Media should handle Guwahati molestation case sensitively, advises Ambika

Chandigarh, July 14 (ANI): Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni on Saturday said that the media should sensitively handle the Guwahati molestation case.
Soni said that while media should make people aware about such incidents, care should be taken not to hurt the feelings of the victims.
“As far the Guwahati incident and other such unfortunate incidents in various parts of the country are concerned, I feel that media should handle such issues sensitively, and consider the sensitivities of the victims of such incidents. The role of the media is very important to make people aware and bring their attention towards such issues,” she said.
Soni, who was speaking to the media in Chandigarh, also cleared the air on the reports on India’s Parliament House office shifting to a new building for repair.
She denied the reports and said that renovation work has been an on going process in the building.
“I know that the Parliament House building goes through repairs, renovations and painting on a regular basis. When the Parliament is not in session, such works are undertaken, as the footfalls are less. However, I am not aware of anything on shifting the offices from the building,” she said.
Speaking on recent reports on India considering reversing ban on some of the Pakistan channels, Soni said that such decisions could only be taken after a high-level bilateral talks.
During his recent visit to India, Pakistan Foreign Secretary Jalil Abbas Jilani pressed upon India to allow transmission of satellite TV channels on Indian television.
Soni, however, said that India is beefing up transmitters along the border so that the signals are not jammed and Pakistan channels do not overrule Indian television.
“We are strengthening our transmitters in our border areas. We are repairing them and providing additional strength as required so that no one can jam our signals. We will not allow channels from other countries to override our television,” she said.

KMHR, BJP support ILP movement

Imphal, July 14: Kuki Movement for Human Rights (KMHR) said on Saturday that it is a great relief for all indigenous people in Manipur and all the regions covered by Inner Line Permit (ILP) system that the state Legislative Assembly has unanimously voted for early introduction of ILP in Manipur.

Imphal, July 14: Kuki Movement for Human Rights (KMHR) said on Saturday that it is a great relief for all indigenous people in Manipur and all the regions covered by Inner Line Permit (ILP) system that the state Legislative Assembly has unanimously voted for early introduction of ILP in Manipur.
The Kuki Inpi had vehemently opposed the vacation of ILP which would certainly cause disturbances to peace and social harmony in the state so a memorandum was submitted to the Indian Prime Minister in this regard during his visit to Imphal for inauguration of the Capitol Project on December 2, 2011, KMHR said .
Making an urgent appeal to the state Chief Minister, KMHR said introduction of ILP system without fail can prevent further disruption on public peace and social harmony as well as violation of human rights, adding that implementation of ILP in the state is in the hand of the present Ministry.
The Opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) said on Saturday introduction of Inner Line Permit (ILP) system in the state of Manipur has nothing to do with the Parliament or the state assembly but Chief Minister O Ibobi can initiate to implement it if he is willing to do so.
Addressing a press conference at the office of BJP Manipur Pradesh, Tapir Gao, National General Secretary, BJP in-charge of Manipur made it clear that the Parliament and Manipur Legislative Assembly have no business in introducing ILP in the state of Manipur.
Tapir was here in a two-day visit mainly to garner support for the presidential candidate PA Sangma. The BJP leader also said BJP appeals particularly to the three MPs from Manipur to give conscientious vote for Sangma who is the only candidate representing the entire Northeast in the July 19 presidential election.
Former Lok Sabha Speaker P.A Sangma is an Opposition backed candidate in the election of the top post of the country.
P Chandrasekhar Rao, Secretary, Zonal Organization, North East state BJP, who was also speaking at the press conference, said foreigners, especially Muslims coming from countries like Myanmar and Bangladesh to Manipur have posed a serious threat to the local people.
Hitting back on Chief Minister Ibobi’s remark that state BJP cannot raise its voice in Parliament, Manipur Pradesh BJP president Sh Shantikumar, who was flanked by Tapir and Rao, said the BJP shouts both in Parliament and in the state in many important issues of the state.

Centre to conserve gene opened at Hengbung

Mail News Service Imphal, July 14: Centre for Orchid Gene Conservation of the Eastern Himalayan region was inaugurated today at Hengbung, Senapati district about 55 km from Imphal by Dr T Ramasami, Secretary, Department of Science and Technology, Government of India.

Imphal, July 14: Centre for Orchid Gene Conservation of the Eastern Himalayan region was inaugurated today at Hengbung, Senapati district about 55 km from Imphal by Dr T Ramasami, Secretary, Department of Science and Technology, Government of India.
Even though there are opinions about disparity in development process in the north east compared to the rest of the country, nature treats all equally. The rich biodiversity is the gift of nature and people of the region should work hard to make the endeavour to popularize orchid successful.
Dr S N Puri, VC of Central Agricultural University, Imphal said in the north east we find all sort of weather found throughout the world hence it has a rich biodiversity.
Haokholet Kipgen, former MLA said orchids are globally adored for their exceeding beautiful and long lasting flowers, having contributed significantly to the development of international trade in cut flowers and potted plants. They are also therapeutically important and used to cure a variety of human ailments. Orchids are grown as cash crop in several countries, adding to the growth of their economics.
India is rich in orchid resource; the Indian Himalayan Region alone is home to nearly one thousand species. Full realization of their economic potential has, however, remained abysmally slow due to lack of awareness about these plant and non availability of suitable planting material. Additionally the natural population in the large number of species are also progressively on decline because of natural calamities (landslips, forest fires) and unregulated habitat destruction (forest fallings, jhuming) and commercial collection pressures. Several species are being illegally sent across the borders, for example: at Manipur border with Myanmar a kilo of therapeutic orchid is sold for Rs. 300-600. This in China, under eastern medicinal system, fetches $15000 per kilo.
Prof SP Vij said about 286 species were reported in Manipur and during a recent survey new species not found elsewhere in the country were found and it is estimated that about 500 species will be found when the whole state is scanned. Orchid is extremely useful and most medicines have extracts from orchids and as the gene conservation centre is established, the gene of all the orchids found in the region will be preserved so that the future generation can know that such orchids used to grow. Most orchids are endangered due to human greed and forestation he said.
