In the context of Uttar Pradesh, a region with a rich cultural and political heritage women's organizations have played a pivotal role in mobilizing support fostering political consciousness, and participating in various forms of resistance against British colonial rule. This paper explores the multifaceted contributions of women in Uttar Pradesh, highlighting how they mobilized, organized, and participated in the national movement. This paper also delves into the emergence and evolution of women's organizations in Uttar Pradesh during the freedom struggle. It examines their efforts to address social issues such as education, health, and gender equality. In this abstract, we will discuss how they faced the challenges during establishing these organizations. Through primary and secondary sources, including archival records, personal memoirs, and contemporary accounts, this study offers a comprehensive analysis of the impact of these organizations. Key organizations like the Kanya Gurukul in Dehradun, The Allahabad Women's Association, The All-India Women Conference, and other associations provided platforms for women to engage in political discourse and activism.

 Abstract

Environmental pollution and climate change pose significant challenges in the twenty-first century, compelling governments and businesses to assess their environmental impacts. The construction sector's need to embrace green practices has become critically important. Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) is an environmental innovation aimed at integrating environmental parameters within supply chain management, thereby reducing carbon emissions and improving organizational environmental performance. This paper reviews the necessity of GSCM in the Indian construction industry, focusing on research trends, motivators, and challenges associated with its implementation in India. Key barriers identified include short-term planning, resource scarcity, and lack of political pressure. Despite these challenges, GSCM offers benefits such as cost savings, enhanced reputation, and reduced environmental concerns. The study recommends developing a GSCM standard tailored for the construction industry, incorporating green initiation, product design, material management, construction processes, and operation and maintenance. A novel ranking method based on rough sets theory is proposed to prioritize factors influencing GSCM implementation. The growing environmental consciousness and stakeholder pressure provide a conducive environment for the widespread adoption of GSCM practices. By leveraging theoretical frameworks and practical strategies, the Indian construction industry can enhance sustainability and efficiency, aligning with global environmental goals.

Evaluation of the Suitable Packaging material for the preservation and Extending the Shelf life of Perishable fruits like Guava. Three Packaging Material: Ziplock, Silver foil and Vacuum packages was assessed Across 3 temperature: Room temperature, Refrigerator, Freezer. Over a defined period daily monitoring of Key parameters: pH, TSS, Pectin, Antioxidant, Weight loss and Sensory attributes (Appearance, Texture, Taste and Smell) was conducted. Results demonstrate a progressive deterioration in Guava over time, marked by increasing in the level of pH and TSS, and decrease in the pectin level and Antioxidant content. Among these the Silver foil emerged as the most effective and suitable packaging material as it provide Air space for Guava to maintaining its overall quality, Freshness and sensory attributes particularly stored in Refrigerated condition. Freezer storage also proved beneficial for extending the shelf life but it may effect the texture of guava due to occurrence of chilling injuries. Ziplock bags exhibited as moderate usability while Vacuum packages are unsuitable for Guava because its adverse reaction on texture and quality that it needs air for its respiration. These findings underscore the importance of selecting appropriate packaging materials customize the requirements of the Fruit sample. This study contributes valuable insights in to optimizing packaging and storage practices to enhance the Shelf life and to maintain the quality of the perishable fruits. By providing evidence based on recommendations, it aids in the development of improved packaging solutions, beneficial for both Consumers and Food manufacturers in ensuring Product Quality and Safety.

 Abstract

The Trial of Dedan Kimathi, a pivotal work by Ngugi wa Thiong'o and Micere Githae Mugo, reimagines Kenya's struggle for independence during the Mau Mau Movement. The Trial of Dedan Kimathi is a representative East African drama that serves as a model for African historical plays dedicated to challenging incorrect preconceptions about Africans' historical lineage. The intent of the paper is to present the authors' intention to explore historical misconceptions about Kenya that marginalise the popular struggle that led to the country's independence and how memory is employed in the play to refute and oppose official accounts of history. The paper emphasises how the play acts as a channel for the collective memory of the Kenyan independence movement and the Mau Mau Movement. By situating The Trial of Dedan Kimathi within the broader discourse of decolonial hope and planetary sustainability, the paper aims to show how the play not only recounts historical struggles but also offers a vision for a future shaped by solidarity and transformation. The decolonial notion of hope, as portrayed in the play, emerges as a praxis that re-centers erased non-hegemonic histories and knowledge, crucial for planetary recovery and healing.
