फारेस्ट फायर या अन्धविश्वास? जानिए क्यूँ लगती है पहाड़ो में आग?

आजकल हमें आये दिन उदयपुर की पहाड़ियों या मंगरों पर तेज़ आग लगते हुए दिखती है। पर क्या आपने कभी सोचा है, अभी तो ढंग से गर्मिया आयी भी नहीं और इतनी तेज़ आग अलग-अलग पहाड़ों पर क्यों दिखाई दे रही है? आग लग भी रही है तो सारे पहाड़ों पर क्यों नहीं लेकिन कुछ पहाड़ों पर ही क्यों?

आग एक प्राकृतिक रूप से लगती है – ज्यों की अक्सर गर्मियों के दिनों में तेज़ हवा चलती है तो पेड़ों के आपस में टकराने से घर्षण उत्पन्न होता है जिसके कारण लगती है। लेकिन ये बात हमें समझ में आती उस से पहले किसी ने हमें इंस्टाग्राम पर एक मेसेज किया – जिसमें पहाड़ों पर लगी आग के चित्र के साथ हमें लिखा – “अंधविश्वास की आग” जब हमने उन महाशय से पूछा तो हम हैरान हो गए यह बात जानकार की आग मानवीय भी हो सकती है।

हमने जाना की आदिवासियों में जब कोई मनोकामना माँगता है तो वह यह भी घोषणा करता है की जब उनकी मनोकामना पूरी हो जाएगी तो वह ‘मगरा नहलाएगा’। मगरा नहलाने का अर्थ है, छोटी पहाड़ी/मगरा/मगरी के एक क्षेत्र को चुनकर, उस जगह आग लगाना।

हमारी उत्सुकता और बढ़ी तो हमने कुछ और बुजुर्ग गाँव के लोगों से पूछा कि किस तरह की मनोकामना पूरी होने पर यह किया जाता है, तो पता लगा की मनोकामना में डकैती, चोरी या बच्चा माँगने की मन्नत पूरी होना शामिल है। वैसे अब लोगों ने डकैती या चोरिया कम कर दी है।

हमें यह भी जानने को मिला कि इसे चूंदड़ ओढ़ाना भी कहते हैं क्योंकि जब आग की लपटे लाल निकलती तब इसे चूंदड़ ओढ़ाना कहा जाता है, इस दौरान कई जानवर भी मर जाते है जिसे यही आदिवासी लोग बलि चढ़ाना भी मानते है।

हाँ अब अंधविश्वास कहो या विश्वास, लेकिन आदिवासियों के लिए ये विश्वास है। ……. हाँ हमारे लिए ये अंधविश्वास हो सकता है।

Wearing mask in public places mandatory in Udaipur

In the midst of a coronavirus epidemic, the district administration on Friday made it mandatory for people to wear masks in public areas. Violation of the directive can lead to legal action under Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

According to the order released by the district authorities in Udaipur, all persons in public places like streets, hospitals, markets, offices, etc must wear a 3-ply mask or cloth mask compulsorily. The order also states that any person who is moving around in his personal or official vehicle must be wearing these masks compulsorily.

Additionally, a person or officer will attend any meeting or go to the workplace wearing the facemasks.

States like UP and Odisha have already made the wearing of masks compulsory in the entire state. In fact, the Odisha Government has even instructed all petrol pumps across major cities to not dispense fuel to anyone who is not found wearing a mask.

An advisory from the health department recommends home-made cotton, double-layer reusable masks for use as the first line of protection. The health ministry has also released guidelines on the specifications for homemade masks.

Check out the guidelines for Homemade Protective Cover for Face and Mouth:

Homemade Mask by MoHFWMoHFW

Homemade face cover is a good way for maintaining personal hygiene and its usage would certainly help in maintaining overall hygienic health conditions.

Therefore, the advisory suggests the use of handmade reusable face cover for people who are not suffering from medical conditions or having breathing difficulties. These people must use this mask when they step out of their house.

However, the advisory does not recommend homemade masks for:

  • Health Workers
  • Those in contact with COVID-19 Patients
  • COVID-19 Patients

These categories of people are required to wear specified protective gear.
