US Defence Secretary resigns over withdrawal of troops in Syria

(UNI) US Defense Secretary James Mattis has resigned after clashing with President Donald Trump over the abrupt withdrawal of US troops from Syria, citing irreconcilable policy differences in a move that took Washington by surprise.
“Because you have the right to have a Secretary of Defence, whose views are better aligned with yours on these and other subjects, I believe it is right for me to step down from my position,” Mattis wrote in his letter to the President.
Indeed, Mattis’ resignation letter amounts to a rebuke of several of Trump’s foreign policy views, with the outgoing defence secretary touting the importance of US alliances and of being “unambiguous” in approaching adversaries such as Russia and China. It is devoid of any praise for the President.

James Rodriguez: “I’m only thinking about Bayern Munich”

(UNI)Colombian midfielder James Rodriguez has refused to speculate about his future beyond this season, saying he is focused only on performing well for Bayern Munich.
Rodriguez has struggled for form and fitness since joining the German club on a two-year loan deal from Real Madrid in July 2017.
“My present is with Bayern Munich, I have a contract with them until June,” Rodriguez told reporters here on Thursday. “I’m fine there, I’m calm. In June we will see what happens but right now I am only thinking about Bayern.”
Rodriguez said he is recovering steadily from a knee ligament injury and hopes to return to full fitness early in 2019.
He denied reports of a rift between the players and coach Niko Kovac following the team’s unimpressive start to the season.
Bayern Munich are currently third in the Bundesliga standings, six points behind leaders Borussia Dortmund approaching the season’s midway point.
“Bayern has a healthy squad that is good [together], and there is no issue at all with Kovac,” the playmaker added.

HC allows BJP to hold Rath Yatra in Bengal

( UNI) Calcutta High Court today gave green signal to BJP to hold the rath yatra named “Save Democracy”, a major win for the state saffron party which fought out a legal battle for over a week to take out the rallies in several districts of West Bengal.
Laying down a set of conditions for the rallies, the single-bench judge Tapabrata Ckakraborty observed that the rallies must not cause any convenience to the public and must be peaceful in nature.
The bench also asked the police to be on alert to ensure safety when the rallies would be taken out and directed the saffron party to maintain peace during the yatra.
The BJP had filed an appeal before the court on Monday after the ruling Trinamool Congress denied it permission for the second time.

President takes dim view of food wastage, says farmers must be taken as partners by food processors

New Delhi, Dec 20 (UNI) Taking a dim view of food wastage in a country like India “with undeniable inequalities in income and consumption’’, President Ram Nath Kovind on Thursday said that it does not just pose economic questions but moral as well. Addressing the Platinum Jubilee Conference of All-India Food Processors Association here, he said while food wastage can easily be prevented by better and more rational food distribution, the issue of post-harvest wastage was still more pressing.

` A few years ago, a report by the Central Institute of Post-Harvest Engineering and Technology had estimated the value of such waste at almost Rs 100,000 crore. This is a tragedy,’’ he said.<br>“A majority of our agriculturalists are engaged in subsistence farming. Their produce is a source of sustenance for them. If it is damaged or destroyed because of inadequate storage or logistics, the livelihood of innocent families is hurt,’’ he pointed out.
