Blackmoney,Earthquake,Disputed_Islands,CHOGM,Election_dummy&Salwa_Judum

Dear all,
Welcome.
Black money: Switzerland had agreed to share information on tax matters along with Indian govt. Under administrative cooperation, it would provide information on urgent basis. Due to international pressure, OECD & Switzerland had signed multiparty agreement on tax matters. The Paris based OECD is chief organisation on Global tax standards and advises on international policy.


Earthquake: An earthquake occured at mid-Phillipines causing deaths of around 127 people. As per US Geographical Survey dept, it measured 7.2 on richter scale. It's epicentre had been 35 kms deep at Bohol Islands. It is a popular tourist spot. The effect had been more at

Cebu Island.
Along with it, twenty more tremors were felt within 56 kms depth. Indonesia's Disaster management dept. had not issued any tsunami alert at Papun new guinea islands wave of many feets height were seen at Pacific Ocean region.


Disputed Islands: A Chinese official had visited Japan for secret meeting along with his Japanese counterpart. However, Japan's foreign Ministry had denied it. Talks are being held at various levels. During Sept.2012, Japan had nationalised them which had resulted in tension with China. These are located at South China sea & are known as Senkaku and Dioyou in Japanese & Chinese languages.


CHOGM: PM had assured that Commonwealth Heads of Working govt. meeting(CHOWGM) scheduled during next month at Srilanka, India's Partnership would be after considering all aspects including those of DMK & AIADMK. PM had sent a letter to DMK chief with copy being issued to media that his participation would be after consideration of all issues being discussed. On Monday, DMK leader had met him & apprised him of DMK's stand.

Also, England's Prince Charles would be visiting India from November 6 to 14 prior to attending it.

Election dummy: If any dummy candidate is made to stand in elections, it might cost heavily on candidate as the expenses of such independent dummy candidate would have to be borne by candidate. It would be added into his expenditure towards elections. Also, case would be registered under appropriate IPC acts.

Election Commission had issued directions under which dummy candidate's vehicle, if found along with  election material, EC would make the report filed against him. Also, notice would be sent to
candidates for demanding such expenses to be borne by him, who would be using their vehicles for other candidate's purpose. Actually,elections are guided by Election commission. A candidate can use as many vehicles as he can but he would have to take permit for it. It has maximum limit of fourteen lakh rupees. This facility is provided after the nomination is filed by the candidate. Dummy candidates provide for such expenses like vehicles, which are often neglected in the absence of proper evidences. But this time, it would be checked properly.
EVM & ballot paper: It is decided now that voters could reject the candidates. The five States assembly elections would now be having NOTA button in electronic voting machines (EVMs), which would be at the bottom. It would be written in local language as "Not acceptable".

EC had issued necessary directions in this regard. It is to note that Supreme Court had issued guidelines to provide the said button. Based upon it, EC had asked to provide such button during the recent  elections. Nota button with more than 50% votes would also be not affecting the elections. 
Salwa Judum: Congress had changed it's strategy in Chattisgarh State for upcoming elections issuing tickets to both pro & anti-Salwa Judum movement. It is to note that anti-naxalite campaign, Salwa Judum, was started during 2004-05 at Bijapur's Kutru region. The campaign had been armed & drew sharp criticism from Supreme Court. But it had caused loss to Naxalites there. Large number of cadres had surrendered and joined the movement & became SPOs. The campaign was run under the leadership of Karma who got killed during the recent Naxalite attack
on Congress party's parivartan rally convoy. The Supreme Court had put a ban as various human rights organisation had been opposing it. This included Rural minister & Fin.minister too stating it to be violent.
With regards,


M.K.Pachraiya
