With dal prices touching a record Rs 210 per kg, the government today went into a fire fighting mode, raiding hoarders to recov-er about 36,000 tonnes of pulses, which along with the imports will be pushed into the market to cool prices. Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, who today called a meet-ing of the inter-ministe-rial group for the second time in a week, blamed the states for not doing enough to crack down on hoarders and black mar-keteers. As much as 5,000 tonnes of imported puls-es have already arrived and are being distributed to the states and another 3,000 tonnes are on the way, Jaitley added. In the national capital, imported tur dal (pigeon peas) is being sold at a subsidised rate of Rs 120 per kg at nearly 500 outlets of Ken-driya Bhandar and Safal. “It is a matter of regret that most states are doing nothing to discharge their responsibility in taking action against hoarders.

Jaitley warned of penal action against the hoard-ers even as he expected prices to cool at retail lev-el in the next two-three days after quantity seized in raids as well as those imported are released in the market. “The raids are still continuing and over

the next 2-3 days, more raids which are been con-ducted by the states, more more hoarded quantity is likely to be recovered,” Jaitley said. “There is time lag between whole-sale price easing and retail price easing… therefore, it is slowly then translat-ed into price easing into the market itself,” he said. The Bharatiya Janata Par-ty (BJP) and its allies have a new headache in Bihar:

And many voters in Bihar, in the midst of stag-gered assembly elections, seem to be in agreement. “We voted for Modi (in the 2014 Lok Sabha election) as he promised to check price rise,” said

Ganesh Rai, who runs a construction business near Chitkohra here. “But he has failed to check the prices of food items. Dal is selling at

Rs.200 a kilo. Who can afford it?” It is an issue that affects not just the poor but the more vocal middle class too. With hardly a week to go for

QUOTE OF THE

DAYPolitical intolerance should not be allowed to destroy the idea of India

On Monday, President Pranab Mukherjee expressed “apprehension whether tolerance and acceptance of dissent are on the wane”. There is a sense of fore-warning and, perhaps, frustration, in his remarks. This is the third time in three weeks the president has spoken out. He rightly realises the rise of big-otry and its violent expressions are a threat to In-dia’s civilisational foundations. In his view, Indian civilisation survived when many ancient civilisa-tions collapsed because it celebrated diversity and promoted tolerance. As Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, there could be no greater guiding princi-ple than the message from the president. However, outfits like the Shiv Sena seem deaf to sane advice. Just days after forcing the cancellation of a Ghulam Ali concert and attacking Sudheendra Kulkarni, the Sena on Monday disrupted a meeting of BCCI chief Shashank Manohar and Pakistan Cricket Board head Shahryar Khan in Mumbai. The intent was to scuttle a possible revival of cricket ties. The Sena’s lumpen behaviour triggered a quick response from the ICC, now headed by Pakistani legend Zaheer Abbas. The ICC withdrew Pakistani umpire Aleem Dar from the ongoing India-South Africa series, citing a threat to Pakistani nationals. Wasim Akram and Shoaib Akhtar dropped out of the commentary team and left India. Abbas also put a question mark over Pakistan’s participation in next year’s WorldT20 championship in India. Few countries are willing to tour Pakistan due to the violence there. The Sena has allowed the ICC to draw a parallel between Pakistan and India. The Sena’s political bankruptcy in staging mock battles with Pakistani musicians, intellectuals, cricketers and so on when Maharashtra is reeling under an un-precedented drought is astonishing. Should Mum-bai, home to Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tendulkar, get dropped from cricket tours, the Sena alone is to be blamed. The Shiv Sena is the most organised of the vigilante groups that now roam the country. The Hindu Sena that poured ink and paint on J&K MLA Sheikh Abdul Rashid in New Delhi and the group that targeted an Australian couple for sport-ing a tattoo in Bangalore belong to the same flock of hoodlums who now threaten the cosmopolitan core of Indian cities. The government must act against them, immediately and decisively.

American Tower Corporation (ATC) is finally set to own a controlling stake in Viom Networks in a deal that will value the Indian tower company at about 20,000 crore. The deal is expected to be announced on Wednesday. ATC will acquire the stake from a clutch of existing investors, includ-ing Kolkata-based Srei Infrastructure. The Tata Group, which currently owns a 54 per cent stake in Viom, will stay invested as a minority partner. The Boston-based telecom tower company has been eyeing this deal for more than a year, with negotiations almost breaking down in May. ATC has been in talks with Viom Networks since June last year but the negotiations got serious only in October. The big point of difference was the valuation, with Viom’s promoters wanting to use Bharti Infratel as the benchmark. Srei Infrastruc-ture had also looked at exiting Viom through an Initial Public Offering.

In the name of Patidar agitation, which has been lately a mindless, di-rectionless, whimsical, vicious and one-person centric anti-government casteist agitation, the nui-sance creators in Morbi belt continue to dam-age public properties. During the last 24 hours, some goons associated with this agitation have torched three buses of Gujarat State Road Trans-port Corporation(GS-RTC) in Morbi-Maliya belt. It needs, four to five persons only to set a bus on fire in dark night on in-terior highway road. The anti-social elements asso-ciated with the agitation are handful. When they gave bandh call in Morbi town yesterday, it evoked no response. Neither Pati-dar community, nor other persons outside this com-munity are with such row-dy behavior of handful

of agitators – some mis-guided and some others with their clear political goals. But due to these few rough people, many others have to suffer. In latest, the ST bus trans-portation on Morbi-Rajkot highway has been stopped by GSRTC as preven-tive measure. 50 buses to Morbi and 45 to Wank-aner are withdrawn from operation. Now imagine, due to some rough ele-ments, how may people will actually suffer due to unavailability of ST bus-es? Women, children, old people, students(when there’s exam period go-ing on),poor villagers, job goers … all will suffer.

A Jain monk ordered to appear in court in Ahmed-abad has said he needs eight months to get there because his strict faith prevents him from using any form of transport. Acharya Kirti Yashur-ishwarji Maharaj is cur-rently in Kolkata, about 2,200 kilometres (1,400 miles) from Ahmedabad -- a journey the 60-year-old says he will only un-dertake on foot. But a

court rejected his request for the lengthy journey and told him to appear in court next month. Ma-haraj faces charges of promoting Bal Diksha -- the recruitment of chil-dren into the Jain monas-tic order -- by publishing forged government docu-ments endorsing the prac-tice. The charge was filed by Jashmin Shah, a local Jain community leader who has fought a cam-paign against Bal Dik-

sha. Shah’s lawyer Nitin Gandhi told the court had ruled out an eight-month delay. “The court has is-sued a fresh bailable war-rant against the monk and directed him to appear before court by Novem-ber 4,” Gandhi said on Wednesday. Jains live an itinerant life, meaning Maharaj has no fixed ad-dress although he regu-larly visits Ahmedabad, home to many Jain holy sites.


Additional Advocate Gen-eral Kamal Trivedi and se-nior counsel Shalin Mehta Tuesday appeared for Gu-jarat High Court on a set of petitions challenging the termination of class-III and Class-VI employ-ees of the HC earlier last month.

The HC on October 24 terminated 89 employees who had been appointed by for-mer Acting Chief Justice (ACJ) V M Sahai using special power prescribed in the Constitution. Out of these employees, 41 have moved the court challeng-ing the termination by claiming that they were


The Banaskantha police on Tuesday arrested two persons for allegedly murdering a 52-year-old farmer and an RTI activ-ist Ratansinh Chaudhary of Garamdi village in Suigam taluka on Sat-urday. Chaudhary was killed for helping his friend Harkhabhai Ram-jibhai file an RTI appli-cation seeking informa-tion on cash doles given to flood-affected families by the district authorities in Garamdi and Kha-tau villages in July. The simple RTI query sought and was to be provided to villagers under “pro-active disclosure” by the district and panchayat au-

thorities. Four people of Chaudhary’s village are said to have accosted him and his son while they were walking towards their farm. They repeat-edly smashed his head with sticks and he died on the spot. “The RTI reply had clearly brought out that people who were not affected by the floods re-ceived cash doles worth Rs 55,000 and Rs 90,000 while the actual victims got just Rs 2,500,” said Kishore Chaudhry a res-ident of Khatau village. Ratansinh’s RTI query also sought the names of the beneficiaries, the cash dole received by individu-als and the copies of their application regarding the loss or cross-verification.

The case was dubbed the ISI conspiracy case due to alleged financial support by Pakistan spy agen-cy. Since 2003, Husain Shaikh along with his wife and three children - two sons and a daughter


The Gujarat High Court on Wednesday held as “il-legal” the two ordinances recently put out by the Gujarat government to postpone the local body elections .

Gujarat High Court quashes ordinance to postpone elections

the state government’s ordinance that allowed the poll panel to postpone elections on the ground that the situation was not conducive for holding free and fair elections in view of Patidar agitation for reservation. The state government had told the court that a “caste war” like situation prevailed, which would not allow the free conduct of elec-tions. The Gujarat gov-ernment had recently is-sued an ordinance putting off local bodies elections.

The ordinance allowed appointment of admin-istrators in local bodies since it wasn’t possible to hold elections and consti-tute body in corporations, panchayats and nagarpa-lika. These administra-tors would have control over the local bodies after expiry of their five year terms. The ordinance was passed stating that due to unforeseen circumstanc-es such as natural calami-ty, riots, disturbance, free and fair polls would not be possible.

ecutor Nayan Sukhad-vala submitted that the probe agency needed to interrogate him to find out whether anybody else was involved in “hatch-ing the conspiracy to kill policemen”. Hardik had given inflammatory state-ment before TV cameras and the statement itself was akin to acting against

the interests of the coun-try, he said. DCB was going to conduct “voice spectrography test” of Hardik at FSL to vali-date the evidence of TV footage, he said. Yash-vant Singhvada, Hardik’s lawyer, opposed the plea and said the government had slapped the sedition charge only to suppress

Patels’ movement. The alleged statement was against the police but not the government or the country, he argued. Har-dik was produced before the court after six-hour-long interrogation by DCB officials at Hajira police station, where he was kept for security rea-sons. The firebrand Patel leader was detained by the Rajkot rural police ahead of the India-South Afri-ca ODI on Sunday as he had threatened to disrupt it. On Monday, he was ar-rested by the Rajkot rural police for allegedly in-sulting the national flag, and after he got bail in the evening, Surat police ar-rested him in the sedition case.

will help the ruling party to face the elections with renewed vigour. The Ag-riculture and Cooperative Department Tuesday is-sued a circular to all the collectors and district development officers an-

nouncing the postpone-ment of the programme. However, the circular did not mention any reason for the same. When con-tacted, A M Solanki, prin-cipal secretary of the ag-riculture and cooperative

department, “Now, the government has plans to tie it up with Vibrant Gu-jarat Global Agriculture Summit to get the desired results. Besides, with Di-wali round the corner, the government had only a week in hand whereas by holding it in January it will get longer dura-tion for preparing well’’. As per the programme schedule, the ministers and government officers will visit and organise fairs and programmes across state. They will im-part knowledge on newer agriculture technology, methods along with dis-tribution of kits and new seeds among farmers.

- had been hiding at IAS Colony of Hakimpet. Af-ter the arrest, the Gujarat ATS sleuths gave notice to the Banjara Hills police under section 82 of the CrPC (proclamation of a person absconding) and took him to Ahmedabad. Addressing the media in Ahmedabad on Tues-day, J K Bhatt, inspector general of police (IGP) of ATS, said a team was working on the case for the last six months after locating Shaikh in Hy-derabad. “A team camped

in Hyderabad for nearly a fortnight, gathered in-formation on Shaikh’s movements and got co-operation from local po-lice.” Shaikh seldom went out and his wife used to get orders or deal with customers. When Shaikh went out on Sunday eve-ning for some shopping, the ATS team trailed him and caught him around 1.5 km away from his home and took him to the Banjara Hills police sta-tion. His family was then informed about the arrest.
