ITANAGAR, May 20: Setting an important example of how to support developmental activities, the people of Pangin area under East Siang district recently gave punishment to two youths who had beaten up General Manager of T K Engineering Company on April 7. The said company is engaged in construction of Pangin to Pasighat section of Trans Arunachal highway. As per the report on April 7, the two youths namely Tarung Darang of Kallek village and Takar Taku of Rottung village physically assaulted GM of T K Engineering Company at Pangin over petty issue.

As a result of this incident all the employees of company fled from site and work remain halted. This not only caused loss to the company but also became obstacle in construction of Trans-Arunachal highway. However with the initiative of EAC Pangin and local PRI leaders on May 7 a meeting was held at community hall Pangin to discuss the burning problem. The meeting was attended by EAC Pangin, PRI leaders of Rotgong and Nugong Banggo, circle officer, the officials of highway department, director and PRO of TK Engineering Company. After threadbare discussion, the village elders imposed fine of Rs 25000 against Tarung Darang and Rs 5000 against Takar Taku for their misdeeds. Darang was also ordered to bear medical expense of the GM, whom he caused grievous injury. Takar Taku was punished for spitting on site engineer of the company. It is reported that both of them accepted the decision of village elders and apologized for the act.

AITF opposes any move for Rio’s ministerial berth in central Govt

ITANAGAR, May 20: Reacting to media indication that NPF MP elect Neiphiu Rio can be inducted as a minister in the union council of ministers, the Arunachal Indigenous Tribes Forum (AITF) has expressed its strong opposition to any kind of such move due to Naga People’s Front (NPF)’s alleged clandestine agenda against Arunachal Pradesh. Chief Minister of Nagaland Rio emerged victorious for the lone Lok Sabha seat on NPF ticket.

Resenting the authorization of Naga People’s Front (NPF) to participate in the recently concluded simultaneous elections in Arunachal Pradesh despite submission of representations to the President of India, the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Home Affairs through the Governor of Arunachal Pradesh and the Election Commission of India through the Chief Electoral Officer, Arunachal Pradesh to debar the Naga political party, AITF claimed that the aims and objectives of the NPF is to work for the interest of the Nagas only whereas the Arunachalees have never been a part of Nagas.

According to AITF the main agenda under Article-II of the constitution of NPF is to integrate the Naga inhabited areas under one administrative roof in the name of ‘Greater Nagalim’ which is extended to Arunachal Pradesh which cannot be accepted by the indigenous people of Arunachal Pradesh.

“Such a clandestine move has been spearheaded under the NPF leadership, particularly, the former Chief Minister of Nagaland Rio, who has been elected as the member of parliament in the recently concluded general election,” the release said. “If Rio is inducted in the ministry, it will be tantamount to arming him with powerful arms which will never be in the interest of peaceful co-existence of North East Region particularly, Arunachal Pradesh.” It is also apprehended that his induction into the Union Ministry will help him propagate the hidden agenda of ‘Greater Nagalim’ posing threat to the territorial integrity of North East India including Arunachal Pradesh.

AITF said the patriotic Indian citizen of Arunachal Pradesh would never allow extension of ‘Nagalim’ to Arunachal Pradesh.

 

 

ACR, ACS hail CM for passing Lokayukta Bill

ITANAGAR, May 20: Describing the Lokayukta Bill cleared by Chief Minister Nabam Tuki soon after he took the oath as chief minister for second term, Arunachal Citizens Right (ACR) said the bill, which will now become a law, will ensure transparent governance and empower the people to check corruption.

ACCI writes to SERC to reduce tariff

ITANAGAR, May 20: The Arunachal Chamber of Commerce & Industries (ACCI) has expressed strong objection to the power department’s not making optimal use of the state’s own hydropower stations but purchasing power from outside at the cost of the state exchequer, and then passing the cost of the purchase on to its consumers.

In a representation to the State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC) secretary, the ACCI sought clarification in the matter, and urged the secretary to direct the department to ‘optimize the use of domestic resources, reduce the cost of power purchase, and increase revenue through sale of surplus power available from our share of the central sector power projects.’

Referring to the department’s petition for annual revenue requirement and tariff proposal for the 2014-15 period, the ACCI noted that its transmission and distribution losses for 2012-’13 was ‘abnormally high’ at 60.4.%. It said the status reflected the department’s inefficiency to reduce the losses ‘and the same has been passed on to poor, hapless, honest consumers who have been penalized.’

It urged the North Eastern Regional Load Despatch Centre, which restricts power drawal during the lean season, to direct the Power department here to enter into banking arrangements for the surplus power available during the high hydro season (April-September) with other power-starved states, ‘so that the power so banked can be bartered during the lean season.’

The department’s proposal for purchase of power is also not justified, it said, adding that the power purchased during 2012-13 was less than the cost of the power purchased during 2011-12.

‘The saving on account of this is Rs 33.60 crore. The benefit of saving should have been passed on to the consumers, but the department and the commission both did not propose it, and instead hiked the tariff for the following years,’ it said.

The ACCI also urged the secretary to reduce the tariff on electricity surcharge and minimum charges, saying they are unreasonably exorbitant.

 

 

Public leader demands inquiry into implementation of PMGSY schemes at Bameng

ITANAGAR, May 20: Alleging embezzlement of fund meant for construction of rural roads under Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) in Bameng constituency by the local MLA in connivance with contractors/ executing agencies, public leader of Bameng area Vijay Sonam, on behalf of the people of the area has urged the Chief Secretary to conduct a thorough inquiry into implementation of the projects in Bameng Assembly Constituency of East Kameng district by a Special Investigation Team.

Sonam, in a representation to the chief secretary, on behalf of the people of the area, alleged that a large number of PMGSY projects have been implemented or being implemented over the last few years in Bameng assembly constituency and huge amount of funds spent against those projects; but in paper only. Not much headway has been made on the ground.

According him, the projects have not been implemented as per the Detail Project Report (DPR) while the alignments of the road were made as per the convenience of the JCB and bulldozer drivers and the contractors. Most of the roads already completed are unworthy of plying of vehicles. The villagers, for whom the roads were meant for are still marching on foot to reach the destination.

“There is hardly any culvert, retaining wall and side drain etc. to protect the roads. The amount earmarked for such works have been intelligently siphoned off,” it alleged.

“No competitive bidding was allowed deliberately, and wherever bidding was made, the other party was forced to back off due to influence of the MLA of the constituency. This has been done purportedly to fulfill the interest of the contractors and the MLA.”

“The Stage-11 projects works like soiling /metaling etc. have not been done but payment has been made in advance for the ongoing projects without proper implementation those projects, it said and urged the CS to intervene and withhold payment against all the ongoing PMGSY projects in the constituency in the interest of the public.

It further alleged duplicity of centrally sponsored scheme like NLCPR. CRF. RIDF.SPA etc. in Bameng Assembly Constituency and misutlization of fund and demanded the Chief Secretary to conduct inquiry by an independent body into the reported disproportionate assets owned by the MLA of Bameng Assembly Constituency (2004-2014).

 

 

Delay in installation of weighbridge at Ruksin BFC causes concern

Correspondent

RUKSIN, May 20: In an efforts to check revenue pilferage in the Border Facilitation Centre (BFC)s of the state, the government has sanctioned an amount of Rs 65 lakh under Special Plan Assistance (SPA) - 2011-12 for installation of an electronic weighbridge at Ruksin, which is delaying due to alleged negligence of the contractor concerned.

Officials in Pasighat division of Water Resource Department, which is the implementing agency of the project, informed that the contract work for installation of the Weighbridge has been allotted to a local contractor, but he is delaying the work on pretext of some disadvantages.

The effort to check revenue pilferage in the export and import trading items pass through the inter-state check gates was initiated by Nabam Tuki-led state government. The chief minister was very much concern over lose of huge amount of revenue due to tax evasion through un-declaration of goods by transporters in 17 Border Facilitation Counters (BFCs) at different locations. The higher ups of the tax department feel that tax evasion has always been a serious issue and it cannot be detected without the help of specific machines to monitor or ascertain the actual weight of the goods.

Officials informed that the government earlier too, had sanctioned an amount of Rs 27 lakh for installation of another weighbridge at Ruksin BFC, (same location) located at Assam-Arunachal border here. But the work executed by Rural Work Department is yet to complete. The entire official works of Tax & Excise department in the sub-division has been conducted at the BFC, but the authority is not paying keen attention for its infrastructure development. The officials concerned, however, reluctant to disclose about fund released against the weighbridge schemes.

It is pertaining to mention that Ruksin sub-division in East Siang district is an important entry point and known as second gateway of the hilly state. Though the area is not industry-friendly so far, yet Ruksin BFC has reportedly collecting good chunk of revenue deposit under tax and excise department besides tax collected from trading articles. Officials claimed that revenue collection from excise duty, good tax, Value Added Tax (VAT) on inter-state export and import articles is showing an increasing trend for the last three years.

Appeal CM and MPs to intervene

Dear Editor,

In the recently conducted interview for Assistant Engineering under Prasar Bharati, no single Arunachalee was selected (total post were 157 for the north –east, 47 for ST). In fact except five candidates from Assam all the post for North –east were filled up by the outsider. Even ST quotas have also been filled up by the ST of outsiders. It is ok in this case, as barring those five candidates, no local candidate from North –east could qualify for interview.

But it should not happen in the case those 12 Arunachalee candidates who attended interview for the post of Transmission executive and program executive under Prasar Bharati in the month of April 2014. As I mentioned earlier total post of Transmission executive for Arunachal is 11 (7 for ST and 4 UR (unreserved)) and few post of Program Executive. I would also like to mention here once again that for above mentioned post no single Non-APST from the state could reach upto viva-voice. So, those UR post should also be filled from those Arunachalee, who made up to the interview. General candidates from outside must not be appointed in the post notified for Arunachal Pradesh in UR post , at any cost. Otherwise it would be injustice to those 12 local youths.

Our honorable chief minister shri Nabum Tuki has been promising and emphasizing on creation of more job opportunities for the youth. If he is really serious about his promise, he should initiate step for the absorption of those 12 candidates selected for interview in the post of Transmission executive and program executive in Prasar Bharati.

Once again I appeal to our 3 Honorable MPs and Honorable chief minister to impress upon to Prasar Bharati to observe all those 12 youths in Prasar Bahrati. Your little appeal or request to Prasar Bharati will help a lot to those 12 youths.

Yours,

Ronme Dongging.

BJP has not left communal agenda yet

Dear Editor,

This is in response to Poonam I Kaushish's article titled "Modi'fied' India vote for governance"(May 20). According to the author, the "historic" mandate of the BJP has swept away caste, creed and identity politicking! If indeed slogans of "development" and "governance" were the only mantra behind the success, why did the BJP leaders had to constantly engage themselves in rabid Hindutva during the campaign? Apart from repeating the assurance of building Ram Mandir at Ayodhya, the communal elements among the party had not hesitated a bit to assert that Muslims are "terrorists" and "infiltrators" and they "prey on the honour of Hindu women"! What a vitriolic campaign in a secular democratic republic! Why did certain leaders stress on being the "Hriday samrat" of a particular section of population? Why did the BJP constantly focus on the caste status of Narendra Modi? The whole campaign machinery went all-out to exploit religion and caste, that too by casting aspersions on the nationalism of our very own Muslim brothers and sisters; yet the author demands that caste, creed and identity politics have been swept away!

Lastly, let's view the "massiveness" of the "historic mandate" awarded by the "whole nation"!  Simple arithmetical calculations and hard facts will reveal that 69 percent of the votes cast were not for the BJP!

Yours,

Kajal Chatterjee,

Kolkata,

High hope from Modi

Narendra Modi will be sworn in as next prime minister of India on 26th of this month. As Modi gets ready to form new government, hectic lobbying for cabinet berth has intensified among BJP leaders and its coalition partners. There is growing sense of belief that NE states will have healthy representation in Modi-led government. It is too early but names of Tura MP PA Sangma, former Nagaland CM Nephiou Rio, Lakhimpur MP Sarbananda Sonowal along with Arunachal West member of parliament Kiren Rijiju is doing round as probable candidates for cabinet berth.

It is for Narendra Modi to take final call in this regard. But the people of NE states in particularly Arunachalees are hoping that we have a representative in new cabinet. Having a union minister from Arunachal will immensely benefit people of this state which shares international boundary with China, Bhutan and Myanmar. Arunachal need nurturing by union government so that developmental activities is properly implemented. Along with rest of the country, people of Arunachal too has massive expectation from Narendra Modi led government. Hope Modi delivers on all the promises that he made to citizens of this state during his visit to Pasighat and Itanagar.
