Hon’ble Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modiji reviewed the contribution of the Bharat Scouts and Guides in achieving the National Goals on Youth Development through a presentation and meeting of Chief Executives of the Association. I had the privilege of attending the meeting on 18th April 2016, at 6:30 p.m. in the office of Hon’ble Prime Minister. The Secretary of Youth Affairs, Government of India made a vivid presentation which explained how Bharat Scouts and Guides contributes to youth development of India. I am given to understand that Bharat Scouts and Guides never had the privilege of attending such a policy review meeting by Hon’ble Prime Minister of India. I explained to the Hon’ble Prime Minister how best the Scout/Guide Movement contributes in Nation building. We look forward for a continued support from Government of India.

The facilities arranged by the Scout Association were worth appreciating. The International commissioner of Indonesia and RSC member Mr. Ahmed Rusdi and his team worked day and night in and out to make the event purposeful. Dr. K.K. khandelwal, State Chief Commissioner of Haryana also attended the meeting of Finance Resources SubCommittee as the nominated member and registered his effective participation. I earnestly request all members of committees at International, National, State and District level to commit themselves to attend meetings so that their knowledge and experiences can be utilised for the growth of Scouting and Guiding.

Kolkata flyover collapse: Whole society appreciated the rescue operation support of Scouts & Guides At least 26 people were killed and more than 70 injured as two parts of an under-construction 2.2-km-long Vivekananda Flyover collapsed in a congested market area near Ganesh Talkies, North Kolkata, on 31st March 2016 (Thursday) afternoon. A 100-metre (330-ft) section came crashing down suddenly on a crowded street around lunchtime, crushing pedestrians, cars and other vehicles under huge concrete slabs and metal. Around 40 Rovers and the Top District officials of West Calcutta District Association of Bharat Scouts & Guides were engaged in rescue work at the flyover collapse site two days i.e. on 31st March and 1st April. In this rescue operation rovers of south Calcutta district also accompanied with west Calcutta. The accident site is a little over a kilometer away from the district headquarters in West Kolkata. Within one hour of the incident, the Rovers provided their enormous help with the rescue operations. They helped to clear the debris and carry the dead. They also helped in ensuring the area does not get crowded and kept out the public so that rescue work wasn’t hampered. They also supplied water and food to the rescue team. At around 02:00 pm Thursday, the Rovers - noticable in their uniform fanned out into the neighborhood, working with the locals and later with the military and government deployed rescue team. Early morning, on the next day too, they gave continuous service alongside the army. Honourable Governor visited the site and appreciated the rescue operation support by scouts and rovers. The senior army and police officers highly appreciated the support by Bharat Scouts & Guides during the rescue operation. The district and state officials said that this was a truly humanitarian response from Bharat Scouts & Guides. We are concerned with duties and responsibilities in the crises period.

Uniform Smartness in uniform & correctness in details may seem a small matter, but has its value in development of self respect and means an immense deal to the reputation of the Movement among outsiders who judge by what they see. - B.P.

To Our Readers Suggestions are invited from Scouts/Guides, Rovers/Rangers, Unit Leaders, Trainers etc for new attractive Uniform of Scout and Guide wing. Please send your suggestions to Director, Bharat Scouts & Guides, National Headquarters, New Delhi through email id info@bsgindia.org or by post. Director

SANGAM EVENT GIFT FOR CHANGE My experience: AMRITPAL KAUR GUIDE CAPTAIN, BLUE OCEAN GUIDE COMPANY, PUNJAB

“THE MOST VALUABLE THING THAT I LEARNT IN SANGAM IS HOW TO RESPECT FREEDOM.” An event named GIFT FOR CHANGE, designed by WAGGGS was held at Sangam World Centre, Pune, Maharasthra from March 31, 2016 to April 04, 2016 to discover the change one wants to see in the world. The 42 participants, belonging to the different countries participated in this event. From India we were 09 girls named Ms. Anupriya (Bihar), MS. Sapna (Bihar), Ms. Akasha Priya (Bihar), Ms. Beant Kaur (Punjab), Ms. Sandeep Kaur (Punjab), Ms. Sarbjeet Kaur (Punjab), Ms. Swati (U.P.), Ms. Seema (U.P.) and me participated in this event. The programme included the activities like exploring the colours, customs and excitement of Indian life, discovering the city of Pune, learning about Sangam and WAGGGS and Experiencing International Girl Guiding and Girl Scouting. The first day we saluted the flags of the all nations and the World Guide flag. We were divided into patrols by the volunteers working in Sangam. Then we explored Sangam. We visited the home of an old volunteer of Sangam. She was about 65 years of age. She gave us a traditional welcome. In the evening, we had a warm welcome having a touch of Indian tradition. The next morning, a yoga class was organised. After Flag, we had our breakfast. During breakfast, I got surprised when I found a friendship badge in my handkerchief bag by Northern Ireland. For “Be a Change” programmae, we were introduced to 17 SDGs. The next day, we climbed the water-tomb. For the community work we were given three options named visit to SWACH, The Moral Painting and to spend a positive time with children on 2nd April and 3rd April 2016. At Sangam I left my mark by decorating the log book of Sangam. We had FREE BEING ME party. I gifted all Guests with colourful Bindis and shared with all what a bindi does reflect. On 3rd April, we explored Indian culture. All were in Indian traditional dresses. We had Marathi dinner. After dinner, all went for swimming. The people around me were very helpful to guide me how to swim. I was feeling blessed. They helped all Indian girls to swim. During the closing ceremony we received certificates and Sangam-badge from Sangam team. When we were leaving Sangam, the whole guest-service team was singing and blessing us a safe journey. It was too emotional. We are very thankful to Sangam Team. To conclude I can say: “Sangam helped me to experience No doubt, we differ in colour, But we have same culture That is HUMANISM” I am thankful to the officials of National Headquarters, State Headquarters, District Headquarters, my Department Head, my School authorities and my Parents who directly or indirectly helped, to provide me this Golden opportunity to participate in this memorable event.
