(Agency)


National Security Adviser Ajit Doval on Monday visited West Bengal's Burdwan district where two suspected Bangladeshi militants were killed in a blast October 2.

The explosion, in which militant outfit Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) is involved, occurred in a rented house in Khagragarh in Burdwan. The incident is being probed by the National Investigation Agency (NIA).

Doval, accompanied by National Security Guard (NSG) chief JN Choudhury, NIA director general Sharad Kumar and Intelligence Bureau (IB) chief Asif Ibrahim, reached Khagragarh and inspected the blast site.

Doval later in the day is slated to meet chief minister Mamata Banerjee.

With NIA completing its initial probe into the incident, Kumar October 24 inspected the blast site and visited Beldanga in Murshidabad district, where one of the dead militants had a rented accommodation.

Six people, including two women, have been arrested.

The NIA is also mulling announcing cash rewards for any information leading to the arrest of the absconding accused which include JMB members from Bangladesh.

Bengali Muslim Youth Attempts to Set Syed Ahmed Bukhari ablaze at Jama Masjid

(PTI)


An attempt was made Sunday evening to set the Imam of Jama Masjid on fire but his security staff thwarted the attack.
A man breached at least 10 rows of praying Muslims to throw kerosene on Syed Ahmed Bukhari, but was stopped before he could use the lighter on him, said the Imam’s family.
Tariq Bukhari, the Imam’s brother, said the motive behind the attack was not yet clear, “though the attacker knew when the security around the Imam is weakest, and intended to kill him”. “His security is always a concern. Namaz is the time when the Imam is without security and among people. The attack happened when the Imam and other namazis were in sajda position (prostration),” Tariq Bukhari said.
He said the attacker was not a regular namazi and has not been seen at Jama Masjid before. The police later identified the attacker as 32-year-old Kamaluddin, a resident of 24 Parganas district of West Bengal, and said a bottle of kerosene was found on the scene. A probe is on into his motive.
Deepak Mishra, special commissioner for law and order said, “We have arrested him and a case has been registered against him. The investigation to ascertain why he did that is on. The Imam escaped unhurt,” said.
The Imam’s son and successor Shaban Bukhari said the attacker was immediately controlled by the security personnel. “A lighter was found on him. The Imam was immediately taken to safety and the area was cordoned off.”

Indian Judges are Not Free from corruption-Goa CM Manohar Parrikar


"There was an instance where Rs 15 lakh which were supposed to be paid to one of the Judge, was accidentally sent to another Judge, exposing the entire incident. "The Judge at whose residence the money landed was having high esteem. That is why the entire issue was exposed. Why was the money sent? Doesn’t this speak of corruption? "The Court can decide but it cannot create a law. The court cannot form a new law but unfortunately these days we have seen that several times the court interprets the law in their own way and try to create their law. Courts are trying to create laws for their own gain"- CM Manohar Parrikar.
Margao-Goa: Coming down heavily on the most sensitive pillar of democracy, Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar alleged that the Indian judiciary is not free from corruption and it is important that judiciary be made accountable. “If you think that there is no corruption in the judiciary than you are under wrong impression. No one talks about judiciary because of contempt of the court,” Parrikar told the State Legislative Assembly today, during the day-long session held to ratify the National Judicial Appointments Commission Bill (NJACB), 2014 brought through 121st amendment to the Constitution of India.

The House ratified the amendment to the Constitution with both ruling and opposition MLA’s supporting the NJACB. Independent MLA Vijay Sardesai raised his objection to passing of Bill. The bill seeks to replace the collegium system in the selection process and give the executive an equal role in judicial appointments through a Commission. Being a Constitutional Bill it has to go through the motion of seeking consent of at lest 50 percent States before getting the President’s assent. The Chief Minister cited that there was an instance where Rs 15 lakh which were supposed to be paid to one of the Judge, was accidentally sent to another Judge, exposing the entire incident. “The Judge at whose residence the money landed was having high esteem. That is why the entire issue was exposed. Why was the money sent? Doesn’t this speak of corruption?” Parrikar said.
In his nearly half an hour speech, Chief Minister lashed out at the judiciary stating that some of the judges were trying to create their own laws by interpreting the existing legislation. "The Court can decide but it cannot create a law. The court cannot form a new law but unfortunately these days we have seen that several times the court interprets the law in their own way and try to create their law,” he said.  The Chief Minister pointed out that in case of judgment delivered by the Supreme Court in connection with the illegal mining in Goa and Orissa, different parameters are adopted. “In the Goa case judgment the court speaks of inter generational equity. But it is applicable only to Goa and not for the rest of the country?” he questioned, adding that inter generational equity argument was not included in case of Orissa.
He said that unlike other pillars of democracy- the Legislature, Executive and Press, who are accountable to the people, the judiciary is not. “We (legislators) are accountable to the people through election. Politicians need to be the most accountable. If a politician is not accountable than he is thrown out of power,” he added. He inferred that Judges on the other hand were not only accountable but had absolute power and “absolute power corrupts absolutely,” he said. He said that in last few years the appointment of judges was shrouded in secrecy. He also pointed out how the judiciary takes a call in case of appointments, promotions, transfers and salary grade and are not accountable for it.
Supporting the proposed six-member judicial commission, which will be set up through this bill, Parrikar tried to set aside speculation of political interference in the appointment claiming that the “judiciary will have more roles to play in the commission, than politicians.” The commission is headed by Chief Justice of India, with two members from Supreme Court, Union Law Minister as on member and two more eminent members, selected by a committee of three-Prime Minister, Leader of Opposition and Chief Justice.
