Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : This investigation aimed to study the effect of two types of gelling agent (agar and gelrite) on in vitro growth of Momordicacharantia. Agar was tested at the concentrations (5g/l, 7g/lor 10g/l), while 1.5g/l, 2.5g/lor 3.5g/lgelritewere used.Shoot tip and nodal cutting were used as two types of explant. Nodal cutting explants showed the best performance for in vitro growth. Data indicated that,7g/lagar gave the highest values of callus formation percentage and both of fresh and dry weight of callus, while gelrite was effective in increasing the shoot and root formation, as 2.5g/l gelrite significantly increasedthe percentage of shoot and root formation. However, both number of shoots and nods showed to be highest when 3.5g/l gelrite was added to the medium.Shoot length was significantly highest with 1.5g/l gelrite. Data clearly indicated that, highest percentage of survived plantlets which transferred to pots was obtained with 7g/l agar, but 1.5g/lgelrite gave no survival results. Hyperhydricity was significantly increased when 1.5g/l gelritewas used with nodal cutting explants whichexcised from plantlets grown on medium contained 2 mg/l BA,thensub-cultured on free- growth regulators MS medium. Data were detectedafter 4 weeks of incubation. For detection the effect of MS nutrient salt strength on in vitro growth using 7g/l agar or 2.5g/l gelrite with nodal cutting explant,data showed that,half strength of MS medium contained7g/l agar significantly increased callus formation percentage.While full strength MS medium contained2.5g/l gelrite significantly increased the percentage of shoot and root.Different MS nutrient strengths (0.5, 1.25 or 1.50) gave highest number of shoots without significant difference; however they significantly surpassed full strength of MS in that, concern. Moreover the highestnumber of nods was observed with 1.5 strength of Msnutrient mediumcontained 2.5g/l gelrite. The highest value of shoot length was recorded by using 1.25 strength of MS nutrient medium contained 2.5g/l gelrite |

Diasporic elements in Gita Mehta's A RIVER SUTRA |
Author : Mahadev K.Waghmode |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Gita Mehta is one of the well-known contributors in Indian English Literature. She is a diasporic writer settled in America at present. Indian English Literature has a long tradition of women writers such as earlier novelists Kamala Markandaya, Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, Anita Desai, Shashi Deshpande, Arundhati Roy, Kiran Desai, etc. Compared to these women novelists Gita Mehta's contribution is though quantitatively less but it is qualitatively significant because of her handling of the subject-matter and form. As a diasporic writer, she dedicated her writing towards Indian culture and society. She published A River Sutra in 1993. The novel centers on India's holiest river, the Narmada. She is a writer, inhabiting two worlds with equal ease. She has experienced cultural difference by living in two different cultures. Gita Mehta is the daughter of the well-known freedom fighter Biju Patnaik of Orissa. She was born in Delhi. The diasporic work often reveals the author's subversive agenda as the narratives both reflect and create ways of seeing and modes of articulation that reinforce dispossession and dislocation and the dichotomy of living astride two cultures. Women experience diaspora under three conditions – first, when they grow up in a foreign land with their migrant parents; secondly, by virtue of their marriage when they are uprooted from their parental home and then from their homeland; and thirdly, when they exercise their concise choice to go to some western Metropolitan centre in pursuance of their ambition, higher education or some lucrative job. In real-life experience, they are caught between all the psychological problems of the diaspora, such as dislocation, unbelonging, marginalization, and cultural dissonance that are common also to men, and also a variety of oppressive conditions and discriminatory practices peculiar to gender both inside and outside the community. |

Subjugation Of Woman In Margaret Atwood's THE EDIBLE WOMAN |
Author : Panchappa R. Waghmare |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -A quest for women's identity has been a key idea of contemporary feminist thought. Feminist literary criticism exposed a serious clash between the traditional view of the women's role in the society and the way women perceived themselves. It is this clash that is of particular interest to Margaret Atwood in her novel The Edible Woman. The heroine of the novel, Marian, is bound by the stereotyped notion of her role in society; she realizes the deficiencies of this concept and try to defy it. The means of her struggle to find her identity, as well as the differences, shifts and similarities in the description of women's experience in relation to the changes of the social climate are the main foci of this paper. This research paper designs to show the specifics of women's experience in Margaret Atwood's novel The Edible Woman, analyzing the strategies the woman character employ in her quest for identity. After the identification of the mechanisms that coerce women to conform to the stereotyped image of an ideal and specification of the conflict between the social conception of an ideal woman and self-perception of the heroines, the work will concentrate on the similarities, differences and effectiveness of the identity seeking strategies with special emphasis on the social changes between the publication of both novels. |

Novel Pathway For The Synthesis Of Mesoporous Material Of M41s Family Member Mcm-41 |
Author : Pritee Hundekar And Joshi Uday D. |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : A novel synthesis route was developed for the hexagonal member of the M41S family. Attempts have been made for the preparation of MCM-41 by variation of the surfactant/silicon molar ratio and various proportion of ammonia as a catalyst in synthesis reaction gel. The well crystalline Si-MCM-41 is synthesized in the short time interval of 2 h and at room temperature. XRD, FTIR, BET surface area measurements were used to characterize the synthesized samples. We found that as the surfactant/silicon ratio increases the specific surface area increase to great extent. Similarly, it was observed that high specific surface area can be attained by increasing the catalyst concentration at constant - surfactant/silicon molar ratio. These mesoporous molecular sieves showed high specific surface area 1628.59 m2g 1 and ordered cylindrical channel system. This property makes MCM-41 very interesting to be used as a support material for catalytic materials in many industrial based reactions such as petro-chemicals, hydrogen productions as fuel. Moreover, this material has proved his potential candidature in variety of applications in the field of sorption, separation, optics, electronics, sensors, air purification, waste water treatment etc. The main advantages of this method are short reaction time, excellent reproducibility and easy to scale-up the preparation method. |

Control Performance Evaluation of Solar PV Cells Connected to an AC Grid |
Author : Meda Koteswararao And Pappu Pawanputhra |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques are employed in photovoltaic (PV) systems to make full utilization of the PV array output power which depends on solar irradiation and ambient temperature. Among all the MPPT strategies, perturbation and observation (P&O) method is widely applied in the MPPT controllers due to their simplicity and easy implementation. Multilevel inverters became more popular in the power conversion systems for high power and power quality demanding applications. Among different topologies of MLIs, Cascaded H-Bridge MLIs are more suitable converters for PV applications since each PV panel can act as a separate DC source for each CHB module. This paper presents a simulation analysis 5-level CHBMLI for PV applications with the SPWM control technique using MATLAB/SIMULINK. |

The Role Of Electronics, Communication And Information Technology In Agriculture |
Author : Achyutananda Das And D K Das |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -Electronics, Telecommunication and Information Technology play great role for the modernization of agriculture. This in turn provides comforts to the farmer while operating the farm machineries. Agriculture provides all living beings with food and fiber. Use of tractors and other machines have boosted the agriculture production in a great deal to meet the ever increasing needs for the food and fiber. Hence, the prediction of tractor performance has been a major focus for many researchers over last twenty years. The commercial draft control systems engaged in today's tractors are found to be inefficient due to the poor control mechanism. To overcome this problem, slip control mechanism was developed in place of draft control mechanism. To facilitate the same, an accurate wheel slip measurement device was developed for 2WD tractors. The display unit of the device was installed near front panel of the tractor to provide proper guidance to the driver for controlling the depth of operation. This system can be easily installed on any make and model of 2WD tractors by uploading the rolling radii of the front and rear wheels through computer interface. The measuring efficiency of the slip meter was found to be 99.5% with a maximum error of 0.19%. The developed system was installed on a test tractor and the performance data indicated that the fuel consumption was reduced to about 21.3 %. The slip meter performed satisfactorily and the efficiency was found to be about 99.5%. There was a gain in tractive efficiency (4-10%) with slip control system over the existing draft control system. It was found that the soil conditions like soil moisture and soil salinity also played very important role in influencing slip parameters of the tractor tyres. |

Oscillations With Periods Outside The Micropulsation Range, Various Auroral Zone And Typical Micropulsation Period Bands |
Author : Hanumantha Raju N |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Conspicuous micropulsations in the auroral zones with periods from 0.03 to 10 seconds have been studied using data obtained by the Pacific Naval Laboratory and Stanford University during January 1961. For periods less than 0.3 second bursts of oscillations frequently occur superimposed on the background level of ELF noise. These bursts are considered to be of extra-atmospheric origin because of their conjugate relationships. For periods between 0.3 and 10 seconds four typical classes are defined: (1) Burstlike micropulsations, with quite a wide range of frequencies, which appear at the onset of a polar storm or bay (noise burst). (2) Pearl, beating-type micropulsations, occurring intermittently so that they form separate bunches (PP). (3) Continuous micropulsations, typically found in the forenoon, with periods from 0.3 to 3 seconds (CPsp). (4) Continuous micropulsations, typically found in the afternoon, with periods from 3 to 10 seconds (CPlp). Not every polar storm or bay is accompanied by noise bursts. Noise bursts are found only at the onset of polar storms or bays occurring around or before local midnight. Separate bunches of pearl, beating-type micropulsations are attributed to a bouncing agent whose bouncing period of a few minutes can be determined from the time lag of their occurrences in conjugate areas. If the agent repeatedly excites micropulsations, they are continuous, although sometimes a correlation analysis between conjugate points indicates a bouncing period similar to that of PP. Possible physical mechanisms are suggested for these four classes of micropulsations. A significant summer time micropulsation band at 4sec period is revealed in the several years of continuous micropulsation recording at College. The band contains mainly Pc-type activity, but is also seen in certain weak Pi 1 bursts. A small diurnal variation in band mid period was observed, with periods near 4 sec in day and near 3 sec at night. The 4-sec events are usually less well structured than higher frequency pearl-type events, and the frequency-time elements are often irregularly spaced. The possibility exists that the 4-sec band is due to the principal exospheric resonance. |

Training And Development- Effect Of Demographic & Situational Factors |
Author : Khushboo Malhotra And Bhawana Sharma |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Training and development is the field which is concerned with organizational activity aimed at bettering the performance of individuals and groups inorganizational settings. It has been known by several names, including human resource development, and learning and development. In the current scenario, there are major forces within the banking industry requiring organisations to seek new &innovative methods to deliver services more efficiently. This has huge implications for overall employee development and human resource planning. Bartlett (2007) argues that HRD issues associated with these changes are often overlooked. Furthermore, although ensuring that learning is transferred and utilised in the workplace remains of critical importance for HRD researchers and practitioners (Burke & Hutchins, 2008), Clarke (2007 and 2002) states that very little empirical research on training transfer has been conducted in human service organisations. This paper reports on the effect of demographic variables on training transfer from a study that collected data from 104 employees of 2 banks within Jaipur namely, Kotak Mahindra Bank & Standard Chartered Bank. The variables explored were employee age, education, salary range, designation, marital status, employment tenure, and some situational factors affecting training. The study found that a number of the variables investigated, significantly impacted on levels of training transfer. These results have important implications for HRD practitioners with regard to the profile of the workforce in such setting, the role of training and development, and training environment. |

An Economic Analysis Of Micro, Small And Medium Enterprises (MSMES) In Jammu And Kashmir. |
Author : Mudasir Ahmad And A. S. Bhat |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -There is a growing and worldwide appreciation that the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises play a catalytic role in the development process of most economies. This position gets reflected in the form of their increasing number and rising proportion in the overall product manufacturing, exports, manpower employment, technical innovations and promotion of entrepreneurial skills. The main objective of this paper is to make an analysis of the development of MSMEs in the Jammu and Kashmir. The MSMEs are studied in terms of change in the number of enterprises and employees, type of organization, nature of activity, women enterprises and sickness. MSMEs provide more employment opportunities with less investment and can play a major role in solving Jammu and Kashmir's unemployment problem. More than ninety-one per cent of SSI/MSME units are proprietary concerns and has a mass entrepreneurial base. In Jammu and Kashmir, growth of women enterprises in SSI/MSME sector is remarkable. This is a positive sign of women empowerment and gender equity. However, the growth rate of sick units is more in Jammu and Kashmir than the All India level. Prevention of sickness and rehabilitation of sick SSI Units requires more attention while framing the future programs of MSMEs development. |

A Novel Method For Predicting Stock Price Using Fuzzy Classification System |
Author : N. Srinivasan And C. Lakshmi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Stock markets are complex. Resolving such complexity has been a dream for traders They have been in great need of powerful assistance in their financial decisions. Human capability in analyzing all the data has not been satisfactory, and traditional economic methods have not been promising . Stock price predictions suffer from two well known difficulties, i.e., the high dimensionality and non-stationary variations within the huge historic price data. The major concern of the study is to develop a system that can predict future prices in the stock markets by taking samples of past prices.Fuzzy modeling of high-dimensional systems is a challenging topic.. This paper presents a novel approach to overcome the 'fuzziness' in traditional price prediction methods using fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is used to determine the likelihood of incidents. Fuzzy logic is used to characterise consequences and then fuzzy set operations are used to combine the severity of consequences and likelihood of occurrence to calculate the price. The model elicits, from historical data price, some of the rules which govern the market, and shows that rules which are drawn from a particular stock are to some extent independent of that stock, and can be generalized and applied to other stocks regardless of specific time.. The advantage of the fuzzy approach is that it enables processing of vaguely defined variables, and variables whose relationships cannot be defined by mathematical relationships The fuzzy price prediction model presented in this paper is the first of its kind. The resulting fuzzy system generated by this method has the following distinct features: 1) the fuzzy system is quite simplified; 2) the fuzzy system is interpretable; and 3) the dependencies between the inputs and the output are clearly shown. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : The study investigated the strategies for inculcating creative problem solving to students with special needs in Nigerian universities through entrepreneurship education. A survey research design was adopted for the study. Three research questions were formulated to guide the study. 58 lecturers who teach special education served as the population and sample. A 24 item questionnaire titled Creative Problem Solving through Entrepreneurship Education Questionnaire (CPSEEQ) was developed by the researchers and used to elicit information from the respondents. Cronbach alpha reliability method was used to determine the internal consistency of (CPSEEQ) and it yielded a reliability estimate of 0.81. The findings of the study showed that though creative problem solving is an important component of entrepreneurship education, lecturers still stick with the old ideas and methods of teaching entrepeneurship theoretically. It was recommended that universities should move beyond the mere teaching of theories to providing the students with more hands on practice on solving societal problems right from the time they are still students. |

Vascular Development And Transition In The Seedling Of Lupinus Albus L. |
Author : Abdel-Fattah I. El-Shaarawi , Sawsan M. Abou-Taleb And Hind S. Mohamed |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Transverse sections made in seedling of lupine (Lupinus albus L.) were examined by light microscope to study the development and transition of the vascular system. Vascular transition occurred in the root. It started few centimeters below the soil surface, and completed at the basal (superior) end of the root. No rotation was observed during the transition of vascular tissues from exarch radial to endarch collateral arrangement, but the protoxylem elements differentiated gradually on the inner side of metaxylem. Although vascular transition is completed at the base of the root, the vascular system of the hypocotyl axis showed differential structure at the different levels of the hypocotyl. Development and course of the leaf traces indicate that there is continuity between the vascular system of the hypocotyl and that of the epicotyl. Regardless the phase of transition; the fascicular cambium was established between the primary phloem and metaxylem.The development and activity of interfascicular cambium varied to some extent according to the level of seedling axis. |

US Foreign Policy Towards Africa In A Post - Cold War Era |
Author : Alka Mudgal |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : ’The collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of cold war caused the earlier bipolar world to be unipolar. The change resulted in a substantial shift in US interests from Africa to formerly Soviet states of Eastern Europe which was evidenced by drastic reduction in US bilateral aid to Africa. After the end of the cold war, US main concern was to establish its hegemony. With the focus on democratization, human rights and neo-liberal economic reforms, United States was prepared to cut off ties with those African states which were not abiding by these conditions. Democracy and human rights were not new to the US foreign policy. Provisions of Section 116 of the 1961 Foreign Assistance Act prohibited the President from providing development aid to the government of any country which is involved in a violation of internationally recognized human rights. The 1976 Congressional Foreign Assistance Act has also been an indicator of US' respect for human rights and fundamental freedom across the world. |

Author : Mahendra Kumar Singh And Arvind Bahadur Singh |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Today modernization has made human life easier as most of the work is performed by the machines. The sedentary life style of man has reduced the efficiency of humans. The less working capacity of humans has caused many problems like weakness, illness, chronic diseases, etc. In past our ancestors were quite healthy and fit. The big reason was that they had to perform a lot of hard physical activity like running, walking, jumping etc. The level of physical fitness varies from person to person. It depends upon the nature of work, size, shape, structure, age, sex and adaptability of an individual. Different games require different levels of physical fitness depending upon the type of activity, event, games and sports. Physical fitness requires efficient motor mechanism (movement of body), efficient organic mechanism (physiological functioning) and efficient mental functioning (psychological set-up). Sixty subjects were selected from different Sports Club, Sports Academy and Shopkeeper from Bilaspur District, Chhattisgarh as sources of data. The purposive sampling method was applied to select 20 swimmers, 20 athletes and 20 Sedentary People for this study. The physiological variables were Hemoglobin percentage, Pulse Rate and Exhale capacity and Physical fitness variable were Arm and Shoulder Strength, Abdominal Strength, Explosive Strength, Agility, Endurance and Speed for this study. Result showed that there is significant difference in exhale capacity, Physical Fitness except hemoglobin percentage of swimmers, athlete and sedentary subjects. |

Author : Sanjay Kanti Das And A. Ibemcha Chanu |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : India's Self Help Group (henceforth SHG) movement has emerged as the world's largest and most successful network of Community Based Organisations (CBOs). Today, there are several agencies working for SHG promotion in the country. The reasons for such spectacular growth of SHG movement in general and SHG banking in particular are many. However, quality is the major challenge that the SHG movement is confronted with at this point of time in the country. Effort is given in this paper to review the existing literature on the issue of quality assessment of SHGs followed by different stakeholders of SHGs and also to determine a common scale to determine quality parameters of SHGs. In 2003, Sa-Dhan undertakes similar effort in this context. In brief, the main objective of this paper is to review the quality assessment procedure and parameters to be considered for assessing the quality of SHGs. Initially, Sa-Dhan has identified 14 items concerning 8 conceptual subscales (based on common consciousness of all major stakeholders of SHGs) which determine quality parameters of SHGs. The present scale is consisted of 61 items concerning 8 conceptual subscales to assess the perception of direct stakeholders on quality parameters of SHGs. |

Background Subtraction for Dynamic Texture Scenes Using Local FCH features With Adaptive Updating Procedure |
Author : Swarupa Kanna And N.Satyanarayana Murthy |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : : Background subtraction is a very popular approach for vehicle detection in traffic surveillance systems. A conventional color histogram (CCH) considers neither the color similarity across different bins nor the color dissimilarity in the same bin. Therefore, it is sensitive to noisy interference such as illumination changes and quantization errors. Furthermore, CCHs large dimension or histogram bins requires large computation on histogram comparison. However, structured motion patterns of the background (e.g., Vehicular traffic videos, waving leaves, spouting fountain, rippling water, etc.), which are distinctive from variations due to noise, are hardly tolerated in this assumption. To address these concerns, we introduce a background subtraction algorithm for temporally dynamic texture scenes. Specifically, we propose to adopt a clustering-based feature, called fuzzy color histogram (FCH), which has an ability of greatly attenuating color variations generated by background motions while still highlighting moving objects. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is effective for background subtraction in dynamic texture scenes using LFCH features with adaptive updating procedure compared to several competitive methods proposed in the literature. |

Author : Rajwanti Sharma |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Working capital is the life blood and nerve center of business. Working capital is very essential to maintain smooth running of a business. No business can run successfully without an adequate amount of working capital. Liquidity functions of a firm are related to the working capital management. Working capital management is concerned with the problems that arise in attempting to manage the current assets, the current liabilities and the interrelationship, that exists between them. The term current assets refer to those assets which in the ordinary course of business can be, or will be, converted into cash within one year without undergoing a elimination in value and without disrupting the operations of the firm. The major current assets are cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable and inventory. Current liabilities are those liabilities which are intended, at their inception, to be paid in the ordinary course of business, within a year, out of the current assets or earning of the concern. The basic current liabilities are accounts payable, bills payable, bank overdraft and outstanding expenses. The goal of working capital management is to manage the firm's current assets and liabilities in such a way that a satisfactory level of working capital is maintained. This is so because if the firm cannot maintain a satisfactory level of working capital, it is likely to become insolvent and may even be forced into bankruptcy |

Impact Of Ict In Information Literary On Society |
Author : Niraj T. Khobragade |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Information now plays a vital part in the lives of individuals, organizations and institutions and information literacy is the key to the optimum use of information. In spite of the vital importance of literacy in terms of its benefits for individuals, communities and nations, a vast number of people remain illiterate. While progress has been made over the past 60 years towards achieving universal literacy, the poorest and most marginalized groups of people have yet to be reached. In 1958, in an attempt to provide a simple definition that would enable the comparison of international data on literacy levels, the united Nations Educational, Scientific and cultural Organization (UNESCO) defined a literate person is, one who can “read and write, with understanding, a short simple statement about his or her everyday life” 1. According to this view of literacy, people were divided into two distinct categories: literate and illiterate. Later, recognition of the diversity of needs of learners led to the identification of a range of literacy levels. Following this shift, assessment of literacy focused on determining whether people have a level of literacy adequate for their needs. It became clear that literacy campaigns must be more than merely about the acquisition of technical skills and need to also take into account the context and motivations of learners. This new understanding of literacy led to the idea of “functional literacy”. A definition for this was suggested in 1978 as follows: “A person is functionally literate who can engage in all those activities in which literacy is required for effective functioning of his (or her) group and community and also for enabling him (or her) to continue to use reading, writing and calculations for his own and the community's development.” |

Author : A. Jyothi And K. B. Hema |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : India is undergoing rapid nutritional transition, resulting in excess consumption of calories, saturated fats, simple sugars, salt and low intake of fiber. Such dietary transition and a sedentary lifestyle have led to an increase in obesity and diet related non-communicable diseases like cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder where the body cannot utilize the glucose partially or completely. Diet plays a major role in controlling diabetes. Carbohydrates are one of the three main nutrients in the diet, the others being protein and fat. The main objective of the study is to establish the effect of split breakfast and consuming foods which are low in GI helps lowering Postprandial Blood Sugar (PPBS) levels. Jenkins D.J et al.,(1981) An important priority for food and meal planning is the total amount of carbohydrates that the person with diabetes chooses to have for meals or snacks. Meal timing, correct portion sizes and healthy food choices are the keys to controlling blood sugar levels. Keeping this in view the present study was conducted on diabetic subjects whose PPBS level is very high due to irregular meal pattern. Diet counseling on the importance of split breakfast, was given. Minimizing carbohydrate at breakfast and shifting it to the mid morning snack, selecting low GI foods showed a positive impact in controlling PPBS Levels the above study revealed that there is a significant decrease in the PPBS levels in those, who followed split breakfast. Hence it can be concluded that adequate intake of carbohydrate and split breakfast has impact on PPBS peak. |

A Geographical Analysis Of Spatio - Temporal Variation In Cropping Intensity & Concentration Of Irrigated Crops In Dhule & Nandurbar Districts (ms). Nandurbar Districts (ms). |
Author : B.D.Patil |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -Cropping intensity means the ratio of Net Area Sown to the Gross Cropped Area. There are only two ways to satisfy the increasing food and other agricultural demands of country's rising population; either expanding the net area under cultivation or intensify cropping over the existing area. The net sown area of the country has risen by about 20 % since independence and has reached a point where it is not possible to make any appreciable increase. Thus; raising the cropping intensity is the only viable option left. Thus, higher cropping intensity means that a higher portion of the net area is being cropped more than once during one agriculture year. During triennium of 1991-93, the index of intensity of cropping for the study area as a whole is 107.65 per cent. Shirpur tahsil has the highest cropping intensity of 15.46 per cent, followed by Akkalkuwa 110.09 per cent and Taloda tahsil 110.39 per cent. During 2001–03, index of cropping intensity were 104.27 per cent. Shahada tahsil has the highest cropping intensity of 107.96 per cent, followed by Shindkheda tahsil 106.38 per cent and Shirpur tahsil 104.60 per cent. It shows declined in cropping intensity during investigation period. In general, higher the crop concentration index, higher is the level of interest in the production of that crop. Here only those irrigated crops have been analyse whose index value is 1.00 and more than 1.00 for the period of triennium 2001-03. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Accordingly to the Indian Partnership Law, a partnership is the relationship between persons who have agreed to share the profits of a business carried on by all or any of them acting for all. The Income Tax Law1 in India recognizes a general partnership firm as a separate tax entity for charge of income tax on the income of the firm. A general partnership firm is eligible for deduction of payments to its partners which includes remuneration paid to its working partners based on book profits of the firm and interest paid to the partners on the amounts invested by them in the business of the firm subject to maximum specified limits. While calculating the taxable income of the individual partners, the amount of remuneration and interest so allowed as a deduction to the firm is taxable as income in the hands of the individual partners of firm. |

Tribal Development Through Institutional Arrangement: A Case Study Of Daringbadi Block, Odisha |
Author : Banamali Montry |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Ever since the formulation of Indian Constitution, special emphasis has been laid on the development of Scheduled Tribes and Scheduled Castes in India. An exhaustive review of nearly sixty years of planned effort to develop the scheduled tribes from their subsistence economy to a self-sufficient standard of living through a variety of development programs under tribal sub plan approach brings out a very dismal picture about the successfulness of the governmental programs at the macro level. The increased investment and change induced by numerous tribal development programs have helped the tribals but marginally, which is neither in commensurate with the needs of the tribals on the one hand and the money spent on the other. While the unsatisfactory performance of tribal development programs in the past have been mainly due to inadequate appreciation of general apathy towards problems of tribal people and their areas but the unresponsive institutional arrangements, indifferent and inefficient administrative system and the manner in which it implements or administers the development programs, the personnel and the role they play in tribal development, misuse of given funds, lack of proper understanding of tribal culture, their social structure, customs, traditions and values together have contributed to such failure. With this perspective in mind the present study was carried out in Daringbadi block of kandhamal district of Odisha by taking it as a case study during the conduction of the research study on “Tribal Development Through Institutional Arrangement in Daringbadi block, Kandhamal District, Odisha. The main objective of the study was to explore the dynamics of tribal development institutions and programs so as to find out the forces and factors that affect the functioning of the institutions and programs either helping or hindering the process of development. The study was carried out to examine various important segments of the programmes being implemented by the Government to provide an insight whether the programmes are being executed on the desired lines. While the analysis of the issues presented above was made on the basis of primary data collected from the field from a variety of respondents, a critical analysis of the approaches and policies and plains and programs was made on the basis of the secondary data collected from a variety of sources. The structure and processes of tribal development administration were analysed in the specific context of block, district as well as state of Odisha. Some of the findings of the study has been presented in this article. |

Internet Usage Among Post Graduate Students In Coimbatore District |
Author : T. Enok Joel , S. Thangarajathi And T. Mary Ezhilarasi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -Everyone needs information about everything in day-to-day life. People, right from the organizational level to the personal level, from the highly educated and experienced person to school children, require information for taking the right decision for everything in life. Access to information is generally recognized as contributing significantly to the efficiency of any organization. In an era of networked information, 'internet', the largest worldwide network of networks, has emerged as the most powerful tool for instant access to information. Information is now just a 'finger touch' distance away from the user and it would be appropriate to say that the internet has become the global bibliotheque which provides the fastest access to the right kind of information in nano-seconds of time to the end-user at any time, and at any place in the world. Jackson, et al. (2011) remarked that internet plays an active role in education through its easy availability to everyone, everywhere, and at any time, irrespective of gender, race/ethnicity, income or other socio-demographic characteristics. Today, the internet is regarded as the central resource for knowledge and information. Thus, the Internet is a vital tool that will propel University and College education to greater heights as the world moves further into the knowledge-based society. With the sample 1151 final year post graduates have been taken for this study and stratified random sampling method was adopted. The objectives of the study were to find out the percentage of Internet Awareness and Internet Accessibility on Internet Usage among the post graduate students. Hence, the present study was aimed to study the internet usage among the post graduate students in Coimbatore District. |

Women Empowerment Through Self Help Groups In India |
Author : Ulvekar Yashwant H |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Poverty continues to be a major problem remaining a hurdle in the process of growth and development in developing and under developing countries. Among the human resources, Small farmers, Marginal farmers, Landless agricultural labors, Non-farm casual workers as well as Women and children's by and large constitute the majority of the poor. Out of 1.3 billion poor in the world, 900 million are poor women. (Kaushik Surendra k, Rengarajan V, 2010, p. 135). Actually women and men are equally important for the growth and development of individual and social lives. According to swami Vivekanand, “There is no chance for the welfare of the world unless the condition of women is improved. Ravindranath Tagore says that, “Women is the builder and nobler of nations destiny. Though delicate and soft as lily, she has a heart, for stronger and bolder than of man… She is supreme inspiration of man's onward march.”(Bharathmma G U, 2005, p-1) So, if the purpose of economic development is to improve life-style of people, to annihilate poverty, to render business with respect, so the kind of development should always start with women, it is most acceptable. Because more than others women become victim of poverty, unemployment, social and economic disparity as well as poverty and hungriness are more important to women than men. (Mahumod Yunus, 2007, p-132). |

Structure Prediction Of Neuronal Per- Arnt- Sim (b-hlh-pas) Protein- Npas4 Using Insightii And Modeller 9.11, A Homology Based Approach And A Comparative Study Of The Results. |
Author : Akhil Jobby , Satish Chandra Verma And Gess Thoms Xavier |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -The neuronal pas domain protein 4 (npas4) is a neuronal activity dependant gene that has recently been identified as a transcription factor which regulates the transcription of genes that control inhibitory synapse development and synaptic plasticity. The role of npas4 is in learning and memory, however 3D structure of npas4 is unknown . The prediction of protein structure from purely sequenced data and improvement of homology modelling tools has benefited in modelling novel proteins. Hence, this approach was used to model the structure of unmodelled protein npas4. Here the protein structure was built manually, following each steps from alignment to loop modelling to refinement using insight II. Another homology modeling tool, Modeller 9.11 was used to compare the results from Insight II. It was concluded that model from Modeller 9.11 produced a better model when compared to Insight II due to the manual approach in Insight II when compared to automatic modelling in Modeller 9.11. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : The study investigated teachers' emotional intelligence as a correlate of students' self-efficacy belief and achievement motivation in Enugu state, Nigeria. The design of the study was a Correlational descriptive survey. The population was 9121 Senior Secondary 11 (SS11) teachers and 20634 SS11 students in the (278) public secondary schools in Enugu State, Nigeria. Sample of 828 students and 116 teachers were drawn through simple random stratified and purposive sampling techniques. Four research questions and three hypotheses tested at 0.05 level of significance guided the study. Three instruments were used for data collection. One of the instruments was an eighteen-item questionnaire named Self Efficacy Questionnaire (SEQ) adapted from Sherer, Maddux, Mercandante, Prentice-Dunn, Jacobs and Rogers (1982). The second instrument was a 21-item researcher developed named students' achievement motivation scale (SAMS). The third was a 24-item instrument named Teachers' Emotional Intelligence Scale (TEIS), adapted from Winters (2013). The face validation of the instruments were assured by three experts in Educational foundations, University of Nigeria, Nsukka. Data for research question 1 was answered using mean and standard deviation, whereas data for research questions 2-4 were analyzed using pearson r and R-square. The hypotheses were tested using linear regression analysis at 0.05 level of significance. It was found that teachers' emotional intelligence significantly correlates with students' achievement motivation and self-efficacy belief. Based on the findings, of the study, the researchers recommended among others that, the government, ministry of education, school administrators and the employer of teachers should provide good working conditions such as a condicive staff room for adequately lesson preperation as this will help teachers to be motivated in their interaction with students and to reduce teacher attrition or frustration from the profession. |

A Study Of Students' Perception Of Teacher Effectiveness And School Effectiveness |
Author : K. Mohammed Basheer |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -Quality is the watchword of each and every field of life. Education has a vital role in molding a person. ' Survival of the fittest' has become a mantra of the globalized world. To get a better product, the quality of education should be strictly maintained. As the economy depends on its educated populace, quality education in the country is all that desired. While it has taken colossal efforts to increase the literacy rate, the results have been very significant. Quality education is very vital in shaping the future of millions of children and in turn the future of the nation. There for, quality education doesn't only target to provide literacy rate but the complete development of the children's personality. The objective of modern secondary education is to prepare the individual to participate in modern democratic society and, to develop the special abilities capabilities and to meet the needs and interest of each individual. In the attempt to achieve these objectives the curriculum has been broadened and enriched and new methods of instruction developed. Secondary schools must contribute to the development of habits attitudes and qualities of character should enable its citizens to bear worthily the responsibilities of democratic citizenship. The need for secondary education did gain some importance in India as seen in the NPE 1986, which stated, 'access to secondary education will be widened to cover areas unreserved by it at present' , though the implementation of which requires tedious efforts. Caught in between elementary and higher education stages ,the consideration for secondary education are quite different though at times less defined. No one can deny the roles of effective teacher and the effective school atmosphere in the process of quality education. This study will talk about the perception of secondary school students' on teacher effectiveness and School effectiveness. |

Production Of High Efficiency Insulators By Using Polymer Technology |
Author : K.Ravichandrudu , P.Suman Pramod Kumar and B.Hemanth Kumar |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : During the last decade, equipment connected to the electricity distribution network has evolved towards a widespread use of polymeric insulating aterials. Significant improvements have been gained with respect to porcelain-based insulators. On the technical side, sustained hydrophobicity, increased pollution resistance, lightweight, and resistance to vandalism, are some of the advantages. More on the economic side, increased reliability, along with ease of maintenance and storage, have all lead to relevant overall cost savings for the users, and to improved service quality and energy dependability for the final customers. The process, though, has not been extent of risks. The technology was rather new and the minimum requisites and quality criteria have not been fully understood until recently. It has been in the last five years that the need for specific testing and quality requirements have been definitely settled, based on more than 30 years of accumulated experience. This situation has facilitated market penetration of poorly designed, under-tested and under-performing equipment, which has in turn created uncertainties in users. This report is divided into three sections. The study has focused on those design tests that are specifically related to the polymeric nature of the isolating basis, and it was motivated by the large variability on quality and performance that has been detected in the market. |

Author : YANDAMURI HARIBABU AND V.V. NARASIMHA MURTHY |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : To improve the accuracy of speed and stabilization of the brushless direct current motor, a comprehensive analysis for the reason of electromagnetic torque ripples of BLDC motor with nonideal back electromotive force (EMF) drives in both the commutation and conduction regions is presented. A new automatic torque control method with a current control rule to control phase current is proposed. A new pulse width modulation technique “PWM_ON_PWM” scheme, which eliminates the diode freewheeling of inactive phase will be designed. The duty cycle of this PWM is regulated by measuring the wave function of back EMF. PI controller is used for speed regulation. Simulation results are given to show the comparison between HIGH_PWM_L_ON scheme and proposed PWM_ON_PWM scheme, the proposed method can reduce the torque ripple effectively and improve the stabilization and speed precision as well. |

Agricultural Performance And Policies In India-an Overview |
Author : Chandrakala Srivastava |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Indian agriculture plays a pivotal role in economic development of the country. This study has been undertaken with the objective of examining the performance and challenges of the Indian agricultural sector and to evaluate the programmes and policies of this sector. The agricultural sector has potential to create economic growth in rural areas by creating job opportunities in food processing industries by bringing agricultural products to the consumer and by providing support to service sector. In this paper the performance of agricultural sector has been analysed with supporting data. As per advance estimates released by CSO on February 2013, agriculture and allied sector are estimated to grow at 1.8% during 2012-2013 as against 3.6% during the last year. The agricultural export as a percentage of GDP increased from 1.6% in 2007-2008 to 2.2% in 2011-2012. The agricultural imports as a percentage of GDP also increased from 0.9% to 1.3%. Frequent changes in export policy measures create a situation of uncertainty and undermine credibility of the country as a reliable source of agricultural products for exports. The government has launched a number of programmes for increasing production of agricultural commodities. For the past decade the performance of agricultural sector has not been impressive. We need policies for crop diversification generation of non farm opportunities in rural areas and development of agro-based industries. Some more policies have been suggested. There is a growing concern for launching a second green revolution in the country |

Hydro-meteorological Aspect Of Climate Change On Natural Hazards With Proposed Adaptation And Mitigation Strategies In North-western India |
Author : Sandeep Kumar and Santosh |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Climate change is generally defined as the long term significant change in the average weather condition of a specific region or zone over an appropriately significant period of time. The fourth assessment report th of IPCC reported that the average global temperature has increased by 0.6°C over 20 century and projected will be 1.8-4.0°C by 2100s (IPCC, 2007). The globally averaged surface temperature is projected to increase by 1.4°C to 5.8°C over the period 1990 to 2100 (IPCC, 2013). Conclusion of various studies shows that the surface temperature in India was increased with considerable regional variations i.e. 0.5 to 0.6°C during 1901-2005 and the projected will be 2-5°C by 2100s. Climate change, whether driven by natural or human activities, can lead to changes in the likelihood of the occurrence or strength of extreme weather and climate events. The weather pattern have become more extreme, with more frequent and more intense in rainfall events, subsequent floods and prolonged droughts i.e. the intensity and frequency of hydro-meteorological hazards has increased. Climate change has the potential to impact the hydrological cycle and subsequently the hydro-meteorological disasters. The vulnerability and associated risks in North-Western parts of India are increasing as over 90% of natural disasters in this region are hydro-meteorological in origin. The paper highlights the climate change and its impact on hydro-meteorological hazards in NW India. The paper also suggest various mitigation and adaptation strategies to cope with impacts of climate change on hydro-meteorological disasters such as capacity building and increasing resiliency among vulnerable communities along with adoption of sustainable development approach. |

Author : Dimple |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : Globalization forces countries to open their market for foreign investors. As business crosses the boundaries, there arises a need for some commonly accepted and applicable financial reporting standards for the companies. Now as the world globalize, it has become imperative for India to make a format strategy for convergence with IFRS with the objective to harmonize with globally accepted accounting standards. But to cope with convergence of Indian accounting standards with IFRS, we need to address several regulatory and institutional issues which might impede smooth transition to IFRS. This paper is an attempt to explore the regulatory and institutional issues needing immediate attention of policy makers and to make some recommendation to withstand this challenge. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : A rose is still a rose even when it loses a petal. A tree may lose some leaves, but it is still useful. Likewise, a human being can still be useful despite the loss of a physical faculty. Helen Keller says that the most unfortunate person in society is one who has sight but no vision. In order to understand the abilities of person with disabilities, one needs to have a broad vision of humanistic values. An inclusive society needs the support of parents, teachers, professionals and other community members. The term differently abled chidren has replaced disabled children, because each individual is bestowed with some or the other potentialities. But, to understand the concept of disability the definition given by the American Heritage Dictionary of English Language can be examined, “a disadvantage or deficiency, especially a physical or mental impairment that interferes with or prevent normal achievement in a particular area or something that hinders or incapacitates”. The present paper tries to find out the population of disabled people in India in different disability categories. A mention of disability services in India during pre independence era, post independence era, DPEP. It is well known fact that the schools have an important role to play for training of differently abled children and the onus is rested with the government to take up new initiatives. The schemes like SSA have played an important role for education of this group in the present times. The paper attempts to explore services improvement of integrated education taken up under SSA and attempts to give objectives, scope, and intervention etc. This will be of great help for policy makers and planner as they are working for universalisation of elementary education, which could not be attend without educating this group. |

Republic In Shakespeare's ' The Tempest ‘ |
Author : Pradnyashailee Bhagwan Sawai And Rajesh Wamanrao Shrikhande |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -'The Tempest' is believed to have been written by Shakespeare late in the Year 1610 and is regarded as Shakespeare's last complete play. One of the pleasant characters of the piece is Gonzalo, the witty and loyal courtier. There is nothing heroic about him. He would not refuse to carry out the design against Prospero and Miranda which was entrusted to his execution, but made a compromise with his natural Kindness of heart by doing them a timely service and the same kindness is seen in his efforts to comfort Alonso. Forgiveness and freedom are the keynotes of the play and Gonzalo is an honest old counsellor who cherishes the dream of republic. His dream of Republic comprises of establishment of an ideal society. A society in which there would be no work to be done by anybody, and in which there would be no industry, no agriculture, no crime, no wealth and no poverty. Further in his Republic there would be no need for the use of swords or daggers or guns or any other weapons of war. All the men and women would be idle, and the women would be innocent and pure. There would be no sovereignty. Gonzalo's description of his ideal Republic is certainly absurd. |

Financial Crises, Post Autistic Movement- Rethinking Economics |
Author : Roopa Patavardhan |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract : -'Economists' have been targeted for their unrealistic models which failed to predict the arrival of crisis and also which failed to reduce the aftermath of such crises, since early 20th century, be it the Great Depression of 1930s or the recent Global Financial Crisis of 2008. Research being undertaken in Economics, plus the way in which the subject is taught in Universities and put into to practice by the professional 'Economists' are being severely criticised from all possible corners of the civic society. One such major criticism movement was initiated by students from Universities of France, which was famously known as Post –Autistic Movement, in June 2000 by broadcasting an Open Letter addressing the Professors and those responsible for teaching. The sources of their discontentment were the uncontrolled use of mathematics, unrealistic assumptions and the imaginary world in the discourse of Economics. So in this background, an attempt has been made in this paper to document these recent developments in the field of Economics. The paper is structured in three sections. The first section will cover the introduction, financial crisis and evolution of consequent economic thoughts, followed by a brief note on the important issues aroused in Post Autistic Movement in the second section; further in the third and last section article will be concluded stating the need for re-thinking economics through a multidisciplinary approach in studying economics. This paper is one of the amateur documents and maiden attempt in Indian economic literature which is believed to be 'Food for Thought' for researchers and academicians. |
