Evening daily Imphal Times Regd.No. MANENG /2013/51092 Volume 7, Issue 174, Friday, January 24, 2020 Maliyapham Palcha kumsing 3418 Rs. 2/- By Oken Jeet Sandham Kohima , Jan 24 The Indo-Naga political negotiation has been successfully concluded on the 31st of October 2019 at Delhi. The Government, however, could not announce the outcome of it. But the biggest surprise was they announced that the final settlement of the Naga issue would only be arrived at after consulting with Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Manipur and also after consulting with stakeholders. Therefore, when Governor RN Ravi delivered his maiden Address to the 13th Nagaland Legislative Assembly on January 17, 2020, we expected that some fine-tuned modalities would be highlighted in the Address for resolving the protracted Indo- Naga political issue. Surprisingly, the Address has not laid out any progress of the status of consultation with Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Manipur or stakeholders. It has been nearly three months since the conclusion No timeframe for solution of Naga Issue in Governor Ravi’s Address to Assembly of talk. The people have every right to know the progress of consultation as it will culminate in reaching a final settlement of the issue. But they are still kept in suspense. However, if one carefully examines Governor Ravi’s remark in his Address, an early settlement to the Naga issue would depend on the unity of all the various organizations. Then the veiled warning has come, “If we fail this time, then we will be missing a golden opportunity.” Will the Indo-Naga issue remain unresolved or will the Autonomous Councils be granted to the Nagas of Arunachal Pradesh and Manipur and then what will be the arrangement for the Nagas of Assam? What will the Government do with the demand of ENPO with regard to a separate frontier Nagaland State or instead grant them an Autonomous Council? Will there be an increase of a Lok Sabha Seat in Nagaland making a total of two or will a Bi-cameral system be given to the State? News has been appearing in mass media ever since the Indo-Naga political negotiation was over that the Government would be working out to grant the aforementioned demands as part of resolving the Naga issue. From a Correspondent By Raju Vernekar None of the telecom companies paid the adjusted gross revenue (AGR) as directed by the Supreme Court, even as deadline to make payment of pending dues of Rs.1.47-lakh crore by over 15 companies expired on Thursday. “ Bharti Airtel”, “ Vodafone Idea” and “Teleservices” have filed modification pleas in the court seeking negotiations and fixation of schedules for payment of statutory dues by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), which has sought immediate payment of dues including licence fees and spectrum usage charges (SUC) Stand off between DOT and telecom operators over AGR continues calculated on the basis of AGR. The state-owned RailTel Corp also has filed a petition in the SC. In response to the pleas filed by the telecom operators, the SC on Tuesday said that it will take up the modification petitions filed by Vodafone Idea, Bharti Airtel, and Tata Teleservices, on giving them more time to pay off AGR related dues. The matter was mentioned before a bench headed by Chief Justice SA Bobde, who said it will list the fresh pleas “sometime in next week” before the same bench which had heard the earlier petition in the case. The telecom operators in their pleas requested for an open court hearing with regard to working out fresh schedule of payment of their dues. Responding to the request, the Chief Justice of India, said that “open court or in-chamber hearing will be decided by the bench concerned”. Earlier on January 16, a bench comprising Justices Arun Mishra, S.Abdul Nazeer and M.R.Shah, had dismissed review petitions filed by these companies challenging SC’s order dated 24 October, 2019. Holding that interest and penalty have rightly been levied on the telecom companies, SC had specified that there should not be any further litigation on the matter. As per the SC order of October 24, telecom operators were required to pay up their dues by January 23. For Bharti Airtel, dues are around Rs 35,586 crore (Rs 21,682 crore as license fee (LF) and Rs 13,904 crore as SUC) and for Vodafone Idea the dues amount to Rs 53,038 crore(Rs 28,309 crore in LF and Rs 24,730 crore in SUC). Tata Teleservices, which has sold its consumer mobility business to “Airtel”, faces dues of Rs.13,823 crore. As per the affidavit filed earlier in the SC, by DOT, the amount is also due from: Reliance Communications-Rs 16,456.47 crore, BSNL-Rs 2,098.72 crore, and MTNL-Rs 2,537.48 crore. After the telecom sector was liberalised under the National Telecom Policy 1994, licenses were issued to companies in return for a fixed license fee. In 1999, the government gave an option to the licensees to migrate to the revenue sharing fee model, under which the they were required to share a percentage of their AGR with the government as LF and SUC. AGR is computed after allowing for certain deductions spelt out in these license agreements. The LF and SUC were set at 8 per cent and between 3-5 per cent of AGR respectively, based on the agreement. However in 2005, the Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) challenged the government’s definition for AGR calculation and in 2015 and the Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal (TDSAT) stayed the case in favour of telecom companies and held that AGR includes all receipts, except capital receipts and revenue from non-core sources such as rent, profit on the sale of fixed assets, dividend, interest and miscellaneous income. However on 24 October, 2019, SC set aside TDSAT’s order and upheld the definition of AGR as stipulated by the DoT. In the meanwhile DOT has served notices to some of the non-telecom companies with telecom licences, including public sector units such as GAIL India, Power Grid Corp. of India Ltd (PGCIL) and Oil India Ltd (OIL)(Rs. Rs 48,000 crore), demanding nearly Rs 3 lakh crore. They are also likely to file separate review petitions. OIL uses an optic fibre network for internal communications. IGAR (South) Imphal Jan 24 In the spirit of bonhomie and comraderie, Moreh Battalion of 26 Sector Assam Rifles under the aegis of HQ IGAR (South) deployed at Integrated Check Post, Moreh decided to share their Mid Day meal with the poor daily wage workers who earns their livelihood by doing menial jobs everyday along the Indo Myanmar Border. The Integrated Check Post Commander decided to prepare a meal and have lunch with them to make their day a better one. During the meal the workers shared their experience and hardship faced on a daily basis for livelihood in the bordering town. Due to lack of organized industries and employment, majority of population depends on mere labour work and fall prey to drug smuggling activities. A total of 20 daily wage workers and troops of Moreh battalion shared meal and camaraderie with each other assured them 24 x 7 vigil and security at International border. Now the question is who has been doing the consultations with Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Manipur and the stakeholders after the Indo- Naga political negotiation was over. It appears that there is no transparency in the process. One is still worried about the fate of the successfully concluded talk. It is also interesting to see how Governor Ravi will remain as Interlocutor for the Naga talk after the successful conclusion of the talk. Technically, his job as Interlocutor for the Naga talk is over ever since the talk has been successfully concluded on the 31st of October 2019 at Delhi. When Prime Minister Modi asked Ravi to conclude the talk within three months, he met NSCN (IM) collective leaderships. Later, he criticized them for adopting the procrastinating attitude over symbolic issues of a separate Naga Flag and constitution to prolong the issue. Whatever the case may be, after the talk has been successfully concluded, will the Government still blame NPGs if the solution to the Naga issue is not forthcoming? Ravi, representing the Government of India, successfully signed the Framework Agreement with NSCN (IM) on August 3, 2015, in presence of Prime Minister Modi, Home Minister Rajnath Singh and National Security Adviser, Ajit Doval among others at Delhi. He also successfully brought the WC of NNPGs to the negotiating table after signing an agreement with them in 2017. Finally, he successfully concluded the negotiation with them on the 31st of October 2019 at Delhi meeting the deadline set by Modi. Therefore, with the unparalleled experience he had after dealing with the Naga issue and meeting with various Naga civil societies, tribal hohos, and other mass- based organizations, it is generally believed that he would be able to resolve the Naga issue. Unfortunately, his maiden Address to the 13th Nagaland Legislative Assembly has not reflected the timeframe for the solution.
