  • Shabana Azmi Confers Neerja Bhanot Award on Rashmi Anand by : INVC Team Published on : 20 Jul, 2014 03:44 PM IST
    Shabana Azmi confers Neerja Bhanot Award on Rashmi Anand By : INVC Team Published On : 20 Jul, 2014 03:44 PM IST INVC, Chandigarh, In a solemn and impressive ceremony held today at the auditorium of St Stephens School, Chandigarh, acclaimed actor Shabana Azmi conferred the prestigious Neerja Bhanot Award 2013 on Delhi based Rashmi Anand. The annual Neerja Bhanot Award was instituted in 1991 in the memory of the brave Senior Flight Purser, Neerja Bhanot, who saved hundreds of lives while sacrificing her own, during a Pan Am plane hijack at Karachi Airport in September 1986. The Award consists of Rs. 1.50 lakh, a Citation and a Trophy. Speaking on the occasion, Shabana Azmi said that the true courage and compassion shown by both Neerja and Rashmi are highly inspiring for all of us. Azmi raised a very important question : What is it that drives a person to give up everything, including her life, for someone else, unknown to her and basically a stranger till that moment in time? Citing examples, Azmi asked, “What would Neerja have been thinking of when she opened the door of the plane and, inspite of the bullets flying all round her and hand grenades exploding, she decided not to jump out and run away but instead do her duty and help the passengers escape? Or, why is Rashmi today spending time in dingy police stations and counseling women suffering from gender and domestic violence? What drives a person to do all this?” Azmi opined that this was a matter for deep research and it would be good if some University or State institution did this.

  • Pan Am 73 Sentg Narrative.Pdf
    INTRODUCTION We are here to remember. We are here to recount. We are here to bear witness. We are here to pay tribute. We are here to punish. We are here for justice. We are here to remember. Defendant Safarini committed his crime more than 17 years ago. The United States government never forgot. Within less than 48 hours after Pakistan had released the defendant from prison, the FBI captured him and brought him to this country to face the charges against him. The victims of this deadly hijacking and their family members have certainly never forgotten. They live every day without their loved ones who were killed. They live every day with the injuries, both physical and emotional, inflicted by the defendant. The victims have filled a notebook with their memories of pain and loss. Some have published articles and others have written books. They have told the Court in writing about their feelings and their grief. They surely have not forgotten. We are here to recount. The facts of this case are brutal. Mere words cannot adequately convey the carnage experienced by those aboard Pan Am Flight 73. We will do our best to recount the facts of this deadly terrorist attack, accompanied by visual images that provide a glimpse into the horror that took place aboard that plane. Then, victim after victim, family member after family member, will recount their own experiences. The voices of those victimized by the defendant will be heard. We are here to bear witness. More than 50 victims and family members have traveled here from around the world and around the country to bear witness to the defendant’s sentencing.

Maher is very grateful to both benefactors. A Word from the Sister Welcome yet to this another edition of Maher newsletter. Whenever I have received an honour, I have always felt it to be an acknowledgement of the efforts and hard work that my colleagues at Maher have put in toward the final goal of Maher: the end of destitution. It makes me more humble and yet more determined in Maher work. I feel happy that these honours enhance the value of the work Maher has been doing and eventually enable it to reach more people in distress. Of the two major honours I have received over last six months, I felt particularly proud receiving the Neerja Bhanot Award. What a brave woman Neerja was to have sacrificed her life at the age of just 22 years for the sake of saving others' lives! She paid the highest price performing her duty and became a loadstar for everyone of us. The Oooms honour placing me among the 100 inspiring people in the world was flattering but made me happy that the work my Maher colleagues have been doing has received yet another international recognition. Attending the historic Parliament of the World's Religions meet at Toronto was a real moment of pride.

  • Two Week Overview This/Next Week the Future This Week
    the Interesting Facts for the Week Salty and Roselle were two guide dogs who were with their owners in the World Trade Center during the September 11 attacks in New York City. They each guided their owners out of the burning towers before they collapsed, feats which were later recognized when they were awarded the Dickin Medal by the British charity the People's Dispensary for Sick Animals. Roselle went on to be posthumously named American Hero Dog of the Year 2011 by American Humane, and has a book written about her. Neerja Bhanot was an Indian head flight attendant who died while saving passengers on Pan Am Flight 73 which had been hijacked by terrorists during a stopover in Karachi, Pakistan, on 5 September 1986, just two days before her 23rd birthday. Posthumously, she became the youngest recipient of India's highest peacetime gallantry, the Ashok Chakra Award, as well as several other accolades from the governments of Pakis tan and the United States. The Terrorist were targeting Americans, so Neerja gathered up all of the passports and hid them. 340 passengers escaped, but she was shot while helping passengers escape through the emergency exits. this week this/next week the future After School Detention We are on the downhill slope for April 5-10 Clayton getting students test-ready.

  • Title: Discussion on the Motion for Consideration of the Anti-Hijacking Bill, 2016 (As Passed by Rajya Sabha)
    an> Title: Discussion on the motion for consideration of the Anti-Hijacking Bill, 2016 (As passed by Rajya Sabha). THE MINISTER OF CIVIL AVIATION (SHRI ASHOK GAJAPATHI RAJU): Hon. Chairman, Sir, I beg to move: "That the Bill to give effect to the Convention of the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft and for matters connected therewith, as passed by Rajya Sabha, be taken into consideration." Sir, there is a slight difference from the previous Bill in the sense that the definitions have changed. Now it is becoming in-flight from closure of a door to opening of the door. Definitions have been expanded. This Bill had been introduced in the Rajya Sabha and was referred to the Standing Committee. The Standing Committee examined it, returned it with recommendations and these were brought before both the Houses of Parliament. There were four recommendations. Out of the four, three were basically agreed by the Government. The one which was not accepted was with regard to compensation. It is because that has been left in the realm of the Executive. It has been done so because some of them could be policemen, some of them could be covered by insurance. So, it was thought that this compensation angle should be kept with the Executive and not in the ambit of the Legislature. This was the only difference after the Standing Committee had come out with its report. But the basic thing is that the definitions have changed and they have been enlarged. The death penalty also has been brought in where if a death occurs, it could be a policeman, it could be a passenger, it could be anyone, then the people who perpetrate this nefarious act ought to be sentenced to death.
