மது பார்ட்டி... திருச்செங்கோடு அரசு பள்ளியில் மது அருந்திய 7 மாணவிகள் டிஸ்மிஸ்

திருச்செங்கோடு அரசு பெண்கள் மேல்நிலைப்பள்ளியில் தேர்வின் போது வகுப்பறையில் மது குடித்த 7 மாணவிகள் டிஸ்மிஸ் செய்யப்பட்டுள்ள சம்பவம் பரபரப்பை ஏற்படுத்தியுள்ளது. இது குறித்து நாமக்கல் மாவட்ட முதன்மை கல்வி அலுவலர் இன்று பள்ளியில் நேரடி விசாரணை நடத்தியுள்ளார்.தமிழகத்தில் மூன்று வயது குழந்தைகள் முதல் 90 வயது தள்ளாடும் தாத்தாக்கள் வரை மது போதைக்கு அடிமையாகியுள்ளனர். பள்ளிக்கு அருகிலேயே டாஸ்மாக் கடைகள் திறக்கப்பட்டுள்ளதால் மாணவர்களும் மது போதையில் தள்ளாடியபடியே பள்ளிக்கு வருவது சர்வசாதரணமாகி வருகிறது.

These school authorities does not seems to have any idea about this Forum's Delhi crusader. lol

Hope on seeing this post, he will immediately swing into action against the School authorities for having dismissed the girls who had hard drinks and he may go to the extent of recommnding GREAT REWARDS to the girls for their exemplary act. lol
 
During my worklife I attended an executive development program conducted in my offices by IIM faculty.

One of them was carrying a hip flask .

In between lectures , he would go to rest room and take a swig from the hip flask and return

The female faculty was using rest room for smoking in order not to offend the sensibilities of menfolk{ in those days smoking was not banned in offices]. She felt she

required it to teach professional management to oldies in work place.

The status of govt schools are such that they are only good as relief centres for people wanting an alternative place for stay during rains .

or they can be used as polling stations.

These old rundown buildings are such that students need angoor ki beti to make possible sitting five or six hours every day waiting for absentee teachers.

The location of wine shops have nothing to do with preferance of students.

Many require a quick one after boring lectures of indifferent teachers in case they turn up for work

Brazen attack on freedom of speech: Kovan

Folk singer says instead of shutting down voices, the State must be open to self-criticism.

Folk singer S. Kovan, who has been involved in a political propaganda for over two decades, was recently arrested and a case of sedition slapped on him for his song titled ‘Moodu TASMAC Moodu’ against the State’s liquor policy. The arrest has made him famous overnight.

In this telephonic interview, he talks about the ills of State’s liquor policy and rejects charges of inciting people to commit violence.

You have been using folk music for political propaganda for almost 25 years. What are you thoughts on State government slapping a sedition case now?

Kovan: Despite having performed songs fiercely critical of the governments in the past, I have never faced such a clampdown. I don’t see it as a personal attack on me.

Easy access to liquor a cause for concern


26NOV-2_GAJBCFT_TH_2634208g.jpg


The recent incident of dismissing four students of a Namakkal school for appearing for exams in an inebriated state has come as a shock to sections of population in the State. The easy availability or access to alcohol for teens is an issue that cannot be swept under the carpet.

Chennai has seen a remarkable growth in the restaurant business with several pubs and resto-bars competing with clubs of posh five-star hotels for patronage.

The State-owned liquor shops (TASMAC) might be lax in enforcing the laws related to selling of alcohol to minors, but pub owners in Chennai say that they enforce the law strictly. However, TASMAC shops continue to be a preferred choice because of the price offered by them.

“As far as I know, no popular pub or a bar in the city is lax in enforcing the rule of not allowing anyone under 21 enter the property. In our pub, we routinely ID check anyone who seems younger than 21 years of age,” says Arasu Dennis, who has helped set up and worked in several pubs in the city.

Most pub owners agree that Tamil Nadu has inflexible laws prescribing who can be allowed into a restaurant/pub where alcohol is sold when compared to other states.

Experience has taught that bringing total prohibition is an impossible task. Jainism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Islam prohibit taking of intoxicants. Most of the Islamic Nations have enforced Prohibition by law. Many western Countries including Russia and US have tried prohibition at one time or other and found failure to continue. In our country a few States like Gujarat continue Prohibition.
First and foremost for enforcing prohibition is to raise the social awareness against use of intoxicants. That is what Gandhiji did. This should be supported by the Goverments in regulating availbility of intoxicants. There should be strict censorship against showing scenes of drinking in Cinema and visual media. This is a long drawn process which should be discussed seriously by all political parties and Social groups.

Liquor ban in Bihar: Nitish Kumar announces ban from April next year

Nitish Kumar said the poorest of the poor had been consuming liquor, badly hitting their families and their children's education.

Bihar will go dry from April 1, 2016, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar announced on Thursday.

The chief minister made the announcement — a part of his election pledge — at an official function to mark Prohibition Day.

He said the poorest of the poor had been consuming liquor, badly hitting their families and their children’s education.

Increasing liquor consumption was also a major cause for domestic violence, particularly against women, and had contributed to a rise in crimes.

“Women are suffering more than anyone else due to increasing liquor consumption,” he said.

It is nice to hear the news that Bihar has decided to follow Gujarat, Nagaland, Manipur and Lakshadeep by banning alcohol. Already Kerala Government has decided to introduce prohibition in Kerala in phased manner.

How many people by choice would like to live in bihar-prohibition or no prohibition?

Nitish has carefully said , he would implement it in next financial year.

The liquor revenues have increased from a few hundreds crores in 2005-06 to four thousand plus crores in a decade.

The revenue loss is such that the economy would further go downhill.

In addition , bihar has porous border with nepal besides W.bengal, UP, and jharkand.

Liquor can freely flow across states.The state has to face the challenge of preventing smuggling of liquor.

Added to it there are illicit breweries of country made liquor and prohibition will spur setting up of more such breweries across the state.

There is a flourishing liquor mafia to contend with which has been minting money across the state.

Nitish has an ambitious budget of 2.70 cr rs for next five years for the state.He is cutting of the major source of revenue.

The state enforcement agencies would be wasting their energies to combat the liquor trade and consumption.

I thought Nitish would concentrate on developing the state instead of pleasing the women folk of bihar through populist decisions.

Nitish Kumar has taken all this points into consideration, but on finding it difficult to win the Assembly General Election, he has used this trump card of ‘prohibition’.

Now, it is his turn to honour the commitment and he knows well that if he fails to do that, next time he cannot occupy C.M. Chair, I mean the power.

What is important is power and politicians, who have tasted the power will compromise on anything. It is he who initiated several women centric moves which includes free Bicycle scheme for girls and 50% reservtion for women in Panchayatsetc and hence know well how to play the cards.

It is the women votes that gave him thumping victory and now it is his turn to repay the debts. And he know pretty well that women are overburdedned because of men of Bihar consuming liquor.

Some with limited exposure to politics come here to preach as though Nitish has committed a grave offence. I think such member needs to learn more about arithmetics in politics and grow.

What is important is welfare of the citizen who have conveyed their loyalty and faith by voting the party to power.

Hence, no debate was held and there was no discussion on the subject and it is not enforced in phased manner like in Kerala

To gain and to retain the trust of the general public, Nitish would have thought that it is just and necessary to introduce ‘prohibition’ and hence has done the right thing atleast now.

And the BJP being the opponent on their part have supported this move as their model State Gujarat is praticing 'prohibition'.

மதுவிலக்கு... பிஹாரிடம் இருந்து பாடம் கற்குமா தமிழ்நாடு?!

திருநெல்வேலி அருகே உள்ள தனியார் பாலிடெக்னிக் ஒன்றில் ஆசியராக பணி செய்தவர் சதீஷ். கல்லூரிப் பேருந்தில் வரும் மாணவர்கள் குடித்துவிட்டு பேருந்தில் ரகளை செய்ய, பேருந்தின் ஒட்டுநர் சுதாகர், ஆசிரியர் சதீஷிடம் முறையிட்டிருக்கிறார். சதீஷ், மாணவர்களை அழைத்துக் கண்டித்து ‘பெற்றோரிடம் சொல்லிவிடுவேன்’ என எச்சரிக்க... மாணவர்கள் அவரைத் தாக்க முயற்சித்துள்ளனர். சுதாகர் தடுத்துள்ளார். அடுத்த நாள் ஒரு காரில் சுதாகர் வீட்டுக்கு வந்த மாணவர்கள், அவரையும், அவரது மனைவி செல்வியையும் அடித்து நொறுக்கியுள்ளனர். இருவரும் மருத்துவமனையில் சேரும் அளவுக்கு கடுமையான அடி.

அடுத்து ஆசிரியர் சதீஷ் வீட்டுக்குச் சென்ற மாணவர்கள் அவரை கட்டாயப்படுத்தி காரில் ஏற்றி பாளையங்கோட்டை அரசு மருத்துவக்கல்லூரி மைதானத்துக்கு அழைத்துச் சென்றுள்ளனர். அங்கு வைத்து சதீஷை கடுமையாக அடித்து உதைத்தவர்கள், தங்கள் காலில் விழுந்து மன்னிப்புக் கேட்க வைத்திருக்கிறார்கள். சதீஷைத் தேடி வந்த அவரது தம்பி அருணையும் அடித்து உதைத்து அவரையும் காலில் விழுந்து மன்னிப்புக் கேட்க வைத்துள்ளனர். மனம் நொந்து போன சதீஷ் ‘போலீஸில் புகார் செய்யலாம்’ எனச் சொல்ல... வீட்டில் உள்ளவர்கள் வேண்டாம் எனத் தடுக்க... அவமானம் தாங்காமல் தூக்குப்போட்டு தற்கொலை செய்துகொண்டார் சதீஷ். தற்கொலைக்கு தூண்டியதாக 5 மாணவர்கள் கைது செய்யப்பட்டு ஜாமீனிலும் வந்துவிட்டார்கள்.

In a few years, the word " Tirunelveli" might be included in dictionary, and people would start using it with a particular context as.............. " Are you doing Tirunelveli here?"
 
There was an interesting discussion on prohibition in bihar on TV
1. Bihar assembly has about 60 legislators facing criminal charges.

Some of them are likely are likely to offer protection to liquor mafia to ply their trade

2. Enforcement of prohibition is likely to tie up the manpower resources in prevention and enforcement activities.

3. It is considered more sensible to organise women to become economically strong by forming self help groups and make them viable economically to run families instead of trying to reform drunkard husbands.

4.It might be more useful to reduce the number of liquor licences and open shops a little away from village so that some effort is required to reach the shops to get

liquor.Also it is considered sensible to increase the cost of IMFL by taxing it more so that less is within reach of working class.Govt should not get into liquor

procurement or distribution business to preserve its stance on good governance vis a vis women if they are considered vote banks of ruling party.

5. Nitish's ambition is to enter national politics in three or four years as chief of opposition coalition. hence now he has got only limited interest in local politics.

That explains his lack of interest in sound development politics in bihar. He would just carry on and pass on the gaddi to RJD which suits Lalu prasad yadav
 


Member come here to write freely with his misconceived thoughts while the ground reality is quite different.

Some of the Governments have started to relaize the ill effects of liquor and have decided to act in favour of banning liquor but in a phased manner.

This is what happening around us:

புதிய மதுக்கடைகளுக்கு அனுமதியில்லை

போபால் : மத்திய பிரதேசத்தில் இனி புதிதாக மதுக்கடைகள் திறக்க அனுமதி வழங்கப்படாது என அம்மாநில முதல்வர் சிவராஜ் சிங் சவ்கான் தெரிவித்துள்ளார். மாநிலத்தில் எங்கும் இனி மதுக்கடைகள் புதிதாக திறக்கப்படாது என முடிவு செய்துள்ளதாக கூறப்படுகிறது.

எட்டு மணி நேரம் தான் கடை ஜன. 1 முதல் 'டாஸ்மாக்' நேரம் குறைப்பு
'டாஸ்மாக்' மது விற்பனை நேரத்தை, பகல், 2:00 முதல் இரவு, 10:00 மணி வரை என, எட்டு மணி நேரமாக குறைக்க, தமிழக அரசு முடிவு செய்துள்ளது. 2016 ஜன., முதல், இந்த நடைமுறை அமலுக்கு வரும் என எதிர்பார்க்கப்படுகிறது.

இதுகுறித்து, டாஸ்மாக் அதிகாரி ஒருவர் கூறியதாவது:டாஸ்மாக் மது விற்பனையில் இருந்து ஆயத்தீர்வை, விற்பனை வரி வாயிலாக, தமிழக அரசுக்கு ஆண்டுக்கு, 20 ஆயிரம் கோடி ரூபாய் வருவாய் கிடைக்கிறது. தமிழகத்தின் அண்டை மாநிலங்களான புதுச்சேரி, ஆந்திரா, கர்நாடகாவில், மது விற்பனை உள்ளது; எனவே, தமிழகத்தில் மட்டும் மதுவிலக்கை அமல்படுத்த சாத்தியம் இல்லை.தமிழக அரசின் நிதி நிலைமை மோசமாக உள்ளதால், மதுவிலக்கு கோரி பலர் போராடியும், டாஸ்மாக் விற்பனையில் மாற்றம் செய்யவில்லை.

வீட்டுக்கு அருகில் 'டாஸ்மாக்:' மாணவியரின் அவலம்

வீட்டிற்கு அருகில், 'டாஸ்மாக்' கடை இருந்ததால், நாமக்கல் மாவட்டம், திருச்செங்கோடு அரசு பள்ளி மாணவியர், பள்ளிக்கு பீர் கொண்டு வந்து குடித்தது, அதிகாரிகளின் விசாரணையில் தெரிய வந்துள்ளது

திருச்செங்கோடு அரசு பெண்கள் மேல்நிலை பள்ளியில், 6ம் வகுப்பு முதல், பிளஸ் 2 வரை, 2,500 மாணவியர் படிக்கின்றனர். பிளஸ் 1 மாணவியருக்கு, நவ., 21ல் பருவத் தேர்வு நடந்தது. அப்போது, தேர்வுக்கு வந்த மாணவியரில் மூன்று பேர், மற்றொரு மாணவியின் பிறந்தநாளுக்காக மது அருந்தி மயங்கி விழுந்தனர். தலைமை ஆசிரியை கிருஷ்ணவேணி, நான்கு பேரையும், 'டிஸ்மிஸ்' செய்து, சான்றிதழ் கொடுத்து வெளியேற்றினார்.

இதுகுறித்து, மாவட்ட வருவாய் துறை மற்றும் கல்வி அதிகாரிகள் விசாரணைநடத்தியதில் கிடைத்த தகவல்கள்:நான்கு மாணவியரில், ஒருவருக்கு பிறந்த நாள். அவரிடம், 'பிறந்த நாள் பரிசாக என்ன வேண்டும்' என, மற்ற மூன்று மாணவியர் கேட்க, 'என்ன கேட்டாலும் வாங்கிக் கொடுப்பாயா?' என, அந்த மாணவி கேள்வி எழுப்பி உள்ளார். அதற்கு, மூன்று மாணவியரும், சவால் விட்டு, 'வாங்கித் தருகிறோம்' என்றதும், அந்த மாணவி, 'எனக்கு பீர் வாங்கி வர வேண்டும்' என, கேட்டுள்ளார். அவர் விளையாட்டாக சொன்னதை, ஒரு மாணவி மட்டும் சீரியசாக எடுத்து கொண்டார்.

It is a very fair demand IMO

Considering the flood havoc and travails of 'Kudimagans' Government may seriously consider their demand sympathetically and pass favourable orders.

P.S. Why not they demand 'TASMAC' product as a 'Freebie' to be distributed in the Ration Shop monthly with a quota??

While the Governbment was able to distribute 20 kgs rice freely every month, why not 30 'quarter' bottles @ one bottle per day for the breadwinner?
