  • In 2020, India Dealt with the First Wave of COVID-19 Pandemic With
    PREFACE n 2020, India dealt with the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic with collective measures, Iscientific approach, and awareness. Undoubtedly the second wave of the pandemic is testing our patience and the extent to which we can all tolerate its fangs. The impact of the second wave has seen shortage of medical oxygen across the nation. But, the intelligent use of technology and well-planned resource allocation to tackle the new wave of the pandemic has been dealt with at a war-footing. The current edition, COVID 2021: Nation’s S&T Efforts Against COVID-19, has been compiled to inform our readers and strengthen the usefulness of any published information. This edition contains compilation and coverage of information related to the capacity enhancement of medical oxygen, start-up spotlights, research contributions, and so on. To bridge the gap among scientific contributions, leadership and administrative efforts, and the perspective of the general public, Vigyan Prasar is continuously reaching out to its audiences in the shape of a regular e-newsletter, taking its mandate of science communication, popularisation and extension to the next level. Our effort is firmly based on the fact that “Science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom”. The steady increase in the number of recoveries and the significant and continuous decrease in positivity rate provide us the much-needed assurance that this may be the outcome of improving the health infrastructure and making health the cornerstone at the policy level. We wish an engaging reading to our audiences across all strata of the society and look forward to suggestions and feedback at [email protected].

    April 2019 | 1 Monthly Updates On CURRENT AFFAIRS APRIL 2019 NATIONAL A 14 days‟ joint training exercise, MITRA SHAKTI VI, between Indian Army and the Sri Lankan Army held at Diyatalawa Parade Ground in Badulla District of Sri Lanka. It was the sixth edition of the joint exercise between these two nations. The exercise was conducted from 26th March 2019 to 08th April 2019. According to World Press Freedom Index 2019 released by an International NGO, „Reporters without Borders‟, India has dropped to two places down on a global press freedom index to be ranked 140th out of 180 countries. The index is based on the assessment of the countries‟ press freedom records in the previous year. The report is partly based on a questionnaire which asked questions about pluralism, media independence, environment and self-censorship, legislative framework, transparency, and infrastructure. India is ranked at 19th position with a score of 64.9 out of 28 countries in the Index of Cancer Preparedness (ICP) released by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU). It is released as part of the report titled “Cancer preparedness around the world: National readiness for a global epidemic” by EIU. The ICP explores the issue of cancer preparedness through three broad domains i.e. policy and planning, care delivery, health systems, and governance. In eLearning training, Telangana state has ranked number one by reaching to 20,000 field staff during 2018-19. This is the second year in succession that the State got the distinction under the Department of Personal and Training (DoPT). During the last two years, over 40,000 field staff belonging to different departments have been trained in the State.

  • Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As Of, January 27, 2015) Elections • in Israel, Elections for the Knesset A
    Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As of, January 27, 2015) Elections In Israel, elections for the Knesset are held at least every four years. As is frequently the case, the outgoing government coalition collapsed due to disagreements between the parties. As a result, the Knesset fell significantly short of seeing out its full four year term. Knesset elections in Israel will now be held on March 17, 2015, slightly over two years since the last time that this occurred. The Basics of the Israeli Electoral System All Israeli citizens above the age of 18 and currently in the country are eligible to vote. Voters simply select one political party. Votes are tallied and each party is then basically awarded the same percentage of Knesset seats as the percentage of votes that it received. So a party that wins 10% of total votes, receives 10% of the seats in the Knesset (In other words, they would win 12, out of a total of 120 seats). To discourage small parties, the law was recently amended and now the votes of any party that does not win at least 3.25% of the total (probably around 130,000 votes) are completely discarded and that party will not receive any seats. (Until recently, the “electoral threshold,” as it is known, was only 2%). For the upcoming elections, by January 29, each party must submit a numbered list of its candidates, which cannot later be altered. So a party that receives 10 seats will send to the Knesset the top 10 people listed on its pre-submitted list.

Indian National Congress: Compendium of Statements, Letters and Resolutions on COVID-19 (March 2020 - June 2021)…………………………………… A1 Executive Summary The mismanagement of the COVID-19 pandemic has been independent India’s gravest governance failure. The Union government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not take adequate measures to prevent and contain the pandemic. Therefore, there is a Need for a White Paper (Chapter-1) that examines the government’s acts of omission and commission, its impact on India and suggests constructive measures to improve policy responses to the current and future waves of the pandemic. The Modi government’s handling of the COVID-19 crisis began with its Early Inaction in January 2020 (detailed in Chapter-2). The government ignored early warnings from experts and political leaders from the Opposition. It failed to learn from the lessons and response models of other countries which had been hit by the pandemic. It did not scale up nationwide the lessons from Kerala’s experience in successfully suppressing a virus outbreak (the Nipah virus).
