From Pollution to Progress: Integration of Plastic Waste Management and SDG’s
Get PDFEvery aspect of human life is impacted by plastic, including technology, packaging, home appliances, cars, buildings, water transportation, museums, hospitals, and educational institutions. Plastic is increasingly being used to improve industrial operations because it is a less expensive raw material. The packaging industry is one industry that has profited immensely from the surge in plastic consumption, creating more job possibilities across many nations. Plastic grocery bags and food scraps make up the majority of non-biodegradable domestic plastic waste. Plastic is increasingly being used in numerous electronic components, such as integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, chips, and light-emitting diodes, as a result of recent advancements in the electronics industry. Because plastic is malleable in terms of shape, fabrication, and customer-friendly qualities, especially when it comes to aesthetically pleasing agricultural equipment and components, the production of plastic parts has increased in the biomedical, agricultural, and automotive industries. Road pavements are made with asphalt mixtures that contain over 90% by weight of recovered plastic waste from municipal and industrial sources in an attempt to lessen the strain on landfills and the need for extraction. This paper attempts to identify causes of mishandling of plastic trash and gaps in available legislation, as well as to provide solutions. The research seeks to analyses a legal answer to the prevailing problem of plastic trash
Huqqa in Metallic art and its depiction in painting
Get PDFThe huqqa, a distinctive emblem of sociocultural refinement, occupies a significant position in India’s artistic and material heritage. This study examines the huqqa both as an object of metallic craftsmanship and as a motif in painting, highlighting its dual existence as a functional artifact and a symbol of aesthetic and social identity. In the domain of metallic art, particularly in brass, copper, and silver, artisans transformed the huqqa into a canvas for exquisite repoussé, engraving, and inlay techniques. These ornamental forms not only display exceptional technical virtuosity but also reflect the opulence and cultural sophistication of Mughal and Rajput courts. Parallelly, its representation in miniature paintings notably those from Mughal, Rajasthani, and Pahari traditions portrays the huqqa as a visual signifier of leisure, intimacy, and courtly decorum. Through a comparative analysis of material objects and visual depictions, this research explores how the huqqa transcended its utilitarian function to embody notions of luxury, status, and ritual sociability. It also investigates how its artistic portrayal facilitated the intersection of gender, power, and cultural exchange in early modern India. By situating the huqqa within the broader discourse of visual and material culture, the study contributes to understanding how artistic expressions shape, preserve, and reinterpret social practices and aesthetic values in the Indian cultural context
Legal and Social Dimensions of Live-in-Relationships in India: A Critical Analysis of Rights, Challenges, and Judicial Perspectives
Get PDFDespite not being officially recognized by Indian personal laws, live-in partnerships have grown in importance both legally and socially throughout time. With an emphasis on partner rights, societal issues, and judicial viewpoints, this study critically examines the legal and social aspects of cohabitation in India. The paper examines the changing legal framework that regulates these kinds of partnerships, particularly the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act of 2005\u27s acknowledgment of rights pertaining to maintenance, inheritance, child legitimacy, and protection from domestic abuse. It also looks at how, in the lack of a particular legislative framework, the SC and many High Courts have interpreted the rights of cohabitating partners. From a social perspective, live-in relationships remain controversial due to deeply rooted cultural and moral values, often facing stigma and lack of societal acceptance. The research highlights the contrast between legal acknowledgment and societal resistance, analysing public perceptions, gender dynamics, and the impact of such relationships on marriage and family structures. Additionally, the paper discusses the challenges in establishing the legitimacy. By assessing judicial precedents and legal gaps, object of study is to provide the necessity of a comprehensive legal framework to safeguard the rights of live-in partners while addressing societal concerns. The findings underscore the need for balancing personal autonomy with social stability, advocating for progressive legal reforms in India
Social and Gender Biases: A Legal Study with Special Reference to Deviation in Women\u27s Leadership in Panchayats
Get PDFThis research paper explores the social and gender biases that influence women\u27s leadership in the Panchayati Raj system of rural India. The objective of the study is to understand how traditional social structures and gender-based perceptions affect the role, decision-making power, and autonomy of women representatives. The research analyzes how women\u27s leadership is impacted by social norms, patriarchal structures, and legal challenges, and examines the ways in which these biases challenge female leadership in panchayats, as well as the conditions under which women are able to overcome these barriers and play active and influential roles.
Although constitutional provisions have ensured reservation for women in panchayats and provided them with opportunities for leadership, in practice, their leadership is often recognized only in a formal sense. The study attempts a critical analysis of legal provisions to understand how social attitudes and gender-based prejudices hinder the effective implementation of women’s leadership.
The study’s findings highlight the need for legal and social reforms to strengthen gender equality within the panchayat system
The Language Structure of Chandrakant Devtale’s Poetry: Chandrakant Devtale ke Kavya ka Bhasha-Vinyas
No full textAn individual’s thoughts are conveyed to others through language. For this purpose, a poet or writer makes extensive use of words in his poetry that are embedded in the language of the common people. Poet Chandrakant Devtale, being closely connected with the rural milieu, has been able to communicate his ideas effectively to readers by employing regional, rural, and indigenous words in his poetic expression. Readers remain continually influenced by his fluent and spontaneous style. It appears as though language itself readily accepts and supports the poet in conveying the thoughts of his heart to the reader. The poet’s distinctive art of imagery seems to naturally inspire him and becomes a witness to the flow of his ideas. In his poetic style, imagery is used with ease and simultaneously creates a sense of curiosity. At places, he erects “trees of voices,” while elsewhere he personifies a stepwell by calling it blind, presenting a vivid and tangible form. In this manner, he proves himself to be a skilled craftsman of language and an expert in its aesthetic refinement.The poet’s creative skill, expressed through imagery, presents a living testimony of becoming emotionally moved by fountains of memories. Eloquence, clarity of expression, and the presentation of impartial thoughts in a strong and resonant voice emerge as symbols of struggle. Rather than confining his poetry to gentle affection and romantic sentiments, he boldly employs challenging words infused with consciousness and struggle in his compositions. There is no fixed parameter to measure the emotions of a poet’s heart; yet the reader readily accepts an illusory reflection of emotional depth and the elevated range of thought through words and ideas. Such a style and sentiment, imbued with noble thoughts, is clearly reflected in the works of poet Chandrakant Devtale.In summary, throughout his nearly four-decade-long poetic journey, Devtale has presented poetry enriched with reason and evidence, aligned with the standards of contemporary and new poetry. His works illuminate themes of society, politics, nation, public consciousness, youth awareness, the spirit of the age, new consciousness, Dalit discourse, depiction of nature, and sources of inspiration, offering readers an expansive understanding that transcends the limits of mere summary
Excise Law and the Confiscation of Vehicles: Deterrence Versus Overreach of Power
Get PDFThe confiscation of vehicles under the Excise Act, 1915 has long been justified by the State as a preventive and deterrent mechanism against the illegal transportation and trade of liquor. However, this practice has sparked serious legal and constitutional concerns, especially in light of increasing allegations of administrative overreach, procedural arbitrariness, and violation of property rights. This research paper critically examines whether such confiscation truly serves its intended purpose of deterrence or if it inadvertently results in a disproportionate curtailment of civil liberties and misuse of state power. Anchored in doctrinal and analytical methodology, the paper studies the statutory scheme under the Excise Act, judicial pronouncements, and comparative legal standards to assess the legitimacy and impact of vehicle confiscation measures. The paper further delves into the tension between State objectives and individual rights under Articles 14, 19(1)(g), and 300A of the Constitution. While the power to confiscate may serve public interest in controlling illicit liquor trade, the research highlights the urgent need for procedural safeguards, proportionality in enforcement, and harmonization of State practices to ensure that such powers are exercised within the bounds of law and justice. By engaging with judicial trends, policy analysis, and constitutional scrutiny, this paper aims to contribute to the broader discourse on balancing deterrence with rights-based governance in the context of excise regulation
