IMPHAL, March 30: The State Government implemented schemes worth crores for planting trees in the Imphal areas but unfortunately none of plants are seen today said Oinam Malesh President BJYM Manipur Pradesh.
Speaking in a one day political conference cum online membership drive held at the Leimakhong are under Saitu Constituency today, he said that the State Government had expended crores for planting trees in the Imphal area in last few years but none of the trees are seen growing properly.
He further said that if the plants are not maintained properly or money meant for theri upkeep pocketed by the authorities, this is the result.
He called for envisaging alternative means for their sustainable life in the hills. The hills people can stop deforestation in the hills on if this is successful, he said.
The only way to make a change in this regards is to elect the BJP in the forthcoming ADC election he said.
If the BJP sweeps the upcoming ADC election there will be a change in the hill districts soon, he promised.
After the ADC election, there will be the Assembly election in 2017 he said adding, if the BJP emerge successful, peace will return to the Northeast region Malesh said.
Basanta vice-president BJYM Manipur Pradesh said that hill people mistook the BJP party as anti-Christen party but after Narendra Modi became Prime Minister the hill people have come to realise this is only Congress propaganda and totally false.

The All Manipur College Teachers Association, AMCTA, has now substantiated its charges against three college principals appointed by the government. It furnished the answer to its RTI petition on the
The All Manipur College Teachers Association, AMCTA, has now substantiated its charges against three college principals appointed by the government. It furnished the answer to its RTI petition on the matter to the media recently. The charges against two of the principals, though serious, still have an element of subjectivism. The third however is simply atrocious and an affront on the entire society. The first allegations for instance is a charge that the particular academic should not have received 30 point on the Academic Performance Index, API, ranking, as he is deemed to have, for 30 API points can only be awarded to a research work which has resulted in a patented innovation. It is well known patent regime in India is virtually non-existent. Somebody makes a technological or intellectual breakthrough, and the next day thousands would be using them as if it was their own without even acknowledging the person who made the breakthrough, and not be worried about the law at all. Since few care about patents, it probably is easy to get one, and probably as has happened in other fields, such as book publishing, patents too have become a commercialised commodity for academics to purchase and get their academic scores to clear their promotion lines. The worths of the books or the patents against more neutral scales, such the contribution they make to society or the appreciation they receive from peers and markets, have therefore been thrown into the winds. Sure enough, by the economic logic of demand generating supply, there are today vendors catering to the academic`™s need for published books and, it does seem, patents, flooding the market with absolute trash. The second charge against another academic is that the certificate he received from the ex-director of Art & Culture, for his research project on applications of physical methods in studies of ancient iron smelting culture of Manipur, has no memo number or date of issue. The implication is, the certificate is arbitrary, and has not shown any objective criteria for its award.
Both these are bad enough, but there is a subjective element in the allegations. The interrogation is more of the system which has left rooms for manipulation, and not as much of the individuals who used these rooms. In other words, if the system is reformed, the individuals seeking unfair credits will have no means of doing so. Quite interestingly however, the third allegation of AMCTA has proven it otherwise. The academic in question, received his requisite API points for promotion as principal by producing two Ph.Ds, but from a private university which had been banned for academic fraudulence. It had also subsequently been derecognized by the Manipur Government. The said university, Chandra Mohan Jha University, Shillong, in June last year was hauled up for selling more than 4000 Ph.Ds to candidates for anywhere between Rs. 2 to 4 lakhs, and all Ph.Ds from the university were declared invalid. It is unlikely these 4000 and more Ph.Ds were sold to young bright scholars out to research, discover and cover new grounds in their fields of academic specialisations. The buyers probably were aging desperate clueless academics, already in the teaching profession but debarred from further promotions for the lack of a Ph.D degree.
It is shameful that the government should have turned a blind eye to something which it had itself derecognized in the midst of the scandal. But this particular case may just be the proverbial tip of the iceberg. Hence the job now is to weed out all holding such certificates from the decaying higher education system in Manipur. The AMCTA, which has so enthusiastically declared its commitment to promotion of quality education in the state can take the initiative in this project. But then, this might boomerang, and the AMCTA may discover its own members benefitting from these fake degrees from the CMJ University, Shillong. The state`™s vocal students unions, with their known prowess of militantly taking up issues related to quality education to the streets, should not be silent on the matter either. But most importantly, the government must have the matter probed independently either by a judicial committee or the CBI. If anybody is found having benefited with service promotions from these fake Ph.D degrees, they must be immediately demoted. If these include monetary benefits fraudulently extracted from the state`™s hard pressed exchequer, they must be made to return the amounts. If there are more befitting penalties under the law, they should be subjected to them. The issue at stake is quality higher education in the state which today is in an advanced stage of decay, and if left untended, would most likely rot beyond salvage.

IMPHAL, March 30: The Deputy Chief Minister and MPCC president, Gaikhangam said there are indications anti-social elements are preparing to use force to hijack the results of the upcoming ADC
IMPHAL, March 30: The Deputy Chief Minister and MPCC president, Gaikhangam said there are indications anti-social elements are preparing to use force to hijack the results of the upcoming ADC election results, but if the election is fought free and fair, democratically and on political issues only, all 140 seats of the six ADCs can be retained by the Congress.
While interacting with the media in the Congress president`™s office, at the Congress Bhawan this evening, he said that ADC election which is going to held on May 30 is a normal procedure as the first term is due to end.
We hope that the State Election Commission will officially publishing the electoral roll within April and target to conduct the May smoothly. We also hope result will be declared by the first week of June, he said.
Highlighting some of his party`™s strategy for the ensuing ADC election, he said the Congress party will fight all the seats. If there are no disturbances from anti social elements and free and fair election results, Congress can secure all seats again as in the last election in 2011, he said.
This time Congress party will fight alone, he said.
There some input that the NSCN-IM brothers are going to support some candidates with the use of force, seriously limiting the public in choosing their leaders, he said. He appealed to all organisations and individuals to ensure a free and fair election in the public interest.
`Using physical force to coerce voters by any party will tarnish the worth of ADC election,` he said.
He is wary that the NPF can produce proxy candidates in this election taking the support of dictatorial forces in hill areas. If the party has honourable objective, vision and ideology, the party must fight the election free and fair, and allow the public to make their own free choices, he said.
He said whereas the UNC has appealed to people not to vote in the ADC election, it is uncertain what the NPF is preparing to do just as yet, he said.
Gaikhangam further said that notification for inviting Congress candidates for all six districts will be out on April 6.

20150330-Lean-Startup-workshop-Manipur
Dr. S. Keshorjit Singh, Faculty Member, MIMS, M.U, while delivering his speech as resource person pointed out that disturbing state of law and orders, attitude of state and non state players towards businessmen, bad debts from customers, government policy, loss of market share, logistics and transportation bottlenecks are some of the challenges faced by Start-up Entrepreneurs in Manipur. Every entrepreneur needs to experience failures many times to climb the ladder of success, he said.
Today entrepreneurs are occupying the central role in all economic activities and development of a region or of a country. This is because of entrepreneurial energy, creativity and motivation that trigger the production and sale of new products and services. Entrepreneurship has assumed super importance for accelerating economic growth both in developed and developing countries. It promotes capital formation and creates wealth in the country. It reduces unemployment and poverty and it’s a pathway to prosperity. So, it is hope and dreams of millions of individuals around the world to be entrepreneur, he said.
Starting a business and becoming an entrepreneur is both exciting and challenging. Exciting because he will become a boss, achieve financial independence, enjoy creative freedom, use his skills and knowledge and so on, he observed.
Roshnikumar Yambem, Managing Director Globizs Web Solutions Pvt Ltd said that every entrepreneur should learn ‘failed fast, succeed fast’. A business cannot succeed without experiencing failures in the initial stage. Success comes only after the failures are coped up with. Budding entrepreneur, before launching their product, should have a clear cut long vision, good business plan and the scope of customers who would use the product. Without customers, every business flops, he added.
Stating that entrepreneurs should study the problems, customer target etc. before initiating a business, he said that the lean startup event will be instrumental in reducing risk factors involved in starting a business venture.
The Lean Startup event was organized with support from the sponsoring Partners like Marina Spring, Shija Hospitals, Babina Diagnostics, FRANCHISE India, Hotel Classic, Imphal, Globizs Web Solutions, HVS Constructions Materials Pvt.
