Understanding Precarity in the Context of the Political and Criminal Economy in India
Buried in Sand: Understanding Precarity in the Context of the Political and Criminal Economy in India Jordann Hass 6340612 Final Research Paper submitted to Dr. Melissa Marschke Final Version Abstract: As the world population grows and countries become more urbanized, the demand for sand is more prominent than ever. However, this seemingly infinite resource is being exhausted beyond its natural rate of renewal; we are running out of sand. The limited supply of sand has resulted in illicit sand trading globally, spawning gangs and mafias in a lethal black market. Through the nexus of politics, business and crime, India has demonstrated to be the most extreme manifestation of the global sand crisis. This paper will offer insight into the under-researched area of precarity surrounding the sand trade in the context of political criminality in India. By adopting an integrative approach to precarity, the analysis will review the direct and indirect impacts on livelihoods and local communities. The findings highlight how the collusive relations between the sand mafia and state authorities perpetuate a cycle of precarious labour and social-ecological conditions. To conclude, I will explore recommendations on how to address the implications of sand mining as a global community. 1.0 Introduction Sand is a fundamental component in modern society. Minuscule, and in some instances almost invisible, sand is one of the most important solid substances on earth (Beiser, 2018a). Historically, it was used as a form of verbal art that incorporated language, culture and expression through drawings. Eventually, the use of sand evolved into a material that was ‘malleable and durable, strong and fireproof,’ (Mars, 2019). -

Role of Judiciary in Environment Protection
Legal Desire International Journal on Law November 2020 ISSN: 2347-3525 Role of Judiciary in Environment Protection Sristi Raichandani, Swati Anand, SweetySamara, Utkarsh Verma, Sujata Porwal ‘Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth… these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women’s empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all.’ Ban Ki-moon ABSTRACT ‘The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe, the less taste we shall have for destruction.’ Rachel Carson Environmental issues are a matter of major concern as they directly affect the human existence. Role of judiciary in India, in matters relating to environment protection has constantly increased leading to innovations and implementation till a certain level. The activist judiciary has Suo Motu taken up various initiatives to bring significant changes. This report tries to analyze the role of judiciary in environmental issues, the challenges faced by it and suggests ways to overcome the barriers and progress forward to provide for a healthier environment, without disturbing the balance of organs (of government of India) prescribed by the Constitution. INTRODUCTION The Constitution is known as the “basic law of the land” from which all other laws derive their sanctity or validity. Therefore, it must be a living and growing law that is able to cope up with the current situation and developments. The former Prime Minister of India, Mrs. Indira Gandhi, was the first head of state to address the International Conference on Human Environment at Stockholm in 1972.She voiced deep concern about the degradation of the environment and eco-imbalances and also emphasized that pollution, population and poverty are inter-related problems and there must be an integrated approach to deal with them. -

Role of Education in Sustainable Development BLOCK 4 SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: A WAY FORWARD 159 Sustainable Development: A Way Forward 160 Role of Policy Innovations in UNIT 11 ROLE OF POLICY INNOVATIONS IN Sustainable Development SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT* Structure 11.0 Objectives 11.2 Introduction 11.2 Goals of Sustainable Development 11.3 Major Features of Policies for Sustainable Development 11.4 Towards Policy Innovations for Sustainable Development 11.5 Conclusion 11.6 Glossary 11.7 References 11.8 Answers to Check Your Progress Exercises 11.0 OBJECTIVES After reading this Unit, you should be able to: Discuss the basic concept of sustainable development; Examine the goals of sustainable development; and Describe the effectiveness of policies for sustainable development. 11.1 INTRODUCTION By now we are well familiar with the term sustainable development. Just to reiterate what we have stated in our earlier Units, the concept of sustainable development is based on the concept of development (socio-economic development in line with ecological constraints), the concept of needs (redistribution of resources to ensure the quality of life for all) and the concept of future generations (the possibility of long-term usage of resources to ensure the necessary quality of life for future generations). The essence of the concept of sustainable development is based on the balance between three pillars of sustainability – environmental sustainability, focused on maintaining the quality of the environment, which is necessary for conducting the economic activities and quality of life of people, social sustainability which strives to ensure human rights and equality, preservation of cultural identity, respect for cultural diversity, race and religion, and economic sustainability necessary to maintain the natural, social and human capital required for income and living standards. -
MMRC Committed to Follow Additional Measures for Noise Mitigation
Colaba- Bandra-SEEPZ MMRC committed to follow additional measures for noise mitigation Mumbai, 10 May 2018: “MMRC is committed to follow additional noise mitigation measures for reducing the noise generated during Metro construction activities.” said Ms. Ashwini Bhide, MD, MMRC in a meeting held at Mantralaya yesterday that was proposed to discuss noise mitigation measures implemented by Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC). The meeting was conducted with Principal Secretary (Transport & Port), Government of Maharashtra, Shri Manoj Saunik and Founder of Awaaz Foundation, Ms. Sumaira Abdulali. Ms. Ashwini Bhide, MD, MMRC, Mr. SK Gupta, Director (Projects), MMRC and Mr. R. Ramana, Executive Director, MMRC provided details of measures which are already being adopted at various sites to mitigate noise. They also mentioned about difficulties that are being encountered due to congested site conditions. In the meeting, MMRC informed about installation of noise barriers in Cuffe Parade and Vidhan Bhavan stations and the techniques of removing muck with the mechanical device that is specially designed to eliminate impulsive noise created by piling activity. MMRC has also expressed their eagerness to implement feasible noise mitigation measures taking into consideration the site constraints. Ms. Ashwini Bhide, MD, MMRC said, “High noise generating piling activity is temporary and would be completed by December 2018 whereas excavation activities would reach to 10 to 12 m deep by December 2018 thereby significantly reducing noise levels due to metro activities.” She further added, “With completion of decking and piling at most of the sites, we believe the noise level should go down.” She also clarified that the baseline noise levels measured in the year 2016/17 are already above the permissible limits. -
