अयोध्या की व्यवस्था पर संत मिथिलेश नंदिनी शरण का सवाल, ‘विकास या सांस्कृतिक परिवर्तन?’

दिल्ली में आयोजित अयोध्या महोत्सव के दौरान अयोध्या की व्यवस्था और हालात को लेकर एक बड़ा बयान सामने आया है. अयोध्या हनुमत निवास के अध्यक्ष आदिश्वर संत मिथिलेश नंदिनी शरण ने मंच से अयोध्या के वर्तमान स्वरूप पर सवाल उठाए. यह कार्यक्रम इंदिरा गांधी राष्ट्रीय कला केंद्र में आयोजित किया गया था, जहां कई प्रमुख लोग मौजूद थे। अपने संबोधन में संत ने अयोध्या में हो रहे बदलावों पर चिंता जताते हुए इसे ‘सांस्कृतिक विनाश’ बताया. उनके इस बयान ने कार्यक्रम में मौजूद लोगों का ध्यान खींचा.

‘विकास या बदलती पहचान?’
संत मिथिलेश नंदिनी शरण ने कहा कि आज अयोध्या में ऐसे बदलाव देखने को मिल रहे हैं, जो इसकी मूल पहचान से अलग हैं. उन्होंने सवाल उठाते हुए कहा कि लोग अब हनीमून के लिए गोवा की जगह अयोध्या आने लगे हैं, क्या यही विकास है? उनके मुताबिक, अयोध्या की धार्मिक और सांस्कृतिक पहचान धीरे-धीरे बदल रही है, जो चिंता का विषय है।

प्रशासन पर भी उठे सवाल
अपने भाषण में उन्होंने अयोध्या के प्रशासनिक रवैये पर भी सवाल उठाए. उन्होंने कहा कि अगर किसी व्यक्ति के प्रशासन से अच्छे संबंध नहीं हैं तो उसका अयोध्या में रहना मुश्किल हो जाता है. उन्होंने यह भी कहा कि अगर किसी की मौत भी हो जाती है तो भी प्रशासनिक बाधाएं दूर नहीं होती हैं, जो व्यवस्था पर गंभीर सवाल खड़ा करता है.

संत परंपरा को लेकर चिंता व्यक्त की
संत ने कहा कि अयोध्या में संत परंपरा की परिभाषा भी बदलती दिख रही है. उनके मुताबिक, प्रशासन के लिए अब संत परंपरा का मतलब सिर्फ संतों को सुरक्षा मुहैया कराना रह गया है, जबकि उनकी सामाजिक और धार्मिक भूमिका को नजरअंदाज किया जा रहा है. उन्होंने इस बदलाव को चिंताजनक भी बताया.

कार्यक्रम में कई प्रमुख लोग मौजूद थे
इस दौरान कार्यक्रम में राम मंदिर ट्रस्ट के महासचिव चंपत राय और पूर्व सांसद लल्लू सिंह भी मौजूद रहे. संत मिथिलेश नंदिनी शरण राम मंदिर पुजारी चयन एवं प्रशिक्षण समिति के भी अहम सदस्य रहे हैं, इसलिए उनके बयान को खास अहमियत दी जा रही है.

‘अयोध्या अजेय है’-संत का संदेश
अपने संबोधन के अंत में संत ने कहा कि अयोध्या अजेय है और इसे कोई जीत नहीं सकता. उन्होंने यह भी कहा कि समय आने पर अयोध्या अपने साथ होने वाले हर अन्याय का जवाब जरूर देती है. यह कार्यक्रम हर साल दिल्ली में पूर्व सांसद लल्लू सिंह द्वारा आयोजित किया जाता है, जिसमें अयोध्या से जुड़े मुद्दों पर चर्चा की जाती है.

New Delhi: Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee On Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi was questioned as to why he did not heed Pakistan’s threat to attack Kolkata.Addressing an election rally in Nadia district, he said, “You (Prime Minister) target Bengal during election rallies, but when Pakistan talks about attacking Bengal, you do not utter a single word. You should resign.Expressing concern over the Centre’s response, he raised questions PM ModiHe maintained silence on the issue during his recent rally in Cooch Behar.“Why did the Prime Minister not raise this issue during his rally in Bengal? When the Defense Minister of Pakistan says they will attack Kolkata, why did the Prime Minister not say ‘we will take strong action’?”Banerjee stressed that threats to the country and the state will not be tolerated. “Just as we do not accept any threat to the country, we will not tolerate any threat to Kolkata,” he said.His comments came after Pakistan Defense Minister Khawaja Asif warned that Islamabad would respond with strikes on Kolkata in case of any ‘future misadventure’ by India.Speaking to reporters in Sialkot, Asif said, “If India tries to conduct a false flag operation this time, God willing, we will take it to Kolkata.”The statement comes after heightened tensions between India and Pakistan in recent months, with both sides issuing stern warnings. Responding to India’s stance on cross-border threats, Asif had earlier described Pakistan’s response to any Indian action as “swift, balanced and decisive”.India has said it will respond strongly to any cross-border threat, while also reiterating that it does not differentiate between terrorist groups and those supporting them.(With inputs from PTI)

Mark Hamill reveals when his son told him ‘Star Wars isn’t for him’: Here’s what happened

Mark Hamill reveals when his son told him 'Star Wars isn't for him': Here's what happened

Imagine you are one of the iconic heroes of a famous franchise like ‘Star Wars’ and your own child is not that excited about it! mark hamillHe got this taste from his own son.Hamill has spent decades at the center of ‘Star Wars.’ After all, he is Luke Skywalker, the face of a saga that has shaped pop culture for generations. You would think that the magic of Star Wars would be a family tradition in their house. But life is rarely so orderly. Turns out, his son isn’t that much “interested” in his father’s great work on screen.

Mark Hamill’s revelation: What did he say?

According to USA Today, in a recent interview, Mark Hamill opened up about sharing his world of ‘Star Wars’ with his children. Hamill revealed that his eldest son, Nathan, grew up here. Hamill brought him to the set during “Return of the Jedi,” let him sit in Yoda’s hut, and even had him sit on the Emperor’s throne. According to Hamill, “He was totally into it.” Hamill continued, “He could sit in Yoda’s house because he was younger. It was completely proportional. He sat on the emperor’s throne. He was in the pet store and they were letting him play with things. When I did ‘The Muppet Show,’ it was the same thing. I thought, ‘What an amazing experience that was for him.’ … I was almost jealous of all these experiences he had.”However, his younger son Griffin, born in 1983, saw things differently. In fact, Hamill laughed about it, saying: “My other son, Griffin, is more analytical and serious, and he says: ‘You know, the Star Wars movies are not for me. They’re too commercial for my liking,'” Hamill shared.It wasn’t harsh – just an honest confession from someone of a different generation.However, Hamill revealed that his daughter likes the movies, unlike his younger son, saying, “My daughter loves them. Kids are just different!”For Hamill, this moment was definitely a little painful. But it’s also a reminder: As much as ‘Star Wars’ seems like a permanent fixture, tastes change, especially across generations. Generations change. What surprised audiences in 1977 isn’t always the same for kids growing up today, surrounded by endless choices and fascinating influences. Even at Luke Skywalker’s house, you don’t get a guaranteed ticket for fans.

More on Mark Hamill and ‘Star Wars’

For those unaware, Hamill has a deep connection to ‘Star Wars’. Hamill rose to fame as an idealistic farm boy who becomes a Jedi Knight. That role changed his life, but Hamill’s career continued to grow. He built a reputation on Broadway, became a legend in voice acting (his Joker is iconic), and popped up in everything from “The Big Red One” to “The Fall of the House of Usher.” But Luke Skywalker always remains the original.The truth is, ‘Star Wars’ has always been about change. george lucas Started something massive, and it’s just growing: movies, TV, comics, games. This is a cultural chariot. But this means that the audience also keeps changing. What seemed revolutionary decades ago is just one story among thousands for a new audience.These days, Hamill is still playing in the ‘Star Wars’ sandbox. He voiced the animated Luke in ‘Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy,’ and now he’s teaming up with Lego to launch a new series of sets that use interactive Smart Play technology. The bricks glow, make noises and react as you build, which is a far cry from the simple toys of the 80s and a testament to the developments that have happened over the years.

Germany is building the world’s tallest wind turbine at 364 meters in a coal mine, and it could transform renewable energy. world News

Germany is building the world's tallest wind turbine at 364 meters in a coal mine, and it could transform renewable energy

Germany is undergoing a historic industrial transformation, symbolized by the construction of the world’s tallest 364-meter-high wind turbine. It is an engineering feat built in a historically mined area, marking a significant shift toward generating clean, renewable energy from fossil fuels. By building at a minimum height of 364 metres, they will be at higher altitudes where winds will be stronger and more consistent, therefore better able to generate more electricity as well as better stabilize clean electricity networks. Not only is it going to be the tallest wind turbine on record, but this project will provide real scientific evidence that dormant carbon-intensive assets are capable of being reclaimed and transformed into global leaders in sustainable innovation.

Germany sets a new record with the world’s tallest wind turbine at a height of 364 meters

Building the 364 meter high structure required special engineering to resist atmospheric turbulence and structural loading. According to the technical assessment report prepared by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, increasing the height of the turbine rotors allows turbines to reach ‘low-level jets’ – fast-flowing winds that are often more stable than low-level winds. Because of this increase in turbine hub height, the turbines will have a much higher capacity factor than they would if they were installed at or near ground level. This means that even when there are very few winds blowing on the Earth’s surface, these turbines will generate electricity almost continuously.

Why are former coal mines ideal wind farms?

Selecting an area in a previously historic coal mining area will provide efficient integration into the grid. The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) indicates that the re-use of ‘brownfield’ sites (former industrial sites) offers the highest efficiency for energy production as they usually contain the necessary power transmission lines and transformer station infrastructure to supply large amounts of electricity into the national grid. Therefore, using previously destroyed mining communities for site location minimizes the environmental impact of any new transmission lines, while providing an opportunity for the redevelopment of the economy of traditional mining communities.

Physics of carbon-fibre blades

To ensure safe operation at extreme altitudes, the turbine will use advanced materials science. Studies by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have shown that as turbines become larger, blade weight becomes a limiting factor in turbine operation. To overcome this problem, carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer composites will be used in the construction of the 364 meter high turbine blades, giving them a much better strength/weight ratio than conventional fiberglass blades. As a result, the turbine blades will capture more kinetic energy without placing excessive load on the main bearing or nacelle.

How a giant vertical wind farm takes up space

The overall success of the project serves as a blueprint for the European Environment Agency’s (EEA) goal of achieving climate neutrality. Germany will demonstrate how a single ultra-tall turbine can replace multiple smaller units, thus providing an opportunity to reduce ‘land-use intensity’. Further scientific modeling has indicated that these taller turbines could generate twice as much energy as their conventional counterparts; Therefore, they will be important to meet the energy production requirements of downstream industries while avoiding excessive expansion of land use.
