Jamir Hon’ble Governor of Odisha on the occasion of 67th Independence Day-2013 Dear Sisters and Brothers, On this august occasion of our 67th Independence Day, I extend my warmest greetings to all of you. 2. We celebrate our Independence Day with great joy and fervour every year as it commemorates that day, when after many years of subjugation, our country attained freedom. In the annals of history, 15th of August 1947 will go down as a golden day of an indelible accomplishment achieved with unparalleled fortitude and unique means. Under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, our movement for attaining freedom through Ahimsa and Satyagraha spread across the country, inspiring people in a manner rarely seen ever before. Millions and millions of our men and women, willingly and enthusiastically responded to his call. They united to become an immense force that defeated the mightiest colonial power. Free India, was thus born. 3. On this auspicious occasion, I convey special greetings to the brave personnel of our Armed Forces and the Para military Forces who guard our frontiers and to our Central and State police, as well as our internal security forces. I also compliment everyone whose perseverance, productive prowess and enterprising zeal have put the State in the path of continued progress. I also offer my heartfelt tribute to all those who sacrificed their lives for the cause of our Motherland. 4. Dear Sisters and Brothers, we must not forget the values and principles which were in the minds and hearts of those who fought and sacrificed themselves for our freedom. They drew inspiration from the values nurtured in the country through millennia. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru once described Gandhiji as, “embodying the old spirit of India, who held aloft the torch of freedom”. Gandhiji’s thoughts and his life were truly an expression of the philosophy of our ancient civilization in which peace and harmony, non-violence and truth, human dignity and compassion were given prime prominence. 5. Participation of Odias in the Indian Freedom Struggle is an unforgotten chapter in the history of our country. The fight against Britishers was the altar on which innumerable men and women of Odisha sacrificed themselves paying no heed to their personal front. The echoes of Indian War of Independence heard so much in the remotest corners of the State that the tribes came forward to join the War of Independence and their leadership changed considerably the whole course of the struggle. 6. Odia stalwarts like Jayee Rajguru, Buxi Jagabandhu, Chakra Bisoyi, Veer Surendra Sai, Chakhi Khuntia, Birsa Munda, Laxman Naik, Baji Rout, Raghu-Dibakar, Utkalmani Gopabandhu, Pandit Nilakantha, Pandit Godavarisha Mishra, Acharya Harihar, Gopabandhu Choudhury, Nabakrushna Choudhury, Malati Devi, Rama Devi, Harekrushna Mahtab, Biju Patnaik and many others sacrificed themselves for the cause of the freedom. We offer our heartfelt gratitude to those valiant souls on this auspicious occasion. 7. There are still challenges like social and economic freedom before us. Social cohesion and inclusive growth are indicators of good governance. Successive governments both at Centre and State continue to further the process of development over the years. Many developmental initiatives have been planned and implemented for improving the living condition of the common man in the post independent era in our State. 8. Our society is experiencing rapid change because of our fast economic growth and adoption of technology. Today our people look towards the future with new hope. They have higher aspirations. Our young men and women strive for path-breaking achievements. We should all build an environment in the State in which the energy and enthusiasm of the people are channelised into activities of nation building. Our institutions should encourage constructive utilization of the potential of our people. Our entrepreneurs and businessmen should not feel constrained in their activities. Our industrialists should have the opportunity to set up new industries so that our youth can get additional avenues for productive employment. On this sacred occasion, let us pledge to strive hard to achieve these objectives with renewed vigour and firm commitment. Jai Hind. Message of Shri Naveen Patnaik Hon’ble Chief Minister of Odisha on the occasion of Independence Day-2013 Today is Independence Day. On this sacred occasion, I convey my best wishes and congratulations to the people of Odisha. On this august day, I pay my utmost reverence to the great freedom fighters like Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Utkalamani Pandit Gopabandhu Das, Utkal Gourav Madhusudan Das, Saheed Laxman Naik, Veer Surendra Sai, Dr. Harekrushna Mahtab, Rama Devi, Malati Devi, Nabakrushna Choudhury, Gopabandhu Choudhury, Biju Patnaik and lakhs of patriots who participated in this struggle. I also offer my tributes to the valiant soldiers who have laid down their lives for the protection of our motherland India. The Freedom Struggle of India has always inspired the whole world. It has also paved new way for peace and harmony across the globe. In the world history, there is no parallel to the struggle waged by the Indians against the British Government under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi basing on Truth and Non-violence. Odisha played a significant role in the struggle against the mighty British Government. Odisha remained unconquered by the British Government till 1803. The voice against the Britishers was first raised in Odisha. The Paik Mutiny of 1817 led by Buxi Jagabandhu was a glorious chapter in the Odishan history. The gallantry and courage exhibited by Veer Surendra Sai and Chakhi Khuntia in the First War of Independence of 1857 is incomparable. The freedom fighters of Odisha strengthened this movement by joining the Freedom Struggle in different phases from 1857 to 1947. This race will never forget the sacrifice, courage and patriotism displayed by our freedom fighters to free India from the foreign yoke. Their invaluable contributions towards Independence will continue to inspire all

  • The Effectiveness of Jobs Reservation: Caste, Religion and Economic Status in India
    The Effectiveness of Jobs Reservation: Caste, Religion and Economic Status in India Vani K. Borooah, Amaresh Dubey and Sriya Iyer ABSTRACT This article investigates the effect of jobs reservation on improving the eco- nomic opportunities of persons belonging to India’s Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST). Using employment data from the 55th NSS round, the authors estimate the probabilities of different social groups in India being in one of three categories of economic status: own account workers; regu- lar salaried or wage workers; casual wage labourers. These probabilities are then used to decompose the difference between a group X and forward caste Hindus in the proportions of their members in regular salaried or wage em- ployment. This decomposition allows us to distinguish between two forms of difference between group X and forward caste Hindus: ‘attribute’ differences and ‘coefficient’ differences. The authors measure the effects of positive dis- crimination in raising the proportions of ST/SC persons in regular salaried employment, and the discriminatory bias against Muslims who do not benefit from such policies. They conclude that the boost provided by jobs reservation policies was around 5 percentage points. They also conclude that an alterna- tive and more effective way of raising the proportion of men from the SC/ST groups in regular salaried or wage employment would be to improve their employment-related attributes. INTRODUCTION In response to the burden of social stigma and economic backwardness borne by persons belonging to some of India’s castes, the Constitution of India allows for special provisions for members of these castes.

National Rural Health Mission aims at strengthening the rural health infrastructures and to improve the delivery of health services.

The DHAP has been prepared keeping in mind the resources available in the district and challenges faced at the grass root level. The plan strives to bring about a synergy among the various components of the rural health sector. In the process the missing links in this comprehensive chain have been identified and the Plan will aid in addressing these concerns.
