HOW TO DELIVER ORAL REPORT AND BUSINESS SPEECHES?

DELIVERING ORAL REPORT AND BUSINESS SPEECHES


MASTERING FORMAL SPEAKING

Oral communication becomes one of the most important skills in the corporate world. Even there is a much more demand for our writing skills where we write in blogs, E-mails, other special networking opportunities demand us even more where communication becomes basic there. According to some estimates, Speakers address audience an astonishing 33 million times each day, and business people give a presentation of about an average of 26 presentations a year.


REPORTING ORALLY

Oral Reports often have audience too, they may be a progress report to the clients or the informational reports to the community or Government groups. In this broadest sense, an oral report is any objective presentation of facts and their interpretation using the spoken word. Finding what audience expect from us is the important part – To speak without interruption for a certain amount of time and delivering useful and timely information as they spend their time to get a better information. So, winning them need a perfect delivery of communication.


ANYWHERE ANYTIME

THE FIVE CANONS OF ORAL COMMUNICATION

INVENTION

It refers to the process of generating ideas and content for the good situation. Before one is going to deliver a specch, he/she needs to collect iformation through varied sources. Gaining new information through research, ideas through brainstorming, analysing and synthesizing the applicable one are the important parts of invention. This requires creative and critical thinking skils where one needs to be clear to give a logical and comprehensive process.


ARRANGEMENT

It defines that any Knowledge is a Knowledge where it is structurally defined. The speech should not be in arguments alone but also the delivery of facts should be properly arranged so that the audeine can think of the particular value. The important divisions include The introduction, The partition, The narration, The confirmation , The refutation and finallly with the conclusion.


STYLE

The most difficult thing is how to attract the audience and make them consider our proposal when they have equally compelling reasons from our competitors. Our Language and sentence structure shouold be unique and out of style also formal with the absolute one. 


MEMORY

Today, when the power point presentations  have become a norm and a helping presuaders present their pitches easily and comprehensively to their target audience across the world, this is significant which is memory and cannot be undermined. Making mind maps always helps one to define the exact things what he/she is willing to say.


DELIVERY

Delivery refers to the form of speech. This content has to be presented in a good form and here the delivery skills such as body language, facial expressions, hand gestures, Eye contact, space management, voice modulation, clarity of expresssion and things should be made clear. We all know these cannot be ignored, but can be gained if we practise it regularly.


“SPEAK SO THAT I MAY KNOW”

World Humanitarian Day

 The 19th of August is marked as the World Humanitarian Day by the UN General Assembly. On this day, in 2003, a bomb attack in Iraq killed 22 Humanitarian aid workers. Each year, a theme of global concern is chosen for the Humanitarian Day. This international day aims to spread awareness around the issues important for survival, well-being, and dignity for the group of people affected by any sort of crisis. 

Theme for the Humanitarian Day

In 2020, the theme was about the Covid aid workers. Its objective was to show gratitude and respect for their tireless efforts in rendering service day and night. Theme for this year is “The Human Race”, with special focus on climate change. It highlights the human cost of climate change and aims to pressure world leaders to make meaningful decisions to help the most affected people. 

Its aim is to draw attention to the millions of people who are vulnerable to climate change, and have already lost lives, livelihood and home, due to the extreme climatic changes. UN plans to shed some light on these issues by using the #theHumanRace on social media and other platforms. “Climate Change emergency is a race we are losing, but it is a race we can win.” said the UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres. 

 

Global Humanitarian Overview

Global Humanitarian Overview is an evidence based assessment of the humanitarian needs such as eradication of hunger, diseases, gender-based violence, etc. In the overview of 2020, Gender-Based violence and its response was a major priority. Particularly due to the pandemic’s impact in deepening the existing inequalities and vulnerabilities. 

According to the overview, nearly 235 million people will need protection and humanitarian assistance in 2021. The need for assistance has gone up from 1 in 45 people in 2020, to 1 in 33 people in 2021. According to the assessment, most people in need of assistance in 2021, are present in Afghanistan. The international organizations have planned to help 160 million people affected by hunger, conflict and climate related issues. 

To overcome the main issues around poverty and hunger require humanitarian assistance and aid. According to Nelson Mandela, a well known humanitarian leader, “Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice. Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings. Sometimes it falls on a generation to be great. You can be that great generation. Let your greatness blossom.”

It is important to join hands and make a positive change for the betterment of humankind. Humanitarian activists and leaders, along with the common people can work together and eradicate all the ills faced by humanity. 


Story of the man of great Valor : Maharana Pratap

All of us are familiar with the name of great Marwari king Maharana Pratap. He was born on 9, May, 1540. Son of Rana Uday Singh and Maharani Jaywanti Bai, Maharana was born in Kumbalgarh Fort. 

Maharana Pratap Singh was the king of Shishodia dynasty in Udaipur, Mewar. His name is immortal in history for valor and determination. He fought with the Mughal Emperor Akbar for many years. Maharana Pratap Singh defeated the Mughals several times in battle as well. They have Born In rajsthan Kumbalgadh in home father maharana Udhay Singh and mother Jivat kanwar. In the Battle of Haldighati of 1576, Rana Pratap, along with 20,000 Rajputs, faced the Mughal chieftain Raja Mansingh’s army of 80,000.

Jhala Mansingh saved Maharana Pratap, who was surrounded by the enemy army, by giving his life and asked Maharana to leave the battlefield. Shakti Singh saved Maharana by giving his body. Dear Horse Chetak also died. This war lasted only one day but 17,000 people died in it. Akbar made all efforts to conquer Mewar. The condition of Maharana worried day by day. Bhama Shah also became immortal by giving 25,000 Rajputs a grant that lasted for 12 years. 
Early Life : 
Maharana Pratap was born in Kumbhalgarh fort. Maharana Pratap’s mother’s name was Jawantabai, who was the daughter of Sonagara Akhairaj of Pali. Maharana Pratap was called as Kika in his childhood. The coronation of Maharana Pratap took place in Gogunda. Since childhood, Maharana Pratap was courageous, brave, self-respecting and freedom-loving. As soon as he ascended the throne of Mewar in 1572, he had to face unprecedented difficulties, but with patience and courage he faced every adversity. 
He fought a fierce battle in Haldi Ghati with the mighty army of the Mughals. The valor he showed there is unique in Indian history, he protected the honor and dignity of his ancestors and vowed that he would not enjoy the state’s happiness until his kingdom was liberated. Since then he started sleeping on the ground, he wandered in the forests of Aravalli, suffering suffering, but he did not accept the subordination of the Mughal emperor. He dedicated his life to protect his motherland.
Maharana Pratap was given training to wield shield sword in his childhood because his father wanted him to be a skilled warrior like himself. The boy Pratap had shown his indomitable courage at an early age. When he went out to play with the children, he used to form a team in the matter. Along with all the children of the team, he also used to practice the shield sword, due to which he became proficient in wielding weapons. Time passed slowly. Days turned into months and months into years. Meanwhile, Pratap became proficient in running the weapon and seeing his confidence, Udai Singh Phule could not stop.
Maharana Pratap decided to make his half-brother Jagmal the king according to his father’s last wish, but the confidant Chundawat Rajputs of Mewar, considering Jagmal’s sitting on the throne as disastrous, forced Jagmal to leave the throne. Jagmal was not willing to give up the throne but he went to Ajmer to take revenge and joined Akbar’s army and in return he got the jagir of Jahazpur.
During this, Prince Pratap got the title of Maharana along with the 54th ruler of Mewar. During the time of Maharana Pratap, Akbar was ruling Delhi and Akbar’s policy was to use the power of Hindu kings to take control of other Hindu kings. In 1567, when Prince Pratap was made the successor, he was only 27 years old and the Mughal forces surrounded Chittor from all sides.
The ideal of valor presented by Maharana Pratap is unique. The circumstances in which he fought were really complicated, but he did not give up. If Rajputs could get a respectable place in Indian history, then the credit goes mainly to Rana Pratap. He neither allowed his motherland to be subjugated nor tarnished. He forced the huge Mughal armies to chew iron gram. The Mughal emperor Akbar wanted to conquer his kingdom and merge it into his empire, but Rana Pratap did not allow this to happen and struggled for life.
Apart from Maharani Jaiwanti Bai, Rana Udai Singh had other wives, in which Rani Dhir Bai was the beloved wife of Udai Singh. Rani Dhir Bai’s intention was that her son Jagmal should become the successor of Rana Udai Singh. Apart from this, Rana Udai Singh also had two sons Shakti Singh and Sagar Singh. In this too there was an intention to take over the throne after Rana Udai Singh, but both the people and Rana ji considered Pratap as the successor. That is why these three brothers hated Pratap.

Maharana Pratap’s height was seven and a half feet and his weight was 110 kg. The weight of his protective shield was 72 kg and the weight of the spear was 80 kg. Combining armor, spear, shield and sword etc., they used to fight in battle carrying a weight of more than 200 kilograms. Even today Maharana Pratap’s armor, sword etc. are kept safe in the museum of Udaipur royal family.
Battle of Haldighati : 

The Battle of Haldighati is a major episode in the history of India. This war took place on 18 June 1576 for about 4 hours, in which there was a fierce battle between Mewar and the Mughals. The army of Maharana Pratap was led by the only Muslim Sardar Hakim Khan Suri and the Mughal army was led by Mansingh and Asaf Khan. In this war, a total of 20,000 Maharan Pratap’s Rajputs had to face with Akbar’s total 80000 Mughal army, which is a unique thing.
Even after facing many difficulties/crises, Maharan Pratap did not give up and showed his might, that is why today his name is shining on the pages of history. Some historians believe that there was no victory in the battle of Haldighati, but if we see, only Maharana Pratap has won. Not considering his small army as small, with his hard work and determination, Maharana Pratap’s army freed the sixes of Akbar’s huge army and forced them to retreat.
Beloved horse, Chetak :

Along with the valor of Maharana Pratap, the valor of his horse Chetak is also world famous. Chetak was a very intelligent and brave horse, who had saved Maharana Pratap by jumping from a 26 feet deep river by putting his life at stake. There is a temple of Chetak in Haldighati even today.
Many families of Rajasthan had succumbed to Akbar’s power, but Maharana Pratap struggled to maintain his dynasty and did not surrender before Akbar. Wandering from forest to forest, in the grass-roots and grass-tree rotis. He never lost patience even after living with his wife and child in dire circumstances. Danveer Bhamashah dedicated his entire treasury to revive the falling morale of the army due to lack of money. Nevertheless, Maharana Pratap said that apart from military needs, I do not want a single penny of your treasure. According to Akbar: – Maharana Pratap had limited resources, but still he did not bow down, was not afraid.
The time of Maharana Pratap after the battle of Haldighati was spent in the hills and forests. He defeated Akbar many times through his mountain warfare policy. Although Maharana Pratap had to face many kinds of troubles while living in the forests and hills, but he did not give up his ideals. The strong intentions of Maharana Pratap thwarted all the efforts of Akbar’s generals. It was the effect of his patience and courage that despite continuous efforts of 30 years, Akbar could not make Maharana Pratap a prisoner. Maharana Pratap’s favorite horse was Chetak, who supported his master till his last breath. 
Demise of great warrior :

Maharana neither surrendered Akbar nor he lost any of the fight fought between them. But the day, when he went for hunting and ended up fighting with a tiger and accidently the tiger clawed him and the wound later was infected and resulted Maharana to end up in his deathbed. 
We get to  know that Akbar was also a big heart King, the time when he heard the sad news of demise of his arch rival Pratap he couldn’t stop his tears falling from his eyes and wrote a letter of condolence to Maharana’s family.

MEDITATION – A GUIDE TO START

 

MEDITATION – GUIDE TO START

WHAT IS MEDITATION? THE REAL ACTION:

We are all reactors to nature i.e. Whenever we hear a sound or noise, we tend to hear it, see what it is, at first case we feel it. You may think what is the relation between the above and meditation. The intense ability to control us by imitating ourselves. When you see a gorgeous beautiful thing, our eyes seek attention to it and makes us to go glare at it, but it is dangerous behind; which eyes doesn’t realize. Mind instructs not to see, eyes obey, that is when control occurs.


ATTAINING WAYS:

There are a ‘n’ number of ways to do meditation based on one’s nature. But the common attribute is to hold the heart. The Heart is like a lake, each stone thrown on it raises waves and these waves doesn’t allow us realize the true nature of us. The Moon’s light falls on the river, as the river is with waves, we couldn’t see the reflection clearly. Likewise, many things affect us externally for a stationary time; escaping from the trap make us find who we are and understand what we are.

WHERE TO DO MEDITATION?

“Arrange a separate, isolated room if possible. Sleeping, eating and entering the room without bathing should be totally avoided; keep it orthodox” says Swami Vivekananda. But in an era as such, it goes hardly possible. As there is a will, there is a path; take any place which is distraction free especially from the digital world. Make sure that while starting meditation, anger, worry or any other emotion should be avoided. Mind and heart should be neutral.

THE FIRST THING TO DO:

First, leave heart to wander around in its own direction. Slowly monitor them, keenly observe as its the prior idea to start it. Without knowing what your soul is doing, controlling it is impossible. There may be vivid, evil thoughts too, which to encounter may be shocked in the beginning. As you continue with the process, you can feel its reducing potency. Things get into your control and you become only yours.The Mind gets unaffected by extrinsic factors. First believe that your body is rigid and with it you can realize all that is possible in the world.


FOOD AND MALNUTRITION

 

FOOD AND MALNUTRITION

FOOD SECURITY

Food is defined as a substance that we people eat, drink to live and maintain life and growth. Food security would denote a person’s ability to eat enough, stay active and lead a healthy life.

Food security exists when all people at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food which meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active life. This concept is now-a-days used in few decades. Initially it referred to as overall supply of for a global, regional or national context.

The basic components of food and nutrition is the availability of food, accessibility and absorption. Availability of food in desired quantities which might change stocks and imports. Capabilities and opportunities in turn are related mainly to one’s access to his/her own assets and education. Absorption of food is the ability of biologically utilization.

NUTRITION AND HEALTH STATUS




India has largest number of malnourished children in the world and half of the stunned children. However, records reveals that the stunning prevalence has been declined since 2020 and nearly 45 million suffered from wasting. The malnutrition measures are used to track the world to move along in its sustainable development goals. However the crises remains same or increased when it comes with percentage. India losing up to nearly 4% of GDP and 9% of productivity is also a combined failure.

MALNUTRITION

The COVID 19 has however caused the biggest increase in the world by hunger and malnutrition. For Indian children older than fiver years of age this is the first time that the national values are published. The National Family Health survey says that nearly 29% of the Indian children suffer from malnutrition. Besides COVID Malnutrition is till running around many. Hunger is most crucial pain in the world. When we let to see children with such pain, we will try to give what we have.

COVID'S IMPACT ON ECONOMY

 

IMPACT OF COVID-19 IN INDIAN ECONOMY

COVID’s IMPACT

The outbreak of COVID-19 became a challenge for the Indian economy due to the potential drop in GDP. However, the second wave was much more severe when compared to the first which made a downside risk to the economic activity due to National level lockdown.  Several segments like manufacturing, small scale, Information technology, small unions are lost in the pandemic. The supply chain management with the global economy along with the procurement was drastically affected.

The immensity of the impact is directly proportional to the health crisis and duration of the lockdown. In this the analysis had been done on the affected segments and the Government concentrations of lockdown to increase the capital expenditure and to implement the structured reforms as well.

CHANGES

There are several sectors which are impacted by the COVID-19 and the chances of their revival are not in the near future. Their profitability is continuously decreasing and fixed cost is intact. Like media and entertainment industry; all multiplexes are closed and people do not want to visit the multiplexes in the near future. Many organizations have taken loans from commercial banks and other financial institutions. They have to pay interest on the loan despite of poor financial position.

Increase in the income provisions for the supportive measures of the rural and urban population The productive way is to increase recovery rate by emergency approval of the foreign vaccines when the demand for the vaccines increases in India. The Government and the RBI need to keep interest rate low despite borrowing on policy basis. The Success of the borrowing program depends on RBI support, by providing indirect liquidity which is really big as this is pandemic. However, liquidity expansions have their own limits.

FORECOMING CHALLENGES

The sectors like construction, trade and transport, hotel, mining, quarrying sectors and some other services are having a strong base effect on the challenging recovery part. These kind of hard situation are monitored clearly and the demand for those kind of sectors are faltering due to the crisis which would become more aggressive and would be the most unavoidable once for the upcoming years. The country’s long term goal is affected badly and the performance needed to withhold by hard efforts for the further improved output.

THE YOUTH OPPORTUNITY

 

THE YOUTH OPPORTUNITY

BETWEEN THE NECESSITY THERE LIES THE OPPORTUNITY

India is a country where we have nearly 28% of the youth population in contrast to 37 in China and 45 in Western Europe. This says about the enormous growth opportunity that India will have as the highest number of people in the workforce. In some other words, we could say that the India’s non working population would be out numbered by the working population leading to the demographic dividend which is to be in favor.

Climatic effects

The increased use of non-degradable plastics, bio-medical waste have created climatic deterioration. The pandemic had paved the way for the increased use of plastics and also we have no other go to end up without being safe. This effects leads to the increased landfilling which would cost fisheries, tourism and maritime transport and service industries with an additional billion dollars according to the report given by the UN Environmental Program.

The changes

Though the population of youth in India with the high level of unemployment is high, still there is chance of silver line beyond it. By concentrating on the demographic dividend, this leads to the increase in labour force, which in turn leads to the productive outcome. This accelerates the industrial growth. As the purchasing power of the population is high, there is no doubt in the increased domestic growth and increasing opportunities. By analyzing all these factors into the current situation, India will become the third largest country by 2030.

The younger the people the more conscious they are. They are much more of the climatic changes and impact of the land population which affects the sustainability of their growth. The natural disasters and less number of natural resources are even known to the children as it affects climate badly. The UN report also tells us that nearly half a million of the youth generation are taking action against the polluted lands through small initiatives they can make around their schools, colleges, surroundings and other communities.

The future

Sustainable future, socio-economic progress with the flourishing economies need a gradual vibrant to be empowered for the best future of the great version. India’s youth are interested in the green job as they have a great belief that healing the environment is the sustainable way to move forward. India is often in the forefront of bringing the change but there are issues like inequality which still goes in the Environment. Although the UN government has set up various employment programmes, the dominance of the informal economy still makes it difficult to reap profits.

The rising youth young population provides India with a great opportunity for growth. The labour intensive sectors needed to more skillful for the better job creation. Ensuring the components of the life skills along with the technical skills makes one to get the better satisfaction in the life.

ADVENT OF FAST-FOOD CHAIN IN INDIAN MARKET

                                                                   (Photo: TripAdvisor)

 

We all are very much familiar with the fast-food
chains. With the revolution in food, the world has become so fast-moving that
it’s very difficult to keep a track. With the demand for fast-food came the entry
of fast-food joints. It has garnered the market to a wide level.

Increasing demand for fast food

Is there anyone who doesn’t like fast-food? It has
become so inevitable and specially among children.  The children specially like burger and pizza
more than dal or roti. Demand for McDonald’s, Subway, KFC has increased rapidly
over the years. Who knew that they will capture the market at such a level?

Why they are so much in demand?

·      
If we see from the customer’s view,
we can say that it’s highly desirable.

·      
The prices are also low as compared
to dine in restaurants.

·      
It is spread across many locations.

·      
The taste is also good and it’s very
convenient.

The fast-food has become very………Fast

If a fast-food restaurant wants to remain in business,
then it has to be very fast. This pace has been very well maintained by the
fast-food chains of Indian market. Many people after work grab their fast-food
while going back to home.
It’s everywhere and that’s why it is very convenient to order.

Smarter
than You Think

Fast-food
chains adopt various approaches to target customers. They mainly target
children as fast-food is more popular among children. For example, the use of
characters such as Ronald McDonald  is a
tactic to emotionally bond with the children. They also organize birthday
parties and offer happy meal. They keep kids hooked up on happy meals. This is
what is called as “SMART PLAY”.

Environmental and Wildlife Crime

                                                          (Photo: Wildlife Conservation Trust)

Environmental and Wildlife crime is an illegal act which directly harms the environment.

There was a time when people were dependent on the environment and its resources for their existence. As if like they can’t live without it. But with time the situation changed. People started misusing the environment and wildlife for their own greedy purposes which led to a massive destruction of our environment, wildlife and especially our ‘Mother Earth’. As our country is developing, people are becoming greedy and selfish day by day. They have started mismanaging the resources that are actually meant to be used for useful purposes ,and due to this nowadays we are facing many harmful disasters like Tsunami, Earthquake, Flood, Poverty, Economic downfall all over the world. Not only these there are many other problems too.

Coming to the Wildlife, many animals are forcefully placed at zoo in a cage confining their lives within the walls of the zoo. We all know about Deforestation ,that is, “Cutting down the trees and plants”. Thousands of plants and trees are cut down everyday but we never think about the animals like how they will survive as forests are their only home to live in. Many animals are killed leading to the decreasing number of animals in the world. They are left abandoned or some people sell them just to mint money or use their skin to make leather and for many other purposes.

It is a true fact that human activities have a worse impact on nature and wildlife. “The term Environmental and Wildlife crime” should be categorized as crime in the present time. Many factors that influence these crimes are Socio-political and the weak judiciary. As we are all aware that there is no strict implementation of laws in many countries like, India. There are many organizations who works to highlight the issues and work on to prevent but there is no strict implementation not even the judiciary .And people do take benefits from this, and they continue to do these illegal crimes endangering our environment and wildlife. Coming to another factor ,that is, Economy. To increase the economy of the country, many people go after trading of the animals ,selling them at highest price just to mint money. Or even killing it before selling because we know that how expensive animals organs could be and how even just the skin of animals can be used for manufacturing purposes or say for preparing chemicals or weapons. Another factor is supply and demand. As our society is progressing, the demand is also increasing and so as the supply. This also increases an illegal employment opportunity for the people interested and thus, increasing their income.

Environmental and Wildlife crimes have caused a great threat to our environment and stood up with many challenges. Both the crimes have previously not been given importance in most of the countries thus, resulting in the lack of awareness and facilitating these crimes at a high speed which are actually a threat for various countries.

“The wildlife crimes has resulted in the loss of species and we need to start preventing it rather than waiting for the crimes to take place”. The organization has and is facing many problems such as jurisdiction where there is no strict implementation. All these factors have posed a serious threat not only to the environment but also to the organization.

SUGGESTIONS

·       To prevent the Environmental and Wildlife crime, first we need to create awareness about these among mass population.

·       The government shall become strict regarding the implementation of the norms in order to prevent it.

·       National organizations shall work together to keep a record of all the information related to both the crimes and to keep a steady pace with the change.

·       The government shall implement the principle of sustainable development due to the increase in the demands of the people in order to use the resources judiciously.

·       The countries where these crimes are prevalent must join the hands of the national organizations to work as a team for the speedy disposal of the cases.

·       Create a new organization which will deal with both the crimes to prevent any haphazard .This will decrease the burden on the judiciary court and will ensure the speedy disposal of the cases.

·       Organize campaigns and various other programs to educate people about both the crimes and teach them how these crimes are harmful for the society .

·       Involving the people of the society by asking them their suggestions or ideas to prevent the crimes.’

·       Plant more and more trees around your place ,on the streets to curb the pollution.

·       Stricter implementation of the guidelines under Wildlife protection act and Environmental act must be enforced.

Environment and Wildlife are important part of our lives. Environment and society are dependent on each other and we as the members of the society have a responsibility to protect our environment. Many laws and regulations have been made by various countries to protect our environment and wildlife. The protection of environment and wildlife has become a necessity today. Our judiciary looks after the constitutional provisions and reviews its own decisions but the strict implementation of the laws is not yet enforced. And that’s what needs to be changed. Unless and until there is strong and strict implementation, the main objectives of protecting the environment and wildlife cannot be achieved. Also the punishment for harming the environment should be made more strict and the convicts should be made to pay for their deeds. Each and every individual should be made aware towards the environment and wildlife because the government alone cannot fulfil the goals so the involvement of people at a large scale is really important. So it should be remembered that this environment belongs to everyone and the responsibility of conserving the environment and wildlife belongs to everyone.

“True benevolence or compassion, extends itself through the whole of existence and sympathizes with the distress of every creature capable of sensation”.

Preserving Tribal Culture

 There are about 300 million tribal people globally, and 150 of them are in Asia alone. The tribal and folk art forms have been an integral part of our culture. Tribal artforms have a unique sense of beauty and a different perspective of aesthetics. These are the traditions that are transmitted from generation to generation among the tribes. 

Institutions to preserve tribal culture

In India, the Ministry of Tribal Affairs looks after the preservation of tribal culture. Under the ministry, there are Research Institutes and Tribal Welfare Departments to find out ways and techniques to preserve the tribal heritage in the different parts of the country. 

There are a number of tribal groups in India, such as Mundas, Oraons, Santals, Gonds, Khonds, Mizos, Nagas, etc. There are also some schemes in India, such as Institutional support for development and marketing of Tribal products, Special Central Assistance to Tribal Sub-Scheme, and Marketing of minor forest produce.   

 The UN Human Rights council in 2006, recognized the rights of the indegenous people and emphasized that “indegenous knowledge, culture and traditional practices contributes to sustainable and equitable development and proper management of the environment.”

Need to preserve Tribal Heritage

The tribal culture has an extremely rich heritage, traditions, folk songs, folk dances and other artforms. For example, Warli painting is one of the famous tribal artforms, its origin can be traced back as early as the 10th century A.D. They have a unique set of cultural traditions and social customs.

 But with the rapid growth of industries, and hydroelectric projects, the forests are being cleared. These forests are the home to many tribal people. They get displaced from their original habitat due to clearing of forest areas, which threatens their identity and culture. 

As many of the tribal groups reside in or near forest areas, they play a key role in conserving the forest ecosystem. Forests play a crucial role in their daily lifestyle, therefore they efficiently conserve and manage the ecosystem. Many of the tribes believe in nature worship and revere the sacred groves and trees. They have immense knowledge about the edible plants and medicinal properties of them. 

The world is gradually turning towards organic farming, and other eco-friendly ways of farming. The tribal culture has great knowledge about surviving by solely depending on nature, without the use of any harmful chemicals or technology. Often the tribal culture is suppressed by the dominant culture of a country. The cultures with such deep knowledge should not be suppressed in the wake of development and modernity. 

It is important to strike a middle path, where development can take place without displacing and destroying the tribals and their cultural heritage.


India's Best School – Ratnavati School In Rajasthan

Hello, friends! In terms of historical architecture, I consider Rajasthan to be the most beautiful state of India. Here, you can find forts, palaces and mansions each more grand and beautiful than the last. This state is also rich culturally. The folk dance and folk music here and the Rajasthani cuisine, they’re all unparalleled. As well as the lakes, desert, camel safari. So it’s not surprising that Rajasthan is a very popular tourist destination for foreigners. But behind this facade of beauty, lies a harsh truth. Friends, Rajasthan is the worst state in the country in terms of female literacy. Only 57% of the females in the entire state are literate. They can read and write. Do you know the name of the country we’re living in? Country, as in? Do you know which country we live in? Which country do we live in? 

Rajasthan. Because of female illiteracy, female unemployment is also very high. According to a study, 73% of women in Rajasthan are jobless. Do you teach this to your children? So you teach it to your daughter.  You don’t teach it to your son. Why? Because my daughter will have to do these chores. Many people hide this bitter truth with a veil. And look the other way. But there are some brave people who try to bring about a change. In Rajasthan’s Jaisalmer, one such change was successfully introduced. Come, the Gem of India is not an individual. 

It is a school building. About 40 km from the city of Jaisalmer, there is a popular tourist spot known as Sam Sand Dunes. A few kilometres before this Sam desert, there is a village. This new school is built near this village. What’s special about the school is that not only is it a completely free school, to educate girls from below the poverty line, but the building of this school is also an architecture marvel. Look at this building. Look, at how beautiful it is. It is built in a futuristic-modern style. The building also looks minimalistic. Additionally, the traditional architecture of Rajasthan has also been used in it. To top it all, this is a sustainable building. There are solar panels on the roof of this building. There are no ACs inside. Instead, traditional architecture is used in the building in such a way that the stones used to build it, will keep it cool from the inside. And the design of this building, will help to cool down the interiors. Who built this school? And how? .

There’s a non-profit organisation, CITTA. Its founder is Michael Daube. He had a dream to build a school like this. So really it’s kind of, it didn’t happen like an epiphany, but it did mould like a chess game. It was kind of like realising ‘in the next 20 moves, what’s gonna happen?’ and really kinda mapping out the ripple effects of this. Talking about implementing dreams, the supervisor of this project is Chahat Jain. When our reporter Vijeta Dahiya was on site to film this school, the school hadn’t opened up then. At least, hadn’t completely opened up. Teachers were being recruited. For Class 1 through Class 10th. The plan is, there will be 40 girls in each class, in total, 40 x 10 400 girls would be given free education in this school. Everything will be free. Their transport facility. The transport from their homes to the school and back will be free. Their education. Their books and uniforms will be free. They would also get free lunch at school. About the curriculum of the school, Chahat has experience in handling several such projects. 

So, keeping holistic development in the forefront, he has designed a curriculum for the girls. Things like the local textile, singing, dance forms we included these in the curriculum so that the children can be proud of their heritage and the slowly fizzling out artforms can be protected and revived. It will be a holistic development of the child. It also includes computer skills, third languages that a child should normally know. To fulfill this dream, Michael had local support as well. Like, the support of Chaitanya Raj Singh Bhati who belongs to the erstwhile Royal family of Jaisalmer. And his mother, Mrs Raseshwari Rajya Laxmi was also on the Board of Directors of the CITTA India. Another member of the Board of Directors is Manvendra Singh Shekhawat. He is a hotelier. And a co-founder of the NGO I Love Jaisalmer.

 It was Manvendra who had contributed the land to build this school. While doing so, he had put forth a condition to the architect, that two berry bushes that were there, should not be harmed. They shouldn’t be removed. And the school should be built around them. Now at the centre of the school, those two berry bushes are proudly thriving. The architect used lime for the walls of the school. And the ceiling has been raised quite a bit. And windows at placed near the top. All these things improve air circulation. And the temperature remains cool inside. Not only solar panels are installed on the roof for generating electricity, but there is also a rainwater harvesting system in this building. It is a wholesome package of Sustainability and Eco-friendliness. The architect of this building is Diana Kellogg. And impressively, she didn’t charge anything for designing this building. Same with the costume designer.

 The costume designer that designed the uniforms for the girls, did not charge for this. To design the uniforms, what he did was that he went in and found local textiles like Ajrakh. Then it’s an age-old It’s one of the oldest block printing techniques in the world, and most complex. It’s one thing to design a building. But to actually build it with the design is the biggest challenge. And many local contractors refused to work on it. Because they looked at this complicated design and it was unlike anything they had ever done before so they decided to not do it. After a long search they found one contractor. Karim Khan. He implemented this plan and made it possible in real life. He helped in its building. This place is in the middle of a desert. There’s nothing around. It took us 2 years to build this. We used to work here even at 50°C temperatures. We had to carry food and water with us. One couldn’t find anything for miles here. This was a challenge for us. How could the girls study in those conditions? That’s why we build this school. So Diana and Karim Khan coordinated and local labourers were employed for this project and finally, this building was completed within one year. Once the school was built, Parag Ji takes care of the security of the school. And Raju Ji and Mange Khan see to the cleanliness of the school. From Michael to Raju this is the entire team that is enabling this dream to come true. After the school was ready their team carried out publicity of the school in the nearby villages.

 And the Chief of the nearby village also joined the CITTA team. We conducted a small event on behalf of the school, on behalf of the school’s management on behalf of Mr Shekhawat and the other members of the Board. Distributing ice cream among kids, that was really successful. Then we had another event on Republic Day, Many villagers attended that, adults as well as kids, We had a magic show there. The magic show was a huge success. It was great, all of us enjoyed it. 

How can someone sleep on a cloud? To make this whole project possible the money came through charitable donations. As I said, this is an NGO. You too can donate to it if you want to. They claim that all contributions are used for the education of the girls. The link to donate will be in the description below, in case you’re interested. We’re giving free education to the girls. They’ll get food and a uniform as well. The medium of instruction will be English. Teachers will come from Jaisalmer. The kids will be picked up and dropped off at home. That’s about the school. Now we want that the women in the neighbourhood of our students, like you their mother or their elder sister, we want to do something for them as well. Two more buildings are being built like the school building In it, we will provide training to women. Like what your mother-in-law was working on. 

You will get to learn something new. And we’ll even pay you for learning. Since you’ll work hard to learn. So we intend to support the women and girls around here. The most exciting thing is that, friends, while only one building has been built by now, but in reality, this entire project, called the Gyaan Centre, three buildings will be built in total. The two other buildings are yet to be built. Here, in the computer animation, you can see how the other two buildings will look. In one of the buildings, there will be a Women’s Cooperative.
