Title: Learning Style and Academic Achievement of Secondary School Students
Abstract: Learning style refers to the ability of learners to perceive and process information in learning situations. One of the most important uses of learning styles is that it makes it easy for teachers to incorporate them into their teaching. There are different learning styles.

Title: Influence of Learning Styles and Teaching Strategies on Students' Achievement in Biology
Abstract: This study investigated the effect of learning styles (active/reflective, sensing/intuitive, visual/verbal, and sequential/global) and teaching strategies (guided inquiry, demonstration and lecture) on students' achievement in biology. Three research questions and three null hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Two hundred and forty (240) Senior Secondary Two (SSII) biology students, comprising of one hundred and thirty six (136) females and one hundred and four (104) males were randomly drawn from six (6) Secondary Schools in Uyo Metropolis. A non-randomized control group pretest-posttest design was used for the study. Two research instruments used in gathering data for the study include: Biology Achievement Test (BAT) and Index of Learning Style Questionnaire (ILSQ). Pearson Product moment correlation was used to establish the reliability coefficient for Biology Achievement Test which stood at 0.86 Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), Multiple Classification Analysis (MCA) and Scheffe multiple comparison test were the statistics used to analyse the data. From the findings, a significant effect was found to exist in the academic achievement of biology students taught with guided-inquiry considering their learning styles.

Title: Uniform Civil Code- a Vociferous Judicial Claim and Reluctant Political will
Abstract: Among the Directive Principles, Art. 44 of the Constitution of India directing the State to secure for citizens a Uniform Civil Code throughout the territory of India has occupied a pivotal place of conflict in respect of political ideologies and judicial activism. Though, Art. 37 of the Constitution of India mandates that the provisions contained in this part (Part-IV) shall not be enforceable by any Court, but the principles therein laid down are nevertheless fundamental in the governance of the Country and it shall be the duty of the State to apply these principles in making laws, the Parliament has failed to discharge this Constitutional obligation in translating the principle of Art. 44 in to law by taking effective steps in this regard. While explaining the necessity of Art. 44, Shri K.M. Munshi addressed the Constituent Assembly that: "We are in a stage where we must unify and consolidate the nation by every means without interfering with religious practices." The paramount objective of unity and integrity of India as resolved by the People of India in the Preamble and agreed to be obeyed as Fundamental Duty under Art. 51A(c) of the Constitution of India, though not enforceable like directives, could be achieved only when, from out of various measures, directive of Art. 44 is transformed in to enforceable Uniform Civil Code.

Title: INTUITION- AN  OBJECTIVE IN TAXONOMY  OF RESEARCH
Abstract: Intuition is the key concept in the research process and research behavior. It belongs to higher order learning. There are cases of intuition in the world in abundance and in all walks of life. Intuition differs from insight. It's a quality indicator of the research behavior and research products. Learning science did appreciable advancements in 'learning by teaching', but none in 'learning by research'. Intuition could be studied as an objective in the taxonomy of research. There are three sources of literature in support: i) A school of ancient Indian philosophers, Vedantins studied niddhidhyasana and practiced in their curriculum. Niddhidhyasana via.  upsana is the technique of inculcation of intuition. ii) Blooms and Flanders could show a way that intuition to be an objective of research, and finally 
iii)  computational models of learning also support it.

Title: MATHEMATICS OF NATURE AND NATURE OF MATHEMATICS
Abstract: It is a common perception that mathematics is a dull subject with no connection to life. Also there is a myth that mathematics is a subject of study not for ordinary people rather for some abnormal, eccentric, serious, absent minded, fat, bald and bespectacled people with wrinkles on their foreheads who lead little or no social life.  On the contrary Mathematics is quite interesting and is present in many aspects of life and anybody can study and understand mathematics if one believes in oneself. Mathematics has been thought of as a left cortical (brain)" subject, and identified as 'linear', analytical, logical, grey, cold, hard, complex, difficult, and BORING. In fact mathematics is a whole cortical-skill-subject that involves words, lines, logic, patterns, symmetry, rhythm, space, association and the over-riding concept of fun.

Title: Teachers' Views about Role of Television in Learning
Abstract: Television is a very popular and powerful medium. Being an audio visual medium it can move its audience to tears and to action. Use of soothing melodious music and attractive pictures make this medium very powerful but the sad reality is that some of the programmes are full of violence and sex and poison the soft, impressionable minds of teenagers. Besides that too much T.V. watching makes the youngsters lazy and inactive. Lack of physical activity  gives birth to so many couch potatoes which makes us think whether television is a boon or bane. If T.V. programmes are to be used for educational purposes they should be planned in such a way that they support learning. If children watch good educational programs on TV, they can learn many new things very easily. They can learn about places they have never been to and animals they have never seen and they could learn about new scientific discoveries. Television can also stimulate thinking and make the people broad minded. TV can be a medium for education but it is important to choose the right TV programmes according to the age of the child. This way he/she can learn useful things. The right programmes can help him/her develop his/her imagination. Teachers imparting knowledge are best judge of the utility of television so the researcher has taken the views of the teachers about effect of television on students' learning.

Title: Scope in Curriculum Development in Geography Teaching in School
Abstract: The objectivity of Geography education as in Science and Humanities needs to have sound content and should have historical, scientific & environmental validity, and on the whole it has to be ethically meaningful. Going by the objectivity of the subject in education, the aim, content and pedagogy and assessment naturally varies at all stages. Geography as a subject in the school level is a compulsory affair up to standard X, and it is obvious that not all are going to choose geography as a career subject, however, they need to be Geography literate. In view of the fact that in almost all phenomenon among which a person find himself or in other words his environment/ milieu largely revolve around the understanding of geographical facts. It will not be flaw if it is said that a person with geographical approach can interpret almost every phenomenon. Therefore, geography curriculum needs to orient towards developing understanding of interface between geography and society, to sensitize them to the issues of environment, health and hazard and its preparedness.  The content has to be relevance, meaningful and interesting at every stage. The content need not to be same for the country as a whole, school system of every state should have freedom in designing their syllabus and must consider its geography while designing syllabus. A diverse country like India must reflect itself in terms of diverse syllabi. Syllabus has to be designed with a focus on discussion method and reflection over content dominated syllabus.  Activity based course material can also be designed in order to understand the geographical theoretical concepts along with the practical exercise. It is said that geography is understood more through legs, meaning thereby, field work in geographical teaching has larger role to play. Information and communication technology has revolutionized the geographical realms, however, there is still ample of scope in associating those aired programme in teaching.

Title: Anatomy of Human Resources in Reserve Bank of India (RBI)
Abstract: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has the responsibility of handling assorted functions ranging from monetary policy, maintaining financial stability to regulating and supervising banks and non-banking financial companies.  The quality of governance by RBI as banker's bank for the delivery of multi-dimensional tasks professionally, human resource development (HRD) and organization management is crucial. It is a established reality that human resources at RBI handled global financial crisis competently but there is a news that RBI has hired services of six external agencies to suggest measures for  improving their quality meaning there by we need to do more on HRD as aspects in RBI. Therefore, there is a strong case for analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of human resources in RBI for future growth. We have analyzed the quantity and quality of human resources at the RBI including organizational structure whose quality plays vital role for good governance. Then we have highlighted current status as well as the structure of human resource at the RBI keeping in view its composition on various bases like departments, classes and categories and observed that it is a fair practice, gender sensitive and equal opportunity institution but at the same time suggested to explore the synergies of new department of HRM after combining the DAPM and HRDD.

Title: Carbon Credit-Currency of 21st Century
Abstract: In 1997, Kyoto Protocol, a voluntary treaty was signed by 141 countries to reduce the emissions of Global House Gases by 5.2% below 1990 levels by 2012. Certified Emissions Reductions (CER) or Carbon credits are certificates issued certifying reduction in emissions. The developing countries have been exempted from any such restrictions. These certificates can be traded in the market and purchased by firms which find purchasing emission credits to offset its emissions lower in cost. Thus an opportunity has emerged for firms in developing countries like India, Brazil and China to boost their earnings by complying with norms. However not all projects are eligible for registration under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) under the Kyoto Protocol. As a result a large number of advisory firms have spawned. In addition an entire market has been developed around the same. The key participants apart from the project developers are, including not limited to, verification, certification and financing institutions. In India this opportunity has manifold implications affecting not only industry but also government, financial institutions and civil society at large. Most importantly this has opened up a new source of cash flow in project financing making unviable projects viable by exceeding the hurdle rate for investment returns. Industry will need to adapt to the changing opportunity that it brings along i.e. higher return on investments along with risks that are inherent in carbon credit project financing. In my opinion, it will be pragmatic on part of firms to consider this mode of cash flows in project financing. Further this provides a strategic role for the countries to benefit from the cash flows that can be invested in cleaner technologies for sustainable development.
Key words: Carbon credits, Emission, Certified Emissions Reductions (CER), Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)

Title: PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN MANIPUR
Abstract: Education is must to all from cradle to grave in the life of a man. Due the importance of it, Government of India has already launched universalization of primary education throughout the nation for the children between the ages of 6 to 14 years under the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA),the article-21(A) of constitution of India. However, only primary education can't prepare the job of an individual for livelihood. So, universalisation of secondary education is also launched as one of the national missions under the scheme of Rashtriya Midhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan. On other hand, the secondary education could not fulfill the needs of an individual as well as society. So, there is need of universalisation higher education throughout nation for a knowledge based society. On basis of its mission, many universities and colleges have been establishing at different locations of different states. But, by the simply establishments of colleges and universities, the dream of nation that knowledge based society could not be fulfilled without the internal quality control management system of institutions. The article tries to find out, not only the problems faced by the colleges and department concerned, but, also the prospects to be taken up by the college as well as the Department of Education (U), in order to improve Higher Education in Manipur under vision of the quality higher education to be reached at the global standard.

Title: LISTENING TO BHAJANS IMPROVES SUSTAINED ATTENTION
Abstract: Studies of Integrated Approach to Yoga Therapy, Yoga Lifestyle programs tend to study the overall benefits of Yoga lifestyle to patients, measured on various parameters, clinical, or related practical measurements, such as prana energy levels and their imbalances. Effects of important aspects of the program such as relaxation techniques have also been carefully studied, but several parts of the overall program have not yet been individually assessed for their physiological or psycho-physiological effects. Here we report a first study of listening to bhajans, sacred songs, an important part of the program which softens and expands the heart. Measures of sustained attention, using the Six Letter Cancellation Test and Digit Letter Substitution Tests were made on 20 volunteer SVYASA students, before and after 30 minutes spent either listening to bhajans, or reading a spiritual text. All were assessed on both, half with
bhajans on the first day and reading on the second, and half the other way round. Results clearly indicated that bhajans improved test scores more than reading, suggesting that, (1) all parts of Yoga lifestyle programs should be assessed, and (2) more detailed research in this particular area should be carried out. That listening to songs should have a distinct alerting influence that is sustained may come as a surprise to many students of psychology.

Title: CONDITIONS OF SLUM POPULATION OF MAJOR SUB-URBAN WARDS OF MUMBAI IN MAHARASHTRA
Abstract: This paper analyzes slum dwellers access to basic amenities and the ways in which they gain access. Mumbai city is a city of the haves and a city of the have-nots. Among these two, one is grimy (slum) and other one is neat (non-slum). They are two distinct but inter-dependent and give Mumbai a part of its character. As per 2011 census the total population of Mumbai was 12.48 Millions. The city has experienced substantial growth rate during last five decades due to high level of industrial development and growth in the suburban areas of greater Mumbai jurisdiction. According to the 2001 census, Mumbai slum population was 54.5%. Provisional data from the 2011 census shows that nearly 41.3% of the city's population lives in slums. Dharavi is a part of G north ward and its population is 5.82 lakh with nearly 60% slums. Dharavi is no longer Asia's largest slum. It's now rivalled and dwarfed by four slum clusters in
Mumbai itself, some of the major slumdweller's pockets in Mumbai & suburbs are Kurla-Ghatkopar belt (70%-80% slum population), Dindoshi belt (80% slum population), Bhandup belt (70% slum population), Mankhurd-Govandi belt (95% slum population). This paper focuses more on the living environment of households and the population of major wards such as Kurla (L), Chembur (M), and Ghatkopar (N) of Mumbai city in Maharashtra. It is understood from the primary survey that around 82% people are living in one room, having drinking water facility through common connection (says 65% people) but which is not available regularly and in sufficient quantity, 84% slum population is depending on public toilets . The drainage system in slum area is open (says 85% people). On the other hand it is also observed that 82% households have mobiles and 87% households have Television sets. This paper concludes with magnitude of problems of slum population in Mumbai & provides an overview of policy options through which
governments can assist in providing adequate shelter for the growing number of poor households expected to be living in cities in the future.

Abstract: Handlooms an age old tradition of the rich cultural heritage of India is an important sector with respect to its size and employment potential. It is the second largest employment provider after agriculture, providing employment to 12 million families. Clusters and clustering of small firms is increasingly becoming an important tool in Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) development in both developed and developing economies. Since centuries, India developed a system of specialised handloom concentrations throughout the country. Handloom and handicraft clusters dominate the cluster landscape of the country. The cluster model of developing traditional micro enterprises has shown success in handloom clusters in the country. Marketing, however, has been a general problem faced by the handloom industry in India, since these products are known for niche marketing. The Chanderi (Madhya Pradesh) and Kannur (Kerala) clusters are examples of how with the required institutional support they have become benchmark clusters for others to emulate by making inroads into international markets.

Title: ARTICLE 21 OF CONSTITUTION OF INDIA AND RIGHT TO LIVELIHOOD
Abstract: In any organized society, right to live as a human being is not ensured by meeting only the animal needs of man. It is secured only when he is assured of all facilities to develop himself and is freed from restrictions which inhibit his growth. All human rights are designed to achieve this object. Right to live guaranteed in any civilized society implies the right to food, water, decent environment, education, medical care and shelter. The word 'life' as employed by Article 21 takes in its sweep not only the concept of mere physical existence by also all finer values of life including the right to work and right to livelihood. This right is a fundamental right guaranteed to all persons residing in India, citizens and non-citizens alike. right to life including right to livelihood and work as guaranteed by Article 21 is not reduced to a mere paper platitude but is kept alive, vibrant and pulsating so that the country can effectively march towards the avowed goal of establishment of an egalitarian society as envisaged by the founding fathers while enacting the Constitution of India along with its Preamble.

Title: A STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF MEDIUM OF INSTRUCTION ON STUDENTS' ANXIETY AT COLLEGES OF EDUCATION
Abstract: Education and language are well connected and are inseparable components of each other. The former is not possible without the latter. Thus a careful decision regarding the medium of instruction in education with reference to the learners' development and learning competence is more crucial when it is being decided in country like India, which is totally diverse in nature. The medium of instruction makes the learning pattern simple or complex. The opinions of people in the country like India for the medium of instructions are confused. Generally people believe that the education given in second language is always hindering the learners' innate potentials but according to some educationists language is not a barrier in receiving education and students can easily learn different languages and use them for learning process. To ponder over this controversy and to evaluate the pros and cons of both views, the researchers conducted this research.

Title: THE THEORY OF LEARNER-INTERAL FACTORS IN SECOND LANGUAGE ACQUISITION
Abstract: While the majority of SLA research has been devoted to language learning in a natural setting, there have also been efforts made to investigate second-language acquisition in the classroom. This kind of research has a significant overlap with language education, but it is always empirical, based on data and statistics, and it is mainly concerned with the effect that instruction has on the learner, rather than what the teacher does. A review of SLA theories and their explanations for age-related differences is necessary before considering empirical studies. Research explores these ideas and hypotheses, but results are varied: some demonstrate pre-pubescent children acquire language easily, and some that older learners have the advantage, and yet others focus on existence of a CP for SLA.SLA research began as an interdisciplinary field, and because of this, it is difficult to identify a precise starting date. Empirical research has attempted to account for variables detailed by SLA theories and provide an insight into L2 learning processes, which can be applied in educational environments. The study of learner-internal factor in SLA is primarily concerned with the question: How do learners gain competence in the target language? In other words, given effective input and instruction, with what internal resources do learners process this input to produce a rule-governed inter language.

Title: DEVELOPMENT OF MATHEMATICS IN INDIA
Abstract: Mathematics has been considered as very important subject since ancient times. We find very elaborate proof of this in Vedas, which were compiled around 6000 BC. The concept of division, addition etc. was used even that time. Concepts of zero and infinite were also there. We also find roots of Beez Ganit in Vedas. When Indian Beez Ganit reached Arab, they called it Algebra. Algebra was name of the Arabic book that described Indian concepts. This knowledge reached Europe from there. This fact was well known to intellectuals of India, which is why they gave special importance to the development of Mathematics, right from the beginning. When this knowledge was negligible in Arab and Europe, India had acquired great achievements. This paper discusses development of mathematics in India from ancient time.

Title: VALUE EDUCATION: PAST AND PRESENT
Abstract: This paper attempts to compare the concept of value education in modern India and the concept of value education in ancient India. At a practical level value education ensures that the school fulfils the aim of the national curriculum: to promote pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and prepare them all for the experiences of life. At a philosophical level, the answer lies in a deep conviction about the purposes of education. Defining value education as education itself, the author advocates the need of teachers and elders as an agent for social change. It is required to modify the teacher training programmes to equip the teacher to deliver the quality of values as per the situation and explore the process by which children develop values essential for living in the society. Teachers need to be trained to create situations and be imaginative to reflect on that situation by making students aware of values and highlighting its need.

Title: FACILITATING INTRAPRENEURSHIP- CAN CEOS FACILITATE INTRAPRENEURSHIP?
Abstract: Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) have pivotal roles in guiding the organization forward with their vision and strategies but with the current economic situations, organizations are struggling with innovation management. The economic environment of the 21st century is getting progressively more competitive, demanding and challenging for most organizations. In order to survive and be successful, organizations constantly need to work on their products, services and business models to maintain a competitive advantage. This paper proposes intrapreneurship as an effective solution for managing innovation progression in different organizations. Organizational complexities can be effectively managed if CEOs facilitate an intrapreneurial climate where the skills of intrapreneurs can be nurtured and developed. This paper demonstrates that by establishing an intrapreneurial climate, CEOs can provide development opportunities for prospective intrapreneurs to grow and flourish in any organization. This research uses an audio recorded structured interview methodology with data analysis using NVivo software.

Title: AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION IN INDIA: CHALLENGES AND PROSPECTS
Abstract: India is an agricultural country. At the time of independence our country faced food shortages. Later on due to green revolution we became self sufficient in food grain production despite population increase. One of the important factors in success of green revolution is the role played by agricultural graduates. After independence, state agricultural universities were established in all the states to impart education in the field of agriculture. Indian Council of Agricultural Research, New Delhi regulates and ensures effective dissemination of agricultural education. At the same time, as agricultural universities are established by respective state governments, they are controlled by them. Although agricultural universities have done commendable job but in present liberalized and globalized era of World Trade Organization and General Agreement on Trade in Services, they face certain challenges viz financial constraints, lack of autonomy, inbreeding, lack of faculty competence in newer areas of agricultural sciences etc. Agricultural education being a professional education, it is necessary to take remedial measures so as to ensure food sufficiency for our growing population. In this context this paper describes the status of agricultural education in India highlighting challenges and suggesting strategies to overcome them.

So the present article aims to inform the world India's endeavor to foster respect and improve their situation in India with a mission to assist asylum seekers in basic human rights and accessing justice system.

Title: PERSONALITY DISPOSITION OF JUVENILE DELINQUENTS
Abstract: Juvenile Delinquency-�An Alarming Crisis� does not have a constant or definite meaning. Some say that delinquents are those who violate the law, habitually disobedient and truant. But delinquents shouldn�t be treated as criminals but as maturing persons who need utmost guidance, love and support while they find their way towards life. They shouldn�t be treated as criminals, but being a delinquent is not an excuse to manifest distress and confusion. It is very true that two major components of delinquency is the society and the family. But since each and every one of us has, what we call �logical� mind, we get to choose what is right and what is not. Exploring new stuffs is precisely what you call �part of growing up�. Delinquency is when you break a certain rule or law that is accepted by the society or the environment you are into. Criminal�s behavior is influenced by various personal traits. The current research focused to investigate the relationship between personality traits of juvenile delinquency among delinquents and non-delinquent juveniles taking Tripura as a model state. This study was mainly carried out at Agartala city, Tripura and its sub-urban areas covering 10 male juvenile delinquents and 10 male non-delinquent juveniles/adolescents (matched in terms of age and gender). The sample was collected from juvenile home following purposive sampling techniques. Background information schedule and multidimensional personality inventory (MPI) were administered to them. Findings revealed that the juvenile delinquents differed with their normal counterparts in regard to all the dimensions of personality. It is observed that juvenile delinquents were more extroverts, possesses high self-concept, more dependent in nature, short tempered, have poor adjustment capacity and are less anxious than those of their normal counterparts.

Title: SELF REGULATION IN YOGA: EXPANSION OF POSSIBILITIES UNLIMITED
Abstract: Each person desires to attain the highest states of existence after continually muddling with the constraints and temptations of the material world. An inner world of truth, peace, love, enlightenment awaits to be discovered in each one of us , holding endless possibilities for transcendence from the worldly �maya� into the sublime omnipresent  �paramatma�. Sages across centuries evolved unique ways to assist the �indriyas� to search beyond the obvious and find ways that led to the culmination of this goal. Self regulation of thought, behaviour and emotions is one such technique to extend oneself beyond the physical self and unravel the hidden potential that remains submerged in our consciousness. The present paper strives to highlight the role of self regulation and its enhancement via Yoga in achieving all that one is capable of.

Title: CREATING AWARENESS REGARDING DISABILITY AND FOLK MEDIA IN SELECTED VILLAGES OF VADODARA DISTRICT
Abstract: Disability is the consequence of an impairment that may be physical, cognitive, mental, sensory, emotional, developmental, or some combination of these. A disability may be present from birth, or occur during a person�s lifetime. The NSSO�s countrywide surveys on the magnitude of the problems of disability show that the disabled population (excluding the mentally disabled) increased from 13.67 million (1.8 per cent of total population) in 1981 to 16.36 million in 1991 (1.9 per cent). Commonly, persons with disability have been considered burdensome and shameful, because they are incapable of contributing to traditional social obligations and roles. These attitudes and behaviors not only prevent the children from getting appropriate medical care for their conditions, but also prevent them from living �normally�. To overcome this it was decided to conduct the project on creating awareness about disable children amongst selected villages of Vadodara District. The programme was systematically planned and executed with the help of folk media Programme was conducted in four villages Karachiya, Koyli, Undera, and Bajawa. Programme was conducted through bhavai and rally. Through this villagers were aware and sensitize towards disables. This programme is not enough for the whole but it help a little bit to improve the status of society and nation. The purpose of this programme is to create awareness and people are responding well to the activities this shows that people start attending the disables as a normal one.

Title: GAS DISCHARGE VISUALIZATION CHARACTERISTICS OF AN INDIAN DIABETES POPULATION
Abstract: Instruments measuring subtle energy levels in human subjects are becoming increasingly popular in complementary medicine. Gas Discharge Visualization is an instrument measuring fingertip electron emission, variations in which correspond to changing health levels in different organs and organ systems. Its characteristics in diabetes have not previously been determined. The purpose of this study is to compare Gas Discharge Visualization parameters of diabetes patients those of healthy individuals. Data taken from 138 diabetes patients, divided into three groups according to duration of patholgy, was compared with data from 84 healthy subjects. Three GDV subscales were analysed: GDV Screening, Diagram, and Right Left Symmetry. Significant differences were observed between the two groups in the cardiovascular, endocrine, immune and urogenital systems. Dividing the diabetes group according pathology duration revealed systematic increases in values in all organs and organ systems. Also, our Bangalore based subjects seemed to have different norms from those originally used to calibrate the instrument. Differences between diabetic and healthy groups increase with increasing duration of the disease. Population norms require further investigation.

Title: PERSONALITY IMPETUS TO MANAGERIAL OCB: A CORRELATIONAL ANALYSIS
Abstract: The present study examines the role of personality dimensions in occurrence of Organizational Citizenship Behavior at workplace. Three hundred middle level managers from various multi-national companies situated in northern India (Chandigarh, Ludhiana, Patiala, and New Delhi) were included in this study. Their age ranged between 25-45 years. Only those employees were taken in this study who had served more than five years in that organization. Correlation was used to determine the significant relationships between personality dimensions and Organizational Citizenship Behavior. The results revealed that Neuroticism dimension of personality was negatively correlated with Organizational Citizenship Behavior. As far as Conscientiousness, Openness to experience, Agreeableness and Extraversion were concerned; all these dimensions were positively correlated with Organizational Citizenship Behavior. As far as Gender differences were concerned, the �t� value did not attain the level of significance. The study has major implications for organizations as they can recruit employees on the bases of their personality i.e. less neurotic individuals, highly agreeable, highly conscientious individuals would be preferred as they would be influential in increasing productivity and efficiency of the organization in the future.

Title: CONSOLIDATION OF FISCAL FRONT OF STATES IN INDIA
Abstract: In this paper an attempt has been made to compare the receipts of Governments with a view to bring out the divergence in the mobilisation of resources by the States and the Central Government and expenditure incurred on development activities for the years 2010-11, 2011-12 (Revised Estimates) and 2012-13 (Budget Estimates). The fiscal position of states witnessed consolidation in terms of deficit indicators in 2010-11. The year 2011-12 (RE) recorded a marginal improvement in revenue surplus, while fiscal deficit was higher due to an increase in capital outlay. However, state governments are budgeted to further strengthen their fiscal position in 2012-13, which would be primarily contributed by higher surplus in their revenue accounts during the year. During 2012-13 (BE), most states expect to meet the deficit targets. The majority of the states shows an increase in their revenue surplus during 2012-13, thereby indicating that the quality of expenditure is not being compromised to achieve the deficit targets.

Title: PSPP A FREE AND OPEN SOURCE TOOL FOR DATA ANALYSIS
Abstract: Besides carrying out research for academic purpose, it is becoming increasingly important for educational institutions to provide hands-on training to the students in use of statistical software for making informed decisions. Many proprietary solutions are available for the data analysis but initial licensing and subsequent upgrading prices of these solutions are beyond reach of majority of academic institutions, and small organisations with limited resources.  PSPP  has evolved as a valuable resource for educational institutions, MSMEs, non-government organisations and others requiring a free and easy to learn software for data analysis. Important features of PSPP are described in this paper.

Title: LATENT HEAT STORAGE SYSTEM FOR SOLAR THERMAL ENERGY APPLICATIONS
Abstract: The progression of energy supply always possesses some difficulty as the supply does not commensurate with demand. The demand for energy remains higher than production which always leads to imprudent exploitation of precious natural resources, which is available in limited quantities on the mother earth. Energy from non-renewable resources leads to dwindling of natural sources and global warming, whereas energy from renewable resources is sporadic. Solar energy is the primary energy source in renewable energy. The intermittent nature of solar energy necessitates the use of a storage medium. The storage medium stores energy when it is available in excess quantities and delivers the stored energy when the supply is inadequate. Thermal energy storage system plays a major role to achieve high efficiency and uninterrupted operation for solar thermal energy applications such as space heating, solar drying, solar water heating, and industrial process heat and electricity generation. In this article, an attempt has been made to focus on the scope of thermal energy storage system and different techniques of storing solar thermal energy. Scientific investigation was carried out to determine the suitability of an organic phase change material in solar thermal energy storage. This article is expected to be an aid to the scientific society to explore current trends, opportunities and advancement in solar thermal energy storage systems.
Key words: Solar energy, Latent heat storage, Phase change materials, Thermal energy storage, Thermo-physical properties.

Title: WORK ATTACHMENT AND PRIORITY NEEDS � A STUDY ON TEACHERS
Abstract: Work attachment is the degree to which a person psychologically identifies himself with his work. This study investigated the attachment that the teachers of Government and Government-aided colleges have towards their work and how they prioritize their needs. Accordingly, a group of 120 college teachers (60 from government colleges and 60 from government-aided colleges) were selected as sample. A general information schedule, work attachment questionnaire and priority need questionnaire were used as tools. The findings reveal that work attachment of both groups of teachers is moderate. But duration of service period takes an important role in this regard. Work attachment of the teachers who are engaged in government colleges and whose duration of service is 10 years or less is better than those whose duration of service is above 10 years. On the contrary, no significant difference was observed for the government-aided colleges. Findings also revealed that priority need as expressed by two groups of teachers differ significantly in some areas.

Title: ICT AND ITS� ROLE IN PRIMARY MATHEMATICS EDUCATION
Abstract: We live in a dynamic society with knowledge increasing at an unpredictable rate. With the accompanying advance in technology, developing countries are no longer insulated from the effects of these changes, as evidenced by the extent to which the whole world is fast becoming a global village with constant interaction on many levels. One goal of education is the preparation of the young not only for this changed world, but also with the willingness and ability to face new and changing situations. Social, economic, and technological changes of the past decades are making education and training for all more crucial than ever. Yet, educational systems, to different degrees worldwide, are struggling to afford educational opportunities for all, to provide their graduates with the necessary knowledge and skills for evolving marketplaces and sophisticated living environments, and to prepare citizens for lifelong learning. To meet these challenges, countries have to focus concurrently on expanding access, improving internal efficiency, promoting the quality of teaching and learning right from the elementary level, and improving system management.

Title: PROTECTING BIOTECH INVENTIONS: ARE WE READY?
Abstract: Biotechnology has been used in agriculture, food production and medicine since the dawn of our civilization. Biotechnology is a popular term for the generic technology of the 21st century. With the advancement in science and research, modern biotechnological inventions have brought a revolution in our lives. These inventions are protected under the Patent Law. The World Trade Organization�s TRIPS agreement sets down the minimum standards for intellectual property regulation for its member countries. India being one of the members of WTO has fulfilled the TRIPS commitments by amending the patent regime, the latest of which is the amendment of 2005.  India has a large pool of scientific talent, world-class information-technology industry, and vibrant pharmaceutical sector. India has a rich human capital, which is the strongest asset for the knowledge based industry. India is also well positioned to emerge as a significant player in the global biotech arena. Though the Indian Patents Law has been very successful in promoting the progress of science but still the patent system is not as stronger as it is in other developed countries. So far as biotechnology is concerned there are no internationally accepted guidelines for the grant of patents and wide range of opinions exists regarding patenting of biotechnological inventions. The protection afforded to these inventions is sensitive and complex and has given rise to several technical and ethical issues.  The general aim of this paper is to canvass those issues in the Indian context.

Title: ROLE OF TRAINING IN PROMOTING WORK LIFE BALANCE (WLB)
Abstract: Work and life are two sides of a coin. They are interwoven in nature and overlap. An emotionally intelligent employee well knows how to strike balance between work and life, still lot of support is needed from top management/employers. Business organizations in India still have a long way to go so far as the espousal of WLB practices is concerned. In India, the private sector organizations have an edge over public sector organizations in name of WLB. Organizations, which attach adequate value to organizational learning, deliberately devise a well meditated training strategy. Some of the organizations resort to training exercise in a less formal manner. Training can modify the attitude of employers as well as employees towards WLB. As it is an established fact that employer and employees both are equally responsible for promoting the WLB initiatives in an organization, training can encourage both of them to be WLB conscious.

Title: MICRO ENTREPRISES IN HARYANA: AN ANALYSIS
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to understand, analyze and interpret the role of micro enterprises in the rapid growth of the Haryana economy as one of the fastest among 28 States and 7 Union Territories (UTs) of India. It would be no exaggeration to say that the industrial development lying within the ambit of micro enterprises especially those based on agriculture can go a long way in ensuring the overall economic well being of the people and thereby raising the quality of their life substantially. The sector has undergone several changes in terms of its nomenclature. Small Scale Industries (SSIs) have been reclassified as Micro and Small with the introduction of Micro and Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) Act, 2006. MSMEs have been playing significant role in the overall economic development. MSMEs have been termed as �engine of growth� for all the developing economies including Haryana. Annual Compound Growth Rates (ACGRs) have been used as the major statistical tool to analyze the functioning of micro enterprises in Haryana during pre and post reform period. Four economic parameters namely no. of units, investment, employment and production have been used as yardsticks to gauge or evaluate the contribution of the micro-enterprises in improving the financial health and economic scenario of the state. The major problems being encountered by micro enterprises have also been discussed. To ensure implementation of the policies and programmes for micro enterprises, we need good governance which means SMART (SIMPLE, Moral, Action Oriented, Responsive and Transparent) administration. The present study has been divided into five sections. Section I deals with the introduction and related concepts. Section II is devoted to Review of Literature. Section III highlights the research methodology. Section IV describes the growth of number, employment, total Investment and total production of micro enterprises in Haryana. Section V discusses the problems of micro enterprises in Haryana and last section VI, conclusion and policy implications.

Title: SECULARISM: CONCEPT AND APPLICATION IN INDIA WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY DEBATES
Abstract: The process of secularization has to be viewed in the context of separation of state from religion, but one has also to remember that secularization came to be an important handmaid of the entire process of modernization. Secularism has been thought of in various ways such as its antithesis to religion and its consistency with rationality, utilitarianism, materialism, individualism etc. The process and movement towards secularization has certain antecedents both in the world at large and in India. In India the movement towards secularization has its roots in the efforts to bridge the gulf between the Hindus and the Muslims so as to evolve a nation. It was felt that only through secularism could India evolve itself into a meaningful entity, particularly in terms of fighting against the British. In the Indian context, one has to remember that the content of secularism stems out of this major concern.

Title: EDUCATION: TOOL FOR EMPOWERING WOMEN
Abstract: Women have been given an inferior social status. Conservative social customs like sati, child marriage, dowry, social boycott of widows have made women�s life miserable. Thus, women experience several accumulated disadvantages. They face not only gender discrimination of various degrees but also suffer the most from sexual harassment, atrocities and crimes. All these factors, coupled with the low female literacy rate, make the role of education very challenging. At present, there is an increasing awareness of the need to empower women in order to raise their status. It is strongly believed that providing education to women who have been denied opportunities in this area until now would bring about the desired changes. Intense efforts are being made to enhance the enrolment of women at all levels of education. In this paper the author has discussed why education is important for empowering women. The author also discusses the teenaged Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai who was shot by Taliban gunmen in her native Pakistan for daring to attend school. Malala Yousafzai has given strong message to the world that all girls have right to attend school and realize their dreams.

Title: PAST IN PRESENT: DIASPORIC STUDY OF UNACCUSTOMED EARTH BY JHUMPA LAHIRI AS A NOSTALGIC DISCOURSE
Abstract: Nostalgia has remained unexplainably a contemporary concept. It can be defined as a longing or craving for a home that no more subsists or has never subsisted. In the 17th century, nostalgia was believed to be a remediable disease and often considered to be a negative word by the historians. The nostalgic study does not coincide with any particular field or discipline but it is frequently narrated in the numerous tales of Immigrants. With the help of Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri, this research paper endeavours to bring forth the fact that though at the core of nostalgia is a sense of loss that is both mourned and accepted, it can also be an essential means on the bases of which one might draw to maintain, enhance and imbibe true meaning of life.

Title: UNEXPECTED LOSSES, IMPORTANCE OF NON-FUNGIBILITY OF MONEY AND PSYCHOLOGICAL REASON FOR NON-FUNGIBILITY OF EXPENDITURE AND INCOMES
Abstract: In our day to day life we incur costs and losses. The paper treats costs and losses as outflows of money. Some outflows of money are expected and accounted for mentally in advance (EMI of a car loan or a home loan), whereas certain outflows are not expected and have to be met unawares (a medical bill or a theft). Thepresent paper explores how both these types of outflows affect us hedonically. Pain and pleasure are the two basic hedonic states discussed. These are psychological states, not physical. The study discusses contingency accounts and mental accounting of contingency. Non-fungibility of money which is one of the central concepts of Mental Accounting is discussed as a useful tool for contingency situations. The work investigates possible psychological reason for non-fungibility of money.

Title: DIPOLE OF PAIN AND PLEASURE AND USE OF MENTAL ACCOUNTING TO REACH HEDONIC EQUILIBRIUM
Abstract: The current paper hypothesizes that humans try to reduce not only the pain but also pleasure (psychological, not physical) resulting due to economic losses, thereby trying to maintain a hedonic equilibrium. The researchers use an analogy of dipole in physics to express the hypothesis. While mitigation of pain is understood, reduction of pleasure is interesting to understand. Neurobiology may present its answer to this. Pain and pleasure when experienced are likely to cause hyper activity in neural networks. This consumes more energy, which may not be sustainable by the brain. Hence people may try to reach equilibrium to conserve the limited energy of the brain. The research discusses unique ability of mind to strategize through thoughts for reaching this hedonic equilibrium. Mental accounting is discussed as a device of human psyche used to achieve hedonic equilibrium. The work also tries to explain the importance of loss aversion and segregation of losses.

Title: CUSTOMER SATISFACTION TOWARDS ORDER PROCESSING, QUOTATION PROCESSING AND SUPPLY IN JINDAL INDUSTRIES
Abstract: Customer satisfaction is essential to business success. Satisfied customers do more business with you more often. They purchase more each time, and they purchase more often. They also refer their family and friends to you. When you sell more, your profits are greater. If your customer is not satisfied, he or she will stop doing business with you. All the things you do to achieve quality and provide excellent service are not important at all if you do not work to satisfy the customer. Customer satisfaction is the customer's perception that his or her expectations have been met or surpassed. You buy something and you expect it to work properly. If it does, you are satisfied. If it does not, you are dissatisfied. Now, it is up to the seller to find a way to fix the problem so that you can become satisfied. The paper highlights the customer satisfaction towards order processing, quotation processing and supply in Jindal Industries.

Title: IMPACT OF SELF HELP GROUP SCHEME OF MICROFINANCE IN KAITHAL DISTRICT OF HARYANA
Abstract: Financing under Self Helf Groups (SHGs) scheme is based on the concept of Microfinance which is a term for the practice of providing financial services such as microcredit, micro savings and micro insurance to the rural poor. As this program is going on for the last many years, the present study has been carried out keeping in view the objectives that what is the impact of Microfinance on living standards, empowerment of women and poverty alleviation in the Kaithal district of Haryana. . It has been found that there has been considerable increase in the income, savings and economic assets of the beneficiaries after joining the scheme. The increase in income and savings has raised the standard of living of the members. It has also resulted in increasing their confidence and has helped in social justice and empowerment of women.Microfinance can be a success story if we adopt healthy practices adopted by Gramin bank of Bangladesh such as five members in SHGs. It is sad to observe that our approach in micro financing is �target oriented� in terms of expenditure allocations which is required to be made �result oriented�. There is a scope of monitoring and evaluation by academicians rather than professionals and officials to make it unbiased. To ensure inclusive growth which means including the excluded segments, caring the less cared and using the less used manpower, we need to control corruption, population and inflation. There is a strong case for monitoring and evaluation with good governance (SMART administration), manpower planning and inflation targeting for achieving the better results in making microfinance under SHGs a success story in India.

Title: COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION IN TOURISM DEVELOPMENT WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO MANIPUR
Abstract: Community based tourism is tourism in which local residents (often rural, poor and economically marginalized) invite tourists to visit their communities with the provision of overnight accommodation. The residents earn income as land managers, entrepreneurs, service and produce providers, and employees. At least part of the tourist income is set aside for projects which provide benefits to the community as a whole. When we come to �Community participation� it refers to a form of voluntary action in which individuals take up the responsibilities of citizenship. Community participation is an educational and empowering process. People cooperate with those able to assist them, and identify problems and needs for mutual concerns. The term �community� or �host community�, in the context of tourism, refers to a group of people living in the same locality, or tourism destination. In the Northeast Region (NER) of India in general and Manipur in particular the concept of community participation in tourism development is not widely prevalent and is in infancy stage. In this backdrop the paper adopt a hypothesis that Community based tourism is a factor for maximizing the socio-economic benefit of the community and growth of tourism industry in the state. It also looks into the aspect of how different communities in Manipur can participate in tourism development.

Title: FAIRNESS AND RECIPROCITY OF CONSUMERS
Abstract: Behavioral economics have provided insights about consumer behavior in a way that can help us understand consumer preferences and decision making in a better way. Standard economic theory assumes that people make economic choices on the basis of perfect self-interest. This simplifying assumption is useful to understand the concept of economic utility. However study of social preferences through the lens of behavioral economics and psychology points out that people do value the fairness of outcomes for others. They also reciprocate by punishing or rewarding the economic agents with whom they transact, even if they have to incur costs for this reciprocity. This paper highlights fairness perception and other regarding preferences of consumers and economic agents through thought experiments. There are four findings that the authors present in this paper. First: People empathize with the loss making economic agents and are willing to incur costs to transact with them. Second: Fairness perception of consumers gets modulated by the urgency of the need. Third: Consumer�s expectation of positive reciprocity increases with the strength of loyalty with their suppliers. Fourth: Stability of prices and wages is appreciated by people.

Title: NEXUS BETWEEN SAVINGS, INVESTMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN INDIA
Abstract: This paper examines the relationship between gross domestic product (GDP), gross domestic savings (GDS) and gross domestic investment (GDI) for India during the period 1951- 2012. Vector Error Correction Method and co-integration techniques are used for analyzing the relationship between gross domestic product (GDP), gross domestic savings (GDS) and gross domestic investment (GDI) in this study. The Johansen co-integration test indicates gross domestic product (GDP), gross domestic savings (GDS) and gross domestic investment (GDI) are co-integrated, and that a long-run equilibrium exists between them. The Vector Error Correction test reveals that there is unidirectional causality running from gross domestic savings (GDS) and gross domestic investment (GDI) to gross domestic product (GDP) in the short run as well as in the long run. It means gross domestic savings (GDS) and gross domestic investment (GDI) lead to gross domestic product (GDP) but gross domestic product (GDP) does not lead to gross domestic savings (GDS) and gross domestic investment (GDI).

Title: PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF A WIRE MESH SOLAR AIR HEATER
Abstract: A solar drier integrated with a matrix solar air heater having an area of 6 m2 was developed and undertaken a detailed performance analysis to explore the techno-commercial feasibility of the system. The maximum temperature recorded at the outlet of the air heater was 70 �C, when the system was subjected to no loaded condition. The dryer was loaded with 30 kg fresh tomato of 4 mm thick slices. The initial moisture content of 90.62 % reduced to 18.28 % in 3 hours. The economics of the drier was analyzed in detail by three methods namely annualized cost, present worth of annual savings and present worth of cumulative savings. The payback period worked out to be 1.05 years, which was much less than the estimated life of the system (20 years). The cumulative savings of the dryer at the end of 20 years was estimated to be Rs. 28,52,503.00

Title: A STUDY ON EKLAVYA MODEL RESIDENTIAL SCHOOLS (EMRS) IN TRIBAL EDUCATION
Abstract: Eklavya Model Residential School (EMRS) scheme supports the establishment and running of quality residential schools for Scheduled Tribes (STs) students with an objective to provide quality education to the tribal students. EMRS start at Class VI and admission to these schools is patterned on the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya model. Education in EMRSs is entirely free. This paper intends to evaluate the Eklavya Model Residential School (EMRS) with the objective to find whether the design of programme is appropriate to meet the stated objectives, whether they constitute felt needs of the community, bottlenecks if any in proper implementation of the scheme, whether these schemes are augmenting the education among STs and support to increase the literacy rate of STs. Whether there is any impact of these schemes in decreasing the dropout rates of STs. The analysis of EMR school data reveals that the EMR School is not managed as per the guidelines. The arrangement of the black boards in the class rooms is appropriate but the maintenance of the boards is poor, the number of toilets is less considering the strength of the students and maintenance was found to be poor. The study suggests, the guidelines of EMRS should indicate the organizational structure, Manpower and Educational expertise for the Tribal welfare Residential educational institutions societies on par with Navodaya Vidyalaya Model pattern. EMRS should have separate budget plan for both infrastructure, recurring, non-recurring expenditure every year and it should be included in the annual work plan & budget.

Title: INSTRUCTION AND LEARNING IN TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMME
Abstract: In India, where classrooms are intentionally structured in a manner that they could accommodate maximum number of children. Educators were involved in lecturing and not teaching. Children waited for teachers to deliver instructions, which they immediately captured in their notebooks and memorised and produced during exams. This was instructional approach. In the Learning approach, all of this would change. One major shift that learning approach could bring about in the Indian education system is to introduce constructivism in educational institutions. Considering constructivism is the only possible framework for teaching and learning. It is one way of thinking about how knowledge is formed and understanding takes place.

Title: INDIAN HIGHER EDUCATION: TRENDS, GROWTH & CHALLENGES
Abstract: It is widely recognised that higher education promotes social and economic development by enhancing human and technical capabilities of any country like India. It provides an opportunity to critically reflect upon the social, economic, cultural, moral and spiritual issues facing humanity. It contributes to national development through dissemination of specialized knowledge and skills. Indian higher education system has undergone massive expansion since independence in terms of growth, enrolment. Keeping in above backdrop, the present paper is an attempt to analyze the trend in growth and challenges of Indian higher education system in the present era. It is clear from the analysis that there has been considerable improvement in the higher education in India in both quantitative as well as qualitative terms. But issues like access, equity, inclusion, quality, privatization and financing concerning higher education, are very complex and interrelated with political, economical geographical and international dimensions. To develop India as a knowledge hub and to become a prosperous partner in global economy, India has to qualitatively strengthen education in general and higher education with research and development in particular. For providing ROTI (Bread) and employment to the manpower, we need to increase returns on training investment (ROTI). To achieve efficiency and deliver quality education, we certainly need good governance which means to us as SMART (SIMPLE, Moral, Action oriented Responsive and Transparent) administration for every institution at all levels in India.

Title: THE NEED FOR DESIGN APPROACH IN OPPORTUNITY IDENTIFICATION STAGE OF PRODUCT INNOVATION
Abstract: The role of innovation in organisational growth and survival is often emphasised, but the role of design in the critical phase of opportunity identification stage of innovation is yet not widely recognized. The broadening scope of invention and idea generation for opportunity identification beyond technology and marketing; the recognition of creative opportunity identification possibilities and the recognition of design beyond its role in new product development leads to interesting possibilities. Design is already playing an important role in new product development. It is argued that extension of this role to the opportunity identification phase will not only help in arriving at new opportunities but will also enable seamless integration between opportunity identification and new product development. A planned approach to opportunity identification through design thinking and approach can lead to establishing systems for continuous innovation.

Title: INFLUENCE OF PERSONALITY DIMENSIONS AND AESTHETIC ORIENTATION ON CONSUMER�S COLOUR PREFERENCE DURING CAR PURCHASE
Abstract: Purchasing a car can be a normal decision for some, but can be a very special decision for others. Of the many attributes a car signifies, aesthetics is one of the most significant while making a decision. Colour of a car has been rated as a very important attribute as per studies carried by various agencies so far. The objective of the study is to highlight importance of colour in selecting a vehicle and finding a correlation between influence of personality traits of a person and his choice of colour. It has also been seen that the purchase decision is dependent on Aesthetic orientation of a person which is in turn dependent on personality traits. So the study tries to find the dependence of colour on both personality as well as aesthetic orientation. Methodology deployed for the study is surveying 214 people of different backgrounds and questioning them on the basis of a questionnaire, and mapping their behaviour basis the responses and generating a pattern for understanding choice of colour dependent on the personality traits and aesthetic orientation. The study performed first detected the personality traits of a person, and hence aesthetic orientation was defined. It was largely seen that personality traits are very significant in determining the colour preference, but linking it to aesthetic orientation gave results which were better linked to colour choices. The study was carried basis age groups, gender, and MHI. In the study a strong correlation was found and a scale was designed mapping color of car basis the personality traits of a person.

Title: ANALYTICAL DESIGN OF REED
Abstract: Frequency is an important electrical quantity which is present in only Alternating Current (AC) circuits. Frequency measurement is very important in various AC applications, especially in AC power systems designed to run efficiently at one frequency only. When AC is being generated by an electro-mechanical alternator, frequency will be directly proportional to speed of the machine shaft and it could be measured by measuring the shaft speed. To measure the frequency at some distance other means of measurement will be necessary. One simple method of frequency measurement in power systems utilizes the principle of mechanical resonance. As every physical object possessing the property of elasticity has an inherent frequency at which it will prefer to vibrate. Various researchers focused on its construction manipulation to achieve reduced calibration time but rare focus on reed.

Title: PHILOSOPHY AND NATURE OF MATHEMATICS
Abstract: There is nothing in our lives, in our world, in our universe, that cannot be expressed with mathematical theories, numbers, and formulae. Mathematics is the queen of science and the king of arts; to me it is the backbone of all systems of knowledge. Mathematics is a tool that has been used by man forages.  It is a key that can unlock many doors and show the way to different logical answers to seemingly impossible problems.  Not only can it solve equations and problems in everyday life, but it can also express quantities and values precisely with no question or room for other interpretation. There is no room for subjectivity. Though there is a lot of mathematics in politics, there is no room for politics in mathematics.  Coming from a powerful leader two + two can not become five it will remain four. Mathematics is not fundamentally empirical �it does not rely on sensory observation or instrumental measurement to determine what is true. Indeed, mathematical objects themselves cannot be observed at all! Mathematics is a logical science, cleanly structured, and well-founded.

Title: DEVELOPING AWARENESS AMONG PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS 
AGAINST GENDER RELATED CRIMES

Abstract: Women�s equal dignity and human rights as full human beings are enshrined in the basic instruments of today�s international community.  From the Charter of the United Nations� endorsement of the equal rights of men and women, to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the subsequent international treaties and declarations, the rights of women are central to our vision of a democratic society. But the fine words of these documents and of the Vienna Declaration in 1993 and the declaration of Beijing in 1995 stand in sharp contrast to the daily reality of life for millions of women.  Of the 1.3 billion people living in poverty, 70 per cent are women; the majority of the world�s refugees are women; female illiteracy is invariably higher than male illiteracy. Women and girl-children are treated as commodities in cross-border prostitution rackets and the pornography industry.  Millions of girls are still subject to genital mutilation, while women in every country are regular victims of domestic violence. In many countries, women lack access to reproductive health care and every day women are targeted in armed conflicts.  Women�s economic, social and cultural rights continue to be neglected.

Title: THE PROBLEM OF NAXALISM WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THEIR RIGHTS
Abstract: In last six decades, India has achieved significant milestones in the areas of economic growth, cultural assimilation and global political interests. However, the 8% tribal population of the country has been left to protect themselves against the guile of rich and powerful eying the natural resources and minerals of their indigenous land. Only geographical distance and remoteness of their habitat offered them some protection. But their isolation has also exposed them to the ruthless might of Naxal cadres, supposedly struggling to throw out the rulers of the country through the barrel of gun. None, except Mao would be happy in his grave to find faithful followers in a remote land that he never visited. This paper concentrates on the problems of naxalites with special reference to their rights.

Rapid developments in information and communication technology have provided enormous data to the managers to arrive at decision, comparable to market standards. This leads to complex process. How to make decisions in this complex and competitive environment? How to manage the employee retention? In the today era no one can deny the importance and credibility of roles and responsibilities of Human Resource Management in an organization with reference to women participation as it ensures the achievement of maximum growth for the organization.

Title: SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITION OF THE FISHERMEN COMMUNITY OF PUMLEN LAKE: A CASE STUDY IN TOKPACHING VILLAGE OF THOUBAL DISTRICT, MANIPUR
Abstract: The paper is an attempt by the authors to highlight the socio-economic condition of the fishermen community of Tokpaching Village of Thoubal District of Manipur who fishes for their livelihood on the Pumlen Lake, the second largest fresh water wetland in the state of Manipur. The fisherman community belongs to low income community. The total of 50 families of the village was surveyed during the study. The findings reveal that total number of population of the village was 469 among them 63.53% (Literate) and 36.46% (Illiterate). Among the literate population 52.38% has primary level education, 30.95% has upper primary school level, 11.31% has high school level and only 3.57% of the fisherman possessed higher degrees. The peoples were employed in different sectors such as agriculture (26.29%), fishing (29.74%), business (17.67%), in-service (14.22%) and any other works (12.06%). 82.94% of the total population of the village lived in the katcha houses and remaining (17.05 %) in pukka houses. Income level was lowest (Rs. 500-1000 per month) among the age group of 10 � 20 and highest (2000- 8000 per month) among the age group of 40-50. The overall fish production of the Lake was 1652 kg per annum. Out of these, miscellaneous fish caught was the maximum i.e. 727 kg per annum (44.12%) while those of cat fishes were minimum i.e. 248 kg per annum (15.02%). Production of carp fish variety was the lowest while production of small fishes was the highest. The findings also reveal that the villagers were engaged in other occupational sector other than fishing due to reduction in fish production in the beels resulted by overexploitation, siltation, human activities etc.

Abstract: Diabetes is one of the chronic medical condition with high prevalence rates. Long standing diabetes is associated with impaired cognitive functioning. Yoga is known to improve the cognitive functions in normal and chronic diseased individuals. Mind sound resonance technique (MSRT) is one of the mindfulness based yogic relaxation technique, know to enhance cognitive functions. The objective comprised to study the immediate effect of MSRT practice on cognitive function in patient with type 2 diabetes.Forty three (18 male) type 2 diabetes patientswith an age range between 30 to 65 (mean age � SD = 56.83 � 12.54) with minimum history of diabetes since last 5 years, were enrolled in this study. All the subjects underwent training of 15 sessions of MSRT practice in 6 days. 7th day subjects were administered DLST before and immediately after the MSRT intervention. Data was found normally distributed by Shapiro-Wilcox test. The paired sample t test was used to see the pre-post changes.There was significant improvement in total score (p = 0.001; +24.99) and net score (p = 0.001; +25.47) along with a nonsignificant decrease in wrong attempts (p- 0.855) of DLST.Present pilot study indicates  that MSRT may have a potential role in enhancing psychomotor performance in patients suffering from diabetes,  immediately after the practice. These findings need confirmation from studies with a larger sample size and randomized controlled design, which will be  implicated in the future.

Title: WILD LIFE AS THE GROWING TOURISM SECTOR IN THE COUNTRY � A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE YOUTHS OF TWO DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHICAL AREAS
Abstract: Tourism Industry in India is one of the most lucrative industries in the country and contributes substantially to foreign exchange earned. In the past couple of decades with good supported promotion this industry has developed as an important means of employment generation. In fact during 2010, seven million tourists visited India and spent US $ 13.9 billion, thus making India one of the major global tourist destinations. Augmented tourism in India has created jobs in a variety of associated sectors, both directly and indirectly. Tourism is one of the success stories of the 20th century and is concerned more with the satisfaction of individual rather than with the scientific and technological achievements. Almost 20 million people are now working in India�s Tourism Industry. India�s tourism is thriving, owing to a huge flow in both business and leisure travel by foreign and domestic tourists and is expected to generate approximately US$ 275.5 billion by 2018. There has been an increase in environmental awareness and pressure of urbanization. Now, urban masses look for new get away locations, where they can get involved in active outdoor recreation. Thus, national parks and sanctuaries have emerged as the favourite destinations. The visitors to these national parks are usually the youth in 18 to 30 years of age group. They are driven by the motivation to do something �adventurous�.  This study was conducted in two cities with different set of respondents; since they are in the close proximity of the National Parks and Wild Life Sanctuaries. The prime objective of study has been to understand the reason of preference of Wild Life Tourism and the expectations of the tourists about various aspects during their course of travel and stay. The basic procedure adapted was tourist interviews through convenient sampling. The total respondents were about 326 between the age group of 20 years to 45 years. This included males and females SEC A1, A2, B1 and B2. It is assumed that the people of these SEC have the buying capacity as an influence of and reaction to word of mouth and advertisements. Both quantitative and qualitative data was collected for analysis.

Title: CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY: A CASE STUDY OF GUJARAT MINERAL DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (G.M.D.C)
Abstract: As per The Companies Act 2013, compulsory spending on socially responsible activities is now a matter of debate and discussion among the industrialists, social activists, Government, managers, researchers and various institutions. In today�s scenario social responsibility is not merely a concept of charity or donation but organizations are trying to go beyond this concept and executing the whole CSR project as a need based phenomena. Awareness of this term of CSR is actually very less among the common people. Good number of government organizations and private organizations are serving to the society under this head. Involvement of all stake holders is essential part in every CSR activity. More or less every stake holder in every organization is associated with responsible activities. It is a humble duty of the owner of the company to nurture its organization and employees on the basis of values and to create a culture where employees engage themselves with the organization positively and have respect for the same. Top level management of the company should channelize CSR activities in co ordination with the employees of the department and try to make them work in socially responsible way.

Title: CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IN TERMS OF COMPANY IMAGE, CONSULTANCY & CUSTOMER SERVICE: A CASE OF JINDAL INDUSTRIES
Abstract: Customer satisfaction is key to business success. There is a great deal of information being published today and discussed on the topic customer service and customer satisfaction. Proponents of these topics or approaches to conducting business tend to emphasize the importance of conforming to specifications, keeping processes in control, meeting requirements, giving customers what they want and handling complaints effectively. It is a simple truth. Satisfied customers do more business with you more often. They purchase more each time around, and they purchase more often. They also refer their family and friends to you. The link between sales, service, satisfaction and profits is direct. The more a customer is satisfied, the more he or she spends. The more customers spend, the more you sell. And usually, when you sell more, your profits are greater. The paper highlights the customer satisfaction in terms of company image, technical consultancy provided and customer services in Jindal Industries.

Title: �X�TRAPRENEURSHIP- A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO BRING CLARITY IN ENTREPRENEURIAL RESEARCH
Abstract: Research into entrepreneurship and associated terminologies is subject to a lack of clarity and consensus in definition or distinct research approach. Many researchers use different terms to denote or illustrate similar phenomena. Some emphasize the commonalities and defend the use of interchangeable terms, others strongly argue over their distinguishing features. This conceptual paper will discuss these inconsistencies and introduce a new approach called the �X�trapreneurship approach to classify distinct domains of entrepreneurship: independent process, bottom-up process and top-down process. This three domain approach will help in resolving the plague of inconsistencies surrounding entrepreneurial research areas giving researchers a distinct framework to identify the position of different entrepreneurial terminologies. Using this approach, a revised hierarchy of entrepreneurship terminologies is proposed in this paper which will bring some form of simplification and clarity thereby serving as a guideline for future research and adding a unique contribution to the entrepreneurial research field.

Title: PHILOSOPHICAL IDEOLOGY OF J. KRISHNAMURTHY TO STRENGTHEN HIGHER EDUCATION
Abstract: One major reason for the holocaust prevailing all over the world may be lack of values. Dr. Radhakrishnan has rightly commented, �You cannot make or build a nation by just bricks. You have to establish the minds of the young people.� According to Sardar Patel education without values is no use. M. K. Gandhi, a man of vision has also proclaimed that character formation is suitable foundation of education. Education in its totality refers to development of individuals. Therefore, it should nourish and awaken the noble qualities in human nature. It should nurture and assimilate values in education. It has been observed in the National Policy on Education (N.P.E 1986), �The growing concern over the erosion of essential values and an increasing cynicism in society has brought to focus the need for re-adjustment in order to make education a forceful tool of cultivation of social and moral values.�Thus, value education is required even in Higher Education to make a positive effort to bring about synthesis of physical, intellectual, emotional, aesthetic, moral and spiritual values in the students. Indian perspective clearly states that � Good conduct is our supreme duty�. Actually our forefathers revered good conduct more than wealth. In this context the author endorses the plea to revive the philosophy of Indian philosophers to strengthen the fabric of our culture to make strengthen higher education.

Title: LEARNING STYLES IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS
Abstract: It is important to study learning styles because recent studies have shown that a match between teaching and learning styles helps to motivate students� process of learning. That is why teachers should identify their own teaching styles as well as their learning styles to obtain better results in the classroom. The aim is to have a balanced teaching style and to adapt activities to meet students� style and to involve teachers in this type of research to assure the results found in this research study. Over 100 students complete a questionnaire to determine if their learning styles are auditory, visual, or kinesthetic. Discovering these learning styles will allow the students to determine their own personal strengths and weaknesses and learn from them. Teachers can incorporate learning styles into their classroom by identifying the learning styles of each of their students, matching teaching styles to learning styles for difficult tasks, strengthening weaker learning styles. The purpose of this study is to explain learning styles, teaching styles match or mismatch between learning and teaching styles, visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles among learners.

Title: EUSTRESS : A UNIQUE DIMENSION TO STRESS MANAGEMENT
Abstract: Stress, like conflict, has a positive as well as a negative side. But that positive side tends to be overshadowed by concern with the negative. A life without stress is a life without challenges, simulation or change. Many positive and exciting events like- promotion, decision making, learning, leadership- have been found to create stress. Does that mean these events should be avoided? The answer is obviously �No�. Unfortunately, when most researchers talk about stress and the need to reduce it, they tend to overlook its positive side. This research paper is based on analytical research work which tries to focus on the positive side of stress which is termed as Eustress. Eustress is the positive psychological response to a stressor, indicated by the presence of positive psychological states. This paper�s purpose is fourfold. First, it introduces the idea of eustress vs. distress. Second, it presents the models to show that how eustress can be helpful to employees. Thirdly, it assess that how self efficacy influence the level of eustress. The fourth section covers the factors that may increase or decrease the chances of experiencing eustress. At the end it is concluded that stress is not always a bad thing. Stress is simply the response to changes that create taxing demands. This paper highlights that there is a difference between eustress, which is a term for positive stress, and distress, which refers to negative stress. In daily life, we often use the term �stress� to describe negative situations. This leads many people to believe that all stress is bad, which is not true. Eustress, or positive stress, helps in motivating employees to improve their job performance.
Key words: Eustress, stress, distress, job performance and self-efficacy

Title: IMPACT OF HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM IN INDIA THROUGH RUSA
Abstract: The paper surveys the extent to which the higher education system in India has a bearing on the economy. The subject has rightly assumed unprecedented importance in the country and continues to be extensively researched and deliberated. The paradox about the coexistence of economic growth and disparity has also been discussed to the point of redundancy. This research inquiry is pioneering in that it places disparity in the economy as well as the country�s economic performance in comparison with other Asian economies in the framework of shortfalls in the higher education system. The authors argue that in order for higher education to contribute constructively to the economy, the systemic lacunae must be isolated and rectified. The paper examines the concern by delving in to a chronological survey of the parallel evolution of higher education and economic growth in the country since independence from colonial rule. Further, the study takes stock of the present Government initiatives that have been undertaken in this regard and makes inquiries into the scope of their application and assessment of their merit. Rashtriya Uchchatra Shikska Abhiyan (National Higher Education Mission) or RUSA is a holistic centrally sponsored scheme for the development of higher education. Built on the success story of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan  and Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan , RUSA will be spread over two plan periods, for improving access, equity and quality in the state higher education system.

Title: EVALUATIVE STUDY ON SPECIAL CENTRAL ASSISTANCE (SCA) IN THE STATE OF ODISHA
Abstract: The Ministry of Tribal Affairs extends Special Central Assistance (SCA) to the Tribal Sub Plan (TSP) States and Union Territories. SCA is primarily meant for income generating family oriented schemes and infrastructure incidental thereto. The present research study on the �Evaluative Study on Special Central Assistance (SCA) in the State of Odisha� has been carried out with an objective to assess the socio economic characteristics and to assess the impact of the scheme towards an increase in income and employment generation. Major findings are, a large chunk of the SCA amount is utilized towards providing subsidy for bank linked schemes and/or linked with earmarked grants. Critical gaps are not identified. ITDAs have not been able to play effective role in coordinating with line departments which are engaged in raising the productivity levels of the tribals. The study suggests, schemes under sericulture, agriculture, horticulture will make tribals economically strong. Land Based activities should be the focus. Training programs for ST unemployed women on Nursing, Medical Laboratory, Tailoring, Computer Training, Beauty Parlor and other Vocational Training may be encouraged.

Title: SELF-HELP GROUPS : A STUDY OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS IN MYSORE CITY
Abstract: The society is male dominated and finance is also controlled by men. When financial freedom is detained from women then their social and political freedom are also detained. Governments around the world gave many social programs especially for women to develop but male dominated society has given a check in reaching these programs to women. The major hurdles for any women to develop economically are education, participation in economic activity and finally return. Micro-finance through SHGs made a small change in improving financial condition of the women. The sample respondents of the present empirical study accepted that their financial condition is improved but it is not enough. Even after becoming the members of SHGs, women could not affordable to durables. They exercised household decisions in festivals and purchases. It may be concluded that women require encouragement at family level and opportunities at society level in order to develop economically.

Title: INDIAN TRIBAL ADOLESCENT: A REVIEW ON THEIR EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
Abstract: Emotional Intelligence is the ability to identify and manage one�s own emotions and the emotion of others. Adolescence is the most critical stage to the emotional problems, thus educating adolescents about emotions and helping them to deal with others as well as their actions can be very useful in their daily struggles. Adolescents who are academically brilliant may sometimes be socially inept. Thus, emotional intelligence will help an adolescent to reduce stress by decreasing conflict, improving relationships and understanding. Numerous researches had showed that emotional intelligence differs according to community differences. The scheduled tribes are economically inferior and they are routinely marginalized and deprived of their access to fundamental resources including health and educational services. Therefore, the present paper is an attempt to review the emotional intelligence of the tribal adolescent school students in India. The paper also attempted to highlight the importance of emotional intelligence on the overall development of adolescent tribal school students in India. Further, the paper also suggests some need based measures for improving emotional intelligence of different tribes of India.

Title: TEACHER AND SOCIAL CHANGE: EDUCATIVE PROCESS
Abstract: In the fast changing world, a country, a community or an institution will not be able to keep pace with the changing times if it does not have enlightened vision for the future. There has been a qualitative change in the role of the institution as well as the role of the teacher. While theinstitutions are called upon to deal with production oriented society, action-oriented youth and process-oriented education. The efficacy and strength of an educational system largely depends upon the quality of its teachers. Creativity is another aspect which the teacher cannot ignore. She has to accept challenge of generating thirst for knowledge, a search for truth and a spirit for enquiring for experience. Critical thinking are good for everyone. Critical thinking an anticipation towards thinking ahead which offers intellectual tools to the teaching community. But the shift is most evident in our institutions, where Critical thinking has replaced rote learning as the central goal of education. Curriculum occupies a central place in any educational system. The realisation of educational objectives will depend on the type of curriculum that is framed and prescribed as well as on the way it is implemented. The curriculum in the future will have to be geared to the development of a new international order. This will involve, to begin with, development of national outlook which will ultimately lead to the development of global perspective. Therefore, a curriculum has to be future oriented, dynamic, relevant to social needs and balanced.Concepts having potentialities for the development of such an attitude will have to be given a prominent place in the curriculum of different disciplines. Motivation is most important factor in the learning process. Motivation is the art of stimulating interest in the students where there has been no such interest, or where it is as yet unfelt by the students, and also of cultivating the interest already present in behalf of socially approved conduct. In all types of learning there must be a goal, and hence, we can say that all learning is motivated. To improvethe conditions of effective learning the teacher can do by influencing motivation. Again, the teacher is called upon to be a change agent, a facilitator sensitive to the development needs of the community.The conventional accent has been on information transmission, fact finding and skill development. The traditional wisdom is lost in the quest for dubious knowledge and knowledge is lost under mountains of information.The role of teacher has assumed special significances, since teachers today are interested with serene task of enkindling the spirit of global awareness among students. The paper in an attempt to provide necessary professional knowledge and guides the teachers to developed the required skills to make their teaching talent effective.

Title: INCLUSIVE EDUCATION - A WAY TO REACH OUT SPECIAL CHILDREN: AN EXPERIMENT
Abstract: The classroom is a laboratory for the teachers to experiment on behaviors of an individual and mould their personality. Some individuals find it harder to learn with other individuals of the same age needs to get support from their teachers, or some extra help in the schools. A few individuals have more complicated learning difficulties, and may need extra help or equipment in school to help them access an appropriate education. Owing to lack of knowledge, educational access and technology, such individuals are initially treated as unwanted and segregated from other individuals and their education is carried out in special schools. The concept of Inclusive Education has changed the outlook for the children having all those deformities and differences. To touch the emotional domain of pre service teachers, an experiment was carried out with special children. The present paper reflects the views of pre service teachers towards special children.

Title: DISTURBED SLEEP PATTERNS AND SELF WORTH IN YOUTH: A MUSIC THERAPY INTERVENTION
Abstract: Sleep, a vital ingredient in life, is an active and complex rhythmic state that may get disturbed by a variety of reasons. Daytime sleepiness, sleep deprivation, and irregular sleep schedules are highly prevalent among college students, as 50% report daytime sleepiness and 70% attain insufficient sleep. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of music therapy in improving disturbed sleep patterns and low self-worth of university students. It was hypothesized that Post-intervention sleep quality scores in experimental group would be significantly better than pre-intervention scores; and Music therapy would enhance self-worth of university students. Participants in the experimental group would show improved self-worth relative to the participants in the control group. A pre-post experimental-control assessment design was adopted. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (Buysse DJ et al 1989) and Contingencies of Self Worth (Crocker & Luhtanen, 2002) were administered to identify university students having faulty sleep patterns and low self-worth. Music therapy was given for consecutive three weeks for half an hour daily. After intervention, sleep quality index and contingencies of self-worth were re-administered to see the efficacy of music therapy. Results revealed that music therapy made a significant improvement in students� sleep patterns as significant difference was observed between both experimental and control groups on Subjective sleep quality (t=1.21*), Sleep latency (t=2.63*), Sleep duration (t=2.24*), Habitual sleep efficiency (t=4.64**), Sleep disturbances (t=10.46**), and Daytime dysfunction (t=3.97*). The effect of intervention was also found to be significant for self-worth domains for subjects of experimental group on physical appearance (t=2.42*), Outdoing others in competition (t=1.39*), Academic competence (t=2.16*), Being a virtuous or moral person (t=2.09*), and God�s love (t=1.64*) as the difference between experimental and control group came out to be statistically significant.

Thereby, there is need of special education for disable children as they are also children of India having educational rights same to the normal children as per law. But, simply giving special education can�t help the disable children to make them normalise. There is need of quality special education being provided at mental homes in Manipur. This paper examines critically that whether the mental homes in Manipur are providing quality special education in respect of Socio-Economic, Religious background of all students, Birth And Health history, Category of retardation and level of learning, Distribution of students in class wise, Student-Teacher Ratio, Infrastructural Facilities and Teaching-Learning Process etc. This paper also suggested to improve the status of special education being provided at different Mental Homes in Manipur, which will help the progress of inclusive education in Manipur.

Title: WOMEN EMPOWERMENT AND DEVELOPING INDIA WITH RESPECT TO EDUCATION
Abstract: Women empowerment, referring to the empowerment of women in our present society, has become a significant topic of discussion in regards to development and economics. It can also point to approaches regarding other marginal genders in a particular political or social context. While often interchangeably used, the more comprehensive concept of Gender empowerment refers to people of any gender, stressing the distinction between biological sex and gender as a role. It thereby also refers to other marginalized genders in a particular political or social context. In India, there are still illiterate and poor village women financially dependent on their family members, even though they are hard working and have their own abilities to be financially self-dependent. Still, they won't get any good job and no financial support to start their own household businesses. The subject of empowerment of women has becoming a burning issue all over the world including India since last few decades. Many agencies of United Nations in their reports have emphasized that gender issue is to be given utmost priority. It is held that women now cannot be asked to wait for any more for equality. Inequalities between men and women and discrimination against women have also been age-old issues all over the world. Thus, women�s quest for equality with man is a universal phenomenon. �Men�s jobs and Women�s jobs�,  How can the areas of employment found throughout the world be divided into female and male occupations when certain types of work always done by men in some countries are just as regularly done by women in others? With increasing literacy among women in India, their entry into many types of work, formerly the preserve of men, women can now look upon the bearing and raising of their children not as a life�s work in itself but as an episode. It women have started taking men�s work, it could be said that men have taken over women�s.

Title: POSITION OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE IN NEW EDUCATION POLICY
Abstract: India consists of a multi-society which has welcomed so many languages from aboard as well as encouraged our own on mother tongue also Most of the states have their own mother tongue as their regional languages.  Even though, Hindi is considered as our national language, English language has come up as a connecting link among the people of various states of India. It is essential to study English language in this age of globalization. The common practice all over the world in the modern age is to learn English language to facilitate easy understanding of political, social, cultural and religious issues because it is easier than French, German, Greek and Sanskrit. It has emerged as the most important language of world.  English is the language of the British and it is wrong view to hold that it is a language of that country alone. English has evolved to be a language of science and technology. Majority of books for higher studies are written in English. The Indians must not keep their eyes closed in this adventurous period of globalization. India in process of becoming a developed country has to develop the citizens capable of contributing for the development of the nation. It is impossible to educate the citizens of a nation with a foreign language. But curriculum developers can design such textbooks to give good command over English language upto coming generation.

Title: WOMEN AND HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOMENT IN MANIPUR
Abstract: Human Resource Development constitutes both genders; male and female of a country. Man alone cannot take the role of socio-economic development of a country without women. Women are an important ingredient put in the socio-economic development of the country. Nearly half of the world population is constituted by women and women are part and parcel of Human Resource Development. If we have desire to develop then women are to be developed beforehand. But very unfortunately in all societies, women are considered inferior to their male counterparts. In the developed countries, women are somewhat in the growth process attaining the objective of equality and human development. But this is not supported by the experience of the underdeveloped or Third World country. We can look at the historical facts of the women and their role in a society, though it is clear that gender is much neglected, women do play a great role in the past and the present. The international, national and state scenario of women status proved that women are also an important factor of the development of a country and their role is remarkable. Development is incomplete without women�s participation and contribution.

Title: EXPERIENCING CONTRIBUTION OF WOMEN IN PANCHAYATI RAJ INSTITUTION OF SAMBHAL DISTRICT
Abstract: Constitution of India was amended by way of 73rd amendment in 1992, wherein constitution and establishment of Panchayats was made obligatory. It was the resolve of the Parliament to take democracy to the grassroot level, which climaxed in the carrying out of this amendment. A period of twenty three years has passed since 73rd amendment and the present study was commenced with an exertion to study the contribution of women in Panchayats. The study was conducted in two blocks of Sambhal district namely (Sambhal and Asmoli block) of Moradabad Division. A total of 50 women respondents out of 147 women respondents from Sambhal and Asmoli block were randomly selected for the study. The tool used for conquering information was an Interview Schedule. The findings exposed that majority of the women elected as Panchayat members were marital, belonged to joint families and were mostly educated. They were mainly housewives before joining politics. Husbands of majority of the women enthused with them and provided complete morale support and stood by them throughout elections. Economic liberation was the main motive in joining politics as specified by majority of them. The women confronted tremendous administrative problems, and had scanty knowledge about working of panchayats. They could not exercise their right of sovereignty of expression as their husbands or other male members did not support them. A proportion more still needs to be done by the Government in training and empowering the women to exercise their authority at all the levels of Panchayati Raj institutions, local NGO�s and government organizations need to come accelerative to train women for this role.

Title: TASAR FOR TRIBAL PROSPERITY � AN EXPERIENCE OF BAIF IN PROMOTION OF TASAR SERICULTURE BASED LIVELIHOOD PROMOTION IN MAHARASHTRA
Abstract: Promotion of sustainable livelihood programme for weaker section especially tribals and conservation of natural resources and its judicious utilization offers a huge challenge for any development agency. Over a period of 40 years, BAIF has taken up several activities related to different aspects of natural resource management with sericulture through number of projects in the field of research, extension, training, technology development and demonstrations. BAIF initiated different livelihood progarmmes in 21 blocks of Chandrapur, Gondia, Gadchiroli districts during 2004, focusing on tribal development through appropriate region specific interventions viz. wadi (Horticulture), improved agriculture, watershed, women empowerment, livestock development, community development and non timber forest produce (NTFP) etc.  It was evident that, traditionally the tribal families are involved in some NTFP activities viz. collection of gum, mahua & mahua seeds, honey & bees wax, charoli, aonla, bel, tadi, and herbal plants, etc which are sold by them to local traders in weekly market  for cash or barter them for other goods. By considering the potential and coexisting the unique ecosystem, covered with forest and abundant tasar host plantations in Gadchiroli, Gondia and Chandrapur district, offered a great opportunity to introduce highly remunerative NTFP activities like tasar sericulture for tribal families. Tasar sericulture is subsidiary occupation of forest and forest-fringe dwellers and practiced traditionally by Dhivar community. However, Tasar silkworm rearing was unpredictable source of income because rearer uses very crude method of handling silkworms and worms susceptible to various climatic fluctuations. BAIF intervention in promotion of sustainable livelihoods through tasar sericulture with allied activities focused at strengthening traditional activity by appropriate technology interventions.

Title: THE ROLE OF TRANS-ASIAN RAILWAY FOR UZBEKISTAN
Abstract: As a double land-locked country Uzbekistan craves for any additional opportunity to have extra more transport infrastructure in order make both export and import process easy and cost-effective. It is clear that Soviet transport legacy that was designed in a Moscow-centric manner is not sufficient at all for satisfying country�s wider and diverse needs in transportation, e.g. more comfortable access to sea ports. The Trans-Asian Railway project that in its very sense assumes connecting almost all countries of such a huge continent as Asia, including Uzbekistan, with each other on the one hand and with Europe on other, means a lot for this young nation that is actively growing with average GDP growth of %7 a year and intensive attraction of foreign direct investments.

Title: RIGHTS OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITY AND THE LAW
Abstract: The light at the end of the tunnel for India�s 100 million people with disabilities appears to be getting closer as the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment made public the latest version of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Bill. This Bill which seeks to replace the Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995, attempts to bring India in line with the 21st  century understanding of the rights of persons with disabilities as captured in the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) ratified by India. This version of the Bill is the last in a series of versions that were made public by the Ministry over the last two years. There are some major differences between this version and earlier versions and the changes proposed are a mixed bag - some progressive and some regressive ones. An attempt is made in this paper to examine the existing Law on disability vis a vis the proposed bill and the Constitution.

Title: ICT�A TOOL FOR QUALITY TEACHING IN B.ED. PROGRAMME
Abstract: In teaching B.Ed .trainees use teaching aids, like, charts, models � static & working, specimen, slides, because teachers are given training both in preparation and use of Audio-visual Aids. It is a known fact that majority of schools do not have appropriate teaching aids related to the school content. So teachers have no facility to use A � V Aids during teaching. The use of A � V Aids get further restricted due to unmotivated persons becoming teachers. Central Government realized the need of improving quality of education through the use of ICT. This helped in improving the quality of teaching in schools having no teacher to teach the subject, less competent teacher, schools having poor or no facility of teaching aids,The use of ICT in education lends itself to more student centered learning settings and often this creates some tensions for some teachers and students. But with the world moving rapidly into digital media and information, the role of ICT in education is becoming More and more important and this importance will continue to grow and develop in the 21st century. . To keep pace with the changing world, teachers must have current knowledge and skills of educational technology.. The growing use of ICT as an instructional medium is changing and will likely continue to change many of the strategies employed by both teachers and students in the learning process.

Title: STREET CHILDREN: EDUCATION & REFORMS
Abstract: The word �Children� seems to be equal to �joyful�. We bear in mind so many smiling faces of young beautiful kids. But the term street children give an opposite impression. A street child is a term for children experiencing homelessness who live on the streets of a city, town or village.Other words a street child is someone for whom the street has become his or her habitual abode and or source of livelihood, and who is inadequately protected, supervised, or directed by responsible adults. Homeless youth are often called street kids and street youth. Some street children, notably in more developed nations are part of a subcategory called thrown away children who are children that have been forced to leave home. Thrown away children are more likely to come from single-parent homes. Street children are often subject to abuse, neglect, exploitation, or in extreme cases, murder by clean-up squads that have been hired by local businesses or police. In western societies, such children are sometimes treated as homeless children rather than criminals or beggars. It is estimated that more than 400000 street children in India exist. Mainly because of family conflict, they come to live on the streets and take on the full responsibilities of caring for themselves, including working to provide for the protecting themselves. Boys and girls of all ages are found living and working in public spaces, and are visible in the great majority of the world�s urban centres. Though street children do sometimes band together for greater security, they are often exploited by employers and the police.

Title: CONTRACT FARMING IN INDIA: MODELS AND IMPACTS
Abstract: The emerging institutional arrangements such as CF are promoted on the plea that these share production and marketing risks of the producers and in a way these are seen as a tool to diversify the Indian agriculture and making the farmers� viable. However, a reality check on the CF arrangements with the farmers points a gloomy picture. The present models are not completely integrating the small and marginal farmers in the system. Most of the studies show that the companies prefer to work with mainly medium and large farmers in contracts.

Title:PUBLIC EXPENDITURE ON HEALTH AND ITS IMPACT ON HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE AND HEALTH STATUS IN HARYANA
Abstract: Health is an important factor for human resource development and is affected by availability of healthcare services. In this regard, the role of public expenditure on health to provide better health facilities and to improve health status of the masses becomes indispensible in any economy including Haryana. With this backdrop, the present study is an attempt to examine the impact of public expenditure (PEH) on health infrastructure and health status for the State of Haryana. For the same, the indicators of health infrastructure and status are selected and the data on the specified indicators are collected for the period of 1990-91 to 2011-12. Thereafter, the indicators of health infrastructure and health status are regressed on public expenditure on health (PEH) and its ingredients namely development revenue expenditure on health (DREH) and capital expenditure on health (CEH). It is found that these three expenditures have same direction of influences but difference occurs in the magnitude of their impacts. These expenditures having appreciable compound annual growth rate (CAGR) are impacting number of primary health centers (PHCs), community health centers (CHCs), sub-centers (SCs), total number of allopathic as well as ayurvedic, unani and homoeopathic (AUH) institutions positively. While their impact on number of hospitals, dispensaries, beds, BR, DR and IMR is negative. However, the remaining indicators are found to be expenditure inelastic which calls for further judgments of the cause of such results along with negative impact of public expenditure on health infrastructure. Also, magnitude of effects is found to be more in case of DREH followed by PEH and CEH despite lower CAGR of DREH than PEH and CEH. Accordingly, DREH calls for more emphasis; due to its highest impacts and a hope can be made that increase in DREH will essentially enhance health infrastructure and health status efficiently. Moreover, with DREH, there is strong case to raise CEH being a major source of creating health infrastructure. Above all, Government must increase public expenditure on health with its components (DREH and CEH) in every year�s budget; so that their positive impact could be sustained and demand-supply gaps in health facilities could be filled. Along with this, there is rationale for adopting good governance to check corrupt practices; and to allocate funds adequately on each and every health facility without financial leakages and wastages of funds so that our health infrastructure could be developed in sufficient quantity and better quality; and consequently, health status can be upgraded in Haryana.

Title:CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR TOWARDS PRIVATE LABEL BRAND WITH RESPECT TO APPERALS
Abstract: The idea of private labelling is not novel idea in India. The origin of private label can be found from the ancient days, where goods of private labels are sold along with the national brands. To augment earning and improve customer loyalty, a lot of retailers have bowed to private label products. Private label products are extremely eye-catching to retailers because these products can enhance gross margins. Retailers have identified that profit margins on products planned and sourced by their own teams are considerably higher than on branded products. In the present study the authors have attempted to get wider knowledge and more understanding of customers� behaviour towards private label brands with special reference to management students in the Gandhinagar city in the state of Gujarat. A quantitative method will be used in the study. Primary data of management students� towards private label brands will be collected through questionnaire. The results of the questionnaire will be analyzed and interpreted.

Title:A CONCEPTUAL AND FACTORIAL REVIEW OF THE DETERMINANTS OF INCOME TAX COMPLIANCE
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to review the factors from a viewpoint of social marketing that control taxpayer compliance. To conduct study, 20 years data from across the globe availablebetween 1984 and 2014 was collected. There were too many findings revealed during the study. First, many of the literature applied varied nature of factors, which in turn make the comparison too difficult across numerous studies. Second, numerous researchers lacked in explaining the choice of independent variable as they have carried out the research in the absence of a theoretical framework. Since the presence of a theoretical context increases understanding of the important variables that affect a scenario, hence this paucity creates the gap in the tax literature and did not provide any significant solution on the key determinants of income tax compliance. Third, collective investigation of the literature displayed that the three key determinants of income tax compliance that can be considered as good predictors were normative, attitudinal and subjective control. Further, the outcomes of the study recommend few policy actions that need to be addressed in future research. First, it is suggested that the future research focuses on to develop theory centered number of appropriate determining factor of tax compliance which can measure precise forecasts. Second, it is recommended to tax policy makers todiscontinue from limited practice of the orthodox forced approaches (subjective control variables) usually used to coerce tax compliance. Further, the policy makers are advised to use a controlled method in implementation of tax that can encourage intended compliance through variation of norms and attitudes.

Title: CAMEROON PROFESSORS PUBLISH: A REPLY TO NWANATIFUNWACO�S �CAMEROON: PROFESSORS WITHOUT PUBLICATIONS� 
Abstract: This paper is a rebuttal to NwanatifuNwaco�s blog post captioned �Cameroon: Professors without Publications�� (at https://chiefnwaco.wordpress.com/2013/04/09/professors-without-publications/, retrieved on 29 November 2014). Nwaco purports that Cameroon academics�university intellectuals (researchers, scholars or professors and research students)�largely do not produce and/or publish scholarly works such as research papers, book chapters, and monographs. His claims are principally based on the unavailability of titles and abstracts by Cameroon professors in his Google searches. He also alludes�rightly and/or wrongly�to the partisan politics that compels many an intellectual in Cameroon to focus on political assignments at the expense of research and to strive at publishing regime-tilted works. In spite of the fact that his assertions acknowledge some unnamed exceptions, we find them largely faulty and unfounded. Consequently, this paper embarks on a mission of refuting his allegations and proving that Cameroonian university intellectuals�both learned professors and their mentees (like the case of this present author)�do publish scholarly works in national and international channels. With evidence from the CVs of some Cameroon professors randomly culled from Internet sources, with reference to some national journals and annals managed in Cameroon, with reference to some randomly selected papers by Cameroonian intellectuals obtained via Google Scholar, Academia.edu, Researchgate and Selectedworks, and with citations from diverse academic publications, the present paper attempts to somewhat neutralise Nwaco�s assertions. In order to balance our arguments, the paper also identifies weaknesses in academic publishing in Cameroon and proposes strategies to remedy the situation.

Title:SCHOOL BASED PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT TO STUDENT TEACHERS IN PREPARATION OF TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DOCUMENTS
Abstract: Teaching practice is an important part of teacher training. Preparation of teacher professional documents is one among the major activities student teachers do during the teaching practice. This paper discusses the preparation of scheme of work and lesson plan as teacher professional documents and the professional support provided by experienced teachers in the teaching practice centers. The study was done in the southern highland of Tanzania during the 2015/2016 teaching practice period of the University of Dar es Salaam. Document analysis and interviews were done and qualitative data was collected. Content analysis was done and some descriptive statistics were used to describe the findings. Finds show that student teachers� scheme of work and lesson plan had some variation based on the perception they had from the university and that little is learnt from the teaching practice stations. Some of the entries in the documents were wrongly constructed and in most cases differed among student teachers working in the same teaching practice station. It was also found out that little collaboration and assistance was offered from regular school teachers in the preparation of the documents. The paper suggests among others that schools should prepare their experienced teachers to actively be involved in the mentorship process.
Key words:teaching practice, teacher professional documents, lesson plan, scheme of work.

Title:CREATING THE CREATORS
Abstract: The teacher who provides a learning environment where a child can learn by himself/herself and doesn�t imposes his /her own theories, philosophies or ideas on the child is a real teacher. Our present educational system is focusing on teaching rather than creating. The focus needs to be shifted from teaching to learning, from teacher to child, from reproducing to creating. We are preparing a work force which can react, to some measure, to the external situations but is totally unaware of its inner self, its potential, the miracle it carries in itself. We have to shift our focus from the standardized model of education where certain values and concepts are taken for granted and we blindly keep on following and transferring them through generations. We the teachers, as a part of this standardized system, give very little opportunities to our students to imagine. Education has to be more Personal. We cannot follow the age old system because they were the best but we have to change and let our students choose what is the best and what will be the best for them. The present paper focuses on the loop holes of present system of education that blocks and systematically destroys the creative capacity of children and an attempt has also been made in the paper to present some ideas which can be implied to help foster creativity.
Key words:Learning Environment, Standardized System, Creative Capacity

Title:MANIPURI NATA SANKIRTANA AS A MAHAYAJNA
Abstract: The NataSankirtana style of singing which was introduced during the reign of RajarshiBhagyachandra (1763-1798 A.D.). The great masters and scholars of that period composed and sang the padavali strictly after the Bhagavata tradition and other major Vaishnavite text and based the composition also on the traditional Ragas and Raginis of classical music tradition. Modern research has discovered a lot of regional overtones in the architecture of the particular Ragas and Raginis. The Manipuris call the NataSankirtana singing their own and it is clearly a form of collective prayer, a Mahayajna as they call it, lasting for about 5 hours at a stretch with a lot of rituals, movements and rhythmic pattern, strictly after the vaishnavite faith. NataSankirtana is a composite version of music, dance and tala; a Sangeet in the true sense of the term. It is also DrishyaKavya, a poem made visible. NataSankirtana to the followers of GoudiyaVaishnavism is a form of worship. It is considered as a Mahayajna (complete sacrifice). The Vaishnav architects trace its origin to the aesthetics and philosophy of ShrimadBhagavata. In ShrimadBhagavata the only merit in Kaliyuga is HariSankirtana (chanting the name of the lord) and through Sankirtana a person can reach his ends and attain moksha. A person in Satyayuga attains mukti through dhyan, in Treta Yuga by yajnas and Dwarpur Yuga through puja and in Kali yuga through HariSankirtana. The above dhyan, Puja, Yajana, etc., are all combined or merged in the form of HariSankirtana in Kali Yuga to attain salvation. Sri Chaitanya or Lord Gouranga preached the value and importance of Sankirtana to liberate the mortal and attain moksha.In this manner, for Meitei Vaishnavites living in the society today, NataSankirtanaMahayajna was become an indispensable event in the lives of the people since time immemorial. In short, NataSankirtana is the only highest karma for the Meitei society. This paper attempts to discuss the NataSankirtana as a Mahayajna in Manipuri society.

Title:E-COMMERCE AND RURAL HANDICRAFT ARTISANS
Abstract: India is a country of great cultural heritage and India�s cultural diversity provides plenty of remarkable art and craft products. Handicraft industry uses conventional manual methods instead of advanced technology for making various items. It is an unorganized, decentralized, labour intensive cottage industry. Though handicraft industry employs millions of artisans, It is still miniscule with respect to the global industry. This scenario is changing with the advent of E-commerce initiatives at government as well as at private or individual level. In this paper, an attempt has been made to highlight the role of E-commerce in the development of rural artisans in India by illustrating some efforts of Government and Non-Government agencies, Groups and Individuals in uplifting the socio-economic standard of the rural artisans through E-commerce. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats/Challenges faced or to be faced by rural handicraft artisans adopting E-commerce have also been analyzed in this paper.

Title: EVALUATION IN 21ST CENTURY: A HOLISTIC APPROACH
Abstract: Evaluation is widely acknowledged as a powerful means of improving the quality of education. It is the means by which development of an individual, course can be monitored to see it what it claims to be and if it achieves the desired outcomes. In order to take the evaluation in a desirable manner, the purpose of the teaching learning activities and their desired outcomes must be specified. The present examination system in India is predominately focusing only on the intellectual skills, the psycho motor and affective domains of holistic learning have not received their due importance. But the aim of education is developing the �whole child�. Holistic education demands development of all aspects of individual�s personality including cognitive, affective and psycho motor domains. In the present scenario it is very stressful for the parents, teachers and students only to be working on cognitive aspects without understanding the processes of learning. In order to bring about the improvement in the quality of the education and the holistic development of the child who is tomorrow�s global citizen, evaluation process should focus adequately on both scholastics and non-scholastic areas of development. In this paper, the focus is essentially on evaluation of students� performance and to some extend of the system at  large. Evaluation, a way of enabling everyone involved in it to develop and need to be conceived holistically, as a whole framework, building on the interdependence of its parts in order to generate complementarities, avoid duplication, and prevent inconsistency of objectives.

Title:WOMEN ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND EDUCATION
Abstract: Entrepreneurship refers to an individual�s ability to turn ideas into action. Entrepreneurship is a combination of mindsets, knowledge and skills. At higher education level, the primary purpose of entrepreneurship education should be to develop entrepreneurial capacities and mindsets. Crossing boundaries between disciplines, and multidisciplinary collaboration, are essential elements in building enterprising abilities. In terms of entrepreneurship, this socially formed world favors the masculine ideal over the feminine, and while the impact is powerful, most people are not aware of its creation, refreshment, and/or use. Social construction is not a deterministic process; it is perpetuated by institutions and institutional forces but what is socially constructed can change There is a need for greater flexibility in course design. Work placements, alternation between full- and part-time study, organization of intensive courses, and accreditation of informal and non-formal learning all have a role to play.

Title:SELF-HELP GROUPS AND THE ROLE OF WOMEN IN HOUSEHOLD DECISION MAKING: CASES OF SC, OBC AND MIXED GROUPS�
Abstract: The paper attempts to understand the role of women of self help groups (SHGS) of OBC, SC and Mixed membership in the household decision -making before joining the groups and ten years of after joining the groups. A sample of six self help groups belonging to OBC, SC and mixed group membership has been selected from three villages of Allahabad district of Uttar Pradesh. Data are collected through focus group discussions and interviews of members of SHGs. Analysis of data reveals that the role of women in making decisions like schooling of children specially for girls, family planning, casting votes, and decisions on moving alone to places located far from the village has increased after joining the group. It was also found that the SC women are participating more in household decision making in comparison to other groups. A trend of taking consensus decision making is emerging and domination of men in such decisions is slowly declining.

Title:EXERCISE- A DRUG FREE WAY TO REDUCE THE CHANCE OF HEART DISEASE
Abstract: Heart disease is the non-communicable disease which is the leading cause of death globally and in India also.. The causes and prevention of heart disease have been studied for years, and new information is emerging. The coronary artery diseases can play a crucial medico- legal role to decide the cause of sudden death whether natural or unnatural. There are certain occasions, when a person dies on the operating table or soon after surgery, and a coronary attack is probably the cause of death. A final coronary episode may sometimes be associated with an operative procedure supposedly due to hypertensive state. These conditions indicate that intervention of Forensic Pathologist is significant to decide the actual cause of death apart from injury or disease of vital organs. For the last several decades, saturated fat and cholesterol have been thought to be major contributors to coronary artery disease. However, recent studies are indicating that it may not be wise to strictly limit the intake of dietary saturated fatty acids or replace them with polyunsaturated fatty acids when taking other health conditions into consideration. Depending on a person�s genetics, diet may or may not be an important factor in preventing heart disease. Exercise is also the drug free way in preventing heart disease. When considering human development, humans still have a lot to learn about the human body and the interaction of diet, the environment, and genetics.

Title:RETENTION OF ACADEMIA AT MAKERERE UNIVERSITY: A TIME-TO-EVENT ANALYSIS
Abstract: The study investigated the dynamics of the service duration of academic staff at Makerere University basing on the administrative records of 1,486 academic staff at the university, recruited in the period 1987�2012. The period from the date of first appointment to the date of exit was adopted as a measure of the service duration at the university. A time-to-event approach in a Cox model was adopted in the analysis. The results, show that the median duration among academic staff who had left the university service by December 2012 (N = 213) is 4.56 years (range, 0.22�23.32). This figure points to a low retention of academia at the university. The rate of exit from the university service reduces significantly with higher academic ranks and increase in age at the time of recruitment. The findings point to a need to scale-up measures in retaining staff particularly those at lower levels.

Title:EMPOWERMENT OF ELECTED WOMEN REPRESENTATIVES IN PANCHAYATI RAJ INSTITUTIONS: A CASE STUDY OF MORADABAD DIVISION
Abstract: In India, Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) assume great prominence from the point of view ofdemocratization in the administrative system. Article 40 of the Indian constitution lays down thatthe state shall take necessary steps to unify village panchayats and bestow them with such powersand authority as may be necessary to enable them to function as units of self-government. Thearchitects of PRIs visualized that not only men but also women shouldparticipate in the village panchayat. In Indian society women traditionally considered as a weaker section. The status of women has been subservient to man subjugated, exploited and oppressed. She has been discriminated form womb to tomb. They have been constantly denied of the right to expresses their views at various levels. After independence, it was felt this negligence of women power had been one of the most essentialcauses of India�s backwardness. The 73rd and 74th amendment act is an important eventin the Indian history in which 33 percent reservation has been given to women at thePanchayat and Municipal level. The reservation for women in panchayats have provided apossibility for thrashing traditional gender, caste and religious biasness but it is a longand difficult process for bringing about societal change. The question remains: whether theconstitutional amendment will be able to contribute to women�s empowerment or will theexisting patriarchal structures continue to dominate in the society. This paper is an attemptto understand the instance of elected women in panchayat level representation and how far thesetypes of representation lead the way to their development and empowerment.

Title:STREET CHILDREN OF TARLAC CITY: TOWARDS A PROPOSED ACTION PLAN
Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the status of street children in Tarlac City. The result of the study would serve as basis for the proposal of an action plan. Descriptive method of research was utilized in the conduct of the study. Interview and questionnaire were the main sources of data.Purposive sampling was used to identify the respondents of the study. The subjects of the study were the street children working and living in the City of Tarlac. Forty (40) street children were interviewed in the study. The finding of the study revealed that most of the street children often engaged in begging for money or food in the market, the church, and fast food chains. Unlike the identified beggars, street children involved in selling goods were not engaged in any other activity on the streets. Scavenging, being a barker, a vulcanizer helper, and a jeepney terminal street sweeper were the other engagements of the street children. The most frequent reasons why children engaged themselves into street life were to earn money to buy food, to help their parents earn money, and to earn money to finance their education. Other reasons why children engaged themselves in the street were to buy things that they needed, to buy medicine and to buy things of their own choice.

Title:How Gainfully Can A Pharmaceutical Company Borrow In the 21st Century?
Abstract: When a company involves debt in its capital structure, it has to bear fixed charges and this has deep impact on the company�s profitability and liquidity. This paper focuses on there lationship between leverage and profit ability in West Coast Pharma Limited. The financial statements of West Coast Pharma Limited have been collected over a period of 7years (from 2009-10 through 2015-16). Various tools and techniques employed reveal that the degree of operating leverage is found to have statistically significant positive correlation with the ROI as also that the degree of financial leverage is positively correlated with the ROI. It is suggested that West Coast Pharma Limited should revamp its capital structure such that it should include the optimum blend of equity and borrowed funds so that it has positive impact on Return on Investment. Further more, degree of combined leverage is positively correlated with ROI of West Coast Pharma. It follows that West Coast Pharma has not significantly resorted to the use of debtfunds which also deprives it of the benefits of financial leverage.

Title:BARANGAY JUSTICE SYSTEM IN BARANGAY MATATALAIB, TARLAC CITY: AN EVALUATION
Abstract:The Barangay Justice System or Katarungang Pambarangay is a system for the amicable settlement of disputes at the barangay level. It aims to promote speedy administration of justice and to relieve the courts of conciliable criminal and civil cases. The Barangay Justice System is neither a court of justice nor a judicial tribunal where cases are heard and decided before a judge or a jury. It is an administrative body at the barangay level where community members may reconcile their differences without resorting to judicial process, thus avoiding protracted and expensive settlement of disputes before the court. This study focused on the Barangay Justice System of Matatalaib which included 989 filed cases. The respondents of the study included the punong barangay (village captain), barangay secretary and twenty (20) members of the lupongtagapamayapa (community conciliators). Documentary analysis and interview were the primary sources of the data. Based on the gathered data, majority of the filed cases were resolved with the help of the barangay justice system. Robbery/theft and trespassing were the cases which were commonly not resolved due to the lack of: evidence and the identities of who committed the offenses.

Thereby, many universities and colleges have been establishing at different locations of different states. But, by the simply establishments of institutions of higher education, the dream of nation could not be fulfilled without the consideration of problems of woman teachers working at colleges. To uplift the women, there is a need to have more women teachers in higher education, as a woman can alone understand another woman�s feelings and emotions. In Manipur also, still there is a need to strike a balance to create a prosperous country. Even though there is an increased in female teachers, there is few lady teacher in rural areas. Lack of security, material amenities like hostel, quarters, transport, medical facilities and lack of support from the families. In short they are facing problems related to social, political, economic and service matter etc. These problems are not only concerned with woman teachers in rural but urban as well. If these problems are not taken seriously and examined, the education towards the young aspirant, enthusiastic students will naturally decline. This paper tries to find out, not only the problems faced by the woman teachers working at govt. colleges within urban area of Imphal, but, some of remedial measures to be taken in order to improve Higher Education in Manipur under vision of the quality higher education.

Title:COOPERATIVE LEARNING: PEDAGOGY IN HIGHER EDUCATION
Abstract:Without disproving the importance of traditional teacher-led discussions in class, an increasing number of teachers are acknowledging the worth of allocating group work to their students. It is a false notion that cooperative learning is a replacement for the methods we use at present for teaching-learning rather it can be used to augment or enhance learning. This paper discusses the key elements of cooperative learning: positive interdependence, individual accountability, promotive or face to face interaction, interpersonal and small group skills and group processing. The research validating effectiveness of this method is summarized. The paper outlines the methods for implementing cooperative learning in higher education for successful learning to take place. The common hurdles in the implementation of cooperative learning and how to overcome them are discussed in the present study. The present study may lead to the enhancement of practices and approaches.

Title:PERSONALITY CORRELATES OF SELF ACTUALISING VALUES
Abstract:Human life will never be understood unless its highest aspirations are taken into account. Growth, Self actualization, the quest for identity and autonomy, challenging the limits of intellectual potential and the yearning for excellence are a universal human tendency. Endowed with an innate striving to exercise and elaborate their interests, individuals naturally tend to seek challenges, to discover new directions and perspectives and to actively internalise and transform personality characteristics. The personality temperament acts as a useful theoretical construct for understanding inherent potentialities of actualization (J. Guthrie Ford, 1991). This study was designed to examine the link between Personality and Self actualizing values: Time competence (Tc), Inner directedness (I) and Self actualizing values (SAV). A total of 247 (114 males and 133 females) participants between the age range (45-60) years were involved from different areas of Punjab, Chandigarh and Delhi. The Personal orientation inventory (Everett L. Shostrom, 1964) was used to assess the Self actualizing values and NEO-PI-R (Costa and McCrae, 1992) was used for measuring personality traits. Results from the study revealed a distinct pattern of association between these variables.
Key Words: Self actualizing values, SAV, Tc, I, Personality traits.

The banking activities worldwide are undergoing rapid diversification. Technological changes have become the very essence of the banking sector and the Indian banking sector is also prone to these changes. In order to maintain their status in the competitive environment, banks have to concentrate in developing their human resources.

Title:TEACHING ENGLISH TO SPEAKERS OF OTHER LANGUAGES: METHODOLOGY AND STRATEGY
Abstract:Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages � a term that is used to distinguish English language teaching as a professional activity that requires specialized training. Also refers to the teacher examinations developed by Trinity College London. Also, it is a US-based international association of teachers of English as a second or foreign language. There are regional affiliates and many countries have their own affiliated associations. TESOL was founded by Dr. James in Alatis in 1966 he was the first secretary now referred as the Director of TESOL, while the President of TESOL who was professor Harold B Allen. These two set forth an Executive Committee which is now known as TESOL International Association. It was evolved due to the need which arose on the survey of the teaching of English to Non-English speakers in the United States. The report was commissioned by the office ofeducation in 1964. But before this could be considered as a social and cultural need in 60�s, already the need was realized after the world war II in 1940�s as a large number of foreign students had already  arrived to matriculate in the US universities. These students were all adult learners, therefore already teachers were drawn from English departments and there was special material developed under the name TEFL Teaching English as a Foreign Language. At this time there also emerged another significant group of English language and this is what gave a rise to TESOL in a different manner which I shall talk about in detail. The name itself TESOL which means teaching English to speakers of other language is such an important subject, as English has become the global language. It allows you to meet people of different countries without hesitation. A person develops himself practically and professionally. It allows the person to apply theoretical prospective to practical situations. It encourages educators to re-evaluate existing approaches in this digital technological world and become an integral part. Over the years, teachers of English Language have adopted, adapted, invented and developed a bewildering variety terms which describe the activities in which they engage and the beliefs which they hold. As such it doesn�t have any specific rules but yet I shall specifically focus on its important language-teaching system, as it has a different approach, method and technique.

Title:ROLE OF INNOVATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COUNTRY
Abstract:According to Roberts, Innovation = invention + exploitation. Since Independence India has improved its relative productivity performance, but there remains a significant gap in market sector productivity between Developed and developing countries. Much of the gap between them is due to lower levels of capital intensity and skills. .Still India is legging much from the skill development of Point of view .However, even taking these into account, there remains a significant gap. This reflects not just a weakness in high tech areas but an inability to incorporate best practice techniques and methods in technological Innovation. This includes comparatively low and falling levels of R&D and patenting as well as a distinct lag in the diffusion of innovations relative to other countries. This paper illustrates why technological innovation is considered as a major factor or driving force in economic growth and focuses on some of the most distinctive features of innovation in the highly industrialized economies of this era. In particular, the paper attempts to examine a primary single feature, �uncertainty� that dominates the search for new technologies by drawing several cases on the developed countries experience. It also touches on the impact of technological innovation in the developing countries and how it is transforming their business.

Title:DIASPORA AS A FOREIGN POLICY TOOL: A CASE STUDY OF INDIAN DIASPORA IN SOUTHEAST ASIA
Abstract:Human resource mobility is an essential feature of today�s globalized world where integrated world markets, networks and technologies are all contributing to the increasing movement of labor, students, professionals, and families. Governments on both sides of the migration chain increasingly recognize the value of the diaspora�s voluntary engagement with their countries of origin and are seeking ways to optimize this engagement. The question facing policy-makers is not so much whether the diaspora can benefit their countries of origin, but what kind of government policies and programmes� can foster and promote these relationships. Diasporas are not only key drivers in development efforts but also in strengthening bilateral relations between host and home nations. In the contemporary globalized world, the diasporas have emerged as a powerful factor in developing relations between the nation-states. Notably, the Indian diaspora has acted as a catalyst in strengthening bilateral relations between India and the host nations. The India-US Civil Nuclear Deal is a case in point, as Indian diasporas in the United States successfully lobbied for clinching of the nuclear deal. Indian Diaspora is one of the largest in the world and it has considerable soft power credentials for the Indian Foreign Policy effecting trade and business relations. The South East Asian region has a plethora of economic avenues for investors from across the globe. It has become vital for India to build a favorable rapport with this region. The Indian presence in Southeast Asia is set deep down in history. There are innumerable accounts of traders, preachers and adventures who ventured into the high seas and influenced the eastern part of the world, to the extent of �Indianising� it socially, culturally, religiously, and in many other ways. However, it was during the colonial period that government sponsored migrations in the form of labourers, officials and service providers started, which later resulted into permanent settlements. The diasporic consciousness emerged as the settlers became integral part of economic and political lives of receiving societies, while continuing to be connected with the motherland. More recently, the migration of skilled and highly skilled professionals and entrepreneurs and India�s opening towards Southeast Asia has given a new face and identity to the Indian communities in the region. Hence, this paper is an attempt to analyze the impact of India�s diaspora policy with regard to Indian diaspora in Southeast Asia. It seeks to examine how effectively India can utilize its diaspora as a foreign policy tool to exert its influence in the South East Asia.�

Title:LANGUAGE: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF CHINA AND INDIA
Abstract:Under the influence of globalization, English is used more and more widely. The younger generation in China also attaches more and more importance to English, but its income is not ideal on the basis of high investment. India, our neighbour, has a great advantage in this respect. By comparing the current use of English in China and the current use of language in India, and combining with the new generation of young people's ways of communication, I hope I can get some inspiration in language learning.

Abstract:Each of us faces different people every day. It is especially important to communicate with others. Interpersonal relationships are necessary in life. Only when we are happy with others can we benefit our work, study or life. Then how should we get along with others before both parties are happy? I think we are all people with feelings and souls. As long as we treat others with sincerity, the other party will treat ourselves in the same way.  The relationship between people is the collision of two hearts. Treating everyone with heart, you will be happy to get along with others. Of course, you should also pay attention to skills when you get along with others.  First understand the other party's preferences, avoid the other people's hateful things, find the right way for two people to get along, follow some ways to get along, will definitely get good interpersonal relationships

Title:WOMEN EMPOWERMENT AND ENGLISH LITERATURE

Abstract:In academic literature, the word empowerment first came onto the scene with regards to civil rights.

For example, in 1983 the Women�s Studies international forum discussed empowerment of women in �Power and Empowerment.� From then until now, the literature has increasingly been focused on these issues. The key focus of the paper thus remains literature and empowerment.

This statement justifies that Nation Building does not means only commercial Development. Commerce has to be managed in such a way that its benefits encompass each and every citizen of the Nation the Mother India.

Broadly speaking, nations should be harmonized with the way commercial activity is managed to enhance the prosperity of its citizens and those who directly benefit by creating  jobs, beneficial things (man/material) and services. The organization and coordination of the activities of a business in order to achieve specific objectives is defined as the process of being managed or Harmonica of the Management. Management is often included as a factor of production along with machines, materials and money. (Drucker, Peter) According to the management Maestro/guru the basic task of management is marketing and innovation.

Title: PARENTAL ATTITUDE TOWARDS GIRL�S EDUCATION IN HILLY DISTRICT OF MANIPUR
Abstract:Status of girl�s education has been a positive impact on their outlook and helps them in the society. The world cannot exist without women. They have every right as men but the traditional society has been blinded by the false notion by considering women as beneath the men in all the sphere of life. As a result, it has become very important to remove this particular notion and assigned the women her rightful position i.e. on the same platform as men. This can only be achieved when girls are educated and they realized their true position. Therefore, education of girls have become very important. The other way of removing these atrocities is by erasing the traditional attitude of parents towards education of the girls into a favorable and supportive attitude. It has particularly important in hill districts since it has the lowest girls literacy rate. It is important for the parents to truly and honestly develop a favorable attitude towards the education of girls. In terms of literacy, Manipur (79.21%) is higher than All India (72.99%) average. Among the North Eastern States of India, Mizoram ranks first and Manipur fifth as per 2011 census. As recorded in 2011 census, Imphal West District ranked first among the districts of Manipur with 86.08 percent literates which are followed by Churachandpur District with 82.7 % and Chandel with 70.05% Dept of Education as of least literate district in Manipur. Thus, education is a powerful weapon we can use to change the world. As such necessary step can be taken up to further cause of education. The area of hilly districts in the whole of Manipur is the most backward in the area of women�s education.

Title: INDIA-CHINA RELATIONS: PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
Abstract:India and China are naturally a pair of sister countries. Their similarities and their association are great, numerous and intimate with every aspect and from every standard of observation and judgment. Looking over the geography and history of all the nations in the world, it is observed that there are no other two nations that can be compared to these two countries. The two countries, both situated in the bright and glorious continent of Asia; India to the south-west and China to the north-east, spread out lordly in different direction but yet are linked up at the main line, just like the two wheels of the carriage or the wings of a bird, and the two hands and feet or the two ears and eyes of a person. More than 2,000 years ago, the southern silk road from Yunnan became the link of trade, culture exchanges between China and South and Southeast Asian countries. Yunnan has historically shared a border with India for a long time. The state in the western part of Yunnan was connected with the ancient state of India which still adds to the better relationship of the two countries. With this background the article stress on the similarity of the two countries and highlights the avenues yet to be achieved by the counties.

Title: BLOCKCHAIN: A FOUNDATIONAL CHANGE IN FINANCIAL RECORDS
Abstract:Blockchain is a foundational change in how financial records are created, kept, and updated. Rather than having one single owner, blockchain records are distributed among all their users. The genius of the blockchain approach is in using a complex system of consensus and verification to ensure that, even with no central owner and with time lags between all the users, nevertheless a single, agreed-upon version of the truth propagates to all users as part of a permanent record. This creates a kind of �universal entry bookkeeping�, where a single entry is shared identically and permanently with every participant. This paper describes the technology and its likely impact on business, and in particular on the accounting profession.

Title: ADOPTION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF IFRS: AN IMPERATIVE NEED FOR SMEs IN INDIA
Abstract:Small  and  medium  enterprises  (SMEs)  have  made  noteworthy  participation  towards  industrial growth,  manufacturing,  export  and  employment  creation  particularly  at  the  low-skill  level.  SMEs Employing close to 40% of India's workforce and contributing 45% to India's manufacturing output Although they employ 40% of India's workforce, they only contribute 17% to the Indian GDP., SMEs play  a  critical  role  in  generating millions of jobs, especially at the low-skill level. The country's 1.3 million SMEs account for 40%  of  India's  total  exports.  The  movement  to  IFRS  being  the  global benchmark in accounting standards in gaining momentum with about 100 countries already moving to IFRS as the standard (or at least have converged very close to IFRS). In EU, IFRS is mandatory since 2005. In 2007 China adopted IFRS within 1 year of announcing the changeover. The  International  Financial  Reporting  Standards  (IFRS)  for  Small  and  Medium  Scale  enterprises  is  a  adaptation  and generalization  of  full  international  financing  reporting  standards  aimed  at  meeting  the  needs  of  Small  and  Medium  scale enterprises  financing reporting and to simplify the financial reporting. The adoption of IFRS across the country is taking place rapidly to bring about accounting quality improvement through a single set of standards for financial reporting. The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) was issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). All major economies have established timelines to converge with, or adopt the IFRS. The adoption of the International Financial Reporting Standards surely will ensure uniformity, comparability and reliability of the financial reporting across the world. The intent of the study is to investigate features of adoption of IFRS and to address issue and challenges while adopting IFRS for small and medium scale enterprises in India and the context of IFRS in Indian Scenario. The paper also identifies benefits for small and medium scale enterprises through adoption of IFRS and to make comparison between India GAAP framework with IFRS for small and medium enterprises.

Title: CONTRIBUTION OF KAMALA DAS TO INDIAN ENGLISH POETRY: A STUDY
Abstract: Kamala Das begins by self-assertion: I am what I am. The poetess claims that she is not interested in politics, but claims to know the names of all in power beginning from Nehru. She seems to state that these are involuntarily ingrained in her. By challenging us that she can repeat these as easily as days of the week, or the names of months she echoes that they these politicians were caught in a repetitive cycle of time, irrespective of any individuality. They did not define time; rather time defined them. The paper focuses on her contribution to Indian English poetry.

Title: NATIONAL SERVICE SCHEME AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUTH TO CONTRIBUTE IN NATION BUILDING
Abstract:The overall aim of National Service Scheme as envisaged earlier, is to give an extension dimension to the higher education system and orient the student youth to community service while they are studying in educational institutions. The concept of making national service a part of university education took about 20 years to evolve from the state of an idea into that of a scheme. The early seeds of it were sown by Dr. S. Radhakrishnan in his Report (1948). National Service Scheme (NSS) was introduced in 1969 with the primary objective of developing the personality and character of the student youth through voluntary community service. Initially it was launched in 37 Universities involving about 40,000 volunteers. However, with the passage of time and as a Pan Indian programme, the number of educational institutions covered under NSS has been increasing year after year. The importance of NSS was underlined in an Evaluation Study conducted through Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS). In their Study Report, TISS concluded that�NSS has been a well-intentioned and an ideologically motivated scheme of the Government of India and that NSS is one of the greatest experiments in the field of youth work in the world. This paper also highlights the constraints faced by the NSS, and students in the system and also suggests measure to overcome in order to utilize future generation in positive direction.

Title: HUMAN RIGHTS: NEED FOR POLITICAL THEORIES
Abstract: Human and rights are the two words conjointly makes a concern about the fate of human civilisation because we always breaks the basic rights of mankind in the name of conventional legislations framed by the statecraft.

Title: WAY OF LIVING LIFE: A CONCEPTUAL STUDY 
Abstract: The need for a more holistic approach to management is being widely recognized but there are very few models and approaches which seek to include a holistic approach within the existing management education framework. The selection process for B-schools entrants ensures that the selected few are among the best in a narrow band of criteria believed to be essential for managers and corporate leaders of tomorrow. However, the reality of industry needs would suggest that future leaders need skills beyond those bracketed by the stringent selection process laid down by schools. One way to remedy this is to provide diverse opportunities for learning leadership and entrepreneurial skills based on Dr Howard Gardener�s multiple intelligences. It is argued that the use of multiple intelligences in management education would inculcate core competencies and capabilities required by management students when they start practicing management in real life scenarios. The paper further provides methods including rationale, content development and delivery mechanism to teach these intelligences within the academic framework of management schools.

Title: FEATURES OF INVESTMENT IN MUTUAL FUND: IN CASE OF RUSSIA
Abstract: The article discusses the features of mutual funds, examining Russia's experience using an example. The emergence of investment funds in Russia was predetermined by the course of economic reforms taking place during the transition of the Russian economy to market relations. The need for the formation of various forms of ownership, the presence of which is characteristic of market conditions of management, was the prerequisite for the emergence of mechanisms to facilitate the implementation of this process. One of these mechanisms has become an investment fund. The peculiarity of this institute is the purposeful activity of servicing a small investor who invests his money in securities. Widespread in the world and high rates of development of investment funds largely explain the pattern of their emergence in Russia, where the issue of creating such an institution to attract savings to a wide range of small and medium-sized investors, able to ensure high standards of management of attracted assets, has become obvious and highly relevant.

Title: WOMEN SITUATION AT WORKPLACE: A CASE STUDY OF BANGLADESH
Abstract: Women�s lives have changed tremendously in Bangladesh over the last 47 years, and in many ways have improved. The RMG industry has provided the first mass formal employment for women in Bangladesh, and growth in the sector is expected to continue to expand employment opportunities. Attitudes inevitably have changed as women working outside the home have gone from being an anomaly to a core part of the Bangladesh economy. Nonetheless, female labor force participation remains very low by international standards and while women�s education to higher secondary level and above is now widespread, well-educated women face frighteningly high unemployment rates, much higher than for men with comparable education. Providing full legal economic rights to women, and fully enforcing those rights, is a critical step: it provides a strong signal about the direction of the country and may help to make discrimination against women less socially acceptable. Changing laws is also a low-cost endeavor. Protection of women�s employment rights with respect to changes in family status is particularly important. Working women in Bangladesh are mainly being discriminated in payment, being sexually harassed at workplace and they also can not enjoy maternity facilities which they are entitled for by laws. The forms of discriminations and harassment should identify and should be eradicate from workplace to ensure a safe and discrimination free workplace, where they can contribute in the economy.

Title: DIGITAL PAYMENTS: INCREASING SIGNIFICANCE IN THE INDIAN CONTEXT
Abstract: Digitisation is having a significant impact in all walks of life, including the way monetary transactions take place, even in a cash-intensive society such as India. The present paper seeks to explore if digital payments have made significant progress in India and are now gaining pre-eminence as a mode of payment, by examining multiple sources of secondary data. It establishes that the Government has taken concrete, albeit controversial measures such as demonetization, as well as direct benefit transfers, designed and implemented payments infrastructure such as Immediate Payments Service (IMPS) and Unified Payments Interface (UPI). These and the proliferation of smart devices and better internet access have led to a large increase in digital payments. However, cash still seems to dominate the marketplace, though to a marginally lesser extent, and it will take a significant behavioural shift from the consumers to eventually enable digital payments to be the dominant mode of payments in India.

Title: TRANSITIONAL TREND IN HANDICRAFT PRACTICES & ITS IMPACT ON THE INCOME OF ARTISANS
Abstract: Indian economy mostly depends on agriculture. Besides agriculture, rural handicrafts provide good employment opportunities to a large number of rural populations at their doorsteps and increase their income considerably. Crafts of Gujarat enjoys a significant position in the domestic as well as international markets. The land of Surendranagar district is also very prosperous with regards to the artistic nature of community living here. Weaving, Patola making, Stone carving, Embroidery-Bead work, Pottery, etc. are the distinct handicrafts of this region. But due to one or another reasons, these crafts seem disappearing with passage of time. The sustainability of these handicraft artisans is in question in today�s fast developing age of industrialization and technological bombarding. Millions of handicraft artisans today depend on indigenous modes of production using traditional skills and techniques to earn livelihood.

Title: NETWORK ADVANTAGES AMONG ZOROASTRIAN SMALL SCALE ENTREPRENEUR IN MODERN INDIA
Abstract: During the colonial times, Zoroastrians had taken full advantage of the British patronage and had shown high degrees of anglicization and leveraged competitive advantage of being in a �Zoroastrian Network� .They were quick to adapt themselves to the changing political circumstances and had collaborated with the British. Today, however, the Zoroastrians have lost their entrepreneurial drive and are living off their past glory. The rise of Zoroastrian enterprises during the British rule and the role of Zoroastrian entrepreneurs in the development of India has been studied intensely. However, not much research has been done about entrepreneurship in Zoroastrians post-independence and in the 21st century. The purpose of this study is to examine the opportunities or challenges of being a Zoroastrian entrepreneur in India. The Zoroastrians had an entrepreneurial orientation and so, they explored local areas looking for opportunities. They created employment opportunities for the locals, leading to a co-evolutionary growth. Thus, a positive ecosystem was created, in which the Zoroastrians were the central actors. However, in modern times, firms are adopting the Indian identity and centrality is no longer valid, because of which, Zoroastrian entrepreneurs are losing their network advantage.This study also sheds light on how community media and the Internet are extensively being used to bring regain the network advantage that the Zoroastrians have lost.

Title: PERCEPTION OF LIFELONG LEARNING AND PROFESSIONALDEVELOPMENT AMONG THE PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS OF MUMBAI REGION
Abstract:"Everyone should have access to opportunities to learn and the Trust is committed to providing an environment where this can take place. Learning is, however not something that can be �done� to someone. It is a participative process and the Trust aspire to create an environment where people want to learn with us and from us. It is not just our staff but service users, carers and partners who all have a role to play inlearning and in teaching. Learning is not just about sitting in a classroom and being talked to. Learning is about participation and variety, appealing to all learning styles and all abilities.Most people associate learning with formal education at school, college, university etc. We are
all told, from an early age, that we should �get a good education�.Generally speaking it is true that a formal education and the resulting qualifications are important. Education may maximize our potential to find better, more satisfying jobs, earn more and, perhaps, become more successful in our chosen career.However, �schooling� is only one type of learning. There are many other opportunities to further your knowledge and develop the skills you need throughout life."

Title:ROLE OF NAGA WOMEN INDICATING IMPENDING VIOLENCE
Abstract:"Role assigned to a person indicates his/her status. Naga women�s roles, especially in a conflict ridden situation, during the pre-British, British and post-British period are
analysed in this article. This study describes the role taken by the Naga women for bringing peace only after the peace and tranquillity of the society was disturbed. But,
the United Nations Security Council Resolution 13252 (UNSCR, 2000) emphasizes the pivotal role the women should play in not only conflict management and conflict
resolution but in social, economical and political aspects too. Lack of women�s participation is a threat to future peace and tranquillity in addition to growth and
development. Long-term political exclusion of women, economic discriminations, discrepancies between men and women and women�s educational levels or place in
the work place give warning of the impending conflict in the near future (Schemeidl et al. 2002) . In the light of the above hypothesis, the article analyses the roles assigned
to Naga women, with the assumption that the above hypothesis is true. Therefore, it is a descriptive study based on the reflection, compare that with the present and the
identified gaps in the light of the aforementioned hypothesis for creating greater awareness among the mass. It concludes stating that though the Naga women are at
par with the contemporary women in many respects, till there are roles yet to be played by them that would bring their society more peaceful and prosperous."

In such a scenario, social enterprises are quite well suited and well equipped to usher innovations in public services by their dense engagement with the community and viable business models.This effective combination creates new services with the hitherto neglected community at the helm and gives rise to total innovations in public services"

Title:ROLE OF INSURANCE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURE IN INDIA
Abstract:"Indian agricultural sector still depended mostly on monsoons. The erratic and uneven distribution of monsoon rains continued unpredictability and hence farmers exposure to risk and uncertainty. In this scenario of high risk and uncertainty of rain fed agriculture, allocating risk is an important aspect of decision making to farmers. About 70% population of our country depends on agriculture but Indian agriculture depends on monsoon. It leads to operating risk in cultivation of different crops. To cover
the risk which may occur in future there is need to some provision. Crop Insurance scheme is the only mechanism available to safeguard against production risk in agriculture. In this research paper I am trying to give focus on Agriculture Insurance scheme in India as well as Agriculture Insurance companies. With the passing of Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) Act 1999 Indian insurance sector opened to a healthy competition by entry of new private insurers into insurance business hitherto the area of public sector. Insurance penetration (premium as % of GDP) in India was merely 1.93% showing 0.54% and 1.39% in nonlife and life insurance sectors respectively, which is far below from the 16.54%, 13.35%, 11.28% & 11.17% of South Africa, South Korea, Japan & UK respectively (table 1). Being an agrarian economy, there are immense opportunities in agricultural/rural insurance in India. The new areas like weather insurance, rainfall insurance and cyclone insurance give scope even for new private insurers and reinsures to exploit the
opportunities in the niche areas."

Title: MINIMUM STANDARDS PRESCRIBED BY GOVERNING BODIES AND THE ASSOCIATED FLAWS WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO QUALITY EDUCATION
Abstract:"To add to the quality of higher education, there exists several autonomous bodies viz. UGC, NCTE, AICTE etc. Unfortunately, these days, these bodies have remained in lime light being dragged into newspaper and courts for several reasons. Along with these bodies came up the existence of NAAC and NBA and to add to it came up the NIRF. Noteworthy that the key positions of these autonomous governing bodies and even the universities which is responsible for escalating HEIs and its quality is influenced politically and thus their quality perspective and even its functioning remains questionable."

Title: RHETORIC VERSUS REALITY OF PRACTICES IN INDIAN  DISTANCE EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS
Abstract:Teaching is a profession and that requires the development of knowledge, competencies and skills. But, teaching at a distance is not the same as classroom teaching and this requires specialized professional development programmes. There are researches, experiences, practices and theories related to distance education and their successful application would enhance distance learning. But, there are mushrooming growth of distance education institutions in our country but whether they are powered with professional people. This study tried to analyse and describe the structure of the self-instructional materials developed by two renowned distance education institutions in our country and one of which was a dedicated or single mode Distance Education Institution (DEI) and another a dual mode DEI. This analysis was done with delimitation to only the structure of the contents at the course and block levels to know whether the DEIs were adhering to the principles related to self-instructional materials (SIM) construction. This enabled to come an inference that though trained man-power was available in both the DEIs, there found lapses in structuring the SIMs. Professional development programmes were initiated by the then Distance Education Council(DEC), but still they were found inadequate and all the DEIs in India would require constant professional update programmes, guidance, support and monitoring over the practices for the effective pursuit of distance education programmes.

Title: "EXPENDITURES OF INSTITUTIONAL DELIVERY FOR BPL HOUSEHOLDS BURDEN OF OUT OF POCKET (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) EXPENDITURES OF INSTITUTIONAL DELIVERY FOR BPL HOUSEHOLDS IN SELECTED VILLAGE OF VARANASI DISTRICT "
Abstract:"High rate of maternal mortality has become one of the most serious public health issues in India. Although the estimates shows decline in maternal since 1992 (437 per 10, 000 live births) to 201012 (178). Even Sample Registration System Reports highlight that Maternal Mortality rate (MMR) has reduced by the 6.15% as compared to previous survey 2014-2016 (https://www.jagranjosh.com/current-affairs/sample-registration-system-report-finds-decline-inmaternal- mortality-rate-in-india-1573456912-1), but the reduction rate is sluggish. The causality of slow decline of MMRs in India is multiple axes of inequalities- regional, caste and class. Evidence shows an association between MMR and these socio-economic inequalities. Therefore Government of India has launched programmes and schemes viz. conditional, unconditional and voucher based for population below poverty line. Though government has adopted these schemes as a tool for improving the access to health services and   decline of MMR still a large number of child births are home based with very low medical facilities available. Cost barrier, both direct and indirect is one of the main obstacles leading to low institutional delivery.The objective comprised to study the effectiveness of government (central and state) schemes financing institutional child birth for BPL households.This qualitative study included both secondary (government records, published articles, journals and micro level studies) and primary data. Primary data was collected through in-depth interview. It has been found in the study, though government gives incentives to poor sections for direct expenditures but indirect (tips, transportation cost, loss of wages etc.) expenditures are also largely accountable for inaccessibility to health services."

Title: BOUNDED RATIONALITY, MOTIVATION & PRIVATE INFORMATION AND ITS IMPLICATIONS ON CONTRACTS 
Abstract:This conceptualessay is to introduce management scholars to the topics of Bounded Rationality, as propounded by Simon (1957) with the initial emphasis of the topic being given to Motivation, in addition to Coordination the other central problem to any Economic Organization and Management. Often these terms are used in scholarly articles but there are subtle differences between the economic and behavioural literature parlances, definition and understanding. These definitions as described in economics with their understanding are very important to understand contracts, the nature of contracts and underlying assumptions made.  Here, influential articles from prominent economics� articleare gleaned; the terms� rationale and understanding and important aspects are documented to serve as a primer for scholars.The article further elucidates the importance and flaws of Contracts:  which are prima facie agreements made by two or more people which are voluntary in nature and accepted by both the parties entering into a contract when they both see their advantage, which on further decomposing will be seen to be mutually beneficial as well, however, under important caveats.

Title: PSYCHOSOCIAL CONSEQUENCES OF BEING STRANGERS IN A FAMILIAR LAND
Abstract:Internal migration has resulted in a mass population of 453.6 million according to 2011 as per the Census of India. Migrants are not only imperative but also but also invisible key actors of socially dynamic, culturally innovative and economically affluent societies. This paper aims to provide an overview of existing challenges associated with internal migration, specifically the psychosocial consequences of emigrants and their left behind families. Review of literature suggests that migration is linked up with a high risk for poor mental health because of alterations in the pattern and content of, exposure to new physical, psychosocial, social interactions/social support and economic/ employment environments, acculturation demands, housing problems, crime and discrimination. This paper also highlights certain suggestions as a holistic approach to meet the multiple challenges faced by emigrants. There is a high need to have in-depth understanding of the problems and pattern of mental health problems by formulating more effective intervention strategies such as pyramid intervention model in preventing the distress and disorders, moreover, developing the healthy psycho-social wellbeing of the migrants.

Title: AWAKENING WOMEN: REFLECTION OF TODAY & TOMORROW
Abstract:Education helps the women not only in gaining knowledge but also enables her to earn a living. An educated woman plays an important role in a family, dealing with both health care and financial support to the family. Higher education helps women to have a better understanding of social and political processes beyond the home in far-reaching social structure and makes her a wise citizen with effective social and political action. Higher education helps women to be mentally and emotionally stronger and to face challenges and overcome obstacles in life and to be a complete woman.The participation of women in decision making is not merely a reflection of their constitutional and democratic political right but will also contribute to the development of women as well as of the society. Decision-making attests to the empowerment of the various actors involved.At present, far too few women possess this attitude. Women teachers at all levels of education and in academic disciplines that are traditionally male dominated, such as the scientific and technological fields. Political empowerment of women, acquisition and equal exercise of power, and active and full participation, at higher level of decision making have come to figure not merely as the strategies for women�s advancement, but also as the goals for women�s movement, both nationally and internationally

In 2014, the United Nations General Assembly approved a resolution establishing 21 June as �International Day of Yoga� and even the logo was designed for the day. And then On December 1, 2016, yoga was listed by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage of humanity.In China, more and more people began to practice Yogaasanaand Pran?ayamasince 1980s, and then most of them began to explore the culture embodied by it. With the deeper understanding of the yoga, it is thought that yoga is a group of physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines which originated in ancient India.What�s more, in yoga culture research, some of the similar wisdom can be found in Chinese wisdom. In this paper, a comparison study was made to explore the wisdom in both India and China to help people in either country to realize self-improvement, to control the desires and at last to make the self- realization.

Title: EFFECT OF YOGA ON PSYCHOLOGICAL STATES, SLEEP AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE OF SCHOOL TEACHERS SUFFERING FROM TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS: A PILOT STUDY
Abstract:Teaching is one of the stressful professions. The presence of diabetes contributes to the further increase in their stress levels, andthis negatively affects their sleep quality and emotional states. Yoga is known to reduce stress and have a beneficial effect on healthy and diseased conditions. The objective of the study comprised to study the effect of yoga on stress, sleep quality, and emotional states of school teachers suffering from type 2 diabetes. The methodology involved 39 (all female) schoolteachers who have type 2 diabetes since minimum of 3.4�2.2 years, with age range 30 to 55years (44 � 6.6). Subjects with known cases of cardiac disease, psychiatric illness, recent surgery, pregnancy, were excluded from the study. All the subjects underwent one month of yoga intervention, one daily for five days a week. Fasting, postprandial blood glucose level, Perceived stress, emotional regulation and sleep quality were assessed before and at the end of the intervention. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 10. Paired sample t test was used to find the pre-post differences in all variables. Paired sample t test showed significant reduction in perceived stress (p< 0.001, -37.89%), Fasting Blood Sugar (p< 0.001, -24.45%), Postprandial Blood Sugar (p< 0.001, -26.53%) along with a significant improvement in sleep quality (p< 0.001, -50.58%). Out of 39 subjects, 21 (54%) were having perceived stress score more than 13 suggesting above-average stress level. At the end of the study, this was reduced to 9 (23%). Also, it is observed that out of 39 subjects, 13 (33%) were having a perceived stress score of more than 20, suggesting a high-stress level. At the end of the study, * this was reduced to 1 (2%). And we found out 39 subjects, 10 (26%) were having global PSQI score more than 10 indicating bad sleepers. At the end of the study, this was reduced to 2 (5%). Also found that out 39 subjects, 18 (46%) were having global PSQI scores more than 5 indicating poor sleepers. At the end of the study, this was reduced to 4 (10%).One month of yoga intervention may help in improving emotional regulation and sleep quality by reducing perceived stress level in female teachers suffering from type 2 diabetes. However, further randomized controlled studies need to be performed to confirm the findings of the present study.

Patients with Permanent Vegetative State (PVS) and no hope of improvement cannot make decisions about treatment to be given to them. It is ultimately for the Court to decide, as to what is in the best interest of the patient. Every human being desires to live and enjoy the life till he dies. But sometimes a human being wishes to end his life in the manner he chooses. To end one�s life in an unnatural way is a sign of abnormality. When a person ends his life by his own act we call it �suicide� but to end a person�s life by others on the request of the deceased, is called �euthanasia� or �mercy killing�. 
Key Words: Euthanasia; legal rights; active euthanasia, passive euthanasia.

transgender persons are often been denied. Often they are subjected to hatred, torture, cruelty, physical
injury, abuse. Due to lack of social, economic and educational rights, they get engaged in dangerous
professions and are exploited. Very little research work has been done till now to enhance the social and
legal rights of the transgender people. Thus, in this study, our attempt is to find out the social acceptance
of the transgender persons, whether the laws are adequate in safeguarding their rights and to create public
awareness to accept them as a part of the society by adopting a friendly attitude towards them.

Title: ENRICHING CURRICULUM � USING LOCAL WISDOM
Abstract: It is time to realize that education has to come out of its of school campus. That is education has to be
inter connected with the society and available resources in it. It�s a narrow approach towards the curriculum by including the school activities, academic and non-academic only and thus neglecting a
very good resource called Local Wisdom to enrich the curriculum. Local wisdom means availability of human skill or wisdom which is easily accessible or something that is within the reach. Although
technology has advanced a lot, Educational advancement still works in isolation and still there are challenges we face. The best use of local wisdom could be done in such case through the available
resources to enrich curriculum. There are many talented persons possessing excellent skill which can give ample motivation and reinforcement to accelerate the inquisitiveness of the students and increase
their enthusiasm. Values, Morals, Science etc. can be taught easily and effectively with the same. Using local wisdom to enrich the curriculum is the need of this hour. Thus, using Local Wisdom is
the key of the best management of educational institutions and make the education accessible to all.

Title: EFFECT OF PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING INSTRUCTION ON SECONDARY SCHOOL PHYSICS STUDENTS IN UNDERSTANDING OF ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES
Abstract: The study of electromagnetic waves helps physics students acquire knowledge which is relevant to solving problems in their daily life. Helping students maximize knowledge acquisition has become key in science education research. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of Problem-Based Learning Instruction on physics students� understanding of electromagnetic waves. A quasi-experimental, non-equivalent pretest-posttest control group design was used in this study with PBL instruction as the intervention. This study involved 419 students from 16 public and private secondary schools in Mitooma district-South Western Uganda. Descriptive statistics, paired and independent samples t tests were used in data analysis. Findings from the study indicated that PBL did improve significantly students� understanding of electromagnetic waves more than traditional methods with those exposed to both pretest and posttest scoring significantly more than those exposed only to the posttest. However, students still exhibited difficulties such as arranging the electromagnetic spectrum in order of either increasing or decreasing wavelength/frequency. We recommend that school officials devise means of supplementing book libraries with internet connected computers to
help students visualize the nature of electromagnetic waves to enhance their understanding of intended concepts.

Abstract: Over the next twenty years, global growth and poverty reduction will be driven by today�s youth, yet majority face significant difficulties engaging in productive employment; mainly due to a
mismatch of the competencies they possess to those required by the labour market. Therefore, the problem of unemployment among the youth is a huge concern. Technical Vocational
Education and Training (TVET) is one promising avenue in addressing this problem, which is the highest in Africa. Governments globally endeavour to create an economic environment
that promotes the growth of enterprises and generally stimulates the economy. This study was built on the objectives of examining the effect of entrepreneurship and business development
skills acquired by TVET youth graduates on their employability at labor market in Ngororero District; finding out the effect of practical skills acquired by TVET youth
graduates on employability at the workplace in Ngororero District and determining the effect of problem-solving skills acquired by TVET youth graduates on their employability in
Ngororero District. Qualitative approach was used CBT and TVET graduates, trainers and employers and one local authority comprised the study sample frame and simple random and
purposive sampling were used to draw an aggregate of 252 study subjects. The study findings were that TVET schools offering CBT programs had high levels of access to technical training
opportunities and ensured that graduates learning experience was unique due to training based on industry�s occupational standards. The study concludes that CBT programs immensely
increased the employability aspects among the youth graduates. The study observes that those trainees and graduates who underwent the CBET programs were very competent at their
workplace and performed better. The study also shows that competency levels of Entrepreneurship and Business development skills acquired by TVET youth graduates define
them at labour market. Furthermore, it shows there exists a strong relationship between problem Solving skills acquired by TVET youth graduates and level of handling problems at
workplace. Skills obtained from CBT driven technical courses provided the youth with more competencies. The study recommends creating awareness on the role of TVET, validate the
certificates got from TVET schools and allow graduates to have access on job posted by MIFOTRA and support it for it would lead to the youth employability and being more
competent in skills acquired and consequently, be ready for market and labour opportunities

Title: STUDIES ON DISPARITIES IN SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS AND LIVELIHOOD SECURITY OF RURAL WOMEN
Abstract: Any type of development cannot help women until or unless their economic status and livelihood security have improved in urban as well as in rural settings. 
Many studies have pinpointed the issues relating to women, but not much attention have been paid to examine their economic status and livelihood security. 
A woman is said to be economically empowered when she gains power as a result of increased access to economic resources. The means of achieving economic empowerment are : access to micro finance, increase in income, ability to make decisions regarding the utilization of credit, etc. Economic establishment is the individual aspect of women development. 
The economic empowerment means greater access to financial resource inside and outside the households, reducing vulnerability of poor women to crisis situation like famine, flood, riots, death and accidents in the family and significant increase in income of rural women. 
Economic security gives rural women the power to retain income and use it at her discretion. Hence, the present study aims to explore to find out the major factors those promoting women�s socio-economic development in true sense and simultaneously to find out the major social constraints those Indian women have to face to empower and develop themselves from the long time span. 
This study has focused on several indicators of women�s socio-economic development. Though there are a large number of studies related to socio-economic development of women but major promoting and reducing factors those responsible for women�s elevation in actual sense have not received much attention so far. Hence, this study assumes great importance

This study made use of quantitative and qualitative research. The perceptions of the school heads and the kindergarten teachers were obtained through questionnaires and interviews. The number of participants in the study was 265. The difference in the perceptions of the participants was computed using the z-test. Results showed that the school heads were guided by RA No. 10157 (Kindergarten Education Act) in the performance of their roles and responsibilities. The professional traits exemplified by the school heads include: having a clear understanding of the vision, mission and goals of the program, maintaining one�s integrity, treating others with respect and supports staff and their professional development. The personal traits include: committed, dedicated, nurturing, kind, trustworthy, honest, and being a visionary. The leadership styles employed were: Distributive, Pedagogical, Contextual, Principle-centered and Transformational. The challenges encountered by school heads from public schools were: the lack of funds for the improvement of physical environment and for the purchase of instructional materials, the insufficient supply of resources and the shortage of qualified kindergarten teachers while in private schools these were the negative reactions of parents towards a play-based execution of the lessons; and the confusion in the use of the Mother Tongue as medium of instruction. Based on the results, it is recommended that teachers should qualify themselves in the field, leadership responsibilities should be shared with other stakeholders, linkages with them must be established and a playground for kindergarten pupils should be present in the program.

Title: THE INFLUENCE OF FIRST LANGUAGE TO THE SECOND LANGUAGE IN TEACHING AND LEARNING KISWAHILI IN SECONDARY SCHOOL IN GAKENKE DISTRICT
Abstract: Previous studies investigated the influence of mother tongue on teaching and learning second language. Influence of L1 to L2 can be similarity, interlanguage and interference. This study was conducted in secondary schools in Gakenke District to investigate the influence of Kinyarwanda on teaching and learning Kiswahili. This study was guided by Sociocultural Theory by Vygotsky (1978), and the theory of first language (L1) and second language (L2) learning by Weineich (1953). Therefore, Kiswahili has been introduced in Rwanda since 1979 after signing agreement between Government of Rwanda and the United Republic of Tanzania. The aim of this paper was to establish to what extent does the first language influence negatively while teaching and learning a second language. In this study, different tools were used to gather information, whereby purposive sampling for interviews was used to select groups of respondents to be interviewed and classroom observation was used too. The obtained results showed that most of the time second language teachers interact with students, using first language in order to help learners as well as saving time. This study also found out that, students tend to confuse Kiswahili and Kinyarwanda because, both of them have some similarities. As a result, we noticed that, there was a serious problem of limited exposure to foreign languages. Despite all the challenges mentioned above, teachers claimed that, they are trying to cope with the demands of the new language policy, whereby new strategies have been put in place so as to encourage students to make their efforts in linguistic learning activities to attain educational objectives.

Title: FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES IN INDIA: A STUDY FOR INCREASING RURAL INCOME
Abstract: Globally all major economies have advanced food processing ecosystems with high levels of processing (70-80 per cent against 10 per cent in India) and correspondingly higher value added per worker in agriculture. India, despite being the leader in production of several agricultural commodities, lags behind several countries in terms of value added per worker in agriculture. India�s food sector attracted $ 4.18 Bn in foreign direct investment between April 2014-March 2020. Currently, India is processing less than 10% of its agricultural output, thus, presenting immense opportunities for increasing these processing levels and leading to investments in this sector. With agriculture and its allied sectors being the largest source of livelihoods in India, 70% of its rural households still depend primarily on agriculture for their livelihood. Thus, this sector provides a huge employment generation potential as well. With the government�s focus and a favorable policy ecosystem, the food processing sector has been growing at an Average Annual Growth Rate (AAGR) of around 8.41 % between 2014-18. The sector constitutes 8.83% and 10.66% of gross value added in manufacturing and agriculture sector respectively. The Indian food industry�s output is expected to reach $ 535 Bn by 2025-26. Rising household incomes, urbanization and the growth of organized retail are currently some of the major drivers of this market. According to the latest Annual Survey of Industries (2016-17), food processing accounted for 15.95% of the total number of factories, Employment to 11.36 % of the workforce, 14.09% of the output and 16.78% of the operational factories. The Indian market is fast evolving and has seen some major changes in terms of changing consumption patterns due to urbanization, changes in the gender composition of the workforce, and growing consumption rates. The growing consumption of food is expected to reach $ 1.2 Trn by 2025-26, owing to these factors.

Title: BARRIERS AND PROSPECTS OF AGRIBUSINESS FINANCING IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: A REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Abstract: The reviewed literature articles are studies related to sub-Saharan African agribusiness, finance and value chain financing published since 2016�2022 to provide insights and information on barriers and prospects of agribusiness financing in sub�Saharan Africa. The review is concerned on identifying and understanding the barriers faced by the agribusiness firm, who seek financing for agribusiness activities, who would provide it, and who would invest in agribusiness. It also identifies prospects for addressing critical barriers that can help close the financing gap in agribusiness. Agriculture and agribusiness are identified as a potential and turning points for African economic transformations and developments. Agribusiness in Africa is suffering from financial access and service despite its economic contributions to the regions. Despite, the significant need for working and investment capital, many value chain actors faced difficulties getting access to financing from formal sources, and the few who do find it mostly inadequate. Difficulties accessing finance and financial services are prevalent, with lending to agribusiness and affordable access to other financial services lagging far behind other sectors of the economy. The reliance on collateral and number of documents required discriminates against many small and medium agribusiness firms, who may have viable businesses but do not have the assets. The restrictions on access to finance for agribusiness, banks and some other financing institutions are starting to grow their agribusiness investment and their number of branches to rural areas where such needs are high is considered as a positive prospect for agribusiness finance accessibilities. The growing of urban food markets driven mainly by income growth and rapid urbanization are creating need for high-value agribusiness products, new supply chains, and supporting services in the agribusiness industry. The new jobs and income prospects created by this growth can significantly contribute to Africa�s economic transformation and development. However, to take advantage of these growth opportunities, Sub-Saharan Africa needs to close the agribusiness financing gap.

Title: DOMINANT THEMES & IMAGERIES IN PASHUPATI JHAS POETRY COLLECTION, �AWAITING EDEN AGAIN�
Abstract: The poetry of Pashupati Jha has a diversity and multiplicity of themes like nature, feminism, corruption, immorality, and other contemporary and radical issues. His poetry can be interpreted and its web can be woven by spinning the yarn of any of its fabrics. In the light of it, there is an unmistakable stamp of Sylvia Plath�s confessional writings on his poetry and leaping further a step, he ensures that the confessional tone and element in his poetry remains free from semblance of solipsistic tendencies, making his poetry comprehensive and universal in nature. Waiting seems to be over now and it�s Eden Again.

Title: USING WRITINGS TO STRENGTHEN KINYARWANDA LANGUAGE TEACHING AND PROMOTE STUDENTS� WRITING SKILLS IN RWANDAN SECONDARY SCHOOLS
Abstract:Teachers and students need to exchange ideas while they are engaged in teaching and learning activities in everyday life. When one wants to convey his or her feelings or thoughts, he or she uses a familiar language as a means of communication. As Rwandans, Kinyarwanda is the mother tongue of the Rwandan people, their first language, and an official language. It was also used in lower primary education as a language of instruction and taught as a subject in upper primary education. Various studies were carried out on how to master the four skills of language, especially one�s mother tongue. This research investigates what impedes students in some schools from having native language proficiency, as many of them use this language improperly. The purpose of this paper was to identify better methods for teaching Kinyarwanda to students, and promoting students� writing skills. This study was administered among 60 students and 5 teachers selected from two schools in Rukomo Sector, Gicumbi District using cluster sampling technique for students and purposive sampling for teachers who teach Kinyarwanda. The findings revealed that both students and teachers are not willing to use Kinyarwanda appropriately when they are conducting lessons. Findings from the teachers� questionnaire indicated that students need various competitions in terms of speaking and writing, and teachers need Kinyarwanda trainings. This implies that the government of Rwanda is required to provide sufficient instructional materials and organize school competitions that will enable students to be familiar with using appropriate vocabulary when speaking and writing Kinyarwanda.

Title: DIMENSIONS OF CULTURE, GENDER, AND SOCIETY IN TAGORE�S CHOKHER BALI
Abstract: Chokher Bali, (translated as �Eyesore�) by Rabindranath Tagore is said to be the first �modern� novel written in India. Though the book was published in 1903, it is modern in its narrative technique, subject matter, and delineation of the protagonist Binodini. Through this paper, I will study the text's historical, geographical, and cultural background. The analysis of the text will engage at the level of society, gender, and history. For this purpose, the novel has been examined through the lens of Cultural Studies to explore Tagore�s depiction of the Indian society that was undergoing social transformation. The study also seeks to determine whether the characters' choices were governed by the cultural and religious practices of the specific time frame within which the narrative has been woven. My goal is to examine the novel as a cultural artefact that is shaped by its context and provides insight into the nuances of the age.

Title: FACTORS LEADING TO MATERIALISM IN CHILDREN: A SURVEY OF SCHOOL CHILDREN IN AHMEDABAD, INDIA
Abstract: Materialism is a philosophical perspective that emphasizes on physicalism or state of being. When children exhibit a tendency or express desire for material possessions, it can be termed as materialism in children. Researchers working on materialism among children highlighted that it is increasing among children. Past researchers have associated marketing, role of media, peers and so on as reasons for increasing materialism in children. However, there is still not much clarity with regard to the individual and situational factors that lead to materialism in children, which increases their vulnerability to such thoughts and behaviors. The present study is an attempt to understand the role of different internal and external factors that lead to child materialism.
Key words: Materialism, children, socialization, advertising, child development, peer influence.

Title: IMPACT OF READING ON THE ENHANCEMENT OF COGNITIVE SKILLS AND CREATIVITY IN CHILDREN
Abstract: Child   development   is   closely   tied   to   cognitive   abilities,   communication skills, inventiveness, and the capacity to conceive and share ideas. It has been noted that children who engage in reading from an early age tend to have enhanced cognitive functions and experience better mental well-being as they approach their teenage years. However, the interest in reading among children is waning due to the allure of digital gaming and the use of various electronic devices. This article delves into the effects of reading on children, arguing that it develops empathy, curiosity, knowledge, and social skills. It further explores how different genres and themes in children's literature play a role in enhancing imagination and cognitive skills.

Title: MODEL BASED ON VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK: ENHANCING CYBERSECURITY IN THE RWANDAN UNIVERSITY SECTOR
Abstract: The rapid growth of technology and digitalization has revolutionized the way universities operate and conduct their academic activities. However, this progress has also exposed the Rwandan university sector to an ever-increasing range of cyber threats and vulnerabilities. The main objective of this research is to design and implement a robust model based on Virtual Private Network (VPN) technology to enhance cyber security in the Rwandan universities. The problem statement revolves around not only escalating cyber security challenges and loopholes at the Universities, but also issue of using a single security measure of currently using only firewall as a security measures which has some drawbacks, and all these may lead to data breaches, unauthorized access, and potential loss of sensitive information. To achieve the research objectives, a mixed-methods approach has been adopted, qualitative data have been gathered through interviews and focus groups with IT related personnel to gain insights into the existing security vulnerabilities and concerns. Additionally, quantitative data have been collected to assess the frequency and nature of cyber-attacks experienced by the Universities. The study used different tools including Eve-ng, AnyConnect, VMware workstation and Wireshark for network traffic analysis. In this project, a novel and practical model based on Virtual Private Network technology has been designed to reinforce the cyber security infrastructure of the University of Kigali. Secondly, the research findings shed light on the current cyber security landscape in the Rwandan university sector and provide valuable recommendations to other universities in the country to bolster their own security measures.

educational paradigms. To address the demands of a rapidly changing job market, skill-based
education is crucial. Upskilling initiatives can equip individuals with the technical and soft skills
needed for future employment. This involves not only vocational training but also integrating
skills development into mainstream education. This paper explores innovative approaches to
education in the Indian context, drawing on historical perspectives, modern recommendations,
and the potential of emerging technologies.

Title: CONCEPT OF �RAPE� UNDER INDIAN LAW: DEPIVATION OF TRANSGENDER PERSONS
Abstract: Indian legislators have enacted a new substantive criminal code namely Bharatiya Nyaya
Sanhita, 2023 replacing the old colonial legislation Indian Penal Code created by the then
British rulers in 1860. Many new notions have been introduced and many provisions of the
old Act have been discarded considering their relevancy in the present era. Apart from men and
women, transgender persons have also been recognized as a gender in the new Act which was
not the position in the old legislation. But the concept of �rape� as an offence has not at all been
changed, the same idea of committing the crime by a man against a woman has been retained
in the new Act also, no victimization of a transgender has been considered herein. But in many
developed countries including U. K. and U.S.A., this crime is conceptualized as genderneutral.
The famous judgement passed by the Hon�ble Supreme Courtin National Legal
Services Authorities vs. Union of India [(2014) 5 SCC 438], the Apex Court categorically
affirmed that the fundamental rights granted under the Constitution of India would be equally
applicable to the transgender persons following which, the Transgender Persons (Protection of
Rights) Act, 2019 was enacted by the Indian Parliament. Accordingly, the provisions
containing the concept of rape should suitably be amended so that the trans genders may also be
accommodated as the victims of rape.

Title: PORTFOLIO-BASED ASSESSMENT: A HOLISTIC METHOD FOR EVALUATING HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS
Abstract: The evaluation system has evolved with time in the education field. Many commissions have identified those flaws and taken steps for redressal. In modern education system, there are numerous assessment techniques prevails. Portfolio-Based Assessment (PBA) is one of these evaluation methods introduced in today�s educational sector. PBA offers a transformative alternative to traditional evaluation methods in higher education, focusing on the development of holistic learners through continuous reflection and individualized growth. By integrating portfolios, students have the opportunity to showcase a diverse array of skills from problem-solving and critical thinking to creativity and communication. This approach fosters self-regulation and metacognitive skills, encouraging students to actively engage with feedback and make improvements throughout their academic experience. While PBA offers many benefits, its implementation poses challenges such as the subjectivity of assessment, time constraints for educators, and student resistance to non-traditional evaluation methods. This paper argues for the integration of portfolio-based assessment as a holistic model that better aligns with contemporary educational goals, offering case studies and strategies for effective implementation. Ultimately, PBA supports the development of reflective, creative, and autonomous learners, better preparing them for the complexities of both academic and professional environments.

Title: INFLUENCE OF CELESTIAL PATTERNS ON HUMAN MOOD AND BEHAVIOR: A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS
Abstract: This paper presents an in-depth examination of how celestial patterns - specifically lunar phases and sunlight exposure - influence human mood, sleep quality, and cognitive performance. Through a combination of primary survey data (n=60), mathematical modeling, meta-analysis of 27 studies, and longitudinal data from global research initiatives, we demonstrate significant correlations between these celestial phenomena and various aspects of human behavior. Our findings reveal a logarithmic relationship between sunlight exposure and mood improvement, cyclical patterns in productivity aligned with lunar phases, and distinct clusters of behavioral responses to celestial influences. The study bridges empirical data with theoretical models to provide a nuanced understanding of these complex relationships. Statistical analysis reveals moderate effect sizes (Cohen's d ranging from 0.29 to 0.53) across multiple domains, suggesting celestial influences represent a meaningful contributor to human behavioral variance.

Title: THE TREND OF MALE ENTRY INTO THE CULINARY FIELD � A PRELIMINARY STUDY AT SUNGAI PETANI COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Abstract: Culinary arts have become one of the most important fields of work in the hospitality and tourism industry in Malaysia, involving both men and women. This field is dynamic with the potential to create a positive impact in various aspects of life. However, the trend of male students entering the culinary field shows a significant change. This trend may be due to factors such as economic stability, career suitability, current trends, and the factors of career choice within the culinary field itself. A study has been conducted to examine the validity of the stated factors among male culinary students at Sungai Petani Community College. Data was collected through a questionnaire from 79 male students at the culinary certificate level. The study findings indicate a significant relationship between economic stability and the choice of the culinary field (?? = 0.649, p < 0.01), as well as a stronger relationship between career suitability and the choice of the culinary field (?? = 0.722, p < 0.01), highlighting the importance of economic factors and individual interest in career decisions. Additionally, economic stability also influences the perception of career suitability with a very strong correlation (r=0.861, p < 0.01), making these two factors complementary in attracting students to the culinary field. This study suggests several strategic measures such as awareness programs, the development of inclusive curricula, and promotion through social media to attract more men to the culinary field. In addition, the provision of modern facilities and collaboration with the industry are important to ensure that students gain relevant practical experience. In conclusion, this trend not only enriches the diversity in culinary arts but also has the potential to meet the professional workforce needs in the food and hospitality industry.
