 Abstract

The present research, titled The Position of Women in Ao Naga Society, has been undertaken to understand the role and position of women in Ao Naga society. The research initially looks into the various social and cultural practices of traditional Ao society prior to the advent of Christianity. It analyses how various practices, notions and behaviour are shaped by extant gender norms. While much has already been written and published on the women in Western or mainland Indian society, the position of women in marginalized cultures like the Ao Nagas has still not been studied in a detailed manner. Most of the academic work done on the Ao Nagas focus on their customary, political or social life. The position of women continues to remain a topic which has not been explored. The research, as an initial attempt to study the role of gender in Naga society, has attempted to provide an inclusive and encompassing overview of women and their participation in the Ao community.

 Abstract

Every year, the Indian state of Assam, which lies in the heart of Southwestern Monsoon belt, receives excessive rainfall. The existence of long ranges of mountain belts on the northern and northeastern frontiers of the state causes the surface runoff to flow down the vast alluvial plains, causing the rivers to swell up. The mighty river Brahmaputra flows through the Kaziranga National Park thereby killing and injuring hundreds of animals. Animals adapt naturally to floods but when the waters hit a certain level, they gravitate towards safer, higher ground in the Karbi Anglong hills.Over the years, the highway is getting increasingly tough to cross. A few of the nine wildlife corridors on the highway � Panbari, Haldibari, Bagori, Harmati, Kanchanjuri, Hatidandi, Deosur, Chirang and Amguri � are choked by traffic.Therefore, Initiatives recommends the need for landscape-scale conservation. Optical data does not stand adequate to meet the requirements for flood analysis in the region during the monsoons. Synthetic Aperture Data, on the other hand, makes the study of the Brahmaputra basin possible even during the cloudy monsoons. SAR sensors work by emitting microwave radiation and are sensitive to the ��roughness�� and ��wetness�� of the target. Google Earth Engine(GEE), a cloud based platform for planetary based geospatial analysis, brings about computational ways to monitor, study and predict high impact societal and surface phenomenon like floods. The research aims to analyze flooding in the Brahmaputra Valley, with special reference to Kaziranga National Park using dual polarization C-band data in the GEE platform. The study aims to identify and classify the inundated areas and introduce further prospects of visual data analysis.

 Abstract

Mental health problems associated with COVID-19 are directly affecting almost all small and large communities of the world. Due to social isolation, perceived danger, physical discomfort, uncertainty, fear of virus transmission and portraying negative news in large-scale media coverage, people may experience symptoms of loneliness, stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia and anger. Psychiatrists, psychologist and other health workers around the world should know about these manifestations, their correlations, and the strategies to manage them. The purpose of this systematic review was to analyse researches that investigated the effect of COVID 19 on mental health. 24 full text studies were reviewed and included in this study. Out of which 15 researches were conducted in China, 2 in Iran, 2 in Italy, 2 in India and one each in Turkey, USA, Spain and Denmark. There were a total of 97,770 participants in 24 studies, with a sample size ranging from 20 to 52,730 participants. The effect of COVID-19 on mental health was assessed on the general population in 17 studies and on health workers in 7 studies. Studies found moderate or severe levels of stress, depression, and anxiety in respondents due to the effect of COVID-19. Female gender, student status specific physical symptoms, poor self-rated health status and history of chronic illness were associated with high levels of stress, anxiety, and depression.

 Abstract

People�s perspectives vary when they have to travel away from their homeland. It is natural to develop a spectrum of feelings, some with deep longing for their homeland and others who might forget their homeland and embrace the hospitality of the host land. Kiran Desai through the novel The Inheritance of Loss reveals to us the effect of the diasporic movement and how it frames one�s outlook on life. Every character in this novel is unique and in some ways representative of entire humankind. Jemubai Patel converts himself to an epitome of western culture and belittles India. Biju who is the polar opposite of Jemubai patel , longs for India when being away from his country. Sai who is brought up in western culture, understands the worth of India when the novel ends. Gyan an Indian Gorkha tries to make a space for him in his own country, where he is treated as an alien. Father Booty and Uncle Pooty foreign nationals understand that no matter how much they embrace and love India, they cannot make it their homeland. This novel doesn�t just end in an Indian context , but is linked with the entire world , which is a framework of relations formed by people from different countries.

 Abstract

Sanskrit has been the chief source language of Indian culture from ancient times. Pali had been popular in many parts of Asia from Buddhist times as the language of intellectual, scientific and religious discourses. Tamil is an important source language for understanding the synthesis of Aryan and Dravidian elements in Indian culture. From the medieval period, Hindi has been emerging as a vehicle of culture and a language for contact with people. In contemporary India, Hindi is a link language for the 22 or more major regional languages. As a vehicle of culture, it represents the dynamism of vibrant Indian culture. During the great socio-cultural movements like the Bhakti movement and the freedom movement, Hindi has been a vehicle of communication for the millions. Because of the perception of Hindi as a communication language of the masses, by Gandhi, Dr. Ambedkar and other leaders, it was accepted in the Indian Constitution as the official language of the Indian Union. The Indian bureaucracy is still under the dominance of English, although it is only the co-official language. As far as the people are concerned, Hindi is a �great communication language�. By analyzing the trends of teaching Hindi globally, we can observe that strategies are being evolved to teach Hindi as a communication language.

Abstract: Most of the Diseases are often connected to the less or more production of certain �Proteins�. If the production of these proteins is discord many diseases can be treated or cured. Antisense technology is a method that can deny the protein production. It used to design new therapeutics for diseases in which the production of a specific protein plays a circle role. RNA plays a central role in the expression of all genes. Any sequence within RNA can be recognized by complementary base pairing, synthetic oligonucleotides. Antisense technology is a tool that is used for the Inhibition of gene expression. The principle behind it is that an antisense nucleic acid sequence base pairs with its complementary sense RNA strand and prevents it from being translated into a protein. Antisense oligonucleotides are short, chemically modified strands of 15-20 nucleotides, which hybridize to a specific complementary area of mRNA of a disease related target gene, thus blocking its expression in protein synthesis. This article gives brief introduction regarding the antisense technology.

 Abstract

A wireless sensor network is a group of sensors nodes placed strategically in a field of interest to extract particular information in a determined range and then transmit this information to a base station also known as the sink node then feed into the internet. The data collection process is the main goal in a WSN. To achieve the aforementioned goal, we will consider sensing methods such as one-hop transmission, multi-hop transmission, or clustering. These methods are effective in various application demands for a collection of reliable data from our sensor nodes. The WSNs sensor nodes either battery-powered or harvested energy-powered, energy consumption still play a crucial role in the inaccuracy of data sensed. Therefore, we have to design better network communication protocols and network organizations to conserve energy. This paper highlights several adaptive methods by reviewing their approaches solutions and performance in data handling that contribute to numerous issues and challenges such as power consumption constraints, node failure, packet collision, and time delay.

Assamese Department Abstract: In the group of prevailing language families� Indo-European language family is the largest. A notable Indo-Aryan language included in this family Assamese is originated and evolved through various settlements and social and religious civilization. As a New Indo-Aryan language Assamese is rich with its own separate characteristics. On the basis of theories of origin, evolution and abundance proposed by former linguist Banikanta Kakoti, Kaliram Medhi, Dimbeswar Neog etc., Upendra Nath Goswami has partitioned Assamese language from 7th century to 10th century as Old Assamese, Middle Assamese and Modern Assamese depending on their evolution which reflects the image of development of the language from days after days. (Upendra Nath Goswami, �Axomiya Bhaxar Udbhab, Xomriddhi Aru Bikax�, P.1, 1991). The paper includes a contrastive study on Indeclinable Assamese and Bodo language.

 Abstract

Concrete is the premier construction material around the world and is most widely used in all types of construction works, including infrastructure, low and high-rise buildings, and domestic developments. In construction industry the rising cost of construction material is the great factor. The reason for increase in cost is high demand of concrete and scarcity of raw material. Due to this, excessive exploitation of aggregates occurs. It creates environmental issues and as a result, certain restrictions were put forward by the government, in order to stop these exploitations. Now it is essential to find out a new source of aggregates. The coarse aggregate is the main constituent of concrete mix, in this study we used coconut shell as a course aggregate and been discussed based on the results obtained from literature review. The use of coconut shell can also help the prevention of the environment. The aim is to analyze compressive strength and split tensile strength of concrete (M30) produced using coconut shell as substitute for conventional coarse aggregate with 0% , 5% , 10% , 15% , 20% , 25% partial replacement in 7 , 14 & 28 days to increase the strength of the concrete Myrobalan powder (Kadukkai powder) is added 30grams for each cube. Three sample cubes are prepared for M30 grade concrete mix for each proportion. Another aim of this study is to spread awareness about use of coconut shell as construction material in civil engineering.

 Abstract

The Rabhas are the native tribe of the village Kodalbasti in West Bengal, India. Kodalbasti falls under the Mendabari Gram Panchayat of Kalchini Block in Alipurduar district of West Bengal. Alipurduar is one of the 18 duars or �gateway� to Bhutan which sustains its culturally diverse population economically by tea industry, tourism and timber. Whole dooar region is considered as the melting pot of India as people from diverse culture have come here in search of employment since the establishment of tea industries. So, it is only natural that due to constant social interaction with such a heterogeneous population, the native of the region will get influenced. And so, have been the case with the native Rabhas of Kodalbasti. Originally, they were animist by religion but since the beginning of 20th century when Christian missionaries came to the region, and with the constant interaction with diasporas Rabhas of Kodalbasti has gone through some serious transition. This paper aim to highlight their exposure with Christianity which over years had proved to be both advantageous and disadvantageous for them. This paper is based on the micro study of Rabhas of Kodalbasti which has been conducted through fieldwork using relevant techniques for data collection.

 Abstract

An experiment was conducted during 2018-19, in field bean crop (Dolichos lablab.) at research experimental plot, RIOF and NSP field, UAS, Bengaluru. Where we have imposed various farming production systems to study the status of rhizosphere microbial population at various growth stages of the crop. The beneficial microbial consortia includes biofetilizers, and Beejamritha was provided externally through the seed treatment application and jeevamritha was provided throughout the crop growth period at 15 days interval. Among the results obtained, the Zero Budget Natural Farming treatment was recorded highest population of bacteria (55X10-5), N fixers (3.4X10-5) and P solubilizers (34.8X10-5). With respect to the population of actinomycetes and fungi it was observed that the highest count was in the treatment of Organic Farming Practice (32.2X10-4) and UAS, (B) Package of Practice (23X10-3) respectively. But in the overall scenario ZBNF has shown the highest count of microbial population in the rhizosphere soil, compare to rest of the farming production systems.

 Abstract

The pandemic situation of COVID-19 led to phases of lockdowns in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India. Everything could wait, but not agriculture. Hence the farmers adopted technology as a resource to overcome the farming challenges that the pandemic situation brought about. With strict norms of social distancing and limited mobility among the population, farmers went ahead to adopt mobile based technology for farm related decisions. The increased number of viral infections of COVID-19 made the farmers to adopt to various existing M-Commerce platforms for the purchase of agrochemicals during the onset of the season of Kharif 2020. The research attempts to study the impact of COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown that followed through, on the adoption of M-Commerce platforms for the purchase of agrochemicals like herbicides, nutrients, fungicides, insecticides and other chemicals for the farming of Kharif crops by farmers of Madhya Pradesh. The research study utilized simple survey of selected farmers who chose M-Commerce as a solution to their buying problems for agrochemicals. M-Commerce, due to its various advantages of being able to access the services from any location by the user, convenience and ease of use, completely abiding to the laws of social distancing and lockdown during the pandemic, grew abundantly amongst the farmers of Madhya Pradesh. The boom of �Digital India� was experienced mainly during this pandemic struck time in the country. This behavioral shift of the farmers can be a potential growth factor of many startups jumping into agrochemical marketing using M-Commerce channel.

Background of the study An intellectually disabled child requires more parental attention and involvement than a normally developing child. The attitude of parents towards their disabled child plays an important role in adaptive skill development in child and improving the quality of life of both parent and child. Objectives of the study The main aim of this study was to assess the attitude of mothers towards care of their intellectually disabled child. Methods A descriptive study was conducted to assess the attitude of parents of intellectually disabled children. 150 parents of children with mild and moderate intellectual disability were selected for the study. The sample was selected with purposive sampling method. The setting of the study was three selected Special schools at Calicut district, Kerala. A demographic questionnaire and a parental attitude scale for problem children by N. Rangaswamy (1989) were administered to assess the attitude of parents towards care of their children. A descriptive statistics was carried out to find out the mean attitude scores of parents towards their intellectually disabled children. Results Majority (81.3%) of mothers spent 4-8 hours per day for their job or house hold works. The time spends for care of their intellectually disabled child was 3-6hours per day by majority (81.3 %) of mothers. Majority (60%) of the children belonged to the age group of 13-17 years. The results showed that majority (46%) mothers having a moderately unfavorable attitude (mean score 42.3 and 36.7 % mothers were having a favorable attitude and 17.3% of mothers having highly unfavorable attitude towards care of their intellectually disabled children. The results showed that there is no association between the gender of child (?2= 4.72), age of the child (?2=1.117) and educational status of the mother (?2=3.84) with parental attitude. There is a significant association found in mother�s occupational status (?2=15.38) and family income per month (?2=12.74) with the attitude of mothers. Conclusion Parental attitude towards care of intellectually disabled children has very important role in the proper growth and development of the child. This study shows that majority of the mothers were having a moderately unfavorable attitude towards their children.
