RESOLVING THE POLITICAL DEADLOCK OF DEPRESSED CLASSES IN COLONIAL INDIA

Shriram S. Nikam

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3073 - 3076

 The militant nationalist movement has ultimately been stabilized into the generation of democratic institutions earlier in 20th century in colonial India. This has accelerated the process of politicizing the castes in a tradition bound caste ridden feudal society as a way for sharing the political power. The untouchable castes who were condemned to the lowest rung of Hindu society started political awakening asking for political representation for their elevation. The principle of separate electorates for representing various sects of society was already introduced by the government. The same demand in different forms was forwarded by the untouchables. Gandhiji opposed any form of representation for untouchables as they are being an integral part and parcel of Hindu society and assumed the problem as social within the Hindu fold to be resolved by the sincere efforts of social reformists. Dr. Ambedkar lost all his faith in reforms and followed the path of materialism by asking political reservation for the untouchables. The struggle between the two leaders over the problem has ultimately been set right in the form of Poona Pact which recognized the principle of reservation of seats in general constituencies which forwarded in the independent constitution of India.

Pramod Kumar Naik, Mr. Atindra Nath Dutta & Mrs. Mamta Kumari

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3141 - 3150

 In an individual’s life adolescence is that period which begins at the end of childhood and ends at the beginning of adulthood. The adolescence is neither a child nor an adult. This fact is often omitted by the teachers and parents. From a theoretical stand point adolescence is the best regarded as a recapitulation of the period of life. It is a second turn on the spiral of development. In this period the child again becomes unstable. His physical and mental adjustment is shaken and he at times behaves like an infant to adopt himself to his environment. At this time, the parents’ role is very important. They should understand and guide their child. Perception is necessary thing for the adolescents. But over possessiveness is not good. Ay affect Negatively. So, here the researchers chose the area of research as study of Guidance need on different dimensions of children’s perception of parenting. Here the researchers selected 100 secondary school students as sample who are at adolescent age. The researchers used two tools for data collection which were Children\'s perception of parenting scale (CPPS) developed by AnandPyari, Raj KumariKalra andPoonamVasin.Guidance Needs Inventory (GNI) developed by Dr. J.S. Grewal. After analyzing the data the researchers found that there was influence of guidance need on children’s perception of parenting.

SEVERITY OF PERSISTENCE AND TOXICITY OF HEXACHLOROCYCLOHEXANE (HCH) TO THE ENVIRONMENT- A CURRENT APPROACH

Sanhita Padhi & Bandita Pati

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3158 - 3168

Though the use of Organochlorine pesticides significantly develops the economic status of many developing countries by increasing the crop yield and preventing the vector-borne diseases, but it becomes a serious threat to our environment increasing serious health problems. The persistence of Organochlorine pesticide, Hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) and its isomers are toxic and cause hepatotoxic, immune-toxic, reproductive, and developmental effects. These become persistent in the soil and environment for a longer period due to their recalcitrant properties and their slow bioconversion into inorganic compounds. Hence, these are biomagnified into the tropic level and cause acute and chronic health problems. Though the use of HCH is banned in developed countries still several developing countries are using lindane (HCH) in domestic and agriculture purposes including India. Different abiotic factors like moisture, pH and Eh, temperature, organic matters affect the persistence of HCH.

EFFECT OF ENZYMATIC BLEACHING ON PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF HEMP FABRIC

Nishad Pratima & Madhan Ritu

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3169 - 3176

Being an eco-friendly fiber, the use of hemp as a commercial textile fiber will be very beneficial. Therefore, the study was undertaken on the bleaching process of hemp fabric. The study observed the effect of chemical reagents as well as combinations of enzymes with chemicals on hemp fabric.  The chemicals used were Hydrogen peroxide, Sodium hypochlorite, and Sodium hydroxide and six different combinations of chemical reagents and laccase enzyme (6 combinations i.e. Laccase + Hydrogen peroxide, Laccase + Sodium hypochlorite, Laccase + Sodium hydroxide, Hydrogen peroxide + Laccase, Sodium hypochlorite + Laccase, and Sodium hydroxide + Laccase) were used.  The procured hemp fabric was tested for eleven physical parameters before and after processing.  The hemp fabric bleached using chemical reagents only showed slight yellowing; hence these fabric samples were not used for further testing.  The samples of chemical and enzyme combinations were used for further testing.  Bleaching effect of all the samples was noted using spectrophotometer readings.  The results showed that the readings of physical properties for fabric count, yarn crimp, yarn twist, thickness, weight per square meter, dimensional stability/shrinkage, crease/wrinkle resistance, tensile strength and tearing strength has increased after the treatment. There was very little change observed in the results of yarn count. The abrasion and pilling was reduced after the treatment. Among the bleached samples the highest whiteness was achieved with only laccase enzyme treated sample.

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3199 - 3208

Development indicates the advancement of social and economic environment of any region. In fact, proper development occurs only when managing the balance between natural and human resources. It improves the livelihood quality of people. The present paper focuses on pattern of level of development and factors behind disparity regarding development in different blocks of Malda district where the backbone of economy is based on agriculture and it ranks as one of the most underdeveloped district in West Bengal. The population is mainly rural and blocks lag behind in terms of low level of literacy, work participation, medical facilities and other civic amenities. In this paper, index of development in respect of socio-economic status has been worked out after Kendall’s method. As a result, an imbalanced development takes place in the blocks and creates inter-block disparities related to social and economic conditions.

Keywords: development, disparity, socio-economic status, factors

MANAGEMENT OF MANURES AND FERTILIZERS FOR BETELVINE CULTIVATION

Bharat V. Patil

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3213 - 3220

In the present study attempt was made to understand the application of manures and fertilizers for betelvine cultivation in the selected area of Sangli district. The role of manures and fertilizers in betelvine cultivation plays a vital role. Production of quality chewable pan depends on the appropriate application of manures and fertilizers.  The Sangli district has varieties of soils on account of its geographical situation. The Shirala tahsil which has literate soil mixed with hard murum. The parts of Miraj, Walva and Palus tahsils are endowed with deep black, soil and form a fertile agricultural productivity track due to the boon of river Krishna. Atpadi and Kadegaon tahsils covered with poor soil which has no suitability of growing betelvine as assured crop. Sangli district was well-known in growing betelvine due to the hereditary skill and knack. Cultivators employed experienced labour force to exercise culture for the better yield. Different parts of Sangli district grew betelvine.  However, cultivators in Sangli district were too much enthusiastic in obtaining, maintaining and retaining originality of growing betelvine leaves. Maintenance of soil quality, humidity in the betelvine garden, proper irrigation and application of manures and fertilizers affect on the yield of betel leaves. Quality leaves fetch attractive earnings to the cultivators. While using manures and fertilizers to the betelvine proper care is taken. Application of excess fertilizers badly affect on the growth of betelvine. Manures and fertilizers required to apply at the appropriate time.

Key Words: Manures and Fertilizers, Chewable pan, suitability of growing betelvine and fertility of soil

SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF AGEING POPULATION IN PUNJAB

Ram Sharn

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3233 - 3240

\"\"Studying ageing population has traditionally been the domain of gerontologists. Consequently, most of research on ageing population has centered on health related issues and policy. In this research work we are fundamentally concerned with the geographical dimensions of aging population. The spatial pattern of ageing is based on crude birth rate, total fertility rate and life expectancy and migration processes. As life expectancy grows and fertility rates decline, senior citizens will make up an ever-larger share of the total population. The effect of this demographic shift will be staggering. ‘It will come with a whopping price tag, which will place a massive burden on an ever smaller working- age population’ (Peterson, 1999). It focuses on population ageing, exploring where and why of spatial pattern of ageing population. The approach of analysing spatial trends in one particular age group is adopted in this study as it provides a useful and relevant platform for negotiating the broader theoretical and methodological debate in human geography.

CIVIL SOCIETY-ITS ROLE IN GOOD GOVERNANCE: PARTICIPATION, ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY

Ashwini Roy A.S

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3241 - 3248

 For over two decades now, the process of globalization has been influencing the socio-economic environment in countries. While globalization provides new opportunities for economic development to countries through trade liberalization, foreign direct investment, capital flows, information exchange and technological transfer, it has meant increased deprivation for those nations which have been unable to adjust to the new requirement of global society. Thus on one hand while we witness rapid economic growth and prosperity in some regions, there are more than a billion people who continue to live in poverty with purchasing power of less than a dollar a day. In the poorest countries, about one fifth of the children die in the first year of their birth, nearly half of those who survive fare malnourished and a significant proportion of the population does not have access to clear water, sanitation, basic health services and education. This paper identifies the significance of Civil Society, impediments to the growth of civil society in developing countries and its role in good governance.

ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION AND LAW: A RIGHT FOR ALL

Paromita Das

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3298 - 3303

 \"\"

Environmental issues are a growing concern in today’s world. All the countries, including       India, are facing excessive environmental degradation. There are so many policies and laws but no one cares to follow them until the question of punishment comes. One’s life is very much related to the environment. What causes environmental degradation, pollution, diseases and stress are to be known and understood and the remedial measures to be applied in local conditions starting from our own homes. If we become aware our duty is to make the people around aware of it for the sustainable development. Everyone will surely want their future generations to dwell in a healthy and peaceful environment with the fulfilment of all the basic necessities of life. The time has come to know all our rights and responsibilities and this can be achieved both  informally, non-formally and formally through the education system. Environmental Education has been a core paper at the school and college levels but we need to be more specific about the laws in this paper, how much they are being implemented and what changes can be brought in the curriculum. The present paper is an attempt to make people realise the need for a common discipline in any course of study as well as an individual course of study itself which shall include not only the education part but also the study of laws. This will not only help students to gain academically but also know their rights and responsibilities. This course of study in itself should be a right for all.   

Keywords:  issues, degradation, sustainable, curriculum, responsibilities.

A STUDY OF MENTAL HEALTH IN RELATION TO SPIRITUALITY AMONG ADOLESCENTS

Mrs. K. Govind & D. Amalor

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3304 - 3312

 In the present age of science and technology science and spirituality are considered to be two distinct entities. When science is materialistic in its attempt, spirituality lacks materialism. It is noteworthy that the more the wonder when the science does the less importance is given to age old spirituality. Is spirituality really a trivial one? And does it not help us to achieve  mental peace and harmony? are the research questions. Hence an attempt was made in the present study to find out the relationship between mental health, a state of psychological well being and spirituality. A random sample of 119 students studying senior secondary course in three higher secondary schools in Puducherry was drawn. The mean age of the students was 16 years. Mental health questionnaire developed by Sharma (2002) was used to assess the level of mental health and Spiritual Index Scale (SIS) developed by Mahendran (2012) was used to measure the level of spirituality. Correlation analysis was employed to find out the association between mental health and spirituality. The results showed evidence that spirituality is associated with mental health.  Demographic variables such as gender, residence (rural/urban) and type of school were included in the study. The impact of demographic variables on spirituality was tested through t-test.
Key words: mental health, spirituality, gender, residence, school environment

Throughout the literature, varying interpretations of what this developmental stage actually encompasses are still being debated. However, these impending career changes/transitions for adults are often met with a host of psychological, emotional, cultural, and physical changes that can occur during this process. According to Levinson (1996), middle adulthood/midlife is defined as “the period of life from ages 40-65”.

SOCIAL BACKGROUND OF INDIAN NATIONALISM

Shriram S. Nikam

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3341 - 3344

 The degraded and dehumanized Hindu Society was mobilized towards modernity as the alien rule obliged it to do so. The modern values of democracy provided the avenues to Indian elites to make rational enquiry into their own social system for rebuilding their nation. The concept of nationalism includes three aspects of human life-social, political and economical. The initial stage dominated by social nationalism. The extremists enlarged the scope of political nationalism at the cost of social nationalism. The 20th century debate over the problem was multidimensional-secular nationalism of Gandhiji, Hindu nationalism and the nationalism based on social political and economic justice of Ambedkar. The debate over the issue of nationalism has been covered in this research article.

GANDHIJI’S PERCEPTION OF LIBERATING THE UNTOUCHABLES

Shriram S. Nikam

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 3345 - 3348

 In a tradition bound society men do not readily digest the manipulating change as the modern values and institutions offer. The deliberate intervention of modernity by the alien rule for its own sake in the country had not been welcomed by the natives. As such a leader of Indian National Congress Gandhiji had to dilute the earlier dichotomies such as social V/s political reforms and secularism V/s religion so as to organize united front of divergent social interests mobilizing them against the colonial rule. Hence Gandhiji would not follow the line of rationality with regard to the social justice offered by modern values; instead he would follow the line of liberal religious idiom instead of strictly secular to resolve the problem of untouchables by avoiding the path of struggle to be undertaken by them for their own emancipation.

Randhir Singh

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4340 - 4344


School education system has developed considerably across the years as a result of new, improvised policies and programmes for better accessibility and quality of school education. This has enhanced the need of improvised infrastructure and skilled manpower to cater to the needs of the diverse student population in the classroom. The teacher education system, though is developing, yet has failed to take a quantum leap to match the demand of the quality teachers that has risen in the recent past. In this context, the paper aims to highlight the need for revitalising the teacher education system in the country in order to make the policies for improved school education a success.

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4341 - 4353

 Aggressive Behaviour is a major concern in most contemporary societies because it may inflict damage and harmful to self or others and constitute a serious threat to the wellbeing of the community at large. The present study was an endeavour to find out the relationship between aggression and family environment of secondary school students. The present study comprises of 320 adolescent students, taken randomly from the schools urban and rural areas of District Moga of Punjab. Aggression Scale by Dr. G. P. Mathur and Dr. Rajkumari Bhatnagar (2012) and Family Environment Scale by Dr. Harpreet Bhatia and Dr. N. K. Chadha (2012) were applied to collect the data. The obtained results depicted average aggression level among secondary school students. 25% of secondary school students show high aggression, 64% students show average aggression and 11% students show low aggression. There exists a significant difference between government and private secondary school students in Aggression. A positive correlation was found between aggression and most of the dimensions of family environment.
Keywords: Aggressive Behaviour, Family Environment, Secondary School Students.

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4354 - 4361

In the ever changing and over evolving reality of life, the status of women all over the world and particularly in Indian continent has undergone rapid and phenomenal changes. In all the cities and villages of India, the women today are breaking the social, psychological barrier and are assuming new responsibilities.The dynamics of the work environment have exerted enormous pressure on working women. The aim of this study was to examine the work-family conflict of married female trained graduate teachers in relation to family-related variables. The study was descriptive type in nature. The Work-Family Conflict Scale (Attri & Neelam, 2016) and Family Support Scale (House& Wells, 1978) were used to collect the required data from a sample of 480 married female trained graduate teachers of himachal. Further, data were analyzed through t-test. A significant difference was found in work-family conflict of married female trained graduate teachers with respect to their family income and spouse occupational status, whereas no significant difference was found in work-family conflict of married female trained graduate teachers with respect to their family support. Married female trained graduate teachers having low family income has more work-family conflict than that of married female trained graduate teachers of low family income group. Further, it has been observed that married female trained graduate teachers whose spouse are non-government employee have high level of work-family conflict as compared to their counterpart married female trained graduate teachers whose spouse are government employee.No significant difference was found on work-family conflict of married female trained graduate teachers in relation to family support.

Present generation of students seems to be under tremendous pressure to perform. Parental expectations and unrealistically setting up of high goals by the students causes stress and because of this stress, students suffer from various psychological and physical disorders. Teachers also contributes significantly  for this stress, showing good academic achievement, high marks, earn positions in the class places students under tremendous pressure. Drastic change in our present evaluation system is the need of the hour. Application of grading system and making board examination optional are some of the steps taken by CBSE to reduce stress. The present paper is an attempt to suggest some techniques keeping in mind the various cognitive theory of motivation to make education stress free.

Peace is a state of well-being that is characterized by non-violence, trust, compassion and justice. Peace encouraged us to explore as well as celebrate our diversity without fear of violence and personal pain. Commonly it can be understood as the absence of hostility and retribution, existence of healthy interpersonal or intrapersonal relationships, social or economical prosperity and establishment of equality where a working political system serves the true interests of all. In the present paper author have discussed about role of education in general and teacher education in particular for developing peace and harmony.

CULTURAL DIVERSITY IN THE WORKPLACE

Arpit Khurana

Cultural diversity simply means that people of many cultures (and often many countries) interact regularly. Global companies are the custodians of multiculturalism. Rarely these national companies have such diverse cultures. Domestic firms may also have employees of different nationalities. Taking example of Infosys where foreign employees constitute almost 9% of the total employed workforce. Local businesses multiculturalism can be by choice, but by design with multinational companies. A multinational company needs to maintain a unified culture that weaves all subsidiaries. Each subsidiary is becoming an independent unit if there is a unique culture.

 Drought is a period of drier-than normal conditions that lead to water related problems. It may be as an extended period - a season, a year or more - of deficient rainfall relative to the statistical multi-year average for a region. It is a normal and recurrent future of climate and may occur anywhere in the world, in all climate zones. Its features or characteristics vary from region to region. Different classifications of drought emphases physical aspect of drought, particularly in the context of agriculture and crop production, its impacts are widespread across several sectors. Drought and famines have a long history in India but the recent, the drought of 2002 was ranked fifth in terms of magnitude when examined in overall terms of magnitude, spacing, dispersion and duration. The 2002 monsoon was one of the shortest in recorded history. The total loss in rural employment due to shrinkage of agriculture operations during the drought months was estimated as 1,250 million man days. The impact of droughts on day to day human life in rural regions is many a time severe beyond imagination because; food availability becomes dismal. Many go hungry, and few have food in stock. Availability of drinking water becomes very poor. Distribution of water by tankers is neither available nor sufficient and equitable. The water needs of cattle are not sufficiently met. Women and children are the worst affected. Productive youths are compelled to migrate to earn livelihood and the children, women, old and sick members of the family are left behind in the drought affected village without water, food, care and security. Suicide cases in the Marathwada region of Maharashtra, and a number of cases of malnutrition and starvation might be taken as examples of the effects of drought. Education can play a significant role in drought management and research. Interdisciplinary subjects like Ecology, Capacity Development, Environment Science etc, which have the characteristics to accommodate the knowledge and skills of various natural, social and agricultural sciences and to promote specialization modules on drought management, should be widely encouraged. Need of the hour to save the future of mankind on Planet Earth is to conduct more and more researches on various aspects of disaster management including drought management, environment sustainability and education for sustainable development. At the same time it should be ensured that the result or finding must go from lab to land.]

 Prevalent separationalism, occasionalism, racism, violence, religious fanaticism and negligence of laymen by so called educated people show that our education has failed in achieving its goal of its inculcating human values among the students. National Policy of Education has also emphasized that the growing concern over erosion of essential values and an increasing cynicism in society has brought to force the need for adjustment in curriculum in order to make education a forceful tool of cultivation of social and moral values. For all round developments of student personality, the aims of education should be characterized under two heads- long term goals and short terms goals. Physical, mental and economic development etc. should be defined as the short term goals and social, moral and spiritual development as the long term goals of education. The long term goals should be given preponderance over short term goals, contrary our prevalent system in which short term goals seem preordering over long term goals]

A STUDY ON AD HOC NETWORKS FOR EFFICIENT MULTIPATH ROUTING SURVEY

Jadhav Hemantkumar Balasaheb & Piyush Pandey

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4476 - 4488

 Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) pose particular challenges in terms of Quality of Service (QoS) and performance. This is due to the effect of numerous parameters such as; bandwidth and power constrains, delays, security issues, etc. On the there hand, the degree of freedom enables the wireless mobile nodes to enter and leave the network dynamically. The latter offers redundant paths and dynamic coverage. Particular attention is given to the multipath transmission capability as well as load balancing to have efficient routing possible for heavy multimedia traffics. Multi-path routing represents a promising routing method for wireless mobile ad hoc networks. Multi-path routing achieves load balancing and is more resilient to route failures. Recently, numerous multi-path routing protocols have been proposed for wireless mobile ad hoc networks. The study provides an overview of eight dissimilar protocols by presenting their uniqueness and functionality, and then provides an association and discussion of their respective merits and drawbacks. In order to facilitate communication within the network, a routing protocol is used to discover routes between nodes. Route construction should be done with a minimum of overhead and bandwidth consumption.Multi-path routing achieves load balancing and is more resilient to route failures. Recently, numerous multi-path routing protocols have been proposed for wireless mobile ad hoc networks. Performance evaluations of these protocols showed that they achieve lower routing overhead, lower end-to-end delay and alleviate congestion in comparison with single path routing protocols. However, a quantitative comparison of multi-path routing protocols has not yet been conducted. In this work, we present the results of a detailed simulation study of three multi-path routing protocols (SMR, AOMDV and AODV Multipath). Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) consists of several wireless mobile nodes which dynamically exchange data among themselves without the reliance on a fixed base station or a wired backbone network. Due to the limited transmission power, multiple hops are usually needed for a node to exchange information with any other node in the network. So routing discovery and maintenance is crucial issues in MANET.
Keywords: AD HOC Networks, Multipath Routing,MANETs, Service, performance, load balancing, wireless, protocols, functionality, etc.

 The development in data mining technology brings serious threat to the individual information. The objective of privacy preserving data mining (PPDM) is to safeguard the sensitive information contained in the data. The unwanted disclosure of the sensitive information may happen during the process of data mining results. In this study we identify four different types of users involved in mining application i.e. data source provider, data receiver, data explorer and determiner decision maker.We differentiate each type of user’s responsibilities and privacy concerns with respect to sensitive information. We’d like to provide useful insights into the study of privacy preserving data mining. This paper presents a comprehensive noise addition technique for protecting individual privacy in a data set used for classification, while maintaining the data quality. We add noise to all attributes, both numerical and categorical, and both to class and non-class, in such a way so that the original patterns are preserved in a perturbed data set. Our technique is also capable of incorporating previously proposed noise addition techniques that maintain the statistical parameters of the data set, including correlations among attributes. Thus the perturbed data set may be used not only for classification but also for statistical analysis.
Keywords: Data Mining, Security, Issues & Remedies, Privacy, Preservation, development, technology, information, process, etc.

Kadam Sandeep Uddhavrao & Piyush Pandey

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4497 - 4501

 Today are utilizing the opportunities offered by recent advances in information and communications technologies (ICTs) as vital business tools than ever before. SMEs are adopting innovative business operations, user-friendly products and services, and customer centric strategies. Unfortunately, a myriad of challenges threaten the SMEs, especially the issues of confidentiality, integrity and availability (CIA) vulnerabilities, as those weaknesses are exploited by threat agents. Whenever they are attacked, SMEs are adversely affected by way of loss of revenues, loss of customer confidence, loss of investor confidence, loss of resources, loss of credibility, cost related to dealing with the security breaches, cost of mitigation as well as possible business closure, etc. SMEs were surveyed and strategically interviewed on various cyber-security and business metrics. The elicited experts’ opinions were used to model the risk function, using neuro-fuzzy techniques, that combines the human inference style and linguistic expressions of fuzzy systems with the learning and parallel processing capabilities of neural networks to analyze the cyber-security vulnerability assessment (CSVA) model.

A SOCIOLOGICAL STUDY OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT SOCIAL LEGISLATIONS AMONG RURAL WOMEN IN INDIA

Laxmi

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4636 - 4642

 

Indian society consists of people belonging to almost all kinds of religious beliefs. In every religion women are given a special place and every religion teaches us to treat women with respect and dignity. But somehow the society has so developed that various types of ill practices, both physical and mental, against women have become a norm since ages. For instance, sati pratha, practice of dowry, parda pratha, female infanticide, wife burning, sexual violence, sexual harassment at work place, domestic violence and other varied kinds of discriminatory practices; all such acts consists of physical as well as mental element. India is a complex country. We have developed various types of customs, traditions and practices, through centuries. These customs and traditions, good as well as bad, have become a part of our society’s collective consciousness. We worship female goddesses; we also give great importance to our mothers, daughters, sisters, wives and other female relatives or friends. But at the same time, Indians are also famous for treating their women badly both inside and outside their homes. Therefore, the concept of women empowerment not only focuses on giving women strength and skills to rise above from their miserable situation but at the same time it also stresses on the need to educate men regarding women issues and inculcating a sense of respect and duty towards women as equals. In the present write-up we will try to describe and understand the concept of Women Empowerment in India in all its dimensions. Women empowerment in simple words can be understood as giving power to women to decide for their own lives or inculcating such abilities in them so that they could be able to find their rightful place in the society.
Key-Words: Self-worth, Opportunities, Economic Order, Institutional Provisions, Social 
Legislation.

Here pre transportation stress like handling, confinement and air exposure stress was given to the Catla catla fingerlings. These fingerlings are divided into two group one group (i.e. handling and without handling). Fishes of handling and without handling group was fed with and without vitamin –C for 4weeks duration and weekly sampling was done on 7th,14th ,21st and 28th day.From each test group fishes are removed weekly and anesthetized for blood collection. Blood serum has been used for determining glucose level .Here there is no significant interaction between condition (i.e. handling and without handling) and vitamin C concentration (i.e.T0(0mg/kg), T1(300mg/kg) ,T2(600mg/kg), T3(900mg/Kg), T4(1200mg/Kg) and T5(1500mg/Kg)) on ,glucose on 7th day, sampling .But from 14thday upto 28th day sampling there is significant interaction (p<0.05) between condition and vitamin C concentration on glucose. The level of glucose, significantly differed (p<0.05)between T0 and other treatments (i.e. T1,T2,T3,T4,T5) but not significantly different between the treatment T4(1200mg/Kg) and T5(1500mg/Kg). So economically 1200mg/kg vitamin C supplemented in feed for 14days or more can effectively ameliorate the pre transportation stress of catla fingerlings. Keywords:,Catla catla; fingerlings; pre transportation stress; Vitamin C; Glucose

THE MARITAL LIFE HAPPINESS IN THE DUAL EARNER FAMILY UNIT

Mukesh Chand

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4661 - 4665

For almost two decades, the practice of dual earner family unit has also increased in families. Dual earner refers to the paid job of husband and wife. When both the people are working in the families, then their biggest challenge comes with the division of labor in the house like who will do what work at what time etc. In all this, women mainly have to look after the household chores, while they also go to work outside the house. By doing this, there is no shortage in the family's expectations from her in the family, despite being a working woman; family’s member wants to take full contribution in the household chores from her, as their mother or grandmother used to do. In such a condition, a working woman has to go through a stressful life or overloaded life role, due to which an attempt has been made in this research paper to know what effect it has on the happiness of her marital life. The Dyadic Adjustment Scale has been used as a tool to study the effect of being in a working or paid job on the happiness of a husband -wife's married life. In his study, the researcher found that working women have a great influence on the happiness of her married life. Despite being a working woman in the society, there has been no change in the expectations of being a woman. Which has a direct effect on the happiness of the marital life of the working woman and the working woman seems to be adjusting with all these, and probably will keep making adjustments like this until the society changes. Keyword: Dual earner family unit, overload life role, marital life, happiness.

CHANGE IN OCCUPATIONAL AND LIVING TRENDS AMONGST THE TRIBAL SOCIETIES OF INDIA

ShivRaj Singh Yadav

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4680 - 4684

Agriculture is the most popular economic activity of the tribal population of India. In comparison with the hunters and the gatherers, the horticulturists extract more resources from a given area of land and they have greater effect on the environment. The people inhabiting the hilly areas have adopted shifting cultivation methods. There are a number of tribes in India who subsist on traditional crafts and cottage industries like basketry, wood craft, weaving, iron smelting and rope making. There are certain tribes in India who are traditional singers, dancers, bards, acrobats and snake-charmers. Tribes belonging to this category depend on their art for their economic survival and subsistence. In the post Independence era, the Constitution of India has helped in creating job opportunities for tribal people by reserving seats in different services. As a result we find tribal people engaged in offices, hospitals and administrative jobs. Key Words: Occupational trends, Living trends, Economy, variability, Folk artist.

INTERANNUAL VARIABILITY OF SUMMER MONSOON RAINFALL OVER SOUTH PENINSULA

Patel Hemlata

Issue: Nov-Dec, 2016 | Volume/Issue:4/27 | Page No.: 4689 - 4701

The Indian summer monsoon continues to have a significant impact on the overall economy of the country. There are many occurrences of floods (strong monsoon) or drought (weak monsoon) during which India as a whole receives excess or deficient seasonal rainfall, respectively. Monsoon variations, particularly if they are unexpected, results in substantial economic and social consequences. On the other hand, an accurate long-lead prediction of monsoon rainfall can improve planning to alleviate the adverse effects of the inter-annual variability of the monsoon. India is surrounded by Indian Ocean and the annual cycle of SST in the Indian Ocean is crucially important in the distribution of precipitation over the Indian subcontinent. This research study tries to establish pragmatic relationships between sea-surface temperature (SST) and summer monsoon rainfall over southern peninsular region, herein called as South Peninsula. The study identifies four pockets in the Indian Ocean which can be considered as precursors to the subsequent summer monsoon rainfall. Correlation analysis with lags in months was carried out to establish association between the SST over these pockets and summer monsoon rainfall over the South Peninsula homogeneous region. The study revealed that the relationship between the two variables has undergone phase-change, and has oscillated between inverse and direct correlation values. This study will therefore be helpful in further broadening the scope for researchers to evaluate the impact of coupled land-ocean and air interactions for different meteorological homogeneous regions of India. Keywords: Indian Ocean, sea-surface temperature, summer monsoon rainfall, meteorological homogeneous region, South Peninsula, lag correlation
