Srinagar /sriˈnɑːɡər/ (Urdu: سری نگر) is the summer capital of the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. It is situated in the centre of the Kashmir Valley on the banks of the Jhelum River and is surrounded by five districts. In the north it is flanked by Kargil and Ganderbal in the South by Pulwama,in the north-west by Budgam. The capital city of Srinagar,is located 1585 metres above sea level. The city is famous for its gardens, lakes and houseboats. It is also known for traditional Kashmiri handicrafts and dried fruits.
Origin of names :
Folk etymology draws the city name from two Sanskrit words: śrī ("glory", "prosperity", also: a name for the goddess Lakshmi) and nagar, "city", which would make "City of Lakshmi" (or, "City of Prosperity").
However, the earliest records mention the name as siri-nagar which in turn is a local transformation of the original Sanskrit name sūrya-nagar, meaning "City of Sun" (or, of sun god). This also is reflected in the local pronunciation srinagar (and not śrīnagar)

Plants a collaboration of art and nature - maharashtra todaymarathitadkanewsnews
Plants are mainly multicellular organisms, predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae. Historically, plants were treated as one of two kingdoms including all living things that were not animals, and all algae and fungi were treated as plants.
However, all current definitions of Plantae exclude the fungi and some algae, as well as the prokaryotes (the archaea and bacteria). By one definition, plants form the clade Viridiplantae (Latin name for "green plants"), a group that includes the flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms, ferns and their allies, hornworts, liverworts, mosses, and the green algae, but excludes the red and brown algae

The Comparison between the Modern Science of Plants and Kalidasa’s Plantsijtsrd
According to ancient Indian seers plants are living beings. Only the conscience is internal or dormant. However, the ancient scholars of India studied the plants mainly for the medicinal purposes. Starting from Rgveda to modern age of 21st century plants have been analysed from the point of view of the taxonomy, classification and usage. As the names of plants mentioned in the ancient scriptures, are recorded mostly in the sonnets or verses. In modern days plants are studied from the angle of the importance and nature of plants products. The living substance in the plants is called protoplasm, through which the various characteristics of plants are registered. The plants manufacture their colouring agent itself. These are called pigments. plants also have Latex which is the juice of the plants. Plants are classified as Angiosperm and Gymnosperm. That group of plant is called angiosperm whose flowers hold the reproductive parts of the plants. The smallest flower in the family of angiosperm is Lemna. If the plant has one seed leaf it is called Monocots otherwise the two or more seed leaf plant is called Dicots The plants mentioned in Sanskrit works are also the subjects of modern science. The only difference being the botanical name of the plant along with the specie mentioned in the books of science. The tree Asoka is called Asoka in English and Saraca Asoca in Botany. It is a tall tree with flowers of red and orange colour and nice fragrance. Kalidasa very aptly mentions the special treatment for blossoming of flowers on the tree. De candolle in 1883 divided in plants, into six groups where Mango is said to be cultivated for over 4000 years. Mango is called Mangifera Indica. In Botany. Kalidasa also mentions the different varieties of Mango. Amra, Sahakara, Chuta Candana is Santalum Album, as it known in Botany. The sandal wood oil. The oil is used in the oriental countries as Perfume as well as medicine. It In Kalidasa’s works the paste of wood is used as a body ointment to get ritz of the sunheat Sugarcane in English, is known as SACCHARUM OFFICINARUM. According to the poet also the sugarcane becomes readily for consumption in the winter. It is sweet and is used for making jaggery. Among the varieties ‘Saliksu’ in the best one. It gives deep shade. Jambu is known as Jambolan or Java plum and Indian black berry in English whereas the botanical name is SYZYGIUM CUMNII. Kalidasa says the medicinal potentialities of the leaves whose sap diluted in water can cure the after effect of vomiting.

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.

16. FACTS
• Of the sixty plants recently identified as critically
endangered, and vulnerable in the state by the
ministry of environment and forest, city botanists
said that 30 are found and around Pune.
• Botanists say that a majority of these
varieties are herbs and endemic confined to a
specific habitat or locality.
• Unfortunately, despite being part of flora,
these plants are neglected, since they are of
no particular use to mankind.
17. •Apart from the Pune University (411 acres) most of
the public parks in Pune are really small .
•The wildest and most beautiful areas in Pune have
been the preserve of the Army – the College of
Military Engineering (4000 acres) and the National
Defense Academy (5000 acres) and they are out of
bounds for the general public.
•Alas the city of Pune – a major auto-hub and Detroit
of India, IT and Bio-technology mega centre, the
Oxford of the East still lacks a Botanical Gardens.
18. GOVERNMENT PROJECTS
• The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC), & the forest
development corporation are developing an oxygen park
.The project has come up at a cost of Rs 2 crore, which the
PMC had set aside in its 2010-11 budget
• Besides the oxygen park, the PMC has enmarked Rs 50 lakh
for various other projects
•Besides, another Rs 50 lakh has been allocated for planting
indigenous trees on government and semi-government land
as well as on forest land.
• A Rs 40-lakh lake park has also been proposed in a 10-acre
stone quarry near Vetal Tekdi.
19. RECOMMENDATIONS
We should create general awareness
about the rare plants.
We should plant the trees in our
surroundings.
Schools should organize trips and
activities related to the rare trees .
We should organize tree plantation
campaigns.
