If he comes, then ‘tama-sha’ and if does not come then even more ‘tamasha’. Arvind Kejriwal led Aam Admi Party(AAP) today tried to make new ‘tama-sha’(or say controversy) over cancellation of Ke-jriwal’s proposed visit to Gujarat. AAP MLA from Delhi who is party’s Gujarat incharge today called a press conference in Ahmedabad and cre-ated an impression that Kejriwal had to cancel his Gujarat visit as local hosts were put under pres-sure of state government and booking of hall at South Gujarat University was canceled. When we

applied fact check, local person called Jaylal who had “invited” Arvind Ke-jriwal to converse with business persons and traders said there’s abso-lutely no pressure from anybody. The event was canceled because it had become too big. The event will be organized again in future. At the same time the Vice Chancellor of South Gujarat Universi-ty Dr Dakshesh Thakar said, “we have not can-celled the event. Even as of today, there’s no other booking in this hall for July 10. The organizers have from their side can-celed the event and taken back the advance money

was quoted by Reuters as saying. Chief Justice TS Thakur is already hearing a separate case to strike down the ban. A curative petition has challenged the Supreme Court’s pre-vious ruling that only Parliament has the power to change Section 377. India’s gay community has been fighting to get a ban on homosexual sex overturned ever since the Supreme Court reinstated a decades-old law in late 2013. That ban ended a four-year period of de-

criminalisation that had helped bring homosex-uality increasingly out into the open in a deep-ly conservative society. Discrimination faced by homosexual communi-ties across the world was thrown into sharp relief again this month after a gunman slaughtered 49 people at a gay nightclub in Florida. Some Western countries have pressured India to overturn its ban on gay sex and respect human rights regardless of sexual orientation.

and details of the attack. “It is a jigsaw puzzle” said the official. There were conflicting reports on where at the terminal the attackers blew them-selves up. Earlier, the same official had said none of the attackers got past security checks at the entrance, with two detonating explosives at the international arrivals terminal and the third in

the parking lot. The offi-cial spoke on condition of anonymity in line with government protocol. But the HaberTurk newspa-per reported that one at-tacker blew himself up outside the terminal, and two others opened fire near the X-ray machines. One report said attacker was shot at while running amid fleeing passengers, then blew himself up at

the exit. The third attack-er went up one level to the international depar-tures terminal, was shot by police and detonated his explosives, according to the report. Airport sur-veillance video posted on social media appeared to show the moment of one explosion, a huge ball of fire, and passengers flee-ing. Another appeared to show an attacker, felled by a gunshot from a security officer, blowing himself up seconds later. “So, what can we think? We cannot think anything,” said Ali Batur, whose brother died. “A terror attack might happen everywhere, it happens everywhere. This terror trouble is also in our country. If God permits, we will get over this in unity and solidarity.”

istry of Finance will also be looking to work out a customised group insur-ance scheme with low premium and high risk

cover. The pay panel had in November last year recommended 14.27 per cent hike in basic pay at junior levels, the lowest

in 70 years. The previ-ous 6th Pay Commis-sion had recommended a 20 per cent hike which the government doubled while implementing it in 2008. After considering the increase proposed in allowances, the hike in remunerations comes to 23.55 per cent. The 7th Pay Commission report will be effective from January 1, Jaitley said, adding that the Cabinet will decide if the arrears for the six months have to be paid in one go or in

installments. “This will involve additional ex-penditure for the Govt in terms of 1,02,100 crores,” Mathur said. Over one crore Central government employees, past and pres-ent, will benefit from the 7th Pay Commission rec-ommendations approved by the Union Cabinet on Wednesday. But we will have to wait to see what the actual hike will be. A secretaries’ panel, head-ed Cabinet Secretary P K Sinha, has already vetted the 7th Pay Commission

recommendation and its report is being translated into a note for Cabinet. “It in most likelihood will come up before the Cabinet tomorrow (We-nesday),” an official had said. The government had in January set up the high-powered panel to process the recommen-dations of the 7th Pay Commission which will have bearing on the re-muneration of nearly 50 lakh central government employees and 58 lakh pensioners.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYHiking salaries is OK, who’ll correct head-to-tail ratio?

If all goes to plan, the Cabinet will approve the Seventh Pay Commission’s whopping 24% hike in salaries on Wednesday for close to 5 million em-ployees and an equal amount of pensioners and, if all is given out this year, that’s an additional R1-lakh-crore stimulus or around 0.7% of GDP. Since this will also have to be given for teachers and PSU and state government employees, that will ensure a regular dose of stimulus for the next few years. Chambers of commerce will cheer it, markets will bounce back and little will be done to address the real issue of too many clerks in the government and too few officers which is the primary reason for service quality being so poor despite India’s large bureaucracy. In the end, since pay commissions are really about balancing the maximum demands of the bureaucracy with the minimum needed to keep it from revolting, the issue of fixing the head-to-tail ratio and implementing performance-linked-pay will be cursorily mentioned by the Eighth Pay Com-mission, and then the Ninth…No attempt, similarly, will be made to fix the issue of salaries. Even after their very generous pensions —which are adjusted for inflation every quarter and hiked dramatically every decade—top bureaucrats typically get paid much less compared to the private sector while the legion of peons, drivers, secretaries and teachers get paid 3-4 times as much; and with little pressure on performance, deliver very little. A government school teacher, before the pay panel award, with no experience gets paid R52,000 as compared to a mere R19,000 (at the top end) in the private sector; a fresh government nurse gets 3.4 times her private sector counterpart, a driver 1.8-2 times. It pays a lot more to be a doctor in a government hospital if you’re an MBBS but as the skill levels rise—to an MD or an MS—private jobs pay much more. As for the impact, as Kotak Institutional Equities points out, things are quite different from the last pay pan-el report in 2008. Halving of excise duties—from 16% to 8% between February 2008 and 2009—en-sured automobile prices were dropped significant-ly, a 425 bps cut in the policy rate in a span of just seven months made money much cheaper. The rural economy was also in far better shape, thanks to big hikes in MSPs, and with private sector investment peaking that year, overall sentiment was buoyant. Even so, a R1-lakh-crore stimulus will help, though this will have to be balanced by lower spending elsewhere. While that will play out as it will, the important question to ask when the Cabinet clears the pay panel award, is when the larger issues of right-sizing—and right-paying—the bureaucracy will happen. The hike in salaries and pensions of 4.8 million central government employees and 5.5 million pensioners can potentially set off a cycle of spending and investment, with people expected to use higher wages to buy cars and houses. The gov-ernment, which will approve higher salaries based on the seventh pay commission recommendations on Wednesday, would be hoping that the hike will prompt people to spend more and aid the broader economy revival. Industrial output has been incon-sistent in recent months. Factory output contracted again in April after a gap of two months.

“Suddenly, without any reason....the reason is not known even today, truce was declared. Never has any leader of the country made such a historic blunder. If Jawaharlalji had not declared a ceasefire at that time, the Kashmir issue would not have existed,”

- BJP president Amit Shah today blamed first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru accusing him of having committed a “historic blunder” on Kashmir, speaking at an event in the nehru Memorial Museum and Library (nMML) in new Delhi.

Microsoft might be coming up with Windows 10 Anniversary Update on August 2. The uncertainty is due to the fact that the company published a blog on Tuesday with just the headline and no content say-ing “Microsoft announces Windows 10 anniversary update available Aug. 2” and then pulled the story, which had no content, moments later. The company might have pulled the story due to incorrect date or it could be a case of clicking the publishing button before the content was written. It is therefore uncer-tain whether Microsoft would release the update on August 2 or not. The update will be free for Win-dows 10 users but will cost $119 (around Rs. 8,000) to those who will upgrade from previous versions of Windows. The company announced the Windows 10 Anniversary Update back in March during its annual Build conference and showcased how the update will improve the use of stylus with Windows Ink and other notable enhancements for its browser Edge.

Like a lion-hearted Sri Lankan, 38-year-old Sangakkara picks Aravinda de Sil-va ahead of good friend Mahela Jayawardene for the No. 5 position. “I and Mahela both feel Ara-vinda has been the best in this position,” Sanga-kkara explains. De Silva is also the captain of the team. While Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitha-ran and Wasim Akram walked into his all-time XI, Sangakkara was a

bit circumspect on the choice of his second spe-cialist seamer in his team. He finally went with former teammate Cha-minda Vaas, who pipped Australian great Glenn McGrath. Kumar Sanga-kkara’s All-Time XI (in batting order): Matthew Hayden, Rahul Drav-id, Brian Lara, Ricky Ponting, Aravinda de Silva (captain), Jacques Kallis, Adam Gilchrist, Shane Warne, Muralitha-ran, Wasim Akram and Chaminda Vaas.

“There is no more terrible thing than to live and have one’s being under the shad-ow of a man-eater...” wrote the legendary Jim Corbett in his classic ‘Maneaters of Kumaon’ in 1944. Fear sinks deep in a countryside which is known to harbor a man-killing big cat. Many a wildlife enthusiast in recent months has shown a brisk readiness to assail any move by Forest De-partments across states to deal with such ‘problem’ animals. While vigilantism serves to keep the system on its toes, sweeping and indiscriminate criticism only compounds the chal-lenges in wildlife manage-ment.

The Gujarat health depart-ment has made it manda-tory for all medical col-leges, district hospitals, community health centres and other government in-stitutes where the facility is available, to conduct sonographies for preg-nant women at least once during their second and third trimester. Private radiology centres will be roped in if the facility is not available at govern-ment health institutes. Ac-cording to authorities, the move has been taken in order to identify high-risk birth conditions, and with medical intervention, help in its timely prevention.

This will also enable the health department with the early detection of birth defects, and pro-vide their remedies when possible. To implement this decision, the health department has issued a directive on June 10 to all districts stating, “Dis-trict hospital, sub district hospital or wherever the sonography machine is available and for gynaeo-cologist or radiologist are also available to conduct sonography, at such plac-es it is important to con-duct sonography of each pregnant w omen at least once.” “From this, we can identify pregnancies with higher risks, keep a tab on

As part of its Skill De-velopment Programme, the Border Security Force (BSF) will train 800-1000 youths from three border districts of Gujarat – Pa-tan, Banaskantha and Kutch – for employment in defence and paramil-itary forces, said a Gu-jarat government release Tuesday.

ing at its campuses in Gandhinagar, Dantiwada, Bhuj and Gandhidham. The training will include preparation for physical capability, physical train-ing, written examination and escort duty.

They will be trained on 12 subjects,” Rupani said. “The subjects will include the BJP’s history from the Jana Sangh era, workers and their methods, the government’s achieve-

ments, (RSS ideologue Deendayal Upadhyay’s) Ekatma Manav Darshan, and a session on Free Dis-cussion and Media Man-agement that includes social media.” He added, “Workers will for the first time be given certificates as trained workers. This will build a trained ideo-logical cadre of the par-ty.” He rejected the idea that a certified worker would get preference for a party ticket in the 2017 elections. After the re-

cent state executive of the party in Mehsana recent-ly, the district executives would also be completed soon, he said. Announc-ing programmes of the party in the coming days Rupani said that from July 4 to July 6, 24,000 party workers would be visiting 48,000 booths, often ac-companied by senior par-ty leaders. “The workers will hold meetings at the booth level,” he said. “On July 4-5, there will be a meeting of party MPs, both from RS and LS, at Ahmedabad which will be attended by party lead-ers like V Satish, Dinesh Sharma, CM Anandiben Patel and me. Various is-sues like the role of MPs, their issues and MPs’ Adarsh Gram Yojana will be discussed,” he added.

So, sonography should be conducted on every preg-nant woman at least once in the second and third trimester,” the directions issued by the department further stated. “Though the availability of a gy-naecologist and a radiol-ogist is essential for con-ducting sonography at government health cen-

tres, the department has even allowed the same to be conducted at a private radiology centre in case of non-availability of medical expert or infra-structure. This is basical-ly aimed at economically lower sections who either cannot afford the medi-cal assistance or are not aware about these medi-cal check-ups that should be undertaken on a regu-lar basis,” said additional director (family welfare) Dr N B Dholakia.

on the book was filed by a social worker Narsinh Solanki, who contended that the book is meant to “defame” Modi. Solanki alleged that the contents and the title of the book are defamatory and de-rogatory in nature and they would spoil the im-age of the Prime Minis-ter. According to Solanki, Modi came to power just two years back, a time-frame too short to fulfil all the promises he made during the poll campaign.

Solanki sought the court’s intervention to put an im-mediate ban on the sale of the book, which is in the market since last few months. However, not convinced with the ar-guments of Solanki, the judge said that India is a democracy and people have all the right to ex-press their personal views through a book. The court held that banning the book would violate the right of freedom of ex-pression.

Now, they become more care-less about their life, career and studies. All they love to do now is Jalsa. And when their parents come to know about them they cut off with their parents. Soon, their dream world collapse. They waste their money in smoking and drinking.

nomic aspects, forest and revenue land interface, myriad governmental ju-risdictions, an expanding human population and its needs all play their part. It is hence import-ant to segregate it from the issue of immediate and day-to-day wildlife management. The latter, which needs prompt and effective action, cannot be held hostage to the intransigence of the for-mer. Nothing impacts the long-term success of wildlife conservation like

local community support and goodwill, and prompt action to protect this sac-rosanct pillar of conser-vation becomes inescap-able in cases of conflict, most imperatively in that most grave of circum-stances: a human kill. This rather wide detour was to give context to the subject at hand: why con-servation of the Asiatic Lion in India’s Sasan Gir National Park and sur-rounding areas is one of the world’s greatest con-servation success stories.
