Gs2- IR- Rights of indigenous people
Gs4- Ethics- How small gestures can shape attitudes and send global level messages?
Why is this news important?
⚠️NOTE : The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) was adopted by the General Assembly on Thursday, 13 September 2007, by a majority of 144 states in favour, 4 votes against (Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States)
BUT The Australian Government announced its support for the Declaration in 2009
SO this is a great symbolic gesture

✅Gs-4 : Ethics : Attitude- The power of a habit- This is helpful in answering questions on professional ethics
🔴Often Excellence is considered as the highest value of professional ethos.
🎖People who advocate and practice excellence become successful because of their desire, people generally go for what they like, so how much someone wants something is up to him or her.
🔴It is the obsession that pushes them to pursue excellence aided by a strong character that gets them the results they crave for- This comes from doing a thing out of habit- which again is because of our obsession to do it

✅Gs4: Enviornmental ethics + Emotional intelligence+ probity in governance...
This forest official from mudumalai broke down after the elephant passed away...
It takes a compassionate heart to shed tears for an animal.... It's a journey of a person from a human being to being humane. Let's not reduce IFoS to a mere exam - a back up in case we don't make it to the other coveted civil services.....
We have thousands of aspirants amongst us who would be much more passionate about wildlife conservation and living that secluded life conserving the wealth of our planet- forests. But somehow, the society we live in doesn't give these kind of forest officials the kind of respect they deserve. As students aspiring for jobs in bureaucracy, it's all the more important that we exhibit that compassion and show some respect towards this service . IFos, may not be everyone's cup of tea but it's the dark knight that deserves much more recognition than it gets now! This is dedicated to all the future forest officers
