Ready to impose complete lockdown to control air pollution: Delhi govt tells SC
New Delhi:Tlhe Delhi Government on Monday (November 15, 2021) told the Supreme Court that it is ready to impose a complete lockdown in the national capital to control air pollution. It also stated that such a step would be meaningful if it is implemented across the NCR areas in neighbouring states.
In an affidavit, the Arvind Kejriwal-led government said, "GNCTD is ready to take steps like complete lockdown to control local emissions. However, such a step would be meaningful if it is implemented across the NCR areas in neighbouring states. Given Delhi's compact size, a lockdown would have limited impact on the air quality regime."
The government said this issue would need to be addressed at the level of airshed involving NCR areas.
The Delhi government, listing the steps taken so far, said no physical classes would be held in schools this week and the government officials would work from home, and private offices have also been advised to allow work-from-home for their employees.
"All construction and demolition activities will be closed with immediate effect till November 17", said the affidavit.
Earlier on November 13, the Supreme Court had called the situation "very serious" and had said that the government should consider a two-day lockdown to protect citizens and inform the court on Monday about emergency steps to improve air quality.
"We have been forced to wear masks at home also, the situation is very serious," Chief Justice of India NV Ramana had said while hearing a plea filed by a student over the worsening air quality.
This is noteworthy that the air quality in Delhi, often ranked the world's most polluted capital, has declined due to crop stubble burning, emissions from transport, coal-fired plants outside the city and other industry, as well as open garbage burning and dust.
Meanwhile, Delhi's air quality remained in the 'very poor' category for the second consecutive day on Monday, with the AQI being recorded at 342. The air quality index of Ghaziabad, Greater Noida, Gurgaon and Noida stood at 328, 340, 326 and 328 respectively at 9.05 am.
The national capital recorded a 24-hour average air quality index (AQI) of 330 on Sunday as against 473 the previous day as emissions from farm fires in Haryana and Punjab dropped significantly.
This is noteworthy that an AQI between zero and 50 is considered 'good', 51 and 100 'satisfactory', 101 and 200 'moderate', 201 and 300 'poor', 301 and 400 'very poor', and 401 and 500 'severe

Lt Governor inaugurates 68th Cooperative Week

Jammu:Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha today inaugurated the 68th All India Cooperative Week across the J&K UT at the Teacher Bhavan, Jammu.

While inaugurating the celebrations of the 68th National Cooperative Week, the Lt Governor extended his best wishes to all the members of cooperative societies, Farmer-Producer Organisations, and all those involved in the modernization of Super Bazars of the Cooperatives.

Expressing gratitude towards Prime Minister, the Lt Governor said that it is under the guidance of PM Shri Narendra Modi and Hon'ble Home & Cooperation Minister Shri Amit Shah, the country is witnessing renaissance in Cooperative movement to address the developmental needs of underprivileged sections of the society.

“We are determined to deepen the cooperative movement as a people-based movement to reach citizens at the grassroots. The J&K administration is making efforts to facilitate development of new women and youth cooperatives and provide them with a solid support system to flourish”, he added.

The Lt Governor said that the government aims to increase the number of Primary Agriculture Cooperative Societies by providing much-needed support to the people in every Panchayat. This will substantially increase the credit lending in Agri & allied sectors and benefits will also flow to small and marginal farmers, he added.

The Lt Governor stressed that in order to truly realize the Prime Minister's vision of 'Sahkar se Samriddhi', Cooperatives in J&K UT must focus on agri-marketing, food processing, branding, supply of seeds and other innovative activities in dairy & handicrafts.

The Lt Governor also underscored that Mission Youth in J&K is working as a Cooperative entrepreneurship organisation and demonstrating how business with cooperative spirit can lead the way to tackle the modern challenges.

“Cooperative movement is not just about business or credit lending. It is our way of life. Every person has to work together for the same goal- a prosperous, peaceful and Aatm-nirbhar Jammu Kashmir UT. We must work together to protect and promote social and economic rights of every individual”, he added.

The Lt Governor impressed upon all the stakeholders to take necessary steps via cooperative institutions in making all panchayats of the UT prosperous and creating village infrastructure, so that by taking inspiration from the past, we can build a prosperous future.

“I believe that cooperative is the most credible medium of socio-economic development of farmers, rural population, unorganized sector workers, women, and we need to assess its creative, transformative potential in various fields, to meet the needs of rural and other areas. Accordingly, institutions have to be developed and wherever old institutions are inactive, efforts will have to be made to revive them”, he added.

Terming Panchayats and Co-operatives as two sides of the same coin, the Lt Governor said that if Panchayat represents grassroots democracy and administrative system, then the cooperatives strengthen their self-reliance, competence and autonomy in at least 20 sectors of the rural system like cottage industries, agriculture and allied activities by raising its economic side. At the same time it protects the interests of the deprived sections, he added.

The Lt Governor gave examples of IFFCO which is supplying Nano Liquid Urea to the farmers of Jammu and Kashmir; Amul, world-renowned milk producers cooperative and Krishak Bharti Co-Operative Limited (KRIBHCO) as successful cooperatives which have secured place in the top 10 cooperative institutions all over the world.

The Lt Governor also mentioned about National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India Limited (NAFED), which is the vehicle of development revolution not only in J&K but also in other parts of the country. All these institutions have been considered as a symbol of awakening of self-reliance in a very large section of the society for years. There has been a positive change in the lives of lakhs and crores of families because of these cooperatives, he added.

Speaking on the impact of Self Help Groups, the Lt Governor said that, in our UT, more than 52 thousand self-help groups are changing the lives of 4.5 lakh women. “This year we have resolved that 11,000 new self-help groups will be formed so that their potential gets its due place in the economy and development. With the help of cooperatives, we can give new impetus to entrepreneurial women's organizations, the Lt Governor added.

The Lt Governor said that along with transparent system, election, accountability, now all cooperative institutions will also have to make efforts to become profitable. We also have to work on making the cooperative sector more organized in terms of production and value addition so that its products can compete not only in the country but also in global markets, he added.

On the e-Inauguration of an awareness and training Program of Fisheries department, the Lt Governor said that there are many such schemes that have the potential to change the socio-economic status of communities and the benefits of those schemes should reach the grassroots. He directed the concerned heads of departments for sensitizing their officials to work in this direction with determination.

Under the leadership of Home and Cooperation Minister Shri Amit Shah, financial assistance of up to Rs.3 crore is being provided to the newly formed cooperatives, especially to the innovative organizations through "Yuva Sahakar - Cooperative Enterprise Support and Innovation Scheme". Apart from this, if the institutions want to expand, then the Central Government and NABARD are also cooperating, the Lt Governor observed.

The Lt Governor gave the mantra of “Quality, Service and Value” to cooperatives and said that it will definitely protect the interests of the weakest section of the people.

Meanwhile, the Lt Governor also handed over Registration Certificates to newly registered FPOs/Cooperatives. He also handed over a cheque of Rs. 5 lakh to Cooperative School of Education and Research institute, besides facilitating prominent stakeholders of cooperative movement in the UT.

Earlier, in her address, Ms. Yasha Mudgul, Secretary, J&K Cooperatives department, gave a detailed overview of the cooperative movement in J&K, besides the current status, she also briefed about the prospective initiatives including the registration of Farmer Producer Organization (FPOs) as Cooperatives. Initially, with the registration of 20 FPO Cooperatives, 6000 individuals would get benefitted out of the scheme and the number would keep on rising with the registration of more and more FPOs, she informed .

Sh Rajeev Rai Bhatnagar and Sh Farooq Khan, Advisors to the Lt Governor; Dr Arun Kumar Mehta, Chief Secretary; Sh BK Singh, Secretary School Education; Mrs. Mandeep Kaur, Commissioner/Secretary to the Government Planning, Development And Monitoring Department; Dr Shahid Iqbal Choudhary, Administrative Secretary, Tribal Affairs Department; Sh Raghav Langer , Divisional Commissioner Jammu; Doifode Sagar Dattatray, Director Animal Husbandry, Jammu besides other senior officers and large number of members of various Cooperatives and Farmer-Producer Organizations were present on the occasion.

Supreme Court bans fire crackers containing Barium salts

The Supreme Court today said that firecrackers and those fireworks which contain Barium salts are prohibited across the country.

A bench of Justice M R Shah and Justice A S Bopanna said that no authority can be permitted to violate the directions issued by it and allow banned firecrackers in the guise of celebration.

The apex court asserted that celebration cannot be at the cost of the other’s health.

“Under the guise of celebration, nobody can be permitted to infringe the right to health of others, guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India and nobody can be allowed to play with the life of the others, more particularly the senior citizens and the children”, it said.

“It is made clear that there is no total ban on use of firecrackers. Only those firecrackers are banned which are found to be injurious to health and affecting the health of the citizens, more particularly the senior citizens and the children”, the bench said.

It further noted that under the guise of ‘green crackers’ banned chemicals firecrackers are being sold and there is a mislabelling on the boxes and even the QR codes provided on the boxes of ‘green crackers’ are alleged to be fake.

“There is a report submitted by the CBI submitted pursuant to the earlier directions/orders passed by this Court and it prima facie appears that there is a blatant violation of the directions issued by this Court by the respective manufacturers and the banned firecrackers are being sold and used in the markets. The allegations, if found to be true, are very serious and cannot be tolerated,” the apex court said.

The court reiterated the directions issued by it earlier including banning the use of Barium Salts in the firecrackers and manufacturing and selling joined firecrackers. “Court had an occasion to consider the prayer made on behalf of the Fireworks Manufacturers to permit manufacture of fireworks With Barium substitute, i.e, Barium Nitrate. However, the same has not been Permitted till date and use of Barium Salts in the fireworks is continued to be Banned”, it said.

It directed all the states/Union Territories to see that the directions issued earlier by it as also today are strictly complied with in true spirit and in toto.

“Any lapse on the part of the State Governments/ State Agencies and UTs shall be viewed very seriously and if it is found that any banned firecrackers are manufactured, sold and used in any particular area, the Chief Secretary of the concerned State(s), the Secretary (Homes) of the concerned State(s) and the Commissioner of Police and DSP of the concerned area and the SHO/Police Officer in-charge of the concerned police station shall be held personally liable,” the bench said.

Nobody can be permitted to flout and disobey the directions issued by the top court, it said, adding that any wilful and deliberate disobedience shall have to be viewed very seriously.
