Ranchi: Jharkhand official Prashant Kumar Layek was released by the Maoists on Friday evening after being kept in captivity for nearly six days.

Layek, a Block Development Officer in Jharkhand's Dalbhumgarh, is now back with his family ending a six-day ordeal at the hands of Maoists abductors.

CNN-IBN has learnt that the Jharkhand government gave in to arm-twisting by the Maoists to secure his release.

He was released at the Jharkhand Orissa border in the presence of a local media person. The police then took him to his family.

"They (Maoist) told me that their demands have been accepted and so they are releasing," said Layek.

But what really prompted the change of heart by the Maoists?

Jharkhand Home Secretary JB Tubid has denied there was any deal involved.

But sources have told CNN-IBN that the state government paid the Maoists Rs 30 lakh and promised to free 14 Maoist suspects from jail in exchange for the release of the BDO.

Though on record the government says the prisoners are being released on legal grounds.

"We are examining the cases of those who have been arrested," said Tubid.

It's time for Layek's family to celebrate, but the policy makers are certainly not rejoicing, especially seeing the way government succumbed to the Maoists' arm twisting methods.

It has also set a precedent, which will severely dent the tempo of anti-Maoist operations throughout the country.

But the man who heads the anti-Maoist operation in Jharkhand is more concerned about the happiness of his political masters

"The Chief Minister was very upset following the BDO's abduction. Now he is happy. It is very good news that the BDO has been released," said Jharkhand DGP Neyaz Ahmad.

The release of the prisoners will give some breathing space to Jharkhand Chief Minister Shibu Soren.

But the way the entire state administration capitulated will set back the anti-Maoist fight in the state by a long way.

Pre-marital sex: Rural youth more active

New Delhi: Rural youth have more pre-marital sex than their urban counterparts. The less educated are more likely to cast their vote and India's youth is ill-prepared for employment in a globalised economy. It is information like this that the government hopes will help it understand the `vulnerability' facing the nation's youth.

In a first of its kind study, researchers and policy makers have tracked key phases in a person's life, especially concerning health, marriage, civic participation, pre-marital sexual activity and work force participation. The consolidated data of the study -- conducted in six states -- will be launched by Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad.

Youth in India: Situation and Needs is the first `sub-nationally representative' study undertaken by the government to track key transitions experienced by young people in six states in India. The study was conducted in 2006-07, with the sample size ranging from 10,002 in Rajasthan to 7,996 in Tamil Nadu.

The objectives of this project are to provide evidence at the state level on the magnitude and patterns of sexual and reproductive practices in and outside of marriage. The exercise is aimed at giving more knowledge about decision-making practices and attitudes amongst the youth.

Lastly, helping the policy makers understand key factors underlying the sexual and reproductive health, knowledge, attitudes and life choices of young people thereby en- abling them to make policies with lesser margin for error.

The study has been undertaken by the International Institute for Population Sciences, Mumbai and the Population Council, New Delhi. The project aims to in- crease the government's investment in youth centric issues and was conducted in Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand and Maharashtra.

....If Britain was collaborating with Israel at any level, we better know it all, we better find out whether it was a person or a body within the Government or the intelligence, or just an ordinary sayan* in the Home Office or any other government office. If there was British collaboration, we better identify what it was exactly, who decided to serve Israeli murderous interests in our midst. We also better find out who in Britain decided to put British interests and British security in the Arab world at enormous risk.

WHY WE BELIEVE ONLY FALSEHOOD?
Brahminical mediacracy deceives us through Big Lies

Do you know the one single greatest achievement of the Brahminical mediacracy, the mind manipulating machine, the “national” toilet papers and their TV Twins, in the past 63 years since “independence”? Making the people believe the Big Lies. And also see that mass deception succeeds against the Stark Truth.

This is not an ordinary achievement. The mere 3% Brahminical rulers, and their bum-lickers and shit-eaters have invested billions and billions of rupees to achieve their goal.

Why propaganda triumphs truth? Why Big Lies win —but little lies fail?

Myth of the Mahatma: The biggest and the most dangerous lie is Gandhi is Mahatma. But the Father of India, Dr. Ambedkar, told us the Truth that Gandhi is our Enemy No.1. Gandhi is the one man who deceived Dalits, Tribals, OBCs, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs (85%). The whole country. But we did not believe our own Father but fell for the falsehood. We believed the Big Lie. See how powerful is the Big Lie.

Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar spoke the Truth. But we believed Gandhi’s Big Lie.

Butcher of Bengal: Our enemy oppressor said yet (latest) another Big Lie that Jyoti Basu, who died recently, was the “liberator of Bengal” but the Truth is that he was the “Butcher of Bengal”. The entire oppressed underdogs of Bengal, SC/ST/BCs and Muslims, know that they have been totally impoverished, reduced to skin and bones in the past 30 years. During this period the 3 tiny castes: Brahmin, Baidya and Kayasths (Bhadralok) became fatter and stronger — thanks to Jyoti Basu and the Communist Party he led as the Chief Minister. This is the Big Lie.

Double life of Jyoti Basu: Jyoti Basu was anything but a communist. This Kayasth autocrat lived like a prince and preached like a priest with not a trace of marxism in him — promoting his son into a multi-millionaire while mouthing marxist mantra. His double life is very well exposed by a noted Bengali woman writer (TOI Jan.24, 2010) saying he was essentially a “suave lady’s man”. He handed over Calcutta to Marwadis and ultimately made Calcutta a “dead city”. (p.27)

But who flocked to the funeral of the “Butcher of Bengal”? The very people, SC/ST/BCs and Muslims, whom he made into walking skeletons.

But by the time the facts becomes clear, the innocent masses, emotionally wedded to the beliefs planted by the big propaganda machine, find it extremely difficult to free themselves. See the power of the Big Lies.

This is called the belief system which the Brahmins promoted to keep the masses in ever lasting thrall.

It is true the ruling Brahminical class (15%) has a big mouth: TV and its toilet papers. But we have none. What can the feeble Dalit Voice do against the bombarding Brahminical big mouth?

That is how truth-tellers like Dr. Ambedkar and Dalit Voice go unheeded. It is more comfortable to praise and pamper the liars whom the truth-tellers expose.

Rahul’s “love” for Dalits: Look at the other Big Lie that Rahul Gandhi has fallen in love with Dalits and he is weeping and dying for Dalits. How systematically the Brahminical Big Lie is being built up. Look at the Big Lie that Indian economy is soaring, jumping, smiling and reaching sky-high. Look at the other Big Lie that a visit to Kashi Viswanath Temple and dip in the “Holy Ganga” will straight away take you to heavens. Look at the other Big Lie that Hinduism is the world’s only religion that believes in total non-violence. All bullshit. And we eat it.

The psychology of belief retention, even when those beliefs are downright false and totally wrong, is a pillar of social cohesion and stability. Belief retention prevents recognition of facts.

We never believed Dr. Ambedkar: How did the A.B. Vajpayee Govt. fall despite all its multi-million dollar “India smiling” publicity blitz?

Gandhi went about fooling those willing to be fooled. The only one person in the whole of India who exposed this “naked fakir” was Dr. Ambedkar. We have written four books on the Gujarati Bania fraudster. Even when the very Brahminists who carried him on their heads, reaped the richest harvest and finally they only shot him dead, we never believed the country’s greatest son but got fooled by the Big Lies of the Brahminists. Babasaheb had given us all the evidences of the frauds of the Gujarati Bania. But his truth-telling did not reach the people. The Brahminical toilet papers, radio and TV succeeded in mass hypnotism and our people fell flat.

Falsehood on Bombay terrorist attack: Even when clear evidences were available that the CST (Victoria Terminus)-Cama Hospital sector part of the Bombay terrorist act of 2008 was the handiwork of the Brahminists in the IB, people are not believing it. May be the Brahminical media blacked out the truth. But even highly educated people among us still do not know that this part of the attack was not done by the Pak terrorists but Brahminical terrorists to eliminate the police officer Karkare who had hauled up the Brahmin terrorists.

The crux of the problem is we the educated among the oppressed sections refuse to think, analyse and get at the Truth. We have lost the capacity to judge the relative merits of the arguments.

Role of Hindu religion: The principal cause of our people losing the power to think, judge and decide is the opium “Hindu religion” that has converted us into monkeys. Though Hinduism is not a religion but a hypnotic humbug, it destroys our very thinking capacity. Every person is born rational but Hinduism kills our brain power and makes us monkeys.

Today’s youth, even the non-Hindu Muslim, Christian, Sikh, have already become victims of this belief system — so effectively constructed by the cinema, media, TV and such other mass manipulating devices.

The Govt. of India has enormous money. It recently invited the Bangladesh PM and gave her millions of dollars cash gift. Enormous money is spent on the ruling class entertainment. But it has no money to remove poverty, illiteracy, disease, prostitution, child beggars and more than anything devastation in the agriculture sector.

What is happening in Australia: Honest intellectuals are laughed at. Frauds are paraded. Big Lies are believed but Sacred Truths are brushed aside. To that extent India is corrupted and corroded to the core.

This is because the Truth is never believed. That is how we are made to believe that Muslims are terrorists, Pakistan is a terrorist state, Kashmiris are separatists, Dalits have no merit, the Christian job is conversion. We are made to believe only in falsehood. That is how over 85% of the country is ruled by a mere 15% of the upper castes.

We have discussed with university professors, scientists at premier scientific institutions. We are sorry to confess that they don’t believe in facts. They believe only in fiction.

This country has lost its thinking capacity. That is how India became the laughing stock wherever Indians go. See what is happening in Australia.

62 years of achievement: The ability to follow the Truth and Justice wherever it may lead is almost non-existent.

This is our achievement at the end of 62 years of “independence”. Out of the 182 countries in the world we occupy the 134th place. Jai Ho..

This is the cause of India’s fall and fall — our country’s prestige and world leadership are forever damaged — doomed. Nay. India has become the laughing stock of the world. From the Third World, we have sunk to the Fourth World — thanks to 62 years of Brahminical misrule.

Otherwise how can a fellow who can’t win the lowliest of the low panchayat election can remain as the country’s PM for two terms? Is there any parallel to this in the whole world?

Commonwealth Games: You can test the truth of our statement in the coming Commonwealth Games in Delhi which will be a big flop. Take it from us. Already the country’s madcaps have started an agitation that beef, the most nutritious food, should not be served to sports persons at the Games. While beef is the costliest, the most delicious and the healthiest meat the world over, India’s micro-minority Brahminical rulers have banned it depriving the principal food of SC/ST/Muslim/Christians who form over 50% of the country’s population.

Look at our so-called Indian democracy where the people are not allowed to eat their own food. The rulers have “convinced” the victims that cow is our mother (gomata). We could have simply defied this ban but it does not occur to the victims. The slaves are enjoying their slavery— because of the Big Lie.

Hoax of Indian elections: Upper caste rulers boast about “India’s great democratic values”. The basis for their boast is the govt. regularly holds elections — parliament, state assemblies etc. But did it ever occur to us that elections alone do not constitute a democracy? What is the use of this democracy which does not assure the right to life – forget the right to food, clothing, shelter? Yes. The Indian bogus democracy has assured the millions of people the right to beg.

China has no regular elections like India but it has better democracy. That is how China has become the world’s No.2 power while India is sinking year after year.

But we the deprived destitutes believe the falsehood even as we are suffering. This is the power of the Big Lie.

India’s selfish Brahminical elite are able to bluff us through and through with their monopoly on the media which is mentally killing us before physically finishing us. Amen.

The Reserve Bank of India cannot target inflation as transmission of monetary policy is muted in the country, its governor said on Tuesday.While Rs. Four Lac Fifteen Crore Stimulus continues as Subsidies for the Masses have to be wiped out, Brahmin Economists and Media die to see Economic Ethnic Cleansing Agenda accomplished. Even die hard Mamat supporter Anand
Bazaar patrika highlights Crocodyle Tears of Ms Banerjee as she seems to Obstruct Economic Reforms. We NEVER know how far Mamata may go with the Genocide culture of UPA as we never doubt her Integrity!

"If monetary policy transmission is muted like in India as some interest rates are administered, we can't be targeting inflation," Duvvuri Subbarao told reporters on the sidelines of an event in Mumbai.

He added it was difficult for monetary policy to attack supply-side driven inflation.

UN climate panel chief Yvo de Boer Thursday announced that he is quitting!PM's special envoy on climate change Shyam Saran to quit!Student attempts self-immolation over Telangana issue!The way ordinary people are turning up in villages to demand Telangana clearly shows the emotional nature of the issue! It is calassical case of Ethnonationalism in Free Market Democracy US Version!Congress put telangana in its agenda in 2004 elections knowing that it cannot win without the support of trs.YSR did not utter a word against telangana till the elections were over in telangana 2009.Backwardness,betrayal by seemandhra politicians, cultural differences,colonialization of telangana,disrespect towards telangana culture have led to the demand of separate state.After a record sale of 200 tonnes of gold to the Reserve Bank of India, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is now planning to put another 191.3 tonnes on the gold market to raise funds for low-income countries.

Student protests over the Telangana issue in Hyderabad on Saturday took a tragic turn with one of them attempting self-immolation even as unprecedented security measures foiled plans by students to lay siege to the state assembly.

Rumours of his unhappiness and impending departure had been swirling around the Capital even before last December's Copenhagen summit but Shyam Saran finally decided to call it quits on Friday.

Days before foreign secretary level talks between India and Pakistan -- scheduled for February 25 -- home minister P Chidambaram said all pending issues related to the Mumbai terror attacks investigation would be raised by India.

Vishwanath Hariharan writes rightly:

"There was no Telengana Demand. "- Only a political illiterate will say this.As there were agitations in 1969,1996 , TRS  was formed in 2000.

:"Telengana itself is backward naturally."-Another Illiterate comment.

Telangana region Andhra Pradesh is situated in the central stretch of the eastern seaboard of the Indian Peninsula. The river Godavari is flowing on the North and the river Krishna is flowing on the South. 69% of Krishna River and 79% of Godavari River catchment area is in Telangana. Apart from the major rivers, there are other small rivers such as Manair, Bhima, Dindi, Kinnerasani, Manjeera, Munneru, Moosi, Penganga, Praanahita, and Peddavagu and Taliperu.

Forests: 45% of the forest area in the state is in Telangana region spread across five districts.

Coal: 20% of the coal deposits in the country is in Telangana region. Singareni Collaries excavate Coal and used it for industrial purposes and for thermal power stations. The coal supplied from this region, and the power produced is supplied to entire south india.

Limestones: There are limestone deposits in the region, which cater to cement factories in the region. Telangana also has got other resources like bauxite, and mica.

Telangana is the only region to have produced primeminester from SouthInida(full term).The NaiduGaru whom you are talking about will have be reborn again if at all he has to become the PrimeMinister.

The recommendations of Girglani commission(appointed by Govt) were not implemented till now.All the agreements meant to safe guard the interests of telangana are broken.


Official sources said Saran, who was first appointed as special envoy on the Indo-US nuclear deal and later on climate change, would leave the Prime Minister's office on Mar 14.

"Saran will be leaving the office on Mar 14," a PMO source said.

However, no reasons were given for his decision which comes more than a fortnight after another foreign service official, Shiv Shankar Menon, was appointed the National Security Adviser.

Both were Foreign Secretaries and had retired. While Menon retired late last year, Saran had retired three years before that.

While Menon was given the rank of Minister of State following his appointment as NSA, there were reports last week that Saran would also get a similar status.

United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Executive Secretary de Boer announced that he will leave the high-profile post July 1, a UNFCCC spokesperson said.

He will join the consultancy group KPMG as global adviser on climate and sustainability, plus work with a number of universities.

The high-profile UN climate chief said he was announcing his decision early so that UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has plenty of time to appoint a successor in a year crucial to global negotiations.

De Boer, who has led UNFCCC since September 2006, has worked through a period when global warming has been more in the news than ever before - partly because of the adverse effects of climate change that are showing already, but more because countries have still not agreed on a global compact to fight climate change, despite high-profile summits in Bali (2007) and Copenhagen (2009).

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who has succeeded in getting his government address the issue of fertiliser subsidy, is now struggling
