ATTACK OF DRIVER ANTS

 In this clip from the BBC’s Natural World:                                                                                                     Ant Attack, we see central and east Africa’s powerful dorylus or driver ants hard at work.

A few fascinating facts: Seasonally, when food supplies become short, they leave the hill and form marching columns of up to 50,000,000 ants, which are considered a menace to people, though they can be easily avoided; a column can only travel about 20 metres in an hour… Their presence is, conversely, beneficial to certain human communities, such as the Maasai, as they perform a pest prevention service in farming communities, consuming the majority of other crop-pests, from insects to l

SAVE GIRLS

The existence of human life on the earth is impossible without the equal participation of both women and men. They are equally responsible for the survival of the human race on the earth. They are also liable for the development and growth of a nation. However, the existence of the woman is for more important than men. Because without her we cannot think about our existence. So, to save humans from extinction we have to take measures to save girl child.

It’s a common practice in India where people abort or kill girl child on birth. But, they should be saved given equal opportunity, and respect and opportunity to go ahead in life. Apart from that, the fate of civilization lies in their hand as they are the root of our creation.

Why does the Girl Child Need Saving?

There is various evil in our society; one of which happens to be the desire to have a boy. In Indian society, everyone wants an ideal mother, sister, wife, and daughter. But they never want that girl to be his blood relative. Besides, there are other social evils in society that forces many parents to avoid having a girl child. These other social evils are dowry deaths, female feticide, and some others.

What Girls Can Do?

Although girls are ahead of boys in many fields but still people prefer a boy child. Girls have proven themselves better in every field than boys. And due to their hard work and dedication, they have been to space also. They are more talented, obedient, hardworking, and responsible for the family and their life. Besides, girls are more caring and loving towards their parents. Above all, they give 100% in every work.

O MURDER MOST FOUL

1. “I do not have words to express myself”, I quote Rajnath Singh, speaking in the Lok Sabha, while participating in the debate held yesterday, on the murder in  Hyderabad of a young lady. I am afraid I am in the same predicament. The angst and the anguish that I feel are so pronounced and deep seated that it is painful to even breathe. 2. I wonder, if my father would even have begun to imagine that is would be the state of the country, when I was brought into this world? How have we so conveniently forgotten our ‘sanskriti’, our value system that we learnt at the knees of our grandparents and our parents? How have we forgotten that ladies were respected and even venerated in the Vedic times when India was not the India of the present, but a medley of kingdoms within the geographical expanse of the sub-continent? The Veds and the Upanishads are replete with examples of women philosophers, brahmavdinis, teachers and saints. They also clearly indicate the elevated status of w

COVID-19 IN INDIA

Despite a strong response at the outset of the pandemic, as of Sept 22, India has the world's fastest growing outbreak of COVID-19 in absolute numbers according to WHO, reporting more than 5·6 million infections. Restrictions began to be lifted in June, and this relaxation has continued in the face of a continuing dramatic increase in case numbers nationally. Beneath these alarming national figures, the pattern of spread in India is nuanced and complex, with marked differences between states, and between rural and urban areas. For example, cities like Kolkata and rural areas in the north of India were relatively spared the outbreak initially, whereas Delhi, with strong international connections, was at the forefront of the first wave. Even so, India is clearly facing a dangerous period. The country has responded well in many regards, especially for such a large and diverse nation. India instigated a national lockdown in March, which was praised by WHO. During the lockdo

PLASTIC POLLUTION

  Plastic is everywhere nowadays. People are using it endlessly just for their comfort. However, no one realizes how it is harming our planet. We need to become aware of the consequences so that we can stop plastic pollution. Kids should be taught from their childhood to avoid using plastic. Similarly, adults must check each other on the same. In addition, the government must take stringent measures to stop plastic pollution before it gets too late. Uprise of Plastic Pollution Plastic has become one of the most used substances. It is seen everywhere these days, from supermarkets to common households. Why is that? Why is the use of plastic on the rise instead of diminishing? The main reason is that plastic is very cheap. It costs lesser than other alternatives like paper and cloth. This is why it is so common. Secondly, it is very easy to use. Plastic can be used for almost anything either liquid or solid. Moreover, it comes in different forms which we can easily mold. Furthermore, we s

Hydroelectric plant

    Another conventional source of energy is the kinetic energy of flowing water or the state energy of water at a height. In a hydro power plant, the potential energy of the falling water is converted into electrical energy. Which can be used as a source of static energy. Since the number of such water-falls is very low, hydro power plants have been associated with dams. Many dams have been built around the world in the last century. A quarter of our energy demand is supplied by hydro power plants.    High dams are built on the river to collect water in large reservoirs by blocking the flow of water to generate hydroelectricity.  The water level rises and in this process the kinetic energy of the flowing water is carried through the energy to the turbine at the bottom of the dam through pipes.  Every time the reservoir is replenished with water due to rain (hydroelectricity is a recoverable source) Thus, we do not have to worry about the destruction of hydroelectric

STATUE OF UNITY

 Sure, numbers don’t lie but just numbers didn’t really give us an idea about how big the Statue of Unity really is. To understand their true meaning we had to feel them. We knew that the Statue of Unity, standing at 182 metres is now the world’s tallest statue. But not until we stood next to it, dwarfed even by the feet of the Iron Man of India, did we grasp the full enormity of this statue. Statue of Unity, Kevadia, Gujarat, India What is the Statue of Unity? The Statue of Unity is the statue of Sardar Vallabhai Patel. He is popularly referred to as the Iron Man of India. Post India’s independence in 1947, he played a pivotal role in bringing all the then-disjointed princely states into the Union of India. As a tribute to his towering personality, the statue, the tallest statue in the world, is rightly called the Statue of Unity. The enigma of this visit to the Statue of Unity starts with its story. In 2013 kits were sent to nearly 169000 villages of India to collect soil and iron of

CHANDRAYAAN-2

22 જુલાઈ 2019 ચંદ્રયાન 2ની લાંન્ચિંગ થઈ. ભારતનું ચંદ્ર પર જવાનું મિશન ચંદ્રયાન-2 22 જુલાઈ 2019ના બપોરે 2.43 વાગ્યે લૉન્ચ થયું હતું. એક અઠવાડિયા પહેલા તે લાંચ થવાનુ હતુ પણ ટેકનિકલ કારણસર ચંદ્રયાન લૉન્ચ થઈ શક્યું નહોતું. ઈસરોના એક પૂર્વ વૈજ્ઞાનિકે જણાવ્યા અનુસાર, " 9 જુલાઈથી 16 જુલાઈ વચ્ચેનો સમય મિશન લૉન્ચ કરવા માટે આદર્શ હતો." "સોમવારે વૈજ્ઞાનિકો પાસે યાન લૉન્ચ કરવા માટે માત્ર જૂજ મિનિટોની તક હશે, જેમાં અતિશય ચોકસાઈ સાથે કામ કરવું પડશે. આ વખતે મોડું કરવાનો સમય નહીં હોય તેથી જ બધી જ તૈયારીઓ સાથે સજ્જ રહેવું" 16 જુલાઈના રોજ સવારે લૉન્ચ કરવાના બે કલાક પહેલાં વૈજ્ઞાનિકોને હિલિયમની ગૅસ ચૅમ્બરમાં દબાણ ઘટતું જણાતા આ મિશન રોકી દેવાયું હતું. વિલંબ છતાં આ યાન 6 સપ્ટેમ્બરે જ ચંદ્ર પર પહોંચશે, હવે તેનો માર્ગ બદલવામાં આવ્યો છે. ચંદ્રયાન-1 એ ચંદ્રની સપાટી પર પાણીના અવશેષોના પુરાવા આપ્યા હતા, તેથી વિશ્વના વૈજ્ઞાનિકોની નજર ચંદ્રયાન-2 પર છે.   ભારતીય અંતરિક્ષ મિશન હેઠળ મીલનો પત્થર માનવામાં આવતા મિશન ચંદ્રયાન-2ની લોંચિંગ થવામાં હજુ બસ થોડાક જ કલાક રહી ગયા હતા. બધી તૈયારીઓ

A WONDER FULL CREATION

  The good Lord was extremely busy that day. He was into his Sixth day of overtime. When he was working with full concentration, an angel appeared and commented, "You are taking so much care For creating this creature."  "That's true", said the Lord. "Do you want to know the details?”  "What are they?" the angel was curious. "All her parts should be movable andreplaceable too. She has a lump that disappears when she stands up. I have to endow her with kiss that can cure everything -from a broken leg to a broken heart. Moreover, she Has to have six pairs of hands. She must be able to run on any food available....and...Should have three pairs of eye." The angel shook his head slowly and said, "A mighty impossible task, I suppose. Six pairs of hands? No way!” "No, these hands are not a problem for me. It is the three pairs of eyes that the mothers have to have." Lord looked puzzled. "Oh, so you are creating a standard mo
