Dhrasti Vashistha from Vastrapur set an exam-ple for girls from the city when, earlier this month, she finally joined the In-dian Air Force giving wings to her childhood dreams. Vashistha, along with Kevhana Shah from Vadodara are the only two young women from Gujarat to have joined the Air Force this year. She says she had been work-ing towards her aim from the time she was a child and had joined NCC to groom herself. “I felt a lack of awareness among

Gujarati youths about armed forces, and hence not many cadets, espe-cially girls wished to join them,” said Vashistha who is now a flying of-ficer posted at Bangalore and tasked with aircraft maintenance. “I wanted to do something which is not considered main-stream, and is a challeng-ing career,” she added.

In a bloody carnage on Dalal Street, mar-ket benchmark Sensex plunged by 604.51 points on Friday to 26,397.71, its biggest single-day fall in nearly four months, as a shock victory for ‘Leave’ camp in the UK referendum sent markets across the world into a tailspin. As a result, to-tal investor wealth, mea-sured in terms of cumu-lative market value of all listed stocks, tanked nearly Rs 1.79 lakh crore. The rupee also took a sharp plunge of 96 paise (intra-day) against the US dollar to crash below the 68-level, but RBI inter-vention to infuse liquidity helped the local currency recoup some early losses.

The Indian information technology exports that rides on a $30 billion (Rs 2 lakh crore) export to the European Union, half of which is in the United Kingdom, is bracing itself for short term increases in costs and a decline in val-ue of British Pound even as it remains optimistic about the long term gains after Britons voted to leave the union after a national referendum was held on Thursday. Industry body Nasscom (National Asso-ciation of Software and Services Companies) said that decline in the value of the British Pound, which could render many exist-ing deals losing proposi-tions unless they are re-negotiated. Nasscom said that the protracted nego-tiations between Britain and EU on the terms of the exit could impact decision making for large projects.

It also expects an increase in the cost of doing busi-ness in Europe as Indian IT companies may need to establish separate head-quarters and operations for EU which may also see some disinvestment by Indian companies in the UK. English as a lan-guage of doing business, linked to the historic ties between India and UK has until now served well in making London the gate-way for Indian IT sector to the larger European mar-ket. “Nasscom urges poli-cy makers in Brussels and London to provide greater clarity and guidance on the next steps as soon as

possible, so that our busi-nesses have the certainty they need to continue to invest in UK and Europe”, said Nasscom President R Chandrashekhar. He said initial feedback from poli-cy makers in UK indicates their commitment to mini-mize the possible negative impact of this referendum. Nasscom believes that movement of skilled la-bour across EU and UK could be impacted and changes in the financial system, banks and impact on currency could ensue. Today over 110,000 Indi-an IT professional from around 800 companies work in the UK.

Silver also registered a steep rise of Rs 1,000 to Rs 42,300 per kg, largely in tandem with global trend as money flew to safe-ha-ven investments follow-ing trouble over Brexit – Britain’s exit from EU. “The bullion demand has got a boost as the rupee hit fresh low and equi-ties tumbled, leaving no place for investors but to park their funds in gold as a safe-haven,” Vice President of All In-dia Sarafa Association

Surender Kumar Jain told agency. He said the met-al climbed to the highest level in more than two years after Britain voted to exit EU and the pound sterling crashed by over 10 per cent to its lowest since September 1985, spurring investors’ de-mand for a haven.

over the longevity of the Conservative Prime Min-ister who aggressively campaigned for Remain. Shortly after the official announcement, Cam-eron stepped out of 10 Downing Street to make a brief statement in which he announced his inten-tion to resign, saying a

new Prime Minister will take charge in October to launch the process to leave EU. Watched by his wife Samantha, the 49-year-old British lead-er, who has just complet-ed a little over a year in his second five-year term, assured the world, more specifically the European

nations, that there will be no immediate changes in the way people will travel and services will be sold in Britain. “The country requires a fresh leader-ship to take this forward. While it is important that I stay on to steady the

ship, it is not right to be the captain. I will do ev-erything I can to do to help,” Cameron said as his voice choked with emotion. Describing the referendum as a “giant democratic exercise”, the Premier said the “will of the people must

be respected” and their “instruction that must be delivered”. “There can be no doubt about the re-sult…I would like to re-assure markets and coun-tries around the world that Britain’s economy remains fundamentally strong,” he said. “In my view I think we should have a new prime minis-ter in place by the start of the Conservative confer-ence in October,” Cam-eron said. The Cabinet will meet on Monday and a timetable for him stepping down will be drawn up.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYDominant castes resent reservations, backward

groups haven’t fully benefitedMarathas, Patels, Jats, Kapus and others are asking for reservations today, preferably through their rec-ognition as Other Backward Classes. This demand reflects the challenges they are facing on the job market. Not only is the Indian economy not creat-ing as many jobs as before (the number has declined from 7 lakh to 1.55 lakh from 2011-12 to 2014-15 in the eight sectors reviewed by the Labour Bureau), but wages in the private sector are much lower than in the public sector. On average, in 2011-12 daily earnings were almost 2.5 times higher in the public sector at Rs 945 against Rs 388 in the private sec-tor. The gap will increase after the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission are implemented. Cer-tainly, this assessment needs to be qualified because salaries of government jobs are mostly attractive at entry-level. But they are also perceived as less de-manding, more stable and as providing many social benefits. However, one may wonder whether the in-clusion of dominant castes in the OBC list is such a panacea. The first problem is that the public sec-tor is shrinking: Government jobs which were 19.5 million in 1996-97 are about 17.6 million today. Certainly, the percentage of public jobs is higher in some states than in others — 16 per cent in Kerala to 1.2 per cent in Gujarat — but the national aver-age is rather low at 4.5 per cent. It is also true that among government workers, groups A and B have continued to grow (24.1 and 27 per cent respectively between 2001-02 and 2011-12), but groups C and D have declined by 8.4 per cent over the same period, and these are the most numerous. According to the 7th pay commission, only slightly more than 1 lakh jobs were added every year in departments and min-istries of the central government between 2006 and 2014. The stock of jobs of the state governments be-ing 1.6 times that of the Centre in 2006, if they have recruited at the same rate, by and large, the public sector has been hiring 3 lakh people a year in 2006-14 — when about 8 lakh young Indians were enter-ing the job market annually. Secondly, government jobs may not be the right solution for the dominant castes listed above because an increasingly large percentage of these jobs are occupied by contract workers who earn at least twice less than the direct-ly employed ones. In 2014, a report prepared by the Indian Staffing Federation showed that at least 44 per cent of the government employees are now temporary — and their number is on the rise. Not only are their wages almost as low as those of the contract workers of the private sector, but they are deprived of social security benefits. If we return to the Patels, Marathas, Jats and Kapus, this state of things is particularly re-sented by such caste groups which used to enjoy a prestigious status in the village and whose expecta-tions are still high. In fact, some studies show that their job problem has much to do with the hiatus be-tween their expectations and their skills: They want good jobs but are not very qualified. In a way, their problem is one of employability — which explains that joblessness is particularly pervasive among those who have degrees, but no real skill.

The film launches two star kids – Anil Ka-poor’s son Harshvardhan Kapoor and Tanvi Azmi’s niece Saiyami Kher – in the lead, and the official trailer gives a glimpse

Priyanka says, “It was a joke. Obviously, I’m not going to be violent. But the way it was written, it made it seem like I was serious and that I’ll ac-tually whip the person. It was an analogy of the passion that I would feel [if a man cheats on me], not physical violence.” In one of her past inter-views, the actor had said that celebrities often be-come “soft targets” for the public and the media. Yet, she doesn’t refrain from speaking her mind whenever required. “I know I should be diplo-matic, but I’m a girl with an opinion. I’m not afraid of having one,” says Pri-yanka, adding, “I’m told all the time by my team and my family to shut up and not always say what’s on the tip of my tongue.” The actor has been spend-ing most of her time in the US, where she is shooting for her ongoing television series. Ask her if she feels scared at times, especial-ly post the gruesome Or-lando shootings, and the actor says, “No, I’m not scared because things can happen anywhere you go.

Of all the unimportant things, football is the most important. This is a common saying in Brazil and was heard often in the aftermath of their 1-7 loss to Germany in the 2014 World Cup semi-final.

Reports in the Brit-ish media have said that the Premiership, by its estimates, is broadcast to 730 million homes in 185 countries. That

Kumble is expected to have his own set of bat-ting and bowling coaches too, who will take care of much of the techni-cal aspects for him. His big challenge though, is time.

wild card James Ward and could meet big-serv-ing Canadian Milos Ra-onic in the last-eight. Murray takes on compa-triot Liam Broady in the first round with a poten-tial clash against Austra-lia’s Nick Kyrgios in the fourth round. Frenchman Richard Gasquet is a pos-sible quarter-final rival.

We want to put teams under pressure and there’s no reason to change. “This style of cricket has been good fun to play in and has given us some suc-cess.” England have dis-played freedom and exu-berance in their approach

to the limited-overs for-mats since their humil-iating group stage exit at last year’s 50-over World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

That could leave out the Premiership clubs be-cause they wanted to ‘Remain’. The Premier League chairman, Rich-ard Scudamore, had spo-ken about the need to ‘Remain’ as had David Beckham, who explained his decision by mention-ing the help he got from European teammates as Manchester United made winning the Premiership a habit. As this was be-ing written, the pound slumped to a 31-year low and given that football and business have been linked since the 1974 Fifa presidential election, this could affect the world’s most watched league.

for almost a year and the BCCI has now given a go ahead. “In September, the BCCI is willing to host a mini-IPL overseas with all eight teams,” he said. Thakur said the modal-ities, including whether the current IPL broad-casters Sony will telecast the matches or the rights will be given to a fresh bidder, were to be decid-ed. According to BCCI sources, they didn’t want

to delay the announce-ment because the window was very short and they did not want any other tournament to be slotted in. Thakur said: “We have to speak to the franchises, broadcasters and look at the revenue model. Many countries are willing to host. We have to look at the various time zone (and decide) where we can take it. It will be an annual affair.”

The Maruti Suzuki Bale-no will walk away with the honors of being the first model to roll out from the Suzuki Motor Corporation’s Mehsana Gujarat plant, beginning from January 2017. As much as 85,000 units will roll out from the new fa-cility at Gujarat. 50% of them will be the 1.3-liter diesel engines and the rest of them will be petrol en-gines.

What is more important for the people of Gujarat: a toilet inside the house or a mobile phone? Far more people in Gujarat have access to a cellphone than to a toilet. According to the Sample Registration System-Baseline Sur-vey (SRS) 2014, 98.3% of the people in the state have mobile connections, while only 69.8% have toilets in their homes. However, according to senior government of-ficials, 73.98% house-holds in the state have toilets. Officials said that of the 18,000-odd vil-lages in Gujarat, only in 4,800 do all households have toilets. SRS reveals that of the 69.8% people

The 2002 riots are a re-pressed memory for many of today’s Ahmedabad youngsters. They say they want to look to the future. Some are pursu-ing careers in law, others in education. A harmony of sorts has been restored between the Hindus and the Muslims, they add. Wedding invites are once again being extended and neither side wants a re-peat of 2002. But in un-spoken ways, the ghosts of the bloodshed remain. It’s been 14 years since a railway coach full of Hindu pilgrims erupted

in flames, sparking three days of rioting in cities across Gujarat. And in the two worst-affected areas -- the Ahmedabad suburb of Naroda Patiya and the Muslim-majority Gulberg housing society -- the scars are still visi-ble. In Naroda, Muslim families still leave their homes before the annual Navratri and Rath Yatra festivals. “Whenever a large Hindu crowd gath-ers around our area, we leave with our valuables,” says college student Asif Mansuri, 20. “We go away and live with relatives. We return after the Hindu fes-

Chief Minister Anandi-ben Patel Thursday told BJP state executive com-mittee members that the male members of the par-ty should not feel threat-ened in sharing power with their women coun-terparts. The CM added that there was no alterna-tive, but to acknowledge the power of women. Laughing off “threats”

felt by male counterparts in the party, the CM said, “Whether they (women) are a threat or not, we have to acknowledge it (their power).” The CM was addressing party workers at the conclud-ing day of the two-day Gujarat BJP executive meeting at Dudhsagar Dairy here. Emphasis-ing the need to increase women’s participation in

He was six at the time of the riots. “I remember men with swords setting hous-es on fire,” he says. “We returned after two years of living in relief camps and relatives’ homes.” His two elder brothers had to drop out of school. “They had to earn for the family. It took us years to make back what we lost. If not for the riots, they too would have studied and had good jobs. Instead they work as labourers at a construction site,” Mansuri says. To set things right, Mansuri plans to pursue a degree in law. “There is no point getting upset about what happened. It’s in the past. I want to work hard and help my family,” he says. “With a degree, I will earn decent money and also fight for my community’s rights.”

Interest-ingly, April 2016 figures released by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India reveals that the state has 6.18 crore mo-bile connections, against

the population of 6.04 crore as determined by the 2011 census.

The In-charge DGP was himself mon-itoring the case and had instructed the police ma-chinery to nab him at the earliest. The case and alle-gations of lewd behaviour by elderly Patel with some other girl students includ-

ing a model had created lot of anger against him. His effigies were burnt in the city and a bandh call was also given against the incident. Even the chief minister and education minister has instructed for strict action against him. His arrest happened on a day when a video purport-edly showing him in con-versation with the family members of the victim had emerged.

50 per cent reservation for women in local insti-tutes of self-governance introduced by the state government, Anandiben said that it could “natu-rally” cause a feeling of “insecurity” or “threat” among the men.

August 25 last year, vio-lence broke out in many parts of the state after police allegedly lathi-charged a Patidar rally in Ahmedabad. Morbi too had witnessed large-scale violence, with mobs torching three dozen Gu-jarat State Road Trans-port Corporation buses and setting fire to the of-fices of local MLA Kanti Amrutiya and Union Ag-riculture Minister Mohan Kundariya. The army was deployed to control the

violence. In an attempt to maintain law and order, the administration in-voked Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC), 1973 and banned the assembly of more than four persons without prior permission on Au-gust 25 for two days. The notification issued under Section 144 also prohib-ited public meetings and processions without prior permission, but exempt-ed religious and social gatherings.
