Origin of the word "Jugaad"

Jugaad , recorded as "  जुगाड़ " , in the native variant of Hindi around the regions of Western UP and in the Haryanavi dialect , from the proper Hindi word   Jugat , "  जुगत". Jugat , in turn , in an improper word for it's parent Sanskrit word Yukt ,  युक्त .  Yukt has two meanings in its original Sanskrit form . It means a carefully planned, schemed, arrangement to achieve an objective. Towards this meaning, the usages are like,  " कुछ युक्ति लगानी होगी /  " (meaning, we will have to apply some brain , some scheme to achieve this objective ). In this context , the most common of the scheme that would be adopted would be the team-work, the co-operation of everyone's body and mind to resolve the crisis situation.       The other meaning of Yukt comes in the form of a suffix, wherein it mean "laden of", or, "involved with".

The problem with India Against Corruption (www.indiaagainstcorruption.org)

So, It's happening in the same manner in which it should be envisaged by a low IQ nation as India. The crusade of India Against Corruption   has turned into a personal war between Five-off-Five!  The one batch of five being that from the government and the another five from another organisation calling themselves 'India against corruption' working under the umbrella of an organisation called Civil Society group.

U see, first they put the blame on Sharad Pawar, and now the blame is on Shashi Bhushan, who is trying to prove that he is not dishonest. And slowly the crusade is hijacked away into a personal battle to prove whether person X is honest or not.!!?

When the Ship’s Gangway couldn’t reach the jetty

On tankers, during the SIRE 1.0 regime (in the days when I was sailing): There was a debate around who should bear the responsibility for providing safe access—the ship or the terminal? Earlier, the laws regulated that the responsibility was on the ships. But SIRE laid down that ships should carry a gangway of 10 mtrs, while it remained doubtful whether this was the maximum or the minimum prescribed! So, it once happened in New York, USA, that my ship had only a 10-mtr gangway, which couldn't reach the terminal (Bayonne Terminal, just close to the Statue of Liberty). As an alternative, the basket had to be used. But the baskets were forbidden for use—at least by the Indian administration; the reasons were then not known exactly. Our owners were Japanese. I complained to the owners through the Master about the use of the basket. The Japanese owners—the master shipbuilders they are, renowned all over for their shipbuilding yards of great quality—accepted my plea. I had submitted a ha...
