Analysis: Most important dimensions of the Vision 2030: 1. To build physical as well as social infrastructure and to provide ease of living. 2. To create a Digital India, digitize government processes with leaders from youth. 3. Making India pollution-free by leading transport revolution with Electric Vehicles and focus on Renewables. 4.

Scale up Sagarmala, develop other inland waterways faster, harness India’s long coastline and oceans to power India’s development and growth. 7. Aim at our space programme – Gaganyaan, India becoming the launch-pad of satellites for the world and placing an Indian astronaut into space by 2022. 8. Making India self-sufficient in food, exporting to the world to meet global food needs and producing food in the most organic way. 9. A healthy India via Ayushman Bharat with women having equal rights, ensuring their safety and promoting their empowerment. 10. Transforming India into a ‘Minimum Government, Maximum Governance’ nation with pro-active and responsible bureaucracy. Summary: The aim of this comprehensive 10-dimensional Vision is to create an India where poverty, malnutrition, littering and illiteracy would be a matter of the past. India would be a modern, technology driven, high growth, equitable and transparent society. PRELIMS CARDINAL : Highlights of Interim Budget 2019-20: DLSC 3 Govt. Schemes at a glance: 2. Not really bullish on native cow breeds News: DLSC Farmers who rear the best indigenous breeds of cattle win prizes from the government. The Finance Minister Piyush Goyal announced the allotment of ₹750 crore to the Rashtriya Gokul Mission (RGM). 4 Analysis: Rashtriya Gokul Mission: Potential to enhance the productivity of the indigenous breeds of India through professional farm management & superior nutrition is immense. For this it is essential to promote conservation and development of indigenous breeds. The “Rashtriya Gokul Mission” aims to conserve and develop indigenous breeds in a focused and scientific manner. The objective is to get native breeds to produce more milk, be more fecund, and to raise the quality of Indian cows and bulls. The mission draws inspiration from Article 48 of the Constitution (Organisation of agriculture and animal husbandry), which states as below- “The State shall endeavour to organise agriculture and animal husbandry on modern and scientific lines and shall, in particular, take steps for preserving and improving the breeds, and prohibiting the slaughter, of cows and calves and other milch and draught cattle.” Objectives: To undertake breed improvement program for indigenous cattle breeds so as to improve genetic makeup and increase the stock. To upgrade nondescript cattle using elite indigenous breeds like Gir, Sahiwal, Rathi, Tharparkar, Red Sindhi. To enhance milk production and productivity of indigenous bovines to eventually outdo Jerseys and Holsteins. To distribute disease free high genetic merit bulls of indigenous breeds for natural service. Components: Establishment of Village level Integrated Indigenous Cattle Centres viz Gokul Gram Strengthening of bull mother farms to conserve high genetic merit Indigenous Breeds Establishment of Field Performance Recording (FPR) in the breeding tract. Assistance to Institutions/lnstitutes which are repositories of best germplasm Implementation of Pedigree Selection Programme for the Indigenous Breeds with large population Establishing Gopalan Sangh - Breeder’s Societies Distribution of disease free high genetic merit bulls for natural service. Incentive to farmers maintaining elite animals of indigenous breeds Award to Farmers (Gopal Ratna) and Breeders” Societies (Kamadhenu) Organization of Milk Yield Competitions for indigenous breeds Organization of Training Programme for technical and non technical Criticism: Though the minister talked of “cow welfare” and “farmer distress”, the RGM doesn’t look at ageing and unproductive cattle, which pose a problem to the farmers. Advantages of Indigenous breeds: IndigenousDLSC cattle (categorized as Zebu) are well known for their quality of heat tolerance and ability to withstand extreme climatic conditions. They also provide cow dung (organic manure), cow urine (medicinal value) and are suited for draught power because of the presence of a hump. 5 Studies indicate that temperature rise due to global warming will negatively impact milk production. The annual loss in milk production of cattle and buffaloes due to thermal stress in 2020 will be about 3.2 million tonnes of milk costing more than Rs 5000 Crore at current price rate. The decline in milk production and reproductive efficiency will be highest in crossbred cattle followed by buffaloes.

    CURRENT AFFAIRS= 07-09-2020 KESAVANANDA BHARATI Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed grief over the passing away of Kesavananda Bharati Ji. About: Kesavananda Bharati was the head seer of the Edneer Mutt in Kasaragod district of Kerala since 1961. He left his signature in one of the significant rulings of the Supreme Court when he challenged the Kerala land reforms legislation in 1970. The Kesavananda Bharati judgement, is a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of India that outlined the basic structure doctrine of the Constitution. Justice Hans Raj Khanna asserted through the Basic Structure doctrine that the constitution possesses a basic structure of constitutional principles and values. The doctrine forms the basis of power of the Indian judiciary to review and override amendments to the Constitution of India enacted by the Indian parliament. MOPLAH REBELLION A report submitted to the Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) in 2016 had recommended the removal of the Wagon Tragedy victims and Malabar Rebellion leaders Ali Musliyar and Variamkunnath Ahmad Haji, and Haji’s two brothers from a book on martyrs of India’s freedom struggle. CROSS & CLIMB 2019 1 About: The report sought the removal of names of 387 ‘Moplah rioters’ from the list of martyrs. The book, Dictionary of Martyrs: India’s Freedom Struggle 1857-1947, was released by Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week. The report describes Haji as the “notorious Moplah Riot leader” and a “hardcore criminal,” who “killed innumerable innocent Hindu men, women, and children during the 1921 Moplah Riot, and deposited their bodies in a well, locally known as Thoovoor Kinar”.

Bees collection was done using standard sweep net, to collect free range bees species on the sites. Standard yellow pan traps were also set using pineapple as bait to entice bees. Trapped bees were collected and baits were changed on daily basis. The bees were described and identified to species level using existing bee taxonomic keys. Host plants visited by the bee species were identified in the Natural History Museum Herbarium (UNIFEM) and Department of Botany Herbarium (IFE) in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.

  • UAS – Low Hanging Fruit India Still to Pluck
    01/21 UAS – Low Hanging Fruit India Still to Pluck Air Marshal Anil Chopra PVSM AVSM VM VSM (Retd) Director General, CAPS 22 April 2021 Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) began making unmanned aerial system (UAS) with the Fluffy target drone in 1970s, which was replaced by the reusable, subsonic, pilotless target aircraft Lakshya that first flew in 1985. Around 30 were produced and operated by all the services. The advanced version Lakshya-II was flight-tested in January 2012. In March 2017, Air Force version of Lakshya-II was flight tested. The Army-centric Nishant is a multi-mission UAS with day/night capability for battlefield surveillance and targeting, and was first flown in August 1996. DRDO claimed it equivalent of IAI’s Searcher. Finally only four were built. A wheeled version of the Nishant UAS, named “Panchi” is known to be under development. There are a large number of DRDO UAS projects since 1985, but what really counts is, what gets inducted into the Armed Forces. That number after nearly 45 years should have been much higher. DRDO’s Rustom Series Rustom-1 was evolved from Burt Rutan’s Long-EZ with 250 km range, for visual and radar surveillance. It was to be a tactical UAV with endurance of 12 hours, and made its first flight in November 2009. Rustom-H, is a larger UAV was with flight endurance of over 24 hours. TAPAS-BH- 201 (Rustom-2) Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) UAV has been derived from the National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL) LCRA (Light Canard Research Aircraft), and is meant to supplement the Heron UAVs in service.
