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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

WHAT IS
SATIRE?
2. 1
“Yes certainly, will you help me carry this? It is very
heavy and my ant hill is still a few trees away,” said
the ant.“Nah, first you have to come and play with
me and then I will help you with this,” said Mr
Grasshopper. “Why are you working so hard
anyway? Autumn is a beautiful season and you
should enjoy it now,”the grasshopper said.
Miss Ant was concerned and replied, “Mr
Grasshopper, you should start collecting food for
the winters from now on. Very soon it will be very
cold.You will not be able to go out and there will be
no food to eat.”
“Never mind, I will go out anyway and find food
when I am hungry. This is the time to enjoy, and
have fun. It’s party time!”said the silly grasshopper.
Miss Ant shook her head, picked up the grain of rice
and went on.
Finally, winter arrived and it was very cold. The ants
did not dare to come out. However, they had
sufficient food to eat and thus were happy and
kept themselves warm. Mr Grasshopper on the
other hand was cold and hungry. As he did not
store any food for the winter, he had to go out in
the biting cold, and hardly managed to get any
food. He soon became very hungry and weak.
Mr Grasshopper realized his mistake. “I wish I had
listened to the ant. At least I would have had some
food to eat now,” said Mr Grasshopper sadly, and
went out to search for food.
It was the time of the year when winter was
approaching and the beautiful season of autumn
was coming to an end. All the animals and insects
were working extremely hard to gather food and
store it for the winters. They knew that in the
winters, it would get dark very soon and it would
also be too cold to go out and get food.
So, everyone in the forest was working very hard,
except for Mr Grasshopper. He was very fond of
autumn—it was his favourite season. Throughout
the year, he waited for autumn to come, so he
wanted to enjoy it to the fullest. The trees looked
extremely pretty, filled with orange, yellow and red
leaves. With the pleasant breeze, the leaves fell
from the trees and covered the ground, creating a
beautiful sight.
All day long, Mr Grasshopper spent his time playing
and singing, jumping from one fallen leaf to
another. He loved the way the leaves wavered
when he landed on them and the way they
bounced, when he jumped from them. “Life is
exciting and beautiful, I want to have fun and play
forever,” sang Mr Grasshopper, as he hopped from
one tree to another.
Just then, Miss Ant was passing by, carrying a huge
grain of rice all by herself. She was tired and stopped
for a while. “Oh God, this is so heavy, I should have
askedmybrothertohelpmewiththis,”mutteredMiss
Ant. Mr Grasshopper heard Miss Ant complaining
and said,“Do you need any help with the rice?”

4. Listening to stories before you go to bed can have an emotional, cognitive and phys-
ical effect on you.
The act of listening to a story can create a feeling of safety within you, making you
less vulnerable to bad dreams and restless sleep. After an active day of running
around, you need a wind-down period after dinner to help settle you into a peaceful
sleep. The window of time after you change into your pyjamas and brush your teeth
and before you doze off is perfect for bedtime stories. It helps settle your mind and
destress from the day's activities.
Physically, this window of time is also important.You tend to become energetic after
dinner and can often feel restless. For older children, your minds are may be else-
where, thinking about school the next day or pending tasks. Regardless of age,
listening to or reading a story before going to bed smoothens the transition be-
tween feeling adrenaline-charged and falling into a comfortable sleep.
Stories are also a wonderful way to understand issues you may face – be it socially,
physically or emotionally. Stories have always been the perfect way to introduce
subjects which are otherwise uncomfortable to directly talk to others about.

So, cartoons
are satire?
Satiremaybedefinedasagenreofliterature.Afeatureofsatireis
the strong dramatic use of emotions and words to highlight the
follies and foibles of humanity, society or an individual.
Thefourelementsofsatireare:
Reversal – Satire uses reversal to present the opposite of the
normal order. Reversal can focus on the order of events, or the
hierarchical order.
Parody–Toimitatethetechniquesand/orstyleofsomeperson,
place,orthinginordertoridiculetheoriginal.Butitisrequiredto
have an original frame of reference for the reader or the audi-
ence to understand the parody.
Exaggeration – To enlarge, increase or represent something
beyond normal bounds so that it becomes ridiculous and its
faults can be seen. Caricature is the exaggeration of a physical
feature or trait. Cartoons are an example of this.
Incongruity – To present things that are out of place or are
absurd in relation to its surroundings. Particular techniques
include oxymoron, metaphor and irony.
DifferentTypesofSatire:
Roman Satire - The Roman writers Horace (Horatian Satire) and
Juvenal(JuvenalianSatire)bytheirpracticehaveleftanindelible
mark on formal satirical verse writing. Through their writings,
they devised loosely defined rules of satire. Roman satire is of
two types – Comical satire and tragical satire
Menippean Satire - Another type of satire is Menippean satire
which is usually in the form of prose with its central focus on
mental attitudes and not individuals or entities. It is named after
the Greek parodist Menippus. His works have influenced other
early Greek and Roman writers.

What is
the Speed
of Light?
Mathematically, light travels at the speed of
300000000 meters per second in vacuum. It is a con-
stant quantity which remains the same throughout
the reaches of humans.
This constant attribute, though changes when the
medium changes. In vacuum, there is no obstacle for
the light waves and hence, it travels unobstructed.
Let us now analyze the difference in the speed of light
as the medium in which it travels changes:
Speed of Light -
Vacuum: 3 x100000000 meters per second.
Water: 2.26 x100000000 meters per second.
Air: 2.9 x100000000 meters per second.
Glass: 1.9 x100000000 meters per second.
As opposed to what is written above that the speed
of light is constant throughout, why do we see such
discrepancy in the speeds while traveling through
different mediums then?
Light has a dual nature. It means light behaves as
particle as well as waves. Hence, it has the properties
of waves as well as particles. Due to this, when light
travels through vacuum, it has no obstructions on the
way. Where as when it travels through any medium,
such as water, the atoms and molecules pose as a
hindrance for light to travel at its constant speed, gets
absorbed and re-emitted and hence, its speed lowers.
Medium or no medium, speed of light still leads the
charts for being the fastest!
Q: Which sport does a grasshopper like?
A: Cricket
Q: What do you call a 100 year old ant?
A: Ant-ique!
Q: What do you call two bugs
that live on the moon?
A:Luna ticks!

Akbar the Great was born on 14 October 1542, at the Rajput Fortress of Umerkot
in Sindh. He was the son of Humayun and his wife Hamida Banu Begum. Akbar was
born at a time when his parents were in exile.
Akbar spent his entire childhood learning how to fight and hunt. He had no interest
in learning how to read and write. However, Akbar was the only Mughal Emperor
who was illiterate and still had a penchant for knowledge.
Akbar was made king at the age of 13, after the death of his father. Akbar was
with Bairam Khan at the time of his father’s passing and Bairam was made Regent,
as Akbar was too young. On many occasions Bairam led campaigns on Akbar’s
behalf to expand the kingdom.

8. Hemu, the Hindu minister of an Afghan Prince, Adil Shah, was waiting for a chance
to defeat Akbar. Hemu attacked the kingdom of Delhi and emerged victorious,
crowning himself ruler of Delhi.
Akbar launched a scathing attack in the Second Battle of Panipat. The two armies
fought valiantly and it seemed as the Moghals were fighting a losing battle until an
arrow hit Hemu’s eye and he fainted. Hemu’s men thought that he was dead and
put down their weapons, accepting defeat. Akbar became king again.
As Akbar grew older, he won many more battles and added more regions to his
kingdom, stretching from the Indo-Ganges Basin to Kashmir and Afghanistan, all
the way down to Bengal in the east and part of Deccan in the south.
Although Akbar was a young king, he was a shrewd and organised. He got rid of all
his ministers who he felt were too ambitious and were looking to covet his posi-
tion. He removed restrictions on religions and allowed his people to practice the
religion of their choice, without having to fear for their life.
Akbar was fair to his people and abolished unfair taxes on non-Muslims. He also
played an important role in bringing in social reforms such as the abolishment of
child marriage, permission for widows to re-marry and the removal of bans to
build Hindu temples.
Although illiterate, Akbar was surrounded by scholars such as Birbal, Abul Fazl
and Tansen who were all part of the Nine Gems or Navaratnas. Akbar took keen
interest in religion, music, painting, poetry and philosophy.
He had a huge collecting of books and manuscripts and was also the owner of a
number of artworks from across the region. His biggest accomplishment however,
lay in architecture. He built great structures like the Jama Masjid that stands tall
even today. He even built a palace for his wife close to the Hawa Mahal.
9. It is difficult for an insect to sneeze or cough as insects do not have noses.
They breathe through tiny holes in their body called spiracles. These holes or spiracles are
connected to tubes or tracheae that again branch out into smaller tubes.These are connect-
ed to all tissues in the insect body. Oxygen enters the spiracles and flows down through the
tracheae and ends up in a liquid that is located at the bottom of each tube. This liquid helps
the oxygen to dissolve. The liquid moves into other cells of an insect’s body to provide
oxygen to other parts.
Insects can take in air or oxygen through their mouth as well but it doesn’t do much because
insects do not have lungs. But some insects breathe in air through their mouths to increase
their body volume. Some insects like the june beetle, luber grasshopper or the Madagascar
hissing cockroach make hissing noise for communication by forcing air out of their spiracles.
There are insects that may cough up or regurgitate.This means they might spit out materials
from their gut but it is mainly to distract predators or a defensive action.

Pondering
Corner
Akbar fathered three sons,
Jahangir, Murad and Daniyal.
Jahangir was the only surviv-
ing son as the other two died
very young. Jahangir and
Akbar did not share a very
good relationship and were at
constant logger-heads with
each other.
10. Facts about Grasshoppers
A single grasshopper can eat half its body weight in plants per day.
There are around 11,000 known species of grasshopper found around the world.
The grasshopper can jump as far as it does because its hind legs act like miniature catapults.
Some species of grasshopper make noises by either rubbing their back legs against the forewings
or body, or by snapping their wings when flying.

the Story...
All the grasshoppers gathered one afternoon to have a little contest. They
wanted to know which one of them could jump the furthest. The oldest of
the grasshoppers was keeping score, with a close eye on all the excited
young ones. The first grasshopper stood at the starting line, bent its knees
and pushed itself forward...
