RESISTANCE AND REVOLT IN ARUNDHATI ROY'S THE GOD OF SMALL THINGS: A POSTMODERN PERSPECTIVE |
Author : SOMVEER |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :In the post-independence era, it is taken for granted that the oppressive system has disappeared with the demise of the Empire, the emergence of democracy, dissemination of education and advancement of science and technology, but the hegemonic system, may be in lesser degree, continues to plague the Indian society both covertly and overtly. But it does not mean these changes are useless and ineffective. The socio-cultural and political changes, in the postcolonial era, have awakened the hitherto marginalized sections to their rights as independent human beings. Conscious of their rights, they interrogate and challenge the system that denies them basic rights to grow in life. The present paper seeks to examine the theme of resistance to and revolt against the still alive oppressive system in Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things. The novel represents the theme through the characters of Ammu, Velutha, Rahel and Estha. The way the theme is treated calls for our attention to the large-scale death and destruction looming large on the social horizon. The novelist presents the view that the cardinal virtues of love, trust, tolerance and brotherhood can go a long way in creating social harmony. The argument illustrates the post-modernist view that peaceful-coexistence is urgently needed to save human race from decay and destruction. |

Abstract :We have synthesized six complexes {M(CO) [HMINH]}1a-3a, (1a, M = Cr, 2a, 4 M = Mo, 3a, M = W), {M(CO) [HINH]} 1b-3b (1b, M = Cr, 2b, M = Mo, 3b, M = W) by 4 photochemical displacement of two CO group from M(CO) by N'-(2-hydroxy-3- 6 methoxybenzylidene)isonicotinohydrazide [HMINH] and N'-(2-hydroxy benzyli dene)isonicotinohydrazide [HINH] derived from isonicotinohydrazide. The synthesized complexes exhibit variable degree of antibacterial activity. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, [1H]-NMR spectroscopy and magnetic studies. The spectroscopic studies suggest a bidentate behavior of the ligand via azomethine-N and phenolic-O donor atoms with the metal (0). |

CONCEPT OF CREAMY LAYER UNDER INDIAN CONSTITUTION |
Author : MANOJ K. MALIK AND ANIL K. SHARMA |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Parliament had earlier introduced Article 16(4B). This sub-Article was significant since it was not confined to SCs and STs but theoretically applied to OBCs also. This sub-Article said that if any unfilled reserved vacancy was carried forward; such unfilled vacancies should not be counted while calculating the ceiling of 50 per cent of reservation. The petitioners before the Supreme Court challenged the above amendments along with one more amendment made to Article 335, which enabled the relaxation in qualifying marks for SC and ST candidates. The Supreme Court had to address a crucial issue, namely whether any or all of these amendments were violative of the basic structure of the Constitution, since that is the only ground available in law to challenge a constitutional amendment. |

DROUGHT IN MAHARASHTRA |
Author : DILIP KHANDERAO PATIL |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Drought is an extended period of months or years when a region notes a deficiency in its water supply whether surface or underground water. Generally, this occurs when a region receives consistently below average precipitation. The Indian state of Maharashtra is affected by severe drought in 2013. It is considered as the region's worst drought in 40 years. With 3,712 major, minor and medium projects, Maharashtra has the highest number of dams in the country; yet its irrigation coverage was 17.9 per cent in 2009-10. Its projects are plagued with delays and cost overruns, and a special team headed by Madhav Chitale is investigating them.The Maharashtra Economic Survey 2012-13, does not give any figure for irrigated area, saying it is not available. Last year, this same figure had created a furore, since it had increased by a mere 0.1 per cent from 2000-01 when it was 17.8 per cent, after a decade-long expenditure of nearly Rs 70,000 crore. The worst ever drought that the state of Maharashtra has experienced till date is the 1972 drought when almost 5 million people had no work as the crops failed. But the current drought in Maharashtra is set to break all the records. With millions estimated to be affected, lakhs of cattle rendered hungry without fodder, this drought is the worst kind of natural disaster that the state has faced. Almost 1/5th of Maharashtra is reeling under drought. |

DISTRIBUTED DATA MINING USING MESSAGE PASSING INTERFACE. |
Author : HITESH NINAMA |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Data mining involves the use of sophisticated data analysis tools to discover previously unknown, valid patterns and relationships in large data sets. Consequently, data mining consists of more than collecting and managing data, it also includes analysis and prediction. Data mining is used for producing predictive models that are helpful in decision making. In order to improve the efficiency of mining algorithm for the large data sets we are implementing Distributed Data Mining (DDM) which uses Message Passing Interface (MPI) so that different instances of the same process can communicate with each other. Then the proposed algorithm can be compared with existing algorithm to check the performance. Similarly the algorithm can also be compared to show that how distributed computing increases the performance as compared to single processor. Result generated by the proposed work shows that the performance of DTI algorithm gets improve if we perform DDM using message passing interface. |
