The digital age has witnessed an explosion in personal data collection, raising concerns about individual privacy. The Right to be Forgotten (RTBF) empowers individuals to request the deletion of their personal data. The Digital Personal Data Protection Act of 2023 is India's answer to growing concerns over data privacy; it saw several challenges before its enactment. This paper compares the RTBF within the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) frameworks and India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDPA). The paper explores the jurisprudence of RTBF in India and the EU. The paper analyses the provisions under GDPR and DPDPA concerning the Right to be Forgotten to understand how far the DPDPA provisions stand their ground. The country is still at a nascent stage in data protection. The strengths and weaknesses of DPDPA are yet to be truly realized as they have yet to come into force.

Preserving tribal identity is a significant problem for indigenous tribes globally, given the rising globalization and cultural uniformity. Literature, in its diverse manifestations, including oral storytelling and written works, plays a crucial role in preserving the cultural legacy and identity of these groups. This Paper examines the various roles of literature in maintaining tribal identity, emphasizing its importance in conveying historical events, traditional knowledge, language, and cultural customs. The study explores the historical backdrop of tribal literature, charting its progression from oral traditions to modern written formats. This analysis explores the role of these narratives as containers of collective memory and sagacity, enabling the transmission of knowledge between generations and strengthening cultural customs and principles. Following that, the investigation specifically examines the significance of literature in the maintenance of tribal languages. Considering the rapid decline of indigenous languages, literature plays a key role in recording and reviving native languages, so protecting an essential aspect of tribal identity. The research also examines the influence of literature on strengthening social cohesion and identity among tribal societies. By engaging with narratives, verses, and various forms of literary art, individuals have the opportunity to establish a connection with their heritage, which in turn nurtures a feeling of belonging and a sense of honor towards their cultural identity. Literature serves as a resistance against the efforts of dominant civilizations to eliminate and absorb other cultures.

Microwave-assisted synthesis of ?-amino acids from sulphonamides and ?, ?-unsaturated esters, utilizing K2CO3 and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as catalysts, yields the target compounds efficiently with short reaction times. This innovative approach delivers protected ?-amino acids in high yields, significantly reducing reaction times while retaining antibacterial activity. In this study, eight ?-amino acids were synthesized via microwave-assisted techniques and assessed for their antibacterial efficacy using the Disc Diffusion Method against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and B. subtilis. Characterization of the ?-amino acids was performed using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and IR spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized ?-amino acids exhibited remarkable inhibition of gram-negative bacteria, particularly E. coli, surpassing the efficacy of the standard antibiotic Ampicillin used as a control.

Indoor as air quality (IAQ) plays a role in determining the comfort and work efficiency of individuals especially in Workspaces where people spend a significant amount of time working on their tasks. IAQ has an impact on the health and productivity of occupants as poor IAQ can worsen symptoms related to Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) like headaches, breathing problems and tiredness. Maintaining a temperature is essential for ensuring productivity levels, which is closely linked to IAQ conditions. When occupants feel uncomfortable due to temperatures, they are more likely to be distracted and experience reduced abilities underscoring the importance of architectural solutions. Installing HVAC systems with temperature controls, adequate insulation and smart shading devices is crucial for creating a pleasant indoor environment that promotes productivity. Additionally addressing IAQ issues is vital. High levels of pollutants such as organic compounds (VOCs) particulate matter and carbon dioxide not only worsen SBS symptoms but also hamper cognitive performance and increase absenteeism rates. Improving IAQ through ventilation systems, air purification methods and using friendly building materials are key architectural strategies for enhancing indoor spaces. This comprehensive approach, to designing office environments prioritizes the wellbeing of occupants by fostering healthiness, creativity, job satisfaction while mitigating the effects associated with SBS. This research paper delves into the connection, between building design, comfortable temperatures, air quality indoors and Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) in office spaces. By reviewing existing research, case studies and design techniques it seeks to identify effective approaches for promoting healthy work environments and mitigating the prevalence of SBS.

The past decade has witnessed a rise in the e-commerce platforms in India which has led to an enormous influx of data generated through customer interactions, transactions, and browsing behaviors. In this context, data mining acts as a powerful tool in extracting valuable data from large raw data sets, enabling e-commerce platforms to enhance user experiences, optimize platform operations and formulate strategic decisions. However, the use of data mining techniques in e-commerce raises legal concerns that necessitate careful consideration. This paper highlights the methods used in data mining to understand patterns and relationships between the customer and the platform, thus, increasing the business value, and explores the legal implications of data mining in e-commerce platforms in India. It examines how data mining practices intersect with the existing regulations, primarily focusing on the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the recently enacted Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Further, it analyses landmark judgments and regulatory guidelines set forth by the Judiciary on the evolving jurisprudence around personal data protection, the concept of consent and liability, in essence, the consumer rights in e-commerce platforms. One of the primary concerns that data mining raises is, user consent and data ownership. E-commerce platforms collect and store a multitude of personal as well as behavioral data, often without taking explicit consent from the users. This further raise privacy concerns of the users with no right to data portability and the right to be forgotten under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, which further brings about a gap between the legislation and precedents. Further, the cross-border transfer of data to other countries might pose a threat to the privacy of users interacting on such e-commerce platforms in India. The transfer of personal data from India to other countries, unless they are explicitly blacklisted by the Central Government, may be subject to unauthorized use and breaches by private and governmental entities if there is no robust data protection legislation in the transferee country. This further raises the issue of inadequate protection of personal data in the process of data mining by e-commerce platforms that are providing goods and services to users within the territory of India. This paper delves into concepts of data privacy, data localization, and user consent enshrined in the Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 with an attempt to answer the fundamental question of pondering: how can we protect our personal data without parting ways with the evolving technology? With the ever-evolving landscape of data protection and e-commerce, the stakeholders must ensure compliance with the existing and forthcoming regulations. The e-commerce platforms must adopt transparent data collection practices, robust mechanisms for consent, and extensive data protection policies to mitigate legal risks. The research methodology adopted for this research paper is doctrinal, descriptive and conceptual. The sources referred to are secondary in nature, such as books, articles, and journals.

The growth of a globally interconnected society that is accessible for use and manipulation at the click of a button is a fact that is well-known and debated in common parlance. This progress in networking through the use of cyberspace, a platform where the boundaries are fluid and exist virtually, has continued to attract the attention of legal scholars and lawmakers alike. While the advantages are countless, the associated exposure to an entirely new category of crime, "cybercrime", and anti-competitive market practices by businesses that float through these mediums cannot be ignored. The abuse of dominance is predated by the two-step formula used alike by every major online corporation, whereby they first and foremost, acquire a large audience that relies on the services provided by them. Second, these internet-based corporations figure out how to profit from the clientele by justifying breaking the customary laws of business and exploiting loopholes or just defying the law, all of which typically serve as the source of unparalleled growth. This study primarily attempts to scrutinize the functioning of e-commerce retail websites by analyzing how through the control of the internet, sometimes by a sizable portion of the marketplace or the inventions, an unfair advantage is being gained by particular businesses at the cost of the customers as well as other competitors. The paper makes use of a multi-disciplinary approach where the operations of e-commerce platforms are analyzed by looking into the provisions of the Information Technology Act, 2000 in addition to laws regulating competition in the market. The application of anti-trust and other IT law regulations is becoming increasingly complicated as innovations are made every passing second. Therefore, the speed with which the legislative process works, the increasing susceptibility of consumers to fall prey to cyber frauds and search engine biases that redirect them to websites that already enjoy a competitively advantageous position.
