NEW DELHI: A bitter turf tusslebetween the Delhi government andCentre escalated on Tuesday withthe AAP administration trans-ferring the home secretary andrefusing to allow a senior policeofficer appointed by the lieutenantgovernor to take charge as chief of the city’s anti-corruption branch.

Sources said while bureaucratDharam Pal was ordered to moveout by the government, he contin-ued to discharge his duties as L-GNajeeb Jung termed the directivenull and void.

The fresh confrontation wastriggered by Jung’s decision onMonday to appoint Delhi Policejoint commissioner MK Meenaas head of the ACB in place ofadditional commissioner ofpolice SS Yadav, who was hand-picked by Kejriwal in April.

“What is the conspiracy bycreating a new post of joint com-missioner in the ACB and appoint-ing your favourite officers?” dep-uty CM Manish Sisodia tweeted,though experts said in the past fiveyears at least three joint CP-rankDelhi Police officers served as thehead of the anti-corruption body.

The power struggle is rootedin Delhi’s unique position as a union territory functioning asthe Capital, with the state govern-ment having no say over severalkey departments and agencies that function under the lieutenant gov-ernor, who reports to the Centre.

Singapore saysMaggi made in India good to eatPress Trust of India■ [email protected]

SINGAPORE: Singapore hasallowed the sale of Maggi noo-dles manufactured in India aftersafety tests by food authoritiesthere found the popular snack does not pose any health risk toconsumers.

The Agri-Food and VeterinaryAuthority of Singapore informedlocal importers that sale of thebrand’s noodles from India maybe resumed, The Straits Timesreported.

The authority had last weekadvised importers to withholdsales while it conducted lab tests— following the ban in Indiaafter higher-than-permissiblelevels of lead and the presenceof flavour-enhancer MSG weredetected in the popular snack.

The authority, which clearedthe India-made noodles onMonday night, also tested Maggi produced in other countries andthose results also came out clean,the report said.

Singapore has imported “asmall amount” of the brand’snoodles manufactured in India.

NCR EXPANDS TO INCLUDE THREENEW DISTRICTSHT Correspondent■ [email protected]

NEW DELHI: The National CapitalRegion just got bigger with theinclusion of three new districts, Muzaffarnagar in Uttar Pradeshand Karnal and Jind in Haryana.

The decision aimed at decongest-ing Delhi — bursting at the seamswith a population of 16 million — was taken Tuesday at a meetingof the National Capital RegionPlanning Board chaired by urbandevelopment minister M VenkaiahNaidu. With this, the total area hasswelled to a little over 54,000 squaremetres, making it the largest nation-al capital region in the world.

The NCR now makes up 1.6% ofIndia’s land area, covering a totalof 22 districts —13 in Haryana,seven in UP and two in Rajasthan.

In another key move, Haryanaagreed to a 500-metre buffer zone forthe ecologically-sensitive Mangargrove in Faridabad, dumping anearlier proposal to leave a mere60-metre no-construction zone.

Kejriwal’s law minister Tomarheld over fake degree, resignsWAR IN DELHI AAP govt cries politicalconspiracy, says cops used force; policechief says all procedures were followedHT Correspondent■ [email protected]

NEW DELHI: Delhi law ministerJitender Singh Tomar quit onTuesday after being arrested forallegedly using fake degrees toenrol as an advocate, further sour-ing the Centre’s already strainedties with the AAP which called itan “Emergency-like situation”.

The Tri Nagar legislator senthis resignation through his law-yer after being charged withcheating, forgery and criminalconspiracy, saying he didn’t wantthe image of the party to suffer.

“JS Tomar put in his papersa while back. Chief ministerArvind Kejriwal has acceptedthe resignation and it will be sentto the L-G tomorrow,” deputy CMManish Sisodia told reporters onTuesday after a late-night hud-dle of senior Aam Aadmi Partyleaders at his residence.

The 48-year-old was sent to fourdays of police custody on a May 11complaint by the city’s bar coun-cil that said Tomar had submit-ted forged academic documentsincluding mark sheets, a BSCdegree, provisional documents andhis law degree to the body in 2010.

City police commis-

sioner BS Bassi defended thearrest, saying all procedures werefollowed but a livid Aam AadmiParty alleged Tomar was the vic-tim of a political conspiracy andquestioned the need for the movewhen the case was being heardby the Delhi high court.

“Tomar was arrested as if hewas a mafia. Was he runningaway? Did he set off a bomb? Whatwas the emergency, especiallywhen a scam is being reopened?This is an attempt to teach AAPa lesson,” said a furious Sisodia.

Sources said Delhi Jal Boardvice-chairman Kapil Mishra,Greater Kailash MLA SaurabhBhardwaj and former law min-ister and Malviya Nagar MLASomnath Bharti were the front-runners to replace Tomar, whobecame the first Delhi ministerto be arrested. A section of theparty, however, feels the portfolioshould be looked after by Kejriwal.

The arrest is the latest in a string of controversies engulf-ing the young party that rode a tidal wave of support to victoryin Delhi but has lurched fromcrisis to crisis since, with each episode chipping away at itscredibility.

NEW DELHI: Thirty minutes, from‘insertion’ to ‘kill’ to ‘out’. Forty of India’s toughest fighting men,commandos from the elite 21Para (Special Force) Regiment,in two teams. Russian-made Mi-35attack helicopters of the IndianAir Force. Two rebel camps, four km deep in Myanmar. Bothdestroyed with surgical precisionand extreme prejudice.

Indian paratroopers conduct-ed cross-border strikes on twoinsurgent camps in Myanmarearly Tuesday, inflicting “signifi-cant casualties’’ five days after 18soldiers were killed in Manipurin the worst attack on securityforces in 30 years.

Tuesday’s operation wasn’tjust about revenge or hot pursuit;the strikes were pre-emptive. “Inthe course of the last few days, credible and specific intelligencewas received about furtherattacks that were being plannedwithin our territory,’’ a statementreleased by the army said.

Giving details of the opera-tion, the army said it had inflict-ed “significant casualties’’ but didn’t give a precise number. Sources said at least 22 militantswere killed in the twin strikeson camps located well withinMyanmar territory.

A similar number were said tobe injured, and the others werescattered by the ferocity of theattack that involved use of the machine guns mounted on theMi-35s. These guns fire the heavyand incredibly powerful 12.7 mmround at the mind-boggling rateof about 4,000 rounds a minute, what is referred to as ‘hosepipe’in army slang. Little survives such firepower, and in Myanmarearly on Tuesday, little did.

T h e r a re c ro s s - b o rd e r

strike was supervised at thehighest levels, HT has learnt.National security adviser AKDoval and defence ministerManohar Parrikar monitoredthe operation that began at 3am.“Myanmar was informed aboutthe plans but the strikes at twolocations were conducted by ourarmy,’’ an official said.

Doval, who dropped out ofPrime Minister Narendra Modi’sweekend tour of Bangladesh atthe last minute, Parrikar andarmy chief Gen Dalbir Singh,who put off a visit of the UKfollowing the Manipur ambush,coordinated the operation.

“The project to be com-pleted by 2012-13 has stillnot been completed,” said theaudit. The auditors also saidit showed that the CPCB wasnot monitoring the progressof the project on a regularbasis.

The audit – which wasdisclosed under the Rightto Information law — alsoblamed the CPCB for fail-ing to impose a penalty onanother central governmentorganisation, the Centre for Development of AdvancedComputing (C-DAC), for fail-ing to prepare the software to implement the online airquality management systemfor urban areas on time.

With regard to setting upmonitoring stations in pol-luted industrial clusters, theaudit said the CPCB delayed release of funds to state gov-ernments for these.

Government sources admit-ted that had the project beenimplemented on time, theCPCB would have been ina better position to advisestate gover nments on airquality management. “TheCPCB would have identifiedcritically polluted areas inthe upcoming cities had theproject been executed,” a sen-ior government official said.

Najeeb Jungbacks Meena

On a day the city law min-ister was arrested followingaccusations of fraudulently obtaining a law degree, SK Jain,secretary and director of theAAP government’s vigilancedepartment, wrote to Meenaand urged him to return to

Delhi Police.“There is only one post of

an additional commissionerof police at the ACB which ispresently occupied. As there isno such sanctioned post, you cannot take charge or hold a non-existent post. I am there-fore directed to ask you torevert to Delhi Police,” he said.

Meena, however, defied thegovernment’s order. He wasspotted at the ACB headquar-ters in north Delhi throughoutthe day as he held meetingswith officers, including someDelhi Police inspectors who were transferred to the branchby the L-G on Monday.

“I joined the ACB on Mondaynight. I had a meeting with theofficers and will work to fightcorruption, as is the mandate of the ACB,” he told HT.

Later in the day, he sent a rejoinder to Jain, warning himof legal action if he interferedin the agency’s functioning.

“I am informing you that I am the head of the ACB andany such reference regarding a change is to be addressed to

However, some urban plan-ners were sceptical aboutgetting the desired results. They said the planning board,set up in the mid-1980s, hadfailed to achieve its mandateof ensuring planned and har-monious development in theregion.

Jung also rejected the transferof Dharam Pal, who issued theorder appointing Meena follow-ing the L-G’s directives.

Within minutes of the govern-ment’s relocation order, DharamPal’s deputy Alok Garg hadreleased a directive, withdraw-ing the instruction to appointMeena.

Jung’s office issued a rejoin-der to Garg and warned him of“appropriate action” if suchorders were issued without theL-G’s knowledge.

lite images of insurgent campswere shared with Myanmar. “One attack took place oppositeChassad in Manipur’s Ukhruldistrict, the other, opposite toNoklak in Nagaland’s Tuensangdistrict,” home ministry sourcessaid on condition of anonymity.

An ‘’immediate responsewas necessary’’ to counter

the assault being planned by“groups involved in earlierattacks on our security person-nel’’, the army said. The state-ment, however, didn’t say if the‘’significant casualties’’ includedthose responsible for the June 4Manipur attack.

The camp close to Manipurwas known to be a PeoplesLiberation Army, a Meitei outfit,base, sources said. Members ofthe Nationalist Socialist Councilof Nagaland (Khaplang) andother Meitei insurgent groupsalso camped there. Meitei arethe majority ethnic group inManipur, where several insur-gent outfits continue to opposethe state’s union with India.

The camp close to Noklakwas a Khaplang base, sourcessaid. “It is suspected that topleaders of the Khaplang factionincluding Starson Lamkang (theself-styled finance minister, or‘kilonser’) may have been at thecamp,” sources said. Lamkangis believed to be involved in theJune 4 ambush that was claimedby the NSCN (K). The outfit hadin March ended the ceasefirewith the Indian government.

Indicating that more strikescould be coming, the army’sstatement said they were intouch with the authorities inthe neighbouring country.

NEW DELHI: Nine days after thewife of an excise inspector andtheir two children were foundmurdered in their rented flat inwest Delhi’s Rama Park in UttamNagar, the police on Tuesdayclaimed to have solved the tri-ple murder case and arrestedtwo persons.

Investigators claim the triplemurder was an act of revenge bythe woman’s brother-in-law who was unhappy at her objecting tohis extra-marital affair with hislandlord’s daughter. The mainaccused, Deepak, was married to the deceased’s younger sisterMadhu.

The arrested persons havebeen identified as Rajesh,close friend of the deceased’sbrother-in-law, and his associ-ate Gulshan.

Deepak, prime accused in thecase, however, died under mys-terious circumstances. His body was found near railway tracks in Uttar Pradesh’s Saharanpuron June 6, six days after he bru-tally hacked his sister-in-law

Deepmala alias Deepa and her two children Saksham, 9, andVaishnavi, 6, to death, in theirthird floor flat in Uttam Nagar.

Deepandra Pathak, jointcommissioner (southwest),confirmed that Deepak used a leather knife used by cobblersfor slitting victims’ throat.

HT was the first to report about the use of a leather knifein the murders.

“Interrogation of Rajeshrevealed that he was aware ofDeepak’s crime as the latterhad narrated him the entiresequence of events,” saidPathak.

After killing the trio, Deepakallegedly removed a pair of earrings from Deepa’s ears and`3,000 in cash from her pursebefore fleeing the crime scene.

Kejriwal’s two-year-old outfitthat was born out of a national anti-corruption stir has beenlocked in a bitter tussle withlieutenant governor NajeebJung for the city’s adminis-trative control that has nearlyparalysed governance in theCapital.

The Delhi CM has repeat-edly accused the Centre oftrying to attempting a coup inthe Capital through the L-G-- who controls the crucialdepartments of police, landand services and reports to the Union home ministry.

Tomar’s troubles began inFebruary when a petition in thehigh court accused the ministerof using a fake undergraduatedegree to enrol as a law student-- corroborated in an RTI replyby the university that said hisdegree, mark sheet, and rollnumber were “completelyfabricated”. The bar councilinitiated an inquiry shortly

afterwards.In April , Bihar’s Tilka

Manjhi Bhagalpur University, from where Tomar claimed tohave obtained his law degree, told the court the provisionalcertificate was not “genuine”and didn’t exist in the officialrecords. A BJP leader has alsodragged Tomar to the court oncharges of lying in his electionnomination papers, an accu-sation that may cost the AAPlegislator his seat.
