Abstract:According to Census 2001, in West Bengal almost 50 lakh children in the age group 6-14 years were not attending any educational institution. They constituted 29 per cent of all in the same age group. Against the backdrop of this huge number of out of-school children, the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan was launched in 2001-02. The overall aim of this centrally sponsored programme was to provide quality elementary education for all children in the age group 6-14 years by 2010. Until recently West Bengal's progress towards Universal Elementary Education has not been remarkable. According to Census 2011 about 23 per cent of the state's population has remained non-literate, which is only three percentage points,,,,,,,,

Abstract: Vampire fiction, in addition to its popularity, has coloured the wild imaginations of young and old alike. The novels and films, in this subgenre, are being produced like never before. Though the very term "vampire" evokes in us the picture of the bloodthirsty, luring Count Dracula, created by the Irish novelist Bram Stoker in 1897, vampire fiction had been popular long before the publication of this novel. But the question regarding the significance of vampires needs to be answered. As Ken Gelder states in the preface of his book Reading the Vampire, "they evoke a response that is not entirely 'rational' – a response that may sit somewhere in between disbelief and, in fact, a suspension of disbelief" (x).This paper aims at understanding the evolution of the mythical vampire into modern angelic bloodsuckers of the twenty first century as depicted in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight novels........

Abstract: Background: Non-Governmental Organizations contribute significantly to education, health, social welfare and economic improvement programmes, especially among underprivileged sectors in the society.

Abstract: Rising crime, rates are imminent in modern societies. In this, policymakers across the globe tend to focus only on the enforcement and punishment aspects. However, recent studies suggest that there are other policy mechanisms that can be effective in reducing the crime rate. For instance, boosting the educational attainment can significantly reduce crime. While the complete eradication of crime is not feasible, incorporating education in the policy reforms revolving around crime can be an ideal way to boost this fight. In this paper, the impact of education on crime has been analyzed with varying perspectives being incorporated. Several ways that education can reduce crime rates have been identified and by enhancing these, better societies can be fostered. As such, the implications of this study have been documented as well as the solutions that the policymakers ought to implement.
