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.

TESDA TM1 REVIEWER FOR NATIONAL ASSESSMENT WRITTEN AND ORAL QUESTIONS WITH A...
CSS_Framework_V3_May 2014
1. Comprehensive
School Safety
A global framework in support of
The Global Alliance for Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience in the Education Sector
and The Worldwide Initiative for Safe Schools,
in preparation for the 3rd U.N. World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction, 2015
2. Purpose
This framework provides a comprehensive approach to reducing
risks from all hazards to the education sector. The past decade has
brought children’s advocates together:
• To promote disaster risk reduction (Hyogo Framework for
Action 2005-2015) throughout the education sector along with
education for sustainable development (International Decade for
Education for Sustainable Development)
• To assure universal access to quality basic education in a safe
environment (Millennium Development Goals, Education for
All, Global Partnership for Education, Education First, Global
Coalition to Prevent Education from Attack).
• To incorporate risk reduction into Millennium Development Goals
for education.
At the core of these child-centered, child-participatory,
and evidence-based efforts is the recognition of children’s
rights to survival and protection as well as to education and
participation.
The purpose of this Comprehensive School Safety Framework
JTUPCSJOHUIFTFFGGPSUTJOUPBDMFBSBOEVOJmFEGPDVTJOPSEFS
for education sector partners to work more effectively, and to
link with similar efforts in all other sectors at the global, regional,
national and local levels.
The CSS framework is intended to advance the goals of the
Worldwide Initiative for Safe Schools and the Global Alliance
for Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience in the Education
Sector, and to promote school safety as a priority area of
post-2015 frameworks for sustainable development, risk
reduction and resilience.
The Goals of
Comprehensive
School Safety
The goals of comprehensive
school safety are:
• To protect learners and education workers from death, injury,
and harm in schools
• To plan for educational continuity in the face of all expected
hazards and threats
• To safeguard education sector investments
• To strengthen risk reduction and resilience through education
The Three Pillars of
Comprehensive School Safety
Comprehensive school safety is addressed by education policy and practices aligned with
disaster management at national, regional, district, and local school site levels.
It rests on three pillars:
1. Safe Learning Facilities
2. School Disaster Management
3. Risk Reduction and Resilience Education
Multi-hazard risk assessment is the foundation for planning for Comprehensive School Safety. Ideally, this should be part of
Educational Management Information Systems at national, subnational, and local levels. It is part of a broader analysis of education
sector policy and management in order to provide the evidence base for planning and action.

4. Three Pillars of Comprehensive School Safety
1. Safe Learning Facilities involves education authorities, planners, architects, engineers, builders, and
school community members in safe site selection, design, construction and maintenance (including safe
and continuous access to the facility). The key responsibilities for both public and private schools are to:
• Select safe school sites and implement disaster-resilient design
and construction to make every new school a safe school.
• *NQMFNFOUQSJPSJUJ[BUJPOTDIFNBGPSSFUSPmUBOESFQMBDFNFOU
(eg. including relocation of unsafe schools).
• Minimize structural, non-structural and infrastructural
risks to make buildings and facilities for survival and evacuation.
• Incorporate access and safety for people with disabilities
in design and construction of school facilities.
• If schools are planned as temporary community shelters, design
them to meet these needs, and be sure to plan for suitable
alternate facilities for educational continuity.
• Ensure that children’s access to schools is free from physical
risks (eg. pedestrian paths, road and river crossings).
• Adapt water and sanitation facilities to potential risks
(eg. rain-fed and lined latrines).
• Implement climate-smart interventions to enhance water, energy
and food security (eg. rainwater harvesting, solar panels,
renewable energy, school gardens).
• 1MBOGPSDPOUJOVPVTNPOJUPSJOH

ongoing facilities maintenance and safety.
2. School Disaster Management is established via national and sub-national education authorities and
local school communities (including children and parents), working in collaboration with their disaster
management counterparts at each jurisdiction, in order to maintain safe learning environments and plan
for educational continuity, conforming to international standards. The key responsibilities are to:
• Establish national and/or sub-national level committee and full-time
focal point(s) leading comprehensive school safety efforts.
• Provide policies, guidance at sub-national and school-site
levels for ongoing site-based assessment and planning, risk
reduction, and response preparedness as part of normal school
management and improvement.
• Develop, train, institutionalize, monitor and evaluate school
DPNNJUUFFT5IFTFTIPVMECFFNQPXFSFEUPMFBEJEFOUJmDBUJPO
and mapping of all hazards inside and outside school and
community and action-planning for ongoing risk reduction
and preparedness activities. Encourage participation of staff,
students, parents and community stakeholders in this work.
• Adapt standard operating procedures as needed, for hazards
with and without warnings, including: drop cover and hold,
building evacuation, evacuation to safe haven, shelter-in-place
BOEMPDLEPXO
BOETBGFGBNJMZSFVOJmDBUJPO
• Engage schools in making early warning and early action
systems meaningful and effective.
• Establish national and sub-national contingency plans, based on
the Interagency Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE)
Minimum Standards (2010), to support educational continuity,
including plans and criteria to limit the temporary use of schools
as temporary shelters.
• Identify alternate locations for temporary learning spaces and
alternate modes of instruction
• Incorporate the needs of pre-school and out-of-school
children, children with disabilities, and both girls and boys.
• Link education sector and disaster management sector,
and public safety policies and plans at each level of social
organization (national, sub-national levels, and local and school-site
level) and establish communication and coordination linkages
across sectors.
• Practice, critically evaluate, and improve on response
preparedness, with regular school-wide and community-linked
TJNVMBUJPOESJMMTEBQUTUBOEBSEPQFSBUJOHQSPDFEVSFTUPTQFDJmD
context of each school.
3. Risk Reduction and Resilience Education should be designed to develop a culture of safety and
resilient communities. Key responsibilities are to:
• Develop consensus-based key messages for reducing
household and community vulnerabilities, and for preparing for
and responding to hazard impacts as a foundation for formal and
non-formal education.
• Engage students and staff in real-life school and community

(and other hazards, where applicable).
• Develop scope and sequence for teaching about critical thinking
for all hazards.
• Infuse risk reduction throughout the curriculum and provide
guidelines for integration of risk reduction and resilience into
carrier subjects.
• Develop quality teaching and learning materials for students and
teachers. Address all dimensions of climate-smart risk reduction
education: disaster mechanisms, key messages for safety and
preparedness, understanding risk drivers and mitigating the
consequences of disasters, building community risk reduction
capacity and a culture of safety and resilience, and learning to live
together.
• Provide teacher training for both teachers and teacher trainees on
risk reduction curriculum materials and methodologies.
• Develop strategies to scale-up teacher involvement for effective
integration of these topics into formal curriculum as well as non-formal
and extra-curricular approaches with local communities.
