 Abstract

In India, women account for almost one-third of the working population. The majority of these women are employed in unorganized and informal sectors of the economy, such as construction, agriculture, and domestic labor. The bulk of workers in the domestic services sector are, in particular, women and young girls. The current study intends to empirically investigate the nature of labor interactions between paid domestic workers and their employers as perceived by the former. It attempts to take a closer look at the general working conditions of domestic workers as well as the issues and challenges they encounter on a daily basis. Further, the research aims to eventually examine how the life trajectories of female part-time, live-out domestic workers are built by focusing on their nature of employment arrangements and experiences in workplace conditions. The study largely contextualizes domestic work relations in India as a domain of continuing and ongoing power struggle, drawing extensively from feminist theory. Using in-depth, semi-structured interviews with fifteen female domestic workers from Kerala's Thiruvananthapuram district, the researcher sought to realistically illustrate how the world of domestic work still remains an extremely unequal, deeply structured, and intricately stratified terrain characterized by the intersecting hierarchies of caste, class, gender, and religion.

 Abstract

The biggest danger to sustainable agriculture is plant viral infections, which can cause multiple losses. Numerous viruses are affecting a variety of crops, thus new methods that can accurately identify the causative agents of viral infections are more and more needed for their efficient treatment and prevention. Numerous diagnostic techniques that are more sensitive and specific in identifying unidentified plant viruses are constantly being researched and developed. Controlling plant viral infections requires an early and precise diagnosis of these infections. For purposes of assembly, reproduction, intra- and intercellular mobility, and attracting vectors for dispersal, viruses depend on their hosts. Several viruses require chloroplasts to replicate. A crucial part of plant physiology, photosynthesis, is hampered when viruses multiply in chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are present in plants which is very essential for the replication of viruses. Some viruses replicate in chloroplast. When viruses replicate in chloroplast they inhibit the photosynthesis process, which is a very important process in plant physiology. This viral infection reduces the quality of crop yield, stunts crop growth, and results in low-quality products. To overcome this condition or this viral infection in plants use different techniques like PCR and ELISA. Many techniques are effective and can provide accurate identification of the viral causative agent. There are continuously developed new techniques for the detection method of viruses present in plants which have improved sensitivity and specificity. Assays utilizing enzyme-linked immunosorbents (ELISA), are created using the serological approach and are routinely utilized. However, ELISA's capacity to identify plant viruses is limited by factors including the target virus's antibody availability and the length of time needed to conduct the ELISA. Originally designed as a method for amplifying target DNA, the polymer chain reaction (PCR) has evolved into numerous variants and is now more sensitive than ELISA. Numerous plant virus detection systems, including those based on immunological detection, PCR technology, and hybridization-based techniques like microarray, microscopic method, visual inspection method, dot stain immune binding assay nucleic acid-based method, etc. are described here

 Abstract

In a well - organised society, the responsibility for efficiently managing the nation, fostering societal development, and ensuring citizens have essential resources for survival lies with the State and the Government. Paramount tasks of the State include upholding law and order, preventing crimes, and safeguarding citizens from both internal and external threats. This is achieved through defence forces like the army and law enforcement agencies such as the police, which are authorised to use lethal force and weapons when necessary. These forces strategically, offensively, and tactically stay ahead of potential adversaries in their various operations. The term 'weapon' encompasses items such as guns, firearms, armaments, ammunition, and other defence equipment designed to cause destruction, damage, pain, or harm. These tools are typically associated with warfare, conflicts, crimes, defence, law enforcement, and hunting, among other purposes. Due to the State's responsibility for maintaining law and order, citizens are generally restricted from owning or possessing a firearm for any purpose. Laws in most countries regulate matters such as ownership, sale, manufacturing, transfer, modification, and use of firearms by civilians. These laws are often stringent to prevent violent crimes, shootings, murders, suicides, and, most importantly, to curb armed rebellions, insurgencies, and terrorist activities within the state. India, for instance, has stringent regulations regarding firearms governed by The Arms Act, 1959, supplemented by The Arms Rules, 2016. This legislation prohibits the sale, manufacture, possession, acquisition, import, export, and transport of firearms and ammunition without a licence. The current Arms Act, 1959, traces its origin back to The Indian Arms Act, 1878, enacted during British Rule after the Revolt of 1857. Thus, this paper aims to outline the types of guns that are illegal or prohibited to be acquired, the eligibility criteria to obtain a licence, the steps involved in acquiring a firearms licence, when could a licence be revoked or cancelled, what are the penalties for owning a firearm without licence, what is the current position of laws and a way ahead from the current scenario.

 Abstract

This study aims to gather and document information on indigenous knowledge of medicinal plants used in rural areas of Mahabubnagar district of Telangana State. The survey identifies 40 species of 36 genera of medicinal plants belonging to 21 families by indigenous people in rural areas of Mahabubnagar district for the treatment of different illness. The indigenous knowledge of medicinal plants depends on the surrounding plants. During the process of civilization and urbanization many medicinal plant species have been lost. The majority of the medicinal plants are locally available and are cultivated by tribal and rural people. Leaves, flowers, fruits and roots are principal part of the plants used. The indigenous community of Mahabubnagar district such as konda reddy, koyas, nayak, savera, valmikies and vaideyas played an important role healing different diseases by using medicinal plants locally available. The indigenous knowledge of the medicinal plants of these ethnic people is mostly confined to older people. This knowledge is transferred to trial and error basis and still in use. The oral route was the most commonly used mode of administration of herbal medicine. Occimum sanctum, Aloe vera, Withania sonifera, Mucuna pruriens, Acorus calamus, Comiphora weighti, Veronia amygdalina, Cleodendron myricoides are most repeatedly claimed medicinal plants of these people. The indigenous knowledge of the medicinal plants should be restored and maintained, as this provides large data regarding the medicinal properties of plants not known to the modern men.

Citrus sinensis is one of the most abundant citrus species consumed. Orange peels and seeds are a waste by-product of the fruit and may potentially contain useful phytonutrients with biological relevance. Fresh and dry peels of sweet orange were subjected to Maceration. Total alkaloid, flavonoid and tannin content were determined using standard methods. Antimicrobial activities against five bacterial strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium) and three fungal strains (Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger and Penicillium notatum) was carried out by observing the zone of inhibition using disc diffusion method. The total alkaloid, flavonoid and tannin content was higher in the fresh peel extract compared to the dry peel extract. Antimicrobial activities revealed that the fresh peel extract had better antibacterial activities against all bacterial strains and one fungal strain studied compared to the dry peel extract. Growth of Aspergillus niger and Penicillium notatum were however better inhibited by the dry peel extract than the fresh peel extract This study investigated the phenolic content and antimicrobial activities of fresh and dry Citrus sinensis peel extracts. The results from the study conclude that the fresh Citrus sinensis peel extract contains more phenolics and possesses better antimicrobial activities against the studied microbial strains compared to the dry peel extract. The findings in this study suggest that drying plant parts before extraction for phytonutrients may lead to loss of active phytochemicals.

 Abstract

One of the oldest and most important industries is agriculture. The demand for work and food is rising due to the world's population growth. Because traditional farming methods are insufficient, new automated ways of achieving food requirements are being developed. In several regions of the nation, the growing demand for water has raised serious questions regarding the viability of irrigated agriculture. Therefore, one of the most important practical concerns for increasing the effectiveness of water utilization in irrigation systems is determining crop water demand. Some areas of a field receive unneeded irrigation from the current sensor-based systems, leaving other areas without any irrigation at all. Artificial intelligence (AI) has been employed extensively in farming recently. AI technology is being used in agriculture to improve soil and growth conditions, produce healthier crops, evaluate data for farmers, and perform various jobs related to food supply chain management. AI-powered technologies will help farmers increase crop quality and yield more with less resources. Farmers can obtain information on the health of their crops, including the amount of water and nutrients needed to boost yield quality and quantity, by using an AI-powered health monitoring system.

In this study, radiation shielding of different materials such as piperidine alkaloids Pseudopelletierine (GS1) Pelletierine (GS2) Ricinine (GS3) Methylisopelletierine (GS4) Coniine (GS5) Piperine (GS6) , is analyzed by calculating Mass attenuation coefficients and partial photon interactions theoretically at incident photon energy 1 keV to 100 GeV using XCOM software [1]. The values of these parameters have been found to change significantly with incident photon energy and composition of the piperidine alkaloids. Half value layer (HVL) and tenth value layer (TVL) has also been calculated; whose lower value reveals the good shielding ability for gamma rays. Hence it is concluded that GS6 shows the maximum shielding effectiveness and also GS1 and GS4 seem to have good radiation shielding. It is also analyzed that our calculated mass attenuation coefficient of NBS concrete by the present method are in excellent agreement with standard values given by ANSI/ANS-6.4.3 data.

Wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) has emerged as a promising technique for fabricating complex geometries with metal materials. In this study, the focus is on the optimization of process parameters in WAAM of 304L stainless steel, a widely used material in various industries. Optimization of process parameters is usually aimed at improving mechanical properties and quality of the fabricated parts while minimizing defects such as porosity and distortion. In this article, we focus on predicting and optimizing process parameters for the WAAM process of 304L stainless steel. Three parameters: voltage (U), welding current (I), and travel speed (v), were considered as the input variables, and the two geometrical responses considered are width and height (WWB, HWB, respectively. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine the impact of each input variable on the replies. The Grey-Relational Analysis (GRA) method was employed to determine the ideal process parameters. The collected results indicate that travel speed is the most significant influence on WWB and HWB. The GRA gives the exact stable process parameters, namely U = 15V, I = 75A, and v = 0.2 m/min, which were confirmed by experimental results. It was also shown that the anticipated models of WWB and HWB were suitable for choosing the process parameters in particular applications.

 Abstract

The lexicon of privacy, autonomy, and constitutional morality has been crafted by the Supreme Court in recent times. This evolution has led to the recognition of various entitlements such as the right to privacy and the right to select a life partner. In the Navtej Singh Johar v. Union of India case, which upheld the decriminalization of same-sex relationships, the Supreme Court delineated a detailed account of the right to intimate relations. The current study posits that the subsequent logical progression should be the establishment of marriage equality, where same-sex marriage/relationships are acknowledged on an equitable basis with traditional opposite-sex marriage. The essential legal components for such acknowledgment are already in position. The study argues that confining marriage to 'one man, one woman' constitutes impermissible sex discrimination under Articles 14 and 15, 19 & 21 of the Indian Constitution, and is evidently arbitrary. Furthermore, the article recognizes the notion of constitutional morality, which supersedes social or popular morality when construing public morality as a constraint on fundamental rights. This notion can be utilized to counter arguments that same-sex marriage undermines the sanctity of traditional opposite-sex marriage. The study also contends that 'one man, one woman' violates the right to privacy and autonomy, as well as the right to a life with dignity under Article 21. It also encroaches upon the freedom of expression, which encompasses the expression of sexual orientation. Even in instances where personal laws do come into effect, marriage equality should not be perceived as a transgression of religious freedom based on the significantly weakened 'essential religious practices' test.

ABSTRACT This quantitative research investigates the impact of rights issues on the share price performance of PTC Industries Ltd and Bhagiradha Chemicals & Industries Ltd over a 90-day period surrounding the announcement dates. Utilizing secondary data from reliable financial sources, the study employs statistical tools like descriptive statistics, risk-return analysis, and Cumulative Abnormal Returns (CAAR) to analyze trends before and after the rights issue announcements. Findings indicate that PTC Industries witnessed a significant increase in returns with a mild rise in risk post-rights issue, suggesting a lucrative opportunity with manageable volatility. In contrast, Bhagiradha Chemicals experienced a sharp drop in returns and a substantial increase in risk, indicating a less favorable investment environment. Rights issues positively impacted PTC Industries' share price performance, as evidenced by a significant increase in CAAR, while Bhagiradha Chemicals displayed a positive but muted effect, possibly influenced by investor concerns. The study concludes by emphasizing the divergent outcomes and underscores the nuanced nature of the relationship between rights issues and short-term market dynamics, advocating for rigorous research and risk management for optimal returns.

 Abstract

INTRODUCTION : Anterior shoulder dislocation frequently causes bone loss on the anterior aspect of the glenoid with fracture of the posterosuperior aspect of the humeral head, known as Hill-Sachs deformity. Glenoid bone loss decreases the glenohumeral contact area which increases joint instability and the possibility of further dislocation. Plain CT scan of the shoulder allows us to evaluate the glenoid cavity and its rim, and 3-D reconstruction allows both the radiologist and the surgeon to visualise the defect on a bony model. The evaluation helps the surgeon to select the most appropriate treatment. AIMS & OBJECTIVES: To determine the percentage of bone loss using 3 dimensional CT. To study degree of accuracy of preoperative CT imaging in relation to surgical intervention and findings. RESULTS & DISCUSSION In this study, indicators of bone loss was evaluated using 3-D CT only, as bone margins are easily identifiable with 3-D imaging. All the patients underwent CT scan with additional scanning of opposite shoulder joint for comparison. Patients were evaluated for Glenoid Index & percentage bone loss and were subsequently subjected to Arthroscopic surgery or Open Bankarts repair accordingly. In this study, most of the patients had right shoulder involvement (86.7%) compared to the left (13.3%). Out if 30 patients 8 patients had fracture of the interior glenoid. In our study of 30 patients, 11 patients(36.7%) were calculated to have a percentage bone loss of more than 25% and 19 patients(63.3%) had a loss of less than 25%. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION To conclude, Glenoid index as calculated from the 3-D CT scan accurately predicted the surgery required to the surgery performed when compared retrospectively. The 3-D CT scan can therefore be used by surgeons as an additional diagnostic tool for preoperative planning and patient counseling.

 Abstract

Rebel Nazrul is a poet of humanism, a saint of liberation of human spirit. The inhuman oppression of the ruling class on the subjugated nation, the context of the anti-revolutionary repression, inspired by his humanism, helped the poet to turn his mind towards the contemporary Russian revolution. Patriotic Nazrul left his studies for the sake of humanity and accepted the First World War soldiership of No. 49 Bengali Platoon in 1917. During his stay in Karachi and various barracks during the war, Habildar Nazrul was inspired by the international consciousness after hearing about the success of the November Revolution and the resistance of the Red Army. His direct experience of this period is expressed in poems like 'Shat-il-Arab', 'Ranaveeri', 'Antar National Sangeet' etc., as well as in the instinctive stories 'Byathar Daan' 'Henna' 'Rikter Bedan'. And this manifestation of patriotism in the arena of his patriotism in detail is also reflected in the international consciousness.

 Abstract

Pelletization is a process of agglomeration that converts fine powders or granules of bulk drugs and excipients into small, free flowing, spherical or semi-spherical units, known as pellets. Pellets are multiparticulate drug delivery system which suitable for promising and highly flexible system with various kinetics of drug release such as immediate release, sustained and controlled release which are easy to formulated. In order to eliminates the physicochemical interaction such as drug-excipient or drug-drug interactions multiparticulate dosage forms such as pellets can be implemented. Nowdays The process of pelletization as oral drug delivery system are gaining substantial attention. They form small spherical or semi-spherical free flowing solid units varying from 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm. Pellets are commonly used as multiparticulate systems as it has clinical as well as technical benefits as compared to single unit dosage forms. Pellet mainly for oral administration which can be further formulated into several other dosage forms such as tablets, capsules or can be administered as such. Oral administration has become the most versatile, convenient and common route of drug administration which ultimately focuses on patient compliance in present time. The present review focuses on process of pelletization, advantages, disadvantages, theory of pellet growth and formation, pelletization techniques, characterization of pellets, and also the recent approaches for pelletization techniques.
