FSFN to forge electoral alliance with RJPN and NC: Leader Yadav

KATHMANDU: The General Secretary of Federal Socialist Forum Nepal Ram Sahaya Yadav said the party would forge electoral alliance with the Rastriya Janta Party Nepal and Nepali Congress for upcoming polls to address the feelings of Madhesi people.
He clarifed this alliance for the upcoming polls only not for the party merger with other like-minded parties at an interaction programme in Kathmandu on Monday.
“We are in alliance with NC for the elections only not for merger with NC. UML and Maoist Centre have also forged electoral alliance for the polls, party unification is not possible with a surface homework,” Yadav Shared.
He said the party would take the leadership role for the rights of Indigenous, Muslim, Tharu, suppressed community and marginalised community in the nation.
Similarly, CPN-Maoist Centre central leader Chakrapandi Khanal Baldev speaking at the same programme clarified the party had held discussion regarding unification with the UML rather then electoral alliance despite being in the coalition government.
He accused PM Sher Bahadur Deuba and Nepali Congress of deliberately questioning the CPN-Maoist Centre’s political morality in public.
Khanal said the earlier alliance with NC was for local levels.
He said the CPN-Maoist Centre would remain and support the government and clarified that the broader alliance with the UML is for people and nation.

India recall pacemen Umesh and Shami for Australia ODIs

MUMBAI:  India have recalled fast bowlers Mohammed Shami and Umesh Yadav for the first three one-day internationals against Australia while they continue to rest their frontline spinners. Yadav and Shami were part of the test squad which blanked Sri Lanka 3-0 but were rested from the subsequent five-match ODI series, which the tourists also swept.Fast bowler Shardul Thakur, who played two matches in the series and took a single wicket, was dropped from the 16-man squad for the series against Australia. The hosts will, however, continue to be without off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and left-arm tweaker Ravindra Jadeja for the first three of five matches against Steve Smith’s side. Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal will be India’s spinners as the Virat Kohli-led side continues to build toward the 50-over World Cup in 2019 in England and Wales. “The team for the three ODIs against Australia has been selected in line with the rotation policy of the Board and ac...

United frustrate Liverpool in disappointing derby

LIVERPOOL:  A cautious Manchester United frustrated hosts Liverpool as a lacklustre North-West Premier League derby ended 0-0 on Saturday with neither side able to find the creative touch. The draw leaves United alone at the top of the table on 20 points although Manchester City, who are now a point behind, can regain first place when they host Stoke City later on Saturday.Those hoping for a classic blood-and-thunder clash of the two most successful clubs in English football were probably being overly optimistic but few would have predicted such an uninspiring 90 minutes at Anfield. United manager Jose Mourinho’s team selection suggested that, as last season, he would adopt a cautious approach to taking on Juergen Klopp’s side. Instead of Spanish craftsman Juan Mata on the right, the more defensively diligent Ashley Young started in the role and Marcus Rashford, carrying a slight knock from England duty, was left on the bench. With United’s Romelu Lukaku left alone – an...

US trio win Nobel for finding Einstein’s gravitational waves

STOCKHOLM/LONDON:  Three US scientists won the 2017 Nobel prize for physics on Tuesday for opening up a new era of astronomy by detecting gravitational waves, ripples in space and time foreseen by Albert Einstein a century ago. The work of Rainer Weiss, Barry Barish and Kip Thorne crowned half a century of experimental efforts by scientists and engineers.Measuring gravitational waves offers a new way to observe the cosmos, helping scientists explore the nature of mysterious objects including black holes and neutron stars. It may also provide insight into the universe’s very earliest moments. The first detection of the waves created a scientific sensation when it was announced early last year and the teams involved in the discovery had been widely seen as favourites for Tuesday’s prize. “We now witness the dawn of a new field: gravitational wave astronomy,” Nils Martensson, acting chairman of the Nobel Committee for Physics, told reporters. “This will teach us about the ...
