Services Day When? • The Civil Services Day is celebrated on April 21 What? • The day celebrates all the civil servants who dedicate their lives to the cause of citizen. The day aims at renewing their commitments to public service and excellence in work. • To mark the Civil Services Day, the country rewards the Prime Minister’s Awards for Excellence in Public Administration to various officers to celebrate their work, for implementation of Priority programme and innovation categories. Why? • Its origin is related to the year 1947 when on 21st April Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel, first Home Minister of independent India inaugurated the All India Services. • While addressing the probationary officers at the All India Administrative Service Training School at Metcalfe House, Delhi (it currently houses offices of many divisions of DRDO) he delivered a powerful speech and empowered the Civil Servants to adopt the true role of national service leaving behind the past experience. In his speech he referred to civil servants as the 'steel frame of India’. 2. Indian Civil Services Cornwallis’ Role (Governor-General, 1786-93) • Cornwallis was the first to bring into existence and organise the civil services. He tried to check corruption through— ✓raising the civil servants’ salary ✓strict enforcement of rules against private trade ✓Debarring civil servants from taking presents, bribes etc. ✓enforcing promotions through seniority • Wellesley’s Role (Governor-General, 1798-1805) ✓In 1800, Wellesley set up the Fort William College for training of new recruits. ✓In 1806 Wellesley’s college was disapproved by the Court of Directors and instead the East India College was set up at Haileybury in England to impart two years’ training to the recruits. ✓The Charter Act of 1793 had reserved all posts worth 500 pounds per annum for the covenanted servants of the Company. ✓The Indians, however, were barred from high posts from the very beginning. The reasons for exclusion of Indians were • the belief that only the English could establish administrative services serving British interests; • the belief that the Indians were incapable, untrustworthy and insensitive to the British interests; www.sleepyclasses.com Available on App Store Call 6280133177 and Play Store 2 T.me/SleepyClasses • The fact there was high competition among the Europeans themselves for lucrative posts, so why offer them to the Indians. • The Charter Act of 1833 theoretically threw open the services to the Indians, the relevant provisions were never really implemented. Charter Act of 1853 • The 1853 Charter Act ended the Company’s patronage, enjoining recruitment to be through an open competition henceforth. • After 1857, when the Indians claimed a share in higher services, the Proclamation of 1858 declared the British intention of including the Indians, freely and impartially, in offices under the civil service. Indian Civil Service Act, 1861 • This Act reserved certain offices for convenanted civil servants but the examination was held in England in English language, based on classical learning of Greek and Latin.

The presiding deities of Puri are Lord Jagannath, Goddess Subhadra and Lord Balabhadra, who all adorn the sanctum of Shri Jagannath Temple, Puri, the 12th century architectural marvel. Rath Yatra is the annual festival of presiding deities, who are taken on giant chariots (Rath) dragged by thousands of devotees. The celebration continues for 11 days during which period about two million of devotees congregate in the Holy Dham of Puri. Nabakalebar, the periodical ceremonial re-embodiment of the wooden idols of Lord Jagannath, Devi Subhadra, Lord Balabhadra and Lord Sudarshan, normally falls after a gap of 19 years though on certain occasions it takes place after a gap of 12 years. The last Nabakalebar of the deities took place in the year-1996. Due to improvement of infrastructure including road and railway connectivity to Puri, more than five million congregation was anticipated during Nabakalebar-2015. Keeping in view the safety, security, law and order and traffic management of mega festival, Nabakalebar-2015, elaborate Police arrangements were made by the Odisha Police for this occasion.

However in absence of marketing even this quantity is not sold out quickly as one would expect but is usually sold in lieu of regular stamps at the post office counters to finish it off. Philately is now considered as an industry worldwide with postal administrations, philatelists, stamp dealers, and philatelic journalists and publishers as recognized stake holders in it. Therefore we in India must change and stop expecting the post office to do every thing for us.

  • The Kamaiya System of Bonded Labour in Nepal

    The Kamaiya System of Bonded Labour in Nepal

    Nepal Case Study on Bonded Labour Final1 1 THE KAMAIYA SYSTEM OF BONDED LABOUR IN NEPAL INTRODUCTION The origin of the kamaiya system of bonded labour can be traced back to a kind of forced labour system that existed during the rule of the Lichhabi dynasty between 100 and 880 AD (Karki 2001:65). The system was re-enforced later during the reign of King Jayasthiti Malla of Kathmandu (1380–1395 AD), the person who legitimated the caste system in Nepali society (BLLF 1989:17; Bista 1991:38-39), when labourers used to be forcibly engaged in work relating to trade with Tibet and other neighbouring countries. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the Gorkhali and Rana rulers introduced and institutionalised new forms of forced labour systems such as Jhara,1 Hulak2, Beth3 and Begar4 (Regmi, 1972 reprint 1999:102, cited in Karki, 2001). The later two forms, which centred on agricultural works, soon evolved into such labour relationships where the workers became tied to the landlords being mortgaged in the same manner as land and other property. These workers overtimes became permanently bonded to the masters. The kamaiya system was first noticed by anthropologists in the 1960s (Robertson and Mishra, 1997), but it came to wider public attention only after the change of polity in 1990 due in major part to the work of a few non-government organisations. The 1990s can be credited as the decade of the freedom movement of kamaiyas. Full-scale involvement of NGOs, national as well as local, with some level of support by some political parties, in launching education classes for kamaiyas and organising them into their groups culminated in a kind of national movement in 2000.
