16:39 Sharif brothers tried to assassinate me twice: Zardari: Pakistan’s former president Asif Ali Zardari has claimed that ousted prime minister Nawaz Sharif and his brother Shahbaz Sharif twice planned to assassinate him.
Zardari, 62, said that Nawaz and Shahbaz plotted his murder when he was serving his eight-year-long sentence in corruption cases. He said the Sharif brothers planned to kill him when he was going to a court to attend his hearing.
“The Sharif brothers twice planned my murder in captivity in 1990s,” Zardari said while speaking to party workers at Bilawal House Lahore.
Zardari further said Nawaz has been trying to make a contact with him to seek his support but ‘I have refused’.
“I have not yet forgotten what they (Sharifs) have done to Benazir Bhutto (his wife) and me. We forgave them and signed Charter of Democracy, but still Mian sahib (Nawaz) betrayed me and went to court in memogate in order to label me a traitor,” he said.
The memogate controversy revolved around a memorandum seeking help of the Obama administration in the wake of the Osama bin Laden raid to avert a military takeover of the civilian government in Pakistan.
The memo is alleged to have been drafted by Pakistan’s then ambassador to the US Husain Haqqani at the behest of Zardari.
Sharif demanded an inquiry into the matter and also threatened to resign from the National Assembly if the Zardari government did not satisfactorily probe the matter.
“The Sharif brothers cannot be trusted this time around and I will not shake hands with them,” he added.
“They change colour so quickly. When they are in trouble they are ready to cooperate with you…. when in absolute power they hit you smartly,” Zardari said.
Zardari made it clear to the party leaders to forget an alliance with the PML-N after 2018 election. — PTI
16:04 Mother of girl starved to death in Jharkhand alleges threats from villagers: The mother of the 11-year-old girl, who died allegedly of starvation in Jharkhand’s Simdega district a few days ago as her family’s ration card was not linked to the Aadhaar, has accused the villagers of threatening and abusing her for ‘defaming’ the village.
Koyli Devi, the mother of the victim, said she was ‘living in fear’ as the villagers thronged outside her house and abused her family.
“I have been living in fear; villagers abused me and asked me to leave the village. They thronged outside my house and abused me and threatened me as I raised the issue,” she told ANI.
Following the threats, Koyli Devi and her family reportedly travelled 8 km from her village to the Patiamba village in the Jaldega block to take shelter.
The police then brought them back to Simdega and deployed a security team outside their residence.
The victim, Santoshi Kumari, died on September 28 after her mother was unable to feed her.
The family was struck off from the government welfare rolls for not linking their ration card with the Aadhar card.
Meanwhile, Jharkhand Food Minister Saryu Roy said, “Action would be taken if anyone threatens Koyli Devi. We have ensured now that she doesn’t face any problem.” — ANI

He also tagged a news report titled ‘Rajasthan ordinance is against free speech, say legal experts’.
The report said the ordinance prohibited an investigation without prior sanction against judicial officers and public servants and also restricted the media.
It said under the proposed law, the media cannot report on accusations against magistrates and others until the prosecution gets the go-ahead from the sanctioning authority.
The state government said in a release last night there was no provision in the ordinance to protect corrupt officials. — PTI
14:26 CRPF jawan dies of malaria in Chhattisgarh: A jawan of the Central Reserve Police Force’s elite CoBRA unit today died of malaria in Chhattisgarh’s Sukma district, police said.
Head constable Brahmanand, belonging to the 206th battalion of CoBRA (Commando Battalion for Resolute Action), succumbed to malaria at Sukma district hospital, Additional Superintendent of Police Jitendra Shukla told PTI.
The jawan, posted at the paramilitary force’s camp in Chintagufa, was last night admitted to the CRPF’s field hospital there.
He was shifted to the district hospital in a serious condition this morning, he said.
The body will be sent to his native place in Uttar Pradesh after the post-mortem, the ASP said.
Last week, a jawan from the same camp suffered from malaria and is currently under treatment in Raipur, he said.
Shukla said adequate precautions are being taken as all personnel deployed at the camps are provided mosquito nets and repellents.
Despite the precautions, the personnel are exposed to mosquitoes due to their long operations in the forest areas, he said.
Malaria, the mosquito-borne infectious disease, has been common in the interiors of Bastar division after rains.
Several security personnel, deployed in anti-Maoist operations in the region, have lost their lives or fallen sick due to the life threatening fever in the past. — PTI

The Chinese Embassy made the request in a letter written to the Interior Ministry on October 19, saying a member of the banned terrorist group East Turkestan Islamic Movement (ETIM) has sneaked into Pakistan to assassinate its ambassador.
The letter, circulated in the local media, was written by the focal person for the multi-billion dollar China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) Ping Ying Fi who asked the Interior Ministry to ‘enhance the protection’ of the ambassador and other Chinese working in the country.
This, the letter says, will not only help foil the nefarious designs of the terrorist but will also help in getting to other terrorists involved in the plot. China has appointed Yao Jing, who has served as Chinese Ambassador to Afghanistan, as its new envoy to Pakistan.
Yao replaced Sun Weidong, who served as China’s Ambassador to Pakistan for three years and recently returned to his country.
In the letter, Ping shared details of the terrorist’s passport and demanded his immediate arrest and handover to the Chinese Embassy. It identified the terrorist as Abdul Wali.
The Interior Ministry and the Chinese Embassy have declined to comment on the letter.
The ETIM largely operates from China’s restive Muslim- majority Xinjiang region, bordering Pakistan. The security of Chinese officials in Pakistan is a major issue and the Army has been tasked to provide security to the Chinese working on various projects, including the CPEC.
The CPEC, which traverse through Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, will connect Xinjiang with Pakistan’s seaport Gwadar through a network of rail, road and pipeline. — PTI

– Over the last three years we have changed that and given importance to the development of Gujarat.
– Gujarat is blessed with a long coastline and we should harness opportunities arising due to this. We took steps in developing coastal infrastructure.
– This ferry service will not be restricted to this one route. We are planning to link other places also through ferries.

12:33 Centre de-affiliates 400 ITIs for failing quality norms: The government has de-affiliated close to 400 industrial training institutes after quality inspections administered by it found the institutes lacking the requisite infrastructure and trainers for imparting vocational training to students.
Asked about around 400 out of the 13,000-odd ITIs being de-affiliated, Joint Secretary in the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship Rajesh Agarwal replied in the affirmative.
“We get (them) inspected, we see the quality of infrastructure, the trainers that should be there as per the guidelines.
“When it is not there the ITIs are de-affiliated because ultimately if you have to be an ITI at the NCVT (National Council for Vocational Training) level, there are certain minimum conditions that you have to meet,” Agarwal told PTI.
He said the skill development ministry has begun monitoring the ITIs with a view to maintaining their quality standards and also introduced voluntary self grading by the institutes.
“We are trying to see that centres or institutes which are not up to the mark or quality are slowly chucked out of the system,” Agarwal said.
The government’s vocational training programmes are administered by ITIs, whichcater to about 36 per cent of the seven million people enrolled invarious training programmes in India.
According to Agarwal, about 5,100 ITIs have been gradedtill now under the star rating system and are presently in theprocess of getting inspected through third parties andcertification assessment.
“It is a voluntary process. We are trying to build incentives around grading. ITIs who get graded and are doing well, there are incentives for them to grow, whereas the ones not getting graded will slowly phase out,” the Joint Secretary said. — PTI

10:48 Missing Indians in Iraq: Families’ DNA tests normal, says govt: The Government of India has said that asking relatives of the 39 Indians who went missing in Mosul, Iraq, three years ago to undergo DNA tests is normal procedure to confirm identification.
Both India and Iraq maintain that the 39 Indian nationals are still alive and authorities in both countries remain committed to continue their search for them on this assumption.
“All of us have been asked to undergo DNA test,” Gurpinder, the sister of Manjinder, one of the missing Indians, told ANI.
In July this year, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj had firmly said in Parliament that she would not declare the 39 Indians dead without concrete proof or evidence.
“It is a sin to declare a person dead without concrete evidence. I will not do this sin,” Swaraj said in a statement in the Lok Sabha on the fate of 39 Indians missing in Iraq since 2014.
India has asked Iraq for help in locating the missing Indians after Iraqi forces recaptured Mosul from ISIS, and New Delhi has repeatedly said it won’t end the search for these missing citizens, believing that they are still alive.
“This file will not close till there is proof that the 39 Indians are dead. I will not commit the sin of declaring them dead without any evidence,” Swaraj had said in July, adding then that insofar as this emotive issue is concerned, there is no benefit to the government by misleading the people.
Iraq’s Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Eshaiker al-Jafari is also on record as saying around that time that Baghdad does not have “substantial evidence” to prove that the missing Indians are dead.
The 39 persons, most of whom hail from Punjab, were working on projects near Mosul, when they were kidnapped during their evacuation.
India is on record as saying that every effort is being made by Iraq and other countries to help trace the abducted Indians.
10:34 Rape victim’s silence no proof of consent: Delhi HC: The silence of a rape victim cannot be taken as proof of consent for sexual relations, the Delhi high court has observed while upholding a man’s 10-year jail term for raping a pregnant woman.
Justice Sangita Dhingra Sehgal made the observation while rejecting a rape convict’s defence that the victim’s silence about the incident proved consensual sexual relations.
“The defence taken by the accused that the prosecutrix (victim) had consensual sexual relations with him which is pointed out from her silence about the incident, holds no ground, as mere silence cannot be taken as proof of consensual sexual relations as she has also stated that she was being threatened by the accused.
“Thus, any act of sexual intercourse in the absence of consent would amount to an act of rape,” the high court said, while upholding a trial court’s 2015 decision to convict and sentence to 10-year imprisonment one Munna, who was then 28 years old, for repeatedly raping a 19-year-old woman.
The high court also upheld the decision of the trial court to acquit Munna of the offences of kidnapping, saying there were inconsistencies in the woman’s statements regarding how she had reached Delhi.
It also agreed with the subordinate court’s decision to acquit him and co-accused Suman Kumar of the charge of trying to sell the woman into prostitution as alleged by her.
The high court was hearing Munna’s appeal against his conviction and sentence, as well as the plea of the police challenging the trial court’s decision to acquit the two men of the other offences.
10:13 Azharuddin may contest 2019 polls from Telangana: Former cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin has been invited by the Telangana Congress to contest the 2019 elections from the state.
The 54-year-old former Team India captain said he felt happy and honoured with the invitation extended to him by Telangana Congress president N Uttam Kumar Reddy, and that he would move ahead vis-a-vis his role in the party in consultation with the high command.
Azharuddin, a former Congress MP from Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh, said he already campaigns for the party at different places in the country.
Speaking at an event, Reddy invited Azharuddin to contest elections from the state, either for the post of MP or MLA, when the former cricketer expressed his readiness to work for the party in Telangana.
“If we work together again, our Congress government will come in Telangana,” Azharuddin said at the public event yesterday. To this, Reddy said, “I am inviting you, in Telangana, whichever MP or MLA…you want to contest. We will call you to contest.”
Azharuddin, who hails from Hyderabad, had unsuccessfully contested the 2014 Lok Sabha election from Rajasthan.
The assembly elections in Telangana are scheduled to be held simultaneously with Lok Sabha polls in 2019.
08:57 Sushma in Dhaka, to meet Hasina today: External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will meet Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in Dhaka today.
Swaraj, who is on a two-day visit to the country, will also attend the fourth Bangladesh-India Joint Consultative Commission (JCC) meeting, the Dhaka Tribune has reported.
This is Swaraj’s second visit to Bangladesh. She last visited the country in 2014.
The JCC meeting is expected to review the implementation and progress of decisions taken during Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s visit to India this year.
The meeting will coordinate, oversee and follow-up implementation of initiatives as well as explore new avenues for cooperation.
The third JCC meeting was held in New Delhi in 2014.
India and Bangladesh have witnessed a deepening of bilateral economic cooperation in recent years, particularly in terms of increasing volumes of trade and investment flows.
08:42 JNU students served showcause notice for staging gherao on Feb 27: A proctorial inquiry committee of the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) has issued show cause notices to around 15 students for staging a gherao, which “disrupted the normal functioning” of the university administration early this year.
The committee has also observed that staging the gherao was an act of “indiscipline” and “misconduct”.
The allegation has, however, been denied by the students.
The notice issued to the students said, ‘You have been found guilty in the following acts of indiscipline — sitting in room no. 225 of the Administration Block the whole night of February 27, despite a request by the security persons to vacate.’
If the students fail to defend themselves, they will have to face punishments, including cancellation of admission, withdrawal of degree, fines up to Rs 20,000 and rustication for two semesters, depending on the charges slapped against them.
‘Your reply should reach this office latest by October 25 (5 pm), failing which it will be presumed that you have nothing to say in your defence and this office will be free to take appropriate action against you,’ the notice said.
However, the students have dismissed the allegations and claimed that they were targeted for staging protests against the implementation of the UGC gazette, which resulted in seat cuts.
“I have been proved guilty without being shown evidence and without being given a chance to defend myself,” said one of the students.
Former JNU Students’ Union general secretary Satarupa Chakraborty alleged that the university administration was trying to instill a sense of fear among the students and discourage them from raising voice against any injustice through heavy fines, hostel transfers, suspension and blocking of academic activities.
“In the name of the UGC Gazette, they (administration) blocked the admission of nearly 1,000 students from deprived backgrounds,” she said.

08:22 ‘Hardik a Congress agent’: Former aides slam Gujarat OBC leader: The Congress has received a boost ahead of the Gujarat assembly polls, with backward class leader Alpesh Thakor announcing his decision to join the party, after a meeting with Rahul Gandhi.
The announcement came hours after the Congress, which has been out of power in Gujarat for over two decades now, invited Patidar quota stir spearhead Hardik Patel, OBC leader Alpesh Thakor and Jignesh Mevani, a protagonist of resurgent Dalit politics in the key western state, to join the party.
Thakor, the convenor of the Gujarat OBC Ekta Manch and leader of the local Thakor Sena, has considerable influence among backward classes.
Thakor, accompanied by Congress general secretary incharge of Gujarat Ashok Gehlot and state party chief Bharatsinh Solanki, met Gandhi at his residence in New Delhi yesterday evening. Soon thereafter, Thakor said Rahul Gandhi would attend a rally organised by him on October 23 where “I will join the Congress party”.
But Hardik Patel, the Patidar leader who spearheaded a prolonged agitation for reservation in government jobs and educational institutions for people of his community, was rather tepid in his response to the Congress’s invitation.
“It is a political stunt, coming as it does just before the elections. I cannot contest elections myself because of constitutional provisions, nor do I want. Since an invitation has been extended, our leaders will consider the proposal,” he told a TV news channel.
Patel, whose quota stir often turned violent resulting in the death of several people in police action, is 24 years old. The minimum age required for a person to contest an assembly or Lok Sabha election in is 25.
However, in a dramatic turn of events, Hardik Patel’s key aides — Varun Patel and Reshma Patel — have joined the BJP.
Varun and Reshma were among the prominent faces of the Hardik Patel-led Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti (PAAS) and remained critical of the ruling BJP during the agitation. They joined the BJP after a meeting with Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, Deputy Chief Minister Nitin Patel and state party chief Jitu Vaghani during its parliamentary board meeting, which was also attended by BJP president Amit Shah.
After joining the BJP, the Patidar leaders told reporters that Hardik has become a “Congress agent” and was trying to use the agitation to overthrow the present state government.
“Our agitation was about getting reservations under the OBC quota, not about uprooting the BJP and bringing the Congress to power. While the BJP always supported the community and accepted a majority of our demands, Congress is only trying to use Patels as a vote bank. We do not want to be part of such malicious conspiracy,” Reshma Patel said.
“This agitation was not of Hardik Patel’s alone. He is now acting like a Congress agent. I and Varun are of the opinion that the BJP would definitely fulfil our demands,” she said.
According to Varun Patel, the Patidar community will never allow the Congress party to take over the reins of Gujarat by inciting Patel youths.
“The BJP government (in the state) held talks with us in the past to resolve various issues. However, the Congress never held such talks, as they were not committed. We have decided to join BJP because we do not want to run the agitation by becoming Congress agents,” said Varun Patel.
“The BJP government even promised us to represent the issue of reservation to the OBC Commission. BJP leaders also promised us to provide legal help in case we want to take up the matter with the Supreme Court,” he added.
Unfazed by the announcement of his key aides, Hardik Patel said in a tweet he that will continue to fight for the people.
“The centipede will continue to run even if some of his legs break. People are with me, and I will continue to fight for them,” he said.

08:05 ‘Mersal’ producer yields to BJP, says willing to cut scenes: Facing flak from the Tamil Nadu BJP over dialogues allegedly flaying the GST in Mersal, the film production house has said that if needed, it would delete scenes that have caused “misunderstanding”, even as the Congress slammed the saffron party for demanding cuts.
The producers also said that the BJP’s opposition to some dialogues in Mersal was “just” from its own perspective.
Giving indication that a truce had been reached between the production house and the state BJP, the producers claimed that BJP leaders have accepted their explanation.
Sri Thenandal Films head Murali Ramaswamy said, “From their perspective, their opposition is just. If opinions (expressed in the movie) that may lead to misunderstanding need to be removed, we are ready for that too.”
Earlier, Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi and senior party leader P Chidambaram had hit out at the state BJP for demanding cuts in Mersal.
“Mr Modi, Cinema is a deep expression of Tamil culture and language. Don’t try to demon-etise Tamil pride by interfering in Mersal,” Rahul Gandhi said in a tweet which was retweeted by Chidambaram.
The BJP leaders have appreciated “our honest approach to meet them in person, we thank them all”, the film’s producer said after a meeting with state BJP chief Tamilisai Soundararajan and other leaders.
“We explained the movie’s objective, our stand and that this movie has not been produced with an intention to hurt anyone and they have generously accepted it,” he said.
“Mersal is not against anyone. It is not a film that expresses opinions against the government either. Even an ordinary person should get access to proper medical amenities and this is the story line of the movie,” Ramaswamy said in a statement.
However, he did not elaborate whether the BJP leaders insisted on removing views they found “objectionable” or whether the producers will effect the cuts or not.
In a statement, the Tamil Film Producers Council and South Indian Artistes’ Association opposed cuts as the movie had already been censored. They claimed that it went against the right to freedom of expression and will set a bad precedent.
Meanwhile, the BJP has said while the people have right to criticise the government, they must keep their facts correct. H Raja said the BJP welcomes criticism but was only objecting to wrong facts about central government schemes being shown in the film.
“We welcome criticism. But one should not deliberately give false statement through a movie. Some facts in the movie are wrong and we have objected to it. We want rectification of the wrong statements,” he said.
Mersal, starring Tamil star Vijay, landed in a controversy after Tamilisai Soundararajan said ‘misconceptions’ were being promoted in the film about central government schemes, including GST and Digital India.
