E-learning plays a significant role in the present educational world today. It has potential to change the whole education system and due to this very reason e-learning�s usefulness and application increased day by day among learners. E-learning attracts systematic methods through inter-related theories in technology, psychology and education to develop its bases, principles, and applications for higher education. The objective of incorporating e-learning in learning in higher education is to increase access and to improve academic achievement. This study evaluates the attitude of engineering students towards e-learning in Bijnor. 200 Engineering students studying at different engineering colleges of Bijnor city were formed the representative sample group for the study. Attitude Towards e-learning Scale by Dimpal Rani was used for data collection. The analysis of the data revealed that most of the engineering students studying in different engineering colleges of Bijnor City had average attitude towards e-learning. The study also revealed that Male and Female, Rural and Urban, engineering students did not differ significantly in their attitudes towards e- learning.

 Abstract

The present paper is an attempt to throw light on ancient Indian textile technology. Reference to the theme is found since the time of Indus Valley Civilization. Clothes were manufactured by dint of a few implements such as spindle whorls, spools, axle of spinning wheel, weaver's shuttle, needles, thimbles etc. A few archaeological sites have been discussed where evidence of cloth was found. On the basis of literary sources and foreign accounts the textile technology has been discussed. References to dress and costumes in general and cloth-cotton, silk and linen-in particular are available from early times. Foreign travellers have stated with hence surprise that the stitched clothes were worn by Indians.

 Abstract

Justice remains an esoteric concept inspite of the significantadvancements in legal literature and theory. Right Punitive approach is the fundamental & most conspicuous way to convince a society that Justice has been delivered to safeguard their faith in constitution and legal regime. Once retribution has been achieved, the convict becomes a delinquent child of the State in need of correction and reformation. The following paper, through various landmark judgments, explores how the Indian Judiciary has sought solution to this basic problem of law and if there exists any common principle of penology which echoes in the spirit of Indian Jurisprudence.

 Abstract

The losses from canals need to be minimized to ensure the efficient performance and effective utilization of water. The seepage loss from the unlined canals can be extremely large, even lined canal never seems to eliminate water loss through side and bottom, but by lining we can reduce the water loss. Seepage and evaporation loss are the major components of water loss from canals. In this project water loss is calculated between the Munak canal and Khubru Head by taking the data of the water discharged from Munak Canal and data of the water reached the final stage i.e., Khubru Head. There were total of seven distributaries and data of rainfall and evaporation were also taken into account while calculating the water and seepage losses.

Indian writing in English has been accredited as an integral and a fundamental constituent of Commonwealth Literature, known for its great vibrancy and resilience. It occupies a prominent place in World Literature Fiction by Indian Women Novelists. Their novels are essentially concerned with the gender discrimination and other problems who are exposed to both physical and psychological abuse and ill-treatment in the male dominated Indian society.

 Abstract

Previously unsolvable cases are now solved easily with the development of the field of medical jurisprudence. It covers in its ambit the provision of evidence for a wide range and scope of cases. Medical certificates are a crucial piece of documentary evidence but are treated as opinions by the Court of laws. The following paper seeks to elucidate on the legal issues involved in using medical certificates as genuine pieces of evidence and how courts have over the years used them to reach conclusions to facilitate justice. We will also shed light on the legal pre-requisites for issuing medical certificates, issued by National and State Medical Councils. These legal guidelines are largely followed today, yet medical certificates continue to be treated as secondary pieces of evidence due to lack of a holistic statute on issuance of medical certificate.

 Abstract

Ultrasonic speeds and isentropic compressibilities of aqueous solutions of Water + 2-methoxyethanol (2ME) + t-butanol have been determined at 298.15 K. The concentrations of t-butanol at which ultrasonic speed becomes maximum and isentropic compressibility becomes minimum are found to decrease with increase in the concentration of 2ME in the cosolvent (Aqueous 2ME). This behaviour indicates that the aqueous ternary solutions are less structured than aqueous t-butanol. This behaviour is also well reflected in the concentration dependence of excess ultrasonic speed and excess isentropic compressibility. This behaviour is explained as due to a decrease in the ability of t-butanol to form clathrate hydrates owing to the presence of 2ME. When the concentration of 2ME in the cosolvent (x2ME) > 0.11, ultrasonic speed decreases and isentropic compressibility increases with concentration of t-butanol indicating that the ternary solution behaving as normal solution where in any further addition of 2ME or t-butanol leads to destabilization of the hydrogen bonded structure of water and t-butanol looses its ability to form clathrate hydrates in aqueous solutions.

 Abstract

While much of Nathaniel Hawthorne's moral universe has traditionally been read through the lens of Puritanical sin, guilt, and allegorical didacticism, this essay proposes a dual theoretical re-reading. Moving beyond static interpretations of conscience, we apply Paulo Freire's concept of conscientization (critical consciousness) alongside Claire Kramsch's framework of symbolic competence to argue that Hawthorne's characters and narrative voice engage in a dynamic, unresolved negotiation with moral meaning. In works such as The Scarlet Letter and "Young Goodman Brown," the protagonist's journey is not toward redemption or damnation, but toward a critical awareness (conscientization) of how social and theological codes produce their own subjectivities (Freire 35). Yet, Hawthorne simultaneously subverts any final, actionable liberation. Instead, his narrators and fallen heroes demonstrate what Kramsch terms symbolic competence: the ability to perceive and position oneself within the inherent ambiguity of multiple, often contradictory, moral systems without collapsing into certainty (Kramsch 251). The researcher contends that the true Hawthornean "moral" is not a lesson in conduct but an aesthetic of ethical hesitation--a symbolic competence where meaning is perpetually deferred, and the real sin is the reification of any single interpretive code. This re-reading releases Hawthorne from the role of moral arbiter and reframes his universe as a proto-modernist theatre of structural critique and semiotic play.

 Abstract

The rapid degradation of the global environment, the intensification of social inequalities, and the far-reaching impacts of industrialization have elevated sustainability to a central position in philosophical, ethical, political, and economic discussions. Corporations, as predominant socio-economic entities, bear substantial accountability for the circumstances that have led to ecological crises and social inequities. This scholarly article investigates the ethical obligations of corporations concerning sustainability through the prism of applied ethics and philosophical discourse. It posits that corporate sustainability ought to be regarded not solely as a strategic business decision but as a moral imperative rooted in deontological, utilitarian, virtue-oriented, and justice-focused ethical paradigms. Through comprehensive discussions, case analyses, and theoretical critiques, the article demonstrates that ethical sustainability necessitates that corporations integrate long-term ecological stewardship, social responsibility, equitable resource allocation, and transparent accountability into their operational principles. The article concludes by proposing a cohesive ethical framework for corporate sustainability and recommends the policy, structural, and philosophical reforms essential for embedding sustainability as a fundamental element of corporate ethics.

 Abstract

The present investigation was carried out at Banana Research Station, Nanded. "Studies on plant geometry and levels of potassium on growth, yield and quality of banana (Musa acuminata L.)", for two trial years. In the present experiment, there were four main treatments of plant density, viz. D1 (1.5 m x 1.2 m), D2 (1.5 m x 1.5 m), D3 (1.5 m x 1.8 m) and D4 (1.5 m x 2.1 m), three sub- treatment of potassium levels, viz. K1 (100 g K2 O/plant), K2 (200 g K2O/plant), K3 (300 g K2O/plant) and thus comprising twelve treatment combinations. From the results obtained in the present investigation, it can be revealed that the treatment D3 (1.5 m x 1.8 m i. e.3703 plants/ha) required minimum days to emergence of inflorescence (246.83) which was at par with treatment D21.5 m x 1.5 m (4444 plants/ha) (247.33). The treatment D4 (1.5 m x 2.1 m i. e. 3174 plants/ha) required maximum days to emergence of inflorescence (257.39) which was at par with treatment D11.5 m x 1.2 m (5555 plants/ha) (252.00). The minimum days to emergence of inflorescence required in treatment K3 (300g K2O/plant) (245.58). The treatment K1 (100g K2O/plant) required maximum days to emergence of inflorescence (257.13). The interaction effects of plant densities and potassium levels on days to emergence of inflorescence of banana found to be non significant.

 Abstract

This manuscript presents a comprehensive, fully rewritten academic review of women's health among tribal communities in India, focusing on maternal health disparities, cultural determinants, structural barriers, and the broader socio-economic context shaping these outcomes. Grounded in evidence from multiple regions and decades of public health research, the review analyzes how geographical isolation, traditional practices, nutritional deficiencies, and limited access to healthcare systems contribute to persistent inequalities. Emphasis is placed on maternal mortality, antenatal and postnatal care utilization, reproductive autonomy, and health-seeking behaviors among tribal women. The manuscript synthesizes academic literature to present a multidimensional understanding of why tribal women in India continue to experience disproportionate burdens of ill health and what interventions may be required to improve outcomes.

Abstract The present study aimed to investigate the differences in emotional competence between only children and children with siblings. The sample consisted of 200 participants (100 males and 100 females) aged between 18 and 20 years, drawn from Pune city, Maharashtra. The 'Scale of Emotional Competence' developed by Sharma and Bharadwaj (1995) was administered to assess emotional competence. Data were analyzed using an independent samples 't'-test to compare the mean scores of the two groups. The results revealed no significant difference in the emotional competence of only children and children with siblings.
