Maharashtra government has proposed setting up of solar power systems as an integral part of water supply projects to be taken up under Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT). A proposal in this regard was made in the state annual action plan (SAAP) for 2015-16 presented before the inter-ministerial Apex Committee for AMRUT chaired by Union Urban Development Secretary Madhusudhan Prasad here today. Officials of the Maharashtra government explained to the Apex Committee that using solar powered pumps for operating pumping stations would enhance financial sustainability of water supply projects proposed to be taken up by the state government under Atal Mission. According to UD Ministry, Department of Expenditure supported this proposal. The Apex Committee accorded in principle approval to the proposal and directed the state government to undertake detailed cost-benefit analysis before proceeding further in the matter.

*) - Graven Images: Religion in Comic Books and Graphic Novels edited by A. David Lewis and Christine Hoff Kraemer (panels.net)
If you’re more interested in commentary on religion and comics, this might be the book for you. This collection of essays (which would also cross-mojonate with our recommendations for “books about comics”) examines religion and comics in various contexts: as a missionary tool, theological critique, and settings devout, educational, satirical, and more.
----------------------------
*) - Boxers and Saints by Gene Luen Yang and Lark Pien
These two graphic novels examine the Boxer Revolution from the perspective of a Chinese boy who believes whole heartedly in the powers of ancient Chinese gods and a Chinese girl who adopts Christianity. A religion “other than your own” is central to the plot of these books, which beautifully examine the gray area between religious ideologies. (Andi Miller)
Maus by Art Spiegelman
Even though Maus is considered by a lot of people in the graphic novel know as canon, so many people haven’t actually read the two-part allegorical comic. Portraying the Holocaust with the use of mice as Jews and cats as Nazis, Spiegelman imparts so much history and emotional depth into this black-and-white comic. It’s to be expected with the subject matter, but Spiegelman’s story is at its core the story of a son coming to terms with his father’s horrific history and the fate of millions of his Jewish brethren. It is an incredible artistic and narrative triumph of comics creation, that will force you to confront the realities of the Holocaust anew, no matter how much you already know about it. It’s not an easy read, but it’s an essential one. (Rachel Manwill)

3 Incredible Destinations in India and How to Visit Them All in One Trip
This is a guest post by Ela from QuestOrganizer.com
India is on a bucket list of many travelers. Are you one of them?
Before you plan your escapade to this country make sure you go there in the right season. India has 4 seasons: winter, summer, monsoon and post-monsoon. The best time to visit is between late October and mid-March to skip the monsoon season during which it rains heavily in many regions in India almost every day.
Once you got the season covered, it’s time to decide which part of this big country you want to visit. That’s not an easy choice – India is very diverse and full of beautiful places. It’s definitely worth to visit several cities to get the full taste for it.
If it seems like planning a trip to several places in India is too difficult you can try the multi-destination flight organizer. Here’s an example trip that could be an inspiration for you.
Multi city flight from London to Mumbai, Goa and Chennai

With this trip you can visit some of the best places in India:
Mumbai
The city was originally formed from seven islands and grew to be the second most populous city in India. Although this metropolis can feel chaotic and crowded, many incredible places can be visited in the city and surrounding area. For instance, you can visit Film City and experience Bollywood movie shooting. If you like cricket you can easily find company to play it on the beach or street – it is a national sport in India and very popular in Mumbai. There are also some great places to visit in the area:
Babu Amichand Panalal Adishwarji Jain Temple
This Jain temple is renowned for its spectacular beauty. The entrance is artistically sculptured and it has two stone elephants statues on both the sides of the main gate. The temple is full of colorful paintings and decorative elements. The Jain Community is well known as a peace-loving one. They avoid violence and make sure not to kill any creature, even an insect.

Global Vipassana Pagoda
This Meditation Hall serves as a monument of peace and harmony. It was built out of gratitude to the Buddha and community of monks practicing his teaching. Its design is based on traditional Burmese design and it contains the world’s largest stone dome built without any supporting pillars. The Pagoda dome contains relics of Buddha, there’s also meditation centre and museum depicting his life.
Goa
Many travelers head to Goa for its splendid beaches, places of worship and architecture. Goa is known by the laid-back atmosphere, but there’s far more to discover than white sand beaches. It has rich flora and fauna and is classified as a biodiversity hotspot. It’s history is interesting as well. Goa was conquered by Portuguese in 1510 and it stayed within their territory until it was annexed by India in 1961. Old Goa is the historic part well worth visiting. It reveals the influence of the Portuguese who occupied this part of India for about 450 years. Here, you can visit Basilica of Bom Jesus which is a great example of baroque architecture combined with simplicity.

Chennai
Chennai is the fourth largest city in India, it has its own unique character and a rich tradition along with modern amenities and technology. This picturesque city includes beautifully carved temples, serene beaches, colonial monuments and much more. Apart of the city itself there are numerous attractions in the area which would make your stay in Chennai even more memorable.
Kapaleeshwar Temple in Mylapore
This ancient temple was once submerged under the sea… Inside you’ll find many Sannidhis dedicated to various gods. The presiding deity of this temple is a form of Shiva called Kapaleeshwarar. According to the legend Lord Shiva have cut off one of the heads of Brahma (god of creation). In penance, Brahma installed a temple in this place.
Thousands of visitors go to the temple for the Mylapore Festival in March. They participate in the 10-day festivity during which the bronze statues are carried on large platforms in a colourful procession through the streets of Mylapore. A lot of people engage in drawing various designs on the streets with white kolam powder. This festival has become a part of the local community life.
Hope this will help you plan an incredible trip to India! Remember, visiting more destination gives more experiences and knowledge about this fascinating country.
