🏛 Supreme Court's Landmark Ruling on Persons with Disabilities (PwDs)
The Supreme Court has established comprehensive guidelines to prevent the stereotyping and discrimination of persons with disabilities (PwDs) in visual media, including films and documentaries. This decision arose during a plea regarding the film Aaankh Micholi, which was criticized for its derogatory portrayal of PwDs. The Court, however, chose not to interfere with the CBFC's decision to clear the film for public screening.
⚖️ SC's Ruling Against Insensitive Representation
Guidelines Issued: The Supreme Court laid down guidelines to ensure respectful and authentic representation of individuals with disabilities in visual media.
Emphasis: The ruling stresses the importance of inclusivity and realism in cinematic portrayals.
🌟 Significance of the Ruling
Inclusivity: Highlights the need for genuine representation of marginalized groups.
Creative Freedom: Asserts that creative freedom should not permit lampooning, stereotyping, misrepresenting, or disparaging individuals with disabilities.
⚠️ Shortcomings of the Ruling
Implementation Challenges: There may be difficulties in effectively enforcing the guidelines.
Concerns Over Creative Freedom: Some may argue that the ruling restricts artistic expression.
➡️ Way Forward: 7-Point Guidelines
The guidelines emphasize the necessity of accurate and respectful representation of PwDs in visual media.

Whenever I read this, I think about the word: collective consciousness
What is the impact of this collective consciousness? - it is the guru that teaches us lessons- it is the collective experience of the mistakes each one of us makes... And if we are open to learn from them, a new door always opens and let's the light in... no matter how dark it seems ...
We are what we learn from others and I thank every guru in my life on this day- Happy Guru purnima to all- let this day be a reminder to listen to what others have to teach🙏🙂

The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Hi,
This is Sushant, ASO in Central Secretariat Service (CSS), currently posted in MNRE.
Since SSC CGL is approaching, these are my 12 rules to clear this exam where it's certainty is more compared to CSE.
1.Daily One Mock till 20 days prior to the exam. For the last 20 days, frequency could be 2-3 mocks per day. Platform: TestBook Lifetime subcription for SSC CGL (It's way cheaper & probably very close to actual questions).
2. Post-Mock Analysis - (I) Learn/ mug up the methodology used to solve particular problem; (II) Keep the list of topics where you're getting the questions wrong - there's fixed set of questions in CGL.
3. Identify the topics of Maths which you generally feel uncomfortable with and schedule one lecture of maths daily for difficult topics - they are bulky lectures. Devote proper time to formulae sheet.
4. There are three YT channels:
I. Abhinay Maths - Algebra
II. Gagan Patap - Geometry
III. Nitu Ma'am - English
(Depending on analysis of mocks i.e. Rule 2(II), your weakness, you may choose to watch and finish those respective topics).
5. Identify few topics in English where you are constantly going wrong after 3 mocks.
6. Watch Nitu Ma'am video for those topics. There's also Ananya Ma'am on Test book youtube for English lectures. Those are one hour videos each so 25 mins mein ho jata hai.
7. Attempt Order for questions can be: Reasoning (20 mins)- English (10 mins)- GS (5 mins) - Maths (25 mins). This was mine.
8. PYQs of last 3 years to be done - but for every slot i.e. 20-30 slots per year.
9. For GS, there are 2-3 PDFs of Adda 24-7 (Generally for Authors, Awards, Sports, etc). But you can go through Yellow Lucent Book on the side. Also make notes of GS points through mocks questions.
10. For GS, there's Abhinay Sir's YouTube channel which I referred, daily one video.
11. For reasoning, try increasing accuracy by solving more and more questions. You identify the type of questions. You identify trick for those questions. Done. Execute.
12. I must tell you, your attempt has to be 85+ in the SSC CGL. You may choose to skip few questions in GS.
Good thing about SSC is that it has fixed number of types of questions. Use of pen has to be minimised towards the end of prep, and should rely on mental calculation more.
The whole reason of doing mocks is increasing accuracy of those 85+ questions.
I think this is it.
