“These 5 years had been about ‘reforming’, ‘performing’ and ‘reworking’ the nation. It is rather uncommon that each ‘reforms’ and ‘achievements’ occur and we are able to see transformation proper earlier than our eyes… The nation is experiencing this in the course of the seventeenth Lok Sabha and I’m assured that the nation will proceed to bless the seventeenth Lok Sabha. Lok Sabha,” Modi stated in Parliament.
On the “achievements” of the seventeenth Lok Sabha, the Prime Minister stated that Article 370 was a roadblock within the Structure and the work to repeal it was achieved by Parliament.
“We’ve got created a robust legislation in opposition to terrorism…Within the new Parliament constructing, the proceedings had been initiated with a significant measure, the Girls’s Reservation Invoice,” he stated, including that crucial work of eliminating triple talaq and bringing justice for ladies had been achieved. by the seventeenth Lok Sabha.

‘Pointless legal guidelines eliminated for ease of doing enterprise’
A day after a dialogue on his authorities’s white paper in Parliament, the Prime Minister stated that ‘game-changer reforms’ have taken place in the course of the 5 years of the seventeenth Lok Sabha.
Talking about his authorities’s selections, he stated that within the final 5 years, his authorities has eliminated many roadblocks to legal guidelines and in addition eliminated pointless legal guidelines. The precedence of the federal government, he stated, is to finish the function of presidency within the lives of the widespread man.
“We’ve got eliminated greater than 60 pointless legal guidelines such because the Corporations Act and the Restricted Legal responsibility Partnership Act. This was crucial for ease of doing enterprise. There have been many legal guidelines that put individuals in jail for petty causes. If you’re a enterprise and the toilet just isn’t whitewashed inside six months, you’ll be put in jail. This was the job of residents’ belief, this was achieved by the Lok Sabha,” he stated.
He added that every one parliamentarians performed a task within the nation’s financial reforms. “In recent times, individuals have change into unnecessarily entangled in such issues on account of 1000’s of compliance obligations. Work has been achieved to free them from that. The widespread man turns into buried beneath his burden. The earlier authorities disappears from individuals’s lives, the higher their lives shall be. Why ought to the federal government intervene at each step in every day life? There can not exist such a democracy through which the affect of the federal government impacts its lives.”
Modi additional stated that for the younger era, a legislation was enacted to examine questionnaire leakage and for ladies, the Girls’s Reservation Invoice was handed.
“Strict legal guidelines have been made for issues comparable to paper leaks. All MPs have taken an vital resolution to deal with youth anger in the direction of the system. It’s true that no human race can survive with out analysis. Hundreds of thousands of years of human historical past testify to the truth that in every interval analysis has been performed and life has expanded. The Home tried to encourage investigation by creating a proper authorized system. The Nationwide Analysis Basis’s outcomes shall be far-reaching. Likewise, the way forward for the youth was secured by the Knowledge Safety Act,” he added.
“Irrespective of how dangerous the times are, we are going to proceed to do one thing for the longer term era,” he additional stated.
‘Some confirmed braveness by talking about Ram Mandir, others ran away’
On the Ram temple debate, he stated, “Ram Mandir gave the longer term generations a chance to take delight within the values of the nation. Some individuals present braveness by talking on this topic, others stroll away from the sphere. There’s compassion, sympathy and dedication within the lectures given at the moment. Irrespective of how dangerous the times are, we proceed to do one thing for future generations. We’ll proceed to realize higher outcomes with collective dedication and energy.”
In one other swipe on the opposition, the Prime Minister stated: “The elections aren’t far-off. Some individuals could also be nervous. That is an innate and important side of democracy. We settle for it with delight. Our elections will improve the nation’s delight. The custom of democracy will shock the entire world.”

What are the consequences of smoking tobacco, nicotine, and marijuana for adolescents? Adolescent mental psych tobacco or nicotine or cannabis or marijuana has been the subject of much debate, but what is the scientific consensus? This article explores the possible effects of these substances on normal youth health and functioning, including their impact on impulsivity and damage to the white matter of the brain. Read on to learn more.
Adolescent mental psych tobacco or nicotine or cannabis or marijuana
The results from a recent study of adolescents showed that the prevalence of smoking either tobacco or marijuana and the use of alcohol were related to age. While the prevalence of weekly cannabis and alcohol use was not statistically significant, it was found that male patients were more likely than their female counterparts to use these substances. The results of this study may be useful for predicting future substance use among adolescents. It is important to note, however, that this study is not the only study of its kind.
The study also demonstrated that comorbid use of tobacco and marijuana can result in differential effects on behavioral and neurobiological correlates. However, additional research is needed to account for the age at which comorbid cannabis and marijuana use began and the use of other substances in the participants. In addition, better understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms associated with cannabis and marijuana use will help researchers develop effective treatments.
Despite the many benefits of cannabis, teens should be warned that using it can lead to dangerous consequences. Heavy marijuana use has been linked to poor school performance and increased dropout rates. It can also cause a wide range of mental health issues in adolescents. Heavy marijuana use among teens who suffer from mood disorders increases their risk of car accidents. This makes driving under the influence of marijuana worse than driving while intoxicated.
Impact on normal youth health and functioning
Recent studies on adolescents’ use of cannabis and tobacco have revealed that weed negatively impacts cognitive development in youth. This is especially troubling considering the fact that youth brains are still developing. According to Dr. Megan Moreno, professor of pediatrics at the University of Wisconsin, these results should focus on prevention of cannabis use in youth. However, the study findings are not conclusive.
Research indicates that almost half of 12th graders report using marijuana at some time in their lives, with 6% of these teenagers doing so on a daily basis. Research has linked adolescent marijuana use to an increased risk of developing psychiatric disorders, including major depression and schizophrenia. Marijuana use is associated with disadvantages in attention and academic performance. These disadvantages persist after abstinence of at least one month, but they begin to subside within three months.
While substance use and mental health disorders may be linked to a variety of different risks and benefits, adolescents with a history of depression often turn to drugs, alcohol, and nicotine to help relieve the negative symptoms of their depression. Unfortunately, these substances also tend to increase the risk of addiction and abuse. This means that treatment for these problems will be more limited and the long-term prognosis of teens with mental health problems will be even worse.
However, there are a few important caveats to keep in mind when attempting to make this connection. First, adolescent marijuana users’ brains may show structural changes after abstinence from drugs for at least 28 days. In rats, marijuana users’ brains also show increased gray matter density, although the researchers have yet to investigate this in humans.
The study examined whether substance use in adolescents is associated with higher impulsivity. Participants completed questionnaires about substance use and impulsivity once a year for three years. The first assessment was conducted in September 2013, the second one in April 2014, and the third was performed in April 2016. Data collection complied with the Declaration of Helsinki. The study found that impulsivity is related to a person’s general impulsivity and the search for sensations.
The study also investigated the changes in impulsivity associated with the use of tobacco and nicotine, and alcohol. While early users were associated with the lowest levels of impulsivity and social-spatial satiation (SS), telescoped users exhibited the highest levels. Both SS and impulsivity increased in parallel with substance use. The results support the hypothesis that polydrug use increases impulsivity.
The researchers conducted an experiment in which participants smoked cannabis. The subjects were given either placebo or active marijuana. The researchers noted that marijuana increased wanting impulsivity in adolescents. A study in the journal Psychopharmacology published similar results in adults. But the findings were not conclusive. In fact, it is unclear whether or not cannabis or nicotine or marijuana increases impulsivity.
A study of cigarette and marijuana users found that they had higher impulsivity than non-smokers. Although the study did not measure behavioural impulsivity, it found that cigarette and cannabis smokers had higher trait impulsivity. This is contrary to the view that cannabis and marijuana increase impulsivity. There are no definite studies on whether or not cannabis and nicotine use increases impulsivity.
Damage to brain’s white matter
Researchers have found that nicotine and cannabis use, especially those who begin using them young, is associated with damage to the brain’s white matter. However, these findings are not yet conclusive. Longitudinal studies are needed to confirm the association between the age at which dependence begins and the changes in white matter. Besides, it is not known whether use of skunk also results in damage to the white matter.
A new study looks at the effect of different levels of THC on the structure of the brain. Higher doses may damage nerve fibres involved in transferring messages between the left and right hemispheres. In addition, regular cannabis users have slight differences in their white matter, which connects the left and right hemispheres of the brain and carries messages. These differences weren’t observed in non-users or potent cannabis users.
Researchers matched controls and cannabis users according to their mental health, the frequency and intensity of their use, the duration of their usage, and the severity of their dependence. The results of the study revealed that marijuana users had less FA in their white matter tracts than control subjects. However, the association between cannabis use and white matter microstructure needs to be further investigated. The authors suggest that replication studies should focus on evaluating the effects of marijuana use on cognitive function in patients with depression or other mental health problems.
The research also shows that the use of cannabis or nicotine may lead to an increased risk of cerebrovascular disease. However, more studies are needed to determine whether cannabis or nicotine use is directly related to stroke. A combination of smoking and non-smoking cannabis may increase the risk of stroke. If so, it is important to avoid smoking and vaping, and to reduce the risk of stroke.
Increased risk of psychotic disorders
Research has linked smoking and use of cannabis to an increased risk of schizophrenia. The amount of marijuana consumed and the duration of use were associated with increased risk. Regular cannabis users have a risk of schizophrenia that is nearly double that of non-users. People who have used cannabis at some point in their lives have a risk of psychosis that is approximately 40% higher than for those who have never used cannabis. Although the percentage of people with psychosis is small in the general population, current estimates suggest that frequent long-term cannabis use may lead to psychosis.
High-potency marijuana is linked to an increased risk of psychotic disorders. It is important to note that these disorders can begin at a very young age, and may even be more severe than before. Moreover, they often worsen over time. While the risk of psychosis is largely unknown, marijuana is often used by youths who have relatives with the disorder. Youths who smoke marijuana have a one in five chance of developing psychosis compared to youths who have no family history of psychotic disorder.
Although the study found no direct correlation between the amount of high-THC weed and the risk of psychosis, the results are still noteworthy. The study did not show that marijuana use caused the increase in psychosis, but it did find an increased risk of psychosis among people in cities where the drug is widely available. However, the study did show a trend: cities with greater access to high-THC weed have a higher rate of new psychosis cases.

Many probably only know of the Yazidis from occasional news coverage of Middle Eastern conflict. The minority ethnic and religious group, which is mostly based in northern Iraq and neighbouring countries, featured in global headlines for a few scant weeks when they become the target of a genocide campaign launched by ISIL in 2014. Figures vary, but it’s estimated the attacks resulted in the slaughter of roughly 5,000 men and the murder or abduction of up to 10,000 women and children, many of whom remain enslaved in the region. Hundreds of thousands of Yazidis were displaced by the attacks, many starving to death in the remote mountains where they sought refuge.
This ongoing tragedy–formally recognized as genocide by the United Nations earlier this year–is the backdrop for Zülfü Livaneli’s gripping novel, Disquiet. Originally published in Turkish in 2017, it was credited with having a major influence on public attitudes toward the Yazidi refugees flooding into that country, an impact reflected in Turkey’s banning promotion of the book. It’s now available in English in an adept translation by Brendan Freely.
The novel perches somewhere on the fence between journalistic mystery and political thriller, but genre is the least of Livaneli’s concerns. Like much of his work, Disquiet is a vehicle through which to explore the politics of identity and the plight of minorities and refugees.
The story is told from the first-person vantage of Ibrahim, a worldly reporter living in Istanbul who returns to the rural town of his childhood near the Syrian border to attend the funeral of a friend. He learns that his friend had fallen in love with a Yazidi refugee named Meleknaz, to the disapproval of family and neighbours, before fleeing Turkey for Germany, where he was murdered. Ibrahim senses a story here and works to unravel the mystery of his friend’s death and find the Yazidi woman, who has also disappeared.
Livaneli has produced a novel that, despite its brevity, manages to perfectly encapsulate the remarkable diversity of modern-day Turkey. The cosmopolitanism of its protagonist–a secular journalist living a fast-paced life in Istanbulcontrasts with the slow pace of life in the medievalesque rural villages where he pursues the story.
Livaneli depicts to striking effect the changes that have occurred in the country during the past decade of dictatorship. His protagonist remembers the easygoing, tolerant Islam of his youth and contrasts it with the harsh, angry conservatism that’s taken hold in recent years; an Islam that feels it’s got something to prove.
When I was a child, Islam…was something different. It was a tender world…When the children insisted on fasting during Ramadan, the adults would say fine, fast for three days, one day at the beginning, one in the middle and one at the end, then add a zero and it will be thirty. Despite our insistence, we couldn’t wait for the breaking of the fast: we would secretly drink water and eat food we’d purloined from the kitchen. They never chided us for this…But now the atmosphere was closed, the city had been darkened by the shadow of a sterner, angrier Islam.
He subtly underscores how conservatism’s call to heritage is actually a rewriting of that heritage. The traditional local wine and liquor he loved in his youth–famously produced in the region for millennia–are now all but impossible to get. They used to be a symbol of local pride and heritage, available everywhere and widely consumed. But Islamic conservatism has forced this part of the area’s heritage to a final sanctuary in western hotel bars.
Ibrahim contrasts his life in Istanbul a life of fast cars, easy sex, cell phones, and social media apps–with life along the eastern border, punctuated by Syrian refugee camps that seem like they’re from another age. The joie de vivre of the novel’s protagonist contrasts with the horrific stories of rape, slaughter, and genocide shared by these refugees: the impact on the reader is palpable.
What opens as an engaging political mystery suddenly morphs into fictionalized warzone reportage, and so abrupt is the shift that the reader literally feels like they’ve slammed into a wall. The effect is a literary triumph, underscoring how quickly social realities can be transformed, and how seemingly impossible contrasts can co-exist so near to each other. If readers find the atrocities hard to believe, they ought to look up actual accounts of the attacks; they’re even worse than what Livaneli describes.
The fact all these realities co-exist simultaneously is one of the great contradictions of a country like Turkey. At its best, diversity is one of the country’s greatest strengths, but in a time like the present–manipulated by cynical and ambitious politicians at the top–it’s morphed into a divisive conflict.
The clash of cultures is a prototypical theme of Turkish literature, as epitomized by the work of novelist and Nobel laureate Orhan Pamuk. But Livaneli brings the theme fully into the modern moment. There’s no trite quaintness to this clash: it’s imminent in its brutality, and this very moment is costing the lives and freedom of literally hundreds of thousands of Turks, imprisoned by a dictatorial regime that turns more repressive every year. Livaneli himself spent time in prison in the 1970s for protesting a previous military dictatorship and then lived in exile for over a decade. His work depicts the cruelty of Turkey’s culture wars with a literary virtuosity that demands a global audience.
In Disquiet, Livaneli tackles an impressive array of themes for such a short novel. Paramount among these is the racism experienced by immigrants: he cleverly juxtaposes the racism experienced by Turkish immigrants in Germany, victimized by white-skinned neo-nazis, with that enacted by Turks against their Syrian neighbors-turned-refugees in the wake of that country’s brutal civil war. In both cases, the individual becomes irrelevant. They’re instrumentalized into an object of fear, hate, and derision the moment they become immigrants in a foreign land. Ibrahim, the journalist-narrator, gradually excavates the humanity within these stereotyped tropes, which is what good journalism does.
It gives nothing away to observe that there is a tragic symmetry to the fate of the young man whose story the protagonist pursues. A local gang of ISIL supporters tried to murder him for being an insufficiently devout Muslim. He survives and flees their reach by immigrating to Germany, where he is then murdered by German right-wingers for being Muslim.
Ibrahim becomes obsessed with unraveling this young man’s story, and that of his would-be bride, a Yazidi refugee. What emerges is the story of two innocent, beautiful souls struggling to survive in the midst of a world sliding into violence. “There’s no place left on earth that’s peaceful,” muses the increasingly unsettled narrator. His knowledge of their stories leaves the journalist with a profound disquiet, a sense of innocence forever lost. It’s one the reader can’t help but share, and perhaps that’s the goal.
It gives away slightly more to discuss Disquiet’s conclusion, but I think it’s important to do so. It operates on multiple levels, the least palatable of which is the most superficial. A final chapter that’s set apart from the rest of the narrative tackles Ibrahim’s eventual discovery of Meleknaz, the Yazidi refugee. He becomes obsessed with her, pursuing her to the point of harassment, begging her to let him support her and take her under his wing.
I’d like to think this is more than simply a male narrator sliding into besotted misogyny, and indeed there seems to be more going on here. As the journalist Ibrahim pursues his story, he grapples with that perennial trope of Turkish literature: the struggle between ‘eastern’ and ‘western’ identities. His identity is situated in the first part of the story as firmly grounded in western modernity, his reaction to visiting the eastern villages of his youth, a faint scorn tinged with bemused nostalgia. But as he struggles to reconcile the casual violence of ISIL with the equally casual violence of the western world–expressed as much through its casual disregard of refugees as its active involvement in the region’s conflict–he reappraises this positioning, finding a new identification with his roots in the East.
Or does he? His obsessive fixation suggests he’s entered the most western of all orientations: the orientalist colonizer, determined to make the East love him at all costs. Meleknaz represents the East, and her refusal to accept his aid both mystifies and angers him. He tries different approaches. He cajoles her, begs her, yells at her, tries to bribe her, argues the pragmatism of his position. Nothing he does elicits the response he wants. He refuses to give up, her lack of interest in what he has to offer only aggravates his desire to make her respond to him with obedience and gratitude.
Never in my life had I seen – how can I put it, it wasn’t hatred, it wasn’t defiance (I was trying to find a word to describe what her eyes said), it wasn’t resentment either, perhaps indifference. Indifferent glances that said, ‘I don’t need your compassion, I don’t need anyone’s compassion.’
He begs her to help him by letting him help her. The final chapter, which is disquieting but in a different way, suggests Livaneli’s critique of our motives in offering help and aid. Is it to satisfy our own narcissistic urges? Or does it come from a place not of compassion but of honest desire to engage with our fellow human beings, as equals? This is the motive that drove his friend’s relationship with Meleknaz–less gratifying to one’s own ego, perhaps, but more authentic on a human level.
In his conclusion, Livaneli is urging us to reflect on the ways in which we engage (or don’t) with refugees, and our motives in doing so. (Angelina Jolie even makes an appearance in the novel, swooping in to grace the refugee camps with her fairy tale presence.) Livaneli also offers a gentle and nuanced appreciation of Yazidi culture. He doesn’t pretend to be thorough–his narrator is in a process of discovery as well. This approach allows him to temper an exoticizing western vantage with an appreciation that verges on the mystical and poetic at times.
The Yazidi follow a monotheistic faith with ancient and orally transmitted roots. From the taboo against lettuce (the only other thing most westerners know about them) to the tempered duality of the imperfect ‘Peacock Angel’ who presides over worldly affairs, Livaneli offers tantalizing glimpses of Yazidi faith and culture, the ways it’s been used to demonize and ‘other’ them in the region, and the role it plays during the violent present.
The plight of the Yazidis continues: ISIL’s genocide campaign was only the latest escalation in recurring violence faced by the group. Hundreds of thousands remain displaced in refugee camps on the Syrian border or abroad, unable to return to their home villages. While the western world mostly ignored their plight, for a time the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF)–in particular Kurdish militias–attempted to help them, fighting off ISIL and rescuing embattled groups of refugees.
In 2019 Turkey officially entered the conflict, invading northern Syria and pushing back SDF forces. Reports from the region suggest Turkish troops have continued ISIL’s brutal work, forcibly converting Yazidis to Islam, destroying cultural and religious sites, and killing refugees. Little wonder Livaneli’s work has come under government sanction in Turkey.
Disquiet is an important book, both as literature and politics. Grounded in the circumstances of the Yazidis, it speaks to globally transcendent themes of refugees and displaced populations the world over. Most importantly, it forces the reader to interrogate our own complicity in these ongoing tragedies, and what we can and should do to atone for them.

The Digital Renaissance: Embracing Technology for Cultural Revival
The rallying cry for a digital renaissance has become increasingly vibrant in our age of rapidly advancing technology. Advocates argue that by embracing the power of technology, we can usher in a new era of cultural revival, liberating humanity from the constraints of the past. However, amidst the clamour of this techno-utopian chorus, it is imperative to don the mantle of skepticism and question the assumptions underpinning this grand narrative. Are we indeed witnessing a renaissance or merely succumbing to the allure of a digital illusion?
First, we must scrutinize the notion of cultural revival itself. The term "renaissance" invokes images of profound intellectual and artistic achievements, as witnessed during the European Renaissance of the 14th to 17th centuries. It was a period marked by an unprecedented surge of human creativity, driven by a hunger for knowledge, a critical spirit, and a genuine desire to challenge the established order. Can we honestly claim that our digital age replicates these historical conditions? Have we cultivated the same intellectual rigour and unyielding pursuit of truth that characterized that transformative period?
The proponents of the digital Renaissance argue that technology, with its myriad wonders, has the potential to democratize culture, granting equal access to knowledge and fostering global interconnectedness. Undoubtedly, the internet has opened up new avenues for information dissemination, connecting individuals from disparate corners of the world. However, in our eagerness to embrace the digital realm, we must acknowledge that it has engendered a deluge of noise, misinformation, and shallow content. Moreover, the democratization of information has given rise to an overwhelming sea of data, where the line between reliable knowledge and baseless speculation becomes increasingly blurred.
Moreover, the notion of cultural revival implies a deep appreciation and engagement with the intellectual and artistic achievements of the past. While digital technology offers unprecedented access to abundant historical texts, artworks, and cultural artifacts, it also fosters an environment of passive consumption. We have become mere spectators, skimming the surface of knowledge without genuinely immersing ourselves in the profound insights and transformative experiences that great art and literature offer. The abundance of information at our fingertips has paradoxically diluted our ability to engage in deep, sustained contemplation and critical analysis.
To understand the implications of the digital revolution on cultural revival, we must turn to history for guidance. Ideas, movements, and processes from sustained intellectual discourse and critical engagement have shaped societal transformation example, the great Renaissance thinkers, such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Erasmus, didn't merely consume the knowledge of their time; they actively participated in intellectual debates, challenged prevailing dogmas, and pushed the boundaries of human understanding.
The danger of our digital age lies in its tendency to foster passive consumerism rather than active intellectual participation. As we mindlessly scroll through social media feeds, click on clickbait articles, and indulge in superficial entertainment, we become victims of a culture of distraction that stunts our capacity for deep thought and contemplation. The true essence of cultural revival lies not in accumulating facts and data but in cultivating an active intellectual and artistic engagement that sparks genuine creativity and critical thinking.
In pursuing the digital Renaissance, we must also confront the paradox of technological determinism. We are often led to believe that technology is an autonomous force steering the course of human history—however, historical lessons caution against such deterministic narratives. The transformative power of technology is contingent upon the intentions and actions of its human creators and users. We must resist the temptation to abdicate our responsibility to shape technology in line with our cultural aspirations. A mere tool can never be a panacea for our society's complex challenges.
Let us not forget the true essence of the Renaissance in its rebellious spirit, unyielding commitment to critical thinking, and relentless pursuit of truth and beauty. To truly embrace a digital renaissance, we must foster an environment that encourages intellectual curiosity, fosters deep engagement with ideas and art, and values the pursuit of truth over shallow gratification. We must wield technology as a tool, not a crutch, and remain steadfast in our commitment to intellectual rigour, unafraid to challenge prevailing narratives and the commodification of culture.
In conclusion, the notion of a digital renaissance warrants critical scrutiny. While digital technology offers unprecedented access to information and connectivity, it also poses significant challenges to genuine cultural revival. We must be cautious not to fall prey to the seductive allure of passive consumption and superficial engagement. Instead, we should strive to emulate the spirit of the great Renaissance thinkers, engaging in critical discourse, nurturing intellectual curiosity, and actively participating in creating a genuinely transformative cultural landscape. Only then can we transcend the illusion of a digital renaissance and embark on a true path toward cultural revival.

Winter Gardens are systemically assembled from individual elements. They can have hinged or swivel windows, a fixed or tilting roof, the vertical walls can be both fixed and sliding. It all depends on the specific project and the customer's wishes.
Very few often winter gardens are already included in the construction project. If this is not the case, they can be added additionally. That's most of the cases.
