MY PASSION

                                            Every state has heroes whose work motivates us in contributing our best for the society and the Nation as a whole. Let me cite an example of patriotism that one finds in   the state of   Maharashtra regarding Shivaji Maharaj. Nationalistic approach in Maharashtra is much higher in many cases, but how that happened? It is due to the fact that a patriotic factor called shivaji worked there. Shivaji has entered everyone’s brain and it has been able to influence people from different works of life. Process of knowing Shivaji starts from KG level classes, where only the picture of Shivaji is given and below that his name is written, then in the next class students come to know about his birth date and year. Students after that come to know about his parents and childhood. Gradually one after another class, students come to kn...

  Story telling is the best way to infuse good morale and rational thinking among the kids. Grandmother's story which used to find a wonderful place in our life, now is gradually going out of our life. Even the inspirational stories from comics like Amar Chitra Khata have been replaced by cartoons. Our kids remained glued to the  Television to see those cartoons which have the messages and culture of other countries and in reality they find themselves in different world. Stories of our Heroes in different spheres, who helped a lot in shaping this nation need to be studied, may be in the form of story books, comics, cartoons but the best always remained among non formal education is the grandmother storytelling, which can also be practised by other members of the family. Emotional development forms one of the important tools in grooming our children. Stories forms gateway in opening our senses and restoring our own values and help the children to develop concern for others. ...

  “Let India arise….Let her arise from the peasants’ cottage, grasping the plough ; out of the hut of fisherman, the cobbler and the sweeper. Let her spring from the grosser’s  shop, from beside the oven of fitter seller. Let her emanate from the factory, from marts, from the markets. Let her emerge from grooves and forest, from hills and mountains”. Development of any nation or regions depends upon the upliftment of masses mainly the poor, downtrodden labourers etc. Nation’s development cannot be determined with the development of counted few. If the light of development is received by the remotest areas and they are successful successful in contributing their share in India’s share in India’s growth then definitely we can say we are marching towards development. Dream India comes from the people, resource and implementation of different strategies for the development. When we speak about Dream India then scientific exploration of natural resources also forms an importa...

Another election had been scheduled, organised and results are declared. The associated campaigning by various parties made us aware of many issues that had gathered dust over the years and also re-iterated the burning issues while hiding some skeletons inside the party’s / candidate’s   cupboard. However the one character that remains unchanged over the years is the protagonist in this entire exercise- the common masses. Yes, even after being aware of the lacunae prevailing in our electoral process, we Indians prefer the cosiness of our drawing room to only criticize the political parties, the candidates/politicians, and the entire system of which we are also a part, choosing to turn a blind eye to the role (rather not played) by us to change our government for the better. As a citizen of the largest and oldest democratic nations in the world, we are discharging the duties and responsibilities expected of us in the present to carry forward our healthy legacy in the future?. ...

  Right to education   is one of the major issues that has been taken up by the govt.   in the recent years. "The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act' or ' Right to Education Act   also known as RTE', stress the importance of free and compulsory education for children between 6 and 14 in India under Article 21A of the   Indian Constitution.   India became one of 135 countries to make   education a fundamental right   of every child when the act came into force on 1 April 2010. The title of the RTE Act incorporates the words ‘free and compulsory’. ‘Free education’ means that no child, other than a child who has been admitted by his or her parents to a school which is not supported by the appropriate Government, shall be liable to pay any kind of fee or charges or expenses which may prevent him or her from pursuing and completing elementary education". But this right to education needs to have more specification & categori...

The Amur falcon is a fascinating migratory raptor.  Every year, the small, resilient birds make the daring voyage from their breeding ground south eastern Siberia and northern China and cross the Arabian sea, during migration and reach India in large flocks. Video by – Santanu Nandi Purkayastha Falcon is the largest travelling migratory birds in the world.  These migratory birds travel from Siberia,China and  halt at Umrangso,( Dt- Dima Hasao, Assam) during their annual journey to South Africa.  Amur falcon are pigeon sized migratory birds origination in Siberia where they breed in summer.
