Meditation

सामाजिक
As a parent or at work, you’ll probably be called upon to mediate a dispute at some point in your life. You require diplomatic skills even if you won’t need to use them to negotiate international peace or halt a government shutdown. Skillful intervention works for settling which child gets to sit in the front seat or how to keep the office break room clean. It’s challenging to step into the middle of a disagreement, but it can also be rewarding if you can facilitate a solution. Implement these suggestions to mediate conflicts and enhance communications. Benefits of Mediation 1. Break through impasses. Sometimes people are unable to work things out on their own. Mediation offers outside assistance that can help them make progress. 2. Empower participants. While the mediator facilitates ...
The Dark Rule: Why Congress Went After India’s Institutions

The Dark Rule: Why Congress Went After India’s Institutions

BREAKING NEWS
Congress leaders have been showing their blatant disapproval of Indian Army Chief General Bipin Rawat’s stand with statements such as these: “Our Army Chief gives out statements like a sadak ka gunda (street thug)” says Sandeep Dixit, son of three-time chief minister of Delhi Sheila Dixit, a close confidant of Rahul Gandhi and a senior Congress leader, himself. Just a few days ago, Jairam Ramesh, a former minister in the previous Congress government and another Congress leader considered very close to Rahul Gandhi, defended an obscure writer who, in an extremist left publication, had compared General Rawat to the notorious British General Dyer. This sudden public opprobrium directed at India’s serving Army Chief, coming from the Congress party, may seem surprising to some, but there is a d...
Check contractors

Check contractors

घोटाला
Delay in public-utility government-projects involving civil-work like of fly-overs, bridges, buildings etc is mainly due to a modus-operandie between contractors and authorities in various government-departments. Contractors get delayed projects by bribing other concerned departments to delay supplies of construction-material to be supplied by public-authorities or shifting of system-lines like of sewage, water or electricity. Even courts are approached to give authenticity for such dramatic delays. Contractors then claim damages instead of being penalised. They get government-officers of their choice to arbitrate on exaggerated claims by colliding with such arbitrators. Union and state governments should look into such malpractices involving concerned ones of all ranks, and should...
Over-sale of medicines through change in packing: Strips of ten rather than fifteen may only be there

Over-sale of medicines through change in packing: Strips of ten rather than fifteen may only be there

TOP STORIES
Many drug-manufacturers in order to increase sale of their medicines have started packing medicine-strips with fifteen tablets or capsules in a strip rather than earlier ten. Idea behind such a move is to over-sale medicines because chemists usually sell medicines in full strips only, and unused tablets or capsules in part-strip are total waste for consumers. Only recently many medicines including like Amaryl-1, Telma-40 and Glyzid-M, Pan-D etc have been started being marketed in strips other than earlier of ten tablets or capsules. Several manufacturers of commonly advertised medicines like cough-lozenges have moved in reverse direction by having just eight cough-lozenges per strip rather than ten, only because consumers normally judge price of such commonly advertised medicines per strip...
तम्बाकू के ‘सादे पैकेट’ पर चित्रमय चेतावनी क्यों है अधिक प्रभावकारी? बाबी रमाकांत, सीएनएस (सिटीजन न्यूज़ सर्विस)

तम्बाकू के ‘सादे पैकेट’ पर चित्रमय चेतावनी क्यों है अधिक प्रभावकारी? बाबी रमाकांत, सीएनएस (सिटीजन न्यूज़ सर्विस)

सामाजिक
सिगरेट एवं अन्य तम्बाकू उत्पाद अधिनियम 2003 के तहत तम्बाकू उत्पाद के पैकेट पर, चित्रमय चेतावनी 1 जून 2009 से भारत में लागू हो पायी. पर इतना पर्याप्त नहीं है क्योंकि तम्बाकू महामारी पर अंकुश लगाये बिना असामयिक मृत्यु दर कम हो नहीं सकता. अब भारत को जन स्वास्थ्य के लिए, एक बड़ा कदम लेने की जरुरत है जो अनेक देशों में लागू है और तम्बाकू नियंत्रण में कारगर सिद्ध हुआ है: 'प्लेन पैकेजिंग' या सादे तम्बाकू पैकेट पर अधिक प्रभावकारी और बड़ी चित्रमय चेतावनी की नीति अब भारत में भी पारित होनी चाहिए. विश्व स्वास्थ्य संगठन के अनुसार, एकाकार गाढ़े भूरे रंग के अनाकर्षक तम्बाकू पैकेट ('प्लेन पैकेजिंग' या सादे पैकेट) पर बड़ी और प्रभावकारी चित्रमय चेतावनी ज्यादा असरकारी होती है. आशा परिवार के स्वास्थ्य को वोट अभियान के समन्वयक राहुल द्विवेदी ने कहा कि 'प्लेन पैकेजिंग' या सादे पैकेट पर, कोई ब्रांड, ब्रांड सम्बंधि...

Prime Minister should intervene to ensure TDP Parliamentarian JC Divakar Reddy gets sacked for hooliganism: No hope from Lok Sabha Speaker or Union Civil Aviation Minister

It refers to repeat-offender TDP Parliamentarian JC Divakar Reddy creating a ruckus at Vishakhapatnam Airport on 15.06.2017 when TV-visuals confirm that he pushed staffers of Indigo Airlines and unauthorisedly entered working-area of the airport in his bid to damage airport-property including a computer-printer, for which he was put in no-fly list by Indigo and some other airlines. Unruly law-maker in his media-statement has also boasted that his party-colleague Union Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Ganpati Raju who incidentally was present at the airport at that time, managed his entry into the flight even though he was late for getting the boarding-pass. It could not happen if Lok Sabha speaker would have taken strict-most action including suspension of Ravindra Gaekwad from m...
Corruption in constitutional bodies?

Corruption in constitutional bodies?

घोटाला
It refers to Goa Chief Minister manohar Parrikar having rightly raised a very valid point about possibilities corruption in constitutional bodies which are practically out of bounds from normal scrutiny. His direct reference was towards hefty conveyance-bill of rupees 16.86 crores sent by State election Office despite state-government having provided sufficient number of vehicles for poll-duty during elections to state-assemblies held in February 2017. Absolute power makes absolute corrupt. In case presently there does not exist any system for audit of expenses in constitutional bodies, then a system must be formulated to audit all constitutional bodies where there is usually high level of corruption at least on expenses-side. There should be adequate and proper checks and balances...

Audio and video recording of court-proceedings necessary: Feasibility of live telecast on website needs study first

EXCLUSIVE NEWS
Union Law Ministry had some years ago taken initiative for introducing video-recording of court-proceedings. But there has been no further progress so far in the matter. Suggestions for video-recording of courts’ proceedings are being floated for quite some now which is not at all difficult and expensive in present-days’ advanced technology. Steps should be taken for immediate implementation of the much-needed project at least at Supreme Court and High Courts. Rather there should be a system of audio-recording of complete courts’ proceedings. Copies of these audio-tapes may also be supplied to recognised media-subscribers on payment after the courts’ proceedings are over for the day to avoid any chance of misreporting of courts’ proceedings. Such audio-recordings will also provide a justif...

Cricket-team of Board for Control of cricket in India-BCCI lost badly to cricket-team of Pakistan Cricket Board-PCB in final of Champion Trophy 2017 on 19.06.2017 at London. Various undertakings under central and state-governments race for awarding huge money and other public-assets to each member of BCCI cricket-team in addition to heavy award-money for even single match-winning performance. Each member of BCCI cricket-team got rupees two crores each on their winning World-Cup cricket-final when some of the cricketers found earlier declared rupees one-crore award-money insufficient. But if our money-minting ultra super-rich cricketers can be showered with enormous amount of award-money over and above normal match-fees and monthly and other allowances from public-funds, then they should fe...
