The constitution of India In 2009, India’s Election Commission took the first step by allowing transgender to choose their gender as “other” on ballot forms. The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) is a significant initiative of the 11th Five Year Plan period, which brought employment opportunities for transgender people. The constitution of India has given equal rights like other citizens and ensures that they should not be discriminated against on the ground of gender as it can violate Article 14,15,16 and 21. The court also gives one’s gender expression protection under Article 19(1) (a), and no one shall restrict personal appearance or choice of dressing under Article 19(2). Article 7(1) of Transgender Persons Act -2014 has given the right to live in the community with choices equal to others. Again, in section 11(1), it is ensured that no transgender child should separate from his or her parents based on his gender except on order of court and interest of the child. The section 11(2), it stated family unable to care transgender child, the court shall try to…
executive employees and features of the nonqualified deferred compensation plans The topics mainly give an understanding of the executive employees as well as the features of the nonqualified deferred compensation plans. They also explain the examples of the NODC plans for the executives’ retirement, the mechanisms for funding the NGOC plans, and the separation agreement for the executives. The establishment of benefits and compensation for the executives calls for knowledge of more principles and practices (Copeland p.65). Under normal circumstances, they do not apply to nonexecutive employees. This issue of compensation for executives has recently drawn a lot of attention in the media since the compensation for the executives’ increases even as the company’s profits are declining. This paper will, therefore, discuss the key employees distinguishing between the executives and nonemployees based on their regulations and also the highly compensated employees. The main reason why they are paid higher is that they play a vital role in the management of the organization. Key employees also help in making better decisions for the success of the organization, and that is the…

Struggling with the Pandemic Nobody knew that the freedom of free interaction could disappear as quickly as the melting of waxes. When convoys of army trucks ferrying bodies of dead people were seen in some countries, the governments’ importunity to have people circumscribed started making sense. The social distancing rules have come as an eye-opener that worldly belongings could prove to be vanity. Besides, rich people are witnessing their money sepulcher in banks and houses without anywhere to spend it. Journalists have importuned government officials who have appeared to be prodigal even in times of crisis as they seek to seek popularity. The failure to adhere to governments’ precepts has been censured, and the people offenders regarded to as libertine as they continue to put their lives as well of others in danger. Everyone wishes the current epidemic away so that the world can resume normalcy as people look forward to flourish after several months of lockdown. Besides, not everyone enjoys staying locked in their houses and the only friend in sight is a cup of wassail. The epidemic caught everyone unawares, and those who had planned to marry have been forced to postpone their parties or choose to do them behind closed doors. Moreover,…
Capital Budgeting – definition of the term The process of capital budgeting is used by business organizations for determining the investment projects that can be taken over and the ones that will be rejected. It is associated with the purchase of any new assets or undertaking any new business projects. For instance, the purchase of a piece of land or construction of a new production unit in a particular site requires performing capital budgeting so that it can be ascertained if such projects can be approved or not. This process helps in reflecting a quantitative analysis for all the identified projects in a portfolio and gives a rational base to different companies in making judgments for the acceptance of various projects. In this process, any company can identify cash inflows along with cash outflows of the potential projects. For this, the process is also known as investment appraisal. Moreover, with this project, each of the projects in a portfolio is ranked according to the probable returns from them, which helps the management in choosing the plan that can be taken…

Marijuana legalization-California proposition 64 Introduction California proposition 64 seeks to reform the realistic approach to the marijuana policy in California. This has been sparked by the heated up debates that have increased in the last two decades over marijuana legalization in the U.S states. The major concern is a review on the laws of licencing of stores to sell cannabis to people above 21 years of age. This has been a testament of the Coloradoans and the ability to work together with the people (Anderson, Hansen & Rees, 2015). However, Hickenlooper has praised all the opposing sides for holding on the facts that he believes have increased the legalisation roll out. In the union of the U.S states, California was the first state to pass laws allowing legal consumption of marijuana. This was first witnessed in the proposition 215 in 1996. Two decades down the line, the legalization of marijuana has sparked various debates that are aimed at reviewing the poorly regulated system of marijuana cultivation. The California proposition 64 is based on the pros and cons. According to the…
