goa could be a soft target for terrorist if goan sea boundaries are not protected says Chairman of Mandovi Fisheries, Menino Afonso

0

dec-15-2012 … Asking the state government to be more alert inside the goan water’s Chairman of Mandovi Fisheries, Menino Afonso on Saturday said that the state of goa could be the radar of a major terrorist activity through sea if proper measures were not taken to take care of the boundaries of the goan sea where more than three hundred illegal trawlers were illegally fishing in goan sea waters without having proper identification of the concerned trawler’s and their labourers

It may be noted that this week goan fishermen had caught Six trawlers from Karnataka which were found allegedly fishing in Goan territorial waters and were brought to the betim jetty by goan fishermen who were later booked for illegally fishing in to goan waters …

Speaking to  goan-reporter Chairman of Mandovi Fisheries, Menino Afonso said that the illegal trawlers fishing in goa waters was a serious issue as the same illegal trawlers did not had card, custom pass and had not a single permission with them from their state and therefore goan waters were an easy entry point for terrorists to enter …

if one goes through the tragic incident of the 26/11 mumbai attack according to an intelligence report the terrorists who had attacked Mumbai in 2008 had used sea routes for coming from Karachi in Pakistan to Mumbai ,.

The reports had warned that there could be a possible entry of terrorists into Mumbai through the sea route and the same intelligence was available six months ago as subsequently a barge was found by the locals on Shrivardhan coast in Raigad district four months back before the incident could take place

Even mumbai’s the then late Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh had said that the terrorists, who had created havoc in Mumbai overnight, came by boats …

Militants armed with automatic weapons and grenades attacked Taj and Oberoi hotels, hospitals and a famous tourist cafe in Mumbai killing more than 100 people.

Menino said that the recent code system which the state government hade ome for fishing trawlers was used only for goan fishing trawlers while the other state trawlers had no such system which was another serious issue to think of

Menino also stated that they have informed about the illegal trawlers fishing in goan waters to the chief minister Manohar Parrikar and fisheries minister avertano furtado who had assured full cooperation from their side to solve the issue as soon as possible

Even sports minister ramesh talwadkar in his recent press conference had said that the infrastructure at these venues will be developed at the cost of Rs over 240 crores which would be prepared well before the schedule time ….

But on the other side the current bjp led government ml’a from st andre constituency Vishnu surya wagh had raised his objections over hoisting the lusofonia games 2013 in goa saying that Goa shouldn’t participate in the Lusofonia Games as the participants were Portuguese-speaking countries and wondered how a state can join in as Goa was a state, a former Portuguese colony and not a country.

On asked as whether the differences between his party colleague and st andre mla Vishnu surya wagh were solved over the hosting of lusofonia games 2012 in goa sports minister ramesh talwadkar said that he had spoke to Vishnu over the matter and the difference were solved

India Need to Fortify Relations with Energy Exporting Countries, Says Shri Salman Khurshid, Union Minister for External Affairs

0

Shri Salman Khurshid, Union Minister for External Affairs said that India need to go for better integration with international markets for strategizing Energy Security and enhancing relations with energy exporting countries. He emphasised on the strategic and economic importance of energy security, the opportunities in this space and the strategies and structured approaches adopted by the government. Addressing the inaugural session of the “Energy Security Conference 2012” organized jointly by the Ministry of External Affairs and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in New Delhi today, Shri Salman Khurshid said that the demand for energy is growing at a terrifying pace in India and yet not fast enough if we take into account the per capita consumption in India.

Sources of energy are depleting at a fast pace and we are already importing 80 per cent of our oil and 25 per cent of our gas requirements. Going forward, if we continue to grow at 8-9 per cent import dependence is likely to increase and India would be importing 35-57% of coal, 90-94% of oil and 20-57% of gas by 2031-32, he said. He said that at the domestic level, we need to optimally exploit and utilize our energy resources; leverage on opportunities provided by coal bed methane and shale gas and develop technologies to scale up renewable energy. In addition, in the nuclear field there needs to be clarity in public perception, he said.

On the achievements and initiatives taken by the government, he said “We have made progress in linking India’s electricity grid, the second largest in the world with Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. In addition, we plan to put in place additional gas pipeline network of 15,000 km and are in the process of increasing our LNG capacity to 45 million metric tonnes per annum from the current 13.5 mmtpa and have put in place a roadmap for the ambitions Turkmenistan TAPI Gas Pipeline to be commissioned by 2017.”

Focusing on the importance of energy security, Shri Adi Godrej, President, CII and Chairman, Godrej Group, said, “Increasing energy requirements coupled with a slower than expected increase in domestic crude oil and natural gas production has led to a strong reliance on imports and has drawn attention to the importance of Energy Security.” Emphasising the need for strengthening the domestic energy sources as well as acquisition of energy assets overseas, he said, “Measures to scale up renewable energy and expedite the exploration and production of oil, gas and coal to enhance domestic production need to be put in place.” He further added that strategic alliances and joint ventures as well as the establishment of a sovereign energy fund will enable successful acquisition of energy assets overseas.

In his address on the occasion, Shri Sudhir Vyas, Secretary (Economic Relations) said Ministry of External Affairs has been working with the line ministries, public and private sector to enable energy asset acquisition. He further added that there is a need to explore how synergies and tradeoffs can be developed; cooperation enhanced and opportunities

leveraged to ensure the nation’s energy security.

Shri Chandrajit Banerjee, Director General, CII said in his address that the Energy Security has clearly emerged as a key concern for India. To succeed in winning international energy assets, India urgently needs a value added strategic road map towards acquisition of overseas Energy Assets.
