CONCEPT OF NATIVISM: THEORETICAL PREMISES |
Author : Dr . Sanjay Thorat |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :British rule produced lasting changes in Indian society and culture. It resulted in fundamental
changes in the old institutions, in the name of modern civilization. Consequently, in India, western
modernization ignoring one’s tradition, perpetuated colonization and intellectual slavery. For example, in
India, the political system was adopted on the model of British Parliamentary system (Gandhi in his Hind
Swaraj called it a sterile woman and a prostitute). On the other hand, it has overlooked and suppressed our
traditional structure of autonomy and decentralization. That is to say, being slaves we were not in a position
to decide for ourselves, which native elements need to be modernized, or which western elements need to be
borrowed and nativised for the efficient functioning of traditional systems. |

SEARCH OF WORLD PEACE |
Author : K. Krishnaveni and Dr. M. Jothilaksmi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Why is there so much conflict, division and suffering in this world? Those who have striven for peace
are rarely celebrated or praised for their efforts even less imitated. Consider that real world peace or peace
on Earth is an ideal state of freedom, peace, and happiness among and within all nations and peoples. This
ideal of world non-violence provides a basis for peoples and nations to willingly cooperate, either voluntarily
or by virtue of a system of governance that prevents warfare. While different cultures, religions, philosophies,
and organizations may have differing concepts about how such an ideal state might come about, they have
in common this ideal of a cessation of all hostility amongst all humanity. World Peace could be established
through religious or secular organizations that address to human rights, technology, education, engineering,
medicine, or diplomacy used as an end to all forms of fighting. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The present work describes the execution of the treatment using acrylic sealant in fissures of
buildings constructed with a structural ceramic block in the city of Manaus-AM. The adopted method aims to
show efficacy in the treatment of this type of pathology. Located near the line of the equator, region more
affected by the rays of sun and in many times of the year with the temperature varying between 35º and 37º,
factors that favor the appearance of cracks of retraction in the mortar bringing visual discomfort and often
the devaluation in real estate, the appearance of cracks and fissures is very common in buildings in this
region of the country. The retraction is nothing more than the volume reduction process that occurs in the
cement mass due to the loss of excess water from the mixture by the evaporation process. The use of Acrylic
Sealant aims to eliminate this problem and ensure that it ensures the desired long term result. It was
observed from the appearance of the pathology after 30 days of external plaster applied, until 10 months
after the treatment with the acrylic product and it was concluded that the use of this was effective and
satisfactory, besides being easy to apply and to have low cost. |

Author : Wesley Gomes Feitosa and MariaVictória Quiñónez Mendonza |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Diante do problema da poluição ambiental, decorrente do manejo inadequado de resíduos sólidos no
contexto da infraestrutura instalada nos portos públicos da cidade de Manaus, surge a principal questão
desta pesquisa, que é como contribuir para a melhoria da infraestrutura de gestão de resíduos sólidos com
uma proposta de gestão integrada baseada na educação ambiental a ser desenvolvida nos portos públicos
da cidade de Manaus? Nessa linha, o objetivo foi contribuir com uma proposta de gestão integrada voltada
para o derretimento da gestão de resíduos sólidos com base na educação ambiental a ser desenvolvida pelos
portos públicos em Manaus. Os autores que apoiaram este trabalho com suas teorias foram: Bortolon(2014),
Freire (2001), Frésca (2007), Lajonquière(1997) e Milaré(2001). A abordagem metodológica teve as seguintes
características: para o seu nível, é descritiva, pois a sua abordagem quantitativa, a fim de verificar o nível de
conscientização dos usuários sobre questões ambientais na área portuária por seu tipo de corte é transversal.
O instrumento utilizado para coleta dos dados foi um questionário com questões fechadas para serem
processadas pela escala deLikert. O resultado deste estudo pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento de outras
pesquisas sobre infraestrutura portuária e educação ambiental nos portos de Manaus. As principais
conclusões desta investigação permitem afirmar que a manutenção da infraestrutura portuária livre de
poluição depende da conscientização de todos, usuários, funcionários, autoridades, ou seja, é um
compromisso de todos que frequentam, trabalham e visitam os portos, Por isso, é importante que tudo, mas
também depende de uma gestão adequada que integra a tomada de decisão de todos para adotar boas
práticas que possam reverter a situação atual. Para alcançar essa mudança esperada, isso só será possível
através de um processo de educação ambiental implementado de maneira adequada no contexto portuário
de Manaus. |

Author : Dr. Manju Arora |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Aggression is a general feature of human beings, a potential condition which can be activated fast or
slow and it may take various forms of manifestation. In sports, where the main characteristic is the
competition itself, the essential coordinates of the existence are: rivalry, direct confrontation with the
opponents, desire to win and optimal activation. Today, the increasing number and frequency of aggressive
acts occurring on or around the sports ground, makes us wonder where or which are the limits of
combatively. This situation also demands a good understanding of deep psychological connotations of such
behaviour. This paper aims to throw light on the reasons for the existence and persistence of such behaviour
and possible remedies to deal with the same. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :This paper tries to highlight the status of dalit women in India in a fastly globalizing world. The
distressing effects of the caste system on the educational, social, and economical status of Dalit women in
modern India. The aim of the paper is to highlight the strict reality of the suppression, struggle and suffering
Dalit women face every day of their miserable lives. The hardships of Dalit women are not simply due to their
poverty, economic status, or lack of education, but are a direct result of the simple exploitation and
destruction by the upper classes, which is authorized by Hindu religious scriptures. Dalit women of India have
been living in the culture of quiet throughout the centuries. They have remained silencer expectations to their
exploitation, oppression and barbarity against them. They do not have any control over their own frames,
earnings, and lives. The extreme expression of violence, exploitation and cruelty against them is visible in
forms of hunger, malnutrition, disease, physical and mental pain, rape; illiteracy, ill-health, unemployment,
insecurity and inhuman treatment. The collective forces of Feudalism, Casteism, and patriarchy have made
their lives just a hell. An overwhelming majority of them live under the most hazardous conditions. In the

ERROR-TOLERANT RESOURCE ALLOCATION AND PAYMENT MINIMIZATION IN CLOUD SYSTEM |
Author : Roopa R. L |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Resources in cloud system can be partitioned and provisioned on
demand to different users with virtual machine technology. Sharing of
resources among different users can lead to performance inaccuracies
due to which efficient resource allocation and guaranteeing tasks
execution is must in cloud systems. Different resources and services have
different payment and time frame demand in cloud. With virtual machine
(VM) technology being increasingly mature, compute resources in cloud
systems can be partitioned in fine granularity and allocated on demand.
In this work a solution which combines two techniques in order to
guarantee execution of tasks within specified time deadline and try to
minimize cost by using cost threshold. Equally spread current execution load and optimise response time
these are the two techniques used to implement the system. A toolkit called CloudSim is used to support both
system and behavior modeling of Cloud System components such as data centers, virtual machines (VMs)
and resource provisioning policies. It implements generic application provisioning techniques that can be
extended with ease and limited effort. In future, the proposed work can be incorporated with stricter/original
deadlines into some excellent management tools like OpenNebula, for maximizing the system-wide
performance. |

Author : Janeide Alexandre Dantas , Claúdio Nahum Alves |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Para um bom desenvolvimento das crias de abelhas é necessária uma alimentação composta de
proteínas, carboidratos, minerais, lipídios, vitaminas e água. Os carboidratos são encontrados no néctar na
forma de açúcar, enquanto todos os outros nutrientes são encontrados no pólen. A coleta destes alimentos
durante a estação de seca, onde há certa carência de pólen, afeta diretamente o desenvolvimento da
colmeia. Desta maneira, a colônia entra em declínio prejudicando a produção de mel. Diante da escassez de
recursos florais, o alimento torna-se insuficiente para as colônias necessitando fornecer alimentação artificial
às abelhas. Duas colmeias da espécie Melipona seminigra foram submetidas aos dois tipos de alimentação
(natural e artificial) no período de 10 meses. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estabelecer comparações entre os
méis e verificar se as amostras estão em conformidades com a legislação brasileira. Na metodologia foram
analisados parâmetros físico-químicos (açúcares redutores, umidade, sólidos insolúveis totais, pH, a cor,
sólidos solúveis totais, viscosidade, acidez, condutividade elétrica e densidade) e estatísticas de multivariadas
(teste t student). Foram encontrados alguns parâmetros físico-químicos analisados nas amostras de
alimentação artificial que não estava em conformidade com a legislação brasileira para padronização da
qualidade do mel como os sólidos insolúveis totais e acidez enquanto as amostras da alimentação natural
que não estão dentro do limite da legislação vigente brasileira foram os açúcares redutores, acidez e sólidos
solúveis totais.

Author : Sr. Manju Jacob and Dr. Sujarani Mathew |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :In Christian concept water has a power to cleanse the world from its sins. Water symbolizes the
spiritual cleansing that comes with the acceptance of God’s offer of salvation.It can be the source of eternal
life. In Christianity, baptism represents birth by water. In every Christian Churches we can see this ceremony
to attain the Kingdom of God. Baptism signifies the death of the sinful life and the rebirth in Jesus Christ. It
helps us to liberate ourselves from the sin which separate us from God and lead us to the union with Him.
Water in baptism, washes our dirt and fills the emptiness in us. As baptism in Christianity symbolizes the
burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, through baptism one can identify himself with the death and
resurrection of Jesus. One can bury his old ways of life and can start a new life through baptism. This paper is
an attempt to study Flannery O’Connor’s short story “The River”in the light of Christian baptism. Mrs.Connin,
a babysitter, leads Harry Ashfield, a five year old boy to a healing at the river. While they reaches the river,
the preacher gives the message that there is only one river, ‘The River of Life’ and it is made from the blood of
Jesus Christ. We can lay our sufferings and pain in this river of life and can gain the Kingdom of Christ. The
boy is attracted by his preaching and baptize himself in the river. Here he is participating in the death and
resurrection of Jesus Christ not only in the spiritual sense, but also in the literal sense. His belief is that by
losing his life, he can attain the Kingdom of God. |

RE-ESTABLISHING BLACK COMMUNITY’S CULTURAL IDENTITIES THROUGH DIASPORIC ETHNICITY IN BROWN GIRL, BROWNSTONES |
Author : Sutapa Pal and Dr. C.S. Robinson |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Colonialism has destroyed the economic, political and social autonomy of African men and women.
Both sexes were exploited under the capitalistic and racist system which denied honour and respect given to
celebrate their indigenous environments. It is African woman that Marshall propagates in her fiction.
Marshall depicts how through the constituents of feminine strength individuality and communal
empowerment, black women are empowered to ward off the marginalisation of social, political and
economic situation in which they find themselves. The imposed standards of myth regarding assimilation and
matriarchy surrounding black women by Anglo American society have prevented them from enjoying beauty,
feminism and psychological well being, it also negates them from enjoying motherhood. She also talks about
how black women forges ahead resisting the enforcement of limitations imposed upon them by white
women. Through Marshall’s work, she shows that black women transcend the barriers through the courage
gained from their heritage and flexibility of their worlds. Through their dual consciousness, they discover new
horizons. Marshall fuses western images and structures in her novels to designate the fact that she is the
product of both the Old world and the New. However she prioritizes her identity as a woman of African
descent in Western hemisphere. Through her characters who are multi-ethnic, she figures the cosmological
wholeness by valuing cultural difference as a celebration of triumph of human spirit. |

Author : Smt. Savita D. Khanapuri and Dr. S. G. Kulkarni |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Khadi and Village Industries are an integral part of the wide spectrum of small scale industrial sector
in the Indian rural economy. They play a strategic role in the restructuring and in the transform action of the
economy with comparatively higher –labour-capital ratio and a shorter gestation period. These units operate
relatively in small markets. Khadi and Village industries involve lower investment and greatly suit the
economics of developing countries like India, which are capital deficient and labour abundant. These
industries stimulate growth of entrepreneurship and promote a defused pattern of ownership and location
they make use of more unskilled labour force and have direct impact on poverty alleviation they have the
spread effect on domestic market since they buy more of domestic inputs and indigenous raw materials and
domestic technology to a large extent being labour intensive these industries have immense potential for
generating employment this increase the significance of khadi and village industries . |

involvement, knowledge and sensitivity. In order to make the organization successful, teacher should have a
sense of job involvement and job satisfaction. Job involvement is a significant job related behavior. It shows
the degree to which an individual is personally involved with his job. If the teachers are highly involved
towards their job, they can produce good results in their professional life. Job satisfaction is very essential
trait to do their job with utmost dedication. The job satisfaction of teachers particularly at secondary level is
very vital. The value of higher secondary education is undeniable; it is very important to provide teachers
with the utmost facilities so that they must be satisfied with the status of their job. The highlighted topic is a
very serious issue due to the importance of secondary education which is central stage of the whole pyramid
of education system in the world. Job satisfaction of teachers depends on Salary, Working time, Professional
growth etc. They won’t show truancy, absenteeism and lack of duties towards their organization. While on

IMPACT OF MOTIVATIONAL FACTORS AND SELF-REGULATED LEARNING STRATEGIES AND MATHEMATICS ACHIEVEMENT OF SCHOOL STUDENTS |
Author : Dr. K. Jayaraman and V. Devi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Many psychologists believe that motivation plays an important role in learning. If that is the case, in
institutes of higher education where students are expected to be self-directed in their learning, motivation
becomes an essential element. Though aspects of motivation and learning have been studied quite
extensively in the West, to date there is a dearth of research in this area in India. Therefore, this study can
help students to regulate their learning behavior and to take responsibility for their own learning. Also they
have to make decisions in such a way which will help them to accomplish their learning tasks. So the level of
motivation may play an important role in the way they attend to these learning tasks. Also this study is
important as it addresses educators, teachers and parents about improving students’ achievement through
fostering their patterns of factors and behaviors which subsequently improve their well-being. The sample for
the present investigation included eight standard students in Tamilnadu. The study considered English
medium schools and 300 students were included. Method of the study was descriptive survey. It
recommendations on a study that set out to understand the relationship between motivational factors and
self-regulated learning strategies and academic achievement of school students. |

ANTI - SECOND WORLD WAR EFFORT INDIVIDUAL SATYAGRAHA IN TAMIL NADU – A SCRUTINY |
Author : T. Sivakamasundari |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Formally, the Second World War started in September 1939. The Indian National Congress felt that
British was fighting a War for the defense of British Empire and not for to save democracy in India. Congress
reacted against the British as which were dragging India into the war unilaterally. It instructed all the
Congress Ministries in India to resign. Consequently, the Government of Madras headed by C.
Rajagopalachari resigned on 30 October 1939. The Madras Government took charge of the official
machinery as well as its legislature. Meanwhile, Gandhi had long been preparing for this Individual of Civil
Disobedience. He had in fact taken more than a year to reach a decision on the Individual Satyagraha
Movement. He had a clear-cut plan in starting and conducting this symbolic movement, which was to
vindicate the principle of non-violence. In keeping with this principle, he took all care to keep the movement
“within limits and absolutely innocuous”. Keen on quality instead of quantity, Gandhi expected a prospective
Satyagraha to suspend all private activities and to keep a log book of their daily activities in furtherance of
the constructive programme which was the foundation of civil disobedience. It was a severe preliminary test
for the Satyagrahis. It was decided to grant permission to offer Satyagraha to deserving persons only after an
examination of their logbooks. |

PRESERVATION OF MOUNUMENTS (TEMPLES): A PHILOSOPHICAL AND CULTURAL PERSPECTIVE |
Author : R. Mahalakshmi and Dr. V. Raju |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The temples commonly known as Mandir in Hindi and derived from the Sanskrit word Mandira, are
identified by several names in different parts of India as koil or kovil in Tamil, devasthana in Kanada and
devalaya, in Telugu 99 etc. In general, the structure of the temple can either be isolated structure or a part of
complex. The temple is the place where the culture and philosophies of the humanity is portrayed beautifully.
The character of Hindu temples reflected local architecture styles and the material and skills to which they
related. The main forms and styles of the Hindu temple were established during 600-800 AD. The cell or
shrine, the garbhagriha (usually square in plan), housed the image and was approached through a
calumniated porch or mandapa. The shrine was roofed with a pyramidal spire or vertically attenuated dome
like structure known as sikhara. The temple was raised on a massive plinth and was often surrounded by
subsidiary shrines and by an enclosing wall pierced by one or more gigantic gateway towers or gopurams. It
is the outline and detailing of the sikhara and other roof-forms which determine the character of
monumental Hindu architecture and give a formal as opposed to historical basis for it classification.

A STUDY ON GREEN PURCHASING BEHAVIOUR OF YOUNG CONSUMERS IN PERIYANAYAKKANPALAYAM (COIMBATORE DISTRICT) |
Author : Mrs. T. Chitrakala and Dr. K . Singaravelu |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Protection of environment is an issue of key concern which has permeated into all spheres of life.
Consumers are increasingly becoming concerned about the environment and various issues related to it at
the global level. This change has encouraged a couple of organizations and has also compelled many
organizations to respond with ‘environmentally’ friendly products. Green marketing is perceived as an
opportunity by many organizations to achieve their long term goals. Green strategy can be effectively
implemented only by persuading the consumers to buy green products. Hence the indepth study on green
purchasing behaviour and their attitude towards green products is of crucial importance today. The focus on
young consumers is understandable as this group is representing a new generation of consumers with a
strong potential impact on green environment. Hence 130 young consumers of green products in the age
group of 18–25 years in Periyanayakkanpalayam (Coimbatore) are selected as sample by adopting snow ball
random sampling method. The primary data are collected directly from the respondents through a structured
questionnaire. Secondary data are collected from journals and websites. Statistical tools like simple
percentages, weighted mean score, Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation and Two-way ANOVA are used to
analyse data. It is found from the analysis that ‘Consumer Beliefs’, ‘Environmental Attitude’, and ‘Social
Influence’ have a positive influence on the green purchasing behaviour. The influential factor on green
purchasing behaviour namely ‘Consumer Beliefs’, ‘Environmental Attitude’, ‘Social Influence’ and ‘Quality of
Products’ are significantly related with the overall green purchasing behaviour of the respondents. The
findings of the study also insist the importance of educating the young consumers about the green
environment. Hence if the suggestions given in the study are carried out both by the marketers and the young
consumers, definitely India will shine as super power in the years to come. |

CARVAKAS ON DOUBT OF DEVIATION: A CRITIQUE |
Author : Sm. Jhumpa Bagchi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The Carvaka system of Indian Philosophy cherished doubt of deviation which is called
vyabhicarasamka in the relation of vyapti between probans and probandum (hetu and sadhya).Normally
where there is hetu, there is sadhya. This invariable relation is technical vyapti or pervasion. The Carvakas are
of the view that in future there is no guarantee that a hetu and a sadhya will remain together. If a hetu
(smoke for example) remains without a sadhya (fire) then it is called deviation or vyabhicara. Considering
such possibilities in view the Carvakas nourish some sort of doubt of such deviation. Let us see how they
substantiate their standpoint. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Human imagination is involved in light and shadows, in presence and absence, in doubt and
certainty- man carries on the mystery to be solved: that of imagination in continuous labour, through the
ages, exciting, in uninterrupted activity, the curiosity of men, avidin knowing and in revealing themselves.
The Great Gatsby is thematically based on the concept of the American dream in general, and the
degenerated 1920’s vision of it particular. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s view and ideas about women changed, and in
what degree, throughout his career. He examined the effects of social changes and tradition, as well as social
classes, money and work, showing more and more insight as his career went on. The paper aims to study by a
feminist approach the formation and understanding of virginity as a social constructed concept. It will also
focus on the patriarchal attitudes about gender roles, women sexuality, the cult of women’s virginity and the
honour and shame associated with it and also study sexual violence committed by the patriarchy on women’s
mind and body in the novel. |

(2+1) DIMENSIONAL DOMAIN WALL COSMOLOGICAL MODEL IN THE ?)? ,?( GRAVITATION THEORY |
Author : G. R. Avachar |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :In this paper we have investigated cosmological model in the frame work of (2+1) dimensional spacetime
in ?(?, ?) theory of gravitation in presence of domain wall, where ? is Ricci scalar curvature and ? is
the trace energy momentum tensor. The functional form ?(?, ?) = ? + 2? ,?with ? being a constant is
chosen for derivation and analysis of the field equation of ?(?, ?) gravity. The solution of the field equations
are obtained by using the special law of variation for Hubble’s parameter proposed by M.S. Berman (1983)
that yields a constant deceleration parameter. The physical and kinematical parameters of the model are
discussed. The model is tested for physically acceptable cosmologies by using stability. It is observed that
acceleration is due to gravitation and also observed that the model is expanding and remains isotropic
throughout the evolution. |

Author : Md. Shahid Alam |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Human trafficking is becoming third most lucrative business after arms and drugs trafficking in
worldwide including India. The root cause of human trafficking is poverty and unemployment, corruption,
lack of education etc. In India especially Bihar poverty and unemployment is a common phenomenon and
people are compelled to live in miserable conditions. In search of better life people migrate from Bihar to big
cities and pray in the hand of traffickers. Due to poverty and unemployment the vulnerable sections of the
people are easily trapped in to the hand of traffickers. The human trafficking situation in Bihar is worst than
other parts of India. Although Bihar government has made several efforts to combat human trafficking but
due to corruption in judiciary police, half hearted drive of rescue and rehabilitation, the results do not come
out in a positive manner. Though the government has made several judicious provisions on the issue but it

UNEMBELLISHED EXPOSURE OF CONTEMPORARY ISSUES OF MODERN INDIA THROUGH ARAVIND ADIGA’S SELECT NOVELS |
Author : A. Gandhimathi and Dr.P.Santhi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Aravind Adiga, one of the pioneering writers in modern India was born in India and had his education
in three nations namely, Australia, America and England. His experience as a journalist added fuel in
depicting the other side of the nation in his literary creations. Aravind Adiga’s fictions cover almost every
aspect of social life. Adiga is very sharp and deliberate in casting the absolute and stark realities that the new
India witnesses. The pertinent issues prevalent in Modern India are well brought out by Adiga. Holding the
pride and glory of winning the Man Booker prize for “The White Tiger” in 2008 which portrays India with all
her complexities attributed due to globalization, Adiga’s third work “Last Man in Tower” (2011) also brings to
lime light the real estate scandals in Mumbai. The writer condemns and satirises the false notions that is
conceived in the minds of many as a new transformed India. The main issue addressed by Adiga in both the
novels is the contrast between India’s economical growth and the real condition of middle and deprived
people who live in juxtaposed conditions. This paper presents an unembellished exposure of contemporary
issues like corruption, the weird politics, the poor medical treatments, the lust and greed for acquisition of
money, the poverty experienced by the deprived, the loss of human values, caste and class unfairness etc.,
through Aravind Adiga’s “The White Tiger” and “Last Man in Tower”. |

of the reproductive health of a female and the menstrual cycle starts in the adolescent period. Menstruation
and menstrual practices are still bounded by socio-cultural restriction and taboos.This taboos and restrictions
result theadolescent girls to remain ignorant of scientific facts of menstruation and hygienic practices, and
suffer with Reproductive Tract Infections. The first menstruation is often horrifying and traumatic to an
adolescent girl because it usually occurs without her knowing about it. Several research studies have revealed
this gab and they indicated that there was a low level of awareness about menstruation among the girls.
Increased knowledge about menstruation right from childhood may escalate safe practices and may help in
mitigating the suffering of millions of women.Increase in knowledge and change in attitude and practice are
mostly depend upon the information received, the group affiliation and education of the adolescent girls. The
first information they receive about menstruation is form their mother followed by their peer group
members. If the mothers are not literate and have little knowledge of the physiological cycle of menstruation
then the adolescent may not receive right information of menstruation and hygienic practices. Hence this
study aims 1.to find out the Knowledge, attitude and practice of menstrual hygiene, 2.the association
between unawareness and poor menstrual hygiene practices of adolescent girlsand the poor educational
status of parents and 3.the myths, misconceptions and restriction practices imposed upon the adolescent
girls. The study design is descriptive cross sectional study conducted inin the rural area of Kasavanampatti
village at Dindigul District by using structured questionnaire.98 adolescent girls were the respondents of the
study.The findings of the present study showed that the mothers of the adolescent girls were the primary
source of information regarding menstruation, for the majority of the respondents. Mothers of adolescent
girls were ignorant about informing daughters about menstruation prior to menarche.Lack of sufficient
knowledge and awareness among adolescent girls regarding menstruation can be due to the low level of
education among themselves and their mothers. |

Abstract :Public expenditure is the expenditures are incurred by the public authorities like Central, state and
Local government’s either for the satisfaction of collective needs of the citizen or for the promotion of
economic and social welfare. The classical economists did not look the various effects of public expenditure,
Prof. R.A. Musgrave, a Modern Economist, and Advocated that public expenditure should deal with many
activities such as Allocation of resources, distribution resources and maintain stability in the economy. As a
result, the public expenditure has been increasing during the last few decades and the modern economists
have been started analyzing the effects of public expenditure on production, distribution and standard of
living in the economy. This study has two objectives first one is to examine the trend and growth of public
expenditure in India for the period 1980-81 to 2015-16 and second one is to analyze the impact of public
expenditure on gross domestic product in India. The study reveals that the annual growth rate of revenue
expenditure was higher as against the capital expenditure during the same period. The annual growth rate of
non-plan expenditure was registered to be higher than that of plan expenditure in India and finally empirical
results reveal the positive impact of public expenditure on Gross Domestic Product. |

Author : Mrs K.Pushpavalli1 and Dr.L.Ganesan |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Energy is central to the economic growth in all the sectors including agriculture. This study focuses on
the agricultural energy usage for agricultural production in states of India and the growth performance of
agriculture production in India during 2005-06 to 2017-18. This study has planned to make an analysis of the
agriculture production output and the agriculture energy (input) use in states of India to know about the role
of energy consumption by agriculture sector for its growth.This study focuses on major energy (inputs)
namely electricity, fertilizer, pesticides and machinery use in agriculture activities only. The objectives of this
study are to identify the energy use pattern in agriculture sector in states of Indiaduring the period between
2005-06 and 2016-17 andto study about the effect of energy use in agriculture on its growth in various states
of India. The present study is based on the secondary sources of information, taken from the various year of
Agriculture Statistical at a Glance Reports and ICAR (Indian Agricultural Statistics Research Institute) –
Agricultural Research Data Book 2017. The researchers have used CAGR and percentage to find out the
growth performance of selected energy and the food grains crops. The study claims that the energy use plays
a significant role in the production and productivity of agricultural output. Therefore steps must be taken to
improve energy use in agricultural sector and get optimized benefits. Based on the findings, the study
suggests that the timely availability of agriculture energy like short lifespan of adequate irrigation facilities
and new variety of seeds, introduction of modern mechanization, enough electricity voltage and timely

Author : S. Khootizal Kubara and Prof. M. Chinnaswamy Naidu |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The theory of production plays a pivotal role in theory of firm. The theory of firm deals is related with
level of output it will produce to maximize profits. The firm’s marginal and average cost of production
decides the profits maximizing output besides the demand conditions. In addition to the prices of inputs, the
changes in marginal and average costs of production as a result of increase in output determined by the
physical relationship between inputs and output. His study found workers influenced output in machinery
equipment other than transport equipment industry in post globalization period. The output growth is
influenced for fixed capital in pre globalization period. The results shows in pre globalization period factories
were influenced output growth in Beverages and iron pipes and related products, Wood and wood products,
Paper and paper products, basic chemical industry and transport industry. Based on the review of literature
several studies have been undertaken on the performance of industrial production. The present study is a
small attempt in this direction. As the calculated t-value of ductile iron pipes is 8.607, liquid metal from MBF
is 9.141 and cement is 2.368 which is more than the table value at the rate of 0.01, 0.05 levels of significance.

Abstract :Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most general neurobehavioral disorder of
childhood. It is also among the prevalent chronic health conditions affecting school-aged children. ADHD
refers to a family of related chronic neurobiological disorder that interferes with an individual’s capacity to
regulate activity level (hyperactivity), inhibit behaviour (impulsivity), and attend to tasks (inattention) in
developmentally appropriate ways Students with ADHD are often energetic, creative, and good problemsolvers.
They need support with sensory assimilation, idea, and social communication. Learning is
personalized; students receive a customized learning to experience. Students learn at their individual speed
with organization and maintain in challenging areas. Learning aligns with security, requirements and skills,
and takes position in an appealing environment where students gain a better understanding of their
strengths. To get an idea of personalized learning is, try to picture a classroom that doesn’t have a “one size
fits all” approach to education. The teacher doesn’t guide all students through the same lessons. Instead, the
teacher guides each student on an individualized journey. What, when, where and how of learning is tailored
to meet each student’s strengths, skills, needs and interests. “Overall” the researcher to investigate the

MENTAL HEALTH OF TEACHERS IN THE 21st CENTURY |
Author : Selvi Samuel and Dr. M.V. Sudhakaran |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Teaching is one of what researchers call “at risk professions” - where individuals are prone to stress
and burnout which affects their mental health. Teaching is normally characterized by long working hours, a
lack of job security, and constant complaint of low wages and demands of the parents, management and
students. Some of the common reasons that affect a teacher are, student indifference, discipline problems in
classrooms, overcrowded classrooms, excessive administrative tasks and excessive testing and correction
work. Additionally teachers burn out when they feel they are no longer educating and inspiring students.
Thus, three main reasons for a teacher to feel stressed and burst out are when ‘a teacher lacks recognition’,
‘a teacher is overworked’ and ‘a teacher does not see the possibility of a change or improvement. Research
shows that the Mental Health of Teachers is affected and greater when people workers are young and lower
for older staff. A younger staff usually has less experience than the older ones (Maslach 2003). Research
findings also indicate that the demands of being a professional educator in the 21st century is stressful. The
21st century expects teachers to be critical thinkers who have good problem solving skills. The teacher is
expected to collaborate and have good leadership skills. The teacher is expected to have good
communication skills, and also good analytical skills. More than one third of the teachers leave the field
within the first five years according to Educationworld.com |

Author : Kamalaxi Tadasad |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The difference between representation and representativeness is much in terms of quality and
texture and not so much in terms of quantity. However this thin veil of difference makes a colossal difference

CULTURAL DISPLACEMENT AND IDENTITY CRISIS IN JHUMPHA LAHIRIS THE NAMESAKE |
Author : Dr. N. Nagabhushanam |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Diaspora Theory with its various features has influenced the literature of every nation. This literature
is widely known as Expatriate or Diasporic Literature. It would be proper to examine features and aspects of
such literature in which Indian Writing in English has not only contributed greatly, but also received
international recognition and admiration in the past few years. Diasporic Literature is an umbrella term that
includes all those literary works written by the authors outside their native country. But these works are
associated with native culture and background. In this context, all those writers who write outside their
country can be called diaspora writers. But they remained related to their homeland through their works.
Diasporic literature has its roots in the sense of loss and alienation, which emerged as a result of migration
and expatriation. Generally, diasporic literature deals with alienation, displacement, existential rootlessness,
nostalgia, quest of identity. It also addresses issues related to amalgamation or disintegration of cultures. It
reflects the immigrant experience that comes out of the immigrant settlement. The immigrants, whatever
their reason for migration be, financial, social, political, no matter whether they migrated for trade and
commerce, as religious preachers, as laborers, convicts, soldiers, as expatriates or refugees, exiles, or as
guest workers in search of better life and opportunities have shared some common things as well as
differences which are based on their conditions of migration and period of stay in the adopted land. Mostly
the migrants suffer from the pain of being far off from their homes, the memories of their motherland, the
anguish of leaving behind everything familiar agonizes the minds of migrants. William Safran has observed
that; “they continue to relate personally or vicariously, to the homeland in a way or another, and their ethniccommunal
consciousness and solidarity are importantly defined by the existence of such a relationship.”

“AN INVESTIGATION OF FACTORS INFLUENCING BRANDS PRESCRIPTION SUBSTITUTION IN PHARMACEUTICAL MARKET IN INDIA” |
Author : Dr. Hemant Katole |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Two drug products are deemed to be pharmaceutical equivalents if they have the same active
ingredient, strength or concentration, dosage form, and route of administration. They may differ in shape,
scoring design, release mechanisms, packaging, expiration time, and to some extent,
labelling. Pharmaceutical alternatives are defined as drug products that have the same therapeutic moiety,
but are different salts, esters, or complexes of that moiety, or are different dosage forms (eg. immediate
release vs extended release) or strengths. Pharmacists often encounter questions from their patients
concerning differences between branded and generic products. Furthermore, the availability of multiple
generic products for a given branded medication may potentially lead to inappropriate generic substitution.
For example, upon receipt of a prescription for Cardizem CD 240 mg, which does not indicate that the
branded product must be dispensed, a pharmacist may face a dilemma as to which generic diltiazem
products, if any, are suitable for substitution. In order to address these issues, a survey was conducted as to
understand the current scenario for the demand of the Brand Prescription Substitution and a total overview
was analysed on the basis of 205 respondents i.e. Pharmacy Stores. Researcher observed that change in
brand prescription occur mainly because patient wants to buy generic drug and non-availability of brand
strength or formulation of drug. Researcher also observed that change in brand prescription mainly given to
respiratory drug and anti-histamine drug. |

Abstract :Crude oil is an inevitable source of energy for almost all sectors of an economy. Oil is a key strategic
commodity and has its current revolve around power and politics. India became the third largest net importer
of oil, surpassing Japan in recent time followed by US, and China. Crude oil price volatility and its impact on
economy is an important aspect to study. We applied GARCH (1, 1) and TARCH (1, 1) model in a set of six oil
importing and exporting countries. Our findings reveal the impact of oil price on stock price volatility in oil
exporting countries such as Saudi Arabia and UAE, whereas in the case of Russia it is not having any

countries. However, in case of China, which is an oil importing country, neither oil price nor exchange rate
significantly affects stock price volatility. |

A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE FAIRY TALES OF HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN WITH RESPECT TO CHARLES PERRAULT, OSCAR WILDE AND C. S. LEWIS |
Author : Sherly Winfred C. R |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Fairy tales have always been a part of a happy childhood-reading routine in the life of every human
being. In this regard, myriads of legendary fairy tale writers who belong to diverse domains of language have
contributed to the turf of fairy tales. Charles Perrault, Grimm Brothers and Hans Christian Andersen are
considered to be the pioneers of the early tradition of fairy tales. The paper is a meek attempt in comparing
and bringing out the similarities in the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen and three other writers. The aim
of the paper is to offer insight into the identical elements of myth in fairy tales and fantasy fictions which are
passed down to generations after generations of fairy tale writers. The article compares one fairy tale each of
Andersen, to similar tales written by three other authors, and these authors are chosen on the perspective
that they belong to the early, middle and modern age of fairy tale writing respectively.The choice of the
comparative authors is however irrespective of their nationalities. The mainstay of the paper is thus to hold
Andersen as a unique storyteller, universal and ubiquitous in his themes, thereby making him a quintessential
model figure to look upon to for ages to come |

THE ANALYSIS OF THE MEANING EXTENSIONS OF THE DEICTIC MOTION VERB RAFTAN ‘GO’ IN PERSIAN LANGUAGE |
Author : Pouya Pahlevani and Dr. R. Ramakrishna |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Verbs are found to be the most polysemous in Persian language. The senses of the verbs of the
language under investigation are outnumbered because of the uniqueness of the language and its
collocations. By adding any suffix or prefix to a verb and according to the context, the sense and meaning of
it will change. Motion verbs typically focus on parts of the complex Source-Path-Goal schema. To come, to
arrive, to reach and to bring inherently profile the goal of a movement whereas the verbs like to go, to leave,
to depart and to take inherently profile the source of a movement, and to move, to pass, to travel inherently
profile the path of a movement. In the present study, the domain of deictic motion verb raftan ‘go’ in the
framework of cognitive semantics is analyzed in terms of Polysemy and the data used for the study were
gathered from Persian dictionaries that are available and used by the Persian language speaking community. |

ANALYSIS OF SYMETRIC ALGORITHMSDES AND AES IN CLOUD SECURITY |
Author : Dr. Girish Katkar and Ms. Punam R. Naphade |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Cloud computing supports distributed service oriented architecture, multi – users and multi –
domain administrative infrastructure.Cryptography is the science of making data and messages secure by
converting the end user data to be sent into cryptic non – readable form and encrypting or scrambling the
plaintext by taking user data or that referred to as clear text and converting it into cipher text and then
performing decryption which is reverting back to the original plain text.Depending upon the number of keys
used, modern crypto graphic algorithms are classified as asymmetric algorithms (public key) and symmetric
algorithms (secret key). The key length of this calculation is 56 bits; anyway a 64 bits key is really input. DES
is consequently a symmetric key algorithm.Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), otherwise called Rijindael is
utilized for anchoring data. AES is a symmetric square figure that has been examined broadly and is utilized
generally now-a-days. |

INTRODUCTION AND COLLAPSE OF THE ZAMINDARI SYSTEM IN TAMIL COUNTRY |
Author : Samyuktha M. |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The Zamindari System was a popular revenue settlement in Tamil Country in the Nineteenth and
Twentieth Centuries during the Colonial rule. Even though many revenue settlements functioned
simultaneously, this system furnished a fixed revenue to the British Government. This system was introduced
in Tamil Country based on the Bengal model , implemented by Lord Cornwallis. As the land revenue was the
main concer of the British , the imperialists like Lord Wellesley and Lord Edwad Clive took all possible
measures to implement the system not bothering about its practicable difficulties in the dry regions. The
Reports of the Collectors like S.R. Lushington portrayed the real pictures of the dry lands of the southern
Tamil Country where the Poligars dominated . The overassessment of the land and exorbitant exaction of
land revenue paved the way for the practical failure of the Zaminadri System in Tamil Nadu. Among the
Zamindaris, Ramnad and Sivagangai were big and larger Zamins. |

ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND INCLUSION IN VALUE CHAINS FOR POVERTY REDUCTIONS |
Author : Prashanta Chandra Panda |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Growth is essential for survival and a necessary precondition for development of a nation. Sector
specific thrusts emphasised during the planned intervention in the economy for growth affects the
distribution of development. Balanced growth and Big Push Theory model led by Ragnar Nurkse, Paul
Rosenstein Rodan and Unbalanced Growth Theory by Hirschman laid approaches to secure and lead growth.
Now with the integration of the world economy, the competitive mode of production for trade has become
survival mantra / strategy for growth. There is no single theory for administered for growth. Consumption led
growth is every time pushed further to reach the economy’s production potential, ignoring the wastes or
concerns for environment and resources for the future generations. Accommodative policy for raising growth
and for its continuance has replaced the acceptance of fall of the economy size or business cycles. Money and
credit availability (with policy support) are used as the most important/ influential resources to support
growth and to counter any activities to derail growth. The Theory of Circular Causation by Myrdal talks about
positive spread effects of different stages of development between regions (national and international), trade
between industrialized and developing countries. Gunnar Myrdal also warned against the backwash effects
in backward areas and traditional sectors due to modern sectors. So, economic factors need to incorporate
social relations while analyzing factors causing change from initial conditions. |

ATTITUDE OF PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS TOWARDS VALUES : A DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS |
Author : Shivashranappa Sajjan |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The value system is based on individual’s own organization of his attitudes. A value is thought to be
a kind of super attitude at a high level of abstraction. values are cleansing, disciplining and restraining
people’s behaviour and purge society from socio-economic, political, cultural and religious gender bias or
evils. The selection of teachers should be based on qualitative assessment by adopting appropriate tools and
programmes on values. So also in the selection of teachers their attitude towards values should be measured
and considered. Although locale of the institution has some influence on the attitude towards values, gender
and marital status of the teachers have no influence on the attitude towards values among primary school
teachers. |

Abstract :Swami Vivekananda (1863 – 1902), a great thinker and reformer of India, embraces education, which
for him signifies ‘man-making’, as the very mission of his life. In this paper, which purports to expound and
analyze Vivekananda’s views on education, an endeavor has been made to focus on the basic theme of his
philosophy, viz. the spiritual unity of the universe. Whether it concerns the goal or aim of education, or its
method of approach or its component parts, all his thoughts, we shall observe, stem from this dormant
theme of his philosophy which has its moorings in Vedanta. |

BUSINESS SCAMS: THE QUESTION OF PHILOSOPHICAL ETHICS |
Author : Supriya Konai and Soumita Mukherjee |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Ethics is the set of moral principle that governs the sense of right or wrong, good or bad, justice or
injustice of an individual. Ethics is relevant in all aspects of human life. Ethics synonymous with moral
philosophy is that branch of philosophy that deals with the study of right or wrong, good or bad of an
individual conduct. The concept of ‘ethics’ have changed over time. Traditionally the concept use to revolve
around ideas like living a good and happy life (Aristotle), ideal behaviour as a result of acting as per one’s
duty (Kant) etc. With time, the limitations of the traditional concept became quite prominent and
subsequently the concept changed. Modern philosophers and ethicists have divided ethics into three sub
branches namely descriptive ethics, metaethics and normative ethics. Business ethics is a new concept, and
modern philosophers have categorised business ethics as a part of applied ethics which falls under normative
ethics branch. It is the application of the sense of right or wrong, justice or injustice, good or evil in business.
Despite the concept of business ethics, business scams are quite prominent in this world. World scenario
reveals that unethical practices like insider trading, deceptive advertising, basic employee rights, job
discrimination etc are quite frequent and prominent. Some notable scams were Enron scam, WorldCom
scam, Satyam scam, Ketan Parekh scam, Harshad Mehta scam, PNB scam, Saradha Group financial scam and
many more. In this context, the present study is an attempt to analyse as to whether business ethics as talked
about is just a myth or is it really applied in practice. If yes, then the various famous scams show the answer
to be different and if no what are the factors influencing the ethical behaviour of an individual.

SINGLE PHASE GRID CONNECTED FUEL CELL SYSTEM BASED ON BOOST INVERTER |
Author : M. Bharati and Ch.Venkata Rajesh |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The boost-inverter topology is used as a building block for a single-phase grid-connected fuel cell (FC)
system offering low cost and compactness. In addition, the proposed system incorporates battery-based
energy storage and a dc–dc bidirectional converter to support the slow dynamics of the FC. The single-phase
boost inverter is voltage-mode controlled and the dc–dc bidirectional converter is current-mode controlled.
The low-frequency current ripple is supplied by the battery which minimizes the effects of such ripple being
drawn directly from the FC itself. Design guidelines, simulation, and experimental results taken from a
laboratory prototype are presented to confirm the performance of the proposed system. |

DEVELOPMENT IN THE MODERN SHORT STORY THROUGH THE INTERFACE OF GENDER, NATIONALITY AND GENRE WITH REFERENCE TO ALICE MUNROS WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? |
Author : J. H. Hema Ruba |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The historical backdrop of the short story is loaded with logical inconsistency, a trademark which can
be believed to have a two-fold impact on the genre, without a moments delay imbuing the short story form
with a sort of abstract vitality, while in the meantime destabilizing its status in the literary group. For
instance, one hundred years ago, the short story climbed drastically in business achievement just to
experience basic protection from standard acknowledgment. The achievement got from the way that Poes
speculating prompted an acknowledgment of the short story as a positive artistic type while his
identifications of its parts were turned into a recipe utilised by mainstream authors like O. Henry. This
circumstance, in turn, drove to the basic appraisal of the short story as a lesser kind in contrast with poem,
drama, or the novel, similarly as no sooner did the short story secure abstract status when the critics started
to weep over the "decline, the decay, and the senility " of the short story genre. Today, a century after the
regrets of critics and the genres proceeded presence in the shadow of the novel, play and poem, the short
story is said to encounter a renaissance. Maybe the short storys genuine fascination in our period lies in its
constant refusal of generic definition. |

AN ASSESSMENT OF METEOROLOGICAL DROUGHTS IN MAHARASHTRA: A CASE STUDY OF OSMANABAD DISTRICT (2004-2013) |
Author : P. T. Patil , V.A. Chougule and V. H. Mali-Jadhav |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The present research work is associated with meteorological drought assessment ofOsmanabad
district of Maharashtra. With the help of surfer 10 GIS software, 10 years of average annual temperature and
total rainfall gridded Indian Meteorological Department’s (IMD) data (extension 1O
x 1O
) wasgraphically
represented and analyzed to find out the water scarcity areas in Maharashtra state in general and
Osmanabad district in particular. The temperature zones were analyzed by employing 30 years of IMD’s
temperature data with the help of climatograph devised by E.N. Munns. While water budget analysis was
carried out by using 102 years of annual mean rainfall and potential evapotranspiration data. Besides that by
calculating Thornwaite’s total moisture index (TMI), month-wise aridity of the study area was evaluated.
Hence, the study helps to pinpoint the areas of severe meteorological droughts, which later on due to
improper irrigation practices and mismanagement of water resources converted into water scarcity areas
called as droughts prone areas. The western part and the far eastern side of the Maharashtra state received
high annual total rainfall, which is up to 800 mm, as compared to central Maharashtra. Particularly, the
eastern part of Sangli district, Osmanabad district, Latur, Bid, Jalna, Nanded, and Parbhani district were
continuously received average annual temperature above 26O
C and total annual rainfall below 100 mm.
Hence, high average annual temperature and low total annual rainfall created the water deficiency, which
ultimately responsible for drought situation in above-mentioned districts. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The school education in India is struggling with the challenge of poor learning outcomes as shown in
several national reports. The relation between the classrooms’ social environment and students learning
outcomes is supported by a strong number of researches. This paper examines the perceptions of teachers
and students about the social environment of classroom on three dimensions: relationship dimension,
personal growth/goal orientation dimensions and system maintenance and change dimensions. Descriptive

Author : Dr. Sudhir M. Tale |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :It was China, a highly closed economy in the seventies, changed the notion of development by
following liberal policies for attracting foreign investment as means to meet the investment needs and to
accelerate growth of their economy. Investment by FPIs on the other hand, is predominantly in the stock
markets with the purpose of solely trading in shares of companies, and also investment in corporate debt and
government securities. Their objective is to book profits on investments made. The government to facilitate
foreign investment has also introduced fast-track mechanism of the ‘automatic route’ subject to sectoral
capts, for projects which do not require industrial license and not having existing joint venture in India. The
Chinese people though settled overseas still countinue to have their roots for investment matters in China,
which is the missing link in India. Our NRIs, when comes to investment decisions rank other countries higher

Author : Dr. Anup Maji |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :This Paper modestly tries to investigate the actual Investment Opportunities for Registered Closed
Units under Micro and Small Scale Enterprises in West Bengal. Investment may be defined as a commitment
of funds made in the expectations of some positive rate of return, Expectation of returns is an essential
element of an investment. On the other hand, investment is also a commercial activity, wherein investors put
money into something with the hope of a regular profit. The activities involve purchasing of financial
instruments or other assets to gain profitable returns. In the financial sense investment is the commitment of
a person’s fund to derive future income in the form of income, dividend premium , pension benefit , or
appreciation , in the value of their capital example :- purchasing of shares , debentures , post office saving
certificates , insurance policies are all investments in the financial sense such investment generates financial
assets. But in the age of Globalization, Investment policy of recognized or unrecognized sector are facing
some crisis. Some Investor from Indian money market cannot take good opportunities to maximize their
capital by profit. The limit of investment in micro and small Enterprises are determined by the Micro, Small
and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act 2006 is different in service and manufacturing sector.
The investment in micro Enterprises does not exceed twenty five lakh rupees and small Enterprises would be
more than twenty five lakh rupees but does not exceed five crore rupees under manufacturing sector . On the
other way the investment in micro Enterprises does not exceed ten lakh rupees and small Enterprises would
be more than ten lakh rupees but does not exceed two core rupees under service sector . On the basis of the
conduct of 4th all India census of MSME, the number of units identified as the closed ones appeared to be
11,769. Later through a revised communication dated 19.07.2012, number of closed units appeared to be
11,443. It is a golden opportunity for the Investor .But it is completely depends upon Governmental Policy.

been slaved at Travancore in Pre-independence India. Rani Gowry Lakshmi Bai had been supporting the low
class people. India has been suffering from the existence of the caste system. The people were tortured and
mercilessly killed in the name of caste. The caste system had emerged, when the religion started to rule the
people. The Hindu religion was the reason for the existence of the caste system in India. The low class people
were not allowed into the temples, shops, common halls, and public places. The outcast people who violated
the rules were beaten to death. Sometime, the high class people made them to stand in the public places

HONOUR KILLING IN TAMIL NADU: A PSYCHE OF INTO LERENCE |
Author : N. Ramesh Kumar |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Tamil Nadu is the land of social justice, Women equality, emancipation of dalits caste prejudice,
rationalism, war against brahmanical domination, etc. For success of all things, social reformers were
worked, such are, Ayyangali, Ayotidasa Pandithar, Father Periyar, Poet and Freedom Fighter Subramania
Bharathiar, Bharathidasan, and Dr. Muthlakshmi Reddy, The Tamil Society, politically and economically
changed but not socially, because, the Tamil people could not leave the caste psyche. The caste rigidity can
alone project the conventional marriage system, but the modern society had changed their minds by the
impact of science and technology and education. At the same time, the upper and middle class some groups
it is indirectly prevent the changes, finally turned towards the extent of violence inflicted against women
around the world has taken various forms of ranging from domestic violence to sexual violence, forced
marriages to honour killings, forced abortion to female genital mutilation etc. There is no end to these crimes
and every new day, the nature of crime is taking anomalous shapes distorting the lives of innocent women
enhancing the atrocities against them which have engulfed them in the clutches of horrific darkness and fear
emanating from this darkness. Suppression and subjugation of woman by man himself who carries with him
the misconception that ‘she is the one who belongs to him and have full control over her’ has in turn
resulted in legal notions of adultery, seduction and enticement. Fathers, brothers or male members by
exercising their male dominance do not lose any chance of retrieving their daughters or sisters from the male
partner she chose to spend her entire life with. This even crosses the limits when innocent lives are shattered
when their male partners are charged with kidnapping, abduction, and also inducing their daughter to
compel them into marriage. This paper is focusing the actual incidents of caste based victims and mostly
dalits are victimized, besides the reaction of government and the social activists. |

NEW CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES IN HEALTHCARE ANALYTICS: NEED OF MODERN INDIA |
Author : Dr. Sandeep Tare |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Data analytics in healthcare has become a big buzz word. However, it would be important to break
down what exactly is meant by it. Traditionally, for most organizations, data analytics meant purchasing a
Business Intelligence tool and creating reports. The impact of such tools was minimal as most healthcare
data is both non-standard and unstructured (i.e. text, images) and data from multiple sources had to be
combined to create value. With the progress made in Natural Language Processing, image recognition and
speech analysis combined with the availability of large-scale computing power, the ability to convert this type
of information into analyzable signals is now within reach. If one can aggregate information from multiple
sources and build model\s that leverage these technologies, then real value creation is possible. |

(DIS) LOCATION AND (DIS) IDENTIFICATION IN THEIR DOGS CAME WITH THEM |
Author : Himanshi Chandervanshi |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Modern age is an age of migrations. The rise of globalisation coupled with the improved means of
communication and technology has facilitated transnational migrations. In the globalised world, migration
has become an easy phenomenon more than ever before. The motivating factor behind transnational
migrations in the modern times is the hope of a better life. However, the migrant population often confront
various issues in the host land which makes its survival very difficult. The migrant population oscillates
between two cultures and there is no definite sense of identification among the migrant population. Besides,
state sponsored means of control sometimes adds to this crisis of (dis)identification among the migrants. The
same is true of the Chicanos, that is, the Mexican-Americans who confront diverse issues as migrants. The
present paper is an attempt to depict the multi-faceted issues which the Chicanos confront in the United
States which leads to their (dis)location as well as (dis)identification vis-à-visthe mainstream culture as well
as their own culture. |

ALIENATION AND AESTHETIC SENSIBILITY IN EUGENE O’NEILL’S THE ICEMAN COMETH |
Author : Dr. Vinod Kumar Maheshwari |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :In this article, a discussion that is being contemplated is developed first with a treatment of subject
matter through the opinions on what is meant by ‘alienation’; and in what matter it is related to aesthetic
experience of a creative artist. Then, as the argument is built up, its justifiability is examined in the light of its
relationship with Eugene O’Neill’s The Iceman Cometh. In this play of Eugene O’Neill, alienation and aesthetic
sensibility worked in tandem. The Iceman Cometh is a typical modern play in which the different characters
caught in the whirlpool of time and circumstances take to boozing and pipe dreaming just to avail some sort
of satisfaction, even for a shortwhile. However, in the deeper context of life, their hopes are misplaced, for
through drinking and pipe dreaming they can only postpone the hour of reckoning, but they just cannot ward
it off. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Self-efficacy is the belief in ones ability to successfully perform a technologically sophisticated new
task. This is a specific application of the broader and more general construct of self-efficacy, which is defined
as the belief in ones ability to engage in specific actions that result in desired outcomes.Self-efficacy does not
focus on the skills one has, but rather the judgments of what one can do with his or her skills. Traditionally, a
distinguishing feature of self-efficacy is its domain-specificity. In other words, judgments are limited to
certain types of performances as compared to an overall evaluation of his or her potential. This study is
intended to find out the self-efficacy of B.Ed. trainees. The objectives of the study were : 1. To find out the
computer self-efficacy of B.Ed. trainees and 2. To dinf out the differences incomputer self-efficacy of B.Ed.
trainees in terms of gender and marital status. The tool used in the study was Computer Self-efficacy scale.
The sample technique used in the study is a random sampling. The findings of the study revealed that the
B.Ed. trainees have high level of computer self-efficacy and there were no differences in computer selfefficacy among B.Ed. trainees in terms of gender and marital status. |

with the aim to revitalize school education can’t be achieved without addressing the need for creating
reflective teaching practitioners. It envisions that the learning inputs in new teacher education programmes
will be predominantly learner oriented as it would provide for variety in learning exposures, accommodate
differential learning and encourages divergence, reflection and insightful treatment of a learning situation.
The exercise of revising a curriculum also provides for critical examination of diverse social conditions of
learners, larger issues of social disparity, inequity, gender divide and field specific administration and
organisational anomalies. All these contribute to each teacher evolving one’s own conviction about teaching
as a profession and a professional commitment. There is an urgent need to model effective and practical
teacher professional development strategies that put the physical science teachers’ real context at the
centre, and employ it to engage them in modes that will mobilize them for change and professional growth. |

Author : Smt. Ambavva Lagatager and Prof. N. Chandrappa |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :According to national and local official reports, the health status and physical fitness of Karnataka
students are indeed worsening. In an attempt to promote better physical fitness and health, the Karnataka
government has taken a package of measures to improve school-based physical education. However, we
cannot ignore the important role of family members in developing children’s healthy behaviors. The central
objective of this study was to investigate parental influence on secondary school students’ sports
participation in Karnataka in more detail. To do this, questionnaires (including student version and teacher
version) and semi-structured interviews were conducted in different regions of The results of this study reflect
that students do little physical exercise at home and parental influence on students’ sports participation
(including parents’ perception and attitude towards their children’s health and sports participation; parents’
role model of sports participation; parents’ support and encouragement of sports participation; and
communication about students’ physical education between school and family) is unrealized. These results
are important when considering designing more effective interventions to improve students’ physical activity
levels and to influence them to foster life-long habits of physical exercise. |

DISLOCATION OF MEMORY IN UMBERTO ECO’S THE MYSTERIOUS FLAME OF QUEEN LOANA |
Author : Dr. Sagaya Sophia M and Maria Ponn Sindhuja P |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :“Memory by its very nature involves the possibility of dislocating experience” (Casey, 182). The
person, whose memory has been dislocated, goes in search of his past. While doing so he/she tries to live
their life the second time. Some feel satisfied that they have known what they have forgotten, but some
get depressed and overthink trying to make themselves remember what they find out. The former is
common while the latter leads the person to great pressure and depression. Umberto Eco portrays this
dislocation of memory in his novel The Mysterious Flame of Queen Loana. A person’s identity depends
also on the choices he made. The dislocation of the protagonist’s memory leads him into going in search
of his personal identity. Personal identity can be analyzed through two approaches. One is through
psychological continuity and the second is through physical continuity. When he lost his memory he lost
only one approach in which he forgot his psychological self, but is physical memory stayed intact. Every
work that involved physical activities were not lost. He could do his daily works like brushing, bathing,
driving, etc. The things that he read were also stored in his memory. But everything that was based on
his emotions was completely erased of his memory. This he tried to regain, but all in vain. He relived his
life by trying to regain his memory. But what happened was, he relived his life, but never regained his
memory. |

Author : Ranjana Prasad |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The purpose of the study was to find out the Nutrients and diet to enhance fitness of Hockey players.
As a science, nutrition is concerned with the study of food and effect on hockey players. Hockey is a sport that
consists of a variety of exercise intensities ranging from sprinting to standing still. Fuel from the bursts of
intense activity is provided predominantly by carbohydrate and fat used during the less intense parts of the
game. Hockey is a power sport and requires both strength and endurance. As a consequence a hockey
player’s requirements are 1.4-1.7g of protein per kg body weight. Hockey players need fats because active
muscles quickly burn through carbohydrates and need fats for long-lasting energy .Vitamins and minerals
have no caloric value. Although they are required only in small amounts, they are essential for body
functioning. Water is the most basic of all the nutrients-it is necessary to sustain life.A pre match meal should
be eaten 2-4 hours before training or a match. The meal should be high carbohydrate, low in fat and low to
moderate in protein.Post-match food Effective recovery from training and replacement of the glycogen stores
used during training or games is essential. These five components of diet (Nutrients) are being used by the
body to sustain vital processes such as repair and regulation of cellular functions and the production of
energy.

was essentially a Greek by his spirit. Critics are continuously in search that what kind of influence made Keats
so successful in dealing with Greek. |
