Child Labour

Child labour is a serious problem and a challenge for many countries. Several countries have enacted various laws and serious initiatives to eradicate child labour along with huge efforts made by various international organizations to eliminate child labour, but still the problem is very widespread throughout the world.

The reasons for child labour include poverty, lack of schools, lack of regulations and enforcement, corruption, lack of awareness , rapid population growth which are complex and deeply rooted into the society. Poverty seems to be the main cause. It has been observed over decades that, poverty forces poor families to send their children to work, which results in a serious problem the world is facing nowadays. Child labour can be found both in urban and rural areas. However the vast majority of child labour occurs in rural areas since poverty seems to be more prevalent. Children usually work to contribute to household income and provide financial support to their families. Their health is often ignored by their parents or they may not be aware about their children’s health. Although, many poor rural families struggle for a better life in urban areas, this pushes families to force their children to work in order to increase the family income and ensure survival.

Child labour can leave many severe consequences on children and their families. According to a recent study , it was found that the majority of child labourers are engaged in agricultural work sector. When children work, it does not mean as a standard, they support their families economically, neither all of them get paid for their work since many of them work as slaves or as bonded labour. In addition to that, they face many problems which may cause permanent damage to their childhood. A significant number of working children in India are engaged in hazardous work resulting in adverse health consequences. While many companies do not engage children in their main facilities , yet we find children engaging in other parts of their production which include smaller factories, workshops etc. Child labour includes children working in agriculture, either in family labour related activities or the farms of others , children working as servants in the home of others, children who work in factories, workshops, mines, quarries as domestic workers , children who live off the street by conducting jobs such as shoe shining, rag pickers and as street vendors, children engaged in commercial sexual exploitation , migrant children belonging mostly to rural families who leave for urban centers in search of other work.

Child labour is a major social problem and an international concern, which needs to be resolved on an urgent basis with the support of both the people and the government as it is highly involved in inhibiting the growth and development of the country. This issue cannot be eliminated without first attacking it at the roots. Thus, poverty, unemployment, lack of social security schemes, illiteracy and the attitude of society need to be tackled first before any progress can be made . If the society as such sees child labour as a social discomfort and a threat, we will be much closer at achieving success.

The Scientific Argument for Mastering One Thing at a Time

Many people, myself included, have multiple areas of life they would like to improve. For example, I would like to reach more people with my writing, to lift heavier weights at the gym, and to start practicing mindfulness more consistently. Those are just a few of the goals I find desirable and you probably have a long list yourself.

The problem is, even if we are committed to working hard on our goals, our natural tendency is to revert back to our old habits at some point. Making a permanent lifestyle change is really difficult.

Too Many Good Intentions

If you want to master multiple habits and stick to them for good, then you need to figure out how to be consistent. How can you do that?

This finding is well proven and has been repeated in hundreds studies across a broad range of areas. For example, implementation intentions have been found to increase the odds that people will start exercising, begin recycling, stick with studying, and even stop smoking.

However (and this is crucial to understand) follow-up research has discovered implementation intentions only work when you focus on one thing at a time. In fact, researchers found that people who tried to accomplish multiple goals were less committed and less likely to succeed than those who focused on a single goal.

What Happens When You Focus on One Thing

Here is another science-based reason to focus on one thing at a time:

When you begin practicing a new habit it requires a lot of conscious effort to remember to do it. After awhile, however, the pattern of behavior becomes easier. Eventually, your new habit becomes a normal routine and the process is more or less mindless and automatic.

Researchers have a fancy term for this process called “automaticity.” Automaticity is the ability to perform a behavior without thinking about each step, which allows the pattern to become automatic and habitual.

The most important thing to note is that there is some “tipping point” at which new habits become more or less automatic. The time it takes to build a habit depends on many factors including how difficult the habit is, what your environment is like, your genetics, and more.

Change Your Life Without Changing Your Entire Life

Alright, let’s review what I have suggested to you so far and figure out some practical takeaways.

You are 2x to 3x more likely to follow through with a habit if you make a specific plan for when, where, and how you are going to implement it. This is known as an implementation intention.
You should focus entirely on one thing. Research has found that implementation intentions do not work if you try to improve multiple habits at the same time.
Research has shown that any given habit becomes more automatic with more practice. On average, it takes at least two months for new habits to become automatic behaviors.

The counterintuitive insight from all of this research is that the best way to change your entire life is by not changing your entire life. Instead, it is best to focus on one specific habit, work on it until you master it, and make it an automatic part of your daily life. Then, repeat the process for the next habit.

The way to master more things in the long-run is to simply focus on one thing right now.

Acid Attack

Women are an important part of our society. Every woman has her own job or duty in
this modern society in which men are unfortunately still the ‘strongest gender’, we can’t
forget that a woman’s life is a lot more complicated than a man’s life. A woman has to
take care of her own personal life and if she is a mother, she has to take care also of her
children´s lives too. Worse still, if she is married, additional stress can be on her
shoulders. Yet they will still perform very well in the work environment in some cases
better than their male counterparts.

“Violence against women is a manifestation of
historically unequal power relations between men and women, which have led to
domination over and discrimination against women by men and to the prevention
of the full advancement of women.”

As per the provision of “Prevention of Offences (by Acids) Act 2008,(National Commission
for Woman – Draft Bill)” constitute the definition of Acid Attacks and Acid.
According to Section 3 of said Act –
“(a) “Acid” shall mean and includes any substance which has thecharacter of
acidic or corrosive or burning nature that is capable of causing bodily injuries
leading to scars or disfigurement or temporary or permanent disability.
(b) “Acid attack” means any act of throwing acid or using acid in any form on the
victim with the intention of or with knowledge that such person is likely to cause
to the other person Permanent or partial damage or deformity or disfiguration to
any part of the body of such person.”

Throwing acid leads to disfigurement of various body parts like face, vision loss, hand, chin, cheeks, death, etc. It comes under heinous crime. And its punishment is given under section 326A and 326B of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. This section was added by Criminal law(amendment act), 2013. Section 326A and 326B were added to Indian Penal Code by the case, Laxmi Agarwal vs. Union Of India. Because of this case, acid sale was regulated and compensation was given to the victim.

There is a movie based on the real story of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal i.e. Chhapaak. This movie was released on 10th january, 2020. Deepika Padukone played the role of acid attack survivor Laxmi Agarwal.

Journey of the Technologies that shaped today’s world: Electricity

The heat engines namely steam engine and Internal Combustion engine solved travel and transportation problems of mankind. From depending on manual human labour and animal power- which came with a number of limitations, to portable engines that could drive the wheels without being tiered for hours and for miles; the jump was significant. The society started progressing in leaps and bounds. Raw material could reach factories faster and finished products could reach markets faster. Agriculture produces could reach to consumers faster.

But human endeavour to understand nature and natural forces did not end here. Man continued to find laws that governed nature based on natural phenomenon. These laws inspired inventors to build machine that put these laws to use for making the human lives easier and far more enriching. One such discovery that changed the course of human civilization forever was ELECTRICITY.

Humans were introduced to electricity by electric eel and such aquatic creatures. However, this introduction was hardly productive. The next big milestone came when humans discovered Static Electricity. Rubbing of certain materials on certain other materials made the material charged and it could attract lighter objects like feathers. The first record of this phenomenon is available since as early as 600 BCE. But this phenomenon was not well understood and could not be put to use to any human use.

In 17^th and 18^th century, more experiments were done on static electricity. Benjamin Franklin is credited to discovery of electricity. He used a kite and key to experiment in 1752. His experiment showed that the lightening is the same as electricity. This was a crucial understanding to see electricity in action in natural phenomenon. After all, science uses naturally occurring events as a step stone to develop its understanding, to mimic the event and put it to human use.

However, all these discoveries and experiments of static electricity were giving power in a sudden burst which was not possible to contain or put to any use. (In fact, to this day we wish to harness the power of lightening. It could solve all our power problems.) So, it was a milestone achievement when Italian physicist Alessandro Volta discovered that certain chemical reactions could also generate electricity. If one could control the rate of the chemical reaction, one could ensure a steady supply of electricity.

This discovery was that chemical reactions could generate electricity was quite a chance discovery. Around 1800, an Italian doctor Luigi Galvani found that a frog’s leg twitched when it touched two different kinds of metals. Volta studied these findings and concluded that the different metals created a potential difference and thus the electric current flowed. So, Volta needed only to create a potential difference between two points which could be connected through a wire for electric current to flow. As simple as water flowing through pipe.

The Voltaic cell opened a door for chemical cells. Different metals and electrolytes have been tried by different scientists. A few that we use till date are Lead Acid cell, and Dry cells (as in pencil/AAA batteries).

Research methodology: Important topic for Net Exam

Define Research –

Research is quest for knowledge and a process to find something new done in systematic, organized process. It is used both in scientific and non-scientific field. In a practical way, it a systemized way of finding practical solution to new problems, events, phenomena and processes that arises every day and practically implementing solution and suggestion required to tackle that problem.

Classification of Research

Basic or Fundamental research – It is broadly classified into two main types of research. It also knows as theoretical research and study of some natural phenomenon. . Basic researches sometimes may not lead to immediate use or application. It is not concerned with solving any practical problems of immediate interest. It provides a systematic and deep insight into a problem and facilitates extraction of scientific and logical explanation and conclusion on it. It helps build new frontiers of knowledge. The outcomes of basic research form the basis for many applied research.

Key points of Basic Research is

Aims at basic processes
Attempts to explain why things happen
Tries to get all the facts
Reports in technical language of the topic
Seeks generalization

Applied Research
In an applied research one solves certain problems employing well known and accepted theories and principles. Most of the experimental research, case studies and inter-disciplinary research are essentially applied research. Applied research is helpful for basic research. A research, the outcome of which has immediate application is also termed as applied research. Such a research is of practical use to current activity.

Applied research

Studies individual or specific cases without the objective to generalize
Aims at any variable which makes the desired difference
Tries to say how things can be changed
Tries to correct the facts which are problematic
Reports in common language

Quantitative research

It is numerical, non-descriptive, applies statistics or mathematics and uses numbers.
It is an iterative process whereby evidence is evaluated.
The results are often presented in tables and graphs.
It is conclusive.
It investigates the what, where and when of decision making.

Qualitative research

It is non-numerical, descriptive, applies reasoning and uses words.
Its aim is to get the meaning, feeling and describe the situation.
Qualitative data cannot be graphed.
It is exploratory.
It investigates the why and how of decision making.

Mixed research-

Research is a research that involves the mixing of quantitative and qualitative methods or paradigm characteristics. Nature of data is mixture of variables, words and images.

Other types of research are

Exploratory research

Its primary goal is to understand or to explain relationships.
It uses correlations to study relationships between dimensions or characteristics off individuals, groups, situations, or events.

Explanatory research

Its primary goal is to understand or to explain relationships.
It uses correlations to study relationships between dimensions or characteristics off individuals, groups, situations, or events.

Longitudinal Research

Research carried out longitudinally involves data collection at multiple points in time.

Cross-sectional Research

It is Research is research in which data is gathered at once during a period of days, weeks or months.

Whom do you call a good leader?

Patient and steady with all he must bear

Ready to meet every challenge with care

Easy in manner, yet solid at steel,

String in his faith, refreshingly real,

Isn’t afraid to propose what is bold,

Doesn’t conform to the usual mould,

Eyes that have foresight, for hindsight won’t do

Never backs down when he sees what is true,

Tells it all straight and means it all too,

Going forward and knowing he’s right,

Even when doubted for why he would fight

Over and over he makes his case clear,

Reaching to touch the ones who won’t hear,

Growing in strength, he would not be unnerved,

Ever assuring he’ll stand by his word.

Wanting the world to join his firm stand,

Bracing for war, but praying for peace,

Using his power so eveil will cease :

So much a leader and worthy of trust,

What is it that makes some people excel in leadership roles? Leadership theories seek to explain how and why certain people become leaders. Such theories often focus on the characteristics of leaders, but some attempt to identify the behaviors that people can adopt to improve their own leadership abilities in different situations.

Early debates on the psychology of leadership often suggested that such skills were simply abilities that people were born with. In other words, these theories proposed that certain people were simply “born leaders.” Some more recent theories propose that possessing certain traits may help make people nature leaders, but that experience and situational variables also play a critical role.

A Closer Look at Leadership Theories
As interest in the psychology of leadership has increased over the last 100 years, a number of different leadership theories have been introduced to explain exactly how and why certain people become great leaders.

What exactly makes a great leader? Do certain personality traits make people better suited to leadership roles, or do characteristics of the situation make it more likely that certain people will take charge? When we look at the leaders around us—be it our employer or the President—we might find ourselves wondering exactly why these individuals excel in such positions.

People have long been interested in leadership throughout human history, but it has only been relatively recently that a number of formal leadership theories have emerged. Interest in leadership increased during the early part of the twentieth century.

Early leadership theories focused on what qualities distinguished between leaders and followers, while subsequent theories looked at other variables such as situational factors and skill levels. While many different leadership theories have emerged, most can be classified as one of eight major types.

“Great Man” Theories
Have you ever heard someone described as “born to lead?” According to this point of view, great leaders are simply born with the necessary internal characteristics such as charisma, confidence, intelligence, and social skills that make them natural-born leaders.

Great man theories assume that the capacity for leadership is inherent—that great leaders are born, not made. These theories often portray great leaders as heroic, mythic, and destined to rise to leadership when needed. The term “Great Man” was used because, at the time, leadership was thought of primarily as a male quality, especially in terms of military leadership.

Such theories suggest that people cannot really learn how to become strong leaders. It’s either something you are born with or born without. It is very much a nature (as opposed to nurture) approach to explaining leadership.

The Great Man Theory of Leadership
Trait Theories
Similar in some ways to Great Man theories, trait theories assume that people inherit certain qualities and traits that make them better suited to leadership. Trait theories often identify a particular personality or behavioral characteristics shared by leaders. For example, traits like extroversion, self-confidence, and courage are all traits that could potentially be linked to great leaders.

If particular traits are key features of leadership, then how do we explain people who possess those qualities but are not leaders? This question is one of the difficulties in using trait theories to explain leadership.

There are plenty of people who possess the personality traits associated with leadership, yet many of these people never seek out positions of leadership. There are also people who lack some of the key traits often associated with effective leadership yet still excel at leading groups.1

Trait Theories of Leadership
Contingency Theories
Contingency theories of leadership focus on particular variables related to the environment that might determine which particular style of leadership is best suited for the situation. According to this theory, no leadership style is best in all situations.

Leadership researchers White and Hodgson suggest that truly effective leadership is not just about the qualities of the leader, it is about striking the right balance between behaviors, needs, and context

Good leaders are able to assess the needs of their followers, take stock of the situation, and then adjust their behaviors accordingly. Success depends on a number of variables including the leadership style, qualities of the followers, and aspects of the situation.

Situational Theories
Situational theories propose that leaders choose the best course of action based upon situational variables. Different styles of leadership may be more appropriate for certain types of decision-making.

For example, in a situation where the leader is the most knowledgeable and experienced member of a group, an authoritarian style might be most appropriate. In other instances where group members are skilled experts, a democratic style would be more effective.

The Situational Theory of Leadership
Behavioral Theories
Behavioral theories of leadership are based upon the belief that great leaders are made, not born. Consider it the flip-side of the Great Man theories. Rooted in behaviorism, this leadership theory focuses on the actions of leaders, not on mental qualities or internal states. According to this theory, people can learn to become leaders through teaching and observation.

Participative Theories
Participative leadership theories suggest that the ideal leadership style is one that takes the input of others into account. These leaders encourage participation and contributions from group members and help group members feel more relevant and committed to the decision-making process. In participative theories, however, the leader retains the right to allow the input of others.

There are many different ways of thinking about leadership, ranging from focusing on the personality traits of great leadership to emphasizing aspects of the situation that help determine how people lead.

Like most things, leadership is a highly multi-faceted subject and it is a mixture of many factors that help determine why some people become great leaders. Learn more about some of the things that make people strong leaders is one way of potentially improving your own skills.

HOW TO REMAIN EVER ENERGETIC & MOTIVATED

Have you ever seen Yousely in mirror , and say “I am the greatest person ever born on this planet” . In 700 cr. I am the greatest , and a lot of dare is needed to say this that, I am the greatest. People don’t have dare to say this, that’s why they don’t become greatest . You are not seeing yourself as a greatest person daily. If you think any silly things, so become like this . But if you think any great thing so, you become a great person. So if you are going to thing a great thing so why should a normal great thing think the greatest think. If this concept made place in your mind. If you see yourself in mirror and say that I am the greatest person ever in this planet. In last 100 or 1000 decades or present time, I am the greatest person ever. But stay always clear with the definition of greatest Don’t get confused in definition. The person is not great by his name or fame person is great by his deed and extraordinary work, that is the greatest person. If a doctor who is great name and fame in their field is not great, the doctor is great by his unconditional services, his dedication towards his job . Doesn’t matter you job is what is your job , whatever your job is do it with honesty and satisfy the work with hardwork. Imagine you are a teacher so do it your teaching job as much as perfectly, that you are the best teacher in the planet. Do you work with whole passion, and give them 100% with a great dedication and focus. Then you are the greatest what’s doubt . Greatest are those , who gave their all efforts, do it with all knowledge and intelligence. I have guts to see myself in mirror and say that I m the greatest person ever in this planet. If I am writing any article on any of the topic, so I know whatever I write , I write with my all efforts I gave my 100% , I use my whole knowledge, and I write with honesty. So I know the article I write is greatest ever. Someone says yes, she is right and she writes very well her thoughts is clear. Someone says no , she is wrong. But what people is not my matter. That is others problem what they think about me. My outlook is important for me and this matter for me not others. Let’s take an example , someone is celebrity, just because a lot of people give this outlook but in personal he is taking a lot of depression pills, because he is not feel that he is the greatest person ever in this planet. Sometime people took them at the peak, and sometime took them at bottom this is what people do. This is their work and they are doing as always. So if you are celebrity because people say , people make you celebrity , and right know you are not because people let down your image , don’t go with the people, go with yourself. If you are celebrity in your outlook then you never flop at any situation at any time whatever the people think.

But accurate with the definition of greatest, you are greatest because your own outlook , you think, you gave this post , this positivity to yourself That you are greatest. Just think people or world is saying you are worst so what’s the matter that’s not my issue because I know I am the greatest and doing all my work with whole heartedly. So if you become greatest in your own outlook so your action, way of talking, and those people who are working or living with you they see you from a different view and you work like a magnet, a very wonderful energy radiating from those who become greatest in their own outlook, and everyone like this energy. Tell me one thing, that is anyone like dull , lazy or sappy person obviously not, all like energetic people who have extra energy and who charged up always and inspired internally. If you are doing any business so the people who are going to work with you and invest are attracted that much with my positive energy that they never leave my business or not even think about it. This is not a theoretical concept this is a practical concept.

Are you want to be like this . So how you become like this. It’s start with the way you look yourself . If you think positive so everyone around is looking positive to you. But you think negative so everyone around you is negative. Have you M.S Dhoni movie, see his positivity , his trust on himself and by facing a lot of problems at last he succeed because he know he is the greatest ever in this world. His positivity, his energy energies all the team members.

When you are excited to do your business so everyone who is working with you is excited to work with but you are not excited regarding your business so their is no chance of going good in your business.

In starting when you start to become greatest this is difficult for you , sometime it look lie also that are you really a greatest person in this planet. But when you are start practicing it daily and saying Yourself that you are greatest then it start reflecting in your behaviour and your surrounding can also observe this positivity and lastly when you shine and become a successful person. Everyone say that I know you will do something very great.

Social Media: Connects people world-wide

COVID-19 is upon us at its full force. While unlock 1.0 may be in effect It is still unsafe to step out at a time like this as the number of cases continue to rise everyday at an alarming rate. Places where people used to meet up like colleges, workplaces, school etc are closed and social distancing is recommended all over the world to protect ourselves and prevent the spread of coronavirus

With everything that has been happening, there are a lot of people who haven’t seen their friends or families in months. Catching up at a time like this is harder than we think as we used to take everything for granted. Thankfully, once again, technology has lend us a hand. Social media has made connecting to the ones who are physically far away from us possible and extremely easy. With a few taps on your smartphone and an internet connection, you can now connect to most of the people you know via social media. You can also connect with unknown people and meet new people.

Social media are apps or websites which focus on connecting one person to another and ways of keeping everyone updated with your life. The main social media apps used world-wide are Whatsapp, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat.

Whatsapp is basically a texting/ calling/ video-calling app where the user needs a phone number to make an account. He can then text, send a photo, send a video. etc to anyone in his/ her contact list. Whatsapp also allows posting of any photo or video or text via status. That is visible to all your contacts. These stories are temporary and get deleted in 24 hrs.

Instagram is a social media app which focuses on connecting via visual methods. You can post permanent videos, pictures etc which remain on your profile page for your followers to see. You can create your account via an email id or phone number, search up your friend”s usernames and follow them. It also allows direct messaging and video calling anyone who has an account as well and communicating via text or photos or videos. You can also post temporary 24 hr stories for anyone to see.

Twitter is a social media app or website which basically focuses on communicating and connecting via posting a small text or para which is called a tweet. Although you can tweet photos and videos too, this app focuses more on tweeting text for your followers to see. The account making procedure is similar to that of Instagram recently they have also added a fleets feature which is the same as stories on Instagram, Whatsapp, Snapchat and Facebook. You can also send direct messages via the app to other accounts.

Facebook is one of the first social media websites or apps which became massively popular. It allows postings of photos or videos which your friends can see. Your friends are added by searching their names up and sending them a friend request. The account making procedure is similar to that of twitter and Instagram. It also allows posting of 24 hrs temporary stories and direct messages to your friends. Facebook was the most popular social media some years ago. Now even though it is still widely used. It is not as popular as it was among youth as other applications like Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter are said to be better.

Snapchat is also a social media app which focuses on communicating safely. The text messages disappear after the other person sees them. Unless you keep saving every text. When someone takes a screenshot of the chat or of something you sent them or your story, Snapchat tells you. Snapchat was the first app which introduced the stories feature. Later, other apps copied the same idea.

Life like a song : A Mystery Envolved !!!!!!!!!!!!

What is Life? Can you all answer this question in a single term? I think Life can’t be explained in a single term or you can say that there is no single word that can express the real meaning of life. Life is full of Emotions, Up’s and Down’s, happiness and sorrows. Life is just an unspeakable. Firstly there is a huge mystery of the origin of life but there is one more big mystery i.e. itself life where we can’t say what will happen after a minute. The truth is that we can’t live our present because we always think for the future or of the past because when past was present we have not lived it because that time we was dreaming for the future i.e. present today and for sure we will not enjoy our future because that time we will think for the next upcoming day.

Just see a story that explains the real meaning of life because reality is this that till now we don’t know the actual meaning of life. So just read this story from down to your heart. There was a girl named Shania full of dreams in her mind, she was of 10 years but she has never seen a childhood. No, she was a normal girl like others but the conditions never allow her to enjoy her childhood. She was of 5 when she lost her parents in a car accident and now she was left with her granny who was not well so she started doing some work that she can find in her street. One day a rich man passed through the street and seeing the fresh apples in the bucket he told the driver to stop the car and ask the driver to buy some apples but the driver refuses by saying that sir doesn’t buy the fruits from this dirty girl. I’II takes you to the big fresh store and from there you can buy the fruits.

Next day when that rich man again passed from that street he sees that girl polishing the shoe. He stops their and ask her the reason behind her work as he have never seen a girl polishing a shoes before. A week passed everyday that man found the Shania in a different role. One day while returning from her office he sees Shania selling Bananas in front of the bus stop. He asked her that what she is doing in this dark midnight.

Shania told her that it is almost ten and a last bus is going to arrive and after selling these left banana she will return to her place .The man thinks that ‘who will buy these banana in this midnight’ and so he asked her to sit in her car as he will drop her and told her to sell the left banana next day. Shania refused by saying that “who knows that the tomorrow will come or not” and she takes her way.

A week passed that man has not found Shania and suddenly one day he found Shania asking for money in the streets he helped Shania and follows her to know that why she needs the money urgently. While following her he found Shania eating the food in the five star hotels and he got very angry by seeing that and asks for her money when Shania came out from a hotel. Shania told her that she will return it back soon and went her way.

Before going that man finds a letter in the ground in which there was a hospital’s address and when he reach there what he sees was unspeakable he sees a Shania sitting near the bed and there he knows the truth that the patient is Shania’s granny who has went through an operation 2 days before and now she is taking her last breath. He also learns the truth that Shania was there in that hotel just to return the money to the moneylender and he only offers her the left over ordered food which she was eating as she was hungry from 2 days and that day he realised the real meaning of hunger and life.

Really a life is like a Pizza, Which comes in a square box, is round from inside and becomes triangle when we eat it. We can’t say that what we see is real and what is real we can see it. Nothing is predictable so enjoy your present but defiantly make a big goal for your future because if you decide it you can worth it.

State Legislature Cannot Enact Law Providing Direct Appeal To Supreme Court

Without mincing any words, it has been held very categorically and convincingly by the Apex Court in HS Yadav vs Shakuntala Devi Parakh in Civil Appeal No(s). 5153 of 2019 most recently on October 15, 2019 that a State Legislature cannot enact a law providing an appeal directly to the Supreme Court of India. All the States are bound to comply with this latest, landmark and extremely laudable judgment. The Bench comprising of Justice Deepak Gupta and Justice Aniruddha Bose struck down Section 13(2) of Chhattisgarh Rent Control Act, 2011, in so far as it provides an appeal directly to the Supreme Court, holding explicitly that the same is totally illegal, ultra vires the Constitution and beyond the scope of the powers of the State Legislature.

To start with, the ball is set rolling in para 1 of this noteworthy judgment authored by Justice Deepak Gupta for himself and Justice Aniruddha Bose by first and foremost observing that, ““Whether the State Legislature can enact a law providing an appeal directly to the Supreme Court of India?” is the question arising in this appeal.” The entire judgment, therefore, revolves rightly around this moot question. Very rightly so!

To be sure, it is then envisaged in para 3 that, “Section 13 of the Act provides for an appeal against orders of the Rent Controller and the Tribunal. It reads thus:-

“13. Appeal.-(1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Act, a landlord and/or tenant aggrieved by any order of the Rent Controller shall have the right to appeal in the prescribed manner within the prescribed time to the Rent Control Tribunal.

(2) Appeal against an order of the Rent Control Tribunal shall be with the Supreme Court.”

Needless to say, it is then pointed out in para 4 that, “A bare perusal of Section 13 shows that from any order of the Rent Controller an appeal lies to the Rent Control Tribunal and in terms of Section 13(2), an appeal lies as a matter of right to the Supreme Court.”

What follows next is as mentioned in para 5 that, “When the present appeal, filed under Section 13(2) of the Act, came up for admission, while issuing notice we had also ordered as follows:-

“xxx xxx xxx

Notice be given to the learned Advocate General of the State of Chhattisgarh and the learned Attorney General for India as to whether the provisions contained in Section 13(2) of the Chhattisgarh Rent Control Act, 2011 providing for an appeal to the Supreme Court of India against the order of the Rent Control Tribunal, Chhattisgarh would be within the legislative competence of the State Legislature.

xxx xxx xxx””

Para 6 then further states that, “Pursuant to the notice, learned Attorney General has appeared and assisted the Court.”

As it turned out, it is then noted in para 7 that, “At the outset, we would like to point out that the Tribunal has been constituted in exercise of the powers vested in the State Legislature under Article 323B of the Constitution of India which deals with tribunal for other matters. Sub-clause (h) of Clause (2) of the said Article which empowers the appropriate legislature to constitute a tribunal to deal with the issues relating to rent and its regulations read as follows:-

“323B. Tribunals for other matters:-

(1) xxx xxx xxx

(2) The matters referred to in clause (1) are the following, namely:-

xxx xxx xxx

(h) rent, its regulation and control and tenancy issues including the rights, title and interest of landlords and tenants:”

Of course, it is then clarified in para 8 that, “It is not in dispute before us that the State has the power to constitute the Tribunal. The only issue is whether in terms of Section 13(2) of the Act, the State Legislature could provide an appeal as a matter of right from the order of the Tribunal to the Supreme Court.”

What’s more, it is then laid down in para 9 that, “Article 246 of the Constitution specifically provides that Parliament has exclusive powers to make laws in respect of matters enumerated in List I (Union List) of the Seventh Schedule. As far as the Concurrent List, i.e. List III is concerned, both the Union and the State have the power to enact laws but if the field is occupied by any law enacted by Parliament then the State cannot legislate on the same issue.”

Simply put, it is then made clear in para 10 that, “Entry 77 of List I of the Seventh Schedule reads as under:-

“77. Constitution, organisation, jurisdiction and powers of the Supreme Court (including contempt of such Court), and the fees taken therein; persons entitled to practice before the Supreme Court.”

Entry 77 gives power to the Union in respect of jurisdiction and the powers of the Supreme Court. This power cannot be exercised by the State Legislature.”

While continuing in the same vein, it is then enunciated in para 11 that, “It would also be apposite to refer to Entry 65 of List II of the Seventh Schedule, which reads as follows:-

“65. Jurisdiction and powers of all courts, except the Supreme Court, with respect to any of the matters in this List.”

A bare reading of Entry 65 clearly indicates that the State Legislature has no power to enact any legislation relating to jurisdiction and power of the Supreme Court. This power is specifically excluded.”

Be it noted, para 12 then lays bare that, “Entry 46 of List III of the Seventh Schedule is also relevant. This reads as follows:-

“46. Jurisdiction and powers of all courts, except the Supreme Court, with respect to any of the matters in this list.”

Even Entry 46 makes it clear that as far as the jurisdictional powers of the Supreme Court are concerned, they cannot be exercised under the Concurrent List. Therefore, the powers with regard to jurisdiction and power of the Supreme Court vest with the Union and Parliament alone can enact a legislation in this regard. The power of the Supreme Court under Article 136 is always there. However, the State cannot enact a legislation providing an appeal directly to the Supreme Court. That would amount to entrenching upon the jurisdiction of the Union, which the State Legislature does not have.”

More importantly, it is then observed unambiguously in para 13 that, “We are constrained to observe that the men who drafted the Act did not even consider the hierarchy of Courts. As pointed above, the Rent Control Tribunal is headed by a retired Judge of the High Court or District Judge in the Super Time Scale or above. What was the rationale of making such an order appealable directly to the Supreme Court? We see no reason why the supervisory jurisdiction of the High Court should be excluded.”

Equally important is what is spelt out in para 14 that, “We, therefore, have no doubt in our mind that Section 13(2) of the Act, in so far as it provides an appeal directly to the Supreme Court, is totally illegal, ultra vires the Constitution and beyond the scope of the powers of the State Legislature. Section 13(2) of the Act is accordingly struck down.”

A key point is then made in para 15 that, “While dealing with the issue, we may make reference to the fact that the Rent Control Tribunal is a tribunal constituted under Article 323B of the Constitution.”

While referring to a landmark case of the past, it is then revealed in para 16 that, “In L. Chandrakumar vs. Union of India (1993) 4 SCC 119, this Court clearly held that tribunals constituted under Articles 323A and 323B of the Constitution are subject to the writ jurisdiction of the High Courts. In view of the law laid down in L Chandrakumar’s case (supra), the High Court can exercise its supervisory jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution against the orders of the Rent Control Tribunal.”

Finally and no less importantly, it is then held in the last para 17 that, “In view of the above, we hold that an appeal under Section 13(2) of the Act directly to the Supreme Court is not maintainable. We, therefore, dismiss this appeal. However, we keep it open to the appellant to approach the High Court for redressal of his grievance under Article 227 of the Constitution. If the appellant does so, the High Court shall decide the matter strictly in accordance with law. Pending application(s) if any, stand(s) disposed of.”

No doubt, on a concluding note, it has to be said that it is a very well written and well reasoned judgment which deserves unqualified appreciation. All the State Legislatures must always keep in mind in similar such cases what the Apex Court has so very rightly laid down in this case also so elegantly, eloquently and effectively! As a corollary, no denying that it must always be ensured by all the State Legislatures that no law should be enacted which provides direct appeal to the Supreme Court in such cases as has been very held in this case!

Teen slangs of 2020

Latest Teen Slang

Here are 20 of the latest teen slang words and phrases that are showing up in 2020, and what they mean.

Extra

This is another way of saying that someone or something is too much or over the top. An example might be: “She is so extra. She talks about Karen non-stop.” Extra can also be used in a self-deprecating way.

Snatched

You don’t have to worry if you hear your teen saying that someone or something is snatched. It’s actually a compliment, and it could sound something like: “I love those sneakers! They are so snatched.”

Big yikes

To use a slang word that we’ve already learned, big yikes is like yikes only extra. Think about how you might use “Yikes!” or “No way!” and then double it as in: “Big yikes! Did you see what Jared just posted on his finsta??”

Finsta

You monitor your teen’s social media and are probably even connected with them on Instagram, so you feel like you’re aware of their digital footprint, right? Unfortunately, they may have a “finsta” too, which is a secret second Instagram account. This account is hidden from parents and may tell a different story than your child’s official Instagram account.

Flex

Flex is the new way to say “show off.” An easy way to remember this one is to picture someone flexing their muscles. Your teen might say: “She is trying to flex all over finsta today since she received another college acceptance letter.”

No cap

This is probably equivalent to our “for real” or no “no lie” from our younger days. Teens are emphasizing that they are telling the truth with this one.

Lowkey

This is a way to describe something you want to keep on the downlow, to use one of our old slang words, or something that you don’t want to emphasize too much. For instance: “I lowkey can’t wait for this school year to be over… not that I’m mentioning this to my parents.”

Highkey

Conversely, highkey is a way to describe something that you really want to emphasize. For example, “I highkey can’t wait for this day to end! I want to scream it from the rooftops.”

I’m dead

This is one you may have noticed in many of BuzzFeed’s “article” headlines. “I’m dead” refers to the fact that your teen is laughing so hard about something that she is dying of laughter.

Slay

Slay is a way to say someone looks amazing or did an excellent job at something. One friend might tell another: “Girl, you slayed in that game! I can’t believe how many points you scored.”

Straight fire

Straight fire is otherwise known as “on the up and up” or better than all of the rest. It can also mean hot. Not as in temperature, but as in “That’s hot!” expressed in a positive way.

Spill the tea

If you hear your teen asking a friend to “spill the tea,” it means that they want to hear the latest gossip or story. Your teen might say, “Spill the tea! I want to hear what happened after you left the party.”

CD9

Breaker, breaker. This one may take you back to the walkie-talkie days of your youth. CD9 stands for Code 9 as in, “Can’t talk! My parents are here!”

Shook

Shook is a way to describe that you are emotionally shaken or affected by something. You might hear your teen say, “I stayed up all night reading that book, and now I am shook.”

Netflix and Chill

This one sounds nice, right? Maybe you’re at work right now thinking of how nice it would be to get comfy on the couch and watch Netflix tonight with a pint of ice cream. When your teen says it, unfortunately, it means that she is using that as a front to have someone over (or go over there house) to make out and possibly

How’z That?: Playing Popular Games in Empty Stadiums

Cricket and football are two of the most passionate and fascinating sports in the world. We all love those beautiful games and the players connected with them. The ardent supporters would try their best to shirk work to attend matches and the crazier ones would not hesitate to sacrifice their sleep to express support to their teams. The emergence of COVID-19 had changed the whole scenario. There were no matches worth mentioning in any place in the world for more than three months. After a long pause things are limping back to some degree of normalcy.

Football is coming back to Spain with virtual crowds, regular matches and lots of testing being done for protection from coronavirus. The Spanish League was suspended for more than three months due to the pandemic. It will resume this weekend as the second top league to do so in Europe. The Bundesliga is the first league ever to start in the post-pandemic times. The other leagues, such as the Premier League and the Italian League, will start from next week. The league officials estimated the loss of $1.1 million if they do not resume the matches for the pandemic. The Spanish League is starting the match from Friday between Sevilla and Real Betis at 1.30 am IST as the El Garn Derby. The weekend will have a kickstart match by the table leader FC Barcelona versus RCD Mallorca. There will be another match played between the second placed Real Madrid and Eibar on Sunday next. The Sunday match will take place at Real Madrid’s training centre as the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is under renovation throughout the season. The clubs are expected to have matches on a regular basis till its completion on 19 July, 2020. Supporters from all over the world are anticipating how the ‘new normal’ will affect the players on field.

La Liga is having high hopes to push the restart button as a celebration and it is also planning to pay respect to the victims of coronavirus. Spain has experienced more than 27,000 deaths and is one of the worst-hit countries in the world. The first match on Friday will show the world that the crisis is under control. The federation has decided to put down some rules which should be followed strictly. These will help to keep an eye on coronavirus and restrict it from spreading among the players and the staff.

The new norms are as follows:

Corona test will be performed twenty four hours before the match at home for each player.
Players must wear masks and gloves and have temperature checked before entering the stadium.
Possibility to have a squad of twenty three players.
Players and staff have to change their kits during the half-time break.
Yellow card is to be shown if a player spits on the ground.
Post-game press conference should be done through video conference call.
Five substitutions instead of three in the eleven member-team.
Handshakes are totally prohibited.
Teams travelling by bus will use two buses.
The security personnel have to check on fans to ensure no large gathering in front of the stadium.
There will be no supporters in the stadium.
The players should sit on the alternate seats in the bench.

The VIVO Indian Premier League is one of the most popular and prestigious cricket tournaments in India. This year it was scheduled to start from 29 March to 24 May but it was postponed due to the outbreak of coronavirus. Sourav Ganguly, the President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), announced that the board is exploring all possible actions to restart the league. The matches will happen in empty stadium without any supporters. The board is discussing safety precautions for the players and staff where some of them have to take international flights to be with the teams. It is being speculated that the tournament might be played in the October-November slot if the International Cricket Council (ICC) decides to postpone the T20 World Cup. The board is in the process of developing a COVID-19 SOP (Standard Operation Procedure) for all State Cricket Associations with a few standard guidelines. It is also in the process of discussing domestic cricket tournaments with the state cricket associations. The economic structure of international cricket is likely to change and lower-ranked nations are already facing fund crunch.

The Indian Super League (ISL) final was held in an empty stadium in Goa on 14 March. I-League season was stopped on 15 March, with the Neroca vs Chennai City 2-2 draw becoming the last match of the season. The season was eventually called off with twenty three matches left and Mohun Bagan was crowned champions. India’s remaining World Cup qualifiers have been postponed. Matches against Qatar, Afghanistan and Bangladesh were scheduled for the March-April window and there’s little clarity on when they will be played. The postponement of the U-17 Women’s Football World Cup, 2020, which was to be hosted in India in November, has also caused some concern. Though FIFA has mentioned that new dates will be identified at a more suitable time.

It is obvious that fans and supporters of all kinds of games around the world have to wait patiently for the matches to start again. There is a huge impact on the world sports arena due to the coronavirus. The feel and shrill of collective expressions reverberating the stadiums are being missed by all.

Are we using social media in a right way?

In today’s world almost half of the world’s population use social media apps such as Facebook, instagram, whatsapp, twitter. But how many people trust social media? And should we really trust social media fully?

However social media app developers provides us full security, they say our messages are encrypted completely, our data is secured and private. But beware of hackers, keep changing your passwords time to time, developers also advices us to do so.

But what about the data shared on social media, the young generations donot belive on false news provided on social media but our elder generation which includes our parents too, very easily belives on such false news and even forward them to others, informing them about the wrong news. So, it’s our duty to stop our elders from doing such things and aware them with the dark side of social media.

Social media is however a very good platform for expanding business by advertising our product and opening shop on social media, many people are even doing this, people earns money even by making memes and publishing them on social media.

It also helps us in studying field, we can get in direct touch with our teachers, friends, and can get informed about the new seminars, webinars which are going to take place in which we can take part to enhance our skills, to learn something new.

But now a days, people use social media to pass time on, rather than utilising it to do something good, they spends hours on chatting with strangers, scrolling it which is bunkum.

A person has thousands of friends on social media but reality is different sometimes. They don’t even have one true friend then what is the means of such friends, social media distanced people from real world.

Every thing has it’s pros and cons, it all depends on how we use that thing, so choose yourself, will social media provide you food, shelter? No, they don’t, then work for the things which will provide you these. Social media doesn’t provide everything we need, if we want to travel somewhere, then can you satisfy yourself just by seeing the pictures of those places on social media? No, we can’t because that live enjoyment of that place can’t be provided by social media, Similarly there are many other real life enjoyments which social media can’t provide.

Staying connected with our known ones, relatives through social media is good, but meeting them personally, enjoying with them gives more pleasure which can’t be defined, and as it’s our life so choice is also ours what we want to do.
