	:	10.9790/0837-19951828

Abstract: In the present study, an attempt has been made to know the performance of agriculture sector in India by knowing the trends in area, production and productivity of food grain crops in India for the period 1980-81 to 2012-13. It has been observed that the compound growth rate in the area under total food grain revealed a declining trend. The production of total food grain crops grow at the rate of 1.94 per cent per annum during the study period. The productivity of total food grains grow at a rate of 2.08 per cent per annum. The overall average production of total food grains is 188.37 million tonnes out of which Rice has maximum average production i.e. 78.68 million tonnes during the study period. The overall average productivity of total food grain is 1522.06 kg/hectare out of wheat has maximum average productivity i.e. 2440.70 kg/hectare. The overall average area under total food grains is registered 125.93 million hectare out of which Rice has occupied maximum average area i.e. 42.48 million hectare. But, the overall absolute variability (Standard Deviation) in the production of total food grain is registered 35.39 million tonnes which is about 18.79 per cent (Coefficient of Variation). Similarly, the overall absolute change (Standard Deviation) in the productivity of total food grain is 279.29 kg/hectare which is 19.53 per cent (Coefficient of Variation) and the overall change in the area under cultivation of food grain crops is only 3.28 million hectares which is about 2.65 per cent during the study period.

Abstract: "Violence against women is perhaps the most shameful human rights violation. And it is perhaps the most pervasive. It knows no boundaries of geography, culture or wealth. As long as it continues, we can‟t claim to be making real progress towards equality, development and peace", Kofi Annan, Secretary – General of the United States, 2006. Violence against Women has assumed enormous significance because of being a major issue of concern and debate at the international level since the late sixties. Subsequent to the Battered Women‟s Movement of the eighties, violence against women gained greater momentum. The World‟s conference on Human Rights in Vienna, 1993 and the 1995 Beijing Conference added impetus to the movement where an urgent need was highlighted so as to focus on systematic research and multiple dimensions of violence against women across the countries and regions. This, it was felt would provide a firm and reliable base for policy intervention. The Violence against Women in India is rapt with torture of brides, dowry deaths, cruelty perpetrated on married women through conduct, be that physical, psychological or emotional

Abstract: This study examined the state of rural development in a local government area whose most ravaging hazard is river flooding of the river Nun in Southern Ijaw area of Bayelsa State. As the second largest wetland in the world, the Niger Delta is a flat low-lying flood plain that is characterized by so many rivers and streams coupled with its closeness to the atlantic. The area is made up of about 57 villages as divided into 10 clans. A total of 9 villages were sampled while 402 households were chosen for questionnaire administration. Data analysis was aided by the simple linear regression (least square method) and percentage ratings on the respondents' perception on annual flooding. Results show that river flooding and income of the people have no significant relationship with r2 value of 0.031. Also responses of the people titled to the fact that flooding has a more constructive than destructive effect in the area hence recommendation brings to light a need for further investigations to ascertain the profitability of approaches for effective development of settlements along the flood plains of the river Nun.\

Title	:	Thematic Concerns in Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God
Country	:	India
Authors	:	Dr. Prasanta Kumar Padhi
	:	10.9790/0837-19954852

Abstract: Their Eyes Were Watching God is generically the kind of novel called a bildungsroman, a German term that means "novel of education," which describes the formation of the protagonist's mind and character from youth into maturity. The journey of discovery that Janie undertakes begins at the gatepost of her grandmother's house, and ends in the bedroom of the house she has inherited from a 20-year marriage. Each of the major plot developments occurs as a departure from a house. Each man she takes up with enriches her knowledge of the world, so at the end of the novel, Janie returns to her former home. Hurston, in Their Eyes Were Watching God projected a model for the Afro-American women who were seeking their voice and self. Afro-American women were disillusioned by two reformist movements in the 1960s: Women's Liberation and civil rights movements. Most white feminists showed little interest in the race problem and most male Afro-Americans stuck to their sexist ideas on women's role. As a result, in the movements in which it should be essential to raise a voice, Afro-American women found themselves degenerated into voice less existence and keenly realized the necessity to regain their own voice. Creating Janie Crawford, the protagonist of Their Eyes Were Watching God, Hurston projected black women as powerful, articulate, self-reliant, and radically different from any women character they had ever encountered in literature.

Abstract: Inclusive education stands for improvement of schools in all dimensions to address the educational needs of all children. Recommendations to send children with disabilities to mainstream schools were first made in the Sargent Report in 1944, and again in 1964 by the Kothari Commission (Julka, 2005). Despite this, the change has been slow, with segregation in special schools dominating the scene until recently. There is no need of reinforcing the fact that teacher education remains a very weak link with respect to equipping teachers to be prepared for an inclusive classroom environment. The teacher education diplomas and degrees offer "Education of children with special needs" as an optional subject, in order to prepare teachers to identify and diagnose disability. However it gives them a holistic perspective with respect to dealing with diversity or challenge negative attitudes. The challenges and prospects in India are elucidated in the present paper.
