(MENAFN- UkrinForm) The United States calls on Russia to release more than 100 Crimean political prisoners, including Deputy Head of the Crimean Tatar Mejlis Nariman Dzhelyal and Radio Liberty journalist Vladyslav Yesypenko.
“We continue to receive reports of serious abuses in Russia-occupied Crimea. We call for the release of all of the over 100 Ukrainian citizens held by Russia as political prisoners, including Deputy Head of the Crimean Tatar Mejlis Nariman Dzhelyal and Radio Liberty journalist Vladyslav Yesypenko,” Courtney Austrian, Chargé d'Affaires at the U.S. Mission to the OSCE, said at the Permanent Council meeting in Vienna on November 25.
Austrian also pointed out concerns about the deteriorating health of imprisoned Crimean Solidarity activist Jamil Gafarov, who suffers from serious kidney disease and is reportedly being denied critical medical care, including dialysis.
In addition, the U.S. diplomat called on the Russian occupying power in Crimea to immediately release 31 Crimean Tatars, who were detained on November 23 while waiting near the Simferopol detention center to greet lawyer Edem Semedlyaev, whose arrest term had ended.
Austrian emphasized that the United States will never recognize Russia's purported annexation of Crimea and Crimea-related sanctions“will remain in place until Russia returns full control of the peninsula to Ukraine.”
As reported, on the evening of November 23, Russian security forces detained 31 people who came to the Simferopol detention center to greet lawyer Edem Semedlyaev after he had served his 12-day arrest. Women, a 14-year-old girl, and five citizen journalists were among those detained.
The occupation court ruled to fine Semedlyaev RUB 4,000 and take him into custody for 12 days. The lawyer was 'found guilty' because he recorded a conversation between the police and his client while performing his duties as a defense lawyer and also refused to undress when officers wanted to check his body for 'extremist tattoos.'

(MENAFN- AFP) Greece made a loan interest payment due Thursday to the International Monetary Fund, the institution said, avoiding another default as the debt-riddled country negotiates a third rescue plan.
"Greece has paid the interest charges due to the IMF today," which amount to about 186.3 million euros ($203.6 million), the International Monetary Fund said in a statement.
The payment was the first time since early June that Greece had met the deadline for its loan payments to the IMF.
Cash-strapped Greece missed a 1.5 billion euro repayment on June 30, becoming the first developed country to default on an IMF loan. Less than two weeks later, Greece missed a 456 million euro payment to the IMF.
When it first defaulted at the end of June, the IMF froze Greece's access to its resources, including the Fund's ongoing financing program for the country.
However, on July 20, Greece paid the IMF about two billion euros in arrears, after it received an emergency bridge loan from the European Union, restoring its eligibility for IMF financing.
Representatives of the IMF, the European Commission and the European Central Bank -- the international creditors of Greece's two bailouts since 2010 -- are currently in Athens holding negotiations with the Greek authorities on a third bailout.
Greece needs a deal that will unlock bailout funds by August 20, when it must repay some 3.4 billion euros due to the European Central Bank.
After Thursday's payment to the IMF, Athens still owes about 22 billion euros, according to the Washington-based institution's website.
The next IMF payment, of about 307 million euros, is due on September 1.

(MENAFN) Oleksiy Reznikov, Ukraine’s Defense Minister, reported that Ukraine’s intelligence is studying various situations for a probable huge conquest by Russia, stated a Ukrinform reporter in reference to the minister’s statement in the Verkhovna Rada on Friday, Dec. 3.
Reznikov mentioned, “Our intelligence is analyzing all scenarios, including the worst-case scenario. It says that there is a possibility of large-scale escalation by Russia. The most probable time when [Russia] is ready for escalation will be the end of January.”
Simultaneously, the minister highlighted the possibility of this situation, and the essential goal now is to stop that from becoming a reality.
The minister declared, “The better we work - alone and together with our partners - the less the risk of escalation. The way is to make the price of possible escalation unacceptable for the aggressor. Ukraine is most interested in the political and diplomatic scenario of the settlement. In principle, there can be no forceful provocations on our part. At the same time, the way to 'pacify the aggressor' is not being considered. If necessary, Ukraine will fight back.”

(MENAFN- The Peninsula) The Peninsula
London: A new study that examined data from almost 34,000 people has found that as little as 1 hour of exercise each week, regardless of intensity, can help to prevent depression.
Depression is a very common disorder, affecting around 6.7 percent of adults in the United States per year.
The economic burden of this disease was estimated to be $210.5 billion in 2010 alone.
At a global level, the World Health Organization (WHO) calculates that more than 300 million people live with the disorder.
Treatments for depression usually involve medication, psychotherapy, or cognitive behavioral therapy, or a combination of these approaches.
Recently, Australia-based not-for-profit group Black Dog Institute, who offer support to people with mood disorders, launched a 1-month campaign encouraging people to exercise.
They suggest on their website that regular physical activity can help to prevent and treat depression.
This is supported by research conducted by scientists from the Black Dog Institute in collaboration with colleagues from other institutions worldwide, including universities and health institutes from the United Kingdom, Australia, and Norway.
The study - led by Prof. Samuel Harvey, from the Black Dog Institute - analyzed data collected from 33,908 Norwegian adults who were followed over a period of 11 years.
"We've known for some time that exercise has a role to play in treating symptoms of depression, but this is the first time we have been able to quantify the preventive potential of physical activity in terms of reducing future levels of depression," Harvey stated.
"These findings," he adds, "are exciting because they show that even relatively small amounts of exercise - from 1 hour per week - can deliver significant protection against depression."
The results were published in the American Journal of Psychiatry.

(MENAFN) According to a new NPR/Marist poll, the majority of United States voters reject former President Donald Trump's claims that he is the victim of a political witch hunt. The poll revealed that most Americans believe the various criminal investigations against him are fair, and over six in ten do not want him back in the White House. The survey found that almost half of United States voters, at 46 percent, believe that Trump is guilty of a crime, while an additional 29 percent say he has done something unethical, if not illegal. Only 23 percent of respondents believe that Trump has done nothing wrong.
Even among Republican voters, more than half, at 53 percent, believe that the former president did something unethical or illegal. Meanwhile, 74 percent of independents and 64% of white evangelical Christians say that Trump has committed misconduct or a crime. The poll results show that, despite the continued support from his base, Trump's claims of innocence are not widely accepted, and a significant portion of the United States population believes that he has committed wrongdoing.
Marist College polling chief Lee Miringoff noted that it is striking that white evangelical Christians are not as strongly behind Trump as they once were. This shift in support may be due to the multiple allegations of wrongdoing against the former president. The poll results highlight the continued division within the US electorate regarding Trump, with many Americans still holding negative views of the former president and his actions while in office.

(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) MOSCOW, Aug 5 (KUNA) -- Russian President Vladimir Putin thanked his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan for his role in reaching the agreement in Istanbul on July 22 to unlock the grain exports from Ukrainian Black Sea ports.
The agreement, brokered by Turkiye and the UN Secretariat, helped address the global food crisis resulting from shortage of wheat supplies from Ukraine, Putin said during the summit meeting between him and Erdogan in the Black Sea resort of Sochi, southern Russia, on Friday.
President Putin also appreciated the role of his guest in striking an agreement on the grain and fertilizer exports from Russia to the global markets, according to the Russian TV station.
Such deals are highly important for the developing countries which are on the verge of a serious food crisis, he noted.
Putin voiced hope for striking a deal with Turkiye on upgrading the trade and economic relations, noting that the bilateral trade volume doubled in 2022.
He hailed the TurkStream natural gas pipeline project launched two years ago, saying that the pipeline from Russia to Turkey across the Black Sea is one of the major routes of Russian gas exports to Europe.
On his part, President Erdogan who arrived in Sochi earlier today on a one-day visit to Russia, said his meeting with Putin is intensively covered by the world's political, economic and media circles due to the active roles of both countries in the regional and international affairs.
Turkiye plans to open a new chapter of cooperation with Russia, he said, noting that his country pins high hopes on the Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant, being constructed by Rosatom - a Russian energy giant, in Buyukeceli town, Mersin Province, southern Turkey.
Today's summit, which follows a similar meeting between both men in Tehran three weeks ago, is expected to cover a wide range of bilateral, regional and international issues of common concern. (end)

Kuwait- Municipality Closes Down Some Market Stalls Selling Spoiled Fish
(MENAFN- Arab Times) Inspection teams from Capital Municipality held a campaign in the fish stalls at Mubarakiya market and Souq Sharq where they confiscated large quantities of spoiled fish and closed down some stalls that were caught selling them. Head of the inspection teams declared that Kuwait Municipality has been monitoring the market to check if spoiled fish are being sold, and observing the fishmongers and owners of fish stalls to ensure they are abiding by the rules and regulations of the Kuwait Municipality.
Sold Officers from Kuwait Municipality have been keeping an eye on these two markets on a daily basis and ensuring that fresh fish are being sold to the people. Kuwait Municipality urged Kuwaiti citizens and expatriates to call the hotline number 139 to report any problems related to prices, cleanliness and other violations.
Meanwhile, visitors to the two markets expressed their appreciation to the municipality for its efforts in this regard. Meanwhile, former chairman of Animal Resources Society Ayed Al-Nasafi objected to the calls made on social media for urging the Kuwaiti public to boycott the purchase of meat due to its increasing prices, reports Al- Seyassah daily. He said, "There is no reason to boycott the purchase of meat because the price of sheep in the local market is not expensive. In fact, it is cheaper now than what it was during Eid Al-Fitr". Al-Nasafi affirmed that the average price of local sheep is KD 80 and it will vary depending on the size of the sheep, adding that Iranian, Sudanese and Indian meat are cheaper.

(MENAFN- Muscat Daily) Muscat- The developer of Oman's first eco mall, the upcoming Al Araimi Boulevard, was honoured by the Middle East Council of Shopping Centres (MECSC) at the Next Generation networking event, last week.
The event showcased the Al Araimi Boulevard to officials from almost 20 malls in the sultanate and representatives from Lebanon, Kuwait and Dubai.
Dubbed as the Westfield of Oman, the upcoming mall in Al Khoudh will be spread over two floors across 147,200sq m. It is scheduled to open in September 2018.
Developed by the Al Raid Group in cooperation with Design International and Kaosys, the mall is estimated to cost RO62mn. It will have 250 outlets, ten cinema halls, 20 restaurants and a parking lot for around 3,000 cars.
Sheikh Raid Abdullah Ali al Araimi, vice chairman of Al Raid Group, said, 'The mall is going to be a one-stop destination for every family and visitor. We will have the largest food court ever-built in Oman to accommodate more than 1,000 people. The boulevard will offer a 6,000sq m entertainment area for live shows and other performances.'
He added that Omanisation will be the key target and the mall is expected to create 800 direct and 1,200 indirect jobs.
David Macadam, CEO of MECSC said, 'The mall will cater to a large section of Omani population. It will be an incredible experience to visit the place. There has been massive evolution in malls from the inclusion of cinema to children's playgrounds in the last few decades. I see edutainment becoming part of the mall culture.'
Among the many facilities it will have include fountains and exotic gardens, kids' planet and a ten-screen cinema complex with four DX cinema screens.

(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Eight members of the militant group Hamas were missing Wednesday after the collapse of a tunnel in the Gaza Strip caused by rain and flooding, a security source said.
The tunnel collapsed overnight in the area of Jabalia in the north of the Palestinian enclave after several days of rainfall, the security source in the area said on condition of anonymity.
"The resistance tunnel collapsed last night due to the weather and flooding," the source said, adding that the tunnel belonged to Hamas, the Islamist movement that rules the Gaza Strip.
"There were 11 resistance men inside. Three of them escaped in the first hour after the accident, but the security operation... continues to search for the eight others."
Such collapses have previously occurred in the coastal strip, which is under an Israeli blockade and has seen three wars with the Jewish state since 2008.
On Saturday, a tunnel collapse killed a 30-year-old man, according to Hamas officials. Residents said the tunnel was located in Al-Maghazi in the central Gaza Strip.
In December, 14 Palestinians were rescued after being stranded for hours in a tunnel near the Egyptian border when it flooded and partially collapsed.
During a 50-day conflict in 2014, Israeli warplanes destroyed a large part of the underground network of tunnels used by Gazans.
At the end of 2014, Egypt began the construction of a buffer zone in the northern Sinai Peninsula, on the border with Gaza, including destroying hundreds of tunnels it says are used for smuggling weapons.
Hamas has reportedly rebuilt tunnels destroyed in the 2014 conflict that Israeli officials say could be used to carry out attacks.
Israel's blockade severely restricts the movement of people and goods into and out of the enclave.
Egypt's sole border with Gaza has also remained largely closed following the 2013 overthrow of president Mohamed Mursi of the Muslim Brotherhood, effectively trapping the 1.8 million Gazans into the territory.

(MENAFN- The Peninsula) Beirut:Lebanese militant movement Hezbollah has used weaponised drones against the Islamic State group across the border in war-ravaged Syria, its media arm said on Monday.
A source on the ground told AFP it was the first time that Hezbollah had deployed weaponised drones against IS in Syria, where the Shiite movement is fighting to bolster President Bashar al-Assad's forces.
"The armed drones of the Resistance (Hezbollah) targeted Daesh positions and fortifications in western Qalamun," Hezbollah's War Media channel said, using the Arabic acronym for IS.
On Saturday, Hezbollah said it had launched an operation against IS in a hilly region known as western Qalamun, near Syria's border with Lebanon.
Lebanon's army announced a simultaneous offensive on the Lebanese side of the frontier, and has already recaptured two-thirds of the area.
A source on the ground told AFP on Monday that "this is the first time Hezbollah has used weaponised drones in a clash with IS".
The group had deployed such drones in previous clashes with other jihadists and rebels, "but now we are unleashing a barrage of bombs", the source said.
Security along Lebanon's unmarked eastern border with Syria has long been a concern.
Last month, Hezbollah waged a six-day assault against Al-Qaeda's former affiliate in the border region, which ended in the evacuation of the jihadists and thousands of civilians.
The current offensive targets remaining territory further north along the frontier where IS militants have entrenched themselves.
The Lebanese army has denied any coordination with Hezbollah or the Syrian army on the ongoing assault.
IS itself has used weaponised drones to defend territory it holds in Iraq and Syria from US-backed offensives.
The group claimed twin attacks in Spain on Friday that left 15 people dead.

(MENAFN- Famagusta Gazette) Whaling ships in Iceland can resume the hunting of giant fin whales from September, following a two-month suspension by the government to assess whaling practices.
However, bad weather prevented the ships from leaving the port on Friday, according to the national broadcaster RUV.

A working group established to investigate the issue later concluded that there is room for improvement in the hunting methods, therefore new regulations will be implemented with detailed and stricter requirements concerning equipment, hunting methods, and increased supervision, RUV reported.
According to a recent opinion poll, opposition to whaling has been growing in Iceland. In the survey conducted by the research company Maskina on behalf of the Iceland Nature Conservation Association in August, 42 percent of respondents expressed opposition to whaling and 29 percent were in favor.

(MENAFN) A Japanese resort operator, Hoshino Resorts, has unveiled ambitious plans to transform a historic former prison in Nara city, western Japan, into a luxurious hotel, with an expected opening date in the spring of 2026.
The prison, dating back to the early 20th century, is a red brick structure renowned for its iconic appearance. Hoshino Resorts is merging multiple cells within the building to craft 48 guest rooms, promising an exceptional and distinctive experience for visitors at the "Hoshinoya Nara Prison." The refurbished interiors will retain some historical features, such as high windows designed to prevent jailbreaks.
Originally slated to open in the summer of 2024, the project faced delays, primarily due to the necessity of conducting earthquake resistance assessments. Situated in close proximity to Nara Park, known for its tourist attractions, including a population of friendly deer and the Todai-ji temple complex, the hotel's location offers unique appeal.
The Nara Prison, which once accommodated 935 inmates, exceeding its designed capacity of 650, served as a juvenile prison after World War II until its closure in 2017 due to its aging infrastructure. It was subsequently designated as a nationally important cultural property. Future plans include constructing a museum accessible to day visitors on the hotel's premises.

Doha: Dr. Aswini Bose, a 60-year-old doctor, and athlete, recently achieved a rare and impressive feat by representing his country and bringing home three gold medals in the 60m, 100m, and 200m sprint events at the 7th international Masters Athletic Meet in Pokharan, Nepal.
Dr. Bose faced a significant challenge during his training when he encountered a slight issue with his knee and was advised to stop his sprints. However, his determination to continue competing and represent his country led him to seek the support of Dr. Divya Geeta, an orthopaedic surgeon at Naseem Surgical Centre at Medical Centre in C ring road.
Dr. Geeta was very supportive of Dr. Bose's endeavours and provided him with the confidence and guidance he needed. Thanks to her support, Dr. Bose was able to triumph over the physical and mental hurdles he faced and bring home three gold medals.“I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Geeta for her medical care and guidance,” said Dr. Bose.
Dr. Bose personally thanked Dr. Geeta for her support by presenting her with his gold medals.

Swiss President Ignazio Cassis has spoken of a turning point for the continent at the first summit of the European Political Community, attended by more than 40 European leaders.

“This summit is a symbol. A symbol that Europe can be strong when it seeks concrete solutions,” Cassis, who is also the Swiss foreign minister, said at a press conference in Prague on Thursday.
In view of the war in Ukraine and the challenges it poses, Cassis welcomed the fact that“cooperation was thought out more broadly” in this format.
“At the moment, Russia is destabilising the European continent with energy and migration as weapons,” he said. This, in his opinion, had contributed to a closing of ranks and a“sense of a community of destiny”.
The forum, aimed at boosting security and prosperity across Europe, brought together existing EU members, aspiring partners in the Balkans and Eastern Europe, as well as Britain and Turkey. Russia was the one major European power not invited, along with its neighbour and supporter in the war, Belarus.
“At a time when the entire continent is facing major challenges, this new broader format provides a welcome opportunity for direct and informal exchanges with other European countries,” Cassis .“In hosting the Ukraine Recovery Conference this year, for example, Switzerland has demonstrated that it is helping to promote peace, stability and democracy in Europe.”

Russian president calls Chechen counterpart a top rank in Russia’s army
(MENAFN) Chechen president Ramzan Kadyrov, a partner of Leader Vladimir Putin, stated Wednesday he was given a top rank in Russia’s army, just as Moscow’s militaries struggle with a series of losses in Ukraine.
The 46-year-old Chechen president — one of the most honest voices in Russia supporting Putin’s Ukraine attack — stated it was a “huge honor” for him.
Kadyrov, a previous warlord who heads Chechnya with widespread abuses of human rights, declared Putin had “personally” told him of the move.
“The President of Russia awarded me the rank of colonel general,” Kadyrov shared on Telegram. “This is a promotion for me.”
The rank of colonel general is the third highest command rank in the Russian military pecking order.
Kadyrov’s selection to the rank came as the Ukrainian army repelled Moscow’s militaries in areas that the Kremlin announced to be “Russian forever.”
The Chechen president added he would do “everything to end the special military operation quickly” — using the Kremlin’s label for its Ukraine drive.

(MENAFN- The Peninsula) AA
ZAMBOANGA CITY, Philippines: Three IS-linked militants have surrendered to government troops in the southern province of Sulu, where over a dozen hostages remain in captivity.
The surrender of the Abu Sayyaf terrorists was announced late Tuesday by Army Brigadier General Cirilito Sobejana, commander of Joint Task Force Sulu.
Sobejana said the bandits gave up to troops of the Philippine Army's 32nd Infantry Battalion in Bonbon village in Patikul town. They also laid down their high-powered firearms.
The militants, who hail from the village of Liang, also in Patikul, are followers of the late Abu Sayyaf sub-leader Ninok Sappari, who was head of the "Lucky 9 group in Sulu.
Sappari's group assassinated military personnel and kidnapped both locals and foreigners in Sulu and Tawi-Tawi. Sappari had been wanted for 32 counts of murder.
"The surrendered Abu Sayyaf members are currently undergoing a custodial debriefing facilitated by our intelligence operatives," said Sobejana.
Army Lt. General Carlito Galvez, chief of the Western Mindanao Command, welcomed the surrender of the terrorists, saying they will prepare them for reintegration into mainstream society.
Galvez, however, said the military offensives will continue despite the mounting number of terrorists who are now deciding to lay down their arms.
"Efforts are ongoing to rescue the hostages and contain the bandits in the province," he added.
More than a dozen hostages including Vietnamese, Malaysian nationals, a Dutchman and Filipinos are believed to be held captive by the Abu Sayyaf group in remote jungles of Sulu.
WestMinCom records show that from Jan. 1, 2017 to date, 117 Abu Sayyaf terrorists have surrendered with their firearms.

(MENAFN- IANS) Bengaluru, Dec 11 (IANS) About 64 per cent of hybrid cloud users in India now have a formal, organisation-wide policy and approach for the use of Generative AI (GenAI), a new report showed on Monday.
However, Cloud leaders are concerned about the challenges associated with the privacy and confidentiality of data and information when adopting GenAI, according to the report by tech major IBM.
In addition to the ability to unlock the power of generative AI being cited as one of the key benefits of a hybrid cloud approach, leaders agreed that a cloud environment is essential for managing sustainability initiatives at an enterprise level, but workforce deficiencies in cloud skills are impacting implementation.
“As GenAI gains momentum in India, organizations need to harness the power of a robust hybrid cloud approach to tackle challenges that are coming to the forefront. Investing in the right cloud technologies and tools will help businesses tackle increasing security and compliance concerns and deliver on their sustainability goals,” explained Viswanath Ramaswamy, Vice President–Technology, IBM India and South Asia.
“It is heartening to see that about 85% of respondents have said they are creating new job positions to fulfil the need for cloud skills in this Generative AI era,” he added.
In India, 68 per cent of the business leaders, on average, agreed that lack of cloud skills remains a considerable challenge in their digital transformation journeys, which is higher than the global average of 58 per cent, ranking second to only Japan (75 per cent).
Indian organisations are leading the efforts to close the skills gap, followed by those surveyed in the US (80 per cent), the UK (77 per cent), Germany (72 per cent), Spain (72 per cent) and Australia (70 per cent).
As the adoption of GenAI grows, the data processing power required for AI workloads can present new challenges to organisations that are looking to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.
“In fact, 43 per cent of decision-makers surveyed in India agreed that they use cloud to help deploy, track, and manage sustainability goals internally, while 44 per cent say they use cloud to help deploy, track, and manage sustainability goals for third parties,” the report mentioned.

Iran to Address Nuclear Weapons Concerns
(MENAFN- Qatar News Agency) Iran has agreed to cooperate with UN investigators searching for evidence that the Islamic state sought to develop nuclear weapons, a historic development that could shed light on key aspects of Iran's nuclear program. The UN International Atomic Energy Agency that has been investigating the extent of Iran's nuclear program will now be provided "information and explanations" by Tehran for its experiments with a kind of detonator can be used to trigger a nuclear explosion, the US daily "Time" reported Monday. For three years the UN has listed the detonator as a key concern, but Iran, an oil-rich nation, has insisted the detonator is used in oil extraction and related work. Now, however, after months of negotiations and a preliminary agreement was reached in November, Iran will also address the IAEA's questions about its suspected nuclear weapons development after years of rejecting related claims. The United States and five other world powers will meet for a seminal meeting February 18 with Iran, with Iran seeking to have crippling economic sanctions fully lifted in exchange for a pact that permanently reduces Iran's uranium enrichment progra

(MENAFN- IANS) San Francisco, April 4 (IANS) Active workstations containing a walking pad, bike, stepper or standing desk are successful strategies for lowering sedentary time and improving mental cognition at work without reducing job performance, a new study suggested on Thursday.
According to the Mayo Clinic study published in the journal of the American Heart Association, extended sedentary behaviour, whether at work or home, increases a person's risk of preventable chronic diseases.
"Active workstations may offer a way to potentially improve cognitive performance and overall health, simply by moving at work," said Francisco Lopez-Jimenez, MD, a preventive cardiologist at Mayo Clinic and senior author of the study.
The study involved 44 participants in a randomised clinical trial where four office settings were assessed over four consecutive days.
Researchers analysed participants' neurocognitive function based on 11 assessments that evaluated reasoning, short-term memory and concentration.
Fine motor skills were evaluated through an online typing speed test, and other tests.
"Being sedentary is the new smoking when it comes to your cardiovascular health, and office workers may spend a large part of their eight-hour workday sitting at a computer screen and keyboard," said Lopez-Jimenez.
As per the study, when participants used the active workstations, their brain function either improved or stayed the same, and their typing speed slowed down only a bit.
However, the accuracy of their typing was not affected.
"These findings indicate that there are more ways to do that work while remaining productive and mentally sharp," said the researcher.
The study revealed improved reasoning scores when standing, stepping and walking as compared to sitting.

Thiruvananthapuram, Oct 14 (IANS) If anyone thought that all is well in the Pinarayi Vijayan government in Kerala, it appears it's not the case as at the meeting of the CPI-M legislators two State Ministers came under fire and it included none other than Vijayan's 'new' son-in-law State PWD and Tourism Minister P.A. Mohammed Riyas and Education Minister V. Sivankutty.
Incidentally when seats were distributed for the April 6 assembly polls, Vijayan caused the first surprise by asking Riyas to contest from the Beypur seat in Kozhikode district, which he won comfortably as it's a stronghold of the CPI-M for a while and Vijayan reserved the biggest surprise when he decided to give him a cabinet post, much to the dislike of A.N. Shamseer, who was a two time legislator, unlike Riyas, who won an election for the first time.
Shamseer has made his displeasure a few times in the assembly, much to the surprise of not just the treasury bench, but also the opposition benches.
The CPI-M legislators were also peeved when Riyas in the assembly in reply to a question about the works being undertaken by his Public Works Department, reminded that it's not good when legislators come with contractors to meet him.
According to a source in the know of things, it was this remark which irked the legislators and they aired their displeasure at the legislature party meeting of the CPI-M, held on Tuesday, as the ongoing assembly session is currently on.
A few legislators raised this and soon, Riyas realised the pulse and he admitted his mistake and assured that it will not happen.
Likewise Sivankutty also came under fire for the way the result of the Class X was handled and the subsequent disarray caused in the admission to Class XI, which has sent parents of the students seeking admission helter-skelter because of lack of seats.
A media critic said perhaps this is the first time that CPI-M legislators are coming out in the open.
"Even though this occurred within the four walls of the party forum, things do not appear to be that well and this is going to become fodder for the Congress led opposition and when the assembly session resumes next week, this displeasure expressed by the party legislators, will be taken advantage of by the opposition," said the critic.
