Good evening aspirants welcome to the hindu daily news analysis brought to you by shankara is academy for the date 18th of february 2023 these are the articles which we are going to discuss today now let's get into the first article for the day take a look at this news article according to this news article a three-judge bench of the supreme court gave a judgment ordering the lieutenant governor of delhi to notify the first meeting of the municipal corporation of delhi to elect a mayor in the judgment the supreme court also mentioned that the nominated members of the municipal council cannot participate in the polls this is about the news article given here know that the union government and the delhi state government were previously locking on for quite some time regarding this particular issue since the issue was going on for some time now there was an editorial which was present in yesterday's newspaper which talked about this particular issue i have displayed here the editorial in this editorial the author talks about the background of the issue and how it can be addressed he then talks about the controversial national capital territory of delhi amendment act 2021 and finally he talks about the issues in urban local government so in our discussion today we will discuss about all the points mentioned in the editorial in detail the syllabus regarding this discussion is highlighted here interested aspirants can go through it first let's start with the background of the issue see on december 4 2022 the elections to the delhi municipal corporation was held the amadmi party won 134 out of the 250 watts present there the bar the janata party won 104 watts even though the elections were held three months back the delhi municipal corporation still does not have a proper mayor normally election of the mayor is carried out in the first meeting after a fresh election three attempts that is on january 6 and 24 and on february 6 were made to elect the mayor but every time the election of the mayor was not held due to the fighting between councillors from the bjp and the amadmi party but why were they fighting the issue was because of lieutenant governor of delhi he allowed the nominated members of the delhi municipal council to vote in the mayor election see the lieutenant governor of delhi is allowed to nominate 10 members to the delhi municipal council but the issue was whether these nominated members could be allowed to vote in the election for the mayor this issue has led to ruka's in the corporation meeting this is why the matter was brought to the supreme court the supreme court ruled that the nominated members cannot participate in the polls this is the overall background of the issue regarding delhi municipal council but how did the supreme court arrive at such a conclusion see the supreme court arrived at the conclusion based on section three b subclass one of the delhi municipal corporation act 1957 and article 243 or class two subclass a of the indian constitution first let us take the section three b one of the delhi municipal corporation act it is the section three b one which provides for the nomination of 10 members who have special knowledge or experience in municipal administration to help the delhi corporation in the same section it is clearly mentioned that such nominated persons shall not have the right to vote in the meetings of the corporation now coming to article 243 or class two subclass a in this particular article of the indian constitution it is mentioned that states through legislation can take steps to ensure that people with special knowledge on municipal administration are represented in the municipalities but the article also states that such persons do not have the right to vote these provisions clearly state that lieutenant governor allowing nominated members to vote is in violation of the delhi municipal corporation act 1957 and also the constitution this is why supreme court ruled that nominated members of the delhi municipal corporation should not have the voting powers to elect the mayor the author of the editorial states that the issue does not end here over the years the union government has been using the office of lieutenant governor to stifle the power of the democratically elected delhi legislature and the council of ministers here he mentions about the national capital territory of delhi amendment act 2021 union government stated that this amendment was brought to enforce supreme court judgment of the government of national capital territory of delhi versus union of india in this case the supreme court ruled that the delhi government was not under obligation to seek the concurrence of lieutenant governor on its administrative decisions that is the government can take decisions without receiving an ok signal from the lieutenant governor the supreme court also ruled that when there is a difference of opinion between the democratically elected delhi government and the lieutenant governor the constitutional primacy of the representative government will prevail the union government stated that the national capital territory of delhi amendment act 2021 was paused to implement this supreme court ruling but in reality it was quite the opposite the 2021 amendment stated that government in the national capital territory of delhi meant the lieutenant governor of delhi the amendment also provides discretionary powers to the lieutenant governor in matters where the legislative assembly of delhi is empowered to make laws then it also states that before making any decisions the council of ministers must seek the opinion of the lieutenant governor so basically through the national capital territory of delhi amendment act 2021 the union government is trying to control the delhi government through the office of lieutenant governor see lieutenant governors are like the governors who are present in states but with some extraordinary powers due to the fact that delhi is a union territory but granting him extraordinary powers through this national capital territory of delhi amendment act 2021 brings with it a majority of problems this is all about the national capital territory of delhi amendment act 2021 in addition to this the union government has also been taking steps to control the delhi municipal corporation in 2022 the parliament amended the delhi municipal corporation act this was done to merge the north south and east delhi municipal corporations into a single corporation here note that in the year 2011 the delhi state assembly amended the delhi municipal corporation act to trifurcate the single delhi corporation into three parts so from this we can know that before 2011 there was a single delhi municipal corporation but in the year 2011 delhi state assembly amended this and trifurcated the single corporation into three units after 11 years last year the union parliament again amended the delhi municipal corporation act and merged the three units into a single unit but here note that in the year 2011 only the delhi state assembly amended the delhi municipal corporation act to trifurcate the delhi corporation but now it was the union parliament that amended the delhi municipal corporation act to unify the delhi corporation the union government used its power under article 239 AA of the constitution to pass this law so basically the union government has been taking steps to control the delhi government and the delhi municipal corporation here note one important point union parliament has powers to pass laws on any of the three lists which are present in the seventh schedule of the indian constitution with respect to the union territory administration in india using this particular power only union parliament trifurcated the delhi municipal corporation this is all about the entire saga that is going on in delhi finally before concluding we shall see the issues faced by the municipal governments in india in general municipal governments are created as a third tier of government in the urban areas but the functioning of the municipal governments is affected by various factors now let us see them one by one firstly there is no proper devolution of power the 74th constitutional amendment envisaged states to devolve a set of 18 functions to municipal governments these 18 functions are mentioned in the 12th schedule of the indian constitution but many of these functions are still excised by the state governments through developmental agencies for example water supply for domestic industrial and commercial purposes is one of the 18 functions mentioned in the 12th schedule according to the 74th constitutional amendment act this particular function should be given to the municipal corporation present in the urban area but in reality it is not the case so for example in chennai this function is not carried out by the chennai corporation but it is carried out by a separate organization called chennai metropolitan water supply and savage board like this the state governments are taking away the majority of functions of the municipal governments which are guaranteed to them under the 12th schedule of the indian constitution this is the first issue secondly there is the issue of excessive control of the state government appointed commissioners in most states executive powers of the municipality or vested with the state government appointed commissioners this makes the office of mayor a ceremonial one here note that the commissioners who look after the municipal administration are generally an IAS officer this is about the second major issue now coming to the third one the municipal governments have no financial autonomy they have only very few revenue generating powers because of this they are mostly dependent on grants from the state and the union governments this particular problem hampers their autonomy to make independent decisions finally schemes like javagal or neru national urban renewal mission and the smart cities mission have given the union government a larger role in driving urban development and governance because of this the role of the municipal government in urban development and governance is further sidelined these are all some factors affecting the functions of municipalities in general with this we have come to the end of this discussion through this discussion we saw about the supreme court judgment regarding the mayor elections of delhi we also saw about the background of this issue and finally we also saw some points regarding the factors which are affecting the functionality of municipalities in india with all these points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion now let us take this editorial for our next discussion it draws a comparison between two budgets that were announced recently one is the 2023-24 union budget and the other is the rajasthan state budget for the same financial year now you may think that this is not a good comparison state is a smaller unit when compared to the union so the figures cannot be compared but here in this article the authors draw a parallel between the budgets to show the significance given for social security in both the budgets as you all know social security spending plays a key role in the development process of any country the authors expressed their concern over the cuts in budgetary allocation for many social security schemes in the union budget so through this discussion today we will try to understand the important points discussed by the authors in the editorial the syllabus relevant to this discussion is highlighted here interested aspirants can go through it now we will see what are the aspects highlighted by the authors from the union budget firstly the authors highlight the severe cuts in various social security and welfare schemes such as food security and mg narega they are of the opinion that these cuts in the expenditure are undermining the lives of large number of poor people in india for instance look at this graph it shows the trend in government allocation for mg narega from 2017 till today since 2022 the allocation for mg narega has been on the decline this would affect the rural employment this is the first major issue highlighted by the authors now moving on to the second issue the authors are concerned that the elderly and other social security pensioners are sidelined by the union government now why do the author say so see there is a centrally sponsored scheme called as national social assistance program see it is a social security and welfare program to provide support to aged persons widows disabled persons and bereaved families on death of their primary bedwinner apart from this households which are below poverty line also receive funds through this social security scheme the problem is that since 2007 social security pensions under this scheme have remained constant the pension amount is a meagre 200 rupees for the elderly and 300 rupees for widows and persons with disabilities in addition to this only those who appear in the below poverty line list of census 2001 are given pensions see after the year 2001 we have conducted census in the year 2011 but this data is not used for selecting below poverty line households so from this itself we can say it is a very old and discredited data based on which national social assistance program is being run further this year the program saw a reduction of rupees 16 crores so according to the authors this is undermining the concept of inclusive growth as a wide variety of low income earners are neglected by the union government this is where the authors try to draw a parallel with the Rajasthan state budget the Rajasthan government through its budget had announced that a minimum income guarantee and pension law will be enacted in the state and it also said that it would provide 125 days of work through the rural or urban employment scheme besides this a minimum social security pension of rupees thousand per month with an automatic increase of 15 percentage per annum was also announced a second parallel can also be taken on the lines of national social assistance program that we were talking about earlier see as I mentioned national social assistance program is a centrally sponsored scheme we know that centrally sponsored schemes are not entirely funded by the union the union government makes some contribution and state governments are encouraged to match the remaining deficit amount but now the central government contribution remains pathetically low majority of the states are providing for several times the amount suggested through their budgetary allocation for example Rajasthan provides social security pensions to over 90 lakh people with the national social assistance program covering only the pension amount of only 10 lakh pensioners see from this data we can see that Rajasthan out of its budget expenditure finances nearly 80 lakh people for their pensions central government only provides pension for nearly 10 lakh pensioners under its national social assistance program besides this as I already said for calculating the estimated number of beneficiaries the central government relies on the old data of 2001 additionally the criteria for providing disability pensions is also very stringent only those with a disability level of 80 percentage or more are given pensions this has excluded lakhs of disabled people within the pension scheme on the other hand in the year 2013 the Rajasthan government changed its eligibility criteria to expand the coverage of pensioners it made economically vulnerable women above 55 and men above 58 eligible for old age pensions it also permitted widows with adult children to receive a widow pension then it also included anyone with more than 40 percentage disability to receive a disability pension if you can recall central government only provided disability pension for those who have disability level of 80 percentage here the authors highlight one another important aspect that is inflation and its indexing what does indexation mean see indexation to inflation means adjusting wages or prices to keep pace with the rising cost of living the cost of milk today is not the same as it was 10 years before in india we are seeing an average annual inflation rate of 6.95 percentage this means that rupees 200 in the year 2007 would have to become rupees 586.38 paisa in 2023 if indexed so keeping the pension amount constant would not help anyone these are the major points discussed by the authors in this editorial through giving a comparative analysis between the union government spending on social security programs and the state of Rajasthan spending in the same area the article gives a wholesome idea of how two different governments differ in their approach towards social security spending so finally as a way forward the authors says that other states and even the government of india should follow the example of rajasthan and take the necessary steps along these lines this would provide more credible entitlements and strengthen accountability then the union government must recognize the pension as a right for work done by the unorganized sector workers because they are the ones contributing to the gdp and to the economy all their lives this would ensure minimum condition for workers to live their retired lives with dignity also the rights based entitlements provide dignified living to people which should be the objective of any democracy here i want to add one more point by incentivizing the industries the government assumes that supply may spur up but if people do not have proper income support the demand for communities would not rise therefore even if industries are encouraged through different schemes they would not produce more because there is less demand these aspects should also be considered by the central government when they are spending for social security schemes so in this discussion today we saw a comparative analysis on the social sector spending by two different governments we also saw some key points which can be learned from the budget spending of rajasthan government by all other states present in india with all these points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion now let us take this article for our discussion before seeing the contents present in the article know that february 18 is observed as world pangolin day with this information now let us see what is given in the article the article is based on a report by a non-profit organization regarding pangolin trade in india it has reported that nearly 1203 pangolins were found in illegal wildlife trade across india from the year 2018 to 2022 according to the report up to 24 states and one union territories were involved in ceasars relating to pangolins here note that odysa reported the maximum number of incidents with 154 pangolins involved in 74 ceasars it is followed by magarastra this is the overall crux of the news article given here let's take this opportunity to learn about pangolins first of all look at this image at first instance you might have thought that pangolins are a kind of reptiles but they are not so see they are actually mammals in fact they are the only mammals which are only covered in scales they use these scales to protect themselves from predators in the wild like the image provided here if under threat a pangolin will immediately curl into a tight ball and will use their sharp scaled tails to defend themselves this is all about a brief background of pangolins now coming to the different types of it here know that there are totally eight species of pangolins four are found in india and the remaining four are found in africa asian species include chinese sunda indian and philippine pangolins african species of pangolins include ground pangolin giant pangolin white bellied and black bellied pangolins out of the eight species indian pangolin and chinese pangolin are found in india generally indian pangolin is found throughout the country south of himalayas excluding the north eastern part of our country the chinese pangolin is found in asam and eastern himalayas this is all about the habitat of the pangolins now let us see some of its characteristics firstly pangolins are solitary and they are active mostly at night secondly most of the pangolins live on the ground but some like the black bellied pangolin also climb trees thirdly in size they range from a large house cat to more than four feet long fourthly as we already saw they are largely covered in scales which are made up of a component called keratin it sounds familiar right see it is the same component which is present in human air and fingernails because of the presence of these scales they are also called as scaly anteaters this is due to the fact that like anteaters pangolins have long snouts and even longer tongues pangolins use these snouts to eat ants and termites this is why they are called as scaly anteaters finally let us see briefly about the defense mechanism of pangolins when threatened they roll into a ball like a armadillo here know that they also release a skinky fluid from a gland at the base of their tail as a defense mechanism this is how they try to protect them against the predators when they are in danger now before concluding our discussion let us see about the conservation status of pangolins know that pangolins are in wide demand across the trafficking markets all around the world they are killed for their scales and meat the scales are used in traditional Chinese medicine and the meat is a delicacy among some ultra wealthy in the countries of China and Vietnam this is exactly why these species are protected know that IUCN status of the pangolins range from vulnerable to critically endangered Indian pangolin is listed as endangered and the Chinese pangolin is listed as critically endangered here I have a task for you read and take notes of IUCN status of other pangolin species which I have discussed already also know that both these species are protected under schedule one of wildlife protection act 1972 they are also present in appendix one of sites this is all with respect to this discussion through this discussion we came to know about a lot of features of pangolins and finally we also saw some facts relating to conservation status of them with all these points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion now let us take this article for our next discussion the article reports that the union health ministry has devised a strategic roadmap for achieving zero cases of leprosy infection by the year 2030 this is because the country still accounts for over half of the world's new leprosy patients so to bring down the cases of leprosy in India the national strategic plan and roadmap for leprosy is devised this is the crux of the article given here in this context let's learn about leprosy in prilam's perspective know that leprosy is caused by a slow growing bacteria called mycobacterium lepre it is a chronic infectious disease it is also known by the name hansons disease it primarily affects the nerves of the extremities here the term extremities refers to the parts of the human body furthest from the heart for example arms and legs it also affects the skin the inner lining of the nose and also the upper respiratory tract so if leprosy isn't treated it can cause several disfigurement and significant disability to our body the most interesting fact about hansons disease is that it is one of the oldest disease in recorded history the first known written reference to hansons disease is from around 600 bc this is all about the basics of leprosy now let us see the effects of leprosy on human body know that leprosy primarily affects the skin and nerves outside the brain and spinal cord these nerves are called as peripheral nerves it also affects the eyes and thin tissue lining which is inside the nose so the main symptoms of leprosy include disfiguring of skin lumps or bumps that don't go away after several weeks or even months it can also result in nerve damage nerve damage can further lead to loss of feeling in the arms and legs and also cause muscle weakness see usually it takes about three to five years for symptoms to appear after coming into the infectious bacteria in some cases people don't really develop symptoms until 20 years so leprosy's long incubation period makes it very difficult for doctors to determine when and where a person with leprosy got infected here know that the time period between contact with the bacteria and the appearance of symptoms is called the incubation period now let us move on to see about the treatments available against leprosy see leprosy is a curable disease to cure leprosy antibiotics are used typically two or three antibiotics are used simultaneously at the same time this is called as multi-drug therapy now what is this reason for using multi-drugs simultaneously see this is because the strategy helps to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance by the bacteria like I already said if left untreated the nerve damage can result in paralysis and crippling of hands and feet in some cases it will result in the loss of toes and fingers apart from this corneal ulcers or blindness can also occur if facial nerves are affected so it is better to diagnose and treat the disease early with this we have come to the end of this discussion through this discussion we came to know about the causes of leprosy the effects of it on our human body and finally we also saw about the term multi-drug treatment with these learned points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion now have a look at this news article taken from yesterday's newspaper according to the article the opposition members of parliament are asking for a joint parliamentary committee to investigate the adhani issue the opposition party general secretary has said that setting up any committee other than the joint parliamentary committee would be an exercise in futility to investigate the adhani issue the issue given in the article is not per se relevant for our examination so let us take this opportunity to discuss about the joint parliamentary committees see joint parliamentary committee is a type of hard committee set up by the indian parliament here the term ad hoc means it is not a permanent committee like the other committees present in the parliament it is purposefully notified for satisfying a single objective here note that joint parliamentary committee can be formed in two ways a joint parliamentary committee can be formed when a motion is adopted by one house and it is supported or agreed by the second house other than this a joint parliamentary committee can also be formed when the preceding officer of the houses of the parliament right to each other these are the two ways in which a joint parliamentary committee can be formed now coming to the composition of joint parliamentary committee see the joint parliamentary committee has members from both loksaba and rajasaba the number of members of the joint parliamentary committee is different each time it is constituted the only thing that must be ensured is that the number of loksaba members must be twice the number of rajasaba members for example if a joint parliamentary committee has 15 members in total 10 must be from loksaba and 5 must be from rajasaba this is all about the information regarding composition of members of joint parliamentary committee now let us see about the powers of this committee firstly a joint parliamentary committee can obtain evidence of experts public bodies or individuals so motor are on requests made by them if a witness fails to appear before a joint parliamentary committee in response to summons his or her conduct constitutes a contempt of the house secondly the joint parliamentary committee can take oral and written evidence it can also call for documents in connection with a matter which is under its consideration here note that the proceedings of joint parliamentary committee in most cases are confidential these are some of the powers of the joint parliamentary committee finally let us see the instances when a joint parliamentary committee was constituted in India for nearly 40 years after independence of our nation no joint parliamentary committees were constituted it was constituted for the first time in the year 1987 to look into the allegations made in the Bofors scandal apart from this seven other times joint parliamentary committees are constituted in India I have given here the instances of constitution of joint parliamentary committee to look into a specific issue you can pause the video and go through it see upc can ask this particular information as a question itself so kindly go through it with this we have come to the end of this discussion through this short discussion we have seen about joint parliamentary committee as I already said it is a type of ad hoc committee which is primarily constituted to look into a particular issue after submitting its report the committee gets deconstituted this is all about this discussion with these learned points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion take a look at this news article this news article talks about the plan of state government of Tamil Nadu to include persons who are involved in the illegal dumping of untreated biomedical waste into the description of gundas under the gundas act now suddenly it is a news because of the illegal dumping of biomedical waste inside the state of Tamil Nadu from the adjoining Kerala see following a petition filed in the year 2018 it has been found out that untreated hazardous and biomedical waste from the state of Kerala is dumped in the border districts of Tamil Nadu so while submitting the status report on the issue the state government said that it has planned to expand the description of gundas under the Tamil Nadu gundas act of 1982 so what does this term gunda mean see gunda actually means a violent aggressive person who is hired to intimidate or harm people and gundas act is a type of preventive detention law that enables the authorities to imprison persons without having to provide for a court trial the first gundas act in british india was enacted in the presidency of bengal in the year 1923 the law is used in several forms in several states for preventive detention of habitual offenders likewise the version of gundas act in Tamil Nadu is known as Tamil Nadu prevention of dangerous activities of bootleggers drug offenders gundas immoral traffic offenders forest offenders sand offenders slump grabbers and video pirates act 1982 even a single offense under the act enables the authorities to detain a person as a gunda just now we saw that the government of Tamil Nadu is planning to expand the description of gunda right if that happens then person who illegally dump untreated biomedical waste into the state of Tamil Nadu can also be detained as gunda under this preventive detention act here you might have a doubt why should we detain them without even giving them an opportunity to approach their court to get a bail see it is to prevent them from indulging in dangerous activities that are detrimental to maintaining the peace and public order see the gundas act is an extraordinary legislation which gives unaccumulated power in the hands of the state to detain a person even without any trial this type of detention is this type of detention is only called as preventive detention preventive detention means detention of a person without trial and conviction by a court its purpose is not to punish a person for a past offense but to prevent him or her from committing an offense in the near future so preventive detention is a precautionary measure and purely based on suspicion on the other hand there is another type of detention called punitive detention punitive detention is to punish a person for an offense committed by him or her after trial and conviction in a court here note that article 22 class 1 and class 2 of our Indian constitution grants protection to persons from arbitrary arrest by the state now if you look at class 3 of the same article it grants the state some exceptions from class 1 and 2 it allows the state to detain enemy aliens and persons who are arrested under preventive detention laws so persons who are arrested under class 3 of article 22 does not gain the rights which are guaranteed to him under class 1 and 2 of the same article so the fundamental rights part of our constitution itself grants the Indian government the power to preventive detention of a person this is a brief about the preventive detention provision which is present in the constitution of India as I already said similar to Tamil Nadu other states also have preventive detention laws I have displayed here the laws of preventive detention of other states you can pause the video and go through the acts given here and here I have displayed some of the examples of preventive detention laws which are made by the union parliament previously I had displayed the laws which are made by the state parliaments now this is the laws which are made by the union parliaments many of these laws were repealed by the supreme court of India stating that these laws were against the constitution some of the examples of repealed laws are maintenance of internal security act 1971 and the preventive detention act 1950 with this we have come to the end of this discussion through this discussion we came to know about the term gundas the articles relating to preventive and punitive detention present in the part three of our Indian constitution and finally we saw the list of state and union laws relating to preventive detention in India with these learned points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion for our next discussion let us take this article the article says that the national green tribunal has imposed a fine of rupees 2232 crore on the Delhi government the fine is for the damage caused to the environment due to improper solid and waste management additionally national green tribunal has also constituted a panel under lieutenant governor vk succena to monitor the capitals solid waste management this is the crux of the news article given here in this context let us see about national green tribunal in detail first of all let us see when was the national green tribunal established see national green tribunal was established in the year 2010 as per the national green tribunal act it is a specialized judicial body equipped with expertise solely for the purpose of adjudicating environmental cases in the country now what is the need for such a tribunal when supreme court and high courts are already present see we all know most environment cases involve multidisciplinary issues so it will be better addressed in a specialized forum and for this purpose only national green tribunal was formulated so accordingly tribunal is tasked with providing effective and expedient remedy in cases relating to environmental protection conservation of forests and other natural resources additionally it is also tasked with the enforcement of any legal right relating to environment know that this particular tribunal is mandated to dispose the applications and appeals filed before six months of initial data filing with this let us move on to see the jurisdiction of the tribunal it is said that if a person is seeking relief for environmental damage involving subjects in the legislations mentioned in schedule one of the ngt act then he or she may approach the tribunal the legislations in schedule one include the water prevention and control of pollution says act 1977 the forest conservation act 1980 the air prevention and control of pollution act 1981 the environment protection act 1986 the public liability insurance act 1991 the biodiversity act 2002 so these are all the acts which are covered under the adjudicating power of national green tribunal know that the tribunal has jurisdiction over all civil cases involving a substantial question relating to environment additionally if any person is aggrieved by an order or direction of the appellate authorities under the legislation since schedule one then that aggrieved person can challenge the orders before the national green tribunal finally before concluding this discussion let us see about the places of sitting of national green tribunal and its composition as far as the places of sitting of national green tribunal is concerned the tribunal has presence in five zones the zones are north central east south and west the principal bench of ngt is situated in the north zone which is headquartered in dilly the central zone bench situated in bhopal east zone in kolkata south zone in chennai and west zone in punay now coming to the composition know that the tribunal is headed by the chairperson the members include at least 10 but not more than 20 judicial members and at least 10 but not more than 20 expert members so from this we can see that national green tribunal has both judicial and expert members in it with this we have come to the end of this discussion through this discussion we have seen about national green tribunal in prilam's perspective with all the points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion now let's take this news article for our next discussion it says that kishmiri pundits are celebrating the mahasivratri in a subdued manner this year in kishmir this is because there was a spree of killings of kishmiri pundits by militants recently so following this there was a huge migration of pundits from kishmir to different parts in the past one year this is the crux of the article given now let's take this opportunity to learn about saivism and its lesser known sects see saivism is a section of hindu religion which is primarily devoted to the worship of god shiva its followers are only termed as saivites know that the origin of shiva can be traced back to the concept of rudra in rik veda see presently saivism can be divided into three or four sects they are saiva siddhanta of tamiladu veera saivas of karnataka keshmir saivism and gorkhnath saivism we are not going to concentrate on these broader sects today but we are going to see about the smaller lesser known sects of saivism let's first see about pasupathas the earliest of saiva sects was the pasupathas sect know that the pasupathas wielded great influence over south indian saivism from the seventh to the 14th century cg the founder of this group was lakulisa here note that pasupathas smear their body with ash second is the kapalika school the school dates back to 8th century c e the followers of this school traditionally carried a skull topped trident and an empty skull as a begging ball the followers of this particular kapalika school carried with them six different marks all the time the six marks are a necklace an ornament other than necklace and earring a crust ash and the sacred thread are yajnopavitha they believe that the person whose body bears these marks is free from transmigration so they always carry these six marks always with them today the kapalika tradition survives within its saivite offshoot of the agori order then finally comes the kalamuka school see it was an important saiva sect from the 10th to 13th century c e in the present day karnataka as per some scholars the kalamuka school of faiishnavism was an extreme sect they indulged in practices like eating food in a skull and coating their bodies with ashes the followers of this particular sect is known as mahavratin this is all with respect to this discussion through this discussion we saw about the three minor saivism schools which were present in medieval india see the names of these schools can be given in the question and asked what are these schools related to so kindly make a note of the names which i have discussed with this let's move on to the next part of our hindu daily news analysis which is nothing but the prilam's practice question discussion today i have taken five different questions for our discussion four will be discussed by me and one will be the quiz question for you now let's start with the first question see it is a two statement question and it is regarding leprosy coming to statement one leprosy is a bacterial infection see the statement is correct regarding this we saw in the discussion itself it is primarily caused by a bacteria called mycobacterium lepre so statement one is correct now coming to the second statement the disease is spread through casual contact with a person who has leprosy by shaking hands or hugging or sharing meals or sitting next to each other see this statement is incorrect the disease is transmitted through only droplets from the nose and mouth so prolonged close and repeated contact over months with someone with untreated leprosy is needed to catch the disease and the disease is not spread through casual contact with a person who has leprosy like shaking hands or hugging sharing meals or sitting next to each other so statement two is incorrect the question is asking the correct statements so the correct answer for this question is option a one only now moving to the second question this question is relating to national green tribunals three statements are given and we have to find out the correct statements now coming to the first statement the tribunal is not bound by procedure under the code of civil procedure 1908 but it is vested with the powers of civil court under the code of civil procedure 1908 for discharging its function see the statement is correct know that ngt is not bound by procedure under the code of civil procedure but it is vested with powers of civil court under the same procedure here also know that ngt is guided by principles of natural justice so statement one is correct now coming to the second statement national green tribunals act 2010 gives the tribunal power to regulate

being captured by predators which of the abo organisms roll up and protect their vulnerable parts from a discussion itself we know that three should be in the answer so we can eliminate option a and b now we are left only with option c and d we have to know whether hedgehog roll up itself when confronted with a predator see i have displayed here the picture of hedgehog from the picture itself we

So I Back in November passion Jaffa comes He gave me this prophecy that I'm gonna start a healing and a deliverance ministry, especially to people who are mentally ill I have not forgiven him for that yet That was not the prophecy I wanted I don't really like hanging around mentally ill people I don't know any people who do I'm sorry but you know God actually cares about that stuff And it's not actually like an evil that the person is doing that They're having problems. It's it's a it's a problem and you can't like cast it out You can't say in the name of Jesus you're gonna come out of her come on You can you or you can do it all day long if you want to But there's a problem it's not Spiritual exactly and it's not physical exactly It's somewhere in between So I want to talk to you today about the ceiling for your healing Because you know what? your soul What happens in your soul is gonna determine the ability of your body to be healed in many places Your soul is a part of us that we don't really talk about too very much and sometimes I think we're kind of embarrassed to have Oh, I don't really have needs. I don't I mean me. You don't know think about me and my needs I'm not that important. I'm just gonna know we actually all have a soul We all have an important part of us and I'm gonna start out with a couple things but first about about God This isn't an accident God himself as a community From before there was ever time God was a community father son and Holy Spirit This is when we say God is love That's what we mean. That means forever since forever. God has been in love With him. There's three of him. There's three persons in the eternity one God But three persons and he and they love each other and so when we say God is love and when we say love is important What we really mean is we're gonna be like God and love like he loves Because then he created us to be the object of his love. Here's the deal I want you to understand that it's not just that God is love It's that he can't do anything else but help he can't help but love you He totally totally loves you. Would you come up and Brian and give me a give some backup on the on the cheese Cuz that's just awesome Yeah, thanks Brian appreciate bro So you could diagram it did you put the put that thing up? Yeah, so look This is a diagram of what the what you could owe vision of what God is like at the top And you could order these differently right, but I'm just saying the most holy divine You know God like you can think of as the father He seems kind of remote sometimes, but he's the he's the father right and then we have Jesus the son who came and walked here and Got dust on his feet and had to go to the bathroom and had people talking bad about him and stuff like that And we have the spirit who he left with us who connects us to God. So that's that's sort of How I see God I want you to know that we are each a community too God made us in his image. What did that mean? Does this is what God looks like? Well, actually, yeah He does look like this. This is what God looks like on earth. This is what God looks like on earth, right? You are what God looks like on earth But we're all a community you can diagram it almost the exact same way Look if you give you got the image there We are spirit soul and body our spirit is the part that relates to God Our body is the parts our earth suit.  We are on this earth, but in the middle between the two there's this soul You know the bottom part here the body that's material we can see it. It's extended in space Right the top part the spirit. How do you measure? How much is your spirit way? How long is it? How tall is it? I don't know there isn't any of that. It's in the spirit But in the middle there's this soul part and we can sometimes we neglect that part But I want you to understand that that part is important because that's Let's see next next slide here. That's where we have a lot of problems a lot of problems that The Bible really talks about But we don't always address so I want you to know here in the middle in the soul That's where your mind will and emotions are and if you want that's kind of where your Personality is where your brain is in your body. It kind of overlaps that part The soul is the part of you that makes you you and I call this the decision part there the decision zone because Okay, here's how it goes right your body lives on this earth and really likes pizza and sleep and Drugs and sex and whatever else just wants to do whatever it's like. Yeah, I want that right that's what your body Your body just wants to let's face it if we were just animals We would be just bodies and we would just do whatever we wanted to do right Your spirit is like always facing God It's like in heaven looking at God's face all the time and it doesn't have any it's like Why would I want to do all that messy stuff that's kind of separate my relationship with God? I want to totally serve God with everything look I don't care if you are strung out on drugs right now in a ditch on the side of the road You have a spirit if you're saved your spirit has sitting before the throne of God and it is Serving and loving and praising God with all its worth Right now. I don't care where you are. That's who you are. Your spirit is your raw identity But the decider in the middle Decides am I gonna side with the body or am I gonna side with the spirit and We got that decision every single day and every single moment of every single day We decide that and I am sorry to say that I do not always decide with the spirit. Sorry. I Eat that extra slice of pizza right or I Don't go to the gym or I don't actually talk to the person who looks like they're really in need right now Because I just really don't want to Right Because I'm I'm looking at things from my body perspective I'm like, you know, I'd be late if I did that But you know what my spirit cares about their spirit because all of our spirits are connected to God I want you to know that you see that attacks up there The attacks that is where the world the flesh and the devil They're the enemies of your soul and that's where the devil can attack you the devil cannot attack your spirit Your spirits in heaven the devil got kicked out from there He got kicked out. He's done. He can't get you in the spirit But he can get your soul. He can attack your soul. He can attack who you are He puts all kinds of things in your soul the lust of the flesh the lust of the eyes the pride of life at 1st John 2 16 That's taking place in the soul and this is not look I want you to know It's not about what you do Does it make sense? It's not actually about what you do. It's about what you think That's where the devil wins or loses You can do all kinds of things that people might say well, you're not supposed to smoke you're not supposed to drink what if By smoking and drinking you were actually part of winning someone to Jesus because they can't see you if you're not part of their crowd How about that? Yeah, that's not real popular in the church, right? I may not get to preach again. Sorry, but uh, It's it's not popular to think that all these bad habits But you know what it's not about what you do It's about what you agree with it's about what you think about what you do if if I can do things And be completely free of guilt and condemnation and shame You know if if it's far further in the kingdom of god, there's we got a lot of leash that we can go on Jesus was absolutely free but If by doing those things It kind of condemns me a little bit and I kind of feel like I'm less and I'm not or if I sit back in the back And say well, I'm not one of those holy people sitting up front If that's what's happening then your flesh is getting in the way Of your spirit through your soul It's a problem Let me give you some examples here Well, maybe it has something else for a first year. Look in this in this in this world Your soul will be wounded.  Yes, you will get hurt.  I'm sorry.  You can get but you can get wounded Living perfectly making the perfect decision every single time and someone will reach out into your soul and attack you And you can't help it and you're gonna get wounded The question is not whether you're wounded or not Everybody here has been wounded every can anybody raise your hands. I've never been wounded If so see me afterwards. I will wound you you'll understand and join the join the club, right? You'll be good You're gonna get wounded. The question is how do you treat your wound? Right, so if I get a scratch Or a cut I put a band-aid on it, but I don't leave the dirt in there Right, you wash the dirt out because the dirt infects us Why do we do that with our souls? We put band-aids on it all the time And we leave all the dirt in there and all the time we're saying I can't believe he did that I can't believe she said that I can't believe And we're just you got all the dirt down in there and we just don't want to give up the dirt We're like thinking about well that made me feel so bad and he knew that and she I can't believe what they put on facebook and I like You know or instagram for those of you who are you know younger than me instagram now I can't believe they posted that to instagram. I just got an instagram account. So yeah, I yeah There's hope for me, right If I'm if I'm like grousing about that So look do you give the hurt to jesus?  So I just can't take this stuff Please take it. Is that what you do because that's like washing the wound and getting it clean Then you can put a band-aid on it And and talk The way that you should about about then you can go around and say yes, I'm healed the name of jesus But don't you go saying? Nursing you're hurt feeling sorry for yourself And just looking for sympathy, you know, look, there are people There are people I'm not going to name any names, right Some of them might be here. I'm just gonna say that Who are always about how would you pray for me because you know, I'm really being attacked right now And I just cannot how to do it. I you know how to deal with it I just need someone to pray for me because I just don't know how to And it's okay to need prayer But some people are like that all the time, right? They're like I got an f on my final exam and I feel bad about this and so I just I just need prayer because I'm gonna attack right now. No, you didn't study for your test. Okay So there are people who live in feeling sorry for themselves And and like saying so let me just ask you this. Please do not raise your hand. Okay Okay, you can raise your hand Darrell. Okay. It's Darrell. Yeah, that's it Do I feel sorry for myself? and close And look for look for sympathy and then close that dirt into that wound and then stick a bandit over it and say Oh, I'm healed in the name of Jesus brother. I'm healed in the name of Jesus. Yeah, I'm healed. No problem Or do I give it to Jesus? What are you gonna do? Right? So let me move on I'm gonna run out of time Let me give you an example of a healthy healing process Take a look at david What did david do? Let me give you the story. This is from first Samuel 30 I won't ask you to look at it now But I would ask you to look at it and think about it a little later on Okay, this is what happened 13 years david's gotten chased out of his house and chased all over the countryside by a wicked king Even though david has been anointed as king of israel to take sol's place Sol is chasing david all over the countryside persecuting him trying to kill him on multiple occasions, right? So one day 13 years after that he's living in the country of israel's biggest enemy the philistines He has a little town called ziklag, which is just part of the philistine territory at that time And he has 600 men who are following him and they're serving the philistine king because the israelite king won't have them He'd kill them So they go into serve the philistine king the philistine king says, you know, I'm going to go into war with israel I think you might turn your back on me and betray me. So I'm gonna have you go back home He goes back home to find out that the amalekites raiders have come and taken his whole town Burned it to the ground stolen everything taken the women taken the children taken the livestock taking it all away This is a bad day. Have you had a day like that? I doubt it But I have not I've never had my livestock stolen because I've never had livestock Uh, no one's ever come to my house and and burned it to the ground taking my wife and kids Okay, that's a bad day. Now. There are people who have that happen, but get this the next thing is it says the next thing In verse 6 it says david's men Were conspiring to kill him to stone him to death. Okay 600 men They've all gotten their wives and children stolen and they're blaming david for it And david's already having a bad day, right and they're blaming him for it. You know what it says in verse 6 I want you to get this but david Strengthened himself in the lord But david Strengthened himself in the lord. That's what that's the first step to be healthy Strengthen yourself in the lord. Look, we don't have the strength to do this We can't make this on our own There's none of us here strong enough to make it. I can't make it on my own Don't call me super christian.  I can't make it without that. I have to give it to him, right? I got to give it to him So on your worst day find strength in the lord Next thing he does in verses 7 to 8 is he gets the priest and he asks god, what do I do? Because everything's gone. I mean as far as he knew everyone was killed He had no no he's like god. What do I do? Do I chase after him and god says chase after him says will you give me victory if I if I if I do it He says y'all give me victory So he takes the necessary action that's the third thing he does what god says And then when he has victory he's not like ha ha I got it all that I got all the stuff now ha ha ha No, he actually sends gifts to people. He shares god's goodness That's crazy good. If you want to know how to live life look at david. He's awesome But if you want to know how not To live life look at sol. He's a great example of how not to do it Saul made a lifestyle of jealousy hurt and competition. He made his lifestyle He had the sudden anger over little things and this is in 1st Samuel chapter 20 verse 30 it says he Got so angry at his son jonathan for siding with david He yelled at him and he called us he said you son of a perverse woman Okay, you married her so come on But Yeah, he's like he's like, don't you know if he if david lives you're never gonna get the kingship So he got really mad over a little thing david was excused from dinner Do you find yourself doing that? Do you like go off the handle and oh, I can't help it. I don't know Maybe think about this.  Well, I did this for her and all she's ever done to me is that and I can't believe You know After all I've done for her after all and she just had the nerve to say that and I always do this and I do this and I do Am I keeping score? Have I forgotten the score at calvary? Have I forgotten the score at the cross? Jesus only ever did good for me and I crucified him And blamed him for everything I've ever done and he sat there and said I did it for me So let's not keep score. Okay, because the score is not really in our favor All right, but if you're keeping score that might be an issue you get paranoid about another person's success david was succeeding and sol's like I have to kill him. I have to kill him He was his best captain. He was his son-in-law.  I mean, we don't like to use the word paranoid But that's a problem right if you think that If you think everyone's out to get you you're probably wrong Because you're all we're doing a great job yourself just saying You're pay good with evil That's what sol did and here's another one to choose silence or violence rather than solving the problem Okay, here's a great example Are you upset honey? No I'm not upset No Well, can you talk to me? Not right now. I think I have a headache Okay, that's not just women. I just want you to know I may have seen this once for a while, but but this is not Men do this too. We get really snitty and we're like, no That's choosing silence rather than solving the problem. How are we solving the problem with that? We're trying to punish the other person. How are we solving the problem by punishing the other person? Okay, it's not any better to go to violence and say you did this you did that and just explode All of everyone that's not good either Neither one of us is solving the problem and you know what that should tell you I got wounds in my soul I got dirt in those wounds and I'm trying to fix it by holding myself together And all I'm doing is holding the dirt inside and it's killing me and so I'm gonna kill you That's what that says Do you see that in yourself? I'm not asking you to nod your head right now. Okay But please understand that every single person in this room could nod their head with that. Okay, including me I have lived there for years And I'm telling you it's not a happy camp. It's a bad place All right, and then when you find yourself You find yourself stuck You feel stuck I hear so many people. I'm just waiting for my blessing. I'm just waiting for my breakthrough I'm trying to get my breakthrough.  You asked for it. I gave it and you're like god. Why don't you answer my prayers? He's like Look up it's right there. It's right there rabbit You find yourself stuck in addictions Or obsessions, which is what sol thought he was addicted to music if he didn't have the music he would just blow up Right. He was obsessed with david He had anxiety and depression Okay Look christians don't like mental illness. We don't even like to admit that it's possible for us to have it Oh, no, I'm I'm going with the lord. Good brother. I'm I'm I'm I'm good. I'm good. Oh, yeah Well, you're you're taking I don't even remember the names of some of the medicine. You're you're taking uh, you know Oxycodone or whatever Yeah Okay, maybe maybe there's some soul healing needs to happen there I want you to know inner healing Is a name for the process for a healthy process of dealing with soul wounds. Everyone needs it I need it and I'm going to tell you how it works There's four major steps to inner healing Follow holy spirit Follow holy spirits number one Don't go off on your own into your hurt. You'll get lost there If you like spend a lot of time going Oh, what happened to me? You'll get lost in your own hurt Follow holy spirit. Here's how you follow holy spirit. You ask him to lead you He's faithful.  You keep holding on to his hand And you ask him to tell you what's wrong. Don't tell him what's wrong I was I was in the situation Let's see myself in the situation. Listen, there was a woman that I was helping through this And she could see herself as a little child being abused Right and it was ugly I asked her ask holy spirit. What are you feeling right then?  Here's what's not a feeling word I was attacked That's about you attacking me I was betrayed. No, that's about someone doing bad things to you. What were you actually feeling? Ask holy spirit to help you name it. This is really hard for us men because we just like we're either happy or we're mad There's not much in between and there's no degrees of mad. We're just mad And it's just not right. We're mad Women can tell you 36 different words for why they're upset with things like that. It's awesome So if you're married ask your wife to help you with your vocabulary, but meantime Holy spirit can really help you To to figure it out and some people like to just like to visualize this nasty thing in them Like this ball of goo or like a tumor or something That's identifying the problem When you're there, I want you to feel that hurt To really feel it right And then the second step is give it to jesus Because the truth is he already took it and he doesn't want you to have it He paid for it all look if he paid for it. Why are you holding on to it? Why are you paying for it too? He's he's not gonna say who I don't want that one.  He just wants you to give it up So you got to say Jesus would you take this? I don't want this anymore Sometimes people want their hurt. Do you know that? Because it empowers them They're like if I have this hurt then I'll have the power to take revenge Look, you're not an avenger. Okay Hurt will not help you Give it to jesus that's step number two If it was caused by your own sin and this is something ask holy spirit to did I did I do this? Was this me? That's the time to repent. All right Not everything was caused by you, but some things that's where you say hey, I actually did that I was wrong. Sorry. That's a great place to do it third step Let the father restore you This is the father of the prodigal son.  This is our father Ask him to restore you and what I like to do is I like to say god. I have this I I felt so Wounded and so I felt so ashamed Okay God would you give me something in in replacement for that if it's shame? I'll ask for honor If it's fear I'll ask for peace If I don't know what to ask I'll ask holy spirit What should I ask for because I need something different than this And he'll tell you because he's good. He's real good. He gives good gifts. Take them Let the father restore you and then last Repeat this if you have to so this is what I do with people and we're going to do this in a minute If we have time hopefully yeah, well Ask the holy spirit To take you back to that place one more time hold his hand and walk there And ask yourself, what do I feel now? It's probably gonna be something different if you've felt Shame before you might feel anger now. Okay, let's go deal with the anger Let's follow holy spirit Give it to jesus receive from the father follow holy spirit. Give it to jesus receive from the father until you can go back to that place And you're free And then tomorrow when satan comes and attacks your soul And says And you're like, oh Okay, it doesn't mean you're not healed. It just means you're healing This is the process after you're healing you got to pursue god like your new drug And when the pain comes back You go at it with what god has given you you were healed by his stripes. You were healed body soul and spirit You were healed. This is what the bible says folks. It doesn't matter how you feel. It's just true And you how's yourself talk? Right. Are you saying oh, I don't know. I'm not sure I'm healed. Yeah, you are healed because that's what god said you are I'm not asking you whether you feel healed or not today. I'm asking you to receive from him and this is a process Follow holy spirit Ask jesus to take it Receive from the father Repeat it as often as you need every single day of your life Look, if you were thrown out of the house when you were three years old and lived on the street by selling yourself and living on drugs And all kinds of horrible stuff like that You can still get freedom and it might take every day for a year.  Okay Then it's time to Ask the holy spirit Would you show me a place where I'm hurt? Give it to jesus Receive from the father And if you having trouble doing this over there are people in this church who can help so, uh, maria if you'd stand up This is maria opat. She does a lot of inner healing work She can help Maria tells me that mostly teenagers come to see here because adults don't have problems Pride does not get any better when you get older. I'm sorry Look, I can help maria can help if you can't get to jesus on your own let somebody hold your hand But uh, if you will let's go ahead and close now. I'm gonna close with some prayer Father god I thank you that you've already taken care of all the stuff that we've gone through You're so good And we just receive it right now So holy spirit I ask you to guide us be our guide You know where the hurt really is And you know where the healing is And jesus You already died for this stuff We don't need it anymore. We want to give it to you And father We're asking you for new stuff in place of our old junk Give us new things We commit to be the people of god You've made us Because you love us and because you deserve it We give you all the honor And the glory And the praise In jesus name Amen Come on.   He is your father. He is your creator. He is your maker There's a void in your heart That you might have been seeking or trying to fill with other things But no one can feel it outside of him Because like I said, he is your father. He is your maker. He's your creator and without him that for That void in your heart cannot be filled if that's you Either one category just lifts up your hand and we want to pray for you If that's you right now, this is the altar call for salvation We'll have a ministry time here in a bit But if you need to give your life to jesus if you need to make your life right with him At this moment, this is your moment. This is your time.  This is your moment This is your time. This is your opportunity to get right with god life is short Life is not promised to live out the fullness of days life can end in any moment at any time Make sure you are right with jesus make sure you are right with him So that your eternity is secured because it's the most important thing in your life in jesus name in jesus Right now we're gonna go into a son of worship if you need to do that If you need to give your life to jesus just come to my my right and we will pray with you in jesus name The rest of us if we can stand up Your soul healed there are things in your life That you feel like you're you're struggling to break through There's like the things that that mentioned things like quickly anger you Maybe there's certain things that trigger you that you get paranoid or or or you know There's hurts. There's bitterness and it's hard for you to go. Maybe you went through some rough childhood You got abused. Maybe you want you were in in some bad relationship that caused you pain caused you hurt And now your current current relationship is suffering because of it We're gonna we want to open this altar for you. We have a team that are well equipped to minister and help you Go through the process of healing Minister to your soul get you healed so that you can receive a physical healing because You've been in ministry for some time I've noticed one thing a lot of times Physical healing is tied to emotional wound If there's an emotional wound there's bitterness if there is unforgiveness if there's Emotional pain the trauma that you went through oftentimes it manifests itself in the fit in the physical wound Something's wrong with your body constantly getting sick You go from one sickness and sickness to another a certain chronic disease or Or sicknesses in your body and the moment I have seen the moment people begin to release their pain and their inner hurt Soon after they receive freedom and healing in their physical body And so if you're here in this place and this message was for you you you got certain things that undelt would come to the front We're gonna pray for you with a minister to you and we're gonna believe that god Will lead you to guide you to their process and bring you healing.

Allbright Yeah, sure what I mean just because I hold a slightly higher position in somebody else That don't make any difference to me. That's my idea of democracy Everybody is just as good as anybody else. Of course unless you're a millionaire Oh, well, what's so special about a millionaire?  Yes, but I wish you would call me Eddie Well, you know, I was thinking about you. I'm sponsored twice I mean, you're quite young to behold in the position of assistant manager of the big building like the Dunbar building Well, I started at the bottom, of course But there's little tricks and getting to the top just like in everything else. I wish I knew some well take me You know, I got where I am Remembering names and faces. That's all. Yes, sir. When I was just nearly an elevator operator You mean a little thing like that can get a little thing like that Listen, how do you suppose Jim Farley got where he is today? Where is he? I don't know where he is right now, but that's how he got to be postmaster general Just remembering names and faces just one little thing. That's all. Well, I don't know.  Kevin said that. Look at that. Well, maybe one two little things But that was the main thing. I'll take me for instance. Oh, I'm sorry, but you've got to keep your hands still Oh, that's okay. Milly forget it. But I was just trying to show you something in the paper. See this picture. Yeah Frankie the nose Maddox former New York gang to escape from Atlanta six months ago believed to be in city Oh, sure. I saw that this morning. Yeah, so did I and when I saw it I said to myself Eddie you Eddie all bright you've seen this guy somewhere before and just like that. I remember Oh, well, I bet I could remember an ugly mug like that Yeah, but suppose you only seen him three four times and it was two three years ago And he was always with a whole lot of other people You mean you know Frankie Maddox, no, but I took him up in my car That was when I was just nearly an elevator operator. I took him up three four times There's a rich guy named Ellen Jill isn't a penthouse on top of our billing and I took him up there And that was two three years ago, but right away. I remembered he called the faith Oh, I guess that is pretty good. All right. Sure. That's the kind of things that got me where I am Yeah, well some people are lucky I guess well I don't know but some people that are lucky like to share their luck with other people Quite sure I don't know what you mean. Well, take you and me for example, what maybe we could be lucky to get her I mean, maybe you and me could go out to dinner and your theater some night. Oh, gee, that'd be awful night Well, how about tonight tonight? Oh, well, I don't know. I well, I guess I could make it tonight Okay So this is where you spend all your time. Oh, hello, Alex Millie, I just remembered something important. I gotta go What's your hurry? You might at least introduce the little lady to your boss Mr. Garvey Say what's this guy been telling you? No, I know is it mr. O'bride here in Mr. Garvey's personal assistant in the Dunbar Is that what he told look Alex can I just oh Eddie? I'm ashamed.   No, look Millie I gotta go finish your hand mr. O'bride. Oh, no, he let's not be bitter Well, goodbye Wow, you can imagine how that made me feel I felt lower than the third baseman Oh, I made it worse. It was all true what I told Millie I'm all except the little part about being mr. Garvey's assistant, but I did remember faces I was going to get to the top. I was there already practically But all I could think of was how I could get even with that starter that Alex Hennison without having him finally and pretty soon he came back and I just didn't speak to him I didn't even look at him, but I can see him grinning all over that ugly pussy Every time he looks at me and then I see him looking serious and going over to talk to some guys It just came in that I recognize the plane closed it And then they separate to sort of hang around the lobby trying to look as though they aren't there And I figure I'll buy my time to get that on Alex. So pretty soon. I mosey over to where he is Well, if it isn't mr. Albright, okay, okay, you had your fun What are all the pigs doing in the lobby? Well now I wouldn't tell everyone but of course an important man like you Lay off can't you what's going on?

That's all And that job is coming up and I'm going to get it any day now. You'll see Millie give me a break. You said yourself. It didn't matter even if a guy was a millionaire I am a very democratic person. Mr. Allbright.
