Abstract: Rishi Reddi's short story "Bangles", from her collection Karma and Other Stories (2007), explores the complex dimensions of diasporic identity through the experiences of an Indian widow navigating between tradition and modernity. This paper examines how the story reflects the psychological, cultural, and emotional dislocations that accompany migration and generational transition within the South Asian Diaspora. By employing a diasporic lens, this paper sheds light on the themes of cultural displacement, hybridity, and the search for identity in the story. It also foregrounds the generational and gendered dimensions of migration, as the protagonist's return to India signifies not a resolution but a re-negotiation of identity. It narrates the tale of an elderly woman named Arundhati who has travelled to the United States to live with her son and daughter-in-law. Migration leaves certain consequences as it finds difficult for her to cope with the socio-cultural changes she has to undergo. In this new land she feels uncomfortable and, in a way, gets disrupted by her belief system. At the end, she has to sacrifice her foremost possession - bangles

 Abstract

Background: Sthoulya, described in classical Ayurvedic texts under Santarpanottha Vyadhi, corresponds to obesity in contemporary medicine. It results from excessive accumulation of Meda Dhatu due to improper dietary habits, sedentary lifestyle, and Kapha predominance. Obesity is a global health concern associated with metabolic disorders such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. Ayurveda emphasizes the use of Medohara and Lekhana therapies for the management of Sthoulya. Objective: To evaluate and compare the efficacy of Guduchyadi Kashaya and Varadi Kashaya in the management of Sthoulya with reference to obesity. Methods: A prospective comparative clinical study was conducted on 40 patients diagnosed with Sthoulya. Patients were randomly divided into two groups with 20 patients in each group. Group A received Guduchyadi Kashaya and Group B received Varadi Kashaya. The treatment duration was 30 days. Assessment was carried out using subjective parameters such as Atikshudha (excess hunger), Daurgandhya (body odor), and Dourbalya (weakness), along with objective parameters including Body Mass Index (BMI), body weight, waist circumference, and waist-hip ratio. Results: Both groups showed statistically significant improvement in symptoms of Sthoulya. However, Group B (Varadi Kashaya) showed comparatively better reduction in BMI, body weight, and waist-hip ratio compared to Group A. Subjective symptoms such as Atikshudha and Daurbalya were also markedly reduced in both groups. Conclusion: Both Guduchyadi Kashaya and Varadi Kashaya are effective in the management of Sthoulya. Varadi Kashaya demonstrated comparatively better results in reducing anthropometric parameters and improving clinical symptoms. Hence, it can be considered an effective Ayurvedic formulation for the management of obesity.

 Abstract

Crime analysis and prevention is a systematic approach for identifying and analyzing patterns and trends in crime. Our system can predict the type of crime activity which have high probability for given location in terms of latitude and longitude and date and also we can visualize crime prone areas. With the increasing advent of computerized systems, crime data analysts can help the Law enforcement officers to speed up the process of solving crimes. Using the concept of data mining we can extract previously unknown, useful information from an unstructured data. Here we have an approach between computer science and criminal justice to develop a data mining procedure that can help solve crimes faster. Instead of focusing on causes of crime occurrence like criminal background of offender, political enmity etc. we are focusing mainly on crime factors of each day.

The present study aimed to compare body image, resilience, and psychological well-being among gym-going individuals and yoga practitioners. The research examined the effects of various physical activities on both psychological health and self-image of people who took part in different types of exercise activities. The study used a comparative research design to gather data from 200 participants who included gym-goers and yoga practitioners through standardized questionnaires that assessed body image and resilience and psychological well-being. The researchers used descriptive statistics and independent samples t-test and correlation analysis to examine the data that they had collected. The research found that gym users and yoga practitioners had identical results on body image and psychological health which showed both activities produced equal effects on their self-perception and mental well-being. The research found that yoga practitioners had superior resilience skills whereas gym members showed lower levels of resilience. The analysis found that body image and resilience and psychological well-being showed no significant relationships. The research shows that physical activity helps improve psychological health while yoga practice particularly boosts people's ability to handle stress and control their emotions.

Abstract This paper explores the theme of dystopia, surveillance and political control in George Orwell's classic works, 1984 and Animal Farm. The research discusses how Orwell criticizes totalitarian regimes, manipulation of ideology, and institutional oppression through a comparative thematic analysis as in 1984 a dystopian society where people are continuously monitored, ideology is controlled, and history is rewritten, and in Animal Farm, the emergence of tyranny and distortion of the revolutionary ideals is allegorized. The methods of control that Orwell questions in the paper are propaganda, manipulation of truth, and comments on individual autonomy. Uniting the academic insights, the analysis focuses on the timelessness of the Orwellian thought in the interpretation of both past and present expression of the authoritarian power[1].

 Abstract

Every country in the world takes special care of the protection of Human Rights and Education of the children because today's children determine the future of the country. But the reality is that children are abused and tortured in various ways in all countries. According to UNESCO data, about 29 million 60 thousand children in India have been orphaned and abandoned in various ways. The United Nations has sought to strengthen the protection of the Human Rights and Education of the children through the Millennium Development Goals and Sustainable Development Goals. Naturally, India's population will continue to increase in the coming days, and if awareness is not raised now regarding the protection of the Human Rights and Education of the children, India's proper development will face multiple obstacles. Our country, India, has undertaken multifaceted initiatives for the protection of the Human Rights and Education of the children. Significant contributions to the fields of child protection of the Human Rights and Education in India are evident through the initiatives of both government and private organizations. In post-independence India, no significant state initiatives were observed regarding the protection of Human Rights and the expansion of their education. However, subsequently, India enacted a series of laws by the constitution aimed at ensuring Human Rights protection and promoting their Education. In the context of the Indian Constitution, the extent to which India has adopted and implemented programs in the field of Human Rights and Education has been analysed in this article.

Manual screening is time-consuming and ineffective because recruitment procedures frequently require evaluating a large number of resumes. The Automated Resume Analyzer for Job Recommendations, a system intended to streamline and expedite the hiring process, is presented in this paper as a solution to this problem. Important data, including personal information, education, experience, and skills, is automatically extracted from candidate resumes by the proposed system. In order to provide the candidate with appropriate job recommendations, the extracted data is subsequently examined and compared with open positions. Users can upload digital resumes to the system, which then parses and organizes pertinent information in a structured format. The system highlights missing skills that might be necessary for particular roles and recommends suitable job opportunities based on the identified skills and qualifications. This method offers candidates better job guidance and increases the effectiveness of resume screening. Standard web technologies and database support are used in the system's implementation to guarantee accessibility and usability. The suggested approach shows how automated resume analysis can enhance candidate-job matching and support hiring procedures.

 Abstract

This paper proposes an integrated dual module system developed to enhance agricultural resource management as well as economic planning. In this regard, the initial module is primarily focused on smart irrigation systems via IoT technologies, which entail soil moisture sensors, temperature sensors, as well as humidity sensors that monitor environmental conditions in real time. This information regarding environmental conditions is then processed via a microcontroller-based control unit that automates irrigation scheduling via set threshold values. The second module employs Machine Learning methods to predict prices of agricultural commodities. Historical datasets of the agricultural market are processed and analyzed using Machine Learning predictive methods such as Random Forest Regression and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). Even though Random Forest Regression offers high accuracy in regression tasks, LSTM methods show promise in handling temporal dependencies in time-series patterns of price fluctuations. Experimental studies show that high reliability in predictions will be achieved, thus helping the farmer take decisions to store crops, transport, and sell them at appropriate times to achieve maximum profit. By integrating intelligent irrigation management with data-driven price predictions, the proposed system will enable the implementation of precision agriculture techniques, thus ensuring sustainable water management

 Abstract

The judicial system in India is supported by district courts. They are on the spot where the great majority of citizens - persons on either side of criminal charges, civil actions, family law suits, land cases, and labour suits - are in fact brought to face with the law. They are also, and as a result, where the pledge or the failure of the legal help is most palpably experienced. The national-level data on the legal aid delivery though helpful in the aggregate level hides the real picture on the ground which is exploited in a daily basis in the main civil courts and sessions court in the six hundred and odd districts in India. The paper will conduct a narrow evaluation of the legal aid services in the form of the district court setting, wherein the evaluator will examine the institutional processes by which the aid is administered, the demographic composition of the recipients of the aid, the quality of the offered representation, and the result that the affected litigants gain in comparison to the result that the persons who hire private counsel would get. Based on the empirical data that is available, reports by judicial committees, evaluation by the civil society, and an analysis of the current statutory and regulatory framework, the paper determines the main gaps between the system in its design and the system in its reality. It claims that district courts, specifically due to the volume of issues comprising legally and economically vulnerable individuals, must be the center of serious attention to any effort undertaken to enhance the delivery of legal aid in India, and that such reform at the level is necessary to consider quality, accountability, infrastructure, and the social barriers to service access by eligible persons who are legally entitled to receive the service.

 Abstract

By applying the intersecting theory of trauma and the study of memory, this paper will argue that Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is a powerful type of ethical witnessing of the Biafran war. Going beyond traditional historical narration the paper attempts to understand how Adichie portrays war not as a chronological chain of events, but as a discontinuous experiential reality of loss, displacement and psychological cataclysm. Based on trauma theory, the paper examines formal strategies in the novel such as nonlinear structure, silence, and repetitions as the manifestation of the belated and disruptive quality of traumatic memory. It also shows how individual memory, group memory, and narrative reconstruction challenge detected histories and recover the lost experiences through the prism of memory. The main thesis pr'poses that the storytelling in the novel Is an ethical gesture: it testifies to suffering but requires the reader to take part in the ethical aspects of violence and historical displacement. Placing fiction as the location where memory and testimony meet, the paper aims at adding to the body of postcolonial trauma studies by demonstrating how literary accounts transform historical knowledge and establish other archives of war.

Abstract Background: This research article provides a longitudinal analysis of India's industrial production landscape over four and a half decades, from 1981 to 2025. The study leverages a unique dataset comprising annual production indices for a vast array of select industrial items, compiled by the Government of India across three base years (1972-73, 2004-05, and 2011-12). Objective: The primary objective is to identify and analyze the long-term trends, structural shifts, and growth trajectories within key industrial sectors--Primary Goods, Capital Goods, Intermediate Goods, Infrastructure/Construction Goods, and Consumer Goods--in the context of India's evolving economic policies. Methodology: The study employs a mixed-method approach. Quantitative analysis includes calculating Compound Annual Growth Rates (CAGR) for different sectors and time periods to quantify performance. Qualitative analysis contextualizes these quantitative trends within major historical and policy milestones, such as the 1991 economic reforms and recent initiatives like "Make in India." Data visualization techniques, including line charts, bar charts, and comparative tables, are used to illustrate trends and facilitate comparative analysis. Findings: The analysis reveals a clear evolution of Indian industry. The post-liberalization era (post-1991) marks a significant inflection point, with most sectors exhibiting accelerated growth. Capital goods and consumer durable industries, in particular, demonstrate a robust response to economic openness and rising domestic demand. The most recent period (2012-2025) shows continued expansion, though with sector-specific variations, including a notable shift in the energy mix and the meteoric rise of electronics manufacturing and telecommunications equipment. Conclusion: Indian industrial production has undergone a profound transformation, moving from a regime of moderate, regulated growth to a period of dynamic expansion driven by liberalization, globalization, and technological advancement. The long-term trend is one of robust growth and increasing diversification, positioning India as a significant global industrial player. However, challenges related to data comparability and sectoral volatility persist.

 Abstract

The efficacy and clinical importance of Phatak's repertory lie in its ability to streamline the prescribing process, ensuring a more precise similimum by reinforcing the credibility of the symptom totality. Central to this homeopathic approach are modalities--the specific factors that trigger an increase or decrease in symptom severity--which serve as indispensable elements in determining the correct medicinal match. Modalities are modifiers of symptoms and form a significant part of the homeopathic totality. They provide a solid basis for prescription as patients often accurately observe factors that aggravate or ameliorate their condition.

 Abstract

Economic thoughts, principles and ideologies took their birth during the Vedic period (1200-400 BCE), a millennium before the Greek writings of Plato and Aristotle. Economic thoughts are reflected in many of the ancient Indian texts which spoke about the importance of wealth as a source of happiness and satisfaction, consumption, savings and investment etc. This Paper outlines the significance of economic principles and philosophy of one such Indian text, "The Arthashastra", an ancient classic, written by an indigenous unparalleled thinker, Chanakya who lived during fourth century BCE. Although Adam Smith, the Scottish thinker is said to be the father of modern economics, it was Chanakya who is well known as Kautilya, who advocated the various aspects of political economy, two millennia Prior to Smith. The Study attempts to bring to light the significance of ancient ideologies and principles of Chanakya as discussed in 'Arthashastra' in the modern contemporary age. The paper also presents a comparative analysis of the theoretical framework of classical and Keynesian schools of thought with Kautilya's ideologies.

Abstract Background: Family planning plays an important role in improving maternal and child health. Vasectomy is a safe, simple, and effective permanent method of male sterilization. However, its acceptance in India remains low due to lack of knowledge, misconceptions, and cultural beliefs. Assessing the knowledge and attitude of husbands regarding vasectomy is essential to promote male participation in family planning. Objectives: 1. To assess the knowledge regarding vasectomy among husbands of postnatal mothers. 2. To assess the attitude towards vasectomy among husbands of postnatal mothers. 3. To find the association between knowledge and attitude with selected demographic variables. 4. To develop a pamphlet based on the findings to improve awareness about vasectomy. Methods: A descriptive research design was adopted for the study. The study was conducted in a selected hospital of Durg District, Chhattisgarh. The sample consisted of husbands of postnatal mothers selected through non-probability convenient sampling technique. A structured knowledge questionnaire and a Likert attitude scale were used to collect data. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Results: The findings revealed that the majority of participants had moderate knowledge regarding vasectomy, while a considerable proportion had inadequate knowledge. Attitude towards vasectomy was found to be moderately favorable among many respondents. A significant association was observed between knowledge level and selected demographic variables such as education and occupation. Conclusion: The study highlights the need for educational interventions to improve knowledge and positive attitude toward vasectomy among husbands. Educational pamphlets and awareness programs can play a significant role in promoting male participation in family planning.

 Abstract

Creativity is not limited to artists, writers, novelists, or musicians. It is a fundamental human capacity--the ability to generate ideas, expresses emotions, and approach situations in new ways. Whether through journaling, cooking, problem-solving at work, or redecorating a room, creative acts shape how we experience the world. Increasingly, research in psychology and neuroscience suggests that creativity is closely entangled with mental wellbeing, influencing how we manage stress, build resilience, and cultivate meaning. Increasingly, psychological research shows that creativity is deeply connected to mental wellbeing--not just as a form of self-expression, but as a powerful tool for emotional regulation, resilience, and personal growth. The study reveals the relationship between creativity and mental wellbeing of teacher trainees. An exploratory, analytical and evaluative research approach has been applied. Data was collected from trainee teachers throughout their performance, activities and/or face to face & interview method during their training course.
