The United Nations COP26 summit on Climate Change has been postponed

The United Nations COP26 summit on Climate Change has been postponed

until next year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The conference was set to take place in Glasgow in November 2020. The rescheduled dates of the summit for 2021 has not been announced yet.

The decision to postpone the summit was taken by the COP Bureau of UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Conventions on Climate Change), with the United Kingdom and its Italian Partners.

Some 30,000 people including 200 world leaders were due to attend the 10-day conference for the crucial talk to halt the rising global temperature.

Statement by COP26 President Alok Sharma (-Designate and secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy )

In his statement regarding the rescheduling of COP26, Alok Sharma spoke about the current global challenge that the world is facing. He stated that in this fight against COVID-19, the countries are rightly focusing their efforts on saving lives. He further talked about the need to tackle the climate crisis and said that he looked forward to agreeing to a new date for the conference.

UN Climate Change Executive Secretary Patricia Espinosa

The UN Climate Change Executive Secretary termed COVID-19 as a threat that humanity is facing today but also stated that we cannot forget that climate change is the biggest threat.

Minister Carolina Schmidt, COP25 President

The president of COP25 termed the postponement of the climate summit a needed measure to protect delegates and observers.

COP (Conference of Parties)

COP is a supreme-decision making body of the United Nations Climate Change Convention. One of the key tasks of COP is to review the emission inventories and national communications that are submitted by the parties. The COP meets every year unless the parties involved in the convention decides otherwise.

COP24 in 2018 focused on climate-friendly modern solutions like electromobility for sustainable urban development while also discussed the major requirement of a major shift in society in the world economy.

COP25 in 2019 which was held in Madrid ended on a rather disappointing note. In one of the longest climate talks, there were no concrete plans regarding the growing climatic urgency.

What is a census?

1. Census is a continuous process and an exercise conducted across the length and breadth of the country.

2. It started during the British time in 1931 and since then every 10 years, the government of India conducts census.

3. The process tries to ascertain the socio-economic status of inhabitants of the house through the house listing process.

4. The process will also get information on the facilities used by the people.

5. Census also studies the rural-urban migration, availability of jobs in different cities, capability of mega cities to handle the influx of people for jobs.

Why is Census 2021 important?

1. Census 2021 will cover 31 questions decided by the Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India.

2. The questions range from access to latrines to the internet, number of inhabitants, ownership status, etc.

3. It helps the government in formulating its policies for the people.

4. It gives an idea about the latest size of the population of the country.

5. It shows India’s position in terms of prosperity level, male-female proportion of each state and section of population that are benefitting/lagging behind since after 1947.

VAJRA, the sixth coast guard Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV-6) was launched in Chennai on February 27, 2020 to enhance coastal security.

VAJRA, the sixth coast guard Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV-6) was launched in Chennai on February 27, 2020 to enhance coastal security. The Minister of State for Shipping(I/C), Mansukh Mandaviya was the Chief Guest of the launch ceremony.

The sixth Offshore Patrol Vessel- 'Yard 45006 VAJRA’ was launched in the sea for the first time. While addressing the occasion, Mansukh Mandaviya congratulated M/s L&T Shipbuilding for the timely delivery of the vessel and stated that it will be used for day and night patrolling.

The vessel is sixth in the series of seven offshore patrol vessel projects being designed and developed by Larsen and Toubro Shipbuilding under the union government’s ‘Make in India’ policy.

Objective

 The vessel is expected to strengthen the Indian Coast Guard’s efforts to secure the vast Indian coastline measuring about 7500 km and the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) measuring over 20 lakh sq km. VAJRA will also strengthen the coast guard’s efforts to ensure safe passage to almost one lakh merchant ships transiting through the Indian waters every year for global trade.

• VAJRA is a state-of-the-art-platform, which will enhance the operational capabilities of the Indian Coast Guard in surveillance and search and rescue. It will be manned by 121 personnel.

• The ship will be used mainly for day and night patrolling and surveillance along with anti-terrorism and anti-smuggling operations in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). It will also be deployed to maintain coastal security.

• The offshore patrol vessel is fitted with the latest machinery, equipment and navigation systems. It will have two Navigation Radars with ultra-modern technology and advance navigational and communication systems.

• It will also be fitted with CRN-91 and 12.7 mm guns and have an integral twin-engine helicopter, which will enhance its operational, surveillance, search and rescue capability.

• Overall, the vessel is 98m in length and 15m in width with a gross weight of 2,100 tonnes. It is equipped with two diesel-driven engines and can hit a maximum speed of 26 knots.

• It will be inducted into the Coast Guard after completion of extensive trials and testing for the equipment and machinery.

Within 43 years, the Indian Coast Guard has increased its fleet strength and it is now one of the largest coast guards in the world. It can meet all kinds of maritime security challenges.

India has a rich maritime history and the Union Government is planning to develop a National Maritime Heritage Complex at Lothal, Gujarat to secure and showcase the rich maritime heritage of India.

Ever since the Indus Valley Civilisation, India is known to be a leading player in developing Maritime Technology except during a few centuries. India is now again regaining its maritime capabilities in terms of shipbuilding and securing the waters of India.

ಶಬ್ದ ಅರ್ಥ ಜ್ಞಾನ ಈ ಮೂರೂ ಪದಾರ್ಥಗಳು ಇಡಿಯಾಗಿ ಮೂರೂ ಒಟ್ಟಾಗಿ ನಮ್ಮ ಅನುಭವಕ್ಕೆ ಬರುತ್ತವೆಯೇ ಹೊರತು ಬಿಡಿಬಿಡಿಯಾಗಿ ಅನುಭವಕ್ಕೆ ಬರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. (4)

ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತದ ‘ಯತ್ರಾರ್ಥಃ ಶಬ್ದೋ ವಾ …’ ಎಂಬೀ ಧ್ವನಿಕಾವ್ಯಲಕ್ಷಣಕಾರಿಕೆಗೆ ಧ್ವನಿಕಂದವು ಮಾರ್ಗಕಾರನ ನೇರ ಮುಖಾಮುಖಿ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯೆಯೆಂಬುದನ್ನೂ ಈ ಎರಡೂ ಕಾರಿಕೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಶಬ್ದ ಅರ್ಥ ಧ್ವನಿ ಎಂಬೀ ಮೂರು ಶಬ್ದವಿಶೇಷಗಳ ಸಂನಿವೇಶರೂಪದ ಸಾಹಚರ್ಯವು ಈ ಎರಡರಲ್ಲೂ ಇರುವುದನ್ನು ಕೂಡ ಗಮನಿಸಬೇಕು.  ಈ ಮೇಲಿನ ಧ್ವನಿಕಾವ್ಯಲಕ್ಷಣಕಾರಿಕೆಯನ್ನು ಕಂಡು-ಕೇಳಿ-ತಿಳಿದಿದ್ದರಿಂದಲೇ ಮಾರ್ಗಕಾರನು ಧ್ವನಿಕಂದವನ್ನು ರಚಿಸಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಾಯಿತು.  ಆ ಕಾರಿಕೆಯು ಅವನ ಕಿವಿಗೂ ಬೀಳದಿದ್ದರೆ ಧ್ವನಿಕಂದವನ್ನು ರಚಿಸಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಾಗುತ್ತಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ‘ಅರ್ಥಂ ಬುಧ್ವಾ ಶಬ್ದರಚನಾ’ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಶ್ರೀವಿಜಯನು ಧ್ವನಿಕಾವ್ಯಲಕ್ಷಣಕಾರಿಕೆಯನ್ನು ಕಂಡೋ ಕೇಳಿಯೋ ತಿಳಿಯದಿದ್ದರೆ ಅವನು ‘ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಂ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದಂ’ ಎಂದು ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ಪ್ರಯೋಗಿಸುವುದಾದರೂ ಹೇಗೆ? ‘ಅರ್ಥಃ ತಮರ್ಥಂ ವ್ಯನಕ್ತಿ’ ಎಂಬೀ ಮಾತು ಮೊದಲ ಬಾರಿಗೆ ಕಾಣಿಸಿಕೊಂಡದ್ದು ಈ ಮೇಲಿನ ಕಾರಿಕೆಯಲ್ಲೇ ತಾನೆ! ಅರ್ಥವೂ ಅರ್ಥಾಂತರವನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ ಎಂಬ ಅರ್ಥವನ್ನು ತಿಳಿಸುವ ಮಾರ್ಗಕಾರನು  ನೋಡಿರಬಹುದಾದ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ವಾಕ್ಯವಿದ್ದರೆ ಅದನ್ನಿಲ್ಲಿ ಉದಾಹರಿಸಬೇಕು.

ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯ ಸ್ಥಳದಲ್ಲಿ ಉಭಯಪ್ರಾಪ್ತಿ ಅನ್ಯತರನಿವೃತ್ತಿ ಎಂಬೀ ಎರಡು ಅರ್ಥಗಳ ಸಂನಿವೇಶ ಸಂದರ್ಭಗಳಿರಬೇಕು.  ದ್ವನಿಪ್ರಸ್ಥಾನದ ಉಗಮದವರೆಗೂ ಕೂಡ (ಸುಮಾರು ಕ್ರಿ.ಶ. ೮೫೦ರಿಂದ ೮೮೦ ಆಸುಪಾಸು) ಭಾರತೀಯ ವಿದ್ವತ್ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ‘ನ ಸೋsಸ್ತಿ ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯೋ ಲೋಕೇ…’ ಎಂಬಂತಹ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರವಚನ ಹಾಗೂ ಲೋಕರೂಡಿಯ ಮೇರೆಗೆ ಶಬ್ದವು ಮಾತ್ರವೇ ಜ್ಞಾನಸಾಧನ ಜ್ಞಾನಜನಕ ಎಂಬಂತ ನಂಬಿಕೆಯು ಪ್ರಚಲಿತವಾಗಿತ್ತು.  ಧ್ವನಿಪ್ರಸ್ಥಾನವು ಇದಂಪ್ರಥಮವಾಗಿ ಅರ್ಥವೂ ಜ್ಞಾನಜನಕ ಜ್ಞಾನಸಾಧನ, ವ್ಯಂಜನಾವೃತ್ತಿಯ ಬಲದಿಂದ ಅರ್ಥವೂ ಕೂಡ ಅರ್ಥಾಂತರಬೋಧಕ ಎಂಬೀ ಹೊಸ ವಿಚಾರವೊಂದನ್ನು ಭಾರತೀಯ ಕಾವ್ಯಮೀಮಾಂಸಾ ವಿದ್ವತ್ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಹರಿಬಿಟ್ಟಿತು.  ಇದರಿಂದಾಗಿ ಕಾವ್ಯಾರ್ಥಪ್ರತೀತಿಯೆಂಬ ಒಂದು ಕ್ರಿಯೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಶಬ್ದ ಅರ್ಥ ಎಂಬೀ ಎರಡು ಸಾಧನಗಳು ಅವಿಶೇಷವಾಗಿ ಯುಗಪತ್ ಎಕದ್ಂ ಬಂದೊದಗಿದವು.  ಇದು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಉಭಯಪ್ರಾಪ್ತಿ ಎನಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.  ಈ ಬಗೆಯ ಉಭಯಪ್ರಾಪ್ತಿಯ ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ ಒಂದು ಸಾಧನವನ್ನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸಿ- ಅಂದರೆ ಉಳಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು, ಇನ್ನೊಂದನ್ನು ತಿರಸ್ಕರಿಸುವಿಕೆ ಅಥವಾ ನಿಷೇಧಿಸುವಿಕೆ.  ನಿಷೇಧಿಸುವಿಕೆಯೇ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಅನ್ಯತರನಿವೃತ್ತಿಯೆನಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಈ ತರಹದ ಸಂನಿವೇಶದಲ್ಲಿ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಕಾರರು ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ಪ್ರಯೋಗಿಸುತ್ತಾರಂತೆ.  ಇದೊಂದು ತರಹದ ವಚೋಭಂಗಿ, ಪ್ರಯೋಗವೈಚಿತ್ರ್ಯ.  
‘ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಂ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದಂ’ ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ  ‘ನ ಸೋsಸ್ತಿ ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯೋ ಲೋಕೇ …’ ಎಂಬೀ ಬಗೆಯ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಸಂಸ್ಕಾರದ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನ ಹಿನ್ನೆಲೆಯನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸಬಹುದು.  ಮಾರ್ಗಕಾರನ ಇದೇ ಸಂಸ್ಕಾರವನ್ನು ಮುಂದಿನ ಮುಕುಲಭಟ್ಟ ಜಯಂತಭಟ್ಟರ ವ್ಯಂಜನಾವಿರೋಧಸಂದರ್ಭದ ಮಾತುಗಳಲ್ಲೂ ಗುರುತಿಸಬಹುದು. ಧ್ವನಿವಿರೋಧಿಗಳ ಮಾತುಗಳನ್ನೂ ‘ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಂ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದಮರ್ಥದೆ ದೂಷ್ಯಂ’ ಎಂಬುದನ್ನೂ ಒಟ್ಟಿಗೆ ಇಟ್ಟುಕೊಂಡು ಪರಿಶೀಲಿಸಿದ್ದಾದರೆ ಧ್ವನಿಕಂದದ ಐನಾತಿ ಮಜಕೂರ್ ಎನೆಂಬುದು ಮನದಟ್ಟಾದೀತು.

‘ಅರ್ಥದೆ ದೂಷ್ಯಂ = ಅರ್ಥದೆಯುಂ ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಮೆಂಬುದು ದೂಷ್ಯಂ’ ಎಂಬೀ ಮಾತು ಧ್ವನಿಕಾವ್ಯಲಕ್ಷಣ ಕಾರಿಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ ‘ಅರ್ಥಃ ತಮರ್ಥಂ ವ್ಯನಕ್ತಿ’ ಎಂಬುದರ ನಿರಾಕರಣೆ.  ಭಾರತೀಯ ಕಾವ್ಯಮೀಮಾಂಸಾ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಧ್ವನಿಪ್ರಸ್ಥಾನವು ಗಟ್ಟಿಯಾಗಿ ನೆಲೆಗೊಳ್ಳುವವರೆಗೂ ಕೂಡ ವ್ಯಂಜನೆಯನ್ನು ಕುರಿತು ಈ ಬಗೆಯ ಅಸಹಿಷ್ಣುತೆಯು ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕೇಳಿ ಬರುತ್ತಿದ್ದುದು ಸಹಜ.

ಶಬ್ದ, ವಾಕ್ಯಗಳು ಹವಣಾಗಿ ಒಗ್ಗಿ ಕೂಡಿದಾಗ ಭಾಷೆಗೊಂದು ಹದವಾದ ಪಾಕ ಮೈಗೂಡುತ್ತದೆ. ಅದು ಪಳಗಿದ ಭಾಷೆಯೆನಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.  ಭಾಷೆಯ ಪರಿವಾರಗಳು ಉಪಕರಣಗಳು ಸಲಕರಣೆ ಹತ್ಯಾರಗಳು ಸಂನಿವೇಶ ಸಂದರ್ಭಗಳಿಗೆ ತಕ್ಕಂತೆ ಔಚಿತ್ಯಕ್ಕನುಗುಣವಾಗಿ ಒದಗಿಬಂದಾಗ ಭಾಷೆಯು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರ ಕಾವ್ಯ ವ್ಯವಹಾರ ಎಲ್ಲೆಡೆಗೂ ‘ಸಮರ್ಥ’ ಎನಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.  ಮಾರ್ಗಕಾರನದು ಈ ಮೂರಕ್ಕು ಲಾಯಕ್ಕಾದ ಭಾಷೆ.  ಅಂತೆಯೇ ಅವನು ಧ್ವನಿಕಂದದಲ್ಲಿ ತನ್ನ ನುಡಿಜಾಣ್ಮೆಯನ್ನು ಮೆರೆದು ಕೊಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಕಡಲನ್ನೆ ತುಂಬಿಟ್ಟಂತೆ ಆ ಒಂದು ಪುಟ್ಟ ಕಂದದಲ್ಲಿ ನಾಲ್ಕೈದು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರೀಯಾಂಶಗಳನ್ನು ಜೋಡಿಸಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದಾನೆ.

‘ಪ್ರಕೃತಿಪ್ರತ್ಯಯೌ  ಸಹಾರ್ಥಂ ಬ್ರೂತಃ ತಯೋಸ್ತು ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯಃ ಪ್ರಾಧಾನ್ಯೇನ. ಗುಣೇ ತ್ವನ್ಯಾಯಕಲ್ಪನಾ.’ -- ಪ್ರಕೃತಿ ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯಗಳೆರೆಡೂ ಒಟ್ಟಾಗಿ ಅರ್ಥವನ್ನು ತಿಳಿಸುತ್ತವೆಯಾದರೂ ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯಕ್ಕೇ ಹೆಚ್ಚುಗಾರಿಕೆ.  ಪ್ರಕೃತ್ಯರ್ಥದಲ್ಲಿ ಲಕ್ಷಣಾವೃತ್ತಿಯಿಂದ ಬೇರೆ ಅರ್ಥ ಹೇಳಬಹುದೇ ಹೊರತು ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯಾರ್ಥವನ್ನು- ಗಮಕ, ಪ್ರಯೋಜನ ಏನೂ ಇಲ್ಲದಿದ್ದಾಗ- ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಬಾರದು ಎಂಬುದಾಗಿ ಹಿಂದಿನವರು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದಾರೆ.  ‘ಗಂಗಾಯಾಂ ಘೋಷಃ’ ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ ಲಕ್ಷಣಯಾ ‘ಗಂಗಾ’ ಪ್ರಕೃತಿಗೆ ಗಂಗಾತೀರ ಎಂದು ಅರ್ಥ ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆಯೇ ಹೊರತು ಸಪ್ತಮಿಯ ಅಧಿಕರಣಾರ್ಥವನ್ನು ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿಲ್ಲ.  ಆದರೆ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ನೋಡಿ- ‘ಅರ್ಥದೆ’ ಎಂಬೀ ತೃತೀಯಾಕ್ಕೆ ಧ್ವನ್ಯಲಂಕಾರವಾದಿಗಳು 'ವಾಚ್ಯಾರ್ಥ’ ಎಂಬುದಾಗಿ ಪ್ರಥಮಾಂತದ ಅರ್ಥವನ್ನು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆ! ‘ಕಮಲದೊಳನಿಮಿಷಯುಗಂ’ ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಚ್ಯಾರ್ಥವು ಅಸಂಗತ; ಅತ ಏವ ದೂಷ್ಯ ಎಂಬುದಿಲ್ಲಿ ಆಧುನಿಕಕಾವ್ಯಮೀಮಾಂಸಕರ ಕೆಲವರ ವ್ಯಾಖ್ಯಾನ. ‘ಧ್ವನಿ’ ಎಂಬ ಒಂದು ಅರ್ಥಾಲಂಕಾರವನ್ನು ನಜರ್ ಚೂಕ್ ನಿಂದ ಕಂಡುಕೊಂಡದ್ದೇ ಮೊದಲನೆಯ ಎಡವಟ್ಟು.  ಆ ಎಡವಟ್ಟನ್ನು ಸಮರ್ಥಿಸಲು ಎಡವಟ್ಟಿನ ಸರಪಣಿಯನ್ನು ಮಾರುದ್ದ ನೇಯಬೇಕಾಯಿತು.  ವಾಚ್ಯಾರ್ಥಬಾಧೆಯು ಕಂಡುಬಂದಲ್ಲಿ ಲಕ್ಷಣೆಯನ್ನಾಶ್ರಯಿಸಿ ಸಂಗತವಾಗುವ ಕಾವ್ಯಾರ್ಥವನ್ನು ಕಂಡುಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕೆಂಬುದನ್ನು ಕಾವ್ಯಮೀಮಾಂಸೆಯೇ ಹೇಳಿದೆ.  ವಾಚ್ಯಾರ್ಥಬಾಧೆಯು ಕಾವ್ಯದೋಷವಲ್ಲ, ಬದಲಾಗಿ ಕಾವ್ಯಭೂಷಣ.  ಕವಿಸಮಯಾನುಸಾರವಾಗಿ ಪರಂಪರೆಯಿಂದಲೂ ಅನುಸರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡುಬಂದ, ನಿರ್ದುಷ್ಟವೆಂದು ಗೃಹೀತವಾದ ಎಲ್ಲ ಕಾವ್ಯಮಾರ್ಗಗಳೂ ಗ್ರಾಹ್ಯವೇ ಸರಿಯೆಂಬುದು ಕಾವ್ಯಮೀಮಾಂಸಕರ ಅಭಿಪ್ರಾಯ.  ಕಮಲದೊಳನಿಮಿಷ ಯುಗಂ- ಎಂಬುದೂ ಕೂಡ ಸತ್ ಕಾವ್ಯಪರಂಪರೆಗೇ ಒಳಪಡುತ್ತದೆ.

‘ಧ್ವನಿಯೆಂಬುದಳಂಕಾರಂ’ ಎಂಬೀ ಮಾತು ಅರ್ಥಾಲಂಕಾರವೊಂದರ ಹೆಸರೇ ಹೊರತು ‘ಅಂತರ್ಭಾವವಾದ’ವನ್ನು ಹೇಳಲು ‘ಸಮರ್ಥ’ವಾಗಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂಬುದು ನಿಜ. ‘ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಂ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದಮರ್ಥದೆ ದೂಷ್ಯಂ’ ಎಂಬೀ ಮಾತು ಅರ್ಥಾಲಂಕಾರವೊಂದರ ಲಕ್ಷಣವೆನಿಸಲು ‘ಸಮರ್ಥ’ವಾಗಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂಬುದೂ ಕೂಡ ಅಷ್ಟೇ ನಿಜ. ಹಾಗಾದರೆ ಧ್ವನಿಯೆಂಬುದು ಒಂದು ಅಲಂಕಾರವಂತೂ ಆಗಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಿಲ್ಲ.  ಮತ್ತೇನಾಗಬೇಕು? ಅಲಂಕಾರಗಳು ಎಂದೇ ಆಗಬೇಕು.  ಆಗೇನಾಯಿತು? ಅಂತರ್ಭಾವವಾದ ಎಂದೇ ಸಿದ್ಧವಾಯಿತು.

ಧ್ವನಿಯೆಂಬುದು ಒಂದು ಅರ್ಥಾಲಂಕಾರ ಎಂಬುದಾಗಿ ಮತ್ತೆಲ್ಲೂ ಕೇಳಿಬಂದಿಲ್ಲ.  ಬದಲಾಗಿ ಧ್ವನ್ಯಲಂಕಾರವೆಂದರೆ ಶಬ್ದಾಲಂಕಾರ ಎಂಬುದು ಕೇಳಿಬಂದಿದೆ.

ಚಿತ್ರಂ ವಕ್ರೋಕ್ತ್ಯನುಪ್ರಾಸೌ ಯಮಕಂ ಧ್ವನ್ಯಲಂಕ್ರಿಯಾ।
ಅರ್ಥಾಲಂಕೃತಯೋ ಜಾತಿರುಪಮಾ ರೂಪಕಂ ತಥಾ.॥
                                                                  (ವಾಗ್ಭಟಾಲಂಕಾರ -೪-೨)

‘ಶಬ್ದ’ ಶಬ್ದಕ್ಕೆ ಬದಲು ‘ಧ್ವನಿ’ ಶಬ್ದವು ಹಿಂದೆ ಬಳಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿತ್ತು ಎಂಬುದಕ್ಕೆ ಭಾಮಹನಲ್ಲಿ ಉದಾಹರಣೆಯಿದೆ. ‘ಧ್ವನಿಯೆನಿಸಿದಳಂಕಾರಧ್ವನಿ’ (8) ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ ಪಂಪನು ಶಬ್ದಾಲಂಕಾರವನ್ನೆ ಹೇಳುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾನೆಂಬುದನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸಬಹುದು.

ಒಟ್ಟಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಧ್ವನಿಕಂದದ ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ ಒಟ್ಟಾದ ಪುರುಳು ಇವಿಷ್ಟು: ಧ್ವನಿಯೆಂಬುದು ಅಲಂಕಾರಗಳು, ಅರಿವನ್ನು ಮೂಡಿಸುವುದು ನುಡಿಯ ಕೆಲಸ ಪುರುಳಿನದಲ್ಲ.  ಪುರುಳು ಕೂಡ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಪುರುಳನ್ನು ಹೊಳೆಯಿಸುತ್ತದೆ ಎಂಬ ಮಾತು ಸರಿಯಲ್ಲ.  ಇದನ್ನು- ಧ್ವನಿಯೆಂಬುದು ಅಲಂಕಾರಗಳು ಎಂಬುದನ್ನು- ಹೀಗೆ ನೆನಪು ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಿ. ಅಂದರೆ, ಅಲ್ಲಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಲಕ್ಷ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಉದಾಹರಣೆಗಳನ್ನು ನೋಡಿ ಈ ಹಿಂದೆ ನಿರೂಪಿಸಲ್ಪಟ್ಟ ಅತಿಶಯೋಕ್ತಿಯೇ ಮೊದಲಾದ ಅಲಂಕಾರಗಳ ಪೈಕಿ ಪ್ರಕೃತಕ್ಕೆ ಯಾವ ಅಲಂಕಾರವು ಹೊಂದಿಕೆಯಾದೀತೆಂಬುದನ್ನು ಕಂಡುಕೊಳ್ಳಿ ಎಂದರ್ಥ.  ‘ಕಮಲದೊಳನಿಮಿಷಯುಗಂ’ ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ ಅತಿಶಯೋಕ್ತಿಯಿದೆ.  ಲೋಕಮರ್ಯಾದೆಯನ್ನು, ನಿಯತಿಕೃತನಿಯಮವನ್ನು ಮೀರಿ ವಾಚ್ಯಾರ್ಥವು ಅಸಂಗತ, ಬಾಧಿತ ಎಂಬಂತೆ ಹೇಳುವುದೇ ಅತಿಶಯ. ‘ಲೋಕಸೀಮಾತಿವರ್ತನಃ ವಿಶೇಷಸ್ಯ ವಿವಕ್ಷಾ’. ಅದು ಕವಿಸಮಯ. ಅಭೇದಾಧ್ಯವಸಾಯ, ಅಧ್ಯಾರೋಪ.  ‘ಬಾಧಕಾಲೀನ ಇಚ್ಚಾಜನ್ಯಜ್ಞಾನಂ ಆರೋಪಃ’ ಮುಂತಾಗಿ ಕಾವ್ಯಮೀಮಾಂಸೆಯು ಹೇಳುತ್ತದೆ.   ‘ಕಮಲದೊಳನಿಮಿಷಯುಗಂ’ ಎಂಬುದು ಮಾತ್ರ ವಾಚ್ಯಾರ್ಥ ಅಸಂಗತ ಬಾಧಿತ, ದೂಷ್ಯ ಎನಿಸಿದ್ದು ಹೇಗೆ?

ಧ್ವನಿಕಂದದಲ್ಲಿ ಧ್ವನ್ಯಲಂಕಾರ ತಲೆದೋರಿದ್ದು ಇಸ್ವಿ 1930ರಲ್ಲಿ.  ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ಪಂಪ ರನ್ನರಿಗೆ ಈ ಧ್ವನ್ಯಲಂಕಾರದ ಚಮತ್ಕಾರವನ್ನು ಸವಿದು ಸುಖಿಸುವ ಯೋಗ ಒದಗಿಬರಲಿಲ್ಲ.  ಪಂಪನು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದು ಶಬ್ದಾಲಂಕಾರದ ಬಗೆಗೆ. ರನ್ನನು ಭರತನ ಕಾವ್ಯಭೂಷಣಗಳನ್ನು ‘… ಅಲಂಕ್ರಿಯಾರಚನೆ ಮೂವತ್ತಾರು ನೇರ್ಪಟ್ಟವು’ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾನೆ.

ಫಲಾನಾವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯಿದೆ ಎಂಬುದು ಸಟ್ಟನೆ ನಮ್ಮ ತಲೆಗೆ ಹತ್ತುವುದೇ ಇಲ್ಲ.  ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯ ಗತ್ತೇ ಹಾಗಿದೆ.  ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯಾಸ್ಥಳದಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಷೇಧವೇ ವಾಕ್ಯದ ವಿವಕ್ಷಿತ ಅರ್ಥ ಎಂಬುದು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಮರ್ಯಾದೆ.  ಆದರೆ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಷೇಧಬೋಧಕ ಪದಗಳು ಇರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.  ವಿಧಿರೂಪದ ಪದಗಳೇ ಇರುತ್ತವೆ.  ಲಕ್ಷಣೆಯಿಂದ ನಿಷೇಧಾರ್ಥವನ್ನು ಕಂಡುಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು.  'ಪಂಚ ಪಂಚನಖಾಃ ಭಕ್ಷ್ಯಾಃ’ ಎಂಬೀ ವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯಿದೆಯೆಂದು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಕಾರರು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದಾರೆ.  ನಮಗಿಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಷೇಧರೂಪದ ಅರ್ಥವು ಮೇಲ್ನೋಟಕ್ಕೆ ತೋರಿಬರುವುದೇ ಇಲ್ಲ.  ವಿಧಿರೂಪದ ಅರ್ಥ ಮಾತ್ರ ಕಂಡುಬರುತ್ತದೆ.  ಆದರೆ ಇದು ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತದ ಒಂದು ಶಿಸ್ತು.  ವಾಖ್ಯಾನಕಾರರು ಅಲ್ಲಲ್ಲಿ ಈ ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ತೋರಿಸಿಕೊಡುತ್ತಾರೆ.  ‘ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಂ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದಂ’ ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾನ್ಯ ವ್ಯಾಖ್ಯಾನಕಾರರಿಗೆ ಇದು ಹೊಳೆಯಲಿಲ್ಲ.  ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಶ್ರೀವಿಜಯನ ವಿವಕ್ಷಿತ ಅರ್ಥವು ಮುಂದೆ ಬರಲೇ ಇಲ್ಲ.  ಕಂದದಲ್ಲೇ ಉಳಿಯಿತು.

‘ದ್ವಯೋಃ ಸಮುಚ್ಚಿತ್ಯ ಪ್ರಾಪ್ತೌ ಇತರನಿವ್ರುತ್ತಿಫಲಕೋ ವಿದಿಃ ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯಾ’ (9) ಎಂಬುದಾಗಿ ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯ ಸ್ವರೂಪವನ್ನು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆ.  ಶಬ್ದವು ಜ್ಞಾನಜನಕ, ಅರಿವನ್ನು ಮೂಡಿಸುವುದು ನುಡಿಯ ಕೆಲಸ ಎಂಬಂತಹ ತಿಳುವಳಿಕೆಯು ಸಂಸ್ಕಾರವು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರ ಹಾಗೂ ಲೋಕವ್ಯವಹಾರಗಳಿಂದ ಪ್ರಸಿದ್ಧವಾಗಿತ್ತು.  ಈದೀಗ ಅಂದರೆ, ಶ್ರೀವಿಜಯನು ಕವಿರಾಜಮಾರ್ಗ ಕೃತಿಯನ್ನು ಬರೆದು ಮುಗಿಸಲಿರುವ ಹೊತ್ತಿಗೆ ‘ಅರ್ಥಃ ತಮರ್ಥಂ ವ್ಯನಕ್ತಿ’ ಎಂಬೀ ಧ್ವನಿಕಾವ್ಯಲಕ್ಷಣಕಾರಿಕೆಯ ಮಾತು ಅವನ ಕಿವಿಗೆ ಬಿತ್ತು.  ಪ್ರಾಸಂಗಿಕವಾಗಿ(10), ಅಂದರೆ ನೆನಪಾದುದನ್ನು ಹೇಳಲೇಬೇಕೆಂಬ ಒತ್ತಡದಿಂದ ಧ್ವನಿಯೆಂದರೆ ಅಲಂಕಾರಗಳಿಗಿಂತ ಬೇರೇನೂ ಅಲ್ಲ ಎಂಬುದಾಗಿ ಒಂದು ಮಾತು ಹೇಳಿದ.  ಅರ್ಥಧ್ವನನ ಕ್ರಿಯೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಶಬ್ದ ಅರ್ಥ ಎಂಬೀ ಎರಡು ಸಾಧನಗಳು ಮಾಧ್ಯಮಗಳು, ಯುಗಪತ್, ಒಟ್ಟಿಗೆ ಪ್ರಾಪ್ತವಾದವು, ಅರಿವಿಗೆ ಬಂದವು.  ಈ ಎರಡು ಸಾಧನಗಳ ಪೈಕಿ ಧ್ವನನ ಕ್ರಿಯೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಶಬ್ದವೊಂದೇ ಸಾಧನ ಸಾಕು ಎಂದು ಶಬ್ದವನ್ನು ಪುರಸ್ಕರಿಸಿ ‘ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಂ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದಂ’ ಅರ್ಥದೆಯಲ್ತು ಎಂದು ಅರ್ಥಧ್ವನನ ಅಂದರೆ  ಧ್ವನನಕ್ರಿಯೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅರ್ಥಕ್ಕೆ ಸಾಧನತ್ವವನ್ನು ಶ್ರೀವಿಜಯನು ತಿರಸ್ಕರಿಸಿದ್ದಾನೆ.  ಹೀಗಿದು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ‘ಉಭಯಸ್ಯ ಯುಗಪತ್ ಪ್ರಾಪ್ತೌ ಧ್ವನನಕ್ರಿಯಾಯಾಂ ಅರ್ಥಸ್ಯ ಸಾಧನತ್ವವ್ಯಾವೃತ್ತಿಫಲಕ’ ವಾದಂತಾದ್ದರಿಂದ ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯೆಂದು ಹೇಳಲೇಬೇಕು.  ಶಬ್ದ ಅರ್ಥಗಳು ಪಾರ್ವತೀಪರಮೇಶ್ವರರಂತೆ ಅಂಟಿಕೊಂಡೇ ಇರುವ ಪದಾರ್ಥಗಳಾದ್ದರಿಂದ ಶಬ್ದದಿಂದಂ ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ ಅರ್ಥದಿಂದಂ, ಅರ್ಥದೆ ಎಂಬುದು ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಉಪಸ್ಥಿತವೇ, ಹಾಜರಾಗಿಯೇ ಇರುತ್ತದೆ.  ಶಬ್ದಕ್ಕೆ ಧ್ವನನಕ್ರಿಯೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅನ್ವಯ ಹೇಳಿದಂತಯೇ ಅರ್ಥದೆ ಎಂಬುದಕ್ಕೂ ಧ್ವನನಕ್ರಿಯೆಯಲ್ಲೇ ಅನ್ವಯ ಹೇಳಬೇಕೆಂಬುದು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರೀಯವಾಗಿ ನ್ಯಾಯ್ಯಃ ಪಂಥಾಃ. ‘ಆಕಾಂಕ್ಷಾ ಯೋಗ್ಯತಾ ಸಂನಿಧಿಶ್ಚ ವಾಕ್ಯಾರ್ಥಜ್ಞಾನೇ ಹೇತುಃ(11). ಈ ಅನ್ವಯಸಾಮಗ್ರಿಯು ‘ಜ್ಞಾತಾ ಸತೀ’ ಕಾರಣವಾಗುತ್ತದೆಂದು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆ.  ಅರ್ಥೆದೆ ಎಂಬಲ್ಲಿ ತೃತೀಯಾಕ್ಕೆ- ತನಗೆಲ್ಲಿ ಅನ್ವಯ?- ಎಂಬಂತಹ ಆಕಾಂಕ್ಷೆಯಿದೆ.  ಹಿಂದಿನ ವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಧ್ವನಿಯಿಸುಗುಂ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದವನ್ನು ಅರ್ಥದೆಯ ಮುಂದೆ ಅನುಷಂಗ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡು ಪೂರ್ಣವಾಕ್ಯವನ್ನು ನೇರ್ಪಡಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು.  ‘ಎಂಬುದು’ ಅಧ್ಯಾಹಾರ.  ಈ ಪರಿಪಾಟಿಯು  ವಾಕ್ಯವಾಕ್ಯಾರ್ಥವಿಶ್ಲೇಷಣೆಯ ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಕಾರರೇ ಹೇಳಿದ್ದು. ಲೋಕವ್ಯವಹಾರದಲ್ಲೂ ಇದು ಇದ್ದೇ ಇದೆ. ‘ಅರಿವನ್ನು ಮೂಡಿಸುವುದು ನುಡಿಯ ಕೆಲಸ’.  ಇದು ಪರಿಸಂಖ್ಯೆ. ‘ಪುರುಳಿನದಲ್ಲ’. ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಅನ್ವಯಸಾಮಗ್ರಿಯನ್ನು ಜೋಡಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ‘ಅರಿವನ್ನು ಮೂಡಿಸುವುದು ಪುರುಳಿನ ಕೆಲಸವಲ್ಲ’ ಎಂಬೀ ಬಗೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಕ್ಯವನ್ನು ನೇರ್ಪಡಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ಶಾಬ್ದಬೋಧ ಕಂಡುಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು.  ಈ ಬಗೆಯ ಶಾಬ್ದಬೋಧ ಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆಗಳು ಶ್ರೀವಿಜಯನ ಕಾಲದಲ್ಲಿನ್ನೂ ಮೈದಳೆದಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂಬ ಮಾತು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕೇಳಿಬಂದಿದೆ. ಅವಚ್ಚೇದಕಾವಚ್ಛಿನ್ನಶೃಂಖಲೆಯ ಶಾಬ್ದಬೋಧಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆಯು ಮಾತ್ರ ಅವನ ಕಾಲಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಮುಂದಿನದೆಂದು ಹೇಳಬಹುದೇ ಹೊರತು ಅನ್ವಯಸಾಮಗ್ರಿಯ ಬಳಕೆಯೆಂಬ ಈ ಚಿಕ್ಕ ಪರಿಭಾಷೆಯೂ ಅಂದು ಇರಲಿಲ್ಲಾಂತ ಹೇಳಲಾಗದು.  ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳು ಹುಟ್ಟಿದ ಮರುದಿನವೇ ಈ ಬಗೆಯ ಭಾಷಾಪರಿಕರಗಳೂ ಹುಟ್ಟಿವೆಯೆಂದೇ ಹೇಳಬಹುದು.

UDAN 4.0: The Union Government has launched the fourth round of the regional connectivity scheme

UDAN 4.0: The Union Government has launched the fourth round of the regional connectivity scheme, UDAN to boost connectivity to more remote and regional areas of the country.  

UDAN, which stands for ‘Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagrik’, aims to make air travel affordable and widespread. The UDAN 4.0 will focus on the priority regions including the northeast, hilly states, Jammu and Kashmir UT, Ladakh and islands.

The Union Ministry of Civil Aviation launched the 4th round of the Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS) UDAN following three successful rounds of bidding to enhance connectivity in the remote and regional areas of the country.

UDAN 4.0: Key Features

1. Revision of Viability Gap Funding (VGF) – The VGF provision for Category 2 / 3 aircraft (with more than 20 seats) has been enhanced for the operation of flights under RCS to priority areas. The VGF cap applicable for operation of category 1 / 1 A aircraft (below 20 seaters) has also been revised to incentivize the operation of smaller aircraft under the scheme.

The priority areas include the two new union territories of Ladakh and Jammu & Kashmir, hilly states of Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhandnorth-eastern states and island regions of Lakshadweep and Andaman & Nicobar Islands.

2. Short-haul routes- The VGF provision would be restricted to routes with stage length of up to 600 km for the operation of category 2 / 3 aircraft. Beyond this, no monetary support would be provided. The table for the provision of VGF for various stage lengths would be available for stage length up to 500 km.

3. Prioritization framework – Under the scheme, airports already developed by the Airport Authority of India will be given higher priority for the Viability Gap Funding. The airports not part of the list but are located in the priority areas will be given priority next, followed by airports located in other areas.

4. Flexibility to change the flight operation frequency - The Selected Airline Operator (SAO) will be allowed to change the flight operation frequency during the tenure of flight operation of the given route. However, this will only be allowed when the total scheduled flight operation, which was submitted as a part of the Technical Proposal, was conformed and adhered to within a year.

5. Inclusion of helicopter and seaplane operation- The The operation of helicopter and seaplane would be allowed under round four of the UDAN scheme under the NSOP license.

UDAN scheme: Background

The UDAN scheme was launched in October 2016 to make air travel affordable by providing connectivity to the under-served areas in the country by the revival of existing airports and airstrips.

Besides making travel affordable and accessible to all, the UDAN scheme aims to boost inclusive national economic development, development of air transport infrastructure in all regions and job growth.

Florence Nightingale Awards 2019

Florence Nightingale Awards 2019: President Ram Nath Kovind presented the National Florence Nightingale Awards to 36 nursing personnel at an awards ceremony in Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi on December 5, 2019. The awards were conferred on the occasion of International Nurses Day.

While conferring the awards, the President reiterated the significant role played by the nurses in delivering quality healthcare, addressing multiple health challenges and caring for the health needs of families, individuals and communities as a whole. The President stated that nurses are a symbol of seva, shushrusha and karuna. They are the face of healthcare services for patients and their families.

President Kovind further stated that with the changing lifestyles, the demand for professional caregivers, especially for the elderly, is on the rise. The President suggested the development of short training programs for care-givers by the nursing institutions in the nation. The care-givers are not professionally trained nurses and hence, they would benefit from basic training in geriatric care.

The World Health Organisation also announced the year 2020 as the ‘Year of Nurses and Midwives’. The year 2020 also commemorates the 200th birth anniversary of Florence Nightingale, after whom the nursing awards have been named.

Disha Act: The Andhra Pradesh cabinet has approved the enactment of the Andhra Pradesh Criminal Law (Amendment) Act

Disha Act: The Andhra Pradesh cabinet has approved the enactment of the Andhra Pradesh Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, which proposes harsh punishment for crimes against women. The cabinet under AP Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy gave its approval on December 11, 2019.

The Andhra Pradesh Criminal Law (Amendment) Act is also known as Disha Act. The act provides for harsher punishments to those guilty of heinous crimes against women including the death sentence.

The historic decision was taken as a measure to protect women and children in the state. The AP cabinet also approved Andhra Pradesh Special Court for Specified Offences against Women and Children Act, 2019.

Speedy trial and judgment

The Disha act calls for speedy trial within 14 days and judgment within 21 days in case of heinous crimes against women such as acid attacks and rape, in the presence of conclusive evidence.

The Andhra cabinet has also given its approval to the Andhra Pradesh Special Court for Specified Offences against Women and Children Act 2019, which proposes the establishment of special courts in every district in the country to deal with cases of crimes against women and children.
