DGP UMESH MISHRA PUTS DSP JITENDRA ANCHALIA ON APO Hemant Priyadarshy
his karyakarta from Gujarat shares with us how Narendra bhai is the perfect karyakarta and how he lives by his ideals. Narendra bhai has been the guiding light for her when it came to ways of accomplishing work at the ground level with precision. What stands out about Narendra bhai is his humility and sense of gratitude for every single person who has touched his life in a positive way . Once an Akhil Bhartiya Sammelan had to be organ- ized in Karnavati. Narendra bhai was working with us, I would say in the capacity of anadvisorandhewouldguide as about the fundamentals of organizing such an event. At that time, I was a total newbie, a novice in such work. I had no idea how to proceed in this regard and had not taken up a lot of responsibility . Soon it was time for the baithak to commence. We would get information and guidelines about all the work that had to be completed and we would accomplish all of that at the ground level. Now Narendra bhai used to be present in the meetings and we were all answerable for our tasks and of course, to the questions that Narendra bhai would put up to us. So it happened, Narendra bhai asked me, “Saroj ji, so what about the mahila baithak (meeting of women)?Wasitconvened?” I replied in the affirmative. Next question, “So Saroji ji, how many behene (sisters) attended the meeting?” “About 20-22”, I answered cheerfully . Suddenly he asked me, “Were there 20 or 22?” Now I was confounded. I did not have the exact answer for this question. In my notes I had jotted down 20-22 women attended the meet. But I just did not remember exactly if they were 20 or 22. So this is the first lessons he taught me. Al- ways be prepared with an exact answer. Narendra bhai is not someone who will take terminological inexactitude or imprecision in work light- ly. If you are not prepared, you are sure to flounder. I am happy that I got a lot of guidance and support from him. It was Narendra bhai from whom I learnt how to take down meeting notes, how totakedownnumberswithac- curacyinthemeetingregister andhowtomeetworkexpecta- tions. If I have been allotted somework,thenhowIamsup- posed to accomplish with per- fection, this is something I learnt from him. Narendra bhai was never satisfied with work done at a superficial level. He expected us to dive deep down in our allotted tasks, understand the specif- ics and come up with details that were exact and precise. Icanneverforgetthewayhe guided us with the minutest details possible for the sammelan. Often, we would be scratching our heads, wonder- inghowwemissedoutonsome minute but vital aspects that Narendrabhaiwouldpointout to us with such simplicity and in a matter-of-fact tone! I remember in 1980s there was an event in Aurangabad and Narendra bhai was one of the speakers in that event. The subject for discussion was “Karyakarta” – what are the qualities of a good karyakarta, the duties and responsibilities of a karyakarta, who actually is a karyakarta, what is the differ- ence between a swayamsevak and a karyakarta- and the way Narendra bhai dealt with each of these minor aspects was stupendous. His talk was remarkable for not just rhe- torical finesse but for the way in which he explained and defined the concept of karyakarta. And you know what, Narendra bhai’s speech is never something that would appeal to you at just the intel- lectual level. It will stir your soul, in fact your entire being will be captivated to the point of numbness when you listen to him. This happens because when he speaks, he speaks from his soul. Narendra bhai, during this talk, became so full of emotion himself, it was as if someone had immersed fully in the waters of duty, service and responsibilities of a karyakarta that every word of his talk was coming straight from the depth of Narendra bhai’s core. He had become the spirit incarnate of karyakarta! It is indeed rare to someone as eloquent, spontaneous and deeplikeNarendrabhai.Also, this speech by Narendra bhai about karyakarta was so im- pressive because every drop of his blood is steeped in the selfless duties and devotion of a karyakarta. These quintes- sential qualities of a karyakarta that Narendra bhai enumerated in his speech that day have served as the light- house for him, irrespective of his stature in politics. Wheth- er as CM or as PM, he has always served the country as the perfect karyakarta. When Narendra bhai says that a karyakarta behaves with equa- nimity with only his goal in sight, irrespective of whether he is praised or censured, we know he has lived by this quality practically every day of his life. There is a saying in Mar- athi which translates to “Go and serve Brahmgyaan to people. But within your own being you are as blank as a rock.” We use this often to refer to people who do not practice what they preach. But Narendra bhai stands apart from everyone as the lone stalwart who will never utter a word that is untrue to his own persona, his thoughts, his ideas and his actions. Last but not least, with great fondness I recollect the lunch at CM house for which he had invited all the prominent women karyakartas. No prominent dignitary had ever invited us to their residence in the past, not even the May- or, who had eventually become my friend. So after presenting a bouquet to Naren- dra bhai, we shared with him our happiness and our sense of disbelief that a CM should invite us. Do you know what his response was to this? My eyes filled with tears when I heard him say , “When I was a pracharak, every one of you has served me food at your home. And from each one of those interactions, I gained one valuable thought. This lunch today is my way of expressing my gratitude to each one of you for helping me develop mentally, physically and spiritually.” I only pray that Narendra bhai continues to serve our country with his selfless sense of devotion and may he be blessed with success in all his endeavours!

What stands out about Narendra bhai is his humility and sense of gratitude for every single person who has touched his life in a positive way. T here is a saying in Marathi which translates to “Go and serve Brahmgyaan to people.

The Transporter mission was the sixth dedicated smallsat ride- share mission for the company, which lifted off from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Ca- naveral Space Force Sta- tion in Florida. SpaceX used its Falcon-9 rocket to launch the satellites into Low Earth Orbit and said that this was the fifteenth launch and landing of this Falcon 9 stage booster. “Falcon 9 carried 114 spacecraft to orbit that was set to deploy across 82 deployments, 78 of which have been confirmed. Teams are con- tinuing to review data for the remaining pay- loads, though it may take customers some time to provide additional information on the status of their pay- loads,” SpaceX said in a statement.

Geneva (Agencies): China’s COVID-19 data is not giving an accu- rate picture of the situation there and under- represents the number of hospitalisations and deaths from the disease, a senior official at the World Health Or- ganization said on Wednesday. The U.N. agency was preparing to meet Chi- nese scientists again on Thursday as part of a wider briefing among member states on the global COVID-19 situation as concerns grow about the rapid spread of the virus in the world’s No. 2 economy. On Tuesday, China’s top scientists presented data to a WHO technical advisory group showing no new coronavirus variant had been found in the country of 1.4 billion people.

First India Bureau Kota: Medical college authorities have sought the Rajasthan govt’s permission to claim bodies of the destitute and those abandoned in shelter homes amid a crippling shortage of cadavers for students. Medical colleges in Kota and Jhalawar are grap- pling with severe shortage of cadavers, being forced to manage practical studies by grouping students together. Govt Medical College in Kota is conducting practical classes for its 250 students with 8 to 10 cadavers. Government Medical College in Jhal- awar, on the other hand, has only 6 cadavers for its 200 students. This practice, however, runs contrary to the National Medical Commission’s guidelines of one cadaver for 10 students. Ca- davers are human bodies used by medical students, physicians and other scientists to study anatomy, identify dis- easesitesanddetermine causes of death. Accepting the shortage of cadavers, Govt Medical College in Jhal- awar Dean SB Sharma saidhewrotetothestate govt two months ago to request permission for claiming bodies from shelter homes. Med colleges face cadaver shortage, looking to acquire unclaimed bodies There is a guideline for one cadaver on 10 students. —FILE PHOTO Sangeeta Sharma Jodhpur: The Indian Institute of Technology JodhpursignedaMemo- randum of Understand- ing (MoU) with Rishabh Instruments Ltd. and Ivaan Foundation to set up the Rishabh Centre for Research and Inno- vation in Clean Energy .

Resolve to spend half an hour daily with nature in 2023- Feel the Sun in your face, feel the grass under your feet, listen to the wind-Change your life! —Dr Jagdeesh Chandra, CEO Editor-in-Chief, First India JAIPUR | THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 2023 www.firstindia.co.in I https://firstindia.co.in/epapers/jaipur I twitter.com/thefirstindia I facebook.com/thefirstindia I instagram.com/thefirstindia 08 2NDFRONT POSTAL REG NO. JPC/004/2022-24 Rajendra Chhabra Jaipur: There is an age old adage in Hindi, ‘Kabhi Gaadi Naav Mein, Kabhi Naav Gaadi Mein,’ which holds true for two officers in Bharatpur. RAS officer Parshuram Dhanka was posted by State Government as ADM Bharatpur, however, Collector Alok Ranjan didn’t allow him to join, As a result, the senior RAS had to be embarrassed in the bureaucracy, along with this, he had to sit at home while being APO for past two months. But don’t know what did the DoP think, it posted Dhanka in Revenue Appellate Authority in Bharat- pur. In the administrative systems, Collector conducts hearing of appeal of RAA revenue cases in districts. Thus, now Parshuram Dhan- ka will conduct hearing of appeals on Collector Alok Ranjan’s orders and give decisions as well, which means that Dhanka is effectively on a ‘higher chair’ than Ranjan! It is worth noting that in districts, RAA conducts hearing on cases related to Land Revenue Act and Tenancy Act. RAA comes directly under Board of Revenue and the Collector doesn’t have the con- trol on them. Although this is an administrative discrepancy that the decisions and orders given by an IAS can be appealed before a ‘junior’ RAS cadre officer.In several states of the nation, an appeal on Collector’s decision is heard by Divi- sional Commissioners in Rajasthan, the IAS lobby has been de- manding this for a long time. But due to objec- tion by politicians, the situation has remained as it is. Secondly, land revenue cases are dime a dozen in districts thus, villagers can approach RAA with ease whereas, since there are seven Divisional Commissioners in State, it will become cumbersome for the ag- grieved to approach divisional headquarters. The post of RAA is considered extreme- ly important in the RAS cadre. Collector denies RAS from taking charge, Govt gives him ‘bigger chair’ than Collector! PREZ MURMU: SCOUTS GUIDES WORK FOR SOCIETY’S WELFARE Rajeev Gaur, Subhash Trivedi, Dimple Sharma Deepti Gautam Pali: President Droupa- di Murmu on Wednes- day said that Scouts and Guides do not work for their personal gain but for the benefit of the society . “There are many examples from all over the world including Martin Luther King Jr. whocampaignedagainst racism, and Bill Gates, whorevolutionizedtech- nology , who also worked as scouts in their lives.

A size- able portion of Indians now favours Western apparel over traditional outfits like sarees and dhotis, including jeans, trousers, skirts, T-shirts, suits, and shirts. However, a substantial segment of the populace likes to wear only traditional Indian attire. Intriguingly, during the past ten years, a stunning fusion of Indian and West- ern attire has gained popular- ity and is now referred to as “Indo-Western” or “Indo-West- ern fusion” clothing. Indo-Western fusion clothing is present as “the in thing” in India and is gener- ally liked by male, female, and child buyers. These clothes are becoming more common in In- dian culture and are now preferred for both formal and cas- ual occasions as well as for business attire. There are several designers that specialise in creating Indo-Western fusion clothing. As a result, the market is filled with various items of this clothing. Indo-Western fusion clothing typically combines Indian mo- tifs with Western-style patterns. Usually , ornate stoles are worn as an accessory to enhance the look of salwar ka- meez in Indo-Western fashion. Another kind of fusion that is prevalent nowadays is the em- ployment of regionally specific Indian ethnic embroidered de- signs, like Punjab’s phulkari and Rajasthan’s mirror work, on clothing with Westernized patterns. There are other in- stances when more ornate em- broidery techniques like Meenakari, Kundan, Resham, and Zardozi work are employed. In India right now, denim jackets and pants with embroi- dery and other decorations done in Indian style are all the rage. Both men and women like wearing the shorter form of the kurta, known as the “Kurti,” which is typically worn with a pair of denim slacks or trousers. Bridal clothing has progres- sively caught on to the Indo- Western fusion fashion trend. Grecian-style draping of sarees is getting more popular, and the design of saree blouses is becoming more and more West- ernized. Another example of Indo-Western fusion clothing that is becoming acceptable for a wedding dress is lehengas worn with halter tops. Accessories also contain this blending of aspects from Indi- an and Western civilizations, particularly jewellery. Indian traditional jewellery typically receives a slight Westerniza- tion so that it may be used with fusion clothing. In addition, big, hanging earrings, beads, and elaborate bracelets are popular with fusion clothing. FUSION FASHION FUNDA! Globalization has made it possible to recognise and incorporate other fashion cultures and moods. Indo-Western fashion, which combines Western and Indian fashion, is one example of this combination.
