SC agrees to hear Nawab Malik's plea seekingimmediate release from ED custody

AGENCYNEW DELHI, APR 13

The Supreme Court onWednesday agreed to list forhearing a plea of MaharashtraMinister and NCP leader NawabMalik filed against an order ofthe Bombay High Court whichhad rejected his interimapplication seeking immediaterelease in a case of moneylaundering being investigated bythe Enforcement Directorate.

A Bench headed by ChiefJustice of India NV Ramanaagreed to list the case for hearingafter senior advocate Kapil Sibal,appearing for Malik, mentionedthe matter for urgent listing ofthe case.

Sibal told the apex court,"This is Nawab Malik's matterwhere ED is taking proceedings.The act came into place in 2005,the transaction is prior to 2000. Atransaction from 22 years ago is

sought to proceed."To this, CJI said, "Yes, we

will list it." Malik has challengedthe March 15 order of theBombay High Court which hadrejected his application sayingjust because the specialPrevention of Money LaunderingAct (PMLA) court's order

remanding him in custody is notin his favour, it does not makethat order illegal or wrong.

After the EnforcementDirectorate had arrested Malikunder the provisions of thePMLA, he had filed a habeascorpus plea in the High Courtclaiming that his arrest by the ED

and the consequent remandswere illegal. The High Court hadsaid that Malik was arrested bythe ED in accordance with thelaw, and subsequently beenremanded to the ED's custodyand then to judicial custodyfollowing due process.

The 17th cleric of Tibetans, KarmapaUgyen, has been granted a five-yearFCRA license to the Gyuto TantricMonastery in Dharamsala, Trinel Doraj.This license was already linked to theKarmapa. The Gyuto Tantric Monasteryhas been a temporary residence of theKarmapa. In 2011, the KarmapaMonastery was raided by the HimachalPolice from where the police recovered ahuge amount of currency from 26countries. There was a lot of anger amongthe Tibetans regarding this matter, thenthe problems of the Karmapa alsoincreased. This issue, which was indiscussion for more than a year, left itsmark in India as well as China. Alongwith this, the issue of benami propertiesof Tibetans in Dharamsala was alsoheated, but in the end, in 2012, the formerDhumal government of the state, giving aclear chit to the Karmapa, gave them a lotof relief by taking back this issue. Theabbot of Gyuto Monastery, LobsangKhedup, confirmed the development andexplained that the FCRA license is toreceive donations from abroad, especially

from the United States. The Karmapa,who suddenly arrived in India in the year2000, obtained a Commonwealth ofDominica passport in 2017-18. Indianever recognized the thirty-six year oldTibetan spiritual master. After the DalaiLama, Tibetans consider Karpama astheir guru. According to officials, themonastery has been given FCRA licenseunder the religious-cum-educationcategory for Buddhist teachings. He saidthat the license is valid for five years i.e.till 2027. The move assumes significanceas the border dispute between India andChina in eastern Ladakh is intrinsicallylinked to the Tibet issue. There has been aviolent face-off between Indian andChinese armies in eastern Ladakh sinceMay 2020.

Dharwad, where I live, is a small town. If thepopulation of India in 1941 was somewherenear 36 crore, that of Dharwad was 47 thou-

sand, seven or eight thousandth part of the total. Whenthe Indian population crossed 120 crore, the popula-tion in Dharwad-Hubli was close to 12 lakh, a thou-sandth part of the total. Since Independence, numeri-cally, the town has shown a lot higher growth thantowns smaller than it and a growth much smaller thanthe towns larger than it. Dharwad has merged withHubli, which lies at a distance of 20-odd kilometres tothe south. To its north, at a distance of 20 odd-km, isKittur, which is fast moving to become an extensionof Dharwad. In a couple of decades, the three togeth-er are likely to have a population of about 60 lakhspread over an area 80 km long, 25 km wide, and a to-tal of 2,000 sq km. The emerging Dharwad will thenbe about 250th part of India.

This rhythm of its growth is in tune with growthpatterns elsewhere in India. This microcosm of Indiastands on a rock-system named the �Dharwad RockSystem� by geologists that came into existence 180crore years ago. Homo sapiens have dwelt here forseveral millennia and agriculture has been practised inthe region for at least six millennia. It developed itsown traditions of weaving and silver-work during thefirst millennium. Over the last fifteen centuries, Dhar-wad has seen a number of rulers and dynasties emerg-ing and declining, bringing with them new culturalpractices and styles of architecture. They include theBadami and Kalyan Chalukyas, the Rashtrakutas, theBahmani sultans, the Vijayanagara kings, Adil Shah,the Marathas, Hyder Ali and the British. The resist-ance put up to the imposition of British rule was sig-nificant. Baba Sahib of Nargund and ChennammaRani of Kittur fought tooth and nail to stop the British.Previously, the spread of the Portuguese from Goa,which is to the west of Dharwad, had been success-fully stalled by the people of Dharwad.

During the twelfth century, it participated mostactively in the Lingayat movement of Basava, chal-lenging caste and creed discrimination and gender in-justice. It generated the first move towards bringingall areas speaking Kannada together in the form of aKarnataka state. It gave rise to the most rememberedmovement of farmers in Karnataka since Indepen-dence. It sparked the Kannada language movementand also the freedom of expression movement bywriters. Dharwad has had a wonderful mix ofthinkers, writers, singers and social activists among itscitizens. It also has a remarkable place in India�s lit-erary history, with three Jnanpith laureates to its cred-it: D.R. Bendre, V.K. Gokak and Girish Karnad.

Silent StepsHave you not heard his silent steps?He comes, comes, ever comes. Everymoment and every age, every day andevery night he comes,comes, ever comes.Many a song have Isung in many a moodof mind, but all theirnotes have always pro-claimed, ‘He comes,comes, ever comes.’In the fragrant days of sunny Aprilthrough the forest path he comes,comes, ever comes. In the rainy gloomof July nights on the thundering chari-ot of clouds he comes, comes, evercomes. In sorrow after sorrow it is hissteps that press upon my heart,and it is the golden touch of his feetthat makes my joy to shine...

Imran 's bid to cling to power broughtPak closer to civilian coup

Former Pakistan Prime MinisterImran Khan’s unscrupulous anddesperate attempts to cling on

to power by inciting his followers toprotest and rebellion was equivalentto a civilian coup, said a media re-port.

Khan, who became the first Pak-istani Prime Minister to be oustedthrough a no-confidence motion, hadsaid that he would fight "till the lastball". However, the statement actual-ly meant using every trick, irrespec-tive of how unethical and undemoc-ratic it was, to cling on to power, re-ported Islam Khabar.

Moreover, the former premier re-fused to accept the new reality in thecountry even after his ouster as heopposed Shahbaz Sharif’s candida-ture for the Prime Minister’s post, cit-ing court cases against him, and alsothreatened to resign en masse fromthe National Assembly if the demandwas not met.

Khan’s desperate attempts to stayin power followed by his unceremo-nious exit suggested how he was fol-lowing the former US President Don-ald Trump who too was not ready toaccept his defeat to the current USPresident Joe Biden. Khan, too, in asimilar manner, refused to accept hisouster, alleging collusion betweenhis political opponents and the US totopple his government.

Terming the protests by his fol-lowers as the rejection of the newgovernment by the people, heclaimed that the people of Pakistanhave vowed to fight against the "for-

eign conspiracy" and the "importedgovernment led by crooks".

Imran Khan’s statement regardingPakistan’s "sovereignty and democ-racy" is quite contradictory to the ac-tions he took to retain his power. Thecricketer-turned-politician, who hisopponents have claimed, was chosenby Pakistan’s powerful army madeseveral desperate attempts to retainhis power as reportedly he evenplanned to sack Army Chief GeneralQamar Javed Bajwa. However,Khan’s conspiracy failed since the in-formation about his plan was inter-cepted by intelligence agencies, re-

ported Islam Khabar.Further, there had been repeated

attempts by the Khan-led govern-ment to obstruct the no-trust motion,however, when it could not stop themotion from being tabled in the As-sembly, it colluded with the Presi-dent of Pakistan and the Speaker todissolve the House. This attempt wasalso foiled by Supreme Court as it setaside the rejection of the no-trust mo-tion.

When voting on the motion be-came inevitable, Imran Khan mulledthe idea of imposing martial law inthe country, which would have led to

the suspension of important insti-tutions, including courts, accord-ing to the media outlet, which fur-ther notes his failure in this at-tempt as well.

After all his attempts provedineffective, Khan held his oppo-nents responsible for the politicalturmoil in the country as he al-leged their connivance with theUS to topple the government. Hispraise for India as a "self-respect-ing nation" further suggests thathe doesn’t practise what hepreaches, else he would have fol-lowed the example of IndianPrime Minister Atal Bihari Vaj-payee, who peacefully relin-quished his power twice when hefell short of a required strength inthe country’s Parliament. Vajpay-ee later returned to power with themajority, however, Khan couldnot show the same statesmanship,reported Islam Khabar.

Instead, he refused to acceptthe defeat and threatened to gatherhis supporters out on the streets.

"I will not accept this importedgovernment, I will take to the street.Only people can bring me to powerand I will come back with the help ofthe people," the media outlet quotedhim as saying before voting on theno-confidence motion.

Pakistan, which is not new to amilitary coup as the country had beenunder Army rule for over threedecades, witnessed a civilian coupthis time through Khan’s desperateattempts to remain in power.

Families of Tiananmen massacre victimsawait justice amid Chinese suppression

As Xi Jinping regime inChina tries to erase thememories of the Tianan-

men massacre through constantsuppression and censorship, thevictims of the massacre stillawait justice after over twodecades of the tragic incident,writes Sergio Restelli for InsideOver.

On the night of June 3,1989, China’s military crack-down on students protesting fordemocratic reforms in variousmajor cities across China led toa massacre of reportedly thou-sands of unarmed citizens onTiananmen Square in Beijing,revealing the brutality of thecountry on its own people.

The issue is still taboo inChina where the families of thevictims seeking to commemo-rate the occasion are harassed bythe authorities.

The victims of the massacreare still awaiting justice as theaccountability for the tragedywas never fixed. In a bid to ex-pose the "state-led terror andsuffocation", the families of vic-tims gather at TiananmenSquare every year. "It feels thatthere’s no end in sight. We are allat ages where death can happenany day, and we’d like to see thetruth revealed and justice upheldwhile we are still alive," Restel-

li quoted Yin Min, mother of a19-year old boy killed in the1989 massacre, as saying.

However, justice remainsfar-fetched amid China’s crack-down on the families of the vic-tims. In fact, the Chinese au-thorities detained, questioned,and arrested the families of thevictims and social activists whowere planning to mark the an-niversary of the massacre. Thesesuppression tactics have seen asurge since Xi Jinping took thereins of China in 2013, writesRestelli.

On the 30th anniversary ofthe massacre in 2019, familiesand activists were kept undersurveillance to stop them fromdemonstrating for justice. Ac-cording to Chinese rights ac-tivist Hu Jia, the state securitypolice followed her everywhere,

even during a trek to remotemountains. Moreover, familiesof the victims were followedand their telephones were mon-itored in order to prevent themfrom marking the anniversary orspeaking to journalists.

Further, the members of agroup named ’Tiananmen Moth-ers’ were placed under house ar-rest ahead of the 1989 move-ment’s anniversary. "I askedthem what date they would beleaving on, and they said theydidn’t know... Human rights vio-lations are so common in Chi-na," said Zhang Xianling, wholost her son in the massacre. In aletter published in 2016, asmany as 131 ’Tiananmen Moth-ers’ recounted their ordeal whileseeking justice as they said thatthey were subjected to constantharassment, intimidation.

US likely to announce USD 750 mlnnew military aid for Ukraine

The United States is likely to an-nounce a new military aid pack-age worth USD 750 million for

Ukraine amid the ongoing war in thecountry, said a media report citing USofficials. US President Joe Biden’s ad-ministration is set to expand the scopeof weapons it is providing to Ukrainewith the Pentagon looking to transfer arange of sophisticated equipment in-cluding armoured Humvees, The Wash-ington Post reported citing the officials.

According to the officials, the pre-liminary plans circulating among gov-ernment officials and lawmakers inWashington included howitzer cannons,coastal defence drones and protectivesuits to safeguard personnel in the eventof a chemical, biological or nuclear at-tack, however, it is not certain if allthese items will be included in the final

package. Notably, the new packagecomes on top of over USD 1.7 billion ofassistance provided to Ukraine by theUS since Russia launched its militaryoperation on February 24. Meanwhile,Pentagon Spokesman John Kirby in-formed that Ukrainian defence ministerOleksii Reznikov spoke with US De-fense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Tues-day. The discussion was part of a "con-stant dialogue and conversation" be-tween the two officials and focused inpart on the weapons and other assis-tance being provided to Ukraine, ac-cording to The Washington Post. OnFebruary 24, Russia launched a "specialmilitary operation" in Ukraine, whichthe West has termed an unprovokedwar. As a result of this, the Westerncountries have imposed several crip-pling sanctions on Moscow.

PMFBY-Every cloud has silver liningKOLLI N RAOSENIOR ADVISOR, IRICBS

Governments can use crop insur-ance to stabilize farm incomeover time, assist farmers when

agriculture production is adversely im-pacted by a catastrophe, and improvefarmers’ creditworthiness. In addition,government-subsidized crop insuranceprogrammes smooth government budg-ets across years by subsidizing premi-ums up front, leaving claims to insurers.

Natural disasters such as droughtsand floods pose a great threat to agricul-ture in India, and financial arrangements(such as crop insurance) can play a keyrole in relieving fiscal pressure on gov-ernment and farmers. Catastrophicevents cause distress to many farmers.Without crop insurance, such distressfulevents could easily lead to income loss,inability to repay loans, and in the mostextreme of cases, farmer suicide. Cropinsurance in India has evolved to be-

come more comprehensive and wide-spread since the 1970s, when it coveredonly select areas and crops. In consulta-tion with stakeholders, government de-cides how to design the most compre-hensive and effective program, address-ing issues along the way.

Pradhan Mantri FasalBima Yojana(PMFBY) replaced existing claim sub-sidy-based models in 2016. PMFBY isone of a number of government initia-tives that provide farmers with somelevel of security when faced with riskyand uncertain situations.

Despite billions in premium subsi-dies every year globally, stakeholdersare still unhappy. There is no perfectcrop insurance scheme, and PMFBY isno exception. The criticism is true tosome extent, but not everything. There isan important point to note, the govern-ment is taking feedback regularly andmaking changes as needed in key areasof dissatisfaction. It’s a continuousprocess. Although some states and in-

surers have pulled out of the scheme,still, its success is far from ordinary.

Here are some salient features andachievements that will help readers un-derstand success:

Protection value: In the pre-PMF-BY era, the average sum insured perhectare was Rs 16,388, which increasedto Rs 44,829 by 2020-21, providing ad-equate insurance coverage.

National Crop Insurance Portal(NCIP) - a centralized IT platform is de-veloped linking the Central Governmentwith all States and UTs, all participatingInsurance Companies, 170,000 bankbranches, and a network of 44,000Common Service Centers (CSC) to en-sure ease of enrolment of non-loaneefarmers, better administration and coor-dination amongst all stakeholders. Ascompared to the pre-PMFBY period,when farmers had to line up at bankbranches to enrol, often requiring multi-ple visits, this is a huge convenience.Crop yield estimation utilizes technolo-

gy both to audit the results of crop cut-ting experiments (CCEs) with CCEApp,and to reduce the number of CCEs byusing smart sampling techniques.

Farmer’s Direct Credit: PMFBY re-mits claims directly to farmer’s bank ac-counts. On average over 1/3rdof all in-sured farmers receive compensation, alarge operation managed effectively, al-lowing farmers to receive compensationquickly. This also eliminates malprac-tice. Overall Claim Ratio: The claim ra-tio for the period 2016-17 to 2019-20was 88.6%, by no means a modest fig-ure. Including the additional cost of in-surers and reinsurers, the industry hasalmost a 100% combined ratio. Grossclaim ratio of 88.6% translates to 540%on farmers’ share of premium. Compen-sation for Key events: Since 2016, theweather has adversely affected nearlyevery state at least once, and farmers re-ceived decent compensation duringthese events. The scheme’s ability toprotect farmers from extremely adverse

weather events in Tamil Nadu, Maha-rashtra, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh,Chhattisgarh, etc. shows its worth.

Timely payment for losses: The keytakeaway of insurance is timely pay-ment. PMFBY included guidelines forthe timely processing and settlement ofclaims (subject to subsidy) throughpenalties for delays. Although not per-fect, it improved timeliness.

Index ’plus’ Insurance: PMFBYcombines yield index and indemnity in-surance. Yield index captures wide-spread calamities, while individual farmloss assessments cover localized calami-ties. PMFBY has captured and handledlosses due to sporadic events over thepast few years. Maharashtra, Haryana,Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh are testamentsto the localized losses recovered throughPMFBY. It doesn’t mean all is wellwith PMFBY. In spite of the Govern-ment of India taking feedback and im-plementing changes as necessary, somestates remain concerned about (i) high

premium rates for certain crops and (ii)a premium subsidy cap on the CentralGovernment’s share that adds to the fi-nancial burden of the state. Perceptionof high premiums has led some states todemand a portion of premium refundduring normal crop years.

There may be a solution to theabove concerns by (i) changing thethreshold yield calculation method (ii)giving greater weight to technology-based yields and (iii) establishing amechanism for a fair profit sharingarrangement between states and insur-ers.

Threshold yield calculation is basedon average yield, which is currentlybased on the last seven years after elim-inating two of the lowest yields. A morebalanced calculation can be achieved byexcluding one highest yield and onelowest yield (Olympic average). Ac-cording to this calculation applied tomajor Kharif crops in Gujarat, premiumrates are dropping by about 20 percent.
