    Editors’ Note Teachers in charge: Mrs. Jyotsna Khanna Mrs. Jhimli Mitra Mrs. Aruna Madhusudan Front cover credits: Sakshi Dey Back cover credits: Sanjana Unni Divya Rangarajan Aakarsh Kankaria Our city went from the Chennai floods to the Chennai drought in two years. The contradiction is appalling and there is no one to blame but ourselves. We have been taking this resource for granted for far too long and its implications are now upon us. Being residents of Chennai, we felt the need to spread awareness on this issue. That was the primary reason for choosing this theme-Where’s My Water? People seem to remember this problem for one week but forget it in the next. We realized that we needed to communicate the message in a different manner. Thereby, we decided to talk about the benefits of water, reminding everyone of the abundant resources that water provides us with and why we need to conserve it. In this edition of Newsish, we have addressed the various facets of water including movies, wars, sunken ships and cities, lost treasures, wonders, machines, sports, and religious aspects. We would like to thank Omana Ma’am and all the teachers involved for giving us the opportunity to make this an E-Magazine. The idea behind opting for an online magazine was to put an end to the large amount of paper wastage we were incurring by publishing a printed edition.

His first novel, Swami and Friends (1935), and its successor, The Bachelor of Arts (1937), are both set in the fictional territory of Malgudi, of which John Updike wrote, “Few writers since Dickens can match the effect of colorful teeming that Narayan’s fictional city of Malgudi conveys; its population is as sharply chiseled as a temple frieze, and as endless, with always, one feels, more characters round the corner.” Narayan wrote many more novels set in Malgudi, including The English Teacher (1945), The Financial Expert (1952), and The Guide (1958), which won him the Sahitya Akademi (India’s National Academy of Letters) Award, his country’s highest honor.

During the late '80s and the '90s, a flurry of sadhu activism coincided with the dramatic rise of a previously insignificant political party, the Bhartiya JanataParty (BJP). As a conservative Hindu nationalist party, the BJP allied with many sadhus, came to power at the center and in many states, breaking the monopoly that the relatively secular Congress party had held for more than four decades.

Lybbert, University of California, Davis David J. Spielman, International Food Policy Research Institute Selected Paper prepared for presentation at the Agricultural & Applied Economics Association’s 2014 AAEA Annual Meeting, Minneapolis, MN, July 27‐29, 2014.

The Public Benefits of Private Technology Adoption Anil K. Bhargava, Travis J. Lybbert and David Spielman May 2014 1 Introduction The recent acceleration of climate change due to global warming has been linked to erratic and extreme weather patterns around the globe. India’s drought in 2012 was its fourth in the previous 12 years, and the United Nations World Meteorological Society projects the frequency, intensity and duration of these to increase. Moreover, future monsoon rains–on which Indian agriculture relies– are expected to be heavier but shorter in duration, reducing the amount of water table recharge. Among the most vulnerable to the fallout from these climate changes are the poorest farmers who have the fewest opportunities to adapt through alternative livelihoods or adopting conservation agriculture techniques. Much has been written about possible reasons for low uptake of high return agricultural practices, such as the higher risk, lack of information, liquidity constraints, and credit and insurance market failures. This paper builds on recent analyses of farmer demand and private returns to resource conserv- ing technology in India by evaluating total benefits inclusive of those accruing to nonadopters.
