One Belt One Road Initiative :

•This project was launched by President Xi Jinping, in the year 2013.
• He called for the building of a silk road economic belt, which was named as the One Belt One Road (OBOR).
•It is a strategy to connect Asia with central Asia, Europe, and the countries around the Indo-pacific region. 
•This includes the formation of new ports, creating SEZs, facilitating E-commerce, and creating trade policies.

Features of OBOR:

The initiative of OBOR is divided into 2 parts:

1.The 'Belt' refers to the land-based ' Silk Road Economic Belt. ' It will link China to Central Asia, Eastern Europe, and Western Europe.

2.The 'Road' refers to the maritime ' 21st Century Silk Road. ' It will link South -East Asia, Africa, and Central Asia to China.

There are 6 economic corridors and 1 maritime road are decided under this initiative:

1.Eurasian Land Bridge (Connecting Western China with Western Russia)'

2.China - Mongolia - Russia (Connecting Northern China with Eastern part of Russia via Mongolia)

3.China - Central Asia and West Asia Corridor (Connecting West China with Turkey via West Asia)

4.China - Indochina (Connecting South China with Singapore)

5.Bangladesh - China - India - Myanmar (connecting China with Myanmar) 

6..China - Pakistan- Economic Corridor (Connecting China with Pakistan)

7.Maritime Sea route (Connecting the South China Sea with the Indian Ocean and South Pacific Ocean)

India’s stance on OBOR:

-First and foremost, it has to be noted that India so far has not taken a position on the OBOR project.
- The most pressing of India’s concerns is the CPEC corridor of China- Pakistan, which passes through POK, an area of conflict for India.

What are the options India has?

-If India does decide to participate in the project, it will help India’s border to develop better infrastructure. 
-Improved connectivity with close neighbors will also be fulfilled.

-However, India can take steps for connectivity on its own. We have project Mausam, an initiative to reconnect and re-establish communication links between countries of the Indian Ocean and enhancing their cultural values.

-The Chabahar port project is another such initiative. This gives India access to Afghanistan, Central Asia, and Europe, bypassing Pakistan completely.
- This is a connectivity solution for India in Central Asia. If India does choose to participate actively in there will be a huge advantage in terms of infrastructure and trade.

-We are also rapidly increasing the pace of developing new ports as well as renovating the new ones under Sagarmala Project.

-In conclusion, it can be stated that it’s reasonable to keep the doors of engagement open and carve out a niche for itself, in a manner that is perhaps mutually beneficial.

cellular organization

Cellular Organisation You know that in order to build a house, bricks are arranged in a certain pattern. Similarly, our body is made up of similar structures called   cells,   which assemble to form our body. Hence, cells are the structural units of our body. But who discovered and coined the term ‘cells’?  Let us explore. The discovery of cells was first made by Robert Hooke. While examining a section of a cork tree under the microscope, he observed small compartment-like structures and named them cell. With the discovery of advanced microscopes (like electron microscopes), the study of the structure of cells and various cell organelles was made possible. Microscope What is a microscope?  A microscope is an instrument used to see the objects that are not visible to the naked eye.
