President’s Message

lans’k Shri Anurag Thakur, has taken over as the Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports, Government of India on behalf of the members of the Bharat Scouts and Guides, I extend him a warm welcome. The ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports being Nodal ministry for Scouting and Guiding has always been a source of inspiration and support for the Bharat Scouts ad Guides. I also take this opportunity to thank Shri Kiran Rijiju, the outgoing Minister of MOYAS for his patronage to this movement. Government of India has planned for vaccination of all eligible youth and elders above the age of 18 years in phased manner. We learn that due to ignorance and not having awareness of the benefits of vaccination many people from the semi urban and rural areas are not taking advantage of the vaccination drive against covid-19, our scouts and guides from different district are actively involved in vaccination drive, however, we need to create more awareness on the vaccine, its benefit so that our country could face future challenges and prevent spread of the Covid. I am given to understand that the National Headquarters is taking up the issue of aligning the scout/guide Programme to suit to the New Education Policy and the committees are working on a plan to introduce the Programme of scouting/guiding from the early ages of preprimary age and cover youth up to college level in the new school education/ curriculum offered by the government of India.

The change over from one system to another system definitely have challenges, but change is the need of the hour, therefore, our movement should adopt best practices of education and make our programmes acceptable to the country as whole. We need to insist on the character training with due care and without losing the essence of service nature of our movement. Empowering the youth to become self-reliant citizens is the need of the hour, our association should become one such to address the needs of the hour.

Amongst the treasured items that Neil Armstrong carried with him to the moon and back was a World Scout Badge. The citation, printed on NASA letterhead paper and personally signed, reads, “ I certify that this World Scout Badge was carried to the moon on man’s first lunar landing, Apollo XI, July 20, 1969.”

viuh ckr June 2021 was to some extent a peaceful month with a few Covid cases across the country as compared to earlier months which were a nightmare. It is good to hear that in most of the big cities of our country, level of air pollution has considerably fallen due to lockdowns and curfews. It is an indirect lesson from nature that pollution damages the environment and will eventually have effect on the population.

That is why, we have called off the forthcoming event on World Nature Conservation on 28th July. It is observed across the world to raise awareness about protecting the natural resources. Deforestation and threat to wildlife are major concerns faced in current time. Scouts and Guides, Rovers and Rangers should prepare an action plan to protect the nature. It is a sustained project for the scouts and guides and we have been undertaking many activities like `Tide Turners Plastic Challenge` and many activities under ”Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan" to conserve nature. Let our youth plan some environment-friendly activities in their daily life to lead eco-friendly life. The activities may include rearing of birds in houses, maintaining organic roof gardens for vegetables and flowers. They can create awareness in the public to keep natural vegetation protected.

We will soon commemorate the 75th anniversary of our country's independence. To celebrate the event in a significant way, our Prime Minister has launched `Azaadi ka Amrit Mahotsav` in March this year. He urged all citizens to celebrate the spirit of freedom struggle and it should reflect the spirit of sacrifice. We have to make a resolution to build an India of the dreams of our great leaders. This is possible if our youth create awareness about gender equality and render selfless service to the nation. For a healthy and happy India, we should be determined to work towards the purpose of our movement.

lEiknd dh dye ls This is the time for all of us to protect against the forewarned third wave. The experiences we witnessed during the critical periods of Covid 19 should be taken as stepping stones to overcome the third wave. Three things are repeatedly told by our Prime Minister as very important. They are: Wear your masks properly; Wash your hands properly; and Maintain Social distancing. As the lock down has been relaxed, people are freely moving particularly in tourism spots, with children without observing the above-mentioned protocols.

People think that by wearing gloves, they may be safer. But WHO advises that it is safer to frequently clean the hands with alcohol-based sanitizers and rub the hands well till they are dry. Once you have sanitized your hands, you have disinfected them from any germs. Frequent cleaning of hands with soap and water will yield similar result. Secondly, while coughing and sneezing, cover the mouth and nose with tissue and throw the tissue immediately in the litter box and wash your hands. Thirdly, don`t wear masks while doing B.P. six or other morning exercise. Sweat can make the mask wet more quickly which makes it difficult to breathe and promotes the growth tc vki ckgj ls vkrs gSa rks vius twrsa vius ?kj ds ços”k }kj of micro-organisms.

TRAINER’S CORNER ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF SCOUTING : SCOUT METHOD ---- 5. ADULT SUPPORT Scout Method is an interdependent group of seven elements with focus on Law and Promise. The purpose of Scout Movement is to contribute to the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual potentials as individuals, as responsible citizens. In scouting our concern is about the young people and we expect them to grow as individuals. Young people get trained in this direction adhering to scouting Law and Promise. They need the support of the adults for different purposes. Young people need to know about scouting and its programme i.e. self-education which will help in their development. They need to share life-experiences with others. In the process of acquainting with the scouting, they have to trust experienced persons for suggestions and information. Once the programme of activities is in progress, they need to know whether their approach is right or not. To meet the above needs, young people need the support of adults. In Scouting, adults are: v young leaders delivering the youth programme v Volunteers v Professional staff. Adult`s role is to support the young people in partnership with them. Partnership involves sharing of thoughts and empowering the young people to go ahead with the Scouting. To make it clear, as an adult in a scout troop, the unit leader or the scout master should allow the young people to be independent to use their own thoughts in planning their programme, consulting among themselves. The adult is an observer and an adviser. The very idea of Scouting is to empower young people to make decisions wherever possible and to contribute to the leadership process. Court of Honour stands as an example with Scoutmaster in the background. It does not matter if the young make mistakes. Adults are there to support, guide, mentor and facilitate life- experiences. In essence, adults reinforce the youth-led, adult-supported nature of the programme. Hence Adult`s support is required to the youth to create learning opportunities so that they turn them into meaningful experiences. For example, young people like to spend out-doors for an activity. Adult extends support in planning for a camp, giving them the various aspects of camping. Adult`s support can be extended to the youth in four ways:

THE BHARAT SCOUTS AND GUIDES

JULY, 2021

Creating - Better India

v Educational Support: v

Adults provide support in the self-educational development of the young people. Self – Education includes1. Self- reliance i.e. making their own decisions. 2. Self- governing i.e. giving them responsibility to carry out their activities. Working in Patrols, Patrolin-council and Court-of-Honour provide situations for self-governing. 3. Self-learning i.e. desire to learn by himself. B.P. mentions `The method of instruction in Scouting is that of creating in the boy the desire to learn for himself`. Emotional Support: This type of support is associated with sharing life-experiences. Adult should set an example by living up to the Law and Promise. Young people are impressed by the leader because of his age, knowledge and experience. If the leader is dynamic, so will be the young. It involves the provision of empathy, devotion, trust and caring towards the young. Informational support: It involves the provision of advice, suggestions and information that young people need. For example, young people may need details of P.M. Shield Competition or UpaRashtrapathi award competition. Adult shares the required information. Appraisal Support: It involves the self-evaluation or feed back whether the young people are taking activities following the organizational values and it will be help the youth to get corrected.

In this context, it is to be mentioned that The Bharat Scouts and Guides in its amended rules, laid stress on Adult Support and gave provision for Training Counsellors, HWB holders, Badge Instructors and Badge Examiners to be the office bearers of the District Association and Local Association to support Youth Program. There will be one training counselor for 15 to 20 units. The Training Counsellors, who are preferably HWBs in the appropriate section, will give personal support, self-training, informal training to the unit leaders of the area. They advise, aid and help in the activities of the Units in the area. They will help the unit leaders for their personal development. Similarly Badge Instructors and Badge Examiners can be anyone with expertise in the subject, in accordance with the provisions of APRO. Furthermore, the BSG has been inviting many celebrities to be our members. These types of provisions will not only strengthen the quality but also increase wellwishers of the movement and motivate more youth to join BSG. As the Founder stated, `To get a hold on boys, you must be their friend`. Adults have to come out of the thinking that they are class room teachers and scouting is an informal education where adults work with them by guiding them where needed and allow them to be independent in creating their own thoughts, as their thoughts will seek the future. Before concluding, it is worth to hear what Kahlil Gibran, the Lebanese author and the poet said in `The Prophet`: `You may give them your love, but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts, You may house their bodies, but not their souls Because their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, Seek not to make them like you, for life goes not backward Nor tarries with yesterday.`

MEMBERSHIP GROWTH An organization without members is like a body without a soul. The registered and active members are the key persons who run the organization smoothly and effectively with its mission and vision. Along with that, all the organizations want to sustain and grow further with their membership in this competitive world. Forth at, an organization must develop its membership recruitment and retention plan and policy to implement and follow it continuously. The organizational activities and programmes must be done based on these two things. In the changing environment, membership of organizations needs to undergo digital transformation and create new ways to engage and interact with the next generation. In short, they need to stay relevant to succeed in today’s climate. The youth play a vital role in society as well as in an organization. They are like the backbone of the country and its future. Participation of youth in an organization has many advantages for the youth themselves and the entire community. Of course, the most obvious advantage of membership is that youth organizations provide young people a forum to effectively deal with an issue related to youth. Like other volunteer and youth organizations, the Bharat Scouts and Guides in India also give sits incredible and spontaneous contribution towards the youth of the nation. Scouting in India aims to create better citizens, a better community, and a better India through providing youth a value-based and challenging youth program, through competent leaders, effective communication, optimum use of technology, and efficient management. The Bharat Scouts and Guides in India focuses on the 360-degree development of youth in terms of spiritual, moral, social, cultural, mental, and physical, by engaging them in various programs like- social services, awareness, fitness, training, adventure, spiritual, career counselling, skill development, etc. It works to engage the youth and their talent for individual and organizational growth through qualitative youth membership, their development, and retention which will have greater impact worldwide. BSG-India is involved in many aspects of youth and offers opportunities for leadership development and guidance for both education and career. Being part of this organization, youth can gain leadership skills, interpersonal skills, the ability to think critically and solve problems, the assumption of personal and group responsibility and a close-knit peer group and it sends a positive message to youth throughout the community. Involvement with this organization will allow the participant to add the network with other scouting people in India and across the globe with their scouting practice, voluntary activities for the society and also individual overall development.

Governments have a responsibility to counteract both drug trafficking and drug abuse, but communities can also make a major contribution. To succeed against Drug abuse and illicit trafficking, we can reinforce our commitment to the basic principles of health and human rights, shared responsibility, a balanced approach to reducing supply and demand, and universal access to prevention, treatment, and support.
