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.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

3. Technology is defined as a systematic
development of methods, machines or
processes that help in the achievement of
a given objective.
The Individuals with Disabilities Education
Act (U.S.A) amendments of 1997 defined
that term “Assistive technology” as “any
item, piece of equipment or product
system that is used to increase, maintain
or improve the functional capabilities of
the individuals with disabilities.”
4. Adaptive Technology: adaptive technology is
specifically designed for people with disabilities
and would seldom be used by a non-disabled
person
Assistive Technology: is a general term referring
to any type of technology, device, or tool that
assists an individual in performing a function
that they would otherwise not be able to
perform.
i.e assistive technology is any object or system
that helps people with disabilities
5. Assistive technology helps people who have
difficulty speaking, typing, writing,
remembering, pointing, seeing, hearing,
learning, walking, and many other things.
Examples of assistive technologies are mobility
devices such as wheelchairs and walkers that
help people who are unable to walk on their
own.
Types of A.T : It can be mainly divided into three
types based on level of technology
Low tech/ no tech, Mid tech, High tech
6. Low tech/ no tech: does not involve the use
of batteries or any technology
Ex: flash cards, static models, grippers
Mid Tech: Mid tech involves usage of battery
but no processing involved
Ex: talking alarm, talking watch, talking
calculator
High Tech: High Tech involves devices
involving batteries, processing involvement
Ex. Computers, screen readers, Tabs

10. For creating an Impact –
Improve functional independence
circumventing environmental barriers,
maximize personal independence, and increase
activity participation
Provide greater opportunity for social
participation education and integration,
including institutions in higher education and
the workforce
The impact can be studied by implementing AT
in specific life roles for functioning
