  • Title Title Daily Current Affairs Capsule 27Th January 2021
    Title Daily Current Affairs Capsule th Title 27 January 2021 International Day of Commemoration in memory of the victims of the Holocaust: 27 January International Day of Commemoration in memory of the victims of the Holocaust (International Holocaust Remembrance Day) is observed on 27 January every year. The day commemorates the anniversary of the tragedy of the Holocaust that occurred during the Second World War. A genocide occurred during World War II in which Nazi Germany, aided by its collaborators, systematically murdered some six million European Jews, around two-thirds of the Jewish population of Europe, between 1941 and 1945. The theme of the International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2021 is “Facing the Aftermath: Recovery and Reconstitution after the Holocaust” Italian PM Conte resigns Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte resigned after losing his Senate majority, plunging the country into political uncertainty just as it’s battling the pandemic and a recession. He tendered his resignation to President Sergio Mattarella, the ultimate arbiter of Italian political crises, who invited him to stay on in a caretaker capacity pending discussions on what happens next. Italy was the first European country to face the full force of the Covid-19 pandemic and has since suffered badly, with the economy plunged into recession and deaths still rising by around 400 a day. Parts of the country remain under partial lockdown, the vaccination programme has slowed and a deadline is looming to agree plans to spend billions of euros in European Union recovery funds.

  • Draft Report of the PAC on 2G and 3G Spectrum Allocation
    REPORT PART – I CHAPTER - I BACKGROUND 1.1 In recent times, India has emerged as one of the most dynamic and promising and fastest growing telecom markets in the world. It has third largest overall telecom network and the second largest wireless network in the world. Mobile telephony and thus Spectrum have played a vital role in the stupendous growth of the telecom services in India. The word ‘Spectrum’ basically refers to a collection of various types of electromagnetic radiations of different wavelengths. Radio frequency Spectrum is a limited global natural resource with a high economic value, due to its heavy demand in the telecommunication sector. It is a finite but non-consumable natural resource. But it will be wasted if not used efficiently. In India, the radio frequencies are being used for around forty different types of services like space communication, mobile communication, broadcasting, radio navigation, mobile satellite service, aeronautical satellite services, defence communication etc. 1.2 Some of the important and typical characteristics of the radio frequency Spectrum are as below: (i) Radio frequency spectrum does not respect international geographical boundaries as it is spread over a large terrestrial area. (ii) Use of radio frequency spectrum is susceptible to overlapping interference and requires the application of complex engineering tools to ensure interference free operation of various wireless networks. (iii) Unlike other natural resources, radio frequency spectrum is not consumed upon its usage. It is also liable to be wasted if it is not used optimally and efficiently. Radio frequency spectrum usage is, therefore, to be shared amongst the various radio services and must be used efficiently, optimally and economically in conformity with the provisions of national and international laws.

The Democratic president signed an executive order aimed at closing loopholes in existing "Buy American" provisions, which apply to about a third of the $600 billion in goods and services the federal government buys each year. The order will make any waivers more transparent and create a senior White House role to oversee the process.

  • The Making of Regulatory Independence By
    THE MAKING OF REGULATORY INDEPENDENCE BY SIDDHARTHA SUNDER RAJA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communication in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Christian Sandvig, Chair Professor Peggy Miller Professor Dan Schiller Professor Noshir Contractor Abstract This study offers an ethnographic account of life at a regulatory agency to offer a new perspective on an important question: how does a regulatory agency become and remain independent? Relying on an analytical framework based on scholarship in legal anthropology, this study provides elements of an answer based on an insider‘s view of regulation, illuminating the complex, messy, and political nature of what may seem from the outside as calm and neutral application of technical expertise. The formal account suggests that legislative action defines the position and mandate of such an agency making it independent—immune from political influence in its decision-making. However, experience has shown that the making and maintenance of independence is a challenge, especially as these agencies typically enter arenas much after other powerful economic and political interests have established their own positions. The result is that in spite of efforts of international financial institutions, governments, and regulatory staffers worldwide to create independent regulatory agencies, many of these agencies are severely constrained in their ability to function effectively. Using unprecedented access to individuals working at the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), this study will show that regulatory staffers are constantly struggling to make and maintain their position, define their role, and keep their agency going.
