MP Shri. Anil Shirole in a Nutshell Average 95.28% Attendance in the Parliament, Which Is Above the National Average (83%), and State Average (81%) Appropriate Direction, Explicit Strategies… 1 Namaskar! In the year 2014, during the Lok Sabha elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party approached the people for a mandate based on their promise of a progressive and corruption free governance. The citizens of India responded in an overwhelming manner and gave us the power to rule single handedly. On 26th May, under the able leadership of Hon. Prime Minister Shri. Narendra Modi, we took up the reigns of power and since then we have embarked on our journey of achieving sustainable progress for the country. With a view to reinforcing the power of the party at the centre, the people of Maharashtra have voted in favour of the Bharatiya Janata Party and bestowed the responsibility of governing the state also upon the Party. The people of Pune have elected me and other candidates of our party from eight constituencies. We achieved this phenomenal success because the people yearned for liberation, ‘Free us from corruption and accelerate the chariot of development', they said. The nation has experienced clean, unblemished governance for the past 24 months. Decisions are taken with a view towards long- term development of the future generations and are not merely meant to win popularity. While I am completing two 2 years of my tenure as a Member of Parliament, the Central Government also completes its second year in power, I feel it is very important and necessary to establish a dialogue with you. I wish to reiterate some of the decisions taken by the Central Government. I also wish to draw your attention to some of the important decisions made by the State Government and place a brief record of the work I have done so far. It is with this intention that I am presenting this report to you. The Parliament plays a major role in analyzing carefully and incorporating various policies approved by the government in the proper legal framework. I am playing my role as a Member of Parliament very honestly and meticulously. I am also fulfi lling my duties as a responsible and sensitive representative of my city. For the past twenty- fi ve years, every one harped on the opinion that for the development of Pune city, it was necessary to establish, Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA). However, while the notifi cation of its formation was issued during the UPA regime; PMRDA actually came into existence at a time when BJP is ruling at the center. It has opened the doors to the construction of a ring road around the city, paved the way for systematic development and planned growth of the city in the future. The ‘JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency) Project’ meant to clean the water of the river, which fl ows through the city, is in progress. The promises I made regarding the selection of Pune city for the Smart Cities Mission as well as the grant of ‘One Rank, One Pension’ to retired army personnel are now a reality. The Central Government has introduced schemes such as ‘Prime Minister’s Jan- Dhan Yojana’ and ‘Atal Pension Yojana’, to ensure that the commonest of the common Indian receives fi nancial and health related security. I have made eff orts to draw a large number of Pune citizens to benefi t from these schemes. We have received a massive response to these schemes. A strong organizational system has to be in place so that one is easily accessible to the public. I have been successful in developing the confi dence in the people that every person who comes to my offi ce fi nds a solution to her or his problem. I am striving for making Pune absolutely problem-free city. This is the quintessence of my work during the past two years. I will always welcome all your suggestions, as they will help me to serve better and fulfi ll my duties satisfactorily. I am thankful to the citizens of Pune, all the state and central ministers, BJP MLAs, BJP offi ce bearers, BJP corporators, colleagues and party workers who have been supporting me from day one to eff ectively execute my duties as a Member of Parliament. Thank you. - Anil Shirole 3 Two Years of Committed Leadership Major Achievements by MP Shri.

  • Self Study Report for NAAC - 3Rd Cycle ( Volume – I )
    Self Study Report for NAAC - 3rd Cycle ( Volume – I ) Submitted to The National Assessment & Accreditation Council Bangalore Submitted by Deccan Education Society’s Fergusson College, Pune Maharashtra May 2015 About Us The founders of Fergusson College had first started New English School, Pune in 1880 and later established the Deccan Education Society (DES) in 1884. This was followed by the bold initiative to start a privately managed college in India, on the 2nd January 1885, naming it as the Fergusson College. The name was given in appreciation of the support of Sir James Fergusson, then Governor of Bombay Province and also the first Patron of the DES. Principal William Wordsworth, the grandson of the famous poet, was the master of the ceremony at the inaugural function of the college. The college received affiliation of University of Bombay and began its onward march in higher education with the opening of the Arts classes, followed in 1892, with the science classes. The college held these classes, for almost ten years, in the old Gadre Wada and other locations in Pune. Presently it is affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, Pune (formerly University of Pune). The foundation stone of the Main building of the Fergusson College was laid in 1892 and the building was completed in 1895. The college started functioning on this campus in 1895. From then onwards, the college has grown academically and acquired a reputation as nation-building institution. It has a place of pride in the hearts of the people, as a historical monument and a symbol of the country’s freedom struggle.

  • Forging a Civil Society: Education and Sports As Strategies in This Chapter
    Forging a Civil Society: Education and Sports as Strategies In this chapter I explore how education and sports became strategies through which the social imaginary 'Marathas' organized capital- symbolic, cultural and social. This chapter is divided into six sections. Section one examines how civic organizations came to be organized during the early colonial period and how it came to be dominated by the Brahmin community. In section two 1 assess the discourses of the non- Brahmin movement regarding the Brahmin domination in the colonial fields and the strategies invoked by them. Section three and four are case studies of a 'Maratha' educational forum. Section five explores how sports becomes a strategy through which the 'martial' imaginary of the 'Marathas' is reinforced. Section six examines the role of 'talims' (gymnasiums) as a site for accumulation of specific forms of cultural capital. I begin with how education is an embodied form and an institutional form of cultural capital. Bourdieu (1985) examines how class reproduction takes place in modem societies generation after generation through the institution of education. He argues that the mode of acquiring what constitutes valued knowledge in schools matches the lifestyle and habitus of the dominant classes. The concept cultural capital was posited to challenge 'human capital,' a concept designed to think consciously or unconsciously, society in terms of a meritocratic system of autonomous individuals who vary in their economically marketable skills and dispositions.
