Hmar tribals threatened to impose indefinite strike along NH-53

Hmarkhawlien, July 27, 2011: In a joint press statement issued today by the Hmar National Union (Assam), Hmar Students’ Association (Barak Valley, Assam), and Hmar Inpui (Hmar Supreme House), Barak Valley Region in connection with the arrest and illegal detention of Mr. Ngursunthang on July 26, 2011 by the Assam police, the organisations condemned the systematic victimization, harassment and repeated attempts to blame the Hmar tribals for the killing of Babul Rongmei, Chairman of the Barak Valley Hill Tribes Development Council (BVHTDC). Ngursungthang is the former chairman of BVHTDC.
Babul Rongmei was shot dead by three unidentified assailants in his drawing room at his Silchar residence on July 10, 2011. One of the assailants was lynched by the crowd while two of his accomplices escaped.
In the joint press statement, the Hmar organisations also stated that the banned NSCN/GPRN (K) already owned the responsibility for the killing of Babul Rongmei and also declared the name of the slain assailant and his rank in the proscribed outfit.
The NSCN/GPRN (K) (Zeliangrong Region) in its press release on July 12, 2011 took responsibility for giving capital punishment to Babul Rongmei, and stated that the operation was launched in the interest of the Zeliangrong Nagas by the Demo team of Silchar town under the command of lieutenant Stenhawk.
The arrested former chairman of BVHTDC Ngursunthang also denied his alleged involvement in the killing and termed it as baseless, motivated and a conspiracy to malign him and tarnish his image before the public and demanded a high level inquiry, preferably by CBI, to investigate the case so that the truth was revealed before all.
Terming the repeated attempt of the police to blame of the killing of Babul Rongmei on the Hmar tribals as reprehensible and devoid of any justice, the Hmar organisations demanded the immediate and unconditional release of Ngursunthang, failure of which they threatened to undertake demonstration and impose indefinite strike along the NH-53 from July 28, 2011.

KOHIMA, Jul 27 (NEPS): The Government of India has been seriously working by consulting various agencies to take a “decision” on the “latest development” that has arisen out of the impeachment of SS Khalpang, Chairman of NSCN (Khaplang) and subsequent expulsion of N Kitovi Zhimomi and others from the organization, Maj Gen (Retd) Eppen Jacob Kochekkan, Chairman of the Cease Fire Monitoring Group (CFMG) told NEPS here on July 27.
While denying that the Government of India remained silent on the recent unwanted development following the impeachment of Khaplang from the group, the CFMG Chairman said, “The Government of India needs some time to study that development and do consultation process before taking any decision.”
“And till such time the Government of India takes a decision, the status quo must be maintained,” he said. “That means whatever arrangements were there with the undivided NSCN (K) will continue to be followed.”
He said, “Hopefully, the Government of India will take a decision within this week and convey the same to the groups.”
Asked whether the Government of India had finalized with which group the ceasefire would be maintained, Maj Gen Kochekkan said it was for the Government of India to take decision.
He also said arrangement of escorts for N Kitovi Zhimomi as General Secretary of the undivided NSCN (K) would continue as and when such arrangement was sought and also those ID Card holders would enjoy the same. “This status quo must be maintained till such time the Government of India takes a decision,” he said.
He also clarified that when Kitovi went to Mon after Khaplang was impeached on July 7 and before his expulsion that came on July 12. So between these periods, he sought escorts and they were provided to him, the CFMG Chairman explained. “His movement to Mon took place before 12 July and after 7 July,” he added.
Maj Gen Kochekkan said that he was keeping in touch with leaders of both groups and told them that “Under any circumstances, peace should not be disturbed. Because people want peace and they deserve it.”
Stating that his main job as Chairman of CFMG was to help and strengthen the “peace process,” Maj Gen Kochekkan said his greatest happiness would come in his life “when the people celebrate peace.”

Hepatitis – “The silent assassin”

By: Dr. P. Narendra, MD (Medicine)

Hepatitis B and C affects one in every twelve people and kill one million people every year. World Hepatitis, Day, observed on July 28, aims to raise global awareness of hepatitis B and hepatitis C and encourage prevention, diagnosis and treatment. It was launched by the World Hepatitis Alliance in 2008. In May 2010, the World Health Assembly passed a resolution on virai hepatitis which, together with viral commitments on prevention, treatment and patient care, made World Hepatitis Day an official WHO awareness day. The 2011 theme for World

Hepatitis Day is “This is hepatitis …… Know it. Confront it. Hepatitis affects
everyone, everywhere.” This is an opportunity to raise awareness and improve disease prevention and improve access to diagnostic testing and treatment.

Hepatitis is an inflammatory disease with a variety of causes. Among the most important causes are the hepatitis viruses; hepatitis A virus (HAV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), the HBV associated delta agent or hepatitis D virus (HDV) and hepatitis E virus (HEV). All of these five viruses can cause acute hepatitis. Blood borne types (HBV, HCV and HDV) can cause asymptomatic and unapparent to fulminant and fatal acute infections common to all types, on the one hand, and from subclinical persistent infections to rapidly progressive liver disease with cirrhosis and even hepatocellular carcinoma. Among the important non viral causes are alcohol, autoimmune diseases and drugs.

Hapatitis B and C can be transmitted by transfusion of blood products, other percutaneous routes such as injection drug use. In addition, these viruses can be transmitted by occupational exposure to blood and inadequately sterilized medical instruments, unhygienic tattooing practices. Hepatitis B can also be transmitted via body fluids – most notably semen and saliva and can also be transmitted from mother to child at birth.

Persons at risk for hepatitis B and C are those with multiple sexual partners, intravenous drug users, healthcare professionals, those patients on hemodialysis and haemophiliacs receiving blood products.

Acute viral hepatitis usually cause constitutional symptoms of anorexia, nausea and vomiting, fatigue, malaise, arthralgias, myalgias, fever and headache among others and may precede the onset of jaundice by 1 – 2 weeks. Dark urine and clay colored stools may be noticed by the patients from 1-5 days before the onset of clinical jaundice i.e. the yellowish discoloration of skin and conjunctiva.

Chronic hepatitis B develops in approximately 10% of those affected with this virus, while 50 to 70% of those affected with hepatitis C develop chronic hepatitis. These patients with chronic jnfection are at risk of developing progressive liver injury, cirrhosis of the liver and hepatocellular carcinoma (cancer). Chronic hepatitis may be asymptomatic or have minimal symptoms until features of liver failure develop.

These viral infections can be detected by various blood tests, many of which are rapid and cost effective. Those who are at risk or have been inadvertently exposed should avail to these tests. An effective vaccine exists for hepatitis B and India has a policy of universal vaccination for hepatitis B virus. No vaccine exists at present for hepatitis C virus. Both these infections can be prevented to a large extent by avoiding high risk behavior, such as using condoms, voluntary exclusion from donation of blood by those with high risk behavior, avoiding professional blood donors at blood banks and following universal precautions by health care professionals.

Treatment of acute hepatitis is usually supportive and in certain groups of patients, treatment with Interferon alpha and antivirals can be considered. Chronic hepatitis B can be treated effectively with antivirals. Chronic hepatitis C is treated with a combination of pegylated Interferon alpha and ribavirin with acceptable responses.

In conclusion, hepatitis B and C are “silent assassins” which require detection and appropriate management. Thus detection with recommended tests is the most important first step in tackling this global menace of hepatitis.
