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.

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

2. • A combination of a number of discoveries of electro
magnetic waves, radio waves, the wireless telegraph and
the triode amplifier valve by scientists and technicians from
different countries gave rise to the development of wireless
telegraphy and later to radio broadcasting.
• WWI prompted the industrialization of wireless telegraphy.
In US the radio created a communication environment in
which amateurs could operate freely.
• Radio Broadcasting needed the mass production of receivers
and marketing for it to be commercially viable. WWI

• By mid 1923 as many as 450 stations sprouted across US
• In Europe, public service oriented broadcasting supported by
taxes or license fees rather than advertising oriented
commercial broadcasting found widespread favour.
• Thus as CBS Columbia Broadcasting Station and NBC National
Broadcasting Stations in the US were established as private
stations, the British Government took the initiative to set up
BBC in 1920 as an autonomous public service corporation.

wireless equipment in 1984.
• Since then, numbers have picked up, and as of 2007,
there were more than 16,000 operators in the country.
• Amateur radio operators have played a vital role during
