The Centre told the Supreme Court that states are misusing a 2006 judgment on police reforms related to fixing tenure of Directors General of Police. The judgment mandated a two-year fixed tenure for DGPs and separation of investigation and law and order wings, but most states have not complied. The Centre said states appoint officers close to retirement to give them additional service. The petitioner's lawyer objected, saying the Centre wants to stall reforms.
1. NEW DELHI: Seeking
modification of an 11-year-old
judgment on police reforms,
the Centre told the Supreme
Court on Monday that states
were misusing the SC
direction to give two-year
tenures to directors general of
police and were appointing
officers nearing retirement to
the posts to give them two
additional years in service.
The SC, in its 2006
judgment in Prakash Singh
case, had ordered the Centre
and states to implement
reforms in the police structure,
including fixed tenure to
police chiefs and separation of
investigating wing from those
tasked with maintaining law
and order. However, most
states have not implemented
the reforms as directed by the
SC, leading to filing of three
contempt petitions by Singh's
counsel Prashant Bhushan.
Attorney general K K
Venugopal told a bench of
Chief Justice Dipak Misra and
Justices A M Khanwilkar and
D Y Chandrachud that the
modus operandi adopted by
states on the basis of the
Prakash Singh judgment was
interfering with the directive
issued in another case relating
to police reforms. Bhushan
objected to it and said the
other judgment in T S
RSubramaniam's case did not
deal with police reforms at all
and that it was a ploy by the
Centre to stall police reforms
as the SC had already
dismissed petitions seeking
review of the 2006 judgment.

The Prime Minister, Shri
Narendra Modi, today held a
Town Hall session with
students on subjects related to
examinations. He took
questions from students at the
event venue in Talkatora
Stadium in New Delhi.
Students also asked him
questions through various
television news channels, the
Narendra Modi Mobile App,
and the MyGov platform.
Beginning the
conversation, the Prime
Minister said that he had come
to the Town Hall session as a
friend of the students, and their
parents and family. He said
that he was speaking to as
many as 10 crore people across
the country, through various
platforms. He acknowledged
his own teachers, who had
instilled in him the values that
enable him to keep the student
in him alive till today. He
exhorted everyone to keep the
student alive in them. In the
course of the event which
lasted about two hours, the
Prime Minister took questions
on a range of subjects,
including nervousness,
anxiety, concentration, peer
pressure, parents’
expectations, and the role of
teachers. His answers were
embellished with wit, humour
and a number of different
illustrative examples. He
quoted Swami Vivekananda to
invoke the importance of self-
confidence, to deal with
examination stress and anxiety.
He gave the example of the
Canadian snowboarder Mark
McMorris, who won a bronze
medal in the ongoing Winter
Olympic Games, just eleven
months after suffering a life
threatening injury. On the
subject of concentration, the
Prime Minister recalled the
great cricketer Sachin
Tendulkar’s advice on the
radio programme Mann Ki
Baat. Tendulkar had said that
he only focuses on the ball that
he is playing at present, and
does not worry about the past
or future. The Prime Minister
also said that Yoga can help in
improving concentration. On
the subject of peer pressure,
the Prime Minister spoke of
the importance of
“Anuspardha” (competing
with oneself), rather than
“Pratispardha” (competing
with others). He said one
should only try to do better
than what one had achieved
earlier. Noting that every
parent sacrifices for his or her
child, the Prime Minister urged
parents not to make the
achievements of their child a
matter of social prestige. He
said every child is blessed with
unique talents.

New Delhi. MarcaTel, a
division of LaMarca
Knowledge and Services Pvt.
Ltd, partnered with BlueTown
Denmark (working in the field
of WiFi technology) to pro-
vide complete end-to-end
solution for WiFi data connec-
tivity across the country. The
company today announced its
ambitious marketing plans for
ushering in a new era of rural
connectivity in Southern and
Northern Indian states.
Detailing out the market sce-
nario Mr.Narayanan
Rajagopalan, Group
President, MarcaTel said,
“Revenue models such as a
Wi-Fi provider striking rev-
enue-share agreements with
venue owners is a popular and
proven business model.
However, a huge gap exists
between India and global
average as additional 800,000
hotspots need to be deployed
to match the current global
average of one public Wi-Fi
hotspot per 150 people. Most
telecom companies have not
ventured into community Wi-
Fi networks or urban location-
aware services owing to
numerous challenges such as
public body clearances, net-
work deployment logistics,
significant marketing budgets,
distribution channel set-up to
reach the end consumer and
disconnected value. What is
distinct about WiFi hotspots is
that it is easy to set up along
with a rapidly growing
Smartphone user base at high-
er speed esp. in area where the
population does not have an
Internet connection.”
Speaking on the model of
MarcaTel, Mr. Narayanan
elaborated, “Clearly driven by
Digital India, Skill India mis-
sion of Government of India,
we intend to be a catalyst in
ushering in a new rural India
with makes them self-reliant.
The rationale of setting up
Marcatel is primarily based on
three key pillars: Offering
Employment, Empowering
the not-so-connected con-
sumers in rural India and
make them budding entrepre-
neurs’in the digital space.To
this end, we have a sound
backing of our partner with
Bluetown India who will pro-
vide complete end-to-end
solution for WiFi data connec-
tivity across the country. Our
objective is to create WiFi
hotspots by installing public
WiFi towers which have range
of about 1.5 kms.”

The Karnataka Congress
on Sunday suspended
Bengaluru District Youth
Congress General Secretary,
Mohammed Haris Nalapad
from the party, after reports
emerged that he had assaulted
a man at a restaurant,
Karnataka Pradesh Congress
Committee chief G
Parameshwara on Sunday told
reporters that Nalapad has
been suspended from the
party for six years.
The police registered a
First Information Report on
Sunday against Mohammed
Nalapad Haris , the son of
Congress MLA NA Haris, and
10 others for allegedly attack-
ing a youth at a restaurant in
Bengaluru’s UB City mall.
According to the com-
plainant, the incident occurred
on Saturday night. “My friend
Vidvat had broken his leg four
weeks ago and I had decided
to take him out for dinner,”
complainant Praveen
Venkatachalaiah told media
persons that At around 10 pm,
Mohammed Haris Nalapad
walked into the cafe. Vidvat
had stretched his leg out
because he couldn’t move it
and Nalapad had a problem
with it.He further alleged that
the Congress leader got angry
and asked Vidvat to apologise
for stretching his leg out.
When Vidvat refused to apol-
ogise, a verbal argument
ensued between the two, he
added. Venkatachalaiah
alleged that Nalapad and his
supporters soon started beat-
ing up Vidvat. “They punched
his face, hit him on the chest
and also on his head. They
broke his nose. They attacked
him with bottles until Vidvat
fell to the floor unconscious,”
he claimed.After the victim
was taken to Mallya Hospital,
where he is currently under-
going treatment, Nalapad and
his supporters arrived at the
hospital to threaten Vidvat
against filing a complaint he
added. The accused have been
booked under relevant
charges of the Indian Penal
Code, including for wrongful
restraint, criminal intimida-
tion, unlawful assembly, riot-
ing and intentional insult with
intent to provoke breach of
peace. No arrest in the case
has been made yet, the police
said in the morning. Chief
Minister Siddaramaiah on
Sunday tweeted and in his
tweet he said offenders will be
punished “regardless of who
they are”. The Bengaluru
Police will take action as per
law and bring the guilty to
book, he added. B S
Yeddyurappa, BJP state presi-
dent, too took on twitter and
said that I am appalled at &
strongly condemn the ghastly
attack by MLA NA Harris son
on innocent Vidwath.
@CPBlr Police must arrest
the culprit & his goons to
restore public confidence in
rule of law. Congress MLA
must counsel his absconding
son to surrender.Congress
politicians & their cronies
have created a fear psyche
among common people. They
have tacit protection of State
government. Serious crisis of
law & order in Karnataka. It's
time to act & free our State
from goonda raj.

For the love of art, nine-
teen year old Sen adventur-
ously voyaged to Paris in
1973 with only $8 in his
pocket. While studying at
Ecole des Beaux Arts, Paris,
he mastered the European,
particularly French, flair of
art. Western European artistic
movements influenced Sen to
structure his own ideology of
Gesturism Art. He defines
Gesturism Art as a celebra-
tion of the limitless gestures
of all living beings in all
stages of life from birth to
death. “When you were born,
you had to cry to prove that
you are a normal baby. (That
was your first gesture)… and
until your death, you will give
so many gestures. I try to cap-
ture them. Any living element
will have multiple composi-
tions of the gesture… and
they will be different for each
person,” he says. In Franco-
Indian artist's Gesturism
paintings, profusion of colour
is always present. The inclu-
siveness trait is embedded in
Indian culture which defines
no dogma of good and bad.
Colour is the central theme
that drives everyone in India,
from poor to rich, to always
be bright and dazzling.
Gesturism art and désordre
have some raw effect of
India's ancient culture which
juxtaposes the well structured
Western thinking on art. So
the legitimacy of Sen's
colours has a relevance to his
Indian origin, even as he is a
French National today. He
drives the Indian cornucopia
of colours with French inspi-
ration. You may say
Gesturism Art establishes
Sen's palette of irreverent
Indian colours. His paintings
witness a relentless pursuit of
truth, a truth that springs from
the universals of light, color,
gestures and matter that he
plays with. One will initially
see a riot of colours in Sen's
paintings which appear to
have multiple abstract forms.
This inspires them to go in-
depth into the artwork and
slowly discover hidden figu-
rative forms that describe the
theme of his painting. His
colorful brush strokes invite
you to journey into his paint-
ing to addictively pursue this
discovery. In effect,
Sengupta’s paintings are
vividly colorful and dense
with layers upon layers of
strokes. The subjects aren’t
well defined, but rather seem
to move around on the can-
vas.
Since the inception of his
artistic search, the gesture is
to Sen an instrument that
descrambles an earlier world.
What cannot be translated
into words he makes manifest
through his gestures. So his
paintings become the very
expression of his inner life
where he intimates the ges-
ture with a bare rigor that is
devoid of any superficiality.
Shombit Sengupta, mainly
works with two subjects —
women and nature. He
strongly believes in creating a
society where women are lib-
erated hence his portrayal of
women reflects that. Sen is
inspired by nature because of
its breathtaking beauty and its
ability to change.
Sen’s Gesturism Art with
painting and désordre, a total-
ly new art currentClement
Greenberg, the single most
influential art critic in the
20th century had said, “All
profoundly original work
looks ugly at first.”
Originality is an essential
ingredient in art, which
results from the power of
imagination. Imagination
adds uniqueness to art and
gives it the power to arrest
everyone's eyes.
Sen has established an art
genre:
SEN Shombit, a painter
inspired by French aesthetics
and Indian colours has creat-
ed Gesturism Art, a new art
current that has paintings and
“désordre” installation works
of art. A renowned French
artist of Indian origin, Sen has
participated in exhibitions in
Carrousal du Louvre in Paris,
the 19th century artists’ vil-
lage of Barbizon, Venice,
Milan, and Tokyo. French,
Italian and Finnish art critics
and magazines have already
recognized and acknowl-
edged Gesturism Art as a
totally new unpublished art
current. Gesturism Art is a
creative celebration of the
limitless gestures of all living
beings from birth to death. Its
manifesto comprises of 6 fac-
