In the present study, nanocrystalline MoBiGaSe5 thin films with primary semispherical balls and secondary diffused nanograins have been prepared onto glass substrates by vacuum deposition technique. Ammonium molybdate (NH4)6Mo7O24·4H2O, Bismuth nitrate Bi(NO3)3·5H2O, Gallium nitrate Ga(NO3)3·xH2O, and Selenium Se metal powder were used as a precursors of Mo+4, Bi+3, Ga+3 and Se-2 ions respectively. The as deposited and vacuum annealed thin films were characterized for their optostructural, morphological and electrical properties using different characterization techniques. Optical absorption studies reveal that as deposited and annealed MoBiGaSe5 films show absorption in the wavelength range of 400 to 800 nm. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images of as deposited films showed uniform, well defined granular morphology, besides annealed samples have diffused granular growth of uniform spheres. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of annealed thin film shows, the phase transition from orthorhombic Bi2Se3 to stoichiometric hexagonal Bi2Se3 phase. Phase transition confirms the formation of hexagonal nanocrystalline MoBiGaSe5 pure phase. Electrical conductivity (EC) of as deposited and vacuum annealed sample was measured by two probe method. An EC increase with temperature indicates semiconductor nature with p-type conductivity.

Prior to Indias independence, the state took upon itself the role of sole provider of water. It was the colonial state that centralized control over water resources. The post-independent state inherited this role, and continued with it. This led to communities and households being no longer the primary agents of water provision and management. The HMWSSB treats water primarily as a social good. It follows a centralized, supplydrive approach of service delivery where water tariffs are highly subsidized for both the domestic users as well as the industrial users. Many have supported this approach by justifying that water is a fundamental right of the people. Article 21 of the Constitution guarantees the right to life, which also includes the right to clean drinking water. The State is duty-bound to provide it. However, inadequate resources constrained governments ability to fulfill this goal and coverage and quality of services suffered.

Vipassana is a Pali word from the Sanskrit prefix "vi-" and verbal root paú. It is often translated as "insight" or "clear-seeing", though the "in-" prefix may be misleading; "vi" in Indo-Aryan languages is equivalent to the Latin "dis." The "vi" in vipassana may then mean to see into, see through or to see ‘in a special way.’ Alternatively, the "vi" can function as an intensive, and thus vipassana may mean "seeing deeply."A synonym for "Vipassana" is paccakkhain Pali and Sanskrit: pratyak?a, "before the eyes," which refers to direct experiential perception. Thus, the type of seeing denoted by "vipassana" is that of direct perception, as opposed to knowledge derived from reasoning or argument.

Human life is a circumlocution of binary divisions which may be contradictory or complementary. When a writer creates a text, there is a world view which is the local and the global at the same time because there are multiple ideological indicators in the narrative for the reader to uncover. The writer’s cultural conditioning and the construct of the language code viz-a-viz the universality of themes, the appeal for aesthetic beauty and proliferation of meanings are other factors which contribute in creating the conceptual connections in the narrative. This is what creates the categorization into binary oppositions which a writer exercises with reference to his own philosophy and his perception for mankind, culture, language and ethnicity at large. Coetzee also creates a realm of such binary oppositions in the furores of post-apartheid in his novel Disgrace. The paper attempts to explore these binary oppositions embedded in culture. To encompass this task, a structural analysis of the relationships between signs through the opposition of concepts extending itself to relevant ontology is also done.

Industrialization is the process of transformational change of the society and economy that transform human society from an agrarian society to an industrial society. Industrialization involves immense economic and social change such as urbanization, technology revolution, modernizations, large scale of manufacturing, andmodification of natural systems, enormous energy usage etc. Climate change is linked to industrialization. Climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather pattern of a region or some region or the entire earth. The climate change often referred to as ‘Global Warming’, which means specific increases in the surface temperature due to anthropogenic activities. Since the Industrial Revolution in Western Europe, there has been a significant increase in the earth’s temperature and if no proactive mitigation steps are taken in time, we may experience up to 4 degree Celsius increase in temperature by the end of twenty first century. The Industry sector contribution to green house gas (GHGs) is 21 percent of total emissions. Industry consumes about 40 percent of total energy generated worldwide. There is need to promote accomplishment of efficient technology in developing countries and support the multinational firms, business and industries to use efficient eco friendly technology.

Of all the contemporary Indian English novelists Anita Desai is, perhap, the most perceptive and consistent explorer of the inner life, especially that of Indian women, convulsed by an acute sense of helplessness in the face of onslaughts of an unfeeling world and the resultant mental agony. Her women are almost sick of life and listless playthings of their morbid psychic longings. Most of her female protagonists- Maya in Cry, the Peacock (1963) Monisha in Voices in the City (1965), Sita in Where Shall We Go This Summer"? (1975), Nanda in Fire on the Mountain (1977) – are abnormally sensitive and unusually solitary to the point of being neurotic. What is important is the fact that Anita Desai, in most of her novels, attempts to bring out the neurotic condition of her female protagonists by a variety of factors – the most prominent being dissonance in marital relationships. This paper puts forward the portrayal of marital discord in Anita Desai’s Cry, the Peacock.

Worshipping the God has been a common practice from immemorial days. Ages before our ancestors worshipped nature as their god. In course of time due to the advent of civilization the idol worship was in vogue. Hence temples were built. During the Sangam period and after that are temples were found.
