New Delhi: Former President R Venkataraman died in the national capital at the age of 98. He was admitted at an army hospital 15 days ago following complaints of Urosepsis.

Venkataraman's condition progressively deteriorated since admission despite intensive medical and nursing care, hospital sources said.

He was suffering from multi-organ failure and was on advanced life support systems, including ventilatory support, continuous hemodialysis and drugs to keep his blood pressure normal, they added.

Venkataraman had served as the eighth President of the country from July 25, 1987 to July 25, 1992.

Inpui has reproduced the frank interview of Pu HT Sangliana taken by Tv Lalremlien Neitham, after the North Bangalore parliamentarian was expelled from his party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), for "following his conscience" and voting for Indo-Nuclear deal in the July 2008 Trust Vote against the UPA government. Excerpts:

You voted in favour of the Indo-US Nuclear deal in the recently held Trust Vote against the UPA government. What's your take on the deal?
India, today, has attained reputation of super power status for right or wrong reasons. In reality, we are not yet fully fit to be tested and certified as such for various reasons of which acute Power shortage is most outstanding. In a situation like this it is absolutely natural to not only welcome but support meaningful move of the government such as the Indo-US Nuclear Deal which will give us free access to Nuclear Suppliers Group consisting as many as 45 of them from whom we will be able to buy our nuclear fuel requirements. Such an understanding will give us the long awaited infrastructure building capacity to meet our present and future need of power so that the next generation will not blame us for not taking required steps to ensure availability of sufficient power for them. This is why I stood for immediate materialization or operationalisation of the deal.

You said that you voted in favour of the UPA by following your conscience. Can you elaborate on the conscience?
The deal under consideration was initially started by NDA in which BJP was the biggest stakeholder. But for not being in power now and for fearing that UPA might take full credit for implementation of the deal that BJP wants to have it redrafted so that it will gain some political mileage to improve its image. This is pure politic which I do not like. It hurt my conscience. Undue delay of the agreement is likely to result in our missing the Bus and starting from the beginning again will surely be much costlier. Our own experts' and strategists' motive and patriotism we need not doubt and undo the present draft agreement un-necessarily. What is the need to have doubt on their integrity and say our sovereignty might be lost or trampled upon. This is all un-founded apprehension.

The BJP expelled you from the party as a result of your voting for the UPA government. Would you rejoin the party if it revokes your suspension?
No, I will not. I did not agree with BJP's stand namely re-drafting the agreement for taking political mileage, which is childish.

Some people say that you made a mistake when you voted in favour of the UPA, and that it was your political suicide. Any comments?
Like many others, my voting buttons did not work and I had to sign on a prescribed form meant for use in the event of such failures taking place. In fact, the event turned out to be a welcomed thing as both sides took great interest to know whom I was going to vote. Where is the question of suicidal politics in the process?

Would you have continued to stay with the BJP if your party had not expelled you?
No

What is your opinion on the BJP and its leaderships?
As a party it is as good or as bad as any other party. BJP leaders are also as good or as bad as leaders in other parties. However, their party manifestoes conflict with secular doctrines, outlook and practices. They give first priority to everything connected to Hinduism putting the rest behind back burners.

What is your view on the current politics and politicians of India?
The main problem in Indian polity today is too many regional parties resulting in horse-trading to capture power both in the center and states, which further causes perpetual instability resulting in selfishness and birth of personal/family agenda. Politics today is nothing but commerce/industry and you can make money by resorting to malpractices. Father/mother encourages his/her off springs to enter into politics rather encouraging them to take up regular jobs and make quick money. In every state we find such people whose priority is not peoples' welfare but selfish ends. Due to this corruption prospers and the poor continue to be poor; respect to law and good traditional practices disappear giving birth to selfishness. In fact, regional parties are the creation of either ambitious individuals who want political power or by disgruntled politicians who were not given ticket to stand as candidate in elections.

Aristotle said 3000 years ago that those in Democracy are mostly illiterate/not highly educated and as such their standard of leadership or governance could not be high. This is exactly what we see in our country today except a few intellectuals and highly educated who are in small minority.

In whose party ticket will you be standing for the next general election?
Not yet decided.

Do you have any political aspirations from your native State of Mizoram? If so, will you be entering into State politics?
Yes, I do but not immediately.

If given the reign, how would you handle the rampant corruption, dirty politics, and other peoples' issue in Mizoram?
I will, first of all, set clean personal example in austerity and economy measures will be ensured/ taken in every activity of ministers and government officials. Quality and speed will be insisted in every work. Punctuality will be strictly enforced in office attendance and for completion of every project. Conscious commission and omission of mistakes/ wrong things will be duly punished. Corrupt individuals will be trapped, prosecuted and dismissed from Government jobs. Poor standard of works will automatically disqualify a contractor for future bidding and will be blacklisted. Strict quality control/check will be enforced in each and every work. Vigilance commission will be instituted to contain corruption. Nepotism, favouritism, partiality and selfish act will not be tolerated. Church and NGOs will be requested to assist the Vigilance Commission in the fight against corruption.

Synder, (US) Jan 23: Bibles for the World will present a performance by the India Children’s Choir at 7 p.m. Jan. 30 at Snyder Bible Church, 22622 Fisher Ave. in Snyder.

The famous choir is on a 10-month tour of the U.S. The choir performs in churches, chapel services for ministries, schools, retirement homes and civic events, to name just a few.

The singers come from the hills of Manipur on the India-Burma-China border and tell the story of their people’s transformation from fierce headhunters, only two generations ago, to ambassadors for Christ.

A Gospel of John was given to the tribal leaders in the early 1900s, which set things into motion. Dr. Rochunga Pudaite translated the Bible into the Hmar language for his people, and today 98 percent of the tribe claim Jesus Christ as their Lord. The 22 children, ranging in age from 8 to 12, are direct descendants of these former headhunters who live in the remote areas in Northeast India.

Pudaite, along with his wife Mawii, founded Bibles for the World in 1972, a mission dedicated to sharing the Bible with people in their native languages on a global scale. Since its inception, BFTW has sent over 16 million New Testaments to more than 100 countries around the world. The India Children’s Choir is a ministry of Bibles For The World.

Bibles For The World also runs 30 village schools, five high schools, a junior college, a seminary and eight schools for the untouchable, outcast Dalits near Delhi. The total enrollment of the schools is around 7,000 students, about 15 percent of whom are sponsored by individuals in America. In addition, a hospital has been established by Bibles For The World in Northeast India ministering to people’s physical and spiritual needs.

Bangalore, Jan 21: Three expelled BJP MPs from Karnataka who had supported the United Progressive Alliance government in the 2008 trust vote in parliament are likely to get Congress tickets for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections.

They are H.T. Sangliana (Bangalore North), Manjunath Khunnur (Dharwad South) and Manorama Madhwaraj (Udupi). The three former MPs joined the Congress formally on Tuesday (Jan 20) at New Delhi in the presence of senior Congress leaders.

Pu Sangliana, the former super cop from Bangalore, told reporters: “We were feeling suffocated in the BJP. The Congress is the real secular party.” Pu Sangliana had defeated former railways minister C.K. Jaffer Sharief in the 2004 Lok Sabha elections.

Washington, Jan 20: Barack Obama has taken the oath of office and been sworn in as America's 44th president - and the country's first African-American leader.

More than one million people gathered in the National Mall in a wintry Washington DC, to see Mr Obama take the oath shortly after 1200 (1700 GMT).

He used his inaugural address to vow to begin the work of "remaking America".

He was candid about the challenges facing the US, and said America was entering a "new era of responsibility".

He made reference to the scale of his achievement at being the first black American elected to the White House, in a remark that gathered one of the biggest cheers of the speech. Know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more

"This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed... why a man whose father less than 60 years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath."

But the new president faces serious challenges. America is gripped by uncertainty as the economy faces its worst crisis in decades.

"The challenges we face are real," Mr Obama said. "They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time.

"But know this America - they will be met."

Invoking the memory of the US's Founding Fathers, Mr Obama said he would strive to rebuild his nation's standing in the world, saying: "We are ready to lead once more."

Mr Obama must also handle wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and seek to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

He spoke candidly of the economic crisis and foreign policy challenges facing the US, saying the US would "responsibly leave Iraq to its people and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan".

The new president also addressed the world's poor and the Muslim world, much of which angrily opposed the actions of the previous administration.

From now on, Mr Obama said, the US would seek "a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect".

And, closing his speech to wild cheers yet wearing a serious expression, Mr Obama told his country that while America faces new and different challenges, its people must now enter "a new era of responsibility".

Solemn vows

On a day of unprecedented security in Washington, the inauguration ceremony began on the West Front Lawn of the US Capitol, where Congress sits, with an opening prayer asking for the protection and safety of the new president and vice-president.

Mr Obama stood solemnly during the invocation by conservative Rick Warren, his eyes closed in the final moments before he took office.

Aretha Franklin then sang the US national anthem against a backdrop of clear blue skies and a light wind. Thousands waved flags as the soul legend sang her version of the Star Spangled Banner to a rapturous reception.

Joseph Biden, a veteran senator, was then sworn in as vice-president by the longest-serving member of the US Supreme Court.

The focus then shifted to America's first black president.

Barack Obama placed his hand on a Bible used by Abraham Lincoln at his inauguration in 1861 and repeated the oath of office, promising to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States".

He then began delivering his inaugural address - a 20-minute speech focussing on themes of responsibility, accountability, and the renewal of America and its role and relations with the world.

Vast crowds

Hundreds of thousands of visitors had arrived in Washington in the days before the inauguration, and vast numbers braved early-morning cold to secure a vantage point for the midday ceremony.
Dr King said it might take 40 years. It's been 45 years, I can wait another hour

Competition for tickets along the parade route was fierce, as was the scrum for standing room in the National Mall.

Officials in Washington reported record numbers of passengers on the city's subway network early on Tuesday, and police were forced to close a key entry point hours before event began because of overcrowding.

Before the ceremony began, Michelle and Barack Obama attended a private church service at St John's Episcopal Church alongside Vice-President-elect Joe Biden and his family.

They then headed to the White House for coffee with outgoing President George W Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney.

The group - including Mr Cheney in a wheelchair after pulling a back muscle - then left for the US Capitol, lavishly prepared for the inaugural ceremony.

Crowds in the National Mall will watch proceedings on huge video screens. At least two million people are expected, a record number for an inauguration event.

They will be braving unusually cold weather, with temperatures of -1C expected. Wind chill would make it feel several degrees colder, forecasters said, urging people to guard against possible hypothermia and frostbite.

Early on Tuesday, tens of thousands defied the pre-dawn cold to secure a good spot in the Mall when it opened at 0400 (0900 GMT) to those without tickets.

There was a huge sense of excitement, a BBC reporter at the scene said, with people breaking out in cheers. The subway was as busy at 0500 as it would normally be at rush hour, but most seemed happy to battle through the crowds.

"I've been queuing for hours, I don't care how long I have to wait," Washington resident Ronald Brisbon, 55, told the BBC.

"Dr [Martin Luther] King said it might take 40 years. It's been 45 years, I can wait another hour."

The feeling among the crowds in Washington, correspondents say, is that the changing of the presidential guard will be far more than the sum of its ceremonial parts.

Here is the swearing in speech of United States president Barack Obama.
"My fellow citizens:

I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and co-operation he has shown throughout this transition.

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because we, the people, have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.

So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.

These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.

Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.

On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.

On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.
Key words used by President Barack Obama in his inaugural address.

We remain a young nation, but in the words of scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.

In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted - for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labour, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.

For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and travelled across oceans in search of a new life.

For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and ploughed the hard earth.

For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn.

Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.

This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.

For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. All this we will do.

Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions - who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.

What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works - whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. And those of us who manage the public's dollars will be held to account - to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day - because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.

Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control - that a nation cannot prosper long when it favours only the prosperous. The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our gross domestic product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on the ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart - not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.

As for our common defence, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our founding fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience's sake. And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and we are ready to lead once more.

Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with the sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.

We are the keepers of this legacy. Guided by these principles once more, we can meet those new threats that demand even greater effort - even greater cooperation and understanding between nations. We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan. With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the spectre of a warming planet. We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defence, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.

For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus - and non-believers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace.

To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect. To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West - know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy. To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.

To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.

As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains. They have something to tell us, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages. We honour them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service; a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves. And yet, at this moment - a moment that will define a generation - it is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.

For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter's courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent's willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.

Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - honesty and hard work, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.

This is the price and the promise of citizenship.

This is the source of our confidence - the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.

This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed - why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than 60 years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath.

So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have travelled. In the year of America's birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:

"Let it be told to the future world...that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive...that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet [it]."

America. In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.

Thank you. God bless you. And God bless the United States of America."

Washington, Jan 20: Barack Obama on Tuesday became the first US president to swear on the Bible that Abraham Lincoln used for his inauguration 147 years ago.

US presidents are not constitutionally required to be sworn in using a Bible, though most do, Theodore Roosevelt being the most notable exception.

With expectations from Obama riding high, his choice of the Lincoln Bible is seen as a powerful symbol of a historic occasion.

Presidential Inaugural Committee executive director Emmett Beliveau said Obama was "deeply honoured" to have the first use of the Lincoln Bible since the Civil War to "provide a powerful connection to our common past and common heritage".

This was the first time since Lincoln on March 4, 1861, that this Bible was used for a presidential swearing in.

So far, George Washington's Bible has been a popular choice, used by Warren Harding, Dwight Eisenhower and George W. Bush.

Other presidents have opted for personal Bibles - Richard Nixon used two belonging to his family, and Bill Clinton chose his grandmother's.

Facing a nation divided nation, Lincoln used his first inaugural address to call for national unity, arguing that the US constitution was created "to form a more perfect Union".

The Lincoln Bible, an 1853 Oxford University Press edition, is about six inches long, four inches wide and less than two inches thick.

Lincoln, after taking the oath, had kissed the book, following a tradition started by George Washington.

After the inauguration, the Bible will be on display at the Library of Congress from Feb 12 to May 9 as part of an exhibition for the 200th anniversary of Lincoln's birth.

New Delhi, Jan 18: A special cell team of Delhi Police apprehended four active members of banned Manipuri terrorist organisation Kangeipak-Communist Party (KCP) from Govindpuri area of southeast Delhi.

The arrested were identified as general secretary Chongtham Manglemajao alias KK Naganba alias Chaoba alias Koi alias Irabot (56), Nagriyambam Ratan Sone Singh (35), proposed president Naorem Amumacha Singh alias Yambung (56), and Chongtham Ibomacha Singh (35). The police have also recovered several incriminating documents.


The police received information through the 57 MTN Division and Manipur police that the group was in Delhi to hide and lie low for a while. However, the group was coordinating various militant activities simultaneously. A special team was formed and a trap was laid after receiving information that the group will assemble to discuss its future plans in the Govindpuri area. Documents about the activities of the organisation and Rs 25,000 in cash were also recovered.

The idea of the India Children’s Choir came to Ronald Wells, a minister of music at the First Baptist Church in Spartanburg, South Carolina, in 1979. Both he and his wife Mary Jane had travelled to India to participate with Bibles for the World president Pu Rochunga Pudaite. He felt the story of how the Hmar tribe discovered Christianity should be told through their children’s voices and with music.

Eleven years later, in 1990, Ronald’s dream became a reality and he resigned his position at the church to work full-time on the India project. The musical, he created, shows the birth of Christianity to the Hmar tribe. It is a journey of both courage and compassion, and it engaged audiences throughout the US.

A year earlier, Rochunga and Mawii’s daughter Mary quit her travel consultant business and headed to India to audition children for the choir. Finally, the hundreds of children who responded were narrowed down to the chosen 31 choir members from the ages of eight to twelve. The children were not only from the Hmar tribe, but from the Haokip, Paite and Lusei tribes, as well.

The planning was then underway for bringing the newly established choir to America. There were fundraising, scheduling, meetings and prayer sessions for the group. The children spent countless hours together as they were under the guidance of James Songrolal Songate, the musical director of the Manipur mission schools. They studied and sang together, waiting to be told it was time for their journey to begin.

The children finally arrived in Chicago, where they were guests of the Consul General of India. After meeting him for dinner, they headed out in a 1972 MCI bus and along with Ronald they headed to Spartanburg, South Carolina. When they arrived, they were introduced to their local host families who introduced them to American culture. Once becoming comfortable in their new surroundings, they began learning the new musical, Headhunters to Hearthunters, with Ronald as their director.

April 19, 1990, was the first performance for the India Children’s Choir at the First Baptist Church in Spartanburg. They were attired in native dress and performed as if they had been doing this for years. All 400 performances that year were performed in the same manner.

The professionalism of the India Children’s Choir continues today, as they make stops throughout the United States. They perform in different cities, states and church denominations. The children make a lasting impact on audiences with the spreading of Christ’s love.

Imphal, Jan 15: A meeting with the specific purpose of fostering a sense of fraternity amongst different communities inhabiting in and around the foothills of the Nongmaijing hills was organised today by the Komrem Ramthem Nongmaijing Area at the Thayong Village today.

The meeting was also participated by representatives of the United Committee Manipur and other prominent civil society leaders such as, Rev. Rehang Chothe, president HERICON and Joseph Hmar.

Secretary of the Komren Development Organisation, M Boiler said the Komrem community is one of the smallest in the state numerically speaking.

Not only is the population of the community small, but it is scattered in far flung corners of the state, making them even more vulnerable and weak.

He said because of these vulnerabilities, the community remains backward, and to this day the community`s presence in the state`s corridors of power is negligible.

He said there are also practically no bureaucrat worth the name from the community to ensure the community`s interest is reflected in the policies and plans of the state.

He said during the Naga-Kuki riots in the 1990s, the community was hit from both sides and many of them lost their belongings in the raging inferno.

And now, militants from bigger communities continue to harangue them with intimidation, extortion, kidnapping for ransom etc.

He appealed to everybody to not jeopardise the age old relationship between the fraternal communities inhabiting Manipur.

Speaking at the function, the president of the UCM, Langamba Meitei said it is extremely unfortunate that the small community of Komrem have remained neglected by policy makers in all this while.

He also regretted that certain underground organisations which have entered into a ceasefire agreement and later suspension of operation, SoO, with the government are still with impudence victimising the small and weak community.

He said the government should bear the full responsibility for this, and if extortion happen by organisations which have entered the SoO, the government should be made to give compensation.

Komrem Union, North East India president, Pu. L John, said the small Komrem community must remain united to give itself strength. In particular he said the nine Komrem villages in the Nongmaijing Chingkhong must act as one whenever any one of them come under threat from militants belonging to bigger communities.

Whenever one is attacked, they all must together fight back using whatever weapon in their command, he said.

Guwahati, Jan 13: The Justice PC Phukan Commission of Enquiry , which probed the 2003 clashes between the Hmars and the Dimasas, has suggested that relevant laws should be made foolproof to prevent alienation of land to outsiders in the two districts of NC Hills and Cachar. It has said that land system should be introduced by making appropriate laws to bring uniformity of occupation system after taking into account the local customs.

The State Government constituted the Commission on June 30, 2003. The report of the commission was tabled on the floor of the State Assembly on January 12.

Considering the problem of insurgency in the region, the Commission has said, a mechanism should be evolved for close coordination among the NE states to check inter-state movements of the militants and non-citizens, says the Commission in its report.

It has also suggested that the State Government may actively consider the North Cachar Hills District administration proposal for setting up four new police stations at Harangazao, Langting, Dehangi and Diyungmukh. Besides, more police outposts may be established with adequate strength for effective coverage in the sensitive areas and permanent arrangement should be made for deployment of more security forces when needed in an affected area at a short notice, says the Commission.

It has observed that lack of adequate number of police stations and outposts is detrimental for effective policing in the two districts of North Cachar Hills and Cachar, more particularly in the first one. The NC Hills District has only four police stations of Haflong, Mahur, Maibong and Umrangshu. The distance among the police stations is significantly also wide.

In a significant observation, the Commission has said that Hmar-Dimasa conflict in NC Hills and parts of Cachar District may continue until and unless the infiltration of militants into these two districts from Manipur and Mizoram is stopped.

Since both the districts are affected by the Hmar-Dimasa conflict, the law and order authorities of both the districts should frequently exchange intelligence and make a concerted effort to combat militancy and militant triggered ethnic violence.

Urgent steps should be taken to provide maximum connectivity to villages through rail, roads and telecommunication to enable the security forces to move fast to the affected areas and to take prompt and effective action to quell violence, says the Commission.

It has suggested that the State Government might consider purchasing a helicopter of required sitting capacity for aerial reconnaissance of the affected area, rescue operation of the injured etc at time when incidents of violence occur.

The State Government has accepted the report of the Commission and it reviewing of security and insurgency activities in the districts of Karbi Anglong and NC Hills, says the action taken report of the State Government on the recommendations of the Justice Phukan Commission.

The action taken report has also stated that the State Government is actively considering taking a helicopter on long-term lease. In the meantime, the helicopter of the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India is being used in emergency situation.

Six new police stations and eight new out posts in the district of Karbi Anglong and four new police stations and eight new out posts in the district of NC Hills have been established by the State Government, says the action taken report, among others.

Bangalore, Jan 13: Former parliamentarian and ex-super cop Pu HT Sangliana is one among the 160 international delegates to join US president-elect Barack Obama at his breakfast table on February 5.

Pu Sangliana will be leaving for the United States on February 2, according to sources.

The retired IPS officer will be in the US for about two weeks during which he alongwith the other delegates may be taken on a tour to important places across the United States.

According to sources Pu Sangliana has confirmed that he will join the breakfast event. For this Pu Sangliana went to Chennai on January 11 to collect his visa. It is said that the consulate has given Pu Sangliana a permit for continuous stay of upto 10 years in the US.

The Officer-In-charge at the consulate even told Pu Sangliana that the US wants people like him to stay in America, the source added.

Panel moots implementation of ceasefire rules with DHD

Guwahati, Jan. 12: The Justice P.C. Phukan Commission of inquiry, which probed the ethnic clash between the Hmars and the Dimasas in the volatile North Cachar Hills and Cachar districts in 2003, has recommended that the ceasefire ground rules between the Dima Halam Daogah (DHD) and the government be properly implemented.

Over 50 people had lost their lives in the Hmar-Dimasa conflict.

The commission, however, laid special emphasis on rule 7 of the ceasefire ground rules that prohibits DHD cadres from moving around with arms or in uniforms.

The commission also recommended the government to continue its operations against the Hmar People’s Convention (Democratic) cadres.

The commission in its 75-page report has asked the NC Hills Autonomous Council to regulate sale of land to the non-indigenous communities. It also called for job reservations for the indigenous communities.

It warned that militants sneaked into Karbi Anglong and North Cachar Hills districts from Manipur and Mizoram and till the infiltration went unchecked, such conflicts would continue.

Dispur tabled the commission’s report in the Assembly today with an action taken report (ATR).

In the report, the government said six new police stations and four new outposts had been set up in Karbi Anglong district.

In North Cachar Hills district, four new police stations and eight new police outposts had been set up, it said.

The government is also “actively considering” taking a helicopter on long-term lease so that it could rush in additional forces to the remote districts, according to the report. For emergency use, the government was using a helicopter of the home ministry, the report said.

The kidnapping of three DHD cadres from P. Zoar on the border of NC Hills and Cachar districts on February 26, 2003, had triggered the clashes, the commission said.

It, however, added that social, economic and political aspects were also responsible for fuelling the riots.

“Then the massacre of 28 Dimasas in one single night on April 1, 2003, at Chakarcham and Meghnathal in Cachar district, the worst incident, turned the conflict between the two communities into full-blown communal clashes,” the commission said.

Bangalore, Jan 9: Reacting to Inpui reports about the existence of a “suggestive” blog containing pictures of several celebs and girls from northeast India that were supposedly associated with a leading news portal, Sinlung.com on Thursday night hacked the blogger account of Northeast Pimps blog.

Earlier sinlung.com publisher Mr Patrick Infimate had denied having any links with the blogs that were published under its group name ‘Sinlung News’.


Issuing a warning statement on Friday Mr Infimate said the hacking is a simple reminder to folks not to play with Sinlung, Sinlung News or its sister sites. "I will go to any length that technology permits to bring you down. This is a simple case of a blogger, using blog: http://nepimp. blogspot. com," he said.

“I have taken ownership of the Google account (of the blogger) as well — which consists of 13 other blogs,” Mr Infimate added.

Bangalore, Jan 8:
One of northeast top model and Hmar tribe's most well known professional model Cindy Khozol, based in Mumbai, and Mizo top singers Mami Varte and Mimi, have been featured as one of the Northeast's 'pimps' at North East Pimps blog.

Some readers have informed this reporter that the use of the term 'pimp' by a blog that is allegedly associated with one of northeast India's top news website Sinlung.com is "degrading" to the women of the region.

Publisher and administrator of Sinlung News, Mr Patrick Infimate, however, has said his network had no association with the said blog. "It could be the work of some mischief makers who wanted to tarnish the image of our brand 'Sinlung News'," Mr Infimate said.

Though the blog has no nude or provocative pictures it "clearly implies that 'The Best Girls From The Best Place~Northeast India' could be procured by those interested in an adventurous life," said another regular internet visitor.

"Using the term like 'pimp' which means 'someone who procures customers for whores' or 'sexual partners for others' and putting pictures of our girls in a blog or website is degrading," said one Manipuri blogger who do not want to be identified.

The blog started just a month back in December 2008 has pictures of some celebrities and girls from Assam, Manipur, Mizoram, Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland.
