GD topic : Increasing connectivity in social empowerment
There were 9 guys in total for the GD 2 were absent
Overall the discussion was healthy no fish market sort of
Initially 2 minutes for my turn -- since 3-4 guys already had explained what is social empowerment discussed education and gud gdp growth has made people ask questions, politicians are slowly becoming accountable
so went from rural india perspective women still not have their say increasing female foeticide , crime against women ,
Role of NGO's named few social workers medha partker and testa stelvad they have become the voice of people who are not socially empowered
blah blah about NREGA
Group Discussed -
From rural perspective
Urban perspective
blogging, media , tv , radio , movies RDB MBBS,
discussed a lot on NREGA and RTI
i chipped in sometimes with PIL , need to education the rural people specially about agri since lot of india is dependent on agriculture , role to be played by agri universities
group said a
lot about infrastructure ..... roads link whole india villages etc
role of radio in rural india , media etc
from global perspective some abt china, pakistan probs in iran etc australians abrogines etc
