-
come available to the public as soon as 2023, following tests that will take place next year. It’s not yet clear how much an Uber Air trip will cost, but the firm expects it to be cheaper than a traditional helicopter ride. The first rides in Uber Air taxis will launch in Dallas, Texas as well as Los Angeles, before rolling out to additional areas in the future. Uber gave its first indepth look at the vehicle at its annual ‘Uber Elevate’ flying taxi conference in Washington, DC, which
kicked off today and lasts through Wednesday. For the most part, the inside of an Uber Air taxi looks pretty similar to a traditional helicopter. However, it’s missing some of the typical conveniences consumers might come to expect from rideshare vehicles or airplanes. The interior was designed by French aerospace company Safran, who told Forbes that the firm chose to forego ‘busy’ things like cupholders, interactive screens, chargers or seatback pockets. Instead, Uber Air taxis are meant to ferry four passengers to their destination quickly and seamlessly, without many interruptions. That’s primarily because each Uber Air trip is estimated to take no more than 20 minutes from pickup to drop off. ‘We realized for an 8-minute flight, that’s all irrelevant,’ Ian Scoley, a vice president of Safran’s design and innovation studio, told Forbes.

Sandra Bullock reveals she made ‘Bird Box’ for her kids
W L
iam Gallagher has suggested that he could be the Prime Minister to unite a deeply divided Britain. The former Oasis star, who recently blasted brother Noel over Brexit, believes that he should be the alternative option to the ongoing Tory leadership race. Posting on Twitter, Liam was even transparent about his well-documented drug use after contenders such as Rory Stewart and Michael Gove previously admitted that they had dabbled with opium and cocaine. “My name is Liam Gallagher I have 4 beautiful children I have dabbled in drugs over the years I’ve had many number 1s now send
me the keys to no10 I’ll sort this pile of shit out WHY ME?WHY NOT,” wrote Liam on Twitter. And in a sign that his destiny is perhaps already foretold, he noted: “ParLIAMent c’mon you know.” When one fan asked what his first move in power would be, Liam offered a reply that will delight Oasis fans across the country. “Get oasis back together I’d make it law,” he replied. While it’s worth taking Liam’s comments with a pinch of salt, he previously said that former Prime Minister David Cameron “wants his bollocks electrocuting” for instigating the 2016 EU referendum.

hen Netflix released “Bird Box” — starring Sandra Bullock — in December, the horror movie set a new record for the streaming giant, becoming the most-watched film within the first seven days of its release. Now, the 54year-old actress is revealing the sweet reason why she signed on to do the flick. While accepting the 2019 MTV Movie & TV Award for most frightened performance, Bullock told the audience that she credits her two little ones — daughter Laila, 7, and son Louis, 9 — as to why she did the movie. “I made ‘Bird Box’ because my children asked me why I never made anything for them,” Bullock shared. “So when ‘Bird Box’ crossed my path, I knew this was a story I needed to make because it was about family.” “And when I finished the film, I went to my babies and I said, ‘Here, mommy made this for you. And even though you can’t see it until you’re 21 — because apparently, a movie about being a mommy is
a horror film — you will know when you see it that there isn’t anything that I wouldn’t do for you,” she continued. The mom of two went on to say that she told her kids that they are her “first thought in the morning” and her “last thought at night.” “Took off my blindfold this morning to discover that 45,037,125 Netflix accounts have already watched ‘Bird Box’ — best first 7 days ever for a Netflix film!” the company wrote alongside a GIF of Bullock, who stars as Malorie in the movie. Bullock concluded her speech by saying that she was happy her son could
see her accept her award in a room with “real life superheroes” like Wonder Woman — played by Gal Gadot who presented Bullock with her Golden Popcorn trophy — and Captain Marvel — played by Brie Larson who won the best fight award. One week after its December 21 debut, “Bird Box” was viewed by over 45 million accounts, making it Netflix’s most-watched film within the first seven days of its release, according to the streaming giant. The movie also flooded social media with dozens of memes and inspired a viral social media challenge. (Foxnews)

One user on the website Reddit shared a video from an episode of “Aladdin - Naam Toh Suna Hoga”, and drew a parallel. In the video, a skeleton is jumping at the lead actor and trying to attack him but the hero saves himself by grabbing the skeleton by its bones and stabbing it with
a weapon. It is reminiscent of the killing scene of the Night King in “Game of Thrones”. The video, which is now doing the rounds on the Internet, has left netizens in splits, with many saying that Indian makers have copied a scene from the “Game of Thrones”, while a section of social media users felt that the scene from “Aladdin Naam Toh Suna Hoga” may have inspired the makers of the international show.

ne of the most trusted source of Apple rumors, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said the company would unveil 5G iPhones in 2020, while Qualcomm is still expected to be its primary supplier of 5G modems. According to media reports, Cupertino-based company is expected to launch three iPhones next year. Apple's 6.7-inch and 5.4-inch iPhones will be 5G-capable, while a midsize 6.1-inch iPhone won't have 5G and will likely be cheaper without 5G features, news website MacRumors reported. The noted Apple expert and predictor also believes that Apple will have its own 5G modem ready by 2022 to 2023, which should reduce its dependance on Qualcomm. In 2019, Apple's iPhone XR is expected to feature a 3,110mAh battery which is bigger than the 2,942mAh battery that the company added in iPhone XR launched in 2018. It is also being speculated, that the upcoming iPhone XR 2 is coming with Apple's A13 processor made with a second generation 7nm process that would increase battery performance, thus offering a longer battery life as compared to the iPhone XR. Meanwhile, the iPhone-maker is planning to upgrade the camera resolution and set-up in its 2019 line-up. (IANS)

Harder! Kiss her harder! Deeper!” he joked. “They (Jackie and the kids) watched the kissing. They love it. They love Aniston, and they want her to have good things and they say, ‘Give her something nice.’” “That was awkward,”

Chile players celebrate after scoring a goal during their Copa America match against Japan. is Sanchez ensured victory for Chile on Monday, reports Efe news. Japan, who came with a youthful squad to the tournament, had their chances but lacked the cutting edge. Despite the absence of agile and eye-catching soccer, Chile are still well on its way to defend the titles it obtained in 2015 and 2016. Japan made an energetic start with Takefusa
Kubo - who was signed by Real Madrid last week for its B-squad - leading the charge against the reigning champion, who failed to respond to the defensive pressures and the devilish speed of the Japanese strikers. Chile spent much of the first half totally disoriented and trying to contain the outbursts of a Japanese team who knew very well how to play.
Shoya Nakajima gave the Chileans a lesson in dribbling speed and ball control, and almost opened the scoring before the 10-minute mark. Kubo displayed some of his talent, especially a delightful nutmeg against Mauricio Isla, and moved freely through his attacking area. After half an hour, Sanchez appeared with a double chance, although neither of his two shots was on target. Chile stepped up their game and moved the ball more fluidly. They were rewarded for their period of dominance with the opener, when Pulgar nodded in a Charles Aranguiz corner in the 41st minute. Japan slowed down in the second half and Chile doubled their lead with Vargas scoring the first of his two goals after a cut-back from Mauricio Isla in the 53th minute. Japan’s Ueda squandered a chance to respond, firing wide of the back post after a cross from Gaku Shibasaki. While the Japanese failed in their attacks, Chile knew how to take advantage of each and every one of its approaches. Less than ten minutes before the match ended, Sanchez scored another goal for Chile and a minute later gave an assist to the striker Vargas, who sealed his second goal with ease.
ATK sign Fiji striker Roy Krishna Ko l k ata , J u n 1 8 (IANS): Two-time Indian Super League champions ATK on Tuesday announced the signing of Fiji striker Roy Krishna for the upcoming football season. Krishna last played as a striker for Wellington Phoenix FC in the A-League, a professional men’s soccer league in Australia and is also the captain of the Fiji national football team. The attacking forward scored 19 goals in 27 matches for the 2018-19 season with Wellington Phoenix FC. Krishna started his career with the New Zealand Football Championship (NZFC) side Waitakere United from Fijian local outfit Labasa FC in January 2008. He started playing for Wellington Phoenix FC in 2014. In 2018-2019 ALeague season, Krishna was Golden Boot winner and was also awarded the Johnny Warren Medal for his performances. “Roy Krishna is our first international striker signing of the season. He is a prolific striker with leadership skills under his belt. He will add attack and variety to the team and his confidence will give an edge. I am very happy to have him in ATK,” ATK head coach Antonio Habas said in a statement.

L o n d o n, J u n 1 8 (Agencies): Chelsea have rejected £35m bids from Barcelona and Atletico Madrid for Willian. The Brazilian winger has entered the final 12 months of his deal at Stamford Bridge and, despite facing the possibility of losing him for free next summer, Chelsea are keen to keep hold of him next season. Chelsea are currently serving the first part of their two-window transfer ban imposed by FIFA and sold talisman Eden Hazard to Real Madrid for an initial £88m last week. The Blues may be able to avoid losing Willian for free next summer if they can reach an agreement over a new two-year deal. Barcelona have had a long-standing interest in Willian and saw three bids rejected by Chelsea last summer, with the final offer worth more than £55m. They renewed their interest in January, but once again were unable to strike a deal with Chelsea. K Y M C

The Commissioner, Nagaland. Sub: Matter regarding the “meeting minutes” dated Dimapur the 10th June 2019, forwarded by the Deputy Commissioner Dimapur, to the State Government. Sir, With due respect, we beg to state that the “Meeting Minutes” dated Dimapur, the 10th June 2019, forwarded by the Deputy Commissioner Dimapur to the State Government was not found satisfactory by the union. It was most unfortunate on the part of the DC Dimapur not to include key issues raised by the union, while forwarding the meeting minutes to the State Government and without the inclusion of those relevant issues; it has reflected a very poor light on the union’s claim. Also the union believes such insincere approach may not draw a logical conclusion from the government’s end and as such, with utmost regard the union approaches your kind office for timely intervention. The relevant issues raised by the union in the meeting dated 06th of June 2019, in which the DC Dimapur has failed to record is once again reconstructed here for reference of your kind office: 1) The union query as to whether ‘ROW’ was applied across Nagaland while considering compensation. 2) Does ‘ROW’ allow the government to snatch away private land without considering compensation? 3) Should government issue land pattas and at the same time declare patta-holders as encroacher? 4) The government’s claim of 13.5 metres (road reservation) from the centre of the road, also notified by the then DC Dimapur A.S Bhatia on the 17th April 2000, was set aside and quashed by the Hon’ble Guahati High Court (Kohima Bench) through its judgment order No. W.P (C) No.98 (K) of 2000 5) The union had expressed displeasure at how the government compensated other landowners but conveniently overlooked the case of landowners which was directed by none other than the Hon’ble Guahati High Court. 6) The official’s claim that land compensation was not considered while preparing DPR was purely government’s negligence and as such, concerened landowners should not be penalised for that action. 7) Issues on article 371 ‘A’ raised by the union was nowhere to be seen or recorded in the official meeting minutes, as such, the union wonders as to whether the article is still enforced in Nagaland or the government has done away with this article. Sir, may we once again reiterate the union’s proposal of 34 feet road width (i.e. present black topped area of 24 feet plus 5 feet both side) to be taken as benchmark and beyond which could be measured and considered for land compensation. It may also be placed on record that the union’s objective is never against the government developmental activities but should no consensus arrived, the union shall be forced to seek legal recourse for justice. However, it is expected that your good office will exercise maturity and the two parties will find an agreeable conclusion by being reasonable with each other and also avoid any unnecessary complication.

Morgan guides England to big win over Afghanistan
England captain Eoin Morgan scored 148 runs off just 71 balls against Afghanistan.
Manchester, Jun 18 (Agencies): England dished out one of their most devastating performances with the bat in the World Cup 2019 on Tuesday as they crushed Afghanistan by 150 runs in Manchester to grab the top spot in the points table with their fourth win of the tournament. This was the biggest win for England in terms of runs since the 1975 World Cup game against India which they had won by 202 runs. The game was taken away from Afghanistan in the first innings itself when England posted their highest World Cup score of 397 for 6 in 50 overs after opting to bat first. England skipper Eoin Morgan led the way with a swashbuckling 148 off 71 balls while Jonny Bairstow (90), Joe Root (88) and Moeen Ali (31 not out)
played the supporting roles as the hosts ended up with the 6th highest team total in a World Cup. Afghanistan in reply, could never match up to the required run rate but they did show a lot of fight and were determined to get as close to the total as possible. Hashmatullah Shahidi (76), Rahmat Shah (46) and Asghar Afghan (44) made sure they didn’t give up without a fight and took Afghanistan to 247 for 8 in 50 overs. The match also broke the record for the most sixes hit during a World Cup game with 33, bettering the previous record of 31 which took place in the match between New Zealand and West Indies in Wellington in 2015. Adil Rashid and Jofra Archer were the pick of the bowlers for England as they bagged 3 wickets
each while Mark Wood took two. Earlier, Eoin Morgan demolished the Afghanistan bowling attack and smashed the fourth fastest hundred in World Cup history as England reached 397 for 6. Morgan ended up clobbering 17 sixes, a world record in ODI cricket. England finished with 25 sixes in total which is also the most hit by a team in an ODI innings. 17 maximums were hit by the captain himself, while Moeen Ali hit four and Bairstow clobbered 3 sixes. Root also managed to hit one out of the park. Moeen Ali played a lovely cameo in the end, scoring 31 not out off 9 balls. Morgan was superbly assisted by Joe Root in the 189-run partnership for the third wicket during which Root made 88 runs off 82 balls. Before that Root was involved in a 120-run stand for the second wicket with Jonny Bairstow, who scored 90 off 99 balls. Morgan and Co took all the Afghanistan bowlers to the cleaners but the batsmen were particularly brutal against leg-spinner Rashid Khan, who conceded 110 runs from his 9 overs without taking a wicket, which is the most runs conceded in a World Cup match. Brief Scores England: 397/6 (Eoin Morgan 148, Jonny Bairstow 90) Afghanistan: 247/8 (Hashmatullah Shahidi 76, Rahmat Shah 46; Adil Rashid 3/66, Jofra Archer 3/52)

Platini arrested over awarding WC 2022 to Qatar Paris, Jun 18 (IANS): Former UEFA president and ex-French international star midfielder Michel Platini has been arrested on suspicion of having been involved in alleged corruption linked to a decision to award the 2022 World Cup to Qatar. Platini was nabbed at around 09.30 local time (07.30 GMT) and taken to the Anti-Corruption Office of France’s Judicial Police, Efe news reports. Qatar was in 2010 controversially awarded the right to host the 2022 World Cup, a decision that was announced at the same time as Russia clinch-
ing the 2018 tournament. Platini has denied any wrongdoing. The former France international captain, who was UEFA president from 2007 to 2015, was serving a four-year disqualification which ends in October for violating the organisation’s code of ethics by accepting a fee in 2011 that was authorised by then FIFA president, the now disgraced Joseph Blatter. The amount of the award was some 1.8 million euros for work done between 1998 and 2002. Platini and Blatter were both cleared of cor-

ruption charges in 2015 but found guilty of a series of regulation breaches that included conflict of interest when 2 million Swiss francs were transferred from Blatter to Platini in 2011.
Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy’s sports adviser Sophie Dion and former secretary general of the Elysee Palace, Claude Guéant, were also reportedly asked to give testimony. France’s National Financial Prosecutor in 2016 opened an investigation for alleged corruption in the awarding of the 2022 World Cup to Qatar, for which Platini already testified as a witness in December 2017. The investigation focused on the meeting held in November 2010 by Qatari authorities with Sarkozy and Platini at the
Elysee Palace which was also attended by Guéant and Dion. Michel Platini admitted holding a meeting in secret with disgraced former football official Mohamed bin Hammam days before casting his vote for Qatar but has maintained that it did not influence his decision. Both Platini and Blatter were overthrown from their commanding positions at the top of soccer in 2015. Qatar’s practices in bringing the World Cup to the Middle East for the first time have been subject to FIFA investigations.
