Summary '?????????? ??? ??????????' means a healthy body is the means of religion. This quote by the great poet Kalidas is absolutely true. Be it spiritual progress or worldly rise, both are possible only when the body which is its means is energetic. The importance of Ayurveda in the fitness and sustainable health of the body has been universally recognized in ancient Indian knowledge. Currently, the various horrors of Covid-19, which has arisen as a global crisis because of coronavirus, have once again made Ayurveda and naturopathy universally accepted. Ayurveda is a different part of our life. Ayurveda has an important role in the elimination of diseases. There is an interdependent relationship between nature and man. Nature is a boon given by God to man. All the units of nature - water, fire, sun, air and soil continue to benefit man in some form or the other. Our sages have wished for '????? ???: ????' i.e. to live happily for 100 years. Which is possible through proper healthy lifestyle and naturopathy.

 Abstract

Mental health issues are increasingly prevalent, necessitating reliable and automated diagnostic tools. This study leverages survey and behavioral data to predict mental health illnesses using Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest, and Decision Tree algorithms. The system comprises two essential modules: Admin and User. The Admin module facilitates dataset management, preprocessing, model training, and performance comparison through visual analytics. The User module allows individuals to sign up, log in, and receive mental health predictions from trained models. By integrating various machine learning techniques, the system enhances diagnostic accuracy and model efficiency. This approach minimizes reliance on traditional survey-based evaluations while enabling real-time, user-friendly mental health detection. Machine learning-driven mental health prediction holds significant potential for expanding access to early assessment and intervention.

 Abstract

Susan Hill's The Woman in Black is a gothic novel rich in symbolism, which enhances its themes of fear, loss, and the supernatural. The titular character, the Woman in Black, serves as a potent symbol of unresolved grief and vengeance, haunting the living as a manifestation of past traumas. The isolated Eel Marsh House, with its decaying structure and oppressive atmosphere, symbolizes entrapment and the inescapability of the past. The recurring motifs of fog, darkness, and silence further amplify the novel's eerie tone, representing confusion, the unknown, and the suppression of truth. Through these symbols, Hill explores the psychological impact of unresolved sorrow and the enduring power of memory, creating a narrative that transcends mere ghost story conventions to delve into deeper human emotions and fears.

 Abstract

Civil services are the backbone of governance in India, responsible for policy implementation, administration, and public service delivery. They play a crucial role in nation-building by ensuring stability, enforcing laws, and executing welfare programs. However, inefficiencies such as bureaucratic delays, lack of specialization, and political interference have historically affected their effectiveness. This paper explores how the role of civil services has evolved post-2014, comparing it with the pre-2014 system and analyzing the impact of key reforms. Before 2014, India's civil services operated in a rigid structure characterized by seniority-based promotions, limited performance evaluations, and a slow decision-making process. Political interference in transfers and appointments often disrupted policy continuity. However, after 2014, major reforms aimed at making the system more transparent, accountable, and technology-driven were introduced. Initiatives such as Mission KarmYogi, lateral entry of experts, the minimum tenure policy, and e-governance platforms like CPGRAMS, Direct Benefit Transfers (DBT), and e-HRMS have significantly improved efficiency and service delivery. Despite these advancements, challenges remain. Some bureaucrats resist change, political influence persists in certain areas, and the full implementation of reforms is still in progress. This paper examines both the successes and limitations of these reforms while proposing strategies to further strengthen civil services for better governance. Overall, while India's civil services have become more effective post-2014, continuous efforts are needed to enhance their responsiveness, efficiency, and adaptability to modern governance needs.

 Abstract

This study explores the perceived financial literacy among the Scheduled Castes in Ahmedabad. Data were collected from 667 participants using a structured, close-ended questionnaire distributed through Google Forms, focusing on 14 key areas of financial literacy such as understanding basic financial concepts, managing household budgets, and identifying financial products. The findings show that respondents generally rate their financial knowledge as moderate, with strong positive relationships among different literacy dimensions, indicating that those confident in one area often feel similarly across others. Interestingly, the results also suggest a cautious investment approach, as individuals with higher perceived financial literacy tend to invest a smaller portion of their salary. Moreover, family and friends, along with traditional media sources like newspapers, are the main channels through which respondents receive financial information. Overall, the study highlights the need for targeted financial education initiatives to empower this community and enhance their financial decision-making skills.

 Abstract

This study has investigated the economic conditions of Self-Help Group (SHG) members in Chitradurga City by examining the changes in their socio-economic status before and after joining SHGs. The primary objective has been to assess the impact of SHGs on members' income levels, financial stability, access to microfinance, and overall livelihood. The research has utilized a descriptive design, incorporating both primary and secondary data. A sample of 125 SHG members from various socio-economic backgrounds has been selected using a stratified random sampling technique. Data have been analysed through paired t-tests to identify significant differences before and after joining SHGs. The findings have indicated a notable improvement in the economic conditions of members, particularly in income levels, financial stability, and access to microfinance. A significant reduction in the number of members with low-income levels and an increase in financial stability ratings have suggested the positive impact of SHGs. Moreover, members' access to microfinance resources has improved substantially, with a marked increase in those reporting enhanced financial independence and entrepreneurial activities. However, some members have experienced minimal changes in employment opportunities and financial conditions. This study has highlighted the potential of SHGs in promoting socio-economic empowerment, particularly for marginalized women, and has emphasized their role in fostering sustainable economic development.

 Abstract

This article examines a wide range of creative conservative explanations for social inequality. Child labor is one of the oldest issues that continues to exist today. Child laborers were compelled to work in urban factories during that time, which contributed to the outcome of the Industrial Revolution. Child abuse is a severe issue that hinders children's emotional, sexual, and physical development. The youngster may suffer severe, permanent psychological harm as a result of these problems. A Little Life (2015) by Hanya Yanagihara examines the problematic framework of trauma theory. Jude, the main character, was sexually abused as a youngster, and the terrible consequences are depicted as a self-harming adult in this divergent story.A Little Life is undoubtedly a tiresome, verbose, and incredibly gloomy book that also portrayed the lives of working-class and impoverished children. The treatment of orphans in the contemporary world and how it destroys their lives are the primary goals of this essay. Additionally, it draws attention to A Little Life's topics, storytelling styles, and tactics. Thus, this essay aims to examine the book A Little Life from the standpoint of trauma. Furthermore, it examines the trauma ideologies that can be examined in relation to the notions of child abuse.

 Abstract

This study explores the self and peer perception of children with locomotor disabilities in secondary schools and its impact on their educational aspirations. Using a causal-comparative approach, the research examines how social acceptance, teacher support, parental involvement, and school policies influence academic motivation and performance. Findings reveal that positive peer interactions boost confidence and engagement, while social exclusion leads to lower self-esteem and academic struggles. Teachers and school administrators play a vital role in fostering inclusion through adaptive teaching methods and anti-discrimination policies. Additionally, parental and community support significantly enhances resilience and aspiration levels. The study highlights the psychological challenges faced by students with locomotor disabilities and emphasizes the need for structured interventions such as peer mentoring, counseling, and accessibility improvements. Recommendations include strengthening inclusive education policies, enhancing teacher training, and promoting disability awareness programs. This research underscores the importance of creating an equitable educational environment for all students.

 Abstract

Cloud computing, which provides adequate storage and computation capability, has been a prevalent information infrastructure. Secure data sharing is a basic demand when data was outsourced to a cloud server. Attribute-based proxy re-encryption has been a promising approach that allows secure encrypted data sharing on clouds. With attribute-based proxy re-encryption, a delegator can designate a set of shared users through issuing a re-encryption key which will be used by the cloud server to transform the delegator's encrypted data to the shared users'. However, the existing attribute-based proxy re-encryption schemes lack a mechanism of revoking users from the sharing set which is critical for data sharing systems. Therefore, in this article, we propose a concrete attribute-based proxy re-encryption with direct revocation mechanism (ABPRE-DR) for encrypted data sharing that enables the cloud server to directly revoke users from the original sharing set involved in the re-encryption key. We implemented the new schemes and evaluated its performance. The experimental results show that the proposed ABPRE-DR scheme is efficient and practical.
