Prof. Rajbir Singh Ji, Honourable Vice-Chancellor, Maharishi Dayanand University, Rohtak inaugurated the workshop.

Prof. Rekha Koul, Dean International, Curtin University, Perth, Australia delivered the keynote address. She shared that in the Indian education system there is a gap in theory and practice. Policy planners and teachers have to plan to narrow down this gap. She said that in India, not a single instructional model can work due to socio-cultural diversity. She elaborated on the relevance of constructivist pedagogy, blended learning, flipped classroom in the present scenario. She stressed that collaboration is the major 21st-century skill that every student has to learn for managing all stress and adjustment related issues in the work environment. Indian schools have to adopt new norms for evaluation like the norm- referenced testing, two or three-tier multiple-choice questions to have an in-depth analysis of the knowledge of students. For reliable and valid evaluation, rubrics for evaluation need to be developed. She highlighted the need to change the mindset of parents in India who are still asking about the rank of their kid in the class. Parents have to know the actual learning of their kids. In the second session, Dr Amarendra Behera, Joint Director, CIET, NCERT, New Delhi elaborated upon the initiatives of Govt. of India related to online platforms. During the period of COVID-19, teachers have to learn about the synchronous or asynchronous mode of blending.

सेक्टर 17 थाना क्षेत्र अंतर्गत आने वाले बैंक स्क्वायर के पास मौजूद स्टेट बैंक ऑफ इंडिया के लोकल हेड ऑफिस के पीछे सड़क पर एक लड़की के कटे हुए पैर मिलने से सनसनी फैल गई है। लड़की के दोनों पैर के टुकड़े सेक्टर-17 से प्रेस लाइट प्वाइंट की तरफ आने वाली सड़क के पास मौजूद साइकिल ट्रैक के पास झाड़ियों के पास से मिले है। सूचना मिलते ही मौके पर सेक्टर 17 थाना पुलिस समेत वरिष्ठ अधिकारियों ने जांच शुरू कर दी।
घटनास्थल पर बुलाई गई सीएफएसएल टीम ने लड़की के कटे हुए शहर को कब्जे में लेकर घटनास्थल से कुछ और सैंपल लिए हैं। अधिकारी सूत्रों की माने तो लड़की के कटे हुए पैरों को देखने से मामला हत्या का ही लग रहा है। हालांकि पुलिस यह भी पता लगाने में लगी है कि कहीं पैर का एक टुकड़ा मेडिकल स्टूडेंट्स की पढ़ाई के लिए तो नहीं ले जाया जा रहा था। दरअसल मेडिकल स्टूडेंट्स की पढ़ाई के लिए भी इस तरह से शरीर के टुकड़े डोनेट की हुई बॉडीज से निकाल कर रखे जाते हैं।जिस हिसाब से लड़की का पैर मिला है उसे देखते हुए लग रहा है कि वारदात को एक-दो दिन के भीतर ही अंजाम दिया गया है। पुलिस मामले की जांच कर रही है।

पेट्रोल-डीजल की कीमतों में लगातर बढ़ौतरी को लेकर इनेलो नेता चौधरी अभय सिंह चौटाला ने केंद्र व भाजपा-जजपा सरकार को आड़े हाथों लेते हुए कहा कि ये जनता के घावों पर नमक छिडक़ने जैसा है। पिछले १६ दिनों में डीजल ९.४५ रुपए व पेट्रोल ८.३० रुपए प्रति लीटर महंगा हो गया है।
केंद्र व राज्य सरकार लगातार टैक्स में वृद्धि कर तेल की दामों को बढ़ा रही है और यह वृद्धि अब तक की सबसे बड़ी बढ़ौतरी है। इनेलो नेता ने कहा कि कोरोना महामारी के चलते जहां सभी काम धंधों पर बुरा असर पड़ा है वहीं लोगों को अपनी नौकरियों से हाथ धोना पड़ रहा है व बेरोजगारी अपने चरम पर पहुंच गई है। अंतर्राष्ट्रीय बाजार में कच्चे तेल के दाम सबसे निचले स्तर पर पहुंच गए हैं लेकिन सरकार लगातार तेल की दामों में बढ़ौतरी कर जनता के साथ अन्याय कर रही है।
उन्होंने कहा कि मंदी से त्रस्त ट्रांसपोर्टर व ऑटोमोबाइल उद्योग के लिए स्थिति बेहद चिंताजनक हो गई है। तेल के दामों में वृद्धि से खाने-पीने व जरूरत की चीजें महंगी हो जाएंगी जिससे आम जनता पर महंगाई की मार पड़ेगी। किसानों के लिए खेती पर भी बुरा असर पड़ेगा व फसल उगाना और भी महंगा हो जाएगा। फसलों की लागत बढऩे से किसानों की आर्थिक स्थिति पर बुरा असर पड़ेगा।उन्होंने कहा कि सरकार को पेट्रोल-डीजल के दामों पर लगे टैक्स को कम करके इस बढ़ौतरी को रोकना चाहिए ताकि आम जनता इस बढ़ती महंगाई से निजात पा सके।
अगर सरकार ऐसे ही तेल के दाम लगातार बढ़ाती रही तो वो दिन दूर नहीं जब लोग सरकार के खिलाफ सडक़ों पर उतरकर आंदोलन करने पर मजबूर हो जाएंगे। इनेलो नेता ने कहा कि कच्चे तेल की कीमतें घटने के बावजूद भी भाजपा की सरकार ने आम आदमी को राहत देने की बजाय उनकी जेबों पर डाका डालने का काम किया है।
