51 Years of India-Bangladesh Bilateral Relations: Opportunities and Challenges

Because of their distinct histories, India and Bangladesh have unique neighbourly relations. India and Bangladesh have completed 51 years of bilateral ties in 2022, beginning in December 1971 with India's recognition of the newly independent People's Republic of Bangladesh. India played a significant role in the formation of Bangladesh during a liberation conflict with Pakistan. There are many things that tie the two nations together, such as a shared history and legacy, linguistic and social ties, and a love of art that reflects the diversity of human expression in music, literature, and other forms. Bangladesh is a geopolitically and strategically important country in India's neighbourhood policy. Bangladesh is especially important to India because of its connectivity with the country's seven landlocked northern sister states. Bangladesh's foreign policy discourse is dominated by the words "Indian factor" and "blocked by India." As a result, India is a top priority for Bangladeshi policymakers. The India-Bangladesh partnership affects millions of people in both countries, as well as in South Asia and beyond. The two nations are presently setting an example in South Asian politics in terms of security cooperation, connectivity, collaboration in the energy and power sectors, social and cultural integration, and bilateral trade. During the COVID-19 period, cooperation between the two nations was crucial. India made a humanitarian gesture at the time by assisting Bangladesh in developing its own vaccine. For more than 51 years, India and Bangladesh have had a more or less friendly relationship. There have been a few tense moments in the relationship's half-century history, most notably during the military regime and the BNP's rule. The golden jubilee year of the bilateral relationship was completed in 2021. The current research aims to provide a beneficial road map for the future by evaluating the history of the bilateral relationship and commenting on the problems and barriers experienced.

Log Type Calibration Estimator of Population Mean in Stratified Sampling

In this paper, a log type calibration estimator for estimating the population mean in stratified random sampling has been proposed utilizing the available auxiliary information. This estimator has also been extended in case of double stratified sampling when mean of the auxiliary information is not known. The simulation study has been carried out using R software on real as well as artificial datasets. The empirical as well as bootstrap estimates of the percentage relative root mean squared error (%RRMSE) have been computed for real as well as artificial datasets. These suggested calibration estimators have been compared with the estimators given by Singh (Golden jubilee year 2003 of the linear regression estimator, 2003a) and Tracy et al. (Surv Methodol 29(1): 99–104, 2003).

A survey of Hough Transform

In 1962 Hough earned the patent for a method [1], popularly called Hough Transform (HT) that efficiently identifies lines in images. It is an important tool even after the golden jubilee year of existence, as evidenced by more than 2500 research papers dealing with its variants, generalizations, properties and applications in diverse fields. The current paper is a survey of HT and its variants, their limitations and the modifications made to overcome them, the implementation issues in software and hardware, and applications in various fields. Our survey, along with more than 200 references, will help the researchers and students to get a comprehensive view on HT and guide them in applying it properly to their problems of interest.

I write this president’s page with great pride, honour and humility towards all fellow IAPians for giving me opportunity to serve this prestigious association in the golden jubilee year of Indian Academy of Pediatrics. It has been a great honour and privilege indeed and I profusely thank each and every one of you, not only for electing me president of IAP but supporting the efforts, which I initiated during my tenure, i.e. Mission Uday and Mission Kishore Uday, IAP TOUCH, BLS Awareness Program, Child India (our new e-bulletin), Advisory Committee on Vaccination and Immunization Practices (ACVIP), and Indian College of Pediatrics.

Indian college of pediatrics: A novel initiative of IAP in its Golden Jubilee year

Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) has made significant progress in the last 50 years, not only in terms of membership strength, but also our academic stature has grown. Our organs (branches, chapters, journals) also have progressed a lot. The Golden Jubilee Volume January issue of Indian Pediatrics is a testimony to these achievements. The definition of child has now embraced adolescents up to 18 years of age – this also has widened the scope of Pediatrics enormously. Now, we have many sub-specialities under the umbrella of “Child Care”. In our Golden Jubilee year, our prime aim will be to re-organize and re-strengthen our academic wing, so that we may maintain and enhance our value in society and also generate confidence among our members.

Bridging the digital divide through public, school and college libraries: Case study of Bangladesh

The least developed and developing countries are combating against digital divide in order to keep the wheel of development rolling and escape from the vicious circle of poverty as digital divide is one of the key factors that can lead the poverty situation of these nations to an extreme level. In Bangladesh, the digital divide condition is severe. Therefore it is imperative for Bangladesh to take fruitful steps to bridge the digital divide and to ensure ICT facilities at the national level. Recently as government pledged to convert Bangladesh into Digital Bangladesh by 2021 which is the golden jubilee year of Bangladesh independence, several initiatives have been taken to overcome the digital divide and to produce future qualified generations. However, it has been observed that no worth mentioning project has been taken by any government that ensures proper development of public, school and college libraries. Government should realize the fact that complete development of the country is never possible unless we concentrate library based education. It is not possible for any government to ensure computer with internet connection to each and every family in Bangladesh, however, it is possible to ensure ICTs at school, college and public libraries. The author of this paper firmly believe that ensuring ICTs to public, school and college libraries will greatly reduce digital divide at the national level and will produce qualified, efficient, ICT competent future generations. In this paper an attempt has been made by the authors to show the existing digital divide in the country, current ICT scenario and core projects that have taken by government, non-government, donor agencies and other development organization. The main object of this paper is to show how public, school and college libraries can reduce digital divide at the national level. It is believed that coordinated, long-term, effective projects/programme to reduce digital divide will ensure peaceful, educated, qualified, ICT competent future generations.

Golden jubilee of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: is alcohol septal ablation the gold standard?

In the golden jubilee year of the first recognition of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, we are discussing the intricacies and impact of alcohol septal ablation (ASA) in the treatment of this clinical entity. Since its first revelation 14 years ago, ASA has become a well-established treatment modality for symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy patients. With better recognition of the implication of first septal branch and right dose of alcohol to be used for ablation, the incidence of complications like complete heart block are coming down along with better procedural success rates. In appropriately selected patients and in expert hands ASA has produced excellent results. Surgical myectomy, even though it has produced excellent results, is available only at a few centers and patient preference is tilted more for a less invasive procedure like ASA. This has contributed towards far more ASAs being performed worldwide than surgical myectomies. While more than 5000 ASAs have been performed in the last 14 years, the number of patients who have had myectomy remains around 3000-4000. The pendulum of gold standard may have started swinging away from surgical myectomy towards ASA.
