India has about 60% of cultivable land. The thrust on manufacturing is said to affect agriculture negatively. It can even cause a permanent disruption of arable land.
It is also believed that the rapid industrialization can lead to a depletion of natural resources.
A fallout of inviting large-scale FDI is that local farmers and small entrepreneurs may not be able to face the competition from international players.
The campaign, with all its focus on manufacturing, can cause pollution and environmental side-effects.
There are serious lacunae in the physical infrastructure facilities in the country. For the campaign to be successful, it is necessary to build up the infrastructure available in the country and also reduce problems like corruption at the lowest levels.
I AM MALALA is the remarkable story of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls education and of the deep love of Malala’s parents for their daughter in a society that wants only sons. It makes us believe in the power of a person’s voice to inspire and bring the needed change in the world.
When the Taliban took control over the Swat valley, one girl spoke out with immense courage. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silent and fought for her right to education. She was born in a poor family with two brothers younger than her. On Tuesday, 9th of October 2012, she paid the ultimate price. She was shot point blank while returning home from school in a bus. She was not expected to survive. Instead, her miraculous recovery took her from a remote village Swat in Northern Pakistan to the United States of America. At sixteen years, she has become a global symbol for peaceful protest and she won the Youngest Nobel Prize for Peace.
Her goal is to raise her voice on behalf of millions of girls who are denied the right of education and realize their potential. She has constituted the Malala Fund which believes that every child has the power to change the world. All that they need is a chance.
The fund will help local communities to develop innovative solutions to build traditional approaches when the girl children will find an audience to their voice and thereby create a better tomorrow. One child, One teacher, One book, One Pen is the motto of the Malala Fund that strives to change the world through education.
The first half of the book Malala describes Pakistan’s history including the history of her ancestors and the northern region of Pakistan, Swat where she lives. Malala also shares stories of her family, giving the reader a glimpse into the culture of Pakistan from a young woman’s perspective. Many of the stories involve Malala’s father Ziauddin Yousafzai. She describes his involvement in local politics, in the community and his vocal support of education for boys and girls.
There’s no doubt in Malala’s passion and courage to stand-up for women’s rights stems from her father’s actions and character. Ziauddin Yousafzai defied Taliban orders by running a private school that encouraged girls to attend. Malala describes the challenges and frustrations her father faced when starting the school. The motto over the school’s door read “We are committed to build for your the call of the new era”. Her father believed the school’s students could fight the enemy with pens, not swords.
This book ‘I am Malala’ should be used in classes around the world. It is extremely powerful, and Malala is someone we can all learn from. When reading the book, we easily forget that Malala was just a child when most of these events happened. Most of us will not show one hundredth of her courage in our lifetime. She used her grief and her tragic past to build a cause and help solve the problems she sees as the most pressing. The fight is still going on and needs our attention, and Malala’s book is a testament to the power each and every one of us has to make the world a more equal place.

Why in different- different situation you take it differently?
Her I am to discuss with you about these two questions which are always in my mind. Whatever it is a song, a book, a quote, n scolding from your elders or anything else it can also be some movie which inspired you to do what you are doing right now at a moment.
We have various kinds of emotions that we deal with every now and then because of the thing happing around us and imagine if suddenly any quote, music or anything you heard. What you will d
Anything you hears only happens to you for some reasons wherever you are same thing which you heard while you were angry made you more sad but when you were angry it provided you sudden calmness which may last long.
Whenever you are feeling sad you understand the lines deepest massage and you think its made only for
Whenever you are in any other situation you only understand the upper words of the sentence you heard.
Suppose the Quote you heard is
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” ― Oscar Wilde
Now its time for example:-
There is a man name ‘Nobody’
There he was sitting and suddenly many people came to him and started yelling at him he couldn’t understand the reason for it and after the continuous scolding he got so angry that he left the place and when somewhere. There Nobody heard this quote “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
― Oscar Wilde.
He thought that these all people are blaming him for no reason he should response to them that however I am its not there right to yields at me without any reason its me that is. Nobody went and yielded back at the peoples who yielded at him.
Now suppose a different situation where he was just sitting and was in a piece of mind where he can understand why such things are happening. Same as above same people came to him and yield at him again he went to some quiet place there he thought of the answer to his questions why were people yielding at him. Then to get the answer to his question he decided to go to that people and ask them why they were yielding at him. He went and asked them they answered him and told them about a mistake which he did last time which resulted in some sort of mess around them. After hearing the reason, he apologized to them and later the people also calmed down and so Nobody and then he tried to correct his mistake.
It is all about understanding the correct meaning in whichever situation you are in.
Now try to go through various quotes few listed below!
“I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.”
― Marilyn Monroe
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”

The victims of sexual exploitation area unit preponderantly girls and women. astonishingly, in half-hour of the countries that provided data on the gender of traffickers, girls frame the most important proportion of traffickers.

“Anyone who has struggled with poverty knows how extremely expensive it is to be poor” – James Baldwin Poverty is a condition where people face actual shortage of resources required for living. Poverty is usually described in economics terms but in reality it is much more than that. It is not merely lack of necessities but it also extends to issues pertaining to deprivation, discrimination and social disadvantage. It can also relate to unequal distribution of wealth in a society. ‘The cycle of poverty’ as they say, explains why poverty continues amongst the same sections of society. Starting with lack of resources, poor people live a life poverty wherein they cannot get proper education. This leads to unemployment and further poverty. Thus it is evident that poverty begets poverty. Poverty is often associated with deprivation. Here a person feels he/she is not getting what he/she deserves. Poverty and deprivation have their own impacts on individuals. Poor people have low motivation and low aspirations. They believe in fate or luck and tend to have low self esteem. It’s not an individual way, but a belief system which is formed by their experiences in a life filled with poverty. This is called the ‘culture of poverty’ and it serves as both cause and effect of poverty. It convinces poor people that they will remain poor and this belief is carried over from one generation to the next. Poverty and deprivation are also linked to social disadvantage. It is very true that certain sections of the society enjoy more privilege than others. As for poor people, they are not allowed to enjoy the same privileges as the rest of the society. Prolonged deprivation effects individuals espacially children. The environment in which a child grows significantly affects his/her development and it is reflected in their task performance. It has been observed that intellectual functioning and task performance of deprived people are lower than those of who are not deprived.
Social disadvantage and discrimination go hand in hand. Once you are a part of disadvantaged section, you are bound to face discrimination at some point of time. Discrimination refers to behaviours or practices that make distinction between rich and poor. Obviously the rich are favoured over poor and disadvantaged. This discrimination is quite visible in matters of education, employment, social interaction etc. Even if children of poor people have skills and capabilities, they fail to pursue their dreams because they cannot avail the opportunities rest of the society can. Social disadvantage and discrimination together contribute towards preventing the poor people from improving their economic condition. It can be seen that discrimination is the cause and effect of poverty as well. Some people say that poor people are themselves responsible for poverty and that they lack motivation or abilities to utilise the opportunities that they are given. This view however, is very negative and does not help in making them any better. The economic system is made in such a way that it doesn’t do any good to poor people either. It is therefore safe to say that poverty is like poison and once it enters the lives of the people, it continuously deteriorates them.

Sergio Ramos, one of Real Madrid’s most accomplished players, has bid an emotional farewell to the Santiago Bernabeu club after 16 years in which he played 671 times and won 22 titles. Only two players in history have scored more Champions League final goals (neither is a defender like Ramos), and no one has led Real Madrid to European Cup or Champions League success as many times (three) as this Sevilla native. A natural force is now ready to leave his club.
ACHIEVEMENTS– Sergio’s career is decorated with trophies and records both at the club and international level. He is 2004 U-19 Europe Cup champion(Spain), 2010 FIFA World Cup Winner(Spain), two times Europe Cup Champion(Spain). At the club level, with Real Madrid,he is four times Champions League winner, five times Spanish Champion, two times Spanish Cup winner, four times Spanish Super Cup winner, four times FIFA Club World Cup winner, and three times UEFA Supercup winner.His €27 million transfer from Sevilla to Madrid in 2005, when he was 19 years old, remains a record fee for a Spanish youth. Ramos has scored in 17 straight Liga seasons, a Liga record for a defender. Ramos is one of only a few defenders to have scored in two different European Cup finals, and he is the only one to have done it during the UEFA Champions League era. . He is LaLiga’s top goalscoring defender of all time(68 goals). Ramos has been named to the FIFPro World11 eleven times, a defender record and the third-most all-time. He has also been included to the UEFA Team of the Year nine times, a defender record and the third-most of any player.

SERGIO RAMOS LAST MATCH IN REAL MADRID JERSEY
WHY HE IS LEAVING-Ramos requested a new two-year contract to stay in Madrid, but Los Blancos president Florentino Perez was unwilling to break his policy of only offering one-year contracts to players beyond the age of 30. Conversations between Perez and Ramos had been going on for a year and had lasted into June. However, neither party was willing to make a concession. He is no longer the man he once was at the age of 35. Injury has badly affected his season, particularly in the second half, and Luis Enrique has decided to keep him out of Spain’s team for Euro 2020. The club tried its best to convince Ramos to stay for one year but it was too late.
FUTURE– Despite his age, Ramos is one of the world’s top defenders. A number of prominent European clubs are still keeping an eye on Ramos, who will be available on a free transfer. According to reports, the Premier League three of Manchester United, Chelsea, and Manchester City are interested in bringing Ramos to England. Paris Saint-Germain, another French powerhouse, has been connected with the defender. These are the only clubs which will be able to handle the Spaniard’s reported €12million annual salary demands. Everyone, including Real Madrid’s fans are curious to know about his next destination
Malaria can be fatal disease for human beings. Approximately 300 million people around the world get infected with malaria every year. More than 2 million people die every year due to malaria disease.
Malaria is caused by a protozoan parasite Plasmodium. This disease spreads through the bite of an insect vector- the female Anopheles mosquito feeds upon plant juice.
The name Malaria was proposed by Macculochin 1827. C.L.A. Laveran in 1880, a French physician, discovered the Malarial parasite – Plasmodium in the blood of a malaria patient.He received Nobel prize for this discovery in 1907.
SYMPTOMS-
Main symptoms of malaria include headache, nausea, muscular pain and high fever. Each malarial attack is of 6 to 10 hours duration and consists of the three stages:
1.Cold stage, feeling of extreme cold and shivers
2.Hot stage, high fever, faster respiration and heartbeat and
3.Sweating stage, i.e., due to profuse sweating, temperature of the body goes down to normal.
Even after the patient is cured of malaria, the patient feel weak and becomes anemic. Malaria may also secondarily cause enlargement of spleen and liver. Presence of malarial parasite can be checked by blood test.
PREVENTION-
Malaria is an infectious disease. It can spread from an infected person to a healthy person (host) by the bite of female Anopheles mosquitoes (vectors). The only way to prevent malaria is to take precaution against mosquito bites.
We can protect ourselves from the bite of mosquitoes by following methods:
1.Wire- gauge should be used on doors and windows of houses to prevent entry of mosquitoes.
2.Insect- repellents (e.g., Odomos) should be used to prevent mosquito- bite.
3.One should sleep under mosquito nets.
4.Mosquito larvae can be killed by sprinkling kerosene oil on large- sized water bodies. Some larvivorous fishes such as Gambusia, minnows or trouts or birds (e.g., ducks) can be introduced in water bodies. These animals feed on mosquito larvae and hence the population of mosquito is checked. This is called biological control of mosquito.
5.Adult mosquitoes can be killed by spraying insecticides (e.g., BHC, malathion) on the walls of human dwellings. Insecticides are chemical poisons (toxicants), hence, regulation of mosquito population by them is called chemical control. The insecticide DDT is not used in the chemical control of mosquitoes, as it persists in the environment for much longer time and can cause toxicity by accumulating in the body of fishes, birds and humans through food chain.
6.The breeding grounds should be destroyed. Thus, the ditches, puddles or swamps around human dwellings should be drained or filled. We should not allow the collection of water in any uncovered containers such as water tank, pot, cooler, flower pot, discarded tires, etc.
ØRecently Allan Porter and his team produced a genetically engineered aquatic bacteria at National Institute of Singapore. When mosquito larvae feed on these bacteria, they get killed by the toxic substance produced by these bacteria. This can prove to be an effective biological control method against malaria.

A drug named Quinine, which is extracted from the bark of Cinchona tree, is used to treat a person suffering from malaria. This drug kills most of the stages of malarial parasite. There are certain other drugs (medicines) which should be taken on the advice of doctor. Scientists are trying hard to develop an antimalarial vaccine.
ØCentral Drug Research Institute (CDRI), Lucknow has developed an anti- cerebral malaria drug called – Arteether. This drug is extracted from a herbaceous plant Artemisia annua belonging to family Asteraceae.

Love the most complicated yet simple word in pronunciation. This is the word we have heard millions of time. And also have spoken multiple times. Now If we define love what would be it?. Something which give you happiness and pleasure is love. The person with whom you are happy and know that he or she can make you happy everytime.
Today we are talking about love in relationships. Relationships one more complicated word. And in actual relationships are complicated. The start of every relationship is from I think the word love. In most cases this is not love. How can you just a say person you saw ? That’s what is like not love. And we assume it as love and enter into relationships that are going to end soon.
May be with the passage of time you eventually fall or may be you dont. The situation is worst when one and the other doesnot. This is what we call DEVDAS stage. Person in Stage of singing TADAP TADAP KE IS DIL SE AAG NIKLTI RAHI.. And he feels all sad songs. Ohh damn this is so good and it was written for me.
Relationships are never smooth. Have you ever seen any marriage smooth? So how can be a relationship smooth? Your relationship can only be successful if you both understand each other. How you can run your vehicle? Sounds like marriage yaa it is. But the roots of both are same. Trust and understanding.
Every relationship is different in its own and you dont need a LOVE GURU for it. Follow what your heart says and everything is best then. Sometimes expert advice can ruin your life. Use your mind. #kbhi toh istmal kro.. and #phle istmal kro fir vishwas kro. 🤣🤣🤣.. Sorry for the joke.

Parenting has never been an easy job. This Parenting Month, UNICEF USA highlights the importance of mental health support as parents carry an even heavier load than normal.
After more than a year of the pandemic, parents and caregivers continue to struggle to keep children learning and their families functioning, often in the face of worsening poverty. Parents are forced to balance their responsibilities for child care and employment, with a disproportionate burden placed on women. “COVID-19 and its socio-economic consequences have piled new forms of stress onto parents and exacerbated pre-existing vulnerabilities and adversity within families,” says Paloma Escudero, UNICEF Director of Communications. The repercussions contribute to a devastating mental health crisis affecting families and young people. To meet those needs, UNICEF has made UNICEF mental health a 2021 global advocacy priority
In a recent Congressional briefing on mental health hosted by UNICEF USA, Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) stressed that “the Lancet Commission estimated 15 to 23 percent of children around the world live with a parent with a mental disorder.” Children can only thrive and flourish when they feel safe and protected, when family, caregiver and community connections are stable and when their basic needs are met. This makes our work to reimagine the future for every child even more urgent, and we cannot do it without reimagining parenting.
Evidence-based parenting programs, mental health services for parents and family-friendly policies are proven accelerators to drive change across multiple child life outcomes. The pandemic has highlighted the importance of nurturing care and parenting in fulfilling the rights of every child.
As U.S. government leaders seek ongoing ways to provide COVID-19 support and relief, greater access to mental health services and psychosocial support for children, youth and their families must be a priority both in the short- and long-term.UNICEF is also calling on governments and businesses to invest in scaling up parenting programs and family-friendly policies to build more resilient, prosperous and fair societies
UNICEF USA has proudly partnered with the organization ZERO TO THREE to advocate for family-friendly policies. These policy solutions include investing in quality, accessible and affordable child care; paid leave; early head start programs; infant and early childhood mental health care; and economic security and family support. As UNICEF Executive Director, Henrietta Fore has said: “To truly be ‘For Every Child,’ you have to also be ‘For Every Parent,’ and that means making sure parents have the time necessary to provide their children with a nurturing and loving environment upon which their learning, emotional and social development depends.”
UNICEF USA staff member Fabienne Goldgaber, became a new parent during the pandemic. One of the biggest takeaways from her personal experience was learning to ask for help and giving herself the grace as a new mom trying to figure things out. “About a month after I gave birth, I experienced mild postpartum depression. I had to really focus on my mental health once I recognized what was happening … I knew I had to find time to make me happy in order to give my daughter what she needs and part of that included reaching out to my therapist. More support in terms of mental health is needed for new parents, and parents in general, especially after giving birth. Whether it’s the first, second or third [child], it’s still a transition and adjustment.”
Now more than ever, we need to reimagine the support we give to parents so that they have the time, resources and services to give children the best start in life. UNICEF Parenting continues to grow and serve as a trusted reference point for parents around the world, especially in navigating the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.Speak out
Call on Congress to address the need for increased investment in mental health and psychosocial support for children in global programs as well as for children in the U.S.

Pandemic has had drastic effects on the world economy leaving many people jobless, but the IT industry has stood the storm quite well. It has been one of the few most stable fields. The thrashing effects of COVID-19 do not seem to be even touching the IT industry as it is rapidly growing and is all set to hit close to $6 trillion by 2023.
The pace of IT market growth is quite impressive. It is presumed that the IT outsourcing market seems to be growing from a figure of $342.9 billion in 2020 to $410.2 billion by 2027, which is unimaginably high in such a condition of global economic crisis.
This begs for the need for more IT experts in the field and it seems to grow from 24 million currently to over 28.7 million IT experts and developers by 2024. If you’ve responded to this need and want to start a career in IT, here are some aspects of the job, and the learning curve leading up to it, you should be aware of.
Essentials You Should Know Before Starting a Career in IT Being a beginner at anything can be frustrating. You might be unsure about every single step you take or lack help in choosing a career, programming language, or devising a learning plan.
Following is an account of 10 things that might sound so simple to many IT experts but weren’t so obvious at the start of their IT career.
Focus on Practice-Based Learning Beginners often place too much emphasis on theory, while programming is a kind of practical skill. So, ensure you’re focusing on the practical part, coding itself. So when you are choosing programming learning sources, keep in mind code practicing availability. Here we have the top five online programming courses and platforms where you can find such courses:
Codecademy Codecademy is an effective online resource with professional guidance to start off with basics. But make sure to practice the concepts yourself, as their course lacks the practical part to some extent.
Stanford Online Stanford Online has an excellent number of introductory courses with many teaching assistants that help students understand the Basics of IT thoroughly.
Udacity Udacity has many courses launched for individuals, for businesses and even government. It offers an extensive learning archive and the assistance of the mentors. Which is quite helpful to learn programming languages.
Codegym Codegym Java course contains 1200+ practical tasks. It starts with the basics, Java Syntax, and logically moves to the complicated learning. The best part is that 80% of the learning process is based on practical assignments, which helps you grasp programming quite well.
EdX Tonnes of tutorials on edX help build the useful concepts that every programmer requires to start his career in IT, especially programming.
Communicate Newbies lack experience and don’t consider seeking guidance from experts. Make sure that you aren’t one of those beginners.
Joining communities such as Stackoverflow, Reddit, CodeRanch and others don’t only have you covered for expert advice and guidance, but also provide you a sense of moral support. Create your account on Github, read and comment on HackerNews and freeCodeCamp… Look for different communities!
You can interact with your fellows who’re facing the same situations, being able to relate to someone else’s progress helps a lot with releasing stress.
The communities have thousands of IT experts with years of hands-on experience who can show you the actual picture of many situations and keep you from taking wrong turns as you head towards your goals.
Here are a few resources you can browse for advice and support:
Develop a Habit of Good Research Never try to save your time on research. Google is a whole world of information. Superficial skimming about a certain topic won’t help you at all. But do it in moderation, otherwise you risk burying yourself in a heap of informational waste. So, build a habit of diligent research.
Stick to Basics at the Start Practice is essential no doubt, but you won’t be able to practice without solid base knowledge, so go step-by-step and do not skip learning the fundamentals of programming first before moving on to the concepts of higher complexity. This way learning complicated levels would be easier. Skipping the basics is just like skipping the alphabet and directly heading towards writing a whole essay.
Learn Several Programming Languages Many beginners stick to one programming language only and deem it sufficient, while others think that learning many of them at once is a good idea. But both of them are wrong.
Taking the right decision regarding what languages to learn and how to order them is important. Do not try to stuff your brain with many languages at a time, though settling for just one programming language for the rest of your career isn’t good either.
Take it in a sequential order, and start from Java, for example. It has a robust structure that helps you develop a very thorough understanding of how programming actually works. After that, grasping other languages won’t be that hectic for you.
Be Open for Changes Working with a “know-it-all” attitude doesn’t work well with an IT career. No matter how long you’ve been in the field or how well you have trained yourself at it, there’s always a lot to learn about programming as this field is one of the fastest-growing ones. Growth comes with several changes and innovations.
As the programming field is growing daily, do not try to be stubborn about your concepts, never step out of the way of learning. Keep learning new things and stay up-to-date and well informed to the maximum possible level. Because obviously, you don’t want to be somebody with old-school technical knowledge. You need to keep up the pace if you wish to stay in the race!
Organize Yourself Being a mess can end you up with a mess! And here, mess refers to those unorganized working patterns. Being unorganized can generally be disastrous to not only your work but to your mental health as well. No doubt what you do is important but how you do it is equally important.
Being a programmer and unorganized would only increase your pressure reducing your efficiency. Organize your projects, set reminders, make schedules for yourself accordingly and make sure to follow them. Without schedules all you do is waste your time, ending up all stressed out and frustrated.
Focus on Fewer Things at a Time Some people can’t help thinking about things they are not doing and need to do while doing other things. Similarly, other people tend to commit to more than one task at a time. They wonder if this might be a good way to increase efficiency levels.
But unfortunately, the reality is the other way around. Trying to handle more than 1 task at a time will just end up messing up all the tasks you’re trying to accomplish. Try to focus on one of your goals, whether it’s a project or learning a programming language, everything takes a lot of individual focus and attention to be accomplished quite well.
Fight the Obstacles The most heart-breaking part is to see talented people giving up as they see obstacles coming their way.
Don’t give up no matter what, believe in yourself and your potential energy that can help you fight every single obstacle. No matter how hard things might get in your way, be ready to face it. And in no time you’ll gain confidence that will make you simply unstoppable in the field.
Relax and Enjoy Your Work People say that if you love your work, you don’t work a single day in your life. You’re just having fun every day. And no professional can be good at their work unless they love it and are passionate about it. Similar is the case with IT professionals, no doubt this requires long hours of focus. But the day you fall in love with what you do, you definitely will not want to stop and programming would be your favorite piece of cake.
So, just relax and do not stress yourself about things that get frustrating in the beginning. Just love your work and things will start getting a lot better in just no time.
Conclusion These 10 recommendations have been deduced by many experts to help newbies see a bigger picture at the start to understand things better and not take steps they might regret taking later on.
Even if you’re not a beginner and regret some moves, it’s never too late to make a change. So stick to these 10 tips to make sure you never end up saying that “wish I knew this in the start!” at some point in your career. Good luck!
