π Hydrothermal Carbonisation
β IIT-KGP develops Hydro Thermal Carbonization technology for Waste Management for solid waste management.
β Technology can convert high moisture municipal solid waste to biofuel, soil amendment and absorbents.
βͺοΈProcess :
β The technology is aimed at conversion of wet biomass into hydro-char (a coal like fuel) under suitable temperature and pressure conditions.
β Moisture in waste is used to the advantage of process which uses water for reaction.
β The biofuel generated as recovered output can help curb air pollution.
βͺοΈBenefits :
β Technology can be used by civic bodies to effectively manage solid waste.
β Once organic waste is entered into process, the outputs generated are all usable.
β The hydro-char, rich in carbon and high calorific content, can be utilized as fuel, as an alternative for coal
β Its by-products include ash which can be applied as a plant nutrient enhancer.

π Cardiac arrest
β It is a condition where the heart stops beating, and it must be revived immediately to prevent death of the
individual.
β There are various reasons as to why the heart stops beating; one of the common causes is heart attack.
β Other causes can be irregular heartbeat (electrical dysfunction) due to problems in the heart muscle or problems in the electrolyte balance in the body.
β Cardiac arrest leads to the inability of the heart to pump blood to vital organs of the body such as brain, the heart itself, kidneys, liver and gut,
leading to death of the individual within minutes if not treated immediately.
βͺοΈ Heart attack :
β Heart attack is a condition which results due to loss of blood supply to a part of the heart muscle which could be a small or large part of the heart.
β It usually happens due to blockage in one or more of the arteries supplying the blood to the heart (coronary arteries).
β Heart attack may or may not
lead to cardiac arrest.
β Patients with a heart attack present symptoms like chest pain, pain in the jaw or shoulder, breathing difficulty, palpitations and a sense of impending doom.
β In many instances, it can occur silently without any symptoms.

π Paika Rebellion
β The Paikas of Odisha were the landed militia (βfoot soldiersβ literally) who were involved in performing policing functions for the Gajapati rulers.
β The kingdom of Khurda had granted them rent-free land for the military services that they offered to the kingdom.
β Paika Rebellion of 1817 is an armed revolt against the British by the Paikas of Khurda in Odisha.
β The rebellion took form and shape under the leadership of Baxi Jagabandhu Bidyadhara.
β Soon after taking over Odisha from the Marathas in 1803, the British started to introduce a system of administration that angered the King of Khurda, Mukunda Deva II.
β Many other activities of the British like the introduction of a new currency system, oppression of the Paikas in the hands of the officials of the company, ban on making salt from seawater gave rise to widespread dissatisfaction and hatred against the British.
β The king planned revolt against British in collaboration with the Paikas.
β The revolt enjoyed a great level of support from the Kings of Nayagarh, Kujang, Kanika, Village headmen,
peasants and zamindars.
β Initially, the Paikas seemed to have gotten hold of the battle and saw some victory, but was suppressed by the British in just three months.
β Some Paikas however, fought guerilla warfare against the British yet the revolt was completely suppressed by 1819.
β Therefore, it lasted for a year and a half before being ruthlessly suppressed by the British East India Companyβs forces.
β The result of the Paika Rebellion was disheartening as the rebels involved were awarded sentences of death, long-term imprisonment.
β A commission was appointed by the British officials to enquire into the rebellion.
β There were severe uprisings post this Paika rebellion initiated by people from Kandha & Koi region.
β The major issue that prevailed post the Paika rebellion was the revenue policy which didnβt undergo any change.

π AUGUST OFFER vs. CRIPPS MISSION
π Time Period
β August Offer: August 1940
β Cripps Mission: March 1942
π Viceroy at the Time
β August Offer: Lord Linlithgow
β Cripps Mission: Lord Linlithgow
π Context/Reasons for Proposal
β August Offer: Britainβs precarious situation in WWII and the need for Indian support.
β Cripps Mission: Japanese advances in Southeast Asia heightened the need for Indian cooperation in the war effort.
π Main Proposals
β August Offer: Dominion status as the long-term goal; expansion of Viceroyβs Executive Council; promise of a post-war constituent assembly.
β Cripps Mission: Dominion status with the right to secede from the Commonwealth; a constituent assembly after the war to decide the constitution; provision for any province to opt out of the Indian Union.
π Shortcomings Highlighted by Indians
β August Offer: Vague promises; no immediate transfer of power; retention of British control over defense; no clear path to full independence.
β Cripps Mission: Dominion status instead of full independence; allowed provinces to secede, potentially leading to partition; no immediate transfer of power; British control over defense continued.
π Reaction of Indian Political Parties
β August Offer: Rejected by the Congress; welcomed by some other groups for its promise of eventual self-rule.
β Cripps Mission: Rejected by Congress and Muslim League; Congress criticized the lack of immediate power transfer and the provision for dominion status; Muslim League was dissatisfied with the lack of a clear commitment to Pakistan.
π Outcome/Result
β August Offer: Rejected by Indian National Congress; led to increased demand for complete independence.
β Cripps Mission: Failure; led to the Congress launching the Quit India Movement in August 1942.
π Impact on Indian National Movement
β August Offer: Strengthened Indian resolve for complete independence; highlighted the limitations of British promises.
β Cripps Mission: Intensified Indian demand for complete independence; demonstrated the unyielding nature of British policy; precipitated the Quit India Movement.
