INSPIRE Internship Camp Pt. Ravishankar Shukla University, Raipur Sponsored by Department of Science & Technology “Golden Jubilee Year ” INSPIRE Internship Camp Pt. Ravishankar Shukla University, Raipur Sponsored by Department of Science & Technology “Golden Jubilee Year ” INSPIRE (Innovation in Science Pursuit for Inspired Research) is an extremely use ful and unique mi ssion of Department of Science and Technology, New Delhi, Govt of India. The aim of this program is to attract talent to the excitement and study of basic science s at an early stage and to help nation build required critical resource pool for strengthing basic and natural sciences. INSPIRE Scheme has included following three components. (i) Scheme for Early Attraction of Talents for Science (SEATS) (ii) Scholarships for Higher Education (SHE) (iii) Assured Opportunity for Research Careers (AORC) A stri king feature of the programme is that it does not believe in conducting competitive examinations for identification of talent in any level. It believes in and relies on the efficacy of the existing edu cational structure for identification of talent. Pt. Ravishankar Shukla University has been organizing Summer and Winter camps on regular basis for toppers (top 1%) of Chhattisgarh St ate and CBSE from Board examinations in C lass – X. The university had so far organized nine internship camps in which about 1625 school students from all parts of Chhattisgarh participated (Table I) . TABLE - I S.

Winter Camp Dec. 26-30, 2013 220 Prof. Kallol K. Ghosh All the camps were designed in such a way to make the participants feel the joy of studying basic sciences and pave the way for strengthening the resource base of Science and Technology. It included lectures of renowned scientsts, Shanti Sarup Bhatnagar awardees, fellows of National academices (Pl. see the Table II). The scientific success stories , the joys of innovation across all science streams and career opportunities have been covered in these lectures. The scientic shows, visit of different sophisticated laboratories for experimental sessions, visit of regional Science centre and Scientific model competitions ate also part of the programme. (Pl. see the Photographs). The State Council for Education Research and Training (SCERT), District Education Department and Department of School Education, Govt. of Chhattisgarh provided assistance for student selections. All areas of sciences like Physics, Chemistry, Environmental Sciences, Biology, Earth Science and Mathematics have been covered with special emphasis on interdisciplinary aspects. Such an exposure would definitely attract a good number of young budding students to pursue their higher studies and research in different fields of Science. It is a program with long term foresight.

Ltd. Acknowledgement Annual Report of the ‘Satyendra Nath Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences’ is a brief representation of its activities of a financial year. The report reflects research activities, administrative activities, academic progress and achievement of young research scholars, development of infrastructure and facilities, and establishment of network with advanced research groups around the world. It’s seventh time I have been assigned the job of compilation of Annual Report of the Centre. To prepare the Annual Report, all the faculty members and sections of the Centre spent their valuable time to provide respective data. It is a time bound work to be completed within a short span of time. This is the first time the Annual Report is translated and typed in Hindi within the Centre. The Hindi Officer, Sadhana Tiwari has given sincere fatigueless effort to translate the entire Annual Report in Hindi and library staff - Gurudas Ghosh and Ananya Sarkar typed the Annual Report in Hindi within a very limited time period. Words won’t be suffice to describe the painstaking labour of Hindi translation team. I would like to acknowledge the sincere efforts and labour of my Library staff - Gurudas Ghosh, Ananya Sarkar and Amit Roy without whom the work could not be completed within the stipulated time.

Construction Activity 247 1 About The Institute History: The Harish-Chandra Research Institute is one of the premier research in- stitutes in the country. It is an autonomous institution fully funded by the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Government of India. The Institute was founded as the Mehta Research Institute of Mathematics and Mathematical Physics (MRI). On 10th Oct 2000 the Institute was renamed as Harish-Chandra Research Institute (HRI) after the acclaimed mathematician, the late Prof Harish-Chandra. MRI started with the efforts of Dr. B. N. Prasad, a mathematician at the University of Allahabad, with initial support from the B. S. Mehta Trust, Kolkata. Dr. Prasad was succeeded in January 1966 by Dr. S. R. Sinha, also of Allahabad University. He was followed by Prof. P. L. Bhatnagar as the first formal Director. After an interim period, in January 1983 Prof. S. S. Shrikhande joined as the next Director of the Institute. During his tenure the dialogue with the DAE entered into decisive stage and a review committee was constituted by the DAE to examine the Institute’s future.

    Limiting Value of the Kolkata Index for Social Inequality and a Possible Social Constant Asim Ghosh1, ∗ and Bikas K Chakrabarti2, 3, 4, † 1Raghunathpur College, Raghunathpur, Purulia 723133, India. 2Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, Kolkata 700064, India. 3Economic Research Unit, Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata 700108, India. 4S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Kolkata 700106, India Based on some analytic structural properties of the Gini and Kolkata indices for social inequality, as obtained from a generic form of the Lorenz function, we make a conjecture that the limiting (effective saturation) value of the above-mentioned indices is about 0.865. This, together with some more new observations on the citation statistics of individual authors (including Nobel laureates), suggests that about 14% of people or papers or social conflicts tend to earn or attract or cause about 86% of wealth or citations or deaths respectively in very competitive situations in markets, universities or wars. This is a modified form of the (more than a) century old 80 − 20 law of Pareto in economy (not visible today because of various welfare and other strategies) and gives an universal value (0.86) of social (inequality) constant or number. I. INTRODUCTION Unlike the universal constants in physical sciences, like the Gravitational Constant of Newton’s Gravity law, Boltzmann Constant of thermodynamics or Planck’s Constant of Quantum Mechanics, there is no established universal constant yet in social sciences. There have of course been suggestion of several possible candidates. Stanley Milgram’s experiment [1] to determine the social ‘contact-distance’ between any two per- sons of the society, by trying to deliver letters from and to random people through personal chains of friends or acquaintances, suggested ‘Six Degrees of Separation’.
