KOHIMA, SEP 15 (NPN): BJP national general secretary in-charge of North East and J&K Ram Madhav who arrived Kohima Saturday described Naga political issue as “very complicated” and that negotiations were at an advanced stage, but may take time if a permanent solution was to be achieved. Madhav said this during a brief interaction with media at the helipad at Lerie Kohima on arrival from Imphal. Madhav was responding to queries whether BJP would again use the slogan “Election for Solution” for the 2019 parliamentary election, which he had declared on January 22 during the state general election campaign. “We want a permanent solution and we are not doing it with any election in mind,” he said adding that the 2019 Lok Sabha election was still eight months away and sooner or later, solution will have to arrive. Madhav pointed out that he was not involved in the negotiation and so cannot give any deadline for solution.

Could anybody have thought that nine crore toilets will be built in the country in four years? Had anybody imagined that about 4.5 lakh villages, over 450 districts and 20 states

and Union Territories will become open-defecationfree (ODF) in four years?” he said. Modi said the day marks a new resolve, new enthusiasm and a new dream. “Today 1.25 crore citizens are going to repeat the pledge of cleanliness is service. From today till October 2, we all will contribute with new energy and enthusiasm to make the country clean,” he said. “We can say with pride that every section, every community, every caste, people of every age are taking this big campaign forward. Whether it is village, city, street or a corner, no part of the country is untouched by the campaign,” he added.

gram, chief information commissioner, Er. Chanbemo Lotha, urged the engineers to strive without selfish intent.

commissioner, unless state assets were created the state will not progress due to lack of resources.

Therie with party leaders and other invitees after the NPMCC flag installation program held on Saturday.

DIMAPUR: NPCC president, K. Therie has called upon party workers to fight elections on issues and not by bribing voters. He was speaking at the Nagaland Pradesh Mahila Congress Committee (NPMCC) mahila congress flag installation program at Congress Bhavan, Dimapur on September 15. A press release from Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee media cell reported that in his speech, K.

Drawing examples from women leaders across the

world, Therie said Nagaland women were second to none and were capable of representing the people in all fields of life. On corruption, Therie said the political fight against corrupt money seemed impossible as corruption was too deep rooted in the people in power while law and order had become a thing of the past. Therie said it was not impossible to build a united front to achieve the goals that elude us today adding that the Congress party was committed to finding a solution to ease the burden of the people. Taking a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Therie said if Modi

heard his own promises to the nation before becoming the Prime Minister, he would not vote for himself in the coming Lok Sabha Elections. Elucidating on the present national scenario, he said India was capable of making a strong decision which will determine the ruling Government at the centre. Stating that the future was very dark for the government, he exuded confidence that the Congress party was on the way to forming the Central Government. On the ensuing 2019 Lok Sabha elections, Therie said that the people should elect their MPs from a national political party to be able to have a voice in the Parliament

because Regional MPs are barely given one to two minutes to speak making it impossible to raise their voice for their people. He maintained that an MP should be part of a parliamentary group to have a voice in the Parliament and said the opportunity to send such an MP was coming in the ensuing Lok Sabha elections. N. Lucy, president, NPMCC, unfurled the mahila congress flag and presented a brief history of the Mahila Congress. She said it was during the National Convention of Mahila Congress in 1984 that a new constitution was approved and adopted to constitutionally convert the Congress Mahila Cell into an autonomous frontal organization and to name it the All India Mahila Congress (AIMC). Adding that the AIMC started functioning as an Independent Frontal Organization within the AICC in the same year, Lucy appreciated the Congress president for launching the new logo in August 2018, giving the Congress women’s wing a separate identity. Addressing the gathering, Khegholi Aomi, AICC member, said women in the state were yet to achieve the

desired level of empowerment in all fields. She pointed out that till date Nagaland had not elected a single woman MLA and called for a change in mindset towards supporting women to become empowered, not only economically but politically. Aomi also lamented the level of corruption which has gripped the state, and said that as Christians, the Nagas should learn to follow the guiding Christian principles. Appreciating party loyalists present at the program, Aomi said that today, Congress was rid of opportunists and only the unwavering who believe in the principles and ideologies of the party stand out. She exuded optimism that the Congress party would return to power in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. Others who spoke at the program included Jonathan Ao, general secretary, NPCC and A. Bendangyanger Jamir, Dimapur DCC president on behalf of DCC presidents. Sevi Chophy, president, AMC, Ghaspani-I invoked God’s blessings while a vote of thanks was proposed by Asanuo Chishi, general secretary, NPMC.

These challenges, he said, were a good thing. He stated that it would not have been possible to

face these challenges but for the efforts of colony chairmen and the communities residing in the district. He congratulated the chairmen and the communities for their participation and reminded them that Dimapur had potential but to realize it, Dimapur needed challenges. DMC administrator Moa Sangtam reiterated the need for civic sense and a constructive mindset. He urged the colony representatives to contribute towards a clean Dimapur, not for money or prizes but for their future and for a

better Dimapur. SDO (Civil) Dimapur Nyempo Wallim, who is the convener and judge for the cleanest colony said that from the month of September, the final quarter and elimination round of the cleanest colony competition will begin for the year 2018. Out of the more than 100 colonies in Dimapur, 30 will be selected as per their performances in September, which will be whittled down to 20 in October, 10 in November and five in December. The final winner will be selected out of these five colonies in December. Drawing attention to the competition criteria, the judge said that judgement will be delivered based on six indicators: garbage management, drainage management, stagnant water, road maintenance, sanitation and colony community participation in cleanliness. Meanwhile, the free coaching classes for Naga civil service aspirants, to be conducted by Dimapur district administration, Office of the Commissioner of Police and the Dimapur Municipal Council, was officially launched on the same day.

DMC administrator Moa Sangtam said that the initiative was focusing on quality and not quantity. “The initiative falls outside our line of duty but we felt that we should do something when we can and we also expect cooperation from the candidates”, said Sangtam. DC Sushil Kumar Patel said that as they were sacrificing their official duty to impart quality coaching, should the selected candidates crack the exams, it will be their reward for the sacrifice, he said. C o m m issio ne r o f Police Jamir reminded the candidates that in the immensely competitive world, there was a need for dedication.

The Opposition Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M)-led Left Front, the Congress and the IPFT, a tribal-based party, separately urged the SEC to reschedule the ongoing election process as they claimed that “massive violence prevented their nominees to file papers”.

Big pig business

t is without doubt that Nagaland happens to be perhaps the highest consumer of pigs even though other states in the north east too are not far behind. According to various data, the state imports over Rs.300 crore of live animals of which around Rs.200 crore is on pigs. The news that Punjab has agreed to export 8000 pigs a month or 96,000 pigs annually to Nagaland involving a transaction of around Rs.200 crore is welcome. The pigs are bred by Punjab pig farmers who will liaise with the state government for obtaining fitness/health certificate. There is no reason to doubt the assurance given by Punjab animal husbandry minister Balbir Singh Sidhu to a delegation from Nagaland. Pigs reared in Punjab are fed with required nutrition and also in a most hygienic way unlike the stray pigs being imported from other states like Bihar or UP, which feed mostly on carrion and rubbish from dumps. Pigs from these states are not reared but allowed to roam free. So there is no cost or recurring expenditure involved in rearing the pigs the selling price is naturally inexpensive. This is a boon to wholesalers who can earn good margin. The offer made to Nagaland also include supply of chicken and fish. Though Nagaland is a very big consumer of pork meat yet it has been importing pigs for a very long time. It clearly shows that there is something not going right somewhere. If the demand is high then surely, the local farmers should be doing their best to supply the needs. It is perhaps at the stage of breeding that the entire pig/pork business has derailed. When there is failure to acknowledge the prime importance of proper and scientific breeding, then it only ensures short term achievement. Most the pig varieties are reportedly lacking in superior germaplasm and so pigs have poor reproductive traits. Pig breeding also requires some technical knowledge on breed, selection of male and female pigs, heat detection, care and management of pregnant sow and newborn piglets etc. Another factor for the problem is that the local farmers generally castrate the male pigs which are much sought after. The piglets are also not used for future breeding but sold off for windfall profits. To promote the business, there is need to establish sufficient pig breeder farms to produce quality disease-free animals. Local farmers and entrepreneurs have to be identified who can establish genuine pig breeding farms and given needed incentive. Also mortality in the piglets and adults has to be greatly reduced with mass vaccination and de-worming. Improved biosecurity and hygiene at farm level are essential in controlling zoonotic diseases. What is still lacking today is state-of-the-art abattoirs. These are very crucial since it involves the human health hazard and need to optimize profitability. The Punjabi deal reportedly made between Nagaland government officials with their Punjab counterparts at a meeting recently in Punjab, for supply of pigs also includes training for progressive farmers and veterinary officers in Punjab. The hardy Punjab farmers are not only productive but also cooperative and honest. If the deal is successful then it would prove a boon for the pig market in Nagaland. Consumers will get not only affordable meat but also health certified product.

DailyDevotion What To Renounce We have renounced the hidden things of shame… —2 Corinthians 4:2 Have you “renounced the hidden things of shame” in your life— the things that your sense of honor or pride will not allow to come into the light? You can easily hide them. Is there a thought in your heart about anyone that you would not like to be brought into the light? Then renounce it as soon as it comes to mind— renounce everything in its entirety until there is no hidden dishonesty or craftiness about you at all. Envy, jealousy, and strife don’t necessarily arise from your old nature of sin, but from the flesh which was used for these kinds of things in the past (see Romans 6:19 and 1 Peter 4:1-3). You must maintain continual watchfulness so that nothing arises in your life that would cause you shame. “…not walking in craftiness…” (2 Corinthians 4:2). This means not resorting to something simply to make your own point. This is a terrible trap. You know that God will allow you to work in only one way— the way of truth. Then be careful never to catch people through the other way— the way of deceit. If you act deceitfully, God’s blight and ruin will be upon you. What may be craftiness for you, may not be for others— God has called you to a higher standard. Never dull your sense of being your utmost for His highest— your best for His glory. For you, doing certain things would mean craftiness coming into your life for a purpose other than what is the highest and best, and it would dull the motivation that God has given you. Many people have turned back because they are afraid to look at things from God’s perspective. The greatest spiritual crisis comes when a person has to move a little farther on in his faith than the beliefs he has already accepted.

Post-mortem

Can they educate before they vaccinate or medicate?

n about a month from now the MR campaign is well underway in our State of Nagaland. Statistics show that 7 Lakh children are targeted in Nagaland of the 410 million children in India, The reason given is to eradicate Measles and Rubella once and for all. It seems that this attempt has been made for years and the final target is 2020. Nagaland seems to be the State with only 53-58 % showing up compared to the over 95 percent government target between 9 months and 15 years they plan to vaccinate. What are the concerns? Those who want you to vaccinate their child( although the children have no choice in the matter) and those who don’t want to vaccinate their kids or have concerns to do so. First advice to any reader: do not get in fear, do your homework ,get informed. You do have a choice. The children don’t. But they-and their moms- might end up with possible lifelong consequences after it is all done. The rumour says it that if you do not vaccinate you will most likely get measles or rubella, you will not get a job, not be able to get in schools, you now become a threat to other kids . The other side says if you do vaccinate the possibility of vaccine side effects can be disastrous because of the many other ingredients that can be toxic, cause cancer, brain defect and cause other short term and long term effects esp for pregnant women. Who do you believe? Anyone with a smart phone can now easily do their own research. Look on the insert of the vaccine ( downloadable from the CDC and FDA dept in the USA, applicable here) where all side effects and those who definitely should not take it , are mentioned. Eg, the insert of MR mentions that if women are pregnant, they should not take this and if they plan to have children not to get pregnant three months after the MR vaccine. The deeper issue: Are we allowed to ask questions or give unbiased correct information that could avoid

medical conditions ? Can we ask if a court order was given? If this is mandatory why do parents have to give consent? If it is “pro or anti-vaccine”, why not say “pro-medicine or antimedicine” or “pro-blood test or anti-blood test”? Or is it pro-choice or no choice? Maybe the deeper issue is: can we make an educated choice ? But where is the info we need? Can we properly educate the people, esp those who cannot read, about the pros and cons of this vaccine which according to the insert should be done by health care workers? Have both sides been presented? Bill Gates- sponsor and partner of this campaign -likes to de-populate the world and he says one of the methods would be vaccination What can you do? 1/ -Stay calm, start informing yourself, and stay healthy. Pray over the vaccine if you do take it! You are allowed to! 2/-Inform yourself regarding the legal rights you have regarding this issue. Decide calmly! 3/- Strengthen your child’s immune system through clean water , sanitation good nutrition .Washing hands properly eradicates 50 percent of getting any disease. One lemon a day with peel or one quava will boost their immune-system, Quote from one MMR insert – ( this campaign will be the MR Vax- means excluding mumps) “The health-care provider should inform the patient, parent, or guardian of the benefits and risks associated with vaccination. For risks associated with vaccination see WARNINGS, PRECAUTIONS, and ADVERSE REACTIONS. Not vaccinating can mean Measles or Rubella. By isolation , proper care and nutrition your child can get over it quickly. The chance of your child dying of it is 1 in 8635. The chance of getting Rubella is 1 in 13 666. Leaflets of the campaign quote 49 000 and 30 000 but it is not compared with 410 million Indian children . Do your math. When you choose to vacci-

nate, the risks for vaccine injury are mentioned in the insert . Example brain related injuries and anaphylactic shock. There are 42 paragraphs devoted to possible reactions and precautions Do you know if you are exempted according to the guidelines? Only you will bear the consequences because you can’t blame anyone. Not vaccinating and the slight chance of getting measles and rubella will get you: “we told you”. Benefit of getting measles is lifelong immunity ( However the insert says you can get measles from the vaccine itself as well. Lifelong immunity not guaranteed) Will there be “ perfect immunity”? If your immune system is smart enough to recognize that the mutant virus in the vaccine is the same as the “wild virus” you might possibly encounter, maybe. Why do boosters have to be given if it is for life and has that fact of lifelong immunity been proven? If you do vaccinate and the child or you end up with a vaccine related injury, there is no one to blame either because the vaccine is given for free and you accepted it. Do your home work first before speaking out. Then when you speak out, stay humble, stay polite, but if you are convinced either way, say so. Avoid getting angry, violent, being obnoxious . Health care workers and media reporters are told to stay calm. So can you whether you decide for or against. Stand up calmly for your rights. Most in these campaigns are well meaning, caring and polite but they themselves might not have adequately been informed and presume the best. Do we have the right to inform people with the correct info so people can make an educated choice? Keep up with the West? Let’s start with clean water and clean sanitation and good nutrition for all citizens. That could eliminate a whole lot of problems and sickness right there! A concerned mother for all our children.

Abducting national workers at this juncture too reckless: NNPGS WC

he WC, NNPGs and GOI signed agreed position on 17th Nov. 2017, upon which the IndoNaga political conflict would be settled. There has been numerous rounds of intensive talks touching issues since. For anyone to claim there will be only one political talk, i,e with IM alone, he is either living inside a zoo or plain foolish, incapable of grasping reality. NNPGs, WC has deliberated with all Apex Tribal Hohos, GBs, Civil Societies and Naga intellectuals on a number of occasions laying bare the practical position of the Nagas as a whole and the best acceptable and honourable way forward. Why? Nagas can no longer live in an imaginary world. It is time to be practical about our existence and future. Having retained the essence and core values of our forefathers through mutually agreed position, Nagas must progress with the rest of the world with dignity and honour. The GOI will have to recognise Naga identity, history and political right in absolute clear terms. Nagas must find a solution in consonance with contemporary political realities. There is no confusion or ambiguity within WC or among Naga tribes since transparency and consultation is an essential component in the entire process. WC, NNPGs would like to make its position clear to the Naga people that the present negotiations with the GOI is not confined to the state of Nagaland, as some misinformed Nagas perpetually accuse NNPGs of WC do not require sensationalism and headline grabbing propaganda to stay relevant. To the WC, political negotiation and settlement is meaningless if Nagas and their ancestral territory in Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Assam are left in its present form in all aspects. The NNPGs Naga delegation have conveyed to the GOI interlocutor Mr. R.N Ravi in crystal clear terms that political agreement will not sustain untill and unless Nagas in Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh and Assam are made absolute masters over their ancestral lands and resources, natural or manmade, conforming to history and political right. WC NNPGs do not believe in isolating and ignoring Nagas outside Nagaland state. The Nagas in Myanmar and their ancestral land too has been deliberated at the negotiating table. Working Committee believes that Nagas across artificial boundaries must entrench our rights and attain

historical, political, cultural, economic and social progress on equal footing through the Agreement. The process of correcting historical errors committed by colonial powers, GOI and Burmese government shall, thus, be set into motion. It is very unfortunate to learn that in recent times there has been a recurrence in kidnapping, abduction and confinement of Naga National Workers by NSCN (IM) at Hebron camp. While no fatality has been perpetrated this time, the ghost of 1988 and aftermath should not be revived in Nagaland. Negative actions such as haphazard abductions and kidnappings, forced labour, physical torture and humiliating treatments under detentions are best avoided at this juncture. Most unfortunately, money ranging from Rs. 15,000/- to Rs. 1, 00,000/- are being demanded from detainees for their release. It is unimaginable that Nagaland would become a haven for abductors and ransom seekers in the garb of nationalism where the bona-fide citizens become unsafe in their own land Nagaland, God forbid, it should not happen. This characteristics do not conform to the principle of Naga brotherhood and fraternity. All National workers detained at Hebron camp must be released immediately unharmed at the earliest lest misunderstanding arises among the Nagas and consequences become too high a price to even imagine. As it is, some committees are observing Black Day in Manipur and elsewhere mourning their dead. None should walk this tragic path again. Nagas must work towards celebrating victory of a just cause and this is the aspiration of the WC, NNPGs. Those indulging in such profit making business may think twice before kidnapping or abducting someone’s son, father, brother, uncle or cousin. At this point of Naga struggle, all sides must make an effort to heal past wounds instead of cutting open the old scars. There would be small destructive minds in any organization, as past reveals, who would play spoilsport to common aspiration. Nagas must be on guard against these elements. All those who truly believe in ‘Nagaland for Christ’ must be guided by sanity and reason. Naga history should not be shamed again. The name of Christ and Naga people should not be taken for granted.

Paying the Price of Silence

he claim of one MLA of Assam in recent times regarding ownership of Dimapur smacks of mala fide intention, and is flawed on historical front. Firstly, the intention is certainly to foment enmity between the peoples of Assam and Nagaland. Moreover, an Assamese leader espousing the cause of the Kacharis at this juncture is laughable considering that the latter are treated as second-class citizens in their own State. We need no elaboration on this count. Secondly, the politician should study his own history to get his facts right. The claim that Dimapur was named after Hidimba is not supported by history. Scholars have time and again pointed out that Hidimba was an old name of Cachar. (A History of Assam, Sir Edward Gait) The report that the Kacharis ruled over vast swathes of areas between Dhansiri and Cachar is not entirely wrong. But after 1490 when the first recorded battle between the Ahoms and the Kacharis took place on the bank of river Dikhu where the latter defeated the former, the Kacharis slowly lost their hold over the areas mentioned, as the Ahoms, despite their defeat, gradually made inroads towards Dhansiri river. Dikhu river ceased thereafter to be the traditional boundary between the two nations. In 1531, a severe battle took place between the two armies in the south of what is now Golaghat where Detcha, the brother of Kachari king Khunkhara, was killed. Following this battle, the Ahoms penetrated as far as the Kachari capital Dimapur and the Kachari king Khunkhara fled. The victorious Ahoms then placed Detsung, a distant relative

of the Kachari king, on the Kachari throne. H owe ve r, i n 1 5 3 6 , Detsung quarreled with the Ahoms who then ransacked Dimapur. The Kacharis then fled from Dimapur and heading south west, set up their capital at Maibong on the banks of river Mahur. After the plains of Dhansiri were vacated by the Kacharis in the 15th century, tribesmen from the hills slowly occupied the fertile valley. Angami tribesmen from Western Angami and Chakhroma areas started trade and commerce with people of the plains for salt and other essentials. Chumukedima villagers recall the yearly tax their forefathers received in the form of salt and cattle from people located as far as Nowgong (Nagaon). This is confirmed by ER Grange, who, writing about the Kacharis in and around present-day Manja area (Mahong Dijao), in 1840 recorded: “The Cacharees here (Bokolea), till within two years past, have been obliged to pay tribute to the Nagas of Sumoogoding, to preserve peace. The tribute consisted of a cow or bullock, and one maund of salt per annum.” (Verrier Elwin, THE NAGAS in the Nineteenth Century, page 218) Alexander Mackenzie, narrating about ER Grange’s second expedition to the Naga Hills in 1840, mentions how the expedition resulted in burning of five villages and capture of eleven Naga prisoners. “Soon after Mr Grange had returned from the hills the second time, the two Ganw Boorahs of Samoogooting came down and entered into written engagements to be friendly, expressing a wish to settle on the plains. Lands east of Mohang Dijooa were promised them, and the Naga

prisoners were all released, but it does not appear that any active steps were taken to induce a Naga immigration to the plains.” (The NorthEast Frontiers of Bengal, page 106) In the same book, Mackenzie, writing about occupation of Chumukedima, mentions how all “Angami Nagas visiting the plains of Assam were to be furnished with passes… as they passed through Sumoogooting, where they were also to leave their spears.” In a footnote, the author states that the “boundaries of the District of the “Naga Hills” were thus fixed in 1867 – “Eastern Boundary – The “Doyeng” or “Rengmah” river. “Northern Boundary – A line from the confluence of the “Doyeng” and “Dhunseery” river along the “Dhunseery” for a distance of six miles, thence up the Nambar Nulla to its source and across country to a point on the “Doeegooroong” nulla, thence along it northwards for a distance of 7 ½ miles, from which point it takes a due westerly course to a point on the “Kolleeanee” river along which it runs for a distance of 28 miles. “Southern Boundary – A line along the crest of the Burrail range from the source of the “Rengmah” or the “Doyeng” to the small western feeder at the source of the “Dhunseery” river. “Western Boundary – A line from the crest of the “Burrail” range down the “Dhunseery” river for a distance of 26 miles, thence across the Hills to a point on the “Loongteng” river and along it to its confluence with the “Doyeng” river; across the Hills to the “Gungah Ghat” on the “Kopilee” rivers; and along it to the junction of the “Kopilee” and the “Doyeng”

rivers; …” However, due to lack of population, the Nagas could not establish more settlements in the plains till recent memory when other tribesmen from other parts of the then Naga Hills, chiefly through the involvement of the British administrators, settled in pockets after seeking due permission from the traditional landowners, namely, Chumukedima and Seitiekiema villages. Now, it is a historical fact that the Ahoms themselves chased away the Kacharis and ransacked their capital Dimapur. But, the Ahoms made no attempt to occupy Dimapur. In fact, Dimapur, in whatever array or disarray it was post Ahom-Kachari imbroglio in the 16th century, found mention and gained prominence only when the colonial powers, to appease the “wild” marauding Angamis who made frequent attacks on the tax-paying villages, released several Angami Naga prisoners and agreed to set up a “salt market” at “Dheemapore” way back in the mid 19th century. And if one were to go through the maps and descriptions of the early British officials who made daring expeditions to these wild and barbarous, uncharted regions of the world in their attempt to find routes to Manipur from Assam in the 19th century, present-day Assamese zealots would cringe and feel 2-feet small when they find that villages from present-day Bakolia were paying “tribute” to the Naga villagers of Chumukedima as far back as 1838! And what about this fantastic claim that Assam had leased Dimapur to Nagaland for 99 years in 1963? Bravo! This fellow needs a medal! We need to be coached by him as to how one can make oneself so stupid. We of the

Northeast need not travel all the way to Agartala to meet that gentleman who declared Internet was availed by a section of humanity since one lakh years back! Now, where is that document of 99-year lease? Who were the signatories? And where was/is it? As a matter of fact, Nagaland, based on 16-point Agreement of 1960, has more legitimate rights to claim vast swathes of land and forests presently located in Assam. The Agreement was a solemn agreement signed between Government of India and representatives of the Naga people. And the 12th and 13th points of the said Agreement, by invoking the provisions of Articles 3 and 4 of the Constitution of India, should be vigorously pursued and brought to fruition. However, Nagas have been too complacent for our own good. For instance, unilateral abrogation of Point #2 of the Agreement in 1972

by the Government of India when Nagaland was placed under Ministry of Home Affairs from the Ministry of External Affairs. Also, Point #11 was violated when in 1989, Nagaland, along with others, was denied the Special Category State status even though it was categorically specified in the Agreement that the Government of India would make special financial arrangements for Nagaland. The financial position of the State drastically worsened after 1989, and over the decades, we are now strapped with thousands of crores in deficit. We have remained silent on the land earmarked for us by the British; we have remained mute when provisions of a solemn Agreement were flagrantly and unilaterally abrogated by the Government of India, and we are now paying the price for our silence.

Laws inadequate to check money abuse in polls: CEC

NEW DELHI, SEP 15 (PTI): Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) O P Rawat said Saturday the present set of laws are “inadequate” to tackle the menace of black money in elections, and noted that Cambridge Analytica like “machinations” of data theft, data harvesting and fake news pose a potent threat to the electoral process in the country. Rawat, speaking on ‘challenges to India electoral democracy’ at a symposium, said democracy does not run on whims and it requires traits such as courage, character, integrity and knowledge that are diminishing and are on the “verge of extinction” in the country. The CEC, underlining a number of issues and challenges that face the electoral body, said clean elections are like a “well spring of legitimacy” for the leadership and the people of the country and if this was contaminated by such issues, the common man becomes “cynical” about the entire system, which is an area of concern. “With the rise of fake news, with the rise of make believe things, with the rise of all kind of machinations like data theft, data harvesting, profiling, targeted

Unemployment causing rapes: Haryana BJP MLA CHANDIGARH, Sep 15 (PTI): A BJP lawmaker from Haryana, Premlata Singh, on Saturday blamed “frustration” among unemployed youths as the reason for rapes in the country, triggering angry reactions on social media. “The frustration that has crept into the minds of our youths is one of the reasons behind such incidents (rapes). Youths who are frustrated, unemployed and unsure of their future commit such heinous acts,” the BJP lawmaker from Uchana Kalan said. “A wrong tradition has started in our society... Men develop bad intentions when they see a woman anywhere,” she added. Premlata Singh, whose husband is union minister Birender Singh, was commenting on the gang-rape of a 19-year-old woman in Haryana’s Rewari city.

national 5 LeT, HM militants killed in encounter in J&K

No pre-poll alliance in Telangana: Shah

Srinagar, Sep (PTI): Five militants belonging to Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) were killed in an encounter with security forces in Kulgam district of Jammu and Kashmir Saturday, officials said. Five militants have been killed in the operation at Chowgam in Kulgam district of south Kashmir, an Army official said here. He said weapons and war-like stores have been recovered from the encounter site. The operation is over, the official said. The encounter between the militants and security forces began this morning after the forces launched a cordon-andsearch operation in the area following intelligence inputs about the presence of militants there. While the forces were conducting the searches, the militants fired upon the forces, ensuing a gunfight. A police official said the militants belonged to two outfits of LeT and HM and their killing was a huge success for the forces. “It is a huge success for police and security forces. The militants belonged to both HM and LeT,” he said. He said most of the slain militants were “involved in a series of terror acts including killing of two bank employees and many policemen”.

Hyderabad, Sep 15 (Agencies): Refuting that the BJP has any understanding or pre-poll alliance with the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), BJP national president Amit Shah on Saturday said that his party will contest the upcoming assembly elections on its own and that there is no confusion about it, Livemint reported. Shah, who landed in Hyderabad on Saturday morning to launch the BJP’s poll campaign, stated that the BJP led centre gave Telangana over Rs. 2 lakh crore in the last 4.5 years, and alleged that the TRS did not utilise it well for the state’s development. Coming down heavily on TRS supremo and former chief minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, Shah claimed that the state government did not set-up the required infrastructure in many districts after the erstwhile nine (out of 10) were reorganised a few years ago. “We don’t oppose the reorganization of districts, but it is the responsibility of the government to establish collector offices, district police superintendent offices, new circles etc,” said Shah, while addressing a press conference at the BJP’s head office in Hyderabad on Saturday. The BJP national president alleged that the Rao-led government had blocked the Centre’s programmes in the state and that not

The RSS doesn’t even respect the national fag, Tejashwi said, questioning why the saffron group did not fly the tricolour at its headquarters in Nagpur. “Samay pe ho jayega [We’ll cross the bridge when we come to it],” Tejashwi said when asked about who among the Opposition leaders would be the prime ministerial candidate for the 2019 Lok Sabha election. And, what about Rahul Gandhi’s statement that he was ready to be the prime minister of India? Well, Tejashwi explained, Gandhi had said that he would be willing to be prime minister if his Congress emerged as the single-largest party in the 2019 Lok Sabha election. And, that is okay, Tejashwi said. “The party that is the single-largest will obviously claim the PM’s post. Why will they not?”

New delhi, Sep 15 (Agencies): The political limbo in Goa is likely to come to an end as the second senior most minister in the Manohar Parrikar government Ramkrishna, also known as Sudin Dhavalikar, has emerged as the future chief minister of the state, India Today reported. Two senior BJP observers arrived in Panaji today after CM Manohar Parrikar was flown to Delhi where he has been admitted to the AIIMS for further treatment. He was admitted to a private hospital in Candolim after suffering from high fever. BJP observers including organisation secretary Vijay Puranik took stock of the political situation after Parrikar left for Delhi. In 2014, Dhavalikar had worked up a storm when he insisted that bikinis should be banned on Goa’s beaches.

That’s the potent threat every democracy in the world is facing,” Rawat said at the event organised by the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Delhi. The CEC said the EC was well aware of these issues amongst many others similar to them. “Here in our country, the Commission is seized of issues such as cyber security, securing our data so that Cambridge Analytica kind of things do not happen over elections, about misuse and abuse of social media platforms, about fake news, about all kinds of ills that get into whether it is management of electoral rolls, campaign fi-

New Delhi, Sep 15 (Agencies): Will the Narendra Modi-led Bharatiya Janata Party be defeated by a united Opposition in the 2019 Lok Sabha election? He will be defeated, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav says, but not by any Opposition. “Modi will be defeated by the Indian public, especially the youth.” Tejashwi, the son of former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Prasad and currently the leader of the opposition in Bihar, was speaking at the India Today Mind Rocks 2018, Delhi. His session was titled, “BJP vs Opposition”, an appellation that Tejashwi expressed problem with. “The session should be called BJP vs Public,” Tejashwi said, echoing his remarks about the people of India being against the Modi government. “India’s youth feels

nance, polling process and technology,” he said. Specifically talking about the use of money power during polls, the top EC functionary said current laws were not of much help for them to ensure a complete check at this abuse and that is why “state funding” of polls was not possible in India at present. “Abuse of money is the main concern for India and in Indian elections. There has been a lot of talk for bringing about transparency in campaign finance, even people talk about state funding. “But, whatever legal framework is available as on date today, is not adequate to address this issue. And therefore, the commission has been suggesting a number of reforms in this direction,” the CEC said. On state funding, he said, the commission feels that “it won’t serve the purpose effectively because so long as you have torrents of money from such sources flowing into the election arena, the state funding is just like a fig leaf trying to control that torrent.” Rawat said effective use of media and curbing use of fake news and paid news were an important area on which the poll body has been working upon.

cheated,” Tejashwi said. “People won’t bring Narendra Modi back to power.” When asked about the Opposition’s strategy for the upcoming general election, Tejashwi said, “We are not against Modi. We are against the ideology of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh.” The RJD leader then went on to launch a full-on attack on the RSS, accusing the Bharatiya Janata Party’s ideological parent of “wanting to divide the country” and of “promoting commu-

more than 15% of the total beneficiaries had availed of the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bhima Yojana insurance scheme in Telangana. “Both the TRS and Congress do appeasement (politics),” added Shah. Shah, launching BJP’s campaign in the state, later proceeded to Mahabubnagar district to address a public meeting on Saturday. While the Congress, Telugu Desam Party and the Telangana Jana Samithi have stitched up a grand alliance, the BJP and TRS have both said that they will be contesting the upcoming assembly elections alone.

Shah criticises TRS for calling early polls

Meanwhile, according to India TV, Amit Shah questioned TRS for imposing early polls in Telangana, terming it an “additional burden” on the people of the state. Shah sought to know as to why the TRS imposed early polls on the state even when Lok Sabha and Assembly elections are scheduled to be held nine months later. Shah told a news conference that Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao had initially supported Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s idea of “one nation one election” but he was surprised when he suddenly changed his stand. “Rao and TRS have forced a small state to bear expenditure of two elections. BJP believes that TRS has put an additional burden of crores of rupees on people to further its political interests,” said the BJP chief. Shah said that the BJP was ready to give a tough fight to both TRS and opposition Congress in every constituency. He was confident that the BJP will emerge as a strong and decisive force in the state.

Nun rape case: Mulakkal steps down NEW DELHI, Sep 15 (Agencies): Jalandhar Bishop Franco Mulakkal, the accused in the Kerala nun rape case, has stepped down amid reports that the case has been brought to the notice of the Vatican. The church representative from India is in the Vatican and is likely to discuss the issue, news agency ANI reported. Bishop Franco Mulakkal said in a letter, “I would like to thank all of you for your continued support and prayers for me at this time continued problems affecting my Episcopal ministry. As you have probably come to know from the media the investigation into the allegations raised against me there are several contradictions in the evidences collected against me as per the report of the police. It is reported I am likely to be called for further clarifications by the investigating officer in Kerala.” “I leave everything into the hand of God as I await

the result of the findings of the team probing the allegation. In my absence Msgr. Mathew Kokkandam will administer the Diocese as is the normal practice when I am away from the Diocese,” he added. Meanwhile, the Jalandhar police served a notice to Bishop Franco Mulakkal, to appear before the Kerala police on September 19. The nun had recently sought urgent intervention of the Vatican for justice and demanded Bishop Franco Mulakkal’s removal as the head of the Jalandhar diocese, questioning why the church was “closing its eyes

to the truth”, when she had mustered courage to make public her suffering. She alleged that Bishop Mulakkal was using “political and money power” to “bury” the case against him. The nun has accused the clergyman of repeated sexual assault between 2014 and 2016. The bishop has, however, dismissed the allegations as “baseless and concocted”, insisting she levelled charges against the catholic order as it had rejected her demand for favours. Kerala police on Friday registered a complaint against the Missionaries of Jesus hours after the congregation released a photograph of the nun, seated with her alleged tormentor. The congregation put out the photograph in a release issued to the media to publish the findings of its enquiry commission, which looked into the nun’s allegations.

India, Serbia resolve to fight Army man involved in Haryana CBSE topper’s rape terrorism, enhance cooperation who gives them any leads. The second-year student who topped the CBSE board exam was allegedly raped till she fell unconscious, and dumped at a bus stand on Wednesday. “Pankaj Fauzi is one of the accused who is working in an army unit in Rajasthan.

According to her, there could be short term measures to contain the trade imbalance.

NEW DELHI, Sep 15 (Agencies): The government expects state-run banks to recover Rs 1.5 lakh crore of bad debt during the current financial year, twice the amount that lenders had managed to get out of defaulting companies. “We are aiming to double the NPA recovery in fiscal 2019. In 2017-18 total NPA recovery was around Rs 74,000 crore. We asked banks to match last full fiscal year recovery number by the end of second half,” a senior government official said. Although NPAs situation seemed to have improved a little, banks are not completely out of the woods yet. The government has been insisting on a focused recovery drive, including a special team to deal with the issue. Up to the June quarter, public sector banks recovered around Rs 36,500 crore with the amount expected to reach Rs 75,000-80,000 crore by September-end.

11 markets in the NonJapan Asian region, which continue to dominate and represent a 53 per cent share of the universe, with a total market capitalisation of over USD 4 trillion. The report further noted that in 2017 alone, Non-Japan-Asia-based family-owned companies generated 25.63 per cent greater cash flow return on investment (CFROI) than their non-family owned counterparts, and delivered a 4.2 per cent outperformance in annual average share price return since 2006. “This year we find family-owned businesses are continuing to outperform their peers in every region, every sector, whatever their size. We believe this is down to the longer-term outlook of family-owned businesses relying less on external funding and investing more in research and development,” said Eugène Klerk, Head Analyst of Thematic Investments at Credit Suisse and the report’s lead author. Further, out of the top 50 most profitable companies globally, 24 were from Asia, with a total market capitalisation of USD 748 billion. The list included 12 Indian family-owned companies with a total market capitalisation of USD 192.2 billion.

fiscal grew by 17.34 per cent to USD 216.43 billion. Trade deficit during the period widened to USD 80.35 billion as against USD 67.27 billion in the same period last year. Oil imports during April-August this fiscal grew by 53.35 per cent to USD 58.81 billion and non-oil imports were up by 7.84 per cent to USD 157.62 billion. The high trade deficit is one of the factors that dragged the rupee to below 70 levels. The rupee touched an all-time low of 72.91 on September 12. Today it closed at 71.84 against the dollar. Commenting on the figures, Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO) said that some of the small and micro sectors of exports are still reeling under pressure because of the liquidity crunch as banks and financial institutions have continuously been tightening their lending norms and ITC refund for exports still poses a challenge. It also raised concerns on the high trade deficit, primarily on account of swelling of crude imports bill due to rising global oil prices and higher gold import, which has further added pressure on Indian Rupee.

New Delhi, Sep 15 (Agencies): India ranks third globally in terms of number of family owned businesses with 111 companies of USD 839 billion total market capitalisation, followed closely after China with 159 firms and the United States with 121 firms, says a report. Indian family-owned companies generated a 13.9 per cent annual average share price return since 2006, compared to 6 per cent recorded by their nonfamily-owned peers, the report said. According to the ‘Credit Suisse Family 1000 in 2018’ report, published by the Credit Suisse Research Institute (CSRI), in terms of number of family owned businesses, within the non-Japan Asian region, China, India and Hong Kong dominate the list. These three jurisdictions together comprise around 65 per cent of the non-Japan Asian section of the CSRI’s database, and has a combined market capitalisation of USD 2.85 trillion (or 71 per cent) of the market share, reports PTI. Korea came in fourth place, with 43 companies (USD 434.1 billion market capitalisation), followed by Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand, each with 26 companies. The report covered

New Delhi, Sep 15 (PTI): The country’s exports rose at the fastest pace in three months to reach USD 27.84 billion in August on account of healthy growth in petroleum products, engineering, pharma, and gems and jewellery shipments. Imports too grew by 25.41 per cent in August to USD 45.24 billion due to costlier crude oil shipments. In August, the growth rate in overseas shipments touched a three-month high of 19.21 per cent. Earlier in May, exports had recorded a growth of 20.18 per cent. Trade deficit during the month narrowed to USD 17.4 billion as against

USD 12.72 billion in the same month last year, according to the data released by the commerce ministry Friday. In July, the trade deficit soared to a near fiveyear high of USD 18.02 billion. Exports of petroleum products, engineering, pharma and gems and jewellery in August rose by 43.25 per cent, 31.81 per cent, 28.52 per cent and 34.76 per cent respectively. Oil imports in August grew by 51.62 per cent to USD 11.83 billion and nonoil imports were up by 18.17 per cent to USD 33.41 billion. Gold imports in August jumped by 92.62 per cent to USD 3.64 billion. The continuous fall in the value of domestic currency appears to be helping exports.

3 killed, 248 injured in Gaza clashes

A woman holds a Palestinian flag during clashes with Israeli troops on the GazaIsrael border, east of Gaza City, on September 14.

Jerusalem, Sep 15 (IANS): At least three Palestinians were killed and hundreds injured on Friday afternoon during clashes with Israeli soldiers on the border between eastern Gaza Strip and Israel, the Gaza Health Ministry said. Ashraf al-Qedra, spokesperson of the Health Ministry in Gaza, said that three Palestinians were shot dead and hundreds injured by Israeli soldiers’ gunfire

in various areas in eastern Gaza Strip, close to the border with Israel. He said that 120 of the 248 injured were referred to hospitals for treatment. Eighty of them were shot by live bullets. Two of them are voluntary paramedics. On Friday afternoon, hundreds of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip arrived at five different spots in the eastern area of the coastal enclave, close to the border

with Israel as part of their participation of the 25th Friday of the “Great March of Return”, Xinhua reported. They waved Palestinian flags, burned tires and chanted slogans against Israel. Some of the demonstrators released dozens of arson balloons into Israel. Local media reported that around eight protesters managed to cut the barbed wire of the fence on the border in southern Gaza Strip,

and infiltrated into Israel for a short while and then returned into Gaza. An Israeli army spokesman confirmed in a press statement that around 13,000 Palestinians joined Friday’s protests in eastern Gaza, adding that its tanks targeted military facilities belonging to Hamas in eastern Gaza Strip. The Israeli media reported that Palestinian activists threw three fire bombs at an Israeli army force stationed at the border between eastern Gaza Strip and Israel, adding that dozens of arson balloons were released from Gaza into Israel, causing large fires. Abdulatif al-Qanou’a, Hamas spokesman in Gaza, said in a statement that the “Great March of Return” rally will continue until it achieves its goals. “We will use all means and instrument to break the siege,” said Sami Abu Zuhri, another spokesman for Hamas. The anti-Israel rally, which began on March 30 and has been going on every Friday, has so far left 177 Palestinians killed and more than 19,000 others wounded, Al-Qedra said.

4 killed in Army helicopter crash in Afghanistan Herat, Sep 15 (AFP): An Afghan military helicopter carrying weapons and ammunition burst into flames during an “emergency landing” in western Afghanistan, killing at least four people, including the pilot, officials said Saturday. The aircraft was flying from Herat to the neighbouring province of Farah on Friday night when it experienced “technical problems”, Farah provincial governor spokesman Nasir Mehri told AFP. Farah police spokesman Mohibullah Mohib confirmed the death toll. The defence ministry said five people were killed. A technical team has been sent to the area to investigate the accident the defence ministry said in a statement. But in a WhatsApp message to journalists, Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said militants had shot down the “enemy helicopter”. The Taliban has stepped up attacks on security forces as Afghan and international players ratchet up efforts to convince the group to engage in peace talks.

Hurricane Florence kills 7 in US

Washington, Sep 15 (IANS): At least seven people were killed as hurricane Florence made landfall in the US state of North Carolina, battering the state with a powerful combination of wind and rain. Warnings were issued about the risk of life-threatening flash flooding in parts of North and South Carolina as well as in Virginia. It was downgraded from a hurricane to a tropical storm on Friday, but continued to soak the East Coast area with rain, downing trees and damaging homes. Some areas grappled with intense flooding, while hundreds in the city of New Bern and North Carolina required rescue in the early

hours of Saturday. Parts of New Bern and North Carolina were 10 feet underwater after local rivers overflowed their banks. Thousands of people were staying in emergency shelters. Evacuation warnings were issued for 1.7 million people in the region, the US media reported. Florence was slowly grinding over the eastern states, with winds of 65mph (105km/h). It was expected to keep lashing parts of North and South Carolina into the weekend. Up to 40 inches of rain and storm surges pushing water inland will produce catastrophic flash flooding, the National Hurricane Centre said. Two people in Car-

teret County died due to the storm, officials said. A mother and her infant were killed in Wilmington when a tree fell on their home. According to officials, the child’s father was also transported to hospital with injuries. Two men in their 70s were killed in Lenoir County. One was killed while connecting an electrical generator and another man was killed in a wind-related incident when checking on dogs outside his property. A county official said that a woman died from cardiac arrest in the town of Hampstead after emergency responders had their route to reach her blocked by downed trees.

Buzzcocks host Mark Lamarr Bradley Cooper reveals how Hailey Baldwin addresses Former charged with common assault having a child has changed him Justin Bieber marriage rumors F B

Justin Bieber(R) and Hailey Baldwin

fter multiple outlets reported that the lovebirds tied the knot Thursday in New York City after they were spotted at the Marriage Bureau earlier that day, Baldwin took to Twitter to put the rumor to rest. “I understand where the speculation is coming from, but I’m not married yet!” she wrote. A source told ET at the time that while Bieber and Baldwin did register for a marriage license, they were only getting a license and did not have a marriage ceremony. Display nothing; This is on Publish with no configured Image Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin Register For Marriage License at NYC Courthouse Additionally, TMZ is reporting that Bieber and Baldwin are most likely getting married out of

the country, as early as next week and possibly in Canada, where the pop star recently purchased a new home. The marriage license Bieber and Baldwin obtained becomes valid after 24 hours and remains valid for another 60 days anywhere in the state of New York. Should the lovebirds want to get married overseas, they would have to have a civil service in the state first to make it legal. “Justin and Hailey are still planning to have a wedding or celebration with their closest friends a n d f a m i ly,” a n o t h e r source tells ET. “However, Justin is very spontaneous. [He] keeps Hailey and everyone on their toes.” Fans of Bieber also speculated that rumors of the marriage were true

when his mother, Pattie Mallette, took to Twitter early Friday mor ning. “Love is unconditional,” she wrote. T h i s n ew s c o m e s just two months after Bieber proposed to the model while they were vacationing together in the Bahamas. The couple was friends first, meeting nearly 10 years ago and briefly dating in 2015 and 2016. However, the feelings between Bieber and Baldwin “never really went away,” according to a third source, which is why it wasn’t alarming when they rekindled their romance this summer. “Justin has always been in love with Hailey and is looking forward to being married,” the source told ET earlier this month. “Justin has been in the spotlight for a long time, and his childhood was accelerated. After years of ups and downs, Justin took some time to evaluate everything in his life, took time off his tour [and] music and got to enjoy a more simple life.” “With that time, Justin knew he wanted to spend his time with Hailey and have a future with her,” the source added.

radley Cooper is opening up about how being a dad has influenced his career choices. The 43-year-old “A Star Is Born” actor and director tells NPR that having a family is “a miracle.” “I guess having a child, and having a family of my own — which is a miracle and something I’ve always dreamt of — has opened me up even more, I guess, to the day, and to be present,” he tells the outlet. Cooper -- who shares a 1-year-old daughter, Lea, with his girlfriend Irina Shayk -- also said that his newfound family life has made him more choosy about the projects he takes on. “I spent about 15 years going from movie to movie to movie. And then I hit 39 and I stopped and I said, ‘What do I really want to do?’” he recalls. “I want to tell Joseph Merrick’s story in ‘The Elephant Man.’ So I did that for a year. Then this story came to me, ‘A Star Is Born,’ and then I spent the next four years doing that.” His new career plan of only signing on to films he cares about is something he truly believes in and is looking forward to. “The one thing that I know in the future is: It’s worth all the time to dedicate, even if one piece of art comes out of it in a half a decade, that would

still be incredible as long as I can feel like it’s the movie I wanted to make, which is this movie,” he says of “A Star Is Born,” which he stars in alongside Lady Gaga. The co-stars hit it off quickly thanks to, Cooper believes, their similar upbringings. “ H e r e ’s t h e o t h e r thing that connected Stefani [Germanotta, Gaga’s given name] and myself right away, is that we were very, very loved as children. And when I meet people that have had that similar upbringing, I can just see it in them,” Cooper says. “And that’s the thing I want my daughter to have — I just always want her to feel loved.” Cooper’s praise for Gaga didn’t stop there, though. The actor went on to say that the “Born This Way” singer gave him confidence throughout the making of the film.

“I knew nothing about her. I didn’t even know, really, what she looked like before I met her. And I was — I couldn’t believe how comfortable she made me feel, and how present she was — is. And then we went to the piano and sang, and it was this kind of wonderful thing. I couldn’t believe it,” he says. “... The first time we sang together — everything’s live; we sing everything live in the movie... And I turned to Lady Gaga, who was singing next to me, and she was looking at me like I was [my character] Jackson Maine. And when you’re in a scene, and the actor is fully believing that you’re the character, you can’t not believe it yourself. So she really gave me that confidence.” When ET recently caught up with Cooper, he doled out even more praise for his onscreen leading lady. “The chemistry was instant -- the minute that she was kind enough to let me come and talk to her about this potential project,” Cooper told ET of working with the pop star. “And so we were like, what are we going to do with this? So the fact that we forged a friendship by creating art together is kind of the most ideal way to use that chemistry.” “A Star Is Born” hits theaters on Oct. 5. (FoxNews)

I m ove d away a s quickly as possible and jumped out of the bed, full of alarm … I found my clothes quickly … and ran out of his room and into my own.”

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Luka Modric

Madrid, Sep 15 Agencies): Croatian footballer Ivan Rakitic has said that his national team-mate Luka Modric should win everything that star striker Lionel Messi cannot. The comment came after Modric was named as UEFA Best Player of the Year and earned a nomination for FIFA’s 2018 Best Men’s Player award. “If there is an individual prize that Lionel Messi can’t win, then there’s no doubt that this season it should go to Luka Modric. It wouldn’t surprise me if he were to win with many more votes,” Marca.com quoted Rakitic, as saying. “This has been his year and I am really happy for him. If Messi isn’t the best, then it has to be Modric,” he added. Modric rose to heights after his sensational performance in the 2018 FIFA World Cup. He guided the Croatian team to the World Cup final, only to see the side ultimately losing 2-4 to France. He was awarded the Golden Ball at the tournament for his outstanding performance. K Y M C

and Draxler profited to mark his first start of the season with a goal after 23 minutes. The Italy international played a delightful chipped pass for Draxler to control the ball on his head before lifting a header over the onrushing Ruffier to earn the reigning champions a somewhat undeserved lead. The away side threatened once more before the break with a quick counterattack but Salibur was unable to control inside the penalty area when wellplaced and that was as good as it got for the visitors. The Parisians doubled their advantage five minutes after the restart when Cavani was hauled down in the penalty area by Perrin and the Uruguayan striker dusted himself down to slot his third goal in three games. PSG did not have to wait much longer to move 3-0 up when Di Maria lashed home from close range with 14 minutes remaining before substitute Diaby scored his first for the club to add gloss to the scoreline.

Paris, Sep 15 (Agencies): Paris St Germain maintained their perfect Ligue 1 record after overcoming a resilient St Etienne to triumph 4-0. Head coach Thomas Tuchel rotated his starstudded team, with their Champions League clash at Liverpool on Tuesday in mind, as Neymar and Kylian Mbappe were left out of the matchday squad completely. It proved to be an emotional match for St Etienne as they honoured their former defender William Gomis, who died last week at the age of 19, by emblazoning his name on their shirts. And Les Verts dominated the opening 45 minutes before PSG registered their fifth win from five league matches thanks to goals from Julian Draxler, Edinson Cavani, Angel Di Maria and substitute Moussa Diaby. Di Maria put the hosts on the front foot with a mazy run past three St Etienne defenders before squaring to Draxler, but Stephane Ruffier produced

Hazard hat-trick sends Chelsea top rived to end the resistance, first drawing a Bamba challenge that Hazard converted from the spot in the 80th minute, and then delightfully getting himself on the scoresheet by picking out the top right corner three minutes later. Now, Chelsea begin their UEFA Europa League campaign in Greece against PAOK on Thursday while Cardiff host champions Manchester City in the Premier League next Saturday.

Manchester City beat Fulham 3-0

Chelsea’s Eden Hazard fights for the ball against Cardiff City players during an EPL match on Saturday.

L o nd o n , S e p 1 5 (Agencies): Chelsea nudged ahead of Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table as Eden Hazard’s hat-trick helped secure a come-from-behind 4-1 win over Cardiff City on Saturday. The Belgium star needed just six first-half minutes to erase an early deficit and later returned to seal his treble from the spot as the hosts continued their perfect start to the new season. Cardiff did fleetingly threaten an almighty upset thanks to Sol Bamba’s

shock 16th-minute opener before Maurizio Sarri’s men took command on the way to a convincing fifth straight victory. The in-form Hazard instigated a hasty turnaround that became a comfortable three points when Willian curled home seven minutes from the end, ensuring the Blues inched into top spot on goal difference. Neil Warnock’s prematch promise not to “shut-up shop” took shape when Bamba stunned an expectant Stamford Bridge crowd, prodding in defen-

sive partner Sean Morrison’s header. Neil Etheridge twice denied Mateo Kovacic an immediate response but could do little about Hazard’s unerring bottomcorner finish that restored parity. The comeback was complete a minute before the break as Olivier Giroud’s gorgeous cushioned touch freed his team-mate to force a second in off Bamba at close range. Cardiff remained in with a chance of extracting something from the match until substitute Willian ar-

Mayweather returning to fight Pacquiao Los Angeles, Sep 15 (Agencies): Floyd Mayweather has announced he will return to fight Manny Pacquiao this year, saying “another nine-figure payday is on the way”. Mayweather posted a video of the pair on his Instagram revealing the news of his comeback 13 months on from his knockout win over Conor McGregor in Las Vegas. The post was captioned: “I’m coming back to fight Manny Pacquiao this year. Another nine-figure-pay-day on the way.” Pacquiao called out Mayweather following his world title win over Lucas Matthysse in July, but ‘Money’ refused the offer of a rematch, saying “like beating him once was not enough”, instead seeking to play promoter for his long-standing rival. “I can’t knock Manny Pacquiao for what he wants to do, that’s his prerogative,” he told Fighthype. com. “If he still wants to go

Leroy Sane marked his return to the Manchester City starting lineup with a quickfire goal to ignite a 3-0 victory over Fulham. Germany winger Sane tapped home after 96 seconds and David Silva netted his 50th Premier League goal midway through the first half.

torious in their ‘Fight of the Century’ showdown in 2015 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas - winning the contest by unanimous points decision. Amir Khan singled out Pacquiao as his No 1 target after beating Samuel Vargas by points on his return to the welterweight division, saying Kell Brook would “wait around” to fight him.

Mayweather has announced he will return to fight Manny Pacquiao this year.

Sane’s return by gifting him a simple finish. Bernardo Silva dazzled with sublime close control before playing in Sterling, a combination of Bettinelli and his crossbar denying the England winger. Sterling and Bernardo Silva were both involved when David Silva crashed via the underside of the bar in the 21st minute. Ederson beat away a couple of Andre Schurrle strikes as Fulham retained their attacking intent, but the visitors were indebted to stunning Bettinelli stops from Sterling and Sane before half-time. Sergio Aguero crossed as Sterling crowned a lightning break 98 seconds into the second half and the Argentina striker soon made way for Gabriel Jesus, who almost scored with his first touch. There was more wayward finishing from the Brazil striker as City’s forwards queued up to get in on the act, with Bernardo Silva blazing over in the 81st minute to miss out on the goal his wonderful efforts merited.
