JMSD, Oct.-Dec. 2013 / 1 An Analysis of Public Expenditure on Employment Generation and Outcome in India: An Interstate Analysis of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Programme (MGNREGP) ANAND C INDIRA M Abstract : The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) which was later renamed as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) was introduced in 2005. The Act recognizes employment as an entitlement and defines an obligation for the government - the obligation to provide, in each year, 100 days of wage employment at a stipulated minimum wage to all rural households whose members are seeking or willing to do unskilled manual work. National Rural Employment Guarantee Programme was introduced with the twin objectives of generating employment and creating rural infrastructure. An attempt is made in this paper to analyze trends in allocation of funds under this programme and relate the expenditure to the outcomes measured in terms of employment generated across different states since the introduction of this programme. State wise average spending deflated by population shows that North Eastern states are ranked high in average spending. Among the factors which have influenced the employment generation, the average allocations, the percentage of rural population and the literacy level appear to be influencing the outcomes. While the amount of allocations and the percentage of rural population have positive influence, the literacy levels have negative influence.

  • Global Sindhis Interview FINAL 01.Cdr
    Dr. L. H. Hiranandani Jawhrani: Welcome Sir! It is said that previously you were known as Lakhoomal Hiranand Kandhari. How did you switch over from Kandhari to Hiranandani? Dr. L. H.: After the fall of King Dahar, Sindh became part of the Islamic world. Previously, Brahmins were present in great numbers in Sindh and used to dot the landscape. Arabs, being wary of their knowledge and clout, killed all of them and thus literally cleared Sindh of all the Hindus. It is said, that Sindhis then came from outside. We Bhatias, are known to have come from Jaisalmer. Jaisalmer is a barren land and bereft of water. The people living there migrated to areas where they could have access to water and for this simple reason they preferred Sindh and settled near the banks of the river Indus. The people of Jaisalmer were known as Bhati which became Bhatia, once they came to Sindh. Some of them had also gone to Punjab and presently Bhatias live in Sindh as well as Punjab. Bhatias are then divided into various sub castes, such as Assar Pota or Khinara. We belong to the Khinara sub- caste. Sindhis, even in those early days, were quite enterprising, and for business purposes traveled abroad quite often. My great grandfather's several sojourns to Kandhar on regular basis gave our family the name Kandhari . Jawhrani: And so from Bhatia to Kandhari and from Kandhari to Hiranandani, perhaps from your father’s name- ‘Hiranand’. Dr. L. H. : Yes. Jawhrani: Can we have some more details about your family? Dr.

  • Global Sindhis Interview FINAL 01.Cdr
    Murli Chanrai Jawhrani: Chanraiji, we welcome you. You were born in Sindh and bearing in mind your age, you must surely have some cherished memories about our holy motherland Sindh. Can you tell us about your place of birth, family and their business interests? Murli: We lived in Hyderabad (Sindh) and I was born there. It was a big joint family and we all lived together - uncles, aunts, cousins etc. Jawhrani: You must have been 20-25 years, at the time of partition, isn’t it? Murli: You are absolutely right, I was exactly twenty-five years old at the time of partition. Jawhrani: Did your family hail from Hyderabad originally? Murli: Yes, I studied at the Nav Vidyalaya School, Hyderabad. Then, I moved on to Navalrai Hiranand Academy, Hyderabad, for my matriculation. Even in those days our business was spread worldwide and we had offices in Bombay, Madras, Africa, Gibraltor, Canary Islands, West Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Panama and South America. We, however discontinued our South American business due to logistical reasons. Jawhrani: That our traders filled up steamers and set sail worldwide is something legendary. Wasn’t this almost hundred years back? Murli: More than a hundred years. Old letterheads of our company mention ‘Established in 1860’. We still have in our possession correspondence with our offices abroad, dating back to 1893. Jawhrani: Was your family as badly hit as the other Sindhi families by the partition? Murli: As I stated earlier, we had no business interests in Sindh. We had properties - mainly agricultural lands, besides our houses and offices, which we had to forego and were able to get just notional claims as compensation in India.

Joshi, student, Department of PG studies in Journalism, Alva’s College 3Dr Kushal Kumar School of Humanities Lovely Professional University Punjab. Abstract Human rights are moral principles or norms which describe certain standards of human behavior, and are regularly protected as legal rights in municipal and international law. There are many substantive rights of human rights such as right to life, freedom from torture, freedom from slavery, right to a fair trial etc; but unfortunately most of the time people don’t know them. People should be aware of Human rights. Educating society on human rights is an essential task. Media is a field which is doing this job very efficiently since long time. Media is like a mirror. Its main task is to gather the information and reflect it back in proper form. Media are the producers of information for general public. This information includes human rights issues most of the times. Human rights are compass for good journalism. Journalists have a moral obligation to promote human rights all the time and in every story. Media are like watch dogs, who warn the people about threats to their freedom, to their society, to their livelihood and to their culture. The present research paper attempted to observe the coverage of human rights in five major Kannada newspapers of one month and also attempted to find out how people get educated through the news published about Human Rights.
