The basis of this research is to study the impact of value added tax(vat)in India as well as across the India. The VAT is a tax on the final consumption of goods or services and is ultimately borne by the consumer although it is collected at every stage of production or distribution and a tax credit is granted at each stage for tax paid at the earlier stage in the chain of transfer sale of goods or services till it reaches the final consumer. It is chargeable at every point of sale/transfer of goods and services. The mechanism of VAT is quite simple and easy to understand. The states, who have not yet implemented the VAT, have to understand the problems being faced by the trading community at large and should implement the VAT as quickly as possible so as to reduce the concerns of trade. This would pave the way for initiating the steps for the introduction of the GST in a near future. it would be necessary to initiate the steps for ensuring a uniform value added tax law across the country which would then pave the wave for implementation of a common GST across the country

In this era of globalization, the prerequisites for the success of a person are inextricably dependant on effective communication skills and technical know how. It is often observed that, most of the Indian graduates with good technical knowledge and credentials fail to use English proficiently owing to inadequate or ill equipped methods of teaching/learning English in India. Therefore, Indian education system with special reference to language, needs remarkable changes in order to meet the global demands. Teachers of English should move beyond the academic functional English syllabus and start providing multiple content-rich, high standard, interactive curriculum that prepares ESL students to become not only academically successful but also professionally competitive individuals. This article discusses critical needs for implementing a Content-rich, Context-based and Task Based ESL curriculum (CRCBTBC) in English as a second language class for undergraduate students in India. The article also focuses on a theoretical framework that provides rationale for (CRCBTBC) and also provides methods to implement it.

Herbal medicines have been a part of human life through the past centuries. At present, there are many types of plants discovered which possess medicinal properties. Tridax Procumbens is one of the most common plants used by rural and tribal communities to cure various health ailments. This plant contains a large number of medicinal compounds which are useful for further studies. But some toxic compounds are also present in it which is harmful for human lives and their separation and identification from the leaves extract is very important. These compounds are Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids. Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids are a group of naturally occurring alkaloids based on the structure of Pyrrolizidine. Its identification from the Ethanol+ Deionized water extract can be done through TLC using Ehrlich reaction method of mattocks. Then after the identification of Pyrrolizidine alkaloids through TLC, we got its spectra by the help of IR Spectroscopy

To discover one's true nature is self - realization and this is equivalent to true freedom. The process of self - realization involves mastery over one's nature. Bhagvad Gita and its Karma philosophy regard self - realization or enlightenment as the ultimate goal in a man's life, although the methods for the attainment of this goal may vary from man to man. Soul i.e. Atman acquires harmony with the Supreme Soul or almighty who is Paramatma or God. The unambiguous identification of soul is vibrantly hypothesized in the various schools of Indian philosophy. The aim of life as conceived in the Upanishads and other holy scriptures is to overcome ignorance - by attaining full enlightenment or Gyana. Prof. M. Hiriyani also sums up this essence and pith of Indian philosophy as:

'Providing safe drinking water to all' is incorporated as one of the millennium development goals adopted by United Nations. After certain delay in realizing the necessity of having national policy on water, India framed its first water policy in 1987, subsequently on 2002 and 2012. Discourses emerged out of the policies, institutions or legislations on water are; river water dispute, water for agriculture and industrial purposes, water pollution, water conservation, water management etc has got its place and priority. But, there is no matter of differences in accepting these issues are of national significance. Privatisation or commodification of water is the manifestation of Neo-liberal Policy. However, such privatization process was simultaneously or even before the incorporation of its agenda is identified to be started and grown in Indian Social Scenario.

Suicide Victim Farmers were more in the age group of 30 to 44 (37 %), followed by 15 to 29 years (27 %). The reasons for suicides are multifold the important causes for suicides in India in general are 1) family Problems, 2) prolonged Illness, 3) insanity and 4) love affairs. The important reasons for farms suicides are 1) Indebtedness 2) Crop failure and low return 3) Illness of family members 4) Inability to arrange finance for marriage of daughter 5) Lack of income –earning opportunities from subsidiary occupations 6) Inadequate facility for value addition to agriculture produce.

India and the EU have expanded their bilateral economic and investment ties significantly in the last decade or so. As a result of closer ties, the EU has emerged as a very important destination for various types of cross-border flows from India. In addition to the growing movement of professionals and students, there has also been a marked rise in cross-border flows of tourists between India and the EU. Given the economic and strategic significance of promoting tourism flows for fostering bilateral relations, this paper attempts to map the tourism flows between India and a selected few EU countries and also examine their relative significance as destinations or sources. The consequences for service quality constitute one of the main ethical and practical problems confronting the international tourism industry as it moves towards the next millennium.

-This paper reviews the trends of Fertilizer subsidies and its impact on agricultural production in Karnataka. Increasing production is the talk of the day which is one of the ways and means for the economic development of the country. The significant increase in agricultural production depends largely up on employment of new technology. The main theme of study is to know as to is subsidies be increased or abolished or targeted. To justify the above statement with restrict of subsidies, following issues need to be explored and replied. First one is are subsidies the best way to achieve the intended objectives of growth, employment and investments. Second one is if yes, then how long the subsidies should be continued to meet its objectives. Thirdly what is the overall long term cost of these subsidies in the entire economy. Lastly are subsidies going to promote regional equity and allocate efficiency at the national level. These are all the basic questions raised and discussed in this study. Input subsidies going to agricultural sector has an important issue for debate in the context of reducing the fiscal deficit and bringing in production efficiency. Agricultural sector has significantly higher level of state intervention in the product as well as factors markets. It cannot be hypothesized that the minimum support prices and issue prices have no influence on the market prices of agricultural produce in the product market. The new economic policy initiated in response to economic crisis of early nineties necessitated push up in the growth performance and reduction in production inefficiencies. The present study addresses to this very process of reforms.

In this paper an impact of electrification on land use pattern of sample farmers has been studied. The present study is limited to the survey of Khatav Tahasil only. This research is restricted only to study the impact of electrification on land use pattern in the Khatav Thesil. The total area of selected sample farmers prior to electrification was 969 acres, out of which 2.47% area comes under permanent pastures and grazing lands, 1.65% area comes under the current fallows and 95.87% area comes under net sown. Total area of all sample farmers has remained same after electrification. There is a change in net cultivated area only. Out of total area (969 acres) 0.20% area comes under permanent pastures & grazing land, 0.30% area comes under current fallows and 99.48% area comes under net cultivated. In general, it can be seen that the area under permanent pasture & grazing and current fallows has decreased after electrification. On the other hand area under net sown or cultivated has increased after electrification. Before electrification 6.78% area was irrigated and 93.21% area was non-irrigated but after electrification irrigated area has increased up to 20.43% and non-irrigated area has gone down to 79.56%. Electrification is helpful in changing the land use pattern and also helpful in the growth of irrigation facilities and increases the area under irrigation of selected sample farmers in Khatav Tahasil. As per expectation, use of electricity leads to expansion of irrigated area and ultimately it leads to more output and more employment opportunities in agricultural sector.

It should be clear from our discussion thus far that sustaining India's economic growth and outward orientation, and ensuring the sustainability of that process, became an important driving element shaping Indian foreign policy. The key objectives were market access, energy security and access to high technology. These objectives gained greater salience in the context of the rise of Asian economics, and the consequent competition for markets and resources. The energy security objective became even more important in the context of global fears pertaining to global warming and climate change. Against this background, we should expect Singh to take a pro-active stance in dealing with the consequence of the global financial crisis and economic slowdown. He stated that this remains his top 1 priority.

Indian leather has bright prospects of exports and foreign exchange earning. But in the hindsight the fact that the very nature of this industry is pollution intensive has made this sector heterogeneous. This theory has been very well proved by Copeland and Taylor (2004) which states that “under free trade between developed countries and the developing countries, the exports of dirty industry increases in the developing countries as a result of higher production and consequential impact on environment of the developing country”. It is with this background of heterogeneity prevailing in the sector and also the fact that “Greening and sustainability” has become a compulsion for any industry irrespective of size and nature nowadays, this research paper has been prioritized. The paper reviews the various sustainable methods and practices in the Indian leather sector. Also an attempt is made to identify the cross country changes as a result of this. The study is carried out with the aid of secondary data available in the form of thesis, dissertations, study reports (private and government), research papers, working papers and articles available in either print form or online.

The present study reflects grim groundwater scenario and its mitigation strategies in Sikar district. Low rainfall–arid climate, frequent droughts and famine conditions, less availability of surface water and lack of water education are the causative factors for water crisis in Sikar district. In Sikar, owing to meager surface water resources, groundwater is only source of dependence and survival. Irrigation, industrial and drinking water supply are based on groundwater resources. In fact this has created the problem of depletion and deterioration of groundwater level and its quality. Therefore, for mitigating the challenges of groundwater depletion many efforts must be made for maximum utilization of rain water, revival of traditional water wisdom, afforestation, augmentation of groundwater, dry farming, promotion of sprinkler and drip irrigation and defluoridation plants.

Political participation is a voluntary participation in political affairs through membership and partaking in the activities of the political parties, legislative bodies and politically motivated movements. Political participation is a political right of both men and women but still when it comes to women it has always been a debatable issue during the freedom movement, Mahatma Gandhi awakened the political consciousness of the poor, illiterate Indian women and thus they took active part in the freedom struggle in large numbers. But after independence the political picture has been very shocking with very less participation of women in political sphere compared to their total strength of the total population. Higher is the political institution , lesser is their strength. Women's participation in politics makes the democratic system more efficient and viable. But as a matter of fact women have been marginalised politically in our country and has to confined within the four wall of their household. In the context of Assam also the picture is same as the rest of the country. Although the position and status of women in our society is comparatively good as compared to the other parts of the country yet women too in this part of India has been marginalised in political arena. This paper will mainly highlight the low political status of women in the state.

This article describes the most important environmental impacts of cement mining Cement industry caused environmental pollution problems, and the pollutants of the cement industry produced the adverse impact on air water and land. Cement industry is the one of the 17 most pollutant industries listed by central pollution control board. During the last decades the emission of dust from cement factories has been increased alarmingly due to expansion of more cement plant to meet the requirement of cement materials for construction of building. In comparison with gaseous air pollutant many of which are readily recognized as being the cause of injury to various type of vegetation. Increasing concentration of cement dust pollutant causes in visible injuries like progressive decline in physiological process such as photosynthetic ability and respiration rate of leaves. Similarly visible injury such as reduction in growth and productivity were observed due to cement dust (Raajasubramanian et al., 2011). Satao et al. (1993) also reported that due to cement dust decreased the productivity and concentration of chlorophyll in number of crops. Cement dust are potentially harmful to the environment. The direct effects of the cement dust pollution are alkalization of the ecosystem and the changing of the chemical composition of the soil. The pollutant particles can enter the soil as dry, humid or occult deposits and can undermine the physicochemical properties. Hence contaminated soil can adversely affect plant survival and growth (Addo et al., 2013).

Stress has gotten noteworthy because of element social component and changing needs of life styles.

The logistics industry in India is evolving rapidly and it is the interplay of infrastructure, technology and new types of service providers that will define whether the industry is able to help its customers reduce their logistics costs and provide effective services (which are also growing). Changing government policies on taxation and regulation of service providers are going to play an important role in this process. Coordination across various government agencies requires approval from multiple ministries and is a road block for multi modal transport in India. At the firm level, the logistics focus is moving towards reducing cycle times in order to add value to their customers. Consequently, better tools and strategies are being sought by firms in order to enhance their decision making. In this paper, we provide a perspective on these issues, outline some of the key challenges with the help of secondary information, and describe some interesting initiatives that some firms & industries are taking to compete through excellence in managing their logistics.

The term 'Discourse analysis' originated in the early 1970, constituting many disciplines such as linguistics, rhetoric, Semiotics, Cultural anthropology, Sociology and other a variety of new interdisciplinary research fields. From its beginning this term attracted the attention of scholars in the field of linguistics and applied linguistics as it is mainly deal with the study of relationship between language and 1 context in which it is used. Cook defines Discourse as a 'language in use' Therefore 'Discourse analysis' not only has theoretical value, but it has an important application value. The main target of' Discourse analysis' is to achieve certain communicative purpose between the speaker and listener. It includes structure of the language, idea, writing, articulation, vocabulary, grammar, and most importantly the use of speech –act theory for students, to enhance student's language learning capacity. This paper is an attempt to thrash out the practical application of 'Discourse analysis' in the English classroom by the English teacher to make English class room effective.

Girls form a deprived section of our society specifically in rural India. They suffer from favouritism even at the hands of their mothers. Be it education or food or any other basic necessity, they are given a low priority even today. Because of this deprivation and added responsibilities in the family, the girls do not achieve their full potential. It is well established that the nutritional status of adolescent girls, the future mothers, contributes significantly to the nutritional status of the community. Against this background, the present study was conducted in a degree college of Haryana in March, 2014 to explore the current nutritional status of 130 young girls between 18-23 years of age. The nutritional status assessment was undertaken by using two techniques i.e. Anthropometric Measurement and Biomedical Impedance. In Anthropometric Measurement mainly three aspects: Height, Weight and BMI (Body Mass Index) were assessed. The height was taken barefoot in centimetres using a stadiometer. The weight was measured in kilogram without shoes and BMI was calculated. Bio-medical impedance was used for analysis of fat percent and visceral fat which was measured by Body Composition Monitor BFS08. The data so collected were compiled in MS Excel and analyzed for each age group using SPSS 16.

:The leather making process is in general restricted to batch processing, but if the surface coating sub-process is added then some continuous processing can be included. The operation flow has to follow the preparatory → tanning → crusting → surface coating sub-process order without deviation, but some of the sub-processes can be omitted to make certain leathers.In addition to the other environmental impacts of leather, the production processes have a high environmental impact, most notably due to: the heavy use of polluting chemicals in the tanning process and air pollution due to the transformation process. This paper deals with respondents' realization on pollution of drinking water in Vellore region consequent upon leather industry and tannery activities. It outlines the respondents' observation of causes and reasons behind pollution drinking water. This paper concludes with some interesting findings based on field survey.

HRD climate is the one to generate very performance oriented culture where everyone will take sole accountabilities of their activities.

-Mayang in Assam is perhaps best known as the 'land of black magic and witchcraft'. Situated in the Morigaon district of Assam, the erstwhile kingdom of Mayang is today one of the largest development blocks in the state. Human society is a dynamic entity with its varied peculiarities. Societies in different parts of the world have developed a spectrum of rituals, habits, rules, norms and belief systems depending upon their convenience and natural environment. In an attempt to reconstruct the past we are bound to face lots of obstacles with distinctive features of their own. Despite of that each society should be analysed in conformity with the environment in which they lived and their reaction to their surroundings with its institutions that had emerged in the process of change. Mayang is famous for the tradition of magical belief system and the manuscripts i.e. mantraputhis still prevalent in the area refers about that rich heritage.

This paper analyses the changing patterns of Indo-France relations and traces issues of conflict and cooperation, and continuity and change between the two countries. It argues that although France's traditional-cultural relations with pre-independent India had been good, diplomatic and political relations during the entire Cold War period were far from being friendly; rather they were formal, commercial and business oriented. The end of the Cold War ushered in new challenges for India, compelling it to undertake a thorough revision of its foreign policy. India's neo-realist aspirations to play a more active role in global politics, the French strategic support to India during the Pokharan nuclear tests, the far-reaching changes in Europe and the desire of both countries for an all-round intensification of cooperation have led to a transformation of Indo-French relations from a 'buyer-seller syndrome' to a strategic partnership in the twenty-first century. Going by the current trend, the future of Franco-India relations look promising.

The shoulder is a very important part of the body. Not only does the shoulder make your upper body appear to be wider especially good for bodybuilders, but if not trained correctly, it could give you problems for the rest of your life. The key to building massive shoulders is to understand how the shoulder works and how to keep it healthy. The shoulder is the most movable joint in the body but is very unstable. The shoulder itself is a ball and socket joint. The ball of the shoulder is the head of the hummers the socket portion of the shoulder is called the globoid where arthritis in the shoulder forms. On top of the ball and socket is a process called the acromion where bone spurs can form. Next to the acromion is the acromioclavicular joint, also called the AC Joint (this is a common place for shoulder separations). This ball and socket joint allows for the most range of motion out of all the joints in the body

Water storage characteristics of the cement plug was studied by monitoring the depth of water storage and length of water spread. The losses from surface water storage in the form of evaporation and seepage/percolation were estimated. The effect of seepage on ground water recharge was studied by monitoring water levels in the observation wells, Utilization of stored water in the cement nala bund was observed. The full water storage of cement nala 3 bund was found to be 3735.85m , with the maximum length and width of spread as 139.2 m and 8.52 m respectively with the maximum impounding of water as 3.15 m. The maximum evaporation loss and 3 3 seepage loss from the cement nala bund was found to be 452.34 m and 1465.23 m respectively. The impounded water in cement nala bund resulted in the increase in water levels in the observation wells of the influencing area. Due to silting, the storage capacity of the cement nala bund was reduced by 1.56% in five years after its construction with silt deposition rate of 31.034 tones /year.

This study is an attempt to discuss the Impact of Selected Instructional Approaches on Enhance Understanding of Abstract Concepts in Physics. Physics teachers usually instruct students in secondary schools about attributes and interactions of energy and matter. Their responsibilities include lesson preparation and the grading of class assignments, examinations and laboratory exercises.

The status of Indian women was low during medieval period and started gradual increase in status after independence. Still, majority of SC/ST women are not getting equal status and respect in the society. When their educational status is analyzed, it was found that they are lagged behind in education. Of course, many of the government schemes are providing facilities to girls to get education, but due to lack of awareness among the parents of SC/ST girls, still many of the SC/ST girls are deprived of education. The paper is given suggestions to develop the educational status of SC/ST women.

Scheduled castes are backward castes and the women of Scheduled Castes are deprived in society due to their caste and gender.

Rural economy is the heart of the Indian economy by providing shelter to almost 68.84 percent of India's 121 crore (census of India, 2011) people. In developing countries like India, rural labour consists of one of the largest work force, i.e. it accounted for almost 60 percent of the total labour force. A person who is living and working in rural area and engaged in agricultural and\or nonagricultural activities requiring physical labour and getting wages or remunerations partially or wholly in cash or kind or both during the year or such own-account workers like small farmers and artisans who are not usually hiring in labourers but are a part of the petty production in rural areas is defined as rural labour. And the rural labour market may be defined as a system of allocating and rewarding labour. The problem of imperfection is associated with rural labour market. These markets are more imperfect because of the peculiarities of labour and the degree of imperfection may be still higher in an under develop country because of a complex set of socio-historical reason. Moreover, in many developing countries like India, the supply of workers far exceeds the demand, the result being extremely high rates of unemployment and underemployment.

Over the past couple of year’s issues of displacement or eviction of tribal from their original land due to various reasons has become a major contentious issue. Now displacement has been recognized as a fact. This is now reflected in many of the policy documents. Apart from depriving them of their lands, livelihoods and resource-base, displacement has other traumatic psychological and sociocultural consequences.Such an approach is especially necessary in respect of tribal, small & marginal farmers and women”.

Libraries develop their collections, facilities and services to meet the information needs of their patrons. However, in order to accomplish this task effectively, libraries must have a thorough understanding of the information needs and information seeking behavior of their users. This article examines the information - seeking behaviour of scholars in the Internet era. The articles focuses on how electronic information resources influence the information seeking process in social sciences. The electronic information resources plays an essential role in the researchers' information seeking pursuits. The different models of information seeking behavior : David Ellis (1989), Kuhlthau (1992) and Wilson (1981) which are the popular models during the 1980's is discussed. These models illustrates the relationship between the concepts of user, need, uses and user behavior. The article also focuses on the impact of technological advancements on students' capacities, expectations and learning styles and how Internet technology influences and contributes to the information seeking behavior of students and faculty

The present study deals with and effort to reveal the strata-wise differences (sex and habitat) of emotional intelligence and problem solving ability in mathematics of the students of class XI (just promoted) under WBBSE. Two adapted and re-standardized questionnaires were administered on a sample of 495 no of students selected by cluster sampling technique to collect the required data. The collected data were analyzed statistically by using ANOVA, t-tests, correlation and linear regression. The main findings are: there exists a significant difference between the strata boys-girls, urban boys-rural boys and rural boys-rural girls of emotional intelligence inventory and case of problem solving ability in mathematics all the strata are significant at 1% level of significance. Habitat is an essential factor over and above sex in problem solving ability in mathematics. It is also observed that, the correlation between two studied variables is low. Regression equation found that problem solving ability in mathematics could not be predicted from the scores of emotional intelligence.

Teacher play viable role in everybody's life therefore, it was thought to study the social health of teachers with difference age group. The teacher teaching at different levels face different challenges as the student characteristics, contents, nature of academic activities and administrative work at different level of education.The concept of social health is less intuitively familiar that of physical or mental health, and yet, along with physical and mental health, it forms one of the three pillars of most definitions of health. Human Being has tried to make life comfortable with innovations. No doubt it makes human life very comfortable but in the process we start forgetting about owns self's, the essence of human being the fast, technological age increases standard of living decrease in quality of life. The individuals stress does not affect his /her life but also the life of others in the society. The human is a social being therefore maladjusted behavior of individuals contaminates individual's mental health as well as social health. To maintain social health is very necessary to build up powerful and strong nation. And for this education is the great media. Teaching is a unique profession which is complex in nature, demands various roles to perform and influences others behavior.Thus, the study is an endeavor to study the social health of primary, secondary and higher secondary teachers.

In developing countries, rapid growth in urban population has not been matched by an adequate expansion of sanitation, health services, and livelihood opportunities. Consequently, the urban advantage in health has faded in recent decades. In the recent times, much of the studies have shown the higher risk of maternal and child mortality, higher childhood malnutrition, and lower use of antenatal and delivery care services among the urban poor with compared to rest of the urban residents and in some cases than the rural residents too. But, there is dearth of literature showing the use of family planning among urban poor. Family planning has widespread positive impacts for population health and wellbeing; contraceptive use not only decreases unintended pregnancies and reduces infant and maternal mortality and morbidity, but it is critical to the achievement of Millennium Development Goals. This study examines the differences in family planning use among women hailing from the slums of Tiruchirappalli.

Image data hiding provides an out-band channel to a sender to deliver secret data to a designated receiver without other entities being aware. Its application varies from medical use to military application. The criteria for a good image data hiding algorithm are imperceptible to non-authenticated entities and high capacity for carrying secret data. The first criterion is more significant if the application is about military or espionage. LSB substitution algorithm is the simplest scheme to hide message in a host image. It replaces the least significant bit (LSB) of each pixel with the encrypted message bit stream. Authenticated receivers can extract the message by deciphering the LSB of every pixel of the host image with a pre-shared key. Since only the least significant bit of pixels is altered, it is visually imperceptible by human. The capacity of the algorithm is 1 bit per pixel.

Industrial progress depends on satisfied labour force and in this connection the importance of labour welfare measures. The term 'labour legislation' is used to cover all the laws which have been enacted to deal with employment and wages, working conditions, industrial relations, social security and welfare of workers employed in industries. Labour law also known as employment law is the body of laws, administrative rulings and precedents which address the legal rights of, and restrictions on, working people and their organizations. Labour law defines the rights and obligations as workers, union members and employers in the workplace. There are two broad categories of labour law. First, collective labour law relates to the tripartite relationship between employee, employer and union. Second, individual labour law concerns employees' rights at work and through the contract for work.
