Paradise Papers: 714 Indians on tax haven list

NEW DELHI, NOV 6 (IANS/AGENCIES): At least 714 Indians are named in documents leaked from two financial companies – Bermuda’s Appleby and Singapore’s Asiaciti – that help the rich and the powerful move their money abroad and invest it in 19 tax havens.

The findings have emerged as part of the Paradise Papers released by the US-based International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), which was behind the Panama Papers made public last year.

According to the report, India ranks 19th among 180 countries whose citizens and companies sheltered their wealth in secretive tax havens abroad. “In all, there are 714 Indians in the tally,” said the report in a front-page banner story done as part of a world-wide probe carried out by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ).

“Interestingly, it is an Indian company, Sun Group, founded by Nand Lal Khemka, that figures as Appleby’s second largest client internationally, with as many as 118 different offshore entities,” the report added.

No MNREGA Funds from Centre, states halt payments NEW DELHI, NOV 6 (AGENCIES): Payments under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act have been frozen in 19 states as of October 31 this year.

A report in IndiaSpend cites official government data and states that wages in Haryana have not been paid since August 31, 2017.

In states like Jharkhand, Karnataka and Kerala, payments have not been made since September this year.

Then there are states like Uttarakhand, Bihar, Tripura, Gujarat, Maharashtra where wages have not been paid since October.

If the states and the number of workers enrolled are to be considered, the data reflect that over 92 million active MNREGA workers may not be getting their pay on time. The amount of wages to be paid amount to somewhere close to Rs 3,066 crore. The report attributes statement by NREGA Sangharsh Morcha here.

The repor t fur ther states that the central government has not approved most payments for 20 days in March-April 2017, and around 8-% of such payments for May were not processed.

This is it!

“People don’t understand demonetisation and GST. It’s only due to Congress that these two haven’t worked well.”

The revelations form part of the largest ever leak of financial data involving two companies, Bermuda’s Appleby and Singapore’s Asiaciti, which helped the global rich and powerful, including from India, to move their money abroad.

The Express said that among Appleby’s Indian clients were several prominent corporates and companies which subsequently came under the scrutiny of investigating agencies like the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (EF).

These include firms in the Sun-TV-Aircel-Maxis case; Essar-Loop 2G case; SNS-Lavalin in which Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan was named and then cleared; the Rajasthan ambulance scam which has

recently been routed to the CBI and which names a company called Ziquista Healthcare (Sachin Pilot and Karti Chidambaram were early honorary/independent directors of the firms respectively); and fresh financial links in a CBI case against YSR Congress chief Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, the report said.

Minister of State for Civil Aviation Jayant Sinha’s name figures in the record because of his past association with Omidyar Network, so does the name of R.K. Sinha, BJP Rajya Sabha member of Parliament, in Malta offshore companies’ list.

“Besides corporates, the data revealed details of individuals as well; Amitabh Bachchan’s shareholding in a Bermuda company ac-

quired before the 2004 Liberalised Remittance Scheme kicked in; corporate lobbyist Niira Radia and film star Sanjay Dutt’s wife who figures under her former name Dilnashin,” the daily said.

According to the Express, this cache of 13.4 million documents named “Paradise Papers” tumbled out 18 months after Panama Papers: both sets of data were obtained by the German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung.

In India, as it did with Panama Papers, the report investigated these records - involving Indians and Indian entities -- for over 10 months to come up with the India findings which it said will be published in over 40 investigative reports beginning on Monday.

The documents – named the Paradise Papers – have not mentioned any evidence of illegality yet. Nand Lal Khemka’s Sun Group, Appleby’s second-largest client with 118 different offshore entities, was also mentioned in the list, The Indian Express reported. Jindal Steel, Apollo Tyres, Havells, Hindujas, Emaar MGF, Videocon, the Hiranandani Group and

DS Construction are other major corporate names on the list. Several prominent companies under the scanner of the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Enforcement Directorate are also listed as Appleby’s clients.

The Paradise Papers also shared information about United States Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross’s business ties to a shipping company that is linked to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle, AFP reported. It also revealed Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II’s investments in tax havens.

MAG to investigate

A multi-agency group (MAG) probing the Panama Papers leak will look into the ‘Paradise Papers’ on financial holdings abroad that list a number of 714 Indian individuals and entities, official sources said today.

The sources said the MAG, constituted in April last year to investigate the legality of money stashed in offshore entities by Indians named in the Panama Papers, would probe the latest disclosure made by the ICIJ.

‘Deranged’ gunman kills 26 worshippers in Texas church WASHINGTON, NOV 6 (IANS): A lone gunman carrying a military-style rifle opened fire on worshippers at a Baptist church in Texas killing 26 people in one of the deadliest mass shooting in the US state’s history, media reports said. The attack took place on Sunday morning in Sutherland Springs, a small town some 45 km southeast of San Antonio city. Law enforcement officials told The New York Times that the gunman was identified as Devin Patrick Kelley, 26, who died shortly after the attack. The cause of his death was being investigated.

President Donald Trump, at a news conference on Monday in Tokyo, said that he thought “mental health” was the problem, reports The Washington Post. “Based on preliminary reports,” he said, the shooter was “a very deranged individual, a lot of problems for a long period of time”.

Kelley started firing at the First Baptist Church shortly after the morning service began at 11 a.m., the police said. He was armed with a Ruger AR-556 rifle, and within minutes, many

Law enforcement officers outside the Church (inset) the shooter.

of those inside the small church were dead and injured. After the carnage, a local resident engaged Kelley in a gun battle as he exited the church. Kelley fled at high speed with the civilian in pursuit before running off the roadway, where he was later found dead. “The local citizen pursued him,” Freeman Martin, a senior official for the Texas Department of Public Safety told The Washington Post.

“We don’t know if it was a self-inflicted gunshot wound or if he was shot by our local resident who engaged him in a gunfight.”

KOHIMA, NOV 6 (NPN): Irked by the silence of Governor PB Acharya even after 11 days of protest by NPF central youth wing against the NLA speaker, Dr.Imtiwapang Aier, NPF legislator and spokesperson Yitachu, MLA said Nagaland was the only state in the country where a Governor had put the entire government machinery at risk.

Speaking at the Civil Secretariat here, which has been the venue of the ongoing protest, Yitachu said the sitin was almost nearing a fortnight and yet the Governor was maintaining complete silence.

Denouncing the alleged indifferent attitude of Acharya reflected in him not sending the letter of NPF Central Youth Wing to the President of India till Monday, Yitachu said if the Governor and Nagaland Legislative Assembly (NLA) Speaker could terrorise the Chief Secretary, then other officers stood no chance and asked whether this was the way to deliver good governance.

DIMAPUR, NOV 6 (NPN): With the approaching festive season likely to result in a huge footfall in the State’s commercial hub, Sumi Council Dimapur (SCD) has asked residents of the town to remain alert to ensure that visitors are not harassed by unscrupulous elements.

In a statement, SCD chairman Kuhoi Zhimo said shoppers from across Nagaland as well as the neighbouring States flock to Dimapur for purchases, which creates avenues for dubious people to exploit unsuspecting villagers and dupe them some way or the other.

He also appealed to the district administration, law enforcing agencies, civil society groups as well as its workers to take note of social evils like dice games, cards games, jhandi mundas, etc, that are organised during this time in isolated areas and where poor

villagers end up becoming victims and return back home empty-handed.

While snatching and stealing also become rampant, the Sumi Council also took note of exorbitant rates charged by autos and taxis.

“Business community of Dimapur also should try to be reasonable and not charge extra from the customers during this period,” the statement exhorted. Zhimo also urged elected representatives of Dimapur to put pressure on the department concerned to repair the deplorable road condition of the town before Christmas “and bring some joy in the faces of our suffering public”. “As responsible citizens of Dimapur town, it is the bounden duty of every individual to ensure that peace and tranquility prevails where people can move freely without any fear.

IMPHAL, Nov 6: Manipur chief minister N Biren Monday criticized Congress and other opposition parties for allegedly misleading the people on demonetization and Goods and Service Tax (GST).

“Congress and opposition parties are voicing against demonetization and GST moves of Prime Minister Narendra Modi with false propagandas,” Singh said while addressing the launching function of Yuva Sammelan organized

by Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha at Khundrakpam in Imphal East district.

The Sammelan was organized in support of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s demonetization and GST. People were “solidly standing” with the Narendra Modi government on note ban as it was a war against black money and GST was the best thing which reduced tax burden of the common

people, claimed the chief minister.

Lambasting Congress party, Biren said that in 60 years of Congress rule, the country has been broken into pieces and a huge amount of black money have been deposited in foreign banks. They had hijacked the money sanctioned for implementing welfare schemes of the poor people, he alleged.

BJP-led NDA government at Centre under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi had taken the bold move of demonetization to recover the black money and introduced GST to reduce the tax burden to the common people, he claimed.

In the context of Manipur, the new government is doing the best to accelerate the development pace and strengthen the emotional integrity among the different communities which was put at stake during long rule of the Congress, he said.

Encroachers will be evicted: Ronghang

He further alleged that the state was lacking behind from the other state in all front due to misrule of Congress.

Without directly mentioning the names of the political parties having no MLA in the state Assembly, the chief minister urged those political parties to keep quite. It would be better for the political parties rejected by the people to keep quite.

“BJP is a now the peoples’ mandate. The party has been doing many welfare programmes and was able to bridge the communication gap among people in hills and valley within its short period of ruling,” claimed Singh.

“We are going to continue the works for the upliftment of the state. We will not stop taking up welfare schemes for the poor and downtrodden people of the society,” he said.

Comparing to the 15 years of Congress rule, the

BJP-led coalition government is in nascent stage, however almost all the programmes taken up by the new government were in the initial stage, said Singh.

“Do criticize when we fail to come out with positive results at the appropriate time,” Biren said directing to Congress.

State works minister Th Bishwajit, who also attended the function, said that power sector will be improved in the state and electrification across the state will be completed in the coming days.

Road connectivity was a serious concern of the new government but due to continuous rain, road repairing works were hindered, he said.

However, with the rainy season coming to an end, road improvement works will be taken up on war footing considering the inconveniences caused to the people, Bishwajit added.

Note ban may increase economic inequalities, says Manmohan Singh

New Delhi, Nov 6 (IANS): Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has called demonetisation a “catastrophic economic policy” that may aggravate inequalities and prove to be a “far greater social malaise” in a diverse country like India, and asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to accept the “blunder” and work towards a consensus to rebuild the economy.

“Demonetisation has proved to be a catastrophic economic policy. The damage it has caused has been multiple fold - economic, social, reputational and institutional. Slowing GDP is merely one indicator of the economic damage.

Its impact on the weaker sections of our society and business is far more damaging than any economic indicator can reveal,” he told bloombergquint. com.

The former Prime Minister expressed his concern regarding the loss of jobs in the small and medium enterprises sector following the government’s November 8, 2016 demonetisation decision.

He also emphasised the exacerbating impact that it may have on economic inequality. “One immediate manifestation

Manmohan Singh of the damage has been on jobs. Three-quarters of non-agriculture employment in our country is in the small and medium enterprises sector.

This sector has been hit the hardest due to demonetisation. Therefore, jobs have been lost and new jobs are not being created.

“I also worry about the longer term impact of demonetisation. Headline GDP may well start to show an improvement after the recent lows.

But rising inequality has been a constant threat to our nature of economic development.

Demonetisation may exacerbate such inequalities which can be harder to rectify in the future.

In such a diverse coun-

India visit a turning point: Latvian PM

try such as ours, inequality can prove to be a far greater social malaise than in other homogeneous nations.”

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while announcing the decision on the night of November 8 last year, said his government was spiking 1,000 and 500 rupee notes to curb black money, corruption, counterfiet currency and terror funding.

He claimed later that the move was aimed at reducing cash-based transactions and nudge the economy towards digital payments.

Manmohan Singh, a noted economist, said while these objectives were “laudable pursuits”, he emphasized that the government needed to “get our economic priorities right”.

“It is unclear that these goals of cashless economy will indeed help small enterprises become larger and achieve scale efficiencies. That should be our priority.”

Manmohan Singh was among the first to predict that demonetisation may lead to decline in India’s GDP growth and loss of jobs. Asked if he felt vindicated about the warnings he had sounded,

he said it was not about vindication.

“I strongly feel the time for politicking over demonetisation is over. It is time the Prime Minister graciously acknowledges the blunder and seeks support from all to rebuild our economy.

There come certain moments in a democracy’s history when economics should take precedence over politics.

“It is one such moment now in India. We must put the nation above all politics and strive to seek solutions to our challenges of jobless and unequal economic growth.

These are massive challenges that need creative and consensual policy solutions. So, it is no longer about whether I was right or wrong about the impact of demonetisation.”

Commenting on whether efforts to bring India’s vast infor mal economy into the tax net via demonetisation and the Goods and Services Tax, Manmohan Singh said: “The means is as important as the ends” and the ends could not be achieved “through coercion or threats or raids which can be counterproductive”.

Mumbai, Nov 6 (IANS): Latvian Prime Minister Maris Kucinskis said that his visit would be a turning point in the relationship between the two countries, an official statement said on Monday. He added that Latvia had already started food processing units as a joint venture with Indian partners. “Latvia is focusing on transport and logistics... Building direct link and establishing direct contact through ports will establish close relations between the two countries,” a statement from the Shipping Ministry said quoting the Latvian Prime Minister, whose five-day visit ended on Monday.

His remarks came during his visit to Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) here on Saturday in the second leg of his visit.

JNPT Deputy Chairman Neeraj Bansal briefed the high-level delegation led by Kucinskis about the government’s flagship Sagarmala programme and the opportunities that were expected to emerge “as the ports developed into engines of growth”.

“The delegation was given a detailed tour of the port to observe various port operations and the implementation of various Ease of Doing Business initiatives,” the statement said.

During his visit, Kucinskis also met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and called on President Ram Nath Kovind in Delhi.

Accused in RTI activist’s murder, BJP MP surrenders

Ahmedabad, Nov 6 (IANS): Gujarat BJP MP Dinubhai Boghabhai Solanki surrendered on Monday at a special CBI jail here on the Supreme Courts order after he was accused by the father of slain RTI activist Amit Jethwa of involvement in his son’s murder.

Solanki had been ordered by the apex court to surrender immediately to the authorities in the case filed by Bhikhubhai Jethwa in the Gujarat High Court alleging Solanki was behind the murder of his son Amit Jethwa, an environmenta and RTI activist.

Dinu Solanki had been evading arrest for a while after the apex court order, but on Monday he surrendered. On October 30, the Supreme Court had ordered cancellation of Solanki’s bail application, until the

examination of eight key witnesses had taken place.

Out of the total 195 witnesses in the case, 105 had turned hostile.

Amit Jethwa, an RTI activist, was shot dead on July 20, 2010 right in front of the Ahmedabad High Court.

Despite the government’s prohibitive orders, illegal mining in the Gir region of the Gir-Somnath district was rampant. Jethwa had been seeking information on those under the Right To Information (RTI) Act. In the process, Amit came to confront Solanki, a BJP leader and former MLA from the Kodinar assembly seat, and later MP from the Junagadh Lok Sabha constituency. Solanki had allegedly been involved illegal mining of limestone in the area.

LEGAL OPINION

Dated, Kohima: 3rd November 2017

The core query between the disputing parties posed before me is as to who is the authority to appoint a whip/authority in terms of paragraph 2(b) of the Tenth Schedule to the Constitution of India.

The querist made available to me three legal opinions rendered by Soli J. Sorabjee, Senior Advocate, Supreme Court of India and former Attorney General for India and Fali S. Nariman, Senior Advocate, Supreme Court of India and V. Giri, Senior Advocate, Supreme Court of India.

I have gone through the opinions rendered by the aforesaid Senior Advocates of the Supreme Court.

I respectfully agree with the opinion rendered by Soli J, Sorabjee, Senior Advocate of the Supreme Court. However, I respectfully disagree with the opinions rendered by Fali S. Nariman and V. Giri Senior Advocate of the Supreme Court.

The Constitution (Fifty Second Amendment) Act, 1985, whereby the Tenth Schedule was added to the Constitution, with effect from 1stMarch 1985. In the statement of object and reasons of the bill, inter alia indicated that the evil of political defection has become a matter of national concern and if it was not checked it could very well undermine the very foundation of our democracy and the principles which sustain it. Keeping this view in mind, any authority/institution dealing with the interpretation of the Tenth Schedule to the Constitution of India would do so cautiously so that it would not render the inclusion of the Tenth Schedule to the Constitution otiose and defeat the objects and intent of the Fifty Second Amendment of the Constitution.

Issuing of a whip is a creature of paragraph 2 of the Tenth Schedule since the crux of the matter falls on the interpretation of paragraph 2 of the Schedule.

It is quoted : “2. Disqualification on ground of defection:- (1) Subject to the provisions of [paragraph 4 and 5], a member of a house belonging to any political party shall be disqualified for being a member of the house(a) if he has voluntarily given up his membership of such political party; or (b) if he votes or abstains from voting in such House contrary to any direction issued by the political party to which he belongs or by any person or authority authorized by it in this behalf, without obtaining,. In either case, the prior permission of such political party, person or authority and such voting or abstention has not been condoned by such political party, person or authority within fifteen days from the date of such voting or abstention. ((Emphasis supplied) Explanation.- For the purpose of this sub-paragraph,(a) An elected member of a House shall be deemed to belong to the political party, if any, by which he was set up as a candidate for election as such member.”

For the sake of brevity I am not advised to recite the entire facts leading to the present controversy.

Moreover, the same has been sufficiently delineated by Sorabjee in his legal opinion.

A cursory look at the language (Political Party) employed in paragraph 2(b) of the Tenth Schedule is clear enough to discern the intendment of the legislature. The word Political party repeated three times itself in the paragraph is implicit to mean the Original political Party.

Paragraph 1 (b) and (c) define the Legislature Party and Original Political Party as under:“(b) Legislature party, in relation to a member of a House belonging to any political party in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 2 or paragraph 4, means the group consisting of all the members of that House for the time being belonging to that political party in accordance with the said provision. (b) Original Political party, in relation to a member of a House, means the political party to which he belongs for the purpose of sub-paragraph (1)and of paragraph 2; The term Original Political Party in paragraph 1 (c) of the Schedule is very significant and clearly indicates the intendment of the Parliament that there cannot be another party/splinter/dissident political party, as the case may be, in the same political organization.

Thus, paragraph2(b) of the Schedule recognized and authorized only original political party, who alone is empowered to issue whip/directions.

The term Original Political Parties has been interpreted by the Supreme Court in Rajendra Singh Ran and others vs Swami Prasad Maurya and others [(2007)4 SCC 270], in which I was a member of the bench, meant the party on whose ticket he had got himself elected to the House” The next query is as to who is the appropriate authority to issue whip/directions in terms of paragraph 2 of the Tenth Schedule. It has been brought to my notice that Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu was elected the President of the NPF on 26.11.2014 for a period of five years and his term as the President would expire sometime in 2020. A copy of the NPF Constitution has also been brought to my notice. A perusal, the power of the President has been delineated In Article V of the constitution. Amongst others, Article V(10) in my opinion is relevant for the present purpose. It reads:“All business of the party shall be performed in the name of the President and shall have the extra-ordinary powers to promulgate Ordinance to all Party functionaries including the Legislative Wing at times of exigencies.”

Keeping in view of the aforesaid provision and as the President of the NPF, Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu is the only person competent to issue directions. Whips in terms of paragraph2(b) of the Tenth Schedule.

In the present controversy the undisputed facts is that Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu, President, Naga people’s Front, in exercise of his power under Article V(10) of the party constitution, appointed Mr. Kiyanilie Peseyie, Minister, Social Welfare (as he then was) by an order dated 14th Nov.2014.

(N. BENJAMIN NEWMAI) Commissioner & Secretary Dated Kohima. The 19th July, 2017” It is notice that the notification dated 19th July, 2017 appointing T.R. Zeliang as the Whip was issued by the Legislature Party.

It is not disputed that when the notification of 19th July, 2017 was issued appointing T.R. Zeliang as Whip of the NPF Legislature Party, the appointment of Kiyanilie Peseyie by the President of NPF in exercise of his power under Article V (10) was still holding the field.

The Power to issue Whip/directions under paragraph 2(b) of the Tenth Schedule belongs to the Political Party and not the Legislature Party. In my considerate opinion, therefore, the notification of 19th July, 2017 issued by the Legislature Party is without jurisdiction and invalid.

The notification dated 14th Nov.2014 appointing Kiyanilie Peseyie as Whip is validly made and enforceable.

By now it is a well settled principle of law that any order passed by an authority in exercise of its jurisdiction is a nullity. Therefore, the notification of 19th July, 2017 issued by the Legislature Party is void ab initio and non est.

In view of my afore stated opinion, I, respectfully, agree with the opinion rendered by Soli Sorabjeeto the extend consonant to my opinion and respectfully disagree with the opinion rendered

by Fali Nariman and V. Giri.

In my opinion, therefore, any member of Legislature who voted against the Whip issued by Kiyanilie Peseyie incurred disqualification under paragraph 2 (1)(b) of the Tenth Schedule read with Article 191(2) of the constitution of India.

OPINiON/EDITORIAL

Nagaland Post Vol. XXVII NO. 333 Dimapur, Tuesday, November 7, 2017

A prestige battle

W

hat every political pundit in India is looking keenly today is at the forthcoming Gujarat polls slated for December 9 and 14 after a long delay by the Election Commission which announced the election dates 13 days after the announcement of schedule for Himachal Pradesh. The EC had announced elections for Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat on October 12. The strange logic for not announcing the polling dates for Gujarat when the same announcement for Himachal Pradesh was made on October 12 was that the EC decided to announce them at a later date because of the relief for the Gujarat floods. In fact, the relief works were done and over in the month of August and it was indeed appalling that the EC had to issue a very weak and unacceptable justification. The outcome of the election in Gujarat is most crucial for Modi and Shah because it is the home state from where these two towering duo of the BJP come from. Another successive victory for the BJP in Gujarat seems more likely and a Congress alliance victory less likely. BJP came to power for a brief period after 1995 but the government fell. It was only in 2002 under Modi that the party bounced back to power and since then the party under Modi has retained the state in every successive election. Today the situation in Gujarat has undergone a massive perception but it may not necessarily mean that Modi cannot retain his influence.

The people are not happy with the present chief minister Rupani and his predecessor Anandiben Patel (now governor) but that does not mean they are unhappy with Modi. However, the votes which the BJP used to get in the past is likely to be much less and that has got Modi and Shah worried. Modi himself has been campaigning hard in Gujarat and was given much space so that he could announce a bonanza of over Rs.12,000 crore for Gujarat besides many other projects. These would not have been possible had the EC announced the dates along with the election. Why Modi is worried is because in Gujarat, the election conversation, is riveted around if Hardik Patel can swing the Patidar votes against the BJP and deny Modi’s winning streak. However, there are also facts that the Patidars are not united against any particular party. The Patidars are the most influential caste in Gujarat, but they are divided in their voting pattern. There are four sub-castes of Patidars – Leuva, Kadva, Anjana and Satpanthi.

Leuvas are the more economically well-off Patels, while the Kadvas less so. Traditionally, the Kadvas have voted for the BJP, but thanks to Keshubhai, the Leuvas in Saurashtra did not give as many votes to the BJP in 2012. Although in 2014, both the groups again got together to vote for the BJP. Now, the situation is changing. The well-to-do Leuvas are still with the BJP, but the struggling Kadvas are standing with Hardik Patel for reservation. Congress vicepresident Rahul Gandhi has been attacking Modi in the latter’s own home and has hit the mark on many issues. To counter Rahul, the BJP has called on Hindutva hardliner and UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath to campaign. The safe bet is that Modi would somehow retain Gujarat for the BJP because he knows the voters better than Rahul and also has projected himself as pride of Gujarat.

DailyDevotion Intimate Theology Do you believe this? —John 11:26 Martha believed in the power available to Jesus Christ; she believed that if He had been there He could have healed her brother; she also believed that Jesus had a special intimacy with God, and that whatever He asked of God, God would do. But— she needed a closer personal intimacy with Jesus. Martha’s theology had its fulfillment in the future. But Jesus continued to attract and draw her in until her belief became an intimate possession. It then slowly emerged into a personal inheritance— “Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ…” (John 11:27).

Is the Lord dealing with you in the same way? Is Jesus teaching you to have a personal intimacy with Himself? Allow Him to drive His question home to you— “Do you believe this?” Are you facing an area of doubt in your life? Have you come, like Martha, to a crossroads of overwhelming circumstances where your theology is about to become a very personal belief? This happens only when a personal problem brings the awareness of our personal need.

To believe is to commit. In the area of intellectual learning I commit myself mentally, and reject anything not related to that belief. In the realm of personal belief I commit myself morally to my convictions and refuse to compromise. But in intimate personal belief I commit myself spiritually to Jesus Christ and make a determination to be dominated

by Him alone.

Then, when I stand face to face with Jesus Christ and He says to me, “Do you believe this?” I find that faith is as natural as breathing. And I am staggered when I think how foolish I have been in not trusting Him earlier.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.” ~ Dr. Seuss

I

s the chicken you get in commercial large scale food vendors, in products like sandwiches, chicken? Perhaps not.

Subway is a group that targets health conscious folk, who avoid other fast food. Is it healthy? A recent investigation by CBC Marketplace shows that the chicken used in Subway chicken sandwiches is only 42.8% chicken.

The salad chicken, which they claim as healthy oven roasted chicken, is only 53.6% chicken! What is the rest: Genetically modified cheap soy protein, known to be problematic for health. About 50 ingredients were found in the tested sandwiches with an average of 16 ingredients in the chicken itself.

The Wildlife Forensic DNA Laboratory at Trent University conducted the tests. So called, “chicken” from Subway’s competitors contained 85-90% chicken.

Marinated, seasoned and processed chicken is also a mix. The four other chains tested included Wendy’s, McDonalds, A&W, and Tim Horton’s.

Food scientists say the food chains selling meat use “restructured products”. Industry sources refer to this as pink slime, and pictures of this slime leaked from factory assembly lines are available on the Net from 2010.

Restructured products,

T

including the pink slime variety, are essentially smaller pieces of meat or ground meat. The meat is mixed with additives, chemicals, lots of Monosodium Glutamate, which is neurotoxic, and fillers like soy protein to make it last longer and taste better.

According to Fooducate, chicken paste comes from taking every bit of meat off chicken bones by passing them through a high pressure sieve. The taste is so disgusting that artificial neurotoxic flavours, like MSG and many other additives, are mixed in to make it edible. Then colour is added. Since the slime is full of bacteria it is soaked in ammonia to de-germ it. The slime is then used to make a wide variety of chicken-like products.

W h a t i s t h e way chicken is processed? The treatment is now so sophisticated that what seems like a fresh, plump chicken breast (upto 43% injected water) might be only 51 per cent meat! Much of this ‘plastic’ chicken goes to curry houses, Chinese restaurants and takeaways, often disguised with highly-spiced sauces and colourings.

Grocers, and supermarkets sell sausages, salamis, luncheons meats, nuggets, burgers made of this pink slime and now

Nagaland Post, Dimapur Tuesday, November 7, 2017

At expense on your health technology can even shape out chicken breasts and fillets that are only around 60% chicken. What does the rest comprise of ?

Extenders (corn starch, wheat flour, stale bread for instance), fillers (in low-cost burgers breadcrumbs, cassava, potato, or rice are used as fillers, often in combination with soya bean protein), water, and soluble binders. Look at the net. This is the kind of Ad you will see when companies advertise TVP or textured vegetable protein- “Textured Vegetable Protein is the perfect meat substitute in almost any recipe that calls for ground beef or turkey.” No, it is rarely used by vegetarians – only people making “meat” products. Normally thrown away carcass parts rich in connective tissue, such as pork skin, tendons are also added and so is gelatine, a transparent goo made of melted skin and bones.

The sausage is another highly extended meat product. These sausages

are sold in ‘fresh’ or frozen form and heat treated in restaurants or by the consumer directly at home.

One common composition is approx. 60% animal tissue, 15% water, 25% extenders and fillers. In low-cost formulations the major, or entire, part of lean meat derives from mechanically deboned chicken meat, which contains on average 20% fat, which goes straight to your arteries.

When Leicestershire trading standards received a complaint from a member of the public about the quality of chicken nuggets, they decided to test 21 samples from 17 different shops, including the major supermarkets. In one-third of the samples, the label was misleading about the nugget’s meat content.

One pack of nuggets contained only 16% meat, 30% less than it claimed.

The trading standards officials are unable to identify the brands involved for legal reasons. Instead, they gave a warning to the

worst offender. Subsequent tests recently have shown that the manufacturer has not changed its ways.

Venky’s, an Indian brand which sells processed chicken, has actually made available the meat content of its processed chicken products, The chicken franks are only 70% meat, the chicken lollipops 30%, the meat balls 60 %, the chicken salami 55%, and the murg masala just 30%.

The thing is, once you’ve minced bits of chicken to a pulp, that pulp could be anything from anywhere. Recycled pet food, breasts injected with pig and cattle proteins, banned carcinogenic antibiotics - they’ve all been found by the authorities recently in chicken destined for processing.

The chicken you eat may have bits and pieces of other animals in it, DNA tests specially developed by Sandford, with the public analyst laboratory in Manchester, enabled the English food standards agency to identify traces of pork proteins in samples of Dutch chicken breasts labelled “halal”.

Six months later, Irish authorities made an even more unsettling discovery in chicken: undeclared bovine proteins. Seventeen samples from Dutch processors contained them.

Some manufacturers were

using a new technique - injecting so-called hydrolysed proteins. These are proteins extracted at high temperatures, or by chemical hydrolysis, from old animals or parts of animals which are of no use for food, such as skin, feathers, hide, bone and ligaments, and rather like cosmetic collagen implants, they make the flesh swell up and retain liquid.

Take the case where McDonald’s sold its customers “chicken” that was over a year passed expiry.

Shanghai Husi Food was guilty of selling chicken as much as one year past their expiry dates to McDonald’s and to Yum Brands, which owns KFC and Pizza Hut. An investigative report showed Shanghai Husi workers “picking up food from the floor and throwing it into processing machines and “discarded” McNuggets were reprocessed until they passed inspection.

This is what happens when the meat industry has decided to make even larger profits at the expense of your health. Meat is bad enough normally, but this is the worst thing you could eat.

Post-mortem Public Services Delivery Strife rigorously not unclean poll

he ‘Model Public Service Law’ was one of the items included in the President’s address to Parliament on the 4th June 2009. The law is to cover functionaries providing important social services like education, health, rural development, etc., and commit them to their duties and for that purpose, legislative Department has attempted a tentative Bill titled the Public Services(Protection and regulation) Bill. Enacted by the Parliament, the Public Services(Protection and Regulation) Act, 2009 shall come into force on such date as the Central Government/State Government may, by notification, appoint and different dates may be appointed for different provisions of this Act. This Act is to secure right to all citizens in the matter of public services provided by public authorities, facilitate transparency in the delivery of such services and to protect their interests by specifying Public Service Performance Standards, establish a Central/ State Authority for effective management of such public services and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto. The common framework of the state legislation includes, granting of “right to public services”, which are to be provided to the public by the designated official within the stipulated time frame. The public services which are granted as a right are generally notified through Gazette notification. Some of the commonly provided public services, including issuing caste , birth, marriage and domicile certificates, electric connections, voter’s card, ration cards, copies of land records, etc. within the fixed time frame.

On failure to provide the service by the designated officer, the aggrieved person can approach the First Appellate Authority/Second appellate Authority. It can order the public servant to provide the needed service to the applicant and can impose penalty on the designated officer for deficiency of service without any reasonable cause.

The applicant may be compensated out of the penalty imposed on the officer.

Every Citizen is entitled to hasslefree public services and redresses of his grievances. Accordingly, the Right to Public Services Act represents the commitment of the particular state towards standard, quality and time frame of service delivery, grievances redressal mechanism, transparency and accountability.

Right to Public Services legislation in India comprises statutory laws which guarantee time-bound delivery of various public services rendered to citizens and provides mechanism for punishing the errant public servant if they are is deficient in providing the stipulated services. Right to Service legislation ensures delivery of time bound services to the public. If the concerned officer fails to provide the service in time, he will have to pay

a fine. Thus, it is aimed to reduce corruption among the government officials and to increase transparency and public accountability.

Currently, public officials and civil servants are considered as one of the troubled sections of our society due to their slow and painful process in performing their duties. As a result, the common man, who is entitled to avail hassle-free public services and information thereof, has to face a lot of problems and pay bribes to avail the needed public services. Therefore, the buzz against corruption is now matched by Right to services related initiatives by several governments to clean up the system.

Madhya Pradesh became the first state in India to enact Right to Service Act on 18th August 2010.

Several other states like Bihar, Delhi, Punjab, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Chhattisgarh, J&K, Odisha, Assam, Gujarat, West Bengal, and Goa have introduced similar legislations for effectuating the right to service to their citizen. In Bihar, services include police verification report for passports(seven days); post-mortem report(three days); caste certificate(within a fortnight), education, road transport, driving license, banking services, kisan credit card, ration card, FIR enquiry, health, food and civil supplies, social welfare and power, etc. The faults in electricity connection will be set right within four hours. Now, the people will no longer need to run around offices and grease the palms of employees to get their work done after this act. The Govt. also intends to constitute a state public service delivery commission to achieve the objectives of the act. Thus, this act makes government officials accountable and help the government weed out corruption from the grassroots level to the top.

The Rajasthan government has implemented the Rajasthan Guarantee Delivery of Public Services Act, 2011 to ensure effective time-bound delivery of 108 services of 15 major government departments with a provision of cash penalty for the offenders(Rs.250/- to Rs.500/- per day on undue delay). The Nagaland State Government is yet to enact the Right to Public Services Act/law “which is found to be very much application to the state and to clean up the system to ensure smooth delivery of services to the people and crack down on erring officials”. The Nagaland Voluntary Consumers’ Organisation(NVCO) had launched the Public Services Delivery campaign during the 2016 Vigilance Awareness Week with an appeal to the State Government to introduce similar legislation for effective public services delivery to its citizen in the state and would also curb corruption in the state government functionaries.

(From previous issue) These are the questions every sensible or any citizens alike should be putting forth against ourselves and our representatives; if that is why they resolved to participate as a candidate in the elections, to begin with. These are necessitated along with growth in every aspect of development, so that we could heave a sigh of relief as opposed to our present deplorable infrastructural conditions, whenever we commute in and out from our dwellings, and get home..

Another measure to enhance the probability for a people-oriented government could be to coordinate among the section of public and participate in the polls with a singular aspiration and goal. This calls for the responsible; sensible; youth and the educated section of the public to shoulder responsibility together – as our future for a progressive collective growth relies on ourselves, and none can make it possible for us, other than ourselves. It is us the public who are well aware of our grievances and not a veteran regional politician. This would require of the sensible and responsible citizens from as much constituency, to organize among themselves in their respective constituency;

educate the people about the urgency and bi-product of a clean poll; and put up a candidate—with no agenda of individuality, but one that merely represents the collective aspiration of the people of the region (like every other politician is supposed to), which in the later part will embody the collective aspiration of the whole.

This movement should be well in harmony resonating to calm and clean poll.

Such measure only becomes essential for the deprived and unconditional subjects we have been, after about fifty years of having being declared as a democratic state – this is legitimate both constitutionally and democratically.

In case of some candidates, resorting to monetary and undemocratic means to accumulate and establish emphasis on voters – it has to be ascertained that the people should not feel obligated to exchange his/ her vote just because the candidate decided to corrupt democracy. If the powerful people with their money can play foul targeting the desperateness of the people despite reiterating again and time, we the suppressed lot can also make it right by accepting their persistent misuse of money and casting our vote on any candidate who professes to abide by

true democratic norms and serve the people and the state by such.

We have been deferred from progression by many factors and elements at the cost of events that transpired during our quest for a sustainable nation, and although uncertainty looms over our future and we are ignorant as ever about the contingency that would portray our threshold, as a late race of human species embarking on a clean democratic setup – we have the outmost privilege and right to preserve our democracy—for today and the Nagas of tomorrow.

And since the representatives of the people would be under an independent banner with no means to address the people for recognition, if multiple candidates arise – in order to clear out misinterpretation, we can correspond among ourselves and formally announce the list of representatives, in print or social media, during the allotted and convenient time. The responsibility we would assume today would present itself as a legacy and an inheritance for our future generations to embody fortitude and rapprochement with the world and forth.

Appeal to kmc over garbage control in Kohima Sir,

With due respect, I would like to bring to your notice a simple suggestion in the midst of all your tireless efforts in maintaining the municipal affairs. As you can see, Kohima is a very congested region with most places being already stuffed since a very long time. People hardly have a square foot to spare for putting up an important post, and so the question of creating even a small dumping site seems impossible, for most colonies. Let’s not talk about diseases and epidemics through unattended garbage and sewage here. They’re too obvious. What I would want to urge you with is an appeal to initiate certain activities in Kohima that would encourage people to keep their surroundings clean and also make them feel that it is easier to dump garbage where KMC would want them to, than where they do today. For that, I would like to take Dimapur as the best example. Dimapur is comparatively a more spacious place than Kohima. But, from what I have heard of, the authority there had initiated a scheme where colonies compete to be tidier, and their efforts are given clear acknowledgement- as the cleanest colonies are awarded. I’m not asking you to copy the same activity. I ask you to copy the same motive. Like in Dimapur, there should be a garbage truck that comes every two-three days to collect waste materials from each house and dump them in an appropriate site. But again, it is for you to decide on how the schemes or activities should work in Kohima. What I, and perhaps most people in Kohima, would only want to see is a garbage-free town. Even the smallest efforts matter. Initiate the process, show us the way. We are ready to put our hands in and help.

Cong, left parties attacks BJP on ‘Paradise Papers’ leak

NEW DELHI, NOV 6 (IANS): The Congress on Monday dared Prime Minister Narendra Modi to initiate action against the suspected Indian tax evaders who feature in the “Paradise Papers” leak, including one of his ministers, and put the entire facts before the Supreme Court bench overseeing black money investigations. The Congress also demanded the resignation of Minister Jayant Sinha.

“Will the Prime Minister show the courage of conviction to hand over this entire information to the bench of Supreme Court that is looking at action against black money holders? Will the ‘Compromised Bureau of Investigation’ (CBI) and ED (Enforcement Directorate) take action?”

Congress Spokesman Randeep Surjewala said.

The “Paradise Papers” are a set of 13.4 million leaked financial documents from law firm Appleby on investments of major multi-national corporations (MNCs) and that of well known individuals in India and abroad in tax havens.

The German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung obtained the documents and subsequently shared them with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ).

The Indian Express newspaper carried out the investigation in the case of 714 Indian links, which include Minister of State for Civil Aviation Jayant Sinha and BJP Rajya Sabha MP R.K. Sinha.

Randeep Surjewala

The leaked papers allegedly reveal that Jayant Sinha was a director in a US company D. Light Design that has a subsidiary of the same name in Cayman Islands. This subsidiary raised a loan of US$3 million. A loan agreement dated December 31, 2012 was signed with Jayant Sinha as a signatory and a director.

Surjewala said that Jayant Sinha concealed this information of being a director of D. Light Design in his declaration to the Election Commission as also to the Lok Sabha Secretariat and the Prime Minister’s Office.

He said that Jayant Sinha continued as a director of D. Light Design even after being elected as an MP in May 2014 and “continued to receive money and shares” of D. Light Design during this period.

He further said that another company called ‘SIS International Holding Ltd’ (SIHL) is incorporated in the offshore tax haven of British Virgin Islands and owns 39,99,999 shares of SAPHL. Meanwhile, left parties also on Monday said the NDA government must order a probe into the

Paradise Papers if it wants people to believe it is serious about tackling corruption.

Former CPM general secretary Prakash Karat said the Paradise Papers pointed how corruption and generation of black money has become systemic in India. “ T h i s s h ow s h ow misplaced and irrelevant demonetisation has been.

The exposure of the Paradise papers should lead the Modi government to admit its total failure in tackling black money and tax evasion in the last one year since demonetisation was announced,” Karat said.

Following the Paradise Paper leaks, which name over 700 Indians, BJP MPs among them, CPI secretary D Raja said, “PM Modi, in his rallies, said Congress is synonymous with corruption. But now that people from his own party have been named, what does he have to say? He must speak and clear the air.”

Reiterating that the government must order a probe and bring all guilty to book, the CPI leader also said that his party had demanded the same when the Panama Papers were leaked, but that the Centre scuttled the issue. “Even Saudi Arabia is cracking down on corruption. But we, despite being a democracy, do nothing. Modi wants to celebrate November 8 as anti-black money day. Let him celebrate the Paradise Papers,” Raja said.

Modi meets DMK chief Karunanidhi; Chennai abuzz

PM Narendra Modi meets M Karunanidhi in Chennai.

C H E N NA I , N OV 6 (AGENCIES): Prime Minister Narendra Modi met DMK chief Karunanidhi at the latter’s Gopalpuram residence in Chennai on Monday morning, setting off speculation ahead of 2019 Lok Sabha elections. “ Va n a k k a m , S i r ” , Modi greeted Karunanidhi as he sat near the 93-year-old and held his hand. Accompanied by Union Ministers Nirmala Sitharaman and Pon Radhakrishnan, Modi was with the DMK leader for about 10 minutes before winding up his visit to the city during which he took part in the 75th anniversary celebrations of Tamil newspaper Dina Thanthi.

Karunanidhi’s son MK Stalin, who was on a visit to Sharjah, cut short the trip and returned to receive Modi at Karunanidhi’s residence. Kanimozhi, Karunanidhi’s daughter, and Rajathi, Karunanidhi’s second wife, and DMK general secretary Durai Murugan were also present.

The Prime Minister was briefed about Karunanidhi’s health by his doctor.

The MLA said it was shame for the Governor to award the Nagas on attaining 50 years of statehood with an “unconstitutional government” and questioned whether he wanted to become the champion of corruption.

Yitachu asked Acharya to come out openly, list out the constitutional provisions, democratic practices and under what circumstances he had acted and said the Nagas would accept if his justification was under the law.

He said though NITI Aayog had decided to make India corruptionfree by 2022, in Nagaland its members (Governor and Chief Minister) were still indulging in corruption, adding that it would be no surprise if corruption charges were levelled against the Governor too.

Reacting to the BJP’s statement that the party was not desperate to form the government and that the current crisis was an internal matter of NPF, and therefore needed to be resolved internally, Yitachu said if that was BJP’s stand why it gave letter of support to a suspended MLA. He asked the BJP to stop fooling people and come out openly, instead of making excuses, and admit its mistake.

Further taking a jibe on NDPP, Yitachu said MECHANIZED CLEANING OF COACHES AT NAHARLAGUN E-Tender Notice No.: MECH09-2017-18 Dated: 23-10-2017.

everyone knew that it was the same group of people who staged general convention “under their interim president-ship of Rio” and was now with NDPP. He said their intention was to destroy the NPF, the history of Nagas and start afresh from 2017. “People cherish history and legacy, but in Nagaland it was reverse,” he added.

Yi t a c h u s a i d t h e NDPP and NPF (Rio) were like two sides of the same coin and those who staged general convention together had now started to accuse one another as “worst government” while their own sons are in the government as parliamentary secretaries or advisors.

Wondering how the NDPP could be so nasty about their own sons and daughters, he said Nagas should not expect good leaders who speak ill against their own children.

In his address, farmer’s wing president Lanukaba said those asking for solution to the vexed Naga issue before Christmas were the same persons who had defied the Nagas’ call for a solution in 1998.

Lanukaba said in 1998, those Congress leaders who were listed as “antiNagas” were the ones now seeking solution.

Lanukaba said they need to apologise to the Nagas for going against

their call on seeking solution to the Naga political issue. He said they were seeking solution while are putting up candidates for election. Stating the move was aimed at only getting sympathy from NPGs for the next election, he added that NPGs and Nagas should understand this.

On NDPP, he said the new party had the same old people, the authors of “Bedrock of Naga Society”.

On NLA Speaker, Lanukaba said elders were losing confidence on young leaders because of a young leader like the Speaker for his inaction. He appealed the youth to come out and prove that the young leaders could be better than the Speaker.

Secretary COB Toniho Sheqi said the Governor should revoke his action lest it left a bad precedence in the State and the country.

Stating that the current government was “nameless, shameless and brainless”, he added that in a democracy majority alone would not work as law had to back the majority.

He said it was unfortunate that Zeliang was “brainlessly” following Rio without realising the latter’s game trying to proclaim himself as the “first leader”, in case of a solution.

has met Karunanidhi at his residence.

Tamil Nadu BJP president, Tamilisai Soundarajan told reporters that Modi invited Karunanidhi to his home in Delhi. Karunanidhi reciprocated with a smile, she said.

Karunanidhi has been off active politics for about a year now since age-related ailments have kept him home-bound.

The 10-minute meeting comes amid political turmoil in the state where the EPSOPS faction of the ruling AIADMK is struggling to retain majority in the face of TTV Dinakaran’s defiance against stepping aside.

The BJP had helped broker peace between the E Palaniswami and O Panneerselvam camps earlier this year, but the combine has not yet been able to retrieve the party’s ‘two-leaves’ symbol which was frozen by the Election Commission.

The PM was in Chennai to attend the Platinum Jubilee celebrations of Tamil daily Dina Thanthi, where he hailed the media as the fourth pillar of democracy.

KPU said the present Chunlikha came into being only in the year 1961 when four villages -- Nsunyu, Kandinu, Sishunu and Ehunnu -- initiated to establishment of a private ME school.

Subsequently, KPU said with the joint effort of the four villages various development like GHS, PHC etc took place. Since

KPU through its press & media cell also reacted to the statement of the Kithagha Public Organization (KPO) particularly the purported allegation that Kandi group demanded construction of RD Block office at Tsonsa village.

KPU clarified that it had at no point in time demand the shifting of RD Block office to Tsonsa village.

As per the instructions of the government, the union maintained that the office should immediately start its construction as the contract was already awarded to M/S JK & sons of Nsunyu (Kithagha) on November 11, 2016.

It also pointed out that the government has already appointed Grade -IV post to the land owners namely Ninenya Semy, wife of Tekhenu Semy, and John Magh, son of Rev. Khankhu Magh.

As such, KPU said there was no question of shifting the office complex to Tsonsa or GHS compound.

The organisation also stated that the popular desires and decisions of the majority groups must also be taken into account with regard and respect.

New Delhi, Nov 6 (PTI): Gold came under pressure from a rising dollar with a fall of Rs 115 to Rs 30,135 per 10 grams today, which was compounded by tepid demand from local jewellers.

Silver too lost sheen, losing Rs 450 to Rs 40,050 per kg, following reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers.

survival.

The analysis suggests that 2017 is likely to come in 0.47C warmer than the 1981-2010 average.

This is slightly down on 2016 when the El Niño weather phenomenon saw temperatures that were 0.56C above the average.

According to the WMO, this year vies with 2015 to be the second or third warmest mark yet recorded.

“The past three years have all been in the top three years in terms of temperature records. This is part of a long-term warming trend,” said WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas.

“We have witnessed extraordinary weather, including temperatures topping 50C in Asia, recordbreaking hurricanes in rapid succession in the Caribbean and Atlantic, (and) reaching as far as Ireland, devastating monsoon flooding affecting

many millions of people and a relentless drought in East Africa.

“Many of these events - and detailed scientific studies will determine exactly how many - bear the telltale sign of climate change caused by increased greenhouse gas concentrations from human activities,” he said.

Scientists will have to do attribution studies to clearly link specific events from 2017 to rising temperatures. But they believe the fingerprints of climate change are to be seen in events such as tropical cyclones, where the warmer seas can transfer more heat to the gathering storms and increased sea levels can make flooding more damaging. The Accumulated Cyclone Energy Index, which measures the intensity and duration of these events, showed its highest ever monthly values in September this year.

Saudi freezes accounts of detained princes

Riyadh, Nov 6 (IANS): Saudi authorities have stated that they will be freezing the accounts of those detained on corruption charges, reported Al Arabiya.

The authorities said that no “preferential treatment” will be given and the cases will be handled as per procedure.

The Saudi Centre for International Communication stated that money in the frozen accounts which appears to be linked to corruption cases will be reimbursed to the Saudi state’s General Treasury.

Prominent princes

Saudi King Salman and businessmen were detained in a probe by a new anti-corruption body on Sunday, only hours after its formation. Saudi King

Salman, by royal decree, announced the creation of a new anti-corruption committee chaired by his son Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Saturday. Al Arabiya said the body had detained 11 princes, four current ministers and tens of former ministers.

The crown prince is spearheading an ambitious economic reform programme that aims to draw more foreign and private sector investment into the kingdom, which is the world’s top oil exporter and the most powerful country in the Gulf Arab region.

A Spanish warship, Cantabria, docked there carrying 375 migrants and the dead women, following several rescues.

Twenty-three of the dead women had been on a rubber boat with 64 other people.

Abu Bakr Baghdadi fled Iraq in Trump: Japan can disable N. Korean missiles ‘yellow taxi’ to avoid suspicion B ag h da d, N ov 6 (IANS): Islamic State chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has reportedly fled from Iraq to Syria in a yellow taxi to avoid drawing suspicion.

An intelligence source claimed the IS chief was hiding in Rawa, northwestern Iraq, when troops entered Qaim some 50 miles away near the Syrian border, the Daily Mail reported.

Al-Baghdadi felt his presence in Rawa “threatened his life”, so he scampered over the border to Deir ez-Zor in a vehicle synonymous with the western world of New York City.

The source was quoted by the Iraqi News as saying: “After Iraqi troops invaded Qaim, Baghdadi was aware that his presence in Rawa threatens his life. In a yellow taxi, Baghdadi fled Iraq and headed to Syria. He is believed to have settled in Deir ez-Zor.” “The IS leader insisted on taking a yellow cab in order not to be a source for doubts.

He urged the remaining IS

fighters in Qaim to carry on fighting the Iraqi troops, but the source said they ‘let him down and escaped in their personal cars to Syria.”

The IS released a new audio recording in September purporting to be of Al-Baghdadi. The 46minute audio recording was published by the Al-Furqan news organisation, which is affiliated with the IS, and came after Russia claimed to have killed Baghdadi in an airstrike on Raqqa in June.

General Secretary President NMVSU NMVSU Arose Shikaho K

On Monday, while answering questions at a press conference, Trump said Abe was “going to purchase massive amounts of military equipment” from the US. Referencing North Korea’s missiles, he said Abe could “shoot them out of the sky” when he completed the purchase, which Trump said would provide jobs to Americans as well as “safety for Japan”.

Abe said he was considering such a deal, adding that Japan had to “qualitatively and quantitatively” enhance its defence capability, given the “very tough”

North Korea situation.

He stressed that missile defence was based on “legal co-operation” between Japan and the US, and as for shooting down missiles, “if necessary of course we can do that”.

It is not clear whether a military deal has been signed during Trump’s trip, but the two countries are close military allies with the US maintaining several military bases in Japan.

In September Trump had tweeted that he would allow the sale of high-end military equipment to Japan and South Korea.

Globally, temperatures in 2017 look set to be the third highest on record.

Washington, Nov 6 (IANS): German automaker BMW has issued two recalls involving more than one million vehicles that are at the risk of catching fire even when they are turned off.

The recalls include models produced from 2006 to 2011.

The first recall covers more than 672,000 cars, including several BMW 3 Series models with wiring and electrical conductors in the climate control system, which controls air flow for heating and air conditioning and are vulnerable to overheating, Xinhua news agency reported.

The second larger recall covers various models with six cylinder engines that were manufactured from 2007 to 2011. In these vehicles, the heater used to keep positive crankcase ventilation from freezing bears the risk of short-circuit, which could lead to fire.

Bonn, Nov 6 (AGENCIES): The year 2017 is “very likely” to be in the top three warmest years on record, according to provisional figures from the World Meteorological Organization.

The WMO says it will likely be the hottest year in the absence of the El Niño phenomenon.

The scientists argue that the long-term trend of warming driven by human activities continues unabated.

They say many of the “extraordinary” weather events seen this year bear the hallmarks of climate change.

On the opening day of this year’s key UN climate talks, researchers from the WMO have presented their annual State of the Global Climate report.

It follows hot on the heels of their greenhouse gases study from last week which found that concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere were the highest on record.

While the new study only covers January to September, the WMO says the average global temperature was 1.1C above the preindustrial figure.

This is getting dangerously close to the 1.5 degrees threshold that many island states feel temperatures must be kept under to ensure their

Real Madrid roll over Las Palmas to calm crisis talk

Isco skips past Las Palmas’ Vicente Gomez during a La Liga match on Sunday.

MADRID, Nov 6 (Agencies): Real Madrid quietened crisis talk after backto-back defeats as Marco Asensio added to his collection of wonder strikes in a 3-0 victory over Las Palmas at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday.

Victor y cuts thirdplaced Real’s deficit on Barcelona at the top of La Liga back to eight points.

However, it was another off night for Madrid’s strikers as Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema were held scoreless as Casemiro,

Isco and 21-year-old Asensio provided the killer touch.

Benzema has been fiercely criticised for his role as Real lost to promoted Girona last weekend and at Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League on Wednesday. And the level of discontent with the Frenchman was in evidence as he was jeered by the home faithful inside the first five minutes when he failed to slot past Raul Lizoain after being played clean through on goal by Ronaldo.

zema have only one La Liga goal each to their name so far this season and it was the World Player of the Year who had Real’s next three efforts as he blasted into the side-netting, curled a shot just wide and then placed a header from close range too close to Lizoain.

Madrid had to wait until four minutes before halftime to break the deadlock when Casemiro grabbed Real’s first headed goal of the season from a corner.

A fifth straight league defeat since he took charge

leaves Las Palmas coach and former Valencia boss Pako Ayestaran’s job already in doubt with a two-week international break to come.

The visitors had a penalty shout early in the second-half, but on-loan Atletico Madrid winger Vitolo went to ground too easily despite a slight pull of his shirt by Casemiro.

A booking would have ruled Casemiro out of the Madrid derby against Atletico in two weeks’ time and he was quickly replaced after Asensio secured the three points in stunning fashion.

Asensio has made a habit of netting in spectacular fashion in his first 18 months at Madrid and pounced on a loose ball 30 yards from goal to rifle a shot that rose all the way on its trajectory into the top corner.

Ronaldo fired inches over twice more, but, whilst his luck remained out in front of goal, he did provide an enticing cross from which Isco slotted home at the back post for Madrid’s third.

Elsewhere, Villarreal’s unbeaten league run since Javier Calleja took charge in September continued as Nicola Sansone came off the bench to grab both goals in a 2-0 win over Malaga to move the Yellow Submarine up to fifth.

West Ham United sack manager Bilic

LONDON, Nov 6 (Agencies): West Ham United have sacked manager Slaven Bilic after they dropped into the relegation zone following Saturday’s 4-1 home defeat by Liverpool, the Premier League club said on Monday.

The Croatian replaced Sam Allardyce in June, 2015 and led West Ham to a seventh-place finish in his first season. He also oversaw their move to the London Stadium but has won just two out of 11 league games in this campaign.

“West Ham United can confirm that Slaven Bilic has today left his position with the club,” West Ham said in a statement.

The club said they “be-

lieve a change is now necessary in order for the club to move forward positively and in line with their ambition”.

“The club’s search for a new manager to take West Ham United forward is underway and an announcement regarding Bilic’s successor is expected to be made over the coming days,” the statement added.

Former Everton, Manchester United and Sunderland manager David Moyes, who is currently out of work, has been strongly linked with the position.

Moyes told BeInSport on Sunday that he was willing to take on the challenge of keeping the Hammers in the Premier League.

Morata heads Chelsea past Man Utd

Alvaro Morata celebrates with team-mates Tiemoue Bakayoko, Cesar Azpilicueta and Davide Zappacosta after scoring.

Lo n d o n, N ov 6 (Agencies): Alvaro Morata’s first goal since September earned Chelsea a deserved victory over Manchester United in an entertaining encounter at Stamford Bridge.

As Antonio Conte’s side had taken full control of the contest, the Spaniard was completely unmarked in the box and he expertly

headed home Cesar Azpilicueta’s cross 10 minutes after the break.

The Blues could have sealed the three points on a couple of occasions but David De Gea saved well from the excellent Eden Hazard and Morata.

The opening stages of the game were even with it a much more open affair than many had expected,

Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia pushing high up on the flanks and lots of space in midfield.

The hosts could have got an early opener when Phil Jones spectacularly finished into this own net but Morata was harshly adjudged to have fouled the Utd defender.

WOKHA, NOV 6 (NPN): As par t of the Tokhu Emong 2017 celebrations, various indigenous games were held on Monday here at Wokha. In the morning, “Khoro Zotoro Yungta” (Wooden go-kart race) was held at Wokha Town Baptist Church (WTBC) road

with district transport officer Wokha, Myamo Jami as special guest.

Speaking on the occasion, Jami thanked the organisers for providing platform to the Lotha youngsters through the event and for promoting traditional games.

The special guest also encouraged the partici-

pants to keep the customs and tradition alive.

He later declared the games open. Altogether five persons took part in the race.

B a s k e t we av i n g, cloth weaving, yodeling, wooden kart pushing race and greased bamboo pole climbing marked the day’s competition.

Marcus Rashford headed over from close range.As the first half progressed the Chelsea midfield became dominant, with man-of-thematch Cesc Fabregas and Hazard pulling the strings.

Morata’s goal was just rewards for their control of the play and they really should have wrapped things up as Utd threw bodies forward but still struggled to create any real openings.

Chelsea dropped deep as the game entered the final 10 minutes and invited Utd forward. As a result the visitors began to exert some pressure and they came close to an equaliser, substitute Marouane Fellaini’s deflected shot was well-saved by Thibaut Courtois.

Rashford came close twice, first his 20-yard strike whistled just wide of the post while his free-kick took a nick off a Chelsea player and fizzed just over Courtois’ crossbar.

But it was all desperate stuff from Utd and Chelsea held on for a win they fully merited.
