Elections to the '''[[Assam Legislative Assembly]]''' were held in April 1996 to elect members of 122 constituencies in [[Assam]], India. The [[Indian National Congress]] (INC) won the popular vote, but the [[Asom Gana Parishad]] (AGP) won the most seats and [[Prafulla Kumar Mahanta]] was appointed as the [[Chief Minister of Assam]] for his second term.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://theshillongtimes.com/2021/03/09/former-cm-prafulla-mahanta-not-to-contest-assam-polls/ |title=Former CM Prafulla Mahanta not to contest Assam polls |quote=Mahanta has represented the seat for as many as seven terms from 1985, having served as chief minister for two terms from 1985-90 and 1996-2001, in between. |newspaper=The Shillong Times |date=9 March 2021 |access-date= 14 April 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://assamassembly.gov.in/cm-list.html |title=Assam Legislative Assembly - Chief Ministers since 1937 |publisher=Assam Legislative Assembly |access-date= 13 May 2006 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060513013923/http://assamassembly.gov.in/cm-list.html |archive-date=13 May 2006}}</ref> The number of constituencies was set as 126, by the recommendation of the [[Delimitation Commission of India]],<ref name="delimitation1976">{{cite web |url=https://old.eci.gov.in/files/file/3939-dpaco-1976/ |title=DPACO (1976) - Archive Delimitation Orders |publisher=[[Election Commission of India]] |access-date= December 9, 2020}}</ref> but elections were held in only 122 constituencies.

==Background==
In 1991, the [[Indian Army]] was tasked with executing ''Operation Rhino'' against the [[United Liberation Front of Assam]].<ref>https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/special-report/story/19911015-various-army-operations-launched-against-ulfa-814916-1991-10-14</ref> In 1993, the six-year agitation by the ''All Bodo Students' Union'' in Assam demanding a separate state within India ended with a peace accord that established an [[Autonomous administrative divisions of India|autonomous district council]].<ref>George, Sudhir Jacob. “The Bodo Movement in Assam: Unrest to Accord.” ''Asian Survey, vol. 34, no. 10, 1994''. pp. 878–92. JSTOR, https://doi.org/10.2307/2644967. Accessed 30 Jan. 2026.</ref>

The [[Chief Minister of Assam]], [[Hiteswar Saikia]], died in Delhi, on 22 April 1996, only 5 days before the election.<ref>{{cite book |author=Chandra Nath Boruah |title=Assamese Response to Regionalism: A Study Based on Electoral Politics|url=https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/Assamese_response_to_regionalism/r21CqfspU1MC?hl|publisher=Mittal Publications |year=2009 |isbn=9788183242813 |page=64 |quote=Nevertheless, the AGP's coming back to the Janta Bhawan, Dispur was also helped partially by the sudden demise of chief Minister Hiteshwar Saikia on 22nd April 1996 in New Delhi which shocked the party cadres of the Congress(I). }}</ref> [[Bhumidhar Barman]] was sworn in as interim chief-minister, but as the Indian National Congress failed to form the government after the elections, his tenure lasted 22 days. The party's defeat was attributed to Saikia's death, which unravelled the electoral coalition he had built up in opposition to the resurgent Asom Gana Parishad.<ref>https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/cover-story/story/19960531-fragile-victory-753113-1996-05-30</ref><ref>https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/cover-story/story/19960531-elections-1996-agp-bounces-back-to-defeat-a-weak-congress-in-assam-832980-1996-05-30</ref><ref>https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/cover-story/story/19960430-elections-1996-assam-seems-headed-for-a-hung-assembly-835101-1996-04-29</ref>

In 1991, former Home Minister, [[Bhrigu Phukan|Bhrigu Kumar Phukan]], formed the [[Natun Asom Gana Parishad]] (NAGP) in opposition to the policies of Asom Gana Parishad leader, [[Prafulla Kumar Mahanta]]. Phukan merged the NAGP back with the AGP before the 1996 elections.<ref name="election-politics">{{Cite book|url=https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/Election_Politics_in_Assam/4oKKAAAAMAAJ?hl|title=Election Politics in Assam: Issues, Trends, and People's Mandate|last1=Ahmed|first1=Abu Nasar Saied|last2=Baruah|first2=Joydeep|last3=Bhuyan|first3=Ratna|year=2006|isbn=978-8183700573|page=96|publisher=Akansha Publishing House}}</ref> The AGP formed also a five-party pre-poll electoral alliance before the elections with the [[Communist Party of India|CPI]], the [[Communist Party of India (Marxist)|CPI(M)]], the [[Autonomous State Demand Committee|ASDC]] and the [[United Minorities Front, Assam|UMFA]].<ref>{{cite book |title=India Votes, Elections 1996: A Critical Analysis |author=Meenu Roy |year=1996 |isbn=9788171009008 |publisher=Deep & Deep Publications |url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=Wm2dVWi-2I4C|access-date=4 July 2022|page=102}}</ref>

==Controversies==
=== Interruptions in production ===

==== Veyil ====
By the end of 2019, Shane received a death threat from Malayalam film producer Joby George, which the actor shared through [[Facebook]] live, causing controversy.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2019-10-17|title=Shane Nigam alleges 'threat to life' from producer for getting a haircut|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/malayalam/shane-nigam-threat-to-life-haircut-veyil-producer-joby-george-6073435/|access-date=2022-02-02|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}</ref> The issue seemed to have been resolved through mediation from [[Association of Malayalam Movie Artists|AMMA]]. However, he disrupted the continuity of the movie ''[[Veyil (Malayalam Movie)|Veyil]],'' by getting a haircut during principal photography, leading to producers calling for a ban on the actor.

==== RDX ====
During the filming of the movie [[RDX (film)|RDX]], Shane Nigam reportedly walked off the set mid-shoot, alleging that his character was not given enough importance in the film, leading to a major disruption in production and subsequent backlash from the producers and film industry associations against him; this incident involved accusations of unprofessional behaviour and demands for greater prominence in the movie by Nigam.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movies/news/shane-nigam-writes-to-amma-calls-the-allegations-made-by-rdx-producer-sophia-paul-baseless-and-false/articleshow/99835454.cms|title=Shane Nigam writes to AMMA, calls the allegations made by 'RDX producer Sophia Paul 'baseless' and false'|date=28 April 2023|via=The Economic Times - The Times of India}}</ref>

=== Political/religious leaning ===
He supported the 'All Eyes on Rafah' campaign and claimed in his [[Instagram]] story that he is a ‘Sudapi from [[India]]’.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.onmanorama.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/2024/05/29/actor-shane-nigam-solidarity-gaza-pic-keffiyeh.html|title=Sudapi from India: Shane Nigam posts pic wearing keffiyeh in solidarity with Gaza|website=Sudapi from India: Shane Nigam posts pic wearing keffiyeh in solidarity with Gaza}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://keralakaumudi.com/en/news/news.php?id=1315185&u=sudapi-from-india-shane-nigams-instagram-story-raises-eyebrows-1315185|title='Sudapi from India'; Shane Nigam's Instagram story raises eyebrows|first=Keralakaumudi|last=Daily|website=Keralakaumudi Daily}}</ref>

=== Unni Mukundan ===
He mocked [[Unni Mukundan]] and his fans by referring to them as ‘UMFI’ (an informal [[Malayalam]] word referring to people engaging in fellatio) (Unni Mukundan Fans Association of India) without any provocation.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://thesouthfirst.com/entertainment/shane-nigams-apologises-to-unni-mukundan-for-his-cryptic-remark-during-little-hearts-promotions/|title=Shane Nigam apologises to Unni Mukundan for his cryptic remark during 'Little Hearts' promotions|first=South First|last=Desk|date=6 June 2024|website=The South First}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2019-11-29|title=Kerala Film Producers Association bans actor Shane Nigam for 'indiscipline'|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/malayalam/kerala-film-producers-association-bans-shane-nigam-6141301/|access-date=2022-02-02|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite news| url = https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/shane-nigam-issue-ends-as-amma-kfpa-reach-an-agreement/article30988866.ece/| title = Shane Nigam issue ends as AMMA, KFPA reach an agreement - The Hindu| newspaper = The Hindu| date = 5 March 2020}}</ref>

It is believed that such groups were often nomadic in the past and settled into small villages, which were to be known as "Prostitute villages". During the [[British Raj|colonial period]], such groups were often classified as "criminal tribes" under the [[Criminal Tribes Act]], and often lost their traditional sources of income, such as dancers, under the resulting persecution which forced the women to adopt prostitution.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2013/1/19/nat-purwa-where-prostitution-is-a-tradition|title=Nat Purwa: Where prostitution is a tradition|publisher=Al Jazeera|accessdate=2 January 2021|date=19 January 2013}}</ref> Even though they are now termed Denotified and Nomadic Tribes of India (DNTs), they are still more commonly known to mainstream society as "Criminal Tribes".<ref name=AlJazeera>{{cite news|url=https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2016/11/28/the-indian-caste-where-wives-are-forced-into-sex-work|title=The Indian caste where wives are forced into sex work|publisher=Al Jazeera|accessdate=2 January 2021|date=28 November 2016}}</ref>

Among the Bacchara, according to Monalika Tiwari, a social worker with the organization Jan Sahas, men are generally not expected to work, while at least one girl in most families is expected to become a prostitute instead of getting married.<ref name=PRI/> Girls are married or enter sex work between 10 and 12,<ref name=IndianExpress/> and most turn into sex work before they are 18.<ref name=TheQuint/> While boys are often preferred to girls in the country, with sex-selective abortions causing a skewed gender ratio, the birth of girls among some low-caste villages built around prostitution is celebrated as the arrival of future breadwinners. They are groomed by their own families into prostitution, often from birth, with reports of younger girls stowed under beds to observe others at work.<ref name=TheGuardian/> The younger the girl, the higher the price tends to be for sexual services.<ref name=AlJazeera2/> The girls often have their virginity auctioned to the highest bidder.

== Plot ==
Avinash and Diya are an newly married couple and all of a sudden both of them get kidnapped and are left abandoned in a hill. Avinash becomes conscious whereas Diya ishone where his car gets blasted. He takes Diya to an abandoned shed and sends a voice message to Sid.

Right after the car blast he gets a call on his phone asking him to deliver money to locations which he will specify later. The anonymous caller warns him that failure to comply will cause a bomb implanted in his throat to explode, which he demonstrates with a shared video on the phone. A frantic Avi calls his Boss Sid and asks him to arrange the cash to his location.

Once Diya regains consciousness, the movie switches back and forth between Avi’s flashback and current scenario. It shows how an ambitious Avi reaches Bangalore from Kerala, his chance meeting with Diya at a roadside eatery which eventually develops into a relationship and how his Boss Sid recruits him after they meet in the same eatery run by Avi’s friend, who was impressed with Avi’s marketing knowledge. After an interview, he is hired as a marketing head of Sid’s cigarette company. Once hired, Avi quickly increases the company sales with his strategies and becomes Sid’s trusted aide. Once Sid’s father, the company owner, decides to retire, he appoints Sid as the new boss, much to the chagrin of his brother Praveen.

Back to the present, Avi notices a car coming outside the shed they are in and starts checking for money. Suddenly, someone starts shooting him. Avi barely escapes and finds a gun in the car trunk. He shoots and kills the anonymous killer, and he falls into a cliff amidst their struggles. Back at the shed, he plans to escape out with Diya. Avi thinks the killer was arranged by either Sid or Praveen due to their fallout with Avi

When Diya starts feeling uncomfortable, Avi reveals the truth that the bomb is actually planted in her throat, not his, and per the anonymous caller, if she keeps smoking cigarettes, she will gain one hour for each cigarette which will be reflected in the watch he left with them (with a ticking timer for the bomb). Diya has no other option but to start smoking and keep at it, while she asks the reason for this situation.

Again going to the flashback, Sid’s partner, a corrupt minister, asks them to start a new cheaper brand of cigarettes, since his govt. is going to raise the taxes on the existing brands and they can make more money if they themselves start selling the new ones. Avi and Sid have a fallout when Avi learns that a lot of children have started using his cigarette brand because of the aggressive marketing and feel morally responsible.

Back in the present, they learn that Sid is coming back to Bangalore from his driver and kidnaps him from the airport at gunpoint. Back at the shed, they make him call Praveen to get them the money. They set off with the money from Praveen to deliver it to the two people as per the caller’s address after tying up Sid and Praveen.

When the police arrive at the shed, they find Praveen dead and Sid injured. The police as well as the minister’s goons start looking for Avi and Diya. They manage to deliver the money to both the recipients of the caller. Going after the recipient’s family background, they start tailing the caller and finally find him to be an anonymous man with army background. Because of Avi’s marketing, his daughter became a chain smoker/addict and even lost her baby due to passive smoking. It was that man's revenge

Simran Singh of ''[[Daily News and Analysis|DNA]]'' observed that "Overall, One Two Cha Cha Cha is an honest attempt at character-based comedy.

The same question was also held as a survey among 100 men and if the ranking of any of the actresses match with the survey ranking then she won Rs. 5 lakh.

== Episodes ==
The show had about 10 episodes, including a special episode with 8 married television actresses and another episode with contestants from reality show ''[[Swayamvar (TV series)#Season 2|Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayega]]''. Every episode had eight participants.

== Hosts ==
Television actors [[Jay Bhanushali]] and [[Shabbir Ahluwalia]] hosted all the episodes.

== Participants ==

'''Nursing''' is a [[health care]] profession that "integrates the art and science of caring and focuses on the protection, promotion, and optimization of health and human functioning; prevention of illness and injury; facilitation of healing; and alleviation of suffering through compassionate presence".<ref>{{Cite book |last=Association |first=American Nurses |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nBH1zQEACAAJ&q=Nursing:+Scope+and+Standards+of+Practice,+Fourth+Edition |title=Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice |date=2021-05-30 |publisher=American Nurses Association |isbn=978-0-9993088-6-8 |language=en}}</ref> Nurses practice in many [[List of nursing specialties|specialties]] with varying levels of certification and responsibility.

Nurses develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with [[physicians]], [[therapist]]s, patients, patients' families, and other team members that focuses on treating illness to improve quality of life.

In the United Kingdom and the United States, clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners diagnose health problems and prescribe medications and other therapies, depending on regulations that vary by state.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Nursing {{!}} The SAGE Encyclopedia of Economics and Society |url=https://search.credoreference.com/content/entry/sageeas/nursing/0|access-date=2022-02-18|website=search.credoreference.com|language=en}}</ref> Nurses may help coordinate care performed by other providers or act independently as nursing professionals.

In the U.S., nurse practitioners are nurses with a graduate degree in advanced practice nursing, and are permitted to prescribe medications. They practice independently in a variety of settings in more than half of the United States. In the [[Post-war|postwar]] period, nurse education has diversified, awarding [[Nursing credentials and certifications|advanced and specialized credentials]], and many traditional regulations and roles are changing.<ref>Coulehan J.

During the [[Reformation]], [[Protestant]] reformers shut down monasteries and convents, allowing a few hundred municipal hospices to remain in operation in northern Europe.

During the [[Crimean War]], [[Princess Charlotte of Württemberg|Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna]] called for women to join the Order of Exaltation of the Cross (''Krestodvizhenskaya Obshchina'') for a year of service in military hospitals. The first section of twenty-eight "sisters", headed by Aleksandra Petrovna Stakhovich, the Directress of the Order, reached Crimea early in November 1854.<ref>{{Cite journal |jstor=2492652|last1=Curtiss |first1=John Shelton |title=Russian Sisters of Mercy in the Crimea, 1854-1855 |journal=Slavic Review |year=1966 |volume=25 |issue=1 |pages=84–100 |doi=10.2307/2492652 |pmid=11633166 |s2cid=43448185 }}</ref>

[[File:Florence Nightingale (H Hering NPG x82368).jpg|upright|thumb|[[Florence Nightingale]] was an influential figure in the development of modern nursing. No uniform had been created when Nightingale was employed during the [[Crimean War]]. Often considered the first nurse theorist, Nightingale linked health with five environmental factors: (1) pure or fresh air, (2) pure water, (3) efficient drainage, (4) cleanliness, and (5) light, especially direct sunlight. Deficiencies in these five factors resulted in a lack of health or illness.<ref>Professional Nursing Practice: Concepts and perspective, Koernig & Hayes, sixth edition, 2011, p.100, {{ISBN|978-0-13-508090-0}}</ref> Both the role of nursing and education were first defined by Nightingale.]]

Nightingale believed that nursing was a social freedom and mission for women. She believed that any educated woman could help improve the care of the ill.<ref>{{Cite web |title=nursing {{!}} History, Education, & Practices |url=https://www.britannica.com/science/nursing |access-date=2022-03-31 |website=britannica.com |language=en}}</ref> Her ''[[Notes on Nursing]]'' (1859) was a popular call to action. The Nightingale model of nursing education led to one of the [[Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery|first schools of nursing]] to be connected to a hospital and medical school. It spread widely in Europe and North America after 1870.<ref name="Quinn">{{cite book|last=Quinn|first=Shawna M.|title=Agnes Warner and the Nursing Sisters of the Great War|url=http://www.gooselane.com/media/741.pdf|publisher=Goose Lane editions and the New Brunswick Military Heritage Project |date=2010|isbn=978-0-86492-633-3|access-date=29 November 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924023052/http://www.gooselane.com/media/741.pdf|archive-date=24 September 2015}}</ref>

Nightingale included five factors that helped nurses in her time who worked amidst poor sanitation and little education. These factors include fresh air, clean water, a working drainage system, cleanliness, and good light. Nightingale believed that a clean working environment was important in caring for patients. In the 19th century, this theory was ideal for helping patients, providing a guide for nurses to alter the environment around patients for the betterment of their health.<ref>{{Cite web |first=Angelo |last=Gonzalo |date=August 4, 2014 |title=Florence Nightingale: Environmental Theory |url=https://nurseslabs.com/florence-nightingales-environmental-theory/ |access-date=2022-09-02 |website=Nurseslabs |language=en-US}}</ref>

Nightingale's recommendations built upon the successes of Jamaican "doctresses" such as [[Mary Seacole]], who like Nightingale, served in the Crimean War. Seacole practised hygiene and the use of herbs in healing wounded soldiers and those suffering from diseases in the 19th century in the Crimea, Central America, and Jamaica. Her predecessors had great success as healers in the [[Colony of Jamaica]] in the 18th century, and they included Seacole's mother (Mrs. Grant), Sarah Adams, [[Cubah Cornwallis]], and Grace Donne, the mistress and doctress to Jamaica's wealthiest planter, [[Simon Taylor (sugar planter)|Simon Taylor]].<ref>{{Cite book |last=Ferguson |first=Moira |url=https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/10.4324/9780203760697/nine-black-women-moira-ferguson |title=Nine Black Women: An Anthology of Nineteenth-Century Writers from the United States, Canada, Bermuda and the Caribbean |date=2016-01-04 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-0-203-76069-7 |location=New York |doi=10.4324/9780203760697}}</ref>

Other important nurses in the development of the profession include:
*[[Agnes Hunt]] from [[Shropshire]] was the first [[Orthopaedic nursing|orthopedic nurse]] and was pivotal in the emergence of the orthopedic hospital, the Robert Jones & Agnes Hunt Hospital in [[Oswestry]], Shropshire.

[[Red Cross]] chapters, which began appearing after the establishment of the [[International Committee of the Red Cross]] in 1863, offered employment and professionalization opportunities for nurses (despite Nightingale's initial objections).<ref>{{cite book |last1=Dromi |first1=Shai M. |title=Above the fray: the Red Cross and the making of the humanitarian NGO sector |date=2020 |publisher=University of Chicago Press |location=Chicago |isbn=978-0-226-68024-8 |pages=93–101 |url=https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/A/bo46479924.html |access-date=27 June 2021}}</ref> Catholic orders such as [[Little Sisters of the Poor]], [[Sisters of Mercy]], [[Sisters of St. Mary]], [[Franciscan Alliance, Inc.|St. Francis Health Services, Inc.]] and [[Sisters of Charity]] built hospitals and provided nursing services during this period.{{citation needed|date=November 2014}}<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Paradis, Raphael|first=Mary|date=10 March 2017|title=The Sisters of Mercy in the Crimean War: Lessons for Catholic health care|journal=The Linacre Quarterly|volume=84|issue=1|pages=29–43|doi=10.1080/00243639.2016.1277877|pmid=28392597|pmc=5375655|via=NCBI}}</ref> The modern [[deaconess]] movement began in Germany in 1836.<ref name="NAUMANN2008">{{cite book|last1=Naumann|first1=CD|title=In the footsteps of Phoebe: a Complete History of the Deaconess Movement in the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod|date=2008|publisher=Concordia Pub.

In the 19th and early 20th century, nursing was considered a woman's profession, just as doctoring was a profession for men. With increasing expectations of workplace equality during the late 20th century, nursing became an officially [[Gender marking in job titles|gender-neutral]] profession, though in practice the percentage of male nurses remained well below that of female [[physician]]s in the 21st century.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Total Number of Professionally Active Nurses, by Gender |url=http://kff.org/other/state-indicator/total-number-of-professionally-active-nurses-by-gender/#table |access-date=19 January 2016 |website=kff.org |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Distribution of Physicians by Gender |url=http://kff.org/other/state-indicator/physicians-by-gender/ |access-date=19 January 2016 |website=kff.org |language=en-US}}</ref>

Hospital-based training became standard in the US in the early 1900s, with an emphasis on practical experience. The Nightingale-style school began to disappear. Hospitals and physicians saw women in nursing as a source of free/inexpensive labor. Exploitation of nurses was not uncommon by employers, physicians, and education providers.<ref name="CHIN2008">{{cite book|last1=Chin|first1=PL|last2=Kramer|first2=MK|title=Integrated Theory and Knowledge Development in Nursing|date=2008|publisher=Mosby Elsevier|location=St. Louis|isbn=978-0-323-05270-2|pages=[https://archive.org/details/integratedtheory0000chin/page/33 33–34]|edition=7th|url=https://archive.org/details/integratedtheory0000chin/page/33}}</ref>

The development of undergraduate and post-graduate [[Nurse education|nursing degrees]] came after the war. Nursing research and a desire for association and organization led to the formation of [[professional organizations]] and [[nursing journal|academic journals]]. Nursing became recognized as a distinct academic discipline, initially tasked to define the [[Nursing theory|theoretical basis]] for practice.<ref name="ALLIGOOD2013">{{cite book|last1=Alligood|first1=MR|editor1-last=Alligood|editor1-first=MR|editor2-last=Tomey|editor2-first=AM|title=Nursing Theorists and their Work|date=2013|publisher=Mosby/Elsevier|location=Maryland Heights, MO|isbn=978-0-323-05641-0|pages=5–6|edition=7th|chapter=Introduction to nursing theory}}</ref>

==Definition==

According to the traditional interpretation physicians are concerned with curing or treating medical conditions, while nurses focus on care. In healthcare settings this line is often blurred, complicating the task of distinguishing the professions.{{sfn|Mulhall|1998|p=4–5}} Although nursing practice varies both through its various specialties and countries, nursing organizations offer the following definitions:

{{Blockquote | Nursing encompasses autonomous and collaborative care of individuals of all ages, families, groups and communities, sick or well, and in all settings. Nursing includes the promotion of health, prevention of illness, and the care of ill, disabled and dying people.

The practice of nursing is based upon a [[social contract]] that delineates professional rights and responsibilities as well as accountability mechanisms. In almost all countries, nursing practice is defined and governed by law, and entrance to the profession is regulated at the national or state level.

The nursing community worldwide aims for professional nurses to ensure quality care, while maintaining their credentials, code of [[Nursing ethics|ethics]], standards, and competencies, and continuing their education.<ref name="ICN">[http://www.icn.ch/abouticn.htm International Council of Nurses] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100429141916/http://www.icn.ch/abouticn.htm |date=29 April 2010 }} Retrieved August 2007</ref> Multiple educational paths lead to becoming a professional nurse; these vary by jurisdiction; all involve extensive study of [[nursing theory]] and practice as well as training in clinical skills.

Nurses provide care based on the individual's physical, emotional, psychological, intellectual, social, and spiritual needs. The profession combines physical science, social science, nursing theory, and technology.

Nurses typically hold one or more formal credentials. Roles and responsibilities follow the level of education. For example, in the United States, [[Licensed Practical Nurse]]s (LPN) have less education than [[Registered Nurse]]s (RN) and accordingly, a narrower scope of practice.

== Theory and process ==

{{Main article|Nursing theory|Nursing process}}
Nursing practice is the actual provision of nursing care. In providing care, nurses implement a [[nursing care plan]] defined using the [[nursing process]]. This is based around a specific [[nursing theory]] that is selected based on the care setting and the population served. In providing nursing care, the nurse uses both nursing theory and best practice derived from [[nursing research]].<ref name=Weber2014>{{cite book | last = Weber | first = Janet | title = Nurses' handbook of health assessment | publisher = Wolters Kluwer/Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Health | location = Philadelphia | year = 2014 | isbn = 978-1-4511-4282-2 }}</ref> Many nursing theories are in use.<ref name=":3" /> Like other disciplines, the profession has developed multiple theories derived from reflecting varying philosophical beliefs and [[paradigm]]s or [[worldview]]s.

In general terms, the nursing process is the method used to [[Nursing assessment|assess]] and [[Nursing diagnosis|diagnose]] needs, plan outcomes and interventions, implement interventions, and evaluate outcomes. The nursing process as defined by the [[American Nurses Association]] comprises five steps: 1) evaluate, 2) implement, 3) plan, 4) diagnose, and 5) assess.<ref name=":3">{{Cite web |title=Nursing {{!}} The SAGE Encyclopedia of Economics and Society - Credo Reference |url=https://search.credoreference.com/content/entry/sageeas/nursing/0 |access-date=2022-02-18 |website=search.credoreference.com |language=en}}</ref>

== Healthcare staffing platforms ==
[[Digital health]] platforms connect nurses and nurse assistants with job openings in healthcare facilities such as skilled nursing homes, home health agencies, and hospitals. Platforms offer an app to facilitate communication and allow nurses to find work opportunities based on their preferences. Healthcare partners and facilities benefit from access to qualified nurses.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Han |first1=Xinxin |last2=Pittman |first2=Patricia |last3=Barnow |first3=Burt |date=2021-09-09 |title=Alternative Approaches to Ensuring Adequate Nurse Staffing |journal=Medical Care |volume=59 |issue=Suppl 5 |pages=S463–S470 |doi=10.1097/mlr.0000000000001614 |issn=0025-7079 |pmc=8428863 |pmid=34524244}}</ref> In 2017, the UK's National Health Service began trialing such a platform.<ref>{{Cite magazine |title=The NHS is going to trial a gig economy app for nurses |url=https://www.wired.co.uk/article/nhs-app-nurses-flexible-working-jeremy-hunt-gig-economy |access-date=2024-01-24 |magazine=Wired UK |language=en-GB |issn=1357-0978}}</ref>

== Nursing as a science ==
{{Main article|Nursing research}}

Florence Nightingale's [[Notes on Matters Affecting the Health, Efficiency and Hospital Administration of the British Army|seminal epidemiological study]] examining mortality among British soldiers during the [[Crimean War]] was published in 1858.{{sfn|Boswell|Cannon|2014|p=30–31}} With the exception of her works, nursing practice remained an oral tradition until the mid-20th century. The inaugural issue of ''[[Nursing Research]]'', the first scientific journal specialized in nursing, came in in 1952. During the 1960s, interest in attaining PhDs increased among nurses in the US, but nursing remained a fledgling area of research, with few journals until the 1970s.{{sfn|Watson|2021|loc=From Oral Tradition to Written Scholarship}} Nursing research is increasingly presented as a valid discipline, although lacking a prevailing definition.{{sfn|Manhart Barrett|2017|p=129}} The question is further complicated by the numerous interpretations of nursing's defining essence.{{sfn|Manhart Barrett|2002|p=51}}{{sfn|Mulhall|1998|p=4}}

=== Evidence-based practice ===
{{Main article|Evidence-based nursing|Evidence-based medicine}}

During the 1980s there was an increased focus on [[research utilization]] (RU). Nursing research took an interest in clinical issues and US nursing schools began teaching research methods to facilitate interpretation and integration of scientific findings in routine practice. Several RU initiatives were active during the late 20th century, but the RU movement was superseded by evidence-based practice in the 1990s.{{sfn|Polit|Tatano Beck|2014|p=21}} Evidence-based practice (EBP) is about using research, but unlike RU it allows for the integration of research findings with clinical expertise and patient preferences.{{sfn|Polit|Tatano Beck|2014|p=20–21}} The EBP movement had originated in the field of [[medicine]] with [[Archie Cochrane]] publishing ''Effectiveness and Efficiency'' in 1972, leading up to the founding of the [[Cochrane Collaboration]] in 1993.{{sfn|Nieswiadomy|2012|p=278–279}} The emerging area of evidence-based medicine also applies to nursing.{{sfn|Boswell|Cannon|2014|pp=3–4}} Common barriers to the study and integration of research findings into clinical decision making include: a lack of opportunity, inexperience, and the rapid pace of evidence accumulation.{{sfn|Mulhall|1998|p=4}}{{sfn|Nieswiadomy|2012|p=268–270}}

==Scope of practice ==
Nurses perform a variety of different tasks. Their activities vary based on their level of training and their specialty. For example, [[Perioperative nursing|operating room nurses]] work in surgical settings and perform tasks that other nurses do not.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.aorn.org/career-center|title=AORN Career Center - Career Advice Consider a Career in the OR |publisher=Association of periOperative Registered Nurses |language=en|access-date=2019-05-29}}</ref> Nurses may receive additional training and certifications to perform a variety of tasks. For example, in the United States, RN first assists (RNFAs) perform basic surgical procedures.<ref>{{cite web |title=RN First Assist Resources |url=https://www.aorn.org/guidelines-resources/clinical-resources/rn-first-assistant-resources |website=AORN |publisher=[[Association of periOperative Registered Nurses]]}}</ref>

===Assessment===
{{Main|Nursing assessment}}
Assessment is an essential nursing skill. Nurses assess patients' physical and mental health. In hospital settings, nurses regularly perform assessments to notice any acute changes in their patients. Nurses also assess a patient's response to medication or other treatments, such as physical activity and blood transfusions. Nurses may also take health histories. Nurses also must assess a patient's understanding of their health status and their medications. Critical thinking is an important skill for nurses to have: in emergency situations, nurses must quickly assess a patient and determine the best course of action.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Toney-Butler |first1=Tammy J. |last2=Unison-Pace |first2=Wendy J. |title=Nursing Admission Assessment and Examination |url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK493211/ |website=StatPearls |date=2025 |location=National Library of Medicine|pmid=29630263 }}</ref>

===Medication===
[[Medication therapy management|Medication management]] and administration are common hospital nursing roles, although prescribing authority varies across jurisdictions. In many areas, RNs administer and manage medications prescribed by others. Nurses are responsible for evaluating patients throughout their care – including before and after medication administration – adjustments to medications are often made through a collaborative effort between the prescriber and the nurse. Regardless of the prescriber, nurses are legally responsible for the drugs they administer. Legal implications may accompany an error in a prescription, and the nurse may be expected to note and report the error. In the United States, nurses have the right to refuse to administer medication that they deem to be potentially harmful.<ref>Taylor, C. R., Lillis, C., LeMone, P., Lynn, P. (2011) Fundamentals of nursing: The art and science of nursing care. Philadelphia: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, page 735-736.</ref> Some nurses take additional training that allows them to prescribe medications within their scope of practice.<ref name="rcn">{{cite web|url=https://www.rcn.org.uk/about-us/policy-briefings/pol-1512#tab1|title=RCN factsheet on nurse prescribing in the UK|website=rcn.org.uk|access-date=20 July 2019|archive-date=4 May 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200504140113/https://www.rcn.org.uk/about-us/policy-briefings/pol-1512#tab1}}</ref>

===Patient education===
{{See also|Patient education}}
Effective patient/family education leads to better outcomes. Nurses explain procedures, recovery, and ongoing care, while helping everyone cope with the medical situation.<ref name=":4">{{Cite news |title=nursing {{!}} History, Education, & Practices {{!}} Britannica |url=https://www.britannica.com/science/nursing |access-date=2022-03-07 |newspaper=Encyclopedia Britannica |language=en}}</ref>

Many times, nurses are busy, leaving little time to educate patients.<ref name=":6" />

Patients' families needs similar education.<ref name=":6">Taylor, C. R., Lillis, C., LeMone, P., Lynn, P. (2011) Fundamentals of nursing: The art and science of nursing care. Philadelphia: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, page 468.</ref> Educating both patients and their families increases the chance for a better outcome.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Smith |first1=Jackie A. |last2=Zsohar |first2=Helen |date=October 2013 |title=Patient-education tips for new nurses |journal=Nursing |language=en-US |volume=43 |issue=10 |pages=1–3 |doi=10.1097/01.NURSE.0000434224.51627.8a |pmid=24045809 |issn=0360-4039|doi-access=free }}</ref>

Nurses have to communicate in a way that can be understood by patients. Education techniques encompass conversations, visuals, reading materials, and demonstrations.<ref name=":4" />

===Daily living assistance===
{{main article|Activities of daily living}}
Nurses manage and coordinate care to support activities of daily living (ADL) such as hygiene and toileting. This includes assisting in patient mobility, such as moving an activity intolerant patient within a bed. They often delegate such care to [[nursing assistant]]s.

==Specialties ==
{{Main article|List of nursing specialties}}

Nursing is the most diverse of all [[:category:health care occupations|health care professions]]. Nurses practice in a wide range of settings, but generally follows the needs of their patients.

The major specialties are:
*[[Community nursing|communities]]/[[Public health nursing|public health]]
*family/individual care
*adult-[[Gerontological nursing|gerontology]]
*[[Pediatric nursing|pediatrics]]
*[[obstetrical nursing|obstetrics]]
*[[Neonatal nursing|neonatal]]
*women's health/gender-related
*[[Mental health nursing|mental health]]
*[[Health informatics|informatics]] ([[eHealth]])
*acute care
*[[Ambulatory care nursing|ambulatory settings]] (physician offices, urgent care settings, camps, etc.)
*[[School nursing|school]]/college/institutional infirmaries
*[[Military nurse|military]]

*[[palliative care]]
*[[perioperative nursing|perioperative]]
*[[oncology nursing|oncology]]
*[[telenursing]]
*[[radiology]]
*[[emergency nursing|emergency care]]

Nurses with additional degrees allow for specialization. Nursing professions can be separated into categories by care type, age, gender, certain age group, practice setting, individually or in combination.<ref name=":5">{{Cite web |title=Nursing {{!}} The SAGE Encyclopedia of Economics and Society - Credo Reference |url=https://search.credoreference.com/content/entry/sageeas/nursing/0 |access-date=2022-03-31 |website=search.credoreference.com |language=en}}</ref>

== Settings ==
Nurses practice in a wide range of settings, including hospitals, private [[home care|homes]], [[school nursing|schools]], and [[pharmaceutical companies]]. Nurses work in [[Occupational health nursing|occupational health]] settings<ref>{{cite journal |author1=Draper Elaine |author2=LaDou Joseph |author3=Tennenhouse Dan J | year = 2011 | title = Occupational Health Nursing and the Quest for Professional Authority | journal = New Solutions | volume = 21 | issue = 1| pages = 57–88 | doi=10.2190/ns.21.1.i|pmid=21411426 |bibcode=2011NewSo..21...57D |s2cid=207317324 }}</ref> (also called industrial health settings), free-standing clinics, physician offices, [[nurse-led clinics]], [[long-term care]] facilities and camps. They work on [[cruise ships]], [[Armed Forces|military bases]], and in combat settings.

Nurses act as advisers and consultants to the health care and insurance industries. Many nurses also work in [[health advocacy]] and [[patient advocacy]], helping in clinical and administrative domains.<ref>Schneider, John. "Healthcare advocacy experts aid workers." Miami Herald 31 August 2010</ref> Some are [[lawyer|attorneys]] and others work with attorneys as [[legal nurse consultant]]s, reviewing patient records to assure that adequate care was provided and testifying in court.

Nurses can work on a temporary basis, which involves doing shifts without a contract in a variety of settings, sometimes known as ''per diem nursing'', ''agency nursing'' or ''travel nursing''. Nurses work as researchers in laboratories, universities, and [[research institutions]]. Nurses work in informatics, acting as consultants to the creation of computerized charting programs and other software. Nurse authors publish articles and books to provide essential reference materials.

==Occupational hazards==
[[File:Sleep Deprivation – Shift Work & Long Work Hours Put Nurses at Risk.webm|thumb|A video describing occupational hazards that exist among nurses]]
The international nursing shortage<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Buchanan |first1=J. |title=Global nursing shortages |journal= BMJ|volume=324 |issue=7340 |pages=751–2 |year=2002 |pmid=11923146 |pmc=1122695 |doi=10.1136/bmj.324.7340.751}}</ref> is in part due to their work environment. In a recent review of the literature specific to nursing performance, nurses were found to work in generally poor environmental conditions. Some jurisdictions have legislation specifying acceptable nurse-to-patient ratios.

The fast-paced and unpredictable nature of health care places nurses at risk for injuries and illnesses, including high [[occupational stress]]. Nurses consistently identify stress as a major work-related concern and have among the highest levels of occupational stress among all professions. This stress is caused by the environment, psychosocial stressors, and the demands of nursing, including mastering new technology, emotional labor, physical labor, [[shift work]], and high workload. This stress puts nurses at risk for short-term and long-term health problems, including [[sleep disorders]], [[major depressive disorder|depression]], [[Death|mortality]], psychiatric disorders, stress-related illnesses, and overall poor health. Nurses are at risk of developing [[compassion fatigue]] and moral [[distress (medicine)|distress]], which can damage mental health. They have high rates of [[occupational burnout]] (40%) and [[emotional exhaustion]] (43.2%). Burnout and exhaustion increase the risk for illness, medical error, and suboptimal care provision.<ref name=":0">{{Cite news|url = http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/765974|title = Alleviating Job Stress in Nurses|date = 25 June 2012|newspaper = Medscape|publisher = Medscape and NIOSH|last1 = Roberts|first1 = Rashaun|last2 = Grubb|first2 = Paula L.|last3 = Grosch|first3 = James W.}}</ref>

=== Patient handling ===
Healthcare has consistently ranked among the industries with the highest rates of musculoskeletal injuries, largely related to patient handling. Anywhere from 30 to 70% of reported musculoskeletal injuries are related to patient handling. Nurses are routinely tasked with lifting, repositioning, and mobilizing patients. According to the [[National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health|National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)]] the single greatest factor in overexertion injuries is the manual lifting, moving and repositioning of patients.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-17 |title=Safe Patient Handling and Mobility {{!}} NIOSH |url=https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/safepatient/default.html |access-date=2024-04-16 |website=www.cdc.gov |language=en-us}}</ref> These tasks present unique ergonomic hazards that result in a high rate of acute and cumulative musculoskeletal injuries.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Morse |first1=Tim |last2=Fekieta |first2=Renee |last3=Rubenstein |first3=Harriet |last4=Warren |first4=Nick |last5=Alexander |first5=Darryl |last6=Wawzyniecki |first6=Patricia |date=2008-05-29 |title="Doing the Heavy Lifting: Health Care Workers Take Back Their Backs" |journal=NEW SOLUTIONS: A Journal of Environmental and Occupational Health Policy |language=en |volume=18 |issue=2 |pages=207–219 |doi=10.2190/ns.18.2.j |pmid=18511397 |bibcode=2008NewSo..18..207M |issn=1048-2911}}</ref><ref name=":12">{{Cite journal |last1=Aslam |first1=Imran |last2=Davis |first2=Scott A. |last3=Feldman |first3=Steven R. |last4=Martin |first4=Willis E. |date=June 2015 |title=A Review of Patient Lifting Interventions to Reduce Health Care Worker Injuries |journal=Workplace Health & Safety |language=en |volume=63 |issue=6 |pages=267–275 |doi=10.1177/2165079915580038 |pmid=26135600 |issn=2165-0799}}</ref>

The most frequently injured body part is the back, with up to 72% of nurses reporting non-specific [[low back pain]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Unsafe patient handling |url=https://www.who.int/tools/occupational-hazards-in-health-sector/unsafe-patient-handling |access-date=2024-02-22 |website=www.who.int |language=en}}</ref> The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that for 2021-2022 the rate of overexertion injuries leading to days away from work for nurses was 45.4 per 10,000 full time employees, while nursing aids came in at 145.5 compared to the average for all industries of 26.1.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses Data: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics |url=https://www.bls.gov/iif/nonfatal-injuries-and-illnesses-tables.htm |access-date=2024-03-26 |website=www.bls.gov |language=en-us}}</ref>

=== Workplace violence ===
Nurses are at risk for workplace violence and abuse.<ref>{{cite web |url = https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/blogs/2013/violence-prevention-training.html |title = Free On-line Violence Prevention Training for Nurses |date = 12 August 2013 |first1 = Dan |last1 = Hartley |first2 = Marilyn |last2 = Ridenour |access-date = 15 January 2015 |publisher = National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health}}</ref> Violence is typically perpetrated by non-staff (e.g. patients or family), whereas abuse is typically perpetrated by hospital personnel. In the US in 2011, 57% of nurses reported that they had been threatened at work; 17% were physically assaulted.<ref name=":0" />

The three types of workplace violence that nurses can experience are: physical violence (hitting, kicking, beating, punching, biting, and using objects);<ref>{{Citation|title=Gender Matters: Discourses of Violence in Early Modern Literature and the Arts|date=2014-01-01|work=Gender Matters|pages=5–15|publisher=BRILL|doi=10.1163/9789401210232_002|isbn=978-94-012-1023-2 |last1=Wade |first1=Mara R. }}</ref> psychological violence (threats or coercion); sexual violence (attempted/completed non-consensual sex act).<ref>{{Cite web|date=September 2021|title=Sexual Harassment in the Workplace|url=https://www.workplacesrespond.org/harassment-facts/ |website=Work Places Respond}}</ref>

Workplace violence can be viewed in another way: interpersonal violence and organizational coercion. Interpersonal violence is committed by workers or patients and their families. Its predominant form is verbal abuse. Organizational coercion may include excessive workloads, mandatory shifts, involuntary placement in another part of the workplace, low salaries, denial of benefits/overtime, poor working environment, and other stressors.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Faghihi|first1=Mitra|last2=Farshad|first2=Aliasghar|last3=Abhari|first3=Maryam Biglari|last4=Azadi|first4=Nammamali|last5=Mansourian|first5=Morteza|date=2021-05-19|title=The components of workplace violence against nurses from the perspective of women working in a hospital in Tehran: a qualitative study|journal=BMC Women's Health|volume=21|issue=1|page=209|doi=10.1186/s12905-021-01342-0|pmid=34011330|issn=1472-6874|pmc=8136170 |doi-access=free }}</ref> These issues affect [[quality of life]]. Managers who lack understanding of the severity of these problems and do not support workers increase worker stress.

Many factors contribute to workplace violence. These factors can be divided into environmental, organizational, and individual psychosocial. The environmental factors can include the specific setting (for example the emergency department), long patient wait times, frequent interruptions, uncertainty regarding patients' treatment, and heavy workloads.<ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last1=Zhang|first1=Liuyi|last2=Wang|first2=Anni|last3=Xie|first3=Xia|last4=Zhou|first4=Yanhong|last5=Li|first5=Jing|last6=Yang|first6=Lijun|last7=Zhang|first7=Jingping|date=July 2017|title=Workplace violence against nurses: A cross-sectional study|journal=International Journal of Nursing Studies|volume=72|pages=8–14|doi=10.1016/j.ijnurstu.2017.04.002|pmid=28412581|issn=0020-7489}}</ref> Organizational factors can include inefficient teamwork, organizational injustice, lack of aggression- and stress-management programs, and distrust between colleagues.<ref name=":1" /> Individual psychosocial factors may include nurses being young and inexperienced, previous experiences with violence, and a lack of communication skills.<ref name=":1" /> Misunderstandings may also occur due to the communication barrier between nurses and patients.<ref name=":2">{{Cite journal|last1=Alkorashy|first1=Hanan A.

Workplace violence has many causes. The most common perpetrators of harassment or bullying of nursing students were registered nurses including preceptors, mentors, and clinical facilitators.<ref name=":2" /> However, the main perpetrators of workplace violence against nurses were patients. 80% of serious violent incidents in health care centers were committed by patients.

Workplace violence has many effects. It has negative emotional and physical impacts on nurses. They feel depersonalized, dehumanized, worn out, and stressed out.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Vrablik|first1=Marie C|last2=Chipman|first2=Anne K|last3=Rosenman|first3=Elizabeth D|last4=Simcox|first4=Nancy J|last5=Huynh|first5=Ly|last6=Moore|first6=Megan|last7=Fernandez|first7=Rosemarie|date=August 2019|title=Identification of processes that mediate the impact of workplace violence on emergency department healthcare workers in the USA: results from a qualitative study|journal=BMJ Open|volume=9|issue=8|article-number=e031781|doi=10.1136/bmjopen-2019-031781|doi-access=free|pmid=31462490|issn=2044-6055|pmc=6720251}}</ref> Nurses have reported burn-out due to frequent exposure to this violence.

=== Interventions ===
Interventions can mitigate these occupational hazards. They can be individual-focused or organization-focused. Individual-focused interventions include [[stress management]] programs, which can be customized to individuals. Stress management programs can reduce anxiety, sleep disorders, and other symptoms of stress. Organizational interventions focus on reducing stressful aspects of the work environment by identifying stress generators and developing solutions to them. Combining organizational and individual interventions is most effective at reducing stress.<ref name=":0" /> In some Japanese hospitals, [[Powered exoskeleton#Medical|powered exoskeletons]] are used to reduce physical loads.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Gilhooly|first1=Rob|title=Exoskeletons await in work/care closet|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2012/06/17/general/exoskeletons-await-in-workcare-closet/|access-date=21 August 2013|work=The Japan Times|date=17 June 2012}}</ref> Lumbar supports (i.e. [[back belt]]s) have been trialed.<ref>{{cite journal | pmc=2078392 | year=2007 | last1=Dawson | first1=A.

{{Unreferenced section|date=May 2024}}
Nurses in [[Israel]] has responsibilities including hospital care, patient education, wound care, prenatal and other monitoring, midwifery, and well-baby clinics.

Nurses and midwives are regulated by the [[Israeli Ministry of Health]].

Nursing in Israeli Jewish culture traces its origins to [[Shiphrah and Puah|Shifra and Puah]], two [[Hebrews|Hebrew]] midwives depicted in the [[Book of Exodus]] helping women in ancient Egypt give birth and keep their infants safe.

Modern-day nursing was established by nurses sent to [[Mandatory Palestine]] and later Israel by the [[Hadassah Women's Zionist Organization of America|Hadassah]] organization, as well as at a nursing school founded by [[Henrietta Szold]] in 1918. The United Kingdom regulated midwifery in Mandatory Palestine, but nurses were not mentioned in the regulation decree.

{{Short description|none}}

{{Use Indian English|date=July 2024}}
{{Use dmy dates|date=June 2019}}

The climate of [[Uttar Pradesh]] is a tropical monsoon climate, consisting mainly of a [[humid subtropical climate|humid subtropical]] climate with dry winter (''Cwa''). Parts of western Uttar Pradesh consist of a [[semi-arid climate#Hot semi-arid climates|hot semi-arid climate]] (''BSh''). The uniformity of the vast [[Indo-Gangetic Plain]] covering most of the state causes it to have a predominantly single climate pattern with minor regional variations.

With temperatures fluctuating from {{convert|0|°C|disp=or}} to {{convert|50|°C|disp=or}} in several parts of the state and unpredictable rains, the summers are extremely hot, the winters are cold, and the rainy season can be either very wet or very dry.

==Classification==
[[File:Koppen-Geiger Map IND present.svg|thumb|right|alt=A Köppen climate classification map of India. Uttar Pradesh is marked predominantly humid subtropical with dry winter (Cwa) with its western portions marked semi-arid hot (BSh).|[[Köppen climate classification]] map of India]]
The climate of Uttar Pradesh is generally defined to be tropical monsoon.<ref name=EB>{{cite web|last=Mathur|first=Raj B.|title=Uttar Pradesh: Climate|url=http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/620898/Uttar-Pradesh/46085/Climate|publisher=Encyclopædia Britannica|accessdate=9 March 2011}}</ref> However, based on the [[Köppen climate classification]], it can be classified mostly as humid subtropical with dry winter (''Cwa'') type with parts of western Uttar Pradesh as semi-arid hot (BSh).

Given significant climate differences, Uttar Pradesh has been divided into two meteorological sub-divisions, East Uttar Pradesh and West Uttar Pradesh.<ref name=DM/>

==Seasons==
According to the Indian Meteorological Department, Uttar Pradesh has three predominant seasons.<ref name=season>{{cite web|title=Home » Uttar Pradesh Profile » Geography » Climate|url=http://www.uponline.in/Profile/geography/climate.asp|publisher=UPonline|accessdate=9 March 2011|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110721181639/http://www.uponline.in/Profile/geography/climate.asp|archivedate=21 July 2011}}</ref><ref name="Board2008">{{cite book|author=Upkar Prakashan – Editorial Board|title=Uttar Pradesh General Knowledge|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_ce8FpJzR-4C&pg=PA26|accessdate=9 March 2011|year=2008|publisher=Upkar Prakashan|isbn=978-81-7482-408-0|pages=26–}}</ref>

The retreating monsoon season, although present generally in India, has a very negligible effect in Uttar Pradesh and only occasional mild showers are experienced in winter. Additionally, some of these showers are due to western disturbances, not the monsoon.<ref name=WesDist/>

===Summer===
Summer lasts from March to May. It is hot and dry, and temperatures rise to {{convert|45|°C|disp=or}}, sometimes {{convert|47|or|48|°C|1|disp=or}}. The relative humidity is low, at around 20 per cent, and the winds are laden with dust.

===Monsoon===
The monsoon season lasts from June to October. It accounts for 85 per cent of the average annual rainfall. During rainy days, the temperature falls.

===Winter===
Winter lasts from November to February. Morning temperatures drop to {{convert|3-4|°C|1|disp=or}}, and sometimes drop below {{convert|−1|°C|1|disp=or}}. The skies are clear, and some regions experience foggy conditions.

==Geography==
Uttar Pradesh is in the heart of the [[Indo-Gangetic Plain]] with the [[Ganges]] river flowing right through the state, the [[Himalayas]] to the north, and the [[Chota Nagpur Plateau]] and the [[Vindhya Range]] to the south of the state.

==Temperature==
Temperature varies from {{convert|0|to|46|°C|1}}.<ref name="Board2008"/> High temperatures of around {{convert|50|°C|disp=or}} have been recorded in [[Gonda district]].<ref name=EB/>
Such a wide range of temperature fluctuations in most parts of the state can lead to either cold waves or heat waves both resulting in substantial loss of life and economy.

===Heat waves===
In 2007, a heat wave struck Uttar Pradesh, with [[Banda district, India|Banda district]] with {{convert|45.5|°C|1|disp=or}} the hottest in the state for several days.<ref>{{cite news|title=9 more succumb to heatwave in UP, rain claims 5 lives in south|url=https://www.oneindia.com/2007/06/08/9-more-succumb-to-heatwave-in-up-rain-claims-5-lives-in-south-1181531156.html|access-date=10 March 2011|newspaper=OneIndiaNews.in|date=11 June 2007}}</ref> At least 62 people were reportedly dead during the heat wave that year.<ref>{{cite news|title=46 more perish in heat spell; toll crosses 100|url=http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/000200706112201.htm|accessdate=10 March 2011|newspaper=The Hindu|date=11 June 2007}}</ref>

===Cold waves===
In recent years, the 2007–2008 winter caused a string of cold-related deaths<ref name=CW1>{{cite news|last=IANS|title=Uttar Pradesh cold wave toll rises to 38|url=http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report_uttar-pradesh-cold-wave-toll-rises-to-38_1142961|accessdate=9 March 2011|newspaper=DNA|date=3 January 2008}}</ref> with temperatures as low as {{convert|2.8|°C|disp=or}} in the city of [[Meerut]].

On 13 January 2013, [[Kanpur]] recorded its all-time low temperature when the temperature plunged to {{convert|−1.1|C|F|1|disp=or}} and on the same day, [[Agra]] recorded {{convert|−0.7|C|F|1|disp=or}}.

In January, in [[Lucknow]], the temperature can plunge below freezing; Lucknow recorded {{convert|0.0|°C|disp=or}} on 18 January 2017. Agra and [[Muzaffarnagar]] are also notorious for chilly winds and the temperature there can also go below freezing.

==Precipitation==
It rains over most of Uttar Pradesh, with very few arid or semi-arid patches. Snowfall does not occur, but hailstorms, frost, and dew often do. The type of rainfall that Uttar Pradesh receives is [[orographic]], [[cyclonic]], and [[Convection rain|convectional]].<ref name="Board2008"/>

===Rain===
Primarily a summer phenomenon, the Bay of Bengal branch of the [[Monsoon of India|Indian Monsoon]] is the major bearer of rain in most parts of Uttar Pradesh. It is the south-west monsoon which brings most of the rain, although rain due to ''[[western disturbances]]''<ref name=WesDist>{{cite news|last=Sethi|first=Nitin|title=Met dept blames it on 'western disturbance'|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Met-dept-blames-it-on-western-disturbance/articleshow/1600979.cms|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110811031649/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2007-02-13/india/27887812_1_met-dept-disturbance-rains|url-status=live|archive-date=11 August 2011|access-date=9 March 2011|newspaper=[[The Times of India]]|date=13 February 2007}}</ref> and the north-east monsoon also contribute small quantities towards the overall rain in the state.<ref name="Board2008"/>
The rain can vary from an annual average of 170{{nbsp}}cm in hilly areas to less than 80{{nbsp}}cm in the west.<ref name="Board2008"/> Given that most of this rainfall is concentrated in the four months of the monsoon season, excess rain can lead to floods and a shortage to droughts.<ref name=EB/> As such, floods and droughts are a common occurrence.

===Floods===
Floods are a known hazard of Uttar Pradesh due to overflowing of its main rivers like [[Ganges]], [[Yamuna]], [[Ramganga]], [[Gomti]], [[Sharda River|Sharda]], [[Ghaghra]], Rapti, and [[Gandak]].<ref name=DM>{{cite web|title=Disaster Management Department, Govt of U.P.|url=http://rahat.up.nic.in/disaster_management.htm|work=rahat.up.nic.in|accessdate=9 March 2011|archive-date=12 March 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110312023623/http://rahat.up.nic.in/disaster_management.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref> The estimated annual loss due to floods is {{INRConvert|4.32|b}}.<ref name=DM/> Major flood management efforts have been undertaken to mitigate the risk. Most of these floods occur due to the [[Monsoon of India|monsoon]] rains and the resulting overflow of rivers. One such year occurred in 2010.<ref name=Flood1>{{cite news|title=Floods play havoc in Bihar & Uttar Pradesh|url=http://www.samachartoday.com/floods-play-havoc-in-bihar-uttar-pradesh/10174|accessdate=9 March 2011|newspaper=Samachar today|date=28 August 2010|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110715234027/http://www.samachartoday.com/floods-play-havoc-in-bihar-uttar-pradesh/10174|archivedate=15 July 2011}}</ref><ref name=Flood2>{{cite news|title=Nine die in Uttar Pradesh India floods: Toll 429|url=http://chimalaya.org/2010/10/02/nine-die-in-up-floods-toll-429/|accessdate=9 March 2011|newspaper=Climate Himalaya Initiative-NEWS|date=2 October 2010|archive-date=25 July 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110725163949/http://chimalaya.org/2010/10/02/nine-die-in-up-floods-toll-429/|url-status=usurped}}</ref>

===Droughts===
Shortages of rain during the highly variable monsoon season can cause droughts, leading to deaths and property loss. Recent 2002 and 2004 drought-related loss estimates have been reported to be {{INRConvert|75.4|b}} and {{INRConvert|72.92|b}}, respectively.<ref name=DM/>

The recurrence of a major deficiency in annual rainfall follows a six to eight-year cycle in East Uttar Pradesh, whereas in West Uttar Pradesh, it is a ten-year cycle.

Mohanlal had acted in several [[Amateur theatre|amateur plays]] before entering into films.

The play depicts Karna's mental agony a day before the [[Kurukshetra War]], as he thinks about his past and his faith. Mohanlal said: "You cannot compare Kavalam's play with the amateur plays I did. Though there are other characters in the play, the theme revolves around Karna. It is almost like a solo performance. Some of the scenes are really touching and challenging".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rediff.com/entertai/2001/mar/13mohan.htm|title=Mohanlal's new obsession|work=[[Rediff.com]]|last=Jose|first=D.|date=13 March 2001|access-date=12 September 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170215005226/http://www.rediff.com/entertai/2001/mar/13mohan.htm|archive-date=15 February 2017|url-status=live}}</ref> He acted without payment, saying: "I performed for the joy of it ... for my love of our history".<ref name="rd"/>

During the 1980s, Mohanlal and [[Mammootty]] emerged as "superstars" in [[Malayalam cinema]], marking an unprecedented phenomenon in the industry. This led to a shift in the Malayalam film landscape, with [[Star vehicle|star-driven]] films becoming the norm, reminiscent of [[Bollywood]] and [[Tamil cinema|Tamil]] film cultures. As ''[[India Today]]'' noted in 1988, filmmakers tailored characters to suit these superstars. Director [[I. V. Sasi]] remarked that even [[Prem Nazir]] never had the popularity of Mohanlal and Mammootty, who possess "a rare and right mixture of charisma and acting ability". In 1988, filmmaker [[Fazil (director)|Fazil]] stated that, "Mohanlal is the most flexible and subtle actor in the country today. He can do what [[Dustin Hoffman]] did in ''[[Tootsie]]'' or [[Silvester Stallone]] did in ''[[Rambo (franchise)|Rambo]]'' with ease".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/society-the-arts/films/story/19881231-mammootty-and-mohan-lal-emerge-as-unprecedented-superstars-of-malayalam-films-798061-1988-12-31|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20190918142917/https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/society-the-arts/films/story/19881231-mammootty-and-mohan-lal-emerge-as-unprecedented-superstars-of-malayalam-films-798061-1988-12-31|archive-date = 18 September 2019|title = Mammootty and Mohan Lal emerge as unprecedented superstars of Malayalam films| date=31 December 1988 }}</ref>

'''Sone River''', also spelt '''Son River''', is a perennial river located in central India. It originates near [[Amarkantak|Amarkantak Hill]] in [[Pendra]] (Gaurela-Pendra-Marwahi district), [[Chhattisgarh]] and finally merges with the [[Ganga|Ganges]] river near [[Maner]] in [[Patna]], [[Bihar]]. The Sone River is the second-largest southern tributary of the Ganges after the [[Yamuna River]]. India's oldest river bridge [[Koilwar Bridge]] over the Sone River connects [[Arrah]] with [[Patna]]. Sone river is famous for its sand across country. Multiple dams and hydro-electric projects run on its course towards the Ganges.The river is also mentioned in Valmiki Ramayans's Balkand where Ram. Laxman along with Vishvamitra is crossing the river to further go north towards Ganga.

Sone River is called 'सोन / सोने' in Hindi, but called 'शोण' in Sanskrit, a rare instance of an Indian river having masculine name. Damodara and Brahmaputra also have masculine name. This river is mentioned as SoNai in [[Sangam literature|Sangam Tamil literature]] [[Kuṟuntokai]] as early as 2nd century CE.<ref>[https://www.tamilvu.org/slet/l1200/l1200uri.jsp?book_id=22&song_no=75 Kurunthogai Verse 75 - Sangam Tamil Literature]</ref> The Sone originates near [[Pendra]] in [[Chhattisgarh]], just east of the headwater of the [[Narmada River]], and flows north-northwest through [[Shahdol district]] in [[Madhya Pradesh]] state before turning sharply eastward where it encounters the southwest-northeast-[[Kaimur Range]]. The Sone parallels the Kaimur hills, flowing east-northeast through [[Uttar Pradesh]], [[Jharkhand]] and [[Bihar]] states to join the Ganges just west of [[Patna]]. Geologically, the lower valley of the Son is an extension of the [[Narmada Valley]], and the [[Kaimur Range]] an extension of the [[Vindhya Range]]. [[Arwal]], [[Daudnagar]], [[Deori, Shahdol|Deori]], [[Rohtasgarh]], [[Dehri]], [[Sonbhadra]] and [[Maner, Bihar|Maner]] are some of the major cities situated on Sone River.

The Sone river which is {{convert|784|km|mi}} long, is one of the longest Indian rivers.<ref name="volume 23">{{cite book| title=Imperial gazetteer of India, Volume 23| author=Sir William Wilson Hunter| url=https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V23_082.gif| access-date=2014-06-06| pages=76–78| url-status=live| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714165858/http://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V23_082.gif| archive-date=14 July 2014| df=dmy-all}}</ref> Its chief tributaries are the [[Rihand River|Rihand]], [[Kanhar River|Kanhar]] and the [[North Koel River|North Koel]]. The Son has a steep [[gradient]] (35–55 cm per km) with quick [[Surface runoff|run-off]] and [[ephemeral]] regimes, becoming a roaring river with the rain-waters in the [[drainage basin|catchment]] area but turning quickly into a fordable stream. The Son, being wide and shallow, leaves disconnected pools of water in the remaining parts of the year. The channel of the Son is very wide (about 5 km at [[Dehri]]) but the [[floodplain]] is narrow, only {{convert|3|to|5|km|mi|0}} wide. The meeting point with [[North Koel River|North Koel]] the width of Sone River is {{convert|5|to|8|km|mi|0}}. In the past, the Son has been notorious for changing course. As it is traceable from several old beds near its east bank, the river changed its course more than 5 times. In modern times this tendency has been checked with the [[anicut]] at Dehri, and now more so with the [[Indrapuri Barrage]].

In Bihar, this river forms the border line between the [[Bhojpuri language|Bhojpuri]]- and [[Magahi]]-speaking regions.

[[John Wardle Houlton|Sir John Houlton]], the British administrator, described the Son as follows, "After passing the steep escarpments of the [[Kaimur hills|Kaimur range]], it flows straight across the plain to the Ganges. For much of this distance it is over two miles wide, and at one point, opposite Tilothu three miles wide. In the dry weather there is a vast expanse of sand, with a stream not more than a hundred yards wide, and the hot west winds pile up the sand on the east bank, making natural embankments. After heavy rain in the hills even this wide bed cannot carry the waters of the Son and disastrous floods in Shahabad, Gaya, and Patna are not uncommon."<ref name=houlton>Houlton, Sir John, Bihar, the Heart of India, pp. 47–48, Orient Longmans, 1949.</ref>

==Dams==
The first dam on the Son was built in 1873–74 at Dehri.

The [[Indrapuri Barrage]] was constructed, {{convert|8|km|mi|0}} upstream, and commissioned in 1968.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://oibsv2.iwmi.org/guidelines/India-Bihar_Upadhyaya.pdf | title = Performance Evaluation of Patna Main Canal | publisher = ICAR Research Complex for Eastern Region | access-date = 2011-07-08 | url-status = live | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120326060509/http://oibsv2.iwmi.org/guidelines/India-Bihar_Upadhyaya.pdf | archive-date = 26 March 2012 | df = dmy-all }}</ref>

It stars [[Harshvardhan Rane]], [[Avantika Mishra]], [[Sushma Raj]] and [[Nandini Rai]] in leading roles, with Anita Chowdary, [[Naga Babu]], Venu and Jhansi featuring in pivotal roles. The film is based on ESP (Extra Sensory Perception).<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/telugu/movie-reviews/maya/movie-review/39434563.cms|title=Maya Movie Review {3/5}: Critic Review of Maya by Times of India|newspaper=The Times of India }}</ref><ref>https://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/review-of-maaya/article6272059.ece</ref>

The film was initially to be adapted in Hindi as ''Murder 4'', a sequel to the classic erotic thriller series ''[[Murder (film series)|Murder]]''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/bollywood/mahesh-bhatt-to-remake-telugu-maaya-as-hindi-murder-4/story-cryhKVjecjMhENg5IcBlxO.html|title=Mahesh Bhatt to remake Telugu Maaya as Hindi Murder 4|date=3 October 2014|website=Hindustan Times}}</ref>

==Plot==
Meghana has a rare gift of extrasensory perception. At the age of 6, she has visions about her mother's death. However she is unable to save her. 15 years later, she is a journalist and lives with her father.

On a special assignment, she meets a known fashion designer, Siddharth Varma (Harshvardhan Rane). She likes his good nature and slowly begins to fall in love with him. Meanwhile she has a vision about the death of a security guard. She manages to save the guard's life with Siddharth's help. Then she tells her father about her visions. He consoles her and learns about her feelings for Siddharth. The next day, she meets her childhood friend Puja and learns that she and Siddharth are engaged. She feels that Siddharth intentionally hurt her feelings. Afterwards she has a vision of Siddharth slitting Puja's neck.

She tells this to her father and they consult a parapsychology about it. She notes that in reality of each vision, Meghana is present there and advises Meghana to observe Puja and Siddharth's relationship. She has another vision of a girl being electrocuted in a bathtub. She identifies the girl as Vaishali, Siddharth's former girlfriend. She learns that she is already dead in a car accident. She enquires about it and learns that Siddharth bribed some officials and got the case closed.

When she returns, Siddharth confronts her and tells her the truth. Vaishali was a social activist and they both were in love but Vaishali's conservative family objected to their marriage. Vaishali elopes with him and they go to his farmhouse. Siddharth hears her scream during her bath and finds her electrocuted. When he was taking her to hospital, they had an accident and he just bribed the officials to avoid any controversy. He became depressed over her death and then Puja started taking care of him. He engaged her because of his mother's urge. However, when he met Meghana, he got attracted to her due to her similarities to Vaishali and later fell in love with her.

The next day, Meghana gets a call from Puja to meet her. Puja tells her about Siddharth's changed behaviour and asks if she and Siddharth are together to which Meghana confesses. Puja tells her that she loved Siddharth since her childhood and she was the one who electrocuted Vaishali as she got furious about learning about her marriage to Siddharth. She tries to kill Meghana but Siddharth arrives there with a police official who is there to arrest Puja for Vaishali's murder. Puja shoots the officer and Siddharth slits her throat accidentally with a knife.

The movie ends with showing Meghana and Siddharth living married happily.

Karaikudi Subramanian has been designated the title "Top-Grade artist" by [[All India Radio]] and has performed numerous radio concerts as well as live concerts at various venues around the world.<ref>{{cite web |title=Lunchtime Concert – Karaikudi S.

Subramanian later turned his focus to education, exploring ways to make music accessible to everyone regardless of their background. In 1989, he founded the institute '[[Brhaddhvani|Brhaddhvani – Research and Training Centre for Musics of the World]]' in Chennai. A few years later, as a result of his vigorous training with [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer]] and his own research at [[Wesleyan University]] and later at [[Brhaddhvani]], he developed a pedagogic system of music learning called ''''C'''orrelated '''O'''bjective '''M'''usic '''E'''ducation and '''T'''raining' (COMET).

== The Karaikudi lineage ==
[[File:Karaikudi Vina Brothers.jpg|thumb|left|The Karaikudi Veena Brothers, from right to left: [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer]] (veena), Karaikudi Subbarama Iyer (veena upright position) and Pudukkotai [[Dakshinamurthy Pillai]] (mridangam). 1917.]] Through the ritualistic ''devasam'' (also called [[Śrāddha]]), it is known that before the first recorded members of the Karaikudi family, the lineage goes back two generations further. However, there is only an oral record of the first two generations without any knowledge of names or details. Malayappa belonged to the third generation and Venkateswara to the fourth. Other than their names, not much is known about these two generations either. Subbaraya – the grandfather of the [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Karaikudi Brothers]] – belonged to the fifth generation. He was the court musician in [[Sivaganga]] and later in Thirugokarnam, [[Pudukkottai]]. Subbaraya's son Subbaya was born in Thirugokarnam. Like his father, Subbayya was also patronised by the court of Pudukkottai under rule of [[Ramachandra Tondaiman]]. The ''Kanakabhisekam'' (gold shower) was bestowed on Subbaraya and Subbayya by the royalty of Pudukottai court to honor their musicianship.<ref name="KSS-Thesis" /><ref name="Sahapedia" />

Subbayya married Subbammal and had two children Subbarama Iyer (1883–1938) and [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Sambasiva Iyer]] (1888–1957). Subbarama Iyer began learning [[Saraswati veena|veena]] from his father at the age of seven and began playing concerts at the age of 12. He was later joined by his younger brother [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Sambasiva Iyer]]. Subbarama Iyer was known for his unique way of holding the [[Saraswati veena|veena]] vertically (urdhva posture) while playing.<ref name="Richard1" /><ref name="KSS-Thesis" />

With the expansion and increasing control of the [[British Empire]] during the first half of the 20th century, the royal courts in the small states of India could no longer afford to patronise arts. The political changes affected artists all over India due to the absence of royal patronage. Leaving Thirugokarnam was inevitable for Subbarama Iyer and [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Sambasiva Iyer]] who were now left to fend for themselves. After moving to [[Madurai]], where they continued to struggle financially, they moved to [[Karaikudi]]. The Nattukkottai Chettiyars (merchant community) in Karaikudi were interested in bringing them to their village and offered the brothers accommodation. Subbarama Iyer and [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Sambasiva Iyer]] gradually established themselves with the support and patronage of other interested merchants and soon became known as the famous "Karaikudi Veena Brothers". They were mostly accompanied by [[Dakshinamurthy Pillai]], the legendary [[mridangam]] player, who became their closest friend and was often referred to as "the third veena".<ref name="Richard1" /><ref name="KSS-Thesis" /><ref name="Award">{{cite news |last1=Venkatakrishnan |first1=Sriram |title=Award was an Anathema to him |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/18sihthhVKj2kLIMA8yAgghydGne8-Odz/view?usp=sharing |work=The Hindu}}</ref><ref name="GodinMusic">{{cite news |last1=Venkatakrishnan |first1=Sriram |title=He saw God in music |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_a_9IehNJPce2D1R-rdav2OI41sRRVT3/view?usp=sharing |work=The Hindu |date=28 April 2006}}</ref>

[[File:KSI adopting KSS 2.jpg|left|thumb|[[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer]] adopting Subramanian in 1957 to pass on the family legacy]] Karaikudi S. Subramanian was born on 23 October 1944, in [[Madurai]], Tamil Nadu to Narayanan Iyer and Lakshmi Ammal – the daughter of Subbarama Iyer. His exposure to music began from his early childhood from his mother. Lakshmi Ammal was an 8th generation veena player<ref name="Richard1" /><ref name="KSS-Thesis">{{cite book |last1=Subramanian |first1=Karaikudi |title=South Indian Vina Tradition and Individual Style |date=1986 |publisher=University Microfilms International |location=Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA |pages=712}}</ref> and taught veena throughout her life. In 1957, Subramanian was adopted by Lakshmi Ammal's paternal uncle [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer]] – the younger of the Karaikudi brothers. [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Sambasiva Iyer]] had no children of his own, and, to pass on the family legacy through a male member of the family, Subramanian became the adopted son of [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Sambasiva Iyer]].<ref name="Richard1" /><ref name="KSS-Thesis" /><ref name="Sahapedia" /><ref name="Garland" />

After the adoption, Subramanian moved to [[Chennai]] and lived at the original [[Kalakshetra]], Theosophical Society with [[Karaikudi Sambasiva Iyer|Sambasiva Iyer]], who worked as a principal there. He was undergoing vigorous training in the foundations of [[Carnatic music]] for one year until the death of his adoptive father in 1958.<ref name="Sahapedia" />

At Kalakshetra, Subramanian had the opportunity to closely observe notable musicians and dancers, such as composer [[Mysore Vasudevachar]], composer and vocalist [[M. D. Ramanathan]] and dancer [[Rukmini Devi Arundale]].<ref name="Richard1" /><ref name="Sahapedia" /><ref name="KSS-Thesis" />

Subramanian then returned to Madurai to pursue his academic studies. He completed his BSc in chemistry at [[Madura College]], Madras University and afterwards pursued a MA in English literature at [[Madura College]], Madras University. In 1975, he moved to the U.S. for doctoral studies in [[Ethnomusicology]] at [[Wesleyan University]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Ph.D. Dissertations in Ethnomusicology |url=https://www.wesleyan.edu/music/graduate/dissertations.html# |website=Wesleyan University}}</ref><ref name="NotesRight">{{cite news |last1=V.R. |first1=Devika |title=Looking at the notes right |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ACjiAGmB26XYowzyKWrcRM_t-JBUksjW/view?usp=sharing |date=16 May 1987 |work=The Hindu |page=12}}</ref><ref name="Berlin" />

== Career ==
From 1965 to 1967 Subramanian worked as a demonstrator in [[Chemistry]] at Madura College. He then returned to Chennai to work as an English lecturer at [[Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda College|Vivekananda College]] from 1970 to 1975.

Inspired by his training with Sambasiva Iyer and his research at [[Wesleyan University]] and [[Brhaddhvani]], Subramanian developed the pedagogy COMET ('''C'''orrelated '''O'''bjective '''M'''usic '''E'''ducation and '''T'''raining). COMET is a holistic system of learning music with the purpose of providing a fuller understanding of music. COMET seeks to preserve the traditional content of [[Carnatic music]], while being contemporary and global in its reach. As an open and inclusive system, COMET seeks to enable anyone to progress regardless of their musical skills and background.
Furthermore, COMET explores cross-cultural musical interactions for a better understanding of one's own tradition through comparison and contrast. Numerous western musicians of various genres have undergone training in COMET. COMET is also applicable for cross-disciplinary interactions, and artists from disciplines such as south Indian classical dance, theatre and poetry have received training in COMET.

[[File:SEMMANGUDI-with-KSS-BEGINNING-OF-BRH.jpg|thumb|left|[[Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer]] at the inauguration of Brhaddhvani]]
Subramanian and Dr. S. Seetha founded the research institute '[[Brhaddhvani|Brhaddhvani – Research and Training Centre for Musics of the World]]' in 1989 with the main purpose of making music and music education accessible to everyone regardless of their background. [[Brhaddhvani]] has been considered an alternative to the traditional [[gurukula]] way of learning. Subramanian's work is aimed towards bridging the gap between tradition and modernity, global and local, and thus finding meaning for tradition in a modern world.<ref name="Alternative" /><ref name="BRHstory" />
He has developed novel techniques intended to make the music learning process effective and holistic.<ref name="NotesRight" /><ref name="Alternative">[http://www.brhaddhvani.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/1997-03-09-Alternative-to-Gurukula-copy.jpg] {{Dead link|date=March 2025 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> To facilitate and accelerate the quality music education, Subramanian's teaching is greatly supported by technology and technological aids, mainly the app Tala Keeper<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://talakeeper.org/|title=Tala Keeper by Srikumar Subramanian|website=Talakeeper.org|access-date=19 December 2025}}</ref> and the online learning platform Patantara.<ref>{{cite web |title=Patantara |url=https://patantara.com |website=Patantara}}</ref><ref name="PitchPerfect">{{cite news |last1=Anand |first1=Lakshmi |title=Perfecting the Pitch Online |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/perfecting-the-pitch-online/articleshow/68570034.cms |access-date=26 March 2019 |newspaper=Times of India}}</ref>

Dr. Subramanian's contributions in music are multi-dimensional, and his work has been considered pioneering by many. Through [[Brhaddhvani]], he has developed programs that benefit learners ranging from novice to expert. [[Brhaddhvani]] offers music training for different levels of knowledge and purposes, and musicians and other artists from various backgrounds, students as well as performing artists, have received training in COMET at Brhaddhvani.<ref name="Barriers" /><ref name="Songofthesouth" />

[[Brhaddhvani]] has received grants from the [[Ford Foundation]], Impact Partners, India Foundation for Arts & the Government of India.

Prominent Carnatic musicians have been associated with [[Brhaddhvani]], among these are [[Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer]], [[Sripada Pinakapani]], T. M. Thyagarajan, [[K. V. Narayanaswamy]], [[Lalgudi Jayaraman|Lalgudi G. Jayaraman]], [[T. Viswanathan]], [[S. Kalyanaraman]], [[Trichy Sankaran]], [[S. R. Janakiraman]], [[S. Rajam]]. <ref name="MusicandVisualArt" <ref name="NotesRight" /><ref name="BRHstory" />

In the early nineties [[Brhaddhvani]] brought the Carnatic maestros to teach the students and teachers of the institute. Each one brought an approach to communicating the intricacies of [[Carnatic music]].<ref name="BRHstory" />

In 1993, [[Brhaddhvani]] organized a voice culture seminar with musicians such as [[Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer]], [[Lalgudi Jayaraman|Lalgudi G. Jayaraman]], [[K. V. Narayanaswamy]], Sandhyavandanam Srinivasa Rao, T.K. Govinda Rao and [[S. Kalyanaraman]].

=== Reviving traditions ===

'''Veena and veena crafting'''

[[File:KVN-WITH-KSS.jpg|left|thumb|Karaikudi Subramanian accompanying [[K.V. Narayanaswamy]]]] Throughout his career, Subramanian has worked towards preserving the [[veena]] and its crafting.

[[Brhaddhvani]] has organised a number of events for the revival and documentation of the [[veena]] tradition, including festivals of [[Saraswati veena|veena]] as a solo instrument and festivals of [[veena]] as an accompanying instrument as a revival of an older tradition.<ref name="BRHstory" />

Patronisation of veena crafting has become greatly reduced throughout the last half a century, and veena craftsmen suffer on account of lack of patronage. This is intensified by the increasing popularity of the electronic veenas. At [[Brhaddhvani]], veena craftsmen have been patronised since the early 90s. Subramanian has initiated projects to support and preserve the art of veena crafting and veena craftsmen. He has collaborated with the German instrument maker Norbert Beyer to bring about an elaborate illustrative book in German on veena craftsmanship.<ref name="BRHstory" /><ref name="CraftmenBRH">{{cite web |title=Music Craft – Vina & Tambura |url=https://www.brhaddhvani.org/brhaddhvani/music-expression/music-craft/ |website=Brhaddhvani |access-date=29 October 2019 |archive-date=29 October 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191029132648/https://www.brhaddhvani.org/brhaddhvani/music-expression/music-craft/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>

'''Sopanam – Temple music of Kerala'''

With the support from [[India Foundation for the Arts]], [[Brhaddhvani]] in collaboration with Dharani – a school of performing arts in [[Kochi]] – documented the temple music of [[Kerala]] called [[Sopana Sangeetham|Sopanam]]. The [[Sopana Sangeetham|Sopanam]] tradition is older longer than [[Carnatic music]] but the former is now almost extinct. It is only performed in a few temples and as an accompaniment to the Indian classical dance form [[Kathakali]].<ref name="BRHstory" /><ref name="IndiaFoundationForArts">{{cite web |title=Brhaddhvani |url=http://indiaifa.org/brhaddhvani.html |website=India Foundation for Arts}}</ref><ref name="Preserving" />
The focus of the project was on identification, documentation and notation of the [[raga]]s and [[Tala (music)|talas]] in [[Sopana Sangeetham|Sopanam]] music and hereby make it more accessible to people, in particular musicians and dancers.<ref name="IndiaFoundationForArts" />

Apart from the audio and video documentations of the music, the music was documented through notations. For the notation of the music, Subramanian made use of his own notational system ''svarasthana notation''.<ref name="BRHstory" /><ref name="IndiaFoundationForArts" />

As a result of the project, [[Sopana Sangeetham|Sopanam]] music has become more accessible than it would have been otherwise. The music tradition is now documented on 5 DV tapes, 75 audio tapes, 5 mini discs and 1 VHS tape and over 100 slides and almost 500 photographs.<ref name="IndiaFoundationForArts" />

=== Music for therapeutic purposes ===
[[File:SchoolChennai.png|thumb|Subramanian teaching music to the Chennai Corporation School Children who were affected by the Tsunami disaster in 2004.]] Music as therapy at [[Brhaddhvani]] is a natural evolution and has been practiced since the 90s.<ref name="Alternative" /><ref name="MusicandVisualArt" />
The fundamental elements in COMET in building the tonal and rhythmic aspects in the ‘mind and body’ brought an insight into music therapy as a discipline leading to original therapeutic music practices at [[Brhaddhvani]]. The three-note practice with [[Vedic chant]]s is being practiced at Brhaddhvani as mediation to anchor the tones in the body.
Furthermore, [[Brhaddhvani]] has conducted classes in music and [[yoga]] as another element in connecting ‘mind and body’.<ref name="SoundMusicTherapy">{{cite web |title=Sound Music Therapy |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_U2198OJDYtQ00tb0MzM00yZHc/view |website=Brhaddhvani |publisher=Brhaddhvani}}</ref>

Subramanian's experiments show that the exercises of COMET have therapeutic benefits. [[Brhaddhvani]] has worked with subjects with multiple sclerosis, ASB, dyslexia, spastics, accident victims, stammer, depression, anxiety and other mental and physical impairments. Moreover, pregnant women have received therapy at Brhaddhvani.<ref name="Alternative" /><ref name="MusicandVisualArt" />

{{Quote|text=''Two spastic children, both adolescents, came regularly (to Brhaddhvani, edited) for 6 months for music therapy. They were given exercises in music and rhythm from the COMET repertoire. Listening to the regular students practice had therapeutic effects. The spastic children’s restlessness gradually reduced. Their sense of rhythm improved. Their habitual patterns began changing. Their inhibitions, too, changed drastically. They began improving their social skills and self-confidence.''|source=Brinda Jayaraman, psychologist (Brhaddhvani) <ref name="SoundMusicTherapy" />}}

=== Music for everyone ===

Traditional [[Carnatic music]] is not available to everyone, which is something Subramanian has attempted to change since 1989. Through his COMET-pedagogy, Subramanian has worked towards making [[Carnatic music]] education accessible to schools, seeking to impart music from early childhood,<ref name="Comitted">{{cite news |last1=L.K. |title=Committed to teaching |url=https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-fridayreview/committed-to-teaching/article2876775.ece |work=The Hindu |date=10 February 2012}}</ref><ref name="Barriers">{{cite news |last1=Krishnan |first1=Lalithaa |title=Going beyond barriers |url=http://www.brhaddhvani.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2006-05-19-Going-Beyond-Barriers-copy.jpg |work=The Hindu |date=19 May 2006 |archive-date=12 August 2019 |access-date=14 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190812221625/http://www.brhaddhvani.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2006-05-19-Going-Beyond-Barriers-copy.jpg |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Catching them young |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XG9VYUGO_9V1RANVAfcI_e5viLte01qx/view?usp=sharing |work=The Hindu |date=3 September 2013}}</ref><ref name="Imparting">{{cite news |last1=K. |first1=Manikandan |title=Imparting education through music |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/133pIS7rdK8zpu7n-HI1DbUMSXun5zah0/view?usp=sharing |work=The Hindu |date=17 January 2006}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Music & Dance |url=http://www.harishree.org/music-dance/ |website=Chettinad Hari Shree Vidyalayam |access-date=14 August 2019 |archive-date=14 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190814045509/http://www.harishree.org/music-dance/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> and as an initiative to bring [[Carnatic music]] to the less privileged societies, Brhaddhvani has introduced village children to [[Carnatic music]].<ref name="Saregamaway">{{cite news |last1=Murali |first1=Nandini |title=Sa re ga ma way |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/124QnkeAtw3jmFUlxkdLDkrqBrj1fOUIK/view?usp=sharing |work=The Week |access-date=18 June 2006}}</ref><ref name="SongonLips">{{cite news |last1=Krishnan |first1=Lalithaa |title=With a song on their lips |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TJF8R1X3235ZoW6h6yjjkEk28L2O10vr/view?usp=sharing |work=The Hindu |date=March 2006}}</ref>

Subramanian (Brhaddhvani)<ref name="BRHstory" />}}

'''Vilvarini'''
[[File:Vilvarini.png|thumb|Subramanian presenting a music program for the village children of Vilvarini.]]

In 2005, [[Brhaddhvani]] supported G. Thirupathi in launching music programmes in the village [[Vilvarani (Tiruvannamalai district)|Vilvarini]]. Long time before then, Subramanian has formed the concept Isai Vazhi Kalvi ("education through music") as part of Brhaddhvani's outreach activities with the purpose of imparting primary education through music to make [[Carnatic music]] accessible to all. The programme Isai Vazhi Kalvi made use of audio-visual presentations which proved to be beneficial for the children by visualising what they were taught. Apart from receiving COMET training from the Brhaddhvani team for three months, Thirupathi was also guided by Subramanian on how to bring music to the village children.<ref name="SongonLips" /><ref name="Saregamaway" />

The students learned the basic exercises of [[Carnatic music]], basic arithmetic through rhythms, Folk music and aphorisms from [[Thirukkural]] and [[Aathichoodi]] through which they also learned correct pronunciation and tonal modulations.<ref name="SongonLips" /><ref name="Saregamaway" />
The programme resulted in enhanced memory, comprehension and concentration skills of the children. Students with mental disabilities participated in the classes which turned out to improve their communication skills.<ref name="SongonLips" /><ref name="Saregamaway" />

{{Quote|text=''Whether they become musicians or opt for other professions, music will always play a role in bringing an improvement in the quality of life and inculcating appreciation and respect for all art forms..''|source=Karaikudi S. Subramanian (The Hindu)<ref name="SongonLips" />}}

'''Folk to Classical'''

Study of stylistically divergent genres is a part of COMET education. World musicians specialised in [[Folk music]] have visited Brhaddhvani to study relevant aspects of [[Carnatic music]]. Through the ''svarasthana notation'', Subramanian has documented Folk songs. Furthermore, Folk songs have been used as kindergartener's music syllabus at Brhaddhvani.<ref name="BRHstory" />

{{Quote|text=''Folk music touches the heart of the people. In this respect Tamil Folk music has an important role to play in the study of world music. Tamil Folk music is rich in the content of literature, reflecting the day to day activities as well as philosophically elevating thoughts. Melodically, Folk music has deeper connections with Karnatak music. Classical ragas, at the grass root level, have their foundation in Folk music. In voice culture Folk music has something valuable to offer. The rhythmic and melodic varieties in Folk music appeal to everyone around the world. Cultural connections make Folk music valuable in the study of Karnatak music. The children knowing folk songs helps them connect with our native culture.''|source=Karaikudi S. Subramanian (Brhaddhvani)<ref name="BRHstory" />}}

As a result of his interactions with Folk musicians at the [[University of Madras]], Subramanian studied the interconnections between Folk and classical music. In collaboration with the violinist V.V. Subramanian, Subramanian produced a program titled ''From Folk to Classical'' in 1990. For the very first time, Folk and classical musicians of India were brought on the same stage to perform together.<ref name="BRHstory" />

=== Cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary practices ===
Brhaddhvani offers music training for different levels of knowledge and purposes, including dance and theatre.<ref name="NatyaandBeyond">{{cite web |last1=CP |first1=Satyajit |title=Music & Natya |url=https://mailchi.mp/4916c8c9ea53/natya-beyond-bharata-kalanjali-260251 |website=Natya & Beyond |publisher=Bharata Kalanjali |access-date=1 April 2019}}</ref><ref name="Barriers" /> Numerous [[Bharatanatyam|south classical Indian dancers]] as well as theatre artists have undergone training in COMET.

[[File:Ancient sentry post atop boulder at Vijayanagara.jpg|250px|thumb|right|A sentry post, [[Vijayanagara|Vijayanagar]] area]]
The city of [[Vijayanagara]] was the [[urban area|urban]] core of the imperial city and the surrounding [[principalities]] of the capital of the [[Vijayanagara Empire]] during the 14th to 16th centuries. Notes by foreign travellers such as [[Abdur Razzaq (traveller)|Abdur Razzak]], the [[Persian people|Persian]] who visited Vijayanagara in 1440, mention seven [[fortification]]s before the gates to the royal palace. The large area between the first and third fortifications contained agricultural fields, gardens and residences. The notes of [[Robert Sewell (historian)|Robert Sewell]] describe countless shops and ''[[bazaar]]s'' (markets) filled with people from different nationalities between this fortification and the palace.

== In medieval literature ==
The capital city of the Vijayanagara Empire was founded on the banks of the Tungabhadra River by [[Harihara I]] and [[Bukka Raya I]] in the early 14th century. The capital city grew with extraordinary rapidity in the early decades of Sangama rule and became one of the biggest cities in the world of the 15th and 16th centuries.<ref>The Political Economy of Craft Production: Crafting Empire in South India by Carla M. Sinopoli p.146</ref><ref name="Mediaeval Deccan History p.106">Mediaeval Deccan History: Commemoration Volume in Honour of Purshottam by A. Rā Kulakarṇī,M. A. Nayeem,Teotonio R. De Souza p.106</ref> The capital city had splendid layout with forts, palaces, gardens and temples in it.<ref>His. & Civ. For Class Vii by Tata Mcgraw-Hill p.46</ref> The construction of major irrigation works during the 15th century under Emperor Deva Raya and under Emperor [[Krishna Deva Raya]] in the early 16th century was one of the main reasons why the city flourished and expanded.<ref name="Mediaeval Deccan History p.106"/> Several foreign travelers visited the city in the 15th and 16th century and were impressed by the magnificence of the city.
The Persian traveler Abdur Razzak who visited the capital city in the 15th century described the city with the following words:" The city of Vijayanagar is such that the pupil of the eye has never seen a place like it, and the ear of intelligence has never been informed that there existed anything to equal it in the world"<ref>The Dancing Girl: A History of Early India by Balaji Sadasivan p.241-243</ref> The Portuguese traveler Domingo
Paes says of the city: " This is the best provided city in the world."<ref>A Comprehensive History of Medieval India by Farooqui Salma Ahmed,Salma Ahmed Farooqui p.136</ref> [[Domingo Paes]] was overwhelmed by the city and stated:" The people in the city are countless in number, so much so that I do not wish to write it down for fear it should be thought fabulous. What I saw seemed as large as Rome and very beautiful to the sight; there are many groves of trees within it, many orchards and gardens of fruit trees and many conduits of water which flow in the midst of it, and in places there are lakes."<ref>International Dictionary of Historic Places: Asia and Oceania by Trudy Ring,Robert M. Salkin,Sharon La Boda p.856</ref> The Italian traveler Nicolo Conti who visited the city in 1420 CE, estimated the circumference of the city to be sixty miles and was impressed by the strength of its fortifications.<ref>A Comprehensive History of Medieval India by Farooqui Salma Ahmed,Salma Ahmed Farooqui p.137</ref>

== Excavations ==
Recent excavations have unearthed archaeological artifacts dating from the 3rd century BC to early in the 2nd millennium, documenting evidence from over seven hundred important sites. These sites include ash [[mound]]s, ancient settlements, [[megalithic]] cemeteries, temples and [[rock art]]. These findings show that the Vijayanagar area was densely settled for a long period before the creation of the empire.

=== Land ===
Starting at its outermost [[fortification]]s, the [[principality]] of Vijayanagar spans from [[Anegondi]] in the north to [[Hosapete]] in the south and covers a total area of 650 km².<ref name="area">Studies conducted by Vijayanagara metropolitan survey concluded that the ancient fortified city with all its walled suburban settlements encompassed this area. Some suburbs were as big as towns and are still populated by people, New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p. 5</ref><ref name="area1">This data closely matches the writings of Persian traveller Abdur Razzak who estimated the size of the capital in 1440 as 540 km² - Hampi, A Travel Guide, Department of Tourism, India, Good Earth publication, 2003, p. 101</ref> Vijayanagara's core, an area of 25 km², includes the [[Tungabhadra River]] flowing through rocky terrain with huge boulders piled in massive formations. In addition to this naturally daunting landscape, builders constructed fortifications surrounding the regal city in several layers.<ref name="Fort">An inscription of Harihara II dated 1378 states about the Vijayanagar fortification that it was like "arms stretching out to embrace Hemakuta Hill" - Hampi, A Travel Guide, Department of Tourism, India, Good Earth publication, 2003, p. 63</ref> The rocky hillocks made excellent sentinel points for watch towers and granite boulders provided the raw material for temple construction. South of the river the rocky landscape disappears, replaced by flat cultivable land where large and small temples complexes were built. The largest human populations were located to the south of the irrigated lands that were watered by a system of clever ducts and ''anecut'' (dams) channelling water to the capital from the river.<ref name="water">In semi arid lands like the Vijayanagara area, abundant and free flowing water was the best index of the empire's prosperity. The water supply system at Vijayanagara was an elaborate system supplying agricultural and drinking water that was so advanced for its time that most of its features were incorporated into the Tungabhadra Dam Project in the 1950s - Hampi, A Travel Guide, Department of Tourism, India, Good Earth publication, p. 88</ref> At its peak, Vijayanagara may have had up to a million residents.

=== Zoning ===
For the sake of simplicity archaeologists have divided the capital area into many zones. Of these, the major two zones are the Sacred Centre and the Royal Centre. The former, generally spread along the south bank, is characterized by the highest concentration of religious structures. The Royal Centre is notable for its stately structures, both civil and military. The very seat of power of the empire was located at the core of this area.

Islamic Quarter also sometimes called, as the Moorish Quarter is located between the northern slope of the Malyavanta hill towards and the Talarigatta Gate. According to the archaeologists, high-ranking Muslim officers of the king's court and the military officers stayed in this area.<ref>http://www.hampi.in/Stay_&_Tour/Zones_of_Hampi.htm {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100223182707/http://www.hampi.in/Stay_%26_Tour/Zones_of_Hampi.htm |date=2010-02-23 }} Zones of Hampi</ref>

=== Legends ===
Two important legends associated with [[Hampi]], the core area of Vijayanagar, had an important part in making it a pilgrim destination for several centuries prior to the Vijayanagara era. One legend describes a Goddess, Pampa, who married Virupaksha ([[Shiva|Lord Shiva]]) on the Hemakuta Hill and was thereafter considered to be an incarnation of [[Parvati]]. From Pampa came the name ''Pampe'' or (in Kannada) ''Hampe''.
The other legend draws on [[the Hindu]] epic [[Ramayana]] in which [[Lord Rama]] and his brother, Lakshmana, searched for Sita in the vicinity of the ancient capital of [[Kishkindha]] and met [[Hanuman]] on Rishyamuka Hill. [[Sugreeva]], the monkey king in exile, and Rama made a covenant to mutually help each other find Sita and get rid of the evil King [[Vali (Ramayana)|Vali]]. This agreement is celebrated by the presence of a temple in which are icons of Lord Rama, Lakshmana and Sugreeva. Hanuman, the devout follower of Rama, is said to have been born on Anjenadri Hill near the Tungabhadra river facing Hampi. Hence his name is [[Hanuman|Anjaneya]].<ref name="hanuman">A shrine located here with a rock carving of [[Hanuman]] marks his place of birth. The Chintamani ashram on the bank of the river near Anegondi marks the spot where Sugriva fought Vali and the location of Vali's death at the hands of Lord Rama. At the extreme northeast corner of Vijayanagara is a mound believed to be the burial place of Vali, according to John McKim Malville, New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p. 132</ref> Archaeology traces the history of Hampi to [[Neolithic]] settlements while inscriptional evidence confirms that in more recent times the area came under the rule of the [[Chalukyas]], [[Rashtrakutas]], [[Hoysalas]] and finally the tiny kingdom of Kampili.

The legendary association of this area with Lord Virupaksha (Harihara and Bukka Raya being of Shaiva faith) and Lord Rama (the personification of the perfect king) was not lost on the empire's founders. Its natural ruggedness and inaccessibility must have been additional reasons to choose this location for the capital of the new empire.<ref name="choice">Hampi, A Travel Guide, Department of Tourism, India, Good Earth publication, 2003, pp. 20–27</ref> During the empire's rule, Vijayanagara was known as one of the most beautiful cities in India.<ref name="beauty">Portuguese traveller Domingo Paes wrote in 1520 that in Vijayanagara, the streets were beautiful with beautiful houses having balconies and arcades, ''Hampi, A Travel Guide'' p70, Department of Tourism, India</ref> A [[Indian copper plate inscriptions|copper plate inscription]] (''Tamarashasana'') of Marappa (one of the Sangama brothers) is dated 1346 and traces the Sangama genealogy, identifying the Sangama family deity (''gotradhidaivam'') as Lord Virupaksha of Hampi.<ref name="familydiety">New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p. 13</ref> Inscriptions attesting to the elevation of Lord Virupaksha to ''Rashtra devata'' (God of the Kingdom) have been found. By the time of Bukka I, the capital had already grown into a great capital and inscriptions call it ''great Nagari named Vijaya situated in Hemakuta''.<ref name="Hemakuta">[[Epigraphia Carnatica]], V, Hn 133; New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p. 22</ref>

=== Forts and roads ===
[[File:Gopura (tower) of Mallikarjuna temple in Mallappanagudi near Hospet.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Temple in outer fortification]]

The Vijayanagar empire created its cities primarily for protection against invasion. The city itself was a fortress and designed as such in every possible way. It was built of massive stone and earthen walls, with hilltop fortresses and watch towers scattered across its length and breadth. Visitors to the city, irrespective of their guild and intention, had to travel through a heavily fortified and protected area before reaching the main urban core which gave them an ample view of the might that protected the empire. Massive fortifications stood at every possible entry into the main metropolitis and in other crucial locations. Additional defensive features were watch posts and bastions located along roads, gates and hilltops that provided maximum visibility.<ref name="fort">Carla M. Sinopoli and Kathleen D. Morrison, New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p. 104</ref>

The capital was the political nerve centre of the empire as well as a center of commerce and pilgrimage. Envoys from other kingdoms, merchants, pilgrims, soldiers and ordinary people all travelled about in the great city on its extensive network of roads. Research has shown over 80 transportation related sites linked by several broad roads about 30 to 60 m wide that were the major transport routes into the city core. Smaller roads, less than 10 m wide, led to temples, settlements and irrigation fields. All major roadways could be monitored from watch towers, gates and rest houses.<ref name="settlements">Carla M. Sinopoli and Kathleen D. Morrison, New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p106</ref>

=== Urban settlements ===
The greater metropolitan region of the city was inhabited by royalty, imperial officers, soldiers, agriculturists, craftsman, merchants, labourers among others. Literary sources from this era testify to the presence of large military encampments on the city's outskirts. Outside the metropolis, walled towns and villages were scattered about the countryside. Some settlements may have been populated by only a few thousand people while others were large enough to hold ten to fifteen thousand residents. Each settlement had multiple shrines and temples. Numerous Vijayanagar period relics have been lost due to the inhabitation of these settlements by modern-day settlers.<ref name="settlements"/>

=== Agriculture and craft ===
While today the city's landscape appears to be barren, there is recorded evidence of extensive deforestation and numerous agricultural activities. This suggests that the landscape has changed dramatically. Virtually all available arable land was irrigated using a variety of innovative methods. A significant percentage of the population was involved in agriculture, making the city self-sufficient for food. This enabled it to withstand long sieges, of which there were many during the empire's three century long existence. Numerous canals were dug to provide a perennial water supply to the narrow strip of fertile land bordering the [[Tungabhadra River]]. Many of these canals are still in use today though they usually have been modified to meet current requirements. Many of the tanks (''bunds'') created for water storage purposes like the Kamalapura tank are still in use. Excavation of the ''Intensive Survey Area'' has shown the presence of sixty water reservoir embankments.<ref name="reservoir">Carla M. Sinopoli and Kathleen D. Morrison, New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p. 107</ref> Numerous other agricultural features such as check dams, erosion control walls and wells have been recorded. The net result of these systems was a complex agricultural landscape characterized by a multitude of agricultural regimes appropriate to the complex topography, resources, needs and differing populations.<ref name="iron">Carla M. Sinopoli and Kathleen D. Morrison, New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p. 108</ref>

Sandur, which formed the southern boundary of the greater metropolitan region, is still known today for iron and haematite ores. Iron slag and other metallurgical debris have been documented at more than thirty sites. Of these, five sites have been dated to the Vijayanagar period and contain iron smelting workshops.<ref name="iron"/>

=== Sacred sites ===
[[File:Vijayanagar snakestone.jpg|225px|thumb|right|A Vijayanagara ''naga'' stone]]
As well as being a bustling commercial and military encampment, the metropolitan area had over one hundred and forty sacred sites, making it an important centre of religion and religious pilgrimage. Along with temples, numerous sacred images and structures have been recorded in residential and defensive sites. Sacred sites include large temples with towering ''[[Gopuram|gopura]]s'', such as the ''Mallikarjuna temple'' in the town of Mallappanagudi located on the main road connecting modern [[Hosapete]] and [[Vijayanagara]] and built in the period of [[Deva Raya I]].<ref name="sacred">Carla M. Sinopoli and Kathleen D. Morrison, New Light on Hampi, Recent research in Vijayanagara, edited by John M. Fritz and George Michell, MARG, 2001, p109</ref> There are many smaller temples and shrines. Even more numerous are the images of deities carved into boulder and slab surfaces as well as hero stones (''virgal'') which were also considered sacred. Sculpted icons of [[Hanuman]], [[Bhairava]], [[Virabhadra]] and goddesses in various forms are also frequently seen as well as images from folk traditions such as [[naga (mythology)|naga]] stones ([[snake]] stones) linked with woman's ritual activities. Tombs associated with Muslim inhabitants of the city are also present.<ref name="sacred"/>

'''Shobha Gurtu''' (1925–2004) was an Indian singer in the [[Hindustani classical music|Hindustani classical]] style. Though she had equal command over pure classical style, it was with light semi-classical music that she received her fame, and in time came to be known as the ''[[Thumri]] Queen'',<ref>[http://in.rediff.com/news/2004/sep/27gurtu.htm Thumri queen Shobha Gurtu no more] News, ''[[Rediff.com]]'', 27 September 2004.</ref> and for the 'Abhinaya' sung in her full-throated voice. She was awarded the [[Padma Bhushan]] in 2002.<ref>[http://www.rediff.com/news/2004/sep/27gurtu1.htm 'On stage Gurtu was always Radha'] News, ''[[Rediff.com]]'', 27 September 2004.</ref><ref>[http://www.themusicmagazine.com/shobhagurtutrib.html Tribute -Abhinaya in vocal chords] www.themusicmagazine.com. 28 October 2004.</ref>

==Background and personal life==
Bhanumati Shirodkar was born in [[Belgaum]], (present [[Karnataka]]) in 1925. Her mother, Menekabai Shirodkar, was a professional dancer. Menakabai was a 'gayaki' disciple of [[Ustad Alladiya Khan]] of the [[Jaipur-Atrauli gharana]].<ref name=itc>[http://www.itcsra.org/celebrated_masters.asp?celebrate=3 Shobha Gurtu] Celebrated Masters, [[ITC Sangeet Research Academy]].</ref> It was from her that Shobha received her training in music from a very young age.

Shobha married Vishwanath Gurtu, a [[Kashmiri Brahmin]] gentleman from a good family, and became known as Shobha Gurtu. Her father-in-law, Pandit Narayan Nath Gurtu, was a highly placed officer in the Police, a scholar and also, as a hobby, he played the sitar.<ref name=itc/> He was posted for several years in Belgaum district, which is how Shobha and Vishwanath became acquainted. The couple had three sons, Ravi, Trilok and Narendra. Their eldest son, Ravi Gurtu, was a rhythm player. Another son, [[Trilok Gurtu]] is a famed percussionist.<ref>Trilok Gurtu Biography</ref>

==Career==
[[File:Shobha Gurtu.jpg|thumb|right|Shobha Gurtu performing in a concert]]
Though Shobha's formal music training began with 'Ustad Bhurji Khan', the youngest son of [[Ustad Alladiya Khan]], the founder of the [[Jaipur-Atrauli gharana]] in [[Kolhapur]], from whom her mother was learning at the time, while she was still a younger girl, and seeing her talent, Ustad Bhurji Khan's family immediately took a liking of her, and she started spending long hours with them. Her ties with the [[Jaipur-Atrauli gharana]] were to strengthen still, when she started learning from, Ustad Alladiya Khan's nephew Ustad Natthan Khan; though she really came into her own under the tutelage of Ustad Ghamman Khan, who came to stay with their family in Mumbai, to teach her mother thumri-dadra and other semi-classical forms.<ref>[https://archive.today/20120915052827/http://www.tehelka.com/story_main7.asp?filename=hub100904Passages_shobha.asp Passages...

Shobha Gurtu specialised in semi classical forms such as [[thumri]], ''dadra'', ''Kajri'', Hori etc., effortlessly adding pure classical passages into her singing, thus creating a new form, and reviving the magic of forms like Thumri, of which she became a greatest exponent in time. She was particularly influenced by singer [[Begum Akhtar]] and Ustad [[Bade Ghulam Ali Khan]].<ref>[http://www.tribuneindia.com/2004/20041010/women.htm#3 TRIBUTE – She infused life into thumri] ''[[The Tribune (Chandigarh)|The Tribune]]'', 10 October 2004.</ref>

She earned a [[Filmfare]] nomination as Best Female Playback Singer for the song "Saiyyan Rooth Gaye" from the hit film ''[[Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki]]'' (1978).<ref>[http://deep750.googlepages.com/FilmfareAwards.pdf 1st Filmfare Awards 1953]</ref> In [[Marathi cinema]], she sang for films like ''Saamna'' and ''Lal Mati''. In 1979, The Gramophone Company of India (EMI) released her first album ''At Her Best... Shobha Gurtu'', considered a high ranking classic recording displaying her dazzling vocal work in the eastern Uttar Pradesh (Purbi Gayaki) musical tradition rooted in the 19th century.

Over the years, she travelled all over the world for concerts, including one at the [[Carnegie Hall]], New York City, performing alongside musical greats and, Pt. [[Birju Maharaj]]. Her album of gazal "Tarz" along with [[Mehdi Hassan]] was popular.<ref>[https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9807E2DE1638F936A2575AC0A961958260&scp=1&sq=Shobha%20Gurtu&st=cse MUSIC REVIEW; At Carnegie Hall, an All-Star Cast From India] ''[[New York Times]]'', 15 September 1997.</ref> She often lent her voice to the collaborative jazz albums of her son [[Trilok Gurtu]]. In 2000, she featured in the [[Jana Gana Mana Video]], which was released to mark the 50th year of the Indian Republic, where she sang the Indian National Anthem, ''[[Jana Gana Mana]]'', along with other leading classical singers and musicians of India.

The '''55th Regiment of Bengal Native Infantry''' was a regiment of the [[Bengal Native Infantry]] and formed part of the [[East India Company]]'s [[Bengal Army]] prior to the [[Indian rebellion of 1857]]. The regiments underwent frequent changes of numbering during their period of existence. The traditional formation of British and [[Presidency armies]]' regiments was by a hierarchy in which the "1st Regiment" was the oldest and the highest number was given to the youngest. In 1764, the Bengal Native Infantry regiments were renumbered in the order of the seniority of their captain.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.britishempire.co.uk/forces/armyunits/indianinfantry/indianinfantrypre1857.htm |title=Land forces of the British Empire:Indian Mutiny |publisher=BritishEmpire.org |last=Luscombe |first=Stephen}}</ref>

The vast majority of the Bengal Native Infantry regiments rebelled in the [[Indian Rebellion of 1857]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://orbat.com/site/history/historical/india/1857rebel.html |title=India: The Sepoy Rebellion/Mutiny of 1857: Regiments that Rebelled/Mutinied |publisher=Orbat.com |last=Rikhye |first=Ravi |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030803114846/http://www.orbat.com/site/history/historical/india/1857rebel.html |archive-date=3 August 2003}}</ref>

The 55th Regiment mutinied in [[Nowshera, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa|Nowshera]] and [[Mardan]], Major Becher described this as follows:
"On the 18th May the Commanding Officer of the 10th Irregular Cavalry at Nowshera reported to Brigadier Cotton that the 55th' Regiment of Native Infantry at both Nowshera and Murdan were in a state of discontent and next day Colonel Nicholson telegraphed to us at Pindee that the detachment of 10th Irregular Cavalry at Murdan showed signs of disaffection. A wing of Her Majesty's 24th was immediately ordered to march from Pindee and the garrison Attock."<ref name="Becher">[https://ia800800.us.archive.org/27/items/in.ernet.dli.2015.63189/2015.63189.Political-Diaries-Of-Lieuth-Bedwardes-Assistant-To-Th-Mutiny-Records-Reports-In-Two-Parts-Volviii-Part-Ii_text.pdf From Major J B.

The 55th like other rebellious regiments were eventually defeated by British forces, in the Punjab Mutiny Report Major Becher used the fate of the 55th Regiment as an example when dealing with a rebellious tribe:
"When it should really be believed that fortune had returned to our standard, I knew that the fate of the fugitive [[Dhund (tribe)|Dhoonds]] would resemble that of the 55th Regiment. They would be delivered up or driven out, if they really were lurking there, so after some pause, I poured into the country all the levies I could command, amounting to some 300 men, in five principal bands, forming a ring round the base of Murree, guarding the River Jhelum, and cutting off еscape."<ref name="Becher" />

== Early life ==
Mamman Khan was born to Mohammed Hanif on 4 April 1967 in the village of [[Bhadas, Haryana|Bhadas]], [[Ferozepur Jhirka]]. He completed high school at a small school in his hometown before enrolling in Civil Engineering at Bengaluru University, Karnataka in 1994. Mamman Khan also worked for [[DLF (company)|DLF]], a [[commercial real estate]] development company, for a while before launching a hugely successful construction supply firm.{{cn|date=February 2024}}

== Political career ==
Mamman Khan contested the Ferozepur Jhirka Assembly elections [[Independent politician|independent]] in 2014 and was defeated by [[Naseem Ahmed]] by only 3,245 votes. Mamman Khan then won the [[Ferozepur Jhirka Assembly constituency|Ferozepur Jhirka Assembly]] elections under the [[Indian National Congress]] by a margin of 37,004 votes against [[Naseem Ahmed]]. This landslide victory was attributed to a variety of factors, including Ahmed's transfer from the [[Indian National Lok Dal]] to the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]], which is unpopular amongst the predominantly [[Meo (ethnic group)|Muslim Meos]] inhabiting the region, as well as Mamman receiving the candidacy ticket from the [[Indian National Congress]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Ferozepur Jhirka Assembly Constituency Election Result - Legislative Assembly Constituency |url=https://resultuniversity.com/election/ferozepurjhirka-haryana-assembly-constituency |access-date=2023-10-05 |website=resultuniversity.com}}</ref>

=== Alleged Involvement in the 2023 Haryana Riots ===
{{Full article|2023 Haryana riots}}

When speaking in the [[Haryana Legislative Assembly]] in February 2023, Mamman Khan displayed photographs depicting acts of violence allegedly by the [[Cow vigilante violence in India|cow vigilante]], Monu Manesar. Mamman Khan raised concerns on Nasir and Junaid's incident, who were killed on the suspicion of cattle smuggling, were burnt by "influential” cow vigilantes and later they brutally thrashed them and handed them over to Ferozepur Jhirka police in Haryana, which is also Mamman Khan's constituency.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://thewire.in/communalism/nasir-junaid-burnt-on-the-advice-of-senior-vigilantes-reveals-prime-accused | title=Nasir, Junaid Burnt on the Advice of 'Senior' Vigilantes, Reveals Prime Accused }}</ref> This speech was not considered of any major significance until the [[2023 Haryana riots|2023 Haryana Riots]] which took place in the [[Nuh district]] of [[Haryana]], on 31 July 2023. During the riots, Mamman Khan was accused for instigating violence in the Nuh by the Home Minister of Haryana. Manohar Lal Khattar, also indirectly mentioned Mamman Khan when he said that “fingers are being pointed at some other Congress MLAs” in connection with the [[2023 Haryana riots|Nuh violence]] and added that absence of a response from the opposition party certainly proves that “something is suspicious".{{fact|date=August 2024}}

Mamman Khan was called in front of the [[Special Investigation Team (India)|Special Investigation Team]] for an investigation into his involvement in the [[2023 Haryana riots|2023 Haryana Riots]] to the Nagina village police station in Nuh. Six months proceeding the Nuh violence, Mamman Khan was later charged under the [[Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act]]. Police had earlier accused Khan of inciting violence and being in touch with those involved in sharing provocative posts on social media platforms. Besides, he also faces some other charges in the FIR. This decision was heavily opposed by [[Bhupinder Singh Hooda]] and other members of the Indian National Congress. <ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Nuh violence: 6 months on, terror charges against Congress MLA Mamman Khan |url=https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/haryana-nuh-violence-police-add-terror-uapa-charges-on-congress-mla-mamman-khan-2505479-2024-02-22 |access-date=2024-02-22 |website=India Today |date=22 February 2024 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-02-21 |title=Congress MLA Mamman Khan charged under UAPA for role in Nuh violence |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/delhi-news/congress-mla-mamman-khan-charged-under-uapa-for-role-in-nuh-violence-101708537998525.html |access-date=2024-02-22 |website=Hindustan Times |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Staff |first=Maktoob |date=2024-02-22 |title=Six months after Hindutva violence in Nuh, Haryana Police books Congress MLA Mamman Khan under UAPA |url=https://maktoobmedia.com/india/six-months-after-hindutva-violence-in-nuh-haryana-police-books-congress-mla-mamman-khan-under-uapa/ |access-date=2024-02-22 |website=Maktoob media |language=en-US}}</ref>

=== Foiled Assassination plot ===
In October, 2025 multiple media outlets reported that the Haryana Police’s Special Task Force found out that two gangsters based abroad allegedly conspired to attack Khan. According to police, four associates in India were arrested for conducting reconnaissance, and a pistol was recovered during raids. Following the intelligence inputs, security around Khan was increased while the investigation continued.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2025-10-12 |title=कांग्रेस MLA मामन खान की हत्या की साजिश का खुलासा: गैंगस्टर गोदारा के कहने पर 4 युवकों ने रेकी की; पिछले महीने सिक्योरिटी बढ़ी - gurugram News |url=https://www.bhaskar.com/local/haryana/gurugram/news/congress-mla-mamman-khan-murder-planing-four-arrestedgangster-rohit-godara-136152757.html |archive-url=http://web.archive.org/web/20251105064932/https://www.bhaskar.com/local/haryana/gurugram/news/congress-mla-mamman-khan-murder-planing-four-arrestedgangster-rohit-godara-136152757.html |archive-date=2025-11-05 |access-date=2025-12-26 |work=Dainik Bhaskar |language=hi}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Sharma |first=Nikhil |date=2025-10-15 |title=Haryana STF foils plot to attack Congress MLA Mamman Khan; 4 held with links to gangster Rohit Godara |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/gurgaon/stf-foils-plot-against-cong-mla-4-hired-by-gangster-godara-held/articleshow/124560923.cms |access-date=2025-12-26 |work=The Times of India |issn=0971-8257}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Karmakar |first=Debashish |date=2025-10-14 |title=Two gangsters abroad plotted attack on Congress MLA Mamman Khan: STF |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/gurugram-news/two-gangsters-abroad-plotted-attack-on-congress-mla-mamman-khan-stf-101760380527802.html |access-date=2025-12-26 |website=Hindustan Times |language=en}}</ref>

'''''Maa Aavida Meeda Ottu Mee Aavida Chala Manchidi''''' ({{translation|I swear on my wife, your wife is a good woman}}) is a 2001 Indian Telugu-language [[drama film]] written, directed and produced by [[E. V. V. Satyanarayana]]. The film stars [[Srikanth (Telugu actor)|Srikanth]], [[Raasi (actress)|Raasi]], [[Vadde Naveen]], and [[Laya (actress)|Laya]]. In the film, two estranged lovers—Praveen (Naveen) and Subadra (Raasi)—meet unexpectedly after their respective marriages. Subadra intends to elope and remarry Praveen, leaving her husband Jagdeesh (Srikanth).

The film is loosely inspired by the Hindi film ''[[Silsila (1981 film)|Silsila]]''. The film was released on 2 February 2001.

== Plot ==
Praveen and Subadra love each other against their parents and decide to elope. They plan to meet at the bus station on a night but Praveen does not turn up for unknown reasons while Subadra is caught by her parents who forcibly take her away

Sometime later, Subadra is married to Jagdeesh, and the couple lives in Prem Nagar colony in [[Hyderabad]]. Jagdeesh, who works as a manager in a car showroom, always strives to impress Subadra but she acts indifferent towards him. Praveen joins the same company where Jagdeesh works, and they quickly become close acquaintances of each other. Praveen also moves into the same neighbourhood with his wife Kanaka Durga, and their houses are located adjacent to one another.

Soon, Praveen realizes that her former lover Subadra is Jagdeesh's wife. When Subadra is angry with Praveen for not meeting her that night, Praveen reveals that he was unconscious for ten days as he was beaten by his father. Subadra, who still is in love with Praveen, proposes to elope so that they can marry. Reluctant Praveen tries to persuade Subadra that Jagdeesh is a kind-hearted person but Subadra does not budge.

One day, both of them leave for [[Goa]] by informing their spouses that they are going on a trip for different reasons. They check into a hotel but Subadra stars feeling guilty about her actions. There, they meet GV and Avanti, ex-classmates of Praveen who are now a couple. They share a similar story but Avanti's husband dies by suicide following her elopement with GV.

Subadra gradually grows fond of her husband Jagdeesh and feels suspicion over Praveen's materialistic motives behind eloping with her. After a few days, Subadra returns to Hyderabad by leaving a note to Praveen that she had changed her mind about remarriage, and prefers to stay with Jagdeesh.

Meanwhile, Kanaka Durga learns that Praveen has eloped with her neighbour's wife. She treats Praveen with disgust following his return from Goa. Subadra resorts to suicide as she couldn't tolerate the deprecatory remarks on her by society. Kanaka Durga, on the other hand, decides to go for an abortion as she doesn't want to bear the child of evil-minded Praveen. Both of them are admitted to Mediciti hospital where GV and Avanti work as doctors while Praveen and Jagdeesh also arrive. There, GV and Avanti reveal they planned Subadra's elopement with Praveen so that she realizes the importance of marriage and loving husband. Subadra and Kanaka Durga realize their mistakes and reunite with their husbands.

The final of the [[1983 Cricket World Cup]] was played between [[India national cricket team|India]] and the [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] at [[Lord's]], [[London]] on 25 June 1983. This was the third consecutive World Cup final appearance for the West Indies, having won the last two [[Cricket World Cup]]s.

The match was the third consecutive World Cup final hosted at Lord's, following those in [[1975 Cricket World Cup Final|1975]] and [[1979 Cricket World Cup Final|1979]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sampat |first=Meit |title=World Cup History: 4 finals played at Lord's |url=https://www.sportskeeda.com/cricket/world-cup-history-4-finals-played-at-lord-s |access-date=2022-04-30 |website=sportskeeda.com |language=en-us}}</ref> India was making their first appearance at a World Cup final after defeating England by 6 wickets in the first semi-finals.<ref>{{Cite web |author=Scroll Staff |title=A day that changed the face of Indian cricket: Tributes to Kapil Dev and Co's 1983 World Cup triumph |url=https://scroll.in/field/998452/a-day-that-changed-the-face-of-indian-cricket-tributes-to-kapil-dev-and-cos-1983-world-cup-triumph |access-date=2022-04-30 |website=Scroll.in |date=25 June 2021 |language=en-US}}</ref> This was also the first appearance by an Asian nation in a World Cup final.

As a result, the Indian team was only given odds of 66–1 at the start of the final.<ref>{{cite news |author=Scroll Staff |title=Pause, rewind, play: India's 1983 World Cup triumph changed world cricket forever |url=https://scroll.in/field/957156/pause-rewind-play-indias-1983-world-cup-heroes-talk-about-a-win-that-changed-cricket-forever |access-date=26 December 2022 |work=Scroll.in}}</ref><ref name="mintanalysis" /><ref>{{cite web |last1= |first1= |title=1983 World Cup win was the greatest moment of my life, says Kapil Dev |url=https://sportscafe.in/cricket/articles/2019/may/24/1983-world-cup-win-was-the-greatest-moment-of-my-life-says-kapil-dev |website=Sportscafe.in |language=en |date=24 May 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=The first cup is the sweetest: Remembering India's 1983 win, 35 years on – The Leaflet |url=https://theleaflet.in/remembering-indias-1983-world-cup-win-35-years-on/ |website=theleaflet.in |date=18 June 2018}}</ref>

==Match details==

After losing the toss, India was asked to bat first against a West Indies team that arguably boasted the world's best bowling attack. [[Sunil Gavaskar]], who had a generally unsuccessful tournament, got dismissed early on for two. A partnership between [[Krishnamachari Srikkanth]] and [[Mohinder Amarnath]] took India past the 50 mark, before the former was taken lbw by Marshall. Amarnath was then bowled by Holding for 26, and only eleven more runs were made before [[Yashpal Sharma (cricketer)|Yashpal Sharma]] fell. [[Kapil Dev]], the Indian captain, took 8 balls to reach 15, but was caught off the bowling of [[Larry Gomes]]; leaving India at 110/5. Kirti Azad didn't score any runs. [[Roger Binny]] was caught on two, while [[Sandeep Patil]] made 27 to get India to 153/8. All-rounder [[Madan Lal]] soon followed for 17, and 10th wicket partnership made 22 runs before [[Michael Holding]] bowled [[Syed Kirmani]] for 14. India were thus bowled out for 183 in 54.4 overs, which many thought was easily reachable. [[Andy Roberts (cricketer)|Andy Roberts]] had claimed three wickets, and Malcolm Marshall, Michael Holding and Larry Gomes took two wickets each. Sandeep Patil and Madan Lal saved the game to get the team past the 150-run mark at a critical point in the match where India scored 183 runs. After India was bowled out for just 183 runs, Kapil Dev told everyone to fight for every single run. The first over by Kapil Dev was a Maiden.

The West Indies set out to chase the low target of 184 but lost an early wicket when [[Balwinder Sandhu]] famously clean bowled [[Gordon Greenidge]]. [[Desmond Haynes]] and [[Viv Richards]], batted smoothly past 50, but both batsmen were removed by the bowling of [[Madan Lal]], leaving the West Indies at 57/3. Lal soon claimed a third wicket – that of Gomes – and Dev then caught West Indies captain Clive Lloyd, leaving the West Indies at 66/5. Ten runs later, [[Faoud Bacchus]] was removed by Sandhu. [[Jeff Dujon]] and [[Malcolm Marshall]] put on a partnership of 43 runs before Mohinder Amarnath dismissed them on 119 and 124 respectively. Soon, Kapil Dev trapped Andy Roberts for an lbw, and Amarnath got Michael Holding out LBW. The West Indies were thus all out for 140, and India had won their maiden Cricket World Cup by 43 runs. The Indian bowlers had completed one of the biggest upsets in cricket history, defeating the previously invincible West Indies. Both Amarnath and Lal had taken three wickets for India, while Sandhu claimed two. Amarnath was awarded the Man of the Match for his all-round performance.<ref name=almanack>{{cite web|publisher=reprinted by ESPNcricinfo|title=India defy the odds|work=Wisden|date=2 June 2008 |accessdate=4 November 2013|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/wisdenalmanack/content/story/150434.html}}</ref> There was no "Man of the Series" award in 1983.

The '''Students' Educational and Cultural Movement of Ladakh''' (SECMOL) is an Indian [[non-governmental organisation]] based in [[Leh]], [[Ladakh]], India.

==History==
The Students' Educational and Cultural Movement of Ladakh (SECMOL) is an organisation founded in 1988 aimed at reforming the educational system of [[Ladakh]], by a group of young Ladakhis returning from university who understood the problems of the younger generation with modern education, their lack of focus and the cultural confusion. Their activities include working to reform the government school system, helping village students in their education, awakening youth to the problems stemming from inappropriate and insensitive schooling, producing related videos and radio programmes, and designing and building solar-heated eco-friendly buildings.<ref name="Official Website">[http://www.secmol.org Official Website]</ref><ref>[http://www.reachladakh.com/Non_Governmental_Organisations.htm Reach Ladakh]</ref>

==Phey campus==
[[File:Main building SECMOL campus.jpg|thumb|Main building SECMOL campus|300px]]SECMOL Campus is located near the village of [[Phey]] in the [[Indus valley]] 18 km from [[Leh]]. It was developed between 1994 and 1999 and was inaugurated in 1998 by the [[Dalai Lama]].
Built using simple, low-cost traditional techniques, the campus now comprises three residential houses, 20 small "cell rooms" and a large school building, all solar heated. Part of SECMOL's work is to develop techniques that use alternative energy sources. Ladakh has over 300 sunny days per year and the sun is therefore a reliable source of energy and an alternative to fossil fuels.<ref>[http://framtidsjorden.se/eng/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=419&Itemid=303 Future Earth]</ref> The campus is home to about 70 students and a few staff and volunteers, who live, work and study there.
The campus is maintained, and to a large degree run, by the students themselves on a democratic basis.<ref name="Official Website"/>

== Lok Adalat committee and complaint procedures ==

Lok Adalat settles disputes which can be mutually resolved and mostly relating to [[Matrimonial law|matrimonial]], [[damages]]<ref name="aru lokad ref1" /> and partition suits. The following are the requirements of the cases before Lok Adalat:<ref name="Lok Ref2" />

* Lok Adalat takes up cases which are civil in nature (including marriage, and family disputes) and compoundable criminal cases.<ref name="aru lokad ref1" />
* It accepts cases pending in regular court under their jurisdiction.
* The main condition of the Lok Adalat is that both parties in dispute agree for settlement.
* The court fee paid initially in the court for the complaints/petition is refunded to the parties, as no court fee is chargeable if a matter referred in the Lok Adalat and is resolved with parties agreeing to bind by it.
* Procedural laws and the [[Indian Evidence Act|Evidence Act]] are not strictly followed while assessing claims.
* Decisions are binding on the parties and its order is capable of execution through legal process.

The following types of cases can be admitted in Lok Adalat.<ref name="Mahar Adal Ref1"/>

1. Any dispute or case pending in any court of law in India.

* Criminal offences which are compoundable.<ref name="aru lokad ref1" />
* Cases under section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act.
* Issues relating to recovery of money.
* Issues under Indian Motor Vehicles Act, 1988.
* Issues relating to labour disputes.
* Issues relating to public utility bills like electricity, water etc. excluding Non Compoundable offences.
* Issues relating to Matrimony.

2. Any dispute to be planned to filed in Court but did not come up for hearing in front of it. Following Pre-Litigation cases can also be filed in Lok-Adalat.

* Cases under section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act.
* Cases relating to recovery of money.
* Issues relating to labour disputes.
* Issues relating to public utility bills like electricity, water etc. excluding Non Compoundable offences.
* General Maintenance related disputes.
* Other Miscellaneous cases which are civil disputes, criminal compoundable cases and matrimonial disputes.

However, any legal issue which is not compoundable as per the Indian Legal Systems cannot be taken up in the Lok Adalat.

As the members are presiding Lok Adalat as statutory conciliators and not in judicial capacity they can only persuade the parties to come to a settlement. Sometimes counselling sessions are also held between opposing parties.<ref name="Loka Ref3">{{cite news |title=Lok Adalat disposes of 8.5 lakh cases in a day across Maharashtra |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/mumbai-news/lok-adalat-disposes-of-8-5-lakh-cases-in-a-day-across-maharashtra-101632673899685.html |access-date=29 September 2021 |work=Hindustan Times |date=26 September 2021 |language=en}}</ref>

The main condition of the Lok Adalat is that both parties in dispute agree for settlement and if they are unable to do so, it is referred to the Permanent Lok Adalat for deciding the case provided the case is not related to compoundable offence.

Arunachal Pradesh Lok Adalat, as per Supreme Court judgement, is formed to arrive at a compromise or solution between parties in dispute and hence does not have jurisdiction to go into merits of complaint.<ref name="and lok ref15">{{cite news |title=Lok Adalat can't decide cases on merits|url=https://www.deccanherald.com/national/lok-adalat-cant-decide-cases-on-merits-sc-1041603.html |access-date=25 October 2021 |publisher=deccanherald.com |date=18 October 2021}}</ref>
