An Indian response to the provocation by Bangladesh's Chief Adviser, Mohammed Yunus, was inevitable. While on a visit to China, Yunus had called India's Northeast 'landlocked'. The remark by Yunus alluded to the perception of Bangladesh being the guardian of access to the Indian Northeast through the sea routes as the land route ran through a constricted corridor. Yunus suggested that this geographical positioning presents significant opportunities for China, proposing that Bangladesh could serve as an extension of the Chinese economy by facilitating production and trade activities aimed at both China and global markets. No Let-Up In Tensions The Indian response and the actual interpretation of what Yunus said and meant are important issues in the emerging standoff between India and Bangladesh. Despite the one-on-one meeting at the BIMSTEC Summit in Bangkok, between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Adviser Mohammad Yunus, there appears no let-up in the rising te...

The Singapore Supreme Court has set aside a ruling from an arbitration tribunal led by ex-Chief Justice of India Deepak Mishra after observing that 47 per cent of its contents - i.e., 212 of 451 paragraphs - were copied verbatim from two prior awards involving him. Two other senior judges - ex-Madhya Pradesh High Court Justice Krishn Kumar Lahoti and ex-Jammu & Kashmir High Court Chief Justice Gita Mittal - were also part of that tribunal. A Singapore Supreme Court bench of Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon and Justice Steven Chong found the earlier awards were used as "templates... to a very substantial degree" and observed, "It is undisputed that at least 212 paragraphs... were retained. This has several implications." The Supreme Court's Court of Appeal said that while it is not improper for an arbitrator to resolve two related disputes, the fault lay in "portions from the Parallel (i.e., the two earlier) Awards (being) reproduced in the (third) Award...

The Omar Abdullah-led National Conference today passed two resolutions, one urging the Centre to respect the people's mandate in Jammu and Kashmir and another condemning the passage of the Waqf (Amendment) Bill in Parliament. The resolutions followed a two-hour legislative party meeting of the ruling National Conference and its allies. They come amid a tussle between the Omar Abdullah government and Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha's office. The National Conference has said it wants to run the government with "love and respect" and its silence should not be construed as its "weakness". It has also urged the BJP-led central government to "not push them to the wall". Behind the first major confrontation between the Union Territory's government and Raj Bhavan is the transfer of 48 Jammu and Kashmir Administrative Service (JKAS) officers on the Lieutenant Governor's instructions. According to sources, the elected government feels that the orde...

The initial bonhomie between the Omar Abdullah government and the Centre in Jammu and Kashmir appears to be fizzling out. It has been replaced by simmering tension over the transfer of 48 Jammu and Kashmir Administrative Service officers by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha. The Chief Minister has called an emergency meeting of his party legislators and allies on Friday to decide the future course of action. Sources say the elected government feels that order has disrespected the mandate of people and trampled upon the authority of the elected government in the Union Territory. "It can't be business as usual. We wanted cordial relation with Raj Bhavan and the Centre, but they have chosen to disrespect the mandate. It is unacceptable" said a senior leader of the National Conference. The conflict has erupted days before the visit of Union Home Minister Amit Shah. Mr Shah is arriving in the Union Territory on Sunday for a three-day visit to review the security situation in ...
