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.

Illustration

be reimbursed from B’s property
A minor studying at Cambridge was supplied with clothing, including eleven
waist-wats. He already had sufficient clothing with him. It was held that the
waist-wats were not necessary articles and so he was not liable to pay for them.
6. Section 69
“Reimbursement of money paid, in which he is interested”
Essentials:
There must be a person who is bound to make a payment by law.
The person paying must himself not be bound to pay. When he is
jointly liable to pay, payment by him would not give him the right to

payment being made and interest should exist at the time of
payment.

interest
A and B have been fined jointly Rs500 for selling adulterated ghee. A alone pays the
amount of fine in good faith, A cannot later claim contribution from B under Section 69.
Notice that although B was bound by law to pay and A has paid B’s share in good faith,
yet A cannot recover as he himself was bound to make the payment, being jointly liable
with B and was not simply interested in making the payment.
7. Section 70

• Delivers anything to him non-gratuitously
• Latter is bound to make compensation or restore the thing so

• The person for whom the act is done must enjoy the benefit of it.
Illustration
A, a tradesman, leaves goods at B’s house by mistake. B treats the goods his
own. He is bound to pay for them
A saves B’s property from fire. A is not entitled to compensation from B, if the
circumstances show that he intended to act gratuitously.
8. Section 71:

• Entitled to retain the goods until he receives the
lawful charges or compensation for retaining
the goods and taking care of them.

10. Section 72:
“Liabilities of a person to whom money is paid or thing
delivered by mistake or under coercion”
A person to whom money has been paid, or anything delivered
by mistake or under coercion, must repay or return it.

B not knowing it also pays to C. C is bound to repay the
amount to B.
•A railway co. refuses to deliver certain goods to the
consignee, except upon the payment of illegal charge for
carriage. The consignee pays the sum charged in order to
obtain the goods. He is entitled to receive the excessive
