 Abstract

Abstract The Rohini festival in Purulia, West Bengal, marks the ceremonial onset of Aman paddy cultivation, a monsoon-dependent rice crop critical to the region's agrarian economy. This study examines the festival's cultural, ecological, and socioeconomic dimensions, emphasizing its role in fostering community resilience, traditional ecological knowledge (TEK), and sustainable agricultural practices. Through ethnographic insights, historical analysis, and ecological perspectives, the article argues that Rohini embodies a synthesis of cultural heritage and agrarian sustainability. It highlights how rituals, gender roles, indigenous practices, and the celestial significance of Rohini Nakshatram shape rural livelihoods while addressing modern challenges such as climate change and rural migration. This work underscores the festival's relevance for sustainable development and cultural preservation in agrarian societies.

 Abstract

Language serves as the primary medium of human communication, inherently reflecting shifts in social structures and cultural dynamics. The advent of the Internet, as a manifestation of scientific and technological advancement, has given rise to a distinctive linguistic phenomenon--Internet language--whose influence is particularly pronounced in the development and transformation of vocabulary. As digital communication becomes increasingly embedded in everyday life, the boundaries between formal and informal language use are continuously reshaped. This paper explores the evolving trajectory of Chinese vocabulary through the lens of Internet language, examining how online discourse not only introduces new lexical items but also reshapes existing linguistic norms and expressions.

 Abstract

On July 1, 2017, India implemented the Goods and Services Tax (GST), which marked a significant shift in the country's taxation system. GST was intended to replace a fragmented and confusing tax structure, creating a single national market, increasing tax compliance, and stimulating economic growth. This paper examines the impact of GST on India's economic growth, looking at its prospects, problems, and possible future choices. The study investigates the positive effects of GST, such as increased tax collection, reduced tax evasion, and improved trade efficiency through the removal of interstate obstacles. It also addresses the significance of GST in encouraging economic formalization and boosting business convenience, hence it's making India a more appealing investment choice. However, the paper identifies several barriers in fully realizing GST's potential, including the complexity of the multi-slab tax structure, the increased compliance burden on small businesses, technological issues in the GST network, and regional disparities in implementation. Furthermore, the paper discusses the adverse effect on specific industries, particularly SMEs, who confront difficulties in adapting to the new system. The research continues by suggesting future possibilities for improving GST efficacy, such as streamlining tax slabs, upgrading digital infrastructure, and giving sector-specific help. By resolving these concerns, India can maximize the benefits of GST while promoting long-term inclusive economic growth.

The immigration is a problem of worldwide. No country is free from the immigration. As such, Assam is not left as a free state from illegal immigration. Assam is a naturally rich state located in North-Eastern India. The state has been suffered with the large number of immigration from the neighboring countries since the period of British. Since 1971, the huge large number of illegal immigration from Bangladesh influx into the state has flooded the population of Assam. Thus, it has deep negative impacts on the social, political, economic and security of Assam, and become a very much concerned issue of Assam. It is also created a big challenge in the mind of indigenous people in the arena of social, political and economy. Therefore, in this paper an attempt is being made to understand the negative impact of large number of illegal immigration in the society of Assam.

 Abstract

This experimental study aims to assess the levels of examination anxiety among secondary school students. The research was conducted with a random sample of 40 students from 9th grade of DAV Public School. For this study, various socio-demographic variables were considered, including age, gender, residential status (hosteller/day scholar), type of family (nuclear/joint), area of residence (urban/rural), parental education, and parental occupation. Each variable was categorized accordingly for detailed analysis. For the analysis, frequency and percentage distributions were calculated with the help of the Test Anxiety Scale (TAS) developed by V.P. Sharma (2009). Later, the Chi-square test was also calculated to check the association between these variables. As per the test scores, it came out clearly that there is a difference between levels of examination anxiety and socio-demographic variables. In continuation to the above, a pre-anxiety test was also conducted before the intervention, which was followed by relaxation therapies, further to which there was a post-anxiety test. The data was analyzed using frequency and percentage. Null hypotheses were examined accordingly. H0: There will be no significant difference between socio-demographic variables and levels of examination anxiety. In this scenario, the result was that the hypothesis was rejected. H1: There will be no significant association found between the socio-demographic variables and levels of examination anxiety. In this case also the result shows that the hypothesis was rejected. H2: There will be no significant difference observed between pre-test and post-test scores and level of examination anxiety. Here also the hypothesis was rejected.

INTRODUCTION: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is preventable and treatable disease characterised by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation that is due to airway and/or alveolar abnormalities usually caused by significant exposure to noxious gases and particles. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of pursed lip breathing vs positional relaxation along with pursed lip breathing on shortness of breath and respiratory rate in patients with acute exacerbative COPD. MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY: In this study patients included both male and female between the age group 50 and greater than 50 years were recruited for the study. Total 36 patients were selected and were divided among two groups. Pursed lip breathing was given to one group and forward trunk lean position along with pursed lip breathing were given to another group. Pre and post measurements of of shortness of breath and respiratory rate were taken. The collected data was statistically analysed for finding. RESULT: The result of the study showed that both Pursed lip breathing and positional relaxation along with Pursed lip breathing are statistically significant in reducing shortness of breath and respiratory rate in acute exacerbative COPD patients. But Positional Relaxation along with pursed lip breathing showed more significant results than Pursed lip breathing exercise. CONCLUSION: Based on study results it can be concluded that positional relaxation along with pursed lip breathing was found to be more effective than Pursed lip breathing exercise in reducing shortness of breath and respiratory rate in acute exacerbative COPD patients.

 Abstract

Mitochondria, the energy-producing organelles in cells, have their own maternally inherited DNA, and mutations in this mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can lead to severe genetic disorders. Mitochondrial Replacement Therapy (MRT), an advanced form of in vitro fertilization (IVF), offers a way to prevent the transmission of these mutations. Techniques like spindle transfer (ST), pronuclear transfer (PNT), and polar body transfer (PBT) involve replacing the nucleus of a mother's egg containing faulty mitochondria with that from a donor egg containing healthy mitochondria. These methods can be applied either before or after fertilization. One such method, ooplasmic spindle transfer (OST), pioneered by Dr. John Zhang, led to the birth of the first healthy baby using this technique. The UK and Australia have established clear regulatory frameworks for MRT, while countries like India are still navigating the cultural and ethical implications. Despite rapid technological growth, societal resistance in India poses challenges to adopting such reproductive innovations. This article focuses on the potential of MRT in India, its techniques, ethical concerns, and global experiences in implementing this promising therapy.

Abstract: : A simple, precise, and accurate stability- indicating rear phase high- performance liquid chromatographic( RP- HPLC) system was developed and validated to graphy for the contemporaneous estimation of Captopril and Hydrochlorothiazide in bulk and combined lozenge form. The chromatographic separation was achieved using a C18 column with a suitable mobile phase composed of( insert exact composition, e.g., acetonitrilebuffer( pH 3.0) in a defined rate), at a inflow rate of( insert inflow rate) mL/ min and discovery wavelength at( insert discovery wavelength, e.g., 220 nm). The system was validated as per ICH guidelines for parameters including linearity, delicacy, perfection, particularity, limit of discovery( LOD), and limit of quantification( LOQ). Forced declination studies were conducted under colorful stress conditions like acid, base, oxidation, thermal, and photolytic to establish the stability- indicating nature of the system. Both medicines were well resolved with satisfactory retention times, and no hindrance from declination products was observed. The developed RP- HPLC system proved to be dependable, robust, and suitable for routine quality control analysis of Captopril and Hydrochlorothiazide in both bulk medicine and pharmaceutical phrasings.

 Abstract

Upon examining all facets, including the laws and policies established by the government for individuals under the age of 18 or those who have not yet reached the age of majority, it is indeed feasible to rehabilitate them. Children who are accused of offenses can certainly be reintegrated into society. As established by law, individuals under 18 years of age are classified as minors, indicating that they have not yet attained the level of maturity necessary to distinguish between good and bad, as well as right and wrong. This indicates that they lack a sufficient understanding that would enable them to comprehend not only the legal implications but also the ethical considerations. Overall, they do not possess the knowledge required to lead a peaceful, virtuous, and religious life, which is essential for fostering good faith and developing the understanding necessary for a meaningful existence.

 Abstract

Growth in online education has made knowledge more widely available, but with that comes a navigation and summarizing challenge. This research hence proposes a system implementing web data extraction blended with generative AI for the automated extraction and summarization of educational material from institutional websites. Using BeautifulSoup for text extraction and the Gemini AI API for abstractive summarization, given a target URL, the system returns a very brief summary of the web content in an educational context. It has a modular architecture consisting of three components: data extraction, summarization, and a user interface implemented in Flask. Performance evaluation on 100 educational web pages shows steady extraction with an F1-score of 0.80 and a summarization quality that outperforms general-purpose tools. A user study with 150 participants reports a high satisfaction rate, thereby improving accessibility for students, educators, and researchers through a scalable and inclusive solution.

Abstract The Smartphone is the trend that has experienced rampant expansion; its influences on transforming lifestyles of students across the globe have been tremendous. This has led to the initiation of academic performance and mental issues, whereas the usage of such devices has encouraged communication and simplified information attainment. Many researchers note that overuse of Smartphones among the students is occurring ever more widely and commonly known as nomophobia, the fear of being without a mobile phone. It has been demonstrated that protracted exposure to electronic gadgets and cell phone addiction are related to short attention capacity, low scholastic performance and inefficient thinking. High smartphone use is also associated with stress, anxiety, depression, sleeping disorders, and social isolation among the school-going children at the mental level. The propositions on the mentioned effects are mostly attributed to adolescents and the young adults, who are more vulnerable to overexposure since they are in the stages of development. The evidence emphasises the relevance of the more balanced use of Smartphone and the application of the strategy of digital wellness in the educational institutions. Digital detox plans (involving consciousness and counselling services) have been found to hold promise. Besides, the policy-level solutions like the ban on the use of smartphones during school hours and promotion of healthy digital social patterns should be provided in order to mitigate these adverse effects. Adoption of a multi-stakeholder model that involves teachers, parents, and policymakers is necessary in achieving a healthier student-technology relationship

 Abstract

Academic performance in higher education is shaped by a complex mix of academic and demographic factors. This study explores the underlying dimensions influencing student performance among undergraduate engineering students in South India through structured statistical techniques. A sample of 2,000 students was analyzed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Factor Analysis to reduce dimensionality and uncover latent variables. The Bartlett's Test of Sphericity and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure confirmed the data's suitability for these methods. The analysis identified a small number of components--primarily related to academic engagement and past performance--that explain a significant proportion of the variance in student outcomes. Visual tools such as scree plots, biplots, and parallel analysis were used to aid interpretation and to guide the number of factors retained. The results offer valuable insights for academic institutions aiming to improve student support services and educational planning through evidence-based interventions.

Abstract Background of the study: The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is a vital preventive measure against cervical and other HPV-related cancers. Despite its proven efficacy, global uptake remains suboptimal due to various social, cultural, and systemic barriers. Objectives: This meta-analysis aims to synthesize global literature to explore public perceptions and identify key barriers influencing HPV vaccine uptake. Methods: A systematic search was conducted across databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar for studies published between 2010 and 2024. Inclusion criteria were observational or interventional studies reporting on public perception, attitudes, and barriers to HPV vaccination. Data were extracted and analysed using random-effects modelling and thematic analysis for qualitative synthesis. Results: Thirty-five studies from 23 countries were included, encompassing over 85,000 participants. Positive perception and vaccine acceptance were highest in high-income countries with robust school-based immunization programs. Key barriers included lack of knowledge (72%), fear of side effects (61%), cost (48%), religious or cultural objections (36%), and misconceptions linking the vaccine to sexual activity (54%). Healthcare provider recommendation strongly influenced uptake. Conclusion: Improving awareness, addressing cultural sensitivities, and strengthening healthcare provider communication are crucial to enhancing global HPV vaccine uptake. Multi-level interventions are necessary to overcome these persistent barriers.
