 Abstract

This research analyses the evolving role of literature in instilling environmental awareness, discussing Rachel Carson's Silent Spring (1962) and Claire Vaye Watkins' Gold Fame Citrus (2015) based on ecocriticism and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Based on qualitative textual analysis and comparative literary approach, this research investigates the ways in which these works describe environmental deterioration, human responsibility, and sustainability themes. Employing crucial environmental theory--deep ecology and posthumanism--the research investigates the ideological and thematic grounds for both novels. Carson's Silent Spring, widely recognized for initiating the contemporary environmental movement, critiques the rampant application of pesticides like DDT and contests human-centered views that favor economic development over ecological health. Her application of scientific data and convincing writing supports biodiversity preservation and public health, reflecting the fundamental ecological principle of nature's inherent worth. The research places Carson's work in the ecocritical framework, emphasizing literature's function as a means for environmental advocacy and public awareness. By contrast, Watkins' Gold Fame Citrus imagines a desolate future of climactic catastrophe and water scarcity in the American Southwest. Through the use of speculative fiction, Watkins critiques passivity in society and ecological disregard, exploring how climate change affects identity, agency, and social structures. The novel is centered on women's lives and vulnerabilities in a resource-scarce world and is in tune with ecofeminist concerns, while its post-humanist stance challenges traditional human-nature hierarchies and envisions different modes of ecological consciousness. The comparative analysis reveals that while Carson uses a scientific and factual approach to generate urgency and influence policy, Watkins uses narrative creativity to accentuate the long-term consequences of environmental neglect. Together, these works illustrate literature's capacity to educate and encourage action, linking scientific discourse, community engagement, and advocacy for policy reform. This study discovers that ecocriticism is critical in shaping ecological ethics, promoting interdisciplinarity, and driving sustainable approaches. In the face of mounting climate crises, literary narratives offer robust channels for driving environmental consciousness and inspiring profound change.

 Abstract

Green Grocery is a MERN stack-based digital platform developed to overcome key challenges in Indian agriculture, including middlemen exploitation, limited market access, and low digital literacy among farmers [5][7]. This study investigates the effectiveness of integrating modern web technologies to create an inclusive and accessible agri-commerce system. The platform facilitates direct farmer-to-vendor interactions through product listings, real-time chat, and secure payment integration using Razorpay [2][3]. It supports multilingual communication and voice-to-text input via Google APIs to accommodate users with low literacy levels [5][8]. A responsive React.js frontend and a secure Node.js backend ensures a smooth user experience and efficient data flow [7]. Additional features such as customizable delivery options, vendor feedback mechanisms, and an admin dashboard further enhance its functionality and manageability [3][4][6]. Analysis of the platform's impact demonstrates improved market accessibility, reduced dependency on intermediaries, and increased digital engagement among rural users [3][7][9]. The research concludes that Green Grocery provides a scalable and sustainable solution for bridging the rural-urban divide and fostering equitable growth in the agricultural sector [1][7].

 Abstract

This research paper presents an innovative real-time anti-sleep alert and vehicle control system designed to enhance road safety. The system integrates a drowsiness detection module using an eye-blink sensor, a vibration sensor, and an Arduino microcontroller, along with an automatic engine lock mechanism to prevent accidents caused by driver fatigue. When signs of drowsiness are detected, an immediate alarm is triggered, followed by gradual engine control protocols to halt the vehicle safely if the driver remains unresponsive. Experimental results show high accuracy in drowsiness detection and reliable vehicle immobilization, offering a scalable, low-cost solution for reducing road accidents due to driver fatigue.

 Abstract

The reproductive choices of Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) are matter of concern, particularly as women with intellectual disability have often not been allowed to take decision regarding their reproduction. However equal accessibility to reproductive rights and related services remains a challenge for them in India. The paper seeks to explore the prevailing stereotypes and societal attitudes surrounding parenting, sexuality, and reproductive autonomy that lead to a higher likelihood of sterilization for women with disabilities compared to their non-disabled counterparts. Further it discusses the rights of disabled women in India with reference to their reproductive rights including the area of mental illness and their consent for termination of pregnancy, highlighting the legal, social and institutional challenges they encounter. Women with intellectual disabilities are more vulnerable and likely to experience infringement of their sexual and reproductive rights including pregnancy due to sexual offences, acquisition of sexual transmitted infections, forced sterilisation and unsafe abortions, poorly managed pregnancy, and unjust termination of parental right. The paper also examines the legal and practical dimensions of consent in reproductive decisions among women with IDD in India, highlighting the urgent need to respect their autonomy. Lastly the research aims to contribute to a policy framework that upholds their rights, dignity, and reproductive independence.

 Abstract

Night awakening or Ratrijagaran is a phenomenon that involves extended wakefulness during nighttime hours, a practice influenced by cultural, social and individual factors. This research project delves into the multifaceted effects of Ratrijagaran on human health, behavioural and psychology, integrating insights from modern sleep science and Ayurvedic principles. The study examines the psychological consequences of Ratrijagaran including circadian rhythm disruption, alterations in cortisol levels and the onset of sleep disorders such as insomnia. Parallelly, the Ayurvedic perspective highlights Vataand Pitta imbalances caused by irregular sleep cycles, which are linked to mental fatigue, digestive issues and compromised immunity. To ground these theoretical insights, a comprehensive survey was conducted, encompassing questions about general sleep patterns, the frequency of Night awakening and it's perceived effects on physical and mental health. The data revealed trends in how nocturnal habits influence cognitive performance, emotional stability and overall well-being. This approach ensures a comprehensive understanding of both the short term and long term consequences of this practice. Through this project, we aim to provide insights into the coping mechanisms employed by individuals, ranging from meditation and structured sleep schedules to nutritional adjustments. By harmonizing scientific research and traditional wisdom, this study not only highlights the adverse effects of Ratrijagaran but also provides actionable recommendations for mitigating it's impact. The findings aim to foster awareness and encourage the adoption of balanced practices that support holistic health in a fast paced world.

 Abstract

Jaypala (Croton tiglium Linn.), a traditional medicinal plant widely used in Ayurveda, holds significant therapeutic potential due to its strong purgative properties. Despite its benefits, the plant is classified as Upavisha (semi-poisonous) because of its inherent toxicity, primarily found in its seeds. This research explores the traditional and scientific approaches to detoxifying Jaypala seeds through Shodhana (purification) methods, which significantly reduce its harmful effects. The word Upavisha means nearer to Visha i.e. drugs which possess the same qualities of visha, but not that much potent. Jayapala (Croton tiglium) is one among the Upavisha and a well-known plant in Indian System of Medicine as certain Number of formulations include this drug as an ingredient after proper purification. Also it is one of the known purgative Drug in Ayurveda with huge therapeutic values. This review article includes overall information about the plant Jayapala, Its botanical description, Toxicological aspect, treatment medico legal aspects in both Ayurveda and Modern toxicology, Its Shodhana (purification) processes.
