Even as Opposition parties up the ante over alleged incidents of religious reconversion, the Dharm Jagran Samiti has declared that it will ensure India becomes a Hindu Rashtra by 2021.
Licence to stay
Speaking in Agra on Thursday, a Dharm Jagran Samiti (DJS) functionary said Muslims and Christians will have to convert to Hinduism if they want to stay in this country.
The DJS has been at the forefront of the reconversion - or ghar wapsi - programmes in recent times in which some Muslims have been reportedly reconverted to Hinduism.

Conversion has become a major political hot potato with a few Hindu organisations holding ghar wapsi ceremoniesthe photo shows one such exercise in Agrato reconvert Muslims

However, their action drew widespread condemnation, leading to the arrest of one activist.

Our target is to make India a Hindu Rashtra by 2021. The Muslims and Christians dont have any right to stay here.
So they would either be converted to Hinduism or forced to run away from here, Uttar Pradesh DJS head Rajeshwar Singh said.
He was reacting to the arrest of Nand Kishore Valmiki, a DJS activist.
Valmiki was arrested on Tuesday for his alleged involvement in forcefully converting over 100 Muslims to Hinduism in Agra.
Singh said although he has temporarily suspended his ghar wapsi programme in Aligarh and some other districts of the state that were supposed to be held on December 25, it would be restarted soon.
The DJS leader claimed that those who have been opposing ghar wapsi were fearful of Muslims.
But, he would set India free from this fear, he added.
I belong to the Solanki sub-caste within the Rajput caste. The Thakurs (Rajputs) respect me. I am their leader and they follow my orders.
The Muslims had converted Rajputs to Islam by force. But the Rajputs are rising again.
I will ensure that India is freed of Muslims and Christians by December 31, 2021, Singh said.
In Etah, Singh reiterated his stand, saying he wouldnt let Muslims and Christians convert the Hindus.
We will not let them hunt the Hindus, he said.
The enemies have tried many a time in the past to finish Hinduism. But every time, Ram, Krishna and Chanakya came forward to finish them and restore the glory of Hinduism.
I am also doing the same.
Explaining the DJS plans, Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) secretary general Champat Rai told Mail Today: We are of the view that there are a handful of Muslims in India.
Others within the Muslim community are actually Hindus. Their ancestors were converted to Islam forcefully.
Even writer Taslima Nasrin has said that her ancestors were Hindus. The Batts, who are Muslims in Jammu and Kashmir, are actually Bhatts, the Hindus.
Rai claimed ghar wapsi has been an ongoing VHP campaign for the last 60 years.
A resolution in this regard was passed during the 1966 Maha Kumbh in Allahabad, he said.
We have re-inducted over six lakh people into Hinduism since 1966.
Mahatma Gandhi, Savarkar and Swami Dayanand Saraswati had expressed their concern over religious conversion.

Uttar Pradesh DJS head Rajeshwar Singh claimed that those who have been opposing ghar wapsi were fearful of Muslims

They believed it was poisoning the society. Bringing them back to their original religion means correcting the wrong.
"It is the appropriate time now to take it up on a bigger scale, he added.
A Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) leader told Mail Today that they have formed committees in every district of the state for this purpose.
We have included some Arya Samaj priests in the team because they issue a certificate to a converted person.
"This is a major document to prove that the converted person agrees to it, he said.
'Independent'
When asked about the posture of the Modi Government on this issue, he said: We never ask Modi or any other BJP leader before chalking out our strategy.
We only expect them to speak for or against us to clarify their stand. But Modi is the Prime Minister.
So his silence means his approval. It is the right time for us to fulfil our agenda.
UP minister Azam Khan said: RSS is behaving like the Taliban. They dont want the Constitution of India.
They have their own agenda of finishing humanism.
Meanwhile, reacting sharply to the DJS statement, Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh said: DJS is a wing of RSS, which had supported Modi and the BJP during the Lok Sabha elections.
They are now drifting away from the agenda of the NDA.
He dared the Modi Government to either accept the activities of DJS or show some guts and disband it.



Modi stands firm despite challenges from Rajya Sabha

By Amit Agnihotri
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has rejected the Oppositions demand that he reply to the ongoing debate in the Rajya Sabha on alleged forced conversions.
His decision emboldened the ruling dispensation to blame the Oppositions arrogance of numbers for the ongoing logjam in the Upper House that threatens to derail the Governments economic reform agenda.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitley pointed to the smooth functioning of the Lok Sabha, saying the Rajya Sabha hold-up points to arrogance of numbers, not the arrogance of the Government.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is said to be upset with the Opposition after he made a statement on the Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti controversy, but the logjam in the Rajya Sabha continued despite his address to the House

The Opposition hit back, saying the Governments tyranny of majority had ensured that the Lower House functioned smoothly despite nine parties fighting tooth and nail on the issue of conversions.
While the Government has a brute majority in the Lower House, the Opposition has an upper hand in the Rajya Sabha.
Prime Minister Modi is said to have asked the Government to remain firm in the face of the Oppositions attack on conversion, and suggested explaining its position directly to the people.
Nine opposition parties have kept the Government on its toes by not letting the Rajya Sabha function for the past four days, seeking the PMs statement on the controversial issue of conversions, wherein Muslims have been reconverted to Hinduism by way of ghar wapsi ceremonies.

FM Arun Jaitley said Congress in the Rajya Sabha were suffering from the 'arrogance of numbers'

The PM came to the Upper House on Thursday as it was the designated day he was supposed to answer questions related to ministries under him, but there was no word from him on the Oppositions demand.
Sources said the PM had made a statement in both houses of Parliament earlier in the session, ticking off his junior colleague Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti for her controversial remarks, but that had not led to smooth functioning of the House.
The betrayal by the Opposition, sources said, was playing on the PMs mind and is what drove him to ask his team to remain firm.
The PM has confidence in his ministers. If he feels the need to intervene on any issue, he will, but not under the Oppositions threat, a Union minister said.
The Government sources, however, acknowledged that given the deadlock, the Winter Session, which ends December 23, might end without key reform Bills related to insurance and coal sectors passing muster.
The Governments strategy now is to break the united Opposition camp to make the most of the three working days left in the session.
They hope that the move could help it pass at least the insurance Bill which aims to increase the FDI cap to 49 per cent.

(AP) Democrats on Thursday seized on a 10-year-old voter registration document for Gov. Nikki Haley to claim the Republican uses her Indian-American heritage when it's convenient because it lists her race as "W" for white.


  • By Brett Flashnick, AP
    Gov. Nikki Haley delivers her first State of the State address at the South Carolina Statehouse in Columbia, S.C., on Jan. 19.
By Brett Flashnick, AP
Gov. Nikki Haley delivers her first State of the State address at the South Carolina Statehouse in Columbia, S.C., on Jan. 19.





Haley was elected the state's first female governor in November and the nation's second Indian-American chief executive. She is also the first governor of Sikh heritage.
Her parents emigrated from India and Haley was born in Bamberg County, South Carolina, a county split between whites and blacks. Born Nimrata Randhawa, she frequently credits her different heritage with helping her get beyond race and finding problems that many have in common.
South Carolina Democratic Party Chairman **** Harpootlian said the 2001 document the party unearthed shows the 39-year-old Haley plays on her race for political convenience.
"She can't even tell the truth about her racial heritage," Harpootlian said.
Haley spokesman Trey Walker said the governor's office did not plan to respond to the Democrats. State Republican Party Executive Director Matt Moore called Harpootlian's criticism "just more theatrics and that's all there is to it."
Haley's 2001 voter registration application was derived from information already on her driver's license.
It was not clear when that information may have been provided, or what options were even available on the form for racial identifiers when it was given.
South Carolina's current driver's license application asks people to identify their race as white, black, Hispanic, Asian or Indian, according to instructions for the form. It doesn't specify whether the description "Indian" refers to someone who is American Indian or of Asian Indian heritage, but it traditionally refers to Native American on government forms.
The voter application Haley signed in March 2001 first was obtained by Democrats. The Associated Press independently viewed a copy Thursday provided by the Lexington County Commission of Registration and Elections.
State Election Commission spokesman Chris Whitmire said so-called motor voter forms have much of their information filled out automatically at Department of Motor Vehicle offices using driver's license information already on file.
Nearly all of the information on Haley's 2001 application was automatically filled out. The only handwriting on the form is her signature and the date.
A state agency spokesman said privacy laws prohibit the release of Haley's driver's license application. It's unclear how she may have identified herself when getting it renewed.
Whitmire and Dean Crepes, the Lexington voter registration and election director, said people can list anything they want for race on voter forms.
Whitmire said race information is important because it helps the state gather statistical data that is used to show whether the state is complying with the federal Voting Rights Act and not discriminating against voters.

India is not a secular state, it favours Hindu religion and their laws favour Hindus. There is no secular logic or reasoning behind banning beef.

The reason why Western countries are ahead is because they have laws based on secular reasoning and logic. The reason why other countries are behind is because they have laws based on personal belief systems or religions and not based on reasoning or logic.
This was an explanation give by an Ottoman cleric Ibrahim Muteferrika.
We should learn from Turkey because its an older country and their society is more mature than Pakistan's. They have gone through all the childhood period of Islamic republic and caliphate, they are a secular state for a reason. Because you cannot have a country prosper if the laws are not based on proper discussion, reasoning and argument.

Trump appoints Indian-origin Ajit Pai, known for anti-net neutrality stance, as communication watchdog chief

[FONT=&amp]IANS[FONT=&amp]Jan, 24 2017 13:16:14 IST[/FONT]

New York: President Donald Trump has appointed Ajit Pai to head the powerful US communications regulatory agency, becoming the third Indian American picked for key positions in his administration.
Pai, 44, will be the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the federal authority regulating cellphone spectrum and services, radio, television, phone, internet and satellite and cable.
Pai announced his appointment on Twitter, saying he was told of it on Monday and that "it is a deeply humbling honour". He added that he would work to bring the benefits of the digital age to all Americans.
The FCC also has a major role in controlling the content of television and radio, a sensitive issue given Trump's contentious relations with the media.
This afternoon, I was informed that @POTUS@realDonaldTrump designated me the 34th Chairman of the @FCC. It is a deeply humbling honor. pic.twitter.com/Joza18aP33
— Ajit Pai (@AjitPaiFCC) January 23, 2017
The agency sets and enforces certain norms on content like obscenity in TV and conditions like having a certain amount of local news content for stations to keep their licences.
Underscoring its importance, Representative Frank Pallone said: "By some measures, the FCC oversees approximately one sixth of the US economy."
Nikki Haley, Trump's nominee for the cabinet-level post of US ambassador to the UN, is scheduled to be recommended on Tuesday by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for approval by the entire Senate for the job.

Another Trump nominee is Seema Verma, who is to head the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the agency for government health insurance programmes.
Already a member of the FCC, Pai will succeed Tom Wheeler, a Democrat, who quit recently.
A free enterprise advocate, Pai has been a critic of the functioning of the FCC and clashed with its Democratic Party leadership. Recently he took issue with an FCC report that questioned the legality of offerings given free of charge for people to access online music, videos and other content.
He has said he wants to end net neutrality, which prevents internet service providers from giving special preferences to certain web sites or accept payment from a web service to give it priority or better access.
Democrats expressed their concern about Pai's role in a letter to him.
The senior Democrat on the House Committee on Energy and Commerce that deals with communications wrote to him saying his success would depend on being responsive to members of Congress from both parties and working for consensus on major decisions.
Before his appointment to the FCC in 2012, Pai had worked as a lawyer for the telephone and communications giant Verizon, the Senate Judicial Committee and the Justice Department.
Pai's parents, both doctors, immigrated from India.
Trump has also appointed an expert on strategic communications and political research, Raj Shah, as deputy assistant and research director on the White House staff.
Another Indian American, Balaji Srinivasan, is under consideration to head the Federal Drug Administration (FDA), according to Sean Spicer, Trump's spokesperson.
Srinivasan is a biotechnology entrepreneur who has been critical of the connections between large pharmaceutical companies and FDA. He now heads a start-up that deals with bitcoin, the internet-based currency.

'Many Indian Americans in running for place in Trump govt'

PTI | Nov 30, 2016, 03.11 PM IST
55704300.jpg


WASHINGTON: Several Indian Americans are being considered for positions in the Trump administration as they all qualify on merit and ethnicity is not an issue, the highest ranking Indian-origin politician in the Republican party has said.

"I know of several Indian Americans in consideration for positions. I am not at liberty to mention their names, but there are many people under consideration for positions in a Trump administration," Harmeet Dhillon, a member of the Republican National Committee, told PTI.

President-elect Donald Trump has already created history by nominating Nikki Haley, Republican governor of South Carolina, for the Cabinet-level position of US Ambassador to the UN.If confirmed by the Senate, Haley would be the first Indian American to serve in the cabinet of a presidential administration.

Chandigarh-born Dhillon, who opened the second night of the Republican Convention in Cleveland in July by delivering a Sikh prayer, said unlike the Democrats, the Republican party recognises people based on merit and not ethnicity.
"The new administration is going to place people according to merit. I do not think they have any particular goal of placing Indian Americans versus other ethnic groups. I think they would be looking to put the best people in the position. I am sure in that process many qualified Indian Americans would become part of the administration," she said.
San Francisco-based Dhillon, 47, an experienced lawyer of repute, said she would also be willing to consider a senior position in the administration.
"If I am asked to serve in a senior capacity, I will certainly consider it. Of course, the focus right now is on Cabinet level appointment at this time," she said.
Dhillon said she is encouraged by the top picks so far by president-elect Trump.


"(The RNC Chairman) Reince Priebus (who has been picked as White House Chief of Staff) is certainly somebody who I know personally and respect. He is going to be the president's right hand man. His choices are solid. Many of the people who I have seen coming in and out with the president-elect are really outstanding people," she said.
"I think, his main challenge is out of many, many great qualified Americans going to help, which one does he pick," Dhillon said.


On the view that the Democratic party believes in "politics of racial identity ... women, black or Indian," Dhillon asserted that this is not the case with Republicans.
"We do not do that in our party. We focus on things that are common to all Americans: employment, taxes, national security, liberty, regulations, running a business. This is how we approach the electorate," she said

Rachel Smalley: Indian students need to go or will be forcefully Deported

The nine Indian students who are facing deportation for visa fraud and are living temporarily in a Church in the Auckland suburb of Ponsonby.

What a position they're in, and what a position Immigration New Zealand is in, too, writes Rachel Smalley.

The students signed their visa applications and in doing so, they signed fraudulent documents filled out by their agents. They paid those agents in India to help them to apply for a New Zealand visa, and it is the agents - they say - who are at fault here.

Not so. It is they who are at fault and whether it's knowingly or unknowingly, the students have committed fraud.


I have been through a similar process. I married a South African in London and when our son was one, we moved to New Zealand.

It was all quite sudden. I had a week until I was on-air hosting Nightline on TV3 and I was trying to find somewhere to live, so I employed an agent to look after my husband's visa.

You have to jump through a lot of hoops to get a resident's visa... in our case, we had to prove our marriage wasn't a sham, both of us needed police checks from the British Police and in my husband's case, from South Africa too. He needed full medicals, authenticated birth certificates, proof that we'd lived together for some time... you name it, we needed it. And that's why I used an agent.

And when we came to sign that final application, it stated very clearly that a signature was verification that everything in that application true and correct. It doesn't matter if you've used an agent - it is you, the applicant, who is liable if anything is incorrect. And I remember spending a lot of time going through that visa application because if Immigration New Zealand finds something wrong with it, you can find yourself on pretty shaky ground.

So while I have some compassion for the plight of these students, the law is the law. T
heir applications are fraudulent. They cannot be allowed to stay in this country. Imagine the precedent that would set? They can leave the country by their own free will, or be forcefully deported. If police have to enter that church and forcefully deport them, then so be it.

And I also question the role of the Church in this. The Unitarian Church. These nine students are not asylum seekers. They are not going to face political or religious persecution if they return to India. Their lives are not at risk so quite why the Church has stepped in here is a little baffling. The Church is sheltering illegal immigrants who have committed fraud. That is not the role of The Church. That is not, in my opinion, God's work.

Police, in the end, will likely have to forcefully deport them. I suspect they'll do it at night when the TV cameras and the media aren't around - but that is the only acceptable outcome in this. There is no other option but deportation.

India's great Trump hope

Sarosh Bana For The Straits Times

Newly installed US President Donald Trump may be in a hurry to overturn many measures of the previous Obama administration, but a significant area he appears to seek continuity in is the close partnership America has enjoyed with India.
Within five days of assuming office, Mr Trump made a telephone call to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to re-emphasise Washington's closeness to New Delhi.
It was by all accounts a courtesy call, but important in its symbolism, the President hailing India as a true friend and partner in addressing challenges around the world. According to a White House read-out on the call, the two leaders discussed opportunities to strengthen the bilateral partnership in broad areas such as the economy and defence. They also resolved that their two countries would stand "shoulder to shoulder" in the global push against terrorism. Mr Trump signed off with an invitation to Mr Modi to visit the United States, and it is likely that the Prime Minister will make his state visit by April.
Then President Barack Obama made a similar call to Mr Modi on Jan 19, a day before his term ended, where both the leaders discussed the progress they made on shared economic and security priorities, including recognition of India as a major partner of the US in defence and in addressing the global challenge of climate change.
An early Modi-Trump meeting will no doubt sustain the momentum in bilateral relations. In his tweet following his phone call with Mr Trump, the Prime Minister said he too had extended an invitation to the US President to visit India. "Had a warm conversation with President Trump last evening," Mr Modi added. "President and I agreed to work closely in the coming days to further strengthen our bilateral ties."


For his part, Mr Trump has appointed as many as six Indian- Americans to his administration. This includes his one-time fierce critic and first woman Indian- American governor of a US state (South Carolina), Ms Nikki Haley. Her appointment as the US Ambassador to the United Nations makes her the first Indian-American to serve at the Cabinet level in any US administration and the first non-white female member of the Trump Cabinet.

During his campaign and after, Mr Trump has lauded the 3.8 million-strong Indian diaspora in the US for its talents and hard work.
India is keen to move swiftly to elevate its strategic partnership with the new US administration, being one of the largest purchasers of American arms. Both countries have also set a target of expanding their US$100 billion worth of two-way trade fivefold in the near term.
At a charity reception hosted by the Indian organisation, Republican Hindu Coalition, during his campaign - to which it had donated US$1.5 million (S$2.1 million) - Mr Trump had exulted: "I am a big fan of Hindu and a big fan of India; big big fan, big big fan. Let me start by saying right up front that if I'm elected president, the Indian and Hindu community will have a true friend in the White House and I can guarantee you that."
Among those the President chose to meet within days of his win were three property developers from India, where they are building five Trump-branded luxury high-rises worth US$1.5 billion. These are possibly the largest real estate projects outside of North America that Mr Trump has lent his brand name to, with indications that three more projects will be launched this year involving equity investment.
India is keen to move swiftly to elevate its strategic partnership with the new US administration, being one of the largest purchasers of American arms. Both countries have also set a target of expanding their US$100 billion worth of two- way trade fivefold in the near term.
There are challenges, however, given Mr Trump's nationalist and protectionist rhetoric driving his "America First" vision. While he is banning visas for citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries, what is alarming India is his intent to tighten the H-1B visa that he believes is facilitating the entry of foreign workers at the cost of deserving Americans. India is the world's largest provider of information technology services, and 67 per cent of its US$130 billion IT business is accounted for by the US where some 350,000 Indian engineers work, on H-1B visas, with both Indian and American tech companies.
Washington approves nearly 200,000 H-1B visa applications yearly, including renewals and extensions, and Indian professionals whose visas are due for renewal are a worried lot. The visa entitles stay of a maximum six years in the US. Nasscom, India's National Association of Software and Services Companies, estimates that any rewriting of work visa rules to force cutbacks on outsourcing could cost Indian IT companies US$400 million a year, apart from large-scale job losses.
Also, American companies operating in India - whose tax payouts in India are on a par with their parent entities' in the US - will be motivated to return home if Mr Trump delivers on his promise to reduce corporate taxes in the US to 15 per cent from 35 per cent. Also imperilled are India's pharmaceutical exports that had boomed in the six years of Obamacare. Indian pharma majors had exported US$66 billion worth of generics since 2010 when the federal statute was enacted and which Mr Trump wishes to rescind.
With no clearly defined foreign policy as yet from the Trump administration, India is waiting for firmer indications. It is evident that despite their mutual exuberance, both Mr Modi and Mr Trump will have a weighty agenda before them when they meet in Washington.

Rachel Smalley: Indian students need to go or will be forcefully Deported

A model minorityHow Indians triumphed in America

America needs to consider what it might lose if it curbs the influx of clever, hard-working, entrepreneurial Indian immigrants

20161126_BKP004_0.jpg
From the print edition | Books and arts

Nov 26th 2016









The Other One Percent: Indians in America. By Sanjoy Chakravorty, Devesh Kapur and Nirvikar Singh. OUP USA; 355 pages; $34.95 and 22.99.
IN THE early 20th century just a few hundred people emigrated from India to America each year and there were only about 5,000 folk of Indian heritage living in the United States. That was more than enough for some xenophobes. A government commission in 1910 concluded that Indians were “the most undesirable of all Asiatics” and that the citizens of America’s west coast were “unanimous in their desire for exclusion”.
Today Indian-born Americans number 2m and they are probably the most successful minority group in the country. Compared with all other big foreign-born groups, they are younger, richer and more likely to be married and supremely well educated. On the west coast they are a mighty force in Silicon Valley; well-off Indians cluster around New York, too. “The Other One Percent” is the first major study of how this transformation happened. Filled with crunchy analysis, it exudes authority on a hugely neglected subject.
India’s diaspora is vast, with 20m-30m people spread across the world from the Caribbean to Kenya. In colonial times many moved as labourers after Britain abolished slavery in 1833, to build the east African railway, for example. In the 1970s a second wave of workers went to the Gulf during the oil boom. Perhaps the least well known flow of Indians abroad is the one to America. It picked up after 1965, when American immigration rules were relaxed, and surged after 1990. Three-quarters of the Indian-born population in America today arrived in the last 25 years.
Like all immigrant groups, Indians have found niches in America’s vast economy. Half of all motels are owned by Indians, mainly Gujaratis. Punjabis dominate the franchises for 7-Eleven stores and Subway sandwiches in Los Angeles. The surge in Indians moving to America is also intimately linked to the rise of the technology industry. In the 1980s India loosened its rules on private colleges, leading to a large expansion in the pool of engineering and science graduates. Fear of the “Y2K” bug in the late 1990s served as a catalyst for them to engage with the global economy, with armies of Indian engineers working remotely from the subcontinent, or travelling to America on workers’ visas, to make sure computers did not fail at the stroke of midnight on December 31st 1999.
Today a quarter or more of the Indian-born workforce is employed in the tech industry. In Silicon Valley neighbourhoods such as Fremont and Cupertino, people of Indian origin make up a fifth of the population. Some 10-20% of all tech start-ups have Indian founders; Indians have ascended to the heights of the biggest firms, too. Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s boss, was born in Hyderabad. Sundar Pichai, who runs Google, the main division of the firm Alphabet, hails from Tamil Nadu.
The authors of “The Other One Percent” have been careful to avoid the trap of explaining Indians’ success in America through their particular culture. Instead they argue it is “at its core a selection story”. Indians cannot walk across a border to America. Because of the filters of caste, class and a fiercely competitive education system, only those with above average financial and human capital get the chance to move to America. Most have travelled either as students or holders of H1-B working visas, which require a university degree, and then acquire residency. This visa system acts as a further filter.
Despite the light that the authors’ data-driven approach casts on this little-known story, there are some disadvantages. One is that it leaves little scope for exploring the dark side of India’s diaspora. Readers keen to peek at the underbelly should buy “The Billionaire’s Apprentice”, by Anita Raghavan, which was published in 2013. It is a brilliant account of the insider-trading ring that led to the downfall of Rajat Gupta, the former boss of McKinsey, a consulting firm. Fittingly he was pursued by a much-admired prosecutor of Indian descent.
But the authors do touch on the most fascinating question of all: how this gilded corner of the diaspora influences India itself. Diplomatic relations between the two giant democracies have long been testy. But in other realms the bond has grown closer. The stars at the pinnacle of American society are celebrated back in India alongside rather un-American figures such as spin-bowling masters and Bollywood maidens. The American-educated children of India’s governing elite probably helped push India to open up its economy in 1991. The tens of billions of dollars of income earned in America by India’s big technology firms is crucial for its balance of payments. And a new generation of entrepreneurs who have led a boom in e-commerce in India in the last five years are almost all American educated, or have worked for American technology firms.
If, under its new president, America clamps down on immigration, the mutually beneficial movement of Indians will surely slow—they were the largest group of new immigrants in 2014, exceeding even arrivals from China and Mexico. That will be a loss, both to America and to India. In this new era of populism, “The Other One Percent” is a rigorous, fact-based analysis of how cross-border flows of brainy and ambitious people make the world a better place. Politicians and policymakers in both America and in India should make sure they read it.

Girls are widely regarded as a burden to Indian families who fear the high costs of their weddings Photo: REUTERS

The report, which analyses differences between male and female child mortality rates over the last 40 years, reveals that from 2000 to 2010 there were 56 deaths of boys aged one to five for every 100 female deaths.

Indian campaigners for the rights of girls said the figures reflected widespread discrimination against girls, ranging from neglect to abuse and killing of unwanted female infants.

The figures, compiled by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, emerged as India was plunged into introspection over the case of a two year old girl fighting for her life in hospital after being abandoned by her family and trafficked between several adults before being beaten, bitten and branded by a 14 year old girl. The girl, known as Falak, is suffering from severe chest injuries and brain damage and according to her doctors is unlikely to survive the next 48 hours.

Girls are widely regarded as a burden to Indian families who fear the high costs of their weddings and resent spending money on their education only for them later to leave the home to marry.

Many women abort pregnancies when they believe they will deliver a girl, often under pressure from their husbands or in-laws who favour boys.

[h=2]Related Articles[/h]


Campaigners believe there may have been as many as eight million cases of 'female foeticide' in India over the last decade.
This discrimination has driven India's sex ratio progressively lower.
Census statistics show it fell from 976 girls per 1000 boys in 1961 to 914 in 2011.
But according to campaigners the figures hide the cruelty and neglect suffered by girls kept by their families, in particular from malnutrition and denial of medical treatment.
Ranjana Kumari of the Council for Social Research said Indian mothers breast feed girls for a far shorter period than they do their sons and feed them less well because they fear good nourishment will speed the advent of puberty and the need for a costly wedding. While boys are taken immediately to hospital, sick girls are kept waiting because their families do not have the same interest in their survival.
"They think they need to feed the boy, but there is less desire for the girl to survive, it is common in rural India. Boys are immediately taken to the doctor, but not the girl. She is the last to get the medicine," she said.
Female infanticide was also a factor in the UN figures, she added. "It has been a practice in central India for a long time, where mothers were made to feed the child with salt to kill the girl child

Indian-origin Kamala Harris has the potential to be the first woman President of US: Report

PTI | Nov 12, 2016, 11.59 AM IST
55384532.jpg



Hillary Clinton was unable to break the highest glass ceiling+


WASHINGTON: Indian-origin California Attorney General Kamala Harris has potential to become the first woman president of the United States, a media report has said, days after Hillary Clinton was unable to break the highest glass ceiling+ .

51-year-old Harris, whose mother was from Chennai and father from Jamaica, won the US Senate Seat from California+ in a landslide election this Tuesday, becoming the first black and Asian Senator from the state.

Soon thereafter, she has launched her nationwide campaign against Trump's anti-immigrant policies and mass deportation.

"Meet Kamala Harris, Who could become the first woman President. California's popular attorney general is headed to Capitol Hill. The White House might be next," The Huffington Post wrote on Friday.

The article came a day after she denounced Trumpism+ .

Noting that she has already made history with her Senate win, the daily said she has impressive track record as California Attorney General and has top Democratic leadership including the outgoing President Barack Obama+ and the Vice President Joe Biden on her side.



"These alliances could help boost Harris' profile across the country should she choose to run for president in 2020," The Huffington Post wrote.



In her concession speech, Clinton had said that the glass ceiling could be broken much earlier than thought.



"I know we have still not shattered that highest and hardest glass ceiling, but some day someone will and hopefully sooner than we might think right now," Clinton told her supporters in New York on Wednesday.



"To all the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams," Clinton said
