OccupationaL Classification One of the many unique features of the 1961 Census consists of the two-way classification of non-agricultural workers by industry and occupation. While industry refers to the kind of establishment in which the person works, the occupation of a person is the kind of work which he or she performs, due regard being paid to the condition under which it is performed. The nature of the factory, business or service in which the person is employed has no bearing upon the clqssification of his occu­ pation, except to the extent that it enables the nature of his duties to be more clec:lrly defined. For example, a cjane driver may be employed in a shipyard, an engineering work or in building and construction, but this has no bearing upon his occupation and all crane drivers are classified to the same occupation group. It must be clear from what has been stated above that the exact implication of the term 'occupation' as used in the present Census differs from the concept attributed to it in the past Census~s when it used to indicate generally the means of subsistence or livelihood of the supporting sector of the economy.

  • Swachh Bharat Abhiyan Mission Odisha
    Swachh Bharat Abhiyan Mission Odisha Executive Summary The goal of this study is to evaluate specific aspects of the Swachh Bharat Mission. To understand this, we developed a sentiment polarity indicator based on the media data extracted from a variety of sources such as newspapers and magazines both on the state and national levels. Geographically, the study will focus specifically on rural areas in the state of Odisha. The data we have gathered consists of 5250 pieces of written textual data in more than 291 newspapers and other media types covering the time period from August 2014 until April 2016. The study concentrated on several aspects of the media coverage of the mission. First of all, we observe how National and Regional publications covered different aspects of the SBM’s mission. Results from this part of the study indicate that focus of topic preferences differ widely between Oriya and English publications. One of the biggest disparities between the coverage of the national and regional papers is observed within two categories: coverage of the Third Party Involvement (TPI) and Information, Education and Communication (IEC) activities within the mission. While almost half (48%) of the national coverage focused on the IEC, only 30% of Oriya articles were dedicated to the topic. Third Party Involvement (TPI) was covered 25% of the time by the national publications and 15% by Oriya publications. Both national and regional papers devoted approximately similar percentage of their coverage to the themes of Quality and Behavioral Change. Lastly, the theme of Gender received the least amount of coverage from both types of publications.

  • OIDA International Conference on Sustainable Development 2013
    OIDA International Conference on Sustainable Development 2013 Session Human Rights and Good Governance Accepted Abstracts Judicial Academy Chandigarh India. December 04 - 05, 2013 Ref#: 007/IND/13 Equality through Positive Discrimination in Education: A Utopian Dream of India Abhinav Gaur a, Vikram Shah b a Symbiosis Law School, Noida, India. a Corresponding authour: [email protected] Abstract Positive discrimination is an institutionalized way of enabling those historically disadvantaged by a political system to participate in public life. Also known as Reverse Gender Bias, it precisely means to positively discriminate against members of a dominant or majority group or in favor of members of a minority or historically disadvantaged group. In other words, it is a criterion of selecting representatives of different groups as a way of addressing the existing social inequalities The Egalitarian theory of ‘equality among equals’ is well found in the jurisprudence of Indian Legal System. But the theory of Positive discrimination gives a legal sanction to push down someone with more capabilities, and its worse when it is in the arena of education. The question of stringent impact of positive discrimination policies in education sector have not only enraged the youth in India but also have attracted debates among veterans in different spheres. This comes as a surprise that positive discrimination as a whole and in education in particular is a much argued upon issue in India and the amounts spent to promote education for the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes is the largest budget of the compensatory discrimination policies. The most striking part is that policy of positive discrimination has not only penetrated deep into current education industry but also is digging deep into employment sector, with the reservation in promotional designations in public sector as well.
