wo intriguing exercises in U-turns are on at the moment. While Congress President Rahul Gandhi is trying to rid the Congress of its pro-Muslim image, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief, Mohan Bhagwat, is claiming that a Hindu “rashtra” (nation) will include Muslims as well.

Although Bhagwat did not specifically say so, it was obvious that the Muslims would not be treated as second-class citizens in a nation of Hindus as was decreed

The hundreds of civic workers, rickshaw pullers, street vendors and road sweepers cannot afford to buy water several times a day from vending kiosks. To their rescue come the “matkas”, or traditional earthen pitchers, installed at different parts of the city which seem to get magically filled up with water every single day.

Brett Kavanaugh denies sexual misconduct US President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee denies accusations of sexual misconduct that threatens to derail his confirmation IANS, WASHINGTON

U

S President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh repeatedly denied accusations of sexual misconduct that have threatened to derail his confirmation in an interview with Fox News.

“What I know is the truth, and the truth is I’ve never sexually assaulted anyone,” Kavanaugh said in the interview this week.

Kavanaugh’s wife, Ashley, said the allegations against her husband were “hard to believe”.

“I know Brett. I’ve known him for 17 years... He’s decent, he’s kind, he’s good. I know his heart. This is not consistent with Brett,” she said.

California professor Christine Blasey Ford has accused Kavanaugh of covering her mouth and trying to remove her clothing at a party in the early 1980s, when both were in high school. Kavanaugh and Ford were set to testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on September 27.

In the interview, Kavanaugh

emphatically denied Ford’s claim against him, saying that he was “never at any such party”.

Kavanaugh added that he was

“not questioning and have not questioned that perhaps Ford at some point in her life was sexually assaulted by someone at some place, but

what I know is I’ve never sexually assaulted anyone”.

He also denied a New Yorker report published on Sunday night in which classmate Deborah Ramirez said he exposed himself to her while they were students at Yale.

“I never did any such thing,” Kavanaugh told Fox News.

“The other people alleged to be there don’t recall any such thing. If such a thing had happened, it would have been the talk of campus.”

Top Republicans, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, have slammed what they described as a “smear campaign” orchestrated in part by Democrats.

Trump has also repeatedly defended his nominee against sexual misconduct accusations, which he has called “totally political” and “one of the single most unfair, unjust things to happen to a candidate for anything”.

Kavanaugh said in the interview that Trump had called him on Monday afternoon to say “he’s standing by me” and said he was confident that will remain the case.

US clears spending package to avoid govt shutdown WASHINGTON: The US House of Representative passed a government spending package worth $854 billion in an effort to avoid a government shutdown next month.

The package was passed on Wednesday by a margin of 361 to 61, reports CNBC News.

Although President Donald Trump raised the possibility of vetoing the legislation in recent weeks, he said “we’re going to keep the government open”, hours before Wednesday’s vote.

The package funds the Defense Department and a few other pieces of the government, while allotting money for the remainder of the government in a short-term package. The Senate had already passed the spending legislation and funding lapses. Trump slammed the spending package because it did not include money for his proposed border wall.

Republican congressional leaders have opposed a shutdown because it could hurt party candidates only six weeks before midterm elections.

Last week, Trump called the bill “ridiculous” and urged Republicans to “get tough”, CNBC News said.

Earlier this month, Trump said he would consider shutting down the government “because I think it’s a great political issue”.

Pompeo to travel to Pyongyang for 2nd Trump-Kim summit China attempting to ‘meddle’ in US elections, says Trump

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. (File photo: IANS) IANS, UNITED NATIONS

U

S Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will travel to Pyongyang in October to prepare a second summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, the Department of State said in a communique this week.

Pompeo met with his North Korean counterpart, Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho, at the United National General Assembly this

week to discuss the upcoming summit, Efe reported.

At that meeting, Pompeo “accepted Chairman Kim’s invitation to travel to Pyongyang next month,” said the State Department.

During his visit to North Korea, Pompeo will “make further progress on the implementation of the commitments from the USNorth KoreaSingapore summit, including the final, fully verified denuclearization of North Korea,”

UNITED NATIONS: President Donald Trump accused China of attempting to meddle in the Nov. 6 congressional elections in the United States in retaliation for the tariffs his administration has imposed on Chinese goods.

“Regrettably, we found that China has been attempting to interfere in our upcoming 2018 election, coming up in November, against my administration,” the US president told a United Nations’ Security Council meeting centering on the issue of nuclear non-proliferation, Efe reported.

“They do not want me, or us, to win because I am the first president

He will also “prepare for a second summit between President Trump and Chairman Kim,” the

ever to challenge China on trade and we are winning on trade, we are winning at every level. We don’t want them to meddle or interfere in our upcoming election,” Trump said.

China’s foreign minister, who was present at the Security Council meeting, denounced Trump’s accusation as being “unwarranted.”

“We do not and will not interfere in any country’s domestic affairs,” Wang Yi said. National Intelligence Director Dan Coats had earlier said that the US government had found signs of possible attempts by Russia and China to interfere in the November midterm elections.

statement said.

“Very positive meeting with #DPRK Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho @UNGA to discuss upcoming summit & next steps toward denuclearization of #NorthKorea,” said Pompeo on Twitter on Wednesday.

Trump said that his second meeting with Kim will occur “quite soon” and explained that Pompeo would be making arrangements for that summit.

At their historic June summit in Singapore, Trump and Kim signed a declaration opening the door to denuclearizing North Korea in exchange for US guarantees for the survival of the Pyongyang regime headed by Kim, although the two leaders did not establish a timetable for those objectives.

In recent weeks, the bilateral dialogue between Washington and Pyongyang had stagnated due to differences on how to move the process forward.

Last week, the US government said that North Korea’s denuclearization process must be finalized by January 2021, at the latest, when Trump’s term ends.

North Korea, meanwhile, has demanded progress on signing a peace treaty putting an end to the technical state of war existing on the Korean Peninsula in exchange for its taking concrete steps to dismantle its nuclear arsenal, as demanded by the White House.

SC whittles down Aadhaar scheme While upholding the legality of Aadhaar for use in government-funded social benefit schemes, the court said there would not be sharing of data with corporate entities IANS, NEW DELHI

Opposition, BJP welcome SC verdict on Aadhaar

I

n a landmark judgement, the Supreme Court on Wednesday by a 4:1 majority judgement upheld the legality of Aadhaar for use only in government-funded social benefit schemes and PAN and Income Tax Return (ITR) while junking its requirement for mobile phone connections, bank accounts, school admissions and competitive examinations.

A five-judge bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra held that Aadhaar would be voluntary and not mandatory.

The majority judgment, which struck and read down or clarified various provisions of the Aadhaar Act, was read out by Justice A.K. Sikri speaking for Chief Justice Misra and Justice A.M. Khanwilkar and himself. Justice Ashok Bhushan delivered a separate but concurring judgment.

Rejecting the apprehensions of the petitioners, the majority judgment held that the architecture of Aadhaar as well as the provisions of the Aadhaar Act do not tend to create a surveillance state. “This is ensued by the manner in which the Aadhaar project operates.”

In his dissenting judgement, Justice D.Y. Chandrachud held that the entire Aadhaar programme since 2009 suffered from constitutional infirmities and violated fundamental rights. The enactment of Aadhaar Act does not save the Aadhaar project.

The Aadhaar Act, the rules and regulations framed under it and the framework prior to the enactment

3 militants, soldier killed in Kashmir SRINAGAR: Three militants, a soldier and a civilian were killed on Thursday in three separate incidents in the Kashmir Valley, officials said.

A local commander of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) outfit, Asif Malik alias Abu Ukasha, and a soldier were killed in a gunfight in Gasigund village in Dooru area of Anantnag district.

In another gunfight in Panzan village of Badgam district, security forces killed two militants but their identity was being ascertained.

The fighting erupted after the militants entered a mosque.

A civilian, Muhammad Saleem Malik, was killed in gunfire in Noorbagh locality of Qamarwari area in Srinagar when the security forces were laying a cordon.

NEW DELHI: The opposition as well as the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday welcomed the Supreme Court judgement that upheld the legality of Aadhaar but restricted its use for disbursement of welfare schemes and junked its requirement for cell phones, bank accounts and school admission.

Soon after the verdict came, Congress President Rahul Gandhi tweeted: “For Congress, Aadhaar

was an instrument of empowerment.

For the BJP, Aadhaar is a tool of oppression and surveillance. Thank you Supreme Court for supporting the Congress vision and protecting India.”

Separately, the Congress party in a statement said the decision to strike down the Narendra Modi government’s “surveillance tool” will put an end to the government’s “abuse of power”.

of the Act were unconstitutional. “...if no fresh legislation has been enacted by the union government in conformity with the principles which have been enunciated in this judgment, the data (collected for Aadhaar) shall be destroyed.

Justice Chandrachud said that passing the Aadhaar law as money bill was unconstitutional and a “fraud on the Constitution” because it was not a money bill.

Speaking for the majority, Justice Sikri said linking of Aadhaar for opening and with existing bank accounts, getting a mobile number, appearing for CBSE, NEET, JEE, UGC examinations and admission in schools was not mandatory.

The court in its 1,448 page judgement said the government’s notification that rendered bank accounts inoperable for not being linked with Aadhaar amounted to

Bringing Aadhaar as money bill no fraud on Constitution: Jaitley NEW DELHI: Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Wednesday said that “bringing a money bill as a money bill” cannot be a fraud on the Constitution, and stressed that Aadhaar bill was indeed a finance bill.

“A money bill can only be brought as a money bill. The finance bill cannot be brought as anything other than a money bill,” Jaitley said in response to a question by IANS

In a minority judgment on Wednesday, Justice D.Y. Chandrachud — who was on the five-judge constitution bench of the Supreme Court that examined the legality of Aadhaar — held that passing the Aadhaar law as money bill was a

“fraud on the Constitution” because it was not a money bill.

“When a government brings a bill as a money bill it runs another risk. If a normal legislation falls, the government does not resign. But if a money bill falls, the government resigns.

Therefore, the government takes a risk (in bringing a legislation as a money bill),” Jaitley said.

admission of children to school will not be compulsory as it was “neither a service nor subsidy”.

However, the majority of the bench held that Aadhaar was valid for linking with Income Tax returns.

Striking down Section 57 of the

Aadhaar Act that allows private entities to demand Aadhaar to access their services, the court said that there would not be sharing of data with individuals and the corporate entities.

It said Aadhaar was meant to help benefits reach marginalized sections.

Adultery law archaic, arbitrary: Supreme Court IANS, NEW DELHI

I

n another landmark judgement, the Supreme Court on Thursday decriminalized adultery after striking down a British era law, Section 497 of the Indian Penal Code, terming it as unconstitutional, archaic and manifestly arbitrary, with one judge saying women can’t be treated as “chattel”.

“Mere adultery can’t be a criminal offense. Adultery may not be the cause of an unhappy marriage, but other way around. It will tantamount to punishing people who live in an unhappy marriage.

“It is a matter of privacy. Husband is not the master of wife.

Women should be treated with equality along with men,” Chief Justice Dipak Misra said.

Earlier in September, the apex court had decriminalized same sex

offense under Section 377 of the IPC, which was another British era law.

Most countries have abolished adultery as a crime. “It shouldn’t be

a criminal offense, other people are also involved in it,” Misra said, reading out the judgement, on behalf of himself and Justice A.M. Khanwilkar. Any discrimination

shall invite the wrath of the Constitution, the Chief Justice said, adding that a woman cannot be asked to think about the way society desires her to do.

Justice Rohinton F. Nariman, reading out his judgement, said: “Women can’t be treated as chattel (personal possession).”

Justice D.Y. Chandrachud in a concurring but separate judgment said society has two sets of morality in sexual behavior — one for women and another for men.

Society treating women as embodiment of virtue leads to crime like honor killing, he said, adding that the archaic law was against dignity, liberty and sexual autonomy guaranteed under the Constitution.

Justice Chandrachud said a woman had sexual autonomy within marriage.

RSS, Cong aim makeover While Rahul Gandhi tries to remove pro-Muslim image, Mohan Bhagwat appeases Muslims

AMULYA GANGULI, NEW DELHI

T

wo intriguing exercises in U-turns are on at the moment. While Congress President Rahul Gandhi is trying to rid the Congress of its pro-Muslim image, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief, Mohan Bhagwat, is claiming that a Hindu “rashtra” (nation) will include Muslims as well.

Although Bhagwat did not specifically say so, it was obvious that the Muslims would not be treated as second-class citizens in a nation of Hindus as was decreed

by M.S. Golwalkar, the second sarsanghchalak (head) of the RSS. Are these changes for real or fake? If they are real, then both the Congress and the RSS can be said to be turning over a new leaf.

The formidable impact of such changes, especially the one in the RSS, on the social and political scene is obvious. In a way, it will be on the scale of Mikhail Gorbachev’s perestroika (restructuring) and glasnost (openness) which brought the communist Soviet Union into the capitalist world.

Will the RSS similarly break out of its earlier Hindu-centric mould for which it was accused by several judicial commissions of instigating communal riots and become secu-

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat and Congress President Rahul Gandhi. (Photos: IANS)

lar? However, the problem in the case of the RSS is that it is not alone. It is a part of a large brotherhood which includes the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), the Bajrang Dal, the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and others.

Although the RSS is their mentor, it is not known whether it will be able to bring their thinking in line with its new, accommodative mode.

The task is bound to be difficult considering that the saffron broth-

erhood has nurtured an antiminority outlook for decades, regarding Muslims as “internal enemies No. 1” and Christians as “internal enemies No. 2”, according to Golwalkar.

Although the RSS and the BJP have now distanced themselves from this section of Golwalkar’s catechism, the Ramjanmabhoom agitation of the 1990s showed how the Hindutva brigade continues to hold the two communities as responsible for all of India’s woes, starting from the destruction of

temples in medieval times to the country’s partition in the modern period to the conversion of Hindus to “alien” religions.

Another fear of the saffronities is that the Muslims would outnumber the Hindus by breeding exponentially with their four wives — hum panch, hamare pachis, as Narendra Modi once said — while the Christian missionaries will continue to “harvest” gullible Hindu souls.

It is open to question, therefore, as to what extent Bhagwat’s words

of wisdom will lead to a dramatic rethinking in the Hindutva ranks. It is this scepticism which apparently made the opposition parties at the national level stay away from the three-day conclave which Bhagwat addressed at New Delhi’s prestigious Vigyan Bhavan.

However, the proof of the pudding will be in the eating. If there are no more lynchings of suspected beef-eaters, no more campaigns in favour of “ghar wapsi” or the reconversion of Muslims, and no more instances of love jehad resulting in the harassment of inter-faith couples, then it will be presumed that the RSS chief’s counsel of restraint is having a sobering effect on the saffron storm-troopers.

As important as the stoppage of lynchings will be the end of the cold-blooded killings of rationalists or scientists or journalists, which have evidently been carried out by those indoctrinated by the philosophy of hate directed against Left-Liberal members of the intelligentsia.

And, what about the venomous outpourings of the countless saffron trolls who let out whoops of joy over the killing of an intrepid scribe? Will they pipe down and become models of restrained behavior?

Matka Man: From London to Delhi on a thirst-quenching mission Natarajan overcame cancer and gave up his business in Britain, and found happiness in this daily routine NIVEDITA SINGH, NEW DELHI

“Once, I casually asked one of the guards who came to take water from the cooler why he was coming here and not taking water from where he worked. He said they did not provide him water,”

Iran exporting terror, says Trump Chairing the UN Security Council session, the US President accused Iran of exporting ‘violence, terror and turmoil’ to the Middle East and elsewhere IANS, UNITED NATIONS

Sushma Swaraj, Iran Foreign Minister discuss US sanctions

P

resident Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened to impose sanctions that are “stronger than ever” on Iran.

Trump — chairing the UN Security Council session — once again called the 2015 nuclear pact with Iran and other world powers a “horrible, one-sided deal (that) allowed Iran to continue its path toward a (nuclear) bomb and gave the regime a cash lifeline when they needed it the most.”

The session was focused on the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, but Trump took advantage of the forum to denounce Iran and accuse it of exporting “violence, terror and turmoil” to the Middle East and elsewhere.

He said that such a regime must never be allowed to possess nuclear weapons.

In August, the Trump administration re-imposed a number of economic sanctions on Iran and will

‘Putin honored spy poisoning suspect’ LONDON: A Russian man accused of poisoning former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter in the UK, is a military officer who received an Vladimir Putin “honor” from President Vladimir Putin, an investigative website has revealed.

Following the attempted poisoning in March, UK investigators identified one of the two suspects as Ruslan Boshirov, the BBC reported on Thursday.

Putin had claimed Boshirov was a civilian. But according to the British website Bellingcat, Boshirov is actually an intelligence officer by the name of Colonel Anatoliy Chepiga.

He has served in Chechnya and Ukraine was made a “Hero of the Russian Federation” in 2014.

The 39-year-old trained at one of Russia’s elite academies and served with a special forces unit under the command of the GRU Russia’s military intelligence service, the website said in a report.

He earned more than 20 military awards for his service.

He is believed to have transferred to Moscow around 2009, where he was given a false identity as Ruslan Boshirov and has been working undercover for the past nine years, the report added.

Choksi, who is wanted in India over his alleged involvement in a scheme that defrauded Punjab National Bank of $2 billion, has reportedly taken the citizenship of the Caribbean island nation.

Assembly session here on Wednesday. At the Security Counci, Trump said that the sanctions against Iran will come into full force in November and warned “any individual who fail to comply with these sanctions will face full consequences”.

Kumar said that India was engaged with all the stakeholders dealing with the sanctions and, therefore, it discussed it with Iran also.

Zarif told Sushma Swaraj about Iran’s interaction with the European Union (EU) and other countries over the sanctions, according to Kumar.

Security Council session, saying that although the 2015 nuclear pact is not perfect, it constitutes a “decisive step,” and he criticized the US sanctions.

Averted war with N.Korea: Trump NEW YORK: US President Donald Trump has again claimed that his predecessor Barack Obama was close to starting a war with North Korea, saying that if he “wasn’t elected, there would have been a war”.

“President Obama thought you had to go to war. You know how close he was to pressing the trigger,” Trump said at a solo press conference here on Wednesday, adding that “not thousands... (But) millions of people would have been killed” in what “could have been a world war”, CNN Reported.

British cabinet presses ahead with PM’s Brexit blueprint IANS, LONDON

B

ritish Prime Minister Theresa May is to press ahead with her Chequers plan for a softBrexit, her advisors said after a meeting of her top ministers at Downing Street.

Ahead of the meeting on Monday, there had been media speculation of differing opinions among some of her top team, with claims that some ministers wanted her to abandon the plan agreed in July at a meeting at her country retreat Chequers, Xinhua reported.

An official spokesperson for May said later her cabinet remained fully behind May’s Brex-

it policy, even though it has faced strong criticism from EU member leaders as well as European Coun-

cil President Donald Tusk.

Across London, opponents of May’s Chequers blueprint, includ-

ing former Brexit secretary David Davis and the Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg were discussing a Brexit report compiled by the think tank, the Institute for Economic Affairs (IEA).

Rees-Mogg described the IEA report as the most exciting contribution to the Brexit debate in months. It put forward a free trade deal, based on one Canada has brokered with the EU, as an alternative to May’s plan. It was also hailed by former Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson.

The next big test for May will come this weekend when the party starts its annual conference in Birmingham.

India ‘richer’ by 601 billionaires, Mukesh Ambani on top In 2014, there were 230 billionaires or multi-billionaires in India, which shot up to 831 in the 2018 IANS, MUMBAI

I

ndia added a whopping 601 new billionaires since 2014, with Reliance Industries Ltd Chairman Mukesh Ambani topping the ‘Barclays Hurun India Rich List-2018’ for the seventh consecutive year with an estimated wealth of Rs 371,000 crore.

As per the report, in 2014, there were 230 billionaires or multi-billionaires, which shot up to 831 in the 2018 in the BHI Rich List.

Earlier, in 2012, the figure was a modest 59 billionaires, which climbed to 141 in 2013. But after notching 230 billionaires in 2014, the list has grown phenomenally with 296 (2015), 339 (2016), 617 (2017) and now 831 billionaires in 2018.

Similarly, the number of USD billionaires in India in the past seven years at the prevailing exchange rates has shot up from 59 (2012) to 141 (2018) as the USD’s value grew from INR 55.60 to INR 68.40 during the period.

Among women, there was only

Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) Chairman and MD Mukesh Ambani. (File Photo: IANS)

one self-made billionaire in 2013, which increased to 11 in 2018.

Women multi-billionaires shot up from just five in 2013 to 136 this year. The cumulative wealth of these 831 individuals featured in the latest list stands at USD 719 billion, or

one-quarter of the Indian GDP of USD 2,848 billion as per the IMF’s April 2018 estimates.

After Ambani, next comes S.P. Hinduja and family of Hinduja Group with estimated wealth of Rs 159,000 crore, Arcelor-Mittal’s

L.N. Mittal and family at Rs 114,500 crore in the top bracket.

Following them are: Wipro’s Azim Premji at Rs 96,100 crore, Sun Pharmaceuticals Ltd’s Dilip Shanghvi at Rs 89,700 crore, Kotak Mahindra Bank’s Uday Kotak at Rs 78,600 crore, Serum Institute of India’s Cyrus Poonawalla at Rs 73,000 crore, Adani Group’s Gautam Adani and family at Rs 71,200 crore, Shapoorji Pallonji Mistry’s Cyrus P. Mistry at Rs 69,400 crore, Five of the Top 10 belong to Maharashtra, one each from Gujarat and Karnataka, two are London-based and one is in Monaco, as per the rich list.

As expected, the country’s commercial capital Mumbai tops the billionaires’ list with 233 names, followed by New Delhi at 163 and IT capital Bengaluru at 70, said Barclays Private Clients CEO S.N. Bansal. The annual list is a compilation of the super-richest Indians having a net worth of Rs 1,000 crore or more. This number has increased by a staggering one-third - from 617

in 2017 to 831 in 2018, said Hurun Report India’s Managing Director Rahman Junaid.

While 306 new entrants made it to the list this year, 75 of those featured in 2017 failed to find a place in the super exclusive club this year.

“The Indian edition of the list is the fastest growing rich list in the world, highlighting the optimism of a young, vibrant and ambitious country,” Junaid pointed out.

As far as top wealthy business clans are concerned, more than 50 percent of the businesses listed in the 2018 rich list belong to just 10 Indian families - Ambani, Godrej, Hinduja, Mistry, Shanghvi, Nadar, Adani, Damani, Lohia and Burman.

Four of these family-run businesses are in the first-generation and second generation, one is in third generation and one in fifth generation of operations.

“Wealth creation in India is growing at an unprecedented pace, and the time it takes to accumulate wealth is shorter than before,” said Bansal at the report launch.

Nun rape: Court order on Meeting with Modi fruitful: Kerala CM Bishop’s bail plea on Oct 3 IANS, NEW DELHI

KOCHI: The Kerala High Court will deliver on October 3 its order on the bail plea of Bishop Franco Mulakkal, arrested on charges of raping a nun.

Justice V. Raja Vijayaraghavan heard on Thursday the arguments in the case against Mulakkal for allegedly raping the senior nun repeatedly between 2014 and 2016.

He was arrested on September 21 after three days of questioning and on September 24, he was sent to two weeks of judicial custody by Judge M. Lekshmi of Pala Judicial Magisterial Court.

Pressing for bail, Mulakkal’s coun-

sel presented a visual evidence of the bishop taking part in a private function at the victim’s home.

The significance of the evidence is the visit which came just a day after the victim was allegedly abused for the first time.

The prosecution however pleaded that granting him bail would affect the ongoing investigation as more statements have to be recorded.

Mulakkal, who heads the Roman Catholic Diocese in Jalandhar, Punjab, is the first bishop in the country to be sent to jail on charges of rape.

erala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan this week expressed happiness after meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying he had “very fruitful” discussions on how to rebuild the flood-battered state.

Vijayan called on Modi seeking the full support of the Center in rebuilding the state in the aftermath of the worst ever floods in a century that ravaged the state.

“Eighty per cent of Kerala’s population has been directly or indirectly affected by the tragedy. The state alone cannot handle the crisis. Hence the complete support of the Centre is required and this has been brought to the attention of the Prime Minister,” he said.

“The meeting was very fruitful and we have a lot of expectations,” he told the media.

Among the demands he has raised with Modi is a 10 per cent increase in all central schemes, a sum of Rs 4,796 crore from the National Disaster Fund and Rs 5,000 crore of special grant.

The May-August disaster claimed 483 lives and at the height of the deluge there were 14.50 lakh people in over 3,000 relief camps.

“We have sought the help of the

Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan. (File photo: IANS)

Centre to get assistance from the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank. The PM has expressed all support in the demands that we raised.”

He said there were issues in

accepting help from foreign countries. “But there is no bar in accepting help from the diaspora.”

Vijayan returned from the US on Sunday after being treated for an undisclosed ailment.

India lifting millions out of poverty: Trump at UN

Addressing the UN General Assembly, the US President said India was part of a ‘beautiful constellation’ of countries working for a common future ARUL LOUIS, UNITED NATIONS

U

S President Donald Trump this week held up India as an example to the world of a country that has successfully lifted millions out of poverty while upholding freedoms.

Addressing the General Assembly this week, he said India was part of a “beautiful constellation” of countries working for a common future.

“There is India, a free society (of) over a billion people, successfully lifting countless millions out of poverty and into middle class.”

“Many countries are pursuing their own unique visions, building their own hopeful futures and chasing their own dreams of destiny, of legacy and of a home,” he said.

“The world is richer, humanity is better because of this beautiful constellation of nations.”

In a break with tradition, Trump spoke third at the high-level General Assembly session instead of the second as he arrived late.

The first head of state to speak is always from Brazil, followed by the US President.

However, President Lenin Moreno Garces of Ecuador, a critic of the US, took the second spot with a wide-ranging critique of Washing-

Padma Lakshmi's account won praise on social media.

ton. Trump, who took the third spot, emphasized his America First policy with a declaration that he rejected the “ideology of globalism” for a belief in patriotism and he reiterated his hardline against countries like China, Iran and Venezuela.

He criticized OPEC for “ripping off the rest of the world” and demanded that the OPEC nations cut their “horrible prices” because “we are not going to put up with it.”

In contrast to his laudatory statement about India, he had harsh words for China, accusing it of currency manipulation and dumping and said that he will not allow it to exploit American workers or companies.

He defended his imposition of tariffs on $250 billion worth Chinese goods saying, “The United States lost over 3 million manufacturing jobs, nearly a quarter of all

steel jobs, and 60,000 factories after China joined the WTO (World Trade Organisation) and we have racked up in $13 trillion in trade deficits over the last two decades.”

He said, “Trade must be fair and reciprocal. The United States will not be taken advantage of any longer.”

The US was renegotiating “bad and broken trade deals” with several countries and groups to get fairness for America, he asserted.

In what sounded like a reversal of Washington’s policy of promoting democracy and exporting its values, he declared, “The United States will not tell you how to live, or work, or worship. We only ask that you honor our sovereignty in return.”

He started his speech with the domestic audience and the midterm election in mind and read out his economic scorecard, which was greeted by murmurs in the audience, which he laughed off.

He talked of the $700 million added allocation for the military this year and said the US military will be the most powerful.

He said he stood for America and the American people and was, thereby, also standing up for the world.

I was raped at 16, kept mum: Padma Lakshmi IANS, NEW YORK

U

S television host Padma Lakshmi has said she was raped at the age of 16, but kept silent as she feared fingers would point at her for bringing it upon herself.

The 48-year-old Top Chef host, wrote a piece for the New York Times published this week, where she made the revelation.

The article was prompted by allegations surrounding US President Donald Trump’s choice for the Supreme Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh, who has been accused of sexual misconduct by two women, the BBC reported.

However, Trump has defended Kavanaugh and cast doubt on the two women. He tweeted: “I have no doubt that, if the attack... was as bad as she says, charges would

have been immediately filed with local Law Enforcement Authorities by either her or her loving parents.

He also asked Christine Blasey Ford to make public her compliant “so that we can learn the date, time, and place”.

Lakshmi wrote: “President

The 48-year-old Top Chef host, wrote a piece for the New York Times published this week, where she made the revelation Trump tweeted that if what Ford said was true, she would have filed a police report years ago.

IN BRIEF Indian man charged for groping woman DUBAI: A Dubai court has charged an Indian man with groping a woman while she was walking late at night.

Prosecutors this week accused the 30-year-old man, a driver, of taking the Filipina woman by surprise, inappropriately touching her and then fleeing the scene, reports the Khaleej Times.

The man denied the charge, claiming that he touched her by mistake. The complainant, a 25year-old waitress, told the prosecution that she did not know the suspect prior to the incident.

Indian-origin pleads guilty to fraud in US WASHINGTON: An Indian-origin doctor has pleaded guilty to a healthcare fraud in the US, the Justice Department said.

Jayam Krishna Iyer, 66, from Clearwater, Florida, pleaded guilty to one count of the healthcare fraud earlier this week and faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in federal prison, or 20 years, if her offense involves serious bodily injury, the Department said in a press release.

As part of the plea last week, Iyer agreed to surrender both her Drug Enforcement Administration registration number that she used to prescribe controlled substances, her Florida medical licence, and to a permanent exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programmes.

years without involving the police.

For years, I did the same thing.”

Lakshmi said she was raped on New Year’s Eve by her boyfriend in the 1980s. She had met him, who was then 23, while working in Los Angeles. After attending a couple of New Year’s Eve parties, she said they went to his apartment where she fell asleep, and woke up with him on top of her.

“I asked, ‘What are you doing?’...’Please don’t do this,’ I screamed. I didn’t report it. Not to my mother, not to my friends and certainly not to the police,” she wrote. She said she began to feel the attack was her fault. She explained: “We had no language in the 1980s for date rape. I imagined that adults would say: ‘What the hell were you doing in his apartment?’”

She said she understood why women might not disclose sexual assaults. Thirty-two years on, she says: “I have nothing to gain by talking about this.”

But she added, alluding to Trump’s implication that allegations not made immediately are less true or less severe: “We all have a lot to lose if we put a time limit on telling the truth about sexual assault.”

INDIA FACES TOP SEED US

Fifth-seeded Indian open chess team, led by former World Champion Vishwanathan Anand, crosses swords with defending champions US at the World Chess Olympiad VENKATACHARI JAGANNATHAN, CHENNA

Chess Olympiad: Indian men defeat Canada

I

t was going to be a big and crucial match on September 27 for the fifth-seeded Indian open chess team, led by former World Champion Vishwanathan Anand, as it crosses swords with top seed and defending champions US at the 43rd World Chess Olympiad at Batumi in Georgia, a senior chess player and coach said.

“The pairing was not a surprise as we have to play all the strong teams and everyone knows it,” Indian team Captain and coach R.B. Ramesh told IANS. “The Indian team will be facing about six or seven strong teams during its Olympiad medal hunt.

It is better to face the stronger teams early when the players are fresh and not tired,” chess coach R.R. Vasudevan told IANS. According to him, though the

World Champion Vishwanathan Anand (Photo: IANS)

US team is strong, it is not unbeatable. “A win in the lower board and a draw in the other three boards is sufficient,” he added.

According to Vasudevan, on the top board Anand is in good form and in the last two games he did not seem to be under any sort of trouble against two strong players and won against them with ease.

He said Anand may have a slight

psychological edge over World No.2 Fabiano Caruana, the challenger for the world title.

“World Champion Magnus Carlsen will be watching keenly the games played by Caruana. So the American player will be playing carefully not to give any indication about his preparations for the world title clash,” Vasudevan added.

CHENNAI: Led by former World Champion Viswanathan Anand, the fifth seeded Indian team in the open section in the Chess Olympiad in Georgia coasted to a comfortable 3.5-0.5 victory against lowly rated Canada.

On the top board, Anand playing black continued his winning streak with a 33-move victory over the 26year-old Canadian Eric Hansen.

Playing with white pieces, Indian P.Harikrishna overcame the challenge posed by Razvan Preotu in 33 moves.

The nail biting game on the third board between Vidit Santhosh Gujrathi with black pieces and Evgeny Bareev ended after a marathon

72 moves draw. Gujrathi lost a horse on the 25th move. But he was three pawns up.

However for a long time, Bareev had an advantage but towards the end it got equalized and Gujrathi salvaged half-a-point.

On the fourth board, K.Sasikiran made short work of his opponent Aman Hambleton.

On the other hand, the Indian women drew their match against the 23rd seeded Serbia 2-2.

While India’s two world class players on the top two boards, Koneru Humpy and Harika Dronavalli, defeated their rivals, Eesha Karavade and Padmini Rout on the third and fourth boards lost their games.

ndian cricket captain Virat Kohli and world champion weightlifter Saikhom Mirabai Chanu were conferred with the country’s highest sporting honor — Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna award — by President Ram Nath Kovind at the annual National Sports Awards ceremony.

This year’s award ceremony was postponed to September 25 from the usual August 29 National Sports Day event due to the clash of dates with the Asian Games in Indonesia.

The Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna award is given for a ‘spectacular and most outstanding perfor-

mance in the field of sports by a sportsperson over a period of four years’. Both Kohli and Chanu received a medal, a citation and a cash prize of Rs 7 lakh.

Besides the Khel Ratna, star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra, sprinter Hima Das, table tennis star Manika Batra were among the 20 recipients of the prestigious Arjuna award.

The other Arjuna awardees were long distance runner Jinson Johnson, shuttler N.Sikki Reddy, boxer Satish Kumar, woman cricketer Smriti Mandhana, golfer Shubhankar Sharma, hockey stars Manpreet Singh and Savita Punia, Col. Ravi Rathore (Polo), shooters Rahi Sarnobat.

ahendra Singh Dhoni’s comeback as skipper, albiet for a game ended in a thrilling tie against a resurgent Afghanistan in their final Super Four match of the Asia Cup at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Chasing a competitive 253, the defending champions got off to a flier from the new opening pair of Lokesh Rahul (60 off 66 balls; 4X5, 6X1) and Ambati Rayudu (57 off 49; 4X4, 6X4) before a mini collapse, coupled with a few run-outs and umpiring errors, eventually resulted in a tie.

Needing 7 off the final over, Ravindra Jadeja (25 off 34; 4X1) struck a boundary on the second ball off leg-spinner Rashid Khan before taking two singles with last man Khaleel Ahmed in company.

With 1 needed off the final two balls, Jadeja pulled the fifth delivery — a shorter one towards midwicket only to find Najibullah running in from deep to grab it with both hands and help Afghanistan bow out of the tournament with their head held high.

Earlier, replacing the regular pair of Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan, Rahul and Rayudu got India to a 110-run opening stand before Mohammed Nabi managed to draw first blood with the wicket of Rayudu.

India vs Bangladesh in Asia Cup final DUBAI: Defending champions India are the favorites to lift the Asia Cup trophy for the record seventh time when they face a confident Bangladesh in the final at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on September 28.

For India, the last-ball draw against Afghanistan in their final Super Four encounter on September 25 will serve as an eye opener despite all the top guns, including skipper Rohit Sharma and his in-form opening partner Shikhar Dhawan were rested for the inconsequential tie.

removing Rahul before Dinesh Karthik’s (44 off 66; 4X4) sedate knock stabilized things for the Men-in-Blue.

Karthik, however failed to get adequate support from the other end as Dhoni (8), Manish Pandey (8) and Kedar Jadhav (19) fell in quick succession before an umpiring blunder sent the Tamil Nadu stumper back in the hut.

Towards the end, Jadeja played a lone hand even as the bowlers — Deepak Chahar (12), Kuldeep Yadav (9) and Siddharth Kaul (0) — could hardly lend any support to the southpaw.

For the Afghans, pacer Aftab Alam and spin duo of Nabi and Rashid picked two wickets each while Javed Ahmadi picked one.

Tired of Dizziness or Imbalance?

You are Not Alone! We Can Help You! Physical Therapy Solutions (PTS) is the region’s #1 specialist for vestibular and balance disorders and the only private practice in Chicagoland’s northwest suburbs utilizing NeuroCom’s NASA-based Smart Equi Test System.

How does testing on the SMART Equi System evaluate my balance?

Balance is a very complex interaction between the sensory system and brain. The Equi Test System helps us determine if there is a problem in the interaction between your sensory system – eyes, ears, sensation in your feet and joints – and the brain, which coordinates your movements. This equipment also allows us to compare your performance to that of other people your age who don’t have balance or vestibular issues.

What does therapy consist of once my balance issues are determined?

Our specialists set up a rehabilitation protocol for your functional limitation and quantify performance over time.

This means better outcomes that carry over to daily living. The therapy consists of specific balance exercises, including head movements, changing surfaces,

What is the SMART Equi Test System and how can it help me?

The system was initially developed for NASA to evaluate how space flight affects balance control and inner ear function in astronauts. This equipment allows our rehab professionals to perform six tests that measure body movement and sway during different purposeful movements or when standing still.

How many treatments will q it take for me to see an improvement with my balance?

Treatment requirements are determined with an evaluation q of your condition. Most of 4 our patients have seen a significant improvement in as little as one to two weeks.

T

The incident had happened on the sets of Horn ‘Ok’ Pleassss in 2008, and was brought out in the media as well, but not much happened.

Tanushree, in an interview to IANS, recounted Nana’s “misbehavior” on the set.

“He called the MNS (Maharashtra Navnirman Sena) party to bash up my car. He was behind everything and was supported by Ganesh Acharya, the producer and director.”

IANS tried reaching Nana for a comment. But there was no response.

In 2008, at a press conference to address the “indecent behavior” allegation by Tanushree, Nana had said he was highly surprised at the charges by the actress, who he said #MeToo was “my daughmovement will ter’s age”. never arrive in “I have no India because of clues about the industry’s what made her Actors Nana Patekar and Tanushree Dutta (Photos: IANS) say such things hypocrisy about me.

“I had to deal with that over the years while these people were happily enjoying the limelight,” added the actress, who featured in films like Aashiq Banaya Aapne, Chocolate: Deep Dark Secrets, Speed and Dhol, and has not had a flourishing career in Bollywood. Tanushree claims she was “slut shamed”, and was called a “heroine who came and did a few item songs and bold kissing scenes”. She has been wanting to change the narrative, fighting against the tide.

On the work front, Karan is busy with his various ongoing productions, including Simmba with Ranveer and Sara Ali Khan, and Kalank with Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, Alia and Varun Dhawan.

Karan is also producing Brahmastra, which stars Amitabh Bachchan, Alia and Ranbir.

D

irector Nandita Das’ Manto is a poignant and hard-hitting biopic about the controversial, Indo-Pakistani, Urdu short-story writer Sadat Hassan Manto. It is her tribute to Manto, albeit one she renders with honesty as she presents the celebrated writer with all his failings and greatness.

The film opens in Mumbai where a young and raring-to-go Manto is slowly but surely making his presence felt in the Indian film Industry.

With the Partition breaking out, circumstances compel Manto to move to Pakistan and his life changes.

The film portrays how circumstances can break a straightforward

and talented man who depicted the society through his unapologetic writing.

The Director succeeds in allowing the audience to be privy to the life of this author who lives in

Lahore but has his heart belonging to Mumbai.

The narrative flows smoothly and the origination of some of his short stories like Toba Tek Singh, Khol Do and Thanda Gosht are successfully depicted.

Like every character-driven film, this film too moves at a slow pace, but manages to keep you engrossed.

The drama is in the inner turmoil

within the character. You can feel Manto’s frustrations as he feels incapacitated when in Lahore and this is enhanced by the circumstances and times he lives in.

The film touches your heart especially in the scene where he says, referring to Mumbai: “My father is buried there, my mother is buried there, and my son Arif too is buried there, but I can’t call that place my country.”

The dialogues strike the right chord and are mostly Manto’s own words. They are poetic and hardhitting. An anguished Manto lashes out at the judge when accused of obscenity in his writings.

Facebook executive calls Acton ‘low-class’ WhatsApp co-founder Brian Acton alleged that Zuckerberg was in a rush to make money from the messaging service IANS, SAN FRANCISCO

D

enying WhatsApp cofounder Brian Acton’s claims that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg tried to undermine the instant messaging app’s encryption technology, a top Facebook executive called Acton “low-class”.

The co-founder of WhatsApp Acton started the company with Jan Koum. Facebook acquired the messaging service about four years ago for $22 billion. Acton quit Facebook a year ago, and Koum too left the company in April.

In an interview with Forbes, published this week, Acton alleged that Zuckerberg was in a rush to make money from the messaging service and undermine elements of its encryption technology, CNBC reported.

Slamming Acton for his allegations, Facebook’s David Marcus, who ran Facebook’s messaging products before starting the blockchain group earlier this year, said that the

Instagram founders quit Facebook SAN FRANCISCO: Instagram founders Mike Krieger and Kevin Systrom have resigned from the Facebook-owned photo sharing app that has over one billion users.

According to a report in The New York Times, the co-founders have resigned from their positions and plan to leave the company in coming weeks while the reason behind their move was still unknown.

Later, Systrom wrote in a blog post that they were planning on taking some time off to explore their curiosity and creativity.

“Building new things requires that we step back, understand what inspires us and match that with what the world needs; that’s what we plan to do,” said Systrom.

“Mike and I are grateful for the last eight years at Instagram and six years with the Facebook team.

“We’ve grown from 13 people to over a thousand with offices around the world, all while building products used and loved by a community of over one billion. We’re now ready for our next chapter,” the blog post added.

global roll-out of end-to-end encryption on WhatsApp happened after the acquisition, and with Zuckerberg’s full support.

“Yes, Jan Koum played a key role in convincing Mark of the importance of encryption, but from that point on, it was never questioned,” Marcus wrote in a Facebook post,

expressing his “personal views”.

“Mark’s view was that WhatsApp was a private messaging app, and encryption helped ensure that people’s messages were truly private,” he added.

Speaking on the business model, Marcus said that Zuckerberg protected WhatsApp for a very long

period of time.

Acton, according to Marcus, actively slow-played the execution of a paid messaging service. “... while advocating for business messaging, and being given the opportunity to build and deliver on that promise, Brian actively slow-played the execution, and

‘Tesla building own car carriers for deliveries’

‘Making progress in fight against illicit drug sales ads’ SAN FRANCISCO: Responding to a Washington Post report on how Instagram serves as an open market place for advertising illicit drugs, the Facebook-owned service said it was making progress in making the platform a safe place for everyone.

The Washington Post story, based on the findings of a New York City-based cyber-intelligence start-up, GIPEC, said that Instagram algorithms serve up an array of personalized drug-related content aimed directly at people who show an interest in buying substances illicitly.

When GIPEC Chief Executive Eric Feinberg began hunting for drug posts in June by searching for obvious hashtags, he found hundreds of Instagram posts appearing alongside content from 60 different advertisers.

Once he followed the sellers' accounts, Instagram's algorithms began delivering posts marketing drugs directly into his feed, suggesting other drug sellers for him to follow and introducing him to additional hashtags that he used as clues, the Post reported.

First Annual Women’s Business Expo & Job Fair in Chicago

BY A STAFF WRITER HICAGO,IL— The Women’s Empowerment Campaign of Chicago (WE) organized the very first Women’s Business Expo & Job Fair on Sunday September 16th, 2018 at the Waterford Banquet and Conference Center in Elmhurst IL. The goal was to serve as a platform for women-owned businesses & women professionals. The event was a huge success and included a business expo, job fair, motivational speakers, high-level public officials, personality pageant, fashion show, dance performances, youth forum, and more. WE is a networking & empowerment platform for Indian women in Chicagoland with over 1700 members. Council General of India Neeta Bhushan was the chief guest of the event.

WE was launched by Rita Singh, Shital Daftari, and Dr. Anuja Gupta in November 2017. “We wanted to form a group that showed the power of Indian women in Chicago,” said the founders. The philosophy of the founders and leadership team was to build a powerful community of support for Indian women in the Chicagoland area.

The WE Womens Expo 2018 was the first of its kind to serve as a platform for womenowned businesses. Over 75 women-owned businesses were present, including a wide range of businesses such as clothes, jewelry, home products, professional services & women’s organizations. Even the food vendors at the event were women-owned services.

The kind of vendors represented at the business expo included small to medium sized businesses. For many vendors, this was the first opportunity to showcase their business.

The pageant was sponsored by Malabar Gold and Diamonds. Malbar is located in 9 countries, with 230 stores globally. Malabar Gold and Diamonds is shortly opening up its

Raja Krishnamoorthi Introduces Immigration Innovation Bill

BY A STAFF WRITER HICAGO, IL— Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi and U.S. Representative Mike Coffman have introduced a bill that promises to streamline the H-1B high-skilled worker program, while increasing investment in American STEM education for K-12, post-secondary, or college program students.

The Immigration Innovation Act of 2018 would grant H-1B holders the flexibility to move to new jobs while allowing their spouses holding H-4 visas the right to continue their careers and contribute to the American economy, according to a Krishnamoorthi and Coffman joint news release.

The legislation also reduces the green card backlog by expanding education-based exemptions from per-country caps for H-1B holders and reducing demand by allowing U.S. university-educated professionals to apply directly for conditional green cards, it said.

“To develop the skills of our domestic

workforce, our bill increases investments in our education system to guarantee that American workers are trained for high-tech jobs. It also reforms the visa system for highly-skilled workers which allows American businesses to compete in the global economy,” Krishnamoorthi said in a statement.

In addition to the Immigration Innovation Act’s reforms to the H-1B and green card systems, the legislation would ban employers from hiring H-1B holders to replace American workers while increasing funding for STEM education at the K-12, post-secondary and university levels, it said.

“Our immigration policies must fit with the economic needs of our country,” said Coffman.

“One critical part of Congress” job is ensuring that immigration laws match our country’s hightech workforce requirements as well as meet the needs of H1-B visa applicants and their families.”

Under the bill, fees collected for H-1B visas and conditional green cards will go to state-administered funds to promoted domestic STEM education and worker training, including financial aid and research initiatives.

These expanded investments in advanced training for the domestic workforce, thanks to the Immigration Innovation Act, would ultimately reduce demand for foreign workers while helping the American economy grow, the release said.

Two Charged with driving under the influence

BY A STAFF WRITER HICAGO, IL— Javed K. Noor, 39, was charged with driving under the influence and violating an order of protection after he was located inside a parked vehicle that was running in an alley behind the 9000 block of North Cumberland Avenue According to police. One of the two passengers in the vehicle had an order of protection against Noor, and he was also found to have a warrant for failing to appear in court on a prior DUI charge, police said.

BY A STAFF WRITER am D. Gopal, an Indian American professor and the University of Connecticut’s Operations and Information Management, has resigned in the wake of allegations that he violated the university’s policies by unduly favoring his administrative assistant.

Gopal was accused of engaging in an inappropriate relationship with an employee whom he supervised, according to university spokesperson Stephanie Reitz.

Gopal also violated school’s travel policies, including invalid business travel expenses and taking his administrative assistant, Melissa Burk, on non-university related trips, and also approving compensatory time for her without proper approvals, according to an official university memo, according to the UConn Daily Campus.

University memo in December 2017 cited that UConn Audit and Management Advisory Services was asked to assist the Office of University Compliance on an anonymous allegation that Gopal and Burk incorrectly charged business travel expenses to the university.

The assistant accompanied Gopal on trips to Dublin, Ireland; Los Angeles, Calif.; South Korea, and India. They billed the university nearly $24,000 for those trips that were used for “sightseeing.”

Burk and Gopal were also reported to have approved each other’s travel expenditures as well as their joint participation in travel despite him being her direct supervisor.

Before tending his resignation, Reitz said, Gopal offered to reimburse the university for all improper travel expenses incurred. It is unclear if that happened.

Gopal was hired by UConn in 1993.

Burk is still employed by the university.

rime Minister Narendra Modi on September 23 launched the ‘Ayushman Bharat — Pradhan Mantri Jan Aarogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY)’, hailing it as the “worlds biggest state-run healthcare scheme”.

Launching the scheme, Modi said the intended beneficiaries outnumber the total population of the European Union or that of the USA, Canada and Mexico put together.

Modi said that the scheme, which targets more than 50 crore people, will be a subject for research for medical and social scientists and a model for the world to follow. He had announced AB-PMJAY in his Independence Day speech.

Without taking names, Modi used the occasion to target the Con-

A

NEW YORK: Children suffering from asthma are more likely to develop the risk of anxiety during adulthood, finds a new study.

In the study, done on 98 mice, a team from the Pennyslvannia State University and Cornell University, found that childhood exposure to allergens was linked to persistent lung inflammation and was also connected to changes in gene expression related to stress and serotonin function.

The study, published in the journal Frontiers in Behavioural Neuroscience, also found that episodes of labored breathing were associated with short-term anxiety.

“The idea of studying this link between asthma and anxiety is a pretty new area, and right now we don’t know what the connection is,” said Sonia Cavigelli, associate professor at the varsity.

“What we saw in the mice was that attacks of labored breathing may cause short-term anxiety, but that long-term effects may be due to lasting lung inflammation,” Cavigelli added.

There were also differences in the results between male and female mice, the researchers observed.

Chaibasa and Koderma in Ranchi, and distributed e-card, a unique health identity card, to the beneficiaries of PMJAY. Jharkhand Governor Draupadi Murmu, Chief Minister Raghubar Das and Union Ministers J.P. Nadda and Jayant Sinha were present on the occasion.

The scheme will provide a cover of up to Rs 5 lakh per family per year, for secondary and tertiary care hospitalization through a network of Empanelled Health Care Providers (EHCP).

The EHCP network will provide cashless and paperless access to services for the beneficiaries at both public and private hospitals.

The services will include 1,350 procedures covering pre- and posthospitalization, diagnostics and medicines.

The research team found that a man, paralysed since 2013, regained his ability to step with a front-wheeled walker while trainers provided occasional assistance after 22 weeks of physical therapy

and an electrode surgically implanted.

The man, now 29, injured his spinal cord at the thoracic vertebrae in the middle of his back in a snowmobile accident in 2013.

He was diagnosed with a complete loss of function below the spinal cord injury.

“What this is teaching us is that those networks of neurons below a spinal cord injury still can function after paralysis,” said coauthor Kendall Lee from Mayo Clinic in Minnesota.

The implant sits in the epidural space — the outermost part of the spinal canal — at a specific location below the injured area. (Photo: abc.net.au)

In the study, published in the journal Nature Medicine, the participant underwent 22 weeks of physical therapy and was implanted with an electrode — that con-

nects to a pulse generator device under the skin of the man’s abdomen and communicates wirelessly with an external controller.

Health awareness seeps into interiors of Bengal BINITA DAS, PURULIA

S

hruti Roy, a chubby sevenmonth-old baby of Loharsole village in this West Bengal district bordering Jharkhand, is a far cry from all-too-familiar pictures of malnourished children.

And as awareness grows among the shy and conservative pregnant women and lactating mothers of this region, more and more infants now resemble Shruti.

Awareness is being spread thanks to initiatives of the state government that appears determined to bring down West Bengal’s rate of underweight children, currently at 31.6 per cent as per the National Family Health Survey (2015-16).

Shruti’s mother, Ashtami Roy, who valued her daughter’s health

over tradition, told a group of visiting journalists: “I gave sattu and bananas to my daughter when she was six months old.”

The Bede community residing in Loharsole village were snake

charmers by profession. They are tribal people residing in mud huts in the extreme interiors. The total population of the village is 532.

Talking about the gradual change and their initiatives,

Amitabha Patra, District Programme Officer, Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS), said: “We provide supplementary nutrition for pregnant and lactating women and for the children up to six years. In order to counter calorie- and protein-related malnourishment, we provide nutritional support.”

“We have been able to make them understand the importance of exclusive breastfeeding of newborns till six months and the importance of the mother’s first milk,” he said. Colostrum provides protective antibodies and essential nutrients, acting as a first “natural” immunization for newborns, strengthening their immune system and reducing the chances of death in the neonatal period.

Aadhaar can’t be hacked, vested interests spreading lies: UIDAI “Certain vested interests are deliberately trying to create confusion in the minds of people which is completely unwarranted,” a statement issued by the organization said IANS, NEW DELHI

T

he Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) this week dismissed reports of hacking of Aadhaar enrolment software as “completely incorrect and irresponsible” and said some vested interests were deliberately trying to create confusion among people.

The denial came after an investigation by HuffPost India revealed that the Aadhaar database, which contains the biometrics and personal information of over one billion Indians, “had been compromised by a software patch which disables critical security features of the software used to enrol new Aadhaar users”.

According to the report, any unauthorized person from anywhere in the world can generate Aadhaar ID using the patch which is freely available for Rs 2,500.

The UIDAI said the claims about Aadhaar being vulnerable to tampering lacked substance and were totally baseless. “Certain vested interests are deliberately trying to create confusion in the minds of people which is completely unwarranted,” a statement issued by the

MIT robot can visually understand objects never seen before NEW YORK: Imagine letting a robot clean your house while you are at work, or to clear your tables.

That’s exactly what the novel robot developed by researchers at the MIT can do.

The team at the MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), developed a novel system which lets robots inspect random objects, and visually understand them enough to accomplish specific tasks without ever having seen them before.

The system, dubbed “Dense Object Nets” (DON), looks at objects as collections of points that serve as “visual roadmaps” of sorts. This approach lets robots better understand and manipulate items and allows them to even pick up a specific object among a clutter of similar objects — a valuable skill for the kinds of machines that companies like Amazon and Walmart use in their warehouses, the researchers said.

—IANS

The UIDAI said that the reported claim of “anybody is able to create an entry into Aadhaar database, then the person can create multiple Aadhaar cards” is completely false. (Photo: telecominfo.org)

organization said. It added that the UIDAI matches all the biometric (10 fingerprints and both iris) of a resident enrolling for Aadhaar with the biometrics of all Aadhaar holders before issuing the unique ID. “UIDAI has taken all necessary safeguard measures spanning from providing standardized software that encrypts entire data even before saving to any disk, protecting data using tamper proofing, identifying every one of the operators in every

enrolment, identifying every one of thousands of machines using a unique machine registration process, which ensures every encrypted packet is tracked,” the statement said. It said all measures to ensure end-to-end security of resident data were taken including full encryption of resident data at the time of capture, tamper resistance, physical security, access control, network security, stringent audit mechanism, 24x7 security and fraud

management system monitoring.

Earlier, a report by the HuffPost said a software patch available for as little as Rs 2,500 lets a user bypass critical security features such as biometric authentication of enrolment operators to generate unauthorized Aadhaar numbers. It said the patch also disables the GPS security feature of the software allowing anyone from any location to enrol users.

UIDAI clarified that no operator can make or update Aadhaar unless

resident himself gives his biometric.

“Any enrolment or update request is processed only after biometrics of the operator is authenticated and resident’s biometrics is de-duplicated at the backend of UIDAI system,” it said.

It added that as part of its “stringent” enrolment and updation process, UIDAI checks enrolment operator’s biometric and other parameters before processing the enrolment or updates and only after all checks are found to be successful, enrolment or update of resident is further processed.

“Therefore it is not possible to introduce ghost entries into Aadhaar database.” UIDAI said that even in a hypothetical situation where a ghost enrolment or update packet is sent to the UIDAI by some “manipulative attempt”, the same is identified by the robust back-end system and all such enrolment packets get rejected and no Aadhaar is generated. “Also, the concerned enrolment machines and the operators are identified, blocked and blacklisted permanently from the UIDAI system. In appropriate cases, police complaints are also filed for such fraudulent attempts,” it said.

IBM, IIT Bombay to accelerate AI research IANS, MUMBAI

T

ech giant IBM this week announced a partnership with IIT Bombay to advance artificial intelligence (AI) research in India.

As part of the partnership, the varsity will join IBM’s “AI Horizons Network”, an international consortium of leading universities working with the software major to develop technologies needed to help fulfil the promise of AI. IIT Bombay will pair its faculty and top graduate students with leading AI scientists from IBM Research to advance and accelerate the application of AI, machine learning (ML), natural language processing and related technologies to business and industry.

“Through this collaboration with IIT Bombay, we aim to accelerate the pace of innovation for AI in India, working hand-in-hand with some of the top scientists and research scholars in the country,” Arvind Krishna, Senior-Vice Presi-

The partnership will help faculty and students to accelerate the application of AI, machine learning to business and industry. (Photo: softwarefocus.net)

dent, Hybrid Cloud and Director, IBM Research, said in a statement.

This area of research will be critical for developing new AI applications in key industries such as financial services, retail and healthcare, which rely heavily on rich, multi-modal content.

The collaboration will also work in the field of training and building domain-specific AI agents (chatbots), which are designed to aid humans in complex decision making such as trading and investment choices in financial services.

Additionally, work is planned to

explore new, domain-neutral training approaches which could enable faster, more efficient training of AI systems. “This partnership will enable IIT Bombay faculty to work in collaboration with researchers around the world on the frontiers of AI focusing on industrially relevant problems and will provide access to large data sets,” said Prof.

Devang Khakhar, Director, IIT Bombay. This collaboration makes IIT Bombay the first institution outside North America to join the IBM “AI Horizons Network”.

Globally, eight leading universities are working with IBM, in key areas designed to accelerate the development of AI technologies, and others, as well as their application to big societal challenges, ranging from aiding the understanding of disease, education and cybersecurity.

They include Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Renesselaer Polytechnic Institute, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign among others.
