NSF hails Nagaland cabinet decision on ILP implementation
Dimapur: The
Naga Students Federation
(NSF) Inner Line Regulation Commission (ILRC) on Thursday expressed its approval of the Nagaland cabinet's decision to establish an
enforcement directorate
aimed at stricter implementation of the Inner Line Permit (ILP) system.
In a release, the ILRC acknowledged past instances where committees were formed and public announcements had been made without significant follow-through.
The ILRC appreciated the govt's candid admission of its past ineffectiveness in enforcing the ILP, compared to neighbouring states like Mizoram. It reiterated the urgency and clarity of the memorandum submitted to the chief secretary on April 10.
"The need to address the contents of the memorandum is imminent and should not be delayed further," the NSF said.
However, the ILRC expressed its opinion that the govt's decision to visit neighbouring states, operating under the Bengal Eastern Frontier Regulation (BEFR), 1873, could lead to an unnecessary expenditure of time and resources. It argued that the visit conducted by the Kesonyu Committee in 2017 provided more than sufficient information, highlighting the valuable and practical recommendations made by that committee.

"Had the govt of the day taken them seriously and implemented those points, much progress would have been made," the ILRC said.
The ILRC also pointed out that the Alemtemshi Committee (2007) and the Senti Yanger Committee (2015) had previously submitted elaborate and well-considered recommendations that were "unfortunately shelved immediately upon submission."

'Muslim countries have 644 times amount of land controlled by Israel': US ambassador Huckabee on two-state solution; slams allies UK, Australia
US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee (Image: X) US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee suggested "Muslim countries" should give up some of their land to create a future Palestinian state. Speaking to the BBC, Huckabee said Muslim countries have 644 times more land than Israel. "So maybe, if there is such a desire for the Palestinian state, there would be someone who would say, we'd like to host it,' he said. Huckabee further called the idea of a two-state solution, where Israel and a future Palestinian state would exist side by side, 'an aspirational goal.' This idea is widely supported internationally, including by past US governments. The plan imagines a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza, with East Jerusalem as its capital. But in a different interview with Bloomberg, Huckabee said the US was no longer working toward creating an independent Palestinian state. Afterward, state department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce said that Huckabee was speaking for himself, and that the president sets US policy in the Middle East. When asked if the US now opposes a Palestinian state in the West Bank, Huckabee said,: "I wouldn't say there can never be, what I would say is that a culture would have to change.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Milana, 38, Shows Her Huge Size In New Photos. Paperela Undo "Right now the culture is that it's OK to target Jews and kill them and you're rewarded for it. That has to change.' Israel itself rejects the two-state solution. It says any final agreement must come through talks with Palestinians, and that statehood cannot be a precondition. Huckabee has long supported the idea of a 'greater Israel,' meaning permanent Israeli control of the occupied Palestinian territories. He uses the biblical term 'Judea and Samaria' to refer to the West Bank. The ambassador also strongly criticised US allies, including the UK and Australia, for placing sanctions on two far-right Israeli ministers. The sanctions were issued over the ministers' "repeated incitements of violence against Palestinian communities" in the occupied West Bank. He said, 'I have not yet heard a good reason for why these two elected ministers have been sanctioned by countries that ought to respect the country's sovereignty and recognise that they have not conducted any criminal activity.' The war in Gaza started in October 2023, after Hamas attacked Israel, killing around 1,200 people and taking about 251 hostages. There are still 56 hostages being held in Gaza, and at least 20 are believed to be alive. Since the war began, at least 54,927 Palestinians have been killed, according to Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry. The UN says more than a quarter of those killed were children.

'I regret some of my posts': Musk blinks in fight with Trump - will US President respond?
Elon Musk with US President Donald Trump (File photo) Billionaire Elon Musk on Wednesday expressed regret over his "some posts" against US President Donald Trump, saying he "went too far". "I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week. They went too far," the Tesla chief wrote on X. The public feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump reached its pinnacle when the Tesla company owner made a striking allegation against the US President. In a post on his own platform X, Musk wrote, 'Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!' "Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out," he further added. Musk, however, deleted some of his most damaging X posts against Trump, seemingly attempting to walk back the explosive claim. Another tweet he deleted is where he apparently supported Trump's impeachment as President and that JD Vance should replace him as the US President. Jeffrey Epstein was a financier who amassed significant wealth, allegedly by managing money for billionaires, though much about his financial dealings remained shrouded in secrecy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Over the years, he cultivated relationships with a host of influential figures, including former US Presidents, British royalty, and prominent Hollywood personalities. His downfall began in 2008, when he pleaded guilty in Florida to charges of soliciting prostitution from a minor. He served just 13 months in jail under a controversial work-release programme- an outcome widely criticised as lenient given the severity of the allegations against him.
