Terrorism is dangerous to both the human rights and peace. Unfortunately the issue of human Keywords rights is over politicised and sometimes it is used by the vested interests to derail the Human rights, Peace, Kashmir government measures to establish peace, law and order, which is basic requirement for the protection of human rights and governance. The vociferous campaign of some National and International Human Rights Group along with some political parties in opposition on the issue of violation of human rights by the security measures in Kashmir especially after the revocation of the Article 370 are analysed under the above context. While referring to the measures which were taken by the central government to established peace in Punjab just in the neighboring state of J&K then, paper holds that the strong measures against the terrorism are necessary measures to secure the human rights of the common citizens in Kashmir. This paper also exposes the dubious character of the some national and international human rights groups along with the political parties in opposition that are more worried about the right to freedom of expression instead of the right to life in a volatile situation like in Kashmir.

  • Tasar Designer: F.D.Bethwaite, Assisted by I.B.Bruce
    Tasar Designer: F.D.Bethwaite, assisted by I.B.Bruce Dimensions Length, Overall 14’10” 4.52m Length, Waterline 14’00” 4.27m Beam 5’9” 1.75m Hull Depth 2’½” 0.62m Sail Area: Main 90sq.ft. 8.36sq.m. Jib 33sq.ft. 3.07sq.m. Sailing the Tasar By Frank Bethwaite And Ian Bruce Introduction This manual has been written for the sole purpose of helping you to enjoy your Tasar to the fullest, regardless of your previous skills and experience. Section I shows you how to assemble and rig your Tasar. Section II deals with the basics of handling, sailing and maintaining your boat and is in tended primarily for those who have had limited experience with a light, planing sailboat. If you already have dinghy experience you will find Section II pretty simple stuff but we still recommend that you breeze through it as one or two points are peculiar to the Tasar. Once you and your crew are comfortable with the boat and confident in your ability to handle it afloat and ashore, it follows, inevitably, that you will seek to increase your knowledge because with it will come increased pleasure. In Section III we let you delve into the principles behind the evolution and design of the Tasar and, in particular, help you to more fully understand the importance of the over-rotating mast by reintroducing you to the basic aerodynamic principles of sails and sail shapes. Section IV is a detailed look at the upwind performance of the Tasar and the infinite control which can be exercised over the full spectrum of wind conditions.

  • Setting the Stage: a Materialist Semiotic Analysis Of
    SETTING THE STAGE: A MATERIALIST SEMIOTIC ANALYSIS OF CONTEMPORARY BENGALI GROUP THEATRE FROM KOLKATA, INDIA by ARNAB BANERJI (Under the Direction of Farley Richmond) ABSTRACT This dissertation studies select performance examples from various group theatre companies in Kolkata, India during a fieldwork conducted in Kolkata between August 2012 and July 2013 using the materialist semiotic performance analysis. Research into Bengali group theatre has overlooked the effect of the conditions of production and reception on meaning making in theatre. Extant research focuses on the history of the group theatre, individuals, groups, and the socially conscious and political nature of this theatre. The unique nature of this theatre culture (or any other theatre culture) can only be understood fully if the conditions within which such theatre is produced and received studied along with the performance event itself. This dissertation is an attempt to fill this lacuna in Bengali group theatre scholarship. Materialist semiotic performance analysis serves as the theoretical framework for this study. The materialist semiotic performance analysis is a theoretical tool that examines the theatre event by locating it within definite material conditions of production and reception like organization, funding, training, availability of spaces and the public discourse on theatre. The data presented in this dissertation was gathered in Kolkata using: auto-ethnography, participant observation, sample survey, and archival research. The conditions of production and reception are each examined and presented in isolation followed by case studies. The case studies bring the elements studied in the preceding section together to demonstrate how they function together in a performance event. The studies represent the vast array of theatre in Kolkata and allow the findings from the second part of the dissertation to be tested across a variety of conditions of production and reception.
