The Three Lions Emblem

The new sculpture of the three lions emblem of India, which is now installed on the top of the parliament building was unveiled recently for the public display. After that, there were comments about the loss of the proportions with respect to the original, ancient sculpture available at Sarnath.

With that, the 1st thought appeared in my mind was about the technical specification of that emblem. If it is about the printing of the image of that emblem, the government authorities can reproduce the existing images or take new photographs and print those or publish in the electronic media, like the websites. But when it comes to the physical objects like the sculptures, the specifications are needed. We have such specification, Indian Standard IS:1, for the flag of India. There is the Flag Code also.

It seems that no such specification and no code exists for the three lions emblem. It might not have been felt needed until now. But once the controversy has arisen, it will be better finalizing and releasing a technical specification for the emblem, as early as possible.

Uniform Civil Code

The controversy over this topic arises because it is generally correlated to the religious matters. But it need not be so. I suggest for introducing two separate statutes as follows, for moving one step further in that direction. (1) Family Affairs Recognition Act -- This statue should cover the matters related to registration of birth, death, marriage, divorce, child adoption, support to minor children, disowning of children (minor and adult, both), inherence of the family property, live in relationships, nomination, etc. This statute should be uniformly applicable to all persons, irrespective of the caste, religion, language, race etc. The rules related to family planning also should be uniformly applicable to all. All other existing statues on these matters should be repealed. The religious rituals should be obviously kept out the scope of this statute. (2) Religious Bodies Regulation Act -- This statue should cover the matters related to registration of the religious bodies, their ...

National Logistics Policy

One of the appreciable developments in the recent period is the publication of National Logistics Policy or NLP in short form. It was published / declared on 17th September 2022. A concept of Global Logistics Hub also is introduced in that policy. With this remarkable one forward step, India needs one more policy as National Manufacturing Policy (NMP). Without this policy, the logistics policy is more likely to result into transportation and distribution of imported goods into India. The transportation infrastructure should be utilized more for promoting the exports of Made in India goods. I hope that the said NMP also will be formulated and declared in near future. .
