RAJYA SABHA ______SYNOPSIS of DEBATE ______(Proceedings Other Than Questions and Answers) ______Thursday, February 11, 2021 / Magha 22, 1942 (Saka) ______ RAJYA SABHA _______ SYNOPSIS OF DEBATE _______ (Proceedings other than Questions and Answers) _______ Thursday, February 11, 2021 / Magha 22, 1942 (Saka) _______ MATTERS RAISED WITH THE PERMISSION OF THE CHAIR 1. Need for Use of Hindi and Other Languages in Supreme Court and High Courts SHRI HARNATH SINGH YADAV: Even after 74 years of independence we have not been able to provide justice to the people of this country in their own language. 98 per cent population of the country communicates in Hindi and other regional languages. So the need of the hour is to adopt people's language in delivering justice so that they may understand the arguments of the advocates as well as the verdicts given by the courts. This will also enhance transparency in the justice delivery system. I, therefore, urge to make a law for the conduct of the proceedings of the Supreme Court in Hindi and the conduct of proceedings in High Courts in regional languages. (Several hon’ble Members associated.) ___________________________________________________ This Synopsis is not an authoritative record of the proceedings of the Rajya Sabha. 186 2. Need for Introduction of New Railway Line in Santir Bazar and Sonaichhari Belonia Subdivisions in Tripura SHRIMATI JHARNA DAS BAIDYA: I would like to bring to your kind attention a very urgent demand of the two localities of South Tripura district. It is for introduction of new train services in Santir bazar Subdivision and Sonaichhari of Belonia Subdivision. People living there cannot avail the rail services as the railway stations from their locality are travel about eight to nine kilometres to reach the railway station on either side. It would be very helpful if a halting station is operationalised at Sonaichhari. Government are requested to pay attention towards the same. (Dr. Sasmit Patra associated.) 3. Problems being faced by Daily Commuters in Delhi/NCR SHRI NARAIN DASS GUPTA: I want to draw the attention of the government to the problems being faced by daily commuters in Delhi and NCR. The restrictions that had been put in place due to corona pandemic, are now being lifted gradually as the situation is becoming normal. Metro rail has started its operations, but only one gate is open for entering or exiting from the metro station while there are gates for all directions at metro stations. This is causing long queues in the morning and evening, especially at Central Secretariat and Patel Chowk Metro stations as this area also has certain restrictions due to construction of New Parliament Building. By dint of the efforts of our Chief Minister, Shri Arvind Kejriwal no cases of corona are now being reported these days. I, therefore, request to pay heed to this problem. Similarly, the government should also take steps to address the problems regarding local trains. (Dr. Amar Patnaik, Dr. Sasmit Patra and Dr. Fauzia Khan associated.) 187 4. Need to Extend Benefits under Special Category to Saharia Tribals Living in Sagar and Bhopal Divisions in Madhya Pradesh SHRI DIGVIJAYA SINGH: Specific schemes are formulated for the scheduled tribes, especially extremely backward special tribes. Saharia caste has been included in Madhya Pradesh under extremely backward special tribe. But they are able to get this benefit only in Chambal and Gwalior divisions while this tribe lives in Sagar and Bhopal divisions and in the entire Bundelkhand. Therefore, I request the hon'ble Minister to take suitable steps so that the Saharia caste may get the same benefit in Sagar and Bhopal divisions as they get in Chambal and Gwalior divisions. (Shri Rajeev Satav, Shri Rajmani Patel and Dr. Sasmit Patra associated.) THE MINISTER OF SOCIAL JUSTICE AND EMPOWERMENT (SHRI THAAWAR CHAND GEHLOT): We have not yet received any proposal from the state government in this regard. In such a situation, how would we consider it? 5. Unfair Fixed Charges on Account of Renewable Energy Purchase Obligation (RPO) DR. AMAR PATNAIK: I want to draw your attention to the issue of unfair fixed charges on account of Renewable Energy Purchase Obligations which have been recently fixed by the Government of India. As we know, all the States do not have the same potential for generating all kinds of renewable energy. Some States have higher potential for solar, some have high wind intensity and some have high hydro potential but the recent circular, which has been issued, fixes and mandates that all of them would be put together under an RPO trajectory and applied to all the States. It is highly unfair. I would request the government to reconsider this and allow the States to determine their own kind of renewable energy source that they want to exploit and contribute to the national grid. (Several hon’ble Members associated.) 188 6. Ex-Gratia Commission to War Widows in Armed Forces LT. GEN. (DR.) D.P. VATS (RETD.): India leads in terms of brave women. But unfortunately, many of these brave women who are war widows, are not recruited even after getting through the gruelling tests conducted by the Services Selection Board while several posts of officers are lying vacant in army. I request the government to increase vacancies and make room for these brave women to join the defence service. (Dr. Sasmit Patra, Dr. Amar Patnaik, Shri Subhash Chandra Singh, Dr. Fauzia Khan and Shrimati Priyanka Chaturvedi associated.) 7. Need for Autonomous Status to Kannada, Classical Language Institute DR. L. HANUMANTHAIAH: I have been demanding Autonomous Status to Kannada Classical Language which was awarded to it in 2008. But the Government is trying to put this classical language under the Bharatiya Bhasha Vishwavidyalaya (BBV) or the Indian Classical Institute. I request the Government to kindly take a decision at the earliest to give the autonomous status to Kannada Classical Language Institute. (Dr. Sasmit Patra and Dr. Amar Patnaik associated.) 8. Need to Waive NOC for Construction Work in Defence Establishment Area in West hill, Kozhikode SHRI ELAMARAM KAREEM: I wish to raise an issue about thousands of residents staying near the Military Establishments, West Hill Barracks and the Military Ground in West Hill area of Kozhikode, Kerala who are struggling a lot due to the ban on construction or any renovation and repair works imposed by the Military authorities. As per the official circulars of the Ministry of Defence, it is clear that the military authorities of Westhill Barracks does not have any right to restrict the construction works. So, I urge upon the Government to intervene in this issue urgently and instruct the military authorities of this Military Establishment in Kozhikode to 189 step back from preventing the people from construction and imposing NOC for the same. (Dr. Sasmit Patra associated.) 9. Need to Establish National Chilli Research Centre in Guntur District in Andhra Pradesh SHRI G.V.L. NARASIMHA RAO: We accounted for more than 50 per cent of world chilly exports in the last five years. Andhra Pradesh alone accounts for 40 per cent of India's production. I urge upon the Government to set up a National Research Centre in Guntur District of Andhra Pradesh, which is the centre of chilly cultivation in this country. This will not only help in development of new varieties but also in extension of knowledge about post-harvest technologies. (Dr. Sasmit Patra associated.) 10. Need to Fill Vacant Posts of the Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities and the Chairman of the National Trust and Rehabilitation Commission SHRI RAJEEV SATAV: We passed "Rights of Persons with Disabilities Bill, 2016" but it cannot be fully implemented as long as the full-time Chief Commissioner is not appointed for the same. Secondly, the post of Chairman of National Trust and Rehabilitation Commission is also lying vacant . I request the government to fill up these vacancies without further delay. (Several hon’ble Members associated.) 11. Need for Inclusion of "Gondi"Language in Eighth Schedule SHRIMATI SAMPATIYA UIKEY: Gondi is a language of the scheduled tribes. It's a very old language. With the passage of time, this language has also incorporated elements from Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Sanskrit, Kannada, Marathi, Odia, Hindi and several other languages. This language is being spoken by lakhs of people in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattishgarh, Maharashtra, Odisha, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. But this primitive and ancient language can become extinct since it's not used for official purpose. 190 Therefore, I request the government to recognise this unknown language(Aboli). (Shrimati Chhaya Verma, Shrimati Phulo Devi Netam, Shri Rajmani Patel and Dr. Sasmit Patra associated.) 12. Need for Financial Help to People Affected by Disaster in Chamoli, District of Uttarakhand SHRI SANJAY SINGH: First of all, I am Paying tribute to the 34 persons who lost their lives due to the natural calamity in Chamoli, Uttarakhand. As per reports, the jawans of NDRF are trying their best to save the lives of those persons who are stuck in the tunnel. I also request the government to pay attention towards compensation paid to family of the deceased and the injured persons. This amount should be at least 25 lakhs. Government should chalk out a scheme to compensate those who have suffered loss of property in the tragedy. The government should also work out a plan to re- establish the connectivity which has been disrupted in the calamity. (Several hon’ble Members associated.) _______ STATEMENT BY THE MINISTER PRESENT SITUATION IN EASTERN LADAKH THE MINISTER OF DEFENCE (SHRI RAJNATH SINGH): Hon'ble Chairman, the House would recall that I had made a detailed statement on the developments in the India-China border areas in Eastern Ladakh during the last session in September last year. I had highlighted that the Chinese side had since April/May 2020 amassed large number of troops and armaments in the border areas adjacent to Eastern Ladakh.

    MY LADAKH DIARY - 4 Lt Gen SK Singh, PVSM, UYSM, LADAKH- A LAND OF AVSM (Retd) Former Vice Chief of the Army Staff, Army Commander NATIONAL GLORY, South Western Command and VALOUR & PILGRIMAGE Corps Commander, Ladakh. 2 On the pious occasion of 21st Anniversary of Kargil Vijay Diwas on 25- 26 July 2020, let us pay homage to our brave Martyrs who have made supreme sacrifice in defending Ladakh, which has been a scene of all wars India has fought since its independence, namely, Indo-Pak War of 1947-48, Indo-China War of 1962, Indo-Pak Wars of 1965 & 1971, OP MEGHDOOT in Siachen since 1984, Kargil War of 1999, and the recent clashes at Galwan between Indian and Chinese forces on 15 June 2020. In all countries of the world, the old battlefields become the places of pilgrimage, where the people of the nation, especially the young generation 3 are motivated and baptized with the spirit of patriotism. Australia and New Zealand sponsor and encourage all their citizens, especially the young, to visit far off island of Gallipoli in Turkey, where the Australian and New Zealand Corps had fought in the First World War. There is a saying amongst the Australians and New Zealanders about this war, “This is where our nationhood was born”. Ladakh has all the battlefields of post independence era to which the present generation can connect and be proud of. I had enunciated this vision in 2009 while celebrating the 10th Anniversary of Kargil Diwas at Drass, and I am happy to note the development of Kargil into a popular tourist hub.

  • 1.7 Param Vir Chakra : Our Heroes
    1.7 Param Vir Chakra : Our Heroes You may have heard about legendary heroes of the past and their extraordinary acts of bravery. But even today many brave soldiers of our country sacrifice their own lives for our safety. Their brave deeds are honoured by bestowing military decorations on them. Param Vir Chakra is India’s highest military decoration. It is awarded for the most conspicuous bravery or some daring or pre-eminent act of valour or self-sacrifice, in the presence of the enemy, whether on land, at sea or in the air. The Param Vir Chakra is a very rare honour. So far, it has been awarded only 21 times. Fourteen of these awards were given posthumously. The medal itself is very simple in appearance. It is made of bronze, and is fi tted with swivel mounting and has a plain purple ribbon. On the obverse, it has the Indian national emblem at the centre, surrounded by four replicas of ‘Indra’s Vajra’. On the reverse, the words Param Vir Chakra are engraved in Hindi and English, with two lotus flowers in between. The Param Vir Chakra medal was designed by Savitribai Khanolkar. She was a European lady, who married Vikram Khanolkar, an Indian Army Officer. Savitribai loved India and took Indian citizenship. She spoke Marathi, Sanskrit, Hindi fluently and had studied Indian arts and traditions in depth. Indra’s vajra or thunderbolt is supposed to be a matchless weapon. But what makes the weapon invincible is the supreme sacrifice of the sage Dadhichi. According to legend, thousands of years ago, a demon had stolen all the water in the world.

  • The Finance Ministry Has Given Its Approval for the Creation of National Database for Unorganised Sector. It Will Be the First-E
    1.Ministry of Finance approved creation of National Database of Unorganised sector The Finance Ministry has given its approval for the creation of national database for unorganised sector. It will be the first-ever national database for migrant workers. The aim of creating national database is to give a proper platform to migrant labourers. It will also make it easy for the government to implement programmes for the unorganised sector. National Database of Unorganised Workers (NDUW) ● The Ministry of Labour and Employment has said that the National Database of Unorganised Workers will maintain the database of the workers using their 12-digit Aadhaar number. ● The database will enroll all unorganized workers including migrant labourers. ● A database of all the workers will help the government in implementing social security schemes, providing jobs and giving other benefits to the unorganized labourers easily. It can also help in keeping a track of workers’ movement in situations like COVID-19. ● The database will also help the workers to share details about his/her skills and get suitable work. ● The total cost of the project is expected to be approximately Rs 650 crore. ● Workers will be encouraged to enroll on the website for the database and Common Service Centres can be used for this. This step has come after the problems faced by migrant labourers in COVID-19 pandemic. Large numbers of labourers were out of work and did not have proper amenities. Thousands of such labourers even walked on roads to reach their homes. As per an open-source database, more than 900 migrants died during the lockdown due to the hardships they had to face.

  • Disengagement Agreement in Eastern Ladakh
    Disengagement Agreement in Eastern Ladakh Why in news? Chinese and Indian troops on the southern and northern shores of Pangong Tso began “synchronized and organized disengagement.” What is the significance? The move comes as the first major breakthrough in talks to resolve the nine- month military standoff along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Ladakh. The disengagement began in line with the consensus reached at the 9th round of China-India Corps Commander Level Meeting. The agreement is a promising start towards restoring peace in the border areas. What is the new disengagement plan in eastern Ladakh? Troops from both sides have started disengaging from the Pangong Tso area in eastern Ladakh. As of now, the disengagement process seems restricted to the north and south banks of Pangong Tso. The process has started with the pulling back of certain columns of tanks from the south bank region by both sides. At the moment, there is no pullback of troops from the friction points and the heights they are positioned on. That will happen in a phased and verified manner. The ground commanders have started meeting, to figure out the nitty-gritty of the process. What does this disengagement process entail? Both sides will remove the forward deployment in a phased, coordinated and verified manner. China will pull its troops on the north bank towards the east of Finger 8. Similarly, India will also position its forces at its permanent base at the Dhan Singh Thapa post near Finger 3. Similar action will be taken by both the parties in the south bank area as well.
