MOTHERHOOD ON THE MARGIN : A STUDY OF MAHASWETA DEVI’S MOTHER OF 1084 AND BAYEN

A woman passes through many phases in her life. She is a daughter, sister, wife, and mother. Motherhood is a blessing, a way of life. It permits a woman to express her total self with tender feelings. But life is not fair arithmetic, and motherhood is not a blessing for some women in a patriarchal society. They are under the myth that motherhood is the sphere essentially fated for women. Women are subaltern sexes who are supposed to be reproducers of mankind- considered to be child bearers and rearers. But patriarchy misuses this role as an instrument to subordinate women as a whole.

Dalit Novel : A Comparative Study of The Stepchild and Untouchable

In recent years, there has been a spurt in Dalit literature in India that attempts to bring to the foreground the experiences of discriminations, poverty and violence being faced by the Dalit community. This unprecedented development is a part of a growing need of the Dalits themselves to articulate their experiences which have for long been silenced and marginalized as unliterary. The present research paper is a comparative assessment of two prominent works- Mulk Raj Anand’s Untouchable and Joseph Macwan’s The Stepchild.

Cloning the Metagenome to Access the Biodiversity of Unculturable Bacteria

Metagenomics constitutes the sequence based analysis of the collective microbial genomes (microbiome) in a particular environment. It provides culture independent access to the gene pool of whole microbial community. The variety of laboratory culturing methods when fail to culture the unculturable bacteria, tools of metagenomics are applied to reveal their existence in a given environment. Metagenomics tools deal mainly with the direct isolation of genetic material from a defined ecological habitat (soil or marine) and cloning of the complete genome of the entire microbial population.

BUILDING A NEW TECHNO-LEGAL REGIME

Rapid urbanization and fast growing population has resulted congestion in the urban area. Hence, to maintain the quality of life, health, convenience and comfort, planning of land use and construction activities require control on it by some regulations, which are nothing but General Development Control Regulations. In India, for framing the regulations, all Authorities take “The National Building Code” as the base.

A Study of The Opinions regarding Reforms for Teacher Education

In the present context when it is proposed to bring a nationwide uniformity in the syllabus, there is a need to look into the goals & practices of the teacher education programme. Teacher educators are the best source to suggest reforms. Rajput and Walia (2001) quoted Cochran Smith who notes that, “The question that is currently driving reform and policy in teacher education is what I refer to as the outcomes question.

Regaining Missed Opportunities: The Role Of Agriculture Post-Separation Development In Sudan

Agricultural sector is play a vital role in the Sudan economy and is considered to be the backbone of industrial development in the country. Sudan lost both south Sudan and oil revenues, the poverty increased among Sudanese. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to examine the role of agriculture in post-separation development in Sudan. However, it missed opportunities on a number of occasions due to inappropriate economic policies, continues recent region conflicts. The key massage from the studies examined in this paper is that agricultural sector in Sudan still face many challenges.

Status of Migrant Construction Workers - A Case Study of Surat City

Since independence, India has witnessed of rapid urbanization, the pace of urbanization is not only due to the natural increase in population growth, but it has been mainly caused by the heavy influx of rural migrant in urban areas (Ganguly, 2009; Ledent 1982), especially in the large sided cities. The high rate of migration in the urban areas in India is due to the availability of higher employment opportunity. One of the most important sector which leads to high migration in urban area is construction sector.  The present study focuses on the migrant construction workers in Surat city.

Application Of Social Work Competencies And Techniques By The Non-Government Organizations In Bangladesh: A Study Based On Sylhet City Corporation

Bangladesh has witnessed a substantial growth of non-government organizations (NGOs) after the independence, especially from 1980s. These NGOs have been engaged in multifarious development activities all over the country and in the international platform. Grameen Bank is a Noble Laureate in Peace and BRAC has got recognition as one of the largest NGOs in whole globe. It is a recognized fact that government organizations (GOs) must work along with NGOs for the socioeconomic-cultural development of the country, especially developing state like Bangladesh.

Forward and Reverse Genetic Tools for Investigating Gene Function

Genetics and molecular genomic approaches have been changed our perception towards biological processes. Reverse genetics describes the “gene to phenotype”approach, with which functions of a gene of interest can be examined by disrupting the gene expression at physiological level. Forward genetics is a “phenotype to gene” approach with which genes involved in a biological pathway can be identified through the screening of populations that contain random modifications throughout the genome, altering the gene function.

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES BY PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS OF INDIA

In banking parlance, Corporate Governance refers to conducting the affairs of a banking organisation in a manner that gives a fair deal to all the stakeholders i.e. shareholders, employee’s regulatory authority, bank customers and society at large. The distinctive features of the banking sector demands extensive attention on the quality of governance systems. Looking to the importance of corporate governance, SEBI has mandated corporate governance reporting practices for all the Indian listed companies vide CLAUSE 49.
