One of the major constraints that India has been facing of late, is savings constraint. This limits investment. It has been observed that in recent times, there has been a fall in real rate of interest which has discouraged savings and led to substitution of financial savings with non-financial savings (primarily gold). This paper shows that a rise in import of gold adds to further constraint on investment by lowering savings through a variety of channels. Further a rate cut in times of economic gloom leads to stagflation, instead of causing a recovery, by increasing consumption of gold and lowering savings.

Women are strangulated between expectations in family and pressures of their role in the public space. Once exposed to the public space at various capacities as employees and others, they have to grapple with role expectations of two domains of their lives: family and public space. This suffocation impacts their social world in tremendous ways, often detrimental to their sociability, opportunities, excellence in their public role as well health. In the traditional division of labour existing in the society, women are considered as protector of the family and responsible house makers. But socio economic changes have altered the traditional preoccupation of women with family and women began to appear in the public domain. Consequently women have to travel between two worlds, i.e., the private domain, which is her socially constructed natural place and public domain. How women adjust to their life responsibilities is a socially relevant question which needs to be explored. This paper is an attempt to understand whether the entry of women in the public domain has made any changes in their domestic responsibilities or their private life carry any impact on the excellence on the respective industry in which they find themselves on the public space.

The aim of this study was to find out the influence of yoga and pranayama on agility and coordination of women volleyball players. 60 women volleyball players from Sri Krishnadevaraya University affiliated colleges in Ananthapuramu in Andhra Pradesh in the age group of 18 to 21 years were divided into three groups namely Yogasana Group, Pranayamas Group and control group on random basis. Pre test was conducted on all the three groups to determine their anaerobic power and after 12 weeks training on yogic practices and pranayama post test scores were obtained. To test statistical significance ANCOVA was employed. The results of the study proved that agility and coordination of women volleyball players were significantly altered by 12 weeks yogasana and pranayama which may be due to conversion of some of the Fast Twitch (F.T.) muscle fibres into Slow Twitch fibres (S.T.) during yogic training and pranayama training. The results further proved that there was significant difference between yogasana group and pranayama group on agility and yogic practices group was significantly better than pranayama in improving agility. There was no significant difference between experimental group on coordination. It was concluded that yogasanas or pranayama can be practiced to improve agility and coordination of women volleyball players.

Clothing is one of the basic necessities of human existence and as a requirement it has changed its significance with time. Its role from protection to pride has seen the evolution from different perspectives. The credit goes to the exceptional skills of weavers, who are the life blood of textile industry. The Indian textile industry is diverse and occupies a prominent position in the Indian economy. It ranges from capital intensive to hand woven sector. The Powerloom has recent origin and is seen as a by product of Mills sector. As every industry has its ups and downs, Powerloom industry is no exception to this and has its share of problems in the form of Infrastructure issues, Technology, Raw material, Organisational issues, Government assistance and Marketing problems.

In India, most of the people live in villages and yet it is deprived of various opportunities that the cities enjoy. Rabindranath was one of the pioneers to thought of reconstructing the villages in such a way that they not only get the opportunity of education , medical treatment and other facilities but above all can themselves think of their betterment in life and it is not imposed to them from above. Rabindranath had found through practical experiences that the villagers are afraid of seeking justice for their own selves so he tried to cater self respect among them, which he think would be the main weapon of the villagers which he thought would help the villagers in reconstructing their life. In my article I have tried to show the early thoughts of Rabindranath regarding the reconstruction of villages in Silaidaha and Patisar which came under his Zamindari.

The most desirable object in this world is obviously the pleasure. There may be different views regarding the origin, nature and class of pleasure, but nobody can deny the pleasure. Pleasure is one of the basic things of our life, without this, human development is impossible. Man can get pleasure in anytime, anywhere, any form and from any object. There are levels of pleasure in our society. As a social and rational being, we should not approve all kinds of pleasure. The definition of pleasure may be differing from person to person and community to community, but the real pleasure should be the one which brings pleasure not only for oneself but for all. And to attaining the pleasure, knowledge is required, avoiding the knowledge one cannot think about pleasure. Pleasure will automatically come out if one lives a life with honor, justice and wisdom. Justice resides there, where honor or respect is present and without wisdom justice is impossible. So we can say that to attain the pleasure and to staying in the warm of pleasure, wisdom is needed.

It is observed that a more significant percentage of human beings need to develop their mind to their fullest capability to realize its true benefits being a human being. The human nature at the beginning of its young mind is considered innocent and ignorant of what merits and demerits that could be obtained living in this mortal realm. Without the real basis of measurement to assess the merits and demerits, they tend to interpret and evaluate the value of things based on sensual pleasure. Therefore things of sensual pleasures are regarded as being of high importance. In other words, it could be said that our human civilization at the beginning of our history would attest to this fact. We find human being was unable to find the true peace and happiness in this mortal realm until the emergence of the teaching Buddha in 550 BC. That was the beginning of this Buddha Sasana when the Lord Buddha discovered the correct pathway to liberation. It was then that, human being began to understand the good and bad actions.

India in its latest census 2011 has shown the demographic dividend as the sign of economic growth in the true sense. Globalisation will be benefited from the population dividend by 2020 and onward. No wonder demography has gone beyond the headcounts; study of the population in every census in India raises issues of National and International concern. Especially, India is at the alarming stage of demographic developmental studies as per the statistical anticipation of having the worlds’ largest population by 2036. Censuses in India have defined the population growth as – 1891 – 1921, as Stagnant Population, 1921 – 1951, as Steady Growth, 1951 – 1981, as Rapid Growth, 1981 – 2011 High Growth with signs of Slowing down, 2011 – onward, as Controlled Growth which has been used as parameters of measuring many social sciences studies. Current census of 2011 clearly defines the Indian Population as the emerging Super Power in Manpower of the world by 2020 because of the largest segment of the young population, which is of course a transit advantage for the country. Like other censuses this current census 2011 has highlighted the issues like (CSR) declining Child Sex Ratio, higher level of (TFR) Total Fertility Rate, Increased Literacy Rate etc. as controllable measures for the nation. The most significant is the issue of accommodating people in the country by 2101 onward in the country. Will India plan to shift people possibly to the satellite ‘Moon’ by 2111 AD or will negotiate and buy the land mass from the countries who have surplus to dispose as a good will gesture to the human civilization or will encourage the population to migrate as global citizens to take up different nationalities in different countries.

Today’s work environment needs people that are familiar with different cultures and communicate well with other people with heterogeneous cultures. Because we live in a world that is an integrated entity and increasingly influenced by external cultural factors. For those who are in leadership positions it is now not only necessary to have a high IQ and EQ (Emotional intelligence) but strong Cultural Intelligence is also increasingly regarded as necessary skill. Cultural Intelligence represents the ability of a person to adapt with values, costumes and traditions which are different with those previous and working in a different cultural environment. In this paper an attempt has been made to find out the difference between male and female secondary school teachers regarding cultural intelligence and job satisfaction as well as to study the relationship between cultural intelligence and job satisfaction among secondary school teachers. The study conducted on 80 sample teachers working in 8 different Secondary Schools of Nagaon District of Assam. Sample is further equally divided into 40 male and 40 female teachers from selected sample. Cultural Intelligence Scale/Questionnaire designed by Ang et al., (2004) and Job satisfaction scale constructed by Kumar and Mutha (1973) have been used as a tool of data collection and different statistical techniques are used for analysis of data. The result of the study revealed that gender is not considered as an important variable for both cultural intelligence and Job satisfaction; further a very low positive relationship between cultural intelligence and Job satisfaction is obtained.

Indebtedness among the agricultural labour households is one of the key problems in India. As agricultural activities are heavily dependent upon natural factors such as quality of soil, temperature, rainfall, etc., these ultimately affect the annual income from agriculture and thereby repaying capacity of the farm labourers. Most of the farm labourers still depends on non-institutional sources of credit. They are often exploited through high rate of interest and conditions of the loan. Farm labourers borrow every year but they are not in a position to repay the debt because either their loans are larger or their agricultural output or amount of wage is not enough to pay off the debt for a longer period of time. Agricultural labourers are compounded by the fact that they are landless labourers, many small and marginal farmers also work partly on the farms of others to supplement their income. This study is mainly based on primary data. Karnataka state is selected for the purpose of the present study. The total sample size of the study was 200 agricultural labour households. Simple statistical tools and techniques like simple averages, ratios, and percentage were employed for analysis of data. The main findings reveal that the proportion of agricultural labour households which had contracted loan was found to be quite significant as compared to that of the hereditary loan. It has been fund that a majority of agricultural labour households have taken loan for unproductive purposes like household consumption and marriages and other ceremonial expenses. It has been also observed that the proportion of average debt per indebted ALHs was found to be quite significant in institutional-cum-non-institutional source as compared to that of other sources, followed by non-institutional source and institutional source. Finally the present study suggested that the State Government should organize special programmes to improve the standard of living of the agricultural labourers like providing housing sites, agricultural land, fair price shops, health centers, maternity wards, vocational and technical training, etc.

Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) of a city has been a significant way to determine the level of urbanization and quality of city life. In the past few decades India as well as the globe have observed the rapid growth in urbanization. Cities in India also have observed lot of problems due to Urban sprawl and therefore in the study change of land use and land cover has been analyzed for Dehradun city and its surroundings using Landsat satellite images. Landsat images for the year 2001, 2011 and 2017 have been obtained from United States Geological Survey,(USGS). Classification of satellite images has been done in five classes, with respect to crop land, built up area, water body, vegetation and other classes. The accuracy assessment of the classification has been a very significant step for result validation and it has yielded significant result in overall accuracy (90.40per centfor 2001, 89.05per centfor 2011 and 95.25per centfor 2017) and Kappa Coefficient (0.82 for 2001, 0.86 for 2011 and 0.94 for 2017). Urban sprawl has increased in Dehradun city with the passage of time (2001 – 2017). Change detection results have shown the rapid and continuous positive growth in built up area from 20.76per centin 2001 to 35.68per centin 2017. On the other hand, negative growth has been found in other classes i.e. cropland water body and vegetation cover. The rapid growth in built up area at the expense of agricultural lands, natural vegetation and open spaces has bound to have serious environmental consequences for the already vulnerable and earthquake prone city of Dehradun and therefore sustainable planning is required to make the city resilient.

For a breach of contract the remedies are available in right in personam. Parties to the contract can file a suit on other party for damages. Generally damages are nominal or substantial damage. In certain circumstances the parties to the contract can directly move to the High Court or Supreme Court under Article 226 or Article 32 for remedies. For breach of contract the aggrieved party generally seeks remedy in the Civil Court but the procedure is lengthy and sometimes the aggrieved party may not get expected relief from the Civil Court, especially when the opposite party is Government. It is very difficult for the plaintiff to get appropriate remedy under these circumstances. It is advisable to the aggrieved party to move High Court or Supreme Court to get quick remedy against the Government and quasi-Governmental Authority.

Judo had its origin in the ancient Japanese art of jujutsu, a system of hand-to-hand combat. Randori training is a free exercise training which is practiced under conditions of actual contest. It includes throwing, choking, holding the opponent down, and bending or twisting of the arms. Uchikomi training is repetition training and is used in Judo to refer to the repeated practice of a throwing motion up to the point where the throw would actually be executed. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of randori and uchikomi training on stress among junior state level judokas. To achieve the purpose of the study, forty five judokas were randomly selected from Tamil Nadu state junior state championship in the age group of 18 to 21 years. They were assigned into three groups of which one group participated in randori training, second group participated in uchikomi training and the third group served as control group. The training programme was scheduled for three days a week and each training session consist of 45 minutes including warm up and cool down exercises. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) statistical technique was used to test the adjusted post-test mean differences among randori training and uchikomi training groups and the adjusted post-test result was significant, the scheffe’s post-hoc test was used to determine the significance of the paired mean differences. Randori training made significant reduction on stress among junior state level judokas due to the six weeks of randori training. It was concluded that randori training can be better utilized for controlling stress than uchikomi training among junior state level judokas.

Traditionally Indias tax administration depends heavily on indirect Taxes. Revenue from Indirect taxes was the major source of Tax revenue. The major argument put forth for heavy reliance on Indirect taxes was that the Indias majority of Population was poor and thus expand base of direct Taxes had inherent Limitations. The purpose of GST is replacing all these Taxes with single comprehensive Tax, bringing it all under single umbrella.Its purpose is elimination of tax on tax. It is implemented from 1st July 2017 with the aim of replacing current complex structure of multiple Indirect Taxes.It has been commonly accepted by more than 140 countries in the world. This implementation will give a boost to the growth engine pursued by government. This paper will throw light on GST its features and also effect of GST on prices of Goods and Services. Thus GST is termed as biggest Tax reform in Indian Tax structure. GST is not a Tax change but it will benefit the economy as a whole and have far reaching impact on business.

Background:Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (NET) consist of uncommon, acute, life-threatening mucocutaneous diseases. They reveal a hypersensitivity reaction and may be due to medications, infections and neoplasias.Objective: The objective of this study is to report a clinical case of a child, who developed SJS by CBZ and perform a review of the literature. Case report: Escolar, S.B.R, female, 9 years old, coming from Manaus attended in the Hospital Samel Pronto (Manaus, Amazonas), with a history of 3 days of odynophagia already in use of Azithromycin. The physical examination findings in the ICU showed a very severe and anasarcted patient, developing a septic shock, with a foul-smelling content in the nasogastric, acyanotic, icteric (2 + / 4 +), afebrile, hypotensive, dehydrated, normocorate and sedated patients. Conclusions: The HLA alleles of the patient in question are not among the most frequent in the literature, however, she is not a descendant of Asians. Patient care should be taken over the prescription of the drug, since CBZ is well reported in the literature promoting SJS. Further studies on the frequency of alleles associated with the presence of SJS need to be documented in order for the health team to be alert to patients orientations about possible reactions.

In recent years plasmonics and metamaterials have attracted research community due to their wide applications in sub-diffraction imaging [1], invisibility cloaks [2], material with negative refractive index [3] and so on. In these applications noble metal materials are used as the conventional and primary building blocks of plasmonic optical metamaterials [4]. As compared with noble metals, semiconductors like ZnO, TiO2 with appropriately doped material exhibits better results in the area of plasmonics and metamaterial applications [5, 6]. ZnO is an n-type semiconductor material with the properties like low cost, abundant availability in nature, non-toxicity, pollution free, suitability of doping, thermally stable and Due to these properties this material is widely studied in various applications like ultraviolet light emitters, solar cells, piezoelectric transducers, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, radio frequency interference (RFI) shielding and so on [7-12].

Promoting is gone for enhancing the business volume of a worry so its viability can be assessed by its effect on deals. The greater part of the directors trust that the advertising straightforwardly influences the business volume and thus they assess the adequacy of the promoting effort by the expansion in the business volume. The intensity of this multivariable factorial structure is clarified by G.H.Brown, previous Fords Director of Marketing Research. As it is extremely hard to quantify the immediate impact of publicizing on organizations benefits or deals, most firms depend vigorously on backhanded measures. So as to be successful, the commercial must pick up introduction. The presumption of this kind of measure is that there is an immediate connection between the notices and the mindfulness. Buyers for the most part use notices as a methods for getting data about the item, brand or the producer. . It appears from the examination of the above techniques for estimating viability that specifically or in a roundabout way changes in deals or benefits are taken as the estimating bar of the adequacy of the promoting.

The term sacca (Sanskrit: satya) is a focal term in Indian idea and religion. It is normally deciphered as truth; yet it likewise signifies "what is as per reality", or "reality". The facts are four genuine things or substances which the Buddha at long last comprehended the evening of his enlivening. They work as "a helpful applied system for comprehending Buddhist idea." It is an announcement of how things are seen by a Buddha, how things truly are when seen effectively.

Introduction: Rheumatic fever (RF) is a late non-suppurative inflammatory complication of upper airway infection (pharyngotonsillitis) caused by Lancefield group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus (EBHGA). It prevails among the lower socioeconomic classes. The objective of this study is to report a case of a child, who developed a serious condition due to late diagnosis and inadequate treatment. Case Adolescent, indigenous, 13 years old, female, was admitted to the emergency room with history of myoarthralgia, precordialgia, difficulty walking, anasarca, oliguria, daily fever measured at 39oC, abdominal pain and respiratory discomfort. She mentioned the onset of the disease 3 months ago, but only sought medical care after 01 month of the onset of symptoms, was diagnosed with Urinary Tract Infection. She was referred from the Hospital of Tabatinga, in a severe condition, with cardiorespiratory arrest and orotracheal intubation, electrocardiographic changes and arrhythmias, immediately transferred to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit.

Ocotea neesiana (Miq.) Kosterm. (Lauraceae) commercially known in the Amazon as "louro-aritu" was widely used for decades in civil construction but there is little knowledge pertaining to its chemical and anatomy of wood. The objective this study was to evaluate the composition of essential oil, technological aspects and contribute to the identification of louro-aritu wood from demolition. Thus, a part of demolition wood used at least the last forty-five years as roofing structure was submitted to volatile constituents extraction through hydrodistillation in a Clevenger system. (1.70-1.87) associated with the general Analyzes of anatomical characteristics confirmed the identity of the wood as belonging to species Ocotea neesiana (Miq.). Kosterm. Basic density (0.69 g cm3) and anisotropy coefficient characteristics confirm the technological potential this wood for producing several artifacts. The chemical identification of essential oil was carried out by gas chromatography, the monoterpenes a-terpineol (53.89%), a-borneol (16.20%) and fenchol (9.80%) showed to be predominant. In this study was also evidenced that the essential oil producing cells of this wood are individualized and only release the volatile compounds after their rupture.

Hepatitis C is a viral, infectious and contagious disease that represents a serious public health problem of global, national and regional distribution. The general objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical-laboratory profile and therapeutic response of patients with Hepatitis C to the direct-acting antiviral drugs (AADs) treated at an outpatient clinic linked to a university hospital located in the city of Manaus/AM. About the methodology, this is an observational, descriptive and retrospective study, with a quantitative approach, of a series of cases, notified and confirmed of hepatitis C, making up a sample of 18 (eighteen) patients, attended at the Ambulatory Araújo Lima (AAL), linked to the University Hospital Getúlio Vargas (HUGV), Federal University of Amazonas (UFAM), from January 2016 to January 2018. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data on patients were collected from medical records. A review was also carried out in the literature, to base the research carried out theoretically. The results found lead to the following conclusion: the disease had a major involvement at the age of 61, of which 55.5% were male and 44.5% female, with a predominance of men, data compatible with the national profile. It was observed that genotype type 1 is more frequent, with 83.4%, followed by genotype 3, with 16.6%. This genotypic pattern is compatible with the pattern found in several places in the country. With therapeutic success rates, which reach 96 to 100%, the AADs can allow the possibility of eradication of the disease in the world and in Brazil in the next years.

A presente pesquisa foi desenvolvida em cinco escolas municipais na cidade de Humaitá no estado do Amazonas com professores dos anos iniciais de 1º ao 5º ano do ensino fundamental e propondo uma verificação de com os professores trabalham a educação ambiental em escolas de comunidades rurais. Esta pesquisa visa compreender a importância de formações continuadas relacionadas com a temática ambiental para a prática de atividades do professor em sala de aula.

The management of pirarucu (Arapaima Gigas) has been carried out by the traditional communities of Amazonas, especially the municipality of Fonte Boa since 2002. This activity consists of annual and joint work among communities and institutions of Technical Assistance, where the community organization, counting , monitoring and surveillance of lakes are part of this process. The minimum size for the capture of Pirarucu was established under the rules of the Brazilian Institute for the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) in 150 cm, which is released for areas that have a fishing agreement and Conservation Units. The present work consists of a descriptive analysis on the Pirarucu Length Structure (Arapaima Gigas) managed in the middle Solimões River / Amazonas - Brazil. The objective was to analyze the morphological aspects related to size (Total Length), gender and gonadal stage females caught during fishing. For data collection, the fishery monitoring charts were used in the Database of the Institute of Sustainable Development of Fonte Boa / AM. Data from 33,395 specimens collected during the period from 2013 to 2016 were analyzed. Of these, 17,038 were females and 16,357 malais, being in the year 2016 and 2014 to larger number of females captured, totaling 5,458 species, and in the years of 2013 and 2015 they presented higher numbers of males caught 7.710. In relation to the total length are being captured in greater quantity species with measures between 161cm to 170 cm. Only in 2016 was it possible to find a specimen with 291cm of total length, female in the gonadal stage III. Regarding the gonadal stage, it was possible to notice that there is an index of 1.669 that is found in the gonadal stage I (without ova) and presenting the Total Length - CT between 150cm and 160cm. With this same measure we found 111 species in the IV gonadal stage (mature oocytes). In this way we can verify that a greater number of species are being captured that have not yet reached their stage of maturation.

Introduction: infections by fungus Fusarium oxysporumcan be potentially serious. Several species may cause localized or disseminated disease.

Children’s books have a long history around the world, and they have absorbed into themselves the elements of folk and fairy tale, and the oral tradition. It perceptively began maturing with the stories of ancient myths or folk-tales with its aim to amuse children as well as to teach them. But the genre of children’s literature, in spite of its apparently-fantastical appearance, began to earn its place among serious writings because of its concern with different important issues of society. During 19th and 20th century, the events like Economic crisis, rise of Imperialism, development of science and industries, the Wars, the fights for Independence all had left influences in the writings of children too and these wide range of global issues made children’s literature more appealing to its readers (adults) and scholars. My paper will re-examine the children’s novel The Secret Garden in postcolonial perspective to bring out the issues relating to racisms and imperialism, domination, power politics, including Western views of the “Orient” and establish the consequences of reading a children’s text that contains imperialistic ideologies like England as a ‘better’ place than India and many more.

Chicklit emerged as a sub-genre of women’s writing in the West in the late 1990s and was immediately hailed as the new women’s writing.Chicklit, which always has a single working woman as the protagonist, makes for light and amusing reading. Nevertheless, it merits serious consideration for what it says about women, and for its relationship with feminism. The present paper takes two texts, the iconic Bridget Jones’s Diary which may be said to have started the trend, and a recent novel I Quit,What Next? as two representative texts, from the UK and India and seeks to tease out its vexed relations with the experiences of contemporary women and feminism.

Agriculture plays a vital role in Indian economy. 54.6per cent of the population is promised in agriculture and allied deeds (census 2011) and it subsidises 17.4 per cent to the country’s Gross Value Added (current price 2014-15, 2011-12 series). Given the significance of agriculture sector, Government of India took several steps for its supportable development. Steps have been taken to improve soil fertility on a sustainable basis through the soil health card scheme, to provide improved access to irrigation and improved water good organization through Pradhanmantri Gram Sinchai Yojana, to support organic farming through Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY) and to support for creation of a unified national agriculture market to boost the incomes of farmers. As per the first revised estimations released by CSO on 29.01.2016, the Agriculture and Allied Sector contributed in the region of 17.0 per cent of India’s Gross Value Added (GVA) at current prices during 2014-15. Gross Value Added (GVA) of Agriculture and Connected Sector and its share in total GVA of the country during the last 3 years together with the current year, was reckoned at 2011-12 current prices. The area under food grains was estimated to be 40.72 lakh hectares in 2017- 18 as against 39.70 lakh hectares in 2016- 17, showing an increase of 2.57 per cent. The total production of food grains in 2017-18 was estimated at 157.59 lakh tonnes while it was 149.16 lakh tonnes in 2016-17 showing an increase of 5.65 per cent.

This paper covers the study about what is called as Employee Turnover and what is a need of measuring and controlling the same in an organization. Employee Turnover is the process of replacing one worker with another for any reason. Turnover rate is a matter of concern to almost all the companies because employee turnover can be a costly affair, especially for lower-paying jobs, which typically have the highest turnover rates. Employee Turnover can have a vital affect of the profitability of the organization. Once employee leaves the organization either due to resignation or otherwise then lot of administrative tasks may be required to be performed which lead in incurring the expenses. By understanding the common reasons for high employee turnover, you will be better able to protect your business from a high cost. Well-motivated employees will lead to less Employee Turnover. This paper pay emphasizes on what are necessities of measuring the turnover and what are typical method to control it.

Cyrus Mistry is one among the notable writers in our country who conjures up the nearly invisible lives around him in his letters of merit. The much discussed DSC prize winning novel The Chronicles of a Corpse Bearer discusses the lives and times of the most humiliated and marginalized corpse bearing class in the miniscule society of Parsis. Khandias as they were called is treated out to be a sub-caste in the Parsi community entrusted with the job of the keepers of purity. They mediate between the dead and living ones by carrying the corpse to the lush grounds of Towers of Silence, for the job which they were treated as the god of unclean and source of contamination there by forbidden from normal interaction with the rest of the community. The present paper analyses the lives of the Khandias presented by Mistry on the subaltern paradigm.

Our world is changing around us in such a fast manner and it demands for a Life Long Learning (L3) in order to ensure for better services by professional care givers. Indian children are deprived of their rights to survival and need to be taken care institutionally by Child Protection Organizations (CPOs). The staffs of selected CPOs are contacted to collect primary data through sampling method using a questionnaire. The major focus for this article is to statistically measure lifelong learning strategies of staff members in promoting the services of Children in child protection organizations (CPOs) and to compare the lifelong learning strategies of skill and training along with the levels of child rights intervention. More over it aimed to match the L3 strategy with the programme effectiveness and level of protection mechanisms and to measure statistically the mean difference between the skill and training scores with level of networking with stakeholders. It was observed that due to L3 the quality of services are enhanced, able to do better child rights interventions, improved programme effectiveness, quality in child protection mechanisms and healthy coordination with various stakeholders.

Smaller scale, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) establish over 90% of complete undertakings in the greater part of the economies and are credited with creating the most astounding rates of work development and record for a noteworthy offer of mechanical generation and fares. In India as well, the MSMEs assume an essential job in the generally modern economy of the nation. As of late, the MSME segment has reliably enrolled higher development rate contrasted with the generally speaking mechanical part.

The term yoga originates from a Sanskrit word which implies burden or association. Traditionally, yoga is a method joining the individual self with the divine, universal spirit, or cosmic consciousness. Physical and mental activities are intended to help accomplish this objective, likewise called self-amazing quality or edification. On the physical dimension, yoga stances, called asana, are intended to tone, reinforce, and adjust the body. These stances are performed to make the spine supple and solid and to elevate blood stream to every one of the organs, organs, and tissues, keeping all the real frameworks sound. On the psychological dimension, yoga utilizes breathing systems (pranayama) and contemplation (dyana) to calm, elucidate, and discipline the brain.

It cannot be controverted that human nature is essentially end-oriented. This en-orientation of man implies that human life is a striving towards certain ends. In other words, “it is thoroughly teleological that it cannot be understood apart from what it is seeking to become”. The discipline which deals with the process of seeking and striving in terms of good and bad, and consequently in terms of right and wrong is termed Normative ethics and the judgments like A was a good man, to harm someone is wrong are known as Normative judgments of Value and Obligation respectively. Again, the discipline which aims at philosophical analysis of ethical terms or concepts like ‘right’, ‘good’, etc., which asks the meaning and definition of such terms, seeks justification of normative judgments, discusses their nature, and is concerned with the analysis of freedom and responsibility is termed Meta-ethics. Besides, there is descriptive historical inquiry to explain the phenomenon of morality in the various periods of history. Thus normative ethics, meta-ethics, and descriptive ethics constitute three kinds of ethical inquiry. IN the present paper, I propose to look at Jaina ethics from the normative and meta-ethical perspectives, to the exclusion of its descriptive historical inquiry. In other words, I shall not be describing the Achara of the Householder and that of the Muni in the various periods of history, but shall be dealing with some of the questions regarding value and obligation and metaethics, from the point of view of Jaina ethics in order to bring out the contribution of the Jaina to the above ethical questions.

Indias advanced education framework is the worlds third major as far as understudies, beside China and the United States. In future, India will be one of the biggest instruction center points. Indias Higher Education area has seen a phenomenal increment in the quantity of Universities/University level Institutions and Colleges since freedom. The Right to Education Act which stipulates compulsory and free education to all children within the age groups of 6-14 years, has brought about a rebellion in the education system of the country with statistics revealing a shocking enrolment in schools over the last four years. The involvement of private sector in higher education has seen radical changes in the field. Today over 60Per cent of higher education organisations in India are promoted by the private sector.

Time is very important topic in the world of philosophy, as well as in our daily life. This paper has tried to give an account of the Lokayata concept of Ome. To explain this, it is discussed at first about the various pictures of time, depending on various belief of Ome. Then it is discussed here regarding the Lokayata rejecOon of prevailing social condiOon, and as a result the Lokayata acceptance of linear Ome, denying the notion of cyclic time.To establish the notion of linear time, it is analysed by the Lokayata about their acceptance of mere percepOon and denial of inference as source of valid knowledge. In this context, this arOcle has explained shortly about Jayarasis Ta?vapaplavasim?ha to express the Lokayata method of philosophical thinking. Also to understand clearly the Lokayata noOon of Ome, the controversy of Lokayata school with others schools of Indian Philosophy(as Bouddha,Jaina,Nyaya,AdvaitaVedanta,and Sam?khya) has been discussed shortly in this article. Finally it is concluded that the Lokayata rejecOon of quasi-cyclic time does not mean an acceptence of linear time of industrial capitalism, but it means the acceptance of linear mundane time.

The History of Karnataka is incomplete without making note of the work done by the Christian missionaries. They influenced on the minds of the people through the churches they built, the organizations they established and the institutions they started. Christian missionaries have rendered memorable service to the advancement of the public in general and to the Christian community on particular. Due credit must be given to them for their pioneering work in various fields, in the course of which they helped to raise the community standard of life, to build character and to broaden the outlook on life, because of their principles of love,service,and sacrifice. This paper throws light on the contributions of christian missionaries to the development of karnataka. Christian missionaries were responsible for introduction of printing in Kannada. This helped “classical revival” in Kannada and interest in ancient Kannada literature was on the increase. Study of Kannada at schools, popularization of English literature and western political and philosophical ideas and introduction of the printing brought about the emergence of the Renaissance. The Christian Missionaries who came to India with the sole objective of propagating their faith, found communication as the primary obstacle. Hence, they started mastering the native language and imparting education to the local population without caste or class distinction

Sector-specific funds are volatile as their investments are very narrow and concentrated. Since the investment is focused mainly on one sector, the risk is definitely higher. Therefore, sector-specific funds generally attract risk-takers who are aggressive. These funds are for savvy and seasoned investors who are familiar with equities and understand the unique investment proposition offered by such funds. ‘Direct Plan’ has a lower expense ratio than the ‘Regular Plan’ because of the non-involvement of the intermediaries. As a result, the returns from the ‘Direct Plan’ are on the higher side than that of the ‘Regular Plan’ due to the absence of the intermediary commission. But investment in the ‘Direct Plan’ requires substantial skill and knowledge.

The Indian Banking Industry is full of competition due to liberalization and its performance is the vital indicator of economic performance of the country. Employee productivity is an important criterion to measure the performance of banks. So the present paper intends to analyze employee productivity of sixteen private sector banks during the second reform phase. The parameters used to depict employee productivity are net profit per employee, spread per employee, interest income per employee, total expenditure per employee and deposits per employee. The tools used to measure employee productivity include Herfindahl’s Index of Concentration and Exponential Growth Rate (EGR). The result depicts that Federal bank occupies the first rank in terms of net profit per employee and spread per employee because the Exponential Growth Rate of Federal Bank is highest among all the private sector banks with respect to these two variables. Among all the banks only IndusInd bank is showing negative exponential growth rate in respect to spread per employee variable. In regard to exponential growth rate of interest income per employee and deposit per employee, South Indian Bank is at first rank. Furthermore with respect to total expenditure per employee Nainital Bank is at top position and IndusInd Bank occupies last rank i.e., it is at better position than other banks.

The words such as globalization liberalization privatization or any country, as development of economy and country go hand in hand. Big corporate emergence with great ambition of making a profit and attaining the world class position give the uneven distribution of profit and wealth. With the help of Earth’s resources industries are making profit no doubt there is climax of information technology, but Earth’s resources must be used for the benefit of the society as a whole. Profit which is earned by the corporate should be used for environmental and economical sustainability. These cannot be only responsibility of government, but demands on effective participation from the corporate and business world. As far as India is concern here, these concepts have very historical background, many examples can quote as a social responsibility in not only the work of government.

In the recent past, organizations and researchers have turned their attention to knowledge management (KM). Many disciplines have contributed to the growth and evolution of knowledge management. Consequently, KM has become a rich field of inquiry, and many disparate approaches and strategies have been suggested for managing knowledge. However, the effect of different KM strategies on organizational performance (OP) is not known. Knowledge which is an intellectual capital is also assumed as value creator and knowledge management is seen as a competitive tool for value creation and addition. Knowledge is formalizing and also systematically organizing the experience and expertise that create new capabilities, enable superior performance, encourage innovation, and enhance customer value. The three fourth of world’s corporate market value resides today in assets such as intellectual property, customer data, financial records, strategies and trade secrets.

Communication is a process of transfer of information through vocal, written, visual or non-verbal media. Being able to communicate effectively is the most important of all life skills that can improve all aspects of a student’s life. The present study attempts to measure undergraduate students’ perception of classroom communication barriers and their attitude towards communication skills, and tries to detect their relationship. Data was collected from 204 undergraduate students of general degree colleges under Vidyasagar University of West Bengal randomly. The tools used to collect data were: ‘Perception of Classroom Communication Barriers’ (reliability=0.632) and ‘Attitude towards Communication Skills’ (reliability=0.642). The students were found to experience moderate to low level of perceived classroom communication barriers (mean=63.324, SD=8.88). Also they had strong positive attitude towards communication skills (mean=79.108, SD=6.94). Significant and negative correlation was found between the perception of classroom communication barriers and attitude towards communication skills (r=-0.210). In this regard, the coefficients of correlation for the perception of physical and psychological barriers were significant whereas the other two coefficients (perception of language and background barriers) were not significant. Further, 4.4% of the variance in the students’ perception of classroom communication barriers could be explained through the attitude towards communication skills. The mathematical model was found to be significant at 0.05 level (F=9.308). A regression equation was also developed accordingly to predict the perception of classroom communication barriers from the attitude towards communication skills. This study may prove its importance to detect the existence of different classroom communication barriers among the students across different grade levels, and to find out ways to minimize these barriers by improving their communication skills.

Though drama is prominent literary form, it does depend on non-literary accessories like stage, actors and spectators, for its survival and success. Like any other form of art, drama attempts to present the emotional content of life, but as it does this function with the help of non-art paraphernalia, many times drama also is described as a composite art. This is an indication to suggest or even to assert that drama is inseparably linked with stage, actors and spectators. It is true this organic and vital connection with the stage, actors and spectators is essential at least at the time of its composition. The playwright must be aware of the social ethos and the pulse of the people, and to make his presentation of life appropriate and lively, he expresses it through the popular idiom i. e. dialogue. Actually the part played by dialogue in drama need not be over-emphasised. A proper dialogue is needed not only to establish the necessary relationship between the actors and the audience, but also to justify that the vision of life presented on the stage is a lively image. To achieve this a playwright wants to grasp the contemporaray idiom and to transform it into an affective means of creation and communication. A cursory review of the successful ages of drama would reveal that, whenever the popular idiom could be transformed and transported by the dramatist on to the stage the popular taste welcomed it. It is repeatedly proved that the form of drama as a real depiction of contemporary life, as an authentic voice of contemporary ethos, and also as an aesthetic form blending art with popular taste, draws its vitality from dialogue.
