Nagpur updates:- महाराष्ट्र-कर्नाटक सीमा भागातील मराठी शाळा टिकवण्यासाठी तसेच तेथील सांस्कृतिक संस्था, ग्रंथालय व नाट्यचळवळ वाढविण्यासाठी राज्य शासन प्रयत्न करेल, अशी ग्वाही मराठी भाषा मंत्री सुभाष देसाई यांनी आज येथे दिली.महाराष्ट्र-कर्नाटक सीमा भागातील मराठी शाळा, सांस्कृतिक संस्था, ग्रंथालय व नाट्यगृहांच्या समस्यांवर चर्चा करण्यासाठी आयोजित बैठकीत श्री. देसाई बोलत होते. महाराष्ट्र एकीकरण समितीच्या सदस्यांनी यावेळी विविध समस्या मांडल्या.

महाराष्ट्र-कर्नाटक सीमा भागात बेळगाव खानापूर, बिदर, कारवार आदी भागात शेकडो मराठी शाळा आहेत. परंतु कर्नाटक सरकार व कन्नड भाषिकांच्या अन्यायामुळे या शाळा चालवणे कठीण झाले आहे. मराठी शाळांतील शिक्षकांना सरकारी नोकरीचा लाभ मिळत नाही. सांस्कृतिक कार्यक्रमांवर बंधने घातली जात आहेत. मराठी नाटके दाखवल्यास भरमसाठ कर आकारला जात आहे, आदी समस्या एकीकरण समितीच्या सदस्यांनी यावेळी मांडल्या.

दरम्यान, सीमा भागातील मराठी माणसांच्या न्याय हक्कासाठी मुख्यमंत्री उद्धव ठाकरे यांच्या नेतृत्वाखालील शासन सतत प्रयत्न करत आहे. येथील मराठी शाळा टिकल्या पाहिजेत, असे शासनाचे धोरण आहे. याचाच एक भाग म्हणून नादुरूस्त किंवा मोडकळीस आलेल्या शाळांची पाहणी केली जाईल. स्थानिक मुख्याध्यापकांनी प्राथमिक अहवाल सादर करून यासंदर्भातील परिपत्रक काढण्याच्या सूचना श्री. देसाई यांनी शिक्षण विभागाला दिल्या.

सीमा भागात मराठी शिक्षक उपलब्ध असतील तर त्यांना प्राधान्याने मराठी शाळांत नोकरीची संधी देण्यात येईल. याशिवाय मराठी नाट्य चळवळ टिकवण्यासाठी स्थानिकांनी मराठी नाटके सादर केल्यास राज्य शासन त्यांना अर्थसहाय्य देण्याचा विचार करेल, असे श्री. देसाई यांनी सांगितले.

सीमा भागातील मराठी शाळासह, ग्रंथालय, सांस्कृतिक भवन, समाज मंदिर आदींना शासन मदत करेल. सीमावर्ती भागातील समस्यांवर प्रकरण निहाय मार्ग काढू, महाराष्ट्र एकीकरण समितीने याबाबत प्रस्ताव सादर करावा, अशा सूचना श्री. देसाई यांनी केल्या.

या बैठकीला मराठी भाषा विभागाच्या सचिव प्राजक्ता लवंगारे, सहसचिव अपर्णा गावडे, सांस्कृतिक संचालक बिभीषण चवरे, मराठी सांस्कृतिक प्रतिष्ठानेचे अध्यक्ष नारायण कापुलकर, महाराष्ट्र एकीकरण समितीचे सरचिटणीस श्री. मगरागळे, माजी आमदार दिंगबर पाटील, माजी आमदार अरविंद पाटील, मराठी विद्यार्थी केंद्राचे दीपक पवार आदी उपस्थित होते.

The markets were volatile this morning as market participants tried to make sense of the budgetary proposals and to digest the fine printing in the budget papers. In mid-morning, domestic stock markets recovered on the back of strength in selected FMCG and auto stocks. The markets were volatile this morning as market participants tried to make sense of the budgetary proposals and to absorb the fine printing in the budget documents.

The Sensex has already fluctuated in a wide range between a high 40,006 and a low 39,563. It may be recalled that the Sensex had fallen 987 points or 2.4% to 39,735 and the Nifty50 index had fell 2.6% to 11,643 to hit 3-month lows on Saturday, as the Finance Minister’s second budget had failed to enthuse the markets.

At 10.45 a.m., the Sensex had recovered more than 300 points from intraday lows and was 39.914, 179 points or 0.4% higher, and the Nifty was 11.721, 59 points or 0.5%  higher. The broader markets were also aligned with the benchmark indices, with the BSE Midcap index being 15292, 172 or 1.1% higher and the BSE Smallcap index being 14,407, 62 or 0.4% higher.

Among the individual stocks, Nestle India, Hindustan Unilever, ICICI Bank, Maruti Suzuki, and Bajaj Auto have increased between 1.8% and 5% each to emerge as the main winners of BSE. IndusInd Bank and NTPC are the other major winners this morning. On the other hand, ITC extended its Saturday 7% fall to Rs 211 by another 3% after the government raised the excise duty on tobacco. L&T and Infosys also experienced a selling pressure on BSE, with losses of 0.7% to 4% each.

Market breadth slightly favored bears; out of 2006 stocks traded on BSE, 997 stocks declined compared to 893 advances.

As the admission season for free seats under the 25% Right to Education (RTE) quota draws near, a city-based education activist called on the government to address the issue of residential address mapping first.

The map interface is integrated into the software and helps the applicant parents/guardians to mark their home on Google Maps, which are then considered for admission. This is important because, in the case of RTE admission, distance is a key criterion, as priority is given to the person who lives closest to the schools.

Education activist Shahid Sharif said, “Software needs a complete overhaul, as many people face problems while submitting the form. In the application form when the map interface is opened, the applicant must position the balloon at his residence after which the actual distance is measured automatically. “Sharif also protested to the education department last year but says nothing has yet been done. “If the program is faulty, how can it be used for admissions? Every year, I have parents complaining about this, but nothing happens, “said Sharif. The education department official, who did not wish to be identified, said that it could not be a software error.

“If there was a glitch, thousands of parents would have been affected. Nonetheless, considering that the number is so small, it is obvious that there is a manual error on the part of the applicants. When positioning the balloon, it is likely that the balloon will not drop to precisely the same position as it was intended to create a problem, “the official said.

Once the RTE lottery has been completed, the program assigns seats to students and parents must complete the admission formalities on the basis of that. Hardly a few schools check the actual location where the applicant is living, as it does not matter whether’ A’ or’ B’ is accepted.

Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena Chairman Uddhav Thackeray said he would always remain firm on the’ Hindutva’ philosophy and not compromise on that.”I am still firm on Hindutva, and I will always be. No compromise on that, “Thackeray said in an interview with Shiv Sena, Saamana’s mouthpiece.

Thackeray said, “He never ran away from obligations, and never did.” “So, I’m trying to do whatever is possible without harming anybody. If I choose to go to the Legislature through the Assembly, someone would have to resign and the by-elections would have to be held. So, the Legislative Council will be more convenient than I can go through it without hurting anyone or asking anyone to resign, “he said.

On BJP’s allegation of’ Hindutva,’ Thackeray said, “Have I been converted from my religion? Do they want to say that they have the final authority over Hindutva? It’s ridiculous to think that only their version is true, and everyone else is wrong.

Praising Union Minister Nitin Gadkari for taking Nagpur to a different height in terms of transport, roads and introducing national institutions, Dr. Nitin Raut said, “Development comes when we go beyond the party line. Gadkari is a visionary leader and has planned a number of things that will benefit the city in the years to come.

We will continue to work together and I will extend full support to AIIMS, “said Dr. Raut. Noting the rapid development of the India Institute of Medical Sciences in Nagpur (AIIMS), Union Minister Nitin Gadkari expressed his expectation that the institution will build its reputation in the world of super-specialty care. Gadkari spoke at AIIMS Nagpur premises in MIHAN in a function organized on Sunday to celebrate the second day of its foundation.

Nagpur Guardian Minister Dr Nitin Raut, Rajya Sabha Member and Member of the Board of Directors of AIIMS Padmashri Dr Vikas Mahatme, Ceo of AIIMS Maj Gen Dr Vibha Dutta, SM sat on the dais. Recognizing his experience when he was in Delhi AIIMS for his own care, he felt that such AIIMS should also be present in other parts of the country. “The AIIMS has now entered many locations.

Nagpur has also developed its name in the field of engineering as well as in the field of medicine. I remember people going to Mumbai, Delhi, for minor cardiac surgery. Yet things have changed and people can make use of every single health facility in Nagpur.

I want AIIMS to meet the needs of all the mega speciality healthcare facilities. People should come to Nagpur AIIMS for care from all over the world, “said Gadkari. Gadkari said, “This is the age of the Park of Medical Devices. We have set up such a park in  Vishakhapattanam, where MRI was produced in only Rs 98 lakh, which actually costs Rs 6 crore.

We are planning to set up such a facility park in Nagpur, MIHAN. Gadkari suggested AIIMS start the sickle cell unit. He informed the audience that normally people in the caste community are suffering from sickle cell disease. There are 85,000 people living with this disease in North Nagpur alone. He also mentioned the name of Dr. Vinky Rughwani, who runs a sickle cell and thalassemia treatment center in Jaripatka.

He proposed that AIIMS take the aid of Dr. Rughwani. Dr. Vikas Mahatme told the AIIMS authorities that he had spoken to the Mayor of Nagpur Sandip Joshi about transporting patients to and from the area. Dr Vibha Dutta made an introductory speech. Dean of AIIMS Dr. Mrunal Phatak has proposed a vote of thanks. All guests gave awards to students who excelled in their respective categories.

Among those present were Dr. Sunil Khaparde, Adviser to the Government of India for Health, Dr. Sanjay Paithankar, Team Vigyan Bharati Narendra Satfale, Dr. P Sivaswaroop, Regional Director of Indira Gandhi National Open University, Dr. Pramod Padole, Director of Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology, Dr. P K Deshpande, well-known cardiac surgeon, etc. Dr. Raut recalls Dr. Chaube’s vision Dr. Nitin Raut recalled the recollection of the opening of Nagpur’s Super Specialty Hospital by Dr. Shankar Dayal Sharma, then President of India.

At the same time, Dr. B. S. Chaube, then Dean of the Government Medical College and Hospital, expressed the desire that AIIMS as a institute should be taken to Nagpur. Nitin Gadkari fulfilled that dream, said Dr. Raut. Later, in his speech, Gadkari also admitted what Dr. Chaube had said.

कोल्हापुर के रामा सुतार ने कुछ ऐसा किया है के सुनकर आप भी हैरान रह जायेंगे। 

कहते है “प्रतिभा किसी डिग्री की मोहताज़ नहीं होती”  ये बात कोल्हापुर के चंदगड जिले के निट्टूर में रहने वाले रामा सुतार ने सच साबित करदी है। रामा सुतार पेशे से तो एक लघु व्यापारी है जो बैग्स बनाते है। लेकिन विज्ञान में इनकी रूचि और लग्न इन्हे बाकी लोगों से अलग करती है। कोल्हापुर के रामा सुतार ने एक ऐसा सेफ्टी बैग लॉन्च किया है जो एक ऍप द्वारा संचालित होता है। इस ट्रैवेलिंग बैग में सेंसर लगे हुए है। इसकी कार्यप्रणाली कुछ इस तरह की है यदि आप कहीं ट्रैन से यात्रा कर रहे हैं ,तब आप अपने मोबाइल डिवाइस में सेफ्टी बैग का एप्प ऑन करदे। जैसे ही कोई अनजान व्यक्ति या चोर आपका बैग उठा कर ले जाने लगेगा। उस वक़्त एक शार्प अलार्म ‘चोर चोर पकड़ा पकड़ा’ कर के आवाज़ आने लगेगी। जिससे आपको बैग के किसी अनजान शख्स के हाथ लगने की तुरंत जानकारी हो जाएगी और इससे बैग और उसमे रखें कीमती सामान को चोरी होने से बचाया जा सकेगा।

सिर्फ ये ही नहीं बल्कि रामा सुतार ने महिलाओं पर दिन ब दिन बढ़ते जा रहे अपराधों को देखते हुए, एक और सेफ्टी डिवाइस मार्केट में उतारने जा रहे हैं। जानकर आप भी हैरान होंगे के ये सेफ्टी डिवाइस  कुछ और नहीं बल्कि हमारे रोजमर्रा में काम आने वाली एक चप्पल है । पर ये कोई आम चप्पल नहीं है इसमें सेंसर लगे हुए और कुछ सेफ्टी बटन दिए हुए है ,किसी भी परेशानी या इमरजेंसी की स्तिथि में दिए हुए बटनों को दबाने पर ये कॉल सीधा पोलीस स्टेशन ,और महिला के घर वालों जैसे पति या माता पिता को कनेक्ट कर देगा । जिससे उन्हें महिला किसी खतरे में है पता लग जायेगा। तो है ना ये कमाल की बात ,बिना किसी इंजीनियरिंग या प्रोफेशनल डिग्री के बावजूद रामा सुतार ये काम बड़ी आसानी से कर रहे हैं। इससे पहले भी वो साइंस एंड फेस्टिवल जैसे कई एक्सहिबीशन्स में  लगभग 100 तरह के आइटम्स प्रस्तुत कर चुके हैं। निश्चित ही इनका यह कदम अति सराहनीय और प्रेरणादायी है
