On the rising population there is also rise in demand of family members related to commodities. Many of the family don’t even get 2 meals per day! there is lack of only one thing and that is money. It is said that
“Empty stomach can make you to do anything”
To fill the stomach people can do anything especially when they have family to feed. Now-a-days the crises and cruelty has increased drastically that alone 1 man cannot feed the all 4 members in the lower labour section. So, unwillingly all the family members had to work at the field and contribute some money towards family to sleep without an empty stomach at night.
There are many schemes released by government to stop the child labour like making primary education almost free for poor children along with mid-day meal to them so that they do not have to crave for the meals and keep focus on the study, they are also regularly checked by medical if there is any weakness in any of the student. National Child Labour Project (NCPL) is a central government branch which takes strict actions against child labour and works at the best to resist this act. According to UNICEF, India with the highest amount of population has also high number of child labour cases under the age of 14 and 1% of it i.e. approx 1,20,000 are forced to engage in hazardous jobs.

Every year on the day of 12 June it is marked as Anti-Child labour day to draw the attention on the issue of child labour. Every year there is different themes on this day:
In 2020 the theme was “Protect children from child labour, now more than ever”.
In 2019 the theme was “Children shouldn’t work in fields, but on dreams”.
In 2018 the theme was“Generation safe and Healthy”.
IN 2017 the theme was “In conflicts and disasters, protect children from child labour”.
In 2016 the theme was “End child labour in supply chains – It’s everyone’s business!”.
In 2015 the theme was “NO to child labour – YES to quality education!”.
Now the matter is not just to put it to one day and on a piece of paper, it’s a world wide conflict and has to be somehow resolved. Every year various types of acts and event are performed by students of schools, college and NGOs too, but this year digitally the message was forwarded as due to lockdown and pandemic situation rallies, etc cannot be held.

Children around the world are regularly engaged in hazardous activities that affect their mental, physical, social or educational development. Every year World Day Against Child Labor Day is celebrated on 12 June to provide a growing and developing environment for children to live a dignified life. In 1919, the International Labor Organisation (ILO) was founded and in 2002″World Day against Child Labour” was established to abolish child labor.
Impact of COVID-19 on Children
World Day against Child Labor 2020 focuses on the impact of COVID-19 on child labor. The COVID-19 pandemic has a huge impact on Livelihoods of the labor market and children are often the first to suffer. The economic slowdown has forced millions of children to left their school and opt for minimal jobs to support their parents for the livelihood. This year, the World Day Against Child labor is being conducted as a virtual campaign and organized jointly with the Global March Against child labor and the International Partnership for Cooperation on Child labor in Agriculture.
If children are provided with a suitable environment to enjoy their life, surely they will contribute to the economic and social growth of the country. So stop child labor, protect the right of children, and support them.
Starting from accompanying maid to officially working as an underage child, supporting family, and taking over responsibilities on shoulders. A child goes through a lot when he is below the poverty line. In our country, the government shifts the poverty line in spite of making people move upward and releases stats stating there are fewer people below the poverty line in comparison. For example, maids help in household works, sometimes they are accompanied by their children, the Chotu who brings tea at your working hours in the office.
What is child labor? Working at a young age is just an incomplete definition of child labor. Child labor implies the ill treatment or utilization of children through any aspect of work that binds children, obstructs their ability to give attention to schooling, and is mentally, physically, socially, or purely harmful. Poverty is considered as the basic reason behind the working of a child. Upscale nations like the US, Europe, and Canada account for just 1% of the crew whereas Asia accounts for about 22%. History. In 1757, the battle of Plassey ie the British gained power in conquered states of Bihar, Bengal, and Orissa. The states were prominent for agricultural work in the country, so after the battle, the British took advantage of the innocence of children. Also, kids were unaware of their rights, they were forced to work as children due to poverty, unemployment, and many such crises. The demand for laborers was also at the peak and children were enrolled for fewer payments.
Stats of India. The country was the home to the highest number of illegal workings of children in 2015. As agriculture was one of the most active occupations in the country, so to cover-up family issues and financial crisis children we’re a helping hand. In the list of giving birth to India’s child labor hubs, Uttar Pradesh is on top and it accounts for approximately 20% of India’s child laborer. Combining Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Maharashtra summaries for over half of India’s total child labor population. There are differences in urban and rural areas. Child labor is prominent in rural areas. About 80% of working children live in villages and most of them are part of agriculture practices while others are engaged in household industries and hazardous works. In fact, boys are pushed to do hazardous work compared to girls(according to the International Labour Organization’s World Report on Child Labour 2015).
The positive thing that was seen after decades was a spectacular fall in child labor in the last two decades. For example, there was a considerable 45% decrease in child labor between 2004-05 and 2009-10, due to plans like Right to Education, MNREGA, Mid-Day Meal, which gave children an encouragement to study. https://www.savethechildren.in/resource-center/articles/statistics-of-child-labour-in-India-st ate-wise Child labor affects the mental and physical condition of a child. It results in malnutrition, misuse, premature aging, increases drug dependency, sexual abuse, etc. Child labor can have lifelong negative consequences on children’s physical, mental, and social development, robbing them of a chance to play and learn,” said UNICEF Executive Director Henrietta Fore. “We need to address the root causes that push children to work, like poverty and violence. We also need concrete solutions to ensure that families have alternative income sources and children have access to quality education and protective services.” https://www.ilo.org/global/about-the-ilo/newsroom/news/WCMS_728159/lang–en/index.html
Change in perspective can bring change in the country.
WHAT ARE PULSES? Pulses are basically a fruit part of leguminous crops that are harvested solely for the seeds. Dried beans, lentils, and peas are the most common known and consumed pulses. Pulses do not include crops which are harvested green – these are the vegetable crops. Also excluded are those crops used mainly for oil extraction and leguminous crops that are exclusively used for sowing purposes. Generally, all pulses have a similar structure, but differ in color, shape, size and thickness of the seed coat. Mature seeds have three components – Seed Coat, Cotyledons and Embryo. The seed coat or hull accounts for 7-15% of whole seed mass, cotyledons accounts for 85% of total seed and embryo for 1-4%.
STRUCTURE The external structures of the seed are testa (i.e. seed coat), hilum, micropyle and raphe. • The testa is the outer most part of the seed and covers almost all of the seed surface. • The hilum is an oval scar on the seed coat where the seed was attached to the stalk. • The micropyle is a small opening in the seed coat next to the hilum. • The raphe is a ridge on the side of the hilum opposite to the micropyle. When the seed coat is removed from the grain, the remaining part is the embryonic structure. The embryonic structure of the pulse consists of two cotyledons (or seed leaves) and a short axis above and below them These two cotyledons are not physically attach to each other except at the axis and a weak protection is provided by the seed coat to these cotyledons. Thus, the seed is usually vulnerable to breakage. The outermost layer of the seed coat is the cuticle, and it can be smooth or rough. • Both the micropyle and the hilum are related to the permeability of the testa and to water absorption.
There are various steps involved in processing of pulses:
SOAKING – Soaking in water is the first step in preparing pulses for consumption. It reduces the oligosaccharides of the raffinose family. It also reduces the amount of phytic acid in pulses.
GERMINATION – It improves the nutritive value of food pulses. The ascorbic acid content of pulses increase manifold after 48 hours of germination. The germination process decreases or eliminates most of the anti nutritional and toxic factors in several pulses.
DECORTICATION – It is a simple method to soak the seeds for a short time in water, the husk takes up more water than the seeds and may be easily separated by rubbing while still moist. In the alternative, the soaked grains may be dried and the husk is removed by pounding and winnowing. Roasting also renders the husk easier to separate.
COOKING – It destroys the enzyme inhibitors and thus improves the nutritional quality of food pulses. It also improves the palatability of the pulse.
FERMENTATION – This process increases the pulse digestibility, palatability and nutritive value. It also improves the availability of essential amino acids and thus, the nutritional quality of protein of the blend.
PULSE MILLING – The removal of the outer husk and splitting the grain into two equal halves is known as milling of pulses.
Corona virus or as its scientifically referred as Covid-19 has brought the world to its knees. How it got here, who is responsible, when will the vaccine be created and many other questions regarding to it are up to debate. However, one thing that is definitely the need of the hour is to get this disease to a halt, to decrease the number of patients. What the world needs, is a game plan which can deliver successful results. We need to flatten the curve should we want to open up the country again. So far India hasn’t shown such promise, with the number of cases increasing every day, we see a sharp increase in the graph since the partial reopening. One such country that boasts xero cases is New Zealand.
New Zealand has been able to reduce its number of cases to the point where they were able to announce zero reported cases due to a number of reasons. They have a rather small population, only 5 million or so, which is much lesser than most of the worst hit nations, India included. Another major factor is the decisive and fast action that the New Zealand government took to ensure rapid containment of the disease. They also used stringent lockdown measures in order to decrease the rate of spread of infection. Their alertness and strict policies ensured that the disease slowed due to a near inexistent halt. However, they were lucky enough that their population was low, because for a country the size of India, with its population density its very difficult to pull this task off. What doesn’t help is the state and central government bickering in order to gain an upper hand and increase their public popularity. Many states aren’t yet equipped to handle the sudden increase of patients. In Delhi, patients have to wander from hospital to hospital for treatment of coronavirus. Some of those admitted to hospitals have also gone missing. In Covid-designated Lok Nayak Jai Prakash (LNJP) Hospital, the bodies could not be accounted for. Bodies of dead people are being piled up in hospitals such as state-run LNGP and centre-run Safdarjung hospital. With such ill-equipped state of various states across the country its hard not to feel disheartened and try to approach the courts. However, in many cases that too is no longer an option, as two advocates filed PILs in Delhi High court to ask for an extension of lockdown due to the increasing tread of number of cases. Both the PILs gave good points in favour of an extended lockdown in Delhi, as it would provide a much-needed breathing space to the facilities concerning the virus and also in some manner break the transmission cycle. The plea also gave forward estimates of one lakh COVID-19 cases in the national capital by end of June and the number would escalate to around 2.25 lakh by mid-July and over 5.5 lakh by July end which the Delhi government themselves admitted. Strict measures are of the utmost importance to stop the increasing graph. However, the Delhi HC declined the PILs and did not give reasons as to why they were not entertained.
The Constitution of India mandates equality before law, yet informal practices of exclusion and inequality continue to plague our legal systems. Lack of legal awareness, affordable legal aid, delays and inefficiencies in court, and corruption within law enforcement are all impediments on the road to justice. International human rights standards and modern legal systems unanimously affirm that equitable treatment under law is a fundamental component of democracy. Yet in practice, injustice is rampant across the world, with its largest democracy, India, proving to be no exception. Across the world, socially and economically vulnerable groups bear the brunt of these abuses.“The United Nations has learned that the rule of law is not a luxury and that justice is not a side issue. We have seen people lose faith in a peace process when they do not feel safe from crime. We have seen that without a credible machinery to enforce the law and resolve disputes, people resorted to violence and illegal means.”
– Kofi Annan, Secretary General, UN (1997 – 2006)
Standing in the way of India’s growth story
• India ranks 76 / 176 on Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index
• India ranks 77 / 113 for ‘Regulatory Enforcement’ on the World Justice Project’s Rule of Law Index, 2016
• Wages and business lost annually due to time spent in court hearings amounts to 0.48% of India’s GDP
Access to justice: Building blocks and gaps
Historically, the State’s obligation to ensure access to justice was restricted to:
1.Creation of laws that protected all citizens equally, and
2.Entitlement of every person to defend claims in courts.
For decades after Independence, the Indian government made no efforts to facilitate a population-wide understanding of the law or to encourage use of judicial systems. In 1976, however, India introduced Article 39A to the Constitution, which recognized the right of economically disadvantaged individuals to free legal aid. While this amendment was a step towards bridging the gap between having a justice system and enabling its use, it has had limited success in truly reducing this gap on the ground.In order to address inherent power imbalances in India today and ensure universal access to justice, it is essential to widen the discourse from merely strengthening legal institutions to also increasing citizens’ legal empowerment (i.e. the ability to understand, use and shape the law to secure justice). Access to justice needs to be extended to include all the elements needed to help citizens and individuals seek redressal for grievances (against individuals or the State) and to demand that their rights be upheld.
4 Step Framework To Improve Access To Justice
“Sometimes even highly educated people have a problem understanding, and therefore interpreting, the correct meaning of some of our laws… an attempt should be made to simplify the language of the law so that anyone who reads judgments and laws can easily understand their true meaning.”
– Manmohan Singh, former Prime Minister of IndiaMake laws accessible and comprehensible for legal empowerment
Make laws accessible and comprehensible for legal empowerment
This will enable each citizen to know of and take legal recourse when his/her rights are violated.
Streamline case management processes in courts
This will reduce the period of time for which litigants are embroiled in the system, as well as build greater trust in the system.
Drive accountability and support police and prison systems
This will help these agencies operate more sensitively and effectively to uphold the rights of all citizens including victims, accused, undertrials and the most marginalized
Ensure high quality, affordable legal aid
If one should choose to access courts, guarantees every individual a chance at a fair trial, regardless of economic and social background
After important milestones in education all folks faces this question ‘what next’ after class 10th, after class 12th and after graduation. Career counseling can help altogether the main milestones in one’s career. Firstly, to make a decision a stream and subject combinations, to make a decision the graduation course, and then, to make a decision the post graduation and career option
In school a helpless 16 year old is faced with the selection of varied streams – Humanities, Science with mathematics, science with biology and Commerce, and therefore the only career guidance he has is the opinion of his parents, his teacher’s judgment based on his marks and the comments of his friends and neighbors. A class 11th -12th student together with his subject combinations is flooded with agencies providing various entrance preparation and colleges luring his / her attention. What help he has parents, teachers and admission counselors whose only job is to put the scholar in college and course where they’re going to get commission. A graduate who is doing the course because the oldsters wants him/ her to try to to it or he wasn’t sure of the other and thus is doing the course is also confused about career choices.
We strive to form a progressive world today, where technologies are booming there are many opportunities with various fields where one can make a far better career so guidance provides guidance to an individual to possess a transparent glimpse on what to pursue and the way much duration it takes to finish the course and costs .In today’s world there are also multiple career choices starting from medicine to mass communications, engineering to event management, marine biology to information technology, culinary arts to music.
Choosing a field of study that’s not really suited to your interests or skills could prove disastrous. And that’s where career counseling comes in.
How career counseling works?
Career Counseling involves scientifically developed aptitude tests and personality tests that helps a career counselor give the simplest suited career advice to the scholar supported his report of his aptitude and personality. Human capacities are infinite and may never be measured, nor are we to gauge of what one can do. Every person has unique characteristics, for everybody has his or her own strengths and weaknesses. The key is to identify these unique qualities is through Psychometric Test and career counseling.
What does career counseling offer?
Making an Informed Choice to Choose a Career
Career counseling sessions helps the students to know the pros and cons of the different streams, courses and educational options and the career path it offers, thus the students can make an informed choice, and obtain a career assessment that helps avoid the danger of change in career path later in life. The importance of pinpointing the work cut out for every person can only be gauged when one sees the agony of utmost job misfits. So a career counseling and guidance is needed to help organize ones thoughts and ideas on career related decisions. It can boost the morale and confidence and provides new directions to the scholars which can be beneficial for the entire society. Career counseling helps students discover their true potential and interest in various subjects so as to assist them choose the proper career. Several institutes, including schools and colleges, today offer guidance through a series of aptitude and IQ tests. The tests usually have multiple-choice questions, which don’t got to be prepared for in any way.
Guidance to students
Career counseling is that the guidance given to a student on the road he/she should fancy achieve his/her goals. The advice and counseling provided is predicated on three deciding factors — personality, aptitude and interest.
No confusions
Friends and family can fairly often provide incorrect guidance because their parameters of judging a career choice might differ. A counselor is objective while giving guidance, with no considerations aside from aptitude and interest.
Job Satisfaction
Choosing a career that matches one’s aptitude and personality itself translates into professional success and recognition . The main aim of guidance is to assist students choose a field that’s in tune with their skills and their job expectations. Thus, with the assistance of guidance , most candidates find yourself choosing the proper career, and perform their utmost , which ultimately helps them succeed.
Though not many faculties in India give guidance to students, if your school doesn’t provide you professional counselors, you’ll always seek the assistance of independent counselors. It is always better to hunt professional guidance instead of choose something that the entire herd goes for.
Challenges Associated with Career Counseling
Encouraging Parents and students to take part in counseling is very difficult as people still have a perception that it is time-consuming.
For example in India, there are still 60% of individuals who don’t take career advice 70% of individuals under 14 say they need had no careers advice while 45% of people over 14 have had no or very poor/limited advice.
Over the previous couple of years, there has been a rise within the number of scholars choosing courses aside from engineering. While this is often a positive sign, there’s no doubting the very fact that engineering still remains a dominant choice of scholars pursuing higher studies.
People in India still have a perception that Government service is a secure career so they hesitate to take part in counseling sessions. Financial problems often provide a drawback in students career even if he/she is good in studies students they visit the career fairs but fails for admissions due to lack of money.
The seasonal monsoons rains have already made its way in Southern India and will soon be entering the mid-plateau area (western ghats) of India within two to three days. The monsoon season is truly a blessing for the whole country ,be it crops, irrigation, water bodies or even for hydroelectricity and the most important one is that monsoon rains are used in ground water storage which is essential for multiple purposes.
Every year we expect a good replenishment of monsoon rains from the month of July till the month of September, Indian economy is an agro based economy, our farmers are highly dependent on the monsoon season for their crops. Fifteen percent of India’s GDP is covered by agriculture alone. The farmers look forward to a good monsoon season which not only waters their major crops (Eg-rice, pulses and cotton) but also fills the nearby water bodies to avoid drought like conditions.
But there are some disadvantages as well, on numerous occasions monsoons have become the cause of flooding, the 2019 monsoon created havoc b breathing flood like situation in various parts of Maharashtra which is usually not the case, this damages vehicles, property and much more.eg-During the 2019 Monsoon season specifically during the month of august and September most of the cities in both the states were affected by flood like situations causing rail and road damage, it was said to be the heaviest monsoon in the last 27 years, it cause huge crop damage and also led to deaths. One of the worst cities affected by monsoon almost every year is Mumbai.
Disease de facto-
It is also one of the biggest causes behind vector diseases like malaria and dengue due to water logging and stagnant water which becomes a house of for these deadly creatures. India has 15 million cases of Malaria on an average every year during the monsoon season with around 16,000 deaths every year.
Water logging and drainage woes-
Monsoon also causes water logging and creates problem in drainage system, leading to blocked drain, overflow of sewage water and many other problems. Heavy monsoon can also be disastrous to crops as well as it can destroy the most essential crops of the coming season which can lead to farmers facing a huge amount of loss.
Landslide and mudslides–
Due to monsoon may areas become prone to landslides, and can destroy villages and farms causing people to lose their livelihood along with their living. This also destroys land and can cause levelling problems.eg- the Malin landslide which took place in a village (Ambegaon Taluka) in Maharashtra caused displacement of so many villagers, the landslide devoured the whole village. The death toll reached 136 and the villagers had to re-built their lives from scratch.
Soil erosion-
Also soil erosion is common as heavy monsoons leads t runoff and in many cases this lead to soil erosion, due to soil erosion many trees are uprooted due to heavy rainfall as their roots have no soil to hold onto and the roots are more exposed to being damaged as the layers of soil drastically have been swiped out due to the torrential rains.
Monsoon comes with its many beneficiaries but too much of it can cause disdain and wreck damage to people, property and much more.
In the pandemic situation where the world seeks a miracle of vaccines, there are many business that came to halt or even they are going to be shut soon. Currently the major task of ours is to stop the spreading of corona virus. It is wisely said “If there is Health there is Wealth”. First we need to cope up with the pandemic situation and then business can be again built, if we stay alive.
CNBC Global CFO survey says that 40% of the business are facing the problem in transportation of the goods and it is expected that it would take more 5-6 months to start and run normally (25% of them said 6 months and other would take a long than that).
“Nobody knows. The economic issues are totally driven by public health issues. You tell me how long we will be at home and I will tell you how long it will take for the economy and supply chains to recover.”
-words of Yossi Sheffi, Professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the director of the MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics. Yossi Sheffi further says, if we want to build our business again as soon as possible than there is only one way out to do this and that is to join the war again corona virus and defeat it as early as possible, this epic war is started by many of the companies with their different types of help they can provide, like wise:

Apple and Facebook are the largest in supplying protective mask in the U.S.
HanesBrands in contract with US federal government has decided to make cotton mask when the use of N-95 mask will be minimum. They decided to make 1.5 million mask weekly, and further if needed can go upto 5-6 million mask per week.
The supply chain is completely disturb there is over manufacturing as there is no one to load and unload the trucks. Border shipping is still allowed but shipping through overseas it still a major concern. There will be also huge disturb in supply chain of for pre-planned Indian weddings, as now weddings are postponed or might be done in simple way, the business related to it like party plots, wedding photographers, ca tress, decorators, wedding materials, transportation, apparels and even small-small business related to it. A single event covers many business so all the business are affected largely.
The business of theater and restaurant are also at halt, which may cause a major set back as there are many of the workers working in restaurant it self. In film industry too many of the workers are engaged.

HUGs, yes you read it right. Give a warm cozy hug to your father and share how good you feel about him and trust me, it will work more than enough and your lovely dad will be happy in less than a second.
Apart from that try presenting him a lovely pair of socks because this is something that will definitely come in his use and won’t just eat dirt in the showcase.
A grooming and facial kit is also a good suggestion and will come handy to him in times of urgency when he hasn’t got any time to go and wait in saloons.
Apart from that, a coffee mug with vacuum sealed lid is also a nice buy as he can effortlessly carry tea, coffee or any beverage he loves which will remain hot or cold for 3 hrs.
A personalized photo frame or latest novel by this fav author is also a good stuff to think about. Further, gift him the membership of gym or yoga class that will add a pinch of health in your gift.
To escalate this gifting stuff why don’t you present him with his favourite snack in the evening so that he can go to bed with a smile on his face .
But you mustn’t forget,. Your affection, love and care is all what will really make his day and he will feel proud to have a child like you.
What happens when people take the decisions of your life? When an unborn child is murdered before even stepping into this world? Who gave them the right to do so? Is it legal or illegal when a young girl is murdered with her unborn child by her parents? These questions triggerd in my mind while reading a recent story which took place in Telangana, where a 20-year old girl was murdered overnight by her parents because she refused for abortion. Digging deep into this story, I found out that the young girl was in love with a man from another caste and this was also a reason because of which her parents committed an unlawful crime by killing her overnight because her actions were against them. Earlier she agreed with her parents on aborting the child but later on she changed her mind and wanted to bring the baby in the world but she didn’t knew what misfortune was coming in her way and the poor child died even before opening his eyes. Who among us will be the one like her parents? Will try to commit this false crime? Or who among us will take a stand and support her and who all will fight with her? Stories like this revolve around the world where again the society plays a major role, not allowing the people to live and breath. According to the WHO, every year an estimated 40-50 million people who face unplanned pregnancy decide to have an abortion in the world. What a strange thing which is a tabu in some parts of the world where men cause women to be pregnant but it is the woman who alone bears the child and goes through a difficult period of pain and suffering. I am not only talking about teenage pregnancies but also about the mothers who face early pregnancy or about the mother who does not want to perceive. I am neither against the abortion nor standing with it, but as a girl I want the society to let the mother decide what she wants and not force her to kill the child because of various reasons.

Medical Termination of Pregnancy(MTP)
Since the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act allows women to seek abortion as a part of reproductive rights and gender justice. This amendment places India on the top league of the countries where a woman can make individual choices from their perspective. In India, abortions are legal in certain situations, as for unmarried girls, rape victims and for married women with different reasons. There has been a decreasing rate in abortion since India made it illegal to detect the sex of the foetus. But there is a time limit given to the woman for getting an abortion done. A woman should always make sure to have a safe abortion procedure inorder to keep her body safe and always ask the doctor before getting it done.
Reasons why women get this done
1.Peer pressure, the biggest reason for a woman to get her child aborted. Where society never lets the woman live and allow to make her own decision which makes the abortion as the only solution. 2.Female Foeticide, which comes under peer pressure, where the society never lets a girl child to step into this world and gets her killed before her birth. 3.Rape victims and differently- abled.
Since this is a very vague and wide topic, I would like to end it here with a quote “Abortion is a part of being a mother and caring for children because part of her caring of her children is knowing when its not a good idea to bring them into the world”-Katha Pollitt.
