प्रत्यक्षा विदेशी निवेश - जनमत संग्रह

प्रत्यक्षा विदेशी निवेश के प्रश्न पर कुछ लोगों की सम्मति है कि इसे जनमत संग्रह के लिए रखा जाए।

जनमत संग्रह के सन्दर्भ में ये प्रश्न खड़े होते हैं :

1. इस बात का निश्चय कैसे और कौन करेगा की किन विषयों को जनमत संग्रह के लिए रखा जाना है? क्या भविष्य में इसके आधार पर आरक्षण, राम-मंदिर, मराठी-बिहारी विवादों के निर्णय की मांग नहीं रखी जायेगी? क्या भविष्य मैं संविधान संशोधन भी जनमत संग्रह से पारित करवाए जा सकेंगे?

2. क्या संविधान में इसका प्राविधान है, और क्या जनमत संग्रह द्वारा लिया गया निर्णय, स्वयंसिद्ध विधि (कानून) माना जायेगा? अथवा यह भी केवल सदन-बोध (सेंस ऑफ़ हाउस ) की तरह मजाक बनके रह जाएगा?

3. चुनावों की ही तरह, जनमत संग्रह में फिर से दलगत राजनीति द्वारा रस्सा कस्सी के चलते, गलत निर्णय सामने नहीं आएंगे ? अथवा किसी जनसँख्या - बाहुल्य क्षेत्र विशेष की प्राथमिकताएं देश की प्राथमिकताओं को प्रभावित नहीं करेंगी?

4. क्या डेढ़ अरब लोगों में जनमत संग्रह का खर्च, मूलभूत सुविधाओं की कीमत पर नहीं आयेगा?

मैंने सदैव ही यह विचार किया है की वृक्षारोपण के  नाम पर हम हमेशा सुन्दर दिखने वाले या फिर किसी एक ही प्रजाति के  पेड़ ही क्यों लगाते हैं, जबकि यह बात सार्वभौम सत्य है की किसी स्थान विशेष पर वहां के मूल वृक्ष ही अधिक पनपते हैं और पर्यावरण के लिए अधिक लाभकारी हैं ।

और भी महत्त्वपूर्ण बात यह है की छायादार एवेम फल वाले वृक्षों को क्यों नहीं लगाया जाता, ऐसा करने से सीधे सीधे अनेकों दुर्लभ पशुओं एवेम पक्षिओं के प्रजाति को बिना किसी परिश्रम के बचाया जा सकता है, साथ ही यह अनेकों लोगों की भूख भी मिटा सकता है। यही तो शेरशाह शूरी ने ग्रांड ट्रंक रोड पर किया था, क्या इतिहास को समझना इतना मुश्किल है?

वन विभाग की मति का भी जायजा लीजिये, की फलदार वृक्षों का वृक्षारोपण करना अवैध है???
खैर आज मुझे यह समाचार (26 अगस्त , 2012 , द हिन्दू ) पढ़कर अत्यंत प्रसन्नता हुई की कुछ आदिवासी लोगों ने सरकारी बाबुओं से अधिक प्रकृति एवं मानवता को समझा है।

Excerpts:

To combat the twin problems of malnutrition and environmental degradation, adivasis of Harda and Betul districts of Madhya Pradesh have decided to launch ‘Operation Guerrilla Green’ — a movement to plant large numbers of fruit bearing trees on vacant land, wherever it is available.

Mobilised under the banner of Shramik Adivasi Sangathan (SAS), a local tribal rights organisation, tribals of the region have resolved to plant one lakh saplings this year on any barren- degraded land — be it government, forest, private or panchayat land.

The ‘operation’ is similar to the Guerrilla Gardening movement, which is highly popular in several western countries and which involves planting of fruit and vegetable trees on abandoned or degraded land. The project will green degraded land and, at the same time providing nutritious fruits to the Gond and Korku tribals of this malnutrition-affected region.

However, it is a bit more complicated than your average ‘tree-planting-field trip’. To start with, the law is not on the tribals’ side, since the Forest Department does not permit any kind of plantation of fruit bearing trees (because they are considered commercial species) on forest land. As a result, several adivasis in Bod, Pippalbarra, Kamtha, Gavajhadap, Dhumka and Chunhajuri villages of Betul have reportedly been booked under sections of Indian Forest Act, 1927 and Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972.

After being turned down by district authorities on their demand of planting saplings, the adivasis decided to develop their own nurseries. In three villages of Betul — Bod, Pippalbarra and Markadhana they have developed nurseries and planted around 15,000 saplings of awla , guava, cheeku and jamun among others. They plan to plant another 85,000 saplings by collecting naturally grown plants from river banks, under the trees, and replant them systematically.

We are often working in environments, which impede our progress. This is inherent in any environment except in nature that has carefully put every part of it in place. All man-made environments are too general to cater to a very specific requirements. It is appropriate since man's aim never was perfection. Man has always worked to make things easier, not perfect, so that he needs to work less. Nature has a different class.

We keep on facing the same problems everyday. We should keep working on tailoring these environments to our needs. If we can not tailor these environments, we can devise methodologies that will help us focus on gains and not run into same problems again and again.

what objectives ought one to have. To live: Earn bread, clothes and arrange a shelter. What more is worthy: To live a life of character which, i guess, means being good to all than to be good just to oneself.

Then one ought to enjoy the life, look for it's fruits and flowers and bware of bushes. It is not simple though anymore since we started building houses and owning shares. We are now a part of the environment and environment does need our help sometimes.

it feels good to think about a life which is, apart from my job as a software engineer, filled with interacting with more people, seeing more places, observing more behaviour, recording them attentively and, may be sometimes, use the wisdom gained thus in my later enterprises.

Would it be a life lived well? I see no reasons to be unhappy. The key idea to me is use all capabilities and resting no more than a soul and a sound body requires.

Contra-attack

A book on algorithms described contra-attack as two proof methodologies: proof by contradiction and contrapositive.

It's been long time since i have been scribbling on notebooks, diaries, boards, elsewhere.."What makes a life significant." The phrase comes from an article written in Baalhans magazine some 10-15 years ago. It was about a champion of telepathy and after wonderful examples, article said that the fellow has written a book with that title.

For first few years after that, that phrase meant to me the search of such a book which will make me immensely more powerful...i grew up and learnt that there is no such thing as an "almighty" person. A better thing anyway is a "fearless" person.

Then i went to college and assigned an all-new meaning to this phrase, something which i still believe is far more significant. But despite the interest in exploring the meaning of the queston and its answers, i could never solve it.

Contra-attack gives another important question though, one probably which i can cnswer. What makes a life insignificant - Gossip

Two questions

Most probable question one asks while working on a problem is "how to solve it", and one desperately tries 'fixes' to the problem, but as it goes, quick fixes don't solve big problems. One also needs to identify where should it be fixed. This realization comes after a little experience and carries with itself quite a serendipity , e.g in situations when you find that some one else has got to fix it. :D

Not limited to those situations though, applications are far wider and significant of this question. A story frames a king who has a very large machinery which stops working one fine day without any prior clues. None of his skilled people could solve it. A expert is imported who, as story has it, fixes the machinery with hammering a spot and demands exorbitant fees, say 10000000 rupees ( a rupee is approximately 1/42 dollars at the time of this writing ). I believe in such a situation, a socialist king from CPI(M) or a capitalist king from Congress (I )/BJP would behave the same way and ask the rationale behind such a large amount for one act of masonry. However the expert held that the amount quite matched the efforts. His cash memo was simple and itemized :

Item Quantity Price
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hammering 1 Rs 1/-
Finding the spot to hammer - Rs 999999

It carries the point : "What is the right place to fix it." Workarounds are not solutions.

Is Mallika's dress too revealing

See article on rediff.com

Of subtle importance are the words "moral policing" and "bore the brunt of". This is definitely not a piece of reporting but an opinion. As such, it is in itself unethical to print it as part of news content. But look, who they raise their fingers on??? "moral police".

Author makes an impression that a mini skirt and a back-revealing dress makes the most fitting attire to such a public function. Not worthy of much attention is the fact that she is to be seated besides the elected representative of the state.


They continue to do that. rediff and TOI seem to have the revolutionaries aginst moral policing. It seems i am too narrow minded to understand how supporting love-making couples in public parks is a revolution and saving Yamuna is not.


I have chosen to speak against it. i cannot keep quiet anymore.
