Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

6. ■ A student finds they do not have sufficient time to answer an assignment properly and decides
to ‘borrow’ (i.e. copy) some words or sections from a book, website or colleague. This is
plagiarism.
■ A student lacking confidence in their English skills believes that whatever they write will never
be as good as the material in their course book or from other sources. They decide it is better to
copy it out than try to write an answer in their own words. This is plagiarism.
■ A student gets a friend or family member to answer an assignment question for them because
they have expertise in this area and so will get better marks than if the student tries to do it
themselves. This is still plagiarism, but it is also intentional fraud.
■ A student comes across the ‘right answer’ to part of their assignment on a website, and cuts and
pastes this into their assignment. This is intentional plagiarism.
■ A student doesn’t quite understand what they have to do to answer one of their assignment
questions but has found the relevant section in their course book. They copy out the section but
change a few of the connecting words, change the order of a couple of sentences and
add in another couple of examples to make it their own work. This is plagiarism.
Poor academic practice – some examples
7. The Department of Information Science at City has excellent
communication at many levels, individually, through research groups and at
the departmental level.
Rhind (2002, p 1) argues that "we need to establish good communication at
the individual, research group and departmental level".
It has been argued that Information Science is a subject area that covers a number of different
domains; therefore excellent communication is needed over a number of levels - at the individual
level, within research groupings and at a departmental level (Rhind, 2002).
Referencing Examples
The following is taken directly from an editorial by David Rhind in the Journal of
Information Science (Rhind 2002, p.1):
Information Science is an inter-discipline. The corollary of that is that we need to
establish good communication at the individual, research group and departmental
level with specialists in other disciplines. This is a strong feature of Information
Science at City, especially in health, pharmaceutical, legal and geographic sectors.
Rhind (2002) states we need to establish good "communication at the individual,
research group and departmental level".

9. Turnitin
■Checks students' work for improper citation or potential
plagiarism by comparing it against a huge text comparison
database.
■All major pieces of written work will be checked for plagiarism
using Turnitin
■A random selection of additional pieces of written work will be
checked for plagiarism through Turnitin.
■These are then further analysed by both professional and
academic staff to confirm potential cases of plagiarism
Please note: Students don’t have access to turnitin,
so it is important to cite and reference correctly
