Measurement and monitoring of water supply to be done under Jal Jeevan Mission

India is one of the most vibrant IoT eco-systems in the world, with various supporting enablers making it conducive for companies looking to serve global demand beyond national boundaries. Government of India has introduced different policies and initiativesto leverage the benefits of these disruptive IoTtechnologies in multiple sectors. To harness the initiatives like Atmanirbhar Bharat, Digital India and Make in India, the Jal Jeevan Mission will be creating a smart rural water supply eco-system to measure and monitor the service delivery of the water suplly in rural areas.

Union Government’s flagship programme, Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) being implmeneted in partnership with States aims at providing Functional Household Tap Connection (FHTC) to every rural household of the country by 2024. The programme focuses on service delivery at the household level, i.e.  supply of 55 lpcd of water of prescribed quality on a regular and long-term basis. The mission focuses on ‘service delivery’, rather only on infrastructure creation.

In accordance to 73rd Amendment to the Constitution, Gram Panchayats at village level are to manage drinking water supply. Thus, Gram Panchayat or its sub-committee, i.e. Village Water & Sanitation Committee/ PaaniSamiti are required to function as a ‘local public utility’ for drining water management, water service delivery, greywater treatment& reuse, and take care of operation and maintenance of in-village water supply infrastructure for assured drinking water supply on regular basis, collect user charges for delivery of water supply services. To facilitate States and Gram Panchayats or its sub-committee, i.e. PaaniSamiti, an automated system for measurement and monitoring of water service delivery is necessary. This necessitates the use of modern technology formeasurement and monitoring of the water service delivery and to capture and transmit service delivery data automatically for ensuring the quality of service.

It’s the endeavour of the Union Government to expand optic fibre network uptoall villages. Accordingly, Hon’ble Prime Minister announced that in next 1,000 days, all villages will be connected by fibre optic network. In almost whole country, telecom connectivity has reached. IoT strategies are increasingly used to monitor the water quantity and quality.Recent technological advancements (such as IoT, Big Data Analytics, AI/ML, Cloud) and declining costs of mobile data, hardware (sensors), and software provide an opportunity to digitise water supply infrastructure in rural India. Digitally enabled water supply infrastructure will help in near real-time monitoring and evidence-based policymaking. Digitisation of water supply infrastructure has the potential to help the Gram Panchayats as ‘local public utility’. More importantly, it will help anticipate and address future challenges.

National Jal Jeevan Mission has constituted aTechnical Expert Committee to prepare a road map for measurement and monitoring of water service delivery system in rural areas.The committee has eminent members from academia, administration, technology and specialistsfrom water supply sector.

National Jal Jeevan Mission andMinistry of Electronics &Information Technology planning to conduct an ICT Grand Challenge. The purpose of the ICT grand challenge is to bring an innovative, modular, and cost-effective solution to develop a ‘Smart Water Supply Measurement and Monitoring System’ to be deployed at the village level. The ICT grand challenge will be inviting proposal from Indian Tech start-ups, MSMEs, Indian Companies, Indian LLPs.

The mission in partnership with State Governments and sector partners has started facilitating sensor-based water supply system on pilot basis in various villages. Gujarat has begun navigating the sensor-based rural water supply systems in 1,000 villages spread across five districts. Other States have also started pilot projects. The data collected fromthe field locations will be transmitted to the State and Central server and can be used to monitor the functionality ( quantity, quality and regularity of water supply) at theState and Central level. This will ensure to minimise service delivery outage and water loss and monitor the quantity and quality on a long-term basis. The additional advantage of this data would be to analyse the demand pattern of the user groups over time and use this information for demand management at the aggregate level, minimise non-revenue water, ensure proper management and effective operation and maintenance of water supply systems in the villages.

The next time you think of raising a pet dog, consider bringing home an Indian breed, says PM in Mann ki Baat

In the latest address of Mann ki Baat, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi talked about Sophie and Vida, the dogs of the Indian Army who have been awarded the Chief of Army Staff ‘Commendation Cards’. He said that armed forces and security forces have many such brave dogs who have played a very important role in thwarting numerous bomb blasts and terrorist conspiracies. He gave several other examples helping sniff out ammunition and IED, and also mentioned the Beed Police who recently gave their canine colleague Rocky, who had helped the police in solving over 300 cases, a final farewell with all due respect.

Discussing the Indian breed of dogs, Prime Minister said they cost less to raise and are better adapted to the Indian environment and surroundings and said that our security agencies are also inducting these Indian breed dogs as part of their security squad. Research on the Indian breed dogs is also being done by the Indian Council of Agriculture Research with the aim to make them better and more beneficial, he noted. He exhorted the listeners, who are planning to raise a pet dog, to adopt one of Indian breed.

PM highlights importance of Poshan Maah in converting nutrition awareness into a mass movement

In the latest address of Mann ki Baat, the Prime Minister noted that the month of September will be observed as Poshan Maah – Nutrition month. He said that nation and nutrition are very closely interrelated. He recalled the maxim – “Yatha Annam Tatha Mannam,” which means that mental and intellectual development is directly related to the quality of our food intake. He said that nutrition and proper nourishment play a big role in helping children and students to attain their optimum potential and to show their mettle.He stressed that for children to be well nourished, the mother needs to receive proper nourishment. He added that nutrition merely does not only imply eating but getting essential nutrients like salts, vitamins etc.

Prime Minister noted the efforts made in the country during the past few years especially in villages where public participation in nutrition week and nutrition month is converting nutrition awareness into a mass movement. He added that schools have been integrated into this mass movement with efforts being made to ensure competitions for children to increase nutrition awareness.

Prime Minister said that in a class, just like there is a Class Monitor, there should be a Nutrition Monitor. Similarly, just like a Report card, a Nutrition Card should also be introduced. He informed that during the course of the Nutrition Month, a food and nutrition quiz as well as meme competition will be organized on the My Gov portal. He asked the listeners to participate in it.

Prime Minister informed that at the Statue of Unity, a unique kind of nutrition park has also been created where one can witness nutrition related education along with fun and frolic.

Emphasising that India is endowed with a lot of diversity in food and drink, Prime Minister said it is very important that according to the season of a particular region, a well-balanced & nutrient rich, diet plan should be drafted to include  local food grains, fruits and the vegetables cultivated there. He informed that an ‘Agricultural Fund of India’ is being created that will have complete information about the crops that are grown in each district and their related nutritional value. Prime Minister asked the listeners to eat nutritious food and stay healthy during the nutrition month.

Music and it’s Psychological Effects

According to Oxford dictionary, music means the instrumental or vocal sounds or both combined in such a way to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression.

Music is an art, entertainment, pleasure, meditation and a medicine for the soul and the body. All the cultures and the people have universal responses to it.

Human psychology is the study of the human personality and the way that we derive our motivations and our reactions and our daily state of emotions.

Several studies have indicated that different types of music can enhance concentration power, cognition, moods, reduction of stress and anxiety, healing from a traumatic incidence etc. However, all of these depends on the type of music.

There are different types of music like jazz, rock, pop, classical and many more. All of these impacts differently on human mind. For instance, classical music has been found to enhance concentration and problem solving skills which are helpful in studies. Happy music is helps to get good mood. While in contrast, sad music is found to make gloomy. However, the effect depends on duration of exposure to music. The reason behind is listening to music releases several chemicals in brain and make it think & work accordingly.

Not only humans, even plants also responds to music. But the mechanism is not the same here as in the case of humans. Actually, music is made from a combination of different sounds. Sound is made up of vibration which propagates in a medium in the form of a wave. Plants respond to these vibrations which act as a mechanical stimulus and causes various physiological changes.

Believe it or not, numerous studies have indicated that playing soft music for plants really does promote faster and healthier growth.

Are Online Classes Being Able To Replace Traditional Classrooms?

With the rise of the pandemic and the extended lockdown, educational institutions have been prompted to shift towards online teaching. While initially digital classrooms seem to be a great alternative, whether it can successfully replace traditional classroom teaching is a question yet to be answered. Online teaching has also posed a threat to students belonging to the economically backward sections of the society. In a country like India, a great percentage of students do not have the access to such means or find it difficult to avail those options.

According to survey findings there is a noticeable change in behavior and habits following the forced lockdown among the school goers. The sleep cycle and sleeping pattern of nearly 50 per cent children have been disturbed. It also indicates that 13 per cent of children have no regular pattern of sleeping. As a result, 67 per cent of parents think that their child’s screen time has gone up by at least 50 per cent during the lockdown. Increased screen time is known to severely affect concentration levels and leading to insomnia and other sleep disorders. The fear of pandemic has affected children in the worst way, nearly 40 per cent of the children who were surveyed, have been known to have mental health and unaddressed anxiety issues.

Schools and Colleges have set timetable in such a way so that there are breaks in between classes but because of network connectivity issues, students have started logging in earlier, which have lessened the break times. A teacher said in an interview, “In the first month, things were fine but with time students are losing interest and a kind of boredom is setting in even for the bright kids. For students in senior classes or those who will appear for board exams there is pressure from teachers and parents which is taxing.” After attending classes online, many students are also sitting for online tuition or extracurricular activity classes.

Teachers of many schools have reported that students have become “more subdued” in class and their energy levels have decreased than before. According to psychiatrists and teachers, months of being inside and attending classes from within the screen has made students “fatigued” and “demotivated.” Even students who are academically strong have not been responding in class like before, teachers said. They have observed that the “naughty and mischievous” ones who would always be up to some mischief in classrooms have become “quiet and subdued” during online classes.

Psychiatrist Jai Ranjan Ram said to a newspaper, “Teachers are trying but online classes are not the same as what school was for children. No wonder they are feeling demotivated and fatigued. They have to attend continuous classes on the screen, at times not on laptops but on phones. All this while there is monotony of the same environment. It’s difficult to maintain a sense of well-being. In an online class the nuances of non-verbal communication are completely lost.”

Sneha Priya S, Co-Founder & CEO of SP Robotic Works, has said, “Covid has proven to be the turnstile for education in India. The current situation has unearthed the immense potential of platforms with experiential and interactive learning which engage children in practical tasks and logical reasoning.”

In a physical classroom, students and teachers would even discuss things not related to academics and eagerly share their experiences. While there are downsides, there are also some positive aspects to it. Educational institutions have been closed for months at a stretch. With online classes there is the possibility to catch up with studies. Many students feel that at least in an online mode there is some form of interaction which helps them in these trying times. Online classes have made possible for students and teachers to get back to their routines within safe conditions. They also provide students with something to look forward to everyday. But amidst the current social conditions, students long to go back to their campuses. As we adjust to the ‘new normal’ many young people who are at the beginning of their career are also uncertain of what challenges they might face in the future.

Sale of Flowers Dip due to COVID-19 in Kerala

Waiting…

During Onam times flowers sell like hot cakes every year. But this year the market is seeing cold winds due to COVID-19. The flowers sellers said that COVID has dampened their most profitable season’s sale.

Flowers are used in decorations, making floral carpets and other purposes during Onam and every flower seller usually bags around Rs. 12000-15000 daily. But this year has turned into an adverse one as they are able to make sales of Rs 300 a day only which is a drastic effect of pandemic on these sellers.

Reminiscing last year, a flower vendor said that every year they were not able to manage the customers because of high rush but this year there are vacant roads and markets. Everyone is scared to come out of their homes in the wake of a virus.

Recently Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan announced barring all the flowers not being allowed to cross border which has also affected flower market as earlier vendors used to buy flowers from Coimbatore as there, they would get it in feasible price but this year the price for buying flowers for the vendors is also high.

The festival started on August 22 and will carry on till September 2 and is celebrated in the month of Chingam which is believed to be the first month according to the Malayalam calendar. The celebration is carried on for 10 days to start off the new year with a ceremonious feel and tenth day is the conclusion day which is named as Thiruvonam.

Bengaluru, The next Delhi!?

How toxic is Bengaluru air? It was ranked 63rd among 168 cities for PM 2.5 levels, titled “Airpocalypse”- on air quality. Tumukuru was ranked 67th. Bengaluru is in the grip of rising air pollution. Official ambient air quality monitoring has already shown 57% increae in particulate matter. With growing vehicle numbers and resultant congestion and dieselization, air pollution is a growing concern in the city. The city is losing its inherent advantage of dominant commuting practices – use of bus and walking at the cost of clean air and public health.

Bangalore needs stringent measures including leaffrogging emissions standards to Euro VI, curbing dieselization, scaling up of integrated public transport, car restraints and walking for clean air.

Centre for science and environment (CSE) released to results from its recent analysis of the official ambient air quality monitoring in Bengaluru as well as its own exposure very high level of pollution within the breathing zone of people. This indicates serious public health risk. Elder people and children below 10 years of age whose lung system are weak are succumbing to allergies or bronchitis due to air pollution. Fine dust that settles on the windows and tables at home is contributing to the increase in lung-related diseases. Particles less than 10 micrometer in diameter (PM 10) pose a health hazard because they can be inhaled and accumulate in the respiratory system.

According to the statistic obtained from the Karnataka State Pollution control Board (KSPCB), PM10 and PM 2.5 have exceeded national standards in almost all locations where ambient air quality stations are located. The KSPCB is monitoring ambient air quality in Bengaluru city at 16 locations as per the guidelines if Central Pollution Control Board covering industrial, residential, rural and other areas under National Ambient Air Quality Programme.

As per the data obtained for the year 2016-2017, out of 16 locations, 15 locations have exceeded the national limits of PM10, PM10 content in the city is 98.9 ug/m as against the national standard of 60 ug/m. Central Silk Board of Hours Road and Whitefield industrial area have the highest PM content with almost double the limit. Particulate matter invades human lungs at night and early in the morning. As a result, people with asthma and bronchits get affected during these times.

Apart from the pollution caused by the industries, the rising levels of vehicular pollution I’d also a cause of concern in Bengalore. Currently, 26 lakh vehicles ply on the narrow roads of Bangalore. 21 lakh are two and three wheelers.

There is no denying the fact that Bangalore had made its mark in the world map, thanks to the software boom, however this had come at a high price.

Respite for people of Delhi and Noida

There is good news for the people living around Delhi’s Kondli and its neighbouring places. They will now get respite from the the foul smell that comes from the Sewage Treatment Plant. For this the Delhi Jal Board in a report submitted to National green tribunal has stated that it has has decided to set up a Stink Control Unit. This unit will bring respite from the foul smell to the people residing in the areas of New Ashok Nagar, Vasundhara, Dallupura, Chilla Gaon, Mayur Vihar phase 3, Noida Sectors 2, 8 and 10, among other places. The Delhi Jal Board has stated in front of a bench led by NGT chief Justice A. K. Goyal that the work will be completed within 5 months after the tender is given for the unit. It also stated that two tiered biological odour control will be added to the current STP plant which will have online surveillance. NGT has asked the Delhi Jal Board to start work on it as soon as it can.

The Mughal Empire

The Mughal Empire administrated India and Pakistan In 16th and 17th centuries. They were Muslims who used to rule a country with Hinduism as majority tho they had given many rights to Hindus as well. Before their invasion India was divided into many small kingdoms of Hindus and Muslims and significantly the rich Jain businessmen were conscientious regarding the devotional arts and many beautiful manuscripts. Mughals fortified Islamic especially Persian Culture arts and beliefs in India.

The great grandson of Tamerlan and Genghis Khan was the first Mughal emperor in India. In 1526, he challenged and defeated Lodhi at the first Battle of Panipat, and then he came to establish the Mughal Empire in India. Babar ruled until 1530, replacing his son Humayun. The Mughal Dynasty developed out of the remnants of the Mongolian Emperor who lived in Turkestan in the 15th century. They have become Muslims and have assimilated the ideology of the Middle East, while retaining aspects of their Far Eastern origins.

They also maintained the great military ability and abilities of their Mongolian predecessors, and were among the first Western military figures to use weapons.

Mughals brought many significant changes in India and its administrative system such as:

  • They introduced centralized government that brought together many kingdoms under one flag.
  • Their one of the most germane contribution was Persian art and culture.
  • They gifted India a unique style of architecture(examples are Taj Mahal).
  • A system of education that took account of pupils’ needs
  • Mughals had given rights and freedom to women.
  • Akbar tried to put a ban on sati and encouraged widows’ remarriage and the creation of special markets for women to make them feel safe and more powerful.
  • Basically they promoted a delegated government with respect for human rights.

Babur, the first Mughal Emperor, was a son of Genghis Khan and Tamerlain. Babur succeeded his father as ruler of the state of Farghana in Turkestan when he was just 12 years old, but he was soon deposed by older relatives. In 1504, Babur traveled to Afghanistan and then returned to India, presumably at the behest of some Indian princes who decided to dispose of their rulers. Babur had disposed of the king, and he wanted to take over himself.

Babur preceded his son Humayun, who was a poor dictator, a great author, and a heroin user. He soon destroyed the kingdom. He finally regained the throne, but died shortly after breaking his spine down the steps. Although Humayan was definitely catastrophic as a monarch, his love of poetry and culture profoundly inspired his son Akbar, and helped to make the Mughal Empire both an artistic and a military force.

The Third Emperor, Jalal-ud-din Muhammad Akbar, is considered to be one of the great rulers of all time , regardless of region. Akbar ascended the throne at the age of 13, and proceeded to recapture the remaining territories lost from the Babur Dynasty. At the time of his death in 1605 he ruled much of northern, southern, and western India. Akbar has worked tirelessly to take over the hearts and minds of the Hindu community. While this may well have been for political reasons-he married a Hindu princess (and is said to have married several thousand wives for military and diplomatic purposes)-it was also part of his ideology.

Akbar ‘s son, Emperor Jahangir, re-elected Islam as a state religion and followed a policy of religious freedom. His court comprised a considerable number of Indian Hindus, Persian Shi’a and Sufis, and members of central heterodox Islamic sects. Jahangir also started constructing the majestic temples and gardens that the Mughals are often known for today, hiring hundreds of Persian architects to build palaces and construct splendid gardens.

The architectural accomplishments of the Mughals occurred between 1592 and 1666 during the rule of Jahangir ‘s son, Jahan. The Taj Mahal was commissioned by Jahan. The Taj Mahal stands for the pinnacle of the Mughal Empire; it symbolizes peace, strength and trust. The building is a mausoleum designed by Jahan for his wife Mumtaz, and has come to symbolize the love between two persons.

The time of the Great Moguls, which started in 1526 with the accession of Babur to the throne, ended with the death of Aurangzeb in 1707. Under Aurangzeb, the Mughal Empire achieved the height of its military strength, but the law remained chaotic. This was partially attributable to the indifference of the people to the bigotry and taxes of Aurangazeb, but also because the kingdom had actually been too large to be ruled effectively. And, some fifty years after his passing, the Mughal Rule disintegrated. Aurangzeb ‘s death was preceded by a war of succession between his three sons.

Highlights of Mann Ki Baat by PM Modi.

When PM Modiji was elected the Prime Minister for the first time in the year 2014 from that year in the month of October first episode of Mann ki Baat was held and till now our PM has done almost 68 talks through the radio programme.Mann ki Baat means Inner Thoughts which he started to connect with the audience and to share his thoughts on different things which happens in the country.This happens at the end of every month.

In todays Mann Ki Baat session held by PM Modiji he mostly focused on vocal for local,also explained the importance of Indian apps gaining importance,we will see some apps their work in detail.As the September month is witnessed as Nutrition month,so he highlighted some important points for that too.PM also spoke about the Made in India toys by taking into consideration for becoming Atmanirbhar and many other such topics like environment,festivals.

Atmanirbhar Innovation Challenge,which was launched by our PM on July 4th.In which 24 mobile apps were winners of the challenge.From these 24 apps PM took some name of the apps like Koo which is said to be the new Twitter in coming times,he also took the names of app like Zoho,Chingari which are gaining name and the fame for their respective roles.For this he also said about the importance of virtual games which has gained new popularity in recent times.

PM Modiji also said it is very important to build the toy sector in India.This is because India being the largest population country we just manufactures around 0.5% of the global toy market.It is really sad to see that despite being developing country we are lacking in some of the sectors.But it is assumed that in coming time India will definitely lead in this sector too.As PM took some name of toy manufacturing units such as “Channapatna in Ramnagram(Karnataka),Kondappli in Krishna(Andhra Pradesh),Thanjavur in Tamil Nadu,Dhubri in Assam,Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh there are many such places that we can count”.

In his talk he applauded the teachers for taking such great efforts in this lockdown and making student learn through different tricks despite everything being online.As September month is going to be celebrated as nutrition month he spoke that every person should have ample amount of nutrition so that he/she can do great work,be healthy and should take care of themselves.He also praised the efforts of the dog squad in the disaster management and also promoted to make your pets of Indian breed by considering the important point of atmanirbhar bharat.He also talked about one of the most beautiful festival of India Onam which is currently going on and also said there are many festivals which are related to the environment which brings great freshness to the society.

So in this was today’s Mann Ki Baat was held and many positive points were said by the PM.It is great to listen from him such things and it is proud moment for every citizen that India is progressing at a great speed and giving ample of opportunities to the young talent.So that the talent which we have does not get wasted.”Iss Naye Bharat Ki Nayi Pehchan“.
