US ambassador's remarks on Manipur violence; says "United States is ready to assist India, if asked"

Eric Garcetti's statement on Manipur violence


US envoy Eric Garcetti said the United States is ready to assist India, if asked, in dealing with the situation in Manipur. Over 100 people have died in the ethnic violence between Meitei and Kuki communities in Manipur.

US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti on Thursday said the United States is ready to assist India in dealing with the violence in Manipur. Garcetti said for the US, Manipur is a "human concern" and it can bring more investment if peace is in place.


On Thursday, a woman was shot dead outside a school in Manipur's Imphal West district, a day after schools reopened in the area. The turmoil in Manipur began after a 'Tribal Solidarity March' was organized to contest the Meitei community's demand for Scheduled Tribe status. Since then, more than 100 people have lost their lives in the ethnic violence between Meitei and Kuki communities.


At a press conference in Kolkata, Ambassador Eric Garcetti said, "Let me speak about Manipur first. We pray for peace there. When you ask us about the concern of the United States, I don't think it's a strategic concern. I think it's about human concern."

Class 11th Final Term Maths Test

Image
It was a few days ago when my class teacher announced that the following week class tests will be conducted. It did not caught us out of blue as we had already expected it, but the thing that surprised us was the syllabus and schedule for the test. We had no breaks between the tests since the school decided to conduct all the tests in a single week. Somedays we had to prepare for two subjects.  The syllabus was so vast that it was almost impossible to cover in a few days. All the main subjects including Physics, Chemistry and Maths had 2 chapters and these were the chapters that I had never even read before. There was a chapters in Maths called Limits and Derivatives, which I was hearing about for the first time. When I first opened my Maths book and looked at the chapter, it almost panicked me. There were all types of new symbols and strange equations which I had no idea how to solve. I decided it would be a waste of time to understand this completely new chapter all by myself, so...

Upagupta, the disciple of Buddha, lay asleep in the dust by thr city wall of Mathura. Lamps were all out, doors were all shut, ans stars were all hidden by the murky sky of August. Whose feet were those tinkling with anklets, touching his breast of a sudden? He woke up startled, and the light from a woman's lamp fell on his forgiving eyes. It was Vasavadatta the dancing girl, starred with jewels, Clouded with a pale blue mantle, drunk with the wine of her youth. She lowered her lamp and saw the young face, austerely beautiful.

The young ascetic answered, 'Woman, go on your way; When the time is ripe I will come to you.'

It was eveing of a day in April, in the Spring. The b...
