Uttar Pradesh Caste-Based Discrimination Prohibition Act, 2025 (Proposed): The Constitution of India, under Articles 14, 15, and 17, guarantees equality, non-discrimination, and the abolition of untouchability. To eliminate caste-based division, discrimination, and injustice in Uttar Pradesh, this Act is proposed. Under this Act, mention of caste in government documents, police reports, FIRs, charge sheets, applications, or any official records is prohibited, except where required under the Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act or other applicable laws. Display of caste symbols, signs, slogans, posters, or messages is prohibited in public places, vehicles, schools, hospitals, religious sites, rallies, and on digital platforms. Organizing rallies, processions, meetings, election campaigns, or public programs based on caste is strictly forbidden. Media and digital platforms are subject to strict monitoring, and promotion of caste-based glorification, discrimination, or hate content will attract penalties. Violations may result in imprisonment of up to two years, a fine of up to ₹50,000, or both, and repeated offenses may attract imprisonment of up to five years and a fine of up to ₹1,00,000. Any individual or organization can file complaints with the District Magistrate, Superintendent of Police, or designated complaint officer, who will ensure impartial investigation and provide updates to the complainant. A State-Level Caste Discrimination Monitoring Authority and District-Level Monitoring Committees will be established to oversee enforcement, public awareness, and reporting. Officials carrying out duties under this Act in good faith will receive legal protection. The State Government is empowered to implement, make rules, and amend this Act as necessary. The provisions of this Act will not conflict with pre-existing legal rights or obligations and will take effect from the date of notification, ensuring elimination of caste-based discrimination and promoting equality and social harmony across Uttar Pradesh.

भारतीय दर्शन (भाग – 1) भारतीय संस्कृति के इतिहास में दर्शन का स्थान अत्यंत महत्त्वपूर्ण रहा है। भारत को यदि अध्यात्म और दर्शन की भूमि कहा जाए तो यह बिल्कुल अतिशयोक्ति नहीं होगी। यहाँ पर दर्शन केवल बौद्धिक चिंतन मात्र नहीं रहा, बल्कि जीवन जीने का मार्ग भी बना। पश्चिम में दर्शन को प्रायः ज्ञान की जिज्ञासा या तर्क की कसौटी पर परखा जाता है, जबकि भारतीय दर्शन का मूल उद्देश्य मानव जीवन के परम लक्ष्य मोक्ष की प्राप्ति है। यही कारण है कि भारतीय दर्शन व्यावहारिक जीवन से सीधा जुड़ा हुआ है और इसकी शिक्षाएँ केवल तर्क या बहस के लिए नहीं, बल्कि आत्मिक उन्नति और मुक्ति के लिए हैं। भारतीय दर्शन की सबसे बड़ी विशेषता यह है कि इसमें किसी एक ही दृष्टिकोण को अंतिम सत्य नहीं माना गया है। यहाँ विविध मार्गों का वर्णन मिलता है, परंतु सबका लक्ष्य एक ही है – आत्मा और परमात्मा का साक्षात्कार। यही कारण है कि भारतीय दर्शन को अक्सर "सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः" की भावना से जोड़ा जाता है। --- भारतीय दर्शन की सामान्य विशेषताएँ भारतीय दर्शन का सबसे बड़ा लक्षण इसकी आध्यात्मिकता है। जहाँ पाश्चात्य दर्शन ज्ञान को साधन म...
