As a Teacher in a Medical School, I myself and so also many of my contemporaries… we got absolutely enamoured of ji when we learnt that after 52 years of prestigious assignments, he had decided to return to his alma mater Punjab University as a Professor of Economics. Today I have the conviction to say that …More than a former Prime Minister, India has lost a multifaceted personality… an Academician who earned global recognition, an Economist who went down in the history for giving a different turn to economic culture in India, a Statesman who for 10 years presided over a Congress led government blemished with a series of scams & scandals and yet never a single insinuation on his person and above all, a thorough gentleman who would, despite the constraints of protocol, choose to walk out to the road to see off his personal guests in much the same way as he did when he was a Professor … and may I say this with all the humility at my command, on one occasion, I too was privileged to receive this courtesy from him, much to my embarrassment. Hailing from district Jhelum, now in Pakistan, Dr Manmohan Singh was among the last iconic leaders groomed through the eventful period of the partition of Indian subcontinent .
Om Shanti 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Chillei Kallan Arrives in Full Force, Freezing Kashmir to the Core
Srinagar experienced a minimum temperature of minus 8.5°C, marking the coldest night since 1974, when it reached minus 10.3°C. The record for the lowest temperature remains minus 12.8°C, set on December 13, 1964. Today’s temperature stands as the third-lowest December reading in Srinagar since 1891.

At minus 7.2°C, Kupwara has recorded its lowest December temperature since 1998. The all-time record stands at minus 9.4°C recorded on 31 December 1986. Overall, today's temperature is the 9th lowest recorded in Kupwara district in December.

Moreover, the other plains have recorded the season's coldest night so far.

Due to the absence of snow cover, many hills stayed warmer than Kashmir plains.

The history of
began with the discovery of two critical principles: The first is camera obscura image projection, the second is the discovery that some substances are visibly altered by exposure to light[2]. There are no artifacts or descriptions that indicate any attempt to capture images with light sensitive materials prior to the 18th century.

View from the Window at Le Gras 1826 or 1827, believed to be the earliest surviving camera photograph.[1] Original (left) and colorized reoriented enhancement (right).
Around 1717, Johann Heinrich Schulze used a light-sensitive slurry to capture images of cut-out letters on a bottle. However, he did not pursue making these results permanent. Around 1800, Thomas Wedgwood made the first reliably documented, although unsuccessful attempt at capturing camera images in permanent form. His experiments did produce detailed photograms, but Wedgwood and his associate Humphry Davy found no way to fix these images.

In 1826, Nicéphore Niépce first managed to fix an image that was captured with a camera, but at least eight hours or even several days of exposure in the camera were required and the earliest results were very crude. Niépce's associate Louis Daguerre went on to develop the daguerreotype process, the first publicly announced and commercially viable photographic process. The daguerreotype required only minutes of exposure in the camera, and produced clear, finely detailed results. On August 2, 1839 Daguerre demonstrated the details of the process to the Chamber of Peers in Paris. On August 19 the technical details were made public in a meeting of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Fine Arts in the Palace of Institute. (For granting the rights of the inventions to the public, Daguerre and Niépce were awarded generous annuities for life.)[3][4][5] When the metal based daguerreotype process was demonstrated formally to the public, the competitor approach of paper-based calotype negative and salt print processes invented by William Henry Fox Talbot was already demonstrated in London (but with less publicity).[5] Subsequent innovations made photography easier and more versatile. New materials reduced the required camera exposure time from minutes to seconds, and eventually to a small fraction of a second; new photographic media were more economical, sensitive or convenient. Since the 1850s, the collodion process with its glass-based photographic plates combined the high quality known from the Daguerreotype with the multiple print options known from the calotype and was commonly used for decades. Roll films popularized casual use by amateurs. In the mid-20th century, developments made it possible for amateurs to take pictures in natural color as well as in black-and-white.

The commercial introduction of computer-based electronic digital cameras in the 1990s soon revolutionized photography. During the first decade of the 21st century, traditional film-based photochemical methods were increasingly marginalized as the practical advantages of the new technology became widely appreciated and the image quality of moderately priced digital cameras was continually improved. Especially since cameras became a standard feature on smartphones, taking pictures (and instantly publishing them online) has become a ubiquitous everyday practice around the world.
