NATIONAL POPULATION POLICY, 2000 :
✅ Reproductive Health Focus: Emphasizes voluntary and informed consent for reproductive healthcare.
✅ Child and Maternal Health: Aims to reduce infant mortality rate (IMR) to <30/1000, maternal mortality rate (MMR) to <100/100,000, achieve 80% institutional deliveries, and ensure 100% trained personnel for deliveries.
✅ Timeline Targets: Immediate focus on addressing contraception, healthcare infrastructure, and personnel; mid-term goal to achieve a total fertility rate (TFR) of 2.1 by 2010; long-term goal for a stable population by 2045.
✅ Disease Control and AYUSH Integration: Links with AYUSH for public health goals and integrates programs for communicable diseases, like TB elimination.
✅Youth Targets: Free and compulsory school education until age 14; encourages girls to marry after age 18, preferably 20.
Five Year Plans Associated with population :
✅ First Plan: Launched in 1952, India pioneered global population control with a focus on natural family planning
methods.
✅ Third Plan: Adopted sterilization for both sexes and introduced the copper-T; established the Family Planning Department.
✅ Fourth Plan: Encouraged all birth control methods, both conventional and modern.
✅ Fifth Plan: Announced the National Population Policy in 1976, raised marriage age (boys: 21, girls: 18), and initially permitted forced sterilization, later discontinued.

SOCIALISM VS MARXISM
✅ Economic System: Socialism advocates for collective or state ownership of production and distribution. Marxism seeks a classless society with communal ownership of production
✅ Class Analysis: Socialism focuses on reducing social inequality and exploitation. Marxism Identifies society as divided into 'Haves' and 'Have Nots,' aiming to overthrow capitalism
✅ Role of State: In Socialism the state manages production, redistributes wealth, and provides social welfare. Marxism envisions a transition to Communism, eventually leading to the state's dissolution
✅ Vision of Society: Socialism aims to reduce poverty, provide social services, and achieve economic justice. Marxism envisions a classless society with no social, political, or economic inequalities.

NARROW BAND INTERNET OF THINGS (NB-IOT) :
NB-IoT technology is a low power wide area technology that may be used almost everywhere.
✅ Will allow many devices to connect to IoT, allowing development of new applications.
✅ Designed for applications that send tiny quantities of data across great distances.
✅ Secure and dependable since it runs on licensed spectrum, offering assured service quality.
✅ Integrates into cellular systems ensuring easy deployment. Links devices to existing mobile networks more easily, effectively.
✅ Securely and reliably handles tiny quantities of very occasional two-way communication.
✅ Optimised for low power consumption.
✅ Extended long-range coverage and deep penetration both indoors and underground.

Waves Of Globalization
globalization 1.0
✅Era: Pre-World War I, marked by significant reductions in trade costs.
✅ Characteristics: Minimal government involvement and lack of global governance.
GLOBALIZATION 2.0
✅Era: Post-World War II, characterized by increased goods trade and supportive domestic policies.
✅ Governance: Introduction of rule-based international governance with institutions like the UN, IMF, World Bank, GATT/WTO, and International Labor Organization.
✅ Economic Role: Markets drove efficiency, while governments focused on justice.
GLOBALIZATION 3.0
✅ Manufacturing: Integration of high-tech and low wages transformed manufacturing.
✅ Supply Chains: Development of global supply chains as factories expanded across borders.
GLOBALIZATION 4.0
✅ Competition: Intensifies for service-oriented professionals due to deeper market integration.
✅ Technology: AI, IoT, big data, and cyber-physical systems revolutionize the service sector.
✅ Work Dynamics: Remote work, driven by faster data connections, changes migration patterns and work habits.

Water Pollution
✅ As per NITI Aayog, overall, 70 percent of the freshwater sources in the country were found to be contaminated
and India ranks 120 out of 122 countries in terms of water quality.
Causes of Water Pollution :
✅ Water pollutants come from either point sources or dispersed sources. A point source is a pipe or channel, such as those used for discharge from an industrial facility or a city sewerage system.
✅A dispersed (or nonpoint) source is a very broad unconfined area from which a variety of pollutants enter the water body, such as the runoff from an agricultural area.
🔸 Domestic Sewage
🔸 Solid waste
🔸 Toxic waste
✅Impacts of Water Pollution: Destruction of biodiversity. Water pollution depletes aquatic ecosystems and triggers unbridled proliferation of phytoplankton in lakes — eutrophication. Contamination of the food chain
Initiatives to Control Water Pollution:
National Measures:
✅ Legal Measures: Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act of 1974 and the Environment (Protection) Act of 1986. Preparation of action plan for sewage management and restoration of water quality in aquatic resources by State Governments
✅ Financial assistance for installation of Common Effluent Treatment Plants for cluster of Small Scale Industrial units
✅ Issuance of directions for implementation of Zero Liquid Discharge
✅ Implementation of National Lake Conservation Plan (NLCP) and National Wetland Conservation Programme (NWCP)for conservation and management of identified lakes and wetlands
International efforts:
✅ The Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (Water Convention) is a unique international legal instrument which aims to ensure the sustainable use of transboundary water resources
✅ The Protocol on Water and Health, jointly serviced by UNECE and WHO-Europe, is a unique legally binding instrument aiming to protect human health by better water management and by reducing water-related diseases.
✅SDG-6: By 2030, achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all.

The Hon’ble Supreme Court observed in Union of India v/s Association for Democratic Reforms, “One-sided information, disinformation, misinformation and non-information, all equally create an uninformed citizenry which makes democracy a farce.
Green Politics : Green politics are a set of political ideologies and social movements which places a high importance on ecological and environmental goals, and on achieving these goals through broad-based, grassroots, participatory democracy.
