Panic as Rs 500 / Rs 1,000 notes demonetized in Modi's war on black money New Delhi (IANS): There was panic run on ATMs across the country as Prime Minister Narendra Modi surprised the nation by declaring that Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes will not be legal tender from midnight Tuesday, in a new war on black money and terrorism. Addressing the nation at 8 p.m., Modi urged people not to panic and said all the Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denomination notes they have can be deposited in banks and post offices from November 10 to December 30 without any limit. These can also be exchanged across bank counters by showing government-issued ID proof up to Rs 4,000. New Rs 500 and Rs 2,000 denomination notes would take their place. "To break the grip of corruption and black money, we have decided that the 500 and 1,000 rupee currency notes presently in use will no longer be legal tender from midnight tonight," Modi said, speaking first in Hindi and then in English. "This means that these notes will not be acceptable for transactions from midnight onwards. The 500 and 1,000 notes hoarded by anti-national and anti-social elements will become just worthless pieces of paper." But he quickly added that "the rights and the interests of honest, hard-working people will be fully protected" and that all other denomination notes and coins would remain legal tender. All banks would be shut for public on Wednesday. ATMs too would not function on Wednesday and in some areas

even on Thursday. T h e o p p o s i t i o n r o u n d ly denounced the move. C o n g re s s l e a d e r M a n i s h Tewari called Modi "a modern d ay Tu g h l a q " w h i l e p a r t y colleague Randeep Surjewala questioned the wisdom of introducing Rs 2,000 currency notes. FICCI President Harshvardhan Neotia said: "This is an extremely bold move ... and will have a debilitating impact on the parallel economy as well as deal a body blow to terror financing." Within minutes of Modi's announcement, hundreds of thousands of people all over India rushed to the nearest ATMs in a desperate bid to withdraw 100 rupees notes and deposit whatever 500 and 1,000 rupees notes they had. In no time, most ATMs ran out of 100 rupee currency. Modi said: "India has taken a historic step to fight corruption, black money, terrorism and counterfeit currency." He said keeping in mind the supply of new notes, in the first few days there would be a limit of 10,000 rupees per day and 20,000 rupees per week for

withdrawal from banks. This limit would go up in the coming days. The Prime Minister said that for their immediate needs, people can go to any bank and post offices, show identity proof and exchange old 500 and 1,000 rupee notes for new notes. From November 10 to 24, the limit for such exchange would be Rs 4,000. The limit will go up from November 25 till December 30. Those failing to meet the December 30 deadline can go to specified offices of the Reserve Bank of India up to March 31, 2017 and deposit the notes after submitting a declaration form. W h e n t h e AT M s re s u m e operation, there would be a limit of Rs 2,000 per day per card on withdrawal, the Prime Minister said. This would be raised to Rs 4,000 later. To reduce hardship to people, government hospitals would accept both 500 and 1,000 rupee notes for 72 hours. So would pharmacies in government hospitals as well as railway ticket booking counters, ticket counters of government buses and airline ticket counters at airports. RBI Deputy Governor R. Gandhi said there were 16.5 billion units of Rs 500 notes in circulation while the number for Rs 1,000 notes was 6.7 billion. In his speech, Modi said the spectre of corruption and black money had grown over the decades, weakening efforts to remove poverty. "The evil of corruption has been spread by certain sections of society" who he said had ignored the poor and cornered all the benefits. “

Modi calls for action against state sponsors of terrorism New Delhi (IANS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday called for action against state sponsors of terrorism as Britain joined India in asking Pakistan to act against terrorists who perpetrated the 2008 Mumbai and 2016 Pathankot terror attacks. Britain also offered India its Registered Traveller Scheme to boost trade and investment making it the first visaholding country to avail of the facility. In a joint address to the media following delegationlevel talks with visiting British Prime Minister Theresa May here, Modi said he and May discussed “ways to purposefully work together to combat the growing forces of radicalisation and terrorism”. “We agreed that it is not a limited security challenge. Its arc of threat spreads across nations and regions. Terrorists move across borders with ease, and endanger the entire humanity,” he said. “I conveyed our deep concerns to Prime Minister May regarding cross-border terrorism and the need for the international community to take strong action against states that support and sponsor terrorism.” In a joint statement issued after their meeting here, Modi and May “reiterated their call for Pakistan to bring the perpetrators of the November 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai and the 2016 Pathankot attack to justice”. May strongly condemned the

investor confidence in the fast growing Indian economy.” Modi said he also discussed defence and security partnership with May. “I encourage British companies to look at the multiple opportunities in the Indian defence sector,” he stated. On her part, Prime Minister May said that Britain and India faced the shared threat of terrorism and the two countries have agreed to strengthen cooperation in tackling use of internet by extremists. “We both face the shared threat of terrorism as individual countries, as partners, and as global powers,” she said. “We have agreed to strengthen our cooperation, in particular, by sharing best practice to tackle use of internet by violent extremists,” she said. Stating that India is a leading power of the world, May reiterated that Britain would like to see India take a permanent seat in the UN Security

September 18 terror attack on the Indian Army camp in Uri in Jammu and Kashmir, according to the statement. “The two leaders strongly affirmed that terrorism is a serious threat to humanity and reiterated strong commitment to combat terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. They stressed there can be no justification for acts of terror on any grounds whatsoever -- agreeing that there should be zero tolerance against terrorism,” said the statement. In his address to the media, Modi said that growing business partnerships and expanding trade and capital flows between India and Britain were crucial to the economic partnership. “Indian companies have been successfully raising finance from the City of London,” he said. “We are encouraged by the London Stock Exchange presently hosting several rupee-denominated Masala bonds.

Council. She called for breaking down barriers in trade and investment while voicing support for free trade between India and Britain. In this connection, she said that India has been made the first visa-holding country to avail of Britain’s Registered Traveller Scheme. The Registered Traveller Scheme is currently available for nationals from Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and the US. As for student visas, she said that Britain would continue to welcome the “best and brightest” of Indian students. According to the joint state-

ment, the two leaders also welcomed the fourth phase of the joint UK-India Civil Nuclear Research Programme which looks at new technologies for enhancing nuclear safety and advanced materials for nuclear systems. The Prime Ministers of India and Britain said they will jointly mark out areas in defence and security for mutual future ambitions for training and cooperation. They also expressed satisfaction over the progress made to establish an India-UK SubFund under the National Investment and Infrastructure Fund (NIIF). The fund seeks to leverage private sector investment from the City of London to

finance Indian infrastructure projects under the NIIF umbrella. Earlier on Monday, Modi and May addressed the India-UK Tech Summit here. This is May’s first bilateral visit outside of Europe since she assumed the Prime Minister’s office in July this year. She took over the prime ministership after David Cameron resigned following the historic referendum in June in which Britain voted to exit from the European Union. Cameron rooted for Britain to stay in the EU. May’s visit comes a little less than a year after Modi’s visit to Britain in November last year.

CWC members favour Rahul’s elevation as party chief, attack Modi government marks in which he accused the Narendra Modi government of being “obsessed with power”, and that democracy under the present dispensation was going through one of its “darkest hours”. The CWC adopted a resolution blaming the government for “growing intolerance and jobless growth” and asserted that the party will continue to fight the “communal agenda of the BJP and the RSS”.

of seeking to derive political mileage from the Indian Army’s surgical strikes across the Line of Control in September and said that the promised One Rank One Pension had not been implemented in a “meaningful way.” The party also decided to seek one more year’s extension from the Election Commission for holding organisational elections. The push for Rahul Gandhi’s elevation as Congress chief came after senior leader A.K. Antony raised the issue and was supported by all the members present including former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. Rahul Gandhi also signalled his inclination to take up the post, saying he was willing to take up any role decided by the party and the CWC. Antony told media persons later that it was the first time that the CWC had issued its “strong sentiments” on the issue. “In today’s working committee meeting, members unanimously expressed their strong sentiments that respecting the wishes of crores of party workers and well-wishers that Rahul Gandhi ji must take over the presidentship of the Congress party,” Antony said in a joint press briefing with party leader Randeep Singh Surjewala. “We are recommending this for the first time to the Congress President. The final decision has to be that of the party President,” he added. Rahul Gandhi, 46, was appointed Vice President in January 2013 at Congress’ brainstorming session in Jaipur. A party leader, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said that Rahul Gandhi’s elevation will definitely occur before December and another CWC meeting may be called for the purpose. “The coming assembly polls, including those in crucial state of Uttar Pradesh, will be fought with Rahul Gandhi as the party chief,” he said. Party leaders said that Sonia Gandhi, who has been the longest serving president of the party since taking over in 1998 but has faced health problems in the recent past, will continue to be a guiding force.

In his remarks, Rahul Gandhi also charged the Modi government with seeking to “silence all those who disagree”. “Hiding behind the cloak of national security, civil society is being intimidated for asking questions. Television channels are being punished and asked to shut down. The opposition is being arrested for holding the government to account,” he said. Calling for “exposing” the Modi government in the upcoming Parliament session, Gandhi said: “Asking questions is what discomforts this government the most, for they have no answers.” On Pakistan, he said the government’s policy has swung “from one extreme to another.” The resolution adopted by CWC also accused the government of “delay in the appointments of judges to the higher judiciary”. It also observed key parameters of the economy were in sharp decline, noting that the Bharatiya Janata Party came to power on the promise of creating two crore [20 million] jobs annually. It asked the government to redress payment anomalies in OROP, correct its orders “about the cut in the disability pension” and address concerns about disparity between civilian and military grades. Referring to surgical strikes, it urged the government “to give up its crude attempt to gain political advantage out of the essentially military action”, noting “false claims, chest thumping and jingoism have no place in a mature democracy”. The CWC also discussed preparations for upcoming assembly polls in Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Goa and Manipur.

Can’t impose yoga, says Supreme Court New Delhi (IANS): The Supreme Court on Monday said that it could not impose yoga on anyone or frame its curriculum as it declined to entertain a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) seeking direction to make yoga a part of school syllabus. Dismissing the PIL and asking the petitioner to implead itself in the similar matter being heard by another bench of the top court, a bench of Chief Justice T.S. Thakur, Justice

D.Y.Chandrachud and Justice L.Nageswara Rao told the petitioner to go and persuade the people to practice yoga. PIL petitioner Ashwini Upadhyay had sought direction to the Human Resource Development Ministry, the National Council of Educational Research and Training, the National Council for Teacher Education and the Central Board of Secondary Education to “provide standard textbooks of ‘yoga and health

education’ for students of Class 1 to 8” in spirit of the Constitution’s Article 21A read with Article 14, 15 and 21. As senior counsel M.N. Krishnamani appearing for Upadhyay urged the court to consider the prayer, Chief Justice Thakur asked him if he was doing yoga even in this polluted environment, and the last ‘asana’ he had performed. As he did not

answer, the court said that it was not impressed by his knowledge of yoga. “We are not impressed by your knowledge of yoga. That shows you are not doing yoga,” observed the bench in a lighter vein. “Mr Krishnamani, you are not doing yoga nowadays, other-

wise you would have remembered the listof yoga you did,” said the Chief Justice. “The government of India celebrates international yoga day and it is observed in other countries as well. People themselves will pick yoga. We can’t frame curriculum,” the bench observed rejecting the PIL.

JNU students protest at Delhi Police headquarters New Delhi (IANS): Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) students staged another protest on Monday at Delhi Police headquarters here, condemning the manner in which police officers subdued the missing JNU student Najeeb Ahmed’s mother

ing failure to carry out the required method for tracing Ahmed. Ahmed’s mother Fatima Nafees and his sister Sadaf Musharraf also took part in the protest. Musharraf was seen with an injured and bandaged hand, which she attribut-

and sister. At least 150 students gathered at the police headquarters and raised slogans denouncing Delhi Police and JNU authorities for their persist-

ed to the police “roughness” on Sunday. “I say here something but something else is shown on TV. Even in yesterday’s news, one of the TV channels termed

our protest as drama. I don’t want to say anything, my hand is paining badly... I can’t even move it,” Musharraf told IANS. A complaint letter was also submitted by the students to Joint Commissioner of Police R.P. Upadhyay regarding Sunday’s episode of “police manhandling Musharraf and Nafees”. Around 300 students from JNU were detained on Sunday when they, along with Musharraf and Nafees, were protesting near India Gateagainst Delhi Police for failing to trace Najeeb. President Pranab Mukherjee on Sunday promised action after Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal urged him to direct the Modi government to step up efforts to trace the JNU student missing for over three weeks.

There were several others who aired the coverage of the attack but no action was taken against them,� said media personality Rajdeep Sardesai. “We need to challenge the audacity of these bureaucrats, how can they just take a decision to impose a ban among themselves? Media organisation are liable to respond to self regulatory bodies. It is precisely for these kind of circumstances that we find ourselves in that we had formed these bodies,� he added.

The government on November 7 put on hold its order asking NDTV that its Hindi channel would be shut for 24 hours on November 9 for allegedly flouting norms.

Journalists, who held a protest meet at the Press Club of India here, passed a resolution criticising the government’s decision of singling out just one channel for the alleged breach of telecast norms. The ban was imposed by the Information and Broadcasting Ministry for what it called a leak of strategic information of national importance by the Hindi channel in its coverage of the January 2 Pathankot terror attack on the Indian Air Force base. The government however on Monday put on hold the ban as the media group moved the Supreme Court to challenge the legality of the gag order. Representatives of Editors Guild, Indian Jour-

pilots to be eased New Delhi (IANS): The Indian Air Force (IAF) is prepared to strike off a number of ailments, which earlier forced pilots to be grounded, including some spinal conditions. Speaking on the sidelines of the 64th International Congress of Aviation and Space Medicine here on Monday, Air Marshal Pawan Kapoor, Director General Medical Services (Air), said no evidence was found that spinal deformities like Schmorl’s nodes affect flying, though it was earlier thought that it may lead to fracture in case of ejection or other such situations. Kapoor said there have been case studies where pilots with such problems have performed normally. “We have bigger problem on the spinal deformities. We have taken a call on it after going through various evidences, national and international literature, and research we have done, we are now getting some of those pilots, who were rendered unfit for flying, and we are now taking out a new order where they will be considered for commissioning purposes,� Kapoor said. “There are 10-12 ailments which have already been taken off. Rest are in the pipeline and decision is likely in next 7-10 days,� he said. The Air Marshal said administrative approval is awaited for taking the ailments off the list. Speaking at the inauguration of the conference, Air Force Chief, Air Chief Marshal Arup Raha said although modern aircraft with advanced technology are highly capable, human limitations -- physical, physiological and psychological -- at times do not allow the exploitation of these machines to their full potential. “This gap is bridged by the aviation medicine specialists,� he said.

Any discrimination of women needs prompt burial, says Supreme Court shall take steps for the reconstitution of the statutory bodies so that they can become immediately functional after expiry of the term. The court said that the statutory authorities “shall meet regularly so that the provisions of the Act can be implemented in reality and the effectiveness of the legislation is felt and realised in the society�. As court issued fresh directions, it noted that despite the directions issued by the court earlier, there had not been proper implementation and that has compelled the petitioner, the Voluntary Health Association of Punjab to knock the doors of the top court. Having issued 16 directions, the court said: “When freedom of free choice is allowed within constitutional and statutory parameters, others cannot determine the norms as that would amount to acting in derogation of law.� Decrease in the sex ratio is a sign of colossal calamity, the judgment said, adding “it cannot be allowed to happen. Concrete steps have to be taken to increase the same so that invited social disasters do not befall on the society�. The present generation, the judgment said, “is

Kolkata (IANS): Terming Narendra Modiled BJP government’s decision to demonetise higher denomination notes as “abrupt� and “chaotic�, a noted economist on Tuesday said the step has given a “negative shock� to the nation, but would have no impact on black money circulating in the country. Referring to an earlier instance of demonetisation carried out in the country, Abhiroop Sarkar, Professor at Indian Statistical Institute, told IANS: “It had no effect on the circulation of black money. Actually, the very premise that demonetisation will help in removing the menace is wrong.� “That’s because people don’t stack black money in cash. Rather, they stash it in undisclosed accounts in Swiss Banks. So demonetisation won’t affect the big fish,� said Sarkar. Sarkar said that considering the black money circulating in our country, Rs 1 crore is a small amount. If you want to trap the big black money holders, you need to look at sums of Rs 100 crores. “But is it feasible for them to horde such big amounts in cash? That doesn’t make sense,� he said. In 1978, the Janata Party government of Prime Minister Morarji Desai had demonetised currency notes of Rs 1,000, Rs 5,000 and Rs 10,000. “But that was not done so abruptly. In the present case within a few hours notes of denomination of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 have become illegal. That has only led to a chaotic situation. People are confused. It has come to the nation as a negative shock.�

New Delhi (IANS): The Supreme Court on Tuesday said that any perception - historical, individual, group or a system - that treats women with “inequity, indignity, inequality or any kind of discrimination is constitutionally impermissible� and has to be given “prompt burial�. The bench of Justice Dipak Misra and Justice Shiva Kirti Singh, in their judgment, said: “Female foeticide is conceived by the society that definitely includes the parents because of unethical perception of life and nonchalant attitude towards law.� “The society that treats man and woman with equal dignity shows the reflections of a progressive and civilised society. To think that a woman should think what a man or a society wants her to think is tantamount to slaughtering her choice, and definitely a humiliating act� said Justice Misra speaking for the bench. “When freedom of free choice is allowed within constitutional and statutory parameters, others cannot determine the norms as that would amount to acting in derogation of law,� said the court, as it issued 16 directions to curb female foeticide and reverse alarming male-female ratio. The court directed that all the states and union territories “shall maintain a centralised database of civil registration records from all registration units so that information can be made available from the website regarding the number of boys and girls being born�. Information displayed on the website “shall contain the birth information for each District, Municipality, Corporation or Gram Panchayat so that a visual comparison of boys and girls born can be immediately seen�. The statutory authorities, the court directed, if not constituted, as envisaged under the Pre-conception and Pre-natal Diagnostic Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act, 1994, “shall be constituted forthwith� and the competent authorities

Kirpal Singh Badungar elected SGPC president Amritsar (IANS): Sikh intellectual Kirpal Singh Badungar was on Saturday elected as the new president of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the mini parliament of the religion, officials said. Badungar will replace outgoing SGPC president Avtar Singh Makkar, who remained in the post for 11 years. The election for the SGPC top post was held after nearly six years. Punjab’s ruling Shiromani Akali Dal dominates the SGPC. The SGPC general house had, on Friday, authorised Akali Dal President

Sukhbir Singh Badal to select the new SGPC president. Badungar, who is known for his work on Sikh history, will have a new team of office bearers and executives to work with. Shiromani Akali Dal spokesman and Punjab Education minister Daljit Singh Cheema welcomed the “unanimous election” of Badungar.

Punjab’s largest solar power plant inaugurated Bathinda (IANS): Punjab’s Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal on Tuesday inaugurated the state’s largest solar power plant of 100 MW set up near here the Adani Group subsidiary Adani Green Energy Ltd at an investment of around Rs 640 crore. Badal said the plant would prove to be a game changer not only for 232 farmers who have given their land on lease for the project but would also act as a catalyst for others to follow. Badal said this is the country’s biggest horizontal single axis tracker plant at a single location and would be instrumental in changing the face of the state. The Deputy Chief Minister said the state is contemplating bringing approximately 25,000 acres under the solar power. He said the state government has accomplished what it promised, as is clear from the allround progress the state has made. Badal said in the next five years all 12,000 villages of the state would be provided with sewerage facilities, solar lights and concretised streets at a cost of Rs 35,000 crore. He said the airport at Bathinda would be operationalised soon, providing a major relief to the people of the region. State’s New and Renewable Energy Minister Bikram Singh Majithia said the times are changing fast and the solar power is fast emerging as the core sector with ample scope

“He has all the qualities and experience to be the SGPC chief. He has been elected for the third time,” Cheema told media. The election and change of guard of the SGPC president has come at a time when the Sikh religion is facing crisis in Punjab due to repeated incidents of sacrilege of Guru Granth Sahib.

for the future. He said the farmers who have given their lands for the plant would get Rs 55,000 per acre per annum which would increase by five percent every year. The solar power sector has attracted most investment in Punjab and it is evident from the fact that in 2012 the investment was Rs 82 crore which has today risen to Rs 10,000 crore, Majithia said. The minister said Mansa, Bathinda and Muktsar are emerging as a hub of solar power. The Adani Group said the 100 MW solar plant project at Sardargarh and Chughe Kalan villages has been commissioned almost six months ahead of schedule. “We are moving closer to our aim of revolutionising the renewable energy sector in India,” an official statement quoting Jayant Parimal, Chief Executive Officer of Renewable Energy Business of the Adani Group, said. Apart from the 100 MW Solar Power Plant in Bhatinda, the company also has a 40 MW solar plant at Bitta in Gujarat and has recently unveiled a 648 MW solar power project at Ramanathapuram district in Tamil Nadu. It is the world’s largest solar power plant at a single location. The company has also signed a JV with the Rajasthan government to develop the country’s largest solar park in the state with 10,000 MW capacity.

Setback for Punjab as Supreme Court strikes down law axing water sharing New Delhi (IANS): In a setback to Punjab, the Supreme Court on Thursday struck down as unconstitutional its 2004 law intended to deny Haryana its share of SutlejYamuna water, saying the 1981 agreement was legally binding and Punjab could not

act unilaterally to nullify an apex court decree’s effect. Holding the Punjab Termination of Agreement Act, 2004, not in conformity with constitutional provisions, the constitution bench of Justice Anil R. Dave, Justice Pina-

ki Chandra Ghose, Justice Shiva Kirti Singh, Justice Adarsh Kumar Goel and Justice Amitava Roy answered in the negative all the four questions referred to the apex court in a Presidential reference. “The Punjab act cannot be said to be in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution of India and by virtue of the said act, the state of Punjab cannot nullify the (apex court’s 2002 and 2004) judgment and decree and terminate the agreement dated 31st December, 1981.” “We are of the view that the Punjab act cannot be considered to be legal and valid and the state of Punjab can not absolve itself from its duties/liabilities arising out of the agreement in question,” held Justice Dave, speaking for the bench. The verdict also said that Punjab cannot discharge itself from an obligation arising from the court’s January 15, 2002 and January 4, 2004 judgments and decree. In a separate opinion, Justice Singh said: “…delay in execution of a final judgment or decree, more so when it is of the apex court, should never be countenanced by any authority because it would surely tend to undermine people’s faith in the judicial system…” and would mean “avoidable harm to all the institutions and functionaries under the Constitution, may be even to the Constitution itself ”. The court said that the existing agreement has “thus a legal sanction” and once a court has passed a binding decree, any party to the litigation cannot unilaterally act in a manner to nullify the decree’s effect. Holding that the Punjab law clearly violated the 1981 agreement, the court said the state had “exceeded its legislative power in proceeding to nullify the decree of this Court and therefore, the Punjab Act cannot be said to be a validly enacted legislation ..” The court said that the agreement, about sharing Ravi and Beas rivers water, could not have been unilaterally terminated by any of the parties through its legislative

power and if done, “such unilateral action of a particular state has to be declared contrary to the Constitution of India as well as the provisions of the Inter State Water Disputes Act, 1956”. It also rejected Punjab’s contention that July 22, 2004 Presidential reference was not maintainable and should be returned unanswered, ruling this was “not a case where this court would like to refuse to give its opinion to the President under the provisions of Article 143 of the Constitution … as there is no good reason for the same”. The reference had sought the court’s advisory opinion on four questions including whether the Punjab law was were in accordance with provisions of the Constitution, Section 14 of the Inter-State Water Disputes Act, 1956, Section 78 of the Punjab Reorganisation Act, 1966 and its March 24, 1976, notification. Besides this, it had also sought the top court’s advisory opinion on whether Punjab had validly terminated the 1981 agreement and all others relating to the Ravi-Beas waters and was discharged from its obligation under them, and also the top court’s judgments, orders and decrees of January 15, 2002 and June 4, 2004. As Punjab was not implementing the 1981 agreement with it and Rajasthan on sharing Ravi and Beas’ waters, Haryana moved the apex court, which on January 15, 2002 held it was the central government’s duty to see the agreement was complied with fully. It also asked Punjab to complete the construction of the Sutlej-Yamuna Link canal within its territory in one year, failing which the central government would take over the work, and this was ordered in its 2004 judgment. Subsequently, the then Congress government headed by Amarinder Singh got passed the act terminating all water-sharing agreements with Haryana, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Chandigarh and Delhi.

India’s batting in good health: Laxman Chess Grandmaster Harikrishna enters top 10 in rankings

New Delhi (IANS): Former batting stalwart V.V.S. Laxman has said he was impressed by the performance of Indian batsmen in the recently concluded cricket series against New Zealand.

An elegant batsman during his playing days, Laxman, who was for over a decade part of India’s famed batting order also involving Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and Virender Sehwag, said India have always been a batting-oriented team. Apart from Indian Test skipper Virat Kohli, who scored a career-best knock of 211 runs against New Zealand, Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane also contributed with decent scores. “I am very impressed by the Indian batsmen’s display against New Zealand. Virat Kohli got a big hundred. Then you got Ajinkya Rahane who also got a hundred and India always dominated in the batting department,� Laxman told IANS here. Laxman was in the capital in connection with a media discussion on the upcoming IndiaEngland series. The Test series between India and England which starts in Rajkot on Wednesday, has all the ingredients to be an absolute corker as both teams will field their best playing XI to dominate the proceedings. But India is facing an injury crisis as opener Lokesh Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan and middle-

order batsman Rohit Sharma were ruled out of the Test series. Asked about injury woes to front-line batsmen that can hamper India’s chances during the five-Test England series, Laxman said the best part of the current national team is they have replacements for every player. “I don’t think injuries can hamper the proceedings. The beauty of this Indian team is that you got the replacement for each and every spot,� Laxman, who scored 8,781 Test runs at an average of 45.97 in 134 matches, said. “Gautam Gambhir played really well in the second innings of the Indore Test and he is a experienced player so I am sure he will be looking forward for this opportunity and also the youngsters like Karun Nair and Hardik Pandya, whoever gets to play.� Asked about the lack of Test temperament in the current Indian squad, the 42-year-old backed the batsmen, asserting that they have proved that they can adjust to the demands of the longest format of the game. “There are also many good consistent performances by other players also but they failed to translate into a milestone and that’s something I am sure Murali Vijay will be mindful of as he was really good but was not able to convert into a big score. Pujara also played well so I think batting department as a whole is doing well,� Laxman said. Asked on the possible spin combination with premier off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin during the upcoming series, the Hyderabadi batsman said that he would love to field three spinners against the English side. “I would want to see (Ravindra) Jadeja and Amit Mishra along with Ashwin. I would love to see three spinners bowling against this England batting line-up,� Laxman said. When questioned about the controversial Decision Review System (DRS), which a reluctant Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) agreed to use during the series on a trial basis, Laxman remained non-committal.

Chennai (IANS): Indian chess Grandmaster P. Harikrishna on Sunday became the second Indian chess player to join the elite club of world’s top 10, as per the rating list released by the game’s global body FIDE. As per the latest rating list of FIDE for the month of November, the 30-year-old Harikrishna was ranked 10th with 2768 points. The former World Junior champion hails from Guntur in Andhra Pradesh. The other Indian GM, who is in the elite list, is former world champion V. Anand (2779) at the seventh place. This is the first in the history of Indian chess that two players figure in the world’s top 10 ranking list. The world’s 100th ranked player is GM K. Sasikiran, also from India. As a country, India ranks fifth in the chess world rankings based on the average rating of its top 10 players. The top four chess countries are Russia, the United States, China and Ukraine. However, there is no one from China in the top 10 bracket. In the women’s category too, two Indian GMs figure in the top 10 club -- No.4 Koneru Humpy (2557) and No.6 Harika Dronavalli (2543). Expressing happiness at Harikrishna breaking into the top 10, Andhra Pradesh Chess Association Secretary D. Srihari told IANS: “The state government is interested in supporting chess and the world-class chess players from Andhra. We will also discuss the kind of assistance the state government can provide to Harikrishna, Humpy and Harika so that they can focus on getting the world title to India.� Srihari said the government is interested in promoting chess in schools. According to him, the state chess association would deliberate and decide on celebrating Harikrishna’s latest achievement. A chess coach, preferring anonymity, told

IANS: “It is the right time for the Indian chess federation, and the central and state governments to start ‘Project H’ -- Harikrishna, Humpy and Harika -- in terms of assisting them in getting the necessary facilities so that they can focus on their game and win the world title.� “For Harikrishna, this is an opportune time as he is 30. Hiring an expert foreign trainer is an expensive affair. All these players have come up on their own effort and it is time for the chess federation to take up the matter with the central and the state governments,� the coach added. In Hyderabad, Harikrishna’s parents were elated at the news of their son’s achievement. “His first goal was to break into top 100 and the next goal was to get into the top 10 club. Now his target is to enter the top four club in the world,� Harikrishna’s father P. Nageswara Rao told IANS over phone from Hyderabad. “We went to a temple on hearing the news. Harikrishna is also very happy. He is in Europe playing tournaments there,� Rao added. According to Harikrishna’s mother P. Padmavathy, being a top chess player is a costly affair as one has to have a good trainer -- and good trainers cost a premium. “We are somehow managing now. Harikrishna meets his expenses and also the trainer fees out of the prize money he wins and from his own pocket,� Padmavathy said. According to them, the government should provide some financial assistance to top chess players so that they can focus on their game. One of the problems faced by Harikrishna is that majority of the strong chess tournaments are held in Europe and the organisers invite only one top player from each country. Now that Harikrishna is ranked 10th, there will be more invitations coming his way from major tournament organisers.

Lonely no-celebration birthday for Kamal Haasan KAMAL Haasan turned 62 on Monday with a very subdued birthday. There were no celebrations because, as the actor put it, there is nothing to celebrate. His partner of 13 years left him. Plus, there is a health setback. “My leg which suffered a multifracture in August suffered a neural trauma on Monday. The pain is unbearable. I am on sedation most of the time now. So there is hardly room for celebration,” Kamal said in a groggy voice. Every year he brings in his birthday with two very close friends from outside the film industry who share their birth date with him. “But this time I had to say no to their invitation. There’s too much pain. I am sedated from physical pain. But the other

pain is not something I want to go out in public with,” he said. The exit of Kamal’s partner Gautami Tadimalla, has left him shaken. But he has maintained an outwardly calm. “I am not about to have public breakdowns. Pain is nothing new to me. I’ve dealt with it all my life. But yes, it gets awkward on a birthday when friends and fans want to meet you.” Kamal is also avoiding fan meeting this birthday. “They wouldn’t like me hobbling on one leg and looking groggy with sedation. It gets awkward. This year, I’d rather

be on my own.” So is this the most unhappy birthday of his life? “No. My unhappiest birthday was my 16th birthday. I was aimless, directionless and without any purpose in life. My father called me and gave me a dressing down. I remember I locked myself in my room and cried bitterly. It is the only time I’ve cried on my birthday,” he recalled. The actor-filmmaker has plenty on his plate, all waiting for the leg to heal. “It’s truly frustrating. I want to get back on my feet. There is a film waiting to be completed. There is work to be done. But I am at home sedated against pain. It’s not a good feeling. All I ever wanted was work and someone at home to come back to.” (IANS)

Going to Hollywood has become overrated: Nawazuddin Siddiqui FROM Irrfan Khan and Anupam Kher to Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone -- Indian actors are exploring different avenues of foreign cinema. But Nawazuddin Siddiqui is not impressed with the trend. The actor says the concept of going to Hollywood has become overrated, and wonders why one needs to go outside the country for work when Indian content itself is being appreciated around the world. “What’s the need to go and work in Hollywood when we have such good working avenues here? We have people like Anurag Kashyap who makes films like ‘Raman Raghav 2.0’ or ‘Gangs

of Wasseypur’, or we have films like ‘Miss Lovely’ and ‘The Lunchbox’ which not only earned money abroad but got appreciated too,” Nawazuddin told IANS over phone from Mumbai. “This has become overrated actually... Everyone is going and working there,” the actor added. Nawazuddin’s projects have garnered positive response from the foreign audience. There were also re-

ports that he will star in an international project with Australian actress Nicole Kidman, though nothing has been confirmed so far. All said and done, the actor is not averse to the idea of working in the West. He says he is open to working overseas, but is not getting spare time from his domestic projects. “We have to keep agents for work there... When the idea will come into my mind, then I will hire an agent. For now, there are no such plans because I don’t have time,” he said. The actor will next be seen in Shah Rukh Khan-starrer “Raees”.

Deepika Padukone’s ‘Bollywood blunder’ at MTV Europe Music Awards DEEPIKA Padukone’s military green look at the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMA) 2016 has been tagged as a ‘Bollywood blunder’ by international publications.

Dailymail.co.uk, which had referred to Deepika as the “female companion” of tennis star Novak Djokovic earlier this year, featured the Hindi film star among the ‘Worst Dressed Celebs’ of MTV EMAs, and tagged her as a ‘Bollywood Blunder’. Posting an image of the actress, the publication described the look: “Indian actress Deepika Padukone may be stunning but her swamp green bralet and skirt combo did nothing for her sensational figure.” Another publication, mirror.co.uk, stated: “Indian film actress Deepika Padukone posed on the red carpet in what looked like a pair of giant dark green curtains as a skirt, a black sparkling bralet and huge chandelier earrings.” Deepika is among the top young stars of Hindi cinema, having proved her mettle on the silver screen with myriad roles in films like “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani”, “Chennai Express”, “Cocktail”, “Bajirao Mastani” and “Piku”.

Two Kannada actors drown in film shoot over lake TWO male actors drowned in a lake near Bengaluru on Monday during the shooting of a Kannada movie while enacting a stunt scene by jumping from a helicopter, said police. “Anil and Uday, aged 31 and 38 years, respectively, drowned in the TG Halli lake after they jumped from a chopper along with Kannada hero Duniya Vijay, who survived the stunt and was rescued by fishermen,” police officer H.L. Nandeesha told IANS. The Thippagondanahalli (TG Halli) lake is about 40 km northwest of Bengaluru at the confluence of Arkavathy and Kumudavathi rivers in Ramanagara district. It is one of the sources of drinking water supply to Bengaluru. Efforts were on to recover the bodies of the two from the lake.

The stunt act is the climax of a scene in the upcoming film ‘Maastigudi’ where the hero

(Vijay) chases the two villains trying to escape in a chopper from the lake shore. The

Ranveer Singh promotes ‘Rock On 2’ in special way BOLLYWOOD’S livewire actor Ranveer Singh has promoted Farhan Akhtar’s upcoming film “Rock On 2” by lip-syncing a number from the 2008 film “Rock On!!” The 31-year-old actor on Monday took to Twitter to share a dubsmash video of him lip-syncing the lines of “Pichle saat dinon mein”. “Rock On out in 4 days! ‘Rock On 2’ Farhan Akhtar, Shraddha Kapoor Ar-

jun Rampal Purab Kohli and Ritesh Sidhwani,” Ranveer captioned the video. On the work front, Ranveer is gearing up for the release of his upcoming romantic movie “Befikre” helmed by Aditya Chopra. Also starring Vaani Kapoor, “Befikre”, set to release on December 9, captures the Parisian spirit of freedom and impulsive living. (IANS)

hero too hops onto the chopper, which flies over the lake’s backwaters. As seen from the film footage, aired on local news channels, in a fight between the hero and the duo, the hero pushes both the actors from the chopper and joins them in the reservoir to carry on the fight. “We have registered a criminal case of negligence against the production unit of the film as no precautionary and safety measures were taken for the film shoot,” said Nandeesha. As Vijay survived the fatal jump, Anil and Uday, who did not know how to swim, drowned in the middle of the lake before they could be rescued. “There were no life jackets or a rescue team or an ambulance for such a mishap,” added Nandeesha. (IANS)

Arjun done with ‘Kahaani 2’ dubbing ACTOR Arjun Rampal, who will be sharing the screen with versatile actress Vidya Balan in “Kahaani 2”, has finished dubbing for the film. Arjun says he cannot wait to watch the film’s final copy. “Done with ‘Kahaani 2’ dub. So proud of my friend Sujoy Ghosh, super happy and proud of the film. Can’t wait to watch the final copy,” Arjun tweeted. “Kahaani 2” is the second installment of the “Kahaani” franchise. (IANS)

Even when he came back (from jail), he had called me and we had a chat. He was like, ‘Let’s make films when I come back’. I am very fond of him and he is very fond of me.”

er. There were rumours that the couple secretly went in for a gender test of their yet unborn child, and that they had planned to have the baby in London. It was in July this year when Saif, 46, shared the news that he and Kareena are expecting their first child together in December. Saif, who was earlier married to actress Amrita Singh and has two children Sara and son Ibrahim, tied the knot with Kareena in October 2012. (IANS)

The actor was sentenced to undergo five years’ rigorous imprisonment for illegal possession of arms. Sinha last directed Sanjay Dutt in the 2006 released film “Tathastu”.

ful Meghalaya,” Aamir captioned the image, which features lush green scenery. The couple and their four-year-old son had also visited Arunachal Pradesh recently. On the work front, Aamir is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film “Dangal”, a biographical sports drama film directed by Nitesh Tiwari, who previously helmed popular films like

‘Tum Bin 2’ song ‘Ki kariye nachna...’ created in five days CREATING a new version of party song “Ki kariye nachna aaonda nahin” for forthcoming film “Tum Bin 2”, took just five days, says director Anubhav Sinha. The song, which released on Monday on YouTube features TV actress Mouni Roy, rapper Raftaar, singers Hardy Sandhu and Neha Kakkar.

“Chillar Party” and “Bhootnath Returns”. The film features Aamir portraying the role of Mahavir Singh Phogat, who taught wrestling to his daughters Babita Kumari and Geeta Phogat. He will be seen playing both younger and older characters of Phogat in the film, and he had put on weight up to 95 kg to play the older part. (IANS)

“The idea of ‘Ki kariye nachna...’ struck me when Bhushan Kumar (producer) told me that the film had all the various flavours to it to deem it a hit on the musical aspect, barring the Punjabi tadka,” Sinha said in a statement. “So when we had our wrap up

party in Scotland, I vividly remember the foreigners going crazy on ‘Ki kariye nachna...’ and it was my wish to recreate this song. But due to the paucity of time, we had to create a brand new version in a span of five days. This is the fastest I have ever delivered a soundtrack, complete with a video,” he added. Talking about the inclusion of the song in the film, Kumar says that the first film “Tum Bin” had ten songs. So, “keeping up with the changing times”, the second instalment of the film has only five. “When we saw the film, we realised after looking at the legacy of the original musical hit, that we should have one more song in the film. And here it is.” Composers Gaurav-Roshan have recreated the music, while Sandhu and Kakkar have lent their voices to the track with rap inputs by Raftaar. The video is choreographed by Remo D’Souza. “Tum Bin 2” is set to release on November 18. (IANS)

2017 Ram 1500 Earns Triple Crown: Wins Canadian Truck King Challenge of Ward’s automotive “10 Best Engines”. This time, the HEMIpowered 1500 overcame a trio of all-new or refreshed light-duty half-ton rivals. Further, the heavy-duty Ram 2500 also earned the number-one spot in the 3/4-ton category of the Canadian Truck King Challenge. Powered by the 6.7-litre Cummins Turbo Die-

Windsor, Ontario For the third time in a row, the Ram 1500 has been crowned the overall winner of the Canadian Truck King Challenge. Now in its 10th year, the Canadian Truck King Challenge is a rigorous, multi-day, thirdparty event that sees pickup trucks and commercial vehicles tested head-to-head in an apples-to-apples series of exercises. From a base in Kawartha Lakes, Ontario, and a group of seven expert judges from across Canada - with

over 200 years of combined truck testing experience - put all of the entrants through intensive, real-world evaluations over almost 4,000 km, with a focus on capability, fuel consumption and features. Testing included up to 1,814 kg (4,000 lbs.) of payload hauling, 6,803 kg (15,000 lbs.) of towing and assessing off-road capability. The 2017 Ram 1500 earned the ½-ton and overall Canadian Truck King Challenge titles by out-scoring the 10 other entered

pickups - from midsize to one-ton full-size - and including new and refreshed competitors. Claiming the crown again marks a threetime Truck King win for Ram 1500. In the two previous competitions, Ram 1500s powered by the segment-exclusive 3.0-litre EcoDiesel V-6 engine were entered. For 2017, Ram Truck Canada was asked to enter its volume model: a Ram 1500 Crew Cab Sport 4x4, powered by the 5.7-litre HEMI® V-8, a six-time winner

sel engine, it is already part of Canada’s bestselling line of diesel pickups and won the segment over an allnew competitor. “Seeing Ram 1500 take the overall crown at the Canadian Truck King Challenge for a record third time is an incredible endorsement of its breath of capability and classexclusive features,”

said Reid Bigland, President and CEO, FCA Canada. “The pickup truck segments are incredibly competitive. Truck King’s realworld, seven-person evaluation shows Canadians the best of the breed and we’re honoured that Ram 1500 is again on top, with Ram 2500 winning its category strongly as well.”

At the rear, the new tail lamps are better designed for a cleaner looks and chrome trim finished the rear hatchback and the roof now sports a new body-colour shark fin antenna. Both the front and rear fascias gain flush-mounted sonar sensors. The cabin also gains some changes too and only improve the already impressive looking interior with an Infiniti “graphite weave” design trim and gorgeous as standard quilted design leather seats, maple accents and aluminum and satin trim. New revisions to the interior include contrasting stitching accents to new upper instrument panel and door panels and a redesigned tri-zone automatic temperature control system. Overall, there is still a nice, very upmarket look to the interior, emphasized with such equipment and feature packed Deluxe Touring Package or Technology Package. It also has an impressive slew of asstandard safety features and options such as Infiniti’s blind spot monitoring, pre-collision avoidance braking, lane keeping assists, and rear cross traffic alert. The QX60 is still powered by Infiniti’s strong, bulletproof 265-horsepower, 3.5-litre DOHC V6 (248 poundfeet of torque). Of not is also a Hybrid version of the QX60 featuring a supercharged 2.5L four-cylinder and an electric motor powered by a compact lithium-ion battery pack (250 net system horsepower). Infiniti’s “intel-

ligent” all-wheel drive is standard, via CVT with Infiniti’s e “D-Step shift logic” technology. Engineering updates also include new shock absorber and springs with independent-strut front and multi-link rear suspension. The steering and handling is also updated with new P235/65TR18 all-season tires and a revised vehicle-speed-sensitive power steering system. Performance is also improved thanks to Infiniti’s four drive mode selector (DMS) that offers Standard, Sport, Eco and Snow modes — that allow for semi-customized throttle response and transmissions shifts for different road conditions and driving style preferences. On the road, the QX60 offers almost sublime sort car handling and performance thanks to its power full engine and fast-acting transmission. With its roomy, luxurious interior and feature packed technology it certainly one the more exciting to drive mid-sized premium CUV’s on the market. Highly recommended. 2016 Infiniti QX60 CUV Priced from $47,890

MOVIE REVIEW

Indo-Canadian Voice World | Saturday, Nov 12, 2016

Unhinged! Smart cinephiles know just how good South Korean movies can be. Bound to make quite an impression on local Cineplex Odeon screens is The Handmaiden. Totally original this romantic thriller from Mongrel Media is decidedly different decadent fun. Mixed up identities, illicit subterfuge , extraordinary schemers and Lucius cinematography come full circle in a story essentially about some local yokels out to get ahead. An elaborate scheme is hatched by a slick and sick smooth as silk Korean gangster that involves one of his hand-picked operatives going undercover to infiltrate the home of a Wealthy

Japanese bookworm of a recluse. Her assignment is to befriend the rich man’s niece and prime her for a possible marriage to the cad, oops I mean The Count. You can count on lots of mild

E`A sMs`r nUM c`nx vMfIey

erotica and new love alliances forming as the quest for sex and money motivate the members of this motley crew whose hope is to plunder the lives and lifestyle of this odd and bizarre powerful figure. Superb acting and some highly charged woman to woman boudoir scenes set the stage for

Some great twists and turns in this seductive charmer that will keep you guessing throughout as to how it will all turn out. Even some mild,torture rears its ugly head as does some salty

dialogue among the English subtitles. Go ahead, get a little hot and

bothered as The Handmaiden is a smart sophisticated sexy thriller that will keep you thoroughly engaged throughout its 141 minute run. The Handmaiden (PG) ****

Read the spec sheet and take a look at one at your local Mitsubishi dealer’s showroom and you will be pleasantly surprised! Mirage G4 sedan will have two price lines, ES and SEL – both featuring the 1.2-litre DOHC 3-cylinder MIVEC engine producing 78 horsepower, and transmission via a five-speed manual or an optional CVT automatic. with a starting MSRP of $14,398 and, for the fully loaded model, $18,198. For 2017, there a few improvements: Both Mirage models also receive an upgraded gauge cluster, steering wheel, and interior fabrics, there is the addition of a roller-type camshaft, to improve the Mirage engine output to 78 horsepower and 74 lb-ft torque and the brakes are improved, You can get Permanent Need more than 2 You can Study in Ask us how to with bigger and uprated discs.
