Dear all,
Welcome.
Welcome.
Polio free: The visitors to Pakistan would have to take polio vaccination in India. Without it, Pakistani childrens would also not be allowed to enter India. Recently, India had been declared Polio free country. But due to its being in Afghanistan, Pakistan & Nigeria, it poses danger to six countries for reoccurence. It includes India too.
The vaccination dose is made compulsory to people visiting India or going from India. Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, Nigeria, & Pakistan are those six countries. People coming to India from these countries would have to take Polio vaccination doses. It is to note that Polio is spreading in Western Asian & African countries again.
Scientists murder: As Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flies to Washington - due to arrive on Sunday (March 2), to prepare for talks with President Barack Obama at the White House on Monday - it's clear that there are several points of friction between Israel and the United States.
The two countries are allies, but their leaders often differ on the details of key issues: Israel's peace talks with the Palestinians, America's nuclear talks with Iran, how to approach political turmoil in Egypt, what might be done to limit Syria's horrible civil war, and a broader issue of whether the Middle East sees President Obama as a powerful, influential leader.
Recently, as I sought to update a book I co-wrote about the history of Israel's intelligence agencies, sources close to them revealed that they felt pressure from the Obama Administration - more than a hint - to stop carrying out assassinations inside Iran.
Although Israel has never acknowledged it, the country's famed espionage agency - the Mossad - ran an assassination campaign for several years aimed at Iran's top nuclear scientists. The purpose was to slow the progress made by Iran, which Israel feels certain is aimed at developing nuclear weapons; and to deter trained and educated Iranians from joining their country's nuclear program.
At least five Iranian scientists were murdered, most of them by bombs planted on their cars as they drove to work in the morning. Remarkably, the Israeli assassins were never caught - obviously having long-established safe houses inside Iran - although several Iranians who may have helped the Mossad were arrested and executed.
In addition to strong signals from the Obama Administration that the U.S. did not want Israel to continue the assassinations, Mossad officials concluded that the campaign had gotten too dangerous. They did not want their best combatants - Israel's term for its most talented and experienced spies - captured and hanged.
President Obama - much to the discomfort of Israeli officials - is pursuing negotiations with Iran. The United States is one of the P5+1 nations, continuing to talk with the Iranians about rolling back some of their nuclear potential.
Sources told us that Netanyahu has now ordered the Mossad to focus on hunting - inside Iran and elsewhere - for evidence that the Iranians are cheating on the commitments they made in their interim agreement with the P5+1 last November.
Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Obama will also discuss progress - said by all concerned to be limited, but not non-existent - in Israel's talks with the Palestinian Authority which began last year. Secretary of State John Kerry has had many frustrations in his chosen role as mediator: not least, the harsh criticism of Kerry voiced by some members of Netanyahu's coalition government who distrust the peace process and feel that giving up any of the West Bank would be needlessly dangerous for Israel.

Mars orbiter: Mid-course correction manoeuvre is likely in early April
All health parameters of the Mars Orbiter Mission are normal and a mid-course correction manoeuvre is likely to be carried out in early April, according to S. Arunan, Project Director, Mangalyaan.
“The second of the four trajectory correction manoeuvres will be made, probably on April 9, to make minor changes that may be required owing to the solar radiation pressure on the spacecraft,” he told journalists here on Saturday, on the sidelines of Probe-2014, a symposium at the National Institute of Technology, Tiruchi (NITT).
The mission boasted several new technologies, and the onboard autonomy was an important feature. Since there would be a communication delay in view of the long distance involved, the autonomy enabled the spacecraft to take decisions on its own. This option could be incorporated in the future missions of the ISRO as it would help to cut ground complexities and improve the reliability of satellites, he said.
The success of Mars Orbiter Mission, he said, enhanced the image and brand of the country in space technology. The ISRO proposed to bring India’s science laboratories under a wider umbrella to develop scientific payloads for more elaborate studies and investigations on planets, even possibly for a landing mission.
Later, in a presentation at the symposium, hosted by the Electronics and Communication Engineering Association of the NITT, Mr. Arunan said the Mars Orbiter Mission proved the country’s capabilities in deep space communication, navigation, mission planning and management.
Presiding over the inaugural ceremony, NITT Director S. Sundarrajan said that under the changing educational scenario, innovation and inspirational teaching was the key. Competencies had to be shared among institutions and the curriculum must meet industry requirements.

Original_app_mssg(1) Sahara chief's arrest
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday accepted the apology of Sahara chief Subrata Roy for not appearing last Wednesday.
Accepting Roy's unconditional apology, SC said, " we respected you; you failed to respect us."
Earlier, a protester threw ink on Sahara Group chairman Subrata Roy as he reached the Supreme Court today to appear in a contempt case arising out of non refund of Rs 20,000 crore to investors.
The attacker, who was later identified as Manoj Sharma, managed to get close to Roy despite a heavy police presence and then threw ink on him. Sharma, a lawyer by profession, hails from Gwalior and has now been detained.
Sahara chief was last night taken by road to New Delhi for production before the apex court.
Roy surrendered last week on Friday after that he was formally arrested by the UP police which he had evaded for two days.
The Supreme Court had ordered his arrest after he failed to appear before the court in a contempt case for non-appearance before it.
The Sahara chief was lodged in a guest house of the state forest department at Kukrail in Lucknow after the UP police was directed by a local court on February 28 to keep him in custody till March 4 when he will be produced before the Supreme Court.
Chief Judicial Magistrate Anand Kumar Yadav had directed the UP police to keep him in custody till 2 PM on March 4 and ensure that he is by then produced before the apex court.
Police had moved an application before the CJM seeking Roy's custody instead of transit remand and his counsel V K Shahi also did not oppose it.
The order to arrest Roy was issued on February 26 for his failure to appear before the apex court in a contempt case arising out of non refund of Rs 20,000 crore to investors by two of his companies.
