ROHINTON MISTRY AS A DIASPORIC AUTHOR
No full textThe writings of the Indian Diaspora have received a great deal of attention and critical acclaim throughout the world. Rohinton Mistry is a well renowned author in the contemporary commonwealth literature and occupies a significant place among the writers of Indian Diaspora. Even though he is settled in Canada; it is his upbringing in Mumbai that reflects in all his writings. The distinct Mumbai culture, particularly the Parsee way of life, the people of the city and even the politics of India are major themes in his novels. Rohinton Mistry as a writer of Diaspora has carved a niche for himself. His works such as: “Tales from Firozsha Baag”, “Such A Long Journey”, “A Fine Balance” and “Family Matters”;mark a new kind of writing, resulting from a fragmented, splintered world. As a Diasporic Parsi writer, very sensitively he has recalled his community’s journey through time and history with a sense of loss and nostalgia. His books portray diverse facets of Indian socioeconomic life; as well as Parsi Zoroastrian life, customs, and religion. Many of his writings are markedly “Indo-nostalgic”. Rohinton Mistry through his Diasporic discourse has well depicted his ancestral background, his community’s engaged situation in a metropolis like Bombay and his deep attachment with and nostalgia for a world gone by. In this paper an attempt has been made to delineate diasporic discourse in the works of Rohinton Mistry. Although he is obsessed with the colonial and postcolonial experiences in India, we can find some traces of Canada in his literature. His characters dream of being integrated into, and accepted by, Canadian society on the one hand and on the other hand, these same characters are torn by an insatiable desire to be true to their native culture; to honor and cherish their own, distinct cultural identity
Author identification system
No full textAbstract: Every one of us has different approach to speak and write, and there exists a long history of linguistic and stylistic analysis into authorship attribution. In last year’s, practical application for author identification have grown in area such as computer forensic(linking intercepted message to each other and to find rebel), criminal law(identifying author of payoff notes and harassing letter), civil law and computer security (tracking author of computer source code). This paper proposes the implementation of author identification system. This proposed system is based upon the principles and concepts of text analysis. For ensuring maximum accuracy in identifying author of the document we will be using TF-IDF algorithm which consists of extraction of features from the text, scoring these features and comparing them with a set of scores stored in the corpus
A Step towards Attaining Gender Equality
No full textAbstract: Today when India is celebrating the 75 years of Independence – ‘Amrith Mahotsav’. It becomes matter of top concern to reflect upon the status of the measures taken to meet gender disparities in the country. Ever Since Independence India has reported massive advancement in research and technology, has witnessed massive economic growth. However, when it comes to Gender equalization – the statistics at international level reveal that quality efforts are lacking as is revealed from the report of GDI’ 2019(GDI ‘2019 – India ranked in group 5 as compared to most of the developed nation ranking in group 1 and 2) the World Economic Forum released a report on Gender Gap in 2011, according to which, the Gender Gap Index of India is 113 among 135 countries.

Engendering global democracy
No full textThe inadequacies of hegemonic liberal democratic ideas and institutions have been exposed by feminist theorists focusing on the marginalisation of women and by global theorists examining the impact of globalisation. These theorists have developed two distinct sets of reconstructive strategies that, until very recently, have remained in ignorance of each other. Further, both feminist and global democratic schemes have been dogged by problems in terms of their theorisation of power, politics, agency and change. Recent feminist arguments about citizenship and governance go some way to bringing together concerns about gender inequality and globalisation, but they remain centred on states and the states-system as vehicles for democratic representation and participation. This article argues that a more radical reconstructive strategy can be derived from debates about the democratisation of feminism itself. Drawing on the responses of black and third world feminists to racism in the white-dominated feminist movement, and examining their influence on efforts to organise transnationally, the article points to innovative ways of thinking about power, politics, agency and change. Together these amount to a democratic framework which has applicability beyond feminist organising and which confronts the marginalisations of both gender and globalisation

A Critical Review of Lok-Purusha Samya Siddhanta and its Application in the Brihatrayee
No full textAyurveda is grounded in deep philosophical concepts that bridge the material and spiritual aspects of health. One of its foundational philosophical principles is the Lok-purusha Samya Siddhanta, which states a fundamental correspondence between the Loka (macrocosm) and the Purusha (microcosm). According to this doctrine, the human being is considered a reflection of the universe, sharing analogous structural and functional attributes. Consequently, alterations in the external environment are believed to exert direct effects on human health, influencing physiological, psychological, and spiritual states. This conceptual framework not only offers a connection between man and nature but also provides a basis for clinical application. Various classical Ayurvedic texts have elaborated upon this principle, demonstrating its relevance in diagnostic and therapeutic contexts. The present discussion explores the philosophical depth and practical implications of Lokapurusha Samya Siddhanta, highlighting its utility in contemporary Ayurvedic practice. Many classical Ayurvedic texts have explored and applied this principle in various contexts, offering numerous examples, demonstrating its utility in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of the disease
