3HARYANAHuman life is important: MuniKARNAL: Sub-promoter Piyush Muni Ji said that human life is found in the emergence ofeternal virtue with great difficulty after wandering in innumerable yonies and is consideredmore important than the life of hell and gods because in human beings reside the soul. Soultries to destroy birth and death and in the same manner it attains its salvation. Human motioncan also be called the edge of Bhavsagar. On attaining the human form, the soul is as if it is atsuch a place from which it can enter the endless kingdom of liberation even after going a littlefurther. When even a little bit is lost, that edge is left and the creature again tries to get thatquest for eternity. Human birth is very valuable and to waste it inadvertently and carelessly is aterrible mistake. Every man lives, but there are very few people who think seriously about themeaning of life. Human life is very important. Life must be valued, said the Muni.

Haryana Chief Minister, Mr ManoharLal launched the Anti-Bullying Cam-paign of Faridabad Police by unveil-ing Instagram, Facebook and Twitterpage of Faridabad to flag the problemof bullying in home, neighbourhood,schools, colleges and workplace andimplement targeted programs tocounter the menace.

It is the aim of Chief Minister, MrManohar Lal to disrupt anti-socialtransactions that foster violent andpredatory behaviour in society.

Under the campaign, people willbe encouraged to follow Instagram,Facebook and Twitter page with user-name @FBDpolice. It will carry in-teractive posts to make people awareabout the prevalence of bullying. Be-sides, it will also have a platform for

victims of bullying where they can re-port bullies. Police will follow it upwith counselling bullies with the helpof NGOs working with youth-at-risk.Against the violent and incorrigible,police will take legal action under ap-propriate sections of law.

The initiative is a part of the ‘TeenAge Police’ programme of Faridabadpolice. The idea is to eliminate thescope of violence and intimidation atinterpersonal and group relations at anearly stage. The society has juveniledelinquents in substantive numbers.As per a conservative estimate, for

every adult criminal, there are at leasttwo juvenile delinquents who ulti-mately graduate into hardened crimi-nals.

The Anti-Bullying Campaign isfirst in the series that will later coverother issues particularly baneful forteenagers like drugs, gambling and al-cohol addiction, online frauds and hu-man trafficking. Through the initia-tive, teenagers will be encouraged todevelop social skills, empathy and aspirit of voluntary compliance to lawso that they grow into productiveadults.

Dairy complex lacksfacilities: Tarlochan

SHIV KUMAR SHARMAKARNAL, AUG 9

Congress district convenor Tarlochan Singh has said that thegovernment should provide basic amenities in the dairy com-plex before shifting dairies from the city there. He said that thedairy complex still lacks facilities. Hesaid that for the last few days, therehas been a lot of ups and downs re-garding dairy shifting. The Corona pe-riod has neither ended yet, nor has theeconomy of the people improved. Dueto Corona, the poor, labourers, farm-ers, private workers and small tradersare still facing the recession.

In such a situation, the constantpressure that is being made to shift thedairymen on Pingali Road at theshould stop for some time. He said that the Chief Minister nev-er had mercy on the people of Karnal. He said that where (Pin-gali Road) is asking for dairy shift, there is no facility of anykind. Road, sewerage, water and electricity are very importantfor dairy, without these the work of dairy cannot be done. Firstof all, you should provide this basic facilities to the dairymen.Then ask the dairymen to move out of the city.

In such a situation, the question also arises that many of oursisters and mothers who run their household expenses and livewith children on top of dairy and live by selling milk only.

These days, when I have time on my hands, mymind drifts back to old times, and to surprises, ofwhich there are many. Back in the 1970s, my eld-

er brother went off to college, to a hostel and to what Ithought was freedom. Envious, I nagged my parents intoallowing me to go on a longish train ride from our homein Trivandrum to Madras, some twenty hours away bythe metre-gauge line that was, in those days, the sole di-rect rail route between those cities. My parents saw meoff with Rs 50/- for expenses, tickets both ways, in-structions on what not to eat on the train, and written in-structions on how to get to my cousin’s place in BesantNagar from Egmore railway station.Also, for emergency use, I had the phone number of afriend of Dad’s, and one final instruction relayed frommy Madras cousin: Don’t ever take an autorickshaw inmadras because the drivers are all cheats!The train left Trivandrum in the afternoon, and I man-aged to follow Mom’s instructions on food until dinner-time, when I succumbed to temptation and polished offa fragrant but forbidden chicken biryani.The night was pleasant and I slept well enough, eventhough the berth was merely a plank, and the ride wasbumpy as it always was on metre-gauge railway lines.I came awake to sunlight, a queue for the toilets, whichI wanted desperately to use, and the sight of fellow pas-sengers packing their bags, preparing to get off.I asked one of them how long it would take to get toMadras, and he replied, “Less than ten minutes.” Nohope, evidently, of making it to the toilet before that. Iasked him about the buses my cousin had written about,and he replied, “Oh! No problem. There’s one everytwenty minutes. You’ll get to Besant Nagar in an hour.”That roiling stomach made an hour look like an eternity.Dad’s colleague lived in Adyar. “What about Adyar?” Iasked. “Is that closer?”“Yes,” he said. “About half the distance.”By now the train was drawing up at the platform andthere was a surge to the door. Larger passengers loadedwith luggage shoved me out of the way in their rush toget wherever they were going. Perhaps they, too, need-ed a toilet, I thought, and waited for my turn to step offthe coach. Saving half an hour seemed importantenough, I thought, to justify calling Dad’s friend to askif I could go straight to his place. There were coin tele-phones in the concourse of the station. In those days thecoin telephone system worked as follows: you got yourcoins ready and dialled the number you wanted to call.

Literature & HealthElectric cookers can be used

to sanitise N95 masksAn add on to its many other

benefits, electric multicook-ers can also be used to sani-

tize N95 respirator masks, accord-ing to a recent study. The Universi-ty of Illinois, Urbana-Champaignstudy found that 50 minutes of dryheat in an electric cooker, such as arice cooker or Instant Pot, decon-taminated N95 respirators insideand out while main-taining their filtrationand fit. This could en-able wearers to safelyreuse limited suppliesof the respirators,originally intended tobe one-time-useitems.

Led by civil andenvironmental engi-neering professorsThanh Helen Nguyen and VishalVerma, the researchers publishedtheir findings in the journal Envi-ronmental Science and TechnologyLetters.

N95 respirator masks are thegold standard of personal protec-tive equipment that protects thewearer against airborne dropletsand particles, such as the coron-avirus that causes COVID-19.

"A cloth mask or surgical maskprotects others from droplets thewearer might expel, but a respiratormask protects the wearer by filter-ing out smaller particles that might

carry the virus," Nguyen said.High demand during the

COVID-19 pandemic has createdsevere shortages for health careproviders and other essential work-ers, prompting a search for creativeapproaches to sanitization. "Thereare many different ways to sterilizesomething, but most of them willdestroy the filtration or the fit of an

N95 respirator,"Verma said."Any sanitationmethod wouldneed to decon-taminate all sur-faces of the res-pirator, butequally impor-tant is maintain-ing the filtrationefficacy and the

fit of the respirator to the face of thewearer. Otherwise, it will not offerthe right protection," the researcheradded.

The researchers hypothesizedthat dry heat might be a method tomeet all three criteria - decontami-nation, filtration, and fit - withoutrequiring special preparation orleaving any chemical residue. Theyalso wanted to find a method thatwould be widely accessible to peo-ple at home.

They decided to test an electriccooker, a type of device many peo-ple have in their pantries.

SUSHIL PANDIT

India is an agricultural nation.Out of the total population ofour country, a large number of

people depend on agriculture.Keeping this system in mind, thereis a continuous effort by the gov-ernment to think and considerevery section related to agricultureand it has also been benefitedthrough the government and relat-ed agencies related to the agricul-tural sector. Just as in the presentscenario, new dimensions are be-ing established due to the revolu-tion in every field due to the effectof modernism, similarly in the agri-culture sector also, along with tra-ditional agriculture, people belong-ing to the peasant class and the in-dustry sector through agroforestry.

Its benefits are being received.In order to give impetus to the con-servation and development offorests, the Central Forestry Coun-cil was established in 1948 imme-diately after the independence ofthe country, under which a positiveeffort was made to bring a new rev-olution in the region by preparing aspecial framework on plantation.Through agricultural forestry, envi-ronmental protection is promotedalong with the increase in agricul-tural resources. Excessive amountsof wood available from agricultur-al forestry is being used in the ply-

wood industry. Forestry grown byfarmers was generally limited topopular, white (Eucalyptus) till justa few years ago, but agriculturewas added from the scientific pointof view.

Thus, in this area also new di-mensions are being established. Atpresent, people associated with theplywood industry say that the de-mand for ply made from melia du-bia wood has also increased in theinternational market and it is eco-nomical for the people related tothe plywood industry. Along withit, quality is also considered. The"Wood Technologists Association"is also playing a positive role withthe aim of creating harmony be-tween the plywood industry andfarmers. The president of the asso-ciation, Subhash Chand Jolly, hasbeen associated with agriculture

and industry and government re-lated departments for many years.We are continuously trying to pro-vide a platform and the effortsmade so far are also successful onthe ground. The Wood Technolo-gists Association is engaged inawakening the field through semi-nars, webinars and other programsaimed at authenticating the impor-tance of a self-reliant India.Through this article, it will also bepractical to highlight the currentconditions of the people belongingto these two areas and to outlinethe problems. If we talk about thepeople directly connected with theplywood industry, then currentlymore than 3500 plywood units areactive in all over India in whichmore than 13 lakh workers areconnected with these industries, onthe basis of data, more than 30thousand crores business is beingdone from the plywood worldevery year.

On the other hand, if there areother aspects ie the contribution ofpeople related to agriculturalforestry. With regard to the assess-ment, the availability of raw mate-rials (timber) to the plywood sec-tor in the country is ensured by 3per cent from the forest depart-ment, 92 per cent wood from thetrees grown by the farmers outsidethe forest area and only 5 per centtimber imports from abroad.

Post the violent June 15Galwan Valley clashes,India has shown the

confidence of standing soloagainst China in any futureborder dispute despite theUnited States' offer of form-ing a Quad alliance againstBeijing.

Since the clashes in East-ern Ladakh, several negotia-tions between India and Chinahave taken place. Thoughthey have yielded some re-sults as troops of both coun-tries started pulling back insome of the disputed sectors,Chinese troops are still pres-ent in the Depsang Plains re-gion, Gogra, and the Fingersregion along the Pangong Tso.

"In the initial phase ofdisengagement at PangongTso, the Chinese moved backfrom Finger 4 to Finger 5, butcontinued with their deploy-ment on the ridge line. India isinsisting that China moveback from Finger 5 to its oldposition on the Finger 8 spur.In the face of repeated de-mands by the Chinese nego-tiators that India move itstroops back from the forwardareas, India has refused toconsider any de-escalationuntil the disengagementprocess through the with-drawal of Chinese intrusionsis complete," the EuropeanFoundation for South AsianStudies (EFSAS) said in itscommentary.

"Just like in Doklam in2017, the firmness and re-solve displayed by the Indianpolitical and military leader-ship in the face of the Chinesetransgressions have surprised

China," the think tank said.Citing a recent report by

the Indian Defence Ministry,EFSAS said, "While engage-ment and dialogue at militaryand diplomatic level are con-tinuing to arrive at a mutuallyacceptable consensus, thepresent standoff is likely to beprolonged."

In other words, bothcountries are prepared to "digin for the winter despite theharsh climatic conditions thatprevail at such high altitudes.India has mounted a massivelogistics and stocking exer-cise similar to what it doesevery year to retain its holdover the even more unwel-coming Siachen glacier".

This preparedness by In-dia shows that it is strongenough to counter any serious

confrontation at the borderdespite China offering a lu-crative offer of focusing onimprovement of the bilateralrelations instead of the borderissue.

"There has been an argu-ment in Indian public opinionon the boundary question,which worries me, suggestingthe Indian government adjustits policy towards China, andchange its stance on issues re-lated to Taiwan, Tibet, HongKong and the South ChinaSea to put pressure on Chi-na...(Both sides need to) cor-rectly analyse and view eachother's strategic intentions andprevent misinterpretation andmiscalculation in a positive,open and inclusive attitude,"Sun Weidong, Chinese Am-bassador to India was quoted

as saying at a webinar on 'In-dia-China Relations: The WayForward' organised on July30.

He further said, "The pur-pose of clarification of Line ofActual Control (LAC) is tomaintain peace and tranquilli-ty. When we look back intohistory, if one side has unilat-erally stated its own percep-tion on the LAC during thenegotiations, then that willlead to disputes. That is whythis process cannot...move on.I think that this is a departurefrom the original purpose.""The important thing is thatwe must follow those agree-ments and continue our dis-cussion and consultationalong the diplomatic channelsand also among corps com-manders, and also find out a

way to de-escalate the situa-tion and restore peace andtranquillity," he added.

According to EFSAS,"China has periodically beenneedling India at the borderand routinely violating agree-ments reached between thetwo sides to maintain peaceand tranquillity there, Indiahas now been bitten enoughtimes to realise the futility,even counter-productivity, ofdealing with the border issuein isolation."

"Despite the temptation totake the easy road proposedby the Chinese, India believesthat it is now resolute andstrong enough to sustain a se-rious confrontation at the bor-der in order to secure the fu-ture from unpredictable andunprovoked acts of aggres-sion by China," the think tankadded. "India realises as wellthe potential serious conse-quences of a Chinese intru-sion that goes out of hand, asthe one on June 15 in Galwanwell-nigh did," the commen-tary stated.

"While India hopes thatthe current standoff will be re-solved through dialogue, ithas also left little doubt aboutits preparedness for conflictescalation in order to safe-guard its territory. It may,therefore, be the optimal op-tion for India and China towork out a mutually accept-able solution that involves aface-saving Chinese exit.Russia, as India's traditionalpartner and China's newfoundally, could potentially play auseful role in hammering thisout," it said.

Meanwhile, several offersof "help" from the US to Indiahave been made since theGalwan clashes.

US Secretary of StateMichael Pompeo was quotedas saying, during a Congres-sional hearing on July 30,"They talk about bringing so-cialism with Chinese charac-teristics to the world. Claimsthat they have now made forreal estate in Bhutan, the in-cursion that took place in In-dia, these are indicative ofChinese intentions, and theyare testing, they are probingthe world to see if we are go-ing to stand up to their threatsand their bullying."

"I am more confident thanI was a year ago that the worldis prepared to do that. There isa lot more work to do and weneed to be serious about it.Our diplomatic efforts areworking and momentum isbuilding to mitigate thethreats that the Chinese Com-munist Party presents," hesaid.

Proposing a new allianceto counter China, Pompeosaid, "Our Quad (Quadrilater-al Security Dialogue) -- theUS, Australia, India, andJapan -- has been reinvigorat-ed. We have worked hard atthis. Our diplomats have donewonderful work. I am veryproud of the progress we aremaking." "The challenge ofChina demands exertion, en-ergy from democracies --those in Europe, those inAfrica, those in South Ameri-ca, and especially those in theIndo-Pacific region," he fur-ther said.

Conjunctivitis, a commonlyspread viral infection of eyesduring rainy season is conta-

gious spread and can travel from oneinfected person to another. Therefore,self isolation to check its spread is alsorecommended to people affected byconjunctivitis. Though, taken as an-other 'annual problem' of eyes, this in-fection is not to simple to be be ig-nored or handled with self medication.

It may sound scary but it is truethat conjunctivitis can also cause per-manent damage to the eyes.

Conjunctivitis or 'red eye syn-drome' is a viral infection that directlyaffects the upper layer of the eyecalled the conjunctiva. Eyes appearred due to this infection. Eye irritationis another symptom and patient findsit difficult to open eyes in bright lightor sunlight. Due to carelessness, thisinfection can damage the cornea of the

eyes, which can also affect eye sight.Dr. Ashok Sharma, the famous corneagraft specialist at Cornea Center inSector 22, Chandigarh, says that likeother common seasonal viral infec-tions conjunctivitis usually also getcured of its own in two weeks time.

Dr Sharma told that for patientswho have contracted conjunctivitis,should necessarily maintain isolationfor two weeks as it may easily spreadfrom one infected person to anotherperson. To prevent it from spreading toother family members, one shouldavoid sharing each other's clothes,towels etc. The patient is also advisedto wear dark glasses during conjunc-tivitis to avoid touching the eyes re-peatedly and to prevent infection fromspreading. Since the virus of Kovid-19penetrates in to the body through themouth, nose and eyes, it is being sug-gested to apply glasses or shield on the

eyes alongwith the mask, added DrSharma He told that conjunctivitisusually affects any of the two eyesbadly. Eye sight can also be affected.It is seen that after affected peoplegenerally restore to self medicationwhich rather giving relief worsen theinfection. Apart from this, it has beenobserved that people keep washing theeyes with water several times a day toget rid of the irritation in the eyeswhich proves to be more harmful. Thiscauses wounds in the cornea and insuch situations, steroid-based eyedrops manifold the infection. Dr. Shar-ma advised that all cases of conjunc-tivitis should be examined by an oph-thalmologist and get proper treatment.Because it has been observed that re-occurrence of conjunctivitis is verycommon and can cause more damageto the eyes in its reoccurred form.

Conjunctivitis patients should also maintain self isolation

Ballad of the Goodly FereHa' we lost the goodliestfere o' allFor the priests and thegallows tree?Aye lover he was of brawnymen,O' ships and the open sea.When they came wi' a hostto take Our ManHis smile was good to see,"First let these go!" quo' our Goodly Fere,"Or I'll see ye damned," says he.Aye he sent us out through the crossed highspearsAnd the scorn of his laugh rang free,"Why took ye not me when I walked aboutAlone in the town?" says he.Oh we drank his "Hale" in the good red wineWhen we last made company,No capon priest was the Goodly FereBut a man o' men was he.I ha' seen him drive a hundred menWi' a bundle o' cords swung free,That they took the high and holy houseFor their pawn and treasury.They'll no' get him a' in a book I thinkThough they write it cunningly;No mouse of the scrolls was the Goodly FereBut aye loved the open sea.If they think they ha' snared our Goodly FereThey are fools to the last degree.

Ridiculing the so-called Del-hi model as nothing morethan a desperate bid by theArvind Kejriwal governmentto divert attention from itsown failures, Punjab Healthand Family Welfare MinisterBalbir Singh Sidhu on Sun-day said the Aam Aadmi Par-ty (AAP) was making alaughing stock of itself withits absurd claims on Covidmanagement in the nationalcapital.

He termed PunjabLeader of Opposition (LoP)Harpal Singh Cheema’sstatement expressing “dissat-isfaction” over the Captaingovernment’s measures totackle the pandemic as "ludi-crous”, and said the AAPMLA was clearly obliviousto the fact that Punjab contin-ues to fare much better thanmany other states in the fightagainst Covid, which in facthad totally exposed the inad-equate Delhi healthcare in-frastructure. Sidhu pointedout that the effectiveness ofPunjab’s battle against Covidwas not on account of anyhelp from the central govern-

ment, unlike Delhi where theCentre had to step in and vir-tually take over the pandem-ic management to pull thecity out of the total and un-precedented mess into whichthe AAP government hadpushed it. The less said aboutthe AAP government’s Covidmanagement in Delhi thebetter, said the Minister,pointing out that even now,the Delhi High Court wascontinuously questioningand, in fact, pulling up theKejriwal government over itspandemic strategy. Just lastweek, the court had termedas "incomprehensible” theresistance shown by Delhigovernment on its monitor-ing the progress made inramping up the testing, he re-called.

It had become impossible forthe patients from far flung ar-eas to go to other districts forthe treatment of their diseasesin the past few months.

But now due to some reliefgiven by the administration,people suffering from seriousdiseases wish to come to Pun-jab. But the biggest problembeing faced by them are the in-ter-state borders of Jammu andKashmir and HimachalPradesh which are attached toPathankot. Expressing his con-cern, Dr. Anil Garg, Spine andNeuro Surgery Specialist, RajHospital Pathankot, said thatpeople suffering from otherdiseases wish to come to Pun-jab for their treatment, but are

unable to do so due to the re-strictions of inter-state trafficimposed by the government.He has appealed to the Centerand the Government of Punjabto provide special relaxation tothe people coming to Punjabfrom Jammu and Kashmir andHimachal Pradesh for the treat-ment of their serious diseases.It is worth mentioning here thatspine surgery is no less than aboon for those who suffer fromspinal cord diseases. Due toimproper postures many spinal

BCCI President Sourav Ganguly has described the suspension of the IPL title sponsorship deal with Chinese mobile phone company Vivo as just a "blip", dismissing talk that it might lead to a "financial crisis".
