USE OF BIOMETRIC TECHNOLOGY AND INCLUSION OF MARGINALISED COMMUNITIES IN FOOD SECURITY PROGRAMS
Get PDFThis paper presents research on the technological applications and its relation with the poverty alleviation programs especially the use of biometrics. One of these programs which is currently undergoing on the issue of food security in Jharkhand, is the Public Distribution System (PDS) and its transformation through technologies. The Public Distribution System is the backbone of India’s food security programs. Today, biometric identification is widely used in ration shops around the nation. The aim of the paper is the assessment of biometric technology in the Public Distribution System (PDS) and the inclusion of marginalized communities within that particularly the tribal people. This paper illustrates the transformative power of using Digital Public Infrastructure (DPIs) for food security schemes and leads to the inclusion of vulnerable communities at large, especially during adverse situations of the pandemic. The system helped combat food grain diversion mafias at large and ensured inclusivity of marginalised sections of the people within the PDS system. The paper not only advocates the need of these digital mechanisms for the smooth functioning of social security programs but it also critically articulates such provisions. It looks upon the technological advancements which our society currently requires for development but also highlights the limitations coming with it which cannot be denied. The introduction of biometric technology to the PDS has rebuilt it into one of the robust mechanisms which identify the beneficiary, regulate the shops, and bring transparency to the system, warding off bogus ration card holders and other malpractices

IMPROVING SOLUTION QUALITY IN TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS: A NOVEL ALGORITHM FOR EFFICIENT RESOURCE ALLOCATION
Get PDFThe transportation problem is a critical application in the field of operations research. Finding an optimal solution to transportation problems can be challenging due to the complexity or cost of computer programs involved, as well as the time required for optimization. As a result, obtaining an initial basic feasible solution for the transportation problem has gained significant attention. The objective is to find a systematic approach that produces a solution close to, and at times, even the optimal solution.
In this research paper, we propose the Cost-Quality method (CQM), a novel technique for obtaining an initial basic feasible solution for the transportation problem. CQM aims to maximize the transportation of goods while minimizing the associated costs, incorporating a weighting method-like strategy to achieve the most effective solution. By considering both the quantity of goods transported and the transportation costs, CQM strives to provide an optimal or near-optimal solution to address transportation problems.
Through a comprehensive analysis and experimentation, we evaluate the effectiveness of CQM in comparison to existing methods. We examine its ability to deliver balanced solutions, minimize transportation costs, and achieve computational efficiency. The results demonstrate the advantages and practical implications of CQM, highlighting its potential to improve resource allocation and decision-making processes in transportation planning and logistics.
This research contributes to the advancement of finding initial basic feasible solutions in transportation problems, offering insights into the development of more efficient and effective approaches for solving real-world optimization challenges. With CQM, transportation problem solvers can benefit from enhanced solution quality and computational efficiency, leading to optimized resource utilization and cost reduction.

संघवाद की उभरती प्रवृत्तियां न्यू मीडिया के संदर्भ में एक अध्ययन
No full textसंविधान के प्रथम अनुच्छेद में भारत को ‘राज्यों का संघ‘ कहा गया है। संविधान विशेषज्ञ सुभाष कश्यप के अनुसार, शाब्दिक दृष्टि से 'केंद्र' एक वृत्त के मध्य में एक बिंदु को इंगित करता है, जबकि 'संघ' संपूर्ण वृत्त है। संविधान सभा के सदस्य संविधान में 'केंद्र' या 'केंद्र सरकार' शब्द का प्रयोग न करने के लिये बहुत सतर्क थे, क्योंकि उनका उद्देश्य एक इकाई में शक्तियों के केंद्रीकरण की प्रवृत्ति को दूर रखना था।
लोकतंत्र की विकास यात्रा में संघ-राज्य संबंधों में नवीन प्रवृत्तियों का जन्म हुआ है, जो कि संविधान निर्माताओं की मूल मान्यताओं से दूर प्रतीत होती है। जीएसटी के माध्यम से कर संग्रह की एकीकृत प्रणाली ने राज्यों को वित्तीय आवश्यकताओं की पूर्ति के लिए संघ पर निर्भर बनाया है, न्यू मीडिया मंचों पर संघ द्वारा राज्यों को जीएसटी भुगतान में देरी की खबरे अक्सर प्रकाश में आती है। कोरोना काल में जहां संघ ने नीतियों के निर्माण और निर्धारण में आधिपत्य स्थापित किया तो वहीं राज्य ऑक्सीजन संकट के समय अपने स्वास्थ्य संसाधनों की जरूरतों के लिए केंद्र पर निर्भर हो गए थे। यह स्थिति उस समय सार्वजनिक हुई जब राज्यों के मुख्यमंत्रियों की प्रधानमंत्री के साथ वर्चुअल बैठक को दिल्ली के मुख्यमंत्री ने सोशल मीडिया प्लेटफार्म पर लाइव शेयर कर दिया। संसद संविधान की सातवीं अनुसूची के तहत कृषि उपज एवं बाज़ारों के संबंध में एक कानून नहीं बना सकती है क्योंकि कृषि एवं बाज़ार राज्य के विषय हैं। किंतु कृषि कानून के समय इसका उल्लंघन एवं राज्यों द्वारा विरोध स्पष्ट रूप से देखने में आया है। 'हैडलाइन मैनेजमेंट' के माध्यम से विरोध को समर्थन के रूप में प्रदर्शित करने के प्रयास की परंपरा इसी दौर की देन है। संघ द्वारा नियुक्त राज्यपाल की भूमिका विशेषकर ऐसे राज्य जहां दूसरे दलों की सरकारें है में संदेहास्पद रही है। मध्यप्रदेश, महाराष्ट्र जैसे बड़े राज्यों में जनता द्वारा निर्मित सरकारों का दल बदल के माध्यम से सत्ता परिवर्तन इसी दौर की घटनाएं है। दिल्ली, पश्चिम बंगाल, राजस्थान, झारखंड आदि राज्यों में केंद्रीय जांच एजेंसी की भूमिकाओं ने निष्पक्षता पर सवाल खड़े किए है। इस शोध पत्र में न्यू मीडिया के संदर्भ में संघवाद की उभरती प्रवृत्तियों का वर्णन किया गया है
