Abstract: Education has long been recognized as a key driver of social transformation, individual empowerment, and economic development. In India, girls’ education continues to face unique challenges, particularly among marginalized communities such as Scheduled Castes (SCs), who have historically experienced social exclusion, economic deprivation, and systemic discrimination. Parental support plays a critical role in shaping educational participation, especially at higher secondary levels, where the transition from schooling to tertiary education or vocational opportunities occurs. This study explores the relationship between socioeconomic status (SES) and parental attitudes toward girls’ higher secondary education in SC families, with a focus on Purulia district, West Bengal. By investigating socio-cultural, economic, and structural factors, the research seeks to identify barriers and facilitators influencing SC parents’ support for their daughters’ education. The study concludes that while economic constraints, traditional gender norms, low parental literacy, and infrastructural limitations act as significant impediments, higher socio-economic status, government programs, maternal influence, community awareness, and recognition of long-term benefits can foster positive attitudes and active support.

Abstract: The objective of this study is to explore the Maheshwara Sutras, foundational to the Ashtadhyayi of Panini, that reflect a system of phonetic and symbolic structures that are impressively interwoven. The fundamental basis for classifying and deciphering Sanskrit sounds is provided by these sutras. The sutras facilitate a thorough comprehension of linguistic norms and their application by grouping phonemes into methodically organized clusters. This paper will highlight the importance of the Maheshwara Sutras and explores the Maheshwara Sutras’ complex structure and how they depict universal knowledge. In order to show how they mirror the underlying unity of the cosmos, special attention is paid to their halant markers (termination symbols) and the interconnectivity of sounds. This study emphasizes the deep philosophical and linguistic insights contained in the sutras by combining conventional interpretations with modern research.
Keywords: Halant Markers, Maheshwara Sutras, Phonetic, Sanskrit.

Abstract: Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important opportunistic pathogen associated with a variety of healthcareassociated infections. The rise of colistin resistance in carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae represents a significant global health threat, as colistin is frequently used as a last-resort antibiotic that requires continuous monitoring for effective antimicrobial therapy and infection control strategies. Present studies evaluate the prevalence and in-vitro antibiotics antibiotic susceptibility of K. pneumoniae clinical isolates at a tertiary care hospital,along with their demographic and clinical distribution.Clinical isolates from a tertiary care hospital, along with their demographic and clinical distribution, were analyzed in this retrospective study, which included 556 Gram-negative bacterial isolates obtained from various clinical specimens between December 2023 and March 2024.The VITEK-2 automated system was used for bacterial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The distribution of K. pneumoniae isolates by gender, age group, clinical specimen and hospital location was evaluated. We also assessed patterns of colistin resistance and susceptibility to other available antibiotics. A Chi-square test was applied to find the association of colistin resistance with demographic variables, (where p <0.05). Extensive resistance to βlactams, carbapenems, fluoroquinolones, and aminoglycosides was detected by antibiotic susceptibility testing. In- vitro susceptibility was minimal for fosfomycin (22.7%), ertapenem (18.2%), tigecycline (13.6%)and gentamicin (9.1%), indicating the presence of extensively drug-resistant strains. The emergence of colistin-resistant K. pneumoniae with extensive drug resistance and serious therapeutic limitations has become a significant public health issue, as this study highlighted. These results highlight the importance of surveillance against antimicrobial resistance, strong infection control policies and practices, and effective implementation of programs related to antimicrobial stewardship in order to limit transmission of resistant strains. Early detection and judicious use of antibiotics are the keys to ensuring colistin and other last-line antibiotics remain effective.

Abstract: In terms of worldwide conservation, India is in a paradoxical position because it is both one of the most biodiverse countries in the world and one of the most densely populated, leading to severe conflicts between the survival of wildlife and human needs. India is a conservation area of planetary significance, supporting over 8% of global biodiversity within just 2.4% of the Earth’s land surface and housing four of the 36 recognised biodiversity hotspots worldwide. However, compared to its true ecological impact, hunting— which includes subsistence poaching, commercial wildlife trafficking, ritualistic killing, and crop-protection culling—remains a seriously understudied concern. While habitat loss and the preservation of charismatic megafauna like tigers, elephants, and rhinoceroses have received a lot of scientific and policy attention, the wider range of hunting pressure across taxonomic groups, geographical regions, and socioeconomic contexts has not gotten enough attention. The legislative framework under the Wildlife (Protection) Act of 1972 is reviewed, the unique challenges of northeast India and other biodiversity-critical regions are examined, the social aspects of indigenous and subsistence hunting are explored, and a comprehensive research and policy agenda is proposed. This paper summarises current knowledge on hunting as a conservation threat in India. It contends that India’s biodiversity will continue to quietly decline in the absence of a more methodical, multidisciplinary, and geographically encompassing understanding of hunting dynamics, especially among the less researched taxa that support ecosystem function.

Abstract: The 2020 education policy serves as a bearer and embodiment of national progress. A good teacher can effectively manage the classroom environment, which is a goal reflected in this education policy. To reform the education system and make education more qualitative, a new education policy was adopted in 2020.This education policy will bring about a radical transformation in India’s education system and give birth to a new education system. Therefore, research on the 2020 education policy has shown that the approach and structural reforms have significantly influenced systemic changes in the education sector and the teacher training process. In this education system, we see a shift away from separate institutions towards a multidisciplinary approach, where the entire education system is being managed through a technologyenabled ecosystem. This research shows that the education system has incorporated a four-year B.Ed. program, where our subject-specific knowledge, teaching methods, and continuous training and research are integrated in a holistic manner. This research highlights the importance of students’ professional skills as well as teachers’ professional skills, and emphasizes the use of inclusive education and technology-based education. Here, importance is given to education based on experience and qualifications .The country and the state are facing a challenge in implementing what has been highlighted in this research.
Nevertheless, this education policy provides a powerful framework for transforming teachers and education in new ways.

Abstract: Supplier selection plays a crucial role in achieving sustainability within modern supply chains, as organizations must balance economic performance with environmental and social responsibilities. The decision making process is inherently complex due to the presence of multiple conflicting criteria and uncertainty in evaluation data. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach for sustainable supplier selection. The proposed framework integrates fuzzy set theory with established MCDM techniques to effectively handle vagueness and imprecision in expert judgments. Linguistic assessments are modeled using triangular fuzzy numbers, enabling decision makers to express preferences in a flexible manner. The methodology systematically evaluates and ranks potential suppliers based on sustainability-related criteria such as cost, quality, environmental impact, and social responsibility. A numerical illustration is presented to demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed approach. The results indicate that the fuzzy MCDM framework provides consistent and reliable supplier rankings, supporting decision makers in selecting the most suitable sustainable suppliers. The proposed model offers a practical decision support tool for improving sustainability performance in supply chain management.

Abstract: Commercial dairy farming in Assam began during the British period, particularly after the Treaty of Segowali (1816), which facilitated the migration of Gorkha families from Nepal to Assam and other regions of India. Historically, the Gorkha community has been characterized by its unique pastoral systems and livestock management strategies, which have evolved over centuries. The indigenous knowledge systems that govern these practices are crucial for understanding how local communities interact with their environment, particularly concerning the sustainable management of dairy resources. By employing historical, analytical, and descriptive methodologies, this study elucidates the intricate relationships between cultural identity and ecological governance.
At the core of Gorkha cattle culture is a profound respect for biodiversity and an understanding of ecosystem dynamics. The traditional practices associated with Gorkha cattle such as selective breeding, rotational grazing, and integrated crop-livestock systems demonstrate an sharp awareness of ecological stability, while significantly contributing to Assam’s overall dairy production.
The study highlight the Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) embedded within the Gorkha cattle culture presents a compelling narrative that intersects cultural heritage with contemporary sustainability practices in dairy development. The findings also reveal that the Gorkhas’ cattle culture not only preserves ecological balance but also strengthens the socio- economic foundation of dairy farming in the state. These indigenous methods can be further incorporated to increase productivity and guarantee the dairy industry in Assam develops sustainably with the right kind of policy backing and scientific training.

Abstract: Mental health issues among students have become a pressing concern in modern educational environments, largely due to rising academic demands, intense competition, and shifting social expectations. This study explores how academic pressure affects student well-being and the coping strategies they use to handle psychological stress. Adopting a cross-sectional research approach, data were gathered using standardized tools to measure stress levels, emotional health, and coping behaviours. The results indicate a strong link between increased academic pressure and higher levels of anxiety, stress, and emotional fatigue among students. In contrast, those who engaged in adaptive coping strategies—such as problem-solving, seeking social support, and practicing mindfulness—reported better psychological well-being and greater resilience. On the other hand, maladaptive strategies like avoidance and self-isolation were associated with worsening mental health outcomes. The study emphasizes the important role coping mechanisms play in reducing the negative impact of academic stress. It highlights the need for educational institutions to incorporate mental health services, stress management initiatives, and coping skills training into their systems. A comprehensive approach to student mental health can improve well-being, boost academic involvement, and lead to better overall educational outcomes.

Abstract: Traditional grammar frameworks classify English tense into past, present, and future. However, contemporary linguistic analysis suggests that English lacks a morphologically distinct future tense. This study argues that presenting the future as a separate tense in English Language Teaching (ELT) introduces unnecessary complexity and may hinder learner fluency.
Adopting a mixed-methods approach, the study combines corpus analysis of future-oriented utterances from the British National Corpus (BNC) with survey data from 200 ESL instructors and a controlled classroom experiment involving 100 learners. Future expressions are categorized into four functional domains: intention, prediction, arrangement, and spontaneity.
The findings indicate that approximately 74% of future expressions rely on present-based constructions or modal auxiliaries such as will. Moreover, learners taught using a functional, modality-based approach demonstrated 22% higher communicative accuracy than those taught through traditional tense-based instruction.
The paper proposes a simplified Non-Past Model and introduces the concept of Functional Futurity, emphasizing meaning over rigid tense classification. The study concludes that revising how futurity is taught can improve both accuracy and fluency in ELT contexts.
