 The Blame Game
The CRESI committee was introduced to a crisis in today's session according to which Prime Minister Narendra Modi fires Education Minister Prakash Javedekar and considered Mr. Tanveer Sait as a potential candidate to Mr. Javedekar's position.

This desicion was not taken well by Amartya Sen and Kailash Satyarthi who called for presidential rule and called for nationwide protests. Smriti Irani was also supportive of this decision and joined hands with Amartya Sen and Kailash Satyarthi. 

 Tanveer Sait then makes allegations against Mr. Javedekar calling him a fraud and further goes on to accuse Mr. Javedekar of intentionally leaking the 2018 CBSE board papers. Mr. Shashi Tharoor had his own views on the CBSE paper leaks calling it propaganda and just a way to distract voters from the general elections. 

 The crisis then received an update stating: Amit Shah confirms Tanveer Sait's claims are true. Further, Sucheta De and Fairoz Khan decide that AILP should take action on this matter. Ghulam Nabi Azad offers support to the AILP movement. Prakash Javedekar then makes an absurd claim that he is "an old man and suffer from memory loss" which was received with disapproving headshakes, mocking laughter and a little bit of shock. 

 The BJP then turns on their education minister Prakash Javedekar. Amit Shah denies Prakash Javedekar's claim that he has any kind of mental illness and also says that Mr. Javedekar had to travel to Germany not for the treatment of his acclaimed mental illnesses but to run illegal businesses and scams. Following this, Kailash Satyarthi and Amartya Sen decided to campaign in favour of the AILP and BJP. 

 PM Modi appointed Smrithi Irani as MHRD. Frustrated, Prakash Javedekar blackmails PM Modi by accusing him of bribing ALLEN institutes. 

 The crisis ended with the committee voting on model papers submitted by the BJP and Congress bloc with BJP winning the majority vote and the crisis finally passing.

(editorial 2)                        Pros about keeping a gun August 30, 2018                     - by Shreya LN and Yamini R V Mohite First of all, in Qatar, possession of a firearm without a licence is punishable by a jail sentence of up to fourteen years. In committee, the pros and cons of civilians owning guns was being spoken about and the delegate of Afghanistan had quite a lot to say. In Afghanistan, firearms are provided to the civilians, or bought by the civilians with a license. The delegate of Afghanistan strongly stated that ‘most’ of the citizens use these guns for self-defence. It is very much possible that the civilians themselves may become non state actors by the influence of these firearms. But, this would not really happen if the background of the person the firearm or the licence for the firearm is being sold to is first checked and only then the licen...

The two Superpowers, China and the United States of America made two separate blocs. These blocs made two working papers as a draft to make a resolution. These two blocs were the only two blocs in the DISEC general assembly. The working paper of the bloc headed by the delegate of the United States of America was sponsored by the delegate of South Korea, the delegate of Germany, the delegate of the United Kingdom and the delegate of France. The working paper of the delegate of China was sponsored by the delegate of Russia, delegate of Iraq, delegate of Iran, delegate of Nepal and delegate of DPRK. The working paper of the delegate of China stated the need for an international organization like the ITU to help curb Cyber-warfare. The delegate of USA stated that that the UN Security Council can make a sub-body who's members would be elected by the general assembly and would create an international cyber-code. This will enable cyber-criminals to be caught. The bloc led by the delegate...

United States; Divided Thoughts

It is a widely acknowledged fact that the United States conducts itself in a hypocritical manner, and contradicts itself repeatedly in international forums. The Disarmament and International Security Council proved to be no different, and the press conference revealed the double standards the government has for its citizens. The United States has conducted itself in an entirely unfit manner, but somehow, it remains unsurprising. When asked informally, the delegate of the US said that she would refuse to answer any questions in the press conference, so it came as a surprise when she spoke on gun control regulations within the US. The delegate stated that the American government believes that the ownership of guns gives its citizens much needed peace of mind, and protection. When a member of the press quoted the horrifying statistics of gun violence in only 2018 within the US- Total number of incidents being 38,451; number of deaths being 9,650; number of children below the age of ...
