Ayodhya Verdict postponed to next week

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday stayed for a week the Ayodhya title suit verdict that was due to be pronounced by Allahabad High Court on Friday and will hear the plea for deferment of the judgment next Tuesday.

The Court issued notices to the contesting parties on the petition filed by retired bureaucrat Ramesh Chand Tripathi challenging the order of the Lucknow Bench of Allahabad High Court order refusing to defer the verdict in the 60-year-old Ram Janambhoomi-Babri Masjid title suit dispute.
Ayodhya Verdict postponed to next week


It posted the matter for further hearing on September 28.

A Bench comprising Justices R V Raveendran and H L Gokhale stayed the verdict for a week following conflicting views over the issue of entertaining the petition challenging the High Court order.

Justice Raveendran was of the view that the special leave petition filed by Tripathi should be dismissed while Justice Gokhale, on the other hand, was of the opinion that a notice should be issued for exploring the option of settlement.

However, Justice Raveendran, who was heading the Bench, preferred to go by the opinion of Justice Gokhale.

In the order, Justice Raveendran said, "When one of the Judges has a difference of opinion then the tradition is to issue notice."

Notice was also sent to the Attorney General by the Supreme Court.

A bench of the apex court comprising Justices Altmas Kabir and A K Patnaik had on Wednesday declined to hear urgently the plea to postpone the Ayodhya title suit verdict.

While refusing to hear the petition filed by retired bureaucrat Tripathi, the bench had said that it did not have the 'determination' to take up the issue and added that it will be listed before another Bench.

Mukul Rohatgi, senior counsel appearing for Tripathi, said the Supreme Court may give a healing touch by attempting a last-ditch effort at mediation.

He said it was possible that in the face of Supreme Court notices the rival parties may sit across to find an amicable solution.

Rohatgi said that next Tuesday his side would try to tell the court that the matter of judgement should be deferred so that religious, political and national leaders could try and work out a solution.

He also said it was not a matter of just 10 or 20 parties in the case but related to lakhs and crores of people and the mediation could result in some way out.

Tripathi had on Wednesday moved the apex court five days after the High Court's Lucknow bench rejected his petition for deferring the verdict and to allow mediation to find a solution to the contentious dispute.

The Allahabad High Court had also imposed "exemplary costs" of Rs 50,000, terming Tripathi's effort for an out-of-court settlement of the dispute as a "mischievous attempt."

The petition filed by Tripathi sought some time to allow mediation among the parties and also challenged the costs.

Tripathi, in his plea before the apex court, claimed that the verdict might disturb communal harmony and lead to violence in the country.

In the petition filed through advocate Sunil Jain, he cited several reasons for deferment of the verdict, which he said would be in "public interest" in view of the apprehension of communal flare up, upcoming Commonwealth Games, elections in Bihar and violence in Kashmir Valley and Naxal-hit states.

The petition had feared that there would be inadequate security personnel in Uttar Pradesh to provide security.

Tripathi had also referred to an earlier order of the Court on July 27 last that parties concerned are at liberty to approach the Officer on Special Duty for formation of the bench if there was any possibility of disposal of the dispute or arrival at an understanding through consensus.

One of the three judges in the Lucknow bench, however, disagreed with the majority order of September 17 rejecting the plea for deferring the Ayodhya verdict to allow mediation and gave a dissenting opinion that an amicable settlement could have been explored in the protracted legal wrangle.

Justice Dharam Veer Sharma, while not concurring with the view of the other two judges - Justice S U Khan and Justice Sudhir Agarwal - also said in his dissenting judgment that he wasn't consulted when the three-judge bench gave the order while dismissing the plea for mediation.

Tendulkar welcomes Oz split formula trial

The Master batsman said, "I am glad it's being tried out in Australia. I feel once the players have tried out this format, they will be in a better position to judge if the format works or not."

Tendulkar was one of the first cricketers to suggest that one-dayers should be split into two innings in September 2009.

The 37-year-old had said that the idea first struck him in 2002 when the final of the Champions Trophy between India and Sri Lanka could not be completed despite 110 overs of cricket being played over two days.

"First, they played 50 overs and we played two overs before the rain interruption. The next day, Sri Lanka again played 50 overs and we played eight. In the end we were declared joint winners. 110 overs and still no result! That is when I thought we should have 25 overs first for one side and then the other. And then once again 25 overs for one side and then the other," he had explained.

Tendulkar feels that the new formula would add to the excitement of the game in the age of Twenty20. It would also negate the luck factor of the toss and provide a level-playing field.

"Today, we can tell the result of close to 75% of matches after the toss. We know how conditions will affect the two teams. But it (splitting the game into two innings) is not too dependent on the toss because, (if) it's a day-night match, then both the teams will have to bat under lights. And if it rains, you can plan for that too," Tendulkar had opined.

The administrators Down Under seem to have taken note of Sachin's observation.

Single entrance test for MBBS from 2011

NEW DELHI: Come 2011 and there will be only one common entrance test each for over 30,000 MBBS seats and over 11,000 MD seats in all government and medical colleges in the country.

This important decision, taken by the Medical Council of India and accepted by the Union ministry of health, was conveyed to the Supreme Court on Friday bringing huge relief to lakhs of aspiring doctors.

Earlier, students wanting to take up courses in medicine had to appear in at least five to six entrance tests for various colleges and worry about attendant problems like clash of exam dates as well as travel to distant places for counselling for allotment of seats.

But from 2011, there will be just one entrance test each for MBBS and MD courses offered by all 271 medical colleges, 138 government-run and 133 under private management. These colleges together offer over 31,000 seats for MBBS courses and another 11,000 for PG.

The confusion caused by multiple entrance tests and counselling saw hundreds of students rush to the Supreme Court every year complaining about the system where they were left high and dry even for making a single mistake in their choices.

One such petition filed by Simran Jain through advocate A D N Rao had sought a direction from the apex court to MCI and the Centre for a single window system for admissions.

During hearing of the petition before a Bench comprising Justices R V Raveendran and H L Gokhale, the decision for one common entrance test was conveyed by MCI counsel and senior advocate Amarendra Saran. Additional solicitor generalP P Malhotra said the government had accepted MCI's suggestion to amend the regulation concerning admissions to medical colleges.

The state of affairs of private medical colleges and their admission process had come for some serious scrutiny in the apex court, which said last year, "Every year, this is happening. We know how these tricks are played on students every year."

Interestingly, the malaise seems to have spread to government medical colleges too as the apex court had last year asked Director General of Health Services Dr Mangla Kohli to look into allegations of malpractices in admissions into some such colleges in various states.

நுரையீரலில் செடி : அமெரிக்காவில் வினோதம்

வாஷிங்டன் : அமெரிக்காவின் மாசாசெட்ஸ் மாகாணத்தைச் சேர்ந்தவர் ரோன் ஸ்வீடன். இவருக்கு சமீப காலமாக கடும் இருமல் இருந்து வந்தது. அடிக்கடி கடும் மூச்சுத் திணறலும் ஏற்பட்டுள்ளது. ஒரு நாள் நிலைமை மோசமாகவே உடனடியாக மருத்துவமனையில் தீவிர சிகிச்சைப் பிரிவில் அனுமதிக்கப்பட்டார். எக்ஸ் ரே எடுக்கப்பட்டது. நுரையீரலில் ஏதோ கட்டியிருப்பது போல் தெரிந்தது. அது எந்த மாதிரியான கட்டி என்ற அடுத்துக்கட்ட சோதனைக்கு உட்படுத்தப்பட்டார் ரோன். கேன்சராக இருக்கக்கூடும் என டாக்டர்கள் சந்தேகப்பட்டனர். ஆனால் கேன்சர் டெஸ்ட் முடிவு நெகடிவாக வந்தது. அடுக்கடுக்கான சோதனைகளுக்குப் பிறகு அவர் நுரையீரலில் இருந்தது கட்டி அல்ல ஒரு வேர்கடலை செடி என்பது தெரியவந்தது. ரோன் தன்னையே அறியாமல் நுகர்ந்த ஒரு நிலக்கடலை விதையாகி முளைத்திருந்தது. 1.25 செ.மீ., உயரத்துக்கு அந்த விதை முளைத்து செடியாக மாறியிருந்தது. அறுவை சிகிச்சை மூலம் செடி அகற்றப்பட்டு இப்போது ரோன் உடல் நலம் தேறி வருகிறார்

Flintoff has had two knee operations in the last 12 months and will be out of action for the entire season.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who led Super Kings to their maiden IPL triumph this year, will continue to captain the side.

The foreign players who found a place in the squad are retired Sri Lankan spin-wizard Muttiah Muralitharan and Thilan Thushara, Australia's Michael Hussey, Doug Bollinger and retired Matthew Hayden, and Albie Morkel of South Africa.

How to face Group Disscussion

A group discussion consists of:
Communication Skills

 
Knowledge and ideas regarding a given subject

 
Capability to co-ordinate and lead

 
Exchange of thoughts

 
Addressing the group as a whole

 
Thorough preparations

 
Communication Skills
The first aspect is one's power of expression. In a group discussion, a candidate has to talk effectively so that he is able to convince others. For convincing, one has to speak forcefully and at the same time create an impact by his knowledge of the subject. A candidate who is successful in holding the attention of the audience creates a positive impact.
It is necessary that you should be precise and clear. As a rule evaluators do not look for the wordage produced. Your knowledge on a given subject, your precision and clarity of thought are the things that are evaluated. Irrelevant talks lead you nowhere. You should speak as much as necessary, neither more nor less. Group discussions are not debating stages.
Ability to listen is also what evaluators judge. They look for your ability to react on what other participants say. Hence, it is necessary that you listen carefully to others and then react or proceed to add some more points. Your behavior in the group is also put to test to judge whether you are a loner or can work in a group.
You should be able to convey your thoughts satisfactorily and convincingly before a group of people. Confidence and level headedness in doing so is necessary. These add value to your presentation. In case you are not good at it, you might gain by joining an institute that offers specialized courses in public speaking. For instance, British Council Division's English Language Teaching Centre offers a wide range of courses like conversation skills, business communication skills, business writing, negotiation skills and presentation skills. Mostly people attend these courses to improve their communication skills. Students here are involved in activities which use communication skills and teachers provide inputs, monitor and facilitate the classes. The course at the Centre makes you confident enough to speak before people without any nervousness.
Knowledge and Ideas Regarding a Given Subject
Knowledge of the subject under discussion and clarity of ideas are important. Knowledge comes from consistent reading on various topics ranging from science and technology to politics. In-depth knowledge makes one confident and enthusiastic and this in turn, makes one sound convincing and confident.
Leadership and Coordinating Capabilities

 The basic aim of a group discussion is to judge a candidate's leadership qualities. The examiner withdraws and becomes a silent spectator once the discussion starts. A candidate should display tactfulness, skill, understanding and knowledge on varied topics, enterprise, forcefulness and other leadership qualities to motivate and influence other candidates who may be almost equally competent.
Exchange of Thoughts

 A group discussion is an exchange of thoughts and ideas among members of a group. These discussions are held for selecting personnel in organisations where there is a high level of competition. The number of participants in a group can vary between 8 and 15. Mostly a topic or a situation is given to group members who have to discuss it within 10 to 20 minutes. 
The purpose is to get an idea about candidates in a short time and make assessments about their skills, which normally cannot be evaluated in an interview. These skills may be team membership, leadership skills, listening and articulation skills.

 A note is made of your contributions to the discussion, comprehension of the main idea, the rapport you strike, patience, assertion, accommodation, amenability, etc. Body language and eye contact too are important points which are to be considered. .
Addressing the Group as a Whole

 In a group discussion it is not necessary to address anyone by name. Even otherwise you may not know everyone's names. It better to address the group as a whole.

 Address the person farthest from you. If he can hear you everyone else too can. Needless to add, as for the interview, attend the group discussion in formal dress. The language used should also be formal, not the language used in normal conversations. For instance, words and phrases like "yar", "chalta hai", "CP", "I dunno", etc. are out. This is not to say you should use a high sounding, pedantic language. Avoiding both, just use formal, plain and simple language. Hinglish, (mixture of Hindi and English) should be discarded.

 Confidence and coolness while presenting your viewpoint are of help. See that you do not keep repeating a point. Do not use more words than necessary. Do not be superfluous. Try to be specific. Do not exaggerate.

 
Thorough Preparation

 Start making preparations for interview and group discussions right away, without waiting till the eleventh hour, this is, if and when called for them. Then the time left may not be adequate. It is important to concentrate on subject knowledge and general awareness. Hence, the prime need for thorough preparation. Remember, the competition is very tough. Only 460 candidates make it to the final list from 2.75 lakh civil service aspirants each year.

 It may so happen that you are called for interviews and group discussions from three or four organizations but are not selected by any. The reason obviously lies in your not being well-prepared.

  In a group discussion you may be given a topic and asked to express your views on it. Or in a case study GD, students have to read a case study and suggest ways of tackling the problem. For this you should have a good general knowledge, need to be abreast with current affairs, should regularly read newspapers and magazines. Your group behaviour and communication skills are on test, i.e. how you convince the others and how clearly you are able to express your points of view. You should be articulate, generate ideas, not sound boring, should allow others to speak, and adopt a stand on a given subject. During the course of the GD this stand can even be changed, giving the impression that you are open to accommodate others' viewpoints.

 
Additional marks may be given for starting or concluding the discussion. 
Points to Remember
  • Knowledge is strength. A candidate with good reading habits has more chances of success. In other words, sound knowledge on different topics like politics, finance, economy, science and technology is helpful.
  • Power to convince effectively is another quality that makes you stand out among others.
  • Clarity in speech and expression is yet another essential quality.
  • If you are not sure about the topic of discussion, it is better not to initiate. Lack of knowledge or wrong approach creates a bad impression. Instead, you might adopt the wait and watch attitude. Listen attentively to others, may be you would be able to come up with a point or two later.
  • A GD is a formal occasion where slang is to avoided.
  • A GD is not a debating stage. Participants should confine themselves to expressing their viewpoints. In the second part of the discussion candidates can exercise their choice in agreeing, disagreeing or remaining neutral.
  • Language use should be simple, direct and straight forward.
  • Don't interrupt a speaker when the session is on. Try to score by increasing your size, not by cutting others short.
  • Maintain rapport with fellow participants. Eye contact plays a major role. Non-verbal gestures, such as listening intently or nodding while appreciating someone's viewpoint speak of you positively.
  • Communicate with each and every candidate present. While speaking don't keep looking at a single member. Address the entire group in such a way that everyone feels you are speaking to him or her.

Saina to get Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna

New Delhi, July 30 (IANS) Ace Indian shuttler and world no.2 Saina Nehwal will get the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna, the country's highest sports award.
The award's committee headed by India's legendary athlete P.T. Usha met here Friday to finalise the winners of this year's national sports awards. A sports ministry official said the Arjuna Awards will be declared in next couple of days.
Saina has been in great form and recently won three back-to-back tournaments, including two Super Series titles. The 20-year-old from Hyderabad won the Indian Open Grand Prix, Singapore Open and Indonesian Open.
Earlier this month, she jumped one spot to World No.2, and it came as a major boost for the star shuttler ahead of the World Championships in Paris from Aug 23. Saina is now behind top-ranked Chinese Yihan Wang.
'I am very happy and it is a surprise for me. It has come just before the World Championships. In fact, the last couple of months were great for me. I have done consistently well this year,' said Saina.
'Everything has happened quickly in my career. But it has been tough for me as well. Things will be different now as expectations will be high from me,' she said.
Saina has been made the captain of the Indian team for the World Championships.
Saina, who won the Arjuna Award last year, was the first Indian girl to reach the singles quarterfinals at the Olympics in Beijing and the first Indian to win the World Junior Badminton Championships.
Last year, the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna was awarded to Olympic bronze medallists boxer Vijender Singh, wrestler Sushil Kumar and four-time world champion woman pugilist M.C. Mary Kom.

Reliance, Universal eye theme park in India - report

The Enlarge Photo The "Battlestar Galactica" dueling roller coaster ride is pictured during a media preview of the...
India's Reliance ADA Group is in talks with Universal Studios to build a $1.5 billion, 400 acre theme park and resort in India, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday citing a person familiar with the matter.
Reliance's Big Entertainment unit and Universal, a unit of General Electric Co's NBC Universal could reach a deal this year, although one person familiar with the matter warned the talks were at an early stage and could break down, the newspaper reported.
Reliance ADA is controlled by billionaire Anil Ambani.
The newspaper cited a source as saying that Reliance ADA would have full ownership of the venture but would pay Universal royalties and fees for using content linked to popular movies like "Jaws," "E.T.," "Spider-Man" and the "Harry Potter" franchise.
The park would look much like Universal's parks in Los Angeles, Orlando, Fla., and Japan, with a variety of roller coasters and rides, shops with movie-related merchandise and nearby hotels.
Universal declined comment and officials for Reliance were not immediately available.
The main cities being considered for the park are New Delhi and Mumbai, according to the report.

IT firms to check attrition, think beyond salary hikes

Bangalore: IT firms are fully determined to decrease the attrition level in their respective organizations. India's top IT firma are offering mid term hikes, promotions and restricted stocks to keep the employees loyal towards the company.

Now when the global economy is improving, most of the Indian IT firms are offshoring more work to save costs and at the same time, the IT firms are looking for employees experienced with three to seven years, who can deliver quality codes to their customers, reports Poornima Mohandas and Raghu Krishnan of the Mint.



"85 to 90 percent of IT-ITeS companies now are looking at off cycle compensation related interventions such as retention bonuses, off cycle salary increases and equity based incentives to control this situation," said Sandeep Chaudhary, performance rewards consulting practice, South and West Asia, Hewitt Associates.

The IT biggies are bringing in a new trend in the industry. Infosys has raised its hiring plans to 36,000 from 30,000 for the year 2011 and at the same time, TCS plans to hire 40,000 people.

20 IIITs to come up on public-private partnership mode

New Delhi: The HRD Ministry has prepared a public-private-partnership model for setting up 20 IIITs under which the expenditure could be shared in the ratio of 85 to 15 between the government and industry.

"The government of India has a scheme of setting up new IIITs under PPP mode," Minister of State in the HRD ministry D. Purandeswari said in a written reply to the Lok Sabha recently.



According to a note prepared by the Ministry for these projects, each Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) would be set up at an investment of Rs 200 crore and the government would bear 85 per cent of the expenditure.

Of the 85 per cent spending, the Centre would provide for 50 per cent and the state government would bear 35 per cent of the expenditure. It means the Centre will provide Rs 100 crore while the state government will give Rs 70 crore and the industry will provide Rs 30 crore for setting up of each IIT.

"The scheme is yet to be approved by the cabinet. The location and other details of the new IIITs will depend upon the schemes finally approved," the Minister added.

At present, India has four IIITs at Allahabad (Uttar Pradesh), Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh), Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh) and Kancheepuram (Tamil Nadu).

Planck satellite reveals Image of entire universe

European Space Agency has released what it says is the first ever image of the entire universe which will give scientists new insight into how the stars and galaxies form.
The all-sky image produced by space telescope Planck can also tell how the Universe itself came to life after the Big Bang some 13.7 billion years ago.

The satellite was launched last year by the ESA under a 600-million euros project to record the origins of the universe.

While the satellite was sent nearly a million miles into space, the Planck observatory's job was to look at the age, contents and evolution of the cosmos by studying the heat left behind by the Big Bang.

ESA Director of Science and Robotic Exploration, David Southwood, said "This is the moment that Planck was conceived for."

"We're not giving the answer. We are opening the door to an Eldorado where scientists can seek the nuggets that will lead to deeper understanding of how our Universe came to be and how it works now," he was quoted as saying by the newspaper.

"The image itself and its remarkable quality is a tribute to the engineers who built and have operated Planck. Now the scientific harvest must begin," he said.

From the closest portions of the Milky Way to the furthest reaches of space and time, the new all-sky image, for which Planck took six months of time, is an extraordinary treasure chest of new data for astronomers, the scientists said.

The main disc of our Galaxy runs across the centre of the image. Immediately striking are the streamers of cold dust reaching above and below the Milky Way.

This galactic web is where new stars are being formed, and Planck has found many locations where individual stars are edging toward birth or just beginning their cycle of development, the report said.

Less spectacular but perhaps more intriguing is the mottled backdrop at the top and bottom. This is the "cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR)", the scientists said.

The CMBR covers the entire sky but most of it is hidden in this image by the Milky Way's emission, which must be digitally removed from the final data in order to see the microwave background in its entirety.

When this work is completed, Planck will show us the most precise picture of the microwave background ever obtained, the ESA said.

The different colours represent minute differences in the temperature and density of matter across the sky.

Somehow these small irregularities evolved into denser regions that became the galaxies of today.

Planck will continue to map the Universe and will produce four all-sky scans till its mission ends in 2012.

Passenger plane carrying over 150 people crashes in Pak

A Pakistani passenger plane carrying over 150 people crashed into the heavily forested Margalla Hills surrounding Islamabad due to bad weather on Wednesday.  
 
The Airbus aircraft of the private airline Air Blue hit the Margalla Hills near the Daman-e-Koh viewpoint Wednesday morning, officials of the police and a state-run rescue service said.

The aircraft, flying from Turkey to Islamabad via Karachi, was preparing to land when it crashed, said Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority Spokesman Pervez George.

"There were 146 passengers and six crew on board," he said. "When it was preparing to land, it crashed in the Margalla Hills." Islamabad has been hit by heavy rains for the past few days and the city was covered by fog and low clouds.

A spokesperson for the state-run Rescue 1122 service said there were reports that at least 150 people were on the aircraft. Rescue works were being affected by bad weather and smoke and fire at the crash site, which is not accessible by tracks or roads.

The crash occurred in an area that is not accessible by roads or trials. Rescue workers said they were facing problems in approaching the crash site. The heavy rains too were hampering rescue efforts.

So far five bodies were recovered from the site. "Several bodies are lying in the area. Four or five bodies have been taken," Imtiaz Inayat, a senior Islamabad municipal official, told Geo television.

"There is fire across a large area. Rescue teams have been sent. Helicopters have been deployed," he added. Civil aviation officials said the aircraft had disappeared from radar screens shortly before the crash was reported. It had taken off from Karachi at 7.50 am.

The crash occurred in an area that is not easily accessible as the Margalla Hills are covered by thick forests.
