With today's reshuffle, which was most likely to be the last of National Conference-Congress coalition Government, which still has a little less than two years of its term, all 25 posts in the Council of Ministry have been filled up. Earlier, there had been three vacancies in the Cabinet. While Omar dropped seven Ministers, he inducted 10, thus, filling all slots in the Ministry. Of 25 Ministers including the Chief Minister, 24 were MLAs while NC leader Ajay Sadhotra, a two time MLA from Marh earlier, The tension on Line of Control today brimmed over as India put on hold the visa-onarrival facility for senior citizens of Pakistan and sent back home all its nine hockey players amid tough talk by Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh that it cannot be "business as usual". The Indian action came amidst rising anger among political parties over the barbaric beheading of an Indian soldier and mutilation of the body of another jawan by Pakistan and demands for tough action. In his first public remarks on the issue, the Prime Minister justified the Government's action, saying "after this barbaric act, there cannot be business as ususal with Pakistan". He emphasised that "Those responsible for this crime will have to be brought to book" and JAMMU, Jan 15: In order to further tighten noose around the corrupt elements and to ensure retrieval of money/wealth accumulated through corrupt practices without any major legal hurdles, the State Government has decided to make Prevention of Corruption Act, 2006 more stringent and a was the lone MLC. The previous Ministry had Medical Education Minister RS Chib as lone MLC, who was dropped by the Congress today. Governor NN Vohra has accepted resignations of all seven Ministers while Speaker Mohammad Akbar Lone, who was inducted as a Cabinet Minister, submitted his resignation to Deputy Speaker Sartaj Madni in the afternoon, which has also been accepted. Resignations of two Advisors to Chief Minister- Devender Rana (Political) and Mubarak Gul besides two chairpersons-mushtaq Bukhari, vice chairman, Advisory Board for Development of Pahari Speaking People and Rashpal Singh, vice chairman of Advisory Board for Development of Kissans-were accepted by the Chief Minister. Now, there would be no Advisors to the Chief Minister. The working of the Legislative Assembly including preparations of the budget session would be seen after by Mr Madni till the new Speaker hoped "Pakistan realises this". When pointed out that Pakistan was in a denial mode on the cross-loc attack, Singh said, "we will keep trying". India was to operationalise the long-delayed visa-on- arrival facility to senior citizens of four-member high-level committee headed by Chief Secretary has been constituted to suggest necessary amendments in the Act. Authoritative sources told EXCELSIOR that on the directions of the Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah a four-member committee comprising Administrative Secretaries of Law, General Administration and Home Departments and was elected at the start of the session. Advisor to Chief Minister, Mubarak Gul, a third consecutive time MLA from Iddgah in Srinagar district, was tipped to be the new Speaker. Governor NN Vohra administered the oath of office and secrecy to new Ministers in the sprawling lawns of Raj Bhawan at 4 pm today. The ceremony was among others attended by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, Deputy Chief Minister Tara Chand, AICC (I) general secretary, Incharge J&K, Mohan Prakash, PCC (I) chief Prof Saifud-Din Soz and a number of Cabinet Ministers, legislators and bureaucrats. Six Cabinet Ministers, who were inducted into the Ministry today, included Mohammad Akbar Lone, former Speaker and MLA Sonawari, Choudhary Mohammad Ramzan, MLA Handwara, Ajay Sadhotra, MLC and Saifullah Mir, MLA Kupwara (all from NC), Abdul Mujeed Wani, MLA Doda and GA Mir, MLA Dooru (both from Congress). Pakistan today but quietly put it on hold indefinitely. The facility was to be accorded for those above 65 years crossing the Attari-Wagah border by foot. Government sources said the decision was taken after several agencies sought clarifications on facilities to be offered to the Pakistani citizens. The visa on arrival facility under the new visa agreement between India and Pakistan signed in September 2012 to ease cross-border travel as part of Confidence Building Measures (CBM). No new date has been fixed for operationalisation of the visa on arrival facility to the Pakistani senior citizens. "We will take a decision at an appropriate time," Union Home Secretary R K Singh told. The simmering border tension also spilled over to the sporting arena with a rattled Hockey India Commissioner Vigilance Organization and headed by Chief Secretary was constituted today. The Committee will have detailed review of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 2006 and suggest amendments in its various provisions to make the legislation more rigorous and harsh in order to leave no room for the corrupt Government servants to go scot free and ensure retrieval of money and wealth accumulated through corrupt means, sources said, adding though no timeframe has been fixed for the completion of task by the committee, the panel is likely to come up with set of suggestions within a period of next one month. The amendments to be proposed by the Committee will be placed before the Cabinet and after receiving its nod amendment bill will be tabled in the State Legislature, sources said, adding the possibility of the amendment bill being tabled in the forthcoming Budget Session cannot be ruled out. Three NC legislators were inducted as Ministers of State with Independent charge. They were Sajjad Ahmad Kitchloo, a second time MLA from Kishtwar, Feroz Ahmad Khan, MLA Zanskar in Kargil district and Nazir Ahmad Khan Gurezi, MLA Gurez in Bandipora district. Congress MLA from Banihal Vikar Rasool Wani was the lone Minister of State to be sworn-in today.

After hearing Public Prosecutor for the State whereas Advocate Rahul Singh for the accused persons, Principal Sessions Judge observed, "it is a settled principle of law that prosecution is under an obligation to prove the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable shadow of doubt by leading cogent and unimpeachable evidence. In the present case, prosecution witnesses contradict each other on material points which make their testimony unreliable and there is nonobservance of the provisions of NDPS Act by the investigating agency". Stating that prosecution has failed to prove the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable shadow of doubt, the Court acquitted both the accused of the charges framed against them. banners and placards depicting their demands. The protesting employees demanded all benefits under 6th Pay Commission, social security (pension), implementation of SRO 43 and benefits on Himachal SRTC pattern as promised by Government.

The protesters said that Government should implement the promises made with them and if it failed to do so, they will start a struggle against the Government.

Despite several meetings in the past, the Government has failed to implement the promises and threatened that the megaprotests would be held from 23rd to 25th of this month.

"Consideration of undue sympathy in such case will not only lead to miscarriage of justice but will also undermine the confidence of the public in the efficiency of the criminal justice. It should not leave an impression that the trial was mockery of justice. Taking in to consideration the quantity of the seized poppy straw which is a commercial one it has to be assumed and presumed that not only do the accused indulge in the sale and supply of contraband but they had also the intent to earn money out of it", the Court said.

Govt orders regularization of Lecturers JAMMU, Jan 15: School Education Department has issued regularization orders of Lecturers in the disciplines of English, Philosophy, Geography, Zoology, Persian, Urdu, Computer Sciences, Stenography, Physics, Botany, Chemistry, Geology, Dogri and Sanskrit.

'Hirakh-Saif-ul-Malook': play on life & works of Mian Mohd Baksh staged JAMMU, Jan 15: The performance of Hirakh-Saif-ul- Malook, a docu-drama on the life and works of Mian Mohammad Baksh, ( ) staged here today, was a befitting tribute to the 19th century Pahari poet who is revered by masses for his immortal lyrics that apart from being nuggets of native wisdom also advocate achieving spiritual bliss through love. Organized by Dogri Sanstha in collaboration with University of Jammu, State Advisory Board for the Development of Pahari Speaking People and J&K Academy of Art, Culture and Languages, today's production which emerged out of forty five day workshop, was a multimedia presentation which has been written by Shiv Mehta and directed and designed by Bhupinder Singh. Combining video footage of the Ziarat of Mian Mohammad Baksh at Khari Sharief, near Mirpur in Pak occupied Kashmir, with lilting musical compositions based on the 'baits' -verses of Saif-ul- Malook, the immortal creation of the poet, today's play had two parallel story lines. One which based on Saif-ul-Malook revolves around love story of prince of Egypt with a girl from Gazni and the other is about young woman who gets separated from her lover and is finally united with him. While waiting for her at the Ziarat of Mian Sahib, she comes to know about the life tale of Mian Sahib through the 'mujjavar'. The dramatic re-imagining of Mian Sahib's life and works has once again reiterated the fact that how Mian Sahib's poetry has attained the status of folk lore and is the defining reference of life in general for Paharis, Gujjars, Punjabis and Dograsthe communities living in Duggar. Speaking on the occasion, Prof Lalit Magotra, President Dogri Sanstha, rightly said that the play where characters speak Dogri while the verses are in Pahari\Punjabi is a shining example of our composite culture and brother hood. Shiv Mehta's conception of play in verse form was in consonance with Saif-ul-Malook poetic form while Bhupinder Singh's directorial efforts did succeed in giving an insight into the life and poetic world of the great Pahari poet. Today's mega production included actors Janak Khajuria, Surinder Goel, Kanta Sharma, Tapeshwar Sharma, Poonam Sudan, Pradeep Sharma, Aakash, Rajeev Slathia, Neeraj Magotra, Arun Sharma, Sunil Raja, Paramjit Titu, Tarun Sharma, Sarthak Sharma, Rahul Dogra, Pankaj Verma, Gulshan Dhingra, Inder Pal, Gopal, Ajay Sharma, Hirdyanshu Slathia, Meenakshi Bali, Khushi, Rakesh Kona, Pallavi Kotwal, Simran Jamwal, Pooja Kotwal and Vijay Kapoor.

Army and Police patrolling has been intensified in Sopore areas where a Sarpanch was killed and a Panch was injured in two separate attacks last week. Besides this the patrolling has also been intensified in Pattan areas and in sensitive areas of South Kashmir's Pulwama, Kulgam and Shopian districts. The patrolling has been intensified after security review meeting taken by the Chief Minister Omar Abdullah with the top security officials. The Chief Minister told to security top brass to ensure the sense of security of the Panchs and Sarpanchs in sensitive areas of Kashmir valley. The four Panchs - Sara Begum, Mushtaq Ahmad Gania, Mohammad Rafiq Mir and Firdous Ahmad Bhat - of village Dooru, Sopore while announcing their resignations said that they fear for their lives due to recent militant attacks. The Sarpanch of the Panchayat didn't resign. The Panchs said that he is in Jammu with the entire family while rest of the Pachayat no more exists. Six Sarpanchs and 29 Panchs of six Panchayats of villages of Dangarpora, Brought, Lagripora and Rashidabad in Sopore announced their disassociation with the Panchayats in front of media at Dak Bunglow, Sopore in North Kashmir yesterday. On Sunday 33 Panchs and Sarpanchs of Hardshiva and Yemberzalwari villages of Sopore resigned in panic in front of media in Srinagar. The terrified Panchs and Sarpanchs resigned after the killing of Sarpanch Habibullah Mir of Gooripora Bomai in Sopore area of North Kashmir's Baramulla district on Friday and attack on a woman Panch, Zooni Begam, of village Hardshiva in Sopore on Saturday in which she was critically injured. According to official figures, around 1250 Panchayat members resigned so far since 2012 in Kashmir valley when the militants started targeting them by physically eliminating 4 Panchayat members and carrying out armed assault on over two dozen of Panchayat members and issuing threats to them through posters. The fresh attacks on Panchayat members followed by resignations took place after last month's successful Legislative Council elections in which over Panchs and Sarpanchs voted for two LC Pak violates ceasefire on LoC War is not the only option to resolve dispute with Pakistan: Mayawati BSP chief Mayawati, whose party is extending outside support to the ruling UPA at the Centre, today said her party was opposed to going to war with Pakistan as the only way to resolve any dispute. Attacking the UPA Government for its foreign policy "failures" regarding its neighbouring countries, and increasing violations of ceasefire by Pakistan, she, however, said there was still room for peaceful resolution of dispute. When asked whether she was in favour of suspending sports and cultural ties with Pakistan in the wake of the killing of two Indian soldiers and brutalising of their bodies by their Army during a ceasefire violation on January 8, Ms Mayawati said there was no need of any haste in doing that unless "we reach any DISCLAIMER Daily Excelsior does not take responsibility for the contents of the advertisements (Display/Classified) carried in this newspaper.

According to the sources, Pakistani troops have violated ceasefire on border for four times after yesterday s flag meeting of top military officers of the two countries. Soon after the flag meeting, Pakistani troops opened small arms fire on Charanda area in Uri and Mendhar in Poonch and also fired mortar shells in Balnoi area, the sources informed. Even as the Indian jawans did not respond the low intensity fire from across the border, heavy firing at Mankote in KG sector, where two soldiers were brutally killed by Pakistani troops on January 8, forced the army to retaliate. It led to exchange of fire for around half an hour though there was no loss of life or injury on either side, sources said. Till last reports came, intermittent firing from across the border was still going on. As reported, the Pakistani side in yesterday s flag meeting was in denial mode. Pakistan remained adamant, arrogant and not ready to accept its hostile actions leading to repeated ceasefire violations on the border. decision." War was not the only way to resolve border dispute, she said answering a question at a press conference here. The former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister said the Government's wrong policies were responsible for the present tension on the border. Today the country's borders were not safe as there was continued infiltration of terrorists and frequent violation of ceasefire, which had resulted in the death of two soldiers last week, she said. Tensions between the two countries had escalated following the January 8 incident with New Delhi warning Pakistan of serious consequences of such incident, and there were calls from various quarters, including the Opposition BJP, for retaliation by India.

Court directs police to investigate complaint against Jindal A court here today asked the Delhi Police to investigate the defamation complaint filed against Congress MP Naveen Jindal and 16 others by Zee News Editor Sudhir Chaudhary who had alleged that "false allegations" were levelled against him to tarnish his image. Metropolitan Magistrate Jay Thareja directed the Station House Officer (SHO) of Tuglak Road police station here to probe the role of Jindal and 16 other officials of his firm Jindal Steel and Power Ltd (JSPL) who are named in the complaint filed by Chaudhary. "Keeping in view the fact that 15 out of 17 accused are residing outside the territorial jurisdiction of this court i.e. PS Tuglak Road and the fact that the law laid down in section 202 of the CrPC...It is directed that SHO, PS Tuglak Road (or his deputy), shall conduct an investigation qua the allegations made in the complaint," the court said. It also said the SHO would "investigate the role of each of the respondents qua (relating) to the two cause of actions described in the complaint" and the police "shall file the investigation report within four weeks from today." It also ordered police to seize the minutes of the meetings and other documents of the Broadcast Editors Association (BEA) regarding "termination of the membership of the complainant (Chaudhary) and removal from the post of Treasurer, BEA." The court fixed the matter for further proceedings on February 15. Chaudhary, who filed his complaint through his counsel Vijay Aggarwal, had earlier said Jindal and JSPL officials had made "deliberately false" statements and registered a "false case" against him in the alleged Rs 100-crore extortion bid case and defamed him by levelling allegations against him at a press conference here. Chaudhary and Zee Business Editor Samir Ahluwalia were arrested on November 27, 2012 on a complaint by Jindal's firm that they had demanded Rs 100 crore as an advertising deal for not airing "negative" news reports against JSPL in connection with the coal block allocation scandal. They were granted bail on December 17, 2012 by court in the case in which they have been booked under sections 384 (extortion), 120 B (criminal conspiracy), 420 (cheating) and 511 (attempting to commit offences punishable with imprisonment for life or other imprisonment) of the IPC. The court, in its order, directed the police to "seize the relevant pages of the minute book of JSPL covering the decisions of the management of JSPL referred in the letter dated November 18, 2012 issued by the Company Secretary of JSPL." It also asked the police to seize the video recording of the press conference "allegedly held on October 25, 2012" by Jindal and others either from their office or from any TV news channel. The magistrate also clarified that his order "shall not restrict the SHO, PS Tuglak Road, from conducting a full and through investigation" in the matter. Chaudhary had earlier told the court that "in September 2012, a false case was registered against me at the behest of the respondents (Jindal and others) and they defamed me at different steps for which I have filed the present complaint." In his statement, Chaudhary had said Jindal, along with others, had claimed in the press conference that BEA had removed him from the post of treasurer after considering his statement whereas he has never attended any such meeting. Ahluwalia had also filed a separate criminal defamation complaint against Jindal and others in a court here.

6 Sir, This has reference to the killing of a Sarpanch in Sopore by the militants. The killing of the Sarpanch once again reinforces the belief that the State Government has done nothing substantial to provide security to Sarpanch who defied militant diktats a number of times. As a result, many Sarpanch paid a heavy price for it. Many were killed. As the Government could not provide them security, some of them tendered resignations. The Government as a fire fighting measured assured them that their concerns will be taken care of. The killing of the Panch, however, proves that assurances have remained undressed and mere a rehtoric. The Government should take certain measures to instil a sense of confidence and security among Panchs and Sarpanchs. Only then the dream of Panchayati Raj may fructify in this trouble torn State. Yours etc... Sunil Sharma Udhampur Distance Degree confusion Sir, The long pending confusion of the authenticity of distance degrees has been considerably masked by a cabinet decision.the cabinet has attached authenticity to all the distance degrees awarded by Universities which are UGC recognised/ approved, which have approval from [DEC] Distance Education Council and which have been awarded till 2005-or were under completion in 2005.The rationale behind the decision has been labelled as streamlining of Education Department nay escape route from piles of files containing litigations in the courts of law. The cabinet has decided to hold screening tests for fresh recruitments and some mechanism for promotions to in-service post graduate teachers/masters. The Education Department the students, the teaching fraternity.all have crawled and covered enough distance for the decision on distance degrees and this some mechanism needs to be formulated /defined without loosing more time and not to lead the education set up to crawl again for want of meanings, interpretations, litigations and counter litigations, half hearted implementations, and let the sleeping dogs sleep attitude. The Chief Minister holding the education portfolio is expected to let his decisions see the light of the day lest the department spells again... 'Shayad Unka Aakhri Ho Ye Sitam.. Har Sitam Ham Ye Soch Kay Hum See Gayay. Yours etc... Hira Lal Bhat Durga Nagar Welfare schemes Sir, This has reference to the news item 'Avail maximum benefit from Govt schemes' DE Jan 14. The news item reflects the concern of the Dy Chief Minister towards the welfare of people. However, it may said here that these schemes will not bear fruit unless people are made aware of the schemes floated by the Government from time to time. Since our remote areas are not well connected either through roads or internet, people remain unaware of these schemes. The benefit of these schmes are availed of by the people working in a particular department or the planners who float these schemes. The Government should give much publicity to these schemes by publishing them through newspapers and through media centres in Panchayats. The Government should constitute a committee which may visit villages to ensure that the people there get aware of these schemes. Only then it is possible that benefits may percolate to concerned masses. Yours etc... Dharamvir Singh Reasi Dr. S.Saraswathi The demand for the ouster of the Police Commissioner of Delhi by protestors and some political parties after the gang-rape incident in the heart of the nation's capital has done a great service in drawing the country's attention to the urgency for reforming the police system and organization in India. In this incident, there is not only failure in preventing the crime, but a number of lapses in the enforcement of prescribed rules governing private vehicles, public transport, drivers, etc., due to total systemic failure that cannot be attributed to any particular official. Police is an instrument of the State, and its power is the most important feature distinguishing the State from other associations in a society. However, the modern State is not a police State, but a welfare one where institutions and instruments are created and used for the good of the people. The police is one such institution with enormous powers to help both the Government and the people to carry on a peaceful and orderly life. Therefore, a basic principle governing the police organization is that it should play its role as envisaged in the system, discharge its functions and responsibilities without fear or favour, and adhere to the mandate given to it by law. While it should not apply its coercive power arbitrarily, it should not also remain helplessly inactive when a situation demands immediate action to save life and property in danger. Citizens expect the police to be effective, humane, and responsive in all situations. Today, a strong opinion is expressed from many quarters that all-round reforms are needed in the police system and functioning touching both theory and practice. Created in the mid-19th century by the British Government, the Indian police organization has undergone some reforms from time to time but not to the extent needed or sought. Changing socio-political conditions and development and adoption of new rights and philosophies necessitate changes in the role and strategies of the police. Criminology has changed a lot, introducing new perceptions on crime and punishment. The training of the police personnel has to change accordingly. Instances of police brutalities and custodial violence, and cases of police-criminals nexus are increasingly reported in the media, and have become almost regular column and feature. In India, perhaps due to the image created in the colonial days, the police is unfortunately never treated as "friends of the public", but as a monster to frighten children and make them obey. While efforts are needed to change the negative image of the police, the idea of community policing is now and then mooted as a way of promoting peoplepolice collaboration for better crime prevention. Way back in 2003, the Bureau of Police Research and Development had recommended the creation of "community policing" as a part of normal policing. In the present context of growing cases of atrocities against women, it may be useful to turn to the support of the public in crime prevention and apprehension of criminals. The idea of community policing system became popular in the US since the 80s and has been adopted in Latin American countries. It is an attractive reformatory concept of policing in conformity with the current participatory approach in governance. But, the western system cannot be transplanted wholesale as our needs and purposes and more than that, our preparedness are different. We have to create an Indian model suited to our facilities and conditions. First of all, community policing is a philosophy that promotes organizational strategies that use police-public partnership in policing and adopts problemsolving techniques to address ground situations that give rise to crimes and threaten public safety. In the present Indian conditions, even when the police at the lower levels need to be educated on law, rights, and justice, such a partnership may not be feasible or desirable in many areas. However, this philosophy, which shifts emphasis from statistics to problems, may be adopted to the extent that crimes are to be treated not in isolation and as incidents, but one in which they occur, and crime prevention should address the problems behind the crimes. This aspect of crime prevention can be efficacious if public participation is available to provide the inputs necessary to police functioning. The mode of public participation is not to be restricted to individual participation though it is not ruled out. Police can obtain vast information from groups and organisations including schools, hospitals, temples and other places of worship, commercial places, etc., which attract people with different background. Systematic collection of data about an area and its residents and constant updating can be an essential part of community policing. This will increase police-public contact and communication and lessen routine bureaucratic notings within the police hierarchy. This strategy is likely to transform policing which is presently a reactive force into a proactive one of problem-solving service. Crimes such as drug addiction, female foeticide and infanticide, molestation of women, domestic violence, child labour, bonded labour, possession of bogus ration cards etc., can be better tackled in partnership with the residents of the area of crime. In India, as revealed in several incidents, there is need to protect the public from police excesses and brutalities on the streets and inside police stations. For policing the police, and checking police inaction, delay and unfriendly behaviour, there cannot be a better instrument than people themselves. The primary responsibility of community policing, if it were to emerge in an organised form, will be safeguarding the rights of the public, and preventing the degeneration of law and order in the course of maintaining order by force. To discharge these responsibilities, there must be a mechanism for police-public interaction in a spirit of cooperation and positive approach. A permanent mechanism can conduct discussions and find solutions better than ad hoc committees set up in a crisis situation when matters go out of control. A few experiments of community policing modeled on the concept of Neighbourhood Watch in the US are going on in various States in India under different names. The Friends of Police in Tamil Nadu, Prahari in Assam, Maithri in Andhra Pradesh, Mohalla Committees in Mumbai, Gram Raksha Samitis and Nagar Raksha Samitis in Madhya Pradesh are some models of community police. Helpline for children, and women in distress are operating throughout the country and have to be encouraged, for they can address the root causes of problems that lead to delinquency, disorder, and destitution. Faith in community policing stems from a belief in the integrity and fair-mindedness, common sense, and mature ethical principles held by common people. But, political party politics and caste and religious attachments can undo whatever people can achieve without affiliations. In our country, there are reports of cases of political leaders presiding over mass child marriages, secretly extending support to sati worship and caste segregation, and actively inciting communal clashes while the police remain passive observers. In several States, the police has become the tool of the ruling party blatantly used and misused to favour lawlessness of allies and victimise opponents. Community policing must keep away from politics and party attachments. As VR Krishna Aiyar once observed, human rights will be in peril if we do not humanise the police and institutionalise a system to police the police. It may be worthwhile to promote public participation in policing.---infa WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16, 2013 DAILY EXCELSIOR, JAMMU Excelsior daily Tension on LoC During the summer of 2012, and the beginning of current year, Pakistani troops along the LoC have been indulging in sporadic firing on our forward posts in violation of ceasefire agreement between the two countries signed in In particular, Pakistani violations of the agreement have taken place in Krishna Ghati area in Poonch sector and a few more places along LoC. By and large, Pakistan's selection of strategic points for breach of ceasefire agreement and firing have been made keeping in view the feasibility of infiltration of jihadis into India side. These sites give them some tactical advantage to facilitate infiltration. In that sense, it is a localized affair and not a rule. In other words, prior to Pakistan embarking on the strategy of giving fire cover for infiltration into our side, cease fire agreement between the two sides was holding. There are two reasons for Pakistani Army to escalate tension on the LoC. One is that the terrorist groups in Kashmir are faced with depleting manpower because Kashmiri youth have understood how Pakistan is exploiting them for selfish aggrandizement. So the ISI wants Pakistani jihadis to infiltrate into our part of Kashmir. These jihadis are churned out in the rabidly fanatical religious seminaries in Pakistan. If they are not diverted to Kashmir willy-nilly, they are likely to join the rank and file of home-grown Theo-fascists and thus reinforce the TTP militia. By an irony of fate, once godfathered by Pakistan Army and ISI, the TTP is now poised against its masters and sponsors in the hope of realizing the dream of large Islamic Caliphate about which they have been robustly indoctrinated in the seminaries. The second reason for pushing the jihadis across the LoC is that Pakistan Army and ISI want to convey a message to the civilian regime in Islamabad that Kashmir chapter remains its exclusive domain and the talks going on between the two countries for peaceful resolution of outstanding issues including Kashmir will not be allowed to force a change in the long established policy of the Army in regard to India in general and Kashmir issue in particular. For some time in recent past, Pakistan Army has been feeling that an understanding of sorts is growing between the two Governments. It has the compulsion of sending a message to the civilian Government in Islamabad that it is not prepared to compromise its long standing policy on India in general but Kashmir dispute in particular. In other words, it wants to tell Islamabad regime that its talks with India have to be within the parameters of Army's frame. Intermittent and unprovoked firing on the LoC is the instrument through which Pakistan Army wants to alert the more adventurous political class at the helm of affairs in Islamabad. Apart from the two factors of Army and civilian Government, there has appeared a third stakeholder in Pakistan, a by-product of Pakistan Army and ISI perception of Indian-oriented policy. It is the sponsoring of Theo-fascist militias under different names and varying nomenclatures. They adopted new skin after some of them were banned either by Islamabad regime or by the US or the UN. The civilian as well as military circles have given them the name of "non-state actors", a nomenclature which, on the face of it, would absolve the Government of the responsibility of containing them. But the Army, in its planning, has almost formalized their status so much so that the organizations proudly call themselves as the vanguard of Pakistani offensive arm along her eastern border with India. Indoctrinated in aggressive Theo-fascist ideology to the extent of committing suicide most willingly, these jihadis vow to struggle and strive for their one-point programme of "crush India". Therefore Pakistani troops along the LoC have been given the task of facilitating infiltration of the jihadis who aim at carrying forward anti-india subversion once they plant their foot on Indian soil. Hence we find recurrent violation of cease fire by Pakistani troops along the LoC. Another aspect of escalation of tension along the LoC is growing political and economic instability in Pakistan. The Army would have intervened and thrown out the civilian Government but for a couple of reasons it could not. One is that Pakistani public has somehow lost its traditional trust in the Army first by Army accepting to be a partner of the US-NATO military action against terrorism. The second is the impact of dramatic liquidation of Osama bins Laden and its aftermath. Pakistani people are increasingly feeling that Pakistan Army is not able to ensure the security of the country and its borders because of its dubious policy towards India, Afghanistan, USA and the Islamic world. Thirdly Theo-fascist organizations, once the brain-children of ISI, have become so powerful as to dictate terms to the Government as well as the Army. Anti-American and anti-indian hate fever has made these organizations blind to the fact that Pakistan has the compulsions of maintaining her profile as a responsible member of the Untied Nations and needs to observe compendium of international laws and prove to be a reasonable and genuine State. It has to be noted that Pakistan is increasingly dependent on financial support in the shape of loans and aid from big international financial organizations that are controlled by the rich western countries. Such is the power wielded by these Theo-fascist organizations, that the brutal and barbaric incident of 8th January at Mankot in Mendhar sector of Jammu happened soon after the visit to Muzaffarabad of Hafiz Saeed, the chief of banned al- Dawa wal Irshad, the master-mind behind Mumbai attacks of The barbaric act of Pakistani commandos, actually the activists of her Theo-fascist organizations, is one more example in which we find the so-called frontline of Pakistan Army meaning the jihadi groups throwing a challenge to the regime in Islamabad. Let us, therefore, wait and watch how far the two go on battling each other. The stern warning of the Army chief in this context has come in right earnest. India will mean business in case Islamabad fails to restrain its State or non-state actors from indulging in provocative activities along LoC. Established 1965 Founder Editor S.D. Rohmetra Aarti Kashyap Contrary to general expectations and hope that after high level protests all over the country against the rape and brutalization of a victim in Delhi, with all over condemnation of the heinous act by the six accused, there will at least be considerable decline in cases of rapes and other sexual crimes against women, the rapes of women continue to be committed with impunity. During a last over three weeks, after the Delhi incident, there have been reports of about 100 rapes, attempts at rapes and sexual assaults on women, including minor girls. May be the media has become more active and the cases of rapes and sexual offenses against women are now being reported more widely. Further, encouraged by the all round reaction against the heinous act and over all sympathy with the victim coming forth from all over the country; the female victims of these crimes are now coming forward to lodge complaints to the police in many of the cases of rapes reported during this fortnight, had occurred over a month are even more time ago. But for fear of social stigma attack to the victim and the belief that the police will be non responsive or its response being apathetic, the victims were hesitant to come forward to lodge the complaints. And lately in the wake of the positive response of the police, the judiciary as well as the society as a whole, the victim women and their relatives are encouraged to come forward to lodge the complaints. Yet, it will not be wrong to conclude that all the protests demonstrations and outcry for stringent punishment to the culprits, have so far not borne the desired and expected result. The malady appears to be so deep rooted to be cured by the cosmetic treatment and a short time reaction by the public. It needs thorough surgical operation and long time measures to check the scourge. However, the over all response of the protesting masses and more so of political class has been populist. All are playing to the gallery; instead of analyzing the symptom and causes of the wide spread disease and finding a cure to the same. All attention has been focused on the Delhi gang-rape victim, blatantly ignoring the tragedy and trauma undergone by all other victims of rape. In a populist approach, while Congress Minister Shashi Tharoor has suggested that the new law to be enacted to deal with sexual crimes be named after the Delhi gang-rape victim, BJP has demanded honoring her with the highest civilian recognition of Ashok Chakra. Similarly Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dixit has announced a cash compensation of Rs. 15 lakh to the family of the victim, with a Govt. job to one member of the family. All other victims, the tragedy of some of whom is more poignant and who are much more brutalized, is ignored. This is discriminatory and a populist approach. With growing voices of gender equality and more and more women coming out of four walls of the houses, competing with men folk in all the fields, with good performance, coupled with growing influence of western culture, has given rise to an upheaval and imbalance in the society. The men folk by and large are not adjusting to the new realities, despite lip sympathy being paid by the men folk to empowerment of women. This gender bias is not confined to the males. Even the conservative women folk have been opposing these new trends. It is often found that women are themselves the enemies of their own sex mates, sharply criticizing modernity among the girls and their taking part in the fields which in the past were exclusive domains of men. In several cases of sexual assaults by men on women, the women with conservative thinking have been blaming the women more. This attitude of women generally leads to the women victims of rape and other sexual offences not coming forward to lodge complaints. The remedy lies in bringing a revolutionary change in the mind sets of the society including both men and women. Along with this there is dire need for moral education to be imported to both boys and girls, more so to the former, right from their attaining adulthood, by the parents at home, in schools, colleges and even at work places. Along with modernization of society preserving of old values of life, which preached respect for womanhood. Change attitude towards women Policing The Police Community sharing crucial Col J P Singh, Retd Pakistan is aggressive while India is submissive. Pakistan retaliates while Indian relents. When India pushes the peace process, Pakistan sabotages it. All as usual and the life goes on and so does the dialogue process unabated. Breaching LoC in Mendhar Sector on 8th January to retaliate alleged death of one of their soldier in retaliatory firing and killing two for one is an act of naked aggression. Where is the ceasefire or peace when Pak Army continues firing at will, pushes in Jehadis, breaches LoC and attacks Indian posts? Despite ceasefire agreement of 2003, she continues to push in infiltrators to cerate mayhem in J&K. In 2012 Pakistan violated cease fire 93 times and many a time breached sanctity of LoC by helping militants to sneak in. Despite protests Pakistan denies such violations and invariably puts the blame either on the non State actors or on the Indian establishment. Pak Army started unprovoked firing on Indian positions, as before, in Poonch sector on 6th January When Indian Army retaliated, they came out with a story that Indian soldiers have crossed LoC, attacked a Pakistani post and killed one of their Jawan. This charge was vehemently denied by Indian Army. Indian Army has never violated LoC in the past, nor even during the Kargil War hot chase despite favourable situation at that time. Since the cross LoC firing continued, as per the existing practice, LoC domination was increased to prevent infiltration. While one such patrol of 13 RR was patrolling the area between Chatri and Amrit post on 8th January, it was ambushed by Pakistani commandos who had infiltrated before and lying in wait. In the fire fight two Indian soldiers out of five got killed while two other were wounded. Pak commandos being more in number beheaded the dead soldiers and carried away the head of one of the soldiers and two AK 47 Rifles. This is worst kind of violation of ceasefire agreement and Geneva Convention besides being a heinous crime. This act of aggression is highly provocative and mutilating soldiers is potentially explosive. What is the motive of Pak Army when peace process is gaining momentum? This is most intriguing situation for Indian establishment. Hence a heated debate has started at various levels of Govt, civil society and media. Defence Minister and NSA have briefed the Prime Minister on this serious breach of trust. Various deductions are being drawn. The first most acceptable is, "Pak Army thinks that it can do what it likes with impunity and get away with it all the times". Same has been said by late Capt Kalia's father in this case. The second deduction is that Pakistan is unable to digest return of peace in the Valley which has been showcased by tourism bonanza during this summer. Hence obvious objective is to focus on Kashmir, humiliate Indian Army and terrorise India. Is it fair on the part of Indian govt to brush aside such incidents and explosive provocations like the Mendhar episode any more? It is indeed ironic that the army feels tactically disadvantaged in J&K when overall situation on the LoC is in our favour because area across LoC is Indian territory illegally held by Pakistan. It is ironic again that our geo-strategic attention remains confined to the LoC which has led us to a landlocked mindset. Even after 65 years of accession of J&K to India we are still embroiled in disputed Kashmir which is another monumental irony. Pakistan Army is known to be hawkish in killings. It started this practice against Balouch insurgents, young and old, men and women. It killed their tallest and most popular Baluch leader Nawab Bugti in cold blood. It does not spare its own soldiers who raise a voice against the establishment. Justice Iftikhar Choudhary, the Chief Justice of Pakistan has initiated an enquiry against missing Army Officers and men which speaks volumes of brutalities of Pak Army and ISI in their own organisation. Hence brutalities committed on Capt Kalia's patrol party and two of our soldiers of 13 RR falls in line. Unprecedented influx of tourists, hectic political activity, shooting and screening of Bollywood films in the Valley, progressive trade and transit with PoK and sustaining 'Track II Dialogue' are the signs of return of peace and miserable failure of Pakistan strategy in Kashmir. What had brought the Valley in the vortex of militancy in late 90s was a political and geographical trap laid by Gen Zia Ul Haq. It was his plan to train Kashmiri youths to launch an armed crusade in the Valley after Sheikh Abdullah's death. It remained at a very low key initially. It grew in extent when ISI got involved. Extensive and porous LoC, safe heavens in PoK and monetary support from Arab world were the other catalysts. Logistic support from local secessionists outfits and networking with potential militant outfits attracted foreign militants which destablised Kashmir. History seems to be repeating once again. Pak Army and ISI is again trying to revive networking with potential secessionist elements in the valley to revive Kashmir issue and to sabotage the peace process. Prominent policy / opinion makers in Pakistan were heard saying on the Indian TV channels, as panelists, that Pakistan was least interested in trade and friendship. She was only interested in resolution of Kashmir issue. They said that it was India which was interested in peace, trade and dialogue; not Pakistan. They were cautioning India of consequences of dealing with a nuclear power if Kashmir issue was not resolved soon. They put the blame of killing of Indian soldiers on Kashmiri militants or local civilians. They rather called Indian Army barbaric and associated mass graves to its doings. It was clear form their assertions that there is no chance of peace with Pakistan come what may till Kashmir is given to them. Govt of Pakistan has blamed non State actors for this heinous crime against Indian soldiers. While India continues parroting peace and dialogue, Pakistan on the contrary continues parroting Kashmir issue. What should be Indian response to their policies and strategies? India should retaliate by drone attacks and firepower. Crossing the LoC and raiding Army posts should be considered as the last resort. No more talk be initiated till at least the mutilated head of our soldier and two AK Rifles are returned, action taken on the perpetrators and apologies rendered. We must understand that if Pak Army crosses LoC it is violation of International Border because they enter Indian territory. If Indian Army crosses LoC there is no violation because PoK is Indian territory. Then why is India tolerant of infringement of LoC. Pak Army is a rouge Army. It is not under their Govt control. Pak Army crossed LoC in 1999 and occupied Kargil sector without the knowledge of their Prime Minister Nawaz Sharief. Best way to deal with such Army is to retaliate and humiliate it to the extent that it makes no such incursions again. India humiliated Pakistan in 1971 war, captured 93,000 prisoners after which there was no conflict till (Pak Army seems to have forgotten the fate of 1971). But the nuclear tests by India followed by Pakistan in 1998 heightened the tensions. In an attempt to defuse these tensions, Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee took a bus journey to Lahore in February 1999 and signed Lahore Declaration resolving a peaceful solution to contentious issues. What did we get after that was Kargil. Pak Army covertly infiltrated in the guise of Mujahideens. Don't we know that blue print of Kargil War was prepared by Gen Pervez Musharraf after he was appointed Army chief in October Pak Premier Nawaz Sharif conceded many times that he was kept un informed of Kargil misadventure. Indian Govt may still deal with Pakistan Govt despite their Interior Minister Rehman Malik defending his rogue Army in Capt Kalia's case by apportioning the blame on inclement weather or assault by wild beasts. Pak has violated all diplomatic niceties many a time. Can we trust such puppet Govt of Pakistan. Indian public is outraged on this incidents and asks the Govt, "is Indian soldier a dispensable commodity? Can we trust Pak? Security of Sarpanchs

7 DAILY EXCELSIOR, JAMMU WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16, 2013 (PAGE 7) India can achieve 4% agri growth in : Pranab President Pranab Mukherjee today said the country can achieve the targeted 4 per cent growth in the agriculture sector during the 12th Plan period with the help of better seeds, improved water management practice and balanced use of fertilisers and pesticides, among others. The farm sector needs priority access to power, credit, water and fertilisers, he said at a function to distribute 'Krishi Karman' awards to 18 states. Stating that agriculture is a "challenging" sector, the President said the government should create employment opportunities in other sectors in order to reduce dependence of rural families on agriculture for livelihood. "We can meet the 12th Plan period ( ) agricultural growth target of 4 per cent per annum only through measures such as crop diversification, developing high yielding disease resistant seeds, improvement in water management practices, promotion of balanced use of fertilisers and pesticides," he said. The growth of agriculture Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh today said nuclear power was an essential component of India's energy mix and he will ensure that the safety and livelihoods of people are not jeopardised in its pursuit. "We will ensure that the safety and livelihoods of people are not jeopardised in our pursuit of nuclear power," Singh said at a function to confer lifetime achievement awards on four nuclear scientists. Noting that the 2011 Fukushima incident had raised "justifiable" concerns on atomic energy, Singh said, "Even as we implement our power programme, we will continue to ensure that nuclear power remains wholly safe." He said Parliament was examining a Bill to set up a new Nuclear Safety Regulatory Authority. The Prime Minister said India has enhanced its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and the first Operational Safety Review Team recently visited the Rajasthan Atomic Power Station. "As we pursue our national growth objectives to meet the rising aspirations of our people, the supply of affordable clean and allied sectors during the 11th Plan period ( ) stood at 3.3 per cent. That apart, he said, better and increased use of satellite communication for weather forecast and effective information dissemination to farmers would prevent crop failure. Mukherjee emphasised that farmers need government support for upscaling themselves and "engaging in agriculture for subsistence to taking up agriculture as a commercial venture". "Government would simultaneously need to focus on creation of employment opportunities in other sectors to provide income diversification to rural families who today are dependent for their livelihood solely on unviable land holdings," he said. Mukherjee said it was essential to create infrastructure in rural areas in the form of all-season roads, multimode transportation, quality power supply, transparent markets, thriving financial institutions for better return to farmers. Lauding the record foodgrains production achieved energy will be one of our foremost national challenges and a key priority for our government. Nuclear energy will remain an essential and increasingly important element of our energy mix," he said. Singh said India was in the process of expanding its indigenous nuclear power programme. On the much-delayed Kudankulam nuclear power project, he said: "We will reach a new milestone soon, as the first nuclear reactor with Russian collaboration at Kudankulam starts operating, with the second reactor to follow later in the current year." The Prime Minister said the Department of Atomic Energy was a vital part of the national efforts that led to adjustment of the global nuclear order and reintegration of India into international nuclear commerce for peaceful purposes. "Despite decades of facing international technology denial regimes, our scientists and technologists have worked with unfailing commitment, dedication and skill. It is to their credit that India has now mastered advanced technologies and developed indigenous capabilities across the entire nuclear fuel cycle," he said. Singh said their efforts have not only given the country during last two years, Mukherjee said there is a need to achieve higher output considering rising demand. "Agriculture is a challenging sector which is a critically dependent on climatic factors and availability of natural resources. The challenge is accentuated by the continuously rising pressure of demand for food, fodder, fibre and fuel. There is a greater need today for achieving higher production in an environmentally sustainable manner," he said. The all-round progress in agri and allied sectors is key for holistic rural development in the country, he said. Mukherjee said that the four-pronged strategies adopted in Budget , during his tenure as the finance minister, to propel growth in agri sector have led to positive outcomes. The strategies includes extending green revolution to eastern states and improving credit availability to farmers. "We need to build-on these initiatives to induce further improvements in the agriculture sector," he said.

"I am pleased that DAE is also closely involved in fostering international science and technology cooperation, including through its participation in megascience projects such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor and the Large Hadron Collider," he said. Singh said he was confident that DAE would continue to make valuable contributions to further developing India's capabilities in nuclear energy and related fields. "We should ensure that we continue to attract the best scientific minds among our younger generations to these fields," he said. (PTI) The Prime Minister's Office has declined to share information on recommendations made by the Shunglu Committee, which went into alleged irregularities in 2010 Commonwealth LoC tension: Govt cautions against jingoism Government today cautioned against "jingoism" after the BJP upped the ante on the issue of beheading of an Indian soldier by Pakistani Army along the Line of Control. "Professional Armies respect rules of engagement. Transgressions are surmounted through tactical responses and not driven by jingoism," Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari said on micro-blogging site Twitter. His comments came a day after BJP leader Sushma Swaraj said that if Pakistan does not return the head of martyred soldier Hemraj, India should get at least ten heads from the other side. After visiting Hemraj's family along with party president Nitin Gadkari and leader Rajnath Singh yesterday, Swaraj Facebook may lower your self-control: Study NEW YORK, Jan 15: Facebook and other social networks may promote your selfesteem but they can also lower your self-control both on and offline, US researchers say. The study demonstrates that users who are focused on close friends tend to experience an increase in self-esteem while browsing their social networks, but afterwards these users display less self-control. Greater social network use among this category of users with strong ties to their friends is also associated with individuals having higher body-mass indexes and higher levels of creditcard debt, according to the study. "To our knowledge, this is the first research to show that using online social networks can affect self-control," said researcher Andrew T Stephen from the University of Pittsburgh. "We have demonstrated that using today's most popular social network, Facebook, may have a detrimental affect on people's self-control," Stephen said in a statement. The study includes the results of five separate studies conducted with a total of more than 1,000 US Facebook users. Games projects, saying it was being examined by a Group of Ministers (GoM). The High Level Committee led by former Comptroller and Auditor General V K Shunglu had in March 2011 written to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh suggesting changes in CAG, Controller General of Accounts (CGA), Controller of Accounts under Delhi Government, Central Vigilance Commission and Delhi Development Authority. "The said letter dated March 29, 2011 from V K Shunglu former CAG and Chairman of High Level Committee has been referred to a Group of Ministers... To look into issues relating to the reports of the High Level Committee and consider the views expressed on the findings and recommendations by the concerned ministries or departments," the PMO said in reply to an RTI query filed by PTI. It declined to share information including details of action taken on the HLC's recommendations citing an exemption clause of the transparency law. "In terms of rule 6 (4) of the Government of India (Transaction of Business) Rules, a Group of Ministers is an ad hoc committee of the Cabinet. "As such, the information sought is exempt from disclosure in terms of Section 8(1)(i) of the Right to Information Act," the reply said. The Section bars disclosure of information including cabinet papers including records of deliberations of the Council of Ministers, Secretaries and other officers. A Group of Ministers led by Defence Minister A K Antony is looking into six reports by the HLC pointing out acts of alleged omission and commission by officials and lack of oversight by the government. Besides, the GoM is also examining the recommendations by the HLC on CAG, CVC and other government departments. The term of the GoM, which was constituted in August 2011, has been extended till the completion of its "assigned mandate". When asked whether the had said, "The question is: will we sit without any reaction and engage in a dialogue?... That is why we have said that government should take some tough measures". "There is absolutely no doubt about the fact that the entire country is outraged about the inhuman manner in which our armed forces personnel have been treated. The government has responded to it by not only expressing its outrage but by defining it as some sort of a turning point," Tewari said. He said professional armies respect the rules of engagement and aberration to these rules are surmounted through tactical responses. "The mapping of those tactical responses are best left to professionals. It is advisable that jingoism needs to be avoided," he further said. (PTI) In the researchers' initial study, participants completed surveys about how closely they're connected to friends on Facebook. They were then split into two groups: one group that wrote about the experience of browsing Facebook and another group that actually browsed Facebook. Both groups then completed a self-esteem survey. The participants with weak ties to Facebook friends did not experience an increase in selfesteem, but those with strong ties to friends had an enhanced sense of self-esteem. Second study evaluated why Facebook users with strong ties to friends were more likely to experience an increase in selfesteem. The researchers concluded that browsing Facebook only increased participants' selfesteem when they were focused on the information they were presenting to others. "We find that people experience greater self-esteem when they focus on the image they are presenting to strong ties in their social networks," said Keith Wilcox from the Columbia Business School. (PTI) PMO declines info on Shunglu's recommendation on CAG, CVC Government was considering to make CAG a multi-member body and give greater autonomy to Chief Technical Examination Wing of the CVC, the PMO declined the details saying information regarding future course of action cannot be given under the RTI Act. "As per Section 2 (f) of the Right to Information Act, 2005, only information which is available in material form can be accessed. "Information regarding the future course of action does not constitute information that can be accessed under the Act," the PMO said in the RTI reply. The Shunglu Committee had suggested structural changes in CAG by making it a multi-member body. (PTI) Rana's friendship with Headley over: Lawyer WASHINGTON, Jan 15: David Headley, who was involved in the Mumbai terror attack, was a liar and ditched his school time pal Tahawwur Rana, the Pakistani-Canadian's attorney told a Chicago court today, claiming that their friendship was over and they would never meet again. Their "friendship is over. The two individuals will never communicate or see each other again, either in prison or outside," Rana's attorney Patrick W Blegen told a Chicago court, ahead of his scheduled sentencing on January 17. Found guilty of providing material support to LeT and plotting terrorist attack on a Danish newspaper, 52-year-old Rana now faces a maximum of 30 years of imprisonment. "But for his friendship with David Headley, Rana would never have been so much as suspected of involvement in any sort of violent activity, let alone face sentencing following a conviction for providing material support," Blegan wrote to the court as he sought lenient sentencing for his client. "Through cross-examination he (Headley) was exposed as a liar, a thief, and a master manipulator. It became readily apparent during his testimony that he lied to, manipulated, and hid information from his family, including his two wives, multiple branches of the United States government, terrorist organizations, the Pakistani ISI, and Rana," he said. Rana did not become Headley's friend because the two met as adults and found that they had common interests. Rather, the two met as boys at the Hasan Abdal Cadet College in Pakistan, a strict, high level boarding school where boys from different backgrounds were thrown together. Headley was gregarious, funny, and often in trouble. Rana was studious and followed the rules. Nevertheless, the two formed a bond based on separation from their families and the sharing of a common dialect, Blegan said. Given that Rana has never been involved with anything criminal before, and that he was never directly involved with the terrorist groups here, or even supportive of terrorist beliefs, the risk that Rana will ever be involved in criminal behavior in the future is non-existent, Blegan argued. "Quite simply, had Headley and Rana never attended the same boyhood school, Rana would not be before this Court today. While this does not excuse his convictions, it does make clear that a lengthy term of incarceration is unnecessary," Blegan said, adding Rana's continued friendship and loyalty to Headley ultimately led to his downfall. Through his attorney, Rana also questioned the US government's decision not to arrest the two wives of Headley, his brother and uncle. "To this day, Shazia Gilani has not been arrested or charged with any provision of material support. Nor have Headley's brother or uncle been charged," he said. Referring to the court proceedings and the federal grand jury trial in 2011, Blegan said that there was substantial testimony at trial that Headley's own wife, Shazia, was aware of his involvement in the Mumbai attack and the Denmark plot, she congratulated him as the attacks in Mumbai were occurring, she assisted him in arranging travel with regard to the Denmark plot and she was proud of her husband's actions. In order to avoid an unwarranted sentencing disparity between Rana and other individuals who have been involved in such crimes, the court should be lenient while deciding on his sentencing, he noted. "In comparison to those other necessary roles, as well was the activities carried out by the codefendants to the attack, Rana's provision of business cards, booking travel on one occasion, and responding to a single is as minimal a role as one could imagine," Blegan said. Defending his client, Blegan in his 48-page submission said Rana just provided a business card to Headley, sent an purporting to be Headley, and arranged travel for him. "He had no plans to personally wage jihad, never discussed harming Americans or American soldiers, and as the MILITARY ENGINEER SERVICES evidence showed, was kept almost largely about the nature of the Jyllands-Posten plot, unaware of even its code name," he said. "Rana's limited involvement, and complete unawareness of even the code name for the project demonstrate a significant lack of knowledge or understanding of the scope and structure of the enterprise and the activities of others. Furthermore, Rana is easily the least culpable of all the members of the plot, including even uncharged co-conspirators such as Headley's two wives, Shazia and Faiza, his uncle Saulat, and his brother Hamza," he said. In the footnote, Blegan writes that testimony elicited at trial showed that Shazia was aware not only of the Denmark plot, but she had prior knowledge of Headley's involvement in the Mumbai attack and even sent him congratulatory s in code as the attack occurred. "Headley's second wife Faiza traveled to Mumbai with Headley, was aware of the plan in Denmark, and allowed Headley to attempt to enlist one of her brothers to help obtain guns for use in the Denmark plot," he argued. "Headley's uncle, Saulat, actually traveled to the tribal areas of Pakistan to retrieve messages from Ilyas Kashmiri for Headley. Hamza was involved in other criminal activity with Headley, including a planned kidnapping. Hamza also facilitated communication between Pasha and Headley and was given one of the souvenir hats by Headley," Blegan argued. "Given his comparative lack of knowledge, and limited involvement, Rana is clearly among the least culpable," he said.

In the previous Ministry, RS Chib of Congress MoS. A couple of months ago, all Congress legislators from Doda belt had boycotted the party meet Speaker. Yesterday, Omar had obtained resignations of all 10 Ministers (10 of Cabinet rank and two MoS) LoC tension: PM talks tough, visa facility put on hold deciding to send back all the nine Pakistani players taking part in its high-profile league. With an apparent nudge from the Government and in the midst of threatened protests by rightwing elements, Hockey India took the decision to send back the Pakistani players considering the "extra-ordinary circumstances". "After discussion with all the stakeholders, the Hockey India and Pakistan Hockey Federation have mutually decided to send them (Pakistan players) back due to an extra-ordinary situation which has arisen," Hockey India secretary general Narinder Batra told reporters here. Cricket was also not spared. Fearing trouble due to Pakistani players' presence in the upcoming Women's World Cup in the city, the BCCI has left it on the International Cricket Council to take a final call on the venues for the team from across the border. The matter was discussed at the Board's all-powerful Working Committee and it was decided to convey to the ICC the situation prevailing in the country. BCCI President N Srinivasan said the issue was now for the ICC to decide. The Prime Minister, who was responding to reporters' questions here at the Army Day reception hosted by Army chief Gen Bikram Singh, refused to discuss options vis-a-vis Pakistan when asked about it. External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid said India has taken a "very firm position" on the beheading issue with Pakistan as the act is "totally unacceptable and barbaric". Referring to yesterday's Flag Meeting between India and Pakistan on the LoC, he said, "we may not be happy with the outcome but the process is still on." He indicated that the incident would have impact on the bilateral engagement with Pakistan although there would not be total freeze. The incident would be factored in while scheduling meetings etc, the External Affairs Minister said. On the Government's decision to put visa-on-arrival on hold, Khurshid said it has not been called off but only deferred. The Government also nominated Radhay Sham Sharma, NC MLA from Nowshera as the Vice Chairman of Advisory Board for the Development of Kissans in the State. He replaced "Nobody has utilised it as yet," he added. Asked whether India has set any timeline for Pakistan to act, Khurshid said, "there is no timeline. But we are actually pressing (Pakistan) very hard." (PTI) Meanwhile, India demanded punishment for those responsible for the barbaric killing of two Indian soldiers by Pakistanis along the Line of Control, insisting that it was extremely determined and serious on this and that ties would not remain unaffected. Shortly after the Prime Minister s tough comments that those responsible for this crime will have to be brought to book and hoped Pakistan realises this, External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid read out an official statement, threatening that it should not be felt that brazen denial by Pakistan on this incident will be ignored and that bilateral relations could be unaffected. I think specifics of what might be necessary or found useful are decisions that will be taken as we move forward. At present, we feel that it is important that convergence of similar point of view on behalf of the Government reflects the large section of our public opinion. Let it be known to everyone here and across the border that we are extremely determined and serious in this concern of ours and we have resorted to all such instruments and all such methods that are available to us at this time, Khurshid said when asked about what tangibles were India looking at from Pakistan. It should not be felt that the brazen denial and the lack of a proper response from the government of Pakistan to our repeated demarches on this incident will be ignored and that bilateral relations could be unaffected or that there will be business as usual. Such actions by the Pakistan Army, which are in contravention of all norms of international conduct, not only constitute a grave provocation but lead us to draw appropriate conclusions about Pakistan s seriousness in pursuing normalisation of relations with India, the statement said. (PTI) Kafeel, Sharma nominated Vice-Chairmen NC MLA from Kalakote, Rashpal Singh, who has resigned. Both of them would also have the status of Minister of State, official sources said. besides two Advisors and three chairpersons of Commissions/Board. Of them, Omar accepted resignations of six Ministers, both of his Advisors and two chairpersons of the Boards. All six Ministers, two Advisors and two chairpersons of the Boards, whose resignations have been accepted, have been assigned important posts in the organizational structure of the National Conference. Industries and Commerce Minister Surjit Singh Slathia and "The setting up of high-level committee to suggest amendments in the Prevention of Corruption Act, 2006 is the follow up of the directions issued by State High Court in a case titled Mohammad Amin Beigh Versus State and Others on July 9, 2012", sources said while disclosing that in the case Justice Muzaffar Hussain Attar had directed the State Government to take steps for amending the Prevention of Corruption Act or make new laws for retrieving the money/wealth and for confiscating properties which have been accumulated through corrupt practices. In response to the High Court directions, the Chief Secretary filed an affidavit mentioning that a committee to suggest on the amendments in the Prevention of Corruption Act would be constituted shortly. However, the High Court in its last order hoped that committee would be constituted within a period of two weeks and it would complete exercise within a period of one month from the date of its constitution, sources said. Responding to a question, sources said, "there are no flaws in the existing Prevention of Higher Education Minister Abdul Gani Malik were the only Ministers of NC in Jammu region, both of whom had resigned yesterday and were dropped from the Cabinet. In their places, the NC brought in Ajay Sadhotra and Sajjad Ahmad Kitchloo. In Kargil, the NC inducted Feroz Ahmad Khan from Zanskar as MoS with Independent charge in place of Qamar Ali Akhoon, MLA Kargil, who held the charge of CAPD and Transport in the Ministry. From Kashmir Valley, the NC has dropped Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi, Cabinet Minister for Animal and Sheep Husbandry and two MoS Nasir Aslam Wani and Javaid Ahmad Dar and brought in Mohammad Akbar Lone, Choudhary Mohammad Ramzan, Saifullah Mir and Nazir Gurezi. The Congress, on the other, dropped Medical Education Minister RS Chib from Jammu region and brought two faces from erstwhile Doda district including Mujeed Wani and Vikar Rasool besides GA Mir from Kashmir. All three Congress MLAs from Jammu district are Cabinet Ministers including Tara Chand, Sham Lal Sharma and Raman Bhalla. Sources said Gurez, Zanskar and Banihal have got representation in the Council of Ministry for the first time. As per the Constitutional provisions in Jammu and Kashmir, the State can have a maximum of 25 Ministers (20 per cent of total strength of both Houses of the Legislature). In Parliament and Assemblies, the maximum strength of the Ministry is confined to 15 per cent of total strength of the Lok Sabha and Assemblies. The expansion in the Council of Ministry was effected after nearly three and a half years. The last reshuffle had taken place on July 12, 2009 with the induction of 13 Ministers, eight of Cabinet rank and five MoS with two of them Aijaz Khan and Dr Manohar Lal Sharma getting Independent charge. Six Ministers each were sworn in from NC and Congress and one from DPN then. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah along with nine Ministers had taken oath on January 5, Of 10 Ministers including the CM sworn-in that day, five each belonged to NC and Congress. The July reshuffle had taken strength of the Council of Ministry including the CM to 23 with two vacancies-one each of NC and Congress. However, after the removal of Mr Saroori on August 24, 2010, the strength of the Ministry had come down to 22 taking total vacancies to three and Singh briefs President Rashtrapati Bhawan here. The meeting lasted for nearly an hour, the spokesperson said. Though the spokesperson refused to say what was discussed at the meeting, sources said the main subject of discussion was the recent incident of barbaric beheading of an Indian soldier in Poonch recently, which has led to escalation of tensions between India and Pakistan. The meeting came even as the Prime Minister today categorically asserted that business with Pakistan could not be as usual after the barbaric beheading of an Indian soldier in Poonch. Talking to reporters at an Army Day function, Dr Singh, in a strong message to Islamabad, said perpetrators of the crime had to be brought to book and " I hope Pakistan realises this." On being asked that Pakistan was in denial mode regarding the incident, the Prime Minister said," We will keep trying." (UNI) Govt to make Prevention of Corruption Act more stringent Corruption Act and the exercise set in motion with the constitution of high-level committee is aimed at making the law more stringent to tackle corruption, which has afflicted the every organ of the society, has become mother of all evils and is the serious most challenges being faced by the society". Chief Secretary, who is the head of the high-level committee constituted to suggest amendments in the Prevention of Corruption Act, 2006, recently directed the State Vigilance Organization to increase the pace of investigation and bring out department wise patterns of misconduct/corruption for effective supervision. He also laid emphasis on streamlining the process of vigilance clearances and the pace and manner of the departmental inquiries being conducted by various departments. The head of bureaucracy also reviewed the department wise status of corruption cases and the performance of State Vigilance Organization. At present, a total of 507 cases are pending trial in various courts of Anti-Corruption in the State whereas 131 cases were pending investigation till date. Soldiers sacrifice won t go waste, Pak to get appropriate reply: Parnaik that side of the LoC, the GOC-in-C said there was no mass movement of troops on that side of the LoC but on few occasions recently, some troops' mobilization in certain area was seen there. "On our side there is sufficient deployment of troops at the places where they are needed but as such after this incident of provocation there is no escalation in troops deployment.'' No doubt their act is highly provocative and they have shown arrogance and rigid behaviour during flag meeting at Chakan-Da-Bagh yesterday but we will not act in haste and anger. Field commanders have been directed to respond appropriately in case of any ceasefire violations, provocation or otherwise. This behaviour shows frustration among the Pak cadre as they are unable to get the response from this side and good results from their militant cadre operating here to create disturbances. The aim of Pakistani troops is also to give supporting fire to the militants for securing their infiltration into this side and keep the LoC volatile as it serves their purpose. Replying to another question, Lt Gen Parnaik said nearly 2500 ultras are being trained in around 43 training camps in Pakistan and in Pak occupied Kashmir as per intelligence inputs available. Moreover, around armed militants are waiting to cross over to this side at the launching pads closer to the LoC in Rajouri, Poonch and Uri sectors. Pakistan's ISI is also planning to divert terrorists of Tehreek-e-Taliban to this side to further disturb the peace here but that outfit has its interests along western borders of Pakistan and Afghanistan. While referring to the Brigade Commander level flag meeting between India and Pakistan at Chakan-Da-Bagh LoC on Monday, Northern Army Commander said Pakistan still remained adamant, arrogant and not ready to accept anything. ``We told them we will continue to respect ceasefire but not if we are provoked. Pakistan is always on denial mode. It always fabricated things and denied having killed our soldiers and beheaded one. They even denied killings and having snatched weapons and expressed ignorance over the matter.'' Lt Gen Parnaik further said during flag meeting Indian Officer vehemently protested the beheading of an Indian soldier and also showed photographs of landmines placed by Pakistani troops on the forward area inside the Indian territory. "We accused them of carrying out the barbaric killing, and asked that head of the soldier (L/Nk Hemraj) be returned. We also drew their attention towards the frequent firing by their troops, violating the agreement. Pakistani Brigadier who was identified as Faizal, read out from a prepared text and denied everything. The text which he read was total denial of India's charges. It was rigid. The allegations that Indian troops killed their two soldiers at a post near Hajipir in Uri sector on January 6 after violating LoC, which is total a bundle of lies. He said there was firing from Pak side on the intervening night of January 5 and 6 and Indian troops retaliated. There was no violation of LoC from the Indian side. Moreover, the post which they claim is at the height and Indian posts are under their domination at Charunda village of Uri. He said Pakistani soldiers executed operation in Mendhar Pak SC orders arrest of PM 62-year-old Ashraf, who became Prime Minister after the exit of Yousuf Raza Gilani in June last year, has been accused of receiving kickbacks and commission in the Rental Power Projects (RPPs) case as federal Minister for water and power. Gilani had to quit in the midst of a raging battle with the Supreme court over his refusal to write to Swiss authorities to reopen graft cases against President Asif Ali Zardari there. After Ashraf assumed power, the Government wrote to Swiss authorities. It is not clear as to what will be the political fallout of the Supreme Court's order against Ashraf as this is probably the first case of an incumbent Prime Minister being ordered to be arrested in a corruption case. It remains to be seen whether the ruling PPP will elect a new leader to replace Ashraf. In March last year, the Supreme Court had declared all contracts signed by the Government for "rental power plants" as illegal and directed authorities to take legal action against those responsible for clearing the projects, including Ashraf. The National Accountability Bureau (NAB), the country's main anti-corruption agency, had so far refused to act on the court's directive. During today's hearing, the bench issued a notice for contempt of court to NAB chief Fasih Bukhari. Angered by revelations that two officers investigating the corruption in power projects had been transferred, the three-judge apex court bench led by Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry directed NAB to arrest Ashraf and over 20 other suspects within 24 hours. The judges were particularly angered by revelations that orders were issued for transferring the two NAB officials on the false ground that the apex court was unhappy with their performance. Legal experts pointed out that the apex court had ordered the arrest of Ashraf even though he had not been convicted for corruption in the power projects, and this immediately sparked speculation that the judiciary's action was in some way linked to Qadri's efforts to remove the Government. Tens of thousands of Qadri's supporters who gathered at a square near Parliament here erupted in cheers as the cleric announced the apex court had ordered the arrest of Ashraf. Participants of his 'long march' chanted "Long Live Supreme Court" when Qadri informed them of the court's order. Addressing his supporters early this morning, Qadri had demanded that the Government quit and dissolve the national and provincial assemblies. Qadri had referred to the President and Prime Minister as the "ex-president and ex-prime Minister" during his speech at 2.30 am, triggering speculation that he was in league with elements working to remove the Government. Ashraf was Power Minister when contracts were signed for several rental power projects, which were part of the PPP-led Government's strategy to overcome a crippling energy shortage. Though he was dropped during a Cabinet reshuffle in 2011, Ashraf remained close to President Zardari. The apex court began investigating the rental power plants in 2009 following a complaint of corruption from PML-Q parliamentarian Makhdoom Faisal Saleh Hayat. The court had directed the NAB to take action against all Government functionaries involved in clearing the power projects, including Ministers who held the power portfolio since 2006 and officials of state-run power utilities who derived financial benefits from the contracts. Ashraf was given the title of 'Raja Rental' after he was accused of receiving kickbacks in the rental power projects. He was also accused of buying property in London from money earned through corruption in various scams, local media said. (PTI) NSA briefs BJP leaders Upping the ante on the incident, Swaraj had yesterday said that "If Pakistan does not return the head of martyred soldier Hemraj, India should get at least ten heads from the other side". The NSA briefed Swaraj and Jaitley over the entire gamut of developments along the LoC where tension prevails after two Indian soldiers were killed in an attack by Pakistani soldiers on January 8. Sources said Singh had yesterday told Jaitley, Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha and Swaraj, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, that nothing is being done which could not be communicated to the Opposition leaders. He said the Opposition would be kept in loop over the situation and appealed to them that the issue should not be politicised. The Prime Minister had reached out to the Opposition leaders on a day when Army Chief Gen Bikram Singh talked tough and warned Pakistan that India reserves the right to retaliate at the "time and place" of its choosing. The Army chief termed as "most unpardonable" and "unacceptable" the beheading of Hemraj. The Government earlier today cautioned against "jingoism" with Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari maintaining "professional Armies respect rules of engagement. Transgressions are surmounted through tactical responses and not driven by jingoism". In an apparent disapproval of BJP upping the ante on the issue, Tewari also said, "the mapping of those tactical responses are best left to professionals. It is advisable that jingoism needs to be avoided". (PTI) killing two soldiers on January 8 just after two days of this incident. Such operation requires good preparation at least for two weeks. It indicates that their operation was pre-planned and used commandos to intrude into this side of LoC and execute operation. It is worthwhile to mention here that just within 12 hours of flag meeting, Pakistan indulged in ceasefire violations at three places including Balnoi, Mendhar and Uri along LoC. On Siachen glacier, the GOC-in-C said, "Siachen glacier is strategically an important area for us. On the western side of the glacier, Pakistani troops are present in Gilgit- Baltistan and on other side there is Karakoram highway and on eastern side Departments respectively. Minister of State Aijaz Ahmad Khan, Congress MLA from Gool has been assigned the Independent charge of Revenue, Relief and Rehabilitation, which had earlier been held by Cabinet Minister Raman Bhalla. Sajjad Ahmad Kitchloo, Minister of State has been allocated Independent charge of Industries and Commerce, a Department earlier held by his party colleague, Surjit Singh Slathia. In addition, he would be MoS Home, R&B, Mechanical Engineering, Housing and Urban Development, Tourism and Culture. Minister of State Shabir Ahmad Khan, Congress MLA from Rajouri has been given Independent charge of Health, which was earlier held by his party colleague, Sham Lal Sharma. Congress MLA from Billawar and MoS Dr Manohar Lal Sharma retained his portfolio of Fisheries, Cooperative, Printing, Stationery and Elections as Independent charge and MoS of Finance and Planning, Higher Education, Forests, Environment and there is Akasai Chin. There is no risk on the eastern side but on western side it is there. Replying to another question, Northern Army Commander said there is no threat from China but it is there from Pakistani. We can not trust them and vacate Glacier. They propose for talks over glacier but when occasion comes, they do not accept the conditions. So, there is no point to talk on demilitarization in that area. "China is raising infrastructure like roads, tunnel and bridges besides power projects in PoK (Gilgitt-Baltistan). Chinese troops are very much present in PoK but they are not involved in any military operation or action in that part.

Earlier, winning the toss and batting first, Government Degree College (GDC) Rajouri scored a fighting total of 149 runs in the stipulated 20 overs, losing 3 wickets in the process. Nadeem Ahmed played a brilliant innings of 71 runs which included 4 fours and 2 sixes, while Tahir Mehmood, Imran Shah and Ajay Kumar contributed 29, 26 and 23 runs to the total respectively. For PG Law and Sciences Himanshu Sharma, Gokul Baru and Ajay Kumar claimed one wicket each. In reply, PG Law rode on a power-packed innings of 70 runs by Gokul Baru to chase the target in 18.5 overs by losing 4 wickets, thus won the match 6 wickets. Gokul smashed 7 delectable boundaries in his knock. Sheroz Malik and Ajay Kumar also contributed 26 and 23 runs to the total respectively. Imran Shah, Waseem and Sachin claimed one wicket each for GDC Rajouri. The match was officiated by Amit Gupta and Vijay Dogra as umpires, while Manu Khajuria acted as scorer. In another match, GDC Samba drubbed Bhargava All eyes on Tendulkar as Mumbai start as firm favourites Sachin Tendulkar will be the centre of attraction as 39-time champions Mumbai take on the bravehearts from Services in the Ranji Trophy semi-final starting at the Palam Airforce ground tomorrow. Ajit Agarkar-led side start as overwhelming favourites but one can't count the institutional side out after their five-wicket victory over UP. On paper, Services are no match for Mumbai, whose lineup boasts of names like Tendulkar, domestic runmachine Wasim Jaffer, allrounder Abhishek Nayar apart from two in-form youngsters in Hiken Shah and Kaustubh Pawar. "I don't know about overwhelming but we are favourites. It might sound arrogant but we have played at this level so many times that it has become like this," skipper Agarkar told the mediapersons after the team's training session. Tendulkar faced a lot of throw downs after a delivery from left-arm spinner Vishal Dabholkar kept really low in the Master Shubam Kaith of Shiksha Niketan Senior Secondary School, Jeevan Nagar, Jammu who was paid Rs 600 as cash prize for bagging 3rd prize in the Music Competition sponsored by J&K Academy of Art, Culture and Languages at Abhinav Theatre KL Sehgal Hall recently.

"Obviously, when you have a player of Sachin's calibre, it makes a lot of difference. Wasim has been our best batsmen for a few years now and our man for the season has been Abhishek Nayar. It's also good to find that new boys like Hiken and Kaustubh are doing well," the skipper added. For the Services side, playing a Ranji Trophy semi-final after more than five decades is a big achievement but Wing Commander Deepak Bhaskar, who is also team manager, said that boys are not overawed by the occasion. "They (Mumbai) might have a lot of cricketing exposure but our boys are also battle-hardened professionals. They have garnered experience about life from their experiences in the defence. We are not overawed by Tendulkar's presence. In any case, we are the underdogs," Wing Commander Bhaskar said.

The simmering tension on the Indo-Pak border today spilled over to the sporting arena with a rattled Hockey India deciding to send back all the nine Pakistani players taking part in its high-profile league following protests over the killing of Indian soldiers. After protests by Shiv Sena and other right-wing organisations disrupted the training and the first match of the league, Hockey India took the decision to send back the Pakistani players considering the "extra-ordinary circumstances". "After discussion with all the stakeholders, the Hockey India and Pakistan Hockey Federation have mutually decided to send them (Pakistan players) back due to an extra-ordinary situation which has arisen," Hockey India secretary general Narinder Batra told reporters here. "We kept all stakeholders the franchises, PHF and HI in the loop during these discussions. We Kumble questions BCCI's age-verification process at WC meeting took all on board before making this decision. All have approved this decision. The contract money for 2013 will be paid in full to the Pakistani players and HI stands committed in guaranteeing the same. "We and PHF have mutually decided to release the players so that they do not feel the mental stress and their performance is not affected," Batra added. Batra said that the franchises, who had to release the Pakistani players, were free to seek their replacements. "We will give the right to franchises which own Pakistani players that they can ask for replacements. They can select from the reserve pool within their allocated budget," Batra said. HI had initially decided to send back the Pakistani players of Mumbai Magicians franchise only but fearing that the league could be affected by disruptions, it took the decision to send back all the players. (PTI) Former India captain and Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) president Anil Kumble today raised questions about the Indian Cricket Board's age-verification process for various junior level tournaments. However it was reliably learnt that BCCI president N Srinivasan was not on the same page with India's highest wickettaker in international cricket. Kumble raised his objections at the board's Working Committee meeting today about the BCCI's prescribed 'bone density' tests for determining the age of the U-16, U-19 cricketers as there have been cases of agefudging in the past. "Anil raised the issue at the working committee meeting. His contention was that the bone density test which is carried out is not foolproof. There are a lot of discrepancies and he asked the president to think about an alternative. However, the president informed that the existing system was good enough and doesn't need any change," a senior BCCI official, who was present at the meeting, informed PTI. "I don't want to comment on this issue," was Kumble's terse reply when contacted for a reaction. Early last year, the Mumbai U-16 team had 11 out of its 16 players reported for over-age after Tanner- Whitehouse3(TW3) test, which determines skeletal maturity, was conducted. While the TW3 test was recommended by Dr Vece Paes during his association with the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), it has recently been done away with as the BCCI reverted back to its old method of bone density test. Kumble has been one of the vocal members of the BCCI as he has been raising various issues during the Working Committee meetings. During an earlier working committee meeting, Kumble had asked whether Duncan Fletcher has been asked by the BCCI to explain India's 0-8 debacle against England and Australia.

DAILY EXCELSIOR, JAMMU India finally win, thrash England in 2nd ODI KOCHI, Jan 15: India finally found their winning touch as they relied on a brilliant all-round display to thrash England by an emphatic 127 runs in the second cricket one-dayer here today. India first posted a competitive 285, riding on captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni's 72 and Ravindra Jadeja's 61, before the bowlers skittled out the visitors for a paltry 158 in just 36 overs to level the five-match series 1-1. It was a convincing and morale-boosting victory for the Indians who have struggled of late even in home conditions, losing the ODI series to arch-rivals Pakistan and the Test series against England. The hosts did well in all departments of the game, though the batting of the top order continued to be a concern with Gautam Gambhir (8) and Ajinkya Rahane (4) failing to deliver while the form of Virat Kohli remained patchy though he scored 37 today. It was Dhoni's 66-ball 72 and Jadeja's blistering unbeaten knock of 61 in just 37 balls which provided the late flourish to the Indian innings. Suresh Raina (55) and Yuvraj Singh (32), who was distinctly unlucky to be given LBW, were the other notable contributors. With the Nehru Stadium providing ample assistance to the bowlers in the second half, the Indians exploited the conditions to the hilt to bundle out the visitors with Kevin Pietersen being the top-scorer with a 58-ball 42. Bhuvneshwar Kumar (3/29), R Ashwin (3/39) and Jadeja (2/12) were the pick of the Indian bowlers to give the hosts a resounding victory in front of a capacity crowd. The two teams will now travel to Ranchi for the third onedayer to be played on January 19. It was rookie Shami Ahmed who gave India an early breakthrough with the wicket of Ian JAMMU, Jan 15: Two day On the Spot Painting Competition organized by J&K Academy of Art, Culture and Languages commenced today at Kala Kendra.

As if taking revenge for Bell's wicket, England captain Alastair Cook punished Shami for two fours in the fourth over and Pietersen joined his skipper by carting the same bowler for three boundaries three overs later. England were scoring at a brisk pace, more than five an over, and Ishant Sharma's introduction in the 10th over did not stop the flow of runs and the pacer was greeted with two boundaries by Pietersen.

Invitation to youth for Congress Chintan Shivir creates heartburn NEW DELHI, Jan 15 : With youth getting the lion's share in invitations, the muchtalked about Chintan Shivir of Congress being held in Jaipur this week has created heartburn in a section of the Party. Middle level leaders including former Union Ministers have been upset over their failure to get invitations despite being MPs and leaders for long. These leaders are doubly upset that the peculiar way of granting large scale invitations to the office bearers of the Youth Congress and the NSUI have created a situation that their followers have got in but they have failed. "What could be achieved by calling political greenhorns for such meets to decide on poll strategy?", a leader asked. Another said a better option could have been having a separate meeting of the IYC and NSUI office bearers with the Congress president and Rahul Gandhi, who is in charge of these bodies. The view of yet another leader was that it was hardly possible for doing a brainstorming session when the number of delegates run into hundreds. With Rahul Gandhi virtually taking centre-stage in Congress politics, youth power is expected to come to the fore as never before during the party's Chintan Shivir. This is because for the first time around 160 members from Youth Congress and NSUI will be among the 350 participants during two-day conclave which has assumed importance in view of the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. There were not more than five youth leaders in the earlier two such brainstorming sessions of the party at Panchmarhi and Shimla held in 1998 and 2003, respectively. Central leaders are projecting the conclave as an attempt to arrive at a "harmonious blend of youth and experience" to get the Party's act together as a precursor to formation of UPA-III.
