Janaki rejects the award:- Ms. Janaki, winner of four National Awards, stirred up a new controversy when she rejected the Padma Bhushan Award conferred on her describing it as “too late”. The singer said to mediapersons that, she deserved Bharat Ratna for having sung thousands of songs in various languages. She added that the government should show some more consideration to artists from south India in recognizing their talents and contributions. Long since these Padma awards have lost any merit. The practice of awarding posthumously had diluted its worth to zero. It is really surprising why Bharat Ratna was ever awarded posthumously, to Mahatma Gandhi or Netaji Bose or Sardar Patel or even Jhansi ki Rani! Because no longer they count for vote banks! We, as a country know how to spoil anything, instituted by us or borrowed from others! What Janaki said about the rejection of the award? http://murugesansenthil.blogspot.in/2013/01/i-deserve-much- more-s-janaki.html murugesansenthil.blogspot.com - 11 - JAN 2013 CURRENT AFFAIRS ARYABHATTA AWARD The former secretary of the Department of Ocean Development, A.E.

  • Current Affairs 2013- January International
    Current Affairs 2013- January International The Fourth Meeting of ASEAN and India Tourism Minister was held in Vientiane, Lao PDR on 21 January, in conjunction with the ASEAN Tourism Forum 2013. The Meeting was jointly co-chaired by Union Tourism Minister K.Chiranjeevi and Prof. Dr. Bosengkham Vongdara, Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism, Lao PDR. Both the Ministers signed the Protocol to amend the Memorandum of Understanding between ASEAN and India on Strengthening Tourism Cooperation, which would further strengthen the tourism collaboration between ASEAN and Indian national tourism organisations. The main objective of this Protocol is to amend the MoU to protect and safeguard the rights and interests of the parties with respect to national security, national and public interest or public order, protection of intellectual property rights, confidentiality and secrecy of documents, information and data. Both the Ministers welcomed the adoption of the Vision Statement of the ASEAN-India Commemorative Summit held on 20 December 2012 in New Delhi, India, particularly on enhancing the ASEAN Connectivity through supporting the implementation of the Master Plan on ASEAN Connectivity. The Ministers also supported the close collaboration of ASEAN and India to enhance air, sea and land connectivity within ASEAN and between ASEAN and India through ASEAN-India connectivity project. In further promoting tourism exchange between ASEAN and India, the Ministers agreed to launch the ASEAN-India tourism website (www.indiaasean.org) as a platform to jointly promote tourism destinations, sharing basic information about ASEAN Member States and India and a visitor guide. The Russian Navy on 20 January, has begun its biggest war games in the high seas in decades that will include manoeuvres off the shores of Syria.

  • From 2D Droplets to 2D Yang-Mills Arxiv:2010.11923V1 [Hep-Th]
    Prepared for submission to JHEP From 2d Droplets to 2d Yang-Mills Arghya Chattopadhyaya, Suvankar Duttab, Debangshu Mukherjeeb;c, Neetub aInstitute of Mathematical Sciences, Homi Bhaba National Institute (HBNI) IV Cross Road, Taramani, Chennai 600113, Tamil Nadu, India bIndian Institute of Science Education and Research Bhopal Bhopal Bypass, Bhopal 462066, India cIndian Institute of Science Education and Research Thiruvananthapuram Vithura 695551, Kerala, India E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: We establish a connection between time evolution of free Fermi droplets and partition function of generalised q-deformed Yang-Mills theories on Riemann surfaces. Classical phases of (0 + 1) dimensional unitary matrix models can be characterised by free Fermi droplets in two dimensions. We quantise these droplets and find that the modes satisfy an abelian Kac-Moody algebra. The Hilbert spaces H+ and H− associated with the upper and lower free Fermi surfaces of a droplet admit a Young diagram basis in which the phase space Hamiltonian is diagonal with eigenvalue, in the large N limit, equal to the quadratic Casimir of u(N). We establish an exact mapping between states in H± and geometries of droplets. In particular, coherent states in H± correspond to classical deformation of upper and lower Fermi surfaces. We prove that correlation between two coherent states in H± is equal to the chiral and anti-chiral partition function of 2d Yang-Mills theory on a cylinder. Using the fact that the full Hilbert space H+ ⊗ H− admits a composite basis, we show that correlation between two classical droplet geometries is equal to the full U(N) Yang-Mills partition function on cylinder.

  • Features of the Internet History the Norwegian Contribution to the Development PAAL SPILLING and YNGVAR LUNDH
    Features of the Internet history The Norwegian contribution to the development PAAL SPILLING AND YNGVAR LUNDH This article provides a short historical and personal view on the development of packet-switching, computer communications and Internet technology, from its inception around 1969 until the full- fledged Internet became operational in 1983. In the early 1990s, the internet backbone at that time, the National Science Foundation network – NSFNET, was opened up for commercial purposes. At that time there were already several operators providing commercial services outside the internet. This presentation is based on the authors’ participation during parts of the development and on literature Paal Spilling is studies.

  • India Emerging As an Economic Superpower
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 20, Issue 5, Ver. IV (May. 2015), PP 45-50 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org India Emerging as an Economic Superpower Himani Assistant Professor In Economics D.A.V. College For Girls, Yamuna Nagar Abstract: With nearly 1.1 billion inhabitants, India is the second largest country on earth in population, and seventh largest in geographical area, over 1.1 million square miles. This is almost 1,000 people for every square mile of area nationwide—much denser than even China. Since achieving independence from British rule in 1947, it has seen its share of conflict, struggle and setbacks. Although India still faces many challenges, it is now poised to reach a higher position on the world scene than at any previous time. The Indian economy has grown an average of around 6% annually over the past decade and 8% per year over the past three years— among the fastest rates in the world. It boasts an emerging middle class and increasing gross domestic product, exports, employment and foreign investment. This is complemented by a roaring stock market (index value up by a third in 2005 and by 200% since 2001), low external debt and large foreign exchange reserves. Recent visits from leaders and officials from the United States, France, Germany and Russia have spotlighted India‟s rise. These wealthier nations see India as a trading partner with enormous potential. Now the question is „Will India Become a Superpower?‟ This paper is an attempt to show that “Whether India is really becoming an economic super power or is it a myth?” I.
