Varanasi the new battleground !

Varanasi also known as Banaras or Kashi is a city on the banks of the Ganga. It is also known as the favourite city of the Hindu idol Lord Shiva as it has been mentioned in the Rigveda that this city at older times was known as Kashi or "Shiv ki Nagri".

Varanasi is often referred to as "the city of temples", "the holy city of India", "the religious capital of India", "the city of shiva", and "the city of learning". The City has been named after Varuna and Assi rivers.

Varanasi — a melting pot of Hindus and Muslims who have lived side by side for years — is the centre of attention today.

In the coming weeks, it will be the most watched city in the country. It is all set to be one of the most hotly contested Lok Sabha seat after BJP’s prime ministerial candidate, 63-year-old Narendra Modi, decided to contest election from the holy city. And now, Modi faces a new challenge in form of the indefatigable Arvind Kejriwal. The Aam Aadmi Party convener has already raised the pitch by relentlessly attacking the ‘Modi model’.

Congress is still undecided about putting up a candidate in Varanasi.

Varanasi Lok Sabha constituency has five assembly segments of which three are urban- Varanasi North, Varanasi South and Varanasi Cantonment- while the other two Sevapuri and Rohaniya are rural. It is currently represented by senior BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi in Parliament.

A new political era

Varanasi today becomes a definition for a different political battle. The recent Delhi election was about defeating a decadent Congress. Varanasi is about inventing and invoking a new era in politics.

Why Modi decided to contest from Varanasi when he was sure to get elected from Gujarat? Perhaps, he thought that having a foothold in UP, may help the BJP to win more seats from the most populous state of the union. Also his run for election in the holy city may galvanize support among Hindus. It will brush up his Hindu credentials and also focus his campaign on a key swing area.

Mr. Arvind Kejriwal is suggesting the battle is different, that he and even Mr. Modi are irrelevant. The choice and challenge before India as a civilisation, a nation, a democracy and a community is to decide what kind of a decent society we want to be.

 In fact, Kejriwal is presenting himself as a comic clown against Mr. Modi as king and asking what Mr. Vajpayee asked of Mr. Modi — what is Rajdharma? Do the emperor’s new clothes, which he calls development, tell us something about the middle class? Who then talks of the marginal? Is power always frozen at the top or can it melt and coat an entire system? In asking these questions, Mr. Kejriwal is inviting India to the new possibilities of democracy.

Mr. Kejriwal’s trip is like a pilgrimage. Mr. Modi’s organisation is like an army that is camping.

Mr. Kejriwal’s attempts in terms of political scale would be modest. His message is like a conversation, homely, humble, and even deprecating. Mr. Modi has the persona of a loudspeaker, amplifying his own repetitions.

Mr. Kejriwal has place for the small and marginal, for the gossip of the nukkad. He is a listener. Mr. Modi’s persona comes out better as a Dictaphone.

But the contrasting styles are a signal to the contrasting messages of the two opponents. Mr. Kejriwal is content to be the quiet catalyst that changes not just electoral democracy but the drama of citizenship.
Mr. Kejriwal is leveraging Varanasi to challenge the Gujarat that Mr. Modi presents. It is a battle of texts, discourses, messages which will be deciphered again and again. In this lies the value and drama of Indian Democracy.

Leaders represented Varanasi in the Lok Sabha: 

A galaxy of leaders had represented Varanasi in the Lok Sabha. Besides, Lal Bahadur Shastri, who succeeded Jawaharlal Nehru as India’s second Prime Minister, Dr. Sampurnand, named philosopher-king, an astrologer, who UP’s Chief Minister, hailed from the holy city.

The freedom fighter, Pt. Kamlapati Tripathi, once UP’s Chief Minister and later Railway Minister in Indira Gandhi cabinet also belonged to Varanasi. Many BJP leaders too were elected from the ancient city, latest of the BJP leader elected from Varanasi was Dr. Murli Manohar Joshi, who was unwilling to be shifted Kanpur to make way for Narendra Modi, but eventually fell in line.

The holy city is facing the brunt of years of neglect: 

The historic city by the sacred Ganga is home to more than a million and draws pilgrims from across the world to its ghats and is yet in such a grim condition.

The city has a BJP mayor, MLA and MP, but still the new sewer system built recently is in a bad shape.

What is even worse is that the Manikarnika Ghat, where the last rites are performed, not only lacks modern infrastructure but the waste from the Ghat also flows into the river.

A little down the river, bloated human bodies as well bodies of animals are seen floating which no one has come to claim or remove. Also seen are the drains that empty the waste of the city into the river.

The roads in Varanasi are both bad and congested, which is poorly planned construction work at many places which not only shrinks the available space but also increases the risk of accidents.

"It is the carelessness and emotionless governance and they are not taking Varanasi in right earnest.
They are not considering the vast height of Varanasi in international map. It will be good if the politicians take care of it. It will bring in more fame for the city.

Earth Hour Save Planet

Earth Hour is a worldwide grassroots movement uniting people to protect the planet, and is organised by WWF.

It is an event that aims to create awareness of people taking responsibility towards a sustainable future by turning the lights off. Earth Hour is not to be confused with Earth Day.

Engaging a massive mainstream community on a broad range of environmental issues, Earth Hour was famously started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia in 2007.

Since then it has grown to engage more than 7000 cities and towns worldwide, and the one-hour event continues to remain the key driver of the now larger movement.

Actor Arjun Kapoor has been announced as the national brand ambassador of the environmental campaign ' Earth Hour 2014

What do people do?

People will turn off all non-essential lights to raise awareness about environmental challenges at the specified time.

On Saturday March 29th at 8:30pm, millions of people across the world are switching off lights for one hour - to celebrate their commitment to the planet.

Iconic buildings and landmarks from Europe to Asia to the Americas have stood in darkness during previous Earth Hours. 

Some people enjoy Earth Hour with a candle-lit dinner or a candle-lit bath, while others host large events or parties, either in darkness or with candles, to celebrate Earth Hour.

Businesses and government organizations, as well as community and political leaders also take part in Earth Hour. It's about giving people a voice on the planet’s future and working together to create a sustainable low carbon future for planet earth.

Earth Hour only asks people to turn off the non-essential lights for one hour - not lights that affect public safety. Earth Hour is also a celebration of the planet so it’s important to enjoy the moment in a safe environment

For the very first time, Moscow’s Kremlin and whole Red Square complex, including St. Basil’s Cathedral, Historical Museum and the famous GUM-mall switch off for Earth Hour.

Participating landmarks include:

The Sydney Harbour Bridge, Tokyo Tower, Taipei 101, The Petronas Towers, Beijing National Stadium (Bird's Nest), Marina Bay Sands Singapore, Gateway of India, The Burj Khalifa, The Church of the Nativity (Birthplace of Jesus, Bethlehem), Table Mountain, Dubrovnik City Walls, Eiffel Tower, Avenue Habib Bourguiba, The Acropolis, Tower of Pisa, The Spanish Steps, Brandenburg Gate, Buckingham Palace, Tower Bridge, The UK Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Christ the Redeemer Statue, CN Tower, Las Vegas Strip, Times Square, The Empire State Building, Niagara Falls and more.

Vancouver, Canada was crowned as the first ever Global Earth Hour Capital. The city was recognised for its ambition to be a global leader on climate-smart urban development with green targets.

For example, by 2020, Vancouver aims for all new buildings to be carbon neutral in their operations; citizens to make over 50% of trips by foot, bicycle or public transport; and the number of green jobs to have doubled.

Whose idea was Earth Hour:

Earth Hour came from a think tank initiated by Earth Hour CEO and Co-Founder, Andy Ridley, resulting in the formation of a partnership between WWF Australia, Leo Burnett and Fairfax Media to address the climate change issue.

In 2007, there was still a degree of scepticism and denial about the issue of climate change. Earth Hour came as the inspiration to rally people to the reality of climate change and start a dialogue about what we as individuals can do to help address the greatest problem facing our planet today.

Leo Burnett partnered with WWF to promote the idea and help make the campaign a reality in Sydney, a campaign which has now gone beyond climate change to symbolise the growing global pursuit of a better, healthier world.

Commitment to Earth Hour mean:

By registering for Earth Hour 2014, individuals, communities and businesses are making a commitment to turn their lights off for an hour at 8.30PM on Saturday 29 March in acknowledgement of an act they will undertake for the benefit of the planet. 

We hope that these individuals, communities and businesses will take action beyond the hour through Earth Hour Blue

Earth Hour’s relationship with WWF:

Earth Hour is an initiative of WWF.  In 2007, WWF initiated Earth Hour a way of engaging a broad section of society in the environmental issues challenging citizens across the world. WWF embraced the idea of an open sourced campaign that would allow communities and organisations to become part of a global movement to protect out planet.

Why is Spider-Man Earth Hour’s ambassador in 2014?

Earth Hour and ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’ (TASM2), distributed by Sony Pictures Entertainment, are encouraging people across the world to become superheroes for the planet with a simple call to action: “Use Your Power at earthhour.org”.

The partnership will allow us to reach an even broader section of society to spread the Earth Hour message, which is an approach that has allowed the movement to grow to the position it is in today.

Key to the partnership is that The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is the most eco-friendly blockbuster produced by Sony Pictures. Sony Pictures will offset 4,000 tonnes of carbon through WWF-China’s Gold Standard Verified ‘Energy Efficient Stoves To Protect The Giant Panda” project; and these carbon offsets have rendered the entire physical production of the film, as well as well as the appearance and activities of the film’s cast, producers and director for Earth Hour events, completely carbon-neutral.

Spider-Man is Earth Hour’s first superhero ambassador, epitomizing the power of the individual and inspiring his fans to become superheroes for the planet. We want every fan of Spider-Man to walk away knowing they can do something to protect the planet. Earth Hour is a movement for people illustrate their support, and Earth Hour Blue is the place they can get involved.
