The International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking is observed on June 26th every year since 1987, after the United Nations General Assembly decided to see this day to spread awareness about drug-related issues among people. This year’s theme, ‘Share Facts on Drugs, Save Lives’, aims at educating people about the effects of drug consumption, its treatment, and ways to combat misinformation about drugs.

People consume different drugs to create pleasure for themselves. Especially the youth consume it; mostly in peer pressure. Other reasons can also make people opt for drugs like any stress; be it personal or professional. When such drugs are consumed in heavy amounts its results are dangerous. It can even result in death due to the failure of organs. It can also cause hallucinations, reduce memory power, lowered attention, insomnia, and difficulty decision making.

Drug abuse for a long time can even cause depression and anxiety. People who are addicted, even overuse their medically prescribed drugs by buying them from different medical stores.

People commit crimes due to drug abuse as they lose control over themselves and their conscience. There have been cases where people have become ill-tempered and have murdered or attempted to murder people just because of some small argument. Their relationships with their families and friend have been destroyed. They have lost their jobs and are living chaotic life. They get aggressive and violent over time.

It is important to talk to people who abuse drugs and find out the reason for their condition; what made them fall into this trap, and not just push them away. if medical help is required, they can be sent to rehabilitation centers to make them addiction-free and help them live a normal life. things happen around us, but we often tend to ignore such things walk away; without bothering about it as it has nothing to do with us. As responsible people and for the sake of humanity we must try and help such people.

Agriculture is not farming it’s feeding.

Agriculture is defined as the science and art of soil farming, and this definition emphasizes the primary nature of plant production in agriculture. It is not only a means of livelihood but a way of life. Agriculture is the most fundamental form of human activity and involves not only the cultivation of crops but also the domination of animals. Thus, agricultural land is the most basic of the world’s vast and diverse resources, and it provides food, clothing, and shelter to the human population. It is the main source of food, feed, and fuel. It is the basic foundation of economic development. Agriculture is the backbone of our economy. Agriculture is not only important from an economic point of view, but it has a profound impact on our social, political, and cultural life.

The agriculture industry in India reached a value of INR 63,506 billion in 2020. The agriculture industry represents an important component of the Indian economy both in terms of its contribution to the GDP as well as a source of employment to the majority of the country’s population. This sector is currently showing immense opportunities, with India presently being one of the world’s largest agricultural producers by value. A number of transformations have taken place in this sector over the past few decades. These include – rising penetration of the organized sector, growth in contract farming, agriculture becoming more mechanized, easy loan facilities, rise of exports, use of agrochemicals and high yielding seeds, and an increasing role of the private sector in processing, branding and marketing.

India is the second-largest populated country accounting for 18% of the total world population. With an increase in the population, the need for various agricultural products has increased significantly. This rise has prompted the farmers to adopt enhanced technologies and methods in dairy, fisheries and livestock in order to meet the diversified food needs of the people. Additionally, more than 50% of India’s population is dependent on agricultural products which is further promoting the growth of the market.

Over the past few years, India’s GDP has been growing at a steady pace which has resulted in a rise in the disposable incomes of the consumers. This rise has driven the agriculture market both in terms of the producer and consumer. It has enabled farmers to invest more in advanced agricultural infrastructure such as irrigation facilities, quality seeds, equipment’s, fertilizers, warehousing, cold storage, etc. It has also increased the consumers purchasing power creating a positive impact on the domestic demand of agriculture products. India represents one of the most bio-diverse countries in the world. The country encompasses various types of climatic conditions and soil types suitable for cultivating a large number of cereals, fruits, vegetables, flowers, cash crops, etc. The Indo-Gangetic plain, for instance, represents one of the most fertile lands across the globe. In addition, India also represents the second largest fish producing country in the world. The country has diverse resources ranging from deep seas to lakes in the mountains and more than 10% of the global biodiversity in terms of fish and shellfish species.

The establishment of rural banking and credit system has also played a pivotal role in the growth of the agriculture industry. The transformation of agriculture from subsistence to commercialization requires investment on the farm along with the use of modern inputs. With the availability of credit, the constraint on certain inputs like seed, fertilizer, pesticides, hired labor, etc. has been reduced.

RACISM IN THE FORM OF COLORISM

Our country has a history of being ruled by the whites, i.e. the Portuguese, the Dutch and French traders, the Mughals, the British. They were relatively fairer than the rest of the Indian population. This succession by the white people left behind the desperate desire of looking fair. Indians felt that only the light skin people can attain power, dignity and respect as they were the master race. The racial prejudice in our country has taken the form of colorism. The basic definition of colorism means that differentiating or classification of a person from another on the basis of the skin tone or complexion. Discrimination against the members of the same race due to their dark skin complexion is called colorism. The black people are generally considered of a lower status and they are included in the lowest strata of the society while the fair is considered the noble and intellectual. In our Indian society, the complexion of a person is given a lot of importance, fair people are believed to have positive impacts and the dark has negative impacts. This is how the stereotypical mindsets of the Indians work. The black is now hated upon, it is highly condemned by the people worldwide.

Racism and colorism are very closely related to each other. People with a lighter skin tone were considered as a rich of an upper-caste while people with a dusky skin tone is considered as a poor of a lower caste. Due to the color discrimination, the black people face problems all over the world. It brings down their morale, enthusiasm, self-efficiency to a great extent. They fear the world outside, the voices of the black people go unheard. They do not receive the right amount of appreciation, instead they face constant hatred and are subjected to brutality. The black people face harassment be it in either a physical or virtual form on any online platform. They are bullied not only on the basis of their color, but also on the basis of the structure of their lips or any facial attribute. The black color is the least preferred color in the entire human race. They are denied access to educational institutions, workplace or employment services, social services etc. There is no system which would act as a protection shield against the brutal and the inhumane bullying. The crime rate against the black has evidently increased, but people choose to be silent about it. If the same crime had been done to a white, then the public and the law would have done their best to win justice.

The social media and the advertising agency contribute to a great extent in favoring the notion of colorism. It is well known that the people would prefer a lighter skin tone than a deeper one and they would try their level best to reduce the tone of their skin color using any artificial means. People tend to follow the social media, their role models and hence in a despair to look fair. There are numerous cosmetic brands and skin lightening industries which came up as a solution to their consumer’s needs. In 1975, the “Fair and Lovely” cream was launched by Hindustan Unilever. This brand added a lot to the theory of colorism. It had become an indispensable requirement in the life of the young girls. It denoted that the deep complexion was not acceptable by the society anymore and how the dark people prove to be a disappointment. Only the fair people could achieve success and lead a happy life. Such fairness cream commercials promote the concept that how fairness is the only means of achieving success, dignity, honor and respect. Such products created an obstacle in the society by differentiating people on their skin tone. There was no actual appreciation of the natural beauty and color anymore. It led to the formation of biasness on the preference on the skin tone and color. Colorism really brings down the level of self-esteem and confidence in life of the people which in turn creates a confined status.

Another Scam in Bhadraloks’ State

In my service days whenever for official purposes visited across the state of West Bengal, I have observed in general people are polite in behaviour and amicable to the guests. Many will offer a cup of tea in an earthen pot in the offices or normal working place with ‘Rosogolla’ and ‘Nimki’ (Snacks salted item prepared with Maida). In Bankura district if one visits, although a lot of poverty can be seen in spite, people with smiling faces welcome the guests. And during lunch along with dal, rice, normal curry and fish curry there will be one time called ‘alu-posto’ (potato with seed of a poppy plant). I always enjoy food in West Bengal.

Anyway, this time observing pool violence (during election and post-election) has very much upset me as I have commonly heard people of West Bengal are known in general as ‘Bhadralok’ (cultured gentleman). The violence has proved that many ‘Bhadralok Babus’ can go at any level of violence i.e. killing, arson, assault etc. irrespective of any political party. And unfortunately women, children and aged persons were not spared during poll and post poll violence. It is pertinent to mention that same time along with few other states assembly elections were held in Assam, a neighbouring state but not a single violence took place in Assam, so “Bhadralokbabus” of West Bengal should learn lesson from the people of Assam.

Then coming to scam we know there are different types of scams that took place in the state of ‘Bhadraloks’. Here are a few points about the scams.

a) The Saradha Group financial scandal was a major financial scam and alleged political scandal caused by the collapse of a Ponzi scheme run by Saradha Group, a consortium of over 200 private companies that was believed to be running collective investment schemes popularly but imperfectly referred to as chit funds in Eastern India. It is evident from the different secondary sources that the Group collected between ₹200 and 300 billion (US$4–6 billion) from more than 1.7 million depositors before it collapsed in April 2013. The West Bengal Government (where the Saradha Group belongs and most of its investors reside) instituted an inquiry commission to investigate the collapse. The State Government also set up a fund of ₹5 billion (US$70 million) to ensure that low-income investors were not bankrupted. It is pertinent to mention that the scam has often been compared to the Sanchayita investment scam, a multi crore rupees scam that took place in West Bengal in the 1970s, complaints related to which led to the formation of the Prize Chits and Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act of 1978 (wikipedia.org/wiki/Saradha).

b) Many Indians know about the Narada sting operation, which was a sting operation carried out by Mathew Samuel. The operation portrayed many of the politicians who are now associated with the present ruling party of West Bengal taking bribes (wikipedia.org/wiki/Narada_sting_operation).

c) The Rose Valley financial scam or simply Rose Valley Chit Fund Scam (rocked West Bengal in 2013) was also a major financial scam caused by the collapse of a Ponzi scheme run by Rose Valley Group. According to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) around Rs 17,520 crore was reportedly raised from investors across India. The all India small depositors association mentioned the amount at Rs 40,000 crore, even though few highlighted total collection was more than Rs 60,000 crore. The states affected by the scam were West Bengal, Assam, Bihar and Tripura (wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_Valley_financial_scandal).

d) The latest fraud is ‘fake vaccination’. One Debanjan Deb used to give NKacin 500 jabs instead of Covid vaccines and many many people were vaccinated across Kolkata. No one could even guess what has been happening. The CID, police and others could not detect anything as such camp was continuing for days together. A fake IAS officer was doing this but an alert by TMC MP Mimi Chakraborty, helped the Police to take action. I simply felt what the local police and CID officials did. The Kolkata Police arrested the scam master Debanjan Deb who opened a vaccination camp at Kasba also across north and central Kolkata, including one at City College in north Kolkata and another on June 3 (2021) at Sonarpur. All the places are in Kolkata or its vicinity.

I feel all the political leaders, administrators, academicians, NGOs and others irrespective of caste, creed, religion, language etc., should be involved in development politics not in narrow politics. The State has awfully suffered in 1947 and again with so many scams people will suffer particularly the helpless and the people who are not involved in the politics. I request ‘Bhadralokbabus’ “Arise! Awake! and stop not until the goal is reached”.

STOP PROCRASTINATING

The Merriam-Webster dictionary utters the word ‘procrastination’ is to put off intentionally and habitually the doing of something that should be done.

If we procrastinate, we keep delaying things we should do until later, often because you do not want to do them. It is the opposite of ‘punctuality’ which means doing something at the agreed or proper time. It is rightly called the ‘thief of time’ because a procrastinator never gets time again to complete his work.

No matter how disciplined and dedicated we are, chances are that we have found ourself spend hours in a slow and usually foolish way on trivial quests like watching TV, updating our Facebook status, shopping online, chatting on WhatsApp when we should have been spending that time on work or school-related projects.

Whether we are rescheduling the start of a venture for work, evading homework assignments, or overlooking household chores, delaying a visit to a doctor for compulsory regular check-up, or postponing an educational video shoot for YouTube, procrastination in each case can have a major impact on our career, our rankings, and our life.

The lost health can be regained by good food and lost wealth by hard work, but lost time, under the shadow of procrastination, is unreturnable.

CAUSES

Procrastination is caused by laziness, delayed action and the illusion of unlimited time in future. There are many men who are lazy by nature. They lack enthusiasm for work. They delay action thinking that today’s work will be done tomorrow. But their tomorrow never comes. The illusion of unlimited time in future is also one of the causes of procrastination. Many men are of the opinion that life is a long span of days, weeks, months and years. So, there is no need of being in haste. Such an opinion about the unlimited time in future encourages them to delay or postpone action.

PROCRASTINATION IS HARMFUL

Procrastination or delayed action and illusion of unlimited time in future ruin a man’s life. His success and progress become uncertain. He loses many good opportunities in life. His work remains unfinished and so the burden of work becomes unbearable. It creates tension in the mind. Postponement of work till another time more often may keep us left without its benefits, which might have accumulated had we done that on time. His life becomes a sequence of sorrow. That is why everyone should try to be punctual which alone can unveil the face of success. The necessity of cultivating punctuality is thus very important in life.

HOW TO OVERCOME

We plan our day in advance, set a priority list on our activities.

Break down the objects on our list into small, controllable steps so that our tasks don’t seem so threatening. We must complete the work and accumulate the confidence.

We must ask ourselves what distracts us the most—whether WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook updates, or something else. We must shut them off quickly, only to open on necessities.

We must be ready for action and start quickly into a workday. By doing something important as early as possible, we will work at a higher level of productivity and efficiency all day long.

Last but not the least, in case we find ourselves procrastinating, we must start chanting,

“DO IT NOW! DO IT NOW! DO IT NOW!”

This ‘dynamic mantra’ will penetrate deep into your subconscious mind where it serves as an activator to get you going and keep you moving.

THE GOLDEN childhood DAYS

The golden days of childhood will never comeback.

The irony is when we are children we want to grow up fast but when we are an adult and we have to make choices, take decisions and bear responsibilities we want to return to our golden childhood days

I say it golden because it so precious and valuable to us when we talk about childhood days we always remember it as our best time in our life.

Do you guys remember how we used to bunk school when it rains ,and how happy we used to feel when the school used to declare holiday on weekdays unexpectedly

I know most of you also tried to fool your mother by saying you have stomachache or fever, so that you can stay at home but in vain they easily catch our tricks. we are the fools to think we can fool our parents.

we used to love when teachers give us free sports period so that we can play, we used to play so many games, playing rock paper scissors ,hand cricket, ice or water, hide and seek.

when we used to win prizes in events conducted by school and we used to do projects, we used to go to trips to museums, zoo and parks.

Especially sharing food in break time and trying different varieties was also memorable.

We feel so elated by thinking that we made a masterpiece by drawing whatever we used to feel and as you guys already for making a masterpiece the paint should be everywhere else except on the paper.

I used to love playing with bubbles, especially playing with balloons, and flying kites on the occasion of sankranthi.

I used to love the time we used to spend playing word games, singing songs in bus while coming home ,and not to forget the card games and board games .Racing with bicycles and skating also used to be my favourite leisure time.

How can we forget all the kinds of snacks like pichu mithai(sugar candy), coconut toffee, biscuits, so many varieties and also the figurines we used to win

Waking up early mornings to watch your favorite cartoon was always so fun, but we used to be always late for school. I know we have got our own priorities first ,hehe

Do you guys still remember how we use to use glitter pens ,sketch pens ,stickers and various types of things to decorate our projects, and the pride we used feel when our drawing or project are displayed on the notice board ,participating in quiz competitions, debates were also fun

Every time we used to think of new stories to write in the exam and end up writing film stories > <

Those days where running even a small errand for mother and bringing back the exact amount was a matter of pride and was always excited to run errands for them unlike. The things which we used to do happily are a hassle now.

I know we are grown ups and we should understand and be more matured about the situations

But its ok to miss those days and bring out our memories into our present. Its ok to enjoy the things that we like and enjoy, age doesn’t matter.

People can still spend some time on themselves, on their own happiness and don’t care about this whole” you are an adult you cant like these thing at your age, you can’t do this at your age”.

Child hood is a phase that everyone goes through and that golden time will never comeback, but we should never forget lessons learnt in our childhood.

The main thing, the essence of our childhood that is the pure happiness we feel from encountering smallest things is our golden time although short but definitely sweet

Thankyou^^ and keep smiling.

agriculture

Agriculture is both art and science of cultivating plants and livestock i.e., growing crops and raising livestock. The cultivated plant and animal products are marketed for people use. Agriculture provides the most of world`s food and fabrics. It also provides leather, wood and paper products also.

Before agriculture, humans were filling their stomach by searching for food here and there, wandering and hunting like every other animals. But 11,500 years ago humans gradually stared learning growing cereals and roots and started to settle down in one place. They also started domestication of animals around 10,000 years ago. according to scholars first domesticated plant was rice or corn. And first domesticated animal would be dog , which helped for hunting. After dogs, sheep, goats, pigs and cattle were also domesticated. first animal domestication was for meat but then gradually usage of milk and fur also started. Oxen were then domesticated for pulling and transportation.

” You know, farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil, and you’re a thousand miles away from the corn field.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower

Agriculture enabled production of large amount of food which may have motivated humans to settle down and shift to agriculture for survival . But scholars think climate change made that shift happen. Production of in large amounts may have introduced the concepts of stocking for future and trading. Barter system, the exchange of products and services arose and this may have promoted growing different products. Wherever the agriculture flourished, humans came in groups and the economy and trade grew, small villages were formed and civilizations happened.

“When tillage begins, other arts follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of human civilization.”
Danial Webster

Development of tools are also one of the things that accelerated the growth of agriculture. Fire is one of the greatest invention and earliest tool used in agriculture. Small equipment like axes of bone, stone, iron, bronze were invented. To store the products, pots and vessels were made. Around 5500 BCE Mesopotamian farmers developed simple irrigation. A not so famous tool called shaduf, was important for irrigation and now also it is used in some parts of the world. Jethro Tull from England invented horse drawn seed drill which helped to replace planting seeds with hands. Cyrus McCormick invented mechanical reapers that helped to modernize grain cutting process.

Now, new inventions of science and technology have revolutionized agriculture. Some of the ancient cultures knew breeding of animals and plants from centuries. Gregor Mendel’s experiments then proved that crops can be improved through implementation of techniques of genetics. Scientific advances of the modern world increased the yield to an another level. introduction of gasoline and electricity and machinery powered by them replaced animals.

Further introduction of chemicals to control pests and protect crops from getting ruined increased the shelf life of the food products. Synthesis of fertilizers with elements that are essential for plants growth like potassium, nitrogen, phosphorus further increased yield. Development of different and new strains by genetic modification lead to the green revolution. Dr. Norman Borlaug is father of green revolution of the world. For India, M. S. Swaminathan, popularly known as father of green revolution, lead to the latter by producing a new strain of wheat.

agriculture is the backbone of any economy. growing population of every region will have basic necessities to be fulfilled and agriculture is holds the power to provide all that. Improvement in agriculture increases food security of the country and hence its prosperity.

#404 Justice not found

Something which scares me most of the time is how unsafe I can be while simply walking on the road, how long can I ignore those stares and snarky comments passed around the way. If I am asked what I would do a day without men, all I would name are the simplest pleasures a man has in his life. Walking around in clothes of my choice, taking midnight strolls and speak my mind out without being judged. I do not hold a battle against all men, because not all men are the same. I wouldn’t want to simply stereotype the whole gender for the mistakes of a few but what I would want is a safe place where men can understand and feel what it is to be like a woman. To understand how helpless, she would in broad daylight and dark nights by herself, because then for once men will not be men for having power over women, men would be men who see women as an equal.

The rape culture has been so normalized that we have all forgotten how toxic of a society are we living in now. People mostly men and women belonging to village areas still consider that rape happens with the consent of the girl and most importantly they do not know the meaning of the word consent and how much important it is in a relationship. Education should begin from the roots, especially in villages from where most of the population migrate in search of work to cities. Spreading awareness of how important it is to be equal as a man is so much important. Every time someone put up a story or a status with hashtags, can we only do this much for justice. These days ensuring justice for rapists has made the lady of wisdom blinded. Rapists roam around in the streets while the victims and their family live with humility, it leads me to question the sanity of society. India was a country built upon so many values which can no longer be found. #404 Justice not found

works of Robert Browning

Robert Browning (1812-89)

Browning’s first notable poem is the extremely subjective Pauline published in 1833 is highly Shelleyan. Paracelsus was published in 1835 was the story of the hero’s unquenchable thirst for knowledge which is beyond the grasp of one single man. This poem brings forth Browning’s predominant idea that a life without love is a failure. The poetic style is diffuse, but the verse contains passages of great beauty with one or two charming lyrics. His next work was the play Strafford (1837) he achieves real pathos towards the close. Sordello (1840) was an attempt to decide the relationship between art and life and was Browning’s most obscure work. The poem has a detailed historical allusion and occasional passages of descriptive beauty is too compressed.

About eight volumes of his work from 1841 onward are collected in Bells and Pomegrates, published in 1846. Apart from poems, the collection included plays like Pippa Passes, King Victor and King Charles, The Returns of the Druses, A Bolt on the Scutcheon, Colomb’s Birthday. Pippa Passes contains some dramatic situations and charming songs but it is Dramatic Lyrics, Dramatic Romances, Men and Women and Dramatis Personae that we begin to see the real Browning. In these volumes we see that Browning has started experimenting with the genre of poetry in which his genius found expression- the dramatic monologue.

Browning was deeply interested in the human psyche, particularly in its unusual forms. My Last Duchess is about the abnormally possessive Duke who liquidates his wife because he bestowed smiles on everyone. In Porphyria’s Lover, the lover kills Porphyria in order to eternize the moment when she is completely his. Browning’s themes divide themselves broadly into three groups- philosophical or religious, love and lighter themes as it can be seen in The Pied Piper of Hamelin. Browning’s style of work has been subject of endless discussion because of the fascinating problems it presents. When it comes to descriptive power Browning differs from that of Tennyson’s, who slowly creates a lovely image by careful massing of details while Browning cares less for beauty of description for its own sake. He gained slow recognition but like Wordsworth and wrote too freely and often very carelessly and perversely. Fame of Browning rests on four volumes, published between 1842 and 1864.

Browning’s works were not concerned with Victorian life. He did not try to know Victorian England he was more drawn towards Renaissance Italy. He is a master of a surprising variety of metrical forms and excels in the manipulation of rhythmic effects. He has an assured place among the great English poets by virtue of his distinctive dramatic monologues and his charming love poems.
