It was observed that the highest percentage of phytochemicals available in Glycyrrhiza glabra than the sea weeds, so it would be utilized in better way towards the phytopharmaceutical drug development in future.

Organic farming is a method of crop and livestock production that involves much more than choosing not to use pesticides, fertilizers, genetically modified organisms, antibiotics and growth hormones. Organic production is a holistic system designed to optimize the productivity and fitness of diverse communities within the agro-ecosystem, including soil organisms, plants, livestock and people. Organic agriculture can be said to be practiced by more than 100 countries in the world. Indian policy makers also promoting organic farming for reasons like sustaining rural economy, improving soil health, creating good environment etc. In India organic farming has been in practice for decades. Organic farming is great importance and there are number of benefits for overall development of economy.The study pertained to Shikaripura Taluk, Shimoga District of Karnataka State. Development is a process of organized and dimensional growth driven by negative feed backs. It cannot be sustainable unless it is inclusive reducing poverty for the broad masses of people. This has particular concern for countries like ours having very large gap between rich and poor. The government needs to explore ways to enable rural poor to get benefit from agricultural development is the only one suggestion given adopting organic farming.The ultimate goal of the organic farming is to the enhancement of the sustainability. The organic farming is not an exclusive method for sustainable farming but it does soil and water protection and it conservation techniques of sustainable agriculture used to combat erosion, compaction, salinisation and other forms of degradation are evident in organic farming.

There are social and economic inequalities in India. There are many reasons for it. Traditional social structure is responsible for it. Caste system in society is one of the most important reasons behind it. Caste system is an obstacle in the economic and social development of the people. Status given by the caste system doesn’t allow people to improve their lifestyle. Education can remove these inequalities. Education plays very important role in human recourse development. It makes available various opportunities to the people. Therefore education is very important. There is a common problem of students’ dropout in every state. It can be seen in rural as well as urban area. Dropout rate is very high in backward regions because children need to work for the fulfillment of their basic needs. It’s higher in case of Schedules Castes and Schedule Tribes because their financial background is not strong. The basic objective of the research paper is to concentrate on various factors leading to the dropout of students in secondary education. It is observed that factors relating to family and society are highly responsible and correlated with this problem.

According to the UNESCO Charter “Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed” (UNESCO 1945).If we are to follow this, we need to change our mindset, our perceptions and our worldview to move from a culture of war to a culture of peace. Education is the powerful means to shape the people’s minds and hearts towards peace and is a powerful tool to promote peaceful culture. Teachers conduct the symphony of education. Teachers are role models of peace values. They must cherish the values and attitudes conducive to peace and exhibit the same in their behaviour. They must bring change in themselves first, to be the peace-builders. Hence, the present study aimed at developing culture of peace among student teachers for which the researcher designed modules of innovative strategies. The study used Quasi Experimental pre-test post-test non-equivalent group design. The modules were implemented on experimental group. Control group was not given any treatment. The inferential analysis used t-test, paired t-test and ANCOVA, the results of which show that the innovative strategies were useful in developing the values, attitudes and skills among student teachers of experimental group.

Computer technology has serviced the needs of business. Education maintains the role of providing a workforce that is both familiar and comfortable with computer related technologies and the type of labour they create. From this viewpoint, it is logical to expect educational institutions to provide their students with the experience of using Web technology in learning. The Internet may also be used to replace the traditional classroom lectures. A number of courses are being developed in which portions of the course or the entire course ware offered via the Internet. The instructor may place course notes on Web pages, may create video recording of a live lecture for viewing on the Internet, or use combinations of these ideas. Forsyth (1998) discussed several methods of preparing courses for the Internet including facilitating the use of video clips on Web pages as well as the use of forms and other graphics on Web pages.

Estimation of soil loss for the bhatghar reservoir helps to finding the spatial distribution of soil erosion in Bhortaluka of Pune district in Maharashtra. In the present study using Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) data, RS-GIS technique, and the soil loss model, Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) has been used to estimate soil loss in bhatghar reservoir catchment area. RUSLE factors (A = RKLSCP) multiplied together to calculatesoil erosion rates, and to generate soil erosion risk categories and soil erosion severity maps with the help of raster calculation in GIS tool. The results indicate that the distribution of soil erosion risk classes show that catchment has minimal soil loss is 73.98% ,low is 4.29%, moderate and severe is 1.24% and 1.95%, and extreme soil erosion occupies 18.54% of the catchment. The soil erosion severity zone map indicates that the 73.98% of the study area comes under very low and 19.22% area comes under very high severity zone. The spatial variance in surface erosion is recorded due to variation in rainfall, topography and morphological changes, variety of soil type and characteristics and anthropogenic disturbances. Hence from the present study, the applying techniques are doing vital role in realizing the soil loss of reservoir.

Abridged texts for English Language Learners help to improve the power of comprehension. Simplification of texts for ELLs revolves around application of less challenging words and syntax. While interpreting text by eliminating cultural and social interrelated information gives a broad scope of different interpretations and misunderstanding of cultural and social issues. This paper studies the abridged texts designed for ELLs through Readers Response Criticism. The qualitative reader understands that the process of making-meaning from a text depends on the interplay of factors related to the reader, the text, the social context and the cultural influences. The reader combines his intellectual and emotional meanings towards usage of symbols, images and other verbal things. For this purpose a short story ‘Father’s Help’ by RK Narayan’s “Malgudi Days” is taken for study. Group Discussion and comparative analysis of the text is analyzed cultural complications arise out of reading abridged text in interpreting and understanding the text by ELLs.

Conclusion: The conclusions show that the analyzed project can be configured as an example to be followed for the recovery of distressed, representing, therefore, an institutional field.

Salinity is a serious concern globally as it is a major factor limiting agricultural productivity. Salinity stress triggers a wide range of plant responses affecting cellular structures and metabolism. The influence of increasing saline stress on peroxidase enzyme in Vigna radiata (L.)R. Wilczek and Vigna mungo (L.)Hepper seeds were investigated. The seeds were germinated in Hoagland’s solution containing 25mM, 50mM, 75mM and 100mM NaCl. Samples were taken out at 24 hour intervals for 6 days and enzyme and protein assay was done. It was found that in both Vigna radiata and Vigna mungo the peroxidase activity increased as the duration and the concentration of NaCl was increased. The percentage of enzyme activity over control was also found to be increasing in both plants with increasing salt concentration and duration of treatment. The percentage of peroxidase activity over control was found to be more in Vigna radiata than in Vigna mungo. The amount of protein was found to be more in 100mM NaCl treated seedlings and the amount decreases as the duration increases in both Vigna radiata and Vigna mungo. Enzyme activity in units/mg protein was calculated and was found to be more in Vigna mungo. These results indicated that the peroxidase activity was clearly related to the ability of survival in these plants and the ability to detoxify H2O2.

Willingness to help others is an essential attitude by which one can lead effective social life. The term pro-social relates to behaviour which is positive and intended to benefit other individuals. It is an intentional voluntary behaviour intended to benefit another(Eisenberg, 1990). The study tries to compare the pro-social behaviour with respect to demographic variables i.e., sex, locality and type of school management and to find out whether there is a relationship between pro-social behaviour and academic achievement of higher secondary students of East Khasi Hills District. There is significant difference between male and female, between urban and rural and government, government aided and private higher secondary students with regard to pro-social behaviour. There is also a significant correlation between pro-social behaviour and academic achievement of higher secondary students. So, academic achievement increases when students act pro-socially.

Shakespeare’s most of the tragedies are studied in the specific aspect and considered that they are exposing the universal aspects of human life. None of the critics dares to talk about his oriental views laid in his bottom of heart. In each tragic plays, these aspects obviously seem in nutshell. Only Tempest is considered as a play of oriental views. But every character who suffers from his tragic flaw, can be considered as a occidental character and orients deliberately create such system or mind pattern by which the audience feels that the sufferers should suffer more to get rid from their black deeds. Othello is such a play which is ever considered as a play of racism. None of the researchers tried to tread beyond racism. The next step of study the play Othello is to look at it with the oriental views presented in this play. The protagonist of the play Othello belongs to the black race. Yet Desdemona falls in his love. Actually, many incidents in the play expose that it was not a love but the hate against black community which leads Desdemona to drag Othello in the jaw of death. The present article minutely concentrates on playwright’s oriental views through the play Othello.

In contemporary society the concern about the relation of man to the environment is pertinent, considering the intrinsic relation that exists between them. This presupposes the research problem: "What is the degree of environmental awareness of the residents of the community - ResidencialParqueCachoeirinha, considering the alarming level of degradation in the buildings of the community that make up the community?" The general objective is to investigate the environmental knowledge of the residents of the Community - ResidencialParqueCachoeirinha, in an attempt to use the data found to explain the degree of environmental degradation in the community. The justification is given by the importance of understanding the relationship between man and nature and man with his peers, through Environmental Education. The methodology respects the characteristics of the quantitative / qualitative research and as regards the objectives, the characteristics of the descriptive and explanatory research. We hope with this work to contribute to the discussions about Non-Formal Environmental Education in the community locus of study and, consequently, of communities with the same reality in the city of Manaus.

Public knowledge of crime and justice is largely derived from the media. This paper examines the influence of media consumption on fear of crime, punitive attitudes and perceived police effectiveness. This research contributes to the literature through increasing expertise on the relationship among worry of crime and media intake. This study also contributes to restricted studies on the media’s influence on punitive attitudes, while offering a miles-needed evaluation of the connection between media intake and pleasure with the police. Employing OLS regression, the results suggest that respondents who are normal viewers of crime drama are much more likely to worry crime. However, the relationship is susceptible. furthermore, the effects imply that gender, training, income, age, perceived neighborhood issues and police effectiveness are statistically associated with worry of crime. Similarly, fear of crime, profits, marital fame, race, and education are statistically associated with punitive attitudes. Subsequently, age, fear of crime, race, and perceived neighborhood issues are statistically related to perceived police effectiveness.

Hence, efforts and initiatives were directed towards simplistic linear expansion: more schools and more teachers and more children in the primary school system.The National Policy on Education (1986/1992) and the World Declaration on Education for all (1990) put the concept of UEE(basic education) in an inclusive conceptual framework ,which provided a direction and intensity to the efforts mounted to achieve UEE, which continues even today as a ‘teasing reality’ . The concepts of UEE which acquired clarity and comprehensiveness. To put it simply, UEE components were delineated more correctly: (i) universal provision and access ; (ii) universal participation and completion; and (iii) a substantial improvement in the quality education , mostly defined as ‘breadth and depth’ of learning acquisition.

Child labor is an evil which is a worldwide problem and a large number of children are subjected to inhuman treatment and are denied of their basic rights. Children, who are the future responsible youth, must be politically aware, because they have to cast their vote and choose representatives to rule. Those children who are engaged in child labor are not aware about their rights and having very low level of political orientation. In Kashmir valley of Jammu and Kashmir, due to continuous shot downs, strikes, protests, and cross firing etc. has kept the school going students inside their homes resulting in child labor in so many ways. Difficult terrain and topography coupled with hardships of winter also keeps its subjects confined to homes which has kept them economically backward and in order to earn a living, they have adopted many occupations like cottage level industries which they can perform within the households even though these are hazardous to their health and also fetch low economic returns. A number of International conventions have been passed to protect the children from exploitation but yet the Children are not provided environment in which they can groom as physically, morally and mentally developed subjects. In spite of all these measures, the problem of child labor still continues and there is ominous need to reconsider and re-devise our policies and programs so that people are not forced by their economic necessity or otherwise to send their children for work.

Keeping in mind the end goal to put Anita Desai in appropriate viewpoint, it is basic to contrast her and the contemporary women authors who share her topic of human relationship.

The statehood of Eritrea is apparently going through “No wars No peace” condition, UNSC imposed sanction, immense international pressure for human rights violations and most importantly under a state of an imminent outbreak of war with Ethiopia. Such standoff resulted into internal dismay, inconceivable influx of refugees with grave alarm that provoked the reaction of Diaspora which yet remain bizarre to fathom on the role played out to that effect. Understandably, the role of Diasporas is acknowledged not only in sustaining and winning war of liberation but also in the reconstruction and development process following independence.

Literature can influence society in a way that impacts the person, who is an active participant of change. Women are proved that they are capable of doing anything which is obvious through their writings. The perceptions of women are changing towards the society which is noticeable through the gradual transformation of their themes they are representing. These themes have been travelling from personal psychological turmoil to woman in a broad sense and today they are in position to question and fight against the sensitive social issues of contemporary India. Majority of women writers depict the psychological suffering and oppressed lives of women through their fiction, the writers outstretched themselves from regional to universal level to stress on the universal aspects of colonization, imperialism, condition of subalter. Non-fictional works are the great sources to understand the prevailing social conditions of the day, In general, we say women positions in India getting better by looking at the very few women who succeed but the condition of ordinary women is still in pitiable condition in a typical Indian womanhood rapt in between socio-cultural factors disseminated by patriarchal dominance. The journey of Indian women writers from takeoff to triumph has started glaring.

According to the Nations United, water contaminated kills more than war. In addition, the lack of water and sanitation treatment leads to the deaths of thousands of people. It has a direct influence on quality of life, health and human development. Specifically in Brazil, mainly in the Amazon Region, due to the big territory and lack of basic infrastructure, this situation is even worse. Treatment options in these regions are scarce, and social technologies are being developed to provide absence of essential services for the population. The aim of this work is to develop a water treatment system for human consumption in the Rural Settlement of Canoas, 38 kilometers from Presidente Figueiredo - Amazonas. Bacteriological analyzes were performed on water samples from the wells, before and after the implementation of the automatic system proposed in this dissertation. Thus, the analyzed water sources were considered unsuitable for human consumption without previous treatment of the automatic system. With the use of the system, the analyzes carried out by the Sanitary Surveillance of the Municipality of Presidente Figueiredo showed that the results did not present any more indexes of water contamination, that is, the water was eliminated, making it suitable for human consumption.

Election Commission of India (ECI) is an autonomous constitutional body which is formed to conduct free and fair elections to the democratic institutions. There are many challenges and problems faced by Commission while conducting of elections such as corruption, muscle power, criminalization of politics, rigging and booth capturing, proxy voting, etc. To overcome these challenges, there are frequent recommendations and reforms of elections such as use of EPICs, Electronic Voting Machines, VVPAT machines, Model Code of Conduct, posting of para-military forces for maintaining security, limitation and control on Election Expenses by contesting candidates, etc. Still, it is observed that, there are few of the challenges such as proxy voting, creation of fake voter ids, etc have become challenge for ECI while conducting free and fair elections to Indian democracy. Hence, it is suggested to link UIDAI (Aadhar) to the EPIC to conduct transparent elections. Further, more autonomy is needed for ECI to execute rules and regulations strictly.

The American advertising director William Bernbach says that “Good Advertising does not just circulate information. It penetrates the public mind with desires and belief”. Therefore social media is a digital platform to advertise the products and services which reach the nook and corner of the world. The advertisement creates awareness about arrival of a particular product and services among the general public who has a purchase power and they are willing to purchase to satisfy the human wants. Most of the developing countries, particularly in India, people are frequently using social media for chat, comment, sharing information and watching advertisements. With the advent of technology, the social media is like a virus which spreads nook and corner of the world through smart phones, laptops and personal computers which are connected to the internet. Hence the manufactures of the product or service are connected and understand the wave lines of the customers via social media. The marketers use this platform as a weapon to target people particularly youngsters, through contemporary advertising methods like the banner advertisement, flash advertisement, coupons, multimedia messaging services picture and video advertisements. This study gives an explanation on the perception of youngsters towards social media advertisements. The data was collected with the help of well- structured questionnaire. Convenient sampling method was used to represent 120 respondents from the population in Kanyakumari district. The result of the analysis indicates that majority of the respondents access Facebook through their smartphones for watching advertisements. 4.2 (mean score) respondents made use of social media for getting product information and they are in the age group of 17-20 years and also that they are motivated by their friends to watch advertisements. This paper also gives some suggestions to the advertisers to capture the young consumers.

According to the 2011 Census, while 82.3 percent of women in rural India are engaged in agricultural activity or household industry, only 28.83 percent of them are cultivators. Moreover, almost 60% of women are outside the labour force and do not participate in any gainful economic activity, which is among the highest in the world. The NRLM was launched in 2011 and implemented in Andaman and Nicobar Islands and it is being a well planned scheme for economic empowerment for women, monitoring of the programme was felt appropriate to ensure sustainability of the ventures. The main aim of the study is to find out the socioeconomic status of the NRLM Beneficiaries and analyse the economic empowerment of the Beneficiaries. The area selected for the present study is South Andaman. 400 samples were selected by using stratified random sampling method. An interview schedule was used to elicit the socio economic status of NRLM beneficiaries; a five point empowerment scale was developed and used by the researcher to assess the level of economic empowerment of the respondents. Both primary and secondary data were collected for the study. The collected data were statistically analysed and interpreted by using appropriate statistical tool. The present study provides ample of evidence to the fact that NRLM training through SHGs laid the seed for social and economic empowerment of women. NRLM training through SHGs is the viable tool for promoting rural entrepreneurship in a holistic approach. The study has proved by enhancing their contribution to household income and increase the value of their assets. Thus NRLM no doubt empowered women and contributed significantly to the socio-economic development of rural women.

It is known that oil production represents a type of activity with strong potential to cause harm to the environment, although there is a great effort on the part of the refineries to modernize their production mode more and more in order to avoid any contamination of the environment, in particular the aquatic environment. It should also be noted that even though there is an awareness of the benefits derived from petroleum products, society generally understands that there are harmful effects of enjoying the comfort brought by this type of fossil, at times preferring to give it up in protection of the environment clean and balanced. Throughout the research, the contact with documents produced by the refineries, it was noticed that the same ones have also tried to broaden their range of commitment with the protection of the environment, looking for ways to correspond to the expectations of the society and the control organisms, to assume a management model committed to the defense of natural resources. It was noted in the work that one of the main concerns of the refineries is with the production water, whose representation reaches practically 99% in the activities carried out, that needs to be treated before being dumped to the environment, as well as the effluents that undergo a rigorous treatment process. In view of the context, it is important to note that searching for new technological standards is fundamental to keeping the environment protected from contaminating effluents. Thus, the objective of analyzing the potential environmental impacts generated by oil production, in particular by refinery effluents, has been reached. In order to do so, the methodology of searching data in the literature and at the locus was fundamental to reach the results presented in the research.

Idea of human rights came in central debate since last two decades, but the concept of human rights is as old as human civilization. With very beginning of human society, the rights were reflected through the citizenship. Individuals those who were citizen, can enjoy the rights and a very big number of human were slave and denied from even basic rights, not only in ancient western civilization but in ancient eastern civilization also. After the two famous revolutions, American and French, it has accepted that the rights are for all over humankind not only for a section of society. The notion that humans are rights bearers and being human everyone is entitled for enjoy the rights has emerged.

Poverty one of the major Problems in the Indian Economic System. This paper offers a comprehensive analysis of poverty in India. It shows that no matter which of the two official poverty lines we use, poverty has declined steadily in all states and for all social and religious groups. the decline in poverty rates during these years has been sharper for the socially disadvantaged groups relative to upper caste groups so that we now observe a narrowing of the gap in the poverty rates between the two sets of social groups. The paper also provides a discussion of the recent controversies in India regarding the choice of poverty lines. India we have had a long history of studies on measurement of poverty. There are in fact many approaches to it. Some analysts focus on deprivations. There are however many problems associated with this approach including difficulties in aggregating deprivations on several scores derived from different data sources. Perhaps the best approach is look at it in terms of certain minimum consumption expenditure per person or preferably per household. Any household failing to meet this level of consumption expenditure can be treated as a poor household. This minimum level of consumption expenditure can be derived, in turn, in terms of minimum expenditure on food and non-food items. Minimum food consumption is related to fulfilling certain nutritional standards. However the minimum non-food consumption is more problematical. The Report explains how we went about it.

Medium of instruction wise professional adjustment of teachers was examined by the researcher on a sample of 792 teachers. Teachers have been classified into two categories viz. English and Hindi medium. To assess the status of professional adjustment of teachers, “Teachers Professional Adjustment Inventory" developed and validated by Rizvi was used. The reliability and validity of the tool were found 0.89 and 0.66 respectively. On the basis of percentile rank and professional adjustment scores, professional adjustment status of teachers have been classified into three levels viz. well-adjusted, average-adjusted low-adjusted. Analysis of data was done by t-test and ? 2 test through SPSS version 13.0.. This study reveals that there is no significant difference between professional adjustment of English and Hindi medium teachers in form A only but not in combined forms (A + B) and in form B. Even, professional adjustment levels of two groups are statistically significant. This shows that professional adjustment of teachers is not effected by medium of instruction.

In this paper we have presented Bacterial Die-off, Adsorption and Volatilization process as a transformation process, these process are very important in the study water quality. We first discussed the rate of disappearance of pathogenic bacteria and viruses due to die approximately by the first-order kinetic. In adsorption the relationship between the equilibrium concentrations of a constituent in the liquid and solid phases is governed by its adsorption isotherm is discussed and we also given the equation giving the rate of decrease of the constituent concentration due to volatilization.

Almost every country has been a male-dominated one, except very few countries. Traditionally, patriarchy was perceived to be the rule of a man in a family. This male-dominated society is also called a patriarchal society. However, patriarchy is now descriptive of all maledominated social systems. The word patriarchy literally means the rule of the Male or Father. The structure of the patriarchy is always considered the power status of male, authority, control of the male and oppression, domination of the man, suppression, humiliation, sub-ordination and subjugation of the women. A women, no matter how smart or kind she may be looked down upon if she is overweight or does not conform to the concept of conventional beauty. In a patriarchal society, women are expected to be submissive and obedient at all times. The control of women is stressed. Women are not allowed to make decision. The patriarchy leads the women to accept male control. Men are the supreme authority and women are the followers. The woman has been given a secondary and inferior position in her family and society. All these can be changed when we provide good education to the woman. It is a powerful tool to create drastic changes in the life of the woman. In this article, I will attempt to show that the status of woman in patriarchal India.

Conceptualizing state distinct from society and the political system and drawing clear cut boundary between them does not explain much the particular trajectory of state’s role in economic growth, however ‘master’ the concept be. Peter Evans’ thesis of ‘embedded autonomy’ understands embeddedness and autonomy in its instrumental way and hence separates state from its society. It, then, becomes very difficult to understand a society with phenomenal economic growth in the absence of appropriate permuted level of embeddedness and autonomy of state, particularly Bihar.

It has been admired by many a critic that Osborne effected a ‘ turning point ’ a ‘break through ’, an ‘upsurge ’ , a ‘ revolution ’ by his fascinating dramas in the history of British theatre. But this kind of break through could be brought out by the playwright only by the authority and humanity of his voice. Indeed his voice is unique and alone in his ability to put on stage – the raising and slowing down of the pitch of the voice, bewildering range from tenderness to cold fury . His words have a star quality and they are “ longer than life ”. This is not by the virtue of the length of the speech or even its content but it is achieved by the measure of organization. It is achieved by the technique in which the words and the sentences or arranged, and how changes of speed, mood and the tone are achieved. Every dialogue and monologue of Osborne’s protagonists are at first will measured and are controlled in their delivery.

Civilization is the gift of river but now rivers are realized what types of feedback are coming from that civilization. Every civilization and cultural hearths were developed along the rivers. River is the source of water and water is the source of life. River is the heart of civilization and for this planet’s major and minor historical-cultural hearths were developed along river-sites. Rivers has its own health like civilization. But due to uncontrolled population growth and the unplanned civilization the heath of the river is being deteriorating. For these reason once the 7 major cultural hearths and civilization were developed but after a time-span those have destroyed and became ruined.

Urbanization may be defined as the process of formation or gradual growth of cities and towns. Its main dimensions are (a) progressive population concentration, (b) predominance of non-agricultural activities (c) structural and socio-physical changes .It is a fact that urban localities have increased from 17.3%to27.8%in the last few decades (1951 to 2001).But if we consider the another side of these development, a number of problems have also been identified .The situation is more acute both in case of the smaller and larger towns. Unplanned growths, rural to urban migration, insensible social and economic behaviour, and lastly general deterioration of environmental quality have come out as of utmost concern. Under these circumstances, the plight of the newly emerged town and cities should be highlighted as the present smaller towns will be big cities in the near future. So, the towns like Raiganj should be paid much more attention for its proper and perfect growth which will be environment oriented. The ever increasing problem of solid waste generation, its disposal and management in the Raiganj Municipality, West Bengal has been discussed upon data collected and generated in the field. It has been observed that this municipal town has experienced a remarkably rapid urbanization particularly over the last three decades and the extension of infrastructure of the urban service system, provided through the municipal office, has not been able to keep pace with this. Huge quantities of both bio-degradable and non bio-degradable wastes are being generated every day and due to the shortage of manpower and transport facilities solid waste disposal service cannot work properly. Rapid development of slums in the fringe areas of this municipal town in recent years has also aggravated the problem of solid waste management and disposal.

Hard and experimental attitude of raisin producer and favorable weather condition raisin production increased tremendously in Tasgaon Tahasil. Due to huge raisin production, there is problem of marketing of raisins. Since 1984 raisins were sold through brokers, commission agents and by wholesale dealers.

The Indian temples whether Buddhist, Jain or Hindu could be view in two perspectives, viz., horizontal and vertical. By layout, we mean the horizontal alignment of the temple. Architectural aspects are more discernible in the vertical alignment. The present articles analyses the features typical of the Vaisnava temples in their horizontal and vertical orders. The Kaviri delta is an abode of temple art and architecture. The Colas and their successors, the Vijayanagara – Nayaks, have render immoral services to stud the delta region with a host of temples, dedicated the various Hindu divinities particularly Vishnu and Siva. Of all the divyaksetras in region, Tiruvarur and its suburb provide the venue for several temples. This article has ventured to highlight the significance of Vishnu temple at Kannapuram, Tiruvarur district. This temple claim hoary antiquity as immortalized in the hymns of the Alvars. Kannapuram is of great significance because it figures prominently in the hymns of Kulacekarar, Nammalvar, Antal and Tirumankai. All excepting Tirumankai belong to the middle Alvar group and so the temple is famous since at least the 7th – 8 th century. Inscriptional evidences date since the time of Kulottunga III, down to Rajaraja III and date to the time of the later Pandyas. Architectural evidences would establish the fact that the temple was a growing entity down to the Nayak time.

Struggles and hardships faced by Black women have been a part of American history and a number of writers have highlighted the predicament of these women. Their situation will change if they resist. Those women who stand against this prejudiced treatment alone can taste the freedom in their life which forms the crux of the novels of Paule Marshall. Women who have determination, strength and power can weep out the problems encountered by them in their life. The male constructed idea of women as docile beings is shattered by this writer as she believes in women’s power and determination. Therefore her women characters have enormous power to encounter the trials and tribulations in their life. The issues of racism, classism, sexism, identity crisis form major themes in the oeuvres of Marshall and she focuses on the life of black women in alien land. Black women’s ability to cope up with the whites and their culture shown in her novels places her as a unique writer among the contemporary writers. In this article, the woes of Marshall’s women resulting from racism, slave treatment meted out by whites, and the impact of indigenous culture are taken up for analysis. Marshall’s ambitious women struggling to get due recognition from the society for retaining their self-respect are forced to behave in hard, straightforward, and frustrated way. During their hot rush up of the journey to reach their destiny, they throw their hindrances and barriers away even it is their husbands. In this way, Marshall displays their strong will, determined mind, and authority and unique way of handling the complex situations as well.

Rural Indian economy is characterized by demand constrained as well as supply constrained economy. Modern jobless growth of Indian economy is accentuating further problems of our rural economy. In this situation NREGA works were expected to take care of both the sides together. But arbitrariness in selection of total number of work days related with social capital formation, independent of the level of skill formation in the economy, availability of technological inputs will ultimately lead to the suboptimal situation. The NREGA was motivated by the fact that India’s recent economic growth had not reached large sections of the rural population and that this urban based growth, was deepening divisions in the economy and society. The nineties were termed as a period of ‘job-less growth’ as high GDP growth rates failed to generate adequate employment opportunities. In fact, during the mid to late nineties (1993-94 to 1999-2000) when annual GDP growth rates increased and stood at over 7 per cent per annum, employment growth rate declined and was only a little over 1 per cent per annum. While the share of the agricultural sector in total employment is reducing, albeit at a low pace, over half of the entire labour force is still engaged in agriculture.

The village of Avur under the Palayakar of Kadalur south of Tiruchirappalli had become by the end of the 17th century the headquarters of the Jesuit Mission. By 1700 there were in the Avur area more than 30,000 Catholics with 29 churches. One of the peak years seemed to have been 1709, when some 10,000 adults were baptized. Most of the Christians found in the Avur - Tiruchirappalli region were Dalits. The Church at Fort has had a historical importance for two hundred years. The fort contains the first English church built in Tiruchirappalli, Christ Church, and north of the Teppakulam, built by Schwartz in the year 1762 – 66 with funds subscribed by officers of the British garrison.

It is estimated that more than half of the population residing in the continents like Asia and Africa are not having an access to the clean water to drink. Many diseases are spreading like wildfire due to unhealthy drinking water. The most frequent victims of this unsafe drinking water are the children because they are unaware about the diseases that may spread due to drinking unhealthy water that is easily available. It is the responsibility of the caretakers of the children, the governmental agencies, educated youth, elders and so on to provide the safe drinking water to the children. The main reason of about eighty (80 %) per cent of the health related problems are caused by the water with various contaminants supplied for the drinking purposes to the people. The only solution to this issue is that the governmental agencies, non-governmental organisations, corporate sector and so on should provide the safe and pure drinking water to the population under their respective jurisdiction and should generate awareness about drinking water after heating it well and then cooled for usage.
