    HOME, PROHIBITION and EXCISE DEPARTMENT TAMIL NADU POLICE DEMAND NO.22 POLICY NOTE 2012 – 2013 I. Introduction: All Through Hi

    HOME, PROHIBITION AND EXCISE DEPARTMENT TAMIL NADU POLICE DEMAND NO.22 POLICY NOTE 2012 – 2013 I. Introduction: All through history the most important duty of a ruler has been the protection of the people from external threats and internal strife. As per the Constitution of India the responsibility of providing security to the people from external aggression is entrusted to the Central Government and that of providing internal security by maintaining public peace and order is entrusted to the State Government. A strong, efficient and disciplined Police Force is necessary for enabling the State to fulfill this responsibility. In view of my strong commitment to ensuring the welfare and security of the people of Tamil Nadu, I have always endeavoured to create such a Police Force. My efforts in 2011-2012 have also underlined this fundamental point very strongly. The Police Department has therefore, under my Government, been functioning with a clear direction to put down the evil doers, thus enabling the common people to pursue their livelihood without fear, in an atmosphere of public tranquillity. The Tamil Nadu Police in its present form originated in 1859 and has completed 152 years of glorious service. Sensing the need to modernise a force that was archaic in its weaponry and steeped in a mindset that maintained an inaccessible distance from the common man, the State embarked upon a modernization programme under my leadership in 1991 which became a trend setter for the Nation. The concept of All Women Police Stations took shape in 1992. The Coastal Security Group was created to intensify vigil along the coastal borders.

    FLOOD FORECASTING AND WARNING NETWORKPERFORMANCEAPPRMSAL 2008 GOVERNMENT OF INDIA CENTRAL WATER COMMISSION FLOOD FORECAST MONITORING DIRECTORATE NEW DELHI - 110066 Feb,2010 PREFACE Central Water Commission had made a small beginning in Flood Forecasting & Warning service in India in November 1958 with .one forecasting station at Delhi, the national capital, on the river Yamuna. Today, its network of Flood Forecasting and Warning Stations has gradually extended over the years and covers almost all the major inter-state flood prone river basins throughout the country. The network comprised of 175 Flood Forecasting Stations including 28 inflow forecast during the year 2008, in 9 major river basins and 71 sub basins of the country. It covered 15 states besides NCT Delhi and UT of Dadra & Nagar Haveli. The flood forecasting activities of the Commission are being performed every year from May to October through its 21 field divisions which issue flood forecasts and warnings to the civil authorities of the states as well as to other organizations of the central & state governments, as and when the river water level touches or is expected to touch the warning level at the flood forecasting stations. The flood season 2008 witnessed unprecedented flood events in recent history. Both the river Subarnarekha at Rajghat and river Ghaghra at Ayodhya had once again recorded in 2008 a fresh "unprecedented Flood", for the second consecutive year after experiencing a similar event in 2007. In addition, "unprecedented Flood" was recorded on river Puthimari at N.H.Road crossing, river Devi, a distributory of river Mahanadi at Alipingal and Gharghra at Elgin Bridge.

The orange crop plays a vital role within the economy of the region. Among the fruit crops, orange crop covers about 45,226 ha area in Vidarbha. There is still a good potential toward bringing a lot of area below orange in Vidarbha region. The present paper analyses the information behaviour of orange growers concerning the production of the oranges. The various types of constraints confronted by the orange grower related to production of orange are rootstock availability, labour availability, manures and fertilizers, irrigation, plant protection, capital, availability of loan from co-operative society, technical information, use of growth regulator, supporting and constraints confronted by the orange grower related to marketing of orange are Grading, Transportation, Sale of produce, Packaging, Storage. The study was conducted in the purposively selected Amravati district of the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra state. Five Panchayat Samities from Amravati district were hand-picked purposively covering ten villages from every Panchayat Samiti.

Director General Tele : 91-11-23731956 Fax : 91-11-23731746 E-mail : [email protected] FOREWORD The national response to HIV/AIDS in India over the last decade has yielded encouraging outcomes in terms of prevention and control of HIV. However, in recent years, while declining HIV trends are evident at the national level as well as in most of the States, some low prevalence and vulnerable States have shown rising trends, warranting focused prevention efforts in specific areas. The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) is strongly evidence-based and evidence-driven. Based on evidence from ‘Triangulation of Data’ from multiple sources and giving due weightage to vulnerability, the organizational structure of NACP has been decentralized to identified districts for priority attention. The programme has been successful in creating a robust database on HIV/AIDS through the HIV Sentinel Surveillance system, monthly programme reporting data and various research studies.
  • Militancy Among Minority Groups: the Protection-Group Policing Dynamic

    Militancy Among Minority Groups: the Protection-Group Policing Dynamic

    Militancy Among Minority Groups: The Protection-Group Policing Dynamic Word Count: 12,000 Saurabh Pant∗ University of Essex October 7, 2020 Abstract When does militancy emerge among minorities? This paper presents an understudied but important dynamic and develops a formal model illustrating how the state can influence minority militant mobilization. In many contexts, minorities face the threat of indiscriminate retaliation from non-state sources if violent transgressions are committed by someone from their community. Insufficient protection from this threat incentivizes minority members to police their group in order to prevent militancy from emerging within their community. The actions and characteristics of the state shape these perceptions of protection. Therefore, the strategic tensions in this protection-group policing dynamic occur within the minority group and between the minority group and the state. I thus develop a formal model to study how the interaction between state capacity and state willingness - two important aspects of the state - can influence the onset of minority militancy through this dynamic. The model can account for the variation in the extent and types of militancy that would emerge. Through the protection-group policing dynamic, the model counterintuitively demonstrates how low-capacity states can provide less conducive environments for minority militancy than high-capacity states, and it provides a new explanation for why small-scale militancy is more likely in higher capacity states. ∗I would like to thank Daniela Barba Sanchez, Michael Becher, Mark Beissinger, Kara Ross Camarena, Thomas Chadefaux, Casey Crisman-Cox, Matias Iaryczower, Amaney Jamal, Danielle Jung, Amanda Kennard, Nikitas Konstantinidis, Jennifer Larson, Andrew Little, Philip Oldenburg, Robert Powell, Kristopher Ramsay, Peter Schram, Jacob Shapiro, Sondre Solstad, Karine Van Der Straeten, Keren Yarhi- Milo, and Deborah Yashar for helpful comments.
