Maldives Is Latest Flashpoint In India Vs China Rivalry: Foreign Media

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <img alt="Maldives Is Latest Flashpoint In India Vs China Rivalry: Foreign Media" src="https://i.ndtvimg.com/i/2018-02/maldives-afp_650x400_71517924418.jpg" /><br /> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">A </span>power struggle in the Maldives, a tiny Indian Ocean nation known for scenic luxury resorts and crystal-clear blue water, is taking center stage in a wider battle for regional influence between India and China. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> On Monday, President Abdulla Yameen declared a state of emergency after the Supreme Court ordered him to free political prisoners and opposition politicians he's thrown in jail. Security forces then stormed the court and arrested two judges, as well as a former leader. The remaining judges later annulled the previous ruling, the Associated Press reported Wednesday. <br /> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The political drama has sparked concern in India, which said last week in an unusually strong statement that it's "imperative" for the government to obey the Supreme Court. China, which signed a free trade agreement with the Maldives last year, said Tuesday the country of roughly 400,000 people has "the wisdom and capabilities to cope with the current situation independently." India, which views China as its main geopolitical foe in Asia, has been more assertive under Prime Minister Narendra Modi in pushing to maintain geo-strategic supremacy in the Indian Ocean, with backing from the U.S. and Japan. China, meanwhile, has expanded its influence by building ports in Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Djibouti, a small African nation that is also home to its first overseas military base. <br /> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>China Outreach</b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> "As India tries to establish itself as the preeminent power in the Indian Ocean region, the Maldives have become increasingly important," said Constantino Xavier, a fellow at Carnegie India in New Delhi. Yameen has "definitely accelerated his outreach to China, to fend off pressure from the west and also reduce leverage from India." The Maldives has become politically volatile in recent years.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Yameen, who has courted Chinese and Saudi investment since coming to power in an election in 2013, has been criticized by the State Department for jailing opposition politicians and eroding human rights protections. Before the decision to annul the court ruling, Mohamed Nasheed, an exiled former Maldives president and opposition leader, had asked India's armed forces to back an envoy that would help enforce the order, free political prisoners and secure the safety of judges. The U.S. has condemned the state of emergency. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <i style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;">(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by Trend Today and is published from a syndicated feed.)</i></div> </div>

Platform fixing in Bihar: It takes just Rs 100 bribe to change tracks of running trains at last minute

Other fixings are not considered that significant. But a different kind of fixing is going on in Bihar - platform fixing. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> It may sound bizarre but it just requires Rs 100 to change a platform of an incoming train at railway stations in Bihar. Being tipped as platform fixing, the East Central Railways (ECR) is in possession of a few audio recordings, which suggest that the vendors at the railway station in Bihar were bribing railway officials to get the platform changed for any incoming train in order to increase their sale.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The matter was reported to the Railways some days back when an audio recording of railway staffers and vendors at the Muzaffarpur railway station went viral. The audio recording had detailed communications of rail officials at Muzaffarpur station ready to change the platform of any incoming train for Rs 100. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> </div>

Maldives crisis: Military on standby, but no knee jerk reaction from India

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <img alt="Maldives crisis: Military on standby, but no knee jerk reaction from India" height="480" src="https://www.oneindia.com/img/2018/02/indian-army-1517995401.jpg" width="640" /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> As Maldives plunged into crisis, all eyes would be on the Indian response. While experts are of the opinion that India needs to assert itself in the region, there are various aspects that would be taken into consideration. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /> If an operation becomes absolutely necessary, it would be undertaken and in all probability, the Southern Command would undertake the same. The top priority for India would be to ensure that its citizens are safe. If the problem propels out of control, then the forces would carry out the evacuation of the Indian tourists who visit Maldives in large numbers. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Officials say that currently there is no threat to any of our military establishments as well the people from India. The slugfest is political and it has not affected the people. As part of the defence cooperation programme, India has some defence personnel in Maldives.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> India's warships, choppers and aircrafts patrol the economic zone. India's intervention into the crisis would be restricted only to protecting its interests. The military equipment and the people if faced with any danger would evoke a response from India. Any sort of intervention would be done without confrontation with the people of Maldives. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> (Trend Today News)</div> </div>

‘It's obvious' opposition doesn't want any organised discussion: Jaitley on RS disruptions

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <img alt="Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley " src="https://www.oneindia.com/img/2018/02/xarun-jaitley3-1517470994.jpg.pagespeed.ic.NKWTZx2xKM.jpg" /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Tuesday came down heavily on the opposition over the disruptions in the Rajya Sabha proceedings and said that opposition leaders do not want an organised discussion. Asserting that there is a "huge opportunity for discussing all political and economic issues in Parliament", Jaitley fumed at the way the Congress-led opposition is resorting to disrupting proceedings of the House. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> "There is a huge opportunity for discussing all political & economic issues this week in the parliament. Instead, rules are to be violated, every day an effort has to be made to get the House adjourned, then it is obvious that they don't want an organised discussion," he told media.<br /> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> What Opposition parties have done in Rajya Sabha today led by Congress party is absolutely unprecedented. Congress and some other parties have tried to manufacture an issue when none existed," he added. The opposition on Tuesday boycotted the Rajya Sabha in the post-lunch session, complaining that their voice was being muzzled outside as well as inside Parliament. </div> </div>
