California Small Businesses Given Several Tax Extensions by Executive Order
Businesses will now have another 60 to 90 days to file taxes under Gov. Newsom's plan

On Tuesday, Governor Gavin Newsom signed an Executive Order granting small businesses across California time extensions over filing taxes, refunds, and for different business licenses due to timing and staffing issues stemming from the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.
Under Executive Order N-40-20, small businesses whose returns are under $1 million will have another 90 days to file their tax returns and to settle any payments due at that time. The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) would only begin to send notices to businesses who failed to file beginning on August 1st.
The deadline for tax refund claims was also extended by 60 days, setting a hard June 30th deadline.
In addition, the order extends business license renewals, trainings, and applications also by 60 days. For example, many restaurants operating on a take-out basis will not need to renew any license on the verge of expiring for the next two months. Newsom specifically noted in his press release that the Department of Consumer Affairs will also waive continuing education requirements for several professions until the end of June.
Finally, all public safety officer and state worker misconduct and adverse action investigations were extended by 60 days to complete due to the coronavirus outbreak disrupting many investigations
"This buys a lot of businesses, and by extension their workers, time," explained small business tax preparer Sandra Hall. "Not having deadlines until this summer will give them the time needed to recover from lost business they experienced due to the state stay-at-home order. Many small business owners may not be able to meet with an accountant or a preparer like me either."
"While some businesses can do it remotely, others may not. Sometimes a face-to-face with a box of files is still the way to go. The coronavirus delay may have also delayed any final forms or needed papers from last year. Maybe a company needs to send them a copy of a receipt the filer lost, but because of the coronavirus, they can't dig it out now or access computer records."
"The big takeaway from this Executive Order is that it continues the trend of shifting everything tax-wise to later in the year. There's not enough manpower and open businesses right now to make it feasible."
"If you own a business and can do it, state workers are still processing taxes, as are federal IRS workers for federal,, and they're fine with taking them now. But this gives all affected businesses time."
The federal income tax filing date had been previously moved earlier this month from April 15th to July 15th.

Time extensions? How about tax forgiveness for struggling small businesses that were shut done by Democrat Gov. Newsom's executive order?

T.T. Barber (38), who led the Blue Raiders with 112 tackles, will be facing a Navy offense that is second in the nation at 322 rushing yards per game.
There aren't many opportunities for teams to play against option-based offenses in games, so imagine how difficult it is to simulate it in practice situations. But that's where the Middle Tennessee defense stands as it prepares for Navy's attack that features sophomore quarterback Keenan Reynolds, who set the NCAA single-season record for a quarterback with 29 rushing touchdowns this year.
"It's going to take a lot of mental focus," Blue Raiders senior linebacker Roderic Blunt said. "We have to be disciplined. You've got to know your keys. Everybody has to rake their own leaves. You can't be selfish and try to make a play by taking chances. We just have to work as a team."
It hasn't been that long, though, since Middle Tennessee (8-4) faced and had success defending one of the few other teams in the country that successfully runs an option-based offense. Last season, the Blue Raiders pulled off a 49-28 win at Georgia Tech, which eventually won the ACC Coastal Division.
"They are a very dangerous offense with what they run," Blue Raiders coach Rick Stockstill said of Navy (8-4), which closed the regular season with a 34-7 win over rival Army. "You don't see it very much. They execute at a high level. They do a great job of protecting the ball."
While Reynolds has rushed for a team-high 1,260 yards, there are four other Midshipmen who have rushed for at least 300 yards and another four who have gained at least 194 yards. On top of the 29 rushing TDs by Reynolds, the team has added 18 more rushing scores from nine different runners.
The Blue Raiders' rush defense allowed 185.8 yards per game to rank eighth among 14 Conference USA teams.
While scoring three rushing touchdowns in Navy's 12th-straight win over rival Army to give him 29 on the season, Reynolds surpassed the previous record of 27 rushing scores by a quarterback previously held by Navy's Ricky Dobbs in 2009 and Kansas State's Collin Klein in 2011.
Ironically, Reynolds was a prep standout at Madison (Tenn.) Goodpasture Christian Academy, which is in suburban Nashville, Tenn., and only 45 miles from the Middle Tennessee campus in nearby Murfreesboro. He burst onto the scene at Navy last season, starting eight games and winning six, while becoming the first freshman to start a game for Navy since 1991 and just the third in program history.
While he might be known for his running prowess while leading Navy's option attack, Reynolds is an underrated passer, completing 56 percent (61 of 108) for 898 yards with nine touchdowns and two interceptions last year and he has completed 54 percent (65 of 121) of his throws this year with eight touchdowns and two interceptions.
Stockstill realizes that if the Blue Raiders' defense is going to slow the Navy ground attack, it starts with trying to contain Reynolds at the lead.
"Their quarterback is excellent," Stockstill said of the 5-foot-11, 185-pound Reynolds. "Very seldom does he make mistakes. He can beat you with his feet and can beat you with his decision-making process. He is good, and their defense does not give up big plays."
322 — That's what Navy is averaging in rushing yards per game, good enough to rank second in the nation and trail only second-ranked Auburn (335.7), which is playing No. 1 Florida State in the national championship game. Rounding out the top five teams in rushing are Ohio State (317.5), Northern Illinois (312.50) and Georgia Tech (311.7).
While Navy features the prolific option attack led by Reynolds, Middle Tennessee counters with a veteran quarterback in senior Logan Kilgore, who will be making his 38th career start in the bowl game. He also has several program records of his own to boast, including the most career touchdown passes (53).
The California native became the first quarterback in program history to pass for more than 2,000 yards in three straight seasons after completing 197 of 322 passes (61.2 percent) for 2,289 yards with 16 touchdowns and 11 interceptions this year. At 6-foot-3 and 201 pounds, he is known for his arm strength and leadership skills that helped net the Blue Raiders consecutive seasons with at least eight wins for the first time since 1991-92.
But unlike Navy that leans heavily on the run, the Blue Raiders feature a balanced offensive attack out of its spread offense that has rushed for 2,500 yards this season and passed for a nearly identical 2,489 yards. Despite being slowed by injuries, the running back duo of sophomore Jordan Parker (711) and junior Reggie Whatley (631) combined to gain 1,342 yards.
While the storied Navy program will be making its 10th-straight bowl appearance in the last 11 seasons and 19th overall, the Blue Raiders will play in their fourth bowl game since moving to FBS in 2001. And they have carried a chip on their shoulder carried over from last year when they were snubbed for a bowl invitation despite eight wins in their final year of Sun Belt membership.
The Blue Raiders made a big splash in their inaugural season in Conference USA, going 6-2 in league play and finishing second in the East Division. Starting with a 49-48 win over East Division winner Marshall, Middle Tennessee closed the season on a five-game win streak and, like Navy, is riding high into the bowl game.

Mutiny: 1857

Leonaur Original
Author(s): James Humphries
Date Published: 08/2007
A LEONAUR ORIGINAL PUBLICATION TO MARK THE 150th ANNIVERSARY OF THE INDIAN MUTINY
The voices of one terrible year of blood, horror, battle and revenge
It is now 150 years since the 'Indian Mutiny' burst like an engulfing flame on the British soldiers, their families and the civilians of the Empire in North East India. The Bengal Native army arose in violent rebellion, and the once peaceful countryside became a battleground as Native sepoys and elements of the Indian population, led by their traditional leaders, massacred their masters of the British Empire, besieged them in their cantonments and defeated them in open battle. As the tide turned, a vengeful army of British and loyal Indian troops repressed the insurgency with a savagery that knew no mercy. It was a time of fear and slaughter. James Humphries has drawn together the voices of those dreadful days for this commemorative book. Here is the young British officer whose lazy Sunday is shattered as his own men try to murder him. Here is the wife who witnesses the death of her husband and must run for her life. The loyal sepoy recounts how he is caught in a maelstrom where all suspect his loyalties. An ordinary British soldier describes his suffering as he endures a protracted siege and a young and able author takes us vividly to the battles of final retribution so that we can see the sweat run and the blood spilt. Mutiny: 1857 is the ideal companion for those interested in these terrible events-for the curious it will be a revelation and for the military historian it is a treasure trove of new material. James Humphries puts the events of the Mutiny in an historical context, taking into account all we now know about it and viewing it in the light of what has occurred since.
I know no sight more pleasing to the eye than that of a force crossing these Indian rivers in the cool of the morning. Horsemen in advance soon cross and appear on the opposite banks among the brushwood and trees, while the column moves slowly on, filing down the narrow road that leads to the ford. Once upon the shingle at the water's edge, the infantry commence taking off shoes and stockings to cross, some mount upon each other's backs like schoolboys, having tossed up for the ride over. Then there's the joke; hundreds stay to drink of the clear cold water, native and European mingling together, then quietly wade across and form up upon the opposite bank; then down comes the artillery, gun after gun, dashing the stream about in a thousand rainbows as they pass through; there are the dragoons and gaudily-dressed irregulars in groups quietly watering their horses; there dhooly-bearers carrying the sick men across, sprinkling their heads and dhoolies with the precious water as they go; yonder is a long line of camels jingling with bells, stalking over; and there is the great unwieldy elephant sucking up gallons of water for his capacious stomach (with a huge bunch of leaves tucked up between his trunk and tusk), or blowing it over his heated body and limbs. When he has quenched his thirst, he takes down his leaves and fans the flies away as he carefully moves off..<br>
Both banks are lined with men, horses, and followers, and droves of sheep, goats, and bullocks; all, and every animal, seem delighted with the river. I wonder not that natives worship rivers in this country, for no one can too highly estimate the value of clear, cool, running water, wherein all may wash and be clean, quench their burning thirst, and cool their heated, weary frames after a march over an arid country and through clouds of choking dust.

Bad Boy Billionaires Review
By Dhruv Munjal
Last updated on: October 17, 2020 10:34 IST
The Bad Boy Billionaires series has a lot in common: The three billionaires' hefty ambition, dangerous arrogance and untrammeled power, observes Dhruv Munjal.
Perhaps it was only fitting that a docuseries on four of India's controversial billionaires got off to such a controversial start.
Bad Boy Billionaires on Netflix was slated for release on September 2, but was pushed back after two of the subjects in question, Sahara Chairman Subrata Roy and Satyam founder Ramalinga Raju, approached the courts and got a stay on the release.
The episode featuring Raju is still under wraps but the other three -- including Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi -- became available earlier this month.
By nature, biographical documentaries have always been a bit peculiar: Film-makers often pick out famous personalities as their muses and attempt to recreate their life and times despite so much already being available on them.
That's where, in addition to previously unseen footage, new information acquires colossal importance. Without it, such films turn into prosaic primers on people with otherwise beguiling characters.
That was always going to be the challenge for Bad Boy Billionaires, the arduous nature of which becomes apparent in the first episode itself.
Mallya's life story is so fabulously famous that it was going to take Sherlock-like acuity to unearth anything unknown to the general public.
Predictably then, we're fed with stories about his 'flamboyant' lifestyle, much of which was typified by boundless ambition and a penchant for extravagant parties.
The financial shenanigans of all three businessmen are retold through people close to them.
In Mallya's case, there are testimonies by childhood friend and entrepreneur Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, former Kingfisher Airlines president Alex Wilcox, columnist Shobhaa De and designer Manoviraj Khosla.
From the interviews emerge interesting details about Mallya's younger days: His passion for motorsport -- as a kid, he owned a battery-operated toy Ferrari -- as well as his fast, reckless lifestyle, which he had to alter after his father Vittal Mallya's sudden death.
There are also rare images from Mallya's near-fatal helicopter ride in 2003, with the visuals of the interview in the incident's immediate aftermath revealing the real 'King of Good Times': A man increasingly in awe of his own infallibility.
His son, Sidhartha Mallya, also makes an appearance, but instead of strongly countering the allegations against his father, he sticks to vague assertions like 'they needed a political pawn' and 'a man to be made an example of'.
But perhaps the most distressing part here is Mallya's voyeuristic streak.
Even as anguished former employees of the doomed Kingfisher Airlines -- thousands of them unpaid for months -- speak about their travails, Mallya is shown throwing an obnoxiously expensive bash for his 60th birthday, which also witnessed a performance by Enrique Iglesias.
At the end of which, you can only view Mallya as someone who simply couldn't help himself, drunk on the myth of invincibility and making rash business decisions as a result, the highlight of which was the foolhardy call to buy Air Deccan.
In terms of newness, the second episode, based on diamantaire Nirav Modi, is far more watchable.
Modi's delinquencies are fairly recent, and some of the visuals make for gripping viewing. The journalistic commentary on this one -- most notably the ever-eloquent James Crabtree -- does a fine job of breaking down how Modi, along with uncle Mehul Choksi, duped Punjab National Bank of over Rs 11,000 crore. Sadly, though, there is just a passing mention of Choksi, who now holds Antiguan citizenship.
While the episode on Mallya relies on archival footage, Modi's is more like a series of news reports, many of which are annoyingly repetitive. But Director Johanna Hamilton -- each episode has a different director -- deserves credit for putting forth an empathetic portrait of Modi.
By interviewing women workers from his Surat workshop, Hamilton showcases a businessman not accused of financial fraud, but a caring jeweller who helped change the lives of thousands of people seeking employment.
Even as the section on Modi comes with its share of Bollywood and Hollywood A-listers, Netflix has reserved the most entertaining bits for the final episode.
The World's Biggest Family is a riveting, if greatly disturbing, take on Roy and his Sahara empire.
Roy's backstory -- it all started with him asking farmers to invest in his company in an Uttar Pradesh village in 1978 -- gets you hooked immediately, setting the ball rolling for a scam that went unchecked for decades.
Roy's tale is unique because he was never really in the business of running a company -- he enjoyed a cultish appeal where he allegedly swindled the poor and hapless of their hard-earned money. Through powerful storytelling and sharp imagery, Director Nick Read provides an immaculate dissection of Roy's hubris.
When viewed together, it's safe to say that this docuseries has a lot in common: The three billionaires' hefty ambition, dangerous arrogance and untrammeled power.
But above all, it exposes the fault lines in India's fragile financial and political system: How officials are corruptible, banks often ignorant and politicians largely indifferent.
It also underscores how the Mallyas and Modis of this world may not be the most scheming offenders around.
They are the only ones who've come to light -- the worst may yet follow.

[時事英文]Leonardo DiCaprio Oscar's Curse Is Over! 落獎詛咒總算解除了!
1 三月, 2016 17 七月, 2019 Eric發表留言
[時事英文詞彙] 落獎詛咒總算解除了!在主演過超過24部電影和提名六次奧斯卡獎後,李奧納多狄卡皮歐因主演主演神鬼獵人表現受到評審青睞,終於贏得2016奧斯卡最佳男主角獎。而李奧納多在受獎感言中展現了他對環保議題的重視。我們來看看他是怎麼說的吧!
The curse is finally broken! After starring in over two dozen films and being nominated six times for an Oscar, Leonardo DiCaprio has won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his work in The Revenant. Perhaps the most impressive though, is the actor's concern for the environment in his acceptance speech. Let's learn about what he said!
時事英文詞彙和搭配詞:
1. tireless efforts 不懈的努力
2. a transcendent cinematic experience 超越群倫的電影作品
3. from the onset of… 從…的一開始
http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/onset
4. the most urgent threat 最急迫的威脅
5. voices that have been drowned out 被淹沒的聲音
6. the politics of greed 貪婪的政治
7. take…for granted 把…視為理所當然
Leonardo DiCaprio's Oscars Acceptance Speech:
Thank you all so very much. Thank you to the Academy, thank you to all of you in this room. I have to congratulate the other incredible nominees this year. "The Revenant" was the product of the tireless efforts (不懈的努力) of an unbelievable cast and crew (極好的演員和幕後工作人員). First off, to my brother in this endeavor (努力), Mr. Tom Hardy. Tom, your talent on screen can only be surpassed by your friendship off screen… thank you for creating a transcendent cinematic experience (超越群倫的電影作品 ). Thank you to everybody at Fox and New Regency…my entire team. I have to thank everyone from the very onset of my career (從我的事業的一開始). To my parents, none of this would be possible without you (若沒有你們,不可能會有這些成就). And to my friends, I love you dearly, you know who you are.
And lastly I just want to say this: Making "The Revenant" was about man's relationship to the natural world (人與大自然的關係). A world that we collectively felt in 2015 as the hottest year in recorded history. Our production needed to move to the southern tip of this planet just to be able to find snow. Climate change is real, it is happening right now. It is the most urgent threat(最急迫的威脅) facing our entire species, and we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating (停止拖延). We need to support leaders around the world who do not speak for the big polluters, but who speak for all of humanity, for the indigenous people of the world, for the billions and billions of underprivileged people (貧困的人們) out there who would be most affected by this. For our children's children, and for those people out there whose voices have been drowned out (被淹沒的聲音) by the politics of greed (貪婪的政治). I thank you all for this amazing award tonight. Let us not take this planet for granted (我們不要把這個星球所給予我們的資源視為理所當然). I do not take tonight for granted. Thank you so very much.

2000 Ferrari F360 Modena 6 Speed Manual
2000 FERRARI F360 MODENA - 6 SPEED MANUAL
This example presents beautifully in Silver with black leather trim. It was delivered new to its first owner on the 7th of July 2000 by Ferrari dealer Stratstone of Wilmslow, UK.
The books and service record suggest it was imported to Australia somewhere between 2014 and 2016, according to the service history.
A comprehensive service was completed by a Ferrari specialist in Melbourne in February 2019 (50,517kms), which included a cam belt change, replacing brake pads front and rear, a/con. regas plus all the lubricants changed and a general check over. The vehicle is now due by time for another service, which will be completed as part of the sale.
Powered by a 3.6 Litre V8 engine, factory figures suggest 294Kw and 373Nm of power and torque, delivered in the best possible way through that divine 6 speed gated manual gearbox to the rear wheels. Performance of 0-100kph and a top near 295kph is only outdone by the sound it makes and the fun of using that manual gearbox. A true driver's car in every way.
If you ever dreamed of owning a Ferrari and listening to it work, this is the car for you.
Available to admire on our state of the art showroom floor in Adelaide.

Q: Group by client_id and count belonging events in Python I'm new to Python and am dealing with a situation where I have a dataset like this:
client_id    event_name
123          event_1
1234         event_1
123          event_2
12           event_1
123          event_1

I want to adjust my dataset, so that events are counted per client, like this:
client_id    event_1  event_2
123          2        1
1234         1        0
12           1        0

What I'm aiming for is similar to this topic, but my events are in the same column (event_name) and need to be split up in various columns (event_1, event_2, etc).
I have been struggling with this for a day now, and I think that Python probably has a simple solution for this that I currently just don't see. It would be great if somebody could help me out!

A: Please group by client-id, count_values of each event and unstack .
data.groupby('client_id')['event_name'].value_counts().unstack().reset_index(drop=False)

A: If df data frame looks like this:
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'client_id': [123, 1234, 123, 12, 123], 'event_name': ['event_1', 'event_1', 'event_2', 'event_1', 'event_1']})
>>> print(df)
   client_id event_name
0        123    event_1
1       1234    event_1
2        123    event_2
3         12    event_1
4        123    event_1

You can use pandas.pivot_table() as following.
>>> df.pivot_table(index='client_id', columns='event_name', aggfunc=len, fill_value=0)
event_name  event_1  event_2
client_id
12                1        0
123               2        1
1234              1        0

Candice Olson, who now is known for her home makeover show on HGTV, recently shared some interior design tips with the Washington Post.
Olson suggests that lighting is the most important dynamic while designing a new space, She believes any additional money should go into dimmers or other lighting tools, according to the news source.
Her biggest piece of advice is to encourage people to design for themselves. If you are designing a room for a young child, have them help with the process and keep that in mind while picking out pieces and fabrics, the Post reports.
Olson's show, which is called Divine Design, is aired in over 100 countries. She recently started a new series about what inspires her designs and changes to a space, and also began her own brand of home furnishings, according to the newspaper.
Prospective interior designers can expect to earn nearly $45,000, which was the average annual salary in 2008, when they enter the field, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, if successful, it is possible to earn much more. In the same year, the top 10 percent of designers made more than $83,000 each.


This is a guest post by Tom Wolfenden, the manager at Sheffield Technology Parks.
When Mel asked if I'd like to write a blog post, I wasn't sure I'd have enough stuff to write about. But actually, when I listed everything we've been up to recently, the pages started to fill up.
Firstly, I should explain who 'we' are – I run Sheffield Technology Park (STP) based in the Cooper Buildings on Arundel Street. We're a non-profit economic development organisation at heart, self-funded by rental revenues from our tech community with a remit to do as much as we can to support the Digital scene in the City.
We opened in 1988 with a remit to help Science and Technology businesses to grow. Over the past 30 years we've run numerous incubation programmes and accelerators and been founding partners in businesses too.
When I was appointed as Manager of both STP and the Workstation in 2013, the mission was to make both buildings a good place for the Creative and Digital sector to base themselves, driving both buildings forward to increase occupancy, raise customer service standards and invest in the tired facilities. After 5 years I left the Workstation to focus on resetting STP's core remit – to once again be a supportive, affordable City Centre location to start and grow digital businesses.
We devised The Platform to fill a gap in the City's events calendar back in 2015. Our audience is a wide range of business owners and employees, plus people with an interest in City developments in Tech, Digital, Creative, Artistic and Urban Regeneration. The format and content change between each event, which has resulted in a mixed bag of interesting topics over the past 3 years. Check out current and future events here . Platform is a joint effort from Workstation and STP, with promotion assistance from Business Sheffield.
Cooper Project is a free 6-month incubation programme for pre-start and start up businesses operating in the Tech and Digital sectors. We partnered with Business Sheffield to deliver workshops and business mentor sessions, which created a unique offer to early stage businesses in the City. We are constantly reviewing the positioning of the Cooper Project to compliment other provision available, including Kollider's centres of excellence. As I mentioned earlier – we're here to support and build the Digital scene in Sheffield so we stay agile enough to flex between other projects that come on stream without duplicating or competing with them, and have signposted people from our programme on to theirs.
If you are setting up a business, or know someone who is, email cooperproject@shefftechparks.com to see if we could add value to your business.
Again, being self-funded we can respond to calls from the community quite quickly. So when we heard there was a lack of drop in space that didn't require a contract or minimum term, we set up Freelancer Friday – a monthly opportunity for home workers and freelancers to come together in the same place to be with like-minded people to work for the day.
Homeworking has a lot of benefits, but if it means you're alone the whole time, it gets hard to keep motivated. The first day went well, so we made it a regular event on the 3rd Friday of each month. Sheffield Digital members get preferential rates, too. You can book Freelancer Friday places here.
In addition to the above, we are happy to serve our 150 tenant employees every day, making sure they have all the broadband, furniture and coffee they need to keep working on their businesses. Plus, we're developing work experience placements for 16-18 year olds; assessing the feasibility of a sponsored apprenticeship; working with partners on building an accelerator programme; and helping businesses realise their potential and scale.
All from our little home on Arundel Street.
First of a new year-long series of events and activities for Sheffield's digital entrepreneurs.
Sheffield's latest workspace has big plans and a discount offer for the community.

Security of Pak-India's 'Nukes'
By Sajjad Shaukat
Indio-Pak Nuclear Programme
Overtly, US high officials state that they seek stability in Pakistan, but covertly, they continue to destabilise this country through multi-faceted subversive activities of the American CIA, Indian RAW and Israeli Mossad. With the assistance of these secret agencies, Indo-Israeli lobbies which are working in Europe, and especially, penetrated in the US administration including their media manipulate any major terror event of Pakistan in order to show to the international community that this country's nuclear weapons are not safe as militants can possess them.
Although recent terrorists' assault on Kamra Base was successfully foiled by the personnel of Pakistan Air Force, yet a baseless report, published in the New York Times on the same day said that suspected militants attacked a major Pakistani Air Force base where some of the country's nuclear weapons were considered to be stored in the early hours of the militants' attack. The report also presumed, "The base is part of Pakistan s nuclear stockpile, estimated to include at least 100 warheads."
US Defence Secretary Leon Panetta also stated on the same day, "There is a danger of nuclear weapons of Pakistan, falling into hands of terrorists."
Notably when militants had attacked on Pakistan's Naval Airbase in Karachi on May 23, 2011, US-led some western countries including India and Israel, while exploiting the situation had accelerated their campaign against the security of Pakistan's nuclear weapons. Particularly, on May 25, last year, Indian Defence Minister AK Antony misperceived that India was concerned about the safety of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal after a group of terrorists laid siege to a heavily guarded naval air base." He explained, "Naturally it is a concern not only for us but for everybody."
In fact, US and other hostile countries which feel jealousy in relation to Pakistan's atomic assets, should better have concerns about India's nuclear weapons which are quite insecure.
Indian past record proves various kinds of security lapses regarding various nuclear plants and the related sensitive materials.
In July 1998, India's Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) seized eight Kg. of nuclear material from three engineers in Chennai. It was reported that the uranium was stolen from an atomic research center. On November 7, 2000, International Atomic Agency (IAEA) disclosed that Indian police had seized 57 pounds of uranium and arrested two men for illicit trafficking of radioactive material. IAEA had revealed that Indian civil nuclear facilities were vulnerable to thefts.
On January 26, 2003, CNN pointed out that Indian company, NEC Engineers Private Ltd. shipped 10 consignments to Iraq, containing highly sensitive equipments entailing titanium vessels and centrifugal pumps. In February 2004, India's Ambassador to Libya, Dinkar Srivastava disclosed that New Delhi was investigating that retired Indian scientists could possibly be engaged in "high technology programs" for financial gains during employment in the Libyan government.
In December 2005, US imposed sanctions on two Indian firms for selling missile goods and chemical arms material to Iran in violation of India's commitment to prevent proliferation. In the same year, Indian scientists, Dr. Surendar and Y. S. R Prasad had been blacklisted by Washington due to their involvement in nuclear theft.
In December 2006, a container packed with radioactive material had been stolen from an Indian fortified research atomic facility near Mumbai.
In June 2009, India's nuclear scientist, Lokanathan Mahalingam missed from the scenario and after a couple of days; his dead body was recovered from the Kali River. Indian police concocted a story that Mahalingam had committed suicide by jumping into the river. It is a big joke to hide some real facts behind his death because wisdom proves that if an educated person decides to commit suicide, he will definitely adopt a soft way to eliminate his life. Afterwards, Dr. Haleema Saadia said that death of the scientist is a conspiracy.
However, events of nuclear theft, smuggling and killing have become a regular feature of Indian atomic plants which still continue in one or the other way.
It is regrettable that by setting aside the Indian irresponsible record of proliferation, the US signed defence agreement with India on July 20, 2009 as part of the deal about civil nuclear technology, agreed upon by the two countries in 2008.
Thus, New Delhi is officially allowed to obtain the US sophisticated arms and nuclear weapons for its armed forces. In this regard, America had also pressurised IAEA to sign an accord of specific safeguards with India. It permits New Delhi a broad atomic cooperation, while superseding the IAEA in relation to transfer of nuclear equipments and technologies. These arrangements also entail enrichment and reprocessing items under the so-called cover of IAEA. For this purpose, Washington also contacted the Nuclear Suppliers Group in order to grant a waiver to India for starting civil nuclear trade on larger scale, while New Delhi has not signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). And India has already been getting nuclear material and arms of all kinds from Israel, Russia, and other European countries.
It is mentionable that while acting upon their unilateral approach, US-led west is displaying pin-drop silence over the continued wave of separatism and insurgency in India's more than seven states including terror acts at other places. In case of Maoist insurgency, it has increased to a greater extent. On September 21, 2009, even Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had admitted that the Maoist "insurgency is the single biggest threat to India's security.
On the other side, despite the repeated assurances of Pakistan's military and civil leadership that Pakistan's nuclear weapons are well-protected and are under tight security arrangements, having well-coordinated command and control system, a deliberate propaganda campaign against the safety of these weapons keeps on going particularly by the US and India. Besides, some European countries also make much hue and cry regarding the safety of Pakistan's nuclear assets by ignoring Indian illegal proliferation. It indicates their double standards in the Sub-continent. Nonetheless, Pak 'nukes' are more secure than those of India.
