They are widely considered the most influential singers in India. Their voice touched at least a billion hearts. Their final departure was a great loss to India. LATA MANGESHKAR – A Tribute Born: 28.09.1929 | Died: 06.02.2022 Lata Mangeshkar, also known as the ‘Nightingale of India’, was one of the most versatile singers in the Indian film industry. Lata was born on September 28, 1929, to classical singer and theatre artist Pandit Deenanath Mangeshkar and Shevanti in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. Her father started teaching her music at an early age. By the time she was five, Lata was seen participating as an actress in plays written by her father. Her siblings – Meena, Asha, Usha, and Hridaynath – are all accomplished singers and musicians. In a career spanning nearly eight decades, Lata Mangeshkar was the singing voice for a bevy of Bollywood leading ladies. She lent her voice to over 5,000 songs in over a thousand Hindi and 36 regional films. She had an unprecedented impact on Indian film music. Since 1942, Lata pushed back the boundaries of music with her mind-boggling skills. Over the years, Lata had sung for actresses from Madhubala to Priyanka Chopra. Best known for her versatile voice quality, she recorded albums of all kinds (ghazals, pop, etc). Take a look at Lata Mangeshkar’s musical journey – A Tribute to legendary singers of India In 1942, her father’s untimely death put the onus of providing for the family on her shoulders. Pandit Deenanath’s friend Master Vinayak took care of the Mangeshkar family and offered her a role in the film Badi Maa. In 1949, she moved to Bombay (now Mumbai), where she began learning Hindustani music from Ustad Aman Ali Khan. Lata had worked with several legendary music directors including Madan Mohan, R D Burman, the duo Laxmikant-Pyarelal and A R Rahman. Although, She teamed up with Madan Mohan for the 1960s like Aap Ki Nazron Ne Samjha from Anpadh, Lag Jaa Gale, and Naina Barse Rim Jhim from Woh Kaun Thi?. Lata had sung over 700 songs for Laxmikant-Pyarelal, which include Mere Naseeb Mein from Naseeb and Sheesha Ho Ya Dil Ho from Asha. Songs like Gata Rahe Mera Dil and Piya Tose in Guide (1965) were recorded for S D Burman. Lata sang R D Burman’s first and last songs – in Chote Nawaab (1961) and Kuch Na Kaho in 1942: A Love Story in 1994. Her collaborations with A R Rahman resulted in popular songs like Luka Chupi in Rang de Basanti (2006) and O Paalanhaare in the movie, Lagaan (2001). From Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya from Mughal-e-Azam (1960) to Ajeeb Dastaan Hai Yeh, from Dil Apna Aur Preet Parai (1960) to Rangeela Re from Prem Pujari (1970) or even Jiya Jale in Dil Se, the singer had lent her voice to a number of timeless classics over the years. In 2012, Lata Mangeshkar launched her own music label called LM Music. Her most recent release (March 2019) was the song Saugandh Mujhe Is Mitti Ki, composed by Mayuresh Pai, which is a tribute to the Indian army and India. Awards and recognitions Lata Mangeshkar received several awards and accolades during her eight-decade-long career. In 1974, she became the first Indian to perform at the Royal Albert Hall. She is the recipient of three National Film Awards, 15 Bengal Film Journalists’ Association Awards, four Filmfare Best Female Playback Awards, two Filmfare Special Awards, Filmfare Lifetime Achievement Awards, and many more. Moreover, Lata Mangeshkarji was bestowed with the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 1989. In 2001, she was also awarded the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian honor. Nevertheless, The government of France conferred on her its highest civilian award (Officer of the Legion of Honour) in 2007. Along with these, Lata Mangeshkar held the distinction of being the most recorded artist in the history of Indian music in Guinness Record in 1974. Therefore, The Indian government honored her with the Daughter of the Nation award on her 90th birthday in September 2019. The book entitled “Lata Mangeshkar: A Musical Journey” contains little-known facts intertwined with the story of her life in music. Moreover, about her struggles, successes, and her reign as the Queen of Hindi music from the 1940s to the present day. On November 11, 2019, Lata Mangeshkar was admitted to the Breach Candy Hospital, in South Mumbai after she complained of difficulty in breathing.

Psychosocial impact of covid-19
Psychosocial impact of covid-19 and some legal mechanisms in India One of the Top Competitive Institute in West Bengal, MIES Institute, puts an informative article on the psychosocial impact of covid-19 and some legal mechanisms in India written by on the top faculty Ms. Anupa Dey of MIES R. M. Law College under MIES Institute, Top most Coaching Centre for different Govt. Job exam preparation, which will enhance and aware more to mankind. MIES Institute is one of the Best Institute for WBCS exam in West Bengal, Head Office at Sonarpur, Main City Centre – Sealdah. Branches – Barasat, Behala Chowrasta, Howrah Maidan, Konnagar, Chinsurah, and Buniadpur. ——————————————————————————————————————— ABSTRACT ——————————————————————————————————————— 1.1 Introduction to Psychosocial impact of covid-19 The covid-19 virus gets its name from the word corona which means ‘Crown’ in Latin. Coronavirus has a series of crown-like spikes on its surface. The virus has been named novel as it has not been identified previously. The outbreak of the coronavirus started from Wuhan, the capital of China’s Hubei Province in December 2019 and has now spread across the globe. Although, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020, and a Pandemic on 11 March 2020. When Covid-19 was limited to Wuhan, China, it was an epidemic. The geographical spread turned it into a pandemic. Common signs of Covid-19 disease include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath, etc. In severe cases, it can cause pneumonia, SARS, Kidney failure, and even death. The pandemic, along with the obvious health-related impact, The pandemic, along with the obvious health-related impact, also poses a serious threat to the psychological wellbeing of individuals and has resulted in significant behavioral changes. The enormity of living in isolation, changes in our daily lives, job loss, financial hardship. And moreover, grief over the death of loved ones has the potential to affect the mental health and wellbeing of many. Covid-19 carries significant psychosocial and mental health hazards. As the mortality and morbidity statistics are reaching new peaks every day, isolation and lockdown states are getting prolonged, recreational opportunities for people are lessened and the financial crisis is building in, mental health issues are likely to grow exponentially. Therefore, there is a need to understand the psychosocial and behavioral perspectives of Covid-19 and delineate possible measures to cope with the pandemic for its effective management. Social Capital against Pandemic Growing Evidence suggests that outbreaks such as the Covid-19 pandemic are better handled in places where Social Capital is high. However, there are very few clear channels through which social capital makes communities better and able to respond to the outbreak. Social capital exists in different forms including trust, norms, and social networks. Social Capital is a “conceptual umbrella covering several more well-defined forms, such as networks, group memberships, civic and political participation as well as subjective aspects such as confidence in institutions and trust in people”. The Indian Constitution provides a distinct legal space to social capital through its Article 19(1) (c) on the right to form associations or unions and Article 43 which talks about States making endeavors to promote co-operatives in rural areas. However, it is seen that some people don’t value their lives, their family’s lives, keep aside the nation and roam around freely. There is an urgent need to educate the Indians of the seriousness of the situation, and the best way is to make them aware of the laws related to COVID-19 and let them know the consequences they can face for breaking the rules of the lockdown. Here are a few laws related to Covid-19 that should be known to all citizens of India. Under the Chapter of Indian Penal Code which deals with the Offences affecting the Public health, safety, convenience, decency and morals Sections [269-271] and Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code deals with Disobedience to order duly promulgated by Public Servant. Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code imposes power on the Executive Magistrate to restrict a particular or a group of persons residing in a particular area while visiting a certain place or area. The most important preventive measure against Covid-19 is safeguarded by this section that restricts to a gathering of people and thus in a way supports social distancing. The Epidemic Disease Act, 1897, and The Disaster Management Act, 2005 provide the provisions and take measures, regulations for stopping the spread of infectious diseases. Apart from these provisions, the Central Government has made some regulations which are necessary for the prevention of spreading of these diseases. While there is a list of laws related to Covid-19 we as responsible citizens need to realize that these laws are made for our betterment only and if we realize the seriousness of the ongoing crisis there would be no need to implement strict laws against the defaulters. 1.2 Objective and Purpose of the Study The present literature-based Research-Paper is being worked out: To understand the psychosocial and behavioural perspective of Covid-19 To analyze the psychosocial impact of Covid-19 on different strata of society Moreover, to promote Social Capital for the people’s physical activity and health status during the pandemic To aware the people of the Legal provisions which is related to Covid-19 and follow the provisions in a strict way 1.3 Significance of the Study This study is an attempt to map the issue of the psychosocial impact of Covid-19 on the population, mostly children, old persons, college students, and health professionals. The study has the focus on Social Capital which exists in different forms including trust, norms, and social networks. Moreover, the aim of this research is to give a thumbnail sketch of Legal Provisions relating to Covid-19 disease which will prevent the spreading of this very disease. This present work is unique amidst existing literature, which provides a panoramic survey of the psychosocial and behavioral aspects of Covid-19. Therefore, the Constitutional provisions and Indian laws are available against the spreading of this very disease. It is based on
