==Developmental initiatives as CM (2024 onwards)==
===Hike in expenditure limit of Gram Panchayats===
For a long period, the [[Sarpanch]] Associations of Haryana demanded that the expenditure limit of the Gram Panchayats should be increased as it becomes difficult to implement various developmental initiatives in the villages due to fund crunch. Going by the demands, Saini government in July 2024 implemented the government resolution of increasing the expenditure limit of the Gram Panchayats to implement various developmental initiatives in the villages. The hike in expenditure limit was made from ₹ 5 lakh to ₹ 21 lakh, which enabled Panchayats to garner enough funds without floating e-tenders.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/haryana/haryana-cm-hikes-expenditure-limit-for-gram-panchayats-sarpanch-association-terms-it-misleading/article68360166.ece|title=Haryana CM hikes expenditure limit for Gram Panchayats; Sarpanch association terms it "misleading"|website=The Hindu|accessdate=12 July 2024}}</ref>
===Reduction of tariff on electricity===
Saini government also abolished the minimum charges that were levied on state's electricity consumers and announced that after the abolition, the electricity bill to be paid by the consumers will be solely based on units of electricity consumed. Saini also launched a state subsidy scheme under "Pradhan Mantri Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojna". Under this scheme, Rs 60,000 was sanctioned by central government, for setting up a rooftop solar plant for poor families having an annual income of less than Rs 1,80,000. Saini government thus planned an additional subsidy of Rs 50,000 from the state's exchequer. Since, the cost of installing a rooftop solar plant then was Rs 1,10,000, Saini administration planned to set up these plants completely from the expenses of central and state government, putting no financial burden on the citizens.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.business-standard.com/india-news/no-monthly-minimum-charges-for-domestic-power-consumers-haryana-cm-saini-124061700682_1.html|title=No monthly minimum charges for domestic power consumers: Haryana CM Saini |website=Business Standard|accessdate=12 July 2024}}</ref>
===Affordable housing scheme===
In July 2024, the state cabinet of Haryana under CM Saini launched two affordable housing schemes, one for urban poor and another for rural poor. The housing scheme for urban poor from the Economically Weaker Sections of society was called "Mukhyamantri Seheri Awas Yojna". As per this scheme, the poor families having annual income of up to ₹ 1.80 lakh were eligible for the financial assistance of 1.5 lakh provided by state government for building their own pucca house. The scheme provided 30 square yard plot for each beneficiary family as well to construct their houses.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://realty.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/residential/haryana-cabinet-approves-scheme-to-provide-affordable-housing-for-ews/111704062|title= Haryana cabinet approves scheme to provide affordable housing|website=Economic Times|accessdate=13 July 2024}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/haryana/ahead-of-poll-nayab-singh-saini-govt-rolls-out-two-mega-housing-plans-639198|title=Nayab Singh Saini government rolls out two mega housing scheme|website=The Tribune|accessdate=13 July 2024}}</ref>

== Background ==

=== Princely state of Jammu and Kashmir ===
In 1883, in the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir, hunting was still a sport though restrictions on what could be killed and where game could be hunted had started to take force. In A. E. Ward's ''Sportsman's Guide to Kashmir and Ladak,'' Ward writes, "in Kashmir there exist two or three hundred men who call themselves shikaris, but there are not two dozen who are worthy of the name. In no other part of India have I come across such an arrant collection of impostors." Game included markhor, ibex, ther, serow, goral, burhel, deer, antelope, yak, wolf, sambhur and others.<ref name=":10">{{Cite book|last=Ward|first=A.

=== State and UT of Jammu and Kashmir ===
Against the background of the [[Kashmir conflict]] and tension in the state, government initiatives in the sports sector are promoted specifically trying to draw the youth away from the conflict.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2017-05-16|title=In major push to sports, Jammu and Kashmir government announces a football club for every Valley village|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/jammu-and-kashmir-sports-football-club-village-977337-2017-05-16|access-date=2018-02-04|website=India Today|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2017-01-06|title=Kashmir boys to play in Spanish football club|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/sports/football/story/la-liga-sociedad-deportiva-lenense-proinastur-basit-ahmed-md-asrar-rehbar-953625-2017-01-06|access-date=2018-02-04|website=India Today|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|date=2017-04-27|title=Sports Minister Vijay Goel interacts with youth of Jammu and Kashmir|language=en-US|work=The Indian Express|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/sports/sport-others/sports-minister-goel-interacts-with-youth-of-jammu-and-kashmir-4630936/|access-date=2018-02-04}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|last=Venkatesan|first=S.

Abid Hussain, a sports journalist in Kashmir and founder of the monthly sports magazine ''Kashmir Sports Watch'', in a 2020 interview with [[Mumbai Mirror]] said that sports tournaments in Kashmir are organised by both the army and police, as well as mainstream political parties, even the Hurriyat, and once a player takes part in one of these tournaments, the players along with their families are labelled "pro-India" or "pro-Pakistan" accordingly. Even if a sportsperson plays for India they face stigmatization from separatists.<ref name=":5">{{Cite web|last=Gupta|first=Amit|date=16 October 2020|title=Sports in Kashmir: How 5 journalists run a magazine that focuses on local sports|url=https://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/sport/others/to-be-a-sportsman-in-kashmir-in-these-grim-times-cant-be-easy/articleshow/78693513.cms|access-date=2020-12-05|website=Mumbai Mirror|language=en}}</ref>

On August 5, 1905, Isher Singh was born as '''Gulab Singh''' in the village of Allowal, district [[Patiala district|Patiala]], in [[Punjab, India|Punjab]], to Baba Ram Singh, a respected Nambardar, and Mata Rattan Kaur, both devout Sikhs.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Sant Baba Ishar Singh (Rara Sahib) |url=https://play.sikhnet.com/artist/sant-baba-ishar-singh-rara-sahib |website=Sikh Net}}</ref><ref name=":9">{{Cite web |date=6 August 2020 |title=Never look at anyone's faults - Bachan Sant Isher Singh Ji Rara Sahib |url=https://www.nihungsanthia.com/post/never-look-at-anyone-s-faults-bachan-sant-isher-singh-ji-rara-sahib |website=Nihung Santhia}}</ref><ref name=":10">{{Cite book |last=Singh |first=Giani Mehar |title=Nau Rattan |publisher=Lahore Book Shop |year=2010 |pages=300 |language=Punjabi}}</ref> According to his biographies and Sikh scholars, his birth is believed to have been prophesied on two significant occasions:

# A wandering [[Sadhu]], seeking alms at Sant Isher Singh’s maternal home, bowed before Mata Rattan Kaur and foretold that she would give birth to a great ''[[Brahmgiani]]'' saint.<ref name=":1" />
# A saint presented a rose to Baba Ram Singh, declaring that his son would grow into a great ''Mahapurkh'', who, like the rose, would spread the fragrance of ''Naam'' throughout the world. Inspired by this prophecy, he was named [[Rose|Gulab]], meaning "rose".<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":4">{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpcVRbRlO4w&pp=ygUKI3NhbnRiYWJhYQ== |title=Sant Baba Isher Singh Ji Rara Sahib Podcast {{!}} Gurmukh Series |date=2021-09-05 |last=BoS TV |access-date= |via=YouTube}}</ref>

From a young age, Sant Isher Singh is said to have displayed deep spiritual inclination; he would meditate by a well on the outskirts of his village and immerse himself in the teachings of [[Guru Granth Sahib|Guru Granth Sahib Ji]].<ref name=":3" /> His devotion extended to reading and studying religious scriptures, engaging in Seva (selfless service), meditating, and seeking the company of enlightened saints.<ref>{{Cite news |date=26 August 2017 |title=Sant Ishar Singh Remembered |url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/archive/ludhiana/sant-ishar-singh-remembered-457595 |work=Tribune India |quote=paid obeisance at the sanctum sanctorum to observe the 42nd death anniversary of Sant Ishar Singh Ji Maharaj of Rara Sahib on Frida}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh |url=https://www.santisharsinghji.com/ |website=Sant Ishar Singh}}</ref>

=== Education ===
After receiving three years of education from Sada Nand Sadhu in Allowal, Sant Isher Singh went on to complete his primary education in the villages of Chulela and Manaod.<ref name=":1" /> From the 6th grade onward, he enrolled in Model High School, [[Patiala]], where he did his secondary education.

Sant Isher Singh Ji not only excelled academically, consistently achieving the highest among his peers, but also demonstrated remarkable talent in sports.<ref name=":1" /> A passionate athlete, he was a member of the New Hockey Sports Club and participated in various sports, such as: volleyball, cricket, and basketball. He frequently played hockey alongside soldiers from the Patiala [[Arsenal|''Topkhana'']] and had a keen interest in athletics as well. <ref name=":1" />

== Religious Career ==
At a young age, Sant Isher Singh came into the spiritual company of Sant Attar Singh of Reru Sahib, a renowned Sikh Saint of the early 1900s, and became his devoted student.<ref name=":10" /> Inspired by the saint’s spiritual wisdom and devotion, Gulab Singh embraced Amrit and was given the name ''''Isher'''<nowiki/>'. Under Sant Attar Singh’s guidance, he dedicated himself to ''Seva'' (selfless service) and [[Bhakti|''Bhagati'']] (spiritual devotion).<ref name=":3" /> Sant Kishen Singh, the lifelong companion of Sant Isher Singh, was also a devoted student of Sant Attar Singh.<ref name=":3" /> Like Sant Isher Singh, he is revered as one of the greatest [[Brahmgiani]] saints in Sikh history.<ref name=":7">{{Cite news |title=Ilford's Sikh community pen tribute to 'inspirational' leader Baba Ji |url=https://www.ilfordrecorder.co.uk/news/21175504.ilfords-sikh-community-pen-tribute-inspirational-leader-baba-ji/ |work=Illford Recorder |quote=Baba Ji arrived in England in 1991 after spending 22 years in Rara Sahib, India.

=== Rara Sahib ===
After the passing of Sant Attar Singh, both Sant Isher Singh and Sant Kishan Singh departed from Gurdwara Reru Sahib and eventually settled in the forests of [[Rara Sahib]], a sacred place once visited by the sixth Sikh Guru, [[Guru Hargobind|Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji]].<ref name=":11">{{Cite web |title=Gurdwara Karamsar Rara Sahib |url=https://rarasahib.com/ |website=Rara Sahib}}</ref> Immersing themselves in ''[[Simran]]'' and ''Samadhi'' (deep meditation) for a long time, they transformed the once-remote forest into what is now known as [[Gurdwara Karamsar Rara Sahib|Gurdwara Karamsar]], a revered spiritual center where Sikhs gather to learn, meditate, worship, and engage in ''Seva'' (selfless service).<ref name=":11" /><ref name=":12">{{Cite news |date=25 August 2024 |title=Minister Jouramajra pays obeisance to Sant Baba Ishar Singh |url=https://www.babushahi.com/full-news.php?id=190118&headline=Minister-Jouramajra-pays-obeisance-to-Sant-Baba-Ishar-Singh |work=BabuShashi |quote=He also met Baba Baljinder Singh Rara Sahib and assured full support of the AAP government led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann.He also listened to the 'kirtan' or hymns there.

=== Preaching Sikhi ===
Sant Isher Singh was widely revered among Sikhs not only for his immense ''Seva'' (selfless service) and ''Simran'' (meditative remembrance of God) but also for his dedication to preaching Sikhi, delivering Kirtan, and his literature.<ref name=":2" /><ref name=":9" /> He gained further recognition for leading mass Amrit Sanchar ceremonies, initiating countless individuals into the [[Khalsa]] through [[Amrit Sanchar|Amrit Sanchar]].<ref name=":13">{{Cite book |last1=Virinder |first1=Kalra |title=Beyond Religion in India and Pakistan |last2=Purewal |first2=Navtej |publisher=Bloomsbury Academic |year=2020 |isbn=9781350041752 |pages=110 |quote=Sant Isher Singh gained his reputation for giving amrit [initiation into the Khalsa ceremony] to thousands of devotees and for an absolute belief in the Ad Granth.}}</ref> Between the 1950s and 1970s, he frequently traveled to Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and the United Kingdom as part of his religious services, spreading the teachings of Sikhi and strengthening Sikh communities abroad.<ref name=":4" />

The recordings of Sant Isher Singh’s Katha (spiritual discourses) and Kirtan (devotional hymns) continue to be widely listened to on Youtube and other platforms—not only by everyday Sikhs but also by scholars seeking to deepen their understanding of Sikhi through his teachings and writings.<ref name=":2" /><ref name=":9" /> According to Sant Kulwant Singh, the Jathedar of [[Hazur Sahib]], his life remains a guiding example for Sikhs, and even 50 years after his passing, his spiritual wisdom continues to inspire many to walk the path of Gurmat and embrace Gursikhi.<ref name=":14">{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_9-QmT75So&t=17s |title=Sant Baba Kulwant Singh Ji Hazoor Sahib Wale {{!}} Prasang Sant Isher Singh Ji Rara Sahib Wale |date=2022-08-24 |last=Sahib Media |access-date= |via=YouTube}}</ref>[[File:Hall of Gurdwara Karamsar Rara Sahib.jpg|thumb|Rara Sahib Gurdwara in [[Ludhiana|Ludhiana, Punjab]]]]

==Death==
On August 26, 1975, Sant Isher Singh Ji died in Wolverhampton, England. Having practiced celibacy throughout his life, he neither married nor had children. In his final recording, he is said to have performed ''Kirtan'' of a verse that translated to, ''"Few are thine days, thou hast grown weary, and the body vesture has gone old."''

Fancy punishments

Svetlmat: creating new article

In 1919, during martial law in Punjab, following the [[Jallianwalla Bagh Massacre]], some odd humiliating punishments were administered by the [[British Indian Army]], dubbed '''fancy punishments''' by the Hunter Inquiry into the disturbances.

==Background==
Martial law was introduced in Punjab at midnight between 15 and 16 April 1919 and backdated to 30 March on 21 April by the Viceroy, at the request of [[Michael O'Dwyer]].<ref name=Collett2006>{{cite book |last1=Collett |first1=Nigel|author-link=Nigel Collett |title=The Butcher of Amritsar: General Reginald Dyer |date=2006 |publisher=A&C Black |isbn=978-1-85285-575-8 |page=275 |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XuQC5pgzCw4C&pg=PA275|language=en|chapter=17.

==Punishments==
Designed to humiliate, several punishments, dubbed as "fancy" in the ''Disorders Inquiry Committee, 1919–1920: Report'' (Hunter Inquiry), were invented by [[Arnold Chadwick Doveton|A. C.

'''Robert Fortune''' (16 September 1812 – 13 April 1880)<ref>{{cite EB1911|wstitle=Fortune, Robert}}</ref> was a [[Scotland|Scottish]] botanist, [[plant collecting|plant hunter]] and traveller, best known for introducing around 250 new ornamental plants, mainly from [[China]], but also [[Japan]], into the gardens of Britain, Australia, and North America. He also played a role in the development of the [[history of tea in India|tea industry in India]] in the 19th century. He also imported [[Castanea crenata|Japanese chestnuts]] into the United States, which led to the introduction of [[chestnut blight]] to the country 24 years after his death.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Tredici |first=Peter Del |date=2017-09-01 |title=The introduction of Japanese plants into North America |url=https://go.gale.com/ps/i.do?id=GALE%7CA506035732&sid=googleScholar&v=2.1&it=r&linkaccess=abs&issn=00068101&p=AONE&sw=w&userGroupName=anon~eff03900&aty=open-web-entry |journal=The Botanical Review |language=English |volume=83 |issue=3 |pages=215–253}}</ref>

==Life==
Fortune was born in 1812 in the small settlement or "fermtoun" of Kelloe in the parish of [[Edrom]], [[Berwickshire]].<ref>{{Cite DNB |wstitle= Fortune, Robert |volume= 20 |last= Boulger |first= George Simonds |author-link= George Simonds Boulger |pages = 50-51 |short=1}}</ref> After completing his apprenticeship, he was then employed at Moredun House, just to the south of [[Edinburgh]], before then moving on to the [[Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh]]. In 1840, he and his family moved to London to take up a position at the [[Royal Horticultural Society|Horticultural Society of London]]'s garden at [[Chiswick]]. Following the [[Treaty of Nanking]] in 1842, in early 1843, he was commissioned by the Horticultural Society to undertake a three-year plant collection expedition to southern China.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Lu|first=Di|date=2026|title=Rethinking the Legitimacy of British Botanizing in Late Qing China (1840-1912)|journal=Journal of British Studies|volume=65|pages=e9|doi=10.1017/jbr.2026.10188|doi-access=free}}</ref>
[[File:Map of Fortune's Wanderings in China.jpg|thumb|Map of Fortune's Wanderings in China]]
His travels resulted in the introduction to Europe, Australia, and North America of many flowers and plants. His most famous accomplishment was the successful introduction, although it was not the first by any means, of Chinese tea plants (''[[Camellia sinensis]]''), along with skilled tea makers, from China to India in 1848 on behalf of the [[British East India Company]]. Robert Fortune worked in China for several years in the period from 1843 to 1861.
[[File:Wuyi Shan Fengjing Mingsheng Qu 2012.08.23 09-22-49.jpg|thumb|The remote [[Wuyi Mountains]] in Fujian Province, one of the important tea regions to which Fortune travelled.]]
Similar to other European travellers of the period, such as [[Walter Henry Medhurst|Walter Medhurst]], Fortune disguised himself as a Chinese merchant during several, but not all, of his journeys beyond the newly established [[treaty port]] areas. Not only was Fortune's purchase of tea plants reportedly forbidden by the [[Chinese government]] of the time, but his travels were also beyond the allowable [[day's journey]] from the European treaty ports. Fortune travelled to some areas of China that had seldom been visited by Europeans, including remote areas of [[Fujian]], [[Guangdong]], and [[Jiangsu]] provinces.

Fortune employed many means to obtain plants and seedlings from local tea growers, although this was some 150 years before international biodiversity laws recognised state ownership of such natural resources. He is also known for his use of [[Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward]]'s portable [[Wardian case]]s to sustain the plants. It is also widely reported that he took skilled workers on contract to India who would facilitate the production of tea in the plantations of the [[East India Company]]. With the exception of a few plants that survived in established Indian gardens, most of the Chinese tea plants Fortune introduced in the northwestern provinces of India perished. The other reason for the failure in India was that the British preference and fashion was for a strong dark tea brew, which was best made from the local [[Assam tea|Assam subspecies]] (''Camellia sinensis'' var. ''assamica'') and not the selection that Fortune had made in China. The technology and knowledge that was brought over from China was, however, instrumental in the later flourishing of the Indian tea industry in Assam and [[Sri Lankan tea|Sri Lanka]].<ref>

In subsequent journeys, he visited Formosa ([[Taiwan]]) and Japan, and described the culture of the [[silkworm]] and the manufacture of rice. He introduced many trees, shrubs, and flowers to the West, including the [[cumquat]], a climbing double yellow [[rose]] ('Fortune's Double Yellow' (syn. Gold of Ophir) which proved a failure in England's climate), and many varieties of tree [[peony|peonies]], [[azalea]]s and [[chrysanthemum]]s. A climbing white rose that he brought back from China in 1850, believed to be a natural cross between ''[[Rosa laevigata]]'' and ''[[Rosa banksiae|R. banksiae]]'', was dubbed ''R. fortuniana'' (syn. ''R. fortuneana'') in his honour. This rose, too, proved a failure in England, preferring warmer climates. Today, both of these roses are still widely grown by antique rose fanciers in mild winter regions. ''Rosa fortuniana'' also serves as a valuable [[rootstock]] in Australia and the southern regions of the United States.

He related his travels in a series of books. He died in London in 1880, and is buried in [[Brompton Cemetery]].

== History ==
[[File:Inaugration of the Salar Jung Museum by Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, c. 1951.jpg|thumb|Inauguration of the Salar Jung Museum by Prime Minister [[Jawaharlal Nehru]], c. 1951]]
A nobleman of the [[Salar Jung family]] of Hyderabad, [[Nawab]] [[Mir Yousuf Ali Khan, Salar Jung III]] (1889–1949) served as [[Prime Minister of Hyderabad]] during the [[Nizam]]'s rule in [[Hyderabad State|Hyderabad state]]. He spent a substantial amount of his income, over a period of thirty-five years, collecting artefacts from all across the world.

After the Nawab died in 1949, the collections were left behind in his ancestral palace [[Dewan Devdi|Diwan Devdi]]. The collection was formerly exhibited there as a private museum, named Salar Jung Museum, which was inaugurated by [[Jawaharlal Nehru]] on 16 December 1951.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.india-seminar.com/2008/585/585_rani_sarma.htm|title=585 Rani Sarma, Diwan Deodi|website=www.india-seminar.com|access-date=2018-08-06|archive-date=8 August 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180808101737/http://www.india-seminar.com/2008/585/585_rani_sarma.htm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://artsandculture.google.com/exhibit/AgJyLZ85CUb4Jw|title=Treasures of Salar Jung Museum - Salar Jung Museum|access-date=6 August 2018|archive-date=20 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181220124710/https://artsandculture.google.com/exhibit/AgJyLZ85CUb4Jw|url-status=live}}</ref>

Old timers believe that the present collection constitutes only half of the original art wealth collected by the Nawab. His employees siphoned off part of it, since the Nawab depended upon his staff to keep a vigil.{{citation needed|date=June 2022}}

The state decided to shift the museum to a new building and after a design competition, [[Mohammed Fayazuddin]] was selected as the architect of the new building.<ref>{{cite book |title=A Guide to Architecture in Hyderabad, Deccan, India |last=Khalidi |first=Omar |year=2009 |url=https://libraries.mit.edu/img/libs/rotch/HyderabadGuide_2009.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200313131458/https://libraries.mit.edu/img/libs/rotch/HyderabadGuide_2009.pdf |archive-date=2020-03-13 |url-status=dead |pages=238}}</ref>

The foundation stone was laid by Jawaharlal Nehru in 1963, and in 1968, the museum shifted to its present location at [[Dar-ul-Shifa]], and is administered by a board of trustees with the [[governor of Telangana]] as ''ex officio'' chairperson under the Salar Jung Museum Act of 1961. Some more art pieces were lost or stolen during the shifting of the museum from [[Dewan Devdi]] to the present site.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://7wondersofhyderabad.com/salarjung-museum/salar-jung-museum-2.html|title=Old timer's belief|access-date=18 March 2008|archive-date=2 October 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181002235643/http://7wondersofhyderabad.com/salarjung-museum/salar-jung-museum-2.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

In 2003, the museum signed a [[memorandum of understanding]] with the [[National Mission for Manuscripts]], and was declared a manuscript conservation centre.

In 2006, a fire broke out in an auditorium in the museum premises. However, it was quickly extinguished and none of the artefacts were damaged.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.arabnews.com/node/288798|title=Major Fire Breaks Out in Salar Jung Museum|date=2006-11-04|work=Arab News|access-date=2018-10-18|language=en|archive-date=16 November 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221116000107/https://www.arabnews.com/node/288798|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Fire-at-world-famous-Salarjung-Museum/articleshow/303553.cms|title=Fire at world-famous Salarjung Museum - Times of India|work=The Times of India|access-date=2018-10-18|archive-date=19 October 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181019070353/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Fire-at-world-famous-Salarjung-Museum/articleshow/303553.cms|url-status=live}}</ref> After the incident, fire safety facilities were upgraded.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-andhrapradesh/latest-fire-safety-system-for-salar-jung-museum-soon/article3028395.ece|title=Latest fire safety system for Salar Jung Museum soon|date=2006-12-02|work=The Hindu|access-date=2018-10-18|language=en-IN|issn=0971-751X|archive-date=16 November 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221116003124/https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-andhrapradesh/latest-fire-safety-system-for-salar-jung-museum-soon/article3028395.ece|url-status=live}}</ref>

==History==
The mosque dates from 1513; and construction was carried out over 25 years.<ref name="Singh2009" /> It is one of the most notable monuments built by Sultan [[Mahmud Begada]]. The [[Mughal architecture]] is said to have drawn from the architecture of the Sultanates, which is a blend of [[Jainism|Jain]] religious connotations and workmanship with Muslim ethos; the large domes are indicative of such a mix.<ref name=Fact>{{Cite web|url=https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1101 |title=United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Fact Sheet|accessdate=24 September 2012|publisher= United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization}}</ref><ref name=Advisory/><ref name="Ruggles 2009"/>{{sfn| Bombay |1879|pp=304-309}} Restoration works were carried out in the 1890s.<ref name="CircleDept1897">{{cite book|author=Bombay India General Dept|title=Archaeology, Progress Report|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9MksAQAAMAAJ|accessdate=1 October 2012|year=1897|publisher=Archaeological Survey of India.

The '''Irish Film Classification Office''' ('''IFCO''') ({{langx|ga|Oifig Aicmithe Scannán na hÉireann, OASÉ}}) is the organisation responsible for films, television programmes, and some video game classification and censorship within [[Republic of Ireland|Ireland]]. Where restrictions are placed by the IFCO, they are legally binding.

Prior to 21 July 2008, the office was branded as the ''Irish Film Censor's Office'', and was previously known as simply the ''Film Censor's Office'', or, in legal references, the office of the ''Official Censor of Films'', which was the official title of the head of the office prior to that date. The head of the office is the '''Director of Film Classification'''.

==Background==
[[File:IFCO 1962cover.jpg|thumb|1965 [[Cover (philately)|envelope]] sent to local office of [[20th Century Fox]] with '''certifying cachet''' of the Film Censor's Office]]
The Irish Film Censor's Office was set up in 1923, under the Censorship of Films Act 1923.<ref>{{Cite ISB|title=Censorship of Films Act 1923|year=1923|number=23|section=1|schedno=|stitle=Establishment of office of Official Censor of Films|parl=ifs|date=16 July 1923}}</ref> This law was amended in [http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/1925/en/act/pub/0021/index.html 1925], [http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/1930/en/act/pub/0013/index.html 1930], [http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/1970/en/act/pub/0007/index.html 1970], and [http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/1992/en/act/pub/0029/index.html 1992]; and a substantial revision of the law occurred in the [https://web.archive.org/web/20051206051939/http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/1989_22.html Video Recordings Act, 1989] which extended the remit of the office to the regulation of the video importation and supply industry. On 21 July 2008 the ''Civil Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2008'' came into force. Section 70 changes some of the provisions with regard censorship of films in the State. Section 71 renames the Film Censor as the Director of Film Classification and consequent to this, the Irish Film Censor's Office became the Irish Film Classification Office.

==Staff==
The office consists of 21 staff members:
*Acting Director of Film Classification – George Sinclair
*Deputy Director – Vacant
*10 Assistant Classifiers
*Office Manager
*6 [[Civil service of the Republic of Ireland|Civil Servants]] from the [[Department of Justice, Home Affairs and Migration]]
*2 Projectionists

The 10 assistant classifiers are paid €168 per day and are entitled to claim expenses on top of this. According to a [[Freedom of information legislation#Ireland|freedom of information]] request granted to the [[Sunday Times (Ireland edition)|Irish edition of the ''Sunday Times'']] the assistant classifiers claimed €306,683 in fees and €52,569 of expenses in 2007; €339,608 in fees and €49,898 of expenses in 2008; and €162,263 in fees and €21,401 of expenses for the first half of 2009. This equates to a payment of approximately €60 per film rated.<ref name="IST IFCO info 1">{{cite news|url=http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/ireland/article6982430.ece|title=Ex-politicians paid €40,000 to watch films|newspaper=[[The Sunday Times|Sunday Times]]|first=Colin|last=Coyle|date=10 January 2010|access-date=26 November 2014|archive-date=19 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211219022459/https://www.thetimes.co.uk/|url-status=dead}}</ref>

==Certificates==
===Introduction and early history===
Before 1965, there were no certificates and all films were tailored for a general audience, resulting in several bans and cuts (no doubt also due to extremely conservative societal standards). As of 2004, 2,500 theatrical films had been banned and about 11,000 cut, largely from before the overhaul.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Rockett|first1=Kevin|title=Irish film censorship – an outline account|url=http://www.ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/lookupreports2/AA073005F7A0F95780256F020055DD28/$File/a+history.pdf?openelement|website=Irish Film Classification Office|access-date=8 March 2018|archive-date=8 May 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180508142718/http://www.ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/lookupreports2/AA073005F7A0F95780256F020055DD28/$File/a+history.pdf?openelement|url-status=live}}</ref>

Public controversy over the office's harsh methods came to a head in late 1964 – in 1963 alone, 31 films were rejected and 156 were cut.<ref>{{cite news|title=Censorship of films|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=11 February 1964}}</ref> Critically acclaimed hits were no exception – ''[[Dr. Strangelove]]'' was cut, including Ripper's reference to Communists trying to "sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids" with fluoridated water, and Irish-shot medical drama [[Of Human Bondage (1964 film)|''Of Human Bondage'']] was banned due to the heroine dying of syphilis.<ref name=censor21111964>{{cite news|title=End of "thaw" in film censorship?

In 1964, [[Brian Lenihan Snr|Brian Lenihan]], the newly appointed [[Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration|Minister for Justice]], met with the Cinema and Theatre Association in November to consider their views<ref>{{cite news|title=Protest over severe film censorship|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=28 November 1964}}</ref> and even proposed to view recently banned films, including ''Of Human Bondage''.<ref name=lenihan30111964>{{cite news|title=Lenihan intervenes in film censorship: Will see banned films|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=30 November 1964}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Minister to see banned film|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=4 December 1964}}</ref> On 28 November, Lenihan announced he'd be appointing a new Film Appeals Board and would be able to reform censorship without changing existing legislation<ref name=lenihan30111964 /> – film correspondent Fergus Linehan pointed out that the 1923 Act explicitly supported age certification:<ref name=censor21111964 />

Lenihan announced the new Appeals board, which came into effect on 18 January 1965.<ref>{{cite news|title=Films appeal board announced|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=9 January 1965}}</ref> Their main task was to begin enforcing limited certificates (alongside the general certificate).<ref name=historicaldocumentbook>{{cite book|last1=Flynn|first1=Roderick|last2=Brereton|first2=Patrick|title=Historical Dictionary of Irish Cinema|url=https://archive.org/details/historicaldictio00flyn|url-access=limited|date=30 July 2007|publisher=Scarecrow Press|isbn=978-0810855571|page=[https://archive.org/details/historicaldictio00flyn/page/n88 53]}}</ref> which were as follows, according to the Appeals Board chairman:<ref>{{cite news|last1=Maguire|first1=Conor P.|title=Film censorship in Ireland: Appeals chairman's views|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=12 October 1966}}</ref>

=== Home video certificates ===
These were introduced on 1 September 1994:<ref>{{cite ISB|year=1994|type=si|num=134|title=Video Recordings Act 1989 (Supply Certificate and Labelling) Regulations 1994|date=12 May 1994|access-date=9 February 2019|archive-date=9 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190209232021/http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/1994/si/134/made/en/print}}</ref>

* '''G''' – Fit for viewing by persons generally
* '''12RA''' – Fit for viewing by persons generally, but in the case of a child under 12 years, only in the company of a responsible adult.
* '''15''' – Fit for viewing by persons aged 15 or more.
* '''18''' – Fit for viewing by persons aged 18 or more.

From that date it was an offence to trade uncertified videos, which carried fines of up to £1000 and a maximum sentence of three years.<ref>{{cite news|title=New labels to show video's suitability|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=31 August 1994}}</ref> Additional rates came in at £180 per rental title, £80 per sale title and £20 per advert/trailer. This limited the market, especially for London distributors whose releases previously went to Ireland automatically.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Foley|first1=Michael|title=Additional cost limits Ireland's video choice|newspaper=The Irish Times|date=27 February 1995}}</ref>

In 1996, the 12RA certificate was officially replaced by PG and 12,<ref>{{cite ISB|year=1996|type=si|num=407|title=Video Recordings Act 1989 (Supply Certificate and Labelling) (Amendment) Regulations 1996|date=20 December 1996|access-date=9 February 2019|archive-date=9 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190209232517/http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/1996/si/407/made/en/print?q=video+recordings+act|url-status=live}}</ref> although releases still used it into the 2000s.<ref name=filmogs12RA03>{{cite web|title=Filmogs – The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers|url=https://www.filmo.gs/release/42578-the-lord-of-the-rings-the-two-towers|access-date=9 February 2019|archive-date=1 October 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181001142510/https://www.filmo.gs/release/42578-the-lord-of-the-rings-the-two-towers|url-status=live}}</ref>

The current certificates for home video formats such as DVD and Blu-ray that are issued are:

* '''G''' – General: Suitable for all
* '''PG''' – Suitable for general viewing, but parents are advised to watch with children younger than 12 years old.
* '''12''' – Suitable for people aged 12 and over, and not to be supplied to someone below that age.
* '''15''' – Suitable for people aged 15 and over, and not to be supplied to someone below that age.
* '''18''' – Suitable for people aged 18 and over, and not to be supplied to someone below that age.

A retired certificate only used on home video is:

* '''12RA''' (no longer issued) Not suitable for people aged younger than 12 unless they view with an adult, and not to be supplied to someone below that age. The "RA" stands for "Responsible Adult". Retired around 2003 (officially replaced in 1996).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/lookupreports2/1C09242E19D2559D80256EC1005CC251/$File/Film+Censors+Report+.pdf?openelement|title=1686 – Film Censors Report 2003|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160315120336/http://www.ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/lookupreports2/1C09242E19D2559D80256EC1005CC251/$File/Film+Censors+Report+.pdf?openelement|url-status=dead|archive-date=15 March 2016|date=15 March 2016}}</ref><ref name=filmogs12RA03 />

=== Standard cinematic-home video certification crossover ===
This is the crossover, or change, in a certificate that will happen when a film which has been shown in cinemas, is released on home video, but this only applies if:

* There is no extra material (bonuses, trailers, etc.) which is not appropriate to the main feature, and would cause it to receive a higher certificate.
* The film has not been edited (material taken out, etc.) in a way which would cause the main feature to receive a lower certificate.

The standard crossovers are as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
!Cinema certificate
!Home video certificate
|-
| G || G
|-
| PG || PG
|-
| 12A || 12
|-
| 15A || 15
|-
| 16 || 15/18
|-
| 18 || 18
|}
Note: The certificate "12RA" did not have a corresponding cinematic certificate, and thus, did not have a standard crossover (certain 12A films received the certificate before it was withdrawn in the mid-2000s).

If the two rules above apply to a film's home video release, then, generally, it will be re-rated completely, ''but'' this does not mean certificates will always coincide for all formats, as occasionally (usually the DVD or Blu-ray) one edition will contain extra features while the other does not, causing one to be re-rated, and the other to take a Standard Crossover (for instance, a film which received a 15A certificate in cinemas may have received a 15 certificate on VHS but an 18 certificate on DVD; usually DVDs in these circumstances would carry a label on the reverse, informing viewers of this).

====Home video====
[[File:Irish film censor dvd stamp.jpg|thumb|right|A censor's stamp on a 2004 DVD]]
Until February 2009, the home video certificates were always the certificate surrounded by an octagon, followed by the words "FILM CENSOR'S OFFICE" and "OIFIG SCRÚDÓIR NA SCANNÁN", which were then surrounded by another, larger, octagon. The colours were cyan and white, but the order they appear in varied. Although the Office was renamed in July 2008, these continued to bear the old name until February 2009, when they were altered to read "IRISH FILM CLASSIFICATION OFFICE" and its Irish equivalent.

===Video games===
Unlike the [[British Board of Film Classification|BBFC]] in the UK, which prior to PEGI ratings becoming legally enforceable in the UK on 30 July 2012 rated video games that met certain criteria (such as very graphic violence), the Irish Film Censor's Office does not usually rate video games, leaving ratings to [[Pan European Game Information|PEGI]], unless the game's content is deemed prohibitable under section 3 (1) of the Act.

IFCO ratings for video games were introduced in 2001 and retired in 2003. Although the Silent Hill Collection was released in 2006, it contained re-releases of the [[Silent Hill 2|second]] and [[Silent Hill 3|third]] games, which were rated and released in 2001 and 2003 respectively.

Only 9 games have ever been submitted to and rated by the IFCO:

Despite the lack of legally binding ratings, most (if not all) video game retailers attempt to prohibit the sale of PEGI 18+ rated games to people under the age of 18, and prior to PEGI ratings the same was done with BBFC 18 ratings on games (the same packaging is usually used in games sold in Ireland as in the UK).

The only prohibition notice for a video game was issued for ''[[Manhunt 2]]'' in 2007.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/web/news?opendocument&news=yes&type=graphic |title=Manhunt 2 video game prohibited |website=Irish Film Classification Office |access-date=19 June 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071120192726/http://www.ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/web/news?opendocument&news=yes&type=graphic |archive-date=20 November 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

== Appeals ==
All decisions made with regard to certification, may be appealed for up to 6 months after the certificate is initially issued. An appeal is issued to the Classification of Films Appeal Board.

Works may also be submitted for re-classification after seven years since the original certification have passed ('''not''' an appeal ''per se'', but rather seen as an update of classification based on current standards).

A recent example of a (failed) appeal is ''[[The First Purge]]'', which received an 18 certificate for ''strong bloody violence, sustained threat and disturbing scenes''.<ref>http://www.ifco.ie/website/IFCO/ifcoweb.nsf/SearchViewFilm/671B1E91BB983227802582C100301FF2?OpenDocument&OpenUp=True {{dead link|date=November 2019}}</ref> The distributor ([[Universal Pictures]]) argued the case for a 16 certificate:
{{Quote box
|quote = We would contend that the last two films in the franchise, in particular, are similar in tone and viscerality to the current film.{{ref|firsttwo|A}}

''The First Purge'' is a thematic continuation of how a group of people must fight to survive a night of government-sanctioned mayhem. Similar to ''Anarchy'' and ''Election Year'', ''The First Purge'' features intensely depicted violence and some gory imagery but has contextual justification. There are sustained scenes of threat in which the characters are terrorised by masked killers but the guidelines for a 16 classification on the IFCO suggest that strong horror and sustained threat may be acceptable in this category.

The violence is presented in an extremely stylised way in an equivalent manner to the earlier films in the franchise as well as similar titles like ''[[Atomic Blonde]]'' (16), ''[[John Wick (film)|John Wick]]'' (16) and ''[[John Wick: Chapter 2]]'' (16).

After first being viewed on 15 June, it was re-viewed on 21 June when the Appeal Board stuck by the original decision.

Ger Connolly wrote back, explaining the decision in greater detail:
{{Quote box
|quote = This is the fourth film of this particular franchise. As can sometimes be the case with long-running horror franchises, in evolution they become more violent and explicit to maintain the interest of their audience. This is, in my opinion, the case with ''The Purge'' series of films. The first instalment, essentially a 'home invasion' thriller, was classified 15A. The next two (''The Purge: Anarchy'' and ''The Purge: Election Year'') broadened out the story and intensified in terms of body count and the graphic way in which some of the violence was depicted. Both were classified 16 on cinema release. ''The Purge: Election Year'' was classified 18 on DVD release. In most cases films classified 16 theatrically are classified 15 on DVD release. This classification is more restrictive than 15A. In rarer cases the DVD classification is increased to 18 to reflect the level of content.

''The First Purge'' intensifies the extremely graphic violence – the violence here is brutal and sustained. It also contained a scene of sexual assault as well as scenes of very overt brutal racist violence against African Americans with the attackers in full Ku Klux Klan regalia. These were not present in the other instalments.

I suggest that the context here is not sufficient to warrant a 16 classification due to the extremely brutal and frenzied acts of violence combined with racial hatred and that ''The First Purge'' is appropriately classified at 18.

==Refusals and bans==
Films may be refused a certificate, e.g. on grounds of obscenity. Such films may not be shown in public cinemas or sold in shops, but are not ''ipso facto'' banned and have been shown at film festivals and [[art film|art house]] clubs such as the [[Irish Film Theatre]] and [[Irish Film Institute]]. These may also show films which have not been submitted for certification, as the submission fee may be prohibitive if a film is screened only a few times at a small venue.

Prohibitions and revocations, with justification, are listed in the official gazette, {{lang|ga|[[Iris Oifigiúil]]}}, under the headings of '''PROHIBITION ORDER''' and '''REVOCATION ORDER'''.

Despite the recommendations in the 2000 review of certification that no further films be banned, bans are still occasionally issued, although usually overturned on appeal. ''[[Boy Eats Girl]]'', a 2005 movie, was initially banned, with the option of a cut being provided to the producers. On appeal, the film was passed uncut, and granted a 15A rating,<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/boy-will-get-to-eat-girl-after-all-1.476854|title=Boy will get to eat girl after all|first=Donald|last=Clarke|newspaper=The Irish Times|access-date=26 September 2018|archive-date=19 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211219022510/https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/boy-will-get-to-eat-girl-after-all-1.476854|url-status=live}}</ref> although the video certificate was raised to 18.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/lookupreports2/D2E379DFC484D98E802571AB0039E72B/$File/2005%20Annual%20Report.pdf?openelement |title=Annual Report of the Official Censor of Films for 2005 |website=Irish Film Classification Office |access-date=26 September 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171114121206/http://ifco.ie/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/lookupreports2/D2E379DFC484D98E802571AB0039E72B/$File/2005%20Annual%20Report.pdf?openelement |archive-date=14 November 2017 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Movies which are never submitted for cinema release in Ireland are occasionally banned on attempted video releases, although only one such order was made in 2004, banning the pornographic ''Anabolic Initiations 5'', with the appeals board upholding the censor's order. One order was issued in 2005, reiterating the ban on ''[[Deep Throat (film)|Deep Throat]]''. The only order in 2006 banned the pornographic film ''Steal Runaway''.

== Criticism ==
{{more citations needed|section|date=November 2019}}
Like many systems of entertainment classification, the IFCO has received criticism for several decisions they have made in the past. The board has been described as too zealous and conservative. Many titles that receive 15 certificates from the BBFC are rated 18 by the IFCO. DVD examples include ''[[Kick-Ass (film)|Kick-Ass]]''<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ifco.ie/en/ifco/pages/1D0A22A500736BA7|title=Kick-Ass (2010)|website=Irish Film Classification Office|access-date=31 October 2019|archive-date=31 October 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191031171502/http://ifco.ie/en/ifco/pages/1D0A22A500736BA7|url-status=live}}</ref> and ''[[Black Swan (film)|Black Swan]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ifco.ie/en/ifco/pages/2819C5B30078DC14|title=Black Swan (2011)|website=Irish Film Classification Office|access-date=31 October 2019|archive-date=31 October 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191031171505/http://ifco.ie/en/ifco/pages/2819C5B30078DC14|url-status=live}}</ref> Rarer cinema examples (which bypass the 16 rating) include ''[[Free Fire (film)|Free Fire]]''<ref name="auto"/> and ''[[You Were Never Really Here]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ifco.ie/en/ifco/pages/3922AF0E0050DC8D|title=You Were Never Really Here (2018)|website=Irish Film Classification Office|access-date=31 October 2019|archive-date=31 October 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191031171500/http://ifco.ie/en/ifco/pages/3922AF0E0050DC8D|url-status=live}}</ref>

However, the IFCO are more lenient with strong language than the BBFC are, especially with very strong language (e.g. 'cunt').

Amongst the women's events, Bhaker qualified for the final of the [[Shooting at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Women's 10 metre air pistol|women's 10 m air pistol]] event after she placed third in the qualifiers. In the final held on 28 July, she started well to be placed second after the first series of shots but dropped down the order after a poor second series. She finished with a score of 221.7 to secure a bronze medal, India's first at the current Olympics. It was also the fifth shooting medal and the first from an India woman shooter.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://olympics.com/en/news/paris-2024-olympics-shooting-manu-bhaker-10m-air-pistol-bronze-medal|title=Paris 2024: Manu Bhaker wins bronze; becomes first Indian woman to win shooting medal at Olympics|date=27 July 2024|access-date=1 August 2024|work=Olympics.com|archive-date=30 July 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240730050431/https://olympics.com/en/news/paris-2024-olympics-shooting-manu-bhaker-10m-air-pistol-bronze-medal|url-status=live}}</ref>

Amateur radio licence categories in India

2024-10-15T18:36:27Z

Svetlmat: cleaned up article additionally and improved wording

{{Short description|Specific categories of amateur radio licencing in India}}
The 1978 regulations established five categories of '''Amateur radio licence''' in India. The regulations were revised in 2009 and now only two categories are issued.

==Categories in 1978 ==
The [[Indian Wireless Telegraphs (Amateur Service) Rules, 1978]] listed five licence categories:

# Advanced Amateur Wireless Telegraph Station License
# Amateur Wireless Telegraph Station License, Grade–I
# Amateur Wireless Telegraph Station License, Grade–II
# Restricted Amateur Wireless Telegraph Station License
# Short Wave Listener's Amateur Wireless Telegraph Station License

To obtain a licence in the first four categories, candidates had to pass the Amateur Station Operator's Certificate examination.<ref name="amrules1978">Section 7 {{cite web|url=http://www.arsi.info/images/wpc78full.pdf|title=The Indian Wireless Telegraphs (Amateur Radio) Rules, 1978|year=1979|work=Ministry of Communications, Government of India|publisher=Controller of Publications, Civil Lines, New Delhi|pages=34|accessdate=2008-08-03|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081010160640/http://www.arsi.info/images/wpc78full.pdf|archive-date=2008-10-10|url-status=dead}}</ref> This examination is held monthly in [[Delhi]], [[Mumbai]], [[Kolkata]] and [[Chennai]], every two months in [[Ahmedabad]], [[Nagpur]] and [[Hyderabad, India|Hyderabad]], and every four months in some smaller cities.<ref name="wpc-ax2">Appendix II {{cite web|url=http://www.arsi.info/images/wpc78full.pdf|title=The Indian Wireless Telegraphs (Amateur Radio) Rules, 1978|year=1979|work=Ministry of Communications, Government of India|publisher=Controller of Publications, Civil Lines, New Delhi|pages=34|accessdate=2008-08-03|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081010160640/http://www.arsi.info/images/wpc78full.pdf|archive-date=2008-10-10|url-status=dead}}</ref> The examination consists of two 50-mark written sections: Radio theory and practice, Regulations; and a practical test consisting of a demonstration of [[Morse code]] proficiency in both sending and receiving.<ref name="wpc-ax1">Annexure III, Appendix I, Section 2.3 {{cite web|url=http://www.arsi.info/images/wpc78full.pdf|title=The Indian Wireless Telegraphs (Amateur Radio) Rules, 1978|year=1979|work=Ministry of Communications, Government of India|publisher=Controller of Publications, Civil Lines, New Delhi|pages=34|accessdate=2008-08-03|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081010160640/http://www.arsi.info/images/wpc78full.pdf|archive-date=2008-10-10|url-status=dead}}</ref> After passing the examination, the candidate must then clear Local Police and Central Home Department verification.
