This session mainly was related to good touch and bad touch. As we have seen in the current scenario, this topic becomes very important as, you know, actually if we go to see the world as a pretty unsafe place now. So it's better off if we give education awareness to our students as well as the parents also on how to deal with such situations or how basically to understand what is good touch and bad touch. What we have done in our school is from K1 to the higher standards. We have done this session for all the students. Now the main intention is to make them understand what is done in it in different levels. Some children were shown movies, some children were shown the presentation, some children we just had a little chat, the other one we showed a chart paper with the body parts and all. So that's how you educate your children as they move on every standard. You educate them more and more about it and finally when they get to a level there is more openness towards talking on the same topic. While I was taking this session, my first question to the students was how many parents have spoken this topic to their own children? A few of them raised their hands, many of them did not raise their hands. So I think while doing this session, post during this session, children were a little more open towards talking about it. The bias was broken down and I had even told the students to go home and speak about it. So many of the parents who were unable to speak about it were feeling a little clinch in talking to their own children about it. The barrier was breaking as the students themselves went and spoke about it. It is awareness. The children firstly should understand what is good touch, what is bad touch, what is safe, what is unsafe for them and then how to deal with the situation. So awareness plus understanding and then how to deal with this. These are the three things we are looking into. And as it is generally seen that it is three way. If teachers at the school with the students and parents or they take care of bringing of the child, I think it becomes safe in its own sense. So I think if this is the time, this is the opportunity we should take and educate our students on good touch and bad touch.


Have you ever noticed how different fruits have seeds arranged in different ways? Ever wonder why? So in order to understand this let's go back and take a look at the process that development of seeds in a fruit in the first place. So we know that a flower has this ovary in its gynecium which has these ovules in it and the ovules house the eggs. So this right here is the ovary and these are the ovules. Now when an ovary matures the ovary turns into a fruit and the ovules they become seeds and the ovules themselves they are arranged inside the ovary in a particular fashion and that arrangement of ovules is called placentation. Placentation is different in different types of plants that's why you see the seeds are arranged in different ways in different types of fruits because the arrangement of the ovules remains the same when the ovules turn into seeds. So why is it called placentation? So let's take a look at the inside of an ovary in more detail. So over here this whole thing is the ovary and these right here are the ovules and you see these structures to which the ovules are attached. So these structures are called the placenta. So the ovules are attached to the ovary via these connecting tissues called the placenta because the ovules are attached to the placenta the way in which the ovules are attached is called placentation. So now let's take a look at the different types of placentation found in different types of plants. In the first type of placentation that we are going to look at the placenta forms sort of like a ridge at one of the margins of the ovary. So this is the ovary and this orange thing is the placenta which forms a ridge and the ovules they are attached to this ridge at the margin. Since the ovules are attached at the margin this type of placentation is called marginal. So it's the same thing that you see in peas this is the pea fruit though this is not the ovary but it's the same type of arrangement of the ovary as well because it's the ovary that turns into the fruit. So this type of placentation as you can see is called the marginal placentation. The next type of placentation kind of looks like a wheel. So in this type of placentation so if this is the ovary the placenta look like this. You see there is the central thing called the axis and then there are these things like the spokes of a wheel and the ovules they are attached to the central axis. Now this you can think of this as the top view of the ovary. If you were to look at it at the ovary from the sides or from the front or the back then the axis the central thing would look like a cylinder and the ovules they are attached to this axis and hence this type of placentation is called axial placentation. Another type of placentation which is similar to axial but you take away the spokes and you get something like this. So here the ovules are still attached to the axis but there are no spokes over here. The ovules are free from the spokes or the septa. Actually these are called septa. These are called septa and the singular form is septum. So in this type of placentation the septa are absent only the axis is there the ovules are attached to the axis but they are kind of free. They are free to be anywhere as long as they're attached to the axis and hence they are called free central. This is free central placentation. In the next type of placentation instead of being attached to something at the center the ovules instead are attached at the periphery at the wall of the ovary. Hence this is called parietal placentation because in Latin parietal refers to something related to a wall. The last type of placentation we are not going to look from the top so all these three types of placentation we were looking at them from the top they were the top view but here we are going to look at the ovary from the sides or from the front kind of like the marginal placentation ovary. So here in this case there is just a single ovule at the base of the ovary the bottom or the base of the ovary and this type of placentation is called the basal placentation. So you've learned about five main types of placentation in this video. Marginal where the ovules are attached at the margin of the ovary. Axial where the ovules are attached at the axis and there are the septal like the spokes of a wheel then there is free central where the ovules are attached at the center and are free to be anywhere they are not bound by the septal walls. Then there is the parietal placentation where the ovules are present at the wall. Parietal means wall so they are present at the wall of the ovary and basal placentation where there is a single ovule present at the base of the ovary.


John Harbaugh Ravens head coach. He said that they started studying film on the Texans right after they beat the Browns the other night So, you know what? I'm gonna try to follow in his footsteps and in today's video We are gonna try to look at some possible ways that the Baltimore Ravens can Exploit the Houston Texans some different ways that they can pick them apart some huge advantages that go in the Baltimore Ravens Favor, but I couldn't do that alone. I couldn't do it alone So I had to bring on a very special a very knowledgeable and a very reputable guest to help me figure this thing out Team keep it clean very very special guest in the building It is my guy KO Kevin Ostrichter from locked on Ravens before we get into it. I appreciate you coming on I appreciate just everything that you do for locked on Ravens Shout out to you. You always put out banger tweets literally every single day every single tweet You put out got like 50,000 likes and 3 million views and whatnot You'd be having the Ravens fans going crazy, which we love and we appreciate So I appreciate your time coming through on the channel KO You know, you know the respect is mutual engraven. I uh, you know, it's been a while We've been collaborating on these things now and you know every single time we do it's it's but now We're talking about a good thing Ravens into playoffs and you know got their divisional opponent But you know it's it's been a long time since we started this and I'm Really grateful for how you know, we've done things and how our relationship has grown too. Oh, yeah for sure for sure And I want your relationship with team period clean and grow even more So everybody make sure you subscribe to his YouTube channel locked on Ravens The link will be down below in the description and I know a lot of y'all subscribed already But we need even more y'all to subscribe and leave a like on all all of his videos as well Man show that love and support that I know y'all are great at doing now Somebody who we got we got a love for we ain't gonna have love for them this weekend is CJ Stroud and in the Houston, Texas It is official that the Baltimore Ravens will be going against them on Saturday at 4 30 p.m Just give us a brief overview of how you're feeling about this game I'm feeling good about it and Couple of reasons why I think you know if you want to start off with the actual stats You want to run some numbers quickly here the Texans in the regular season? They had the 8th best passing offense But they were one of the worst rushing offenses in the league at 29 and they look at their defense Passing wise they were towards the bottom of League 27th, but they had the second best rushing defense now for me This is a different Texans team than we saw in week one, but it's also a different Ravens team I think both teams have grown and it's further better I think we're gonna see a match up here where CJ Stroud and we talked all about how top two defenses in this league It was probably Ravens one and Browns two and CJ Stroud made that Browns defense look like they were the worst defense in the entire NFL On wildcard weekend. I mean credit to the offensive line for them. Let me tonsil and all those guys But one area I'm looking at right now in Raven. It's the receivers for Houston They've lost a couple of guys over the course of the final part of the season here Tankdale Electric rookie and South Florida guy He's somebody that is now done. He was done about what week 14 weeks 15 can't remember exactly when but he's not coming back They also just placed Noah Brown on injured reserve. So that's about 1,200 to 1,300 yards It's now gone for Houston. So the main guy got to focus on his Nico Collins That's the big guy and it's funny said so high-state quarterback to Michigan wide receiver and CJ Stroud and Nico Collins So it's funny rivalry between those two although their teammates now, but other than that. I mean, it's John Mechie and Robert Woods Steven Sims I guess Dalton Schultz if you want to throw in all the past catchers from me and you look at the Ravens secondary Ravens are really deep. I mean Marlon Humphrey. Hopefully coming back. We know what Brandon Stevens has done This is Martha Millette has been awesome in the slot for them Ronald Darby has been I think one of the better corners in the league this year in limited action So to me I just it's almost like Tyree killer Miami because Jaylen Wildman playing week 17, you know Tyree It can beat you put all the attention there and make somebody else beat you like make someone else make the play for me It's the same thing with Nico Collins Defensively, I look in the trenches for the Texans with their defense John Grenard is awesome 12 and a half sacks this season. Will Anderson was a beast in that Cleveland game I mean he was all over the place Derek Barnett, but to the Ravens credit, they're offensive line I mean, I know there were questions about Ronnie Stanley and Morgan Moses and those guys in the middle of the year But I think the tackle rotation has really worked for them. There's a question. Are they gonna keep doing it for me? I mean if it's not broken, you don't fix anything I mean, I would just keep doing keep doing it and it's worked But I think if you talk about who did the by-benefit the most Ronnie Stanley I think is definitely I think that at the top of that list as opposed to other guys to Hamilton and Players like that but I think for me I don't want to say the Texans are inexperienced, but you look at the rest of the AFC playoff teams They're the most inexperienced team left in the AFC because you have the bills you have the chiefs and you have the Ravens This is kind of a weird comparison and it's not exactly on point But I see a lot of the 2019 Ravens and it's different circumstances But I think the 2023 Ravens are a more mature version of what 2019 was that 2019 team was young They were historic. They were great, but I think this 2023 team, you know, they've gone through the failures They've adjusted for Houston. The thing for me is they have nothing to lose at this point Right, they're playing with house money because what if they lose the Ravens in a division around? It's they had a great season went far Anybody thought they were gonna go great year if the Ravens lose this game The world's on fire. Everything's falling down because they were the best team in the regular season So I think they match up well against Houston. I think honestly out of all these teams I would have only taken Pittsburgh over Houston. So I think it'll work out for. Oh, yeah That's some good points. You made a really good point that I think is a very very big advantage For the Baltimore Ravens going into this game because you talked about Texans rush offense But you said it hasn't been hasn't been that good, right? No 29th in the league this year. Oh So that I think that that makes life easier for the Baltimore Ravens because their past defense Overall has been really good the Baltimore Ravens if they can make this a one-dimensional game for the Houston Texans Obviously easier said than done You got to get out get out there on the field and prove it But if you can make this a one-dimensional game for the Texans that can make life a lot easier for you And something else that you mentioned you talked about their past defense. They were ranked low as well Yeah, 27 27. Okay. So yeah, those are things that could really play Into the Ravens favor and I think a big thing with this game Obviously those passing yards through the air, but also the yak The yards after the contact the yards after the catch that could be big for those Baltimore Ravens just to get those nice chunk plays as well and especially to because This and you mentioned it too. This is a much different team both teams are much different than they were Previously earlier this year because that was literally the very first game of the season both teams were brand new They were fresh. This was a new system for CJ straddles a new system for Lamar Jackson And both quarterbacks have grown a lot throughout the year made leaps and bounds But this Ravens team would be one twenty six to nine something like that Again completely different teams though completely different teams And while both teams have certainly grown both teams got the issues as well But the Ravens their offense has just been rolling when when Lamar plays obviously not in that stealers game He didn't play but when Lamar plays their offense has been rolling and the defense They've been doing that thing as well What advantages again just talked about them having a bad run run defense Excuse me run offense in a bad pass defense But what other advantages do you see the Ravens being able to possibly take advantage of well? I think just physicality too. I think these are actually two physical teams But something I've identified and I know you've talked about it I've talked about it is how this defense they made the personnel changes I think physicality in depth of the two things aside from the stars Obviously you have guys like Roquan and Kyle Hamilton, but the Ravens impose their will and part of this is I think The Ravens are so locked in right now I'm not sure anything could take them out of this mode. They're in talk about rest versus Rustin in the bye week and everything Again, this is this is a more mature Ravens team They have been through that and I just think the motivation factor where again the Ravens have everything to lose in this game The Texans do not not saying the Texans are going to play hard and try to win the game But they understand what's at stake here and part of this is Who knows what happens when this season is over Mike McDonald's getting coach interviews left and right Are they gonna be able to retain just some out of beat gay and Patrick wean And I think the locker room just likes each other so much and again You don't have to like everybody at your workplace, right? And maybe there's a little crazy relationship here or there, but John Harbaugh has these guys going and When you talk about the experience John Harbaugh does have in playoff moments again Is the track record been great recently? No, I think I think we can all admit that but he's one of Super Bowl and Part of it too is another advantage is you mentioned the receivers for Baltimore going up against that Houston past defense I alluded to Zay flowers. Hopefully coming back healthy in this game Oh Dell with rest or shot Bateman Isaiah likely is is Mark Andrews going to make a return Who knows at this point, but to me? I think that you can exploit that part of it because there are some players on that defense from a secondary perspective Derek Stingley is awesome. I'm a big Derek Stingley fan You know Jalen Petrie from Baylor. He's kind of a do-it-all safety But I just think Zay flowers one-on-one One thing I noticed in that Houston game you mentioned it in Graven 20 25 to 9 was the score One thing David a job. Oh had a sack. I think everybody was so excited about that is what he was gonna do But Lamar threw the ball 22 times in this game completed 17 of Zay flowers had 10 targets No other Raven had more than three a couple of them had three what we've seen this Raven's offense evolve to Is the more Jackson establishing connections with? Multiple multiple multiple receivers. So we know Zay can do his thing We know he can get his but Isaiah likely stepping up and Odell and Lamar connecting your shop Bateman makes a play here or there He can check it down out of the backfield I think that there's just so many multiple looks as Raven's offense can give where I think we're past the days of it Only being Zay and double-digit targets and nothing else Plus you have a guy like Dalvin Cook now who I would assume plays in this game He can work off of Gus Edwards work off of Justice Hill I'm not sure we see Melvin Gordon after uh after the fumble he had in week 18 against Pittsburgh But to me, I just think if you can establish an early lead get out to that and Make the Texans offense one-dimensional because you're out of that early make him abandon the run game early It works for your offense and it works for your defense and the thing this Raven's offense does into what Greg Roman era That offense would hold the ball for eight minutes nine minutes ten minutes. It'd be ball control offense Todd Munkins offense. They don't care about that They'll go 75 yards and five plays in two minutes and 35 seconds and score that ball Efficiency's been the name of the game for Todd Munk And I think how efficient this Raven's offense has been all season if you want to talk about a fish see defensively Third down defense and red zone defense have been the Ravens to calling cards this season I don't expect that to change here in the division around and I like what you talked about efficiency and just the different ways to get it and just really the overall evolution of this Todd Munkin offense early on in the season something that you brought up in reference to Zay flowers and his targets early on this season like that he would get a crazy amount of Touches and it was like it was nothing wrong with it because it's a flowers You want the ball in his hands you want because you can you can tell you can make some plays But while they flower still has been making his plays Yeah, Lamar and that Ravens offense. They really been spreading his ball out even more and funny You mentioned Mark Andrews He didn't play in the first Texans game and it's still as of right now It's still up in the air to see if he ends up playing in this second one Marlon Humphrey was somebody else who missed that first Texans game Marcus Williams. He left in the middle of the Texans game JK He uh, yeah, that's the game that ended his season prematurely But yeah, these Ravens they just much much much different and they have evolved a lot especially on Offense and I really like the way that they can get it in so many different ways They can score like you mentioned in so many different ways before it's so many different people So while Zay flowers, he may not get 10 targets all the time like he used to but other guys are getting involved And that makes it harder for opposing defenses to just focus on one person to be like, all right You know what Zay flowers? That's a number one guy. I will take him out of the game Oh, you still got to worry about bait You still got to worry about Beckham agolo and likely everybody you still have a lot that you have to take care of Even if you decide all you're gonna take out one person so this Ravens offense has just leaps and bounds much better and much more evolved and you've seen so much growth from Week one all the way up until now now I'm gonna put you on the spot and let me know if you decide to accept this challenge or not No, I'm not you know, I'm not a big score prediction guy, but Would you like to give a score prediction for this Ravens and Texans matchup? I will accept your challenge I will accept it now. I like this match up a lot for the Ravens. I think they're gonna win this game I think it'll be close. It's funny whenever I say it's gonna be close At least when I've done it this season the Ravens was blown their opponent out of the water So hopefully I say it's close now and what happens the Ravens go out there and blow out the Texans But I do look at the way the defense has played all season the Ravens have not given me a reason to pick against them Right that their defense is played great all season. They're offenses found their stride I think CJ shot does make a couple of place. I think he's he's playing it too high of a level right now Not to I actually like the Texans in their direction this year But I just think that the Ravens are further along in the process Which means I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt here and say they're gonna continue I'll say something along the lines of 27 to 18 27 to 17 something in that range not a complete blowout But I think the Ravens will probably have control for most of the game here and again Just make Houston play from behind right see how it goes eliminate their running game and play with that physicality Ravens fans. I expect to show up louder than the T banks stadium on Saturday you gotta be plays a factor and Ravens are built for this right there built for that physical cold weather smash mouth football both offensively and defensively and That to me is one of the many reasons. I'm gonna give them the win here Oh, that's something that I didn't even think about because Texans they had I know we have a retractable roof I believe but a lot of times they close it so the weather is not even a factor there But in Baltimore. Yeah, it should be cold and it's gonna be one of those hard-hitting very physical games I mean for Ravens defense. That's usually how every game goes is hard-hitting and very physical So this should be a good end and with it's a sort of special game You know, yeah, it's a different regime a different team But I still like to make it a little more special than it might be for Judea being clown because you know That's the Texans and they drafted him what number two overall that year So, um, I'm looking forward to Judea being clown. He finishing some of the sex that he missed in week one and making up for that Because he did miss a couple of But yeah, I expect the Ravens to take care of business in this game as well And regardless of whatever the score is gonna be Ravens like you you heard the man He said it's gonna be a close game But whenever he says it's close it don't end up being closer Ravens you if you want to blow them out Hey, no problem if you end up making it in a close game, okay It'll be a problem. We'll have a little heart attacks throughout the game But we used to that as Ravens fans, but as long as they leaving out of there with a win That's the only thing that matters and these Baltimore Ravens. They just everything is right there in front of them This is exactly what they play for what they earned throughout this season They won enough games and put themselves in a position to where they did have this by week to where all these teams are Battling going back and forth and whatnot and the Ravens just chillin. They send back watching watching everybody beat themselves up beat up each other While they wait for to the beat for it to be determined Whoever their next opponent was gonna be and it did take a little took a little extra time Then and originally anticipated, but we finally got to know who their opponent ended up being so I'm looking forward to this game KOI appreciate you as always coming through before we get out of here Let everybody know where they can find you and everybody know what what you got going on over there I was appreciating gravy naked find me over locked on Ravens were a five day a week Ravens podcast over there So we are on YouTube if you want to subscribe for the channel if you like to listen to your podcast and audio form anywhere I get your shows you can do that as well as the same show you're not missing out on any content there as well I also working with the Ryan Ripken show now That's a two-time a weaker over on YouTube, which we're we're doing over there So locked on Ravens Ryan Ripken show you can find my writing over on Ravens Why you can find me over on Twitter at chaos tracker 34 we put out constant over there on social media all the time So very Raven centric very Baltimore centric here and hopefully looking forward to a long playoff run here You know we can talk all the time about how after a close Ravens win They got to go find and figure out how to how to you know make this thing better make that thing better It doesn't matter anymore. Just win the game. It's the playoffs got to go do that So appreciate you as always in great straight up man. Just like that So y'all make sure y'all check out my guy KO from locked on Ravens I think he just did an interview recently with with with Zay flowers and Devon cooks agent So y'all check that out on his channel appreciate you The links to everything will be down below in the description and team keeping clean subscribe to the channel Make sure you leave a like on the video cuz y'all know it helps out a whole whole lot.

Hello and welcome to NewsClick. Today we are joined by Mr. Mohsin Alam Bhatt who teaches at Jindal Law University and he is going to discuss with us about the hate watch which tracks hate crimes across India. Thank you for joining us.  So the category of hate crime is different from a range of other categories we often hear about particularly over the last few years. So it's different from lynching or mob violence or even historically things like atrocities. The nature of hate crimes is actually quite well sort of entrenched in transnational legal literature because there are lots of countries which have legislations against hate crimes and also lots of different institutions, organizations and countries have proper documentation systems in place which also use the category of hate crimes, hate incidents, hate violence these all sort of categories which have family resemblances. The distinction between the category of hate crime and other categories is the idea of motivation and that is what hate crime the category really refers to. So the ordinary definition of a hate crime is any crime which has been committed by the alleged perpetrator motivated either partly or wholly by the hostility towards the identity of the victim. So the focus in deciding whether a particular incident falls in the category of hate crime or not is really looking at what really motivated a certain person who is alleged to have committed a crime. Now this motivation need not be the dominant motivation it could be one among many other motivations but if the motivation of hostility towards the identity of the victim plays any role in the act it will be classified as hate crime. So what we have been doing along with India Spend what we call hate crimes watch is just documenting religion based hate crimes in India over the last we have started over the last 10 years but hopefully we will want to extend it more. So then what we are doing is we are cataloging all the different incidents which appear from whatever evidence we have gathered to reflect that the alleged perpetrator was motivated by a hostility towards the religious identity of the victim that is the extent to which we are documenting under India Spend hate watch. So when we are talking about hate crimes you did mention that the focus is on the motivating factor. So obviously this is a I mean bit of a departure from the traditional understanding of criminal law where you have the intention and the act that's actually committed. So now you're saying that the focus what determines a hate crime is that the focus is now shifts more on to the motivation. So it's not that the focus shifts so for any and this is a bit of a legal conversation now but for any act to constitute a criminal act ordinarily under criminal law the act must be accompanied by a criminal intention. So for example a murder a person killing another person counts as murder if the person who did it intended to kill. Hate crime the category does not change that.  So apart from the intention to kill there was also motivation that the person who was the victim of this crime was attacked partly or wholly because of her say religious identity or caste identity or race identity then it would also be a hate crime. So for some incident to be considered a hate crime it should one be a crime on the face of it. Secondly for data collection purposes plus it should also have hostility motivation. So it would not only be a crime it will also be a hate crime. Could you tell us a little bit about the methodology that you've adopted for you know collating your data with respect to hate one? Yeah so there are two things apart from the definition as you would have guessed any assessment or motivation is quite tricky it will obviously be tricky even when it comes to adjudication so in countries where there is the category of hate crimes courts to find it quite difficult to assess whether the motivation existed or not and it's really a question of evidence. So what the first thing which we decided quite early is that whenever we are deciding whether a particular incident should be included as religion-based hate crime we would require affirmative evidence there must be existing evidence we won't merely infer something there must be existing evidence that the alleged perpetrator was motivated by religious hostility. Sometimes this evidence comes in the form of direct evidence so for example of the alleged perpetrator himself says that you know the reason I attacked this person was because of this person's religious identity. In many other cases these are circumstantial or contextual factors so the we just look at the facts and we see that the only reason somebody could have been attacked is because of the religious identity there's no other motivational factor the person is completely stranger but say for example has a religious garb and then you can infer that the only possible motivation could have been that so these are you and there obviously are the contextual factors sometimes the alleged perpetrator says we are I'm doing this because of love jihad right so explicitly the person may not say religion etc but obviously we know from the contextual factors that this must be something to do with religious hostility but there are sometimes slightly more complicated things and this is potentially controversial so we have included cow related violence or violence perpetrated for ostensible protection of the cow as also falling in the category of religion-based hate crime. Now the reason for that is in international literature we call it bias indicators so existence of the motivation of cow we are treating that as bias indicator but essentially that means is that when there is a certain contextual factor even though it there's no direct evidence we infer this must be something to do with religion because data shows that so India spent had done a survey which showed that most cases of cow violence actually happened against caste and religious minorities particularly religious minorities so since there's already a strong correlation based on data between religious hostility and cow related violence we presume unless proven wrong if we have any data we do not put that incident in but we just presume that if there is a cow angle and the violence is perpetrated against say a person being a Muslim by a person who's not a Muslim particularly a Hindu then we will presume this may be religious hostility but we are presuming that based on data and the strong correlation so that is the evidentiary side the second is and hopefully we'll talk about that more is the kind of sources we are using ideally we would want to use ground level verification but since we are just starting at the moment of the first phase we are only looking at English media sources so we have surveyed and audited English media sources now we'll move on to non- English and start including human rights reports other organizations and fact findings and hopefully over a period of time our own ground level fact finding volunteers but at this stage primarily we are using English media sources as a source but hopefully we'll expand. As far as India goes what kind of legislations actually exist that you know specifically mentioned or you know that can be placed under the category of hate crime legislation. Yeah that's a good question so at this stage in India we do not have an anti-religion hate crime law we do have caste-related hate crime laws I would and it may be something people can argue about but I do think the anti atrocities act the schedule car schedule tribe atrocities act is a hate crime legislation the his before the atrocities act the anti schedule caste violence was covered under the protection of civil rights act there the category the phraseology of the act was any crime committed on the grounds of untouchability again that is motivation so what that ground what that phrase try to capture was that the perpetrator is motivated partly or wholly because of untouchability or because of caste that is the sort of structure of a hate crime legislation so in India we do obviously have a history of hate crime legislations but that is primarily in the form of protecting particularly schedule caste of the communities and schedule tribe communities many people would argue even many sort of gender related laws also hate crime legislation so anti hate crime legislations but at this stage we do not have anti hate crime legislation when it comes to sexual minorities religious minorities racial ethnic linguistic minorities so that's not covered with respect to the recent discussions in the judiciary with respect to I mean I was reading article at the wire and with respect to the the directions given to the the state governments and the preventive measures that one needs to take do you have any information with respect to how is I know what's what's the development with that and how effective do you think that really is and what we need to do at three or two sides you know being the legislative or from the citizens and as to what do we need to do from our end per se so so I think we'll still have to wait for the implementation of the Supreme Court guidelines so in short what happened was that this case was filed by a variety of different organizations and supported by some really good lawyers in the Supreme Court and the primary frame of this judgment was this notion of lynching as it turns out the Supreme Court judgment itself didn't define what quote-unquote lynching meant so whether lynching is hate crime or lynching is mob violence it's not really clear from the Supreme Court order itself but it's implicit in what the court is trying to say because the court was asked to respond to a wide range of problems often described as car vigilantism etc so many of the cases which do get documented in the hate watch are covered by Supreme Court guidelines the Supreme Court I think most of us welcome Supreme Court guidelines but at this stage even most of the states have not filed compliance reports and Supreme Court had asked the different states to file compliance reports so that has not happened and I think it's a huge responsibility on the legal academy and civil rights groups to make sure that we continue to survey and audit the implementation of the guidelines because as far as we have gathered the information is not completely clear about how many cases have actually received the kind of attention which the guidelines are mandated but I think we still have time and we should get our act together and make sure that these guidelines are implemented speaking of legislative judiciary now let's talk about civil societies and citizens what do you think we should probably do from our end to sort of right so there are a couple of things the first thing is that any respectable hate crime monitoring or documentation system must have fact-finding which is done by volunteers or by people who are part of the documentation network so our big aim from the hate watch's side will be to start expanding as soon as possible and as far as possible the depth and breadth of hate crime documentation and that's definitely one thing which different civil society organizations students journalists and others can help us in because we are in the process of creating modules and questionnaires which fit into our methodologies so we would want people to take up this challenge and whenever they hear about a certain incident or they witness a certain incident to adopt these modules and protocols and conduct fact findings based on our questionnaires so that would obviously contribute to documentation which we are doing and hopefully which other people also doing because this has to be a collective activity and secondly while that is going on hopefully it will also generate some sort of local grounds well and what I would say local level mobilization both for documentation but also to respond to these kind of incidents because these incidents are not don't happen in isolation these are part of a larger problem of civil rights in this country so if people do start contributing to local level fact-finding and documentation then they'll also be able to hopefully get in touch with the families and provide them rehabilitation support and legal aid support so these are also sort of concrete deliverables which civil society organizations and individuals and students can participate in and I do see both of them working in tandem but that will really depend on to what extent we are able to have an outreach reach out to all sorts of different stakeholders and ask them to contribute so what is the purpose you really see as why you're documenting hate crimes or you know hate violence through the hate watch so this is partly connected with what we already talked about which is I think firstly we need to understand what is happening in this country and it can be surprisingly perplexing because the kind of violence which we are witnessing is quite diverse and some some of this violence has political overtones much of the other violence may not have that those sort of obvious political connections and I think it is really important for particularly for journalists and for the academia to understand what is this violence which we are witnessing what is often called vigilantism or targeted violence or mob lynching or mob violence so the one category would be hate crime and perhaps approaching this particular inquiry from that category so both in terms of documenting the scale of the problem but also understanding what is the nature of this problem and secondly hopefully if that job is well done then also really coming together and figuring out what is the best strategy to deal with this problem because the anybody who's been working in this area would know that most of the families which are affected are extremely poor they are not in a position to follow through through the legal means either to ensure that the police takes the right steps or the courts come into this whole issue in a productive way and in many cases the state's response has been quite weak and that's also something which is quite implicit in the Supreme Court's decision as well so what I think we as members of civil society have to do is to come together understand this problem and respond so hopefully genuinely good rigorous documentation will help that process but documentation in and of itself may not do that it has to necessarily involve a range of other people participating both for the purpose of documentation but also for helping the families and victims thank you most and for your time that's all the time we have for today thank you for watching news click and Indian culture for


Ugh, it tastes dark! Hey guys, this is my review for Titans, the new DC show that just came out. It's on Netflix. I thought it was coming out on the DC streaming service, that's what they were talking about, and then all of a sudden it was like, hey, it's on Netflix. Now admittedly we all thought this was actually going to be garbage. The initial trailers looked terrible, and the costume choices for certain characters looked terrible, because at least to say the show actually isn't that bad. It is a bit rudimentary, there's a few things that are kind of copy and paste storyline. The darkness kind of goes a little bit over sometimes, but comparing it to certain hogwash shows like The Flash or Arrow or Supergirl, I like Titans more, because I can take this show seriously and not laugh at how corny this crap is. This is actually a different take on these characters. Sure it's a dark version of these characters, but at least it's something different, because when we were originally given the new 52, God knows about what, the early 2000s, late 2000s, we were told that we were going to get a new version of these characters. But really all we did was we got a new coat of paint, like literally their costumes changed a little bit, but barely anything about them changed. This is a different aspect. We followed Dick Grayson, who has left Batman, but he still carries this unbridled rage, which he takes out on criminals, and he's brutal to these guys.  But that's the Batman we know, this is a different Bruce Wayne, we were alluded to him the whole time, but we never really get to see him. Dick is helping out this girl Raven, Rachel, who is kind of figuring out whether or not she has a demon inside of her along the way we meet Corey, who, yes, terrible, terrible costume design, absolutely awful costume design. She looks like a stripper, the whole freaking show, but the woman playing her however is actually really good. She did a good job. And Beast Boy, he's there. Minnily he's kind of the weakest part of this show. Jim and Rachel kind of have a relationship, but they're like the two kids, while Corey and Dick do all the adult stuff. There are some episodes here and there that are kind of lackluster, there are some that are actually really exceptional. One of my favorite ones actually is one that's entirely dedicated to Hawk and Dove. These two are the side characters that were introduced, one of them just happened to be played by Thad from Blue Mountain State. These two actually have a really good connection with each other, and I like their story, and I like their kind of pulling in with Dick and his story. There are some other really good episodes in here too. There's some cool conspiracies. There's some fantastic fight scenes. This is a well shot show. If there's anything that you can't complain about, it's how well it's shot. Yeah, it's dark and it's near impossible to try and watch on your phone in the day. I had to like put a blanket on my head to watch certain scenes. It's actually a really well shot show. There's some great cinematography, some great lighting, some great colors. Admittedly the last episode, I don't want to spoil it, but it's kind of a cop out, but it's a cool cop out because they put so much effort into it. They put so much effort into establishing this world and showing what would happen if and it is such a cool, cool concept episode. As a season finale, it's kind of a toss up for me, honestly, it's a bit of an end to end the season on, but I actually like the idea of it because of how well it was executed. As for the problems of the show, like I said, there's a bit of copy and paste. Rachel just keeps on getting hopped around from different place to different place. She's honestly kind of a useless, annoying character for a while. Beast Boy doesn't do much either. And everyone keeps on going off on their own, it's like supernatural mentality. I swear, I think it happens at least once an episode and the instant that they disagree with each other and they go off on their own, everything fucks up and it happens like multiple times in this season. So there are some predictable factors, there are some very cheesy and some poor writing choices, but aside from that, this is still a lot better than it has any right to be. Admittedly, I thought this was going to be a complete garbage project and it surpassed my expectations and that's rare to say. So in the end, I'm actually going to give Titans a 5 out of 7. I've actually rewatched a bunch of episodes because of how well they were written.  Anyways, guys, I hope you liked this review.
