Will the scooter lifter tell a story?

The bomb blast at Keishampat left behind three injured persons and a completely burnt scooter. The bomb was planted in the tool box of the two wheeler.

The bomb blast at Keishampat left behind three injured persons and a completely burnt scooter. The bomb was planted in the tool box of the two wheeler. Would the owner have given the vehicle willingly if he knew it would be used in planting and subsequent blasting of a bomb? Whose scooter could it be? Police have known that the scooter did not have chassis number. Did the executor of the plan deliberately erase the chassis to do away with the link between the owner of the vehicle and the incident? As there is no chassis number the law enforcing agencies will find uphill task in tracking down the owner of the scooter. In Mumbai the owner of an Ambassador car, which was used in blasting bomb could be established from the chassis number. The mangled body of the car revealed the chassis number and the Hindustan Motors the manufacturing company of the brand car could exactly spot the agent to which the car was given and the agent in turn located the buyer. But when the police went to arrest the owner of the car within two hours of the bomb blast the entire family had fled to Dubai. Police swift action was outsmarted but the family known as Tiger Memon had been shattered. Mumbai blast claimed more than 100 lives. One of the family members who had connection with the terrorist Dawood readily extended help in carrying out the deadly attack, which killed innocent people. The car packed with explosive materials was parked in front of a cinema hall. It is unfortunate some elements have started using crowded area in Manipur for carrying out their nefarious design of attacking security men. In spite of series of dharnas and protests launched by people of the state not to plant bombs at the area where local people inhabit these elements resort to the same tactics of hurling hand grenade or planting of bomb at the gate be it for demanding extortion money or for causing intimidation. As if they are stone without eyes and ear they act according to their whims without listening to the demand of the common people. They do not attempt to go together with the masses. No fish can swim in the lake where there is no water. Father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi could carry the entire masses in his fight against the mighty Britishers because as he fought the mighty force his main concern was the safety of the masses. Therefore he launched bloodless war. Extremes can meet with extremes. They are born to do that. If they are fighting for a cause they must think of adopting the strategy to carry the masses along with them. That can be achieved by doing self introspection. Such bomb blast in the crowded area will not yield good result. Rather it will end up getting condemnation from all sections of the society. Let it be the last one and nothing of this nature must happen. The state is fed up with the crimes of such nature. Should not we learn from the mistake committed?

12 hour bandh disrupts life in NE

IMPHAL, Sept 6: The 12-hour Northeast shutdown call given by the Northeast Students’ Organisation (NESO) evoked a near total response as normal life in Manipur was hit by the strike on Thursday.
The shutdown was imposed by NESO to protest against the continue discrimination to the North Easterners in the mainland India.
In Manipur, the All Manipur Students’ Union, a constituent of NESO spearheading the strike in the state enforced it by blocking roads and burning tyres in different areas of the state.
Bandh supporters, mostly AMSU volunteers blocked roads and burnt tyres at places like Singjamei, Kakwa, Sagolband Uripok, Nagamapal and Thangmeiband in Imphal which were totally affected by the 12-hour bandh imposed in protest against racial profiling of the Northeast people residing in different parts of mainland India.
Vehicular movement in the Imphal city was brought to a grinding halt. All the Government establishments remained closed during the course of the bandh which started at 5 a.m. and ended at 5 p.m. All the markets were shutdown and educational institutions were also closed. All the financial institutions including private banks were also paralysed due to the strike.
However, the NESO relaxed essential services including medical related activities, media, religious ceremonies and occasions during the shutdown.
In protest against the discrimination of North Easterners in the mainland India and also demanding the deportation of illegal Bangladeshi immigrants from the region, the 12-hour bandh of North East Students’ Organisation (NESO) in the states of the region on Thursday affected normal life.
Except for Assam and Tripura, the 12-hour NESO sponsored bandh was strong in Nagaland, Manipur, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram.
In Nagaland, Mizoram, Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh and Manipur, business establishments were closed and educational institutions did not operate. However, thin traffics were witnessed. In Tripura, the bandh was partial.
Meanwhile, shouting slogans such as “Bangladeshis go back, “Deport Bangladeshis”, “Save the North East region,” “Update the National Register of Citizens,” “Implement all clauses of the Assam Accord,” “Stop discriminating the people of the North East”, around 30 thousand people led by NESO leaders took out a rally from Latasil of Guwahati today at around 11 am.
Student leaders from the region who conglomerated at Latasil gave fiery speeches asking from the state governments as well as the Central government to formulate effective mechanism to “save the Northeast region” from foreigners.
Representing the Northeast MPs Forum, Birendra Prasad Baishya, a Rajya Sabha MP advocated for the prevention of foreigners influx into the region. He said illegal immigration should be stopped immediately. Birendra Prasad Baishya also said the influx of foreigners into the region has threatened the very existence of the North East people and their lands.
“Given the seriousness of the influx, we have been raising it all along in the Parliament. We all must have to save Assam to save the north-east,” Baishya stated.
Fuming over the failure by the successive governments both in Assam and at New Delhi to implement fully the Assam Accord of 1985, NESO leader Samujjal Bhattacharya said unless the Accord if implemented successfully, problems will persist.
Seeing the mammoth turn-out of today rally, the NESO leader said that the peoples response to today’s protest rally indicated that “we are concerned about the situation” where foreigners are overshadowing the indigenous people.
Samujjal also said that the continuing influx of foreigners into the region is a threat to the integrity of India.
On August 23 in Guwahati, issues on the illegal immigrants in the north east region, the prolonging fencing process of the government of India along the Indo-Bangla border and a policy to ensure the safety of the north east people in the mainland India were disccused in the NESO meeting.
The NESO units from all the North Eastern states participated in that meeting where they had deliberated that the government of India should ensure to check the influx of foreigners illegally in the north east region. The need to have a comprehensive policy to detect and deport the illegal immigrants from the north east region should be made by the government of India was also stressed in the meeting.
The NESO leaders had also pointed out the prolonging period to complete the fencing work in the Indo-Bangla border when the same could be done in the Indo-Pakistan border within a short period. “There are so many porous areas in the Indo Bangla border which have been serving as gate-ways for illegal immigrants,” one of the NESO functionary had said.

Dimapur, Sept 6 NNN : There was a factional gun battle between NSCN factions in Dimapur today. Two cadres of NSCN-Khaplang were injured in the clash between the outfit with another NSCN faction led by Khole and Kitovi at a place called Thahekhu in Dimapur at around 7 am which lasted till 9 am.
According to an intelligence source, two sergeant majors of the NSCN-K identified as Mario Anal and James Kikon sustained bullet wounds in the clash. The official source informed that grenades and sophisticated weapons were used in the clash by both the warring groups.
It all began when NSCN-Khole/Kitovi group attacked the cadres of Khaplang faction at a house in Thahekhu, around 5 kilometres south of Dimapur main market. According to the source, one Khethovi, who was a town command of NSCN-Khole/Kitovi group in Dimapur had defected to Khaplang camp few weeks ago. In the last two days, Khethovi along with 30 cadres were camping in a house at Thahekhu village. On learning this, the rival group i.e, Khole/Kitovi faction of the NSCN attacked with heavy weapons including explosives on the house where NSCN-K cadres were camping.
The Khaplang group returned the ambush from the rival faction. In the ensuing gun battle the two sergeant majors of the Khaplang group were hurt. The clash continued for nearly hours, civil organisations and local clubs along with the church bodies intervened. While the civil organisations were trying their best to stop the clash, the Assam Rifles personnel also rushed in. At last the warring NSCN factions stopped.The Assam Rifles personnel tried to arrest the cadres of both the NSCN groups but the civil organisations prevented them from doing so. Vehicles were arranged by these civil organisations and took the NSCN-K cadres to a safer locality while the injured persons have been admitted in a hospital. It is speculated the NSCN cadres have been taken to their camp at Zunheboto.
On September 3, the NSCN-K as a gesture of “good faith” and in the “larger interests of the people” released self-style Sgt. Maj. Botai Wangnaoham s/o late Tampha Wangnaoham of Pumao village who hails from NSCN-Khole/Kitovi group unharmed in presence of local leaders and his family members.

Mail News Service
New Delhi, Sep 6 : The Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER) Paban Singh Ghatowar has said that Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs approved implementation of North East Rural Livelihood Project (NERLP) on 16th November 2011 at an estimated cost of Rs 683.2 crore, comprising assistance as a soft loan from the World Bank of Rs 614.8 crore and Central Government funding of Rs 68.4 crore, in two selected districts each of four States of Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim and Tripura.
In a written reply in the Rajya Sabha today Ghatowar said, North East Rural Livelihood Project has become effective in March, 2012. Recruitment process for Regional Project Monitoring Unit and eight District Project Management Units is in final stages.
He said, objective of NERLP is to improve rural livelihoods especially that of women, unemployed youth and of most disadvantaged; by providing access to economic opportunities, improving adoption of sustainable agricultural and natural resource management through establishing participatory and accountable community based institutions. Targeted outcome indicators of project development objectives are:-
(i) At least 60% of women Self Help Group members achieve minimum increase of 30% in income, in real terms by end of project.
(ii) At least 30% of project-benefited unemployed youths are employed.
(iii) At least 50% of disadvantaged households achieve minimum of 30% improvement in livelihood indices from entry into the project.
The Minister said, the project aims at providing resources to engage various private and public sector organizations who in turn will assist Producer Organizations and Self Help Groups to access better market information and latest technology, obtain higher returns for their produce and help communities align their produce better with market demands. Following strategies are proposed for marketing and for establishing marketing linkages around them:
Ø support for production cluster development, collective marketing, market infrastructure development, market
intelligence collection, analysis and dissemination;
Ø value chain analysis and linkage support;
Ø public-private partnership;
Ø linkage with nodal agencies to facilitate marketing;
The Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER) Paban Singh Ghatowar has said that North East Rural Livelihoods Project (NERLP) will involve local community in Forest & Natural Resources Management. NERLP envisages empowering and enabling traditional institutions and building
modern management capacities within them. The communities will be able to develop new resource management plans that address forest conservation and livelihood issues and also protect biodiversity in a manner that respect indigenous rights to natural resources and livelihood needs.
In a written reply in the Rajya Sabha today Shri Ghatowar said, procedure for identifying and sanctioning community based natural resource management programme in States covered under NERLP namely, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim and Tripura, will include supporting community efforts for intensifying land productivity, especially in sites where terracing and irrigation are possible. Agro forestry system with a mix of commercial products including timber, fibre, spice, and medicinal plant will help to generate income, taking pressure of steeper slopes and allowing for longer fallow periods in areas of jhum (shifting cultivation). Development of water sources, both surface and ground water resources, like springs, ponds, natural flows, managing watersheds will be taken up.
Conduct of Impact Assessment Studies through Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) shall be carried out during the consolidation phase of Project, the Minister added.
Paban Singh Ghatowar has said that Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region has already sought exemption from earmarking 2% of funds for Scheduled Caste Sub Plan (SCSP), since no meaningful programme can be implemented with this meagre amount, which comes to Rs. 4.10 crore only and to Rs. 2.50 crore in case Externally Aided Projects outlay is excluded. Moreover, most of the schemes of this Ministry are in the nature of infrastructure project, benefits of which cover all segments of the society viz. SC/ST, women etc. Accordingly, no allocation is earmarked under SCSP and Tribal Sub-Plan.
In a written reply in the Rajya Sabha today Shri Ghatowar said, notwithstanding this, Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region is insisting that due representation to SC/ST youth is given in training programmes conducted under its scheme ‘Capacity Building & Technical Assistance’, under which training to unemployed youth of North Eastern Region is supported. Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region is not required to earmark funds under Tribal Sub-Plan.
