Humorous Masculinity
No full textPerera S, Pathak DN, Sandhya AS, Adkar C. Humorous Masculinity. In: Humour and the Performance of Power in South Asia. Anxiety, Laughter and Politics in Unstable Times. London: Routledge India; 2021: 139-155.Stereotypical representations of socially marginalised groups have been historically used towards the ‘othering’ of certain communities. This chapter explores the use of humour in such representations to understand how laughter is performed to draw social boundaries with the marginalised other. The Indian male gaze cast upon the Nepali man is at the center of this discussion. We use the framework of the superiority theory of humour and problematise the ‘gaze’ to trace the impact of race relations embedded in colonial history and the present-day migrant-class status of the Nepali male subject, on his stereotypical portrayal. The arguments unravelling the imagination of this caricature are built upon examples from three distinct sites of humour. We begin with the examination of text-based jokes forwarded through mass-messaging platforms and then proceed to look at how these portrayals are captured in visual media and in the cinematic experience. Lastly, we analyse ‘cringe pop’ on social media in search of the Indian male gaze when the visibility of this stereotypical Nepali man has waned up to an extent. The gaze that is cast upon the subject of such humour is understood in terms of what becomes a hegemonic ideal of masculinity and the laughter that follows further legitimises this exercise of power

No full textIn present investigation crude triacontanol was isolated and identified from rice bran wax. Triacontanol was isolated by saponification and extraction method. The obtained mixture is crude Triacontanol. It was analyzed by Gas Chromatography (GC) and melting point method. Purity of triacontanol was 13.33%. 1Department of Botany, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad (M.S.), India; 2Department of Botany, University of Pune, Pune (M.S.), India* Corresponding Author, Email: [email protected] Cite This Article As: Sandhya Jaybhay, Pankaj Chate and Avinash Ade. 2010.

India's National Population Policy (2000): An Evaluation
No full textprofessional paper for the fulfillment of the Masters of Public Policy degreeThis paper examines the quality of India’s family planning practice under the National Population Policy (2000) or NPP-2000. The intent of NPP-2000 is to eliminate unmet contraceptive needs by providing high quality reproductive healthcare. In particular, the NPP-2000 aims to address flaws in healthcare infrastructure and to achieve a total fertility rate of 2.1 births per woman by 2010. Unfortunately, the implementation difficulties of past years persist in the era of NPP-2000. Indian families are subject to poorly-trained healthcare personnel and insufficient medical supplies, among other setbacks. Using interviews with family planning professionals and data from quantitative
and qualitative studies, the following analysis exposes widespread variation in the quality of family planning practice. Additionally, the author proposes strategies to address unmet contraceptive needs in northern states and among disadvantaged populations.Agrawal, Sandhya. (2009).

Effect of Chitosan on Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) Seed Germination
No full textPresent paper deals with the effect of chitosan at different concentration on seed germination of okra. It was revealed that chitosan at 0.03%, 0.12%,0.3% and 0.6% concentration induced seed germination in okra while at 0,03% there was maximum seed germination percentage as compare to other treatments. 1Department of Botany, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad- 431 004 (MS), India; 2Department of Chemistry, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad- 431 004 (MS), India; 3Department of Botany, University of Pune, Pune -411 007 (MS), India.* Corresponding Author, Email: [email protected] Cite This Article As: Sandhya Jaybhay, Asha Chate and Avinash B.

Study of ichthyofauna diversity of Dejla Dewada reservoir from Bhagwanpura Tehsil, M.P.
No full textThe present study deal with identify the ichthyofauna presented in Dejla Dewada reservoir. West Nimar (Khargone). is one of the district of M.P.. The dejla dewada reservoir is situated on the river kunda, near village Bhagwanpura about 35 Kms. away from the district head quarter of West Nimar (Khargone). The geographical position of this reservoir latitude 21- 36'-45" and longitude is 75- 37'-30". It is man made reservoir made in 1986-87 with the help of world bank. It is situated 369.56 M above the mean sea level. In all 28 species belonging to 5 order and 9 families have been found in this reservoir. The study gives initial information about fish production of reservoir.

The authors regret that the legends to Fig. 3 (C, D, and I) and Fig. 4 (B, C, and E) did not originally specify that the values shown are adjusted P values. In addition, the colors used in the bar graph in Fig. 4 B were not correct nor defined. The corrected legends, with new text underlined, and corrected Fig. 4 are shown here.

Electrosynthesis, photoelectrochemical and corrosion studies on (CdIn) Se, (CdGa) Se thin films
No full text1176-1182Electrosynthesis of indium and gallium containing
CdSe thin films on titanium substrate by electrochemical codeposition method
has been studied using aquous electrolytic bath at room temperature. The stoichiometry
of electrodeposited films could be varied using different concentrations of
indium and gallium in the electroplating solution. Photoelectrochemical
properties of the electrosynthesised films have been reported. Charge carrier densities
and flat –band potentials of the film electrodes have been determined from the capacitance
measurements. Current-voltage behaviour of the electrodeposited films has been studied
for the estimation of corrosion characteristics in the I2/I3
redox solution. Possibility of containment of corrosion using inhibitor has
also been explored. The incorporation of indium and gallium during deposition of
CdSe thin films enhances photoactivity and reduces corrosion rate. EDAX and SEM
analyses have been used for compositional and surface characterisation of the
films
Atmospheric neutrinos: Status and prospects
No full textAbstractWe present an overview of the current status of neutrino oscillation studies at atmospheric neutrino experiments. While the current data gives some tantalising hints regarding the neutrino mass hierarchy, octant of θ23 and δCP, the hints are not statistically significant. We summarise the sensitivity to these sub-dominant three-generation effects from the next-generation proposed atmospheric neutrino experiments. We next present the prospects of new physics searches such as non-standard interactions, sterile neutrinos and CPT violation studies at these experiments
Sandhya Avacharana w.s.r. to evening time: Tool to achieve longevity
No full textAyurveda is the scientific way of living which provide us the perfect health, wealth and happiness. The key role of Ayurveda is not only in enhancing the life span of an individual but also to improve the quality of life. Ayurvedic concepts are holistic in its nature hence, it is believed that the longevity with the quality can be assured by our deeds mentioned in our samhitas. Code of Conduct of life described in several places in ancient texts which addressed to the social health, occupational health, spiritual health, etc. aspects of human being. There are so many activities throughout the day which directly and indirectly influence our body and the mind So, the state of Health and Indriyajaya are achieved when these concepts are being followed in a proper way. Now a days, Evening time of the day can be considered as the most leisure time where everyone goes for the travel, for evening walks, read nobles and books, and enjoy evening snacks and small meals with colleagues, friends and family whereas students are usually busy with their coaching schedules. But these kinds of deeds are further responsible for causing many types of ailments. Specially, there are five deeds which should not be done in evening time and if done due to pranjnaapraadha then they vitiated the doshas and causes vyadhi
