TUTU’S
TRUE SELF
ith the passing of
Archbishop Des-
mond Tutu, the world
has lost an unstoppa-
ble force for good who
taught compassion and forgive-
ness, and pursued his mission
with a will of iron. ‘Arch’ will be
rightly remembered as the inter-
national voice of the anti-apart-
heid movement and for his place
beside Nelson Mandela in the
decades-long fight for racial
equality and justice in South Af-
rica. But he touched people’s
lives in many ways.
He was never afraid to take on
the establishment – religious,
cultural, or political. He was a
brilliant communicator and wily
campaigner who could make au-
diences laugh and cry within
minutes. He knew how to press
the right emotional buttons and
convey difficult messages, often
using stories to get his point
across. While traveling with him,
it was not unusual to see leaders,
including presidents and prime
ministers, listening like children
to one of his stories, then realiz-
ing that the point of the tale was
directed squarely at them.

ty and the planet, too?

We each have an environ-

relate to nature. Balancing the
scales of reciprocity between
us and nature – how much we
giveandtake–canimprovethis
relationship in many ways.
The perils of social injus-
tice stress multiple aspects
of society. Racism and ine-
quality can lead to health dis-
parities, and they also have
consequences for the natural
environment.
A recent study described
how practices such as redlin-
ing and residential segrega-
tion led to unequal access to
nature, excess pollution and
biodiversity loss. Clean air,
water and soil are fundamen-
tal for our survival, but re-
search shows many people
lack basic environmental
and health literacy to know
how to protect themselves. In
2022, get to know your own
impact on the environment.
Spending time in nature,
including urban green spac-
es, can improve your relation-
ship with nature and with
others. Spending more time
outdoors can encourage so-
cial interactions that benefit
health, buffer emotional dis-

W
LET’S STOP LITTERING,
STARTWASTESEGREGATION
t’s said that cleanliness is next
to Godliness. How true this is
we realise, when a place that is
neat and clean, and spick and
span automatically generates
the feel good factor and a boost
to good hormones. Not for
nothing do we pay at a clean
shop, hotel, restaurant or re-
sort good prices and seek edu-
cation in schools and colleges
and other institutions where
theenvironmentisfresh,clean
and thereby having a charm
and attraction of its own.
However, despite these
deeply accepted views and ex-
pected patterns of individual
and social behaviour do we
keep our public places free
from litter? Despite provi-
sions in our Constitution,
Acts and rules, teachings at
schools and at home and cam-
paigns and programs by the
Union and State Govern-
ments, including the present
Swach Abhiyaan, we find that
the habit of littering in public
places, specially roads and
streetsunfortunatelypersists.
It is not an uncommon to
see plastic wraps of biscuits,
namkeens, gutka pouches
and used plates, cups being
thrown openly everywhere
and remaining as an eyesore
till at some point they get
swept away mixed with the
other bio-degradable items.
Often the light plastic bags
blow with the wind and can
be seen hanging on the trees
and on top of hedges.
Wherever there are big Mu-
nicipal or Panchayat bins or
appointed dumping sites, they
overflowwithhouseholdwaste
of a wide ranging mix giving
rise to foul smell and animals
trying to extract to see what
they can get out of the bin.
There is no doubt that an
environment littered with all
kinds of waste is not only an
extremely bad sight but is
also very damaging to our
health and one of the main
causes of illnesses, diseases
and infection. Besides, plas-
tics, which are non biodegrad-
able,getintodrainsandchoke
them and even flow into the
seas and oceans. They often
collect together almost like
islands on which the birds
andaquaticlifefeedassuming
they are food and having ad-
verse consequences.
In such a scenario it is vital
for us as citizens, in the first
place to stop littering public
places, use dustbins regular-
ly, which the public authori-
ties do put and to demand for
them to be put if not there,
and to ensure regular picking
up of refuse and cleaning of
the bins.
And the next important
stage for cleanliness and good
hygiene is segregation of
waste at source i.e. at house-
hold, factory, shops and other
industrial and institutional
places. Usually waste is cate-
gorised as biodegradable and
non biodegradable. This is
the key basis for segregation.
And within these two catego-
ries is the distinction of dry
and wet waste.
Household waste consists
of fruits and vegetable peels,
left-over food and other items
which are biodegradable.
These can be set apart and
given to the pick-up truck.
Other waste like newspapers,
glass bottles, cartons, used
iron and steel items are often
purchased by the ‘kabaddi’
who further resell it for reuse
and recycling. The critical
items are the plastic ones
which include grocery wrap-
pings, thermocol packing and
packaging of wet items like
ghee, oil, milk, Dhabi etc. It is
vital to segregate dry and wet
plastics and an easy way is to
put the dry plastic wraps , af-
ter opening the items , imme-
diately into a separate bag.
There are some NGOs who
have put up collection centers
from where the plastic goes to
the appropriate plant includ-
ing use in road making. The
shops, offices, institutions
have substantial quantities
of dry plastic waste and
wrappings which can also be
disposed of in a similar way
thus reducing the waste that
comes onto the streets and
goes onto the waste dumps.
The wet plastic waste is a
tricky matter and some items
are purchased by the kabadis
but not all. To this end the
municipalities and panchay-
ats should have separate com-
partments for wet and dry
plastic wastes in their trucks
and then further take them
for reuse or recycling and sci-
entific disposal.
As we move into our 75th
year of Independence, we as
citizensneedtoberesponsible

7. New Delhi: The Fifth
Generation or 5G tele-
com services are set to
be rolled out in selected
cities in India in 2022.
The cities which are set
to get the 5G telecom
services in 2022 include
Gurugram, Bangalore,
Kolkata, Mumbai,
Chandigarh, Delhi,
Jamnagar, Ahmadabad,
Chennai, Hyderabad,
Lucknow, Pune, and
Gandhinagar.
Leading telecom ser-
vice providers Bharti
Airtel, Reliance Jio and
Vodafone Idea, have es-
tablished 5G trials sites
in these cities. “These
Metros and big cities
would be the first places
for launch of 5G servic-
es in the country, next
year,” the Department
of Telecommunications
(DoT) said on Monday.
The fifth-generation is
the latest upgrade in
the long-term evolution
(LTE) mobile broad-
band networks. While
4G was a great leap for-
ward, allowing people
to stream music and
video on the go, 5G is
designed to connect
many more types of de-
vices than smartphones
and offers higher speed.
Apart from the lead-
ing telecom operators
and smartphone manu-
facturers, the govern-
ment is also involved
actively to facilitate the
rollout of 5G services.
The Department of Tel-
ecom has roped in re-
search institutions for
development and test-
ing of 5G technology
.
Eight agencies - Indi-
an Institute of Technol-
ogy (IIT) Bombay, IIT
Delhi, IIT Hyderabad,
IIT Madras, IIT Kanpur,
Indian Institute of Sci-
ence (IISC) Bangalore,
Society for Applied Mi-
crowave Electronics
Engineering Re-
search (SAMEER) and
Centre of Excellence in
Wireless Technology
(CEWiT) — are involved
in the research project
called ‘Indigenous 5G
Test bed project’.
The Indigenous 5G
Test bed project started
in 2018 and is set to be
completed by December
31, 2021. The project has
been funded by the De-
partment of Telecom.
“Costing Rs 224 crore,
the project is likely to
be completed by Decem-
ber 31, 2021, paving the
way for end-to-end test-
ing of 5G User Equip-
ments (UEs) and net-
work equipment by 5G
stakeholders develop-
ing 5G products/servic-
es/usecases, including
indigenous start-ups,
SMEs, Academia and
Industry in the coun-
try,” the Department of
Telecom said. —ANI

Kolkata: West Bengal
Governor Jagdeep
Dhankar on Monday
said that the Howrah
Municipal Corporation
(Amendment) Bill is
currently pending con-
sideration with the gov-
ernor as he is awaiting
inputs on the bill from
the state government.
“I have not signed
Howrah Municipal Cor-
poration (Amendment)
Bill, 2021. I want to clar-
ify that no proposal was
sent to me on separat-
ing Bally Municipality
from Howrah Munici-
pal Corporation,” said
Dhankar in a video
posted on Twitter on
Monday
. “The state gov-
ernment claims that I
am delaying the bill,
you would be surprised
to know that I received
the bill on November 24
and I asked for some in-
formation regarding
the bill on the same day
.
For almost four weeks,
they didn’t respond to
me,” he said.
“I haven’t received a
proper response from
the government over
my queries regarding
the bill,” he added.
The Howrah Munici-
pal Corporation
(Amendment) Bill, 2021,
proposing Bally Munic-
ipality from the juris-
diction of the Howrah
Municipal Corporation,
was passed by the As-
sembly recently
.
State EC can hold
Howrah Municipal Cor-
poration polls with 66
wards as (it happened
earlier) in 2015, said
Dhankar. —ANI
DHANKHAR: HAVE NOT SIGNED HOWRAH CIVIC BODY
BILL, STILL WAITING FOR INPUTS FROM MAMATA GOVT
West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar tweeted as photo with his
wife Sudesh on Monday captioned,“After brisk walk sipping tea in
Darjeeling is exhilarating with mesmerizing sublime surroundings...
Efforts on...
He said that earlier,
the share of Centre
and state in central
schemes used to be
in the ratio of 90:10
but now the Centre
is reducing it to
50:50.
Gehlot asked Un-
ion minister of state
for culture Arjun-
ram Meghwal to con-
vey the feeling of the
state to the Centre.
Gehlot said that he
has been union tour-
ism minister and he
knows the impor-
tance of tourism.
Meghwal said that
the five places where
light and sound
shows were inaugu-
rated have great im-
portance from histo-
ry and tourism point
of view.
State tourism min-
ister Vishvendra
Singh said that the
tourism industry of
the state affected by
corona is again on
track and has got a
major boost due to
the decisions and ef-
forts of the state gov-
ernment.
He urged Meghw-
al to take initiative
for early approval of
eight mega projects
of the state pending
at the central gov-
ernment level.
Impressed by the
working style of
tourism minister
Vishvendra Singh,
CM Gehlot appreci-
ated him during the
virtual inauguration
of the light and
sound shows. On the
other hand, Singh
requested the CM to
extend the period of
discount on Khadi
products from De-
cember 30,2021 to
January 30, 2022. He
handed over a letter
to Gehlot regarding
this.
The Light and
Sound Show was
started at Jai Ni-
was Udyan in
Jaipur after the
virtual inaugura-
tion by CM Ashok
Gehlot. Principal
Secretary Tourism
Gayatri Rathore,
MD Nishant Jain,

tor were present in

has got the project
prepared at a cost
of 3.67 crores. The
script of the show
has been prepared
by poet Dr. Kumar
Vishwas while mu-
sic and back-
ground score is by

Bhatt. Citizens and

Jaipur: Chief Minister
Ashok Gehlot on Mon-
day, said that while ful-
filling its promise of
loan waiver to the farm-
ers, a proposal has been
sent to the banks to pro-
vide relief to poor farm-
ers by bringing one-
time loan waiver
scheme for waiver of
crop loans of national-
ised banks. By imple-
menting this proposal,
the nationalised banks
should extend neces-
sary cooperation to the
state government in
loan waiver of farmers.
Gehlot was address-
ing the 151st meeting of
State Level Bankers
Committee (SLBC) and
Rajasthan State Level
Loan Seminar 2022-23
of NABARD through
video conference from
the CMR on Monday
. He
further said that in the
one-time loan waiver
scheme recently intro-
duced by State Bank of
India (SBI), agricultur-
al loans classified as
NPAs have been waived.
Under this, 90 percent
of the loan has been
waived by the bank
while the remaining 10
percent has been given
by the farmer.
On the lines of this
scheme, other banks
should also bring relief
to the poor farmers. He
said that the state gov-
ernment is ready to give
10 percent of the farm-
er’s share in this.
As soon as the gov-
ernment was formed,
first of all, by issuing
loan waiver orders to
the farmers, till now Rs
14,000 crore of coopera-
tive banks’ loans are
waived, including the
previous government’s
loan worth Rs 6,000
crore.
According to govern-
ment, loans of farmers’
accounts of national-
ised banks declared
NPA on Nov 30, 2018, are
yet to be waived off.
Smile - and spread smiles -
choose to be kind and loving
today and in the coming
year 2022.

Rajendra Chhabra
Jaipur: This week is
important for the State
Bureaucracy as a ma-
jor reshuffle from top
level to District Collec-
tors is on the cards. A
transfer list of IAS of-
ficers is expected by
Friday and Saturday.
Like every year, the de-
partment of personnel
will release the order
of promotion of the
IAS officers on the New
Year’s eve.
Having completed 30
years in the service, the
1992-batch officer Ab-
hay Kumar will become
Additional Chief Sec-
retary (ACS). He will be
8th ACS in state and 4th
ACS sitting in Sec-
retariat.
Vaibhav Galriya, T
Ravikanth and Subir
Kumar, officers of the
1998 batch, will be pro-
moted to the post of
Principal Secretary.
Galriya and Ravi-
kanth will have to quit
the present chair be-
cause Akhil Arora is
the Principal Secretary
of their departments.
In such a situation,
new appointments will
be made on the post of
Secretary Medical,
Medical Education and
Finance Secretary (R).
Several officers are
in the race to acquire
these three positions
and the entire bureau-
cracy is also very keen
about these three
posts.
V Sarvana Kumar is
one among 7 officers of
the 2006 batch, who will
become Secretary
. He is
currently the Special
Secretary in the Home
Department, but
Suresh Chand Gupta is
already Secretary in
the department. If the
government wants, it
can make two secretar-
ies in the Home Depart-
ment otherwise, trans-
fer of Sarvana Kumar
is for sure.
It is most likely that
Principal Secretaries
and Secretaries in the
major department
would be changed at the
time of the new ap-
pointment of the new
Chief Secretary on Feb-
ruary 1, but there is also
a possibility of some
changes on January 1.
However, one trans-
fer list of secretary
level officers would be
released due to the new
posting of Secretaries
in Finance, Medical,
and Medical Education
Departments. Talks of
changes in JDA, Kar
Bhawan, Sahakar Bha-
wan and Parivahan
Bhawan are also doing
the rounds.
There has been a de-
mand of changing Col-
lectors in some dis-
tricts at political level.
DoP wants to change
some Collectors due to
their poor perfor-
mance and some offic-
ers due to complaints
against them. The ban
on transfers of Collec-
tors because of the
Prashasan Shehron/
Gaon Ke Sang cam-
paign, will be lifted on
December 31. In such a
situation, nearly two
dozen Collectors are
likely to be changed.
17 officers have been
promoted from RAS to
IAS last month and
these officers will also
be given new posting.
These officers may be
given new responsibili-
ties on January 1.
It was believed that
CM Ashok Gehlot was
busy with a political
agenda and thus, he
wasn’t able to pay much
attention towards ad-
ministration and the
transfer list was linger-
ing on. Now the CM is
not having that high
level of politically busy
schedule, and there-
fore, a long list of trans-
fers is likely to be is-
sued this week.

BIRLA LENDS A PATIENT EAR
TO PUBLIC IN KOTA
Turncoats are no leaders, not
even a fit human being: Maken
10. dream becomes a
goal when the de-
termination of
one’s effort defies
all leaps and
bounds. The glam-
our world, though
glitzy on the outside, is
rough on the inside but
Sukansha Kulshreshtha
has navigated the path
quite early.
Sukansha, a model and
influencer from the land
of Nawabs has been the
face of brands like Tan-
ishq and Vedix and winner
of the title Miss photogen-
ic 2020 shared her journey
as a doctor turned model
in an interview with City
First.
Talking about her jour-
ney initially, Sukansha
said, “I always wanted to
become a fashion icon,
over the years since
then I began to
think it wasn’t
for me.
Thinking
this, I en-
t e r e d
into the medical field to
become a medical profes-
sional. After completion, I
thought of giving model-
ling a try. Very soon I got
the opportunity to work
with several brands like
Tanishq, Vedix, and many
other jewellery brands. In
2020, I was chosen Miss
Millennial Top Model
2020 for the year and also
I won the title of Miss
Photogenic.”
Remembering her inspi-
ration, she said, “I believe,
we don’t need inspiration
from any big personali-
ties, so my mother is my
greatest inspiration, she
is now no more but faced
a lot of adversity in her
life and had to raise a girl
as a single mother.”
One piece of advice
Kulshreshtha mentioned
and said, “This fashion
world has high competi-
tion, which may lead to
stress and even face a lot
of refusals which can
harm their self-esteem.
Do not get trampled by
your competitors and be
ready to face criticism.
Above all, have fun and be
positive!”
