 Abstract

Performance psychology lay tremendous emphasis on mental toughness. In sports psychology mental toughness techniques are used for peak performance and achieving better results in sports. The term is coined by Loehr and discussed it in a book entitled "The Only Way to Win". Although both men and women actively take part in sports, research on mental toughness of sportsperson on the basis of gender is not vast and the results on role of gender in determining mental toughness are not consistent. The present study belongs to tribal community of Chhattisgarh in which it is aimed to compare mental toughness of tribal male and tribal female sportsperson of Chhattisgarh. The study comprise of 40 tribal national male sportsperson and 40 tribal female national sportsperson. The psychological tool to assess the mental toughness was questionnaire prepared by Tiwari (2007). Independent sample 't' test gives clear indication that mental toughness and and its sub-scale vary among tribal sportsperson on the basis of gender. It was observed that tribal male sportsperson are mentally more strong as compared to tribal female sportsperson of Chhattisgarh. The results are discussed in the light of biological difference and socialization theories and conclusions were drawn accordingly.

The COVID-19 pandemic has spread throughout the world and changed all facets of our everyday lives dramatically. The WHO and CDC expect substantial spikes in the rate of infection cases and deaths, although there are signs of hope due to the availability of vaccines that are currently administered. The situation is still bad in many countries and new ways of dealing with the pandemic will be significant. Inspired by the rapid application and development of AIs and Big Data in different fields, this paper aims to underline their significance to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak and avoid the severe consequences of the disease [1]. First, I will include a review of artificial intelligence and then describe its applications to combat COVID-19, some up with a smart device that will detect the disease and alert people to maintain social distance. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, various groups of researchers have been making rapid efforts to leverage a broad range of technology to tackle this threat worldwide [2]. This paper will offer new perspectives to epidemiologists and communities on the significance of AI and big data to help in reducing the spread of the disease. The use of AI-linked smart devices during this crisis reduces the potential spread of COVID-19 to other patients through early detection and alerting patients to maintain social distance protocol. The main aim of this research paper is to come up with an artificial intelligence smart device that is economical in identifying the Covid-19 pandemic and alerting people about social distance per the WHO measure [3].

Article 227 of our Indian Constitution provides that every High Court shall have superintendence over all courts and tribunals throughout the territories in relation to which it exercises jurisdiction. The criminal procedure code further provides that every High Court shall so exercise superintendence over subordinate courts so as to ensure proper disposal of cases buy such courts. The �Code� has entrusted every High Court with several powers and duties for providing fair justice in the society. The Allahabad High Court, in one of its Judgment�s while dealing with the section 482, has observed that �The section is a sort of reminder to the High Courts that they are not merely courts in law, but also courts of justice and possess inherent powers to remove injustice�. Let us discuss this concept to understand Section 482.

Although learner centred teaching has recently become one of the most prevalent educational ideas, the term LCT has long been in existence in the education setting. LCT is a very important teaching-learning process in the field of education. Studies and research are being done in this regard all over the world. Teachers have a very important role to play in LCT. In addition, parents seem to have a very important role to play in LCT. But in LCT, teachers, students, parents, headmaster, family and society have a very important role to play. In this context, this study analyzes the role of teachers, students, parents and educational materials in LCT. The IDR method has been used in this study. On the basis of the IDR, the role of teachers, students, parents and educational materials in LCT has been analyzed. This study includes various research articles, reports and dissertation published online in the different countries of the World. Results of the present study indicated that LCT is an important teaching learning strategies in the field of education. Without proper knowledge of LCT and its strategies, teachers� preparation, qualitative education is not possible. Accordingly, students has also great role in the implementation of LCT and parental involvement is also necessary in the effective classroom delivery of LCT. Thus, this study concluded that role of the teachers, students, parents and instructional resources should be considered while implementing LCT in the classroom.

 Abstract

The Economy of India is rural in character and is basically concerned with agriculture and allied activities. The allied activities include animal husbandry, fisheries, apiculture, sericulture, floriculture etc. There are also a section of the rural population such as; small and self-employed businessmen, small and marginal farmers, agricultural labourers & rural artisans pursuing occupations as potters, blacksmiths, cobblers, weavers, barbers etc. by way of inheritance & who are engaged in seasonal farming. This is due to the fact that neither their basic occupation nor agriculture provides round-the-year employment to many of them for sustaining their livelihood. These people are the pillars of rural economy. On account of the division among the people engaged in these limited means of earnings, unfair rivalry and dependence on village money lenders for urgent and immediate financial accommodation have seriously jeopardised the working and the socio economic life of each categories of community. Therefore neither agriculture nor the economy developed. Agriculture is the foundation on which the entire superstructure of the growth of the industrial and other sectors of the economy stands. Because of the local feel,, familiarity and the wide-spread existence of the co-operative societies at the grass-root level, they can play a very crucial role in implementing the various government sponsored schemes for the sustainable development of the weaker sections of the society in the rural and urban areas as well. The Co-operative societies have the potential to become the participatory institutions and at the institutional route for the development of the rural sector and hence the economy as a whole. Against the back drop, this paper seeks to assess the role of the co-operative organisations, specifically the co-operative banks, in the socio-economic development process of Odisha.

Solar photovoltaic systems energy is currently growing fast around the world. The increasing of installed area of solar energy production around the world gives us an unlimited potential energy source available from sun. In our daily life thermal energy and solar light can provide sufficient electricity. Adding to this one photovoltaics, concentrationphotovoltaic, concentrationphotovoltaic, photovoltaic / thermal and solar electric have been developing for energy conversion. The main aim of the present study is to make review on exergy analysis and their assessment related to performance of a wide range of solar photovoltaic systems. Exergy is used to asses and improve energy systems. After that the studied systems are exergetically analysed and evaluated solar energy production includes solar photo voltaics (PV�s) and hybrid (PV/Twater or PV/Tair) solar collectors. The concentrated solar power systems with Nano fluid and PCM studies are exhibited. The advantage and disadvantages of these all the systems are presented.
