 Abstract

The present study assessed the effectiveness of a planned teaching programme (PTP) on the knowledge of pre-university (PU) college students regarding mental hygiene in selected colleges in Bidar. The study revealed that examinations and grades were the primary stressors, followed by long working hours, criticism from supervisors, and fear of unemployment. A paired t-test analysis of pre-test and post-test knowledge scores showed a significant improvement, with a t value of 45.11 (p < 0.001) and a percentage mean difference of 49.76%. Key findings included a substantial increase in knowledge regarding the meaning, characteristics, and ways to restore mental hygiene, as well as awareness of risk factors and red-flag symptoms. The results highlight the need for interventional approaches, self-learning initiatives, and mass education to promote mental health awareness and minimize substance abuse among students.

India is amongst few countries that does not consider marital rape as crime and continues to exempt husbands from being charges for rape. This article will examine the reason for exemption of marital rape from being considered crime in Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita. The exemption stems from the belief in Indian culture that sexual consent is implied and irrefutable upon marriage. This depicts the patriarchal nature of the society which developed upon the notion that wife's body is a property of her husband thus undermining her liberty. The discussion on marital rape in India basically surrounded by intersection of marriage, consent and crime. Historically speaking the marriage in India is sacred concept with the deep-rooted beliefs that women should always fulfil the sexual needs of her partner. These notions clearly violate fundamental rights of women and stand in contradiction with constitutional values of gender equality, dignity and bodily integrity. The key issue relating marital rape is of consent. The exemption that consent is given automatically once marriage is solemnised which disregards the essential elements of consent which is consent should be free from any pressure and is dynamic and ongoing process which can be revoked at any time. The absence of legalisation of marital rape deprives women of right to bodily autonomy and personal security which are enshrined in constitution under Article 14 (equality before law), Article 19 (freedom of expression) and article 21 (right to life and personal liberty). This paper will also compare laws relating to marital rapes in other countries with Indian law.

 Abstract

Rapid population growth and urbanization have limited accessible high-quality land, leading to construction on weak soils like black cotton soil. Despite being fertile, black cotton soil is unsuitable for foundations due to its expansive nature, which causes shrink-swell behavior with moisture changes. Cracks form during dry seasons, and even minimal rainfall can make these soils impassable. In India, 20% of the area is covered by black soil, posing challenges for highway engineers. Weak subgrade s in road construction can cause pavement failure. This study explores improving black cotton soil's geotechnical properties using geopolymer stabilization, an eco-friendly alternative to energy-intensive Portland cement. Fly ash (5-20%) is activated with sodium hydroxide, significantly enhancing soil strength and load-bearing capacity through geopolymerization.

 Abstract

This study examines how well wet scavenging works to reduce particulate matter (PM) concentrations and how that affects the Air Quality Index (AQI) in different parts of Agra. One important natural method for purging the air of contaminants is wet scavenging, in which precipitation collects and removes atmospheric particles. In the urban and peri-urban regions of Agra, a city notorious for its severe air pollution problems, mostly brought on by industrial activity, construction dust, and vehicle emissions, the study attempts to measure the efficacy of this procedure. The research offers a thorough evaluation of the ways in which wet scavenging affects PM concentrations of various sizes, especially PM2.5 and PM10, by gathering and evaluating PM data before to, during, and following rainstorm events at several monitoring stations located around the city. High-precision sensors and weather stations are used in the study technique to continuously monitor air quality metrics and record rainfall events. PM levels and precipitation duration and severity are correlated using sophisticated statistical techniques and atmospheric models. Additionally, by contrasting data from heavily populated metropolitan centers, industrial zones, and less-trafficked residential regions, the spatial heterogeneity of wet scavenging efficiency is investigated. The study also examines the temporal component, emphasizing the rate and duration of post-rainfall improvements in air quality.
