A water soluble galactomannan having D-Mannose (4-part) and D-Galactose (2-parts) was isolated from Cassia Tora. In cassia Tora Hydrolysis of methylated seed gum furnished three methylated sugars, 2, 4-di-O-methyl-D-mannose, 2, 4,6-tri-O-methyl-D-mannose and 2, 3,4,6-tetra-O-methy-D-galactose was present in molar ratio 2:3:2. Partial acid catalysed hydrolysis of the seed gum gave four oligosaccharides epimelibiose, mannobiose, galactosyl mannobiose, mannotriose along with the component sugars. Periodate oxidation and methylation studies in cassia Tora showed 44% of end groups from the recent studies it is the concluded that galactose unit in galactomannan only terminal positions.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of complex training and contrast training on speed and resting pulse rate among sportsmen. Forty five subjects were selected from Selvam College of physical education, Namakkal, Tamilnadu and their age ranged from 18 to 23 years. The subjects were equally divided into three groups with fifteen subjects in each group. The group I was treated with complex training group, Group II was treated with contrast training group and Group III was treated with control group. Training was given for a period of 8 weeks. The results of pre-test and post-test were statistically analyzed by using analysis of co-variance. The result when compared between the two experimental groups revealed that resting pulse rate had no significant improvement due to complex training and contrast training when compared to the control group. But speed had significant improvement due to complex training and contrast training when compared to the control group.

It is well settled that an unreason able delay in the administration of justice constitutes an unconscionable denial of justice. Prolonged trial and delay in justice infringes right to life. Delay in the trial of criminal cases affects not only the accused, victim but society as a whole. Delay in the trial of criminal cases might involve destruction of liberty and annoyance to the occupation of the accused and puts him to undue harassment. On the other hand it results in the failure of criminal justice system to control the retributive tendencies and generally leads to dismay and delusion of the victim and encourages him and the society to take law in to his own hands and thereby recourse to unlawful means to settle scores with the perpetrators of the crime themselves. If the problem of delay and arrears, and pendency in criminal process is not properly addressed the people would lose faith in the ability of process to dispense justice endangering the very existence of the system.
