Corruption, a collective problem: CM

Correspondent

MOKOKCHUNG, NOV 9 (NPN): Describing corruption as a collective problem, the state chief minister, TR Zeliang, on Thursday asserted that the foremost step to tackle corruption was for each individual to change themselves first and be upright in what they do.

Speaking as chief guest on the second day of the 18th Biennial Conference of the All Nagaland College Students’ Union (ANCSU) at Fazl Ali College here, Zeliang said that corruption was the most talked about issue in the state today, saying the issue has not been tackled effectively despite efforts by successive government over the years.

The chief minister, however, affirmed that his government would continue to vigorously pursue to set the goal of addressing corruption. He said corruption was an all-pervasive evil and not just confined to government alone.

Commenting on the public distribution system (PDS) scams, the chief minister said those malpractices were prevalent from long before, but no tangible ac-

tion could be taken against the perpetrators.

However, the chief minister asserted that in order to tackle the matter, the government has constituted a special investigation team (SIT) and the accused persons were charge-sheeted and the matter was now in judicial magistrate’s court.

Zeliang stated that the government has further issued stringent orders that no petrol pumps should deal in adulterated fuel. He said violators would be fined by cancelling the dealership licence and appropriate actions would be taken as per law.

Further, the chief minister maintained that the government was fully committed to ensuring implementation of National Food Security Act 2013 (NFSA)

in letter and spirit.

On the issue of state’s crumbling infrastructure, the chief minister said that without adequate resources, it was “simply impossible” to develop the infrastructure of the state. “We are literally left with nothing but to seek help from the government of India,” he said.

The chief minister, however, maintained that the face of roads of Nagaland would soon change as the Centre has approved many of the proposals in principle for sanction. Some important roads have already been accorded sanction, which combined together, amount to over Rs. 30,000 crore for road sector alone, he said.

The chief minister also stated that one of the major visions of the state govern-

ment was to make Nagaland a hub of connectivity with South East Asian countries.

He expressed confidence that this initiative would open up new opportunities for youths to actively participate in the growth and progress of the state. “We must be prepared to make use of these new openings when it comes to our door steps,” he added.

Expressing concerns over the reported influx of illegal immigrants into the state, the chief minister said the government was putting every effort towards containing the menace of illegal immigrants.

In this regard, the chief minister called upon the general public to also play their role.

NSCN (K) losing Meghalaya Parl Secys resign en masse ground: Indian Army Correspondent

SHILLONG, Nov 9 (AGENCIES): Indian Army Thursday claimed that NSCN (K) is losing ground in areas along the Indo-Myanmar border while maintaining that the people are no longer fearful of them, a TNT report stated.

According to PRO Defence (Guwahati) Lt Col Suneet Newton, people living in border areas are no longer fearful of the NSCN (K) and this is evident from the support rendered by locals of Niausa village in Arunachal Pradesh recently, whereby they came out in large number protesting against illegal activities carried out by NSCN (K) and decided to ban safe passage to the militants.

“People are no longer fearful of them. They have come out openly.

They want peace. Both the union and state governments are carrying out large amount of developmental activities, so people over there don’t want to miss the ‘bus’ of peace and prosperity,” he said.

PRO also claimed that NSCN (K) is losing ground compelling them to adopt measures by striking fear in the hearts of the people. “Their aim is to propagate, spread lies, to create terror amongst the people over there,” he said.

PRO said NSCN (K)’s aim at the tactical and sub-tactical level is to create fear so that they can continue with their illegal activities and extortion in inducing fear amongst the people. However, peace will prevail; he said, adding that people now are coming out to protest against the atrocities of the insurgent group.

SHILLONG, NOV 9: Hours after the Meghalaya High Court on Thursday held invalid the state law providing for appointment of parliamentary secretaries in the state, 17 parliamentary secretaries quit their post. Chief Minister Mukul Sangma, who accepted the resignation of his parliamentary secretaries, defended that the appointment of parliamentary secretaries was based on the Act. “This law has been enacted based on this mandate of the provisions of the constitution by which we can prevent the members of the august house from getting disqualified from holding an office of profit wherein law says such office will be deemed as not as office of profit,” Sangma told journalists.

It may be recalled that on August 30, seven parliamentary secretaries in Mizoram resigned in the wake of the Supreme Court’s July 26 ruling on The Assam Parliamentary Secretaries (Appointment, Salaries, Allowances and Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 2004. The same issue also hangs over the AAP government of Delhi after the High Court had in 2016 quashed their appointments. The EC is to take a call on the matter.

Thursday’s verdict by a division bench of Chief Justice Dinesh Maheshwari and Justice Ved Prakash Vaish came on a PIL filed by state resident Madal Sumer, challenging the “extra constitutional and illegal” appointment of Parliamentary Secre-

taries in the state. However, the Court left it to the Governor to determine the disqualification of the post-holders from the assembly. The Court struck down and held the Meghalaya Parliamentary Secretaries (Appointment, Salaries, Allowances and Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 2005 invalid for want of legislative competence of the state Legislature.

“As a necessary corollary, the notifications appointing the parliamentary secretaries and other follow-up actions are declared void, for having been issued and carried out under an invalid enactment,” it said, adding that the challenge to the validity of the 2005 Act has to succeed in view of the law declared by the Supreme Court in Bimolangshu Roy’s case.

Citing the July 26 SC verdict, the High Court said: “This declaration of law by the Supreme Court, on want of legislative competence of the state Legislature, is binding on all the courts and obviously, if the said law is applicable to the present case, it shall have to be applied, irrespective of the pleadings of the parties.”

Madal Sumer said he would also appeal the Governor to dismiss the Congress-led Meghalaya United Alliance government as it has been “reduced to a minority with the disqualification of those legislators, who were appointed as parliamentary secretaries”. He also demanded that the government should direct these legislators to return all the salary and perks from the date of their appointment for serving in the unconstitutional office.

GoI serious to solve P&C deptt asked to reveal names of beneficiaries ENCSU launches phase-I agitation Naga issue: Madhav D I M A P U R , N OV 9 (NPN): Nagaland Public Rights Awareness and Action Forum (NPRAAF) has again exposed questionable practices in the government where transparency and accountability have long been forced to become extinct so that those in power could freely dispense favours to their favoured few or indulge in blatant corruption without any fear of the law.

In the latest revelation, NPRAAF has raised serious doubts over the genuineness of projects undertaken by the department of Planning & Coordination (P&C) against which huge amounts of money were released by the Finance Department (Budget & Monitoring Cell), In a statement, NPRAAF media cell has urged upon the Department of Planning & Coordination to clarify on the matter

by providing proper details of the projects, locations and list of beneficiaries.

According to Nagaland Public Rights Awareness and Action Forum, the Finance Department (Budget & Monitoring Cell) had on July 13 , 2017 released Rs 8.98 crore to the Department of Planning & Coordination for providing financial assistance to 41 unnamed beneficiaries under capacity building for the year 2017-18.

The Forum said the amounts shown as released against many of the projects by drawal authority were doubtful as they had vague descriptions and without detailed locations of the projects.

The statement pointed out that Rs 18 lakh was shown as released to an unnamed NGO for purchase of a mini bus, Rs 70 lakh was released for tree plantation in Nagaland,

DIMAPUR, NOV 9 (NPN): BJP national general secretary (I/c North East), Ram Madhav, a former member of the national executive of the RSS, said government of India under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi was serious to resolve the vexed Naga political issue, “which would be a win-win situation for Nagaland.”

“Towards this, the “Prime Minister initiated dialogues with the NSCN (I-M) and subsequently with the other six NPGs,” Madhav said.

According to BJP state general secretary Eduzu Theluo, the national secretary said this, while addressing media persons at The Heritage, Kohima on November 8, during his twoday visit to the state. Madhav further expressed hope that the dialogues would “ultimately lead to lasting

solution” to the longstanding vexed Naga issue.

He was also optimistic that NSCN (K) would make up their minds towards resumption of ceasefire with the Centre for larger peace.

With regard to NPF severing ties with the BJP, Ram Madhav said that they had been in alliance for the last more than two decades.

On the current crisis within the NPF, he said it was internal matter of the party. “At the same time, we are in Government here in Nagaland,” he said. He, however, stated that the people of Nagaland were looking for an alternative to the present government. Madhav also called on chief minister TR Zeliang at the latter’s official residence on November 8. He also reviewed the overall situation in the state and was briefed by the party on the party activities in the state.

Re-tendering for 329 km roads by Dec

This is for information to all that the office of the Nagaland Post, Kohima has been shifted to Razhu Point, above Vijaya Bank Ltd (2nd Floor). All interested are hereby informed about the change of location.

This is it!

NEW DELHI/KOHIMA, NOV 9 (IANS): A private firm that had spent about Rs 1,000 crore for laying 329 km of roads in Nagaland, with little visible results on the ground, will again be in the running when the project is re-tendered next month, with the cost having tripled to Rs 3,000 crore, according to officials.

The project -- part of the central government’s Special Accelerated Road Development Programme in North East (SARDPNE) -- was to be executed by the Nagaland PWD in 2010 at a cost of Rs 1,130.66 crore.

However, private company Gayatri Constructions, which was awarded the work, spent six times more than the estimated cost just for earthwork and almost ran through the original budget. This had led to a dispute between the authorities and the contrac-

tor, following which the latter abandoned the project.

The matter remained in various courts till last year, when the Supreme Court ordered the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) to re-tender the project. The court also directed MoRTH and Nagaland government to ensure project completion within 42 months.

The stretches include the 35-km Longleng-Changtongya Road, the 100km Tamlu-Merangkong road, 66-km Phek-Pfutsero Road and 128-km ZunhebotoChakambama road. The fresh tenders will now be issued by NHIDCL. As part of the re-tendering process, officials from Nagaland government and the ministry recently held several deliberations and finalised the formalities, including a fresh DPR for the four roads, which will also ease connectiv-

ity between Nagaland and other NE states.

“We have got a fresh DPR made and are in a position to issue the tenders either by December 2017 or January 2018,” a senior official said.

Emphasising that road projects can become lifelines in remote parts of Nagaland, the government says that stretches will also boost trade in the state.

Sources in the ministry have said that after tendering process, the government will monitor every phase of the work and will fine the contractors if the work is delayed.

“We do not want any type of dispute this time like what had happened earlier. There has been a huge loss to the exchequer as the project cost has risen from Rs 1,100 crore to Rs 3,000 crore...” the official told IANS on condition of anonymity.

Rs 41 lakh was released for setting up of flower nursery in five places without mentioning their locations, Rs 80 lakh was released for setting up of eight dairy development projects without naming their locations, Rs 20 lakh was released for a seminar on global climate change without mentioning to which NGO or individual it was released, Rs 10 lakh each was released for construction of hostels at Dimapur, Peren, Kohima and Mokokchung, Rs 20 lakh was released for construction of office in Dimapur without mentioning what office, location, etc.

Under the circumstances, Nagaland Public Rights Awareness and Action Forum asked the department concerned to come clean on the issue by providing proper details of the projects, locations and the list of beneficiaries.

DIMAPUR, NOV 9 (NPN): As announced on November 7 last, the Eastern Nagaland College Students’ Union (ENCSU) on Thursday launched phase-I protest against the failure of the state government and higher education department to release the scholarship.

ENCSU through its media cell said with active participation of college students from across Nagaland the first day protest passed off successfully. Students

wore black badge as a sign of resentment against the state government and the higher education department, it stated.

The union stated that positive response from students irrespective of their jurisdiction and affiliation has encouraged it to stand firm and fight against “injustice policy” of the government and the department. Affirming that it was sincerely committed to fight until due share of students (Cont’d on p-7) was credited to their

NPF central youth wing suspends stir Correspondent

KOHIMA, NOV 9 (NPN): After vainly trying to force the NLA speaker to act on the demand to recognise the party chief whip appointed by the party and recognition of the leader of the NPF (SL) legislature party and disqualification of NPF (TRNR) legislators after fourteen days of continuous protest, the NPF central youth wing on Thursday decided to suspended its indefinite dharna outside Civil Secretariat, in view of the forthcoming General Convention (GC) slated to be held on November 22 at Kohima.

508 constables pass out of PTS life. Successfully completing the course itself is a big achievement and you are adding a new chapter in your career.”

“There are thousands of educated Naga youth who aspire to enter into police service and are determined to render their services for the welfare and security of the people, but they could not avail the opportunity as you are,” he added.

Patton urged the constables to always keep in mind that they were among the fortunate few to have been able to join the police force and dedicate their lives to the service of the people.

He said “From today, you are into a profession of public guardians with the motto ‘security, service and sacrifice’. You are now assigned with responsibilities to safeguard the lives of the people and their properties, even at the cost of sacrificing your own lives in the service of the people.”

Stating that he was aware that many who had joined as constables were highly qualified, he added that everyone had joined the service with a commitment to serve the people.

Pa t t o n u r ge d t h e qualified constables who had passed out not to be discouraged or undermine their jobs, but rather be a source of inspiration to

the common people in the society.

ASUD backs ENCSU ‘black-badge’ campaign DIMAPUR: Ao Students’ Union, Dimapur (ASUD) has extended its support to the ‘black-badge’ campaign spearheaded by the Eastern Nagaland College Students’ Union (ENCSU) over the failure of the department of Higher Education to resolve the issue of disbursement of Scheduled Tribes students’ scholarship.

In a statement issued, ASUD president, Lanutoshi Aier and general secretary, Moayanger Jamir said if the department’s clarification that the Ministry of Tribal Affairs had released only the first instalment was true, then it should not be difficult for the concerned authorities to produce valid documents supporting their claims so that the matter over “installment scholarship” was resolved once and for all.

“The whole cont r ove r s y s u r r o u n d i n g the implementation of scholarships in Nagaland is one that needs to be

viewed seriously. Every year, thousands of Naga students have to deal with the frustration of having to wait for their scholarships which get delayed for unknown reasons. The end result is that the youth of today are losing faith in the governmental machinery,” ASUD stated. While departments like Higher Education were expected to set a benchmark for the rest to follow, ASUD allegedly said “it appears as though it is itself involved in fraudulent conduct of a higher nature.”

ASUD also urged upon all tribal students’ bodies based out of Nagaland to pursue the matter collectively so that the pending amount “which our brothers and sisters deserve” was received by them at the earliest.

Lauding ENCSU for taking up the ‘black-badge’ campaign for the benefit of Naga students, the ASUD also expressed its willingness to extend all possible cooperation in the matter.

In a joint condemnation, TVC chairman, Nikhevi, STH Thilixu president, Khevili, TSU general secretary, Amento and TYO president, Hebonto, have demanded stern action and befitting punishment against the accused. The organisations have also appealed the law enforcing agencies to book the alleged culprit on non-bailable charges as per the law.

NIT Manipur crisis: two police officers suspended Correspondent

IMPHAL, Nov 9: Barely a day after Manipur chief minister N Biren Singh assured to resolve the crisis prevailing in National Institute of Technology (NIT) Manipur, state authority have placed two police officers under suspension on Thursday.

An order issued by Imphal West district police SP Themthing Ngashangva placed the two officers, SI Kh Sathyabanta Singh and SI A Ashok Kumar under suspension for “their misconduct and dereliction of duty.”

The crisis in the NIT began when some students sustained injuries during a scuffle between students of the institute and lo-

cal residents following an altercation on November 6 last. Some students of the institute were allegedly thrashed by the locals while they were returning to the campus.

Following the scuffle, on the next day irate students of the institute went berserk and vandalized buildings and vehicles belonging to the institute.

After the incident, police personnel were deployed in and around the campus to thwart further unwanted incidents.

However, the issue turned into a full blown crisis when some students from outside the state, mostly from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, had tried to leave Manipur on Wednesday.

The students trying

to leave the state were, however, brought back by the police after intercepting them on NH-2 in three Dimapur (Nagaland) bound buses.

Later, state chief minister N Biren Singh personally visited the institute yesterday (Wednesday) evening and assured to extend all possible help in solving their grievances.

Singh interacted with NIT authority and students to discuss the grievances of the students.

Regarding students’ concern about their security, the chief minister had informed that he had requested the higher authority of CRPF to depute a team of the Central paramilitary force at the campus.

KPLT denies hand in poaching

Assam Police arrests 5 militants

Correspondent

Morigaon, Nov 9 (PTI): Five militants, including a self-styled commander and a cadre of the outlawed Tiwa Liberation Army (TLA), and three rebels of Garo National liberation Army (GNLA) were arrested from Salang area of Meghalaya, an Assam Police officer said.

A police team from Morigaon district and security forces from neighbouring Meghalaya jointly nabbed the five militants last night. The militants were camping at Salang area of Meghalaya with a view to do arms training there, Deka said.

The five arrested were identified Motilal Deori, TLA cadre Sourav Deka and Meghalaya based GNLA militants Khasang A Marak, Smart A Marak and Arween A Marak acting as linkmen, the SP said.

Diphu, Nov 9: The Karbi Peoples’ Liberation Tiger (KPLT) Thursday denied it was involved in rhino poaching and has condemned the attempt of some police and forest departmental officials to club up the organization with the recent incident of poaching.

“The Kaziranga authority instead of being ashamed of their inability to prevent rhino poaching carried out next to their anti-rhino poaching camps is trying to cover up their utter failure by putting entire blame on Karbi militants,” said KPLT assistant general secretary Lotichari Kangtang Bey in a press release.

“Just a couple of days ago, the same authority did a media campaign over their success in rhino protection.

They made tall claims of using drones, night vision devices and so on,” Bey

said. On the other hand, the Karbi militants are fighting for their lawful rights and joined peace process for socio-economic development of their community and region, he added.

“Throughout the history, Karbis practiced living with nature and worshipped nature as their god. It is the few corrupted officials who made rhino protection a mockery by misappropriating the funds provided for rhino protection,” the press statement mentioned.

The outfit also said that Karbi Anglong has continued to be a safe haven for rhinos and other animals every year during flood.

“Nevertheless, not a single rhino poaching incident took place in our land in the last 5 years,” said KPLT. The outfit also insisted that the case be handed over to CBI under the supervision of judicial officers so that the real culprits would be revealed.

IMPHAL, Nov 9: Agitating students of Industrial Training Institute (ITI) Takyelpat, Imphal Thursday set afire two vehicles (cars) parked inside the

India rejects China’s objection to Def Min’s visit New Delhi, Nov 9 (PTI): India Thursday rejected China’s objection to Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s visit to Arunachal Pradesh, asserting that the state is an integral part of the country and Indian leaders are as much free to go there as to any other state.

“Arunachal Pradesh is integral part of India and Indian leaders have that much freedom to visit Arunachal as they have in visiting other states in the country,” external affairs ministry spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said.

To a question on next round of talks between Special Representatives of India and China on the boundary question, Kumar said both

sides are in touch with each other.

“We do not have any confirmed dates for talks as yet. The two sides are in touch. Once we have some dates for it, we will let you know,” he said during a media briefing.

On Monday, China had objected to Sitharaman’s first visit to Arunachal Pradesh on Saturday and Sunday, saying her tour of the “disputed area” was not conducive to peace in the region.

During her trip to the state, Sitharaman also visited forward army posts in the remote Anjaw district bordering China to take stock of defence preparedness.

China claims Arunachal Pradesh as part of South

Tibet and routinely objects to top Indian officials’ visits to the area.

Asked about China’s comment yesterday that India’s stand on the multibillion dollar Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is wavering, Kumar said New Delhi’s position on the issue is “very clear” and “principled”.

“We have seen the releavent remarks. India’s position on connectivity is very clear, (it) is principled and is consistent....

“As regards the so called CPEC (China-Pakistan Economic Corridor), it is also well known that it violates India’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” Kumar said.

China yesterday said India’s stand on its BRI is

wavering, and the CPEC, a part of the project, does not involve any territorial dispute as claimed by New Delhi. China has been reiterating that the USD 50 billion CPEC which traverses through the Pakistanoccupied Kashmir is a connectivity project and will not affect its stand that the Kashmir issue should be resolved between India and Pakistan through talks.

India has objected to the CPEC as it is being laid through the disputed territory and boycotted a high-profile Belt and Road Forum organised by China in May. Kumar said India will always be open to any efforts which will address its legitimate concerns in this regard.

Delhi govt declares pollution emergency

Delhi High Court issues emergency measures

The Delhi High Court has issued a slew of directions to improve air quality, including watering of roads, to minimise dust.

Calling it an “emergency situation”, a Bench of Justices S Ravindra Bhat and Sanjeev Sachdeva on Thursday asked the government to consider the option of “cloud seeding” to induce rainfall artificially, as an immediate step to bring down the dust and particulate matter in the atmosphere.

It directed the Delhi

Ryan murder: Pradyuman’s parents want harsh action New Delhi, Nov 9 (Agencies): The Class 11 student of Ryan International School, apprehended by the CBI for allegedly killing a seven-year-old student, has confessed to his crime, the agency has told a juvenile court.

In its note seeking remand of the 16-year-old student from the juvenile court in Gurugram the agency said that his custodial interrogation was needed to ascertain if there were other people involved in the crime.

The agency also wants the teenager to identify the shop from where he had purchased the knife used to slit the throat of Pradhuman, a Class 2 student, on September 8, the agency told the court, PTI reported.

M e a n w h i l e, t h e victim`s family has demanded that the juvenile student be tried as an adult and accordingly, be given a

harsh punishment.

“The age of the arrested student falls into the category of 16 to 18. Therefore, there is an option with the board to try him as an adult. We demand a strict punishment for him, and we`ll ensure he is tried as an adult and is hanged till death,” Sushil Tekriwal, the advocate of Pradyuman`s family has said.

The advocate, however, did not rule out the involvement of the school management in shielding the student.

“We still believe there is a deep-rooted conspiracy hatched on part of various people, including the student who has been arrested.

The CBI inquiry also indicates the involvement of the Pinto family, and it has not ruled out that possibility,” the advocate said, adding, “Wiping out all evidences could not have been possible without the involvement of the top notches.”

government to seriously consider a ban on further construction in the city to the extent possible and implementing the ‘odd-even’ vehicle usage scheme as a short-term measure.

“What we are facing today has already been faced

by London. They call it a pea soup fog. It is a killer.

Stubble burning is the visible villain in it, but there are other elephants in the room,” the Bench said.

It said the fog here was a “deadly mixture of vehicular pollution, construction and road dust and stubble burning.”

Pea soup, or a pea souper, also called black fog, killer fog or smog is a very thick and often yellowish, greenish or blackish fog caused by air pollution that contains soot particulates and the poisonous gas sulphur dioxide. Such a fog had engulfed London in 1952.

Directions were also

issued by the Bench to the Delhi Traffic Police to ensure there is no vehicular congestion on the roads and provide masks to the personnel on duty.

The Bench also ordered the Union Environment Secretary to hold a meeting in the next three days of the chief secretaries of Delhi, Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh to work out a joint short-term plan to bring down air pollution.

The Bench issued the directions, after senior advocate and amicus curiae Kailash Vasdev told the court that emergent steps were required to improve the air quality in the city.

The court also took on record the steps proposed to be taken by the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) after a meeting held with the Lieutenant Governor on Wednesday.

The proposed steps include quadrupling of parking fees in the city, ban on entry of trucks except those carrying essential commodities, prohibition on construction activities, increasing the services of Metro and DTC, cleaning of roads, banning brick-kilns and stopping of use of fire-wood and coal in hotels, DPCC’s lawyer Sanjeev Ralli told the court.

The Bench, however, did not agree with the quadrupling of the parking fees.

The court was hearing a PIL initiated by it to curb air pollution in the National Capital. It has been issuing directions time-to-time in this regard.

NEW DELHI, NOV 9 (AGENCIES): Himachal Pradesh on Thursday recorded its highest polling in assembly elections with 74 per cent of voters exercising their franchise, the Election Commission said.

The figure was till 5 p.m. and the final polling percentage may be revised as final voting figures are yet to be tallied.

Polling was still on in about 500 booths.

The previous highest polling percentage of 73.5 was recorded in the 2012 assembly polls, deputy election commissioner Sandeep Saxena said. In the 2014 Lok Sabha polls, it was 64.45 per cent.

At a press conference, Saxena said the elections were peaceful and no incident of violence was reported.

A total of 11,283 VVPAT units were used in all polling booths of the 68 constituencies out of which 297 were replaced, Saxena said, adding this was well within the technical limits.

The Congress is currently ruling the hill state and the BJP is eyeing to return to power after a gap of five years.

In the outgoing 68member assembly, the Congress and the BJP had 35 and 28 MLAs respectively.

There were four Independent MLAs while one seat was vacant.

The BJP is confident of getting a huge majority, claiming that the tally of the incumbent Congress would be reduced to single digit in the 68-member House.

NEW DELHI, NOV 9 (IANS): In a bid to help communities recover and rebuild faster in the aftermath of natural disasters in India, Facebook on Thursday introduced new measures, including its ‘Disaster Maps’ feature in the country.

As part of the effort, Facebook will make data from ‘Disaster Maps’ available to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and the Sustainable Environment and Ecological Development Society (SEEDS), a non-profit organisation working on disaster resilience.

‘Disaster Maps’, which was introduced globally in June, uses aggregated, deidentified Facebook data to help organisations address the critical gap in information they often face when responding to natural disasters.

“In times of disaster, our platform is a valuable source of information -whether it’s letting your friends and family know you are safe with ‘Safety Check’

feature or using Facebook to raise donations for relief efforts,” said Ritesh Mehta, Head of Programmes, India, South and Central Asia at Facebook.

“Through our work with the National Disaster Management Authority and the roll out of Disaster Maps in India and the disaster information volunteers initiative, we hope we can help communities get the information they need to prepare, respond and recover if disaster strikes,” he added. The measures were announced at Facebook’s first annual ‘Disaster Response Summit’ here, attended by policy makers, think tanks and humanitarian organisations. Facebook will provide multiple types of maps during disaster response efforts.

‘Lo c a tio n D e nsity Maps’ show where people are located before, during and after a disaster.

“We can compare this information to historical records, like population estimates based on satellite

images. Comparing these data sets can help response organizations understand areas impacted by a natural disaster,” Facebook said in a statement.

‘Movement Maps’ illustrate patterns of movement between different neighbourhoods or cities over a period of several hours. By understanding these patterns, response organisations can better predict where resources will be needed, gain insight into patterns of evacuation or predict where traffic will be most congested.

“Safety Check” maps are based on where Facebook community uses ‘Safety Check’ feature to notify their friends and family that they are safe during a disaster.

Facebook is also supporting the pilot of the ASKDIV (Disaster Information Volunteers) scheme where a network of trained volunteers provide supplementary information to inform relief efforts through the Facebook ‘Workplace’ platform.

Raids on over 180 premises: Dhinakaran cries ‘conspiracy’

Chennai, Nov 9 (PTI): Income Tax sleuths Thursday carried out simultaneous multi-city raids on 187 premises including those linked to sidelined AIADMK leaders V K Sasikala and her nephew T T V Dhinakaran and Tamil television channel Jaya TV over suspected tax evasion.

Dhinakaran, the deposed AIADMK deputy general secretary, condemned as a “conspiracy” the searches undertaken by the Income Tax department(I-T) mostly in Tamil Nadu and targeted the Centre.

Jaya TV premises in Chennai and Dhinakaran’s farm house were searched as part of ‘Operation Clean Money,’ under which premises belonging to ten Income Tax assessee groups were searched, a senior I-T official told PTI here.

Of the 187 premises where the searches were conducted, most of it were in Tamil Nadu, a handful in Hyderabad, three in New Delhi, and one in Bengaluru, he said. Such premises also include some which are linked to Jaya TV, Dhinakaran, Sasikala, and her brother Divakaran and they all fall under the category of assessees tagged for suspected tax evasion, the official said.

Dubbing the searches a “conspiracy”, Dhinakaran alleged it was to oust him and his jailed aunt from politics.

The searched premises include those belonging to Jaya TV (Mavis Satcom Ltd), its associates, Jazz Cinemas, an alcoholic beverages brewery, Midas Distilleries, a jewellery outlet and other firms, the official said.

The brewery and cinema firm are reported to be associated with some of those linked to Jaya TV, Sasikala and Dhinakaran. Jaya TV, which was named after late chief minister Jayalalithaa and was the party’s mouthpiece, is now perceived to be favourably politically disposed towards Sasikala and Dhinakaran.

The scheme will be in place from 8 am to 8 pm and there will exemptions for women drivers and two-wheelers, Gahlot said. “The exemptions will be similar as last year and there is no need for people to panic,” he told reporters.

The decision comes as air pollution levels spiked in the National Capital.

Under the policy, private vehicles are allowed to run based on the last number of their licence plates.

A very heavy price

xcept for the NDA government at the Centre and the states ruled by BJP and it alliance partners, the rest of India that includes the non-NDA governments but most importantly, the ordinary Indian have their own experience to tell about the demonetisation that was launched like a surgical strike on November 8, 2016 midnight. A year after demonetisation the centre continues to maintain that the decision has achieved remarkable results. The main objective of demonetisation was to tackle black money, prevent terror-funding and enable a cashless society. The results of the demonetisation show that it has not succeeded in keeping out black money since nearly 99% of cash has come back to the banking system. Contrary to its expectation, almost the entire black money stash found demonetisation an easy way to blend in the banking system and thereby earn interest. Even the attempt to curb counterfeit notes through the move failed. Next the objective of preventing terror-funding appears to have failed to check terror acts even if a very insignificant amount may have been confiscated. However, in a bizarre defence, the finance minister had recently gone on to state that demonetisation had reduced stone pelting in J&K. The statistics bandied by the government on the claim that demonetisation was a big success appears to have been torpedoed by several facts and figures which many renowned economists and academicians had given out through articles or during television debates. Regarding the much vaunted digitalisation of India towards a cashless society, it is evident that the tempo was accelerated by demonetisation but it quickly slowed down after newly printed cash was infused into the system. The other factor that had also encouraged cash transaction was GST which had compounded the problems of small businesses as they found that dealing in cash eased doing business and escape the ordeal of having to file cumbersome tax returns. Demonetisation may have forced people to comply with the tax rule but it is with dread and resentment which totally hurt the sentiments of not only the people but the investors.

The unleashing of tax rules by the Modi government has also destroyed the household savings of millions of lower middle class families by forcing the women to disclose their small reserves and ending the Indian culture of micro-savings. The one big achievement of demonetisation was that it prevented opposition parties from using their undisclosed cash for fighting the recently concluded assembly elections in UP. According to a recent media report, demonetisation destroyed the informal financial cushion that often came in handy at times of a family crisis. It was also pointed out that the lifetime savings of Gurkha regiment retirees in Nepal became worthless. Similarly, Indian currencies kept as valued forex by millions of citizens in neighbouring Bhutan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Myanmar became worthless paper, thereby eroding trust in the Indian rupee. Imagine, if the US were to do the same with the dollar. Most well meaning citizens still believe and hope that demonetisation will eventually plug the loopholes against black money but that appears to be unfounded since black money is not necessarily money but can be in the shape of jewellery or real estate etc. By using ordinance the government appears to be passing new orders every fortnight to weed out black money and in the process have only created bigger problems.

DailyDevotion Sacred Service I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ… —Colossians 1:24 The Christian worker has to be a sacred “gobetween.” He must be so closely identified with his Lord and the reality of His redemption that Christ can continually bring His creating life through him.

I am not referring to the strength of one individual’s personality being superimposed on another, but the real presence of Christ coming through every aspect of the worker’s life. When we preach the historical facts of the life and death of our Lord as they are conveyed in the New Testament, our words are made sacred. God uses these words, on the basis of His redemption, to create something in those who listen which otherwise could never have been created. If we simply preach the effects of redemption in the human life instead of the revealed, divine truth regarding Jesus Himself, the result is not new birth in those who listen. The result is a refined religious lifestyle, and the Spirit of God cannot witness to it because such preaching is in a realm other than His. We must make sure that we are living in such harmony with God that as we proclaim His truth He can create in others those things which He alone can do.

When we say, “What a wonderful personality, what a fascinating person, and what wonderful insight!” then what opportunity does the gospel of God have through all of that? It cannot get through, because the attraction is to the messenger and not the message. If a person attracts through his personality, that becomes his appeal. If, however, he is identified with the Lord Himself, then the appeal becomes what Jesus Christ can do. The danger is to glory in men, yet Jesus says we are to lift up only Him (see John 12:32).

Unmasking the powers: The spiritual forces behind all our actions

T

he ancient people --Hebrews, Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, Chinese, Japanese, Africans, Indians --- shared a common belief that every material reality has a spiritual dimension, and every physical reality has a spiritual consequence.

But today it is not so popular to speak of the physical world as having a spiritual dimension. Materialism outlaws it, because materialists claim that there is no God, no heaven, no soul, no spiritual world; nothing but what can be known only through the five senses. Consequently, they assume that survival and self-gratification in the hereand-now is all that matters, because when we die we cease to exist. There is no right or wrong, they say, except what societies agree upon for mutual benefits.

Today this worldview has become so widespread and popular that it is virtually identified with being scientific, even though many scientists are now acknowledging the existence of other dimensions outside of our sensory grasp.

Most theologians, on

the other hand, are too ready to concede the physical world to science and confine themselves to the spiritual realm. Of course, the materialists are only too glad to concede to the theologians the spiritual realm, since they do not believe it exists anyway.

This is, however, not the position of this writer.

My contention is that spiritual reality is at the heart of everything, from religious groups to civil societies, from local governments to national politics, from business corporations to student organizations, and so on.

According to the Bible, everything and everybody have their existence in God (Acts 17:28; Col. 1:16-17; Rev. 4:11). In some mysterious ways, His presence is everywhere in the universe.

That means He is also not just within you and me but within everything. This is not pantheism, where everything is God, but panen-theism, which means everything is in God and He is in everything. As such, there is something divine or spiritual in everything.

But the divine Spirit is not the only spiritual reality

in the universe. There are anti-Christ as a political many other spiritual reali- system that embodies the ties, too. For example, the ultimate evil.

Apostle Paul talks about our Even in non-religious fight as Christians to be “not sense, we all speak of power against flesh and blood, but and authority as deriving against the rulers, against from positions in instituthe authorities, against the tions. Although those who powers of this dark world hold these positions may and against the spiritual not be inherently powerforces of evil in the heav- ful themselves, they are enly realms” considered (Eph. 6:12).

Furthereconomic system, the spirit more, when an entire netof Rome as a false religious work of power becomes insystem, and the spirit of the tegrated around idolatrous

values, we get what is called a “domination system.” In such a case, that structure or system has betrayed its divine vocation and become a tool in the hand of evil spirits or demons.

That means the demons can embody themselves in institutions and structures in much the same way as they could do in humans, serpents, pigs, stones, or trees (perhaps Hindus are more aware of this fact than people of other faiths).

When those in higher-level positions are not consciously making use of their power as God would want them to, then another spiritual force, or the devil, can take over those human leaders, operate through them, and gain access to the “powers” and “authorities” existing in institutions, structures, and systems.

This is how Satan works.

That’s why the Apostle Paul exhorts every Christian to be aware of these “devil’s schemes” (Eph. 6:11).

So, what should be our response as Christians?

First, we must, according to Paul, put on the whole armor of God and fight not as against any individual

but against the perversion of the “powers” and “authorities,” if I may say so, in the institutions, structures, and systems, among others (Eph. 6:13-18). This is because evil is not just personal, but structural and spiritual.

S e c o n d ly, w h e n a particular power becomes idolatrous – that is, when it pursues a vocation other than the one for which God had it come to existence – then that power becomes self-centered and thus demonic. Then, our spiritual task is to unmask this idolatry and recall the powers to be in line with the divine purposes. But this can hardly be accomplished by individuals. A group is needed – what the New Testament calls “the church” – one that exists specifically to the task of recalling these “powers” and “authorities” to their divine vocation. This was to be the task of the church, so that “through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities” (Eph. 3:10) and the “powers of this dark world” (Eph. 6:12).

Post-mortem

Pan-Naga state, Art. 371-A and Pan-India

T

he near-end anticipated solution to decades-old Naga struggle for freedom is under hard wine-sledge for final settling.

The hope, the doubt and the desire for fulfilling the aspiration of the Nagas is challenged by the political circumstances and ideologies of India. Nagas are into the political climate of India for so long either for a solution or a surrender. The destiny of the Nagas’ political journey is determined by the current talk. The choice for freedom or for slave-doom lies with the people. Think hard.

Whereas the Nagas are still hovering over apprehensive assumption and high anticipation out of the Frame-working talk with the GOI. It is good to anticipate a positive solution. It is also pertinent to think beyond the anticipated solution.

Knowing well that, the outcome of the talk would be mutual sharing of rights between the two entities: Even sharing the sovereign rights of Nagas with India. Talk on the principle of Share sovereignty is but one sided sharing. The other side of the sovereignty cannot be shared but allowance given under provisional limitation. A greater Art.371.-A or modified provision as the solution for the Nagas? The truth is, sovereign right cannot be shared.

Power can be shared. Mutual rights can be maintained and established.

The inherent rights of the Nagas over their land and resources are of divine provisions made for the Nagas and not for any other racial stock.

Any sort of appeasement policy for resolving the conflicting issues is wrong before God and men. Both the sides must come clean and right before God. Viewed and seen that Nagas are still not clear with the concept of national movement and revolutionary movement. Nagas’ politics are now seen as revolutionary and less of Nationalism. The nature and status of the current talk tells lessons to improve. Basically, Nagas’ struggle was a struggle of rights to live as a people and nation on the basis of right to self determination.

The Naga Plebiscite of May 16, 1951 have been brutally attacked with the missile hit of 16 Points Agreement that turned and tuned the many Nagas with the magical spell of Art.371-A. The Nagas are still under the spell. Nevertheless, the plebiscite speaks of the rights that Nagas wanted to live together as a people and nation in their own land. That right remains. That is the sovereign right of the Nagas. That right is non-negotiable; uncompromising sovereign will of the Nagas as to any nation of the world over their own sovereignty and so is to Indian.

In the beginning of the Naga struggle for sovereign independent, the spirit was strong with one accord for Naga Nation. Later and contemporary Naga political game turned revolutionary within Indian national administration. However, the Nagas as a national community are ideologically still struggling to be free from the bondaged condition under India domination. The Nagas since the time of British occupation up to the time of Indian invasion and now in the pool of Indian political game depicts a century of suffering

as a people and Nation. The world is watching the Naga drama of the turning politics. The Nagas’ political right to self determination could not find home where the heart is.

The turning point of Naga politic from National movement to revolutionary movement within Indian national administrative politic is making a chaotic pool where Naga swimming and trying to survive in the water of Indian economy. Now out of the long weary struggle, Nagas are making a turn of another political outlook called Pan-Naga position. The Naga sovereign right is conditioned as shared. Politic of Share sovereignty comes a way to seemingly possible solution for the Nagas as the right step to political settlement. Before attaining the sovereign status of global-wide recognition, Nagas are made to share its sovereign right with the dominion Indian nation. Now therefore, Nagas are Pan-India. Pan-Naga within the Nagas is something to be considered as surprising turn of politic. Pan-Myanmar is Pan-India partnership of a divided Naga home.

Some of the Nagas are stooping too low to feel and envy even about the position of Pan-Naga Hoho politic.

Their apprehension is but colouring the Nagas by terming Nagas of Nagaland, Manipur, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and Myanmar on the basis of Indian states’ territorial boundaries. The states’ boundary being arbitrary and controversial is being accepted by Nagas to divide themselves only to create adverse prejudice and ill feeling among and within the Nagas. Subsequently, Nagas are forming and further dividing classes and factions only to end up hurting self. The division within the given Nagaland state only depicts the Naga downfall and uprising of crises within. The picture is generally seen as a miserable lot and ugly shape of the Naga Home is dramatizing.

More ugly and unfortunate is to know the fact that the tussling and twisting among the Naga factions on the so far progress and process of the Frame-work Agreement is seen as premature politic. Pride and boasting, bragging and holding power over the position of one faction against other faction or for the matter rule out attitude of one faction over the other are destroying the national unity, prestige and understanding of the Nagas. A stage must come soon where and when all the concerned national workers reconciled themselves before God and humbly come together for a united move toward finding a single and final settlement that will be lasting and realistic. No Naga tribe is lesser or greater, bigger or smaller over the other but one racial origin with a vision to live together as a nation among nations of the world.

When our outlook is heightened our vision will be nearer and clearer. If we remain stiff-necked and confined to looking at the wall of limitation and bar of Art.371.A, we will remain under succumbed state of half death.

The present state of Nagaland has divided the Nagas of Nagaland into Aos, Rengma, Konyak, lothas and Zeme of Nagaland and of Assam.

Greater division are of Naga tribes of Assam, Nagaland, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Mynmar,

making Nagas look with an eye of resentment, contention and of discriminative branding. All these ugly scenes and foolishness are born of our own making and the imposing demarcation of Indian state boundaries that divides our land and then our people. It is high time that we change our political outlook and visualize our common future. Lest we lose our right to live in freedom as a people and nation.

I perceive Nagas’ Political mentality need broader range of visionary dimension. Nagas need to understand the common aspiration and vision for common future as a nation and people. There is no need for factional ideologies and groups for Naga cause to be resolved.

We need to kill all factional and self interests and go for common building of understanding among ourselves. Nagas in Northeast are located in compact areas. Curving out for a Nagaland state by cutting off parts of Nagas’ land and the people have been greatly disadvantaged and divided the Nagas. The Nagas within the present Nagaland state have been apportioned under Art.371-A. with a special grant provision. Whereas the rest of the Nagas outside the state have been discriminately suffering as minor and deprived for too long of the provisions by the major and dominant people of the states. Their pathetic grievances are not considered and left to their own fate. The folly of the Nagas is that, we matter so much about the arbitrary state boundaries that have differentiated the Nagas into many colours and classes within and without. No feeling of closeness, love and concern prevail strong in the hearts of the Nagas anymore for one another.

Naganess and people hood is not much sensed among the Nagas as before. Nagas are subjecting and subscribing to the condition made by outside political forces. Corruptive powers have befooled the Nagas and blinded their eyes of discernment.

The hearts of many discerning Naga leaders are sensing these shortcomings and failures yet they could not come out daring; for lack of courage to speak up the truth. The fact is a typical nature and character of the Nagas at large. Negation is more than acceptance. Positive mental perception is not used to or accustomed. Fear of future or of mistaking is gripping the minds of the Nagas. It could be for reason of past blunders and failures. It is time to generate a power of political reasoning, moral discernment about Nagas’ stand and destiny.

Nagas know their rights but fails to exercise in the right perspective.

Therefore, we need analytical evaluation and frame out a new political chart, a road map to secure a new common political future. When that stage and state of realization come, Nagas will experience and gain a wider and greater dimension of unity, understanding and love that can cover the whole Naga family.

Let us walk the talk till the end with a mean. We need wholesome love and understanding with forbearance in the way we treat each other and with the other people.

Declaration of NNC/FGN Rengma Region

T

he Rengma Region NNC/ FGN held a meeting on the 3rd of Nov. 2017 at Tseminyu town and reaffirmed its stand on the Rengma Naga Region Territory- that as framed in the NNC/FGN Yehzabo Part-1 Article 7, where the British Govt. (UK) in consultation with the Rengma Naga and the Ahom (Assam) people demarcated the Rengma Naga territory on the 18th of April 1841 and as declared to the world in the world map, the Region will not tolerate any outsiders/foreigners meddling in the affairs of its territory as demarcated in 1841 nor recede an iota of its land to any whatsoever. The Region further invalidated the legitimacy of the GOI Election upon the people of Nagas as forceful subjugation and derogatory to its national health.

Below are the resolutions adopted in the meeting : 1. The territory of the Rengma Naga Hills as recognised in the 9 Points Hyder Ali Agreement signed between Govt. of India (GOI) and Naga National Council (NNC) on the recommendation of Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Indian Nation, in 1946 in terms with the demarcation made by the British Govt. (UK) will not be subjected to be meddled in its affairs from any neighbouring Indian State/s or nation/s within its boundary as infringed in the NNC/FGN Yehzabo and adopted in the Plebiscite of the Naga people.

2. The Rengma Region NNC/FGN, as framed in the NNC/FGN Yehzabo Part-1 Article 7 and in lines with the demarcation made by the British Govt. (UK), will not recede an iota of its land to any state/ nation whatsoever as infringed upon in the NNC/FGN Yehzabo and as adopted in the Plebiscite of the Naga people.

3. The Rengma Region NNC/FGN appeals to all the Naga people in general to be wary of the Indian Govt.’s political carnage against the Nagas- that the land of the Nagas were never a part of any nation apart from itself justified by our unique history, cultural/traditional, political

and natural birth right endowed to us by God- that the Naga people under the directive of the first Republic Govt. of India’s parliament in 1951 established its position as a Nation when the Nagas witnessed a 99.99 % positive participation in the Plebiscite of 16th of May 1951 against the forceful subjugation of the Indian Govt. and until the declaration of the International Ceasefire Agreement between Govt. of India and Federal Govt. of Nagaland on the 6th of Sept. 1964, the Naga people under NNC/FGN have wilfully shunned the forceful political subjugation (Election) of the Indian Govt. Till date the NNC/ FGN had not lost an iota of its land nor compromised it to the Indian Govt. in the struggle for independence. India’s corrosive control over the Nagas through destructive machineries such as Armed Forces Special Power Act (AFSPA), Killing, Threatening, Faction-ism, Kidnapping, Torture, Rape, Drugs, Alcohol, Idol Worship, Destruction of Common Properties, Unrepaired century-old roads from World War 1 and World War 2 etc calls for the Naga people to out-rightly reject Foreign Election. The Naga people must forsake the fallacy of India’s social, political and economic blunder against the Nagas and embrace the sacred emblem of God’s given six headed trinity stars and the symbol of peace (rainbow) flag within the NNC/ FGN Yehzabo, Plebiscite and one’s Baptismal oath, as prophesized to us, Nagas, through His words- Mathew 22: 37-40 and John 13:12-15 and thus elect Clean Leaders through Clean Election in harbouring Naga National development and the Naga people’s progress and in the same-while maintaining peace and cordial relation with the neighbouring states and nations.

Sir,

Instil the importance of giving

Christmas can either bring out the Grinch or the giver in all of us. While many people go shopping to bigger cities, take trips to neighbouring countries with families and friends, does it ever cross some of our minds that there is no better time than Christmas to teach children as well as ourselves about the importance of giving? By focusing on giving, the true meaning of Christmas will be experienced not only by the recipients of the gifts, but also by the givers. This season, let us give as said in the Bible, “Do not forget the doing of good and the sharing of things with others, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” (Hebrews 13:16).

New Delhi, Nov 9 (Age ncies): Citing from his experience of running the Prince of Wales Youth Business Trust for over four decades, Prince Charles said on Thursday that lending money to budding young entrepreneurs was good, but they also needed mentoring in their initial years to build durable businesses.

“We discovered in the United Kingdom, after 41 years, that it’s all very well to lend money to young businesses, but what really makes a difference to the sustainability and durability of these businesses is the handholding and advice in the first two or three years — particularly when trying

to deal with the appalling complications of cash flows and all the pitfalls that you can fall into,” he said.

According to The Hindu, Prince Charles said this while speaking at a mentoring summit to mark the 25th anniversary of industry-backed NGO Bharatiya Yuva Shaki Trust (BYST). he also recalled a chance meeting with former President R. Venkataraman’s daughter that led to the Trust’s formation in India.

“I don’t know how many of you realise it all started from a State visit

by Lakshmi (Venkatesan)’s parents to London nearly 30 years ago. I happened to be sitting next to Lakshmi at lunch at the Buckingham

Palace,” Prince Charles said.

“During the course of the conversation, I happened to mention the work my Prince of Wales Trust in the United Kingdom had been trying to do, particularly in this field of business start-ups for young people.

To my astonishment, she became very enthusiastic.

So we sent her the details at the end of the State visit … and in this case, one thing definitely led to another,” he said.

Vice-President Venkaiah Naidu acknowledged that the Prince was the inspiration for the BYST’s youth entrepreneurship programme for underprivileged youth.

NPF central youth wing suspends stir

(From p-1)

The indefinite sit-in protest began on October 23, against the NLA speaker’s inaction to settle cases regarding the disqualification issue, recognition of NPF legislature party leader and recognition of the NPF chief whip.

Informing that the protest would resume anytime, the youth wing appealed to the party workers to be prepared for the next phase.

Speaking at the protest, DAN chairman, Kuzholuzo (Azo) Nienu, MLA said the silence of NLA speaker itself was an achievement. The speaker will have sleepless nights unless he acts on the petitions, Azo added.

Lauding the efforts of the youth wing for organizing the protest, Azo said in order to strengthen the party and serve the people such sacrifices was needed.

Azo lamented that the current 12th NLA was full of chaos because of disrespect for one another.

However, he said as leaders one should have a forgiving heart without condition to have a stronger government.

Azo also revealed that within few weeks, some positive changes were likely to take place. He therefore appealed to the party workers to stand firm and strengthen the party.Yitachu, MLA, in his address acknowledged the youth wing

for upholding the party’s motto-- “Fide Non Armies”, by staging the protest in a peaceful manner.

Through this protest, it has send across a message that no governor in future would risk to play with the rights of the Nagas, he said.

Yitachu said during the 14 days protest, the youth wing and party workers had refrained from resorting to any kind of violence. The party workers have set an example that violence was not the ultimate solution, Yitachu said.

Asserting that rule of law should prevail in the state, Yitachu maintained that the party was not against any government as long as it was constitutional and legal.

Further, Yitachu made known that the party would not have any pre-poll alliance with BJP if elections were held in 2018. “The party has to live up to the expectation of the Nagas and serve the people,” he added.

NPF working president, Apong Pongener said if Naga political solution does not arrive before Christmas, the Assembly election in 2018 would be held as scheduled. In this regard, he called upon the party workers to be prepared.

The programme was chaired by NPF central youth wing president, Achamo Kikon while president N. Vihoshe Swu proposed vote of thanks.

(From p-1) Urging youths to take up skill jobs and run business establishments, Zeliang said that unless the youths of the state played their roles, it would be very difficult for the state government alone to contain illegal immigrants. Therefore, the chief minister appealed to all the young people gathered to seriously introspect and contribute towards solving this common problem.

On growing unemployment amongst the young educated people, the chief minister said it was also not possible for the state government to provide white collared jobs to all the educated youths. In this regard, Zeliang urged the youths to come out of the conventional way of thinking and explore new and innovative avenues and venture into unexplored areas if state was to overcome unemployment problem.

On the Naga political issue, the chief minister said that the seven decades old issue was not only concerning the NNPGs, the politicians or the elders, saying all must help in finding solution to the protracted Naga political problem. He said that it was now a golden opportunity for the Nagas and the government of India to resolve the issue amicably. The answer to various problems, the chief minister said lay in finding an honourable, acceptable and inclusive solution to the vexed Naga political problem.

In conclusion, the chief minister called upon all to commit to work together for the betterment of the future of the state. Earlier in the day, the chief minster upon his arrival hoisted ANCSU flag. The chief guest before delivering his address also released the conference magazine. At the programme, ANCSU president, Temjennungsang Jamir, delivered presidential address while organizing committee convener, N Ejanthung Ngullie, delivered key note address.

ENCSU launches phase-I agitation

(From p-1) until due share of students was credited to their respective account, the ENCSU, in this regard, has reiterated its appeal to all the Naga students to extend fullest cooperation to the union.

Further, the union stated that it has decided to continue wearing black badge even on November 10 after considering “adamant attitude” of the government and higher education department.

In this regard, the union has informed all the college representatives to implement its decision strictly. ENCSU cautioned that it would initiate “extreme action” if the government and department failed to respond even on November 10. The union further appealed to all the

college authorities and the students to extend support during the period of protest.

Meanwhile, the ENCSU has asked the government and the higher education department “to speak out the truth instead of issuing pathetic clarification with full of untruth.”

The union also sought response from the department on why it could not produce the copy of ministry’s directive that purportedly directed the department to disburse the scholarship on instalment basis.

ENCSU pointed out that the ministry on July 4, 2017 had rejected the proposal of the department due to non furnishing of utilization certificate for Rs. 13 crore, which was released by the Ministry of Tribal Affairs (Educa-

tion Section) on December 28, 2016, and had clearly directed the department to furnish the UC but the department failed to do so.

“But very sadly, the department made the rejection letter a directive and started to play blame game,” ENCSU stated.

The union therefore maintained that there was “no logic” behind the department blaming the ministry for delaying in disbursement of scholarship in full amount. Because had the department furnished the UC of Rs.13 crore, there would not be hue and cry from the student community today, it stated.

ENCSU stated that the current mess was the creation of the government and department and both have to own responsibility and release full scholarship immediately.

Do not burden the system with frivolous cases:CJI

New Delhi, Nov 9 (PTI): Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra Thursday deprecated the burdening of the judiciary with frivolous cases, saying one should approach court only when one feels “genuinely neglected”.

Speaking at an event to celebrate the Legal Services Day here organised by National Legal Service Authority (NALSA), he hailed the high courts across the country for working on Saturdays and disposing of more than 2,100 criminal appeals, which were pending for over a decade.

“There were matters more than 10 years old and I had written to all the high courts to focus and to deal with criminal appeals which were more than 10 years old.

“I had requested the chief justices to work on Saturdays and list the matter of the legal aid lawyers and till today all the high courts put together have disposed of more than 2,100 criminal appeals on Saturdays,” the CJI said.

Justice Misra, who shared the panel with Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, also said only genu-

ine cases should be filed to ensure smooth functioning of the system.

“Do not file frivolous cases. Do not burden the system. When a man has a genuine case and when he feels genuinely neglected, he will file and a judge will adjudicate according to merits,” he said.

Sure to get ‘Arrow’ symbol, says JD-U Sharad faction

NEW DELHI, NOV 9 (IANS): The JD-U’s Sharad Yadav faction on Thursday said it was sure of getting the party’s “Arrow” symbol from the Election Commission, which is hearing a dispute between the faction and the one led by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.

“We are sure the EC will allot us the Arrow symbol because we have the majority with us as per the party’s constitution. Nitish Kumar can’t override the National Council, which is the supreme decision making body of the party and whose majority is with us,” Janata Dal-United (JD-U) General Secretary Arun Kumar Shrivastav said here.

The Commission had held a hearing in the case on Tuesday where senior lawyer Kapil Sibal argued on behalf of the Sharad Yadav faction while senior advocate Gopal Singh represented the Nitish Kumar faction. According to Shrivastav, Sibal tried to impress upon the EC that the party’s National Council was the supreme body and not the party’s legislative body (MLAs, MLCs and MPs) and that the majority in the National Council was with Sharad Yadav.

same period last year.

The total investment demand for the July-September quarter was down by 23 per cent at 31 tonnes compared to 40.1 tonnes in the same period last year.

In value terms, the gold investment demand was at Rs 8,200 crore, down by 29 per cent from Rs 11,520 crore in the third quarter of 2016.

The total gold recycled in India in the third quarter of 2017 was 26.7 tonnes from 25.7 tonnes in the same period of 2016.

“India’s gold demand witnessed a decline of 24 per cent in the third quarter of 2017, as the newly introduced GST and AML around jeweller y retail transactions deterred gold buyers,” WGC’s managing director, India, Somasundaram PR said.

He said after three consecutive quarters of growth, the jewellery demand fell by 25 per cent, and that of bars and coins also fell by 23 per

cent to 31 tonnes.

“The drop can be attributed partly to some advance buying in the second quarter to pre-empt the introduction of GST in the third quarter,” he said.

However, he said, with the industry’s gradual transition to GST proceeding on expected lines, and removal of AML legislation, the demand during the festive season seems to show clear signs of recovery in the fourth quarter.

“This is also underpinned by the faster growth in imports ahead of demand, and price factors in the market.

“Headwinds for demand continue though, following various measures since early 2016 to boost transparency, and therefore we expect full year demand in 2017 to be well below the five-year average, our estimate being between 650 to 750 tonnes, the lower end of the range being more likely,” he said.

Mumbai, Nov 9 (PTI): India’s gold demand in the third quarter this year fell 24 per cent to 145.9 tonnes as the implementation of GST and anti-money laundering legislation (AML) around jewellery retail transactions kept buyers away, according to a report of the World Gold Council (WGC).

The gold demand in India stood at 193 tonnes during the third quarter of 2016, according to WGC’s Global gold demand in Q3 2017.

In value terms, the gold demand declined by 30 per cent at Rs 38,540 crore, compared to Rs 55,390 crore in the same period of 2016.

New Delhi, Nov 9 (PTI): Silver prices went up by Rs 125 to Rs 40,700 per kg at the bullion market Thursday, backed by a firm trend overseas and increased offtake by industrial units.

Gold, however, held steady at Rs 30,450 per 10 grams in scattered deals.

Traders attributed the rebound in silver prices to positive global cues and pick-up in demand from industrial units at the domestic spot market.

Globally, silver rose 0.47 per cent to USD 17.07 an ounce and gold by 0.21 per cent to USD 1,283.50 an ounce in Singapore.

In the national capital, silver ready traded higher by Rs 125 to Rs 40,700 per kg and weekly-based delivery

On whether the sector is on track to meet the 7 to 8 per cent export growth projected by industry body NASSCOM, he said, “I don’t know because most of the large companies are not growing at that pace.

Even if you look at Infosys they have reduced their guidance.”

“So, this year is going to be challenging on the growth front but probably next year demand could come back because developed markets are doing well,” he said.

Normally for the industry, he said, OctoberMarch period is challenging because the growth is lower on account of lot of holidays in December; and January-March being financial year beginning for most global companies, the spending environment is challenging in that quarter.

ministerial candidate.

She was elected as a Conservative MP for Witham in Essex in 2010 and gained prominence in the then David Cameron-led Tory government as his ‘Indian Diaspora Champion’.

She went on to be appointed to junior ministerial posts, treasury minister in 2014 and then employment minister after the 2015 general election, before May promoted her to secretary of state in the department for international development (DfID) last year.

A longstanding Eurosceptic, Patel is among the most vocal supporters of Brexit and had steered the ‘Vote Leave’ campaign in the lead up to the June 2016 referendum in favour of Britain’s exit from the European Union (EU).

Earlier this week, Downing Street had said that May had accepted Patel’s apology over a series of meetings while she was on holiday in Israel in August without reporting them to the Foreign Office.

Britain’s senior-most Indian-origin minister Priti Patel has resigned from her Cabinet post amid a political storm over her unauthorised secret meetings with Israeli politicians while on a holiday in the Jewish country.

Patel’s position as international development minister had become increasingly untenable after it emerged that she had two further meetings with Israeli officials that were not disclosed earlier.

The 45-year-old minister resigned last night after a meeting at Downing Street with Prime Minister Theresa May, who had summoned her midway from a tour of Africa.

In her resignation, Patel again apologised and said her actions “fell below the standards of transparency and openness that I have promoted and advocated”.

It follows a week of controversies around a dozen undisclosed meetings she had with other Israelis, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for which she had been forced to apologise.

Her departure from the Cabinet marks an abrupt halt to the meteoric rise of the Gujarati-origin MP, often touted as a potential future leader of the Conservative party and a prime

Karachi, Nov 9 (PTI): A suspected suicide bomber Thursday killed an Additional Inspector General and three other police officers in Pakistan’s southwestern Balochistan province, officials said, in the latest targeted attack on security forces in the restive region. The blast targeted the vehicle of Additional Inspector General (AIG) Telecommunications Hamid Shakeel who was passing through a residential area in the provincial capital Quetta.

Shakeel was killed along with two police officials while six others, including three officers, were injured, police said.

One of the wounded officers later succumbed to his injures in the hospital, taking the toll to four. Hours after the attack, the Tehrike-Taliban Pakistan, claimed responsibility for the attack, media reports said.

The TV footage showed that the vehicle was badly damaged in the attack.

Shakeel has served as Deputy Inspector General (DIG) operations, acting DIG investigations and AIG operations, as well as holding a number of other key posts.

The injured have been shifted to Combined Military Hospital (CMH) and Civil Hospital in Quetta, police said, adding that the initial probe showed that it was a suicide bombing.

The area has been cordoned off and a search operation has been launched in the surrounding areas.

Balochistan Governor Muhammad Khan Achakzai and Chief Minister Sanaullah Zehri have strongly condemned the attack.

Trump’s remarks assume significance after he unveiled his new South Asia policy under which the US has warned Pakistan against providing safe harbour to terrorist organisations.

Trump’s South Asia policy giving importance to India and inviting New Delhi to play a bigger role in reconstruction of Afghanistan has also raised eyebrows in Beijing and Islamabad.

During their talks here, Xi and Trump discussed Afghanistan and committed to working toward a peaceful future for the terrorist haven.

What I know is that the two sides also discussed anti- terrorism issues and upholding peace and stability in South Asia,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying told a media briefing.

To counter terrorism, China and the US as well as other countries share the common interests and the two countries stand ready to work with other parties for stronger anti- terrorism cooperation, she said.

South Asia and Afghanistan figured prominently in today’s talks as both the leaders mentioned it in their briefings.

Airies club.

During his six years in Manchester, Aguero has been prolific and his goal against Napoli in the Champions League allowed him to surpass Eric Brook’s record of 178 goals to become the club’s record goalscorer.

The 29-year-old has revealed he is keen to return to his boyhood club in two years when his current deal at the Etihad runs out, saying that was always “the idea”.

Aguero can extend his stay in Manchester for further year and the striker has said it is an “option”, but

remained coy on his future.

He said, “It came out that Milan and Real Madrid wanted me and - I don’t know where I read it - but they said, ‘They just spoiled Independiente’s dream.’ But the idea was always to go back to Independiente when my contract with City runs out in 2019.”

“I have an option to extend one more year with City where it’s the priority but it’s always an option.

The idea is to go back.

Now, I’m doing very well and hopefully we can win the cup [title], but it’s not easy.”
