Earth climate underwent changes many times with events ranging from ice ages to long periods of warmth. Climate change can result from natural process and recently human activities are the main causes of the climate change. Natural factors like change in sun’s intensity, volcanic eruption, or slow changes in eh Earth’s orbit around the sun, natural processes within the climate system, bring the change in climate. But during 20th century human activities are the main causes of the climate change. Activities like Carbon Dioxide emissions through burning fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas and peat), Methane and nitrous oxide emissions from agriculture, emission through land use changes such as deforestation, reforestation, urbanization, desertification etc. The emissions are changing the composition of the earth’s atmosphere are called as the greenhouse gases. For the last 200 years, the burning of fossils fuels such as coal and oil, and deforestation have caused the concentrations of heat trapping greenhouse gases to increase significantly in the atmosphere. Although India has one of the lowest per capita emissions of greenhouse gases, it is the world’s fourth largest emitter of carbon dioxide and its huge population and fast growing economy make it a major player in climate change. Climate change has its impacts on natural systems, human beings and living beings too.

If one reads that news, anyone can deduce that these reports betray what is called as ‘Islamophobia’. Especially after 1993 news connecting terrorism and Bhatkal town is being pub- lished continually in the news media. After 2010 Muslim predominant Azamghad of Uttarpradesh is being termed as ‘Athankghad’. During 2011 Bihar is colossally pub- licized as another Azamghad’ In fact many youths arrested allegedly for terrorism activities belonged to Darbanga, Samastipur and Madhubani of Bihar where Muslim population predominates. It is another issue that there were no charge sheets nor an- ything is proved of those arrested? When it relates to terrorism the media instead of investigating the truth, most of the time publishes stories for mere sensation. There are many other reasons for the publication of false stories in the media. Most of the reporters while reporting stories on terrorism instead of collecting the information from the investigating team or police head rely upon the smatter- ings doled out by hawaldars or constables. Another reason being carried over by the reports in the global media! Bhatkal Town is also a victim of such propaganda. Bhatkal town which remains peaceful otherwise, right from 1993 due to the machinations of the media attained notoriety.

  • Battles for Bangalore: Reterritorialising the City Janaki Nair Centre for the Study of Culture and Society Bangalore, India
    Battles for Bangalore: Reterritorialising the City Janaki Nair Centre for the Study of Culture and Society Bangalore, India A divided city, cleaved by a swathe of parkland and administrative buildings that runs from north west to south east, was united in the single Bangalore City Corporation in 1949.1 No longer did the Bangalore Civil and Military station (referred to as the Cantonment, and the location since 1809 of British troops and their followers), have a separate administration from the old city area. And not just a geographical unity was forged, since the maps of linguistic, cultural and political traditions were redrawn. A previous move to unite the Cantonment, then under the control of the British Resident, with the rest of Princely Mysore was resisted by several cultural and economic groups that had long resided in the Station and enjoyed the perquisites of serving the colonial masters.2 A flurry of petitions protested the proposed "retrocession" of 1935 which would bring the Bangalore Cantonment under the Mysore administration; only the war delayed this move until July 1947.3 By 1949, such petitions were no deterrent to the plans of the new masters. But in the five decades since the formation of the Bangalore corporation, the city's east-west zonation continues to persist, and the uncomfortable question of "independence"4, or at least administrative freedom of the erstwhile cantonment has often been reiterated5. Most frequently, this has been in response to emerging cultural and political movements that seek to reterritorialise the city, refashioning its symbols, monuments or open spaces to evoke other memories, or histories that reflect the triumphs of the nation state, the hopes and aspirations of linguistic nationalisms or of social groups who have long lacked either economic or symbolic capital in the burgeoning city of Bangalore.
