    Knowledge of Holy Book Gita Will Eradicate All World Problems by : Editor Published on : 7 Mar, 2021 05:05 PM IST

    Knowledge of holy book Gita will eradicate all World problems By : Editor Published On : 7 Mar, 2021 05:05 PM IST INVC NEWS Haryana, Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal said that the knowledge shared in Bhagavad Gita holds the key to remove all doubts and problems of the world. To grasp the light of this knowledge, one has to imbibe the teachings of Bhagavad Gita in their lives. Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal was speaking after inaugurating the first phase of Geeta Museum built at Gita Gyan Sansthanam Centre built at a cost of Rs. 5 crore in Kurukshetra today. Kurukshetra is the holy place from where the immortal teachings and knowledge of Bhagavad Gita was preached which is enlightening the entire world. Sh. Manohar Lal said that just like its name, Gita Gyan Sansthanam,(G.I.E.O) is constantly preaching the immortal teachings and knowledge of Bhagavad Gita to the entire world. “The spiritual gain of Shrimad Bhagwad Gita is not gained only by listening, reading, memorizing, or understanding, infact one gets the real benefit when the essence of this Holy Scripture is imbibed in one’s life,” said the Chief Minister. The Chief Minister said that the Holy Scripture Gita has its own spiritual aura and if we remain associated with this then certainly, we would not indulge in any wrongdoings in our lives and will always get inspiration to do good work and hence our life will become pure. Chief Minister said that the G.I.E.O Gita Museum and Library will be useful to pacify the thirst of the pilgrims who visit this holy place with the curiosity to imbibe the celestial knowledge of Gita.

    Nitto Atp Finals Complete Record-Breaking Attendance Across 2017 Atp World Tour Season

    22 November 2017 NITTO ATP FINALS COMPLETE RECORD-BREAKING ATTENDANCE ACROSS 2017 ATP WORLD TOUR SEASON LONDON – The 2017 Nitto ATP Finals brought a spectacular close to a memorable 2017 season that saw more fans come out and watch the world’s best tennis players on the ATP World Tour than ever before. More than 4.5 million fans attended ATP World Tour events in 2017, an all-time record. The season finale in London attracted a total attendance of 253,642, including six sold-out sessions, making it the ninth successive year that the tournament has broken the 250,000 attendance mark. Cumulative attendance since the tournament moved to London in 2009 stands at more than 2.3 million fans. This year’s tournament saw a host of three set-matches across the eight days of competition in a tournament that pitted established stars such as Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer against some must- see newcomers at the season finale. The event culminated with Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov’s dramatic 7-5, 4-6, 6-3 win over Belgium’s David Goffin in the final. The 31-game final equaled the second most games played in a three-set final in the history of the tournament, with only John McEnroe’s win over Arthur Ashe in 1978 longer (34 games). Dimitrov became the first champion to win the title undefeated on his tournament debut since McEnroe in 1978. The Bulgarian collected a total of $2,549,000 in prize money and 1500 Emirates ATP Rankings points to finish the season at a career high No.

  • Political Economy of India's Fiscal and Financial Reform*

    Political Economy of India's Fiscal and Financial Reform*

    Working Paper No. 105 Political Economy of India’s Fiscal and Financial Reform by John Echeverri-Gent* August 2001 Stanford University John A. and Cynthia Fry Gunn Building 366 Galvez Street | Stanford, CA | 94305-6015 * Associate Professor, Department of Government and Foreign Affairs, University of Virginia 1 Although economic liberalization may involve curtailing state economic intervention, it does not diminish the state’s importance in economic development. In addition to its crucial role in maintaining macroeconomic stability, the state continues to play a vital, if more subtle, role in creating incentives that shape economic activity. States create these incentives in a variety of ways including their authorization of property rights and market microstructures, their creation of regulatory agencies, and the manner in which they structure fiscal federalism. While the incentives established by the state have pervasive economic consequences, they are created and re-created through political processes, and politics is a key factor in explaining the extent to which state institutions promote efficient and equitable behavior in markets. India has experienced two important changes that fundamentally have shaped the course of its economic reform. India’s party system has been transformed from a single party dominant system into a distinctive form of coalitional politics where single-state parties play a pivotal role in making and breaking governments. At the same time economic liberalization has progressively curtailed central government dirigisme and increased the autonomy of market institutions, private sector actors, and state governments. In this essay I will analyze how these changes have shaped the politics of fiscal and financial sector reform.
  • Game, Set, Watched: Governance, Social Control and Surveillance in Professional Tennis

    Game, Set, Watched: Governance, Social Control and Surveillance in Professional Tennis

    GAME, SET, WATCHED: GOVERNANCE, SOCIAL CONTROL AND SURVEILLANCE IN PROFESSIONAL TENNIS By Marie-Pier Guay A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada November, 2013 Copyright © Marie-Pier Guay, 2013 Abstract Contrary to many major sporting leagues such as the NHL, NFL, NBA, and MLB, or the Olympic Games as a whole, the professional tennis industry has not been individually scrutinized in terms of governance, social control, and surveillance practices. This thesis presents an in-depth account of the major governing bodies of the professional tennis circuit with the aim of examining how they govern, control, constrain, and practice surveillance on tennis athletes and their bodies. Foucault’s major theoretical concepts of disciplinary power, governmentality, and bio-power are found relevant today and can be enhanced by Rose’s ethico-politics model and Haggerty and Ericson’s surveillant assemblage. However, it is also shown how Foucault, Rose, and Haggerty and Ericson’s different accounts of “modes of governing” perpetuate sociological predicaments of professional tennis players within late capitalism. These modes of surveillance are founded on a meritocracy based on the ATP and WTA rankings systems. A player’s ranking affects how he or she is governed, surveilled, controlled, and even punished. Despite ostensibly promoting tennis athletes’ health protection and wellbeing, the systems of surveillance, governance, and control rely on a biased and capitalistically-driven meritocracy that actually jeopardizes athletes’ health and contributes to social class divisions, socio- economic inequalities, gender discrimination, and media pressure.
