 Abstract

The principle of righteous way of governance which is known as "polity" in modern era is not a new way of governance in our nation. The practice of ancient Indian political system was mainly administered by king as Righteousness (Dharma - which includes Raja Dharma as well as Praja Dharma)with Rama as a model king depicted by sage Valmiki in Ramayana. In this regard, Rama's reign as a kingentails his Dharmic role as the son of a king, as a disciple of Sage Vishwamitra in his formative years, as an obedient son who follows his father's orders(although it might not have looked completely righteous from the public point of view) and departs for forest life along with his younger brother Lakshmana and his wife Sita, as a loving and responsible elder brother who gives advice to Bharatha, as a citizen who follows Dharma in his interactions with people that he comes across in his forest life, as a husband who frees his wife from the clutches of the demon Raavana by defeating and killing him in war, as a crown-prince who returns to his capital after fulfilling his father's orders and as an ideal king who rules his kingdom for several years following RajaDharma. These are good governance practices applicable even in our modern times.

 Abstract

Plato and Aristotle, two of the most influential philosophers in the Ancient World, both had radical views on the nature and capabilities of women. Many of these views were similar, yet somehow Plato became a champion of the female cause, while Aristotle was labelled a male chauvinist. This essay will look to discover whether Plato really was an early feminist, or whether we are looking too far into his ideas.

 Abstract

The shift to remote work has significantly impacted various aspects of employee well-being and performance. As organisations continue to navigate through this transition, it is crucial to understand the implications it has on job satisfaction and mental health. In this study, we aim to explore the multifaceted effects of remote work on employee performance, job satisfaction, and mental health. We will analyse existing literature and conduct primary research to provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities presented by remote work. By shedding light on these impacts, we hope to offer practical recommendations for organisations to effectively support their remote workforce and enhance overall employee well-being. The shift to remote work has not only transformed the way employees carry out their tasks but has also altered the work environment and dynamics. One of the primary considerations of remote work is its influence on employee performance. Research indicates that remote work can lead to increased productivity due to reduced distractions and the flexibility it offers. However, it's also important to consider the potential drawbacks, such as feelings of isolation and difficulty in maintaining work-life balance.

 Abstract

Contracts bloomed into their fullness during the laissez fair era when the concept of volitional freedom of the individual reached its zenith. Then it became the accepted legal norms that two individuals were free to enter into any contract and agree to any terms thereunder, and they would be given effect to. In its essence, contract is that concept of law and in that way, a unique concept of law which permits two individual to make law for themselves; parties are free to enter into and agree to, any terms and undertake any obligations under a contract, and once they do so, they have got to abide by them. The terms of contract and obligations accepted there under are enforceable.

 Abstract

Theory of Decreasing Responsibility thus states that a person may start his financial life with low assets and high liabilities, and therefore may have highest need for insurance at that stage of his life. But as he build up his wealth and his liabilities gets reduced after paying up for loans if any over the years, his need for insurance reduces gradually. He may then reach a point where his requirements for life insurance becomes little to no insurance as thus now he will be able to get self-insure using his accumulated wealth over the period of his life. This stimulates the people to adopt "Buy the Term and Invest the Difference" strategy while making investment in life insurance products. To validate this theory X-curve is used.

 Abstract

The primary goal of this work is to investigate and construct a fingerprint-based passport identification and verification system based on microcontroller matching, which is often utilized in fingerprint approaches. The method consists of deleting fingerprint feature elements from the fingerprint sensor unit and then comparing fingerprints based on how many times the two fingerprints in question have been linked. When they do, the passports' validity for individual verification is confirmed. It's a wonderful method for selecting and positively identifying a specific person. We can use technology to improve security in every location.

 Abstract

In the age of information, communication, and technology, cybersecurity has become a complex and fast changing security challenge (ICT). Cyber threats appear to be infiltrating every nook and cranny of national economies and infrastructure as ICT dependence spreads around the world; in fact, the increased use of computers and Internet-based networking has been accompanied by an increase in cyberattack incidents targeting individuals, businesses, and governments. Certain governments are increasingly viewing ICT as both a battleground for strategic warfare and a strategic asset to be leveraged for national security purposes. This paper examines the role of cybersecurity in the present security discussion, deepening the analysis by looking at the cybersecurity area from India's perspective.

 Abstract

The migration phenomenon, particularly from rural to urban areas, is a significant determinant shaping demographic dynamics globally and in the Indian context. In India, rural-urban migration has profound socio-political and economic implications, impacting population size, composition, and spatial distribution. This research focuses on analysing the drivers, experiences, and consequences of migration from Umla Village to Leh Town, situated in the Ladakh region of India, contributing to the discourse on rural-urban migration in the country. Through a mixed-method approach combining qualitative and quantitative methodologies, the study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of migration dynamics and their impacts on both sending and receiving communities. The findings reveal that a significant proportion of migrants from Umla Village have successfully integrated into the labour market of Leh Town, with 30.6% securing employment in the government sector and 50.3% in the private sector. However, 19.1% of migrants remain unemployed upon relocation, indicating potential challenges in accessing suitable employment opportunities in the urban environment. Additionally, disparities in demographic characteristics between Umla Village and Leh Town are evident, with differences in dependency ratios and educational attainment levels. The reasons motivating migration vary, with economic opportunities, education, healthcare, better infrastructure, and environmental factors such as water shortages playing significant roles. These findings have several implications for policy interventions aimed at addressing the needs of migrants and promoting sustainable development. Enhancing rural livelihood opportunities, strengthening access to education and healthcare services in rural areas, and investing in urban infrastructure in Leh Town are crucial steps to support local development, accommodate the growing influx of migrants, and ensure their well-being in urban environments.

Abstract: It has been known for the evidences from trends of work participation rate that the female work participation rate is declining over a long period of time. The scholars have attributed this decline to increase in family income. Therefore, the argument is that the since the family income is sufficient, the women need not work anymore. This paper tries to analyse this argument with the help of employment and unemployment data from NSSO's Quinquennial surveys. Women are not a homogenous category. Their participation in work is determined by caste, class, culture and geography. Therefore, decline in women's work participation rate can not be explained as a result of the, merely, improvement in the economic status of their household. There are also the indications of existence of economic distress among women and the indications for existence of economic distress exceeds the indications for existence of economic prosperity in poor regions of India by a huge margin. Gender norms become very complex when various factors like geography, caste, class, urbanism etc. overlap each other, increasing the complexity in the relationship between women's work participation and their economic status. For instance, the poor women are not likely to quit work if the aggregate benefits of working exceed the value of their domestic responsibilities and fulfil their working aspirations including good quality work. There are several such possibilities that are likely to emerge in diverse socio-economic and cultural settings. Therefore, there is an ample need of region specific studies to account the disappearance of women workers from labour market.
