 Abstract

The key findings suggest that, government of India's expenditure has a significant impact on the growth and development of the country and it also highlights the strong relationship with economic growth and revenue generation in the short-run. The finding also sheds the light on the impact on the GDP and FDI and thus helps to understand the significance of the positive relationship with economic growth in both the short-run and long-run. The spending done by the government helps the poor people of India as it helps to enable the redistribution of income of the population and thus results in high consumption capacity of poor people. Therefore, government expenditure help to boost capacity consumption and other associated economic activity.

The concrete structures which are continuously exposed to moisture or salt water are prone to deteriorate quickly. The reinforcement present within the concrete members are the key elements for the durability of any structure. The structural members of a cooling tower are distressed due to continuous exposure of moisture and due to which concrete spalling, reinforcement corrosion occurred. To treat the distressed portions of the members shotcreting using readily available cementitious material is being used , the strengthening of columns were being done using micro concreting , the voids in the concrete members are treated using epoxy injection grouting, the localized spalled regions are treated using polymer modified repair mortar and after repairing the concrete members, the entire concrete surface is being treated using crack bridge water proofing coating and anti-carbonation coating to increase durability of the structure

 Abstract

Virginia Woolf was the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen, eminent editor of the Cornhill Magazine and of the Dictionary of National Biography. She was married to the writer Leonard Woolf and was a member of the Bloomsbury group and shared its ideas and beliefs. She shared the experimentalism of her age. Her realism was psychological realism. In her novel, she used the 'stream-of-consciousness technique to express the new consciousness. Another curious fact about Virginia Woolf was that she was wholly dedicated to writing. She had a singleness of purpose in mind. She was full of interest. One is surprised by the richness and complexity of her work. The English language was at her command. She had the imagination and sensitivity of a poet. She was a poet working in the medium of prose. She was highly sensitive, imaginative, dedicated, and witty as well. She was an intellectual lady but she was not confined to intellectualism. She was a social creature interested in society with an outlook both warm and shrewd. Her outlook was the outlook of the woman and can be best seen through her feminism.

 Abstract

The paper takes a descriptive approach towards a novel financial instrument - Exchange Traded Fund or ETF in the Indian market. In spite of its introduction in 2002, there has been very limited acceptance of this simple, low-cost and affordable financial instrument among the Indian retail investors. Previous literature survey has highlighted the usefulness of this product as the best first-time investment option for new retail investors. This is even better than index funds because of low cost, real-time pricing and easy liquidity. The paper further examines the difference of this product from mutual funds and index funds. It also ponders over relevant issues involved in ETF investing like taxation, dividend, expenses, relevant risks and impact on financial market.

 Abstract

To begin my essay, I would like to draw upon a famous quote by Nelson Mandela, who says, "Where globalisation means, as it so often does, that the rich and powerful now have new means to further enrich and empower themselves at the cost of the poorer and weaker, we have a responsibility to protest in the name of universal freedom." In my essay, I would first like to discuss globalisation as a term and how the world being globalised speedily influences global news and subsequently results in the formation of a new global public sphere.

 Abstract

Reproductive rights refer to the basic human rights and freedoms related to individuals ability to make decisions about their reproductive health and to control their own bodies and reproductive lives. The judiciary has a substantial and developing role in addressing the theoretical and actual obstacles that prevent women and girls from having access to reproductive health care. The government has been mandated to move away from population control strategies, confront discriminatory stereotypes that restrict women's authority, and instead place women's rights to dignity, autonomy, and bodily integrity at the centre of reproductive health-related law. Litigation has its challenges, however, including lengthy time frames and difficulty implementing decisions. We must incorporate "liberal" abortion policies. Under Article-21, of the Indian constitution the right to liberty women's reproductive Choice falls under the right to personal liberty. According to this article, it is solely the women's rights to get herself protected and also, she possesses the sacrosanct right to have her bodily integrity protected. It also includes access to safe abortion, and entitlement of the right of women to access technology for the safest abortion care. Every woman must have access to abortion services because making abortion illegal may have consequences for the right to life. This can be supported by the cases of suicides that young women commit as a result of not having an abortion because the state has made it illegal, which is a clear violation of their right to life. Anti-abortion laws could result in needless deaths, which would raise questions about the responsibility to guarantee that everyone has the right to life.

 Abstract

The concept of marriage is the key theme in Deshpande's novels and she successfully layers out the reasons for the dissonance in marital life. The success of her portrayal lies in the clarity with which she unveils the characters to resume their conjugal life even after a storming mental agony. All Deshpande's novels feature marriage that has traditional and cultural roots specific in the Indian subcontinent that fall within the Hindu marriage system. Marriage is the constant and central aspect that can be observed in the novels of Deshpande. This article throws light on the conflict in the conjugal relationship in The Binding Wine and analyses the reasons for angst and disappointment in the characters.
