 Please come. This is Rajiv Ji. Yes. Now, have you heard of the Islamic State, ISIS? Yes, sir. What can you tell me about this organization? Sir, Islamic State, ISIS, Islamic State for Iraq and Syria. And these are terrorist organizations which tried to establish its own caliphate and ruled according to the Sadia law. And recently, sir, to great extent, we have been able to root it out. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was its chief, was killed in the US mission. But still there is one province in Syria, that is Idlib, where they have some sort of hold and their Basar al-Assad Rezaam is trying to eliminate that. So that is the last passenger. But they had also moved many of the Kurds to Afghanistan. Thanks. Now you said that they have almost destroyed them. But the human United Nations has submitted a report, the Secretary General, in February this year. And they say that the ISIS continues to remain a major threat to security in this region. And the fact that they are continuing to recruit new Kurds online. So are you aware of this method of recruitment of the Islamic State, ISIS? Yes, sir. I read in news reports that online and information and communication technology are being used by different terrorist organizations to radicalize as well as to recruit. And recently, sir, as you said, certainly in Kabul, the day before yesterday or yesterday, there was an incident. Yes. How many people are killed in that? Sir, I have been given permission, can I take case? You know, 30 people, sir. And ISIS has claimed responsibility for that? Yes, sir. In the end of February, there was a similar attack in London in which a person stabbed several others. Before he was shot down with the police. Thanks. So the Islamic State continues to be because they don't need land. Their basic method of recruitment is through online. And on online, they are very, very good at it. That is why they have been able to radicalize so many people. Thanks. Now did you read recently that we had these riots in Delhi? Yes. And the Islamic State has posted a clip on their website saying that the Muslims are being massacred in India and trying to recruit Qadhas to India also. So is the Islamic State a threat to India? Sir, globally it is a threat and in the same line it is also a threat to India. And in fact, we had some report of recruits from Kerala. And the Islamic State is using common sentiments and incidents, unfortunate incidents like this to fan anti-minority feeling and then they are exploiting that feeling to recruit for themselves. So certainly, sir, we have to be at heart. How many people do you think they have recruited in India? Any idea? Sir, I am not very sure but I think around 20 people. The Home Ministry statement was last day about 100 plus people who have been identified, arrested, pending trial, some of them have been convicted also. So it continues to be a very, very major threat for India also. Thanks. Okay. Tell me, have you heard of this International Solar Alliance? Yes. What is this organization? Sir, International Solar Alliance was established in 2015 with India being the founding country, a major country along with France. And this is an organization which has members from countries which lies between the tropics, that is cancer as well as Capricorn. And this organization is headquartered in Gurugram and trying to generate the solar energy, renewable energy. Very good. One point is, has India set any target for itself regarding solar energy? Yes, sir. Earlier, sir, we had 175 gigawatt of renewable energy out of which 100 gigawatt was to be solar energy. And recently, sir, that has been increased by Prime Minister up to 450 gigawatt. So... By when? Our former was by 21-22, but I am not sure. I will have to look into this. Okay. I will ask you one more question. You heard of the scheme called URAH. Yes, sir. What is the scheme? Sir, URAH is a scheme by Ministry of Civil Affairs. So, sir, under this scheme, all those underserved and unserved cities, are to be connected by air. So, it is regional connectivity scheme, sir. Absolutely. Thank you. Thank you, sir. You've written, you've won an award for implicit writing competition. Yes. What was the topic of PSA? Ma'am, topic was on consumer issues. So, it was organized by Consumer Forum of my college, Jagruti. So, if I have a consumer problem, consumer issue, can I go to any repressant place? Is there any repressant mechanism for my issue? Yes, sir. Last year, ma'am, we made law, Consumer Protection Act, which replaced the 1986 copyright. And under this, ma'am, consumer protection authority has been established at the district level, state level, and center level. So, depending on the amount that is involved, you can approach at all this. So, can I go personally or do I need a lawyer to repressant? In this Consumer Protection Act. Ma'am, I think the rules has been simplified where people can go directly and seek repressants. Okay. Now, you're from Bihar. So, very often we hear the same Kosi, river Kosi is a boon, and it's also the bane of Bihar. What does this mean? Ma'am, this means that Kosi, when it flows in limited quantity of water, then it is a very good source for irrigation in those regions. But when there is overflow, ma'am, it destroyed a lot of crops. For example, ma'am, last year we had flood because of Kosi in Bihar. So, why have we not been able to tame this result? Because it overflows its embankments. So, why can't we do something about it? Because every year it floods. Right, ma'am. So, ma'am, up to a large extent, somewhere this problem continued. But recently there was a river linking project, Kosi Mezi project that was signed. And under this one, overflow of water from the Kosi river will go to the Mezi river, which is tributary of Mahananda River. So, ma'am, I think that lastly... So, has any work started in this interlinking of the river's project? Yes, ma'am. The project has been started, it has been sanctioned and the work has been going on. So, who is going to oversee this project? The interlinking of rivers. A new board is going to be constituted? Authority for interlinking of rivers? Ma'am, with due permission, can I make a case? Yes, make a case. I think the Central Water Commission is overlooking as of now. The Water Commission is overlooking. They've also decided on a central board for management of the interlinking of rivers. Right. So, one board would be constituted. Yes. Then considering, they may have constituted it by now. So, also regarding the smart city project, has any work been done in Bihar under this scheme? First tell me what is the smart city project? Yes. Ma'am, a smart city project is a project which intends to make cities smart. What do you mean by smart? Yes. Ma'am, by this, I mean that there would be extensive use of information and communication technology. There would be multi-mode public transportation. Yes. There would be security for humans, be it CCTV or panic button and all those. And then drainage system would be transferred. Cities will be very individual. Right. So, which cities are in Bihar under the smart city project? Ma'am, Patna city is one capital. Apart from that ma'am, Bhagalpur is another. Yes. And then Bodhga. Both. So, has any work started under this project? Have you already? Ma'am, some works are going on but I will have to look into particulars. So, now my question is why do we need a smart city? What was the concept behind making smart cities? Ma'am, organization is one of the major factors. Yes. You got it. Absolutely. And one more question regarding COVID-19. Yes. Are you aware of this? Yes. So, what is or how is it going to threaten world economy? Not just Indian economy. Give me one or two or three points which you think will affect world economy. Yes. Ma'am, China is major linkage in the global supply chain. So, when production hits in China, get heated, then automatically... Yes. One is that. Second, ma'am, we are already in the phase of de-globalization somewhere. We are seeing protectionism is rising. This will aggravate the situation. COVID will aggravate the situation when countries are refraining from importing from China. Okay, that's all right. Anything else? Yes. What about travel? Two days. Right, right ma'am. Air tourism is another, sleeping sector is... Yes. Yes, right ma'am. Two days. That would also be a hit, ma'am. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you ma'am. Why did we need a bulky constitution? Yes. Said that diversity of India, diversity was such great that we needed to make sure that all sections concerned are taken care of. Apart from that said, we also needed to make sure that all the things are to large extent clarified so that later on for a new independent country it does not become a concern where we will have to clarify on a stand. So we tried to make sure that provisions are extensive. Apart from that said, it is also said that lawyers were the major... One of the basic points is that unlike any other federal constitution, we don't have constitution for states. Right. Right. Can you tell us what are the checks and balances between the executive legislature and parliament and the judiciary? Yes. Said for that doctrine of judiciary is one of the most important which goes under article 13, 131, 132, under which... Article? 1313. Yes. So when this legislature or executive tried to cross its domain, then judiciary steps in. Second is a doctrine of basic structure which was... Which came up by judicial innovation in case one and party case. So under which there are some basic structures, for example, federalism, secularism, division of power. And if said executive or judicial by its legislative... Okay. As far as discretionary powers are concerned, between the government and the president, who has more discretionary power than what are the discretionary extra powers given to the... Sir, government has more discretionary power than this president. For example, sir, if I gave... If I talk about one example, sir, when it comes to giving... Giving a cent to the bill, then government can reserve bill for the president. Under article 7200, if I'm not wrong, sir, article 200, it can reserve bill for the consideration of the president, sir. That is one, sir. Apart from that, sir, president is born to give a cent to the constitutional amendment act as per 24th constitutional amendment act. But there is no such provision for government. And since... Constitutional amendment, its domain of argument, so... What is SR? Yes, sir. Sir, SR... My case was... Case in year 1994. And under this, federalism was said to be one of the basic structure of the constitution. And governance, the role of the governor, appointment, were sought to be explained then. So when government change, it does not replace governance or betraying. So that... And centric state regulation was also discussed in SR for my case. What is composite flow test? I'm sorry, sir. I'm not as a... Jectambika Park case. You have to vote this. I'm sorry, sir. Now, can you tell us... What is this permanent commission that has been signed by Supreme Court? It's in this... So recently, Supreme Court allowed women officers who were recruited through short service commission to have permanent commission and permanent appointment in the Indian Armed Forces. So earlier, we had intense services and through short service commission, they were upgraded to the permanent commission. But now, by large extent, it is sought to be implemented on large extent. So it is a social justice state by Supreme Court where we are seeking empowerment of women. We've asked... What about... Do we have a provisional constitution? And I believe it is for compulsory service in military. Yes, sir. We do have. I don't remember an exact article, but I have read that it is... Thank you. Thank you, sir. You are part of the NCC. Yes, sir. Right? It's a very good thing. But tell me, what does the NCC do after you have finished your tenure with the NCC? Later, what does the NCC do after the children have grown up? Sir, as the motto of NCC goes, unity and discipline. So since the young age of the cadets are involved with those qualities in them, there is also emphasis on the devotion towards the public service. So sir, when they grow up, that quality of discipline, unity, social harmony continues and he's the person wherever he goes. He tries to make sure that he lives a disciplined life. He contributes to the society. So that, I think, is the larger. And second, sir, when one pass out from NCC, there is also recruitment to the armed forces to see certificate. So that is another good thing about NCC. But as well as in extreme cases, you can employ NCC cadets as second line of difference, third line of difference. So these all have the sum of the benefits of NCC. Yes. The first one, first reason was the best. Okay? All right. Now, you were living in India. You were studied in Delhi in 2018. You passed out. And therefore, staying in India, in Indian conditions and studying in Delhi in 2018, the demonetization really has impacted you. But its impact on the Indian economy. It was good or bad? Said to great extent, personally, I feel that intentions were very right. So it was to cardboard the black money or fake Indian currency notes. But then there was some issues with regards to implementation. So there were some reports highlighted that there was cash grants and suddenly people had to shift to the digital mode of transmission of economy. So people were digitally illiterate. But with time, sir, I believe that things have improved to a great extent. Let's look at the first reason which you gave a little bit more deeply. Yes. What did you say it was true? Intentions were very good. What were the stated intentions? Intentions, you said? Yes. What were the stated intentions? One you mentioned, black money. Any other intention? Root of corruption. Corruption was another thing. Later on, fake Indian currency note and later on said there was... What was the original one? Promotion of based on payment and based on more of... All we got added later on. Yes. The stated objective was only against black money. Right? Now, since you have studied in PGTV, that's a very good college. They would have told you whether this sort of a measure, demandization, can it actually work against black money? Does it work or it cannot work? What's your knowledge of that? Sir, it works. It works against black money because when I say that, what happens when this kind of exercise is done? People become accountable to the process. They have to deposit money back and then they'll come into the banking channel system. Accountability and transparency will be promoted. So, sir, yes, it works. It works against black money. But then, sir, there are some issues where they are foreign in the Swiss bank account. We say that money are deposited. So, there we'll have to make some. But as for internal economy, our consensus, I think formalization comes. That's an acceptable answer because yes, in the long term, provided it is linked with sort of an amnesty scheme that if you deposit within so many days, then it is okay to exchange your money. That is the fact which you give. But in the short term, immediate objective, people don't put their assets in money. They put it in houses. Real estate people do agree. They're not demonetized. This is true, sir. But then, money is also one of the major parts. So, we'll have to work on all those. Last question, let's look at politics of India. You have heard of this nota none of the above in election. Yes, sir. What is it really? Sir, none of the ever provision was brought by Supreme Court in its one of its judicial judgment and under which it was said that voters would have option to place the nota button under which they'll reject. They have the choice to not vote in favour of any candidate and they can show their opinion that they are not happy with the candidates. But then there is provision that even if nota scores the highest vote, then also the candidate who scores below that would be the winner. So, this election would not nullify so. Isn't nota a joke on the voter? I don't want any of them. But the fellow who gets even one vote, I'll hold 18 nota. But someone else gets one vote. What about from them? Isn't it a joke on them? Sir, with due respect, I think that it is not, it is an important because even by even by exercising nota, sir, we are giving a message to the selectors that see, we are not happy with your selection. So, it will have effect on the selection of the members that we have rejected your candidates. So, next time, please come up with candidates from will favour. So, that is the benefits. Then I have to ask you the last question. If you feel ripple effect is there, it has been there since 2015, it has been employed in state assembly elections also. In recent, in Delhi also. If it has such a ripple effect the people with criminal background cases fight against them in our parliament and legislation would have been going down. It's not, it's been going down. So, what is your ripple effect theory? Think it out. We are short of time. Just think it out later on. Thanks. I'll ask just one or two deeper shortage of time. When did the Cold War end? When did the Cold War end? You've done international relations? Yes. When did the Cold War end? Since 1990 and with the degradation of the U.S.S.R. You think the Cold War is reviving? Think very carefully and give an answer. Yes, Cold War 2.4. Give the facts to back up the mistake. One of those important things which are present in developments. Yes. Recently, U.S.A. withdraw from the intermediate range nuclear force trading in 1987 and they are scaling up. Has it led to escalation? I don't find any escalation. Sir, it is trying to increase its missile and U.S.A. and Russia. So, and that is second. Second is that military base. Second is a U.S. and a conflict between trade or currency war. So that is also going on. The currency war is not Cold War. Trade war, sir. Trade war is not Cold War. What Cold War is, where the buying force influence in various parts of the country and threatening each other with destruction of the country. So, China sees one server they seem to beat us up between the U.S.R. Yes, sir. In Middle East, sir, also we are seeing that there is size of tension between the U.S. and Iran. U.S. is practically withdrawn. U.S. Iran conflict, sir. U.S. Iran conflict. That also doesn't seem to be potting up. It's not escalating. Arctic is another reason for that. Yes, where there is Russia is very, very aggressive. Yes, what else? What else? So, theater has now shifted to the Indo-Pacific. Earlier it was Atlantic, now to Indo-Pacific. China is aggressive. These are the areas where things are getting badly. Today, there is a very major threat of mass migration, mass exodus from a certain region in the world. Where is that region where it is happening? So, Middle East is, right? They are Middle East. Middle East is a huge region specifically. If we talk about last seven days, then Idlib in Syria where conflict between Turkey and Syria is going on, mass migration is happening over there, sir. Because of Turkey and Syria bombing was done to get back Idlib that is still under the ISIS category. Not ideas. There are rebels against the Assad regime of conflict. Not ideas, ideas. And this Bashar's help Syria is bombing that places. People have become destitute. They are running away. It is said that this will be like Rohingya's migration of the size of Rohingya. Five or seven million people. That is the threat now. You have done English literature. Yes. Any important book you have written in English literature? Sir, can I call it my favorite? Yes. What is the model of that story? What is she trying to say? Yes. Since she is trying to be massive she has also not had prejudice without knowing the person who is the main male character in that? Sir, Mr. Darcy. Mr. Darcy. And the female? Elizabeth. Now, you have read about other European literature. Yes, sir. Have you read Don Quixote? I have heard his books. They say Don Quixote but it is actually Don Quixote. Have you read that? No, I have not. Unfortunately, I have read it. Now, Neeli Ayo has brought out SDG index 2 Yes. In December 2019. Yes. Which is number one statement? Which is the bottom? Yes. Sir, unfortunately, my history is at the bottom. With his score of 15 out of 100 and first he said, he is Kerala. Kerala. Kerala still remains the top. Yes. What is the state of poverty in India? Yes. Sir, as per United Nations Development Program, multi-dimensional poverty index is 52.2 percent and as per World Bank, $1.9 per day is 34 percent and if you look at the state of India, it is number one in poverty at least 50 percent. Yes, 50 percent. Extreme poverty. Now one more question. There is something called global commons. Can you identify these commons? Sir, I will try. Silk, climate, conservation is something that we can say yes. Think again. It belongs to all of us. No single nation can claim outer space. Yes, outer space. Very good. Next. Antarctica. Excellent. Very good. Arctic we are trying to but now it is don't talk about it. Sea line of communication, sir. I.C.'s. I.C.'s. I.C.'s. U.N.C.L.O.S. Cyber space. Cyber space. Thank you, sir.
