“A teacher is one who ignites the young mind, nurtures the sprouts to take strong roots, clears the weeds of ignorance and helps the bud blossom into a flower. If that’s the case, imagine schools with shortage of teachers,” the statement read.

VCs take exception to withdrawal of money for non-existent hostel work DIMAPUR, NOV 3 (NPN): The village councils of Tenyiphe-I, Tenyiphe-II and Tenyiphe-III (Virazouma) have taken strong exception to report of withdrawal of Rs. 72 lakh for construction of a hostel at Tenyiphe village here.

The report was published on September 18 after Nagaland Public Rights Awareness and Action Forum had highlighted the issue over double drawals.

In a joint statement, Helie Kruse, Runavilhou Kin and Videzol Natso, chairmen of the village councils of Tenyiphe-I, Tenyiphe-II and Tenyiphe-III (Virazouma) respectively, said a joint meeting of the three villages was held on October 24 on the matter.

During the meeting it was found that no such work had been taken up

in any village and that no person by the name “Tepuvito Angami”, to whom the works had been allegedly awarded, exists in any of the three villages, the chairmen stated.

The statement said the village councils have taken serious view of the matter and the government’s bid to indulge in corruption by using the village’s name.

They also demanded that the government or the concerned department clarify as to where the hostel was being constructed or where the said fund had been utilized.

“The three village councils cannot remain mute spectators to such act of the government in siphoning off such a huge amount by using our village name, and the government should let the villages know who Tepuvito Angami is and as to what he

had done with the amount he had drawn using our villages’ name,” the statement demanded.

The statement also summoned Tepuvito Angami to appear before the three village councils within 15 days from the date of its publication, failing which the villages councils have threatened to initiate their our own course of action that will have unpleasant consequences in the long run.

On September last, NPRAAF had come out with a startling revelation alleging that the Finance department had issued double DAs for construction of 17 Boys/Girls hostel for Scheduled Tribe at various locations across the state, thereby doubling the expenditure from Rs. 10.03 to Rs. 20.5 crore

BDO office issue: KPO objects to KPU’s claims

DIMAPUR, NOV 3 (NPN): Giving a new twist to the ongoing controversy surrounding delay in construction of BDO office building at Chunlikha RD block, the Kithagha Public Organization (KPO), HQ Chunlikha, on Friday objected to the claims made by the Kandinu public union (KPU) on the issue. In a press release, KPO president, Dr. Khanlo Magh, and general secretary, Zukeya Woch, stated that proposal for creation of the RD Block was made at Chunlikha, the place being the centre and headquarters of Northern Rengmas consisting of 13 villages with a total population of 27,877 and 4654 households and considering its suitable location in all aspects. The signatories said the Cabinet had accordingly approved creation of RD Block Chunlikha and not Tsonsa village as claimed by the KPU in a section of local media on November 1, 2017.

Further, KPO recalled that a meeting of constituent villages was held on February 24, 2012 in connection with selection of site for RD Block Chunlikha.

SC refuses stay on linking Aadhaar to bank accounts

NEW DELHI, Nov 3 (Agencies): Supreme Court (SC) on Friday refused to pass an interim order staying the linking of Aadhaar with mobile numbers and bank accounts, saying that it is leaving the issue to be decided on by a Constitution bench in the last week of November.

At the same time though, the top court chastised banks and mobile telephone companies for creating panic by sending customers messages saying their accounts will be deactivated if they don’t link them to Aadhaar.

The Centre denied that such messages were being sent. “I don’t want to say in the presence of media people, but I also get (these) messages,” said Justice AK Sikri, referring to the sometimes umpteen-a-day text messages threatening deactivation for not linking one’s Aadhaar to one’s bank account and mobile phone number.

The top court asked these institutions to avoid scaring people in this manner, while it was hearing a (Cont’d on p-7) plea from social activists

SC bars distance education by deemed universities NEW DELHI, NOV 3 (PTI): Supreme Court Friday restrained all deemed universities across the country from continuing any distance learning courses from the 2018-19 without prior approval of the regulatory authorities and ordered a CBI probe into granting of retrospective approvals to four of them.

SC also directed the University Grants Commission (UGC) to restrain such institutions from using the word ‘University’ within one month from today, observing that commercialisation of education “seriously affects credibility of standards in education, eroding power and essence of knowledge and seriously affecting excellence and merit”.

A bench of Justices Adarsh Kumar Goel and U U Lalit directed a CBI inquiry against the conduct of UGC officials who had granted ex-post facto approvals to the four deemed universities against the policy and into the conduct of these institutions which had abused their position to advance their commercial interests.

It said that unless off-campus centres or study centres were individually inspected and found adequate by the statutory authorities, no course-specific approvals should be granted for distance learning courses.

to restrain the Centre from linking Aadhaar to bank accounts and mobile phone numbers until a Constitution bench decides its validity.

Such a bench is expected to soon hear a bunch of petitions challenging the validity of Aadhaar on the ground that it violated citizens’ right to privacy.

The SC on Friday also asked the Centre to direct companies to mention in their text messages, the last date for linking their mobile numbers and bank accounts with Aadhaar.

This statement from the SC came a day after the Centre told the apex court that all subscribers had to link their mobile phone numbers with Aadhaar by February 6 under E-KYC verification. The Centre also said on Thursday that showing proof of Aadhaar is mandatory for opening new bank accounts.

The Centre further said on Thursday that it was the SC that had approved the norm for mandatory Aadhaar-mobile phone linkage - with a window of one year - in the Lokniti Foundation case on February 6.

Any order against Aadhaar will hurt over 118 cr people: Centre Centre, in its 113-page affidavit in the Supreme Court, has highlighted how extensive the proliferation and coverage of Aadhaar has become in India, with 118.64 crore population having already enrolled with the UID scheme. The widespread reach of Aadhaar has been underlined by the government to tell the Court that any adverse order against the validity of Aadhaar will jeopardise interests of millions of Indians, who are beneficiaries of various social welfare schemes.

Stating that the country has wholeheartedly accepted Aadhaar, the government, in its new affidavit, said that the 12-digit UID “provides a lifelong identifier to a resident”. Running across several pages, the affidavit has, in fact, pointed out how big the Aadhaar scheme has become during the pendency of the case since 2012.

As of Friday, the total number of Aadhaar numbers generated stands at 118.64 odd Crores.

NPCC demands Imkong Imchen’s resignation DIMAPUR, NOV 3 (NPN): Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) has strongly condemned the alleged physical assault on principal director of Health & Family Welfare department, Dr. Bendangyanger Jamir by Health & Family Welfare minister Imkong L Imchen and demanded the latter’s resignation for his unbecoming conduct.

In a statement, NPCC said that the minister concerned had crossed all limits of decency by indulging in a senseless act that cannot be just wished away by tendering a mere apology. Stating that Imchen was a habitual offender despite being an elected lawmaker, the Congress said it was a disgrace to the people of Nagaland that such people were allowed to become Minister again and again even as his misdeeds continued to grow.

“When the minister has the audacity to physically assault a senior official without any second thoughts, then there is nothing more to expect from him when dealing with com-

mon people,” the party said.

The Congress said that after 15 years in government the arrogance of the NPF and its leaders had reached such a point that they have no hesitation in even physically assaulting senior government officials.

It said the action of the government in deputing one senior Minister to plead on Imchen’s behalf was an indirect way of defending his reckless act and “for which the NPCC indicts the government for sheltering the accused minister and denying true justice to the Principal Director and the entire medical fraternity”.

Stating that Imchen continuing as a minister had become untenable, the NPCC demanded his immediate resignation to avoid bringing “further disrepute” to the office he holds.

It also stated that should Imchen still “shamelessly clinging” on to his chair, chief minister, TR Zeliang should sack him from the Cabinet or “else the CM and the entire Cabinet would be held responsible for legitimizing his uncivilized conduct”.

KOHIMA, NOV 3 (NPN): Even as the sit-in protest organized by NPF central youth wing entered day ten Friday, there was no concrete response from the NLA speaker till date. The NPF central youth wing has, however, affirmed to continue the protest till matter was brought to its logical conclusion.

The sit-in dharna began on October 23, 2017 in protest against the NLA speaker’s inaction to settle cases regarding the disqualification issue, recognition of NPF legislature party leader and recognition of the NPF chief whip. Speaking on the tenth day of sit-in protest at civil secretariat here, NPF legislature party spokesperson, Yitachu, MLA, said that once the present government was found to be unconstitutional, inves(Cont’d on p-8) tigation would follow and

many of the elected members including the officers would land in trouble. MLA said that any activities carried out during this period would be deemed illegal and many would land in jail.

Slamming the chief minister and his cabinet colleagues for frequenting ECI office in Delhi, Yitachu said the state leaders holding such high positions and moving around ECI compound was a mockery to the state.

He said it depended on the Nagas whether to re-elect such leaders or elect a fresh batch of leaders to lead them. “Power lies in the hands of the Nagas,” MLA said. Continuing his attack on state governor, PB Acharya, the NPF legislature party spokesperson asked the governor to follow the constitution if he was so desperate to form BJP government.

Yitachu also asked the governor not to play with

the sentiments of the Nagas in the name of Naga political issue. The MLA also slammed the governor over his purported announcement on September 18 that solution would come within one month time. He said the party was all prepared to cooperate, but nothing was proved.

In this regard, Yitachu asked the constitutional head not to make such statement without proof and facts.

Also, speaking at the protest site, NPF youth ambassador, Imlibenla Wati, said the situation was created because of the “seasoned leaders” who had failed to uphold the party principles.

She lamented that NPF president, Dr. Shürhozelie Liezietsu, was betrayed by his own members for lust of power and money. Wati then questioned the rival faction what kind of precedence was it going to show the younger generation.

‘Catch the fire RAISE-NE campaign for inclusive education today crusade’ begins

Correspondent

KOHIMA, NOV 3 (NPN): With an aim to spread awareness on inclusive education for children with special needs in schools, Regional Action on Inclusive Education (RAISE) Northeast with Cherry Blossom School as its lead partner would be organising a “Include Vidya Campaign” on November 4 in Kohima.

The campaign rally would start at 9 a.m. from the over-bridge area near Mezhür School, Kohima where students from 23 schools, teachers, parents and NGOs are expected to attend the rally. The students would then march to State Academy Hall.

The rally also aims to change the attitude of people and society towards disability and raise awareness and visibility on the

widespread exclusion of children with special needs from education.

In a press conference on Friday at Hotel Japfü Kohima, Cherry Blossoms School director, Purnima Kayina, expressed confidence that the rally would influence the state government and policy makers to make serious commitments towards inclusive education.

She said “Include Vidya Campaign” was a Christofell Blinden Mission (CBM) initiative to include children with disabilities in education in India. Campaign complements the government’s flagship programme – Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) to achieve its goal of “education for all”.

Though many people have compassion for children with special needs, Kayina regretted that without any policy for children

with special needs, compassion alone would not help.

She also lamented that though former governor of Nagaland Ashwani Kumar enhanced the job reservation for disabled persons from 3% to 5% however the same was not implemented and many disabled students remain unemployed.

Highlighting the findings during RAISE-NE survey conducted in 300 schools in Kohima, Dimapur and Mokokchung districts, Kayina, said most the schools lacks infrastructures for differently abled persons.

She said only few schools have ramps, handrail, grabbars, anti-skid floorings as per the needs of children with disabilities.

She said separate toilets for boys and girls were not provisioned in most schools and that more than 60% of the schools did not

make any toilet provision for disabled students.

Irregular supply of water in toilets and lack of access to drinking water were common, Kayina informed and added that lack of transportation or access to public transport and poor road connectivity to schools was also noted. Kayina also lamented that huge percentage of teachers in Nagaland were never trained to teach children with disabilities.

Asserting that children with disabilities have equal rights to access education, she said RAISE-NE project goes beyond enrolment to active learning, participation in a classroom as well as the playing field and other extracurricular activities.

Advocacy co-ordinator, Hirohito Habib, said RAISE-NE project was for a period of five years and was supported by three in-

ternational NGOs. Habib said RAISE-NE was a collaboration of 15 partner organizations partners in Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Tripura, Agartala.

He said the specific objectives of the project was to render improved quality of education for children with disabilities in neighbourhood, government elementary schools in selected districts of five states in North East.

Habib said the project envisages seeing a result on teacher competence, attitude change, replicable PPP Model and joint learning adding that RAISE-NE was a unique initiative which emphasis on innovation, inclusion and adaptations.

RAISE-NE was launched on April 12th 2016

by Cherry Blossoms School which was a part of RAISENE project at Kohima.

Stating that the end time was near and the sec-

ond coming of Christ was approaching, he urged the people to embrace Christ as saviour.

Meghalaya govt to study HC judgement on education scam

Correspondent

Shillong, Nov 3: The Meghalaya government on Friday said that it would study High Court’s judgement on the teachers’ recruitment scam in government-run lower-primary schools.

Delivering the judgment, a Division Bench of Chief Justice Dinesh Maheshwari and Justice Ved Prakash Vaid ordered fresh selection of teachers in certain centres of the state, imposed fine on “tainted” teachers and debarred them from government employment.

They also ordered a CBI probe in the illegal appointment of assistant teachers and asked to submit their finding to Chief Secretary within six months.

“We will study the judgement of the court. The department will also have a discussion with the chief minister. I have nothing to

comment further on it,” School Education Minister Deborah C. Marak said.

The teachers’ recruitment scam was unearthed by some candidates when they obtained information through the RTI Act, 2005 and found discrepancies in the appointment process.

The job applicants approached the then Shillong bench of Gauhati High Court and a CBI inquiry was ordered. The CBI inquiry had restricted itself to just five of the 15 sub-divisions.

These include Shillong Sadar, Jowai, Amlarem, Tura and Dadenggre.

The CBI had unearthed grave anomalies in the selection process.

In the judgement, the bench also annulled the entire selection process in the five centres.

However, the court said only those candidates treated as “untainted/unblemished” both in the reports of the CBI and HLSC

(high level scrutiny committee, constituted by the state government) and who are in service may continue as stop-gap arrangement until fresh selection takes place.

The Court said none of the candidates found tainted/blemished and those recommended by public representatives should be retained even in stop-gap arrangement and the service of every such candidate should stand terminated with immediate effect.

It asked the CBI to conduct an inquiry into the other centres and submit a report to the chief secretary in six months.

The court said candidates, who have been found tainted/blemished in the CBI report and/or HLSC report for the five centres, may make a representation within 30 days from Thursday to the chief secretary for consideration as untainted candidate.

The chief secretary

and a committee will examine the representations and if the committee confirms the tainted character of any such candidate, he/she would stand permanently debarred from seeking any government employment and would be liable for a penalty of Rs 50,000 to be deposited in the State Disaster Management Fund.

The court also asked the CBI to conduct a probe into an allegation made by a candidate in an FIR, saying that she was cheated and deprived of job opportunity with erasure of her marks in the compilation sheet.

The CBI has been given six months to complete the task The bench said the disciplinary proceedings against the then Director, Elementary and Mass Education, J.D Sangma will continue and the case file of disciplinary proceedings should be returned to the Advocate General.

The court allowed them to be impleaded before a Constitution Bench which will go into the very validity of the demonetisation law, saying they can address their grievances before that Bench.

Lawyers representing the petitioners argued that they have been deprived of their “hard-earned money” without due prior notice.

“The Prime Minister had promised an extension of the deadline for deposit of demonetised notes. We want to give back to the RBI. We are talking about amounts like ` 1 lakh that we want to deposit and not crores,” advocate Pranav Sachdeva submitted.

The Centre has remained firm about not extending the deadline. It has already told the Supreme Court that it had taken a conscious decision to not give any grace period for citizens to deposit their demonetised notes after the cut-off date of December 30, 2016.

Doing so would have defeated the very purpose of demonetisation, the government said.

The government was replying to the Supreme Court’s strident appeal to open a window for genuine people, like the terminallyill and invalids, to name a few, who were unable to

Friday

New Delhi, Nov 3 (AGENCIES): The government on Friday assured in the Supreme Court that it will not take any criminal action for possessing demonetised notes beyond December 31, 2016 against those who have approached the apex court.

These petitioners had approached the SC urging for an extension of the deadline to deposit demonetised notes in their possession.

Appearing before a Bench led by Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra, Attorney General K.K. Venugopal reassured the petitioners, but added that protection against criminal action would only extend to the demonetised money they have specifically mentioned in their petitions before the Supreme Court.

They cannot claim protection for other amounts they may possess, the government clarified.

The petitioners, which include farmers from Maharashtra to the hospitalised and overseas citizens, urged the Supreme Court to direct the government to extend the deadline.

However, the Bench said the demonetisation law is still constitutionally valid and the court cannot grant them any interim relief against the law.

“Two to three such incidents have taken place in the recent past. We are given to believe that these are acts of desperation by

Tools of tyranny

hen politicians in India call each other ‘chor’, it is like the pot calling the kettle black and when they sing one tune while out of government and another tune when in government, they only replay the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde syndrome. Indian politicians including those in other states who have earned dubious reputation for such behaviour have made a mockery of democracy. The Indian fourth pillar or fourth estate of democracy has also not done itself any good and most unfortunately, the fourth estate has lost much credibility. The other supposedly reputed and trusted institutions such as the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) etc have also become mired in controversies in becoming the tools of witch hunt of those ruling the government and used against political opponents or critics.

When the three- legislature, institutions and fourth estate- are no longer independent but succumb to the pressure from those ruling the government, then the state of democracy can only become distorted and give way to forces inimical to free speech, secularism and fundamental rights. Indian politicians have a desi kind of freedom to organise bandhs in the streets or cause disruptions in parliaments. Interestingly, when those out of power occupy the seats of power, they gradually ignore what they have promised while not in power. This kind of hypocrisy is the worst kind of ailment among Indian politicians. They choose to forget what they have said when not in power. When not in power, the politicians had also hit out against the misuse of central investigating agencies such as the CBI, NIA and ED in targeting critics and political foes. In fact during the UPA regime, the opposition had successfully accused the then ruling coalition of misusing CBI, NIA and ED against political opponents for ‘witch hunt’. Even the Supreme Court had gone to sarcastically describe the CBI as a ‘caged parrot’.

Today the CBI can be described as an ‘unleashed bull mastiff’ set among the opponents and critics of the government of the day. It is indeed glaring to witness how CBI, NIA and ED have been used to harass or terrorise opponents and critics. And most shockingly, offenders and cheats in the government or those who defect or kowtow to the government are spared the harassment and indignity of having to face charges or hauled to courts or even jailed. If one CM from an opposition party is being hounded for Rs.2 crore as undisclosed income ; others from the ruling party and who are accused of involvement in corruption that are more than triple the amount of Rs.2 crore are given the benefit of doubt. The worst that has happened to India today is a media which has lost its reputation and independence because the government has either bought or used various methods to sterilise it. The average citizen is caught between the cross wires of high decibel media pyrotechnics, which appear of late to have lost credibility and objectivity, and are under charge themselves of being prejudiced, biased and compromised with vested interests of business houses who own them. Today it is more than not having a Lok Pal as it involves a totally different form of subtle but clear move towards restricted democracy that is not good for a diverse country.

DailyDevotion A Bondservant of Jesus I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me… —Galatians 2:20 These words mean the breaking and collapse of my independence brought about by my own hands, and the surrendering of my life to the supremacy of the Lord Jesus. No one can do this for me, I must do it myself. God may bring me up to this point three hundred and sixty-five times a year, but He cannot push me through it. It means breaking the hard outer layer of my individual independence from God, and the liberating of myself and my nature into oneness with Him; not following my own ideas, but choosing absolute loyalty to Jesus. Once I am at that point, there is no possibility of misunderstanding. Very few of us know anything about loyalty to Christ or understand what He meant when He said, “…for My sake” (Matthew 5:11). That is what makes a strong saint.

Has that breaking of my independence come?

All the rest is religious fraud. The one point to decide is— will I give up? Will I surrender to Jesus Christ, placing no conditions whatsoever as to how the brokenness will come? I must be broken from my own understanding of myself. When I reach that point, immediately the reality of the supernatural identification with Jesus Christ takes place. And the witness of the Spirit of God is unmistakable— “I have been crucified with Christ….”

The passion of Christianity comes from deliberately signing away my own rights and becoming a bondservant of Jesus Christ. Until I do that, I will not begin to be a saint.

One student a year who hears God’s call would be sufficient for God to have called the Bible Training College into existence. This college has no value as an organization, not even academically. Its sole value for existence is for God to help Himself to lives.

Will we allow Him to help Himself to us, or are we more concerned with our own ideas of what we are going to be?

Post-mortem

Advocating the Rights of Persons with Disabilities W orld disability day is just a month away and as a way of preparing the way for it let me write down some few lines to open up and prepare our mind so that we will have something to think over when that day finally arrives. Today we live in a world where countless of differently able people (Persons with disabilities) are denied of their rights in government and public sectors, many society do not even consider their existence and since these group of people cannot stand for their right to fight for their existence, there is an urgent need of advocates who will stand for them, speak for them and fight the society on their behalf in order to communicate the truth that differently able people have a right to live and built their own world in the society. Keeping this in mind let me highlight how we common people can advocate the right of differently able people in many different ways.

What is advocacy or advocating?

Dictionary defines advocacy as a public support for a course of action; advocating the rights of persons with disabilities simply means standing for the rights of disabled people, speaking or acting on their behalf, taking action to help them say what they want, secure their rights, represent their interests and standing for them not simply with the way of speaking but by intervening physically, mentally and financially by making various long term plans and aims.

Understanding the Problems Faced By Persons with Disabilities 1. Emotional problems: Inferiority and Shame: Inferiority is said to be an important emotion that invades everybody, able or disabled, rich or poor, men or women but majority of people who faces this throughout their lifetime are disabled people. They feel inferior to others; they feel shy to be social or even to talk to others by thinking about their disability. They feel as if they are cursed and never tend to gain their self esteem, for some disabled people these kinds of problems seems to grow or developed as the person grows and learn to know the reality of the world but sometimes this problems is caused because of the treatment they receive from people around them.

Anger: Anger repre-

T

hose who stay in cold areas would be feeling the arrival of winter with the straws of grain filled with liquid rotting into soil following the paddy crops harvest when jhum is over. A gentle breeze falls on the earth and dewdrops begin to fall on cool surface at night.

This revisiting festival season brings along dry cold equally to every rich and poor, young and old.

We a r e s a d d e n e d by the shortening days, climb into bed earlier and sleepless night if the bed’s warmth is thin and generally resent waking up when the morning light grows.

The orphans of deceased parents, members of lost breadwinner are all to endure through this cold chilly days and nights.

The fragile older persons nearing their death, the deprived and poverty stricken

sents one of the unpleasant or negative emotions that are learned by child during the course of h/her normal growth and development.

When an individual need is thwarted and h/her freedom are restrained, h/she is tempted to get irritated and angry. Differently able people goes through this same problem because their need is thwarted, their freedom is restrained and blocked completely, they cannot do anything on their own, this makes h/her angry to God and on their own self because they feel so lonely while the able people are enjoying life in every way.

Frustration: Frustration comes from failure to meet one’s needs and wishes, from mistakes, from personal limitations and from lack of meaning of life. In the case disabled people they are often frustrated because their needs are never met; they are always pushed aside rather than treating them with love and care.

They end up being disappointed, discouraged with their existence and live in deep frustration.

Anxiety: Dictionary of pastoral care defines anxiety as a psychic condition which is experienced by all human being. However anxiety in disabled people are more serious than any normal people, Anxiety of the disabled person comes along with fear of life, fear of what tomorrow holds, fears of security and fears of being left alone. Sometimes their anxiety is often left unattended or un reported leading to even more psychological disability.

Depression: depression has been recognized as a common problem for more than three thousand years ago. It is a common psychological disorder, it is said that people who are depressed are feel sad, discouraged and worthless and like any other normal individual the person with disability has an emotion of depression which is cause out of their own hopeless situation of life, even despite their desire they cannot keep in touch with the world as a result they end up feeling depressed and frustrated with their life.

1. Social problems: Stigmatization: Many people with disabilities are looked down as inferior or imperfect being and people often avoid associating with them, sometimes they are not even counted as living member of the family.

Abandonment/Infanticide: we have witnessed many family killing

the child, or abandoning the child, especially in the Indian context where the families are poor and below poverty line, they tend to kill the child or throw away the child in the street or garbage’s if the child was born with certain disabilities in order to avoid the shame of the society and to do away with the problems of feeding the disabled child throughout h/her life time.

Confinement: Another serious problem that the disabled people face is confinement, often as a means of hiding what is perceived to be disgraceful aspect in the family, they are kept in seclusion; sometimes parents keep them in care centres and never visit them. Even in Christian family it has come to light that many parents and siblings tend to hide the disabled member of the family by locking them inside the room when some high profile guest visit their home.

Illiteracy though the education system for disabled system has changed into better way in some places but maximum of the states in our country, especially in the remote places and villages there are still no provision for disabled school or education for disabled people.

They are left out of education program either because of no school or because of no facility to go to school and year by year their education is neglected. Some parents tend to think what if h/ she get education, h/she is disabled and there’s no point of getting education and with this, their education is neglected and this way the disabled people totally becomes illiterate.

Denial of Rights: Many disabled people are denied of their political, economic, religious and education right, on the ground that they are disabled. Looking to the states in north east India where the tribal people inherits the property, kingship of their father, which is the birth right of every son’s and daughter’s, but if the son/daughter happens to be disabled they are not considered worthy to inherit their father’s property or even those who are from the king’s lineage, a disabled son cannot inherit the throne because of h/ her disability. All their rights of inheritance are denied because of just being a disabled person.

Advocacy Strategies: While thinking of advocating the rights of persons with disabilities, here are some of the strategies that

Winter Sentiments

families are no exception.

The homeless and beggars exposing to cold in pavements and station platforms would bear through this cold bitten winter.

There are unfortunates who sleep on bare mats, or on shabby cloth to rest through the whole winter night solstice. Inaccessibility of resources and poor finances make some people neglect even to care the feeling of cold. For some people the season would be an additional economic burden. To think of this gives distress.

Markets would loom with different clothes; well designed dresses, garments, thicker woolens and footwears that are not affordable by all. The haves and haves-not will be portrayed reflecting our sadden society of inequality.

As winter approaches and breaks into fes-

tive mood, a well-to-do can afford whatever material comfort a season demands. Fashion lovers would throng the markets, gather at the shopping hub carrying obese wallets to use on latest fashion of their choice.

They would use thousands on furs to cope with the cold. The clothes of the children of rich families are magnificent; beds of the well-off family are glorious and comfortable. The sad fact is that the deprived children may see it and feel the desire to own such luxuries, which may lead to pressure on their parents and creating frustration to the family.

Being festive season there would be different social gatherings, different social activities, different programmes and services where all rich and poor would attend. The

should be considered by advocates.

Focus On Person/ Self-Advocacy Fo c u s o n p e r s o n means to focus first on the person he/she is, instead of his/her disabilities. It is the way to help the differently people recognise the value of themselves and not on their disabilities. It is also a way to encourage and supports people with disability to advocate on their own behalf to the extent possible, or on a one to one or group basis, it is the act of speaking out on one’s own behalf and is considered to be at the core of all types of activism. Self-advocates assert their right to make decisions about matters that affect their lives. Selfadvocacy begins with the belief that they are worthy, a feeling that may not come naturally to people with disabilities and therefore advocates need to put total focus on the disabled person so that they may first realise their self worthiness and stand for their own right before anyone could stand for them. The first advocacy step is to help the disabled person their value, their rights and their self worth.

Offer Training It is very important whether the cause is moral, ethical or faith driven, that everyone, without exception, understand the importance of advocacy for disabled and therefore seminars, trainings, retreats, should be conducted in the society, highlighting about needs of the disabled people and offer trainings that will also enable the trainees to advocate on someone’s behalf.

Offering seminars and training can be an effective tool of advocacy, as through this people will know more about disability needs, they will be provided basic knowledge and will be equipped so that they will become friends of disable without discriminating them.

Advocacy through Special Education The concept of Special education was introduced in the world through United state of America in the year 1975 where they made a policy named “education for all handicapped children” where the Government forced the rules upon all schools saying ‘all schools must educate all children with disabilities’.

Later in the year 1994 during the world conference on special needs education held in Salamanca the Government of Spain in co-operation

rich would wear their best clothes they have afforded but the poor, especially children and young seeing their friends, may feel down and they may withdraw socially, stop activities with their friends and would no longer enjoy things that used to be fun. It would lose fascination.

We do not have social set-up category that characterizes the rich who ought to help the needy unless he comes with his own charity. However, if you could have owned three things of warmth, give it one; and more, if you have more, you can be a blessing to needy people around you.

There are people who longs for a piece of cloth to wrap up their body.

May the coming up of this old guest of season be a warm and shared winter!

Bausha (Paüwüng), Longleng

with UNESCO declared ‘special education’ from national to all local level.

This education must taken up seriously by all public and governments officials even in our land with full regular government payments in order to keep the special education more effective.

Using literature Using literature as an advocacy strategy can be very effective for advocates as an English politician said ‘Pen is mightier than the sword’. Using pen and writing books and publishing it can easily speak to people’s heart.

One of the recent literature strategy that the special education committee has undertaken is using comics in order to educate the children about the disability rights, so literatures such as magazines, tracks, pamphlets, books, comics, can all play an important role in advocacy for disabled.

Advocacy through Mass Media Media advocacy is the strategy of promoting disabled rights and letting the people aware of the crisis, life situation and hardship that disabled people go through, it is way for fighting and standing for disabled people through Televisions, Internet, radio and newspaper by creating advertisement, disabled right promotional movies and even drama’s and serials. It is one of the strongest advocacy strategies in today’s world as we see the influence of mass media in every corner of the world.

Advocacy through mass media does three important things. First it will place attention on an issue by bringing it to light, second it holds the spotlight on the issue, and third it seeks to advance social or public initiatives as a primary approach to the problem.

The Role of Family and Friends as Advocates Friends and family often ask how they can help their loved one. There are obvious answers, like helping the disabled cope with their physical or mental limitations, or driving them to medical appointments but friends and family play an important role in helping Social Security understand the disabled person’s limitations.

It is a fact that doctors see the patient for fifteen minutes every few months but friends and family see them every day, friends and family can become their first strong advocates because they understand their disabled family mem-

ber more than any counsellor or advocates that comes from outside. It is therefore very important that the family member and friends of the disabled know their capability of becoming advocates and minister to the needs of their loved disable member of the family and advocate on their behalf by encouraging, caring, speaking of their needs and standing for their rights.

The Role of Christian Ministers as Advocates Christian Ministers as advocates can become the channel of blessing to many PWD’s in the society, the Christian minister may not involve in providing special education, may not offer trainings but the best things that the pastor can do is to equip the believers, by teaching through the word of God and equip and prepare the believers to do ministry towards the disabled and make the believers realise the rights of the disabled people. Secondly Christian ministers should inform the congregation after equipping them if there any needs of the disabled people he/she must inform the congregation to take action. Thirdly he/she should form an action team among the believers through whom he/she will execute all the plans made for disabled people.

Conclusion Disability as stated above is said to be at least ten percent in every country’s population and they are treated as persons who are unfortunate, cursed, and useless and therefore we need to change the thinking of the people by becoming an advocates of these group of people.

It is only through advocacy that the disabled people will gain self esteem and self courage to stand on their own feet, while on the other hand it will let the world know the truth that disabled people have a right to live and built their dream.

Advocacy therefore has become an important task for any counsellors or for any Christian ministry and all the caring ministries must take up this ministry of advocacy as not being an advocate of differently able people but with a feeling as an advocating for God and by understanding, that an advocacy for Christians is an outworking of obedience to God, a desire for justice and compassion for others.

Reader’s Post

On Souvenir books Sir,

This is concerning the declining quality of souvenir book that different organisations release on milestone events. The very concept of souvenir would lose its role if they are not meticulously prepared. It should not be taken lightly to be prepared haphazardly. It was disheartening to see some recent souvenir that just looked like some photo collage without names, role and description.

The poor quality stems from laziness and ignorance of the editorial board. In fact they are the first ones to be prominently featured on the pages. Leave alone article without proper editing. It does not augur well for the youngsters to look up the book. Quality should improve with every subsequent generation. If the editorial board are not expert in the page making process then they should seek help of professional experts and editors so that their organisation is not an embarrassment to others.

After all souvenirs remain for long not just in the local domain but others also try and flip the pages to see how far an organisation has achieved thus far.

5 police officers suspended over rape

The government on Friday assured in the SC that it will not take any criminal action for possessing demonetised notes beyond December 30, 2016. 1

Bhopal, Nov 3 (IANS): Five Madhya Pradesh police officers were on Friday suspended for dilly-dallying over registering an FIR on the complaint of a 19year-old woman who was allegedly gang-raped by four men in the state capital on Tuesday, a senior police officer said. The action followed a recommendation

to this effect in a report submitted by Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG) Sudhir Lad on the incident and the role of police personnel, who allegedly failed to act on the young woman’s complaint.

Taking serious note of the gang rape of the teen, whose parents are police personnel, Chief Minister

Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Friday held a meeting with senior police officers and ordered action against the errant officers.

Chouhan also ordered formation of a special investigation team (SIT) to probe the incident. The team will be headed by DIG Lad. Inspector General of Police (Law and Order) Makrand Deuskar told the media: “Officer In-charge of MP Nagar Police Station Sanjay Singh Bais, Habibganj Police Station In-charge Ravindra Yadav and In-charge of GRP Police Station of Habibgaj Railway Station Mohit Saxena have been suspended on charges of dereliction of duty.”

Two Sub Inspectors of MP Nagar and GRP police stations had also been suspended, and the Superintendent of Police

of MP Nagar area attached to the police headquarters, Deuskar said.

The victim, whose parents are police personnel themselves and posted in another city, was returning from coaching classes late on Tuesday evening when she was accosted by four inebriated persons near the Habibganj Railway Station who raped her for three hours.

Two city police stations kept dilly-dallying over registering of the FIR, saying the place of occurrence did not fall within their area. Finally, the case was registered two days after the incident. Two of the accused have been arrested.

The Congress on Friday launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister Chouhan over the gang rape and the subsequent delay in lodging of the FIR.

WhatsApp apologises for brief global outage

New Delhi, Nov 3 (IANS): WhatsApp users across the world, including in India, heaved a sigh of relief on Friday after the instant messaging app was restored after it went down globally, sending people into a tizzy. Users were able to send and receive messages and could log into their WhatsApp accounts after a brief outage period.

“Earlier today, WhatsApp users globally had trouble accessing the app for about an hour. This issue has been fixed and we apologise for the inconvenience,” a WhatsApp spokesperson told IANS. According to an Independent website DownDetector, 60 per cent of customers were having issues connected to Facebookowned WhatsApp. People experienced problems sending texts or were unable to log into the app.

Day 10 of NPF stir fails to elicit any response (From p-1) Fo r m e r M i s s N a galand said that justice would be delivered soon and the whole country would recognise that NPF in Nagaland stood tall and was one of the strongest parties in the country.

NPF central officer bearer (COB), Anungba Imsong, accused MP Lok Sabha Neiphiu Rio of being the root cause of the crisis. Recalling the court fight between Rio and TR

Zeliang on educational qualification, Imsong said such leaders who could lie even about their educational qualification cannot lead the Nagas.

NPF COB said that when Rio left the state to become MP in 2014, he gifted the state government with a deficit of Rs. 1234 crore.

Imsong said the man who wanted to swim in bigger ocean returned and was now looking for every

pond, trying to snatch away NPF and threatening to freeze the party symbol.

Further, he claimed that dissident members invited him to join their camp by offering money, contracts and vehicles.

However, Imsong said his decision was clear to stand by the party principles and integrity.

Ex-MLA, Asu Keyho, also spoke at the protest, which would continue on November 6.

3,500 VVPAT machines fail in EC test in Gujarat: Hardik Patel

Ahmedabad, Nov 3 (IANS): Patidar leader Hardik Patel on Friday said that over 3,500 VVPAT machines had “failed” in the first level test of the Election Commission, and alleged that the ruling BJP would indulge in “fraud” in the upcoming Gujarat elections.

“Over 3,550 VVPAT machines failed in the first level test of the Election Commission, and I can say with confidence that the BJP will indulge in fraud in Gujarat elections,” Patel said in a tweet.

On September 29, the Election Commission said that it will use Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail

(VVPAT) with Electronic Voting Machines (EVM) in all 50,128 voting booths in Gujarat.

Polls for the 182 assembly seats in Gujarat would be held on December 9 and 14. The results would be declared on December 18. The BJP is facing the ire of the Patidar community in Gujarat.

BDO office issue: KPO objects to KPU’s claims

E-Auction programme for sale of Railway scrap material under jurisdiction of Dy. CMM/D/New Bongaigaon, N.F. Railway for the month of November/2017 has EHHQ ¿[HG on 13-11-2017 & 2411-2017. Interested bidders are advised to bid through IREPS website (www.ireps.gov.in) for participation in e-auction.

ulterior motives.

Stating that both proposed sites fell within Chunlikha jurisdiction, KPO said the best available land convenient to all stakeholders was provided by the host village- the Kithagha group. “It is questionable as to how the Kandi Public Union (KPU), in its own terms, is trying to dictate the site selection and pressing the government to construct the office at the controversial inaugural site again,” KPO said.

Meanwhile, reacting the KPU’s claim that a private construction of BDO office was being undertaken at GHS Chunlikha compound, the KPO said it was “dumbstruck” by such a speculative statement. It said that ongoing construction was rather a developmental initiative being undertaken for the interest of Chunlikha range.

Also, on KPU’s claim that construction was being undertaken at GHS Chunlikha compound, the KPO said the said construction was clearly not located within the demarcated boundary of GHS Chunlikha, which it asserted could be clarified from the responsible department.

Fur ther, KPO also termed as “unfortunate and uncalled for” the calling of bandhs/agitations, which it said create inconvenience to the public in general and disturb the smooth functioning of the government at this juncture. “Rather, a constructive and progressive culture is encouraged for the peaceful coexistence and development of the society,” KPO remarked.

Besides, the KPO has

pointed out that as per work order Clause 15 the work should be completed within 6 months failing which the work order would be cancelled. However, it said even after a lapse of 13 months the work has not yet started.

It also expressed surprise that the department has released almost 50% of the work order amount during December 2016 even without commencement of the said work.

“It is questionable as to how the work order was issued when the controversy on selection of site is yet to be resolved and on what grounds an amount of Rs.7 lakh was released to the contractor without any sign of work being executed,” KPO questioned.

the issue alive for “political mileage” disturbing peaceful existence of not only RD block but also its functioning. Also, the KPO maintained that RD Block Chunlikha consisted of 13 villages of Northern Rengma with three groups/stakeholders -- Tesophenyu group (four villages), Kithagha group (three villages) and Kandi group (six villages).

“It is surprising why one group has suddenly started staking claim for construction of the said RD Block building at the controversial inaugural site,” KPO stated.

Asser ting that RD Block Chunlikha was approved by the government and was “clearly viable” at Chunlikha, the KPO said the question of shifting it to Tsonsa village did not arise at all unless it was guided by

DC-2575

(From p-1) However, KPO said a consensus could not be reached due to differences of opinion. For this, KPO said the Kithagha villages’ councils requested the government/department to postpone inaugural programme.

However, KPO claimed that “some leaders with vested interests” politicised the issue and the foundation stone was laid forcefully at the controversial site against the will of host villages - the Kithagha group.

Owing to those circumstances, KPO said Kithagha and Tesophenyu groups, which constituted a population of 18,388 having 3076 households, staged a protest rally during inaugural day on February 29, 2012 along NH-2 at Chunlikha headquarters and boycotted foundation-stone laying ceremony at Tsonsa Ketizhü.

KPO also pointed out that a prime land measuring 3 acres located around 300 metres away from NH-2 at Chunlikha belonging to Khankhu Magh was made readily available to the department through a deed of agreement (affidavit) for construction of permanent RD Block office building.

Accordingly, the organisation said GIS mapping was done and based on the documents/records, the department sanctioned post of Gr-IV against RD Block office Chunlikha was awarded to rightful land donor.

Stating that BDO Chunlikha office continued to function smoothly and peacefully at a temporary office at VDB multi-purpose building, Chunlikha since its establishment, the KPO, however, said that with general elections approaching, “some people with vested interests” have brought back

NEW DELHI, Nov 3 (PTI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday asserted that it is now easier to do business in India than ever before after the country leaped 30 places to break into top 100 nations worldwide.

The jump to 100th rank on this year’s World Bank Ease of Doing Business index, from last year’s 130, is the biggest by any country this year, he said while addressing the World Food India conference here.

India, he said, is one of fastest growing economies in the world and implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) from July 1 has eliminated multiplicity of taxes. The prime minister invited global companies to come and invest in the food process industry in India, saying it offers immense opportunity.

He made a point that more investment is required in contract farming, raw material sourcing and creating agricultural linkages.

There are opportunities in post-harvest management, Modi said, adding that there is immense potential for value addition in areas such as organic food.

India and South-East Asia is fast becoming the next battleground for these Chinese brands. A Chinese brand holds a top five ranking in each of these markets.

“During the quarter, the leading smartphone players grew faster in international markets than domestic markets. This indicates that leading smartphone players are now gearing up to target higher price points in a bid to position their devices as quality products in the minds of the consumers,” noted Research Analyst Shobhit Srivastava.

Samsung led the smartphone market by volume with a market share of 20.6 per cent in Q3 2017.

Its smartphone shipments recorded a growth of 9 per cent annually during the quarter.

Apple shipments grew 3 per cent annually in Q3 2017, reaching 46.7 million units globally.

Xiaomi emerged as the fastest growing brand YoY (over 81 per cent) driven by strong sales in both China and India.

New Delhi, Nov 3 (IANS): With global smartphone shipments reaching a record 400 million units in the third quarter this year, the top 10 players have captured 75 per cent of the market, leaving just a quarter for the remaining over 600 brands to compete in, new research said on Friday.

According to Counterpoint Research’s “Market Monitor” service, global smartphone shipments grew 5 per cent (Year-onYear) in the third quarter.

Chinese brands Xiaomi, Vivo, OPPO and Huawei remained the fastest growing smartphone brands. Samsung, Apple and LG also showed growth during the quarter.

“The global smartphone market continues to grow in single digits driven by growth in emerging markets. In such a scenario, we have seen key hardware differentiators proliferate to lower price points at much faster rates,” said Jeff Fieldhack, Research Director at Counterpoint Research, in a statement.

“In addition, the increasing share of leading brands is putting additional pressure on smaller brands which can lead to consolidation in some of the OEM-crowded regions going forward,” he said.

Washington, Nov 3 (PTI): President Donald Trump has tapped Jerome Powell to lead the Federal Reserve, denying Janet Yellen a second term, as he voiced confidence that the fellow Republican would be able to guide the world’s largest economy through “any challenges” with his wisdom and leadership.

Powell, 64, will replace Yellen, who was nominated

by Trump’s predecessor Barack Obama in 2013.

Her term as the US central bank’s first female leader expires in February. “I am confident that with Jay as a wise steward of the Federal Reserve, it will have the leadership it needs in the years to come,” Trump said at a White House press conference.

said. It will be the first time in four decades that a new president has not asked the current Fed chair to stay on for a second term.

Trump said that he respected Yellen and called the 71- year-old “a wonderful woman who has done a terrific job.”

The Fed under Yellen’s leadership has sharply reduced unemployment while maintaining control of inflation, coming as close to achieving its congressional mandate as at any time in its history.

If confirmed by the Senate, Powell will put his considerable talents and experience to work, leading US’s independent central bank, which has the critical responsibility to set monetary policy and monitor our banking system as a whole, the president said.

Powell, a Republican and multi-millionaire, has served on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors since 2012. He has consistently voted with Yellen to slowly raise interest rates and sell off assets that the Fed bought up in the wake of the severe recession of 2008 and 2009, indicating that he is expected to continue with the current monetary policy.

Saipov managed to kill eight people and injure more than 12 others before he was shot by a police officer and taken into custody. Inside the rented truck, investigators recovered a note written in Arabic pledging allegiance to the Islamic State.

It was the deadliest terrorist attack in New York since terrorists rammed hijacked airplanes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001.

Although the group provided no evidence to back its claim, CNN reported that the Islamic State claimed via its al-Naba newsletter that “One of the Islamic State soldiers in America attacked on Tuesday a number of crusaders on a street in New York City.”

Tehran, Nov 3 (IANS): Iran on Friday accused the CIA of spreading “fake news” about Tehrans support to the Al Qaeda, describing the claims as an attempt to “whitewash” the truth about the role US allies had in the September 11, 2001 attacks. “A record low for the reach of petrodollars: CIA & FDD fake news w/ selective Al Qaeda docs re: Iran can’t whitewash role of US allies in 9/11,” Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif wrote on his Twitter account on Friday.

Zarif posted the tweet after the release of a 19-page Al Qaeda report in Arabic, which claimed Iran supported the extremist group before the 9/11 attacks.

The document, part of nearly 47,000 documents released by the CIA, quoted the group’s slain leader Osama bin Laden as saying: “Anyone who wants to strike America, Iran is ready to support him and help him with their frank and clear rhetoric.” It claimed that Iran and Al Qaeda could overlook their differences and join forces when it came to confronting the US. The US government’s 9/11 Commission has made similar allegations, saying Iranian officials met Al Qaeda leaders in Sudan in either 1991 or early 1992.

The man wanted for what appears to be a random killing spree at a Colorado Walmart was arrested Thursday after an hourslong manhunt.

The suspect, identified as 47-year-old Scott Ostrem, was taken into custody this morning, according to the Thornton Police Department, reported ABC news.

Two men and one woman were killed in the shooting.

The victims are Denver residents Pamela Marques, 52, and Victor Vasquez, 26, and Thornton resident Carlos Moreno, 66, according to the Adams-Broomfield County coroner.

Ostrem allegedly walked in the front door of the store in the Denver suburb of Thornton and opened fire, targeting people in the front of the store near the registers. He then exited the store, got into a red Mitsubishi Mirage and fled the scene, police said after reviewing security footage from the store. The motive for the shooting remained unclear. Court documents reveal that Ostrem has a history of arrests and financial problems.

Moscow’s military involvement in the Syrian war since 2015 has propped up President Bashar Assad’s forces and turned the conflict in his favor, while Russian mediation earlier this year launched cease-fire talks in Astana, Kazakhstan.

The talks, sponsored jointly with Iran and Turkey, have brokered local deals that have significantly reduced violence in the wartorn country.

“Army units, in cooperation with allied forces, liberated the city of Deir al-Zour completely from the Daesh terrorist organization,” the military statement said, using the Arabic name for IS.

WASHINGTON, Nov 3 (Agencies): The Islamic State “will pay a big price for every attack on us,” President Donald Trump declared on Twitter Friday morning, a response to the militant group’s claim that the driver who killed eight people in New York City by running them over with a truck earlier this week is a “soldier of the caliphate.”

“ISIS just claimed the Degenerate Animal who killed, and so badly wounded, the wonderful people on the West Side, was ‘their soldier,’” Trump wrote on Twitter.

“Based on that, the Military has hit ISIS ‘much harder’ over the last two days. They will pay a big price for every attack on us!”

In brief comments to reporters Friday before embarking on his 12-day trip to Asia, Trump said “we are hitting them 10 times harder,” when asked about ISIS. Police on Wednesday said Sayfullo Saipov, the 29year-old Uzbekistan native alleged to have driven a rented truck down a crowded bike path in New York this week, carried out his attack following guidance published by the Islamic State.

(Agencies): The Syrian army announced Friday it liberated the long-contested eastern city of Deir elZour from the Islamic State group, a largely symbolic victory in the military’s bigger fight to capture the last remaining IS strongholds in the oil-rich province along the border with Iraq.

In a statement, the military said it was now in full control of the city, after a weeks-long campaign carried out with allied forces. It said army units were now removing booby traps and mines left behind by the extremist group in the city.

Deir el-Zour, on the west bank of the Euphrates River, had been divided into a government-held and an IS-held part for nearly three years.

Syrian government forces and their pro-government allies first broke the militant group’s siege of their part of the city in September in a Russian-backed offensive, and have been advancing against IS positions since then. The city is the largest in eastern Syria and the capital of the province with the same name.

The development is the latest significant defeat for IS as the militant group sees its self-proclaimed “caliphate” crumble and lose

David Marcus, Executive VP and Head of Music at Ticketmaster, explained more about the system in an interview with Billboard.

“Fans register with Verified Fan two to three weeks before tickets go on sale. That gives us a chance to slow the huge rush that takes place when we open the doors and put tickets on sale.

“Verified Fan allows us to weed out bad actors and know exactly how many people want to buy tickets.” Arthur Fogel, from promoter Live Nation, told the publication that U2 are utilising Ticketmaster’s system due to the “justified outcry of brokers and bots scooping up a fair amount of tickets.

“I think every artist wants their tickets getting into the hands of real fans,” he said. “When you look at what’s happening in the industry and why people are doing Verified Fan, it makes complete sense for U2. There is a very limited amount of inventory and demand will exceed supply.”

IAAF to introduce rankings in 2018

L O N D O N, N ov 3 (Agencies): Athletics is to introduce a world rankings system in 2018 as part of a widespread effort to bring some sense and shape to its currently nebulous calendar, and continue to move away from the sport’s scandalhit past.

The introduction of the rankings in partnership with All Athletics, announced on Friday, is part of a sweeping reform package that was voted in by the IAAF last December to change the way the sport’s governing body operates.

The rankings will be a point-based system in which athletes collect points across different levels of meet throughout the season to determine qualification for premier competitions such as the O ly m p i c s a n d Wo r l d Championships.

It is also hoped that the introduction of the

rankings will bring some focus to the Diamond League, where currently leading athletes often do not compete against each other, leaving fans feeling short-changed and often confused.

International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) President Seb Coe has made no secret of his frustration with many aspects of the Diamond League’s current format and is desperate to reform it.

When it comes to major championships, athletes are currently selected by their national associations, if they achieve a qualifica-

Thiem worried about speed of court at ATP Finals

Dominic Thiem

L ondon , N o v 3 (Agencies): Dominic Thiem admits he is concerned about the speed of the court at London’s O2 ahead of the ATP Finals, but is looking forward to the challenge.

The 24-year-old Austrian lifted the Rio Open trophy earlier in the season and also enjoyed a successful clay-court campaign

which culminated in a second consecutive semi-final berth at the French Open.

But it is Thiem’s record on indoor hard which is his concern ahead of the season-ending extravaganza at the O2 Arena, where the speed of the court is notoriously fast.

His best effort on indoor hard this season is a quarter-final appearance at the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam, and was dumped out of the Paris Masters in the last 16 by veteran Spaniard Fernando Verdasco.

But Thiem is determined to showcase his improvement which has seen him climb to a careerhigh No 6.

“The IAAF World Rankings will drive and shape the global competition system including entry into the World Championships and Olympic Games,” Coe said in a statement.

“For the first time in the sport’s history, athletes, media and fans will have a clear understanding of the hierarchy of competitions... allowing them to follow a logical seasonlong path to the pinnacle of Athletics’ top two competitions.”

The athletes’ position in the rankings will be determined by various perfor-

mance aspects along with the level of competition they are participating in.

The points system for each event along with other details related to the rankings will be finalised in the first quarter of 2018, meaning the new system can be applied for qualification into the 2019 World Championships and the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

The sport’s governing body will also establish a new department named IAAF Heritage to use athletics’ history, drive understanding of the sport and promote it around the world.

“The Rankings will bring much needed clarity to what is today a confusing competition picture even for those from within the sport, while Heritage will be an important tool to help inform, inspire and engage interest through the extraordinarily story of Athletics,” IAAF CEO Olivier Gers said.

S Y D N E Y, N o v 3 (Agencies): Australia skipper Steve Smith on Friday rubbished claims he favours his “mates” as selection looms for the highly anticipated Ashes Test series with England.

Smith is not part of Australia’s three-man selection panel, but he has been assailed by former players who believe he gets too much say in Australia’s lineups.

The captain hit back strongly at a media conference in Sydney, calling suggestions of favouritism “absolute garbage”.

“I’m not a selector, but I certainly speak to the selectors a lot and express

“All this rubbish about me picking my mates, it’s absolute garbage. I certainly don’t agree with that.”

K aka m i g a h a r a , Nov 3 (IANS): India set their date with China in the final of the 9th women’s Asia Cup after beating hosts Japan 4-2 in the semi-final here on Friday.

The Indian eves rode on a brace from Gurjit Kaur and field goals from Navjot Kaur and Lalremsiami to advance to a fourth Asia Cup final. India won the title in

2004 and finished runnersup in 1999 and 2009.

Gurjit gave India a perfect start, successfully converting a penalty corner in the seventh minute before Navjot’s field goal in the ninth minute made it 2-0 for the tourists. In the same minute, Gurjit inflated India’s lead to 3-0 with a brilliant field goal.

But Japan was no push-

over. It managed to dominate the Indians in the second quarter and reduced the deficit to 2-3 through field goals from Shiho Tsujii (17’) and Yui Ishibashi (28’).

The third quarter saw Lalremsiami score her first goal of the tournament to put India ahead 4-2, and the defenders did well to keep the Japanese at bay thereon.

Buenos Aires, Nov 3 (IANS): Gonzalo Higuain’s absence from Argentina’s national team continued when the Juventus striker was left out of Jorge Sampaoli’s squad for friendlies against Russia and Nigeria.

But there was a recall for Roma winger Diego Perotti while uncapped Boca Juniors forward Cristian Pavon was also included on Thursday, reports Xinhua news agency.

Despite his prolific form at the club level, Higuain has yet to play a competitive fixture under Sampaoli, who was appointed Argentina coach on June 1.

The 29-year-old has netted four goals in his past three matches for Juventus.

Perotti, who made his international debut in 2009, has not represented his country since June 2011 with a series of injuries. But he has regained his fitness and best form for the Giallorossi in the Italian Serie A this season.

Arsenal enter Europa knockout stage

winning goal seemed increasingly unlikely, particularly after Theo Walcott squandered two openings.

Red Star had been quiet in the second-half, retreating further into their shape, though Boakye was again handed a chance and again snatched at his effort, driving a left-footed shot wide.

That proved to be the final chance of the game, both sides settling for a welcome point each.

Everton crash out

Olivier Giroud attempts to break the deadlock with a shot from inside the Red Star Belgrade penalty area.

L ondon , N ov 3 (Agencies): Arsenal secured their qualification from Group H in the Europa League with two games to spare, despite a drab goalless draw against Red Star Belgrade at the Emirates.

An underwhelming and fairly uneventful firsthalf ended with the visitors on top, and they twice came close to taking the lead before the break.

The Gunners’ best chances fell to Olivier Giroud and Jack Wilshere, but there was no way through against the resolute Serbian side.

After a fairly laboured start to the game, it was Arsenal’s Giroud who had the first notable opportunity, bringing a save from Milan Borjan with an effort

from close range having been played in by Ainsley Maitland-Niles.

There was a lack of urgency in the hosts’ attacking play, though, perhaps understandable given their comfortable position at the top of the group.

The lethargy on the pitch in an uninspiring, disorderly first-half translated to the stands; there was a feeling that the game was a formality, and there had been very little to enthuse the home supporters.

Red Star, meanwhile, had been relatively innocuous in attack, seemingly content to leave with a point, although they came close ten minutes before the break when Matt Macey was required to tip a Vujadin Savic header onto the bar.

And moments before half-time - sensing an opportunity to take advantage of an insipid Arsenal display - they were nearly ahead again, Richmond Boakye racing clean through only to skew his finish wide.

There was more impetus from the home side after the break, but there remained an absence of cutting edge and creativity.

Wilshere came close to giving Arsenal the lead just after the hour mark, however, lifting his finish cutely over the goalkeeper only to be denied by a superbly acrobatic clearance off the line from Damien le Tallec.

Arsene Wenger’s side had upped the tempo, but as the half progressed a

Everton were among the first teams to be eliminated from the Europa League group stage after losing 3-0 to Lyon on Thursday.

Managerless Everton’s recent woes continued as Cuco Martina was taken off on a stretcher with an unspecified injury minutes before half-time.

Bertrand Traore then scored on a second-half counter-attack and Houssem Aouar added a second for the French side, while Everton’s hopes of a comeback ended when Morgan Schneiderlin was sent off with a second booking in the 80th minute.

Former Manchester United winger Memphis Depay added a late third from a header to complete Lyon’s win.

The Premier League club have only gained a single point from the four European games - a draw with Apollon in September.

L ondon , N ov 3 (IANS): English winger Demarai Gray signed a contract extension that will keep him at Leicester City until 2021, the English Premier League side announced.

The 21-year-old Gray has been negotiating with the Foxes during the last months, reports Efe. “I’m very happy. I just want to kick on and keep doing what I’m doing. I want to be starting games and, for me to be doing that, I have to work hard in training,” Gray told Leicester’s website on Thursday.

New Delhi, Nov 3 (Agencies): A Delhi court has ordered an FIR against Sharapova after a luxury housing project buyer in Gurugram filed a complaint that the project, which is endorsed by the Russian, never took off.

The court of chief metropolitan magistrate in North West Delhi has named Sharapova in the complaint list and has ordered an FIR against her and the companies Homestead Infrastructure Development Private Limited, Homestead Infrastructure Maintenance Private Limited and Homestead Arabic Homes Private and its directors.

A Moneycontrol report says that the homebuyer, Bhawana Agarwal (44), filed a complaint through her lawyer Piyush Singh and informed the

Maria Sharapova

court that the builders attracted buyers by advertising the project as ‘Ballet by Sharapova’.

“The project was to be completed within three years from the first payment in the year 2013, however, the respondent have failed to start any construction or development work even after three years from the date of the booking ie 12.4.2013.

As per the agreement, the complete possession was to be handed over to the complainant on 12.4.2013.

It is stated that complainant has now got to know that the accused did not even have the necessary approval, permissions or sanctions to start the project and it was premeditated conspiracy to collect money from innocent buyers,” the complaint states.

“If the averments of the complainant are to be believed, it shows that nothing has happened on the said project and alleged persons have no license or sanction for construction or development at the project, for which the complainant paid Rs 53.03 lakh.”

It is observed here that collection of evidence on the given facts is certainly beyond the control of the

complainant. Hence, police investigation is required in the present case to unearth the real facts as to whether the company has taken any steps to handover the possession of the flat to the complainant,” the court, presided by Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Rajesh Malik, observed.

Sharapova, a five-time Grand Slam champion, returned to action in April 2017 after serving a 15month ban following a failed drug test from the 2016 Australian Open.

It will be yet another unpleasant India experience for Sharapova. In 2014, Sharapova incurred the wrath of Indian fans after she revealed that she has no idea who Sachin Tendulkar is. Outraged fans of the batting great filled her Facebook page with aggressive remarks.
