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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

★ Rising action: A series of events and complications build on characterization
and conflict, and foreshadowing, suspense, irony, and literary devices get involved.
★ Climax: The solution to the conflict is decided. This is the turning point--and
often most emotional part--of the story. The event may be either an action or
mental decision that the protagonist makes.

★ Resolution: Minor conflicts are wrapped up and there is an indication of
closure or continuance of life for the characters.

nature, which serve as the antagonist.

man-made source or group: society, culture, religion, peers, school,
etc.
★ Man vs. Self: The main character experiences some kind of inner
conflict like a making a difficult decision or dealing with a personal
problem.

next?" It makes the reader or audience uncertain or tense about
the outcome of events.

Verbal Irony: sarcasm; saying the opposite of what is literally meant
Situational Irony: the situation is the opposite of what is expected or

that the characters do not know
