ACCYWA inspects dilapidated NH 52-
ITANAGAR, Sep 11: A team of All Capital Complex Youth Welfare Association (ACCYWA)
led by its president Khyoda Daniel and general secretary Tai Roket today inspected
the NH-
The road, which has been left unattended after the monsoon onslaught, was lying in deplorable condition from Banderdewa to Hollongi, claimed ACCYWA.
It claimed to have found during the inspection that the road was in pathetic condition in at least 37 points due to absence of protection walls and drainage system. The bridge near Nirjuli Baptist Church is on the verge of collapse due to lack of protection wall while the road was in worst condition at Karshingsa block point, Tama Fabrication and Vintage point (6km) near here which need immediate repairing.
The condition of the road has been further worsened by unplanned roadside constructions, it claimed, and demanded the authority to take action against such illegal activities. “We have already met several departmental engineers to remind them of the present pathetic road condition as well as to repair it immediately. But they replied that the PWD and Urban Development Department is not taking any initiative to repair the road despite submission of DPR four times,” ACCYWA general secretary Tai Roket said.
Meanwhile, ACCYWA has demanded the PWD and UD Minister Nabam Tuki to relinquish his post if he was unable to serve the state as a PWD Minister. Taking strong exception to Tuki’s stay in New Delhi for more than 3 months, the association urged the AICC chairperson, prime minister as well as state Governor to remind him of his duty and responsibility.

Development aid and donor nation
An analysis of the procurement practices associated with international development aid by the European Network on Debt and Development has revealed that most of the aid money returns to the donor nation rather than boosting the economy of the recipient nation.
Development aid is ineffective mostly because it is tied to contracts worth billions of dollars awarded to firms in developed countries in a phenomenon dubbed boomerang aid, a new study says.
The study by the European Network on Debt and Development (Eurodad) shows that more

Not justified
Dear Editor,
I would like to add something more to the "Clarification" given by Dy. Director (Est.), Deptt. Of UD & Housing, Itanagar in your edition of dated 2nd Sept regarding reservation of 4 post of AUPOs, under the Department Of UD & Housing, GoAP, for physically handicapped (PH) and Meritorious sports persons (MSP). Now, the question is for the recruitment of 4 posts, if we divide or categorise these four vacant posts into 3:5:72, the ratio comes as 0.12 or no post, 0.20 or no post and 2.088 or 3 post respectively so only one post should fall vacant for both PH/ MSP and rest posts come under the other reserved category.
Secondly, a 100 point roster is also maintained in each recruiting department and must need to adopt while following the recruitment process. In such case, first count of 34 shall fall under PH and like after another count of 34 i.e. serial No. 68. Likewise, MSP shall come after every 20 points/ numbers and so on. So recruitment of 4 posts of AUPOs especially for those categories above seems no reason. If the recruitment is done exclusively for the PH and MSP categories, then it can be acceptable, but taking excuses on the ground of Govt. norms seem unjustified.

‘It is an attempt to befool people’
Dear Editor,
The Nyishi Elite Society would like to clarify on the statement given by Kiren Rijiju wherein he referred about a committee not known to us. Time and again, we have clarified in the past through press media that the Nyishi Community has outrightly rejected the committee formed by the Government because of being bunch of victims. Through the letter of Rijiju, it is learnt that 3 senior members of Nyishi Community have accompanied the government team which was ‘shameful and unfortunate’. The involvement of Rijiju on the issue without even sharing a word with us in his capacity as the Chief Advisor to the Chief Minister has nothing to do with the Nyishi Community nor we endorse it.
Therefore, issuing confusing statements at this juncture to befool the people from a man of his stature is condemnable and we advise him to be at least honest in dealing with the sentiment of the people.

Time for some soul searching
Dear Editor,
This is in response to article “Attack on Advocate-
On the other hand, Arunachalee people should stop intimidating and bullying professionals. We often complain about judiciary and media being so weak in Arunachal and always use every opportunity to ridicule them. However attack on advocate Tagum shows that it is for such reasons that media and lawyers are not able to work freely in the state. The people of Arunachal should ask few questions to themselves. It is time for some soul searching. Even I am a professional student and after completing educations want to come back and work in Arunachal. However such incident discourages us and may be many students including me will better prefer to work outside state after completing degree. Now onus is on you Arunachalee people, whether you want professionals to work freely or lose them to other states.

There are many ways to solve the problem; Bandh is only wasting our time and money. Today we read in news papers that tomorrow there is a Bandh in Aalo, Pasighat, Tirap, Changlang, Itanagar, Assam. Let us create better atmosphere for better tomorrow.
