SPARSH is the acronym used for “System for Pension Administration Raksha” and is an integrated system for automation of sanction and disbursement of Defence Pension.

GO STEADY & SLOW

Most young tree saplings spend their early decades under the shade of their mother's canopy. Limited sunlight means they grow slowly. 
Slow growth leads to dense, hard wood. 

But something interesting happens if you plant a tree in an open field: free from the shade of bigger trees, the sapling gorges on sunlight and grows fast. 
Fast growth leads to soft, airy wood that didn't have time to densify. 
and soft, airy wood is a breeding ground for fungus, disease, and ultimately a short life. 

BANK MERGER - AN INSPIRING STORY

Syndicate Bank merged with Canara Bank on 1st April 2020. 

With bank mergers taking place and banks losing their identity, here is a little-known story of a once-private Syndicate Bank, which started with a 25-paise deposit...

There are three reasons why Syndicate Bank is important in the evolution of India as a wealth generator and for working towards the upliftment of the masses.

EXPIRY IN MEDICINES

Before 1979 no expiry  date was mentioned  on medicines, this practice started in USA in 1979. An article shared by Dr Mohsin Jaffer of Florida, USA_

*DO MEDICINES REALLY EXPIRE OR ARE WE TAKEN FOR A RIDE?*

*A Family of Doctors in England & in  Mumbai* have been hammering the point that *medicines don't expire....*
By Richard Altschuler

If a bottle of Tylenol, (Paracetamol) for example, says something like "Do not use after June 1998," and it is August 2002, should you take the Tylenol? Should you discard it? Can you get hurt if you take it? Will it simply have lost its potency and do you no good?

RESTAURANT - THIS WORLD IS

*यह दुनिया एक रेस्तरां* 
रात मैं पत्नी के साथ होटल में रुका था। सुबह दस बजे मैं नाश्ता करने गया। क्योंकि नाश्ता का समय साढ़े दस बजे तक ही होता है, इसलिए होटल वालों ने बताया कि जिसे जो कुछ लेना है, वो साढ़े दस बजे तक ले ले। इसके बाद बुफे बंद कर दिया जाएगा।

1972 - USA

The facts Some history not to be forgotten
The year was 1971 and the month November. 

"If India pokes its nose in Pakistan, US will not keep its trap shut. India will be taught a lesson"
- Richard Nixon. 

"India regards America as a friend. Not a boss. India is capable of writing its own destiny. We know and are aware how to deal with each one according to circumstances"
- Indira Gandhi 

PRAYER - OF KIND

*'The real reason for our blessings'*

There is a cafe near my house which is mostly full of customers & we invariably have to wait.  I have noticed many times that a person comes and takes advantage of the crowd & after eating, secretly leaves without paying.

PAKISTAN'S PROBLEM

*Pakistan's General Problem.*

How Pakistan's Generals turned the country into an international jihadi tourist resort.  By Mohammad Hanif
_(Mohammed Hanif is the author of A Case of Exploding Mangoes (2008), his first novel, a satire on the death of General Zia ul Haq)_

What is the last thing you say to your best general when ordering him into a do-or-die mission? A prayer maybe, if you are religiously inclined. A short lecture, underlining the importance of the mission, if you want to keep it businesslike. Or maybe you'll wish him good luck accompanied by a clicking of the heels and a final salute.

OROP - OBSESSION

*HOW OROP BECAME AN OBSESSION ?*
By Brig BL Poonia, VSM (Retd)_

_On this issue, the govt's stand in the Supreme Court was crisp clear, that this being a policy matter, it fell exclusively within the domain of the Executive, and the Judiciary had no jurisdiction to dictate terms and conditions._

_The Ex-Servicemen's League quoted the Finance Minister's speech in the Parliament defining OROP. But the Supreme Court said, "It cannot issue a mandamus to implement a statement made in the Parliament. A minister's statement given during a budget speech is not legally enforceable, that is our judgment."_

SIACHIN DEAL

Today, the man himself who witnessed the deal between India and Pakistan has exposed the Congress's double face.

*'Shyam Saran, who was the Foreign Secretary of India until 2006,* in his upcoming book part-history-part-memoir titled *'How India Sees the World,'* has revealed that he along with his Pakistani counterpart Riaz Mohammad Khan had struck a deal on *'Orders of Congress Government to take back Indian troops and give away the Siachen Glacier to Pakistan.'*

RANKS - ARMY NEEDS TO LEARN

ARMY NEEDS TO LEARN
By
Brigadier V Mahalingam (Retired)
  
      The pay commission has done it yet again. The Army has not been equated with the IAS. Was it not expected? The problem with the Services is, we are not prepared to change or learn. I believe, the so-called pyramid is a self-created one and the problem can be overcome only if we are prepared to change. There are two clear ways out of the problem. 
 

I CARDS MARRIED DAUGHTERS

*Exclusion of ex-servicemen's married daughters from ID cards unconstitutional: HC*

The exclusion of married daughters for granting identity (ID) cards to dependents of ex-servicemen in terms of guideline 5 (c) of the Guidelines is violative of Articles 14 and 15 of the Constitution, the High Court of Karnataka has ruled. 
Justice M Nagaprasanna said this while directing the authorities to issue an ID card to Priyanka R Patil, the daughter of an ex-serviceman. 

THE NEUROBICS

*The Neurobic*.  Alzheimer's causes the person to lose memory and can no longer have feelings of pleasure and joy, nor control of their own organs.
 The patient loses the Consciousness about his actions and his own Identity, because he will no longer be able to recognize himself.  He loses character, will and power of decision, they do not recognize his friends and family, and not even his own children.

SOCIAL RULES

*SOME SOCIAL RULES THAT MAY HELP YOU*

These *Manners* are a part & parcel of the life of an Officer of the Armed Forces
*Rules*
1. Don't call someone more than twice continuously. If they don't pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to;

2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person that borrowed you remember or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.

HOME

*PERMANENT ADDRESS*

I was only 9.  There was pensive silence at home when days after the happy news of my dads promotion in a nationalised bank he received orders of transfer as a branch manager to a small village in Rajasthan. We were then in Ahmedabad and this also happened to be the time he was building a house next to our ancestral home.

I had seen him struggle with numbers, adding, subtracting, circling staff loans and FDs he would break and putting a question mark against a few empty spaces in the total. 

DESTRUCTION OF A NATION

*SELF DESTRUCTION OF A GREAT NATION*

*MUKUL DEV*

 India is the only country where there are 400+ Lt Gen rank wearing police officers  (Army has 83 Lt Gens, though being 1.3 million).

Out of 400 plus DG and ADG post officers, 40 plus are drawing salary equivalent of Army Comander  from 25 years of service till they retire( even DG NDRF having strength less then 5 infantry battalions draw Army commanders salary).

CYBERCRIME ALERT..

 Today I wish to alert you all about the devastating effects of AI in our every day life, subjecting one to financial and other frauds, based on my personal experience. I always used to believe that nothing would happen to me and used to listen to all such stories with a pinch of salt.

Old days

THOSE WERE THE DAYS 😊                                                               

My mum used to spread butter on bread to make sandwiches, chop eggs, vegetables & fruits on the same cutting board with the same knife, but we didn't seem to get food poisoning.
 
Our school sandwiches were wrapped in paper in a brown paper bag, not in ice pack coolers and stayed that way till lunchtime but I can't remember anyone getting E. Coli.

1962 - TRAGEDY - MESSED UP

 How Nehru's proteges messed it up

Claude Arpi
This article is dedicated to all those who died during the 1962 Sino-Indian war; to those who suffered for months in the PoW camps in Tibet; to those who were humiliated for no fault of theirs; to their families.


Let us hope that what happened in 1962 will never happened again, prays Claude Arpi    

GEN HARBAKSH WHO SAVED PUNJAB - 1965

 The general who saved Punjab in the 1965 War

By Gurmeet Kanwal    September 7, 2015

Lieutenant General Harbakhsh Singh, GOC, Western Command, disobeyed the then army chief and took on a superior Pakistani armoured column. The Indian Centurion tanks outgunned the more modern Pakistani Patton tanks in the battle at Khem Karan, that proved the turning point of the 1965 War.

Brigadier Gurmeet Kanwal (retd) salutes the Soldiers' General.

Some war images stick permanently in the mind and that of Lieutenant General Harbakhsh Singh, the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Western Command, standing atop the Haji Pir Pass after its capture by India during the 1965 war with Pakistan, is one of them.

HOW CHINA PREPARED FOR 1962 WAR

 Revealed: How China prepared for 1962 war

Ajai Shukla    December 15, 2017

From March 1959 to March 1962, the PLA fought 12 major battles in central Tibet which was seen as an opportunity to train China's soldiers, notes Ajai Shukla.

In pathbreaking research into the Tibetan uprising between 1956 and 1959, and the lead-up to the 1962 war, Chinese scholar Jianglin Li has accessed Chinese Communist Party documents and interviewed People's Liberation Army veterans from that war to present critical new aspects of that period's history.

KAIDARNATH - केदारनाथ मंदिर

केदारनाथ मंदिर एक अनसुलझी पहेली  है I 

केदारनाथ मंदिर का निर्माण किसने करवाया था इसके बारे में बहुत कुछ कहा जाता है। पांडवों से लेकर आदि शंकराचार्य तक। 

आज का विज्ञान बताता है कि केदारनाथ मंदिर शायद 8वीं शताब्दी में बना था।

यदि आप ना भी कहते हैं, तो भी यह मंदिर कम से कम 1200 वर्षों से अस्तित्व में है।

 केदारनाथ की भूमि 21वीं सदी में भी बहुत प्रतिकूल है।

एक तरफ 22,000 फीट ऊंची केदारनाथ पहाड़ी, दूसरी तरफ 21,600 फीट ऊंची कराचकुंड और तीसरी तरफ 22,700 फीट ऊंचा भरतकुंड है।

इन तीन पर्वतों से होकर बहने वाली पांच नदियां हैं मंदाकिनी, मधुगंगा, चिरगंगा, सरस्वती और स्वरंदरी। इनमें से कुछ इस पुराण में लिखे गए हैं।

 यह क्षेत्र "मंदाकिनी नदी" का एकमात्र जलसंग्रहण क्षेत्र है। यह मंदिर एक कलाकृति है I कितना बड़ा असम्भव कार्य रहा होगा ऐसी जगह पर कलाकृति जैसा मन्दिर बनाना जहां ठंड के दिन भारी मात्रा में बर्फ हो और बरसात के मौसम में बहुत तेज गति से पानी बहता हो। आज भी आप गाड़ी से उस स्थान तक नही जा सकते I

 फिर इस मन्दिर को ऐसी जगह क्यों बनाया गया?

 ऐसी प्रतिकूल परिस्थितियों में 1200 साल से भी पहले ऐसा अप्रतिम मंदिर कैसे बन सकता है ?

 1200 साल बाद, भी जहां उस क्षेत्र में सब कुछ हेलिकॉप्टर से ले जाया जाता है I JCB के बिना आज भी वहां एक भी ढांचा खड़ा नहीं होता है। यह मंदिर वहीं खड़ा है और न सिर्फ खड़ा है, बल्कि बहुत मजबूत है।

 हम सभी को कम से कम एक बार यह सोचना चाहिए।

 वैज्ञानिक अनुमान लगाते हैं कि यदि मंदिर 10वीं शताब्दी में पृथ्वी पर होता, तो यह "हिम युग" की एक छोटी अवधि में होता।

 वाडिया इंस्टीट्यूट ऑफ जियोलॉजी, देहरादून ने केदारनाथ मंदिर की चट्टानों पर लिग्नोमैटिक डेटिंग का परीक्षण किया। यह "पत्थरों के जीवन" की पहचान करने के लिए किया जाता है। परीक्षण से पता चला कि मंदिर 14वीं सदी से लेकर 17वीं सदी के मध्य तक पूरी तरह से बर्फ में दब गया था। हालांकि, मंदिर के निर्माण में कोई नुकसान नहीं हुआ।

 2013 में केदारनाथ में आई विनाशकारी बाढ़ को सभी ने देखा होगा। इस दौरान औसत से 375% अधिक बारिश हुई थी। आगामी बाढ़ में "5748 लोग" (सरकारी आंकड़े) मारे गए और 4200 गांवों को नुकसान पहुंचा। भारतीय वायुसेना ने 1 लाख 10 हजार से ज्यादा लोगों को एयरलिफ्ट किया। सब कुछ ले जाया गया। लेकिन इतनी भीषण बाढ़ में भी केदारनाथ मंदिर का पूरा ढांचा जरा भी प्रभावित नहीं हुआ।

 भारतीय पुरातत्व सोसायटी के मुताबिक, बाढ़ के बाद भी मंदिर के पूरे ढांचे के ऑडिट में 99 फीसदी मंदिर पूरी तरह सुरक्षित है I 2013 की बाढ़ और इसकी वर्तमान स्थिति के दौरान निर्माण को कितना नुकसान हुआ था, इसका अध्ययन करने के लिए "आईआईटी मद्रास" ने मंदिर पर "एनडीटी परीक्षण" किया। साथ ही कहा कि मंदिर पूरी तरह से सुरक्षित और मजबूत है।

 यदि मंदिर दो अलग-अलग संस्थानों द्वारा आयोजित एक बहुत ही "वैज्ञानिक और वैज्ञानिक परीक्षण" में उत्तीर्ण नहीं होता है, तो आज के समीक्षक आपको सबसे अच्छा क्या कहता ?

 मंदिर के अक्षुण खड़े रहने के पीछे :

जिस दिशा में इस मंदिर का निर्माण किया गया है व जिस स्थान का चयन किया गया है ये ही प्रमुख कारण हैं I

 दूसरी बात यह है कि इसमें इस्तेमाल किया गया पत्थर बहुत सख्त और टिकाऊ होता है। खास बात यह है कि इस मंदिर के निर्माण के लिए इस्तेमाल किया गया पत्थर वहां उपलब्ध नहीं है, तो जरा सोचिए कि उस पत्थर को वहां कैसे ले जाया जा सकता था। उस समय इतने बड़े पत्थर को ढोने के लिए इतने उपकरण भी उपलब्ध नहीं थे। इस पत्थर की विशेषता यह है कि 400 साल तक बर्फ के नीचे रहने के बाद भी इसके "गुणों" में कोई अंतर नहीं है।

 आज विज्ञान कहता है कि मंदिर के निर्माण में जिस पत्थर और संरचना का इस्तेमाल किया गया है, तथा जिस दिशा में बना है उसी की वजह से यह मंदिर इस बाढ़ में बच पाया।

 केदारनाथ मंदिर "उत्तर-दक्षिण" के रूप में बनाया गया है। जबकि भारत में लगभग सभी मंदिर "पूर्व-पश्चिम" हैं। विशेषज्ञों के अनुसार, यदि मंदिर "पूर्व-पश्चिम" होता तो पहले ही नष्ट हो चुका होता। या कम से कम 2013 की बाढ़ में तबाह हो जाता। लेकिन इस दिशा की वजह से केदारनाथ मंदिर बच गया है।

 इसलिए, मंदिर ने प्रकृति के चक्र में ही अपनी ताकत बनाए रखी है। मंदिर के इन मजबूत पत्थरों को बिना किसी सीमेंट के "एशलर" तरीके से एक साथ चिपका दिया गया है। इसलिए पत्थर के जोड़ पर तापमान परिवर्तन के किसी भी प्रभाव के बिना मंदिर की ताकत अभेद्य है।

 टाइटैनिक के डूबने के बाद, पश्चिमी लोगों ने महसूस किया कि कैसे "एनडीटी परीक्षण" और "तापमान" ज्वार को मोड़ सकते हैं।

 लेकिन भारतीय लोगों ने यह सोचा और यह 1200 साल पहले परीक्षण किया I

क्या केदारनाथ उन्नत भारतीय वास्तु कला का ज्वलंत उदाहरण नहीं है?

 2013 में, मंदिर के पिछले हिस्से में एक बड़ी चट्टान फंस गई और पानी की धार विभाजित हो गई I मंदिर के दोनों किनारों का तेज पानी अपने साथ सब कुछ ले गया लेकिन मंदिर और मंदिर में शरण लेने वाले लोग सुरक्षित रहे I जिन्हें अगले दिन भारतीय वायुसेना ने एयरलिफ्ट किया था।

 सवाल यह नहीं है कि आस्था पर विश्वास किया जाए या नहीं। लेकिन इसमें कोई संदेह नहीं है कि मंदिर के निर्माण के लिए स्थल, उसकी दिशा, वही निर्माण सामग्री और यहां तक ​​कि प्रकृति को भी ध्यान से विचार किया गया था जो 1200 वर्षों तक अपनी संस्कृति और ताकत को बनाए रखेगा।

 हम पुरातन भारतीय विज्ञान की भारी यत्न के बारे में सोचकर दंग रह गए हैं I शिला जिसका उपयोग 6 फुट ऊंचे मंच के निर्माण के लिए किया गया है कैसे मन्दिर स्थल तक लायी गयी I

 आज तमाम बाढ़ों के बाद हम एक बार फिर केदारनाथ के उन वैज्ञानिकों के निर्माण के आगे नतमस्तक हैं, जिन्हें उसी भव्यता के साथ 12 ज्योतिर्लिंगों में सबसे ऊंचा होने का सम्मान मिलेगा।

 यह एक उदाहरण है कि वैदिक हिंदू धर्म और संस्कृति कितनी उन्नत थी। उस समय हमारे ऋषि-मुनियों यानी वैज्ञानिकों ने वास्तुकला, मौसम विज्ञान, अंतरिक्ष विज्ञान, आयुर्वेद में काफी तरक्की की थी।

 इसलिए मुझे गर्व है कि मैं भारतीय हूँ।       

 तथा भारतीय संस्कृति हमारी धरोहर है और उसी आस्था व विश्वास पर भारत को गर्व है जिसे सम्पूर्ण विश्व अचरज से देखता है किन्तु अधिपत्य स्वीकार करने से बचता है अनेक बार हमारी संस्कृति विश्व को झकझोर देती है किन्तु विश्व गुरू मानने से परहेज करते है ।                      

हमारी विरासत हमारी संस्कृति,आस्था व विश्वास है जो सदैव मजबूत व बुलंद रहेगा ।

 परमात्मा शब्द नही जो तुम्हे किताब में मिलेगा..

परमात्मा मूर्ति नही जो तुम्हे मंदिर में मिलेगा..

परमात्मा इंसान नही जो तुम्हे समाज में मिलेगा..

"परमात्मा जीवन है जो तुम्हे अपने भीतर मिलेगा ।

जय शिव शंकर

APJ - THE MAN

APJ
*By Wg Cdr Nasir Hanfee (Rtd)*

This was way back in 1998. Our PSLV missile program was in full swing . But it was being done clandestinely to avoid detection by US spy satellites . The program director was Dr APJ Abdul Kalam, who we did not recognize at that time .

The cryogenic engines used were secretly shipped to Chennai port from where they were airlifted by our heavy lift helicopter..

More than half-a-century after humiliation in the 1962 war, India is still not prepared to take on the Chinese dragon.

Every now and then, that dragon flexes its muscles, reminding India the threat persists, says Virendra Kapoor.

Do they ever learn?

Within minutes of the top secret Henderson Brooks report into the 1962 Chinese debacle being posted on a Web site, the government moved fast to block access.
