Farmers’ Protest: The Farmers’ Perspective

Image
  T here is a petition in the Supreme Court questions the constitutionality of the Farm Laws and, it is a topic worth discussing. Agriculture and matters related to trade and commerce form a part of the second list which is a subject matter of the state and yet the center had passed the laws on those very subjects. The center states that it had the power to make the law as per entry 33 of the third list, which is the concurrent list. However, this entry was introduced into the list for a temporary period, which for some reason did not find any need to be discontinued, and so it remained. Now, at this point in time, it is providing the center to make the activity of the state with regard to the same entry, redundant. Our country is quasi-federal, and giving the power of making laws on a subject to the hands of the Center, which the particular States would have more competency to make laws on, favors a form of government that is unitary. Such developments should have been nipped in...

What Turned a Tractor Parade into a Violent Mess? The Real Villain of the Chaos on Republic Day

  There were many security measures in place. Police personnel were deployed to control the protests and there were also farmers who had agreed earlier to help the cops in maintaining peace and order. Sanyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) had also given its assurance that peace and order will be maintained. Routes were also planned where the farmers were supposed to be rallying and protesting. However, despite all of these safety measures and precautions, the protest which began quite peacefully, ended up bitterly with the commission of vandalism by the protesters and violent clashes with the police who at first showed considerable restraint in yesterday’s rally.     There were many security measures in place.

Swami Vivekananda's said  that “The idea of perfect womanhood is perfect independence”  In February 2018, Indian Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Damodar Das Modi stated that the country is moving from women's development to women-led development and emphasized that the dream of New India is where women are empowered, strong, and an equal partner in the nation's overall development. He further stated that "Today, Citizen has to ensure the participation of women in every field of human life, whether it social or economic life, it is our fundamental duty. We are part of a cultural tradition where men were identified due to women-Yashoda-Nandan, Kaushalya-Nandan, Gandhari-Putra, these were identities of a son”. But, Is there a need for Women's development or Women-led development? What all are the initiative taken by the government? How our nation is moving toward women-led development? Let's discuss how India is moving toward women's development? The answer is i...

BLACK MONEY- THE STUMBLING BLOCK IN INDIA

Image
We often come across the two terms in our daily lives that are Black Money and the White Money. The title itself suggests that Black Money is the stumbling block or an obstacle prevailing in our culture. For instance, someone has bought a house but the wondering thing is that from where that particular person has managed to buy that lavish and costly house when he is financially not so sound and is a thief? It must be the black money earned through illegitimate means or he must have committed theft somewhere. So these are some of the assumptions that people may make. On another hand, if some rich person buys the same house, we presume that he has white money and can afford such a lavish house. It should be noted that this problem of Black Money is prevalent in the economy for ages. Corruption is prevalent at every level and people are destroying themselves and harming the integrity of the nation as well. Ironically, despite of so many legislations to curb the problem of Black money a...
