(meta data) TITLE: No More John Doe Orders? Indian ISPs Get Court Order For Specificity In URL Blocks - MediaNama

The Madras High Court has granted some relief to Internet users in India, courtesy an appeal filed by a consortium of Internet Service Providers asking for specificity in complaints of infringing content, instead of a John Doe/Ashok Kumar order.

The order, issued on the 15th of June 2012, of which MediaNama has a copy, states:

"The order of interim injunction dated 25/04/2012 is hereby clarified that the interim injunction is granted only in respect of a particular URL where the infringing movie is kept and not in respect of the entire website.

Further, the applicant is directed to inform about the particulars of URL where the interim movie is kept within 48 hours."

Readers might have noticed that, over the weekend, Indian ISPs enabled access to sites like Vimeo, The Pirate Bay, among others.

These sites had been previously blocked because of a John Doe order granted to Copyright Labs (for the movie Dhammu).

The John Doe order, against a nameless entity, which allowed studios to tell ISPs to block user access to many video sharing and torrent websites pre-emptively, to prevent uploading of content.

The clarification from the Madras High Court came following a representation to the court by a consortium of ISPs, pointing out the John Doe order has also led to legitimate content being disabled, and they can still block access to infringing content when informed by the studios.

Copyright Labs had also given to the ISPs, a list of several URLs with pirated content.

On condition of anonymity, an ISP representative told MediaNama that they felt that ISPs were being wrongfully vilified on the Internet, when it was never really their fault, and that they were only complying with the court orders.

They felt that it was adversely going to impact their business if video streaming is disabled for users.

Starting with the movie Singham, for which Reliance Entertainment had taken a John Doe order last year, movie studios have been consistently getting John Doe orders blocking access to file sharing, video sharing and torrenting websites.

Readers might recall that a John Doe order has recently been granted to Viacom18 for the film the Gangs Of Wasseypur.

Following the Madras High Court order, which sets a precedent in terms of demands of specificity, ISPs may not comply with requests for blocking of entire websites, and use the Madras High Court order to get the courts to instead ask studios to be specific.

Just like the John Doe orders issued in the past set a precedent for more, this order might just set a welcome precedent for specificity.

Note that this is the way it should have been, in any case: under the IT Rules (2011), all studios had to do was ask ISPs to block access to specific URLs.

It doesn't mean that John Doe orders will not be granted, but it does suggest that they will be contested.

I'm quite surprised that the ISPs went and contested these orders: one notion was that with a reduction in video-watching online, their costs would have reduced.

However, revenues for mobile operators might also have been impacted, since many of their users choose pay-as-you-go plans, and video streaming would contribute significant revenues.

# Amazon Uses '60 Minutes' To Unveil Automated Delivery Drones

## Flying robots could deliver Amazon orders in four to five years, CEO Bezos estimates

In the future, Amazon customers may no longer need to rely on the U.S. Postal Service, FedEx or UPS to deliver their packages to their doorsteps.

In an eyebrow-raising maneuver that put the future on display while audiences were waiting for "The Amazing Race" and "The Good Wife," the online-retailing giant seized the chance offered by a Charlie Rose-led segment on "60 Minutes" to unveil an effort it is making to use automated drones to deliver the millions of goods its customers order.

Jeff Bezos, Amazon's founder and CEO, told Rose on the CBS program that the drones could carry up to five pounds of goods in a ten-mile radius from one of the company's fulfillment centers.

He estimated the fascinating gadgets, which would use GPS coordinates to find a specific location, would likely not appear for four to five years, calling an estimate before 2015 overly optimistic.

The drones would be "very green," he told Rose, since they would not burn fuel like delivery trucks.

Whittling down the costs of delivery is of primary interest to the Seattle company, which for years has eked out razor-thin profit margins because it continues to sink a good portion of its incoming cash into facilitating faster distribution of the thousands of products it sells to its customer base.

# Andy Coulson reportedly paid by News International when hired by Tories

Fresh questions for PM after reports Coulson received cash payments from NoW publisher until end of 2007

First published on Mon 22 Aug 2011 19.18 EDT

David Cameron is facing fresh questions about his decision to hire Andy Coulson in 2007 after it was reported that his former communications director received several hundred thousand pounds from his former employer News International after he was hired by the Conservative party.

The BBC's Robert Peston said that Coulson received cash payments from the company until the end of 2007 after his resignation as editor of the News of the World in January of that year.

Coulson resigned after Clive Goodman, the former royal editor at the paper, which was closed last month, was jailed for illegally intercepting voicemail messages.

The title's owner News International allegedly agreed to honour the remainder of Coulson's two-year contract, and the money was paid in instalments.

Coulson also continued to receive other benefits, including private health insurance and a company car, for several years.

He took up his post as director of communications at the Conservative party in July 2007.

The alleged payments ended before Cameron became prime minister but the fact one of Cameron's closest advisers was receiving money from News International after he started work for the Tories will cast doubt over Coulson's impartiality.

The spotlight will again fall on Cameron's close ties with the Murdoch media empire because of the revelations.

Conservative party sources insisted on Monday night they had no knowledge of any News International payments made to Coulson, after checks were made with every senior party official who might have been involved in hiring him in 2007.

Rumours of a financial relationship between Coulson and News International have circulated for some time.

It is understood that, prior to him standing down as director of communications in January this year, party officials had asked Coulson directly whether he had received payments from News International during the period he had worked for them.

They were seemingly confident enough to give the "categorical" assurances that he hadn't as recently as last month.

On 12 July, when asked by the Guardian, a senior Conservative party official said: "We can give categorical assurances that he wasn't paid by any other source.

Andy Coulson's only salary, his only form of income, came from the party during the years he worked for the party and in government."

Coulson was asked by the Commons culture, media and sport committee in 2009 whether he had received a payment from the company.

He told MPs it was a private matter but added he would be prepared to discuss it privately with John Whittingdale, the Conservative MP who chairs it.

In February, the Conservative party spokesman, Henry MacRory, told the Guardian: "I'm 100% satisfied that there is no truth in the suggestion that Andy was bankrolled by News International or by anybody else."

And Michael Spencer who was party, treasurer said: "I have no knowledge of it and would think it is highly unlikely that there was any such arrangement."

Labour MP Tom Watson, who sits on the culture, media and sport committee, said the money could be classed as a donation to the Tory party which should have been declared to the Electoral Commission.

"This is a remarkable revelation" Watson said.

"Not only was Coulson being paid when he gave evidence to the committee, he failed to declare it.

I will be writing to the electoral commission to invite them to look into this."

Under electoral law both the donor and recipient are obligated to report donations, meaning that if the payments are interpreted as donations in kind to the party, both News International and the party could face sanctions.

On Monday night Watson, who has vigorously pursued the hacking affair and emerged as one of Rupert Murdoch's most trenchant critics, also said: "We need to be certain that everyone involved in hiring Andy Coulson was not aware of these additional payments from NI.

We need a cast iron guarantee nobody knew."

The allegations raise more questions about how closely Coulson was scrutinised by Cameron and his team before he was offered the role as one of the future prime minister's most senior advisors and whether he was subjected to the appropriate checks.

It emerged earlier this year that Coulson did not receive the same security clearance as officials of similar seniority after he entered Downing Street.

A Labour spokesman said: "David Cameron now faces allegations that one of his top advisers was also in the pay of News International.

The prime minister needs to immediately make clear whether these allegations are true.

"There are serious questions to answer about Mr Coulson's employment in Downing Street and the country should not have to wait for full transparency."

News International paid off Clive Goodman, who received in £242,000, after he threatened to sue the company in 2007.

Glenn Mulcaire, the private investigator who worked for the company, also received a payment.

Both men are believed to have received their settlements in instalments.

A spokesman for News International said on Monday night: "News International consistently does not comment on the financial arrangements of any individual."

The exchange between Andy Coulson and Tom Watson MP when Coulson gave evidence to the culture select committee on 21 July 2009:

Tom Watson Just one last round of questioning.

You knew that you were going to resign before sentencing, but on the day of sentencing you resigned from the paper.

Coulson I actually resigned two weeks before I announced it.

And did you get a redundancy payment for that?

Coulson I got what was contractually due to me.

Obviously I did not work my notice so I received what was contractually due.

Tom Watson Then you were six months out of work.

Tom Watson And then you went to work directly for the Conservative party.

Tom Watson And you have not got any secondary income other than that have you?

Watson So your sole income was News International and then your sole income was the Conservative party?

Career.:Downing Street Director of Communications.

His pay was £140,000, the highest paid special advisor.
 Coulson announced his resignation on 21 January 2011. He commented about the "News of the World" allegations "I stand by what I've said about those events but when the spokesman needs a spokesman it's time to move on."
 In July 2011 questions were raised about Coulson's security vetting at Number Ten. He had not been subjected to the highest level of vetting, "developed vetting", allowing unrestricted access to top secret material. His predecessors had had the highest level of vetting, as did his successor and (after his departure) his deputy. "The Guardian" said that the disclosure "is understood to have 'absolutely shocked' some Whitehall information staff." According to Chris Bryant MP, senior officials working with Coulson believed that he had the same clearance level as his predecessor.

Bacon's father was a younger son of the Elizabethan lord keeper, and Bacon himself, like so many of the family, entered the legal profession.

An active Parliamentarian during the Civil War, he was chairman of the central committee of the eastern association, and published an attack on the prerogative in 1647.

Secluded at Pride's Purge, he soon conformed to the republican regime and was appointed a judge of the Admiralty.

As recorder of Ipswich, he represented the borough with his younger brother in all the Protectorate Parliaments, and served Cromwell as master of requests.

But by 1659 he was ready to denounce 'the tyranny of a Commonwealth', and he did not sit with the Rump on their second restoration in December.

He signed the Suffolk petition for a free Parliament, and returned to the House with the secluded Members in February 1660.5

Bacon was re-elected to the Convention, and marked as a friend by Lord Wharton, who assigned him to the mangement of William Ellys.

An inactive Member, he was appointed to five committees by full name, including those on the bills for confirming the privileges of Parliament and for settling ecclesiastical livings.

It was probably he who spoke on 10 July 1660 against a motion to double the poll-tax on Protestant nonconformists as well as Catholic recusants.

Together with Matthew Hale he was ordered on 10 Aug. to bring in measures to restrict the granting of leases of church lands and to provide for the endowment of vicarages out of impropriate rectories.

He made his will on 26 Aug. and was buried at Barham on 1 Sept.

None of his descendants entered Parliament.6

Taking Back Sunday released their sixth album "Happiness Is" in early 2014 through Hopeless Records. The album, which was produced by Mike Sapone, reached the top 10 in the "Billboard" 200. In between tours for the record, the group would meet up for two/three weeks at a time and work on ideas for their next album. In an interview with "The Aquarian Weekly" in early December 2015, vocalist Adam Lazzara reckoned that there would be another writing session before the group goes to record their next album. He said he can't "believe how [some of the songs] are coming out".


As of 2019, regulations to protect the environment against DEHP and B79P have not yet been put into place.

# Phthalate Substance Grouping – information sheet

Fourteen phthalates are included in the screening assessment of the Phthalate Substance Grouping, with an additional 14 included to consider combined exposure to phthalates.

These 28 phthalates are industrial chemicals.

They are not expected to occur naturally in the environment.

In Canada, phthalates may be used in a variety of consumer, commercial and industrial products, including plastics, paints and coatings, adhesives and sealants, automotive parts, and electronics, as well as in personal care products (such as cosmetics and natural health products).

Based on the most recent data, some of these substances are manufactured in and/or imported into the country in large quantities.

Seven of the 28 phthalates were not manufactured or imported in Canada.

## Why is the Government of Canada assessing them?

Phthalates were considered as part of the Substance Groupings Initiative under the Chemicals Management Plan.

These substances were included for screening assessment of potential risks to the environment and to human health.

Fourteen phthalates included in the Phthalate Substance Grouping screening assessment were identified as priorities for assessment based on the categorization of substances within the Domestic Substances List (DSL) or were considered a priority based on human health concerns.

Fourteen additional phthalates on the DSL were included within the scope of the screening assessment to consider combined exposure to phthalates.

These additional phthalates were not assessed as individual substances in the same way as the 14 that are in the Phthalate Substance Grouping.

Of these 14 additional phthalates, 4 were previously assessed in the Priority Substances List (PSL) or in follow-up reports [DBP (CAS RN 84-74-2), BBP (CAS RN 85-68-7), DEHP (CAS RN 117-81-7) and DnOP (CAS RN 117-84-0)].

DBP, BBP and DnOP were found not harmful to the environment or to human health.

DEHP was determined to be harmful to human health in Canada in the 1994 PSL assessment; however, there was not enough information available to conclude on the potential for harm to the environment at that time.

In the current screening assessment, new information on DEHP was used to propose a conclusion on its potential for harm to the environment.

Exposure to the general population of Canada to phthalates is expected to be from food, including breast milk, environmental media (dust and for certain phthalates, indoor air), and contact with plastic items.

The assessment took into consideration the results of biomonitoring studies.

Measuring substances in blood, urine or breast milk is called biomonitoring and is done on an ongoing basis through health studies or surveys, such as the Canadian Health Measures Survey.

Finding the substance in the body does not necessarily mean that it is causing harm.

Harmful effects will depend on the levels and the properties of the substances.

The information on measured levels in humans is important to estimating exposure to Canadians.

Canadians may also be exposed to some of these phthalates as a result of using certain cosmetics and natural health care products (for example, diaper creams, body lotions and hairsprays).

Exposure to certain phthalates may also occur from plastic toys and children's articles (for example, from mouthing these objects).

## How are they released into the environment?

In Canada, phthalates have a potential for release to the environment, primarily to air and water.

Releases may occur during their manufacturing and processing, including transportation and storage, and during the production, use and disposal of products containing them (for example, release into wastewater systems from use in cosmetics).

## What are the results of the assessment?

The Government of Canada conducted a science-based evaluation of phthalates, called a screening assessment.

Screening assessments address the potential for harm to the general population of Canada and to the environment.

More information on types of approaches used to address substances can be found in the Risk Assessment Toolbox fact sheet.

Results of the draft screening assessment indicate that phthalates are not expected to remain in the environment for a long time or accumulate in organisms.

Furthermore, the 14 substances in the Phthalate Substance Grouping are not considered to cause harm to the broader integrity of the environment.

For 13 of the phthalates in the Phthalate Substance Grouping, the quantity that may be released to the environment is below the level expected to cause harm to organisms.

However, the quantity of 1 phthalate from the grouping (B79P) and 1 additional phthalate (DEHP) that may be released to the environment is above the level expected to cause harm to organisms.

DEHP has not been re-assessed for its potential risk to human health in Canada at current levels of exposure; the previous PSL conclusion that DEHP may be harmful to human health remains unchanged.

The Government of Canada is therefore proposing that B79P and DEHP are entering or may enter the environment at levels that are harmful to the environment or its biological diversity.

The Government of Canada is also proposing that individually, the 14 phthalates in the Phthalate Substance Grouping are not harmful to human health at current levels of exposure.

In addition to the individual screening assessments conducted on the 14 phthalates in the Phthalate Substance Grouping and the updated ecological assessment of the additional phthalate, DEHP, the Government of Canada considered an additional 14 phthalates in a cumulative assessment as there is a likelihood of co-exposure.

When the combined exposure of phthalates to organisms in the environment is considered, the quantity entering the environment is below the levels that are expected to cause death to organisms.

There was not enough information to assess the potential for other, long-term effects resulting from combined exposures.

When the combined exposure to phthalates that have a common health effect is considered, the quantities are not harmful to human health at current levels of exposure.

## What is the Government of Canada doing?

The Government of Canada published the Draft Screening Assessment for the Phthalate Substance Grouping , the Proposed Risk Management Scope Document for B79P and the Proposed Risk Management Scope Document for DEHP on October 7 , 2017.

These publications are associated with a 60-day public comment period ending on December 6 , 2017.

Four state of the science reports, and a Proposed Approach for Cumulative Risk Assessment of Phthalates were previously released for a 60-day public comment period that ended September 30, 2015.

If the proposed conclusion is confirmed in the final screening assessment, the Government of Canada will consider the implementation of regulatory and non-regulatory controls to minimize the release of B79P and DEHP to the Canadian environment, in order to address ecological concerns, as appropriate.

DEHP, which was previously concluded to be harmful to human health, was added to the Cosmetic Ingredient Hotlist in 2009.

The listing indicates that the use of DEHP is prohibited and must not be present in cosmetic products.

For soft vinyl children's toys and child-care articles, compliance and enforcement of the existing regulation of DEHP (and 5 other phthalates) will continue as part of the regular enforcement of the Phthalates Regulations under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act.

Compliance and enforcement of the existing requirements for medical devices containing DEHP will continue as part of the regular enforcement of the Medical Devices Regulations under the Food and Drugs Act.

Phthalates in food continue to be measured as part of Health Canada's Total Diet Study.

Although the combined exposure of phthalates is not considered to be harmful to the environment or human health at current levels of exposure, some of these substances are associated with ecological and health effects of concern.

Therefore, it may be of concern for human health or the environment if use patterns of certain phthalates were to increase in Canada.

Follow-up activities to track changes in exposure and/or commercial use patterns for certain phthalates are being considered.

Stakeholders are encouraged to provide any information relevant to these substances that may help inform the choice of tracking activity, during the 60-day public comment period on the assessment.

This could include information on new or planned import, manufacture or use of the substance if not already submitted.

The health risks associated with a substance depend on its hazard (its potential to cause health effects) and the amount of substance to which a person is exposed.

As a general precaution, Canadians are reminded when using any product, to carefully follow safety warnings and directions and to dispose of the products appropriately.

Canadians who may be exposed to the phthalates in the workplace should consult with their employer and occupational health and safety (OHS) representatives about safe handling practices, applicable laws and requirements under the OHS legislation and the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS).

In 1994, a Health Canada assessment found that DEHP and another phthalate product, B79P, were harmful to human health. The Canadian federal government responded by banning their use in cosmetics and restricting their use in other applications. A more recent assessment in 2017 found that B79P and DEHP may cause environmental damage.

# 'Gentleman's Guide' Racks Up 12 Nominations for Drama Desk Awards

"A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder" cleaned up in the nominations for the annual Drama Desk Awards, making off with an even dozen nods.

Among the season's Broadway musicals, "Gentleman's Guide" led a pack that also included "The Bridges of Madison County" (nine), "Aladdin" (seven), "Rocky" (seven), "Beatiful" and "Bullets Over Broadway" (six apiece).

Off Broadway tuner "Fun Home" ranked high with eight noms.

Among plays, Bryan Cranston starrer "All the Way" topped the list with five nods, followed by the Off Broadway staging of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" (four) that was Julie Taymor's return to the New York stage following "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark."

The Drama Desks are just one of New York's annual round of legit awards leading up to the Tonys.

As with all such nominations — including the recently announced lists from the Outer Critics Circle and from the Drama League — the Drama Desks are an unreliable predictor of Tony love.

Still, legiters scrutinize them like tea leaves, especially this season, when the Broadway season's awards race seems to have no clear frontrunner.

With "Gentleman's Guide" also dominating the nominations from the Outer Critics, the tuner seems to have amassed strong awards momentum from critics, at least.

The show competes for the musical kudo alongside fellow Rialto titles "Aladdin," "Beautiful," "Rocky" and "The Bridges of Madison County," plus Off Broadway's "Fun Home" and "Love's Labour's Lost," both produced by the Public Theater.

That list leaves out "If/Then," the latest tuner from the creators of "Next to Normal," and "After Midnight," the Cotton Club revue that scored notably strong reviews when it opened in the fall.

The latter, however, was nominated for outstand revue.

The Drama Desks' play category is dominated by Off Broadway, with the Main Stem's "All the Way" (by Robert Shenkkan) and John Patrick Shanley's "Outside Mullingar" part of a list that also includes Bruce Norris' "Domesticated," Richard Nelson's "Regular Singing" and Nell Benjamin's "The Explorers Club," among others

The lead actor in a play trophy is a starry category, with Cranston competing against Ian McKellen ("No Man's Land"), Chris O'Dowd ("Of Mice and Men"), Daniel Radcliffe ("The Cripple of Inishmaan") and Denzel Washington ("A Raisin in the Sun").

Neil Patrick Harris ("Hedwig and the Angry Inch") is among the nominees for lead musical actor, and the lead actress in a tuner race came down to Sutton Foster ("Violet"), Idina Menzel ("If/Then"), Jessie Mueller ("Beautiful") and Kelli O'Hara ("Bridges"), alongside Off Broadway's Margo Seibert ("Tamar of the River") and Barrett Wilbert Weed ("Heathers").

"Lady Day at Emerson's Bar & Grill," for which topliner Audra McDonald is nominated for an acting trophy, has been notably classified as a play by the Drama Desks after both the Outer Critics and the Drama Leagues called the Billie Holiday bio a musical.

Producers of the production are likely to push for the show to be deemed a play by the Tonys as well, since both the race for lead actress in a musical is an unusually competitive ones.

Each year the Drama Desk — an org made up of legit critics, writers and scholars — also gives out special awards.

This year that list includes the ensemble casts of "The Open House" and "The Realistic Joneses," two plays by Will Eno, plus downtown org Soho Rep, actress Veanne Cox and director Ed Sylvanus Iskander.

The Drama Desk awards will be handed out in a June 1 ceremony at midtown venue Town Hall.

Dispatches: A look at human rights in the news today

###### Dispatches: Truth a Casualty in Ukraine Conflict

Smoke rises from burnt barricades in front of the police headquarters in the southeastern port city of Mariupol.

In every conflict, information becomes part of warfare, and Ukraine is no exception.

Each side creates its own narrative and comes up with casualty figures which at times have little to do with reality.

It gets worse when journalists fuel the propaganda machine, disseminating unconfirmed or plainly invented "facts."

Through social media, such distortions get amplified, reaching tens of thousands within minutes and, for some, become a call to action.

On Friday, I came to Mariupol, a city in southeastern Ukraine, as Ukrainian law-enforcement agencies were trying to oust anti-Kiev forces who had just captured the police headquarters building, supported by large, unarmed crowds of anti-Kiev residents.

In recent weeks, several government buildings in Mariupol have been captured by anti-Kiev forces and then reportedly retaken by government troops.

Social media was exploding with videos and conflicting casualty numbers, with some reports, citing "witnesses" claiming hundreds of deaths.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Interior claimed yesterday "at least 20 terrorists" were killed, as well as one member of the security forces, but did not provide any detail regarding the circumstances of the deaths.

Two major armed incidents in which people got hurt happened yesterday.

Around 11 a.m. there was shooting at the Mariupol police headquarters, when Ukrainian forces tried to dislodge anti-Kiev forces from the building.

About two hours later, more Ukrainian forces, apparently on their way to the police headquarters, fired at what appearedto be a crowd of unarmed people near the town theater, about 500 meters from the police building.

Through visits to four hospitals and a morgue, I was able to confirm that more than 40 people were seriously wounded and at least seven killed.

Today, a reliable source with no affiliation to either side but too frightened to be named informed me that "no more than 10 bodies" were brought to the city morgue.

Did other people die whose bodies were not brought to the morgue?

The official website of Mariupol city had the names of seven killed as of 8 p.m. on May 10, 2014.

Several websites run by the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic cited four casualties on May 9, and have not updated the numbers since.

I recorded the gender and ages of the patients, and spoke to the doctors about their injuries.

All of the wounded were male, from 30 to 50 years old; six of the wounded and at least one of those killed were from the security forces.

The doctors said that, with one exception, all had gunshot wounds from automatic weapons, to the legs and abdomen.

I interviewed some of the wounded, who told me they were walking home from the May 9 demonstration when Ukrainian armed forces opened fire at them near the theatre.

Medics now say they have been instructed by the security services not to release any additional information.

Some of the wounded security services personnel were transported to other cities.

I spoke to anti-Kiev forces who currently control most of the town, passers-by who witnessed the events, and the Ukrainian police and pro-Kiev self-defense units.

It is very hard to say at this point whether the Ukrainian government forces at the police station used excessive force.

My preliminary findings suggest that Ukrainian units might indeed have used excessive force near the drama theater, which resulted in deaths and injuries of some unarmed people.

Videos show that the crowd was large but unarmed, and the low numbers of wounded Ukrainian government forces suggests the same.

The wounded said they were marching back home from the demonstration.

Two of them, when pressed, said the Ukrainian forces may have opened fire in order provide cover for soldiers who were approaching the police building.

Anti-Kiev crowds had swarmed government troops earlier that day, so that might have been a factor they were considering.

A full, thorough investigation is needed to establish what exactly happened near the drama theater in Mariupol; what role was played by the unarmed crowds, as opposed to the armed men who seized the local police headquarters; to what extent they presented a threat to Ukrainian forces; and whether the use of force, including live ammunition, was justifiable and lawful under the circumstances.

It is the responsibility of the Ukrainian authorities to conduct such investigations in an impartial manner and inform the public about progress made.

In the meantime, anybody commenting on the events, including officials and journalists, should exercise utmost care and remember that their words and figures could be used to fan the flames in this already volatile situation.

Distortion of facts will not serve the need for justice for anyone killed unlawfully, nor will it help to salve the pain of families who lost their loved ones.

 Avakov's account of what happened was contested by some Mariupol residents, who spoke shortly after the incident with reporters from "The New York Times", the BBC, and "The Independent". The residents (many of whom showed their Ukrainian passports to prove they were not from Russia) said that the government had attacked local police who were sympathetic to protesters. One version of events, put forward by a group of residents cited by "The New York Times", was that the clash was sparked by Mariupol police rebelling against a new police chief sent by the interim government in Kiev. The BBC report included a video showing pro-Russian activists trying unsuccessfully to stop armoured vehicles from moving into the city.
 After the fighting the Ukrainian forces withdrew from the city, leaving it fully under control of pro-Russian protesters. The military retained control over checkpoints surrounding the city. The Ukrainian government said that its forces withdrew "to avoid further aggravation". The troops moving out of the city shot at unarmed civilians, according to "The Guardian".

# Boost for NSG membership, as India gains entry into 'Australia Group'

India is now a member of the Missile Technology Control Regime, the Wassenaar Arrangement as well as Australia GroupIndia

India today become a member of the 'Australia Group' (AG), a move that is expected to raise New Delhi's stature in the field of non-proliferation and also help it acquire critical technologies.

India is now a member of the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), the Wassenaar Arrangement (WA) as well as AG, three of four non-proliferation regimes.

The only one remaining is the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG).

India has managed entry into all three groups despite not being a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), and despite China's attempts to stonewall its bid to enter the NSG.

Read this story in BengaliAG is a cooperative and voluntary group of countries working to counter the spread of materials, equipment and technologies that could contribute to the development or acquisition of chemical and biological weapons by states or terrorist groups.

In December, India gained entry into WA.

In June last year, India joined the MTCR, another key export control regime, as a full member.

Significantly, China, which stonewalled India's entry into the 48-nation NSG is not a member of the WA or the MTCR, both of which play a significant role in promoting transparency and greater responsibility in transfers of conventional arms and dual-use goods and technologies.

Since its civil nuclear deal with the US, India has been trying to get into export control regimes such as the NSG, the MTCR, the Australia Group and the Wassenaar Arrangement that regulate the conventional, nuclear, biological and chemicals weapons and technologies.

India's extensive contribution to the War on Terror, coupled with a surge in its economy, has helped India's diplomatic relations with several countries. Over the past three years, India has held numerous joint military exercises with US and European nations that have resulted in a strengthened US-India and EU-India bilateral relationship. India's bilateral trade with Europe and United States had more than doubled in the five years since 2003.
 India has been pushing for reforms in the UN and WTO with mixed results. India's candidature for a permanent seat at the UN Security Council is currently backed by several countries including France, Russia, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, Brazil, Australia and UAE. In 2004, the United States signed a nuclear co-operation agreement with India even though the latter is not a part of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. The US argued that India's strong nuclear non-proliferation record made it an exception, however this has not persuaded other Nuclear Suppliers Group members to sign similar deals with India. During a state visit to India in November 2010, US president Barack Obama announced US support for India's bid for permanent membership to UN Security Council as well as India's entry to Nuclear Suppliers Group, Wassenaar Arrangement, Australia Group and Missile Technology Control Regime.
