 Abstract

Day by day everything in our lives have changed. And with this change one important thing that is required to sustain our lives that had been adversely affected is the greenery. And a large extent of biomass is being affected in the construction of roads but equivalent number of plants are not planted to meet the deficit. The rapid rise in population led to rapid increase in vehicle density and industries, and the air is being highly polluted, which led to rise in various disease and problems among the living beings on earth and subsequently affecting the environment. But keep a pace with modern development the highways are in a need to be converted into a smart highway. In this article, we are going to propose a model, that will club together greenery with technologies in an innovative way to convert our traditional highways into a green and smart highway with the main objective to reduce pollution in a natural way. The article includes implementation of city trees (consist of mosses), along with some green energy harvesting devices with a provision for good revenue generation through advertisement space and surplus electricity generation in the proposed model.

 Abstract

Gandhiji's educational philosophy, which evolved during his lifetime in the form of Gandhian School of educational thought, has not received adequate attention in policy formulations during last seven decades. Globally, it is being realized that his views were dynamic and futuristic in nature. Fully understanding inadequacies of our over dependence on the alien model of education and the needs of the weakest, the poorest and the neglected, he evolved an indigenous strategy to provide equality of opportunity and success to each and every individual of this category. NCTE lays great emphasis on the contribution of Indian educationists and thinkers and has undertaken a project to acquaint teacher educators with their thoughts. Since Gandhiji has written practically on every aspect of human life and his writings, particularly on education, are full of incisive insight, practical experiences and pragmatic foresight, I cherished the idea of having an anthology of his writings on Education compiled which I relish to present in the form of this book. It traces, in brief, Gandhiji's experiments in South Africa and in India and presents his thoughts on various stages of education, from pre-primary to higher education. Present this paper focuses on views and thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi ideology on sustainable education in global perspectives.

 Abstract

A disorder known as Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) develops when stomach acid reflux causes unpleasant svmptoms and/or consequences. Protor pump inhibitors (PPIs) are used in gastric acid suppression therapy to treat GERD. Here, Rabeprazole used since it provides better efficacy than other PPIs and Itopride a novel gastro prokinetic agent stimulate the movement of the gastrointestinal tract, which speeds up the emptying of the stomach and modifies the sensorimotor function of the stomach. When prokinetic drugs like itopride and proton pump inhibitors are used together to treat gastro-esophageal reflux disease, they work in combination to reduce acid production and improve therapeutic response.

 Abstract

Urban agriculture is rapidly gaining momentum, yet plant diseases continue to hamper productivity. This paper presents a novel AI-based approach for early detection of plant diseases using RGB imagery processed to simulate hyperspectral indices, particularly NDVI. A deep learning classifier trained on leaf images is augmented with Grad-CAM visualizations to localize disease symptoms. The system is deployed as a lightweight Gradio web application suitable for use on embedded platforms. Experimental results show high classification accuracy and effective visualization of disease regions, offering a low- cost, interpretable solution for early plant disease management in urban gardening.

 Abstract

Folic acid, an BCS class IV essential nutrient, having low solubility and permeability, limiting its bioavailability and therapeutic efficiency. This study aims to enhance folic acid solubility and permeability through solid dispersion and inclusion complex formation utilizing Gelucire 50/13 and hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin. Solid dispersions of folic acid with Gelucire 50/13 (1:4 ratios) increased solubility by 8.5 fold, respectively. Using HP-?-CD to create inclusion complexes increased permeability by 20-30 fold. These data illustrate the potential of this combination method to considerably increase folic acid solubility and permeability.These results show that this combined method has the potential to greatly improve folic acid solubility and permeability, hence increasing its bioavailability and therapeutic potential.

 Abstract

This research paper aims to study the impact of social media tools usage among the college students in Chennai. Further it analyses the relationship between social media usage and stress level among the college students. A survey method was applied to collect the information related to usage and stress. The standardized NSAD tool was used to test the stress level among the college students in Chennai. A pre-test and post-test was adopted in check the validity. A standardized questionnaire was used to find out the demographic factors, exam performance, usage pattern, stress factors and impacts on social activities among the students. The research finding clearly shows that there is a strong positive relationship found between the factors such as stress and social media usage. Also, there is a negative relationship found between the exam performance and social media usage. This research clearly shows the development of cooperative learning among the students in Chennai. Further it shows the level of integration of social media usage in the current educational scenario. This research shows the positive side as well as the negative side of the social media tool among the college students in Chennai. This research clearly shows the importance of social media in the current student centred learning system. This research suggests that social media should be included as a part of learning methodology among the college students

 Abstract

This study explores the role of Open and Distance Learning (ODL) in increasing access to higher education among graduate students in Assam. Given the region's socio-economic and geographical challenges, traditional educational models often fail to reach marginalized populations. ODL, through institutions like IGNOU and KKHSOU, offers flexible, cost-effective, and inclusive alternatives for students, particularly those in rural areas, women, and working professionals. The research employs a descriptive design with stratified random sampling, focusing on graduate students in Nagaon district. Findings suggest that ODL enhances access by addressing barriers such as distance, affordability, and time constraints. Female students, rural learners, and economically disadvantaged groups benefit significantly. However, challenges like poor internet connectivity, lack of digital literacy, and limited academic support persist. Despite these issues, students show high motivation and engagement, driven by personal aspirations and family support. The study emphasizes the need for policy interventions to improve digital infrastructure and student services. It concludes that ODL is a transformative tool for democratizing education, supporting lifelong learning, and promoting educational equity. The findings are relevant for policymakers, educators, and institutions aiming to expand and strengthen the ODL framework in Assam and similar contexts.

 Abstract

The use of medicinal plants in treating illnesses has been reported since ancestral times. In the case of hepatic diseases, Silymarin is a natural compound derived from the species Silybum marianum, which is commonly known as Milk thistle. This plant contains at least seven flavoligands and the flavonoid taxifolin. The hepatoprotective and antioxidant activity of silymarin is caused by its ability to inhibit the free radicals that are produced from the metabolism of toxic substances such as ethanol, acetaminophen, and carbon tetrachloride. The generation of free radicals is known to damage cellular membranes and cause lipoperoxidation. Silymarin enhances hepatic glutathione and may contribute to the antioxidant defense of the liver. It has also been shown that silymarin increases protein synthesis in hepatocytes by stimulating RNA polymerase I activity. A previous study on humans reported that silymarin treatment caused a slight increase in the compared with untreated controls.
