to conduct compensation assessment for early construction of Trans-
Reacting to the claim of the Youth Organisation Movement of Arunachal Pradesh (YOMA), ATWO in a letter to the Chief Secretary said that the Jabli village was recognized by the Govt of India during 2011. It further said that there is no illegal structure or haphazard earth cutting which may cause inconvenience to the travellers.
YOMA in a statement earlier said that more than 150 OBT buildings were erected overnight at Joram, Deed, Raga and Ziro for claiming TAH compensation in Lower Subansiri district. YOMA had also added that illegal practice of malicious people causes inconvenience to travellers claiming that haphazard earth cutting is going on. It had further claimed that due to illegal construction, the compensation amount was increasing every day.
However, describing the claim of the YOMA as false and misleading, ATWO said there is no road blockade for travellers and no malafide intension to get handsome compensation. The structures were erected for dwelling purposes earlier, not with a motive to claim compensation, the ATWO further said. The authorities must compensate the TAH affected people, the organization added.

Pul alleges financial mismanagement by Govt
Staff Reporter
ITANAGAR, Apr 03: Just a day after being expelled from the Congress party, Hayuliang MLA, Kalikho Pul today launched a scathing attack on the Congress led state government and alleged them of financial irregularities.
Pul claimed that the state is going through severe financial crisis due to the financial mismanagement of the present government. Situation is so bad that it compelled the Chief Secretary to order closing of the year on March 24 instead of March 31, Pul added.
"Government is not able to pay money to the contractors. Therefore they have issued
cheques which have validity till April 30th. It means they have no money to pay now
and are waiting for the new funds to come. Unconfirmed sources say that the state
government is facing deficit of Rs 6 thousand crore," said Pul. He also said in the
financial year 2014-
Thrashing the allegations of funds mismanagement by him during as the finance minister, Pul said, "I left the finance ministry on November 2011. When I left there was Rs 1127.17 crore in the state exchequer. Also an amount of Rs 1293.37 crore received as upfront and processing fee from hydropower developers was used for implementation of the Sixth Pay Commission. Therefore, how can people blame me for the present financial mess," said Pul.
Lastly he added that the present liabilities of state government to the tune of above 6 thousand crore and the money supposedly to come under 14th finance commission is around the same. "Whatever new fund we receive under 14th finance commission will be spent to clear the liabilities. Now tell me where is the money for development? From where will they pay salary to the government employees," Pul added.
Pul also informed that the funds for PMGSY, DONER, NEC and NRHM has been misused due to which no fresh fund is coming to the state. Painting of gory days ahead, he claimed that due to the present financial crisis, the situation is fit to declare financial emergency in the state and imposition of Presidents' Rule.

Pul said he was dropped from the cabinet as Health and Family Welfare minister on December 24 last year because of his initiative to streamline the health department.
"Health department was in pathetic condition. In order to streamline the department, I started with the move to increase the manpower. We have shortage of 7624 personnel in the department. I asked the CM to create posts to fill these vacancies. Due to bad financial situation, 2986 post was approved. However the Cabinet did not give full approval and only accorded in principle approval. I walked out of the Cabinet as I could not convince my fellow cabinet colleagues on such important matter. Out of sheer frustration I resigned which was not approved by the CM," Pul said. He added, "There was serious corruption in the medicine procurement process. I visited various hospitals and found that soon to be expired medicines with low quality were being procured. I tried hard to streamline the process. Now when I look back, the decisions that I took in the interest of the state were not liked by many people. Many people might have been dissatisfied due to my action for which I was dropped," he said.

Majority of women drug users introduced to opium by husbands
Itanagar, Apr 03: A majority of women drug-
The study -
Among 100 persons, who were surveyed, 6.4 per cent had taken drugs at least once (just ahead of Tripura's 1.1 per cent), the study found.
A higher percentage of drug consumption was found prevalent amongst users in Manipur (28.2 per cent), Mizoram (17.4 per cent), Nagaland (14.9 per cent), Meghalaya (12.1 per cent), Assam (10.2 per cent) and Sikkim (9.8 per cent).
The study was commissioned by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime under its regional initiative "Prevention of transmission of HIV amongst drug users in SAARC Countries".
This is the first comprehensive study of women who use drugs across all the eight states of the Northeast.
The study said "substance use among women is associated with early initiation to sex, sexual abuse, greater number of sexual partners, exchange of money for sex, and infrequent use of condoms with sexual partners".
It noted that among more than half of the women drug users in Arunachal Pradesh, the prime source of income is through selling drugs or sex.
Comparing the demographic characteristics of women who use drugs in high HIV prevalent (Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram and Nagaland) and low HIV prevalent states (Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Sikkim and Tripura), the study said that women from the high HIV burden states are slightly older, more of them tend to be widowed/separated/divorced and a smaller proportion live with a partner/spouse.
Concerns were raised regarding the fact that in low HIV burden states, a significant
proportion (57 per cent) of women begins to inject drugs without transitioning from

It also stated that women in these states "who use drugs exhibit greater frequency of paid sex as well as sex in exchange for drugs".

Make status report public
Dear Editor,
It is a matter of grave concern and anguish for All Nyishi Students’ Union (ANSU) that in recent past crime against students has increased manifold. But in most cases the police and administration have utterly failed to nab the culprits. ‘But enough is enough’ and now onwards ANSU will not tolerate any crime against students’ community.
The ANSU is constantly and continuously committed to safeguard and protect the interest of all students irrespective of their family background and without any discrimination. In the eyes of ANSU all students are equal.
On 31st March in the morning hour Tani Tana was found brutally murdered that too inside the premises of Government M.E school, ESS sector, Itanagar. Till 6 am he was at home and at 8:30 am his body was seen and found inside the bathroom of the above mentioned school in the pool of blood. His head was severely smashed and there was injury mark around his neck also. This explicitly and amply proves that an innocent child Tani Tana was murdered.
I being the education secretary of ANSU would like to draw the attention of the
Home Minister towards the heinous crime and strongly demand that the status report
inclusive of the progress made in the investigation of the most brutal and most inhumane
act of murder of Tani Tana, a 10 year-
At the same time, I, on behalf of the ANSU, also raises its finger on insensitivity
of ‘education department’ which allows academic institutions to be safe haven for
criminals and anti-
I on behalf of ANSU demand immediate and prompt action to nab the culprit(s) and also to pay the substantial amount of compensation to the poor and bereaved family who lost their talented son. Looking forward for a prompt action from your end.

Improve power supply in Ziro
Dear Editor,
Through esteemed daily we would like to draw the attention of Honourable MLA of 17th Ziro –Hapoli constituency toward erratic power supply in Ziro valley.
Every year from the month of November to April people of Ziro-
From the month of January to March, regular power supply is very much needed because within these moths various exams are conducted, besides Apatani festival of Mokyo, Murung, Meda.
While others can manage somehow, but poor students who are preparing for exam and interview needs regular power supply especially at night.
During election campaign, our MLA promised to rectify the irregular power supply by repairing the old Hydel. This promise touched us very much. So students and many other commoner voted for our him because so far no other MLA talked on this issue. But it seems that his promise is just like any other politician’s promise which is seldom kept.
Our MLA is doing very good job such as broadening the colony roads but please also address the problem of power supply. We do not mind if power is supplied irregularly during day time, but we need uninterrupted power supply whole night.
We are concluding our appeal with hope that from next year our table lamp does not go off at night. And we also appeal to NGOs of Ziro–Hapoli to take up this issue with the concerned authority because it now it very difficult and irritating to live with hourly system of power supply every year!!
Yours,

No work culture is the age-
Dear Editor,
We see bizarre scenes in most of the government offices whenever we happen to visit there. No work culture is the age old culture of state government employees. On the basis of available facts, there are three or four categories of employees.
First category of employees goes to office late and come back early, doing nothing.
Second category of employees goes to office however, pass their time gossiping with their colleagues. Third category of employees hardly goes to office. The fourth category is of course, the miniscule group of employees, who work sincerely and diligently, and they are the people who are running the show if there is anything left to call it.
Some responsible officers who do not go to office attend when they see some personal gain. Otherwise, they spend their time in hunting, fishing, gambling, extending their empire etc.
From this we can understand the deep malaise rooted in the system itself. The number of such officer/officials in the state can run into thousands if not lakh. This are the reasons why nothing move in the state govt. offices for months/years together. I want to remind the those employees that they are not only behaving irresponsibly but also help generating irresponsible citizens for the future. Their young kids are observing silently. They are growing up fast to follow suit.
From the above scenario, it is apparent that more than half of the employee’s donot have job to perform. If that is so, why does not government sack them from service? Generation of employment for the sake of employment does not make any sense. I believe the efficient work culture of the state govt. employees can be improved considerably if the strength of employees is trimmed from the present strength, and holidays are reduced to a minimum.
And at the same time they should also be made accountable for timely completion of each and every job assigned efficiently, umpteen number of state holidays and bandhs have made the employees further cripple and lazy.
When their counterparts of public sector unit can live with 10 days of holidays in a year, why do the state govt. employees need more holidays?

Explore better ways of revenue generation
Dear Editor,
The installation of new electric meter system has become a matter of concern for the people of Arunachal Pradesh.
The objections raised by the consumers are not unfounded. What is the need for changing
the meter when it is working well? The general public is not at all prepared for
the drastic change in these circumstances. Better ways of revenue generation may
be explored by the Government rather than insisting on this controversial method.
While other states are making all out efforts to provide free or subsidized electricity
to the citizens; ours also should take people-
The Government might reconsider the new policy in the light of grievances and aspirations of the masses.
