Khanna, to give their views and observations regarding the Mega Mock Drill. 2. Brig. Khanna, emphasized that there is a difference between man made disasters and natural disasters as in case of natural disasters first responders take time to reach the incident site. He informed that during the drill Delhi Police, Civil Defence and NDRF performed very well. Further he added that during sounding of siren people were running and evacuating and DCH was not exercised. He further added that community has been sensitized about evacuation through this drill but they still need to know that after evacuation they stand at some safer place outside the building. 3. Sh. J. P. Yadav, Commandant, 8th Battalion NDRF, said that the drill was a success. And crowd control has not been a problem during evacuation as the people had already been informed about the drill. Further he added that Delhi Traffic Police did a great job by quickly creating space for emergency vehicles. 4. Mrs. Preeti Baizal, NDMA, congratulated everyone involved in the drill for its successful conductance. She raised a point that there are 2 objectives of Mock Drill:- a) To measure the capability of ESFs and b) To check awareness level of community She added that the Emergency Operation Centre (EOC), at DMC, NDMC, Humayun Road was working very well and the hotlines were in place. 5.

Omvir Singh, DCP, New Delhi District applauded and encourage the district administration for conducting Mega Mock Drill at no. of sites simultaneously. Further he added that for such a big exercise small things do not matter, we are atleast now aware what a major disaster could be and how we have to respond. He said that fully achieved the target of awareness, which is required urgently for community. He further, suggested that the message could be carried forward by discussing the disasters in peer group, in family, in departments and in offices. We will ensure that every community member is fully sensitized and has desire to be prepared. He informed that Delhi Police was lacking in 100 no. response which would be rectified as early as possible. 72 7. Major Nanda Vallabh, Indian Army informed the house that during the real earthquake the devastation would be much higher and we need to be prepared for that. He congratulated NDMA, DDMA (New Delhi) and Departments for their coordination and cooperation to make drill successful. He further, added that there was thorough professionalism in district administration to conduct the drill. Some of the important lessons learnt are as follows:- (i) Need for State-of-the art emergency operation centres at district level with redundancy. (ii) Common communication system for all the stakeholders. (iii) State-of-the-art equipment and systematic inventory of resources. (iv) Need for adequate number of ambulances.

  • Bazaars and Video Games in India
    Bazaars and Video Games in India Maitrayee Deka Abstract This article examines the history of video games in India through the lens of Delhi’s electronic bazaars. As many gamers shifted from playing Atari Games in the 1980s to PlayStation in the 2000s, we see a change in the role that the bazaars play. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, the bazaars were the crucial channels of smuggling video games into India. In the 2000s, the bazaars face competition from official channels. Increasingly, the branded showrooms and online market attract elite consumers who can afford to buy the latest original video game. I argue that, while in the twenty-first century, the electronic bazaars have seen a decline in their former clientele, they now play a new role: they have become open places through the circulation of “obsolete” video games, and the presence of a certain bazaari disposition of the traders. The obsolete games in the form of cartridge, cracked console, and second hand games connect video games to people outside the elite network of corporate and professional new middle class. This alongside the practice of bargaining for settling price creates dense social relationships between a trader and a consumer. Keywords India, video games, bazaars, obsolescence, openness, innovation Introduction The popularity of video games has been elusive in India. Video games appearing as a leisure time activity and the possibility to play a quick game on smartphones add to their casual nature. Even though there are fewer glorifications of video games either as a profession or as a mode of military training, the outreach of video games in the country cannot be ignored.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Texas A&M Repository THE PUBLIC BODY: INDIVIDUAL TACTICS AND ACTIVIST INTERVENTIONS ON THE STREET IN DELHI, INDIA A Thesis by BRIDGET CONLON LIDDELL Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Chair of Committee, Kirsten Pullen Committee Members, Jayson Beaster-Jones Rumya Putcha Jyotsna Vaid Head of Department, Donnalee Dox August 2015 Major Subject: Performance Studies Copyright 2015 Bridget Conlon Liddell ABSTRACT After a brutal and widely publicized gang rape in December 2012, women’s safety in public spaces has been a significant site of debate and discourse about Delhi as a city and India as a country. My Master’s thesis focuses on women’s negotiations of public spaces in Delhi, India. I explore how women in general—and activists in particular—shift Delhi’s public culture, in order to intervene in dominant discourses on women’s agency in India’s capital as well as the dismissive, alienating narratives of the city as hopelessly violent. Jagori, a Delhi-based women’s rights organization, sponsors “The Safe Delhi Campaign” to address the constraints on and challenges of women’s Delhi street experience with a focus on urban design, public transport, and raising public awareness. My project brings a Performance Studies perspective to Jagori’s goals, paying close attention to my interlocutors’ (university-aged female residents and Jagori activists) voices, bodies, and tactics.

    Feedback: Vasudha Mehta 48c Volunteers Manager, Delhi Greens Public 48°C Public·Art·Ecology Festival Art Ecology 48°C Public·Art·Ecology Festival for me was all about communicating ecological messages to the masses and sensitizing them towards the perils of damages that have been inflicted upon our fragile ecology. The Festival required a Volunteer Team that was able to communicate and interpret the ecological messages of individual Art Installation to the general public. The task of finding suitable volunteers was a challenging experience. The search for volunteers began by making visits to the various colleges in Delhi, interacting with their Eco-Clubs and Environmental Society representatives and making the Call for Volunteer well in advance. The bulk of the applications started pouring as the month of December started and by the time the festival started we had volunteer representation from many colleges, including Hansraj, IP College for Women, Hindu College, Daulat Ram College, Khalsa College, School of Environmental Studies, Department of Anthropology, Miranda House, Kirori Mal College, St. Stephens College and also from JNU, Jamia University, College of Art and TVB School of Habitat Studies. Once the Festival started, it was yet another challenge to keep the volunteers enthused and motivated as the first day caught us all by surprise. Few sites were not installed in time and a few were far different from what we had imagined. Each volunteer was provided a Feedback Register, for citizens to share their experience and understanding

This thesis argues that the production, performance, distribution, and consumption of South Asian electronic music can be read under the specter of an aestheticization of the circuits of pirate modernity. Through sampling, glitching, and remixing artifacts, sometimes with pirated software or counterfeit hardware, South Asian electronica situates itself in youth culture as an underground form of sound. This is a music that concerns itself with futurity and futurism, doubly so by its links to the diaspora and to Afrofuturist readings, and with the physicality of the sound wave. The thesis also suggests a shift in the economic and political import of pirate modernity wrought by this aestheticization, examining how it has been appropriated for profit and mobilized for political use.
