 Abstract

Poultry farming holds a unique place in India's livestock economy. The concept of contract farming has organized the traditional industry into a well-organized sector. The liberal steps taken by the govt on the one hand and the neglection of small-scale, un-regulated local poultry farming sectors of Jammu and Kashmir on the other hand, has somehow preset their declining phase. The local poultry farming sector of Nowshera has declined by 60 %. The removal of J&K special entry tax on broiler alive, high rates of poultry chicks and feed, absence of organized market regulating body, lack of govt support and non-availability of funds are some of the factors responsible. However, demotivation of the newer interests in the sector is the major area of concern.

Technology integration in education has become a key factor in educational reform across the globe. The New Education Policy (NEP) of 2020 in the Indian context is a ground-breaking plan that anticipates a thorough change of the educational landscape with technology at its core. This abstract explores the mutually beneficial relationship between technological integration and the NEP 2020, detailing the goals, plans, and expected results of the policy. The NEP 2020 adopts a learner-centric philosophy that takes into account the evolving requirements of the twenty-first century. It aims to develop an inclusive, adaptable, and technologically driven educational ecosystem that accommodates various learning preferences and encourages the development of critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving abilities from an early age. This abstract looks at how technology might help with these goals by facilitating personalised learning opportunities, adaptive assessments, and data-driven decision-making. In addition, the NEP 2020 encourages the creation of digital infrastructure, guaranteeing universal access to technology. In order to improve accessibility and eliminate linguistic obstacles, the strategy promotes the production of digital material in a variety of Indian languages. Platforms and tools for educational technology (EdTech) are essential elements that give teachers new ways to distribute content and engage students in active learning.

 Abstract

Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) are the backbone of modern semantic image segmentation systems. Recent studies have shown that enhancing DCNNs with fully connected Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) significantly improves the accuracy of object localization, but dense CRF inference is computationally expensive. We propose to replace fully connected CRFs with Domain Transformations (DTs). This can be a present day edge-preserving sifting strategy where the sum of smoothing is controlled by a reference edge outline. We appear that space change sifting is a few times quicker than thick CRF induction and yields comparable semantic division comes about that precisely capture question boundaries. Importantly, our formulation allows us to learn a reference edge map from DCNN intermediate features, rather than using image gradient magnitudes as in traditional DT filtering. Generate task-specific edges in a consistently trained system to optimize the quality of semantic target segmentation.

 Abstract

The politics of South Asian states has always attract the foreign policy exports towards it. Due to it's Volatile Nature. Though once upon a time these states were part of colonial empires but after getting freedom from their colonial masters forgetting their common history they rather focused on common geography for their unilateral development. This States has witnessed many war and conflicts between themselves on issues of border tensions. The recent one addition to the area of conflict is water. In one sentence it can be said the South Asia is swinging towards a future water war. The growing population and rapid industrialization has forced the state in this region to have a special look on transborder water resources. Lack of proper management system and wellbalanced treaties or negotiation mechanism has created the stage for a future intense war. From the Helmand to the Mekong, all the transborder rivers are now bone of conflicts between the developing countries of South Asia. India being situated at the heart of South Asia and a prime member of SAARC and ASEAN has always finds itself in the both side of water politics. Sometimes it has shown it's Big Brother attitude and sometimes it has become a victim of it. Presence of aggressive China and assertive Afghanistan and Pakistan is always a cause of concern for other peace-loving states in this region. Though there are many treaties on sharing of water between States but these are not sufficient and some among them has lost their relevance in 21st century with passing of times and situation. Now time has come that this state should develop a clear stands on the water issue to avoid the future mutual destruction. Being a leading country of South Asia and emerging actor of global politics India's foreign policy should also focusing on it in a serious manner.

 Abstract

The present study was aimed to establish the information on the growth rates of L. vannamei for one crop in ponds with low saline with low stocking, low saline with high stocking and high saline with low stocking, high saline with high stocking densities. The average values of pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen, ammonia and temperature in ponds with low saline and low stocking density were 7.92, 5, 5.4, 0.44 and 28.5 respectively. Whereas in ponds with low saline and high stocking density were 7.91, 6, 4.6, 1.0, and 28.9. Similarly the average values of pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen; ammonia and temperature in ponds with high saline and low stocking density were 8.31, 20, 4.9, 0.61, and 28.6 respectively. Whereas in ponds with high saline and high stocking density were 7.89, 18, 5.13, 0.66 and 28.2. It is evident from the present results that, the stocking density has inverse proportion with the growth. Low stocking density favors the production. In contrary high stocking density leads to lower the production rate.

 Abstract

This complex network has been organized in three sequential and overlapping steps. The first step of the inflammatory phase is an immediate response to injury; primary sensory neurons sense injury and send danger signals to the brain, to stop bleeding and start inflammation. The following target of the inflammatory phase, led by the peripheral blood mononuclear cells, is to eliminate the pathogens and clean the wound. Once this is completed, the inflammatory phase is resolved and homeostasis is restored. Phytochemical studies carried out on the Phragmites karka plants have demonstrated a wide variety of the biomolecules present in the plants which may be responsible for their use in traditional medicine. Through various bioassays, different biologically active compounds were identified. Since bioautography was used to monitor the wound healing activity of the extract, this shows that bioassays can be used as a guide during isolation. Although a p-coumaric acid compound isolated in this study was not identified due to a contaminant, this study shows that there is a biologically active compound belonging to the phenolic derivative. Which may be unique Further work is required to identify the specific phenolic and to determine if it is indeed unique and a good candidate for the treatment of infected wounds.

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Good health can also be maintained by maintaining good hygiene as it is a series of practices performed to maintain health. Personal hygiene refers to maintaining bodily cleanliness. Hygiene activities can be grouped into the following groups: home and daily hygiene, personal hygiene, medical hygiene and sleep hygiene. Maintaining hygiene is very important in everyday life, as is menstrual hygiene, because proper menstrual hygiene can prevent infections, reduce odor, and help you stay comfortable during your period. You can choose many types of menstrual products to absorb or collect blood during menstruation, such as menstrual cups, menstrual pads, and menstrual underwear. A woman should wash her hands before and after using a menstrual product and should properly dispose of used disposable menstrual products by wrapping them in toilet paper, tissue or other material. Menstrual products should not be flushed down the toilet. If a woman uses sanitary napkins, she should change them often, whether the flow is heavy or not, and if it is heavy, change it more often. Tampons should be changed every 4 to 8 hours. One tampon should not be worn for more than 8 hours etc. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM A study to assess the acceptance and practice of menstrual cup versus conventional method for menstrual hygiene among women in reproductive age in selected village of Gurugram, Haryana."

The present study is carried out on "Extraction of oil from wood apple seeds and to study the properties of wood apple seed oil". The goal of the current study is to characterize the physical and chemical properties of wood apple (Limonia acidissima L.) seed oil, as well as its fatty acid composition, tocopherols content, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Cholesterol and Thymol content. By using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the fatty acids in seed oil are examined, and they contained oleic (23.89%), gamma-linolenic (9.23%), and linoleic acid (16.55%), while the quantity of saturated fatty acids is 32.15%, including palmitic acid (18.52%) and stearic acid (9.02%). The seed is excellent for nutritional and industrial applications since it contains more unsaturated fatty acids (50.19%) than saturated fatty acids (32.15%). Tocopherols, which are regarded as natural antioxidants, are detected in higher concentrations (54.33 mg/100 g).Cholesterol is absent in wood apple seed oil. Thymol is 20.41 mg according to GC-MS analysis. On the basis of the study it is found that the seed oil is an excellent source of organic compounds. It has a lot of health advantages. All the physicochemical properties were qualitatively evaluated in MIT-CARS Center For Analytical Research And Studies which is NABL accredited Laboratory.

 Abstract

At present air pollution is a serious problem for human beings. The ambient air pollution creates so many health hazards on human body. Indoor and outdoor pollutants specially suspended particulates matter (SPM) is associated with the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The findings that link acute increases in urban air pollution to the short-term effects on people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are consistent. Beyond the immediate consequences, a pertinent public health and scientific topic is how much long-term exposure to air pollution contributes to deteriorated lung function and the onset of COPD. The few cross-sectional studies found that the more polluted locations had higher rates of self-reported chronic bronchitis and emphysema diagnoses, as well as worse lung function levels. Air pollution is usually concentrated in densely populated metropolitan areas, especially in developing countries where environmental regulations are relatively lax or nonexistent. This paper presents a review of influence of urban air pollution on lung health especially chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Kolkata.

 Abstract

As a result of the growing amount of waste that people are producing every minute, the world's growing garbage problem poses major hazards to human life. Only in India, almost 0.2 million tons of trash are produced each day. Due to India's lack of a widespread separation mechanism, the majority of rubbish cannot be rectified with a viable solution. In certain cities, only rage pickers can separate rubbish, but they can't do it completely. As only 30-40% garbage is separated daily. Because some wastes, such as dangerous chemical waste, medical waste, floating waste, etc., cannot be manually separated, it is necessary to separate the waste in a way that is secure, forgiving, and automatic. Therefore, aim of the paper is to present a smart, which is capable of separating wastage image dataset from kaggle.com using image processing techniques. The .NET system is a image processing framework based on the module the software is an image classification algorithm machine learning process. The project's ultimate goal is to separate garbage into four major categories: paper, food waste, plastics, and metals. The proposed CNN image segmentation & object detection based, after processing and segmentation is done, it separates waste into degradable and non-degradable waste.
