US should immediately stop provocative action in South China Sea: China

May 20, 2019 by Nasheman

As US military warships sailed near the disputed islands in the South China Sea, China hit back at the US asserting that it should “immediately stop provocative actions” as relations between the two nations continued to remain on the boil.

“We strongly urge the United States to immediately stop such provocative actions so as not to undermine Sino-US relations and regional peace and stability,” China’s foreign ministry spokesman said,adding,”China will continue to do what it needs to protect its national sovereignty and security and uphold the peace and stability of the South China Sea.” 

A US warship had sailed across the Scarborough Shoal claimed by Chinain the South China Sea on Sunday amid heightened tensions in the area. The US destroyer Preble had carried out the operation.

A fortnight ago the US military had sent two destroyers –  Preble and Chung Hoon – within 12 nautical miles of Gaven and Johnson Reefs in the Spratly Islands.

China claims all the islands in the South China Sea, however, it is also claimed by Vietnam, the Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia, Indonesia and Taiwan.

Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said the warship had entered waters near the shoal without China’s position and the Chinese navy had warned it to leave.

The United States is trying to disturb regional peace and stability by using the issue of freedom of navigation and flight, he added.

Earlier in the month, a US destroyer had conducted drills with a Japanese aircraft carrier along with two Indian naval ships and a Philippine patrol vessel in the waterways in the South China Sea.

Japan sent one of its two big aircraft carriers, the Izumo, while India deployed a destroyer, the INS Kolkata, and a tanker, the INS Shakti.

The US navy advocates freedom of navigation to freely move warships in the region, a move disputed by China. Beijing has built artificial islands and military installations in the South China Sea, including on the Spratlys.

Karnataka CM wants to impose restrictions on TV news channels

May 20, 2019 by Nasheman

HD Kumaraswamy has repeatedly clashed with the media over a number of issues since taking charge as the Chief Minister of the state.

First he threw tantrums multiple times and said he would boycott the media. But now Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy has gone a step ahead and on Sunday claimed that he is planning to bring in restrictions for the electronic media in the state. He made the claim while speaking at a programme in Mysuru. “For whose benefit are you misusing our (politicians) name and bringing news to people? I am discussing bringing in regulations for the media,” he stated.

He further accused television channels of spreading unconfirmed news to improve their TRP (target rating point) ratings. “Yesterday, I saw that there was a meeting between Sa Ra  Mahesh, GT Deve Gowda, Revanna and others. This news plays the entire day but in reality, we are in a comfortable position and did not have meetings like this,” he said, referring to suggestions made on news channels that the JD(S) was holding meetings to discuss the political situation in the state. “Do you need only us (politicians) to improve your TRP and channel?” the CM added.

He also said, “The media does not want to highlight people’s woes, but instead wants to focus on sensational false stories. Do you think the government will keep quiet?”

Kumaraswamy, who has not spoken to TV channels in the past month, vowed to continue to ignore television journalists. This is not the first time Kumaraswamy has vowed not to address the media. He has repeatedly clashed with the media over a number of issues since taking charge as the Chief Minister of the state.

Soon after taking charge, Kumaraswamy suggested that a separate room be allocated for journalists to interact with ministers at the Vidhana Soudha,  the state secretariat. This was interpreted by many in the media as a way of protecting ministers from being asked uncomfortable questions.

In July 2018, Kumaraswamy blamed the media for trying to divide the state by holding discussions on the demand for a separate North Karnataka state. He has repeatedly complained that his statements have been misrepresented by the media

In October 2018, in a press conference at the Vidhana Soudha, Kumaraswamy lost his cool when a journalist suggested that the Chief Minister has ordered load-shedding in Gulbarga.

Huawei’s use of Android restricted by Google

May 20, 2019 by Nasheman

San Francisco, May 20 : Google has barred the world’s second biggest smartphone maker, Huawei, from some updates to the Android operating system, dealing a blow to the Chinese company.

New designs of Huawei smartphones are set to lose access to some Google apps.

The move comes after the Trump administration added Huawei to a list of companies that American firms cannot trade with unless they have a licence, said a BBC News report on Monday.

Google said it was “complying with the order and reviewing the implications”.

Huawei said it would continue to provide security updates and after sales services to all existing Huawei and Honor smartphone and tablet products covering those have been sold or still in stock globally.

“We will continue to build a safe and sustainable software ecosystem, in order to provide the best experience for all users globally,” it added.

Existing Huawei smartphone users will be able to update apps and push through security fixes, as well as update Google Play services.

But when Google launches the next version of Android later this year, it may not be available on Huawei devices.

Future Huawei devices may no longer have apps such as YouTube and Maps.

Huawei can still use the version of the Android operating system available through an open source licence.

Ben Wood, from the CCS Insight consultancy, said the move by Google would have “big implications for Huawei’s consumer business”.

Last Wednesday, the Trump administration added Huawei to its “entity list”, which bans the company from acquiring technology from US firms without government approval.

In his first comments since the firm was placed on the list, Huawei chief executive Ren Zhengfei told Japanese media on Saturday: “We have already been preparing for this.”

He said the firm, which buys about $67bn (?52.6bn) worth of components each year according to the Nikkei business newspaper, would push ahead with developing its own parts.

Huawei faces a growing backlash from Western countries, led by the US, over possible risks posed by using its products in next-generation 5G mobile networks.

Several countries have raised concerns that Huawei equipment could be used by China for surveillance, allegations the company has vehemently denied.

Huawei has said its work does not pose any threats and that it is independent from the Chinese government.
However, some countries have blocked telecoms companies from using Huawei products in 5G mobile networks.

So far the UK has held back from any formal ban.

“Huawei has been working hard on developing its own App Gallery and other software assets in a similar manner to its work on chipset solutions. There is little doubt these efforts are part of its desire to control its own destiny,” said Mr Wood.

In the short term, this could be very damaging for Huawei in the West.

TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu likely to call on Mamata

May 20, 2019 by Nasheman


Kolkata, May 20 : A day after the 7th-phase Lok Sabha poll ended on Sunday, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu is expected to call on his West Bengal counterpart Mamata Banerjee here on Monday, party sources indicated.
Ridiculing Sunday’s exit poll predictions in which almost all the pollsters indicated Prime Minister Naredra Modi-led NDA government coming to power for second successive time, Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee said it was all gossip and aimed at diverting attention to replace the
EVMs.
” I don’t trust Exit Poll gossip. The game plan is to manipulate or replace thousands of EVMs through this gossip. I appeal to all Opposition parties to be united, strong and bold. We will fight this
battle together,” she said adding, ” Wait for May 23, the day when the results of 544 Lok sabha seats results will be out. “

Responding to this her TDP counterpart and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is expected to fly here this afternoon and meet Ms Banerjee at her Kalighat residence in south Kolkata.

Telugu Desam Party chief N Chandrababu Naidu has been visiting across the country meeting most of the opposition leaders, including Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gndhi.
Mr Naidu, who also held joint campaign with Ms Banerjee, has been playing the role of a facilitator to bring all non-NDA opposition parties together and cobble a coalition if need arises in case of a
hung verdict.
After a meeting with the Congress president and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar on Friday, he had flown to Lucknow.

Election 2019: Exit Polls Stall Mayawati-Gandhis Talks? “No Delhi Meet,” Her Party Says

May 20, 2019 by Nasheman

After voting ended in a massive month-and-a-half long election on Sunday, several exit polls on television channels projected an NDA landslide and another term for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Election 2019: Exit Polls Stall Mayawati-Gandhis Talks? 'No Delhi Meet,' Her Party Says

The exit polls suggest that Mayawati and Akhilesh Yadav may take around 30 seats in 80-seat UP.
NEW DELHI: 

Mayawati will not come to Delhi today for any meetings with opposition leaders, her Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) has said, contradicting reports about her meeting with Congress president Rahul Gandhi and his mother Sonia Gandhi, which was seen as a significant step in opposition consolidation moves.

“Mayawati ji has no programme or meetings scheduled in Delhi today, she will be in Lucknow,” Mayawati’s top aide Satish Chandra Mishra told news agency ANI on Monday, a day after most exit polls predicted that the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would return with a clear majority.

Reports had suggested that Mayawati was to meet the Gandhis ahead of the national election result on Thursday, May 23. The meeting, said the reports, had been arranged at the instance of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, who has been the go-between. Mr Naidu met with Mayawati in Lucknow and also held discussions with Rahul Gandhi twice. The Telugu Desam Party leader met with Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi on Sunday and is expected to talk to Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who had yesterday dismissed “exit poll gossip”.

If he does manage to get Mayawati to talk to the Gandhis, it will be quite a feat. The BSP chief spent much of her national election campaign targeting the Congress in the same breath as the BJP, unable to get past the huge disagreement over seat sharing for December state polls.

After voting ended in a massive month-and-a-half long election on Sunday, several exit polls on television channels projected an NDA landslide and another term for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

While the BJP and its allies are predicted to win 303 seats in the 543-member Lok Sabha, the Congress and its allies have been given 122 and parties that are not with any of the two combines so far are said to be looking at a score of 117.

The exit polls also suggest that Mayawati and her rival-turned-alliance partner Akhilesh Yadav may take around 30 seats in 80-seat Uttar Pradesh, significantly reducing the BJP’s tally from its 2014 sweep of 71; the ruling party may win enough seats in Bengal and Odisha to offset the loss.

Sources say Mayawati may be waiting for the actual results before her next move. For now, exit poll predictions present a grim scenario for the opposition bloc.

May 23, day of counting would be Good Bye for Narendra Modi: Rahul

May 16, 2019 by Nasheman


Bikram, May 16 : Congress president Rahul Gandhi today predicted that May 23, the day of counting would be ‘Good Bye’ for Prime Minister Narendra Modi as people had already rejected him in six phases of Lok Sabha elections and they would also do so in the final phase on May 19.

Addressing an election meeting here in favour of Misa Bharti, RJD candidate from Patliputra, Mr Gandhi said that Narendra Modi government was sure to be ousted from power and only formality remains to be completed with the declaration of the election result. He said that the crushing defeat of BJP and its allies in the elections was inevitable as people had made up their mind to ‘say goodbye’ to the government.

Mr Gandhi said that Congress had prepared an action plan to ameliorate the condition of poor people and farmers if his party was voted to power. A sum of Rs 72,000 would be deposited to the individual bank account of 25 crores most poor people every year while one lakh youths would be given employment at Panchayat level in next one year, he added.

Congress president said that his party if voted to power would ensure farmers were not put behind bars in the event of their failure to repay loans.

Mr Gandhi said Prime Minister Narendra Modi was maintaining stoic silence on corruption in Rafael deal and was not explaining why Anil Ambani`s company was selected for the deal and why former defence minister Manohar Parrikar had said that he was not aware of the deal.

Mr Gandhi continued to taunt on honesty being claimed by Prime Minister Mr Modi and provoked people to raise the slogan ‘chowkidar chor hain’, as he has been doing in all his public meetings.

Besides Misa Bharti, daughter of RJD chief Lalu Prasad and her two brothers- Leader of Opposition in Bihar Assembly Tejaswi Yadav, MLA Tej Pratap Yadav, senior RJD leader and former union minister Jai Prakash Narayan Yadav, senior Congress leader and state election campaign committee chairman Akhilesh Prasad Singh, AICC In charge for Bihar affairs Shaktisinh Gohil and other dignitaries were present on the occasion.
