Ar. KETAKI S. KULKARNI ; SHARAD MAHAJAN ; RAZI RAFAT KHAN

ABSTRACT

Rapid urbanization in India in recent decades has a resulted in city overpopulation and the rise of slums. Slums are home to a significant portion of the population in Aurangabad, one of India's Industrial cities. Several attempts have been made to implement slum policies that address the housing and communal needs of slum residents while simultaneously achieving the greater goal of urban development.  They are particularly vulnerable to climatic change disasters and other environmental hazards due to their location and shaky infrastructure. While there are several strategies for enhancing infrastructure, ranging from that in situ restoration to transfer to a formal settlement, little study has been conducted on comment livability, especially in comparison to various options. Since most acceptability work has concentrated on formal settlements, there is an information gap in the understanding of how livability perceptions differ in developing countries like India, where a large segment of the population resides in informal settlements like slums. This paper continues by claiming that previous policies ignored the majority of slum residents' rights while benefiting other parties such as real estate developers.

THE USE OF ‘MAGICAL REALISM’ IN THE NOVEL “ONE NIGHT @ THE CALL CENTRE” BY CHETAN BHAGAT

D. RAMSINGH PRABHU

ABSTRACT

Magical realism, magic realism, or marvelous realism is a style of fiction that paints a realistic view of the modern world while also adding magical elements. It is sometimes called fabulism, in reference to the conventions of fables, myths, and allegory. It is considered a subgenre of fantasy. The borders between magical realism and fantasy are mushy. Magical realism as a genre can be thought of as a subset of fantasy, but in true fantasy novels, the larger outer world does not look like ours, we have been departed to another world altogether. But in a magical realist story, on the other hand, we are in a mundane, familiar place that is inhabited or imbued with something not of this world. The novel, “One Night at the Call Centre”, is set in a place, which is very common and familiar to all readers but the writer, all of sudden, introduces a magical element in the plot with a definite purpose. This article aims at identifying the magical element and the purpose of introducing the element.

Key Words: Realism, Supernatural Power, Fiction, Fantasy, Myth.

विश्वयोगी स्वामी सितारामदासजी महाराज वर्णित सामुदायिक प्रार्थनेचे स्वरूप

वर्षा जांबुवंत मासुरकर

ABSTRACT

सर्वव्यापक पूर्ण ईश्वरी तत्वाला अनुसरून त्यात समरस होण्याकरिता जे चिंतन, मनन आणि जो बोध अंगिकारला जातो, तीच खरी प्रार्थना होय. प्रार्थना शब्द 'प्र' अधिक 'अर्थ' या दोन शब्दांनी बनलेला आहे, याचाच अर्थ होतो पूर्ण तल्लीनतेने निवेदन करणे. दुसऱ्या शब्दात प्रार्थनेचे तात्पर्य ईश्वराला, गुरूला, किंवा ईष्ट च्या प्रति , एखाद्या वस्तूबद्दल केलेली तीव्र व्याकूळ उत्कंठेने केलेले   निवेदन होय. प्रत्येकाचे कार्य हे त्याची कृत प्रार्थनाच होय. प्रार्थनेची वृत्ति वाढली की, तितक्याच प्रमाणात कार्यही प्रत्ययाने वाढले असे दृष्टीस येत असते. प्रार्थना म्हणजे कार्यशक्ती, प्रार्थनेला सक्रियतेची व कार्याला प्रार्थनेची तेवढीच आवश्यकता आहे. या दृष्टीने स्वधर्म- सेवेच्या खऱ्या मर्मांची जाणीव व्हावी, धर्माच्या समष्टि भावाचे पुनरुज्जीवन व्हावे, निरुद्ध मर्मतत्व प्रस्थापित व्हावे हाच सामुदायिक प्रार्थनेचा मुख्य हेतू. आजच्या परिस्थितीतील भिन्न संप्रदाय, समाज व पंथ यांचे वैयक्तिक व कार्यांतर्गत मतभेद एकाधिष्ठांती तरी लीन व्हावेत व त्यांतील ऐक्यातून जनसेवेचा मार्ग मोकळा होवून सर्वांचे हित साधल्यास प्रार्थना सफल झाल्याचे स्वामीजी मानतात.
