FROM THE

CHIEF GUEST'S DESK

ADV. VAIBHANSHU JOSHI

SUCCESS IS NOT THE ENLIGHTENING SPEECH BY MR
FINAL; FAILURE IS VAIBHANSHU JOSHI STARTED WITH HIM
NOT FATAL: IT IS GIVING HIS REGARDS TO ALL THE
THE COURAGE TO DIGNITARIES PRESENT. HE THEN GAVE A
CONTINUE THAT BACKGROUND ABOUT HIMSELF WHERE HE
INFORMED THE (COMMITTEE?) ABOUT HIS
COUNTS OUTSTANDING CAREER. HE HAS AMASSED A
VAST AMOUNT OF KNOWLEDGE AND
EXPERIENCE VIA BEING A BOARD MEMBER
OF THE NATIONAL BAL BHAVAN (1999-2004)
MEMBER OF THE FIRST PAID NEWS
COMMITTEE APPOINTED BY THE PRESS
COUNCIL OF INDIA (1996). HE IS CURRENTLY
AN EDUCATOR TEACHING LAW TO IAS, IPS
AND JUDGES.
LAW IS OMNIPOTENT, AND INDIA HAS THE
POTENTIAL TO OUTSOURCE PROFESSIONAL
LAW EXPERTS WORLDWIDE. THIS IS BECAUSE
OF OUR ACCEPTABILITY OF DIFFERENT
LANGUAGES. LAW IS THE ART OF
PRESENTING OUR KNOWLEDGE AND
INFORMATION TO SOMEONE ELSE. PRESS
REPORTING AND LAW GO HAND IN HAND;
BOTH HAVE THE CAPACITY OF INFLUENCING
EACH OTHER.
MR VAIBHANSHU JOSHI ALSO HIGHLIGHTED
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE UNIVERSAL
DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS (UDHR),
THE DOCUMENT THAT MENTIONS THE
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF A PERSON, AND
THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON THE
RIGHTS OF THE CHILD (UNCRC).
LAW IS SOMETHING THAT EVERYONE
SHOULD BE AWARE OF. IT SHOULD NOT BE
TREATED AS A SIMPLE SUBJECT BUT RATHER
A LIFE SKILL. OUR PERSONALITIES SHOULD
REFLECT OUR AWARENESS OF THE LAW.

FROM THE

GUEST SPEAKER'S SESSION

MR SAKSHAM AGRAWAL

HE SPEAKS AND GUIDES THE

DELEGATES ABOUT THE DO'S &

DONT'S IN A MUN. MUN IS A

PLATFORM THAT PROVIDES YOU

WITH ENDLESS OPPORTUNITIES IN

AN ARRAY OF WAYS BE IT

SPEAKING, WRITING, TEAMWORK,

DIPLOMACY IN A CONTEXTUALISED

AND STANDARDISED PATTERN.

PARTICIPATING IN SUCH EVENTS

AND CONFERENCES WILL TAKE YOU

A LONG WAY IN FORGING POSITIVE

RELATIONSHIPS WITH PEOPLE

COMING FROM DIFFERENT WALKS

OF LIFE. PLATFORMS LIKE THESE

GIVES YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO

VOICE YOUR OPINION AND ALLOWS

YOU TO WIDEN THE HORIZON OF

YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS. I

BELIEVE IN THE WORDS “ IF IF OPPORTUNITY
DOESN'T KNOCK
OPPORTUNITY DOESN’T KNOCK YOUR DOOR, BANG
THE DOOR OF A
YOUR DOOR, BANG THE DOOR OF A OPPORTUNITY

OPPORTUNITY” AND THE

POTENTIAL TO DO THAT CAN BE

ACQUIRED FROM PLATFORMS LIKE

THESE.

I WISH THAT EVERYONE WHO

TAKES PART IN MUNS LEARNS OR

ACQUIRES SOMETHING THAT CAN

ONE DAY PROVE TO BE THEIR

BIGGEST STRENGTH IN A

ACHIEVING THE IMPOSSIBLE.

HAPPY MUNING!

DREAMING ABOUT THAT ONE DAY

BY PREKSHA VATSA

ALL BOXED UP,
PACKED AND READY TO GO,
TO SHIPPED AWAY,
TO THE PLACE THAT HOLDS EVERY KID'S DREAMS AND
HOPES.

IT WAS ON A VENTILATOR FOR SO LONG,
IT KILLED ME TO SEE IT SO TORN,
BUT NOW, IT’S OUT OF ITS MISERY ONCE N FOR ALL,
NOW ITS FOREVER GONE.

IT’S MY FAULT, I LET IT HAPPEN,
STOOD BY THE SIDELINES, AS THE GAP WIDENED,
THIS MAKES ME A WILLING ACCOMPLICE,
TO THE MURDER THAT I WATCHED HAPPEN.

I STAYED SILENT FOR TOO LONG,
NO MORE SHALL I BITE MY TONGUE.
I APOLOGIZE, FOR THE BLOOD I SPILLED,
I APOLOGIZE FOR THE PART I PLAYED,
I APOLOGIZE FOR THE ROOM IN MY HEART
THAT HAS BEEN EMPTIED.

A LITTLE LATE I KNOW IT IS,
SOMEONE VERY DEAR I AM GOING TO MISS.
MY MOM TUCKED IT IN A NIGHT,
IT FELT SAFE WITH HER FOREHEAD KISS.

I GOT BLINDED BY THE
LIGHT OF SOMETHING SO MEW, THAT
I FORGOT ABOUT SOMETHING SO PURE, SO TRUE,
I FORGOT ABOUT YOU.

YOU- THE LITTLE KID THAT ONCE USED LIVE IN MY HEART,
YOU- THE PURE SOUL THAT ONCE USED TO BE MY FUEL,
YOU- THE IMPULSIVE MIND THAT ONCE USED TO MOVE
LIKE WIND
YOU- THE KID, THE SOUL, THE MIND THAT ONCE UPON A
TIME,
WAS ALL MINE.

YOU NEVER STOPPED TO SEE IF YOU LOSE OR WIN,
YOU NEVER CARED IF YOU LOST OR WON.
BUT, I FORGOT YOUR LESSONS,
AND I STOPPED, DESPERATELY WANTING TO WIN.

YOU INTO THE NIGHT,
I GUESS FOR MY HORRIBLE CRIMES,
THIS SERVES ME RIGHT…

A LETTER TO THE KING MAKER

BY SAMARTH SINGH THAKUR

THE ESTEEMED KING MAKER OF MY NATION, THE MOST

IMPORTANT PART OF THIS DEMOCRACY, THE CITIZENS

OF THIS NATION, I WANT TO DRAW YOUR ATTENTION

TOWARDS THE DISCUSSION THAT HAPPENED IN THE

LOWER HOUSE OF THE PARLIAMENT TODAY, WHICH CAN

BE TURN OUT TO BECOME A MAJOR ROLE IN INDIA’S

FUTURE.

TODAY IN THE HOUSE WE SAW A VERY LITTLE

PARTICIPATION FROM THE PARLIAMENTS CONSIDERING

IT TO BE A NON-EFFECTIVE DISCUSSION. THE LETTER

DOES NOT TARGET A PARTICULAR PARTY BUT, SOME

REAL BIG NAMES OF THE NATION LISTED BELOW :

NARENDRA MODI, YOGI ADITYANATH, RAHUL GANDHI,

SONIA GANDHI, ASARUDDIN OWAISI

BUT TO THE CONTRARY OF MINDSET OF THE ABOVE

MENTIONED PARLIAMENTS, THE DISCUSSION

COMMITTEE HAS WAS VERY FRUITFULL AND FOCUSED

MAINLY ON THE DEVELOPEMNT OF OUR NATION BY THE

YEAR 2030.

WE SAW DISCUSSIONS ON ELECTRIC VEHICLES,

ELECTION PROCESS, ONE NATION POLICY, WATER

SCARCITY POPULATION MANAGEMENT IN

RESERVATIONS, BUT TO A SURPRISE ONE OF THE MOST

IMPORTANT TOPIC THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN BROUGHT

UP IS ‘DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES IN THE NATION’,

ACCORDING TO INTERNATIONAL AND NATIONAL WELL

KNOWN RESEARCH HOUSES IT IS 87.89% POSSIBLE

THAT BY 2030 THE DEMOGRAPHY OF INDIA WILL

CHANGE IN THE FOLLOWING MANNER.

“INDIA WILL FACE THE SAME SITUATION IRAN FACED,

SYRIA FACED, INDONASIA FACED, BANGLADESH FACED,

PAKISTAN FACED ALL THESE COUNTRIES FIRSTLY HAD

MUSLIMS IN MINORITY AND SLOWLY WITH THE TIME

WHEN ISLAM CAME IN MAJORITY THE WORLD SAW ALL

THE INHUMANE ACTIVITY AND PRACTICES DONE BY

THOSE PEOPLE” IS A SHORT PARAGRAPH FROM AN

INTERNATIONAL NEWS AGENCY.

LOOKING AT THE DATA, WE FEAR THE SAME CONDITION

OF INDIA IN THE NEAR FUTURE. SO THIS IS A URGE

FROM A RESPONSIBLE CITIZEN TO OTHER RESPONSIBLE

CITIZENS OF THIS NATION TO LOOK INTO THIS

PRESSURISE GOVERNMENT FRO LOOKING INTO THIS

PROBLEM AND TAKE NECESSARY DECESIONS TO CURE

THIS.I WISH THAT EVERYONE WHO TAKES PART IN

MUNS LEARNS OR ACQUIRES SOMETHING THAT CAN

ONE DAY PROVE TO BE THEIR BIGGEST STRENGTH IN A

ACHIEVING THE IMPOSSIBLE.

LAMENT OF THE LAYMAN

BY AMISHA PATHAK

LAYING IN THE BED,
DOING THE CHORUS
I PONDER OF THE WORLD,
MY PEERS PROJECTED BEFORE
THE TALE OF THE MAHATMA,
THE VALOR OF THE IRON MAN,
THE LITERATURE OF THE GURUDEV,
THE DARE OF THE HERALD OF NEW
AGE.
BUT HERE I AM TODAY,
BURDENED WITH THE DUBIETY OF MY
HEIRS,
IN THE DILEMMA OF EITHER
ASCERTAINING THEM WITH THE
PRACTICALITIES OF THE AGE
OR CORROBORATING THE WRONG
AND FORECASTING MY CHAUVINISM
AS MY PRIORS DID.
MY TREPIDATION IS CAUSED BY
THE ACTUALITY OF POLITICS,
THE UNRESOLVED PROBLEMS,
PROGNOSED AS THE VISION
FOR EVERY UPCOMING EPOCH,
THE CAUSALITIES OF UNEMPLOYMENT
WITH THE BRIGHT TUTEES.
I WISH MY PRECARIOUSNESS
DISSOLVES SOON,
MY NATION AGAIN BECOME A BOON.
SO THAT I CAN FLEX WITH PRIDE,
THAT MY COUNTRY IS IN THE TOP
LINE.
THE UPCOMING GENERATIONS CAN
TRUST,
THAT MATTER THEIR FUTURE IS IN
THE RIGHT CONDUCT.

SEXUAL RIGHTS OF WOMEN

BY PREKSHA VATSA

WOMEN FORM THE MAJORITY OF THE WORLD’S POOREST PEOPLE AND THE NUMBER
OF WOMEN LIVING IN RURAL POVERTY HAS INCREASED BY 50% SINCE 1975. WOMEN
WORK TWO-THIRDS OF THE WORLD’S WORKING HOURS AND PRODUCE HALF OF THE
WORLD’S FOOD, YET THEY EARN ONLY 10% OF THE WORLD’S INCOME AND OWN LESS
THAN 1% OF THE WORLD’S PROPERTY. VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN THROUGHOUT THE
WORLD AND IN ALL CULTURES PREVAILS ON AN UNIMAGINABLE SCALE, AND
WOMEN’S ACCESS TO JUSTICE IS OFTEN PAIRED WITH DISCRIMINATORY OBSTACLES –
IN LAW AS WELL AS IN PRACTICE. THIS DISCRIMINATION IS TO AN EXTENT WHERE IN
SOME COUNTRIES WOMEN CAN NOT WOMEN, UNLIKE MEN, CANNOT DRIVE, DRESS AS
THEY LIKE, WORK AT NIGHT, INHERIT PROPERTY AND EVEN GIVE EVIDENCE IN COURT.
APART FROM THESE THERE ARE CERTAIN SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS THAT
SOME COUNTRIES DON’T ENTITLE WOMEN WITH!
INDIA, THE LAND THAT WORSHIPS WOMEN, CALLS THEM THE INCARNATION OF
GODDESS LAXMI, IS ONE OF THE TOP OFFENDERS OF WOMEN’S RIGHTS. THERE WAS
OBSERVED A 30% RISE IN THE RATE OF CRIMES AGAINST WOMEN. NEARLY 31,000
COMPLAINTS OF CRIMES COMMITTED AGAINST WOMEN WERE RECEIVED BY THE
NATIONAL COMMISSION FOR WOMEN (NCW) LAST YEAR WHEREAS IN 2020 23,722
COMPLAINTS WERE REPORTED. AND THESE ARE THE REPORTED CRIMES, THERE ARE
GOD KNOWS HOW MANY MORE CRIMES THAT GO UNREPORTED. ACCORDING TO THE
NCW DATA OF THE 30,864 COMPLAINTS, A MAXIMUM OF 11,013 WERE RELATED TO THE
RIGHT TO LIVE WITH DIGNITY THAT TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE EMOTIONAL ABUSE OF
WOMEN, FOLLOWED BY THOSE RELATED TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AT 6,633 AND
DOWRY HARASSMENT AT 4,589, ACCORDING TO OFFICIAL NCW DATA.
INDIA IS A COUNTRY WHERE MARRIAGE IS CONSIDERED TO BE A VERY PURE AND
STRONG RELATION. INDIA IS ONE OF THE COUNTRIES WHERE MARITAL RAPE IS NON
CRIMANLIZED. SO, BASICALLY, WHAT THE LAWS STATE IS THAT, ‘YES, IT IS A CRIME TO
RAPE IN OUR COUNTRY BUT, ONCE A WOMEN IS WOMEN IS MARRIED HER SO CALLED
“BETTER HALF” CAN RAPE HER. HE/SHE CAN FORCE SEXUAL PRACTICES ON A WOMEN
AS HE/SHE PLEASES.’ THIS SHOWS HOW DISCRIMINATORY THE LAWS IN INDIA REALLY
ARE. WOMEN DON’T EVEN HAVE SOME BASIC SEXUAL RIGHTS! THEY HAVE TO ABIDE
AS THEIR “BETTER HALF” SAYS OTHERWISE, THEY COULD BE RAPED AND IT WOULD
ALL BE LEGAL. THE AUTHORITIES NEED TO BE REMINDED THAT A WOMAN IS MARRIED
AND NOT SOLD, SHE IS NOT HER SO CALLED “BETTER HALF’S” PROPERTY!
U.S. WOMEN FACE MANY OTHER LEGAL BARRIERS TO ACCESS TO CONTRACEPTION.
FOR EXAMPLE, IN RECENT YEARS, A MOVEMENT HAS EMERGED AMONG CERTAIN
PHARMACISTS TO REFUSE TO FILL WOMEN’S LAWFUL PRESCRIPTIONS FOR BIRTH
CONTROL PILLS AND EMERGENCY CONTRACEPTION.28 RATHER THAN SECURING
WOMEN’S ABILITY TO ACCESS LAWFUL CONTRACEPTION, 17 STATES AND THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT HAVE PASSED LEGISLATION AUTHORIZING HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS
(INCLUDING PHARMACISTS, PHYSICIANS AND OTHERS) TO REFUSE TO PROVIDE
CONTRACEPTION, STERILIZATION OR OTHER REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH SERVICES ON
THE BASIS OF MORAL DISAPPROVAL.

DEALING WITH THE ISSUE OF

MENTAL HEALTH

BY AMISHA PATHAK

IMAGINE YOURSELF FEELING RESTLESS, WITH A SOAR THROAT, TRYING TO MAKE YOUR PEERS
UNDERSTAND THAT HOW YOU DON’T FEEL LIKE BELONGING TO THE SOCIETY AND THE FAMILY
AND EVERY TIME YOU TRY TO PUT YOURS FEET OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT SPACE YOU FEEL
ANXIOUS AND START GETTING PANIC SEEING THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU DOING THEIR LEVEL BEST
TO ACHIEVE THE GOALS THEY HAVE DECIDED FOR THEMSELVES BUT HERE YOU ARE WHO IS
MERELY ABLE TO GET A GOOD NIGHT SLEEP, THE HYPOTHESIS OF YOU FAILING YOUR BOARD
EXAMS TOMORROW AND THE MONSTERS WHICH HAUNT YOU EVERYDAY THAT SIMILAR TO YOUR
MOTHER YOU WILL ALSO FALL OFF YOUR STAIRCASE SOMEDAY AND END UP GETTING PARALYSED
FOR THE REMAINING PART OF YOUR LIFE, BUT NO ONE UNDERSTANDS. ALL THESE ARE NOTHING
BUT JUST THE SYMPTOMS AND MANIFESTATION OF THE MAJOR PSYCHOLOGICAL ILLNESS WHICH A
HUGE NUMBER OF POPULATIONS ARE FACING IN THEIR DAY TO DAY LIVES BRIEFLY COINED BY
THE TERM “MENTAL ILLNESS.”
UNLIKE PHYSICALLY HEALTH, MENTAL HEALTH IS NOT DETERMINED BY IN NO CASE ANY
KIND OF PHYSICAL TESTS; ITS ALL IN THE CONSCIOUS, SUBCONSCIOUS, AND
UNCONSCIOUS MIND. ACCORDING TO A LEADING YOGA GURU AND PROPONENT OF
SPIRITUALITY, JAGADISH “JAGGI” VASUDEV KNOWN BY HONORIFIC TITLE SADGURU – “AS
PEOPLE GET MORE EDUCATED AND COMPLEX IN THEIR MINDS, THEIR ABILITY TO
SUFFER INCREASES, BECAUSE THEY CAN CREATE A GREATER VARIETY OF SUFFERINGS.”
AND THIS IS HIGHLY VISIBLE NOWADAYS.
THE GREATEST CHALLENGE THE WORLD AS A WHOLE HAS FACED SINCE THE WORLD
WAR II, THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAS FURTHER WORSENED THE SCENARIO OF THE
MENTAL WELL BEING OF THE PEOPLE OF THE SOCIETY. ALONG WITH CORONA VIRUS;
CAME THE CULTURE OF RESIDING OURSELVES IN OUR COMFORTABLE SPACES AND
WORKING AND CARRYING OUT OUR LIFE ACTIVITIES WITHOUT ANY INTERACTION WITH
THE OUTSIDE WORLD. IT MADE THE SITUATION OF INDIVIDUALS LIVING ALONE
MISERABLE. BOTH INTROVERTS AND EXTROVERTS STRUGGLED EVERYDAY TO MAINTAIN
THE CONTENTMENT IN THEIR LIVES. UNIMAGINABLE IS THE STATUS OF THE MENTAL
HEALTH OF PEOPLE WHO LOST THEIR JOBS, LEFT WITH POOR HOUSING AND LIFESTYLE,
LOW EDUCATION AND AWARENESS AND WHO FACE GENDER BIASNESS EVERY DAY.
THE WORLD TODAY IS TOGETHER TRYING TO FIGHT THIS ACUTE NON-PHYSICAL DISEASE
TOGETHER THROUGH DIFFERENT FORUMS LIKE THE UNICEF WHICH PROVIDES
PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT TO CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS, CAREGIVERS, FAMILIES AND THE
WIDER COMMUNITY THROUGH A RANGE OF INTERVENTIONS THAT MEET THEIR COMPLEX
NEEDS. BUT IN THE SAME WORLD EXISTS COUNTRIES LIKE BRAZIL WHICH HAS NO
STRATEGY FOR PREVENTION OF SUICIDE BY TEENAGERS AND ADOLESCENTS AND A
CULTURALLY, ETHNICALLY, RELIGIOUSLY AND LINGUISTICALLY RICH COUNTRY, INDIA
WHICH RANKS 139 OUT OF 149 IN THE WORLD HAPPINESS REPORT.
THOUGH IT MAY SEEM LIKE THE WORLD AND ITS LEADERS ARE DOING THEIR LEVEL BEST
FOR BRINGING BACK THE MENTAL PEACE AND STABILITY OF ITS CITIZENS, THEIR
APPROACHES ARE NOT MUCH BENEFICIAL IN ACHIEVING THE DESIRED RESULTS.
MENTAL ILLNESS IS GROWING RAPIDLY, PECULIARLY AMONG THE YOUTH WHICH IS
CONSIDERED THE OPTIMALLY EFFICIENT HUMAN RESOURCE; DAY BY DAY. AND IF NOT
TAKEN WITH CONSEQUENTIAL POLICIES AND THEIR STRICT IMPLEMENTATIONS, HAS A
CAPACITY OF DIMINISHING A BETTER TOMORROW!

A DAY IN UNSC

BY SAMARTH SINGH THAKUR

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ISRAEL AND THE OCCUPIED
PALESTINIAN TERRITORY (OPT) HAS BEEN A COMPLEX AND
INTRICATE ISSUE SINCE THE DISINTEGRATION OF THE
OTTOMAN EMPIRE IN 1917 AND THE UNITED KINGDOM’S RULE
OVER THE REGION.
THE STATE OF ISRAEL DECLARED INDEPENDENCE IN 1948
AND “EXPANDED TO 77% OF THE TERRITORY OF MANDATE
PALESTINE.ISRAEL EXPRESSES CONCERN OVER THE
SECURITY OF ITS RESIDENTS IF NEIGHBORHOODS OF
JERUSALEM ARE PLACED UNDER PALESTINIAN CONTROL.
JERUSALEM HAS BEEN A PRIME TARGET FOR ATTACKS BY
MILITANT GROUPS AGAINST CIVILIAN TARGETS SINCE 1967.
THE CONFLICT BASICALLY REVOLVES AROUND ISRAEL BEING
AN ONLY JEWISH COUNTRY IN THE WORLD AND WITH
ADVANCEMENT IN WEAPONIZATION, TECH INDUSTRY AND
ARE VERY SERIOUS ABOUT THEIR COUNTRY’S SECURITY.
WHEREAS ON THE OTHER HAND PALESTINE IS AN ISLAMIC
COUNTRY BACKED BY A MILITANT GROUP CALLED AS HAMAS
WHO WORKS ONLY ON THE BASIS OF RELIGION AND IS
CONSTANTLY TRYING TO CAPTURE ISRAEL ON THE NAME OF
THEIR SECULAR, RELIGIOUS DESTINATION JERUSALEM,
WHICH IS THE CAPITAL OF ISRAEL.
NOW ISRAEL BEING A DEVELOPED NATION WINS ALL THE
ATTACKS DONE BY HAMAS AND A RESULT PALESTINE
SUFFERS, AND TO CONDEMN THE LOSS, IT COMES UP WITH
POINTS OF HUMAN RIGHTS AND UNFAIR USE OF WEAPONS
ON WHICH ISRAEL HAS ALREADY CLARIFIES THAT THE
SECURITY OF THEIR NATION AND CITIZENS IS THEIR UTMOST
PRIORITY
