1. New Delhi: The Government of India had taken the historic
decision to implement OROP in November, 2015. This fulfilled
the long standing demand of the Defence Forces personnel
after 42 years and benefited over 18 lakh ex-servicemen and
war widows.
In pursuance of the order issued on 07/11/2015, detailed
instructions alongwith OROP Tables have been issued to.
•The annual recurring financial implication on account of
implementation of OROP at the current rate will be approxi-
mately Rs. 7500 crore.
•The arrears from 01/07/2014 to 31/12/2015 would be approx-
imately Rs. 10,900 crore.
•86 percent of the total expenditure on account of OROP will
benefit the JCOs/ORs.
•Payment of arrears and revision of pension under OROP is
to be made by the Pension Disbursing Authorities in four
installments, except for family pensioners and pensioners in
receipt of gallantry awards who will be paid arrears in one
installment.
•The total increase in the Defence Budget for pensions is esti-
mated to go up from Rs. 54,000 crore (BE 2015-16) to around
Rs. 65,000 crore (proposed BE 2016-17), thereby increasing
the Defence Pension Outlay by about 20 percent.

New Delhi: The President
of India, Shri Pranab
Mukherjee has extended
his greetings and felicita-
tions to the Government
and people of the
Democratic Socialist
Republic of Sri Lanka on
the eve of the 68th
Anniversary of their
Independence (February
4, 2016).
In a message to His
Excellency Mr. Maithripala
Sirisena, the President of
the Democratic Socialist
Republic of Sri Lanka, the
President has said, “On
behalf of the Government,
the people of India and on
my own behalf, it gives me
immense pleasure to
extend warm felicitations
and best wishes to Your
Excellency and to the peo-
ple of the Democratic
Socialist Republic of Sri
Lanka on the occasion of
the 68th Anniversary of
your Independence.
The ties of friendship
between India and Sri
Lanka go back centuries
and have matured over
time to include all areas of
contemporary relevance. I
am confident that the
renewed vigour in the Sri
Lankan polity under your
leadership will not only
allow you to realize your
vision for Sri Lanka but
also strengthen the part-
nership between India and
Sri Lanka for the mutual
benefit of the people of our
two countries. I would like
to take this opportunity to
assure you that, as a close
friend and neighbour, we
support your vision for Sri
Lanka. Please accept,
Excellency, my best wish-
es for your good health
and personal well being as
well as for the continued
progress, prosperity and
happiness of the people of
Sri Lanka”.

New Delhi: The Union
Minister of State
(Independent Charge) for
Development of North
Eastern Region (DoNER),
MoS PMO, Personnel, Public
Grievances, Pensions,
Atomic Energy and Space, Dr
Jitendra Singh inaugurated
the formal India launching of
“School for Social
Entrepreneurs” (SSE).
In his inaugural address,
Union Minister of State
(Independent Charge) for
Development of North
Eastern Region (DoNER),
MoS PMO, Personnel, Public
Grievances, Pensions,
Atomic Energy and Space, Dr
Jitendra Singh stressed that
“Startups” with social entre-
preneurship have a wider
impact and that ideally, social
enterprises cannot be exclud-
ed from the startup ecosys-
tem. Referring to the “Startup
India, Standup India” plan
announced by Prime Minister
Shri Narendra Modi on 16th
of last month, Dr Jitendra
Singh said, a meaningful
startup initiative should prove
fruitful not only for its initia-
tors, but should also be
socially rewarding.
He said, social enterprises in
India are already engaged in
following the complex social
problems in diverse areas
including health, education,
energy, water and sanitation,
agriculture, etc. and the new
startup initiatives can further
supplement this process.
Hailing some of the incredible
provisions in Prime Minister’s
“Startup India” declaration, Dr
Jitendra Singh, in particular,
referred to the provision of
three months’ exit period dur-
ing which a youngster will
have the opportunity to
decide whether to go ahead
or to switch-over to some
other alternative option with-
out much liability. This, he
said, will not only increase
the risk taking capacity of the
startup initiative, but will also
give the youth the confidence
to persist with his initiatives
without giving up.

The Republic Day is celebrated in
India on 26th January every year.
The day marks the sovereignty of
the country, as on this day in 1950
the Constitution of India was
adopted. The grandeur of the
Republic Day of India is visible in
the grand parade that is held along
Rajpath, beginning from Raisina
Hill near the Rashtrapati Bhavan
(President’s Palace) and moving
on to Rajpath past India Gate and
proceeding to the Red Fort.
8 Key highlights of
this Republic Day
1.French president Francois
Hollande will be the chief guest.
2.French troops will be participat-
ing in the Republic Day parade.
3. India’s first indigenously devel-
oped aircraft carrier Vikrant and
submarine Kalvari will be dis-
played by the Navy tableaux.
4. The BSF camel contingent will
not be marching down the Rajpath
this year.
5. The paramilitary forces like
ITBP, CISF and SSB will be absent
from this year’s Republic Day
parade.
6. The Army dog squad will join
this year’s Republic Day parade
after 26 long years.
7. A women-only stunt contingent
will be demonstrating their motor-
cycle riding skills for the first time.
8. The first ever video of the Indian
national anthem will feature digni-
taries like Sachin Tendulkar,
Baichung Bhutia and Sania Mirza.
The country is all set to celebrate
its 67th Republic Day on Tuesday
with preparations for the ceremo-
nial parade in ‘Rajpath’ is almost
over. One of the biggest highlights
this year is that the President of
France Francois Hollande will be
attending the event as a chief
guest amidst unprecedented secu-
rity in the wake of the attack on
Pathankot air force base. For the
first time since 1950, a foreign
army contingent will march down
the Rajpath during the Republic
Day parade. The 35th Infantry
Regiment of 7th Armoured Brigade
has been practicing for the parade
after it participated in an eight-day
joint excercise of Indian and
French troops from 8 January.
Speeches by Eminent
Personalities of Nation President
Pranab Mukherjee’s address to
the state earlier than the 67th
Republic Day was marked by a
strongly-worded condemnation of
terrorist act, an in depth relation to
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s
pet initiatives and a pitch for eco-
nomic reforms. Quoting a verse by
Rabindranath Tagore, the
President aforementioned, “The
people modification is going on.
Youth have affected centre-stage
to require charge.”
Prime Minister- India is ready to
celebrate this 67th republic day
which is on this 26th January
2016.
PM Narendra Modi’s speech is
also part of an attraction. PM
Narendra Modi started some best
projects this year called “Make in
India” and “Startup India” are two
projects which will help peoples to
start and grow their business.
PM Narendra modi’s Make In India
mission getting nice response and
peoples are really started following
him. Many big companies came to
India this year and many big prom-
ised that they will start their proj-
ects in india and will give opportu-
nities to Indian youngsters to work
along with them.

The entire world is under
the grip of terrorism. It
hasn't spared a single
nation in the world.
Millions of innocent peo-
ple have lost their lives
to terrorism over the
years. India also doesn't
lag behind. India
remains vulnerable to
the threat of global ter-
rorism. Terrorism has
already dug its claws in
our nation. India has
been an easy and
favourite target for ter-
rorist activities over the
years. Even the year
2016 started off on a
horrific note as we
encountered yet another
terrorist attack.
On Jan 19th the Delhi
police arrested a sus-
pected terrorist from
Roorkee, Uttarakhand.
The suspect is said to
be associated with an
international terror
group. Three other men
have also been detained
by the police in
Uttarakhand. Reports
suggested, the terrorists
were planning to target
the KumbhMela in
Haridwar.
They were also planning
to target some vital
locations in the national
capital along with other
places in its vicinity. The
arrests were made just
a day after the police
had arrested a terrorist
belonging to Al-Queda
named Abu- al- sami
from Mewat, Haryana.
Sami has also provided
the police with certain
informations concerning
terror strikes around
Republic day.
All of these arrests were
made in the light of the
recent Pathankot
attack, which has shak-
en the entire nation. It
was a sudden attack
and people were taken
aback. It took a while
for people to register
the attack which took
place on 2nd Jan. The
vicious attack was made
on the Pathankot air
force station by a group
of six terrorists.
The Indian defence
forces retaliated and
made counter attack.
Heavy casualties were
reported with seven
Indian soldiers sacrific-
ing their lives. United
Jihad council claimed
the responsibility of
such a gutless attack.
Reports also suggested
that the strategic
attacks were an attempt
to hamper the peace
processes that are
meant to make a bal-
ance between India and
Pakistan. Maulana
Masood Azhar, chief of
Jaish-e- mohammed
and his brother Abdul
Rauf Asghar, are among
four persons identified
by the Indian
Intelligence agencies as
" handlers" behind the
attack. After the attack
and the subsequent
arrests made in Roorkee
and Mewat, the National
Capital Delhi was put on
high alert. The Delhi
Police received informa-
tion that two terrorists
from Jaish-e-
Mohammed had entered
the city. The security
was tightened across
the city and extra securi-
ty forces were called in
keeping the approaching
Republic day in mind.
This was not the first
time that a terror strike
of such an intensity have
taken place in the coun-
try. Innocent lives have
been lost in such
attacks but still there's
no stopping them.
Nations all over the
world are trying their
best to combat the ris-
ing terrorism. India itself
is fighting for a terror
free country, hence a
terror free world. But
attacks such as the
recent Pathankot attack,
questions about the lack
of clear command struc-
tures within the security
forces, long duration of
such attacks, high casu-
alties etc. It also ques-
tions whether we are
really prepared to fight
terrorism. Will there
ever be an end to the
terror of terrorism?

Special Coverage of Republic Day......
Delhi: Agriculture being the mainstay
of Indian people traditionally and cul-
turally, the Narendra Modi govern-
ment has been focusing on the agri-
culture front quite seriously.
Therefore the announcement of the
New Crop Insurance scheme on 13th
January, 2016 by the Government of
India has received kudos from all
quarters.
The government and the policy mak-
ers have always faced a few chal-
lenges vis-à-vis the task of ensuring
food security, higher agri growth and
adequate jobs in agri sector. There
has been always a long felt need to
bring together at one place all con-
ceptual issues, detailed institutional
framework and operational details
related to farmers’ welfare, risk man-
agement of farming community and
the crops during drought and floods
and other localized risk factors. The
broad policy on drought and natural
disasters management prepared by
the government has prescribed multi-
fold actions vis-à-vis the disaster mit-
igation plans, relief measures
required for providing succor to the
affected population and the need to
integrate these with long term objec-
tives. In other words, steps were
required to be taken on a war footing
with a well thought of and far-sighted
vision and action plans, both in short
term and long terms. The New Crop
Insurance scheme must be under-
stood from that perspective. This is
all the more relevant at a time when
the country is facing drought for the
second straight year due to poor
monsoon rains.
Under the new scheme that would
cost government Rs 8,000-9,000
crore annually, the farmers' premium
has been kept at a maximum of 2 per
cent for foodgrains and oilseeds, and
up to 5 per cent for horticulture and
cotton crops.
To be rolled out from the Kharif sea-
son this year, the much awaited
scheme - Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima
Yojana - was cleared at the Cabinet
meeting, headed by the Prime
Minister Narendra Modi.
The new scheme, to be executed
also by private insurance companies,
is seen as a significant step by policy
makers, farming community and
experts. The government’s move will
enhance insurance coverage to more
crop area to protect farmers from
vagaries of monsoon. Hence the
scheme is considered very timely
and also quite in tune with similar ini-
tiatives in some countries.
For Rabi crops, the farmer’s share
has been rightly fixed at 1.5 per cent
— against actual premiums of 8-10
per cent. For year-long cash crops
and horticulture crops, this has been
capped at 5 per cent. The PMFBY
will replace the existing two schemes
National Agricultural Insurance
Scheme as well as the Modified
NAIS. The official sources also clar-
ified that in terms of Service Tax, as
the new PMFBY is a replacement
scheme of NAIS / MNAIS, there will
be exemption from Service Tax liabil-
ity of all the services involved in the
implementation of the scheme. It is
estimated that the new scheme will
ensure about 75-80 per cent of sub-
sidy for the farmers in insurance pre-
mium. It is worth mentioning that the
government is already shelling out
around Rs 5000 crore annually aver-
age for the last five years for various
disaster relief measures even as the
government’s new move will now
mean a tentative expenditure of
about Rs 9000 crore. This will be
more helpful especially for farmers
as the risk factor would be looked
into. According to many, the 'Pradhan
Mantri Fasal BimaYojna' will also rid
farmers of the web of complex rules
of the earlier insurance schemes.
Within hours after official announce-
ment was made, the Prime Minister
Modi tweeted expressing confidence
that the new Crop Insurance Scheme
will bring about a major transforma-
tion in the lives of farmers. "This is a
historic day. I am confident that this
scheme, which is inspired by the
consideration of farmers' benefit, will
bring about a major transformation to
the lives of farmers," the Prime
Minister said in a series of tweets.
"Farmer brothers and sisters, at a
time when you are celebrating festi-
vals like Lohri, Pongal and Bihu, the
government has given you a gift in
the form of Prime Minister's Crop
Insurance Scheme," he had further
tweeted. The new scheme includes
successful aspects of the existing
schemes and "effectively addresses"
whatever was lacking in earlier
schemes."The scheme has the low-
est premium, it entails easy usage of
technology like mobile phone, quick
assessment of damage and dis-
bursement within a time frame," the
PM said. The government would
have to cough out Rs 8,800 crore
annually whereas the coverage
would be for a crop area of 194.40
million hectare.
New Crop Insurance scheme launch by PM
New Delhi: Dr Najma Heptulla, the Union Minister for
Minority Affairs addressed the All India Regional Editor’s
Conference. In her opening brief she said that the gov-
ernment is committed and focused on “Sabka Saath
;Sabka Vikas” through implementation of well knitted
interlinked initiatives. Dr. Najma said going by the
National priority, her Ministry has taken many new initia-
tives to strengthen the efforts towards economic empow-
erment of minorities through Skill Development and edu-
cation.
Elaborating on new initiatives undertaken during last 20
months, Dr. Najma Heptulla informed that her Ministry
formulated and launched a new scheme ‘Nai Manzil’ on
8th August, 2015. The scheme will benefit the minority
youths who do not have a formal school leaving certifi-
cate, i.e., those in the category of school-dropouts or
educated in the community education institutions like the
Madarsas, with a view to enabling them to seek better
employment in the organized sector and thus to equip
them for better lives. Scheme has been approved with
the cost of Rs. 650 Crore for five years. The World Bank
has approved the funding of US$ 50 million and recom-
mended the scheme to countries in Africa faced with sim-
ilar developmental challenges.
The Minister explained that skills and crafts practiced by
minority communities no more remained lucrative and
became unattractive rendering these craftsmen to look
for other means of livelihood.
All India Regional Editor’s Conference
addressed by Dr. Najma Heptulla

7. All India conference of
regional of editors today
took off at Jaipur with the
call to ensure more space
in media to reporting of
social sector issues.
Inaugurating the confer-
ence, Union Minister of
Women and Child
Development, Smt
Maneka Sanjay Gandhi
said that media is an
essential partner in devel-
opment process. Media
takes information about
government policies and
programmes to the mass-
es. It plays a critical role
in providing feedback
about the extent of imple-
mentation and impact of
government schemes. It
is also a force in shaping
policy making to a large
extent, she exerted.
H i g h l i g h t i n g
Government’s initiatives
during last 20 months to
energize every aspect of
national and social
machinery, Smt. Maneka
Gandhi said that the
Government agenda is
based on three guiding
principles. “One we have
to improve use of our nat-
ural and human
resources. Two we have
to create new opportuni-
ties for citizens and also
give them a choice of
opportunities. Three, we
have to increase the
quality of the life of citi-
zens”. She said that we
have seen the launch and
operation of the biggest
ever scheme of financial
inclusion in the form of
Jan Dhan Yojana. More
than 20 crores bank
accounts with a balance
of 30,000 corers have
been opened in the last
16-17 months. Under the
Mudra Scheme, over 2
crore small and micro
enterprises have been
extended loans worth 85
thousand crore rupees.
The Prime Minister
Suraksha Bima Yojana
and the Atal Pension
scheme have extended
insurance and pension
benefits to over 12.5
crore persons. The
Minister said that despite
the signals of slow down
at the global level, the
country has achieved a
high growth in foreign
direct investments. The
Make in India and Start
Up India initiatives of the
Prime Minister have actu-
ally unleashed entrepre-
neurial energy especially
amongst Indian youth.
Smt. Gandhi said the
most important achieve-
ment of the government
is that it has put in place
a very ambitious long
term and quantified target
of national development
in specific area. She said
another major aspect of
the government relates to
the thrust on maximum
governance. She
expressed confidence
that under the leadership
of Prime Minister, Shri
Narender Modi is on
course to attain its posi-
tion in the global space
which it so well deserves.
Addressing the confer-
ence Social Justice &
Empowerment and
Minority Affairs,
Government of Rajasthan
Shri Arun Chaturvedi,
said the State
Government has started
a number of programmes
for social sectors like
Mukhya Mantri Jal
Swavalamban Abhiyan,
expansion of primary edu-
cation by taking schools
up to each Panchayat,
ambious health care pro-
gramme. He said that
media can play an impor-
tant role to make benefici-
aries aware of these pro-
grammes. Welcoming the
editors participating in the
conference, Director
General, Press
Information Bureau, Shri
Frank Noronha said that
media are equal partners
in development process
and successes of com-
mon man in the social
sector desires more
space in its reporting. He
said “more than 70% of
the population lives in
rural areas, which pro-
vides the bulk readership
and viewership, hence
the role of the regional
and language news
papers assumes a very
great importance.” He
said the conference is a
sincere attempt to have a

New Delhi- Rescue compris-
es responsive operations
that usually involve the sav-
ing of life, or prevention of
injury during an incident or
dangerous situation.
Tools used might include
search and rescue dogs,
mounted search and rescue
horses, helicopters, the "jaws
of life", and other hydraulic-
cutting and spreading tools
used to extricate individuals
from wrecked vehicles.
Rescue operations are
sometimes supported by
special vehicles such as fire
department's or EMS heavy
rescue vehicle. Rescue oper-
ations require a high degree
of training and are performed
by rescue squads, either
independent or part of larger
organizations such as fire,
police, military, first aid, or
ambulance services. In the
U.S., they are usually staffed
by medically trained person-
nel as NFPA regulations
require it In former centuries
the word "rescue" had other
meanings: for example, there
is an old record of a country-
man living where
Wythenshaweis now, being
prosecuted in a local court for
"making rescue" of a pig
which had been seized as a
distress for non-payment of
money owed.
Additionally, 20 Rescue
Team (RTs), run by NGOs,
have been contracted to
move people sleeping in
open to nearest night shel-
ters. RTs patrol at night to
locate people sleeping in
open.
Present capacity in night
shelters is over 16,338, while
occupancy was 8,260 in 198
of the old night shelters in the
night of 17th Dec. 2015.
Average occupancy is close
to 50%. Live occupancy

New Delhi: The Vice President, Shri M.
Hamid Ansari said that the economic and geo-
political centre of gravity of the world has
again shifted towards the Asia-Pacific, with the
region showing unparalleled dynamism in
economic, political, security and demographic
terms.
He was addressing the Chulalongkorn
University, Bangkok, today on the themes of
culture, commerce and connectivity that linked
India, Thailand and the larger ASEAN region.
The Vice President said that ancient links of
civilization, culture and commerce between
India and Thailand give shared perceptions of
the evolving commercial and political environ-
ment in the region and his visit underscores
the importance India attaches to Thailand as
part of increasing engagement with the region.
He also said as the trade and investment
between India and Thailand remains modest,
there is a need to synergize efforts to enhance
and diversify trade. We need to encourage our
private sectors to make investments in infra-
structure and manufacturing sectors in the
each others’ country, he added.
The Vice President said that India places
ASEAN at the core of the ‘Act East Policy’ and
there is a special emphasis on India-ASEAN
cooperation in domestic agenda on infrastruc-
ture, manufacturing, trade, skills, urban
renewal, smart cities and Make in India pro-
grammes. Connectivity projects, cooperation
in Science and Technology development and
people-to-people exchanges are to be the
springboard for regional integration and co-
prosperity, he added.
On Culture, the Vice President said that the
spread of Buddhism from India is attributed to
Emperor Ashoka, who sent Buddhist emis-
saries to Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Thailand,
Cambodia and Vietnam. The Thai epic,
Ramakien is based on the Ramayana and in
modern times, many Indians migrated to
South East Asia constitute a vibrant communi-
ty and contributing actively to their respective
countries of adoption.
On Commerce, the Vice President said that
the India–ASEAN region has significantly out-
paced many other regions of the world. With
mutual trade and investment opportunities
arising from the realization of the ASEAN
Economic Community and India’s emphasis
on ‘Make in India’, ‘Digital India’, ‘Skill India’
and ‘Smart Cities’ initiatives, we are confident
that India-ASEAN commercial partnership will
flourish, he added. He further said that India
offers ASEAN the indigenously developed
GPS Aided Geo Augmented Navigation
(GAGAN) services, which provides advanced
navigation and location assistance and infor-
mation facilities.
On Connectivity, the Vice President said that
ASEAN continues to be a strategic priority for
India and efforts are being made to develop a
coherent strategy, particularly for linking
ASEAN with North East India. This is reflected
in the India-Myanmar-Thailand Motor Vehicles
Agreement and ASEAN-India Maritime
Transport Cooperation Agreement. ASEAN-
India Civil Aviation Task Force is expected to
oversee optimization of air connectivity, he
added. The Vice President said that India is
ready to meet the expectations of our friends
in the region and play a more pro-active role in
the processes leading to the ASEAN
Community.
