Modi @ UN will affect Make In India

                                        Make In India

Make in India is Modi’s new deal for foreign investors—these numbers explain why it was overdue.

India now has a facilitation window of sorts for investors who want to do business in the country, ushering in a new paradigm that is meant to make India’s notorious labyrinth of red tape and bureaucratic hurdles an unhappy memory from the past.The initiative got a high-profile launch in New Delhi today, with India’s top industrialists, including Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani and Wipro chairman Azim Premji, speaking about the new deal for foreign investors, alongside Modi.

Answers in 72 hours

He face of the initiative is a slickly designed website—makeinindia.gov.in. 

Designed by creative agency Wieden and Kennedy (W+K), it’s possibly the snazziest web portal of any government program in India, and offers information about various sectors.

prospective investors can post questions on the Make In India portal and they will be answered by a panel of experts within 72 hours. Twenty five sectors have been identified as priority areas and the portal offers a wealth of information about them.

15% : That is the current share of manufacturing sector in Indian’s GDP. It compares poorly to other Asian countries. The sector is 34% of China’s GDP and 31% of South Korea’s. In the next decade, India expects to ramp up manufacturing to 25% of the GDP.

100 million jobs:  The number of manufacturing jobs the Indian government aims to create by 2022. According to Justin Lin, a former chief economist at the World bank, China will shed 85 million manufacturing jobs in the next few years because of fast rising wages. India can attract some of these jobs—and it desperately needs to—if it can cut bureaucratic hurdles that scare away new businesses.

“Global companies want to come to Asia but they don’t know where to look in Asia,” Modi said today. “Democracy, the demographic dividend and strong demand are important factors, and India has all three.”

65% of India’s 1.2 billion population is under the age of 35. The average age of an Indian in 2020 will be 29, compared with 37 in China and the United States. In the next decade, India is expected to have the largest available workforce in the world. But if the country cannot create jobs for its youth, the demographic advantage would be wasted.

“In the last five to six years we have had jobless growth and consumption. That is unsustainable. We have only created 2 million jobs every year. But 12 million youth are coming to the job market every year. Obviously it is a recipe for disaster if we allow it to continue, ” said Y.C. Deveshwar, chairman of ITC, India’s largest cigarette maker, at the event today.

134th: That is where India stands, out of 189 countries, in World Bank’s “Ease of doing Business” Index. In South Asia, only Bhutan (141) and Afghanistan (164) rank lower than India. The World Bank reportnotes that it takes 27 days to start a business in India. In Singapore it takes two and a half days. Registering a business takes less than a day in Singapore.

#ModiAtUN:

Modi give his first speech in USA in Hindi which was an awesome move by him. here are the 10 points which are highlighted from his speech:

• in

Here are 10 highlights from PM Modi's speech:

1. 1. Every nation's world view is shaped by its civilization and philosophical tradition. India's ancient wisdom sees the world as one family- Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.
   (Full text of PM's speech)
2. 2. A nation's destiny is linked to its neighbourhood. That is why my Government has placed the highest priority on advancing friendship and cooperation with her neighbours. (Watch)
3. 3. I am prepared to engage in a serious bilateral dialogue with Pakistan in a peaceful atmosphere, without the shadow of terrorism, to promote our friendship and cooperation. However, Pakistan must also take its responsibility seriously to create an appropriate environment. Raising issues in this forum is not the way to make progress towards resolving 
                issues between our two countries.
                   
Terrorism is taking new                       4. shape and new name. No country, big or small, in the north                     or the south, east or west, is free from its threat. Are we                           really making concerted international efforts to fight these                       forces, or are we still hobbled by our politics, our                                    divisions?...

.                  We should put aside our differences and mount a concerted                    international effort to combat terrorism and extremism. As a                    symbol of this effort, I urge you to adopt the Comprehensive                    Convention on International terrorism.

                  5. Today, we still operate in various Gs with different                                  numbers. India, too, is involved in several. But, how much                      are we able to work together as G1 or G-All.

                      

                  6. No one country or group of countries can determine the                       course of this world. There has to be a genuine                                       international partnership. This is not just a moral position,                       but a practical reality.

                  7. We must reform the United Nations, including the                                 Security Council, and make it more democratic and                                 participative. Institutions that reflect the imperatives of 20th                     century won't be effective in the 21st.

                  8. When we craft agreements on international trade, we  n                       accommodate each other's concerns and interests.

                  9. When we think of the scale of want in the world - 2.5                           billion people without access to basic sanitation; 1.3 billion                       people without access to electricity; or 1.1 billion people                           without access to drinking water, we need a more                                   comprehensive and concerted direct international action.

                     

                  10. Yoga embodies unity of mind and body; thought and                          action; restraint and fulfillment; harmony between man and                      nature; a holistic approach to health and well being. It is                          not about exercise but to discover the sense of oneness                          with yourself, the world and the nature. By changing our                          lifestyle and creating consciousness, it can help us deal                          with climate change. Let us work towards adopting an                              International Yoga Day.

                     or more go to NDTV.

It will be interesting to see the future Consequences  of Modi's USA tour . His convocation with the president will decide the future of both country or may be of the WORLD.

Cheapest mission to mars

Mission Mars

Twinkle, twinkle little stars,
World is envious; we're on Mars! Up above the world so high, We've made it in a single try! #MissionMars

#MissionMars

India's Mars Orbiter, which is poised to slip into orbit around the red planet on Wednesday, is the world's lowest-budget mission to the red planet. With this, the Indian Space and Research Organisation is keeping unusual company with entrepreneurs around the world seeking to make space exploration a more viable proposition.

ISRO has spent Rs 450 crore on this project. An equivalent mission by the US National Aeronautical Space Administration could cost up to ten times as much. For instance, NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution probe, which took off 13 days after India's Mars Orbiter Mission cost approximately Rs 4,166 crore at current exchange rates. Ironically, it was considered to be one of NASA's thriftier missions.


M Annadurai, project director of MOM, attributed this to ISRO’s emphasis on using technologies it had already tested on other projects. “Our mission designed itself,” he said in an earlier interview to Scroll.in. “INSAT had already developed certain technology for Chandrayaan [ISRO’s lunar orbiter, launched in 2008]. Since we were reusing that, we had a low development cost. We also wasted less time testing these components since we already knew what their limitations were.”
                                     
The MOM, launched from Sriharikota on November 5,  hurtleed towards its destination at 32 kilometres per second. At that speed, it could travel from Kanyakumari to Kashmir in 100 seconds.

Its goal is to gather photographic and atmospheric data from around the planet and transmit this back to Earth.

“How to do more with less is an art form Indians specialise in," Mohanty said. "Other than frugal engineering, reasons for the low price tag are: (1) Two thirds of the parts for both the probe and the rocket were made indigenously, and (2) ISRO engineers and scientists’ salaries are nowhere close to what their international counterparts get paid at, say, NASA or ESA [European Space Agency]."


Annadurai freely admitted to both suggestions. “Our people thought of this as a matter of national pride,” he said. “Where normally people work for eight hours in a day, the MOM team voluntarily put in 16-18 hours daily, for no extra pay. At one point, they even stayed here 24/7.”

Record time

That, he said, is how they managed to complete the mission in record time. While the prime minister sanctioned the project only in August 2012, ISRO’s team began working on it two months earlier. They took care only to work on generic parts that could be reused in other projects if MOM was not approved.

There are three critical stages for any mission to reach a deep space object. The first, and often most difficult, is to launch the rocket. Once that has been accomplished, the rocket needs to achieve enough momentum to escape Earth’s orbit at exactly the right moment, or it will join other space debris trapped in circling the planet. Finally, once the vehicle is in space, it has to reach its target at the correct velocity to be able to drop into orbit around it.

There is a narrow period once every 26 months when it is possible to launch a rocket to Mars. Prior calculations showed that this would be in November 2013. The team had to begin working early if they were to meet the deadline. Their first test launch took place in September 2012.

“While we can conduct all manner of tests here, we cannot predict how our probes will react in deep space conditions,” said Annadurai. “But we learnt from our experience with Chandrayaan, so we can say we are as prepared as we can be with the MOM.”

NASA's MAVEN has already overtaken MOM despite having taken off later. This is because it used a more powerful rocket to catapult it beyond Earth’s orbit. ISRO is following an older and better-tested method called the Hohmann transfer orbit. This calculates the precise elliptical route a spaceship must follow if it is to travel from one orbiting body to another, as pictured below.


(For an interactive visualisation of MOM and MAVEN’s trajectories, click here.)

In simple terms, all ISRO did was to whirl the Mars Orbiter around Earth six times before flinging it into space towards its destination. Anybody who has ever failed to use a slingshot can imagine the number of ways this could go wrong.

Earth and Mars orbit the sun in the same direction but at different speeds. They come close enough to each other for a launch to be feasible only once every 26 months. If a mission does not launch within this period, the team would have to wait over two years to try again. If anything, down to the angle and velocity of the launch, is miscalculated, the aspiring orbiter might miss its target altogether and be consigned to orbiting the sun instead.

This is apart from everything that could go wrong with any probe exposed to the extreme temperatures and solar radiation of deep space.

“Though other people are launching their probes in a different way, their success rate is much less,” Annadurai noted. “We feel predominantly that the chance of miscalculating is higher for them.”

Only 16 of 41 missions to Mars have succeeded – a little over a third. The now-defunct USSR first attempted to reach Mars in 1960 with two probes, Korabi 4 and 5. Neither of them managed to reach Earth’s orbit. The USSR was, however, the first country to place a lander on Mars in 1971.

Seven of eight missions launched since 2001 have successfully reached Mars. The one failure was a joint venture between Russia and China in 2011 that was unable to escape Earth’s gravity.

Breaking records

MOM has been breaking all ISRO records since December 2, when it crossed the orbit of the moon. If the MOM is successful in locking into orbit around Mars today, it will join four other such probes docked on or around the planet.

ISRO has calculated that once Mars Orbiter reaches Mars, it will be able to conduct its observations for around six months before it runs out of power. The orbiter is carrying a camera and atmospheric sensors. The Chandrayaan, which has similar equipment, was able to confirm last year that there were signs of water on the moon.

Unlike private entrepreneurs, the space organisation has no plans as yet to monetise its potential deep space capacity for independent scientists and observers.

But just reaching Mars "will be a huge achievement for any space programme”, said Annadurai.

Co-education

                                     Co-education

For years, a question many educators, parents, and researchers have been asking is whether or not it is academically beneficial to teach to boys and girls together or separately at school. Some argue that coeducation allows males and females of all ages to become more prepared for real-world situations, whereas a student that is only familiar with a single-sex setting could be less prepared, nervous, or uneasy. However, at certain ages, students may be more distracted by the opposite sex in a coeducational setting. This distraction may affect how often a student is willing to raise his or her hand in class and urge students to be less focused on the lesson.

 According to advocates of coeducation, girls without boy classmates have social issues that may impact adolescent development. Girls may have lower, more traditional aspirations and may choose occupations that tend to be more traditional in nature as opposed to science-related occupations. They argue that the absence of the opposite sex creates an unrealistic environment not duplicated in the real world. In classes that are separated by gender, male and female students work and learn on the same level as their peers, the stereotypical mentality of the teacher is removed, and girls are likely to have more confidence in the classroom than they would in a coeducational class.

Co-education is necessary today. The reasons are many. Boys and girls think differently. Most boys think logically and very often girls are emotional by nature. With regular interaction between boys and girls, a better understanding is created. Co-education also generates healthy competition between them and there will always be better appreciation of each others' perspectives, strength and weaknesses. Co-education also helps create mutual respect and encourages diversity in thought.I would also like to make it a point that co-education system helps the students, especially girls to compete in the field of SPORTS. It would also help them to break their mental barriers and compete in a competitive world of "SPORTS"!
I too feel that co-education system plays an important role in the development of a country. As many people said, this system greatly enhances the student's confidence levels, maturity etc.

On the other hand, when you send your child to a co-educational school, your child will have exposure to the opposite sex from the outset. As a result, your child will not only feel more comfortable in the company of the opposite sex, but will also be able to handle advances better. 

A girl studying in a co-educational school may have ten boys in her class that are interested in going out with her, and may ignore them all, preferring to just hang out with friends. On the other hand, a girl in an all-girl's school will meet fewer boys, and fewer still will show an interest in her. Such interest, since it isn't something run-of-the-mill for her, may cause her to get carried away. However, she may still have a lot of exposure to the other sex, thanks to siblings. In this case, she may be more balanced.

India is a developing country it cannot afford to keep separate schools for boys and girls. In one way co-education increases the level of maturity in the students. And even its helps to know the students how to interact with the others. It even reduces the levels of shyness and their hesitation. In today's competitive world girls and boys need to work together, so it helps a lot. It even stops the discrimination acts among girls. It increases a student's level of thinking. Through the co-education students can develop communication skills, confidence levels, thinking capability, mutual understanding etc. Most importantly, co-education gives confidence to girls as they are treated as 'equals'.

Now a days co-education is considered important because it:

1)Helps in better understanding of the two different genders,
2)Reduce shyness,
3)Helps to be perfect and to have good dressing manners,
4)Helps in the reduction of usage of abusable language,
5)Helps in the maturation of mind.
6)Co-education maintains discipline & sense of etiquette's in the institution.
7)o-education improves communication skill & enlarges the height of thinking.
