Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti (PAAS) convenor Hardik Patel visited Rajkot and met lead-ers of Patel community to lay groundwork for a rally that he said he is planning in the city to demand OBC status and reser-vation benefits for Patidars or Patels. Hardik reached Rajkot city late on Tuesday night and met social leaders of Patidar community over dinner. Babub-hai Ghodasara, a trustee of Umi-ya Mataji Mandir Trust, Sidsar, a social organisation of Kadva Patels, Paresh Gajera, trustee of Shri Khodaldham Trut, a so-cial organisation of Leuva Pa-tels and Maulesh Ukani, local businessman and son of Umiya Mataji Mandir Turst chairman Dahyabhai Ukani were among those who attended the dinner meeting. “We conveyed to Har-dik that in democracy, any com-munity can demand its right but

there are certain ways to do that. We suggested that such rights should be demanded in a man-ner which will keep image of the (Patidar) community intact, preserve peace and harmony in the state and will not lead to any class conflict,” Maulesh Ukani said on Wednesday. But Hardik said leaders of both communi-ties are with him. “Umiyadham and Khodaldham are with us. I am meeting Patidars in Rajkot to prepare ground for a mega rally here. We shall announce date of the rally in a fortnight.” PAAS is one of the two main outfits leading Patidars agita-tion for OBC status and reser-vation in government jobs and educational institutes in Guja-rat. Sardar Patel Group, headed by Lalji Patel, is the other outfit which also claims leadership of the agitation of economi-cally and politically influential community. In the morning,

Seeking the intervention of United Nations Security Coun-cil (UNSC), the International Peoples’ Tribunal on Human rights and Justice in Kashmir (IPTK) has said that top army and paramilitary officers in-cluding a Major General and seven Brigadiers are the “al-leged perpetrators” for grave human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir. IPTK and Association of Parents of Disappeared Persons (APDP) on Wednesday released a re-port ‘Structures of Violence’ highlighting the “patterns of violence” and identifying the “structure, forms and tac-tics of violence of the Indian state” in Jammu and Kashmir. “By releasing this report, we are pitching a demand before

the United Nations Security Council to refer the situation in Jammu and Kashmir to the prosecutor of International Criminal Court,” said IPTK Convener, Gautam Navlakha. “A copy of the report would be sent to UNSC and (United Na-tions Human Rights Council) UNHRC with an appeal to ap-point a special rapporteur to in-vestigate the crimes committed in Jammu and Kashmir”. The 804-page report estimates that the strength of armed forces in Jammu and Kashmir is between 6,56,638 to 7, 50, 981 person-nel. The report that documents 1080 “extra-judicial killings”, 172 “enforced disappearanc-es” besides cases of torture and sexual violence reveals that top army and paramilitary officers are involved in the crimes in the state.

Hardik visited RP Bhalodiya College and AP Patel Girls Hostel and met with students. He also met former BJP MP from Rajkot, Shiv-lal Vekaria. “He came to seek our blessings and support for the movement. I told him that his movement should be guided by Gandhian philosophy and that his action should not turn other communities against Patidars,” Vekaria,

who has of late fallen out of favour with the BJP, said. Later in the day, Hardik left for Kagvad village where Khodaldham Trust is building a temple of goddess Khodiyar. From Kagvad, Hardik drove to Deradi Kumbhaji village and met family members of 25 youths who have been booked by police for attempt to murder in connection with violence on

August 25. In the evening, the 22-year-leader of the Patidar agitation met youth of his community in Jas-dan town of Rajkot district. He also made a stopover at Kamlapur, the native vil-lage of his key aide Dinesh Bambhaniya in Jasdan talu-ka. He was to pass through Botad before driving back to Ahmedabd. “My orig-inal plan was to remain in Saurashtra till Friday. But leaders of Kurmi commu-nity from Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Rajasthan and Bihar are coming to Ahmedabad to discuss character of Pa-tel Navnirman Sena, an or-ganisation we have set up to mobilise the community in the country.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYWhy attacks on Mahatma Gandhi are good

Offended by attacks on the Mahatma, some friends who think of me as a scholar ask about a new book which, according to media reports, alleges that during his years in South Africa (1893-1914), Gandhi dis-dained black people and supported British imperi-alism. Not having read it, I cannot comment on the book, but I can address the two allegations. Before doing so, however, let me say that attacks on Gandhi should be welcomed, for they offer an opportunity to recall the things Gandhi stood for. Gandhi’s “answer to doubt”, given around Independence Day in 1947 — also known as the “talisman” — is deservedly famed. In that short text, Gandhi suggested that our uncertainty over the right course to take would dis-appear once we ask how the most helpless person we have known would be affected by our choice. Less well remembered is Gandhi’s reply when asked, in 1946, to describe the independent India he wished to see. Drawing a geometric picture, Gandhi said he wanted “not a pyramid but an oceanic circle” of complete equality. In such a circle, “the last would be first, in fact there would be no first and no last”, and the individual citizen, not a president or prime min-ister, would occupy the circle’s centre (Harijan, July 28, 1946). Yet, along with equality, Gandhi wanted fraternity; along with justice he sought reconciliation. Demanding justice for Dalits, Gandhi also strove for a partnership between Dalits and upper-caste Hin-dus. He wanted India’s Hindu majority to protect the country’s minorities, but he also wanted Hindu-Mus-lim friendship, and he asked Pakistan’s Muslim ma-jority to protect that country’s Hindus, Christians and minority-sect Muslims. Internationally, Gandhi want-ed a free Palestine (a cause that many in India have chosen to abandon) — but also Arab-Jewish reconcil-iation. Looking at the clash today between the need to escape from dangerous and seemingly hellish places and the lack of room in supposedly heavenly places, do we not yearn for persons with the large and just heart and wise mind that Gandhi showed? The same may be true when people desire to improve today’s dangerous relationship between the so-called Mus-lim world and the so-called West. Or when we think of inequalities in India, or of conflicts in Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Palestine, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Dead now for nearly 70 years, Gandhi did not leave behind precise solutions for such problems. But his legacy will aid, not impede, efforts to find the solutions, even if we assume for a moment that between 1893 and 1914, Gandhi was prejudiced about Africa’s blacks and backed British imperialism.

Actor Anil Kapoor is quite excited about his daugh-ter Sonam Kapoor‘s up-coming film “Prem Ratan Dhan Payo” with super-star Salman Khan and says the two make a good couple on screen. “It’s a Sooraj Barjatya film so there is excitement. I am excited to see it. He is a great director, he has made some path-break-ing films. He has changed the way films are made in India. He has huge fans,” Kapoor told PTI in an in-terview here. “People like Aditya Chopra and Karan Johar are completely in-spired by his (Barjatya’s)

kind of filmmaking. He changed the way marriag-es are celebrated in India. He got the whole value, family system back which is the fabric of India. He has contributed a lot to this country,” Kapoor said. “Prem Ratan Dhan Payo”, the family drama directed by Sooraj Barjatya, has Salman in a double role. It is one of the most await-ed films of the year con-sidering that Barjatya and Salman have earlier given blockbusters together and they are coming back to-gether after a very long time. Sonam and Salman had earlier shared screen space in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s “Sawaariya”.

While response to ‘Wel-come Back’ has im-mensely pleased its di-rector Anees Bazmee, speculations are rife that he may not helm the third installment of the now successful franchise. However when asked about it, Anees told In-dian Express.Com over phone: “It’s too early to say whether I will direct it or not. Nothing is con-firmed for the moment.

If I am paid my price, I will. After all, I work very hard. Also, it depends on the story because that is what the audience come for ultimately.” It was reported that Anees had a fall out with producer Firoz A. Nadiadwala over pay issues for ‘Welcome Back’. When quizzed about it, Anees said: “There is no animosity between us. Yes, when you work hard what you are paid becomes an im-portant issue. And if you

share a great 11 year re-lation with someone, you will have small issues here and there. But I am not a person who will har-bour ill feelings against anyone for trivial pay is-sues.” For the moment, Anees is focused on his next project with Amitabh Bachchan, ‘Aankhen 2’. While Big B reprises his role, the blind men from the prequel will have new actors. Anil Kapoor too joins the star cast with an important role.

The Rajasthan High Court on Wednesday slammed the centre for not imple-menting larger pictori-al warnings on cigarette packs, despite an earli-er order, in response to a contempt petition. In July, the HC had stayed the central government’s March 26th corrigendum withholding implemen-tation of 85 percent pic-torial warnings on both sides of cigarette packs, as mandated by the 2014 anti-tobacco rules and had asked the central and state governments to imple-ment larger warnings. The contempt petition came up during the hearing of a Public Interest Litigation filed by advocate Rahul Joshi, seeking larger pic-torial warnings on cig-arette packs. A division bench comprising acting chief Justice Ajeet Singh and Justice A.S. Grewal told Additional Solicitor General R.D.Rastogi to take immediate steps for the implementation of the larger warnings. The pe-

titioner had requested the HC to hear the contempt petition, that he had filed relating to non-compli-ance of its July order, be-fore the PIL. “The Union of India till date, under pressure from tobacco lobby has not taken any steps for implementation of the said Rules of 2014. The inaction is willful and deliberate disregard of the Hon’ble Court,” the petitioner’s counsel S.R.Joshi argued before the High Court. “The High Court took serious view of the matter and asked the counsel, Addition-al Solicitor General Mr. R.D. Rastogi to take steps immediately otherwise the court will pass order for personal appearance of the contemnor (union health secretary Bhanu Pratap Sharma),” Joshi. The union health ministry had issued a corrigendum in March this year keep-ing in abeyance the 2014 rules, which mandated larger warnings, five days before they were to come into effect on April 1.

Legendary spinner Anil Kumble on Wednesday said India’s Test series win against Sri Lanka in the away tour was a tre-mendous achievement by the team. “It is a tre-mendous victory. It is a united effort by the team-mates,” he said attending a function at a school in

Salem. Hailing leader-ship skills of Captain Vi-rat Kholi, who took over the reins of the team from M S Dhoni, Kumble said the Lankan win would boost his confidence fur-ther. India clinched their first Test series victory in Sri Lanka in 22 years, recording a 117–run win in the third and final Test

for a 2-1 margin earlier this month. It was also India’s first ever overseas series triumph from a 0-1 deficit. The last time an Indian team won a series in Sri Lanka was way back in 1993 under Mo-hammed Azharuddin’s leadership when they sealed the series with 1-0 scoreline.

Although government reports indi-cate a near normal sowing at over 83 lakh hectare, experts fear that actual farm production will be far lower, weakening the rural demand for goods in the rest of the year. “The present stage is very critical for crops.

District president of Bharatiya Ki-san Sangh (BKS) Ukabhai Patodia said that crops in most parts of district have failed or on the verge of failure. “Farmers are up-rooting groundnut crop so that it can at least be used

for fodder. We have urged Gujarat government to fill the dams with canal water. We are not even getting enough electricity,” said Patodia. Most of the Gu-jarat’s farms are rain-fed.
