आज अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय मजदूर दिवस 2019 है, जिसे मई दिवस के नाम से भी जाना जाता है

दुनियाभर में 1 मई का दिन अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय मजदूर दिवस या मई दिवस के तौर पर मनाया जाता है। 

World Labor Day 2019

जो हर बाधा को करता है दूर, उसका ङटकर मुकाबला करता है, उसका नाम है मज़दूर !

मज़दूर दिवस की शुभकामनाएं!

मई दिवस और मजदूरों की कुर्बानियों के इतिहास के बीच यह भी गौरतलब है कि लड़ कर हासिल तमाम मजदूर अधिकारों का आज छीनने का दौर चल रहा है।

आज अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय मजदूर दिवस 2019 है, जिसे मई दिवस के नाम से भी जाना जाता है।

लेकिन बहुत कम लोग जानते हैं कि मजदूर दिवस क्यों मनाया जाता है ,

मजदूर दिवस।

आज ही के दिन 1886 में अमेरिका के शिकागो शहर में मजदूरों ने पूंजीवादी शोषण के खिलाफ और काम के घंटे निर्धारित किये जाने, यूनियन बनाने के अधिकार समेत तमाम मजदूर अधिकारों के लिए ऐतिहासिक हड़ताल की थी।

इस हड़ताल पर बर्बर दमन ढाया गया। कई दिनों तक चले संघर्ष में कई मजदूर हताहत हुए और 8 मजदूर नेताओं को तो एक साल बाद नवम्बर 1887 में फांसी पर चढ़ा दिया गया।

8 घंटे का कार्यदिवस जो पूरी दुनिया मे लागू हुआ, उस अधिकार के लिए मजदूरों की कुर्बानियों के इतिहास का प्रतीक दिन है-मई दिवस। भारत में भी मजदूर अधिकारों के संघर्षों की लंबी परम्परा है।

उसके बाद निरन्तर कपड़ा मिलों, जूट मिलों समेत तमाम कारखानों में मजदूर अपने अधिकारों के लिए लड़ते रहे और हड़ताल को संघर्ष के सब से प्रभावी हथियार के तौर पर उपयोग में लाते रहे।

1908 में देश के मजदूरों ने पहली राजनीतिक हड़ताल की। लोकमान्य तिलक को जून 1908 में अंग्रेजों ने राजद्रोह के आरोप में गिरफ्तार किया। इस गिरफ्तारी के खिलाफ हजारों मजदूर सड़कों पर उतर आए। जुलाई के महीने में जब मुकदमें की कार्यवाही शुरू हुई तो मजदूरों का संघर्ष और तीखा हो गया।

रूस के क्रांतिकारी नेता कामरेड लेनिन ने इस हड़ताल का स्वागत किया और कहा कि तिलक की गिरफ्तारी के खिलाफ उभरा मजदूरों का यह संघर्ष और उससे पैदा हुए वर्ग चेतना अंग्रेजी साम्राज्य को नेस्तनाबूद कर देगी।

मई दिवस और मजदूरों की कुर्बानियों के इतिहास के बीच यह भी गौरतलब है कि लड़ कर हासिल तमाम मजदूर अधिकारों का आज छीनने का दौर चल रहा है। 8 घण्टे काम का अधिकार हो या यूनियन बनाने का अधिकार, सब धीरे-धीरे खत्म किये जा रहे हैं।

वाइट कॉलर नौकरीपेशा लोगों की एक बड़ी जमात है, जो स्वयं को मजदूर कहलाना पसंद नही करती, लेकिन पूंजी के शोषण की भरपूर मार झेलती है।

मजदूर अधिकारों और श्रम कानूनों पर हमले के इस दौर में अथाह कुर्बानियों से हासिल इन अधिकारों को बचाने के लिए मजदूरों के एकताबद्ध संघर्ष ही एकमात्र रास्ता हैं।

दुनिया में मजदूर अधिकारों का संघर्ष और भारत मे मजदूर अधिकारों के संघर्ष का इतिहास बताता है कि दुनिया भर में मजदूरों ने एक ही तरह से लड़ कर अपने अधिकार हासिल किए हैं।

इसलिये आज जो मई दिवस को बाहरी बता रहे हैं, वे मजदूरों की कुर्बानियों के समूचे इतिहास को ही मिटा देना चाहते हैं। वे मजदूरो के पक्षधर लोग नही हैं। वे मजदूरों के जायज हकों पर डाका डालने वाले, सत्ता में बैठे बाउंसर हैं।

इसलिए मजदूरों के कुर्बानियों के इतिहास में दरार पैदा करने की कोशिशों के खिलाफ मजदूरों की एकता के जरिये मुंहतोड़ जवाब दिया जाए।

दुनियाभर के मेहनतकशों की एकजुटता का आह्वान करने वाले कार्ल मार्क्स के नारे को बुलन्द करें- दुनिया के मजदूरो, एक हो।

जो हर बाधा को करता है दूर, उसका ङटकर मुकाबला करता है, उसका नाम है मज़दूर !

“मज़दूर दिवस की शुभकामनाएं”!

PU,Chandigarh, organized its two day National Seminar on “Changing Contour of Open and Distance Education in New Millennium” from 30th April to Ist of May, 2019.

Chandigarh April 30, 2019

University School of Open Learning, Panjab University, Chandigarh, organized its two day National Seminar on “Changing Contour of Open and Distance Education in New Millennium” from 30th April to Ist of May, 2019.  Dr. Raghurao Akkinepally, Director of NIPER, Mohali, an alumnus of Panjab University and having more than thirty two years of teaching experience underscored the importance of Open Learning and said that a lot of openness was being offered by knowledge/data sources like Wikipedia. 
The contemporary education scenario was witnessing the intersection of education, teaching and learning with information and technology.   An integrated instructional approach blending the actual and the digital was now the order of the day.  He listed the various benefits of Open and Distance Learning-massification, democratising education, cost effectiveness, second chance to those who missed out and a guarantee 
of Life Long Learning.  In the wake of the onslaught of digitalisation, he opined that actual learning was losing its importance.  He added that online media communications like Twitter, You Tube, Face book etc. also allow for a rapid sharing of ideas.

Prof. Raghurao cautioned that over-dependence on digital platforms and 
accepting Google as the Guru was leading to excessive information and confusion thereby.  The crucial question thus is the validation of this knowledge.  Prof. Raghurao advocated the best out of the actual and the digital modes by developing hybrid models, encouraging hands on training and putting teaching experience to the maximum use.  He did emphasise the importance of video-lectures and on-line discussion forms to supplement the actual learning of professional courses.

 The Dean University Instruction, Prof. Shankarji Jha underscored the 
importance of the objectives of education and the value of putting our knowledge into practice.  Professor Karamjeet Singh, Registrar, Panjab University, emphasised that Open Learning was the future of all universities and that teachers have to use innovative methods for dissemination of education.

 The inaugural session concluded with the release of a book written by 
Professor Ravi Mahajan “Open and Distance Education in the New Millennium: A Chronology in the Making” and also the release of our annual report for the session 2018-2019.  

Professor Yojna Rawat introduced the theme of the Seminar and highlighted the achievements of the department.  

The speakers in the first and second plenary sessions were Prof. A.K. 
Sahajpal, former Professor and former Vice-Chancellor, Baddi University, Solan and Professor Ravi K. Mahajan, a very senior Professor and Coordinator of Statistics Department, USOL.  Professor Mahajan spoke on “ODE: Timeline Beneath New Millennium”.  Around 15 (fifteen) participants presented their research papers on the theme of the seminar.  

The afternoon session was presided over by Prof. Neelam Grover, former 
Chairperson of USOL.  The Seminar will continue for another day.
