resume Siachen talks today between india and pakistan

After a gap of three years, defence secretary-level talks between India and Pakistan on the long-pending Siachen issue will kick off in New Delhi on Monday. Defence secretary Pradeep Kumar will lead the Indian delegation during the two-day talks with his Pakistani counterpart Lt General (Retd)

Syed Ather Ali. India and Pakistan have decided to resume their dialogue, which was put on hold after the November 2008 Mumbai terror attack, following meetings between their prime ministers in Thimpu in April 2010.

Pakistan’s defence secretary Lt General (retd) Syed Ather Ali arrived in New Delhi on Saturday for the 12th round of talks, which will conclude on Tuesday.

While the Pakistani delegation has two civilian officials and four military officers, the Indian side includes special secretary RK Mathur, director general of military operations (DGMO) Lt General AM Verma and surveyor general S Subha Rao, defence officials said.

Siachen, the world’s highest militarised zone, has been a long pending issue between India and Pakistan over differences on the location of the 110-km long Actual Ground Position Line (AGPL) which passes through the Soltoro Ridge and Siachen glacier.

“The AGPL is not clearly marked beyond the grid reference point of NJ-9842. The two countries have decided to de-militarise the Siachen glacier, but the matter is stuck as there are apprehensions on both sides,” officials said.

India wants Pakistan to authenticate the AGPL, both on the maps and the ground, as it occupies most of the dominating posts on the Saltoro Ridge, they said.

Pakistan, in turn, has been insisting on maintaining the pre-1972 troop positions as agreed in the Simla Agreement. Retaliating to Pakistan Army’s advances in the glacier in 1984, India launched Operation Meghdoot and deployed its troops in most of the dominating features in the area.

The defence secretary-level talks between the two countries on Siachen dates back to 1985. The decision to hold joint talks was taken by the then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi and Pakistan President General Zia-ul-Haq.

Samsung ready to launch Galaxy S II In India on 3rd june

After the great success of Samsung Glaxy s1 in india ,the officials of Samsung are now going to launch Galaxy S II in india .the indian market of mobile is growing at unlimted speed and all big cell phone companies want to participate in this growing consumer market .

The Samsung Galaxy S II has managed to blow us all away by its sheer brilliance and hardware capabilities. We got our first glimpse of the device during the Mobile World Congress in February.
The handset will be launched via Vodafone on June 3. Vodafone will sell the handset for Rs.32,890 which isn't much considering that the entry-level iPhone 4 to be launched in India will cost about Rs.2000 more.
Interested buyers may also pre-order their phones via Samsung's website from May 26 onwards for Rs.1000. It seems like Vodafone customers will have the privilege of getting the device first, followed by other Samsung retail outlets in India where the device will be available from June 9. Vodafone users will also be offered 6 GB of free data usage (1 GB per month for a span of 6 months).

This handset is the successor to the equally popular Samsung Galaxy S, which sold around 10 million units worldwide. Something similar can be expected from the Galaxy S II, and with the device that the Galaxy S II is, we don't think that should be too difficult. The Indian markets will be getting the 16 GB variant of the Galaxy S II.

Specifications:
The Galaxy S II will feature a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display, an 8 Megapixel camera capable of recording 1080p Full HD video, a 1.2 GHz dual core processor and Android 2.3 Gingerbread with the latest iteration of Samsung's TouchWiz i.e. the TouchWiz 4.0.

US remarked emerging India's roles in Asia Pacific

WASHINGTON: The US welcomes India's greater involvement in East Asia and is committed to working with New Delhi as it increases ties with US allies in Southeast Asia and Japan, a senior US official has said.

"Ultimately, we think that India's role in the Asian-Pacific region stands to be one of the most important new developments over the course of the next decade," Assistant Secretary of State for East Asia Kurt Campbell told reporters Wednesday.

Offering to help India and China improve their relations, he said: "We also, frankly, support an improvement in dialogue between India and China, and we would seek to take steps to facilitate that as we move forward."
Back in November 2009, India had expressed deep concern over a joint statement issued after President Barack Obama's China visit acknowledging Beijing's role in South Asia. Among other things, it "welcomed all efforts conducive to peace, stability and development in South Asia".

It also supported "the improvement and growth of relations between India and Pakistan" and expressed readiness "to strengthen communication, dialogue and cooperation on issues related to South Asia and work together to promote peace, stability and development in that region".

However, after Chinese President Hu Jintao's visit to Washington last month, the joint statement made no reference to South Asia apparently in response to New Delhi's sensitivities.

Downplaying the absence of a reference to Beijing's role in South Asia in the latest US-China joint statement, Washington said it did not necessarily reflect a change in policy.

Though the joint statement issued here after Obama's talks with Hu made no direct reference to South Asia it clearly stated, "The presidents further reaffirmed their commitment to the November 2009 US - China Joint Statement."

Hazare-led anti-corruption movement ,Change is finally here,light of new rays for indian anticorruption movement

It is natural, particularly for the youth, to be part of a revolution. Just witness the outpouring of support for what was considered to be India’s Tahrir Square — the Hazare-led anti-corruption movement. Very likely, it was our anxiety to be part of a movement, any movement, so that we could show solidarity with the jasmine revolution in the Middle East.

Most likely, the real revolution in India will be happening as you read this forecast. After 34 years of undiluted power, the last of the Communists are going to resign themselves to their worldwide fate of extinction. They should get less than 60 seats in an assembly of 294 seats. That is elimination. Perhaps I exaggerate — at last count there was a Communist party in Cuba, North Korea and Venezuela.

Hints of this forthcoming doom are contained in the Communist manifesto, sorry, the CPM Election Manifesto for the 2011 state elections. Of the three main objectives stated in the manifesto, number one is the following, and it bears quotation in full: “Our main objective is to improve (the) living standard of families below the poverty line and to create opportunities of employment” (emphasis added). Further, if the poor are the base of support for the CPM, then they have lots to worry about. By their own admission, poverty is down to only 20-odd per cent according to the old official poverty line. Which means there are less and less supporters for those whose only slogan is “for the benefit of the poor”. This is a key point and suggests that the CPM has been caught in a time warp of its own making

emerging india ,new factory ,new index for ,indian business

NEW DELHI -- India plans to launch a new industrial output index in June that will reflect April's factory output growth, underscoring the country's recent attempts to add, or refresh, a slew of macroeconomic indicators to help policy makers better assess economic trends.

"How many articles will be included in the new index will be decided Tuesday when the Committee of Secretaries meet," M.C. Singhi, senior economic adviser to the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, said on Monday.

The new series is expected to have more than 300 items as against the current index's 213 and shift its base year to 2004-05 from 1993-94, aligning itself with the recently launched monthly wholesale price index and a consumer price index for rural and urban workers.

Industrial output readings have come under severe criticism from economist

s who blame the archaic composition of the index and non-reliable data collection methods for volatile prints.

In 2010, the readings have swung from 11.30% in October to 3.62% in November.

The most-recent February reading that rose 3.6% from a year earlier was sharply below the median estimate of a 5.2% rise in a poll of 15 economists.

Collecting quality data is extremely difficult in an economy with such a large income disparity and undergoing rapid structural change. A majority of India's 1.2 billion people lives in rural areas on less than $2 a day, which mostly goes toward food. A fast-growing urban middle class, meanwhile, is spending a larger portion of its income on electronics, cars and other trappings of a developed economy.

The proposed index will try to address some of these issues, as it seeks to include personal computers and mobile telephones replacing obsolete type writers and sewing machines.

"Ideally, once the index is revamped with a larger and more relevant basket of products, we should see a higher industrial growth rate, specially in consumer durables," said Amol Agarwal, economist at STCI Primary Dealership.

The change in the base year will also bring the factory output data in line with the gross domestic product number wholesale price index, which will make its easier to interpret the data and add relevance to the print, he added.
