TRUMP SIGNS $717 BN DEFENSE BILL The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is the most significant investment in our military and our warfighters in modern history, says the US President This year’s NDAA authorizes about $639 billion for the base budget of the Pentagon and defense programmes of the Energy Department. It also allows for another $69 billion for a war fund known as the Overseas Contin-

IANS, WASHINGTON

U

S President Donald Trump signed into law the $717 billion annual defense policy bill, the earliest in the year the bill has become law in more than four decades.

“The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is the most significant investment in our military and our warfighters in modern history, and I am very proud to be a big, big part of it,” Trump said before signing the bill this week.

“It was not very hard. You know, I went to Congress, I said let’s do it, we got to do it. We’re going to strengthen our military like never, ever before, and that’s what we did,” he said.

Trump signed the bill during a

300 priests accused of abusing thousands of children in US WASHINGTON: Internal documents from six Catholic dioceses in the US state of Pennsylvania showed that over 300 “predator priests” have been credibly accused of sexually abusing thousands of children, according to a grand jury report.

“We believe that the real number of children whose records were lost or who were afraid ever to come forward is in the thousands,” CNN quoted the report as saying this week.

“Priests were raping little boys and girls, and the men of God who were responsible for them not only did nothing; they hid it all. For decades” Monsignors, auxiliary bishops, bishops, archbishops, cardinals have mostly been protected; many, including some named in this report,

According to the report, the accused priests victimized boys, girls, teens and pre-pubescent children.

“We will replace aging tanks, aging planes and ships with the most advanced and lethal technology ever developed, and hopefully we’ll be so strong we’ll never have to use them,” Trump said.

The bill also gives troops a 2.6 percent pay raise, the highest in nine years, The Hill reported.

This week, Trump made no mention of the bill’s namesake.

With the NDAA signed into law, Congress now turns its attention to passing a defense spending bill to make the dollar amounts authorized by the NDAA a reality.

The House passed a Pentagon spending bill in June, while the Senate is expected to start considering its version as soon as this week.

hite House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said this week that she could not “guarantee” that US President Donald Trump had never used the word “nigger” to refer to blacks, after the accusation of an African American former adviser who said that she has tapes proving that he said it.

Sanders noted at her daily press briefing that Trump has specifically denied using the term on Twitter adding that “I can certainly say I’ve never heard him use that term or anything similar”.

Sanders said, however, that she “can’t guarantee” that the President had never used the pejorative term since she had not been at every working meeting he had ever held in the White House, Efe reported.

The White House spokesman

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee (Photo: IANS)

was responding to the accusations of Omarosa Manigault-Newman, the former Trump advisor on African American issues, who said that she has audiotapes on which the president uses the term “nig-

ger”, considered taboo in the US because of its demeaning and heavily racist tone, not to mention its links with slavery.

Sanders said that ManigaultNewman’s comments were regrettable and charged her with a lack of “integrity” for — by her own admission — having secretly taped conversations with the president and other top administration officials.

Trump, meanwhile, in a Twitter message on August 14 morning responding to Manigault-Newman’s remarks, said: “When you give a crazed, crying lowlife a break, and give her a job at the White House, I guess it just didn’t work out. Good work by General Kelly for quickly firing that dog!”

Referring to the harshness of those insults, Sanders said that the president was expressing “his frustration” with the ex-adviser.

Young women unhappy with Trump’s presidency IANS, WASHINGTON

S

even in 10 American women aged between 18 and 35 years old are dissatisfied or angry about the Donald Trump’s presidency, the highest percentage of any age group of women in the US, according to a poll released this week.

Only 9 percent of them say they are happy with Trump in the White House, Xinhua quoted a CBS NewsRefinery29 survey as saying.

Among this woman age group, 53 per cent think Trump’s policies

have mostly hurt women, while 70 percent feel their rights and liberties are being threatened rather than protected by what’s going on in Washington.

By more than three to one, younger women prefer the Democratic Party win control of Congress.

More of these women identify as Democrats than Republicans in the first place, the poll showed.

However, it isn’t certain that many of them will turn out, the poll revealed, citing this women age group is the least likely of any age group to say they will definitely vote

in the 2018 midterm election: only 30 percent say they definitely will, far lower than among older women (76 percent say they will vote).

The top reason of these women who say they may not vote this year is not being interested in politics and elections (31 percent), followed by not feeling like their vote matters (19 percent), not liking the candidates running (14 percent), and being too busy (14 percent).

The survey is conducted by YouGov which interviewed 2,093 US female adults online between July 26 and 30.

Forex reserves comfortable to counter rupee fall: Jaitley Geo-political pressures, along with outflows of foreign funds and high crude oil prices dragged the Indian rupee to its record low IANS, NEW DELHI

A

day after the rupee fell to its record low, Union Minister Arun Jaitley said on Wednesday that India holds sufficient foreign exchange reserves to mitigate any undue volatility in the foreign exchange market.

Geo-political pressures, along with outflows of foreign funds and high crude oil prices dragged the Indian rupee to its lowest ever intraday level of over 70 against the US dollar on Tuesday when it plunged to 70.08 — the lowest ever — against the greenback.

However, intervention by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and stabilization in the global currency markets pared the rupee’s early fall.

At the end of the intra-bank trade session on Tuesday, the Indian rupee strengthened by four paise at

69.90 against the dollar, compared to Monday’s close of 69.94 per greenback.

“India’s foreign exchange reserves are comfortable by global standards and sufficient to mitigate any undue volatility in the foreign

exchange market,” Jaitley tweeted.

“However, India’s macro fundamentals remain resilient and strong.

With Prime Minister Narendra Modi giving the Indian Space

Research Organization the target to be achieved in the next four years, Sivan told IANS: “Our plan is to have a human being in space for seven days and not less than that.

“He will be in a spacecraft, 300400 km above earth,” Sivan said, as he explained that the rocket to be used for the manned mission would be a Geosynchronous Satel-

“Recent developments relating to Turkey have generated global risk aversion towards emerging market currencies and the strengthening of the dollar.

“The developments are being monitored closely to address any situation that may arise in the context of the unsettled international environment,” Jaitley said in a tweet.

According to analysts, the rupee’s swift move past 69 happened due to foreign institutional investor outflows and the impact of global sentiment. “On a medium term basis, the rupee will need to depreciate further to keep up with the inflation differentials with other trading partners. However there could be a minor reversal of this depreciation on a short term basis when the global situation stabilizes,” said ICICI Bank Global Markets Head B.

“There will be two unmanned space missions before the actual manned space mission,” Sivan added.

In his Independence Day address to the nation, Modi said: “In space technology, we have dreamt something; our scientists have dreamt something. And I am happy to announce that by 2022, the 75th Independence year, we are planning a manned space mission.

“We will put an Indian in space by 2022 or earlier,” Modi said.

Asked about the first animal flight before the actual manned mission, Sivan said those things have to be discussed.

BRIEFS Pro-Khalistan rally raises questions NEW DELHI: Describing the proKhalistan rally in London by the Sikhs as a conspiracy to divide the country, the Congress on Monday questioned the Narendra Modi-led government’s silence on it.

“As a sinister conspiracy is hatched to revive militancy in Punjab, why are BJP-Akali Dal mum?

Why has the 56’ Modi government been stunned into a conspiratorial silence? Isn’t it a conspiracy to break the country? Why silence then?” Congress spokesman Pradeep Singh Surjewala said in a tweet attaching a news report about the pro-Khalistan rally.

The Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), a human rights advocacy group with radical leanings, held what it calls a “London Declaration” on an independence referendum for Punjab at Trafalgar Square in London on Sunday.

Ashutosh quits Aam Aadmi Party NEW DELHI: Senior leader Ashutosh jolted the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Wednesday by quitting it citing personal reasons, but AAP convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal refused to let him go.

Ashutosh, who joined the party in 2014 after being a journalist for 23 years, took to Twitter to announce he was quitting and thanking the party for its support.

“Every journey has an end. My association with AAP which was beautiful/revolutionary has also an end. I have resigned from the party (and) requested (it) to accept the same,” he tweeted.

“It is purely from a very very personal reason. Thanks to (the) party (and those) who supported me throughout. Thanks,” he added.

Retweeting Ashutosh’s tweet, Kejriwal said he cannot accept the resignation, at least in this lifetime.

Former LS Speaker Somnath Chatterjee dead, nation mourns IANS, KOLKATA

V

eteran parliamentarian Somnath Chatterjee, the first Communist Speaker of the Lok Sabha who had defied his party’s call to quit the post, died here on Monday following a cardiac arrest and prolonged old age-related illness.

Chatterjee was given a 21 gun salute in the West Bengal Assembly, while the nation mourned the death of the barrister-turnedpolitician, known for championing the cause of the downtrodden.

Chatterjee, 89, leaves behind his wife, a daughter and a son.

“He died at 8.15 a.m,” Bellevue Clinic CEO Pradip Tondon told IANS. Ailing for a long time, Chatter-

jee’s condition turned grave on Sunday after he suffered a heart attack.

On August 7, he had been admitted to the clinic in a critical condition

due to a kidney-related ailment and put on ventilator support.

A former Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) central committee member, Chatterjee was Lok Sabha Speaker during the first United Progressive Alliance (UPA-1) rule from 2004 to 2009.

It was during this stint that direct telecast of the Zero Hour started in 2004, while the Lok Sabha television channel came into existence in 2006.

However, on July 23, 2008, Chatterjee was expelled from the Communist Party of India-Marxist “for seriously compromising the position of the party” as he refused

to resign as the Speaker after the CPI-M withdrew its support to the UPA-1 government over the IndoUS civil nuclear deal.

President Ram Nath Kovind and Prime Minister Narendra Modi led the nation in paying glowing tributes to Chatterjee.

Calling him “a veteran parliamentarian who had a forceful presence in the House”, the President tweeted: “A loss for public life in Bengal and India. My condolences to his family and innumerable well-wishers.”

Modi described Chatterjee as a stalwart of Indian politics who made parliamentary democracy richer.

Kabul attack ‘heinous, cowardly’ Up to 48 students were killed and 67 others injured in the suicide bomb blast on a private education center in Kabul’s Dasht-e-Barchi area; the UNSC has condemned the attack IANS, UNITED NATIONS

Taliban militants overrun Afghan Army base, 17 soldiers killed

T

he UN Security Council (UNSC) has condemned the attack on an education center in the Afghan capital that killed at least 48 people as “heinous and cowardly”.

In a press statement released on Wednesday, the Council reaffirmed that terrorism in all its forms and manifestations constituted one of the most serious threats to international peace and security.

The UNSC underlined the need to hold perpetrators, organizers, financiers and sponsors of these acts of terrorism accountable and bring them to justice.

Members of the Council also expressed their sympathies and condolences to the families of the victims and to the Afghanistan government and wished a speedy and full recovery to those who were injured.

SHORT TAKES

Pak elects National Assembly Speaker ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-eInsaf (PTI) leader Asad Qaiser was elected as the Speaker of the National Assembly or the lower house of the country’s Parliament on Wednesday, beating PPP stalwart Khursheed Shah, who was fielded by an alliance of the opposition parties.

Qaiser received 176 votes to be elected to the speakership, whereas Shah got 146 votes. The election took place through a secret ballot. A total of 330 votes were cast, out of which 322 were accepted and eight were rejected, Dawn online reported.

London attack: Trump urges toughness WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump urged that tough action be taken against the person responsible for the alleged terrorist attack on Tuesday morning in front of the UK Parliament in London.

“Another terrorist attack in London...These animals are crazy and must be dealt with through toughness and strength!” Trump tweeted.

At least three people were injured when intentionally hit by a car Tuesday morning.

A man was arrested on suspicion of terrorism offenses after a car crashed into a number of cyclists and pedestrians before hitting security barriers outside the UK Parliament on Tuesday, the police said.

UN General Assembly President Miroslav Lajcak called the attack “unacceptable”, adding that the General Assembly continued to stand against terrorism and with Afghanistan.

Up to 48 students were killed and 67 others injured in the suicide bomb blast on the private education center in Kabul’s Dashte-Barchi area. No group claimed the responsibility for the attack.

MAIMANA (AFGHANISTAN): At least 17 Afghan soldiers were killed after Taliban militants overran an Army base in the northern part of the country following a three-day intense fighting, officials said on Tuesday.

The clashes started last Saturday after hundreds of Taliban militants stormed and besieged Camp-eChenayeeha base in remote Ghormach district of Faryab province in which about 106 Army soldiers were stationed, Xinhua news agency reported.

The Taliban attack in the north coincided with clashes in southeastern province of Ghazni, which lies on the main highway linking Kabul

with the south. Hundreds of people have been killed or injured during clashes there since last week. Heavy clashes and airstrikes were reported on Tuesday as fighting in the city entered the fifth day.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs has warned that residents of Ghazni were struggling to access basic services and medical care.

“The besieged soldiers showed stiff resistance and fought back the attackers for the past three days but the base was captured by militants as the soldiers received no help or supplies despite repeated requests,” said Sebghatullah Selaab, an official from the provincial council.

Search on for Italy bridge collapse survivors IANS, ROME

R

escue teams were continuing on Thursday their search for possible survivors among the rubble of a bridge that collapsed in Genoa in northwestern Italy, killing at least 39 and injuring 16.

Although there were still no official figures on the number of people missing, Italian authorities did not rule out a possibility of a dozen bodies trapped under the rubble.

The search and rescue operations were concentrated among the cement blocks of the pillar, which collapsed along the left bank of the Polcevera River, Efe news reported.

Meanwhile, 15 people continued to be hospitalized in the San Martino hospital, nine of whom were in a

State funerals are expected to be held on Saturday for some of the victims.

N

obel Prize-winning writer V.S. Naipaul, known for his celebrated works like “An Area of Darkness” and “A House for Mr Biswas”, has died at age 85. The literary fraternity mourned his passing and said his rich legacy will live on for generations to come.

No sooner did Lady Nadira Naipaul confirm on Sunday morning that her husband had died

peacefully in London, condolence messages from readers and admirers flooded the social media.

He was a giant in all that he achieved and he died surrounded by those he loved, having lived a life which was full of wonderful creativity and endeavour,” Lady Naipaul said.

Indian President Ram Nath Kovind and Prime Minister Narendra Modi led the nation in saluting the writer who shared deep ancestral ties with - and love for - India. Also

investigation into the incident.

A roughly 100-meter section of Morandi Bridge collapsed amid torrential rains on Tuesday, sending dozens of vehicles crashing onto a riverbed, railway lines and two warehouses. The government on Wednesday said it would be revoking concessions to Autostrade per l’Italia, the company that manages the country’s highways, following the accident.

“The leaders of Autostrade per l’Italia must resign, first of all. And given that there have been serious breaches, we have activated procedures for the possible revocation of their concessions and to impose fines of up to 150 million euro ($170 million),” said Transport Minister Danilo Toninelli.

Notwithstanding their differences with Naipaul, both were confident that his works would be read by generations to come.

Rushdie, who himself has Indian roots, said he had disagreed with Naipaul on politics and literature but felt sad “as if I just lost a beloved older brother”.

Added writer-historian William Dalrymple: “Even if you disagreed with much that he wrote, particularly about India, you couldn’t help be stimulated, influenced and catalyzed by the brilliance of his laser sharp vision.”

Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul was born in 1932 in Chaguanas on the island of Trinidad and Tobago to a family that had arrived from India in the 1880s.

Indian woman skydives with Tricolor in Finland Shital Rane-Mahajan, a mother of two, dived from over 5,000 feet with a Tricolor to mark India’s 72nd Independence Day QUAID NAJMI, MUMBAI

F

ulfilling a long-cherished dream, Indian adventurist Shital Rane-Mahajan on August 15 dived from over 5,000 feet in Finland with a Tricolor to mark India’s 72nd Independence Day. The Tricolor, measuring 10 feet by six feet, was handed over to Shital by Indian Ambassador to Finland, (Ms) Vani Rao after the IDay celebrations by the Indian community settled in Helsinki.

“From Helsinki, we drove down to the Utti Skydiving Centre, around 100 km away, for the skyjump, which was absolutely smooth and successful,” an elated Shital told IANS on phone from Finland.

The 36-year-old, a mother of two, said that the weather was perfect for the adventure and that she jumped off an aircraft from 5,000 feet and landed at the designated spot, with the huge flag fluttering all through the descent.

“It all happened within 100 seconds. I stepped out of the aircraft, opened my parachute and then the flag bag tied to my waist, unfurled the Tricolor and continued with my dive,” Shital said.

Awaiting below on terra firma was her anxious husband Vaibhav and her nine-year-old twin sons Vrushabh and Vaishnav, besides a large number of onlookers who cheered her. Though Shital — a

India taking its rightful place as leading global power: US WASHINGTON: Greeting India on its 72nd Independence Day, US Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo this week said a “fellow democracy and a friend” was taking its rightful place as a leading global power with its democratic values and inclusiveness.

“On behalf of the Government of the United States of America, I extend my best wishes to the people and government of India on their Independence Day. Since gaining its independence 71 years ago today, India has set an example for South Asia and the world by supporting democracy, diversity, and the rule of law-values shared by the US,” Pompeo said in a statement.

“As members of the oldest and largest democracies, the people of

Prior to her, renowned Indian adventure sportswomen Rachel Thomas and Archana Sardana have performed similar skydives on various occasions with the Tricolor, making Shital the third civilian to do so.

the US and India have always enjoyed strong bonds of friendship.

We are grateful for the vibrant Indian-American diaspora and the growing number of young people strengthening ties between our countries as exchange students.”

He said the values shared by the two countries contribute to inspiring collaboration in health, energy, environment, science, and high technology that will fuel the jobs and prosperity of the future.

—IANS

“Now, my ambition is to skydive with the Tricolor in India, especially since civilian skydiving of certain categories has been banned in the country since 2002,” she said.

In February, Shital hit the headlines when she skydived from 13,000 feet over Pattaya, Thailand, sporting a colorful ‘Nav-wari Sari’ (traditional Maharashtrian nineyard sari).

Indian community celebrates Independence Day in Poland WARSAW: The Indian communitybased in the Polish capital celebrated the 72nd Independence Day this week with great patriotic fervor.

Hundreds of Indians along with their Polish friends assembled in the Indian Embassy early morning and were greeted by newly-appointed Indian Ambassador Tsewang Namgyal.

Namgyal unfurled the tricolor and joined the people there when the national anthem was played at the venue. He then read a message by President Ram Nath Kovind delivered on the eve of Independence Day.

Addressing the Indian community in Poland, Namgyal said: “You are an important bridge between the two important nations. Your hard work and your commitment speaks (for) itself.”

Kirti Gahlwat, a yoga teacher sponsored by the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR), displayed her talent and mesmerized the audience with her remarkable asanas.

She was followed by Kathak dancer Jigna Dixit, who was also sponsored by the ICCR to promote the dance form in Poland. Dixit was joined by several Polish students.

Indian-American researchers unleash turmeric’s power Peter Stang at the University of Utah on ways to be able to render curcumin soluble, deliver it to infected tumors and kill the cancer cells.

Because platinum is a commonly used cancer therapeutic agent in the clinic, the researchers decided to experiment with a drug consisting

A

team of Indian-American researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and at the University of Utah at Salt Lake City, has used an ingenious process to enable curcumin to kill cancer cells.

Curcumin is the active ingredient of turmeric (haldi), the ubiquitous kitchen spice that gives curry its yellow color. Turmeric has been used in India for thousands of years as a spice and medicinal herb because of its powerful anti-inflammatory and strong antioxidant property.

Curcumin is also known to exhibit anti-cancer properties, but its poor solubility in water had impeded curcumin’s clinical application in cancer. A drug needs to be soluble in water as otherwise it will not flow through the bloodstream.

Despite decades of research, the

development of efficient strategies that can effectively deliver poorly water-soluble curcumin to cancer cells had remained a challenge.

A team headed by Dipanjan Pan, associate professor of bioengineering

at UIUC, has now found a way out.

“Curcumin’s medicinal benefit can be fully appreciated if its solubility issue is resolved,” Pan told this correspondent in an e-mail.

Pan’s laboratory collaborated with

of a combination of platinum and curcumin. “It is a combination of clever chemistry and nano-precipitation utilising host guest chemistry,” Pan explained. “The sophisticated chemistry leads to self-assembled hierarchical structure that drives the solubility of curcumin and

simultaneously delivers an additional anticancer agent, i.e. platinum.

The combined therapeutic effect — of curcumin and platinum — is lethal for the cancer cells.”

The team has reported its work in the “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” in the US. According to their report, the metallocyclic complex created using platinum “not only enabled curcumin’s solubility, but proved to be 100 times more effective in treating various cancer types such as melanoma and breast cancer cells than using curcumin and platinum agents separately”.

“Our results demonstrate that curcumin works completely in sync with platinum and exerts synergistic effect to show remarkable anticancer properties,” says the report.

“The platinum-curcumin combination kills the cells by fragmenting its DNA.”

With the win, England took a 20 lead in the five-match series.

Having conceded the firstinnings lead by 289 runs, India’s batting line-up could notch up only 130 runs in their second innings to add to their first innings total of 107.

Seamers Stuart Broad and James Anderson took four wickets each, while fellow seamer and Man of the Match Chris Woakes picked up two. The fourth day started with England declaring their first innings at 396/7, taking a lead of 289 runs. Woakes (137) remained unbeaten.

MUMBAI: Former India cricket captain Ajit Wadekar passed away this week after a prolonged illness.

He was 77.

Wadekar, who played 37 Tests, led India to historic triumphs in the West Indies and England in the 1970s.

Under him, India won five matches in the West Indies in the early 1970s before beating England in a three-match series.

Wadekar, who scored 2,113 Test runs with 14 half centuries and a century, led India to a third successive series victory, beating England once again in 1972-73.

He also appeared in two Oneday Internationals.

An aggressive left-handed batsman, Wadekar made his first class debut in 1958-59 before making his India debut in 1966-67.

After his retirement, he also served as the Manager of the national team led by Mohammed Azharuddin in the 1990s. —IANS

Already in the backfoot after losing the first two Tests at Edgbaston and Lord’s, India find themselves in a must-win situation in the fivematch Test rubber with all eyes on the non-performing batting order with the exception of skipper Virat Kohli.

Vengsarkar, who was the chairman of selectors when Kohli made

his debut, has now called for the inclusion of the explosive southpaw in the playing XI. “Rishabh Pant should get in.

Apart from Kohli, nobody has shown that they could score runs

here. Whether it’s English or Australian conditions, you have to adapt quickly. You have to apply yourself and get runs,” Vengsarkar was quoted as saying by BBC Radio.

“You have to give respect to the bowlers,” he added.

If Pant gets his maiden Test cap in Nottingham, that means Dinesh Karthik will be shown the door.

Karthik, with scores of 0, 20, 1 and 0 in the four innings so far, has failed to justify his inclusion in the side.

FIFA rankings: India up at 96th place NEW DELHI: The Indian football team on August 16 climbed one spot to the 96th in the recently released FIFA rankings.

India were ranked 97 in the previous rankings but moved up a rung after FIFA implemented a new ranking system called ELO where points are added and subtracted to the team’s existing tally before every match.

IFFM Awards: Manoj, Rani named Best Actors Hirani won the Best Director for Sanju, while the IFFM Vanguard Award went to Ranbir Kapoor for his ‘breakthrough performance’

RADHIKA BHIRANI, MELBOURNE

R

ajkumar Hirani’s Sanju on August 12 walked away with the Best Film honor at the Westpac IFFM Awards night, where Manoj Bajpayee won the Best Actor for his yet-to-release Gali Guleiyan and Rani Mukerji was named Best Actress for her performance in Hichki.

Rani, who impressed with her performance as a woman faced with Tourette’s Syndrome in Hichki, walked away with two honors at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) as she was also bestowed an ‘Excellence In Cinema’ award.

Veteran actress Simi Garewal, looking elegant as ever in her trademark pristine white, gave away the honor to Rani, who has been a part of the film industry for over two decades.

Overwhelmed by the honor, Rani thanked her fans world over for loving her and her work through the years.

Sanju, a biopic on the life of Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, while the IFFM Vanguard Award went to actor Ranbir Kapoor for his “breakthrough performance” in bringing alive Sanjay’s tumultuous life journey on-screen.

The director told IANS here that he is happy with the recognition for the movie and is excited about showcasing the movie at La Trobe University here, with Sanju cowriter Abhijat Joshi and actor Vicky Kaushal.

Vicky won the supporting actor

‘Takht’ is a big one for me, says Bhumi Pednekar MUMBAI: Actress Bhumi Pednekar says Karan Johar’s newly announced magnum opus Takht is a big project in her acting career.

Bhumi was at an event where she was appointed brand ambassador of Raisin Global, a contemporary fusion wear brand for women, this week, when she spoke about Takht.

“I am very excited about this magnum opus as it’s a big one for me. It has a beautiful star cast. In fact, everybody who is in the film are people that I admire as actors.

“It’s a great honor for me to be working such great actors and to be directed by a veteran. I am a very big Karan Johar fan ever since I was a child. So honestly, it’s very special feeling and it’s still sinking in. I am still dealing with it and I am just so nervous about the film.”

Takht also features Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt, Anil Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal and Janhvi Kapoor.

Before making it as an actress, Bhumi worked as a casting execu-

tive for Yash Raj films.

Asked whether her stint as casting executive has helped in her acting, she said: “Definitely. It benefited me a lot in my acting because I feel my experience working as casting executive was equivalent to going to any film school.

“I worked with different directors where I used to conduct auditions of different actors, so I got fair amount of idea about what is required and what is not required to be an actor. I was enacting film scenes for 3 years of my life working as casting executive.” —IANS

honor for his well-deserved performance as Kamli in “Sanju”, and Richa Chadha won it too as she won the jury’s heart with her power-packed role as a brothel owner in Love Sonia.

The jury members for the fest, launched by Mitu Bhowmick Lange, comprised Simi Garewal, Sue Maslin, Jill Bilcock, Nikkhil Advani and Geoffrey Wright.

Wright, known for the Russell Crowe-starrer “Romper Stomper”, told IANS that he was mighty impressed by the variety that Indi-

an cinema currently has on offer.

He said he feels that “perhaps it has gone from recreation to being serious cinema”.

India’s colorful and diverse culture was very much a part of the awards celebration as there were the beats of the dhol, performers dressed in traditional Indian classical attires, Odissi dance, Bhangra and more.

Composers Sachin-Jigar added the chutzpah with some of their Bollywood tracks.

The inclusion-themed ninth edition of the gala gave a Diversity Award to Freida Pinto, who shot to fame and prominence first with her role in Oscar-winning drama Slumdog Millionaire. In her upcoming film Love Sonia, Freida is seen in a never-seen-before avatar.

Tabrez Noorani-directed Love Sonia, which opened the IFFM gala and left the audience moved with a story around sex trafficking, won the Best Indie film.

“I think what we can expect from the final season of GoT is just a real push. Like in the last couple of seasons, we have seen the pace of the show increase with the stakes getting higher and higher,” Emmanuel told IANS.

Nandita Das’ Manto trailer launched MUMBAI: First things first. What shines the brightest in the trailer of Manto is the art direction and the cinematography. Swathed in sepia tones and bright rusty colors denoting a time that has clocked the past but not been forgotten in the present, the look of the film is so vivid and nostalgic, it conveys both regret and urgency.

Female directors reflexively gravitate towards the correct colors to convey a past that could well return sometime very soon in the future.

Manto’s controversial writing, his vivid description of sexual violence and political turmoil, have been discussed and damned for decades.

He is relevant to our times even if we have moved on to Chetan Bhagat.

‘Satyameva Jayate’ is a film for masses

I

t is easy enough to ridicule Satyameva Jayate. God knows, it renders itself vulnerable to severe slamming. It wears its jingoistic patriotism on the sleeve and every other visible part of its canvas, growing more and more shrill with every frame and dialogue.

Yup, these kinds of tactless films get easily trolled, or stoned as we earlier used to refer to the savage lynching of crude cinema.

But hang on. Satyameva Jayate (SJ) is not designed for those who dug their grey cells into Newton and came out feeling like alumni on a space odyssey.

This is a film for the masses, the commoners who everyday have to face discrimination and corruption on the streets where a lot of people don’t just work but also live sleep and defecate.

Road rage for them is not about a dent in their gleaming cars. It’s about survival.

For all its sins of loutish characterization and aural extravagance the film throws a very opportune question at us: why do we tolerate corruption in our system on such a hideously aggravated scale? Is cor-

If a society doesn’t have law enforcers who do their jobs honestly, the law-breaks are bound to be on a rampage.

Too crass for your tastes? Well, let me tell you I’ve seen a cop react exactly this way to a destitute man’s lamentation on the street.

Truth can often be much cruder than fiction.

ens of thousands of commoners joined Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP President Amit Shah in the final journey to bid adieu to Atal Bihari Vajpayee as the former Prime Minister’s body was taken to Rashtriya Smriti Sthal on the banks of Yamuna river for the last rites on August 17.

The journey began from the BJP’s new central office on the Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg.

Modi and Shah walked behind the flower-decked gun carriage carrying the body of Vajpayee draped in the tricolor as security personnel kept a tight watch.

People from across the country, many of them teary-eyed, threw flower petals on the casket all through the three-km route as an expression of their love, respect and admiration for the late leader.

M

uch as he was revered as a stalwart politician, former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who passed away at the age of 93, was widely recognized as a key poet in Hindi, who took poetry beyond the pages of his collections and recited them at numerous public fora. He used poetry as a medium to give expression to his deepest thoughts.

As the news of his sad demise plunged the nation into mourning, his

eloquent verses came swimming before the eyes of his admirers. One particular episode that deserves mention took place in the year 1988 when the Bharat Ratna awardee was in the United States for kidney treatment.

In a letter to playwright and his contemporary Dharamvir Bharati from the United States during his treatment days, Vajpayee said he peeped into the eyes of death” and captured the agony in a poem titled Maut se than gayi (Faceoff with death).

survival loomed large, Vajpayee described in the poem that he had almost accepted the end.

“I had no intention of fighting/ there was no promise of meeting again/ she (death) blocked the path and stood on the way/ in a moment she became larger than life,” he wrote.

In the letter originally written in Hindi, Vajpayee added: Maut ki umar kya hai? Do pal bhi nahin/ Zindagi silsila aajkal ki nahin/ Main ji bhar jia/ Main man se maru/ Lautkar aaonga/ Kuch se kyun darun, reflecting that death too is temporary and lasts only for a while in an ageless cycle of life.

The former Prime Minister noted that he had lived to the fullest and would die with satisfaction, and would again return from his travels.

special report

Vajpayee: A man of moderation who raised India’s global stature Former PM stunned the world by making India a declared nuclear state and then almost went to war with Pak before making peace with it in the most dramatic fashion IANS, NEW DELHI

H

e was a man of moderation in a fraternity of jingoistic nationalists; a peace visionary in a region riven by religious animosity; and a man who believed in India’s destiny and was ready to fight for it.

Former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee (93), who died on August 16, will go down in history as a person who tried to end years of hostility with Pakistan and put development on the front burner of the country’s political agenda.

He was also the first non-Congress Prime Minister to complete a full five-year term.

Even though he lived the last 13 years of his life in virtual isolation, dogged by debilitating illnesses and bedridden, he has left an enduring legacy for the nation and the region where he was much loved and respected across the political spectrum and national boundaries, including in Pakistan.

In the tumultuous period he presided over the destiny of the world’s largest democracy, Vajpayee stunned the world by making India a declared nuclear state and then almost went to war with Pakistan before making peace with it in the most dramatic fashion. In the process, his popularity came to match that of Indira Gandhi, a

woman he admired for her guts even as he hated her politics.

After despairing for years that he would never become Prime Minister and was destined to remain an opposition leader all his life, he achieved his goal, but only for 13 days, from May 16-28, 1996, after his deputy, L.K. Advani, chose not to contest elections that year.

His second term came on March 19, 1998, and lasted 13 months, a period during which India stunned the world by undertaking a series of nuclear tests that invited global

unprecedented ways. The BJP’s election strategy rested on seeking a renewed mandate over three broad pillars of achievement that the government claimed — political stability in spite of the pulls and pressures of running a multiparty coalition; a “shining” economy that saw a dizzying 10.4 percent growth

ATAL BIHARI VAJPAYEE (1924-2018) reproach and sanctions.

Although his tenure again proved short-lived, his and his government’s enhanced stature following the world-defying blasts enabled him to return as Prime Minister for the third time on October 13, 1999, a tenure that lasted a full five-year term.

When finally he stepped down in May 2004, after an election that he was given to believe he would win, it marked the end of a long and eventful political career spanning six decades.

Vajpayee had gone into these elections riding a personality cult that projected him as a man who had brought glory to the nation in

in the last quarter of the previous year; and peace with Pakistan that changed the way the two countries looked at each other for over 50 years.

The results of the elections could not have come as a greater shock to a man who was hailed for his achievements and who was named by Time magazine as one of the 100 influential men of the decade.

‘Who’s going to listen to the voice of sanity?’

TARUN BASU, NEW DELHI

I

t was the summer of 1996.

The Congress government of Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao had lost the general election and, for the first time, there was an opportunity for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), headed by the moderate and well-liked Atal Bihari Vajpayee, to take power.

He lacked parliamentary majority but nevertheless made the bid to form a government and become Prime Minister — an ambition that he had long nurtured but which seemed elusive despite being in public life as a popular leader for long.

The moment it became clear that Vajpayee would be the man

BJP veteran L.K. Advani in a conversation with Atal Bihari Vajpayee. (File Photo)

to lead the next government in India, I made a beeline to his house at 5 Raisina Road which was almost a stone’s throw from the Press Club of India. Vajpayee

was a people’s man and security was light around him those days. I and a colleague, Mayank Chhaya, opened the gates of his bungalow and walked in to his secretary’s

office. I asked his aides if he was busy. One of them pointed outside the window.

There, standing all by himself, in an inconspicuous corner of the bungalow, seemingly staring into space, was the man of the moment — in his trademark starched white dhoti and collarless kurta — who would be the Prime Minister of India in a few days.

We congratulated him. He smiled and ushered us in. Vajpayee had often wondered aloud whether he would forever remain prime minister-in-waiting as the BJP, with its hardline Hindu nationalist ideology, was not a popular favorite of the country then. But Vajpayee, with his affable personality, riveting oratory,

an image of moderation and with friends across parties was one name that was being talked about as an acceptable alternative for those who were getting increasingly disillusioned with the corruption-tainted Congress.

Vajpayee, then 71, and the BJP, did form the government, but it lasted only 13 days in his first stint at governance.

He never had the numbers and made his resignation announcement almost offhandedly after two days of divisive debate on a confidence motion. The motion was never put to vote as its result was foregone.

Even the BJP’s opponents then paid tribute to the party for not attempting any horse-trading.

India celebrates

72nd Independence day

Defining moment for India Setting the stage for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections from the Red Fort, Prime Minister Narendra Modi vouches for taking the country to new heights IANS, NEW DELHI

S

etting the stage for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on August 15 projected himself as an impatient agent of change, castigated the Congress-led UPA for its “governance failure” and promised housing, power, water, sanitation and healthcare for all in his mission to take the country to new heights.

He also announced that the ambitious Prime Minister’s Jan Aarogya Abhiyan (PMJAA), dubbed “Modicare”, for health insurance coverage of Rs 5 lakh each to 10 crore families will be launched on September 25 on the 102nd birth anniversary of Deen Dayal Upadhyaya, the founder of Bharatiya Jana Sangh, the BJP’s predecessor.

In a strong election pitch, Modi reached out to Dalits, youth, farmers, tribals, women, fishermen, security forces, middle class and upper middle class by referring to the work done by his government and his endeavour to improve their lives, especially the poor.

In his last Independence Day speech at the Red Fort ahead of the next general elections, Modi said there was “senseless” criticism against him and asserted he was impatient and restless agent of change for eliminating poverty and

bringing all-round development.

Five crore people, he said, have been brought out of poverty in the last two years.

The 80-minute address, however, avoided any reference to foreign policy issues, including Pakistan, or the controversies surrounding the spate of recent incidents of lynching, the National Register of Citizens in Assam and the Rafale jet deal.

Breaking his silence in the conext of rape and sexual exploitation in

welfare homes in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, Modi said there was a need to attack such a mindset by putting the fear of the law that had been made stringent. He said law was supreme and no one could take it into their hands.

Referring to Jammu and Kashmir, Modi repeated the lines from his last year’s August 15 speech that the Kashmir problem can be resolved only by embracing its people, not with bullets or abuses.

Reaffirming his mantra of “sabka saath, sabka vikas” (take everyone along, development for all), the Prime Minister said there would be no discrimination against any section and there would be no nepotism and favoritism. “I want to reiterate my pledges — housing for all, power for all, clean cooking (gas) for all, water for all, sanitation for all, skills for all, insurance for all, connectivity for all. We want to go ahead with these programs.

“People make senseless criticism against me. But whatever may be said, I want to publicly acknowledge that I am restless because several countries have marched ahead and I want to take the country ahead of them. I am impatient because children are still suffering from malnutrition. I am eager to provide quality of life and ease of living to country men. I am impatient to provide health cover to each of the poor so that they can fight against diseases. I am eager because we have to lead knowledge-based fourth industrial revolution,” he said.

Answering critics who question his emphasis on cleanliness and the efficacy of the campaign, Modi cited a WHO report, which said that the Swachh Bharat Mission had saved the lives of three lakh poor children.

Modi turned poetic before winding up his long speech, saying that the country’s fortunes were being transformed. “We have to make a new dawn and create a new India.

We want to move ahead with the dream of reaching the crescendo of development.”

He said the world had accepted that India was synonymous to “policy paralysis and delayed reform”.

“But, now the world is saying that policy decisions are being taken as per the ‘reform, perform and transform’ norm.”

Don’t be distracted by contentious issues: President IANS, NEW DELHI

A

sserting that India was at the cusp of achieving many of its long-awaited goals, President Ram Nath Kovind said “contentious issues and extraneous debates” should not distract the people.

In his address to the nation on the eve of 72nd Independence Day, he referred to various issues and said these may have held true 10 or 20 years ago or even earlier to some extent but “even so we are at a juncture in our history that is different from any period that we have so far experienced”.

“We are at the cusp of achieving many of our long-awaited goals.

Universal access to electricity, the elimination of open defecation, the

elimination of homelessness, the very elimination of extreme poverty is achievable and attainable. We are at a pivotal moment. Let con-

tentious issues and extraneous debates not distract us,” he said.

Kovind said if freedom was defined in narrow political terms,

then August 15, 1947 marks a closure. “But freedom is a broader concept. It is not fixed and finite.

Freedom is a constant and relentless endeavour. Even decades after 1947, each one of us can contribute in the manner of a freedom fighter. We can do so if we expand the frontiers of freedom and of opportunity for our fellow Indians and our beloved India.”

Referring to the resolve of various sections in nation building, the President said that the reality was that every Indian who does his or her job with sincerity and commitment, who contributes to society by being true to a professional ethic, be it the doctor’s ethic, the nurse’s ethic, the teacher’s ethic, the public servant’s ethic, the factory worker’s ethic,

the business person’s ethic, the ethic of those who have to care for ageing parents - each of these and many others are in their own way upholding the values of freedom.

“They are providing the fruits and goods and services of freedom to fellow citizens. Every citizen of India who does his or her duty sincerely, fulfils a personal and professional obligation and keeps to a given word is, at a fundamental level, upholding the principles of our freedom struggle,” he said.

“I would argue that every Indian who does not jump the queue and respects the civic space and rights of those ahead in the line also lives up to the principles of our freedom struggle. It’s a very small gesture. Let us try and abide by it.”

W

est Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee this week said the people of the country and its institutions must strive to remain “independent” in the true sense of the word.

Banerjee unfurled the tricolor and attended a colorful parade at the arterial Indira Gandhi Sarani (erstwhile Red Road), as West Bengal joined the nation in celebrating the 72nd Independence Day. In a midnight tweet on the occasion, Banerjee called for cherishing the “idea of India” for which the freedom fighters had laid down their lives. “Our country must reach the glorious heights that the founding fathers of our Constitution envisioned,” she tweeted greeting “all brothers and sisters”.

Her ministers, senior bureaucrats and police officers, armed forces officers and members of the

Various state government departments also brought out colorful tableaux, highlighting their achievements, some of the government schemes and Bengal’s rich cultural heritage. After the Trinamool came to power in 2011, Banerjee started the ritual of the Independence Day parade at the Indira Gandhi Sarani.

Earlier, Banerjee was present at the customary midnight Independence Day celebration organized by her party Trinamool Congress at South Kolkata’s Hazra Crossing.

mid talk of early elections, Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao this week appealed to people to continue their support in his pursuit to transform the state into ‘a golden Telangana’.

The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) chief, who recently dropped hints of elections being advanced, said the blessings of the people were a source of strength for him.

In his speech at the main official function to mark India’s 72nd Independence, he recalled the struggle for Telangana state under his leadership and said the people did not rest till achieving the goal which was considered impossible by many.

He claimed that the government not only put to rest all doubts about the viability of Telangana as a state, but made it a model for the entire country.

NEW DELHI/JAMMU: The Indian Army and China’s People Liberation Army (PLA) this week held two special meetings of border personnel at Nathu La in the Sikkim sector and Ladakh region in Jammu and Kashmir to boost mutual trust and promote peace.

Both the meetings were held on the Indian sides to commemorate the 72nd Independence Day of India. The PLA delegations, comprising several officers and soldiers, attended the celebration following an invitation.

In Sikkim, the Defense Ministry said: “The celebration took place in an atmosphere of warmth and friendship, with an aim of enhancing mutual trust and promoting border peace and tranquility.”

She also announced extension of free milk distribution in school from class one to eight from three days to all week days, along with mid-day meals under the Annapurna scheme. She said a fund of Rs 2.3 billion has been set aside for the scheme in schools.

“Children registered in Anganwadi centers under the age group of three to six years, pregnant women and teenage girls will be given milk for three days in a week.

The government will provide Rs one billion for the plan,” she said.

Raje hoisted the national flag at SMS Stadium, saying September will be celebrated as nutrition month where awareness will be spread about nutritional aspect of food. “The government will spend Rs 7.75 billion on constructing 94 new school buildings and 7,080 additional classrooms in 2,400 schools.”

Indian Origin Store Clerk Shot Dead in Store

Entrepreneur, DJ Sukhjinder, Makes a Difference with RIA’s Money transfer service

Indian American Convicted of Attempted intentional Case

Alpeshkumar Prajapati

BY A STAFF WRITER ACON, GA - A convenience store worker was confronted by two gunmen while heading into work on Tuesday morning.

The Gulf Food Mart clerk Alpeshkumar Prajapati, known as A.P. to customers and coworkers, was led by gunpoint into the building where he was fatally shot, according to video footage from the store at the corner of Bartlett Street in the 2800 block of Napier.

It was not immediately clear if anything was taken. A Bibb County Sheriff’s Office news release said investigators are still trying to sort out what happened inside the store.

When deputies arrived, 36-year-old Alpeshkumar Prajapati was found lying on the floor in a puddle of blood just inside the front door.

Investigators are piecing together video surveillance images taken from a recently enhanced camera system at the store. One video from Tuesday morning shows a hooded gunman leading Prajapati into the store.The masked man had his left hand on Prajapati’s shoulder and his right hand holding a gun to the worker’s back.

The actual shooting is not shown in that piece of footage. They left the store in an unknown direction.

Prajapati was still alive but gravely wounded when he was rushed to Medical Center, Navicent Health, where he died at the Trauma Center at 9 a.m., deputy coroner Lonnie Miley said.

Manishkumar M. Patel DJ Sukhjinder Singh

BY A STAFF WRITER ICHMOND HILL, NY- Loud music and wild parties are probably what comes to mind when we hear the words disc jockey (DJ). Sukhjinder Singh is not one to argue against that, having worked as the DJ in the successful Punjabi Mela concert in New York last May. But try asking South Richmond Hill residents and they will be quick to say that Sukhjinder is not your ordinary DJ. DJ Sukhjinder is more than loud music and wild parties. DJ Sukhjinder is also all heart.

Born in Bholath, a town in Kapurthala district in the state of Punjab, India, DJ Sukhjinder went to the U.S. in 2000 For years, DJ Sukhjinder tirelessly worked multiple jobs, Then in 2012, DJ Sukhjinder opened his very own CD/DVD store in South Richmond Hill, NY. And his formula for success.

Since then, DJ Sukhjinder has dedicated himself to helping make things easier for the

R

South Richmond Hill community. To this end, DJ Sukhjinder now offers DJ, photography, videography services and financial services in his CD/DVD store. DJ Sukhjinder processes international money transfers, domestic money orders, and bill payments. For all these, DJ Sukhjinder has partnered exclusively with RIA Money Transfer: “RIA is great! They have competitive fees, best rates, and extra mile service.

DJ Sukhjinder continues, “With RIA’s money transfer service, I have yet to hear a customer complaining that money was not received. Instead, customers are happy that loved ones don’t have to go out of their villages to get the money. To them RIA is reliable and convenient. And because customers are happy with RIA, I am happy with RIA.” Visit DJ Sukhjinder at his Ria location, 116-01 101st Ave, South Richmond Hill, NY. He is currently offering fee-free bill payments to all new and existing customers.

New Science of Spirituality Meditation Center Inaugurated

BY A STAFF WRITER ISLE ,IL - Thousands of people from over thirty different countries gathered in Lisle, Illinois on July 28th for the inauguration of the new National Headquarters for the Science of Spirituality. Over the course of three decades, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj has been devoted to spreading the message of personal transformation through meditation on the inner Light and Sound. His teachings have impacted the lives of millions.

Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj was accompanied by delegates from the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives at the ribbon cutting ceremony. The organizations new headquarters embodies love, grace, and universality. Combining design elements from the East and the West, the spiritual master’s goal is to bring together people from all walks of life. The ribbon-cutting took place in front of the reflecting pool and a three-ton sculpture named “The Meditator,” which embodies the Science of Spirituality logo.

The architect, Gensler, is a world renowned collaborative architectural design firm, while the general contractor, Skender, has been the builder of choice for many of the world’s leading brands. The Science of Spirituality Meditation Center, built in compliance with green standards, is one of Gensler’s and Skender’s most recent and successful projects.

A panel of honored guests spoke during the inauguration program, which took place in the main hall following the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The first speaker, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj, expressed his gratitude to the guests and talked about the four main purposes of the Meditation Center.

U.S. Congressman Bill Foster, from the 11th District of Illinois, spoke about how the Science of Spirituality has brought together people from all backgrounds. “I cannot tell you

L

(L-R) Wheaton Mayor Michael Gresk, Mata Rita ji, Sant Rajinder Singh ji Maharaj, U.S. Congressman Bill Foster & Villae of Lisle Mayr Chris Pecak

how proud I am to look out at the wonderful diversity in this audience and think how it reflects the diversity of these communities, of the state of Illinois, the United States and all of humanity. Thank you for representing them.”

Kathryn Kruger read a welcome letter from U.S. Senator Dick Durbin, Illinois and Marina Faz-Huppert, the Chicago Director for U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth, Illinois, read the Senator’s congratulatory letter.

U.S. Representative Grace Meng from New York wrote: “I commend Science of Spirituality for its unwavering dedication to supporting its community and beyond,” after mentioning the organization’s affiliation with the United Nations as an NGO and praising its commitment to enriching the lives of those it serves, All thanks and appreciation to the tireless efforts of Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj

whose vision for humanity is both individual and global. It is one in which all people can realize the true value of their deepest self. Through meditation, we deepen our commitment to serving the world with love and compassion. Through meditation, we realize that all life forms are vital and valuable members of one family of God. When the Meditation Center opens its doors to the public in September.

Indian American Research Team Use Power of Tumeric to Fight Cancer

Dipanjan Pan

BY A STAFF WRITER HICAGO, IL- A team of Indian American researchers at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign and at the University of Utah at Salt Lake City has developed a process to enable curcumin to help kill cancer cells.

Curcumin is the active ingredient of turmeric, a medicinal herb with powerful antiinflammatory and antioxidant properties Curcumin is also known to exhibit anticancer properties, but its poor solubility in water had impeded curcumin’s clinical application in cancer. A drug needs to be soluble in water in order to flow through the bloodstream.

Despite decades of research, the development

C

of effectively delivering water-insoluble curcumin to cancer cells had remained a challenge.

A team lead by Dipanjan Pan, associate professor of bioengineering at UIUC, has now found a way out.

Pan’s laboratory collaborated with Peter Stang at the University of Utah to come up with a solution to render curcumin soluble, and deliver it to infected tumors to kill the cancer cells.

The team has reported its work in the “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.”

Pan’s team included post-doctoral researcher Santosh Misra at UIUC; and Sougata Datta, Manik Lal Saha, Nabajit Lahiri, Janis Louie, and Peter J. Stang from the University of Utah.

Senior Citizen Parivar of Elgin organized its annual picnic at Wayne Forest Preserve last week.

The weatherman had forecast heavy rains but some 200 seniors actively participated in the full-day fun-filled activity.

Traditional dishes were cooked at the scenic spot.

In order to make the day more interesting, Parivar arranged different games for elderly members, and winners were awarded with gift cards as prizes. Dhiraj Suvagia (chairman), Bharat Thakkar (president), Jay Desai (secretary) and all members of committee worked with sincerity to make the event successful.
