JP Facebook replacing VOA & BBC?

Facebook replacing VOA & BBC?
Posted By Farhan Z Shah

Islamabad: Voice of America' (VOA) and British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) are limiting their worldwide media operations after taking higher level decisions to use social media as a tool to spread information about United States and Europe.

According to international media experts, VOA, an ideological product designed for countries with which the US has little communication and interaction, is no longer required given the objective it was established to fulfill. "The same is true for the UK now the BBC World Service has announced it will end several of its foreign language broadcasts, including those in Chinese," they argued.

Chen Weihua, senior media person from China says "VOA's mission is quite obvious as we see the US Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948, better known as the Smith-Mundt Act, which forbids VOA to broadcast directly to US citizens. The legislation, an attempt to protect the American public from propaganda actions by its own government, speaks much of VOA's credibility."

As the world and modes of communication change with numerous other sources of information it is expected that the US may resort to the Internet and other advanced means to continue its information spreading to other countries.

According to BBC, it will be focusing more on online media and will limit other means of communication in next five years.

This is also evident from current firings of staff from BBC triggering a wave of criticism against the UK state-run broadcasting giant, considered to be a hard supporter of homosexuality.

In the same run, VOA has been hiring news staff on 1-year contract basis instead of any permanent recruiting allover the world. Established in 1942 during World War II under the Office of War Information, VOA had its heyday in the Cold War years under the State Department when the flow of information between the East and West was like molasses.

Experts are predicting that social media giants like Facebook, Twitter, Digg, Reddit etc. might be the next tool of information spreading replacing global media giants.

"There is a need of more representation from the developing world, such as China, Brazil, India and Africa in a global news media market now dominated by US and European companies for a better flow of information," Chen concluded.

Godhra train burning case: prosecution to seek death penalty for convicts
Posted By Jitender Singh

New Delhi: The prosecution lawyers in the Godhra train burning case would seek death sentence for the 31 convicts.

Special public prosecutor J M Panchal said.that they would seek "maximum punishment" for all the convicts.

"The court has accepted our contention that the burning of the S-6 coach of the Sabarmati Express was a conspiracy hatched by the convicts," he added.

Panchal said that the Indian Penal Code's section for criminal conspiracy would attract maximum punishment, adding that the maximum punishment for murder is death, under the IPC.

"We would be asking for maximum punishment for the convicts in the case," he maintained.

A special court on Tuesday convicted 31 people and acquitted 63 others, in the Godhra train carnage that triggered a communal violence in Gujarat which claimed over 1,200 lives, mainly of Muslims, nine years ago.

At least 59 people had died and many were injured in the incident that took place on February 27, 2002.

JP What is an Alumni?

What is an Alumni ?

What do we offer to our Alumni?

what is an Alumni?

An ALUMNUS is a former pupil or student of a school or a university. Plural of it is called
ALUMNI.

What do we offer to our Alumni?

The most important of all is to keep Alumni connected and coordinated with the university. In order to achieve this goal, the Department of Alumni Affairs has planned to develop a scheme of activities throughout the year and circulate it to all the Alumni ahead of time through Emails and posts, to maximize their participation.

Some of those activities may be:

An Alumni Reunion at the time of Convocation which may include an address by one of the senior management person of the university and sharing of views as an Alumnus by an Alumni registered member. From Tilawat to the Master of Ceremony, all the activities of the day may be conducted by the registered Alumni members. They would be the guests and the hosts at the same time and hence, would give them an inner feeling of ownership for the University. Later in the program, there may be a reception and a musical evening / a ghazal mehfil / a talent show with a voluntary participation also by the alumni.
The Alumni Reunion would provide a platform where those Alumni would also join in, who have not yet registered themselves. Therefore, an Alumni Registration Desk will be in the planning, ahead of time.
They may be sent an invitation through email or by post for attending and participating in the different university events and activities, like Annual Sports Day, Talent Show, Milad-un-Nabi, Musical Evenings, Workshops, Conferences and Seminars etc.
Moreover, on presenting their Alumni card at the University Library or at the Computer Lab, they may be entitled to avail the given facility.
A Family Mela may be organized by the Alumni Affairs Department in coordination with other departments. So, that the alumni can bring their spouses and children and share their beautiful memories with them. In this mela, there may be stalls for children's activities, for the interest of females, food and entertainment, art and crafts and cultural stalls for their attraction and enjoyment.

These will be the times when our Alumni will get an opportunity to meet their old friends and colleagues and spend some time with each other and build their coordination with each other while introducing their families. Such activities will keep up the interest of Alumni, as a result, will keep the Alumni connected with the university at all times.

The above information & facilities are for:
