The document discusses the importance of women's empowerment. It notes that women's literacy improves family health, nutrition, education, and allows women to participate in decision making. The objectives of women's welfare programs are to provide education, vocational training, environmental awareness, and improve employment opportunities and women's status. Essential factors for empowerment are self-confidence, exposure, and independence. Empowering women means making them independent in mind, thought, and rights. The empowerment of women encourages self-reliance, independence, confidence, and participation in socio-political development. Women's empowerment is necessary to improve the future of families, society, and the country, and can reduce poverty.

It also requests an inquiry into the unauthorized interference in temple affairs and removal of historical relics from the area.
1. The National Food Security Bill passed by Parliament aims to provide subsidized foodgrains to approximately two-thirds of India's population.
2. Key aspects of the bill include entitling priority households to 5kg of grains per person per month at subsidized rates, and providing meals to children and maternity benefits to pregnant and lactating mothers.
3. The bill aims to implement the food security program through the existing public distribution system network, but may eventually transition to a modernized biometric-based system. The food subsidy bill for the government is estimated to increase significantly with the implementation of this program.
The document provides an overview of Assam's tourism potential and the need to develop the tourism industry in the state. It notes that Assam is blessed with natural beauty, wildlife, tea gardens, and a rich culture. However, its tourism industry has not been properly developed to attract large numbers of tourists and boost the state's economy. Key points discussed include the various types of tourism that could be promoted, the role of the government in transforming potential into productivity, and examples of initiatives like homestays that could benefit local communities. The document argues that tourism, if properly developed, could drive socio-economic change in Assam.
Assam has been facing an acute power shortage problem due to the vast gap between power demand and supply. The power demand in Assam has increased steeply over the last 3-4 years due to increased economic and development activities. Currently, the average peak demand is 1250 MW against available 700 MW, leaving a shortfall of 550 MW. While the state had planned to meet more demand through hydro power projects dependent on monsoon rains, insufficient rains this year have reduced hydro power generation. The state government has proposed several new thermal and hydro power projects that would require an investment of Rs. 7,996 crore to help meet the projected peak demand of 1752 MW by the end of the 12th plan period.
The document summarizes Assam's economic situation and calls for self-sufficiency. It notes that while Assam once took pride in tea and oil production, both are declining, and the state remains dependent on others for many necessities. Oil production in Assam forms a small portion of India's total. Tea production is also declining. The document calls on Assam to wake up from its slumber and work towards producing more of its own needs, like it does not for potatoes, onions, or fish. It suggests emulating British examples of promoting tea and oil but for other crops. The overall economic message is that Assam needs greater self-sufficiency.
Oil India Limited (OIL) plans to invest Rs 12,000 crore in the North-East region by 2017 for exploration and development activities as the company looks to step up operations. During the 12th Five Year Plan period, OIL has a capital expenditure plan of over Rs 19,000 crore, of which Rs 12,000 crore or 63% is earmarked for the North-East. OIL will invest heavily in the North-East to increase production and reserves as it focuses on growing its business in the region.

OLD ROUTES ANEW -- LOOKING EAST FROM THE NORTH EAST - by Pradyut bordoloibgogoi
The document discusses the need to strengthen transport connectivity between Northeast India and Southeast Asia by reviving old trade routes. It notes that 60 years ago, transport networks in South and Southeast Asia were highly integrated, but the partition of India disrupted these links, isolating the Northeast region. Reviving highways, waterways and rail links through cooperation between countries can help optimize economic returns and regional integration. Specific proposals outlined include improving road, rail and water transport infrastructure to connect India with Bangladesh, Myanmar, China and other Southeast Asian countries to facilitate trade, tourism and economic development. Overcoming challenges like insurgency and illegal trade will also require joint border management among countries.

Specifically, [1] Dutt revealed details from interviews like the number of possible hostages still in buildings, which could help the terrorists. [2] Dutt had a history of revealing sensitive military information during the Kargil War. [3] Live coverage may have revealed details that led to the death of an officer. The author argues journalists should protect victims first by avoiding revealing sensitive information that could aid terrorists.

HijackLoader Evolution: Interactive Process HollowingDonato Onofri
CrowdStrike researchers have identified a HijackLoader (aka IDAT Loader) sample that employs sophisticated evasion techniques to enhance the complexity of the threat. HijackLoader, an increasingly popular tool among adversaries for deploying additional payloads and tooling, continues to evolve as its developers experiment and enhance its capabilities.
In their analysis of a recent HijackLoader sample, CrowdStrike researchers discovered new techniques designed to increase the defense evasion capabilities of the loader. The malware developer used a standard process hollowing technique coupled with an additional trigger that was activated by the parent process writing to a pipe. This new approach, called "Interactive Process Hollowing", has the potential to make defense evasion stealthier.

Think Tank on August 31st, 2012 -A high level advocacy dialogue
Civil society collaboration with Delhi PC&PNDT Cell
Implementation of the Pre-Conception & Pre-Natal Diagnostic Testing Act
Action India organized a Think Tank in the Indian Islamic Center to get a deeper understanding
of the implementation of the PC&PNDT Act and why this act has not been successfully
implemented till now. After the alarming revelation of the further decline of girls in the Census
2011, it became clear that the law has failed to curb the malpractice of sex selective elimination
of the girl child. The Census Commissioner of India, Dr. C. Chandramouli commented that,
“instead of looking at each State as a whole, there is a need to look into the child sex ratio of
villages at the block level, also, the need of the hour is to develop a holistic approach to plan
action on child sex ratio and sex ratio in general. He said, “the increase in sex ratio does not mean
that there is an improvement in the status of women and her health.”
Dr. Syeda Hameed, a member of the Planning Commission also stated that, “the declining child
sex ratio is the focus in the 12th
Five year plan and has been given the utmost importance. The
strategy for implementation was to work through the Panchayati Raj System at the village level,
block and district level. Dr Hameed has been a friend of the women’s movement for the last 2
decades and we are hopeful that her words will lead to action.
The Principal Secretary-Delhi, Ministry of Health confirmed, that the “State is committed to the
issue of declining child sex ratio and would like to collaborate with civil society organizations
who are known to have worked in a sustained manner since the Census 2001 brought to light the
steep decline in the birth of girls 0-6 yrs, and shocked the nation.”
Dr. Shelley Kamra of the PC&PNDT Cell Delhi State had shown the greatest enthusiasm to
work in collaboration with CSOs to join hands with the state to address the issue. A participant
appreciated the positive attitude of the government and emphasized the need to institutionalize
the protocols in order to sustain the efforts so that the collaboration did not collapse after there
is a change of guard.
Eminent representatives of the civil society as panelists and chaired the meeting were Ms Ena
Singh (UNFPA), Dr Imrana Qadeer (Professor Emeritus JNU), Akhila Sivadas (CFAR), Pamela
Phillipose (Women Feature Service), Dr. Suman Parashar (Consultant-Census Commission),
Dipali Sharma (Senior Manager, ActionAid, Delhi) Rizwan Parvez (CFAR, Rajasthan), Meera
(ActionAid India Partner, M.P.), Sulekha Singh (Project Coordinator, Action India, Delhi), Smita
Khanijow (Programme Manager, ActionAid India, Delhi), Dr. Shalley Kamra (State Program
Officer, PC&PNDT), Health & Family Welfare, Delhi, Dr Anshu Prakash (Health Secretary, Delhi
State Supervisory Board), Arti Dhar, Journalist (The Hindu), Tanveer Kazi (Regional Manager,

Action India is an NGO member of the State Supervisory Committee, headed by State Minister
of Health. As member of the East District Appropriate Authorities, we are aware of the lack
of seriousness of the CDMO, Nodal Officer etc. all of whom were the implementing agency of
the PC&PNDT under the supervision of the District Commissioner Revenue. The Think Tank
provides the possibility of a collaboration for effective implementation of the PC&PNDT Act.
