Increasing pollution is detrimentalto ‘Incredible India’ image

MRITSAR : Ahead of World Tourism Day(27 September), Aleading travel and tourism

associations of India have come together to appeal to the government to strengthen the packaging waste collection and recycling ecosystem; echoing cleanliness to play a vital role to attract regional and international tourists to Indian tourist destinations. The strengthening of waste collection system and educating common citizens about the importance of responsible disposal of various types of plastics will ensure less waste littered at the tourist hotspots and other Indian cities. Currently, plastics like multilayered packaging (Chips/biscuits) and tetra packs rarely get collected due to their low value in the recycling ecosystem, other plastics like PET/HDPE bottles are the most recycled globally and fetch INR 25-30 per kg for ragpickers. A month ago, the Indian government released the Swaccha Survekshan (Cleanliness Survey), in which many tourist hotspots like Amritsar, Jaipur, Delhi, Mumbai, Srinagar, Varanasi Shillong, etc. received a poor rating. Also, almost half of the world’s 50 most polluted cities are in India. It projects a negative image of India/Indian destinations globally and adversely impacts tourism. The current pandemic is an opportunity to rethink the roadmap to build a clean, safe, and environment-friendly tourism ecosystem.

LadwaCongress MLAMewa Singh,who arrived atthe protest site ofMewa Singhsaid that thethree ordinancespassed by the central government are anti-farmer on this issue,he and the Congress party are with the farmers. He and theCongress party will continue to work in the interest of the farm-ers, MLA Meva Singh also said that the leaders of theBharatiya Janata Party are misleading the farmers about the 3ordinances. When the Congress Party ruled the BJP had op-posed it, which the Congress had rejected. Today the BJP gov-ernment itself wants to impose three other agri ordinances onthe farmers. MLA Mewa Singh said that he is an MLA and hewill always be with problems of farmers.Youth Congress dis-trict president Harpreet Singh, border farmer leader Dharamvirand Jasvir etc. were also present on the occasion.

An event was organised un-der the leadership of BJPleader Sumer Chand Mu-radgarh on the 104th birth an-niversary of Pandit Deenday-al Upadhyay, father of JanaSangh, in Muradgarh villageof subdivision. On the birthanniversary of Pandit Deen-dayal Upadhyaya, BJP work-ers paid floral tributes to him.Former Block Committeechairman and BJP leaderSumer Chand Kamboj saidthat Pandit Deendayal Upad-hyay was the inspiration ofideas of humanity. PanditDeendayal Upadhyaya wasnot just a name but an ideolo-gy, his views are still relevanttoday. Be it the central gov-ernment or the state govern-ment, it was his dream to de-velop a person standing on

the last rung of the societyand this dream is being car-ried forward by the BJP gov-ernment.

He said that as soon asPrime Minister NarendraModi took over the power,Deendayal Upadhyay was es-tablished as a national per-sonality. The Modi govern-ment has implemented manyschemes in the country, in-

cluding new railway sta-tions, ports, educational in-stitutions etc. Sumer Chandsaid that we should take in-spiration from the life ofPandit Deendayal Upad-hyaya. . Hari Singh, RoshanLal, Jaipal, Virendra Kam-boj, Shyamlal Numberdar,etc and a large number ofBJP workers were also pres-ent on the occasion.

Mixed response tostrike by farmers

MAIN PAL KASHYAPINDRI, SEPT 25

The BKU had announced All India bandh on 25 September onthe issue of three agriculture bills. The farmers and peasantleaders raised slogans against the government by blocking theroad near village Bayana and demanded withdrawal of all thethree bills. The farmers expressed their anger by jamming theroad near village Ramba on Indri Yamunanagar road, in whichemployees and workers collaborated, but the movement hadmixed effects. Sardar Jagjit Singh, who is leading the movement,said that the government has brought three laws against farmerswithout taking the farmers into confidence. However, no guaran-tee is being given to farmers about support price. Which farmershave been demanding for a long time. Farmer leader Ompal Man-dal said that all these three bills are anti-farmer. He said that thegovernment has claimed that farmers in the mandis and outsidethe mandi will get higher rates than the MSP. But today the con-dition of the mandis is that paddy is being bought below Rs 500even from the MSP. They have demanded the BJP government toguarantee the minimum support price to the farmers otherwisefarmers will go to Delhi to fight for their rights.

Farmers protest againstagri bills in RadaurMUKESH DUTTARADAUR: Hundreds of farmers associated with theBharatiya Kisan Union on Friday protested against theBharat Bandh on the Triveni chowk of the city by block-ing a jam from 10 am to 4 pm in protest against thegovernment's imposition of 3 agricultural ordinances.Under the leadership of state vice-president PradeepNagla and district president Subhash Gurjar, the farm-ers staged a strong anti-government protest in Trivenichowk in the city with a scorching heat and jam forabout 6 hours in the scorching heat.A heavy police force was deployed at Bubka chowkand Triveni chowk in Radaur due to the jam of farmers.The police arranged for the vehicles to be sent throughother routes in the Radaur area due to the jam of thefarmers. Police staff conducted a rigorous examinationof the vehicles passing through SK Road. District Su-perintendent of Police Kamaldeep Goyal visited TriveniShock and took stock of the situation to protest thefarmers' protest. SDM Radaur Sushil Kumar, DSPRadaur Randhir Singh and Inspector Purn Singh Man-dan were present on the spot along with the heavy po-lice force regarding the farmers' movement. During this,the farmers shouted anti-government slogans by burn-ing effigies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

DARSHAN SHARMANILOKHERI: The shopkeepers also called for the shutdown and also sup-ported the farmers by closing the shops. Along with this, farmer leaders Ra-jinder Singh and Daler Singh Malli said that such demonstrations will contin-ue till the government withdraws the ordinance implemented. -The samething is said that the Congress is tricking the farmers, does the farmer notunderstand that whatever ordinance the government has implemented isagainst the farmers. In addition to Tejpal, Subhash Malkhan Singh, RishiBarsalu, Shivkumar, Ramkishan Barani, Mahendra Singh, Suresh Barthal,Sukhbir, a large number of farmers were marching in the protest.

On August 31 last, the Republican National Con-vention and Kenosha were the themes of LastWeek Tonight with John Oliver. Oliver, as every-

one knows, is not fond of his president. He said the RNCwas an “event to celebrate the stewardship of DonaldTrump, a tough sell at the best of times, but somethingthat felt particularly out of step this week, consideringwe have a pandemic on the rampage, an economic ca-tastrophe unfolding, and wildfires and hurricanes batter-ing the country”. More, “it [was] a little jarring that theRepublicans’opening argument seemed to essentially bethis. Ladies and gentlemen, leaders and fighters for free-dom and liberty and the American dream, the best is yetto come!” This is familiar to chasers of the dream of Bharat, sure-ly? Oliver had video excerpts of Republicans throwingtheir arms out triumphantly to substantiate his unkindcomments. For Indians, since the achchhe din promisedby the Bharatiya Janata Party in 2014 has not, in Sep-tember 2020, seen Rs 15 lakh deposited in every citi-zen’s bank account with the return of black money fromabroad, the best remains yet to come. That is, if theachchhe din hope is not just a jumla, a way of speaking— a joke? — that the Union home minister, Amit Shah,called the Rs 15 lakh promise later. Oliver recreated a scene that we have grown addicted toin our country: “The main theme of the conventionseemed to be telling lies in front of flags…four days offull-throated denial of objective reality…” If “the mis-leading portrait painted of Trump’s opponents” can betaken as fair game, what followed can make us sit up ex-citedly: “Convention speakers also claimed that Trumpnever called white supremacists ‘very fine people’,which he did.” That was Charlottesville, 2017, with waf-fling thereafter. And that he passed the veteran’s choiceact, “which he didn’t” — Barack Obama did. Also “thathe is trying to protect patients with pre-existing condi-tions, which he very much is not”. This is a proactive lie,ignoring that Republicans have gone to court against theprotection of patients with pre-existing conditions inmedical insurance, somewhat reminiscent of the unnec-essary government rhetoric around the Citizenship(Amendment) Act that is surely not discriminatory. Thefantasy about Trump’s sympathy for these patients ig-nited Oliver’s imagination: “And I am honestly sur-prised that a speaker didn’t…claim that Trump inventedparakeets, or that he stopped the murder of hornets bysucking them straight out of the air.” No, Trump’s “loy-al friend” Narendra Modi did not invent parakeets either,but he does enjoy inventing medical and technologicalachievements of ancient India with a prime ministerialauthority that sends his inventions straight into historybooks and scientific conventions.

Literature & HealthCould life exist deep

underground on Mars?Recent science missions and results

are bringing the search for a lifecloser to home, and scientists at the

Center for Astrophysics | Harvard, andSmithsonian (CfA) and the Florida Insti-tute of Technology (FIT) may have figuredout how to determine whether life is - orwas - lurking deep beneath the surface ofMars, the Moon, and other rockyobjects in the universe.

While the search for life typi-cally focuses on water found on thesurface and in the atmosphere ofobjects, Dr Avi Loeb, Frank B.Baird Jr. Professor of Science atHarvard and CfA astronomer, andDr Manasvi Lingam, assistant pro-fessor of astrobiology at FIT andCfA astronomer, suggest that theabsence of surface water doesn'tpreclude the potential for life else-where on a rocky object, like deepin the subsurface biosphere. "Weexamined whether conditions amenable tolife could exist deep underneath the sur-face of rocky objects like the Moon orMars at some point in their histories andhow scientists might go about searchingfor traces of past subsurface life on theseobjects," said Lingam, the lead author onthe research. "We know that these search-es will be technically challenging, but notimpossible." One challenge for researcherswas determining the potential for the exis-tence of water where there appears to benone. "Surface water requires an atmos-phere to maintain a finite pressure, withoutwhich liquid water cannot exist. However,

when one moves to deeper regions, the up-per layers exert pressure and thus permitthe existence of liquid water in principle,"said Lingam. "For instance, Mars does notcurrently have any longstanding bodies ofwater on its surface, but it is known to havesubsurface lakes." The research analyzesthe "thickness" of the subsurface region--

where water and life might exist in princi-ple--of the nearby rocky objects, andwhether the high pressures therein couldrule out life altogether.

According to Loeb, the answer isprobably not. "Both the Moon and Marslack an atmosphere that would allow liquidwater to exist on their surfaces, but thewarmer and pressurized regions under thesurface could allow the chemistry of life inliquid water." The research also arrived ata limit on the amount of biological materi-al that might exist in deep subsurface en-vironments, and the answer, althoughsmall, is surprising.

Houston researchershave unveiled a studyof over 5,000 genetic

sequences of coronaviruswhich reveals the pathogen'svirus's continuous accumula-tion of mutations.

The study, released onWednesday, however, doesnot conclude that these muta-tions made the virus deadlieror changed clinical out-comes. According to scien-tists, all the viruses accumu-late genetic mutations andmost of them are insignifi-cant, The Washington Postreported.

Study author JamesMusser of HoustonMethodist Hospital said thatcoronaviruses like SARS-CoV-2 are relatively stable asviruses go since they have aproofreading mechanism asthey replicate. "But everymutation is a roll of the dice,and with transmission sowidespread in the US --which continues to see tensof thousands of new, con-firmed infections daily -- thevirus has had abundant op-portunities to change, poten-tially with troublesome con-sequences," Musser said.

"We have given this virusa lot of chances. There is ahuge population size outthere right now," he added.

Several scientists fromWeill Cornell Medicine, theUniversity of Chicago, Ar-gonne National Laboratoryand Austin's University of

Texas also contributed to theresearch. The study, whichhas not been peer-reviewed,appears to be the largest sin-gle aggregation of genetic se-quences of the virus in theUS as of now. Last month, astudy by UK scientists said amutation that changes thestructure of the "spike pro-tein" on the virus's surfacemay be driving the outsizedspread of that particularstrain, according to TheWashington Post.

According to the newHouston study, the findingspointed out the strong possi-bility that the virus, whichmoved through the popula-tion, became more transmis-sible, and this "may have im-plications for our ability tocontrol it", said David

Morens, a virologist at theNational Institute of Allergyand Infectious Diseases.

Morens said it is a singlestudy and "you do not wantto over-interpret what thismeans." However, the virolo-gist stated that the viruscould be responding poten-tially through random muta-tions to such interventions associal distancing and wear-ing of masks.

"Wearing masks, wash-ing our hands, all thosethings are barriers to trans-missibility, or contagion, butas the virus becomes morecontagious it statistically isbetter at getting around thosebarriers," Morens said,adding it could have implica-tions regarding the formula-tion of vaccines. The virus

could be under selectivepressure to evade the humanimmune response as peoplegain immunity either throughinfections or a vaccine.

"Although we do notknow yet, it is well within therealm of possibility that thiscoronavirus, when our popu-lation-level immunity getshigh enough, this coron-avirus will find a way to getaround our immunity. If thathappened, we would be in thesame situation as with flu.We will have to chase thevirus and as it mutates, wewill have to tinker with ourvaccine," Morens said.

According to the study,the virus spread in two wavesacross neighbourhoods inHouston -- firstly affectingwealthier and older individu-

als and then spreading toyounger people and lower in-come areas -- infecting sever-al Latino city residents.

Genetic data showed thatthe virus arrived in Houstonmany times, possibly by airtravel first. Notably, 71 percent of the viruses which ar-rived initially were charac-terised by a now famous mu-tation, which appears to havefirst originated in China, thatscientists believe could givethe virus a biological advan-tage in how it spread, TheWashington Post reported.

It is called D614G, refer-ring to the substitution of anamino acid called asparticacid (D) for one calledglycine (G) in a region of thegenome that encodes thespike protein.

By the second wave ofthe outbreak in Houston, theresearch noted that this vari-ant leaped to 99.9 per centprevalence. People infectedwith the strain had higherloads of virus in their upperrespiratory tracts, which is apotential factor in making thestrain spread effectivelymore, researchers found.

According to Musser'sinterpretation, D614G wasincreasingly dominant inHouston and other areas as itwas better adapted to spread-ing among humans. He ac-knowledged that the scientif-ic case is not yet closed onthe matter. "This is not amurder trial. We are not look-

ing for beyond a reasonabledoubt. This is a civil trial, andclearly, it is the preponder-ance of the evidence that Ithink forces all of us into thesame conclusion, which isthere is something biologi-cally different about thatstrain, that family of strains,"said Musser.

Kristian Andersen, animmunologist at the ScrippsResearch Institute in Califor-nia, downplayed the re-search's significance, sayingit "just confirms what has al-ready been described -- G in-creased in frequency overtime."

Andersen, who was notinvolved in the study, said asfor numerous other muta-tions, "they just cataloguethem, but we do not know ifany of them have any func-tional relevance." The studycharacterises some of thespike protein mutations as"disconcerting". Althoughthe research does not showstrong proof that additionalevolution of the spike proteinis taking place, it suggests"these repeated substitutionsprovide a hint as the virus in-teracts with our bodies andour immune systems, it maybe learning new tricks thathelp it respond to its host". "Ithink there is pretty good ev-idence that is consistent withimmunologic selection act-ing on certain regions of thespike protein," Musser wasquoted as saying.

The Chinese government"would do well" if itgives up its aggressive

posture along Line of ActualControl (LAC) and takes thelead in defusing the tensionswith India, The Irrawaddy re-ported. Journalist JayantaKalita writes in The Irrawad-dy that India-China bordertension in eastern Ladakh re-gion could spread to India'snortheastern periphery if thetwo sides fail to reach a con-sensus soon.

The two sides are current-ly engaged in military-leveltalks, but there are no signs ofa breakthrough yet. Beijing,however, states that it does notwant the border dispute to af-fect bilateral cooperation

"The Xi Jinping regimewould do well if it gives up itsaggressive posture and takesthe lead in defusing the borderrow with India given thatthere is a worldwide negativeperception against China inthe wake of the Covid-19 out-break," the article reads.

India and China have beenengaged in a territorial con-flict since April-May timeframe as the Chinese Armytransgressed into multiple ar-eas from the Galwan valley tothe Finger area along the Pan-gong lake. Citing several re-

ports, Journalist Kalita saidthat there has been a massiveChinese buildup along theLAC, the de facto border be-tween the two Asian giants,opposite Arunachal Pradesh.Kalita says that New Delhi,however, seems to be treadingcautiously while maintainingtrade relations with its neigh-bour China.

Within India, experts callfor reducing trade dependenceon China. "In April, theNarendra Modi governmenttightened its Foreign DirectInvestment (FDI) norms in or-der to prevent what it called'opportunistic takeovers' offirms hit by the pandemic-triggered lockdown, a moveseen as aimed at China. At $8billion (as of December

2019), China is the biggest in-vestor in India among thecountries the latter shares bor-ders with," she writes. Indiaand China, which held thesixth round of Senior Com-manders' meeting on Mondayfollowing border tensions ineastern Ladakh, have agreedto avoid misunderstandingsand misjudgments, stop send-ing more troops to the front-line, refrain from unilaterallychanging the situation on theground and avoid taking anyactions that may complicatethe situation.

The two sides also agreedto strengthen communicationon the ground and to hold thenext round of Military Com-mander-Level Meeting assoon as possible.

Himachal police signs MoU with IITMandi to update its personnel

Collaboration will make policemen tech savvy: CMSHIMLA, SEP 25

A Memorandum of Understanding(MoU) was signed betweenHimachal Pradesh Police andIndian Institute of Technology(IIT), Mandi in the presence ofChief Minister Jai Ram Thakurhere today to set up an institutionalmechanism to facilitate the PolicePersonal in updating theirknowledge. Chief Minister alsoinaugurated Himachal PradeshCCTV Surveillance Matrix andCommand Centre at State PoliceHeadquarters which had beenestablished in a record time of 65days despite Covid-19 pandemic.

Speaking on the occasion,Chief Minister said that theobjective of the MoU was tofacilitate the police personnel toupdate their knowledge about newtechnologies, geographical andtemporal analysis of crime andpublic order, prediction of periodcrime trends, traffic management,e-challaning, beat patrollingsystem, threat and securityanalysis, cybercrime, cyberforensics and cyber security. Hesaid that the collaboration wouldbe based on research anddevelopment activities andcapacity building which wouldinvolve police officers, IIT faculty,

researchers and students.Jai Ram Thakur said that it

would also offer exposure to IITstudents about police functioningand internships at various units ofHimachal Pradesh Police. He saidthat this would also facilitateinteraction of students with policeofficers to enhance exposure toideas of crime trends, detection,prediction, analytics and learningabout technological matters. Hesaid that this would also update theknowledge of police officersparticularly of InvestigationOfficers on technologicaladvancement and its application in

practical policing. Thecollaboration will provideimprovement in police workingespecially with respect to systems,protocols, technologies andtraining imparted at PoliceTraining Centre, Daroh and otherunits in Himachal Pradesh Police,he added. Chief Minister said thatthis CCTV Surveillance Matrixsystem would work on theprinciple of ‘Stopping crimebefore its starts’ by integrating allits components. He said that theaim of this system was to focus onpredicting crimes, offenders,perpetrators, victims, places and

time. Jai Ram Thakur at presentthere were over 19,300 CCTVcameras installed all over the Stateand these were very helpful inprevention and detection of crime,investigations, trafficmanagement, manpoweroptimization and improvingefficiency in police servicedelivery. He said that keeping inview the about 70 lakh populationof State ideally 68,000 cameraswere required to be installed allover the State. He said that theState Government would considerto install these cameras in a phasedmanner. He said that this wouldnot only check the crime but alsohelp in effectively managingtraffic in the State.

Chief Minister said that fourcommand centres had beenfunctioning in Kullu, Sirmour andKinnaur and Baddi Police districtseffectively and efforts were beingmade to establish district levelcommand centre in other districtsof the State as well. He said that itwas the need of the hour to equippolice force with latesttechnologies to cope up with thesituation as anti social elementswere also using technologies. Hesaid that police personnel need tobe a step ahead in technology tocurb crime in the State.

GAURAV GOELCHANDIGARH, SEPT 25

Chief Minister Captain AmarinderSingh has expressed the hope thatthe pain of the agitating farmers,who braved the pandemic and theheat today to protest against theAgriculture Bills, will reach theCentral Government, and it willgracefully back off from destroyingthe farm sector with such ruthlessdisregard for the farming communi-ty.

The BJP-led Union Governmenthad, with its ill-conceived and un-constitutional farm laws, pushedthe farmers to the brink, forcingthem to come out on the roads andendanger their lives amid the Covidpandemic, said the Chief Minister,expressing grave concern over theplight of the farmers and others as-sociated with the Agriculture sector– the lifeline of the Punjab’s econo-my. “Maybe the distressing visualsof tens of hundreds of farmers outon the roads at hundreds of loca-

tions in Punjab, and in several oth-er states, will touch the hearts of thecentral leadership,” the Chief Min-ister hoped. Perhaps the BharatiyaJanata Party (BJP) will now realiseits folly, he added.

Reiterating his commitment tofight the draconian laws till his lastbreath, Captain Amarinder alsourged the President of India not togive his assent to the Bills, whichwere crafted to destroy not just theeconomy of Punjab and the food se-

curity of the nation but also thelives of lakhs of farmers and theirfamilies, as well as those dependenton the Agricultural food chain fortheir livelihood.

The Bills, if implemented, willhave devastating effects for the bor-der state of Punjab, as well as forthe entire nation, he warned, charg-ing the Centre with ignoring thefarmers’ concerns to promote theinterests of their capitalist cronies.The Chief Minister said his govern-ment, along with the Punjab Con-gress, will continue to stand shoul-der to shoulder with the farmers tooppose the Bills, and will takewhatever steps needed, includingmoving the courts, to scuttle theCentre’s dangerous attempt to de-molish the state’s well-establishedfarming network.

Captain Amarinder also lashedout at the Akalis for their publicposturing on the Bills, which eventhe farmers had dismissed as croco-dile tears. Reacting to the attack bySukhbir Badal and Harsimrat Badal

on him (Captain Amarinder), theChief Minister dubbed it a blatanttactic to divert attention from theirown failure to protect the farmers’interests and their shameful deci-sion to stay on in the Central Gov-ernment, after actively supportingand defending the Farm Ordi-nances. He said the Akali doublestandards had been totally exposedby the fact that they continued to bea part of the anti-farmer rulingcoalition at the Centre and had, tilldate, refused to even come out withany public criticism of the UnionGovernment.

This drama of Harsimrat resign-ing from the Union Cabinet is notenough to convince the farmers ofthe sincerity of the Shiromani AkaliDal (SAD). Questioned Sukhbir’spersistent refusal to pull his partyout of the ruling NDA, the ChiefMinister said the farmers of Punjabhad seen through the Akali tactics,and won’t let them succeed in theirdespicable and greedy attempt tohave their cake and eat it too.

Amarinder hopes distressing visuals offarmers will finally touch central govt Akali workers led by Billa stage

Xherdan Shaqiri's Liverpool future 'looks promising': Jurgen KloppLONDON: Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp was impressed with Xherdan Shaqiri's performance in Thursday's 7-2 win against Lincoln City in the League Cup and said his situation at the Premier League club "looks promising".The Switzerland international, making his first start since the Club World Cup last December, played in a slightly deeper midfield role and opened the scoring in the ninth minute with a stunning free-kick from the edge of the penalty area.Shaqiri, who joined Liverpool from Stoke City in 2018, has managed just 42 appearances in all competitions, with injuries and a loss of form dropping him down the pecking order.The addition of Thiago to Liverpool's already well-stocked midfield resources means Shaqiri will find playing time even more difficult to come by but Klopp gave little to suggest he is surplus to requirements."First of all it was a super game; a super game in a quite, I'm not sure, unfamiliar position. He did it really, really well," Klopp said."...There is no doubt about Shaq's quality, there was never any doubt and in the moment everything looks really, really good, it looks promising and we will see."
