Kashmir issue should be resolved as per UN resolutions: China

[ad_1]
Islamabad: China said on Saturday that the Kashmir dispute between India and Pakistan was left over from history and should be resolved as per the UN resolutions while avoiding any unilateral action.
Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang arrived in Pakistan on Friday for a two-day visit, which is his first trip to the country. He co-chaired a meeting with his Pakistani counterpart Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Saturday.
The two sides issued a joint statement at the conclusion of the 4th round of the ‘Pakistan-China Strategic Dialogue’ in Islamabad.

According to the statement, the entire range of bilateral relations and cooperation, including in political, strategic, economic, defence security, education and cultural domains was reviewed while regional and global issues of mutual interest were also discussed during the dialogue.
It stated that both sides underscored the importance of maintaining peace and stability in South Asia and the need for the resolution of all outstanding disputes.
“The Chinese side reiterated that the Kashmir dispute was left over from history between India and Pakistan and should be properly and peacefully resolved in accordance with the UN Charter, relevant Security Council resolutions and bilateral agreements.
“Both sides opposed any unilateral actions that further complicate the already volatile situation,” according to the statement.
India has previously criticised China and Pakistan for their unwarranted references to the Indian Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

“We have consistently rejected such statements and all parties concerned are well aware of our clear position on these matters. The Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir and the Union Territory of Ladakh are and always will be integral and inalienable parts of India. No other country has locus standi to comment on the same,” the Ministry of External Affairs said last year when the two close allies mentioned the Kashmir issue in a joint statement.
China and Pakistan also agreed on continuing their enduring support on issues concerning each other’s core national interests, the joint statement said.
“Reaffirming Pakistan’s special place in China’s neighbourhood diplomacy, the Chinese side reiterated its firm support for Pakistan’s sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity, as well as its unity, stability, and economic prosperity,” it read.
The Pakistani side reiterated its commitment to the “One China” policy as well as its firm support to China on all core issues of its national interest, including Taiwan, Xinjiang, Tibet, Hong Kong and the South China Sea.
“Reaffirming their commitment to high-quality development of CPEC, both sides noted with satisfaction the steady progress of CPEC projects,” according to the statement.
Both sides reiterated that CPEC is an open and inclusive platform for win-win cooperation and invited third parties to maximise benefits from it.
The two sides reviewed the progress of various projects at Gwadar and reiterated their resolve to turn the region into a high-quality port and a hub for trade and connectivity.
The two foreign ministers underlined that Pakistan-China friendship was a historic reality and a conscious choice of the two nations, the statement said.
The Pakistani side expressed gratitude to the Chinese side for its economic and financial support and its generous assistance package for post-flood reconstruction and rehabilitation.
The two sides reiterated their firm resolve to counter terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, it said.
The Chinese side appreciated the measures taken by Pakistan to ensure enhanced security of Chinese projects, personnel and institutions in Pakistan, as well as the steps are taken to apprehend and bring to justice the perpetrators targeting Chinese nationals in Dasu, Karachi and other attacks, it added.
The two sides agreed to further build on the cooperation in security and counter-terrorism domains.
The two sides underscored the need for the international community to provide continued assistance and support to Afghanistan including through unfreezing of the country’s overseas financial assets.

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: The Bharat Rashtra Samithi’s (BRS) working president and state IT minister KT Rama Rao on Sunday informed the upcoming constituency-level meetings, held for the first time, will witness the proposal of six political resolutions on important issues.
Ahead of the BRS constituency-level meetings on April 25, KTR held a teleconference with party leaders to discuss the agenda and lay out detailed plans to make it a success.
Providing suggestions and instructions, KTR said the six political resolutions will discuss Agriculture, Welfare, Palle Pragathi-Pattana Pragathi, Education-Employment, BJP’s failures, and local issues.

He directed the party cadre should involve different age groups to spread awareness by discussing the progress achieved in farming through various state government welfare programmes, and irrigation projects. “Along with Rythu Bandhu, Rythu Bima schemes which became role models for the entire country, the Centre’s anti-farmer policies should also be discussed,” he said
“The resolution on Welfare will cover the impact of these schemes on different groups, including women, people with disabilities, and those receiving Aasara pension for the elderly,” he further added.
KTR said, “Had Prime Minister Modi fulfilled his promise of creating 2 crore jobs annually, there would be no need for BJP to hold an unemployment march.”
He said that detailed information on the state government’s programmes related to primary and higher education will also be provided.
Around 4 lakh leaders of the party from village to constituency level will participate in the meeting. It will be attended by 3,000 to 3,500 party activists in each constituency.

The upcoming constituency-level meetings will serve as a platform to sound the bugle for the upcoming assembly elections.

Property Tax: Municipalities Passing Resolutions To Adopt Decision

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Days after the government announced levying of property tax in Jammu & Kashmir, the administration on Wednesday said that the Municipal Corporations and Committees have started passing the resolution to adopt the decision and that the transparency system in the Union territory has no comparison with rest of the country.
In an exclusive chat with the news agency KNO, Divisional Commissioner, Kashmir, V K Bidhuri, said that the Municipal Corporations and committees require resources to run the affairs, but presently these corporations and committees are generating only 10-15 per cent of the revenue and are dependant for rest of the resources. “To ensure better facilities, every municipality requires resources and property tax is the best decision to generate revenue for the wellbeing of the people,” he said.
He added that J&K is the last in the country where the property tax has been imposed, but the government decided to go with a minimum tax. “The rural areas are already out while in urban areas, Agricultural land and other falling under master plan are also exempted,” he said while appealing people not to pay heed to rumours.
“Tax is not being imposed on any individual but it is being levied on a property and people having property on less than 1000 sq ft are already exempted,” he said while replying to a query.
He further said that out of total 5.20 lakh residential houses, 40% among them have been exempted as the properties have come up on less than 1000 sq ft. “The tax amount is different in different areas and districts and is being decided as per the circle rate,” he said.
He also said that after the decision was taken in this regard; the municipalities have started passing the resolution to adopt the decision.
He said that the tax amount will be used only for the developmental purpose in the respective municipalities and added that the tax will have to remain the same for three years and will be reviewed after that as per the circle rate.
The Div Com said that there is no comparison with J&K’s transparency system with any part of the country. “The transparency system in J&K cannot be found anywhere in the country where even the photos of developmental works are being uploaded,” he said.

Asked about a complete shift to online mode, the Divisional Commissioner, Kashmir, said that the process has already been done and every work is being done through online mode now.
About the smart city project works, he said that the deadline has been squeezed to April and the works are going on at a rapid pace during day as well as night. “The people will face inconvenience, but the works will be completed on April 15 while carpeting and other related things will be done by April 30th,” he said.
Asked about the encroachment drive, he said that retrieving encroached land is their regular activity and the government is responsible for it. “We are duty bound to carry out our encroachment drive for the people. We are re-strategizing it at present, but the poor will not be touched,” he said.
Asked about the completion of installation of smart meters across Kashmir, he said that the process will be completed in next two years. (KNO)

Three resolutions to be taken up at Congress plenary today

[ad_1]
Raipur: Three resolutions — political, economic and international — will be taken up at the Congress plenary session here on Saturday.
The session will commence by an opening address by party president Mallikarjun Kharge after which it will debate on issues put forth by the subject committee.
Former Congress President Sonia Gandhi in her capacity as chairman of the parliamentary party will also address the plenary.
The party will also debate the Constitutional resolution and amend its Constitution to give proper representation to the SCs, STs, OBCs, minorities, women, and those below 50 years in the Congress Working Committee — the party’s top decision-making body.
In one of the proposals made at the Udaipur ‘Chintan Shivir’ in May last year, the party will make these provisions by amending 26 articles and 32 rules.
If the proposed amendments are passed in the plenary, then former party chiefs Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi will become lifelong CWC members, along with former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
General Secretar Jairam Ramesh said that the most important proposal is to provide 50 per cent reservations in the Working Committee for SC/STs, OBCs, minorities, women and youth.
