JCPI launches 18 hours anti-CAB bandh NEFIP to file petition before the UNDRIP

Staff Reporter/Correspondent

DIMAPUR/ KOHIMA, NOV 19 (NPN): Normal life was paralysed across many parts of the State since 6 p.m. on Tuesday following an 18-hour shutdown called by Joint Committee for Prevention of Illegal Immigrants (JCPI) in protest against the Centre’s move to place the controversial Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) in Winter Session of Parliament.

The development follows North East Forum for Indigenous People (NEFIP) announcing resumption of stir against the CAB and authorising federating State bodies to decide the mode of agitation.

Meanwhile, NEFIP and JCPI have clarified that the bandh was for 18 hours, while advising people to stay indoors during the period to express their solidarity with the people in other North-eastern States against CAB. This follows different

CSOs support JCPI bandh call D I M A P U R , N OV 1 9 (NPN): Various civil society organisations (CSOs) have extended their support to the 18-hour bandh call given by the North East Forum for Indigenous People (NEFIP) and Joint Committee for Prevention of Illegal Immigrants (JCPI) against the Centre’s move to reintroduce the controversial Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) in the ongoing winter session of the parliament.

NTC: Nagaland Tribes Council (NTC) has extended its fullest support to the “voices of the Indigenous people” being raised in Nagaland under the banner of JCPI and NEFIP. In a press release, NTC president Toniho Yepthomi general secretary Nribemo Ngullie appealed to the Indigenous people of Nagaland, tribe hohos, various CSOs, youth and student bodies to stand in solidarity and extend all possible support to the movement.

NTC stated that the contentious CAB, if passed in the parliament, would enable people of minority Communities from the neighbouring countries to settle in India without any restriction of their identity.

It said the proposed Bill was “purely communal in

versions in print and social media about the bandh duration. In a joint statement, NEFIP vice-president Theja Therieh, JCPI convener Ghokheto Chophy and JCPI secretary Tia Lonchar also appealed to all institutions and establishments to reorganise their schedules to allow peaceful observance of the bandh.

However, they explained that the appeal was purely a call to everyone’s conscience to reject the “monstrous” CAB, adding few hours of sacrifice would go a long way to determine the destiny of “our future generations”. They advised travellers to display their

respective identity cards prominently In case of any emergency.

KOHIMA: In Kohima, normal life came to a grinding halt as shops and business establishments downed their shutters and vehicles went off the road in response to the 18-hour bandh called by JCPI from 6 pm on Tuesday.

Speaking to Nagaland Post, NEFIP vice-president Theja Therieh said the forum had informed the district and police administration about the bandh, and assured that it would be observed in a peaceful manner. He also admitted the failure on the part of NEFIP

from GoI will not suffice,” he added.

Admitting that the stir against CAB could affect the student community as many had exams around this time of the year, Therieh said the movement against CAB in Nagaland was being carried out as per NEFIP’s instruction. He pointed out that there was already a strong movement against the Bill in States like Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya and Mizoram.

Therieh claimed that when he spoke to Lok Sabha MP, Tokheho Yepthomi about the Bill, the former had informed him that he had not yet seen the draft Bill.

NDPP lambasts NPF for habitual lies, deceit D I M A P U R , N OV 1 9 (NPN): The ruling NDPP lambasted opposition NPF for their “habitual lies and deceit” and asserted that the PDA government stood firm in fulfilling its commitments to the people and would not allow “false and fabricated” allegations of a “frustrated” opposition party derail its promises.

In a statement, NDPP also declared that there was no question of the council of ministers resigning due to “immature” statements of NPF, adding the ruling coalition was mandated by the people of the State and

continue to serve the people with sincerity and commitment. Unlike the unstable and weak leadership during the last four years of DAN government where each day was faced with uncertainty and rife with suspicion, the PDA government under the dynamic leaderships of chief minister Neiphiu Rio and deputy chief minister Y Patton stood strong and united with a clear vision for Nagaland, the statement claimed.

Reacting to allegations of NPF, NDPP said to term the present dispensation “rudderless and paralysed”

only proved that the opposition party was speaking about its own leadership and perhaps accepted its failure to provide a stable government during its tenure.

The ruling party said the state of affairs under the NPF-led DAN government from 2014 to 2018 would go down in the annals of history of Nagaland as the darkest period. The people were denied any form of governance because of the constant tussle for power within NPF, and it was also during this period that the State witnessed the worst law and order situation as

people rose up against their government as the leadership at that time refused to hear their voice, it added.

According to NDPP, with such an infamous legacy, NPF should be the last one to be attacking the PDA government and accusing it of being negligent, rudderless and paralysed, but rather play a supporting and proactive role as a responsible opposition party, especially at this crucial juncture when all Nagas were anxiously awaiting the inking of the solution to the Naga political Issue.

NEW DELHI, NOV 19 (AGENCIES): At least three hill states of the North East, which have inner line permit (ILP) system, are likely to be exempted from the purview of the controversial Citizenship (Amendment) Bill 2016, The Assam Tribune report stated.

This was conveyed

by Union Home Minister Amit Shah to a delegation of senior leaders of BJP from the region, when they called on him to express their concern over the CAB, sources said.

A senior BJP MP, who was part of the delegation of BJP-ruled states of the North East barring Assam, said they gave a feedback to Union Home Minister about the agitated mood among the people over the Bill.

“We were assured that the CAB will not be applicable in the states of Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland and Mizoram which have inner line permit system,” he said. However, the issue of CAB did not figure in the meeting of the BAC of Lok Sabha held on Sunday.

Pradesh will be duly consulted before the final settlement of the decades-old Naga insurgency problem. Union Minister of State for Home G Kishan Reddy told the Lok Sabha that there has been considerable progress in the ongoing Naga peace talks and almost all the Naga underground groups are engaged with the Central government in the peace process. “All stakeholders, including the states of Assam, Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh, will be duly consulted before any settlement is arrived at with the Naga groups and their concerns taken into consideration,” he said, replying to a written question.

DIMAPUR, NOV 19 (NPN): Department of power has informed that there would be power shutdown in three districts under Mokokchung transmission division namely Mon, Longleng and also Changtongya and Tuli area under Mokokchung district on November 21, 2019 from 6am to 10am and 2pm to 5pm. In a press release, SDO (Trans) Mokokchung transmission division stated that shutdown was being necessitated in view of conversion of single tension disc insulator to double tension polymer insulator at 66KV Mokokchung-Tuli Transmission line.

NSF issues directive

DIMAPUR, NOV 19 (NPN): In view of the 18-hour Nagaland bandh, the Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) has directed all the federating units and sub-ordinate bodies to “tie-up with the ‘shut-down’ organisers” to ensure that the burden of the shutdown was not passed on to students not only while commuting to and from their examination centres, but also while availing stationery required for their examinations. In a press release, NSF president Ninoto Awomi and education & statistical secretary Kegwayhun Tep also affirmed the federation’s “total resentment” against the proposed CAB and assured that it would leave no stone unturned to ensure that the “proposed bill does not see the light of the day.”

Kohima police issue traffic advisory

Microlite Aircraft Discussions on to address Don’t allow next Doklam inducted into NCC concerns about CAB: Conrad in Arunachal, says BJP MP Correspondent

NEW DELHI, NOV 19 (PTI): Please don’t allow the next Doklam in Arunachal Pradesh as China has encroached more than 50 km of land of the state, BJP member Tapir Gao claimed in Lok Sabha on Tuesday.

Whenever the president, prime minister, defence minister or home minister visits the state, objections are raised by China, he said raising the issue during Zero Hour.

He said China raised objections by conducting an official press conference when Defence Minister Rajnath Singh visited Tawang area of the state on November 14, 2019.

“I request the House and media to voice protest against this,” he said.

“If a repeat of Doklam takes place, it will happen in Arunachal Pradesh because China has encroached 50-60 km of the state,” he claimed.

Troops of India and China were locked in a 73-

Tapir Gao day stand- off in Doklam near Sikkim last year after the Indian side stopped the building of a road in the disputed area by the Chinese Army.

Indian troops intervened to stop the road as it posed a security risk to Chicken Neck, the narrow corridor connecting India with its north-eastern states.

The standoff ended on August 28, 2017 following a mutual agreement under which China stopped the construction of the road and India withdrew its troops.

This is not the first time that Gao has made

the claim.

Earlier in September this year the MP had claimed that the Chinese Army intruded into Arunachal Pradesh’s remote Anjaw district and constructed a bridge over a stream.

However, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju had later insisted that there was absolute peace on the IndoChina border along his home state of Arunachal Pradesh.

“There is absolutely no problem. There is peace along the border,” he had said.

Explaining the circumstances, Rijiju had said, “When there is no demarcation of boundary, so if their (Chinese) army comes in, we say intrusion. When our forces go that side, they call it intrusion.”

India and China share a nearly 4,000-km border, which is not clearly demarcated, leading to incursions by the two sides into each other’s territory.

IMPHAL, Nov 19: The National Cadet Corps (NCC) Group, Imphal inducted the Microlite Aircraft (Virus SW-80) to facilitate flight training for its cadets.

The induction ceremony was held today at Bir Tikendrajit International Airport with chief minister N Biren Singh as chief guest of the function.

During the function, the chief minister said that Microlite Aircraft (Virus SW-80) is a powered driven single propeller aircraft which would provide the students of Manipur NCC cadets maximum flying exposure.

He thanked the NCC for taking such initiative for the NCC cadets of the state. Stressing on the various initiatives and programs of NCC, Singh stated that NCC inculcate the values of discipline, punctuality, correct work ethos and selfconfidence among the young children of the state.

“Such values would help in transforming our children into leaders of the nation tomorrow, he added.

SHILLONG, NOV 19 (PTI): A day after protests were held in the north eastern states against the proposed Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma on Tuesday said discussions are taking place to address concerns of the people about the legislation.

He said the state government is looking for a “positive response” from the Centre to address the issues raised by the people.

“Right now, there is a lot of discussions and consultations taking place.

We have been asked about the issues and how these can be addressed,” Conrad, told PTI. Sangma had met Union Home Minister Amit Shah and urged the Centre to withhold the CAB in its current form.

“We are looking for a positive response (from the Centre). Let us see if our concerns and issues are addressed in time,” he said.

Last year, the state government had passed a resolution to oppose the

CAB in its current form, he said, adding there is “no need for another resolution against the CAB”.

The bill is proposed to be introduced in the current winter session of Parliament, which began on Monday.

Khasi Students Union, an influential students’ body in the state, held a sit-in near the third secretariat here on Monday protesting against the contentious bill, which, it said, will have a negative impact on the people of the entire region.

A group of anti-CAB protesters launched a stay off the road protest from 7 pm on Monday till 6 am on Tuesday.

The North East Students Organisation (NESO), an umbrella organisation of students unions, had also submitted a memorandum to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Shah against CAB through the governors of the north eastern states.

“We are in touch with the stakeholders. I do not see any reason for protests,” Sangma said.

Protestors, MANPAC leaders picked up as anti-CAB shutdown hits Manipur Correspondent

IMPHAL, Nov 19: Police in Manipur picked up seven anti-CAB protestors including MANPAC convener as the 18-hour total shutdowncall severely hit normal life in the state on Tuesday.

A m o n g t h e s eve n picked up by the police, four leaders of Manipur People Against Citizenship (Amendment) Bill (MANPAC) including its convener Yumnamcha Dilipkumar were picked up.

The MANPAC leaders were co-convener L Jadu, members Y Krishnadas and O Ratan.

Three other picked by the police were women vendors imposing the total shutdown on the streets in the capital city.

The trio were among a group of women vendors of iconic all-women market who reportedly indulge in foiling the street vendors form vending their wares in the morning defying

the total shutdown that was commenced from last midnight.

Few street vendors were seen vending their wares on the streets outside the market places of the capital city where a large number of police, state security and Central security forces personnel were deployed.

They were dispersed by the group of women who scolded the street vendors despite the presence of the security forces. City police later took the three to the police station.

MANPAC issued the 18-hour total shutdown in protest against the Centre’s move to re-introduce the contentious Citizenship (Amendment) Bill (CAB) during the winter session of the Parliament that commenced from Monday.

The shutdown brought life to a grinding halt as it dealt a severe blow to state government’s effort to thwart the shutdown af-

fecting normal life.

In a move to thwart the shutdown, state government issued an order directing all its employees to attend offices while instructing all educational institutions including colleges and schools to remain open.

Even as government offices were open, offices located in the outskirts of the capital city functioned with thin attendance. Schools and colleges were opened but no class conducted as no students turned up.

Despite the presence of large number of police and security forces, financial institutions including banks did not functioned.

Even ATM booths remained closed for the day.

In short the total shutdown ended at 6pm brought normal life to a grinding

halt.

All kinds of vehicles stayed off the roads. Only a few private vehicles were seen plying on the streets in Imphal.

The strike forced almost all the shops and business establishments to pull down their shutters not only in the city but also in other town and district headquarters across the valley districts of the state.

Protestors took to the streets in their respective areas and imposed the total shutdown by blocking the roads.

While imposing the total shutdown, the protestors chanted various anti-CAB slogans and demanded scrapping of Centre’s plan to re-introduce the same in the ongoing winter session of the Parliament.

At the same time, the

protestors also shouted slogans demanding disclosure of the ‘agreed points’ of the Naga peace negotiation while cautioning the Centre if state’s interests and territory was compromised while settling the Naga political issue.

At some places, police and security forces dispersed protestors to ensure smooth vehicular movement.

On the other hand, leaders and members of the CPI Manipur State Council staged a sit-inprotest in front of its office in Imphal’s Irawat Bhavan on Naga peace talks and CAB. While talking to reporters at the protest site, NAGALAND

CPI state secretary L Sotinkumar alleged that fear of losing his chief minister’s seat, N Biren Singh said that CAB will in no way affect Manipur.

JNU protest: Police register two FIRs

NEW DELHI, NOV 19 (PTI): The Delhi Police lodged two FIRs on Tuesday in connection with the protest by Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) students over a hostel fee hike, a senior police official said.

One FIR was registered at the Kishangarh police station, while another was lodged at the Lodhi Colony police station, he added.

According to Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Atul Kumar Thakur, a case under IPC sections 186 (obstructing public servant in discharge of public functions), 353 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty), 332 (voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty), 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant) was registered at the Lodhi Colony police station regarding Monday’s incident at Aurobindo Marg.

IPC sections 147 (punishment for rioting), 148 (rioting, armed with deadly weapon), 149 (every member of unlawful assembly

One FIR was registered at the Kishangarh police station, while another was lodged at the Lodhi Colony police station. (File)

guilty of offence committ­ed in prosecution of common object), 151 (knowingly joining or continuing in assembly of five or more persons after it has been commanded to disperse), 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) and section 3 of the Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act were also added to the FIR, Thakur said.

There was no immediate reaction from the JNU Students’ Union (JNUSU).

Hundreds of JNU students rocked the national capital on Monday, bringing several parts of the city to a halt. The students took out a protest march opposing the recent fee hike, against which an agitation has been going on for over three weeks.

During their clash with the police, the students alleged that they were batoncharged by the men in uniform. However, top police officials denied using force against the students.

According to the police, nearly 30 police personnel and 15 students were injured during the eight-hour protest, in which thousands of students from different universities across the national capital took part.

There was a heavy deployment of police and paramilitary personnel outside the main gate of the JNU campus, even before the march commenced.

Water cannons and PCR vans were also stationed outside.

Before the protest began, the Human Resource Development (HRD) Ministry set up a three-member committee to recommend ways to restore the normal functioning of the university and initiate a dialogue with the students and the administration.

The protesters took out the march around noon, broke the first set of barricades at the main gate of the campus and proceeded towards Baba Gangnath Marg, where another set of barricades awaited them.

The police detained about 100 protestors, including JNUSU president Aishe Ghosh, secretary Satish Chandra Yadav and former JNUSU president N Sai Balaji.

The students were ultimately stopped outside the Safdarjung Tomb, where, they alleged, the police baton-charged them, an allegation denied by the men in uniform. On Saturday, an FIR was registered against unidentified persons over an incident of “defacement” of the JNU’s administration block.

NEW DELHI, NOV 19 (IANS): Defence Minister Rajnath Singh was briefed about the ground situation of the Siachen Glacier tragedy by Army Chief General Bipin Rawat on Tuesday.

Sources said, Singh, who is on a tour of Singapore, had called General Rawat on the telephone to know about the tragedy.

Six persons, including four Army soldiers and two civilian porters, have been killed in Siachen Glacier after being hit by an avalanche on Monday afternoon.

On Tuesday, Singh tweeted, “Deeply pained by the demise of soldiers and porters due to avalanche in Siachen. I salute their courage and service to the nation. My heartfelt condolences to their families.”

Army sources said work is underway to transport the dead bodies of the deceased soldiers to their hometowns. According to the officials, eight personnel were trapped in an avalanche at around 3 p.m. on Monday and the Avalanche Rescue Teams from nearby

posts were rushed to the location to pull them out.

The rescuers managed to extricate all the eight personnel from under the debris and seven critically injured persons, accompanied by medical teams providing critical care, were evacuated by helicopters to the nearest Military Hospital, where all life-saving resuscitative measures were instituted.

Despite best efforts, six persons - four soldiers and two civilian porters - succumbed to extreme hypothermia, officials said.

SABARIMALA, NOV 19 (IANS): The Kerala Police on Tuesday did not allow a 12-year-old girl from Pondicherry to pray at famed Lord Ayappa shrine here at the Sabarimala temple.

Despite cries and wails from the young girl and pleadings from the father, the police told them “rules and traditions of the temple do not allow entry of women in the age group 10 to 50”.

The girl who came along with her father and other relatives was stopped by the police at the Pamba base camp. Such incidents continue even after the Su-

preme Court last week did not stay its September 28, 2018, verdict allowing women of all ages to visit the shrine. The girl was left in the company of women police officials, while her father and the others proceeded to the temple located at the top of the hill.

officially opened for pilgrims on Sunday.

Till now seven women have been denied permission to pray at the shrine as all of them fell in the earlier “banned” age group.

Though the apex court on Thursday gave a 3:2 verdict referring the Sabarimala review pleas to a larger bench, it maintained that it

has not stayed its September 28, 2018 order allowing women of all ages to enter the temple. But this time the Kerala government has made its position clear that it would not make any effort for the entry of women into the temple to pray.

Last year, the police provided security to women who faced stiff resistance

from activists of right-wing outfits.

Travancore Devasom Board (the body that looks after the management of most temples in the southern districts of the state) President N.Vasu, who recently took over as the new president said there is a lot of ambiguity in the latest apex court verdict.

Proxy war in JNU

hat the Jawaharlal Nehru University(JNU) students are agitating for is against the hike in hostel fee, service charges and refundable one-time security money though they have been reviewed and reconsidered by the university committee. The low hostel fee charged under JNU reflects how the patronage extended by the government over decades is today being understood as a constitutional “right” of the students and an obligation of the government. The hostel fee for a single room was Rs. 20 per month which was raised to Rs 600 but after review it was re-fixed at Rs 300 per month.

Similarly, Rs.10 was the rent for a double room which was raised to Rs. 300 but later revised at Rs.150 per month. The refundable one-time mess security fee was hiked to Rs.12,000 but later revised at Rs.5,500 annually. One issue that the students have rightly protested against is the introduction of ‘service fee’ of Rs.1700 per month. The protests by JNU students also highlights several aspects of the extra-curricular activities of students. The students complain that the new fee structure would require each student to cough out anywhere between Rs.6000 to Rs.7000 per month after fee hikes. The logic behind the objections to fee hikes is that the JNU was essentially meant to accommodate the under privileged sections of society into university education. They believe that the objective is being fulfilled each year when several hundreds of students from economically less privileged get admitted and later go on to reach high academic or professional levels. It may be pertinent to remind that JNU was established with an aim to be a university of differences that would ensure nurturing of noble ideas and also to provide accessibility to students from weaker sections of society. The JNU Bill was passed in Lok Sabha on November 16, 1966 and the JNU Act came into force on April 22, 1969.

The environment in JNU has been dominated by leftof-centre politics where Marxism was quite openly flaunted as the badgering ram against the capitalistic ruling elites. It used to be an ‘in thing” among students of JNU during the 70s to be left leaning. Due to this left-leaning political hype, JNU has been rightly or wrongly damned as being a crucible for Marxist or Naxalite ideologies especially by the right wingers in the BJP. To be fair to history, JNU was able to provide a national character to its education by developing a points system where students from across the nation were given the same level playing field. This has led to thousands of students from economically weaker sections in being admitted to the JNU and compensated for their disadvantage to be competitive with the rest JNU has given many of these disadvantaged students the opportunity of their lives and who went on to become well known bureaucrats, journalists, artists, translators,writers, activists, professors, vice chancellors, heads of various important institutions and alsopoliticians. JNU should not be turned into an ideological battlefield between the left and right.

The contributions of JNU to India is immense beyond those who have made it to the highest rung. It will be only right if the underprivileged sections are given dues since it is lies at the core of what JNU is.

DailyDevotion “When He Has Come”

When He has come, He will convict the world of sin… —John 16:8

Very few of us know anything about conviction of sin. We know the experience of being disturbed because we have done wrong things. But conviction of sin by the Holy Spirit blots out every relationship on earth and makes us aware of only one— “Against You, You only, have I sinned…”

(Psalm 51:4). When a person is convicted of sin in this way, he knows with every bit of his conscience that God would not dare to forgive him. If God did forgive him, then this person would have a stronger sense of justice than God. God does forgive, but it cost the breaking of His heart with grief in the death of Christ to enable Him to do so. The great miracle of the grace of God is that He forgives sin, and it is the death of Jesus Christ alone that enables the divine nature to forgive and to remain true to itself in doing so. It is shallow nonsense to say that God forgives us because He is love. Once we have been convicted of sin, we will never say this again. The love of God means Calvary— nothing less! The love of God is spelled out on the Cross and nowhere else. The only basis for which God can forgive me is the Cross of Christ.

It is there that His conscience is satisfied.

Forgiveness doesn’t merely mean that I am saved from hell and have been made ready for heaven (no one would accept forgiveness on that level). Forgiveness means that I am forgiven into a newly created relationship which identifies me with God in Christ. The miracle of redemption is that God turns me, the unholy one, into the standard of Himself, the Holy One. He does this by putting into me a new nature, the nature of Jesus Christ.

Post-mortem

The chance to replenish Nagaland

T

he saddest history of the political journey of the Nagas is the indelible chapter of the story of the discord and the subsequent disintegration of the Naga National Movement (NNM) into factions followed by fratricidal conflict that has to be clubbed with the Naga political history. The conflict had terrible negative impact on numerous Naga families, badly dented on the fraternal brotherhoods and degraded the political status of the Nagas to a mere light weight and namesake aspiration in the eye of the adversaries in short. When the Naga national leaders with their respective groups preferred to remain as hard nuts and refused to become magnanimous for the sake of the Naga unity, the NNM was driven towards the bottomless pit.

Yet, the Living God perhaps remembers what the pioneers of the NNM under NNC who dedicated the movement for the glory of God some 7 decades ago with the prayers “Let Thy Kingdom come to Nagaland” and “Nagaland for Christ”. Despite our best efforts invested for self destruction in modern time under the NNM, God prevailed on time whereby once again the Nagas are now saved from being left in the lurch and from being awarded with the trophy of total shame as earned.

No matter how legitimate our historical and political rights may be, we, the present generation, ourselves noxiously downgraded the hard earned status to rueful condition. Had the Nagas remained in unity under a single political umbrella like the erstwhile NNC/FGN, the invitation of the GOI, therefore, to the Nagas for political negotiation would

not have been necessarily a surprise, and yet knowing our weaknesses due to divisions, such invitation, as I consider it, to be a great favour just because of the steadfast love of the Living God for the Nagas.

The ceasefire, the political negotiations between the GOI and the Nagas and the subsequent agreements to have solution are but the legal recognition of the political status of the Nagas

by GOI. In lieu of neglect, abandonment and the resultant disgrace and shame, the logical conclusion of recognition is imminent.

From here the Nagas are going to have a new era under which the different political arrangements are expected in the Naga areas in NE India. The commitments made on 31.10.2019 by the negotiators to have solution is a benchmark as it goes down as the cairn in the annals of the Naga history. The Nagas could not become sovereign as per the Framework Agreement and the Preamble and so also the contiguous Naga areas could not be amalgamated are the realities. Beside the expected new dispensations based on agreed terms, the Nagas have to survive under the status quo arrangements territorially speaking. Whatever it may be, none can blame the Naga negotiators for not being able to fetch the principle aspirations at this time.

All the Nagas are equally responsible and we will get only what we deserve.

As I understood the factors that compelled us to go through so much labour pain prior to principle agreements to have political solution on 31.10.2019 was because of the conflict of the two philosophies, the status quo vrs the liberation of Nagaland. By the solution, the State of Nagaland

is to be virtually liberated from the menace of excess governance. Nagaland has been reeling under not less than 10 Governments (the State Govt. and the 9 Naga National Govts) for decades. Feeding 10 govts with the budget of a State Govt. during the last more than 2 odd decades is responsible for the most expensive cost of living in Nagaland. Many, many enterprising local entrepreneurs were nipped in the bud. The wealthy local businessmen dared not investing their money in Nagaland and they rather opted for other States for such investments. The State Govt. of Nagaland literally remained under siege as many of the politicians and the bureaucrats hobnobbed with many unscrupulous elements whereby the public funds are siphoned away in broad daylight robberies. The rules of Govt. and its system of governance were deposited under lock and key, whereas the miss governance was let loose at the behest of the senseless and selfish authorities. Such misrule in such magnitude has become acceptable in the Naga Christian society and we remained no more allergic to injustices meted out to the common man.

The few people making the right noises against the prevailing system were just pebbles thrown in the pond and they are considered to be the thorn in the flesh of the exploiters. The Opposition party in NLA has become lame duck at this crucial period which is expected to make the loudest voices. And so on so forth. Whatever said and done, the onslaught of the haywire neo system of governance for years has its immense toll on the poorer section of the citizens in Nagaland.

In order to allow the solution to land, the citizens have paved the way for solution which is about to come hopefully without much procrastination. As for the State of Nagaland, I have no knowledge about how the solution would be made to land, and yet it is historically imperative. Every rational individual knows that the desirous genuine peace can be born solely by the expected solution.

And under that truly peaceful atmosphere, Nagaland can be replenished as the refurbishment of Nagaland is indispensable.

Firstly, the number of governments in Nagaland will henceforth be drastically reduced from 10 to 1.

The reduction of the number of governments will become the greatest austerity measure ever taken in Nagaland. After much extended spell of exploitation of the gullible public in Nagaland with threat and intimidation laced with unabated multiple taxations, the people of Nagaland will have one Govt. with one tax. The menace of taxation which has been the virus that strangulates the economy of Nagaland will be erased. The legal taxes under the single Govt. will become the basis for economic growth. I am hopeful that this liberation will be the booster for the growth of local entrepreneurs, etc.

Secondly, Nagaland will have freedom from threats and intimidation from people with sophisticated arms as the gun culture will hopefully be replaced with Isaiah 11:6-9.

For the first time after a long gap, the people will have sense of emancipation from the culture of bondage. When there is no more fear of threat of being killed with gun, the

people will begin to regain the sense of equality.

Under such environment justice is expected to return to Nagaland. In such environment the people of Nagaland will have sense of ownership of Nagaland and the bona fide citizens will become the masters of the State of Nagaland.

Thirdly, the rule of law must be welcomed by the people of Nagaland by releasing the law of the land from its bondage for decades. The system of governance that had disappeared into oblivion from administrative sphere has to be reinstated. For so long the laws of the land are kept for abuse by those in authority in hobnob with unscrupulous elements. Under the existing system, the honest and the law abiding citizens are normally and usually considered to be the weaklings and are made to be the victims of the system whereas those who dare to be the law breakers and the criminals become the superior citizens and champions be it in State governance or in NNM. Whereas, the opportunity has come for God fearing and right thinking section of people to become vibrant and take the leading role in every sphere without which the refurbishing of Nagaland will be just a whitewash.

Fourthly, the golden opportunity will come for the citizens of Nagaland to stitch the broken pieces of our society together in unity. As much as the NNPGs are fragmented into shreds, the civil bodies and platforms are equally torn into tiny islands filled with isms and egos. The people of Nagaland have to realize that in this generation, there will never be a better opportunity than post solution period for mending and restructuring the soci-

ety. Every sensible citizen of Nagaland irrespective of profession may have to realize that the challenge so posed to each individual is that as much calibre we have in fighting amongst ourselves that much ability we have to unite for rebuilding. How long shall we nurture the theoretical rhetoric fashion for future and for posterity? The time has come for the present generation to prove our worth by walking the talk.

Fifthly, whatever said and done, only the Living God alone can make things happened. When the Nagas had fratricidal killings, the NGOs and the mediators had the fire fight to stop the conflict and the Churches fervently prayed for normalcy. I believe that it’s worth for the believers to sincerely pray for the transformation to arrive in Nagaland. The chance is here for the citizens of the State to reform Nagaland into a new Nagaland.

Nevertheless, to have the New Nagaland will not be that simple and easy as I can talk. As I mentioned the conflict of the two philosophies, I can imagine and anticipate that there will be Sanballats, Tobiahs and Geshems of the Arab who vehemently opposed the project of Jerusalem’s rebuilding under the leadership of Nehemiah. In our contemporary Nagaland politics, the Sanballats, the Tobiahs and the Geshems are rich, powerful and dynamic. It is therefore doubtful as to whether the people of Nagaland will be allowed to reform Nagaland by this powerful team. The only option for the public to rebuild Nagaland under the given opportunity is to adopt the Nehemiah’s strategy which is no other than supplication.

An uphill task for the disabled persons Climate change to hit health

M

r. James Sangwa (name changed), an educated young man has to think several times before going to government offices, Sunday church service or to attend a seminar/ functions and hospitals. A visit to the market is out of the question. Mr. James is orthopaedically disabled and for people like him most places in the state of Nagaland are simply inaccessible. For him going to public places in a wheel chair is a nightmare and a visit to the toilet is a herculean task. Accessibility is of paramount importance to disabled persons for ensuring that their basic rights are not violated. Right of communicating and co-mingling are inherently given upon them by the Indian constitution. But how does a blind person negotiate the traffic if there are no auditory signals? Or for that matter, how do orthopaedically handicapped persons using wheel chairs enter public buildings which do not have ramps?

Even today there exist no special provisions for the social development of disabled persons. Earlier, such persons were regarded as unproductive and useless eaters in society. The constitution has provided for social security of the disabled in Article 41 of the constitution.

Today, of course, there is the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act of 2016 which promise a barrier-free environment for the disabled and the elderly, yet there seems to be little sensitivity to their needs. It is the law of the land but what are we doing about it? How many places have been made accessible to the disabled in the last four years. The question is really not of resources but of awareness and sensitivity of the concerned authorities. PWD Engineers and the architecture Engineers need to be sensitised on the need to design disabled friendly buildings.

In the past handicapped persons did not have any common platform to voice their grievances from. Today, they are not alone. Government as well as various NGOS has taken up their cause.

The RPWD Act of 2016 covers a wide range of rights for them-from prevention of disabilities and protection of rights to providing medical care, education, training, employment and rehabilitation of disabled persons. It is also true that laws grow with society, its economic development, scientific progress and attitude of the people.

However, it is more important to lay emphasis on ability rather than disability, independence over dependence and integration over segregation. Further, think of the transport system in Nagaland. For a disabled person to board Nagaland State Transport Buses is a big no. Think of the railway station in Dimapur. It is a gigantic task for a disabled person to travel by train from Dimapur railway station. Dimapur airport is the only station having infrastructure and provision for disabled persons to travel. It is disabled friendly. These are just physical barriers. Much more difficult to negotiate are the attitudinal barriers which the disabled come across in their daily lives. To make the People with Disability Act workable a host of enforcement actions need to be done. First, we need an enforcement agency especially those concerning

placement of disabled children in educational institutions where a minimum of 3% of seats be kept reserved for handicapped children. Further, we need school for blind children, deaf and dumb school, school for spastic, autism, etc.

The Act is an enabling law which helps the disabled to get jobs. There are many disabled young persons who are considered employable.

But 99% of the disabled persons are unemployed.

Insensitivity and lack of recognition of their abilities are the biggest impediment in the improvement of their lot. How can they, then live with dignity when they are financially dependent on others for their smallest needs?

A large percentage of the disabled can become as independent as any other human being can be, provided they get opportunities, proper guidance, training and a warm and caring atmosphere. The training programme should be formulated keeping their abilities in mind.

As such the learner should be allowed some lee way in the learning process. What happens when a toddler starts learning to stand up and walk? He falls but the parents encourage him and after months of stumbling, he manages to do it. Why cannot the disabled be taught in the same manner with love and care? Apart from government services they too can be gainfully self employed and can even become good entrepreneurs. Government too can come forward by setting up of the State Handicapped Finance Development Corporation for giving soft loans to the disabled. A screening committee of experts may finalise the cases depending on the abilities and the categories of disabilities.

Overcoming the insensitivity towards the disabled is such a gigantic task and hence the Act has provided us teeth to enforce the existing laws much more authoritatively. Of course, there are others who think they can get away with anything and therefore, they need to be told a home truth or two. Additionally, District Medical Board needs to be strengthened to certify disability and a committee to identify jobs for handicapped persons according to their skills.

State government has designated Session Court in each district as Special Court for redressal of offences committed against disabled persons.

Public Prosecutors are designated as Special Prosecutors to conduct cases.

A lot has been done, but a lot more has yet to be done. Transformation of social practices takes time. Those working for the disabled will need patience, perseverance and also need to become more organised and multiply their efficacy through intelligent lobbying and educating the people. A negative mindset exists in our society towards the disabled. This was shaped over several centuries. It would be unrealistic to expect people to change all that overnight.

The creation of awareness about the disabled, their needs, difficulties and aspirations must be an uninterrupted process and must continue till it fulfills its purpose. For this the NGOS and the government have to work jointly and apolitically to voice and establish the rights of the disabled.

of Indian children hard

hildren in India will be particularly vulnerable to the ill effects of climate change such as worsening air quality, higher food prices and rise in infectious diseases, warns a new study published in the journal The Lancet.

Climatic suitability for the Vibrio bacteria that cause cholera is rising three per cent a year in India since the early 1980s, said the report.

“With its huge population and high rates of healthcare inequality, poverty, and malnutrition, few countries are likely to suffer from the health effects of climate change as much as India,” said study co-author Poornima Prabhakaran from the Public Health Foundation of India.

“Diarrhoeal infections, a major cause of child mortality, will spread into new areas, whilst deadly heatwaves, similar to the one in 2015 that killed thousands of people in India, could soon become the norm,” Prabhakaran said.

Through adolescence and into adulthood, a child born today will be breathing more toxic air, driven by the fossil fuels and made worse by rising temperatures.

This is especially damaging to young people as their lungs are still developing, so polluted air takes a great toll, contributing to reduced lung function, worsening asthma, and increasing the risk of heart attacks and stroke.

Later in life, a child born today will face increased risk from severe floods, prolonged droughts, and wildfires.

Most countries have experienced an increase in people exposed to wildfires since 2001-2004 with a financial toll per person 48 times larger than flooding.

India alone saw an increase of more than 21 million exposures, and China around 17 million, resulting in direct deaths and respiratory illness as well as loss of homes, said the report.

“Over the past two decades, the Government of India has launched many initiatives and programmes to address a variety of diseases and risk factors. But this report shows that the public health gains achieved over the past 50 years could soon be reversed by the changing climate,” Prabhakaran said.

The “Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change” is a yearly analysis tracking progress across 41 key indicators, demonstrating what action to meet Paris Agreement targets -- or business as usual -- means for human health.

The project is a collaboration between 120 experts from 35 institutions including the World Health Organisation (WHO), World Bank, University College London, and Tsinghua University.

For the world to meet its UN climate goals and protect the health of the next generation, the energy landscape will have to change drastically, the report warns.

Nothing short of a 7.4 per cent year-on-year cut in fossil CO2 emissions from 2019 to 2050 will limit global warming to the more ambitious goal of 1.5 degree Celsius, said the report.

If the world follows a business-as-usual pathway, with high carbon emissions and climate change continuing at the current rate, a child born today will face a world on average over 4 degree Celsius warmer by their 71st birthday, threatening their health at every stage of their lives.

Reader’s Post Sir,

Let them be happy

There is need for recreational centre for senior citizens where they can spend some quality time like reading, having fellowship, catching up with other seniors and also doing some gardening work together. Such a centre is required in all district headquarters and seniors can meet up once a week or the centre can be kept open throughout the week except on Sunday. Many elderly people are unable to go personally to visit old friends but perhaps the centre can become a place for everyone to meet. Children can drop their elderly parents for a few hours of the day and pick them up again. It would add a lot more meaning in the lives of our senior citizens who are priceless for the society. Let them be happy.

BJP trying to divide Bengal on NRC, CAB: CM Mamata

Mamata Banerjee to minorities in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan after an aggregate period of residence or service of a government in India for “not less than six years”.

The Chief Minister said that people should not worry about NRC or CAB, as neither will become a reality in West Bengal.

“There will neither be CAB, nor NRC. So don’t worry. Despite that, I must tell you that all of you are Indian citizens. There is not a single person who is not a citizen -- irrespective of whether you are a Rajbanshi, Santhal, Hindu or Muslim, Bengali or Gokha.

“Whoever lives in Bengal, has a ration card, who

NDPP lambasts NPF for...

(From p-1) The ruling party also accused NPF of training its guns on the office of governor in its attempts to earn brownie points, while lacking any vision for the State and Naga people. NDPP said it expected NPF, as a respectable political party, to keep the office of governor out of party politics. Stating that it was leaving to the people of Nagaland to judge the wisdom and maturity of NPF leadership, the ruling party observed that NPF, instead of playing the role of a positive opposition, seemed to have lost direction, adding the latter’s lack of a roadmap for the people once again stood exposed.

run their own business or do some other work, or whose children study in schools or whoever receives benefits of government schemes, you are all citizens,” she said.

In an apparent reference to the BJP, Banerjee said ‘some people’ were trying to break the age-old amity between communities.

“At some places, they are saying only Rajbanshis would be beneficiaries of CAB, not Bengalis. In this way, they are trying to drive a wedge between Rajbanshis and Bengalis.

“At some other places, they are trying to divide Bengalis who came as refugees, and others who have been living here for generations.

Similarly, attempts are being made to divide Hindus and Muslims, and Muslims and Christians,” the Chief Minister said.

Describing the entire matter as a ‘big farce’, she urged people not to believe in such propaganda. “Unity in diversity is a salient feature of West Bengal. If anybody tries to spread misinformation, don’t panic,” she said.

Raj, Mnp only states to have JCPI launches 18 hours anti-CAB bandh passed bills to check lynching (From p-1)

NEW DELHI, NOV 19 (PTI): Only Rajasthan and Manipur have passed bills on action to be taken against those involved in lynching but the legislations are yet to get the President’s consent, the Lok Sabha was informed on Tuesday.

Union minister of state for home Nityananda Rai said the Centre, following a Supreme Court directive, has issued two advisories to state governments to check incidents of lynching.

“In pursuance to the Hon’ble Supreme Court’s judgment on July 17, 2018, two advisories -- on July 23, 2018, and September 25, 2018, were issued to the state governments and union territories administrations for taking measures to curb incidents of mob lynching in the country,” he said replying to a written question.

On whether a number of states have enacted laws, making lynching a non-bailable offence and recommending life imprisonment for those involved in such violence, the minister said as per information available, two bills on the subject passed by state leg-

islatures of Manipur and Rajasthan are reserved by the governor for consideration of the President have been received.

“The bills so received are examined in consultation with the concerned central ministries,” he said.

Rai said the government through audio-visual media has also generated public awareness to curb the menace of lynching.

The government has also sensitised service providers to take steps to check the propagation of false news and rumours having potential to incite mob violence and lynching. In its order, the Supreme Court had said the state governments shall designate a senior police officer, not below the rank of Superintendent of Police, as nodal officer in each district.

The state gover nments have to constitute a special task force so as to procure intelligence reports about the people who are likely to commit such crimes or who are involved in spreading hate speeches, provocative statements and fake news, it said.

Therieh said if an MP was not even aware when the Bill was going to be introduced on the floor of the House, “then we know how they represent us”, adding it was frustrating.

He said all the 24 members of Lok Sabha from the Northeast could have jointly protested against the Bill, then only Parliament would have listened and the region would have been exempted from its purview or necessary clauses could have been inserted.

Alleging that there were more than four lakh immigrants in Nagaland, Therieh said if CAB was implemented, then the immigrants would be able to prove their identity and the State would become very vulnerable.

He declared that even if the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha passed CAB, people of the North East would not allow its implementation in the region.

DIMAPUR: On the other hand, as dusk descended, Dimapur started to wear a deserted look as shops downed their shutters and people were seen scurrying to their homes Talking to Nagaland

Post over phone, Ghokheto Chophy said the committee had urged all citizens of the State to extend full cooperation to the bandh and understand that it was not for personal interest, but in the interest of the people as the CAB issue should be taken seriously.

He said JCPI had also asked the citizens to bear with the inconveniences thus caused by suspending all normal activities and engagements to give a collective message to the Centre to withdraw the controversial Bill.

Later, when contacted by this reporter, many individuals spoke out against CAB. “I am against CAB because how can noncitizens be allowed into our place. According to the Bill, if a person lives in one place for more than six years he/she will be given citizenship. That means people (outsiders) who are living in Nagaland for more than six years will be regularised as indigenous people of the State of Nagaland, which is not acceptable and possible. Where is land and what about our customary rights?” remarked one businessman.

A professor opined

that CAB would not bring in any positive change to the people of Nagaland, and rather it would endanger their identity.

Applauding the initiative taken up by JCPI, another person said: “We should strongly oppose CAB for it will hamper our birthright and we will become aliens in our own State, if the Bill is passed”.

A student leader warned that if the Bill was in Parliament, it would open the floodgates of illegal immigrants.

“Though the Nagaland government has asserted that Article 371A will act as a shield, when our neighbouring States get affected, then definitively we too will be affected as we don’t have effective mechanism to handle illegal immigrants,” he added.

NEFIP to file petition before UNDRIP: Asserting that India was a signatory to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Pe o p l e s ( U N D R I P ) , Therieh said NEFIP was in the process of filing petition to UNDRIP to convey that the indigenous people India were under threat.

NTC said the north east states were “already flooded by illegal immigrants particularly from Bangladesh.” It said that further influx by means of the Bill or regularisation of “these illegal residents” would be a direct threat to the region’s land, survival of its indigenous people, identity, and culture.” NTC asserted that “the result would be only adverse impact for generations together.” Further, NTC maintained that the whole north east region were “fully aware” of the impending danger of accommodating additional population migration in the region when the land itself was limited. It said that the whole region was boiling now “not for the sake of agitation but the issue itself is detrimental to the future existence of the Indigenous people on one hand, and due to lackadaisical attitude of the GOI to understand the genuine desire of the region on the other.”

LH: Extending its support, the Lotha Hoho (LH) has requested the Wokha District Chamber of Commerce & Industry (WDCCI) to give directions to shop owners to down shutters during the bandh period. In a press release, LH general secretary Abenthung Ngullie said the decision was taken at an emergency meeting held at Wokha town on Tuesday. LH also stated that school/college going children, paramilitaries, police, administration, doctors on duty and pharmacies have been exempted from the proposed bandh.

Ko l k ata , N ov 1 9 (IANS): Ruling out any scope for the proposed Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) or any National Register of Citizens (NRC) exercise in West Bengal, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday accused the BJP, without naming it, of trying to divide the people of the state on the twin issues.

Speaking at an administrative meeting in north Bengal’s South Dinajpur district, Banerjee said that CAB will make those coming under the provision a foreigner for six years before a final decision is taken on their citizenship rights.

“The Citizenship Amendment Bill has provisions that will make you a foreigner for six years. Just imagine, today you have citizenship, you have all the documents and you are a voter. Now, from being an Indian, you will suddenly become a foreigner for six years. Then it will be decided whether you are a citizen of this country,” Banerjee said.

tachalam, the commercial banks paid a premium of Rs 11,190 crore during 2018-19 and Rs 10,350 crore the previous year to Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) with zero claims.

Venkatachalam said the total amount of deposits under 200 crore bank accounts were Rs 120 lakh crore whereas the deposit insurance cover is only for Rs 33.70 lakh crore or 28%.

He said while the premium is calculated on the entire Rs 120 lakh crore of commercial bank deposits, the insurance cover for bank deposit is only up to Rs 1 lakh. In the case of public sector banks, the total deposit is about Rs 70 lakh crore and the insurance cover is only for Rs 28 lakh crore or 30% of the total deposits. Venkatachalam said, as on 31-3-2019, the Deposit Insurance Fund of DICGC is Rs 97,350 crore including a surplus of Rs 87,890 crore.

The claims settled so far since 1962 is only Rs. 5,120 crores and that too for the cooperative banks. “Out of 2,098 banks covered by the DICGC, 1941 banks are cooperative banks. Only these banks are facing problems of closure and liquidation and the deposits of these banks need to be covered by DICGC.

Mumbai, Nov 19 (PTI): Market benchmark Sensex rose by 186 points on Tuesday, driven by substantial gains in Reliance Industries, Bharti Airtel and HDFC Bank amid positive trends in global equities.

The 30-share index ended 185.51 points, or 0.46 per cent, higher at 40,469.70 with 11 of its constituents closing with gains.

The broader Nifty of the National Stock Exchange rose by 55.60 points, or 0.47 per cent, to end at 11,940.10.

Reliance Industries led the gains, rallying nearly 4 per cent to its life-time high of Rs 1,514.95 (intra-day) on BSE. It became the first Indian company to hit the Rs 9.5 lakh-crore market capitalisation level.

Telecom stocks surged after two older players announced a hike in data and mobile telephony plans from next month.

C h e n na i , N ov 1 9 (IANS): Even as the government is mulling increasing the insurance cover for bank deposits, the All India Bank Employees’ Association (AIBEA) has demanded scrapping of such insurance cover for public sector bank deposits.

In a letter to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, the General Secretary of AIBEA said as per the Section 45 of Banking Regulations Act, 1947, the government and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) have the powers, in public interest, to amalgamate any bank with another bank. He said this would avert bank closures and consequent loss of deposits of the customers.

“Further, with the nationalisation of major banks in 1969 and 1980, the public sector banks also enjoy the sovereign guarantee of the government,” Venkatachalam said. According to him, there is no question or possibility of any commercial bank getting closed or liquidated as per Section 45 of the Banking Regulations Act. “Hence we strongly feel and opine that the deposits of commercial banks, importantly, the public sector banks, need not be covered by the Deposit Insurance Scheme at all,” he said.

Trump says he may testify in impeachment probe

Donald Trump (File)

a leading candidate for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, and his son, Hunter.

The Democrats say Trump’s actions amounted to “bribery,” one of the offenses that the constitution mentions as a basis for the impeachment and removal of a US president.

A July 25 phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is at the heart of the impeachment inquiry.

Trump had temporarily frozen nearly $400 million in military aid to Ukraine just ahead of the call, prompting suspicion that the request to investigate the Bidens was linked to the release of the funds.

The White House in September released the transcript of that phone call, a

document that shows that Trump urged Kiev to look into Joe Biden’s alleged interference in a probe of his son’s business dealings in Ukraine.

Tr ump, who vehemently denies that any quid pro quo was at work and says he withheld the aid over frustration with what he considered to be an insufficient amount of monetary assistance provided to Ukraine by other countries, says the transcript shows he did nothing wrong.

The aid was eventually released on September 11.

Ukraine has forged closer ties to the US since 2014, when Russia annexed the Crimean peninsula following the overthrow of Ukraine’s elected, pro-Russian president. Since that year, the US Congress has authorized $1.6 billion in military assistance to Kiev.

At least eight other current and former Trump administration officials are scheduled to testify publicly this week in the House inquiry.

If the House votes to impeach Trump, the Senate would hold a trial to decide whether to remove him from office.

C o lo m b o, N ov 1 9 (IANS): Former Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa has called for snap Parliamentary election in the wake of his brother, Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s presidential victory, insisting that it would improve governance to have the President and Cabinet from one party.

Addressing the media, the opposition leader in Parliament opined that it would be more effective to have a Government where the President and Cabinet were from the same party in the future. “I think it is better if we have General Elections.

Many Cabinet members have already stepped down.

I think it is more effective to have a Government where the President and Cabinet are from the same party,” he stated, pointing out that the public’s decision at the ballot box needed to be respected.

Gotabaya Rajapaksa, who served as Defence Minister when Mahinda Rajapaksa was Defence Minister and saw the end of the nearly three-decade-long civil war in 2009, was elected the island nation’s seventh President after winning the November 16 election.

China rejects HK court ruling against anti-mask law B e i j i n g , N ov 1 9 (IANS): Chinese authorities on Tuesday expressed their opposition to a Hong Kong High court ruling against a law banning face masks during the ongoing anti-government protests that have rocked the city since June.

Zang Tiewei, spokesperson for China’s legal affairs commission, said several mainland Chinese lawmakers expressed “strong dissatisfaction” over the court’s decision taken on Monday and that it could yet be overturned by the mainland Parliament, reports Efe news.

Zang said only mainland China’s permanent parliamentary body can judge whether a Hong Kong law is in conformity with Hong Kong’s constitution.

The Hong Kong government used the Emergency Regulations Ordinance last month - which dates back to the British colonial-era and has not been used since 1967 - to impose a ban on wearing masks during protests as a bid to quell protests.

Parliament’s legal committee claimed the ban, derived from the emergency regulations,

was in accordance with Basic Law, contrary to the Court’s decision.

Zang denounced the decision, saying it “seriously undermined” the power of the Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam and her government, and that they were “studying relevant opinions and suggestions” from other parliament deputies.

City authorities also spoke on the issue through a statement by the Hong Kong and Macao state council affairs office.

The office’s spokesperson Yang Guang said the anti-mask law played a positive role in the prevention of violence and disorder.

Yang said the court’s ruling was “a blatant challenge to the authority of (Parliament’s permanent body) and to the power vested in the Chief Executive (Lam) by law to govern”.

The spokesperson added that Beijing was closely monitoring the situation, and hoped the Hong Kong government and the judiciary would perform their duties strictly in accordance with the island’s Basic Law to end violence and chaos and restore order.

While the court ruling stated the ban went against the city’s Basic Law, it also acknowledged police had the right to ask people to

identify themselves and could ask them to remove their masks to verify their identities.

The law has not yet been invalidated, and a hearing is scheduled for Wednesday to clarify the ruling.

Under the gover nment ban, those found wearing masks at demonstrations faced up to one year in prison and fines of up to HK$25,000 (nearly $3,200).

However, the 106page ruling recognizes police’s right to ask people to remove their masks and adds that refusal to do so could lead to six months in prison or a HK$10,000 ($1,275) fine.

Until November 7, police had arrested 247 men and 120 women on suspicion of having violated the mask ban, and 24 were being tried, according to local press.

The controversial law seeks to force protesters to stop wearing masks as a way to hide their identities and thereby speed up police efforts to arrest violent protesters.

Many protesters have been used handkerchiefs and Guy Fawkes masks to cover their faces.

Washington, Nov 19 (IANS): US President Donald Trump has said he may take up an offer by congressional Democrats to testify in the House of Representatives’ impeachment probe.

The US President made his remarks on Twitter after several current and former US officials have expressed their concern about Trump’s behavior in the Ukraine case in closed-door sessions or public hearings in the lower house of Congress, Efe news reported.

“Our Crazy, Do Nothing (where’s USMCA, infrastructure, lower drug pricing & much more?) Speaker of the House, Nervous Nancy Pelosi, who is petrified by her Radical Left knowing she will soon be gone (they & Fake News Media are her BOSS), suggested on Sunday’s (“Face the Nation” television news program) that I testify about the phony Impeachment Witch Hunt. She also said I could do it in writing,” Trump wrote on Monday.

“Even though I did nothing wrong, and don’t like giving credibility to this No Due Process Hoax, I like the idea & will, in order to get Congress focused again, strongly consider it!” he added.

It marks the first time that Trump has spoken about the possibility of testifying in the Democrat-led inquiry, which had been held behind closed doors for weeks before entering a new phase last week with public hearings.

The probe is aimed at determining whether Trump threatened to withhold military aid to Ukraine in a bid to pressure that country’s president to announce an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden,

ife never gives up and urges one to never give up easily. That’s the quality of life, says Amitabh Bachchan.

The Bollywood veteran, who was not long ago discharged from a Mumbai hospital, has penned his thoughts about life on his blog. He has mentioned how a person has to undergo struggles daily, notwithstanding obstacles like “the filth, the dirt the slush the rain and heat” and still survive to keep fighting the next because life is “a continuous repair job”.

His blog post reads: “Life a continuous repair job..”

“Each day dawns and there is expectation of what lies ahead, what trials to face , what holds there , in the unknown and what be the desire to overcome or

accept it .. and eventually the revelation that indeed it was merely a WIP and one that was being attended to because it needed repair.. resolve.. remedy..”

“Defeated and defused the day ends.. for, the undertaken job has yet to be complied with.. to be brought to completion.. to be brought to its end.. and the realisation that there are no endings.. that ‘ending’ is

too distant to be seen heard or believed..” “..so you muster your way through.. the filth, the dirt the slush the rain and heat and all else..

BUT.. you survive to fight the next.. that is the quality of life.. it never gives up.. and urges to never give up either.. urge.. quality.. repair.. live”.

The actor has also started counting the number of days left for a new year to begin, as 2019 draws to an end. He took to Twitter to write: “Just 43 days left for the Year ‘two thousand nineteen’ to end.. AND not till we are alive will we be saying ‘teen’ again to announce a Year.. for a very long time.. !!” (IANS)

Sam Curran keen to shed ‘vulnerable’ tag

Sam Curran

Mt Maunganui, Nov 19 (Agencies): Sam Curran wants to shed his “vulnerable” tag if he is given the nod ahead of Chris Woakes for England’s first Test against New Zealand in Mount Maunganui this week.

The seam-bowling allrounder was England’s man of the series against India in a breakout summer last year but just two wickets in four Tests over the winter contributed to him being left out of the side when the Ashes started.

Curran was restored for the series finale at The Oval and his left-arm angle saw him preferred to Woakes in

the final warm-up against New Zealand A in Whangarei, in what was thought to be instructive in how England will line-up against the Black Caps.

He was wicketless in the first innings and looked worryingly ineffective on an unresponsive surface but took 3-42 second time around to improve his hopes of being named in England’s XI on Thursday morning.

He said, “I think if I do get the chance, it is about nailing down my spot in the side and stop being the one that is vulnerable. That is my responsibility and whoever gets the spot, if it is me, has to take the opportunity

by getting runs and taking wickets and contributing to the team.”

“If I do get the nod hopefully I can go well and contribute with both bat and ball. That is my aim and as long as I’m helping to win games for the team then I’m happy.”

Curran’s efforts were not enough for a win at the Cobham Oval as the flat pitch and an ageing Kookaburra ball had the final say, with the ninth-wicket pairing of William Somerville and Ajaz Patel holding firm to secure a draw.

As England headed south to Mount Maunganui on Monday, Curran and his bowling colleagues know they must find a way to make headway with the Kookaburra, traditionally less likely to dart around than the Dukes ball.

The 21-year-old said.

“I think any bowler who bowls with a Kookaburra is going to say they prefer the Dukes but you’ve got to learn somehow.” “(Stuart Broad) has been saying he’s played abroad for 10 years now and you’ve got to learn to do this because every time you go on tour, this is what you’ve got. It is a great learning curve for me, but I’ve made some strides in this game and come up with a few different options so I’m pretty confident.”

“If there isn’t a warmth for you to continue, then that can start to affect the team. I’m realistic about how quickly those tides can turn.”

Southgate, who took over the England role on a permanent basis in 2016 and

has a contract until 2022, led the side to the World Cup semi-finals last year and topped their Euro 2020 qualifying group to earn a seeding at the finals.

England are set to play their group stage matches at Wembley, which will also host the semis and final, and Southgate said he was aware of soaring expectations.

“We’ve dealt well with the expectation over the last 18 months,” he said. “We’ve not shirked from that in the qualifying matches where, in the past, there’s been a tension around the performances and the style of the games.”

“Securing qualification is a little bit joyless because I’m expecting us to win these games and I’m always looking at how to get better... For me, it’s about what’s next and I know we’ll always be judged ultimately by the tournaments in the summer.”

Man United debt climbs 55% L o n d o n, N ov 1 9 (Agencies): Manchester United’s attempt to strengthen its underperforming squad has proved costly with debt rising more than 55% in a year to 384.5 million pounds ($498 million).

The cost of signing Harr y Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James ahead of the new season in the first quarter of the financial year was around 140 million pounds.

Although United reported record revenue last season of 627.1 million pounds, the New York Stock Exchange-listed business is now expecting the 2019-20 figure to drop to between 560 million and 580 million pounds That is due to United missing out on Champions League television and prize money after finishing sixth last season.

250 players in fray for India International Challenge players, this year will see participation from star players from Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and upcoming players from countries like Russia, United States, Bhutan, among others.

In the Men’s Singles event, the No.1 and No.2 seed players include Valdimir Malkov (Russia) and Ajay Jayaram (India).

The category will see young international players from India, Malaysia and Thailand challenge one

Switzerland qualify for Euro 2020 Sechü Zubza FC in Classic Cup semis Correspondent

GIBRALTAR, Nov 19 (Agencies): Switzerland qualified for Euro 2020 with an easy 6-1 win away to Gibraltar in their final Group D qualifying match on Monday with Cedric Itten scoring twice.

The Swiss topped the group with 17 points, one ahead of Denmark who also qualified.

Needing a draw to qualify, the Swiss went ahead after 10 minutes through Itten, who had scored on his debut on Friday to give them a 1-0 win over Georgia. Ruben Vargas got to the byline and sent over a low cross which the Gibraltar defence failed to intercept and Itten tapped in.

Vargas himself headed the second from Loris Benito’s cross five minutes after halftime and Christian Fassnacht added the third seven minutes later after the Gibraltar defence failed to deal with Michael Lang’s cross.

Gibraltar pulled one back in the 74th minute when a long throw was headed on at the near post, the ball bobbled around and Reece Styche prodded it in.

But the celebrations

they will be one of the top four teams in the November 30 draw.

The Romanians, meanwhile, came into the contest at Madrid’s Wanda Metropolitano with nothing to fear, as Sweden had already locked down second in the group and the Balkan side’s only chance of advancing lies in a potential playoff.

Apparently undistracted by rumours that coach Robert Moreno will be leaving in favour of previous incumbent Luis Enrique, La Roja overwhelmed the visitors from the opening whistle, reports Efe news.

Spain had 75 per cent possession, outshot their opponents 21-6 and made 863 passes to Romania’s 296.

The Spanish attackers ran rings around the Romania defense and even before Fabian Ruiz scored in the 8th minute to make it 1-0 for the hosts, Santi Cazorla hit the post and Jose Luis Gaya had a goal disallowed.

Romania’s only opportunity in the first half was the result of a defensive miscue that left striker George Puscas alone in front of Spain’s goal, where

Enrique re-appointed Spain boss

Pfutsero Govt College sports meet begins

M a d ri d, N ov 1 9 (Agencies): Luis Enrique has been re-appointed as the manager of Spain, five months after stepping down from the role for personal reasons.

Enrique resigned from the role in June as his nineyear-old daughter Xana was seriously ill with bone cancer, and subsequently died in August.

However, Spanish Football Federation president Luis Rubiales confirmed Enrique’s reinstatement as manager at a press conference on Tuesday.

Rubiales said, “Today we can confirm that Luis Enrique will return to his position. We have acted sincerely, we have not deceived anyone. Everyone knew that if Luis Enrique wanted to come back he had the doors open.”

The president also revealed the new manager’s contract “will continue to the Qatar World Cup,” in

did not last long as Switzerland went straight down the other end from the re-start and Benito added a fourth.

Itten took his tally to three in two internationals when he headed the fifth and provided the pass for Granit Xhaka to slot home the sixth as Gibraltar tired.

Spain thrash Romania 5-0

Meanwhile, Spain, already through to the 2020 Euro Cup tourney as the top team in Group F, thrashed Romania 5-0 here to ensure

2022.

The former Barcelona manager missed Spain’s previous three games before leaving the role and was replaced by his long-term assistant Robert Moreno, who was given a contract until after the European Championships.

Moreno went on to win four of his six games in charge, including Monday’s 5-0 victory over Romania, as Spain secured their qualification for Euro 2020 with two games to spare.

The 42-year-old

walked out of Atletico Madrid’s Metropolitano stadium in tears following the win on Monday, without himself or the players talking to the media.

Moreno said in September he would stand aside and continue his former role as assistant should Enrique feel fit to return, although he will now leave immediately.

It is understood Moreno was disappointed Rubiales did not confirm who would be Spain’s manager for the Euros after their 7-0 win against Malta on Friday.

Enrique’s re-appointment sees him become the fourth change of manager since Julen Lopetegui was dismissed just days before Spain’s 2018 World Cup opener.

The 49-year-old won eight of 10 matches during his previous tenure, suffering Nations League defeats to England and Croatia.

Dimap u r , N ov 1 9 (NPN): The 37th annual games and sports meet of Pfutsero Government College, Pfutsero kicked off on Tuesday at Pfutsero Sports Complex with Mr. Colo Mero, director, Life Ministries Nagaland as guest speaker.

In his address, the guest speaker encouraged the students to be men and women of integrity with good character. He also encouraged the students to develop and master at least one skill and polish it so that it will help them in future.

Medozu Mero, vice principal, PGC delivered the welcome address. The sports week began with tug of war between lady teachers and students (girls) and football match between the male teachers and students’ union executives and EU office bearers.

Kepa proved equal to the task, while the referee ignored the visitors’ plea for a penalty after an encounter between Dani Carvajal and Florinel Coman.

Gerard Moreno, off to a great start with Villarreal in LaLiga, took a giant step toward winning a spot on Spain’s Euro 2020 with a pair of goals just 10 minutes apart - in the 33rd and 43rd - with support from Alvaro Morata.

Moreno also initiated the play that resulted in Romanian defender Adrian Rus’ own goal in the 45th minute to give Spain a massive 4-0 advantage.

Job done, La Roja eased up a little in the second half, though they remained dominant and almost all of the handful of threats Romania managed to pose were the consequence of Spanish errors.

Sergio Ramos and Morata had each chances for the fifth goal, but it was Mikel Oyarzabal, sent in for Moreno in the 56th minute, who completed the rout with a great strike in stoppage time.

Spain win Group F with 26 points on eight wins and two draws, five points ahead of Sweden.

Tokyo finishes Team India in Kolkata for D/N Test I’m looking for ways to improve: Federer building stadium

Roger Federer

Buenos Aires, Nov 19 (IANS): Switzerland’s Roger Federer, regarded by many as the greatest men’s tennis player of all time, said Monday ahead of an exhibition match against Germany’s Alexander Zverev in the Argentine capital that he is always striving to improve and believes that it is still possible even at age 38.

“I didn’t know if I was still going to be playing. I predicted that I wasn’t going to be playing anymore at 38, 39, and here I am,” Federer said at a joint press conference with Zverev at a hotel

in Buenos Aires’s Puerto Madero neighbourhood.

“I’m really actually happy that I feel the way I am. I’ve had two great years physically also in the last two years.”

Federer has long been part of a remarkable triumvirate -- along with Spain’s Rafael Nadal and Serbia’s Novak Djokovic -- that have pushed one another to greater heights while winning a combined total of 55 Grand Slam titles and keeping Zverev and other talented young players titleless at tennis’ four most

prestigious events, reports Efe news.

“Ever y generation brings something new to the table, maybe in power, maybe in movement, maybe in tactical elements, and I’m still feeling I can ... always improve. You can always learn and that’s what I’m doing,” the Swiss world No. 3 said.

Federer, who has won a record 20 men’s singles Grand Slam titles, but now is only one ahead of the 33-year-old Nadal, said he also will use Wednesday’s exhibition match at Buenos

Aires’s Parque Roca Stadium as an opportunity to experiment with his game.

“I’m not just going to go out there and play a little bit of tennis. I’m actually going to go in there, enjoy myself, but also maybe try out a few things.”

Referring to his eventual retirement from the sport, Federer said he will play it by year.

“There’s no rules to it.

You go by feel, and I actually don’t know if I’m going to announce it early, late, all of a sudden. I think it all depends on my health, on my family, on my results also a little bit, obviously.”

The 22-year-old Zverev, for his part, said the exhibition match will be an emotional one for him, Federer and the Argentine fans.

“All of us players, you know, most of the time we lose to him, but we still hope he doesn’t retire. We still want him around as much as possible,” the world No. 7 said.

Federer was originally slated to play Juan Martin del Potro, but the popular Argentine had to pull out of the exhibition event due an injury setback.

Before the press conference got under way, Federer greeted nearly 100 fans who had gathered outside the hotel and signed autographs and posed for photos.

for Olympics

TOKYO, Nov 19 (Agencies): Construction work has been completed at Tokyo’s National Stadium, set to be the centrepiece of next year’s Olympic Games, the site’s owners said on Tuesday.

T h e Ja p a n S p o r t s Council said the final work had been completed on Thursday with just the final quality and safety checks remaining before the stadium opens next month.

It will be officially unveiled on Dec. 21, with the Emperor’s Cup soccer final being the first sporting event to be held there on New Year’s Day. Completed at a cost of more than $1.25 billion, the stadium, which can accommodate 60,000, will also host the athletics and soccer events during the Games.

Construction started in December 2016, about 14 months later than planned, after the original design was scrapped because of a public outcry over spiralling costs.

The delay meant the stadium could not host matches of the Rugby World Cup, as originally planned.

The National Stadium is one of eight new venues to be used at the Tokyo Games, all of them are either complete or on schedule to be finished before the event.

Ko lkata , N ov 1 9 (IANS): The Indian team has arrived in Kolkata for the second Test against Bangladesh, which will be the first time ever that they will be playing a day-night Test match. The match will be played from November 22 to 26.

It was earlier reported that the coaches of the two teams, Ravi Shastri and Russell Domingo, are likely to visit Eden Gardens after landing in the city.

“The coaches can go.

They are scheduled to head to the Eden directly from the airport,” local India team manager Samrat Bhowmick told IANS. Skipper Virat Kohli and vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane touched down at around 9.40 a.m. before the rest of the players and headed straight to the team hotel.
