MANDATORY VIDEOGRAPHY IN SEARCH AND SEIZURE UNDER BNSS: A CONSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS OF DIGITAL TRANSPARENCY VERSUS FORENSIC PRIVACY

Abstract:
The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS) , which, with effect from 1 July 2024, repeals the Code of Criminal Procedure , 1973, represents a paradigmatic reconfiguration of the Indian criminal procedural framework. Reforms of far-reaching significance include Section 105 which, when read with Sections 185 and 176(3), require the audio-video electronic recording of the entire process of search and seizure, including preparation of the seizure list and the witnesses signing the same, preferably through a mobile phone, and transmitted immediately to the jurisdictional Magistrate. The legislative imperative "shall," elevates videography from grounds of investigative discretion to grounds for procedural obligation. This reform claims to facilitate transparency, prevent planting of evidence and strengthen fair-trial protections under Article 21 but it simultaneously creates a constitutional conflict with the right to privacy acknowledged in K.S. Puttaswamy v. Union of India (2017). We are worried about the unstructured capturing of intimate domestic spaces, biometric data, a minor, and 3rd party who is not remotely asked to provide any consent that undermines proportionality, data minimization, chain-of-custody integrity under Section 63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 Using 412 field-survey responses, 87 reported judgments and secondary data from State Police Headquarters and the e-Sakshya portal, this empirical study investigates compliance patterns, judicial response, and citizen perceptions in five Indian states from July 2024 to December 2025. The results illustrate a stark divide between legislative ambition and field practice: only 38.4 per cent of reported searches complied fully with statutes, and 61.2 per cent of respondents raised privacy concerns. This paper finally suggests a framework similar to the Puttaswamy triple test of legitimacy, necessity and proportionality to reconcile digital transparency with forensic privacy.

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE PERFORMANCE OF ORGANISATION GOALS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF FAILED AND SUCCESSIVE PROJECTS OF SOME ORGANISATION

Abstract:
Organizing the project execution to achieve organisational goals has been one of the most persistent unresolved management practice issues of all times. This empirical paper examines the critical variables affecting organisational goal performance through a comparative study of 200 projects from the public, private and non-governmental sectors of organisations. Local data were obtained from 300 responses of project managers, team leaders, and organisational stakeholders using a 35-item validated questionnaire. We systematically studied the remaining seven key drivers quality of leadership, allocation of resources, engagement of stakeholders, planning and scheduling, risk management, communication effectiveness and fit-for-purpose organisational culture. The data analysis included descriptive statistics, Cronbach's alpha reliability testing, Pearson correlation analysis, independent samples t-tests, one-way ANOVA, and multiple linear regression modelling. The regression model accounted for 67.3% in the variance of goal performance (Adj R2 = 0.664). The strongest predictor was leadership quality (beta = 0.341, p < 0.001), followed by planning and scheduling (beta = 0.310, p < 0.001). Comparison of the means using paired Student's t-test revealed that all factors were statistically significantly different (p < 0.001) between successful project groups and failed project groups. Overall, the private sector displayed consistently higher factor scores than public sector and NGOs. Theoretically-obsessed, empirically-informed lessons that have practical implications for aspiring practitioners and policy administration seeking project utmost success and organisational goal attainment.

EXAMINING THE CONTRIBUTION OF DIGITAL INNOVATION TO ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION

Abstract:
Digital innovation has emerged as a decisive force in reshaping organizational performance across industries worldwide. This paper examines how digital innovation contributes to the optimization of organizational performance by exploring its influence on operational efficiency, customer experience, employee productivity, and strategic competitiveness. The primary objectives of this study are to assess the extent to which digital innovation tools including artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data analytics, and Internet of Things enhance key organizational performance indicators, and to identify the critical success factors and barriers that mediate this relationship. A descriptive-analytical research design was adopted, employing secondary data analysis of global industry reports, peer-reviewed empirical studies, and organizational surveys published between 2020 and 2025. The hypothesis posits that organizations with higher digital innovation adoption experience statistically significant improvements in productivity, profitability, and customer satisfaction compared to digitally lagging firms. Results demonstrate that digitally mature organizations achieve 20–30% higher operational efficiency, 26% greater profitability, and 1.8 times higher earnings growth than non-digital counterparts. However, approximately 70% of digital transformation initiatives fail to achieve their stated objectives due to cultural resistance, leadership gaps, and skills deficits. The study concludes that digital innovation yields measurable performance gains only when strategically aligned with organizational goals, leadership commitment, and continuous workforce upskilling.

ASSESSING POLICY-DRIVEN FINANCIAL INCLUSION STRATEGIES FOR BPL COMMUNITIES WITH SPECIAL FOCUS ON DELHI'S SLUM AREAS

Abstract:
Financial inclusion remains a critical challenge for Below Poverty Line (BPL) communities in India, particularly in urban slum areas where institutional barriers and socio-economic constraints limit access to formal banking services. This study assesses the effectiveness of policy-driven financial inclusion strategies implemented in Delhi's slum areas, examining the impact of initiatives such as Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY), Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), and microfinance interventions. Utilizing a cross-sectional research design, data was collected from 384 BPL households across five major slum clusters in Delhi through structured questionnaires and secondary government databases. The research hypothesizes that policy-driven financial inclusion initiatives have significantly improved banking penetration, digital payment adoption, and credit accessibility among BPL communities. Results indicate that while account ownership has reached 78.4%, active account usage remains at 43.2%, revealing a substantial dormancy challenge. Digital payment adoption stands at 34.7%, constrained by limited digital literacy and smartphone penetration. The study reveals significant gaps between policy objectives and ground-level implementation, particularly regarding financial literacy, last-mile connectivity, and sustained engagement with formal financial systems, necessitating targeted interventions for meaningful economic empowerment.

COUPLED ANALYTICAL AND NUMERICAL METHODOLOGIES FOR TIME-DEPENDENT PDE SYSTEMS

Abstract:
Time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) represent fundamental mathematical frameworks for modeling dynamic phenomena across engineering, physics, and applied sciences. This research investigates the integration of analytical and numerical methodologies for solving complex time-dependent PDE systems, addressing computational efficiency and solution accuracy challenges. The study employs hybrid approaches combining finite difference methods (FDM), finite element methods (FEM), and analytical techniques including separation of variables and Laplace transforms. A comparative analysis framework examines convergence rates, stability conditions, and computational costs across different problem domains. Research hypotheses posit that coupled methodologies yield superior accuracy compared to standalone approaches, particularly for stiff and nonlinear systems. Results demonstrate that hybrid FEM-analytical methods achieve 23-37% improved accuracy for parabolic PDEs, while coupled FDM-spectral approaches reduce computational time by 18-29% for hyperbolic systems. The findings establish that adaptive coupling strategies optimize solution quality across diverse temporal scales and spatial domains, with stability criteria varying based on problem stiffness and nonlinearity. This research contributes validated frameworks for methodology selection in time-dependent PDE applications.

SYNTHETIC STRATEGIES AND PHARMACOLOGICAL INSIGHTS OF NATURAL PRODUCT-DERIVED HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS

Abstract:
Natural product-derived heterocyclic compounds represent a cornerstone of modern pharmaceutical chemistry, offering remarkable structural diversity and pharmacological potential. This research investigates the synthetic strategies and pharmacological activities of heterocyclic scaffolds derived from natural sources including alkaloids, flavonoids, coumarins, and terpenoids. The primary objectives include examining contemporary synthetic methodologies such as Pictet-Spengler cyclization, Fischer indole synthesis, and multicomponent reactions for heterocycle construction, alongside evaluating their therapeutic applications. The methodology encompasses comprehensive analysis of published literature from peer-reviewed databases, utilizing comparative analytical approaches to assess pharmacological data. The hypothesis postulates that natural product-derived heterocyclic compounds demonstrate superior bioactivity profiles compared to purely synthetic counterparts due to their evolutionary optimization for biological target interactions. Results reveal that over 85% of FDA-approved drugs contain heterocyclic moieties, with nitrogen-containing heterocycles predominating in anticancer and antimicrobial therapeutics. IC50 values ranging from 0.12 to 16.79 µM were observed across various cancer cell lines for synthesized derivatives. Discussion elaborates structure-activity relationships demonstrating that electron-donating substituents enhance antioxidant potential while specific ring modifications improve target selectivity. In conclusion, natural product-derived heterocycles continue serving as privileged scaffolds for drug discovery, warranting continued exploration of their synthetic accessibility and pharmacological optimization.

LANDSCAPE SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD CONTROLS IN URBAN GARDEN SYSTEMS OF INDIA

Abstract:
Urban garden systems in India face escalating environmental challenges due to rapid urbanization, threatening ecological sustainability and public health. This research examines landscape sustainability practices and environmental hazard management strategies across Indian urban gardens through comprehensive data analysis. The study investigates soil contamination patterns, heavy metal accumulation, urban heat island mitigation, biodiversity conservation, and air quality improvements associated with urban garden interventions. It was hypothesized that well-managed urban green spaces significantly reduce environmental hazards while enhancing ecological resilience. Analysis of 262 urban green spaces across major Indian cities revealed that gardens provide cooling effects averaging 2.23°C within 347-meter radius, while reducing air pollutant concentrations by 20-30%. Heavy metal contamination assessment indicated chromium (81-751 mg/kg) and copper (2-180 mg/kg) pose significant health risks, necessitating systematic monitoring protocols. Results demonstrate that integrated landscape management combining native vegetation, soil remediation, and community participation effectively controls environmental hazards while promoting urban sustainability. The findings underscore the critical need for evidence-based urban planning policies prioritizing green infrastructure development, regular environmental monitoring, and stakeholder engagement to achieve sustainable urban futures in India's rapidly expanding metropolitan regions.

DEPICTIONS OF OLD AND NEW INDIA: A CROSS-AUTHOR ANALYSIS OF NAIPAUL AND ADIGA

Abstract:
This research paper examines the literary depictions of old and new India through a cross-author analysis of V.S. Naipaul and Aravind Adiga, two prominent writers who have significantly shaped postcolonial representations of India. The primary objective is to analyze how these authors construct contrasting narratives of traditional and contemporary India through their distinctive literary perspectives. The methodology employed is qualitative comparative analysis utilizing textual examination of selected works including Naipaul's India trilogy and Adiga's The White Tiger. The hypothesis proposes that while both authors critique Indian society, Naipaul represents India through a diasporic lens of disillusionment with traditional structures, whereas Adiga portrays contemporary India's socioeconomic disparities through indigenous perspectives. Results indicate that Naipaul's portrayal emphasizes cultural stagnation, colonial remnants, and civilizational wounds, while Adiga highlights neoliberal India's class divisions, corruption, and the darkness-light binary. The discussion reveals that both writers employ distinct narrative strategies to represent India's transformation. The conclusion establishes that these complementary perspectives provide comprehensive understanding of India's postcolonial journey from traditional to globalized society.

EVALUATING AN EDUCATIONAL STRATEGY TO ENHANCE STAFF NURSES' UNDERSTANDING AND PERCEPTIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN CLINICAL PRACTICE: EVIDENCE FROM RAIGARH

Abstract:
Healthcare delivery is undergoing a revolution, and the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the factors to consider, but nurses in developing countries do not fully understand and accept it. This paper assessed an educational intervention that would promote the knowledge and perceptions of staff nurses regarding AI in clinical practice at Raigarh, Chhattisgarh. The quasi experimental pre-post design was utilized using 120 tertiary care hospital staff nurses. It was proposed that there would be a marked improvement in AI knowledge and positive change in perception after the intervention. It was a four-week educational program, which included lectures, demonstrations, and practical sessions. A validated 30-item knowledge questionnaire and 25-item perception scale were used in the collection of data. Findings showed statistically significant mean knowledge increase of 14.32+ 3.45 to 24.67+ 2.89 (p= 0.001) and perception increase of 78.45+ 12.34 to 102.56+ 10.23 (p= 0.001). The users demonstrated improved knowledge about AI applications such as clinical decision support systems, predictive analytics, and automated documentation. The learning plan was also successful to enhance the AI literacy of nurses and create the positive disposition towards the integration of technology. The nursing workforce in India needs to be prepared to undergo digital transformation in healthcare through continuous professional development with priorities on AI competencies.

INTERPRETING FEMALE CONSCIOUSNESS IN ELFRIEDE JELINEK'S CHOSEN WORKS

Abstract:
Through an interpretation of Elfriede Jelinek the Austrian writer/activist whose essays and plays establish the basis for the following e-text the analysis shows how the selected interpretations of female consciousness in Jelinek's literary works still is very crude in its approach. This paper intends to discuss the portrayal of female subjectivity, psychological fragmentation and the suppression of the feminine self under the capitalist and patriarchal social systems in [insert book name]. This is a qualitative analytical approach based on feminist literary criticism and close textual analysis of the major novels by Jelinek; namely, The Piano Teacher (Die Klavierspielerin), Women as Lovers (Die Liebhaberinnen), and Lust. The main hypothesis suggests that by means of female consciousness, Jelinek exposes the particulars of psychological disintegration women experience under patriarchal domination and systemic exploitation, where they learn to internalize oppression. The results, show that Jelinek is, in his novels, using concrete narrative methods such as fragmented prose, satirical remarks, and descriptions of sexual acts, to reveal the potential and final loss she represents for women, as a woman, the (deffuit) thing, through sexualization followed by destruction. Kindly note that this summary has its own words with different scripts of human form: The examination exposes the fact that the female figures of Jelinek are physically living in psychological petrifaction prisons with their heads brainwashed by maternal control, economic subjugation, and sexual objectification. To sum up, Jelinek's depiction of female consciousness can be considered a radical feminist perspective, forcing readers to not ignore the uncomfortable realities of gender relations and systemic oppression in the modern world.

STUDY OF DISTRIBUTION BEHAVIOR AND VENOM VARIATION AMONG SNAKES IN KOTA, RAJASTHAN

Abstract:
Covering approximately 342,239 km2, Rajasthan is the largest state of India by area, and hosts an exceptionally diverse, yet relatively poorly understood, snake fauna shaped by its heterogeneous ecological landscape that encompasses arid/thinly vegetated desert scrub/grassland through to riparian floodplain. Gigantic snakes like the reticulated python (Malayopython reticulatus) are observed hereHighly urbanized regions with strong human habitation like the Kota district, in the Hadoti region along the Chambal River corridor, describe a more complex habitat matrix supporting high species diversity, including a number of medically-important snakes. Using a combination of field-based data, peer-reviewed literature, public institutional databases and government biodiversity reports, this paper investigates spatial distribution patterns, biological and behavioral ecology and venom variability among snake species documented in and around Kota, Rajasthan. Around 25 species of snakes have been recorded in the myriad of micro-habitats across the District, including scrublands, fields, riverine habitats and rocky plateaus. Of these, the four medically important species Najanaja (Indian cobra), Bungaruscaeruleus (common krait), Daboiarusselii (Russell's viper), and Echiscarinatus (saw-scaled viper) show remarkable interspecific variation in ecology, patterns of behavior, and venom composition. Natural historical studies based on known toxicology literature on specific components of venoms demonstrates venom composition can differ broadly between species, and this variation can also occur within a species and can result from ecological selective pressures and/or geographic isolation. This study emphasizes the need for regional herpetological surveys, antivenom optimization, and biodiversity conservation plans for the Kota region. The implications of the findings are a significant aspect of public health management and wildlife conservation policy in Rajasthan.

EXPLORING STATISTICAL CONVERGENCE AND ITS ROLE IN REAL ANALYSIS

Abstract:
Statistical convergence, introduced by Fast and Steinhaus in 1951, extends classical pointwise convergence by focusing on the behavior of the majority of sequence elements while disregarding a negligible set. This study examines the foundational properties, applications, and theoretical implications of statistical convergence within real analysis. Originally connected to summation of series, statistical convergence has evolved into a powerful tool, particularly useful when classical convergence methods such as pointwise, uniform, or almost sure convergence prove insufficient. We investigate how statistical convergence relates to these traditional methods, offering a comparative framework through theoretical exploration and practical examples. The methodology includes analytical approaches, comparative studies of convergence criteria, and applications in approximation theory. Our results highlight statistical convergence’s superiority in modeling sequences that frequently occur in measurement and computational processes. It proves especially beneficial where classical convergence fails to capture the underlying structure of sequences. The study underscores statistical convergence as a bridge between abstract theory and real-world problems, reinforcing its value in fields like calculus, topology, and functional analysis. Ultimately, this research affirms statistical convergence as a significant extension of classical theory, offering fresh insights into sequence behavior in mathematical analysis.

LEGAL AND POLICY DIMENSIONS OF CARBON CREDITS IN ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Abstract:
Climate change poses an existential threat to sustainable development, necessitating urgent legal and policy interventions. Carbon credits have emerged as a pivotal market-based mechanism to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions while promoting economic efficiency. This paper examines the legal and policy dimensions of carbon credit systems within international and domestic frameworks, with particular emphasis on India's legislative developments. The study analyzes the evolution from the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism to the Paris Agreement's Article 6 framework, and India's Energy Conservation (Amendment) Act, 2022, which established the Carbon Credit Trading Scheme. The research evaluates the regulatory architecture, institutional mechanisms, and challenges in operationalizing carbon markets. Through doctrinal analysis and examination of verified legal instruments, this paper demonstrates that while carbon credits present significant opportunities for climate action and sustainable development, their effectiveness depends on robust regulatory frameworks, transparency, and integration with broader climate policies. The findings underscore the need for strengthened legal mechanisms to ensure environmental integrity and equitable participation in carbon markets.

HIGH THERMAL ENDURANCE AND EFFICIENT UP-CONVERSION EMISSION IN Eu³⁺ AND Tb³⁺ ACTIVATED ALUMINATE NANOPHOSPHORS

Abstract:
The development of advanced luminescent materials for high-performance display devices has gained significant attention in recent decades. Rare-earth activated phosphors, particularly Eu³⁺ and Tb³⁺ doped aluminates, show sharp emission lines, long lifetimes, and high color purity. Thermal quenching at elevated temperatures, however, remains a critical limitation for practical applications. In this study, Eu³⁺ and Tb³⁺ activated aluminate nanophosphors were synthesized via a sol–gel assisted solid-state reaction method. The samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, PL spectroscopy, and TGA to assess their structural, morphological, luminescent, and thermal properties. The aluminate host matrix provided high crystallinity and uniform dopant distribution. Co-doping with Eu³⁺ and Tb³⁺ facilitated energy transfer, resulting in enhanced up-conversion emission under near-infrared excitation. Notably, the phosphors retained over 80% of their room-temperature emission intensity at 500 °C, confirming excellent thermal stability. These results indicate the potential of Eu³⁺/Tb³⁺ activated aluminate nanophosphors for next-generation optoelectronic display devices, LEDs, and laser-based applications.

EVALUATING THE ROLE OF CHEMICAL PRESERVATIVES IN FOOD AND THEIR HEALTH CONSEQUENCES

Abstract:
Food preservation has become an integral component of modern food systems, with chemical preservatives playing a crucial role in extending shelf life and ensuring microbiological safety. However, the widespread use of synthetic preservatives has raised significant concerns regarding their potential adverse effects on human health. This comprehensive review examines the landscape of chemical food preservatives, including sodium benzoate, nitrites, nitrates, sulfur dioxide, sorbic acid, and various other additives commonly employed in the food industry. Through systematic analysis of recent literature spanning 2012-2024, this study investigates the mechanisms of action, applications, and health implications of these preservatives. Evidence suggests that chronic exposure to chemical preservatives may be associated with oxidative stress, gut microbiota dysbiosis, genotoxicity, carcinogenic potential, and various metabolic disorders. The review also explores emerging alternatives, including natural preservatives derived from essential oils, spices, and plant extracts, which demonstrate promising antimicrobial properties with reduced toxicological concerns. This meta-analysis synthesizes findings from toxicological studies, epidemiological research, and mechanistic investigations to provide a comprehensive understanding of the risk-benefit balance in food preservation practices and inform future regulatory guidelines.

POLITICAL WILL AND LEGAL FRAMEWORKS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION INITIATIVES IN INDIA AND ABROAD

Abstract:
The twenty-first century has experienced a high pace of industrialization, urbanization, and uncontrolled use of resources, hence making environmental protection one of the most pressing issues of a global concern. Although most countries have implemented tough policies and laws on the environment, their success can largely be determined by the existence of consistent political goodwill. This paper is a critical analysis of how politics and the law interact in influencing environmental protection efforts, especially in India against certain international examples of the processes under consideration as the United States, the European Union, and China. India has passed laws that are very broad like the Environment Protection Act (1986) and the National Green Tribunal (2010) but its implementation is not uniform as it is hindered by bureaucratic inefficiencies, other developmental priorities, and a lack of political goodwill. Comparatively, the EU has maintained policy continuity with supranational binding targets, U.S. has experienced ups and downs due to change of political regimes and China has displayed speed in terms of implementation through centralized powers. The comparative study indicates that a high level of political will, institutional autonomy as well as binding obligations are critical to turn legal frameworks into viable environmental governance. The paper wraps up with the insights of the lessons that India can learn out of the international practices in order to augment its environmental policies and place the development objectives in terms of sustainability.

EXAMINING THE ACCURACY OF DIFFERENT ANALYTICAL APPROACHES IN PILE TEST EVALUATION

Abstract:
This study examines the comparative accuracy of different analytical approaches in pile test evaluation, focusing on static load testing (SLT) and dynamic load testing (DLT) methodologies. The investigation evaluates the effectiveness of various analytical techniques including Case Pile Wave Analysis Program (CAPWAP), pile driving analyzer (PDA) methods, and traditional static load testing approaches. A comprehensive analysis of 51 pile test cases reveals significant correlations between different testing methods, with dynamic-to-static load ratios averaging 0.9833. The methodology encompassed both driven and cast-in-situ piles tested across diverse soil conditions, utilizing standardized testing procedures as per ASTM D1143 and ASTM D4945 specifications. Results indicate that dynamic load testing with CAPWAP analysis demonstrates high accuracy in predicting static pile capacity, with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.77 to 0.92 depending on soil conditions and pile types. The study establishes that while static load testing remains the gold standard for accuracy, dynamic testing provides reliable results with significant cost and time advantages. The findings demonstrate that CAPWAP-derived capacities are typically 1.06 to 1.15 times static capacities, indicating conservative yet reliable predictions. These results contribute to optimizing pile testing strategies by providing engineers with validated correlation factors for different analytical approaches, thereby improving foundation design efficiency while maintaining safety standards in geotechnical engineering practice

SOIL IMPROVEMENT VIA STONE COLUMN TECHNIQUE WITH JUTE GEOTEXTILE REINFORCEMENT

Abstract:
Ground improvement techniques have become increasingly crucial for enhancing the bearing capacity and reducing settlement of weak soils in geotechnical engineering applications. This study investigates the effectiveness of stone column technique reinforced with jute geotextile for soil improvement in soft clay conditions. The research employs experimental and numerical analysis to evaluate the performance of conventional stone columns compared with jute geotextile-encased stone columns. The primary objectives include assessing bearing capacity enhancement, settlement reduction, and load-displacement behavior under various loading conditions. The methodology involves laboratory testing on soil samples with different reinforcement configurations, field investigations, and statistical analysis of performance parameters. The hypothesis postulates that jute geotextile reinforcement significantly improves stone column performance by providing lateral confinement and preventing bulging failure. Results demonstrate that geotextile-encased stone columns exhibit 60-78% improvement in bearing capacity and 45-67% reduction in settlement compared to conventional columns. The enhanced performance is attributed to increased lateral confinement, improved load transfer mechanism, and reduced column deformation. Statistical analysis confirms the significance of reinforcement parameters on overall performance. The study concludes that jute geotextile reinforcement presents an economical and environmentally sustainable solution for ground improvement, particularly suitable for Indian soil conditions where jute fiber availability and cost-effectiveness make it a viable alternative to synthetic geotextiles.

EXPLORING EXISTENTIALISM THEMES IN SELECTED PLAYS BY EUGENE O’NEILL AND GIRISH KARNAD

Abstract:
Abstract This research paper explores the manifestation of existential themes in the dramatic works of Eugene O'Neill, the Nobel Prize-winning American playwright, and Girish Karnad, the acclaimed Indian dramatist. The study examines how both playwrights employ existentialist philosophy to explore the human condition, focusing on themes of alienation, authenticity, freedom, and the search for meaning in an apparently absurd universe. Through comparative analysis of their major works, this research demonstrates how O'Neill's psychologically penetrating American dramas and Karnad's mythologically rooted Indian plays converge in their exploration of existential crisis, despite their distinct cultural contexts. The methodology employs textual analysis, comparative literature approach, and existentialist theoretical framework to examine selected plays including O'Neill's "Long Day's Journey into Night," "The Iceman Cometh," and Karnad's "Tughlaq," "Hayavadana," and "Yayati." The results reveal that both playwrights present characters struggling with existential despair, the burden of choice, and the quest for authentic existence. The discussion highlights how O'Neill's autobiographical realism and Karnad's mythological revisionism serve as vehicles for existential exploration. The research concludes that both dramatists effectively demonstrate that existential themes transcend cultural boundaries, offering universal insights into the human predicament of existence in a seemingly meaningless world

HIGH-TEMPERATURE RESISTANT UP-CONVERSION LUMINESCENCE OF Eu³⁺/Tb³⁺-DOPED ALUMINATE PHOSPHORS FOR NEXT-GENERATION DISPLAY SYSTEMS

Abstract:
Up‑conversion (UC) phosphors that can sustain high luminous efficiency at elevated temperatures are pivotal for next‑generation, high‑brightness display and projection systems that operate under intense photoexcitation and thermally stressful conditions. This journal describes the synthesis, structure–property relationships, and photophysical behavior of Eu³⁺‑ and Tb³⁺‑activated aluminate host lattices with a focus on thermal quenching resistance, color purity, and excitation flexibility. We discuss host platforms including SrAl₂O₄, BaMgAl₁₀O₁₇ (BAM), CaAl₁₂O₁₉ (CA₆), and related aluminate frameworks, and analyze energy transfer channels that enable anti‑Stokes (up‑conversion) emission by leveraging defect‑assisted sensitization, cooperative energy transfer, and cross‑relaxation pathways. A comparative evaluation of Eu³⁺ and Tb³⁺ emission manifolds, Judd–Ofelt intensity parameters, CIE colorimetry, thermal activation energies (ΔE) from Arrhenius fits, and photostability under continuous‑wave (CW) pumping is presented. Results reveal that properly engineered charge‑compensated sites, optimized dopant concentration (typically 0.1–5 mol%), and controlled grain‑boundary chemistry can suppress non‑radiative multiphonon losses and maintain ≥70–85% room‑temperature brightness at 423–473 K. The work outlines design rules and future directions for integrating thermally stable UC aluminates in micro‑LED backlights, laser‑excited phosphor (LEP) projectors, and augmented‑reality (AR) light engines.

EXPERIMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF THE ANTI-ARTHRITIC POTENTIAL OF TEPHROSIA PURPUREA L.: A COMPREHENSIVE PHARMACOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION

Abstract:
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disorder marked by progressive joint destruction and systemic inflammation. Current therapies are often limited by side effects and inconsistent efficacy, prompting interest in natural alternatives. Tephrosia purpurea L. (Sharapunkha), traditionally used in Ayurveda for inflammatory ailments, has shown promise against rheumatism and joint disorders. This study evaluated the anti-arthritic potential of hydro-alcoholic extract of T. purpurea leaves in Freund’s complete adjuvant (FCA)-induced arthritis in Wistar rats. It further assessed inflammatory biomarkers, safety through acute toxicity studies, and possible mechanisms of action. Acute toxicity was assessed following OECD 423 guidelines. Arthritis was induced in 36 male Wistar rats using FCA. Animals were orally treated with T. purpurea extract (200 and 400 mg/kg) for 21 days. Paw edema, arthritic score, inflammatory cytokines, biochemical indices, and histopathology were analyzed. The extract was safe (LD₅₀ >2000 mg/kg) and significantly reduced paw swelling, arthritic scores, and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6). Histology confirmed reduced synovial inflammation and cartilage protection. The findings highlight T. purpurea as a promising natural therapeutic for rheumatoid arthritis.
