[2:29 PM, 6/30/2021] Priyanshi: Stagnation or improvement
We are living in a world where problems and solutions both exist. It’s the human tendency to always look for pleasure and hence nobody chooses the problems which are existing in the world. People always try to look out for a solution but now here the questions arise that whether we want a short-term solution or a long-term solution, whether we believe in stagnation or improvement. Let’s understand the concept by taking an example. If someone asks you that what would you prefer, a world with present humanity, intelligence, and all other things or the world that will be there after 100 years. Whose humanity would you like to prefer? The current one or the one after 100 years. Think the answer to this in your head and now let’s move on. Accepting the current world with whatever it has will come under stagnation and accepting the world that will be there after 100 years will lead to some improvements or we can say that at least there will be chances of improvement. Let’s understand this concept a little more briefly. We are not saying that the world that will be there after 100 years will be perfect but the thing that we need to understand here is that there will be more propensity for us to improve. For example, if we would have stopped 100 years before ,then can you imagine how the world would have looked like now. Let’s imagine, still, there would have been Sati Pratha, no rules would have come against the dowry system, child marriage, still, there would have been no normalising of the LGBTQ community. But why all these things didn’t happen because we believe in moving on and keep changing ourselves, fight for the discrimination and we didn’t believe in stagnation. And now here comes the need to know that why still we want to keep altering because still many issues are existing in the world which we don’t even know about, they need to be resolved. If we accept the world that is right now how will the issues get resolved. In-country like India still normalisation of the LGBTQ community doesn’t exist completely. This work which is in progress needs to keep going so that we can achieve the results that these struggling people deserve. So, we don’t prefer a perfect world but a world where chances of improvement always exist, where chances of self-growth always exist. If your mind ever tries to accept things as they are without looking at the propensity of improvement. Just let your mind remind of these examples and start working on them. Just let your mind be conscious of the after-effects of stagnation because we need to at least try to give a world to our future generation where the issues that exist right now don’t exist at their time. So that our future generation can focus on the improvements that their world will be having. Let’s give a chance to us , let’s give a chance to self- growth and let’s try to make this world a better place for us as well as our future generation.

4. South Park-street Cemetery :-
The Park Street Cemetery was one of the earliest non-church cemeteries in the world, and probably the largest Christian cemetery outside Europe and America in the 19th century. Opened in 1767 on what was previously a marshy area, the cemetery was in use until about 1830 and is now a heritage site, protected by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). The tombs are an admixture of the Gothic with a rich flavour of the Indo-Saracenic style. Of the latter, mention may be made of a unique and composite brick structure built in the ‘panchyatana’ manner, with a central dome flanked by miniature replicas of Orissan ‘rekha deul’ on four sides. Coupled with this peculiarity, the black basalt carvings on the frontal façade indicate a distinct respect for the Hindu faith.

The name Agni(meaning fire) was given after one of the 5 elements in nature(Agni, Vayu, Prithvi, Akash, Jala). Agni missiles are medium to intercontinental-range ballistic missiles, developed under the Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme, INDIA. The family of missiles consists of AGNI I, AGNI II, AGNI III, AGNI IV, AGNI V, AGNI P, AGNI VI. And here is a brief description of each one of them.
India night-tests Agni-I missile
Agni I:
Agni I is an intermediate-range ballistic missile, it is 14.8 m long, with a diameter of 1.3 meters, and weighs 22,000 kgs. With a maximum payload of 1,000 kgs, the missile could extend its range up to 1,200 km of distance. Agni I is used by the SCF of the Indian Army. It is made of all-carbon composite materials to protect the payload during its re-entry stage. It is designed to be launched from Transporter-Erector-Launcher (TEL) vehicles, either by road or rail-mobile through transportation. The development of this missile began in 1999, and was first tested in January 2002 from a TEL vehicle at the Interim Test Range on Wheelers’ Island of India’s eastern coast. This missile has relatively high accuracy, simplicity, and due to its combination of an inertial guidance system with a terminal phase radar correlation targeting system on its warhead.
Agni II missile
Agni II:
Agni II is a medium-range, two-and-half-stage solid propellent ballistic missile, and is 20 m long, with a diameter of 1 m, and weighs around 26,000 kg. With a payload of 820-2,000 kgs, the missile could extend its range from 2,000 to 3,500 km. Agni II was first tested on 11th April 1999 at the Wheelers’ Island of the Odisha coast using IC-4 launch pad, over the range 2,000 to 2,200 km. The Agni II uses a combination of inertial navigation and GPS in its guidance module as well as dual-frequency radar correlation for terminal guidance. The 20-meter-long, two-stage ballistic missile has a strike range of 2,000 km to 3,000 km during the night trail of a nuclear-capable intermediate-range ballistic missile on 16th Nov 2019.
Agni-3 ballistic missile successfully launched by Indias Strategic Forces Command (SFC) from Wheeler Island, off the coast of Odisha on September 21, 2012.
Agni III:
Agni III is an intermediate-range, two-stage solid propellent ballistic missile, it is shorter (17 m and wider and 2 m in diameter) compared to other missiles (Agni I and Agni II), and weighs up to 44,000 kg. With a payload of 2,500 kg, Agni III could extend its range from 2,000 to 3,000 km. It is made using advanced carbon composite materials, while the second-stage booster is made of iron-based steel alloy. Agni-III was first tested on 9th July 2006 from Wheeler Island on the coast of the eastern state of Odisha, by Rail-mobile, possible road-based TEL( Transporter-Erector-Launcher). It was again tested on 12th April 2007 successfully, again from Wheeler Island. The third successive trail-test was fired on 7th May 2008 from Wheelers island, which had a range of 3,500 km,taking a warhead of 1.5 tonnes. It is the most accurate strategic ballistic missile which increases the “kill efficiency” of the weapon. It was reported that with a low payload Agni III and hit a target of over 3,500 km.
Agni IV missile
Agni IV:
Agni IV is an intermediate-range, two-stage nuclear-capable ballistic missile, it is 20 m long, with a diameter of 1 m, and weighs up to 17,000 kg. It was previously called as Agni II prime. Agni IV was first tested on 15th November 2011 and on 19 September 2012 from Wheeler Island(Abdul Kalam Island) off the coast of the eastern state of Orissa. It could reach the target up to the range of 3,500–4,000 km with a payload of 800–1,000 kg. On 20th January 2014, that is during its third test, the missile was lifted off from the launcher and after reaching an altitude of over 800 km, and impacted near the target in the Indian ocean with a remarkable accuracy carrying a payload of 900 kg. Agni IV is equipped with state-of-the-art technologies, that include indigenously developed ring laser gyro and composite rocket motor.
Agni V missile
Agni V:
Agni V is an intercontinental-range, three-stage solid-fuel ballistic missile, it is 17 m long, with a diameter of 2 m, and weighs up to 50,000 kg, developed by the Defense Research and Development Organisation of India. It could reach a target of more than 5,500 km. It was first test-fired on 19th April 2012, from Abdul Kalam Island formerly known as Wheelers Island off the coast of Odisha. It is a canister launch missile system and ensures that it has the requisite operational flexibility and can be swiftly transported and fired from anywhere. The second test launch of Agni-V was completed on 15th September 2013 and the canisterized version was launched in January 2015.
Agni P missile
Agni P:
Agni prime is a medium-range, two-stage solid-fueled ballistic missile, it is half of the weight of Agni III, developed by the Defense Research and Development Organisation, India. Both the first and second stage of the missile was made of composite materials. It could extend its range up to 1,000-2,000 km. As per DRDO, Agni-Prime is a new generation advanced variant of the Agni family, launched on 28th June 2021. “Being a canister-launched missile, Agni-P will give the armed forces the requisite operational flexibility to swiftly transport and fire it from anywhere they want. The test at 10:55 met all mission objectives with a high level of accuracy,” says DRDO. This missile has followed the Textbook trajectory with a great level of accuracy.
Agni VI under development
Agni VI:
Agni VI will be a four-stage intercontinental ballistic missile, currently in the hardware development phase and expected to have a Multiple Independently targetable Reentry Vehicle(MIRV) as well as a Maneuverable Reentry Vehicle(MaRV). It is expected as the latest and most advanced version among the Agni Missiles.
Education is the important part of our life to be an independent person education is the first key to achieve the success. But ever wonder how due to Covid19 so many dreams got destroyed whole world is moving Digital. The villages where government schools were established for the poor children their RIGHT TO EDUCATION how they will continue their education in this present situation. They don’t have smart phones, tablets, PC how they will get the privilege opportunities. We people are lucky to live a life where in the lockdown scenarios also we are able to continue our education. Indeed digital world is strong many lives became easy now due to technology platforms like zooms, google meet playing an important roles for education , students from kindergarten started their education online. It’s affecting the life of the children from the poor family due to lack of opportunities they have to discontinue their education . People from the middle class, poor class families became unemployed lost their jobs due to Covid19, Only one thing they have question now “ how to run their family ?” . Mostly people working from home and earning money chilling Netflix .But in this situation also many people started working hard risking their life , so that their family can eat one time meal and even the children also started working to support their family . Whole world is about privilege opportunities , fighting competitions to achieve dreams so that everyone can live peaceful , searching for perfect life where world rotating with scars, only one dream they started watching the poor parents dreaming their children going to school carrying books and living their dreams but due to the situation they lost the opportunities .
Digital education is fine for privilege families but think about the poor families, don’t you think some steps should be taken immediately for their betterment for the poor kids who also want to set in the digital world , many places in India don’t have electricity , no internet connection then how they will survive in the digital world. Government mid day meal also organized for the poor kids even they lost their one chance. We all ordering food from Zomato and Swiggy living our best life . Think about the small kids they lost their faith to live their dreams and even their health situation is weak to survive in this way . Many people got positive in Covid19 due to their state because they can’t afford the life living in lockdown and lack of medical facilities in their villages. In the city life mostly people treated in hospitals and also in home online appointment and medicines facilities are available too .
This is how digital life background in the environment but for some people they can’t get close to it .
A strait is a naturally formed passage connecting two large water bodies. Canal too connects two large water bodies but are man-made i.e. intentionally constructed for faster connectivity. We can call it a man-made strait. Canals such as the Panama Canal(connecting Pacific and Atlantic) and Suez Canal(connecting Red sea and the Mediterranean) have drastically reduced the time required for inter Continental connectivity and are of massive economic value. Recently when the Suez Canal was blocked it costed dearly in economic terms an estimated loss of $ 54 billion in trade. The enormous dependence on Straits and canals also means it is of tremendous strategic importance to countries, total control over one of the busiest choke points gives a country immense bargaining power and will be an obvious member in any global trade-related groupings.
Suez Canal
Some of the world’s busiest Straits include Malacca Strait, Strait of Hormuz, Dover Strait, Bosphorus Strait, The Danish Straits, Sunda Strait among others that connect prominent continents. Malacca strait is the shortest shipping channel between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. Among artificial shipping routes, Germany’s Kiel Canal is the world’s busiest canal which accommodates more ships than the Suez and Panama Canal combined.
In today’s highly globalized world imports and exports are a necessary part of daily commercial business. Trade with other countries is one of the ways how countries can establish their presence for profitability or goodwill(or both)in a foreign land. All of these in turn for their faster functionality are dependent on Straits and Canals. Any obstruction or blockage of one of these chokepoints can have a vast and far-reaching cascading effect.
Artificial Intelligence is one of, if not the most, innovative technologies that has had a significant impact on the modern world. With frequent advances and researches done by scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs trying to progress the subject, it is an idea that continues to reach a wider audience. 2021 appears to be a good year for AI research and breakthroughs that will change how we operate in the future years.
Machine learning, a form of artificial intelligence, was producing disruptions across businesses before the pandemic wrecked havoc in 2020. During the COVID-19 pandemic, however, it became clear that self-teaching algorithms and smart devices will play an important role in the ongoing fight against viral outbreaks and will continue to benefit our civilization in the future. Artificial intelligence technology is still a hot topic in our professional and personal lives. So, here’s a rundown of AI breakthroughs in 2021 so far.
AI Predicting Behavioral Changes and aiding marketing
As businesses closed physically, with the onset of the covid-19 pandemic, we all realized that going online was the only facet that was left for businesses to run in the fast growing automated world. Today we see a significant development in several AI tools, developed over the course of the last couple of years that help us in doing exactly that. Brands today, are employing several AI integrated tools on their websites to harvest the metrics, demographics, locations etc. of the users that visit their site; and then utilize this so called ‘big data’, in personalizing user experience. Moreover, we also see that this big data collected by several different companies may actually be useful in predicting general trends that users follow, and the general behaviour of a population. Businesses who had previously been hesitant to use digital platforms have realised the seriousness of the problem and the high demand of AI. As small and medium-sized firms prepare to establish themselves in the digital age, AI-tools that provide organizations with self-service access to this emerging technology of data harvesting will become more popular throughout 2021.
Analyzing and eliminating the threat of another pandemic
Researchers and scientists are striving to develop AI systems that can predict the future. These AI-powered epidemiological tools will be solely focused on developing systems that can effectively anticipate the timing and location of future outbreaks. In fact, the study has progressed so far that AI was responsible for the first alerts regarding the current coronavirus outbreak. When Toronto-based BlueDot issued an alarm about a potential epidemic in Wuhan, China, on December 31, 2019, its programme examined 100,000 official and media data sources on a regular basis. 6 months into 2021, we may anticipate further artificial intelligence advancements. However, this will necessitate worldwide cooperation between governments and private businesses. Global politics and the pace of technology advancement will have an impact on the outcome. As a result, concerns like as access to medical datasets for prediction and detection models, as well as hurdles to international information interchange, may become major subjects in the near future.
AI and Vaccine Development
A new vaccination often takes years, if not decades, to create. However, barely three months after the first reported cases, vaccine candidates to combat covid-19 were already starting human testing by March 2020. AI models assisted researchers in analysing massive volumes of data regarding coronavirus, allowing vaccine development to move at a breakneck pace. The exterior proteins of a virus have tens of thousands of subcomponents. Machine learning algorithms can sift through this deluge of information and determine which subcomponents are the most immunogenic – i.e., capable of producing an immune response—and thereby guide researchers in designing targeted vaccines. Thus use of AI in vaccine development may revolutionize the way all vaccines are created in the future. Additionally, we may also see a increased investment of AI in the healthcare sector with more and more machine learning tactics being employed to simplify the manufacture of medication and treatment for patients. Moreover, the high long term return on investment with AI integrated technology will also motivate many countries to quickly start taking AI seriously for the benefit and welfare of their people.

Menstruation is associated with the onset of puberty in girls. Menstrual health and hygiene or menstrual hygiene management brings up the adequate access to menstrual hygiene products to collect and absorb the flow of blood during the menstruating period. It also refers to the privacy to change the used material to a new and clean one and to dispose the used one . Still today in many parts of India , menstruation is considered a taboo and often it brings with it tons of rules , many restrictions and sometimes discrimination and isolation. A girl or a women in her period is often excluded from many social and religious events and even sometimes they are not even allowed to enter in the kitchen of their own house . Cause of menstruation still being a taboo – Still today girls and women feel uncomfortable to talk about their period loudly and consider it a shame ; and not being talked about it loudly results in adolescent girls remaining unknown and ignorant of the hygiene and health practise which many a times results in adverse health conditions. Illiteracy , poverty and lack of awareness are the major behind menstruation still being a taboo in indian society. Several studies indicate that in india, specially in the rural areas and in the slums, most of the girls and women do not have consistent and adequate access to good quality menstrural hygiene products with 88% of them using homemade alternatives such as clothes, rags, hay, sand and ash. OUTCOMES OF NOT HAVING ACESS TO MENSTRUAL HYGIENE PRODUCTS Not having adequate access to clean and proper menstrual hygiene products causes many health problems like Reproductive Tract Infections (RTI), irritation of skin which causes discomfort and possibly results in dermatitis which is a medical condition in which the skins swells , turns red and at times becomes a sore with blisters. There is a balance of good and bad bacteria that live in the vagina . If this balance gets disrupted or hampered because of certain poor menstrual hygiene it causes vaginosis . This impact women the most when they are pregnant or trying to get pregnant . RTI also increases the chances of having cervical cancer. Added to the discomfort it also hampers their mobilty and day – to – day activites. Why is menstrual awareness important ? Myths about menstruation is largely prevalent forcing many girls to dropout of school early year at menarche in India . A study finds a 12 % decline in school enrollment rate for girls in the menarche group , also in the co-ed schools , disparity is clearly visible in the ratio of girls to boys always remaining low. It is very important to spread awareness on menstrual hygiene . Menstruation considered a taboo topic , most of the adolescent girls when they get their first period, they don’t know about “menstrual hygiene management “. Many a time, unawareness about menstrual hygiene has an a adverse impact on women’s health especially in rural areas and the slums of the cities. Not having access to proper menstrual hygiene products is the harsh reality of most rural and slum womens. Lack of information and other socio-cultural norms and the use of unhygenic products instead of safe sanitary napkins and tampons makes it difficult for the girls to remain hygenic . Its high time we spead correct information and educate the adolescent girls about menstruation and help them know about how to maintain proper menstrual hygiene . To educate girls and spread awareness among the womens of slums and the rural areas , the much needed measure is to spread awareness that it a normal very biological process and busts the myths associated with menstruation to ensure healthy menstrual practices.

‘Women belong to the weaker elements of the community,’ some remark. As a result, men dominate women and, at times, exploit women for their own amusement. Women are subjected to a wide range of forms of harassment. Sexual harassment is a widespread form of harassment in many regions of the world. Harassment of women in public areas by known and unknown individuals is referred to as eve teasing in India. Eve teasing literally means to bother or disturb women. It is defined as the act of harassing women, whether intentionally or unintentionally, physically or psychologically, in order to amuse, irritate, provoke, annoy, or embarrass them by words, statements, gestures, jokes, physical contact, and taunts. It is a distinct and euphemistic word for South Asia, particularly India. It is not used in the United Kingdom or other European countries.
More and more female students, women, and others are attending educational institutions, workplaces, and other places, and their safety is critical in a civilised and cultured society. The experiences of women and girls in overcrowded buses, metros, and trains are harrowing and terrible. Women now have positions of leadership in practically every industry, but eve teasing remains a social issue. Women are physically, psychologically, and socially impacted. They are embarrassed and would wish to forget the occurrence. Those who are impacted by eve teasing never question the man or resist the behaviour; instead, they play a subservient and tolerant attitude because they believe it will further tarnish their reputation.
FACTS AND FIGURES- According to the NCRB 2019(National Crime Record Bureau) report, a total of 4,05,861 occurrences of crime against women were registered in 2019, representing a 7.3 percent increase over 2018. (3,78,236 cases). The majority of instances under IPC crime against women were reported under ‘cruelty by spouse or his family’ (30.9), followed by ‘assault on women with purpose to violate her modesty’ (21.8%), ‘kidnapping & abduction of women’ (17.9%), and ‘rape’ (17.9%). (7.9 percent ). According to the NCRB study, the crime rate per lakh women population in 2019 is 62.4, up from 58.8 in 2018. Sections 354 and 509 of the Indian Penal Code deal with eve-teasing cases, which show a 13.05 percent increase in assault or criminal force against a woman with the intent to outrage her modesty, and an 18.9 percent decrease in incidents of insulting a woman’s modesty, respectively, from 2015 to 2016. As a deterrent, a growing number of college-aged women riding Delhi’s public transportation have resorted to carrying pins, pen blades, and even daggers. Others have enrolled in self-defense classes.
According to a recent survey, over 90% of college women in New Delhi had experienced sexual harassment in some form or another. Despite this, it is believed that only approximately 1 in 10000 cases of eve teasing are reported to the p olice.98 percent of women say sexual harassment on the road has harmed their personal or academic growth in some way.These facts may appear to be false and horrific, but they clearly demonstrate the predicament of women in India. Every day, the situation worsens.
HOW TO PREVENT– Many psychologists feel that sex, love, and enjoyment are not the main reasons why men engage in this behaviour. The patriarchal worldview of the Indian male is intimately linked to Eve teasing. Men are socialised to feel that they are more physically and emotionally powerful than women. They believe they are doing nothing wrong by simply having fun. It is also regarded as a growing social issue. This is due to many societal changes such as urbanisation, the influence of Western culture, modernization, and changes in the status of women’s roles, women’s freedom, and democratic changes. Eve teasing is perceived by society as a social deviance at the macro level and at individual micro level as a behaviour problem. Technology has ensured that the globe contracts and restricts itself within the confines of the internet. Technology can be one of the most effective means of putting an end to eve teasing. Set up SOS numbers for your loved ones. Keep the police help lines on speed dial and your GPS tracker turned on at all times. Download safety apps, learn how to use them correctly, and register on connected websites. This ensures that when you are in need, your close and dear ones will be able to reach you quickly. Being self-reliant means being able to defend yourself without the assistance of others. Self-reliance also entails cultivating an attitude and confidence such that a person thinks several times before even being around you, let alone touching or misbehaving. You can always learn martial arts or karate for this. Tae-Kwan-Do will also be used to settle the dispute. Be brave enough to ensure your own safety even if it means sacrificing your dignity.
Conclusion– Eve teasing is a violation of a woman’s honour, dignity, and self-respect. It is excruciatingly painful for her. It should be handled as a separate offence. To regulate it, we need rigorous laws and restrictions. There is an urgent need to address this rapidly rising issue. Eve-teasing may appear to be a less serious crime, but it can quickly escalate into a serious offence if not prevented in its early stages. In a country like India, where women are worshipped alongside the Gods, such behaviour toward women is unjust, unfair, and Hippocratic. We owe it to women to be respectful. Only then would we be on the path to happiness, prosperity, and success.

It is governed by the rules for native advertising, which include compliance with established truth-in-advertising standards and disclosure by endorsers (influencers) and is known as the Endorsement Guides.
Facebook and Instagram have a set of brand content policies for influencer marketing and endorsements.

Corruption has been in Indian society in some shape or another since time immemorial. Our opportunistic politicians, who have already done more harm to our country, are at the root of corruption. People who labour on the basis of correct ideals are acknowledged and seen as silly in today’s culture. Corruption in India is caused by the collaboration of bureaucrats, politicians, and criminals. Previously, bribes were paid to have the wrong things done, but now bribes are paid to get the right things done at the appropriate time. Furthermore, because respected individuals are participating in it, corruption has become something respectable in India. Social corruption such as under-weighing of products, adulteration in culinary items, and different types of bribery have persisted in society.
In today’s world, if a person wants a government job, he must pay lakhs of rupees to higher officials, even if he meets all of the eligibility criteria. In any office, one must either offer money to the employee in question or arrange for work to be done through other means. Adulteration and duplicate weighing of products occur in the food and civil supply departments by unethical workers who defraud consumers by jeopardising people’s health and life. Officers charge money in property tax assessments even if the house is built properly according to government norms and regulations.
In India, political corruption is at its highest. The primary source of concern is that corruption is weakening the political body and undermining the supremacy of the law that governs society. Politics is now solely for criminals, and criminals are designed to be in politics. Elections in several sections of the country have become connected with a slew of illicit activity. Threatening voters to vote for a specific candidate or physically preventing voters from entering polling booths – particularly weaker sectors of society such as tribals, Dalits, and rural women – occurs often in numerous parts of the country. The government has boosted the compensation of M.P.s from Rs.16, 000 to Rs.50, 000, a 300 percent increase over the previous salary. However, many of them are dissatisfied with the raise and want the government to increase the wage to a much greater amount. This clearly demonstrates how politicians are always out for monetary gain and are unconcerned about the wellbeing of the people. One of the most common types of corruption is tax evasion. It is usually practised by government officials and politicians, resulting in the buildup of black money, which lowers people’s morale.
MAJOR REASONS RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRUPTION-The nature of the human being is the most significant component. People in general have an insatiable desire for luxury and comforts, and as a result, they become involved in any dishonest activity that results in monetary or material gain. Moral and spiritual qualities are not prioritised in the educational system, which is largely to blame for the degeneration of society. Employees are paid extremely little, and as a result, they are obliged to generate money in illicit ways. The penalties placed on criminals are insufficient. Political leaders have absolutely ruined society. They live a lavish lifestyle and are unconcerned about society. The people of India have not been woken or enlightened. They are afraid to speak out against anti-social elements in society.
MEASURES– The Right to Information Act (RTI) provides all necessary information about the government, such as what the government does with our tax payments. This act gives you the right to ask the government about any problem you’re having. The Central Vigilance Commission is another effective anti-corruption tool (CVC). The Government established it to advise and guide Central Government entities in the areas of vigilance. If there are any instances of corruption or complaints about them, they can be filed to the CVC. CVC also bears the obligation of raising public awareness about the dangers of bribery and corruption. The establishment of special courts for expedited justice can be a tremendous benefit. There should not be a long period of time between the filing of a case and the delivering of a verdict. Strong and strict rules must be adopted, leaving no room for the guilty to flee. In many circumstances, personnel choose corrupt methods out of necessity rather than choice. Some people believe that the earnings they are paid are insufficient to feed their families. They would not be forced to accept bribes if they were paid more. The one thing that must be ensured is the correct, fair, and unbiased application of numerous anti-social legislation in order to take strong, deterrent, and prompt legal action against offenders, regardless of their political influence or financial strength. To combat the threat, firm and decisive efforts must be taken, and an environment must be established in which decent, patriotic intellectuals can come forward to serve the country with pride, virtue, and honesty for the benefit of the people of India.
Fitness is defined as the ability of the body to carry out various types of daily activities without feeling tired. Physical fitness is measured on the basis of some devices, and many scientific tests, and then compared to the ideal level of fitness, and determined the ability of the individual, and fitness efficiency. Fitness is divided into two parts: general fitness, which refers to health and well-being, and special fitness, which relates to a particular type of exercise. Good fitness can be obtained by getting proper nutrition and taking enough breaks.
Elements of fitness are all the components or characteristics that play an important and significant role in learning the exercise techniques and achieving sound health (such as strength, speed, elongation, agility, flexibility ….. etc) and all the qualities that result from the merger of two or more of them. Determining the elements of physical fitness varied from school to school and from one scientist to another according to their views, but most of them agreed on some basic fitness elements, and we have addressed some of them here.
Muscle Strength
Muscle strength can be defined as the ability of a muscle to exert as much energy as possible. There are a number of factors that affect muscle strength; such as muscle size, number, and type of fibers, and elasticity, in addition to psychological factors.
Body Composition
Body composition is the ratio of fat mass to fat-free mass in the body, and muscles, bones, cartilage, and other vital parts of the body are part of the fat-free mass.
Speed Fitness
Speed is the element that indicates the time a muscle needs to exert the required physical effort and is affected by many factors; such as muscle fibers, strength, and elasticity, as well as a strong will, and nervous compatibility.
Balance and Coordination
Balance indicates the body’s ability to resist falling as long as possible. It is influenced by the integrity of the body’s organs, its equilibrium base, its high center of gravity, as well as the Earth’s gravity line, and psychological factors.
Flexibility
Flexibility expresses an individual’s ability to perform activities to the greatest extent that a muscle allows. It is affected by the mobility of the joints well, the elasticity of the muscle. Continuous and regular training has an effect on muscle flexibility.
Agility
Agility is the ability of an individual to change the direction of his body, whether on the ground or in the air, in the shortest possible time. The body’s agility is influenced by many factors; the most important are: the integrity of the nervous system, muscle capacity, as well as the type of activity, and the speed of the body’s response to it.
Cardiovascular Endurance
Endurance is the expression of the ability of the body and its muscles to the possibility of fatigue and stress while exercising a certain physical activity. This is an important element of fitness and must be available to those who work in conditions that require long and arduous hours of work.
There are many ways to improve physical fitness, including:Exercise Frequency: The number of times a person should exercise for more than a week. Exercise intensity control: The target heart rate should be reached when performing the exercise. The maximum rate depends on the age, as subtracted from 220, the maximum number of heartbeats is 220 minus 50, or 170 beats per minute for a 50-year-old. The goal is to reach 50% – 85% of this rate. This can be determined by monitoring the ease and difficulty of each exercise. If the exercise is easy, the intensity should be increased to suit the person. Optimal Exercise Time: Exercise time should be more than usual. If you want to lose weight or meet specific fitness goals, you may need to do more exercise. Change Exercise Type: Exercises should be changed from time to time. If a person is constantly walking, he can move on to jogging, then jogging, or move to another exercise altogether, such as swimming.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of the most iconic names in football history. He is one of the most decorated active players in football. Zlatan has played for one of the biggest clubs in football history ( Ajax, Juventus, Inter Milan, Ac Milan, Barcelona, Paris Saint Germain, Manchester United). In this candid autobiography, one of the most enigmatic footballers of his generation shares his opinions on his great career and personal life. It has received numerous accolades for its candour and no-holds-barred attitude. It’s arrogant and aggressive, and it perfectly describes the guy, but it’s also evident that he’s self-aware, and has harnessed his inner qualities to become one of football’s most revered figures during the previous two decades.
I Am Football is extensively illustrated with photographs from Zlatan’s football career and concludes with over 50 pages of statistics from his career between 1999 and 2018, addressing queries such as how many minutes he played for Inter and how many goals he scored with his right foot. A compilation of all the facts for every club he has ever played for, as well as the Swedish national team.
It covers his football career from Malmö FF to Manchester United and the move to LA Galaxy, giving us a first-hand account of how he climbed from underdog to superstar, his move from Milan to Paris SG, and how he dealt with his devastating knee injury at Manchester United. On top of that, he tells us about his objectives, victories, and the constant sensation of needing to be better in order to be accepted. The book also includes interviews with players, managers, and friends who have been a part of his journey, such as José Mourinho, Paul Pogba, Patrick Vieria, Roland Andersson, Henrik Larsson, Thierry Henry, and Mino Raiola, to provide a more complete portrait of the man himself.
Much of the book has been serialised, with Arsenal requesting a trial and a slew of obscenities aimed at Pep Guardiola and Barcelona in general, but the story is far more interesting than any of the juicy sections picked ripe for press publication. There’s a lot to Zlatan; his family, particularly his father, were profoundly wounded by the Yugoslavia conflict, which had an impact on the footballer’s upbringing as a child. Zlatan goes out of his way to praise his father whenever there is a hint of criticism, but there is no escaping the stories about a young Zlatan frequently arriving home to find no food in the house while his father drank beer and listened to ‘Yugo’ music. His environment appears to have pushed Zlatan to seek out the guardian position that he had missed out on for much of his boyhood. The battles, disputes, and rebellion are all nicely chronicled and humourous as well as informative, but Zlatan looked to be looking for others to parent him for most of his early career without publicly asking for it.
The way he talks about Helena(his wife) makes it plain that he considers himself fortunate to have her; the two couldn’t be more dissimilar, and Helena was the stereotypical older lady in that she was classy, educated, and smart. Mino Raiola, who Zlatan worked with as an agent at Ajax, was the polar opposite. He was fat, sweary, pushy, and as impolite as he could get away with. None of that mattered since Mino got things done and really aided Zlatan.
While most will be left with the story of a man growing up and eventually fulfilling all of his aspirations, there is no getting away from the battles. Zalatan’s struggle with a petulant Rafael van der Vaart at Ajax is intriguing, and his AC Milan training ground brawl that left a teammate with a black eye reveals a lot about what manager Fabio Capello was willing to accept, and even promote. Capello is one of those men who commands Zlatan’s respect without question and has taught the player to accept it rather than earn it.
He’s arrogant, but it quickly becomes evident that much of this was developed as a protective strategy in childhood and increased when his anxieties about trusting people were validated. It would be difficult to read the book without warming to the player, and there is far more to learn from this than from any other football autobiography published in recent years.
With the revelations and insights, almost every page might launch a story on its own. As much as a look at Zlatan Ibrahimovic, this is a good view on how football truly works at the top level and will leave a football fan more informed on the dynamics of the game.
