"These subjects cannot be adequately covered in just a month or a year; they require regular and ongoing attention to truly understand their core concepts and actual impacts. It's not enough to simply offer them as optional subjects or to include them for the sake of improving rankings or results. They must be recognized as essential components of a well-rounded education that can help students become informed and engaged citizens. Only then can we hope to see real change in our society and the world at large." — Parthapratim Dash (Author).

By Parthapratim Dash
পশ্চিমবঙ্গ - মোবাইল চুরি এবং ছিনতাই এখন একটি সাধারণ ঘটনা হয়ে দাঁড়িয়েছে। প্রতিদিনই কোথাও না কোথাও এই ধরনের অপরাধ ঘটছে, কিন্তু পুলিশের পক্ষ থেকে প্রতিরোধের কোনো কার্যকরী ব্যবস্থা নেওয়া হচ্ছে না। অপরাধীরা নির্ভয়ে তাদের কার্যক্রম চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে, কারণ তারা জানে যে তাদের আটকাতে পুলিশ প্রায়ই ব্যর্থ। কিছু ক্ষেত্রে পুলিশের সক্রিয়তা দেখা যায়, কিন্তু অধিকাংশ সময়ই তা শুধুমাত্র  পিআর এর জন্য।  "নিউজ এটাচমেন্ট সোর্স - আনন্দবাজার পক্রিকা" রাজ্যের বিভিন্ন স্থানে এই ধরনের র‍্যাকেটগুলো গড়ে উঠেছে, এবং এগুলো কার্যক্রম চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে নির্ভয়ে। সাধারণ মানুষ ভয়ে ভয়ে রয়েছে, আর অপরাধীরা তাদের কাজ চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে। দুর্নীতি, অযোগ্যতা, এবং নিষ্ক্রিয়তা মিলিয়ে পরিস্থিতি দিন দিন খারাপ হচ্ছে। পুলিশের কার্যক্রমের ওপর নির্ভরশীলতা কমে যাচ্ছে এবং বাস্তবতা উপলব্ধি করতে হলে সাধারণ মানুষকেই প্রথম পদক্ষেপ নিতে হবে। মোবাইল ফোন চুরি বা ছিনতাইয়ের ক্ষেত্রে, বেশিরভাগ সময় পুলিশ সাধারণ ডায়েরি (জিডি) এন্ট্রি করিয়ে দেয়, যাতে ঘটনাটিকে মিসিং বা হারিয়ে যাওয়া বলে উল্লেখ করা হয়। এতে পুলিশের এলাকার ক্রাইম রে...

One common use of RAY ID is for tracking web traffic

By Parthapratim Dash
RAY ID is a unique identification number that is assigned to each device connected to the Internet. It is used to identify and track devices online, and is often used for security purposes. One common use of RAY ID is for tracking web traffic. When a user visits a website, their device is assigned a RAY ID, which is then recorded in the website's server logs. This allows the website owner to track how many unique visitors they have and where they are coming from. RAY ID can also be used for security purposes. For example, it can be used to block access to a website or online service from certain devices, or to prevent unauthorized access to accounts. This is often done by comparing the RAY ID of a device to a list of known malicious RAY IDs. In addition to tracking and security, RAY ID can also be used for personalization. For example, a website might use a RAY ID to remember a user's preferences or to show them personalized content. Overall, RAY ID is a useful tool for trackin...

Censorship and freedom of speech on social media in India

By Parthapratim Dash
In recent years, social media platforms have become an important tool for individuals and groups to share information and express their opinions. However, in India, there have been instances where government authorities have ordered the deletion of YouTube channels, Facebook pages, and profiles that speak about government scams, ask questions of the government, or promote awareness of government fake propaganda.

This move was widely criticized by human rights groups and free speech advocates, who argued that it was a violation of the right to freedom of expression. Another example of government censorship on social media occurred in 2019, when a n...
