(Online Course) Contemporary Issues for IAS Mains 2012: Yojana Magazine - Balance of Payments In India

Posted: 11 Sep 2012 12:07 AM PDT


Yojana Magazine

Foreign Trade - Balance of Payments In India

Q. What do you understand by Balance of Payments?

Answer: Balance of payments (BoP) accounts are the accounting record of all monetary transactions between a country and the rest of the world. In other words, it is a record of all transactions made between one particular country and all other countries during a specified period of time. If a country has received money, this is known as a credit. Similarly, if a country has paid or given money, the transaction is counted as a debit. Theoretically saying the BoP should always be zero, meaning that assets or credits and liabilities or debits should balance. But in practice this is rarely the case and, therefore, the BoP of a country usually has a deficit or a surplus. A negative balance of payments means that more money is flowing out of the country than coming in, and vice versa. Indian economy which is the ninth largest in the world in terms of nominal GDP and the fourth largest in terms of purchasing power parity was having very strong balance of payment figures during the early 2000s and the global financial crisis adversely affected the smooth growing of the overall BoP balance. The international BoP of a country reflects its economic strengths and weaknesses. A typical problem of the developing countries is of chronic deficit, India being no exception. It is therefore necessary to have a look at the overall BoP position of Indian economy which is adversely affected by the global financial crisis and the recent global economic developments.

CAG: Six Answers To Clear Doubts & Misperceptions

The relentless campaign to discredit the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) and diminish the institution is continuing. One is not surprised; this has happened before, for instance in the Bofors case. However, one is dismayed because the campaign, unwittingly aided by some elements in themedia, seems to be succeeding to some extent. It seems urgently necessary to dispel certain doubts and misperceptions before they gain ground and cause more damage.

(Online Course) GS Concepts : Gist of N.C.E.R.T [Drainage System]

Posted: 10 Sep 2012 11:19 PM PDT


Subject : Geography
Chapter : The Gist of N.C.E.R.T

Topic: Drainage System

A river drains the water collected from a specific area, which is called its 'catchment area'.

The flow of water through well-defined channels is known as 'drainage' and the network of such channels is called a 'drainage system'. The drainage pattern of an area is the outcome of the geological time period, nature and structure of rocks, topography, slope, amount of water flowing and the periodically of the flow.

An area drained by a river and its tributaries is called a drainage basin. The boundary line separating one drainage basin from the other is known as the watershed. The catchments of large rivers are called river basins while those of small rivulets and rills are often referred to as watersheds. There is however, a slight difference between a river basin and a watershed. Watersheds are small in area while the basins cover larger areas.

Indian drainage system may be divided on various bases. On the basis of discharge of water (orientations to the sea), it may be grouped into: (i) the Arabian Sea drainage; and (ii) the Bay of Bengal drainage. They are separated from each other through the Delhi ridge, the Aravalis and the Sahyadris (water divide is shown by a line in Figure. Nearly 77 per cent of the drainage area consisting of the Ganga, the Brahmaputra, the Mahanadi, the Krishna, etc. is oriented towards the Bay of Bengal while 23 per cent comprising the Indus, the Narmada, the Tapi, the Mahi and the Periyar systems discharge their waters in the Arabian Sea.

(Online Course) Pub Ad for IAS Mains: Chapter: 6 (State Government and Administration) - Finance Commission (Paper -2)

Posted: 10 Sep 2012 02:44 AM PDT


Paper - 2
Chapter: 6 (State Government and Administration)

FINANCE COMMISSION

The Indian Finance Commission is a unique constitutional body, which has survived fifty years. We do not find similar Constitutional institutions even in older federations like the USA, Canada and Australia.

In any federation, the distribution of governmental functions, which involve expenditure obligations, and sources of revenue, which ensure the capacity to raise revenues, are distributed on the basis of different set of principles. This leads to two types of imbalances between the expenditure requirements of the national and state governments and the capacity to raise revenue to meet these requirements. One imbalance is called vertical federal fiscal imbalance, which indicates the deficit faced by the States vis-a-vis the surplus experienced by the national government, and another is horizontal federal fiscal imbalance, which indicates the relative financial imbalance between their own revenues and expenditures among the states themselves.

Work of Finance Commission

The most important part of the Finance Commissions' work is the methodology of the Commission is

  1. To determine the quantum of divisible pool of the taxes,

  2. The quantum of grants and

  3. Other financial reliefs.
