SUMMARY:Ambasada w New Delhi nie nadąża z wystawianiem wiz. Hindusi\, Nepalczycy i Banglijczycy chcą pracować w Polsce
DESCRIPTION:Magdalena Cedro \n10.09.2018\, 07:11 | Aktualizacja: 10.09.2018\, 07:21 \n \nPracodawcy w Polsce w poszukiwaniu rąk do pracy werbują pracowników z krajów Dalekiego Wschodu. / ShutterStock \nPlacówka w New Delhi pęka w szwach od wniosków o wizy. Polskie firmy\, które zrekrutowały pracowników\, muszą uzbroić się w cierpliwość. \nNawet 25 tys. osób może oczekiwać na wystawienie wizy z prawem do pracy w Polsce przez ambasadę w New Delhi w Indiach. To osoby zwerbowane już przez polskie firmy\, mające ważne pozwolenia na pracę wystawione przez urzędy wojewódzkie. Na przyjazd do Polski czekają Hindusi\, Nepalczycy i Banglijczycy. Część z nich bezskutecznie próbuje zarejestrować swój wniosek o wizę już od ośmiu miesięcy. Problemem są braki kadrowe. Wydział konsularny w ambasadzie w New Delhi liczy cztery osoby\, dlatego placówka od początku roku wydała zaledwie 3\,5 tys. wiz pracowniczych. Zainteresowania nie wytrzymują serwery Ministerstwa Spraw Zagranicznych. Po tym\, jak na skrzynkę e-mailową jednego dnia trafiło ponad 120 tys. wiadomości\, system zgłoszeń przestał działać. Teraz ubiegający się o wizę mogą jedynie korzystać z systemu e-Konsulat. Jak jednak donoszą agencje pośrednictwa pracy\, strona zawiesza się na chwilę przed tym\, gdy wiadomo jest\, iż zostaną udostępnione nowe wolne miejsca do składania wniosków. To wszystko potwierdza\, że migracje do Polski to już nie tylko Ukraina czy Białoruś. Jej drugim filarem jest subkontynent indyjski. \n? Za dużym napływem zgłoszeń stoi nie tylko wielkie zainteresowanie wyjazdem do Polski\, ale też działalność różnego rodzaju naciągaczy. Często są to lokalni pośrednicy\, którzy po zarejestrowaniu się w systemie próbują odsprzedawać wolne miejsca osobom czekającym na wizę ? zaznacza Artur Lompart\, dyrektor biura prasowego MSZ i były konsul w New Delhi. Rozwiązaniem ma być outsourcing wizowy ? przyjmowaniem wniosków będą się zajmować zewnętrzne firmy zlokalizowane w kilku punktach. \nPolscy pracodawcy natychmiast potrzebują rąk do pracy. Tylko w tym miesiącu opublikowanych zostało 120 tys. ofert. Pośrednicy liczą na Filipiny i Wietnam\, ale tam kluczowe mogą być problemy z rekrutacją. \nWielka kolejka z Indii do Warszawy \nPracodawcy w Polsce w poszukiwaniu rąk do pracy werbują pracowników z krajów Dalekiego Wschodu. W czołówce są Nepal\, Indie i Bangladesz. Jak pisaliśmy w zeszłym tygodniu\, gwałtownie rośnie liczba pozwoleń na pracę wydawanych obcokrajowcom z tych właśnie krajów. W pierwszym półroczu tego roku urzędy wojewódzkie obywatelom tych trzech krajów wydały łącznie 16 tys. dokumentów umożliwiających podjęcie pracy w Polsce. \n  \nAle samo pozwolenie na pracę nie wystarczy. Obcokrajowcy\, którzy mają już niezbędny dokument i zagwarantowaną posadę w polskiej firmie\, potrzebują jeszcze wizy zarobkowej. I tu zaczyna się problem. Ambasada w New Delhi tonie w zalewie wniosków. Placówka poza Indiami północnymi (za południową część kraju odpowiada konsulat w Mumbaju) obsługuje Nepal\, Bangladesz\, Bhutan\, Sri Lankę\, Afganistan i Malediwy. Według naszych informacji na wizę pracowniczą może czekać w tej chwili 25 tys. osób. Tymczasem wydział konsularny w ambasadzie liczy cztery osoby\, przez pierwsze siedem miesięcy tego roku placówka w New Delhi wystawiła 3\,5 tys. wiz z prawem do pracy. \nAgencja pośrednictwa pracy Eastsource Recruitment (ER) od pięciu tygodni usiłuje zarejestrować wnioski o wizy dla zrekrutowanych Nepalczyków w internetowym systemie e-Konsulat. Bezskutecznie. ? Terminy zwalniane są we wtorki i piątki\, ale system zawiesza się regularnie na kilka minut przed otwarciem okna\, więc do tej pory wniosków nie udało nam się zarejestrować ? powiedział Przemysław Zgała z ER. Jego agencja uzyskała pozwolenia na pracę w polskich urzędach dla 118 Nepalczyków na dwa lata\, terminy już płyną. Osoby te miały przyjechać do pracy w branży produkcyjnej. ? Ludzie czekają\, są gotowi przyjechać\, ale nie mogą. Nie mamy pojęcia\, czy w czasie obowiązywania pozwoleń uda się te wizy dostać ? opowiada. \n  \n  \nCzas oczekiwania na wizę w New Delhi wynosi dziewięć miesięcy i więcej ? wynika z doświadczeń agencji zatrudnienia Trenkwalder Polska. Firma pod koniec zeszłego roku zrekrutowała 80 osób z Bangladeszu. Wszystkim udało się załatwić pozwolenie na pracę w urzędach wojewódzkich\, ale tylko 11 osób do Polski przyjechało. \n? Tylko im udało się umówić na kolejkę do złożenia wniosku o wydanie wizy pracowniczej ? mówi Ewelina Glińska-Kołodziej z Trenkwaldera. \nDo 9 sierpnia działał system zgłoszeń e-mailowych. Co czwartek przydzielano terminy dla adresatów pierwszych 250 wiadomości\, każdorazowo wpływało po kilkadziesiąt tysięcy e-maili. 9 sierpnia padł rekord ? na skrzynkę przesłano 120 tys. wiadomości\, co doprowadziło do przeciążenia serwera MSZ. Od tamtej pory system nie działa\, wnioskującym pozostaje e-Konsulat. \n  \n? Za dużym napływem zgłoszeń stoi nie tylko duże zainteresowanie wyjazdem do Polski\, ale też działalność różnego rodzaju naciągaczy. Często są to lokalni pośrednicy\, którzy po zarejestrowaniu się w systemie próbują odsprzedawać wolne miejsca osobom czekającym na wizę ? mówi Artur Lompart\, dyrektor biura prasowego w resorcie i były konsul w New Delhi. Z listów wnioskodawców wizowych wynika\, że cena za wolny termin waha się od 1 do 3 tys. euro. ? Walczymy z tymi praktykami\, sprawdzając listy\, usuwając fałszywe wnioski\, blokując pośredników\, ale to pomaga tylko na chwilę ? powiedział. \nRozwiązaniem ma być outsourcing wizowy ? przyjmowaniem wniosków będą zajmować się firmy zewnętrzne działające w rożnych lokalizacjach. Według Lomparta trwają prace nad udzieleniem zamówienia publicznego. Pomysł nie jest nowy. Podobne rozwiązania zostały już wprowadzone w Rosji i na Ukrainie\, centra wizowe prowadzone przez firmy zewnętrzne umożliwiały interesantom złożenie wniosku wizowego i odebranie paszportu bez potrzeby stawienia się osobiście w konsulacie. \nPracodawcy liczą\, że głód rąk do pracy uda się zaspokoić w innych azjatyckich krajach. Perspektywiczne są Wietnam i Filipiny\, chociaż na razie tłumów nie ma ? w pierwszym półroczu pozwolenia na pracę otrzymało 517 Wietnamczyków i 866 Filipińczyków. Na Filipinach pracownika można pozyskać jedynie za pośrednictwem państwowego urzędu. Ma to zmienić umowa z władzami Filipin\, którą negocjuje polski rząd. Glińska-Kołodziej z Trenkwaldera dodaje\, że rekrutacja pracowników w tym kraju wiąże się z wysokimi kosztami\, bo zwerbowana osoba wraz ze swoim opiekunem musi przyjechać do polskiego konsulatu w Kuala Lumpur w Malezji. Koszt całej operacji to ok. 5 tys. zł. Z kolei przyczyną małego zainteresowania Wietnamem są trudności językowe ? o ile w Indiach i na Filipinach angielski jest językiem urzędowym\, a w Nepalu i Bangladeszu używa się go jako drugiego\, o tyle w Wietnamie trudno jest o pracownika ze znajomością angielskiego. \nTagi: Hindusi\, PIK RYNEK PRACY\, zatrudnianie cudzoziemców\, Indie\, praca cudzoziemców\, rynek pracy

SUMMARY:Droga do Indii
DESCRIPTION:Losy Polski znane były maharadży Jam Sahebowi Digvijaysinhji jeszcze przed wojną: poznał je dzięki stryjowi\, maharadży Ranjitsinhji\, który w latach 1920?1923 był delegatem Indii na posiedzeniach Ligi Narodów i wówczas zaprzyjaźnił się z Ignacym Paderewskim. Młody Digvijaysinhji bywał ze stryjem w Szwajcarii i wówczas miał okazję spotkać polskiego wybitnego muzyka i męża stanu. Później sam w Londynie w czasie wojny poznał m.in. gen. Władysława Sikorskiego. Darzył sympatią Polaków i ich losy nie były mu obojętne.

SUMMARY:INDEPENDENCE DAY ? 15 AUGUST 2018
DESCRIPTION:INDEPENDENCE DAY OF INDIA \nIndependence Day is an annual observance celebrated every year on 15th of August. India?s Independence Day is a day of great significance for the people of India. At this day India got freedom from the British rule after long years of slavery. It has been declared as the National and Gazetted Holiday all across the India in order to independently commemorate the independence of country from British Empire on 15th of August in 1947. \nIt was not so easy for the India to get freedom from the Britishers however; various great people and freedom fighters of India made it a truth. They had sacrificed their lives in attaining the freedom for their future generations without worrying about their comfort\, rest and freedom. They planned and acted upon various Independence Movements including violent and nonviolent resistance to get complete freedom. However\, later independence Pakistan was partitioned from India which was accompanied by violent riots. That horrible riot was the reason of mass casualties and dislocation of people (more than 15 million) from their homes. \nAt this day\, all the national\, states and local government?s offices\, banks\, post offices\, markets\, stores\, businesses\, organizations\, etc become closed. However\, public transport is totally unaffected. It is celebrated in the capital of India with big enthusiasm however it is also celebrated in all the schools\, colleges and other educational institutions by the students and teachers including public community and society. \n15 AUGUST 2018 \nIndependence Day of India will be celebrated by the people all over the India on 15th of August 2018\, at Wednesday. This year in 2018\, India is celebrating its 72nd Independence Day to pay tribute and remember all the freedom fighters who had contributed a lot and fought for the Independence of India. \nThe first Independence Day was celebrated in India on 15th of August in 1947. \nWHAT IS SPECIAL ON 72ND INDIA?S INDEPENDENCE DAY 2018 \nIt is Plastic Ban by all Means. \nAs per the Media\, \nThe State Government of Uttar Pradesh has banned the production and use of Polythene bags of 50 microns from 15th July 2018\, followed by a ban of all the plastic or thermocol products such as cups\, glasses or plates etc with effect from 15th August 2018. Even all the disposable polybags will be completely banned for usage with effect from 2nd October 2018 on event of Gandhi Jayanti. \nIt is a good initiative on this year?s Independence Day by the State Government towards protecting our environment and cleaning our Rivers and water bodies. Lately the State Government of Uttar Pradesh has realized the perils of plastic usage and the damage that it causes to the environment and health of humans and animals. Along with being a hazard to the Environment such waste is consumed by stray Cows and other felines posing a hazard to their health and life. Anyone found using such non degradable plastic material is liable to be fined or penalized with imprisonment.

SUMMARY:FIFA World Cup 2018: Robert Lewandowski ? the body and the soul of Poland
DESCRIPTION:Written by Gaurav Bhatt | Updated: June 8\, 2018 9:51:40 am \nThey call him ?The Body? in Deutschland\, but Robert Lewandowski?s is an ugly duckling story. The sporting DNA was never under question. Father Krzysztof was a judo champion and a second-division footballer\, while mother Iwona played professional volleyball and coached daughter Milena to Poland?s Under-21 team. Young Lewandowski excelled in cross-country running\, practised judo\, volleyball\, handball and gymnastics\, but was written off in football. \nAt the age of nine\, Lewandowski joined hometown club Varsovia Warsaw\, where he played for seven years. Recalling the bony youngster\, Krzysztof Sikorski\, coach of the club?s junior side\, told the UEFA website in 2013: ?His legs were like sticks\, and I was always scared that others would break them. I kept urging him to put some weight on and eat more bacon sandwiches. It didn?t stop him from being a prolific scorer\, though. I remember one season we scored 158 goals\, and he got half of them.? \n  \nLewandowski eventually made it to Legia Warsaw\, his father?s favourite club. Krzysztof died in 2005\, months before his son scored five goals in 32 minutes (a feat he would better years later when he scored five in nine minutes against Wolfsburg) and win a tournament with Legia?s reserves. A few weeks later\, he was deemed too short and skinny and sold to third division team Znicz Pruszków. Sporting a chip on his shoulder\, Lewandowski took the team to the second division\, and nearly to the top tier\, scoring 38 goals in two seasons. \nFranciszek Smuda\, coach at Lech Poznan\, signed Lewandowski\, who in turn topped the scoring charts. Then-Premier League club Blackburn Rovers came with an attractive offer\, but Sam Allardyce?s charge was thwarted by Borussia Dortmund\, with a little help from mother nature. \nIn April 2010\, Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull (or ay-yah-FYAH?-plah-yer-kuh-duhl\, if that makes it easier) erupted\, spewing ash kilometres into the air and disrupting the north-west Europe airspace for a week. Lewandowski couldn?t make it to England\, and eventually signed for Dortmund for less than ?5 million. The rest is recent history. Lewandowski won the Bundesliga with Dortmund in his first two years\, joined Bayern Munich in a free transfer in 2014 and has lifted the trophy four times since\, scoring 180 goals in the process. \nUnder the guidance of wife Anna Stachurska\, bronze medallist at the 2009 Karate World Cup and a prominent sports nutritionist\, the scrawny Pole became a strapping 6? presence on the field. Life in the national colours\, though\, has been a lot more testing. \n  \nLewandowski made his senior debut for Poland in 2008\, and played under Leo Beenhakker\, the aforementioned Smuda and Waldemar Fornalik in the next five years. The game of musical chairs meant he could never really find his identity or place in the team. \nBeenhakker led the team to its first Euro campaign in 2008\, but didn?t think Lewandowski was ready for the travails. He used the striker four times during qualification for the 2010 World Cup\, and was sacked when the team failed badly. Under his former club coach Smuda and playing on home soil at Euro 2012\, Lewandowski scored against Greece but couldn?t help the team out of the group. Smuda resigned. \nPoland didn?t qualify for the 2014 World Cup either\, and Fornalik got the sack. Polish journalist Maciej Luczak recalls the national team?s struggles. \n?There was a lot of speculation that Lewandowski wasn?t happy with the national trainer and felt too frustrated to continue\,? Luczak told The Indian Express. ?On one hand he was becoming a top star in European football\, but the many misses for Poland disappointed him to the point of quitting. To make it worse\, the style of play wasn?t really suited for his game.? \nAt Dortmund\, everything went through Lewandowski\, a poacher with the prerequisites for a classic number nine. He capitalised on the aggressive\, counter-attacking style of Jurgen Klopp\, with Marco Reus and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the wings\, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan behind him. Later\, at Pep Guardiola?s Bayern\, he also learnt to have his back to goal a lot of the time\, using his strength in the air\, technical skills and physique. The supply would come through Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery (and even more so from Kingsley Coman and Douglas Costa) and he would have Thomas Mueller as partner. \nBut Fornalik?s Poland played with a static 4-3-2-1 formation\, where Lewandowski would have to fend off multiple opponents to receive a pass. A scoring drought ensued\, resulting in a visibly fractured relationship between the coach and his star. By the time Fornalik left\, Lewandowski had become a disillusioned\, unsure striker who would be heavily jeered by Polish fans. Enter Adam Nawalka \nPolish football?s golden age came behind the Iron Curtain. They won the 1972 Olympic gold\, finished third at their first World Cup in 1974 and repeated the feat in 1982. In 1978\, they topped the group but lost to Brazil. Among the class of 1978 was Nawalka\, a 20-year-old midfielder who stood out due to his dynamism and personality ? a hipster who would don branded clothes bought overseas. Recurrent injuries forced him to retire in 1985\, and he left for USA\, where he trimmed trees for $12 an hour and played for semi-professional club Polish-American Eagles on Sundays. \nAfter the fall of communism\, Nawalka returned in 1990 to run a car dealership and a jeans shop\, before earning his coaching licence in 1995. His coaching career included three stints at hometown club Wisla Krakow before leading Gornik Zabrze to promotion six months after taking over in 2010. Gornik was at the top of the league standings when he took over the national team in October 2013. \nTactically\, his first notable course of action was to take the armband from Jakub Blaszczykowski and hand it to Lewandowski\, opting to build the team around the superstar. He also employed the more conventional 4-2-3-1 and 4-4-2 formations\, which allowed Lewandowski to strike up a tremendous partnership with Arkadiusz Milik and receive more balls from Blaszczykowski and Kamil Grosicki. \nLewandowski hasn?t looked back since. His first 18 goals for Poland came in 57 games; after Nawalka?s arrival\, he has scored 34 (almost two-thirds of the total 52) in 36 matches. He equalled David Healy?s record of 13 goals in qualifying for UEFA Euro 2016\, where he scored two minutes into the quarter-final as Poland were beaten by eventual champions Portugal on penalties. World Cup qualifying was more prolific\, as he scored a European record of 16 goals. \nRyan Hubbard\, a journalist working on a book on the history of Polish football\, claims Nawalka has miraculously steered the Polish ship in the right direction. \n?He has also been lucky to have at his disposal several young prospects who have actually progressed beyond their potential ? something which has been rare in the past. Of course\, the glue which holds the entire squad together is the captain\, Lewandowski. Without both his influence and goal-scoring abilities\, it would have been hard to imagine Poland?s rise being quite so meteoric\,? Hubbard said. \nHowever\, going into the World Cup\, there are questions on the defensive constitution\, with injured star Kamil Glik adding to the concerns. Goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny spent most of last season as an understudy to Gianluigi Buffon\, while Lukasz Fabianski has been toiling away with Swansea. \nIt?s fair to say that Poland is more a one-man team than either Argentina or Portugal. Lewandowski admitted as much last week\, when he said\, ?I know that sometimes I?ll have to do the donkey work for the good of the team.? It?s more than that. In Russia\, he would have to be both the body and the soul for Poland. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Pokaz specjalny: Padmaavat - godz. 16:00 17.03.2018 - Kino ARS - ul. Św. Tomasza 11\, 31-018 Kraków
DESCRIPTION:Reżyseria: Sanjay Leela Bhansali \nWystępują: Deepika Padukone\, Ranveer Singh\, Shahid Kapoor \nData premiery: 17.03.2018 \nKraj produkcji: Indie \nPadmaavat to film inspirowany XVI wieczną powieścią Malika Muhammada Jayasi o tym samym tytule. To historia królowej Padmavati\, która była uważana za najpiękniejszą kobietę świata. Poślubia władcę Mewaru\, radżę Ratana Singha\, dla którego honor jest najważniejszą cnotą człowieka. Wieści o urodzie królowej docierają do Alauddina Khiljiego\, władcy Sułtanatu Delhijskiego\, który pragnie zdobyć Padmavati. Jego obsesja doprowadza do okropnych wydarzeń w tym jauharu\, czyli honorowego samospalenia\, aby uniknąć niewoli. \nFilm jest do dzisiaj bardzo kontrowersyjny w Indiach\, ponieważ Padmavati uważana jest przez niektóre środowiska za boginię\, symbol odwagi i honoru. Plotki o romansie Padmavati i Alauddina w filmie doprowadziły do protestów\, ale i zamieszek i tym samym wstrzymano jego premierę. Zmieniono nazwę z Padmavati na Padmaavat\, aby podkreślić\, że to ekranizacja a nie film historyczny. W niektórych stanach zabroniono wyświetlania filmu a jego premiera wywołała panikę w kalendarzu premier i przesunięto premiery wielu filmów. \nSanjay Leela Bhansali jest wspaniałym reżyserem\, który bardzo dużą uwagę skupia na estetyce. Jest artystą\, który wyciąga to co najpiękniejsze w indyjskiej kulturze. Znany jest też z zamiłowania do perfekcji\, dlatego jego filmy zachwycają. Devdas (2002) był pokazywany w Cannes a Bajirao Mastani (2015) podbiło serca polskiej publiczności. \nDeepika Padukone\, Ranveer Singh i Shahid Kapoor grają główne role\, czyli Padmavati\, Alauddina Khilji i Ratana Singha. Są to znakomici aktorzy\, którzy nie boją się żadnych ról a ich gra aktorska jest często nagradzana przez krytyków.

SUMMARY:Indian girl sings in 102 languages\, breaks record
DESCRIPTION:Published on: 4:40 pm\, February 24\, 2018 by: mattersindia.com \nA 12-year-old Indian girl managed to break two world records after singing in 102 different languages during a concert that went on for 6 hours and 15 minutes in Dubai. \nSuchetha Satish is a seventh grader at the Indian High School in Dubai. She learned to sing songs in 80 languages in just over a year and kept learning more languages as well. \nShe began learning Karnatic music at the age of four\, as she belongs to a family of music lovers. The talented girl was already studying Hindi-based music but started to understand foreign languages in late 2016. \nAccording to the Guinness World Records\, Dr Kesiraju Srinivas\, holds the current record for singing in 76 languages at the Gandhi Hills\, Andhra Pradesh\, India on June 2-3\, 2008. \nShe shocked and surprised the audience in a concert that took place on January 25 at the Indian Consulate in Dubai. \n?My first song in a foreign language was in Japanese\,? Suchetha told Gulf News\, in November 2017. ?My father?s friend\, a Japanese dermatologist\, came to Dubai a year ago. When she came home\, she sang a Japanese song. I liked it very much and learnt it.? \nSince she was studying in Dubai\, she started learning Arabic songs\, followed by Tagalog. \nShe began learning new songs in new languages every single week and as she shifted towards double digits\, she believed a world record was definitely possible. \n?Usually I take around two hours to learn a song. If it is easy to pronounce\, I can learn it fast. If it is not a lengthy song\, I can finish in half an hour\,? Suchetha said. \nSongs in French\, Hungarian\, and German were apparently the most difficult to master\, taking Suchetha about two days each. Her favorite songs are the ones in Maori\, Armenian and Slovakian. \nThus\, she set a new Guinness record for singing in the most different language during a concert and for the longest live concert performed by a child\, a record held by Romanian Andra Gogan\, for a 3 hour and 20 minutes performance. \nThe following are the list of languages Suchetha Satish sang during her world record performance: Maithili\, Sanskrit\, Afrikaans\, Albanian\, Assamese\, Azerbaijani\, Badaga\, Balochi\, Basque\, Belarusian\, Bengali\, Bhojpuri\, Bhutanese\, Bulgarian\, Cantonese\, Croatian\, Czech\, Danish\, Dhivehi\, Dogri\, Dutch\, English\, Estonian\, Finnish\, French\, Garhwali\, Georgian\, German\, Greek\, Guarani\, Gujarati\, Haryanvi\, Hebrew\, Hungarian\, Irish\, Javanese\, Kannada\, Kashmiri\, Kazakh\, Khmer\, Kinyarwanda\, Kokborok\, Konkani\, Korean\, Kyrgyz\, Lithuanian\, Macedonian\, Malagasy\, Malay\, Maltese\, Mandarin\, Mongolian\, Manipuri\, Maori\, Marathi\, Nepali\, Norwegian\, Odia\, Persian\, Polish\, Punjabi\, Quechua\, Rajasthani\, Romanian\, Russian\, Serbian\, Sindhi\, Sinhalese\, Slovak\, Slovenian\, Somali\, Swahili\, Swedish\, Tagalog\, Tajiki\, Tamil\, Thai\, Tibetan\, Tulu\, Ukrainian\, Urdu\, Uzbek\, Vietnamese\, Welsh\, Xhosa\, Yakut\, Yoruba\, Zulu\, Italian\, Japanese\, Icelandic\, Kurdish\, Madurese\, Pashto\, Latvian\, Turkish\, Armenian\, Spanish\, Portugese\, Malayalam\, Arabic\, Hindi.

SUMMARY:History of Valivade - Kolhapur Polish settlement camp in India\, 1942 -1948
DESCRIPTION:Below find – the brief history of the Polish refugees in India 1942 – 1948\, in the Valivade – Kolhapur camp introduced by Mr. Andrzej Jan Chendyński\, President of the Association of Poles in India 1942 – 48. \n  \n\n\nOn 15th August 1947 in\nthe Valivade-Kolhapur Polish settlement camp  \n\n Polish Refugees celebrated 1st India Independence Day with the Indian People.\n\n\n\n\nBetween 1940 and 1941 after the Soviet invasion of eastern Poland there were mass deportations of over 1 million Polish people to Siberia and Kazakhstan.   \nThousands of them died in inhumane conditions.\n\n\nIn 1942 an amnesty was negotiated.   \nGeneral Władysław Anders led the Polish Army out of the Soviet Union to Iran and took with him about 40\,000 children\, adolescents and women.\n\n\nThe civilian population was initially billeted in camps in Teheran. They were transferred to Karachi and from there to countries which had agreed to take them.   \nThe first to do so was India in 1942.\n\n\n\nIn July 1943 in Valivade-Kolhapur the biggest settlement camp in India was set up\, with over 5\,000 children\, adolescents and women. Their fathers\, brothers and husbands had been murdered in Katyń\, or were fighting in the War ? including in Italy at Monte Cassino\, where the Maratha Light Infantry Regiment from Kolhapur also fought. \n\n\n\nThe Camp?s organisation and administration was entrusted by the authorities in Delhi to the Poles\, who set up the infrastructure required for such a large community. \n\n  \n\n\nDue to the large number of children\, four primary schools\, a middle school\, a secondary school and a vocational school were set up. There were also courses in tailoring\, cookery\, printing and bookbinding.\n\nThere was scouting ? including interaction with scouts from Kolhapur and Miraj. A church was built. There was a post office\, security\, a fire brigade and a cinema. Local people helped us with everything and we had daily contact with them. \n\n\nThe Valivade Camp had two sections: an orphanage for children and adolescents; and the so-called ?civilian area? where women with children lived independently. \n\n\nResidents bought food from Indian shops and markets. They used the services of local craftsmen: shoemakers\, tailors\, cleaners\, water porters \n\n\nIndian teachers taught English in our schools. Indians helped in the hospital and clinic. Many Indians learnt enough Polish for day-to-day communication and one post office worker spoke it fluently. \n  \n\nIn Valivade the locals made us welcome and called our camp ?Little Poland in India?. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe Maharaja Siwadzi V visited the orphanage.   \nThe theatre group gave a performance at his palace in Kolhapur.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter his death in 1946\, scouts were present at the coronation of the new Maharaja Chatrapati. \n\nIn Valivade we found out about passive resistance – Gandhi?s philosophy of liberation which brought India her independence. We joined the Indians in celebrating 15th August 1947: Indian Independence Day. \n\n\n\n\n  \n\nThe Indians hoped that we would be able to return to a free homeland. But Poland lost its eastern territories after the War: the part of Poland where most of us came from. \n\n\n\nWhen the War ended\, the inhabitants of the Camp were dispersed across the world. The last of us left India in 1948. Only about 10% returned to Poland. Many settled in England\, Italy\, America\, Canada\, South Africa and Australia. \n \nThe erection of a monument in Kolhapur was done in 1998 as an expression of our gratitude to India.\n\n\nMr. Andrzej Jan Chendyński \nPresident of the Association of Poles in India 1942 – 48.

They have ?booked? a flight to the Red Planet via Nasa?s InSight (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations\, Geodesy and Heat Transport) mission slated for launch on May 5\, 2018. \nNasa states that those who submitted their names were provided online ?boarding passes? for the mission. \nThe names are being etched on a silicon wafer microchip using an electron beam to form letters with lines one one-thousandth the diameter of a human hair. This chip will then be attached to the top hull of the lander. \nSeveral Indians responded to Nasa?s call for names+ for the Mars mission. The total number of names received by Nasa from all over the world is 2\,429\,807. \nAccording to Nasa\, India ranks third in the global list with regard to the number of names submitted for the Mars mission. \nThe first is the US with 676\,773 names followed by China with 262\,752 names. India stands at number three. \nSpace experts point out that US leading the list is not surprising since it is\, after all\, a Nasa mission. However\, they do say that the fact that India is next to China is a matter of significance. They attribute India being ranked among the first three nations to two factors: the excitement and interest in Mars flights triggered by India?s ground-breaking Mangalyaan mission+ \, and the overall strengthening of India-US space ties. \nAndrew Good of Nasa?s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) told Times of India that the deadline to submit names was last week and ?we are no longer accepting submissions?. \nSlated for landing near the Mars equator on November 26\, 2018\, it is a 720-day mission\, which will gather data on the Martian interior by monitoring Marsquakes. \nNasa states that InSight?s role is not only to study Mars\, but also to gain broader insight into the formation of rocky planets in the entire solar system. \nPublished on: 1:20 pm\, November 13\, 2017 by: mattersindia.com

SUMMARY:GOOD MAHARAJA
DESCRIPTION:First look: Sanjay Dutt is a royal and elegant king in Omung Kumar?s next\, The Good Maharaja \nTitled The Good Maharaja\, the film is a biopic on the ruler of Nawanagar – Maharaja Jam Sahib Digvijaysinhji Ranjitsinhji. \nIt tells the story of a royal who saved several Polish children from Nazis during World War II. \nBollywood actor Sanjay Dutt\, who recently wrapped up the shoot for his comeback film\, Bhoomi\, is already working on his next. Late Wednesday\, director Omung Kumar shared the first look of his next film starring Sanjay in the lead role. \nTitled The Good Maharaja\, the film is a biopic on the ruler of Nawanagar – Maharaja Jam Sahib Digvijaysinhji Ranjitsinhji.
