1. To improve the economic
condition of the farmers, Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi
has set a target. The goal is to
double the income of farmers
by 2022. For the first time, a
Prime Minister has put such a
target in front of the nation for
the welfare of farmers. Under
the leadership of the Prime
Minister, the Agriculture
Ministry is working to achieve
the target by 2022. The
Ministry is working sincerely
and honestly to fulfill our
Prime Minister’s dream. To
double the farmer income, a
large number of officials and
farmers have been taking a
pledge at events organized by
the KVK since August 16,
2017. It is important to improve
irrigation efficiency to increase
production. Therefore, our
government has increased the
irrigation budget. ‘Per Drop
More Crop’ is our motto.
Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai
Yojana has been launched to
mitigate the drought effect and
to ensure ‘water to every farm’.
Hence, pending medium and
large projects have also been
expedited. Watershed
development and water
harvesting & management
projects have been put on the
fast track. For the first time, our
government has introduced
Soil Health Card Scheme to
inform farmers about nutrients
status of the soils. This is
reducing the cultivation cost as
farmers are following the
recommendations and going
for balanced use of fertilisers.
In addition, the Government
has curbed illegal use.

The Vice President of
India, Shri M. Venkaiah
Naidu has said that people in
the country, particularly the
younger generation to be fully
acquainted with the roots of
Indian culture, ethos and
history. He was addressing the
gathering after releasing a
documentary film ‘Kumbh’
based on Kumbh Mela
produced by India Inspires
Foundation in association
with the Indus University,
here today. The Vice President
said that knowledge,
understanding and history
about the country to most
people were known through
the perspective of foreign
writers. He further said that
Kumbh Mela illustrates that
India is the spiritual capital of
the world and it is an event
where great spiritual
integration of people takes
place. Unfortunately, over the
past many years the projection
of Kumbh Mela was not
positive and accurate, he
pointed. There was a great
need for comprehensive
information from an
authenticated Indian
viewpoint about the origin,
history, significance of the
Kumbh Mela, he added.
Describing Kumbh Mela
as a glowing symbol of
India’s rich spiritual heritage,
the Vice President said that it
is the world’s biggest
gathering of pilgrims at any
one event. He further said that
millions from across India and
abroad gather to purify
themselves of their past sins
and seek salvation. It is
believed that a dip in the holy
waters cleanses the mind and
body of the past sins and
paves the way for Moksha, he
added. The Vice President
said that culture and religion
were not the same. “When we
talk of culture, we are not
talking of religion. Culture is
a way of living while religion
is a way of worship”, he
added.
The Vice President
complimented the makers of
the Kumbh Mela
documentary, and said there
was a need to go back to
Indian roots, culture, heritage
and values for harmonious
living of the people. He
further said that the film
showcases the origin of
Kumbh Mela and how it
became a torch-bearer of
Sanatana Dharma. It seeks to
provide an understanding of
the tradition of saints and
sages of India, among others,
he added.

3. SYNERGY, the India-
Georgia fusion dance perform-
ance was an unparalleled suc-
cess held at SIRI FORT at the
National Capital Delhi. After
the stupendous Mumbai &
Delhi performance, SYNER-
GY is all set to conquer the
hearts in more different cities.
Smt. Sumitra Mahajan,
Speaker of the Lok Sabha
graced the occasion to support
Hema Malini for keeping the
culture and traditions of India
alive as the cultural ambassador
of India. Hema Malini also per-
formed a surprise dance with
the Georgian dancers, specially
choreographed by Shiamak
Davar.
The festival SYNERGY
under the auspices of
JAYASMRITI (a dedication to
her mother’s memory to spread
the arts & culture of India),
highlighted the repertoire, cul-
tural richness & fearlessness of
Georgian dancers at a different
magnitude, and level of the
grace and timelessness of
Bharatnatyam, Kathak and
Pung Cholom.
Sukhishvili, the National
Ballet of Georgia had per-
formed in Delhi when Pandit
Jawaharlal Nehru was the
Prime Minister 50 years ago
when Raj Kapoor had invited
them to India. And now Hema
Malini has carried the traditions
further by bridging the cultural
Silk Road between Europe &
India.
Hema Malini now pres-
ents SYNERGY– an Indo-
Georgian dance fusion, it will
be a cultural Odyssey that will
expose the world to two ancient
cultures, India & Georgia and
give them the platform to show-
case their talent.
Well for the same Hema Ji
stated, “Our dances are of two
types, classical and folk-based
and are derived from the rich
treasure trove of mythology,
classical literature, and legends.
This year we are proud to asso-
ciate with another rich ancient
culture of GEORGIA, to create
a fusion, a SYNERGY. We
intend to grow every year under
JAYASMRITI and have such
wonderful collaborations with
different countries. India is so
culturally rich, a golden bowl of
culture and heritage and I want
to safe guard our culture, and
spread it across the world”
SYNERGY is proudly
supported by JIO DIGITAL &
VENKY’s.

11 - 17 Sept., 2017
George Patton Jr said, “I
don’t measure man’s success by
how high he climbs, but how
high he bounces back when he
hits the bottom.” Emotional and
physical setbacks often over-
whelm us. Stages of life are
soaked with such experiences.
As a child, we were frustrated
by not getting things that we
wanted dearly. In youth we may
have been bullied and rejected.
And so the story goes on in our
working and home lives, as we
grow older.
Yet, each time, we manage
to recover, after a few gaps of
silent suffering. During these
gaps we intentionally or unin-
tentionally, disconnect and
withdraw ourselves from out-
ward happenings, silently sub-
mitting and somehow connect-
ing with something deeper and
mysterious that overtakes us,
and finally gathering the
strength to bounce back. This
mysterious power is what drove
us to rise above all challenges
and carry on with life to the best
of our abilities.
This power is fundamental
to the universe. Evolution, for
example, is inherently driven
by an invisible force that is
highly creative and intelligent.
Species evolve, adapt and sur-
vive because of this force. The
entire universe is self-evolving
because of this. Scientists now
postulate that, at deeper levels,
the universe is non-local and
discontinuous – that is, it’s rap-
idly pulsating with an on-and-
off movement. Due to enor-
mous speed, “on” phase
appears linear and continuous
from where we derive and asso-
ciate our everyday experiences.
However, we are unable to
grasp the non-locality or dis-
continuity from where the mat-
ter and energy get projected.
The invisible off-phase is the
unified field of possibilities and
potential, wherein resides the
impulse of creation. This
impulse is the vibrating life-
force. An intelligent, creative
and dynamic force that mani-
fests, sustains, renews, har-
monises and maintains balance
and order in the cosmos. Since
life-force is universal, it
bequeaths resilience to every-
thing that exists in nature. Thus,
withstanding all mishaps,
nature continues to evolve.
Mind is an extension of this
deeper non-local reality and
profoundly influences our
actions. Originally it’s pure,
unconditioned and resilient.
However, the mind gradually
loses its resilience to acquired
knowledge and conditioning
and becomes finite and
localised. Consequently, we get
anchored and habituated to our
own comfort zones, secured
positions, stability, conformi-
ties, familiar situations, rela-
tionships and patterns of behav-
iour. We even adapt to our inner
negativities and comfortably
brood over the past, blame peo-
ple and situations for our mis-
eries and failures. On facing
new situations, changes or a
challenge we perceive them as
threats to ourselves. Only a
clear, supple mind, free from
rigid thoughts, beliefs and
fears, is capable of resilience
and is a powerful source of
imagination and creativity. To
restore resilience of mind, take
breaks and retreat into silence
with complete faith, and surren-
der in the life-force and simul-
taneously, maintain an attitude
of patience, perseverance, toler-
ance and optimism. These traits
serve as powerful enablers in
developing inner strength, will
and clarity that prevent negativ-
ity from overpowering us.
Practising them mindfully
helps in maintaining a mind-
body sync and as we experi-
ence inner peace the mind is
able to regain its original purity.
Once this is attained, the mind
inevitably connects with the
universal life-force and
becomes resilient enough to
pick new clues and signals and
we bounce back. “Defeat is in
our mind; resilience is in our
soul.”
The brutal killing of seven-
year-old Pradyuman inside the
bathroom of Ryan
International School in
Gurugram last Friday has led
to widespread protests, against
gross negligence by school
authorities. Police have arrest-
ed bus conductor Ashok
Kumar who confessed to try-
ing to molest the student and
then stabbing him.
Haryana’s education min-
ister Ram Bilas Sharma has
said the school could lose its
No Objection Certificate if the
departmental probe finds it
guilty of negligence. This is a
wake-up call for all govern-
ments to implement uniform
security norms, especially
where school managements
remain indifferent towards
student safety.
Consider the many security
breaches reported from the
Gurugram school. No house-
keeping staff was assigned to
assist young children in the
bathrooms. Non-teaching staff
was allowed in these bath-
rooms, leaving children at the
mercy of sexual predators.
And a killer had no difficulty
entering the school premises
with a knife. A Delhi branch
of this school made headlines
last year when a six-year-old
student drowned in its water
tank. The National
Commission for Protection of
Child Rights also found that
the school did not undertake
police-verification of its staff.
Unfortunately such irregulari-
ty is all too common at
schools across the country.
There is also a misconcep-
tion that only girl children are
unsafe in ill-secured schools.
Indeed reports of sexual abuse
of girl students have been
coming regularly from cities
like Bengaluru and Mumbai.
But the Gurguram case has
chillingly highlighted that the
boy child is also in crying need
of school security protocols.
Haryana government must
now ensure fair and speedy
probe as well as punishment
for all those responsible for
Pradyuman’s murder. But all
governments need to learn les-
sons from it, and ensure stu-
dents are safe in schools.

murder in Gurugram

PLE SUFFERING FROM AIDS
MANJINDER SINGH SIRSA SEEKS INTERVEN-
TION OF PRESIDENT TO SAVE GURUDWARAS
Aiming at the top rank in
the Swachhta Sarvekshan
2018 being conducted by the
Ministry of Urban
Development, Government
of India across the country,
the New Delhi Municipal
Council (NDMC) in associa-
tion of “Keep India
Beautiful” an NGO has
organized “Run to Clean” in
Connaught Place, New Delhi
early in the morning today.
As many as 1500 college
and school students from
Delhi University, Amity
University, Jamia Milia

Mahaveer International and
NDMC Schools participated
in the “Run to Clean
Swachhathon”. Speaking
after flagging off the
Swachhathon, NDMC
Medical Officer of Health,
Dr.P.K.Sharma said that stu-
dents were very much enthu-
siastic and involved whole
heartedly in the run and
added that however,
Swachhathon concept was a
new one, adopted by the
Ministry, but it was getting
good and overwhelming
response with the involve-
ment of youth in the
Swachhta Mission. Stressing
the importance of sanitation
and hygienic Dr.Sharma said
that it was the need of the
hour to make the swachhta
mission all success and
exhorted the students to
come forward to makeover

NEW DELHI, September
9: The Delhi Sikh Gurudwara
Management Committee
(DSGMC) General Secretary
Mr. Manjinder singh sirsa has
sought intervention of
President Mr Ram Nath
Kovind to save Gurdwaras sit-
uated in Sikkim which are in
danger of facing extinction due
to action of the local authori-
ties. S. SIRSA who met
President today brought to his
notice that the existence of
Gurdwara Gurudongmar Sahib
& Gurdwara Chungthang
Sahib in Sikkim are in a great
danger following the office of
Sub Divisional Magistrate,
Chungthang, North District
Sikkim has issued a letter on
01-09-2017 regarding the veri-
fication of claims made regard-
ing encroachment and illegal
construction by Chungthang
Gurdwara. This is also a very
controversial matter referred in
the letter and this needs imme-
diate attention. He also told
him that previously Gurdwara
Gurudongmar Sahib was in tar-
get where Saroop of Sri Guru
Granth Sahib Ji and other reli-
gious scared books were force-
fully evacuated by administra-
tion Sikkim Government and
local people of Sarv Dharma
Sthal in which Hon'ble
Supreme Court of India has
granted status of quo in demo-
lition of the said Gurdwara.
This unpleasant incidents hurt
the sentiments of the sikh com-
munity worldwide as these
both are historical gurdwaras
and witnessed to the visit of
First Sikh Guru Sri Guru
Nanak Dev Ji in the 15th centu-
ry while returning from Tibet.
Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji was
requested by the Local people
of Gurudongmar lake, to help
them to make the frozen lake, a
source of drinking water dur-
ing the winter period. On the
request of the local people, Sri
Guru Nanak Dev Ji touched a
part of the lake with a stick
(Daang) making the lake free
of snow throughout the year. A
Gurdwara was constructed in
the eighties to commemorate
Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji's visit to
the people. Later on, in the year
1997-98, an Indian Army regi-
ment of sikhs located at Indo-
China Border after learning
that the place has been visited
by Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji, they
further developed the
Gurdwara Sahib at the site and
since then, the affairs of the
said Gurdwara Sahib were
being managed by the devotees
of Guru Sahiban. He further
informed him that Delhi Sikh
Gurdwara Management
Committee immediately react-
ed and wrote letters to the
Hon'ble Prime Minister, Home
Minister, Governor of Sikkim,
Chief Minister of Sikkim. We
are very thankful that after
intervention of Sh. Raj Nath
Singh Ji, Hon'ble Home
Minister of India.

“Run to Clean” for “Clean India to Fit India”
organized by NDMC in Connaught Place
New Delhi, 9th Sept. BJP
Delhi President and MP Shri
Manoj Tiwari held a Janta
Darbar at his residence today.
In this Janta Darbar large num-
ber of HIV positive children
under the banner of an NGO
OPNP+ came to meet him.
These children and their par-
ents told him about the difficul-
ties being faced by them in
their daily lives.
Shri Tiwari spent some time
with the suffering children and
other persons. He expressed his
love to the children and
cheered the other persons suf-
fering from this disease. He
said that these people are fight-
ing for their lives and deserve
love and affection of the socie-
ty.
Shri Tiwari said that AIDS
is a contiguous disease hence
the society should not hate the
persons affected rather they
should extend their affection &
love and boost their morale.
Shri Shahil who is running the
NGO is himself HIV positive
and when he told his
story all the people
present in the Janta
Darbar became emo-
tional. He told that at
the age of 11 he
became the victim of
this disease due to
wrong blood transfu-
sion and after that his
village and family
boycotted him. He was
forced to leave the vil-
lage. The person who
was boycotted by the
society namely Shahil is today
helping 38000 people suffering
from this disease through the
aforesaid NGO. Shri Shahil
submitted a request letter to
MP Shri Tiwari and demanded
that those people who are in the
last phase of their life and have
their families should be provid-
ed employment so that they
may be able to do something
for their children. Shri Tiwari
assured that he will talk to the
Municipal Corporations and
arrange for their self employ-
ment.
6. NEW DELHI, Sept. 6—
Delhi Pradesh Congress
Committee president Shri
Ajay Maken said the garbage
generated in each area should
be treated at the local level
instead of dumping the
garbage generated in East
Delhi at Rani Khera or other
places. Shri Maken said there
should not be any major land-
fills in Delhi and he sought
the cooperation of Delhi
Chief Minister Shri Arvind
Kejriwal and Delhi BJP chief
Shri Manoj Tiwari, asking
them to rise above party poli-
tics, to make Delhi a “zero
landfill city”. Addressing
Congress workers at Rani
Khera, where thousands of
Congress workers, led by Shri
Ajay Maken expressed their
solidarity with the local peo-
ple who are protesting against
garbage from East Delhi
being dumped at Rani Khera,
Shri Maken said 9000 tonnes
of garbage is generated in
Delhi every day out of which
5600 tonnes are organic waste
which can be treated at the
local level to make composts.
He said he will meet the Lt.
Governor along with the peo-
ple of Rani Khera to find a
way out to make Delhi a
“zero landfill area”. Others
present at Rani Khera to
pledge support to the local
residents in their protest
against dumping of garbage
were district presidents Shri
Surender Kumar and Shri
Inderjit Singh, Shri Chattar
Singh, Dr Naresh Kumar, Shri
Naresh Lakhra, ex-MC Shri
Ajit Choudhary, Shri Anoop
Shokeen, Master Satbir
Kharab, Shri Vijay Dabas,
Devinder Lala and Satbir
Singh Netaji. Shri Maken said
the world over, the practice is
to segregate wastes at homes
before the organic waste is
treated at the local levels to
make composts, and the rest
of the waste can be used dif-
ferently, which can be applied
in Delhi.

Let's take a moment to thank whole Bengaluru
City Traffic police for helping Bengalureans in this
heavy rains Thank you many responsible citizens
tweeted on twitter .Heavy rains with thunderstorm
brought the city to its knees this evening. A number of
trees came down crashing while water gushed into the

MEGHALAYA BECOMES FOURTH STATE
TO IMPLEMENTANAND MARRIAGE ACT
New Delhi : Meghalaya has become fourth state of
the country to implement Anand Marriage Act in the state
and Bihar was completing the process to implement this
act in the state. Disclosing this is a statement here today,
the Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee
(DSGMC) General Secretary Mr. Manjinder Singh Sirsa
said he had taken up the issue of implementation of the act
with the Meghalaya government and was thankful to the
state Chief Minister Mr. Mukul Sangma for implementing
this act. He said that its implementation will enable the
Sikhs residing in the state to get their marriages registered
under the Anand Marriage Act. He said that the sikh com-
munity was facing huge problem without is implementa-
tion and persons travelling abroad had to face big embar-
rassment as being a sikh their marriages were not regis-
tered under the act.
10. TOKYO: North Korea said on
Monday it will make the United
States pay a heavy price if a proposal
Washington is backing to impose the
toughest sanctions ever on
Pyongyang is approved by the UN
Security Council this week.
The North's foreign ministry
issued a statement early Monday say-
ing it is watching the United States'
moves closely and threatened it is
"ready and willing" to respond with
measures of its own.
The United States has called for a
vote Monday, New York time, on new
UN sanctions against North Korea.
Last Tuesday, the US circulated a
draft resolution proposing the tough-
est-ever UN sanctions on North
Korea, including a ban on all oil and
natural gas exports to the country and
a freeze on all foreign financial assets
of the government and its leader, Kim
Jong Un.
Security Council diplomats, who
weren't authorized to speak publicly
because talks have been private, said
the US and China were still negotiat-
ing the text late Sunday.
Previous UN sanctions resolutions
have been negotiated between the
United States and China, and have
taken weeks or months. But the
Trump administration is demanding a
vote in six days.
"The US is trying to use the
DPRK's legitimate self-defensive
measures as an excuse to strangle and
completely suffocate it," the state-
ment said, using the acronym for
North Korea's formal name. "Since
the US is revealing its nature as a
blood-thirsty beast obsessed with the
wild dream of reversing the DPRK's
development of the state nuclear force
which has already reached the com-
pletion phase, there is no way that the
DPRK is going to wait and let the US
feast on it."
North Korea conducted its sixth
nuclear test a week ago and has been
launching ballistic missiles at a record
pace. Both are violations of UN reso-
lutions, but Pyongyang claims it must
carry them out to build nuclear deter-
rent against what it sees as US aggres-
sion. Undaunted by the international
criticism of its test, which Pyongyang
says was of a hydrogen bomb,
Pyongyang celebrated through the
weekend, with concerts and banquets
for the country's nuclear scientists and
engineers. Blocking textile exports
and cutting off the flow of oil from
China would potentially be crippling
measures.
North Korea gets nearly all of its
oil supply from China, with a much
smaller amount coming from Russia
or the open market. According to a
recent study by the Nautilus Institute
think tank, a massive cutback in the
flow of oil from China would defi-
nitely hurt the North Korean econo-
my, and especially average citizens.
But the report said the impact would
likely be blunted on the military,
which probably has enough fuel
stockpiled to continue normal opera-
tions for the immediate future.

North Korea warns of harsh response if new Sanctions Imposed
NEW YORK: While
the US contends with the
destruction caused by two
ferocious hurricanes in
three weeks, Americans
also are marking the
anniversary of one of the
nation's most scarring
days.
Thousands of 9/11 vic-
tims' relatives, survivors,
rescuers and others are
expected to gather on
Monday at the World
Trade Center to remember
the deadliest terror attack
on American soil.
Sixteen years later, the
quiet rhythms of com-
memoration have become
customs: a recitation of all
the names of the dead,
moments of silence and
tolling bells, and two pow-
erful light beams that
shine through the night.
Yet each ceremony also
takes on personal touches.
Over the years, some
name-readers have added
messages ranging from the
universal ("the things we
think separate us really
don't we're all part of this
one Earth") to the personal
("I love you and miss you.
Go Packers!"). "Thank
you, New York, for contin-
uing to honour the victims
of 9/11 and the privilege of
reading their names," Judy
Bram Murphy added last
year. She lost her husband,
Brian Joseph Murphy.
Nearly 3,000 people died
when hijacked planes
slammed into the trade
center, the Pentagon and a
field near Shanksville,
Pennsylvania, on
September 11, 2001, hurl-
ing America into a new
consciousness of the threat
of global terrorism.
President Donald
Trump, a native New
Yorker observing the
anniversary for the first
time as the nation's leader,
is scheduled to observe a
moment of silence at about
the time the first airplane
hit. The White House said
he is to be joined by first
lady Melania Trump.
He also planned to par-
ticipate in a 9/11 obser-
vance at the Pentagon.
Defence Secretary Jim
Mattis and Gen Joseph
Dunford, chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff, are
hosting a private obser-
vance for victims' relatives
there at 9.11 am today.
After the names are read at
that ceremony, there's a
public observance, with a
wreath-laying and
remarks. Vice President
Mike Pence and US
Secretary of the Interior
Ryan Zinke are scheduled
to deliver remarks at the
Flight 93 National
Memorial near
Shanksville. it is very
practical and easy to
understand and use which
is used for successfull car-
rier and happier It's on
the rural field where one of
the airliners crashed after
passengers and crew
fought to wrest control
away from the terrorists
who'd hijacked it and were
heading for Washington.
Construction continues at
the Shanksville memorial,
where ground was broken
Sunday for a 93-foot (28
meters) tall Tower of
Voices to honor the 33 pas-
sengers and seven crew
members who died.
16 years after 9/11, thousands expected at ground zero
BEIJING: The top diplomats
from China and Pakistan took
swipes at President Donald
Trump's newly unveiled
Afghanistan policy on Friday as
they called for new talks with the
Taliban to resolve the 16-year con-
flict. Chinese foreign minister
Wang Yi said Beijing stood firmly
behind its "ironclad friend"
Pakistan, even though "some
countries" did not give Islamabad
the credit it deserved in fighting
terrorism, a pointed reference to
the US Pakistani Foreign Minister
Khawaja Asif's first trip abroad to
Beijing this week appeared to
highlight how ties between the
two all-weather allies have grown
even closer while Pakistan's criti-
cal relationship with the US is dis-
integrating amid mutual recrimi-
nations and distrust. Wang and
Asif announced that China,
Pakistan and Afghanistan will
hold a new series of three-way
talks later this year in China to
push forward settlement negotia-
tions with the Taliban while the
US doubles down on its military
campaign. Trump infuriated
Pakistan+ last month when he
accused Islamabad of providing
extremists safe haven+ and threat-
ened to withhold military aid. He
further raised alarms in Pakistan
when he raised the prospect of
recruiting archrival India into the
US strategy in Afghanistan. US
officials said this week that $225
million in military aid for Pakistan
have been suspended while about
3,500 additional troops will head
to Afghanistan.

CHENNAI: The
Australian team is in India for
a limited-overs series with
high 'hopes'.
Skipper Steve Smith, who
met the media on Sunday,
hopes to keep a raging Virat
Kohli "quiet", hopes the wick-
ets on offer are as flat as they
were during the 2013 India-
Australia ODI series, hopes
his young batting unit "con-
tinues to learn" playing spin
better, hopes to forge a win-
ning combination with David
Saker, who will be in charge
of the team in the absence of
coach Darren Lehmann and
hopes it will be a series fought
in "good spirit."
While the likes of Aaron
Finch, Travis Head, James
Faulkner, Marcus Stoinis,
Nathan Coulter-Nile and
Adam Zampa - who all
arrived on Friday - decided to
have a hit in the nets at the
MA Chidambaram Stadium
on Sunday morning, the rest
of the Australian contingent
which had landed late on
Saturday took a day off from
practice.
As Smith & Co were fight-
ing tooth and nail against
Bangladesh in the latter's
backyard, Kohli's boys were
busy demolishing Sri Lanka
9-0.
Kohli was in prime form in
that series in Sri Lanka and
Smith is wary of his "danger-
ous" opposite number. "I'm
not too concerned about my
differences with Virat (both
personal records and batting
styles in ODIs). He has a phe-
nomenal record in ODIs (30
hundreds) and is obviously
going to be dangerous.
Hopefully we can keep him
quiet as much as possible. If
we do that, then hopefully that
can help us go a long way in
having some success on this
tour," said the 28-year-old,
who has eight hundreds in 98
ODIs.
Smith knows it isn't just
about Kohli. "We have been
following the India-Lanka
series in bits and pieces. India
are playing some really good
cricket and are an excellent
ODI side. It's a good chal-
lenge for us as it's always
tough playing India in India,"
he added. Even as the Indian
selection committee decided
to "rest" their two lead spin-
ners R Ashwin and Ravindra
Jadeja for the three ODIs,
Smith termed it a "strong
Indian side."
When asked if it was a sur-
prise for them to see an Indian
side minus Ashwin and
Jadeja, who have been sensa-
tional against the visitors in
the Test series earlier this
year, Smith said: "It's a com-
pletely different format to Test
cricket. Axar Patel has done
pretty well for them,
(Yuzvendra) Chahal is in the
squad, Kuldeep Yadav is a
good bowler too."
KOLKATA: The refur-
bished Salt Lake Stadium,
which will host the final of
the FIFA U-17 World Cup,
was on Sunday handed over
to the event's Local
Organising Committee.
Giving it a 10/10 rating,
LOC tournament director
Javier Ceppi said the
revamped stadium is at par
with any world-class venue
that has hosted a FIFA World
Cup final.
"If you ask me it looks like
a museum, be the entrance or
the inside. Or like the teams
said it looks the lobby of a
five-star hotel," Ceppi said,
thanking West Bengal Chief
Minister Mamata Banerjee for
getting the work done in two
and half years' time.
"You see and the stadium
looks nothing like it used to
before. That's because the sta-
dium needed to be fit to host a
World Cup final, the most
important football match to be
hosted in India's history."
"They (West Bengal gov-
ernment) took the challenge.
This stadium now can be
compared to other stadiums in
the world that have hosted a
FIFA World Cup final."
The revamp of the stadi-
um, formally known as
Vivekananda Yuva Bharati
Krirangan, which was taken
up on February 1, 2015, cost
the West Bengal government
more than Rs 100 crore.
Banerjee will formally
inaugurate the stadium from
Uttar Kanya, the branch
Secretariat of Government of
West Bengal in Siliguri, North
Bengal, on September 12.
Originally a 120,000
capacity stadium, the YBK is
now reduced to an official
66687 for the World Cup after
FIFA enforced a guideline fol-
lowing a study with the Sports
Grounds Safety Authority of
the UK. "It's not a single per-
son more. That's the capacity
of the stadium for a safe evac-
uation for every part and
every spectator of the stadium
within eight minutes," Ceppi
said. However, the stadium
can accommodate about
80000. The stadium is 98 per-
cent complete and Ceppi said
it's their responsibility to take
it to the next level.
"Now, we need the transi-
tion from a museum to a foot-
ball stadium to host the World
Cup. It's not major work but
just two or three things,"
Ceppi said. He, however,
refused to compare the YBK
with the other five venues
which will hold matches dur-
ing the October 6-28 tourna-
ment. "All six of them are like
our kids, it's impossible to
decide the best. I'm not being
politically correct, but if you
go to every single stadium in
country the amount of work
has gone is fantastic."

Gujarat Fortune Giants
rallied from 9-17 down to
hold on U.P. Yoddha in the
pulsating Vivo Pro Kabaddi
League Season 5 match at
Sonepat on Friday. Both the
teams finished with 30-30. It
was third tie for Gujarat
Fortune Giants in 13 matches.
With 46points they continue
to lead Zone A table. Yoddhas
dominated the first half and
looked to walk away with the
match when Rishank
Devadiga’s super raid in the
seventh minute left Gujarat in
tatters – 3-7. In the 10th
minute Gujarat Fortune
Giants trailed Yoddhas by
eight points – 9-17 – when all
players were sent to bench. It
seemed match was slipping
away from the Giants.
However, when all the seven
Giants re-entered after an all
out, they looked different
side. The Giants got hold of
dangerously looking raider
Rishank Devadiga to make 7-
13. And fortune changed for
the Giants. They looked con-
fident unit. Four minutes
from first half whistle Fazel
Atrachali grabbed raiding
Nitin Tomar to break the
backbone of Yoddhas raiding
unit. At the stroke of interval
Giants made it 16-18. In sec-
ond half Pawan Sherawat’
acrobatic raid helped Giants
take lead for the first time in
the match. It was a sea-saw
battle there on. In the dying
moments Abozar Mighani
grabbed Nitin Tomar to make
30-29 to set up a win. But
Mahendra Rajput caught in
do-or-die raid saw both the
teams ending with 30 points
each. “It was a good match
for us. Both defenders and
raiders played well.
Unfortunately, couple of mis-
takes in last five minutes
compelled us to settle for a
draw,” said Neer Gulia, coach
of Gujarat Fortune Giants.
Giants next face U Mumba in
Ranchi on September 15.
Bangladesh's
Shakib asks for
break from Tests
DHAKA: Bangladesh's
Shakib Al Hasan, the
world's leading all-rounder,
has requested a six-month
break from Test cricket
ahead of the upcoming tour
of South Africa, the coun-
try's board said on Monday.
Bangladesh are likely to
name their squad later
Monday for the South
Africa tour comprising two
Tests, three one-day interna-
tionals and two Twenty20
games, starting on
September 28. "Shakib has
handed a letter to the board,
seeking a break from Test
cricket," Bangladesh
Cricket Board spokesman
Jalal Yunus said. "He said
he will be available for
other formats during this
period but he needed this
break from Test cricket to
refresh his body.
"We haven't yet made
any decision regarding his
request. BCB president
(Nazmul Hasan) will make
the final decision."

Creating interactive experi-
ences is the key to hold con-
sumer’s attention in today’s
digital age. However, the best
of on-ground and digital cam-
paigns may not work if brand
managers, advertisers and mar-
keters use only the traditional
forms of media. To redefine the
customer touchpoints, it is
important to have access to an
array of new age solutions.
Bringing the perfect mix of tra-
ditional and modern marketing
concepts under one roof, Media
Expo is back for its 41st edition
in the nation’s capital. Held
from 22 – 24 September 2017 at
Pragati Maidan in New Delhi,
over 170 brands will present
campaign enhancing solutions
to create a lasting impact on
their audience. Among these are
industry’s biggest players
including Apsom Technologies,
Apollo Polyvinyl, Avery
Dennison, Britomatics,
Colourjet, Daksh Enterprises,
Fujifilm, Gogia Print-o-grafix,
HP Latex, JN Arora, Mimaki,
Negi Sign Systems, Sun-sign
Tec, Welni International and
many more.
Apart from the big industry
players, new companies contin-
ue to see Media Expo as a pre-
ferred platform to showcase
their solutions. First-time par-
ticipants at the fair Mr Rajiv
Manchanda, Managing
Director, Mac Media
Expositions shared: “We heard
a lot of positive reviews about
the show and felt it would be a
good platform for a new com-
pany like us to interact directly
with the key customers. It
would surely be a right medium
to display our skills, product
scopes and grow our brand
awareness.” The platform will
also stage international
exhibitor groups from China,
Korea, Russia and Taiwan
which occupy over 20% of the
exhibition space. Keeping inno-
vation at the forefront, many
companies will be launching
new products which will be of
special interest to the visitors.
Some of the highlights include:
New Delhi, 7 September:
The Society of Indian
Automobile Manufacturers
(SIAM), an industry body
representing India’s automo-
bile sector, held its 57th
Annual Convention today
where Union Minister of
Road Transport & Highways,
Mr Nitin Jairam Gadkari
called upon India’s automo-
bile industry to gear up to face
the competition heating up in
the international market.
Speaking at SIAM’s Annual
Convention titled “Building
the Nation, Responsibly”
Union Minister of Road
Transport & Highways, Mr
Nitin Jairam Gadkari said
Indian automotive industry
has done well despite facing
various regulatory hurdles
and environmental issues. Mr
Gadkari said the theme of the
convention: “Building the
Nation, Responsibly” gels
well with the Government of
India initiative “SANKALP
Se SIDDHI”. “I am proud to
say that the auto industry has
always been one among the
leading players in our nation
building, and that too respon-
sibly. When it comes to sus-
tainable and environment
friendly transportation, the
Indian auto industry took up
the challenge and agreed to go
through the pain of leapfrog-
ging towards better environ-
ment by accepting BS6 norms
from 1st April 2020,” Mr
Gadkari observed.
However, at the same time,
the industry also needs to
move towards Zero Emission
regime with electric vehicles,
he added. Although the minis-
ter was bullish on the size and
market of Indian auto industry
and directly linked it to
India’s GDP growth, he point-
ed out that as more vehicles
are coming on road, the gov-
ernment will have to increase
lanes of roads and highways
to meet the demand. He also
informed that the demand of
cars have increased in past
three years. “This is some-
thing big that the country can-
not handle in the existing
infrastructure alone. The
industry and the government
must come up with a diversi-
fied solution. We need to
bring in qualitative reforms in
the automobile sector and
expand the scope of rural
transportation while bringing
in newer technologies and
encourage electric vehicles,”
Gadkari asserted.

Mini is yet another step to provide an emission
free, green mode of safe intra city transportation
in the country. At Mahindra, we are aligned to
the Government’s vision
to become a 100% EV
nation by 2030. True to the
spirit of ‘Make-in-India’,
we shall be at the forefront
to lead this change along
with the Government.” At

sumer benefit scheme,

ranty, low down payment

ment, which is an industry first. All these bene-
fits to the customer will be available with select
finance options and will help customers to max-
imize their earnings. According to Veejay Ram
Nakra, Chief of Sales & Marketing,Automotive

which is a consumer need in the e-Rickshaw
segment. Further, with best-in-class product
quality, higher earning potential, 60 minutes fast
service guarantee and an attractive finance
option, the e-Alfa Mini is set to become the pre-
ferred choice of the buyers.”
Today being the last day for
filing GST returns for the
month of July made the day of
traders worst then a hell since
GST portal remain hanged
most of the time. In view of the
same, the Confederation of All
India Traders has demanded
Union Finance Minister Mr
Arun Jaitley to extend the date
of filing of returns to at least
15th September and in the
meantime has also demanded a
thourough technology audit of
the portal and ensure its normal
functioning . If this level of
technology failure is repeated,
the GST will prove to be a
nightmare not only for the
traders but even for the Govt
since Revenue generation is
largely dependent upon suc-
cessful operation of the portal-
said CAIT.
Taking a note of the seriousness
of the matter, the CAIT has
sought an immediate appoint-
ment with Mr JaitleY to apprise
him of the pain being suffered
by traders across Country with-
out any gain - said CAIT
National President Mr B C
Bhartia and Secretary General
Mr Praveen Khandelwal
expressing utter dismay over
the non responsive perform-
ance of the portal.
Both Mr Bhartia and Mr
Khandelwal informed that most
of the time the portal remained
in hang condition and traders
could not even able to log in.
Moreover, whenever it was in
operation it shows errors and
details of error are not visible.
Add to their woes, the portal is
demanding HSN code wise
details and traders dealing.
GST PORTAL FAILED - TRADERS FACING HELL OF PROBLEMS

Free fall in GDP
numbers structural
NEW DELHI: India's GDP
growth was expected to
decline in the first quarter of
the current fiscal, but the "free
fall" in the numbers shows
that the problem is more
structural than transient, says
a report.
India's economic growth
slipped to a three-year low of
5.7 per cent in April-June,
underscoring the disruptions
caused by uncertainty related
to the GST rollout amid slow-
down in manufacturing activi-
ties.
According to the report,
the negative impact of the
Goods and Services Tax
(GST) on growth has been
"majorly emphasised".
"Though there has been a
lot of talk about manufactur-
ing destocking ahead of GST
and its impact on GDP, a sig-
nificant destocking in both
consumer as well as invest-
ment intensive sectors was
already taking pace in 2016-
17," said SBI's research report
Ecowrap.
Gadkari urges India’s auto sector to gear up to meet global challenges
