Mohali: December18, 2025: (Media Link Team//Hindustan Screen//हिंदुस्तान स्क्रीन Desk)::

People who relied on taxis or cabs for transportation were frustrated. Cab drivers would arrive late at their own discretion and demand more than the agreed-upon fare. They would double the amount or even demand more. People were troubled. The situation worsened during the rainy season.

For those who were frustrated from cab service, good news has arrived for the new year. This good news is related to the launch of Bharat Taxi. It will likely be officially launched on January 1st. This new taxi service is a government-backed, cooperative-operated ride-hailing platform, being launched in collaboration with cooperative institutions (NCDC, IFFCO, AMUL, etc.) and NeGD (Digital India) as an alternative to Ola and Uber. Its aim is to empower drivers, provide affordable service with transparent fares and zero surge pricing, and it is expected to launch in Delhi from January 2026.

Its main features have entered the market with attractive offers. People are enthusiastic and happy about it. They feel a great sense of relief since its announcement. They feel their concerns have been heard.

Most importantly, it is a cooperative model. This platform makes drivers owners, allowing them to receive more than 80% of the fare, providing them with financial stability. They feel that this income belongs to them and not to anyone else.

This new taxi service will offer transparent and affordable fares. There will be no surge pricing, ensuring fair and predictable rates for passengers. People will not feel cheated.

Furthermore, there will be digital integration. It will be integrated with national digital platforms like DigiLocker and UMANG. This will also increase trust among the general public. Currently, people remain apprehensive until they reach their destination.

The new features introduced by Bharat Taxi will also benefit drivers, as this new system is driver-centric. Both the passenger and the driver are taken care of. This system offers drivers the option of better income. It also includes additional benefits. These new features will mean a better life than before. These benefits include provisions for medical assistance and education. This will give drivers a new lease on life, and their families will also experience improved living conditions. They will see and feel the progress.

This new taxi system, launched under the name Bharat Taxi, will also have government support. Large cooperative institutions like NCDC, IFFCO, AMUL, KRIBHCO, NAFED, NABARD, NDDB, and NCEL are promoting it, and NeGD is providing technical support. Its arrival will transform taxi services. People will get a new experience.

The objective is also to create a global standard. To provide a citizen-centric, cooperative alternative to global ride-hailing companies. Its arrival will bring about many new and pleasant experiences for people. After this service is implemented, you will see a new glow on people's faces.

Everyone will feel that realizing the vision of Digital India has become simpler and easier. The time for its launch and progress is constantly approaching. You will soon see a new revolution on the country's roads. Bharat Taxi is bringing about a new change.

सामाजिक न्‍याय एवं अधिकारिता मंत्रालय//Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav//प्रविष्टि तिथि: 24 OCT 2024 8:10 PM by PIB Delhi

वरिष्ठ नागरिक कलाकारों का सम्मान करते हुए भारत की समृद्ध परंपराओं का जश्न 

हमारी सांस्कृतिक पहचान का सार हमारे बुजुर्गों के ज्ञान तथा बुद्धिमत्ता की गहराई में छुपा है:बी.एल. वर्मा

नई दिल्ली: 24 अक्टूबर 2024: (पी आई बी दिल्ली//इनपुट-आराधना सिंह-हिंदुस्तान स्क्रीन डेस्क)::

कृत्रिम बुद्धिमता तो अब कहीं जा के दुनिया के सामने आई है लेकिन भारत में जो असली और सच्ची बौद्धिक क्षमता रही उसे सदियों पहले भी दुनिया जानती भी थी और मानती भी थी। इस संबंध नाम और बहुत से हवाले इतिहास में छुपे पड़े हैं। भारत विश्व गुरु ही था। अखंड ही था। इसके खिलाफ चली गई साज़िशों में सबसे अधिक नुक्सान अपने ही गद्दारों पहुंचाया था। इसके बावजूद उसकी निशानियां अभी बाकी हैं और उस क्षमता के बीज फिर से अपनी मौजूदगी का अहसास करवाने लगे हैं।  इसका ध्यान आया दिल्ली में आयोजित आराधना आयोजन को देख कर। इस पर हमारी टीम के सभी सदस्यों को गर्व हुआ कि आज भी सांस्कृतिक कार्यक्रम 'आराधना' वरिष्ठ नागरिक कलाकारों का सम्मान करते हुए भारत की समृद्ध परंपराओं का जश्न मनाता है।  

सामाजिक न्याय और अधिकारिता मंत्रालय ने आज नई दिल्ली में एक भव्य सांस्कृतिक कार्यक्रम 'आराधना' की मेजबानी की। थीम 'सेलिब्रेटिंग ग्रेसफुल एजिंग - लाइफ बिगिन्स एट 60', इस कार्यक्रम ने वरिष्ठ नागरिक कलाकारों के योगदान पर प्रकाश डाला, सक्रिय उम्र बढ़ने और अंतर-पीढ़ीगत एकजुटता के महत्व पर प्रकाश डाला। 60 वर्ष और उससे अधिक आयु के कलाकारों द्वारा किए गए प्रदर्शन ने भारत की परंपराओं और इसके बुजुर्ग नागरिकों के बीच गहरे सांस्कृतिक संबंधों को सामने लाया, जो लंबे समय से देश की समृद्ध कलात्मक विरासत के संरक्षक रहे हैं।

कार्यक्रम की शुरुआत औपचारिक दीप प्रज्ज्वलन, पारंपरिक मंगलाचरण और राष्ट्रगान के साथ हुई। इस अवसर पर केंद्रीय सामाजिक न्याय और अधिकारिता मंत्रालय के राज्य मंत्री श्री बी.एल. वर्मा मुख्य अतिथि के रूप में उपस्थित थे। एनजीओ अनुग्रह की अध्यक्ष डॉ. आभा चौधरी ने दर्शकों का स्वागत किया, गुरु शिष्य परंपरा को बढ़ावा देने में कार्यक्रम के महत्व पर जोर दिया और उन लोगों को श्रद्धांजलि अर्पित की जिन्होंने भारतीय कला रूपों को संरक्षित करने में अपना जीवन बिताया है।

अपने सम्बोधन में श्री बी.एल. वर्मा ने भारत की सांस्कृतिक पहचान को बनाए रखने में वरिष्ठ नागरिकों की आवश्यक भूमिका के बारे में बात की। उन्होंने टिप्पणी की, “हमारी सांस्कृतिक पहचान का सार हमारे बुजुर्गों के ज्ञान और बुद्धिमत्ता के गहराई से निहित है। 'आराधना' सिर्फ उम्र बढ़ने का उत्सव नहीं है, बल्कि भारत की परंपराओं और सांस्कृतिक मूल्यों को बनाए रखने में हमारे वरिष्ठ नागरिकों के कालातीत योगदान के लिए एक श्रद्धांजलि है। मंत्री ने वरिष्ठ नागरिकों को समाज में सक्रिय रूप से जुड़े रहने तथा सम्मान, प्रतिष्ठा और सुरक्षा के साथ जीवन जीने हेतु मंत्रालय के व्यापक प्रयासों को भी रेखांकित किया।

शाम के कार्यक्रम में मनमोहक प्रस्तुतियाँ हुईं जिसने दर्शकों को मंत्रमुग्ध कर दिया। सबसे यादगार क्षणों में से एक पंडित साजन मिश्रा द्वारा भावपूर्ण गायन था, जिसने भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीत की स्थायी सुंदरता का प्रदर्शन किया। गुरु रंजना गौहर का ओडिसी नृत्य प्रदर्शन भी उतना ही मंत्रमुग्ध करने वाला था, जिसमें अभिव्यंजक कहानी कहने और पारंपरिक नृत्य आंदोलनों का मिश्रण था, जिसने शास्त्रीय भारतीय कला की कालातीत कृपा को दर्शाया। इस कार्यक्रम में पूरे भारत के लोक नृत्यों का एक जीवंत समूह भी प्रदर्शित हुआ, जो देश की कलात्मक परंपराओं की विविधता और इन परंपराओं को बनाए रखने में वरिष्ठ कलाकारों की अभिन्न भूमिका का प्रतीक है।

पूरे आयोजन के दौरान, गणमान्य व्यक्तियों ने समाज के मूल्यों को आकार देने में उनके महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका को स्वीकार करते हुए, वरिष्ठ नागरिकों के लिए सम्मान और देखभाल को बढ़ावा देने के महत्व पर परिलक्षित किया। स्वास्थ्य, वित्तीय सुरक्षा और सामाजिक समावेशन कार्यक्रमों के माध्यम से वरिष्ठ नागरिकों का समर्थन करने के लिए मंत्रालय की निरंतर प्रतिबद्धता की पुष्टि की गई, 'आराधना' ने इन प्रयासों को उजागर करने के लिए एक प्रमुख मंच के रूप में कार्य किया।

कार्यक्रम का समापन वरिष्ठ कलाकारों के सम्मान के साथ हुआ, जिन्हें भारत की सांस्कृतिक विरासत को संरक्षित और बढ़ावा देने के लिए उनके आजीवन समर्पण के लिए सम्मानित किया गया। सुश्री मोनाली धकाते, संयुक्त सचिव (डीओएसजेई) के धन्यवाद प्रस्ताव ने सभी प्रतिभागियों का आभार व्यक्त करते हुए और कार्यक्रम को सफल बनाने में सहयोगात्मक प्रयास को स्वीकार करते हुए कार्यक्रम को समाप्त किया।

सामाजिक न्याय और अधिकारिता मंत्रालय यह सुनिश्चित करने के लिए गहराई से प्रतिबद्ध है कि वरिष्ठ नागरिकों के योगदान को महत्व दिया जाता रहे और वे सामाजिक तथा सांस्कृतिक दोनों क्षेत्रों में सक्रिय रूप से लगे रहकर सम्मान और संतुष्टि का जीवन जी सकें।

पूरी दुनिया देखेगी कि भारत एक बार फिर से पूरी दुनिया के सामने विश्व गुरु के तौर पर ही उभर कर सामने आएगा। युवा पीढ़ी जितना ज़्यादा  बज़ुर्गों का सम्मान करेगी उसे  ही अधिक फल भी मिलेगा।

Posted on : 21 SEP 2024 7:34 PM by PIB Delhi

Concludes with a Pledge to Strengthen Food Safety Systems across the Globe

*India Leads the Way to Strengthen Global Food Safety Ecosystem

*It is our responsibility to ensure food safety along with food security: Shri Chirag Paswan

*“The diversity of our food systems is truly remarkable—this is the essence of India. We need to brainstorm ways to transform this rich abundance into meaningful opportunities”

Bharat Mandapam: New Delhi: 21 September 2024: (By PIB Delhi//Hindustan Screen Desk)::

Union Minister of Food Processing Industries, Shri Chirag Paswan addressed the Valedictory Ceremony of the two-day Global Food Regulators Summit 2024 at Bharat Mandapam, here today. Hosted by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, the summit featured insightful dialogues and discussions aimed at fostering international collaboration and knowledge-sharing on food safety and regulatory issues.

Addressing the session, Shri Chirag Paswan said, “It is our responsibility to ensure food safety along with food security. We should aim not only to maintain the quality of our food but also to explore ways to enhance its value.” Shri Paswan congratulated FSSAI for organizing the global summit which saw a massive participation of national and international food regulators and other stakeholders.  “The diversity of our food systems is truly remarkable—this is the essence of India. We need to brainstorm ways to transform this rich abundance into meaningful opportunities,” he added.

Dr. V K Paul, Member, NITI Aayog, in his special address commended the Eat Right India movement of FSSAI. He said, “I'm very proud that our nation has the Eat Right Movement. I urge all of you to join the movement of the Eat Right India Jan Andolan and engage in behavioural change.”

Earlier in the day, Smt Anupriya Patel, Hon’ble Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare and Chemicals and Fertilizers, delivered the Presidential Address at the Regional Conclave which was held as a parallel session. She emphasized on unity and collaboration between countries to elevate the role of regional countries in shaping food safety standards globally. She also shed light on the crucial role played by FSSAI in aligning the national food safety standards of India to that of Codex norms.

India hosted the Regional Conclave aimed at enhancing collaboration and harmonization within the Codex Alimentarius Commission’s standard-setting process. This is the first time that a Regional Conclave has been organized outside the headquarters of Codex in Rome. It provided a dedicated platform for Asian countries to discuss food safety, trade, and regulatory challenges unique to the region.

Ms Punya Salila Srivastava, Officer on Special Duty, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare delivered the keynote address at the occasion.

Shri G. Kamala Vardhana Rao, FSSAI CEO provided an overview of the discussions held during the two-day event. He expressed gratitude to both national and international delegates for their invaluable contributions and expertise during the discussions.

The second day of the summit saw insightful discussions on critical subjects like residue and contaminant monitoring systems, new-age analysis in food-testing, addressing hidden hunger through fortification and impact of animal feed on food safety and human health. The summit was inaugurated on 20th September 2024 (Friday), by Shri JP Nadda, Union Minister for Health and Family Welfare. It brought together food regulators from around the world to exchange perspectives and knowledge on crucial issues related to food safety systems and regulatory frameworks throughout the food value chain.

Various initiatives including Food Import Rejection Alerts (FIRA)- an online portal for notification of food import rejections at Indian borders and FICS 2.0 – an advanced website for the Food Import Clearance System, were launched during the Summit. A millets recipe show ‘Flavours of Shree Anna – Sehat aur Swaad Ke Sang’ was also launched during the inauguration ceremony. The release of the State Food Safety Index (SFSI) 2024, an annual report evaluating the food safety performance of Indian states and union territories, was also a highlight of the event.

The Summit brought together delegates from over 70 countries, including Food safety regulators and those from Risk Assessment Authorities, Research Institutes and Universities who discussed and strategized on key regulatory issues. It highlighted India’s commitment to leading global efforts in enhancing food safety standards and ensuring food security. It set off dialogue on critical aspects such as food safety, risk assessment, analytical competence, and capacity-building initiatives, which impact the food safety ecosystem worldwide.

Ms Inoshi Sharma, Executive Director, FSSAI and senior officials of the Union Health Ministry were present at the event.

Hope you are already aware of the illegal-demolition and  eviction of 1200 families from a slum  in Bangalore,  where they were living for more than 20 years .

This brutal action was enacted by the combined violence of police, pvt goons, and government officials.The whole purpose is to grab the 15.64 acres of prime land on which they were living.  it is between Jan 18--20. but even today the evicted people are living on footpath. this is the first where a `corporate land sharing project ` under PPP is being introduced in entire south India, in Urban poor Housing. If this move is not resisted , it only pave way to more and more land grab from slum people all over. What we are experiencing in the country is  the diminishing Democracy and flourishing Corporatocracy.

At this Juncture we request all democratic organization at Delhi to extend support and solidarity in resisting, exposing and get back the land grabbed from the social groups -historically marginalized.

.We seek your support and solidarity in organizing a protest Demonstration on 4th March at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi and a CSO consultation on 6th at Delhi. A strong struggle  group  from Forum against EWS Land Grab, Bangalore Karnataka.

We request you to play a prominent / leading role in actualizing  organized mass protest at Delhi on 4th march. Around 20 people from Bangalore forum that led the struggle so far, will be joining the protest.
