 In this conference, we should be able to reach a conclusion by intensively discussing the theoretical and physical aspects of using information and technology in a new way relative to time and era.

New Delhi.:The historic conference of SAARC Journalists Forum, an international organization of journalists in South Asian countries, is being held in New Delhi, the capital of India, on January 10 and 11, 2023.

With the special support of Tegh Bahadur Khalsa College, University of Delhi, SAARC journalists are working intensively to complete this conference in a grand manner in the auditorium hall of the same college.

On this occasion, I would like to remember all those journalists around the world who sacrificed their lives for justice and freedom. I would like to express my gratitude to all the respectable people and friends who have directly or indirectly helped us to bring our organization to this day.

The history of SAARC Journalists Forum is not very long, we started it in 2016 and formally established it in India in 2019. In this sense, this organization was born in India, the largest democratic country in the world and we are organising the first international journalists conference in New Delhi in the country where we have been founded.

We have organized two international journalists  conferences in Bihar, India. If we count those conferences, this conference going to be held in Delhi is the third one, although this conference is the first after the official establishment of SAARC Journalists Forum.

There are many dimensions and characteristics of this conference, but I think it is necessary for this conference to guide the two main topics.

First, the full use or enjoyment of press and freedom of expression in South Asian countries and secondly, the establishment of peace in the region. There are many challenges facing us in this region, but if these two issues are resolved, no one will be able to stop us from achieving stability, development and prosperity in this region.

The 21st century is also the century of information, so it is necessary to review, analyze and research its history, present and future in this conference. In this conference, we should be able to reach a conclusion by intensively discussing the theoretical and physical aspects of using information and technology in a new way relative to time and era.

Delhi :Taking note of the 14 per cent vote share of AAP in the recently concluded Gujarat polls, Delhi Chief Minister and AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal said that winning 5 seats was as difficult as “milking an ox”.

His statements came while chairing the National Council meeting of Aam Adami Party (AAP) at Calista Resort in Kapashera on Sunday. “In one year we got Punjab, won the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), 2 MLAs in Goa and 5 MLAs with 14 per cent vote share in Gujarat. In reference to the Gujarat success, one person told me that I milked an ox. Everyone can milk a cow but we milked an ox,” quipped Kejriwal.

Exuding confidence, he further added, “Our government will be formed in Gujarat in 2027.”

The Aam Aadmi Party National Council and National Executive met on Sunday for the first time after AAP attained its national status. In National Council, party leaders discussed various political issues and passed resolutions. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal also asked the people to boycott Chinese goods.

Slamming the Modi government, he said, the government does not care about the lives of soldiers. Indian soldiers prevented Chinese troops from entering the Indian territory last week during a border face-off that led to injuries on both sides, the government said earlier this week.

The recent skirmish was the first since deadly clashes in June 2020 when Indian and Chinese troops were involved in hand-to-hand combat in the Galwan Valley of Ladakh, in which 20 Indian soldiers lost their lives.

In the present discourse of events, Kejriwal alleged, “Who are buying the goods of China? What is the compulsion of BJP to buy goods from China? Can’t we increase our indigenous production? We buy the same stuff from China which could be produced in our country.”

Adding further he said, “The government is driving away the people of India and hugging the people of China. Traders and industrialists are leaving India.”

At the event, Kejriwal also categorically pointed out the difference between AAP and other parties. “One party is enmeshed in corruption, whereas the other party promotes hooliganism and provides shelter to the goons. People can see that AAP stands for honesty and impartiality.”

 Deshratna Dr.Rajendra Prasad Smriti Samman” has been awarded.

  Article - Govind Patel, Manager (Public Relations), Chhattisgarh State Power Generation Company

 Chhattisgarh achieved a new milestone in the history of energy production when Chief Minister Mr. Bhupesh Baghel decided to set up a new power plant of 1320 MW on August 25. In fact, this is a historic decision which has added a new dimension to Chhattisgarh. After this decision, it has now become a zero power-cut state which could remain so for many years. This decision is also historic because it will be the largest and most modern plant of Chhattisgarh State Power Generation Company. Now, Chhattisgarh State Power Generation Company has a power generation capacity of 4300 MW.

        Chhattisgarh is the first state in the country, which is known for the Zero Power Cut state. Here consumers are getting 24x7 power supply. Energy consumption is considered to be the biggest indicator of the progress of any region. Energy consumption is increasing rapidly in Chhattisgarh. At the time of the establishment of the state, where per capita energy consumption was 300 units, today it has increased to 2044 units. Keeping in view the demand for energy in future, the state government has taken many major and historic decisions.

Following the instructions of the Chief Minister Mr. Bhupesh Baghel, work has started on preparing an action plan for setting up two supercritical new power generation plants of 660 MW each in Korba West under the Power Generation Company. An expenditure of Rs.12915 crore is estimated for the construction of this plant. Both these units are set to be completed in the financial years 2029 and 2030. For the first time after the establishment of the state, a power plant of such capacity is being set up. This shows the foresight of Chief Minister Mr. Bhupesh Baghel.

The land of Chhattisgarh has immense mineral resources. Chhattisgarh is third in the country in terms of coal reserves. These natural resources are being used in power plants across the country. But the residents of Chhattisgarh do not get its benefit. If industries related to mineral resources are established here, then the people of this place get direct benefits from it.

The cabinet has taken another major decision in the field of generating electricity from water. Chhattisgarh State Hydroelectric Project (Pump Storage Based) Establishment Policy 2022 has been approved in the cabinet. In the existing hydropower plants, rainwater is collected in the dam and electricity is generated by passing it through the turbine. In this old technique, water is used only once.

At present, a new ‘pumped storage’ based hydroelectric power project has been prepared, in which the same water can be used multiple times. In this technique, a configuration of two water reservoirs at different elevations that can generate power as water moves down from one to the other (discharge), passing through a turbine. The system also requires power as it pumps water back into the upper reservoir (recharge). The recharge process can be done using renewable sources of electricity generated from solar energy during the daytime and electricity will be generated by dropping it in the turbine at night. PSH acts similarly to a giant battery because it can store power and then release it when needed. This water will be collected again in the dam. In this way, the same water can be used again and again.

The Chhattisgarh State Power Generation Company is preparing a detailed action plan for the establishment of pumped storage hydroelectric powerhouses at five such places in the state. 7700 MW of electricity can be generated at these five places. An MoU has been signed on November 29 with the central government agency WAPCOS (Water and Power Consultancy Services Limited) to prepare the DPR. Chhattisgarh State Hydroelectric Project (Pumped Storage Based) Establishment Policy 2022 was approved in the cabinet meeting held on September 6 under the chairmanship of the Chief Minister to encourage investment in the establishment of pumped storage-based hydropower projects in the state.

With these two decisions, new employment opportunities will be created for the people of Chhattisgarh. Right from the establishment of the plant to its operation, thousands of people will get direct employment. This plant will be set up with state-of-the-art technology, which will produce very less pollution during operation. This will meet the increasing demand for energy in future. This decision will boost the industrial as well as the agricultural sector which in turn will boost the economy of the state. This decision will be a milestone for Chhattisgarh in the future.

 Farmers expressed gratitude towards Chief Minister
