Samata Party regrets ceasefire
withdrawal HYDERABAD, Aug 9: Samata Party president Jaya Jaitley today regretted the withdrawal of 15-day ceasefire in Jammu and Kashmir by Hizbul Mujahideen and accused Islamabad of sabotaging the peace process. It was unfortunate that India’s peace initiative should have such an ending, she told reporters here. Attacking Congress for stalling Parliament proceedings on the killings of Amarnath pilgrims in Kashmir, Jaitley said "Congress behaviour in the house was unbecoming of a main opposition party". Taking objection to the reported remarks of Congress president Sonia Gandhi on the all-party visit to the site of the incident, she said, "the purpose of the visit was to get a first hand account of the situation which we got". Jaitley, who was here to address her party functionaries, attributed the growth of terrorism to increasing unemployment and lack of opportunities to youth. On match-fixing controversy, she said, "while the guilty should be punished the entire team should not be blamed for the scandal". "The issue has been rather blown out of proportion by media," she added. On her party stand on power tariff increase in Andhra Pradesh, Jaitley said, "the hike should have been in a phased manner instead of a steep rise in one stroke". (PTI) |

Kashmiris fed up from gun culture, want peace: CM Excelsior Correspondent Srinagar, Aug 9: The Chief Minister, Dr Farooq Abdullah has asked the security forces to remain more vigilant against the machinations of our enemy and guard the borders with greater dedication and zeal. Addressing an Attestation Parade of 285 BSF recruits at BSF Training Centre Humhama, near here, this morning, the Chief Minister asked BSF personnel to take due care of the civilian population while performing their professional duties and try to gain their confidence by providing them all possible assistance. He said the BSF has all along helped the civilians particularly living in far flung and rural areas and they should continue such goodwill work. Dr. Abdullah said the majority of the people of Kashmir are, no doubt muslims but they are not Pakistanis or anti-nationals. They are fed up from the gun culture and are yearning for peace, he added. The Chief Minister said we are fighting the proxy war for the last 11 years in which bombs and grenades are thrown by militants under the cover on security forces as well as civilians. People living in villages are particularly being harassed by these militants. He said we were thinking that this war will come to an end soon as we had reciprocated positively to Hizbul Mujahideen’s cease-fire announcement and were engaged in talks. But Pakistan who is behind the militancy in the State, did not want peace in Kashmir which they want to annex. This will not be allowed he said adding that Kashmir has remained part of India and will continue to remain so. Dr. Abdullah hoped that peace will dawn in this part of the world as India wants peace and we are working for it. He said the Prime Minister, Mr. Atal Behari Vajpayee had gone to Lahore early last year to achieve lasting peace in the region but Pakistan scuttled these efforts by sending intruders in Kargil last year. He asked security forces to foil the nefarious designs of our enemy who is hell bent to create trouble and help the country to come out of the difficult period presently faced by it. Earlier, the Chief Minister took the salute at the impressive parade and inspected the guard of honour. He also presented medals to six recruits for their best performance in physical and academic activities. Out of 285 recruits, 19 belong to J&K State. These included 7 recruits who were earlier misguided and had joined militant groups but subsequently surrendered before the security forces and preferred to serve in BSF. On his arrival, at the venue, the Inspector General, BSF, Mr. Vijay Kumar welcomed the Chief Minister. |

Chancellor’s
intervention sought Excelsior Correspondent JAMMU, Aug 9: The Part-III students against whom the ‘unfairmeans’ cases have been registered sought early decision by the University of Jammu ‘either against or in their favour’. They alleged that the University is spoiling our career by prolonging the decision of the 67 students against whom the cases were registered by the super flying squad of the University in one of the centres at M A Stadium, stated the aggrieved students, who today visited the EXCELSIOR to tell their tale of woes. They said that in view of the ‘insufficient’ proofs against these students, the University has failed to take the decision even after the declaration of the BA\BSc\BCom Part third results on July 25. A letter issued by the University to these students before the declaration of the result on July 15 said, "You have copied in question No. 3 from a Photostat material smuggled by you in the examination hall". And these students were asked to report before the committee constituted for this purpose. Whereas, the affected students said that none of the student was found copying by the members of the squad on that day. The cases were registered only on the basis of a photostat copy of the solved question outside the hall. They further added that on the same day (English-B paper), the flying squad members had a heated exchange of words with the Principal of the College and to settle the personal score, they have now made the students a party. However, the students admitted that they were called by the competent authority constituted for this purpose. But, they refused to face the committee one by one as this was the dispute to be settled for all. When asked why they refused to face the committee one by one, they said, "the University is adopting divide and rule policy, which we would not allow them to do". Earlier, the sub-committee had received the written reply from the students with regard to the allegations of mass copying. But, the committee when found similar replies from all the students, it handed over the case to competent authority. Meanwhile, the students have appealed the Chancellor of the University, the Governor, Mr Girish Chander Sexana to intervene personally in the matter and ascertain the facts, so that aggrieved students may not suffer any more. In a separate handout issued here today, the Secretary, Students Cultural Council, Mr Virinder Singh Babu has criticised the dilly dallying attitude of the concerned committee and urged the members to take the necessary decision without wasting further time. He added that some of the students have to apply for the Post Graduate courses and as also for the jobs, which they may fail to do in view of the delay. When contacted the chairman of the competent authority, Prof A N Sadhu said that the the committee authority held its meeting yesterday and examined every thing. The members remained there for three consecutive hours waiting for the students to come and plead their case, but none of them turned up individually. They were adamant to come in groups instead of one by one. So, to allow the students in groups is against the statues of the University. And ‘we cannot allow them to flout the JU norms". |

Shah regrets for break in talks on Kashmir Excelsior Correspondent SRINAGAR, Aug 9: Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Freedom Party president Shabir Ahmad Shah has suggested the Central leadership to check the traditional habit of issuing what he said contradictory statements vis-a-vis Kashmir conflict. Addressing a meeting of the party workers, Shah regretted that the talks between India and Hizbul Mujahideen failed only due to the "rigid" behaviour of the Centre for not holding tripartite talks on vexed Kashmir issue. He said that no one can ignore any of the three parties— viz India, Pakistan and people of Kashmir while trying to find a solution to the Kashmir conflict. He termed it most unfortunate on part of the Indian Government not to allow Pakistan to join the parleys as since partition, Pakistan continues to be a party to this issue and it was only in this context that both the nations fought three bloody wars on Kashmir. Shah was, however, hopeful that there was still chance for the broken peace process to resume if India shunned the rigid attitude. The peaceful solution to Kashmir conflict is not blocked, he asserted. |

JKNP asks Centre to curb Pak sponsored militancy Excelsior Correspondent JAMMU, Aug 9: Jammu and Kashmir Nationalist Front has asked the Central Government to curb Pak sponsored terrorism in the State with iron hand, before any dialogue with the militant outfits in Indian part of J&K can prove fruitful. In a statement issued here today Mr Yash Bhasin, Co-Convenor of JNKF has regretted that the Union Government jumped to the declaration of conditional ceasefire announce on July 24 by Hizbul Mujahideen, a pro Pak terrorist outfit with its headquarter in that country. The Central Government spread red carpet for the Hizb terrorists who have waged an armed war on the country and indulged in death and destruction killing thousands of innocents and causing untold miseries to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. The conditional ceasefire and offer of tripartite talks was a trap laid by Pakistan for India to put it in wrong in the international sphere as also to create confusion within our country and to demoralize the scurity forces. The Gover handling of entire episode carried a wrong mesage of India's desperation to broker peace even at the cost of country's honour and prestige. The Hizb has been working in close proximity with ISI and Government of Pakistan and hence a cautious approach to their overtures was needed. Instead the Government of India betrayed confused appraoch by issuing contradictory statements, thus conveying divergent messages. Instead of betraying desperation to talk to the terrorists and secessionists, the Central Government should take unequivocal stand about having no truck with terrorists until they eschew violence and commit themselves to be part of Indian mainstream and subscribe to Indian constitution. In its place the Union Government should hold parleys with the people at large in all the three regions of the State, belonging of all communities and all sections of society about future political setup of the State to fulfil the urges and aspirations of all the three regions and sub regions in heterogeneous State, Mr Bhasin has said. The need of the hour is to isolate the terrorists and secessionists and win the confidence of common people through all possible means, Mr Bhasin added. |
