TODAY'S TOP STORIES
*******************
Dr�s Kashmir prescription is warm and clinical
Less than a week after announcing a troop cut, the biggest confidence-building
measure that the Valley has seen in years, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh
arrived here with a Rs 24,000-crore plan and the promise of ��peace with
dignity.�� He tried reaching out to the hearts of Kashmiris by telling them how
this visit was a dream come true and referred to his own life that began in
Pakistan and was touched by ��the light of education.��

Disbelief and relief in both Army and residents as Anantnag pullout begins
Gunmen may have made an abortive bid to dampen spirits in Srinagar as the Prime
Minister flew in but here in Anantnag, Manmohan Singh�s newest
confidence-building measure was lifting spirits: Army trucks began pulling out,
soldiers waving at those by the roadside.

Food for Work gets food for thought: why not re-define work?
Does only physical labour � digging pits, lifting stones, levelling the ground
� qualify as work for food? As Prime Minister Manmohan Singh launched the
national Food for Work programme last Sunday, a debate is on over the issue,
spurred by a growing demand to expand the definition of ��work�� to include
unskilled labour in areas like health, education and sanitation too.

Murder most foul, city most free
Canals shine in the winter sun along the promenades of Amsterdam. The road from
Dam Square to the Tropical Museum runs through a typical European town centre.
Medieval buildings and modern shopfronts rise from cobblestone streets. Brown
leaves drift to the ground as cyclists thread past office-goers. Roses dance in
windows.

Discordant notes after the music leave many guessing
For the record, the Hurriyat reserved its reaction to the Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh�s visit for tomorrow when it holds a meeting. But, in private,
moderate leaders said they felt let down since there was little by way of a
signal for them to re-enter the stalled dialogue process.
