"मंजिलें कितनी भी ऊंची क्यों न हों लेकिन  रास्ते हमेशा उसके पैरों के नीचे ही होते हैं"

बीजेपी, जिसका पूरा नाम भारतीय जनता पार्टी है, भारत की एक प्रमुख राजनीतिक  दल है इससे न केवल भारत देश के लोग बल्कि विश्व के लोग भी परिचित होंगे। आज हर कही , हर कोई इस पार्टी के बारे में जानता है। वर्तमान में इसकी प्रसिद्धि में कही ज्यादा बढ़ोतरी हुई है इसका मुख्य कारण देश की सत्ता  में होना और कुशल, प्रभावी तथा मुखर नेता का  नेतृत्व है। बीजेपी आज जो इतनी विशाल, प्रभावशाली और फैली हुई नजर आती है उसका शुरू से ही देश में डंका नही था।इसने कई  चुनौतियों व बाधाओं का सामना करते हुए , देश के सबसे पुरानी पार्टी  और अपने मजबूत विपक्षी को हराते हुए आज अपने शीर्ष पर विराजमान है।  इस पार्टी ने भारत की एक दलीय राजनीतिक व्यवस्था को परिवर्तित  करते हुए उसे दो ध्रुवीय बनाकर के  एक नए गठबंधन  युग की शुरुवात की । तमाम उतार  चढ़ाव और मुश्किलों  को पार करते हुए अपना वर्चस्व स्थापित  करने में कामयाब हुई। जो की अन्य  पार्टियों  के लिए प्रेरणा का स्रोत है। आज पार्टी की चमक इतनी तेज है की  जनता की नजर में बाकी पार्टियों के कार्य , उपलब्धियां  धुंधली नजर आती हैं। बीजेपी शुरू से ही राष्ट्र  के प्रति अपने अथाह प्रेम को अभिव्यक्त करते आ रही है, और यह  राष्ट्र के प्रति समर्पण का भाव रखते हुए यह अपने आप को एक राष्ट्रवादी  राजनीतिक पार्टी के रूप में पेश करती है।

एक बार फिर जनसंख्या का जिन्न बोतल से बाहर आ गया | पिछले कुछ वर्षों से मुख्य मुद्दों से भटकाने के लिए बीच-बीच में विवादित मुद्दों को उछाला जाता है ताकि लोग वर्तमान को भूल जाये, मुद्दे ऐसे उठाये जाते है जिनका लेना देना वर्तमान से ना होकर या तो भूतकाल से होता या भविष्य की असुरक्षा से होता | जनसंख्या के संबंध में उठाये गये सवाल कल्पनिक है जिसका आंकड़ों एवं वास्तविकता से कोई लेना देना नहीं हैं|

India has a high rate of unemployment for a number of reasons, one ofwhich is the quality of the educational system. The British colonial power built oureducational system to generate people who follow their orders without questioning them. The British empire influenced how people thought. They did succeed inruling India for 200 years thanks to the education system. Following independence,successive government also opposed people acquiring knowledge and wisdom bynot quashing the British education system completely, and the colonial educationalsystem has persisted to this day.

The type of workforce now needed by business places some impact on theeducational system. The emphasis in industry is now more on skill than degree.Top global companies of the world are eyeing on skilled people rather than degreeholders. Courses are being created to help students improve their skills. Byopening an increasing number of skill development centres across India, the government is advancing its mission for skill development. Skill developmentcourses are being clubed with old conventional degree programmes to enablestudents ready for industry.

Old methods are going to become obsolete as new fields emerge. Newprospects are made possible by the development of computer technology and itsdynamism. People using technology to their advantage and people with traditionalways of thinking getting lost. ICT, or information and communication technology,has now impacted every aspect of life, making things simpler and easier. In thenot-too-distant future, computer chips will be implanted into the brain and tinyrobots will enter the body to mend bodily harm.

Young people who are on the verge of making a career decision musttherefore experience the changes and development taking place in the globe.Regardless of the field one selects, ICT expertise is a necessity. Skill now speaks,not degree. Regardless of educational background, large firms are looking for talented people.

Some new fields that are developing quickly include data sciences, dataanalytics, block chain, cloud computing, social media content creation, socialmedia marketing, etc. All of these fields have a large work force demand and cansignificantly reduce unemployment. One can acquire these skills sitting in hisroom with having a computer and internet connection and earn as well sitting in hisroom working as freelancer.

Platforms like Coursera, Upgrad, Udemy, NPTEL, and others that providecourses from Indian and international institutions are at the fingertips of a youngman who wants to learn knowledge and skills. Regardless of their location, skilledpeople can register on websites like Fiver, Freelancer, Upwork, etc. to find asuitable freelancing job. Many organisations now prefer remote employees particularly those in the information and software industries, which provideworkers the freedom to carry out their tasks whichever way they want.

Now, students and their parents must comprehend that the period ofgovernment employment is coming to an end and that the traditional method ofeducation is time-consuming and ineffective. In the private sector, there arecountless chances, but all they require is a trained staff with dynamism since in thisrapidly changing world, employees must stay up to date or risk becoming obsoleteand left behind.

SC recognises marital rape, unmarried women’s rights.

The Supreme Court’s landmark ruling that the marital status of a woman cannot be grounds to deprive her of the right to abort an unwanted pregnancy is a significant moment in the quest for personal autonomy and reproductive choices. The apex court’s interpretation of provisions of the Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) Act leaves no room for any distinction between married and unmarried women. The concept is constitutionally unsustainable, the three-judge Bench said, and perpetuates the stereotype that only married women are sexually active. All women, even those who are single, are entitled to a safe and legal abortion till 24 weeks of pregnancy. It’s a welcome judgment.

Abortions have been legal in India since 1971. Strict rules have been put in place, over the years, for who can terminate a pregnancy considering the preference for a male child and abortion of female foetuses. Under the law, abortion is permitted till 20 weeks of pregnancy for all women on the opinion of a registered medical practitioner. Last year’s amended legislation increased the permissible time limit for abortion from 20 weeks to 24 weeks. However, it had limited the procedure to married women, divorcees, widows, minors, disabled and mentally-ill women, those with foetuses that had major abnormalities and survivors of sexual assault or rape. The court order clarifies that unmarried women in consensual relationships, too, are entitled to the same rights of reproductive autonomy.

Marital rape is yet to be criminalised in the country, but an important aspect of the ruling is that the definition of rape must include marital rape under the provisions of the abortion laws. Like rape survivors, the top court emphasised, married women may also form part of a class of survivors of sexual assault, having become pregnant on account of a non-consensual act by the husband. Non-disclosure of the identity of minors under the Act is another directive that is apt.

Rahul Gandhi has accused the National Democratic Alliance government of disempowering adivasis and forested communities by bringing in the new forest conservation rules. The Congress leader, Jairam Ramesh, has also vehemently opposed the new Forest Conservation Rules, 2022, alleging that its guidelines stifle the ease of living of the many in the name of ushering ease of doing business for a chosen few. The Union environment minister, Bhupender Yadav, has said that the new rules do not dilute or infringe upon the provisions of the Forest Rights Act, 2006. Would the new regulations endanger the rights of forest dwellers and tribals?

गाड़ी को चलाने के लिए ईंधन की आवश्यकता होती है, ईंधन स्वयं जल के गाड़ी को ऊर्जा प्रदान करता है। ईंधन स्वयं जल के धुएं में बदल जाता है और गाड़ी को गतिवान बनाता है। यही हाल हमारे देश के लोगों का है जो सदैव राजनीतिक अखाड़े का ईंधन बनते है एवं राजनीतिक दलों और उनकी विचाराधाराओं को गति प्रदाय करते है। ईंधन की भांति लोगों को कुछ नहीं मिलता, उनकी जिन्दगी धुएं की मानिद काली ही रहती है। सारी ऊर्जा राजनीतिक दलों को मिलती है और साल दर साल वे चलायमान होकर जीवन के सारे वैभव प्राप्त करते है।
