Rajniti Vs Rajyaniti - have we made a historic mistake in translation
Was talking to a politician on things done and said at elections. All those massive budget rallies, big promises, lower and lower standards of debates, twisting truths to make jingles, making irrelevant zingers, personal attacks. He being a known one got candid, what he said next left us looking at the basics of our democracy.He said we are in the profession of राजनीति so our actions are defined by the quest to राज i.e. how to rule and get power.

How Energy loss in our buildings is hurting the planet
Human habitat design is largely driven by the kind of climate it is in. On the other hand if design fails to adjust to the climate the price that one pays is heavy, much heavier towards the Operation side. 80-90% of the lifecycle cost of the buildings get consumed in running them. A climate responsive design will therefore have obvious advantage in saving the opex (Operation expenditure).About 30% of total electric energy generated is consumed by transmission loads in walls / roofs.

सरकार की गलत नीति और महंगाई की मार झेलते किसानों के लिए खेती करना मुश्किल, चारा आत्महत्या – आकड़ें, रिपोर्ट और विश्लेषण
भारत के पूर्व प्रधानमंत्री लाल बहादुर शास्त्री ने एक समय नारा दिया था ‘जय जवान, जय किसान’ का. मगर आज इन दोनों की स्थिति महज वोट बैंक पॉलिटिक्स भर के लिए रह गई है. शरहद पर एक तरफ जवान मर रहा है तो खेत में किसान. इनका सुध लेने वाला कोई नहीं. चुनाव के दौरान यह मुद्दों के केंद्र में होते हैं मगर चुनाव होते ही इनका हाल 500 और 1000 वाले पुराने नोटों की तरह हो जाता है. इनके बारे में कहा तो जाता है मगर इनके लिए कुछ किया नहीं जाता. देश के अन्नदाता किसान आज दो जून खाने को तरसे इससे शर्मसार बात क्या होगी.

नेशनल ग्रीन ट्रिब्यूनल के आदेश की हो रही है अनदेखी:यमुना नदी में नेशनल ग्रीन ट्रिब्यूनल (एनजीटी) ने सभी तरह की माइनिंग पर पूरी तरह रोक लगा रखी है। पंचकूला में पंजाब से और बाकी जगहों पर राजस्थान से रेत आ रही है। इधर, एनजीटी की रोक के बावजूद यमुना नदी में अवैध माइनिंग रोकने में प्रशसान सफल नहीं रही है। माइनिंग माफिया इस कदर हावी है कि वह बेरोजगार युवकों की जान जोखिम में डालकर माइनिंग करवा रहे हैं, वहीं माइनिंग की साइट भी नहीं खुलने दे रहे हैं । हमने तीन दिन में माइनिंग डिपार्टमेंट के अधिकारियों, Read more...

पंजाब में गरीबों के हित के लिए नहीं राजनीतिक फायदे के लिए मुद्दा बना ‘अनाज घोटाला’ – एक पड़ताल
पंजाब में अनाज घोटालापंजाब में चुनावी माहौल अपने उफान पर है, आरोप-प्रत्यारोप का दौर अपने चरम पर। अनाज घोटाले को लेकर पंजाब सरकार को विपक्ष घेरने की भरसक कोशिश कर रही है। अनाज घोटाला एक अहम चुनावी मुद्दा बन गया है। करीब 12 हजार करोड़ रूपए के अनाज का हिसाब-किताब पंजाब सरकार के पास नहीं है। इससे लग रहा है कि कहीं न कहीं कुछ तो गड़बड़ी हुई होगी। ऐसे में यह सही है तो निश्चित तौर पर यह उस सभ्य समाज के लिए निंदनीय और शर्मिंदगी भरा है जहां एक बेबस सा मजबूर बच्चा हाथ फैलाए आपसे कुछ खिलाने की आग्रह करता है Read more...
एक प्रश्न - भारत के प्रधानमंत्री नरेन्द्र मोदी का कितना महत्वपूर्ण है ‘टाइम पर्सन ऑफ द ईयर’ चुना जाना
मोदी का ऐतिहासिक फैसलाभारत के प्रधानमंत्री नरेन्द्र मोदी ने वर्ष 2016 के दौरान कुछ ऐसे फैसले और बातें की जिसे भारत के इतिहास में ना पहले लिए गए थे और ना ही कहे गए थे. अक्टूबर को गोवा में हुए ब्रिक्स देशों के समिट के दौरान सार्वजनिक मंच से अंतरराष्ट्रीय स्तर पर पाकिस्तान को आतंकवाद का निर्यातक देश कहना मोदी का एक साहसिक कदम था. यहीं नहीं पाकिस्तान के सीमा में घुस कर सर्जिकल स्ट्राइक को अंजाम देना भी पहली बार ही हुआ था जिसने दुनिया को यह बताया की भारत अपने देश में घुसपैठ और आतंकवादियों को सह देने Read more...
