U’khand farmers learn Swiss tricks
Dehradun, November 20 As part of the Community Initiative for Communities (CIC), villagers in Uttarkashi and Chamoli have found common ground with the hill people of Switzerland. Dr Padruot M Fried, an agronomist from Zurich University, is teaching farmers to adopt good farming practices that are popular in Switzerland. Disease-resistant varieties of grapes will soon make an appearance in Uttarkashi and Chamoli. Working in collaboration with the Himalayan Environment and Conservation Studies (HESCO) that initiated the CIC, trials are still on to select varieties that will be grown. “The soil condition of Uttarakhand is conducive for growing grapes. We will be undertaking a pilot project in the hills. To sustain mountain communities, jobs have to be created locally. This can be done by diversifying agriculture. “The economic downturn can be a dampener and can slow down tourism traffic. Communities living in the Himalayas need to have other alternatives,” said Padruot. Aware that communities in developed countries are moving away from agriculture, he is keen that countries like India take to diversified farming. “Each country ought to think about food sovereignty. We need
to grow locally and consume locally. We cannot possibly depend on food from other countries,”
opined Padruot. Impressed with the enterprise of Swiss communities, Dr Anil Joshi, patron of HESCO who started the initiative, said that though mountainous regions in India were rich in resources, the utilisation of technology and effective management of resources are quite poor. The Swiss community was voluntarily sharing its skills with their counterparts here. Dr Padruot has also introduced Napier variety of grass that can be grown in areas facing threat from landslides. “Trenching with grass can hold the soil, a natural protection against landslides,” added Dr Padruot. The Indo-Swiss initiative will also result in upgrading of water mills in Uttarakhand. “Water mills are absolutely sustainable and power generators of the future. In Switzerland, we have around 500 mills that may be more than 200 years old. The oldest one is in Eugadin in Switzerland,” he said. Professing similar views and part of the CIC, Daniela Delbane from Italy, a student of anthropology, is also perturbed by the shrinking agricultural land in India mainly due to construction and dam-building activities. “The government needs to think in terms of long-term goals. These economic activities are detrimental to the long-term interest of communities,” she said. Willingly sharing their experiences, they are also willing to
learn from the mountain people in Uttarakhand. Of particular interest is the traditional Beej
Bachao Andolan that favours protection of traditional seeds and farming techniques.

Raji dialect vanishing fast
Dehradun, November 20 Uttarakhand’s Scheduled Tribe, Raji keeps a minuscule strength of 517 as per 2001 census. This tribal community is settled in the border districts of Pitthoragarh and Champawat in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand. Backwardness in this community can be gauged from the fact that only 5 per cent of the community members are literate. The Raji dialect looks no more a preferred language of communication within this community. A survey by Lucknow University Professor Kavita Rastogi revealed that 90 per cent of Rajis firmly believe that speaking the Raji dialect would now serve no purpose to them and they have started distancing themselves from the dialect. Among those, in the age group 26 to 35 years, 65 per cent are least interested in taking to the Raji language. Similarly, in the age group 10 to 25 years, 40 per cent feel least honoured from being a Raji community member. Even in the higher age group of 30 to 45 years, 70 per cent least preferred speaking Raji. Thus a majority of Rajis are either taking to the Kumaoni dialect or switching to the Hindi language. Some interesting facts also revealed during the survey included 20 per cent of the Raji children from this community
are no more inclined to learn Raji. These children rather favoured speaking Kumaoni over Raji. Another 60 per cent
keep a complacent attitude towards the dialect and thus it is only 20 per cent of the Raji population that is at present puts the Raji dialect in day-to-day usage. An authority on the Raji dialect and first PhD in the country in linguistics, Dr Shobha Ram Sharma, contends that popularity of any language depends on the inclination of the community to the language and dialect among which it is spoken and also on other factors like job opportunities linked to a particular language. The last government did announce some incentives for members of the Raji community towards ensuring an increase in their total population. Those languages that fail to facilitate the livelihood go into oblivion. He said there was an urgent need to work towards safeguard of the Raji dialect before it is lost forever. Interestingly, it is only in rituals that the community still puts Raji
to use. However, the only glimmer of hope has come in the form of the community getting
representation by MLA Gagan Singh Rajwar, a legislator in the Uttarakhand assembly.

Encroachments on No-man’s-land on Nepal Border
Nainital, November 20 The step has been taken following reports of farmers encroaching upon those patches on the the no-man’s land that are fit for cultivation. Talking to The Tribune, GN Goswami, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Udham Singh Nagar, said, “Officials of the Revenue Department are the appropriate authorities on this matter. We have asked them to conduct a survey along the border and
come up with details regarding the reported encroachments. We will take appropriate action in
the matter once the survey report is available.” He claimed that the police and other security agencies are deployed in adequate measure to keep a tab on the developments on the India-Nepal border. Sources said that encroachment on no-man’s land is not an India-specific issue. Even farmers from the Nepalese side cultivate those patches of land. Media reports have also quoted members of the Young Communist League of Nepal stating that a drive will be started from the Nepalese side to do away with the encroachments on no-man’s-land. The areas which border Nepal in and around Khatima include Melaghat, Banbasa, Chakarpur, Lalkothi, Sailani Goth, Garhi Goth and Sunder Nagar. Officials said that although pillars have been erected at regular intervals to mark the boundary between the two nations but since they are damaged, it provides scope for encroachment on no-man’s-land. According to media reports, there are 19 pillars between Tanakpur and Khatima out of which pillar number 12 has been razed to the ground and pillars 6 and 7 are under encroachment.

India-China border trade touches a record low
Pitthoragarh, November 20 “This year, 215 Indian traders took part in this trade and imported goods worth Rs 41,30,950 from Tibet and, in lieu of this, they exported goods worth Rs 21,62,550 to Tibet,” said Pandey. The Indian traders
mainly imported Tibetan wool and animal-based products while they exported grocery goods from India. “Due to confusion at the higher level, the trade permission could only be given this year in July which was one month later than previous years. “Traders had to clear their last year’s stock dumped at Indian mart Gunji as there was no trade last year due to the
Beijing Olympics. Later, the weather became unfriendly due to early snowfall on the trade route. These factors resulted in low trade this year,” said the trade officer. The traders, who took part in this trade this year, are also disappointed by the low turnover. “Even our Tibetan traders and clients turned up in fewer numbers and we could only sell our last year’s goods to them,” said Padam Singh Raypa, a trader who returned from Tibet. “From next year, we will try to start this trade from June and will also try to make the return of our traders possible before snowfall occurs on the Lipulekh pass. “This year, we had to extract 30 of our traders from Tinkar pass in Nepal but from next year, we will take precaution in this regard,” said Pandey.

Scientists warn Centre on N-programme
Dehradun, November 20 Centre’s scientists say the government by entering into nuclear deals with seven countries, including the US, is costing the nation more than $ 60 billion. The scientists, in a memorandum to the Prime Minister, who is also the Atomic Energy Minister, asked the government to re-assess the social cost of its ambitious Nuclear Power programme. Recently, an accidental fire at Indian Oil Corporation’s Jaipur depot destroyed millions of litres of petrol, diesel and kerosene over six days and killed several workers. “Had the explosion occurred in the atomic power plant at Kota, Rajsthan, no one would have been able to tell the scale of the devastation,” warned Prof Dhirendra Sharma, Director, Science Policy Centre, Dehradun, and prominent signatory to the memorandum. Dr Sharma refers to many post-Chernobyl (1986) scientific studies in support of his
views. The US National Academy of Science’s Committee for Biological Effects of Ionising Radiation and the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effect of Atomic Radiation had cautioned against long-term epidemiological radiation effects.

Quality Council for holistic development of schools
Dehradun, November 20 The seminar was lead by Vipin Sahni, Director, National Accreditation Board for Education and Training (NABET) who threw light on the working of QCI and its prime reason for existence. QCI is an initiative by NABET to improve the quality of education in schools, support several educational reforms and to stimulate development of numerous strategies directed towards improving quality and teaching. The strategies will address the challenges of school education in India namely access, participation, equity and quality, relevance, management and resources. “The focus of QCI is to provide holistic development of schools so that children get right knowledge and can prove beneficial for the development of our nation,” said Vipin Sahni, Director NABET. Though QCI was formed in the 1997, but the right to accreditation has been into operation since last two years. In 2007, under the guidance of Dr APJ Abdul Kalam, the then President of India, stressed the need for standard education and it was with his recommendation that QCI developed the accreditation standard for quality school development. With the support of central and state governments and various other awareness programmes the QCI has been conducting various workshops to promote national accreditation structure. However, the tenure of accreditation is for four years and after proper examination of the school and other important factors such as safety, hygiene and heath QCI gives the accreditation. “QCI has a well laid out structured process of assessment. It is based on measurable 50 points check list of various parameters and one of the most significant accreditation process is self evaluation by school functionaries, which is very effective in regulating things,” added Vipin Sahni. Training to various teachers from time to time has been given and pioneers from various fields are a part of this initiative. Discussing QCI’s future plans and response in Uttarakhand Vipin Sahni said, “From play school to Class 12 QCI is open to all boards and presently we have provided accreditation to nine schools and as far as Uttarakhand is concerned we are in the initial stages of discussion and are sure that with the help of ongoing informative seminars we will be able to guide large number of schools,”

Play, folk songs mark St Mary School function
Haridwar, November 20 Variety in theme and presentation made the function a memorable one and there was not a single seat vacant at the venue. After singing a prayer, students presented ‘Maa Tujhe Salaam’. Their performance
drew applause. What set the function apart from usual school functions was the focus on regional and traditional dances in an attempt to bring the cultural diversity of India on a single platform. Folk dances of Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Rajasthan were performed with clinical precision by students. Play ‘Bhatakte Kadam’ tried to focus on the younger generation that is moving away from traditional moral values. The play tried to generate awareness among children about drugs, rash driving, immorality and blind following of Western lifestyle. The skit ‘A Child’s Play’ focused on child labour in Uttarakahand, particularly in Haridwar. Kaspari Kutty, director of the play, said that he was upset by the number of child labourers working in the city and thus he thought of bringing this aspect to people’s notice. “It is good that schoolchildren are acting in the play. This way, they will better understand the plight suffered by their compatriots,” remarked Kutty. Some sporting thrill was brought to the stage with a fine exhibition of karate by the students and drew roars and whistles from fellow students. Earlier, the function was inaugurated by Bishop Francis Kalist of Meerut Diocese. He urged students to respect their parents and teachers. Citing Mother Mariyam’s example, he exhorted them to lead a simple life and work for humanity. School manager Father Titis and Principal Sister Betsi welcomed the guests and read the school annual report.

Bhardwaj said due to climatic changes, reduction of 10 to 15 per cent had already been noticed in the production of paddy crop this year. “In the coming years, the effects will be severe. As the economy of our country is largely based on agriculture, it is bound to be affected with the climatic changes, which has already started showing effects”, said Bhardwaj. Raj Dev Singh, Director of NIH, said the changes would not only affect the agriculture scenario but also tell upon the health of the people globally. “The world will witness various kinds of new diseases in the coming days due to disturbance of natural climatic cycle.

Oil massage essential to check hairfall
Dehradun, November 20 Well, this wintry season brings dryness and dehydration in the skin as well as hair and if not taken care of properly, can damage your hair and skin too. Here are list of some assistance for you to handle these tribulations: The reasons behind these problems are the decreasing level of PH balance in the body. Less intake of water and other fluids also result in the dryness of the skin and hair. Intake of sufficient water can help in maintaining the moisture of the skin. Apart from this, our diet and lifestyle also determine the texture of hair and the kind of skin we have. Eating nuts, fruits, vegetables and milk can provide essential vitamins and nutrients to the body, which enhance the entire look. Nowadays, beauty parlours are mushrooming at every nook and corner of the city. These parlours are another way to help the skin and hair look gorgeous. Skin therapy, facials, skin massage, hair massage, hair-breakage treatment, etc are the several options that can help in repairing the skin and hair. Beauty expert Suman of Expression Salon and Spa said, “The three simple steps of CTM, cleansing, toning and moisturising of skin, should be followed on a regular basis. “PH balanced soap or mild facewash should be used to clean away the dirt. Facial scrubbing is yet another way to exfoliate the dead skin, which also does deep pore cleansing of the skin”. She also gave some tips to maintain the tresses for women. “Dealing with hair fall is a very tedious job. Oil massage is the most essential and effective way to fight hairfall, dandruff, split-ends and hair breakage. “Olive, almond, mustard and castor oil are the best-suited oils for the hair in winter. These provide nourishment and sustenance to the locks,” elucidated Suman. “Giving steam to your hair is the next step after oiling, which should be further followed by shampooing and conditioning,” she added. Home-made remedies can also be tried out. Paste of “methi” (fenugreek seeds soaked in water and then ground), egg, yoghurt, soyabeen oil and hibiscus flower can give you highly lustrous, silky and strong tresses. Heena, if applied once in a fortnight, softens and smoothen hair as well as gives colour to them. “These remedies are natural and have no side effects. But its better to consult a dermatologist for better treatment,” said Suman.

Costume jewellery adds glitter to today’s woman
Dehradun, November 20 Costume jewellery, also called fashion jewellery, junk jewellery or fake jewellery, is the jewellery manufactured for the masses to complement a particular fashionable dress. However, the reason for its ever-growing demand is that, along with replica of the real jewellery, it’s available in varied stones, colours and cheap in price as compared to over the top prices of real gold and diamond jewellery. “Besides my business of real jewellery, recently I opened a costume jewellery store so that I can cater to the ongoing demand for this segment of jewellery, which is economical, attractive and can be purchased by everyone,” informed Amit, a jeweller. Designed with fine craftsmanship, in pearls, gems, diamond look and gold look, the pattern keeps on changing as per the season, and with oodles of grace and style it simply matches with the appearance of any outfit. Interestingly, as the marriage season is going on, women are thronging jewellers who are providing these ornamental bridal sets on rent. Starting from mini tops worth Rs 25, the price of the costume jewellery exceeds to Rs 5,000 and is brought from Mumbai, a city famous for manufacturing some of the best costume jewellery in the country. “For the past five years, we are importing costume jewellery from Mumbai as people, especially the bride and her relatives, during the wedding season, want a matching jewellery set at a very reasonable rate and without any fear of misplacing it,” said Vipin, a jeweller. “I had to purchase jewellery for my friend’s wedding, but as I didn’t have much money, I picked up a gorgeous piece of costume jewellery, which is equally nice and attractive at an affordable price,” said Shikha, a college student. The modern costume jewellery incorporates a wide range of materials. High-end crystals, cubic zirconia simulated diamonds and some semi-precious stones are used in place of precious stones. Metals include gold or silver-plated brass, and sometimes vermeil or sterling silver, making the jewellery worth purchasing. “Not only artificial stones, we are also using precious stones with a base of metal so that partial look of original jewellery can be achieved. Polki and kundan jewellery are very much in demand and, if taken care of, can easily last for a year or two,” added Amit.
