The order was delivered by abench headed by Justice AMKhanwilkar.

On July 15, the SupremeCourt said that its judgement onthe pleas challenging the provi-sions of the Prevention of MoneyLaundering Act (PMLA) was al-most ready.

On March 15 the top court re-served its order on a batch of pe-titions challenging certain provi-sions of the PMLA. Prominentnames like Karti Chidambaramand former Jammu and KashmirChief Minister Mehbooba Muftiwere among the petitioners in thecase.

Allpersons summoned are bound toanswer questions put to them, andto produce the documents as re-quired by the ED officers, failingwhich they can be penalised un-der the PMLA.

EDITORIAL

Cogs in a grey wheelAll too often, for instance in novels about post-

colonial countries, we see a lot of empathy andsensitivity being poured into characters whom

we call the �oppressed�, with very little time and ef-fort spent on the people doing the oppressing, so thatthe �evil dictator�, �crafty politician�, �cruel general�,�bent judge� or �corrupt policeman� (either secret ornot) become cardboard characters. This is unfair andmakes for a shallow understanding of human nature.

Let us imagine a fictional country in our region,one that is definitely not India but one that could be across between two or three neighbouring countriesthat shall remain un-named. It�s a sweltering morningat a major police station in the city of X-bad; the air-con is going off and on because of the bad power sit-uation in the state and the young chief inspector, AnilSheikhratne, is sweating slightly as he goes throughthe files of the serious cases he�s investigating. Aphone call from the assistant commissioner summonshim. The superior pushes forward a handwritten note.�Drop everything else. Copy down this name and thedetails. Take three men and go to Y-calloa. Arrest thisman, bring him here and put him inside.� �Sir, Y-cal-loa is across the country, in that other state.� �Yes, so?I�ve authorised air tickets.� �Sir, what are we arrestinghim for?��Section ___, section ___ and also see if youcan find something in his house to bring in Section___. A copy of his antinational tweets is in your emailinbox.��But Sir, what about the warrant? Won�t I needto get permission from the local thana and the localmagistrate?� �The people above have told me all thatwill be cleared, don�t worry. Now go.�

The first time this happens, Anil is a little con-fused, a little conflicted, and hesitant. To his mind,trained so far in straight police work, the evidence forarrest is thin enough to be non-existent. By the thirdtime he finds himself in an airplane, flying across thecountry to arrest two young women for a Facebookpost critical of his chief minister, Anil is no longer aninnocent: he knows that his mission has nothing to dowith the breaking of any law; in fact, he�s fully awarethat it is he who will be tripping over into deliberatecriminality by carrying out a malicious arrest orderedby his political masters for political reasons; he knowsthat the oath he swore to the Constitution of the Re-public when assuming his policing duties is as goodas flushed down the toilet � he knows he is now justa uniformed henchman of the people in power; heknows that when he returns home.

A festival in Nepal to stopbedwetting in children

As soon as the effigy of demon deityGhantakarna falls down sendingplumes of smoke into the air with

sounds of burning grasses, parents carrytheir children and make them jump acrossthe fire holding them tightly.

Falling on Trayodashi (third day) of themonth of Shrawan (July/August) alsoknown as Ghantakarna Chaturdasi is cele-brated in memory of the mythical demonGhantakarna’s death. Making childrenmostly infants cross the fire is believed toward off the habit of bedwetting and alsoimprove their health. "After the effigy ofGhantakarna is set on fire, the children aremade to hop over or take a round on airabove it, as it is believed that their habit ofcrying over things and bedwetting wouldwarden off," GautamPrajapati, one of theelderly resident of Bhaktapur told ANI.

According to legends, the demonGhantakarna use to terrorize villagers bystealing children and women of the villagedemanding money and other gifts as a ran-som for their release.

His body was painted in red, blue andblack and he wore a pair of bells on hisears. He looked very scary and every timehe moved, the bells jingled. He got hisname from the bells on his ears, i.e. Ghan-ta meaning ’bell’ and Karna meaning ’ears’.

On the day of Gathemangal, locals ofBhaktapur use hay straws to make the effi-gy using bamboo and tie it with hay strawand other decorative. They stick the carv-ing of Ghantakarna on the weaning boardand stick it onto the head to give it properlooks.

"In Newa: language it is called ’Gath-amuga:’, it’s been ages that it is celebrated.Ghantakarna is a demon who used to give alot of trouble to people living in the com-munity. With heightened trouble peoplecame to the conclusion that it should be

dragged and burnt to ashes, this traditionhas been followed since then," SherJyapu,another resident briefed.

The fear of dreadful monsters kept peo-ple inside their homes most of the time.Even during the season of a plantation, they

didn’t dare to get out of their home. How-ever, one day, a large number of frogs cameto the village and began to croak nearGhantakarna’s place.

He became furious but the frogs did notstop. They croaked even louder and when

he tried to catch them, they jumped into thewater. He, too, jumped into the water with-out realizing that it was a swamp and soonstarted to drown. The frogs swarmedaround his head and he drowned to death.In this way, the frogs saved the village andthe villagers from the demon.

Effigies built in the turnings and road-ways of the locality later are dragged andburnt into ashes in areas that lie far from theresidential areas, mostly at the crossroads.

This festival also is celebrated as asymbol of cleanliness, even though thegarbage inside and outside the house iscleaned and disposed of in a systematicmanner. This festival is celebrated bycleaning the garbage by calling it a ghost toget rid of it as it does not pay attention tosanitation during the planting period andvarious insects are causing grief at thistime.

Farmers after cultivation of paddies inAshar; clean premises as well as surround-ings of our house and make Gathemangalusing the hay-straws and other decorative.Each of the ward and tole burns the effigy,there’s a scientific benefit behind the burn-ing of these effigies; at this time, the weath-er is fruitful for breeding mosquitos andother insects. Burning of the effigies andhay straws ignites smoke which wouldshoo off mosquitos, this tradition recurs an-nually.

On the day of Gathemangal, a person isappointed as a symbol of the offspring of ademon named Ghantakarna and asked topay for his deeds. It is customary to driveout ghosts by burning torches day andnight. In the evening, the idol of Ghan-takarna is dragged to a nearby river andburnt. It is customary to put a three-leggedor five-legged fortified iron, brass or cop-per ring on the doorstep of the house afterthe bell has rung.

Bangladesh traders forced to exportleather to China at low prices

Bangladesh is lagging behind inthe world market even thoughthe quality of the leather is

good as the traders are forced to ex-port leather to China at low prices.

As per the guidelines, those whosell leather must have a LeatherWorking Group (LWG) certificate,the only institution in the country thathas that full certificate. Using this op-portunity, Chinese companies arebuying leather at a low price. Chinadoes not attach much importance tothis certificate, reported BangladeshLivenews.

Although unable to provide spe-cific information, Bangladesh Tan-ners Association (BTA) says that

about 70 per cent of leather andleather products are exported fromthe country. Half of the exports go toChina alone. The remaining 30 percent is used in the local industry of thecountry. According to the data ofBTA, among the exportable leather,Japan, South Korea, Vietnam andthree European countries, England,Italy and Portugal, export the most.Besides, some skins are sold in somecountries of America.

The amount of leather exportedby these countries is equal to orslightly more than leather is exportedonly to China, where the price ofleather is less than half of those coun-tries, reported Bangladesh Livenews.

In this regard, BTA General SecretaryMd Sakhawat Ullah told Jago Newsthat Bangladesh traders are forced tostay in China’s syndicate market justbecause the compliance issue is notright.

"I can’t use it even though it hasunlimited sources worldwide. Notcertified by the Leather WorkingGroup (LWG), the global certificationbody for the leather industry. As a re-sult, I am failing to capture the bigmarket. Again, it is not possible to en-sure the fair price of leather in the lo-cal market," said Ullah. Traders saythey are forced to export leather toChina at low prices. At present, salesof leather products have increased in

various countries of Europe andAmerica after overcoming the effectsof the COVID-19 pandemic, reportedBangladesh Livenews. As a result,prices in the world market also in-creased, however, China is taking halfof the leather from the country at avery low price. Most exporters cannottake advantage of the increase in theprice of leather in the internationalmarket Because there is no export dueto a lack of LWG certificate.

In addition to raw leather, leatherfootwear, belts, wallets, various typesof ladies’ bags, various types of box-es, jackets, hand-gloves, and car ac-cessories are being exported fromBangladesh.

It allows doctors to choose clip size based on a patient’s mitral valve anatomy and a new leaflet grasping technology that allows doctors to grasp leaflets simultaneously or independently.Speaking about this new technique, Dr. Sai Satish said “These patients had sustained extensive damage to their hearts, and were in refractory heart failure in spite of being optimally treated with medication and all other currently available heart failure devices. Two out of the three also had aortic valves procedures done previously which had further altered their mitral anatomies. The intractable heart failure coupled with these extreme anatomical challenges would have made it impossible to treat them with any conventional device available today.

World Hepatitis Day 2022: Awareness keyto eliminate viral hepatitis from India

CHANDIGARH, JULY 27

Liver diseases and liver cancers are a common cause of deathand disability in our country. Nearly a third of all patientswith liver cirrhosis, and over half of liver cancers are relatedto hepatitis B and C. In the current era, both diseases areeasily detected and treatable. Unfortunately, they usually goundiagnosed until damage to the liver has already been done.It is deeply disturbing that thousands of deaths could havebeen prevented by a simple blood test and taking a tablet.The WHO designated 28th July as World Hepatitis Day toraise awareness about viral hepatitis. 28th July was thebirthday of Nobel Laureate Baruch Samuel Blumberg, whodiscovered the hepatitis B virus. With an aim to achievehepatitis elimination by 2030, this year’s theme is - “I Can’tWait”. The theme could not be more apt. As a liver specialistdealing with potentially preventable deaths and sufferingevery day, I can’t wait for viral hepatitis to be eliminatedfrom India. My focus in this article would be Hepatitis B andC- viruses which cause chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, andliver cancer. Hepatitis B and C are both transmitted throughbodily fluids. So, contact with contaminated blood products,unsafe injections and unsafe sexual practices are commonmodes of transmission.

uperstar Salman Khan on Monday said films from the south are doing "really well" and though every artiste wants to make a good movie, there is no formula to guarantee box office Ssuccess. Khan recently came on board to present the Hindi version of Kichcha Sudeepa's

upcoming Kannada fantasy action-adventure film "Vikrant Rona". At a special event of the film, Khan interacted with the cast when actor Neetha Ashok said she was taken aback after she saw that the Bollywood superstar had shared the movie's trailer on Twitter. To this, Khan said, "I'm also presenting the film! I have to do this (promotions). I don't want to go into losses... South films are doing really well." At the same time, the 56-year-old actor believes there is no formula to deliver a successful movie."We all try and make the best film, we want it to reach everyone. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. There's no formula to this, that something will work 100 per cent," he said. In recent times, films like Telugu actioners "Pushpa - The Rise", "RRR" and "KGF: Chapter 2" (Kannada) emerged as the biggest hits of the industry, while many Bollywood movies failed to deliver. The Hindi film industry has so far only seen hits like "Gangubai Kathiawadi", "The Kashmir Files", "Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2" and "Juggjug Jeeyo". Sudeepa said he doesn't want to "generalise" the success of south films as he believes that if Bollywood didn't have good work to offer, it wouldn't have lasted this long. "A lot of films are made in a year, not every film does well. A couple of films do, a couple of films don't. That doesn't mean that we generalise and say it (the industry) is dominating. There are good times for everything. If the Hindi film industry wasn't doing great films, if it didn't have great people, how would you sustain for so many years?" he said. Drawing a comparison with cricketer Virat Kohli, who is currently struggling with form, Sudeepa said it is just a matter of time before things get back on track. "It's just a matter of (time)... It's like Virat Kohli being out of form for a while. Are you going to take away his records? It doesn't work that way... Every industry is standing by its potential," he added. Sudeepa, 48, said the cultural exchange across industries points to artistes being absolutely secure. Citing "Vikrant Rona" as an example, the actor said the film shows how collaborations work with Khan presenting the movie and Jacqueline Fernandez starring in it. "We collaborate with Hindi films, sir (Khan) is now supporting our film... Within the industry, why would she (Fernandez) come and do this, why would we call her? "Right now, sir is doing a prime role in Hyderabad, he's going (for shoot) and coming back. Why would he do that? All of us are secure. It's a beautiful thing to exchange ideas, collaborate... It's a beautiful atmosphere that we have," Sudeepa said. Khan, who is set to star in the Telugu film "Godfather" alongside Chiranjeevi, said the cultural exchange between the various film industries has always been there. "For some reason it had stopped. I've worked with a lot of talent from the south, I've worked with him (Sudeepa), Prakash Raj, Prabhudeva, a lot of south directors and DOPs... All the south people have worked here and given big hits," Khan added. Directed by Anup Bhandari, "Vikrant Rona" is a 3D fantasy action-adventure film. It is scheduled to be released on Thursday in Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi.

ou don't plan great things, they just happen," says soon-to-be-mother Alia Bhatt, who believes in trusting her instincts in most Yof her professional and personal life decisions.

Bhatt, 29, announced her pregnancy in June on Instagram, two months after she tied the knot with fellow Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor, 39. While the couple was flooded with best wishes, Bhatt was subjected to online trolling for embracing motherhood early in her life. "Everything a woman does is put in headlines. Whether she has decided to become a mother, she is dating somebody new, she is going for a cricket match or on a holiday. For some reason, the eyeballs are always on women's choices," the actor told news agency in an interview here. Bhatt, who had shared the news of her pregnancy while shooting for her Hollywood debut "Heart of Stone" in London, was soon targeted for making a life-altering decision at the peak of her career. The actor, known for films such as "Highway", "Udta Punjab", "Raazi" and her recent release "Gangubai Kathiawadi", completes a decade in films this November. "Of course, I am young, but why does that have to change anything? Why does having a family or a child have to change my professional life? They are two completely different things. I would continue to and prefer to lead by example and action as opposed to giving any attention to the nonsensical things," she said.
