About 100 crorepatis in Rajya Sabha; Rahul Bajaj richest

New Delhi: About 100 Rajya Sabha members have declared their assets worth more than Rupees one crore with independent Parliamentarian from Maharashtra Rahul Bajaj being the richest.

About 100 crorepatis in Rajya Sabha; Rahul Bajaj richest

According to an analysis by an NGO, renowned industrialist Bajaj has declared his movable and immovable assets worth over Rs 300 crore followed by Janta Dal (Secular) MP M A M Ramaswamy (Karnataka) and T Subramani Reddy of Congress (Andhra Pradesh) who have declared assets of more than Rs 278 crore and Rs 272 crore respectively.

Samajwadi Party's Jaya Bachchan from Uttar Pradesh and expelled SP leader Amar Singh have admitted wealth of Rs 215 crore and Rs 79 crore respectively, the data said.

The analysis was done by Association of Democratic Reforms (ADR) and National Election Watch (NEW), an umbrella body of about 1,200 NGOs worldwide, after analysing self-sworn affidavits filed by 219 members at the time of their elections to Rajya Sabha by exercising Right to Information Act.

Why doesn't the IT DEPT.send Notices to such MPs sitting in the RAJYA sabha instead of shooting those Notices u/s 143(1) to honest tax-payers of the salaried class??

The IT Dept.says it was a computer "glitch" that Notices of "deferment of tax" with Penal interest u/s234(c) went to honest Tax-filing public "by mistake"...

Why doesn't the EOW or the IT Dept.'s "Vigilance" haul up these RS MPs or "raid" their offices and residences???

Or is the IT Dept.the WATCH"dogs" OF THE MPs...to keep out the Public from using the RTI Act to nose into their illicit dealings of looting the GOI tijory??

And why is the aam aadmi "subsidising" these MPs who can pay IT much more than the max.30% extracted from the aam aadmi??? SadSmileSad

Robbers loot jewellery shop metres from police chowky

By Mumbai Mirror Bureau
Posted On Sunday, April 11, 2010 at 03:29:17 AM


Four armed robbers rode away with jewellery worth Rs 50 lakh from a jewellery store metres away from a police chowky in Nagpada on Saturday.


According to Nagpada police, on Saturday noon, the first of the four robbers entered Ramdev Jewellers on Shuklaji Street in Nagpada and pretended to examine some jewellery with the intention to buy it. Minutes later, two more men armed with revolvers barged into the store.

An officer with the Nagpada Police Station said, "There were five people in the store - two employees and three relatives of the store owner - and the robbers forced all of them into a toilet and proceeded to ransack the place."

When an employee of an adjacent electronics showroom heard the noises and came over to investigate, the culprits held him at gunpoint and forced him into the toilet too.

Police added that when his employee did not return, the manager of the electronics showroom decided to check himself. When he saw three armed men moving about, he ran back to his shop and called the police. The robbers, however, rushed out of the jewellery store a minute later and fled on two motorbikes. The entire heist was over in 10 minutes.

Nagpada police are probing all angles. The store is run by Mafatlal Purohit, who usually takes jewellery orders on the phone, which was why there were no other customers at the time of the robbery, police said.

"No CCTV cameras are installed in the shop. We have taken descriptions of the accused from the five witnesses and sketches are being prepared. Several people have given us licence plate numbers of the likes, though all of them conflicting," said Sanjay Kadam, Senior PI, Nagpada Police Station.

New discovery may make secret nuclear tests history!The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) has asked 14 life insurers to defy the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI)-imposed ban on selling unit linked insurance policies (ULIP).The turf war between the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) over regulating unit linked insurance policies (ULIPs) seems to have put life insurers between the proverbial devil and the deep sea.Despite government initiatives like debt waiver and higher minimum support prices for their produce, farmers in India struggle to earn a decent living. They do not get a fair deal because of uncertain markets, poor productivity and inability to add crop value.Whereas,Jharkhand government has been planning to bring a legislation to protect farmland from being acquired for industry, state agriculture minister Mathura Prasad Mahto said today.

PlanComm backs strategic sale in sick PSUs for revival!The government had approved Rs 15,254 crore for the 36 sick PSUs over three years, of Rs 4,877 crore has gone to 14 firms. The companies, which have turned the corner by posting net profit since 2007-08, include Bharat Pumps and Compressors, Cement Corp, Heavy Engineering Corp and Andrew Yule.The turnaround has been achieved through change in management strategy, government support and reduction of staff strength through voluntary retirement schemes. The Board for Reconstruction of Public Sector Enterprises (BRPSE) was mandated to devise revival schemes for the state-owned sick PSUs.As more tahn Tree Hundred Loksabha Members are Multi Millionaire and More than half of the Rajya Sabha members are Crorepatis (multi-millionaires) and 17 percent are facing criminal charges according to their own declarations in their affidavits, as says National Election Watch (NEW), an organisation working for electoral reforms, how may you expect that they would go against the Ruling Money Machine Interest!

The CPI-Maoist today warned of more Dantewada-type attacks on security forces if the Centre carried on with the anti-Maoist offensive even as it expressed sympathy for the families of the 76 jawans killed and offered compensation.The Maoists also asked people to support their fight and stop acting as 'informers' to the security forces.In a letter faxed to media houses in Kolkata, the banned organisation said it would carry out more attacks similar to Dantewada and asked the security forces not to take part in operations directed against it.On the other hand, CRPF personnel found in appalling conditions in Dantewada!Days after India witnessed its worst ever Maoist attack in Chhattisgarh's Dantewada district that claimed the lives of 76 CRPF personnel,questions are being raised over the conditions of the paramilitary camps in the region.At the Chintagupha police compound in Dantewada,water trickles out of hand-pumps,forcing policemen to fill up buckets of the precious commodity for their daily needs.The landscape is dotted by makeshift huts made out of scrap metal,branches and thatched roofs where the personnel sleep.

"Else the consequences will be bad for them," the letter warned. The CPI-Maoist expressed sympathy for the aggrieved families of the deceased and said it was ready to compensate them. "We also want people to come out and offer financial aid to them."

On the other hand, the Planning Commission has pitched for strategic sale in sick public sector units to help them find a partner for revival. "We have always said let''s have a strategic sale rather than yet another restructuring .Most of the time these companies say that if you help us revive, you will get more money," Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said at a SCOPE function. "But if you don''t get strategic sale, why do you think it will revive,that keeps delaying the decision," he added.At present, over 20 state-owned companies, including Hindustan Fertilizer Corporation, Indian Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Ltd and Nagaland Pulp and Paper Company, are chronically sick. Ahluwalia said the public sector units should generate resources internally as it would help the government increase its spend on welfare activities.

The country's 30-blue chip companies are likely to post a robust growth in their earnings for the quarter ended March, as increased consumption and domestic demand have helped them increase their revenues.


"The fourth quarter fiscal year 2009-10 earnings performance of India Inc. is all set to go past the Q3 performance, to post even better growth in all parameters," brokerage firm ICICIdirect.com said in a report.

Marketmen expects that the much needed stimulus to the economy played a key role in restoring consumption demand and business and consumer confidence. Looking at the quarterly trends, the shifting engines of growth are becoming more evident.

"They (PSUs) should increasingly get less budgetary support, we need the money for schools, hospitals, building roads and infrastructure.They can generate resources internally," he said.

Standing Conference of Public Enterprises (SCOPE) is an apex professional organisation representing the central government public enterprises. It has also some state enterprises, banks, and other institutions as its members.

ANI reports that Covert nuclear tests may soon become a thing of the past, thanks to pure samples of a telltale gas that could help nuke sniffers.

A global network of monitoring stations continually samples the air for signs of underground nuclear tests.

One thing these stations look for is the radioactive gas xenon-133.

Nuclear explosions produce an excited form called xenon-133m, in which the atomic nucleus is boosted to a higher-energy state.

However, it is not known exactly how sensitive detectors are to this form because until now there has been no way to make pure samples of xenon-133m with which to test them.

Creating pure samples of the gas produced by nuclear tests will make monitoring more reliable.

Now Kari Perdjdrvi of the Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority in Helsinki, Finland, and team have solved the problem, reports the New Scientist.

The researchers placed a cloud of xenon-133 atoms inside a magnetic trap and then jolted it with oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

This pushed out the unexcited form, leaving only the excited form behind.

The work could make nuclear monitoring with air samples more reliable.

However, James Acton of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in Washington DC believes the gas may stay trapped below ground if there are no cracks for it to seep through, making on-site visits - not currently required by international law - a better approach.

The study has appeared in Applied Radiation and Isotopes.

Over 50 percent Rajya Sabha members are Crorepatis!

More than half of the Rajya Sabha members are Crorepatis (multi-millionaires) and 17 percent are facing criminal charges according to their own declarations in their affidavits, says National Election Watch (NEW), an organisation working for electoral reforms.

Besides, there are only nine per cent women MPs in the Upper House, says NEW which has raised serious questions about the intention of political parties vis-a-vis their oft-repeated claims that they want to field common people, who do not have resources and muscle power, and also talk about giving substantial representation to women but fail to do so due to 'electoral compulsions'.

"The analysis done by the organisation on the background of Rajya Sabha MPs is based on the analysis of assets and liabilities detailed in their affidavits at the time of their election," NEW's national coordinator Anil Bairwal told IANS.

Bairwal said a total of 98 Rajya Sabha MPs out of the 183 (54 percent) analysed were Crorepatis (multi-millionaires) as on March 31, 2009. On the other hand, in the current Lok Sabha, 315 out of 543 MPs (58 percent) were Crorepatis.

Bairwal said Rajya Sabha elections and also legislative council elections do not require huge expenses unlike elections to Lok Sabha and the state assemblies. Still, when it comes to fielding candidates for elections to these bodies, the political parties, irrespective of their ideologies, mostly field financially influential persons and also persons with dubious credentials.

Amongst major parties, 65 percent of Congress Rajya Sabha MPs were multi-millionaires, while 53 percent of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Rajya Sabha MPs were in this league.

According to Bairwal, when analysed statewise, the maximum number of Crorepati Rajya Sabha MPs were from UP (17 out of 26 or 65 percent) followed by Maharashtra (13 out of 15 or 87 percent). He said the highest assets - Rs.3 billion - were owned by Rahul Bajaj (independent) from Maharashtra followed by M.A.M. Ramaswamy of the Janata Dal-Secular (Rs.2.7 billion) from Karnataka.

Two of the Rajya Sabha MPs, who had declared zero assets were CPI's D. Raja from Tamil Nadu and CPI-M's Saman Pathak from West Bengal. Amongst MPs with low assets, Abani Roy from West Bengal has Rs.72,000 followed by Brinda Karat from West Bengal with Rs.1.74 lakh.

However, film actress and Rajya Sabha MP Jaya Bachchan had movable and immovable properties worth over Rs.2.1 billion while her family friend Amar Singh's assets were estimated at over Rs.795 million.

Improved economic activity would see companies from the metals, automobiles and oil & gas sectors reporting better- than-expected numbers, while power, telecom, banking, IT and FMCG companies will act as a drag.

"The earnings momentum, which has gathered pace, would accelerate as we move into fiscal year 2011 earnings," Angel Broking added.

IT bellwether Infosys will kickstart the fourth quarter earnings season by announcing its results on April 13.

"The sequential improvement would be modest, while year-on-year, the performance is likely to be robust, aided by an improvement in overall economic activity," ICICIdirect.com said.

Brokerages feel corporate India is reaping the results of the stimulus packages rolled out by the government, which helped domestic demand improved.

"We expect Sensex companies to post earnings growth of 34.5 per cent for Q4, FY'10," Emkay's Research-Institutional Equities Head Ajay Parmar said.

Amongst the Sensex pack, the index heavyweight, Reliance Industries (RIL), is expected to post robust performance, registering 32 per cent yoy and 27 per cent quarter-on-quarter growth on the net profit front, Angel Broking expects.

"For 4Q, FY 2010, while we have estimated net sales of the Sensex companies to increase by around 35.6 per cent yoy, we have estimated net profit to register yoy growth of around 26.4 per cent yoy," Angel Broking said.

BJP terms Centre's amnesty offer as vote bank politics

Bharatiya Janata Party slammed the central government's offer of amnesty to the Kashmiris who had crossed over to Pakistan Occupied Kashmir,and are now willing to surrender and return home,as a tactic to gain votes.Addressing a public meeting in Chennai Saturday,BJP president Nitin Gadkari,said the worsening condition in Kashmir is due to the policies of the Congress led government.

Gadkari also blamed Congress of being laid-back in punishing mastermind of the Parliament attack case,Afzal Guru.

Technology that allows bosses to spy on employees!

A Japanese phone company has come up with a new technology that can track most minimal movement of mobile phone users and beams the information back to HQ.

KDDI Corporation, which has developed the technology, intends to offer the service to clients such as managers, foremen and employment agencies, or whoever may be interested keeping in check the activities of their employees.

"Technically, I think this is an incredibly important innovation," the BBC News quoted Philip Sugai, director of the mobile consumer lab at the International University of Japan, as saying.

He added: "For example, when applied to the issue of telemedicine, or other situations in which remotely monitoring or accessing an individual's personal movements is vital to that service.

"But there will surely be negative consequences when applied to employee tracking or salesforce optimisation."

The new system uses analytical software to detect more complex behaviour, unlike sensor systems.

The software is held on a server back at base, to match patterns of common movements.

Hiroyuki Yokoyama, head of web data research at KKDI's research labs in Tokyo, said: "It's part of our research into a total ubiquitous technology society, and activity recognition is an important part of that.

"Because this technology will make central monitoring possible with workers at several different locations, businesses especially are very interested in using such technology to improve the efficiency of their workers.

"We are now at a stage where we can offer managers a chance to analyse more closely the behaviour of staff."

KDDI is presently in negotiation with a Japanese employment agency that employs contract cleaners and security.

NASA extends Discovery mission

The US space agency NASA Saturday extended by one day space shuttle Discovery's mission at the International Space Station.

The move was made to allow an inspection of Discovery's heat shield while the craft is still docked at the International Space Station.

Discovery is now slated to land at Kennedy Space Centre in Florida April 19 at 8:54 am (1824 IST).

The inspection has been standard procedure since the space shuttle Columbia disintegrated on reentry into the Earth's atmosphere in 2003 after its heat shield was damaged.

The inspection is usually done after the shuttle undocks from the ISS, but problems with the Discovery's system that transmits videos from the shuttle back to Earth prompted NASA to do the check before leaving the ISS.

NASA is scheduled to retire its fleet of ageing space shuttles later this year, with just three more flights after Discovery aimed at transporting big ticket items to the space station. But the agency has indicated that flights could extend into early 2011 if delays are necessary.

Discovery has brought a new ammonia tank for the station's cooling system that astronauts are installing in a series of three spacewalks and an Italian-made equipment carrier. The next spacewalk is to begin early Sunday.

Women seek relationship, men prefer hooking up

Washington, April 8 (IANS) An ever-lasting relationship is what a woman wants, and hence wants to start with dating while men, who value independence, prefer occasional hook ups.

Carolyn Bradshaw from James Madison University in Virginia, US, and colleagues explored the reasons that motivate college men and women to hook up or to date, as well as the perceived relative benefits and costs of the two practices.

Typically, dating follows a predictable pattern whereby the man is active -- he asks the woman to go out with him, organises the date and at the end of it may initiate sexual activity; whereas the woman is reactive -- she waits to be asked out on a date and accepts or rejects the man's sexual overtures.

They know each other or want to get to know one another and there is the prospect of a future relationship. Conversely, a hook up is a casual sexual encounter, which usually occurs between people who are strangers or brief acquaintances.

For instance, two people meet at a party where they have been drinking; they flirt and engage in sexual behaviours from kissing to sexual intercourse, with no commitment to a future relationship.

Bradshaw and team exposed 150 female and 71 male college students from a southern, public American university to a variety of dating and/or hooking up situations, such as when there was potential for a relationship, when their partner had a great personality and when drinking was involved.

Even though men initiated significantly more first dates than women, there was no gender difference in the number of first dates or number of hook-ups. For both men and women, the number of hook ups was nearly double the number of first dates.

Overall, both genders showed a preference for traditional dating over hooking up. However, of those students who strongly preferred traditional dating, there were significantly more women than men (41 percent versus 20 percent).

Of those who showed a strong preference for hooking up, there were far fewer women than men (2 percent versus 17 percent).

However, context mattered: when considering the possibility of a long-term relationship, both women and men preferred dating over hooking up; however, when the possibility of a relationship was not mentioned, men preferred hooking up and women preferred dating.

On the whole, men and women agreed on the benefits and risks of dating and hooking up. However, women seem to want a relationship more than men, says a James Madison release.

They fear, both in dating and hooking up, that they will become emotionally attached to a partner who is not interested in them.

Men seem to value independence more than women. They fear that even in hooking up relationships, which are supposed to be free of commitments, a woman might seek to establish a relationship.

These findings were published in Springer's journal, Sex Roles.

India to seek direct access to Headley under 2005 accord

 India will seek direct access to Pakistani-American terrorist David Headley under a bilateral agreement signed in 2005 and a communication is being sent to the U.S. to allow its investigators to question him.

The draft letter was being examined by Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram after it was prepared by Solicitor General Gopal Subramaniam and officials of National Investigation Agency (NIA), official sources said here.

The NIA has registered a case against Headley and his Pakistani-Canadian accomplice Tahawwur Rana for allegedly conspiring to wage a war against the country and under other sections of Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.

The letter would be sent to the U.S. through diplomatic channels for seeking direct access to Headley as he is wanted in India for conspiring with terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba in carrying out attacks in Mumbai on November 26, 2008 that left over 160 people dead, they said. Headley had pleaded guilty to the charges in a U.S. court at Chicago.

India had signed a Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) with the U.S. in 2001 which was further revised in 2005.

The new provisions enhance the ability of the two countries to pursue their common objective of law enforcement by putting in place a legal mechanism to enable them to provide to each other assistance in connection with the investigation, prosecution, prevention and suppression of crime including those relating to terrorism, narcotics, trafficking, economic and organised crime.

The assistance under the Treaty shall include taking the testimony or statements of persons, providing documents, records and items of evidence, locating or identifying persons or items; serving documents, transferring persons in custody for testimony or other purposes, executing requests for searches and seizures, assistance in proceedings related to seizure and forfeiture of asset, restitution, collection of fines.

The issue of access to Headley will be also raised by India at official level during Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's four-day visit to the United States.

According to American law, the U.S. Department of Justice will have to take permission from the Chicago court, which is hearing Headley's case, about India's request for direct access to him.

Headley, who was arrested by FBI in October, had pleaded guilty to all terror charges before a US court on March 18.

Nitish asks Chidambaram to speak less

New Delhi: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar Saturday had some advise for Home Minister P. Chidambaram: don't speak too much about the government's strategy against Maoists.

I respect him (Chidambaram). But I have an advice that speaking too much is not necessary," Nitish Kumar told the media at the Indian Women's Press Corps (IWPC).

Speaking too much reduces the impact of words, he said. "One should speak only as much as is required by the work at hand."

Chidambaram had courted controversy during his visit to West Bengal last week when he remarked that the "buck should stop at the chief minister's table" on curbing inter-party clashes.

The remark sparked an angry riposte from Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee.

Nitish Kumar said there was no need for Chidambaram to resign over the slaughter of 76 security personnel in Chhattisgarh. "Everybody knows that the prime minister will not accept it (the resignation)."

Earlier, speaking in Puducherry, Chidambaram said he decided to quit because the CRPF came under his charge but that does not mean state governments have no role in tackling the Maoists.

"The resignation was indeed tendered. The Prime Minister has rejected it. The matter is a closed chapter," he told reporters declining to talk further on the issue.

Chidambaram said in the horrific tragedy in Dantewada in Chhattisgarh hit the CRPF whose 74 personnel were killed. "It (CRPF) is under my charge. This tragedy has happened under my watch. Therefore, I said the buck stops at my desk. It does not mean that the state governments have no role. They have a role, they acknowledge it, recognise and according to me, all the state governments are fully aware of this responsibility."



Are we really fighting the Maoists?
Tavleen Singh

Indian Express

Sun, Apr 11 04:47 AM

It is the considered opinion of this Fifth Columnist that every single man who died in Dantewada was worth more to India than all our politicians put together. And yet, if 76 politicians had been murdered, the government would have fallen. Flags would fly at half-mast, there would be days of national mourning. It is the Indian way to honour those who profit from this country and treat those who die for it with disdain.

By the time you read this, the nameless men who died in Dantewada, because of the failures of our political leaders, will have been forgotten. Some news channels attempted feebly to put faces and human stories behind the cold numbers. We know that one was on his way home for a sister's wedding, that another has a son who wants to join the CRPF to avenge his father's murder and that for most of their families, life will change forever because the single breadwinner is now dead. Brought home in a cheap coffin draped with garlands of dying flowers and a wilting Indian flag.

You would have read much learned analysis from many security experts on what went wrong in Dantewada. Most of the analysis I heard on television ended up almost blaming the dead men for what went wrong. They should not have taken the same route, they walked mindlessly into an ambush, they should have been better prepared. A few blamed what happened on intelligence failure and bad training. It did not surprise me that the men who remained behind in the squalid barracks of CRPF Company 62 refused to let TV cameras in. They told an NDTV reporter that they thought the media reports were biased against their fallen comrades.

My own non-expert view is that the crux of the problem in Dantewada, as with all security operations in India, is that we consider the lives of our soldiers and policemen worthless. When 76 CRPF men are killed together, we are forced to pay attention, but we pay almost no attention when Naxalites kill them in smaller contingents of 16, 20 and 30. This they do almost every month. Since November 2004, when the Prime Minister declared that the Naxalites were 'the single biggest security challenge India has faced', more than 1,000 policemen and paramilitaries have been killed. Why have they been allowed to continue being killed in such large numbers?

Why, if the Prime Minister knew that the country was confronted with its worst internal security threat, did he do so little about it? Till 26/11 he gave us a Home Minister who during a terrorist attack in Delhi was busy changing into a fresh pair of clothes. Why was he allowed to stay in his job? Mr Chidambaram inherited a ministry that was defunct. Brought to this state by what he admits have been 'decades of neglect'. The Naxalite problem has been around since the 1960s. Yet, so casual has been the Government of India's approach to our 'worst internal security challenge' that, until Mr Chidambaram took charge, only token efforts were made to stop the Maoists from spreading their malevolent campaign across a huge swathe of central India, now acknowledged as a 'red corridor'.

Until Mr Chidambaram decided to declare war on the Maoists, the Government of India seemed to be as much on their side as a certain ex-novelist who was famous long ago. The Prime Minister owes it to us to explain why he did no more than hold routine meetings in Delhi to discuss the Naxalite problem with chief ministers. Was he unable to act because of pressure from his Leftist friends? The Marxists are no longer the dangerous pressure group they used to be in Dr Manmohan Singh's last tenure, but they were the first ones to berate the Home Minister after the Dantewada attack for not 'understanding the political nuances' of the Naxalite problem.

There are none. What we need to understand is where the strategic mistakes are being made. What we need to understand is why there are so few policemen in Naxalite districts despite the Prime Minister being acutely aware of the seriousness of the problem six years ago. What we need to understand is why men who are putting their lives on the line for India cannot get minimum facilities like clean water, decent food and comfortable, mosquito-free accommodation to sleep in at the end of the day. Why is Malaria endemic in the war zone?

From the ex-novelist's recent, lengthy Naxalite travelogue, we gather that Maoist leaders ensure that their troops live in fine huts in beautiful villages. While those who give their lives to save India from being destroyed by a defunct, violent ideology do so from squalid, mosquito-ridden lodgings without basic amenities. Shame on the Government of India.

Costly intelligence failure

Soli J. Sorabjee


Sun, Apr 11 04:47 AM

The ghastly massacre of over 70 jawans by the Naxals has evoked sharp reactions. One course of action advocated is the use of air power against Naxals, treating them as enemies because they have avowedly declared war on the Indian State. At first blush this course seems logical and justifiable necessitated by recent events and the Naxal's persistent refusal to eschew violence. But knee-jerk reactions should be avoided. Despite their despicable anti-national activities, Naxalites are Indian citizens. Decision to use air power should be taken after thoroughly considering its national and international repercussions as well its implications for civil society. Moreover, the decision must have the strength of unanimity and once taken there should be no division or revision in its implementation in face of public hue and cry.

A glib explanation for this gruesome massacre is intelligence failure. If so, it was a costly, and indeed, a criminal failure. How and why did it happen? Was there a leak? Who was responsible for it? Operations against militants in Kashmir often fail because they are tipped in advance about pending military operations. Most important: What steps have been taken to prevent possible leaks and intelligence failures in future? The government has a moral obligation to give full and frank explanation to the people and in particular to the hapless families of the slain jawans. The need of the hour is not the use of the Air Force, the details of which may be leaked resulting in failure of the operation, but the strengthening of our intelligence and counter-intelligence systems.

Tiresome theatricals

The Shoaib Malik, Ayesha Siddiqui and Sania Mirza l'affaire has now ended with the parties reaching a settlement. Hopefully, we will now be spared front-page headlines in national dailies of these theatricals and also interminable discussions in electronic channels about the bizarre episode. Were there no national issues of interest and concern to our people? It is curious how those who were not affected by the controversy plunged into the fray. True to form, Shiva Sena supremo Bal Thackeray ordained that Sania Mirza should no longer play for India after her marriage to a Pakistani even though she is keen to do so. The Sena, like the Taliban, can dictate the lives of others in a matter as private as marriage. Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Quershi assured Shoaib of all assistance. Apparently he is not aware that there are lawyers in India who would extend full legal assistance to Shoaib, irrespective of his nationality. Indian lawyers have appeared for Pakistani prisoners who had served their full term of imprisonment but were illegally detained by Indian authorities and secured their release by the Supreme Court. A so-called social activist from Haryana filed a complaint before the National Commission for Women in which he admitted that he did not know Ayesha or her family and yet pressed for a probe by the Commission. Probably a book on these histrionics will soon be published and released with fanfare by some eminent personality. And of course, media, the watchdog of democracy, will give it ample coverage. There is no shortage of 'nuts' in our country. We seem to have lost our sense of priorities.

Herb Ellis is no more

My introduction to jazz guitar was through Charlie Christian's hot swinging solos with the Benny Goodman sextet and with Count Basie. Christian died early but his style and playing inspired other guitarists like Herb Ellis who recently died at 88 of Alzheimer's. Ellis had his own distinctive blues infected style. He is, however, best known for his long association with the great pianist Oscar Peterson and bassist Ray Brown. The music of the Peterson trio is a fine blend of melody and harmony and has an ageless quality. Ellis also accompanied Ella Fitzgerald and excelled in his recordings with her. Herb was liked by his friends and fellow musicians for his warm nature and good-heartedness. He is no more with us. One more familiar musical voice has departed. But life and jazz will go on.

Column : How best to tackle the Maoists

Ashok Malik


Sat, Apr 10 03:38 AM

In January 2007, the Bhopal police raided a Maoist sleeper cell in the vicinity of the Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) facility in the city. The cell was disguised as a privately owned ancillary unit. In this garb, it was engaged in the manufacture of fairly sophisticated weaponry. So impressive was the cache that the Indian Ordnance official deputed to help the police team collate the weapons sardonically exclaimed that the Maoists should be invited to help the Indian Army.

Heading the Maoist 'factory' in Bhopal was Chakka Krishna, an engineer from Andhra Pradesh who had earlier worked in a BHEL ancillary unit in Hyderabad. Krishna was a member of the Maoist 'Central Technical Committee', the rebel movement's very own military-industrial complex. His Bhopal operation resembled a regular SME. Machines were acquired from legitimate suppliers as far away as Surat, and then reverse-engineered. These were used to make munitions.

The Bhopal raid also revealed valuable information on the extent of the Maoist network. It helped uncover similar 'technical cells' located amid ancillary units of the steel plant in Rourkela. A police officer who was part of the original investigation admits to musing that if Krishna had put his skills to good use, he may have ended up in a technology firm in Bangalore.

The purpose of this story is not to lament the human capital India has lost to the Maoists or to speculate on the potential Nandan Nilekanis among the Naxalites. It is to emphasise that middle-class India has to open its eyes to the level of the insurgency it faces. The Maoists are neither poverty-stricken tribals with rudimentary arms looted from the local police station, nor are they 'a few hundred boys'—the description offered by Shivraj Patil, the former home minister, in 2004.

The Maoist leadership consists of educated, technically proficient minds who have decided to dismantle the Indian state and the Indian system. It is futile to argue that it all began with some idealistic impulse. Even Adolf Hitler and Osama bin Laden may have had a persuasive idea to start with, but in the long run it didn't matter.

Today, the Maoists have become bandits. They ransack police stations, extort money from businesses—large industrial houses as well as petty, village-level shopkeepers—murder rural folk who don't spontaneously help them and derive logistical support at gun-point. This is not to say that nobody in the interiors of Chhattisgarh or Jharkhand supports the Maoists. Yet, it must be recognised that their popularity is grossly exaggerated and romanticised by Left-liberal intellectuals.

Each time the question of a battle against the Maoists is brought up, fellow travellers respond with a loaded one-word expression: 'development'. They say the answer to Maoism is not the bullet, but development. It is impossible to disagree with this contention. Equally, to agree is to fall into a trap.

For about 30 years from the 1950s, the Indian state paid little attention to the tribal homelands in the interiors of Madhya Pradesh/Chhattisgarh, Bihar/ Jharkhand, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh or West Bengal. With honourable exceptions, state governments deployed the most corrupt officers there. Like the roads department, the tribal affairs department was seen as a source of embezzlement by ministers and their cronies.

This situation gave the Maoists their early impetus. Yet, today it is the Maoists who have a vested interest in not permitting 'development' because it directly threatens their comfort zone. Perhaps the single-largest source of finance for them is stealing social sector programme funds that are increasingly sent to districts and panchayats. The NREG is an example. Such schemes may or may not be efficacious in banishing poverty—that is a separate debate—but they are certainly not meant for the Maoists.

Maoists also have a singular antipathy to roads. They annihilate contractors who come to build roads—interior stretches or parts of highways. In some cases, they blow up a road almost as soon as it is built. A Chhattisgarh government official once explained this phenomenon: "Maoists are strongest where the community has no links with the world outside, and where police jeeps can't easily patrol." Their model is the crazy autarky Enver Hoxha, Mao's one-time friend, created in Albania.

'Development' cannot arrive to the forests of Chhattisgarh in a day. Literacy figures can't be trebled in weeks. Yet, the war-plan the Union home ministry has put together is not fundamentally unsound. It entails combating the Maoists in a concentrated territory and, having gained area domination, using special mechanisms—security related expenditure (SRE), special infrastructure scheme (SIS) and the backward region growth fund—to kick-start the development process.

For instance, in Kanker, to the north of Chhattisgarh's Bastar region, paramilitary success was quickly followed by telephone towers and road building. Intelligence reports suggested the Maoists were determined to hit back, and would probably do so in Dantewada, in south Bastar. On April 6, the warnings came true. It was a setback, but India must press on.

Jobs galore in FY 2010-11: Experts

Sun, Apr 11 05:07 PM

A windfall awaits those looking for lucrative employment avenues with just four sectors --IT, telecom, banking and healthcare -- expected to generate over five lakh jobs by March next year, experts said.

According to experts at various global consulting firms, financial year 2010-11 comes with huge job opportunities across sectors and different hierarchical levels in companies.

"Banking, telecom, IT are the top three sectors where hiring intensity and volumes are significant. The overall hiring for IT & ITes sector is expected to be 1,50,000 professionals for fiscal 2011," Kelly Services' Managing Director Kamal Karanth said.

Both, global consultancy Ernst & Young and workforce solutions provider Kelly Services, expect telecom sector to generate over one lakh jobs this fiscal.

Kelly Services expects healthcare and banking sectors to provide around 2.5 lakh and 40,000 jobs, respectively in FY 11.

"Some other sectors that are likely to lead hiring in 2010 include pharma, FMCG and education as these sectors are facing a talent crunch at present," E&Y partner and national head (People & Organisation) N S Rajan said.

The experts believe that hiring would be also be robust across sectors such as real estate, retail trade sector and manufacturing among others.

"Overall hiring is likely to remain bullish with positive business outlook for most companies. In manufacturing sector including the auto and auto ancillary sectors, around 25 lakh jobs are likely to be created," staffing firm TeamLease VP Rajesh AR said.

Another HR services provider Kenexa's Director (India RPO) Ray Pereira said, "we see a lot of hiring happening in sectors like healthcare, hospitality & travel and real estate.

Considerable hiring is also seen in manufacturing, education and consultancy services."

According to Kelly Services, job seekers in the services, public administration, education, mining and construction, finance, insurance, real estate and the wholesale and retail trade sector, could look forward to the most favorable hiring environment in current fiscal.

RBI may lift CRR, rates by 0.25-0.5%: Bankers

Sun, Apr 11 05:07 PM

Growing concerns about runaway inflation and signs of stable economic recovery may prompt the Reserve Bank to hike its key short-term rates and cash reserve ratio by 0.25-0.5 per cent at its annual monetary policy on April 20, top bankers today said.

The apex bank, which began unwinding its monetary stimulus by upping the CRR (banks' portion of deposits with the RBI for zero interest) by 0.75 per cent in January and policy rates by 0.25 per cent in March, is set to tighten the policy stance further to fight inflation--presently hovering beyond its comfort zone, they said.

Ballooning prices of milk, fruits and pulses pushed up food inflation to 17.7 per cent for the week ended March 27 while the overall inflation that includes variation in prices of food and non-food items, presently stands at 9.89 per cent.

But banks are unlikely to hike their lending rates in the immediate future unless the quantum of increase in RBI's key-rates is significant enough to force them pass on the cost burden to the customer, Oriental Bank of Commerce's Chairman and Managing Director, T Y Prabhu said.

"They (RBI) are likely to hike the rates by anywhere between 0.25-0.5 per cent as the inflation situation warrants monetary action. I do not expect lending rates to go up immediately as the liquidity in the system is enough to absorb even a 0.25 per cent rise in key-rates," Prabhu said.

The buck stops with the nation

Indian Express Edit

Meghnad Desai


Sun, Apr 11 04:47 AM

When Edmund Burke wrote his Reflections on the Revolution in France defending the ancient regime, Tom Paine remarked, 'He pities the plumage but forgets the dying bird'. I thought of this when I saw that the dadas in West Bengal objected to Home Minister P Chidambaram saying the buck should stop at the Chief Minister's desk. Being anti-American, the CPM could not abide the word 'buck'. The dead bodies and the breakdown in law and order in their state does not matter, of course. All that matters is that the Home Minister used an Americanism. If he had used a text of Lenin, that could have been understood.

The Home Minister has now shown that he understands the true meaning of what he was saying. He admits responsibility for what happened in Dantewada. But while he is being honest, he should allow a deeper analysis of the problem before he takes precipitate action. Chidambaram has been doing a fantastic job ever since he took over from Shivraj Patil in those dark days after 26/11. He has put in its place a new framework for counter-terrorism.

Whatever the failures in Mumbai during those days, the nation is unanimous as to whom the enemy is and what needs to be done. But in the case of the Naxals, what India faces is an enemy within. What's more, the political system is disunited on the need to fight the menace. The Trinamool Congress (TMC) has already shown that the enemy of its enemy is its mate. Jharkhand has a Chief Minister who is dealing with the Naxalites on his own account. The Left has many in its ranks locally and nationally who have a sneaking sympathy for the Naxalites since their youthful dreams of a violent revolution are being played out.

It is significant that the BJP, while criticising Chidambaram, has come to his support as it has a sense of national priorities. The UPA, alas, is full of parties which neither care about the nation nor will they stand up for the Congress except when they want patronage. The contradictions of coalition politics which India has avoided facing up to for 20 years are now coming home to roost. The federal arrangements were originally designed with the hope that Congress will rule at the Centre and in all the states. Even when that was true, governance at state level in the BIMARU states was allowed to deteriorate. With Congress having lost its dominance, we have a weak coalition at the Centre and appalling governance in the states. In the old days one could hope the Congress will sort out any large mistakes at the state level. Now that is no longer possible.

Thus it is that police forces at state level have been undermined for decades now. Political interference by each new government has become blatant. Morale is low since honesty and integrity are neither rewarded, nor welcome. We now see that the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) is also not as well-trained a force as politicians assumed.

Thus it is that in a large area of the country, Naxalites have thrived. This is not a recent phenomenon but one which has ebbed and flowed. The Telangana uprisings in 1948 were the precursors of these troubles. Then 20 years later we had Naxalbari. It had its Andhra branch already present in the 1960s. Another 30 years and we are back with the same problems. But now the BIMARU states have proliferated smaller states such as Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh. The many scattered tribes across these areas have not only lost their access to common property but can see mining contractors bribing their way past local politicians.

The way back will be long and arduous. It calls for strong leadership. The Congress is already showing its weakness by carrying useless partners in the UPA who do not subscribe to any common programme, not even national integrity. They are the problem, not the Home Minister.

Only 300 Naxals caused Dantewada massacre

Contradicting reports that over 1000 naxals attacked CRPF jawans in Dantewada, Maoists claim that only 300 cadres were involved in the strike.

The 'Dandakaranya Special Zonal Committee' of the People's Liberation Guerrilla Army (PGLA), has in a statement, claimed that only 300 of its fighters took part in the ambush in Dantewada and not a thousand as believed.

The release signed by Ramanna, a member of the Committee, admitted that eight Naxals were killed in the gunfight. The release claimed the ambush was planned and executed to protest 'Operation Green Hunt'. The Maoist release accused the Centre of "lying" about not involving defence forces in the fight against them, saying Army was already training police and para-military forces in the state in jungle warfare.

Strangely, the organisation expressed its sympathy for the families of the slain security personnel. "We convey our sympathies to the families of the fallen security men. We appeal to the jawans and lower-rung officers of paramilitary forces and the police not to fight the war against people....don't be brutal," it said.

With Dantewada massacre, Maoists on suicidal course

The Maoists may have signed their own death warrant by carrying out the massacre at Dantewada in Chhattisgarh. The very success of the ambush can spell doom for them. No government can accept the brutal gunning down of as many as 76 security personnel at one spot without gearing up for a massive retaliation.

In a way, the episode was like 26/11, which convinced New Delhi of the futility of a dialogue with Pakistan. Similarly, what happened in Dantewada could prove to be a turning point in the government's anti-Maoist strategy.

Before the deaths of so many Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel, the possibility of a ceasefire as well as talks with the Maoists could not have been ruled out, especially because of the pressure from well-meaning, if na?ve, civil libertarians.

Although the rebels had laid down difficult conditions, including the termination of the anti-Maoist Operation Green Hunt and the release of arrested leaders, a dialogue could have been initiated if there was a perceptible fall in the number of violent incidents by the Maoists like the blowing up of railway tracks, transmission towers and rural school and panchayat buildings used for housing policemen.

But now a point of no return has been reached. The reason is that the killing of so many policemen has exposed the government's vulnerability. Since no government can allow such an impression to gain ground, a firming up of the drive against the Maoists, as promised by union Home Secretary G.K. Pillai, is very much on the cards.

This is all the more so because the government may have realised it will lose the support of the all-important middle class if it shows any sign of weakness. Already the belief that it is no longer safe to travel by the prestigious Rajdhani express trains in eastern India has hit the government's credibility.

Thankfully, the entire political class is united, for once, for taking on the Maoists, whose insurgency has been described by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh as the biggest internal security threat in recent years. It isn't only the government's allies and former allies like the Communists who have supported the anti-Maoist offensive, but the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the government's inveterate opponent, has also said it will support whatever measures the government takes against the insurrectionists.

Is the government losing the plot in tackling Maoist insurgency?

A day after hundreds of Maoist rebels trapped and killed 76 Indian security personnel in a heavily mined swathe of jungle in Chhattisgarh, a feeling of shock pervades the national psyche.

Is the government losing the plot in tackling Maoist insurgency?

The nature of the attack, the detailed planning that went into it and the government's reaction thereafter has raised the question that is being debated for some time now.

Is it time to involve the better equipped and better trained armed forces in ongoing anti-insurgency operations?
Home Secretary G.K. Pillai told a television news channel the central forces are on track in reclaiming thousands of acres of land under Maoist control and the decision to get the army into fighting Maoist insurgency is essentially a political one.

The April 6 attack, one of the deadliest in recent times, is seen by experts as retaliation to the government's ongoing operation to root out insurgency in Maoist-hit states.

Manmohan, Obama to discuss nuke terrorism, Headley, Iran

Washington: India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Sunday began a four-day visit to the US to attend the 42-nation Nuclear Security Summit that will focus on nuclear security and his first bilateral meeting with President Barack Obama since they met in November last year.

Manmohan, Obama to discuss nuke terrorism, Headley, Iran

India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh (C) disembarks his plane at Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland, as he arrives in advance of his participation in the nuclear security summit in Washington called by US President Barack Obama.

Manmohan Singh was warmly welcomed at Andrews Air Force base by White House chief of protocol Capricia Marshall. India's ambassador to the US Meera Shankar, along with senior officials, was also present to welcome the prime minister.

Besides the first-ever Nuclear Security Summit, a pet project of Obama designed to secure all loose nuclear material within four years, Manmohan Singh will have a packed schedule of bilateral meetings with the leaders of the US, France and Canada.

There is no sign, however, of any bilateral meeting between Manmohan Singh and Pakistan Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani who has also been invited for the nuclear summit.

Inside Dharavi
Dharavi children

Dharavi (Portuguese spelling Daravi[1] British Anglicised spelling Darravy, Dorrovy) is a slum and administrative ward, over parts of Sion, Bandra, Kurla and Kalina suburbs of Mumbai, India. It is sandwiched between Mahim in the west and Sion in the east,[2] and spread over an area of 175 hectares, or 0.67 square miles. In 1986, the population was estimated at 530,225,[3] but modern Dharavi has a population of between 600,000[4] and over 1 million people,[5] Dharavi is one of the largest slums in Asia,[6][7][8][9][10]

In expensive Mumbai, Dharavi provides a cheap, but illegal, alternative where rents were as low as 4 US dollars per month in 2006.[11] Dharavi exports goods around the world.[12] The total turnover is estimated to be between 500 million US dollars [13] and over 650 million US dollars per year.[11]

Geography

Dharavi is located between Mumbai's two main suburban railway lines, the Western and Central Railways. To its west are Mahim and Bandra, and to the north lies the Mithi River, which empties into the Arabian Sea through the Mahim Creek. To its south and east are Sion and Matunga. Both its location and poor drainage systems make Dharavi particularly vulnerable to floods during the wet season.

History

One of the entrances to Dharavi
Pottery on sale in Dharavi

In the 18th century, Dharavi was an island.[14] In February 1739, Chimnaji Appa attacked Bassein. Before that, he took possession of Dharavi.

The area of present-day Dharavi was predominantly mangrove swamp prior to the late 19th century, inhabited by Koli fishermen.[15] However, the fishing industry disappeared when the swamp areas filled in. A dam at Sion, adjacent to Dharavi, hastened the process of joining separate islands into one long, tapered mass. Thus began the transformation of the island city of Bombay. In the process, the creek dried up, and Dharavi's fishing town was deprived of its traditional sustenance, but the newly drained marshes provided space for new communities to move in. Migrants from Gujarat established a potters' colony, and Maharashtrian tanners belonging to the Charmarkar caste migrated to Dharavi and set up the leather tanning industry. Other artisans, like the embroidery workers from Uttar Pradesh, started the ready-made garments trade.[15]

Bombay's first Tamil school and Dharavi's first school was constructed in 1924.[16]

Dharavi's Co-operative Housing Society was formed in 1960's to uplift the lives of thousands of Slum dwellers by the initiative of Shri.M.V.Duraiswamy,a well known social worker and congress leader of that region. The Dharavi co-operative housing society promoted 338 flats and 97 shops and was named "Dr.Baliga nagar".

Religion

A majority of the residets of dharavi belong to the dalit caste[17] but various other castes and tribes are also present. Minorities include Christians, Muslims and Buddhists.

Economy

In addition to the traditional pottery and textile industries in Dharavi,[15] there is an increasingly large recycling industry, processing recyclable waste from other parts of Mumbai. Financial services is significant; the district has an estimated 15,000 single-room factories.[18]

An urban redevelopment plan is proposed for the Dharavi area, managed by American-trained architect Mukesh Mehta.[15] The plan [19] involves the construction of 30,000,000 square feet (2,800,000 m2) of housing, schools, parks and roads to serve the existing 57,000 families residing in the area, along with 40,000,000 square feet (3,700,000 m2) of residential and commercial space for sale.[20] There has been significant local opposition to the plans, largely because existing residents are due to receive only 225 square feet (20.9 m2) of land each.[15][20] Furthermore, only those families who lived in the area before the year 2000 are slated for resettlement. Concerns have also been raised by residents who fear that some of their small businesses in the "informal" sector may not be relocated under the redevelopment plan.[21] The government has said that it will only legalize and relocate industries that are not "polluting."

Sanitation issues

Dharavi has severe problems with public health, due to the scarcity of toilet facilities, compounded by the flooding during the monsoon season. As of November 2006 there was only one toilet per 1,440 residents in Dharavi.[22] Mahim Creek, a local river, is widely used by local residents for urination and defecation, leading to the spread of contagious disease.[15] The area also suffers from problems with inadequate water supply.[23]
