Rio Olympics : Hats off to the women power of India PV Sindhu Sakshi Malik Dipa Karmakar Lalita Babar Aditi Ashok The 16-day spectacle, the games of the 31st Olympiad, has concluded. India is back home with two medals. What our nation has contributed to the puissant jamboree held last month in Rio, Brazil, although has invited much criticism in terms of the performances of our participants; however, the Olympics May this country certainly has a lot more worth knowing other than the medals we got. Dipa Karmakar is one of the only five women in the world who have been able to successfully encourage the sports complete the Produnova vault. The Produnova vault requires a gymnast to run up to the vault (the culture and bring in gymnastics apparatus) and first do a handspring--that is literally toss himself/herself into the air using more and more the vault as some sort of a jumping board. Then, they are required to do two neat somersaults mid-air, success stories following which they have to land on their feet. It's easy to see why the Produnova vault is considered in 2020 Tokyo one of the world's most difficult and dangerous athletics feat. The chances of someone landing on her head or neck are high. It exposes the athletes to life-threatening injuries. The vault is extremely difficult, Olympics. although completing it successfully means very high scores. Then came female wrestler Sakshi Malik. She ended India's medal drought at Rio. She picked up the bronze in the 58kg women's wrestling category, becoming the first Indian female wrestler and the fourth Indian woman to win an Olympic medal. Shuttler PV Sindhu, lithe and lethal on court, also became the youngest Indian ever to win an Olympic medal. In a riveting 84-minute game, she fought like a tigress before going down to the world champion Spaniard Carolina Marin in the women's badminton final. In other, more modest achievements, long-distance runner Lalita Babar became the second Indian woman to qualify for the final of track and field event at Olympics, finishing 10th in the 3,000m steeplechase final on Monday; and teenage golfer Aditi Ashok qualified for the final. The World-class performances by India's female athletes have created a new generation of national icons. Their successes have won them the adulation of millions and turned a spotlight on the high barriers, both social and institutional, they had to overcome to even make it to Rio in the first place. Sadly, when these women were fighting for medals, a few of us were busy google about their castes. Let's salute these new generation icons and leave aside which caste they belong to. Ultimately, we all are Indians and let's celebrate their success in the national spirit. This month, we will be celebrating Gauri Ganapati Festival. Lord Ganesha is considered as the God of arts and sports and Goddesses Gauri represent 'Nari Shakti'. Let's pray to Lord Ganesha and Let's salute these Goddesses Gauri, may this country imbibe the sports culture across the length and breadth of India so that we can be proud of more and more success stories in 2020 Tokyo Olympics. new generation icons Sharvari A. Joshi and leave aside which Chief Editor caste they belong to. Letter to the Editor Dear Sharvari, Ultimately, we all are Indians POWWOW has certainly attracted the attention it deserves from the residents of Hiranandani Estate.

  • New Trends in Bagh Prints:A Prospective Study
    P: ISSN No. 0976-8602 RNI No.UPENG/2012/426228 VOL.-IV, ISSUE-I, January-2015 E: ISSN No. 2349-9443 Asian Resonance New Trends in Bagh Prints:A Prospective Study Abstract Block printing is an ancient art that has been practiced in India for thousands of years. The earliest documented evidence of this craft is from the times of Alexander the Great in 327 B.C, when he mentions ‗beautiful printed cottons‘ in India. Bagh printing in its current form started in 1962 when a group of Muslim Khatri weavers migrated from the near by Manavar to Bagh. They were originally from Sindh, and had since migrated to Marwad in Rajasthan and then to Manavar, with them they brought the block printing technique, which is now the unique Bagh printing style. In Bagh printing, only vegetable dyes are used, the main colours being black and red. For black colour, a mixture of harada and iron ore is used. For red, a mixture of alum and dhavada flower is used. These dyes are extracted and prepared locally. Wooden blocks are used for making block prints. For raw material cotton, silk and combination clothes are used, due to good absorption power. The whole method goes through a long process of dyeing and printing by different traditional designs. Once the printing is finished the cloth is left to dry in sun. To cover the whole process, survey and interview methods are used, by these methods data‘s are collected randomly. For results, Chi square test is applied and the significant level is checked.

  • Bagh Print: How Khatris Are Keeping the 500- Year Craft Alive Along with MP’S Tribals ANTHROPOLOGY SNIPPET-149
    VISHNUIAS.COM Bagh Print: How Khatris are keeping the 500- year craft alive along with MP’s tribals ANTHROPOLOGY SNIPPET-149 (Welcome To Vishnu IAS online ) (Research and Training Institute for the best civil services preparation in India) http://vishnuias.com/ 1 Bagh Print: How Khatris are keeping the 500- year craft alive along with MP’s tribals In the 16th century, when the King of Mewar Maharana Pratap held meetings with his officials, thick cotton jajams (sheets) with colourful floral and geometric patterns were spread on mattresses to seat people. Jajams were also used in marriages and social gatherings, spreading their popularity. They were hand printed using wooden blocks and natural colours by a community of Khatri printers. “Training local tribals, my father felt, was the best way to keep our art alive as the number of 2 Khatri families practicing Bagh print is limited to a few. It was also a good way of increasing income of these families which were solely dependent on agriculture until we started working with them in 1995,” says Mohammed Bilal Khatri, who received an excellence award from the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) in 2016 for reviving Bagh prints, which received the Geographical Indication (GI) tag in 2008. “Some of our relatives in Rajasthan are Hindus. Our ancestors migrated from there and settled in Rajasthan and Gujarat. Our hand block printing imbibed local influences in both the states,” 33-year-old Bilal says. His great grandfather moved from Rajasthan to Madhya Pradesh in the 1930s. And his grandfather chose to settle down on the banks of the Bagh river from which the village as well as the block printing technique derive their names.

    ISSN : 2455-9679 [Sunita et al, 5(8), Aug 2020] Impact Factor : 3.340 IJRTSM INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RECENT TECHNOLOGY SCIENCE & MANAGEMENT “SIGNIFICANCE THE STUDY OF BAGH PRINT” Sunita Patil 1, Dr. Sadhana Chouhan 2 1 PHD Scholar 2 HOD (Drawing &Painting) ABSTRACT Bagh printing in its current form started in traditionally and old method when a group of Muslim Khatri weavers migrated from the nearby Manavar to Bagh. They were originally from Sindh [now in Pakistan], and had since migrated to Marwad in Rajasthan and then to Manavar. With them they brought the block printing technique, which is now the unique Bagh printing style Keyword: Bagh print, Natural colour. I. INTRODUCTION Natural dyes are known for their use in colouring of food substrate, leather, wood as well as natural fibers like wool, silk, cotton and flax as major areas of application since ancient times. Natural dyes may have a wide range of shades, and can be obtained from various parts of plants including roots, bark, leaves, flowers, and fruit [1]. Since the advent of widely available and cheaper synthetic dyes in 1856 having moderate to excellent colour fastness properties, the use of natural dyes having poor to moderate wash and light fastness has declined to a great extent. However, recently there has been revival of the growing interest on the application of natural dyes on natural fibers due to worldwide environmental consciousness [2]. Although this ancient art of dyeing with natural dyeing with natural dyes withstood the ravages of time, a rapid decline in natural dyeing continued due to the wide available of synthetic dyes at an economical price.
