and 64 for the saffron alliance and the Congress-NCP in Maharashtra. In 2014 the BJP and the Sena had won 122 seats and 63 seats respectively followed by 42 and 41 seats by the Congress and the NCP.

60.46 pc voting in Maharashtra polls

Maharashtra Assembly elections held on Monday saw a voter turnout of 60.46 per cent till the closing hour of 6 pm, election officials said here. The final figure of polling could increase and it will be available on Tuesday, officials said. In the last assembly election in 2014, the state had

oncologists and urologists too, besides one specialist each in nuclear medicine and immuno-hematology. The NMC president further emphasised that doctors must give enough time to patients, listen to them and explain their illness to them in detail. She, however, regretted that majority of the doctors today did not give enough time to their patients nor understood them, especially the poor and uneducated, which often led to miscommunication and fear among the latter. She remarked many doctors took their responsibilities very casually and somehow wanted to finish their official duties, whereas the patients who hardly understood considered their ailments as something terrible, often leading to anxiety and distress among them. On the allegation that many government doctors

Haryana records 65%

Haryana on Monday recorded a voter turnout of 65 per cent in the assembly polls, a sharp drop from the 2014 elections which brought the BJP to power in the state.

But they maintained that polling over the 90 assembly constituencies was largely peaceful.

continued to practise in private nursing homes after attending morning duties and even after availing non-practising allowances, Joyce observed that their conscience perhaps allowed them to do so. Calling for stopping this practice, she reminded such doctors that they were robbing the government. She also urged the State government to revamp the Nagaland Health Care Establishment Act for streamlining many things. Dr. Joyce asserted that NMC was committed to work with diligence and in fairness by using the same yardstick for all practitioners of modern medicine in the State irrespective of their tribal, caste, political or bureaucratic affiliations. NMC, a statutory body that has direct linkage with Medical Council of India, was constituted by the State government in 2014.

In a statement, NDPP Media & Communication Committee, termed the NPF’s allegations as “absurd and ridiculous” adding they were “irresponsible utterances” and “absolutely reprehensible” coming from a matured political party like the NPF. NDPP pointed out that it including its party government are not parties to the ongoing dialogue as talks have always been left to the negotiating parties for working out a “mutually acceptable formula, that is honourable, democratic and long-lasting.” NDPP said on its part, it has been making all out efforts to act as an active facilitator and cited the continuous deliberations between the chief minister, members of the cabinet and elected members including consultations with all sections of stakeholders. NDPP also said it has been holding consultations with members of the PDA coalition and that it (NDPP) had never shied away from shouldering its responsibilities in any manner. Further, NDPP said the of-

Nagaland observes Police Commemoration Day Correspondent

KOHIMA, OCT 21 (NPN): Nagaland police joined the rest of the country in observing the Police Commemoration Day by remembering the sacrifices of policemen in line of duty at a function held at New Police Reserve, Tennis Court, Phesama here on Monday. On October 21, 1959, CRPF scripted a saga of valour and sacrifice in the snow-laden, inaccessible, inhospitable terrain of Hot Springs in Ladakh. A patrol party of 20 CRPF personnel and Intelligence Bureau had gone to search for a missing reconnaissance party when it was ambushed by PLA (Chinese Army). In spite of the sudden attack and disadvantageous tactical position, they fought valiantly against the Chinese army personnel who were in large numbers and heavily armed. In this

battle, ten CRPF men were martyred in defence of the country. Since then, Police Commemoration Day is observed on October 21 every year to honour the loyalty and supreme sacrifice of police personnel for the nation.

Led by DGP Nagaland, John Longkumer, police officers and paramilitary personnel laid wreaths and paid homage to the brave and courageous policemen who have laid down their lives. In his address, Longkumer reminded that the duty of a

policeman required a lot of sacrifice to ensure that the society was safe. He said on daily basis policemen combat antisocials, terrorists and disruptive forces that threaten to tear nation from the inside, but the sacrifice of a human life was the supreme sacrifice. DGP reminded that Nagaland police personnel have also made such supreme sacrifice and have lost many precious lives both at home and outside in the states like Chhattisgarth and West Bengal. He said the courage and sacrifice of those martyrs would always be remembered by the department and also by those they died protecting. He said that altogether 292 policemen all over India have laid down their lives in the service of the nation this year alone. (Cont’d on p-7)

ficial party delegation led by the chief minister and party president had called on the governor to deliberate on the prevailing political scenario and also assured the Interlocutor of the party’s support for talks and for an early and honourable solution. NDPP also said PDA leaders led by the chief minister and NDPP leaders have been holding consultations with negotiating parties and representatives of the government of India for finding ways to create a congenial atmosphere for positive progress of the talks. Instead, NDPP asked what has the NPF done, besides issuing “venomous press statements filled with personalised attacks?”Asking if it was not time to put Naga political issue above everything, NDPP advised NPF to “wake up the these realities.” Further, NDPP reminded that demands of negotiating parties have been clearly spelt out to the people and neither it nor PDA and state government were directly part of the ongoing negotiations. Therefore, NDPP said there was no question of any of the above, “giving conditions or suggestions on the competencies of the solution.” Asking NPF, which claimed it was a mature political party not to confuse the minds of the people

with “ its habitual lies and false convictions”, NDPP reiterated its support for the principle of the Framework Agreement and an early resolution of the decadesold Naga political issue in any manner that was honourable and democratic and which respects the “unique history of Nagas.” As the Naga political issue was above all, NDPP said NPF should stop “ its habitual lying leaders” by refraining from using the issue in order to score “cheap political points”. Instead, NDPP said all sections of Naga society should work collectively in order to achieve an early and honourable political solution. It asked why NPF had “suddenly woken up from its slumber and making such political statements by immorally using the Naga political issue for its selfish purposes?” Urging NPF to stop using the issue of political brownie points over a crucial matter for Nagas and all future generations, NDPP asked NPF instead, to come forward with a positive attitude “without their baggage of ill-will and vested interests.” It also made a clarion call on all Nagas to continue upholding the ongoing negotiations through prayers as talks have now reached an extremely crucial stage that will determine the future of Naga generations.

NEW DELHI, OCT 21 (PTI): The Union government will undertake timebound steps to ensure that good working environment, health and family welfare related concerns of police personnel are addressed, Home Minister Amit Shah said on Monday. Addressing a joint column of police and paramilitary personnel after paying homage to police martyrs, Shah said India’s stride into the world as a powerful nation is ensured by the work of these men and women in khaki who render dedicated national service. The minister said the police is doing an onerous task as against the benchmark 222 personnel for 1 lakh citizens, only 144 are present on the ground. This is the reason why about 90 per cent of police personnel have to render duties of over 12 hours each day and about three-fourth of them cannot even take a weekly off, he said. “My government has done a lot for police welfare and I can assure that we will be doing more work, taking more steps to ensure health, housing, family welfare and a good working environment

Shah said that on the occasion of the police commemoration day, he and the citizens of the country pay a humble tribute to those who have made the supreme sacrifice in the line of duty, as also their families. “When we see police

work in a normal way, it looks usual but when we change the perspective we understand that the development strides our country is taking is due to the dedicate and silent service of these policemen,” Shah said.

es are responsible for ensuring a strong position and the identity of an emerging power for India in the comity of nations. “I can assure the police personnel that this memorial will become an institution that will tell the world about the tale of valour of the police personnel of the country, he said. As per latest data, over 35,000 police personnel

have been killed in action since independence and during the last about one year time (September, 2018 to August this year) a total of 292 personnel have laid down their lives or died due to unnatural reasons while on duty. During the event, attended by chiefs and officials of Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) and other central police organisations, Shah launched a new website of the national police memorial. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had, this day last year, inaugurated the refurbished national police memorial, including a newly built museum of these forces in khaki. The memorial is a 30foot-tall and 238-tonne black granite structure located in central Delhi’s Chanakyapuri area. The day is observed to pay homage to 10 policemen (of the CRPF) killed in an ambush by Chinese troops in 1959 in Ladakh’s Hot Spring area. A ceremonial guard of honour by a joint squad of CAPFs was presented during the about 45 minute event.

NEW DELHI, OCT 21 (PTI): Japan may extend a special recruitment programme to the Northeast under which residents of the region will be offered nursing jobs in that country. This was conveyed by outgoing Ambassador of Japan Kenji Hiramatsu to Union Minister for Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER) Jitendra Singh here on Monday, an official statement said. During the meeting, the minister discussed various projects being undertaken in Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh and Northeastern region under Japanese assistance. Singh mentioned about the training of Nursing Care Workers (NCW) under the Technical Intern Training Programme (TITP), through which 12 candidates from Jammu have already been selected by Japanese companies for jobs in that country. The Ambassador assured to extend TITP programme in the Northeastern region with participation of government of Japan, the statement said.

The minister proposed that, in future, 100 students can be taken under TITP programme from Ladakh as well, with 50 each from Leh and Kargil respectively. The Japanese Ambassador has spent about three years and 11 months in India and his tenure witnessed unprecedented transformation of India-Japan relationship under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, it said. The minister said a huge headway has been made in the level of collaboration in various fields such as bullet trains, nuclear, space technology and railways. Singh said Japan shares emotional and historical relations with India, especially in the Northeast. He said Japan has specialisation in food processing units and there is huge potential for opening specialised food parks for apples, cherry, strawberry in Jammu and Kashmir and berry in Ladakh, on the lines of citrus fruit parks in Northeast. Singh said substantial engagement and investment

has been done by Japan in the Northeast under the Modi government, specially in Manipur. The minister congratulated the Japanese Ambassador for his successful tenure in India and his contribution towards realisation of the vision of the two leaders. He said Hiramatsu’s tenure saw some major achievements, such as conclusion of a bilateral Nuclear Deal (December, 2016), establishment of Digital and Health Partnerships (October, 2018), agreement on commencement of Acquisition and Cross-Servicing Agreement (ACSA) negotiations (October, 2018), agreement on Japanese Language Education in India and Disaster Risk Reduction (September, 2017), the statement said. The minister particularly thanked the Ambassador for his contribution in establishment of the India-Japan Act East Forum which is an important mechanism for synergising India’s ‘Act East Policy’ and Japan’s ‘Free and Open Indo-Pacific Strategy’.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Kartarpur Corridor

New Delhi, Oct 21 (AGENCIES): India on Monday announced it conveyed to Pakistan willingness to sign on October 23, the agreement on Kartarpur Corridor. While doing so, the government also asked Islamabad to reconsider its insistence to levy US$ 20 service fee on pilgrims per visit. The government, the Ministry of External Affairs said, has taken the initiative to put in place the state-ofthe-art infrastructure and open the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor on the auspicious occasion of the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev so that the pilgrims from India and those holding Overseas Citizen of India Card can undertake visit to the holy Gurdwara Kartarpur Sahib in Pakistan. “It is a matter of disappointment that while understanding has been reached on most of the elements for facilitating the visit of pilgrims from India, Paki-

stan continues to insist on levying a service fee of USD 20 per pilgrim per visit. The government has consistently urged Pakistan that in deference to the wishes of the pilgrims, it should not levy such a fee,” the Ministry said in a release. In view of the long pending demand of the pilgrims to have visa free access to Gurdwara Kartarpur Sahib and in the interest of operationalisation of the corridor in time before the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak falling on November 12, the government has today conveyed that “we would be ready to sign the agreement on Kartarpur Sahib Corridor on October 23”. “While agreeing to sign the agreement, the government of Pakistan has been once again urged to reconsider its insistence to levy service fee on pilgrims. India would be ready to amend the agreement accordingly at any time,” it said.

Vol. XXIX NO. 316 Dimapur, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 2019

For the solution

t was a relief that the Public Action Committee (PAC) under the aegis of Naga Council Dimapur (NCD) had decided to suspend its plan for the indefinite bandh that was to take effect from October 19. The indefinite bandh would have caused untold problems besides causing huge economic loss to the struggling economy. The PAC was believed to be not satisfied with the composition of the District Price Regulation Committee (DPRC) to regulate and monitor prices of various commodities. According to PAC, it had decided to suspend its proposed indefinite bandh in view of posting of a new incumbent as DC Dimapur. According to PAC, at a recent briefing, a trucker has to pay around Rs.40,000 to pass through Dimapur check gate from Guwahati whereas the actual rate is around Rs.19,000. Over and above around half a dozen factions also collecting taxes, even government departments such as forest and geology & mining, excise, taxes, DMC etc were also collecting taxes at random. There were also as many as nine unions, mostly truck union etc that charge various amount of money from each truck as membership fee. Even several government departments are also accused of collecting unauthorised taxes or collecting more than permitted. Such rampant collection of taxes have pushed prices of every items well beyond their reasonable limit. These collections are responsible for sky rocketing prices of every item or commodity that passes through the Nagaland gates which invariably, the end-used, the public have to bear. In addition to these activities which the business organizations have highlighted several times in the past for which they had even resorted to shut down; there are other forms such as ‘house/building tax’ and ‘household tax’ imposed by outfits and collected at various wards and colonies. Even if there are organizations working for the public, it needs to be understood that such works are voluntary and that the public cannot be subject to their financial requirements. The PAC has begun the drive against illegal, unabated and unauthorised gate collections but there are still miles to go. With the likelihood a solution to the Naga political issue, there is also hopes that multiple collections and syndication of markets will also cease. It is undoubted that rampant tax collection in Nagaland and Dimapur in particular, has become the biggest hurdle for development and people of Nagaland are eagerly hoping that one day all these will be a thing of the past. The saying that extortion is the biggest cottage industry in the north east, is unfortunately true, in most states barring Assam, Meghalaya, Mizoram and Tripura. Extortion is a bane on development since it exposes the ineffectiveness of any government and also gives a bag signal to would-be investors. These unauthorised and unabated collections are unchallenged offences which only reveal signs of erosion of authority as well as the heralding of an era of unhealthy environment. Visions and hopes of economic prosperity are being hijacked mid-way and therein lies the malady which the much heralded solution is expected to be a deliverance. Those who have been making hay by collecting taxes have to realise that such activities will also destroy their upcoming generations. On the part of the state government, is has to set up a commission to suggest permanent remedies, so that people can live peacefully, freely and purposefully.

Impulsiveness or Discipleship?

But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith… —Jude 20 There was nothing of the nature of impulsive or thoughtless action about our Lord, but only a calm strength that never got into a panic. Most of us develop our Christianity along the lines of our own nature, not along the lines of God’s nature. Impulsiveness is a trait of the natural life, and our Lord always ignores it, because it hinders the development of the life of a disciple. Watch how the Spirit of God gives a sense of restraint to impulsiveness, suddenly bringing us a feeling of self-conscious foolishness, which makes us instantly want to vindicate ourselves. Impulsiveness is all right in a child, but is disastrous in a man or woman— an impulsive adult is always a spoiled person. Impulsiveness needs to be trained into intuition through discipline. Discipleship is built entirely on the supernatural grace of God. Walking on water is easy to someone with impulsive boldness, but walking on dry land as a disciple of Jesus Christ is something altogether different. Peter walked on the water to go to Jesus, but he “followed Him at a distance” on dry land (Mark 14:54). We do not need the grace of God to withstand crises— human nature and pride are sufficient for us to face the stress and strain magnificently. But it does require the supernatural grace of God to live twenty-four hours of every day as a saint, going through drudgery, and living an ordinary, unnoticed, and ignored existence as a disciple of Jesus. It is ingrained in us that we have to do exceptional things for God— but we do not. We have to be exceptional in the ordinary things of life, and holy on the ordinary streets, among ordinary people— and this is not learned in five minutes.

Japfu Ultimatum: Kohima: 18-10-2019

.N. Ravi...the Interlocutor Governor of Nagaland called for a consultative meeting of all the 14 Apex Tribal Hohos of Nagaland along with other Civil Societies... on the 18-10-2019...at 2.30 pm at the Conference Hall of Japfu Hotel, Kohima... the Capitol of Nagaland. In the eyes of the International Community, this day, 18-10-2019, could be logged as a “Historic Day” or a “Day of Infamy”, for the confused Nagas being tantalized in fluent English language to swim in blood all over again...by India. What could happen next... IF India chooses to take its future action based on the so-called ‘mandate’ of this un-mandated meeting... is going to determine the fate of the common man of Nagaland for no fault of HIS at all...because... the insignificant ‘common man’ who is actually ‘the stakeholder’...has not been consulted by their respective Tribal Hoho Presidents...who vehemently believe that they have the right and full authority to decide the future of their respective Tribes, by virtue of their position as an elected President...in the very identical manner that NCSN (I-M) and other NNPGs think that they can decide the fate and the destiny of the real stakeholders without consulting them! The wonder of wonders is that this ‘common man’ has made it explicitly clear that since the subject concerns their very own immediate and intimate destiny including their posterity...being reviewed... “the powers that be” have an inalienable obligation to directly consult the stakeholders before the final verdict is sounded by their leaders on their behalf! With a cheerful countenance the Governor of Nagaland and Interlocutor, first made it known that other likely dissenting civil

organizations like UNC of Manipur NSF, NMA etc. were also invited but had declined their attendance giving their excuses...just so as to first paint a picture of open-minded fairness and fair-play on the part of the GoI. Mr. R.N Ravi (hereafter RNR for referential convenience) conducted this meeting as the Interlocutor...with the Governor of Nagaland visibly lurking within a legitimate background. Citing his past interaction and experience with various Civil Societies as an Interlocutor... RNR came to this meeting with a predetermined conclusion that Nagas are incapable of a united voice! That indeed is a true perception of an Indian to the letter! The “Framework Agreement” of 3rd August 2015 that has been under wraps for so long, along with the other equally secretive ‘preamble’ of a similar nature signed with the 6 NNPG Working group on 17th Nov. 2017, was repeatedly read out verbatim in this meeting. For the very first time the GoI, the NSCN (IM) and the 7 NNPG Working Group has been making their respective effort to openly reveal the content of these “Framework agreement”/ “preamble” and “competencies” to the stakeholders...Why? Each sector: GoI/NSCN (I-M)/& NNPG Working Group (WG), wants to establish some level of legitimacy of their respective points of view and action to the international community in order to avoid accountability when the shit hits the fan. As for the average common Naga, (the stakeholders) who perhaps has less educated comprehension or understanding of the complexities and intricacies of Indo-Naga political jigsaw puzzle...other than react against the vexatious payment of unbridled tax to 9

NNPG Factions because AK 47 is stuck at his face... has neither the clue nor the clarity of vision to realise that their representatives have sat at the vortex of a tsunami that is about to be unleashed by GoI, with the collusion of a stubborn tectonic plates in the form of NSCN (I-M) on the one hand and the historically insensitive tectonic plate called the GoI on the other...craftily represented by Mr. Interlocutor Governor of Nagaland. Interlocutor has made it absolutely clear that the GoI will sign the agreement with agreeable NNPGs and take necessary course of action against those in disagreement. From a safe protected sanctuary, Mr. Interlocutor Governor of Nagaland indifferently regrets that the civilian population will unavoidably be in harm’s way in the cross-fire, as a collateral damage that can’t be helped. Thank you Sir for your crocodile tears! Now, let us try and put everything on the table fairly in its right perspective without fear or favour. It is definitively beginning to dawn on the people of Nagaland that the NSCN (IM) has thus far not been completely honest with the stakeholders and has been playing with the sentiments of the Nagas with “their half truths along with their self-righteous shallow conjectures of shared sovereignty theory” right up to this point. They have repeatedly told the people of Nagaland everything that they have been telling the GoI but not what GoI has been telling them in their Indo-Naga discourse. On the other hand, the GoI also seem to have confidently concluded that the Nagas neither know their history nor have any command over the English language to understand the terms of the “Framework Agreement” that they were a party to. The Interlocutor Governor categorically

made it clear that Nagaland was and is a part of India during this ‘consultative’ meeting ...maybe if he too is in command of his English and revise his Indian History truthfully, he could find it awfully difficult to back up his statement with historical facts to prove that the Nagas were ever a part of the Indian race at any given point of time in history. The fundamental truth is that India did not even know that a race called the ‘Nagas’ existed before the British colonial regime...just as much as the Nagas did not know of India’s existence. The Nagas have the right to therefore humbly ask him to explain his historical reality to say that Nagas were and are a part of India...and also explain the “Unique History” as acknowledged by the GoI. Yes Sir...Mr. Interlocutor Governor, we do agree that ‘the Nagas cannot tell India to leave Nagaland’... which perhaps Nagas would want to say but for the lack of muscle power. The essential reality is to do with the question of whether Indian has a conscience that dictates what is right and what is wrong, what is fair and what is unfair? It’s an ethical issue. By virtue of India’s population and military might it can dictate term as it damn well pleases...this the Nagas know. It was absolutely unnecessary to rub it in into our faces. But India too must realise that the spirit of freedom in a people cannot be crushed by sheer brute force. Did India not try this course of action in the past? But did better senses not prevail... leading us to this point of resolving the conflict through peaceful dialogue/ discourse instead? As has been expressed before, the “Framework Agreement” is a cleverly crafted document that is opened to definition depending on which side of the fence one belongs.

Therefore, just as much as NSCN (IM) has been playing around with words like the “Unique history of the Nagas”, and “shared sovereignty”...so is the GoI. The simple truth understood by the common man is that India is a far too superior a force for the Nagas to confront and contend with when it comes to brute force...but this does not necessarily devalue the inherent God given rights of the Nagas. Be that as it may, this is the very first instance in the long torturous journey where both the GoI and the Factions have begun to show some semblance of transparency by reverting to the real stakeholders for a change by revealing the true picture of the two faces of the same coin... not because they want to but because they have run out of viable options to go forward...each trying to establish their respective credibility for their questionable actions that is about to explode on the face of the helpless stakeholders who will be smack in the middle of a crossfire that their respective intended action is about to perpetuate. It was because of the foreseeable scenario such as this that the Senior Citizens present in this meeting had pleaded for restraint and a reasonable time extension so that: (1) Each Tribal Hoho could go back to their respective Tribes and garner their respective Tribal voice of the majority on the issue of speeding up the solution at all cost or take it steadily and rationally forward for a lasting peace by allowing time to the Factions to honestly speak to the Naga people. After all, the Nagas have spent 73 year in a limbo and 22 years of negotiation...what will it cost GoI to spend the next few more months beyond their present dateline and establish an unquestionable

platform of final legitimate endorsement for a follow up action? (2) That the Nagas will also get the much needed time to confront the NSCN (IM) to come up with honest explanation on the issue of ‘Naga Constitution’ and ‘Flag’ with all the other issues of “Competency Clauses” that they have shared for the very first time without affording any debate on it. Such an exercise will bring about some clarity for the stakeholders to take the final call. History has clearly shown that India has never consulted or taken the Nagas seriously by unilaterally throwing all the past agreements into the dustbin...like the 9 point Agreement; the shifting of Nagaland from the Foreign Ministry (as envisaged in the 16 point agreement) to Home Ministry; the agreed funding through the Consolidated fund of India; the issue of integration; the International boundary between India and Myanmar etc. It is about to repeat the dishonourable past by taking a unilateral aggression against the stakeholders all over again. The consultative meeting of 18-10-2019 by no stretch of imagination can be considered as a mandate of the stakeholders... who have not been given an opportunity to be heard by their respective ‘big-headed Presidents’ of the Tribe who have rooted for a quick solution come what may. The Interlocutor knows this to be a fact but it serves his dateline ultimatum well. The bottom-line is this: There is no doubt that the common man is dead tired of the sustained taxation by the National Workers for over half a century and do want an early solution. It however should be done with the honest endorsement of the stakeholders on board. Period! Khekiye K. Sema IAS (Rtd); 3rd Mile Thilixu Village; Dimapur

Where do the Naga stand finally?

oday the entire Nagas are suffering from fatigue syndrome. They are tired, anxious and concern and impatiently awaiting the impending solution. But firstly, as the mystery and secrecy of the historic 3rd August Frame work Agreement was disclosed and shared with the anxious public recently, the suspicion and heap of criticism made accusing the NSCN (I-M) of a secret pack with the GOI of selling the interest of the Nagas was found misplaced. But enough damage has already been done in the mind of many in rationalising a negative mind set against one another in the tribal line. In fact, the Frame work Agreement is only a ‘Statement of Intent’ agreed between the two entities (Government in India Vs Nagas) on the basis of which the detail negotiation to settle the dispute amicably be made for sharing the sovereign power mutually, respecting each others’ interest. Thus, the principle of Shared Sovereignty came about which is considered as a Historic Agreement. For, by this agreement, the Nagas had abandoned the core demand of recognising the Naga independent Nation as their birth right and historic truth. (because the Naga territories were never been conquered nor subjugated by any power at any point of time except for a short spell of partial incursion into the south-western part of the Naga territories by the British from 1832- 1947). That is the historical uniqueness of the Nagas which we are all proud of, and has also been recognised by the GOI as well. Now, in regard to sharing of the Sovereign Power, the different subject matters (competencies) like Defence, Foreign Affairs, home rules, and currency and so on, are to be sorted out mutually for allocation of those matters between the two parties in ne-

gotiation. The party shall have full or partial power to regulate and handle the allocated subject matters without interference by the other. The NSCN (I-M) has stated that by and large other subject matters have been sorted out except the two contentious issues namely, the Naga Flag and the Constitution. The NSCN (I-M) insist that the FLAG symbolise a perennial source of inspiration for Naga unity and affirmation of a distinctive entity under which all the Nagas irrespective of differences has stood by all along and that must be respected. Thus, so far all the factional groups use the same Flag without any problem. It is an emotive issue which is very sensitive for the Nagas. The Constitution (Yehzabo) is to define the regulatory system of governance on the subject matters that are assigned to the Nagas in the details of negotiated settlement It is most unfortunate that as the settlement negotiation is in its final stage after a prolong tussle of detail bargaining subject wise for the last 23 years, Nagas are made to get more confuse and divided than before with the conflicting news of widely divergent terms and conditions of settlement coming out from the different negotiating groups, namely the NSCN (I-M) who has been mandated by the Nags since 2006 to negotiate on behalf of the people. On the other, the 6 NNPGs who are later addition as a recognised negotiating party by GOI. The convenor of the new group has recently stated that the party is ready for signing the final settlement without the Naga Flag and the Constitution which are stubbornly insisted upon by the (IM). Secondly, it is not an inclusive solution encompassing the entire Naga tribes but a piecemeal settlement mainly concerning the Nagas of Nagaland state.

In the process the tribal animosity is once again coming out with all its ugliness. Wonder whether it is fair and just to abandon the fellow Nagas who had together undergone the same suffering and sacrifices shoulder to shoulder all these years? Right from the beginning Nagas has believed in Naga unity and shared common destiny whatever may come. The Nagas irrespective of the place of birth and place of habitat has been inspired by the common dream and the prospect of sharing of same destiny as was articulated by the Naga Nation father figure late A Z Phizo and other pioneering leaders. All the present Naga national leaders and workers irrespective of their affiliation to a faction are all inspired by that vision and joined the movement. In pursuance of that goal, for nearly a century now every naga tribe irrespective of where they are located, have undergone the same extreme sufferings and sacrifices of their finest and the most able young people for the common cause of the Naga. Standing together as one people has been the sources of strength all these long years of struggle. Suddenly with no rhyme or reason, segregating the Nagas into two groups (Nagas of Nagaland and outside) for the sake of solution, is certainly not in the interest of the Nagas and a clear deviation from the vision of the political struggle adopted from the initial stage which is being faithfully pursued till today. If not political expediency, it is also inhuman to just abandon fellow closed comrades without logical reason. It requires serious public discourse before accepting such seemingly unjust measure. The NSCN (I-M) recent transparent sharing of the Frame Work Agreement (FWA) and the subject matters (competencies)

covered so far, though very late. it has a positive effect. The people are now more enlightened and are coming out with their observations and comment on those contentious issues and other matters of interest and what need to be done. Similarly, it will be in the fitness of thing for the 6 NNPGs to share with the people about the details of their agreed competencies package that have been sorted out with the GOI. The people have the right to know the details of substantive issues for a healthy discourse before they are finalised on their behalf like the (IM) has done. If the recent news item published in the local dailies with the caption “Lotus-Eater” by Langphong Konyak is true, it’s shocking and real demeaning for the Naga warriors and is a real deterrent to the Naga cause. Many issue of interest had been touched in the writing which needs immediate clarification from the leaders of the 6NNPGs otherwise, it is damaging to the Nagas as a whole both over ground and underground alike. We cannot effort to allow repeating the bad side of our history of the divide and rule policy

and succumbing to the lure of material comfort and benefit. But instead of accusing the other side (Indian) for such a manoeuvre, it is the Nagas who will be responsible for the final and permanent divide unless we consciously control and restrain ourselves. Nagas also cannot allow any organisation to betray the people interest for the benefit of a few. We may ask ourselves if the conflict of interest come about between personal or a tribe’s interest with that of larger common interest, where do one stand? We expect selfless sacrifices and service for the future good from the leaders especially at this critical moment in NAGA HISTORY. To be a leader at this crucial l moment is a God sent privilege to be used judiciously to the best interest of the people. The action of the day will judge the quality of the leadership. The future history is watching. GOI needs to extend the deadline of (31/10/19) for final settlement in view of the new political development requiring further extensive consultation with the people.

Reader’s Post Sir,

So many rumours

With so many rumours doing the rounds that there might be trouble and that people should take necessary precautions, it is imperative that leaders take stock of the situation. So many problems are being faced in our state and the peace process is also taking its own pace, whereas it was mentioned earlier that by October 31 the deal will be finalised. Many writers are also viewing their varied opinions which do little to assuage the apprehension looming large in the minds of the people. Renthungo Lotha, High School Road Kohima

“Tourism and other activities will see a surge in waste dumping. This will hasten glacier retreat.

He said that while opportunities will open up the doors for revenue generation for locals as also the government, keeping the security in view, red lines will have to be drawn to restrict areas for visits. This being a very sensitive area, security issues, especially concerning foreigners, will have to be factored in, he added. At the same time, the former army commander said, it will also motivate the youngsters to join the Army. “They will learn that the forces can operate and sustain in extreme climate and very hostile terrain.... It will be a capability demonstration to our countrymen,” he added.

GOVERNMENT OF NAGALAND

NEW DELHI, OCT 21 (PTI): Taking a dig at the BJP, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday described the BJP’s candidate from Haryana’s Assandh as the “most honest man” in the ruling party after a video went viral in which he is purportedly heard saying no matter which button is pressed on the EVM, the vote would go to the BJP. Gandhi posted the video in which sitting MLA Bakshish Singh Virk purportedly makes the remarks. Virk has dubbed it as a “fake video” and alleged that it was a conspiracy by his opponents to defame him and his party. “The most honest man in the BJP,” the former Congress president tweeted

along with the video. After the video went viral, the Election Commission on Sunday issued a show-cause notice to the BJP leader and appointed a special observer to the constituency to take “corrective action”. It said former deputy election commissioner Vinod Zutshi is being sent to Assandh constituency

in Karnal “in light of the video circulating in social media”. In the video, Virk also purportedly tells a small gathering of his supporters, ”We will come to know who has voted for whom, there should be no misconception about this....” Virk, however, claimed that he never said anything about EVMs .

Students belonging to Indigenous and Schedule Tribes of Nagaland and pursuing Diploma, Undergraduate and Post Graduate Courses in Engineering (Both Fresh & Renewal) within India recognised by All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) are hereby informed that online registration for State Technical Scholarship will be made live from 19th Oct. to 30th Nov, 2019 from the State portal www.scholarship. nagaland.gov.in. Furthermore, UG/ PG students who have applied for Merit-cummeans based scholarship for Minority Communities under Ministry of Minority Affairs, GOI from National Scholarship portal are also advised to apply under this scheme as there are fixed quota under Minority Scholarship Scheme.

its long-pending demand for setting up SSB. The three additional demands included i) issuing notification banning all recruitment to ‘Group C’ posts until SSB was set up, ii) issuing notification for scrapping down of all departmental exams for recruitment to ‘Group C’ posts and iii) setting up SSB and that all existing vacancies should be filled up through open recruitment. NSF ’s draft policy and modalities in tune with the already implemented States were also submitted to the government for ready reference and implementation thereafter, the statement added. NSF said it had appealed to the government in good faith to comply with the demands within a period of one month. The representation also clearly stated that it would be compelled to take up befitting action in the interest of the student community, should the government chose to refrain from taking up the issue in earnest. However, even after a lapse of one month since the ultimatum was served, NSF said it has not made much headway in its pursuit as the State government had not been forthcoming to hammer out a solution in tune with the aspirations of the Naga students and youth. The uneasy impasse created by the failure of the government to heed to the collective desire of Naga youth and students had now compelled the federation to register its resentment against the government.

(From p-1) Further, KU asserted that all the responsible Naga leaders representing different political organisations, groups or tribes “must learn of their mistakes made in the past, the greed, jealousy and hatred towards each other and embrace all, forgiving one another in the name of our Almighty God.” The Konyak Union also appealed all the Naga political groups to come together on board for honourable and lasting solution

(From p-1) It also asserted of not wavering until the desired result was achieved and appealed to everyone to walk together with it throughout this journey. In a statement by its media cell, NSF alleged backdoor appointments and other malpractices during recruitment processes to various government posts that have threatened to destroy the future of educated Naga youths in the State into disarray. Mentioning that meritocracy was given little credence, nor the efforts and sacrifices made by the candidates to secure a future for themselves and the society at large, the federation declared that the situation needed to be remedied without further delay “lest posterity holds us accountable for having done little or nothing to right this monstrous wrong”. NSF declared that, as conscience-keeper of Naga students and youth, it had taken it upon its shoulder to fight this ever pervasive malaise and submitted a memorandum to chief minister Neiphui Rio on June 11 this year, urging his government to set up a committee to work out the modalities for setting-up Staff Selection Board (SSB) in the State within two months. But when no positive development to this effect was witnessed, the federation said it was compelled to issue an ultimatum to the State government on August 21 with three-point charter of demands, in addition to

The Indian Army had moved a proposal for opening up Siachen to tourists with a focus to showcase the working conditions of troops serving in the sector, and the government gave its nod, according to sources. According to official figures, the Army lost 163 personnel at the world’s highest battlefield during the last 10 years. India and Pakistan started deploying troops at the strategically key glacier in 1984 and mountaineering expeditions were allowed till then. The Glacier came under the strategic control of India in 1984 following ‘Operation Meghdoot’.

In a further surprise, the Credit Suisse report found that the increase in household wealth in India for 2018-19 was mostly driven by rising house prices rather than market capitalization. In terms of outlook, the Credit Suisse Report expects India’s household wealth to rise from the current $12.6 trillion to $16 trillion. This translates to a CAGR of about 5% in dollar terms. The modest growth rate sits at odds with the government’s target for a $5 trillion dollar economy, which would require a roughly 12% CAGR in dollar terms from the current GDP of about $2.8 trillion.

Amazon cannot and does not participate in seller’s decision related to their products and its prices,” the spokesperson added. Queries sent to Flipkart remained unanswered. Last week, Flipkart had said it was compliant with all applicable laws after the Commerce Minister’s comments hinted at a probe into alleged predatory pricing in the e-commerce space. Amazon.in and Flipkart announced record transactions on their respective platforms earlier this month. In just five days of the first edition of its “Great Indian Festival” sale, Amazon said it received orders from 99.4 per cent of pincodes in the country. Similarly, Flipkart said that during its six-day “Big Billion Days” sale, it registered an almost 50 per cent increase in the number of new customers compared with the previous year.

Last year, the bilateral energy trade valuation stood at $7 billion. “In 2018-19, our energy trade size is $7 billion with the US. It is increasing this year, as we are importing crude oil, LNG, coal, especially the special category of coal. Our energy bridge is very robust with the world community and America is an important destination,” Pradhan told

New Delhi, Oct 21 (Agencies): E-commerce majors Amazon India and Flipkart have been asked to reveal the top sellers on their platforms. A detailed questionnaire has been sent to Amazon and Flipkart by the government. The development comes days after Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal suggested an investigation on e-commerce players to check any violation of norms, saying, “E-commerce firms have no right to discount products and use predatory pricing to dominate retail sales.” E-tailers typically announce discounts in their separate limited-period sales to spur sales during the festival season. “Amazon has a high bar for compliance and we continue to comply with all applicable laws of the land. Amazon.in is a third party marketplace where sellers offer their products to customers for sale,” an Amazon India spokesperson said. “Sellers on amazon.in have the absolute discretion to decide what products to sell and at their prices.

At present, tax benefits are provided under merchandise export from India scheme (MEIS) for goods and services export from India scheme (SEIS). In the new policy, changes are expected in incentives given to goods as the current export promotion schemes are challenged by the US in the dispute resolution mechanism of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). Against this backdrop, the government is recasting the incentives to make them compliant with global trade rules, being formulated by Geneva-based WTO, a 164nation multilateral body.

on the eve of festivals. Every year from the first day of Navratri to the 14th of December, the first phase of the festive season, gives traders an opportunity to grab maximum sales. Thirty percent of the total value of business in a year happens during this festive season but this year traders are desperate and disappointed with the sales. With barely one week left for Diwali, commercial markets are facing a demand slump. They have lost hopes of recovering from accumulated losses. According to the Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT), the main reason for such a dismal scenario is “due to highly surging sales in e-commerce market which is offering huge discounts on various products and even indulging in predatory pricing and adopting all kinds of unfair business practices”. Recently, in the festival sale put up by Amazon and Flipkart, both companies have sold goods worth around Rs 19,000 crore in just four days.

New Delhi, Oct 21 (PTI): The commerce ministry is considering rationalising and simplifying certain export promotion schemes such as EPCG in the next foreign trade policy, which provides guideline and incentives for increasing shipments, an official said.

The ministry may also include new chapters for services, and e-commerce exports besides simplifying advance authorisation and self ratification schemes. EPCG is an export promotion scheme under which an exporter can import certain amount of capital goods at zero duty for upgrading technology related with exports On the other hand, advance authorisation is issued to allow duty free import of inputs, which is physically incorporated in export product.

Even during the festival season, most of the local markets here continue to look deserted, said the traders association on Monday. Business chambers and various market associations have been protesting against the expansion of online business platforms and e-commerce companies for several days, and have accused them of unfair practices. Electronics and mobile dealers say they have been the worst affected. The business organisations have shot out memorandums and petitions to the Centre urging it to come to their rescue by restricting trade activities of e-commerce companies.

China unveils new space carrier to compete India BEIJ ING, OCT 21 (AGENCIES): China has unveiled its new generation of commercial carrier rockets which could carry up to 1.5 tonne payload as it gears up to compete with India to attract the lucrative global space launch market. The new Long rocket series comprises a cluster of solid fuelled rockets codenamed the Smart Dragon (SD) family, and a Tenglong liquid-propellant rocket were unveiled on Sunday by the China Rocket, a commercial space wing of the country’s leading rocket-maker China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology, official media reported on Monday. The new set of rockets were aimed at tapping the growing potential of domestic and global commercial space launches, staterun Global Times reported. The new set of rockets were “basically capable of meeting the requirements of the overwhelming majority of launch missions for domestic and foreign commercial satellites,” the daily quoted a statement of the China Rocket. China which has an established space programme with mission to Moon has elaborate plans

to extend its mission to Mars besides setting up its own permanent space station by 2022. It however lags behind in attracting the global commercial rocket market unlike India. In 2017 an article in Global Times warned that China’s space industry is lagging behind that of India in commercial space industry. “India’s successful launch of a recordbreaking 104 satellites into orbit could serve as a wake-up call for China’s commercial space industry and there are a number of lessons for the country to learn,” the article said. “Of the 104 satellites, 96 belong to the US, which makes India a fierce competitor in the global market for commercial rocket launch services,” the article titled

‘China needs to cut commercial space costs to compete with India’ said. India’s “achievements are largely driven by its low-price advantage, a weak point for China’s commercial space sector, it said. Keeping the low costs in mind the Tenglong liquid rocket, which was unveiled to the public last weekend could peg the launch cost for each kilogram of payload to within USD 5,000, the Global Times report on Monday said. Tenglong rocket is expected to make its maiden flight in around 2021. The Long series is designed to meet the increasing market demand for sending commercial payloads into orbit both at home and abroad, Tang Yagang, the CEO of the China Rocket said.

9 Pak rejects India’s claim of Iran warns to 30 world leaders to attend nuclear Naruhito’s enthronement destroying terror camps in PoK reduce commitments

ISLAMABAD, OCT 21 (PTI): The Pakistan military has rejected as “false” the Indian Army’s assertion that it targeted at least three terror camps in PoK and said India is welcome to take any foreign diplomat or media to the site to “prove” its claim on the ground. Indian Army chief General Bipin Rawat said on Sunday that six to ten Pakistan Army personnel were killed and three terror camps destroyed in a retaliatory action by the Indian Army opposite the Tangdhar and Keran sectors in Jammu and Kashmir. He said another terror camp was severely damaged in the action by the Indian forces and the retaliation had caused substantial harm to the terror infrastructure across the Line of Control (LoC). Responding to Rawat’s claim, Pakistan’s military spokesman Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor in a midnight tweet expressed disappointment at Rawat’s assertions. “The Indian Army chief ’s statement claiming destruction of 3 alleged camps is disappointing as he holds a very responsible appointment,” Ghafoor said. “There are no camps let alone targeting those. Indian Embassy in Pakistan is welcome to take any

8 dead in Chile mass riots over metro price hike as much damage as possible,” Chilean President Sebastian Pinera told the media on Sunday The Chilean lower house of congress approved a bill eliminating the metro fair price hike on Sunday evening. The bill passed in a 103-1 vote, with one abstention, and will now be forwarded to the Senate for ratification Monday. Pinera submitted the bill on an urgent basis aimed at ending the violent protests that have beset the

country over the past few days. “They are at war against all Chileans who want to live in democracy,” he said of the protesters. Health Minister Jaime Manalich said 32 people are hospitalized in the Metro Region, 10 of them in serious condition, and that 208 people were given medical care for assorted lesser injuries. A state of emergency has been in place in five Chilean regions since Sat-

urday morning: almost the entire capital, Valparaiso, Concepcion, the communes of Coquimbo and La Serena in the Coquimbo region, and in the Rancagua commune since Sunday morning. In addition, a curfew was decreed in Santiago, Valparaiso and Concepcion, as well as in La Serena, Coquimbo and Valdivia, and authorities have announced it will continue in those cities between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.

He said that the “propensity of false claims by senior Indian military leadership especially since Pulwama incident is detrimental to peace in the region.” “Such false claims by the Indian Army are being made to suit vested domestic interests. This is against professional military ethos,” Ghafoor said. In a major counteroffensive after Pakistan’s unprovoked firing, the Indian Army carried out heavy artillery strikes on Sunday, targeting four terror camps and several Pakistani military positions in Neelam Valley in Pakistanoccupied Kashmir (PoK). Gen Rawat said the terror camps destroyed by the forces were located in Athmuqam, Kundal Shahi and Jura, and the Army had information about a camp in Leepa Valley too.

SANTIAGO, OCT 21 (IANS): Eight people have been killed so far in the mass riots across Chile over the government move to increase the local metro fares. The toll increased on Sunday after firefighters confirmed that five people died in a clothing store fire in the capital city’s Renca commune, reports Efe news. The store caught fire after being looted during rioting, which broke out Friday over social inequality and scarcities but was sparked by complaints about the government increasing the local metro fares. Earlier Sunday, violence continued in the capital and elsewhere with heavy clashes between protesters and security forces, looting, fires and pillaging. Authorities Saturday afternoon had confirmed the death of three people after finding a body in a supermarket that was torched earlier in the day in Santiago - the latest fatality after two others died under similar circumstances. “We are at war with a powerful and relentless enemy that respects nothing and no one, and is willing to use violence without any limit even if it means the loss of human lives, for the sole purpose of producing

T E H R A N, O C T 2 1 (IANS): Iran’s Foreign Ministry on Monday announced that the country was ready to further reduce its commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal, unless its interests were secured by the signatories. Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi said that “we hope parties to the nuclear deal take special measures (to protect Iran’s interests) pertaining to the deal, otherwise, we are ready to take the fourth step”, reports Xinhua news agency. As a reaction to the US withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in 2018 and its subsequent sanctions on Iran and Europe’s sluggishness to save Tehran’s interests under the deal, the Islamic Republic started reducing its nuclear commitments from May this year. The agreement places significant limitations on Iran’s nuclear programme to prevent the country from making atomic bombs. Last month, Iran had activated advanced centrifuges to boost its reserves of enriched uranium. As a third step in Iran’s reduction of commitments under the deal, the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) activated 20 IR-4 and 20 IR-6 centrifuges.

I don’t feel my age: Vin Diesel as superhero ‘Bloodshot’ Kanye West confirms arrival Arnold Schwarzenegger hits Indian screens in February of ‘Jesus Is King’ this Friday

anye West has seemingly confirmed that ‘Jesus Is King’ will arrive this Friday, after a string of delays. The follow-up to ‘Ye’ failed to arrive in September, despite the rapper sharing a tracklist and previewing the record at his ongoing Sunday Sessions. However, West himself has seemingly confirmed the release on Twitter – sharing a photo of a blue vinyl bearing the record’s name. It comes after Kanye first revealed the mooted release dat at the Jesus

Is King: A Kanye West Experience event, which was hosted at the George Washington University. He reportedly told the audience that the album was delayed because he was “making it better for y’all.” It also coincides with the release of West’s IMAX film, also titled Jesus Is King, which will bring his Sunday Service to cinemagoers. This comes after Kenny G said he’s set to feature on the record, after he performed in West and Kim Kardashian’s house earlier this year to mark

Valentine’s Day. He told GQ: “That was the day that I met Kanye. And he just could not have been nicer. It was super fun. And it was a great vibe doing that performance in their house. After that, he asked me if I want to come over to see his studio. So I said, ‘Cool’. So I went with him. And he started playing me some tracks. And as he was playing the tracks, I did not hesitate to say what I thought about the tracks. “And I suggested on a particular track, ‘You know, I think if my saxophone was on there it would sound really good’. And he said, ‘Cool’. And he pulled out the microphone, and I started playing on it.” The record was meant to be released on September 27 but did not arrive. West’s wife Kim Kardashian West then said it would be released on September 29, however that day passed without an album too. (NME)

A report in cricketpakistan.com.pk quoted sources as saying that Hasan has failed to recover from back spasm, which he suffered before the limited-overs series against Sri Lanka on home soil. He has been advised a further resting period of three weeks and will continue going through rehab. The selection of the Pakistan pacer for the two-Test series against Australia beginning November 21 will also depend on the result of his fitness test after three weeks’ time. Pakistan are scheduled to play three T20Is each against Australia on November 3, 5 and 8. The 25-year-old has been a vital cog of the Pakistan bowling attack especially in white-ball cricket and over the three formats he has taken 148 wickets.

out in the second round last week. Sindhu, who made it to the semis in the 2017 edition of the French Open, will face Canada’s world number 9 Michelle Li in the opening round. On the other hand, World number 8 Saina Nehwal has also been struggling in the recent past as she made three first-round exits in her past three tournaments. Saina will be up against Hong Kong’s Cheung Ngan Yi in the opening round and will also look to keep her dismal shows behind. In the men’s singles, 2017 champion Kidambi Srikanth will open his campaign against second seed Chinese Taipei’s Chou Tien Chen. For mer Common-

A joint meeting of the frontal organizations held at Wokha Town on 19th October 2019 had thoroughly deliberated on the letter written by both Zaremo Kikon general secretary and signed by Sulanthung Humtsoe, President of the self styled Lotha Public Organisation (LPO) addressing to the Hon'ble Governor Raj Bhavan Kohima, Nagaland ‘to derecognize, obviate and exclude the Lotha tribe from the solution campaign for the Nagas of Nagaland.’ The Frontal Organisations present at the meeting vehemently condemn the letter and made it clear that the LPO will be answerable to the general Lotha public and to many of the Lotha/Naga brothers and sisters who have sacrificed their lives while protecting our motherland. When all the Nagas from all walks of life are waiting for an early solution of the ongoing peace talks, this ridiculous statement of LPO has hurt the sentiments of the Lothas and henceforth treat them as traitors and further warn them not to represent or speak on behalf of the Lothas as the Lothas have never recognised the LPO and hence cannot represent the Lotha tribe. It is made known to all that, the Lotha Hoho is the only official body of the Lothas having the right to represent and speak on behalf of the Lothas. Hitherto, all the decorated press statements made in the public domain by the so called LPO in the local dailies is nothing short of conceited ignorance working under vexed conditions of concocted fantasies. A disassociated self-styled leader, detached from the truth to build an empire of lies at the cost of the Lotha general public and the Lotha apex organization is tantamount to treason. While condemning the LPO, the Frontal Organisations further warns them to desist from making any unethical, provocative and divisive statements to avoid any untoward incidents of which Sulanthung Humtsoe and his team shall be solely held responsible.

Paris, Oct 21 (IANS): World champion P.V. Sindhu will aim to return to winning ways when she begins her womens singles campaign at the USD 750,000 French Open badminton tournament, beginning here on Tuesday.

In the China Open, Sindhu faltered in the second round before failing in the first round at the Korea Open in September. Sindhu again failed to put up a good show at the Denmark Open as she crashed

this season, seven more than Liverpool, and despite his criticism, Guardiola said he was pleased with the forwards at his disposal. Jesus was drafted into the starting line-up for the Palace game in place of Argentina international Sergio Aguero, who was involved in a minor car accident on his way to training on Wednesday. “To compete with Sergio is maybe the most difficult thing... but Gabriel is so calm,” Guardiola added. “Every training session he fights like an animal but he can improve.” City are next in action in the Champions League against Atalanta on Tuesday.

Lo n d o n , O c t 2 1 (Agencies): Manchester City will not win the Champions League this season unless they become more clinical in front of goal, manager Pep Guardiola said, after his team’s 2-0 Premier League away win at Crystal Palace over the weekend. Gabriel Jesus and David Silva were both on target as City ran out comfortable winners at Selhurst Park on Saturday, allowing Guardiola’s second-placed team to close the gap to leaders Liverpool to six points. Jesus’ goal against Palace was the Brazilian’s 50th for City but Guardiola pointed out that the 22-yearold had also missed several chances during the match. “(Jesus) is so young,” Guardiola told reporters. “We missed a lot of chances. We have to be clinical. When people talk about the Champions League being the target, we’re still not ready... we can still improve.” City lead the league scoring charts with 29 goals

4-1 with 20 minutes to go after Martinez had opened the scoring after two minutes in Sassuolo, adding a second from the penalty spot after 71 minutes. Belgian forward Lukaku found the net after 38 minutes and converted a penalty just before the

three points, but we need to defend better than that. It was very important to get this win.” Meanwhile, Pioli’s debut as Milan coach was spoiled by two players he previously coached -- Khouma Babacar and Marco Calderoni. Babacar cancelled out Turkish winger Hakan Calhanoglu’s first-half goal, when the Senegalese forward missed a penalty but turned in the rebound after an hour in the San Siro. Krzysztof Piatek came off the bench and scored with nine minutes to go after a Calhanoglu pull back, but Calderoni rifled in the equaliser in stoppage time. “Tonight I suffered because of my exes,” said Pioli. “I had hoped for a gift this evening for my birthday, but I saw some good things, the team deserved a win, but it was our own fault we didn’t,” added the former Fiorentina coach, who turned 54 on Sunday. Milan are in 12th with ten points from eight games. Lecce are one point above the relegation zone.

Milan, Oct 21 (Agencies): Inter Milan survived a late Sassuolo scare and a bizarre intervention by a parachutist to win 4-3 and keep in touch with leaders Juventus in Serie A as Stefano Pioli’s first game in charge of AC Milan ended in a 2-2 draw against

break despite a parachutist inexplicably landing on the pitch just as he was about to kick the ball. The man was quickly led off by security agents as players and fans looked on bewildered. Then the former Manchester United striker slotted in to give Inter a 3-1 lead. With the game under control Conte brought on winger Matteo Politano and midfielder Valentino Lazaro for their first appearances this season. Then Filip Djuricic (74) and Jeremie Boga (81) hit back for the hosts, who are struggling in 17th position, to add to Domenic Berardi’s first-half goal. Inter held on for a win after consecutive defeats against Barcelona in the Champions League and Juventus in Serie A. “Once it goes to 3-1 and 4-1, it should be over,” said Lukaku who has now scored five Serie A goals in eight games. “In the first half, we did everything well. However, we should have scored in the first 15 minutes after the restart to really kill off the match. The positive we take is that we got the

India eyes series whitewash vs SA

Mohammed Shami celebrates with team-mates after taking a wicket on Day 3 of the final Test match against South Africa on Monday. (PTI)

Ranchi, Oct 21 (IANS): India’s bowlers, led by Mohammed Shami, pushed Virat Kohli and boys closer to a 3-0 whitewash as South Africa were left tottering at 132/8 at stumps on Day 3 after following on in the third and final Test at the JSCA Stadium on Monday. At close of play, Dean Elgar’s concussion substitute Theunis de Bruyn was batting on 30 with Anrich Nortje (5) for company. While Shami has figures of 3/10 in the second innings, Umesh Yadav has picked two as the Indian pacers once again dominated the show. Bundled out for just 162 in the first innings, the

Proteas were forced to follow on and they trail India by 203 runs with just two wickets in the bag in their second essay. While bad light did force the players to go off the field after the Indians asked for an extra 30 minutes at the fall of the eighth wicket, the South Africans are only delaying the inevitable. To m a k e m a t t e r s worse for the Proteas, Elgar had to retire hurt post a knock on the helmet by a rising Umesh delivery just before the Tea break. Earlier, a total of 16 wickets fell on Monday after South Africa resumed at 9/2. Umesh returned with figures of 3/40 in the first essay while Shami, debu-

tant Shahbaz Nadeem and Ravindra Jadeja all scalped two wickets apiece. Fo r t h e t o u r i s t s, Zubayr Hamza top-scored with 62. Following on, there was no respite for the visitors as it was Shami who once again looked in lethal rhythm. He clean-bowled Hamza (0) first and then trapped skipper Faf du Plessis (4) in front as the score read 18/3. But the pacer wasn’t done and then sent back du Plessis’ ‘toss proxy’ Temba Bavuma for a duck, caught behind by wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha. But the slide was started by Umesh when he sent opener Quinton de Kock’s

off-stump cartwheeling with a beauty as the Proteas T20I skipper played inside the line of the ball. At the tea break, South Africa were 26/4. In the morning session, the tourists had the worst possible start as they lost skipper du Plessis to a peach of a delivery by Umesh. Overnight-batsman Hamza, however, opted for counter-attacking technique thereafter and along with Bavuma, scored freely and made sure the visitors didn’t succumb to the pressure applied by the Indian bowlers. Both Hamza and Bavuma collected boundaries at regular interval and kept the scoreboard moving. During the 91-run partnership, the 24-year-old Hamza went to score his maiden Test 50. However, just when South Africa were looking like getting back into the game, Jadeja bowled a ripper to get past the bat of Hamza and brought an end to his 62-run knock. Bavuma didn’t stay long at the crease thereafter and became the first international scalp of debutant Shahbaz Nadeem at his individual score of 32. Wicketkeeper Heinrich Klaasen, who came in next, didn’t trouble the scorers much and was bowled by Jadeja after contributing with six runs to South Africa total. Brief Scores: India: 497/9 declared; South Africa: 162 all out (Zubayr Hamza 62, Temba Bavuma 32; Umesh Yadav 3/40) & 132/8 (following on) (Theunis de Bruyn 30*, Shami 3/10)

Bengaluru FC held 0-0 by NE Utd

Bengaluru FC's Sunil Chhetri in action during their ISL match against Northeast United FC at the Kanteerava Stadium in Bengaluru on Monday.

Bengaluru, Oct 21 (Agencies): Bengaluru FC and NorthEast United kick-started their Indian Super League (ISL) season with a goalless draw on Monday at the Kanteerava Stadium in Bengaluru. The defending champions swapped their traditional 4-2-3-1 to the classic 4-3-3, with new-signing Manuel Onwu spearheading the attack alongside Sunil Chhetri and Udanta Singh. Robert Jami fielded a 4-4-1-1 at the other end, with Asamoah Gyan and Martin Chaves leading the attack. The hosts started the game on the front foot, enjoying a lion’s share of possession in the opening minutes. But a pale front-line undid most of the efforts of a creative midfield. Their first real chance

of the game arrived in the 14th minute, with Raphael Augusto setting up Onwu. But his touch let him down and the promising move failed to bear fruit. Ashique followed it with a brilliant run just moments later, as he burst into the NorthEast United box, dribbling past two defenders. But he dragged his effort wide. At the other end, Martin Chaves tested Gurpreet Singh Sandhu with a tremendous effort from outside the box. But the Bengaluru custodian produced an equally impressive save to deny the Uruguayan. Ghana legend Asamoah Gyan – who was a spectator for most of the game – slotted past the Indian goalkeeper in the 36th minute. But the offside flag went up and the scoreline stayed 0-0. Bengaluru dominated

possession yet again in the opening moments of the second half but lacked a cutting edge in the final third. Eventually, it was Gyan who was involved in the first eye-catching moment of the second half as his curler from inside the box struck the crossbar before it went out. At the other end, Nishu Kumar unleashed a piledriver from outside the area but NorthEast custodian Subhasish Chowdury reacted with a stunning save to keep the defender at bay. In the end, a draw was a fair result, with Bengaluru's wasteful frontline and NorthEast's pale midfield cancelling each other out. Today’s match Time: 7:30 pm Jamshedpur FC vs Delhi Dynamos
