During talks between External Affairs Minister S M Krishna, who is here on a three-day visit, and Premier Madhav Kumar Nepal yesterday, India agreed to supply an additional 30 MW of power, the Prime Minister's Foreign Affairs Adviser Rajan Bhattarai said.

Nepal currently imports 20 MW of electricity from India from the Tanakpur barrage situated in the Indo-Nepal border.

Besides the additional 30 MW of power which India has agreed to provide, Nepal has requested for another 30 MW of electricity to deal with the power deficit, Bhattarai said.

At present, Kathmandu and other major cities of the country are going through an eight-hour electricity cut daily due to the low level of water in the reservoirs of the major power stations of Nepal.

Body scanners okay for airport, not for Parliament?

Posted by blog master Monday, January 4, 2010

NEW DELHI: Even as security agencies focus on the need for full-body scanners, in the backdrop of the attempt by a Nigerian national to blow up a
Detroit-bound plane, the proposal to acquire the equipment for Parliament security is fast coming unstuck.

In fact, after more than a year of gathering dust in Lok Sabha Speaker’s office, the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) on security, has, as sources revealed, now come up with a fresh proposal to acquire not just full-body scanners but also baggage and vehicle scanners keeping in mind the threat to India’s most heavily-guarded building. The proposal to acquire body scanners, which have never been used in India, was made for the first time by the previous JPC in March 2008 but, according to highly placed sources, it got stuck in then Speaker Somnath Chatterjee’s office. The price of these equipment, each of which can cost several crores, was said to be one of the reasons.

Only a handful of countries in the world like the US, UK, France and Israel manufacture such scanners and because it wouldn’t have been possible for the manufacturers to bring the equipment to India for a demo, it was decided that a committee be formed to go abroad for the demonstrations. An inter-departmental technical committee, comprising members of all important security agencies, was formed for the purpose but in the absence of the final go-ahead the committee failed to go abroad even once.

‘‘Right now there is no equipment to detect explosive substances which can be combined with chemicals to cause explosion. Manual frisking remains of paramount importance but there is always a chance of human error in it,’’ said a source.

Snowstorm blasts South Korea

SEOUL, Jan. 4 (Xinhua) -- On the first workday of the New Year on Monday, South Koreans were greeted by heavy snowfall, which was bringing the city to a near standstill.

    The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) said 25.8 cm of snow had blanketed the Seoul metropolitan area Monday morning, the most amount of snow South Korea has seen since KMA first kept record in 1937, causing major disruptions in traffic and morning commutes.

    Local media reported that a heavy snow warning was issued by the government as the plunging snowfall blocked entry to 13 major highways, and 19 principal roads, as well as 14 of the busiest streets in downtown Seoul.

    The city officials also closed all mountain roads leading to the downtown area as Seoul's urban highways and riverside expressways were already gridlocked with commuting vehicles.

    The unexpected snowstorm hit the city within a five-hour window in the early hours of Monday and traffic congestion forced morning commuters to abruptly switch to subways, buses, and public transportations that subsequently brought further chaos to the surging crowd.

    However, buses were sluggish too, driving at a half-speed on icy roads, and commuters had to deal with a 30 minute to 1 hour delay in most areas.

    For example, a bus drive that usually takes 1 hour from Bundang,a southern city of Seoul, to Yeoido, a large island located in Seoul, took about 4 hours Monday.

    Subways experienced heavy delays as well, due to electrical malfunctions caused by snow and icy conditions, as services for the One train and Two train both were suspended for nearly 20 minutes.

    "It usually takes less than half an hour to get to Gwanghwa Moon from Gangnam by subway but today it took me more than an hour," Oh Ryun-kwon told Xinhua.

    Oh, who works in the Gwanghwa Moon business district of Seoul, was particularly disgruntled at the city's response to the snowstorm as he described the morning commute scene as "chaotic."

    In fact, the city deployed 3,500 civil service personnel and 2,300 tons of calcium chloride as part of its snow removal work, but the snow was unexpectedly more than forecast and the record-setting snow is still falling unremittingly with heavier falls forecast until Monday night, making it hard to clean up.

    The snowstorm was far-exceeding the initial forecast reported by the KMA Sunday night, which said approximately 2 cm to 7 cm of snow was expected on Monday.

    "Snowfall began at 5 a.m. in Seoul and as much as 7.5 cm was recorded in just two hours. Snow is expected to stop falling Monday evening," a KMA official was quoted as saying by news agency Yonhap.

    In an attempt to prevent further traffic delays, city officials announced on Monday that they will extend the subway operating hours and speed up train intervals during Tuesday's morning rush-hours.

    The city of Incheon, on the other hand, has canceled all eleven ships scheduled to depart their port Monday as well, with flights from Gimpo Airport, the country's second largest airport located in the far western end of Seoul, canceling all flights for the first time since 2001.

    In the meantime, the temperature in Seoul dropped furthermore Monday morning, causing most roads to freeze and become icy, exacerbating the traffic problem.

    "With temperature plunging to minus 6.9 degrees Celsius early Monday morning, most roads in Seoul and neighboring areas are expected to become icy," said the weather official as he asked for special driver's discretion, according to Yonhap.

    The country's weather office forecast an additional 2 cm of snow in the Seoul metropolitan area, as one of the officials described it as "the most in the last 100 years."

No flip-flop on Telangana, says Chidambaram

Posted by blog master Thursday, December 31, 2009

Flag of Telangana Rashtra Samithi. As per the ...Image via Wikipedia
New Delhi: Asserting that the government had done "no flip-flop" over separate statehood to Telangana, Union Home Minister P Chidambaram on Thursday said the January 5 meeting of eight political parties from Andhra Pradesh had been called to devise a "mechanism" and "lay a road map" on resolving the controversial issue.

"There is no flip-flop on part of the government over Telangana," said Chidambaram.

He said the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government in its common minimum programme had said that a separate Telangana state will be carved out from Andhra Pradesh "at an appropriate time" after due consultations and consensus.

Major political parties in Andhra Pradesh, he said, contested the 2009 Assembly elections on manifestos that "in one manner or other declared support for the formation of a separate state of Telangana".

Referring to two statements he had made on December 9 and on December 23 on the issue, the home minister said, "The central government simply responded to the situation in Andhra Pradesh."

"On December 9, it was announced that an appropriate resolution would be moved in the state assembly. I would like to highlight key words in the statement, they are 'process', 'appropriate resolution' and 'moved'. In the background of the minutes of the all party meeting, I would like to ask what was wrong with that statement," he queried.

And on December 23, after MPs and legislators from the state appeared divided over the issue, the government stressed the need to hold consultations with all political parties on the issue following a fortnight of protests in Andhra Pradesh for and against the separate state.

"We simply responded to the wishes of the people of Andhra Pradesh. I hope you don't call the January 5 meeting a flip-flop," Chidambaram added.

"The January 5 meeting is the first step in consultations. We have called the recognised parties in the state to devise a mechanism and lay a roadmap on the issue," he said.

Chidambaram also pointed out that other student groups and interested parties would also be consulted at a later stage.
