Gopal Krishna Gokhale CIE was an Indian liberal political leader and a social reformer during the Indian Independence Movement. Gokhale was a senior leader of the Indian National Congress and the founder of the Servants of India Society.
Gopala Krishna Gokhale’s Speech👨🏫:
Gopala Krishna Gokhale,a great freedom fighter and social reformer was a guru to Mahatma Gandhi. He supported the education of women and welcomed Western education in India. He delivered this speech in response to the address present to him by the students of Chennai (then Madras) on 25th July 1911 at Mumbai.
The sheltered Life of students:
He was remained of his own student he was addressing them. Students lead a very sheltered life but they have certain responsibilities and they are expected to perform certain duties.
He list these duties under four heads ;
⭐A student’s first duty is to him/her self. Acquiring knowledge is one’s primary duty-not only for one’s success in the examination but also for one’s life. One can gain the ulmost advantage as a student if one seek knowledge with devotion and whole-hearted love.
⭐The second requisite is to mould one's character. It is invidious (unjust) to distinguish between the value of character and knowledge. Both are indispensable (necessary).This character must show itself in sincerity, vigorous action and in lift sentiments. One needs to acquire a character which will raise the whole life of the people admist whom one moves and for whom one is expected to work.
⭐A strong,firm and noble character makes one a good citizen. A strong character is needed to occupy the place of seniors and be a good example to Juniors,and the succeeding generation. In short,both character and knowledge are absolutely necessary for students.
⭐A student's duty towards his follow students will teach him/her co-operation which includes adjustment, giving in at times and standing up for one's view without hurting other's feeling. Such a sense of co-operation should be developed into a habit to last one's whole life time. Without it, life in future may be miserable. A student's third duty is towards those who have authority over him/her.
Obedience to parents :
Obedience to parents is essential for acquiring knowledge. Parents take care of their children and find the means to enable them to pursue studies. Their withes should prevail in all matters. Students lean on parents till they can stand on their own feet. Once their education is completed they should use their own judgement to make decisions.
Reverence to Teacher👨🏫 :
Students must show reverence (respect) to their teachers. A student learn values of discipline,and co-operation with his fellow only in an institution. The true Spirit of discipline and co-operation is gained only at school or at college and cannot to gained later.
Duty to government :
A student owes his/her duty towards the government which is the highest authority over him. All students who are simple-minded should not fall a prey to disturbing/ agitating emotions. They should not exercise independent judgement in these instances. As long as they are students, loyalty and patriotism should govern theirind and heart. Hostility or negative attitude towards the government will give raise to Distrubances.
Responsibility to the wider world :
Finally a student should be aware of needs, living conditions, Injustice, struggles and sufferings of those around him. Sympathy towards the afflicted (affected) , willingness to redress and remedy should be their duty. Awareness and observance of the public needs comes before commitment.
Conclusion :
Gokhale’s speech to the students suits students of all times. The talk gives a clear insight into the life of gokhale,the reverence he had towards himself, parents, teachers, friends,the community around him and his country.
‘I will do it some other time’ is the biggest lie one can tell oneself. To start with this phrase, it is rightly said that this is the biggest lie we tell to ourselves because there is no tomorrow to do a work. If it’s not today, then it’s never, and if we elongate procrastinating a work it becomes our habit. It is possible that when we delay or postpone a work it would give us a sigh of relief for that very moment, thinking we don’t need to do this thing now and we will continue this later on but later on this is the thing which starts creating a mental pressure on our mind and we begin to panic around. In a way, it can also hamper our on going work because then we would have to stop that for a while and do the previous work first.
WHY DO WE PROCRASTINATE?
We have several reasons to why we procrastinate a work but the most dominating of all are the psychological reasons. When we need to get something done, we rely primarily on our self-control in order to bring our self to do it. Our self-control often receives support from our motivation which helps us get things done in a timely manner. In some cases, we experience certain demotivating factors such as anxiety or fear of failure, which have an opposite effect than our motivation. In addition, we sometimes experience certain hindering factors such as exhaustion or rewards that are far in the future, which interfere with our self-control and motivation.
People sometimes procrastinate as result of their perfectionism. Perfectionism can lead to procrastination in many ways, such as by making someone so afraid to commit a mistake that they end up not taking any action at all, or by making someone so worried of presenting something with any flaws that they end up reworking instead of moving forward.
Laziness is another factor that leads us to procrastinate from our work most of the times. This may come from unhealthy food habits and untimed sleep schedule. Thus, it is always said to lead a healthy lifestyle with healthy food habits and a good sleep schedule with some exercises included. Food habits affect in a way that if we have to work at sometime and we have a heavy meal before the same then we would probably end up taking a nap or resting instead of doing our assigned work for the time being. Similarly, if we don’t take adequate amount of sleep we would always feel tired and reluctant to work.
Fear of evaluation or negative feedback can lead to procrastination as well. This happens because people are afraid to be judged for a negative impact left back at them. In many cases, people’s fear in this regard are irrationally exaggerated or unjustified, either because the chances of receiving negative feedback are low or because the consequences of that feedback aren’t as significant as they feel.
HOW TO AVOID THIS?
As it is rightly said that it is much better to accept the truth than to believe in a lie that you already know is going to end one or the other day and you need to face the reality similarly, we should avoid compiling our work for some other day rather do the same on the spot, as and when required. We should set abstract goals and always keep ourselves motivated to work for the same with a positive energy. Do the work as and when required!

A Corner of a Foreign Field is a fascinating fusion of Indian history and Indian cricket.The book is divided into four chapters titled Race, Caste, Religion and Nation respectively. The first three chapter greatly benefit from thorough research and the skill of a great historian. The last chapter contains more of the authors feeling and opinion. Nevertheless, the book does not suffer from the personal feeling of the author. Throughout the book, the reader can experience the author’s love for the game.
Palwankar Baloo
A Corner of a Foreign Field: The Indian History of a British Sport is a book about, one feels, the life of cricket in India so far. It is not just a history of the sport, but also a as much objective document of the sport as is possible. Cricket in India, as it is often said, is more than a sport. It evokes strong feelings from the audience and it won’t be an exaggeration to say that the team carries the burden of expectations of a billion people. Every on and off the field happening related to cricket is closely watched and excites opinions from all. This book views the unique sport through the lenses of race, religion, caste and nation. It speaks about the beginnings of cricket in India, how people reacted to this sport, its growth, impact and reception, BCCI, politics and much more. The book also gives insights into lives of people connected to the sport in one way or the other. The tales of cricketers like C. K Nayudu, Vijay Merchant, Palwankar Baloo and his brothers, Vijay Hazare makes it an interesting experience. It is astonishing how the game reflects the society at that point of time and the impacts each have had on one another throughout their history. It portrays the socio-cultural, political, economical aspects of the society by placing cricket at its centre. The book reflects the feelings of both an enthusiastic admirer of the sport and a historian keen on the socio-political happenings. The tales about cricketers are also good character sketches of the person. Not surprising, the story of Palwankar Baloo and his family is at the heart of this book as this originally began as a book about the life of Baloo. The book draws information heavily from newspapers of the day and the author uses this information beautifully to breathe life into the stories. The responses of various presses to the sport make for an interesting read. The knowledge of the author is seamless woven into the narrative. The writing of this book makes it an engaging experience even for a person not acquainted with the sport. Even for a fan of cricket, the book has much to offer and provide a great experience. It provides a whole lot new information and perspective even to a devoted follower of the sport.
The internet has been taken over by Facebook and other forms of social media. People use social media because they believe it improves their life. Is it, however, true? Is it true that people go on Facebook to socialise or to study other people’s posts to see what’s going on? Are they expressing their dissatisfaction with politics or government entities in general? (Venting has been demonstrated to increase rather than decrease anger.) Are individuals battling on Facebook or other social media platforms, ruining relationships rather than strengthening them or people’s lives? Instead, it was shown that the majority of people use it to consume knowledge, which experts discovered leaves them feeling empty and unfulfilled. Another study published in the journal “Current Opinion in Psychology” in 2016 found that envying other individuals on social media leads to depression. When you’re sick, sad, or alone, browsing through vacation images from someone’s recent trip to Hawaii, positive relationship statuses, parties, or people having a good time in general makes you feel even more alone and melancholy.
What Motivates People to Use Social Media?
People use social media for a variety of reasons, including keeping in touch with others and monitoring them. Surveillance has been utilised throughout history to protect people from danger and to keep them safe. However, the majority of social media monitoring of partners or ex-partners does not fulfil that criterion. “Interpersonal electronic surveillance monitoring” is the phrase for this. Low-quality relationships, low happiness, and terrible connections in general are all indicators of online surveillance.
What Happens When People Spend Too Much Time on Social Media?
Researchers at the University of Michigan found that the more time people spend on Facebook, the more miserable they get. When browsing through the wonderful aspects of other people’s lives, it can also cause sentiments of jealously, resentment, and inadequacy. “Results showed that Facebook usage had a strong negative link with self-esteem,” according to a study conducted at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden. In other words, those who spent more time on Facebook had poorer self-esteem, according to the findings.”
For some people, Facebook might be a trigger for P.T.S.D. For many African Americans and others, the footage of Philandro Castro and Sterling being streamed live on Facebook sparked their P.T.S.D. There were many expressions of mental and psychological concerns on Facebook in the week following Sterling’s and Castro’s deaths. The African-American community was one of the hardest hit. They are not, however, the only ones who have been touched by such horrific recordings of individuals dying at the hands of police officers.
Finally, social media can have a detrimental impact on people. It’s a public bulletin board where anyone can publish anything. However, there is research underway that suggests that this type of “socialising” is actually harmful to humans. It can stymie the healing process that people go through after rejection, heighten feelings of inadequacy and jealously, and cause P.T.S.D., as well as make people feel worse.
How To Keep Social Media From Complicating Your Relationship | Psychology Today It’s usual for love partners to use social media and social networking sites to keep tabs on each other. So, how can you avoid your love connections becoming more complicated as a result of social media? What are some of the thorny topics you should be aware of?

Ecology and Equity is principally a book about the history of resource use in India after post-independent India. The second part of the book certain schematic solutions based on the findings of the authors. It is a book that caters to both people who are alien to environmental issues and people already informed on this subject. The writing is lucid and precise which makes the reader curious on this subject.
In this book, too, the authors present a original analytic framework to classify the huge population of India. The theoretical framework is based on the idea of a ‘resource catchment’ – the place from which resources are collected for use by people. Using the example of the current Indian society, it divides population into three categories: omnivores, ecological refugees, and ecosystem people. The first category, omnivores(includes businessmen and entrepreneurs), uses most of the resources. They are the section that really benefits from economical development. Displaced peasants and tribal groups comprise ecological refugees. Development plans devoid of ecological consideration have resulted in their displacement. They are victims of overexploitation of resources by omnivores. The last category, the ecosystem people, consists the most of the Indian population. This category relies on resources within their space for fulfilling their requirements. They are dependent on the natural resource base in their living area and have been dependent on these resources traditionally. They grow their own crops to meet their food requirements. Though the classification of more than a billion people into three categories seems too simple and insufficient, it serves the purpose of the authors. The book offers a new development agenda after considering the ecological factors, that could benefit the majority. The authors propose for a development mission on the basis of local communities under a decentralized political system.
The authors describe the disruptive use of natural resources in the current era and shortcomings of the ideologies followed in the current society. Theories that existed before 1970s tell very little of man’s interaction with nature. Growing ecological threats have necessitated the requirement for new framework. The authors have developed this framework for better understanding of ecological problems and history of resource use, and to make the readers conscious of environmental problems from its roots. The book stresses the need for development strategies to be ecologically prudent. It shows the relationship between social conflicts and ecological factors. They hope to build a country based on decentralization of power and increasing the participation of communities in the matters of resources. After reading this book, one begins to look at environmental problems from a different perspective.

The police are a subject that is governed by states under the Constitution. As a result, each of the states has its own law enforcement agencies. The centre is also permitted to maintain its own police forces in order to help states in maintaining law and order. it keeps seven core police units and a few additional police organisations for specialised responsibilities like intelligence collecting, investigation, research and record-keeping, and training. The primary function of police forces is to uphold and enforce laws, investigate crimes, and protect public safety. To effectively fulfil their function in such a huge and populous country as India, police forces must be well-equipped in terms of people, weaponry, forensics, communication, and transportation support. They also require operational flexibility to carry out their obligations competently, as well as favourable working conditions (e.g., regulated working hours and advancement chances), while being held accountable for bad performance or abuse of authority.
In September 2006, the Supreme Court issued a landmark decision ordering all states and union territories to implement police reforms. The Supreme Court issued a ruling in which it ordered states and union territories to follow seven binding directions that would kick-start changes.
The following are the six directives:
1. Limit political influence: Make sure the state government does not exert undue influence or pressure on the police.
2. Ensure that the Director-General of Police is appointed through a merit-based, transparent process and that he or she has a minimum tenure of two years. 3. Fix a minimum tenure: Ensure that other operational police officers (such as Superintendents of Police in charge of a district and Station House Officers in charge of a police station) have a minimum term of two years. 4. Separate the tasks of investigating and preserving law and order in the police force.
5. Set established a Police Establishment Board to decide and make recommendations on transfers, postings, promotions, and other service-related matters for police officers up to and including the rank of Deputy Superintendent of Police. 6. Establish a Police Complaints Authority in each state: A Police Complaints Authority should be established at the state level to investigate public complaints against police officers with the rank of Superintendent of Police and above in cases of serious misconduct, such as custodial death, grievous bodily harm, or rape in police custody.
A question is Aries “Why we need Police Reforms?” Let’s look at some of the grounds for police reform in more detail:
Colonial Law: Even though our police are still founded on colonial law, we are aware that the British have used police as an instrument to stifle people’s voices and for personal purposes, and that our revered government is doing the same.
Custodial Death: There have been numerous occurrences of custodial death, which refers to death in police/judicial custody as a result of torture or pressure. The Supreme Court of India issued a guideline against custodial death in the D.K. Basu judgement in 1996-1997.
The “United Nations Convention on Torture” has only been signed by India, but it has yet to be passed by Parliament. Even while there is no formal legislation against torture, we do have judgement.
Political Interference: Due to the interference of political leaders, police officers are unable to carry out their duties. For officers in higher positions, there is no minimal tenure security or even posting security.
Conclusion
At this moment, India requires police reforms so that people perceive police as a resource rather than a burden. However, due to personal interests, the government is not putting it into effect. I hope that the administration recognises the need for police reforms in today’s society and works to implement them.
The premise of Haikyu!! is simple: middle schooler Shouyou Hinata happens to see a volleyball match on TV one day. He watches the Little Giant of Karasuno High School score point after point by jumping higher than anyone else, outplaying his tall opponents. And Hinata, short for his age, realizes that he could play volleyball too. When Hinata finally makes it to his first tournament in his third year of middle school, his team is crushed in the first round by a team led by setter Tobio Kageyama, a temperamental genius. Hinata vows to crush him the next time they meet on the court… only to walk into the volleyball gym on his first day at Karasuno, and see Kageyama practicing his serves. The rest of the series follows the unlikely pair and their teammates on their journey to the national championships and beyond.
What really makes Haikyu!! stand out, and what got me hooked despite my generally lukewarm attitudes towards sports stories and male protagonists, was the depth of character development everyone gets. It’s not just a story about Hinata and Kageyama. It’s also a story about their teammates, their coaches, their rivals, and everyone else around them who plays a role in their development. Many chapters feature flashback sequences showing the reader how a rival team member we were seeing for the first time got to where they are today, making it impossible not to care for every character the reader encounters.
Even though it’s a story about a boy’s volleyball team, the women in the story (the managers, sisters, and girls volleyball team members) have their own arcs and interests not centered around the men. In other sports manga I have read, the team managers were only interested in helping the team move forward. In Haikyu!!, first year manager Hitoka Yachi’s entire introduction to the story is about her discovering what she wants for herself, and how she wants to achieve that. Yachi and third year manager Kiyoko Shimizu have their own interests, goals and personalities separate from how they relate to the team.
Where Haikyu!! sometimes falls short is its pacing. The weekly manga spent almost a full calendar year on a single match between Karasuno and another school, yet the transition into the final arc of the story felt very sudden and rushed. Without giving away too much, the characters’ high school life ends abruptly, and flashes forward to their lives several years later with no warning. The drastic shift in direction was entirely unexpected by most readers, yet many grew to welcome it as the story developed further and flashback sequences elaborated on the years in between. Furudate’s decision to continue the story beyond the typical high school sports manga confines was a bold choice, and while it may be alienating to some readers, others find it exciting and refreshing.
The art style also shifts dramatically as the comic goes on. The characters become more angular and stylized, and the action more exaggerated and expressive. It’s not as noticeable when reading archivally, but it is kind of surprising to see such style drift in a manga, even a long-running one.
One of the recurring themes in Haikyu!! is the idea of flight. At first, Hinata seems too short to succeed at volleyball, a sport in which height is crucial to scoring points and winning games. But Hinata is capable of jumping extraordinarily high, and with the right teammates, he soars. In chapter 30, Karasuno’s coach says, “Because we don’t have wings, humans are always searching for different ways to fly.”
Puberty is the period of rapid physical, mental, and social changes that occurs in teenagers between the ages of 11 and 13. For teenagers, these years of considerable transition can be rather perplexing, resulting in restlessness and moodiness. Deep emotional changes and physical development can be a source of emotional distress for many children, making them prone to temptations and poor judgments. While this is a difficult time for the child, it also marks the beginning of an usual chasm between the youngster and his or her parents, leaving no place for the child to overcome or talk about the stresses they are under or the feelings they are experiencing. Teenagers may believe that no one, particularly their parents, understands their feelings. As a result, they are enraged, alone, and perplexed as they deal with complex concerns such as identity, peers, sexual behaviour, career, studies, drinking, and drug usage. Families are usually successful in assisting their children in achieving their developmental goals during the teen years. However, there are a few warning signs that things aren’t going well that should be addressed and identified early so that outside assistance can be sought. At this age, adolescents and young adults begin to think and feel differently. They are perplexed by their situation, which places them in a strange middle ground between being children and fully grown adults. They are feeling lonely and uneasy. Unfortunately, some people may assume that suicide is a permanent solution to problems that may be discussed and treated with the correct advice. Adolescents might pay a significant price for self-doubt, disorientation, and demands to succeed or conform. They are linked to feelings of befuddlement, grief, rage, concentration and hyperactivity issues, stress, self-doubt, pressure to succeed, financial insecurity, disappointment, and loss. There are a number of warning signs or symptoms that reflect the seriousness of the situation:
Helplessness is expressed in a variety of ways. • Loss of faith and hopelessness • Shame or remorse that is unbearably strong. • Significant shift in one’s personality or physical appearance • Behaviour that is unreasonable or strange. • Eating habits had shifted • Sleeping patterns that are irregular. • A drop in grades or productivity at work. • Loss of interest in formerly significant matters • Suicide is discussed through writing, speech, and humour. • Drinking and drug abuse are on the rise. • Separating oneself from friends, family, and society.
There are numerous causes that can devote or build-up to the final result of suicide:
• Impulses that are out of control. • There has been a history of suicide attempts in the family. • There was already a suicide plan in place. • Harsh or obnoxious behaviour • Domestic violence is an example of exposure to violence. • Access to firearms, such as a firearm at home • Bullying. • Acute rejection or loss. • There have been changes in their families. • Workplace anxiety • Abuse, whether physical or sexual
Mental health disorders that can lead to suicides are:
• Depression. • Bipolar Disorder. • Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. • Schizophrenia. • Borderline personality disorder. • Substance abuse. • Mental illness and the LGBTQ community
Conclusion While we are occupied with our work, a suicide is taking place. These individuals require assistance, love, inspiration, and understanding. WE have the capacity to stop the threat and create an environment where people who are at risk of suicide can speak honestly, express their thoughts, and discuss their issues. They just need someone to reassure them that everything will be fine. Simply do your bit, listen to them, and assist them in avoiding terrible measures such as suicide. Life is a gift, and we may enjoy it to the fullest while also helping to save the lives of those who do not have the same opportunity. Problems aren’t the end of the world; they can be solved and dealt with, and ending your life isn’t the answer. It is not a viable solution to burn our life book. Ask for support and speak up about your concerns because we weren’t born to be quitters. If you live a life that uplifts you, you will one day look back and be proud of how far you have gone.
We live in a technologically advanced society where technology is always evolving. Smart phones have supplanted cell phones, LEDs and LCDs have supplanted televisions, and laptops and tablets have supplanted desktop PCs. When a new model of a product is released, the prior one rapidly becomes obsolete, and obsolete things are frequently dumped as waste. These electrical items have reached the end of their useful life and are unwanted, broken, or obsolete. Those who have reached the end of this are referred to as e-waste, which includes electrical devices such as computers, cellphones, televisions, washing machines, refrigerators, and so on.
Millions of tonnes of e-waste are produced each year in developed countries; worse, e-waste from illicit countries like Japan, Malaysia, Ghana, Nigeria, Pakistan, and India, as well as developed countries like the US and Japan, should be dumped in underdeveloped countries. That was how it used to be. The cost of processing e-waste in wealthy countries is high. This is owing to the low cost of shipbuilding, which stimulates the export of rubbish to developing countries.
In undeveloped countries, where waste is buried, consuming and ill-equipped recycling facilities, local residents, industrial owners, and labourers are allowed to harvest valuable commodities from this garbage according to their needs. To leave the others behind, the majority of them acquire vital knowledge. To recover important components, acid baths and electrical burns are used. These practices, in turn, produce serious health problems and may injure those who engage in them. Circuit boards, electric parts, mono boards, and cables are likely to include hazardous metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic, copper, cadmium, nickel, zinc, gold, silver, and beryllium.
These metals have been linked to the release of hazardous chemicals into the environment via soil, causing health issues in both animals and humans. Chemicals can most likely be produced on land, resulting in both land and water pollution.
Polychlorinated biphenyl and polybrominated defanel ether, two important components of e-waste, have a dangerous side effect. They are the leading causes of ozone depletion. These poisons are also stored in food chains and food traps, posing a serious threat to all species on the planet.
Indeed, e-expanding waste’s environmental imprint is a matter of concern. The growing amount of e-waste must be managed by both consumers and producers. Reusable components are found in the majority of electronic materials.
This reusable component contains metals such as copper, aluminium, lead, and iron. A unique eco-friendly procedure should be developed to properly extract this chemical from garbage items. Both manufacturers and licenced recyclers must promote recycling models. Producers can enter the recycling chain by providing a collecting service and, compared to the unorganised sector, can raise their buyback offer. Consumers have a natural predisposition to see trash as having economic worth, which is where financial incentives to engage in the formal recycling system can be supplied. They should be persuaded to get rid of all of their technological equipment. Many businesses, including as Dell, Apple, and HP, have started recycling programmes. When it comes to trash disposal, the 3R approach, which includes reuse and recycling, can be extremely beneficial.
E-Parisissa is a remarkable initiative for e-waste treatment in India. Every year, Bangalore generates 8000 tonnes of computer waste, which is then sold to scrap merchants. E-Parisia, India’s first e-waste recycling facility, is located on the outskirts of the city and is environmentally friendly. Its mission is to reduce pollution and landfill trash via environmentally friendly recycling of valuable metals, plastic, and glass.
Students and teachers can communicate with each other through virtual or online learning using numerous channels such as email, online chat, and video conferencing. There is just one way for students to communicate with one another in a classroom. Many pupils have a visual memory and appear to study more eagerly, as well as being engaged in online learning. Due to the closure of schools and institutions, virtual learning has become popular. To some extent, it is advantageous because it eliminates the need to wake up early, there is no worry of being reprimanded, and one may study in a relaxed environment. However, the greatest way to create a teacher-student bond is in the classroom. An online engagement cannot replicate the conversation and questions that a student asks the lecturer in class. In an emergency, virtual learning can be a suitable substitute for classroom learning, but it cannot replace the classroom. Classroom learning is still the preferred method of imparting education and knowledge because it allows for the teaching of discipline. Virtual classrooms and reality Because it is not completely’ real,’ the virtual classroom cannot replace the traditional classroom. Teaching on the Internet is like teaching in a virtual world, but it isn’t the same as teaching in the actual world. Is this to say that any education provided or obtained on the Internet isn’t genuine? There is no way. The professors are trustworthy. These are genuine students. The substance is authentic. Virtual teaching, on the other hand, cannot replace classroom teaching because the atmosphere isn’t real.
Interaction between the teacher and the students Teachers are not taught to just provide their students data and figures and then leave for the day. A teacher’s abilities extend beyond the topic to include the capacity to lead students, filter through material when it isn’t well received by a class, change up material as needed, and even handle random queries that may necessitate more exploration of a thought. Teachers are expected to lead in a real-life classroom setting, where face-to-face interactions with students set the tone for the day’s instructional planning and execution. Interaction between students and teachers The course instructor or moderator in a virtual classroom is someone who merely watches the activities of an online classroom to verify that students log in and finish assignments on time. Assignments are assessed, and feedback is provided by e-mails, texts, and video chats on occasion. There are no one-on-one sessions with the teacher, no subject discussions, and no contacts with the teacher.
Interaction between students Students can influence the course of a day’s lesson, as any instructor who has taught in a real-life classroom situation understands. A student may ask a question about the subject matter that necessitates pausing for a time to investigate a completely different topic. Students can benefit from one other in the same way. For example, suppose the teacher poses a question, and a student’s response prompts another student to respond with an additional answer or question. The teacher has soon steered the students’ ideas and questions into a deeper study of the subject matter, assisting them in gaining more insight; however, this is unlikely to happen in the virtual classroom.
Classrooms are created by their surroundings. The only way for teachers to acquire the entire training and teaching they need to be the greatest at what they do is in a genuine classroom setting with students and teachers engaging with one another. Whether a virtual or classroom teacher is desired, the foundation for this vocation will always be laid in a genuine classroom setting. Leading, guiding, instructing, connecting, and growing as a teacher are all skills that must be learned. Because the classroom is created by the environment, virtual teaching will never completely replace traditional classroom instruction.
National Doctors Day is celebrated nationwide, every year, on the 1st of July. But why? This is to express our gratitude towards doctors and physicians for their service towards our well-being. Legendary physician and the second Chief Minister of West Bengal, Dr Bidhan Chandra Roy was born on the 1st of July in Patna, Bihar in 1882 and coincidentally died on the very same date in the year 1962. In 1961, Dr Roy was conferred with the nation’s highest civilian award, Bharat Ratna. Doctors day in India was established in 1991 in honour of his birth and death anniversary.
Well, Doctors day is celebrated every year on the 1st of July but this year another day was observed, by the doctors of IMA (Indian Medical Association) on 18th of June, NATIONAL PROTEST DAY. Doctors came together against the assaults on doctors in COVID wards. IMA observed nationwide protests demanding central law to protect doctors against violence.
Doctors and healthcare workers held placards and raised slogans like doctors bachao desh bachao (save doctors, save nation) and save the saviour. Doctors and medical staff at the IMA office in Hyderabad protested wearing black badges. Doctors from AIIMS Delhi and IMA unit, Ludhiana also took part in the agitations. Various state-level protests were taking place for a long time.
Why are these protests taking place?
Let me brief you here
Bhopal: A local politician was seen screaming at a Bhopal doctor who couldn’t save the life of a patient who was bought to the hospital at an oxygen level of 30. This left the doctor in tears and he was demoralised to the extent that he wanted to resign.
Guwahati: A doctor at a coronavirus facility in Assam was punched, kicked, and pounded with metal trash cans and bricks, by the relatives of a Covid patient who had died, allegedly due to oxygen shortage. Locals also assaulted the doctor who was then hospitalised.
Kerala: A police official allegedly attacked a doctor in the Alappuzha district. The official is accused of slapping Dr Rahul Mathew, who was working the night shift at the Mavelikkara district hospital, after the former’s mother, a COVID-19 patient, was brought dead to the hospitals. Doctors protest for the non-arrest.
And many more such cases went viral on social media. Assaults on doctors might not make it to the news daily, but take place every day.
What exactly did they do to get such treatment?
Grinded in high school, cracked NEET, spent 7-8 years working hard and studying in college, paid a hefty amount of fees to medical colleges or even took loans for their studies.
Who does that? Their fault, right?

During COVID lockdown when most of us were busy making dalgona coffee and baking cakes, they were out there in scorching heat, wearing PPE kits dealing with patients. Burning the candle at both ends, forgetting they have a life of their own, forgetting they have a family waiting for them, isolating themselves from their own family members, in their own houses to protect their families from contracting the virus, more than 500 doctors died during COVID, trying to save our lives. But why, just to save us. Imagine how demoralising it is for them to get beaten up by the ones they’re working for.
What is the probable reason?
Lack of infrastructure
Manpower
Laws in place
Security arrangements
Lack of infrastructure
The shortfall of ICUs, no beds for patients, dearth of oxygen support, the inadequacy of medicines, caretakers bound to wait in long queues for medicines at dispensaries, patients gasping outside hospitals, black marketing of almost everything required for a person to recover, our health infrastructure was crippling.

Manpower
Along with the tools used to help fight COVID, there is a paucity of our warriors too. There should be at least one doctor per 1000 patients according to WHO, whereas in India there is one doctor who attends more than 1445 patients. Not just doctors, the suggested number of nurses per 1000 patients is at least 3, there are just 1.7 in India (43% less than WHO standards). This leads to overworking of doctors and medical staff ignoring their basic requirements like sleep and a proper diet.
Laws in place
Medicare Service Persons and Medicare Service Institutions (Prevention of Violence and Damage to Property) Act, also known as the Medical protection act is there in at least 19 states, which when breached can lead to an imprisonment of up to 3 years and a fine of INR 50,000. Damage to any medical devices and equipment is a punishable offence and offenders are liable to pay twice the amount of the damaged equipment’s cost.
The Act, however, fails to really protect doctors because it features neither in the Indian Penal Code (IPC) nor in the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC). This makes it difficult for victims to approach the police for help or the latter to file a complaint against suspects.
Security arrangements
Doctors are not politicians with scores of gunmen and bouncers around them, who will assure their safety? Due to lack of security at hospitals and clinics, doctors and other staff are the soft targets for unhappy relatives and agitated patients.
Stepping into doctor’s shoes
Imagine yourself as a teacher who fears being beaten up to death by parents for their child’s poor performance at a test, will you even be willing to teach anymore with the same zest. I don’t think so. Hospitals are understaffed, doctors are overworked, patients are overwhelmed.
But this isn’t the fault of our doctors. They are going an extra mile in order to save as many patients as they can, making 3 patients share a bed or switching oxygen support among patients, they have our best interest at heart.
Doctors are not supposed to be accountable for the paralyzed infrastructure, that is where the leaders we vote for come into play. They’re made to work for 15+ hours at a stretch that too in a harsh environment, in a place they no longer feel safe or comfortable in.
What do doctors want?
All they want is for the government to sit with them and consider their problems.
For a law to protect their lives so that they can continue with their duties towards the nation. The implementation of existing laws.
They don’t demand banging of thalis from our balconies or something like that in order to pay our respect, they didn’t ask for showering of flowers upon them for their service, all they’re asking for is to be able to practice in a safe environment where they’re worried for patients’ life, not scared of getting beaten up by sticks.

We were always raised to believe doctors are God on land. Saving our life, giving us a new one at times, while risking their own. What they now want is not godly, but at least a humanly manner.
How can we help?
First and foremost, don’t be someone they need protection from. i.e. don’t be an assaulter.
Secondly, don’t ignore if you see someone being unfair toward them. Raise your voice, report if you see something like this.
A simple realisation that we can trust our doctors can do wonders.
Lastly, don’t forget they’re humans too. Thank them, pay your respect, or at least, just don’t be a jerk.
This Doctors day, I bet Dr Bidhan Chandra wouldn’t be proud of our country treating its doctors and medical staff like this.
Let’s all come together and promise that we’ll make the world a better place to live for our selfless human beings. We owe them.
Ending here with a salute to any doctor or an aspiring doctor reading this, and a sincere tribute to the warriors that lost their lives.
The presence of the doctor is the beginning of the core.Doctor’s day is celebrated on 1st july .It is an occasion to marked to pay tribute to the doctor and their contribution in the society .In india,it is celebrated in honour Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy’s birth and death anniversary .
