Twenty years since the Air India bombings
Part 1: Why is the Canadian government resisting a public inquiry?
By David Adelaide 29 July 2005 Use this version to print Send this link by email Email the author The following is the first of a two-part article. The concluding part was posted on July 30. The transparent aim of this photo opportunity was to deflect demands for a public inquiry that had been much revived by the March 2005 conclusion of the long-awaited Air India trial. Not only did the trial result in the acquittal of both accused, it also revealed that the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) had erased massive amounts of evidence and very likely had an agent working within the group responsible for the bombings. In the period leading up to the Air India bombings, the conflict between the separatists and the Indian government had intensified dramatically. In June 1984, the Indian government ordered the army to strike at the separatist leadership then occupying the Golden Temple at Amritsar. The invasion of the Golden Temple, the most important Sikh holy site, was a massacre in which 1000 people were killed and numerous historically significant buildings and documents were damaged.

Indian government statement
(CNN) Following is the full text of the Indian government statement read Sunday by Indian External Affairs Minister Jaswant Singh. "The Government of India has noted that the major portion of the address of the President of Pakistan yesterday relates to reforms to modernize Pakistan. We wish the people of Pakistan well in this endeavor. To the extent that these reforms have a direct nexus to external developments, we welcome them. We welcome the now declared commitment of the Government of Pakistan not to support or permit any more the use of its territory for terrorism anywhere in the world, including in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. This commitment must extend to the use of all territories under Pakistan's control today. We would assess the effectiveness of this commitment only by the concrete action taken.

India's coalition government wins vote of confidence
Vajpayee
Leaders vow to follow moderate course
March 28, 1998 Web posted at: 2:29 p.m. EST (1929 GMT) NEW DELHI, India (CNN) Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee's two-week-old minority coalition government won a vote of confidence Saturday, following two days of heated debate over whether his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party was sincere in dropping its hard-line policies. According to officials, 274 votes were cast for the motion; 261 against. After the vote, Vajpayee thanked his supporters and said: "Now all the uncertainty is over. I had proposed stability and now I am in a position to fulfill that pledge. The way is now open for a stable and a good government." "The majority that we got today has put the stamp of approval on our governance. ... I am happy with the people's verdict." The right-wing BJP had been criticized by two powerful parties the rival Congress party and the center-left United Front alliance for its aggressive ideology, but abandoned its stand on controversial religious issues to win wider support. According to BJP President L. K. Advani, the BJP will adhere to the more moderate goals spelled out in a governing agenda it drafted with its 19 coalition partners.

India's AIDS Children Shunned
NEW DELHI, July 28, 2004
A girl clicks the beads on an abacus in Akankshya, a home for care and support for HIV positive clients, in New Delhi. (Photo: AP)
"Many doctors refuse to treat or even touch HIV-positive children. Some schools expel or segregate children because they or their parents are HIV-positive."
Human Rights Watch Report
(AP) Sitting cross-legged on the cement floor of a home for abandoned children, 7-year-old Rupa — one of at least 60,000 Indian children infected with the AIDS virus — laughed excitedly, clicking the beads on an abacus.
"I've done it. I've won," she shouted, finishing her simple math problem ahead of a dozen other children crowding the sparsely furnished room.
Rupa's bright eyes and high-spirited nature do not reflect her harrowing tale — of being shunned by neighbors and turned away from the homes of relatives when they learned she had tested positive for HIV, contracted at birth from her mother. India and the United Nations have said 5.1 million adults are infected with the HIV virus here, the second-highest number in the world after South Africa.

Separatist Maulana Ansari kept an open mind in the talks The Indian Government and a group of Kashmiri separatists have agreed that violence must end in the troubled region at a historic first meeting.
A moderate wing of the main Kashmir alliance met a team headed by hard-line home minister LK Advani in Delhi. They will now meet Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee on Friday, another first. Correspondents say there are still many obstacles to a deal over Kashmir, where thousands have died in an insurgency. The meeting has proved a very good beginning
LK Advani
Indian home minister The BBC's Adam Mynott in Delhi says the meeting would not have happened without recent peace moves between India and Pakistan over the disputed territory of Kashmir. Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf said on Thursday he was hopeful of a peaceful solution to the Kashmir dispute. "There is a realisation that we need to address all issues including the issue of Kashmir to bring peace and harmony to the region," he said at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

Movement in India for Nuclear Disarmament
Preamble After the five nuclear weapon tests of May 11 and 13, the BJP-led government has declared India a nuclear weapons power. This decision in no way increases India’s security and is not in the interest of its people. By qualitatively escalating the arms race in the subcontinent, it makes a war with our neighbours likelier and the possibility of mutual annihilation through a nuclear exchange very real. The tests and the consequent rhetoric by senior government leaders introduce a new spiral of suspicions and tensions with our neighbours which will increase, not decrease, nuclear insecurities all around. These tests were a complete departure from a settled national consensus. There was a national consensus in favour of elimination of all nuclear weapons; there was a national consensus that in the absence of any tangible movement towards global disarmament, India must keep its nuclear option open. This consensus has now been breached in the pursuit of narrow political ends and in the name of a fake national consensus supporting nuclear weapons that is now belied in Parliament and on the streets. These decisions by the Government to move towards nuclear weapons are therefore reprehensible and deserve to be unequivocally condemned. The Indian Government’s dangerous move towards nuclear weaponsiation has now brought forth a similar Pakistani response which also needs to be condemned.

Nuclear Weapons
Background
India's nuclear weapons program was started at the Bhabha Atomic Research Center in Trombay. In the mid-1950s India acquired dual-use technologies under the "Atoms for Peace" non-proliferation program, which aimed to encourage the civil use of nuclear technologies in exchange for assurances that they would not be used for military purposes. There was little evidence in the 1950s that India had any interest in a nuclear weapons program, according to Joseph Cirincione of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace . Under the "Atoms for Peace" program, India acquired a Cirus 40 MWt heavy-water-moderated research reactor from Canada and purchased from the U.S. the heavy water required for its operation. In 1964, India commissioned a reprocessing facility at Trombay, which was used to separate out the plutonium produced by the Cirus research reactor. This plutonium was used in India's first nuclear test on May 18, 1974, described by the Indian government as a "peaceful nuclear explosion." According to the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists , India began work on a thermonuclear weapon in the 1980s. In 1989, William H. Webster, director of the CIA, testified before the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee that "indicators that tell us India is interested in thermonuclear weapons capability." India was purifying lithium, producing tritium and separating lithium isotopes. India had also obtained pure beryllium metal from West Germany

The People's Movement Against Nuclear Energy (PMANE) has issued an appeal to the new Indian government on behalf of the people of southern Tamil Nadu and Kerala requesting due consideration of the dangers posed on health and safety as well as to the environment and the regions natural resources by the Koodankulam NPP. (611.5614) PNAME - The People's Movement Against Nuclear Energy (PMANE) has issued an appeal to the new Indian government on behalf of the people of southern Tamil Nadu and Kerala requesting due consideration of the dangers posed on health and safety as well as to the environment and the regions natural resources by the Koodankulam NPP. The usual procedures were not followed when proper permission for the Koodankulam project was being sought with the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board being sidestepped by the DAE. Another irregularity was the lack of a mandatory Public Hearing, which has still not been conducted to this day. Further, the appeal demands that the government and DAE respect the fact that farmers, fisherfolk and others in southern Tamil Nadu and Kerala have rights to life and livelihood. The people are concerned that the Koodankulam project will jeopardize the soil, water and air of southern India as well as the health and wellbeing of the people there who already have a high incidence of cancer and other natural radiation-related illnesses. The discharge of hot water with radioactive pollutants into the sea will increase the temperature of the seawater and damage the health of the fish and those nutritionally dependent on that fish. The fishermen would lose their livelihoods and sink further into poverty and misery and the already malnourished farming families will stand to suffer even more.

Sri Lankan Refugees in India: Hesitant to Return
Tamil refugees from Sri Lanka began fleeing to India in 1983 when violence broke out in their country between the majority Sinhalese and the minority Tamil militant group, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). Although many of the refugees have been repatriated to Sri Lanka over the years, at present 61,000 Sri Lankan Tamils are living in 103 government-run camps in the South Indian state of Tamilnadu. An additional 20,000 refugees live outside the camps.
Nearly all the refugees that Refugees International spoke to on a recent mission were eager to return to Sri Lanka, but they are hesitating for several reasons. First, they are not convinced that the conflict has been resolved. Many of the refugees had come to India once before and then returned to Sri Lanka at the time of a previous ceasefire between the LTTE and the Government, only to flee back to India when hostilities resumed between the two parties. As a result the refugees are cautious this time and will wait until peace seems more likely and security in Sri Lanka is better. At present the peace process is not moving forward because of disagreement in the Government between the Prime Minister and the President over the issue of negotiations with the LTTE.
The camp-based refugees told RI
Almost all the refugees we spoke to had been in India since 1995 and most since 1990. They have had very few options to living in the camps, especially as returning to their homes in Sri Lanka was not feasible in the past due to the ongoing war between the LTTE and the Government. Some have taken extreme steps. Mani, a refugee from the Jaffna district of Sri Lanka, told

India's government is under pressure to bridge the digital divide in the country. Despite increasing investments in IT infrastructure the gap is still widening, according to a group of NGOs. The government is sending a sizeable delegation to WSIS in Geneva, but the director of OneWorld South Asia says there has been no dialogue between the government and people's organisations on ICT strategies and policies.
