The annual Ground Water Report is out. Bureaucratic, it is essentially unreadable.
Water Audit is suing St. Helena under the doctrine of public trust. Their arrogance is matched only by their ignorance. We have thousands of wells in Napa County â up and down the river legally pumping out millions of gallons of water, daily. The output of St. Helenaâs two piddly wells, as a percentage of water pumped is akin to filling a wine glass with water from a swimming pool, and claiming to lower the water level.
Knowing this, any intelligent judge will throw this case out on its face.

IT is very unfortunate that at their very first test members of the People’s Alliance of the Gupkar Declaration in Kashmir split on the issue of delimitation of assembly constituencies. Mehbooba Mufti of the People’s Democratic Party refused to appear before the Delimitation Commission. All were agreed that the wrongs of Aug 4, 2019, should be undone first.
Delimitation is one of the most delicate and highly controversial problems in democratic governance. But it is also ignored until controversy catches up with it. The issue is simple. How do you draw up the boundaries of electoral constituencies in order to ensure fairness to all? Britain woke up pretty late to the problem. There is an electoral commission, a late entrant. It establishes boundary committees and evaluates its reports. Rules prescribe guidance.
