2:31 pm
a debate. very welcome to. it's good to have you with us indians have been on the streets since last month for testing a new citizenship poll introduced by the government the law provides of due to indian citizenship for persecuted religious minorities from neighboring countries everyone except muslims that is. now that all says that this law in conjunction with the head count of residents in the country could affect citizenship rights of india's muslims numbering 200000000 that's if the government asked for documents many especially for indians don't have either because one of militia just followed reports from was a foreigner in the state of. delhi

is out on the street and it has been called weeks now caught up to body that an amended citizenship law combined with a national population register could disenfranchise minorities this has both a rallying cry in father died it be with those who don't have that i documents we won't show up people. if the authorities come knocking but even of them could be in trouble. he does have documents. a water identification card and a government mandated id. but in each his name is spelled differently in one it starts with a b. in another or his name is split into 2 me with ease instead of an i this is because the government workers who helped him fill out the forms try to spell out his own do name for medically. and the english spelling is
2:33 pm
a patchwork of guesses. they didn't even ask me if my name was spelled correctly i could have at least corrected theirs in hindi i can't read in english so i couldn't correct that anyways and now if the government starts scrutinizing this closely we will of course get into trouble what is on the on the island. the problem runs across the family. in his father's documents and in those office 7 children. these seemingly innocuous mistakes could lead to questions about their lineage is reading of the in the son of. do his children have the same father the one who has lived in india all his life and they could need answers soon already the government is doing out a national population register which will ask for their parents date and place of book. birth and death search affects the clearest way to saw a person's lineage are not common in villages like these if these documents i

eventually used to grant citizenship rights the fallout one just taught muslims. these men are hindu but they are wanted to they belong to castes that have been historically oppressed in india many do not own land if the lack of proof leads to a loss of citizenship that could affect watering rights access to welfare and even the right to work. somebody jurors are trying to help explain what the new rules mean. but it is still unclear what the government could ask and getting that i documents will not be easy. daily wage labor days standing in line trying to apply for documents. or they will have to pay opportunistic brokers through the nose on this one just beginning all communities the government dismisses such concerns and says that legal indian citizens will not be affected
2:35 pm
the z.b.b. does hear us say that they are drumming up support for the new rules to outreach i'm drowning over broken about the opposition is stoking these fees for those who want to oppose the new law through disruptions and mischief what we want that their tactics will not be tolerated will go. but but you know the is not taking any risks . his full month old daughter is the 1st of his children to have a birth certificate it clearly states hope bad inflamed i'm pleased the book hokie him to indian citizenship but honey is spelled wrong not to fight. for more i'm joined by the author of that report did a blue correspondent. in delhi and we should good to see you why is it so hard to get a document that proves somebody is indian well british over here and of those who do have documents have
2:36 pm
a variety of documents that have water identification cards as a unique id that the government issues they may have phosphors than we have driving licenses however no one document the scene as a clear proof of indian citizenship and then on top of that there are issues with trying to get these documents survived as we saw in the report small mistakes can be common and when somebody tries to go through the process of collecting these mistakes this can be a long bureaucratic process it can be expensive to try to use brokers and it's simply not an option for everybody to go through the process of getting the correct set of the perfect set of documents meet people also going to get booking that sort of that gets made which basically means that when the time comes when the government asks for the documents from people they may not have the right set of documents and this is creating panic on the show just to be clear the new citizenship law does not directly affect indian citizens all the quire them to produce a new documents of any sort why then all this discussion about producing documents
2:37 pm
. that is exactly right position fact the indian government and political leaders have repeatedly easy to be said that the c.e.o. of the citizenship amendment act will not impact valid indian citizens this is something the government has held strong on but the concerns of protesters an open and out about how this amendment can be used in combination with other policies the government has proposed a national population just to find out what the usual vestments of india and even find out what the limits of these indians as weather patterns were born with cities they were born in van they were born and this ties in with the current citizenship act and it would allow for the government to develop this off usually residential use with citizens and also have a list of doubtful citizens and people why did the national population just stuck and then become a base document for the government to weed out those who don't have that i
2:38 pm
documents and who can then be considered doubtful and perhaps even left out also does place in india the 3rd b. but for the time being want to. speak draws from delhi thank you very much. to pakistan but a high court has overturned the death sentence and that the former president and a military. but of his more so about the high court said there is no court that had that the sentence was formed unconstitutionally musharraf was caught on tape in self-imposed exile in dubai was found guilty of treason in absentia last month the long running case centers on the general's decision in 2007 to suspend the constitution and declared a state of emergency when he was running the country. when the original sentence was delivered it was seen by some as a message that the military isn't above them all so are we back to square one now. in islamabad well everyone thought the initial decision came out that it
2:39 pm
was a very symbolic situation. successful but democratic forces the for the 1st time you saw that military dictator was punished but now everybody was wondering you know how would the military react to it because the military to get ready seriously and to condemn that decision and now we know that it's back to square one and rhetoric was the shots and boxed on the military demands a very popular institution and now the situation is that it's all back to square one as you said it is a big defeat for pro-democracy forces it's not over yet british but i believe that it is if it just check back to all those who thought that quantity in august on a military dictator who while the constitution would be brought to justice this has not happened and it is a setback for all pro-democracy forces and. the support of caught on tape makes its olympic debut do some a it's

a moment that athletes who practice this muscle off have long been waiting for but the move has sparked some backlash as well. japan is the spiritual home of karate. and key you she meets who is going for gold this sunday because you're going to want of course the high expectations around me create a lot of pressure but i think i'll do it with a clear conscience step by step opponent if you. she needs to discover karate at the age of 9 and after 3 years already had a black belt today at 26 she's a 3 time world champion. it's about a kind of dent in competitive karate you compete in one of 2 categories or can you take both have their charm and i hope that more and more people get the opportunity to experience both types of karate life. is a fake fight against an imaginary opponent the goal is the perfect flow of

a choreography in competition a fighter can choose from 102 different cut ties. the fascinating thing about cutter is that despite it being a fixed form i can express myself really personally. also matures the time the longer you practice the kata the more depth and meaning it can acquire. so on that it's all they get along with. the 2nd category is called and it is a duel with a very real opponent dangerous techniques are forbidden here that means on the protected upper body a controlled bit of force is ok but on the head the so-called skin touches the limit. of a hit to the head is worth 3 points a hit to the torso is worth 2 points and a normal kick is worth one point. at the request of the international olympic committee the your valuation system for both categories 1st had to be made suitable

for the olympic games this is a break in tradition for the sport which has developed steadily over generations. one of the most important karate teachers in japan is cut so hero to yama sensei he's been training karate for more than 50 years and takes a critical view of the changes karate has undergone. funniest to the traditional japanese martial art but the new generation holiday season very. sporting so many competitions and prices i try to unite the old onto the spirit of competition for example at the wellcome of everything in ca to every training every fight begins and ends with respect and decency. tradition meets commercialization but many in japan see the change positively and. a centuries old sport will feel at home and perhaps refresh to tokyo 2020. 5 to get the olympics that's going to be watched watching that's all the debate will leave you
