 Abstract

Bihu is the pride of Assam as well as the soul of Assamese people. Dhol is the primary musical instrument in this Bihu. The mind and soul of Assamese people is thrilled by the booming sound of the Dhol and it has been playing significant role bearing its unique individual characteristics in the field of cultural harmony of various castes and tribes of Assam. It is akin to the Assamese people. It is a folk belief of the people of Assam that the promising youth full of creation should perform dances in the crop fields in order to pray for the increase of fertility of the soil of Mother Assam (Aai Axomi). The state Assam is considered as the mother by all the people in the state. The musical instruments play a significant role in this prayer and the dance performance. The identity of Dhol is being found distinctly in the ethnic groups of Assam, a field of harmony filled with different ethnicities and tribes. Some types of Dhol are - a) Jay Dhol, b) Dhepa Dhol, c) Bor Dhol, d) Pati Dhol etc. Moreover, the Dhols that have been prevailing among various tribes are being named with distinct names. (Duarah, 2009, pp. 72-74) In this research work it is being discussed about the origin and evolution of the folk Percussion instrument namely Dhol, its uses in the folk song Bihu Naam and the folk performing art form of Assam, i.e. Dholia Oja. This research paper is completed through descriptive and analytical methods with the help of primary and secondary sources and APA referencing style is followed. The main objectives of this research work are: - a) To study the origin of the instrument Dhol b) To study the rhythmic pattern of the instrument Dhol which are used in Bihu Naam. c) To study the uses of the instrument Dhol in Dholia Oja tradition of Assam and its various Components.

ABSTRACT Despite an increase in interest pertaining to the benefits of yoga practice, research focusing on the relationship between yoga practice and attention is limited. This study employed a quasi-experimental pre-test, post-test design to measure whether physical activity had an immediate effect on selective attention and mental concentration in young adults, aged 18 to25. More specifically, this study compared yoga and aerobic exercise classes to assess whether yoga practice improved attention beyond aerobic activity. The yoga and aerobic groups completed two surveys and the d2 Test of Attention at two observation points: immediately prior to and immediately following participation in their respective classes. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) found a statistically significant improvement between pre- and post-test scores on attention for both groups, with a greater improvement for the aerobic group. The findings show that physical activity had an immediate effect on the attention of the sample. Physical Education may provide the right direction and needed actions to improve the health of members of any community, society, nation and the world as a whole. An educational system encompassing the mental, emotional, social and physical dimensions of health becomes imperative to bring about all around development in children.

The principal aim of this paper is to prove apodictically that Seamus Heaney, the poet, critic and translator, is a problematologist and therefore questions permeates is oeuvre. This paper does also intend to asseverate that despite is auctorial design and determination to arrive at some sort of resolutions, revelations and "diamond absolutes" in his major works, Heaney has not devalued questions and questioning and so, therefore, most of his answers are problematological in their essential essence.

 Abstract

Nonverbal communication (NVC) plays a pivotal role in shaping professional interactions, career trajectories, and organizational outcomes. Although verbal communication provides the explicit semantic content of messages, nonverbal cues--ranging from body language and vocal qualities to spatial arrangements and digital presence--mediate how professionals are perceived in terms of competence, trustworthiness, and credibility. This paper explores the role of NVC in professional success, drawing from established theories such as Expectancy Violations Theory, Relational Communication Theory, and Embodied Cognition, alongside empirical evidence from psychology, organizational behavior, and communication studies. It analyzes the impact of NVC across multiple workplace contexts, including hiring interviews, leadership effectiveness, negotiation, teamwork, and digital collaboration. Attention is given to cultural variability, gendered interpretations, and inclusivity challenges linked to neurodiversity and disability. The article concludes with implications for training, organizational development, and ethical practices, while identifying avenues for future research into digital mediation, artificial intelligence (AI) feedback, and cross-cultural robustness.

ABSTRACT: This study aims to develop an analytical methodology for the concurrent estimation of Fipronil and Methoprene. This involved the creation and validation of both RP-HPLC and UV spectrophotometric methods suitable for analyzing these drugs in their pharmaceutical formulations. The UV spectrophotometric method employed a Q-absorption ratio approach. This particular method relies on absorbance measurements at two specific wavelengths: the iso-absorptive point (identified as 231 nm for Fipronil and Methoprene in methanol) and the ?max of Methoprene, one of the two components. The maximum wavelength was at 264nm which was of methoprene. Fipronil and Methoprene both showed linearity in the concentration range of 1-10 mg/ml. Using a C11 BDS column (100 mm 4.6 mm), the HPLC separation was accomplished. Employing a mobile phase made of acetonitrile and water in an 80:20 volume ratio. At a maximum wavelength of 254 nm, the analyte was detected while the mobile phase was flowing at a rate of 1.5 ml/min. In samples, the drug was eluted from the column after 3.1 minutes, and after 4.71 minutes. To estimate recovery and linearity, five different concentration levels of 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 g/ml were used. The % RSD findings were found to be <2% for both the methods and the correlation coefficient was more than 0.999.

 Abstract

Early marriage persists as a critical societal issue in India, despite legislative efforts like The Prohibition of Child Marriage Act of 2006, which legally set the minimum age of marriage at 18 for females and 21 for males. While reported prevalence has seen a decline, India's significant population size means it continues to contribute substantially to the global burden of child marriages. This practice is deeply intertwined with socio-economic factors, rural residence, limited educational opportunities, and poverty, perpetuating cycles of gender inequality and adverse health outcomes for young women and their children.

 Abstract

India's vision to emerge as a global leader--India @ 2047 Vikasit Bharat (Ref 1) --offers a unique opportunity for students, especially from marginalized backgrounds, to play a pivotal role in national development. Government school students, who comprise over 50% of the school-going population and largely come from Below Poverty Line (BPL) families, possess untapped potential that can be harnessed through transformative education. This study presents a case analysis of ZPHS Jonnavalasa, (Ref 2) a government school in Vizianagaram district of Andhra Pradesh- India, where a pilot project was implemented using the "Acharya Kalam's National Human Transformative Model" (Ref 3). The initiative, led by Dr Nalla Boina Sudershan Acharya, Founder, Lead India Foundation (Ref 4), and team focused on training and mentoring students as Change Agents, guiding them through a structured "Aap Badho Desh Ko Badhao" ((You Develop, Nation Develops) (Ref 5) training program encompassing human values, goal setting, personality development leadership and Patriotism. The research model analyzes the impacts of the intervention on students' inner dimensions development across physical, mental, intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual domains. It further explores the ripple effect on the school day to day extracurricular activities where students take up responsibilities of different groups changing environment, peer groups, and community. This model aligns with National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 (Ref 6) and supports UNO Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) (Ref 7) . Goal No 1 - No Poverty and Goal No 4-Quality Education. The findings showcase how these students not only transformed themselves but also influenced their peers, families, and school environments and communities. Further indicate measurable changes in student behaviour, academic performance, leadership, and civic responsibility, highlighting the model's potential scalability for broader national adoption. This study is authored jointly by Dr. Nalla Boina Sudershan Acharya, Principal Investigator and Founder of Lead India Foundation (Ref 12 ); Dr. Vijaya Laxmi Gannavarapu, Headmistress of ZPHS Jonnavalasa and Project Coordinator; and supported by Dr. Kommu Naveen Kumar, Lead India Alumni.
