International Mother’s Day 2021: Celebrated around the world as a day to honour mothers, and motherly bonds within the family, International Mother’s Day is an important occasion that falls on the second Sunday of May every year. As such, it does not have a fixed date, and this year, it will be celebrated on May 9.

Why is it celebrated?
Mothers deserve to be celebrated every day. Not just in India but even around the world, they do not often get their due. Their tireless contributions towards the family, the many sacrifices made by them are worthy of a mention and acknowledgement. Mother’s Day, as such, comes as a reminder to think about mothers, and mother-like figures in our life, who inspire us every day, and make us want to be better people.

History
It is believed the modern Mother’s Day celebration first began in the US, when a woman by the name of Anna Jarvis wanted the day to be commemorated because her own mother had expressed such a desire.

When she passed away, Jarvis took up the initiative and held a memorial for her, circa 1908, three years after her death. It was done at St Andrew’s Methodist Church in West Virginia. It is said while she herself did not attend it, she sent a telegram to the attendees, highlighting the significance of the day, along with five hundred white carnations.

What started as Jarvis’ way of honouring her mother, got picked up by other countries over the years, as a way to love, cherish and honour mothers everywhere.

Today, with a pandemic raging on, it is all the more important for you to hold your mother close, and tell her how much she means to you. If you have someone who is like a mother to you, remind them of their importance, and do something special for them — like play them their favourite movie, cook them a meal, or simply pamper them — today.

Happy Mother’s Day 2021

Nagpur: Over a 100 trees planted by National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) during state government’s ambitious plantation drive are being chopped by the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Ltd (MSEDCL), complain environmentalists.

In the last fortnight, two incidents have come to the fore where large number of fully-grown trees along national highways were ruthlessly pruned. While the first incident took place at NH-7 near Kamptee some days back, the second incident recently took place on NH-69 near Saoner.

Photographic evidence shared by activists shows that trees of different species were brutally chopped off from the main stem. According to them, MSEDCL has powers to trim branches in case they pose a threat to overhead electric wires. “This right has been given to electricity distribution agencies across the country. However, instead of trimming required branches, MSEDCL completely cut the trees along national highways near Nagpur,” said green activist Shrikant Deshpande.

He further alleged that in rural areas it is easier to harm green cover. “In Nagpur, we are alert and so are the citizens. The awareness about importance of saving trees is increasing. However along national highways, there is no scrutiny and the agency took advantage of that,” said Deshpande.

Adding that the green cover in rural areas too is depleting, Deshpande added, “Trees along highways act as a barrier in controlling air pollution. They are also habitats of various species of birds.”

Sources learnt that NHAI officials too were opposed to the action as the trees were planted and maintained by them. According to activists, NHAI should file a police complaint in the matter. NHAI officials confirmed that trees were being felled by MSEDCL and that they will take initiate necessary action. MSEDCL officials did not respond to calls.

This is not the first time that trees under overhead wires were cut. “This has become a repeated phenomenon. We understand that branches pose a threat to cables and can lead to a breakdown and interrupted power supply. MSEDCL should sensitize its workers to not cut entire trees but only trim the required branches,” said Deshpande. Ahead of monsoon, MSEDCL is trimming and cutting trees under overhead wires as its routine activity.

While Online Banking Fraud — where miscreants will pose as your bank officials and try to derive your credentials, PIN, OTO on various pretexts — is the most common offence when it comes to cyber crime, Sextortion — a serious crime that occurs when someone threatens to distribute your private and sensitive material if you don’t provide them images of a sexual nature, sexual favours, or money — is the most treading crime these days.

Besides, Job Fraud, OLX Fraud, Social Media Fraud, Sympathy Fraud, Identity Theft, Mobile Applications Fraud, Cyber Terrorism, Hacking, Data Theft, Phishing (It involves sending fraudulent emails sending customers to a fake website that looks like their bank’s), Vishing (This term comes from the combination of two words: voice and phishing. It refers to the type of threat that involves a fraudulent phone call using information previously obtained online), Smishing (Just as phone calls are a means to try to trick customers, so are messages on WhatsApp or text messages), Child Porn, Online Gambling, Illegal Trade, Software Piracy etc are the key offences.

Awareness is best prevention: Sr PI Ashok Bagul
“Significant amount of cyber crimes are attributed to human errors. Social engineering is a current favourite tactic among cyber criminals. The accused use psychological manipulation to convince victims to willingly or unwittingly surrender their private data which is then subverted for nefarious purposes. Hence, awareness is the best preventive measures when it comes to cyber crimes,” says Dr. Bagul.

नागपूर: ‘मला काही होत नाही, कोरोना माझे काही करू शकत नाही’ अशा गैरसमजात भाजपा कार्यकर्त्यांनी राहू नये. गाफील राहू नका आणि लोकांचेही कोरोनाच्या संसर्गापासून संरक्षण करा. तसेच जोपर्यंत संपूर्ण शहर आणि जिल्ह्यात सर्व नागरिकांना लसीकरण होत नाही, तोपर्यंत कोरोनापासून संरक्षण मिळणार नाही, असे प्रतिपादन केंद्रीय महामार्ग वाहतूक व परिवहन मंत्री नितीन गडकरी यांनी केले.

शनिवारी सायंकाळी भाजपाच्या आभासी बैठकीत ना. गडकरी बोलत होते. या बैठकीला माजी मुख्यमंत्री व विद्यमान विरोधीपक्ष नेते देवेंद्र फडणवीस, शहर अध्यक्ष आ. प्रवीण दटके, खा. डॉ. विकास महात्मे, प्रदेश सरचिटणीस चंद्रशेखर बावनकुळे, आ. कृष्णा खोपडे, आ. विकास कुंभारे, आ. मोहन मते उपस्थित होते. जगभरात घडणार्‍या घटना पाहता आणि काही काळ थांबून पुन्हा कोरोनाची नवीन लाट येण्याची भीती अजून असताना आपण पूर्व तयारीत असणे गरजेचे आहे. संक्रमण रोखण्यासाठी काटेकोरपणे नियम पाळले गेले पाहिजे. कोविडचे ‘साईड इफेक्ट’ आता सुरु झाले आहेत. त्याचीही काळजी सर्वांनी घेणे आवश्यक आहे, असेही ना. गडकरी म्हणाले.

हॉस्पिटल व कोविड सेंटर सुरु व्हावेत असे कार्यकर्त्यांना वाटते पण ते खूप जोखमीचे काम आहे. त्यामुळे अस्तित्वात असलेल्या हॉस्पिटलमध्येच रुग्णशय्या वाढविणे हेच चांगले आहे. ÷एम्समध्ये 600 ते 700 रुग्णशय्या ऑक्सीजनसह आता व्यवस्था होत आहे. विदर्भात सर्वत्र आवश्यक ती उपकरणे पुरविण्याचा आपला प्रयत्न आहे. ही उपकरणे कशी हाताळावी यासाठी तालुकास्तरावर प्रशिक्षणाची गरज असल्याचेही ना. गडकरी म्हणाले.

सध्या दररोज 270 ते 275 मे.टन ऑक्सीजनची शहराला गरज आहे. अनेक ठिकाणांहून आपण ऑक्सीजन मिळविला आहे. 6-7 रुग्णालयांना तर सीएसआर निधीतून ऑक्सीजनसाठी आपण मदत केली. हवेतून ऑक्सीजन मिळविणार्‍या प्लाण्टच्या क्षेत्रात आपण स्वयंपूर्ण व्हावे. त्यामुळे तिसर्‍यांदा येणार्‍या संकटाचा मुकाबला करण्यासाठी आपल्याला भटकंती करावी लागणार नाही. रक्तपेढ्यांना रक्तदानाच्या माध्यमातून रक्तपुरवठा आणि प्लाझमा पुरवठा केला जावा. अ‍ॅम्ब्युलन्ससाठी सामान्य माणसाचे होत असलेले शोषण लक्षात घेता प्रत्येक प्रभागात अ‍ॅम्ब्युलन्स उपलब्ध व्हावी यादृष्टीने तयारी करावी लागेल. विदर्भात प्रत्येक जिल्ह्यात 10 याप्रमाणे 100 ते 125 अ‍ॅम्ब्युलन्स स्वयंसेवी संस्थांना देण्याचा विचार आपण करीत आहोत, असेही ना. गडकरी म्हणाले.

रेमडेसीवीरचा तुटवडा लक्षात घेता वर्धा येथून या इंजेक्शनची निर्मिती सुरु झाली आहे. औषध व अन्नावाचून ज्या लोकांची स्थिती बिकट आहे, त्यांना मदत करावी. नवीन लसीकरण केंद्र सुरु करण्यासाठी शहरातील मॉलमधील पार्किंगच्या जागा या केंद्रासाठी वापरता येऊ शकतात. यामुळे लोकांना उन्हात उभे राहण्याची गरज पडणार नाही. येत्या महिनाभरात जिल्ह्यातील एकही व्यक्ती लसीकरणाशिवाय राहणार नाही, यासाठी आपल्याला प्रयत्न करायचे आहेत. रुग्णांच्या नातेवाईकांचा कुणीही गैरफायदा घेऊ नये याकडेही लक्ष द्यावे लागेल. तसेच आपण विविध संस्थांना दिलेली उपकरणे वापरली जात आहेत की नाही, याकडेही लक्ष देणे आवश्यक असल्याचे ना. गडकरी म्हणाले.

स्वत: काळजी घ्या, लोकांचे संसर्गापासून रक्षण करा केंद्रीय मंत्री नितीन गडकरी यांचे कार्यकर्त्यांना आवाहन

Today’s Petrol price in Nagpur is ₹ 97.74 per litre- Current Diesel Price in Nagpur is ₹ 87.72 per Litre

Nagpur: Petrol and diesel prices on Monday hit record highs across the country after rates were increased for the fifth time in a week, following which Maharashtra joined Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh in the league of states where petrol rates breached the Rs 100-a-litre mark.

Petrol price was hiked by 26 paise a litre and diesel by 33 paise per litre, according to a price notification by state-owned fuel retailers.

This was the fifth increase in prices since May 4, when the state-owned oil firms ended an 18-hiatus in rate revision during assembly elections in states like West Bengal.

The increase took petrol and diesel prices to their highest-ever level. In Delhi, petrol now comes for Rs 91.53 per litre and diesel is priced at Rs 82.06 per litre.

While petrol prices had crossed the Rs 100-mark in some places in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh a few days back, Maharashtra’s Parbhani joined the league on Monday. Petrol in Parbhani was priced at Rs 100.20 a litre, while in Bhopal it came for Rs 99.55 a litre.

The fuel is sold at Rs 102.42 a litre in Sri Ganganagar district of Rajasthan and at Rs 102.12 in Anuppur of Madhya Pradesh.

This is the second time this year that rates in some parts have crossed the Rs 100-a litre mark. Rates had breached the physiological mark for the first time in mid-February.

Fuel prices differ from state to state depending on the incidence of local taxes such as VAT and freight charges. Rajasthan levies the highest value-added tax (VAT) on petrol in the country, followed by Madhya Pradesh.

In five increases in the last one week, petrol price has risen by Rs 1.14 per litre and diesel by Rs 1.33 – more than neutralising all of the reduction that came between March 24 and April 15.

After raising petrol price by a record Rs 21.58 per litre and diesel by Rs 19.18 since the government raised excise duty to an all-time high in March last year, state-owned fuel retailers, IOC, BPCL and HPCL had reduced petrol price by 67 paise a litre and diesel by 74 paise per litre effected between March 24 and April 15.

Oil companies, who have in recent months resorted to unexplained freeze in rate revision, had hit a pause button after cutting prices marginally on April 15.

This coincided with electioneering hitting peak to elect new governments in five states including West Bengal.
