https://indianexpress.com/article/india/un-refugee-chief-urges-india-to-ensure-no-one-left-stateless-nrc-assam-5956490/
Berlin:Top UN refugee official has urged India to ensure that no one is left stateless by the exclusion of nearly 2 million people from a citizenship list in Assam. Filippo Grandi, UN high commissioner for refugees, voiced his concern in a statement. He said that “any process that could leave large numbers of people without a nationality would be an enormous blow to global efforts to eradicate statelessness.”He urged India to ensure no one ends up stateless, “including by ensuring adequate access to information, legal aid, and legal recourse in accordance with the highest standards of due process.”AP
NRC: BJP 'Loses Hope' in Assam, But Its Delhi, Telangana Leaders Want Similar Exercise
https://thewire.in/politics/assam-nrc-bjp-telangana-delhi-implement
New Delhi:Even as BJP changes its stance on NRC in Assam, saying ‘genuine Indians’ have been left out of the register, leaders of the party’s Telangana and Delhi units have demanded that the exercise be replicated in their respective states.Even before NRC was released, BJP began expressing apprehensions that it would not be “error-free”.Assam finance minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that BJP has “lost hope in the present form of NRC” right after the draft. “When so many genuine Indians are out, then how can you claim that this document is a red-letter for Assamese society,” he said. He said, “this NRC won’t help us get rid of foreigners”. .As Sangeeta Barooah Pisharoty wrote recently, BJP’s stance on NRC has changed because of the possibility that a significant number of Bengali Hindus could also be excluded. The community is a voter base of BJP. However, BJP seems to be singing a different tune in Delhi and Telangana. Party leaders from both states have claimed that number of undocumented immigrants has increased and suggested NRC exercise as a remedy. thewire
NRC: 2 sisters submit same document, one included, other excluded

Guwahati: 2 sisters who submitted the same document to get their names included in NRC in Assam have met with contrasting fates -- one was included but other was excluded.This is not an isolated case. There are reports of hundreds of other cases where some members of a family were included but others were not. After their morning tea on Saturday, Mukul Bose, 51, and her daughter, Mousumi, sat together to check if the names of their family members were included in NRC. Mukul was praying. She was shocked when Mousumi told her she had been excluded.While filing for NRC, Mukul had submitted the land document of her father. Her sister, Shefali Baidya, too had submitted this document. Shefali made it to the list but Mukul did not.“This is an injustice. How can one sister be excluded and the other included based on the same document which they submitted to NRC authorities?” argued Mousumi, who is a post-graduate. “We cannot accept this. We will fight till the end,” she said.“She wonders how it is possible. She had submitted all her documents establishing her linkage to her father Khagendra Nath Basu. We celebrated her 50th birthday last year with much fanfare. She was born in this country. Sadly, she is now faced with a nationality crisis,” a worried Mousumi lamented. newindianexpress

Guwahati: Basiron Bewa, 57, went door to door in her village Karbala in Goalpara district to arrange sureties for her son Batchu Ali.Now back home at Karbala, 39-year-old Batchu says he got the news in jail on August 4 that she had died, and was allowed to pay his last respects. Breaking down over the phone, he says he got his release orders finally on Aug.9. “She was not there when I came out…All these years, she would visit me once or twice a month. But in July, after the Supreme Court order, she came 5-6 times, as she was trying to get me out…Maybe all the hectic activity took a toll.”For Nur Mohammed Ali, a daily wager in Goalpara, the release came as swiftly as the arrest — without announcement or warning. On a winter morning of 2010, Nur was picked up and deposited in a jail 15 km away on the grounds of being an “illegal foreigner”. In the waning summer of 2019, the 61-year-old was released.Both times, Nur was taken by surprise. So when his cousin Ibrahim Ali came to receive him on Aug.9, Nur burst into tears and fainted in his arms right after stepping out of Goalpara District Jail. An SC bench led by CJI had ordered on May 10 that “declared foreigners” who had spent over 3 years in detention camps could secure conditional release on the fulfilment of certain conditions: a bond with 2 sureties of Rs 1 lakh each, a verifiable address of stay after release, biometrics of iris and prints of all 10 fingers, and appearance before a specified police station once a week.

AIDUF Changes Stand on NRC Final List, Thanks SC in Resolving the Foreigners' Issue in Assam
https://www.news18.com/news/politics/aiduf-changes-stand-on-nrc-final-list-thanks-sc-in-resolving-the-foreigners-issue-in-assam-2292173.html
Guwahati: In a shift of stand over updation of NRC in Assam, AIUDF has thanked Supreme Court for taking the initiative to ascertain genuine citizens.The foreigners issue in the state has been festering for the last 40 years but no Govt was willing to resolve it. It was the Supreme Court which took initiative of NRC updation to ascertain the genuine citizens,AIUDF spokesman and MLA Aminul Islam said.Till now all Muslims in Assam were wrongly referred to as Bangladeshis. "But at least NRC has helped to establish who is an Indian or a foreigner," he said."It will be premature to say whether we are satisfied or dissatisfied with the final NRC, but it is a step towards resolving foreigners' issue in Assam and this has been possible only due to the initiative of the SC," he said. AIDUF earlier alleged that some officers associated with NRC have been given verbal orders by different quarters to include names of people belonging to a particular religion and delete those belonging to another.

In family of 52, four out of draft NRC, 45 out now
https://indianexpress.com/article/north-east-india/assam/in-family-of-52-four-out-of-draft-assam-nrc-45-out-now-5955099/
The extended family of Iman Ali (62) is almost completely excluded from the final NRC published on Saturday. 52 members of his joint family used the legacy of his father Joranuddin Sheikh, and on Saturday only 7 of them found themselves in NRC.“Around 10.30 am, I went to a store in the village market which has a laptop, to check my status on NRC website. I found that we had been excluded,” Ali said.“Over the last two years, I have been one of the most active local campaigners for the NRC, urging people to apply and helping them with hearings and filing documents.”Ali, a farmer and former president of the Hatishala local market committee, said the problem was in his father’s name.“He was actually Joyanuddin Sheikh.But in 1966 voters’ list that we submitted for NRC, it is spelt as Joranuddin Sheikh. We were all included earlier —- only four of the 52 of us were excluded from the draft NRC,” he said.“But then there was an ‘objection’ filed against me, my two cousins and one uncle,” pointed out Mizanur Rehman, Ali’s eldest son, a tractor driver.“We went for the hearing regarding the objection. The objector did not come and we don’t personally know the person who filed it. During the hearing we were asked the reason for the difference between ‘Joyanuddin’ and ‘Joranuddin’ in the documents. We realised the problem and said we have a land document of 1964 which mentions our grandfather’s name as ‘Joyanuddin’, the actual name. But they disallowed that,” Rehman said.indianexpress
40 yrs of hanging on to a driving licence… ‘now this’

Silchar :In the summer of 1982, Bushan Das, a resident of Udayan Nagar colony on the outskirts of southern Assam’s Silchar, had got his driving licence. For 18-year-old, whose father made a living washing dishes, it was a big deal.Over the years, driving a Tata Sumo across Assam, Das wielded the card as a “hathiyar (weapon)” whenever he found himself in a spot of trouble.On Saturday, Das, now 55, stood outside an NRC Seva Kendra (NSK) in Tarapur, clutching a folder of documents, including driving licence. It’s been more than a year that Das gave up driving (his sugar had shot up and his liver was giving trouble), but the little card remained on his person.However, on Saturday, the card did not work its magic. Das’s 25-year-old son Biswajeet emerged from NSK to tell him he was out.As Das stood dispondent, a bystander sympathised, “Maha shomshya (What a big mess).”indianexpress

Manmohan slams all-round mismanagement by Modi govt, says we are in midst of 'prolonged slowdown'
https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/former-pm-manmohan-singh-slams-all-round-mismanagement-by-modi-govt-says-we-are-in-midst-of-prolonged-slowdown/articleshow/70931547.cms
New Delhi: The country is in the midst of a prolonged slowdown, ex PM Manmohan Singh said as he held the "all-round mismanagement" by Modi Govt responsible for the ongoing economic crisis in the country. "State of economy is deeply worrying. Last quarter GDP growth rate of 5% signals that we are in midst of prolonged slowdown," ex PM was quoted as saying by PTI. Singh said that the economic policies of the current Govt are resulting in massive job loses and urged it to consult "all sane voices" to help the economy get back on track. "The country has the potential to grow at much faster rate. Reach out to all sane voices to steer economy out of this man-made crisis," he said. Singh said it is particularly distressing that the manufacturing sector's growth is tottering at 0.6 %. This makes it very clear that our economy has not yet recovered from the man-made blunders of demonetisation and a hastily implemented GST," he said. "Investor sentiments are in doldrums. These are not the foundations for economic recovery," he added. Ex- PM alleged that institutions are under attack and their autonomy is being eroded. On Govt taking Rs 1.76 lakh crore from RBI reserves, Singh said the resilience of RBI will be tested after this record transfer to the Govt. This, he said, "claims that it does not have a plan on what it will do with this windfall". Noting that domestic demand is depressed and consumption growth is at an 18-month low and nominal GDP growth is at a 15 year low, he said, "There is a gaping hole in tax revenues.Tax buoyancy remains elusive as businessmen, small and big, are hounded and tax terrorism continues unabated. Investor sentiments are in doldrums. These are not the foundations for economic recovery". Blaming the Modi govt's policies for massive job-less growth, he said more than 3.5 lakh jobs have been lost in the automobile sector alone. There will similarly be large-scale job losses in the informal sector, hurting most vulnerable workers, he said. He said rural India is in terrible shape as farmers are not receiving adequate prices and rural incomes have declined. The low inflation rate that the Modi Govt likes to showcase comes at the cost of our farmers and their incomes, by inflicting misery on over 50 % of India's population, he alleged. Singh, a noted economist, said the credibility of India's data has come under question under this Govt. "Budget announcements and rollbacks have shaken the confidence of international investors. India has not been able to increase its exports to take advantage of opportunities that have arisen in global trade due to geopolitical realignments. Such is the state of economic management under Modi Govt,"he alleged. TOI

Sikh girl who was allegedly forced to convert to Islam refuses to go home: Pak official
https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/sikh-girl-forced-convert-islam-refuses-home-pak-official-1593980-2019-09-01
Lahore:Sikh girl, who was allegedly abducted and converted to Islam before being married to a Muslim man in Pakistan's Punjab province, on Saturday refused to go home despite the provincial governor's plea, fearing threat to her life, an official said.Punjab Governor Chaudhary Muhammad Sarwar met the girl at a shelter home in Lahore and requested her to go back to her family but she refused, citing a threat to her life, he said.The girl, who is the daughter of a Sikh priest, was on Friday sent to Darul Aman (shelter home) on a court order after she told the judge that she married Mohammad Hassan of her locality with her own free will. Kaur's family alleged that she was converted to Islam at gunpoint and forced to marry a Muslim boy. Her family says she is 18 years of age.On Saturday, Governor Sarwar met with the Sikh girl at Lahore’s Darul Aman and tried his best to persuade her to return her parents’ home but she declined, an official of Punjab Govt told PTI.He said the girl told the governor that she loved Hassan and married him with her own free will. Kaur said she feared for her life if she returned to her parents’ home in Nankana Sahib. Police on Saturday detained 10 more people, including relatives and friends of Hassan, in connection with the case. The official said that the governor even told her that "her marrying a man outside her religion is becoming a religious matter and there has been tension in Nankana Sahib among Sikhs and Muslims, but she did not budge.

Former Deputy CM of Punjab and a senior Akali Dal leader, Sukhbir Badal, has taken a dig at the ‘leaderless’ Muslim community by comparing the Operation Bluestar of 1984 and the demolition of Babri Masjid by Hindutva fanatics in 1992.Badal said that while Muslims never forgave the BJP for the demolition of their place of worship on 6 Dec.1992, Sikhs were still voting the Congress to power despite its military operations inside Golden Temple in1984. “See, Congress attacked Darbar Sahib (Golden Temple) with tanks and our people still vote for them. On the other hand, you see the case of Babri Masjid…it is said that BJP did it. I don’t want to say it… but has any Muslim ever voted for the party?” NDTV quoted Sukhbir Badal, now an MP, as saying.Badal, whose wife is a minister in Centre’s Modi Govt, was addressing a group of Sikh religious organisations after praying at the Golden Temple in Amritsar.Badal also took a dig at the Muslim community for their inability to unite and protest the rampant lynchings of those belonging to their faith. He said that this was because Muslims in India had no leaders.“I don’t want to take the names of other communities which don’t have leaders and are in a shambles. I am just quoting a very minor incident where a Sikh driver was assaulted and the accused had to lose his job only because we are united. Followers of many religions are being assaulted every day and nobody even cares about them,” Badal, according to NDTV, added.jantakareporter

Former Kolkata mayor Sovan Chatterjee, who joined BJP earlier this month, has expressed desire to quit the saffron fold for being “regularly humiliated”, his close associate Baishakhi Banerjee claimed. Chatterjee, a 4-time TMC MLA, had joined BJP along with Banerjee in New Delhi on 14 Aug.“Since joining BJP, we are being regularly humiliated and insulted without any reason. Sovan Chatterjee had taken a sabbatical from active politics. It was I who played a key role in bringing him back and made him join BJP,” she told reporters.“If we are being humiliated, then we could have stayed back in TMC only. Therefore, we have expressed our desire to leave the party. If needed, we would send our resignation to the BJP leadership.”PTI
Finding something good Modi has done is like looking for needle in haystack: Khurshid
https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/finding-something-good-modi-has-done-is-like-looking-for-needle-in-haystack-khurshid/articleshow/70933004.cms
New Delhi: Finding something good PM Narendra Modi has done would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, senior Congress leader Salman Khurshid said today, days after some party leaders called for praising the PM whenever he does good work. Khurshid also said the Congress has "very serious concerns" about how the country is being run. His remarks come days after Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said Modi's governance model is not a "complete negative story" and not recognising his work and demonising him all the time is not going to help. "From my point of view, it would be (like) looking for a needle in a haystack to find something good that he (Modi) has done," Khurshid told PTI. PTI

Senior BJP leaders Bhagat Singh Koshyari and Tamilisai Soundararajan were appointed as Governors of Maharashtra and Telangana on Sunday.

The post was under the dual charge of ESL Narasimhan, who was Governor of Andhra Pradesh before its bifurcation. He recently demitted office. Koshyari replaces Vidya Sagar Rao, whose 5-year term came to an end. This proves that Modi Govt accords top priority to true secular values by appointing Arif Moh., as governor. Former civil aviation minister Khan takes over as the Governor of Kerala, replacing P Sathasivam, the former chief justice of India whose five-year term came to an end. Dattatreya has been appointed as the Governor of Himachal Pradesh replacing Kalraj Mishra, who moves to Rajasthan. PTI

Kochi: Ask Abdul Khader Raheem Kolliyil about the experience of being chased by police after an intelligence alert flashed him as a terror suspect and channels started running breaking news on him. One can see intense fear building up on his face. The events that happened in his life between Aug 22 and Aug 27, during which he surrendered and was subsequently released from police custody, still haunt 39-year-old Kodungalloor native and he knows things could have been far worse if it was not for his timely decision to surrender in court, expressing his willingness to undergo interrogation. Of course, Khader is now a relieved man as he has managed to convince security agencies about how a few influential people in Bahrain, whom he had antagonised, framed him as a terror suspect in an act of vengeance.newindianexpress

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/09/houthis-saudi-led-coalition-bombs-yemen-prison-kills-dozens-190901075603392.html
Dozens of people have been killed when a Saudi-UAE-led military coalition battling the Houthi rebel movement bombed a prison in western Yemen, according to the rebels. Yusuf al-Hadri, a spokesman for Houthis' ministry of health, said at least 60 people were killed in Sunday's air raids which hit a complex used as a detention centre north of Dhamar city. 50 people were wounded, he told rebel-run Al Masirah TV, adding that 185 prisoners of war were being held overall at the Dhamar Community College. Nazem Saleh was among those held at the facility. "We were sleeping and around midnight, there were maybe three, or four, or six strikes," he told AP."They were targeting the jail, I really don't know the strike numbers ... We were 100 persons on the ground level and around 150 on the upper level," he said while on a stretcher in a local hospital.In a statement carried on Saudi state TV, the coalition said it had launched air raids on Houthi military targets in Dhamar and destroyed a site storing drones and missiles.aljazeera

Taliban attacks 2nd Afghan city as talks with US wrap up

Taliban has launched an attack on the capital of northern Afghanistan's Baghlan province and gun battles with Govt forces are ongoing, according to an official, overshadowing increasing expectations over a peace deal between the group and US aimed at ending 18 years of war.There was no immediate word on any casualties but Jawed Basharat, spokesman for the provincial police chief, said on Sunday that fighting continued on outskirts of Puli Khumri.The early-morning attack came a day after hundreds of Taliban fighters overran parts of Kunduz, one of Afghanistan's largest cities, in a major show of strength as group wrapped up another round of peace talks with US in Qatar. The assault on Kunduz set off a day of gun battles, with the Afghan military deploying reinforcements and using air power to repel fighters. On Sunday, interior ministry said the Taliban had been cleared from Kunduz but some fighters had fled to Baghlan."We hear the sound of blasts. The people [Puli Khumri] are so worried," Safdar Mohsini, chief of the Baghlan provincial council, told AP.If the Taliban enter the city they will be very difficult to repel, Mohsini added, saying security forces at some checkpoints had run away without resistance. The city, which is home to over 200,000 people, is located 230km north of Kabul.The attack in Baghlan came hours after Zalmay Khalilzad, US envoy heading the negotiations with the Taliban, said he raised the Kunduz attack in his talks with the group in Doha and told its representatives "violence like this must stop". Taliban has long demanded a complete withdrawal of foreign troops to "end the occupation" in Afghanistan.The attacks on Saturday and Sunday are seen as strengthening the Taliban's negotiating position in the talks with Khalilzad, who, for nearly a year, has sought a deal on a US troop withdrawal in exchange for Taliban guarantees that Afghanistan will not be used as a launchpad for attacks outside country.Intizar Khadim, a political analyst in Kabul, told Al Jazeera, that Taliban was taking "calculative steps".After the end of the ninth round of talks in the early hours of Sunday, Khalilzad said he was headed to Kabul to brief the Afghan Govt. He said the US and Taliban are "at the threshold of an agreement". Suhail Shaheen, Taliban's political spokesman in Doha, said talks between the 2 sides were a "success"."At 2pm today, we will be talking with a small group of US officials on technical issues of the deal." aljazeera
