Classical Economics

Classical economics relates to the school of thought of economics that originated in Britain during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The classical economists believed in the existence of full employment in the economy. It is believed that ‘The Wealth of Nations’ by Adam Smith published in 1776 marked the beginning of classical economics. J.B. Say, Alfred Marshall, A.C. Pigou are some of the famous classical economists.
This school of economics focused on the theory called the ‘invisible hand‘ being the highlight at the beginning stages of domestic and international supply and demand. They assumed the economy to be laissez faire capitalist. It was a closed economy with no foreign trade. Labour was a homogenous and wages were flexible. It assumed the economy to be in the long run.

The Classical school of thought is based on the Law of Markets given by J.B. Say. According to that law “supply creates it’s own demand“. Therefore there can never be the problem of overproduction or unemployment in the economy as whatever is produced is consumed. Unemployment may occur only in the short run and in the long run, economy tends towards full employment.
The Classical economists also believed in wage price flexibility. This concept was given by A.C. Pigou. It was basically the formulation of Say’s Law in terms of labour market. According to this, whenever there is unemployment in the economy, a general cut in money wages will restore full employment condition. Unemployment is a consequence of the rigid wage structure.
They also believed in the existence of equilibrium in the goods market. It is achieved when savings is equal to investment. This equality is usually brought by the mechanism of interest rate. Similarly, the money market is in equilibrium when the demand for money is equal to the supply of money. This concept was explained in the Quantity Theory of Money.

The Fall of Classical Economics:

During the time of The Great Depression i.e. 1929-1930’s, the classical theory failed to be applicable. It failed to solve the problem of depression that plagued for about 43 months. Keynes criticized the classical theory on several grounds.
First and foremost was the classical assumption of full employment equilibrium. Keynes considered it as unrealistic and argued that the situation in the capitalist economy is underemployment and full employment is a special case. He refuted Say’s law of market and stated that it was demand that created supply. He was also against the idea of laissez faire. He believed that self adjustment was not possible in a capitalist system and this was responsible for the Great Depression. He advocated state intervention within the economy through monetary and fiscal measures.
The wage price flexibility was also heavily criticised. In the modern world, where workers have trade unions, any cuts in wages will lead to strikes and industrial unrest. Keynes also stressed that equality between savings and investment was not brought by rate of interest but instead by the level of income and marginal efficiency of capital.
Lastly, the long run analysis of Classical economy was refuted on the grounds of inapplicability. Since it operated in the long run, it is incapable of solving present day economic problems.

The Choice Factor

That brisk strut with billowing robes behind. That almost sneering smirk under his hooked nose. That voice lashes out at people in the most subtle way possible. That is Severus Tobias Snape, Potion Master at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizarding, the dour ’bat’ of the dungeons. But my hero-worship for this misunderstood man has made me reflect on one of the important lessons for life-The Choice Factor.

Although Snape’s passion for the Dark Arts and the Dark Mark on his arm, along with his air of intimidation and sharp tongue attributes to his ‘villain’ aura, the choices that he made speak differently about his true character. The choices that he made say it all. It is not so surprising how similarly Snape and Voldemort are portrayed throughout the series. Both men had strikingly similar parentage; with muggle fathers and pureblood mothers and a miserable childhood. They also shared a common passion for the Dark Arts and even went on to pursue the same goals as adults, with Snape joining Voldemort’s Death Eaters in their ironic quest to establish a pureblood society.

Snape’s core differs immensely from his exterior. Real character is ultimately determined by one’s core traits, not by surface actions or attitudes. When Snape realized that the woman he loved was in danger, his alliance shifted for good and he became a spy for the Light. This was where he strayed from the path that Voldemort had taken and he had been tentatively travelling on; He chose Love over Power, Light over Dark, and Good over Evil. He thereon became one of the most critical parts of Dumbledore’s master plan to bring down Voldemort. His love for Lily Evans enabled him to see clearly through the dangerous path he was treading on, which gave the entire anti-Voldemort movement an edge over their enemies, even at the cost of his own life.

Thus we can say that Snape’s choices throughout his life redeem his character at the end of the series. The converse can also be true, as it takes a strong character and spirit to take such important decisions in life.

Choices define who we are as a person; it shows our character to the world. To enhance the probability of making better choices and surviving bad ones, personal character and inner spirit play important roles. Essentially, there is a thin line dividing any two paths or choices in life. We need to turn the thin line into a sturdy barrier. We need our consciousness and discriminating sense create these barriers to keep us centered on making better choices. Now, no one is perfect; we all make mistakes or bad choices. But how we handle the adversity, again lies in one’s willpower and character.

Choices define who we are as a person; it shows our character to the world.

Next time when you make a choice try asking these questions to yourselves:

1. What type of person do I want to be?

2. How can I be a better person by making a particular choice?

Below is a quote from a poem that has influenced me a lot. I leave you to ponder upon its meaning, at your own choice, Of course!

“Two roads diverged in a wood and I- I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference.”

The Road Not Taken By Robert Frost

 

RESTORATION COMEDY

The Puritan experiment in government did not long survive and after Cromwell’s death in 1658, and in May 1660 Charles II was restored to the throne of English. The reaction against Puritan manners and morals was inevitable. It gained force from the fact that many of the returned Cavaliers had spent their exile in France and become expert in French wit and French gallantry, and also because Charles II himself encouraged an atmosphere of hedonistic liveliness at Court. Charles set the tone for the Court Wits, who in turn set the tone for the comic plays of the period. Restoration comedy, therefore, represented the stylization of a deliberately cultivated upper-class ethos.

The first accomplished Restoration comedy of Manners was Sir George Etherege. His first play, The Comical Revenge, or Love in Tub, was performed in 1664. The comic plot of the play provided enough opportunity to the author to showcase his remarkable capacity in handling the wit-combats and shows of sophistication that the age loved. His next play, She Would if She Could(1668), explores the usual Restoration battle between male and female prudence with admirable skill. The tone, though sarcastic, is never brutal and the conclusion establishes a satisfactory balance between wit and virtue. The Man of Mode, or, Sir Fopling Flutter(1676) was his last and most brilliant comedy. The play is more purely amoral and the treatment of Dorimant, the hero, of his various women would be brutal if related to any other world than one in which the relation between the sexes was purely a matter of finding the between lust and self-interest.

William Wycherley produced hid four comedies between 1671 and 1676, of which the last two, The Country Wife and The Plain Dealer, were by far the most interesting. Unlike Etherege, his plays clearly display that he never could completely accept the Restoration standards. The Plain Dealer conveys a general outrage about human nature and society as a whole. The contrast between public pretension and private reality is treated in Wycherley with much humour and wit. The real interest of the plot lies in the exposure of Olivia, who turns out to be a selfish and cruel human being under her prudish exterior. The Country Wife is a more coherent and polished play. The play’s name derives from the effort of Mr. Pinchwife to keep his country wife away from the gallants of the town. The jealous husband is of course ridiculed and gulled, but this does not make the behaviour of his wife in any degree acceptable. She starts of being a simpleton and ends up becoming a nasty animal.

John Dryden produced some comedy of manners during the period, but his real reputation was established in other forms of literature. Dryden’s The Wild Gallant, The Rival Ladies, Secret Love, and Sir Martin Mar-all have features of Restoration Comedy of Manners but not the poise or beauty of the best of Etherege or Congreve. His best contribution to the genre is Marriage a la Mode (1672), where the main plot humourously explores the Restoration explores the Restoration attitude to sex, marriage and honour.

The real master of the form, according to Dryden himself, was Congreve. Not all Congreve’s comedies are, however, in the true Restoration mode. Both The Old Bachelor (1693) and Love for Love (1695) combined farce, satire and Johnsonian humour along with the Restoration spirit in its delineation. The scene in Love for Love, where Mr. Tattle teaches Prue, the country girl, the importance of saying one thing and doing another illustrates the contrast between public relation and private behaviour that forms the core of many Restoration wit-combats.

The Way of the World (1700) was Congreve’s last and finest comedy. The plot contains many of the stock devices of Restoration comedy- the witty pair of lovers, the amorous widow, the would-be-wit, intrigues and adulteries- the tone is quite different from that of Etherege or Wycherley. It is half amused, half sad; the comic atmosphere is pervaded with the realization of the ironies and ambiguities of life. The complexity of human relationships, generally glossed over in Restoration comedy, is here presented in insightful detail.

The comedies of Sir John Vanbrugh and George Farquhar reflect a movement away from the general spirit of Restoration comedy. Restoration comedy proper is thus, thought to begin with Etherege and reach its high- point with Congreve. Jeremy Collier’s Short View of the Immorality and Profaneness of the English Stage (1698) showed the changing demands of the society and although it did not immediately kill comedy of Manners, it definitely reflected a changing public attitude. Colley Cibber was already developing a more sentimental bourgeois comedy in 1690s and the heyday of the ideal social world of the Court Wits of the reign of Charles II was all but over.

Drone Strike At Jammu Air Base

Explosives-laden drones were used to carry out an attack on the Jammu Air Force station on Sunday

New Delhi: 

The drone strikes in Jammu airbase were an act of terror that was aimed at targeting key military assets, Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria said today, adding that the Indian Air Force is in the process of bolstering its capabilities to deal with such security challenges.

The Chief of Air Staff said the IAF has carried out a detailed analysis in terms of implications of drones and other similar capabilities falling into the hands of non-state actors, and taking a series of measures to counter them.

The Chief of Air Staff said a detailed investigation into the attacks was underway and that all sets of measures would be on the table based on the findings of the probe.

“We have gone over the subject in terms of the implications of this kind of capabilities in the hands of non-state actors and the kind of effect the armed drone capabilities would have in future conflicts,” Air Chief Marshal Bhadauria said.

He said the IAF analysed a large extent the requirements in terms of planning and required systems and infrastructure to enhance its abilities to go for “soft kill” and to have a counter-drone system.

Referring to the attacks, he said there was no visibility when the incident took place. “Very soon we will have enough systems and we will target.. we will find ways to tackle this threat,” the Air Chief Marshal said.

Indian Cinema After Independence

After independence, cinema became a vehicle for addressing social ills. Bollywood portrayed a society which was both desired and achievable. In the golden era of Bollywood films, from the 1950s to the late 1970s, an India which was rural but had vibrant and rich traditions was portrayed. Films show cased the relationships, customs, norms and ethics of Indian society.

“Kaagaz ke phool”, “Mother India”, “Pakeezah”, “Half Ticket” or “Padosan” are just a few titles from this golden era of Bollywood film making.”

But then came the 1980s, and the ” action era”. The Bollywood heroine lost her strength and space to her hero. Now as globalisation has taken hold, Indian cinema is becoming increasingly influenced by Western cinema.

The Indian Cinema Industry has changed significantly since 1947. Indian films are now competing on the world stage with western productions. Indian cinema portrays the essence of Indian society. The ethnic and traditional value of the Indian society, it’s cultural diversity and above all, the unty among the varied cultural and religious sects is highlighted by Indian cinema.

Some important films from the era that come to mind are “Andaz(1949)”, “Mother India(1957)”. These films are true to India’s first prime minister Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru’s ideals of modern India- developing cities, roads, dams, bridges, doctors, and engineers, being the emblem of modernity. This trend continues as Hindi cinema never failed to capture the nerve of the important historical events in post-colonial India.

The 1930s

Caste and religion based connotations are plenty; and these icons are understood to be the representations of a great cultural Indian past that need to be maintained.

“That day in 1931, on seeing the word ‘Swaraj’ in the title of Shantaram’s film Svarajyache Toran (Thunder of the Hills) and the poster of the film depicting Chhatrapati Shivaji hoisting a flag, the Head of the British Indian censor flew into a rage.”

“The most significant film made around that little-known saga was – Shatranj ke Khiladi (1977) by Satyajit Ray with Tom Alter (whose Urdu was as fluent as the Queen’s English) playing General Weston and Richard Attenborough as General Outram.”

As the Indian economy gradually opened up to the world, the Hindi cinema started catering to the growing influence of the Indian diaspora. Wel one stark difference is that the majority of the nationalistic films made today tend to embrace an extreme form of patriotism that can best be described as “jingoistic” in nature.

“Poet and film maker Gulzar plays Suneel, an Indian student studying in England, and as a part of the freedom movement, he delivers speeches on the campus. The commercial blockbuster Kranti (1981) claimed to be based on a true story of a freedom struggle between 1825-1875 but did not specify which one. “

“Another ‘faction’ 1942 A Love Story (1994) was a fine balance between one of bright romance and a nationalistic plot to assassinate the tyrant General Douglas. But the tail piece of the film succumbed to the stock make-believe variety.”

Understanding Luminous Pollution.

 

Many of us are taking steps to reduce carbon footprints. We responsibly recycle glass, metal, paper, plastic waste each week. However, unknowingly we are contributing to carbon emissions through light pollution which intrudes the delicate ecosystem. Light pollution in many countries is neglected and not regulated. 

The excessive, misdirected, or unnecessary use of artificial outdoor lighting is known as Light pollution a.k.a Luminous pollution, or Photopollution. Light pollution alters the color and contrast of the nighttime sky, natural starlight, and disrupts the circadian rhythms, which affects the environment, inhabitants, and astronomy research.

As countries are developing, the need for artificial outdoor lighting has also increased and light pollution has spread into suburban and rural areas. 

Types of light pollution:-

1) Light Trespass

2) Glare

3) Sky Glow

4) Light Clutter

What are the causes of light pollution?

Poorly designed residential, commercial and industrial lights contribute significantly to luminous pollution. Also, the use of unnecessary outdoor artificial lights contributes to luminous pollution. Approximately about 30℅ of light is wasted due to poorly designed artificial outdoor lights. 

Let’s have a look at the effects of light pollution.

As mentioned above, light pollution has effects on our environment and its inhabitants, and also on astrology. Mentioned below are some of the known effects of light pollution:-

Effect on the environment:                Excessive nighttime lighting releases more than 12 million tons of carbon dioxide every year into the atmosphere, which would take around 702 million trees to absorb. 

Luminous pollution also increases air pollution by resisting a natural occurring radical that cleans the air at night, called Nitrate radical. 

Effect on wildlife:                                    Light pollution can alter the feeding, mating, sleeping, and migration cycles of the entire wildlife. Wildlife can also feel the disorientation of time due to excessive light pollution.

Effect on energy:                            According to a study by IDA( International Dark-Sky Association) in 2007,  it is estimated that about 30% of the light emitted by public outdoor light fixtures is wasted, which equals 22 TWh/year of energy wastage. That is equivalent to the following:

★About 3.6 million tons of coal per year.

★ About 12.9 million barrels of oil per year.

Effect on Astronomy:            Astronomers are most affected by luminous pollution. As it makes it harder to view and find extraterrestrial bodies for the astronomers even with the aid of a telescope.

Effect on Humans:                                  Like plants and animals, humans are also regulated by circadian rhythms. The rhythms respond to the light and darkness around any organism, which when altered can result in various health hazards like sleeping disorders, depression, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease, obesity, etc.

How to prevent light pollution?

Given below are some ways to prevent light pollution:-

I) By using warm white lightning as it scatters less.

II) By using shielded outdoor light fixtures.

III) By picking the right exterior light fixtures with the right cutoff angle, which prevents light from escaping above the horizontal plane.

IV) By using motion sensor outdoor fixtures.

V) By using IDA-certified light fixtures. 

What is the present status of online journalism in India?

Digital journalism is different from traditional journalism. It is recognized to as being a form of journalism content being posted on the internet. It is in text, audio, video, it does not have any print attribute. It is undeniably much faster than traditional journalism which happens to be the most important reason for its rapid growth presently.

A cup of tea in the morning with the newspaper is the conventional to start mornings in India. But, since the past few years the romance of newspaper may soon be a nostalgic memory. The rapid growth of in mobile internet has coincided with the growth of online journalism as well. Today, there are nearly 500 Million users of the internet. With low-cost devices and better 3G/4G network being offered to the citizens the traditional journalism is slowly giving way to digital journalism.

Mobile applications like Inshorts, TOI (the times of India) mobile app, Quint, Jio News are producing internet content at a very fast pace. They give real time news in no time, which contributes in setting it apart from traditional journalism. Considering that we all have a busy life and don’t necessarily have the time to read a newspaper on a daily basis brevity plays a vital role in our lives today. A print journalist produces an in-depth article, whereas the news content is consumed on a five-inch mobile screen now a days. It is an interactive medium where the reaction and the response of the audience is also quick. Digital journalism is more of analysis than reporting.

There are many loopholes that comes with this as well, often online journalists are in a hurry to publish the news which sometimes overtakes the need to get it right. Anyone can change anything on an online media platform, which leads to less accountability. While the newspapers have the that luxury of time to verify before putting it out.

At the end, though it has a number of loopholes it continues to create an innovation in journalism and also is trying to overtake the position of traditional media. While a striking a balance between transparency, privacy, brevity, accountability, using the technology and data, is what will set apart a news organisation in the new age. 

ARE THE BOYS AT FAULT?

WHENEVER A TOPIC ON GENDER OR DISCRIMINATION ARISES, ALL THE ARROWS GET POINTED TOWARDS THE BOYS. THEY ARE CRITISIZED, QUESTIONED AND GET A LOT OF HATE.

I BEING A GIRL , HAVE BEEN BROUGHT UP IN A FAMILY WHEREIN MY BROTHERS AND I ARE PUT AT AN EQUAL LEVEL, WE GET THE SAME OPPORTUNITIES, WE GET THE SAME STATUS. BUT IN SOME FAMILIES, THE SCENE IS ABSOLUTELY DIFFERENT. THE FAMILIES CREATE THE DIVIDE ALL BY THEMSELVES, BRING UP THEIR SONS AND DAUGHTERS IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF INEQUALITY AND GAP. THEN HOW CAN WE PUT THE WHOLE BLAME ON THE BOYS?

TO BOYS, THIS DID NOT COME NATURALLY. THEY WERE MADE TO LEARN THIS. THEY WERE MADE TO CONSIDER THEMSELVES AS SUPERIOR. THEN HOW CAN WE BLAME THE BOYS?

THE FAMILIES WHO RAISE CHILDREN WHO BELIEVE IN INEQUALITY ARE AT FAULT. THE MOTHERS WHO MAKE THEIR DAUGHTERS BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE INFERIOR ARE AT FAULT. THE FATHERS WHO CONSIDER THEIR DAUGHTERS TO BE A BURDEN ARE AT FAULT. THE PARENTS WHO CONSIDER THEIR BOYS TO BE AN ASSET AND GIRLS TO BE A LIABILITY ARE AT FAULT.

WE DO WHAT WE ARE TAUGHT. WE BELIEVE IN WHAT WE ARE TOLD. WE ACCEPT WHAT WE SEE.

THOSE WHO HAVE SUCH MENTALITY WONT BE ABLE TO CHANGE IT INSTANTLY. BUT FOR US ; WHO CAN UNDERSTAND THE ILL-EFFECTS OF THE DIFFERENCE/ DISCRIMINATION ; CAN MAKE OUR YOUNGER GENERATION UNDERSTAND THIS.

LET US STOP THE BLAME GAME AND LOOK FORWARD TO CREATE A WORLD WHERE THERE WOULD NOT BE SENTENCES LIKE ‘GIRL CHILD IS A BUDEN’, ‘ ARE YOU A GIRL? IF NOT, THEN WHY ARE YOU CRYING’ , ‘BOYS ARE SUPERIOR’ AND ‘ YOUR ARE THE MAN/ WOMEN OF THE FAMILY.

Brazil vs Peru (COPA AMERICA SEMIS) Preview

Team News & Tactics

Brazil

The absence of Gabriel Jesus does not bode well for a Brazil team that might lack productivity going forward. Nevertheless, Tite has no option but to replace him, with Lucas Paqueta likely to come in, having scored the winner in the quarter-final against Chile.

Paqueta should operate in the number ten position, allowing Neymar and Richarlison to play out wide. The Brazil attack will be spearheaded by Neymar, even though Roberto Firmino is likely to operate in the number nine position.

Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Ederson; Danilo, Silva, Marquinhos, Lodi; Fred, Casemiro; Richarlison, Paqueta, Neymar; Firmino

Peru

While Brazil misses Gabriel Jesus, Peru will have to make do without their key frontman Andre Carrillo following his dismissal in the quarter-final. His absence at right-wing should give Alex Valera an opportunity to impress.http://assets.vlitag.com/plugins/safeframe/src/html/r.htmlAd by Valueimpression

The 27-year-old is expected to form Peru’s creative trifecta alongside Sergio Pena and Christian Cueva as they look to provide the supply for top-scorer Gianluca Lapadula. Santiago Ormeno is a potential alternative for Lapadula or even Valera, while Raziel Garcia is another option.

Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Gallese; Corzo, Santamaria, Ramos, Trauco; Yotun, Tapia; Valera, Pena, Cueva; Lapadula

Prediction

Brazil 2-0 Peru

After stumbling to a 4-0 defeat in the group stages, Peru are expected to provide a much more resilient display on Monday, knowing what’s at stake. However, without their key frontman Andre Carrillo, they might struggle to breach the star-studded Brazilian defence that showcased excellent solidity in the quarter-final affair against Chile.

Agriculture

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

— Daniel Webster

Introduction

It all started thousand of years ago , when the human civilization came into existence . Agriculture was a key to survival . People were farming for there domestic purpose , not for the others .

As the civilization started to grow accustomed of agriculture , they grew food in surplus that enabled people to live in cities. Plants were independently cultivated in at least 11 regions of the world.

The development of agriculture enabled the human population to grow many times larger than could be sustained by hunting and gathering.

It was the beginning of different civilization in different parts of the World. From those civilizations , one of them was our’s The Indus Valley Civilization . Vedic literature provides some of the earliest written record of agriculture in India. Rigveda hymns , describes plowing, fallowing, irrigation, fruit and vegetable cultivation.

Some of the ancient and historical evidence suggests rice and cotton were cultivated in the Indus Valley.

Agriculture : In India and World today .

India ranks second worldwide in farm outputs. As per 2018, agriculture employed Indian work force and contributed 17–18% to country’s GDP.

In 2016, agriculture and allied sectors like animal husbandry, forestry and fisheries accounted for 15.4% of the GDP (gross domestic product) with about 41.49% of the workforce in 2020.India ranks first in the world with highest net cropped area followed by US and China.The total agriculture commodities export was US $ 3.50 billion in March – June 2020.

Agriculture is the primary source of livelihood for about 58% of India’s population. Share of agriculture and allied sectors in gross value added (GVA) of India at current prices stood at 17.8 % in FY20.

During 2019-20 crop year, food grain production reached a record of 296.65 million tonnes. In 2020-21, Government of India is targeting food grain production of 298 million tonnes.

India is among the 15 leading exporters of agricultural products in the world. Agricultural export from India reached US$ 38.54 billion in FY19 and US$ 35.09 billion in FY20.

Agriculture is an important industry in the United States. The agriculture industry, which includes both crops and livestock, is responsible for producing most of the world’s foods and fabrics. Agriculture impacts so many things that it’s hard to imagine a world without this important industry.

Schemes and Initiatives

Due to the high requirement of agriculture . It is important for the government to take initiatives and provide better infrastructure to the farmers. However , the required level of investment for the development of marketing, storage and cold storage infrastructure is estimated to be huge.

The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), established in 1905, was responsible for the search leading to the “Indian Green Revolution” of the 1970s. The Union Minister of Agriculture is the president of the ICAR. The Indian Agricultural Statistics Research Institute develops new techniques for the design of agricultural experiments, analyses data in agriculture, and specialises in statistical techniques for animal and plant breeding.

Schemes by government for Indian agriculture :

  • Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme.
  • Rainfed Area Development Programme (RADP)
  • Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY)
  • Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY)
  • National Agriculture Market (e-NAM)
  • Pradhan Mantri Kisan Maandhan yojana.
  • Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY)
  • Kisan Credit Card (KCC) scheme.
  • Pashu Kisan Credit Card Scheme.
  • PM-Kisan Scheme.

Conclusion

Agriculture sector is one of the prominent sector in India as well as all over the world . India is becoming self – sufficient in pulses and other crops .

Gone are the days , when India was unable to provide sufficient amount of food to the citizens . Gone are the days , when people used to think agriculture was not as important as other sectors . Gone are the days , when people used to think less of farmers . And gone are the days , when people were less educated about agriculture.

Farming is a profession of hope.

IS GIRL CHILD A BURDEN ?

TO A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD, GIRL CHILD IS CONSIDERED TO BE A BURDEN. EDUCATING A GIRL IS BELIEVED TO BE OF NO USE AS, PEOPLE THINK THAT ULTIMATE GOAL OF A WOMEN IS TO WORK FOR HER FAMILY AND DO THE HOUSEHOLD CHORES.

YOUNG GIRLS ARE WEDDED OFF AT A VERY YOUNG AGE AND THIS TOO BECOMES AN ACHIEVEMENT FOR A ;LOT OF PEOPLE. HEAVY DOWRY IS DEMANDED FROM GIRL’S FATHER , AS IT ASSUMED THAT THE GROOM’S FAMILY IS TAKING OVER THE BURDEN OF THE BRIDE’S FAMILY BY GETTING THEIR SON MARRIED HIS DAUGHTER.

IN THE PAST, IN MANY VILLAGES, IF A GIRL WAS CHILD BORN, SHE WAS KILLED OR WAS DISOWNED. IN A COUNTRY WHERE WE OFFER PRAYER’S TO GODDESSES, THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOUR TOWARDS A GIRL CHILD IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE.

WOMEN’S ARE RAISED TO BE AN “ADARSHWAADI AND SANSKAARI” { RESPECTFUL , OBEDIENT AND KIND } WIFE. THEY ARE TAUGHT THAT THEIR GOAL IS TO NURTURE CHILDREN AND WORK LIKE A SLAVE TO THEIR HUSBANDS. THEY ARE TAUGHT TO SPEAK LESS AND OBEY THE WORDS OF HER IN-LAWS. THEY ARE CONSIDERED TO BE LESS ABLED THAN BOYS. THEY ARE SHOWCASED AS WEAK AND FRAGILE.THEY ARE CAGED AND ARE MADE TO CONFINE IN THEIR HOMES. THEY ARE NOT OFFERED ENOUGH OPPORTUNITIES, THEN WHY ARE THEY UNDERESTIMATED?

IN TODAY’S TIME, WOMEN ARE WORKING IN PACE WITH THE MAN. THEY ARE TAKING CARE OF THEIR FAMILIES BETTER THAN THE MAN.

WHY CONSIDER THEM TO BE A BURDEN ? WHY NOT GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHOWCASE THEIR STRENGTH ?WHY? BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT SHE IS MUCH MORE ABLED THAN YOUR BOYS? THESE QUESTIONS MIGHT SEEM QUITE ROUGH BUT ANSWER TO THESE WOULD CLEAR AS TO WHY ARE THE GIRLS CONSIDERED TO BE A BURDEN.

SHE IS NOT A BURDEN. SHE IS AN ASSET. LET HER LIVE HER LIFE ON HER OWN TERMS. LET HER LIVE. LET HER FLY, CAUSE SHE HAS THE ABILITY TO REACH THE SKY.

Hello guys!!

Today I am going to give you guys an insight about a very hot and trending topic “The kaleshwaram project”.

This project is a multi purpose irrigation project on the Godavari river in kaleshwaram in Telangana state.

It’s main purpose is irrigation to crops,supplying power and water. It is constructed to overcome the famine conditions.

From Times of India

It’s construction began in 2016 and approximately 1.2 lakh crores were spend in the construction of this Although inaugurated the project is no where near completion.

From The Hans India

This project has at is own fair share of disadvantages too.

This project will displace at least 30,000 people in 19 villages.

It will affect land of about 1 lakh acres (40,015 hectares).

Considering all other costs, this project will be a major burden on the people of the state and farmers for generations to come

From Deccan Chronicle

The result is yet to be known whether the project is a success or not ,but if the result is good then the sacrifices that were done to built the project will not go to waste.

The amount of time, money, and labour spending on this project will never comeback so whether it will live up to the expectation of people or not is the question that is yet to be answered.

Thankyou^^.
