St Stephen's molestation row:Principal Thampu offers to resignNEW DELHI

Facing criticism over handling of the research scholarmolestation case, St Stephen's principal Valson Thampuon Monday said he would resign if it was proved that"he was a cause of embarrassment to the institution".

Thampu, who is facing demands for resignation forallegedly pressurising the victim to withdraw the com-plaint, said he had full faith in the Delhi Police andslammed the "extra-judicial pressure".

"If I am a cause of embarrassment to the institutionand it is objectively proved, I will put in my papers thatvery moment," Thampu, who has been embroiled incontroversies ever since he took over as college's prin-cipal in 2008, said.

Scores of students, teachers and women rightsactivists today took to the streets demanding his resig-nation over the issue.

On the protests, Thampu said, "I want to be explicit insaying this. What is the need to mount extra-judicialpressure on the issue? What is the need to bring variousother organisations to disturb the peace of campus?"

"I have absolute trust in competent integrity of theDelhi Police but it seems to me that the complainant andforces working behind her have no trust," he added.

The research scholar, who has alleged she was molest-ed by a college professor and that Thampu had tried toshield him, approached police last week with fourrecordings that she claimed to have made during hermeetings with the principal who had allegedly pres-surised her to withdraw the complaint.

Demanding a CBI probe into the issue, Thampu hadyesterday claimed that the victim is being used againsthim by certain elements in college. He, however, did notreveal who those "certain people" are.

He had said that the "purported" recordings madepublic by the complainant are mischievously edited anda forensic investigation will clear the air.

Besides Thampu's resignation, the protesters alsodemanded that the research supervisor of victim bechanged immediately so her PhD doesn't suffer till thetime an enquiry is conducted into the matter.

IN BRIEF

NEW DELHIChief Minister Arvind

Kejriwal has reportedlywritten to Delhi's UrbanDevelopment Departmentto explore how a Greece-style referendum can beheld in the capital on theissue of full statehood.

In the note sent lastmonth, sources said, MrKejriwal sought a feasibil-ity report on how the capi-tal's people can be asked tovote on whether Delhishould be accorded fullstatehood and has also dis-cussed it with his minis-ters.

"Referendum for state-hood is necessary," saidAAP's Ashish Khaitantoday.

Delhi is not a full stateand some crucial functionslike policing are under theCentre's control. This hashad Mr Kejriwal's AamAadmi Party or AAP gov-ernment in constant con-frontation with the capital'sLieutenant GovernorNajeeb Jung, who repre-sents the Centre.

Over the last few monthsMr Kejriwal and Mr Junghave frequently clashedover key appointments and

often thrown the rule bookat each other.

Full statehood for Delhiwas one of the key pollpromises of the AamAadmi Party for theFebruary assembly elec-tions, which it resounding-ly won. The BJP wasreduced to just three seatsin a 70-member house andMr Kejriwal alleges that itis exacting politicalrevenge by using its pow-ers at the Centre to inter-fere with governance inDelhi.

The BJP too hasfavoured full statehood forDelhi in the past, butdropped the demand fromits manifesto for this year'selection, prompting AAPto allege that it had done sobecause it feared aKejriwal victory.

Soon after his victory,Mr Kejriwal had soughtappointments with PrimeMinister Narendra Modiand Union Home MinisterRajnath Singh, reportedlyto discuss full statehood.

Maken today said his partydoes not support a referen-dum and attacked MrKejriwal. "The entire ideais against the constitu-tion...Statehood idea is avery dangerous ideaKejriwal ji has given...thisidea is not only anti-consti-tutional but also anti-national," he said

The Congress, whichhad ruled Delhi for 15years till the 2013 elec-tions threw up a hungHouse, won no seat in theelections held this year.

NEW DELHIThere does not appear to be "foul

play" in the case of the dean of amedical college from MadhyaPradesh whose body was found in aDelhi hotel room on Sunday, said thecapital's police chief BS Bassi.

Arun Sharma, 64, was discovereddead on Sunday morning. The policein his home state said he had beenproviding valuable information in theVyapam scam, which is centred onbribes being paid to allow proxies totake entrance exams to colleges, andrecruitment exams for jobs in govern-ment departments. The investigationhas seen the deaths of 35 peoplelinked to it, including Mr Sharma.

Mr Sharma's autopsy was conduct-ed in a Delhi hospital today to ruleout any attempts at a cover-up. Hoursbefore his death, a journalist coveringthe Vyapam scam died after suddenly

taking unwell in the midst of an inter-view.

"Prima facie evidence did not sug-gest foul play," said the Delhi Policechief to reporters, adding that CCTVfootage from Mr Sharma's hotel isbeing examined.

Exactly a year before Mr Sharma'sdeath, the dean of the same collegehad died of severe burns at his resi-dence in what the police labelled asuicide.

The gruesomely lengthy line-up ofdeaths in the Vyapam scam has ledthe opposition Congress to demandthat the CBI be tasked to the inquiry,rather than the Madhya Pradeshpolice, whose probe is being super-vised by the High Court. "The ChiefMinister is responsible, he mustresign," said Congress leaderDigvijaya Singh, as others from hisparty asked why the Prime Ministerhas not yet spoken on what hassurged into a national controversyand concern.

PATNADemanding Prime Minister

Narendra Modi-led NDA govern-ment to make the caste-based Censusdata public, Bihar Chief MinisterNitish Kumar on Monday accusedthe BJP of indulging in caste-basedpolitics by concealing the details.

“They talk about caste for votebank. Nobody is a bigger casteist,communalist than BJP here. What'sthe point of releasing caste Census ifit's not even made public. This showstheir real intentions,” Kumar toldANI.

Launching a scathing attack on PMModi, Kumar further added, “Hebecame PM with talks on caste andso many claims about his caste. Heshould make the details of Censuspublic.”

Yesterday, Rashtriya Janata Dal(RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadavannounced that his party would com-pel the BJP to make the caste-basedCensus data public.

"Centre should make the casteCensus public instead of withholding

the data on numerical strength of dif-ferent castes," Lalu Prasad said whileaddressing his party workers here tocelebrate 19th anniversary of theRJD.

"People have right to know it andevery caste should know its strengthand weakness in terms of populationand other things," he said.

The release of caste data is consid-ered a political hot potato and thereare strong views for and against it,

which were voiced even five sixyears back, when the process for theSECC had begun during the UPAgovernment. The NDA governmenthad refrained from releasing thecaste-based data in its first SocioEconomic and Caste Census (SECC)and maintained that it was concernedwith economic data which will helpin effective implementation of itsprogrammes.

Despite more than 10alleged threats andattempts to kill him -including a recent warningthat he would be "cut intopieces" - AshishChaturvedi says he will notbudge from his mission:"Even if I die as a result, Iwant to name the big fish -starting with ChiefMinister Shivraj SinghChouhan."

Mr Chaturvedi, 26, anactivist, is one of four keywhistle-blowers in what isknown as the Vyapamscam, which has escalatedinto a national controversywith the deaths of 35 peo-ple linked to the scandal.

Recently, a court orderedthat Mr Chaturvedi be pro-tected for life by the

Madhya Pradesh police. "Iwill be the next mysteriousdeath," he said in hisneighbourhood in Gwalior,describing the securitygiven to him as a farce.Earlier, he had to ride pil-lion on a cycle with thepoliceman assigned to him.Today, a portly cop tries tokeep up as they bicyclethrough congested lanes.

In 2013, reports emergedthat bribes were being paidin Madhya Pradesh to toppoliticians and bureaucratsin exchange for allowingproxy candidates to takequalifying exams for gov-ernment jobs and colleges.The scam is being investi-gated by the MadhyaPradesh police under thesupervision of the HighCourt. The 35 deaths that

have racked up point to adark, ruthless cover-up, theopposition Congress says,demanding that the CBItake over the inquiry.

Mr Chaturvedi says hisown investigation began in2009, when his motherneeded treatment for can-cer. The doctors theyencountered seemed gross-

ly lacking in basic trainingand knowledge. Tip-offsabout doctors with fakedegrees accrued quickly. In2013, his evidence led to apolice case that blew thelid off an underbellyseething with connections,he says, to both the rulingBJP and the Congress.

At Risk of Death, Will Expose CM Chouhan: Vyapam Whistle-Blower

NEW DELHIWith a grisly line-up of

35 deaths of those withdirect or indirect links tothe Vyapam scam, the BJPis prepping its strategy tocounter the demand for theresignation of ChiefMinister Shivraj SinghChouhan.

Home Minister RajnathSingh today met with thebeleaguered ChiefMinister for an update onthe investigation by theMadhya Pradesh police,which has been investigat-ing the scam since 2013,under the supervision ofthe state's High Court.

"The High Court has todecide (on reassigning theinquiry to the CBI). ...howcan we order the SupremeCourt or the High Court (todo this)?" said the HomeMinister today.

The Vyapam scamlurched over the weekendto the very top of thenational agenda after ajournalist working on anexpose began frothing atthe mouth while conduct-ing an interview; he diedhours later.

The Vyapam swindle isbased on widespreadcheating - including the

use of proxies - in entranceexams for engineering andmedical colleges, andqualifying tests for govern-ment jobs.

Parliament meets on the21st for the monsoon ses-sion. The oppositionCongress had declared itwould disrupt proceedingsunless the governmentsacks Foreign MinisterSushma Swaraj andRajasthan Chief MinisterVasundhra Raje forextending favours to dis-graced cricket tycoon LalitModi, wanted in India forcorruption cases. MrChouhan's removal is like-ly to be added to theCongress' list.

The provenance of theVyapam scam can betraced to before MrChouhan, whose politicalprowess and popularity iswell-acknowledged. Theearliest cases of cheatingand of candidates beingallowed to use proxies inexams were registered inyears when the BJP wasnot in power; activists likeAshish Chaturvedi whohave helped expose thescam point out that "boththe Congress and the BJPplayed a role in the scam."

But the conspiracyseems to have expandedconsiderably in recentyears with Mr Chouhan ashead of the state.

Prime Minister Sharifwill attend the 15thShanghai CooperationOrganization (SCO) sum-mit in Ufa, Russia, on July9-10, the Pakistan ForeignOffice said in a statement.

"The Prime Minister willalso hold important bilater-al meetings on the side-lines of the SCO Summit,"it said.

A Pakistani official oncondition of anonymitysaid the Sharif-Modi meet-ing was likely to take placebut refused to give details.

Last week, Pakistan hadsaid no formal request wasmade by either side for ameeting but such interac-tions often take place onthe sidelines of multilateral

fora. "No side has contact-ed the other for a meetingso far. However, as youwould be aware, in anymultilateral setting, meet-ings among Heads of Stateand Government is a nor-mal feature," PakistanForeign OfficeSpokesperson QaziKhalilullah had said whenasked about the possibilityof a Sharif-Modi meetingin Russia.

Pakistan and India were

involved in a war of wordsrecently with leaders fromboth sides exchangingsharp comments afterPrime Minister Modi's crit-ical remarks aboutPakistan during his Dhakavisit last month and in thewake of India's militaryaction in Myanmar.

Prime Minister Modi hadcalled up Sharif last monthto greet him on the holymonth of Ramzan.

If the two leaders meet, it

would be their first face-to-face interaction since thetwo leaders shook hands inKathmandu at the SAARCSummit last year.

Modi had invited Shariffor his swearing-in cere-mony in 2013 and it wasexpected that the two sideswill resume the stalledpeace dialogue but therelations deteriorated lastyear with some of theworst clashes taking placeat the border.

Second TDP Lawmaker Arrestedin Cash-For-Votes Scam

BY G. SAMPATH

India is in the throes of a fierce passionfor governance. Not just any gover-nance but ‘maximum governance’;

preferably in a combo with ‘minimumgovernment’. We are the only country inthe world that officially celebratesChristmas as ‘Good Governance Day’.Nobody speaks of the need for a goodgovernment anymore – only good gover-nance.

Behind this mass enthusiasm for thevirtues of ‘good governance’ is noneother than the prime minister himself. Hisown website says so: “It is due toNarendra Modi that governance hasbecome the talking point all over thecountry; from the conversationsteenagers have over a cup of coffee toheated debated in newsrooms.”

While the degree to which adolescentsobsess about good governance may be amatter of debate, there is no doubt that itoccupies pride of place in the publicityspiels of the Modi regime — so much sothat it’s now a truism that the Modi man-date of the 2014 polls is “a mandate forgood governance”

But what exactly does ‘good gover-nance’ mean? According to Mr. Modi,“good governance is putting people at thecentre of the development process”.

Well, if that is what it is, then someobvious questions pop up, such as: Is itgood governance to eliminate the needfor people’s consent in land acquisition,as the NDA’s land bill amendments wantto do?

Mr. Modi has also said that good gover-nance must be ‘pro-people’ and ‘pro-active’. If so, then is pro-actively cuttingpublic expenditure on health and educa-tion, as has been done in this year’s budg-et, good governance? Or, for that matter,is the dilution of the rights of industrialworkers, which is what the proposedlabour reforms seek to do, good gover-nance?

The short answer to all these questionsis a resounding yes. For the long answer,we need to visit the history of the conceptof governance itself, and how it has cometo occupy such a central place in develop-ment discourse.A brief history of ‘governance’

The term ‘governance’ was first used— in the sense in which it is deployedtoday — by the World Bank in a 1989report on African economies. Trying toaccount for the failure of its Structural

Adjustment Programmes (SAPs), theWorld Bank put the blame on a “crisis ofgovernance.”

But ‘crisis of governance’ doesn’t con-vey much unless one defines ‘gover-nance’. The World Bank initially definedit simply as “the exercise of politicalpower to manage a nation’s affairs”. Thisearly definition is quite indicative of theanimating logic and future discursivecareer of governance: it is silent on thelegitimacy or otherwise of the politicalpower in question. So whether the Bank’sclient was a democracy or a dictatorshipdidn’t matter. What mattered for gover-nance is that efficient management musttrump politics. Efficient management,just to be clear, means the withdrawal ofthe state in favour of the market.

Over the years, the World Bankexpanded its ‘governance’ model toinclude elements of a liberal democracy,such as a legal framework for enforce-ment of contracts, accountability, etc. Atthe same time, it brokered a marriagebetween governance and development.Nations deemed to be in need of ‘devel-opment’ could now be told that the onlyway to get ‘development’ is through‘governance’ — that is, by embracing thefree market.

But for this, it was necessary to firstcreate a demand for good governance.That meant identifying the markers of‘bad governance’. Unfortunately, whatconstitutes ‘bad governance’ in the neo-liberal text book — an activist state try-ing to even out socio-economic dispari-ties through distributive justice — israther popular among the masses, espe-cially the poor. In an electoral democracy,a direct attack on welfare was nevergoing to resonate beyond the rich andmiddle-classes, as successive govern-ments in India have found to their cost.Corruption and governance

Enter corruption, the godfather of goodgovernance. ‘Corruption’ is not an ahis-torical, value-neutral descriptor. Even inthe short span of India’s post-independ-ence history, it has been deployed in dif-ferent ways in the service of differentpolitical agendas. Matthew Jenkins, a his-torian of corruption, has written abouthow, for instance, in JP Narayan’s move-ment for ‘total revolution’ in the 1970s,corruption denoted something very dif-ferent from what it did in the AnnaHazare-led anti-corruption agitation of2011.

For Narayan, corruption was a moralevil. As Jenkins puts it, Narayan “viewedthe capitalist system itself as corrupt”. Hecites Narayan’s famous quote that“wealth cannot be amassed except byexploitation.” But the anti-corruption dis-course that grew around the Hazaremovement did not share Narayan’s reser-vations about the corrupting influences ofthe profit motive. Corruption as a moral-ly charged idea had disappeared altogeth-er. What replaced it was a narrow, techni-cal idea of corruption as bribery, whichwent well with the economistic notion ofman as a rational agent who responds toincentives.

Overnight, the entire political class, thebureaucracy, and social infrastructure(such as the public distribution system,for instance), began to be deemed ashotbeds of corruption and held solelyresponsible for the state’s failures todeliver the benefits of economic growth.Conversely, any government engaged inthe delivery of socially critical economicgoods was held to be offering incentivesfor corruption.

In other words, it is not neo-liberal eco-nomic polices but corruption that is toblame for the benefits of economicgrowth not trickling down — or not trick-ling down enough — to the masses.

Now that corruption had been identi-fied as the biggest hurdle to economicdevelopment, the stage was set for itsantidote: good governance. This trajecto-ry – of aspirations first raised and thenbetrayed by economic reforms, leading tomass discontent, which zeroes in on cor-ruption as the problem, with good gover-nance presented as the solution – is veryevident in recent Indian history. But it isby no means unique to India. As Jenkinspoints out, the “international anti-corrup-tion consensus” has been a powerfulvehicle for manoeuvring recalcitrantnations onto the neo-liberal track.

With the UPA II regime showing nosigns of progress on the second wave ofeconomic reforms, the demon of corrup-tion was summoned to boot it out. And inits place, we now have the NDA, which isgood governance incarnate, and investedwith the mandate to roll out the nextphase of reforms that its predecessorcould not.

Elements of good governanceSo, what’s definitely out is welfare

expenditure, for not only is it a bad ideaeconomically, it also represents what

everyone hates – corruption. Also out ispolitical interference in policy-making –which can lead to distortions to pleasevote banks. Major policy measures shallbe decided by unelected experts, whodon’t have to worry about winning thenext election.

What’s in are accountability, trans-parency, empowerment, and citizen par-ticipation – all of which are key elementsof Mr. Modi’s ‘good governance’ agenda.On the face of it, these don’t seem likebad ideas. But like development, they allhave a dual meaning – one in the contextof social transformation, another in theneo-liberal vision of good governance.

So if we take, for instance, accountabil-ity, good governance doesn’t meanaccountability to the people – it is aboutaccountability to business and toinvestors, who are risking their moneywith expectations in return.

Similarly, transparency doesn’t neces-sarily mean that the state should renderits decision-making transparent to its cit-izens — if that were the case, a regimegoing gaga over good governance would-n’t have kept the post of ChiefInformation Commissioner vacant fornine months. Again, the transparency inquestion is with regard to business, espe-cially foreign investors, who are tired oftrying to find their way through the intri-cate webs of political patronage (alsoknown as corruption) and often lose outto domestic capital, which enjoys a cul-tural advantage (so-called crony capital-ism). As for empowerment, the good gov-ernance version of it, which imagines thestate giving power to the disempowered,say, through technology (e-governance,m-governance), is a cruel joke on theoriginal meaning of the term.

In human history, there has never beenan instance of a powerful political groupvoluntarily giving up its power. Which iswhy real empowerment is always an out-come of political confrontation and strug-gle – the civil rights movement, thewomen’s rights movement, and all otherrights-based movements are examples ofattempts to empower people through theinstitution of legally enforceable rights.The good governance model of empow-erment is allergic to any rights-basedempowerment. It conceives of empower-ment in individualistic-consumeristrather than collective terms. It offers littlescope, for instance, to remedy the socialdisempowerment caused by caste.

In India, every now and often,there emerges a passionate debateabout the virtues of the

Presidential system. Frustrated bycoalition governments, hungParliaments and ineffective PrimeMinisters, we look longingly towardwhat we think of as a dynamic andeffective alternative. In our imagina-tion, Presidents can choose theirequivalent of our cabinet of ministersfrom a pool of expert candidates notbeholden to the political party of thePresident, or even involved in poli-tics.

As any observer of American poli-tics will attest, the reality is quite oth-erwise. Hamstrung by a Constitutionthat —in the words of one of myfeisty professors in graduate school— “separated the hell out of the pow-ers”, Presidents of the United Stateshave had to constantly battle theother two branches of government —the judiciary and the legislative — toget anything done, not to mentionworking a system way more genuine-ly federal than India’s still centralisedpolity. Recent decades have seen aconstant politics of gridlock as thetwo main parties have found itimpossible to collaborate, and theRepublican party, in particular, hasmoved ideologically so far to theright that bipartisanism is very muchthe exception than the rule.

Far from the tyrannical majority thefounding fathers feared in construct-ing their elaborate system of checksand balances, it often seems that U.S.politics — and Presidents — are con-tinually stymied by intransigent, butpowerful, minority interests. This hasbeen particularly true during the sec-ond term of recent Presidents, withneither Mr. Bill Clinton nor Mr.George W. Bush being able to accom-plish much of anything as theirPresidencies ground towards the endsteeped in scandal in one instanceand the quagmire of war in the other.

Highlights of a legacy

With over a year remaining in hissecond term, it seemed very likelythat President Barack Obama washeaded for a very similar fate. Yet, afortuitous set of events in recentweeks raises the possibility that hemay yet evade that ignominy. First,by a 6-3 vote the Supreme Courtstruck down an important challengeto the Affordable Care Act (ACA) —more commonly referred to asObamacare by its critics — thus leav-ing in place a crucial part of thePresident’s legacy. Second, with thesupport of Republicans (and despitethe desertion of a handful ofDemocrats), the President’s efforts tocreate the equivalent of the NorthAmerican Free Trade Agreement inthe form of the Trans-PacificPartnership (TPP) with Pacific Rimcountries, and eventually with theEuropean Union, survived passagethrough Congress. Third, the UnitedStates Supreme Court legalised samesex marriage all across the nation.And finally, amidst the tragedy of thechurch massacre in Charleston, SC— where the first shots of the CivilWar were fired over a 150 years ago— Mr. Obama’s eulogy for the slainpastor Clementa Pinckney showedhis oratory, intelligence and compas-sion to stunning effect.

Battle for health care

Passed in March 2010, the ACAcame after decades of failed efforts toestablish a health-care system thatcovered most of the population. In itsbrief tenure, the ACA has providedcoverage to 16 million formerly unin-sured citizens with the latter droppingfrom 52 million a few years ago tojust over 35 million today. Thesenumbers would have been even moreimpressive had it not been for anoth-er judgment by the Supreme Courtback in 2012. That judgment, on theone hand, upheld theConstitutionality of the ACA but, onthe other, enabled individual states toblock its effective implementation.

As many as 22 states currently arecutting their noses to spite their faces:

they are willing to forego billions ofdollars in federal funds — funnelledthrough an expansion of Medicaid —to thwart the ACA. Many of themwere part of the slave-owning

Confederacy and they would, eventoday, forego federal monies ratherthan see health care reach the largelyAfrican-American underclass in theirown states; 36 states, 29 of them con-trolled by Republicans, have refusedto establish exchanges where theircitizens can buy health insurancethrough the ACA — forcing that bur-den back on the Federal government.

If these problems of implementa-tion have to do with the persistenceof racism and mainly Republicanintransigence, the larger problemswith the ACA owe to the way capital-ism operates in the U.S. UnlikeWestern Europe or Canada, with theirpublic health-care systems and uni-versal coverage irrespective ofmeans, the U.S. insists that every-thing be mediated through the privatesector. The ACA essentially requiresindividuals to purchase their healthinsurance from private providers —but through subsidies provided by thegovernment. Needless to say, theACA has received the support of theprivate health insurance industry,whose stocks showed a sharp uptickin the wake of the Supreme Court’sdecision upholding these subsidiesrecently.

These same insurance companies,interested as they are in their bottomlines, have high deductibles, denycoverage on many pretexts, and arelikely to increase their premiums

whenever feasible. The ACA is betterthan having no health insurance atall, but for all too many poor people,that is not saying very much. Thisinsistence on providing necessaryand vital public or collective goodsthrough the private sector — one canthink of school vouchers in this con-text — often ensures outcomes aresuboptimal for the consumer even ifthey are very profitable to corporateAmerica.

Yet, one can argue, as many have,that it’s precisely this governmentsubsidisation of the health insuranceproviders that enabled the ACA to bepassed in the first place, and allowedMr. Obama to succeed where a longline of Presidents from Trumanthrough Mr. Clinton had failed. Itpossibly also accounts for why it hasbeen upheld by the Supreme Court,why it evinces the support of corpo-rate America, and why it is likely tosurvive into the future. The incredi-bly strong private-sector orientedcapitalism of the U.S. exercises astrong restraint on what Presidentscan do in domains such as healthcare.

Free trade pact

In a similar vein, the passage of theTPP is a success only for those whobelieve in the alleged benefits of freetrade and expanded markets. ForAmerican workers and corporationsworried about the export of jobs andloss of markets to areas with cheaperlabour and laxer regulations, the ben-efits are dubious at best. More impor-tantly, the legislation to pass the TPP(or specifically its eventual expan-sion to the European Union) intro-duced a provision that restricted it tocompanies that do not support BDS— the movement to Boycott, Divestand Sanction companies and institu-tions that have any truck with Israel.Some liberal groups are outraged thata trade deal with the EU includes aprovision that will benefit Israel andpenalise Palestine.

On rights

On the right to same-sex marriage,Mr. Obama was definitely a latecom-er, joining that bandwagon in 2012and even that only after Vice-President Joe Biden forged ahead onthe issue. Though the White Housewas bathed in the rainbow colourssignifying gay pride after theSupreme Court’s judgment, the reali-ty is that nearly 2 out of 3 Americanssupport the rights of gays to same-sexmarriage as do a majority of thestates. For many of the militant seg-ments of the queer movement, the“victory” represented the triumph ofeffective lobbying by affluent profes-sionals among gays to gain access tothe same benefits and provisions astheir straight counterparts in (largely)corporate America. In their view,securing the right to marriage fromthe government inescapably under-writes conformist and conservativeinstitutions such as government andmarriage, and it belies the radical andrevolutionary reimagining of societythat a genuinely queer perspectiveought to entail. Yet, Mr. Obama willundoubtedly get some credit as theSupreme Court legalised the matterduring his watch.

Which brings us to Mr. Obama’s

speech in Charleston at Rev.Pinckney’s funeral. With its superbanalysis and measured condemnationof America’s legacy and presentracism; its careful delineation of thedisproportionate incarceration ofAfrican-Americans, the punitive sen-tences and murderous police violencevisited on them, and the more subtlediscriminations in hiring and eco-nomic opportunities in general; itsexasperation with America’s loveaffair with guns, and in its celebrationof the Christian spirit of grace andforgiveness, the speech oscillatedbetween an excoriating analysis ofracism and a careful avoidance ofextremism. You can see an extraordi-narily intelligent and passionate manrein in every semblance of anger,knowing that change in his countrywas going to be slow, painfully andexcruciatingly slow. Any display ofanger by a black President wouldonly prove to be counterproductiveand energise the already inflamedlunatic fringe — which is of courseworryingly more than just a fringe.

As one weighs Mr. Obama’saccomplishments in recent weeks andmonths, one has to assess themagainst what is possible in a societywhere many states and their gover-nors would rather deny their pooraccess to health care if it means a lotof African-Americans might benefit;where every government initiativemust redound to the benefit of thecorporate sector if it has to stand anychance of being passed by Congressor withstand scrutiny in the courts;and where bipartisanship is souncommon. Given the constraints allU.S. Presidents operate under, andgiven the additional burden Mr.Obama carries because of his race,his recent winning streak is bothunusual and likely temporary. Itwould be churlish to grudge him hismoment of success — so long as onealso remembers that his every suc-cess is weighed down by the limita-tions of the society he leads.

Fight For Right

The record settlement of $18.7 billion that the oilcompany BP has arrived at in the DeepwaterHorizon environmental disaster case in the United

States has naturally revived the debate on the denial ofjustice to the victims of a far bigger catastrophe — theBhopal gas leak. As industrial accidents go, the blowoutin BP’s well in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 was stagger-ing, killing 11 people and spectacularly devastating analready stressed marine ecosystem with millions of bar-rels of oil. Five State governments and the federal govern-ment of the U.S. have been vigorously pursuing penaltiesand compensation claims with the company, resulting inthe settlement. Yet, the impact of the oil spill pales incomparison with the magnitude of what happened at theUnion Carbide plant in Bhopal in 1984. The NarendraModi government blandly told Parliament recently thatthe Office of the Welfare Commissioner had recorded22,151 casualties in the gas leak under the death catego-ry, but after scrutiny of documents, medical records, affi-davits and so on, only 5,474 deaths were acknowledged,while 6,809 claims were rejected and the rest were treat-ed as cases of disability or injury. Independent accounts,however, have maintained that there are medical profes-sionals on record who certified 10,000 deaths soon afterthe gas leak. What contrasts the BP settlement with theBhopal case is the role of the state and its readiness topursue justice for citizens and remediation for the envi-ronment, with demonstrably errant commercial entities.The egregious neglect in securing compensation for thevictims of Bhopal, who continue to suffer, is evident fromthe fact that the original settlement of $470 million fortens of thousands of people absolved the Union CarbideCorporation of all future liabilities. The Centre, whichadopted a paternalistic position on the issue and assumedresponsibility for all victims, now says Rs.1,548 crore(about $258 million) has been awarded as original com-pensation in about half a million cases, a similar sum aspro rata compensation, and ex-gratia payments of about$100 million for medical treatment. On the ground, somevictims say they have received as little as Rs.35,000.Medical facilities are grossly inadequate, and the Centrehas brazenly neglected a festering problem: the site of theleak with some 350 tonnes of chemical around has notbeen cleaned up. Under the U.S. settlement, individualclaims can still be pursued. Regardless of whether it rep-resents the best model to address industrial accidents —often caused by short-sighted cost-cutting steps to boostprofits — the Deepwater Horizon outcome has somepointers to advance the cause of Bhopal’s long-sufferingvictims. Dow Chemical, which assumed Union CarbideCorporation assets, reported rising earnings last year andcannot evade its liabilities. The Centre and the SupremeCourt should ensure that justice is done for the haplessfamilies of Bhopal.

Passed in March 2010, the ACA cameafter decades of failed efforts to

establish a health-care system thatcovered most of the population. In its

brief tenure, the ACA has providedcoverage to 16 million formerly unin-sured citizens with the latter dropping

from 52 million a few years ago tojust over 35 million today.

Will do Everything...innovation easier. We have covered sub-

stantial ground in the last 14 months andwant to do a lot more in the future."

He said his government wants India toemerge as the innovation hub where thenext big ideas emerge, driven by the powerof technology.

Exhorting people to keep innovating as"innovation is what will help us growfaster", the Prime Minister particularlyencouraged the start-ups, saying they are"the engines of exponential growth, mani-festing the power of innovation".

He said that several big companies of onsunday are start-ups of yesterday. "Theywere born with a spirit of enterprise andadventure kept alive due to hard work andperseverance and today have become shin-ing beacons of innovation," he noted.

To a question on challenges to the roadmap of Digital India, PM Modi said,"When we have taken up such an ambitiousinitiative and that too at such a large scale,there will be several challenges. But, weshould neither underestimate these chal-lenges nor should we get overwhelmed bythem. We must be laser-focused on ourMission and that is what we are doing."

Talking about the challenges, he men-tioned access and affordable access as alsoskills and knowledge.

"We have to empower our citizens withthe skills and knowledge to use digitalapplications and services. We also have tovolunteer time and effort to share digitalskills so that our fellow citizens who haverecently been digitally empowered get toknow how to use this powerful mediumand are able to get the maximum out of thismedium," he added.

Another challenge, he said, is reformingthe citizen-government interface and theprocesses of governance.

"A Digital-First model of governancewill not only bring in efficiency and trans-parency but also will also dramaticallyreduce corruption," he said.

One more challenge is innovation andkeeping pace with the latest in technology,PM Modi said. "Everyday, there are newinnovations that is making some pieces oftechnology obsolete.

It is in this fast-changing technologyenvironment that we must realise theDigital India goals," he added.

'Modi's social...International Studies said.His account on Weibo, akin to Twitter has

tens of thousands of followers, the articlecarried by the web edition of the state- runGlobal Times said.

Noting that Modi's social media cam-paign is not exclusive to China as he "didthe similar things" for the US, Russia andJapan, it said the move is aimed at deliver-ing a message to the world that India ismore open and is keeping up to date withthe latest trends.

"In addition, the populations of the twocountries do not see each other as friends.Some Indians consider China to be theirbiggest threat, while some Chinese alsoview India negatively.

"In this case, Modi's Weibo account andhis interactions with Chinese people canhave a positive effect on bilateral rela-tions," it said, adding that Modi is trying toprovide a "new perspective on India to theinternational community through his publicdiplomacy".

At the same time, "such public diploma-cy will also play a constructive role in bilat-eral ties", it said.

"There are currently no huge irritantsaffecting bilateral ties, but there has beenno major progress either in recent years,because more is said than done," it said.

"Besides, while certain difficult issuesremain unsettled, it is still an open questionas to when the two countries will complete-ly settle on the track of healthy coopera-tion, especially with the backdrop of borderdisputes," it said.

While Modi and Chinese President XiJinping were expected to meet on the side-lines of 7th BRICS Summit in Russia laterthis week, Sino-Indian relations will be onthe threshold of a new breakthrough "ifsubstantial progress is to be achieved, andthe deadlock is to be broken", it said, refer-ring to attempts by both the countries tospeed up border talks.

Vyapam scam...get the matter probed by the agency they

want to. We don't have any problem."The Vyapam scam had started out as just

another case of systemic corruption that ispart of everyday life in the country but nowis being dubbed as one of the biggest scamsin the country.

With three deaths in the last three days,the Vyapam scam has turned into a monsterwhich Madhya Pradesh Chief MinisterShivraj Singh Chouhan can ignore at hisown peril.

The latest in the series of deaths of peo-ple linked in one way or the other to theexamination was that of a trainee woman

cop on Monday. Anamika Khuswahareportedly committed suicide by jumpinginto a river in Sagar, Madhya Pradesh.

“Anamika Kushwaha jumped into theriver and died. It's said she was mentallystressed for the last few days,” said SavitaSohane of the Sagar Police Academy.Kushwaha had cleared the entrance examheld by Vyapam last year and joined theacademy in February this year.

Responding to media queries onKhuswaha's death, the CM said that theunfortunate incident was not related toVyapam scam investigation. “Every deathshould not be linked (to the scam),” he said.

On Sunday, Dr Arun Sharma, the dean ofa Jabalpur Medical College, was founddead in a Delhi hotel.

Dr Sharma's death came exactly a yearafter his predecessor at Netaji SubhasChandra Medical College, Dr DK Sakalle'sbody was found in a charred condition athis residence in Bhopal.

Media reports said that both Dr Sharmaand Dr Sakalle were incharge of the docu-ment verification committee that wasinvolved in checking the credentials of stu-dents suspected of having used unfairmethods to clear Pre-Medical Test (PMT)and Pre-PG exams.

Commenting on the probe into DrSharma's death, Delhi PoliceCommissioner BS Bassi said, “We arecarefully investigating the matter, no foulplay was observed as per prima facie evi-dence.”

“Notwithstanding the fact no foul playwas observed as per prima facie evidence,amedical board was constituted to conductpost mortem. We are also in touch with lateDr. Arun Sharma's family so we get toknow about local factors that can give indi-cation of foul play.”

Dr Sharma's death came less than 24hours after television journalist AkshaySingh died minutes after he interviewed thefamily members of a student NamrataDomor in Jhabua. Domor's mutilated bodywas found on a railway track in Indore in2012.

While there are no conclusive evidencesof any foul play in their deaths, the series ofunexplained deaths has reaffirmed the sus-picion that attempts are being made toeliminate people linked to the scam.

The SIT has questioned thousands ofpeople and arrested many but questionscontinue to remain on the effectiveness ofthe probe.

Those demanding CBI probe have raisedserious questions on non-partiality of theSIT as it comprises of officers from thestate police.

Stepping up its attack, Congress todaydemanded that the Supreme Court shouldtake suo moto cognisance of the case andorder a probe under its direct supervision.

Congress spokesperson PC Chacko saidChouhan cannot escape responsibility forthe "45 deaths" connected to Vyapam scamand that Prime Minister Narendra Modishould take "moral responsibility".

"The Chief Minister cannot be spared. Heshould take responsibility," Chacko said.

Meanwhile, Vyapam scam whistleblowerAshish Chaturvedi has approached thepolice seeking enhanced security cover ashe fears that he will be eliminated if he tes-tifies in court in the case.

Many people related to the scam havedied over the years but it seldom raised sus-picion then as they were not in quick suc-cession as they have been in the past fewmonths. What is adding to the fear of a mis-chief is that the increase in deaths comesjust ahead of July 15 when the SIT is tosubmit second chargesheet – which report-edly looks into the wider conspiracy behindthe scam.

With many high and mighty are said to beamong the beneficiaries of the scam,Chouhan's resoluteness in getting to thebottom of the scam will be put to test likenever before.

The nation is watching.

Congress playing...scam.Anamika Kushwaha, a trainee police

sub-inspector at the police training centreat Sagar, jumped to her death in a nearbypond early Monday.

Just a day ago, Arun Sharma, the deanof a medical college in Jabalpur inMadhya Pradesh who was connectedwith the scam probe, was found dead in ahotel room near the Indira GandhiInternational Airport in Delhi.

On Saturday, journalist Akshay Singh,died dramatically in Madhya Pradeshwhile covering the Vyapam scam.

There are conflicting numbers aboutdeaths related to the Vyapam scam.While the Congress puts the number at48, the Special Investigation Team`s fig-ure is 33. The scam is related to irregular-ities in recruitment conducted byVyavsayik Pareeksha Mandal (Vyapam)and apparently involves politicians, offi-cials and businessmen.

'Enlarged heart...drink the water and became uncon-

scious. We immediately took him to agovernment hospital. The doctor said hisheart is not beating and he had no facili-

ties there to revive him," Mr Damor said.The doctor, Kailash Patidar, had said

the journalist had suffered a heart attack.But Mr Singh's family said he had nohealth problems. Under pressure, theMadhya Pradesh government referred thecase to AIIMS, which is examining hisviscera samples.

Along with Akshay Singh and a med-ical college dean who died on Sunday,the number of deaths linked to theVyapam scam is 35.

Railways Rolls...its roof as part of Railways' plan to har-

ness the green source of energy.The Minister also announced Rs 5 lakh

reward for ICF staff for attaining themilestone of rolling out 50,000th coach.

A premier industry, ICF was set up in1955. Since then the factory has beenmanufacturing conventional coachesaproximately 1,500 a year, catering to theever-increasing demand for coaches fornew trains. ICF manufactures varioustypes of AC and non-AC coaches includ-ing EMUs (Electrical Multiple Units) andDEMU (Diesel Electrical MultipleUnits), Metro coaches for Kolkata Metro.

Now the ICF will also manufactureLHB coaches, till now made at RailCoach factory at Rae Bareli andKapurthala. LHB coaches are mainlyused in premier trains like Rajdhani,Shatabdi and Duronto services.

ICF is credited with introducing Braillesignages in coaches for visually-chal-lenged passengers.

Besides, Mr Prabhu also inauguratedthe upgrading facility at the ICF for pro-duction of Linke Hofmann Busch (LHB)coaches through video conferencingfacility from New Delhi.

On fuel efficiency, Mr Prabhu said,"Railways is undertaking trial run for theuse of dual-fuel (CNG and diesel) tech-nology and our next step is on to run atrain on solar power."

Unwed Mother...that the man stayed with her barely for

two months and did not even know theexistence of the child.

After a Delhi trial court and the highcourt ruled against the petitioner, sheapproached the Supreme Court.

A bench led by Justice Vikramajit Sensaid that the lower courts had lost sight ofthe issue that was before them and decid-ed the matter without taking into accountthe welfare of the child.

Pakistan Targets...arms firing on BoPs along IB in Arnia

sector of Jammu district from 18:52hours to 18:55 hours by firing 25 to 30rounds.

The firing by Pakistaani Rangersresumed at 19:15 hours and the exchangebetween Pakistani Rangers and BSFtroops continued for over 80 minutes andstopped at 20:35, he said, adding thatthere was no loss of life or injury to any-one in the firing.

Firing again erupted and was continu-ing intermittently till last reports came infrom the area, the officer said.

Earlier, Pakistani Rangers violated theceasefire and fired at two BoPs along IBin R S Pura sector of Jammu district onJune 22.

In Kashmir valley, there was heavy fir-ing by the Pakistani troops on forwardposts along LoC in Nowgam belt ofMacchail sector in Kupawara last night.

New Motor...States' fears that the new Bill will

encroach upon their administrative andfinancial powers, the minister said therewas no such thing and he was trying hisbest to take States on board.

The new Road Transport and SafetyBill seeks to come down heavily on traf-fic offenders and proposes steep penaltiesof up to Rs. 3 lakh along with a minimum7-year imprisonment for death of a childin certain circumstances, besides hugefines for driving violations.

Mr Gadkari said once the law is enact-ed, it would overhaul the sector bringingin transparency besides curbing malprac-tices. Besides a heavy penalty for drivingrelated violations, the Bill also proposes afine of Rs. 5 lakh per vehicle and animprisonment for faulty manufacturingdesign. The Bill is also aimed at bringingdown fatalities in road accidents by twolakh in the first five years.

He said his Ministry is committed tocontributing at least 2 per cent to theGDP from the sector besides aiming toreduce accidents by more than 50 percent in the next two years.

"Three lakh persons are crippled annu-ally in 5 lakh road accidents, while anoth-er 1.5 lakh lose their lives. We are seriousabout reducing accidents. We will set up5,000 centres across the country for issu-ing driving licenses based on comput-erised tests as 30 per cent of the licencesin the country are bogus," the Ministersaid.

He said providing safe, efficient, cost

effective and faster transport across thecountry is government's mission.

Earlier, allaying States' fear that newBill will take away their rights, MrGadkari has said, "I assure to the statesthat they will not be disturbed. We willnot take a single paisa from your revenueand in fact, we want to give support to thestates. There are some misconceptionsabout the proposed Act."

Minister Unapologetic...Reporters, he said: "I said nothing

wrong. Those who took out a wronginterpretation of what I said should apol-ogise." Pressed on answers, he snapped atthe reporter: "I am a mature politician, Idon't know if you are a mature journal-ist."

Earlier this morning, Mr Vijayvargiyaclaimed that he had made his controver-sial remarks "casually, off the record,"though he was speaking directly to TVcameras. "No one appreciates more thanme what journalists go through whilecovering a story. On Saturday night, dur-ing a casual conversation with an ABPreporter, he said something and I dis-missed it - now the off the record conver-sation is being sensationalized. I don'twant to defend myself but I ask journal-ists - do you think Kailash Vijayvargiyawill say something so insensitive?" theminister said today, adding that he was"waiting" for a reply to his question.

Senior Congress leader DigvijayaSingh, who has been demanding a largerinvestigation into the Vyapam scam andthe unusual number of deaths since it sur-faced in 2012, tweeted: "KailashVijayvargiya's comment on journalists iscondemnable. It exposes his ego. Heshould apologise to journalists."

The journalist, Akshay Singh, is among35 people to die mysteriously in connec-tion with the scam that involves politi-cians and bureaucrats allegedly acceptingkickbacks in exchange for allowingimposters to take the recruitment examfor government jobs and admission tocolleges.

Akshay Singh died suddenly when hewas in Jhabua, speaking to the family ofa girl named in the scam. Witnessaccounts suggest the 38-year-old journal-ist started frothing at the mouth and col-lapsed while talking to the girl's father. Adoctor had said that he died of a heartattack, but Delhi's AIIMS hospital is nowhandling a medical investigation intohow he died.

Shiv Sena Wants...population to counter Muslims is not

the solution and that the "Sangh" shouldpressurise the government to strictlyimpose family planning on all religions.

"From 2001-11, Muslim populationincreased by around 24 per cent and musthave increased by another 5-10 per centtill 2015. The increasing population willcause language, geographical and senti-mental imbalance and will create cracksin the unity of the country," the Sena saidin an edit in mouthpiece 'Saamana.'

"The Prime Minister should clearly tellMuslims to obey the law of the land andaccept the necessity of family planning.The PM promised to address their issueseven if they knock his doors midnight.But, will Muslims similarly run to helpthe country?" it questioned.

"More than Lokpal, the countryneeds a Common Civil Code in place," itsaid.

"Whoever wants to try Ghar Wapsi cando so. We do not oppose it. But this is notthe solution to stop Islamic onslaught onthe country. Pakistan has an Islamic gov-ernment. Even countries like Iraq have anIslamic government. But in those coun-tries, human lives there do not have muchdignity.

On the contrary, countries likeTurkmenistan, that have adopted moderntechnology are in the race with Europeand America. Modi government shouldknock the doors of Muslims and apprisethem with this fact," the Sena said.

Uma Bharti...mysterious deaths associated with the

Vyapam scam."I stand with Shivraj ji. I am concerned

about him as he is a very sensitive per-son. He must be very upset about thesedeaths," she said.Detailed story to follow.

Over 2,100 Pilgrims...Yatri Niwas here today (Monday)

morning for the Valley. It includes 399females, 20 children and 135 sadhus," asenior police officer told IANS.

"The yatris left in 12 vehicles in anescorted convoy," the officer said.

The cave shrine houses an ice stalag-mite structure that waxes and wanes withthe phases of the moon. Devotees call thestalagmite structure the 'Holy Lingam'and believe it symbolises mystical pow-ers of Lord Shiva.

The over 300-km long Jammu-Srinagarnational highway is the only surfaceroute for the annual Hindu pilgrimage to

the Himalayan cave shrine situated14,500 feet above the sea level in southKashmir's Anantnag district.

Heavy rain has been lashing the high-way throughout the Sunday night, trig-gering landslides at some places.

An official of the traffic departmenttold IANS there has been landslide in theBannihal sector of the highway becauseof heavy rainfall, but the highway hasbeen restored for one-way traffic to facil-itate the passage of the yatris.

The two-month long Amarnath Yatrastarted this year on July 2 and will end onAugust 29, coinciding with ShravanPurnima and Raksha Bandhan festivals.

NASA Briefly...an hour and half, and perplexed scien-

tists as they tried to figure out what hadgone wrong aboard the New Horizonsspacecraft nearly three billion miles (4.9billion kilometers) from Earth.

The mission is being closely watchedby millions of space enthusiasts becausethe spacecraft's flyby of Pluto on July 14will offer the world's first close look atthe distant dwarf planet.

"The New Horizons spacecraft experi-enced an anomaly the afternoon of July 4that led to a loss of communication withEarth," NASA said on its website.

"Communication has since beenreestablished and the spacecraft ishealthy."

The spacecraft was pre-programmed toswitch from its main to a backup comput-er in the event of such a problem.

PM Modi gifts...Khusrau to Uzbek President Islam

Karimov. Written in Persian by the great13th century Sufi poet Amir Khusrau andprofusely decorated and illuminated withvarious colours, including gold and ultra-marine, the work is a part of the manu-scripts collection of National Museum inDelhi. Earlier in the day, Prime MinisterModi met his Uzbek counterpart ShavkatMiromonovich Mirziyoyev, whom hethanked for the warm welcome accordedto him upon his arrival.

Govt calls...vulnerablility to radicalisation.The meeting, to be attended by

Principal Secretaries (Home) of thestates, will also take note of "alarming"development of Rohingya Muslims mar-rying Indian girls, especially in Jammuand Kashmir, a government official toldPTI here today.

According to an initial estimate, thereare around 1.3 lakh Rohingyas, mostlysettled in Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal,Andhra Pradesh (mainly Hyderabad),Kerala, Assam, Jammu and Kashmir andDelhi.

"Rohingya Muslims are 'persecuted' intheir homeland in Myanmar. Hence, thereis a fear that the members of the commu-nity could be vulnerable to radicalisation.We have to be cautious before things goout of hand," the official said.

The meeting with top Home depart-ment officials of seven states comes near-ly a month after Deputy NationalSecurity Advisor Arvind Gupta held dis-cussions on the issue with senior officialsof the Home Department and central lawenforcement agencies.

Rohingya Muslims have been infiltrat-ing into India through the porous Indo-Bangladesh border and most of themhave secured identity cards given torefugees and asylum seekers by UNRefugee agency UNHCR, making it dif-ficult for authorities to deport themimmediately even if caught.

The Home Ministry had been informedby security agencies last year about inter-ception of a group of Rohingyas at theIndo-Bangladesh border in Tripuraamong whom there was a Kashmiri man.

"That Kashmiri man told officials thatRohingya Muslims are increasingly set-tling in Jammu and Kashmir and evenmarrying Kashmiri girls, which is analarming development," the official said.

Woman Cop...inspector, Anamika Sikarwar (25), was

found in the lake adjacent to the PoliceTraining acdemy in Sagar district head-quarters, City Superintendent of Police(CSP) Gautam Solanki said.

Anamika was married and a resident ofMorena district.

She got selected as sub-inspector in anexam conducted by Vyapam.

However, the CSP said that her selec-tion has nothing to do with Vyapam scamand she was not a suspected beneficiary.

She was found missing from her roomand later her body was found in the lake.It is suspected to be a case of suicide, hesaid. Police rushed her immediately tothe district hospital where doctorsdeclared her brought dead.

The cops have sealed her room in theacademy and so far no suicide note hasbeen found. The exact cause will beknown after a probe, Solanki said addinginitial investigations are on in the case.

Notably, Asus last monthlaunched ZenFone 2 mod-els featuring QualcommSnapdragon chipsetsinstead of the Intelchipsets. The launch wasfirst reported bymobile.163.com.

The Pegasus 2 Plussports a 13-megapixel rearcamera while there is an 8-megapixel front-facing

camera. The Android 5.1.1Lollipop-based Pegasus 2Plus runs Zen UI skin ontop and features dual-SIMsupport. The smartphonewill be available in RoseGold and White colouroptions. The handset isbacked by a 3030mAh bat-tery.

There are no detailsabout connectivity optionson the Pegasus 2 Plussmartphone. Though con-sidering that the originalPegasus came with 4GLTE support, we canexpect its successor willalso support 4G.

A report earlier thismonth claimed that Asusmight launch anothermodel in its ZenFoneseries later this month.Said to be called theZenFone Go ZC500TG,the smartphone was said topack a quad-coreMediaTek processor with2GB of RAM.

QUIZ TIME

Answer: 1(A), 2(A), 3(B)

TODAY’S STARARIES You may be in a difficult position, Aries, as a critical part of a pend-

ing decision. Your first reaction may be to throw up your hands andleave the decision to someone else. Making a choice is too tough,so you find that you'd rather not have to make it at all. Unfortunately,it looks like everyone else has the same idea. Deep down, you havean opinion that needs to be heard.

TAURUS Your self-esteem should be strong these days, Taurus, helping youbuild more confidence in yourself every day. There may be a glitchin the action today, however, as someone with an extreme perspec-tive on things suddenly steps into the picture. Your emotions maysuddenly swing from one end of the spectrum to the other. Do yourbest to stay calm.

GEMINI A ray of sunshine is likely to shine on you, Gemini. Things may have beencloudy lately, making it harder for you to maintain a positive disposition.Today's news will be uplifting, and you will likely be reminded of all the goodtimes in store for you. Others may feel a bit of stress, but you should be ableto see through this and appreciate the benefits of the situation.

CANCER Recent hesitation on your part may have suddenly put you in a bind, Cancer. Itmay feel like you've reached gridlock and your choices are limited. You can nolonger get a solid handle on things. Instead of trying to make a move now, youmay have to wait until the dust settles and you can see clearly again. Let the sit-uation release before you add any more friction.

LEO There are powerful forces operating now, Leo. Whether you realize it or not, youhave tremendous control over the direction of these energies. Take control of thesituation instead of letting someone else do it for you. You will find that other peo-ple are more malleable than usual, making them quite willing to move forward inwhatever direction you point them.

VIRGO If conflict arises in your world, Virgo, you must keep in mind thatthere is no one else to blame except you. Keeping your sights seton one goal is useful as you concentrate all your energy towardthat one thing. At the same time, you may be losing perspective onwhat's going on around you. Make sure you continue to be a teamplayer by keeping an eye out for the people in the wings.

LIBRA Life may seem like a great train ride, Libra. You have yourown little compartment that you're striving to keep comfort-able and neat. The company you keep is important, as isyour proximity to the food car. Be careful that you don't getso wrapped up in your own little world that you neglect topay heed to where the train is headed.

SCORPIO You need to learn an important lesson in follow-through, Scorpio.As you strive for perfection, you may get the feeling that nothing isever fully completed. Try not to be so hard on yourself. The workyou've finished so far is more than likely much better than whatmost people could ever accomplish. Put the final touches on what-ever you're doing and move on.

SAGITTARIUS Most of the time you deal with the facts, Sagittarius. Facts are thingsyou can grasp, categorize, and make rational sense of. Unfortunately,today some of your facts may be challenged by one of the things youfear most - intense emotions. The ensuing friction is like dealing withapples and oranges. You may find it hard to find any common groundfrom which to negotiate.

CAPRICORN You may be hit with some extreme circumstances that causeyou to feel uneasy about continuing along your path, Capricorn.Use this jolt as a reminder that nothing is set in stone. An ele-ment of the unexpected can always creep up on you. Deepdown, you probably had a feeling that this difficult situation wasbound to happen eventually.

AQUARIUS You may feel like you're on a road to adventure and excited aboutthe frontiers you're encountering, Aquarius. Unfortunately, itseems that not everyone is as excited about this path as you are.Blows to your ego are apt to hit hard, but try not to let this deteryou. This is more than likely a result of other people's jealousy ofyour incredible strength and bravery.

PISCES There's a tremendously sensitive side to your personality that's tenderand extremely vulnerable, Pisces. Be careful about putting too muchof yourself out there now. By opening yourself up so much, you're invit-ing in trouble. Others might not be that aware of how sensitive you are.Those with strong, boisterous spirits are likely to be abrasive, so pro-tect your emotions.

There is no decisive data or evi-dence so far to show that radi-ations from mobile phones or

towers have adverse health or envi-ronmental effects in India, a topBSNL official in Agartala said.

"There is no conclusive study, dataor evidences about the bad health orecological effects of radiations frommobile phones or towers in India,"Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited(BSNL) chief general manager(Northeast circle one) D.P. Singh toldreporters.

He said: "India's stringent measuresagainst radiations from mobilephones or Base Tower Stations (BTS)are ten times more than the USA andEuropean countries."

According to the officer, there areabout 775,000 BTSs in the countryand so far only about 90 cases havebeen found to be non-compliant bythe department of telecommunication(DoT) and penalty has been imposedon the operators.

"A penalty of Rs. 10,00,000 hasbeen imposed in each case ondefaulting operators in case any BTSis found to be non-compliant," saidSingh, who was earlier looking afterthe radiations related affairs in theDoT.

The BSNL official said that regularaudit of electromagnetic field levelsfrom the mobile towers throughTERM (Telecom Enforcement

Resource Monitoring) cells of theDoT is being done to ensure that pre-scribed standards are implemented.

Singh said that the World HealthOrganisation (WHO) has done a largenumber of studies over the past twodecades to assess whether mobilephones and BTS pose potential healthrisk.

"A section of so-called experts andenvironmentalists to achieve theirpersonal gain and business benefitare occasionally spreading exaggerat-ed facts about radiations from mobilephone or towers based on some mythand falsehood," the BSNL CGM said.

"These experts and environmental-ists without any conclusive study andfacts sometimes say that sparrowsand other birds are vanishing, affect-

ing breeding or reproduction, andfoods due to radiation from mobilephone or BTS," he added.

"Had this (radiations) been harm-ful, Europe and the US would havedone away with it long ago. Here,people make occasional hullabalooabout the harm being done by mobiletowers, but actually nothing like thathappens."

The CGM said that the DoT hasrecently sanctioned Rs. 5,336 croresfor the improvement of mobile andinternet services in the eightNortheastern states.

He said the BSNL would set upseveral hundred Wi-Fi hotspots inNortheastern states soon, besidesimproving machinery and quality ofservice in the region.

Ateam of internationalresearchers has puttogether some of the

world's best art, poetry, music,drama, and dance onto smalldisks and plans to send them tothe Moon aboard a rover nextyear.

The rover developed by theCarnegie Mellon University'sRobotics Institute will competeon the Moon for the GoogleLunar Xprize, a $30 million

(roughly Rs. 190 crores) contestto land a privately funded roboton the lunar surface.

Carnegie Mellon's robot plansto take gifts to the Moon in theform of the small disks contain-ing data on Earth's art, 'TechTimes' reported.

William L "Red" Whittaker,roboticist and founder ofAstrobotic, Inc, is reservingspace on the rover for the MoonArts Ark, which contains ele-

ments representing art, architec-ture, design, music, drama, balletand poetry.

The Ark is four elaboratechambers that each hold fourengraved sapphire disks, metalsculptures, microcapsules con-taining evidence of life on earth,high-resolution dye sublimationimagery on metal foil, and a vari-ety of information in the form ofdata, imagery and physicaltraces.

To be part of the payload, theArk must weigh no more than 6ounces volume or half a can ofsoda.

The Moon Arts team hasaccomplished this technical featand the chamber prototypes arecompleted. While the Ark mustendure a journey through space,work reliably under extreme con-ditions on the lunar surface, andremain operational for whatcould be millions or billions of

years, an exact replica of theMoon-bound one will be con-structed for future exhibition onEarth.

Mark Baskinger, co-principalinvestigator of the Moon ArtsGroup and an associate professorin the CMU School of Design,called the Ark and its contents acapsule of life on Earth, meant tohelp illustrate a vital part of thehuman existence: thearts.

VANCOUVERCarli Lloyd became the first

woman to score a hattrick in aWorld Cup final as she inspired theUnited States to a 5-2 demolitionof defending champions Japan onSunday.

The United States, winners in1991 and 1999, became the firstnation to win the crown three timesand avenged their loss to Japan onpenalties in the 2011 final.

Lloyd, 32, scored her first goalafter just three minutes on the pitchat Vancouver`s BC Place Stadiumwith the second coming two min-utes later, and her third after 16minutes.

"I was on a mission today," saidLloyd, whose teammates LaurenHoliday (14) and Tobin Heath (54)also found the net.

Yuki Ogimi got one back on 27minutes for the Asian championswith their second coming thanks toa 52nd-minute own-goal by USdefender Julie Johnson.

"It`s unreal, it just hasn`t sunk inyet," Lloyd said. "I`m mentallyfried.

"We knew that if we took it toJapan they would get nervous onthe pitch."

Coach Jill Ellis said her onlythought after the early goal-festwas: "Pinch me, wake me up!"

"We`d talked about starting fast,and I just knew that the playerscould deliver.

"These players were born for thebig moments," she added. "I envis-aged us winning the trophy. I thinkfive (goals) is a dream come true."

It was the third meeting betweenthe two teams in a major champi-onship with the Americans win-ning the Olympic gold ahead of

Japan in 2012, when Lloyd scoredboth goals in a 2-1 win.

The stunned `Nadeshiko` werein disarray just minutes into theirtitle defence.Wearing the captain`sarmband Lloyd, who was one ofthree US players to miss a penaltyin the 2011 final, got her first twogoals from set pieces as she deliv-ered a performance that saw herpresented with the Golden Ballaward as the tournament`s bestplayer.

The player from New Jerseypicked up Megan Rapinoe`s lowcross from the right to tap in.

Two minutes later the Japanesedefence was in meltdown whenLloyd again found her waythrough following a freekick.

To euphoric chanting of `USA,USA, USA` from the 53,341 fansin the packed stadium, Holiday gota third just before the quarter hourmark with a volley after a weak

defensive header from AzusaIwashimizu.

And just two minutes later Lloydcompleted her hattrick with a stun-ning shot from 50 yards over thehead of a stunned Ayumi Kaihoriin the Japan goal.

Japan coach Norio Sasaki saidhe had tried to warn his players ofthe danger posed by midfielderLloyd, who was playing up frontalongside Alex Morgan, but hisshouts were drowned out by thecrowd.

"I tried to tell them but theycouldn`t hear me," he said. "MissLloyd, she always does this to us.In London she scored two and hereshe scored three.

"We`re really embarrassed, butwe really respect and admire her,she deserves the goldenball."Japan`s players huddledtogether to try and regroup, as theystruggled to contain the livewire

midfielder, who netted six goals inthe tournament, equal withGermany`s Celia Sasic.

But the Houston Dash midfielderraced forward again, looking sur-prised as she missed a chance for afourth on 17 minutes as she firedjust wide.

Ogimi lifted Japanese spirits inthe 27th minute as she got one pastHope Solo -- whose work in theUS goal earned her the GoldenGlove award as top keeper of thetournament.

Sasaki brought on experiencedmidfielder Homare Sawa, theheroine of Japan`s 2011 campaign,after 33 minutes in place of tearfulIwashimizu who had to be com-forted on the bench.

Kozue Ando, who broke herankle in Japan`s opening game,and underwent surgery at homewas back in Vancouver on the side-lines.

MUMBAIIndia wicketkeeper-bats-

man Robin Uthappa saidon Monday the Zimbabwetour call-up was an oppor-tunity he was waiting forthe last three-four years,adding he would try toutilise the chance tocement his place in theside.

Middle-order batsmanAjinkya Rahane will lead a15-member team for threeOne-Day Internationals(ODIs) and two Twenty20matches as regular skipperVirat Kohli, among otherseniors, were rested for theseries. India face the hostsin the first ODI on July 10.

"I am very grateful thatfinally I will get a wholeseries to play after playingone or two games in a year.I am looking forward to the

tour. This is the opportuni-ty I was waiting for lastthree to four years. Thehard work I have put in hasgiven me positive resultsnow," Uthappa said here ata press conference.

"I want to make theopportunity I have got. Iwant to consolidate myplace in the squad, as Ibelieve I have a lot to offerfor the Indian team."

Speaking on the aspectof being a wicketkeeper-batsman he said, "It hasbeen quite an enjoyablejourney. Initially it was abit of a trouble, but as timewent I fell in love with it.Once I kept wickets in theIndian Premier League(IPL) and ChampionsLeague, I thought of takingit as a full time. It came ata perfect time when my

batting clicked.""I could invest the same

time which I did in batting,in the wicket-keeping aswell. Today I am enjoyingkeeping the wickets. Itgives us so much of infor-mation while you arestanding behind the wick-ets and see what's going onin the field."

With the new rules inODIs coming into play, the29-year-old said five field-ers outside the 30-yard cir-cle wouldn't matter to himas he would look for runsand try to hit boundaries.

"I don't think it makes adifference as a batsman asyou are looking at the gapsand not at the fielders. ButI think from the bowlersperspective it gives them abit of confidence,"Uthappa concluded.

LONDONMaria Sharapova endured her

toughest match of the tournament sofar at Wimbledon but still made itthrough to the quarter-finals with a 6-4, 6-4 win over Kazakhstan's ZarinaDiyas on Monday.

The Russian fourth seed, who wonthe 2004 title, has yet to drop a setbut came through what was by far herlongest match of the tournament inthe 97-minute contest on the 11,000-seater Court One.

She faces Coco Vandeweghe inTuesday's quarter-finals after the USworld number 47 knocked out Czechsixth seed Lucie Safarova, lastmonth's beaten French Open finalist,their fourth round encounter.

Sharapova had a nervy start againstworld number 34 Diyas and was 3-1down in the second set but the 28-year-old's experience told and shelooked delighted at the end.

"The further you go, the tougher itgets. My opponent is a really goodgrasscourt player, stayed really lowand hit so hard so I really had to be

ready for all her shots," Sharapovasaid.

"Coming into this tournament, Ididn't have a warm-up event and Iwanted to start off strong and give agood chance for myself.

"I thought I've been doing good butas we all know, it only gets tougherfrom here.

"It's a great position to be in. I lostat this stage last year so was extreme-

ly happy to go a round further andcontinue."

The Siberian won Wimbledon 11years ago but has only made it pastthe fourth round once since2006.

Sharapova is one of just three top12 players left in the tournamentalong with world number one SerenaWilliams and fifth seed CarolineWozniacki.

Maria Sharapova Endures Tough TestEn Route Wimbledon Last Eight

LONDONSerena Williams won the latest

instalment of her rivalry with sis-ter Venus as the world numberone eased into the Wimbledonquarter-finals with a 6-4, 6-3 vic-tory on Monday.

Serena, bidding for her sixthWimbledon title, took just 67minutes to see off Venus onCentre Court and will playVictoria Azarenka or BelindaBencic for a place in the semi-finals.

The 33-year-old hit 36 winnersand 10 aces to secure her 14th winin 26 meetings with her older sis-ter, but it was clear neither siblingenjoyed the experience.

"It`s hard to feel excited about(beating) someone you root for allthe time no matter what and youlove so much and is your bestfriend in the world," Serena said.

"It`s never easy to play some-one you love and care about.

"But I don`t know how manymore moments like this we`llhave. I plan on playing for yearsbut you never know if we`ll havethe opportunity to face each other.So I just took the moment in."

With the awkward family

reunion out of the way, Serenacan refocus on her bid to rewritethe history books.

The American, whose record forthe year now stands at a remark-able 36-1, remains on course tobecome the first woman to winthe French Open and Wimbledonback-to-back since she lastachieved that feat in 2002.

She is on a 25-match winningrun at the majors, a blisteringsequence that brought her the2014 US Open crown and theAustralian and French Open titlesthis year.

Serena will hold all four GrandSlam titles at the same time if shewins a sixth Wimbledon crown onSaturday.

That would also leave the 20-time Grand Slam champion need-ing only to win the US Open inAugust to become the firstwoman since Steffi Graf in 1988to land all four majors in the sameyear.Venus, 35, and Serena havecombined to win 27 Grand Slams,including five for each atWimbledon.

But, after regularly duelling forthe sport`s top prizes -- they haveplayed in eight major finals -- this

was only the third clash of theWilliams clan in the last six years,their earliest ever at Wimbledon,and their first Grand Slam show-down since the 2009 Wimbledonfinal won by Serena.

So close off the court, to theextent that they shared a home inFlorida until recently, the sisters

have never hidden how uncom-fortable they feel whenever theyare forced to stand on opposingsides of the net.

And following the pattern oftheir match-ups, which started 17years ago in Australia, the usuallyvolatile Serena was far lessdemonstrative than she had been

when fighting back to beatHeather Watson in the previousround.

Even without the shrieks andfist-pumps, she still made a scin-tillating start, breaking to love inthe opening game and taking thefirst eight points to established aquick 2-0 lead.

Wimbledon 2015: Serena Williams beats Venus Williams to reach quarter-finalsIndian Women's Hockey TeamReturns to a Grand Welcome NEW DELHI

Having all but booked a berth in next year's RioOlympics, Indian women's hockey team on Mondayarrived early morning to a grand welcome amidstbeating of drums and loud cheers.

A large contingent of officials and media gatheringwas present at the airport to receive the team, whichfinished fifth at the just-concluded Hockey WorldLeague Semifinals in Antwerp, Belgium. (Also read:Indian women all set to claim Rio Olympics place)

The result has enhanced Indian women's chances ofqualifying for the 2016 Games.

"We knew we had to be in the top five to stay incontention for the Rio Olympics. The last two gameswere very crucial for us and the girls kept their cooldespite huge expectations and pressure. The youngplayers specially played really well and I can confi-dently say that the future for women hockey in Indiais very bright," said India's coach C R Kumar.

Indian fans welcome the national women's hockeyteam. Indian women's lone Olympic appearance wasat Moscow in 1980. Effectively, India's fifth spot hereshould secure them an Olympic Games ticket whenthe countdown to allocate spots takes place.

Three spots each are on offer at both the WorldLeague Semifinal competitions, at Antwerp and in thejust-concluded event at Valencia.

With five continental event champions beingallowed another route, there are likely to be severaldual qualifications. In turn, that can open up Olympicspots for nations which do not make the top four ofthe two World League Semi-finals.

Ranbir Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and AnushkaSharma’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil to release in Diwali 2016!

Bada hai toh behatar haimight have been a popularnotion once, but Karan

Johar is here to prove it wrong. Ijust got my hands on this adorablelittle statue of KJo that standsproudly on his table. While the realKaran was lost in thought, hisminiature version was posingsmartly for the cam, which I’massuming was held by VarunDhawan since he was the one whoshared this pic on his Instagramaccount. Adorable as it is, whatcaught my interest more than thepic was Varun’s post; it gave thehint that Varun was expressing hisgratitude.

Now we know that Varun hasbeen giving one hit after anotherever since he made his Bollywood

debut. So it looked like Varun wasthanking Karan for giving him hislaunchpad in Student Of The Year,

which was a grand success. Afterpraising KJo, Varun even went onto say that Karan’s the man behindthe success of many people in theindustry. Hmmm… true that!

His post read, “varundvn#the-boss though he never behaves likeone this is my new name for@karanjohar the evergreen think-tank behind so many peoples suc-cess also this doll is limited edi-tion.”

I know he tried to lighten themood towards the end with his‘limited edition’ stint, but the realdrift here was something else.Wouldn’t you agree?

Is Varun Dhawan really crediting his success to Karan Johar?

Everyone and anyonewho have ever beena part of the dance

reality show have beeninjured at least oncethroughout the season.Ever since it wasannounced that SanayaIrani is going to be a partof JDJ 8th season, fanshave been going crazy withanticipation.

This will be Sanaya’scome back to TV after herdaily soap Rangrasiya.Although Sanaya has beena part of the dance showbefore but it was only as aspecial guest or to host anepisode. This time theactress will take on compe-tition head on. During therehearsals of the firstepisode Sanaya had anaccident. She fell downand hurt her ribs, but theactress ignored the painand carried on with herrehearsals. Unfortunately,the pain kept increasingand as soon as she finishedher shoot, Sanaya wasrushed to the hospital.

The pain had becomeunbearable and she col-lapsed after the shoot. Themakers immediately shift-ed her to the hospital. Wehear that Sanaya has beenadvised bed rest for sixdays, but she’s desperatelytrying to get back to the

stage.We wonder how the

actress will continue withthe show at this rate. Ribinjuries are definitely notsomething to be takenlightly. With the competi-tion increasing at everylevel, Sanaya will find itdifficult to keep up to therigorous training and exer-

tion. While we’d love tosee Sanaya dance and maybe even win the show, butdefinitely not at the cost ofher health. We thinkSanaya should skip thecompetition this year ‘cozwe wouldn’t want her tostress so much and put her-self in danger,right?
