Good evening to all and welcome to the session the Hindu editorial analysis for Proficiency in English today’s editorial is all about section 106 of the btia Nay sanit concerning hit and run accidents and the response of the truck drivers based on this new Clause let to start the session with the
Tone of the editorial the tone of the editorial is balanced and analytical the writer is discussing the implications of implications and important word consequences of section 106 of the btia Nay Anita BNS concerning or related to hit and run accidents and the response from truck drivers first we’ll see the words not
Too many words the first one aggravate aggravate we have got many time aggravate means what make a problem injury or offense worse or more serious here you can also say think of a few idioms like add fuel to the fire add salt to the injury make something very bad already bad make it
Worse aggravate in conversational English someone tries to do that we say don’t aggravate the situation scrutinize also we have got many of time part of speech verb aggravate also verb examine or inspect closely and thoroughly you try to examine or inspect something very closely or thoroughly then it is called scrutiny
Scrutinize homicide an important word you guys have started wonderful NAU Anusha homicide part of speech noun here we have a suffix what is a suffix over here side side means what kill when we talk about enrichment of word power I usually tell students you have to enrich your word power one first
And the most important approach you have to learn the words from a context second you have to learn the words based on Roots prefixes and suffixes what is the reason when you try to learn according to one study if you learn about 100 prefixes suffixes and Roots you can
Unlock the meanings of one lakh words English has about 8 lakh words of the 8 lakh words you can unlock the meanings of one lak words based on Roots prefixes suffixes based on this suffix you can think of a lot of important words first one homy side homo means what one
Meaning same another meaning Homo sapiens man’s name biological name Homo sapian sapiens human being one human being kills another human being that act is called the killing of one human being by another it is called homicide but based on this you have to recollect some important words in many exams they’ve
Given the word genocide tell me what is the meaning of the word genocide yes that’s true genocide means killing people of a particular race or Community you try to kill the people of a particular race or Community it is called genocide then you have to recollect I’m sure many of you know
Patricide p means father patricide killing one’s father matricide matter means mother killing one’s mother pror side an important word what I have noticed fraternity means what Brotherhood based on that a lot of students think fratricide killing one’s brother but do remember practi side means killings one’s brother or sister this is
Something important you have to remember don’t think it is only killing one’s brother could be brother or sister then you have words like infanticide pde insecticide pesticide suicide sororicide all these words one shot you can learn and here you can create word Maps take a particular root word or Prix or suffix
Draw lines in different directions and try to write all the words based on that particular root or prefix or suffix and easy to learn easy to remember easy to recollect abstain it takes a preposition from we have got many your time part of speech verb restrain this also takes a preposition
From oneself from doing or enjoying something not to indulge refrain from something don’t indulge in something that is sensual or that gives pleasure abstain from drinks abstain from bad habits exactly refrain also you can think one more word over here refrain Resort we all know as a noun
Summer Resort Winter Resort but here Resort is a verb as a verb it’s an important word turn to and adopt a course of action especially an extreme or undesirable one so as to resolve a difficult situation you want to resolve a difficult situation then you take an
Extreme step then we say they have resorted to generally it takes the crowd has resorted to violence a resort to violence a resort to Crime combinations also very important stringent we have got many a Time stringent goes with rules and regulations rules especially part of speech adjective marked by rigor
Strictness or severity generally we say strict being very strict fatal causes death dangerous from that you get fatalities fatalities known fatal adjective fatal accident causing death and occurrence of death by accident in war or from disease but generally we use it with accidents fatal accident fatalities non form culpable
Homicide that is there in the a list I had to separate culpable part of speech adjective deserving blame something is worth you can consider you can blame deserving blame culpable usually takes a word culpable offense one more word culpable homicide these are the typical combinations owners we have got many of
Time part of speech noun one’s duty or responsibility it is a it is the owners of someone means what responsibility of someone free also many words are familiar this is what happens when you read the Hindu editorial every day for 6 months to 9 months you will become very good at
English one thing you’ll become knowledgeable second thing you’ll become good at reading comprehension skill vocabulary and with this you can get three four jobs one short in a short span of 9 to 12 months how many months maximum one year same words get repeated same context
Same idiom same phrasal verbs and in the exam you get the same context when you read a sentence you feel oh this is familiar and you will be able to answer with a broad smile free par ofp verb run away from a place or situation of danger generally it goes with a
Thief we can also sometimes we also flee whenever there’s a danger imagine someone says there’s a bomb in a particular place you are there then you try to flee from that place run away from that danger lynching you may get as a passage in the past they gave when I
Give the 50 topics I use this also social cultural problems I think uh a few years ago this topic was in the Limelight lynching Lynch is a verb lynching is a noun form of a group of people kill someone for an alleged offense without a legal trial especially
By hanging usually this goes with villages Villages rural areas they suspect a person usually someone like they think an old woman is a witch or an old no fugitive is different that is entirely different we cannot use as a ver free goes with running away from danger but fugitive has a negative
Connotation you commit crime and you run away then we use the word fugitive in a way related but not exactly witch or black magic or sorcerer in villages they suspect a particular person an old woman to be a witch they feel she has resorted to Witchcraft then they catch that old
Woman they hit they kill usually by hanging that act is called lynching by a group of people they don’t have the legal right without a legal trial they take the law into their hands then we use the term lynching those are the words from today’s editorial not too many words and
Many words are quite familiar my pleasure na do striking fear what does it mean cause fear among whom about what on hit and run accident cases and section 106 of the BH Naya Sanita this is all about hit and run hit and run cases in the past H Harry Potter that is
True in the past we had 3 304 a section in its place the government has brought a new section 106 and here because of the new section the imprison term from 2 years gone up to 5 years sometimes potential 10 years obviously the truck drivers they have their own
Apprehensions and they try to protest what is the main idea driver strike is a test for severity of Hit and Run Clause it’s a test for what severity of Hit and Run clause in new Penal Code the new penal code is called what BNS nay
So it it is a test for severity of this hit and run Clause how severe it is and what are the implications how do the truck drivers respond they have already responded how have they responded and what is the stand taken by the government the provision in the BH n
Sanita bis that treats hit and run accident cases as an aggravated form of the offense of causing death by rashness or negligence will be the first in the new yet to be implemented code to be scrutinized for its severity here they have used the word test for severity so
They’re going to scrutinize examine the severity of this particular Clause 106 related to hit and run cases or hit and run offense the provision in the bhartia Naya Sanita that treats hit and run accident cases as an aggravated form aggravated means what already bad changing that to worse
Of the offense it is considered an offense of causing death by rashness there are two words over here rash driving you have to know the combination I’m sure you all know rash driving very fast careless we use the term rash driving and negligence not taking care of some certain things
While driving like not giving the indicator not following the traffic rules rational or negligence will be the first in the new there is a particular clause in the new Indian Penal Code which is now called B Sanita and the first in the new law yet to be implemented code this is an important
Expression yet to come yet to come yet to implement active voice yet to be implemented passive voice yet to be implemented to be scrutinized for its severity this is also in passive to be scrutinized examined for its severity based on this with truck drivers worried about the implications
Of section 106 of the BN abstaining from work here you have to look at this with truck drivers abstaining from work all these are used words are used to add more information with truck drivers worried about the implications of section 106 of the BNS but how should you read this
Where truck drivers abstaining from work the government has promised to bring it into play only after consultation with the all India India motor transport Congress immediately after this has come into the Limelight the truck drivers went on strike initially transport owners truck drivers went on strike go
On strike remember the preposition go on strike past went on strike they abstain from work abstained from work means what to go on strike with truck drivers abstaining from work what is what was the response of the government the government has promised has promised present perfect active
Voice to bring it into play means to make it active to invoke that only after consultations with the all India motor transport Congress they’re not going to implement just like that based on the apprehensions of the truck drivers looking at the severity of the particular Clause the government has
Assured they will not implement or they will not invoke first they will talk to the particular Congress consultations then they will consider what is that organization all India motor transport Congress writers for the flow for coherence they use Link words usually they are contrasting words they could be
Be contrasting words a reason or purpose any of these here contrast however whether Transporters body taking the stand that the strike was primarily resorted to here the preposition is very important by the drivers who appeared additional criminal liability the issue will require tactful handling however with the Transporters
Ah very good who is that however but yet in spite of despite the although even though very good I appreciate that Anisha after the triple sunnd also Transporters tell me why is this important you have to respond here we have a noun in the plural form when we have a plural noun
That ends in the letter s we should use the apostrophe after the letter s generally positive case we use apostrophe Bo bag mean means what it belongs to one particular whose bag is that that boy’s bag but common error a lot of a lot of people write boys
Hostile is this right or wrong wrong here we have a noun in the plural form what is a noun here boys because the hostel belongs to all the boys and this plural noun ends in the letter s based on that we have to use the apostrophe after the letter S boys hostile but
Outside you see a lot of people make that mistake because the painter is not good at English this you have it has to catch your attention Transporters plural based on that apostrophe after s body taking the stand that what is the stand taken by Transporters body the strike was
Primarily resorted to by the drivers who feared additional criminal liability based on that the issue will require tactful handling tactful means what careful it has now become an issue that concerns transport workers than those running the business of Transportation here we have two groups ONE Group Transport owners
Those who run the business of Transportation the other transport workers because the owners said it was the workers the truck drivers resorted to strike now the issue that concerns this issue concerns truck dri Transport drivers not those who are running the business of Transportation it may appear that a
Strike against a law that makes penal Provisions concerning hit and run accidents more stringent is unjustified generally what happens when the the government uh comes out with or comes up with a particular law that is very strict and that deals with something like hit and drawn case people should
Appreciate on the other hand they have gone on strike so at the outset it looks like it cannot be justified that means unjustified it may appear chances are there that a strike against a law that makes penal Provisions concerning hit and run accidents more stringent is unjustified obviously especially in the
Context of Road accidents becoming a leading source of fatalities in the country especially what is the context here in the context of Road accidents may major source of Road accidents uh fatalities because of Road accidents becoming a leading source of fatalities in the country so many deaths in the
Country but what is the leading source of the deaths of fatalities Road accidents keeping that in mind if the law becomes more strict or stringent they have to be happy but they’re protesting so apparently it looks like unjustified however contrasting information it has also drawn attention to the
Question whether there was a case for increasing the jail term for accidents from 2 to 5 years in all cases on the other hand it has also drawn attention draw attention means to make someone focus on something however it has also drawn attention to the question whether there was a case if at
All there was a case for increasing the jail means is there any justification increase the jail term for accidents from 2 to 5 years in all cases and to 10 years in the case of pure to report them to the authorities in the past based on 304
304a 2 years now based on section 106 2 years to 5 years changed in some cases if they do not inform the authorities it may go up to 10 years section 106 of the BNS will replace here we have two section 106 the latest one old one
304a section 106 of the BNS will replace section 304 a of the IPC which punish the causing of death by rash and negligent act that does not amount to culpable homicide this hit and run case or hit and run cases are not considered they do not amount to culpable homicide culpable means what
Deserving blame and homicide means what the killing of one human being by another they do not amount to homicide culpable homicide the existing section provides for a 2-year jail term that’s what I said from 2 years it has gone to 5 years in some cases 10 years there are three components to section
106 what is the first one first it prescribes means it tells this is a term a present term of up up to 5 years besides a fine for causing death due to rash or negligent acts that is one thing second it provides for reduced criminal liability for registered medical doctors
Of two years in jail if death occurred in the course of a medical procedure imagine during medical procedure death occurred then reduced criminal liability for registered medical doctors of two years in jail the second Clause concerns Road accident in which if the person involved in rash and negligent driving
Escapes without reporting it to a police officer or a magistrate soon after the incident the imprisonment May extend to 10 years and a fine there are two Dimensions here one is from 2 years it has gone to 5 years in case of Hit and
Run k case at the same time in the case of Hit and Run case if the driver does not inform the authorities the police officer or the district magistrate then it may go up to 10 years extend to 10 years with a and a fine generally what happens what do the
Drivers do whenever there’s an accident what is the reaction of the drivers this sentence talks about that drivers flee an accident seen out of fear of lynching flea means what Escape run away from danger why do they do that they have this fear of lynching lynching means what imagine something happened at a
Particular place a particular driver caused accident and the person died those who are in and around they try to catch the driver first thing they hit him black and blue second very serious they may kill that person that is what we call lynching because of that fear
The drivers IM immediate reaction here I would like to tell two terms which are very important fight or flight mechanism have you heard of these words flight or fight or flight mechanism all animals Take Fight or Flight mechanism except the big cats the predators predators take fight mechanism all other animals including
Man snakes also they take flight mechanism flight means what to run away from the danger H to beat Black and Blue flight mechanism so here drivers freeing from the scene is nothing but flight mechanism escaping that is quite natural in such cases if at all they
Flee or run away from the spot in such cases the authorities seem to believe that such drivers can move away from the scene of crime and then report to the police so what is the stand taken by the authorities they feel the driver should not run away the driver should not flee
The driver should move away from that place and inform the police but to what extent that is practical that’s a different question the term hit and run why do we say when do we say hit and run case now the writer it been at the beginning of the editorial the term hit
And run is one in which the offending vehicle is not identified that means you cannot tell ah yes same questions pandu if you have already watched that for today same tomorrow I may change that is different this is different not today it is the same from tomorrow I will change
It must be EMP so here the the number you know the number then it is not hit and run k case the number is not there missing then it is hit and run case it must be emphasized that once the person causing a fatal accident is identified the owners the responsibility
On the police to prove culpability for rational or negligence Remains the Same after identifying also the responsibility is with the police to prove given that many accidents are caused due to poor Road conditions too now another dimension here what is that Dimension Road accidents may happen because of two reasons one reason
Because of the rash driving negligence of the truck drivers at the same time the J Walkers who is a J Walker I’ve have given many your time those who attend regularly answer the question who is a J Walker J Walker means a person who does not follow the traffic rulle while
Walking imagine a truck driver driving at normal speed but all of a sudden from nowhere a person crosses the road that person is called a J Walker that results in accident in that case we cannot blame the truck driver mistake of the jwalker and also sometimes what happens road conditions are very
Bad and uh if you take uh road conditions imagine the driver truck driver driving all of a sudden he comes across a pothole or he comes across a puddle what is the difference between a pothole and a puddle pothole means a hole in the middle of the road and this
Particular hole during rainy season Monsoon time it becomes bigger and gets filled with water when it has water we call it puddle he may try to avoid that pothole or puddle then then it may result in accident that also we have to consider given that many accidents are
Caused due to poor road conditions too a relevant question a pertinent question is whether the law should focus on raising present terms or on a comprehensive exhaustive complete accident prevention policy package covering imprisonment compensation and safety they should have editorial Ops it is better better to focus on comprehensive accident prevention policy
Package rather than raising prison terms when can you raise a pris terms if everything is normal what is a normal condition roads are very good infrastructure is very good no J Walkers everyone follows the traffic rules while walking while driving and compliance 100% compliance when it comes to following the rules while driving
Obviously then you have to blame you can blame the driver but with all these IPS and butts We cannot put the blame squarely on the driver and we cannot increase the term that is a major apprehension of the drivers in my opinion can be justified it is not that simple you
Cannot simply every time put the blame on the driver it is not like that that’s all about this editorial thanks for being with me till the fend of the session of the editorial now let us go to questions based on comprehension skill from this editorial try to answer
The first one what is the primary concern of truck drivers regarding section 106 of the bhattia Naya sanhita BNS the question is about the concern truck drivers regarding one particular section 106 increased the points for Road violations no fear of additional criminal liability in Hit and Run cases hold this
One why those Anu compensation okay hasman hashman has a different meaning compensation is a positive word hushh money a negative word payment bribe Kickback hush money bribe Kickback they all have negative connotations compensation is a neutral term usually positive connotation lack of representation in the government decision making not correct
Dissatisfaction with all India motor transport Congress so what is the answer here B is the answer additional criminal liability from 2 years 5 years and 10 years which provision in the BNS provision in the BNS is being scrutinized for its severity particularly by truck drivers good I appreciate that your
Response you all have a positive attitud itude section 304a of the IPC section 106 of the BNS section 10 it does not talk about that five does not talk about that it is not about this is old one the issue is all about the new one which one

Answer for question number three yes what is a potential jail term for causing death due to rash or negligent acts as per section 106 of the BNS potential jail term that means you have to consider the maximum potential jail term means maximum jail term so what is the
Answer 2 years 5 years 8 years 10 years it is potential jail term is 10 years question number five according to the editorial why do some driver s flee the scene of a hit and run accident why do they run away from the scene what could be the reason or what is the
Reason clearly mentioned in the passage to avoid paying fines no fear of lynching lack of awareness about the legal consequences to protest against the against the government no they have this fear of lynching so they flee idioms and phrases five idioms five meanings try to get all the fives these
Are very important SBI especially go to the dogs this goes with efforts hard work and also money investment word combinations are very important do remember from the exam point of view your effort should not go to the dogs your effort should not go down the drain the money you have spent
