  • 7. Know Me: I Am Your Capital City
    7. Know me: I am your Capital City I am your capital city. My name is Jaipur. It is after the name of my founder Raja Jai Singh II. I was founded in 1727. I am popularly known as pink city. It is because of the stone used for the construction of all the structures. I was first painted in pink colour in 1857 to welcome the first visit of the Prince of Wales. I was repainted in 1876 during his second visit. I was planned according to Bhartiya Vastu Shastra by a Bengali architect, Vidhyadhar Bhattacharya. The directions of each road, street and market are East to West and North to South. There is a rampart around me. There are seven gates to enter the city. I am connected with all the parts of Rajasthan and India by air, road and rail network. In 2011 I had a population of more than thirty five lakh. I am the 10th largest city of India as per the census of 2011. I have a semi arid climate. Most of the rainfall occurs in the monsoon months. I have several tourist places. Some of them are; City palace, JantarMantar, Hawamahal, Albert Hall Museum, Amber Fort, Birla Mandir, etc. The State Government rules the state from here. The Raj Bhawan for the Governor. The secretariat is for the offices of the Chief Minister, Other ministers and the administrative officers. There is the Vidhansabha for People’s Representatives.

  • NAMASTE! (Nah-Mahs-Teh) in a Number of India’S Many Languages (Including Hindi), the Word for Hello Greetings, Good-Bye, Etc
    NAMASTE! (Nah-mahs-teh) In a number of India’s many languages (including Hindi), the word for hello greetings, good-bye, etc. Derivatives of this word include namaskar, namaskara & namaskaram. DECEMBER 2018 EDITION (Originally published April 2010) JAIPUR! India is, by its very nature, a land of great contrasts. For instance, it has been listed as both one of the driest & wettest places in the world. At Cherrapunji (in the far northeastern part of the country), it is not unusual for the total annual rainfall to be 40 FEET. In the Great Indian Desert (also called the Thar Desert), rainfall can often be less than 1 inch per year. Take a look at the great metropolitan areas of India. The 6 major ones are Bombay (now called Mumbai), Madras (now Chennai), Calcutta, Delhi, Bangalore and Hyderabad. This is where about 10% of the total population of the country lives. In fact, India has more cities of 1 million or more inhabitants than any other country in the world. On the other hand, India is home to over 600,000 villages that have a population of 5,000 or less. Jaipur is the capital city of Rajasthan. Rajasthan is a place of great contrast to much of the rest of India. It is a desert city, now with a population of at least 6 million people, and is one of the fastest-growing cities in the world. The Rajasthani people are just— well, they are different. They are Indian, to be sure, but with a flair that is not found in other places of the country.

  • Dr BD Kalla Honourable Minister of Art & Culture And
    Dr BD Kalla Honourable Minister of Art & Culture and Archaeology & Museums Albert Hall Museum Ram Niwas Bagh Jaipur 302 005 Rajasthan 12 May 2020 Dear Dr Kalla ji, I am writing to you from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India to request that you protect elephants and public health by permanently ending the use of elephants, some of whom have tested reactive for tuberculosis (TB), for rides at Amer Fort. Scientists believe COVID-19 infected humans via wild animals in China. Exposing the public to another infectious disease (as elephants can transmit TB to humans) is a reckless recipe for disaster that your authority can easily prevent. We strongly encourage your department to issue motorised cart licences to elephant caretakers and mahouts so they can shuttle tourists safely. The Department of Archaeology & Museums is the guardian of Amer Fort in Jaipur, which is a "protected monument" under the Rajasthan Monuments, Archaeological Sites and Antiquities Act, 1961. The department is primarily responsible for activities at Amer Fort, including the elephant rides, the fees for which are fixed in the terms of Schedule II, Part III of the Rajasthan Monuments, Archaeological Sites and Antiquities Rules, 1968 (Annexure 1). Many captive and wild elephants are suffering from TB in our country, including some of those used at Amer Fort, but the tourist attraction can be run without the risk of spreading this infectious disease through the use of carts. An April 2018 report on captive elephants used for rides and other forms of tourist interactions in Jaipur by the Animal Welfare Board of India (AWBI) revealed that 10% of those tested (10 out of 91) were infected with TB (Annexure 2).
