I'm hearing that the Communists didn't want to offend their Chinese masters and are reluctant to allow the counter-revolutionary NSG which would anyway be working for "elite interests of bourgeoisie".

Another view is they want to show displeasure to MHA for its demarches on Internal Security situation in W Bengal knowing fuly well its TMC hand in glove with the Maoists doing this before elections.

A khukuri attack on a policewoman re-lit the powder keg in Darjeeling, triggering police firing in Jalpaiguri in which a teenager and a young woman supporter of Gorkhaland died and igniting a wave of arson in the hills.

The bloodletting and firebombing have not only put the hills back on the boil and muddled the tripartite talks but also reopened questions on the mob control skills of Bengal police.

On the NSG hub...
http://www.thestatesman.net/index.php?o ... 7&catid=42

The Union ministry of home affairs had given the state a March deadline after Bengal government failed to find suitable land near the NSC Bose Airport for the past two years despite several reminders. In contrast, Hyderabad, where another hub would be located, has already handed over land to NSG.

Recently, the chief secretary, Mr Samar Ghosh, has written to the Union home secretary, Mr GK Pillai, urging the Centre to consider setting up the hub on 300 acres of land instead of 600 acres as proposed earlier. The state government had initially offered 647 acres of land in Hooghly near Dankuni but the proposal was turned down by NSG as the cost of land at Rs 40 lakhs per acre was found to be prohibitive. They had instead asked the state government to look for another plot.

Subsequently, Jagadishpur near Rajarhat, was proposed for setting up the hub. However, though the NSG authorities were ready to settle for 300 acres of land this time, the state government could not acquire land because of stiff resistance from the locals. {trinamool hand to uproot commies??} In fact, earlier attempts to acquire land for an IT city at Jagadishpur also had led to similar resistance from local people; even then the state government had taken the team from NSG around to select this plot for the hub. Unable to procure land in the price band of Rs 20-25 lakhs per acre within March, the state government has now asked MHA to consider reducing the quantum of land, since they were ready to settle for 300 acres at Jagadishpur.

So commie connection ityadi, totally BOGUS !!!

Also height of hope to demand 600 acres next to Kolkata airport. Which utopia/dreamland are the Center living in?

Best option is take the 647 acres for the training center and station a flight ready detachment at the Kolkata airport on rotation basis. Can do double duty at airport.

Looks more like a power play by MHA.

On Darjeeling unrest
http://www.telegraphindia.com/1110209/j ... 557183.jsp

State sends request but army reluctant

The Bengal government today sought army deployment in Darjeeling for the first time since the Gorkhaland agitation began but highly placed sources told The Telegraph the defence force was extremely reluctant to get involved.

“Our professional opinion is we are not meant to control riots. Now it is up to the political leadership to decide if all resources had been exhausted and army deployment is the only option left,” a military source said in Delhi.

The army’s reluctance will come as a blow to the Bengal government and the CPM that has been trying to wash its hands of the Darjeeling hot potato.

“The Gorkha Janmukti Morcha’s actual intention was to create divisions among different communities living there. Today’s incident was a result of that. Now it is the Centre’s responsibility {And you can sleep now!!!},” CPM state secretary Biman Bose had said during the day. “The Union home minister should take the responsibility of restraining the Morcha.”

Officials in the Union home ministry reacted with anger, saying law and order was a state subject. “Four companies of the CRPF are already deployed in the hills,” an official said.

Home ministry sources said the situation would not have come to such a pass had the state government been “more flexible” and agreed to the Morcha’s terms for setting up an interim authority for the hills. State government sources termed the comment “unfair”.

A consensus is eluding mainly because of two factors. The Morcha wants to nominate the members of the interim set-up but the state government says proportional representation based on the results of panchayat and civic elections should be followed.

The second dispute relates to the territorial jurisdiction of the interim set-up. The Morcha wants the Dooars, the Terai and Siliguri — apart from the three hill sub-divisions of Darjeeling, Kalimpong and Kurseong — to be covered by the interim authority. The state government is not willing to allow the jurisdiction to go beyond the three hill subdivisions.{Wonder how many people of Gorkha origin are there?}

Can understand the Army's reluctance because of the Gorkha forces in IA, but then GoI's reaction is also not surprising since the other side is Bengali Hindu....

NSG writes to WB govt again to give land for its hub http://news.in.msn.com/national/article ... id=4901078

Manesar (Haryana), Feb 9 (PTI) In the wake of West Bengal government''s inability to provide land for an NSG hub, the elite commando force has written to the state government to reconsider its decision saying such a facility was required given the prevailing security scenario of the country.

"We were shown 4-5 sites and we selected an area considering our suitability. We even reduced the area from 600 acres to 300 acres. But they are not able to give us the land. Now, we have written to them to reconsider the decision," Director General of National Security Guard R K Medhekar told reporters here.

Medhekar said the West Bengal government did not cite any reasons for the inability to provide the land and NSG is still continuing its efforts for the same, even as it cannot wait for long for their response.

I think the whole thing is a INC politics to blame the West Bengal govt. It makes the WB govt appear lax on security. Could even arrange the IM do token blasts.
Asking for so much land near the airport is ridiculous. Its jsut not there. If 300 acres is enough why ask for 600 acres?

Best option is have trg center at right distance and station a detachment at the airport.

Rajarhat area would be impossible for the CPI(M) to acquire land in. It was almost a so-called "red colony". After the 77 turnaround, the party decided to "expand" its "mass-base2 and started a recruitment drive. Droves joined in who had at best stayed lukewarm under Congress rule - and as is typical in such situations a far greater proportion of opportunists entered with over-enthusiasm to publicly demonstrate personal loyalty to part leaders. This was translated to mean "support for the party", but in reality was to get land-plot-allotments, jobs, bank_loans, etc.

The Rajarhat belt - and a wide area around the airport was literally a second phase of urban development expansion, [for those who could not be accommodated in the Salt Lale area - which was the first prefernce for close kin of upper echelon] where local goons/cadre-unemployed finding a profitable business/and party finding both numbers to show in rallies and party fund raising - could find mutually profitable arrangements with promoters.

If one looks deeper - the first phase of resistance by the original owners - was drowned out under the banner of "class struggle". Now those who are resisting are the benficiaries of toadying up to the party. It was a foregone conclusion that at an appropriate time they would shake off the control of the party if the party intruded into their wealth/status/livelihood. Too much money and blood has been invested into that area - it cannot be given up so easily.

Moreover over the years it has become the base of operations for a wide variety of criminal networks, and giving up the land tp NSG would have meant end of that - at least end of existing party/promoter/establishment control and perhaps renewed "contracts" with the parties behind central power.

The growing IM radicalization in both north and south 24-Parganas would also mount pressures in not having a NSG base there.

Ok birather, but is it hard to maintain constant correspondence with NSG and apprise them of the ground situation.
NSG DG Medhekar mentioned the lack of info from WB on the land acquisition front.
How many years will the NSG keep waiting for the commies to get their act together?
Moreover since many newspapers have mentioned that NSG is now scouting for sites in Jharkhand and Assam, I hope its not to late. WB may have forever lost NSG hub due to its lethargic commie government.

^^^When the proposal to "regionalise" the NSG was floated, even at that time it seemed a logistical streth from many perspectives..One of course was simple availability of enough "elite" personnel..Second is setting up of completely new infrastructure...

It would probably have been a better idea to get state governments to set up police SWAT units..Fund the setting up of these units centrally, so there is incentive for the thing to get done (like JNNURM)...Depute trainers from NSG if required to these units...This way, the local police would be able to use its organic infrastructure to set up capacities quickly....And in most urban CT/Hostage situation, "local boys" would have a familiarity advantage..

the NSG then can remain the tip of the spear - used in case the situation worsens into somehing more complicated...

there was blatant politics played even in location of NSG "hubs". BLR was not given one though the pakis are constantly fuming about the symbols of indian success there . granted the blr police is a lot more proactive than WB govt, but I think just because KT is a BJP ruled state the NSG hub was not given.

as a face saver after howls of protest, it was conveyed that a unit of army SF would be stationed in blr instead. how thats going to compensate for lack of a specialist HRT like NSG I am not sure. I suppose if the pakis setup shop in cubbon park and dare someone to come and get them then regular army SF can help. rest of the time blr police will have to manage.

And that was the easiest thing to do because the Regimental Centre of Parachute Regiment (of which few units are SF) is in Bangalore. I heard Bengaluru Police is planning for a special commando team of its own (with recruits from District Armed Reserve). Tamil Nadu police had their own commando team even in early 2000s. Read it which great excitement when a team of them came in from Coimbatore, and shot dead a Jehadi terrorist holed up in a house. H.T Sangliana (more words, no action) was the Bengaluru Police Commissioner then.

brihaspati · Post by **brihaspati** » 10 Feb 2011 19:51

Using local police and forces to tackle insurgent/extremist attacks can be a mixed bag and can be a dangerous bag. It depends on how much the local police has or does not have ties and contacts with extremists or their support bases. So far local police has been effective against Maoists of "intellectual" or "idealist" bent, or Sikh extremists. There is not much evidence of local police being effective against Islamic militants unless the state is really serious.

In WB, the border districts, like Murshidabad appears to have the local police setup in such a way that Islamists [and the closely related criminal networks spanning both sides of the border] should have a sympathetic police backup. This may mean, that if the police are kept as the frontal point with NSG bringing up the rear in severe situations, most of the time - the intel resulting from the NSG contact would be passed on to the Islamists. If helping the Islamists is a an agenda, obviously, the NSG should be kept low-profile and in the background - giving necessary inputs to the police so that they can forewarn the Islamists.

If the NSG is not present "locally" they cannot build up the independent local intel networks they may find most useful to even carry out sanitization moves in the territory. If they are coming from outside - they will be dependent on the preexisting local police networks who may be able to sufficiently fudge or delay or manage to warn off the real culprits.

600 acres near kolkata airport is of course next to impossible more so since LF govt has been stung by some very nasty land acquisition cases there.

Saffron terror probe making no headway?

Home minister P Chidambaram is not too happy with the way the cases of terrorism being linked to groups close to the RSS are progressing. With his detractors in the Congress like AICC general secretary Digvijay Singh wanting concrete action to nail the Sangh Parivar, Chidambaram is finding that the cases have not gone beyond the headlines they made. He wants his brain child, the National Investigative Agency (NIA) to take over all the cases– six in all. But the governments of BJP-ruled Madhya Pradesh, and Congress-ruled Rajasthan and Maharashtra are dragging their feet. Digvijay Singh thinks the case involving the murder of RSS worker Sunil Joshi holds the key. But the MP police have arrested witnesses in this case in connection with other cases. The fear is, notwithstanding the much publicised confession by Samjhauta Express blast accused Assemanand, the cases may collapse at the trial stage, feels Chidambaram

Teesta in dock for hacking e-mails, doctoring affidavits
http://dailypioneer.com/317019/Teesta-i ... avits.html
February 11, 2011 8:01:54 PM

More trouble is brewing for Mumbai-based social activist Teesta Setalvad. The city Crime Branch has registered an FIR against her after establishing that she hacked Rais Khan’s e-mail ID to fabricate affidavits filed on behalf of Gujarat riot victims.

Setalvad’s associate since the 2002 post-Godhra riots, Khan had complained to the Police Commissioner in September last year that she illegally used his ID after the two parted company following differences over the issue.

Khan was city-based coordinator of Citizens for Justice & Peace (CJP), which had nurtured the 2002 riot victims and survivors. He had fallen out with Setalvad nearly three years ago but decided to spill the beans only after there were allegations against him.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Himanshu Shukla told The Pioneer on Thursday that an FIR has been registered against Setalvad in the hacking case, after investigation confirmed the truth of the allegations.

Khan had complained about the hacking before the Nanavati-Mehta Commission too. In December last year, a designated Sessions Court ordered that criminal complaints be registered against Setalvad and others for the fabricated affidavits.

Her bosses who showered foreign and national awards on her should see her real character, another petty commie living on fabricated
cause and victims

^ Expected result after PM ordered HP sarkar to hush up the matter

‘Go slow’ on Karmapa http://www.telegraphindia.com/1110207/j ... 546454.jsp

New Delhi, Feb. 6: The Himachal Pradesh government has been told to “go slow” on the Karmapa case by the highest offices in Delhi, sources said today in an indication that the matter should be treated with utmost care by the state government.

The communication suggested that the Prime Minister’s Office had taken a final view on the matter. The sources said that the central agencies working on several cases of benami property and land deals managed by the Karmapa’s office may now “go slow”.

Reports from Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh and Himachal indicated that support for Ugyen Trinley Dorje, whom Delhi does not consider the Karmapa, had spilled on to the streets. “It seems the government has backed off because of pressure,” said a source.

Although the government has not officially ruled out arresting the Karmapa after Chinese yuans amounting to several crores were found in his Dharamshala monastery, fissures in the Congress surfaced on how to deal with the Karmapa and his aides.

In November 2010, Congress leader Virbhadra Singh and three other MPs — among them former Arunachal Pradesh chief minister Mukut Mithi — wrote to Union home minister P. Chidambaram seeking removal of travel restrictions on Tai Situ Rinpoche, the third-highest in the Kagyu order and the principal supporter of Dorje.

“A formal order must be passed by the ministry of home affairs cancelling all earlier circulars by which restrictions were imposed on the free movement of the Rinpoche, both within and outside the country,” the letter said.

Besides Virbhadra and Mithi, Arunachal Congress MP Takam Sanjay and Sikkim Democratic Front MP .T. Lepcha also supported the move.

Delhi is highly suspicious of Tai Situ, who was in China from 1982-90 and is believed to be extremely close to the leadership there. Intelligence sources revealed that when he returned to India in 1991, he did not obtain the No Objection on Return to India permit from the government mandatory for refugees.

Tai Situ is understood to have conducted the ceremony in Tibet that put Dorje on the throne as the Karmapa.

Maudany's bailplea rejected

Justice V. Jagannathan rejected the bail petition, saying that granting bail to Maudany “would put the security of the nation in jeopardy.”

He said the prosecution had placed materials before the court showing that Maudany was in touch with some of the accused before and after the blasts. The State, he said, had also provided material to the court about the shelter given by Maudany at his home in Kerala to some of those who were involved in the blasts.

The court, however, observed that, “there is seldom direct evidence in such cases.” It said, conspiracy is generally hatched in complete secrecy as otherwise the whole purpose will be frustrated.” It said inference could be drawn from whatever evidence had been placed and collected and it was “sufficient to point out the conspiracy.”

Clarification from HP CM on seizure of unaccounted money from karmapa

Can't give clean chit to Karmapa as central probe on: HP CM http://www.deccanherald.com/content/137 ... rmapa.html

Dharamsala (HP), Feb 12, (PTI):

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister P K Dhumal on Saturday said his government cannot give any ''clean chit'' to Karmapa Ugyen Trinely Dorji, under ED scanner in a foreign currency haul case, as central agencies are probing the matter.

His comments came a day after Chief Secretary Rajwant Sandhu told the media that the Karmapa has no links with the money seized from his transit home in Sidhbari near here.

"We can't give him (the Karmapa) a clean chit as probe by central agencies is still on...Karmapa has neither been given a clean chit nor held guilty," Dhumal told reporters here.

"The Centre is probing into the huge foreign currency recovered during raids from the Gyuto Monastery, the transit home of the Karmapa. The state government had never made any accusation against him and therefore the question of giving clean chit does not arise," he said.

He said the Chief Secretary was repeatedly asked by a reporter during a press conference in Shimla yesterday about the status of the case. She then pointed out that the state government had never said the Karmapa is an accused.

"The illegal money that was found is being investigated and this matter is under the Union government...The central and state agencies are investigating the matter and I would not like to comment till the probe is complete," Dhumal said.

Yesterday, Sandhu had said the Karmapa has no links with the money seized from his transit home as the affairs of the trust are managed by trustees. "He is a revered religious leader of the Buddhists and the government has no intentions to interfere in their religious affairs," she had said.

Foreign currency worth Rs 7.5 crore belonging to 25 countries including China was recovered by police from the premises of a Karmapa-backed trust and some of the trustees in the raids that followed recovery of Rs one crore from two persons on Mehatpur border on January 25 last, allegedly drawn from a bank at Majnoo-ka-Tila in Delhi for some land deal.

The police arrested seven persons including one Sanjay Dutt and Ashutosh, who were carrying the cash in the car, Shakti Lama, a key aide of the Karmapa, Dharamsala-based hotelier K P Bharadwaj, Manager of Ambala branch of Corporation Bank D K Dhar and a couple -- Karma Thapa and his wife Rinzin.
