Telescope from which even universe can't hide

A telescope that can see beyond your imagination 

Before this you should know that what is Dark Energy. Now, Dark Energy was the name of the force that is accelerating the expansion of the Universe. Dark energy makes up 68% of the universe and Dark Matter makes up 27% and the remaining matter covers everything on Earth. Everything seen through the constituencies of different devices, just 5% of the Universe.

The scientists of Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) a US astronomical observatory have created a five year programme to map the universe in its most detailed survey, the goal of decoding Dark Energy with 5,000 mini telescopes.

Each of these mini telescopes will be able to detect a galaxy every 20 minutes, meaning that in a year this super telescope will have surveyed more galaxies in the universe than all other telescopes. This telescope can see objects 10 bn light years away, which means that it can tell us about cosmic events that occurred 10 bn years ago.

How does this telescope work ?
Researchers around the world participating in this study have attached an optical instrument to measure the spectrum of light from any source, called a Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) to the 4km Mayall telescope. DESI will measure the effect of Dark Energy on the expansion of the universe. DESI will measure the impact of dark energy on the expansion of the universe.
There are 5,000 optical fibers inside the DESI, each of which will act as an independent telescope and together, they will be able to scan 3,60,000 galaxies in a day.

2 October - Gandhi Jayanti

2 October - Gandhi Jayanti

Gandhi Jayanti, it is a national festival celebrated in India to mark the birth anniversary of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, born on 2 October 1869 so it is celebrated annually on 2 October, and it is one of the three national holidays of India. He was also known as Bapu.

Gandhi was an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist,and political ethicist, who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British Rule. After he return to India in 1915, he set about  organizing peasants, farmers, and urban labourers to protest against excessive land-tax and discrimination. Assuming leadership of the Indian National Congress in 1921, Gandhi led nationwide campaigns for various social causes and for achieving Swaraj or self-rule.

Gandhi led the Indians in challenging the British-imposed salt tax with the 400 km Dandi Salt March in 1930, and later called on the British to leave India in 1942. The 24-day march lasted from 12 March 1930 to 6 April 1930. He was imprisoned many years in both South Africa and In India. 
He ate simple vegetarian food, and undertook long fasts. He wore traditional dhoti and shawl, woven with yarn hand-spun on a charkha. He never used violence in his whole life, he along with all other freedom fighters devoted themselves to making India independent, that is why he was given the title of Father of the Nation and Mahatma Gandhi in India. He was assassinated on 30 January 1958 by Nathuram Godse, just 6 months after India's independence.

HAPPY GANDHI JAYANTI

Recruitment Scams/Nexus in Private Firms

Hiring scam in Private Firms

Most of us have heard and somewhere faced some level of recruitment corruption in government sector jobs.  We all are aware of Haryana Teachers Recruitment scam and Vyapam recruitment scandal.  That is why many of us had to move to private sector for Jobs where it is thought that organizations would give weightage to Skills and Competency of Candidates and would do right kind of hiring.  Ultimately, these resources are going to contribute to organization’s success.  While this is true but not anymore.

The corruption has traveled to private sector as well.  Genuine and competent candidate is now facing challenges again.  First need to understand how this has happened and how it works.  Job scarcity is in market and hitting everyone.  People see opportunities in metro cities only which have been hubs for private sector jobs.  These companies pay good salaries as well.  Companies started recruiting candidates from 2nd tier and 3rd tier cities to avoid high pay scales.  Sometimes, candidate do not find themselves competent enough to clear interviews.  Similar equation worked in private sectors as well which led to corruption in govt sector.  More candidates and less jobs.  Who else would be more aware and able to take advantage of this situation other than recruitment departments.  So slowly, slowly they developed a nexus.  For this, various levels of people got involved and formed a well knitted team.  People from recruitment department, operation managers, few employees, and job providing agencies came together.  Job providing consulting agencies play a very important role.  Candidates are referred by consulting firms.  Recruitment team would make sure that candidates referred by few job agencies and employees are selected.  Candidate would need to shed away approx. 8% to 12% of his package to consultant firm which would distribute this amount to everyone involved in this process.

Currently, this kind of scam is prevalent in most of high profile BPOs.  I would not say that higher management has closed eyes on this.  This scam is running so smoothly that at times leadership does not have enough evidence against this scam.  Wherever they have found evidences, they have taken action, but still that has not been enough.  Right and competent candidates are still looking for right opportunity.  They are facing challenges from reservation, corruption in govt sector and now in private sector.  I would request through this article to all leadership of private sectors to be more vigilant of recruitment process.  Ultimately, only skillful resource would be able to help organization achieve their goals.
