Jaishankar at UNGA: Political convenience should not determine responses to extremism

External affairs minister S Jaishankar addressing the 78th UN General Assembly session in New York on Tuesday.&nbsp;

Amid the ongoing India-Canada diplomatic row, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday addressed the UNGA at New York
The minister told UNGA, "In our deliberations,"The power of markets should not be utilised to steer food and energy from the needy to the wealthy. Nor must we countenance that political convenience determines responses to terrorism, extremism and violence. Similarly, respect for territorial integrity and non-interference in internal affairs cannot be exercises in cherry-picking. When reality departs from rhetoric, we must have the courage to call it out..."
His remarks appears to be directed at Canada whose Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently alleged "potential" involvement of Indian agents in the killing of a Khalistani extremist leader on his country's soil on June 18 in British Columbia, a charge angrily rejected by New Delhi as "absurd" and "motivated".

The accused, posing as a dog trainer, is believed to have been involved in drug trafficking, as revealed by the substantial seizure.

Kerala police goes for drug raid, gets shocked. Here's why

The accused, posing as a dog trainer, is believed to have been involved in drug trafficking, as revealed by the substantial seizure.

A surprise search planned by the Anti-Narcotics squad of the Kottayam police at the house of a man suspected to be a drug dealer resulted in a shock for them due to the presence of several violent dogs trained to bite anyone wearing 'khaki' attire.
The presence of the dogs hindered the search process on Sunday night and also enabled the accused to escape from the police who were focused on avoiding the attacks of the canines.
However, the dogs were subdued and over 17 kilograms of ganja was seized from the site, police said.
Speaking to reporters, Kottayam SP K Karthick IPS said it was close to midnight when the search team, also comprising officers from the nearby Gandhinagar police station, arrived at the location.
"We did not expect there would be so many dogs here and that they would be violent. So, we faced difficulty initially in carrying out a proper search. Fortunately, none of the officers were injured.
"The accused had imparted training to the dogs to bite on seeing khaki. He had been briefly trained in dog handling by a person retired from the BSF, but was kicked out from there for asking questions like how to make dogs bite someone wearing khaki," the SP said.
The top officer of the district police also said the accused under the guise of being a dog trainer was selling drugs and the same was evident from the seizure of over 17 kgs of ganja from the site.
"According to our preliminary investigation, he (accused) was living here on rent and was known to everyone in the area as a dog trainer. Therefore, people used to leave their dogs with him, at the rate of Rs 1,000 per day, when they went outside and he would look after the canines," Karthick said.

Cauvery issue: Deve Gowda urges Modi to form committee

The JD(S) chief H D Deve Gowda has appealed to PM Modi to direct the Jal Shakti Ministry to appoint an external agency in the growing Cauvery water issue.

Former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda on Monday appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to direct the Jal Shakti Ministry to appoint an external agency, independent of the states that are party to the dispute and the union government, to conduct studies of all reservoirs in the Cauvery basin.
He also stressed the need to have an appropriate distress formula applicable to all the states concerned, in such distress conditions.
Noting that due to the failure of the Southwest monsoon (from June to September) this year, there is insufficient storage in the identified/designated four reservoirs of the Cauvery basin in Karnataka, he said the state is facing such a grave situation that it is finding it extremely difficult even to cater to the drinking water requirements, let alone for irrigation.
The Janata Dal (S) supremo released a copy of the September 23 letter that he wrote to the Prime Minister on issues of "resolving the ongoing disputes and differences between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu in the matter of releasing Cauvery waters from Karnataka reservoirs to Tamil Nadu", at a press conference here.
Deve Gowda said that the combined storage available as on September 23 in all four reservoirs of the Cauvery basin in Karnataka is only 51.10 TMC (thousand million cubic feet) whereas the requirement for standing crops and for drinking water is of 112 TMC.

J&K school 'abaya' row: Mehbooba Mufti alleges attack on religion

J&amp;K school 'abaya' row: Mehbooba Mufti alleges attack on religion

Amid a controversy over a Jammu and Kashmir school's order on the wearing of 'abaya' by girl students, former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti hit out at the authorities.
She called the choice of clothes and food a "constitutional right". Mufti asked authorities not to force people to do anything which is "against religion".
Earlier, the principal of the Vishwa Bharati School in Rainawari apologised for asking girl students not to wear an 'abaya', or long robe.

The ground floor of Ayodhya's Ram Temple will be completed in December this year, authorities said.

Ayodhya Ram Temple ground floor to be completed this year

The ground floor of Ayodhya's Ram Temple will be completed in December this year, authorities said.

The construction of the ground floor of the three-storey Ram temple in Ayodhya will be completed by December-end, and the consecration ceremony is expected to take place on January 22, temple Construction Committee Chairperson Nripendra Mishra has said.
In an interview to PTI, he also said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to take part in an event related to the 'pran pratishtha' on any day during January 20-24. The final date is yet to be communicated by the Prime Minister's Office, he said.
Mishra also said work is underway to design an apparatus that will be installed on the 'shikhar' of the temple, which will make sun rays fall momentarily on the forehead of the deity in the sanctum sanctorum on the day of Ram Navami every year.
It is being built in Bengaluru and its design is being overseen by scientists, he added.
The Central Building Research Institute, Roorkee, and an institute in Pune have jointly created a computerised programme for this, Mishra said.
The Supreme Court in a 2019 verdict had paved the way for the construction of a Ram temple by a trust at the disputed site in Ayodhya, and directed the Centre to allot an alternative five-acre plot to the Sunni Waqf Board for building a new mosque at a "prominent" place in the holy town of Uttar Pradesh.
The court had ruled that the 2.77 acres of the disputed land where the demolished 16th century-era Babri Masjid once stood will remain with a Central government receiver and be handed over to the trust within three months of the ruling for the construction of the temple.
The Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust will formally invite Prime Minister Modi for the consecration ceremony during which the idol of Ram Lalla will be installed in the sanctum sanctorum of the temple.

The temple trust has decided to start the process of the consecration of Ram Lalla after Makar Sankranti on January 14, and observe a 10-day ritual of Ram Lalla's 'pran pratishtha' (consecration).
The Ram temple in Ayodhya is likely to open for devotees on January 24 after the consecration of Ram Lalla idol, Mishra, a member of the trust, had said in June.
In response to a query during the interview, Mishra did not reject the suggestion that the ceremony taking place ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls shall have political implications.
"It was planned to complete the construction of the ground floor of the temple by December 2023 and this work will definitely be completed within the stipulated time," he said.
He said the temple is being constructed with a vision that its structure will last at least 1,000 years The 'pran pratishtha' will be started in consultation with knowledgable saints and sages, Mishra added.
He said a committee under the trust's general secretary Champat Rai has been set up which is working the details of this planned ceremony.
"When the ceremony takes place on January 22 next year, then there is a huge rush expected. The trust has urged people to see it from their homes, villages (via television broadcast)," the chairman of the temple's construction committee said.
The Prime Minister's Office is yet to inform as to on what date he will attend the 'pran pratistha'-related ceremony, Mishra said, adding the trust will announce it when the final programme comes.
But it is expected to be during January 20-24 as after that the PM will be very busy with Republic Day and other programmes, Mishra said.
When asked about the plan for devotees who will come after the consecration ceremony, he said, they will get 15-20 seconds time to for a 'darshan', but they will be satisfied with the overall experience at the temple complex.
On the temple architecture and construction material, Mishra said, iron has not been used in its construction, and copper has been used to link stone blocks.
The built-up area of the temple is 2.5 acres and if one includes the 'parikrama path' the total area of the complex is about eight acres, he said.
Ninety bronze panels will depict the life and duties performed by Lord Ram, he added.
He also said about Rs 900 crore has been spent so far on the temple's construction, and it is estimated that about Rs 1,700 crore to 1,800 crore will be spent on the overall construction of the complex.
Mishra said some artefacts were unearthed during excavations by the Archeological Survey of India (ASI) and some objects were found during the temple's groundbreaking and construction work.

Some of these items have been placed safely under the custody of the trust, Mishra said. "After taking permission from the ASI, we will display these in a proposed museum." Asked about the invitees for the consecration ceremony, he said, a preliminary list of 10,000 people is being prepared, which will include saints, seers, people associated with Ram temple movement etc, he added.
