Tiktok ban in India

In a massive development, the Home Ministry on Monday, has banned 59 Chinese Apps including Tik-Tok. The Centre has stated that it has recieved  many complaints from various sources including several reports about misuse of these apps  for stealing and surreptitiously transmitting users' data in an unauthorized manner to servers which have locations outside India. Hence, in a move to protect  sovereignty of Indian Cyberspace and to ensure interests of crores of Indian mobile users, the government has stated that this was a major blow  to China's Digital Silk Route ambitions. This move comes amid the ongoing India-China standoff at the Line of Actual Control (LAC).

Tiktok's previous bans

Earlier in April 2019, TikTok was briefly banned in India by the Madras High Court for hosting 'pornographic and sleazy' content. Recently millions of Indian users had also millions of Indians called for a ban on the app after videos promoting violence against women went viral, with NCW chief Rekha Sharma seeking a total ban on it. Zoom too had been called out for security issues, with the government then issuing a notification for safe usage of the application.

Geography of Landslides. Mitigation and Resilience.

A landslide is a geological event in which a mass of rock, earth, or debris moves down a slope under the force of gravity. Landslides can range in size from small to large and can be triggered by natural events such as heavy rainfall, earthquakes, or volcanic activity, or by human activities such as construction or mining. The geography of landslides is affected by a variety of factors that can increase the likelihood of landslides occurring in a particular area. These factors include slope angle and steepness, the type of soil and rock present, the climate and weather patterns of the region, the presence or absence of vegetation, and human activities such as construction, mining, and deforestation. Areas with steep slopes are more prone to landslides because gravity has a stronger effect on loose soil and rock, making it more likely to move downhill. Similarly, areas with loose, sandy soil or weak, fractured rock are more prone to landslides because they are less stable and more easil...

Geography of Flood. Types. Charector.

The geography of floods refers to the characteristics and patterns of floods in different geographic regions. Floods can occur in various landscapes, such as mountains, plains, coastal areas, and urban environments. The geography of a region plays a significant role in determining the frequency, magnitude, and impacts of floods. Some of the factors that influence the geography of floods include: Topography: The shape and elevation of the land can affect the flow and accumulation of water during a flood. For example, flat terrain can lead to slow-moving and widespread flooding, while steep slopes can result in flash floods and landslides. Climate: Regions with high rainfall or snowmelt can experience more frequent and intense floods, while dry regions may experience flash floods due to sudden, heavy rainfall. Hydrology: The characteristics of a river basin, such as its size, shape, and water flow, can influence the severity of a flood. For example, large river basins with extensive floo...

Landslides. USGS

Landslides. TYPES OF LANDSLIDES The term "landslide" describes a wide variety of processes that result in the downward and outward movement of slope-forming materials including rock, soil, artificial fill, or a combination of these. The materials may move by falling, toppling, sliding, spreading, or flowing. The animated GIF shows a graphic illustration of different types of landslides, with the commonly accepted terminology describing their features. The various types of landslides can be differentiated by the kinds of material involved and the mode of movement.

Flood prone regions India

Floods are natural disasters characterized by the overflow of water onto normally dry land. Various factors contribute to floods, including intense rainfall, rapid snowmelt, storm surges from coastal storms, and the failure of dams or levees. The geographical explanation involves understanding the key components of flood-prone regions: 1. Proximity to Water Bodies:    Flood-prone regions are often situated near rivers, lakes, or coastal areas. These locations are more susceptible to flooding as they are in close proximity to large water sources that can overflow during heavy precipitation or storms. 2. Topography:    Low-lying areas with gentle slopes are prone to flooding. Water naturally flows to lower elevations, and flat terrains allow water to accumulate easily. Valleys and floodplains are common flood-prone areas due to their topographical characteristics. 3. Rainfall Patterns:    Regions with high and concentrated rainfall are more likely to experience flooding. Intense and prol...
