THE DEMAND FOR BHARAT’S HISTORICAL RETELLING.
One thing we should hope from our center-right Govt atleast in the next term, is having clocked enough yrs in power at Centre, to find the confidence to entrust bonafide reputed world-famous historians from the centre-right stream, with the responsibility of atleast adding their perspectives to all the one-sided narrative of Indian history enshrined in Indian textbooks over past 200 yrs since textbooks writing began in India. Especially relevant for (a bonafide film historian atleast) backdoor historians like me in general, one in know of ideas of deep electoral injustice meted out by the electoral machinery to the center-right over the past 75 yrs since Independence. Only apt if there actually always has been deep popularity for the solid spiritually anchored centre-right narrative, muffled in competitive voice by the whip of the chugging center-left bullock cart. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0U5GuxtUBU
Eg. 1.
DID YOU KNOW, HOW INDIA GOT IT'S INDEPENDENCE....ACTUALLY? : - THE DEMAND FOR HISTORICAL RETELLING, EXEMPLIFIED. Till March 1945, per documents of the time, the British Chiefs of Staff were actually planning how to rule India for the next 15 yrs. There was no question of giving India independence till then! Then what led to the sudden use of the word 'independence' for the first time in a British PM statement, as he announced the Cabinet Commission to India in Feb 1946? Ans - It happened just a day after, THE GREAT GRAND ROYAL INDIAN NAVY MUTINY OF 1946, REACHED ALL THE INDIAN PORTS! The Brits knew that this level of opposition among their own defenses would be unmanageable & losing their forces would effectively mean 'losing India', a far more humiliating prospect than it's benevolent charitable return! (Remember that famous & widely documented Atlee interview in India yrs after his PM'ship? - When asked why he ever gave away Indian Independence, a retired Atlee actually revealed to say, "Because of Bose!"). You see the Brits had managed to POLITICALLY (VIA FORMAL LEADERSHIP) curb Indian uprising for close to 40-50 yrs before it, as center-right historians allege via the quiet collusion of the Congress Party with the Crown, in their view a puppet opposition created by the Brits themselves, to offer itself mere token oppn, in return for getting to stay as the perpetual chief & most revered respected oppn party of India all thru British rule (that measured by the level of importance given to them by Brits themselves), helped along in turn, by Congress's jointly designed public tactic of 'Ahinsa'. But when the Indian forces got split down the middle, infact perhaps down the 3/4th line, a 1857 redux scenario svp, were left with no option given it's own severely depleted post WW2 military strength, than their grand face-saving charitable gesture! Watch below video from 1:11:00 - 1:14:00. ( http://youtube.com/watch?v=z0U5GuxtUBU )
And below btw is Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, Father of India's Constitution, attesting to exactly the same above description & explanation, for the events solely responsible for India's 'bewilderingly sudden' Independence, in his famous BBC interview of 1955. "The Britishers had built their entire rule over India, on the calculated belief, that whatever the (personally nurtured) Indian politician might keep doing, the Indian soldier would never break from them. But when that near impossibility too happened, & at a stage in history when the European soldier was unwilling to stay on in India, that was it.."(paraphrased) (Hear 10:10 - 12:50) ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dJETivg7nw )
Eg. 2.
Just found this startling new information on the power structure of 'Independent India' for more than a decade, after 1947. Pray why did we have British Air Force Chiefs of India for 7 yrs (till 1954), & British Navy Chiefs of India for 11 yrs (till 1958), after (so called) independence ??? 1. https://ssbcrackexams.com/list-of-indian-navy-admirals/ 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chief_of_the_Air_Staff_
Eg. 3
Some startling & perhaps previously unknown info on Subhash Chandra Bose's Indian National Army / Azad Hind Fauj ! And how & why they met their unjust sad fate upon disbanding. - By renowned historian Prof Kapil Kumar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkKolCMvCv8 & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CMP7P5AME0 __ Also some more startling discussions on Subhash Chandra Bose, by Prof Kapil Kumar, that despite being based not entirely on solid facts, but also many hearsays, even if new ones, will (oh that moment when "His Majesty is safe!" gets uttered!) give you real goosebumps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ugBNUdVEVI
Eg. 4
Shocked to find certain facts about Mahatma Gandhi, from a book titled 'The South African Gandhi', by Desai & Vahed, which has actual quotes from Mahatma Gandhi urging Indians to FIGHT for the British during the Boer war of WW1 when in South Africa, even more ghastly being the reasons purportedly advocated by him for the same, namely, "To give Indians an opportunity at a thorough training in actual warfare"! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZOmt7hmd-4 https://twitter.com/rishibagree/status/983600498166128641 __ Further corroborated by these articles, which speaks of the columns written by Mahatma Gandhi when in South Africa, advocating recruitment of soldiers, in the fight against black resistance there, people he went on to call "kaafirs"! (And I'm sure the veracity of these info can be easily established given that it's core is based on actual newspaper editions) IF TRUE, again corroborating the duplicitous bigotry, which comes across as a regular feature, esp as alleged by a certain section of society, in his politics. http://www.mysteryofindia.com/2014/07/gandhi-was-racist-part-2.html __ As also this historians' interview, unraveling several such document-verifiable & many own published letters & printed quotes-verifiable instances, allegedly per them exposing the same continuous duplicity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIiY1xPxPtE & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyRYKj1J_90 __ IF TRUE, this seems to expose all his later non-violent yrs in India, to be some sort of a sham, so as to keep British rulers in India safe from any local uprisings. This, given all the rest of the findings we've already blogged on previously here. https://tooter.in/IndieSole/posts/108611988817146626 https://tooter.in/IndieSole/posts/108887615159759044 https://tooter.in/IndieSole/posts/108941277554901650 ___ ( PS. When we critically appraise our pre-independence leaders, we ofcourse do not nullify their big sacrifice in going to jail for yrs, & several times so, alongside lakhs such freedom fighters. Also in this context > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4lQRX6Cxig&list=LL&index=3 ) But given the heavily contradictory intent displayed in past, try put things in perspective, ofcourse per our perspective based on info available till today, & if more facts disproving above info is brot to light, would be most happy to incorporate the same & amend our critique.
Eg. 5
INNER POLITICS OF INDIA'S MOST PIVOTAL POLITICAL TIMES.
KHILAFAT...OF WHAT? A key presentation, by noted historian Abhijit Chavda, on 'The Turkish origins of India's partition'. Also clandestinely & indirectly, continuing to ask the same old qu, that has bothered onlookers for past 75 yrs- "Was Gandhi inherently a pro-Muslim or Muslim-biased British secularist"? All revolving around the invasion & takeover by the great military general Mustafa Kemal ie Ataturk, of the Ottoman Caliphate ie the last of 4 Islamic Caliphates, Islamic Caliphates that ruled & overlorded over the combined region of South-Eastern Europe, North Africa & West Asia, for ~1300 yrs, from early 600's to early 1900's. Gandhi was so seemingly agitated by this world event totally disconnected from his part of the world, that he pushed the entire Indian populace into opposing such a destruction of this supposedly revered Caliphate structure, that almost entire nation of India wasn't even aware of, infact a support that most Hindu accounts of the time divulge as having been procured on the sly, in guise of this "Khilafat (Urdu for 'Opposition') Movement" phrasology, making it sound like some routine anti-British movement. Ironically enuf, twas Mr. Jinnah,a totally diff politician in 1920s to what associated with few yrs later by 1940s, who then opposed Gandhi,for unnecessarily dividing Indian masses along religious lines,& sowing hardline religious positions among the populace. Yet twas the blind following Gandhi attracted, & that'd cruelly thrown Jinnah into wilderness, that forced him to change his soulful political style,into the conniving cunning ruthless politician of a few yrs later,fashioning self along Ataturk's lines,to be "Father of Pak",as Gandhi had become for Indians,& Mustafa Kemal for Turks. Tis another matter,Kemal,totally transformed his nation,by disbanding every trace of previous Islamic structure,into one o' most curious nations ever-with completely Muslim popn,yet completely non-Islamic system. That's when,curiously enuf,Gandhi's oppn to it too stopped. While Jinnah,based his partition,into Ind & Pak,solely along Islamic lines,& rule of Sharia law,only way for him to justify partition.And ofcourse none know what steps Mr. Jinnah could've taken,being true moderate secularist at heart,as most who knew him all his life vouch for,with dust settled,& his place in pantheon of world leaders permanently estd,to be more along Turkey's exalted lines,a nation he'd come to greatly admire by then,by every known acc,since passed away soon after Pak's founding.. But key contentions- Why did Gandhi support Christian(Turk Ottoman was 1/3rd Chr)defense of Ottoman,but opposed Hindu defense to Muslim aggression in Ind,as seen many times? Why was he openly in favor of Jinnah or Nehru for Ind's PM'ship,but opposed Patel tooth & nail,after Brits left? If he was against violence,why volunteered Ind help to Brits in WWI,& not opposed the war as his morality demanded? Pft. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Erxm70VGjfE

Anticipating UPSC as a vocation?
Humanities/Expressions is one of the broadest courses proposed to understudies after the tenth sheets. Given its scope of subjects and the fields of studies it opens up for the future, Expressions has turned into a go-to choice for understudies looking towards a powerful profession.
A significant vocation fascination has been the UPSC Syllabus (Civil Administration test) subsequent to seeking after Expressions. Viewed as the behemoth of all tests the Association Public Help Commission assessments are held for enrollment in the Common administrations of India.
Led in 3 phases and covering pretty much every subject known, these tests are the most cutthroat of the part. The closures legitimize the sturdiness as the people who figure out how to clear them all get chosen for the profoundly desired Gathering An and Gathering B govt. administrations.
All in all, what is the connection between the tests for a Level 1 government work and Expressions as a choice?
An extremely fundamental relationship exists between the two of them. We will examine that exhaustively, yet how about we start with the nuts and bolts.
Advanced education decisions through Expressions/Humanities
The exploratory subjects on offer in humanities open up different roads in advanced education. A few wide divisions of them are as per the following:
Conventional courses like a Single men in Financial matters, History, Geology, Humanities, Language and Writing, Reasoning, Brain research, Expressive arts, The executives, Music, Lodging The board, and so forth.
Regulation in a coordinated course design, for example BA+LLB or BBA+LLB
Specialized courses in Design or Single men in PC Applications.
Center administration courses like BBA or BMS.
Single man courses in style and planning
As one can notice, there is no shortage of choices once an understudy picks Humanities as a significant. Furthermore, presently we will investigate how these subjects help in the journey for UPSC.
The assessment construction of Common Administrations tests
The Common Administrations paper is led in 3 phases, the remainder of which is a meeting/character test. The initial two phases are the Prelims and the Mains. We should investigate the schedule for both these stages.
Design of Prelims Test
The prelims comprise of paper 1 and 2.
Paper 1 assesses an up-and-comer’s information on Indian history, strategy, administration, financial matters, Indian and world topography, natural status, science, craftsmanship, and culture. An understudy from Expressions foundation would be knowledgeable with a large portion of these subjects, in particular history, topography, country, financial matters and general ecological issues (both of India and the world)
Paper 2 is an overall test and is qualifying in nature. It intends to test your scientific and consistent abilities to think, appreciation abilities, mental capacity, and information understanding. These subjects or rather wide areas of studies fall under no exceptional stream and could be created on by any understudy with customary and determined practice. Besides, an understudy need not stress a lot over this paper as need might arise to score just 33% of imprints in it to become qualified for reviewing in Paper 1.
Construction of Mains Test
The Mains are a very much coaxed series of 9 papers out of which 2 are qualifying and 7 are positioned. The passing papers are named Paper An and B. Paper An is of a rundown of Indian dialects (counting English) introduced by the commission, out of which the competitor needs to pick one. Paper B is of the English language.
How does Expressions/Humanities stream help?
While the Prelims are just a venturing stone, the Mains are viewed as the stage which represents the deciding moment a candidature. At the point when you take a gander at the subjects for the General examinations papers, one sees an undeniable benefit in an Expressions understudy who has proactively arranged these in school. It will involve simple amendment for them while others need to concentrate regarding these matters without any preparation.
Most of subjects for the two Prelims and Mains contain the prospectus educated to understudies in Artistic expressions stream. Subjects like History, Nation, Financial aspects, Civics, and Topography are repeating points generally all through the assessment method. On the off chance that one has an unmistakable base of these from ahead of time, the fight is now half-won.
Besides, subjects like Brain science, Reasoning, Social science, Catastrophe the executives and Morals, which are a vital piece of the Mains paper are accessible as choices for Expressions understudies in their educational program.
One should not believe school prospectus to be less of groundwork for a test this large. Every one of the supportive instructional exercises and training focuses request that their understudies begin fabricating their base by concentrating on Human expressions educational plan from their school schedule.
The test design is ready to be sweeping and reasonable to all pieces of the nation, so the prospectus seldom goes astray from the nuts and bolts. Albeit a wannabe ought to likewise clearly separated from setting up these completely look towards additional direction as well.
The greater part of the accomplished refer to self-concentrate as the best strategy for an intensive and clear comprehension of the subjects and the test. What’s more, albeit an extended period of totally submerged reading up is viewed as enough for planning, the previous you start the more ready you will be. So in the event that you wish to seek after the Common administrations as your vocation point, Expressions is certainly going to give you the additional edge to do as such.

Brazil Probe: Did Bolsonaro Govt Overpay for Bharat Biotech's Covaxin Doses?
[Image description: Brazil President Jair Bolsonaro at a ceremony of the Plano Safra 2020/2021, an action plan for the agricultural sector, in Brasilia, June 22, 2021.]
A piece of paper – an invoice – sent by mail from one corner of the world to another could be the smoking gun in the widening investigation into corruption in the deal that may blow to bits the image of an Indian company and sink some top politicians in this country. The invoice, sent by an offshore firm of the Indian vaccine maker Bharat Biotech, to the Brazilian government was the focus of the hearing at the parliamentary commission of inquiry (CPI) on Friday, as the whole country watched the proceedings live with emotions running high at the chamber as well as on social networks.
The country has been on edge since Tuesday when it was alleged by a federal deputy, Luis Miranda, that he and his brother Ricardo, the chief of import division at the ministry of health, had met President Jair Bolsonaro on March 20 and alerted him about an invoice of $45 million raised by a Madison Biotech, a Singapore-based firm, for advance payment in the $300 million1 contract between the Brazilian government and Bharat Biotech of India for 20 million doses of Covaxin. As the Singapore company was not part of the contract, Ricardo Miranda refused to clear the invoice, he claimed in an interview, and went to Bolsonaro.
The decision of the Bolsonaro government, which had shown a little interest in getting vaccines for the country, to sign a contract at $15 a dose, has become a full-blown scandal with 24×7 media coverage being followed by millions. With explosive leaks coming out almost in real time, a top television commentator called the investigation ��CovaxinGate” on Thursday; soon stories about the vaccine were being shared with #CovaxinGate on social media. Some senators have even called it a “Passages to India”, sarcastically playing on the name of a hugely popular television soap-opera shown a few years ago. With eight out of 10 people in the country supporting the CPI proceedings, people have been anxious to know if there was corruption in the deal.
In the past week, the senators leading the probe have appeared confident that Madison Biotech’s invoice is the piece of evidence that will lead to a trail of tax evasion, money-laundering and bribery in the deal between Brazilian government and the Indian firm, represented here by Precisa Medicamentos.

About: Iron-Manganese based alloy Fe-Mn (having Mn composition of more than 29% by weight) is a promising biodegradable metallic implant which exhibits single austenitic phase (non-magnetic form of iron) with MRI compatibility. The alloy also showed a degradation rate in the range of 0.14-0.026 mm per year in the simulated body fluid, which means that the Fe-Mn alloy exhibits mechanical integrity for 3-6 months and completely disappears from the body in 12-24 months. The newly developed Fe-Mn based alloys are suitable for biodegradable stent and orthopedic implant applications. Important Info : Significance: These Biodegradable materials (Fe, Mg, Zn, and polymer) can participate in the healing process and then degrade gradually by maintaining the mechanical integrity without leaving any implant residues in the human body.These are better alternatives to currently used metallic implants which remain permanently in the human body and can cause long-term side effects like systemic toxicity, chronic inflammation, and thrombosis.

About: The proposed model of Tour of Duty (ToD) has been proposed to be implemented on a trial basis for officers and other ranks in the army for a limited number of vacancies which would be increased later if the model is successful. The proposal is a shift from the concept of permanent service in the armed forces towards an “internship” for 3 years. The army is also examining giving a ‘token’ lump sum amount to officers and jawans exiting from the ToD scheme, to make it more attractive. Important Info : Expected benefits: Army will benefit by getting younger manpower and the society will benefit by getting people who are disciplined and have imbibed the ethos of the army.The cost, including training, pay and allowances, incurred on people joining under the new model would be Rs 80-85 lakhs, as compared to over Rs 6 crore for an officer under the Short Service Commission, who serve up to 14 years.With the ToD concept implementation, there is likely to be an exponential reduction in salary and pension budgets. These savings can be used for Army’s modernisation.Corporates can also benefit from individuals who would serve in the army for three years due to their training and exposure.

At present, the ceremonial President’s Bodyguard (PBG) based at Rashtrapati Bhavan and the 61st Cavalry are the only horse-mounted units in the Army. Important Info : Proposed Plan: The aim is to transform the Jaipur-based 61st Cavalry into “a combat force” from its present role of being “largely a ceremonial unit” that also engages in sporting activities like polo.The commanding officer (CO) of 61st Calvary, which is likely to be rechristened the 61st Armoured Regiment at Jaipur, will have three “independent squadrons” of tanks under him.It has sparked outrage among purists in military circles, who assert the “short-sighted step will destroy a glorious historical tradition”.

It orbits at a location between Venus and Earth from the parent star. The planet was discovered using a technique called ‘Gravitational Microlensing’ where the combined gravity of the planet and its host star causes light from a more distant background star to be magnified in a particular manner. Important Info : Super Earth? What is it? It is an extrasolar planet with a mass higher than Earth's, but substantially below the masses of the Solar System's ice giants, Uranus and Neptune.What is it not?

Previous cases: The previous most famous case of coronavirus infection among cats, big or domestic, has been that of four-year-old Nadia, a Malayan tiger at New York’s Bronx Zoo. She tested positive in April 2020. Within weeks, a few more tigers and lions at the zoo tested positive. Among domestic cats, the first known infection happened in Belgium. Recent research: The key finding in recent research is that cats can be asymptomatic while carrying the virus. Also, all the cats went on to clear the virus. The latest findings suggest that cats may be capable of becoming infected when exposed to people or other cats positive for SARS-CoV-2. Other researchers have previously suggested reasons why cats may be vulnerable to infection from humans: feline and human cells have similar ACE2 receptors, which are enzymes that facilitate the coronavirus’s entry in the body. The general view remains that a cat is more likely to get Covid-19 from a human, than a human getting it from a cat.

The Aedes aegypti mosquito is the main vector that transmits the viruses that cause dengue. It is found in tropical and sub-tropical climates worldwide, mostly in urban and semi-urban areas. It is very common after rainy season. Once infected, humans become the main carriers and multipliers of the virus, serving as a source of the virus for uninfected mosquitoes. The infection causes flu-like illness, and occasionally develops into lethal complication called severe dengue. Dengue can affect everybody, irrespective of their age and gender.

Humanities/Expressions is one of the broadest courses proposed to understudies after the tenth sheets. Given its scope of subjects and the fields of studies it opens up for the future, Expressions has turned into a go-to choice for understudies looking towards a powerful profession.
A significant vocation fascination has been the UPSC Syllabus (Civil Administration test) subsequent to seeking after Expressions. Viewed as the behemoth of all tests the Association Public Help Commission assessments are held for enrollment in the Common administrations of India.
Led in 3 phases and covering pretty much every subject known, these tests are the most cutthroat of the part. The closures legitimize the sturdiness as the people who figure out how to clear them all get chosen for the profoundly desired Gathering An and Gathering B govt. administrations.
All in all, what is the connection between the tests for a Level 1 government work and Expressions as a choice?
An extremely fundamental relationship exists between the two of them. We will examine that exhaustively, yet how about we start with the nuts and bolts.
Advanced education decisions through Expressions/Humanities
The exploratory subjects on offer in humanities open up different roads in advanced education. A few wide divisions of them are as per the following:
Conventional courses like a Single men in Financial matters, History, Geology, Humanities, Language and Writing, Reasoning, Brain research, Expressive arts, The executives, Music, Lodging The board, and so forth.
Regulation in a coordinated course design, for example BA+LLB or BBA+LLB
Specialized courses in Design or Single men in PC Applications.
Center administration courses like BBA or BMS.
Single man courses in style and planning
As one can notice, there is no shortage of choices once an understudy picks Humanities as a significant. Furthermore, presently we will investigate how these subjects help in the journey for UPSC.
The assessment construction of Common Administrations tests
The Common Administrations paper is led in 3 phases, the remainder of which is a meeting/character test. The initial two phases are the Prelims and the Mains. We should investigate the schedule for both these stages.
Design of Prelims Test
The prelims comprise of paper 1 and 2.
Paper 1 assesses an up-and-comer's information on Indian history, strategy, administration, financial matters, Indian and world topography, natural status, science, craftsmanship, and culture. An understudy from Expressions foundation would be knowledgeable with a large portion of these subjects, in particular history, topography, country, financial matters and general ecological issues (both of India and the world)
Paper 2 is an overall test and is qualifying in nature. It intends to test your scientific and consistent abilities to think, appreciation abilities, mental capacity, and information understanding. These subjects or rather wide areas of studies fall under no exceptional stream and could be created on by any understudy with customary and determined practice. Besides, an understudy need not stress a lot over this paper as need might arise to score just 33% of imprints in it to become qualified for reviewing in Paper 1.
Construction of Mains Test
The Mains are a very much coaxed series of 9 papers out of which 2 are qualifying and 7 are positioned. The passing papers are named Paper An and B. Paper An is of a rundown of Indian dialects (counting English) introduced by the commission, out of which the competitor needs to pick one. Paper B is of the English language.
How does Expressions/Humanities stream help?
While the Prelims are just a venturing stone, the Mains are viewed as the stage which represents the deciding moment a candidature. At the point when you take a gander at the subjects for the General examinations papers, one sees an undeniable benefit in an Expressions understudy who has proactively arranged these in school. It will involve simple amendment for them while others need to concentrate regarding these matters without any preparation.
Most of subjects for the two Prelims and Mains contain the prospectus educated to understudies in Artistic expressions stream. Subjects like History, Nation, Financial aspects, Civics, and Topography are repeating points generally all through the assessment method. On the off chance that one has an unmistakable base of these from ahead of time, the fight is now half-won.
Besides, subjects like Brain science, Reasoning, Social science, Catastrophe the executives and Morals, which are a vital piece of the Mains paper are accessible as choices for Expressions understudies in their educational program.
One should not believe school prospectus to be less of groundwork for a test this large. Every one of the supportive instructional exercises and training focuses request that their understudies begin fabricating their base by concentrating on Human expressions educational plan from their school schedule.
The test design is ready to be sweeping and reasonable to all pieces of the nation, so the prospectus seldom goes astray from the nuts and bolts. Albeit a wannabe ought to likewise clearly separated from setting up these completely look towards additional direction as well.
The greater part of the accomplished refer to self-concentrate as the best strategy for an intensive and clear comprehension of the subjects and the test. What's more, albeit an extended period of totally submerged reading up is viewed as enough for planning, the previous you start the more ready you will be. So in the event that you wish to seek after the Common administrations as your vocation point, Expressions is certainly going to give you the additional edge to do as such.

BJP-led Assam state in India criticized for announcing 55,000 new government jobs ahead of elections
New Post has been published on http://khalilhumam.com/bjp-led-assam-state-in-india-criticized-for-announcing-55000-new-government-jobs-ahead-of-elections/
BJP-led Assam state in India criticized for announcing 55,000 new government jobs ahead of elections
The BJP felt short of its promises of creating jobs and cleaning up corruption in the rural state

The government of India's Assam state, led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is facing public criticism online after it announced it will create 55,000 public jobs in the next six months. While unemployment has long been a vital concern in rural Assam, past scandals in public recruitment have driven citizens to doubt authorities will fulfil that promise, while others wonder whether the measure isn't just a gimmick ahead of the state assembly's elections due on April 2021. The decision on the 55,000 jobs was announced on Twitter by the former General Secretary of the Assam Pradesh branch of the BJP, Mriganka Barman:
In a step towards empowering the youths of Assam the Hon'ble CM Shri @sarbanandsonwal had already generated 38,000 permanent and 35,000 temporary jobs in various departments, and is also planning to provide 55,000 jobs to the youths within the current financial year 2020-21. pic.twitter.com/gnjbzB4m5S — Mriganka Barman (@mrigankabjp) July 9, 2020
The BJP came to power in 2016 in Assam on promises of creating jobs after 15 years of Indian National Congress (INC) rule failed to make progress on that front on that state. Four years later, the BJP is facing shortcomings of its own, especially in regards to its commitment to expanding public service capacity. For example, in January, the government announced it would recruit over 15,000 teachers across the state over the course of six months. By the end of August, the government had only appointed 5,000. The worst disappointment with the BJP is probably related to recruitment to the Assam Public Service Commission (APSC). Jobs in this government body are considered very prestigious in Assam; hundreds of thousands of students prepare for its regular selection exams. However, recruitment for the ASPC has long suffered from a lack of transparency and allegations of corruption. Its former chairman, Rakesh Paul, was arrested in 2016 after a court found he received bribes from certain candidates in exchange for providing them with separate rooms during the examination. Paul was close to former Assam's Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi. Although no legal action was taken against Gogoi, the widely-publicized scandal tarnished the image of the INC in the state. In the 2016 elections, the BJP promised to clean up the ASPC from dishonest officers, but it wasn't long until it also faced accusations of corruption. For example, when recruiting new staff for the Panchyat and Rural Development in 2017, the BJP faced public criticism after answers were leaked on social media before exam day and candidates were caught using mobile phones in the exam hall. While Assam police opened an investigation into the irregularities, appointments were made anyway. Twitter user from Assam Tulesh Doley urged to the Prime Minister:
@PMOIndia What happen to your governments zero tolerance against corruption……plz do come and see what happened in Assam….#PNRD scam……. We need investigation…… — tulesh doley (@f7c232bfca81403) March 7, 2019
Local media also reported on the leaking of exam papers before a recruitment exam by Assam Power Distribution Company Limited took place in 2019. Police are investigating the incident. Also in 2019, the Assam government promised to appoint more 1,600 posts in the newly-established Foreigners Tribunals, courts where suspected foreigner citizens are summoned to prove their Indian citizenship. Exams were held and a list of qualified candidates was released, but the government hasn't appointed them yet. General Secretary of All Assam Students’ Union Assam Lurinjyoti Gogoi tweeted:
#Release_FT_Appointment The reluctance of the #AssamGovt to issue #AppointmentLetters to the selected Foreigner's Tribunal members once again proves their insincerity towards solving the illegal foreginers issue and their blatant disregard for Supreme Court directives. 1/2 — Lurinjyoti Gogoi (@lurinjtgogoi) August 24, 2020
The announcement of the 55,000 jobs was met on criticism online. The National Student's Association of India (Assam branch) tweeted:
◆ One Nation ◆ One Man ◆ Crores Unemployed Today's youngsters are awake about there jobs. Instead of wasting time on unnecessary things.Goverment should provide employment.#राष्ट्रीय_बेरोजगारी_दिवस#NationalUnemploymentDay pic.twitter.com/ZBvjNvitPh — Assam University NSUI (@AssamNsui) September 17, 2020
Gargee Kashyap from the city of Guwahati tweeted:
Unemployment at it's peak and what is more worring is that those exams that were held, Results still not declared like APDCL, APSC mains 2018 When will the concerned authorities will actually do something about it? #SpeakUpForJobs #ReleaseAPSCMain2018Results — Gargee Kashyap (@KashyapGargee) September 10, 2020
Twitter user Jan Kishore Gogoi from the city of Sivsagar said:
This is now become a trend, date after date in court is the new normal…Why does it take more than a year to release the Apsc Mains results, the whole process which needs to be completed in a year takes more than 3 years,This is not acceptable.#ReleaseAPSCMain2018results https://t.co/el4iK2QZkp — Jan Kishore Gogoi (@Jaandestiny) September 15, 2020
Twitter user Kishan Nath also joined in:

Someone who says has sat the exam to the Foreigner Tribunals’ said:
Please release our 1600 Foreigners Tribunal appointment letter. Our govt only give education & helth department appointment letter. But we feel we are not in the assam? We wait last 12 months.

Thoughtless ban on online education for students 1 to 5or 7:
Digitise early Or Perish!
IRONY - Until now mobile phones were banned from the schools! Now schools have been put into mobile phones!
Lost opportunity to enable rural and urban kids to learn digital education!
We all want the best for our children—in both school and life. Kids are losing their childhood to the coronavirus pandemic. There are few things more depressing than constantly reminding a young child that she must stay six feet away from a friend she meets.
Is online learning the future of education?
online education has made great strides in recent years. The maturity of education technology has also enabled online education to become more manageable and accessible than ever before. All a prospective student needs are a computer, an internet connection and some basic skills. The deep penetration of mobile phones has enabled those skills in the kids of today! Over the last 10 years, digital media has evolved rapidly. In 2011, 10% of children aged younger than 4 years used mobile devices, a number that grew to 38% in 2013. By 2015, 97% of low-income children used these devices, with 75% owning their own device.
Undoubtedly, with the wider spread of technology and deepening of the global mandate of education for all, online education’s potential to become complementary – or in some cases alternative – to traditional education cannot be overlooked.
Instead of worrying whether or not online education can ever be as good as more traditional formats, perhaps we should instead focus on how we can use it to deliver quality education for people all over the world, particularly the poor and the havenots.
India has been under lockdown since 24 March. The impact on children, in particular, will need to be carefully monitored. Some 1.3 - 1.5 billion students and youth across the planet are affected by school and university closures. The resulting disruptions exacerbate already existing disparities within the education system but also in other aspects of their lives.
The media is 24/7- Corona first, corona second and corona last! unfortunately Electronic media made a full-throated campaign for the ban on online education. In fact, children were getting a hang of it after few days of online exercise. They were excited.
Ban online education!
The govt appointed a committee to ban the online education. The experts promptly gave the report. The committee lost a golden opportunity of converting a crisis into an opportunity of initiating online education and give the children a head-start in digital education which is the future mode of education globally.
In its wisdom, Karnataka government on June 10 decided to ban online live classes for students from LKG till class 5 in all the primary schools in the state. Confusion and chaos have prevailed over the issue of extending a ban on online lessons for students up to class 7.
Parents seem to be unhappy as Karnataka bans online classes.
An online petition called, 'We support ONLINE CLASSES,' has collected around 15,000 signatures as of now!
The petition claims, "We, the parents are really happy with the online classes being held by almost all the schools across urban and rural Karnataka. The schools are putting great effort to continue giving education to our kids even during this heavy pandemic rise. And the screen time for kids, that is bothering the government should be looked upon in a positive way. At least the screen time the kids are going through are the productive ones, instead of them getting glued to televisions, i-Pads and video games.” They urged that schools be allowed to continue with their online classes.
Plan and not Ban!
Teach students where they are
Focus on creativity over curriculum
Select tools that support your objectives- is the way to go forward
There will always be initial hiccoughs. We don’t know when schools will reopen. We have to plan for an uncertain future. Digital technology that is going to change learning beyond physical schooling is inevitable. All You need is a regular access to a computer, a tablet or a smart phone to take online classes. If you do not have a computer at home, you can use the computer lab at your school or local library. You also need internet access.
Online classes can work well for lock down students. You can log into class when it is convenient and attend class without ever leaving your home. They require the same dedication as regular classes and a good deal of self-motivation. Some online classes require daily participation. Instead of spending time on gaming and TV viewing online classes can be highly productive!
The digital Natives and the digital immigrants or digital illiterates!
The digital Native has the digital wisdom! The terms "digital native" and "digital immigrant" were popularized by education consultant Marc Prensky in his 2001 article entitled Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants, in which he relates the contemporary decline in American education to educators' failure to understand the needs of modern students.
The arrival and rapid dissemination of digital technology has changed the way students think and process information, making it easy for them to excel academically using the digital language of the day. Prensky called these children "digital natives". Those who have no access to the digital language become Digital immigrants who are left behind pay a heavy price in the long run!
Bridge the gap
It is the duty of educators and the institutions to bridge the gap between the digital natives and digital immigrants who are at a disadvantage - they can sometimes be at variance and feel left out in their education.
It is a concern that all children do not have reliable access to digital devices. Some have raised health concerns of the children.
In the short term, we do not know when the corona will allow schools to reopen. In the long term, we do not know when the next disruption to the school system occurs. The data from around the world suggests that such events are more probable now than even 10 years ago. We cannot level down in the name of equality. We must level up. Perfection will not happen overnight. But the goal must be a progressive realisation of universal access. Let’s spread abundance, not scarcity.
The classroom with all its limitations, remains a location of great possibility. In the past few weeks, we have gone from Classroom to Zoom. From pedagogy to ‘panic driven tools’ to cope with hastily made transition. In the process, however, much has also changed. Perhaps never to return to whatever we knew of teaching and learning for generations.
Most students outside the metro-based middle class have limited computer access, Wi-Fi is kind of spotty and erratic, there is a lot of electricity outage and synchronous virtual classes are very stressful for students and teachers not used to working with technology.
Learning language is natural and kids are born with the ability to learn it. All children, no matter which language their parents speak, can learn more languages without any additional burden. As they grow, children continue to expand their knowledge and develop more complex languages including digital language! By age 6, a child's language begins to sound like adult speech. Digital language is no different!
It improves their self-esteem: Learning digital language allows children to master the language almost like digital natives! In addition, learning more than one language at early age improves lifelong ability to communicate with others and contributes to cognitive development and cultural awareness.
The sudden lockdown certainly caught the schools and colleges unawares, and what has compounded the problem is the fact that nobody is sure when life will get back to normal and students can once again return to their institutions.
This crisis can be a genuine opportunity. It is inevitable that we will need digital technologies to re-imaging learning beyond physical schooling. Instead of clamping down completely on online classes for young children, we should allow the flourishing... of experimentation and innovation!
Education across all levels will be imparted online and home-schooling will be the new norm. Children will go to schools only once a while, for group activities or for building social skills. Knowledge gets transferred via Zoom. There is stress on teachers as Transitions to distance learning platforms tend to be messy and frustrating, even in the best circumstances. Still move on!

"Our figures are being reconciled with the ICMR (Indian Council of Medical Research)," the ministry said on its website.
State-wise distribution is subject to further verification and reconciliation, it said.
MHA says 'learn to live with virus'
During a press briefing on the COVID-19 situation, Health Ministry Joint Secretary Lav Agarwal said, "As we talk of relaxations to the lockdown and of migrant workers returning back to their respective homes, there is a big challenge in front of us that we also have to learn to live with the virus."
"And when we are talking about learning to live with the virus then it is very important that the guidelines that are there on saving oneself from the virus are adopted in the community as a behavioural change," he added.
It is a big challenge and the government needs the community support for it, Agarwal added.
The ministry also reeled off various datasets, including those showing a rising number of infection-free districts and an increasing recovery rate, to suggest the success of the government's strategy in the COVID-19 fight, even as it sought "a behavioural change" and everyone's support in this massive challenge.
Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray, however, admitted there has been no success yet in breaking the virus chain, and said his government may seek deployment of central forces, if needed, to allow police personnel to take rest in phases. The state tops the nationwide tally for confirmed cases as well as deaths.
Ugly side of migrant crisis
Sixteen migrant workers sleeping on rail tracks while returning to Madhya Pradesh were crushed to death by a goods train in Aurangabad district of Maharashtra. The migrant workers, rendered jobless due to the coronavirus-enforced lockdown and desperate to go to their native places, were walking along the rail tracks apparently to escape police attention.
Those killed and the four other migrant workers who survived were all male, officials said. A viral video clip from the scene of the tragedy shows the bodies of migrant workers lying on the tracks and nearby with their meagre personal belongings scattered around.
Aurangabad SP Mokshada Patil told PTI that three of the four survivors had tried in vain to wake up their colleagues who had slept on the track after an overnight walk from Jalna, around 40 kilometres from the accident spot. The workers were walking to Bhusawal from Jalna along rail tracks, while returning to their home state Madhya Pradesh, an official at the Karmad police station said.
Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh governments announced financial aid of Rs 10 lakh to Rs 5 lakh each to the families of the deceased.
Separately in Karnataka, hundreds of migrant workers gathered on Mangaluru station in protest. They told the local police that they were stuck in the city without jobs, money and adequate food and that they were even willing to walk to their home states if the special trains were not operated immediately.
Meanwhile, a plea has been filed in the Supreme Court on Friday seeking a direction to the Centre to ask all district magistrates in the country to identify stranded migrant workers and provide shelter and food to them before ensuring their free transportation to native places in view of the Aurangabad tragedy.
Economic costs of lockdown causes worry
With the pandemic and the ongoing lockdown hitting the economy badly, Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh urged the prime minister to spell out the way forward for the country's economic revival and an exit strategy from the third phase of the lockdown.
A nationwide lockdown has been in place since 25 March, which was first imposed for 21 days but got extended first for another 14 days till 3 May and then for further 14 days in the third phase, with considerable relaxations, till 17 May.
The economic cost of the COVID-19 fight and the ongoing nationwide lockdown also appeared rising manifold with Moody's Investors Service projecting India's economic growth at zero percent for the current fiscal. It also said that a high government debt, weak social and physical infrastructure, and a fragile financial sector face further pressures due to the coronavirus outbreak.
According to experts, industrial and other business establishments may also face a huge labour shortage once they resume operations after the lockdown, which has been in place since 25 March and is scheduled to continue till 17 May. Lakhs of migrant workers have either left for their native places or are in the process of doing so, including by trains and buses arranged by state governments.
There are also worries that the virus spread may grow further in newer areas following these movements, while a large number of Indians stranded abroad have also begun returning home in special flights.
Since its outbreak in China last December, more than 38.6 lakh people have been found to be infected with this virus, while over 2.7 lakh people have lost their lives. Nearly 13 lakh people have recovered so far, including about 2 lakh in the US.
Separately, a panel of experts, formed to suggest ways to revive Maharashtra's economy, hit by the COVID-19 crisis and the resultant lockdown, submitted its report to the government during the day.
Several states have been taking steps to shore up their resources, including by levying higher taxes on fuel and liquor. After Delhi, Andhra Pradesh and several others, Himachal Pradesh government has now decided to impose a 'corona cess' on liquor sales, while Puducherry chief minister V Narayanasamy also said the territorial administration was mulling imposition of special COVID-19 tax on liquor to wriggle out of the current fiscal crisis.
The Madras High Court, however, ordered closure of liquor shops in Tamil Nadu a day after they were reopened, but allowed sale of liquor through online and door delivery till the end of the lockdown.
The Supreme Court too asked states to consider non-direct contact or online sales and home delivery of liquor during the lockdown period to prevent the spread of coronavirus on account of crowding at the shops.
Liquor shops were allowed to be opened in the third phase of the lockdown, which began on 4 May, subject to compliance to social distancing and other guidelines issued by the government.
