  • Imp Judgement by SC 2019: Download PDF Part 2
    www.gradeup.co 1 www.gradeup.co Important Judgement Passed by the Supreme Court - 2019 (Part 2) The Supreme Court of India (SCI) is the apex judicial body under the ‘Constitution of India’ having the power to give decisions in cases between two or more parties. A maximum of 34 judges with a Chief Justice of India, the SCI has extensive powers in the form of original, appellate and advisory jurisdictions. The year 2019 has been very important for India in case of judicial decisions taken by SCI. In this article, we are sharing the landmark judgments of 2019 which have been passed by the Supreme Court of India. Given below are few of the decisions well taken by the SCI in favor of justice: 5. Chief Justice of India Accused in Sexual Harassment Case Chief Justice of India, Mr Ranjan Gogoi was accused by an ex-staff of the Supreme Court of India that Justice Gogoi tried to sexually harass the ex-staff twice in the month of October (when Mr Gogoi sworn as the CJI). • Mr. Gogoi denied all the charges he was accused saying that he was not guilty and stated that all the charges against him are ‘false’ and something to ‘destabilize the judiciary’. • The ex-employee filed an affidavit on April 19, 2019. After doing so, an in-house committee of 3 judges was formed consisting of two female judges to look into the case thoroughly. • It is worth noticing that the details of the inquiry were never made public due to which many people felt that this method was unfair and discriminatory to the victim.

  • Making of a Soldier “IF DEATH STRIKE BEFORE I PROVE MY BLOOD, I SWEAR I ‘LL KILL DEATH” - CAPT MANOJ KUMAR PANDEY
    No. 02/2018BAATCHEETwww.indianarmy.gov.in | February 2018 MAKING OF A SOLDIER “IF DEATH STRIKE BEFORE I PROVE MY BLOOD, I SWEAR I ‘LL KILL DEATH” - CAPT MANOJ KUMAR PANDEY INDIAN ARMY IS GUIDED BY THOUGHTS OF INDIAN PEOPLE AND IDEAS OF EXCELLENCE War memorial (A series covering War Memorials across the country to remember our soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the line of duty) TANOT WAR MEMORIAL The history of Tanot War Memorial is associated with two major wars fought between India and Pakistan in the years 1965 and 1971. A Victory Stupa stands tall in the temple premises bearing testimony to the success and valour of Indian Army in both the wars. It serves as a mark of remembrance for the glorious sacrifices made by our soldiers in line of duty. It salutes the brave hearts who feared nothing and laid down their lives while defending their motherland. SADHEWALA WAR MEMORIAL The heroic saga of the ‘Battle of Laungewala’ remains incomplete without the mention of the action at Sadhewala, a small hamlet in the midst of the Thar Desert. In memory of those who laid down their life for their motherland, this memorial was constructed by 3 GRENADIERS during their tenure in Jaipur . 2 | February 2018 In this Issue……. FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Every citizen plays his role as per his ability but the role, which a soldier plays while safeguarding the frontiers of the motherland, is most important and unique. A soldier lives for the nation and dies for her dignity. Hence the training of a soldier is a bedrock of Indian Army.

  • Statement Issued by Shri P. Chidambaram, Shri Rajeev Gowda and Shri Salman Soz
    Statement issued by Shri P. Chidambaram, Shri Rajeev Gowda and Shri Salman Soz An Economy in Deep Trouble: The Modi-Jaitley Legacy As it becomes evident that the Modi government is on its way out, the BJP’s desperation has visibly grown. With each passing day, as Mr Modi indulges in vile rhetoric, the Finance Minister blogs poor attempts at rationalising that language. Between the rhetoric and the blogging, this government has forgotten the economy. The next government has a huge task of reviving the economy. Thankfully, the Congress Party is ready to steer the Indian economy out of the Modi-Jaitley slump. The worrying "macro-economic" indicators The Indian economy has entered a disastrous phase of economic slowdown under the Modi-Jaitley jugalbandi reflected by the consistent fall in quarterly growth of real GDP. A massive shortfall of Rs.1.6 lakh crore in the tax revenues would effectively increase the actual fiscal deficit to 3.9%. The economy is expected to slow down further. The Finance Minister has perfected the art of concealing data and projecting doctored information. Contrary to the false narratives of the Modi Government, the poorest Indians have been worst sufferers of the economic mismanagement. Oxfam's Global Inequality report 2018 showed that 73% of the wealth generated in India in 2017-2018 was pocketed by the richest 1% of the Indian populace while the poorest 50% saw a marginal increase of 1% in their wealth over the same period. The “Naukri Vinash” PM Mr. Modi is the first Prime Minister whose legacy will be of a “Job Destroying PM”, built on the two "Tughlaqi Farmans" of Demonetization and Gabbar Singh Tax.

  • Sino-Indian Nuclear Deterrence: Factors and Developments
    SINO-INDIAN NUCLEAR DETERRENCE: FACTORS AND DEVELOPMENTS By Shawn Bray Vienna Center for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation EU Non-Proliferation and Disarmament Consortium internship and research completed from November 2018 to January 2019 under the supervision of Laura Rockwood, Executive Director of the Vienna Center for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation (VCDNP). I. Introduction India and China have been on the precipice of conflict several times in the last sixty years. Since their short-lived war in 1962, which saw a Chinese victory, there has been serious strategic competition between the two countries. Demographically, India and China host the two largest populations on earth and are two of the strongest growing economies. As strategic competitors in the nuclear domain, China has historically focused more on deterrence towards larger powers because of greater concerns about the power players in the region (the USSR and the US), which had rapidly expanding nuclear programmes. With India’s nuclear tests in 1998, China now had another nuclear competitor in the region. In the conventional military domain, both countries have undergone massive modernisation programmes. The Indian government has attributed its conventional modernisation to China’s actions in the same field. In the nuclear domain, India is a young power, still growing into its role in the region as it seeks to develop a credible nuclear doctrine that would deter any sort of aggression from the surrounding powers of Pakistan and China. Conversely, China feels surrounded by nuclear umbrella states of the US, a fair-weather ally in Russia and an increasingly adversarial nuclear weapons possessor India.

Context: Recently, opposition parties discussed future course of action on the issue of alleged tampering of EVMs. They raised their concern regarding EVMs with Election Commission. Credibility of EVMs were questioned in the previous General elections of Parliament and State Assemblies. Out of 120 democratic countries only 25 have experimented with or used electronic voting machines to elect their governments. It indicates that EVM is not a dominant choice globally for recording votes in elections. Background: India is the world leader in the use of EVMs. The Election Commission has been conducting all elections through EVMs since 2001.The Indian EVM is a direct recording device, which is a stand-alone machine. The Election Commission has clarified several times that Indian EVMs don't talk to any machine outside its own system - be it through wired network, internet, satellite, and Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The EVM is not connected to server, so cyber hacking of Indian EVMs is not possible unless an authorised person acts with malafide intention. In 2014, a whopping 55.38 crore people cast their votes in EVMs in the parliamentary elections. 2 facebook.com/kasmentor www.kasmentor.com 9061474766/9061484877 Analysis EVM challenge: Forensic Lab test for EVMs Throughout these years, the Election Commission has denied all the claims of EVM tampering and in 2017, it got a scientific proof to back up its claim.
