කාශ්මීරයේ 8 හැවිරිදි දැරිවියක් සමූහ දූෂණයකට ලක්කර ඝාතනය කර තිබේ.

හිමාලය ප්‍රදේශයේ එඩේර පවුලක හැදී වැඩුණු 8 හැවිරිදි පුංචි අසීෆා අතුරුදන් වුණේ පසුගිය ජනවාරි මාසයේදී ය.

ඇගේ සිරුර දින කිහිපයකට පසු හමුවුණේ, කතුවා නගරය අසල කෑලෑවක තිබියදී ය.

නමුත් මේ දිනවල ඇගේ ඝාතනය වැඩි කතා බහට ලක්වන පුවතක් බවට පත්වුණේ, සිද්ධිය සම්බන්ධයෙන් සැකපිට හින්දු භක්තික පුරුෂයන් 8 දෙනෙකු අත්අඩංගුවට ගැනිමට එරෙහිව දක්ෂිණාංශික හින්දු කණ්ඩායම් විරෝධය පල කිරීම හේතුවෙනි.

අත්අඩංගුවට ගෙන සිටින පිරිස අතර විශ්‍රාමික රාජ්‍ය නිලධාරියෙක්, පොලිස් නිලධාරීන් හතර දෙනෙක් සහ බාලවයස්කරුවෙකු ද සිටින බව ඉන්දීය වාර්තාවල සඳහන් ය.

ඉන්දීය වාර්තාවල දැක්වෙන්නේ, පුංචි අසීෆා දින ගණනාවක් දූෂණ කර, වධ දී අවසානයේ මරා දමා ඇති බව ය.

මේ අමානුෂික ඝාතනය සම්බන්ධයෙන් අදහස් දක්වමින් සුපිරි නළු කමල් හසන් පවසන්නේ, දැරිය මෙලෙස ඝාතනයට ලක්වීම ඉන්දියානුවෙක් ලෙස පිළිකුලෙන් යුතු ව හෙළා දකින බව ය.

ඉන්දීය ක්‍රිකට් කණ්ඩායමේ නායක විරාත් කෝලි සෙල්ෆි වීඩියෝවක් අන්තර්ජාලයට මුදා හරිමින් ජනතාවගෙන් විමසන්නේ තමන්ගේ පවුලේ අයෙකුට මෙවන් ඉරණමක් අත් වුවහොත් නිශ්ශබ්දව බලා සිටිනවා ද යන්නයි.

මෙවන් සමාජයක ජීවත් වීම ලැජ්ජාවක් බව ද ඔහු එම වීඩියෝවේදී කියා සිටියේය.

U.S., Britain, France launch air strikes in Syria

U.S., Britain, France launch air strikes in Syria

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S., British and French forces pounded Syria with air strikes early on Saturday in response to a poison gas attack that killed dozens of people last week, in the biggest intervention by Western powers against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

U.S. President Donald Trump announced the military action from the White House late on Friday. As he spoke, explosions rocked Damascus. British Prime Minister Theresa May and French President Emmanuel Macron said the UK and France had joined in the attack.
Trump said he was prepared to sustain the response until Assad’s government stopped its use of chemical weapons.

The strikes were the biggest intervention by Western powers against Assad in the country’s seven-year-old civil war and pitted the United States and its allies against Russia, which itself intervened in the war in 2015 to back Assad.

“A short time ago, I ordered the United States Armed Forces to launch precision strikes on targets associated with the chemical weapons capabilities of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad,” Trump said in a televised address from the White House.

Speaking of Assad and his suspected role in last week’s chemical weapons attack, Trump said, “These are not the actions of a man. They are crimes of a monster instead.”

A U.S. official told Reuters the strikes were aimed at multiple targets and involved Tomahawk cruise missiles.

At least six loud explosions were heard in Damascus in the early hours of Saturday and smoke was seen rising over the Syrian capital, a Reuters witness said. A second witness said the Barzah district of Damascus had been hit in the strikes. Barzah is the location of a major Syrian scientific research centre.

At a Pentagon briefing, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Joseph Dunford said the targets included a Syrian research facility and a chemical weapons storage facility.

A second U.S. official said targets were being carefully selected with the aim of damaging Assad’s ability to conduct further gas attacks, while avoiding the risk of spreading poisonous fallout in civilian areas.

“The purpose of our actions tonight is to establish a strong deterrent against the production, spread and use of chemical weapons,” Trump said.

The U.S. president, who has tried to build good relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, had sharply critical words for both Russia and Iran, which have backed Assad’s government.

“To Iran and to Russia, I ask, what kind of a nation wants to be associated with the mass murder of innocent men, women and children?” Trump said.

British Prime Minister Theresa May said she had authorized British armed forces “to conduct coordinated and targeted strikes to degrade the Syrian regime’s chemical weapons capability.” She described it as a “limited and targeted strike” aimed at minimizing civilian casualties.

The military action is not about intervening in Syria’s civil war or changing its government, she said.

It was not immediately clear how extensive the strikes were. U.S. officials had earlier said that Trump had pressed for a more aggressive U.S. strike against Syria than his military chiefs had recommended.

U.S. Defence Secretary Jim Matt and other military leaders had warned that the larger the attack, the greater the risk of a confrontation with Russia, two U.S. officials said.

Trump made clear in his eight-minute television address that he is wary of a deeper entanglement in Syria, where about 2,000 U.S. troops have been deployed to fight Islamic State.

“America does not seek an indefinite presence in Syria,” he said.

The air strikes, however, risk dragging the United States further into Syria’s civil war, particularly if Russia, Iran and Ass opt to retaliate.

As Protesters Plan Black Flags, PM Modi Will Hover Over Chennai In Chopper

As Protesters Plan Black Flags, PM Modi Will Hover Over Chennai In Chopper
The East Coast road would be completely shut an hour ahead of PM Modi's visit to keep protesters at bay.
Tamil Nadu | Written by J Sam Daniel Stalin | Updated: April 11, 2018 23:59 IST

CHENNAI:  Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Tamil Nadu visit on Thursday would be without any public road drive as some opposition parties and Tamil outfits plan to show black flags to protest against the centre for not constituting the Cauvery Management Board despite the Supreme Court order.

On arrival at the Chennai airport in an Indian Air Force plane, the PM would hop into a chopper and land right at the ongoing Defence Expo venue near Mahabalipuram. PM Modi's drive here would only be inside the premises.

The East Coast road would be completely shut an hour ahead of PM Modi's visit to keep protesters at bay.

On his return to Chennai to participate in another event, the Prime Minister would again avoid a drive from the Chennai airport, and would land at the helipad constructed inside the IIT Madras campus to attend the function in the adjoining Adyar Cancer Institute. 

Authorities have razed a wall between the two campuses to enable PM Modi's car drives to the venue without having to come to the main road where protesters could gather. 

The PM would once again fly within the city from the IIT campus to the airport, a distance of 10 kilometres.

Slamming the prime minister, MDMK chief Vaiko said, "Can't you go by road instead of a helicopter?"

Film director P Barathiraja, who had spearheaded the massive protest on Tuesday against Indian Premier League (IPL) matches in Chennai, confirmed the black flag protest against the prime minister. 

"We would assemble at airport at 9 am and show black flags. The PM should go back. He has done injustice to Tamil Nadu," he said.

The DMK, which was the first to announce a black flag protest against the Prime Minister, would assemble near the airport as well. 

For weeks now, Tamil Nadu state has seen protests and bandhs by political parties, pro-Tamil outfits, voluntary organisations and the film fraternity over the delay in setting up the Cauvery Management Board, an independent regulatory body that will implement sharing of the Cauvery waters between Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Puducherry and Kerala.

On February 16, the Supreme Court had set the decades-long water-sharing dispute to rest, asking the centre to implement a scheme for sharing water within six weeks. As the deadline expired, the centre moved court seeking more time, citing the Karnataka assembly polls on May 12.

Earlier this week, the court asked the centre to inform it by May 3 how it planned to implement the water sharing formula in line with the court's verdict delivered in February.
