  23 Define Global warming? What are the other effects of global warming? (10 Marks)

Ans:-Here's a simple definition of global warming. (And yes, it's really happening.) Over the past 50 years, the average global temperature has increased at the fastest rate in recorded history. And experts see the trend is accelerating: All but one of the 16 hottest years in NASA’s 134-year record have occurred since 2000.

Climate change deniers have argued that there has been a “pause” or a “slowdown” in rising global temperatures, but several recent studies, including a 2015 paper published in the journal Science, have disproved this claim. And scientists say that unless we curb global-warming emissions, average U.S. temperatures could increase by up to 10 degrees Fahrenheit over the next century.

What are the other effects of global warming?

 Each year, scientists learn more about the consequences of global warming, and many agree that environmental, economic, and health consequences are likely to occur if current trends continue. Here’s just a smattering of what we can look forward to:

  • Melting glaciers, early snowmelt, and severe droughts will cause more dramatic water shortages and increase the risk of wildfires in the American West.

  • Rising sea levels will lead to coastal flooding on the Eastern Seaboard, especially in Florida, and in other areas such as the Gulf of Mexico.

  • Forests, farms, and cities will face troublesome new pests, heat waves, heavy downpours, and increased flooding. All those factors will damage or destroy agriculture and fisheries.

  • Disruption of habitats such as coral reefs and Alpine meadows could drive any plant and animal species to extinction.

Studies show that women with access to reproductive health services find it easier to break out of poverty, while those who work are more likely to use birth control. The United Nations Population Fund aims to tackle both issues at once, running microcredit projects to turn young women into advocates for reproductive health.

2. Promote family planning

Simply educating men and women about contraception can have a big impact. When Iran introduced a national family planning programme in 1989, its fertility rate fell from 5.6 births per woman to 2.6 in a decade. A similar effort in Rwanda saw a threefold increase in contraception usage in just five years.

3. Make education entertaining

The US-based Population Media Center gets creative to reach women. Its radio soap operas, which feature culturally specific stories about reproductive issues, have been heard by as many as 500 million people in 50 countries. In Ethiopia, 63 per cent of women seeking reproductive health services reported tuning in.

4. Government incentives

Those at UK charity Population Matters believe there should be a senior government official responsible for addressing population-related issues. They urge governments to promote “responsible parenthood” and say subsidies should be limited to the first two children unless the family is living in poverty.

5) One-child legislation

During China’s high controversial one-child policy, fertility fell from six births per woman in the 1960s to 1.5 in 2014. However, Amnesty International reports that the policy led to coerced or forced abortions and sterilisations. It also disrupted traditional support structures for the elderly and led to a gender imbalance.

FIELD CRAFT AND BATTLE CRAFT   (20 Marks)



1 Explain the methods of judging the distance?           (10 Marks)

Ans:- There are five methods

(a)Unit of Measure. This method is also termed as the 100 yards method. The unit of measure chosen is normally 100 yards and therefore one should form a good idea of 100 yards distance on the ground. The length of a hockey field is the best yard stick for this purpose. The distance of a given object will be a multiple of the imaginary unit of 100 yards, as placed between the observer and the object. 

This method is not accurate above 100 yards and is of little use if there is dead ground between the observer and the object.

(b)Appearance Method . The distance can be judged by noting the detailed appearance of man at various ranges. This is the best method under service conditions. The following is a guide to distance:-

 (a) At 200 yards, all parts of the body are distinct. 

(b) At 250 yards, blade of the foresight covers a kneeling man. 

(c) At 300 yards the face becomes blurred. 102 

(d) At 400 yards the body remains same in shape but face is difficult to distinguish. Blade of the foresight covers a standing man. 

(e) At 500 yards body appears to taper slightly from the shoulder but movement of limbs can still be seen.

 (f) At 600 yards head appears as a dot. Details are not visible and body tapers from shoulders downwards noticeably

(c)Section Average. Each man in the section is asked to judge the distance of a given object. The average of the answers given by the whole section is then accepted as the distance. Here caution must be exercised in the estimation of a few who may foolishly over estimate the distance. This method may be resorted to under the following circumstances:-

(a) Ample time is available. 

(b) Judging of distance is made difficult by mist or darkness.

 (c) Judging of a long distance is involved e.g. beyond 400 yards..

(d)Key Range . If the range of the certain object is known, distance to other objects can be found in relation to the known range. This method is called „Key Range‟ method. 

(e)Halving. An object is selected half way between the observe and the target, the distance to the selected object is judged and doubled to get the distance to the target.

(f)Bracketing. The observer works out the maximum and the minimum possible distance of the object and then accept the mean as the distance e.g. maximum possible distance 1000 yards, minimum possible distance 500 yards therefore estimated range is 750 yards. The greater the range wider the bracket. In no case the bracket should be less than 300 yards


2 When distance is over-estimated?           (05 Marks)

Ans:-(a) Distance are over-estimated when:- 

(i) Light is bad. 

(ii) The sun is in the observer‟s eye.

(iii) The object is small in relation to its surroundings.

(iv) Looking through a valley of narrow lane e.g. street. 

(v) Lying down.


3 When distance is under-estimated?           (05 Marks)

Ans:-Distance are under- estimated when:- 

(i)The light is bright or the sun is shining from behind the observer. 

(ii) The object is large in relation to its surrounding. 

(iii) There is some dead ground between observer and the object.

(iv) Looking up hill.

1. What is the importance of Communication in Wars?                                       (05Marks)

ANS:-The information age is experiencing dramatic upsurge in technology. Any kind of information can be conveyed within second to the concerned irrespective of distances, terrains and barriers. In modern warfare the operations of the defense forces have became so complex and its mobility so enhanced that commanders and staff officers have to depend primarily upon signal communications for exercising command and control over its forces. Efficient signal communications thus gain vital importance.

2 Wrtie The Note :- Indo – Pak War 1971.( 75 WORDS)   (10 Marks)

Ans:-


The Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 was a military confrontation between India's Mitrobahini forces and Pakistan that occurred during the liberation war in East Pakistan from 3 December 1971 to the fall of Dacca (Dhaka) on 16 December 1971. The war began with Operation Chengiz Khan's preemptive aerial strikes on 11 Indian air stations, which led to the commencement of hostilities with Pakistan and Indian entry into the war for independence in East Pakistan on the side of Bengali nationalist forces. Lasting just 13 days, it is one of the shortest wars in history.

During the war, Indian and Pakistani militaries simultaneously clashed on the eastern and western fronts; the war ended after the Eastern Command of the Pakistan military signed the Instrument of Surrender. on 16 December 1971 in Dhaka, marking the formation of East Pakistan as the new nation of Bangladesh. Officially, East Pakistan had earlier called for its secession from Pakistan on 26 March 1971. Approximately 90,000[36] to 93,000 Pakistani servicemen were taken prisoner by the Indian Army, which included 79,676 to 81,000 uniformed personnel of the Pakistan Armed Forces, including some Bengali soldiers who had remained loyal to Pakistan.[36][37][38] The remaining 10,324 to 12,500 prisoners were civilians, either family members of the military personnel or collaborators (razakars). 

It is estimated that members of the Pakistani military and supporting Islamist militias killed between 300,000 and 3,000,000 civilians in Bangladesh. As a result of the conflict, a further eight to ten million people fled the country to seek refuge in India.[47]

During the 1971 Bangladesh war for independence, members of the Pakistani military and supporting Islamist militias called the Razakars raped between 200,000 and 400,000 Bangladeshi women and girls in a systematic campaign of genocidal rape.


3 Wrtie The Note :- Indo – Kargil War 1999.( 75 WORDS)   (10 Marks)

Ans :-Date

3 May – 26 July 1999
(2 months, 3 weeks and 2 days)

Location

Kargil districtJammu and Kashmir (now Ladakh), India


The Kargil War, also known as the Kargil conflict,[note (I)] was an armed conflict between India and Pakistan that took place between May and July 1999 in the Kargil district of Kashmir and elsewhere along the Line of Control (LOC). In India, the conflict is also referred to as Operation Vijay (Hindiविजय, literally "Victory"), which was the name of the Indian operation to clear the Kargil sector.[22] The Indian Air Force's role in acting jointly with Indian Army ground troops during the war was aimed at flushing out regular and irregular troops of the Pakistani Army from vacated Indian Positions in the Kargil sector along the Line of Control. This particular operation was given the code name Operation Safed Sagar (Hindiऑपरेशनसफेदसागर, lit. "Operation White Sea").

The cause of the war was the infiltration of Pakistani soldiers disguised as Kashmiri militants into positions on the Indian side of the LOC, which serves as the de facto border between the two states. During the initial stages of the war, Pakistan blamed the fighting entirely on independent Kashmiri insurgents, but documents left behind by casualties and later statements by Pakistan's Prime Minister and Chief of Army Staff showed involvement of Pakistani paramilitary forces,[25][26][27] led by General Ashraf Rashid.[ The ]  Indian Army, later supported by the Indian Air Force, recaptured a majority of the positions on the Indian side of the LOC infiltrated by the Pakistani troops and militants. Facing international diplomatic opposition, the Pakistani forces withdrew from the remaining Indian positions along the LOC.

The war is the most recent example of high-altitude warfare in mountainous terrain, and as such posed significant logistical problems for the combating sides. It is also the sole instance of direct, conventional warfare between nuclear states (i.e., those possessing nuclear weapons). India had conducted its first successful test in 1974; Pakistan, which had been developing its nuclear capability in secret since around the same time, conducted its first known tests in 1998, just two weeks after a second series of tests by India.
