Hurting ethos of democracyd

elivering a lecture in Gujarat, supreme Court Judge

Justice Chandrachud has said that blanket labelling

of dissent as anti-national or anti-democratic

strikes at the heart of our commitment to protect constitu-

tional values and the promotion of deliberative democracy

and has called dissent a safety valve of democracy.

Protecting dissent is but a reminder that while a democratic

elected government offers us a legitimate tool for develop-

ment and social coordination, they can never claim a mo-

nopoly over the values and identities that define our plural

society. employment of state machinery to curb dissent in-

stills fear and creates a chilling atmosphere on free peace

which violates the rule of law and distracts from the consti-

tutional vision of pluralist society. The destruction of spaces

for questioning and dissent destroys the basis of all growth-

-political, economic, cultural and social. In this sense, dis-

sent is a safety valve of democracy. silencing of dissent and

the generation of fear in the minds of people go beyond the

violation of personal liberties and a commitment to consti-

tutional value. The attack on dissent strikes at the heart of a

dialogue-based democratic society and hence, a state is re-

quired to ensure that it deploys its machinery to protect the

freedom of speech and expression within the bounds of law,

and dismantle any attempt to instill fear or curb free speech.

Commitment to the protection of deliberative dialogue is an

essential aspect of every democracy, particularly a success-

ful one. A democracy welded to the ideal of reason and de-

liberation ensures that minority opinions are not strangu-

lated and ensures that every outcome is not a result merely

of numbers but of a shared consensus. The true test of a

democracy is its ability to ensure the creation and protec-

tion of spaces where every individual can voice their opinion

without the fear of retribution. Inherent in the liberal prom-

ise of the Constitution is a commitment to a plurality of

opinion. A legitimate government committed to deliberate

dialogue does not seek to restrict political contestation but

welcomes it. Taking democracy seriously requires us to re-

spond respectfully to the intelligence of others and to partic-

ipate vigorously, but as an equal in determining how we

should live together. democracy is judged not just by the in-

stitutions that formally exist but by the extent to which dif-

ferent voices from diverse sections of the people can actually

be heard, respected and accounted for. The great threat to

pluralism is the suppression of differences and silencing of

popular and unpopular voices offering alternative or oppos-

ing views. suppression of intellect is the suppression of the

conscience or the nation. national unity denotes a shared

cultural values and a commitment to the fundamental ideal

of Constitution in which all individuals are guaranteed not

just fundamental rights but also the conditions for their free

and safe exercise. no single individual or institution can

claim a monopoly over the idea of India.

India’s disturbing trauma narrativeBY : VIKRAM PATEL

In the silence over violence be-ing perpetrated against children,the country appears to have lost itsmoral compass. If the seizure of apair of slippers of an 11-year-old asevidence in an investigation in asedition case in bidar, Karnataka,was not ludicrous enough, the im-prisonment of a mother of a stu-dent in the same case for havingcontributed to the script of an ap-parently seditious primary schoolplay, the arrest of the principal forallowing it to be performed in herschool, and the interrogation of thechildren by uniformed police offi-cers in the absence of any childwelfare workers, would make aperfect script for an Orwelliannightmare. Violation of rights. Forthose puzzled readers who may bewondering what the pair of slip-pers might have to do with this sur-real theatre, it was the very objectreferred to in the play, according tomedia reports, when a child says“the boy who was selling tea till theother day is asking us for docu-ments. I’ll ask him where he wasborn and where his papers are. Ifhe does not provide them, I willbeat him with my slippers”. even ifsome patriots might argue that achild’s slippers could indeed beused to wage war on our great na-tion and the remand report for thetwo women “found grounds forsuspicion that the two influencedthe children”, the students them-selves insisted, even after repeatedinterrogation, that they wrote the

play themselves.On the other hand, one child

told HuffPost India, “we werescared. The policemen raised theirvoice every time they questionedus.” not surprisingly, many stu-dents have stopped going to schoolsince then. I imagine most peoplewould think that this story must befake news not only because it is soutterly absurd but also because ourpolice who cannot find a momentto stop the lawless mayhem on ourroads which have made India oneof the world’s largest traffic-deathcountries must surely be doingmore important things. but thesoul-crushing truth is that theseevents did happen. Leaving asidethe numbing irony that a law de-

signed by the british to suppressthe freedom of speech of ouravowedly non-violent independ-ence activists should now be usedby the police to suppress the free-dom of expression of schoolchild-ren, my anguish is because of theterror that these children musthave experienced as a result of thisordeal. not only did the arrest ofthe mother, a single parent, leavethe child in the care of a neighbourbut the arrest of the principal oftheir school left all the childrenwithout their trusted head-mistress. simultaneously, the po-lice, threatening as they must haveseemed to the children in their fullregalia and having carted away themother and principal to jail, were

trying to get them to squeal incrim-inating evidence which could beused against these very trustedadults. On ‘toxic stress’. Thesetraumatic experiences are not onlya violation of the fundamentalrights of the child but are severelydamaging to their mental health.As the media reported, one childsaid when her mother was finallyreleased, “I felt lonely and sad be-cause all I have is my mother. Ihave never lived without her for asingle day. so I was terrified.”

The most damaging kind oftrauma is that which results in“toxic stress”, a term used to de-scribe a child’s experience of per-sistent adversity or abuse.Persistence, with no hope of escap-ing the threatening situation, is thehallmark of toxic stress. Perhapsthe most vicious example is un-folding in Kashmir where, aftertwo decades of living in a contextsuffused with the fear of violencefrom one side or the other, childrenhave been subjected to six monthsof a lockdown, losing their funda-mental rights of freedom to learn,play and be carefree. worse, theymust witness, silently, the mount-ing rage and helplessness thatdominates the emotional land-scape of their parents and theircommunity, compounding theirown feelings of insecurity, hope-lessness and alienation. There arenow many reports of the mentalhealth crisis engulfing young peo-ple in the Valley. The events inKashmir and Karnataka are not an

If demand doesn’t improve,firms might retain the tax cut bo-nanza instead of investing. Itwould've been better to put morecash in the pockets of individualsby giving more IT relief. Amid anatmosphere of gloom and doom(triggered by growth plunging to alow of less than five per cent duringthe current year and muted projec-tions for next year), it is necessaryto closely scrutinise tax proposalsin the Union budget for 2020-21 toassess whether or not these willgenerate the much-needed growthimpulses. The four major factorsimpinging on a surge are privateconsumption, investment, exportand spending by the state. TheModi Government has kept up thetempo of expenditure by way ofbuilding infrastructure and spend-ing on welfare schemes. On the ex-port front, given the all-round de-pressed growth and internationaltrading environment, there is littlethat it can do in terms of using thislever for providing the much-need-ed fillip. Therefore, much of the fo-cus has to be on the first two levers,i.e. private consumption and in-vestment. The big question iswhether the tax proposals will helpin boosting demand. First, let uslook at the changes in personal in-

come tax (PIT). At present, a per-son having an income of rs2,50,001-rs 5,00,000 per annumpays a tax of five per cent, thoseearning more than rs 5,00,000but less than rs 10,00,000 pay 20per cent tax whereas, someonehaving an income higher than rs10,00,000 pays 30 per cent.Accompanying this are a plethoraof exemptions and deductions viz.section 80C (annual investment,expenses, life insurance premiumand so on, up to rs 150,000),section 80d (health insurancepremiums), section 24 (interest onhome loans), section 80CCd (in-cluding extra nPs contribution upto rs 50,000), section 80e (edu-cation loan interest) and section 16(standard deduction on salary in-come) and so on. This budget, evenwhile retaining five per cent tax forannual income in the rs 2,50,001-rs 5,00,000 range, on incomehigher than rs 5,00,000, proposesa differentiated structure with fiveslabs against two under the exist-ing scheme of things. The pro-posed slabs and corresponding taxrates are 10 per cent for rs5,00,001-rs 7,50,000; 15 per centfor rs 7,50,001-rs 10,00,000; 20per cent for rs 10,00,001-rs12,50,000; 25 per cent for rs12,50,001-rs 15,00,000 and forthose earning above rs 15,00,000

a tax of 30 per cent. A person whodecides to avail lower tax rates un-der the new scheme will have toforego most exemptions and de-ductions. In other words, he can ei-ther continue with the existingscheme or go for the new regime.no cherry picking is permitted.

For a person availing of mosttax breaks, switch-over to the newregime won’t yield any savings. Hecould even be worse off dependingon the income profile and deduc-tions/exemptions availed. For in-stance, a person having an annual

income of rs 15,00,000 and avail-ing tax breaks aggregating rs3,75,000 (section 80C:1,50,000;section 80d: 25,000; section 24:2,00,000) or net income rs11,25,000 will have to pay rs1,56,000 as tax. In case however,he opts for the new scheme i.e. tax-able income remaining at rs15,00,000 but lower rates, his taxliability will be rs 1,95,000. Thisbeing rs 39,000 higher, he wouldprefer to continue with the oldscheme. However, the reality on

by throwing his weight behindIslamabad on the Kashmir issue,erdogan unambiguously signalled hisintention to emerge as the imam of thenew Caliphate he hopes to lead. evenif we overlook the facts about whichnation is “occupying” Kashmir, bystating that there is “no difference be-tween Gallipoli and occupiedKashmir”, Turkish President recepTayyip erdogan unambiguously sig-nalled his intention to emerge as the“imam” of the new (pseudo) Caliphatehe hopes to lead by 2023, the cente-nary of the Turkish republic.Addressing a joint session ofPakistan’s Parliament (February 14),he lauded sacrifices made by it in thewar on terror and the “positive contri-butions” it made to the Afghanistanpeace process and promised supportduring the Financial Action TaskForce (FATF) meet in Paris (February16-21, 2020). His denunciation of UsPresident donald Trump’s Mideastplan hints at an eventual challenge toriyadh in the region. erdogan’s deter-mination to restore the Caliphate hascreated a visible schism between theArab states formally led by saudiArabia and the non-Arab states led byTurkey. A nascent axis is discerniblebetween Turkey, Malaysia andPakistan; Iran and Qatar complete theanti-riyadh alignment. erdogan de-

clared in February 2018, “Therepublic of Turkey is a continuationof the Ottoman empire the essence isthe same, soul is the same”Unsurprisingly, Ankara has emergedas the new hub for anti-India activitiesby Pakistan’s Inter-servicesIntelligence (IsI). Unknown to mostpeople, Turkey has universal jurisdic-tion laws as part of its domestic laws.Article 13 of the Turkish Penal Codestates, “Turkish law shall apply to” thecrime of torture “committed in a for-

eign country whether or not commit-ted by a citizen or non-citizen.”

Khalistanis tried to invoke theselaws. sikhs for Justice, a group work-ing for a referendum (“referendum2020”) to create Khalistan, is believedto be funded by the IsI. In October2018, its legal advisor, Gurpatwantsingh Pannun, filed a case againstPunjab Chief Minister CaptainAmarinder singh when he visitedTurkey to pay homage at Gallipoli tosoldiers from the First Patiala

Infantry regiment (now 15 Punjab),who lost their lives in world war I, onthe centenary of the Great war.Pannun went to Gallipoli to secure anarrest warrant and restrain thePunjab Chief Minister from leavingTurkey. As the Captain was on a non-official trip, he lacked diplomatic im-munity as under the Vienna Protocol,only the Prime Minister and externalAffairs Minister are “protected per-sons” when abroad in personal capac-ity. In Pakistan, erdogan lauded a1915 rally in Lahore, led by AllamaIqbal, where people from present-dayPakistan supported the Turkish peo-ple and blatantly ignored the sacri-fices made by Indian soldiers atGallipoli (battle of Çanakkale), possi-bly because the bells tolled for theOttoman empire. Turkey’s domesticlaws explain why ex-IAs officer shahFaesal was going to Turkey on August14, 2019, soon after the Centre abro-gated Article 370 and divided thestate of Jammu & Kashmir into theUnion Territories of Jammu andKashmir and Ladakh. It is possiblethat some foreign mentors askedFaesal to invoke these laws in Turkey.He was to file a case of human rightsviolations against Union HomeMinister Amit shah, defence Ministerrajnath singh, the then Chief of Armystaff Gen bipin rawat and others, onbehalf of his political party, Jammu &

When the Donald Trump administration in the United Statesimplemented its policy to reduce illegal immigration by sep-arating children from their parents at the U.S. border withMexico, there were harrowing consequences on the mentalhealth of the children. A report, published by the U.S. govern-ment’s own inspectors, confirmed that separation of childrenfrom their parents had caused grievous psychological harmand laid the foundations for lasting and profound mentalhealth problems in later life. Virtually every major Americanprofessional society concerned with mental health, publichealth or children’s health condemned the government’s ac-tions as an assault on children’s rights and well-being. Whilethere has been a deathly silence from most professionalgroups in India in response to the gratuitous levels of violencebeing perpetrated against our children by the state, a fewcourageous institutions stand out for doing their job.

1878 : Murder ignites Lincoln County WarLong simmering tensions in Lincoln County, new Mexico, explode into

a bloody shooting war when gunmen murder the english rancher JohnTunstall. Tunstall had established a large ranching operation in LincolnCounty two years earlier in 1876, stepping into the middle of a dangerouspolitical and economic rivalry for control of the region. Two Irish-Americans, J.J. dolan and L.G. Murphy, operated a general store called TheHouse, which controlled access to lucrative beef contracts with the govern-ment. The big ranchers, led by John Chisum and Alexander Mcsween,didn’t believe merchants should dominate the beef markets and began tochallenge The House.

sC allows women officers to get command positions in the Army andquashes use of gender stereotypes as an argument. Thanks to thesupreme Court, women officers in the Army can now get command posi-tions at par with male officers and break the glass ceiling in the forces. Innon-combat roles for the time being. However, the sad part is that theyhad to fight for it legally rather than being naturalised in the just order ofthings, considering that they were inducted in the Army in 1992, a long 28years ago. An entire generation has grown up in between. In this sense,the ruling is more than significant, it is a landmark. For it reminded thearmed forces that as part of an institution that codified discipline, values,honesty, decency and honour, their despotic version of patriarchy, pre-venting women from leading men beyond event parades, was “discrimi-natory” and “disturbing.” In fact, it went against the very principles of

equality and fairness that the Army professes from timeto time. In the process, the court also underlined the needfor a mindset change in the evolutionary flow of changingtimes, not just in the Army but everywhere. It said thatdeep-rooted stereotypes, that men are dominant andwomen are primary caretakers, need to go away. It evendismissed the argument of women being unfit physicallyand compromised by family duties as creating an “artifi-cial” distinction, considering that they have still not beencleared for active combat. The court demolished all chau-vinist arguments that can be used as a precedent in decid-ing similar cases of gender parity, tersely: “To cast asper-sions on gender is an affront to their (the women’s) digni-ty and to the country. Time has come that women officersare not adjunct to their male counterparts. Physiologicalfeatures of women have no link to their rights. The mind-set must change. women work shoulder to shoulder withmen.” with these words, Justices dy Chandrachud andAjay rastogi upheld the equality of opportunity for allcitizens, elevating functionality above gender and treat-ing human resource in any discipline as deserving of re-spect than either an entitlement or a consolation prize. Italso implied that cultural arguments have no place whenit comes to the larger duty of protecting the nation. Thecourt, knowing the tendency of institutions to not followits orders, said permanent commission would be avail-able to all women, regardless of their years of service andthat the judgment had to be implemented within threemonths. what all this means is that service conditions ofmen and women officers will be exactly the same and thatthe latter shall also be provided with choices of speciali-sation like their male counterparts. A woman can rise tothe rank of Colonel and even lead battalions. women of-ficers, who have been retired, will also get pension bene-fits. If the court had to admonish one of the highest insti-

tutions of the land one that is expected to rise above soci-etal ills and be progressive and liberal on gender injus-tice, then clearly it is confirmation of inherent biasesamong the privileged, too. where women officers can betest cases but not decisive enough, where they may be rel-egated to staff duties but not challenge the male bastion.The Government’s regressive stand on limiting women’srole in the Army is hypocritical considering its own de-partments have had all-women marching contingents inrepublic day parades, the Indian Air Force (IAF) allowsthem to become fighter pilots and the Army has even sentthem to tough Un peacekeeping missions globally.Unless they were just tokenism to boost propaganda thanreally honour winners of the seva medals and Vishisthseva medals. The next question, therefore, is should thebuck stop with just entrusting greater responsibility tothem? Are women just worthy of being included in non-combat roles only? In actuality, like their male counter-parts, they, too, give up on all familial commitments to bepart of the Army. They, too, undergo the same rigorousselection and training procedures as their male peers.none is arguing that the Army lower its standards. but ifwomen have made it through all kinds of selection crite-ria, then they should at least be given a chance to provetheir mettle. For they are often made a scapegoat for thefailure in upgrading standards and changing the statusquo. The issue is not only about whether women can beinducted in combat roles but how to make it happen witha radical overhaul of personnel policy. Other nations, in-cluding the Us, Australia, Canada, denmark, France,Germany and Israel, allow women to be part of certaincombat units. by resisting change, the Army wouldn’twant to be out of sync with an India that is resetting itself.Certainly, it doesn’t suit its image when the court has to prodit all the time. It needs to be the initiator, not a follower.

Of course, his arrival in the netherlands would beembarrassing for India. but if Faesal really wanted to go toThe Hague, he could have taken a direct flight to Amsterdam.His plan was to exploit Turkey’s Article 13 universal jurisdic-tion law. some human rights nGO would receive him atAnkara, where he would be lionised as a civil service topper(2010) and Harvard alumni who quit a Government job toprotest against the activities of the Indian state in Kashmir.Actually Faesal resigned from the service in January 2019 inorder to enter politics. However, the sudden split of Jammu& Kashmir and freeze on political activity nixed his unbornpolitical career, leaving nGO activism his only alternative.

Had he reached Ankara, the international media wouldhave splashed Kashmir on the front pages of all importantnewspapers and magazines and the Indian media would fol-low suit, thus making Faesal the global face of the anti-IndiaIslamic movement. Once he managed to file a case in Turkey,Islamabad would almost certainly have followed up by filinga case against India at the ICJ, where it has suffered reversesin the Kulbhushan Jadhav case. However, Faesal’s mentorscould not anticipate the lookout notices for Kashmiris tryingto leave the country; he was caught at the airport, sent backto srinagar and placed in preventive custody. He has now

been booked under the Public safety Act (February 15). Thisargument can be corroborated from Pakistan PrimeMinister Imran Khan’s tweet on August 15, 2019, where heinvoked srebrenica, site of the 1995 genocide of over 8,000bosnians by the bosnian serb Army led by ratko Mladic.Khan tweeted: “will the world silently witness anothersrebrenica-type massacre and ethnic cleansing of Muslimsin IOK? I want to warn the international community if it al-lows this to happen, it will have severe repercussions and re-actions in the Muslim world setting off radicalisation and cy-cles of violence.” The talk of “massacre and ethnic cleansing”of Kashmiri Muslims is, of course, pure bunkum but thetweet suggests an IsI hand in the aborted Turkish escapade.Meanwhile, erdogan has been cultivating separatist, reli-gious and business leaders and Islamic groups in Kashmirafter the tweaking of Article 370; this goes deeper than histraditional support to Pakistan at the Organisation ofIslamic Conference. Previously also, he supported Pakistanin the FATF. while addressing the Un General Assembly onseptember 25, 2019, he chided the international communityfor not paying proper attention to Kashmir over the past sev-en decades. Interestingly, soon after the FATF and UnGAmeetings, the Indian Overseas Congress headed by rahulGandhi loyalist sam Pitroda opened an office in Istanbul innovember 2019. Possibly the Congress hopes to recover itsonce-committed Muslim vote bank by cultivating the emerg-ing Caliphate; the repercussions on India’s internal affairswill need careful observation.

India’s disturbing .........................................................................aberration. Consider the harrowing accounts of the ex-periences of children in a shelter home in Muzaffarpur,bihar, where young girls were kept locked up for most ofthe day and where they were raped, after being sedated,at night. Investigators observed many signs of mentalhealth problems, for example remarking on how“strangely they behaved”, laughing and crying in rapidsequence, remaining silent for long periods, and appear-ing to be severely depressed. Many girls had self-inflict-ed injuries, a behaviour associated with trauma in chil-dren. Conditions in other shelter homes were not muchbetter, with appalling stories of cruelty and torture, andseveral instances of suicidal behaviour and mentalbreakdown. yet another example of unspeakable vio-lence has unfolded in the past week with dozens of youngwomen being insulted, paraded and forced to removetheir innerwear to prove they were not on their period bytheir principal and school staff after a used personal hy-giene product was found in a garden of their school, inbhuj, Gujarat. “There are no words to describe the hu-miliation that we faced,” said one of the students, as themedia reported. no doubt, the overall atmosphere insuch a school must have been atrociously oppressive.breach of trust Among the most primal emotions whichhumans experience in their earliest years of life is fear.Fear is key to survival for, in leading to behaviours suchas crying, it prompts a trusted adult to respond with af-fection, food or, most importantly, safety. but there aretimes when the fear can have catastrophic consequencesand this is when the threat is persistent and unpre-dictable and, especially when, it is perpetrated by an

adult who the child has been taught to trust and rely onfor their protection — such as the police or the schoolprincipal or the child welfare worker or the army. It isthis breach of the bulwark of trust which is the most poi-sonous toxin for the mind, and it is this feature whichbinds all these forms of trauma together. when thedonald Trump administration in the United states im-plemented its policy to reduce illegal immigration byseparating children from their parents at the U.s. borderwith Mexico, there were harrowing consequences on themental health of the children. A report, published by theU.s. government’s own inspectors, confirmed that sepa-ration of children from their parents had caused griev-ous psychological harm and laid the foundations forlasting and profound mental health problems in laterlife. Virtually every major American professional societyconcerned with mental health, public health or chil-dren’s health condemned the government’s actions asan assault on children’s rights and well-being. whilethere has been a deathly silence from most professionalgroups in India in response to the gratuitous levels of vi-olence being perpetrated against our children by thestate, a few courageous institutions stand out for doingtheir job. In the past week, a panel of the Karnataka stateCommission for Protection of Child rights concludedthat “it is clear that the police violated the rights of thechildren at the [bidar] school”. Let me emphasise thatmy concerns about traumatising children have nothingto do with taking sides with a particular brand of politicsor ideology, but simply about upholding the foundationsof science, the law, ethics and, ultimately, our humanity.

1878 .......................................................he became a leader of the anti-House forces.

He won dolan’s and Murphy’s lasting enmity by estab-lishing a competing general merchandise store in Lincoln.by 1877, the power struggle was threatening to becomeovertly violent, and Tunstall began to hire young gunmenfor protection, including the soon-to-be-infamous williambonney, better known as billy the Kid. early the next year,The House used its considerable political resources tostrike back at Tunstall, winning a court order demandingthat Tunstall turn over some of his horses to pay an out-standing debt. when Tunstall refused to turn over thehorses, the House-controlled Lincoln County sheriff dis-patched a posse-with william Morton, another House sup-porter, at the head-to take them. billy the Kid and severalother Tunstall hands were working on the ranch when theyspotted the approaching posse. Outnumbered, the men

fled, but they had not gone far before they saw Tunstall gal-lop straight up to the posse to protest its presence on hisproperty. As billy and the others watched, Morton pulledhis gun and shot Tunstall dead with a bullet to the head.Although he had not worked for Tunstall long, billy the Kiddeeply resented this cold-blooded murder, and he immedi-ately began a vendetta of violence against The House andits allies. Lincoln County became a war zone, and bothsides began a spree of vicious killings. by July, The Housewas prevailing, having added Mcsween to its lists of vic-tims. However, fighting would continue to erupt sporadi-cally until 1884, when Chisum died of natural causes,and The House finally regained full control of LincolnCounty. by that time, billy the Kid had already been deadfor three years, gunned down by Lincoln County sheriff PatGarrett.

ground zero is that an overwhelming number of assessesare unable to avail of the tax breaks. This is because peo-ple in the early stages of their family life have high expen-diture commitment and hence need more cash in hand,leaving little surplus to invest which is necessary foravailing deductions. Then, there are people at the fagend, say age 55 years plus, who are under no compulsionto save (he has already built a house or nearly completededucation of the children). such people who are unableor unwilling to invest — due to economic circumstancesfacing them — and hence, unable to avail exemptionsand deductions would stand to gain by switching over tothe new dispensation. In the above example (annual in-come rs 15,00,000), the tax liability of such a person un-der the old regime would be rs 2,73,000, which is rs78,000 higher than under the new regime (rs 1,95,000).without doubt, he/she will be inclined to go for the lat-ter. That apart, the FM’s proposals empower assessees totake their own decisions instead of being constrained byavailable tax breaks. someone wanting to have morecash in hand can opt for the new scheme whereas anoth-er person keen to save more can continue with the oldregime. According to an internal exercise by the UnionFinance Ministry, the proposal will entail a loss of rs40,000 crore to the exchequer, which means that muchextra cash in the hand of tax payers which they canspend, thereby giving a boost to demand and in turn,growth. Another proposal expected to put more cash inthe hands of individuals, especially those earning lessthan rs 10,00,000 per annum, relates to the manner oflevying dividend distribution tax (ddT). At present, acompany is required to deduct tax (known as ddT) at therate of 20 per cent (including surcharge and educationcess, this comes to 20.35 per cent) from thesurplus/profit set aside for distribution of dividend toshareholders. The budget proposes to substitute this bytaxing dividends in the hands of recipients/sharehold-ers.This substitution means that retail investors, whoseearnings are in the rs 500,001-rs 750,000 and rs750,001- rs 10,00,000 range, will stand to gain as theywill pay tax on dividend at 10 per cent and 15 per cent re-spectively, as against 20 per cent they pay currently. Thiswill also be a booster to foreign portfolio investors (FPIs)who will be able to claim offset for the tax paid on divi-dend received from companies here in their respectivejurisdictions (this is not possible under the subsistingdispensation of levying tax before distributing profit).Implementation of this proposal will entail an annualloss of rs 25,000 crore to the exchequer. This much ex-tra money in the hands of investors will also help aug-ment purchasing power. Coming to corporate tax, onseptember 20, 2019, Finance Minister nirmala

sitharaman had announced steep reduction in the rateof corporate tax for “new entities” incorporated fromOctober 1, 2019 in the manufacturing sector and startproduction by March 31, 2023 from the existing 25 percent to 15 per cent. such companies won’t have to payminimum alternate tax (MAT) (levied on book profit offirms which have no taxable profit courtesy, exemptionsand incentives). Furthermore, the tax rate on existingcompanies was reduced from 30 per cent to 22 per cent(for small and medium enterprises (sMes) annuallywith a turnover of less than rs 400 crore. This was re-duced from the already preferential 25 per cent to 22 percent) sans exemptions and deductions. These firms arealso exempt from MAT. For companies who decide tocontinue with the old regime viz. tax at 30 per cent withtax breaks, MAT was reduced from existing 18.5 per centto 15 per cent. In the budget for 2020-21, the FM has ex-tended the benefit of 15 per cent rate to “new” powercompanies. besides, “cooperatives” are eligible for the22 per cent rate sans exemptions and deductions. Thesteep reduction in tax rate (for new enterprises, it is at 15per cent. This is lower than other major countries viz theUs 21 per cent, China 25 per cent; even for existing firmsat 22 per cent, this is comparable) is a major structuralreform aimed at making Indian firms more competitiveand leaving more resources with them for increasing in-vestment. The FM has given a choice, enabling them tochoose either the old regime (higher tax rate with ex-emptions) or new regime (lower tax rate sans exemp-tions). The budget proposals (september 2019 and now)entail a mammoth giveaway of about rs 1,50,000 croreper annum. This should help in spurring investment de-mand. However, considering that at present, consump-tion is subdued and already, surplus capacity exists inseveral sectors (major investment by way of setting upnew projects can come only after existing capacities arefully utilised), its impact on growth in the short-termmay not be much. Unless private demand improves sig-nificantly, companies might be inclined to retain the taxcut bonanza instead of investing. It would have been bet-ter if the Government had put more money in the pock-ets of individuals by giving extra relief in PIT (say, by ap-plying 10 per cent tax to the entire income range rs5,00,001- rs 10,00,000 instead of limiting this up to rs7,50,000) as the need for resurrecting growth now is farmore pressing. To conclude, tax proposals in the 2020-21 budget are in the right direction. However, a lot moreneeds to be done in terms of further reducing and simpli-fying the PIT. with regard to corporate tax, theGovernment should aim at 15 per cent rate applicableuniformly to enterprises in all sectors, new and existing(sans exemptions).

A delhi court on Monday orderedthat the four convicts in the nirbhayagangrape-murder case be hanged at 6am on March 3 after it issued freshdeath warrants, saying deferring theexecution further would be “sacrile-gious” to the rights of the victim. Thecourt directed that the four convicts —Mukesh Kumar singh, 32, PawanGupta, 25, Vinay Kumar sharma, 26,and Akshay Kumar, 31, — be hangedby the neck at 6 am on March 3 untilthey are dead. It is for the third timethat the warrants were issued againstthem. “It is hereby directed that thewarrants, vide order dated January 7,2020 in respect of the convictsMukesh, Pawan, Akshay and Vinayshall now be carried out by causingthe condemned convicts to be hanged

until they are dead on March 3 at 6am,” said additional sessions judgedharmender rana. The judge notedthe death warrants were earlier issuedon January 7 and the execution waslater deferred twice — on January 17and January 31. “now deferring it anyfurther would be sacrilegious to therights of the victim for expeditiousjustice,” he said. nirbhaya’s motherAsha devi expressed the hope that thefour convicts would finally be hangedon March 3. she said: “we have strug-gled so much. but we have completefaith in the judiciary. Our real victorywould be when the convicts are actu-ally hanged.” nirbhaya’s father saidthe family has been receiving congrat-ulatory messages stating their seven-year-old struggle for justice will final-ly come to an end. He said the courtorder goes to show that sooner or latercriminals are brought to justice.

nirbhaya’s family lawyer seemaKushwaha, however, claimed that de-fence lawyer A.P. singh was mislead-ing people and the convicts’ familiesinto thinking he will be able to savethe convicts. The two death warrants

issued earlier could not be executedas the convicts took it in turns to useevery legal option available to them.The first date of execution, January22, was postponed to February 1 by aJanuary 17 court order. Then the trial

court, on January 31, stayed “till fur-ther orders” the execution of the fouras they had not exhausted all their le-gal remedies. The fresh death warrantwas issued after delhi’s Tihar jail au-thorities informed the trial court thatthree of the four convicts had exhaust-ed all legal options and none of themhave any correspondence pending atthe moment. Pawan is the only con-vict who has not filed a curative peti-tion the last legal remedy available toa person which is decided in-chamberor mercy plea before the President.The trial court said: “There is only twopossible inferences for such indo-lence: 1) either convict Pawan is satis-fied with the verdict of the supremeCourt; or 2) he is simply interested indelaying court proceedings. In eithercase, he cannot claim that the execu-tion of the sentence needs to be de-layed further.” The trial court noted

that the delhi high court had given“one more opportunity” to Pawan,“unambiguously clarifying to exercisehis rights within a week, failing whichrequisite action shall be initiatedwithout any further delay”. The courtsaid Pawan cannot be allowed to de-feat the ends of justice by simply opt-ing to remain indolent. All four con-victs have already exhausted the oneweek allowed by the high court to ex-ercise all their legal options and willneed to go to the supreme Court to getan extension. Akshay’s counsel hasnow informed the court that he hasprepared a fresh mercy petition to bemoved before the President. One ofthe four convicts, Vinay, has startedhungerstrike at Tihar Jail after his pe-tition challenging President ramnath Kovind’s rejection of his mercyplea was turned down by the supremeCourt last week.

Coronavirus cases top 500 oncruise ship off JapanYokohama, Feb 18

Another 88 people aboard a cruise ship off Japan have tested

positive for the coronavirus, authorities said Tuesday, as those free

of the disease hoped they were spending their last night on board

before disembarking. The new cases take the total from the

diamond Princess to 542 -- easily the biggest cluster outside the

epicentre in China -- as the cruise ship has proved an especially vir-

ulent breeding ground for the virus despite quarantine.

The new cases will be sent to specialised hospitals, the ministry

said in a statement, without giving further details such as their na-

tionalities.

sixty-five of those who tested positive were not yet showing

symptoms.

britain became the latest country to offer its citizens a way off

the boat, saying it was "working to organise a flight back to the UK"

as doubts grow over the effectiveness of the quarantine measures

with every spike in positive cases.

Canada, Australia, Hong Kong and south Korea have already

said they will evacuate their citizens from the ship, following the

lead from the United states, which flew home around 300

Americans on Monday -- including more than a dozen who had

tested positive. "we have done tests for everyone (on the ship),"

Japanese Health Minister Katsunobu Kato told reporters. "some

results have already come out... and for those whose test results are

already clear, we are working to prepare disembarkation," he said.

In a letter sent to passengers, authorities explained that some test

results would take time to process and that therefore "we plan the

disembarkation to take place from 19 to 21 February". "If you and

your roommate are both negative and have no fever of respiratory

symptoms, you will be able to prepare for disembarkation," the let-

ter said. but those who had close contact with anyone who tested

positive will have their quarantine reset to the last date. The crew,

some of whom have complained about conditions on board, are al-

so expected to remain to observe another quarantine period after

the last passengers leave the ship. Japan has been forced to defend

its policy amid criticism for the way it handled the situation, with

dozens of new infections detected almost daily since the ship ar-

rived in early February. britain became the latest country to offer

repatriate nationals from the diamond Princess, but gave no de-

tails when it would take place. There were 256 Canadians on board

the ship, with 32 so far testing positive for the virus .south Korea

will send a presidential aircraft on Tuesday to fly back four nation-

als and one Japanese spouse, an official told reporters. There are 14

south Koreans on board, but the other ten have declined to be evac-

uated because they live in Japan, the yonhap news agency report-

ed.

while foreign governments have couched their decision to re-

move citizens as an attempt to reduce the burden on Japanese au-

thorities, many have interpreted the evacuations as tacit criticism

of Tokyo's handling of the situation. The Us and Australia have

told citizens that if they decline repatriation and an additional 14-

day quarantine, they will not be allowed home for at least two

weeks, suggesting they do not believe the ship-based quarantine

worked. Japan has also confirmed at least 74 cases domestically --

including many involving people with no history of recent travel to

China. Authorities say the virus is now being transmitted locally,

and have asked citizens to avoid crowds and non-essential gather-

ings. On Monday, the amateur portion of the Tokyo Marathon --

which had been expected to attract some 38,000 runners -- was

cancelled. Only elite athletes will now take part. The public cele-

Army officer died fightingterrorists last year. Now, 28-yr-oldwife signs upDehradun Feb 18

Twenty-eight-year-old nitika Kaul is all set to join the Indian

Army. Her husband was Major Vibhuti shankar dhoundiyal, who

was killed during a gun battle with Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) ter-

rorists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama in February last year.

They had got married in April the year before. Kaul, who is from

Kashmir, has cleared the short service Commission (ssC) exami-

nation as well as the interview. she is now waiting for the merit list

to be declared after which she will join the forces as a cadet. she

said this was her way of paying a “real tribute” to the officer and

feeling close to him. Kaul, who lives with her parents in delhi and

works with a multinational company, now wants to focus on being

a good officer like her husband.

“I want to learn new things as it is a major shift for me from the

corporate culture I am so used to, to the disciplined culture of

armed forces,” she said. “I took my own time to recover from the

major loss and the decision to sit for the short service Commission

examination happened gradually. Just filling the form in

september last year was a big decision. but I had decided that I

want to walk on a similar path like my husband,” said Kaul. she

said the process of taking the exam helped her know what her hus-

band had gone through while writing it. “It was a very emotional

moment for me to enter that examination hall, given what I had ex-

perienced,” she said recalling the day she sat for the exam. “At the

same time, I was thinking that my husband would have gone

through the same situation, of clearing the first examination as a

step towards joining the forces… It made me feel closer to Vibhu,”

she said. she said it was not easy to get back to normal life after her

husband’s death and “drowned myself in work, hoping the pain

will ease…” “I went back to work around 15 days after my husband’s

death because I wanted to keep myself busy. It is natural to have a

breakdown but we needed to accept the situation. I had to find pos-

itivity in my daily routine and stand up on my feet once again,” she

added. she said going out with her cousins for the first time was al-

so a major step she took after her husband’s death.

“There was an internal resistance. I was not completely willing

to go outside but then when a loved one leaves, you have to think

whether they would have wanted to see you in such a sad state. I al-

ways thought what Vibhu would have wanted me to do and I got my

answer.”

Beijing, Feb 18

A hospital director at the epi-centre of China's virus epidemicdied Tuesday, state media said, thelatest medical worker to fall victimto the coronavirus which hasspread across the country. TheCOVId-19 virus, which is believedto have originated in wuhan latelast year, has spread to more than72,000 people and killed 1,900 inChina.Liu Zhiming, the director ofwuchang Hospital in wuhan, diedTuesday morning after "all-out res-cue efforts failed," state broadcast-er CCTV reported.

He is the first known hospitaldirector to have died from the coro-navirus.

At least six other medical work-ers have died from the virus, while1,716 have been infected, accordingto official figures.

Liu's death was initially report-ed by Chinese media and bloggersshortly after midnight on Tuesday -- but the stories were later deleted

and replaced with reports that doc-tors were still attempting to savehim.

The hospital director's deathhas echoes of the death of wuhanophthalmologist Li wenliang, whohad been punished by authoritiesfor sounding the alarm about thevirus in late december.

Li's death prompted a nationaloutpouring of grief as well as angeragainst the authorities, who wereaccused of mishandling the crisis.

People took to social mediaonce more to mourn Liu on

Tuesday, with many users on theTwitter-like weibo platform draw-ing comparisons between Liu'sdeath and Li's, which was also ini-tially reported by state media andthen denied hours before being fi-nally confirmed again.

doctors in wuhan face short-ages of masks and protective body-suits, with some even wearingmakeshift hazmat suits and contin-uing to work despite showing respi-ratory symptoms, because of a lackof medical staff, health workershave told AFP.

UK budget on March 11as planned: new financeministerLondon, Feb 18

britain's first budget following brexit willtake place on March 11 as planned, the coun-try's new finance minister rishi sunak saidTuesday after the shock resignation of prede-cessor sajid Javid. "Cracking on with prepara-tions for my first budget on March 11," tweetedsunak, who Prime Minister boris Johnson lastweek appointed to the post of chancellor of theexchequer.

Following suggestions the budget could bedelayed to give sunak more time to prepare forthe key event, the new finance chief added thatthe annual update on government tax andspend plans "will deliver on the promises wemade to the british people -- levelling up andunleashing the country's potential".

Javid resigned after Johnson offered tokeep him on only if he sacked all his politicaladvisers, as the prime minister's downingstreet office looks to have greater say overTreasury policy. sunak, 39, had been Javid'sdeputy. britain finally departed the europeanUnion on January 31, leaving Johnson taskedwith striking trade deals worldwide. He mean-while wishes to improve productivity in citiesoutside of London with the help of massive in-frastructure projects like the new high-speedrailway Hs2.

One of the first compli-ments came from shabana Azmi who saidthat suhana Khan is fantastic.

bollywood actress sonam Kapoor has slammedrashtriya swayamsevak sangh (rss) chief Mohan bhagwat,calling his comments on divorce regressive and foolish.Through a post on Twitter, sonam slammed bhagwat whilesharing a link of a story wherein he states "divorce casesmore in educated, affluent families".In the story, reportedfrom a public event on sunday, bhagwat said that cases of di-vorce were found more in educated and affluent families,and he had argued that education and wealth came with ar-rogance, which destroyed families. "nowadays the numberof divorce cases have increased a lot. People fight over trifleissues. The cases of divorce are more in educated and afflu-ent families, because with education and affluence comes ar-rogance, as a result of which families fall apart. The societyalso falls apart because society is also a family," bhagwat wasquoted as saying. On the film front, sonam was last seen inThe Zoya Factor, which was a dud at the box-office. sonamKapoor made a confident debut with saawariya and elicitednotable reviews for it. she was nominated for a number offilm awards as a debutante and an actress. she won thestardust superstar of Tomorrow award. Her second movie,delhi 6 got her glowing reviews and established her as an ac-tress of calibre. 2010 has been the turning point for sonam,with two back to back hits I Hate Luv storys and Aisha. Thesehits propelled her into the league of superstars.

bigg boss 13 saw a num-ber of wild card entrants.Amongst them, shefaliJariwala made the maxi-mum impact. she wasstrong and aced most of thetasks. The lady also provedthat she can give it back in averbal battle as it happenedwith Asim riaz towards theend. In her personal life,shefali Jariwala is happilymarried to Parag Tyagi

since 2014. The couple weredating for close to four yearsprior to that. It seems theyare all ready to embraceparenthood pretty soon.recently, in a media inter-action, shefali said, "Fromthe moment I have under-stood the meaning of adop-tion which was when I was,10 or 11, I always wanted toadopt a child. It is difficult,especially when you can

have your own children. Thepressure from the society,from friends and family butParag and I spoke about itand we want to adopt a girlchild. The process is ongo-ing and pretty tedious.There is a lot of paperworkinvolved but we are hopefulit will be done soon." shefaliJariwala's tenure inside thehouse, especially towardsthe end was a much-talked-

about one. Asim riaz re-ferred to her husband,Parag Tyagi as nalla and heresponded with a stern mes-sage on video. Another topicof discussion was the factthat sidharth shukla, herex-boyfriend was also in-side the house. After an ini-tial rift, shefali andsidharth patched up and re-mained great friends till theend.

After a few misses, Aditya royKapur has finally hit the bull's eye withhis latest release, Malang, which hasturned out to be a box office. Apartfrom the performances and direction,

screen on fire once again with anotherMohit suri film, which is ek Villain 2.As per PinkVilla report, a source closeto the film said, "ek Villain 2 hasAditya and John Abraham going headto head against each other. The an-nouncement was made about the twomale leads but what people don't knowis that the film also has two femaleleads, opposite each hero. They are ac-tion-packed roles, which also lend tothe twists and turns in the plot. One ofthe actresses will be cast opposite Adiand Mohit has offered the part todisha." He further added, "Mohit waswaiting for the response to Malangand the way his film and his lead pairreceived appreciation for their on-screen camaraderie, he was sure thatdisha and Adi will suit each other inek Villain 2 as well. disha has alreadyheard the script and liked it as well.

but it now needs to be seen if shegives her final nod to the project."well, if this turns out to be true, it willbe a treat for all cinema lovers. ekVillain 2 is produced by bhushanKumar and ekta Kapoor under theirbanners T-series and balaji MotionPictures and is set to hit the screens onJanuary 8, 2021. The film will lockhorns with Ajay devgn, Alia bhatt,ram Charan and Jr nTr starrer rrrat the ticket windows. so, are you ex-cited to see Aditya and disha onceagain on the silver screen?

bollywood actress Taapsee Pannu is gearing upfor multiple projects in the coming months, andshe says that success has given her the confidenceto make unusual choices when it comes to signingfilms. "success has given me the confidence that Iam heading in the right direction and my judgmenton films are right. so, my choices of films are thegift of success. If I give inputs in the process of mak-ing a film and people listen to me, it is because Ihave managed to become a bankable actor.Filmmaking is a business and unless producershave the confidence that investing in my films willget a financial return, why would they put theirmoney," Taapsee told PTI. Taapsee recently wonthe best Actress (critics) award at a popular awardsgala along with bhumi Pednekar for her 2019diwali release saand Ki Aankh. Last year Taapseealso played pivotal roles in films like badla, GameOver, and Mission Mangal. starting her career withregular fare in the south Indian film industry, shemade her debut in bollywood with the daviddhawan slapstick Chashme baddoor in 2012, butwent on to become a face of content-driven cinemaafter her role in Aniruddha roy Chowdhury's 2016film, Pink. she also gained popularity with strongperformances in films like baby, naam shabana,Mulk and Manmarziyaan. How I stand for genderequality and women's right has nothing to do withsuccess, but everything to do with upbringing. Iwas never told that I am any less because I am a girl.I have a sister and, whether it is education, jobs orany other choice we made, in our house my parentsnever questioned it because we are girls. so thechoice of films that I make is a reflection of mymindset. My audience sees my belief in my choic-es," she said.
