A Survey of Monitoring and Controlling Power Theft Problem in Local Area
The paper discusses the distribution structure of Talapara Bilaspur Chattisgarh and how the power theft problem in this area is monitored and controlled. Almost about 7000 houses are located and power theft problem is very popular in this area. Illegal consumption of electricity or electricity theft constitutes a major share of NTL (Non-Technical Losses). This dissertation discusses several methods implemented by illegal consumers for stealing electricity a comprehensive review of the advantages, challenges, and technologies involved in the design, development, and deployment of smart meters is presented and distribution wire of aluminum is replaced by rubber coating and insulating wire. Illegal consumer used a non linear load like cooking heater, water heater, freezer, washing machine, tube light, exhaust fan, CFL etc. The theft of power overloads the distribution system and causes low voltage, voltage dips problem and generate heavy harmonics in power system.

Financial Promise Keeping and Social Audit Programme under Mahatma Gandhi National Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) In Himachal Pradesh
Abstract Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) is the most significant act in the history Indian polity. In many ways like grass-root level participation of every citizen and beneficiary through democratic process, multi-layered social audit, transparency mechanism by involvement of civil society, comprehensive planning at village level towards sustainable and inclusive growth etc. With the implementation of National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) which is now MGNREGS, India in 2006 embarked on an ambitious attempt to fight rural poverty by creating a justifiable right to work for adults in all households in rural India. It is vital to emphasize that the future of MGNREGS, which is a legal entitlement for the underprivileged people living in rural areas, which are tied with the working of the Panchayati Raj Institutions in India. The scheme ensures the 100 days of employment to all the households, with equitability of wages to all the workers across genders. The scheme provides for depositing the money directly to the bank accounts of beneficiaries, to minimize the instances of corruption. It further provides for social audit, checking of muster-rolls and stipulated time frame, for the payment of wages. The scheme so far has been quite effective in India, including the state of Himachal Pradesh.

A Method and a System for Secure Access to a Network Resource
Bank, casino, Defense, Secret Agencies, Homes and ATM Safe is not just a vault. Every individual have believe that their money is completely secure in ATMs and strong rooms. All the banks and casinos protect their safe with their man power and latest technologies. However some masterminds have ability to deceive these systems for stealing money, important data and reputation of that organization get ruin too. The entire organization those related to money wants completely secure their money and data hence no one can Robb their safe. The present invention relates to security of resources such as monetary funds, data stores and document stores etc. and more specifically, to a method and system for secure access to a network resource. Humans are becoming very dependent on the machines and it is correct to do so as the machines are much more reliable from the security point of concern. The advancement of technology has led to increment the use of reliable safety devices. For example, ATMs, banks or any high security zone are somehow or other are managed and controlled by the use of electronically controlled high level security apparatuses. But as technology is evolving, traditional security systems are lagging to provide the required security. So advancement of technology is required so that confidential data or monetary funds can be kept into safer zones.

Studies on Strengthening of High Performance Self Compacting Concrete
Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) has more attention because of its ability to compact without the need of internal or external vibration. The placing of normal conventional concrete is difficult in reinforcement confinement places and also the strength of the concrete is low when it is subjected to severe exposure condition. In order to overcome these effects, the admixtures were used in the concrete to increase the strength and durable properties of the concrete. Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is one of the concrete which makes use of admixture to increase the flowability of the concrete without any additional vibration. As the concrete is flowable, it has good workability. SCC has more workability and by the addition of mineral admixtures like fly ash and silica fume, the concrete will attain more strong and durable, so that the concrete will behave as Self Compacting High-Performance Concrete (SCHPC).The aim of the study is to determine the flexural behavior of the self-compacting high-performance concrete. In this present work, the various literature related to SCC with different mineral admixtures was studied and the best among them was chosen for the future work
