The Success Story of Vijnana Bharati:
The need of the hour
The Need Mission
The year 2015 marked a proud moment for Vijnana Bharati a National movement dedicated
to the integrated development of India through the intervention of Science, Engineering and
Technology as it received two awards, the ‘Honorable mention Award’ and ‘Popular choice
Award’ in a recently held ‘Crowds & Climate Conference’ at Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT), USA.
The conference was organized by the Climate CoLab an MIT initiative focused on different
aspects of the climate change problem (www.climatecolab.org) owing to the United Nations’
climate agreement anticipated to fall short of the 20C carbon emissions target. Climate
CoLab is a growing community of people around the world, who work together online through
a series of interrelated contests focused on global climate change.
Vijnana Bharati participated in one such contest and had submitted a proposal entitled
“National campaign in India aimed to create a network of young Energy Ambassadors”. The
project secured the ‘Popular Choice Award’ of the 71 proposals submitted for the contest,
“Shifting attitudes and behavior”.
In addition, a panel of experts which included Robert Armstrong, Director of the MIT Energy
Initiative; Jason Jay, Director of the MIT Sloan Sustainability Initiative; John Reilly, Co-
Director of the Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change has also bestowed
the prestigious ‘Honorable Mention award’ from the 37 winners of the 15 contests run on
the Climate CoLab.
This has not only added a feather in the achievements of Vijnana Bharati but has also
provided recognition to the efforts made by the team towards climate change. This is for the
first time that a proposal from India has won awards in this conference.
This project proposes a model of creating a network of young Energy Ambassadors
UrjaRakshaks, for energy conservation. Building a new energy conscious generation by
imparting education to school children can prove to be effective for a developing country like
India in the long run is the core idea of the project proposal. The project will be implemented
in a phase-wise manner in the next 10 years. Phase 1 and Phase 2 are already completed in
different parts of India where 2100 Energy Ambassadors are created in phase 1 and 4,800
in phase 2 with total energy saving of around 2,41,500 KWh achieved. In the next phase,
1000 schools across the country are going to be selected and from these schools a total of
1,00,000 Energy Ambassadors will be enrolled based on their skills and interest. These
energy ambassadors will be engaged in various activities such as School Energy Policy,
Product Assembly Training, School & Home Energy Audit, Energy Film Fest, Guest lecturers
& workshops, Field trips, Competitions, National Students Energy Festival and so on…

It is proposed that saving energy will have additional impact on issues related to climate
change such as global warming. Ultimately it is believed that the Energy Ambassadors are
going to play a vital role in shaping the country’s economy. Even if we can save 1KWh of
electricity per day per person, then we can imagine the magnitude of energy that 1,00,000
Energy Ambassadors will save per year!! The project can be accessed at YouTube by the
name “Urja Wahini.”
The credit of the success of the project at the contest goes to the Team Vijnana Bharati.
This ambitious project was conceived
under the guidance of eminent scientists
Dr. Anil Kakodkar, former Chairman,
Atomic Energy Commission, Government
of India and Dr Vijay Bhatkar, Chairman,
Board of Governors, IIT Delhi.
The vision, hard work and untiring efforts
of Mr. Jayakumar (Secretary General),
Mr. Jayant Sahasrabuddhe (Organising
Secretary), Mr. Arun Raj (Secretary
General, National Energy & Environment
Development [NEED] Mission),
Mr. Vivekanand Pai (All India Secretary),
Dr. Akhilesh Tiwari, (Ujjain district
coordinator), Mr. Arun Khushwaha

(Bhopal District Coordinator) and Mr. Amit Kulkarni (Chief Coordinator, NEED Mission)
have marked the beginning towards the goal of making India energy self reliant. On behalf
of Vijnana Bharati, Mr. Arun Raj and Mr. Amit Kulkarni received the awards at “Crowds
& Climate Conference”, Massachusetts which was held alongside MIT’s Solve conference
where eminent people from all over the world like Mr. Ratan Tata, Ms. Kiran Mujumdar
Shaw were also present.

UNSOLVED MYSTERIES
Science and technology are marching ahead at breakneck speed. However, there are
certain incidents and phenomenon that are literally making science say BRB. These
happenings still have science scratching its head as there are no proper researched
theories that identify causes and effects.
Animal Migration

“Cells can sense the hydroxyapatite and respond to its

scaffolds, they turn into bone cells and start to up-regulate
their expression of bone specific genes. This is in the absence
of any other osteo-inducing substances. It’s just the interaction
between the cells and the material itself.”
That’s not to say that other substances couldn’t be combined into
the ink. Because the 3-D printing process is performed at room
temperature, Shah’s team was able to incorporate other elements,
such as antibiotics, into the ink.
“We can incorporate antibiotics to reduce the possibility of
infection after surgery,” Shah said. “We also can combine the
ink with different types of growth factors, if needed, to further
enhance regeneration. It’s really a multi-functional material.”
One of the biggest advantages, however, is that the end product can be customized to the
patient. In traditional bone transplant surgeries, the bone -- after it’s taken from another
part of the body -- has to be shaped and molded to exactly fit the area where it is needed.
Physicians would be able to scan the patient’s body and 3-D print a personalized product
using Shah’s synthetic material. Alternatively, due to its mechanical
properties, the biomaterial can also be easily trimmed and
cut to size and shape during a procedure. Not only is
this faster, but also less painful compared to using
autograft material.
Shah imagines that hospitals may one day have
3-D printers, where they can print customized
implants while the patient waits.
“The turnaround time for an implant that’s
specialized for a customer could be within 24
hours,” Shah said. “That could change the world
of craniofacial and orthopedic surgery, and,
I hope, will improve patient outcomes”

Neurotransmitters:
The Chemical
Messengers of Neurons
Prof. K.K. Mishra
Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education
Tata Institute of Fundamental Research
Mumbai
For a human being to think, act or merely to exist, the cells of the body must communicate with
one another. They do so by means of two systems. One is hormonal system in which certain
chemicals are released by endocrine glands directly into circulation and they convey the
message to respective target cells. The other system of communication is nervous system in
which electrical signals are generated in the form of nerve impulse which is usually associated
with the rapid response to external stimuli. These two systems of the communication in
the body are not isolated but they are very much integrated and inter-dependent in their
functions. The nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) consisting
of brain and spinal cord, and
the peripheral nervous system
(PNS) that includes all
other nervous tissues. The
CNS is further grouped into
the ascending (to the brain)
and descending (from the brain)
pathways of neurons.
Likewise, PNS is divided
into afferent (Sensory)
neurons which direct their
information to CNS and efferent (Motor) neurons which direct their information away from
CNS. The elementary structural unit of nervous system is the neuron, a nerve cell. The
figure below shows the morphological features of a typical neuron. A neuron possesses a
cell body with numerous ramifications called dendrites, an axon and terminal fibres.
The propagation of nerve impulse involves an alteration in the permeability of membrane
that results in the free diffusion of Na+ - K+ ions. The impulse travels from dendrites to
cell body and then down to terminal fibres via. axon. This impulse is relayed through
the synapse – the specialized contact zone where one neuron communicates with
another neuron. The molecules that make the nervous system functionally dynamic
are neurotransmitters. By definition a neurotransmitter is a chemical substance that is
released synaptically by one neuron and subsequently affects another cell in a specific
way.
AMINO ACID TRANSMITTERS
86 Scientech
- www.sifbahrain.com www.sifbahrain.com Scientech
-
Glycine, L-glutamic acid and gamma-
amino butyric acid (GABA) are well known
examples of classical neurotransmitters.
Glycine, chemically an amino acetic acid,
is the simplest essential amino acid. It is
an inhibitory transmitter of the spinal cord
inter-neurons. Of amino acid transmitters,
GABA is the most studied and fascinating
neurotransmitter. Though its existence was
reported in brain in 1950, a final confirmation
of GABA being a legitimate neurotransmitter
came only in 1970. It is formed from glutamic
acid through a decarboxylation reaction. In
patients of anxiety-neurosis and depression,
the levels of GABA and its functional efficacy
in CNS is reported to be diminished.
RECENT RESEARCHES IN
NEUROCHEMISTRY
The identification of ATP, a form of cellular
energy as a significant neurotransmitter
and investigation of neuronal action of
nitric oxide (NO) have opened new avenues
for further extensive research in this field.
One could hardly imagine a decade ago
that NO is a highly significant regulator
involved in higher organisms. The most
startling and relatively recent aspect of NO
is its involvement in brain functions. The
researchers are surprised at the unusual
action of NO. Unlike other transmitters, it is
toxic and is not stored in vesicles, rather produced on demand. Nitric oxide is synthesized
from the semi-essential amino acid L-arginine by NO Synthase. Nitric oxide is a central and
peripheral neuronal messenger. It is involved in classical anterograde neuronal signalling
and has also unique properties as a retrograde transmitter. Within the CNS, nitric oxide is
released in response to increase in intracellular Ca2+ that follow stimulation of glutamate
receptors.
Of late a team of scientists has discovered that D-aspartic acid (D-Asp) is a novel
neurotransmitter that could potentially be used in the fight against neurological diseases such
as Parkinson’s and Schizophrenia. D-Asp meets all of the criteria that characterize biological
molecules which exhibit neurotransmitter activity: they are present in high concentrations
in the synaptic vesicles of axon terminals; synthesis for this amino acid occurs in neurons
by conversion of L-Asp to D-Asp via. D-aspartate racemase; depolarization of nerve endings
with potassium ions evokes an immediate release of D-Asp in a Ca2+ dependent manner;
specific receptors for D-Asp occur at the post-synaptic membrane; and stimulation of nerve
endings with D-Asp triggers signal transduction by increasing the second messenger cAMP.
D-Asp plays an important role in the initial phases of central nervous system development

in vertebrates and invertebrates. In humans, mice and chicken, large quantities of this
molecule are produced in the brain during embryonic development.
Endorphin
In 1973, Solomon Snyder and Candace Pert of Johns Hopkins University discovered
endorphin. Endorphin is short for “endogenous morphine.” It is structurally very similar
to the opioids (opium, morphine, heroin, etc.) in their abilities to produce a feeling of well-
being and has similar functions. It is involved in pain reduction and pleasure, and the
opioid drugs work by attaching to endorphin’s receptor sites. They are produced by the
brain during exercise, excitement, consumption of certain foods, love and orgasm.
β -Endorphin is an endogenous opioid neuropeptide found in the neurons of both the central
and peripheral nervous system. β-Endorphin is a peptide, 31 amino acids long. It is found
in neurons of the hypothalamus, as well as the pituitary gland. β-Endorphin was discovered
by Li and Chung in 1976. It is one of the five endorphins found in humans, the others are-
alpha endorphin, gamma endorphin, alpha neoendorphin and beta neoendorphin. It is used
as an analgesic in the body to numb for dull pains. That is the reason why humans start to
feel better immediately after an acute physical trauma even though the symptoms are still
present. It is because of body’s own response to trauma in order to control the sensation of
pain. The reason the pain dulls is because it binds to and activates opioid receptors. Beta
endorphin is a very potent analgesic, and is approximately 18-33 times more powerful than
morphine, a natural pain killer

Organic farming - Dr. Arvind Singh
Banaras Hindu University
The need of the hour Varanasi
Organic farming is a system of farming which does not use any form of chemical fertilizers or
other agro-chemicals and is dependent entirely on organic sources for crop nutrition and crop
husbandry. The main objective of organic farming is to develop a sustainable agriculture system,
which conserves environment, maintain soil fertility and ensures adequate food production.
Organic farming is also known as ‘Eco-farming’ and ‘Natural farming’. In this farming system
the maintenance of soil fertility and the control of pests and diseases are achieved through the
enhancement of biological processes and ecological interaction.
Organic farming has several advantages over conventional farming. This system of farming
reduces pollution hazard and less energy is used. Since no chemical pesticides, hormones
and antibiotics are used, residues from these substances are no longer a danger for human
health. Organic food fetches more prices than the produce obtained from conventional
agriculture. Furthermore, organic farming is less mechanized than conventional farming.
What are the principles of organic farming?
Organic farming practices are governed by a number of principles which are as follows:
(1) To maintain the soil fertility in long term without any effect on flora and fauna.
(2) To ensure production of food of high nutritional quality without pesticide residues.
(3) To conserve soil and water resources.
(4) To promote and enhance the use of renewable sources in farming practices.
(5) To mitigate environmental pollution arising owing to fertilizer and pesticide based
conventional farming system.
(6) To ensure protection and conservation of biological diversity.
(7) To sustain the genetic diversity of the agricultural system including the protection of
plant, livestock and wildlife habitat.
(8) To encourage and enhance biological cycles including microorganisms.
(9) To promote sustainable production and cultivation process in the long run; and
(10) To maintain the ecological stability.
Why organic farming is the need of the hour?
Conventional farming practices heavily based on use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides,
have created problems of land degradation, environmental pollution, deforestation, genetic
erosion, seepage and water logging, lowering of ground water tables, inter-crop disparities,
emergence of several diseases, pest multiplication, pest resurgence and resistance. Land
degradation includes soil erosion, soil salinity, soil alkalinity, soil acidity and loss of soil
fertility while the environmental degradation includes soil, water and air pollution.
Excessive uses of nitrogenous fertilizer in conventional farming decreases the potassium
content of crops. Similarly excessive potash treatment decreases valuable nutrients in foods,
such as ascorbic acid and carotene. The use of superphosphate leads to copper and zinc

-
deficiency in crop plants. Nitrate fertilizer increase the crop yield (carbohydrate) but at the
expense of proteins. Excessive fertilizer use produces over-sized fruits and vegetables, which
are prone to insects and other pests.
The fertilizers used to raise the crop yield are drained by rain water to the adjacent fresh
water bodies like rivers, lakes and ponds causing nutrient enrichment (especially nitrate
and phosphate) of the aquatic bodies. This phenomenon is called as ‘eutrophication’, which
triggers the luxuriant growth of blue green algae (cyanobacteria). The algal growth forms
floating scums or blankets of algae called as algal blooms. Blooms of algae are generally not
utilized by zooplanktons.
The pesticides moving from crop fields to aquatic
bodies affect the aquatic flora and fauna. Many
of non-biodegradable pesticides (Chlorinated
hydrocarbons) like D.D.T., B.H.C. etc. enter the
food chain and reach the human body causing
harmful effect to human health. Generally the
concentration of the pesticides increases with
increasing food chain and the phenomenon is
known as biological magnification. India's daily
diet is reported to contain 270 µg of D.D.T. and the
level of accumulated D.D.T. in the body tissue of
an average Indian is highest in the world varying
between 13 to 31.0 ppm (parts per million). Cases
of cancer, deformities, hepatic diseases and neurological disorders from pesticide poisoning
have been reported from cotton growing areas of Gujarat, Maharastra and Andhra Pradesh.
Pesticide endosulphan used in aerial spray by Plantation Corporation of Kerala over the
areas of Kasargod and Rajapuram cashew plantation lead to severe cases of child blindness,
physical retardation and cancer in these areas.
The excessive use of nitrogenous fertilizers causes acidification of soil, resulting in the loss
of soil fertility. The indiscriminate use of pesticides to control pests kills several useful flora
and fauna of the soil, which promote soil fertility. Besides the targeted insects, useful insects
promoting cross and self-pollination are also killed. This leads to decline in crop productivity
owing to reduced rate of pollination accomplished by insects.
In conventional farming practices there is constant use of some high yielding varieties of the
crops in place of nutritive indigenous varieties resulting into uniformity in biodiversity. This
poses threat to the loss of biodiversity. The gradual loss of variability in the cultivated forms
and in their wild relatives is referred to as ‘genetic erosion’. This variability arose in nature
over an extremely long period of time, and if lost would not be reproduced during a short
time period. In conventional farming the loss of biological diversity is enhanced due to over-
exploitation of natural resources, excessive use of pesticides and environmental pollution.
Hence, the ecology in conventional farming is fragile.

The various aforesaid side effects of expensive conventional farming on soil, crops and human
health have compelled to look for an alternative in the form of organic farming. The latter
is inexpensive, sound, safe and sustainable in long run without any adverse impact on the
environment. Therefore, the organic farming has become inevitable to tackle with the problem
of land degradation, environmental pollution, biodiversity depletion and contamination of
food grains from pesticide residues.
What are the management practices in organic farming?
The management practices for organic farming differ from those of conventional farming. The
important steps in this type of farming are conservation of soil and genetic resources, integrated
nutrient management, integrated weed management and integrated pest management.

In organic farming the weeds are controlled by employment of physical, cultural and biological
method. Insect pests are controlled by combination of cultural and biological methods and at
the same time use of resistant crop varieties.
Crop rotation practices are key to success of organic farming. Crop rotation is not only
important for the soil fertility management but is also helpful in weed, insects and disease
control. Legumes are essential in rotation practices for nitrogen supplement to the soil.
The practice of mixed cropping increases the crop yield and avoids the chances of disease
occurrence and pest infestation.
Conclusion
Conventional farming practices following the advent of Green revolution have led to several-
fold increase in food grain production but at the cost of depletion of natural resources and
ecological instability. The organic farming, which strictly avoids the use of chemical fertilizers,
pesticides and growth hormones also prevents land degradation, conserves environment and
checks the loss of biological diversity. The food grains produced through organic farming are
free from pesticide residues and are of high nutritional quality. Therefore organic farming
has become inevitable for the conservation of natural resources and the maintenance of
ecological stability.
