Tawang reinforce friendly relation with Army
TAWANG, Dec 8: Tawang, one of the most happening places in the state is in a festive
mood again with two days long Maitry Diwas -
Despite of chilling cold a mammoth crowd assembled to participate in the celebration which showcased unparallel bond between the Defence forces and the civil population. Apart from the different cuisines presented by the Army, the people were more keen in the defence might which was displayed by the Army in the festival. This gave sufficient reasons to the people to repose their faith on ever vigilant sentinels of our motherland. The civil administration was not behind too. All the departments in the district came forward with their exhibition stalls to educate the people of different plan, policy and achievement of the government.
In his inaugural address Khandu said "the Maitry Diwas attracts special attention in this strategically located and sensitive border district of Tawang. The festival speaks in volumes of the brilliant relation existing between the Army, local administration and the civil population". The type of cordial relation and mutual helping gestures prevailing in Tawang is seen no where else in the country, the chief minister claimed.
Highlighting the supreme sacrifice made by the Indian Army in this region, Khandu expressed his willingness to extend all possible helps to the Army. Construction of a public convenience both for use of civilians and Army at historic Jaswant Garh was among few of his commitment to the Army. Appreciating the noble service rendered by the Army in the service of ailing humanity through free medical camps in remote villages, the chief minister suggested the Army units to adopt villages on regular basis for the sake of the continuity of medical care to the poor villagers.
Lamenting over poor road conditions in Tawang the chief minister requested the BRO to adopt corrective measures in order to boost tourism in the area.
In his address Lt. General Parnaik expressed his happiness over the help being extended by the locals to the Army in border areas. "We need to dream of a self reliant, self sufficient and dignified Arunachal for which we need to join hands" the Lt. General emphatically said.
Lumla MLA Jambey Tashi in his welcome address briefed the gathering about the significance of the festival. Tawang MLA Tsewang Dhondhup believed that such event would showcase the rich culture of the district and fine relation between Army and the civil society.
The local youths under the aegis of YUVA Arunachal with its Secretary General Tsetan Chombay had their share of participation in coordinating the entire event.
Extravagant cultural displays by school children, Army, traditional cultural troupes from various villages in the district were other highlights of the day. (PRO to CM)

DNGC initiates damage control measures
ITANAGAR, Dec 8: Dera Natung Government College is on damage control mode. After absurd violence last month, an action committee of consisting at least 10 senior students as members, irrespective of districts affiliation would be constituted to oversee functioning of the hostels. This committee shall coordinate and cooperate with hostel wardens and the principal in executing the rules and regulations of the hostel.
This was taken at a meeting of students, teachers and college administration which was held on Nov 30. It was decided that group clashes or groupism among the boarders of the hostel shall not be tolerated in any way. Individual quarrel shall be taken as an individual case and an appropriate action be taken by the college authorities in accordance to the rules and regulation of the hostel which shall be framed by the authority of the institution and be executed by the hostel warden and coordination committee.
If at all any untoward situation arises in the hostel, no organization or group shall interfere in any way, it further decided.
The authority of the college is the only authority to punish the violators of rules and regulations. The hostel wardens and the coordination committee shall cooperate with the authority in such a situation. No outside agency like students` union groups in the name of district or area shall interfere in any way in the event of any disciplinary being initiated against the wrong doers or a violator of rules and regulations. Under any circumstances, students (boarders) shall not be allowed to move out of the hostels in groups to participate in any disputes outside the college.
Tongam Rina
The shameful incident at Dera Natung Govt College last month shocked the people of state. Most of us were left horrified that something like this could happen in a state where people are proud of diverse culture.
Many of us were too stunned to react. How could one possibly explain that some boys did not agree on certain issues and the best thing to sort out the discord was to give it a communal colour and go on a rampage?
To complete the picture, people from outside the campus disguised as college students took active part. They were instrumental in damaging the hostel, bus and the library.
How could something as ugly as this happen in a college in Capital Region? This is beyond understanding and no amount of logic justifies this kind of horrendous action.
Colleges have often been the battleground, more so during elections in Arunachal. Instead of teaching us a lesson or two on how to take our state forward, these institutions have often closed down for some time, because of communal undercurrents.
The fight for supremacy never led anyone anywhere and it will never lead to anything good either. The younger generation must understand this fact. Our trust in them to lead us to the next level should not be breached at any cost. They need to be more responsible towards themselves and the state. Everything else comes later.
On the other hand, as teachers, parents and elders, did we fail our youngsters in any way. Are we really taking them in the right path? Are we capable of saying no to such acts and telling them that such rotten acts shall not be tolerated? Are we capable of meting out punishments or show them the remedial steps?
As your truly search for answers, one thing comes to mind. Today we have organisations, that represents tribal groups or at least claim to be the spokesperson. Though these organisations assert to be representatives of tribes, yours truly is not really convinced about their ideology, barring few exceptions. Most of these organisations are either pushing their own agendas, which is not necessarily good for the collective good of the state or are used as launch pad to further careers in politics and other offices of profit. We choose to play along unmindful of their hidden agendas.
Instead of well-
Even as she write this, your truly is not discouraged. Of the three thousand odd students in DNGC, there was handful of them who tried to have their way.
There are more of them out there who celebrate their diversity and almost peaceful coexistence. They would continue to add more colour to Melting Pot called Arunachal.

Lower Dibang Valley ready to tap tourism industry
ROING, Dec 8: The first ever District Level Tourism Development Committee (DLTDC) meeting of Lower Dibang Valley District was held in office chamber of Deputy Commissioner of the district here today.
Y W Ringu, DC cum Chairman DLTDC of the district has called upon the tourism officials to gear up with the need of the hour as district has got vast tourism potentials. She also asked them to submit monthly report of domestic and foreign tourist visiting the district and take up new schemes under Rural and Eco tourism based on heritage, culture and nature for maximum inflow of tourist in the district.
Laeta Umbrey, MLA Roing participating in the meeting as a representative of Registered Tour Operator of the district has called for developing proper strategy to attract more domestic and foreign tourist in the district. Citing that the shortage of proper accommodation and sub standard lodging facilities available for the tourist are the main drawbacks that deter tourist inflow in the district. As the tour operators of the district solely depend on the govt. for tourist accommodation, he requested the authority concern to make the defunct Tourist Lodge at Sally Lake, 3km from Roing functional and also to improve the condition of Coffee House and Forest IB at Mayudia for tourist lodge. He also called upon the tourism officials to conduct tourism awareness campaign in the district so that the common masses, tourist guide, hoteliers and taxi driver become friendly and cordial in dealing with the tourist. Saying that it is the memory and behavior of the local people that the tourists carry back with them, Umbrey called for showing more hospitality to the visitors which in turn will benefit us economically as tourism is the fastest growing industry in the world with maximum employment generation, he said.
Er M K Debariyal, EE (WRD) informed the house that a Tourist Complex at Baro Golai, at around 69km from Roing near Mayudia Pass are under construction with a Multipurpose Hall and Four Cottages. Staging Hut along with Meseum at Yapgo village, Dambuk and Tourist Lodge at Jia village near Hot Spring are also under construction.

Not exactly a matter of Khusi Khusi

Dear Editor,
This is in apropos to the view expressed by Miss Vanessa Borang , regarding her views on the rejected candidates, which in her view shouldn't be entertained by the APPSC.
Here I would like to grasp the attention of the genuine readers of your daily column
that one shouldn't be too harsh without in-
If one genuinely go through the instruction provided with the OMR Form, one will realize that there is no specific and proper direction that the Pass port size Photo that we paste in the Form should be self attested. The Column 16 of the OMR Form and Instruction says “paste recent Pass Photo 4 cm x 5 cm".
If one carefully go through advertisement published in Arunachal times , one will realize that the commission is asking 2 self attested extra Photos which should be included with the OMR Form. So, here also there was no specific direction for self attestation.
Here in response to Borang's divine view that " Silly Mistakes From Graduate and Educated Person", I would like to request her to give a brief thought that how come 1735 graduate could commit such silly mistakes. Here I also would like to request the scrutiny and screening committee that if they had meant to be so strict, they should also go through the instruction and advertisement genuinely. And if possible request the commission to make proper and specific instruction for the same. We have also seen that the district code which is given in the Advertisement and OMR form are different.
So, Why Miss Vanessa is overlooking the commission's error. I agree that " no individual has the right to the challenge the integrity of the commission and impose their decisions for their own benefits. But at the same time I want her to be aware of the fact that every individual has the right to demand for the redressal of grievances. Talking about the character of Arunachal Pradesh she proudly says " it’s been confirmed that Arunachal is a land of “kushi kushi"
Wow! Here I am sad to say that she reinforced the saying that " Arunachal Pradesh is a land of kushi marji", where every citizen expresses their view through the esteemed media without proper knowledge.
She says this is "the mother of all exams" which every graduate citizen look up to. Then she must be aware that the disqualified or the rejected, as she says, 1735 candidates are frustrated and desperate because their rights to sit in “the mother of all the exams” have been curtailed for no mistakes of theirs. So in such situation, instead of healing the wound of her brothers and sisters, she’s spiting salt on their raw wound, which is very sad.
Therefore, my kind appeal to the responsible citizen is that before making such provocative views, one must go deep into the matters.
Yours,
Mepe Ete,

Dear Editor,
This is response to Vanessa Borang’s letter regarding disqualification of candidates. We had strictly followed the instruction leaflets and OMR sheet issued by authority concern. We did it strictly as per the direction.
In information brochure leaflet it was not mentioned about items No. 16 & 17 which corresponded to Photos and Signature. There is no question of "Common sense to be adopted" it was direct technical mistake of authority for which we are seeking "Reconsideration theory". Today, the APPSC authority has accepted and considered our cases.
We would request the writer not to write on the reader’s forum without proper justification.
Use of word "Khusi-

Dear Editor,
Through the column of your esteemed daily, I wish to draw the kind attention about reckless driving of commercial vehicles plying in and around capital complex, at the same time the department concern responsible for traffic system and urban development in connection with raising fatal road accident.
It is very painful and deep concern to read in front pages of every local daily about the road accident and loss of lives due to accidents in every single day. Whom to blame for such incident? Such a big interrogation mark arises in every citizen.
In terms of area, population and traffic density, Itanagar is not a small city
when we compares to other, but when we compare in average road accident and loss
of lives due to accident, the graph shows next to Assam amongst NE states and it
is rapidly ascending every year. This whole episode what everyone witnessed is due
to negligence of reckless driving of commercial vehicles, VIP vehicles with red beacon
driven by their kin and kids, two wheeler without helmet and at the same time due
to lack of proper basic infrastructures like road widening, parking place, pedestal
footpath, zebra crossing at junction, proper traffic signal, bye-
It is good to hear that our Government is a people’s first government without any basic facilities towards safety measures to its people. They must wake up and entrust the department concern to act prompt rather giving tall promises to avoid such incident further which lead to untimed loss of innocent lives.
Yours etc,

Central Govt. Dept. need to clean up its act
Dear Editor,
I want to highlight gross injustices being meted out to the people of Arunachal constantly by the Central Departments operating in the State such as BSNL, Doordarshan, All India Radio, CPWD, GREF, BRO etc.
Case in Hand: The All India Radio: Civil Construction Wing has invited approved and
eligible contractors for a construction work in a press tender notice that appeared
in cross section of local dailies on December 6, 2009. However, herein it was mentioned
that the form could be obtained from O/o the Executive Engineer (Civil), Prasar Bharati,
Civil Construction Wing, All India Radio, Tarun Nagar, Bylane-
This is not only the case with the AIR alone. There are many Central Departments, which troubles the people of Arunachal by hosting tender proceedings in faraway places and complicates everything.
Hence, I fervently request the Governor, Chief Minister, Chief Secretary and Contractor Associations to press all the authorities concerned of all the Central Departments operating in the State to carry out all the tender proceedings in the Arunachal Pradesh only. This will not only ensure transparency and smooth conduct of the entire proceedings but will also assuage the problem of the people here.
Yours,
