Decentralization or decentralisation is the process of redistributing or dispersing functions, powers, people or things away from a central location or authority. While centralization, especially in the governmental sphere, is widely studied and practiced, there is no common definition or understanding of decentralization. The meaning of decentralization may vary in part because of the different ways it is applied. Concepts of decentralization have been applied to group dynamics and management science in private businesses and organizations

India is a country of more than one billion people; the majority of people are from Hindus. However, we also have large populations of minorities, with about 150 million Muslims, making this country as the second largest Muslim population in the world, after Indonesia. There are also many millions of Christians, Sikhs, Jains and Buddhists. In recent decades, the conflict between religious communities (referred to as communalism in India) have grown substantially, and thousands of people have been killed in these religious conflicts. The future of India is bleak, if religious conflicts tear the democratic fabric away.

Education plays a very important role in the life of the human being and it is asset which nobody can steal. The children’s are also the wealth of the nation. If they properly cared and educated then nation becomes superpower nation in the world. At the childhood the young kids mind are like a clean state on which you can write whatever you want and it continues through his life. The schools for the children are breeding grounds for the great leader to take the birth. That’s why the quality basic education is very important. This is largely beneficial especially as compared to countries like China, Japan which has an ageing population. India also has one-third of the world’s illiterate population which are not good for India. The more efforts should be necessary that illiterates become literate.

Children with learning disability are usually present in every normal classroom. This has encouraged educators for modifications in their regular instructional techniques so as to cater the needs of these learners. Attitude towards science is an important factor for science learning. In order to enhance this attitude towards science among students with learning disability, two interventions i.e. Cooperative Learning and Differentiated Instruction were examined. This paper outlines the effect of these interventions on the attitude towards science of students with learning disability. 60 students with learning disability formed the sample for the study including 20 students each in two experimental groups and one control group. For the identification of the students with learning disability DTLD has been used. Researcher developed Scale for Attitude towards Science has been used to measure the attitude towards science. The data collected when analyzed, revealed that the students with learning disability have gained significantly from pre-test to posttest on their attitude towards science in both the cooperative learning and differentiated instruction groups.

India has a long history of caste based society. Caste is the building blocks of our society. Human being plays a pivotal role in the overall progress of a country. Acaste system is a social system in which one’s social position is given for a life. In caste societies, therefore, all individuals must remain at the social level of their birth throughout life. Prior to modern times, caste system was found throughout the world. In Europe, for example Jews were frequently treated as separate caste, forced to live in restricted neighborhoods and barred from inter marrying etc. The Indian caste system reflects Hindu religious beliefs and is more than 2,000 years old. According to Hindu beliefs there are four major caste i.e. Brahmins (scholars and spiritual leaders) on top and followed by the Ksyatriyas (soldiers and rulers), the Vaisyas (farmers and merchants), and the Shudras (labourer and artisans). Beneath the four castes are those known as the untouchables or oppressed people, Dalits) who as their name suggests are to be avoided at all costs. In India, most of them are still limited to the worst jobs in society such as removing waste, human excretes etc. In traditional areas of India some members of higher castes still regards physical contact with untouchable to be so contaminating that a mere touch requires cleansing rituals. India made it illegal to discriminate on the basis of caste in 1949 but aspects of the system remain in full force today. The author of the paper has tried to peep into the glorious past of our country and trace the status of scheduled castes in ancient society.

“Creative problem solving is looking at the same thing as everyone else and thinking something different.” -Albert Szent-Gyorgi Creativity as a concept has different meanings and interpretations for different people. It is a construct not easy to define because it is a multi-faceted phenomenon. At one place Guilford observed, ‘Creativity’ like love is a many splendored things. Agreeing substantially with Guilford, Mackinnon (1970) explains, many are the meanings of creativity, for most it demotes the ability to bring something new into existence while novel and valuable products are fashioned. For still others, creativity is not the process but the product. Definitions of creativity range all the way from the notion that creativity is simple problem solving to conceiving it as the full realization and expression of an individual’s unique potentialities. Such creativity properly carries all these meanings and many more besides. It is indeed a multi-faceted phenomenon. However, despite the fact that concept of creativity is so amorphous it is also highly useful.

Freedom of press or media is very important for political liberty and proper functioning of democracy. As everyone has a right of speech and expression so does media have. Democracy can thrive not only under vigilant eye of its legislature, but also under the care and guidance of public opinion and the media is par excellence, the vehicle through which opinion can become articulate. Media is meant for the society, it works in such a way to bring truth in front of public. Media is considered as the eye, ear and mouth of the public. The press which is called media now days obtains its power from the constitution. Freedom of speech and expression is an integral part of democracy. A democratic country in the world cannot deny freedom of speech and expression. If we focus on in the Indian constitution article 19(1)(a) is freedom of speech and expression from where media obtains its power. In this article, an evaluation about the freedom of media in Indian democracy has been made.

Employee Engagement is not a new concept and its effect has been manifesting itself even in olden days when managements and employees came together. But this concept attracted the attention of research scholars and management experts only in the recent periods, particularly after the advent of the concept of rationalization of commercial or industrial operations in the large scale. Again, this concept got currency and publicity among research scholars in particular only after 1990 when Kahn conceptualised it and explained its ramifications. Much has been studied and written by different authors and research scholars since then and the imperative need of ensuring employees-management relations has been proved beyond doubt not only for “employees satisfaction but also for customers? satisfaction. Among the different factors leading to Employee Engagement aspect, attraction and retention hold the key. The main factor which motivates employees to continue in any organisation is a healthy environment in which they work and this depends on a variety of factors.

This paper argues that in the concept of Higher Education and Sustainable Development has a distinct character focusing Indian education system in 21th century. According to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization’s (UNESCO) Education is the basis for a Sustainable Development. It has become a social process of construction of a pedagogical object, plural, as full of contradictions as reality itself. The creation of an educational system which takes into consideration gender differences as well as differences among all sectors, whether it is formal or non formal education, to reach the non communicated communities, is considered as a fundamental element of Education for a Sustainable Development (ESD) for the last 40 years, Higher Education (EE) has played an important role in several discourses. For some, it has been more part of the problem than of the solution. Nevertheless, Education has become a source of inspiration for many of us. educators here in India, for instance, although doing different things and dealing with different needs, have been able to define strategies of pedagogical research, to build collective identities, to identify and share strategies to find common objectives and to persevere as we reach for them. In this way we considered many higher education indicators to educational sustainability in India.

In fibre-optic communication, a single-mode optical fibre (SMF) is an optical fibre designed to carry light only directly down the fibre - the transverse mode. Modes are the possible solutions of the Helmholtz equation for waves, which is obtained by combining Maxwells equations and the boundary conditions. These modes define the way the wave travels through space, i.e. how the wave is distributed in space.

In this paper, we have presented an overview of swarm intelligence applied to network routing. Inherent properties of swarm intelligence as observed in nature include: massive system scalability, emergent behavior and intelligence from low complexity local interactions, autonomy, and stigmergy, or communication through the environment. These properties are desirable for many types of networks. Swarm intelligent based approaches hold great promise for solving numerous problems of ad-hoc power aware networks. Swarm intelligence however is a new field and much work remains to be done. Comparison of the performance of swarm-based algorithms has been done by emulation.

Feminist criticism, basically,is a new trend of thinking about literature. This new wave is no longer a new wave and is common in recent times that every critic writes about feministic view of all possible literary works. So It has lostits ability to jolt readers and is acknowledged inside the critical tenet as a valued approach to literature. The history behind its success reminds one of what F.R. Lewis wrote in ‘Retrospect’ to New Bearings in English Literature. It illustrates how “when resistance to the new thing collapses, the 1 readjustment is affected and the world made safe again.”…

In this ever changing socio-economic, cultural, technological environment and mushroom growth of corporates and multinational companies it has become an herculean task to compete with the requirements of the customer which are of global standards and total quality management plays a prominent role to meet the day-today requirements of a common man with high standards. To overcome the deficiencies, companies gives the goods and services of high quality and this being the reason for total quality management.

Consumer protection has become a serious issue with the liberalization of Economic policies in India. The liberalization has opened the flood grades for the entry of big players from the world over into the country. The profit motive has surfaced as a major motive, leading to jettisoning the much avowed objective of giving prime importance to consumers interest. In the wake of such a situation, the issue would be who should take the responsibility of protecting the consumers. Should the protection of consumers be left to consumers only or to their organizations ? In the realm of the consumer protection, what should be the role of the state ? Should the protection of consumers be left to consumers only or to their organizations ? In the realm of the consumer protection, what should be the role of the state ? Should the state adopt a passive approach or reactive role or proactive role? The analysis of the data reveals that much more is required to be done by state governments.

Single crystals of strontium oxalate have been grown using gel method at ambient temperature. Thermal characteristics and kinetic parameters of strontium oxalate crystals were determined by thermo-gravimetric analysis (TG) under non-isothermal heating conditions. The pyrolysis experiments were performed with increasing 0 0 temperature up-to 600 C at heating rate of 5, 7 and 10 C in nitrogen gas atmosphere. The pyrolysis curve showed that 0 loss of mass took place mainly in the range of 250-360 C. At higher temperature there was a significant mass loss due to decomposition of oxalates. Ozawa and Coats & Redfern methods were used to determine the apparent activation energies of material degradation. The apparent activation energies for strontium oxalate crystal were obtained 220.42 and 230.53 KJ/mol for the respective methods.

When the earth was first created, the materials that it made were so hot from the contractions that formed the planet and from the heat generated by the core that the outer layers were mostly liquid. Over time, it slowly cooled, and a hard crust formed on the outer surface. This was much like the thin layer of ice that first forms over a pond when the temperature dips below freezing. And just as there is liquid under the layer of ice, there is still liquid magma flowing under the crust. As this happened, a cycle of events began to be put into place that causes changes in the rocks that exist on the earth. This cycle is known as the rock cycle. The rock cycle is a model used to describe the creation, alteration, and destruction of the rocks that form from magma.

For communicating the ideological symbol of Annaism, MGR has taken many pains. He has resorted to all known forms of mass communication efforts. In fact there are two effective audio techniques, monitored by him: (i) In all the public meetings, electioneering attempts, radio talks and television appearances. In the early years of the party, Annaism has strengthened it slowly, yet steadily and strongly. With the cherished goals of bringing in a clean administration and the unseating of the DMK Government, Annaism has taken up the following stages of action, to educate its own followers and common masses: (i) The first step was a process of creating consciousness among the masses to make them aware of the real defects in the organisation and administration of the DMK regime; (ii) The second step was the renunciation of the benefits of office among the followers of Anna, (iii) The third step was to restore a sense of confidence in the people, so that they can think, unite and move to make a new history for themselves; (iv) The fourth step was to explain to the people about their glorious past achieved by CNA; and (v) the fifth step was to create among the masses a desire for clean administration and sustain that desire by investing it for a political change. After obtaining power, Annaism has served the party in three important areas, viz., society, party and Government. Annaism reminds the leader and the party constantly about the milestones to be reached. It has made them conduct periodical elections within the party to maintain inner party democracy. The very same ideology has been the root for the various policies of day-to-day administration.
