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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

4. Team A
oA 21- year old female working in a rural school suddenly began to
pass profuse watery stools almost continuously.
oShe soon started to vomit, her general condition declined abruptly,
and she was rushed to the general hospital.
oOn admission she was cyanotic, skin turgor was poor, blood pressure
was 70/50 mm Hg and her pulse was rapid and weak.
oThe doctor on duty diagnosed cholera .
5. Team A
• Which type of lipid is a receptor for cholera toxin in the intestine?
A. Ganglioside
B. Cerebroside
C. Phospholipid
D. Lipoprotein
E. Cholesterol
8. • Cholera is a toxin-mediated disease.
• Its characteristic watery diarrhea is
due to the action of cholera toxin, a
potent protein elaborated by the
organism after it colonizes the small
intestine.
• The cholera toxin binds to GM1
ganglioside, a glycolipid on the
surface of epithelial cells that serves
as the toxin receptor.
10. Team B
A 6-year-old boy is seen by a pediatrician because his parents are
concerned about his aggressive behavior, hyperactivity, and a loss of
language skills.
He also has recently become increasingly unsteady on his feet and has
experienced a recent seizure.
Slight facial feature coarsening is noted.
He has been diagnosed with Hurler disease.
11. Team B
• In which of the following processes is this child most likely to have a
disorder?
A. Degradation of Cerebrosides
B. Impaired glycolysis
C. Galactose metabolism
D. Degradation of glycosaminoglycans
E. Cholesterol metabolism
14. Mucopolysaccharidoses
• Glycosaminoglycans are degraded by lysosomal hydrolases.
• A deficiency of one of the hydrolases results in
Mucopolysaccharidoses.
• These are hereditary disorders in which the glycosaminoglycans
accumulate in tissues, causing symptoms such as skeletal and extra
cellular matrix deformities, and mental retardation.
16. Team C
• A 3-month-old girl is brought to the pediatrician due to fussiness and
lethargy.
• According to the parents, the baby was just fine until the mother
needed to return to work, and the baby was being switched from
breast milk to baby foods, formula, and fruit juices.
• At that time, the child cried while feeding, sometimes vomited, and
had been lethargic.
• The baby’s appetite seemed to have worsened.
• The parents thought that if only formula was used, the baby was
better.
17. Team C
• Which possible enzyme defect might lead to this case presentation?
A. Galactokinase
B. Fructokinase
C. Aldolase
D. Hexokinase
E. Glucokinase
20. ‘Hereditary fructose Intolerance’
• The child is most probably suffering from ‘Hereditary fructose
Intolerance’.
• The onset of symptoms after ingestion of fructose or fructose
containing diet (fruit juices in the given case) is a sign of hereditary
fructose Intolerance.
• Hereditary fructose intolerance is caused by mutation in the gene
encoding Aldolase B enzyme.
• These patients are healthy and asymptomatic until fructose or
sucrose (table sugar) is ingested (usually from fruit, sweetened cereal,
or sucrose-containing formula).
40. Team B
The child has presented with
progressive mental retardation and
blindness.
Ophthalmological examination
reveals –Pale macula with cherry red
spot
44. Team C
The patient has developed
Jaundice after treatment with
Primaquine-an antimalarial drug.
45.
46. Answer
• It’s a case of Glucose-6-P dehydrogenase deficiency.
• The patients deficient in this enzyme present with hemolytic anemia,
jaundice, or hematuria on exposure to specific analgesics, antibiotics
or antimalarials(3As).
53. Team B
A 25- year-old female reports to medical OPD. Her lab report shows :
▪ Fasting Blood glucose– 80 mg/dL
▪ Urinary Glucose– Negative
▪ Paper chromatography shows excess of Urinary Xylulose
▪ Urinary Bial’s test-Positive
57. Team C
• The Laboratory investigation report of a 23-year-old male shows the
following:
• Fasting blood glucose- 55 mg/dl (low)
• Fasting ketone body level-Low
• Muscle biopsy reveals- Lipid vacuoles
75. Team A
• Hypothyroidism is caused due to:
• After subtotal Thyroidectomy
• Postpartum thyroiditis
• Excess release of TSH
• Diseases of thyroid itself
