C aught off guard after six people tested positive for the super-infectious UK strain of the coronavirus on Tuesday, the Government has now decided to conduct genome sequencing on all internation- al passengers who were symp- tomatic and tested positive for coronavirus in the last 14 days. The Union Health Ministry has already decided to conduct genome sequencing on 5 per cent of the total Covid positive cases detected daily to check for new variants. Experts feel that the response is too late as it will not be an easy task to trace the 33,000 flyers from the UK who had returned to India during the last one month. “Many of them must have come into contact with their relatives and others. The con- tact tracing is going to be a dif- ficult task,” they said amid reports that many UK returnees in India have either switched off their phone num- bers or are not available at their residences. However, the Government assured that the vaccines under development would also work against the mutated pathogen first reported in the UK. “No need to worry about vaccines. Vaccines will work against the variants detected in the UK and South Africa. There is no evidence that cur- rent vaccines will fail to protect against the new mutant strains,” said Principal Scientific Adviser K VijayRaghavan at a presser here. At the same time, he said, there is a need to reduce trans- mission through physical dis- tancing, follow all public health measures scrupulously, wear masks, follow hand-washing, Covid appropriate behaviour, infection control, amplify test, track, isolate efforts.” The Ministry has so far carried out genome testing of 144 positive Covid samples of which six have been found to be carrying the new variant reported in the UK. Three samples in NIMHANS of Bengaluru, 2 in CCMB, Hyderabad and 1 in NIV, Pune have been detected out of all the 144 samples test- ed. The new variant of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 that causes Covid-19 is believed to be 71 per cent more transmit- table than the other variants, the Hyderabad-based Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) said on Tuesday when India confirmed six cases of the new strain. The leading research insti- tute has underlined the impor- tance to launch an extensive genome surveillance of the virus to assess the extent of the spread of the new virus. “We should also keep an eye on other variants that might emerge independently, as India houses the second largest population infected with this virus, at present,” CCMB Director Dr Rakesh Mishra said as per a news agency. The presence of the new UK variant of the coronavirus has already been reported by Denmark, the Netherlands, Australia, Italy, Sweden, France, Spain, Switzerland, Germany, Canada, Japan, Lebanon and Singapore so far. “The Government was well aware of the mutated virus doing the rounds in several countries. It should have start- ed genome testing of the flyers returning from these mutated affected countries as was being done by other nations. But the Government was either apa- thetic or negligent towards this important measures which it has now decided,” said a doc- tor from a Government hospi- tal who refused to be named. The Government said that all the persons with the new variant have been kept in sin- gle room isolation in designat- ed healthcare facilities by respective State Governments. Continued on Page 11 T he temporary suspension of India-UK flights is likely to be extended beyond December 31. Union Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Tuesday said he expected a slight extension of temporary suspension of passenger flights between India and the UK where a new variant of coron- avirus has been detected. “I foresee a slight extension of temporary suspension of India-UK flights. In the next day or two, we will find out if any additional steps need to be taken, or when we can start eas- ing the current temporary sus- pension,” Puri said while addressing a Press conference. India had last week sus- pended passenger flights to and from the UK between December 23 and 31, after a growing list of countries like Canada, Germany, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Italy did the same due to a more infectious coronavirus variant there. The presence of the new UK vari- ant has already been reported by Denmark, the Netherlands, Australia, Italy, Sweden, and other countries. India, UK have 67 weekly flights operated by four airlines — Air India, Vistara, British Airways and Virgin Atlantic. Almost 2,000-2,500 passen- gers fly in daily on these flights. Continued on Page 11 A few hours ahead of the talks between farmers and Government scheduled for Wednesday, protesting farm unions on Tuesday wrote to the Centre, saying the discussion will only be on the modalities of repealing the three legisla- tions, giving a legal guarantee on the MSP, and on two other issues they proposed earlier this week for a resumption of the dialogue. The Government has invit- ed the protesting farmers for the sixth round of talks on Wednesday. In its letter on Tuesday, the Samyukt Kisan Morcha, which represents 40 farm unions, said the modalities for repealing the three contentious laws and a legal guarantee on the mini- mum support price (MSP) must be part of the agenda for the talks. The Morcha further said the agenda of the meeting should also include amend- ments to be made and notified in the Commission for the Air Quality Management in National Capital Region and Adjoining Areas Ordinance, 2020 to exclude farmers from its penal provisions. Through the letter, the Morcha also formally accepted the Government’s invitation for the dialogue. The letter also stated that withdrawal of the Electricity Amendment Bill 2020 to pro- tect the interests of farmers should also be part of the agenda for the dialogue. The farmers had also writ- ten to the Government on December 26 listing the agen- da for talks. In the letter, the Morcha said that in its December 26 communication to the Government, it had mentioned “changes” by mistakes instead of “withdrawal” of the Electricity Amendment Bill. Meanwhile, also on Tuesday the unions deferred to Thursday their proposed trac- tor march against the con- tentious agriculture laws, so that the rally does not clash with their talks with the Government. Thousands of protesting farmers, mostly from Punjab and Haryana, have been camp- ing at three Delhi border points — Singhu, Ghazipur and Tikri — for the past 31 days, demanding a repeal of three farm laws and legal guarantee for minimum support price. On Monday, farmer lead- ers agreed to the government proposal for holding the next round of talks on the new agricultural laws on December 30, but remained firm on their agenda of scrapping the laws. Continued on Page 11 T he Centre on Tuesday said it has proposed to make airbag mandatory for the pas- senger in the front seat of a vehicle. The step is aimed at improving passenger safety in case of accidents. The Road Transport Ministry has issued a draft notification. The proposed timelines for the implementa- tion of the move is April 1, 2021, for new models and June 1, 2021, for existing models. “In a significant measure to boost passenger safety, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) pro- poses to make it mandatory that an airbag be provided for the passenger seated on the front seat of a vehicle, next to the driver,” the Ministry said in a statement. The addition of a dual front airbags would spell an increase of roughly between 10,000 to 20,000 in the prices of entry-level versions of the car models. The MoRTH has planned to implement this norm for all new models of cars which are manufactured from April 1, 2021, onwards. For the existing units, the date for complying with the new rule is proposed to be June 1, 2021. Previously, the Government had made having an airbag mandatory for the driver’s seat in all cars which came into effect from July 1, 2019. “Comments/ suggestions are solicited from all stake- holders within a month time,” the draft notification by the MoRTH said. The draft notification fur- ther reads, “Vehicles manufac- tured on and after 1st Day of April 2021, in the case of new models, and 1st day of June 2021, in the case of existing models, shall be fitted with airbag for the person occupy- ing the front seat, other than the driver. The requirement for such airbag shall be as per AIS 145...under the Bureau of Indian Standards act, 2016.” “As of now, only the driver’s seat airbag is mandatory for all cars. However, this leaves the passenger in the front seat completely vulnerable to severe injury or even death in case of accidents as they are not pro- tected by the airbag,” said a senior MoRTH official. Continued on Page 11 P oet Laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s Shantiniketan (abode of peace) once again turned into a political theatre less than 10 days after the Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a massive parade at Bolpur in Birbhum district. Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday led an equally impressive road- show attacking Shah and the BJP for importing “fake politics and hate politics” in the State. Calling upon the people to “oust the Bargis (Maratha invaders of 18th century were called thus in Bengal) who have come here to generate fake pol- itics, spread hatred and spark riots,” Mamata said, adding, “they have not only smeared the Viswa Bharati campus which was scarcely politicised in the past but they have also not spared even a Nobel laure- ate and a son of the soil like Amartya Sen.” A time has come when the people of Bengal were tasked with a duty to “oust the Bargis who are soiling our culture and spoiling our lives by splurging money in order to buy not only the people’s representatives but also the voters,” Mamata said. She asked the people to accept the cash offered but not vote for their symbol (lotus) as they are masters of fake and hate politics whose duty is only to spread hatred and ignite riots. Referring to Shah’s rally Mamata said, “There are some parties that organise roadshows where you will find more ban- ners and flags than the people.” “Hours after the Chief Minister’s roadshow TMC strongman and district party president Anubrata Mondal said at least three lakh people had gathered at the Bolpur rally.” Continued on Page 11 A ctor Rajinikanth, who had declared early this month that he would announce the details of his political party on the New Year eve, made a quick volte-face on Tuesday by announcing through social media that he was not launch- ing any political outfit. This means that Tamil Nadu may have to wait for long to see an effective and viable third front to take on the DMK and the AIADMK, the tradi- tional rivals of the State politics for the last 35 years. The State’s thirst to see the emergence of a charismatic leader too remains unquenched. “With a heavy heart, I announce this: Due to health reasons I am not able to enter politics by launching a politi- cal party. Only I know the pain with which I make this announcement,” Rajinikanth said in the statement. “I will continue to serve people without coming to elec- toral politics. I will never hes- itate to speak the truth. I appeal to all my fans and people of Tamil Nadu to accept my deci- sion. Rajini Makkal Mandram will continue to function,” the actor said. He stated that it would not be fair to campaign through social media. If I develop health complications during my cam- paign, it would severely affect those who accompany me in politics, he said. Continued on Page 11 P ierre Cardin, the French designer whose famous name embossed everything from wristwatches to bedsheets after his iconic Space Age styles shot him into the fashion stratosphere in the 1960s, has died, the French Academy of Fine Arts said on Tuesday. He was 98. A licensing maverick, Cardin’s name went on thou- sands of products and in the brands heyday in the 1970s and 80s, while goods bearing his fancy cursive signature were sold at some 100,000 outlets worldwide. That number dwindled dramatically in later years, as his products were increasing- ly regarded as cheaply made and his clothing — which, decades later, remained virtu- ally unchanged from its 60s-era styles — felt laughably dated. Continued on Page 11 Allahabad: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday hit out at previous Governments for delaying the Dedicated Freight Corridor project and ignoring modernisation of rail- ways, and said his Government engaged with stakeholders to speed up works and carried out reforms at all levels. Inaugurating the New Bhaupur-New Khurja section of the Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor (EDFC) via video conferencing, he said the “vibration” and “roar” of Bharat and ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ were clearly heard as the first freight train ran on the Khurja-Bhaupur freight corri- dor. Attacking previous gov- ernment, the prime minister said the project was given per- mission in 2006 but it was only on paper as the then govern- ment lacked the seriousness and urgency with which it had to take it up with the states. “Till 2014 not a single km track of the project was laid and the funds sanctioned could not be spent properly. After 2014 ,it was restarted and offi- cials asked to take it forward and by then the budget had gone up by 11 times”, the prime minister said. The 351-km section, which has been built at a cost of Rs 5,750 crore, will open new avenues for local industries in Uttar Pradesh. The EDFC is 1,840-km- long and extends from Ludhiana in Punjab to Kolkata in West Bengal. Modi also inaugurated the EDFC’s operation centre at Prayagraj and flagged off the first 1.5 km long goods trains. The prime minister said that on coming to power, he personally monitored the pro- ject and held a dialogue with the stakeholders and got new technology as a result of which about 1100 km work will be completed in the next few months. Political apathy not just hampered the freight corridor project but also had a bearing on the entire Railways system, he said adding that earlier the focus was on increasing num- ber of trains for political ben- efit in elections but not on the tracks on which the trains were run as there was no investment on it. There was no seriousness towards modernisation of the rail network, trains were being run on slow speed and the entire network was full of dan- gerous unmanned crossings, he said. “We changed this work culture and thinking after 2014 and ending the separate Railway budget, invested in rail tracks, ended unmanned crossings, focussed on broad- ening and electrification of the network”, he said. The Vande Bharat express, the semi high speed train is now being run, he said, adding that now Indian rails are more secure than before. In the past few years reforms have been carried out at all levels and can be seen, he added. The new freight section will open new vistas of oppor- tunity for local industries such as aluminium industry in Pukhrayan region of Kanpur Dehat, dairy sector of Auraiya, textile production and block printing of Etawah, glassware industry of Firozabad, pottery products of Khurja, asafoetida or ‘heeng’ production of Continued on Page 11 T he India Meteorological Department (IMD) will now provide localised weather forecasts, issue warnings for adverse weather conditions for traffic movement on highways, agriculture, and defence per- sonnel, from its meteorological centre, Leh in Ladakh, having extreme wide-ranging climate and topography. The centre was virtually inaugurated by Minister for Earth Sciences (MoES) Dr Harsh Vardhan. After Itanagar in Arunachal Pradesh, the Leh centre is the second meteoro- logical centre located in the Himalayas. This will also help the defence personnel which have been guarding the frontiers of the entire Ladakh region assid- uously for the last 70 years, to get better prepared to cope with adverse weather conditions amid China standoff at the Line of Control on western sector.

    The total number of peoplewho have recovered fromCovid in the state capitalreached 74,123 on Tuesday.The Covid recovery rate of thedistrict has been good at 95.6percent. Lucknow has main-tained a good recovery ratebecause a large number ofpeople showed less severesymptoms, as has been thetrend across the globe.

    A senior health officialsaid the positivity rate is stillhovering around 2.9 percentthis month. “However, as thecases are coming down acrossthe district, the positivity ratein areas like Gomtinagar,Indiranagar, Chinhat,Alambagh and Aliganj isslightly above average,” hesaid. He pointed out that thenumber of patients who aresevere at the moment is a lit-tle less than 700.

    On whether they are facing

    challenges regarding availabil-ity of beds for severe patients,he said there was a slight prob-lem with ICU beds.

    On Tuesday, 194 personstested positive for coronavirusin Lucknow while the death tollrose to 1,111. The fresh casesincluded 23 from Gomtinagar,22 from Indiranagar, 14 fromMahanagar, 12 fromJankipuram, 11 fromAlambagh, and 10 each fromAshiyana, Hazratganj &Gudamba.

    Across the state, 1,044 per-sons tested positive, including41 in Kanpur, 59 in Ghaziabad,24 in Gautam Buddh Nagar, 45in Varanasi and 43 in Meerut.There were 18 deaths in thestate, including two each inPrayagraj & Varanasi, and oneeach in Lucknow, Kanpur,Ghaziabad, Gautam BuddhNagar, Meerut, Gorakhpur,Saharanpur, Muzaffarnagar,Rampur, Pratapgarh, RaeBareli, Chandauli,

    Farrukhabad & Banda, takingthe UP toll to 8,340.

    Head of KGMU’sPulmonary department DrSurya Kant Tripathi said theremay be several reasons for thegood recovery rate. “It hasalready been evident thatIndians have a good immuni-ty because of the rough andtough lifestyle. Our kids playoutside in the soil which helpsin building of immunity.Besides, the BCG immunisa-tion programme has alsohelped a lot. It is the first vac-cine given to any child afterbirth. Above all, the measurestaken by the state govern-ment, including the isolationpolicy, have helped. UP is theonly state where Ivermectinwas prescribed as it is thecheapest drug besides beingeffective and prophylactic. Noother state has used this as aprophylactic and the GO wasissued on August 6,” heexplained.

    He claimed the situationhas been very much undercontrol in UP, with the recov-ery rate being very good andmortality rate being low.“Timely and strict measureshave been taken for breakingthe chain of transmission.However, people are not fol-lowing Covid protocols. Theymust understand that the bat-tle is not over as yet,” headded.

    For the majority of the farm-ers, farming is not entrepre-neurship; it is a source of liveli-hood. And 70 per cent of itsrural households still dependprimarily on agriculture fortheir livelihood, with 82 percent of farmers being small andmarginal. Hence, the recentthree Farm Acts, viz., (i) TheFarmers’ Produce Trade andCommerce (Promotion andFacilitation) Act, 2020 (ii) TheFarmers (Empowerment andProtection) Agreement onPrice Assurance and FarmServices Act, 2020, and (iii) TheEssential Commodities(Amendment) Ordinance,2020 passed by the governmentin the Parliament must be seenand studied in the context offarmers’ problems and size ofland holding.

    ‘Through these Acts, thegovernment is trying to doublethe income of farmers andmaking them self-reliant and

    thereby achieving the objectiveof self-reliant India. The posi-tive side of The Farmers’Produce Trade and Commerce(Promotion and Facilitation)Act, 2020 is that it allows bar-rier free trade to farmers andtraders of farm produce whichmeans that farmers and traderscan now trade farm produceoutside the physical premises ofmandi or Agricultural ProduceMarket Committee (APMC)yard. Earlier agricultural prod-ucts were sold only in theAPMC Yard like warehouses,cold storage or mandis’, theEconomist and Head,Department of Economics,Mahatma Gandhi KashiVidyapeeth (MGKV) ProfRajesh Pal while talking to the‘The Pioneer’.

    ‘We must remind here thatthe situation of most of thefarmers in Bihar deterioratedafter abolition of APMC Act inBihar in 2006 as they had nooption to store their produce.And perhaps this is the reason

    why farmers in Punjab andHaryana are protesting thisAct. When farm produce willbe sold outside the premises ofAPMC, there would be noAPMC in the future, and con-sequently lost of MSP. Large-farmers may get the benefit offreedom of selling farm pro-duce inter-state and intrastatebut under the new Act govern-ment cannot intervene to pro-tect farmers when they wouldlose crops due to bad weather,war, famine, and naturalcalamity of grave nature. Theirfear is genuine as most of thefarmers are poor and not ableto bear the loss’, he adds.

    The Farmers(Empowerment andProtection) Agreement onPrice Assurance and FarmServices Act, 2020 introducesa farming agreement betweenfarmer and sponsor, whereinfarmers are given guaranteedprice of their produce and nosponsor can take over the own-ership of land. And so, farmers

    have doubt that their owner-ship may be snatched and maynot get price of their produceat the time of the delivery, heviews adding, though the gov-ernment is trying to promotestrong local linkages fordomestic industries or to par-ticipate in the Global ValueChains (GVCs) wherein link-ages are globally dispersedthrough The EssentialCommodities (Amendment)Ordinance, 2020.

    ‘Hence, it is in our interestto promote local and globallinkages for the agriculturesector and allied activitiesthrough which farmers may beturned into processors andmay be able to take the bene-fits of globalisation. The gov-ernment must address theworries of farmers andanswer why the government isnot intervening in themarket through minimum sup-port price on which the Actseems to be silent’, he views fur-ther.
