2. Feminist politics in Gandhian thought

While First Wave feminism of the early 19th century was in an advanced stage of addressing women’s issue of suffrage rights and equality, raising the slogan, ‘Personal is political’, Indian women were in their helpless silence of suffering, exploitation, and discrimination. They believed that they are born to suffer and bound to be ruled by men. They were suppressed by the conflicting social status: either worshipped as Goddesses Durga or Sakti on one hand and on the other, tortured as an object of exploitation. Women, when treated objectively, are what Simon de Bouvier, calls ‘the other’. The gender division in patriarchy, is male-centered, where women’s rights and identity, are suppressed under custom and taboos. Except for a few, women in general, are not conscious of the inequality, oppression, and cruelties, they face. Women’s political history in India in its real sense begins in the Gandhian era. Gandhi has absolute confidence in women’s powers and he visualized, an ideal non-violent world, where, women are the right choice for peacemakers and leaders. She is a perfect individual who can exert immense influence on man and society. Gandhi is a feminist in his socio-political perspectives, which are allied to his patriarchal values.

3. Analysis of effects of Suppressing natural urges explained in Ayurveda – Causing physiological changes in the human body

Ayurveda is a science of life that deals with keeping the body and mind healthy, by protecting them against diseases and curing illness through its various principles. Certain aspects like Dincharya, Ritucharya, Aahara Vidhi Vidhana, Na Vegadharneeya, etc. are given in classical literature to keep one in a healthy state. The concept of Vega in contemporary science, can be compared to natural biological reflexes related to the autonomous nervous system and their suppression will result in Vata aggravation and ultimately may lead to various pathologies in the body. In the present era, because of stressful jobs, due to hesitation, no proper facilities to void, and being engaged in important work, a person may suppress various urges. Ayurveda describes fourteen Vegas and their suppression or premature initiation is a key factor in the manifestation of ailments through disturbance in the equilibrium of Doshas. In this article, diseases produced in the human body by suppressing natural urges as given in the text are discussed along with their treatment and an attempt is made to analyze pathophysiological changes in different organ systems.

9. Influence of ICT on women’s empowerment

In a developing nation such as India, ICTs (Information and Communication Technologies) are emerging as an effective instrument for women's empowerment. New possibilities for information sharing and knowledge acquisition for both men and women have been made possible by the development of ICTs. The ICT revolution has created challenges and issues in addition to new opportunities for economic and social progress. All facets of society are being affected by its ability to shape and enhance a broad variety of developmental apps in the agricultural, industrial, and social sectors. The growth of people is given special chances through ICT. ICT was expanding inequalities between nations, regions, gender, rich-poor, and elite disregarded also among the several categories of females in different realms of activity. Simultaneously, ICT was enlarging gaps between and within rural-urban, rich-poor, and gender. Building up the skills of women is essential if they are to be included in productive endeavors, institutional development, family and social change, political representation, decision-making, trade & commerce, entrepreneurship development, and social leadership. There is a need to increase the odds of women owning, running, and controlling enterprises in all industries, especially service-based IT firms. Additionally, there is a requirement to expand their employment opportunities in e-related fields, rather than limiting them to call centers, telecentres, data entry-level jobs, and lower levels in organizations, and to higher managerial and technical positions in government & non-government organizations, research, and educational institutions. ICT must address all of these issues affecting women as a whole and be utilized to help create a society where women are empowered.

11. Research on Swachh Bharat Mission(SBM) a paradigm shift in waste management and cleanliness in India

India generates nearly 62 million tons of municipal social waste annually, creating huge environmental problems. A small number of initiatives for waste treatment, e.g., incineration, pyrolysis, bio-refining & biogas plants, composting, recycling, and SLFs are available in the country. An inclusive improvement policy and a paradigm shift are necessary for sustainable Solid Waste Management (SWM). SBM (SBM), flagged off on October 2, 2014, is considered as a paradigm shift in the Indian SWM movement. SBM is the country’s biggest-ever cleanliness drive, costing over 10,600 million USD for 5 years in 4,041 towns, which SWM considered as one of the six components. One of the stated objectives of SBM is to ensure door-to-door garbage collection and proper disposal of municipal solid waste in all 83,000 wards in urban areas by 2019. Swachh Bharat citizen communities were formed subsequently to generate awareness and citizen participation. Since then, over a period of 12 months, over 335,000 citizens have become part of the various Swachh Bharat citizen communities across more than 100 cities in India. The study reviews the present status and sustainability of the activities undertaken and proposes some improvement scopes in the schemes under the SB mission for effective SWM in India. The study will definitely help in revisiting the scheme periodically for continual improvement.

13. Carbon credit financing- A global perspective

In order to combat climate change, it became crucial for industrialized countries to swiftly decarbonize and reduce their emission levels. A novel financial tool called carbon financing gives carbon emissions a monetary value and enables companies who want to offset their own emissions to do so by purchasing carbon credits produced by eco-friendly projects. One tonne of carbon dioxide or an equivalent amount of another greenhouse gas may be emitted by the holder of a carbon credit, a sort of trading permits. By directing industrial processes towards less carbon-intensive approaches than those used when there is no cost associated with emitting carbon dioxide and other GHGs into the atmosphere, the government attempts to maintain a limit on the emissions of harmful greenhouse gases (GHGs) from its industries.

17. A study on the impact of FDI on the Indian economy

Foreign direct investment is essential to the economic growth of any emerging nation. Over the past two decades, foreign direct investment (FDI) has become more critical to India's economy. Foreign direct investment bridges the gap between these two financial practices. Numerous nations in transition, including India, are struggling with a lack of a savings surplus. In this case, FDI from outside is the key to success in addressing the issue. Investment from abroad helps lower the BOP gap and lays the groundwork for fast GDP expansion. Only secondary sources were used for this analysis. This research paper investigates the current state of foreign direct investment (FDI) and its effects on the Indian economy. To that end, we make some educated guesses based on actual data from 1991 to 2014 to draw this conclusion. We employ helpful statistical methods like correlation and linear regression analysis to achieve this end. SPSS software was used for the analysis of the data. And therefore, we arrive at the conclusion that FDI has a considerable impact on India's GDP. The last two decades have seen a massive increase in foreign direct investment (FDI) into Asia. India has been a bit of a late bloomer when it comes to foreign direct investment (FDI), but the country's large market potential and liberalized regulatory system have kept it a popular choice among investors. The purpose of this article is to study the difficulties India has in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) and to investigate the effects that FDI has had on the Indian economy in the last two decades. The study highlights the difficulty of understanding FDI statistics in India and discusses the primary policy implications of this research. Words to Remember GDP, Economic Growth, and Foreign Direct Investment.

18. Study of consumer buying behaviour towards e- pharmacies in India

Consumer buying behaviour towards e-pharmacies in India is gaining traction as more people are realizing the convenience and safety of online pharmacies. With the growth of internet penetration, many Indian consumers are now turning to online retailers for their medical needs. Consumers often have reservations about making purchases online, especially related to the security of their personal and financial information. E-pharmacies must be able to provide a secure platform for customers to make payments, as well as clearly communicate their privacy policies in order to build customer trust and increase sales. This study helps to understand the various factors that influence the choice of online pharmacy. Age is one factor that can have a profound effect on consumer buying behaviour in this sector. Younger consumers tend to be more tech-savvy and comfortable with making purchases online than their older counterparts, while older generations may feel uncomfortable using digital payment methods or lack access to technology altogether. It is important to consider the age factor when studying consumer buying behaviour in E- pharmacies, as it may shape the way consumers perceive and interact with E-pharmacies.

21. Statistical analysis of obstetrical mortality

Obstetrical mortality is a global public health concern that every nation prioritizes to completely eradicate or reduce to the barest minimum by improving maternal health. The research seeks to determine the trend of obstetric death in Ghana within a specified time frame and as well model the obstetric rates in Ghana using Weibull Distribution. The Weibull distribution is mostly used in reliability analysis and life data analysis because of its ability to adapt to different situations and flexible enough to model. From the trend analysis conducted using the S-curve which the data used fitted, the obstetric mortality rate is decreasing continuously with respect to increase in number of years but even at this rate, Ghana might still not meet the sustainable Development Goals target of 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030. The maximum and minimum values for the obstetric mortality for the entire period under consideration that is from 2000 to 2017 were 308 and 484 respectively. This implies that if measures are not put in place, there can be tendency of increase in obstetric death rates. Also, the maternal mortality rates for the entire period were positively skewed and leptokurtic in nature with average and coefficient of variation (CV) as 361 and 13.2 respectively. The value of the shape parameter of the Weibull slope indicates, mortality rates gradually increase to a peak, and then decreases over time.
