Abstract: Literacy level is a reflection of the socio-economic condition and the cultural environment of a region. It is directly related with the endeavour to be wellbeing in today's societal periphery. The districts of West Bengal in India satisfy the requirements of education with a high variation as per their accessibility and nearness to the municipal hub or requisite institutions. Again the fertile soil cover and the ease of earning livelihood pattern often retard the necessity and urge to be educated. All though having many more constraints to attain high education level the South 24 Parganas districts is gaining ever-increasing rates of literacy level in recent decades. The present study has tried to make a relationship between the workers and non-workers both by the components of main and marginal types and male and female population.

Abstract: An election is a formal group decision-making process by which a population chooses an individual to hold public office. Elections have been the usual mechanism by which modern representative democracy is operated, while democracy itself is perceived as a process for strengthening of peace, boosting of foreign relations and attraction of citizens of other countries. This study therefore looked at an exegetical
analysis of the concept of election in Ephesians 1:3-6. Paul brings the issue of election in Ephesians 1:3-6 and went further to say we are adopted children of God. Paul who sees..............

Abstract: Present study was carried out through descriptive survey method within ex-post-facto research design. To collect the data "Multidimensional Students Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS)" were administered on a random sample of 51 male and 64 female school-going adolescents. In Multidimensional Students Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS) there are 40 items and with each item a 5-point Likert type scale ranging from 1 to 5 is attached. Total scores can range at the lowest from (1×40) = 40 to at the highest (5×40) = 200 and the ambivalent (midpoint) is (3×40) = 120. The result shows that the mean and standard deviation of MSLSS scores were 158.93 and 19.435 respectively. Here the mean (158.93) was much higher than the ambivalent score (120)...............

Abstract: AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is caused by a virus named HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). According to the data of the Global Health Observatory (GHO) of World Health Organisation (WHO) (2015), all over the globe 1.1 million people died due to AIDS, and 36.7 million people have been living with the HIV. Since no vaccine is invented / available to cure AIDS, the authors thought of creating awareness about AIDS through the method of evolving Gandhian three wise-monkeys by adding the fourth monkey called Shizaru which indicates "do no evil". The authors thought of referring the caption "do no evil" to - not to have unsafe and unhygienic sex without using condoms

Access to justice, in its widest sense of the effective resolution of disputes whether through court-based litigation or alternative dispute resolution processes, is an essential aspect of ensuring the realization of the fundamental rights recognized and given protection by the Constitution1..............
