And those who haven't yet subscribed our YouTube channel, please subscribe and do hit the bell icon button to get regular notifications regarding our content videos. Now, let's get into first news article discussion. Now, have a look at this news article. This news article talks about Norovirus. It is in news because, despite efforts taken to continue to spread, two school children in Ernakulam district of Kerala have been confirmed with Norovirus infection. So, in this background, let us understand what is this Norovirus infection? See, Norovirus is the term for a group of viruses that causes severe vomiting and diarrhea. It is very common and very easy to spread, meaning it is highly contagious. It can spread through infected people, contaminated food or contaminated surfaces. While many people call Norovirus as the stomach flu or the stomach bug, it has no relation to the flu, that is influenza. Yes, flu is caused by influenza virus and it is different from the Norovirus. Now, talking about the transmission, people can become infected with Norovirus in many ways. People with Norovirus illness can shed billions of Norovirus particles and only a few virus particles can make other people sick.  This is about transmission. Now, coming to the symptoms, Norovirus can make you feel very sick. Symptoms usually appear 12 to 48 hours after your exposure to the virus and it lasts for 2 to 3 days. These symptoms can appear suddenly and include nausea, throwing up, that is vomiting, then diarrhea, stomach cramps, headache, fever and body aches. This is all about symptoms. Now, talking about treatment, there is no treatment to cure Norovirus. But, you can take steps to ease symptoms while the virus runs its course. These include drinking plenty of liquids because the Norovirus infection causes heavy dehydration. In extreme cases, patients have to be administered rehydration fluids intravenously. Then, other steps include getting lots of rest and eating bland foods. This is about treatment. Now, talking about precaution, Norovirus often spreads quickly in closed places where many people gather such as schools, cruise ships and nursing homes. Most cases happen during the winter and early spring months. Some everyday precautions you can take to reduce your risk of getting the virus include washing your hands often with soap and water, then washing fruits and vegetables completely, and cooking seafood thoroughly. See, these are all some of the precautions that helps to reduce the risk of getting Norovirus infection. And that's all regarding this discussion. In this news article discussion, we saw about Norovirus infection, then we saw about how it is spreading, then we saw about the symptoms of the Norovirus. And finally, we saw some points regarding treatment and precaution measures. See, this topic is very much important for your film's exam because you may put a question regarding the symptoms and precaution and all. So make note of each and every point that we discussed. Now, with these key points in mind, let's move on to the next news article discussion. Now, look at this news article here. This news article is about one nation, one election. The government has been raising pitch for the idea of one nation, one election since a long time. And many parties are expressing opposition against this idea. And this news article is also about a similar opinion expressed by the Amadhvi Party. So in this context, let us try to understand about this idea of one nation, one election. Then we will also see why there is a need for such a system. And finally, we'll try to analyze advantages and disadvantages associated with one nation, one election. Okay. Now, before getting into discussion, the syllabus relevant to this discussion is displayed here. You can go through it. Now, first we'll start by understanding the idea of one nation, one election. We all know the last general election happened in 2019. The next election will be conducted in 2024. In between this time span, many state assembly elections happened. And in some states, it is going to happen in coming days. This idea of one nation, one election is about structuring the Indian election cycle in a manner where elections to the Lokshaba and the state legislative assemblies are synchronized together so that the elections to both Lokshaba and the state legislative assemblies can be held within a given span of time. Okay. So what is the need for synchronizing them? See elections are an integral part of a democratic state, but it comes with some costs and problems too. If you see until 1967, the cycle of a state and central elections was synchronized. But after that, many assemblies were dissolved before the tenure. So it disturbed this one nation, one election pattern. Due to these problems, there are elections happening every year. And again, the cost of these elections is also much higher. This keeps on increasing year on year due to inflation. For example, in 1952, the election cost was around 10.45 crore. But in 2014, it was 3800 crore. Can you notice this huge rise? It is immense. But this is only the cost of the election commission, excluding transportation, security, management, advertisement by parties and many more. According to a survey, in the last Lokshaba election, parties all over India spent approximately 7 billion US dollars. So the government felt that it would be helpful if the elections are synchronized. And the law commission has sought the views from various stakeholders on simultaneous elections. Although many parties have opposed the move, there are mixed opinions. So with reference to this, we will understand what are the advantages and disadvantages associated with one nation, one election. Now, first let's see about advantages. See firstly, the government officials do not have to leave their duty very often. As most of us are aware, it is usually the government officials who are employed as election officials. Of course, government officials are there to serve the people. But pulling them off their service, often for conducting elections, would hinder the functioning of public officers. So if we have simultaneous elections, government officials do not have to spare their time for every election. Also, it will reduce the burden on the administrative setup and security forces employed for the safe conduct of election. This is about the first advantage. And second advantage is that politicians do not have to focus on elections happening around the fires at different places. Rather, they will be focused on development. See, elector representatives get involved in election campaigning every time election happens. This keeps them away from doing their duty. So if you have simultaneous elections, the politicians will focus on other activities without caring so much about earning vote bank every now and then. This is about second advantage. Now, the third advantage is that financial crimes like exhaustion and corruption will reduce. Then the fourth advantage is that the political parties will enhance their work to influence the people as their next chance will be after a long wait only. It will also provide more time to all the stakeholders, that is political parties, election commission of India, paramilitary forces, and civilians for the preparation of election once in five years. Then lastly, much lesser costs will be incurred in managing elections together as I mentioned earlier. This is about advantages associated with one nation, one election. Now we will see what are the challenges associated with this process, that is the disadvantages. The first disadvantage is that regular elections around the tenure will force politicians to meet people often. So a one-time election will decrease their accountability to the people. Secondly, there would arise confusion among the voters. An election commission has to make voters aware of the new criteria but it is not easy to do that because people with low level of literacy will not be able to differentiate between the general election and assembly election. This is the second disadvantage. Thirdly, opportunity for regional parties would diminish as the national parties will dominate the election narrative. Apart from this, security threats will be raised at that time. This is because anti-national elements can turn it into an opportunity of creating havoc by misleading or misguiding the people. Then the other disadvantage is that many opposition parties argue that this is against the federal structure. Opposition parties feel that weaving elections from the prism of expense and not celebrating the greatness of democracy itself is wrong. This in turn would put additional burden on the election commission. Apart from this, to sing the term of state legislative assemblies with the tough Lokshaba, the term of the state legislative assemblies should be reduced and increased accordingly. Some governments may not be willing to give up their term. So what can be done about this? There are few opinions. We will see what are they. See in India, fixing the dates is not feasible because of the parliamentary form of government. So a radical solution is to switch to the presidential form of government. Or we can just choose to synchronize only the elections to the Lokshaba and the Lokshaba. That way we can save some expenditure. Before considering these options, we must have a deep study and deliberation on the idea in order to prevent any impact on the model code of conduct. Then there needs to be a consensus whether the country needs one nation, one poll or not. All political parties should cooperate in debating this issue. Once the debate starts, the public opinion can be taken into consideration. See India being a mature democracy can then follow the outcome of the debate. And that's all regarding this discussion. In this discussion we saw what is one nation, one election policy. Then we saw about the advantages and disadvantages associated with that. And finally we saw some options available to us. See this topic is very much important for your main exam. So make note of each and every point that we discussed. Now with these key points in mind, let's move on to the next news article discussion. Now look at this snippet article from the text and context page As we see itself in the title, there has been a decline in investments made via P-notes. The article says that investment in Indian capital markets through P-notes slightly dropped to Rs 96,292 crore at the end of December 2022 from the visiting month. This is about the article. In our discussion today, let us look at P-notes in detail. First of all, let us understand about P-notes. See the P-notes are financial instruments. Here P stands for participatory. The participatory notes are issued by foreign institutional investors. The P-notes are issued to foreign investors and hedge funds from investors who wish to invest in the Indian stock market without registering with SEBI, that is securities and exchange bud of India. Foreign investors prefer investing via P-notes because the P-notes have less regulatory oversight. This is because while the foreign institutional investors have to report all the investments made via P-notes each quarter to SEBI, they need not disclose the identity of the actual investors. So foreign investors invest via P-notes. Now let me explain the working of P-notes with an example. Let us assume that ABC Limited is a foreign institutional investors registered in SEBI. Since the foreign institutional investor is registered with SEBI, it can invest in Indian stock market. Let us say the ABC Limited buys stocks of companies X, Y and Z. This is the investment or financial portfolio of the ABC Limited. Here an investment portfolio is just a basket of financial assets. Now let us assume an imaginary foreign investor named Jeffrey Dahmer. Mr Dahmer wants to invest in Indian stock but he does not want to get registered with SEBI and reveal his identity. Now what Mr Dahmer will do is, he will contact ABC Limited and ask the firm to issue him an offshore derivative. Here derivative is basically a contract that derives its values from the performance of an underlying entity. So in our example, here the underlying entity is the investment portfolio of ABC Limited which is nothing but the stocks of companies X, Y and Z. So after Mr Dahmer's request, the ABC Limited will issue the offshore derivative to him. This offshore derivative is called participatory nodes. So finally as per Mr Dahmer's wish, he is investing in the Indian stock market without registering with the SEBI. And Mr Dahmer makes money when the price of underlying entity increase. That is when the price of the shares of companies X, Y and Z increases. This is about the working of participatory nodes. Also this is why the participatory nodes are termed as offshore derivative instruments. Having understood the basics, now let us see the advantages associated with participatory nodes. Firstly investing through participatory nodes is very simple. Due to this reason the P nodes are very popular amongst foreign investors. So India is receiving a lot of foreign investment via participatory nodes. Then secondly investments made through P nodes are beneficial to the Indian economy as they can provide quicker means of raising funds for the benefit of the companies listed in the Indian stock market. This is all about the advantages. Now let us see the issues associated with participatory nodes. First is the issue of money laundering. As we saw earlier, people investing in P nodes are not registered with the SEBI. So SEBI has no jurisdiction over participatory node trading. So the trade made via the participatory nodes is not recorded. Due to this only the officials are worried that the P nodes might be used for money laundering. Then the second issue is volatility. Since the trading of P nodes is not regulated by SEBI, the trade is very volatile. Meaning the investor can pull out their investment anytime. Due to this Indian rupee also become very volatile. Then the third issue is the loss of tax revenue to India. See if a foreign investor is investing in P nodes, the country in which the foreign investor resides will get tax amount that are related from the capital gains and the dividends of P nodes. Due to this India is losing tax revenue. Also some entities route their investments through participatory nodes to take advantage of tax loss that are available in certain countries. For example, if country X has fewer capital gains tax than India, even an Indian investor will route his money via country X to save on taxes. All these results in less tax revenue to India. See these are all some of the issues associated with participating nodes. Now finally let us see a few reasons why investments made via P nodes are currently on decline. The first reason is the US federal bank or the Fed's decision to increase interest rates. The Fed is increasing its policy rates to control inflation in the USA. Due to this the foreign investors are looking to invest in safe assets in the US rather than riskier assets in India. This is the main reason behind the recent decline in investments via P nodes. Then the second reason is the ongoing Russia Ukraine war. The war in Ukraine is making the investment climate in the entire world volatile. This is also one of the reasons why investors are pulling out of P nodes. See these are all some of the reasons why investments in P nodes is drying up. And that's all regarding this discussion and this discussion we saw about P nodes. Then how it is working. Then we saw about the advantages and disadvantages associated with P nodes. And finally we saw the reasons why investment P nodes are declining. Now with these key points in mind let's move on to the next news article discussion. Now look at this news article from the editorial page. It talks about a newly drafted digital personal data production bill 2022. This editorial does not contain provisions about the bill. Instead it highlights some of the issues associated with the bill. If you want to know about the important provisions of the bill then watch our 20th November 2022 analysis. Now in this discussion let us see the issues in the bill and we will also see some solutions to overcome the issues. But before getting into discussion the syllabus relevant to this discussion is given here you can go through it. First of all let us see in brief about what we are going to discuss. See in this discussion we are going to see the provision which makes mandatory parental consent for all data processing activities by the children. See the draft digital personal data production bill 2022 currently provides for mandatory parental consent for all data processing activities by the children. Here children are defined as any person aged under 18 years. But this approach has some issues. And the author is talking about issues regarding this only. Firstly she is saying that instead of asking the online platforms to build safer and better services for minors the bill relies on parents. Know that parents only have to grant consent on behalf of the child in all the cases. The issue here is that India is a country with low digital literacy. So as of now parents are only relying on their children to help them with the internet. So the provision which requires the consent of the parent is ineffective right. We have seen this in our homes itself. Parents only will ask us to create an account in some app or in some cases they don't even know how to operate smartphone. So how will they be able to grant consent in this condition? This is what the issue according to the author. Secondly the provision does not take into account the best interests of the child. The best interest of the child is a standard originated in the convention on the rights of child 1989. Comment below in the comment section whether India is a signatory to this convention on rights of child 1989 or not. The best interest of the child should be taken into account when statutes are formed. Know that India too had up to the standard in laws such as the commissions for production of children rights act 2005. Then secondly the right of children to free and compulsory education act 2009 and the production of children from sexual offenses act 2012. But now according to author the standard was not taken into account in the data production bill. Why is she saying like this think about it now. Teenagers also comes under the category of child right and for what they use the internet they use internet platforms for self-expression and personal development right. Their usage ranges from taking music lessons to preparing for exams. They also use these platforms to form communities with people of similar world views. Some are using it to build a career. You have seen many teenagers doing log and posting it on YouTube and earning money right. See the provision of mandatory consent from the parents is misguided because Instagram is seen as a social media platform and chatting means by the parents. But it is regularly used as an educational and professional development tool by million of artists around the world. So because of this the author is saying that the bill did not take into account the standard of the best interests of the child. Thirdly another issue in the bill is that each platform will have to obtain verifiable parental consent in the case of minors. To implement this provision the internet service providers should confirm whether a user is minor or not. For this they have to verify the age of the user. For this verification of age the government will prescribe later some proofs that will be accepted for the verification of age. This may include any ID proof or facial recognition or reference based verification. But think about it now. If ID proofs and facial recognition are used then it means the service providers have more personal data with them. And without any proper data production measures this will lead to harms such as data breaches, identity thefts etc. So the citizens will be at more risk because of this provision. See these are the major issues pointed out by the author in the editorial. So what can be done according to the author there is a need for shift in approach. The author is saying that when it comes to laws with respect to children we should think differently. That is what applies to other categories can be applied to child category or not. If all are treated equally then it would be like treating unequals equally. Secondly we should move from the child side to the platform side. Sounds confusing right? I will explain it. We are using options for tracking and monitoring the children's usage of internet. But instead we should adopt a risk-based approach to platform obligations. So the internet platforms should be mandated to undertake a risk assessment for minors. They should be mandated to design services with default settings and features that product child from home. This will bring in an element of co-regulation. It can be done by creating incentives for platforms to design better products for children. The thirdly the author is saying that we need to relax the age of mandatory parental consent for all services to 13 years. Now what is the advantage of this? If we relax the age for consent requirements then it will automatically minimize data collection. What does this mean? This means less personal data collection. So there would be no worries about data theft. Fourthly the author is saying that the government should conduct large-scale surveys of both children and parents. This survey is to find out about the parents as well as children's online habits, digital literacy, preferences and attitudes. This will help in drafting the bill which is more suitable for the Indian scenario. Finally the author is saying that there should be a policy in India that balances the safety and the agency of children online. Parents alone should not near the burden of keeping the children safe. Instead it should be made a society-wide obligation and this societal obligation should be included in the data production framework. This is because we need the young minds for our country to make India as a digital India. And that's all regarding this discussion. In this discussion we saw about the contented provision in the draft digital personal data production bill. Then we saw water issues associated with that particular provision. And finally we saw some solutions to address the issues in the provision. Now with these key points in mind let's move on to the next news article discussion. See this news article here as 2024 marks the completion of 100 years of Vaikom protest. Two representatives of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister visited the Tande Periyar Memorial at Vaikom in Kota M Kerala. This article says that the visit is part of plans to celebrate the completion of 100 years of the Vaikom protest. So in this background let us understand what is this Vaikom Satyagraha or Vaikom protest. Now let's start with the background of the Vaikom Satyagraha. According to the prevalent class structure low caste Hindus were not allowed to enter the temples. In Kerala they were not allowed even to steer on the roads that led to the temples. In 1923 at a congress party meeting in the Kakinada report citing the discrimination faced by the repressed class in Kerala was presented by T.K. Madhavan. It was after this session the movements against untouchability got promoted. A committee was formed in Kerala comprising people of various castes to fight untouchability. Know that K.K. Lappan was chairman of the committee. The other members of the committee include T.K. Madhavan, Vela Yudhamenan, K. Neela Kanten Nambodri and T.R. Krishnaswamy Ayer. In February 1924 they decided to launch a Kerala parade. So as to urge temple entry and also the proper use of public roads for each Hindu regardless of caste or creed. So this is about the background of the Vaikom Satyagraha. Now we will learn about the course of the movement. The Vaikom movement was started on March 30th 1924. The foremost objective of the movement was the opening up of four public highways leading to Mahadeva temple at Vaikom which were closed to marginalized castes. The Satyagrahis made the batches of three people together and entered the temple. They were registered and arrested by the local police. Then the movement gained prominence within the entire India and support came from far and wide. Gandhi, Shri Narayana Guru and Chathampi Swamigal supported the movement. Nakalis of Punjab supported the movement by fixing kitchens to supply food to the Satyagrahis. Even when Muslim and Christian leaders were in support of the movement. Gandhi was not entirely happy with this as he wanted the movement to be an intra-Hindu affair. On Gandhi's advice, temporarily the movement was taken back in April 1924. After the failure of discussions among Hindus, the leaders again started the movement. Leaders like K. P. Keshav Menon and T. K. Madhavan were arrested. Know that E. V. Ramesh Aminoyakar, who is the father of modern Tamil Nadu, traveled from Tamil Nadu to support the movement. He was arrested too. On 1st October 1924, a team of so-called upper caste called Savarnas moved forward during a procession and submitted a petition to the resident Maharani, Seethu Lakshmi Bhai of Travancore. The petition had about 25,000 signatures for allowing entry to the temple for everybody. Gandhi ji also met with the resident Maharani. Remember, the procession was led by Mannath Padmanaban from beginning with approximately 500 people at Vaikom. The amount increased to 5,000 approximately when the procession reached Tiruvananthapuram in the month of November 1924. On 23rd November 1925, except for the eastern gate, all the gates of Mahadeva temple were opened to Hindus. In 1928, backward castes got the right to move on public roads in the vicinity of all temples in Travancore. So, this became the primary time that an organized movement was being conducted on such a huge scale for the essential rights of the untouchables and the other backward castes in Kerala. As a result of the movement, in November 1936, the Maharaja of Travancore issued a proclamation throwing open all government control temples to all Hindus irrespective of caste. That's all regarding this discussion. This discussion we saw about the background of the Vaikom Satyagraha, then we saw about the course of Vaikom Satyagraha. As I said earlier, 2024 marks the completion of 100 years of Vaikom protest. So, we may expect a question in films or regarding Vaikom Satyagraha. So, make note of each anniversary points that we discussed in this article. Now, with these key points in mind, let's move on to the next news article discussion. Now, look at this image here. It says that the armed forces participate in the largest biennial tri-services amphibious exercise named Ampex 2023. It is given that the exercise was conducted near Kakinada in Andhra Pradesh. This is about the information given in this image. So, using this as an opportunity, now we are going to see some facts about the Ampex 2023. As we already saw, this Ampex exercise is a biennial exercise. What does this mean? It means the exercise is happening once in every two years. The last time it was happened in the year 2021 and it was in Andhra Pradesh. Now, in 2023, it is happening in Andhra Pradesh. Remember these facts, okay?  What does this mean? This means that Ampex involves all the three services namely the Indian Army, Indian Air Force and the Indian Navy. Now, what is the purpose of this exercise? Ampex 2023 includes complex activities in all domains, that is Navy, Army and Air Force. These complex activities will help in attaining a high level of preparedness and coordination among the three services. This preparedness and coordination is needed to undertake the full spectrum of amphibious operations. You all know what is the meaning of amphibious right? It involves operations both on land and in water, that is none other than oceans. Now, some of the operations include the employment of amphibious assault ships, then surveillance platforms, then execution of maritime airstrikes, then complex manures at sea, then airborne insertion of marine commanders of Navy and Special Forces of the Army, then naval gunfire support and finally amphibious landing of forces and follow-on operations. This is about the operations. Now, let us see the final part, which is the significance of this Ampex exercise. Firstly, as we already saw, it helps in preparing and coordinating all the services of our country in times of emergencies. Secondly, the exercise serves as a platform for testing the working of our defense equipment in all the three services. Thirdly, such an exercise is very important to drive out military progress of China in the Indian Ocean. That is all regarding this discussion. In this discussion, we saw about Ampex 2023 exercise, then we saw about the purpose of this exercise and finally, we saw some significance associated with such exercise. Now, with these key points in mind, let us move on to the next news article discussion. See this article here. Yesterday, our President, Draupadi Murmu conferred the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Prashkar 2023 on 11 children. These 11 children includes one child with a rare bone disorder, who is now an accomplished singer and a youngster who jumped into a river to save the life of a woman. So, in this background, let us understand a few facts about the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Prashkar. The Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Prashkar was formerly known as the National Child Award for Exceptional Achievement. It is a civil honour bestowed upon exceptional achievers. The award was instituted by the Ministry of Women and Child Development in 1996 to recognize child with exceptional abilities and outstanding status in various fields like academics, arts, culture, design, innovation, research, social service and sports. The award is conferred by the President of India in the week preceding the Republic Day, where the nation's other prestigious civil honours like the Bharat Ratna, Padma Yubushan, Padma Bhushan and Padma are also presented. The award is also participated in the Republic Day Parade. Now, who selects the name of the award is? See a National Selection Committee headed by the Minister of Women and Child Development will finalize the name of the award is for the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Prashkar. Know that the awards are given under two categories that is Bal Shakti Prashkar and Bal Kalyan Prashkar. Bal Shakti Prashkar is given by the Government of India every year to recognize exceptional achievement of children in various fields that is innovation, scholastic achievements, social service, arts and culture, sports and bravery. It was instituted in 1996 as the National Child Award for exceptional achievement which got renamed from 2018 as Bal Shakti Prashkar. Now talking about the eligibility of this award, a child who is an Indian citizen and residing in India and he or she should be between 15 to 18 years of age. Know that a medal and a cash price of Rs 1 lakh will be awarded along with book vouchers, worth Rs 10,000, a certificate and a citation. This is all about Bal Shakti Prashkar. Now talking about Bal Kalyan Prashkar, see it is given as recognition to individuals and institutions who have made an outstanding contribution towards service for children in the field of child development, child production and child welfare. It was instituted in 1979 as the National Child Welfare Awards which got renamed from 2018 as Bal Kalyan Prashkar. Now talking about the eligibility, an individual who is an Indian citizen and residing in India and he or she should have attained the age of 18 years or above as on 31st August of respectively year. Then he or she should have worked for the cause of children for not less than 7 years. This is about the eligibility criteria to individual. Now talking about the eligibility criteria for institution, the institution should not be entirely funded by the government and the institution should have been in the field of child welfare for 10 years and performing consistently in that field. Know that three awards are given in each of the two categories that is individual and institution categories along with cash prices and that's all regarding this discussion. In this discussion we saw about Pradhan Mantri Rashtri Bal Prashkar awards then we saw about the two categories that is Bal Shakti Prashkar and Bal Kalyan Prashkar. Now with these key points in mind let's move on to the next news article discussion. Now look at this news article here it says that yesterday the fifth scorpion class conventional submarine that is INS Vagir was commissioned into the Indian Navy at the naval dockyard in Mumbai. Now in this context let us learn about the scorpion class submarines. To understand about the scorpion class submarines of India first we should know about Project 75. See in the year 1999 the cabinet committee on security approved a 30 year plan to indigenously build and induct 24 submarines by 2030. So in the first phase two lines of production were to be established. The first is Project 75 and the second is Project 75 I. So this line was to produce six submarines each. Now Project 75 includes the indigenous construction of six diesel electric attack submarines of Scorpion design. The submarines are being constructed at Massagon dock shipbuilders limited in Mumbai. This is in collaboration with the naval group of France. This would provide a major boost to the indigenous design and construction capabilities of submarines in India. In addition to this it will bring in the latest submarine design and technologies as part of the project. Now under Project 75 INS Kalwari, INS Kandheri, INS Karnaj and INS Vela have been commissioned. Yesterday Vagir was also commissioned. Know that INS Vaksir is the sixth and it is yet to be commissioned. And as I earlier told you these are of Scorpion design. Now we will learn about the Scorpion class submarines. See the Scorpion class submarines are one of the most advanced conventional submarines in the world. It is capable of undertaking multifarious missions including anti-surface, ship warfare, anti-submarine warfare, intelligence gathering, mine laying and area surveillance. This class of submarines have diesel electric transmission systems and these are primarily attack submarines or hunter killer types which means they are designed to target and sink adversary naval vessels. Also the submarines have superior stealth features. Here note that the submarines have an estimated endurance of approximately 50 days that is they can remain submerged underwater for around 50 days without surfacing. Then their weapon systems are capable of firing torpedoes and anti-ship missiles. The first submarine of this class that is the INS Kalwari was commissioned in December 2017. That is why sometimes we call this as Kalwari class submarines so don't get confused. Now finally we will understand some important features of INS Vagir. This submarine gets its name from the S-12 Vagir which was a submarine that served the Navy between 1973 and 2001 where it undertook numerous operational missions. Vagir will boost the Indian Navy's capability to further India's maritime interests. Unlike most other Scorpion class submarines, INS Vagir is also capable of undertaking diverse missions including anti-surface warfare, anti-submarine warfare, intelligence gathering, mine laying and surveillance missions. INS Vagir would form a part of the western naval command. It has advanced stealth features and long range guided torpedoes as well as anti-ship missiles. Note that Vagir has the distinction of having the lowest build time all indigenously manufactured submarines still date. That's all regarding this discussion. In this discussion we saw about Project 75, then we saw about Scorpion class submarines and finally we saw some features of INS Vagir. Now with these key points in mind let's move on to the next part of the news article discussion that is to discuss preliminary practice questions. Now look at this first question. This question is regarding no-row virus. Two statements are given. We have to find which of the given statements are incorrect. Look at this first statement. A person can be infected with different varieties of no-row virus several times in their lives but developing immunity to one type does not provide production against other varieties. Yes this statement is correct. The immunity developed because of one type does not provide production against other varieties. So statement one is correct. Coming to the second statement. The virus can affect people across all age groups. This statement is also correct. Remember no-row virus can affect people across all age groups but it's known to cause serious symptoms in children, the elderly and people with comorbidities. Comorbidity means more than one disease or condition is present in a person at the same time. See comorbidities are common among adults with arthritis. So statement two is also correct. Now the question is asking for incorrect statement. Here both statements are correct. So the correct answer for the question is option D neither one nor two. Moving on let's take up the second question. This question is regarding ampex exercise. Four options are given. We have to find which option is related to ampex exercise. Now look at this first option. An annual exercise involving the special forces of India and America. See this option is wrong because this option defines Vajraprahar exercise. See Vajraprahar is an annual exercise which is hosted alternatively between special forces in India and the United States. So option one is wrong. Now coming to the second option an exercise involving the air forces of India and Russia. See this option is also incorrect because this option defines exercise Avayendra. See Avayendra is an air force level exercise between India and the Russian Federation. So option B is also wrong. Now coming to the third option a biennial exercise involving the tri-services of India. See this option only is the correct answer as we saw in the discussion ampex exercise is a biennial exercise that is held once in two years and it involves the tri-services of India. So the correct answer for the question is option C. Moving on let's take up the third question. This question is a previous question which was asked in Prelims 2021. This question is regarding Bharathrathana and Padma awards. Now look at this first statement. Bharathrathana and Padma awards are titled under Article 18-1 of the Constitution of India. See this statement is incorrect because national awards such as Bharathrathana, Padma Vibhushan, Padma Bhushan, Padma Shree do not amount to titles within the meaning of Article 18-1 of the Constitution and they are not to be used as prefixes or suffixes to the name of the recipient in any manner. Know that Article 18-1 abolishes all titles. It prohibits the state to confer titles on anybody whether a citizen or a non-citizen. Note one point here military and academic distinctions are however exempted from the prohibition. Thus a university can give title or honor on a man of merit. So statement one is incorrect because Bharathrathana and Padma awards do not amount to titles within the meaning of Article 18-1. Now coming to the second statement Padma awards which were instituted in the year 1954 were suspended only once. See this statement is also incorrect because Padma awards were instituted in 1954 to be awarded to citizens of India in recognition of their distinguished contribution in various space of activity. The government suspended the practice of granting the Padma awards for two years in 1977. It was again suspended during mid-1992 when two PALs were filed in the High Courts of India. Know that Padma awards are given in three categories that is Padma Bhushan for exceptional and distinguished service then Padma Bhushan for distinguished service of Hyderabad and finally Padmasheri which is given for distinguished service. So statement two is incorrect because Padma awards were suspended many times and not only once. Now coming to the third statement the number of Bharathrathana awards is restricted to a maximum of five in a particular year. See this statement is also incorrect because a maximum of three people can be awarded the Bharathrathana. The total number of Padma awards to be conferred each year is limited to 120 but the count excludes posthumous awards and any non-resident Indian or overseas citizen of India are foreign based winners. Remember this fact so statement three is incorrect because the number of Bharathrathana awards is restricted to three in a particular year. Now the question is asking for incorrect statement all the three statements are incorrect so the correct answer for the question is option D one two and three. Now coming to the final question this question is regarding INS Waghir. Look at this first statement INS Waghir is India's first indigenous nuclear powered ballistic missile capable submarine. In the second statement INS Waghir is named after an island fort built by Chathrabadi Shivaji. In the third statement INS Waghir is Indian Navy's largest aircraft carrier and warship. See if you see the statements one and three they contradict each other one says it is a submarine and three says it is an aircraft carrier so one and three cannot come together therefore we eliminate option B. If you know that INS Arihant is India's first indigenous nuclear powered ballistic missile capable submarine then you can eliminate the options A, B and C and arrive at the answer D. So the correct answer for the question is option D none of the above and know that INS Kandheri has been named after island fort built by Chathrabadi Shivaji which played a key role in his Navy and it is not INS Waghir. So that's why the statement two is incorrect. Now coming to the third statement INS Vikramaditya is the Indian Navy's largest aircraft carrier and warship converted from the russian Navy's decommissioned admiral Gorshow or Baku and it is not INS Waghir so statement three is also incorrect therefore once again the answer for the question is option D none of the above and this is the quiz question for you today I will post this quiz question in the community section try to answer it and don't worry the answer for the quiz question is posted in the comment section of the quiz question itself you can verify it and displayed here are the main questions for your practice go through the questions write your answers and post it in the comment section with this we came to the end of the video if you liked our analysis please like comment and share and don't forget to subscribe to Shankar eyes academy youtube channel thank you for listening


What is up, guys? Wanted to do a quick video updating you on what is up with my life, as well as give you a quick summary of an amazing workshop that I've attended yesterday by one of my amazing clients. So with me, things are going really awesome focusing on Israeli clients. Mostly I'm helping lots of people build landing pages, market themselves on Facebook, add words and create just aggressive marketing campaigns. They get quick, very big results. I'm also giving lectures on a weekly basis, very fun, very challenging and very, very rewarding. Now regarding what I learned, one secret, one tip that will completely change your life by a client of mine who is a PhD psychologist and a second degree neurologist and a biologist, just an amazing, amazing person taught me yesterday about self-hypnosis and how our brain, based on its beliefs, creates different physical realities and physiological realities. So apparently the way you believe certain things are will actually affect your biology and that is shown by how they took people with, for example, knee problems, they gave them knee surgery but it was fake. They just opened their knees, just did a cut, closed it and then did nothing and they told them they fixed their knees and apparently out of 150 people that they've done that to, about half of them had long sustaining improvements. So say, oh, my problem is gone. So that's just one amazing example of how placebo affects and what you believe not only changes your reality from an internal place or an external place, but also it literally changes your physiology. So what we've been taught is how to get into self-hypnosis. Now you do that by calming yourself down, sitting very straight, very relaxed and just breathing all the way in and breathing out or you can imagine yourself in an elevator just going down and feeling yourself going down gently or just imagine yourself walking downstairs and what happens when you relax enough, your brain waves go to what's called beta waves. You can check that out on Google and most of the time our brain waves go something like this and it's really, really fast and you're not receptive to new messages.   You actually rewire your brain to have new connections that are related to that thing that you're imagining and you wanna imagine it like in first person and really just kind of be there and it's amazing. Like I've just started doing this yesterday and already things that I imagined started happening for me. Like I started seeing physical results in my body and in my experience and this is absolutely amazing. Things from sex to cold calls to people. So it's pretty damn cool. So if you have any questions about that feel free to check it out and ask me about self-hypnosis. If you're interested in my book, my autobiography of basically the crazy journey I've had with many, many adventures and the lessons I've learned along the way message me about that or comment. Everything is in the links below. So thanks for checking out my video. I hope to update you soon again and I'll see you soon. So thanks for watching and remember take massive action every day and you'll start seeing really cool things happen. So bye-bye.


What's up everybody Jason here for draftsbycasebrates.com 2022 Panini Chronicles draft picks football four box break picker teams number eight Just sold out and again guys free box giveaway So you buy two teams you get an entry by four teams you get two entries six teams gets you three entries Just remember guys no checklists is out yet anywhere So just remember that some teams may not be represented But most likely just not represented in autographs Remember but those teams are still being sold for a chance of the promo and a lot of these teams Like I said are as little as 1099 1299 So it gives you that opportunity to win that hundred fifty dollar box Okay, guys all card ship and we're gonna go by current team is active team they played for the longest if they are retired I do have the Wikipedia page right there and I'll drop the link right here for you guys There will be a couple of undrafted players that we've seen so far as repeats Which of course I think for the most part we have to look those up and if they were undrafted or unsigned at all and It'll go to an all non-nfl team if it did a lot For customers and Brody got this done guys got like the last like seven or eight teams All right, so I have four boxes here to the left four boxes to the right again Pikachu number five is tying to a filler that hasn't sold out yet So the remaining four boxes that we don't use here will be used for Pikachu number five So here you go guys good luck Three one two three, so we're gonna use that one this right here will be for Pikachu number five Starts off with a little Carson Palmer Which I know he's played for a handful of teams, but I still think Cincinnati might be the longest team you played for But we'll double-check that of course Yeah, with Josh Jacobs for the ratus. Maybe to a tug of I loa tonight, you know Drake London to 25 and over here Brody saying Drake London was a redemption Whoo, look at that man. So again Drake London was a top-ten pick Atlanta Falcons Brody, we have a Sam Hal to 149 Trey McBride to one 99 was up right now at the end Jamison Williams to 99 and Sean McGrew, which I know he's actually not a NFL affiliate player. So definitely gonna be randomizing that So put a non NFL for this one Cardinals for Trey McBride Easy is Nick and of course Atlanta first box in the books Pierce Damian Pierce Chad Johnson Brian Robinson junior Matt Correll nice patch autograph to 99 Where did Matt Correll get drafted? Carolina, that's right You have Sam Darno down Matt Correll and Baker made fit over there Last Bob Mojo Brody another Matt Correll right there to 49 Trey McBride Which we've hit him already John and Taylor and Jack Jones Jack Jones is a New England Patriot Trey McBride Was Arizona and then Damian Pierce is a Houston Texan Which is Justin all right next box and I hit this though Jim, right at least something I'm pretty sure Carson Palmer played for the Bengals along He was there for like five six years. I think before he retired slash Right. He was drafted what 2001 2002. He was there for like six years Actually, you know what let's look that up. Did you guys look it up? I'm pretty sure. Yes. Carson Paul was seven years Arizona was five so that came pretty close actually so seven years in sincey Arizona five years Still carved out a pretty decent career though, right? I mean like 14 years in the league Well, yeah, it's team. They played for the longest so it's it's the Bengals. I just looked it up Zemir White if it's not years and the tiebreaker goes to games if it's like you tighten years and it goes to games uh Zemir Las Vegas, right?  Wow Kenneth Walker is a you talk about Kenneth. Why is a Seahawk? Dawson is a Washington I don't know who you're talking about can he pick it Brody for Pittsburgh a Kyron Williamston 99 in the zone auto zone But Kyron Williams that is a running back for the Los Angeles Rams Rams that is Sean Josh Allen for the bills and Cole Turner Tighten for the Washington Commanders Down on the last box here folks. Good luck So after this we'll do the randomizer for the box giveaway and then we'll do the randomizer for the non NFL I said we're not NFL affiliated teams And it looks like the next definitive is already down to six left to as well guys Justin Ross, which I believe is a Kansas City Chief, right?  Wondale is a second round pick for the Giants Right, I'm not tripping on right there wasn't a redemption at all. No Kendrick prior Kendrick prior Cincinnati bangles it looks like Kendrick prior signed as a free agent.  It's a nice one there for sentencing All right guys and there you go that was the break so again We still have four boxes left in this case it is tied in with the filler So at some point you did today or tomorrow, we'll definitely do that But some nice nice hits the pop that are here that nice Drake London as well And this was the only non NFL licensed one or not if I'm not licensed but not NFL affiliated team at a Corral Drake London What a nice stuff still pop So they go appreciate it and again if there is any base rookie anything like that It's gonna go to the non NFL license or not if all affiliated teams and it'll go in one lot with including that autograph so let's Get the customer names that bought two or more teams to do the giveaway and then we're gonna Randomize just the customer team. Sorry, and then a team a number one gets all the non NFL affiliated players And then let's see who got two or more So Brody went ham and got six entries Diego with two Eric with two. So that's one each James Harden with one Jimmy Harden with one Jerry with one Jim with one Jim. You only had one Joseph with two Justin with one can Nick Ronaldo with one Sean with one entry and Steve Travis Victor. All right. So there you go out of the possible 16 we have 11 so better odds right there. Let's roll it Got ourselves a Five in a two seven times You have two My list doesn't say to I can double check that before I start let me see oh Wait, are you James Harden? Is that you? Oh, wait, that is you you just use two different names Okay, I'll give you that entry. I See your orders It's the same shipping address and everything. Sorry about that. Well next time just use the same name I don't want like Joe to think it wasn't that Sorry, all right, let's put you right here Apologies It's wild. I usually don't assume it. It's it's the same person because honestly We have one customer his name's Anthony both of their names are Anthony's and both of their last names are the same But they're not the same person. They're both cousins So it's like we have to We have to differentiate them by state, but no, it's all good. No worries. No worries.
