Only after a probe will it be known how the tusk-ers died, the official said, adding that the tusks of all the elephants were found removed.

The Modi government’s three-month compliance window for holders of illegal wealth abroad is more about the politics of black money than a realistic roadmap for its reduction and ultimate elimination. The scheme is more stick than carrot, and it is highly unlike-ly that the big fish will bite. Populist politics has trumped sane economics. The compliance window, which opened on 1 July under the Black Mon-ey (Undisclosed Foreign Income and Assets) and Imposition of Tax Act, 2015, allows Indians with illegal assets or incomes abroad to declare the same to the taxman with the promise of no pros-ecution.

Government is not will-ing to accept majority of recommendations related to the hike in salary and allowances of MPs and pension of ex-MPs made by a Parliamentary panel. Sources said the Parlia-mentary Affairs Ministry in its comments (Action Taken Report) sent to the panel headed by BJP MP Yogi Adityanath on June 24 made it clear that it won’t be able to consid-er a number of recom-mendations made by the panel, while it decided to send some others to con-cerned ministries to take an ‘appropriate’ view. Representatives of the Ministry, who appeared before the panel on June 25, also told the pan-

el members that a large number of their recom-mendations like increas-ing MPs’ Daily Allow-ance from Rs 2000 to Rs 5000, increasing the num-ber of their air travel from 34 to 48, allowing free air travel to ex MPs, extend-ing health care facilities to their married children and grandchildren, could not considered, the sourc-

es said. The panel is like-ly to submit its report af-ter a meeting on July 13. The panel had pitched for 100 per cent hike in sal-ary, constituency allow-ance and office allowance to MPs and around 75 per cent raise in pension of ex-MPs apart from facilities for their “companions” in place of “spouses”. Cur-rently an MP gets a basic

salary of Rs 50 thousand added by Rs 45 thousand each for constituency and office expenses, which makes it to Rs 1.4 lakh per month. They wanted to double it to Rs 2.8 lakh per month, the sources said. Besides they get Rs two thousand as Daily Al-lowances per day when they attend Parliament or any committee. They wanted it to be raised to Rs five thousand. The panel also recommended that their furniture allow-ances should also be dou-bled from the existing Rs 75 thousand and their air travel should be increased from 34 to 48 annually. They also wanted that the facilities extended to their wife should be extended to any “companion”.

September will be given another three months to pay the tax and penalty by 31 December. So far, so good. But the terms of the law are so daunting that only minor holders of black wealth will even be tempted to comply. Rea-son: 60 percent of the in-come will be taxed, com-prising 30 percent tax and 30 percent penalty. If you have, say, Rs 10 crore of illegal wealth abroad, it may make some sense to declare it and pay Rs 6 crore to the taxman in

the hope of avoiding fu-ture harassment. It is not a great sum to forgo for some peace of mind. But what if you had Rs 1,000 crore in the Cayman Is-lands? Why would you want to pay Rs 600 crore to the taxman? If you have that kind of hoard abroad, it may be well worth the risk of court-ing tax troubles at home. When you have so much illegal money, it means you have the resources to keep the taxman away from the loot too.

was upper most in every-body’s mind was security of the people,” former RAW chief AS Dulat said on the Kandahar hi-jack during an interview television on Thursday. Dulat is right. During the six tense days of the hi-jacking drama — from

the moment the plane left Nepal and reached Kandahar — there was not even a moment when the Vajpayee government had the option of sacri-ficing the passengers and crew. Visuals of shabbily dressed Talibanis circling the plane with Kalash-

nikovs and rocket launch-ers, the murder of Rupin Katyal, who was stabbed by hijackers, the mount-ing pressure from rela-tives of passengers, the prevailing mood in the nation and the emotional subtext of the coverage of the event had left Vajpay-ee with no other option. To complicate matters, the drama was played out on the land of the Taliban and the hideout of Osa-ma bin Laden. The West had refused to help India in its fight. There was no way Vajpayee could have allowed the slaughter of innocent Indians on the eve of a new millennium. He had to give in to the demands of the terrorists.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYModi must heed the warning signs of his government’s diminishing credibility

The Narendra Modi government’s credibility is at serious risk on three fronts: corruption, commu-nalism and dissent. Under a seemingly placid sur-face, undercurrents are taking shape which, if not checked, have the ability to derail the government. The aggressiveness of its own supporters, the low credibility of the opposition and the drumbeat of its own propaganda may blind the government to them. But it would be foolish not to heed the warning signs.Take corruption. In the Lalit Modi saga the govern-ment seems to be feeling a false sense of reprieve. It seems to think that the longer the list of people Lalit Modi names, the less muck will stick on this government. Where an entire political establishment is at fault, no one can be singled out. Second, the Congress is not entirely clear on its line of attack. It cannot come clean on its own perfidies. And it has indiscriminately expanded the ambit of its attack on Vasundhara Raje in a way that may not stand scruti-ny. Third, the media’s credibility is low: it has been repeatedly shown to be selective in whom it targets; rather than its own credible investigations, it has become dependent on sound bytes and half-baked leaks, and it goes into a sulk when Lalit Modi refus-es to oblige. Under such circumstances, it is easy to be deluded that there will be more heat than light in this matter. But in politics, heat singes. The fact that Lalit Modi is emerging as an insurgent hero should worry the government. Shorn of technicalities, the fact remains that two senior ministers, with whom Lalit Modi has a direct or indirect financial relation-ship, helped him in ways that go beyond a humani-tarian gesture. The government has said nothing that dispels this impression. That Congress politicians might also have helped him is neither here nor there.But this case has established three institutional points decisively. First, do not expect any government to dispassionately investigate the financial shadiness in Indian cricket. This is so for a structural reason: the Enforcement Directorate comes under politicians who are themselves involved in the game. Those who need to be investigated are the bosses of the investigators. Second, Lalit Modi may or may not be innocent. But it is hard to shake the impression that when the government does proceed against an individual, it is usually because it wants to target them for a political reason. Third, he has managed to revive the appalling spectre of plutocratic collu-sion in India’s ruling class, between the media, poli-ticians, business and sport: a clubby elite, decamped to London, who all happen to run into each other all the time. This is an elite that will feign fights over everything in the national interest, but become cosy buddies over drinks in London. The anger this will generate should not be underestimated. And it will rub off on the government, since it is now position-ing itself at the centre of this club rather than dis-tancing itself from it.

The title of the ‘serial kisser’ of Indian cine-ma no longer belongs to Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi. Giving him com-pany is Tamil actor-direc-tor GV Prakash Kumar. It has come to light that for a lip-locking scene from the upcoming Tamil roman-tic-comedy Trisha Illana Nayanthara, actor-com-poser GV Prakash Kumar and co-star Manisha Ya-dav had to enact the said scene 36 times before canning the perfect shot. “Prakash was initially hesitant about the lip-lock scene. He wasn’t comfort-able with the idea. How-ever, Manisha didn’t have

any qualms about it and instantly gave her a nod when she was narrated the scene. It took Prakash some motivation, but he eventually gave in,” said a source from the film’s unit. It took 36 takes be-cause the scene was shot from different angles. “The director wanted to capture the scene from the most appropriate an-gle in order to not make it look dirty. Hence, it took so many takes to lock the shot,” the source said. Di-rected by debutant Adhik Ravichandran, the film features Anandhi as one of the leading ladies, while veteran actor Simran Bag-ga has essayed a cameo.

Yesteryear actress Anu Aggarwal who shot to fame with her debut film ‘Ashiqui’ has penned her autobiography that will hit stands in August. The book titled ‘Anu-sual- Memoir of a Girl who Came Back from the Dead’ is a tell-all tale about the once sexy siren of Bollywood who has now taken to spiri-tualism and Yoga. The bold actress of the 90s who usually stays away from media glare shared the news on Facebook. “Finally guys, Hooray! A ‘Never-say-die-story’. Bigger than a Bollywood blockbuster, my unpre-dictable life, will be out in stores next month.

She was a sensation and shot for many luxury magazines. Her hot and bold avatar set her apart from her contemporaries. But she had a very short career span, from 1990 to 96, during which she appeared in a few Bolly-wood films and a couple of regional films.

Young player Jasjit Singh Kular’s fine show in the ongoing World League Semifinals has brought a village on the outskirts of Punjab’s Jalandhar city back into the focus of the hockey fraternity. Jasjit hails from a small village Sansarpur, on the fringe of Jalandhar city that used to be the hub of Indian hockey in its heydays. Known as the hockey village among the sports buffs, Sansar-pur was a tiny hamlet that provided a number of Olympic medal win-ners when hockey was a craze and India were

the prima donnas of the international game. Coming from a village synonymous with Indian hockey, the sport was an obvious childhood pas-sion for Jasjit, but it was not until he got into col-lege after turning 18 that he seriously pursued the game. “I was a late start-er and did not get serious about playing hockey un-til I got into college,” says Jasjit. “For one whose village is Sansarpur, the passion for hockey was always there. I used to play as a child, but ours is a family of doctors and the focus was scientific education,” said Jasjit, who scored two goals

in the 3-2 win over Ma-laysia that placed India in the last-four round. “It was as a student of Jalandhar’s Khalsa Col-lege that I got into hock-ey seriously,” he says. The late-starter bloomed pretty quickly, mak-ing the national team in less than five years after playing his first compet-itive game. Jasjit made his international debut as a half-back during the 2014 World Cup at The Hague against Belgium. At the World Cup, within the limited time he was fielded, Jasjit even got his name on the score-sheet against Malaysia in open field play.

Tall, lithe and sporting a shaggy mane of dreads that would make Bob Marley jealous, Dustin Brown made headlines on Thursday when he de-livered a shock upset by defeating two-time Wim-bledon champion Rafael Nadal on Centre Court in a sensational four-set match. But among all the adulation and astonish-ment at the 30-year old’s audacious victory came an oft-repeated question - who is he? Born in Celle, Germany to a Jamaican father and a German mother, the world num-ber 102 is now one of the few players who boasts a perfect winning record against the Spaniard, 2-0. But while the two men

may be similar in terms of their age, their careers have been markedly dif-ferent. Brown, who rep-resented Jamaica until 2010, before he switched to his mother’s national-ity, hasn’t enjoyed any-where near the same suc-cess as the former world no 1; a fact that is all the more perplexing when one considers his style of play. Authoritative ground-strokes, a powerful serve and a wonderful agili-

ty all helped Brown on Thursday, with his serve-and-volley style of play hearkening back to the days of Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe. The 30-year-old, who has nev-er made it to a final of an ATP event, used to travel to tournaments in a Volk-swagen camper, which was bought for him by his parents who were worried about the lack of support from his then-sponsor, Tennis Jamaica.

Resident doctors at Vadi-lal Sarabhai Hospital went on an indefinite strike on Thursday morning, in protest against an attack on one doctor the previ-ous night by relatives of a female patient admitted in the trauma ward. An FIR was registered fol-lowing the incident and one of the relatives was held while the police are searching for the other two, said hospital super-intendent Dr S T Malhan. The patient, Saira Banu, was brought to the hos-pital with complaint of epilepsy on Wednesday.

According to Dr Malhan, the patient was undergo-ing various tests before the start of the treatment. “In between, the patient suffered a bout of epilep-sy even as doctors were taking CT scan etc… Seeing her in a fit of sei-zure, patients panicked and called for doctor but by the time the doctor came, she passed away,” said Dr Malhan. He add-ed that following this, some relatives of the pa-tient became agitated and attacked a neuro unit doc-tor out of anger. This led to ruckus at night and by morning, all resident doc-tors went on strike, leav-

ing all work unfinished. Dr Malhan claimed that the strike did not affect routine procedures and all professors and senior doctors were deployed as an emergency measure. The hospital seniors were given eight hour duty schedules. According to Dr Malhan, the demands of the striking doctors in-clude provision of ade-quate security for doctors on duty, police protection for doctors, deployment of bouncers in wards and reduction in duty hours, among others. He added that so far three rounds of meetings were held with the striking doctors.

The GCC – India bilateral trade is above $130 bil-lion in recent times, out of which Qatar- India bilat-eral trade is estimated to be around $16 billion. In-dian economy is expected to grow by 7.5 percent in the current fiscal year and hence, more viable oppor-tunities to explore the two-way relationship in the areas of trade, investment and banking between the two blocs are slated to open up.

The Gujarat government has objected to the pro-posed formula for sharing with states the revenue that would be earned as Goods and Services Tax (GST). The central government has already announced that it will implement GST from April 2016. Gujarat’s main objection is that as it is a manufacturing state, it will suffer major loss of revenue under the proposed formula which follows a destina-tion-based consumption tax model. The state has said that it will directly lose 2%

share in Central Sales Tax (CST) as well as income from other taxes. Sources in the state government said that the central government has, prime facie, agreed to compensate Gujarat with 1% additional tax revenue in addition to the uniform GST share, but only for two years. The state gov-ernment, however, has de-manded a larger share and stated that two years of com-pensation is not enough. The Centre’s argument that the states will get addition-al benefit of service tax is not convincing as there is no clarity on it. (Currently,

service tax is entirely with the Centre.) Gujarat has a good service industry but it cannot match the tax in-come from the manufactur-ing sector, said the sources in the state government. At present state’s average income from value added tax (VAT) and other state taxes is around Rs 62,000 crore per annum —VAT alone Rs45,000 crore — and its share in central taxes is around Rs.14000 crore. The state government’s concern is to get around Rs 76,000 crore with at least 20% per annum growth in tax revenue.
