Abstract:

 The ‘Mohalla’ clinics were set up by the Delhi state (provincial) government in India in 2014 to provide basic health services to people of Delhi city and its vicinity, especially targeting the urban poor. The Mohalla clinics are staffed by a doctor, a nurse, a pharmacist and a laboratory technician and theyprovide basic health services including immunisation, family planning and counselling services. The Mohalla clinic program had a good start and its operation was cost-effective; however, it is still struggling to increase its coverage to entire Delhi state as it had planned. The program got caught up in the central government and state government bureaucratic tussle, especially on the issue of acquiring land for setting up such clinics and on the implementation front due to the lack of operational plan and collaboration with the government line agencies. Thus, despite political will and funding a potentially viable urban health programmay have got stuck in the operational procedural complexities and political-bureaucratic tussle. This commentary article tries to discuss the challenges faced by the Delhi government’s ‘Mohalla’ clinics and a possible way forward to scale it up as a model urban health program.

Abstract:
The Government of Delhi introduced the policy of Mohalla Clinics in 2015 in order to improve its health care system. It was aimed at providing primary health care to people in their neighbourhood, with a particular focus on people residing in poor localities of Delhi. This article seeks to assess the role of Mohalla Clinics in the urban health care system. Based on a primary survey conducted in various areas of Delhi, we find that these clinics have helped in easing the pressure on tertiary care hospitals by providing treatment of minor ailments within the vicinity of neighbourhood. Overall, people positively endorse this initiative which contributed to a decline in out-of-pocket expenditure on medicines and tests. We find that Mohalla Clinics are ensuring better geographical access to health services by reducing time in commuting and waiting. Their scope, however, can be further broadened by introducing provisions for pregnant and lactating women, who constitute a major section of the patients visiting these clinics.

Abstract:
Initiated by the Delhi government in 2015, Mohalla Clinics aim to deliver essential primary healthcare services within local neighbourhoods, particularly in underserved and remote areas with limited access to public health facilities. This study reviews the impact of Mohalla Clinics on strengthening primary healthcare and advancing universal health coverage (UHC) in Delhi. It highlights the clinics' role in addressing urban healthcare disparities, improving primary care access, and reducing out-of-pocket expenditure (OOPE). Demographic analysis shows that a significant proportion of clinic users are women, the elderly, and low-income individuals with primary-level education. High satisfaction rates are reported for service quality, doctor-patient interactions, and the likelihood of repeat visits. The majority of patients benefit from free consultations, medications, and diagnostic tests, reflecting the clinics’ emphasis on affordability and accessibility. The study advocates for integration with existing public health initiatives, such as Urban Primary Health Centers (U-PHCs) under the National Urban Health Mission (NUHM), to further enhance healthcare delivery. Mohalla Clinics are especially beneficial to pregnant and breastfeeding women, positioning them as key players in advancing health reforms and achieving UHC. The findings underscore the need for sustained political support to expand these clinics and strengthen their role in delivering accessible and affordable healthcare to underserved populations in Delhi, significantly contributing to UHC goals in India. Key words: Primary health care, Mohalla clinic, Universal health coverage, Accessibility, Affordable health care, Quality health services.

Abstract:
Mohalla clinics have not been engaged so far in dealing with the COVID-19 crisis, though they have emerged as an important segment of the primary healthcare infrastructure and services in Delhi. In this article, we argue that these clinics could have played a significant role in tackling the virus by carrying out COVID testing and creating awareness among the public about the virus. The states such as Kerala and Himachal Pradesh, which have successfully mitigated the corona crisis, in comparison, have effectively employed their well-developed primary healthcare system during the pandemic. Drawing from these experiences, we conclude with policy suggestions to make the mohalla clinics an integral part of the strategy to fight this public health crisis in the national capital.

Abstract:
Introduction: Adolescence is a stressful period due to physical, psychological, sexual changes, and presence of disorder such as depression is a matter of concern. Objectives: To study the prevalence of depression among adolescents in urban and rural areas and its socio-demographic correlates. Materials and methods: The PSU consisted all villages (n=29) and mohallas (n=23) in field-practice area. The required number of villages and mohallas, i.e., 10 each, were chosen using the basic random procedure, wherein each village and Mohalla has been assigned a unique serial number. Results: Overall, depression was observed in 110 participants (27.5%) with similar distribution in urban and rural areas. Low maternal and paternal education was a significant risk factor. Adolescents from the upper middle socioeconomic class (42.9%) and those from the lower middle socioeconomic class (33.3%) experienced the most depression. Burden was more among adolescents with low physical activity. Conclusion: This community based study of 400 adolescents residing in the urban and rural areas of Moradabad observed significant burden of depression in adolescent with poor maternal education, living in nuclear families, leading poor lifestyle and affected by any chronic illness at the time of the interview. Positive family history of mental illness was also an important risk factor.

Abstract:
In the present investigation samples of ground water ( open well, hand pump), wheat and vegetables (spinach, potato and tomato) were collected from different areas of Dausa district of Rajasthan and analyzed to access the adverse effect on human health due to fluoride accumulation. The fluoride concentration varies between 5.1-14.9 mg/l in the collected water samples, where as in wheat samples it was found in the range of 3.42-14.25mg/l and in vegetables from 1.19-22.45mg/l. The fluoride accumulation was found to be much higher in leafy vegetable (spinach) than that of in other vegetables, where seeds or tubers are the main edible part (potato and tomato). Cereal crop ( wheat ) also estimated with more fluoride content then potato and tomato. The maximum concentration of fluoride in water, wheat and vegetables was 14.9mg/l (Bairwa Mohalla/Dausa ), 14.25 µg/g (Seengpura/Dausa) and 22.45 µg/g (Kalyanpura/ Dausa) respectively. It was observed that large number of people from Bairwa Mohalla/Dausa were suffering from Skeletal and Dental fluorosis.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Expenditure on health sector in India is one of the lowest public health expenditures in the world at just over 1% of GDP, with substantial disparities in population, infrastructure, availability and provision of services that define the Indian health care system. In a reform of Indian health systems approved by the Indian Government in March 2018, Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) was launched on 23rd September, 2018 to provide financial health insurance coverage of Rs. 5 lakhs per family per year for secondary and tertiary care hospitalizations to more than 10.74 million poor families that form the bottom 40% of population in India. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this paper is to discuss and analyze the benefits and weaknesses of the AB-PMJAY model and investigating the position that these clinics can play in (I) improving the provision of urban health facilities (II) resolving health inequities (III) and enhancing primary health care.MATERIALS AND METHOD: The authors explored different databases. Government portals, research publications on AB-PMJAY and Mohalla clinics (MC) to do in-depth analysis of various parameters.RESULTS: Although there are significant obstacles to the programme, by building impetus for program reform, AB-PMJAY offers an opportunity for the nation to resolve long-standing and ingrained shortcomings in governance, quality control and stewardship, and to accelerate India's development towards the stated UHC supply goal. The main achievement of these facilities in the last 18 months has been to introduce wellness to civic and political dialogue. CONCLUSION: Mohalla Clinics can prove as a major catalyst for Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojna for health reforms and progress towards universal health coverage in India.

Abstract:
The covid-19 pandemic has become a major public challenge globally. The assessment of knowledge level and awareness regarding covid-19 among fishers who are highly illiterate and under privileged becomes vitally important during this pandemic. The aim of the study was to determine the knowledge, awareness, preventive practices, behavioral change and vulnerability among fishers due to covid-19. The primary data was collected through personal visits. A well structural questioner comprising of 22 close ended questions regarding covid-19was used to collect the data from 80 fisher respondent from 3 fisher dominant areas (viz Moti Mohalla, Taliban, Dobhi ghat) of district Srinagar. The data collected was analyzed using different statistical tools and scales like MS-Excel, PAST-4 and SPSS. The research revealed that despite being illiterate the fisher’s knowledge level about covid-19 and measures taken to reduce it were significantly high. The study recorded good knowledge and awareness among respondents, however there is a further need to organize community-based awareness campaigns to enhance the level of knowledge and awareness among the under privileged sections of society.

Abstract:
The capital city of India, Delhi is endowed with a plethora of multi- and super-specialty hospitals, both private and government, for treating various diseases. Patients from around the globe seek medical care in Delhi. The primary healthcare system is robust, with a network of newly established Mohalla and polyclinics. However, when it comes to a sensitive disease, ‘cervical cancer’, all glorious claims mentioned above seem to be inadequate. Cervical cancer is the 2nd most common cancer among Delhi's females. Delhi was 1st state to launch HPV vaccination as a public health program in 2016 despite resistance from civil societies. A situation analysis from literature reveals that cervical cancer screening services at the primary and secondary levels are on the backburner in Delhi, which is also evident from the poor screening habits of Delhi's females (0.7%) according to NFHS-5. This prompts questions regarding organization of the cervical cancer prevention program (NP-NCD) and the delivery of screening services in Delhi. In this review we have tried to illuminate the contemporary landscape of cervical cancer burden, screening, and treatment, while also identifying opportunities for enhancing cervical cancer management in Delhi. The study finds that implementation research targeted at finding barriers in program organization and service delivery would help strengthen the capacity of Delhi’s health system.

Abstract:
The research explores the representation of Pashtuns in popular Urdu dramas during prime time in Pakistan. Data was collected from six highly-watched Pakistani dramas, namely Suno Chanda, Suno Chanda Two, Bulbuley, Uraan, Googly Mohalla, and Yaqeen Ka Safar. These specific dramas were chosen purposefully due to the inclusion of Pashtun characters. A quantitative content analysis method was employed to examine the portrayal of Pashtuns in these prime-time Urdu dramas. All six dramas focused on depicting aspects of Pashtun life. The study's findings indicate that directors, producers, and actors effectively engaged the majority of the represented population. The dramas, which were both romantic and humorous, maintained a high level of entertainment without resorting to obscenity in dialogues. Language and gestures were used appropriately. In scenes set in Pashtun villages, proper Pashtun attire was consistently featured. Notably, despite the fact that the female characters in these shows were mostly non-Pashtuns, they portrayed Pashtun tribes convincingly. However, in sequences shot in urban settings, female characters were seen wearing alluring gowns that deviated from Pashtun tradition. This shift in attire was accompanied by a change in the behaviour of female actors, who exhibited more vulgar expressions. These aspects, observed in city dramas, presented a different image of Pashtuns, contradicting traditional Pashtun values.

Abstract:
One of the most significant political events of the final decade of the 20th century was the dissolution of the USSR in 1991, which allowed for greater democratic rights and liberalism by fundamentally altering the member republics&#39; basic integrity. In the aftermath of the dissolution of the erstwhile Soviet Union, the government of Uzbekistan initiated economic and political reforms on a large scale. In its agenda of political reforms, attempts were made to establish a multi-party system based on the liberal democratic model of the political system. After getting independence, Uzbekistan adopted its own Constitution in 1992 which led to the foundation of various political institutions. The Constitution of the republic declared Uzbekistan democratic and secular. The republic has adopted the presidential form of government with the unitary type of political system.&nbsp; On 2<sup>nd</sup> September 1993, the Government of Uzbekistan passed a law on Local Public Administration, and &ldquo;that established structure and system of local government in the country.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND COVID-19 a disease caused by SARS CoV-2 virus ever since its emergence as a pandemic in March 2020 has taken a toll on human race. Social distancing and use of face masks in public places, are globally recognized as two vital components of the preventive strategy for slowing down the transmission of SARS CoV-2. The purpose of the current study was to quantify the behaviour of wearing masks and practice of social distancing amongst general population and also observing the same in one of the red zones of Jammu and Kashmir. METHODS A cross-sectional study, was conducted by the Department of Community Medicine, SKIMS Medical College, Srinagar [red zone] of UT Jammu &amp; Kashmir during the 2nd lockdown announced from 15th April 2020 to 5th May 2020 that had made provision for relaxation of essential services. One hundred randomly selected locations [wards] within the city especially around the food outlets, bank, grocery stores, mohalla centres within the red zone which could operate during the lock down were included in the study to get the requisite sample. RESULTS From randomly chosen locations, 895 persons available for observation were taken up for the study. Mask use was seen in 67.3 % of population. Majority were wearing woven fabric masks (33.6 %) followed by 23.2 % (all women) using dupatta [head cover] as mask &amp; 19.5 % using surgical masks. Reasons for not wearing the masks were that necessity of wearing them was not perceived in 68.4 % whereas 20.5 % reported discomfort on wearing masks. Social distancing was least observed by majority of 65 % (N = 582). CONCLUSIONS Despite awareness generation, use of mask and social distancing was not being practised. Robust behaviour change communication efforts with frequent reinforcement about the preventive measures can avert large morbidity &amp; mortality from COVID-19 till vaccine becomes available and accessible to masses at large.

Abstract:
Tradition of tomorrow is the modernity of today andToday’s tradition was the modernity of yesterday.&#x0D; Modernity, as a process and not as an output, is a derivative of transformation. Transformations are different for diverse aspirations of its producers. Aspirations are negotiations between the needs and desires, and what can actually be achieved.Traditional beliefs and practices coexist, transform and sometimes depart from the original, as a result of aspirations of modernization and inspirations from the idea of modernity, to become modern. Since, a traditional urban community is deeply grounded in native tradition while becoming globally modern, an enquiry about how we are changing internally will lead us to the process of how we interpret and change modernity, thereby exploring various indigenous ways of becoming modern. Indigenous Modernity varies with different contexts and is a harmonious adaptation to contextual contemporary life. The cause for such transformations can be global but the effects will always be a derivative of indigenous reactions to modernity. In the city of Varanasi, the agents of modernity are spread across different periods, transforming the economic, social, and built fabric of the city. One can stretch the strands of transformations from the sacred core of the city (transformative layer of modernity, Kashi), to the outer periphery of the core (additive layer of modernity, Varanasi) and, sometimes to the trans-urban areas that grapple with global aspirations and new economic opportunities. This paper is based on a research aimed at discovering the transformations that have occurred under the forces of modernization within the physical fabric of Varanasi as well as within its society. Further, the study also looks at how sacred cities, the identity and intrinsic value of which are grounded in unassailable tradition, derive their ‘indigenous modernity’ to create a unique urbanism. An understanding will, thus, be made on modernity as something both deeply traditional and being constantlyreinvented through contemporary practices and of the signiicant link between modernity and transformation as a key to understand the phenomenon of ‘indigenous modernity’. The study spans from typological level, to the Mohalla level and, to the city level, and inally recommends ways of sustainable indigenous modernization.

Abstract:
<strong>Objectives:&nbsp;</strong>Anaemia is a major health problem of adolescent girls in developing country. In this present study, we evaluate the prevalence of anaemia in view of Socio-demographic profile of adolescent girls in urban area.&nbsp;<strong>Methods:&nbsp;</strong>A detailed history was performed which included socio demographic details, history of any chronic illness, socio-demographic characters, menstrual history and presenting complaints. By venipuncture of anti cubital vein, 2 mL of venous blood was drawn and collected in ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) vacutainers under aseptic precautions. The collected blood samples were analysed in the Department of Pathology by five‑part automated cell counter (Beckman Coulter AC T diff 2). For interpretation of anaemia, the cut‑off point for haemoglobin (Hb)gm% was taken as&lt; 12 g/dL), moderate (7 to &lt; 10 g/dL), and severe (&lt;7 g/dL) [6].&nbsp; Sociodemographic status was estimated by modified B. G. Prasad&rsquo;s classification. Socio-economic status classified as: class II-upper middle class, class III- lower middle class, class IV- upper lower class, class V- lower.&nbsp;<strong>Results:&nbsp;</strong>&nbsp;Out of 200 adolescent girls, anaemia was found in 148(74%) girls. most of the anaemic girls 55(78.57%) were in age of 10-12 years. Most of the anaemic girls 64(32%) belonged to lower middle socio-economic status. 64(32%) anaemic girls belonged to lower middle socioeconomic classes. Majority of anaemic girls 111(75.51%) lived in nuclear family. Parents [fathers: 79(77.45%) and mothers: 78(68.42%)] of most of the anaemic girls had primary education. BMI of most of the anaemic girls 83(73.45%) was &lt;18.5. Menarche was seen in 136(68%) girls. Most of the anaemic girls 119(87.5%) had attained menarche.&nbsp;<strong>Conclusions:&nbsp;</strong>Prevalence of anaemia is high in adolescent girls who belongs to a lower middle and lower socioeconomic status. Anaemia is more common in age 10-15 years followed by girls with menarche, lower BMI and family illiteracy. Thus, anaemia is a major health issue in adolescent girls. Hence, regular health check-up camp must be organised in school and Mohalla, in urban as well as rural area for awareness and prevention of anaemia in adolescent girls. So that, proper diagnosis and prompt treatment can be made. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

Abstract:
The framework of cultural advantage calls researchers and leaders to reexamine the structures, paradigms, and practices of effective education. We argue that the moral imperative in this challenge is to critically scrutinize and counter the way education systems perpetuate systematic inequities in opportunities and outcomes afforded to certain groups in society, in effect curtailing cultural and linguistic diversity and innovation. Our findings from research conducted in Hawai‘i indicate that learners thrive with culture-based education (CBE), especially Indigenous students who experience positive socioemotional and other outcomes when teachers are high CBE users and when learning in high-CBE school environments. Educational progress will come from forward-oriented research and leadership that embraces the cultural advantages of students with diverse experiences of racism, poverty, cultural trauma, and oppression. By cultivating culturally vibrant and affirming learning environments in lieu of “one-size-fits-all” approaches, educators honor assets found in Indigenous knowledge, values, and stories as models of vitality and empowerment for all.

Abstract:
Introduction: Hypertension, also known as high or raised blood pressure, is a global public health issue. It’s among the top ten leading causes of death in the world. Poor compliance to anti-hypertensive therapy is usually associated with bad outcome of the disease and wastage of limited health care resources. Objectives: To assess the prevalence, socio-demographic correlates and treatment compliance of the hypertensive patients. Method: This community based cross sectional study was conducted in a peri-urban area in the month of May 2019.This study was conducted in relation to May Measurement Month, an Initiative which was first observed by international Society of Hypertension in May 2017. This area is divided into six Mohallas from which two Mohallas were selected randomly. All households from the selected Mohallas were included in this house to house survey. A total of 1076 subjects above the age of 15 years participated in the study. The analysis of data was done using SPSS version 20.00 and standard statistical test like chi square (x2) was applied where ever required. Results: Over all prevalence of high blood pressure was found to be 28.8% in study population with 82.6% known hypertensives and 17.4% detected with raised BP for the first time. The overall compliance to treatment in known hypertensives was 34.4%. Conclusion: A very low treatment compliance level was observed in the study participants which needs redressal by way of mass awareness campaigns, as well as individual counseling for Behaviour Change Communication.

Abstract:
AbstractThrough ethnographic material gathered in the Muslim woodworking mohallas (neighbourhoods) of a North Indian city, this article attends to ‘performed’ elements of everyday convivial interactions. It builds on work that situates conviviality as a normative project aimed at understanding and fostering interaction within urban space which bridges forms of difference. Through descriptive accounts, the article illustrates how convivial exchanges can embody degrees of instrumentality and conceal relations of power and marginalization that act to silence outrage or contestation. This ‘performed conviviality’ is dealt with in a broader context of ‘scale’ to consider how marginalization and connectedness—the marginal hub—intersect in even the most mundane moments of convivial exchange. By tracing processes of marginalization, boundary making, and bordering within the local, city-wide, state, and international contexts, the article follows the production of a marginalized or ‘border’ subjectivity through to the individual level. The subjectivities produced in this context act to enforce degrees of self-imposed silence among those subjected to processes of marginalization. In addition—and again attending to scale through an acknowledgement of the connected nature of the mohallas—the article also considers the role of conviviality in global chains of supply through the creation and maintenance of bonds and obligations that facilitate production in the city's wood industry.

Abstract:
The social infrastructure and needs of the various communities coexisting in a city are associated in considerably substantial and strong relationship with its surrounding environment. There are numerous parameters which influence the social infrastructure and community needs with respect to its integration with the land use of that city. Accessibility of proper terminals for public transportation, institutes, and hospitals parks etc. These parameters are studied along with parallel analysis of the total area covered and existing population of the city. Social infrastructures in a city have a large impact on the quality of life of the people in the urban centers. SAS Nagar (Mohali) is a counter magnet city of Chandigarh and one of the the most well-known planned city in Punjab, India. Mohali started developing as a counter magnet in the early 1990’s. It was initially known as Mohali village, a part of the Union Territory of Chandigarh. Mohali inhere with phases/ sectors including the new industrial areas, commercial centers and the educational institutions like as C-DAC Mohali in the vicinity of the residential areas. Mohali is spread over a total area of 167.67 sq. km out of which 32.58 sq.km is under the MC area with is characterized by very well planned areas. Despite of being a well-planned city of Punjab, India; Mohali still have a shortage of appropriate opportunity of services with low openness to the needs of the people. This study focuses on the relationship between land use and the social infrastructure with emphasis on the relationship analysis with geospatial planning techniques. The quality of life of people depends on the accessibility to quality of social and community infrastructure; it also impacts the migration pattern and the movement of daily commuters for their various reasons in the city. The advancement of the city is being anticipated as per the increase of the urbanization along with accessibility to proper social infrastructure, which satisfies the essential &amp; functioning demand of the city. The development of the city is of two types’ i.e. compact development and sprawl development (depends on the density of population per sq.km). The assessment study of community infrastructure and social needs of Mohali includes various types of operational functioning parameters for study like; directional analysis, population wise analysis and area wise analysis. These social and community infrastructural needs have their own norms and standards for the city level services and as well as neighbourhood level assistance, which categorize their accessibility for the integrated land use pattern and population for services. By using open source GIS, the served areas and un-served areas along with their names are bring classified properly as per the given parameters.

Abstract:
Lakes and their basins are major repositories of biodiversity. Monitoring the basin and their respective water bodies requires an assessment of avifaunal diversity, as birds are a health indicator of the ecosystem. The present investigation focused on the avifauna diversity of Moharli Lake and its environs. Moharli Lake is located a short distance from the Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve (TATR) in the Chandrapur district of Maharashtra. Serving as one of the primary entrances to TATR, the Moharli gate overlooks this perennial freshwater lake. Abundant in nutrients, the lake supports a diverse avian population, including migratory bird species. The lake and its environs were surveyed nightly throughout the study duration, spanning from June 2014 to April 2015. The birds were classified into five distinct groups based on their habitat. A total of 81 species, representing 67 genera across 31 families within 13 orders, were documented and classified according to their status and occurrence, including migratory species. The presence of birds was meticulously documented alongside their dietary inclinations and feeding behaviors. The diverse bird community within the study area indicates a conducive habitat for both breeding and sustenance. A comprehensive analysis of avifaunal diversity in this region will aid in formulating conservation strategies for the future.

Abstract:
The literature of any language consists of many kinds of linguistic and cultural elements, like idioms, proverbs, and symbols. An idiom is a cultural element of a language peculiar to a people or district, community, or class. The quality of the poetry of a poet of any language is determined by how many idioms, proverbs, and proverbs are used in his speech. In poetry, the use of idioms is given the most importance. This is because, in the language, it works as a coating on gold. This is a style of thought that is found in prose literature in general and in poetry literature in particular. Due to this, a poet gets permanent status and his eternal status is established among people. The paper discusses a brief overview of the art of idioms.

Abstract:
Introduction: Power loom workers are at constant exposure of different pollutants e.g. cotton dust and Particulate Matter emitted from textile industry. These substances have become main causes of respiratory problems among humans throughout the world including Pakistan. A survey-based research was conducted to study the prevalence and pattern of health problems among power loom workers in Mohallah Hajiabad, Faisalabad. Objectives: The objectives of the study are to figure out prevalence and pattern of respiratory Health problems among power loom workers. And also observe current safety measures used by Power Loom workers and to make recommendations on the basis of study results. Methodology: Data was collected from a sample of 150 power loom workers in Mohallah Hajiabad, Faisalabad. A self-structured questionnaire was used to gather information about factors affecting respiratory health of power loom workers. Data was analyzed with the help of statistical software GNU PSPP (Version 0.7). Frequencies were calculated in descriptive analysis and associations were calculated by applying chi-squared test of significance. Results: Out of the 150, 105 power loom workers (70%) were smokers and the rest were non-smokers. Among 150 workers 119 (79.33%) were suffering with respiratory problems and 31(20.67%) had no respiratory issues. There was a significant positive relation between working hours and respiratory problems among workers. The results also show a positive significant association between occurrence of respiratory problems and time span of job. Conclusion: Time span of job and working hours increase the span of exposure to Particulate Matter and significantly increase the risk of respiratory illness. Smoking also proved out to be one of the major causes of respiratory illness among power loom workers. Cleanliness and proper ventilation can decrease the risk of exposure to Particulate Matter, thus decreasing the chance of respiratory health problems. Keywords: Prevalence, pattern, respiratory health problems, power loom workers.

Abstract:
In the 21st century, there has been a rapid degradation of the environment due to emissions of large quantities of CO2 and green house gases, produced by the burning of fossil fuels in order to provide thermal comfort to buildings. This has led to the concept of 'Sustainable Architecture', which works in harmony with nature and natural forces (sun-light, wind etc.) to create buildings that aim at minimizing consumption and preventing the depletion of natural resources. Sustainability requires that human activity exploits nature's resources only at a rate at which they can be replenished naturally. In the context of Pakistan, our current practices in architecture are based on western solutions to requirements of comfort provision, leading to a growing dependence on fossil fuels, and resulting in rapid environmental degradation. Rapoport (1969) states that modern solutions to climatic problems often do not work, and homes are made bearable by mechanical means whose cost sometimes exceeds that of the building shell! Before western ideals were imported to create architecture within the local context, indigenous architecture made a conscious effort to balance the natural environment with human habitation and lifestyles. Indigenous buildings collaborated with nature to give comfort (Rapoport, 1969). In this paper the climate responsiveness and appropriateness of the Sethi Haveli, Peshawar, are analyzed in order to understand indigenous responses to the issues of sustainable thermal comfort. The paper focuses on the natural ventilation methods employed in the Allah Buksh Sethi Haveli and in particular the basements of the haveli, in order to understand how natural, renewable sources of energy produce comfortable yet sustainable environments. The design of these basements and their inlet and outlet ducts in particular, together with other mechanisms, promotes natural ventilation, and provides thermal comfort during the hot summer season. Key words: sustainable architecture, Sethi Haveli, indigenous architecture, natural ventilation, thermal comfort

An endangered species of Ganges River dolphin (Platanista gangetica) in Mohana River and its population status was reported employing synchronized point count. The physicochemical parameters of water were determined using pseudo-random water sampling along various segments of the river. Mean sighting rate during monsoon, 2018 and pre-monsoon, 2016 were one dolphin per 1.355 km and 1.65 km, respectively, with a clumped distribution. Physico-chemical parameters test showed that Mohana River was slightly alkaline with high turbidity and low vulnerability to an acid deposition with a high amount of total phosphorous, indicating a high eutrophication productivity range for both seasons. Water quality is not significantly different during the study period, and the aquatic parameter showed that agricultural activities along the river may have an influence on water quality.
