Thought for the day

 Thinking too much (what if type of questions) can only cause problems; stay cool (as much as you can!)

 Laws in India | Labour Laws | Child Labour

India has very rigid labour laws. Over 50 national and many more state level laws there to protect the interest of Employees or Employers. (However, in reality, most of these laws are there to protect the ‘Interest’ of Government  Labour Officers)

  • It is estimated by Union Government that over 12 million kids (in the age group of 5- 14 years) are working in the industry or agriculture. Article 24 of India’s constitution prohibits child labour.
  • Additionally, various laws and the Indian Penal Code, such as the Juvenile Justice (care and protection) of Children Act-2000, and the Child Labour (Prohibition and Abolition) Act-1986 provide a basis in law to identify, prosecute and stop child labour in India.

Listening | If you don’t understand something, ask for an explanation, a habit that comes naturally to a good listener (careful, don’t interrupt too much)

General Elections | Voters # 2

  • EVM – stands for Electronic Voting  Machine
  • EVM  was first introduced in 1989
  • EVMs run on an ordinary 6 volt alkaline battery. Therefore, even in areas with no power connections, EVMs can be used
  • EVMs can record a maximum of 3840 votes. As normally the total number of electors in a polling station will not exceed 1500, the capacity of EVMs is more than sufficient.
  •  EVMs can cater to a maximum of 64 candidates. There is provision for 16 candidates in a Balloting Unit. If the total number of candidates exceeds 16, a second Balloting Unit can be linked parallel to the first Balloting Unit. Similarly, if the total number of candidates exceeds 32, a third Balloting Unit can be attached and if the total number of candidates exceeds 48, a fourth Balloting Unit can be attached to cater to a maximum of 64 candidates
