India rejects Pak denial on incursion Tata Housing Co says won’t go ahead with project till SC decides R SEDHURAMAN LEGAL CORRESPONDENT NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Tata Housing Development Company today agreed in the Supreme Court not to go ahead with its high-rise buildings proj- ect near Chandigarh’s Sukhna Lake till further orders as the SC sought its response within eight weeks to two petitions against the proposed construc- tion of 1,794 residential flats. A Bench comprising Jus- tices RM Lodha and Shiva Kirti Singh also issued notice to Punjab, Haryana, Chandi- garh and the Centre asking them to give their views on the petitions within eight weeks. The company’s senior coun- sel Abhishek Singhvi assured the Bench that his client would “maintain status quo” which the SC recorded in its order. Justice SS Sodhi (retired) and 16 others, who had filed one of the petitions, agreed to replace their names with Sarin Memorial Legal Aid Founda- tion (through Justice Sodhi) as the petitioner following tech- nical objections raised by the company as well as the Bench. The second petition has been filed by advocate Alok Jagga, a resident of Chandigarh who had approached the Punjab and Haryana High Court with a PILon the issue. The petitioners have chal- lenged the HC’s August 21, 2013 order, giving the green signal for the Tata project sub- ject to the company getting all necessary clearances from the authorities concerned. Arguing for the petitioners, senior counsel PS Patwalia, Aryaman Sundaram and Ran- jit Kumar contended that allowing the project would destroy Chandigarh and the fragile ecology of the region, comprising the Sukhna Lake, Shivalik Range and Wildlife Sanctuary. During the arguments, the Bench acknowledged that the matter “is extremely signifi- cant” as Chandigarh was one of the few planned cities in the country. Rejecting Singhvi’s plea for dismissing the peti- tions, the Bench said “these are matters which should not be thrown out on technical grounds. The situation may become irretrievable if the con- structions are permitted and ultimately it is found that they suffer from some illegalities.” After ascertaining from the litigants that construction had not begun yet, the Bench remarked: “Even a brick should not be laid.” Singhvi said the company was not in a position to start work as it was still awaiting clearances from the Union Forests and Environment Ministry and the wildlife authorities. In fact, the Bench dictated an order directing the company to maintain status quo, but Singhvi got it Continued on page 11 TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Determined to dislodge a band of armed intruders in J&K’s Keran sector — pro- longed operations against which entered the 14th day — India on Monday rejected Pakistan’s denial issued by its High Commissioner Salman Bashir yesterday that any such intrusion had taken place from across the border. New Delhi has made it clear that its armed forces are deter- mined to maintain the sanctity of the Line of Control in the face of one of the biggest intrusions in recent years. Ministry of External Affairs spokesman Syed Akbaruddin said New Delhi had repeatedly emphasised that maintaining the LoC sanctity was of pri- mary importance. “Our armed forces are currently undertak- ing appropriate and necessary measures...we have full confi- dence in their abilities to address challenges posed to them. We will await the out- come of their efforts,” he said. New Delhi is upset with Bashir’s statement made in Hyderabad, describing as “baseless” incursions into India from the Pakistani territory. New Delhi’s sharp response came on a day when security forces busted a militant hideout on the out- skirts of Baramulla district in J&K and recovered a huge cache of arms and ammuni- tion. Also on Monday, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh met the Chiefs of the three Services at his residence and is believed to have discussed, among others issues, the operation to flush out mili- tants in the Keran sector. Sources though described the meeting as a routine. Asked when the Director Generals Military Operations (DGMOs) from the two sides would meet to resolve the issue, the MEA spokesman pointed out that the two officials usually talk to each other on the phone on Tuesdays. “The issue of when they will meet depends on their talks,” he said. The spokesman referred to talks between the Prime Ministers of the countries recently on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly over ways to reduce tension along the LoC. New Delhi has repeatedly emphasised that maintaining the LoC sanctity was of pri- mary importance. This was re-emphasised when the two PMs had met. MAJID JAHANGIR/TNS SRINAGAR, OCTOBER 7 Nearly 100 militants are believed to be fighting the Army in north Kashmir’s Keran sector where they have made fresh advances after two weeks of fierce gunfights. Top sources say this has added a dangerous dynamics to the fighting, which is one of the longest battle in the region since the 1999 Kargil war. “The only option now is to use Air and ground force together to gain the lost ground,” said a top source. Earlier it was believed that there were 30-40 mili- tants. The sources now maintain that nearly 100 militants backed by Pak- istani special forces are believed to be fighting the Army inside Indian territo- ry at multiple points in the five-km stretch along the Line of Control in the sec- tor. Sources said the fierce gunfight is taking place at four to five points where the militants are giving stiff resistance to the Army. “The gunfight which was confined between the fence and the LoC is now taking place well within our terri- tory. The way they are fighting shows that the supply line of militants is intact and they are backed by the Pakistani special forces,” he added. The sources, however, said that militants had, in early September, occupied the huts in Shalabhato, a village near the LoC which was abandoned by the resi- dents in early 1990s.

Punjab mulls using panchayat land for solar energy units DEVINDER PAL/TNS CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 The Punjab Government proposes to amend the Vil- lage Common Lands (Regu- lation) Act, 1961, to allow it the right over panchayat land (often referred to as “sham- lat” land) in the state. Sources said there was a proposal to give panchayat land to private companies for setting up non-conven- tional energy (solar) units. Officials of the Rural Devel- opment and Panchayats Department have held meet- ings with Advocate General (AG) Ashok Aggarwal on the issue of bringing amendments to the Act. The AG has report- edly asked them to consult the Legal Remembrancer (LR). Though the move has the potential of giving a boost to the non-conventional energy efforts of the state government, it would deprive panchayats of their main source of income. Panchayats earn revenue by giving common land on lease. Approximately 1.55 lakh acres of land is owned by panchayats in the state. It is no secret that in the past, political leaders and other influential people have managed to usurp village com- mon land for personal gains. Under the Act, the owner- ship of village common land rests with the respective pan- chayat, which can use it in any manner it wants. Any indi- vidual panchayat can also give its land to the govern- ment for use by passing a res- olution to that effect. Panchayats can give com- mon land on lease for a max- imum period of 33 years. The government cannot interfere in the use of common land of any village unless the respec- tive panchayat has passed a resolution to that effect. The panchayat of nearby Manauli village recently gave some land on lease for 33 years, but the Punjab and Haryana High Court stayed the lease. SAD, Congress men expose each other’s ‘murky’ land deals RUCHIKA M KHANNA & SANJEEV SINGH BARIANA/TNS CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 Land in Punjab, especially surrounding Chandigarh, is a veritable gold mine. Little wonder that politi- cians — across the political spectrum and having enough cash reserves — have for long been involved in realty business. It now appears that many of the land deals by these politicians have not been above board. From undervaluation of land to get- ting it registered as agricul- tural or barren land, so as to evade paying higher stamp duty, these politician “real- tors” are seemingly involved in several murky land deals. The exposé on these land deals was brought out by Congress spokesperson Sukh- pal Singh Khaira. Though his target in the exposé was the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) treasurer and chief parliamentary secretary NK Sharma, Khaira had per- haps not realised that the realpolitik would also lead to many skeletons tumbling out of the Congress’ cupboard. Minutes after Khaira alleged that Sharma had got 11 acres registered as agricultural land - - though around 650 flats had been constructed on it, Continued on page 11 Today’s issue consists of 28 pages, including six-page Chandigarh Tribune and four-page Life+Style.

This resolution was adopted by a voice vote in the Leg- islative Assembly after the concluding speech by the Chief Minister Omar Abdul- lah on the discussion over VK Singh’s remarks that appeared Continued on page 11 J&K House adopts resolution on VK Singh’s remarks KULWINDER SANDHU/TNS MOGA, OCTOBER 7 Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal, who holds the portfolio of the Home Department, seems to have no faith in the commandos already serving in the state police. Currently protected jointly by the commandos of Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) and the state police under Z-plus security cover, he has now decided to constitute a Special Protection Unit (SPU) in the Punjab Police. The SPU will be on the lines of the Special Protection Group (SPG) that protects the President, Prime Minister, members of the Gandhi fam- ily and former Prime Minis- ters. Documents procured by The Tribune reveal that com- mandos of the SPU would be recruited from the officers and jawans of the central police forces and the state police on various ranks through deputa- tion, transfer and direct recruitment. But according to the con- ditions laid down in the rules framed by the state Home Ministry, only officers and jawans below the age of 40 years (two-year relaxation for technical and training staff), who have served for at least five years in the SPG, would be considered for this new assignment. Since the inception of the SPG in 1985 after the assas- sination of late PM Indira Gandhi, no officer or police- men (except IPS officers) from the Punjab Police got a chance to serve in the SPG. Therefore going by the pres- ent conditions, the chances of those serving in the state police for this elite job assign- ment seem to be bleak. A senior functionary in the office of the Deputy CM on the condition of anonymity said that a three-member committee of senior IPS officers of the state has been constituted for the recruitment process. The committee has started the exercise of alluring SPG officials by asking them to resign from their present assignments and to join the SPU by offering them lucra- tive salary and perks. It was learnt that about 200 to 250 officers on various ranks and jawans would be recruited in the SPU, which would be broadly divided into four categories — operations, training, intelligence and administration. The operations component will have a communications wing, a technical wing and a transport wing while the train- ing component will deal with the continuous process of training of commandos. The intelligence component will make threat assessments, internal intelligence and verification of character and antecedents of the visitors and the administration wing will look after the HR work, procurement and other offi- cial matters. MANAS DASGUPTA AHMEDABAD, OCTOBER 7 The Surat police today issued a “l ookout ” notice against Narayan Sai, the son of the self-styled “godman” Asaram Bapu, accused of rape. Surat Police Commis- sioner Rakesh Asthana said the notice had been sent to all airports to ensure Sai did not flee the country. Notices had also been issued to the police to trace Asaram’s wife Laxmi and daughter Bharati, the two co-accused of allegedly abetting the crime.

The power generation at major units in Vijayawada, Kadapa and Srisailam came to a virtual standstill following strike by over 50,000 employ- ees in the Seemandhra region. Only 2,990 MWof thermal power was produced as against the installed capacity of 6,090 MWon Sunday. Power from the hydel gen- eration stood at 1,694 MW against the installed capacity of 3,937 MW. Several gas- based power plants are also not functioning due to gas shortage problems. The generation loss crossed a whopping 4,350 MWsince last night, plunging vast swathes of Seemandhra into darkness. From today, an addi- tional 280 MWwould not be generated as a fallout of the strike, official sources said. Many trains were either par- tially cancelled or resched- uled due to the ongoing strike. �Congress counters Naidu, Jagan P2 We are confident of achieving an amicable solution that gives safeguards to people of all regions in the state. —Sushilkumar Shinde, Home Minister “ “ TELANGANA TUSSLE TELANGANA TUSSLE ADITI TANDON/TNS NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Four Central ministers from the Seemandhra region for- mally quit from the ministry at a meeting with Prime Min- ister Manmohan Singh whom they pressed for the accept- ance of their resignations.

HRD Minister MM Pallam Raju, Tourism Minister K Chi- ranjeevi, Textiles Minister KS Rao, MoS Industry D Puran- deshwari, MoS Railways Kotla Jaysuryaprakash Reddy and MoS IT Killi Krupa Rani met the PM to persuade him to accept their resignations in protest of the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh. Four of these - Pallam Raju, Chiranjeevi, Purandeshwari and Reddy - later said they had re-tendered their resignations to the PM to “clear the air around their intentions and gather the moral authority to return to Hyderabad and face agitators”.

Justice Sahai today first vis- ited Kawaal and Malikpura vil- lages where the triple murder on August 27 instigated a chain of events which led to around 62 deaths and 50,000 displaced persons in Muzaffarnagar and surrounding districts. He assured the families of the deceased of justice and bringing the guilty to book in an impartial manner. Justice Sahai has appealed to citizens to come forward to share any relevant infor- mation that they may have at the commission’s camp office at the Inspection Bun- galow of Kukda Mandi in Muzaffarnagar. He said that the probe would focus on four points: what caused the riots, the action taken by the government offi- cials at that time, identifica- tion of those responsible for it and measures to prevent such riots in the future. Meanwhile, the fate of the two BJP MLAs -- Sangeet Singh Som and Suresh Rana, jailed under the NSAfor their alleged involvement in inciting the riots will be decided on September 10 when the Uttar Pradesh State Advisory Board takes up the two cases. Muzaffarnagar district magistrate Kaushal Raj Shar- ma and SSP HN Singh will appear before the board in Lucknow on September 10 for the hearing. The two accused Som and Rana have been brought to Muzaffarnagar jail on the CJM court’s orders. Congress counters Naidu, Jagan on Andhra division TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 The Congress today adopted a wait-and-watch approach on the tension building over the issue of Telangana appealing to the people of the state to maintain calm and rebutting the leaders of TDP and YSR Congress on the issue of Andhra’s division to form Telangana. Top party leaders privately did not rule out the imposi- tion of President’s rule in the state if the law and order sit- uation went totally out of hand. “There is no situation for President’s rule in Andhra today. But as the situation emerges we will see,” party spokesperson Bhakta Cha- ran Das said. Accusing TDP and YSR Congress of indulging in cheap politicking on the issue, Das said the leaders of both parties — Chan- drababu Naidu and Jagan Mohan Reddy — had earli- er supported the demand for Telangana. “The decision was taken after widest possible consul- tations and after taking the opinion of people of the state and the country on board. There should be no politics now. Why did these people not revolt when the consulta- tions were on,” asked Das. He recalled a December 28, 2012 letter which Naidu wrote to Home Min- ister Sushilkumar Shinde where he referred to a party politburo decision that read, “In deference to the sentiments of people of the region, TDP supports the demand for separate state- hood for Telangana.” Naidu at that time said, “Telangana is a historic necessity and the TDP has done the right thing by sup- porting it.” The Congress spokesper- son also quoted Naidu as having said earlier that the TDP would do everything required — legally, consti- tutionally and politically — to create Telangana. “Today they have changed their stand to suit their political ends,” Das slammed the TDP chief who is now fasting against the same Telangana. The Congress also called the bluff of YSR Congress leader Jaganmohan Reddy who is on fast unto death against the division of Andhra reminding him of June 25, 2013 when the YSR Congress, at the party’s second plenary at Idupulapaya, passed a reso- lution supporting Telangana. The Congress also gave a timeline of consultations on the issue saying widest pos- sible dialogue was held. Govt’s no to cooling-off period for babus taking poll plunge NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 A recommendation of the Election Commission (EC) for a "cooling-off period" to bar top bureaucrats from joining politics or contesting elections immediately on exit from service has been rejected by the government which feels such a step will not be in harmony with the constitutional provisions. The government's decision is based on the opinion of Attorney General Goolam E Vahanvati and the Ministry of Law and Justice. The EC, early last year, had written to the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) and Law Ministry after it got concerned over a number of "senior civil ser- vants" jumping into the elec- toral fray and hence asked the government to bring in a "cooling-off period" clause between leaving the govern- ment job and joining a polit- ical party by these officials. It had then suggested amendments to service rules of IAS, IPS and other class 'A' services officials to enable that protocol. The AG said "that any such restriction (against officials joining politics or contesting poll) whether by way of serv- ices rules or by way of an amendment of the election laws may not stand the test of valid classification under Article 14 of the Constitution of India". The legislative department of the ministry said this "would not be in harmony of the provisions of the Constitution". Based on these legal advices, the DoPT which is the nodal authority for regulat- ing services rules of All-India service officials, told the EC recently that its suggestions in that regard "may not be appro- priate and feasible".—PTI Usmani may have ‘left’ the country SHIV KUMAR/TNS MUMBAI, OCTOBER 7 Afzal Usmai, the alleged member of the Indian Mujahideen who escaped from a Mumbai court on September 20, may have left the country, say police authorities. A massive manhunt launched by the crime branch and the anti-terror squad of the Mumbai police has not yielded any results so far. Police sources feel Usmani may have escaped to Pakistan via Bangladesh or Nepal. He might have cultivated contacts while in prison and could have even set up sleeper cells comprising ex- convicts, they say. Usmani had been in jail since 2008. The escape of six suspect- ed activists of the banned Students Islamic Movement of India from a jail in Mad- hya Pradesh is also giving sleepless nights to security officials. Reports quoting intelligence agencies say the six may link up with Usmani out of country to carry out terror attacks. Officials have tightened security in Mumbai ahead of the festival season.

Mangoes from UP are sold in the US and Britain but what do our farmers get?” asked Gandhi. He was speaking at a pub- lic function after laying the foundation stone of a mega food park in the Jagdishpur area of Amethi today. The park is being developed by the Aditya Birla Group. It is expected to have 50 units and provide direct employment to around 2,500 people besides giving indirect opportunities to additional 25,000 people and benefiting 40,000 farmers of the region. Explaining the rationale behind setting up the park, Rahul said whatever was pro- duced in UPshould largely be processed in Amethi, which he saw the potential of being developed as an agricultural hub. “Farmers will feel they are getting better compensa- tion for their hard work,” Gandhi said. “UPis the largest producer of ‘mentha’. Guess what happens to it. It is exported in raw form for which the farmer gets a pittance. It is processed in foreign coun- tries and then comes back to us as finished products and we pay a hefty amount for it,” Gandhi pointed out. The situation could be reversed, he said. Acargo ter- minal could be set up at the Fursatganj airstrip in Rae Bareli from where mangoes and other processed food items could be directly sent abroad fetching maximum returns to the local farmers. Citing Bengaluru develop- ment as a science and R&D hub, the Amethi MP said the setting up of the HAL unit there around 60 years ago became a triggering factor. He hoped for the same to happen with Amethi. “A beginning was made by Rajivji who had had worked to provide good roads to the region,” he said. Industrialist Kumar Mangalam Birla termed Rahul as the symbol of expectations of the new generation and observed that the Congress vice-president spoke less about politics and more about development. Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Food Pro- cessing Charan Das Mahant was also present. The Shaktiman Mega Food Park spread over 72 acres is estimated to generate rev- enue of Rs 450 crore, which will significantly boost local employment and economy in the area.

Staff nurses working at the 24x7 health centres did not conduct deliveries and ANMs in dispensaries did not vaccinate the newborn or undertake post-natal checkup. District president of the NRHM Employees Union Amarjit Singh said if their demands were not met soon, they would hold rallies at all district headquarters on Thursday.

He said the NRHM employees, working on a contractual basis, would no longer toler- ate “exploitation.” Illegal mining: Govt to act tough TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 While assuming charge as Industries and Commerce Minister here today, Madan Mohan Mittal said illegal mining, if any, would be dealt with a heavy hand. He said as chairman of the District Planning, Ropar, he was the first to raise the issue and put tabs on illegal min- ing in the district. Mittal said the grievances of the industrial sector would be resolved on a priority. He said he would ensure industry friendly atmosphere in the state for its economic growth. Mittal alleged despite attempts of the Central Government to hamper Punjab's industrial devel- opment, the state was wit- nessing massive growth in this sector, which could be assessed by the recent visit of Tata group officials and interest shown by other big industrial houses. Mittal earlier held the port- folio of Health and Family Welfare. He was made Industries Minister after the state BJP reshuffled portfo- lios of its ministers on Sep- tember 24.

More than 1,500 colonisers and one lakh indi- viduals submitted their appli- cations till this evening in var- ious parts of the state and deposited Rs 125 crore as reg- ularisation fee. The govern- ment, however, was expecting to raise at least Rs 1,000 crore. At a meeting held today to review the policy, the state gov- ernment exempted all the plots and colonies developed before 1995 from regularisation. The meeting was presided over by Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal. It has been decided that the first registered sale deed of the plot would be the basis for charges. It has also been clari- fied that in case of colonies, the year of sale of 50 per cent area or 50 per cent units would be the basis for establishing the time of its setting up. After October 25, plot hold- ers and colonisers can still get their plots/colonies regularised by paying a compounding fee till November 5. Plot holders will have to pay a compound- ing fee of 20 per cent and colonisers 50 per cent. Sukhbir directed the officials concerned to accept forms both manually and online. He said all plot holders in the below poverty line (BPL) category could get their plots up to 100 sq yds regularised free of cost. In Moga, members of the District Bar Association held a protest against “hefty” fee being charged for regularising illegal colonies. The lawyers’ body urged the Punjab and Haryana High Court Chief Jus- tice to take suo moto cogni- sance of the “unjust” order of the state government. Colonisers have called the new collector rates "unfair" and said that these were not in con- sonance with rates at which they had purchased properties.

In all, 773 colonies had been identi- fied as illegal in the area. A heavy rush was wit- nessed at the Jalandhar Development Authority (JDA) and the local Munici- pal Corporation, the two des- ignated points for submit- ting applications under the policy for regularising unap- proved colonies. Corporation Senior Town Planner Trilok Singh said, “We have received around 13,000 applications. Among these, 52 are by colonisers.” There are 323 illegal colonies within the civic body’s limits. Chief Administrator (JDA) Jaski- ran Singh said, “Around 850 plot holders and build- ing owners and 25 colonis- ers have applied so far.” Around 450 colonies are approved in the areas falling under JDA’s jurisdiction. Aheavy rush was also wit- nessed in the neighbouring districts of Hoshiarpur, Kapurthlala and Nawanshahr in the Doaba region. NEERAJ BAGGA TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE AMRITSAR, OCTOBER 7 The authorities in four bor- der districts of Amritsar, Gurdaspur, Pathankot, and Tarn Taran collected more than Rs 14 crore as compo- sition fee. A total of 6,000 individu- als and 152 colonisers sub- mitted their applications in these four districts. Since the server of the Amritsar Development Authority (ADA) was down all through the day, the offi- cials accepted the applica- tions manually. There are 887 unapproved colonies in these four dis- tricts. Amaximum of 3,897 applications were received from Amritsar, which has 405 illegal localities. A heavy rush was wit- nessed at certain centres. An applicant, Kulwinder Singh Bhatia, who was in a queue at one such centre, said he faced much diffi- cultly in depositing the application owing to non- availability of forms and refusal of the centre to accept cash after 2 pm. Another applicant, Vikram Kumar, said the state gov- ernment gave limited time to the public to submit the applications. 13,000 applications received in Jalandhar Only 5 colonisers apply in Patiala TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE PATIALA, OCTOBER 7 The much-hyped drive of the Punjab Government to iden- tify and penalise illegal colonies in Patiala not depositing regularisation fee has drawn flak with only five colonisers turning up to deposit the fee today. Over 750 plot owners also applied to get their plots regularised. The Ludhiana Municipal Corporation managed to gen- erate a revenue of more than Rs 23 crore. There are around 9,000 illegal properties in and around the city. In Ropar, 1,156 applications, including 79 from colonisers, were received. In Sangrur, the regularisation policy evoked a poor response. Sources said there were 203 unauthorised colonies within the municipal limits and 143 outside the municipal limits in Sangrur district. However, promoters of only 56 colonies within the municipal limits and 12 outside have applied for regularisation. There are thousands of hous- es and plots in these unautho- rised colonies. But only 1,239 plot holders have applied. In Barnala, there are 73 ille- gal colonies within municipal limits . Promoters of only 11 colonies have applied for reg- ularisation by depositing Rs 3.25 lakh as composition fee. Besides, 1,000 plot holders have applied to the municipal council, Barnala. They have deposited Rs 1.5 crore fee.

The World Wildlife Federa- tion has put their number around 15 to 20, up from two to four when the dolphins were spotted for the first time in the river some time back. Com- pared to the Beas, their popu- lation is more than 1,100 in the Indus in Pakistan. Though the rise in popula- tion is a welcome sign, activ- ities like unchecked use of boats and fishing through nets could prove disastrous, say wildlife lovers. The recent boat capsize tragedy in Tarn Taran has brought into focus the unreg- ulated use of boats by vil- lagers. Sources say almost every household across the Beas owned a boat of their own. The federation has shared its concerns regarding the safety of the dolphins with the Punjab Wildlife authori- ties. It has demanded either a bio-diversity heritage site or a conservation reserve status to the 85-km stretch of the Beas to protect bio-diversity in that region. Such a move may also enable the state government to seek more funds for the pur- pose from the World Wildlife Federation and other bodies active in the field. Says Geetanjali, federation senior project officer who is working on a research proj- ect on dolphins and migrato- ry birds: “Apart from the Beas, dolphins are also found in the Ganges and the Brahmaputra.” Gurmeet Singh, former Chief Wildlife Warden and Punjab Wildlife Board ex- member, points out: “Boats generally do not pose any threat to dolphins as these are used to co-existence. But, the laying of fishing nets surely poses a threat.” He says there is a need to keep a check on human activity in the river. “Licences should be issued for plying boats. There should also be clear instruc- tions that no one will touch the dolphins,” says Gurmeet. Besides, the conservation- ists have stressed on the need to maintain the quality of water in the river. Assistant Registrar of Co-op Societies arrested for graft TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE FATEHGARH SAHIB, OCTOBER 7 A Vigilance Bureau team today caught red-handed an Assistant Registrar of Coop- erative Societies, Surjit Singh, while allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 10,000 from a former village society representative. Deputy Superintendent of Police (Vigilance, Patiala) KD Sharma, who led the operation, said the accused was nabbed in the presence of two witnesses. Sharma said the accused had demanded Rs 35,000 as bribe from Kulwinder Singh, the for- mer president of Harlalpur Cooperative Society, for hold- ing elections to the village soci- ety. The deal, however, was fixed at Rs 15,000. In his complaint, Kulwinder alleged that Rs that 5,000 was paid on October 3 while the rest of the amount was to be paid today. Kulwinder said elections to the society were due and a meeting was con- vened on September 13. How- ever, no official from the Assis- tant Registrar’s Office turned up for the meeting to hold the elections. He said when he took up the matter with the Assistant Registrar, the latter demanded the bribe. The Vigilance officer said the department had video- graphed the entire episode. He said a case had been registered and raids were being conduct- ed at the accused’s houses in Sirhind and Chandigarh. The Assistant Registrar, however, claimed he had passed orders for holding the elections on September 13. He said he had even deputed two inspectors, Surinderpal Singh and Baldev Singh, for the process. Ecologists fear for dolphins in Beas TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal today lashed out at the UPA government for its “failure” to revamp the existing fertiliser units in the country which led to a fall in the production and an outgo of Rs 79,743 crore subsidy. In a statement issued today, Sukhbir said instead of taking steps to increase production, the Congress- led UPAopted to decontrol the sector, thus putting a burden on poor farmers. “The Centre’s move to decontrol the fertiliser sec- tor led to a substantial hike in the prices of DAP and urea,” he said. Quoting a CAG report, Sukhbir said 475.29 lakh tonnes of fertilisers were imported in the past nine years and Rs 79,743 crore was given by way of sub- sidies. He said had the Centre assured supply of uninterrupted natural gas to the fertiliser industry, the subsidy could have been saved and utilised for the welfare of farmers.

Leading importer Iqbal Singh Bedi said they had stopped gypsum import but the trucks in queue on the other side could not be pre- vented from crossing over to India now. However, sources said, the traders were still mulling over their next move and the final call regarding stopping the imports would only be taken after October 15. Sources said the traders appeared divided on their stand against the storage tariff hike implemented at the ICP by the Land Port Authority of India. While some of them were firm on stopping imports, others wanted to continue while adopting a wait-and-watch approach, they said.

This puts to rest all specu- lation regarding a Congress- PPP alliance for the ensuing parliamentary elections. It seems the Congress has decided to take on the SAD- BJP alliance alone. Ahmed said his party would take up the issue of the aggra- vating law and order situation and the “witch-hunt” of Con- gress workers with the Union Home Ministry. He instructed Punjab Pradesh Congress Commit- tee (PPCC) chief Partap Singh Bajwa to prepare a list of “vendetta cases”. He alleged that the police was victimising Congress work- ers at the behest of SAD-BJP leaders. Ahmed said the Congress would announce the names of Lok Sabha can- didates in the state well in time. The list of PPCC office-bearers would also be announced soon. Ahmed said Congress Leg- islature Party (CLP) Leader Sunil Jakhar had yesterday submitted a report on the outburst by Rajasansi MLA Sukhbinder Singh Sarkaria against the PPCC chief. He said appropriate action would be taken in consulta- tion with the party high com- mand. Ahmed said the party had taken cognisance of reports on former Law Min- ister Ashwani Kumar invit- ing Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal to inaugurate an old-age home at Jeevan- wal in Gurdaspur, ignoring his own party MLAs and the PPCC chief. “I spoke to him and he has clarified things” Ahmed said, adding that the party would formulate a policy on invit- ing leaders and workers to various functions and fora so that such unsavoury inci- dents did not recur. Cong gen secy Ahmed rules out pre-poll pact Groupism resurfaces Factionalism between Congress groups led by former Congress minister Hans Raj Josan and Youth Congress leader Jagdeep Kamboj alias Goldy came to the fore at Jalalabad. Shakeel Ahmed and Partap Singh Bajwa’s cavalcade was virtually gheraoed by Goldy’s supporters near the Jalalabad bus stand. He pleaded that the lead- ers had tea at his resi- dence. As Ahmed and Bajwa turned down the request, 200 Youth Con- gress workers gheraoed their car. The leaders had no choice but to relent.

Three of the deceased have been iden- tified as Kulwinder Kaur, her daughter Pawandeep Kaur (6), and Narinder Kaur. Kulwinder’s husband Gurjit Singh, along with their two other children, was trailing the bus on his motorcycle. More than 10 passengers sustained injuries. They have been hospitalised. Among the injured is Harcharan Singh, deceased Narinder Kaur’s husband. They were on their way to Amritsar to pay obei- sance at the Golden Temple. “We wanted to thank the Almighty as our dream to move abroad had finally come true.

Leader of the Opposition Sunil Jakhar, Congress MLAs Amarinder Singh Raja Warring, Karan Kaur Brar, Ranbir Singh Nabha, Rana Gurmit Singh Sodhi and Parminder Singh Pinki were present on the occasion. Partap Singh Bajwa, PPCC chief, said the Congress would place the issue of fail- ure of the Punjab Govern- ment to provide jobs to the youth, as promised in its poll manifesto, before the Punjab and Haryana High Court for making “false promises.” He alleged that Chief Min- ister Parkash Singh Badal had been purchasing votes since 1957.

For installing jammers, baggage x-ray scanners, metal detec- tors and other devices in jails, the state government has sought a special package of Rs 832 crore from the Centre. As a petition filed in pub- lic interest on the issue came up for resumed hearing before the Punjab and Haryana High Court, the state informed the Bench that a formal proposal had been sent to the Centre. A High Court Bench had taken suo motu cognizance of the problem of security in Punjab jails after the death of an inmate in Kapurthala in a group clash inside the jail premises. — TNS State seeks Centre’s help to strengthen jails Chandigarh: Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal on Monday asked the PPCC leadership to stop openly urg- ing leading national and inter- national business and indus- trial houses not to invest in Punjab. “I am shocked to see Congress leaders getting panicky on seeing the eco- nomic resurgence of Punjab. The Congress is crestfallen that even the RBI has now rated Punjab as one of the three best investment desti- nations in the country. So they have launched a mas- sive propaganda campaign to dissuade investors from coming to Punjab,” said the Chief Minister in a statement. He said sensing the econom- ic tide turning in favour of Punjab with big houses like the Tatas showing a keen interest in investing in the state, the Congress leader- ship “has gone nervous and sleepless.” — TNS CM: Cong panicky The ill-fated bus 6 Yesterday’s solution Across: 1 Fidelity, 5 Stun, 9 Lofty, 10 Driving, 11 Instrumental, 13 Latent, 14 Solemn, 17 Tip the scales, 20 Panache, 21 Abate, 22 Sulk, 23 Idolatry.

H A R D RAVI KRISHNAN KHAJURIA/TNS JAMMU, OCTOBER 7 Investigations have revealed that the three heavily armed Pakistani terrorists, who killed 10 persons in the twin terror attacks in Samba and Kathua on September 26, had plans to hold senior Army officers of the unit hostage. “The investigations and recoveries so far indicate that the terrorists had plans to hold hostage any senior Army officer they could have laid their hands on,” said a top police source privy to the investigations. He said there was ample proof to suggest that the trio wanted to engage the Army over a longer dura- tion of time. “Besides arms and ammunition, we have recovered one metal hand- cuff, food packets, includ- ing two tins of multi-vita- mins having 1.6 kilo calo- ries each, almonds, cashews and raisins, from the site of the encounter inside the Army camp,” he said. “This suggests that they had plans to hold at least one senior officer hostage and then prolong the encounter for two or three days, negotiate and at the same time hog wide media attention,” said the source. The source also said by 7.15 am on that fateful day the terrorists had stormed the Army camp in Samba, much before the Hiranagar police station could gather its wits and call the police control room in Kathua. “The police control room in Kathua was informed about the incident at 7.15 am, by then the ultras, who had entered 10 km inside the jurisdiction of Samba district, had already stormed the Army camp,” he said. “Though, they killed Lt Col Bikramjeet Singh and three other soldiers inside the Army camp, they prob- ably didn’t get enough time to execute their plan,” the source revealed. He, however, said it was “intriguing” that at 5.30 am the ultras had hijacked an auto-rickshaw of Roshan Lal at gun point and travelled 20 km unhindered from Haria Chak to Hiranagar. “It is quite surprising that they crossed the Rajbagh police station, two police posts, including the one at Marheen, two police nakas and several other Army and police installations before attacking the Hiranagar police station on the high- way,” he said. M AAMIR KHAN/TNS SRINAGAR, OCTOBER 7 Even as the government intends to put the historic Mughal Road on the tourist map in a major way, 10 out of 16 caravan sarais locat- ed on the road are either abandoned or in a dilapi- dated condition. Other caravan sarais, which were used as resting places by travellers during the Mughal period, have either turned into schools or are occupied by securi- ty forces. Eight sarais are in a dilap- idated condition while two are abandoned, the Tourism Ministry said today in a written reply to a query in the Legislative Council. While two sarais are functioning as schools, two others are occupied by the Army and another by police personnel. A sarai in Rajouri district has been occupied by locals, the government said. The government also admitted that these sarais are being occasionally used by the Gujjar and Bakerw- al communities for shelter and grazing purposes. Regarding their conserva- tion, the Tourism Ministry said: “We plan to take care of these sarais which are of great heritage value. Once the Mughal Road is for- mally opened, we will take measures to stop illegal occupation of these struc- tures. Authorities con- cerned would be given nec- essary instructions in this regard.” The Mughal Road connects Rajouri in Jammu region to south Kashmir. While light vehicles are already plying on it, the state government is yet to officially throw it open. The government is hope- ful that the link will boost trade between the two regions. The government said the sarais located in the Pir Pan- jal area remain inaccessible due to hostile weather conditions and lack of prop- er connectivity. Terrorists had plans to hold senior Army officers hostage TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE SRINAGAR, OCTOBER 7 Noisy scenes were witnessed in the state Assembly today as members of the BJP and National Panthers Party staged a walkout over a report on creation of new administrative units in Jammu and Kashmir. When the House began its business today, the members of the two parties raised the issue of creation of new administrative units in the state. Unmoved by repeated warnings by Speaker Mubarak Gul, the agitating members walked into the Well of the House. Unruly scenes were created by the members even as other mem- bers continued to impress upon the Speaker to contin- ue the proceedings of the Question Hour. The angry legislators later staged a walkout from the House, saying the govern- ment had asked the public to file objections, without mak- ing the report public. No business was done for near- ly 20 minutes. The House resumed business only after the angry legislators staged a walkout. Some of the members alleged that the distribution of a number of villages had been done on the basis of political affiliations, which was not a judicious arrange- ment of the creation of the new units. The Cabinet Sub-Commit- tee, headed by Deputy Chief Minister Tara Chand, had on July 31 invited objec- tions in this regard from the public, to be submitted with- in 15 days. It was constitut- ed earlier this year following a report submitted by the Ganai Committee on the creation of new administra- tive units. TRIBUNE NEW SERVICE SRINAGAR, OCTOBER 7 Governor NN Vohra today underscored the need for mak- ing operational the inland water transport system in the Kashmir valley in a time- bound manner. The Governor said the facility would be an added attraction for tourists, generate employment avenues and ease traffic congestion. Vohra said this after Divi- sional Commissioner, Kash- mir, Shailendra Kumar made a presentation on the develop- ment of inland water tourism and historical sites in Kashmir during a meeting at Raj Bhawan here. Last month, a delegation led by Sheikh Imran had met the Governor and informed him about the initiatives taken by the government in 1996-97 to develop an inland navigation system. Thereafter, Raj Bhawan had asked the Divi- sional Commissioner to review all past decisions and brief the Governor about the way forward. After discussions with the officials at the meeting, the Governor asked the Division- al Commissioner to put in place an inland water trans- port system at identified sec- tors of the Jhelum which could be of interest to tourists. As such the operational details should be finalised by the Tourism Department and effectively advertised, he said. The Governor asked the Divi- sional Commissioner to coor- dinate between the Lakes and Waterways Development Authority, Tourism and Irri- gation Departments and the police to finalise an action plan for the phased develop- ment of a number of circuits to be covered by water navi- gation system. The Governor observed that Srinagar city and other areas of the Valley had a large number of heritage and historical sites and if an inland water transport system became operational, an attractive element could be added to the packages to be offered to the tourists. He advised the Kashmir Divi- sional Commissioner to ensure that whatever was viable should be done without any delay to make a definitive beginning in this direction. The Governor suggested to Farooq Ahmad Shah, Deputy Commissioner, Srinagar, and Talat Parvez, Director, Tourism, Kashmir, to take all required measures to publicise the motor-boating facility, which was available on the Jhelum and also involve the hotel associations in publicis- ing the facility.

A Bench comprising Chief Justice P Sathasivam and Justice Ranjan Gogoi made the clarification while refusing to hear sen- ior counsel Bhim Singh on the compensation policy and posting the PIL for December 3 for detailed arguments. While the pleas relating to Kishtwar violence were pending in the Supreme Court, “you can’t seek fur- ther relief” on other aspects such as the com- pensation policy, the Bench said. “Right or wrong, the state government has taken a Constitutional position” to justify its policy. “The state may have several other problems,” the Bench remarked.

MLAGM Saroori raised the issue in the Leg- islative Assembly today and demanded that decisions taken at the DDB meetings be implemented. — TNS TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE SRINAGAR, OCTOBER 7 General Officer Comanding- in-Chief of the Northern Com- mand Lt Gen Sanjiv Chachra today briefed Governor NN Vohra on internal and external security management and on incidents of large-scale infil- tration from across the Line of Control (LoC) in the Keran sector of Kupwara district. General Officer Command- ing of 15 Corps Lt Gen Gur- mit Singh was present at the meeting at Raj Bhawan. The Governor and the Northern Army Commander discussed issues relating to internal and external security management, an official spokesman said. “Lt General Chachra partic- ularly briefed the Governor about several incidents of large-scale infiltration from across the LoC in the Keran sector,” the spokesman said. The meeting took place in the backdrop of one of the longest gun battles in the region since the 1999 Kargil war. The fighting between a large number of militants and the Army is on at multiple points along the LoC in the Keran sector of frontier Kupwara district. The counter-infiltration operation was launched on September 24. Lt Gen Chachra, Vohra discuss security scenario Hideout busted in Valley, arms seized TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE SRINAGAR, OCTOBER 7 The Army and the police today busted a hideout in north Kashmir’s Baramulla district. The hideout was located in a forest area near Venkari village on the outskirts of Baramulla town, 50 km from here. “On a tip off from Intelli- gence agencies, a 48-hour- long operation was launched by troops of 46 Rashtriya Rifles and Spe- cial Operations Group of the police in the forests. After a search, a hideout was found and busted,” a defence spokesman said in Srinagar. The recovery included an AK-56 rifle, its four maga- zines, two rocket-propelled grenades, a disposable rocket launcher, a pistol and some ammunition. “Amap of Pakistan-occu- pied Kashmir, a letter pad of the Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen, khaki dresses and some damaged Indian currency were seized from the hide- out,” the spokesman said. Sources said the recovery of police uniform hinted that the militants were planning to carry out an attack.

Sharma called on Swaraj’s resi- dence at New Delhi today. A handout issued by the BJP from Jammu said Swaraj received a detailed report on Kishtwar riots. She has said the Central leadership of the party fully supported its Kishtwar unit and would go to any extent to ensure the safety of the minority community there. She said the party leader- ship was keeping a close follow-up of the events before and after the August 9 violence and the partisan role being played by the administration. Swaraj said the party had taken up the issue of com- pensation to traders with the Union Government and also demanded transfer of police and civil adminis- tration officers who did not enjoy the confidence of the minority community. She said the Central leadership of the BJP endorsed the Kishtwar BJP unit’s demand of strengthening the village defence com- mittees and appealed to the J&K Government to make all possible arrange- ments to avoid the possi- bility of migration of the minority community from Kishtwar. As per the handout, Sunil Sharma provided details of the losses suffered and informed Swaraj that around 109 shops and busi- ness establishments had been destroyed during the August 9 violence and the losses suffered by traders was more than Rs 16 crore. He thanked Swaraj for her intervention, which had boosted the morale of the minority community in Kishtwar, and said he would continue to update her on the latest develop- ment there.

PRDH/13742 Two dead rats found in mid-day meal SUMEDHA SHARMA TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE GURGAON, OCTOBER 7 Two dead rats were found in the mid-day meal at a government school in Hedli Lal village of Sohna subdivision. Schoolteachers said when they opened the food con- tainers, they found two dead rats in them. The food is supplied by ISCON, a local firm. On hearing about the inci- dent, residents of the vil- lage thronged the school fearing well-being of their children. The school principal said the transport vehicle of the mid-day meal had come early today and the driver had left in haste even before they could check the containers. Taking strong note of the incident, the village pan- chayat decided to boycott the meal. “Several times we have informed officials the Edu- cation Department to stop sending food as quality of the food was not good. Our children will not eat it till things take a better turn,” said a panchayat member. Blaming the school for callousness, an official of ISCON, said the food was fine till it reached the school and it was only there that rats fell in it. “We get signature of the school authorities when they receive the meal to confirm its condition and timely delivery. In this case, they have signed expressing satisfaction, so it’s their fault. There is no proper storage or dining space in the school,” said the official. HC orders vigilance probe into illegal mining SAURABH MALIK TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 The Punjab and Haryana High Court has ordered a vigilance probe into “min- ing mafia” operating in parts of Haryana. Issuing the directions, the Bench of Chief Justice San- jay Kishan Kaul and Justice Augustine Georga Masih made it clear that the matter was being handed over to the vigilance, and not the Central Bureau of Investiga- tion (CBI) as it was already over burdened. “Taking into consideration the nature of the matter and keeping in mind the burden already on the CBI, let the Vigilance branch of the State of Haryana further investi- gate into the matter,'' the Bench asserted. The directions came on an appeal filed by transporter Joginder against the State of Haryana and other respon- dents. He was seeking direc- tions to the respondents to allow his vehicles, transport- ing minor minerals from leased area in Uttar Pradesh, to enter the state. Directions were also sought to the respondents not to cause “hindrance in the transporta- tion of minor minerals''. His petition was initially disposed of by a Single Judge in April last year after holding that the respondents were very well within their rights to stop the vehicles carrying minerals or other consignments in an unautho- rised manner. Aggrieved by the order, he moved the High Court again. As the matter came up for hearing, the Division Bench observed: “We may notice that on May 2, counsel appearing for the appellant gave no objection if an FIR was regis- tered against the appellant as well as qua the allegations made by him against mining mafia, which may be re-inves- tigated by the CBI. “The court directed that the FIR be registered and the allegation and counter-alle- gation of illegal mining may be investigated by a Central agency.” Advocate General, Haryana, states that the mat- ter has been examined at the level of Additional Chief Secretary and thereafter by the Principal Secretary and the State is of the opinion that the state police and investigation apparatus is competent to handle the case but if this court decides to entrust the investigation of the case to the CBI, assis- tance of the state police would be assured. The Bench concluded: “Though, we have been informed that the challan has been filed in the court, if some other material is found the same be placed before the trial court.'' The case will now come up on January 16, 2014, for the Vigilance Department to pro- duce the result of investigation and file a compliance and sta- tus report before the court.

Photo: Satish Seth K V PRASAD/TNS NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Union Minister and senior Congress leader Selja is upset over the deteriorat- ing political atmosphere in the state and is of the view that the level of bitterness now prevalent in the high- er echelons was not wit- nessed in the past. Aday after being hit on the left shoulder by a stone while travelling from Kalka to Chandigarh on the Kalka-Sai Nagar Shiridi superfast express yesterday, the Union Minister is distressed over the turn of events, sources close to the leader told The Tribune. The incident took place when she boarded a general coach after flagging off the new train and sat next to a window when all of a sudden a stone hurtled towards her, hitting her on the shoulder. Selja refused to offer any com- ments on whether the incident could be a handiwork of a mis- creant, a pre-meditated attack or a freak accident. Prior to the incident, she was at a meeting organised by the Pradesh Congress Com- mittee where, according to reports, Congress general secretary Shakeel Ahmed had asked party members not to air their grievances in public. However, some members, who were not favoured by those controlling the organi- zation, were not given an opportunity to share their views even in closed-door meeting, sources said. On her part, Selja said it was surprising that state leaders were talking of ene- mies when in politics one only heard of rivals. “Atmos- phere is polluted. State lead- ers are talking of enemies in politics. How can you have enemies? We only heard of rivals,'' she said. Selja upset over political atmosphere in state TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 Taking cognizance of alle- gations levelled by a "whisteblower" in a recruitment rip-off in Haryana, the Punjab and Haryana High Court today issued notice to former Chief Parliamentary Sec- retary Ram Kishan Fouji. Notice has also been issued to the SPs of Yamunanagar and Bhiwani. The notice came after Anand Kumar of Yamu- nanagar alleged threat to his life and liberty from Fouji. In his petition, Kumar alleged he was being pressured to with- draw the complaint against Fouji. Describing himself as `whistleblower'' , Kumar claimed since he dared to unearth the job-for-cash scam in Haryana, he was receiving threats from unknown persons. Kumar alleged Fouji had demanded and accept- ed a bribe of Rs 5 lakh to offer the job of a JBT teacher to him. "The peti- tioner met Fouji who assured of help subject to the fact that he should be given Rs 5 lakh ", the peti- tion added. Kumar added he bor- rowed money from his rel- atives and family friends to pay the bribe for the recruitment, which took place in 2010. Two years later, he "out of guilt" decided to "expose" the recruitment scam. HC notice to ex-CPS Fouji in job scam GEETANJALI GAYATRI/TNS CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 Demanding a copy of the report of the one-man Justice Iqbal Singh inquiry commis- sion submitted to the Haryana Government on the Rewari violence over land acquisition in July last year, the Bhoomi Adhigrahan Virodh Samiti, Rewari, today also sought the withdrawal of criminal cases registered against villagers. The samiti made this demand before a committee headed by Industries Minis- ter Randeep Singh Surjewala to resolve the land acquisi- tion issues in Rewari. Sources said the samiti had also rejected the award for land acquisition under the existing provisions, propos- ing that the award must be given as per the new Land acquisition Bill. “The demand for withdrawal of criminal cases and compen- sation as per the new legisla- tion have already been con- veyed to the government at today’s meetings,” a member of the samiti delegation said. Sources said the committee would now ask the Home Department to provide the report to the samiti. The Inquiry Commission had in its report said that the protest against land acquisi- tion proceedings in Rewari where a farmer-police clash left many injured was the handiwork of “outsiders with vested interests”. They had mingled with farmers and ignited passions, leading to blocking of the highway and policemen being held hostage. Suggest- ing that the government should consider dropping the cases registered against farmers, the report also rec- ommended medical compen- sation to the farmers and policemen. The commission had sug- gested that the Deputy Com- missioner should be made overall in charge of the dis- trict as far as law and order was concerned. The govern- ment should go ahead with its plan for an industrial proj- ect on the land, it recom- mended in the report. REWARI VIOLENCE OVER LAND ACQUISITION Farmers seek award under new acquisition Bill VAT slashed on textile products TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE CHANDIGARH OCTOBER 7 Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda today reduced VAT on textile products and carpets, druggets, woollens, durries, cotton floor durries and rugs from 12.5 per cent to 5 per cent. This would benefit the traders to the tune of about Rs 150 crore. Addressing representatives of various trade unions here today, Hooda assured traders that the government would favourably consider their demand for further relief in filling VAT-D 3 Form. He said the government had already increased the limit for this form from Rs 10,000 to Rs 25,000 . The textile products on which VAT has been reduced included pillow covers sold with bedsheets, comforters, etc. Opinion 8 THE TRIBUNE, CHANDIGARH, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2013 P RIME Minister Dr. Manmo- han Singh met Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif a day after addressing the United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 28 and the two discussed all important issues, includ- ing Kashmir, sharing of river waters, Siachen, Sir Creek and Baluchistan. Earlier, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh also had a meeting with US President Obama. During his meeting with President Obama, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh explained to him how Pak- istan had become the epicenter of international terrorism. The recent attack by Pakistan-trained militants on a police station and an Army post in Kathua district of J&K was also mentioned. President Obama is also fully aware of the deadly extent of the activities of jihadi outfits like Lashkar-e-Taiba in India. USA had even announced a reward of $10 mil- lion on the head Hafiz Saeed, the chief of LeT and its parallel outfit Jamat-ud-Dawa and had described him as an international terrorist. In his address at the UN General Assembly also the Prime Minister referred to the terrorist organisations backed by Al-Qaida from Pakistan. On his part Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif spoke of issues such as Kash- mir, the need to ascertain the opinion of the people of Kashmir in deciding on its future and status. He also referred to issues like Siachen and Baluchistan, where, Pakistan had alleged that Indian agencies were instigating a revolt. During their interaction in New York, Sharif asserted that there was no evidence against LeT regarding its role in the November, 2008 attacks in Mumbai. He also insisted that Jamat-ud-Dawa, the parallel organi- sation founded by Hafiz Saeed was only interested in extending various forms of help to the rural people of Pakistan and was not known to have indulged in any terrorist activities. It was obvious that Sharif was only try- ing to play to the gallery, particular- ly the militant and religious funda- mentalists in Pakistan. The internal situation in Pakistan is in chaos and the state of affairs is known to India as well as USA and other western countries. An analyst has commented in the News Week of Pakistan that Karachi, Peshawar and Quetta are known to be the bases of terrorist groups and even Lahore has joined the ranks as a ter- rorist base. This analyst also pointed out that the well-known universities in Pakistan had also become bases of terrorist elements. However, Pakistan’s newly elected Prime Minister seems to be overlook- ing the fact that he is, in fact, playing with fire by trying to downplay the existence of extremist elements in his country. The bombing of an ancient Church in Quetta on September 22, in which 85 persons were killed and over 100 injured was a gruesome reminder to the Nawaz Sharif government tha- treligious fundamentalist elements like Taliban should not be ignored. On October 2, 2013 afternoon Lt. Gen. Gurmeet Singh of Srinagar- based 15 Corps briefed the media about the ongoing encounter in the Keran sector of Kupwara district of the LoC. The Corps Commander dis- closed that the encounter was on for the past 10 days and as many as 35- 40 militants had infiltrated into the forest of Keran sector of Kupwara district. In the flushing out operation carried out by the Army, 15 intruders had been killed and the operation continued for apprehending the remaining militants. Apart from the fact that it was a brazen attempt on the part of the Pakistani Army to ini- tiate the encounter apparently for the purpose of infiltrating militants into Kashmir it exposed the charade which Pakistan Prime Minister tried to maintain during his meeting with Dr. Manmohan Singh. However, the fact that this encounter has been going on for the past nine days involving 35-40 militants who are suspected to be from Pakistan spe- cial troops exposed the design and undependability of Pakistan Army. It also proves once again that Sharif has not been able to exercise com- plete control over General Kayani and ISI so far. It is, therefore, futile to hope for peace along the LoC and good conduct on the part of Pakistan Army and the ISI. With Sharif sticking to inanities like his assertion that Pakistan itself was a victim of terrorism and that it was not helping any jihadi groups, the meeting produced no worthwhile results. In making such assertions, Sharif was only deluding himself even more than he tried to explain Pak- istan’s position. When asked by a media person that since this was his first interaction with Nawaz Sharif and whether he got the impression of him being master of his own destiny or he was being held back by the ISI and the Pakistan Army, Manmohan Singh could only reply that he sincerely hoped that Nawaz Sharif would succeed in carrying out his mission. There can’t be any further comment on the possible outcome of the meeting between the two Prime Ministers. At the meeting between Manmohan Singh and Nawaz Sharif, it was agreed that the incidents across the LoC would, henceforth, be taken up by the DGMOs of both the countries who would try to resolve these. This seems to be the only worthwhile outcome of the meeting of the two prime minis- ters, though it remains to be seen how effective his arrangement would be. Sharif also assured the Indian Prime Minister that the most favoured nation protocol would be extended to India in order to facilitate trade between the two countries. As for the crucial question of progress to bring to justice those involved in Mumbai attacks in 2008, Pakistan Foreign Secretary Jalil Abbas Jilani said a Judicial Commission had recently visited India, with the autho- risation to cross-examine and its report was awaited. Keeping in view, the state of affairs, nothing more could have been expect- ed from the meeting of the two prime ministers. On the other hand, the interaction between Dr. Manmohan Singh and President Obama was quite produc- tive. India has been a strategic part- ner of USA in defence matters. India has now agreed to participate in joint exercises with the US fleet in the Asia Pacific Region. It is also reported that the purchase of a nuclear reactor for generating power from one of the private com- panies in the US has been agreed upon, though the details are still not available. In the defence sector USAhas hand- ed over a list of 10 defence technolo- gies for transfer to India, thereby bringing it into the small group of close allies with whom America shares such sensitive details. This marks a definite step forward in the Indo-US defence ties and strategic partnership. � The writer is a former Intelligence Bureau chief and Governor of Sikkim, West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh. He was awarded the Padma Vibhushan in 2012 Much talk, some substance Sharif tries to downplay existence of extremist elements in Pak T HE Indian Air Force (IAF), which came into being 81 years ago, has come a long way from the time it was raised by the British as an auxiliary air force in 1932 with initially just four Westland Wapiti IIAsingle-engine biplanes. Post-Independence, the IAF has been among with the world’s busiest: It has participated in wars with Pakistan, been involved in military engagements over- seas (Sri Lanka) and in UN peace support operations, continues to be engaged in air maintenance operations in some of the world’s most treacherous terrains setting new records as a matter of rou- tine and exercises with some of the world’s most advanced air forces, including the US Air Force. The IAF, which is currently in the midst of unprecedented mod- ernisation and capability enhancement, has in the last decade- and-a-half inducted long-range Su 30 MKI multi-role fighters, flight refuelling aircraft, Airborne Warning and Control Systems and the US-made C-17 and C-130J Hercules transport aircraft. The transport aircraft, however, are essentially replacements for the age- ing Soviet-origin IL 76 and An-32 fleet. But despite these new inductions and capabilities, the IAF seems to be fighting a losing battle — both quantitative and qualitative — when it comes to its fighter squadrons. Numerically, the IAF is depleted to 33 fighter squadrons (a 34th squadron is currently under raising) against its sanctioned strength of 42. The much delayed indigenously developed Light Combat Aircraft is still some time away from induction, which means the IAF will need to continue to fly its museum piece MiG 21s that have a dubi- ous flight safety record. Equally serious is the recent statement of the Chief of Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Norman Anil Kumar Browne, that the IAF has no backup plan in case India does not make a timely purchase of the shortlisted French-made Rafale medium multi-role combat aircraft which are meant to replace the ageing Jaguars and the other MiG series aircraft — the MiG 23s, MiG 27s and MiG 29s. There could then be a rapid decline in the number of fighter aircraft fleet between 2017-2022, making the IAF worse off than now. The government, which would be aware of all this, needs to take timely measures so that the country’s air power capabilities do not deteriorate further. The Tribune Established in 1881 IAF blues Depleting squadrons a matter of concern by Rashmi Oberoi by T.V. Rajeshwar One fine day, when the lights went out U S Army Delta Force commandos have apprehended a terror- ist who had a bounty on his head. The ineffectual protest by the Libyan government notwithstanding, the arrest of Abu Anas al-Liby, who had a $5 million reward on his head, by the US special forces hardly caused any ripples. It is another notch in the aggressive US policy of hunting down terrorists, especially of the Al-Qaida variety, no matter where they are to be found. Nazih Abdul- Hamed al-Ruqai, or al-Liby, is said to have been involved in the simul- taneous bombings of the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998. He had a longstanding involvement with Al-Qaida operations and was seen as a high-value target by the Americans. The US special forces did not get similar success in a simultaneous attack in Somalia, where they had to withdraw following stiff resist- ance from the local Al-Shabab terrorists. They also found that their target was present where they expected him. The mixed success of the two operations serves to highlight the triumphs as well as limita- tions that such options have. On the one hand, the US has shown its willingness and ability to strike at will against high-value terrorists. On the other, there is only so much that special operations can achieve. It has to engage with terrorists through various other means too, even as it has to tread gingerly into locations where it has no sovereign rights. The US will have to address the issue of violating international laws during such raids. It has seen its policy thwarted in Syria, after a strong Russian intervention. Now the UN is doing the job that it should have been doing in the first place. Indeed, even as terrorists spread their tentacles far and wide, international cooperation, not unilateralism, is the key to defeating them. However, till various nations facing ter- rorism work together to build a common mechanism to deal with it, such raids will take place and will be widely welcomed. US continues its war against Al-Qaida Internal democracy the only fix Another terrorist caught Party discipline T HE Congress is trying to put down the smoke rising from many quarters in its Haryana state unit. In Punjab, one can even see the ambers. Unable to enforce discipline on rebellious ele- ments, Congress general secretary Shakeel Ahmed on Sunday said party leaders should refrain from going to the media with their grievances, and instead raise them through the party protocol. The problem in the Haryana Congress is the multiple aspirants for the post of Chief Min- ister, which they expect will be up for grabs after the Assembly elec- tions next year. In Punjab, it is the position of state party president, as not all senior leaders have reconciled to Partap Singh Bajwa. When does a leader rebel in a party? Obviously, when he feels he deserves more than he has, and no one is listening to him. Going to the media is never the first choice. When it comes to eyeing the top few positions, minor sops don’t work, which is why ‘talks’ often don’t help. A determined aspirant will settle for nothing less than his pound of flesh. Depending on a leader’s vote worth, making noise in the media works too — his choice of a few candidates, a posi- tion at the Centre, or a few ministerial berths for ‘his people’. Action, as threatened by Ahmed, usually comes only when it is clear a leader won’t come around or if his worth is assessed low. And how is the worth assessed? Through ‘hearings’ the high com- mand holds with state leaders and workers. This is where coteries come into play, as they can influence who gets a hearing. Many are left with the feeling they got a raw deal. The only sure method of assessing a person’s worth is through votes — internal party democracy. It may not be a coincidence that the Youth Congress has been quite disci- plined ever since Rahul Gandhi introduced secret ballot to elect the leadership. The Congress — just as other parties — has not had the courage to go for this advanced experiment with democracy. You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean doesn’t become dirty. —Mahatma Gandhi Letters to the Editor W HEN you reside in one of those presti- gious gated com- munities that are “oh-so” famous in the real-estate hub of Gurgaon, facilities like security, recreational cen- tres, 24x7 power back-up and other amenities are taken for granted. This mundane evening around 4pm, there was a power outage. Over time, it is so ingrained in us that subconsciously by the time one slowly counts to 10, the back-up generator is usual- ly on and the lights are back before you know it. Well, that day. The generator mal- functioned as well and the Facilities Manager announced with aplomb that it was a major breakdown. I stood in my favourite bal- cony that houses all my plants and soaked in my sur- roundings. Half an hour later, I sud- denly noticed the building across showed signs of life. I always wondered if there were any inhabitants dwelling there. Balcony doors were being opened, “life-forms” were actually leaning against the railings. I noticed a few old ladies fanning themselves with hand-fans. I could see move- ment at last. Voila! My neighbour upstairs was dragging chairs out into the balcony as well. A lot of commotion above. I glanced down and saw my neighbours out in their gar- den and we chit-chatted for a bit, with me leaning over rather precariously. That was quite nice as most often than nought I end up chat- ting with their Labrador puppy who is a great fan of mine. Obviously, I mean who has time to chat with dogs. Tsk...Tsk! There were definitely many more kids in the park than most usual evenings. More people strolling around too. The zombies had risen. I over- heard little kids grumbling and mumbling about the nuances of a tragic evening befalling over them. No TV, no video games, no computer. By Jove, it was a disaster. I couldn’t help and snigger at how much tougher we were as kids. Power outages were a part of life. The kerosene lamps/lanterns, candles and diyas were all part of our childhood till we got the LED lights that were in vogue. I fondly remember the holidays I used to spend with my grandparents on their farm. Electricity would be available on alternate days. One never quite fig- ured that system out but it was so thrilling to get ice- cubes in our phalsa squash on the ‘light’ days. But we lived like that happily, with- out a care in the world. Past 6 pm, I could see myself getting restless too and started pacing my flat like a caged tigress. It was way past my ‘gym’ time you see. The machines in the gym were dead as door nails but I could cycle, right, so I did. I could see people get- ting more and more impa- tient as it grew dark and there were no signs of elec- tricity returning. Back at my flat, I got a brainwave. This article was forming in my mind. So I did what anyone in such a situation would do, put pen to paper. This was not an easy task, I daresay, in the backdrop of a flicker- ing candle. Hey presto, here it is. I did realise something very important while writing this piece. I need to start wearing glasses. Like they say, à votre santé!� Telangana state opens Pandora’s box T HIS refers to the editorial ‘Telangana travails’ (October 5). Amidst a spate of resigna- tions, agitations, slugfest and diplo- macy, it is regretted to find that every action taken, be it against or in favour of the creation of Telangana, is marred by politics. Every political party has moulded itself to move with an eye on the vote bank. If we have true nationalist feelings in us, we should not be bothered about the creation of another state. There is no harm if the states, which are too big to be effectively governed and man- aged with regard to various consider- ations, are partitioned. The new state remains where it was and continues to be an inherent part of our country. The smaller states facilitate effective gov- ernance and the benefit of various gov- ernment schemes reaches more and more people. The sharing of capital should also not be seen as the root cause of strained relations. If our leaders inculcate in them the spirit of being Indian first, such grudges and discon- tentment will stop brewing within them and the masses led by them. In my opinion, such sharing of capital should strengthen the bonds and feelings of brotherhood. It is only the filth of dirty politics in the minds of our leaders that vitiates and poisons the minds of mass- es and breeds in them the separatist feelings which when grow to larger proportions become canker. DR SANJEEVTRIKHA, Fatehabad ‘Fair’ price At present, manufacturers deliberately leave a big gap between the printed Maximum Retail Price (MRP) or the list price and the actual ex-factory price of commodities mainly to be used as bribe for purchase officers in govern- ment and private-sector offices. Most- ly, the actual ex-factory price is just one third of the printed price or MRP or the list price. To stop this practice, the Union Government should impose excise duty on the basis of MRP rather than ex-factory price. Even today, such a system is prevailing for some select commodities, which should be compul- sorily extended for all commodities in general. These observations are based on information provided by some man- ufacturers whose products are mainly supplied to various Centre and state government departments. The government should also make appropriate changes in the Packaged Commodities Act to check the menace of gimmick packaging by manufactur- ers to cheat consumers. It should be made compulsory to have all packaged commodities only in the packs of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 gms/mls/kgs/ltrs only to avoid gimmick packaging by manufacturers. Goods packed by num- bers should likewise be only in the packs of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1,000 and similar multiples of 1,000 abolishing packing by dozens etc. India should follow South Africa in extending the RTI Act to the private sector too. MADHU AGRAWAL, New Delhi T HE property tax levied by the government in Punjab that is confined to residential units is not a property tax but a kind of wealth tax because it is linked to the collector rate of land fixed for each area. The collector rate is subject to revision at any point of time, thus increasing the burden on homeowners in future. Even the income tax laws give exemption to one dwelling unit/house from wealth tax. Here the government is burdening the public with its oppressive and irrational policies. We can understand being billed for electricity, water, etc because we make use of these utilities. But how does the government explain and justify the imposition of property tax on a non-productive, non- revenue generating property? The government is in dire straits and it is being misled and misguided by its advisers to garner resources. Any tax that the government wishes to impose should be designed in a manner that the people are comfortable and willing to pay for the smooth functioning of the government machinery. Otherwise, it reflects the dictatorial and monopolistic mindset of the government. The Punjab government should give a second thought on this decision and rework the property tax formula in order to make it rational. BHARAT, Ludhiana Property tax in Punjab Thought for the day The bombing of an ancient Church in Quetta on September 22, in which 85 persons were killed and over 100 injured, is a gruesome reminder to the Nawaz Sharif government that religious fundamentalist elements should not be ignored. 9 OPED Law THE TRIBUNE, CHANDIGARH, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2013 RAVI S. DHAVAN A NY un-thought-through step of creating an Ordinance without urgent need is subver- sive to democracy as embodied in the Constitution. The attempt to create a law as an Ordinance when no foundations worth the name exist for picking up the wand of emer- gency, simply to make a judgment of the Supreme Court vanish, shreds the philosophy of the Constitution. The issue is not so much, at present, whether the Members of Parliament may have an image or character that is sans criminality. Should they be there or not is a matter which Parliament itself has to discuss. Irrespective of the reason for the delay in dialogue in Parliament, it cannot be made an excuse to pick up the emergency leg- islative provisions as given in the Constitution to require the President to sign an Ordinance. Long practice, obviously borrowed from British constitutional provisions, has brought the idea into the Constitution of India that the executive may have powers to enact an emergency legislation as an Ordinance when the Houses of legislature are not sitting, and present it to the President for approval, which shall continue as an enactment in all its intent, unless otherwise repealed or modified by Parliament. If this is not done within a certain duration, the Ordinance shall lapse. But the very premise of utilising this extraordinary power by the executive is surrounded by checks and balances, that there must be conditions of extreme and dire emer- gency to create an Ordinance, and send it to the President, in effect, for ratifica- tion. The content of the power is con- tained in the Constitution, about this there is no doubt. The use of it is writ large with caution. If this power is utilised lightly, during the off periods when Parliament may not be in session, then the world will accuse the executive of conducting a government by decree. The unchaste haste in requiring the President to promulgate an Ordinance can lead to the conclusion that the exec- utive may face lack of support, present and future, of those who ought not to be members of legislature, who want to reserve their seats, so to speak, now, looking toward an approaching election. In Hindustani, such an effort would be termed as “apne hiton ki vakalat”. Perhaps the confidence to frame an Ordinance when Parliament is not in session may be resting on Article 74 of the Constitution. This Article enjoins that the Council of Ministers with the Prime Minister at the head will aid and advise the President, who will in the exercise of his functions act in accor- dance with such advice. Simply put, those who want the Ordinance to go through are resting in the confidence that the President is obliged and bound by the advice of the Council of Ministers, but this is not so. This very Article 74 permits the President to require the Council to reconsider such advice, either generally or otherwise. But then, when the ball is sent back to the President there is an obligation that he shall act in accordance with the advice tendered after such reconsidera- tion by the Prime Minister and his Council of Ministers. For an objective, rational and thinking President, may it be said that the rigidity, if there be so, closes the door on the President? No rubberstamp The soul of the Constitution has left one door ajar for the President to look into what is presented rationally and objec- tively. The President is not a rubber- stamp Head of the State, lest anybody might locate him in the world of lost ‘riyasats’, to call him ‘Nawab-be- Mulk’. After all, it is the President who has been conferred with the powers or discretion in matters relating to Bills that are under consideration of Parliament to call for joint sitting of both Houses by his message if Parliament is sitting, or by public notifi- cation if Parliament is not sitting. The intention of the President, read and writ- ten in the Constitution, is to summon both Houses in Parliament for a joint session for the purpose of deliberating and voting on a Bill under considera- tion. The reference is to Article 108. The purpose is to demonstrate that the President has discretion in what is being forwarded to him to complete the process of legislation to become an enactment. This is, of course, when MPs have an inclination and desire to aid the Bill to become an enactment. The President helps in this, MPs with this help deliberate on the Bill if it is their desire to carry the motion through and put the Legislation on the Statute Book. But catching the President to pay heed to a Constitutional provision, and seek- ing his abetment behind the backs of a Parliament not in session is an exercise that puts a very heavy weight on the shoulders of the executive. Why? Because the Constitution has qualified the circumstances in which the President should use the power. Not just executive act The legislative powers of the President to promulgate ordinances during the recess of Parliament bind the President with innumerable cautions, which are spelled out in the Constitution, Article 123, under the head: “Legislative Powers of the President”. If a draft ordi- nance has been forwarded to the President, the promulgation of which is required during a recess of Parliament, then how much and with what objectiv- ity, due care and caution the President has to look into the Ordinance is spelled out by this provision of the Constitution. The Constitution puts an obligation on the President that if he is satisfied that cir- cumstances exist that render it necessary for him to take immediate action, then he may promulgate as the circumstances appear to him to require that action may be considered under his legislative pow- ers. Each phrase in this Article is preg- nant with meaning. Ordinance is a leg- islative act, not an executive act. The sending of the draft Ordinance to the President may be an executive act, but not when the President is obliged to con- sider it. The President exercises legisla- tive powers within the contemplation of the Constitution. No one can question the President if he takes each factor men- tioned in Article 123 to assess for himself whether he will pick up his pen to sign on the draft forwarded so that it becomes an Ordinance. This Article on two occasions uses the phrase “for him” — he must consider the constraints under which he permits his seal to be put as his legislative power. The objectivity of the President to abide by the Constitution, his conscience to weigh each factor in the Article, is not less than that of a Judge when he renders a decision under the oath he has taken under the Constitution. Ordinance Raj In India, history shows how destruc- tive government by Ordinance can be. More than 40 years ago, governments in various states resorted to the exer- cise of legislative powers of the Governors to promulgate Ordinances during the recesses of state legisla- tures. By Ordinance, municipal corpo- rations, municipalities, zila parishads, town area committees, panchayats and mandi parishads were all superseded en masse. On each of these institu- tions, a bureaucrat sat. When the experience of democracy at the local level is lost, the citizen of the republic is in the hands of the marauders of power, unbridled and unquestioned. In states where such ordinances were issued the citizen forgot his civil rights. When the Emergency was proclaimed in 1975, he was virtually told he had no civil rights. Whom could he complain to? Lackeys sat on the chair of institu- tions of local self-government, exercis- ing the powers of the people who were meant to participate in a fully functional democracy. The freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution were taken away by one stroke of the sword. When matters related to the loss of local government went to the Supreme Court, the court was exasperated and termed such state-run governments as “Ordinance Raj”. Finally the matters caused enough concern to be debated in Parliament, and amendments were made to the Constitution. But shameful- ly, though the Constitution was amend- ed more than two decades ago, grass- roots democratic bodies, whether pan- chayats or municipalities, are not func- tional in their true content and meaning, except in a few states. The fabric of the Constitution is experienced in the run- ning of the country. The experience of local self-government has been lost. A generation grew up without this experi- ence. This is the end result of govern- ment by decree, called by the Supreme Court as “Ordinance Raj”. The purpose of reflecting on these mistakes of utilisation of Ordinance powers is to show how harmful these can be. It puts fissures and cracks in the Constitution and the form of govern- ment it envisions. Embarrassment to President If an exercise was undertaken to intro- duce a Bill in Parliament, to eclipse the decision of the Supreme Court, then clearly the Bill was pending considera- tion. In the normal course of Parliamentary procedure there would be recourse to a Standing Committee and further discussion before Parliament. To take recourse to the path of Ordinance and seek the legislative power of the President is not being fair to the President or the citizens of the Republic of India. Abandoning a Bill pending consideration in Parliament and taking recourse to a backdoor method to have it legislated by Ordinance may be an adventure on the fringe of Breach of Privilege of the Houses of Parliament and a coup de grace to the trust in Parliament. It was a shabby exercise in mediocrity, of a badly timed use of misplaced power. It has left the parliamentarians not in government in a quandary to rec- oncile with recourse to two powers on the same subject matter, a double-bar- relled approach. A Bill is pending in Parliament and simultaneously resort has been taken to invoke the legislative powers of the President. This must be embarrassing to the President. There is a lesson to be learnt in the his- tory of parliamentary democracy. On things that can wait and in the ordinary procedures of Parliament be introduced as Bills, the opportunity cannot be denied to the Opposition to express their views. After all, it will only be a debate in Parliament which will carry the motion on the introduced Bill if it is to become law. If the majority fails, then so be it. But a sneaky attempt to resort to promulgation of Ordinance when a Bill may be pending on the same subject, awaiting Parliament to convene, dis- graces the Constitution. The writer is a former high court chief justice. The sending of draft Ordinance to the President may be an executive act, but not when the President is obliged to consider it. The President exercises legislative powers. He can also call for a joint sitting of the Houses to take up a Bill.

The President is not a rubberstamp Head of the State; the Constitution provides for him to look into what is presented to him rationally and objectively.

The loose soil and rocks along the highway are posing a threat to commuters and a nearby rivulet where these are being dumped. Though the PWD authori- ties in Dharamsala had lodged an FIR against the damage to public property (state high- way) due to the illegal cutting down of the hill, no action has been taken to stop it. PWD Executive Engineer Vijay Chaudhary at Dharam- sala said he had issued a notice to people using JCBs to cut the hill. When they did not respond to the notice, the authorities filed an FIR against them. "The illegal activity has caused a damage of Rs 4 lakh to the state highway. We will recover the amount from the accused," the Executive Engi- neer said. The illegal activity was largely taking place at night. The soil and boulders were falling on the state high- way and obstructing traffic. The accused were also dump- ing loose soil downhill along the road into the rivulet pass- ing through the area. A few policemen had reportedly visited the spot after an FIR was registered against the accused, but the illegal cutting down of the hill continues unabated. A PWD official said they traced the owner of the land to Palampur. After the notice was sent to him, the owner challenged the authorities that it was his land and he could do anything in the area. However, even if it is pri- vate land, one has to take per- mission from the PWD and forest authorities before rais- ing any structure or carrying out any construction activity along the road. Moreover, dumping into natural rivulets is banned. The PWD authorities said the cutting down of a portion of the hill could also damage the adjoining hills and pose a threat to commuters on the road due to loose rocks falling from the hill.

Photo: Kamaljeet TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE SHIMLA, OCTOBER 7 Arun Dhumal, son of BJP leader PK Dhumal, today refuted allegations of any wrongdoing in the land pur- chase made in Dharamsala, in which an FIR had been reg- istered against him and his MP brother Anurag Thakur. "I have been compelled to hold the first press conference of my life as all sorts of alle- gations are being made about the land purchase made by me and my elder brother, which I would like to clarify," he told mediapersons. He said the news reports appearing in the media were incorrect as they had neither forged any documents nor made seller of the land Premu landless. An FIR has been registered by the Vigilance Bureau against Arun and Anurag. The case pertains to purchase of 32 marlas of land at a cost of Rs 3.60 lakh. The sale deed was registered on January 17, 2008, in the office of Sub- Registrar in Dharamsala. He distributed documen- tary evidence of the land deal, including the sale deed and an affidavit by the sell- er Premu that he had not been rendered landless. The affidavit also mentions that the stipulated period of 15 years during which he could not sell the land had also got over. Premu in the affidavit has mentioned that the land was given to him on December 7, 1992. He said the fact that nobody was aware of the complainant or the basis of the FIR clearly raised questions on the inten- tion of the Vigilance Bureau. Arun Dhumal justifies land deal TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE SHIMLA, OCTOBER 7 Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh today said the con- struction on all four parking projects here should be speeded up and proposals for creating more parking places should be prepared. Presiding over a review meeting of "Parkings and Comprehensive Mobility Plan" project here, he said under-construction parking projects at Sanjauli (400 vehi- cles), Chhota Shimla (250 vehicles), lift (700 vehicles) and Vikas Nagar (175 vehi- cles) should be completed soon. He said two floors of Sanjauli parking would be completed by January while Chhota Shimla car parking should be completed within a year. He directed officers to fix the time limit for the comple- tion of other two under-con- struction parkings. The Municipal Corporation had identified 71 sites for park- ings of over 5,000 vehicles and these should be construct- ed under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode. He said the parking facility for 350 vehicles would be con- structed at new IGMC hospital. Virbhadra said there were 55,000 registered vehicles in Shimla and 1,769 of them were parked on the streets and 512 on off-street parking space. He said a Comprehensive Mobility Plan (CMP) had been prepared for the town to address traffic growth with action for achieving the objectives for sustainable multi-model transport sys- tem for the city. APersonal Rapid Transit sys- tem would be introduced in the town to decongest the traffic. He said it would be set up on Circular Road at a cost of Rs 750 crore on Design Built and Operate Transfer bases to avoid the traffic congestion. Virbhadra directed the MC authority to take the services of expert conservation architect Ved Segan for the renovation of town hall building. Plan to set up solar power plants, lights TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE SHIMLA, OCTOBER 7 The government has drawn up a plan to set up solar power plants in major office complexes and police sta- tions and install solar lights. Giving this information here today, Power Minister Sujan Singh Pathania said Himurja would set up 4-kw solar power plants at all the district Secretariats and 2-kw plants at all 219 police stations. He said a 6-kw solar plant had already been set up at the state Secretariat here. Besides, a 10-kw solar plant had been established at the Ransar island in the Pong reservoir and 2-kw plant and 200-kw plant at Baru Sahib. Pathania was speaking after inaugurating the two- day Green Energy Fair organised as a part of World Wildlife Week by the WWF- India in association with Himurja and the local Municipal Corporation. He said the solar city plan for Shimla had already been approved and 1,000 solar streetlights would be soon installed in the city. The solar plan for Hamirpur had also been formulated and likely to be approved shortly. Chief Executive Officer of the Himurja Bhanu Pratap Singh said the Centre had sanctioned 10,000 solar lanterns for Kinnaur district which would go a long way, ensuring uninterrupted power in the far-flung areas. Dharmani to forgo facilities of CPS OUR CORRESPONDENT BILASPUR, OCTOBER 7 Rajesh Dharmani, Chief Parliamentary Secretary (CPS), who resigned earli- er and later withdrew it, has expressed anguish over the news items pub- lished in local dailies regarding his resignation and its reasons. Talking to mediapersons here today, Dharmani was critical of a few journalists who never talked to him, yet wrote stories by “putting words into my mouth, prob- ably under the guidance of our able friends”. Dharmani said he had been feeling uncomfortable for several months as he had not been given any responsibili- ty. He said that was why he had now decided to forgo all facilities and not accept any salary of the CPS, bungalow and government cars. He said,"I will accept the office in the Secretariat as it is meant for people and I still believe that I might be of some use to people and vot- ers through this office." He denied that he had resigned to put any pressure for any ministerial berth or for getting any better posi- tion, nor it was any politi- cal drama.

No. 07 DPR/Pb/3316-D AJAY BANERJEE/TNS NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 It has been four days since mil- itants holed up along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Keran sector have fired a shot. An internal assessment of the Army is that three sq km area may be dumped with war-like stores of ammunition, guns and bombs. Troops on the ground aided by a small unit of the para- commandos and armed with equipment to detect ammuni- tion have been tasked to comb the area thoroughly. The fact that militants had survived at an altitude of 10,000 feet for so long means they were well- equipped and well-stocked with dry rations. Troops have been instructed to move with caution. The area has dense forest. There could be mines and also other wire- traps that could trigger blasts leading to needless casualties. Even a dead body of a militant could be a booby-trap to cause deaths. Four Indian Army jawans have been injured so far. The dense jungle provide ideal hiding ground. The mountains are jagged which hold the possibility of natural crevices which could have been used to dump stores. The fact that terrorist have not fired a shot in four days does not mean that they have gone back to Pakistan. “This could very well be a ploy to entice troops deeper within the forests,” said sources. Indian Army is in a dominat- ing position from all sides. The terrorists are holed up, but the terrain is undulating and is very treacherous with four nallahs criss-crossing the areas. The location is peculiar. It is west of the Shamshabari ridge that will soon be under snow closing all ingress routes. The 268th infantry Brigade is head- quartered at Pharkian Gali while a battalion of the Army is stationed between the ridge- line and the LoC - a distance of some 12-15 km. SAD, Cong’s ‘murky’ land deals Won’t go ahead with buildings project, Tata Co informs SC From page 1 changed assuring the court that his client would maintain sta- tus quo on its own. The peti- tioners’counsel told the bench that 52 acres of agriculture land was allotted to MLAs, sitting and former, in 2007 who, in turn, gave it to the company after bargaining for a flat and Rs 80 lakh to each of them. Contending that the project was in the catchment area of the lake, they said this would make the lake dry up. Singhvi disputed the argument. Allowing the construction of 19 towers with 7 to 28 stories each would prove to be cata- strophic, the petitioners plead- ed. The Bench clarified that sta- tus quo would cover even pro- cessing of the company’s appli- cations for clearances. A hundred militants fighting the Army? From page 1 The 20 Kumao regiment had informed the Army head- quarters about this large- scale incursion. In fact, it was after the unit informed the Army headquarters about the large infiltration that they were shifted from the sector. “And when a unit of 3/3 Gorkha Rifles on Septem- ber 24, launched a search to flush out the militants in Sha- labhato, the large number of hiding militants opened fire on the troops. In the initial gunfight, Army said, they noticed bodies of 12 mili- tants lying at the encounter site,” the sources said. “Since then Army has not been able to recover any body from the site,” he added The sources said that it was possible that militants might have pulled these bodies back to the PoK. However, Army’s top Kashmir Com- mander Lt Gen Gurmit Singh had said recently that it was unlikely to have happened. From page 1 “We told the PM that our res- ignations must be accepted so we can return to the state and talk to people as one of them. Unless we resign, we won’t have the credibility to go back. It’s sad that till today no one has gone to talk to the angry peo- ple not even the Antony com- mittee,” Purandeshwari said. The four ministers had earli- er faxed their resignations to the PM but the same had not been accepted. HRD Minister Pallam Raju in an exclusive conversation with The Tribune today said it had become essen- tial for Seemandhra ministers to meet the PM and again resign because their act was being mocked as “posturing”. 4 Union ministers quit From page 1 in the print and electronic media beginning on September 20. As the members cutting across party lines resolved that there should be an enquiry, the CM observed “I want the Cen- tre to recognise our senti- ments”. However, CPM MLA MYTarigami urged the CM to adopt the resolution for it would have a greater impact. “I am open to one-line resolution on the conduct of a time bound enquiry”, Omar Abdullah said at the end of his speech. Speaker Mubarak Gul sought a voice vote from the House that was unanimously passed by all the members. The CM, in his address, said that it was necessary to restore the image of the political lead- ers and members of the State Legislature ahead of the next year’s general and Assembly elections. J&K House adopts resolution on VK Singh’s remarks Militants may have left war-like stores KERAN SHOWDOWN From page 1 the latter came back with reams of papers, procured from the Revenue Department, on land deals between Congress gener- al secretary Fateh Jung Bajwa and Khaira, and those involv- ing his brother and Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Partap Singh Bajwa and the latter’s kin. The Congress leaders have been accused of selling land in Mullanpur near Chandi- garh at the existing market rates, but getting the sale deeds registered for land bought here at much lower prices than the market rates to avoid paying stamp duty. Earlier, Congress spokesper- son Sukhpal Khaira alleged that NK Sharma had not only evaded paying stamp duty by changing the nature of land he was buying, but of also under- valuing the price of this land. Khaira said that Sharma was constructing a mega housing project on 11 acres in Zirakpur. “Information obtained through Right to Information Act reveals that Sharma’s company, VN Sharma Builders Pvt Ltd, has got his land registered as “chahi” (agricultural) land in March 2013 whereas the revenue records (fard girdawri) show that about 650 flats had already been constructed on this land in 2012-13. “Since this land was no longer agricultural land, he should have got it registered as residential land. However, since the land registration charges and stamp duty on agricultural land is much less than on residential land, he evaded paying additional stamp duty to the tune of Rs 4.5 crore,” Khaira said. Khaira also alleged that Sharma’s company, in which he is director, also undervalued the land, showing its value as just Rs 25 crore, to pay less stamp duty on it. Sharma categorically denied that he had either evaded stamp duty or under- valued the land, maintaining that he had struck a deal to buy agricultural land measur- ing 9.137 acres in 2010 and had the consent letters from the original land owners to use the land commercially. “We had also applied for change in land use (CLU) and paid the external development charges (EDC) within months of buying this land. He said that he was open to any investigation as his deal- ings were above board. “Fateh Jung Bajwa sold a 13 kanal and nine marla plot to Khaira in Karoran village of Mohali at the rate of Rs 31 lakh per acre though the mar- ket price was Rs 2 crore per acre. Audit objections have been raised on this land deal and Khaira is facing an inquiry,” Sharma said. Meanwhile, Fateh Jung Bajwa said, “In Bharojian, I exchanged my property with a piece of land in Delhi so we gave the exchange rate on papers. In the case of proper- ty of Pratap Bajwa, it was basically a forest land which even we did not know at the time of purchase. Since it can- not be used for normal agricul- ture or construction, its land value was very less”. CM WRITES TO PM Chief Minister Omar Abdullah told the Assembly that he had written to the Prime Minister on the VK Singh’s remarks. In the letter, he sought the charges to be “probed in order to arrive at truth which can be shared with the general public” PRADEEP KUMAR SINGH T EACHERS play a very important role in the life of students. They are like bea- cons of light, guiding students in the formative years of their life. They mould students and shape their future. The education imparted by them remains with students throughout their life. However, very often, society fails to show its appreciation and gratitude for this devotion. Teachers do need encouragement and support from the community to make them feel that their efforts are being recognised. According to Indian philosophy, knowledge cannot be acquired without the support and blessings of the guru who is the academic and spiritual guide. The guru removes darkness of ignorance and enlightens society. In fact, there is no equivalent alternative word for “guru” in any other language. The word “teacher” in English makes only a limited sense, and nor- mally refers to a classroom teacher engaged in formal education. The Indian community realised the importance of the teacher long back and cultivated a custom to honour the guru by celebrating the festival ‘Guru Purnima’ in hon- our of the great sage Vyasa. Of late, the world society also realised this fact, with the result that the concept of Teacher’s Day evolved in several countries in the modern era. Teacher’s Day is considered to be a special day for the appreciation of teachers. It may include celebrations to honour them for their contribu- tions in a particular area or the community in general. The idea of celebrating Teacher’s Day took ground independently in many countries during the 20th century. In most cases the cele- bration is associated with a local educational personality or achievement of an important milestone in education. This is why the countries celebrate this day on different dates, unlike many other international days. At present, over 100 countries mark this event to pay respect to the teaching community, but on different dates. The UNESCO observes the World Teacher’s Day on October 5, which is officially celebrat- ed across the world since 1994. Several coun- tries like Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Canada, Estonia, Germany, Lithuania, Macedonia, Maldives, Mauritius, Republic of Moldova, Netherlands, Pakistan, Philippines, Kuwait, Qatar, Romania, Russia, Serbia, and the UK follow this date. Our country celebrates Teachers’ Day on Sep- tember 5 every year since 1962 to honour the teaching community for their immense contri- bution to the nation and society. This particular date is the birthday of Dr Sarvepalli Radhakr- ishnan, the second President of India and an extremely respected scholar and teacher of phi- losophy. Dr Radhakrishnan was a great freedom fighter, an educationist, an orator, a writer, a statesman and a diplomat. Teacher’s Day is looked forward to by the teachers and students alike. The day is celebrat- ed in academia in different forms. There is organisation of academic activities by students, special games for teachers, sharing of teaching- learning experiences, cultural programmes, felicitating teachers by offering them garlands and flower bouquets and even gifts, etc. This is a good way of building and maintaining healthy relationship between students and teachers. Teacher’s Day is also the occasion when one can look back, recall, admire and get inspired by great teachers and mentors who devoted themselves to society. On this day a large number of teachers select- ed from various fields of education are invited by the President and honoured with the Nation- al Award, which includes a certificate of recog- nition along with a cash prize. The National Award for teachers is a great honour for those of the humble profession. Selection for this award is generally made on the basis of many considerations such as teacher’s personal char- acter and conduct, professional competence, sociability, participation in extracurricular activities, the academic results produced, pro- fessional contribution as a writer and as a researcher in education, the efforts made to eradicate illiteracy, the public support received to build infrastructure for the institution, etc. Thus, the selection of teachers for the Nation- al Award is very competitive, and only excep- tionally meritorious ones can make it to this honour. Besides the national awards, the state awards and the awards by the National Foun- dation for Teachers are also given. In some dis- tricts, district-level awards are also given to encourage sincere teachers. Honour for dedicated teachers through awards is really a commendable step for encouragement to teachers for their contribution to society. However, over the decades, the spirit to honour through awards has become mechanical, and the selection process for the awardee teachers has got vitiated to some extent .The original idea of involving society at large to recognise this noble profession is missing. It is true that in our ancient society teachers once enjoyed a place of honour next to the mother and father. However, due to growing materialism and the erosion of values the teach- ing community is no longer held in high esteem. However, despite all odds, there are teachers who are respected and loved for their selfless service. Most teachers may not get recognition and awards, but the social respect they com- mand is an award in itself. A good teacher is always remembered by all sincere students.

Rebekah Richert, Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Riverside, said many people are involved in designing educational games, and there is a lot of interest in creat- ing high-quality and interactive media. “On the surface they seem like- ly to help children learn. But there can be big gaps between what tech- nology offers and what children really learn.” In a series of studies with children ages 18 months to 6 years, the researchers will exam- ine how toddlers and preschoolers learn from educational media and how that can support STEM education. Among the questions the NSF-funded project will attempt to answer is which characters or types of characters in children’s media — like the popular Dora the Explor- er, created for Nickelodeon, or Sesame Street’s Elmo — could be used to stimulate STEM learning. The psychologists also will con- duct a workshop at Northwestern in spring 2014 involving experts in science education, computer-game design, and television learning for children to consider how best to direct future research to achieve the greatest impact on educational television programmes and com- puter games. Richert said at the end of five years, they hope to be able to provide information about or be actively involved in design- ing high-quality television programmes and games that are most like- ly to engage children in STEM learning. Too much onscreen violence turning teens aggressive SYDNEY: Anew study suggests that heavy exposure to screen vio- lence in adolescence is changing the development of young peo- ple’s brains, which is leading to increased aggression and reckless behaviour and decreased empathy. Evidence presented at the Aus- tralian Council on Children and the media conference in Sydney showed brain-imaging studies, which recorded the way violent mate- rial changes brain activation in the short term and brain function in the long term. According to research presented by Dr Wayne War- burton, Deputy Director of the Children and Families Research Cen- tre at Macquarie University, experiencing screen violence reduces the development of the frontal lobe, which is responsible for impulse control and inhibits aggression, the Sydney Morning Her- ald reported. Exposure to violent material also activates the brain’s limbic system, which is responsible for emotional response and memory. Dr Warburton said images of violence could be stored in the brain in the same way that post-traumatic stress disorder patients store memories of trauma. Violent films and games such as “Grand Theft Auto” and “World of Warcraft” also activate the brain’s right hemisphere, which controls negative feelings such as anger, jealousy and sadness. The impact on the brain is cumula- tive, with the heavier the exposure, the more severe the changes. Dr Michael Nagel, Associate Professor of Education at the Univer- sity of the Sunshine Coast, said the two most vulnerable periods in brain development were in early childhood and puberty. The peak age for video game usage is from 11-14 years. —ANI STUDYSCAPE Dr Y.S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan Work on GIS laboratory to begin soon W ITH the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India, releasing the first instalment of Rs 16 lakh to the universi- ty’s Department of Environment, work to set up a Geographic Information System (GIS) laboratory would soon begin. A sum of Rs 36 lakh has been approved for the project and the first instalment of Rs 16 lakh has been released now, informed Dr Satish Bhardwaj, Head, Department of Environment. This project has been granted under the Fund for Infrastruc- ture Development in Science and Technology (DST) and will help the uni- versity scientists in developing database for carrying out various research- related activities in various environmental aspects. The Department of Envi- ronment, which was set up in 2008, has sent five more projects to DST this year for undertaking research work. Solar radiation resource assessment Asolar radiation resource assessment system has been developed in the uni- versity’s state-level energy park in collaboration with the Centre for Wind Ener- gy Technology, Chennai. An automatic weather station has been developed in this park where activities like solar radiation measurement would be under- taken by assessing various parameters which contribute to global warming. This centre would be centrally linked to Chennai and will help the university prepare research projects for various weather-related atmospheric phenom- enon. Set up at a cost of Rs 28 lakh, this centre will help the agrarian com- munity in getting benefit from weather predictions and related data. The cen- ter, which is being set up at various places across the country by the Ministry of News and Renewable Energy, is the first in the state while another centre would be set up at the State Agriculture University, Palampur. The centre would be centrally linked to Chennai and the scientists would be able to assess data from the other regions as well to assist in research activities. Workshop to develop packages of practices A two-day workshop to develop packages of practice in horticulture and flori- culture will be held in the university from October 8 to October 9. This work- shop will draw experts from floriculture and horticulture from all over the state. The experts will deliberate on the various practices to be adopted by the farm- ing community of the state. The deliberations will lead to recommendations which will be debated upon by the experts and packages of practices will be developed in these two key fields after thoroughly deliberating their pros and cons. Apart from the experts, progressive farmers will also participate in this workshop to thrash out the packages which will be later disseminated to the farming community in the state. This workshop is being held after several years in the university and is being conducted by the Directorate of Extension Edu- cation. Minister for Horticulture Vidya Stokes will be the chief guest on the inau- gural day of the workshop, for which elaborate arrangements are being made by the university. With about 89 per cent of the state's population residing in rural areas and farming being their major occupation, such package of prac- tices help obliterate obsolete farming practices and introduce new techniques which can enhance yield and give optimum results to an farmer. — Contributed by Ambika Sharma In a world of materialism and loss of values, the teaching community is no longer held in high esteem. Despite odds, there are teachers who are respected and loved for their selfless service CAMPUS NOTES 12 DISCLAIMER “The Tribune Trust does not take responsibility for the contents of the advertisements (Display/ Classified) carried in this newspaper.

Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said yesterday that the pre- vious foreign offer, made by the “P5+1” group at two meetings in the Kazakh capital of Almaty before the June election of moderate President Hassan Rouhani, was no longer valid. But Kerry, while welcom- ing recent overtures, including a historic contact between Rouhani and US President Barack Obama, said the ball remained in Iran’s court. “The group of six put a proposal on the table at Almaty and I don't believe as of yet Iran has fully responded to that particular proposal. So I think we are waiting for the fullness of the Iranian difference in their approach now,” he told reporters in Indonesia after meeting Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. “So what we need are a set of proposals from Iran that will fully disclose how they will show the world that their programme is peaceful.” Western powers and Israel have long accused Iran of seeking to develop nuclear bombs in the guise of a civilian programme, charges Tehran has always vehemently denied the pro- posals made in Almaty required Iran to suspend uranium enrichment at the 20 percent level it says it needs for a medical research reactor, and to halt enrichment at its under- ground plant at Fordo near the central city of Qom. EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, who rep- resents the six powers in the talks, said last month that she was still waiting for Iran's response to those previous proposals. But Zarif said that Rouhani's election had changed the dynamics. “The previous offer by the P5+1 is history and they should come to the negoti- ating table with a new approach,” the ISNA news agency quoted him as say- ing yesterday, while renew- ing his insistence that a deal could be reached to address the concerns of both sides. A new round of talks is due in mid-October in Geneva between Iran and the P5+1, comprising the five UN Security Council permanent mem- bers — Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States — plus Germany. — AFP PRAISES SYRIA US Secretary of State John Kerry on Monday said Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad could take “credit” for starting the process of destroying his regime's chemical weapons. —PTI We are waiting for the change in Iran’s approach.

The trio, who all work at US universities, were hon- oured for “their discoveries of machinery regulating vesicle traffic, a major transport system in our cells," it said. Their discoveries have had a major impact on understanding how cargo is delivered within and out- side the cell and have impli- cations for work on several diseases including neuro- logical and immunological disorders, as well as dia- betes, the Nobel committee said. Each cell is a factory that produces and exports molecules. “For instance, insulin is manufactured and released into the blood and chemical signals called neurotrans- mitters are sent from one nerve cell to another. These molecules are transported around the cell in small packages called vesicles," it explained. The three Nobel laureates "have discovered the molecular principles that govern how this cargo is delivered to the right place at the right time in the cell,” it said. The winners will share equally the prize sum of eight million Swedish kronor ($1.25 million). The laureates will receive their prize at a formal ceremony in Stockholm on December 10, the anniversary of prize founder Alfred Nobel’s death in 1896. — AFP 2 Americans, German get Nobel prize for medicine (From left) James E Rothman, Randy W Schekman (both from the US) and Thomas C Suedhof from Germany, all joint winners of the Medicine Nobel Prize. — AFP ISLAMABAD, OCTOBER 7 Two police officers were killed and 11 others injured when a van carrying police- men assigned to protect polio vaccinators was target- ed with an IED near a hos- pital in the Budh Bher area of Peshawar on Monday. The improvised explo- sive device (IED) was planted outside a basic health unit in the Badabher area where vaccination materials were being dis- tributed to volunteers. Around 12 police officers were in the van at the time of the blast. Apoliceman and a volunteer of a pro-govern- ment peace committee were killed by the powerful blast. Eleven civilians sustained injuries in the incident, the latest in a string of attacks on volunteers engaged in Pakistan's polio eradication programme. "The explosion caused by an IED targeted policemen," said SSP(Operations) Najee- bur Rehman. The van was carrying policemen who had been tasked to protect teams going out to vaccinate chil- dren in the area. A police spokesman described as incorrect earli- er reports that seven persons, including several policemen, were killed in the attack. Several policemen and civil- ians, who lost conscious- ness due to the impact of the blast, were wrongly declared dead, he said. Rehman said the bomb went off just as the police van reached the health facility to provide security to polio teams. The polio vaccinators were unhurt as they were inside the health facility, officials said. The injured were taken to Lady Reading Hospital. Two Taliban factions have banned vaccinations in the lawless North and South Waziristan tribal regions. They claimed health workers were spies for the US. — PTI 2 cops killed, 11 hurt in Peshawar blast Malala calls for dialogue with Taliban LONDON, OCTOBER 7 Malala Yousafzai, the Pak- istani teenager who is a front-runner for the Nobel Peace Prize after surviving a Taliban assassination attempt last year, has said dialogue with militants is the only way forward for peace. “ The best way to solve prob- lems and to fight against war is through dialogue,” the 16- year-old said. “That's the job of the gov- ernment...and that's also the job of America...The Taliban must do what they want through dialogue. Killing and flogging people...it’s totally against Islam,” Malala said on a special BBC Panorama programme to be aired on Monday. — PTI Libya not told of anti-terror strike: Kerry TRIPOLI, OCTOBER 7 US Secretary of State John Kerry today said Libyan authorities were not informed of the counter- terrorism operation carried out by US troops in Libya to capture Al-Qaida leader Anas al Libi. Libi was a key suspect behind the bombings of the US embassies in Tanzania and Kenya in 1998, Xinhua reported. Speaking at a joint press conference with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov on the sidelines of 2013 APEC meeting in Indonesia, Kerry said: “The Libyan authorities have not been reported previously in this operation.” "The US is doing every- thing possible and everything appropriate and legal to elim- inate the terrorist threat," Kerry said. He added that Anas al Libi was a “legal tar- get” and he would face justice in a court of law. — IANS 14 Stock Market THE TRIBUNE, CHANDIGARH, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2013 Business Aarti Drugs,(184.05) -0.27 10 Aarti Ind,(71.9) 0.91 4 Aban Offshore,(220.7) 0.14 3.6 ABC(I),(118.5) 0.08 1.5 ABG Heavy,(51.1) -0.78 -

India had displaced its main competitors, Vietnam and Thailand, to second and third positions, respectively last year, mainly due to the lifting of a ban on the export of non-basmati rice in December, 2012. “With an increase of three per cent in the area under paddy and farmers opting for high-yield varieties of rice, the production is bound to rise this year and may cross 110 million tonnes. Exports will also retain last year’s level of 10.4 million tonnes," says Vijay Sethia, former president of the All India Rice Exporters Association. He said the estimates made by the IGC were premature and the authentic figures of production and exports would be available in the next four months. He said, "India is likely to export 3.4 million tonnes of basmati and 6.5-7 million tonnes of non-basmati rice. Already 1.8 million tonnes of basmati and 2.75 million tonnes of non-basmati have been exported and it is just the beginning of the season." India produced 105.30 mil- lion tonnes of rice in the 2012-13 crop year which is likely to be increased to 110 million tonnes whereas there is no rise in demand which was 97.9 million tonnes last year. The total supply of the grain has been projected at 129.9 million tonnes this year and more rice would be avail- able for export. However, the IGC put the exports at 8.5 million tonnes, 10% less than last year, followed by Vietnam's 7.4 million tonnes and Thai- land's 6.5 million tonnes. After the notification of high yielding variety Pusa 1121 as basmati in 2010, farmers preferred growing this variety and area under basmati increased. Howev- er, another variety, Pusa 1509 developed by the Indi- an Agriculture Research Institute (IARI), has beaten Pusa 1121 as it takes 120 days to mature while the latter matures in 145 days. Moreover, the farmers have been earning between Rs 90,000 and Rs 1 lakh per hectare from the Pusa 1509, which is less water consum- ing and has better cooking qualities as compared to Pusa 1121, Vijay Setia said. The Pusa 1509 can be grown July to August 10, when monsoon is active and enough water is avail- able from natural rains. It is being exported and sold as basmati and after a for- mal notification from the government in this regard, rice exports would get fur- ther boost. With an increase of three per cent in the area under paddy and farmers opting for high-yield varieties of rice, the production is bound to rise this year and may cross 110 million tonnes. Exports will also retain last year’s level of 10.4 million tonnes — Vijay Sethia, Ex- president, All India Rice Exporters Association “ “ Hope to get nod for airline JV with SIA, says Tata Sons NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Tata Sons today said it is “hopeful” of getting govern- ment approvals for the pro- posed full service airline in collaboration with Singapore Airlines (SIA). “I think there is a process...

The proposal of Tatas and SIAfor a new joint venture, entailing foreign investment of $49 million, is likely to come up before the Foreign Investment Promo- tionBoard(FIPB) for approval on October 18. — PTI Cooper rejects Apollo tyres’price cut demand NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 ApolloTyres’$2.5billiondeal toacquire Cooper Tire has run into rough weather as its demand for price reduction because of problems relatedto the US firm’s operations in China and concessions to workers’unionhas beenreject- ed by the latter. According to a complaint filed by Cooper in a US court, Apollowanteda price renego- tiation “far greater than the $2.5 reduction it had earlier proposed, andat one point ref- erencing ‘$8 or $9' per share”. As per the original deal announced in June this year, Apollo had agreed to buy Cooper at $35 per share in an all cash transaction. The Indian firm accused Cooper of misrepresenting facts about its Chinese opera- tions andalsoof unwillingness togivefinancial concessions to worker’s union, but the US firm asserted that the risks were part of their deal. In a statement, Apollo said the firm and its financing banks were justified under their merger agreement to ask Cooper to provide updated financial statements “in light of the significant and unantic- ipated costs that go well beyondthoseApollois obligat- edtobear under theagreement. “Cooper has acknowledgedto Apollo that some price reduc- tion is warranted.

DPR/UT/10108-09 Need to resolve food security issue in positive way: WTO chief SANJEEV SHARMA/TNS NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Even as new World Trade Organisation (WTO) chief Roberto Azevedo is garnering support for the ministerial- level talks in Bali in Decem- ber, India has firmly conveyed its stand that programmes like the Food Security Bill are essential for developing coun- tries like India. Ahead of the WTO ministe- rial meet at Bali, WTO head Roberto Azevedo today said India's food security law would raise subsidy levels and the issue needs to be addressed in a positive manner. Some developed countries have raised concerns over the procurement and stock- ing of subsidised foodgrains arguing that it creates market distortions while developing countries like India are argu- ing that food security is essential and impacts the livelihoods of millions of the poor. "One important issue where India is much involved is the food security proposal. Now what is behind that is because prices have been rising in the last few years, we see some countries like India, for example, getting very close to their commitments in the WTO.They would soon be breaching what we call AMS (Aggregate Measurement of Support) commitments in the WTO. So, they are asking for some kind of actions in Geneva that could allow those programmes to contin- ue to work unaffected,” the WTO Director General said. Terming it as a complex issue, he said, “I doubt immensely that we are going to have finalised solution on all aspects of the issue in four weeks. It is just impossible.” India is implementing the Food Security Act which enti- tles 82 crore persons to 5 kg of foodgrain per person per month at the rate of Rs 1-3 per kg. The country needs 62 mil- lion tonnes of foodgrain in a year to implement the law. “The initial proposal (on food security) which was tabled by the G33 was imme- diately rejected by many countries for different rea- sons, but we have made lot of progress since that point of time. From upfront rejection, we now are building envi- ronment for an constructive engagement that will try to address this issue in a positive manner,” Azevedo said in a joint press conference along with Commerce and Industry Minister Anand Sharma said. “The negotiations are com- plex, but there is an apprecia- tion of legitimacy of food secu- rity and the associated con- cerns in India and other devel- oping countries. Now, we have to work towards an acceptable formulations,” Sharma said, adding that talks will find an acceptable solution. Raises concerns over the Bill as it may increase subsidy levels SBI gets first woman boss, Arundhati new chairperson TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE & PTI MUMBAI, OCTOBER 7 Arundhati Bhattacharya was today appointed chairperson of the State Bank of India (SBI), the first woman to head the country's largest lender in its 207-year history. The 57-year-old Bhat- tacharya, the front-runner for the post on account of years of service left, was managing director and chief financial officer of the bank prior to her elevation. A statement from the SBI said Arundhati assumed charge as the chairperson of the bank today, succeeding Pratip Chaudhuri who retired on September 30. The SBI, which has a chair- man or chairperson unlike other Public Sector Banks (PSBs) who have a combined post of CMD, has four MDs. Bhattacharya's elevation leaves one MD post vacant. It also has over a dozen Deputy MDs and over 35 Chief General Managers (CGMs). Bhattacharya joined the SBI as a probationary officer in 1977 and has had stints in areas such as retail, treasury and corporate finance during her 36-year career. She has held various posi- tions, including Deputy Man- aging Director and Corporate Development Officer, Chief General Manager of the Ban- galore circle and new busi- nesses and head of its mer- chant banking arm, SBI Caps, the statement said. She also played a vital role in setting up general insurance, custody services and SBI Macquarie Infrastructure Fund sub- sidiaries, the statement added. She also had a stint at the bank's New York office as the head of external audit and correspondent relations, the SBI said. Her appointment comes at a time when the govern- ment is all set to open the country's first bank dedi- cated for women, Bhartiya Mahila Bank. The SBI and its five sub- sidiaries today control over one-fifth of the nation's bank- ing assets and is the 66th largest bank in the world. Govt must tackle higher subsidy spending soon: FM NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 The government must tack- le a jump in spending on fuel and food subsidies soon- er rather than later, Finance Minister P Chidambaram said, part of a series of steps aimed at stabilising the economy to be announced ahead of an election due within seven months. The economy is suffering its longest and deepest slump in at least a decade. Rating agencies have threatened to downgrade its sovereign debt to "junk" sta- tus, and the government is rac- ing to revive growth in a bid to return to power for a third con- secutive time. "We've done a lot of things, but we have to do many more things, and I think we will do them in the next few weeks and months, both by the gov- ernment and by the central bank," Chidambaram said. India imports nearly 80% of its oil needs and a sharp decline in the rupee's value since May has made government fuel subsidies more costly. “On the government side, sooner (rather) than later we will have to address the issue of higher subsidies than bud- geted, on both fuel and food,” he said, on the eve of a week-long trip to the Unit- ed States.— Reuters AI has to be privatised with political consensus: Ajit NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Though he retracted under attack, Civil Aviation Minister Ajit Singh today stuck to his ground that Air India has to be privatised for which a political consensus has to be built. “This government has only about six months left. There is no plan (for privatising Air India) and the issue is not under active consideration at all,” he said. He, however, maintained it was his personal belief that, in the future, “the gov- ernment of the day will have to look at privatisation and build a political consensus on the issue before taking a position. I never said I am going to do it.” Maintaining that the govern- ment would not give any more funds to the airline after the equity infusion of Rs 30,000 crore till 2021, he said, “I am firmly of the view that the government should not be in the service sector like hotels. Future governments will have to study the (privatisation) issue. But today, the time and the situation is not correct.” Aday after Opposition par- ties like BJP and the Left criticised him for his remarks on the issue, Singh said he was “amazed” to be hearing such reactions. — PTI RBI cuts short-term rate to boost liquidity TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 In a bid to boost liquidity, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) today cut the marginal stand- ing facility (MSF) rate by 50 basis points to 9% further trimming an overnight rate that it had hiked to firefight on the falling rupee. Today’s cut in the short-term (MSF) rate follows a 75 -bps cut in the rate last month. An increase of 200 basis points in the MSF rate in July had tight- ened short-term market liq- uidity. “It has been decided to reduce the MSF rate by a fur- ther 50 basis points from 9.5% to 9% with an immediate effect,” the RBI said. The cut comes after a review of evolving liquidity conditions and in continuation of its calibrated unwinding of exceptional measures taken since July, a statement said. This is the second reduction in the rate since the September 20 mid-quarter monetary pol- icy review, when it was low- ered to 9.5% from 10.25 %. The RBI said it conducted open market purchase oper- ations of Rs 9,974 crore today with the aim of inject- ing liquidity into the system. It said it would provide additional liquidity through term repos of seven-day and 14-day tenor for a notified amount equivalent to 0.25% of net demand and time lia- bilities of the banking system through variable rate auctions every Friday, starting October 11. The notified amount and tenor of the term repo auc- tions will be announced prior to the auction dates. Last month, the RBI said it injected about Rs 1.5 lakh crore into the system daily through the liquidity adjust- ment facility, the export cred- it refinance facility and the marginal standing facility.

Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL), which had been considered the strongest contender, had not put in a bid by the noon deadline, sources privy to the develop- ment said. — PTI FMC told to check contracts at NSEL MUMBAI: In an ad-interim order, the Bombay High Court on Monday directed the For- ward Markets Commission (FMC) to monitor paired and e-series bullion contracts trad- ed at the crises-ridden Nation- al Spot Exchange Ltd (NSEL).

Tribune photograph: Mukesh Aggarwal R SEDHURAMAN/TNS NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 The Supreme Court today suggested formation of a three-member panel headed by former Punjab and Haryana Chief Justice Mukul Mudgal to probe charges of spot and match fixing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket tournament. A Bench comprising Jus- tices AK Patnaik and JS Khe- har sought the response of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the Cricket Association of Bihar (CAB) to its proposal by tomorrow for passing an order on the issue. Additional Solicitor Gener- al N Nageshwar Rao and Assam Cricket Association member Nilay Dutta would be the other members of the proposed panel. The Bench mooted the idea after rejecting BCCI’s plea for allowing the Board to form its own panel for the sec- ond time as the Bombay High Court had held on July 30 that its earlier committee, which had gone into the charges and given a clean chit to all con- cerned including BCCI Pres- ident N Srinivasan's son-in- law Gurunath Meiyyappan, had been set up in violation of its own constitution. The Bench is hearing the appeals of BCCI and CAB against the HC verdict. While the BCCI has challenged the HC ruling that its panel was illegal, the CAB has come against the HC's refusal to constitute a fresh panel. The SC said the proposed panel would submit its report to the court, while the Mum- bai police could go on with its investigations and file a sep- arate case. CAB opposed BCCI's plea for letting the Board set up a fresh panel, contending that it would not serve any purpose as N Srinivasan's company, India Cements, owned IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings, whose team principal was Meiyyappan. Any such probe could not be fair as Srinivasan's son-in-law was facing allegations, CAB maintained. NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 In their quest to paint a rosy picture about the health of Indian cricket, BCCI Presi- dent N Srinivasan and former treasurer Ravi Savant’s note in the Board’s Annual Report doesn’t have a single mention of IPL-VI spot-fixing scandal that rocked Indian cricket. Secretary Sanjay Patel’s two-page note has a passing mention of the spot-fixing and betting scandal involving big names like former inter- national S Sreesanth and BCCI president’s tainted son- in law Gurunath Meiyappan. The Annual Report also doesn't mention IPL’s first Indian dope cheat Pradeep Sangwan’s name while it stated that “364 U-16 crick- eters failed age verification tests.” The 128-page Annual Report of BCCI has the con- troversial Tamil Nadu strongman terming the year as “memorable and eventful for Indian cricket”. The president’s note only waxed eloquent about the achievements of the various cricket teams including the senior, 'A' team, U-19 and U- 23. Srinivasan concluded his note stating, “IPL, in its sixth year, was a great success in terms of cricket content and attendance at all matches”. Patel, in his secretary's report, never used the word “spot fixing” anywhere. Instead, Patel wrote, “The BCCI responded strongly to crisis arising out of IPL-VI. The concerns have been addressed and continue to be dealt with and BCCI will do whatever is necessary to pro- tect the game of cricket in India.” Only in Page 17 of the report, which contains the decisions of the Working Committee during the whole year, has a mention of a probe panel being formed to inves- tigate into charges against Meiyappan. Incidentally that probe panel’s report has since been termed illegal by Bombay High Court. —PTI MUMBAI, OCTOBER 7 With their focus on the No 1 spot up for grabs in the upcoming ODI series against India, Australian captain George Bailey and coach Steve Rixon said the visitors are no longer intimidated by the sub-continental condi- tions, courtesy the exposure they have got through the IPL. “If you look at the tourna- ment, it is not just a tourna- ment but a chance to be No 1 in one of the three for- mats,” said Rixon. “So, it is very important to the players, the coaching staff and Crick- et Australia. At the end of the day, we want to sit back and want to be part of the No 1 side,” he added. If Australia win the series handsomely, they will go over India to become the world’s No.1 ranked ODI team and if the hosts win they will retain their top spot. Going into the intense con- test against India, both Rixon and team captain George Bailey saw the advantage of having quite a few squad members with the Champi- ons League Twenty20 expo- sure. Rixon, a part of the support staff of CSK as its fielding coach, agreed with his cap- tain, adding the squad still had plenty of work to do to get the better of the ICC World Cup and Champions Trophy holders “We still have got plenty of homework to do but the advantage as George right- fully said, we get to see them regularly now. We actually have more chance combating them,” he said. Rixon said the plus point for his team is that five of the players fig- ured for their respective fran- chises in yesterday's CLT20 final between eventual win- ners and IPL champions Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals. “Coming into a tournament like this, you need perform- ance players. A lot of the Indian players, in fact all of the Indians, would have played in the previous tour- nament so that has got to be an advantage for everyone playing. “We have been fortunate to have five in the final, so to us, we are in a reasonable position as well. End result is, the guys who haven't been playing a lot of cricket, get them upto speed for the remaining, leading upto the T20 and the one-dayers. Once that happens, it's an even contest,” he said. Both Rixon and Bailey rued the absence of Michael Clarke, who was ruled out of the tour due to his back prob- lem. “You take Dhoni out, that probably answers your question,” said Rixon can- didly, while Bailey said, “We would love to have Michael here.” — PTI 16 Sports THE TRIBUNE, CHANDIGARH, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2013 Mizoram enter U-14 Subroto Cup final New Delhi: Govt Chawfi- anga Middle School, Mizo- ram edged out NCC (NER) by an injury-time goal to enter the final of the U-14 category of the 54th Sub- roto Cup. It was heartbreak for NCC right at the end as Ramfangliana (70+2) popped up seconds before the final whistle to punch in a cross. The winners will face-off with Betkuchi High School, Assam in the clash for the title. In the U-17 boys' event, Govt Model School, Chandigarh, thrashed Goa 10-0. Gurki- rat and Anil scored a brace each. Indian School, Oman were handed a 2-0 defeat by St Stanlisus of Bihar.

Tiger Woods leads US to Presidents Cup trophy Columbus: Tiger Woods clinched the Presidents Cup for the third time in a row, leading the Americans to an 18 1/2-15 1/2 victory over the Internationals at Muirfield Village. World number one Woods edged 41st-ranked Richard Sterne of South Africa 1 up to secure the trophy, thwarting an Internationals fightback and boosting the Americans to 8-1-1 in the overall rivalry with their fifth win in a row. "It feels good," Woods said. "It was a tough day, tough condi- tions, rain, wind all around. It was a long week, but it was worth it." Battling nag- ging back spasms over the final five holes, Woods won the par-3 16th with a par, chipped from the rough to inches from the hole at 17 and halved 18 for the vic- tory. —Agencies IN BRIEF SC suggests new panel for IPL fixing probe Dismisses BCCI’s plea for in-house panel; proposes retired Justice Mukul Mudgal’s name to head the team BCCI stays mum on fixing scandal in its annual report Aussies eyeing top spot A series win can see the visitors topple India from No 1 position ‘Retiring from Test made me more emotional’ NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 He has been the finest ambas- sador for India in the tradi- tional form of the game and Rahul Dravid, after calling time on his cricket career, remained true to his first love — Test cricket. “It was (emotional) in some ways. It's when you give up Test cricket, that's when you feel emotional,” Dravid said when asked whether he felt emotional turning up for Rajasthan Royals against Mumbai Indians in the last match of his professional career. “It was a privilege to lead such a bunch. The franchise has gone through a lots of ups and downs. It has been the same group and there was great working environ- ment,” Dravid, who cap- tained Rajasthan Royals to the final of Champions League T20, said. As he has done on many occasions, Dravid did men- tion that the spot-fixing scan- dal involving India interna- tional S Sreesanth was “very disappointing”. “It wasn't an ideal thing to have happened. I don't want to comment specifically but those were extremely chal- lenging times,” Dravid told 'NDTV' in an interview. Dravid felt that the spot-fix- ing incident is a lesson for the cricket establishment that one needs to be “vigilant”. “Look, people who want to corrupt the game are not going to go away. It's a lot about the choices that an individual makes. We have to be vigi- lant.” Dravid gave a logical answer as to why he came in at No 8 during the final last night. “Chasing a target with an asking rate of 11 per over is certainly not my strength at 40 plus,” he laughed. —PTI TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE CHANDIGARH, OCTOBER 7 With power comes great responsibility — make it ‘great arrogance’, actually. That’s what seems to be the case with the BCCI, which clearly operates in complete disregard of public opinion, the other cricket boards or the ICC. If a poll were to be under- taken across the world, the United States is likely to be voted the most divisive, even hated, country in the world. Despite being widely aped and despite its cultural influence all over the world, it is a country disliked for interference in other nations, and for forcing its opinion down the throats of the others. Yet, Rajeev Shukla, the for- mer IPL chairman and the recently named vice-president of the BCCI, seems to take pride in likening the BCCI to the United States. “What the US is to the UN, the BCCI is to the International Cricket Council,” Shukla said in an interview. “The BCCI has earned its reputation and one should appreciate this, rather than criticise.” He's right on one point — the BCCI sure has earned its reputation. Shukla was asked about the censorious tone used by the Supreme Court about the workings of the BCCI. “If the apex court has made any observation, we shall look into it. Since the observation that has come is not elaborate, the BCCI lawyers are unable to respond," he said. "If the top court points out deficiencies, we will definitely correct them,” he said. BCCI is like the US, says Shukla MONEYMATTERS ❚ IPL sponsorship money received in IPL VI is Rs 180 crore compared to Rs 192 crore in IPL V. ❚ Income from IPL-V's Play-Off matches is Rs 6.15 crore while income from IPL-VI's 'Play-Off' is Zero. ❚ Sale of ticket receipts from IPL- VI is Rs 13 crore compared to Rs 18 crore in IPL-V. ❚ Advertisement expenses has gone up to Rs 31 crore in 2012-13 from Rs 11 crore in 2011-12. ❚ Gross IPL receipts from IPL VI was 892 crore compared to Rs 956 crore in IPL-V. ❚ Media Rights income has "marginally" gone up to Rs 556 crore in IPL VI compared to Rs 533 crore in IPL-V ❚ Franchise consideration has gone down to Rs 460 crore in IPL-VI from Rs 613 crore during IPL-V. ❚ Income from bank interest was Rs 102 crore during 2011-12 which came down to Rs 85 crore in 2012-13. ❚ The curent financial year 2013- 14 has a budgeted surplus of Rs 389 crore. ❚ 10) Umpire's and Player's Benevolent Fund was discontinued under recommendations from Working Committee.

The surveillance system was first developed by the Soviet-era KGB, predeces- sor of the FSB special serv- ices, in the mid-1980s and updated in recent years, said prominent security analyst Andrei Soldatov. Dubbed SORM, the sys- tem will give Russian secu- rity services free access to all phone and Internet com- munications at the Olympic Games in February without the providers` knowledge, according to research by Soldatov and his colleague Irina Borogan. Telecom providers are required to pay for the SORM equipment and its installation, but law enforce- ment agencies will be able to wiretap without having to show providers court orders allowing the eavesdropping, the analysts said. “Operators do not know what and when the FSB is monitoring,” Soldatov said. Citing research based on documents published by the Russian government pro- curement agency and other government records, the analysts said the authorities have been installing the sur- veillance devices in the Black Sea resort of Sochi since 2010. Russia has pulled out all the stops to get the subtrop- ic region ready for the Games, spending more than $50 billion in state and cor- porate money on infrastruc- ture improvements includ- ing mobile networks. — PTI GAGAN K TEJA/TNS PATIALA, OCTOBER 7 The Punjab Education Minister and president of the Punjab Kabaddi Association Sikander Singh Maluka has assured that Patiala will be one of the venues of the World Kabaddi Cup. While the Punjab Sports Department had removed Patiala from the final list of venues for this year’s match- es, Maluka said they will certainly be holding a match in Patiala but the venue for the match will be changed. Earlier, the Punjab Government had excluded Patiala, citing low footfall during the third edition of the World Cup as the reason behind the decision. Last year, following the last minute cancellation of the match between the Indian men’s team and Afghanistan on the inaugural day of the World Cup at YPS Stadium, Patiala, more than half of the viewers left the venue when the news spread. However, sources alleged that the decision was com- pletely political. Patiala was being considered for the matches, but the Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal asked them to change the venue since Patiala was a Congress stronghold. Maluka, who is also the Patiala district incharge of SAD, said during last year’s World Cup, the number of people coming to see the matches was less than in any other city and therefore they had not considered Patiala. He said YPS stadi- um usually is unable to draw much crowd because of its location. ‘Russia to spy on Olympic athletes, visitors’ NEW DELHI, OCTOBER 7 Throwing their weight behind an embattled Jwala Gutta, sev- eral former players have described the Badminton Association of India discipli- nary committee’s recommen- dation of life ban on the star doubles player as “ridiculous and harsh”. “It is very harsh decision. I think BAI could have dealt with it in a quieter way, with- out going to the press and defaming her ,” former nation- al champion Arvind Bhat said. “I don’t know exactly what she said during the IBLmatch but whatever it is, life ban rec- ommendation is too harsh. They could have just warned her. Moreover, she is the spokesperson of the Delhi team and as an icon player, she spoke on behalf of her team. It was a team decision.” In a surprise decision, BAI disciplinary committee rec- ommended a life ban on Jwala for trying to stop some players of her franchise, Krrish Delhi Smashers, from playing a match against Banga Beats in the Indian Badminton League. India’s top men’s doubles players K T Rupesh Kumar and Sanave Thomas, who played for Pune Pistons in IBL, also said it was ridiculous and will affect Indian badminton. “It is ridiculous. Life ban is too much. Whatever delay happened, only Jwala can’t suffer for that. It was kind of unfair what happened at the last moment. Anyone in her place would have reacted,” Rupesh said. His men’s doubles partner Sanave Thomas said: “I don’t agree with this recommenda- tion. She is an experienced player, who has performed consistently over the years. Along with V Diju and Ash- wini Ponnappa, she has pulled off so many matches. Life ban will be too harsh.” — PTI Former players support Jwala, call life ban recommendation harsh Patiala likely to be one of the venues WORLD KABADDI CUP Jwala Gutta It is very harsh. I think BAI could have dealt with it in a quieter way and not go to the press and defame her in this way —Arvind Bhat, former national champion “ “ BAI FORMS 3-MEMBER PROBE PANEL The Badminton Association of India has appointed a three-member panel to look into the issue. Asking the panel to submit a report within a month, the BAI said Jwala will not be con- sidered for selection till the reports comes. The three- member committee will issue a show-cause notice to Jwala, seeking her reply within a week," said BAI secretary Vijai Sinha. Panel comprises Anandeshwar Pandey, joint secretary IOA, Deepa Mehta, Luge Federation of India presi- dent and Swati Shukla, a former member of Commonwealth Games Organising Committee. 17 THE TRIBUNE, CHANDIGARH, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2013 MUNICIPAL CORPORATION CHANDIGARH CORRIGENDUM Thetender invitedfor thebelownotedworks videthis officeTender Inquiries mentioned hereby cancelled till further order due to administrative reasons:- Sd/-Executive Engineer, Electrical Division, M.C.

He, however, reiterated that the Third Front would be formed after elections and claimed the next Prime Minister would be from among the alliance partners. “The Third Front formation is not possible now, as differ- ences can crop up among par- ties on ticket distribution and seat sharing,” he told reporters here. Mulayam said all political parties of the proposed alliance would contest poll on their own strength and then get together after the next General Election. He said his party was in touch with CPM leader Prakash Karat and CPI leader AB Bardhan over the Third Front formation after poll and had an understanding on that. “We feel the Third Front government should come to power at the Centre. The country’s next Prime Minister will be a Third Front candi- date,” he said. Mulayam, who has been spearheading the cause of a Third Front government and aspiring for the top post, said neither the BJP nor the Congress would be able to form the government. Asked who would be the Third Front prime ministerial candidate, Mulayam said only one prime ministerial candidate had been announced so far, in an appar- ent reference to BJP’s Narendra Modi. “But, the Third Front candi- date will be the next Prime Minister of the country,” he claimed. CPM general secretary Prakash Karat had recently held a meeting with Mulayam. — PTI COLOMBO, OCTOBER 7 India today sought meaning- ful devolution of power by Sri Lanka and early resumption of dialogue to facilitate "gen- uine reconciliation" in Tamil- inhabited areas of the country. On his first visit here, External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid raised the issue of reconciliation dur- ing his meeting with his Sri Lankan counterpart GL Peiris at the Ministry of External Affairs. During a joint news con- ference with Peiris, he called for “meaningful devolution” of power to provinces, including Tamil- inhabited areas in the north. “India has been consistent in calling for an early politi- cal settlement and national reconciliation through meaningful devolution of powers, so to ensure that all citizens of Sri Lanka, including the Sri Lankan Tamil community, would lead a life marked by equal- ity, justice, dignity and self- respect," Khurshid said. India hopes that the “vision and leadership that resulted in an end to armed conflict and holding of elections to the Northern Province will now be employed to work for gen- uine reconciliation,” he added.— PTI India seeks devolution of power in Lanka’s Tamil areas Third Front not now, only after polls: Mulayam The Third Front formation is not possible now, as differences can crop up among parties on ticket distribution and seat sharing. —Mulayam Yadav, SP chief “ “ Mulayam Singh Yadav in New Delhi on Monday.
