  • Assignment-2
    CS19003 : Programming and Data Structures Laboratory Assignment 2 : Conditional Statements in C Date: 13-April-2021 Problem Statement: It has been almost two weeks since Detective Byomkesh Bakshi and his assistant Ajit were being involved to solve a long-standing murder mystery which was rejuvenated by the pair of murders that happened in the city of joy, Kolkata. There must be some clue hidden within, which are yet to be cracked – may be, the dates of murder can give a definitive clue, who knows! Thinking so, Mr. Bakshi was discussing with Ajit about the characteristic of the dates when these murders happen and the last murder date in particular. However, they found out that, in this eastern part of India, often Bengali calendar is followed (which is a lunar calendar as opposed to the solar Gregorian/English calendar that we universally access) for the dates. In Bengali calendar, the names of the months and the number of days within are different than Gregorian/English calendars, which is shown below: Month No. Month Name Days Month No. Month Name Days Month No. Month Name Days 01 Vaisakha 31 05 Bhadra 31 09 Pausha 30 02 Jyeshtha 31 06 Ashwina 31 10 Magha 30 03 Ashadha 31 07 Kartika 30 11 Phalguna 29 / 30* 04 Shraavana 31 08 Agrahayana 30 12 Chaitra 30 * Phalguna has 30 days, if the corresponding year in which it belongs to is a leap-year; otherwise it has 29 days. Now, Mr. Bakshi asked Ajit to figure out the differences in these two dates of the murder according to the Bangali calendar in various forms.

  • Police Odganisation in India
    POLICE ORGANISATION IN INDIA i Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative The Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) is an independent, non-partisan, international non-governmental organisation, mandated to ensure the practical realisation of human rights in the countries of the Commonwealth. In 1987, several Commonwealth professional associations founded CHRI. They believed that while the Commonwealth provided member countries a shared set of values and legal principles from which to work and provided a forum within which to promote human rights, there was little focus on the issues of human rights within the Commonwealth. CHRI’s objectives are to promote awareness of and adherence to the Commonwealth Harare Principles, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other internationally recognised human rights instruments, as well as domestic instruments supporting human rights in Commonwealth Member States. Through its reports and periodic investigations, CHRI continually draws attention to progress and setbacks to human rights in Commonwealth countries. In advocating for approaches and measures to prevent human rights abuses, CHRI addresses the Commonwealth Secretariat, Member Governments and civil society associations. Through its public education programmes, policy dialogues, comparative research, advocacy and networking, CHRI’s approach throughout is to act as a catalyst around its priority issues. CHRI is based in New Delhi, India, and has offices in London, UK and Accra, Ghana. International Advisory Commission: Yashpal Ghai - Chairperson. Members: Clare Doube, Alison Duxbury, Wajahat Habibullah, Vivek Maru, Edward Mortimer, Sam Okudzeto and Maja Daruwala. Executive Committee (India): Wajahat Habibullah – Chairperson. Members: B. K.

    HINDU ASTRONOMY BY W. BRENNAND, WITH THIRTEEN ILLUSTRATIONS AND NUMEROUS DIAGRAMS. London : Published by Chas. Straker & Sons, Ltd., Bishopsgate Avenue, E.C. 1896. S JUL 3 1 1974 fysm OF Wf B-7M Printed by Chas. Straker & Sons, Ltd., BisiiorsoATE Avenue, London, E.G. PREFACE. It is perhaps expected that some reason should be given for tho publication of this work, though it may appear inadequate. Force of circumstances; rather than deliberate choice on my part, impelled it now that it has been I cannot but feel how ; and, accomplished, imperfect the production is. A lengthened residence in India led me to become interested in the study of the ancient mathematical works of the Hindus. This study was frequently interrupted by official duties, and much information acquired in its course lias been for a time forgotten. Recent circumstances, and chiefly the interest displayed by my former pupils in a paper presented to the Royal Society on the same subject, has induced me to make an effort to regain the lost ground, and to gather together materials for a more extended work. Moreover, a conviction formed many years ago that the Hindus have not received the credit due to their literature and mathematical science from Europeans, and which has been strengthened by a renewal of my study of those materials, has led me also to a desire to put before the public their system of astronomy in as simple a maimer as possible, with the object of enabling those interested in the matter to form their own judgment upon it, and, possibly, to extend further investigations in the subject.
