Chandigarh, December 6, 2023 (Yes Punjab News)
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Wednesday asked the officers of the state government to ensure that the benefits of the pro-people and development oriented schemes of the state government are percolated to every genuine beneficiary.
Chairing a meeting with the Administrative Secretaries of all the departments, the Chief Minister said that the state government is committed to the holistic development of Punjab and prosperity of its people. He said that heath, education, employment and others are the priority areas of the state governments and major thrust should be given to facilitate people in these. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the ongoing works must be completed within the stipulated time frame and new schemes should be formulated for the well being of the people.
The Chief Minister said that new welfare schemes must be conceived and executed by keeping in view the larger public interest. He said that Punjab is scripting a new success story in every field and emerging as a front ranking state in the country. Bhagwant Singh Mann asked the officers to ensure that the budget earmarked to their respective departments is utilised well in time.
The Chief Minister said that there is no dearth of funds as far as the development of state and progress of its people is concerned. He said that providing good governance and clean administration to the people was the top priority of the state government. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the basic motto of holding this meeting was to ensure that the benefits of these schemes were ensured to every eligible beneficiary at grass-root level.
The Chief Minister said that any sort of callousness in implementation of the social welfare schemes was totally unwarranted and undesirable. Underlining the need for evolving a foolproof mechanism to benefit the needy person, he said that the officers must keep a regular tab to ensure that the people are benefited from these schemes. Bhagwant Singh Mann cautioned the officers that the state government will adopt zero tolerance towards any sort of laxity and nepotism in implementation of government schemes.
The Chief Minister further said that the state government was committed to imparting the benefit of these schemes to every genuine beneficiary. He said that it was the need of hour to carve out a ‘Rangla Punjab’ where everyone can live life with dignity and pride. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that every eligible beneficiary has right on the social welfare scheme and the officers are duty bound to ensure that it is not be denied at any cost.


In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer wrote about a story that surfaced in regards to something said at a talent meeting by Kenny Omega.
Omega reportedly gave the locker room a pep talk with some words said that were construed by some as "tough love" and others being irked by what was said. Omega reportedly said that he wouldn't have hired eight out of every ten people on the roster.
Meltzer said that he absolutely said that line and one version of the story is that he was being comedic when he said it and he was looking at Will Ospreay when he said it. Omega reportedly said that he was just messing with Ospreay when he said it. Ospreay and Omega have gone back and forth on Twitter in recent months and it's clear that they are working to build an eventual singles match.
However, others took what Omega said as serious and they were upset about what he said. Others who were there said that what he said was totally misinterpreted and taken out of context. Meltzer added that Omega also said, "that the overall energy and locker room at the start of the company was more positive, perhaps in trying to recreate that time and place with the current roster."

“The economic strategy between Sri Lanka and China for the next two decades has been laid down and since we are going to be the hub of the Indian Ocean there is going to be a significant difference here,” the Prime Minister added.
He further said that both sides had also agreed to resume the Port City project which will be transformed into a special financial and business district.
The project will be part of a megapolis programme which was launched by the Government earlier this year. (Colombo Gazette)

principal secretary K N Nehru
on Wednesday asked party supporters and members not to react to accusations against the party on social media
“The party supporters and members must identify those who use social media to accuse DMK in a planned manner and avoid such people,” said Nehru.
He said though the party follows the ideologies of Periyar, Anna, and Kalaignar, it does not stand against those who are religious or spiritual.
“Kalaignar (Karunanidhi) had clearly said the rationalist campaign of the party will not prevent those who believe in God. The party works based on these principles. DMK is unnecessarily being accused of attacking believers,” said Nehru.
Nehru stated that DMK is an open book and Anna believed in transparency. “Our motto is to uplift Tamil people and those who are attacking us don't want the Tamil people to rise in the society,” said Nehru.
He accused those who are attacking DMK on social media and said they were doing so to make the civilians forget the Centre and the state government's failure in containing Covid-19 in the state.
“Our cadre should understand the reasons behind the attacks and respond to the attackers. We should also talk about the anger among the people due to the failure of the two governments in dealing with the virus,” said Nehru.

(CNSNews.com) – A strong majority of Americans want Congress to repeal the recently signed health care reform package, a finding that contradicts claims from the law’s chief proponents – including President Obama – that the public will like the law now that it has been signed.
Rasmussen Reports found that 55 percent of voters want to see the law repealed. The poll, taken after the president signed the bill, shows that opposition to it has remained strong. Prior to its passage, 54 percent of voters opposed the legislation.
Forty-two percent oppose repeal, close to the 41 percent who supported the legislation prior to its enactment. Forty-six percent of voters say that they “strongly favor” repeal, while only 35 percent “strongly oppose” it.
In a sign that the repeal effort may have support beyond the conservative Republican base, 59 percent of independent voters support repealing the law while only 35 percent are opposed.
Rasmussen also found numbers that do not bode well for Democratic politicians who supported the bill, finding that 52 percent of voters would vote for a candidate who favored repeal over one who does not. Forty-nine percent of voters also want their state to sue the federal government over the health reform package.
Democrats still appear to have lost the public debate over the issue, with 49 percent of voters thinking that the bill will be bad for the country, while 41 percent think it will be good.
Sixty percent of voters think that the law is likely to increase the federal deficit – a claim Democrats dispute – while only 19 percent think it won’t increase the deficit. Voters are skeptical of the claims of Democrats regarding the bill’s budgetary impact, with 81 percent thinking that the plan’s real cost will be higher than the one predicted by the Congressional Budget Office.

By Nick Fierstone-Jones and Jonathan BreeneRead more article The report also warned of a slowdown in the pace of global crop production.
The report showed that the world’s crops have already fallen off the world stage and that there was a worrying gap between the levels of food production needed to meet growing global demand and the availability of land to grow them.
It said that in 2015-16, there were 3.3 billion hectares of land available for cultivation and more than three billion hectares available for production.
Agriculture production, the report said, was projected to reach 6.5 billion hectares by 2025-26, a fall of more than 40 per cent from the previous year.
It warned that the rise in global food prices was likely to lead to further declines in the supply of agricultural land and the cost of crop production, which would lead to higher food prices.
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) said the report showed how the “dying of the American dream” was being reversed.
Its chief economist, Olivier Planchard, said: “It’s an alarming report that underscores that the food crisis is reaching critical mass and is going to be a crisis for decades to come.”
The report also highlighted the need to take urgent measures to ensure a safe food supply in the future, and called for a more inclusive global food system.
“Achieving food security for all, not just those at the top, is a matter of life and death for millions of people in the world today,” the report concluded.

The Gambia has registered 22 new positive cases of COVID-19, bringing the total to 3, 765; the 210th COVID-19 situation report reveals.
Over the past years, the villagers have been in dispute over alkaloship and the construction of a new mosque in the village. The dispute led to a fight in which many people sustained injuries and more than 30 people were arrested by the Bansang police earlier this year.
In October last year, more than 30 people, including women and their suckling babies were earlier arrested by police in Bansang and detained for 24 hours before releasing some and charging twelve for their involvement in the dispute that led to injuries.
Magistrate Jabang acquitted and discharged the twelve people on the basis that the officials who should have been handling the case have moved from the area while some of them are on university program. He said one of them is preparing to go to Darfur for a mission.
He said he had travelled from Basse to Bansang on two occasions, wasting government resources while the case did not proceed. "Also, majority of the people involved in the case are farmers," he said.
Baldeh Kunda family, who were represented by lawyer Babadinding Jobarteh said they were not satisfied with the way the case was handled, saying there were no charges levied against the offenders.
Last week, the National Council of Elders which was established to lead social issues in communities led the alkaloship dispute settlement negotiation in Sareh Debbo village.
Gambia Labour Congress Workers (GLCW) and its affiliated unions have called on the government to support its citizens, during the course of the state of public emergency in The Gambia due to coronavirus.

Azad Jammu and Kashmir President Sardar Masood Khan has said the report of the European Parliament’s Research Service effectively highlights the horrendous Indian actions in occupied Kashmir and the worst discriminatory treatment towards the Indian Muslims.
Commenting on the report, he said that Jammu and Kashmir state is a disputed territory and the determination of its future destiny in accordance with the relevant UN resolutions is still pending.
Sardar Masood Khan said the international community instead of mere expressing concern over India’s unlawful actions in Kashmir should play its role in resolving this issue which has remained unresolved for the last more than 70 years.
He said that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is attempting to change the demography of occupied Kashmir on the pattern of Israel, but the Kashmiri people have rejected such moves.

Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi has said that their team is just as good as the Indian World Twenty20 team.
Afridi, who recently played in Bangladesh and led Pakistan to a thrilling victory against archrivals India during the Asia Cup, said that their team had just returned from Bangladesh and therefore they should take advantage of it.
According to the Express Tribune, Afridi said that even though the Indian team was strong, they have not been performing well given their recent performances.
The all-rounder further said that the team should make lesser mistakes for better results and they need to put in a lot of hard work for the World Twenty20, the report added.
'Pakistan has 'good' chances of winning World T20: Mahmood
Meanwhile, former cricketer Azhar Mahmood has rated Pakistan's chances highly for winning the World Twenty20 tournament, dismissing critics' writing off the team as a no-show in the mega event.
Mahmood, who played 21 Tests and 142 ODIs, decided to move to the United Kingdom to play county cricket and look for opportunities around the globe and has played in a variety of T20 competitions around the world such as the IPL, Ram Slam T20, Big Bash League, Bangladesh Premier League, Caribbean Premier League and others
According to www.PakPassion.net, Mahmood said that Pakistan have 'good and bright' chances of winning the tournament, adding that the fact they recently played in Bangladesh in the Asia Cup will work in their favour.
However, Mahmood said that the team needs to play disciplined cricket, adding that they will have to improve on the way they bowled in the 50-over format in the Asia Cup as they mostly depend on their bowling to win games.
Mahmood also said that he believes in general, the Asian teams have a very good chance of winning the World T20 tournament given the similar conditions.

Union Jal Shakti Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat on Friday said deceptive acts of China are being condemned all over the world.
"This is the result of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's diplomatic relations due to which the country had earlier cornered Pakistan at the global stage," he said.
"The people of India have the ability to give a befitting reply to China within two minutes," he said. "The boycott of Chinese goods has started on its own," Shekhawat said in a statement.
The Union minister addressed a virtual rally with public representatives and local body leaders on Friday.
He also said India has established "a leading position in the world in the control and combat of COVID-19 under the leadership of the prime minister".
Shekhawat said BJP workers of Rajasthan have proved that they are always at the forefront. They are providing more relief material and equipment as social service than the Congress government of the state, he said.
Former minister Srichand Kripalani said the present Congress government is treating the people of the state with "disrespect". The state government discontinued the Annapurna scheme launched under the BJP rule, he said.
He said that if the chief minister could have carried out the work done by the previous government properly, the citizens would have got ample relief during the coronavirus period. Nevertheless, BJP workers have done their duty by providing human service, food, sanitizer, masks to the public on the streets, Kripalani said.

German police said more than 120 officers were injured and 86 demonstrators were detained during leftist riots in the German capital which police called “the most aggressive and violent protests in the last five years”.
Berlin police said in a statement on Sunday that protesters destroyed cars and attacked officers, throwing bottles, cobblestones and fireworks. Only one of the police officers required treatment at a hospital. It was not immediately clear how many rioters were injured.
About 3,500 protesters participated in the rallies, which started on Saturday evening and lasted until early on Sunday.

Around 1,800 police officers were called in to monitor the protesters.


(MENAFN- UkrinForm) U.S. President Joe Biden called on Republicans in Congress to abandon political squabbles and pass a large-scale request for supplemental funding for national security, including assistance to Ukraine.
He stated this in a special address on Wednesday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“This cannot wait,” Joe Biden said, adding that Congress should approve additional funding for Ukraine before going on holiday vacation.
He emphasized that the Republicans in Congress, who are blocking the assistance package, are“willing to give Putin the greatest gift he could hope for and abandon our global leadership”. Read also:

He expressed the opinion that Republicans believe they can achieve their goals without any bipartisan compromise.
He emphasized that this will not work, and Ukraine, which is losing people on the battlefield, should not suffer because of such an approach. Biden said that he is ready to make "significant compromises" regarding changes in border policy, admitting that the system applied in the United States does not work as it should. However, the president expects that the Republicans will go for that compromise.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, the Democrats in the U.S. Senate presented a bill providing for about $111 billion, which corresponds to the supplemental funding request filed by President Joe Biden and includes assistance to Ukraine and Israel, as well as measures aimed at protecting the southern border of the U.S.

US police officials say at least 19 people, including two children, have been shot at a Mother’s Day parade in the US city of New Orleans.
According to the Associated Press, Police Superintendent Ronal Serpas said that the shooting happened about 2 p.m. Sunday at the intersection of Frenchmen and Villere Streets in the city’s 7th Ward.
Police said the two the children — a boy and a girl both aged 10 — suffered graze wounds, but their wounds were not life-threatening. Ten men and seven women were among the victims.
Serpas said police believe three suspects were involved in the shooting but did know what sparked the shooting.
A $2,500 cash reward has been offered to information leading to the arrest and indictment of those responsible.
The FBI said that there was no indication that the shooting was an act of terrorism.
According to police, there were about 200 people in the area when gunfire erupted.

THE continued discrimination against former prisoners has raised worry among Lusaka residents who have called on Government through the Ministry of Home Affairs and other civil society organizations to ensure that they start creating more skills training centres to empower ex-prisoners.
The residents said that there was need for prisoners to have a place to start afresh once they had served their time in prison.
They felt that former prisoners were often stigmatized by society who tended to judge them on their past deeds.
Kennedy Kanjela,a concerned resident, said that discrimination against ex-convicts may force them to go back to crime.
Mr. Kanjela said that ex-convicts deserved to be given a chance so that they were able to better their lives and do something useful and positive for the benefit of society.
He said the creation of skills training centres would enable ex- prisoners to do productive work with their lives once released from prison. Mr. Kanjela said that it was important that ex-prisoners were regarded as people who could contribute to success of the country. He said every prisoner paid for their mistakes when they serve time in prison and were only released after the State was convinced that the person had changed and regretted their action.
Mr. Kanjela said that the tendency of segregating ex-prisoners just because they had a prison record should not be condoned because they were still human beings and had as much rights as every other person.
“We need to learn and embrace ex-prisoners. We need to show them that they can be better people for their families and for society; we need to support them through their journey of recovery even as they struggle to start from scratch,’’ he said.
And Royce Mbewe, another concerned resident, said that having more skills training centres would help ex-prisoners to empower themselves without depending on other people or fall back into their old bad habits.
Ms. Mbewe said prisons lacked recreation centres and other facilities where people were given an opportunity to re-start their lives.
