Race for power begins
in Navi Mumbai
By Dinesh Kamath
NAVI MUMBAI: In
Navi Mumbai the
members of Congress,
Nationalist Congress
Party, Bharatiya Janata Party and Shiv Sena
are trying all possible
tactics to emerge as
winners in the forthcoming Navi Mumbai
Municipal Corporation
elections. Congress and
NCP have lot of common aspects between
them. Same is the case
with BJP and Shiv
Sena. So even when
there are differences
between Congress and
NCP members, and so
also between BJP and
Shiv Sena members,
but somehow Congress
and NCP tend to unite
when it comes to giving
a fight to BJP and Sena
combined. History is
Bhagat for Congress
and Naiks for NCP. All
these local leaders are
trying to come up with
an equation that would
suit each one best. With
election approaching
closer and closer there
have asked these local
leaders to hurry up and
come up with positive
solutions and adjustments that could benefit their respective parties.
In the meantime,
the witness to such happenings. Congress and
NCP can never be good
bedfellows with BJP
and Sena. That’s a kind
of natural characteristic these parties possess.
In Navi Mumbai,
we have Vithal More
playing the spokesman
for Sena, Manda Mhatre for BJP, Dashrath
are hectic efforts being
made by these leaders
to arrive at a right
equation. They are
studying the statistics
of the past elections in
the city and accordingly drawing conclusions
which could benefit
them in the forthcoming NMMC elections.
The high commands
of all these four parties
the candidates who are
sure of being given the
tickets to contest the
elections have already
started trying all kinds
of tricks to woo the people of Navi Mumbai.
The old system of door
to door campaigning is
proving to be profitable
for many of these canCont. on pg. 7
BEST goes for
a fare hike
By Chandrashekhar Hendve
The Brihanmumbai
Electric and Supply
Transport (BEST) has
gone for a second fare
hike, which is applicable from April 1. The
minimum fare will
now be Rs.8 per km and
for children Rs.4. After
the first hike in February, the
BEST had
lost a good
chunk of
business.
The second fare
hike comes
after the
BEST running into losses. The
officials claim that even
after the fare increase,
the BEST would continue to run into losses.
BEST fares for normal and air-conditioned
buses would be hiked by
Re 1 and Rs 5, respectively, from 1 April
2015, the second such
increase in two months.
Regular bus will cost
minimum Rs 8, while
AC Bus will cost minimum Rs 30. Bus passes for students will also
cost more. The monthly concession pass for
Std X students will cost
Rs 200, the quarterly
Rs 550 and the half
yearly Rs 1,000. For the
same validity periods,
Std XII students will
have to pay Rs 500,
1,400 and Rs 2,500.
The regular bus
commuters are affected
and are not welcoming
the fare hike. On the
other side there is some
relief to the Navi Mumbaikar since there is no
any proposal of fare
hike of Navi Mumbai
Municipal Transport
(NMMT) Buses, informed NMMT officers.
Hanuman Jayanti celebrated
Hanuman Jayanti was celebrated at Hanuman Mandir,
Juhugaon as per the Hindu tradition by doing Havan
and pooja early in the morning. It was 8th year of celebrating of Hanuman Jayanti by Hanuman Mandir Trust.
“It is very prestigious year as Lord Krishna is also the 8th
incarnation of God,” said Prisident Lalchand Bhoir. May
Hanuman give everyone happiness, prosperity and power
to overcome their problems, he added. (By Chandrashekhar Hendve)
Sir, he is a honest politician. See the state
to which his honesty
has reduced him.

Filing of nominations yet to catch up Man trying to circulate fake notes held
1,997 nomination forms issued;
31 nominations filed; Civic election
By Vijay Bhor
CBD-BELAPUR:
Though the last date
for filing nominations
for the municipal election is only three days
away, few forms have
actually been filed. One
of the reasons is the
ongoing alliance talks
between the Shiv Sena
and BJP. Neither party has distributed any
tickets to the aspirants. Though there are
several aspirants for
each Ward, the parties
have been delaying the
announcement of candidates fearing rebellion.
NCP and Congress,
on the other hand, are
not shackled by any
such calculations. The
delay in the release of
list of nominees is
therefore baffling.
Till Saturday, a total of 31 nominations
have been received.
Sunday being a holiday, forms will neither
be issued nor received.
That leaves only two
days, Monday and
Tuesday. On Monday,
nomination papers will
be issued and received
between 11.00 am and
3.00 pm. On Tuesday,
the last day for filing
nominations, forms
will be issued till 2.00
pm. Filing of nominations will however be
open till 3.00 pm. Ten
Returning Officers
have been put on the
job and they are expected to remain busy
till the scrutiny is over
on 8 April, 2015.
Robber snatches bag of cash
from a Scooter riding bizman
handle. On his way he
stopped near Ramniiklal

salesman, leaving the
bag behind. During this
time, a thief took opportunity of the situation
and picked the bag and
fled. As Vira came back,
he discovered his bag
gone and therefore
lodged a complaint
against the robber with
Panvel Police.

CIDCO accused of malpractices
Land due for allotment under 12.5% scheme
wrongly leased to someone else
By Vikram Gaikwad
CBD-BELAPUR: A
legal heir to a PAP
landholder whose land
was acquired by
CIDCO has accused
the Corporation of
wrongly leasing the
plot to some one else.
Plot Nos 2 and 2A
in Sector-36 Nerul
together admeasuring
1,481.50 square
meters and earmarked for allotment
under the 12.5%
scheme were wrongly
and fraudulently
leased to some one
else. The land origi-
nally belonged to
Balkrishna Dharma
Tandel before it was
acquired by CIDCO.
Plot Nos 2 and 2A in
Sector-36 Nerul were
earmarked for allotment as compensation
under the 12.5% PAP
scheme. Before it
could be allotted, the
owner Balkrishna
Dharma Tandel died
leaving his only
daughter Radhabai
Ramchandra Patil as
the legal heir. Instead
of allotting it to her,
CIDCO is reported to
have leased them to
one Sanjiv Divekar by
entering into a
tripartite agreement
with him, Radhabai
has alleged.
Radhabai suspects
that CIDCO officials
have conspired with
the lessee for the
purpose. She has
demanded that
CIDCO institute a
proper inquiry into
the matter, cancel the
lease deed and hand
over the plot to her.
She has also demanded that the guilty
official also be identified and punished.

start of the match) as
they conceded two soft

through the first half.
Lajong’s Glen capitalized on the rebound
from inside the box after his team mate Robin Gurung’s shot was
kept in play by Mumbai
FC custodian Nidhin
Lal. Four minutes later, Lajong doubled their
lead through Penn Orji’s deflected effort whose
first time shot took a
touch of Mumbai’s

Hanuman Jayanti Celebrated In City Despite Lunar Eclipse
Text and Photos
by Ashok Dhamija
NAVI MUMBAI: Hanuman Jayanti was celebrated on Saturday 4th
April, 2015 in the city

birth of Hanuman, the
Vanara god (a reincarnation of Lord Shiva)
with devotional fervor
and devotion. On this
day, devotees observed
fast and flocked too various Hanuman temples to worship him.
Various spiritual discourses were organized
since the crack of
dawn.
“Hanuman Jayanti is an important festival of Hindus. Hanuman is the symbol of
strength and energy.
According to the Hindu calender, Hanuman Jayanti falls on
the full moon day of
Chaitra Bhajan, havan, jaap and snaan

may take up to keep
negative vibes away,”

the celebration was
smaller than usual in
the wake of the eclipse”.
“With the year ’s
first lunar eclipse, falling on Saturday, it has
upset Lord Hanuman’s
birthday plans. As a
result, we had to cancel the annual Maha

India should guard against China’s
imperial behaviour
Sri Lanka, President Maithripala Sirisena, suspended China’s $1.4-billion Colombo port project. Foreign Minister Mangala Samaraweera announced that Chinese nuclear submarines
would no longer be welcome to dock in Sri Lankan harbours,
even as Sri Lanka ups maritime cooperation with India. Sri
Lanka also signed its first nuclear agreement with India, albeit
one that envisages nuclear safety operations and not energy
generation at present. All these moves, capped by Indian Prime
Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Sri Lanka, sent out a clear
message of India’s importance in Sri Lanka’s external relations.
Each of these is an acknowledgment that India is now the ‘elephant in the room’ when China engages one of its closest neighbours.
We should not read too much in the relationship between Sri
Lanka and China. In any case the tilt towards China made by
the previous regime is being corrected. India and Sri Lanka
being neighbors, there is bound to be some friction. A perceived
hegemony of India will die a natural death if ignored by us.
Steps by Sri Lanka like preventing Chinese submarines from
docking in their harbours and re-examining certain Chinese
projects are positive. However India should be wary of the suggested trilateral arrangement. Past events like the 1962 war
and recent infiltrations such as the Daulat Beg Oldi Incident
and the infiltration coinciding with President Xi Jinping’s September 2014 visit to India are a grave reminder that India needs
to maintain caution when it comes to China.
It is not for Sri Lanka but for China to understand that India is an emerging power and its presence cannot be ignored.
Stalling of certain China backed projects and giving a green
signal to India’s is sure step in that direction. PM Modi’s foreign policy shows signs of taking India slowly to an international platform at par with China. It may sound a little far fetched
but you never know.
As a rising power India must watch its step before taking
any kind of decision. We all know that China is proving to be
imperialistic power in many instances especially where it comes
to India.
India being an emerging power in the world has extended
helping hand to many and one of them is Lankan state. Indian
Ocean has become a major sea route trade for achieving growth
and development. It must go to the credit of PM Modi’s diplomatic skills that Sri Lanka has taken at least some steps to
restrict the influence of Chinese’s money power in our Southern neighbourhood, which was going to pose serious problems
not only for India but for Sri Lanka as well. The new President
of SL has also displayed great courage and sensitivity to India’s
concerns. That should certainly help in improving strained relations between India and SL during Rajpakshe’s presidency. For
India, the bonus will come in the form of similar steps from
other South Asian countries, notably Burma and Bangladesh,
who are being targetted by China to spread its wings to such an
extent that it may create problems for India. All said and done,
India’s new diplomatic approach with South Asian nations vis-avis China is paying dividends. This will have far reaching consequences in days and years to come when India attains greater
economic status and plays more important role.
The Chinese do not have any benign intentions when they
come to India’s neighbourhood and dangle their fat cheque books
to woo cash-starved small countries. Their strategy is to deny
the Indian navy its legitimate role in the Indian Ocean. India
has no option but to counter the Chinese moves. China is displaying a typical imperial behavior and India would be right to
keep its guard up.

Police protection for NMMT Problems relating to errant
buses now
autos continue to persist
By Dinesh Kamath
NAVI MUMBAI: Navi Mumbai Municipal Transport has started a new
bus route from Khandeshwar railway
station to Vichumbe bridge, New
Panvel. The special feature of this bus
service is that it has police protection.
The reason for having police protection was the two attacks
on the bus crew that
happened ever since the
services started.
The other new bus
services which are enjoying police protection
are the ones from Mansarovar and Khandeshwar railway station.
NMMT has done yeomen service to
the public by introducing bus service
from Mansarovar to police headquarters in Kalamboli, further extending
it to Roadpalli.
The auto operators, in order to
give a boost to their business, pressurize the NMMT bus crews to cause
problems to the commuters so that

losers are the commuters who are
troubled by both NMMT bus services as well as the menace caused by
auto operators. There were certain
buses which would take off every 10
minutes initially but
the moment the auto
operators managed to
apply pressure on the
NMMT bus crews, the
buses stopped taking off
every 10 minutes and
began providing a staggered service thus forcing the commuters to
be at the mercy of auto operators.

exact causes are still
being researched upon.
A few studies suggest
that lack of proper oxygen supply to the fetus’s developing brain
may also trigger the
condition. The symptoms may surface right
during infancy or early childhood. The condition generally establishes itself once a child
enters his/her second

thereafter.
Characteristics : One
of the most important
things to keep in mind
is the fact that every
autistic person differs

Sudhakar Lad’s ‘Shivaji and Raigad’
photo exhibition gets good response
By Nikita Deshpande
PANVEL: ‘A photograph expresses what a
thousand words cannot’, this expression
was proved in an exceptional way by the exhibition of awe inspiring
photos of Raigad fort
taken by photo journalist Sudhakar Lad on
Saturday.
PWP party leader
Vivek Patil and various
members of the Riagad
Zillah Parishad were
present on the occasion
as special guests. Pictures of Shivaji Mahraj’s Samadhi, temples,
Court ministers’ quarters, Vagh Darwaza,
Palkhi Darwaza etc,
captured in their raw
beauty were showcased
on the occasion. Speaking on the event, Chief
Guest Vivek Patil spoke
of the supreme example
of governance set by
Shivaji Maharaj’s administration and how
we should try to follow
his principles. He
thanked Lad for his efforts in bringing the
subject of Raigad fort
in limelight, to depict
the lack of maintenance
efforts or funds from
the State and the Archeological Survey of India.
He cautioned that “if
proper measures for its
upkeep were not taken,
the fort would lose its
remaining glory as
well”. Moreover, the ex-
hibition proved to be an
educational medium for
students in surrounding local schools to get
knowledge about the
Maharashtra’s mighty
warriors past and the
land’s glorious history.

The Trust which helps the
poor and needy
By Chandrashekhar Hendve
NAVI MUMBAI: Manmohan Agarwal and his family opened a Trust
‘Om Namah Shivay’ to help the poor
and the needy seven years back. The
family is based in Navi Mumbai and
has adequate income for their survival and to bear their expenses.
Every year they have been approaching various slums and villages where
tribals reside and contribute ration,
books and stationery for school children, medicines for medical treatment, clothes and other requirements frequently.
Recently, the family planned a visit
to Taluk wadi, a small tribal area at
Karjat to donate one month ration and
food grains to 70-80 families residing
in the village. This social cause gives
the family a sense of relief and satisfaction that they are able to serve a
few families with food which is the
minimal requirement for survival.
They do this on a regular basis
during festivals, occasions or if there
is any happiness in the family. Serving the poor to bring up the underprivileged and feeding them is the
way of celebrating in their family and
they thank God for this and promise
to continue in future till the time they
can afford.

Trust, Navi Mumbai, consists of president Manmohan Agarwal, Raju
Gupta, Rajesh Lakhan Pal, Anand
