Lashkar behind Nowgam attack: CRPF
Srinagar, December 12 In the four deadly attacks (including Wednesday’s) carried out this year by militants at different spots on the stretch, 15 security forces personnel, including eight Army men, six CRPF and one BSF personnel, have been killed. This stretch of the highway is secured by the CRPF. The stretch is on the border line of three districts — Srinagar, Budgam and Pulwama. Security forces say militants disappear easily in these districts after attacking Army and CRPF convoys on this route. “They keep changing their hideouts. They come from one district to attack and later hide in another district,” a source said. Security officials in Kashmir claim that most of the attacks on the stretch have been carried out by a militant module from south Kashmir. About yesterday's attack, CRPF Inspector General P K Singh today said, "Though the investigation into yesterday's attack is being conducted by the J&K Police, our inputs say that the Lashkar-e-Toiba’s militant module of south Kashmir carried out the attack on the bypass which left an Assistant Sub Inspector dead and a jawan injured.’’ “The militant who attacked the ASI had concealed his assault rifle in a bag and before firing at him, he even spoke to the CRPF officer,” Singh added. The IG said it was a matter of concern that militants could come so close to paramilitary men on duty and carry out the attack. “It is serious concern for the security agencies,” he said. Police sources said raids were being conducted at various places in three districts of Budgam, Srinagar and Pulwama to nab the militants involved in the attack . “The militant module which carried out the attack yesterday has been operating in three districts of Budgam, Srinagar and Pulwama,” said a police source. The police suspects that the module is also behind the killing of station house officer Shabir Ahmad in central Kashmir’s Budgam district on December 2. Meanwhile, a wreath-laying ceremony was held at the Recruit Training Centre in Humhama on the outskirts of the city to pay homage to the slain CRPF ASI Udit Narayan. His body was later sent to his home state.

Efforts for state’s self-reliance to continue: Omar
Addressing a public gathering at Lalpora village in north Kashmir’s Kupwara district, the Chief Minister said the gun had inflicted great injuries to the state both humanly and economically. “Our development remained standstill while other states went much ahead on the road to progress during the period of militancy which gripped the state for over 20 years,” he said. Omar said his government worked sincerely and with commitment to get the economy back on the rails and make good the losses and the damage caused by the gun. “We worked for the restoration of peace, took sincere efforts to safeguard human rights, reform the security and law and order machinery, create employment opportunities for youth, and launch new power projects during the last about five years, which have started showing encouraging results on the ground,” he said. |

Panches to support groups like AAP in polls
Srinagar, December 12 “We are highly impressed with the way the AAP performed in Delhi election. If there are groups like AAP, who will contest polls in the state, we will support them,” provincial president, All Jammu and Kashmir Panchayat Conference (AJKPC), Bashir Ahmed Malik told reporters here. Malik, however, said in the absence of any such party, the organisation will decide upon whom to support in the elections. “If we do not have such choices of candidates, the executive committee of the body will decide whom we shall support,” he said. The AJKPC provincial president said they were fed up of the current dispensation and added that the organisation has vowed to teach coalition partners National Conference and the Congress a lesson. “We have vowed to teach both the NC and the Congress a lesson. It is they who have become a hurdle in the empowerment of panchayats in Jammu and Kashmir,” Malik said. He alleged that panches and sarpanches were made “scapegoats” by the government and added that the whole exercise to conduct panchayat polls was attempted to portray a better image of Jammu and Kashmir at the international level. “It was the wrong propaganda of the government due to which our six sarpanches have been killed so far. But our intention to participate (panchayat) elections was only to serve the people at grass roots level,” he insisted. |

Jammu, December 12 State BJP chief spokesman and member of national executive council Dr Jitendra Singh today said, “First of all, the contention itself is erroneous because the constitution of J&K came into force on 26 January, 1957, and secondly, the Republic Day on January 26 was observed to commemorate the Constitution of India, which has precedence over the constitution of J&K and the state constitution itself acknowledges this fact.” “The PIL has been deliberately filed by persons with vested interests in the wake of a countrywide debate on the merits and demerits of Article 370,” Jitendra said. The timing as well as the motive behind the PIL vindicates the widely held view that Article 370, instead of serving as a bridge between the state and the rest of India as claimed by certain political parties such as the National Conference, has in fact provided ground for separatist and semi-separatist tendencies to grow, he added. The BJP leader said the mindset behind the misguided PIL is also a vindication of the argument that Article 370 has not only created physical but also psychological barriers to the ultimate disadvantage of the people of the state. — TNS |

Police to launch crackdown on unauthorised use of red beacons
Jammu, December 12 “As per the directions of the Supreme Court, only the specific high dignitaries will be authorised to use red lights on the top of their vehicles. The red beacons can only be used on the vehicles by the Governor, Chief Minister, Chief Justice and Judges of high court, Chairman, Speaker and Cabinet ministers. We will launch a massive crackdown on violations in this regard,” Shakeel Ahmed
Beig, the Deputy Inspector-General (DIG) of Police, Jammu, said in an official statement issued here today. The DIG said in case of emergency duties, such as ambulance services, fire services, emergency maintenance and police vehicles used as escorts or pilots or for law and order duty, the vehicles would be entitled to use blue, white and
multi-coloured lights only instead of red lights. “Anybody violating the directions of the Supreme Court would be sternly punished under law by the police,” Beig said. The Chief Minister, who had advocated for removing red beacons from official vehicles, wrote on
micro-blogging site Twitter: “As of yesterday the red beacons have been removed from all the vehicles in my cavalcade. I hope others will follow this example now.” He had also written, “It’s amazing how some people are married to this symbol of power. If the PM doesn't need a red beacon, why should anyone else." “I must admit I'll be happy to see this red beacon culture go. I never use one on my private vehicles and don't see the need for one anyway,” he had added. Yesterday, the DGP had also removed the red light from his official vehicle and ordered beacons removed from vehicles of police officials in the state following the Supreme Court ruling. On Tuesday, the apex court had ruled that red beacons could be used only on vehicles of high constitutional dignitaries and blue or
multi-coloured lights should be used only on emergency services and police vehicles. |

Protest turns violent after police use ‘undue’ force
Anantnag, December 12 Earlier, a large number of people gathered near the Jammu-Srinagar national highway, running through the town, to lodge their protest against the deteriorating power scenario. The protesters blocked the Srinagar-Jammu national highway for not more than 15 minutes when the police and other administrative officials reached the spot. While the protesters were talking to a senior official of the district administration, a senior police official allegedly ordered a lathicharge. “The police went on the rampage,” said a local, adding, “They not only thrashed the protesters, but also broke window panes of many vehicles parked in the vicinity.” The alleged high-handedness by the police irked the locals, who in turn resorted to stone-throwing. The police and the CRPF clashed with the locals for more than two hours, during which the traffic
flow on the highway remained suspended. The locals questioned the use of “undue” force by the police. “Are we not allowed to even demand essential services?” asked a protester. “We don’t get even a single minute of electricity throughout the day and not more than a couple of hours of power supply during the night,” he said. There have been many protests against the pesky power scenario in many parts of the Kashmir valley in the last one week. People have been alleging that politicians forget people in the Valley after moving to Jammu. The protesters in Bijbehara said they did not get more than two hours of power supply a day in the past fortnight. “We have been forced to take to the streets. We don’t have any other option,” said a protester. The PDD officials maintained that some maintenance work was going on due to which they had to snap electricity during the day. “During evening hours, we have to make sure there is no overloading,” said a senior official of the PDD. “It will take more than a week to resume the normal power supply to the area.” |

HC stays order on re-evaluation
Srinagar, December 12 The division bench of the high court comprising Justice Mohammad Yaqoob Mir and Justice Muzaffar Hussain Attar, which passed the orders today, also directed the BOPEE to keep the whole record available when it is expected to hear the case for final consideration on December 17. These directions have come in the wake of an appeal by the BOPEE against the orders of a single bench of Justice Ali Mohammad Magrey. While directing the board to disclose the answer key to the aggrieved student Qazi Basara, who appeared in this year’s entrance examination, Justice Magrey in his detailed orders on November 30 also told the board to set its home right immediately, cautioning it that “enough is enough”. While arguing his appeal before the division bench today, BOPEE Standing counsel GA Lone submitted that the issue
was already settled by the board. He said on the representation of the particular student and others, the board authorities had already done the re-evaluation two times and awarded the marks to the candidate accordingly. He also questioned the single bench orders while submitting that the court could not order the re-evaluation as, according to him, the discretion for re-examining or re-evaluation lay with the board.
After hearing both sides and admitting the appeal, the bench directed that the orders of the single bench should be “kept in abeyance” till December 17, when it was expected to hear the arguments for the final disposition of
the appeal.

Eyeing polls, Govt to speed up regularisation of illegal colonies
Jammu, December 12 The decision has been lying pending for the last several years and facing the worst infrastructural problems. Officials said the survey process of these colonies was being expedited to push the agenda in the coming board meeting of the
Jammu Development Authority (JDA). A few months back, a high-level committee, headed by the Commissioner/Secretary, Housing and Urban Development Department, was constituted by the government for the conduct of survey and other formalities, but so far the process is going on at a snail's pace. Sources said these colonies contained a
huge vote bank and played an important role in elections. "There is much resentment among the people as they feel that the government has always taken them for a ride. Orders have now come to proceed quickly on the issue, even if some compromises have to be made with the people," said an official source in the Urban Development Department (UDD). The 20 unauthorised colonies, under the jurisdiction of the Jammu Development Authority and J&K Housing Board, identified for regularisation are Sanjay Nagar, Balmiki Colony, Shiva Colony, Channi Rama, Kacha Talab, Goswami Colony, Hyderpura (Janipura), Puran Nagar, Vikas Nagar, Shant Nagar, Qasim Nagar, Kabir Colony (BC Road), Indira Colony (Janipura) Gorkha Nagar, Jogigate, portion of Gujjar Nagar, Basant Vihar, Gorkha Nagar Extn Bahu Fort, Mohallah Masjid Bagh-e-Bahu, Nai Basti and Rampura. Vice-Chairman, JDA, KL Khajuria said survey was in the final stage of completion. "We have almost completed our field work and now the decision has to be taken by the JDA board. It will allow us to check encroachment of land and provide better civic amenities," Khajuria said. Under terms of regularisation laid by the government, unauthorised occupation of state land up to the maximum of 1 kanal by a single family may be considered, but land occupants must be a permanent resident of J&K and should have constructed residential house latest by March 31, 2013. Further unauthorised occupation of land in excess of 1 kanal by any single family should be surrendered to the Jammu and Kashmir Housing Board and Jammu Development Authority (JDA). |

SMC seeks clerics’ cooperation for curbing use of loudspeakers
Srinagar, December 12 Talking to the Tribune, SMC Chief Enforcement Officer Hakeem Aijaz Ali said initially, they had sought cooperation from muftis, other religious heads and organising committees of religious places. Later, he said the SMC would act tough following the receipt of complaints. Ali said acting on complaints, the SMC would depute its team to seize loudspeakers. It would initiate strict action under the laws of the corporation. He said action would also be taken against
the use of loudspeakers and firecrackers during weddings. The SMC has sought cooperation from the religious heads through notices published in the local dailies. In the notice, the SMC has pointed out that the use of loudspeakers and firecrackers in weddings was causing inconvenience to sick persons, students and pregnant women. With the notices, the civic body has appealed to the religious heads and organising committees of the religious places to cooperate so that the ‘grave situation’ was put under control. The general public too has been advised to cooperate and play the role of responsible citizens. Even though the use of loudspeakers at the religious places has raised many eyebrows, much action has not been taken in this regard by
the authorities concerned due to the sensitivity of the issue. The trend of using firecrackers during weddings has picked up in the summer capital in the past couple of years, causing inconvenience to the
public. |

Efforts on to improve healthcare sector: CM
Srinagar, December 12 Inaugurating advanced diagnostic and treatment equipment and other patientcare facilities at the Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Science (SKIMS), Soura, the CM said, “While priority attention is being given to improve and upgrade healthcare facilities in the rural areas, the equal thrust is on providing modern health gadgets in the hospitals of tertiary care nature.” Omar said by upgrading rural hospitals and health centres, the huge population living in the villages would not be travelling to towns and cities for the treatment which could be provided to them in their native villages. “This aspect has been focused and the expansion and consolidation of healthcare centres is carried forward simultaneously besides providing specialists and paramedics in the government hospitals all across the state,” he said. The centrally-sponsored flagship programme and various state-sponsored schemes are being implemented to achieve the results and enhance treatment facility for the patients in the rural areas, he said. He asked the doctors to render their service with the highest degree of responsibility and commitment towards society. Focus on improving
state’s financial health
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today highlighted the need of upgrading the financial status of the state to generate adequate resources for development projects. The CM said this after inaugurating the building complex of the Excise and Commercial Taxes (ECT), constructed at a cost of over Rs 34.5 crore, at Solina here. “The gap between the resources and expenditure puts a big hurdle to take up the development projects in hand and complete them in a fixed time frame. The funds received from the Centre are earmarked for the identified schemes and the untied funds are insufficient to cater to the particular needs of the people in a particular area,” he said. “While the state is thankful for the financial assistance provided by the Union Government for the development purpose, yet there is need that the state catapults its own resource generation to give a fillip to the development activities,” Omar said. The CM expressed the hope that State Finance Minister, Abdul Rahim Rather who is also the Chairman of the Empowered Committee of State Finance Ministers of India, would use his office to get additional share of taxes from the Centre Government to the state. |

State told to identify specific needs in areas of gender, equity
Jammu, December 12 It claimed that there had been little understanding of gender and equity issues in all three regions of the state. Recently, a nine-member JRM team visited the state and later, conducted a meeting in Delhi to make certain recommendations in this regard. “In Kargil, there are still issues of access, enrolment and a high dropout rate that need to be addressed, both in terms of working with the community and taking on board survival and subsistence issues,” a JRM study said. “In Leh, while girls’ participation is not a critical issue, the role of the school and its own ability in developing skills and aspirations among girls seems to be limited,” it said. The JRM further claimed that in Jammu district, it was reported that parents concerned about co-education in the middle and secondary classes, as a result of which there was dropout among girls. The study maintained that the absence of gender trainings was reflected in the nature of work that had taken place in the Sarava Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA). The JRM claimed that there was a little evidence of concern for special or inclusive education. Out of the 57 programmes outlined in the action plan 2013-14 for the District Institute of Education and Training (DIETs) by the State Institute of Education (SIE), Kashmir, not a single programme was directed to either of these two issues. “At the SIE, Jammu, the issue of education of nomadic children came up. The concern was that there needs to be coordination between Chief Education Officers (CEOs) in various districts. While mobile teachers have been appointed, the system is not working smoothly as there are months when children are absent or then teachers are idle,” the JRM said. |

Water bodies in Pulwama encroached upon
Pulwama, December 12 The violations particularly increase in the winters as water level in streams recedes. And it is during this period that some people encroach upon these water bodies by constructing bunds and filling up the area with soil. In one such act of violation, Nullah Parigam which was 15 to 25 feet wide has been shrunk to few feet. “Nullah Parigam is dying, as are several other streams in the area which have been completely ignored by the government over the years,” said Wali Mohamamad, a resident of Newa village, which lies on the banks of the water body. “The water of the nullah was safe to drink a few decades ago, but it has become so polluted today that people don’t even dare to bathe in it.” The encroachments are also going along the stream at Talangam and other villages. “Pulwama is known for its network of fresh water streams. These water bodies irrigate vast areas of land and are a source of potable water for the people,” social activist and Chairman, District Development Forum, Abdul Rahim Khan said. “It is unfortunate that people are behaving irrationally. They are not thinking about the future generation,” he said. Executive Engineer, Pulwama, Munu Karwal said they were taking necessary action against the encroachers for violating the Water Act. “We have already issued challans against violators in Awantipora and Wanpora. The department would continue the drive to restore the water bodies,” Karwal said. |

Kashmir most beautiful, most abused place: Ketan Bhagat
Ketan Bhagat, who is noted author Chetan Bhagat’s brother, was in Srinagar to launch the January-2014 batch of a Chandigarh-based educational institute “Aryans”. Talking to the Tribune on the sidelines of the function, Ketan asked the people of the Kashmir valley, particularly youth, to get educated and move out for jobs and other opportunities awaiting them. “I was living outside India and came back just three years ago and so, my perception about Kashmir is related to bomb blasts, firing and killings. Howewer, that is not always the case when one comes and personally observes things on ground in Kashmir,” said Ketan, who is in the Valley for the first time. He said after penning down his novel about seven months ago, he has now started visiting interiors of India. “I feel happy to be in Srinagar. However, my opinion is still that Kashmir is like a beautiful daughter who is being eyed by everyone. The politicians of the country have also not done any good to this place,” he said. “Kashmir, which has a lot of potential and is the most beautiful place, is unfortunately also the most abused and ignored place in the country,” he said, adding that Kashmir did not get what it deserved. My message to the people of Kashmir is that they should not bother about the politics surrounding their place, said Ketan. “It has been almost seventy years and we still have not arrived at a solution to the Kashmir issue and I also fear that there won’t be any solution.” “I would like to see people here, particularly the youth, get themselves educated and look after their lives and ignore everything else. I would also like them to move out of this place, out of the country, find jobs, and send money back home
to make this place prosperous,” Ketan suggested, adding that is how the whole nation
had prospered. Ketan said he is currently working on his second novel, which is based on father-child relationship. “I am enjoying being an author and getting love and criticism for my first novel,” he signed off. |
