Air Purifier - Reasons Why One should Install at home

Pollution is no longer a problem that only exists in school textbooks and environmental summits. Its effects are visible to everyone, whether you lead a lavish lifestyle or struggling with your daily bread. The heavy smog story of Delhi NCR and entire west UP is not old. The whole north India languished to see SUN for several days. Govt. resorted to odd-even for vehicles. Water was sprinkled to make the dust settle. But no respite came for several days. Hence, the need for air purifiers for home has increased, in order to lead a healthy and pollution-free life.

The same is measured in sq.ft. One can chose from clean size ranging from 200 to 750 sq. ft. from Livpure.
Thirdly : if required we can look for additional features like Added features can include caster wheels, handles for easy mobility, digital controls, remote controls, multiple fan speeds, filter change indicators, programmable timers, air quality sensors, and more.

HD Cricket App - A New Cricket App Launched By Holding Willey 




Cricket! – Perhaps one of the most engaging sports in India.

Right!

True cricket fans live for ball-by-ball score updates and even live streaming options if they can have them. Earlier, people had to depend on cellular network providers and subscribe to live score packages, but now, as long as you have internet access you can get live commentary, score updates and even streams on your Android phone and tablets etc.

Living true to the cricket fans and the increasing dependency on mobile, HoldingWilley.com a website devoted to Cricket and all about cricket has launched on 12th May 2016 a whole new experience to surf scores – HW Cricket App

Keeping the above requirements in mind Holding Willey developed HW Cricket - an ‘only scores cricket app’. -
Clean, easy to access and innovatively simple. Therefore no ­- so many sections, so many buttons, so many links, mindless
commentary and a distasteful design.

CSR Initiative by Credit Sudhaar

CSR Initiative by Credit Sudhaar



CSR - Corporate Social responsibility 

Govt. of India made it mandatory from April 2014 for every company, private or public limited, that has a net worth of Rs 500 crore or a turnover of Rs 1,000 crore or net profit of Rs 5 crore, to spend at least 2% of its average net profit for the immediately preceding three financial years on corporate social responsibility activities.

Thus, became CSR as an integral part of Corporates in India. These activities may be from a long list provided in the CSR act and includes eradicating hunger, poverty and malnutrition, promoting preventive healthcare, promoting education and promoting gender equality, setting up homes for women, orphans and the senior citizens etc.

Credit Sudhar & its CSR effort -

Credit Sudhar http://www.creditsudhaar.com - India’s premier credit health management company has also come forward to building a better India with its share of regular CSR activities. Taking forward its initiatives in CSR – it came up with yet another activity aimed at improving the educational infrastructure in the country’s rural areas, a requirement that is central to the growth for any community.

Thought Process:

In today’s times, it is accepted that technology is the way to go, and has become an integral part of life for every individual. The knowledge of basic computer management and the Internet can go a long way in improving productivity in every field. On an individual level, it provides opportunities for people, especially the youth, to embrace technology and thereby provide better employment opportunities.

While there is absolutely no doubt that the Government of India has taken bold and effective steps to digitise schools, the process is not always able, whether in part or entirety, to reach all schools owing to various socio-political factors including but not limited to the small size of student population, extreme rural presence, non-aligned or independent village head candidates etc.

The Activity:

Taking forth its thought process as the integral part of its CSR concept frame, Credit Sudhaar identified one such village – Pimpri – located in Yavatmal  district of Maharashtra; to introduce their campaign of digitising rural schools. The population of this village was not more than 500 individuals, and a significant chunk of the population – over 15 percent – comprised of children between the ages of 0 to 6 years. This made connectivity to schools in villages such as Pimpri even more significant, wherein future generations were being nurtured. Another factor in zeroing in on Pimpri village was the fact that it rightly boasted of a higher literacy rate compared to the rest of Maharashtra, as per the data provided by the Census 2011.

As part of the initiative, the Credit Sudhaar team visited Pimpri village along with the required peripheral. Computers, printer, projector were installed and run in presence of the village sarpanch, village head, the school management committee (comprising of school parents) teachers and student on 11 May 2016.



With this initiative, the teachers were confident to make a vast change in the teaching methodologies that would help students learn better and also learn to manage computers at an earlier age.


The wholehearted and active participation from Team Credit Sudhaar made this CSR initiative highly successful. The team expressed that Credit Sudhaar, under its CSR policies was committed to continued contribution towards betterment of society in whatever little ways it can.

Reflections on A to Z 2016 - Festivals of India

As I said -  30 days - 2 blogs a day – 52 blogs altogether in a month- exhausted right!

Very true, it was lot of writing and the pressure was there. But, especially writing on a topic like festivals of India - it brought lots of insights surfing and searching. And that’s what as a writer anyone  enjoys. 

As this was my second year and I had gone ahead with two posts a day - festivals of India and the second – poetry – tender and soulful. Poetry was more from the heart, but this needed lots of inputs. This really made me realize a lot of fact. A crux of the same is in the post from Q .Queer Facts 

The complete list goes here:

Vijaydashmi 
Wangala, 
Xmas,
Yamdvitiya,
Zagor

As I said earlier now I am looking forward to next year with more varied themes and participation. Till then you all go through the posts and do put your comments. I’ll also relax and go through the same by other participants.  Meet you again next year.

For the reflection on poetry - let the Soul pour : Reflections on A to 2016 - Let the Soul Pour

Z for Zagor




Zagor is an age old traditional festival in Siolim area of Goa, in which Hindus and Christians jointly celebrate the harvest.

Siolim is a small hamlet thirty minutes away from the famous Calangute beach of Goa, On the first Monday after Christmas, Hindu and Christian residents of the waddo, or hamlet, of Dando congregate on an open plot of land to keep a night-long vigil and appease the deity who is believed to protect the village. The zagor, or wake, begins with prayers that are unmistakably Christian, though the sing-song chants are said to have been drawn from the abhangs of Sant Tukaram, Maharashtra's poet-saint. And the wizened priest leading the congregation is a Hindu villager from the toddy-tapper caste who does this just once a year.

Zagor - Night wake

The main priests' annual ritual is preceded by 40 days of abstinence when he stays away from non-vegetarian food and prepares for the zagor with prayers and rehearsals with the villagers. The proceedings begin with a procession from the house of his neighbours, with a coconut ritually offered to the deity. The procession halts at wayside crosses and Hindu shrines, including St Annae's chapel. Traditionally, three hymns are sung by Hindus and Christians at the chapel before the procession moves on. Then the Hindus make offerings of oil while the Catholics offer candles at the chapel.
At prayers before Zagorio, as the formless deity is called, the priest offers salutations to the unity of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. The ritual five hymns are followed by traditional dances and folk theatre enacted by the villagers, hereditary participants whose roles are inherited through generations which marks the essence of the main celebration. Principal characters like the firangi-raja (white lord), mali (gardener), malin (gardener's wife), mahar (untouchable), etc, represent Goan society as it evolved through the years.

Zagor procession

The all-night vigil is also helped by the Konkani tiatr, or theatre, where skits on political and social issues are performed.


Musical performance

People offer oil, candles and even cigarettes and feni (a local intoxicant) in thanksgiving. The khazan-style of agriculture unique to this region enables paddy cultivation, Pisciculture and salt manufacture on the same land, by regulating the ingress of seawater.

With the Siolim zagor now firmly on the tourist agenda, hereditary participants in the zagor have money in their pockets. The festival is now facing its problem with communism and moving towards extinction. Growing prosperity, though, poses a bigger danger. With the spread of education, entire Catholic families are migrating out thereby altering the colour of the zagor.
