characters, mythical beasts, gods, advanced technology, and fantastic
locations. While their validity is questionable, their existence shows the
incredible fascination that we, as humans, have for these stories. Indian
mythology contains a vast and ancient array of tales, which are
stimulating, entertaining, and have a moral lesson behind them.

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

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.

8. Karna as a Subaltern
• Downstream, Adhiratha was sitting on a rock, hoping to catch a fish for the midday meal. He was a
gentleman, a charioteer by trade, and his wife Radha was a gentle and good woman. They were
often sad, however, for they were unable to have children. Adhiratha cast the line out over the river
and sighed again, he waded out into the current and caught hold of the basket. His surprise knew
no bounds when he discovered the sleeping newborn baby inside the boat. When Radha saw the
tiny baby lying peacefully asleep, she was overjoyed and said to her husband, “Swamy, it seems
that our prayers have been answered. We will keep this baby and bring him up as our own”. He
replied I agree with you. He is a gift from God in answer to our prayers. In fact, he himself is
Godlike with these divine earrings and armor. After consultation with the Brahmins, he was named
Vasushena since he was wearing a Vasu He also came to be known as Radheya or the son of
Radha, and more famously as Karna. Radheya was outgrowing like every other young boy of his
age in the village.
9. Karna as Subaltern
• special features and personality, anybody could see that the boy did not quite belong to the
category of ordinary village lads. Because of his strength and skills at any kind of game, nobody
would mess up with him and he became a natural leader in the village. Although he soon lose
interest in the games that other boys played, while at home he would shape beautiful clay toys.
Outside the home he would be interested in wrestling or cut stout branches of trees, shaping them
into bows and arrows and shooting them at imaginary targets. Seeing his son in such getup
Adhiratha decided to provide him a formal education. Adhiratha was particularly tense, as he
recalled how Dronacharya had initially refused to do anything with a Suta Putra, and how he had to
seek the intervention of King Dhritarashtra himself. Even after the royal intercession, Guru
Dronacharya had only agreed to impart basic education and training in arms to his son. In due
course both father and son entered the hut of Guru Dronacharya and touched his feet with due
reverence. Karna was lodged in the section reserved for ordinary pupils and away from the section
reserved for princes and other high caste students.
10. Karna as a Subaltern
• After a few days when Adhiratha visited his son in his lodgings, he found him tense and
somewhat angry as well. Before entering the room, he had assured him that his son was
very bright and a quick learner. But on entering the room he found him in a different
frame of mind which made him apprehensive. On being asked, Karna started asking all
sorts of questions with his father. He asked, “Baba is it a crime to be a Suta-Putra? Why
do scriptures sanction this class-based discrimination? Why the princes and other so-
called upper-class students should be given better food, better lodgings, and better
education as compared to students like me, who seem to have an inborn stigma attached
to their names? Where does my fault lie in all this?”
11. Adhiratha’s answer to Karna
• To console Karna Adhiratha sensibly replied, “My dear son, during your education you
will surely study scriptures and find out for yourself that they don’t sanction any kind of
discrimination. These divisions are all manmade and tools used by those people who
wield power to subjugate those who are weak and less fortunate. Let me assure you, my
son, being a Suta is not a crime. We earn our living by fair means and struggle hard to
make both ends meet. Be assured there is no dishonor involved in all this. But you and I
are not able to change the system. My advice to you is that you can earn recognition by
hard work and dedication and outshine everyone with your superior capabilities. For that,
you must work very hard and convert your anger into the will to overcome the handicap
of discrimination. I am sure one day you would achieve such heights as are aspired for
only by the best of men”
12. Subaltern
Theory
The term Subaltern is
a term Spivak
borrows from the
Italian Marxist
Antonio Gramsci to
signify oppressed
class.
Spivak’s well known
argument is that the
subaltern cannot
speak for him/herself
because of the very
structure of colonial
power prevents the
speaking.
She argues that the
work of intellectuals
is to visible the
position of the
marginalised the
subaltern must be
“Speak for”.
The project Subaltern
was launched in 1982
under the leadership
of Ranjit Guha.
13. Subaltern
Theory
This project argued that traditional
historiography only celebrated the actions
of elite.
Thus the “Freedom Struggle” in traditional
history, was represented as the story of the
Actions as selected leaders like Gandhi,
Nehru and Tilak.
It ignored the peasant and tribal rebellions
that preceded the formation of the Indian
National Congress.
14. Subaltern Theory
• By the term ‘subaltern’ conventionally denotes an
inferior military rank, it is more generally used as
‘a name for the general attribute of subordination
in South Asian society’ often expressed in terms
of caste and gender as it is being acquired. at birth
and is non-changeable. The term ‘Subaltern’ was
coined by Ranjit Guha and later it was adopted by
Marxist Antonio Gramsci and further it was
discussed by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak in her
essay ‘Can the Subaltern Speak?’ People consider
Subaltern as the unrepresented group of people in
the society, people of inferior race, not fit for
making any real contribution to the society and
therefore they cannot speak, but subaltern can
speak but others do not have the patience to listen
to them.
