ABSTRACT

Kamala Markandaya’s novel Nectar in a Sieve is a realistic documentary of a South Indian village where industry and modern technology played havoc. In the novel the novelist depicts the life of the rustic peasant couple Nathan and Rukmani, the protagonists, and through them the process of transforming life-style of the village at the advent of industrialization. The prime focus in the novel seems to be on the conflict arising out of the establishment of tannery in the rural community, the identity crisis resulting from a clash between western value system and Indian value system. Tannery, the juggernaut of development, with all its evils, pollution and corruption, represent the western value system of materialism and agro-industrialism, while the idyllic rural life stands for Indian value system.

ABSTRACT

Education is an endless and constant process. It is really satisfied thing that the govt., parents as well as students are becoming more conscious about education and educational policies. To make an ideal generation is one of the main objectives of education. No-one should underestimate the importance of education in human life. After getting freedom, due to the limitations, old education system which was formed and framed by Lord Macaulay, Indian Govt. had to continue. Many times it is criticized harshly that present education system adopted by Indians is not Indian Education system. It is not 100% wrong. Of course as per the demand of time and period we change it. But compare with old changes, standing govt. is taking one step-ahead decisions related with education. Yes the challenges have changed and education system must be able to make our students stronger to face it. When we observe some decisions of HRD Ministry then it is assured that education is being made more students centred and skills oriented. In fact it will be helpful to empower and enhance the abilities of students. Present research paper has tried to study and analyze the different policies of government related to higher education which will empower the students.

Key-words: Empowerment, Education, Educational Policies, Students.

ABSTRACT

The linguistic stage involves the encoding of auditory and visual information into syntactical-lexical units the symbols for letters and written words. This is mediated through the angular gyrus which thus provides the linguistic rules which subserve writing. The motor stage is the final step in which the expression of graphemes is subserved. So there is a relationship between mind and language of there is a problem in any faculty of the mind that will reflect on the linguistic behavior of the language users. The present paper tries to understand what types of problems the special education students experience while learning and using language. Following are some of the symptoms which confirm the fact that a student needs special education strategies for making him/her to learn or use language.

ABSTRACT

Urban life is the cornerstone of modern human ecology. Over the previous centuries, cities have grown and expanded quickly throughout the world. Cities are sources of jobs and education and are the motors of economic growth. They are, however, also sources of environmental poverty, inequality, and health hazards. Environmental decline in a town is triggered primarily by fast urbanization and inconsistency in housing and infrastructure provision and maintenance. These include lead exposure, air pollution, road dangers, and amplification of heat waves by "urban thermal island." As the amount of urban customers and their material expectations increase and the use of fossil fuels increases, towns lead to widespread biosphere stresses including climate change. This article will introduce and analyze environmental issues of slum and informal settlements in India.

Keywords: Keystone, ecology, Employment, Economic growth, poverty, Environmental decay, rapid urbanization, urban heat island, informal settlement, etc.

ABSTRACT

In India, there are four systems of agricultural marketing like sale in village, sale in mandi, sale in market and cooperative marketing. In agricultural marketing transportation cost, inadequate market infrastructure, lack of market information, lack of processing units, storage facility, price fluctuation are the major problems. Eliminating middlemen, enough storage facility, freedom from moneylenders, adequate transportation facilities, availability of loan and training facilities etc. are required for satisfactory agricultural marketing. Some people have suggested that crop insurance and technical guidance should be provided for improvement in agricultural marketing in India. Among all these problems, transportation charges are concerned as a major problem by the maximum number of farmers.

ABSTRACT

This article observes one of the most popular characters in the Indian English Literature namely Nanda Kaul which has been portrayed by Desai brilliantly in her novel Fire on the Mountains. The concept of alienation and the issue of existentialism have been skilfully employed by the novelist in this novel. As far as Anita Desai’s heroines are concerned Kaul is the oldest. She has the conflict in her mind because of her desire to live alone. However, the world around her never leaves her alone. The central character Nanda Kaul is shown having some self-alienating characteristics that lead her towards self-destructives. So, the zeal for the calmness and peace of mind leads her to the loss of self-identity, depersonalisation and mental trauma. However, the character of Nanda call is one of the most alienated, self-destructive and mentally disturbed characters of Indian English literature.

Key words: Alienated, Mentally disturbed, Carignano, Detachment and Attachment, Society, Situation.
