key points

  • The apex court had earlier asked the petitioner and registered society 'All India Primary Teachers' Union to hand over the memorandum to the central government on the implementation of the Free and Compulsory Education Act to the children.
  • In addition to Ranjan Gogoi, in this bench, Justice S.K. Kaul and Justice K.M. Joseph was involved. This bench told the petitioner that the Center had said in response to the proposal that it is doing important work on this matter.

New definition of kilogram

Why in the discussion?

Scientists have changed the definition of kilograms, and more than 50 countries have given their approval to this new definition.

How is the kilogram defined?

  • At present, kilograms are defined by the weight of a platinum compound called 'Lee Grand K' . This type of coconut is protected in the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in Walt in the Western Paris of 1889.
  • Built in London, 'Le Grand's' is a cylinder of 4 centimeters made of 90% platinum and 10% iridium.
Decision taken at the conference organized on 'Wet and Measures'
  • Recently a large convention was organized on 'Weights and Measures' in Versailles of France and in this conference, voting was changed to change the definition of Kg, and after the voting, the decision to change the definition of Kg has been stamped.
  • During the conference, most scientists believed that kilograms should be defined on the basis of mechanical and electrical magnetic energy.

How will the impact of kilograms affect?

  • Changing the definition of kilograms will not affect the daily life of the people, but it will be practical use in industry and science as these are areas where precise measurement is required.

Need for change

  • The kilogram is one of the seven basic units in the International System. There are seven basic units- meters, kilograms, seconds, amperes, calvin, moles, candela, coulomb or kulam). Kilogram is the last basic unit in the international system, which has been defined by a physical object so far.
  • Since the substance of the atom can be easily removed from the physical objects or these objects can absorb molecules from the air, its volume has been changed several times in microgram.
  • This implies that a pattern (prototype) is used around the world to measure the kilogram, and this paradigm indicates an incorrect measure.
  • Generally, such slight changes can not be felt in life, but it has always been a major problem for accurate scientific calculations.

Forward path

  • In the coming time, the measurement of kilograms will be done with the help of Kibbal or Watt Balance (a device that uses accurate mechanical and electrical magnetic energy calculations).
  • After the new definition is implemented, the definition of kilograms will not be changed nor can it be harmed by any kind.
  • Kibbal will make available accurate measurements of one kg only to scientists anywhere in the world, not just in france.

Economic dysfunction and indemnity

Why in discussion The intervention by the government to improve credit availability for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) is a welcome move, which can be helpful in economic growth.  It is an acceptable fact that the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) have been severely affected by Demonetisation, as well as laws such as the Goods and Services Tax (GST). Important point Demonetisation raised the problem of getting cash payments and credits to the workers in front of these units, which was largely through informal channels. Similarly, the commodity and service tax (GST) has increased the compliance cost, depriving them of the inherent benefits of doing business in cash, free of paperwork. The fact is that the outstanding gross bank credit of MSMEs has actually reduced from Rs 4.71 lakh crore to Rs 4.69 crore between September 2014 and September 2018.  In spite of refinance schemes like the Prime Minister Money Scheme, the formal lending insti...
