New motor vehicles act is implemented, those in the habit of driving rashly or flouting rules should be prepared to pay as much as 20 times more than before.(PTI)

It is high time unruly and dangerours drivers were reined in. More than five lakh road accidents take place in India every year claiming close to 1.5 lakh lives. That is why the Lok Sabha’s approval of the modifications to the Motor Vehicle (Amendment) Bill, 2016 which includes a slew of tough measures against violators, is a radical departure for the better from the 30-year-old law that governs traffic in the country.

One of the highlights of the new bill is heftier penalties . Those in the habit of driving rashly should be prepared to pay as much as 20 times more than before. Driving without a licence will invite a fine of Rs 5,000: the fine for the offence was Rs 500 earlier. Driving with a licence that has been deemed disqualified can make you poorer by Rs 10,000 , the fine rising from Rs 500. Another significant proposal is a prison term for callous custodians. If a vehicle is registered in the parent’s name and a minor causes a fatal accident while driving it, the parent could go to jail for a maximum term of three years. This should discourage the culture of underage drivers causing mishaps while speeding or carrying out stunts.

A strong legislation that makes penalties for violators tougher was required to control the growing indiscipline on India’s roads, particularly in big cities.As many as 1,48,707 people were killed and 4,82,389 were injured in more than 4,64,674 accidents on Indian roads in 2015. The lack of awareness about the consequences of letting their children drive is common in many urban households. Instead of checking the menace, some parents take pride in letting their children drive young. And the offenders are getting younger every passing year. According to government data, the Delhi Police fined 225 juveniles for underage driving in 2015 alone. The menace of drink driving is even more widespread. In 2015, the police prosecuted 5,523 people in the Capital for driving under the influence. The proposal to penalise drink driving with a Rs 10,000-!5,000 fine, is , therefore, welcome.

Under the new bill, .compensation for hit-and-run cases will increase from Rs 25,000 to Rs 2 lakh and for fatal road accidents, up to Rs 10 lakh. Also, it proposes the creation of a Motor Vehicle Accident Fund that would extend a compulsory insurance cover to all road users for certain kinds of accidents and the protection of good Samaritans from civil or criminal action.

To facilitate the delivery of services to stakeholders, says the bill, the government will lean heavily on e-governance. This includes enabling online learners’ licences, increasing the validity period for drivers’ licences and doing away with the norms of educational qualifications for licences. But this can have a flip side.

One of the biggest speed-bumps for the BJP government before it realises the objective of reducing fatalities by 50% in five years is ensuring that only those with requisite expertise get a licence to drive. Although the fear of heftier fines is a step in the right direction, only airtight implementation can ensure that wayward drivers don’t get away by greasing the palms of authorities at various levels.

You need lessons on keeping quiet’you must be awakening yourself and your soul

Sisters and brothers of all nation,respectfully. BJP leaders need to watch their words, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi is watching. The ruling party’s supreme leader on Sunday gave fellow party men a lecture on how and when to “keep quiet”.

The growing habit among ruling party leaders to speak out of turn, sometimes even creating a controversy, has not gone down well with Modi.

“Every time I switch on television, I see a BJP leader making one or the other statement. You need lessons on keeping quiet,” a senior party functionary quoted Modi as saying during his concluding remarks at the BJP’s national executive meeting here.

Modi pointed to a party spokesman and said he needed to give BJP leaders lessons on how to keep their lips sealed, said the official who spoke on condition of anonymity.

“There is no need to speak every time someone puts a TV mike before you,” Modi was quoted as saying.

Modi has been repeatedly warning the BJP motormouths against speaking out of turn and leave that job to official party spokesmen.

He asked the party to be cautious of those trying to manufacture controversy, on issues such as intolerance.

Modi’s repeated advice, though, has not cut much ice with several BJP leaders who put the party and the government in a tight spot with their off-the-cuff remarks.

The BJP found itself in an indefensible position when its former Rajya Sabha MP Tarun Vijaytriggered a controversy with a remark on the skin colour of south Indians.

Thanking all pupil and hope conveniently a good start of your knowledge..

EVMs may not be perfect but they are better than the ballot paper system,we should check and published all cctv footage at evm checking machine

The demand to abandon the use of electronic voting machines (EVMs) is not new. After their electoral defeat in 2009, the BJP had called for the country to revert to paper ballots; and many political parties had supported this demand then. This issue has made a comeback after the results of the assembly elections held in five states earlier this year. This time the call for paper ballots comes from the other side of the political spectrum, with the Congress and AAP leading the charge.

To say that EVMs are absolutely and completely tamper-proof may not be entirely accurate, but they have saved the country millions by reducing the amount of manpower needed in the old system. Since no conclusive evidence of large-scale EVM tampering that may have affected election results has yet been found, opposition to the machines are based on assumptions alone. After interventions by the courts, EVMs are now being made to contain a voter-verifiable paper audit trail (VVPAT). In this system, voters are shown a printed paper receipt of the vote cast inside a glass, but one that cannot be taken out of the machine. This is a good attempt to make the system harder to tamper with.

As the Congress’ own Veerappa Moily has pointed out, it would not be a progressive step to go back to the possibility of ink thrown in ballot boxes, ballot stuffing and invalid votes in which it is impossible to figure out which candidate’s name has been stamped. To have thousands of government employees locked up in rooms for days on end while counting votes; employ large battalions of security personnel to ensure the safe transport of several thousand ballot boxes; and to go back to a process that was far less efficient than the present system would be a retrograde step. The Election Commission’s move inviting experts, technocrats, and scientists to try and hack the systems is a welcome one; and hopefully, it will throw up more ways in which the machines can be made better and more efficient.

Everybody should be more knowledge about the political system of our life..

ecologically-fragile Yamuna floodplain in east Delhi resembled a garbage-littered wasteland,we must be aware of wasteland and swachh Bharat mission

Thanks God and my parents to give me so much love ,power to elaborate and power to upgrade other people mind..

It is often said --- correctly so --- that there are many laws in India but very little implementation. This deficit becomes all the more pronounced when it comes to environmental laws. Almost every other day, there are reports of violation of these laws even though they are critical for our future. Take, for example, the Yamuna floodplain case. It is a straightforward one: An organisation, Art of Living, flouted a 2013 National Green Tribunal (NGT) order, which banned all construction on the river’s flood plains because they affect the natural flow of the river, with the help of government agencies. However, thanks to the determined efforts of activists and citizens, a petition was filed in the NGT. Despite a strong case, the tribunal very reluctantly allowed the festival in March 2016, saying that as the matter was ‘fait accompli’ (because much of the construction had happened), and they could not ban it. But they set up a panel to look into the destruction that AOL had inflicted on the river’s floodplains while holding their mammoth three-day cultural extravaganza.

What is appalling is the attitude of AOL and also that of politicians: From day one, AOL has been aggressive, claiming that they have done no wrong and has now called the panel “bias[ed] beyond doubt”. The less said the better about the political class. Despite the organisation flouting the law and its government agencies facilitating this transgression, several politicians attended the meet, thereby legitimising an illegal event.

This case also shows how little politicians care about the city and ecology. On Thursday, Delhi Water Minister Kapil Mishra exhibited utter disregard for the ecology of the city he governs. He mocked the findings of the panel and had the audacity to say that the event should be held again and “only on its banks”. The case will come up in NGT for its final words on April 20. It is absolutely critical to ensure that AOL pays up for the damage.

For far too long, India’s strong environment protection laws have been flouted. It’s time to send out a strong message that such transgressions will not be allowed.

Thanking all for acquiring knowledge,,and upgrading knowledge and vibration power of life.

A look through International Politics ,Russia US tiies are going down hill

Nation-states have permanent interests and, among great powers, not even presidential friendships can get in the way. This geopolitical truism is evident from President Donald Trump’s abortive attempts to move the United States government’s policy towards Russia to a less confrontational path. In no other foreign policy area was the gap between candidate Trump and the Washington establishment greater than his professed admiration for Vladimir Putin, scepticism about the Western alliance and opposition to economic sanctions against Russia. Trump now admits that US-Russia relations are at “an all-time low” and the Kremlin speaks of bilateral ties having “worsened” with the new administration.

The Trump administration was initially seen as a godsend by Moscow. The Ukraine crisis and Russia’s military intervention in Syria had led to a consensus across much of the West that a tough stance was needed to counter Putin. A Russophilic US administration would have put paid to this policy. While the economic sanctions were only pinpricks, they exaggerated much deeper Russian economic problems brought about by the slump in global oil and gas prices, a near halving of the private sector’s contribution to Russia’s GDP in the past 15 years and a stagnant investment-to-GDP ratio. While Moscow has been able to sustain growth by dipping into reserves it built up during the commodity boom, it needs advanced technology and foreign investment to ensure growth in the years to come. The hope Trump would be the key to all this is now almost gone.

An individual’s whimsies, even a president, can ultimately never prevail in a polity with strong institutions. Trump’s desire for closer ties with Russia faced opposition from almost every element of the US bureaucracy, security apparatus, legislature and his own Republican Party. Evidence the Kremlin may have sought to interfere in the US presidential elections in Trump’s favour only added legitimacy to the system’s efforts to maintain the traditional run of the US’s Russia policy. The US is now almost deliberately bearding the Russian bear in his lair. The barrage of cruise missiles against a Syrian regime backed by Moscow has been followed by the use of a fuel-air explosive in Afghanistan on the eve of a Russian-hosted multinational Afghan peace conference. India would have preferred some sort of US-Russia rapprochement, not least because a return to quasi-Cold War days seems to benefit China’s global standing the most. New Delhi must now assume that there will be no Trump healing touch to one of the world’s oldest geopolitical faultlines and adjust its policies accordingly in places like the western Pacific and Afghanistan.

A herd will have a calming effect on parliamentary proceedings

India’s recent success in securing the human rights of cows is a historic achievement that deserves all our kudos. We may still have a patchy record in protecting the human rights of humans. But who says progress has to be linear? Sometimes, like the traffic in Bengaluru, a country may have to traverse several diversions on the road to greatness. In India’s case, it so happens that the diversions are strewn with cow dung.

Narrow-minded liberals may like to keep quoting the Constitution till the cows come home. But now that the home has been notified as a cattle shed, they must shut up. What these annoying spawn of Macaulay, who hold forth on secularism one day and Sauvignon Blanc the next, don’t realise is that India is not just a country. It is an ancient civilisation that predates the Constitution by several millennia. This civilisation was a Vedic democracy founded by the cows, of the cows, and for the cows. Humans occupied their dharmic place in this society — as servants of the cow.

Then bad things happened, and humans began eating the cows. Now, after centuries of struggle, that practice has been stopped, more or less. India is on the verge of reclaiming its rightful global status as the mother of human civilisation and the gau mata of any advanced alien civilisation that inter-galactic probes may discover in times to come. But it needs to do one more thing to keep its tryst with cosmic greatness: introduce 33% reservation for cows in Parliament.

Thanks to tireless campaigning by cow-protection activists, today everyone in India agrees that cows and ordinary Indians enjoy the same constitutional rights — the only exception being black people from south India, who are entitled to nothing more than a masala dosa and a vat of sambar.

So it is only fair that cows, like their fair human counterparts, get guaranteed political representation in our democracy. Besides upholding the spirit of the Constitution, such a move will have many positive side effects.

First of all, given that all corrupt politicians are humans and cows are incorruptible, it would, in one stroke, reduce corruption by 33%. Second, since cows are typically female, it is a big step towards gender equality. Third, it would lower the human capital costs of keeping the democratic machinery running. The cost to the country (CTC) of one bovine Member of Parliament is estimated to be one-thousandth the CTC of a human MP. Multiply that by 180 (33% of 545) and you get an idea of the astronomical savings that would accrue to the exchequer from the Lok Sabha alone. Do this calculation for the Rajya Sabha and all the State Assemblies, and you’re looking at thousands of crores in savings.

The amount thus saved could be used to provide free medical care, affordable housing in a state-of-the-art gaushala, and a universal basic income to all Indian cows so that they no longer suffer the indignity of foraging in garbage dumps alongside human ragpickers.

Furthermore, all cows are vegetarian by birth. Plus they don’t consume alcohol, not even mocktails. This would raise the aggregate sattvik profile of our elected representatives, while reducing the per capita cost of keeping them well-fed. Given that cows are peace-loving, sweet-tempered, soft-spoken, and decent by nature, a herd of bovine MPs is bound to have a calming effect on parliamentary proceedings, which have tended to be stormy in recent times. I’d bet my Aadhaar card that no cow would ever try to make a point by rushing to the Well of the House — not unless you fill it with water and add hay.

Unlike human MPs, many of whom have criminal charges against them, cows are law-abiding by nature. Most human MPs are crorepatis, and have little in common with the average Indian, making them less empathetic to their problems. Cows, by contrast, are known for simple living and high thinking. As some of you may have learnt in biology class at school, they are experts in rumination — a vital skill set for any parliamentarian but one that is sadly missing in our current crop of human MPs.

And lastly, if you are an airline staff, your chances of being beaten with chappals would diminish by 33%. In view of all these benefits, the government should pass the cow reservation bill without further delay. As a proud Indian, I can’t wait for the day when a cow will address the nation from the ramparts of the Red Fort.

Ahmadinejad’s bid for the presidency reflects the political uncertainties gripping Iran

Thanks God For providing me enough time to publish such post to upgrade our society ,upgrade the knowledge of youth,upgrade the ultimate power to rebuild strengthen our nation. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sprang a surprise when he registered himself as a candidate in Iran’s presidential election scheduled for May 19. After leaving the office of President in 2013 at the end of two controversial terms, the firebrand populist has been largely inactive in politics. He began as a favourite of the ayatollahs, but during his second term he had a turbulent relationship with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader, who asked him not to run for President again. Mr. Ahmadinejad’s defiant return to the race shows the growing significance of hard-line politics in a charged region. As successor to the mild-mannered reformist Mohammad Khatami, he toed a strident line on Israel and the U.S., refusing to meaningfully negotiate with the West over Iran’s nuclear programme despite crippling economic sanctions. This election is crucial for Iran as it is seen as a referendum on the nuclear deal it reached in 2015 with global powers. President Hassan Rouhani, who championed the deal on the promise that better ties with the West would help improve Iran’s economy, is expected to seek re-election. He faces challenges from hardliners, who say Iran needs a stronger leader who can stand up to Donald Trump’s America. The rising anti-Iran rhetoric of the Trump administration, which imposed new sanctions on Tehran over a missile test, has given the hardliners a fresh handle.

Iran’s election is a complex process that is partially managed and partially reflects the popular will. At least 120 people have registered as candidates. The clerical Guardian Council will vet the candidates and publish the final list on April 27, removing most dissidents. Thereafter the election is expected to be free. It is not clear if Mr. Ahmadinejad intends to stay as a candidate or plans to shape the election agenda in favour of the hardliners. As of now, the most powerful conservative candidate is Ebrahim Raisi, a close ally of Ayatollah Khamenei and a clear favourite of the clerical establishment. For the conservatives, this is an opportunity to reclaim the presidency — one of the three main pillars of the Iranian state, but the only one with a popular mandate — and reclaim legitimacy for their hard-line agenda. For the moderates, the challenge is to push back the strongman narrative of the conservatives and shape the agenda around economic development and incremental freedoms, as opposed to strengthening theocracy and a stand-off with the West. In 2013, Mr. Rouhani had shown the political aptitude to stitch together an alliance with moderates as well as conservatives who had fallen out with the clerical establishment, while cashing in on popular impatience with the Ahmadinejad government. It is time the political climate changed. It may take greater political guile for Mr. Rouhani to withstand the hardliners’ campaign at a time when economic troubles and regional challenges remain and the U.S. is again taking a confrontationist stance towards Tehran.
