Copyright Granted on the Work of Researchers at University Business School, Panjab University, Chandigarh

Professor Renu Vig, Vice Chancellor, Panjab University, Chandigarh, felicitated the Team comprising Prof. Keshav Malhotra, Dean Faculty of Business Management and Commerce, Prof. Purva Kansal, and Ms. Neelam Chauhan of University Business School, Panjab University, who have got their work, entitled ESG Index for Measuring Comprehensiveness of ESG reporting in India, protected under The Copyright Act. The Team has been actively pursuing their research on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Issues faced by Indian Companies. Professor Paramjeet Kaur, Chairperson, UBS and Prof. Namita Gupta, Director, Public Relations were also present on the occasion.

The work entailed in the copyright will help the Policy maker in India to guide companies in their ESG reporting practices by assessing the quality and quantity of ESG disclosure published by them. The preliminary coding based on 2020-2021 data has indicated that Indian companies are excelling in governance reporting but need to improve their environmental and social reporting. Though the companies are using other international indexes or framework for providing their ESG information, but none provided a comprehensive common platform for comparison, for which the new copyright index will help bring them all on one common comparable platform. Accordingly, the investors can easily make comparisons of the ESG information provided by different companies as well as industry. Therefore, now they canmake informed decisions based on reporting scores obtained using the developed ESG index. Besides publishing and presenting their work, the team plans to take their research to next level and also transferring the copyright for better assessment both at local and global level.

प्रदेश की शिक्षा व्यवस्था का बुरा हाल : सुरेंद्र राठी

  • घर-घर जाकर नववर्ष की बधाई दी : सुरेंद्र राठी 

संदीप सैनी, डेमोक्रेटिक फ्रंट, पंचकुला – 01 जनवरी   :

आज नववर्ष के आगमन पर आम आदमी पार्टी ने घर-घर जाकर पोस्टर बांटे। पूरे शहर में नववर्ष के कार्ड वितरित किए और लोगो को पार्टी की नीतियों से अवगत करवाया। लोकसभा उपाध्यक्ष एवं राष्ट्रीय कार्यकारी परिषद सदस्य सुरेंद्र राठी ने कहा कि लोगों को हरियाणा की बदहाल स्थिति के बदलाव के लिए प्रदेश की जनता को जागरूक किया। उन्होंने कहा कि खट्टर सरकार में प्रदेश की शिक्षा व्यवस्था का बुरा हाल है। 30 हजार शिक्षकों के पद खाली हैं। 1585 स्कूलों में शौचालय नहीं है।131 स्कूलों में पीने के पानी की व्यवस्था नहीं है।

236 स्कूलों में बिजली के कनेक्शन नहीं हैं। 8240 कक्षाओं की कमी है। यही बदहाली चिकित्सा के क्षेत्र में भी है। मुख्यमंत्री और स्वास्थ्य मंत्री की लड़ाई के कारण चिकित्सकों की सुनवाई नहीं हो रही है। आज से चिकित्सक हड़ताल पर जा रहे हैं।

उन्होंने कहा कि एनसीआरबी की रिपोर्ट के अनुसार, 2021 के मुकाबले 2022 में नशे से ग्रसित 3738 ज्यादा लोगों ने आत्महत्या की है। इसका मुख्य कारण रोजगार नहीं मिलना है। खट्टर सरकार युवाओं को रोजगार देने में पूरी तरह से असफल रही है। 9 साल के कार्यकाल में 30 से ज्यादा बार पेपर लीक हुए हैं। पूरे हरियाणा में नशे का कारोबार ने पैर पसार चुका है। उन्होंने कहा कि पूरे प्रदेश के किसान बीजेपी की नीतियों से बुरी तरह परेशान है। फसल बिक्री के समय सरकार पोर्टल पोर्टल का खेल खेलने लग जाती है। बाढ़ से फसल बर्बादी का मुआवजा अभी तक नहीं मिला। यमुना के साथ लगते जिलों की कृषि योग्य भूमि भी रेत से अटी पड़ी है। जबकि बीजेपी सरकार ने  किसानों की आय की बजाय कर्जा दुगना करने का काम किया है।

इस अवसर पर माइनॉरिटी सेल के अध्यक्ष शहाबद्दीन व्यापार मंडल के अध्यक्ष के जेबी धारीवाल अतुल कुमार विनोद कुमार धरमवीर,रघबीर दलाल दीपक कुमार रविंदर खैरवाल करण ठाकुर श्यामलाल राजबीर दलाल सुरेश गर्ग सत्यवान फोर
