Indian spices are popularly known for their flavour and aroma in domestic as well as in the international markets. Out of the total spices production, Indian households consume about 70-75 per cent either in whole form or in value added form (powder or masalas), 5-10 per cent is utilized by oleoresins, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics companies, 15-20 per cent is exported and the remaining 5 per cent goes for seed purposes (www.commodityindia.com). Increased production and trade balance in terms of export and import are required to support economic growth through agriculture. The present study focused on analysing the growth and instability in area, production and exports of major spices from India. The results showed that India's overall export and agricultural export both increased at 6.50 and 6.16 per cent annual growth rate from 2010-11 to 2019-20, respectively. India's agricultural export share to overall export has grown from 9.71 per cent in 2010-11 to 11.40 per cent in 2019-20 while Ginger, garlic and turmeric, these three spices contributed 58.99 per cent share to total spice production from 19.16 per cent area. Among different spices cumin, chilli and coriander emerged as the first, second and third most grown spices in the country with 29.56, 14.44 and 12.25 per cent area and 9.01, 18.19 and 6.92 per cent production share to total spices respectively.

In 2016, India became the world’s major fastest growing economy leaving behind China.[1] India was growing at a steady rate of more than seven per cent till the Bharatiyia Janta Party (BJP) government introduced certain policies such as demonetisation initiative and Goods and Services Tax (GST) that severely impacted its economic growth. Since mid-2016 its economic growth started to decelerate and in 2019, India’s economic growth stood at 4.5 per cent even though Modi made tall promises of making India a US$5 trillion economy by 2024. Hence, by using the Keynesian Model of Growth, this paper tries to analyse the performance of Indian economy under Modi’s government, determine the cyclical, structural and global factors that have contributed to India’s slowed economic growth and the impact of Modi’s extremist policies on the Indian economy. This paper identifies demonetisation, GST reforms, falling private consumption, protectionism and strict labour laws and COVID-19 pandemic as the factors behind India’s slowed economic growth under the current regime of Modi.

India’s poultry industry represents a major success story. Mounting at about 20 per cent annually the domestic poultry market is currently estimated at about Rs 49,000 crore, and production reaching a record 3.2 million tons of broiler meat and about 2.86 million tonnes of eggs. Layer production growth is estimated at 6 per cent annually. Indian processed poultry production is not expanding at the rate of the live-bird market due to cold chain capacity issues and meat retailing constraints. The processed poultry market is thus mainly oriented to serving hotel, restaurant and institutional consumers. Thus an emphasis is made to capture the potentiality of Poultry industry and its opportunities in Indian market.

Indian poultry industry has found to be more structured and evolved as a dynamic organization in last two decades. Planning, organizing, directing, monitoring and controlling can profoundly be seen. Indian poultry industry contributes significantly to total livestock sectors contribution to India's GDP. India's poultry meat production is 3.4 million tons and its eggs production is sixty-five million tons and industry ranks second and third in worlds ranking in meat and eggs production respectively (FAO). The data was collected from stakeholders with the help of pretested interview schedule. The separate interview schedule was prepared for broiler farmers (100 samples), breeder farmers (10 samples) and processing cum distribution centers (20 samples). The study revealed that the majority of the poultry farmers, 63 per cent were aged between 35 to 54 years. Young generation farmers, aged between 20 to 34 years, 37 per cent, seemed lesser interested in poultry farming. In addition, women farmers were on only 3 per cent out of total sample farmers surveyed. It is indicative of the need for the promotion of poultry farming as a source of women empowerment. Almost 81 per cent farmers stated that poultry farming is their main occupation and major source of income where they have fulltime business commitment. Among the sample farmers, majority of, 52 per cent, were new entrant. The majority of farmers, 54 per cent, were rearing 5000 to 9999 birds at their farm and they were classified under medium-sized poultry farms. The average area of small farms was 2785.71 sq. ft., medium farm was 5886.89 sq. ft. and large farms was 18403 sq. ft. All the sample farmers had permanent housing (100 per cent) with pucca flooring (90 per cent). Almost 81 per cent farmers had their poultry shades in agriculture farms.

The paper examines 13021 Indian publications on mobile research during 2007-16,as covered in Scopus database. The Indian publications were downloaded using a search strategy which uses the search term ‘mobile*’ in the two tags, namely ‘keyword tag’ and ‘Article Title tag’ and restricting it to the India in ‘country tag’ and period 2007-16 in ‘date range tag’. The Indian mobile research output experiencing an annual average growth rate of 22.64 per cent, global share of 5.88 per cent, citation impact of 2.11 and international collaborative publication share of 11.28 per cent during 2007-16. Computer Science, among subjects, contributed the largest publication share (74.61), engineering (38.32%), mathematics and social sciences (6.94% and 6.54), etc. during 2007-16. Amongst14 subfields identified in India’s mobile research, mobile networks contributed the largest publication share (53.19%), followed by mobile telecommunication systems (35.09%), Mobile communication (29.22%), mobile ad hoc networks (26.86%), mobile security (20.62%), etc. The most productive 20 Indian organisations and authors together contributed 25.64 per cent and 5.11 per cent share to the overall publications output of India in mobile research during 2007-16.The top 20 journals contributed 23.0 per cent share to the Indian journal output during 2007-16. Only 14 publications have registered citations from 109 to 548 and these together received3259 citations, with 232.79 citations per paper. Conclude that India is still not a leading country in the world on mobile research both in terms of quantity and quality of research. In view of strategic and global importance and to increase the research output and quality, the Indian Government needs to identify this area as one of the national priority area, involving much larger R&D investments and trained manpower and also increase international collaboration with leading mobile research hubs.

ABSTRACTMalaysia became an independent nation in 1957 and has grown dramatically in prosperity since that time. The main groups in this ethnically diverse nation are Malays (65 per cent) Chinese (26 per cent) and Indians (7.7 per cent). Sixty per cent of the population are Muslim which is the official religion of the nation. Christians represent about 9 per cent of the population and there are 80,000 Anglican members. There has been political pressure against Christians in recent years and there is growing concern about the position of minority religious groups. Anglicans came with the British, though indigenous mission was the work of Indian and Chinese Christians. Theological education is mainly focused on the Seminari Theoloji Malaysia where a holistic curriculum has been developed. A sense of Anglican identity is developing in relation to the context in Malaysia but this has hindered clarity on the nature of the Anglican heritage. The challenges facing the Anglican Church in Malaysia are identified.

Full textAbstract:
The study aims to make an assessment of COVID-19 on Indian economy by analysing its impact on growth, manufacturing, trade and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) sector, and highlights key policy measures to control the possible fallout in the economy. The impact of the pandemic across sectors and in different scenarios of complete, extended and partial lockdown, and at different levels of capacity utilization is massive on the Indian economy. India’s economy may barely manage to have a positive growth of 0.5 per cent in an optimistic scenario but also faces the possibility of a 3–7 per cent negative growth in worst case scenarios for the calendar year 2020. The impact is severe on trade, manufacturing and MSME sectors. The likely impact (deceleration) of COVID-19 from best case scenario to worst scenario are as follows: manufacturing sector may shrink from 5.5 to 20 per cent, exports from 13.7 to 20.8 per cent, imports from 17.3 to 25 per cent and MSME net value added (NVA) from 2.1 to 5.7 per cent in 2020 over previous year. The economy is heading towards a recession and the situation demands systematic, well targeted and aggressive fiscal-monetary stimulus measures.

Full textAbstract:
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are backbone of India’s manufacturing industry and play an important role in India’s stable money supply growth. There are more than billions of SMEs in India, with an investment of more than 1 billion rupees. The sector has recorded strong growth during past fiscal years and contributes approx. 6.11 per cent to country’s manufacturing GDP and 24.63 per cent of the GDP from service activities as well as 33.4 per cent of India’s manufacturing output. Approximately 70 per cent of employment growth comes from Asian MSMEs, which account for 90 per cent of Indian industrial companies and 40 per cent of manufacturing value added. India is estimated to have more than 13 million SMEs with 42 million employees. For these reasons, it is very important for these companies to invest in their intellectual property (IP). By introducing unique brand and product names, each retailer can ensure the high replacement cost and market position of its products and/or services. IP and its worth are usually neglected. IP is a major aspect in daily business practices in an increasingly knowledge-based sector. New technologies, brands and innovative designs are introduced to the market nearly every single day, as a result of human continual innovation and creativity. As a result, the necessity of intellectual property rights to MSMEs in product development as well as some success stories is reviewed in this manuscript. This article also showed how IP has evolved into a business tool to counter the challenge that MSMEs confront in applying the IP system.

Full textAbstract:
The MSME sector occupies a position of strategic significance in the Indian economic structure. This sector contributes nearly eight per cent to country’s GDP, employing over 80 million people in nearly 36 million widely-dispersed enterprises across the country; accounting for 45 per cent of manufactured output, 40 per cent of the country’s total export, and producing more than 8000 valueadded products ranging from traditional to high-tech. Furthermore, these enterprises are the nurseries for innovation and entrepreneurship, which will be key to the future growth of India. It is also an acknowledged fact that this sector can help realise the target of the proposed National Manufacturing Policy to enhance the share of manufacturing in GDP to 25 per cent and to create 100 million jobs by the end of 2022, as well as to foster growth and take India from its present two trillion dollar economy to a 20 trillion dollar economy. Despite the sector’s high enthusiasm and inherent capabilities to grow, its growth story still faces a number of challenges. In this light, the present paper examines the role of Indian MSMEs in India’s economic growth and explores various problems faced by the sector. The paper also attempts to discuss various policy measures undertaken by the Government to strengthen Indian MSMEs. Finally, the paper proposes strategies aimed at strengthening the sector to enable it to unleash its growth potential and help make India a 20 trillion dollar economy.

Full textAbstract:
India’s health care infrastructure has not kept pace with the economy’s growth. Today only 25 per cent of the Indian population has access to allopathic medicine, practiced mainly in urban areas. Rural India’s health is supported, not always adequately, by the government’s National Rural Health Mission (NRHM). This study proposes a model for distributing free medicines to villages. Medicines, a few months before their expiry dates, normally wasted, would be obtained from urban stockists/chemists. Pharmaceutical companies, by giving their consent, could partner with the model. The transfer of drugs to rural India would be via the widespread Indian postal network. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs), postal employees and trained NRHM personnel would mobilize the model. Such a public–private partnership brings together members of civil society (e.g., NGOs), public sector (e.g., government agencies) and private sector (e.g., pharmaceutical companies) to fund, coordinate and drive the model, addressing the gaps in rural access to health care.

In 1882, the Turtle Mountain Chippewa Reservation was created which was 500,000 acres, or twenty-two townships. Suddenly, in 1884, the Turtle Mountain Chippewa Reservation was cut down to approximately 476,000 acres, or twenty townships without warning. The total land holdings of the Turtle Mountain Chippewa people in 1884 were ten million acres or approximately 1/10 of North Dakota. But by 1892, their total land holdings were down to thirty four thousand acres, or two townships. In 1882, a traditional tribal government whose hereditary leader had been head chief since 1863 conducts Turtle Mountain Chippewa affairs. However, in 1892, a native committee appointed by a federal Treaty Commission becomes the recognized government body of the Turtle Mountain ChippewaThe Turtle Mountain Chippewa are still today the most prominent of the Plains Chippewa tribes in America, having today's membership and affiliates numbering nearly eighty thousand people. As we shall see, the Turtle Mountain Chippewa were also affiliated with the ethnically European and Indian mixed Métis people, who constitute the largest indigenous group in Canada, and will suffer because of their conflicts between nationality and Canadian and American federal policy. Due to an influx of new evidence, and using quantitative and qualitatitive methodologies combined with analysis of primary and secondary sources, this (dissertation) will contribute to the public record and change previous interpretations concerning the creation of the Turtle Mountain Chippewa Reservation in the 1880s, and final settlement treaty between the United States and the Turtle Mountain Chippewa Indians of North Dakota in 1892. Through letters, journals, manuscripts, as well as other miscellaneous works such as newspaper articles and literary books, a thesis framework will be constructed to put some never before revealed information in a proper historical context.Whether or not Little Shell III was the undisputed head chief of the Turtle Mountain Chippewa and that his being deposed by a faction within his own tribal government was wrong or illegal by the tribe or the federal government, is not an objective of this paper. Instead, this historical revision of the pivotal events of the 1880s and 90s will show that Little Shell III's tenure as a head chief among the Turtle Mountain Chippewa will depict a leader who operated within a chieftain's parameters to mediate disputes and competently represented his diverse tribal membership to outsiders. The failure or lack of success in achieving the goals for all of the people at the Turtle Mountains cannot be a condemnation of his abilities considering that success for Little Shell by the 1880s depended upon fair and equitable treatment by the American federal government. Much of the history during the time from 1882 - 1892 has been misinterpreted by historians until now, it is imperative to proceed carefully with the new information and lay a solid groundwork for further study. Nevertheless, this work will charge the U.S. government for fraud against a peaceful defenseless people, and destroying their traditional leadership structure as well.

O presente trabalho aborda aspectos ligados à cosmovisão, às representações e às práticas rituais e sociais existentes na comunidade "Céu do Mapiá", sede do Centro Eclético de Fluente Luz Universal Raimundo Irineu Serra (CEFLURIS). O CEFLURIS é uma entidade espiritualista, fundada em 1974 por Sebastião Mota Melo, o Padrinho Sebastião, que promove o uso religioso e ritual do "Santo Daime". O "Santo Daime" é uma substância sagrada, elaborada a partir do cozimento ritual das plantas Banisteriopsis Caapi, o cipó "Jagube", e Psichotria Viridis, a "folha rainha".O trabalho compara o uso do "Santo Daime", com o uso indígena de "substâncias sagradas " da região e de outras partes do planeta, em especial as elaboradas a partir da Banisteriopsis, com objetivos divinatórios, revelatórios e terapêuticos, identificando o grupo como campo de emergência de uma "práxis xamânica", de contato com o mundo espiritual. A esta configuração xamânica associa-se a noção de "ecletismo", ou seja, a abertura da cosmologia daimista a contribuições de outras exegeses espiritualistas e/ou esotéricas, o Kardecismo e a Umbanda, entre outras. Por fim, estabelece como o saber xamânico que acompanha as"substâncias sagradas", manifesta-se, em forma de "práxis" num contexto não-indígena.

Full textAbstract:
A partir du cas des Indiens des établissements français de l'Inde, admis à l'électorat politique en 1848 bien que régis par un statut juridique distinct de l'état civil français, la thèse réfléchie sur les conditions mises à l'accès et à l'exercice des droits de citoyen sous la IIIe république. Elle dégage ainsi un modèle républicain du citoyen, fondé non pas sur le droit inaliénable des individus à être représentés dans l'espace politique, mais sur l'adhésion aux valeurs de l'état républicain. Cette adhésion les Indiens doivent la prouver, non seulement en renonçant à leur statut personnel pour l'état civil français, mais en satisfaisant encore à des critères de capacité censés établir la sincérité de leur renonciation : les renonçants doivent encore être diplômés de l'université ou des grandes écoles, ou bien avoir servis l'état comme magistrats ou fonctionnaires, être décorés ou avoir exercé un mandat électoral et, toujours lire et écrire le français. Ces critères fondent un véritable sens civique. Son imposition permet à la république aux colonies de ne pas fonder l'accès à la citoyenneté sur le seul critère de l'origine. Mais de fait elle ferme aux colonisés la possibilité d'accéder jamais à une représentation politique. Alors qu'avec la proclamation du suffrage universel l'ordre social apparaissait subordonné à sa constitution politique comme ordre légitime, désormais il conditionne la production de ce dernier. L'ordre social ainsi réifié dans l'ordre politique, c'est toute une construction nouvelle qui se déploie progressivement dans l'espace colonial. A la politique d'assimilation se substitue la politique d'association, plaçant en son centre non plus le citoyen, mais le fonctionnaire colonial, pensé et présenté comme l'incarnation même de l'état républicain et de ses valeurs. Au droit se substitue le devoir, au politique, la morale, à la liberté politique, la nécessité naturelle. (Doc Thèses)The present thesis takes, as a starting point, the case of the natives in the French settlements of India who were granted the right to vote in 1848 although their juridical status was different from the French civil status. From this case a reflexion is led on requirements for acquiring and exercising the rights of citizen under the case republic from which emerge the outlines of the republican model of the citizen, based on adherence to the values of the republican state and not on the inalienable right of the individuals to be represented politically. Indeed the Indians had to display their adherence not just by surrendering their personal status in favour of the French civil status, but also by fulfilling capacity criteria supposed to establish how sincere their relinquishment was. Furthermore the surrenders had either to be college or university graduates, or to have served the state at magistrates or civil servants, or to have been decorated or to have held an electoral mandate and in all cases to be able to read and write French. Those criteria are the basic of the civic census. The implementation of the latter enables the republic in the colonies not to base access to citizenship on the sole criterion of the origin, but at the same time it bars the colonized peoples from ever acceding the political representation. While the proclamation of the universal suffrage seemed to mean that the social order was subordinate to its political constitution as legitimate order, it now conditions the production of the latter. The social order having therefore been reified in the political order, a whole construction progressively unfolds over the colonial space. The policy of assimilation is substitued for that of association, no longer centered on the citizen, but on the colonial civil servant, conceived and presented as the very incarnation of the republican state and of its values. Right is substituted for duty, ethic superseded politics, and natural necessity takes the place of political liberty

Full textAbstract:
The present dissertation is a translation and analysis of the chapter on anumāna in Vallabha’s Nyāyalīlāvatī, based on certain theoretical considerations on cross-cultural translation and the understanding of tradition. Adopting a non-essentialized and non-historicist conceptualization of the Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika/Navya-nyāya tradition, the work focuses on a reading of the anumāna chapter that is particularized and individualized. It further argues for a plurality of interpretative stances within the academic field of Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika/Navya-nyāya studies, on the grounds that the dominant stance has narrowed the scope of research. With reference to post-colonial theory, this dominant stance is understood in terms of a certain strategy called “mimetic translation”.
The study of the anumāna chapter consists of three main interpretational sections: translation, comments, and analysis. The translation and comments focus on understanding issues internal to the Nyāyalīlāvatī. The analysis focuses on a contextual interpretation insofar as the text is understood through reading other texts within the Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika/Navya-nyāya discourse. The analysis is further grounded in a concept of intertextuality in that it identifies themes, examples, and arguments appearing in other texts within the discourse. The analysis also identifies and discusses Cārvāka and Mīmāṁsaka arguments within the anumāna chapter.
Two important themes are discerned in the interpretation of the anumāna chapter: first, a differentiation between the apprehension of vyāpti and the warranting of this relation so as to make the apprehension suitable for a process of knowledge; second, that the sequential arrangement of the subject matter of the sections within the chapter, vyāptigraha, upādhi, tarka, and parāmarśa, reflects the process of coming to inferential knowledge.
The present work is a contribution to the understanding of the post-Udayana and pre-Gaṅgeśa Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika/Navya-nyāya discourse on inferential knowledge and it is written in the hope of provoking more research on that particular period and discourse in the history of Indian philosophies.

Full textAbstract:
The hash economic conditions in Zimbabwe, marred with perpetual cash cri- sis, little to no foreign direct investments (FDI's), high unemployment rates, absence of the Central Bank roles and local currency has piqued my interests to study the long-run relationship of capital market indices and macroeco- nomic variables, in such conditions. The literature review analysed dierent research work that were done in health economics about the same subject but with dierent variable matrix structure and methods. Most of the stud- ies conrmed the short/ long-run relationship between capital market indices and macroeconomic variables. An ARDL method was employed on the subject matter, and interesting re- sults were obtained that are at variance with most of the existing empirical results in the literature. For example, most of the studies conrmed a signi- cant relationship between the exchange rate, interest rate and stock index but this research showed otherwise. Moreover, this work lled the existing gap in the literature on the relationship between the mining index and macroeco- nomics variables. Furthermore, it has been noted that consumer price index and exchange rates have a negative long-run relationship with the mining index. A way for further research of this nature in countries with the same or similar economic conditions as of Zimbabwe has been set in motion and needed for an abstract conclusions on the variations noted by this work.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractFifty-four per cent of India’s population is under 25 years of age and, as per the 2011 Population Census, close to 34 per cent of India’s rural population belonged to the age group 15–34. While the presence of a sizeable young population is believed to offer a demographic dividend, policy efforts to realize the dividend have not met with success. Poor prospects for livelihoods within agriculture, its declining importance as a sector in the national economy, and aspirations of rural youth and their parents to find futures in nonfarm sectors suggest that, like elsewhere, agriculture today is an unlikely option for the young in India. The chapter brings the question of youth in agriculture into focus. Despite a large share of rural youth involved in farming, there is limited research or policy attention on the issues and challenges that they face around farming, non-farm opportunities, succession, and intergenerational transfer of resources and knowledge. It makes the case for improving the livelihood prospects within agriculture in a context of changing youth aspirations. We argue that a clearer understanding of the issues is essential to frame a nuanced approach to support the role of youth in agriculture and the role of agriculture in youth livelihood strategies.

In 1947, about 15 per cent of the Indian workforce was engaged in activities outside manufacturing and agriculture, many of them in the three modern activities, plantations, mines, and banks. Chapter 7 shows that, like large-scale industry, these enterprises used new organizational forms, had global connections, and attracted investment from Europeans and Indians. Many business houses had investments spread over industry, mines, plantations, and banks. Like large-scale industry, mines and plantations processed natural resources available cheap in India.

This chapter examines the trajectory of income and wealth inequality in India. There has been secularly rising inequality. From the ‘bottom’ 50 per cent of the above-20 working age, and even the next 40 per cent, that is, all but the top 10 per cent, increase in income inequality is clearly observed using data from 1980–81. Though all income groups in India experienced real income growth, the rate went up more rapidly for higher income groups. China experienced even more rapid overall growth but suffered from the same challenge of growing inequality. Available analysis reveals that inequality increased within Indian states, between rural and urban areas, and within urban areas. Wealth inequality also increased as it did in China and Russia. The top 1 per cent experienced higher wealth growth. India’s Human Development Index (HDI) rank remained unchanged between 2015–19 while China improved by five and Brazil worsened by five. India made progress in components of the HDI, Multi-dimensional Poverty Index that imposes further conditions on deprivation, and Severe MDP, but cross-country comparisons reveal it has fallen behind comparable countries. It has to catch up if it were to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of ‘leaving no one behind’ by 2030.

India has one of the most rapidly ageing populations on the planet. There is concern that this rate of population ageing, coupled with the decline of extended families, decreasing fertility rates, increasing life expectancy, widowhood, singlehood or strained intergenerational relationships, will have a negative impact on the availability of (family-based) care for older adults in India, resulting in poorer health and well-being. However, India is a complex and diverse country made up of different states, castes, cultures, and ethnic groups. Moreover, rates of population ageing are not uniform as Indian states are at diverse levels of demographic transition and vary to a great extent in their cultural practices, social norms and socio-political contexts. Indeed, while India’s older adult population has now risen to 8.57 per cent, in states such as Goa and Kerala the percentage of older adults is as high as 11.20 per cent and 12.55 per cent respectively. This introduction provides an overview of these issues by situating the subsequent chapters within the broad demographic trends already mentioned and gives an outline of the structure and chapters of the book. This chapter introduces the need for focus on living arrangements and care and highlight the social, economic and cultural contexts that shape the provision of care for older adults in India.

Abstract India, with a population of nearly 846 million according to the 1991 census, is the second most populous country in the world. Its land area of 3.23 million km2 forms only 2.4 per cent of the total land on planet earth. Separated from central Asia by the Himalayas, it is dependent on the monsoon winds originating in the Indian ocean for rainfall which has a decisive impact on the productivity of its agriculture and the incomes of nearly 60 per cent of the workforce.

Full textAbstract:
India, a country now known as one of the world’s fastest-growing economy, continues to be inhabited by 40 per cent of the global population of open defecators. Nearly 536 million people in India defecate in the open every day. To rectify this multifaceted issue, Government of India launched the Clean India Mission, famously known as the Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan, in 2014. Sanitation became a national political priority for the first time in India. The Mission renewed a hope to address a myriad of issues associated with open defecation. But this hope has only been fulfilled partially in the past five years. The paper highlights the issue of open defecation with a case of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD), finding answers to one question: what is the role of an urban planner in liberating Indian cities, especially Delhi, from sanitation deprivation and open defecation. National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi is identified as the case area for the project for two prime reasons: one, the extent of sanitation deprivation in the city; and second, the administrative capital of India often forms a precedent for the rest of the nation. The paper is structured into three broad sections: first, the extent of sanitation deprivation in urban India and analysis of policies- planning and non-planning, formulated in response to the issue, is highlighted. Second, the extent of the issue is investigated for the case of Delhi in context of policy frameworks; third, urban narratives of sanitation deprivation captured across select six clusters of jhuggi jhompri1 in the National Capital Territory are highlighted to exhibit differences in access and use of sanitation facilities, in context of the pan-India Clean India Mission. The paper concludes at a note of hope- envisioning a city and a country where no one is deprived of their basic human right to improved sanitation, or has to defecate in the open, and also details out implementable strategies and policies for Delhi and urban India.

The current study sought to investigate the variations in the physiological functions such as Photosynthetic rate, Stomata conductance, Transpiration rate, Total Chlorophyll and the significant role of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants in eliminating the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) generated in response to varying concentration of mercury viz., 0 , 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 mg kg-1 in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) and fern (Nephrolepis exaltata). Results revealed a 17.3 and 10.4 per cent reduction in chlorophyll content of Indian Mustard and Boston Fern between the 20 mg kg-1 treated plants and the control suggesting reduction in photosynthetic rate of the plant Albeit these parameters were affected, plants tolerated 20 mg kg-1 without any visual phytotoxicity symptoms. Gaseous parameters were inversely proportional to the mercury concentration whereas oxidative stress indicators and antioxidant enzymes exhibited a positive correlation. An average increase of 38 per cent Proline was observed in both plants. In B.juncea and N.exaltata, Average catalase activity and peroxidase activity ascended from 2.35 to 5.12 min-1 g-1 and 3.26 to 6.80 min-1 g-1, and 0.23 to 1.17 min-1 g-1 and 0.30 to 1.27 min-1 g-1, respectively which assures the phytoremediation potential of these plants in mercury contaminated soils.

Full textAbstract:
Hill terrains have always posed enormous challenges for human habitation. India, being a vast subcontinent, has an extensive area of hilly terrain. This paper highlights the challenges faced and the need of improving the occupational safety of hill population. For the present investigation data was collected purposively from Bageshwar and Almora districts of the Uttarakhand state in India. t was reported that hill women performed various tasks including on farm activities like harvesting, weeding, land preparation, transplanting, sowing. The main off farm activities performed by them include making firewood, making fodder, carrying firewood, carrying fodder, carrying milk/food. The domestic activities performed by them include cooking, washing, mopping, milking, collecting dung. It was found that almost 96 per cent of these tasks were found to be performed by women only while men did just the 4 per cent of these tasks. While performing these tasks the hazards reported by the respondents were attack of wild animal, slip/trip/falls, fog, flood, temperature extremities, torrential rain, earthquake, thunderstorm, snowfall, landslide, road accidents, and forest fire.

Full textAbstract:
Critical social and organisational skills are increasingly becoming a desired quality in most of the service sector jobs in India. Personality development, self-improvement and public speaking are now marketed in urban India through several educational enterprises that charge an exorbitant amount of money from the customers. People from rural and marginalised backgrounds often lack the sophistication and confidence to compete with their privileged counterparts in urban India despite having technical and vocational skills. Digital Empowerment Foundation (DEF) initiated the program Going Online as Leaders (GOAL) —to connect urban volunteers with rural women online to provide them guidance and support in digital skills to bridge the information gap. Initially, the program connected four women from the rural indigenous community with 25 skilled urban women, the program is now expanded to— states. Data comparing the baseline and end-line survey of the program shows that the number of those who want to pursue higher education has doubled. Also, at 26 per cent, the largest number of mentees wanted to work towards establishing digital connectivity and engagement in their communities, a nine per cent increase from registration. Remarkably, there was a 44 per cent rise in mentees who want to do social work showing their aspiration to be the change-makers in their community. // The programme‘s provision of smartphones is a transformative experience for mentees. None of the mentees interviewed had owned a phone prior to GOAL, while their brothers and fathers did. Mentees described that interacting with mentors had enabled them to speak ‘my mind‘, ‘not be shy' and ‘dream big'. They started using WhatsApp, Facebook and YouTube to connect with the larger world. They browse the internet avidly for information, supplement studies, and learn crafts. They also download apps for English translations to karaoke singing. Music, films and serials are routinely sourced online. Mentors have taught them to use technology safely and responsibly. Mentors and trainers observe that the mentees’ ‘quality of conversations’ has improved sharply and that they have learnt to think about themselves’. The GOAL program was adopted by the Ministry of Tribal Affairs, Government of India and is now being replicated in several states. Using the GOAL program as an example, the presentation will demonstrate how digital technology, with planned programs can bridge the geographical inequalities in accessing education and acquiring skills.

Full textAbstract:
This paper describes the aerodynamic design and analysis of a high-pressure, single-stage axial flow turbine suitable for small gas turbine engine application using computational methods. The specifications of turbine were based on the need of a typical high-pressure compressor and geometric restrictions of small gas turbine engine. Baseline design parameters such as flow coefficient, stage loading coefficient are close to 0.23 and 1.22 respectively with maximum flow expansion in the NGV rows. In the preliminary design mode, the meanline approach is used to generate the turbine flow path and the design point performance is achieved by considering three blade sections at hub, mean and tip using the AMDC+KO+MK+BSM loss models to meet the design constraints. An average exit swirl angle of less than 5 degrees is achieved leading to minimum losses in the stage. Also, NGV and rotor blade numbers were chosen based on the optimum blade solidity. Blade profile is redesigned using the results from blade-to-blade analysis and through-flow analysis based on an enhanced Dawes BTOB3D flow solver. Using PbCFD (Pushbutton CFD) and commercially available CFD software ANSYS-CFX, aero-thermodynamic parameters like pressure ratios, aerodynamic power, and efficiencies are computed and these results are compared with one another. The boundary conditions, convergence criterion, and turbulence model used in CFD computations are set uniform for comparison with 8 per cent turbulence intensity. Grid independence study is performed at design point to optimize the grid density for off-design performance predictions. ANSYS-CFX and PbCFD have predicted higher efficiency of 3.4% and 1.2% respectively with respect to targeted efficiency of 89 per cent.

Full textAbstract:
Cotton is one of the hugely grown commercial crops in India, mainly in the states of Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. Provisional data from the Meeting of the COCPC (2021), says that India stands first in the world in acreage with 120.69 Lakh Hectares area under cotton cultivation i.e., around 36% of world area of 333 Lakh Hectares. India is in the top position in the world with an estimated production of 362.18 lakh bales during the cotton season 2021-22 i.e., 23 per cent of the world’s cotton production of 1555 lakh bales. Telangana, the study area produced the highest cotton in South India region i.e., 66.45 lakh cotton bales in 2021-22 season, 14.63 per cent higher than the previous season. This shows the immense potential of the cotton production both in terms of employment and economy. ILO (2019) highlighted that cotton farming is one of the most challenging and labour - intensive activities. Lakhs of migrant and bonded labourers, even children and adolescents are being involved, sometimes as unpaid and invisible labour. Women are majorly involved in cotton picking, which is one of the labour - intensive activity in cotton farming. Despite these problems, mechanization is still lagging in cotton picking activity, which causes lot of drudgery and musculo-skeletal issues among them. This can in turn influence the work efficiency of the labour. Though there are cotton picking machines available in the market, farmers and farm labourers do not purchase and use them as they are unaffordable in price; unaware of the machinery and not sure of its efficiency. With these insights, the current study made an attempt to analyse the drudgery reduction among farm women by using a mechanized cotton picker. The study was conducted on ten farm women involved in cotton picking at Lillipur village of Maheswaram mandal, Telangana. Results showed that most of the sample were having a work experience between 6 - 9 years, worked for 4 - 8 hours per day in the picking season. The perceived exertion of work stress by all the sample was ‘very difficult’ while practicing the traditional method of cotton picking. However, it was ‘neutral’ for almost 70 per cent of the sample during the usage of hand operated cotton picker. There was a reduction in drudgery index in improved method (275.7+0.7) when compared to traditional method (276.2+0.5). The parameters related to physiological workload like resting, working and recovery heart rate, CCW, CCR etc., also showed positive changes by using improved cotton picking method. This study, through its results proved that increase in efficiency, drudgery reduction, saving time and effort of the labour can be done by adapting mechanization in farming activities. The results give an indication that taking up such small mechanization measures can surely help the farming community in a long run.

Full textAbstract:
The Sampling and Small Punch testing (SPT) is a powerful technique based on tests using miniaturized specimens machined out small sampled material of components in service. At present, it is the only existing method capable of providing experimental characterization of service exposed materials of components and materials of new built plants. Small sampling is non-invasive and SPT provides direct measured material properties. It provides a significant technology capability that facilitates assessing power plant operating equipment for structural integrity and operational condition. The new method provides utility members an attractive option to interrogate equipment for making run/inspect/repair/replace decisions. The SPT technique supported by assessment software, NDE and Metallography, used to define guidelines for components life assessment cross the power generation and petro-chemical sectors, serving both utilities, and constructors. It addresses the industrial need for personalized material and welds data required for a) lifing of plant; consumed life and residual life of components, b) convenience of repairing, replacing, life of the new welds on old components, c) cost of component deterioration, cost of normal service, d) characterizations and qualifications of blade repairs, of coating materials-methods. The first international SPT workshop was organized in June 27–28, 2011 in Nottingham, UK in order to discuss the state-of-the art SPT Creep and Fracture, and the draft CEN Cope of Practice (COP). The International SPT Experts Group serves as international forum for discussion and collaboration of industrial application of SPT methodology for in-service component life assessment. It is noted the draft CEN COP needs to be revised. Presently, European, Japanese and Indian national SPT project groups are running SPT tests and working on analysis programs. The present paper reports on a) the use of SPT in materials and component characterization, and b) drafted technical program by the international experts group to harmonize international efforts on SPT testing and analysis for efficiency and cost effectiveness.

Full textAbstract:
The fast urban development in India is making evident many social, cultural, and economic complexities reproduced in the city's planning and design. The drive for modernization is becoming the central topic in the national and political debate and becomes more urgent every day. Among these contexts, urban fabrics in-between developing cities, heritage roots, "smart city" missions and "kinetic" cities constitute a framework for research on morphological, functional, social and environmental perspectives. This paper investigates contested locations in Ahmedabad, where informality finds space between heritage structures and recent beautification projects, such as the Sabarmati riverfront. The paper understands how a holistic approach is essential in rethinking and upgrading the spatial and urban conditions of informal settlements in the city and therefore highlights the relevance of adequate lenses to understand these complexities. Like many other cities in India, living in slums or informal settlements is a common phenomenon in Ahmedabad, as they provide affordable housing close to job opportunities. In 2009, AMC (Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation) identified 834 slums, sheltering 23 per cent of the total population of the city. Several conditions and features characterize these settlements since their communities are often from the same region, class, caste, or religion. This paper will analyze case studies in Ahmedabad, where the friction between informality, preservation of heritage structures and new smart city developments is evident. The paper will question various assumptions regarding the informal environment and analyze their cultural and architectural identities, the domestication of heritage structures, and vulnerability within the idea of a smart and globalized Ahmedabad.

Full textAbstract:
In 2011, India had more phone users (around 54 per cent of households) and television access (33 per cent) in rural areas than people with access to tap water (31 per cent) and toilet facilities (31 per cent), according to Census 2011. This clearly indicates the failure of government programmes to change the centuries-old practice of defecation in the open. This neglect of safe sanitation has had catastrophic outcomes in terms of human well-being. This case study is an analysis of the latest central government Swachch Bharat Mission - Gramin (Clean India Mission - Rural) (or SBM-G), which has achieved much greater success than any hitherto government effort in providing access to and use of toilets, especially in rural areas where the need is greatest. However, any conception of achieving ODF status, or free of open defecation, in a village (or any limited geography) is more than merely building toilets. The Sanitation Learning Hub commissioned case studies of sanitation campaigns in both India and Nepal, drawing out the lessons learnt for other countries wishing to implement similar initiatives. Both case studies focus on how target setting and feedback and reporting mechanisms can be used to increase the quality of campaigns.

Full textAbstract:
Between 2001 and 2011, India’s urban population increased from almost 28 per cent to just over 31 per cent. Almost 139 million people migrated to cities (mainly Delhi and Mumbai), often bringing their children with them. Most live in poverty in informal settlements that lack basic infrastructure and services. Their children are often out of school and have no safe spaces to play. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), ratified by India in 1989, recognises children’s right to play as fundamental to their social, emotional, and physical wellbeing. Urban planners need to involve children in co-designing better neighbourhoods that accommodate children’s right to play.

The volume of international transfers of major arms in 2017–21 was 4.6 per cent lower than in 2012–16, but was 3.9 per cent higher than in 2007–11. The five largest arms exporters in 2017–21 were the United States, Russia, France, China and Germany. The five largest arms importers were India, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Australia and China. Between 2012–16 and 2017–21 there were increases in arms transfers to Europe (19 per cent) and to the Middle East (2.8 per cent), while there were decreases in the transfers to the Americas (–36 per cent), Africa (–34 per cent), and Asia and Oceania (–4.7 per cent). From 14 March 2022 SIPRI’s open-access Arms Transfers Database includes updated data on transfers of major arms for 1950–2021, which replaces all previous data on arms transfers published by SIPRI. Based on the new data, this Fact Sheet presents global trends in arms exports and arms imports, and highlights selected issues related to transfers of major arms.

Full textAbstract:
"Formally trained architects in India participate in building habitation for less than 10 per cent of the population. Most architecture created through the involvement of architects produces segregation and discrimination towards certain classes, castes and genders. This study is concerned with the role of formal architectural education in addressing the habitation question and issues of spatial justice. Towards this, a review of the educational ecosystem for architecture has been undertaken. This ecosystem includes institutions, universities, regulatory bodies, journals, events, awards and offices. The study also briefly looks at cases of habitation making for the remaining 90 per cent who do not get served by trained architects. From our review, it is apparent that this ecosystem is structurally, institutionally and pedagogically insufficient to produce a relevant spatial culture, spatial justice or cultural sustainability. While it is structurally located within a political economy where education is a money-making enterprise, it is institutionally geared to reduce academia to educational organisations and pedagogically oriented to prepare students for a building industry of a certain kind. Yet, despite the odds, architectural institutions have been innovating and striving to create relevance. Their efforts will remain key for the overhaul of the ecosystem and they will have to steer the process of change."

The volume of international transfers of major arms in 2014–18 was 7.8 per cent higher than in 2009–13 and 23 per cent higher than in 2004–2008. The five largest exporters in 2014–18 were the United States, Russia, France, Germany and China. The five largest importers were Saudi Arabia, India, Egypt, Australia and Algeria. The flow of arms to the Middle East increased by 87 per cent between 2009–13 and 2014–18, while there was a decrease in flows to all other regions. From 11 March 2019 the freely accessible SIPRI Arms Transfers Database includes updated data on arms transfers for 1950–2018. Based on the new data, this Fact Sheet highlights global and regional trends and selected issues related to arms transfers.

Full textAbstract:
Imports of major arms by European states rose by 47 per cent between 2013–17 and 2018–22, while the global volume of international arms transfers fell by 5.1 per cent. There were decreases in arms transfers to Africa (–40 per cent), the Americas (–21 per cent), Asia and Oceania (–7.5 per cent) and the Middle East (–8.8 per cent) between the two periods. The five largest arms importers in 2018–22 were India, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Australia and China. The five largest arms exporters were the United States, Russia, France, China and Germany. The war in Ukraine had only a limited impact on the total volume of arms transfers in 2018–22, but Ukraine did become a major importer of arms in 2022. In addition, most European states substantially increased their arms import orders and the war will have significant ramifications for future supplier–recipient arms trade relations globally. From 13 March 2023 the freely accessible SIPRI Arms Transfers Database includes updated data on transfers of major arms for 1950–2022, which replaces all previous data on arms transfers published by SIPRI. Based on the new data, this fact sheet presents global trends in arms exports and arms imports, and highlights selected issues related to transfers of major arms.

Imports of major arms by states in Europe increased by 94 per cent between 2014–18 and 2019–23, while the global volume of international arms transfers decreased marginally, by 3.3 per cent. There were overall decreases in arms transfers to all other regions, but states in Asia and Oceania and the Middle East continued to import arms in much larger volumes than those in Europe. Nine of the 10 biggest arms importers in 2019–23, including the top 3 of India, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, were in Asia and Oceania or the Middle East. Ukraine became the fourth biggest arms importer globally after it received transfers of major arms from over 30 states in 2022–23. Arms exports by the United States, the world’s largest arms supplier, rose by 17 per cent between 2014–18 and 2019–23, while those by Russia fell by more than half (–53 per cent). France’s arms exports grew by 47 per cent and it moved just ahead of Russia to become the world’s second largest arms supplier. From 11 March 2024 the freely available SIPRI Arms Transfers Database includes updated data on transfers of major arms for 1950–2023, which replaces all previous data on arms transfers published by SIPRI. Based on the new data, this fact sheet presents global trends in arms exports and arms imports, and highlights selected issues related to transfers of major arms.
