New Delhi (ANI): Aaft-
ab Poonawalla has ad-
mitted to being high on
marijuana on the day of
the murder, police
sources claimed on Fri-
day
. They said that dur-
ing questioning Aaftab
told police that on May
18 after an argument
with Shraddha he left
home, smoked marijua-
na, and returned.
“When he came back,
Shraddha started yell-
ing at him again. Fol-
lowing which, he got
furious and strangled
her so violently that she
stopped breathing,” the
police sources told ANI.
“The victim was
strangled to death be-
tween 09.00 pm and
10.00 pm, and the ac-
cused sat next to her
body the whole night
and smoked marijua-
na,” they said.
Reportedly, the ac-
cused has admitted to
being addicted to mari-
juana, and revealed that
he disposed of some
pieces of the body in
Dehradun also.
The official however
said the accused may
have come out with this
story to mislead police.

FRIEND HELPED SHRADDHA FILE FIR
AGAINST AAFTAB AFTER HE BEAT HER
Mumbai (ANI): A friend of Shraddha Walkar claimed
on Friday that he helped her file a police complaint
against Aaftab Amin Poonawala. Rahul Rai, who iden-
tified himself as a friend of Shraddha’s,
said, “In 2020, we (him and other
friends) helped her file an FIR after
she reached out to us for help saying
Aaftab beat her. We took her home.”
“The police officer suggested detaining
Aaftab for interrogation but she said
such things happen in a relationship,”
he added. Rahul claimed the day after
she filed the complaint, the police
called her over to the police station.
She said she was scared that he (Aaftab) would kill
her as he has already tried to kill her before and had
beaten her multiple times, her friend recalled. “Aaftab
would lock her up at home and talk to other girls,”
Rahul claimed.

Terrorism should not
be linked to any
religion: Amit Shah
New Delhi: India recog-
nises that the threat of
terrorism “cannot and
should not” be linked to
anyreligion,nationality
or group, Union Home
Minister Amit Shah
said on Friday
.
Addressing a session
at the third ‘No Money
for Terror Ministerial’
Conference he said ter-
rorism is, undoubtedly
,
the most serious threat
to global peace and secu-
rity but financing of ter-
roris“moredangerous”.
“Terroristsareconstant-
ly finding new ways to
carry out violence, radi-
calise youth and raise
financial resources. Ad-
ditionally
, there is an in-
crease in the use of vir-
tual assets like crypto-
currency
. We need to
understand the patterns
of these darknet activi-
ties and find their solu-
tions,” Shah said. The
home minister said the
transformation of ter-
rorism from ‘Dynamite
to Metaverse’ and ‘
AK-47
to Virtual Assets’ is a
matter of concern.
Financing of
terrorism more
dangerous than
terrorism itself
—Amit Shah,
Home Minister
He did not target V D Savarkar but only
highlighted a “historical fact’. Rahul had

Goel of demanding Rs
1 crore from a junior

No video calls for inmates due
to ‘security reasons’ in Tihar
New Delhi: In a plea
moved by Pinjra Tod ac-
tivists Natasha Narwal
and Devangana Kalita
seeking video calling
facility for inmates in
Tihar jail whose fami-
lies are abroad, the jail
authorities informed
the Delhi High Court on
Friday that the same is
not provided due to “se-
curity reasons”.
A single judge bench
of Justice Yashwant
Varma was hearing a
plea by Narwal and Ka-
lita, who were granted
bail along with Asif
Iqbal Tanha on June 15,
2021, after their arrest
in the Delhi riots case
under the UAPA.
When the matter was
called on Friday, the
counsel for the state of
Delhi said that prison-
ers can avail of the dai-
ly calling facility, to
which the petitioner’s
counsel replied that not
all inmates may be able
to avail of it due to the
high charges (starting
from Rs 400). The court
said it wants to hear the
matter and listed it on
February 9.
Natasha Narwal (L) and Devangana Kalita have filed the petition.
While still in jail, Narwal and Kalita had moved the
high court in April 2021 stating that ‘physical
mulaqat’ at prisons in Delhi had been suspended in the
wake of the rising number of Covid cases in the national
capital, and prisoners were only allowed ‘e-mulaqat’ with
family members thrice a month for 15 minutes each.
Earlier, they would be allowed eight physical meetings a
month for 30 minutes each.

Delhi High Court has
declined to transfer from
Tihar Jail to Srinagar
Jail a 66-yr-old Jaish-
e-Mohammad (JeM)
militant, who is serv-
ing life term in a UAPA
case. Abdul Majeed Baba
sought transfer to his
native state jail pleading
his ill health and that his
family members were
unable to meet him fre-
quently. Justice Poonam
A Bamba said the Delhi
Prison Rules, 2018 only
provide that the prisoner
may be transferred from
one prison to another on
medical and humanitarian
grounds with prior ap-
proval of the government.

New Delhi (PTI): Delhi
University has sought
the UGC’s intervention in
the matter of reappoint-

Varghese as principal
of St Stephen’s College,
alleging that his exten-

Man accused of
pushing woman
to death held
after encounter
Lucknow (PTI): Sufi-
yan, the man accused of
pushing to death a
19-year-old woman, was
arrested on Friday in a
police encounter here
during which he was shot
in the leg, a senior police
official said.
The woman was pushed
to death from the fourth
floor of a building on
Tuesday night allegedly
by her neighbour who
was trying to befriend
her and force her to con-
vert, according to the vic-
tim’s family.
Dubagga Station House
Officer (SHO) Sukhvir
Singh Bhadauriya told
PTI, “Sufiyan was arrest-
ed in an encounter at
around 1pm. He suffered a
bullet injury on his right
feet. He has been admitted
to King George’s Medical
University (KGMU).”
The family members of
the young woman had al-
leged that Sufiyan, who is
in his early 20s, was forc-
ing her to convert to Islam.
According to the police,
Sufiyan had given a mo-
bile phone to the woman,
and when her family came
to know about it, they
reached his house to con-
front them. “While the
two families were talking,
the accused took the girl
to the fourth floor of the
building and allegedly
pushed her down from
there,” JCP Moradia said.

PRIVATE SECTOR’S
SUCCESSFUL
SPACE DEBUT WITH
PRARAMBH
tep aside Elon Musk,
a private start-up
Skyroot Aerospace
made a historic de-
but when it success-
fully launched the country’s
first privately made rocket
named Vikram-S after founder
of India’s space programme
Vikram Sarabhai into space on
Friday. It is a milestone for the
private sector marking its entry
into the commercial space pro-
gramme. Of course Vikram-S is
much smaller than Elon Musk’s
Falcon but then Skyroot Aero-
space is only four-year old and
the government passed laws to
reform the space sector only in
2020 allowing the private sector
to use ISRO’s infrastructure.
That came as a big boost to pri-
vate players and culminated in
Friday’s launch of Prarambh.
Vikram-S mission was aptly
named “Prarambh”, the Begin-
ning, to demonstrate the techno-
logical capability of Skyroot.
The fledgling private sector’s
space programme faces the con-
straint of funds and may need
foreign direct investment. Be-
sides, it will also need the gov-
ernment’s support by way of
cuts in import duty, incentives
in taxes and domestic manufac-
ture of space equipment.

S
ahul Gandhi’s
Bharat Jodo Yatra
is not drawing the
media attention
which it might de-
serve, but his remark against
RSS ideologue Vinayak Sa-
varkar for seeking apology
from the British government
during the Maharashtra leg
of his yatra has certainly
caught the attention of both
his allies and rivals. At a time
when Hindutva is the domi-
nant word and its strong in-
fluence is all pervasive, at-
tacking Savarkar in Maha-
rashtra requires some cour-
age. Or is it foolhardy on Ra-
hul Gandhi’s part as the
Congress is part of Uddhav
Shiv Sena-led MVA alliance
along with Nationalist Con-
gress Party? Uddhav Thack-
eray and his party’s leader
Sanjay Raut have both dis-
tanced themselves from Ra-
hul’s remark and categori-
cally stated that their party
has only love immense re-
spect for Savarkar.
At one of his press confer-
ences Rahul said that he
wasn’t sure of votes which
his yatra will fetch for Con-
gress but with his comment
on Savarkar won’t help par-
ty’s cause, which is almost
non-existent in Maharash-
tra. Attacks on Congress of-
fices in different parts of
state go to show how sensi-
tive an issue Savarkar is.
Moreover, Rahul Gandhi
must realise that whipping a
dead horse won’t make it
run. If questioning Sa-
varkar’s loyalty to nation
could fetch votes then the
Congress wouldn’t have been
ousted from power. Rahul has
given BJP a chance to hit
back at him. BJP reminded
Rahul of Indira Gandhi who
said that “Veer Savarkar’s
daring defiance of the Brit-
ish Government has its own
importance in the annals of
our freedom movement”.

SUSTAINABLE POLITICS: THE
RISE OF GREEN PARTIES
he agitation towards the mas-
sive environmental damage
has grown up fast in the last
few decades. It has reached
now beyond the personal
stakes and political parties
are taking growing responsi-
bility across continents. In
European countries, it is a
sigh of relief that certain po-
litical parties have taken cli-
mate change and the environ-
ment to the core agenda. This
has incarnated in the percep-
tion of green political parties
and attempts to encode the
future of politics. What is af-
ter all a green party? Green
political parties reflect a
broader social movement
seeking to reorient civiliza-
tion in what supporters say is
a more sustainable and hu-
man direction and way of
socio-economics. The envi-
ronmental concerns began
with opposition to nuclear
power but have expanded to
include climate change, pol-
lution, and industrial agri-
culture. Apart from climate,
these so-called green parties
encompass some grass root
issues such as socio-econom-
ic challenges, democracy,
non-violence, and ecological
sustainability
.
However new this idea
seems to us, it has its roots in
the wave of social movement
in industrial societies begin-
ning in the 1960s. The student
movement of 1968 in Europe
broke with the earlier forms
of class-based worker organ-
izing, preferring instead rad-
ical critiques of industrial
civilization itself and the
utopian vision of life in har-
mony with the environment.
The first green party was
formed in Australia. The UK
‘s people’s party was the first
in Europe warning the col-
lapse of ecological wrap-up.
“It was not until the 1980s
that the first green party
went mainstream- in West
Germany a stronghold of
green politics. The west Ger-
man greens contested nation-
wide in 1980 and then in 1983
became a full-fledged politi-
cal force by entering parlia-
ment with twenty-seven
seats. By the 1990s, green
were contesting, and often
winning seats at local, state,
and national level across Eu-
rope”. The beginning of the
21st century witnessed an
increasing breakthrough
into the European main-
stream. Latvia`s Emsis be-
came the first-ever prime
minister from a green party
in 2004, and greens entered
governments in Belgium,
France, Italy, and elsewhere.
By 2022, with mainstream
parties continuing to lose
popularity and climate
change getting hold of the
voter’s attention, green par-
ties were in national govern-
ments in Austria, Belgium,
Finland, Germany, Ireland,
and Luxembourg. If we move
our attention to Asia, the
Middle East, and a huge con-
tinent Africa, we find not so
big of a favorite pie in green
politics. However, naturally,
rich Africans seem they have
less of a foothold in the green
concept of political theory.
“Africa has seen a range of
environmental activism, in-
cluding the Green Belt Move-
ment, led by Kenyan Nobel
Peace Prize laureate Wangari
Maathai, but few electoral
gains. Rwanda is the only Af-
rican country with greens in
parliament.
The nuclear disaster in Ja-
pan has led to some awaken-
ing in commotion. It led to a
force in the political arena
but remains not so popular.
In Middle east, the green per-
ception is fragmented and
has not seen the rising popu-
larity of green political ideol-
ogy to its peak. In India green
thinking has made some in-
roads as Indian politics
seems to be on the threshold
of green politics with energy
policies and environmental
safety issues gaining popu-
larity. India as the leading
technological giant and one
of the largest growing econo-
mies across the globe carries
a huge influence on world
politics and is very impres-
sionable. Green future poli-
tics has gained the support
of hundreds of political par-
ties from all over the world,
revealing the evolving ideol-
ogy and expansion from local
environmental groups to de-
cision-makers. The gap be-
tween the urban class ideol-
ogy and worker class real-life
issues, which was seen ini-
tially as a massive challenge
seems to be bridged everyday
brick by brick. “Climate and
environmental protection is
a question of equitability be-
tween present and future
generations.” In this, we as
voters and citizens have a
special responsibility: How
we act today determines the
conditions governing the life
of tomorrow’s generation.
It’s not only cutting down the
emission waste from cars or
lessening the vehicle sounds,
maybe promoting kids to bik-
ing. This is something funda-
mental that every child de-
serves. That’s why not only to
bequeath to future genera-
tions modern, environmen-
tally sensitive technologies:
not only energy use from re-
newable energy sources, and
recycling and energy-saving
systems, but also systems
providing environment-safe
mobility instead of gridlock
in all arenas of life. These are
the outcomes that will guar-
antee the life quality of a safe
future in the long term. This
is a task that transcends the
borders of any country alone
and functions across borders.

CENTRE, DELHI MAY
PAY 50% EACH OF
AWARD TO DAMEPL
New Delhi : The DMRC
on Friday told the Delhi
High Court that the Centre
and state government
might have a meeting by
December 12 to consider
the issue of making 50
per cent payment each of
the arbitral award, which
was passed in favour of
Reliance Infrastructure-
owned Delhi Airport Metro
Express Private Limited.
Justice Kameswar Rao was
informed by Attorney Gen-
eral R Venkataramani that
because of the intervening
elections in Delhi, the gov-
ernments need some more
time and a cabinet meeting
is required.
Sharat K Verma
New Delhi: There was a
time when the Left, lib-
eral intellectuals of the
country used to allege
that the RSS and BJP
wererumourmongering
factories. On the other
hand,theSanghandBJP
alleged that the Left, lib-
eral intellectuals create
narratives according to
their ideology and prop-
agate and establish
them. But now the Aam
AadmiPartyhaslefteve-
ryone behind in this
work. Like those who
engage in ‘yellow jour-
nalism’,AAPleaderssay
anything about any par-
ty or leader. They would
hold a press conference
and make a big claim
and publicize it in social
media, but later these
claims turn out to be
completely wrong.
The latest issue is the
resignationof allthedis-
trict presidents of Delhi
BJP
. AAP’s chief and na-
tionalspokespersonSau-
rabh Bhardwaj said at a
press conference that
because of AAP
, there is
such panic within the
BJP that all its district
presidents have re-
signed. After this state-
ment, the BJP was
shocked because the res-
ignation of any district
president had not
reached the party presi-
dent. The reality is that
noBJPdistrictpresident
has resigned. Similarly
,
recently
, AAP MLA
DurgeshPathakclaimed
that BJP was denying
tickets to all its former
councillors. The fact is
thatthepartyhasfielded
nine former mayors and
52 former councillors.
Earlier, AAP chief
Arvind Kejriwal him-
self had spread various
rumours about Gujarat!
He started saying from
June-July that fearing
AAP, BJP is going to
hold elections ahead of
time. But the reality is
that elections are being
held on time. Kejriwal
and his party leaders
have said many times
that fearing AAP
, BJP is
going to replace Gujarat
StatePresidentCRPatil.
The reality is that even
now the BJP is contest-
ing elections under the
command of CR Patil.
The funny thing is
that many AAP leaders
sometimes become
journalists and tell
journalists only that
they have got such and
such news and claim it
to have been learnt from
sources. Sometimes
they become psepholo-
gists and tell that in
their survey it has come
to know that such and
such thing is happen-
ing. Sometimes they be-
come astrologers and
claim that a certain
work is going to happen.
AAP’s ‘strategic weapon’ used for ‘tactical’ gains!
“DISINFORMATION”

GUJARAT
WAS RAM TEMPLE OR ARTICLE 370
REMOVAL POSSIBLE UNDER CONG: YOGI
Wankaner (PTI): Uttar
Pradesh Chief Minister
Yogi Adityanath on Fri-
day suggested that con-
struction of a grand
Ram Temple in Ayod-
hya has became possi-
ble only because a
Bharatiya Janata Par-
ty-led government un-
der Prime Minister
Narendra Modi is at the
helm at the Centre and
asked if the project
would not have been
feasible under a Con-
gress dispensation.
At a rally here in sup-
port of BJP candidate
Jitu Somani, Adity-
anath said the time has
come to fulfil Mahatma
Gandhi’s wish of dis-
solving the Congress
and said the Opposition
party was not capable of
protecting the country
.
The UP CM said the
now-abolished Article
370 of the Constitution
was the root cause of
terrorism in JK.
He targeted the Con-
gress and sought to
know if a Ram Temple
and abrogation of Arti-
cle 370, which provided
special status to JK,
would have been possi-
ble if the main Opposi-
tion party had been in
power at the Centre.
Mahesh Sharma
New Delhi: The Con-
gress party in Guja-
rat is constantly clar-
ifying that it has
nothing to do with
the Aam Aadmi Par-
ty and inform the
voters that it is nei-
ther with AAP now
nor will it ever go
ahead. In fact, in the
past, former Con-
gress President and
former Union Minis-
ter Bharat Singh
Solanki has said that
if the Aam Aadmi
Party gives its sup-
port, the Congress
will have no objec-
tion. However, he
added that he has
said this in his per-
sonal capacity and
has not given the
opinion of the Con-
gress. But after this,
continuous clarifica-
tion was given by the
Congress. Many Con-
gress leaders also
criticized Solanki
and said that he was
the state president at
the time of the last
election and Con-
gress could not win
the election because
of the defeat of 15
candidates selected
by him.
Actually Congress
is worried about re-
peating the history
of Delhi. Congress
also won eight seats
in Delhi in 2013, but
the result of forming
the government by
supporting AAP has
been that the Con-
gress came down to
zero in the 2015 elec-
tions and has re-
mained at zero since
then. Congress feels
that even the core
vote of the Congress
can go towards AAP
if it shows any close-
ness to it. That is why
Congress leaders are
refusing to coordi-
nate. But the Aam
Aadmi Party has
kept a strategic si-
lence on this. In a
program of a media
group, Arvind Kejri-
wal was asked if he
would take the side
of the Congress if
needed, but Kejriwal
avoided answering
the question. rather
he asked to be wished
good luck so that
AAP can form gov-
ernment. In this way,
he has indicated co-
ordination with the
Congress. Now Con-
gress has to answer
this.

formation Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur on Thursday
said that if the state is riot-free today it is because of BJP and
PM Modi. “If Gujarat is riot-free today then it’s because of BJP
and PM Modi. The more Gujarat progresses, the more India
will progress. If Gujarat wins, then India will progress,” Thakur
said. Thakur took a swipe at the Congress and said that it has
ruled the country to “divide” people. “Congress only divided
the country on the basis of caste, religion and area and ruled
this country for over 60 years,” Thakur said. He further took
a pot-shot at the former UPA government saying that it didn’t
pay attention to the Tribal communities of the country.
Bhavnagar (Agencies): Maharashtra Deputy CM Devendra
Fadnavis on Friday took a jibe at Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi
Party and compared it to dancers at a wedding. While address-
ing an election rally in Gujarat’s Bhavnagar, Fadnavis said, “In
every marriage, dancers come uninvited and leave. Similarly, for
the Gujarat elections, Aam Aadmi Party has come without any
invitation. Kejriwal is the biggest liar,” Fadnavius said. Apart from
Kejriwal, Fadnavis also took a pod shot at Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat
Jodo Yatra and spoke about the Centre’s vaccination drive.

Singh Chouhan on Friday took a dig at Delhi
CM Arvind Kejriwal and Congress leader
Rahul Gandhi by calling them “babul tree”
and “shrub” respectively and said that the
former would give only thorns while the latter
would “destroy the crop”. He also called PM
Narendra Modi “kalpavriksha” stating that the
people will get whatever they want from him.
Chouhan was addressing an election rally
here. “Narendra Modi is a ‘kalpavriksha’, you’ll
get whatever you want. Kejriwal is a babul
tree, you’ll get only thorns. Rahul Gandhi is
a shrub that will destroy the crops,” he said.
Chouhan slammed Rahul Gandhi for his
remarks on freedom fighter Savarkar and said
that the country will never forgive him for “in-
sulting” him. “Rahul Gandhi insulted Veer Sa-
varkar yesterday. The man who was sentenced
to punishment equalling two lifetimes, the one
who sacrificed everything for the country. You
insult such a freedom fighter, this country will
never forgive you,” Chouhan said.
Kolkata: A court at
Tufanganj in West Bengal’s
Cooch Behar on Friday
issued an arrest warrant
against BJP MP and Union
Minister of State John
Barla, in connection with a
case of violation of model
code of conduct during
the Lok Sabha elections in
2019. According to public
prosecutor Sanjay Burman,
on April 4, 2019, a motor-
cycle rally was taken out at
the premises of the block
development office (BDO)
in Tufanganj violating the
model code of conduct.
Barla, who was the BJP
candidate from Alipurduar,
was present at the rally.
New Delhi: Chief Justice
of India DY Chandrachud
on Friday remarked that a
lawyer appearing in court
without carrying a copy
of his brief is like Sachin
Tendulkar without his bat
on the cricket pitch. CJI
Chandrachud said, “A
lawyer without a brief is
Sachin Tendulkar without
his bat.” The CJI also com-
mented to the lawyer that it
looks bad that the lawyer is
wearing a gown and band
but doesn’t have a copy of
the brief. The court passed
this remark as it noted that
a lawyer was arguing his
case without any copy of
the brief.
New Delhi: The Supreme
Court on Friday sought the
response of the Madhya
Pradesh govt to a plea
challenging the selection
process for appointment of
civil judges. The court was
hearing a petition challeng-
ing the minimum 40 per
cent marks allotted for the
interview conducted as part
of the selection process for
appointment to the post of
civil judge conducted by
the Madhya Pradesh High
Court. A bench of Justices
K M Joseph and Hrishikesh
Roy issued notices to the
state government and the
registrar of the high court
on the plea.
Surat (ANI): Lashing out at
Rahul Gandhi over his re-
marks against VD Savarkar,
BJP chief JP Nadda on Fri-
day said that the Congress
leader is out on the road do-
ing Bharat Jodo Yatra to “not
to unite India, but to break
it”. “Just yesterday, Rahul
Gandhi gave a condemnable
statement against freedom
fighter Veer Savarkar. This
shows what their thinking is,
they have not come out to
unite India, they have come
out to break it,” Nadda said
at an election rally here. He
accused Gandhi of standing
with those who protested
against the hanging of Afzal
Guru, the mastermind of
the Parliament attack, at the
Jawaharlal Nehru University
in 2016. “Congress always
works to break the country.
Rahul Gandhi even went to
Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru
University and stood with
those who protested against
the hanging of Afzal Guru,
mastermind of the Parlia-
ment attack,” he alleged.
Indore (PTI): A shop in
Madhya Pradesh’s In-

ter threatening that
bomb blasts would be
carried out in the city if
the participants of the
Bharat Jodo Yatra led
by Rahul Gandhi make
a scheduled overnight
stay at a local stadium
on November 28,
prompting the police to
launch investigation, an

GUJARAT: MAN GETS DEATH SENTENCE
FOR RAPING AND MURDERING MINOR
Vadodara: A special POCSO court in Gujarat’s Vadodara
has sentenced a man to death for raping and murder-
ing a minor girl in 2019. Special Judge JA Thakkar on
Thursday awarded capital punishment and also slapped
a fine of Rs 1.30 lakh on Sanjay Baria. The Judge
observed, “Sanjay Baria raped and strangulated the girl,
who was just a little older to his daughter. It was a heni-
ous crime but Baria has no remorse for the offence he
has committed, that is why this case is rarest of rare.”
On May 17, 2019, Sanjay kidnapped the eight-year-old
girl from the slums of the Goraj village in Vadodara. He
took her to bushes, raped and strangulated her and fled
the crime scene. When the parents started search-
ing for the missing girl and were unable to trace her,
the police were informed, and the next morning, the
victim’s body was found from bushes.
Bhubaneswar (Agen-
cies): Ahead of Padam-
pur bypoll, the BJP on
Friday launched an in-
definite dharna “satya-
graha” in front of the
Odisha Assembly to
protest “anti-farmer
policies” of BJD govt.
The party has
launched this dharana
over several issues of
farmers including farm
assistance, crop insur-
ance, supply of fertilis-
ers and Kalia money
distribution.
The BJP leaders al-
leged that the state gov-
ernment’s potato mis-
sion and onion mission
have completely failed.
But despite that, there
is no policy in place to
help farmers recover
losses, they said.
They said the farmers
are getting Rs 4,000 un-
der the Kalia scheme in-
stead of Rs 10,000 as
promised in 2019 polls.
Due to irregularities in
opening of mandis, the
farmers are forced to sell

Minister Rishi Sunak has
said that the UK govern-

to working “as quickly as

cessful conclusion to the
ongoing free trade agree-
ment (FTA) talks with In-

substantive negotiation

pleted at the end of last
month.
The British Indian leader
updated Parliament that he
reviewed progress on the
FTA during his first meet-
ing with Prime Minister
Narendra Modi since tak-

concluded by the end of
October. We will now work
at pace with the Indian

“sacrifice quality for
speed” because it is impor-
tant to take the time to get
trade deals right.

TERROR FINANCING
more dangerous than
terror, says HM Shah
New Delhi (PTI): Ter-
rorism is the most seri-
ous threat to global
peace and security, but
terror financing is
more dangerous than
terrorism itself, Union
Home Minister Amit
Shah said on Friday
.
To achieve the goal of
“No Money for Terror”,
the global community
must understand the
“Mode - Medium - Meth-
od” of terror financing
and adopt the principle
of ‘One Mind, One Ap-
proach’ in cracking
down on it, he said .
He noted that in the
last few years, India un-
derPMNarendraModi’s
leadership has succeed-
ed in cracking down on
terror financing, and
said that the “means
and methods” of terror-
ism are nurtured from
such funding.
“The transformation
of terrorism from ‘dy-
namite to metaverse’
and ‘AK-47 to virtual as-
sets’ is definitely a mat-
ter of concern for the
countries of the world.
And we all have to work
together to formulate a
common strategy
against it,” he said.
“The darknet is being
used by terrorists to
spread radical content
and conceal their identi-
ties. Additionally, there
is an increase in the use
of virtual assets like
cryptocurrency
.Weneed
to understand the pat-
terns of these darknet
activities and find their
solutions,” Shah said.
“I believe that financ-
ing of terrorism is more
dangerous than terror-
ism itself because the
‘means and methods’ of
terrorism are nurtured
from such funding. Fi-
nancing of terrorism
weakens the economy
of countries,” Shah told
delegates at the confer-
ence hosted by the Min-
istry of Home Affairs.
Terrorists and terror
groups now understand
the nuances of modern
weapons, information
technology, and the dy-
namics of cyber and fi-
nancial space very well,
Shah ssaid.

Referring to the regime change in Afghanistan, the
home minister said after August 2021, the situation in
the South Asian region has changed and the grow-
ing influence of Al-Qaeda ISIS has emerged as a
significant challenge to regional security. “These new
equations have made the problem of terror financing
more serious. Three decades ago, the whole world
had to bear the serious consequences of one such
regime change, the result of which we all have seen in
the horrific attack of 9/11,” he said. Shah said in this
background, slast year’s changes in the South Asian
region are a matter of concern for everyone.
New Delhi (ANI): National Investigation Agency
(NIA) Director General Dinkar Gupta on Friday said
that terrorist activities have declined
significantly in the country in the last
eight years under the leadership of
Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “It’s
an honour for me to welcome Prime
Minister Narendra Modi. Sir, your
zero-tolerance policy to terrorism, the
whole of government approach, along with the strong
and resolute leadership provided by you has brought
about a remarkable change in the security scenario of
the country,” the NIA DG said.

POSES CHALLENGE TO SOUTH ASIA: HM
TERRORIST ACTIVITIES HAVE DECLINED
SIGNIFICANTLY UNDER PM MODI: NIA DG
In a veiled attack on Pa-
kistan and China, Shah
said there are countries
that “seek to undermine,
or even hinder, our col-
lective resolve to fight
terrorism”. “We have
seen that some nations
protect and shelter
terrorists. Protecting a
terrorist is equivalent
to promoting terrorism.
It will be our collective
responsibility that such
elements never succeed
in their intentions,” Shah
said. “We also have to
expose the double-speak
of such elements who
support them.” There-
fore, it is important that
this conference, the
participating countries,
and organisations do
not take a selective or
complacent perspective
of the challenges of this
region, he said.

IN THE COURTYARD
Place Navlakha under house arrest
within 24 hours‘without fail’: SC
New Delhi (PTI):
Trashing the NIA’s ar-
guments, the Supreme
CourtonFridayordered
Gautam Navlakha to be
placed under house ar-
rest “without fail” with-
in 24 hours.
Navlakha is under
judicial custody in
Taloja Jail in Navi
Mumbai in connection
with the Elgar Pari-
shad-Maoist link case.
A bench of Justices KM
Joseph and Hrishikesh
Roy passed the order
after sharp exchanges
between the prosecu-
tion and the court.
The bench, however,
ordered some addition-
al security measures to
be put in place at the
building where Nav-
lakha will be kept un-
der house arrest.
“Our order of Novem-
ber 10 shall be given ef-
fect to without fail with-
in 24 hours,” the bench
said. The NIA had
moved the SC on Thurs-
day seeking vacation of
its order for house ar-
rest, saying Navlakha,
being a charge-sheeted
accused in a case involv-
ing threat to national
security and integrity,
does not deserve any ex-
tra leeway
.
The bench, however,
went ahead with its No-
vember 10 order of
placing the 70-year-old
activist under house ar-
rest. The top court said
a kitchen door leading
to the exit should be
locked and sealed along
with the grille win-
dows whose keys can
be kept by the NIA and
another CCTV camera
shall be installed at the
southern door which
leads to the exit.

The NIA, represented by
Solicitor General Tush-
ar Mehta, raised con-
cerns about the safety
of the location chosen
by Navlakha’s team and
urged the court to scrap
the house
arrest
ruling.
The court
reacted
sharply
to the
objections. “Is Solicitor
General Mehta (Addi-
tional Solicitor General
SV Raju) here to say
that the police can’t
keep a watch on an ail-
ing 70-year-old man?”
When the NIA sought
time till Monday, Justice
KM Joseph snapped:
“You think we cannot
see through attempts
to delay the case? For
what purpose will we
post on Monday? We
are passing an order.”
COURT’S RETORT
TO MEHTA
New Delhi: The Delhi
High Court on Friday
deferred hearing till No-
vember 21 on bail pleas
of Khalid Saifi and oth-
er accused persons in a
UAPA case related to the
alleged conspiracy be-
hind the 2020 riots.
A bench of Justices
Siddharth Mridul and
Rajnish Bhatnagar said
that being a special
bench, it does not as-
semble on a regular ba-
sis and therefore, it has
to “take a call” on
whether these bail
pleas can be heard by it
or if they have to be
sent to the designated
bench for such cases.
“We are posting all
of them for 2:15 pm on
Monday. We will have
to take a call. This is
likely to take a long
time. We will have to
take a call on whether
we can devote some
time every day in the
post-lunch session,”
the bench said.
It observed that the
cases were not part
heard before it and were
only tagged along with
the bail plea by co-ac-
cused Umar Khalid.

The high court, how-
ever, stayed its order for
a week so that the Na-

ecuting agency in the

hen you culti-
vate a deep
sense of faith
in your abili-
ties and an in-
d o m i t a b l e
spirit, noth-
ing can stop you from
succeeding in your
pursuits and living
with great rewards,
the quote has been

The 21 years old,
Kalpana Yadav is cur-
rently pursuing her
bachelor’s degree from
Delhi University. She
is also a national-level
archer, athlete and cer-
tified yoga trainer. Ac-
cording to Kalpana,
her father is the inspi-
ration behind her be-
ing independent in to-
day’s world.
“Being brought up
in a boarding school
taught me accountabil-
ity and self-contain-
ment. Becoming a role
model came naturally
to me after losing my
mother at 17. There are
ample opportunities in
life, the thing is we
need to find our call-
ing. I am grateful to the
First India Queen for
giving me this oppor-
tunity and also ex-
tremely thankful to the
Jagdeesh Chandra Sir
for finding me worthy
enough to be in the
show.” Talking about
self-acceptance beauty
said, “Some challenges
are physical attributes
of a person that needs
to be accepted by one
because we need to un-
derstand that we all
are unique. At the end
of the day, acceptance
is something we all
should cherish. Per-
sonality is super essen-
tial to make a mark in
modelling and that is
our part to leave a
mark in society on
the way we speak, the
way we carry our-
selves, and how people
respect us.” expressed
Kalpana.
While stating her
achievements Kalpana
shared “I have been an
athlete there are a lot
of rewarding moments
in my life, But a re-
warding moment in
the modelling/pageant
field is When I won
Runway 1. Miss Guru-
gram 1 st runner up
and Miss body fit title.
And lastly, I believe
taking small steps
towards higher goals
and accomplishing
those goals is some-
thing that motivates
me. There are more to
come in future for me
and I am looking for-
ward to it.”
