Ganderbal, July 18: Police had to face a tough time on Friday when local pon-nywallas and non-local managers of community kitchen clashed with each other at Baltal, the base camp of Amar-nath Yatra. The violence left at least 35 persons including 12 CRPF personnel injured while 300 tents belonged to lo-cals and 6 non-local community kitch-ens turned into ash after set on fire by rival groups.Sources told CNS that during wee hours there was an altercation between a local pony owner and the non-local cook near Domail Baltal. Reports said that a free langar managed along with

few people hailing from Katra argued with a ponywala after he refused to take a yatri from base camp to Amar-nath cave. Sources said that the situa-tion turned ugly when infuriated cook of community kitchen stabbed and hit the pony owner with a knife and stick. An eyewitness told CNS that as the news about the assault spread, local pony owners, tent owners and Dandhi walas took to streets and assembled in thousands near Baltal. “These locals resorted to massive stone-pelting and tried to ransack the community kitch-ens,” an eyewitness said adding that CRPF charged these protestors with

canes and managed to disperse them for a short period of time.Local pony, tent and Dandhi owners al-leged that CRPF personnel joined hands with the managers of community kitch-ens and set their tents on fire. “These cooks sprayed gunpowder on our tents while CRPF bursted tear smoke shells on the tents to make sure they catch fire,” a pony owner Javid Ahmed Dar from Pahalgam told CNS.The pony and tent owners blamed CRPF for highhandedness and alleged that it were CRPF personnel who insti-gated violence and

Srinagar, July 18 : Expressing soli-darity with the Palestinian people against the naked Israeli aggression, Hurriyat Conference (M) Chairman, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq stressed upon the world community to stop the Is-raeli barbarism in Gaza instead of turning a blind eye towards their war crimes.According to a statement issued to KNS, he also appealed the world com-munity to impose an economic boycott on Israel to stop their atrocious acts against the innocent Palestinian peo-ple. Mirwaiz said it was not enough for the world to condemn Israel. “Is-rael must come under international pressure to end the occupation Pales-tine and allow Palestinians to return their homes. Like apartheid South Africa, the world must show inter-national solidarity with Palestinians and impose sanctions and economic boycott on Israel so that it is forced to concede to a just and lasting solution with Palestinians and Palestine must be given its freedom,” Mirwaiz said.Leading a massive rally, during which thousands of people participated, af-ter Friday prayers at historic Jamia Masjid, Mirwaiz termed the silence of Muslim world over Palestinian issue as a tacit support for Israeli acts, add-

ing, the Palestinian issue was not only restricted to the people of that coun-try, but the emotions of entire Muslim Ummah were attached with the issue. He stated that instead of silence, Mus-lim countries should adopt a solid for-eign policy to deal with Israel and free the Palestinians from the shackles of

slavery.Mirwaiz said when Gaza is not sub-jected to Israeli bombing and artil-lery shelling it is still facing a state of siege and suffering a more silent type of war. Gaza is under a continuing blockade and state of siege for years now. People on this occasion shouted slogans against UN and

PDP a bundle of contradictions: Mattu

Srinagar, July 18: National Conference has called into question PDP's hypocrisy in continuing to engineer malicious propaganda about the Haji Yusuf case while simultaneously ad-mitting Ex-IGP Crime Raja Aijaz Ali into its fold and giving him a mandate to contest the forthcoming Assembly Elections. Na-tional Conference has said that PDP's mandate to Raja Aijaz Ali, in addition to the earlier findings of the Jus-tice Bedi Commission, have completely exonerated Omar Abdullah of all false accusations leveled against him by PDP.According to a statement is-sued to KNS, while stating that PDP General Secretary Muhammad Dilawar Mir had perhaps on the instruc-tions of his party bosses as-cribed his name to a pre-de-

signed news statement, NC Spokesman Junaid Azim Mattu asked Muhammad Dilawar Mir to ask his par-ty bosses to introspect and realize that PDP had lost the right to falsely accuse anyone about an incident of forensically proven natural death due to a heart-attack after it had embraced the Top Crime Cop who was not only investigating the case in the immediate af-termath but had also been given a hail and heaty Haji Yusuf's custody at the CM's residence. "It is pertinent to note that a completely nor-mal, hail and hearty Haji Yusuf was handed over to the custody of Ex-IGP Crime and now PDP lead-er and candidate from Uri, Raja Aijaz Ali at the Chief Minister's residence. This is proved by CCTV foot-age that became a part of the investigation", the NC Spokesman said.The NC Spokesman

But like in many oth-er affairs of the state, agri-cultural education and re-search displays a range of contradictions,” a teacher in SKUAST Shalimar told KNS pleading anonymity.He informed that the Agri-culture education in J&K was started in 1960 with es-tablishment of 02 Agricul-tural Colleges; one in R.

Malaysian jet crash in Ukraine 'terrible tragedy': Obama

Terming the crash of a Malaysian airliner in eastern Ukraine as a "terrible tragedy", US President Barack Obama on Thursday said officials were trying to estab-lish if any Americans were on board. "The world is watching reports of a downed passenger jet near the Russia-Ukraine border, and it looks like it may be a terrible tragedy," Obama said at Wilmington in Delaware, where he delivered remarks on the US in-frastructure. "Right now we're working to determine whether there were American citizens on board. That is our first pri-ority. I've directed my national security team

virtually turned Base camp into a battle field.The charge was denied by the CRPF official who said that CRPF protected the lives of people and it were they who brought the situation under control.Reports said that while watching their tents in blaze, locals attacked community kitchens and set at least six of them on fire. The gas cylinders present in these kitchens exploded with big bangs, creating panic in the Base Camp.Eyewitnesses told CNS that top police and CRPF of-ficials including IGP Abdul Gani Mir, DIG central Kashmir Afhadul Mujtaba, IG CRPF and others ar-rived on spot in a chopper to assess the situation. As the chopper made its ground, locals resorted to heavy stone-pelting while, CRPF fired scores of shots in air. Eyewitnesses further added that despite an attempt of Jammu and Kashmir police to control the visibly infuriated CRPF personnel, they set a Tata Mobile (JK16-4245) on fire. “Some policemen tried to save us from the wrath of CRPF personnel but they attacked them as well,” a pony owner said adding that CRPF personnel prevented Fire tenders to reach on spot to douse the fire.Authorities had pressed 18 fire tenders into service which managed to put out fire after struggling for hours together.Reports said that as the news about the arson in Bal-tal spread, traders in Sonamarg, Kulan and Kangan downed their shutters and staged a protest against the CRPF for instigating violence.Government Forces resorted to aerial firing at Kulan to disperse the protestors soon after Friday prayers. Kangan Traders Federation said that they will go for indefinite strike till guilty are not punished.A top police official told CNS on condition of ano-nymity that police arrested at least six persons for indulging in arson of tents. “The detainees include two CRPF personnel, two cooks and two officials of SASB,” he said adding that some of them were caught red handed in putting tents on fire.Eyewitnesses told CNS that a CRPF armoured vehicle allegedly stopped a police van carrying these arrested persons to Sonamarg near Nilgrath demanding their release. The detainees were reportedly taken back to Baltal Base Camp. Meanwhile, the local tent owners said that they suf-fered heavy losses due to the high handedness of CRPF personnel. “I lost my 20 tents and all the belong-ings that I had kept in them,” the owner of Tiger Hill Camping said.A police handout said that some minor squabble be-tween some people in Baltal Yatra camp. “The situa-tion was brought under control without any injuries to anyone. However some tents and a few Langars have caught fire. Police and Fire Service departments are on job to control the fire.”Inspector General of Police Abdul Gani Mir told CNS that it was a minor incident and the Yatra contin-ued as usual. “All Yatri’s and locals are safe and the situation is under control,” he said adding that the presence of gas cylinders in tents took some time in controlling the fire.

site and allow the recovery of bodies. "Rebels in eastern Ukraine will continue fighting in all areas except for the site of the Malaysian plane crash site," a rebel commander was quoted as saying by the RIA Novosti. The Boeing 777 carrying 298 people was en route from Amsterdam to the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lampur, when it crashed on Thursday in eastern Ukraine, near the Russian border. The 15-member crew was from Malaysia and includ-ed two ethnic Indians, Sanjib Singh Sandhu, 41, and Angeline Premila Rajandran, 30. Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko accused "ter-rorists" of downing the jet, referring to pro-Russian separatists. "Terrorists have killed almost 300 persons with one shot," Poroshenko said. "Among them are women, children, citizens of differ-ent countries of the world. However, Russian defense ministry said it had picked up radar unit activity from a Ukrainian-controlled 'Buk' missile system on the day the Malaysian airliner crashed. The passenger jetliner came down close to the town of Shaktarsk in Ukraine's rebellion-wracked region of Donetsk after disappearing from radar screens. Ukraine has called the disaster an "act of terrorism", blaming it on Russia who it says has been aiding the rebels in the conflict and supplying them with ad-vanced weapons. "The Russians are done for. This is an international crime which must be investigated by the internation-al tribunal in The Hague," Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said. Ukrainian authorities said the plane was "shot down" by pro-Russia rebels using a BUK anti-aircraft mis-sile system while it was cruising at an altitude of 10,000 metres. US intelligence authorities said a surface-to-air mis-sile downed the plane, but could not say who fired it. The Russian defence ministry said on Friday that a Ukrainian radar station of surface-to-air missiles was operating on the day the plane crashed. "On July 17, Russian radio-technical facilities re-corded the operation of the Kupol radar station of the Buk-M1 system located near the settlement of Styla (30 kilometres, south of Donetsk)," the ministry said. Meanwhile, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak on Friday demanded that perpetrators must swiftly be brought to justice. "This is a tragic day in what has already been a tragic year for Malaysia. The flight's passengers were from many nations but we are all united in grief." "The government of Malaysia is dispatching a special flight to Kiev, carrying a special Malaysia disaster as-sistance and rescue team, as well as a medical team," Najib said on Friday. He said that Ukrainian authorities believed that the plane was shot down by pro-Russia rebels but that Malaysia was unable to verify this at this moment. "If it transpires that the plane was indeed shot down, we insist that the perpetrators must swiftly be brought to justice," he said. Najib said he had talked to Ukraine President Poros-henko who pledged a thorough investigation into the incident. The plane was on a scheduled flight to Kuala Lumpur and it had not made a distress call. The flight manifest of the plane indicated that the MH17 had onboard 173 nationals from Netherlands, 44 Malaysians, 28 Australians, 12 Indonesians, 9 from UK, 4 Germans, 4 from Belgium, 3 from the Philip-pines, one each from Canada, New Zealand and Hong

Kong. The nationalities of 18 passengers were still to be ver-ified. About 100 of those killed in the crash were world- re-nowned AIDS researchers and activists heading to Australia for a global AIDS conference, reports said. The World Health Organisation said its spokesman Glenn Thomas was on board the plane heading to Australia to attend the 20th International AIDS con-ference which starts on Sunday. Joep Lange, former president of the International AIDS Society and a well-known HIV researcher from the Netherlands, was also among the passengers.

to stay in close contact with the Ukrainian govern-ment," he said. "The United States will offer any assistance we can to help determine what happened and why, and as a country our thoughts and prayers are with all the families of the passengers wherever they call home," Obama said. Earlier the US President was informed about the plane crash by Russian President Vladimir Putin, a presidential spokesman said. Earlier he was briefed by his national security team on the accident. The United States is closely monitor-ing the situation, State Department Spokesperson Jen Psaki said. "At this point, we do not have any confirmed informa-tion about casualties, the cause or additional details. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those on board, their families and loved ones," she told reporters at her daily news conference. "Our embassy in Kiev is also in close contact with the Ukrainian authorities on this incident, but at this point those are all the details that we have," Psaki said.

said that PDP had surprisingly and invariably in-volved its own leader and Ex-IGP Crime Raja Aijaz into a legal web of contradictions unless Raja Ai-jaz comes out and excludes himself from his party's statement. "PDP should note that its current candi-date from Uri and Ex-IGP Crime Raja Aijaz Ali was among a list of people cross-examined by the Justice Bedi Commission and his depositions and statements before the Commission hold legal weight", the NC Spokesman said."What cannot be highlighted enough is the fact that now PDP Leader and Ex-IGP Crime Raja Aijaz Ali was the first person to get the custody of Haji Yusuf after Yusuf was found involved in acts of fraud and misrep-resentation. On Yusuf's involvement coming to fore and this being a criminal matter, Omar Abdullah had demonstrated utmost professionalism as mandated by law by handing over Yusuf to the custody of then IGP Crime and present PDP leader, Raja Aijaz Ali. At that time Yusuf was completely normal", the NC Spokesman said. "Should we believe what was allegedly deposed on electronic media about Haji Yusuf's alleged vomiting or should we believe what was found by the Bedi Com-mission after the cross-examination of Raja Aijaz Ali? The Commission had clearly described reports of al-leged vomiting untrue and false. This was also proven false in the post-mortem of the deceased. Before com-ing to the battleground with lies, PDP should do some research to at least ensure that it is not landing its own leaders into legal soup", the NC Spokesman said while saying that PDP - as is its tendency - was out to have the cake and eat it too. The NC Spokesman said that unlike PDP, which be-lieves in hushing up all allegations against its most senior leaders while in power, National Conference Working President and Chief Minister Omar Abdul-lah went above and beyond merely "following the systemic procedures" and sought not only a Magis-terial Inquiry but also announced a Judicial Inquiry into the matter. "All inquiries completely exonerated Omar Abdullah of all false accusations. This was sub-stantiated by scientific and forensic evidence as well", the NC Spokesman said. Stating that PDP should come clean on the service records of its "new faces" and the corruption charges and unresolved scam findings against its "old faces", NC Spokesman said that PDP was extremely un-nerved by the fact that the party stood exposed as a safe haven for not only corrupt but criminal elements as well. "From taking in the most corrupt and crim-inal faces in the State into the party fold to demon-strating an uncanny ability to invent opportunities to loot and plunder public wealth and resources, PDP broke all records of corruption in the State during its tenure and made J&K the Number One Corrupt State in the Country. Rather than coming clean on serious charges of corruption and embezzlement against its senior leaders, PDP is now out to barter the State's regional character for power by being hand-in-glove with a lobby in Delhi that is actively working to launch an assault on the State's special status", NC Spokesman said.

The Forces deployed in the area had to fire tear smoke shells to disperse the angry crowd. Reports maintained that violent clashes also erupted in some areas of north Kashmir. Youth assembled in groups and started marching towards the main Chowk. The forces deployed in the area tried to stop the procession from moving forward.In several areas of Lal Chowk, people after attending Friday prayers took out the protest demonstrations against Israel. The youth raised anti-Israel and an-ti-America slogans. Also the dummy funerals of Israel were taken out at several places of Srinagar. Gander-bal too witnessed the series of protests with the people raising slogans against the Gaza crises. Protests from various areas of South Kashmir including Pulwama, Shopian and other areas were held.Meanwhile, reports reaching KNS stated that during the protest demonstrations at Qoimoh, Kulgam, clashes between forces and protesters erupted. Some protesters were injured during the clashes with one person reportedly receiving the bullet injury. He was later shifted to Srinagar hospital for treatment.According to a police statement issued to KNS, stray incidents of stone pelting were reported in the after-noon from Qaimoh, Wanpoh in Kulgam, Naid Khai, Sopore, Papchan, Bandipora and Nowhatta in Sri-nagar.“One person Amir Ahmad was injured at Wanpoh, he has been shifted to Srinagar Hospital where his con-dition is being reported to be stable, besides a lady Hasina was injured in Sopore she was shifted to the hospital.”

OIC for their criminal silence over the ongoing car-nage in Gaza.Earlier addressing a Friday gathering, Mirwaiz stated that criminal silence of world community including UN, NAM, OIC and other organizations against the Israeli oppression on innocent Palestinians, killing of women and children was a cause of concern and regret. He stated that the unilateral aggression by Is-raelis on innocent Palestinians was a highly condem-nable act, adding, the silence of the world was even encouraging the Israelis to go for a mass murder of Palestinians.Like Palestinians, Mirwaiz stated that Kashmiris too were subjected to interminable suppression. He said every heart in Kashmiris beats for the Palestinians cause and they can’t remain silent on Israeli spon-sored terrorism on Palestinians. He stated that both the Kashmir and Palestinian issues are present on UN agenda from past many decades and till these is-sues are not solved I'm accordance with the wishes of its people ,peace economic prosperity and stabil-ity would not return to South Asia and Middle East Mirwaiz presented a resolution before thousands of people to stop attacks on Gaza, expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people, recognizing the rights of oppressed Palestinians, and observing the coming Ju-mait-ul-vida as Youm-e-Qudus and Youm-e-Kashmir.

punishment’ are often transferred to this adminis-tratively called ‘KALLA PANI’ to mend their busi-ness. “The Scientists who are routinely transferred to Wadura use highest political sources to revert the orders. The height of the sacredness can be imagined from the fact that one of the senior most Professors when appointed as Dean Faculty of Agriculture at Wadura preferred to accept a clerical post of Registrar to be posted at Shalimar.”Interestingly, these administrative discrepancies have snatched the national level status of this glori-ous institution with a 5th rank at all India level in sev-enties and eighties.It is also pertinent to mention here that with highly competent and talented Faculty, the Wadura campus over the years has produced many trained graduates who are best equipped to serve the agriculture, horti-culture and forestry sectors in J&K.This campus has achieved a high degree of academic excellence which can be gauged by the fact that in re-cent years seven pass outs of the campus have joined Indian Forest Service, 45 have joined Kashmir Ad-ministrative Service, 8 have qualified ARS and more than 150 have qualified JRF examination conducted by ICAR at national level. Besides, most of the gradu-ates produced by this campus are working at the high-er levels in planning the developmental departments in Agriculture and its allied sectors.Despite this huge contribution to agricultural educa-tion, and a history of giving birth to two agricultural universities in J & K the irony with the Wadura cam-pus has been that soon after the University started functioning at Shalimar, the Wadura campus became a victim of apathy and neglect. The campus is the worst victim of regionalism and is facing political ap-athy for its own up-gradation as a separate university.“Prevailing good sense, Prof. Tej Partap the current Vice Chancellor started his tenure with a promise to shift many of the academic programmes to this cam-pus. To start with the vice chancellor issued a circu-lar for consolidating a fragmented faculty of forestry at this place. The university authorities are now of the opinion that the Forestry be shifted to barren land with just one building at Benihama Ganderbal,” sources revealed to KNS.The Faculty of Horticulture which was to be estab-lished at Wadura as per Govt. decision was relocat-ed at Shalimar with merger of many Divisions that belonged to Faculty of Agriculture. “The Faculty of Agriculture with fractured four Divisions proposed to be established at Wadura campus without shifting the human resource was another move to disintegrate this oldest campus of the university,” a teacher in Wadura campus said wishing not to be named.He added under motivated political ambitions, the university has became a playground for power wran-gling authorities whose actions exhibit indifference to

quality and hostility to academic growth. Despite re-peated attempts Prof. Tej Partap, the Vice Chancellor SKUAST was not available for his comments. (KNS)

SRINAGAR | SATURDAY, JULY | 19 | 2014Daily ZABARWAN TIMES NEWS

Take a break from your routine, Libra. You might feel like you’re leading an army into battle as you strive for new adven-tures and conquer new realms. Make sure you take a bit of time out today to stop and let your troops rest. You deserve a little rest yourself. Use this moment of stillness to form your plan of attack so you’re sure about how to proceed.

The key for you is to minimize your daily drama as much as possible, Scorpio. You may not realize how much you cripple your-self by the way you exaggerate every aspect of your life. Try not to give so much of your attention to things that really don’t matter much. Petty jealousy and gossip about other people’s lives are es-pecially irrelevant in your world.

Be careful of advertising yourself as someone who is so strong and mentally competent that you’re capable of handling every-thing, Sagittarius. Take note that the strongest mule on the trail usually ends up carrying the most weight. Your emotions are more sensitive than you may think, and certainly more than you demonstrate to others. Be honest about the way you feel and not just the way you think.

Things should flow well for you today with very little ef-fort on your part, Capricorn. Take note that if any quarrel arises, it’s an indication that the person you’re arguing with isn’t nec-essarily the right person to deal with or confide in. Emotional issues are likely to be the hardest ones to overcome, but this shouldn’t be a problem for you. You have the ability to work through these like a pro.

This is meant to be a nice, relaxing day, so treat it as such, Aquarius. There’s no need for you to plan any great strategy at this time. Try to take it easy and not indulge in any unnecessary stress. This is your time to enjoy the moment. Don’t tax your mind by overanalyzing everything that comes your way. Go with the flow and have a great time regardless of what you end up doing.

Your sensual nature is heightened, Pisces, and you’ll find yourself engaged in tender moments and languid peacefulness in the company of others. Soothe your soul by letting yourself slip into situations that give you the emotional freedom to do or say whatever comes to mind. Life should be like a love poem written by a great master. Accept the good energy that comes your way.

Your sixth sense is right on target, Virgo, so trust your instincts today. You’re likely to connect with someone in a wonderful partnership that will help you foster the very plan you want to develop now. Stay close to those things that resonate strongly with your morals. The answer is in front of you; you don’t have to search too far afield in order to find it.

Allow your eager and restless nature to express itself in ways other than through the spoken word, Aries. Show someone that you care through your gentle touch or a big bear hug. Hold on a little bit more tightly than you might normally. There’s an unspo-ken understanding that comes when you communicate through nothing but pure silence. Work on developing this kind of connec-tion with those closest to you.

This is a terrific day for you, Taurus. You should find that your relationships, especially with men, go exceptionally well. Your tender and extremely sensitive nature is finally being recognized as the treasure chest it is. There are many times in which this type of personality is seen as weak, yet today is one of those times in which you’re given the full credit you deserve.

A selfish attitude on your part won’t be tolerated today, re-gardless of the circumstances, Gemini. Don’t make it worse for yourself by pretending that you don’t notice others’ hurt feelings. People are likely to be extra sensitive today, so be careful about trying to impose your will on someone who really wants nothing more than an ear to talk to and a shoulder to cry on.

You could find the hardest person to face is you, Cancer. You tend toward introspection, and you may find yourself shrinking into self-recrimination. You could analyze the important people in your life and yet fail to address the one you really need to look at – you. As you continually strive for perfection, give yourself proper credit. Do something nice for yourself today.

Take advantage of the creative energy in the air today, Leo. Keep your hands moving and your imagination flowing toward something fun and artistic. If you begin to doubt your work, you may fall down a spiral of creative blockage. Don’t get into the habit of constantly judging the quality or outcome of your work. Give yourself free rein to open up and explore whatever comes to mind.

WASHINGTON: As Russia and Ukraine trade blame over the ap-parent shooting down of a Ma-laysian airliner, they appear to agree on one thing: the type of Soviet-era missile that brought it down.

But if an SA-11 Buk mis-sile, known as “Gadfly” in Nato, struck the aircraft and killed all 298 on board, that won’t solve the mystery of who did it: Russia, Ukraine and Russian-speaking rebels have all claimed the mis-sile in their arsenals.

Circumstantial evidence points increasingly to the sepa-ratists, western officials and ana-lysts say, pointing to rebel claims of shooting at Ukrainian military aircraft at approximately the same time.

The rebels were believed to have used a similar system to shoot down a Ukrainian Antonov AN-26 aircraft on Monday.

Whether the 1970s-era radar-guided missiles would have been supplied by Russia or captured from Ukrainian forces is uncer-tain.

“Even if we know the weapon type, it is impossible now to say

where it came from,” said Samuel Charap, a former US state depart-ment official and now a fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies in Washington.

On June 29, Russian newswire ITAR-TASS quoted separatists in Donetsk in eastern Ukraine, not far from where the plane went down, as saying they had seized control of a missile defense army unit equipped with the Buk sys-tem.

A pro-Russian militant passes by the wreckage of a Boeing 777, of Malaysia Arilines flight MH17 debris, which crashed during flight over the eastern Ukraine region near Donetsk.

Ukrainian interior ministry

official Anton Gerashchenko said after the crash the Buk anti-air-craft system was “kindly given to the separatists by (Russian Presi-dent Vladimir) Putin.”

RIA Novosti news agency in Moscow quoted a source as say-ing a Ukrainian army battalion had a Buk system deployed near the city of Donetsk a day before the crash and the missile likely came from that system. The source said the anti-government forces in eastern Ukraine do not have the Buk system.

If rebels were at the helm of the Buk system, they were not likely well trained in its use and may have simply misidentified it as a Ukraine military plane,

Charap said.“It’s the kind of scenario that

becomes much more likely when you give a lot of undertrained and unreliable people sophisti-cated weaponry,” he said.

Nick de Larrinaga, an analyst at IHS Jane’s Defence, said the shoulder-fired missiles typically used by separatist rebels in east-ern Ukraine would not be able to hit a passenger aircraft flying at normal cruising altitude. Such weapons have shot down several Ukrainian helicopters and air-craft.

He said a commercial aircraft would, however, have been in range of surface-to-air missile systems such as the Buk or al-ternatively the Russian-made S-300, also called the “SA-10 Grumble.”

“Both Russia and Ukraine have such SAM (surface-to-air missile) systems in their invento-ries,” he said.

The Buk — which means beech tree in Russian — includes four missiles on a turntable mounted on a tracked vehicle. A separate tracked vehicle carries early warning and acquisition

radars.Candlelight prayers are pre-

papred for victims of the Malay-sia Airlines Flight 17 at a church outside Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The system’s 5.7-metre (19-foot), 55-kg (110-lb) missiles have a range of up to 28 km (18 miles).

Ukraine banned tests of the Buk, the S-300 and similar mis-sile systems for seven years after a wayward missile hit a Russian Tu-154 airliner flying from Israel to Siberia in 2001, killing all 78 people on board.

Ukraine says Russian jets shot down a Ukrainian SU-27 fighter on Wednesday. Kiev has been stepping up its air strikes along the border and this week also ac-cused Russia of violating its ter-ritory in an airstrike on the town of Snizhe.

Senior US officials point to a boast on Russian social media by pro-rebel commander Igor Gir-kin, who uses the nom de guerre Strelkov, that the rebels had shot down a plane.One of the US of-ficials said the social media post was thought to be genuine, and another said.

Fireman dies as Navy, CG choppers evacuate 21 in Mumbai blaze

A fireman died and nine of his colleagues were in-jured as Navy and Coast Guard helicopters evacuat-ed a group of firefighters trapped atop a commercial building aflame in a Mumbai suburb on Friday, offi-cials said. A major blaze broke out on 21st floor of Lotus Busi-ness Park, an upscale commercial building at And-heri, a little before noon and 21 firemen got strand-ed on the rooftop though all civilians were promptly evacuated. “21 firemen were brought to our hospital, one of them was brought dead. Some of them are in-jured but none is serious,” Medical Superintendent of Cooper Hospital Dr Sitaram Gawde told the news agency. An official at the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai’s disaster management cell told the news agency that only nine of those rushed to the hos-pital had received injuries. Tawde said it was not yet known if the deceased fire-man died of asphyxiation or due to injuries. The firemen rushed to Cooper Hospital were those who had got trapped on the terrace of the building and were evacuated with the help of Navy and Coast Guard helicopters. Fighting inclement weather, the Navy and Coast Guard personnel on two helicopters waged a grim battle to evacuate those trapped on the terrace. Dramatic videos showed stranded firefighters cling-ing precariously to railings and scaffoldings as giant flames leapt menacingly towards them. As timely showers caused the fire to abate, they man-aged to return to terrace after some time.

After hovering in the sky and finding no place to land, Navy and Coast Guard personnel lowered winches and firemen were hauled up the aircraft. Although all 21 trapped on the rooftop were evacuat-

ed, one lost his life, apparently due to asphyxiation. Cooper Hospital Superintendent, however, said the exact cause of death would be known only after post mortem.

Filthy trends in present

day politics

“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people

will never forget how you made them feel.”

Quote of the day

Maya Angelou

As the assembly elec-tions are nearing ,the political activities in state has picked up and dozens of oppor-

tunists, turn-coats, defectors are changing parties every day.The parties the join are proudly announce their entry and claim that hundreds of their support-ers have also joined the party. One fails to understand the log-ic behind such claims as every body knows that these turn-coats have no locus-standi and they are not even supported by their near and dear ones. However at their entry they are profous-ly garlanded and their services highlighted for media consump-tion but after some days they are left high and dry and even are not welcomed in the party office where people taunt them and fun of them. Besides this activ-ity , the politicians are speaking on a very high pitch these days and blaming their opponents for all sorts of things. They decorate each other with frillings like cor-rupt, dishonest, black-mailers, exploiters, opportunists, and even killers. Even the parties in coalition do not spare each oth-er in their offensive and use abu-sive slang language besides call-ing names of each other. After seeing all this, one comes to the conclusion that politics is not suited for civilized, polite, cul-tured and honest people. When one recalls the spate of abus-es hurled by the then Speak-er Mohd. Akbar Lone on PDP leader Molvi Iftikhar Ansari, it looks unbelievable as he used every abuse in his dictionary in the august house where parlia-mentary ethics guide every in-dividual. Perhaps the standards in every field of life have gone down so drastically that one can not believe his eyes and ears while listening the language of the politicians and watching their behavior. What can be ex-pected of a common man if poli-ticians supposed to be role mod-el for others behaves in such a disgusting manner. In fact, the youngster who watch this all do not customize exemplary behav-ior of these politicians and by doing this we are just passing our filthy present to the future of our younger generations. At least these politicians should be-have like normal human beings and set example of parliamenta-ry behavior.
