In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

4,900 Crores Project!
The Seemanchal region in Bihar to be
given on lease as the center has taken
up a project to connect the Kosi &
Mechi River, this project is worth 4,900
crores
Kosi and Nechi are known to be the
second-best interlinking project in the
entire country. Ken Batwa was one
of the best one’s in Madhya Pradesh
earlier.
What is the intention of
this project?
The main motto behind this project is
to get saved from floods and difficulty
in the entire region and it is focused
on having a green revolution in
Seemanchal.
Apart from this, the intention of this
project is to provide better irrigation
facilities to lakhs of acres of land
in and around the areas of Bihar in
places such as Araria, Kishanganj,
and Purnia.
The Water Resource Department

what is surplus by providing
to what is the deficit. This
practice would improve the
irrigational facilities.
This project is capable of
getting a national project
status, said, experts. The
state leadership to focus on

revolution project because it
does not want to cause any
disturbance to any part of the
land where the population
resides or in the forest areas.

for this project is within 1400
hectares and it is not close
to any wildlife sanctuary or
national parks.
All in all, if you look at the
benefits of this project it is
balancing surplus and deficit
by sending water from Kosi to
Mechi, it is not causing harm
to any other part of lands and
finally, it is a green revolution
project and at the same time,
it is working on improving
irrigational facilities.

Odisha, the land of Lord Jagannath is synonymous with
the ancient art form, Pattachitra. One of the many art
forms to have survived over thousand years, Pattachitra
can virtually act like a historical chronicle of our
country through time.
9 UNKNOWN FACTS ABOUT
PATTACHITRA ART
INDIAN DIASPORA FINE ART
15. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
1. A single
Pattachitra
painting can
even take
months to
complete.
A single Pattachitra
painting takes at least
five to 15 days, while
some even taking months
to complete. The timing
to carve one Pattachitra
painting depends upon
the level of intricacy and
size of the paintings.
However, it takes years of
practice, dedication and
skill for an artisan to
carve a flawless and
magnificent piece.
2. Original
Pattachitra
paintings are
made from
100% natural
materials.
A lot goes into preserving
the original appeal of this
art form, and the chitrakars
of Odisha seemed to have
mastered that art. What
gives Pattachitra an edge
over other art forms is the
fact that the colours used
are 100% natural and are
prepared by the chitrakars
using ancient methods.
Simple and rustic in
appearance, you will be
surprised to know that
Pattachitra paintings
require immense patience,
intense hard work and
skilled craftsmanship. Let’s
share some interesting bits
of information about the art
that are as mind blowing
as the masterpieces the
art has given us.
While white is made using
conch shells, a mineral colour
named hingula is used as red
colour and a stone named
harikala is used for yellow.
3. Pattachitra
paintings are not
just restricted to
cloth and canvas.
The creativity of Pattachitra
artists is not just limited
to canvas and cloth. They
celebrate the art form by
painting murals on the outer
walls of their houses. These
paintings depict mythological
scenes from the Panchatantra,
the Puranas, the Ramayana
and the Mahabharata.
4.Pattachitra art is
believed to be the
illustrated story
books of the olden
days.
The main themes of Pattachitra
paintings have always been
inspired by Lord Jagannath
and the Vaishnava sect.
Many Pattachitra paintings
are amazing representations
of stories of Lord Jagannath
and Radha-Krishna, the
ten incarnations of Vishnu,
episodes from the Ramayana,
the Mahabharata and many
more. So, one can imagine
that much before Amar

INDIAN DIASPORA FINE ART
Chitra Katha, mothers were reading
out stories to their children from
Pattachitra paintings.
5. The best Pattchitra
art work can be fund in
the Raghurajpur village
of Odisha.
Pattachitra paintings have an uncanny
resemblance to the old murals
and paintings done on the wall of
religious centres in ancient Odisha.
While Pattachitra art is famous all
over Odisha, if you want to find
the best work then head straight to
Raghurajpur. Deeply driven the love
and passion for the art, Pattachitra
artists from this village have not just
kept this art form alive through ages,
but have also earned the status of
heritage village for the wide and
unique range of crafts practised there.
6. Pattachitra paintings
are known for their floral
borders.
Pattachitra is a disciplined form of art with
set rules and restrictions. A floral border
is a must in Pattachitra paintings, and so
is the use of natural colours, restricting
them to a single tone. This creates a
distinct look and feel that is typical to
Pattachitra and cannot be replicated!
Simple and
rustic in
appearance, you
will be surprised
to know that
Pattachitra
paintings
require immense
patience,
intense hard
work and skilled
craftsmanship.
17. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
7. Pattachitra art usually
runs in the family;
Generally, Pattachitra art is practised
by the entire family of chitrakars.
While the women prepare the glue,
the canvas and help out in filling the
borders, the master painter, usually a
male, draws the initial sketch and gives
the final touches to the painting.
8. Over time, Pattachitra
art gave birth to
the Puri school of
painting.
Pattachitra has largely remained
uninfluenced by the other schools of
Indian paintings, namely the Mughal
and Pahadi styles as Odisha had
remained uninvaded by the Mughals
for a fairly long time, giving the art
form a window to evolve its own
unique styles which gave birth to the
Puri school of painting.
9. Originally done
mainly by men, now
Pattachitra art is done
by women and young
girls too.
interestingly, this ancient art form
hasn’t suffered a slow death due to
lack of enterprise. Chitrakars today
send their children out for exposure
and education apart from training
them in this traditional art form to
ensure that they can run their own
business rather than depending on
middlemen. Though mostly done by
men, the art form is now being taken
up full time by women and young
girls.
Odisha, the land of Lord Jagannath
is synonymous with the ancient art
form, Pattachitra. One of the many
art forms to have survived over
thousand years, Pattachitra can
virtually act like a historical chronicle
of our country through time. Simple
and rustic in appearance, you will be
surprised to know that Pattachitra
paintings require immense patience.

Car Festival Or RathaYatra
Of Sri jagannatha Puri
INDIAN DIASPORA TRADITION AND CULTURE
19. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
One of the most awaited festivals in the Orissa state as well as in
India, Jagannath Rath Yatra is an annual event, which is celebrated
in the month of June or July. It is dedicated to Lord Jagannath
(Lord Krishna), his sister Goddess Subhadra and his elder brother
Lord Balabhadra. It is also called Gundicha Yatra, Chariot Festival,
Dasavatara and Navadina Yatra.
20. WWW.WISHESH.NET | AUGUST 2019
20
INDIAN DIASPORA TRADITION AND CULTURE
It is the oldest Ratha Yatra
celebrated in the India and all over
the world. This festival is celebrated
on the second day of the Shukla
Paksha, Ashadh month as per
the traditional Oriya calendar. It is
considered most auspicious to visit
the temple during this period. The
festival in Odisha is celebrated for
nine days, the commencement of
this festival is called as the Rath
Yatra and the return journey on a
ninth day is called as Bahuda Jatra.
The celebrated Ratha Yatra Festival
is said to have started in the time
of Svarochisha Manu of the second
manvantara and is predicted to
continue until the end of the second
half of Lord Brahma’s lifetime.
Even in the Valmiki Ramayana, it
is mentioned that when Lord Rama
was getting ready to leave this
world, he told Vibhishan, Ravana’s
younger brother, to worship Lord
Jagannatha, the Lord of the Iksvaku
dynasty in His absence.
The Skanda Purana also fixes
the date of the Ratha Yatra as the
second day of the bright fortnight if
the month of Ashadha, a day called
Pushyami Nakshatra by astrological
calculations. The Padma Purana
describes that in Purushottama-
Kshetra, or Jagannatha Puri, the
supremely blissful Personality of
Godhead pretends to be made of
wood. In this way, although the
Lord takes on what appears to be
a material form, it is completely
spiritual by the causeless mercy
of the Lord for the conditioned
souls who cannot perceive the
transcendental domain of His.
21. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
Where the festival is
celebrated?
Ratha Yatra is organized
in puri. At the Jagannath
temple in puri the car
festival is celebrated. Puri is
approximately an hour and
a half from the capital city of
bhubaneswar.
When is the festival
celebrated?
As per the traditional Odia
calendar, the Ratha Yatra
begins on the second day
of Shukla Paksha (waxing
phase of the moon or bright
fortnight) of the Hindu lunar
month of Ashadha. In 2019,
it commences on July 4 and
ends on July 15.
Once every nine to 19 years,
when the month of Ashadha
is followed by another month
of Ashadha (known as
“double-Ashadha”), a rare
and special Nabakalebar
ritual takes place. Meaning
“new body”, Nabakalebara
is when the wooden temple
idols are replaced with new
ones. In the last century, the
ritual was performed in 1912,
1931, 1950, 1969, 1977,
1996, and 2015.
Nabakalebara: The
making of God
Since the idols of Lord
Jagannath, his elder brother
Balabhadra and sister
Subhadra are made from
wood, they decay over time
and need to be replaced. The
new idols are crafted from
neem wood. However, not all
neem trees are suitable for
this purpose. According to the
scriptures, the trees need to
have certain qualities (such as
specific number of branches,
color, and location) for each of
the idols.
On the year when the idols
are due to be replaced,
a contingent of priests,
servants, and carpenters
sets out from the Jagannath
Temple to find the appropriate
neem trees (locally known as
Daru Brahma) in a procession
called the Banajag Yatra. The
priests walk bare-footed to the
temple of Goddess Mangala
at Kakatpur, around 50
kilometers from Puri. There,
the Goddess appears in a
dream, and guides the priests
as to where the trees can be
found.
Once the trees are located,
they’re secretly brought back
to the temple in wooden
carts, and the new idols are
22. WWW.WISHESH.NET | AUGUST 2019

INDIAN DIASPORA TRADITION AND CULTURE
carved by a special team of carpenters.
The carving takes place in a special
enclosure, known as Koili Baikuntha,
accessed via the temple’s north gate.
Lord Krishna is believed to have been
cremated there, after being accidentally
killed by hunter Jara Savara.
The creation of new idols and
destruction of the old idols symbolizes
reincarnation.
Devotional songs and prayers from
the Vedas are chanted continuously
outside the area where the new idols
are being carved from the neem wood.
Once they’re completed, the new idols
are carried inside the inner sanctum of
the temple and placed facing the old
idols. The supreme power (Brahma)
is then transferred from the old to the
new idols, in a ritual known as Brahma
Paribartan (Changing the Soul).
This ritual is carried out in privacy.
The priest performing the ritual is
blindfolded, and his hands and feet are
wrapped in thick layers of cloth, so that
he can’t see or feel the transfer.
Once the ritual is complete, the new
idols are seated on their throne. The
old idols are taken to Koili Baikuntha
and buried there in a sacred ceremony
before dawn. It’s said that if anybody
sees this ceremony, apart from the
priests who perform it, they will die. As
a result, the state government orders
a full blackout of lights in Puri on the
night the ceremony is performed.
Afterwards, the temple rituals
recommence as normal. Flowers and
new garments are given to the deities,
food is offered, and pujas (worship) are
performed.
Pulling Of The Chariot:
The pulling of the chariot start after the given
time frame. The wooden horses are fixed
before staring of the pulling of the chariot. It
starts with Lord Balavendra and then the Ratha
of Devi Subhadra is pulled. At the end of the
pulling of the chariot of Lord Jagannatha is
performed. No Chariot pulling is done after
sunset. Usually on the second day three
chariots reaches Gundicha Ghar or Gundicha
temple.
23. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
Buhuda Yatra Or Return
Journey:
At the Gundicha temple there three gods stays
for nine days, including three days on the
journey. On 9th day three Deities shifted from
Gundicha temple to their respective Chariot
and return journey starts towards Main temple.
This journey also takes two days and on 2nd
day all chariots could reach the entrance of
main temple.
After returning from Gundicha Mandir
near main entrance all three gods will
stay for one night on the chariots and
during this time they will wear gold
ornaments. Many devotees travel to
puri to see god in these golden dress or
locally know and Suna Vesa.
Tourist from all parts of the world will visit
puri during this time. As only Hindus are
allowed to visit inside the main temple
so this is an opportunity for all other
religion and some other cast devotees to
have Darshan ( holy view ) of the three
gods, Jagannatha , Balabhadra and Devi
Subhadra.
How is the Festival
Celebrated?
The festival begins with the idols of Lord
Jagannath, along with his elder brother
Balabhadra and sister Subhadra, being
taken out of their abode in the Jagannath
Temple. The three of them travel to
Gundicha Temple, a few kilometers
away. They remain there for seven days
before returning via Mausi Maa Temple,
the abode of Lord Jagannath’s aunt.
The idols are transported on towering
chariots, which have been made to
resemble temples, giving the festival
its name of Ratha Yatra. The Chariot
Festival. Around one million pilgrims
usually flock to this colorful event.
What Ritual are performed
during the Festival:
Every year, three huge new chariots
are made for the idols to be transported
on during the festival. It’s a very
detailed process that takes place in
public, at the front of the royal palace
24. WWW.WISHESH.NET | AUGUST 2019

INDIAN DIASPORA TRADITION AND CULTURE
near the Jagannath Temple
. Construction always
commences on the occasion
of Akshaya Tritiya. In 2019, it
occurs on May 7.
About 18 days before the
Ratha Yatra festival starts,
the three idols are given a
ceremonial bath with 108
pitchers of water. This is
known as Snana Yatra and it
takes place on the full moon
in the Hindu lunar month of
Jyeshtha (known as Jyeshtha
Purnima). In 2019, it falls on
June 17. It’s believed that
the deities become sick after
the bath. Hence, they’re
kept out of public view until
they appear, dressed and
renewed, on the new moon in
Ashadha (known as Ashadha
Amavasya). In 2019, it falls on
July 2.
The occasion is called
Navajouban Darshan.The
Ratha Yatra is a community
festival. People don’t worship
in their houses or fast.When
the gods return from their
journey, they’re decorated
and adorned with ornaments
of pure gold and given a
nourishing drink, before
being placed back inside the
Jagannath Temple.
An entertaining comic scene is
enacted for onlookers, as part
of the grand finale. Goddess
Lakshmi is angry that her
husband, Lord Jagannath,
has stayed away for so long
without inviting or informing
her. She closes the doors of
the temple on him, locking
him out. Finally, he manages
to placate her with sweets,
and she relents and lets him
enter.
Important Ratha
Yatra Ritual Dates

was introduced during the
25. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
reign of king Kapilendra Deb
in 1430 and is particularly
popular. It happens in the
evening, from 5 p.m. to 11
p.m.
Niladri Bijaya/Bije: July
15;
Deities are placed
back inside
Jagannath Temple.
This spectacular chariot
festival celebrated for 8
days, is held at the famous
Jaganath Temple at Puri
(Orissa). Thousands of
devotees flock to Puri during
the occasion as they believe
that a glimpse of Lord Jagnath
in his chariot gives salvation.
Images of Lord Jaganath
- the Lord of the Universe,
his sister Subhadra and
brother Balbhadra are taken
out in a procession in three
immense chariots. The main
chariot is 14 meters high
and 10 meters square with
16 wheels. The deities are
brought out of the temple
to the chariots by rhythmic
movement called ‘Pahandi’
in a royal procession to the
accompaniment of the beat
of the ‘cymbals’ and drums
and chanting of prayers by
devotees.
The pushing and shoving
to seat Lord Jagannath on
his chariot continues for
hours. The god it seems is
testing the perseverance of
his devotees. The devotees in
turn coax, cajole, they promise
sweetmeats and other delicacies,
when all this fails they call the
Lord names and even give
blows to the idol, all the while
the surging crowd chants, sings
and dances. It is believed that on
these days Lord Jagannath will
descend from his pedestal and
mingle with his devotees with
no barrier between them. After
seating the idols, the traditional
King of Puri sweeps the Chariots
with a golden broom.
Thousands of devotees pull these
chariots to Gundicha Mandir, a
temple 3 km away. After a week,
on ‘Ashadha Sukla Dasami’, the
10th day of the bright fortnight
of Ashadha (June-July), return
journey or ‘Bahuda Yatra’ of the
deities commences in the same
manner from Gundicha temple to
the main temple like Rath Yatra.
When two months of
Ashadha fall in one year,
Rath Yatra is observed as
the festival of ‘Nabakalebar’
the old deities are buried
within the temple premises
(‘Koilibaikuntha’) and are
replaced by new deities,
carved out of Margosa
trees for which there are set
procedures. Double Ashadha
occurs at intervals of 8 to 19
years. Construction of the
chariots begin as early as
April.
One of the most awaited
festivals in the Orissa state
as well as in India, Jagannath
Rath Yatra is an annual
event, which is celebrated in
the month of June or July. I
hope this article has describe
the culture and tradition of
Ratha Yatra.
26. Chandrayaan 2
With the successful launch of the Chandrayaan
2, it is not surprising that the Indian Space
Research Organisation has initiated something
that hasn’t been done by any of the
countries before.
India’s Second Lunar Mission
to Lunar South Pole
The first lunar mission with the
Chandrayaan – 1, which was a success
too, the Indian space researchers are all
set to explore the Lunar south pole for
better pictures and evidences for possible
breakthrough in the future findings and
explorations.
The Chandrayaan – 2 consists of three
distinct parts in it – the orbiter, the rover
named as Pragyan and finally, the lander,
Vikram.
The spacecraft finally took off from
launching pad in Sriharikota on July
22nd, 2019 and is all set to land on the
moon on September 07th, 2019. The
space scientists have designated stating
that while the mission life of the Orbiter
is around 1 year, that of the orbiter and
the lander will be one Lunar day which is
equivalent to 14 Earth days.
While the first lunar mission by ISRO
was conducted in 2008, the scientists
are working to conduct and complete
this entire mission in 3 phases – the
Chandrayaan 1, Chandrayaan 2 and
finally, the Chandrayaan 3.
The final mission is believed to be
conducted in 2024 but hasn’t been
decided upon the tentative date or month
yet.
Comparing Chandrayaan 1 vs.
Chandrayaan 2
The Chandrayaan 1 was the first
successful lunar mission conducted by
the Indian Space Research Organisation
in October 2008. The functionality of
the parts of the spaceship was there
till the end of August 2009. Unlike the
second installment, the first mission’s
components included an orbiter as well
as an impactor.
WWW.WISHESH.NET | AUGUST 2019

COVER STORY
28. The Chandrayaan spaceship
was launched with the aid of
PSLV – XL rocket from the
infamous Satish Dhawan
Space Centre located in
Sriharikota.
The Chandrayaan 2, on the
other hand, was recently
launched into the space on
its mission towards the lunar
expedition on July 22nd, 2019
with the GSLV – Mk III rocket.
As mentioned before, it has
three components – the lunar
orbiter, the lander and finally,
the rover. The main objective
behind this specific launch is to
gauge the possible availability
as well as the primal location of
possible water traces on moon.
With the Chandrayaan 2,
the scientists are expecting
to promote a soft landing of
the lander, Vikram on the
lunar surface and then finally
deploy their rover, Pragyaan
to further conduct the scientific
experiments to achieve their
goals and objectives.
The Chandrayaan 1 weighed
1380 kg during life off while the
Chandrayaan 2 weighs almost
triple of that with 3850 kg.
Landing Site of the
Chandrayaan 2
When it comes to explaining
the landing site of the
Chandrayaan 2, the scientists
are expecting to make an
attempt in launching both the
lander as well as the rover
in one of the high plain
which is nestled between
the two craters of Manzinus
C and Simpelius N.
The reason why the
expedition to the Lunar
south pole is so interesting
is mainly because of the
fact that it does have
the possibility of water
presence there because of
the shadowed areas there.
Additionally, this region is
also believed to have cold
trap craters in there along
with a similar fossil record
much like that of the early
Solar system.
What are the final
objectives of the
Chandrayaan 2?
With such huge
achievements and success
rates, it is believed that the
objectives and goals behind
the Chandrayaan 2 are going
to be a huge success as well.

COVER STORY
29. Some of the important objectives
behind this specific launch include:
-->1st space mission or lunar mission to
attempt a soft landing on the Lunar south
region
-->1st Indian lunar expedition to make
such an attempt with complete domestic
components
· 4th country to land on the lunar
expedition following USA, Russia as well as

Facts about Chandrayaan 2
With the basics out of the ways about the
India’s second lunar mission, it is time that
you know a bit of a trivia surrounding the
launch of this spaceship.
-->The Chandrayaan 2 was first set to
be launched on July 15th, 2019 which was
then delayed because of some technical
issues concerning the pressure on the
helium tanks aboard the rocket
-->The orbiter is expected to conduct
remote sensing observations from around

Early Life
Mindy Kaling was born in
Cambridge, Massachusetts,
to father Avu Chokalingam, an
architect, and mother Swati
Chokalingam, an obstetrician/
gynecologist (OB/GYN).
Kaling’s parents are from
India, and met while working at
the same hospital in Nigeria.
Her father, of Tamil heritage,
was overseeing the building
of a wing of the hospital, and
her mother, a Bengali, was
working as an OB/GYN. The
family immigrated to the United
States in 1979, the same year
Kaling was born. Kaling’s
mother died of pancreatic
cancer in 2012. Kaling has one
sibling, a brother, Vijay Jojo
Chokal-Ingam, who works as
an educational consultant.
Kaling has said she has never
been called Vera, her first
name, but has been referred to
as Mindy since her mother was
pregnant with her while her
parents were living in Nigeria.
They were already planning
to move to the United States
and wanted, Kaling said, a
“cute American name” for their
daughter, and liked the name
Mindy from the TV show Mork
& Mindy. The name Vera is,
according to Kaling, the name
of the “incarnation of a Hindu
goddess.”

Good News for Indian Techies!
United States House Passes Bill
Removing Country Cap on Green Cards
The United States lawmakers recently passed a Green Card bill
aimed at lifting the per-country limits on the employment-
based cards that would in the main benefit thousands of high-
skilled Indian IT professionals, for whom the wait for Green
card is more than a decade.
A Green Card allows a person to live and
work permanently in the United States.
Titled the Fairness of High-Skilled Immigrants
Act, 2019 or HR 1044, the Bill was passed by
the 435-member House by an overwhelming
majority of 365-65 votes. As per the present
system, out of the total number of family-
based immigrant visas to be given by the U.S.
in a particular year, the people of a country
can be given a maximum of seven percent of
such visas.
The new Bill seeks to increase this seven
percent per-country limit to 15 percent.
Similarly, it also seeks to eliminate the seven
percent per-country cap on employment-
based immigrant visas. In addition, it removes
an offset that reduced the number of visas for
individuals from China.
NRI IMMIGRATION
49. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
The bill also establishes
transition rules for
employment-based visas from
FY 2020-22 by reserving a
percentage of EB-2 (workers
with advanced degrees or
exceptional ability), EB-3
(skilled and other workers)
and EB-5 (investors) visas for
individuals from other than
the two countries that get the
largest number of such visas.
As per another provision of
the Bill, not more than 85
percent of the unreserved
visas, would be allotted
to immigrants from any
single country. Before it
can be signed into law by
the U.S. president, the Bill,
however, has to be passed
by the Senate, wherein the
Republicans enjoy a majority.
An identical bill sponsored by
Senators Kamala Harris and
Mike Lee is likely to be taken
up soon.
The Senate bill S386
currently has 34 co-sponsors.
Congressman John Curtis,
speaking on the floor of the
House, said the Bill will create
a first-come, first-served
system providing certainty
to workers and families and
enabling the U.S. companies
to flourish and compete in a
global economy as they hire
the brightest people to create
products, services, and jobs,
irrespective of where they
were born.
If President Donald Trump
“is serious about merit-based
legal immigration, he should
help usher this bill into law,”
said Congresswoman Zoe
Lofgren.
Bill Hailed by Indian
American Professionals
The passage of the Bill was
hailed by Indian professionals
from across the U.S.,
particularly those from the
Silicon Valley in California,
Seattle area in Washington
state, the Greater Washington,
D.C. area and the tri-state area
of New York, New Jersey, and
Connecticut.
The Department of Homeland
Security, however, has said
it does not support the Bill.
“This bill would do nothing to
move the current employment-
sponsored system toward a
more merit-based system,”
said Joseph S Joh, Assistant

companies welcomed the
passage of the bill and urged
the Senate to pass it at the
earliest.
“Today the U.S. House passed
the legislation to ensure
people from all countries are
treated alike in the Green
Card process. This promotes
a fair high-skilled immigration
system that’s good for the
business and our economy,”
said Microsoft president Brad
Smith.
“This bill will help ensure
those seeking permanent
residency don’t have to
wait for extraordinarily long
periods, - projected at 50
years or more for people
from countries like India and
China - simply because of
their country of origin,” said
FWD. U.S. president Todd
Schulte, hailing the passage
of the FHSI Act.

“Eliminating ‘per-country’
caps for employment-based
Green Cards and raising
caps for family-based
green cards will make the
system fairer for immigrant
families and strengthen
the United States’ ability to
recruit and retain top global
talent by establishing a
fair and predictable path to
permanent legal status,” he
said.

of the Bill. “It is now up to
the Senate to ensure that
fairness is delivered to high-
skilled immigrants who have
been stuck in a decades-
long backlog waiting for
their chance to become

the American economy.
The time to act is now,” said

Brexit hardliner vowed to “get
Brexit done” by the twice-delayed
October 31 deadline. “We’re going
to get Brexit done on October

Boris Johnson Has Close
Indian Connection
Boris Johnson’s estranged
wife Marina Wheeler, whom
he married in 1993, is half
Indian. Wheeler is the niece
of the late editor and writer
Khushwant Singh. Prior to
announced their separation
early this year after being
in 25 years of marriage,
Johnson had traveled several
times to India with Marina.
They have four children
together.
Johnson is expected to
depend on his declared
personal connect with Prime
Minister Narendra Modi to
deliver a “truly special” UK-
India relationship.
In his letter to the Indian
diaspora Tory membership
base, Johnson wrote that,
during his meeting with Modi,
he had stressed upon how
India and UK were modern
democracies and should
work together to promote
trade and prosperity. Johnson
told Modi that the two nations
should work closely to tackle
the challenges that their
countries face.
The former Mayor of
London and former Foreign
Secretary, 55, has earlier
referred to himself as the
son-in-law of India. Marina’s
mother, Dip Singh, who is
still alive, was married to
Khushwant Singh’s youngest
brother, Daljit Singh.
In a column for The Tribune,
veteran journalist and
Khuswant Singh’s son Rahul
Singh writes that Johnson
visited the Ranthambore tiger
reserve along with Marina
and three of their children last
year. During a family get-
together, Rahul Singh got to
meet Johnson.
“Though I had met him once
before in Mumbai some years
earlier, this was the first time
I got a chance to talk to him
one-to-one, at some length.
I was surprised that he knew
so much about India and its
55. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
politics. Should he become
Britain’s next PM, I think
those Indian insights, thanks
mainly due to his 25-years
of marriage to Marina,
however rocky it may have
been, and personal visits to
this country, should augur
well for better Indo-British
ties.”
However, Johnson is known
to have made several
gaffes, including some
related to India. When he
was Foreign Secretary,
Johnson was berated at a
Sikh gurdwara for talking
about whiskey exports to
India - despite alcohol being
forbidden in the Sikh faith.
With a saffron turban on his
head, Johnson said in the
Bristol gurdwara in 2017:
“Whenever we go to India,
to Mumbai or to Delhi, we
have to bring ‘clinkie’ in our
baggage.
“We have to bring Johnnie
Walker, we have to bring
whiskey because as you
may know there is duty
of 150 percent in India on
imports of Scotch whiskey,
so we have to bring it in
duty-free for our relatives.
But imagine what we could
do if there was a free trade
deal with India - which there
will be.” A woman devotee
reportedly angrily told
Johnson: “How dare you
talk about alcohol in a Sikh
temple.”
In November 2014, as London
mayor, Johnson suggested
that countries that “haven’t had
the benefit of British rule” are
now “less fortunate” - during
a discussion on Winston
Churchill. Johnson explained
how he felt that Churchill would
have been “very proud” at the
“continuing legacy of Britain”
in former colonies around the
world. UK’s Boris Johnson
Pledges Post-Brexit Migration
Controls.
“He would have been very
proud at the continuing
legacy of Britain in those
places around the world,
and particularly I think he
would have been amazed
at India, the world’s largest
democracy, and a stark
contrast with other less
fortunate places that haven’t
had the benefit of British
rule, if I can say this on the
record.... why not? It’s true,
it’s true,” he said.

On 6 September 2018, Indians rejoiced as the Supreme Court
struck down Section 377 of the IPC. An interesting aspect to
the case has come up recently regarding the five-judge panel
who fought the case.

Supreme Court lawyers,
Menaka Gurswamy and
Arundhati Katju opened up as
being a couple.
Menaka Guruswamy
and Arundhati Katju had
spearheaded the legal
challenge to strike down
Section 377 of IPC.
The duo highlighted those
who suffered under the
law by enlisting more than
two dozen gay, lesbian,
bisexual and transgender
people as co-petitioners.
They contested that people
risked arrest for publicly
identifying themselves as part
of the LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay,
Bisexual, Transgender, Queer)
community.
The host Zakaria asked if the
case was much more personal
to them as the two were not
just partners in court but also a
couple.
In response, both Guruswamy
and Katju agreed and said
“Sure. That’s right”.
“The loss in 2013 was a loss
as lawyers, a loss as citizens.
It was a personal loss,” said
Guruswamy, referring to the
December 2013 judgment
of the SC which restored
Section 377 IPC to the book by
overturning the 2009 verdict of
Delhi High Court striking down
the colonial provision.
“It is not nice to be a ‘criminal’
who has to go back to court as
a lawyer to argue other cases,”
she added.
“We had a court where we
practiced as lawyers ... and
this court had just told us that
gay people were second class
citizens”, said Katju, who
added that it was very difficult.

OUT OF POVERTY IN 10 YEARS

India has registered the
quickest reduction in
Multidimensional Poverty
Index (MPI) among ten
countries with Jharkhand,
one of the poorest regions
in the world, showing swift
improvement than ever,
according to the report
released by the United
Nations.
The global report for the period
2005-06 and 2015-16 reveals
that India lifted 271 million
people out of impoverishment,
marking cut downs in ten
indicators, cooking fuel,
consolidated under assets,
sanitation, and nutrition.
In the 101 countries where
the study was performed,
1.3 billion people are
“multidimensionally poor”,
meaning the definition of
poverty does not solely
include the economics or
income but other factors
such as poor quality of
work, poor health, and the
threat of violence.
The report identifies 10
countries, with a combined
population of about 2 billion,
have illustrated a reduction
in poverty.
The 10 countries are India,
Cambodia, Bangladesh,
Vietnam, Haiti, Ethiopia,
Democratic Republic of
Congo, Peru, Nigeria, and
Pakistan.
“This progress was largely
driven by South Asia.
In India, there were 271
million fewer people in
poverty in 2016 than in
2006, while in Bangladesh
the number dipped by 19
million between 2004 and
2014,” said the report.

India’s MPI value reduced from 0.283 in
2005-06 to 0.123 in 2015-2016.
The report cites Jharkhand, which
reduced multidimensional poverty from
74.9 percent to 46.5 percent in the
ten years since 2005-06, improving
the best, followed by Rattanak Kiri in
Cambodia.
Jharkhand, Bihar, and Madhya Pradesh
have the worst MPI value.
India was among the top three
countries where poverty reduction
in rural areas outpaced that in urban
areas. The report cited this as an
indicator of pro-poor development.
“Traditionally disadvantaged subgroups such as
those living in rural India, Muslims, the Scheduled
Castes and Tribes, and young children are still
the poorest in India,” a UNDP official told Indian
Express.
In 2005-2006, the population in India living in
multidimensional poverty stood at about 640
million people (55.1 percent) and this reduced
to 369 million people (27.9 percent) living in
poorness in 2015-16.
According to the report, children experience
poverty to an extreme degree than adults and
are more probable to be deprived of all the 10
MPI indicators, lacking essentials such as clean
water, sanitation, education, and basic nutrition.

heroes. If we have to recognize heroism, then we must show
some interest in knowing about the Indian freedom fighters.
The leaders and freedom chasers took all brave steps to
see an independent India.

Chandra Shekar Azad
An Inspiration To Young India
The struggle and pain that the
freedom fighters went through
are turned out as blessings
for India. The running and
coming generations must be
grateful for the contribution
of the fighters. Now, you
must know little more about
a dynamic freedom fighter-
Chandrashekar Azad. Let’s
admire and take some
inspiration from them together.
Early Life Of Azad-
A Powerful Soul
Azad’s original name was
Chandra Shekhar Tiwari.
His mother wanted him to
FREEDOM FIGHTER
be a Sanskrit scholar. Azad
was well trained in wrestling,
swimming and archery. From
a very small age, he was a
devotee and a follower of Lord
Hanuman. He started to build
a desirable physique with
powerful physical activities like
javelin throwing.
Azad As A Freedom
Fighter- Fearless
Steps
Chandra Shekar Azad was a
strong believer of socialism
and he was a part of ‘The
Hindustan Socialist Republican
Association’. At any cost,
he wanted a complete
independent India. At a
young age, he was involved
in revolutionary activities.
After the death of Lala Lajpat
Ray, Azad killed the British
Assistant Superintendent of
Police John Poyantz which
was an act avenge. He
trembled Britishers till he was
alive.
Chandra Shekar Azad dint
leaves any chance of driving
Britishers from India. His
foundation as a freedom
fighter was by himself when
was just 15 years. It was
Mahatma Gandhi’s Non-
Cooperation Movement when
73. AUGUST 2019 | WWW.WISHESH.NET
Azad decided to fight for his
motherland. As part of fight
and protests, he was arrested.
When the authorities asked him
his name and father’s name
and residence- he replied that
his name is “Azad”, his father’s
names as Swatantrata and his
residence as the “prison cell”.
In his first protest, we had
to receive 15 whiplashes
as punishment. He took the
punishment with calmness and
then was called as Azad from
then.
A Promised Death-
Martyrdom Is Heroic
The British government was
waiting to capture Chandra
Shekar Azad dead or alive. The
government also announced
30000 rewards in return for
Azad’s information. Azad
was with his friends in Alfred
Park, Allahabad and he was
surrounded by policemen.
The policemen asked Azad to
surrender. But he was not the
one who meant to surrender.
He fought and killed three
policemen, also was badly
injured with the police attack.
After exhausting with injuries,
he had no chance of escaping.
Then, with the last bullet, he
shot himself in his head. He
kept up his words of never to
be captured by the British.
Quotes Of Chandra
Shekar Azad
“ I believe in a religion which
teaches freedom equality and
brotherhood”
“A plane is always safe on the
ground but it is not made that,
always make meaningful risks
in life to achieve great heights.”
“Don’t see others doing better
than you, beat your own
records because success
is a fight between you and
yourself.”
“We will face the bullets of the
enemies, we are free and
will remain free.”
If we are watching a movie
and having entertainment
which is temporary. Then,
we must read and learn
about our freedom fighters
which teach us something
valuable and permanent.
Hope Azad’s story
taught you a lot!

Ways To Overcome Grief And Look
Forward To A Fresh Start!
Why Live In Grief?
“ Grief is found in two parts. The first one is loss and
the second one is in remaking life”
- Anne Roiphe

Do we really overcome grief or do we
live with it? Is grief going to last long in
our heart or does it ever heal? While
grief is an emotion no one escapes from,
we all face it or heal from it in different
ways.
What comes to your mind when you
think of grief? Is it those times when
you have been through it? Or is it the
struggle behind how you got over it.
While both are equally complicated and
difficult. One’s grief can never be felt
while it can just be understood.
We all define our grief based on what
hits on us the most. No one’s grief can
be defined as big or small, it is a feeling
and you cannot get into someone
and feel it. Not everyone has the
same reasons to feel deep grief. If for
someone grief is to deal with a broken
relationship for someone grief is losing
money.
If you look at it, it is easy to be
philosophical and say that grief makes
us. However, it is true that grief is an
experience that will build you and at the
same time affect your mind. It works
both ways. How you perceive it, deal
with it and choose to let it affect you is
completely on you.
To overcome grief it is important to
understand it and observe it yourself.
It is dangerous to let grief linger in the
mind because it can end up causing
