SC appoints ex judge to monitorstubble burning in Pb, Hry, UP

AGENCYNEW DELHI, OCT 16

The Supreme Court on Friday ap-pointed Justice (retd) Madan BLokur, a former judge of the topcourt, to act as the one-man mon-itoring committee to prevent stub-ble burning in the states of Pun-jab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.

A bench headed by Chief Jus-tice SA Bobde, while hearing aplea highlighting the issue ofstubble burning in Punjab,Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, saidthat the court is only concernedthat the citizens of Delhi-NCR getto breathe clean and fresh air.

The bench said that the newcommittee, which will monitorthe stubble burning and take pre-ventive steps, will get assistancefrom chief secretaries of all states.

"We have been made aware ofsteps by Punjab and Haryana forstopping stubble burning includ-ing the development of an appwhich can help in identificationand notification of a particular

field in which someone has burntstubble... In spite of measures, re-ported an increase in stubbleburning which will pollute the at-mosphere of Delhi-NCR in-evitably. We are not inclined tomake an assessment of whichmeasure has been effective ornot," the bench said.

The bench also asked theheads of National Cadet Corps,National Service Scheme, andBharat Scouts and Guides to putthe young force at Justice Lokur's

disposal to help locate stubbleburning in the three states andbring it to the notice of authoritiesto prevent the same.

"There needs to be somemonitoring of stubble burning be-fore it assumes unhealthy propor-tions. Accordingly, we find thatthe suggestion of a former Judgeof this court is appointed to mon-itor the situation in Punjab,Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh," thebench said. "We accordingly ac-cept the suggestion and appointJustice Madan B Lokur, formerSupreme Court Judge to act as theone-man monitoring Committeeto prevent stubble burning in theState," it added. The bench, in itsorder, said that it considers it ap-propriate for the Chief Secretariesof Punjab, Haryana and UttarPradesh to enable Justice Lokur inorder to devise additional meansand methods for preventing burn-ing or stubble. It further said thatthe states shall provide adequatefacilities to the committee for car-rying out its job including secre-

tarial assistance and transporta-tion if necessary and added thatthe Committee will submit a re-port fortnightly or as and when re-quired.

During the hearing, senior ad-vocate Vikas Singh appearing forthe petitioner, a class 12 studentAditya Dubey, said the prayer inthe plea is that a one-man com-mission of Justice (retd) Madan BLokur can be appointed becausehe has dealt with many environ-mental issues.

The state agencies and Envi-ronment Pollution (Preventionand Control) Authority are notempowered and don't have anyteeth to take action, he said. Singhfurther contended that let a one-man commission of JusticeMadan B Lokur be appointed andlet him formulate teams to tacklethis for continuous monitoringand he can take assistance fromNGOs or NCC for the creation ofmobile teams that can monitorand identify instances of stubbleburning.

KARNAL, OCT 16(AMAR SINGH RANA ): Deputy Commissioner Nishant Kumar Yadav said that Nilokheri mandi should be closed on Sunday and whatever paddy is lying in the mandis should be lifted and the entire mandi should be cleaned so that the upcoming crop is cleared. The Deputy Commissioner asked the farmers not to sell their crops below MSP. The crop of the farmers will be procured according to the moisture fixed at the support price fixed by the government. On Friday, the Deputy Commissioner took stock of the procurement at Nilokheri Grain Market and talked to farmers and jobbers and learned their problems. The jobbers and farmers demanded the crop details portal should be opened for some time, so that the farmer could not get the details of the crop to get a chance to register the crop. The Deputy Commissioner reviewed the robust arrangements made for the procurement work by the Market Committee Department and directed them that there should be no problem of gunny bags etc. in the market. If the farmer brings the crop to the market then his crop should be purchased according to the prescribed norms. Proper arrangements for electricity and water should be made in the market.

District President of Jan-nayak Janata Party, IndrajitSingh Goraya, after reachinggrain market Taraori and In-dri, took cognizance of thedifficulties being faced byfarmers after meeting the of-ficials of the buying agen-cies and the officials of themarket committee.

Talking to reporters, In-derjit Singh Goraya said thatthis time the cultivation ofpaddy is more than last yearand the rate is also gettingright and the crop is beingsold according to the MSPdeclared by the central gov-ernment. Due to the mois-ture, there is a slight cut inrate according to the scaleset by the government, be-cause the labour expenditurewith high moisture increasesand the weight also decreas-es after drying.

Therefore it is natural to

cut a little rate because mostfarmers are happy to get theappropriate price. Purchas-ing process is getting full co-operation of farmers and thepeople who are not gettingpayments on time shouldcome forward and informthe government.

Everyone is happy withthe quality of the food beingserved in the canteen by themarket committee and provi-sion for night food is also inprocess.. On this occasion,Janmayak Janata Party's sen-

Cabinet gives nod to new draftfor water conservation

BUREAU CHANDIGARH OCTOBER 16:

The Haryana Cabinet which met underthe chairmanship of the Chief Minister,Mr. Manohar Lal here today accordedapproval for draft of Haryana WaterResources Conservation, Managementand Regulation) Authority Bill, 2020for Conservation, management andregulation of water resources inHaryana until now, the ground waterwas being regulated under the guide-lines issued by the Central Ground Wa-ter Authority, however entry 17 in thelist II of Schedule VII of the Constitu-tion of India inter alia provides that wa-ter supplies, irrigation and canals,drainage and embankments, water stor-age and water power are the state sub-jects, hence this Bill has been intro-duced.

The Bill has been prepared withthe aim to establish an Authority forconservation, management and regu-lation of the water resources in theState including surface water, groundwater and treated waste water ofHaryana which shall exercise its juris-diction over the entire State.

The uncontrolled and rapid usageof water, in absence of any effectivelaw in the State has resulted in alarm-ing situation of declining ground waterlevels along with depletion of surfacewater in several areas. In order to dealwith the situation of serious water cri-sis and over exploitation of water in theoffing, it is an impending necessity toenact an appropriate law to provide forprotecting, conserving, controlling andregularizing the usage of water in theState so that the water regimen be-

comes sustainable both quantitativelyand qualitatively, especially in stressedareas. The Authority will be constitut-ed and would consist of five memberincluding Chairman to be appointed bythe Selection Committee constitutedunder Section 5 of the draft Bill.

The overnight heavy rains that pounded Telangana,Andhra Pradesh and parts of Karnataka and Ma-harashtra have claimed scores of lives and caused

destruction of property worth crores of rupees onWednesday and if the weatherman gets it right, the re-gion will continue to face the threat in the coming days,too. Apart from the loss of lives, the rains left severalbusy residential areas and commercial streets in Hyder-abad flooded and houses and shops inundated. Powersupply was disrupted for hours together. Even the roadto the airport was washed away in the rains, marooningthe city for all practical purposes.The way the rain fury threw life out of gear in the Telan-gana capital leaves some disquieting questions about oururban planning. It is unacceptable that one night’s raincan bring the civic life of a growing city to halt. Thethreat is not specific to Hyderabad: Chennai and Mum-bai had similar experiences in the recent past while theothers are waiting for their turn. True, the impact ofglobal warming and sudden changes in the weather pat-terns are tough to handle at the local level but the citi-zen’s and official culpability should not go unnoticed.It’s a shame that the cities which were built with properdrains decades or even centuries ago now drown in floodwaters. Hyderabad had a proper way out for water in theform of River Musi but it has now become a waste dumpand a victim of mindless encroachment despite severalrecovery plans. The smaller ones have been lost forever. It is not that the planners cannot foresee this happeningand ensure that life is not completely disruptedovernight. Adequate warning and advance planning canameliorate the hardship of the people and reduce the lossof property. The disastrous cyclones that regularly visited the east-ern coast, especially Odisha, and claimed thousands oflives no more repeat their dance of death now, thanks tothe improved advance warning systems and an efficientgovernmental machinery that ensures that the cyclonepasses its way as is its wont but no lives are lost. Thiru-vananthapuram, the capital city of Kerala, was savedfrom the devastating floods in 2018 and 2019 after aproject named ‘Operation Anantha’ was implementedwith focus on clearing the drains five years ago. It wasmade possible by the determination of a team of offi-cials, led by the chief secretary, and helped by the strin-gent provisions of the National Disaster ManagementAct, 2005. An action plan on a similar pattern whichuses technology and concepts of advance planning mustbe introduced in our cities to save them from suchcalamities.

Literature & HealthMen, women have

different attitudes towardsCovid-19 pandemic

Scientists have finally cracked whywomen ruled countries are re-sponding more effectively to coro-

navirus pandemic as surveys suggest adifference in attitudes towards theCOVID-19 pandemic in the genderswhich impacts the gender differences inmortality.

Original data from two waves of asurvey conducted in March-April 2020 ineight Organisation for Economic Co-op-eration and Development countries showlarge gender differences in COVID-19-related beliefs and behaviours. Womenare more likely to perceive the pandemicas a very serious health problem and toagree and comply with restraining meas-ures. These differences are only partiallymitigated for individuals cohabiting ordirectly exposed to COVID-19. This be-havioural factor contributes to substantial

gender differences in mortality and isconsistent with women-led countries re-sponding more effectively to the pan-demic. It calls for gender-based publichealth policies and communication. Gen-der differences in attitudes and behaviourare sizable in all countries. They are ac-counted for neither by sociodemograph-ic and employment characteristics nor bypsychological and behavioural factors.They are only partially mitigated for in-dividuals who cohabit or have direct ex-posure to the virus. Researchers showthat their results are not due to differen-tial social desirability bias. This evidencehas important implications for publichealth policies and communication onCOVID-19, which may need to be gen-der-based, and it unveils a domain ofgender differences: behavioural changesin response to a new risk.

Anew measurement ofhow quickly stars cre-ate carbon may trigger

a major shift in our under-standing of how stars evolveand die, how the elements arecreated, and even the originand abundance of the build-ing blocks of life. Physicistsat the Australian NationalUniversity and the Universityof Oslo reproduced how starsmake carbon through a fleet-ing partnership of heliumatoms known as the Hoylestate in two separate meas-urements. They found thatcarbon -- the building blockof life -- is produced 34 per-cent faster than previouslythought.

"It's a really surprising re-sult, with profound implica-tions across astrophysics,"said Associate Professor Ti-bor Kibedi, one of the lead re-searchers from the Depart-ment of Nuclear Physics atANU. The Oslo experimentwas reported in Physical Re-view Letters, and the ANUfindings were published inPhysical Review C.

Stars produce carbonthrough the triple-alphaprocess, where three alphaparticles (helium nuclei) col-lide and fuse within a tinyfraction of a second. Thisprocess is so unlikely that formany years astrophysicistswere at a loss to explain howcarbon and heavier elementscould be created in the uni-verse. In 1953 renowned as-

tronomer Sir Fred Hoyle sug-gested a solution to the co-nundrum: a previously un-known excited state of car-bon, very close to the energyof the triple alpha process.This excited state, nowknown as the Hoyle state, andwould act as a steppingstoneto producing stable carbon.

This in turn paves theway for further fusion reac-tions, allowing stars to makethe heavier elements fromoxygen to iron and beyond.

The carbon and other ele-ments formed inside starseventually become the dustand gas from which planets

are formed. Here on Earth,carbon chemistry is the basisfor life.

"It's one of the miraclesof the material world. Simplyput, if the Hoyle state didn'texist, neither would we,"Kibedi said. Even with helpfrom the Hoyle state, the for-mation of stable carbon is stillvery unlikely. "For every2500 Hoyle state nuclei pro-duced, only one transitions tostable carbon. The rest fallapart," added Kibedi.

Directly measuring thecarbon production rate is verydifficult. Instead, physicistscalculate it indirectly from

observations of two differentHoyle state transitions. Tomeasure the first transition,Kibedi and his team at ANU'sHeavy Ion Accelerator Facil-ity (HIAF) fired a protonbeam at an extremely thinsheet of carbon to form Hoylestate nuclei. A tiny fraction ofthe excited nuclei transitionback to stable carbon by emit-ting an electron-positron pair,which the team detected withthe HIAF's SUPER-E pairspectrometer.

At the same time, Kibediand his team worked with re-searchers at the University ofOslo's Cyclotron Laboratory

to measure the second transi-tion, in which the Hoyle stateemits a photon. They ob-served six billion Hoyle statereactions, of which just 200decayed via the photon decay.

Combining the ANU andOslo results, the team calcu-lated the carbon productionrate, its first major update in40 years. They found it wasmore than a third larger thanpreviously thought, an enor-mous change for such a criti-cal astrophysical quantity.

"It was really unexpected.Nobody had looked at thisparticular measurement since1976. Everyone assumed it

was well known," said Kibe-di. According to Dr. MeridithJoyce from ANU's ResearchSchool of Astronomy and As-trophysics, such a large shiftwould be a major event forstellar astrophysicists. "Anincrease in the carbon pro-duction rate like this wouldhave a big impact on a lot ofour models," Joyce said. "Itwould affect our understand-ing of how stars change overtime, how they produce ele-ments heavier than carbon,how we measure the age ofstars and how long they willlast, how often we expect tosee supernova explosions,even whether they leave be-hind neutron stars or blackholes," Joyce added.

With so many astronomi-cal phenomena relying on themeasurement, such a big ad-justment to the previously ac-cepted value will attract a lotof scrutiny. Kibedi is opti-mistic that more experimentswill cement their results, in-cluding further work at theHIAF. "It's important thatmore experiments are done tosettle this.

The Oslo experiment isbeing repeated, and the pre-liminary analysis seems tosupport our findings," hesaid. "Our original plan hereat the ANU was to observedecays from both Hoyle statetransitions in a single experi-ment for the first time. I'mstill hopeful we can do that,"he added.

The election siron inBaroda has sound-ed. Bharatiya Janata

Party has exposed its de-termination by fielding itsold candidate Olympicplayer and striker Yogesh-war Dutt. The Assemblyby-election in Barodaseat, which was vacant af-ter the death of late Krish-namurthy Hooda, is in aninteresting phase from dayone and remains the cen-ter of discussion for thepeople and election ana-lysts of the country in thestate. It seems like theBaroda by-election willwitness a lot of reshufflelike a one-day cricketmatch. The late Krishna-

murthy Hooda won by4840 votes over his near-est candidate YogeshwarDutt with 42566 votes. Itis worth noting thatwrestler Yogeshwar Dutthad proved that he is noless in the electoral riottoo by taking 37726 votes.

The question is also thatout of 32840 votes re-ceived by the previous JJPcandidate Bhupendra Ma-lik, how many votes cango to the wrestler's ac-count? If the previousvotes of both the partiesare counted then 70566votes are formed whichseems to assure the BJP-JJP coalition governmentof victory. But there havebeen a lot of changes inthe circumstances. In the

politics of Haryana, thingshave changed rapidly afterthe Pipli farmer move-ment.

The rising of farmerstowards Dushyant Chau-tala While the AbhayChautala's soldier Jogin-dra Malik is being encour-aged to increase votes, theINLD workers are alsoclaiming victory on thestrength of this fury. In thelast election, Baroda had177994 votes out of which68% ie 122780 votes werepolled. In which Congressgot 34.64, BJP 30.73, JJP2.45 and BSP 2.67 per-cent. The number equa-tion seems to go directlyin favor of BJP-JJP, butthe farmer movementseems to be bringing a

twist to the story. KapoorNarwal, a strong personal-ity from Baroda region,who till recently was con-sidered a possible candi-date of BJP, Congress, canalso change the equation.

Interestingly, Dr. Nar-wal, independent ofMehmed and angry withthe government, has beenseen fulfilling the dreamof Balraj Kundu. Signifi-cantly, Balraj Kundu hasbeen engaged in establish-ing himself as a farmer Jatleader from the Hoodafamily.

Baroda by-election revolving around farmers' spin

During the pandemic,the amount of screentime for many people

working and learning fromhome as well as binge-watch-ing TV has sharply increased.New research finds that wear-ing blue-light glasses just be-fore sleeping can lead to a bet-ter night's sleep and contributeto a better day's work to fol-low.

"We found that wearingblue-light-filtering glasses isan effective intervention toimprove sleep, work engage-ment, task performance andorganizational citizenship be-haviour, and reduced counter-productive work behaviour,"said Cristiano L. Guarana, as-sistant professor of manage-ment and entrepreneurship atthe Indiana University KelleySchool of Business. "Wearingblue-light-filtering glassescreates a form of physiologicdarkness, thus improving bothsleep quantity and quality."

Most of the technologywe commonly use -- such ascomputer screens, smart-phones and tablets -- emitsblue light, which past researchhas found can disrupt sleep.Workers have become moredependent on these devices,especially as we navigate re-

mote work and school duringthe coronavirus pandemic.

The media have recentlyreported on the benefits ofblue-light glasses for thosespending a lot of time in frontof a computer screen. Thisnew research extends under-standing of the circadianrhythm, a natural, internalprocess that regulates thesleep-wake cycle and repeatsroughly every 24 hours. "Ingeneral, the effects of wearingblue-light-filtering glasseswere stronger for 'night owls'than for 'morning larks,'" saidGuarana, who previously hasstudied how lack of sleep af-

fects business decisions, rela-tionships and other behav-iours in organizations. "Owlstend to have sleep periods lat-er in the day, whereas larkstend to have sleep periods ear-ly in the day. "Although mostof us can benefit from reduc-ing our exposure to blue light,owl employees seem to bene-fit more because they en-counter greater misalignmentsbetween their internal clockand the externally controlledwork time. Our model high-lights how and when wearingblue-light-filtering glasses canhelp employees to live andwork better."

Blue-light glassesimproves sleep

Lord of My LifeThou who art theinnermost Spirit of mybeing,art thou pleased, Lord ofmy Life?For I give to thee my cupfilled with allthe pain and delight thatthe crushedgrapes of my heart hadsurrendered,I wove with rhythm of colors and songcover for thy bed,And with the molten gold of my desiresI fashioned playthings for thy passinghours.I know not why thou chosest me for thypartner,Lord of my life.Didst thou store my days and nights,my deeds and dreams for the alchemy ofthy art,and string in the chain of thy music mysongs of autumn and spring,and gather the flowers from my maturemoments for thy crown?I see thine eyes gazing at the dark of myheart,Lord of my life,I wonder if my failure and wrongs areforgiven.For many were my days without serviceand nights of forgetfulness; futile were theflowersthat faded in the shade not offered tothee.

He allegedthat the government hasalliances with these cementcompanies in the state due to whichcement made in the state is cheaperin the outer states and expensive inthe state. This clearly shows that thegovernment has given thesecompanies a free hand to loot thestate. People are forced to buycement at expensive rates.

injustice to the people of the state.Bablu alleged that people in thestate got frustrated due to wrongpolicies of BJP. Prices of petrol-diesel and electric water are alreadytouching sky and increasing the

prices of cement is addingto their woes. He said thatcement prices have notbeen raised for the first timeduring the Corona period.Even before this, cementcompanies had raised theprices of cement by calling

for a loss in the lockdown and therewas not a single voice of protestfrom the mouth of any minister orleader of the BJP government.

Bablu has also warnedthe government and cementcompanies that if they continue theirplunder in the same state, the YoungBrigade is not going to sit silent.
