Education - A Weapon

“ Education is the key to unlocking the world, passport to freedom”                                                     Oprah Winfrey What separates humans from animals is the ability of humans to write, read, learn and teach . This centuries-old accrued knowledge is called “ education ”, which makes humans the smartest creatures on the planet earth.  The basic measurement for education is called the rate of ‘literacy’. The global adult literacy rate is 86%. 75%of the world’s illiterate population lives in South Asia,West Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. Women account for two -  third so fall the illiterate adults of the world.The literacy rate of India is 77.7%(2017-18). In  the modern world, the meaning of ‘education’ is structured knowledge of our society in various disciplines – history, mathematics, polity, economics, various...

FARMERs' NEED

On the 29th death anniversary of our ex Prime minister Rajiv Gandhi, the Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel  launched a new scheme for the welfare of farmers i.e.  Rajiv Gandhi kisan yonana 
Which will supplement the income of land owing farmers by rs. 10000 to 13000 per acre.
This scheme will help approx 18 lakh farmers producing Rice, Maize, etc.
Many schemes like this are run by the state government as well as the central government, like Pm kisan' scheme  which provides rs.6 lakhs to families owing land less rhan 5 acres.
Need of the hour 
Though farmerd are being benefited by these schemes but it is not reaching the ground level. Most of the farmers are landless or have not enough resources. So either they work on other's land  and earn wages or take other's  land on rent as tenant and cultivate on it.
As they have to pay a portion of their wages to the landlord, so they work hard to earn more wages. In the time of global pestilence, we have to thankful of farmers, and also we are lucky that we have accessibility, availability and affordability of food unlike  USA where a situation of famine is on the brink, they are standing in a queue for food..
Measures can be taken 
1. Centre should launch scheme for landless farmers and workers 
2. Government should announce the minimum support price (MSP) of the upcoming season. 
3. There should be proper and necessary schemes for the welfare of farmers.
There is lots of scheme but implementation of these schemes is a very difficult things so I suggest government should focus on the implementation of it...for the better future.

"A stich in time saves nine"

The farmers' associations from the nearby states abutting the border of the capital city,Delhi, have hunkered down near the Delhi border in a hope of getting their fears and uncertainties satiated and alleviated related to the new farm bill passed hastily by the centre. The farm law that existed prior to the centre's amending it had many loopholes that were going against the progress and development of the agriculture sector. The intention of the centre might be healthy but the way it has  dealt with it ,  made it face opposition from the farmers across the country due to the centre's lacking in addressing the misconceptions related to it that had lead to developing a sense of fear and precarity in the minds of the farmers that are undoubtedly the backbone of our Indian economy which at this juncture is battered due to ongoing Covid - 19 pandemic. To be breathe in new life to the agricultural sector and ultimately making the farmers self supportive who throughout these year...

SOCIAL MEDIA

  "Connectivity is a human right"... With a gigantic user base and a ubiquitous existence, the social media has become an inseparable part of the fabric of the Indian society. It has transformed the way we communicate in the online world. Ultra-fast internet connectivity, cheap data plans and universal access to smartphones for our youth have impacted Indian society in a unique way. As we know everything has its pros and cons, social media also have. Like a double-edged sword, social media is a boon for the democracy and business, on the other hand fake news, privacy concerns and online frauds tell a different tale. "Whoever controls the media, controls the mind..." Social media have empowered the users to voice their concerns against injustice and inequality as evident from the " Anna movement " to the campaigns like " Meetoo " and rights for "LGBT" and same-sex marriages. On the other hand, fake news has induced violent activities aga...

REALITY CHECK

As we all know the whole world is dealing with the pandemic..but in this dire strait our respected PM Mr.  N arendra Modi is dealing with this very well. No PM has had to face such a situation that has impacted every part of India and every aspect of life. If a family member is seriously ill we get shaken. Here, his 130 crore people are at risk. Some are saying lockdown should’ve been earlier. Some are saying Army should’ve been called. Some are saying intelligence failure while some say you appease. Everyone has retrospective opinions but NONE has to bear the responsibility of 130 cr people, Only he has to.. If the lockdown doesn’t succeed then he gets targeted. If it does, still he gets targeted because the economy is hit. If he didn’t call for a lockdown then he would’ve been hounded for lethargy even if it had kept the economy going. He is always at the receiving end. You call for a nation of 130 cr to stop work. For the poor to risk going without food. The rich cry their earni...
