What's up? What's up? What's up? How are we doing everybody? I'm gonna give a couple of minutes for everybody to To come on board here with me today, but welcome to the live stream if you're watching on a replay welcome Today, I'm gonna make live calls. I'm super stoked. I love doing these call sessions for you Real quick You know Coal calling circle prospecting is kind of how I've built my business It's it's really what I believe in but more than that. I believe in a couple of things I'm gonna get into it in just a second after everybody kind of logs in can you guys hear me? Okay, give me a thumbs up I'm gonna give it a couple minutes. I changed my My scenery here. I'm in my conference room. I got the gray background. I got lights So I'm trying to up my game a little bit for you guys And I normally it's a little darker in my office there But it is real in there. You know what I mean? Cool. Cool. You guys can hear me good Give a couple minutes for everybody to log on So I'm gonna be calling in a building here I Used red X red X geo leads to find the the phone numbers and I'm gonna use their storm dollar to call them I don't care what system you use. You know mojo coal. I don't care what you use I just believe that red X is the best. That's what I use I've I've used them all and I know a lot of agents who have used all of them as well and The consensus is That we like the red X data better and since they came out with their dialer. It's really cool. I really enjoy it I did I was using the mojo dialer and You know, it's it's very Very similar as far as accountability and and dependability so I've been enjoying that. Let's see. Okay, we got some people watching and give a few more minutes There's two things. I really believe in here guys and that is if you want to build a Business right if you want to everybody in real estate is trying to figure out how to build a business and what to do You know, there's so many things or so many people telling you what they think you should do and do this and do that and spear of influence and Social media and all this stuff and really the bottom line is this Talking to new property on property owners that you've never talked to ever before in your life every day and Talking to people that you've talked to recently that that are that seem interested in doing something soon If you're on the phone or in person if you're talking to people either on phone or in person all day long and You're concentrating on talking to people. We've never talked to before asking what in the world you can do for them And following up with people who said they might be interested in doing something then you're going to succeed Right if you do those two things Now I take it a step further and I want to stay relevant with everybody in my database So I send a weekly email out every week on the same day of the week forever Right, that's what keeps me relevant. That's been so huge for me So making these calls making the connection staying relevant with my weekly email That's been my system that's worked for me And I just want to share it with you guys so that you can take bits and pieces of it You might not like the weekly email. You might want to do your own thing You might like the cold calls, but use something else to stay in touch with them You might love the email, but you don't like doing the cold calls You know, I think at the end of the day The agents that make the calls or the agents who's going to make it through a crash if we have a crash I'm not saying we're gonna have a crash I don't care if we have a crash because I will just continue to Contact and connect with people see what I can do to help them Connect with them long term and just continue growing and accumulating clients. That's what this thing is all about Cool, I think we had everybody that's coming on. I'm fixing to start this thing up. So I I'm calling a complex. Okay, so I have my comps here All right up here. I've got what is sold the most recent sales down here is what's available Okay There's about 250 units in this complex and there's about 15 units for sale So there's a lot of units for sale in the complex I didn't realize that when I started when I thought about doing this Which is fine. That's fine, but I have a really I have the lowest price three bedrooms There's one bedroom two bedrooms and three bedrooms in this complex And I've got the lowest price three bedroom out of five three bedrooms for sale It's actually lower price than the last three or four sales that have sold Okay, so on this sheet of paper I've got the number like oh one oh two like one oh one one or two one or three one or four all the way to 817 and I've got under it how many bedrooms are in each of those so like if I'm calling and I'm talking to somebody who's in say 808 I can look at my eight and I know that they're in a three bedroom Okay, so that's how I kind of make a quick reference where I know what's going on I Can I can reference really quickly and know How many bedroom and then I can gauge who I'm talking to as far as what they own how much it's worth so on and so forth I also have how many listings for one bedrooms with the high and the low is for two and three bedrooms And also the recent sales right there even though also have it right here I've got another quick reference right here to where I got everything I need right here boom, okay? All right, so I'm about to get this thing started I'm gonna switch over to The storm dialer and get this thing going you guys can ask questions. I'll be watching the comments I might answer questions in between calls Let's see if I got any real quick. Are you calling landline and mobile phones? Yes call everybody every phone number you have Thanks for the feedback this morning. You're welcome, man All right cool cool cool all right great great here we go I'm gonna get the dialer up and running Give me just a second to do that Bear with me guys bear with me Get it all set up Yes, I see the question about MLS.

It's all there I tell you step by step how I'll do everything Here we go Hey, mr. Kilmer, it's Ricky Carew three max of orange Beach Give me a ring back when you get a chance here two five one seven five two eleven thirty eight. Thank you Yeah, guys. I'm doing single line. Hold on CP answers They didn't answer going to the next one Hey, miss withers Hey, this is Ricky Carew down at remix of orange Beach. How you doing? Yeah, yeah, we're getting some great weather unlike the people up there on the East Coast today I Know yeah, I know I know I'm glad it didn't come here though Hey, I didn't want to take up too much of your time, you know, so real estate down here I've got a the lowest price three bedroom over at Phoenix five and I didn't know if there's anything I didn't know if there's anything in the world I could do for you. I Got you. I got you. What about buying something? Come on Yeah Got you got you Well, is there an agent down here that you guys would work with if something were to happen and you needed to buy or sell something Yeah Well, look, I mean, I'd love to stay in touch Okay, that's what I'm saying you got plenty of time. All right. Have a good day. Yes, ma'am Let's see All right before I go to the next call We'll see the background is actually the wall in my conference room. I am doing single-line dialer I've decided guys. I like single dial because it's just better quality because I get to leave a personal voicemail They don't get the the message of me saying hey, you know, it's Ricky. I'm in a bad spot.  I don't know. I've just decided that I'm gonna try this for a while I did triple line for so long and I kind of like the quality. I feel like I'm giving more quality Okay Yeah, after a good conversation, I want to send them something a card Henryd note a nice personal email. I switched from mojo to red X because I Love the red X data. And so I was already using red X data and then putting them in mojo. And so now I don't have to put them in mojo. I can just go straight From red X and hit the storm dialer and go. I don't have to I don't have to do that extra step. I Am get my numbers from geo leads red X Yeah, it does look it does look nice. I got lucky actually, but I have the lights so it's making it look good So I put notes for people I talked to that I think something's going on. That's about it Do I keep not her number to follow up? Nah? Not really. I got those. It's unlimited guys. You don't have to you don't have to you know, hang on every single client Yeah, I do have onyx, but that's only expired. All right back to the calls No headset because I want you guys to hear. I don't worry about do not call list I'm not trying to sell you anything I want to be your best friend. I'm a friend or family call Yes, 2000 is enough because any add-in the onyx expired stuff Hey Donna Ricky Careuth remix of Orange Beach give me a quick call give me a ring when you get a chance<PHONE_NUMBER> thank you How many hours and yeah the 2000 searches?  I might triple dial if it was a certain situation But still I'm kind of like you're already you're already being super efficient by using a dial or anyway Let's be efficient and high quality You know because if you miss that one person because they thought it was weird that there was some weird message from you saying you're not You know you're in a bad area you're calling back and then you call them back and they don't answer You lost that person when it could have been a client So I don't skip LLC's I call LLC's and businesses or whatever I Don't hardly get any callbacks. I think of voicemails as a branding tool If you have nothing else to do dial eight hours a day All right back to the cause Hey, it's Paul there Ricky Kuru Ricky Kuru Remax of Orange Beach Hey, Paul Ricky Kuru with remixing Orange Beach. How you doing? Yeah, I'm just enjoying the day man glad that storm went north of us there Got lucky really I was kind of worried about it. Hey, I didn't want to take it too much of your time I've got the lowest price three bedroom over at Phoenix five. I'll just call to see if there's anything in the world I could do for you Yeah, I know I know I'm just calling to see if there's anything I could do for you Okay, well do you have an agent down here that you would work with you were to do something? All right, good man. Well, look appreciate the time. Yeah. Bye. I like these Questions coming in. Let's see. What is on it's on X is a red X feature for expires if you get expired to get on X It's way better data Yes, a pre-recorded message would save time, but I can say their name and When you pre-recorded it has that little Staticky sound so, you know, I don't know that's that's you know Should you be calling at 8 a.m. I would I would start at 9. That's what I've always liked to do Ricky look like a kid at Christmas Ricky I live in Chicago suburbs been dying to get my feet wet All right, just looking for questions. Okay. No more questions your statements going to the next call Got a two bedroom. Hey, mr. Dumas. It's Ricky Karuth remix of Orange Beach Give me a ring back when you get a chance two five one seven five two eleven thirty eight I've got the lowest price three bedroom over at Phoenix five and I've just seen if there's anything in the world I could do for you talk to you soon Said I noticed you didn't push for their email. Yeah, because they both said they had an agent or the older lady You know, she was just not giving it up. You can just tell right You know you just got to kind of fill these situations out the other guy said that he definitely had a real estate agent so This Phoenix building they have a company that that handles it, you know, but there's a there's an agency that dominates in there So a lot of these people might have Might have, you know, somebody to have a relationship with more than other places So and also I called this building maybe a year ago It's how I got the listing and so I have talked to some of these people and they are getting my email So we may run into some of those Let's see. Okay Don't see any good voicemail Is my wife in real estate? Yes, but she does she's not active. She's my broker's assistant Do I find more beneficial to leave a voicemail than to just to try to contact them again? Yes I mean, you can do either one.  I can call unlimited people I don't have to try to hang on every single person, you know The trick is this is just to keep talking to people talk to people all day long Cool on to the next call So yeah, here we go Traumas for do this on a second number. Hey, is Mr. Dumas in? Yeah, you can you can have him call me back if you would This is Ricky Careuth Ricky and then C a R R U T H I'm with remax down here in Orange Beach, and it's<PHONE_NUMBER> Thank you So also I didn't mention it before but for those of you who are brand new to my channel or watching me for the first time Red X is what I used to do all this to call to find the numbers and all that stuff As you can see I'm talking to real people and I can just do this all day long But in the link in the description, there's a link that you can save $150 okay, it waves a startup fee Let's see love that. Let's see. What if we don't have the lowest price unit or any unit for sale in the complex What do we say? Oh, no So there's always a reason to call you can say hey, there's there's a unit for sale Like there is a house for selling your building didn't know if there's anything to do for happy a house right around the corner Just sold didn't know if there's anything to do to help you a house right around the corner Just went under contract and if there's anything to help you a two bedroom in your building just sold for 440 Didn't know if there's anything I do to help you it doesn't have to be your sale You just call about anything Red X is great red X as a game changer Absolutely red X is that this this dialer slash Geo lead, you know data, you know that comes to you with the with the you know in a split second This is the most exciting for me. This is more exciting than any other technology out there for real estate agents because Conversations the key to all closings and this is what puts you in front you could do so much damage With this it's it's crazy. I should spend 15 hours to look up a hundred numbers and dialing by hand and now you can look them all up and in a second and they Call them in an hour and a half What used to take me 15 hours now takes me an hour and a half I mean for you guys that haven't went through that like I have You don't appreciate it as much and know like how incredible it is On to the next on onto the next Get out of there That's definitely a doctor Making calls right now.

Let's get another one and another one One of six Two bedroom Hey, mr. McKay Yes, hey, it's Ricky Karuth remix of Orange Beach. How you doing? Oh? Man, I'm just enjoying the day glad that hurricane missed us Hey Yeah, man. Hey, I didn't want to take it too much of your time I got a phoenix five three bedroom for real cheap Didn't know if there's anything in the world I could do for you. I got you You want you want another one or you want to get rid of one or get another one the one I got for sale It's a 701. It's a three bedroom and he's asking for 89 There was a two bedroom that just sold for 440 So, you know, this guy really wants to sell so that's kind of why I'm calling around Yeah Right, I knew it was coming Yeah, do they have they set an assessment yet?  McKay. Do you have an agent? Right Well, uh, hey, do you have an agent down here that you deal with? So vent is it vent? Oh mark hug it mark huggins mark tamper Oh huggins. Yeah, I know huggins Hey, man, I appreciate talking to you man. Good good times Yes, sir. Same to you Ladybud. All right, so almost had one at least interested right that was good Let's see Thank you for being real about what really happens I see the value of single line today I kept getting a little frustrated when multiple calls picked up at the same time while triple dialing exact That's what I'm saying, man. Like the single dial you can be a lot more Quality right and so I'm all about the triple dial. I love the production that you can do that that that The opportunity there but on the flip side Every single prospect is worth 10 to 20 transactions to you over the life of your career that you that you begin that relationship with And if you lose one that's not losing that deal or that prospect That's losing 10 to 20 deals over your career and here's the kicker The people they refer to you have those 10 more deals that maybe they a couple or repeat business from the same person But then they refer some people to you those people are worth 10 to 20 deals So when you really think about it each prospect is worth 100 deals Right through the people they refer to you and they refer and then they're worth 10 to 20 deals And they're doing repeat business with you So when you really put pen to paper on this I think quality Is uh is what you really need to think about when you're when you're just when you're thinking about single versus triple Uh, let's see Do I ever feel burnt out on the calls? I've been making more calls with less results It feel burned out any tips on getting out of the funk it happens, man You just got to keep going you got to have a positive mindset positive energy And that'll flow through the phone to your prospects. They're going to feel it and you're going to have better results So you just have to know that that you just have to be personable Right and confident All right, let's see if I'm missing some of you guys's questions. Just come back and ask at the end Do ever recall red X numbers the second time through very rarely if it is it's like a year or two out because there's so many That I can call All right on to the next on on to the next Mallard So that's going to happen.

Thank you. Mr. Dumas See you buddy. Bye. Where are we at here? All right, I'll answer a couple questions. How are you getting these condo owners numbers redx when I try to search It only shows me office numbers Cyrus some of them they have some of them but Not all of them. So if they don't have a building that you're looking for maybe just go to another building, you know But if you just really want to do that building call redx and say hey What is up with this building because that's what I've done and sometimes it's a hit or miss They are working out the condo problem. They know they're working on it. They're trying to get it get it done but They probably have I want to say maybe 70 of the buildings in my area and um You cannot call all those, you know, I'm saying so and also You know Call some single family homes, you know, don't just concentrate on condo, especially if you can't find them take what you can get guys All right, but to answer your question. That's the answer Um, can you do that with someone else's listing or do you have to be? No, it doesn't have to be yours It's gonna be anybody's listing anybody's sale and you it could be under uh For sale by owner any of that stuff You could say a house down the road sold. I said this earlier in the video Um, you know houses listed houses for sale condos for selling your building and condo just sold your building Didn't know if there's anything I do to help you boom let's say How did I find all these investors not not sure what you mean there? What's up daniel? Uh, what number are you using to call rd my cell phone number? I'm gonna call me back right on my cell phone Not comfortable cold calling and disturbing them Okay I'm gonna survive through the market crash because I'm willing to do that Right and the thing is is my intent is good. I want to help them really bad And when they could feel that when I'm talking to them Then their attitude changes and some people will get it.  I'm gonna use the bathroom right quick All right 60 seconds done. All right Okay, let's see here All right back to the dialer Resume Lori that was 60 seconds for me That's my definition of 60 seconds No answer on that one Or could have been a bad number or something Coon mr.

She must have been one of the ones. I got the email For it started sending the weekly emails. I'm telling you guys This is the kind of stuff that happens when you're doing the weekly emails and you're making phone calls Everybody wants to know how do you sell so much stuff ricky?

And I'm telling you this is what I'm showing you guys exactly what I do day in and day out I talk to people all day long and see what I could do to help them and good things happen Connect long term so many people have changed their businesses The real estate businesses and probably other businesses from just the one thing that I'm sharing what the world which is Get away from do you want to buy or sell and change that replace it with is there anything in the world? I could do to help you That's where it's at I'm going to get through these questions Let's see Okay. Yeah, here's one Somebody was asking about the deal from the video the did I really buy this house video the one that the seller was at 415 the buyer was at 405 we actually met the middle at 410 and got an under contract I was so excited because the sellers were stuck at 415 the buyers are stuck at 405 And it was dead for 24 hours and the buyers came back the next day at 410 and the sellers took it quickly So they probably thought about it overnight and they're like man, we wish we would have put that deal together So that was exciting to put that deal together Um Do I think it might not be the right time of day to make calls? Yeah, sure This is not the greatest time of day to make calls But it's it's when I wanted to do the training session I did talk to a lot of people and I did teach you guys a lot of things and show you how to have real Conversations with people and to deal with people hanging up on me And you know weirdness and stuff you just keep pushing forward.

I'm making calls show going to showings previewing and closings You know, I'm not trying to be a smart alec by any means But think about that question for a second really think about it for for just a minute You know, you're asking me when I have time for it. When do I not have time for it? right What am I going to do with this lead for a follow-up? Which lead are you talking about Cynthia?

I didn't know if there's something I could do to help you a two bedroom Just sold for four four hundred and forty thousand. I could say Hey a two bedroom just sold for four hundred and forty thousand didn't if there's anything I could do to help you These are not my sales. These are not my listings There's always a reason to call people and inform them of some kind of market Something going on in the market and ask if there's anything you can do to help them Let's see Does that make sense?

For the last month I have foraged 100% of my food from the land, every single bite. Now in order to create a complete diet and really reconnect with the earth and my plant friends, I foraged about a hundred different plants as food and medicine. Today I'm going to introduce you to about 40 of the plants that I connected with over the last month. Pile of manure growing next to it, wintercress, landcress, creasy greens, goes by many names but by all names scrumptious. Cousa dogwood, delicious. Wild rice, manomen, the food that grows on water. I give so much gratitude to the Anishinaabe people who have been the stewards of this wonderful food for hundreds or thousands of years, without their knowledge and their stewardship. This is a plant friend that I would not have. This is my absolute staple both to my soul and to my body as it is the main source of calories per my month of eating 100% from the land. This is ginkgo. I am harvesting the fruits and the nuts. Goldenrod in the golden hour. This is a wonderful all-around medicinal plant to make medicinal teas from. A bounty of black walnuts in the parking lot ready for the picking. Cleavers and one of the ways you can identify this is if you throw it at your chest it often sticks just like that and cleavers are edible. Creeping Charlie. People consider this to be a noxious pest of a plant but it's a wonderful medicinal and edible. Crab apples, much to many people's disbelief, they are not poisonous. Some crab apples taste amazing, others kind of crabby, all of them worth a try. It's chickweed. You know it's chickweed because on the alternating sides there's this little row of hairs and it tastes like sweet corn. Chicken to the woods, one of the most popular and exciting mushrooms to find. Chestnuts. I consider them sort of like a potato in the sense that they're calorically dense and take very little processing work. Hey look I found some false strawberry. Now it's not a false strawberry, it's a thing of a tone and it looks like a strawberry but it doesn't have the delicious taste of a strawberry. Still worth eating though. Echinacea. I use the flowers and leaves to make an immune boosting tea. Ground cherries which are a wonderful treat to find, they grow in these husks just like tomatillos do. They are quite the treat. Ho-ho. Here we have Hawthorn which looks a lot like rose hips but I really prefer them to rose hips and Hawthorn can vary a lot from tree to tree. Some are incredible and this one it's all right. Hen of the woods or mitaki, a great edible mushroom and a great medicinal. Hackberries. A sweet fruit on the outside and a crunchy seed on the inside. Jewel weed. Watch the seeds explode. Autumn berries. These are considered highly invasive so eating them is good for our ecosystems. Smart weed is another really edible weed and it's also called lady finger because it has these smudges on the leaf that looks kind of like a fingerprint. Lambs quarter. One of my favorite greens in a weed in every city. Mustard seeds. With this I can make my own mustard or just add some real nice spice to my meals. Mint. My spirit plant that makes a refreshing minty water. This is one food that is growing everywhere. It is mulberry growing out of the cracks here in urban New York City and most people know that the wonderful berries are delicious but the young and tender greens also incredibly nutritious. This is mugwort and I use this as part of my sleepy time tea blend that I make. A plant that looks like it is ragweed and this has a silvery underleaf and also a really nice smell. Mullen tea and soft toilet paper. If it smells like onion and it tastes like onion it's onion and this is all onion. This is plantago and there's two species plantago major and plantago minor. This is the broad leaf plantain and the other is narrow leaf plantain. So these leaves are very nutritious. They are an edible and they're a medicinal. Something I like to make from this is a poultice. So if I'm stung by a bee a honey bee because I'm a beekeeper I will chew up some of these leaves and stick that where I've been stung and that actually helps when you have skin irritation from insects that have stung you and that's called a poultice. This is poke or pokeweed and it's one of my favorite greens. This is a toxic one that you have to cook and you only eat this when it's in its maristematic growth stage not when the leaves are flat but when it's when the leaves are still pointed upwards and they're young and tender. It's not a banana it's not a mango it's a papa and it's a true treat of the woods. You can tell when papa is ripe by poking it with your finger and if it pushes in just like an avocado when an avocado is ripe that's how you know. Poor man's pepper but my friend Eric Joseph Lewis taught me to call it rich man's pepper and it makes a great pepper substitute. So Chan if you want to eat a lot of greens this is the green for you. Stinging nettle the stings are medicinal and the food is wonderful. Shagbark hickory for making hickory nut milk. Violet which is very mild and makes a great base for a salad. Wild water. Bubble it up from the earth. Wild pears. I don't find a lot of these trees compared to apples but when I do they are abundant. Acorns how you eat them is you have to remove the tannins you can do that through a hot water bath or cold water bath leaching out the tannins and then you get an acorn mash you can dry that into an acorn flower. The acorn also produces the acorn grub a tasty little treat that's a pretty typical size for acorn grubs rich acorny nuttiness that's good grub. The everyday very usual and quite abundant wild chives to be picked from front yards parks and wild spaces all across the land. Here the dandelion stands it's an incredibly resilient plant the leaves are edible the flowers are edible the stem is also edible the milk inside of that edible and then the roots are edible as well. Young and tender amaranth a nutritious and tasty green. Here we have doc and the leaves of doc can be delicious or they can be downright terrible you'll learn the different docs this is the seed head here and often people will use these making crackers and the root of doc can also be roasted just like you would with dandelion to make a root tea.  Apples were one of my absolute staples harvesting dozens and dozens of them sometimes shaking them down from the trees and harvesting the bounty and other times just picking them. My favorite thing to make from apples is of course applesauce eating applesauce every day. Growing up I ate blackberries and raspberries and I didn't even consider it foraging it was just picking berries it's one of the most common things that people forage. Right here I'm with blackberry and this is one of the bramble berries which includes blackberry and raspberry and black raspberry and thimbleberry and salmon berry and there's more but not only are the berries edible on these plants but you can make tea from the leaf raspberry leaf tea is the most popular of all of them and the time that you want to do it is when the leaves are young and tender that's going to make the best tea. Aronia or sometimes called chokeberry not choke cherry chokeberry the best way to work with it is to make a very nutritious rich juice this is a very commonly found landscaping plant so it's perfect for urban foragers butternut a lot like walnut but it's a butternut different flavor different shape but very similar black nightshade few edible plants create so much fear this is a plant that millions believe is deadly yet millions and millions of people have eaten both the leaves and the fruits as staple food for the last hundreds or thousands of years black nightshade berries are incredibly delicious and I enjoy them thoroughly and yet for me to explore is eating the young and tender greens but again something that millions of people around the world enjoy food and medicine is growing freely and abundantly all around us and these plant relatives they are just waiting for us to create relationships with them that will help us break free from the global industrial food system and live in a more harmonious way with the earth with humanity and with all of our plant and animal relatives it starts by learning just one plant at a time and who knows maybe one day you'll never have to take a trip to the grocery store again oh my god that tree is loaded


Hi I'm Shirley Bond, the Minister of Justice and the Attorney General for the province of British Columbia and I'm very pleased today to be joined by Chief Lambert here at the Bay Street Fire Hall. And obviously all of us are looking forward to celebrating a wonderful Christmas season with our family and friends. But I've learned from Chief Lambert that there are some things we need to be very careful about when we're decorating our home or getting ready for the holidays. So Chief Lambert maybe you could take some time today and show us a little bit. Some of these things are obviously a significant safety concern. So maybe you could walk us through some of the issues that you're concerned about in terms of fire safety during the holidays. Well certainly Minister. Quite often many Christmas decorations come with electrical sources and in the fire business we tend to look at sources for ignition. I can tell you that predominantly electrical overload is a key component of any source of ignition. For instance we have an example here of a six plug-in to a one. We find that they fail after some time with electrical current passing through them. So we're asking people just to be cognizant of that. Make sure they're not overloading circuits and that they're using approved appliances and devices. So in other words don't plug in all your strings of lights and your your blinking Christmas decorations those kinds of things. Be careful about how you do that. And you can see there's some pretty dramatic effects if you overload those circuits. So okay well that's something we certainly want to avoid. What else should we be careful of chief? Well with some of the Christmas lights for instance when we get them in the box and packaging from the store they come with recommendations on how many strings should be on each circuit. Quite often the lights are kept and the box is thrown away and over years we find that the number of strings put on circuits is in increasing and increasing. And to that end what it does is again it brings electrical current or draw on these circuits that aren't made to handle them. Therefore melting them and again creating an ignition source. Again so what we ask again is people to follow the manufacturer's recommendations and the testing agency's recommendations with regards to what kind of circuit load we put on our holiday ornaments. So you can see this has actually melted the entire cord. So you can imagine if you have that on a Christmas tree or on your mantle that's going to be a major safety issue. What about the carpet chief? I see we've got some major issues here. We look at the use of extension cords again to power many of our appliances and Christmas decorations and what we see is we see carpets extension cords running under carpet. This is an example of heat buildup that melted the carpet as a result of an overloaded electrical circuit. So people are trying to hide the cords. They want their house to look really neat and tidy and instead they end up with a major fire risk. Yes. Wow you know I think what's important to all of us is that we want to be able to enjoy the holiday season. So we need to be thoughtful and careful about those things and one thing that Chief Lambert and I and firefighters across British Columbia have been talking about is making sure that we have working active smoke detectors fire smoke alarms in our homes. So chief I guess we can end our segment by talking about you know if you need a really unique stalking stuffer for someone in your life. We know that smoke alarms are actually inexpensive when you think about the risks that we face and we've looked at the statistics across the province. We know that working smoke alarms actually save lives in British Columbia. So chief I want to thank you for your work both on the smoke alarm campaign for the safety issues that you've brought to our attention. I want to wish you a Merry Christmas. Thank you for the invite here to the Bay Street Fire Hall and we want to encourage you please be fire smart this this holiday season. Enjoy your time together with your family and friends and make sure you're paying attention to some of these important safety tips.


Clinical trials have been essential tools for evaluating the safety and effectiveness of new drugs, medical devices, and health system interventions. During the COVID-19 pandemic, social distancing measures have posed challenges to traditional models of clinical trial conduct, requiring researchers to adapt quickly by implementing virtual visits and other similar methods. Despite this transition, clinical research has continued due to the quick adaptation of research teams. In the future, it is expected that a hybrid approach combining remote activities with in-person activities will become more commonplace for clinical trials. This hybrid approach will allow for remote activities to be implemented when feasible, while still maintaining in-person activities as needed. This article was authored by Tammy L.

Good evening aspirants. Welcome to the Hindi news analysis by Shankar Ayes academy. The list of articles which has been chosen for today's analysis are provided here. The ring for the handwritten notes and the time stamping for the displayed articles is provided in the description box below. And for the benefit of smartphone users, the time stamping is also provided in the comments section. Let's move on to our first article discussion. Our first discussion is based on this news article which is titled as Right to property is a fundamental right says Supreme Court. Now we have to pay attention here because the Supreme Court has not made any such statement in the case law that is mentioned in this news article. The case law is Vidya Devi versus state of Himachal Pradesh. So in this discussion, we will see the facts regarding the case law with respect to this news article. The syllabus that is relevant for this analysis is given here for your reference. See the petitioner of this case was Ms Vidya Devi who is 80 years old at present. She approached the Supreme Court for a land encroachment that was carried out way back in 1967 to 68. Her private land was taken from her to construct a major district road. So with respect to this, the Supreme Court has noted that the state has taken her land without conducting the required land acquisition proceedings or without following due process of law. Here the law refers to the then Land Acquisition Act which is called as the Land Acquisition Act of 1894 and also the then constitutional provisions that were available in the constitution with respect to property rights. And with respect to this land encroachment, even Ms Vidya was not given any compensation by the state for taking the land. So this is the background of this case law.  See the right to property was a fundamental right. If you see the original constitution, it was mentioned that all citizens shall have the right to acquire, hold and dispose of property. And this right was mentioned in Article 19, Clause 1, sub-clause F of Indian constitution. And this right was called as the right to property. In addition to this Article 19, one exclusive article was also present for the right to property. This article was Article 31 of Indian constitution. And this article stated that no person shall be deprived of his property saved by the authority of law. But an important point to note here is that both sub-clause F of Clause 1 of Article 19 and Article 31 was later omitted or removed from Part 3 or the fundamental rights part of Indian constitution. And that is why we are saying right to property was a fundamental right. And this change or amendment was done by the constitution 44th Amendment Act of 1978. So as a result of this, the right to property lost the status of fundamental right. And the same constitutional amendment act made the right to property as a constitutional right under a new article which is the Article 300, A. So as of now, the right to property is not a fundamental right but it is a constitutional right under Article 300, A. And right to property is also a human right of an individual as per international human rights standards. Even the Supreme Court has observed the same in this case law which is the Miss Vidya Devi versus state of Himachal Pradesh. But the news article mentions that Supreme Court declared right to property as fundamental right. So remember, Supreme Court did not make any such statement. Rather, Supreme Court just stated that right to property was a fundamental right when the land was taken away from Miss Vidya in 1967-68. However, the right to property lost the fundamental rights status when the 44th Constitutional Amendment Act of 1978 came into force. So this was the comment made by the Supreme Court in this case law. Now with respect to this case law, the state government of Himachal Pradesh stated that it is having the land of Miss Vidya since 1967-68. Therefore, under the principle of adverse possession, the land belongs to the state government now. Now this principle of adverse possession means that a person or government is possessing the property but this person or the government is not the true owner. Now here the state government is mentioning this principle because if a person has a private property under adverse possession for an uninterrupted or continuous period of time then under various laws this property could become the property of the claimant which in our case will be the state government. But this argument of the state government was dismissed by the Supreme Court where the Supreme Court noted that the state cannot be permitted to perfect its title over the land by invoking the doctrine of adverse possession to grab the property of its own citizens. And at the end Supreme Court also observed that the state cannot dispossess a citizen of his property except in accordance with the procedure established by law. It even noted that in the present day scenario to forcibly dispossess a person of his property without following the process of law would be violative of human right and it will be violative of the constitutional right which is provided under article 300 capital A of Indian constitution. Further the Supreme Court noted that obligation to pay compensation is not explicitly mentioned in article 300 capital A but it can be inferred from that article. That is the Supreme Court is saying that obligation to pay compensation is implicitly mentioned in this article. So the Supreme Court asked the state government to pay the compensation and all statutory benefits including solarium interest etc within a period of 8 weeks. In addition to this the state has been directed to pay legal costs and expenses of rupees 10 lakhs to the appellant who is Ms Vidya Devi. So these are the information with respect to this case law and right to property. With this we come to the end of this news article discussion. Moving on to the next discussion. This news article discusses the outcomes of a UN report named as levels and trends in child mortality. So in this discussion we will discuss about the group which develops this report and then we will see about the outcomes of this report in comparison with India's 2017 sample registration system. The syllabus that is relevant to this discussion is given here for your reference. Now this report that is the levels and trends in child mortality report has been developed by the UN interagency group for child mortality estimation. This group was formed in 2004 and it was primarily formed to share data on child mortality to provide methods for child mortality estimation and then also to report on progress towards child survival goals and then to enhance every country's capacity to produce timely and properly assessed estimates of child mortality. And this interagency group for child mortality estimation is led by UNICEF that is United Nations Children's Fund. And it also includes other UN bodies such as World Health Organization, the World Bank Group and the United Nations Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs. And these bodies are full members in this interagency group. So this group updates child mortality estimates once in a year after reviewing newly available data and assessing the data quality. So this report contains the latest estimates of child mortality at the country level, regional level and also at the global level. So this 2019 report presents the latest estimates done by this interagency group for child mortality estimation till 2018. And the estimates are done for the mortality indicators such as neonatal mortality under 5 mortality, infant mortality and mortality among children aged 5 to 14 years. And the first is the neonatal mortality. In this neonatal means the first 28 days of life of a newborn baby and this is the most vulnerable time for a child's survival. It is because children face the highest risk of dying in their first month of life. So based on this, the neonatal mortality rate means number of deaths of neonatal children per 1000 life births. The next comes the under 5 mortality rate. And this under 5 mortality rate is the number of deaths between birth of the child and exactly 5 years of age of the child per 1000 life births. So it is the number of deaths in this time period per 1000 life births. Next is the infant mortality rate. It is the number of deaths between birth of the child and exactly 1 year of age of the child per 1000 life births. So when it is between childbirth and exactly 5 years of age, then it is under 5 mortality. When it is between the childbirth and 1 year of age, it is infant mortality rate. The next is the mortality among children aged 5 to 14 years. And this mortality rate is the number of deaths between this age group per 1000 children aged 5 years. Based on these mortality indicators, this report assesses progress in the reduction of child and young adolescent mortality at the country level, regional level and at the global levels. So in this context, whenever we discuss about some indicators, try to link them with the sustainable development goals. So with respect to the child mortality, we have a sustainable development goal target which is target 3.2 and it comes under goal number 3 which is ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all. And under this target 3.2, all countries shall aim to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per 1000 life births. And in addition to this, all countries shall aim to reduce under 5 mortality to at least as low as 25 per 1000 life births. So these are the basic details that you should know with respect to this UN report. Now let us discuss the outcomes of this report. If you see the news article, the news article compares the estimates of this UN report with India's 2017 sample registration system. See this sample registration system is a large scale demographic survey for providing reliable annual estimates of infant mortality rate, birth rate, death rate and other fertility and mortality indicators at the national and at the sub-national levels for our country. And this sample registration system or the SRS was initiated on a pilot basis by the Office of Registrar General of India and it was initiated in few selected states in the year 1964 to 65. But later it was made fully operational during 1969 to 17. So currently the SRS provides reliable annual estimates of infant mortality rate, birth rate, death rate and other fertility and mortality indicators for the year 2017. So now let us see the data based on these two reports. First comes the indicator of under 5 mortality rate. According to the UN report in 2018, India is among the few countries in the world where the mortality for girls under 5 years of age exceeded the mortality for boys under 5 years of age. So this shows gender disparity in child mortality. Gender disparity mentioned here is nothing but the gender gap. And based on this report at the national level, India's under 5 mortality rate is 37 as of 2018. And if you see based on the gender of the child, then the under 5 mortality rate for male child is 36 and for female child is 37 for the year 2018. And that is why the news article mentions that the mortality for girls under 5 years of age exceeds that of boys. Not only this, globally we see half of all under 5 deaths in 2018 occurred in 5 countries. And among these 5 countries, one is India. And the other countries are Nigeria, then our neighbour Pakistan, then Democratic Republic of Congo and then Ethiopia. And even among these 5 countries, India and Nigeria alone accounted for about one third of under 5 deaths in 2018 globally. So you can see how severe is the problem of under 5 mortality in India. So these were the estimates given by UN report. Now if you see the sample registration system estimates, at the national level the under 5 mortality rate is estimated at 37. And these estimates also show a high gender disparity that is the gender gap in under 5 mortality rate. At the national level if you see the female under 5 mortality rate is 39 whereas for male under 5 mortality rate at the national level it is 36. So you can see the gender gap here. And the highest gender disparity can be seen in states like Jharkhand, Assam and Haryana. And then the state which amounted for the highest under 5 mortality rate is Madhya Pradesh which had a under 5 mortality rate of 55. And the lowest was seen in the state of Kerala which had a rate of 12. So this was about the under 5 mortality rate. Next comes the neonatal mortality rate. And according to this UN report the neonatal mortality rate for India in 2018 was 23. And this rate was same according to the sample registration system also. Because according to this estimate at the national level the neonatal mortality rate for India is 23 only. And the states with the highest burden of neonatal mortality rate are Madhya Pradesh, Odisha and Uttar Pradesh which had neonatal mortality rates of 30 and above. And according to the UN report the major causes of neonatal mortality are the preterm birth then intrapartum related complications such as lack of breathing at birth etc. Here the intrapartum means the time period over the childbirth from the onset of labour through delivery of placenta. So this period is called as the intrapartum period. And then other causes for neonatal mortality are infection then birth defects etc. Then after this comes the infant mortality rate. And according to the UN report in 2018 India has an IMR of 30. And according to the SRS IMR at national level is reported to be 33 which is higher than the UN report. And the state which is having the highest infant mortality rate is again Madhya Pradesh which had the infant mortality rate of 47. And the lowest is Kerala having the rate of 10. And this SRS estimate also noted that female infants experienced a higher mortality than the male infants in all states except few states such as Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Madhya Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Uttarakhand. Next comes the mortality among children aged 5 to 14 years. According to the UN report this rate is at 6 for India in 2018. And according to the SRS estimate at the national level the death rate in this age group that is 5 to 14 age group is estimated to be 0.6. And the state which has the highest death rate in this age group is the state of Odisha which has a rate of 1.1. So here we can see that in 2018 according to the UN report the age 5 to 14 mortality rate for India is highest as compared to the SRS estimate for 2017. So from this we can say that sound policies, concerted efforts and appropriate resources are needed to accelerate the progress and they are needed to achieve the child survival goals. Now it is important because globally we have the convention on the rights of the child which was adopted in 1989 and India got accession to this treaty in 1992. Here accession is the act whereby a state accepts the offer or the opportunity to become a party to the treaty which is already negotiated and signed by other states. And when one state gets accession to a particular treaty then it has the same legal effect as a ratification. So as per this convention of rights of the child most fundamental of these rights is the right of every child to survive. So protecting every child's right to survive will require addressing the persistent inequities and disparities in the maternal health and child health in India. And at the same time India needs to ensure universal access to safe, effective and high quality and affordable care for women, children and adolescents so that India can be on the way to meet the SDG targets. So these are the information with respect to this news article and the UN report on the levels and trends in child mortality. With this we come to the end of this news article discussion. The displayed practice question will be discussed in the last session. Moving on to the next discussion which is based on this news article which talks about the second wetland bird survey or the second waterfowl census in the Kaziranga National Park. The syllabus that is relevant to this discussion is given here for your reference. See the first waterfowl census in Kaziranga National Park was held in the year 2018. After that for the second time the census was conducted recently in this month. And as we know Kaziranga National Park is in the state of Assam and it is known for Big Four. When we say Big Four we are referring to the rhinos, elephants, Bengal tigers and Asiatic water buffaloes. In addition to this the National Park is also very important for wetlands and the birds in those wetlands. These birds in wetlands are also referred to as waterfowls. Then this Kaziranga National Park is also an important area for migratory birds. So it is declared as an important bird area in India by the Bird Life International. Then because of its outstanding significance the Kaziranga National Park was also included in the list of world heritage sites by the UNESCO. It was included in 1985 under the natural category. So these were the important points with respect to Kaziranga National Park. Now let us see the data of this waterfowl census based on the news article. The recent waterfowl census has been carried out by the authorities in the Kaziranga National Park and by the avian specialists or the bird specialists. In this waterfowl census it is found that the park has a total of 19,225 birds and these birds belong to 96 species under 80 families. And out of these 19,000 birds more than 45% of the birds belong to the bird family Anatidae. Anatidae is a bird family that includes geese, ducks, swans and few other birds. And even the news article mentions some of these birds such as bar-headed geese and teals. Now in this we should note that teals also belong to the family Anatidae. And out of the teals present in our country the Andaman teal and the large whistling teal are protected under Schedule 1 of Wildlife Protection Act of 1972. And the remaining all other teals come under Schedule 4 of Wildlife Protection Act of 1972. Then if we see among the ducks two species come under Schedule 1. They are pink-headed duck and white-winged wood duck. Other than these two species of ducks all other ducks are protected under Schedule 4 of Wildlife Protection Act of 1972. So this is an additional information that you should know with respect to teals and ducks. Now after those if you look at the news article it talks about an important range called as agoratholi range in the Khaaziranga National Park. Actually there are four ranges in Khaaziranga National Park. One is agoratholi range, second one is bagori range, then Kohora range and then Bura Pahad range. Now the census has revealed that more than half of the birds and around 85 species out of the 96 species were recorded in this agoratholi range. So what makes this agoratholi range special? The specialty of this range is because of the presence of Sohola wetland. This wetland is the largest of the 92 perennial wetlands in the Khaaziranga National Park. And it is reported that more than 34 percentage of the birds that were counted in the census were found in this Sohola wetland. So now we know that there are 92 perennial wetlands in Khaaziranga. In addition to this there are more than 250 seasonal water bodies in it. And one such important river is called the Pholu River which is running through the National Park. This river is known to be the tributary of river Brahmaputra. If you see in the beginning we saw this is a second wetland bird survey. And now also we saw one another wetland which is Sohola wetland. So in this context it becomes important to know about the definition of this term wetland. When we talk about wetlands there is an intergovernmental treaty that was adopted in Ramsar in Iran. And this intergovernmental treaty is called as the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands. And India is a party to this convention as we know. And according to this convention wetlands are areas of marsh, they are areas of fen, peatland or water. In this fen is a low and marshy or frequently flooded area of land. And peatland is a land which largely consists of peat or peat bogs. So what is a peat? Peat is a dark brown substance like soil that was formed by plants which were dying and becoming buried. Then a wetland could be natural or artificial, it could be permanent or temporary. Then the water in the wetlands could be static or it could be flowing, it could be fresh water, brackish water or salt water. Then wetlands also include areas of marine water where the depth of marine water at the low tide should not exceed 6 meters. Therefore on a whole we can say that wetlands include marshes, peatlands, flood plains, rivers and lakes and coastal areas such as salt marshes, mangroves, intertidal mud flats and seagrass beds and also coral reefs and other marine areas which are not deeper than 6 meters at low tide. And it also includes human-made wetlands such as dams, reservoirs, rice paddy fields and then wastewater treatment ponds and lagoons. So all these are wetlands according to this Ramsar Convention on Wetlands. So in this discussion we discussed about some of the important findings of the second waterfall senses and then we also discussed about the term wetland. With this we come to the end of this news article discussion. The split practice question will be discussed in the last session. Moving on to the next discussion. This news article mentions about the stone throwing ritual at the Bhajanakonda site which is a Buddhist site. So in this context of this news article we will see about the significance of this site in terms of art and architecture. The syllabus that can be linked to this discussion is given here for your reference. The news article mentions that because of Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage that is intact campaign and also by the efforts of government officials the villagers of Sankaram gave up the ancient practice of throwing stones at Bhajanakonda. See as a part of an ancient ritual the villagers of this village Sankaram used to throw stones at a belly shaped object at this heritage site. They used to throw stones believing that the belly shaped object is a part of a demon and this is done during the Sankranti festival. Now this practice of throwing stones is leading to a cause for continuous damage of this historical heritage site. Therefore to conserve this site the members of the intact and the government officials convinced the villagers to give up the throwing of stones at Bhajanakonda. So in this context let us see the significance of Bhajanakonda and Lingalametta which I have mentioned in this news article. The Bhajanakonda and Lingalametta are known as twin Buddhist monasteries. These twin Buddhist monasteries belong to 3rd century BC. These sites are located in Visagapatnam district of Andhra Pradesh and these two sites are known for three forms of Buddhism. They are Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana. In the Theravada period Lord Buddha was considered a teacher and during the Mahayana period Buddhism was more devotional and then in the Vajrayana period Buddhist tradition was more practiced as Tantra form. It is the form which uses mantras, meditation, yoga and ritual. Now this Tantric form mainly involves self-realization and spiritual enlightenment by following very disciplined practices like yogic practices. And this Vajrayana is also known as Esoteric. That is it is intended for or it is likely to be understood by only a small number of people with specialized knowledge or interest or it can be understood only by an enlightened inner circle. So these were the three forms of Buddhism for which these two sites are known for. Now these two sites are known as twin monasteries because of their similarities in terms of art and architecture. And these two Buddhist sites exist on adjacent hillocks near a village called as Sankaram which is in Visagapatnam. And this Vajrayana Kunda site is famous for many votive stupas. That is it contains stupas which are dedicated for offering in the fulfillment of a vow. Then this site is famous for rock-cut caves. It is famous for brick-built edifices or structures. Then it is famous for early historic pottery. And then it is also famous for Satvahana coins that date back to the first century AD. Now in this the Satvahana are a dynasty who ruled the present Andhra region and the Satvahanas are contemporary of Maurias. Which means the Satvahanas and Maurias existed in the same period. Then the main stupa in this Vajrayana Kunda site was carved out of rock and then it is covered with bricks. And then in this site a number of images of the Buddha are sculpted on the rock face all over the hill. So this was about the Vajrayana Kunda site. Now next is the Lingalametta site. In this site we can see hundreds of rock-cut monolithic stupas in rows. This is the specialty of this site. So from these informations you can easily see that these are our cultural heritage. So therefore for recognizing the cultural heritage of these sites, INTAC is demanding UNESCO's heritage site status. Because if world heritage site status is given to these sites, then it can be restored and preserved for the future generations. So this was about the news article about the Buddhist sites. Now in this context let us also know about INTAC from prelims point of view. As we saw earlier INTAC stands for Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage. It was founded in 1984. It is a private registered society which is registered under the Society's Registration Act of 1860. And it aims to promote the heritage awareness and conservation in India. And this national trust is also recognized by UNESCO as it was given the special consultative status by UNESCO in 2007. So that is all about this news article. In this discussion we discussed about the importance of Buddhist sites like Bujanakonda and Lingalametta. And then we also discussed about INTAC in brief. With this we come to the end of this news article discussion. The display practice question will be discussed in the last session. With this we come to the end of news article discussion session. The next session is the practice questions discussion session. In this question two statements are given and we have to choose the correct statement. The first statement is right to property is a fundamental right under part three of Indian Constitution. Then the second statement states the Constitution 44th Amendment Act 1978 has omitted article 19 clause 1 sub clause F and article 31 of Indian Constitution. Now actually these two are totally contradicting statements because if you remember right to property was a fundamental right under article 19 clause 1 sub clause F and also under article 31. So if first statement is correct that means second statement is wrong. If second statement is correct then that means first statement is wrong. Now to know whether second statement is correct or not first you should know whether the 44th Amendment Act omitted these two. Yes this 44th Amendment Act omitted these two articles. And these two articles dealt with right to property as a fundamental right. So that means this statement is correct which means the first statement is wrong. It is wrong because it should be right to property was a fundamental right under part three of Indian Constitution. Part three is the fundamental rights. So just remember that after this 44th Amendment right to property lost the status of fundamental right. And now it is a constitutional right under article 300 capital A. Because the same 44th Amendment Act made right to property as a constitutional right under this article. So here the question asks for the correct statement. So the correct answer to this question is option B 2 only. Now in this question again two statements are given. We have to choose the correct statement. The first statement is under five mortality rate is the number of deaths between birth and exactly five days of age per thousand life births. Now this statement is wrong because under five mortality rate is the number of deaths between birth and exactly five years of age of the child per thousand life. So this statement is wrong. Now the second statement states India has achieved the STG target of reducing the under five mortality rate. Now the STG target which is mentioned here is target 3.2 which mentions that by 2030 the countries have to end preventable deaths of newborns and children. Deaths of children under five years of age and all countries should aim to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per thousand life births. And under five mortality to at least as low as 25 per thousand life births. Now this statement would have been correct if India would have achieved this. But if you see the recent 2018 data provided by UN based on its levels and trends in child mortality the under five mortality rate in India is 37. So that means India did not achieve the STG target. So this statement is also wrong. Here the question asks for the correct statement. But here both the statements are incorrect. So the correct answer to this question is neither one nor two. That is neither first statement is correct nor second statement is correct. Now the third statement is based on Kaziranga National Park. The first statement states Sohola wetland is a part of Kaziranga National Park. Now this statement is correct. Recently we saw the Sohola wetland with respect to the second wetland bird survey or the second waterfall census in Kaziranga National Park. In which it was stated that the Agoratholi range in the Kaziranga National Park has more than half of the birds and 85 species out of the total 96 species. And one of the reasons for more birds in this range is the presence of Sohola wetland. And the Sohola wetland is the largest of the 92 perennial wetlands in Kaziranga National Park. So the statement is correct. The second statement is the Kaziranga National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the natural category. Now this statement is also correct. It was declared as a World Heritage Site in the year 1985 under the natural category. And also remember that from India we have totally 38 World Heritage Sites. 30 belong to cultural category. 7 belong to natural category. And 1 belong to the mixed category. So this statement is correct. And here the question asks for the incorrect statement. So be careful before marking the answer. Here both the statements are correct and none of the statements are incorrect. So the correct answer to this question is neither 1 nor 2. Now this next question is a previous question which appeared in 2019 prelims examination. Three statements are given and we have to choose the correct statement. The first statement is under Ramsar convention. It is mandatory on the part of the government of India to protect and conserve all the wetlands in the territory of India. Now this statement is wrong because according to article 4 of the Ramsar convention each contracting party shall promote the conservation of wetlands and waterfowl by establishing nature reserves on wetlands and by providing adequate space for the wandering of the waterfowls. Now it is not mandatory on the part of the government of India to protect and conserve all the wetlands in the territory of India. So this statement is wrong. The second statement states the wetlands conservation and management rules 2010 were framed by the government of India based on the recommendation of Ramsar convention. Now this statement is correct because article 3 of the Ramsar convention states that the contracting parties shall formulate and implement their planning in order to promote the conservation of the wetlands included in the list. Now the third statement states now if you know the second statement is correct and the first statement is wrong you can easily arrive at the answer because if the first statement is wrong if the question asks for the correct statement so you can eliminate option A and D and the second statement is correct. That means from the remaining options you can easily say statement 3 is obviously correct so the correct answer to this question is option B 2 and 3 only. But let us see why third statement is correct. The wetlands conservation and management rules 2010 also encompass the drainage area or catchment regions of the wetlands as determined by the authority. This statement is correct because wetland means the area of marsh, fen, peatland or water and it could be natural or artificial it could be permanent or temporary it could have static or flowing water and the water could be fresh or brackish water or salt water and it also includes inland waters such as lakes, reservoirs, tanks, backwaters, lagoons, estuaries and man-made wetlands and also the zone of direct influence on wetlands which is the drainage area or the catchment region of the wetlands. So this statement is correct based on this. Now let us see one another question. This question is based on Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage in TAG and the question asks which of these statements is incorrect with reference to in TAG. The first statement is it aims to promote heritage awareness and conservation in India. This statement is correct. This is the objective of INTAG and it was founded in 1984. The second statement states INTAG is an autonomous organization under the Ministry of Culture. Now this statement is wrong because it is a private registered society which was registered under the Societies Registration Act of 1860. So from the options you can say that C is correct and B is incorrect. So the correct answer to this question is option B only and the last statement is also correct. In 2007 UNESCO granted the special consultative status to INTAG. With this we have come to the end of our today's sessions.
