Abstract: Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a pivotal role in the growth and structural transformation of the Indian economy by contributing significantly to employment generation, industrial output, exports, and regional development. As a labor-intensive sector, MSMEs promote inclusive growth by providing livelihood opportunities in rural and semi-urban areas. Within this framework, the jute industry occupies a distinctive position due to its agro-based nature, eco-friendly products, and strong linkages with small producers and traditional artisans. India is one of the largest producers of raw jute and jute goods, and a substantial portion of this sector operates under the MSME category. The jute-based MSMEs contribute to foreign exchange earnings through the export of diversified products such as jute bags, carpets, handicrafts, and geo-textiles.
With increasing global emphasis on sustainable and biodegradable alternatives to plastic, jute MSMEs have gained renewed importance. Government initiatives such as financial assistance schemes, cluster development programs, and policy support for sustainable packaging have further strengthened the sector. However, challenges including outdated technology, limited access to credit, market competition, and infrastructural constraints continue to affect productivity and profitability. Therefore, strengthening MSMEs in the jute industry through modernization, skill development, and digital marketing strategies is essential for enhancing competitiveness and ensuring sustainable economic growth in India.

Abstract: By incorporating cutting-edge technologies, creative approaches, and clever platforms, digital transformation is crucial for enhancing education and increasing the accessibility and effect of learning. However, because of conventional geographical and infrastructure limitations, current educational approaches struggle with scarce resources, inflexible environments, and obstacles to collaboration. The infrastructure, relationship patterns, and organisational structure of education can all be altered by the use of digital technologies in service delivery. But merely implementing technology won’t guarantee education’s successful digital transformation. Therefore, users’ willingness to use technology and their digital culture should be improved to take advantage of the innovation opportunities associated with the use of technology in order to address the disruption of the contemporary context, particularly in service contexts like education.

Abstract: Financial literacy is a critical determinant of economic empowerment, particularly in a diverse and economically dynamic state like Maharashtra. As one of India’s leading industrial and financial hubs, Maharashtra presents both significant opportunities and persistent inequalities across urban and rural regions. This study examines the role of financial literacy in enhancing economic empowerment by improving individuals’ capacity to make informed financial decisions related to savings, credit, investment, insurance, and entrepreneurship. Increased financial awareness contributes to greater participation in formal banking systems, reduces dependence on informal credit sources, and strengthens household financial resilience.
The paper highlights key opportunities such as government-led financial inclusion initiatives, integration of financial education in academic curricula, digital payment expansion, and the role of self-help groups and microfinance institutions in rural outreach. At the same time, challenges including low awareness levels, digital divide, language barriers, socio-cultural constraints, and limited access to quality financial education hinder widespread impact. Special attention is given to vulnerable groups such as women, rural households, and small entrepreneurs who stand to benefit significantly from improved financial capability
The study concludes that sustained, localized, and inclusive financial education strategies are essential for translating financial literacy into meaningful economic empowerment across Maharashtra. A coordinated effort among policymakers, financial institutions, educational bodies, and community organizations is necessary to ensure equitable and sustainable financial growth.

Abstract: The Personality is often understood in terms of being good looking, attractive etc. They go by the impression created by the person concerned. The ability to talk and interact with others pleasantly in addition to being good looking, would make others say that the person concerned has a good personality. Persons who do not have good looks or not well dressed or do not interact adequately are considered to have poor personality, but psychologically this is not a true concept of personality. In fact, psychologists consider any attempt to define personality in terms of social attractiveness inadequate because of two reasons, first it limits the number and types of behavior considered important and worthy for incorporation into the study of personality. Second, such notion carries the absurd implication that some people who have unique abilities and temperament traits are devoid of having a personality.
There are several definitions of personality and several theories of personality have been developed so far to explain its nature. Psychologists have designed studies by employing factorial analysis method to extract the factors of personality. The psychologist R.B. Cattel designed 16 PF of personality.

Abstract: This study examines gender inequality in education and employment within Maharashtra, India, employing a sample of 148 respondents to rigorously test two null hypotheses: the absence of significant disparities in educational access (H₀₁) and employment opportunities (H₀₂) between genders. Key objectives encompass evaluating inequality levels, analysing employment differences, pinpointing social and economic drivers, and recommending targeted interventions. Findings underscore persistent rural-urban divides, with lower female enrolment and workforce participation rates rejecting both hypotheses, fueled by patriarchal norms, poverty, and infrastructural deficits.
Preliminary analyses via chi-square tests reveal stark gaps: rural female secondary completion at 45% versus 68% urban, alongside 20.6% female labor participation skewed toward informal sectors. Social factors like early marriage and stereotypes exacerbate educational dropouts, while economic barriers limit job access, despite 2025 co-education mandates.
Proposed measures advocate scholarships, safe transport, vocational skilling, and gender audits to foster equity. This research contributes actionable insights for policymakers, promoting inclusive development in Maharashtra.

Abstract: The present study examines looks into how digital payments affect financial access in Maharashtra. Its goal? To check whether tools like UPI, mobile banking, or e-wallets help more people use official money services. It uses a mix of description and analysis, pulling from first-hand info plus existing sources. Data came directly from 200 individuals via organised surveys handed out across chosen city and village spots there. Other details were pulled from RBI papers, NPCI records, state documents, along with related studies. Statistical methods like percent calculations, averages, or chi-squared checks helped examine the data. Results show digital payments boost financial access by making bank services easier to reach, simplifying transactions, also increasing involvement in official finance networks. Still, problems including poor tech knowledge, weak internet links, or safety worries act as big roadblocks especially in villages. Researchers found better online setups plus stronger money and tech education must happen if full financial access is to take root across Maharashtra.

Abstract: Leadership, ethics, and value-based management education have emerged as critical pillars of contemporary business education. In an era marked by globalization, technological disruption, corporate governance failures, and increasing societal expectations for responsible corporate behaviour, the role of management education has expanded beyond imparting technical knowledge. Institutions are now expected to cultivate principled leaders capable of ethical decision-making, stakeholder sensitivity, and long-term sustainable thinking.
This paper explores the theoretical foundations, pedagogical frameworks, institutional strategies, and empirical implications of integrating ethics and value-based leadership into management education. Drawing upon leadership theory, moral philosophy, stakeholder theory, and experiential learning models, the study examines how structured value-based curricula influence ethical reasoning, moral resilience, and leadership orientation among management students.
Using a mixed-method conceptual framework supported by literature synthesis and pedagogical analysis, the paper argues that experiential learning, reflective practices, dilemma-based case discussions, faculty role-modelling, and community immersion significantly enhance ethical competence. The findings suggest that institutions embedding value-based education across disciplines rather than isolating ethics in standalone courses produce graduates with stronger moral judgment, empathy, and responsible innovation capacity.
The paper concludes with recommendations for curriculum reform, faculty development, accreditation alignment, and future research directions aimed at strengthening the ethical foundations of global management education.

Abstract: In the contemporary globalized and knowledge-driven economy, employability is no longer determined solely by academic qualifications or technical expertise. Language proficiency and effective communication skills have emerged as central determinants of graduates’ employability across disciplines and professional sectors. This research paper critically examines the interrelationship between language, communication, and employability skills from an academic perspective. It explores how linguistic competence and communicative abilities shape professional identity, workplace performance, and career progression. Drawing on interdisciplinary literature from applied linguistics, education, and employability studies, the paper analyses theoretical frameworks, pedagogical practices, and institutional responsibilities in developing employability-oriented communication skills. Using a qualitative, literature-based methodology, the study highlights existing gaps between academic curricula and industry expectations. The paper concludes that systematic integration of language and communication training within higher education is essential for enhancing graduate employability and meeting the evolving demands of the global labour market.

Abstract: This research paper explores Arundhati Roy’s reinterpretation of the 1932 Poona Pact in her well known non-fiction The Doctor and the Saint: Caste,Race and Annihilation of Caste and the book focuses on the tensions between Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. B.R. Ambedkar regarding political representation for the depressed and marginalized classes (now Dalits). Roy argues that the Poona Pact was a turning point that shaped India’s democratic structure while simultaneously limiting Dalit political autonomy and she sees the Pact as giving structure to Indian democracy while simultaneously undercutting Dalit political freedom.
Through close reading, historical contextualisation, and ideological comparison, this paper analyses how Roy exposes contradictions in Gandhi’s moral politics and foregrounds Ambedkar’s critique of caste hierarchy and reveals the flaws or inconsistencies in Mahatma Gandhi’s moral and political ideas and also Roy brings attention to, or emphasizes, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s strong criticism of the caste system (caste hierarchy). The paper concludes that Roy’s intervention challenges dominant nationalist historiography and resurrects the political significance of Ambedkar’s demand for separate electorates as a form of emancipation and it directly disagrees with and questions the common, established way that Indian nationalism and history are usually taught and understood.
It brings back and highlights the historical importance of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s original demand for “separate electorates.” The paper frames Ambedkar’s demand (separate electorates) as a way for Dalits to achieve true freedom (emancipation) and control their own political voice (self-representation), rather than relying on the general electoral system.

Abstract: In the present world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is significantly transforming education-based studies to culture-related fields and language spheres. It maps AI into seven different taxonomies, starting from Narrow to Self-Aware, offering an exhaustive categorization of how far or close we can get with a particular model. In education, the paper considers how AI can allow personalized learning adventures and adaptive practice as well as intelligent tutoring structures to improve upon traditional drives in schooling. AI is studied on such cultural aspects as heritage protection, digitization, and creative use, while demographic issues related to cultural globalization in the context of globalizing cultures are raised. On the language and linguistic front, it talks about how AI is impacting automated translation of languages being learned but also those that are disappearing. The publication moreover discusses the hurdles and obstacles in both areas— ethical constraints, data privacy interests, along with a call for equilibrium—as well. The paper also considers the shortcomings and challenges in every direction, e.g., ethical aspects, data privacy issues, or balanced realization of these ideas. This overarching analysis describes how AI is transforming these core segments of humanity and brings to light the necessity for responsible integration, which then can preserve our development that is both inclusive and sustainable.

Abstract: Values and ethics constitute the foundation of holistic education, shaping learners to become responsible, reflective and compassionate individuals. Constructivist pedagogy, which emphasizes meaning-making, active engagement and personal interpretation of experiences, offers a powerful pathway for nurturing ethical understanding in the formative years of teacher education. At SIES Institute of Comprehensive Education (SIES ICE), trainee teachers design learning experiences rooted in children’s real-life contexts, enabling them to construct meaning from situations involving respect, empathy, cooperation and responsibility. Activities and lessons promote dialogue, reflection, collaboration, problem-solving and perspective-taking, while strategies such as experiential learning, storytelling, role-play, inquiry-based learning and community-linked tasks deepen the internalization of human values.
The emphasis at SIES ICE is not merely on teaching values but on living them within classroom culture, peer interactions and teaching practices. Continuous reflection, discussion and modelling of ethical behaviour enable trainees to weave values seamlessly into all subjects and pedagogical processes, making value education meaningful and transformative. Anchored in the institute’s vision of holistic development, ethical citizenship and culturally rooted learning—reflected in its motto ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam — the world is one family’ (Maha Upanishad) — the integration of values and ethics aligns closely with NEP 2020, which advocates contextual, experiential and humanistic approaches to education.
Reflective journals, peer discussions, lesson analyses and mentor-guided feedback help trainees examine their biases, clarify ethical positions and refine pedagogical choices. Evaluating the ethical implications of teaching methods, classroom strategies and communication patterns enables them to develop a thoughtful and responsible teaching identity. This constructivist–ethical framework nurtures ethical sensitivity, social awareness, cultural inclusivity and responsible action—preparing teachers who are not only competent facilitators but also conscious role models capable of shaping humane, inclusive and value-oriented classrooms contributing to nation-building and global citizenship.

Abstract: Financial literacy has emerged as one of the most essential life skills in the modern economic environment. With rapid changes in financial markets, digitalization of banking services, availability of multiple financial products, and increasing cost of living, individuals are required to possess basic financial knowledge to make informed decisions. College students, who are at the threshold of independent financial life, must be equipped with adequate financial literacy to manage income, expenses, savings, and future financial goals effectively. The present study focuses on assessing the level of financial literacy among college students of Gadchiroli city. The study attempts to evaluate students’ awareness and practices related to expense prioritization, comparison shopping, borrowing behavior, and saving habits. Primary data were collected through a structured questionnaire administered to 100 college students from different faculties in Gadchiroli city. Secondary data were obtained from books, journals, and online sources. The findings reveal that while a significant proportion of students demonstrate responsible financial behavior in terms of price comparison and saving habits, a large number still lack systematic expense planning. Commerce students were found to be relatively more financially aware compared to students from other faculties. Overall, the level of financial literacy among college students in Gadchiroli city was found to be satisfactory. The study suggests the integration of financial education across all academic disciplines and emphasizes the need for workshops, expert lectures, and certificate courses to enhance financial literacy among students.
