Press Release

GLOBAL DAY OF ACTION ON MILITARY SPENDING
Cut Military Spending, Fund Human Need

On April 17, 2012, people all over the world will join together for the second Global Day of Action on Military Spending. We urge you to join us.The current economic crisis has put pressure on the world’s governments to reduce spending on critical human needs: confronting climate change, battling deadly diseases, achieving the Millennium Development Goals. But apart from a few courageous exceptions, national governments continue to waste enormous resources on the military. Figures from the 2011 Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) annual report show that the world’s governments are spending more than ever on the military: $1,630 billion per year – and rising. If spent differently, this money would go a long way to resolving the real challenges facing our planet. In June 2012 the world’s leaders and thousands of civil society activists will meet in Rio de Janeiro for the Rio+20 Earth Summit to chart a transition to a sustainable, green society with jobs and opportunities for all. Our Global Day, happening just two months before Rio, is an ideal chance to remind the world that we can’t achieve this goal without freeing up the money and brainpower wasted on military activities.

We people in India are joining friends in more than 35 countries to participate in the Global Day of Action on Military Spending. On this day, people around the world will demand that their governments to reduce military spending and devote those precious resources to pressing human needs. They will send a message that $1.5 trillion is too much.

Nobody can dispute that money spent on arms, in a developing economy, must be at the expense of more pressing needs of social and infrastructure development. Yet, defence is a prime responsibility of the state and maintaining an autonomous capability to defend a nation’s sovereignty and enhance its national interests are the principal responsibilities of governments. Developing nations like India continue to be the primary importers of arms. Between 2000 and 2007 India ranked world’s second largest arms importer accounting for 7.5 percent of all major weapons transfers. Now in 2012, India has now emerged as the largest arms importer in the world, overtaking China. India accounted for 9% of all international arms imports between 2006-2011, making it the world`s largest weapons importer.

The most important social aspect is human security which is often threatened by the insecurity caused by poverty. When people are dying of poverty, can security and arms provide them with a basic square meal? In a country where poverty is rampant and where there is great deal to be done in the fields of health and education, we cannot be spending so much on defence. Our battle is against starvation and deprivation, which cannot be fought with guns and missiles. We call upon government of India and South Asia to:

1. To cut military expenditure and the saved fund to be deployed towards combating and providing social security.

2. To support the United Nations Process for an international Arms Trade Treaty

3. Call upon governments in South Asia to support the Mine Ban Treaty and the Convention on Cluster Munitions.

3. Take the lead in international humanitarian disarmament which was the pillar of India’s Foreign Policy in 1950s and 1960s

4. Inclusion of women in peace, security and disarmament issues

On 17 April 2012 we the members of Control Arms Foundation of India are organizing an awareness programme at Dilli Hatt, INA market, where fliers will be distributed to the public. Later we are submitting a memorandum to Prime Minister and also members of Parliamentary Standing Committee on Defence.

MTPRM alleges wrong reservation policy at RIMS

Mail News Service Imphal, Apr 17: The Movement for Tribal People’s Rights Manipur (MTPRM) had demanded rectification of reservation norms in recruitment process and not to declare the DPC result until and unless rectification is done regarding reserving of only 7.5 percent instead of 34 percent for Scheduled Tribes for recruitment of various posts under […]

Mail News Service
Imphal, Apr 17: The Movement for Tribal People’s Rights Manipur (MTPRM) had demanded rectification of reservation norms in recruitment process and not to declare the DPC result until and unless rectification is done regarding reserving of only 7.5 percent instead of 34 percent for Scheduled Tribes for recruitment of
various posts under Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) . A memorandum was submitted to the Chief Minister of Manipur who is the Vice – President of RIMS also similar copy submitted to Director, RIMS on the 3rd of this month. But without rectifying the anomaly the RIMS authority had declared the DPC results. The RIMS authority declaring the DPC results without following the reservation norms issued by the Central Govt is a total violation which is amounts to ignoring the existent of Scheduled Tribes population in Manipur and also disrespect of the rule formulated by the Central Govt, President. S Ramhaoleng today said in a press statement.
There is a clear reservation norms issued vide O.M No.36012/22/1993-Estt.(SCT) Dt.29/121 1993 by the Department of Personnel & Training, Govt of India for different States where Scheduled Tribes population are existent by mentioning different reservation percentage based on Scheduled Tribes population in their respective states and that 27 percent for Scheduled Tribes is reserved for Manipur in respect of direct recruitment to group C and D posts. With the increased of Scheduled Tribes population
in Manipur and in other States the Central Govt vide O.M No.36017/1 /2004-Estt (Res), dated 5th July, 2005 issued by Department of Personnel & Training had revised the reservation norms for Scheduled Tribes based on 2001 census which now stands at 34 percent reserved in Manipur for recruitment to group C and D posts. Inspite of this facts and rule of the Central Govt, the Govt of Manipur violated the reservation norms determined by Central govt for Scheduled Tribes in Manipur.
The RIMS authority reserving only 7.5 percent for Scheduled Tribes in the recently held DPC for recruitment of 71 nos of Staff Nurse and 11 nos. Of LDC instead of 34 percent in pursuance to the reservation norms determined by the Central Govt for Manipur is taken by the MTPRM as a plan of the Manipur Govt to keep the Scheduled Tribes economically backward and to render the Scheduled Tribes minority in govt employment representation. The MTPRM has appealed the State Govt in various occasions on various issues in the past but nothing effective mechanism have been worked out by the Manipur Govt as such having no option the MTPRM has submitted a Memorandum to Union Minister, Health and Family Welfare highlighting such dealings committed towards the tribal people of
Manipur. The MTPRM will further expose the ill treatment meted out to the tribal people by the State Govt and to get justice.

Dimapur, April 17 NNN: In a rebuttal to the NSCN-IM’s various statements, Inspector General of Assam Rifles (North) based in Nagaland’s capital Kohima said today that the Cease Fire Ground Rules do not permit keeping of arms, ammunition, explosives and grenades in the residence of NSCN faction members houses.
The PRO of IGAR (North), Kohima said, “Only card holders authorized specifically by the Cease Fire Monitoring Board (CFMB) are permitted to keep weapons for their protection. The captured weapons were being used to enforce extortion by the group. The article published by NSCN (IM) on April 10 for the operation carried out on April 8 is certainly an afterthought and a propaganda campaign launched by vested interests against the successful operations carried out by Assam Rifles in ensuring implementation of the Cease Fire Ground Rules.
The Assam Rifles stands by its commitment as ‘ Friends of the Hill People’ to ensure weapon and extortion free society and a peaceful environment in Nagaland.”
A serious allegation was made against joint operation conducted by 6 Assam Rifles and 164 Inf Bn TA (NAGA) at Tizit on April 8 and published in a newspaper on April 10, according to the PRO of IGAR (North).
It then stated that the operations were launched on receipt of specific intelligence about the concealment of huge quantity of warlike stores in the house of Mr Manpoh Konyak, Tatar, NSCN (IM).
“Despite denial by the occupants of the house of any warlike stores, careful search of the house in presence of two police personnel (accompanying the troops) resulted in recovery of one point 22 pistol (country made) with magazine, one pt 32 Pistol (Made in USA) with magazine, one pt 303 Rifle, one 12 bore single barrel rifle, one G-3 Rifle (UNSV), three pt 303 magazines, 117 assorted rounds of ammunitions, 3 feet of safety fuse, three pairs of combat uniforms, one grenade, 22 detonators and 15 gelatine sticks,” claimed the Assam Rifles.
