    Indian English poetry has produced a number of literary movements; Aurobindonean School of Poetry, Ezekielen School of Poetry, Confessional School of Poetry, Subaltern School of Poetry and, above all, the Phrasal Movement for the spiritual whirlwind for Tom, Dick and Harry in general and the versifiers in particular in spite of the materialistic monarchy infecting the society. The Phrasal Movement in Indian English Poetry that runs wild from alpha and omega of the verses of the poet Arbind Kumar Choudhary speaks volumes about his gigantic poetic personality in and outside India

    Orbital measures on SU(2)/SO(2)

    We let U=SU(2) and K=SO(2) and denote N_{U}(K) the normalizer of K in U. For a an element of U\ N_{U} (K), we let \mu_{a} be the normalized singular measure supported in KaK. For p a positive integer, it was proved that \mu_{a}^{( p)}, the convolution of p copies of \mu_{a}, is absolutely continuous with respect to the Haar measure of the group U as soon as p>=2. The aim of this paper is to go a step further by proving the following two results : (i) for every a in U\ N_{U} (K) and every integer p >=3, the Radon-Nikodym derivative of \mu_{a}^{(p)} with respect to the Haar measure m_{U} on U, namely d\mu_{a}^{(p)}/d m_{U}, is in L^{2}(U), and (ii) there exist a in U\ N_{U} (K) for which d\mu_{a}^{(2)}/ dm_{U} is not in L^{2}(U), hence a counter example to the dichotomy conjecture. Since L^{2} (G) \subseteq L^{1} (G), our result gives in particular a new proof of the result when p>2

    An unprecedented pandemic of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID 19) has overwhelmed the health systems of countries across the world. The government and other scientific bodies are providing authentic information to educate the public and promote desirable behavior to prevent new infections and reduce deaths.  COVID-19 pandemic is the first in human history in which social media and new digital technologies are being used as key tools to inform the public. However, there is a lot of misinformation also being spread through these channels. Misinformation is false, inaccurate, or misleading information that is communicated regardless of an intention to deceive. Access to social media has improved substantially, which has contributed to spread of misinformation. Today, anybody can write anything on social media such as Twitter, WhatsApp, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube etc without any evidence or falsely attribute the wrong information to well-known experts or renowned institutions. They may be doing it to support their own biases or malign the government purposefully or innocently without checking authenticity. The number of mentions in media for Ebola were 11.1 million, for MERS, 23.2 million, HIV, 40 million, SARS, 56.2 million and COVID19 it has crossed 1.1 billion.3. A google search for COVID 19 on 08 June 2021 gave 5340 million hits compared to 216 million for a much older disease HIV/AIDS. This editorial is an attempt to help spot the false information and deal with it
