New India: What happened to makeover, what is going to happen?
Does not change over time as it corrodes. That is why changes are taking
place in India as well. In the name of 'New India', many reforms are going
on across the country. Of course, political parties have their own
definition of New India and also have their own controversies. On the other
hand, the country has undergone many changes in the last one or two decades,
which can truly be called 'New India'. Any small change today can take the
form of a big revolution tomorrow and that is what New India should be
called in the true sense. Here are some examples of New Indiana ...MPL Rogue Heist - India's 1st Shooter Game
Sikkim: A major achievement in the field of small state agriculture
Sikkim has become the first state in the country to engage in fully organic
farming. The small state has had this great achievement since 2015. Sikkim
has barely 75,000 hectares of arable land. The government has gradually
converted the land into full nature based farming. The use of artificial
fertilizers and pesticide seeds has stopped.
The state was given the status of the first organic state after Sikkim
complied with all the norms laid down under the government's 'National
Program for Organic Program'. The Sikkim government has also banned the
sale of land cultivated by chemicals.
On the one hand, diseases are on the rise in the world, on the other hand,
the demand for nature-based farming and agricultural products is also
increasing. Under these circumstances, Sikkim's success will be
significant at the world level. The contribution of agriculture to
Sikkim's economy is huge, so the state had no other option but to reform
agriculture.
The hill state of Sikkim mainly cultivates cardamom, ginger, flowers,
vegetables, rice etc. Also H. and Ginger are the main products. Now, after
Sikkim, the neighboring states of Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh are also
putting more emphasis on organic farming. As the demand for India's
organic products is increasing day by day in western countries.
Preparation for a similar spaceflight: Mission Gaganyan
Gaganyan is India's first space mission and is set to launch in 203.
The project is a major challenge for the Indian Space Research
Organization (ISRO). This is because there is a big difference between
launching satellites and sending a manned spaceflight. Sending humans
into space is a daunting task. This requires technology ranging from
special capsules, for which ISRO has made preparations. A space travel
station has been set up near the ISRO headquarters in Bengaluru for
the mission.
Preparations are being made here including space shuttle, space
craft. Russia will train astronauts. In addition, a crew abort system
has been developed to bring astronauts safely to Earth in the event of
an accident. India has been successful in building satellites and
launching rockets for half a century. Apart from that, India lags
behind in space exploration. That is why India is now preparing to
send a similar mission into space.
As planned so far, six astronauts will orbit the Earth for seven
days. India's Gaganyan will be launched into space from ISRO's
Sriharikota launching base. After a seven-day journey, it will
probably land somewhere on the coast of Gujarat. So far, only the
United States, Russia and China have developed the technology to send
astronauts into space. India is going to be the fourth country in the
list.
India's first paperless government meeting
![]() |
Nara Chandrababu Naidu, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh introduces the primary e-Cabinet assembly in Hyderabad on Monday pronouncing a terrific bye to assembly with papers |
The Cabinet meeting of the Andhra Pradesh Government was held on 15th
September 2014. The meeting was India's first paperless government
meeting. The then Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu named it e-Cabinet.
In it all the cabinet ministers gave PowerPoint presentations and did
not use paper at all.
Cabinet ministers carrying iPads or laptops completed the entire meeting
without using paper. It was the first official meeting of a paperless
cabinet in New India in the 21st century. The ministers who were to give
the work report also gave a PowerPoint presentation and it was initiated
by the Chief Minister himself.
The issues pertaining to that ministry were noted online by the
ministers themselves. Not only that, when it came to cooperation between
the ministries, the ministers exchanged files by e-mailing each other in
the presence of the Chief Minister.
Utilizing drones for map creation
Military drones are used in attacks. But there are also many good uses
for drones. The government survey maker 'Survey of India' has started
mapping the entire country with drones and preparing a modern and
detailed map. Of course, this map will be digital, but prints can be
obtained if needed. The primary identification of any country in the
world is with its map, so modernization is required in map creation.
The maps that are currently being prepared have a scale of one million
to fifty million centimeters per centimeter. That is, the map covers
an area of one million centimeters per centimeter to cover the whole
country. While the map being prepared from the drone will include a
scale of 500 centimeters in one centimeter. This will make the map
more perfect. In addition, this digital map can be prepared in 3D
format as it is taken by a drone.
About 300 drones have been deployed for the project. In about 2 years,
out of 32 lakh square kilometers of the country, 24 lakh square
kilometers will be covered. Forest, river, mountainous areas will now
be excluded from the mapping, as there are no special changes. The
project is based on a computer software called
''NOAA Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) ''. The details of the found map will be entered in this software and a
map will be prepared based on it.
Economy: Britain's 150 years equals India's 30 years!
No country's economic growth remains the same. Moreover, once the
growth rate increases, it does not continue to increase. But so much
is certain for India that a strong recession does not have a major
downturn. More remarkably, India's speed of economic growth is
increasing. The certificate of speed was given to Nobel laureate
economist Paul Krugman. Krugman, who attended an event in Delhi in
March 2018, said India's economy was growing rapidly. India has shown
the same amount of development in the last 20 years that it took
Britain 150 years to develop.
Praising India's economic growth, he said that India has shown a
speed unmatched in any other country in the world. Even now, India is
a great place to invest. But government employees and corruption are
the two biggest obstacles in India. To remove it. Despite the progress
of development, India's full potential has not yet come out. He
advised the government to remain active for this.
The anthrax vaccine was developed in India
Scientists from the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO)
and Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) have come up with a new vaccine
against the deadly disease anthrax. The disease is spread by bacteria
found in animals. The disease is most common in cows, horses, sheep and
goats. Its effects are less pronounced in pigs, dogs and humans.
The outbreak in 2001 caused an uproar in the United States. Various
prominent people in America were getting unfamiliar covers. The powder
came out of the cover and the powder was said to be of anthrax. That is
why an atmosphere of fear was created among the people.
Bacillus anthrax bacteria that spread anthrax are mixed in the soil and
remain dormant for years. These bacteria then become active and spread the
epidemic when they find a favorable environment. Anthrax is not detected
immediately after infection, often by the time the infection is reported.
The vaccine was developed after the bio-terror of anthrax in America.
Scientists in India have developed a more powerful and more effective drug
than the previous vaccine.
Achieved the ability to break the satellite
Dissolution is easier than creation, but it is easier for India to
create a satellite, it is harder to dismantle it after setting it up in
the sky. Fortunately, India achieved that feat in 2019. The satellite
launched by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) was shot down
by a missile in orbit.
So far, only three countries in the world - Russia, the United States
and China - have the ability to launch orbiting orbiting (live)
satellites from the earth with a missile or other device. The club
included India. The satellite was shot down by a missile developed by
the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO).
This technology is going to be very important in future wars. Satellites
meet many of our daily needs. Whether it's turning on GPS or watching a
live match on a mobile, checking for damage with satellite images in a
disaster, or saving the country's railway timetable, satellites are a
must.
Now, if one country destroys another country's satellite, great damage
can be done. Ninety percent of U.S. government work is satellite-based.
In the same way, the importance of satellites is increasing in India as
well. India has developed this technology so that no enemy country would
dare to destroy India's satellites.
Smart farming with the help of artificial intelligence
The use of artificial intelligence has become a game changer in
many areas. Drones and artificial intelligence are widely used in
many sectors, but have not yet been used extensively in agriculture.
Indian farmers have been preferring to adopt more traditional
methods of farming than foreign farmers. But a new generation of
farmers has started smart farming in the country.
The government's agri-flight scheme also gives impetus to new
research in agriculture. It has started promoting all the devices
and inventions that bring smartness in agriculture.
In Krishna district of Andhra Pradesh, the work of monitoring the
crops in 5000 acres of land has been started by Marut Drontech with
special farming drones. After aerial observation of the entire crop,
the drone reports it to the farmer. The farmer decides from the
pictures whether the farm needs water or not. What is the effect on
the crop in which section? Drones also provide information if a
disease has been applied to the crop. This drone can observe by
flying a little above the field.
Drones are currently being used in agriculture for observation and
other smart technologies are mainly used for harvesting and
monitoring the land. Indian farmers have also used smart technology
to help cultivate the land. In the coming years, many farmers in
India have started creating an environment where smart farming can
be done.
Storytelling app that educates children through KathaKhazana App
There was a tradition of teaching children through sermons. In a
joint family, children received stories from generation to
generation through grandparents or great-grandparents, but over
time the joint family practice became limited. Such stories no
longer reach children. Recognizing this shortcoming, the story
treasure app came into existence. An organization called Katha
created an app platform called Katha Khajana with children in
India in mind.
The organization, which has been in operation since 1988, has
introduced the medium of the app, providing videos, books and
games to encourage children to read sermons and inspirational
stories. Children living in remote areas do not get books to read.
Schools lack libraries. Many semi-educated parents are unaware of
what to read or show their children.
Through this app, the work of delivering stories, videos and
motivational stories to the children of such parents, who barely
get their livelihood from labor, was done. The story treasure app,
which offers free reading treasure, has also received numerous
awards. The country's first such app, Katha Khazana, has also
received South Asia's prestigious Ambience Award.
The app has been downloaded more than a million times. The
organization has teamed up with schools in 17 states to make video
and online book readings available in schools through the app.
Stories are told in this app in simple language that children can
understand. There are also simple games on the platform that
children can play by touching the screen themselves, with simple
games available that convey the message, including keeping the
house clean.

India's advancement in wind energy
![]() |
Image by Matthias Böckel from Pixabay |
In 2015, India generated 2623 MW of electricity through wind energy. That
is an increase of 2623 MW in wind power generation. According to a report
by the Global Wind Energy Council, India ranks fourth in the field of wind
energy. Spain was previously ranked fourth. India, which had pushed the
rich country backwards, had taken the lead.
On the other hand, according to the Indian Wind Energy Association,
Gujarat ranks third in generating wind energy. As per 2015 statistics,
23439 MW of electricity was generated by wind across India. The highest
wind power in India was in Tamil Nadu (7456 MW). Maharashtra was second
(4439 MW) and Gujarat was third (3642 MW). Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh,
Rajasthan and Karnataka are also leading states in wind energy.
Remote sight of a robotic telescope
India launched the country's first robotic telescope in 2018 at Hanle
in Ladakh. Named 'Global Relay of Observatories Watching Transit Happen
(GROTWH-Growth)', the telescope has been developed with the help of
countries other than India. That is why it has been named
'Growth-India'. Being a robotic, the operation of this telescope is
automatic, it does not require human intervention.
The telescope will continue to study the waves coming from the universe
in its own way and send information to the control center. Apart from
India, the project also includes the UK, Israel, Germany, Japan, Taiwan
and the US. On behalf of India, the Mumbai-based IIT and the
Bengaluru-based Indian Institute of Astrophysics are mainly involved in
the telescope. It is also affiliated with various institutions,
including the Bengaluru-based Indian Institute of Science. Located at an
altitude of 14,700 feet, this telescope ranks among the tallest
telescopes in the world. India has spent Rs 3.5 crore on the
construction of this telescope. The diameter of the telescope is 70
centimeters.
Thoondil - Dept. of Fisheries Apps
Scientists working at the National Institute of Ocean Technology under
the auspices of the Ministry of Earth Sciences have developed a
technology that protects fishermen in the Mediterranean. Technologies
ranging from mobile apps to satellite tracking are used to rescue
fishermen. Scientists have developed a separate communication system to
alert fishermen about heavy rains and hurricane conditions.
Scientists working at the institute have developed a sensor system.
This technology detects the changing oceans and obtains real-time data.
This sensor system detects the path of the cyclone and can predict it
from a distance. This may signal a timely return of fishermen to the
Mediterranean.
After the death of 350 fishermen in a hurricane in 2017, a modern
warning system has been developed and now many fishermen are being made
aware of the real-time status of rain-storms through the app. The
National Center for Coastal Research, Indian Center for Ocean
Information Service, ISRO etc. also helped a lot in this. To increase
the safety of fishermen, Indian scientists have developed an
unprecedented rescue system with the help of technology.
First, 12 barrels were deployed in the Indian Ocean. Floating in the
water conveys this weather to the data center. The data is then analyzed
immediately and an auto alert is sent to the fishermen in the area at
risk through an app called 'Thoondil'. This app gives the
fishermen a notification of what the weather is like in the middle of
the sea and what the weather will be like after hours. Not only that,
this app can also be used to help the rescue team.
From the fishermen's location, the app provides information on which is
the safest place near them and which rescue team can be reached. The app
is designed in such a way that rescue teams can also be contacted
offline. About 5,000 to 7,000 fishermen from Kerala and Tamil Nadu have
been trained in the device, which has greatly reduced the risk of their
daily work. It is planned to connect this system with fishermen across
the country in the coming years. This technology reduces the risk of
life threatening fishermen by 70 to 80 percent during maritime
crises.

The only Internet of Things platform
The connection of all the useful things to the Internet is called
'Internet of Things' (IoT). Internal automatic connection of more than
one device is the Internet of Things. In a way device networking is the
Internet of Things. It makes our daily life easier.
For the first time in the country, Tata Communications has created a
marketplace platform to create a product environment related to the
Internet of Things. All the new products of the Internet of Things can
be put up for sale. Consumers can also buy the product they want.
Launched to promote technology in the country, this platform IoT
Marketplace has proved to be very useful for many new researchers. It is
the only online platform in India dedicated to the Internet of
Things.
Time capsules for future detection
The Indian National Science Congress, which is held in early January
every year, was held in 2019 in Jalandhar. The biggest attraction of
the meeting at that time was the time capsule, which was launched
today. Time capsule is a scientific term. A time capsule is a piece of
land that preserves any current object, information, etc. and is
opened after a certain time.
No one knows what the future holds. But there is a worldwide practice
of burying time capsules so that future generations, people or living
beings can know the present, the period in which we live. A time
capsule is basically a box in which various items are packed and
buried.
The capsule buried in the Indian Congress has a replica of India's
Mars rover, model of Tejas fighter aircraft, tape recorder, laptop,
smartphone, solar panel, twelfth grade text book etc. The capsule will
open on January 3, 2119, a hundred years later. So the students of
that time or whoever is in the place of the university will get all
these things.
India prepares electromagnetic railgun!

In 2017, scientists from the Defense Research and Development
Organization (DRDO) successfully tested electromagnetic radiation
(EMRG). Indian scientists have made great strides in terms of defense
technology. This is because even countries with huge military budgets,
including the United States, are still testing electromagnetic
radiation. India has been able to match it. The railgun is the weapon
of the modern age. His presence will lead to an extraordinary increase
in the strength of the Indian Army.
It usually requires fuel to launch a missile or rocket. But
electromagnetic rails do not require such conventional fuel. These
guns are powered by electricity, magnetism and laser. In which no
energy of any kind is used. The magnetic field alone generates so much
power that the dispatching weapon (gun) can reach speeds of up to 7200
km / h.
The EMRG is the weapon of tomorrow. A gun that can attack six times
faster than sound could change the outcome of a future war. A bullet
fired by a railgun can also pierce a concrete wall two hundred
kilometers away. The gun is called a railgun because of its
derailment-like system. Organizations like NASA have even planned to
make future space trips by railgun. India has achieved a remarkable
feat instead of just thinking.
Biofuel powered aircraft
The country's first biofuel flight made a new history with a
successful flight in August 2018. Biofuels are made using vegetable
oils, recycled grease, animal fats etc. The option of using this fuel
instead of conventional petroleum has been found to be more
beneficial. Because it causes a lot of carbon emissions. Which in sum
will be more beneficial for the environment.
The Airlines International Air Transport Association has decided to
reduce the carbon emissions from the aviation industry by 50 per cent
by 2050. As part of this, such efforts take place in various
countries. India became the fourth most successful country in the
world to fly a biofuel-powered aircraft as part of that effort. India
is the only developing country to have successfully flown a biofuel
powered aircraft.
The SpiceJet Bombardier Q200 flew from Dehradun to Delhi in August
2018. The flight carrying 20 passengers took 3 minutes to cover the
distance from Dehradun to Delhi.
The world's first biofuel-powered flight flew between Los Angeles and
Melbourne in 2018. Before India, only the United States, Australia and
Canada had succeeded in flying biofuel aircraft.
Train 18: Train running without engine
![]() |
JND AMD, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons |
India's railway system is large, but has had to rely heavily on other
countries for the necessary technology. Now, however, the government
has taken steps to make the required railway service in India
available through Make in India and has achieved success. An example
of this is Train-18 (Vande Bharat Express). At present this train
without engine runs between Delhi-Katra and Delhi-Varanasi. The train,
built at the Integral Coach Factory (ICF) in Chennai, has been built
under Make in India.
Among the various features of this train, its unique feature is its
engine. Normally every train has a front engine, while in train-18
each compartment has its own engine. No vehicle can run without an
engine. But if the whole separate engine is attached to the front, the
speed of the train will be somewhat reduced. Therefore, engines have
been fitted in every compartment of this train. So instead of the
engine, there will be a compartment in which passengers can sit.
This technology is called 'Electric Multiple Unit (EMU)' in the
language of science. Many metro trains in India and local trains in
Mumbai run on this technology. Its better known name, however, is
'Multiple Electric Multiple Unit (MEMU)'. Japan's Shinkansen bullet
runs without fitting the front engine, in the same way this train will
run. The technology is not new, but it is also being used successfully
for the first time in India for long distance trains. Now the
government is preparing more such trains.
