Biochemical Responses of Protein and Lipid Levels to Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) Chronic Bioaccumulation in Labeo rohita
type: item
description: Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) are known to accumulate in fat rich tissues due to their lipophilic characteristics, leading to bioconcentration and biomagnifications in the food chain. This accumulation poses risk to human health and the environment. The bioaccumulation of Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Labeo rohita can significantly impact their protein and lipid concentrations. The current research investigated how PCBs impact on protein and lipid levels in Labeo rohita under laboratory conditions. Labeo rohita belonging to the family Cyprinidae, weighing 25-30g procured from local fish dealer. Fish were acclimatized for a week at holding temperature of 18-220C. Chronic PCBs Lc50 is 0.90 ppm for 28 days, PCBs deposition in tissues had increased significantly with dose and exposure duration dependent manner. The Lowry method was used to measure total protein concentrations, while lipid content was determined through Folch extraction method. The study results indicated that biochemical components showed a significant decrease which linked to increasing dosages of the treatment. The control group showed protein levels of 6.03 mg/g which decreased to 3.51 mg/g at 0.90 ppm (Lc50) while lipid levels dropped from 13.06 mg/g to 9.81 mg/g. (Lc50). The study reveals that, the PCBs exposure causes metabolic stress which results in the depletion of necessary biochemical reserves. The study demonstrates that Labeo rohita protein and lipid levels function as reliable biomarkers to evaluate how aquatic ecosystems experience toxicological effects and environmental contamination.

Snakehead Fishes (Channidae): Aquaculture Potential, Nutritional Composition and Molecular Regulation of Lipid Metabolism: A Mini Review
type: item
description: Snakehead fishes (family Channidae) are increasingly important in freshwater aquaculture across Asia and emerging regions such as sub‑Saharan Africa, driven by high consumer preference, rapid growth, air‑breathing ability and perceived medicinal value. Culture intensification has stimulated a rapid shift from trash‑fish based feeding to formulated diets, raising critical questions about optimal protein lipid nutrition, lipid deposition, health, and the molecular regulation of energy and lipid metabolism. Recent studies are evaluated growth and feed efficiency responses to concentration based dietary protein and lipid levels in several snakehead species and hybrids, and has begun to clarify the roles of key metabolic regulators such as leptin paralogs, uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) and target of rapamycin (TOR) signaling in energy balance and lipid metabolism. Similar studies have detailed proximate composition, amino acid profile, albumin content and fatty acid composition of different Channa species and products, showing their nutritional value for humans and potential as functional foods. The aim of the present study is to understand (1) the aquaculture potential and production systems for snakehead fishes; (2) their flesh and product nutritional characteristics; and (3) emerging trends into molecular and nutritional regulation of lipid metabolism, including responses to dietary lipid manipulation, novel ingredients and hepatobiliary challenge. Limitations, research gaps and priorities are identified to support sustainable intensification, feed formulation and health management in Channidae aquaculture.

Higher Education Affects Opinions On The Adoption Of International Financial Reporting Standards In India
type: item
description: The research identified seven variables that contribute to the delay in IFRS adoption in India after data analysis using factor testing. statistical methods according to IFRS and Indian GAAP, we discovered a difference in profitability; nevertheless, this difference is not statistically significant, and in most situations, we are able to satisfy the null hypothesis. Profitability metrics vary, even if statistical methods support the null hypothesis. Even if the percentage difference is small, these variations are significant. As a result of the convergence process, private sector and financial sector enterprises are being hit particularly hard. There are certain areas where Indian accounting standards, IFRS, and Ind AS diverge. Ind AS is the IFRS converged form used in India. Aside from a few of things, the table of differences reveals that almost all provisions are identical to IFRS. Comparing IFRS with Indian GAAP reveals some significant differences.

Dispute Resolution of Marine Jurisdiction of Fishing Industry: An Issue of Economic and Social Concerned
type: item
description: With the richest riverine fish gene pools, a network of hundreds of rivers, estuaries, oxbows, and flood plains, India is the second-largest fish producer in the world. Products from the fishing industry are a great source of protein and other necessary micronutrients for a healthy diet. Notably, the supply of fish food is expanding responsibly every year (with an average growth rate of 3.2% per year) because to the expansion in fish production as well as the strong and balanced distribution channel. So, the idea of recreational fishing, which involves lots of people, is expanding into a substantial industry in terms of the number of practitioners and social and economic significance. The fishing business faces numerous problems with regard to its marine jurisdiction, whether local, national, or international, and this poses a significant challenge to the sector. The main issue is inefficient administration, which leads to considerable confusion and encourages over-exploitation of marine species. Additionally, small boats are contributing to open access, common property situations that offer strong incentives for immediate exploitation. Small boats are also causing overfishing in fisheries around the world, and "small scale" fleets can be major competitors in international trade. Fishers have poorly defined and unenforced use rights for fish. Similarly, the present legal and administrative policies are only serving partially progressive marine life management which is creating challenges for fisheries management. It is proposed that fisheries management needs to be strengthened, particularly the inshore waters, further, an evaluation of the domestic and international best practices for fisheries management and coastal life should be done.

Coeliac Disease: History, Pathophysiology, And Psychosomatic Dimensions
type: item
description: Coeliac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed individuals. First described by Aretaeus of Cappadocia in the 2nd century AD and later scientifically defined by Samuel Gee in 1888, its pathogenesis was clarified in the 1940s when Willem-Karel Dicke identified wheat as the causative agent. The disease is characterized by villous atrophy, malabsorption, and systemic complications, with a global prevalence of approximately 1%. Beyond its gastrointestinal manifestations, coeliac disease has significant psychosomatic and psychiatric dimensions, including associations with depression, anxiety, cognitive impairment, and social isolation. While the gluten-free diet remains the cornerstone of management, alternative medicine approaches—such as homeopathy, Ayurveda, naturopathy, and mind-body interventions—have been explored for supportive care, though evidence remains limited. This article reviews the historical evolution, pathophysiology, psychosomatic relations, and complementary medicine perspectives on coeliac disease, highlighting its multidimensional impact on health and quality of life.

Physicochemical Parameters And Phytoremediation Of Water Samples Of Laxmitaal Jhansi
type: item
description: Water being the source of life is vital for all known forms of life. It is an excellent solvent used for all purposes of life like drinking, cooking, agriculture, industries etc and so its availability is decreasing. For the limited resource availability, reuse of the available supply is more suggestible. To maintain this, pollution factors in water bodies should be on regular check and if pollution exceeds it should be remediated. Many physical and chemical technologies prevail for remediation of water, but Phytoremediation is the best technique. This is a very eco-friendly technique which decontaminates the wastewater in a very economical way. The present study emphasise on Physico-chemical parameters measurement and heavy metal detection in LaxmiTaal, a local water body in Jhansi city of Uttar Pradesh. Physicochemical parameters like pH, turbidity, alkalinity, chloride content, total dissolved solids, BOD, DO and COD are measured every six months to observe the seasonal variations. Phytoremediation efficiency of Eichhornia and Hydrilla is examined by treating contaminated water of Laxmi Taal. The results revealed that many of the physicochemical parameters of Laxmi Taal water were in the range of pollution but after phytoremediation water quality is enhanced as the parameters towards pollution were greatly reduced.

Comparative Analysis Of Mortality Patterns Associated With Plasmodium Falciparum And Plasmodium Vivax In A Hyperendemic Region Of Bihar, India
type: item
description: Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax co-exist with Malaria in regions of India that are hyperendemic, imposing a high mortality burden and having a dissimilar impact on the severe disease outcomes. The proposed study has made a comparative evaluation of the patterns of species-specific mortality in the selected hyperendemic districts of Bihar using retrospective observational cohort design on the basis of regularly collected clinical and surveillance data. One thousand two hundred and eighty-four laboratory confirmed cases of malaria were studied comprising 742 cases of P. falciparum and 542 cases of P. vivax. Mortality was observed to be more in P. falciparum (8.2% than in P. vivax (3.3%), where death cases were at both ends of the age and mainly among patients who presented with diabetes complications. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that P. falciparum infection on its own was a significant predictor of death following the factors of age, sex, and severity of disease but IVs at presentation were shown to be the most significant factor of death. Even if the death rate related to P. vivax was less in absolute terms, the fact that fatal consequences did occur highlighted the fact that vivax malaria is not always benign when it comes to hyperendemic areas with limited resources. The observation shows the significance of species based risk stratification, early diagnosis, and prompt referral of severe malaria in order to minimize death caused by malaria in endemic countries like Bihar, India.

Socioeconomic Determinants Of Malaria Morbidity And Mortality In Endemic Regions Of Bihar, India
type: item
description: Malaria is a major public health issue in some of the flood prone and rural districts of Bihar, India, where socioeconomic vulnerability is a factor in perpetrating infections and avoidable deaths. The current research paper focuses on the association between malaria morbidity and mortality with socioeconomic factors in the selected endemic areas in the state of Bihar. It is a cross-sectional survey of a community-based survey, with 200 adult respondents sampled by 4 high-risk districts, namely, Purnia, Katihar, Araria and Kishanganj. The main data will be gathered using a structured questionnaire of education, income, occupation, housing condition, preventive habits and treatment seeking behaviour. Data analysis is done using descriptive statistics, chi-square tests and binary logistic regression analysis. The results indicate that low-income and illiterate respondents, daily wage laborers, and people living in kutcha houses with no mosquito nets will be more inclined to malaria. Higher morbidity and mortality are noted in those respondents who postpone treatment or through informal health providers, but prompt treatment in formal health care facilities lowers mortality. Logistic regression results in delayed treatment, lack of mosquito nets, illiteracy and distance to health facilities are the factors to predict malaria deaths (p < 0.05). The research finds malaria in Bihar to be directly related to poverty and the lack of access to healthcare pointing at the necessity of combined prevention and healthcare actions.

Morbidity And Mortality Trends Associated With Plasmodium Falciparum And Plasmodium Vivax Infections In Rural Bihar: A District-Level Case Study Of Madhepura
type: item
description: Malaria is one of the ongoing challenges of the Indian public health that is mainly spread in rural and resource-limited areas where environmental and socio-economic determinants of disease transmission are coupled with healthcare accessibility. Due to its frequent seasonal floods, infrastructural constraints, and socio-economic disadvantage, Bihar has remained the victim of malaria-related health challenges. The current paper will review the morbidity and mortality with Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax in the Madhepura district of rural Bihar. The research is aimed at species-specific disease burden, demographic distribution, clinical severity patterns, and mortality outcomes. The results show that there are significant differences between the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the two species of the parasites. Although Plasmodium vivax makes a greater percentage of cases of reported malaria, Plasmodium falciparum is linked with heightened clinical severity and with an excessively elevated mortality risk. The findings highlight the significance of species-specific diagnostic plans, therapeutic interventions, and enhanced surveillance systems in rural healthcare facilities. The research adds to the localized knowledge regarding the dynamics of malaria and provides the insights into the specific public health interventions focused on the reduction of malaria-related morbidity and mortality.

Influence Of Seasonal Variability On Malaria Incidence And Clinical Outcomes: Evidence From Madhepura District, Bihar
type: item
description: Malaria is a critical social health problem in flood-prone rural areas where the variability in climatic conditions affects the relationship of malaria transmission. This paper determined the effects of seasonal variability on malaria cases and clinical outcomes in Madhepura District, Bihar, by conducting a retrospective cohort analysis on 100 laboratory-confirmed cases of malaria reported in 2012. To study the trend of variations of disease occurrence and severity over time, it was divided into four seasons of the year. The outcomes revealed that there was clear seasonal pattern whereby the highest incidence was recorded during the monsoon season, and then the post-monsoon season and the lowest incidence occurred in winter. Patterns of cases monthly showed a slow increasing trend in the pre-monsoon months, which reached its maximum during peak rainfall. The most vulnerable group was adults between the ages of 15 and 49 years and children were also susceptible to a great extent. The severity of the clinical conditions, such as severe anemia, high parasitemia, and an extended stay in the hospital, were more intense in high seasons of transmission. The results emphasize the fact that malaria incidence and clinical results are highly dependent on such climatic conditions as rainfall, humidity, and temperature. The study highlights the importance of season-sensitive, climate-sensitive malaria control measures to help to minimise disease burden in flood-prone endemic districts.

Assessment of the Effectiveness of Government Malaria Control Programs in Reducing Plasmodium-Related Mortality: A Retrospective Study in Madhepura District, Bihar
type: item
description: Malaria is also a major public health issue in India especially in the rural and flood prone areas where ecological as well as socio-economic parameters favor perpetuated transmission. The study was a retrospective study which assessed the effectiveness of the government malaria control programs in reducing the Plasmodium related mortality in Madhepura district, Bihar, in the period 2005-2012, based on secondary data available as district health records, the National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme, as well as published reports. The descriptive analysis of trends of malaria incidence, mortality, the proportion of cases caused by Plasmodium species, seasonal trends, deaths by age, and coverage of interventions revealed the presence of the persistent transmission and a significant decrease in malaria-related deaths and the proportion of death among cases. Fatalities were more than fifty percent and at the same time the access to early stages of diagnosis and artemisinin-based combination therapy improved as well as the leading role of plasmodium falciparum gradually faded away. The cases of malaria were highly observed during the monsoon season and more deaths were found in children below five years of age and adults between the age of 15-49 years. Altogether, the results suggest that governmental malaria control interventions were efficient in terms of decreasing the number of deaths caused by malaria in the district, whereas the unstopped malaria transmission, seasons of its peak, and demographic factors support the idea that the local, combined, and adapted approach to malaria control is necessary.

Exploration of Belligerent Environments in the selected fictions of Amitav Ghosh: An Eco-critical Discourse
type: item
description: Eco-criticism is a branch of literary scholarship that finds tangible connections between the environment and literature. The environmental problem is one of the most prominent issues of current generation. Climate crisis stands as a sole factor in the environment in view of ecological imbalance. This is an ever increasingly presence in our daily lives. The prominent causes of climate change are an increase of greenhouse gasses, deforestation to develop human settlements, excessive use of fossil fuels and so on. The Sundarbans is the world’s largest contiguous mangrove forest. It is internationally recognized for its unique biodiversity and ecological importance. Ecosystem impacts Climate change has already affected the Sundarbans significantly in terms of sea-level rise and resulting salinization of water and soil. In The Hungry Tide, Jungle Nama and Gun Island, Ghosh’s concerns about the existential crisis that may occur due to such negligence are depicted. Besides, natural calamities, pandemics can also paralyze the world which can occur due to ecological imbalance. He believes that only by caring for and loving other people, humanity will be able to care for and protect mother earth. In this paper, I would like highlight on eco-critical issues reflected in Sundarbans by focusing on the aforesaid works of Amitav Ghosh.

An Integrative Review Of Coeliac Disease: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, And Scope Of Homoeopathic Management
type: item
description: Background: Coeliac disease is a chronic immune-mediated disorder triggered by gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed individuals, leading to small intestinal damage and systemic manifestations. Objective: To review the current understanding of coeliac disease and explore the potential role of homoeopathy as an adjunctive therapeutic approach. Methods: A narrative review of literature was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar focusing on studies published between 2015–2025. Results: Coeliac disease affects approximately 1% of the global population and is characterized by villous atrophy, malabsorption, and diverse clinical manifestations. While a strict gluten-free diet remains the cornerstone of management, a subset of patients continues to experience persistent symptoms. Homoeopathy, based on individualization and holistic principles, may offer supportive management in such cases. Conclusion: Homoeopathy may play a complementary role in improving quality of life and symptom control in coeliac disease; however, further clinical trials are required to establish its efficacy.

Okra Gum as a Natural Biodegradable Polymer: Comparative Evaluation with Synthetic Polymers
type: item
description: The growing environmental concerns associated with non-biodegradable synthetic polymers have intensified the need for sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives in life sciences. In this study, okra gum, a natural polysaccharide extracted from Abelmoschus esculentus, was systematically evaluated as a biodegradable polymer and compared with commonly used synthetic polymers, including polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and polylactic acid (PLA). The investigation encompassed physicochemical characterization, biodegradability, swelling behavior, mechanical properties, and pharmaceutical applicability. The results demonstrated that okra gum exhibited significantly higher biodegradability (85 ± 3%) and swelling capacity (90 ± 4%) compared to synthetic polymers, indicating its superior hydrophilic and eco-friendly nature. Although synthetic polymers showed greater mechanical strength, okra gum provided adequate structural integrity for pharmaceutical applications. Tablet formulation studies further confirmed its effectiveness as a binder, producing tablets with desirable hardness, low friability, and sustained drug release (70 ± 3% over 12 hours). Drug release kinetics followed the Higuchi diffusion model, indicating controlled release behavior mediated by gel layer formation. Additionally, the study highlights the potential application of okra gum in buccal drug delivery systems, where its mucoadhesive and swelling properties facilitate prolonged drug residence time and enhanced bioavailability by bypassing first-pass metabolism. Overall, the findings establish okra gum as a promising, biocompatible, and sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers, with significant potential in controlled drug delivery and biomedical applications

Morphology-Based Identification of Rotifers for Sustainable Aquaculture
type: item
description: Rotifers are microscopic zooplankton that play a crucial role as live feed in aquaculture, particularly during the early developmental stages of fish and crustaceans. Their small size, high nutritional value, ease of digestion, and rapid reproductive capacity make them an ideal food source for larvae, fry, and fingerlings. Accurate identification of rotifer species is essential for their effective utilization and for advancing ecological and taxonomic studies. Although molecular techniques such as DNA barcoding have gained importance, morphological identification remains a simple, cost-effective, and widely used approach. The present study focuses on the morphological classification and identification of rotifers belonging to the phylum Rotifera. Detailed taxonomic keys have been developed based on distinguishing morphological features including body shape, lorica structure, corona, mastax, and trophi types. The classification hierarchy comprises major groups including Monogononta and Bdelloidea, along with their respective orders, families, genera, and species. Identification keys are provided for several important taxa, including genera such as Brachionus, Keratella, Lecane, Trichocerca, and Asplanchna. This work serves as a comprehensive guide for the identification of rotifer species using morphological characteristics, which can facilitate taxonomic studies, biodiversity assessments, and aquaculture practices.

Importance Of Pathya & Apathya According To Ayurveda With Reference To Present Era
type: item
description: Diseases are caused due to incompatibility between the person and the aahara, vihara and kala ( season) he enjoys. Therefore to alleviate the diseases or the doshas Pathya and Apathyas are advocated by Ayurveda (do’s and don’ts). These should be planned accordingly to the individual person and with reference to Aahara, Vihara (daily routine work), kala and the manas or satwa of the particular person. This planning should be based upon the amshamsha kalpana of the disease based on the dosha, dooshya, kala and satwa.

“Human Gut Microbiota and Ayurveda: A Conceptual Study”
type: item
description: Background and objectives: The term gut microbiota, gut microbiome or gut flora refer to thr community of micro-organisms such as bacteria, archaea, fungi and viruses that reside in the digestive systems of animals. In Ayurveda, Agni (digestive fire) is central to health, facilitating digestion, absorption, and assimilation of nutrients. Impairment of Agni (Agni Dusti) leads to the formation of Ama (toxic by-products), a key factor in disease. Modern science recognizes the gut microflora’s(microbiota) role in digestion, metabolism, and immune modulation. This paper explores the interference of gut microflora in Agni Dusti and Ama formation, integrating Ayurvedic concepts with contemporary biomedical insights. Materials and Methods: Review of classical Ayurvedic texts explaining Agni, Agni Dusti, and Ama. Analysis of modern research on gut microbiota, dysbiosis, and digestive health. “Ayurvedic texts like Charaka Samhita were analyzed along with articles based on modern gut microbiome studies.” Results: Ama symptoms like fatigue, coated tongue, and indigestion linked to microbial dysbiosis. Pro-inflammatory effects of Ama in Ayurveda compared to modern gut toxin effects. Discussion: Shodhana therapy, Samsarjana krama and Pathya–apathya according to various diseases plays a significant role not only in removing the endotoxins and disease as a whole but also helps to reestablish internal environment of intestine and microbiota thus help achieving health and longevity.

A Pilot Study on Nisha Triphaladi Yoga in Apatyanimittaja Madhumeha (Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus): A Single-Arm Pre–Post Quasi-Experimental Evaluation
type: item
description: Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), a common growing global health issue, inadequately controlled despite various advances in modern science or pharmacotherapy, which carries lacunae like side effect and long term dependency. Ayurveda correlates T2DM with Madhumeha, disorder with kapha-medo predominant, described under Ashta-Mahagada. Nisha Triphaladi Yoga is a classical formulation mentioned for Prameha, yet scientific evidence for its efficacy in early T2DM remains limited. This study aims to address this gap and evaluate its effect on subjective symptoms as well as RBS levels. Objective: Was to evaluate the effect of Nisha Triphaladi Yoga on subjective Ayurvedic parameters as well as Random Blood Sugar (RBS) in patients with T2DM. Methods: A single-arm interventional clinical study was conducted on 30 participants diagnosed with Apatyanimittaja Madhumeha. Nisha Triphaladi Yoga was administered for a period of 90 days. Assessment carried out was symptom grading (Bahumutrata, Atikshudha, Karapada Daha, Suptata) and RBS at baseline and after treatment. Data were analysed using paired t-tests and Wilcoxon signed rank test. Results: Marked improvement was observed among subjective symptoms. Bahumutrata reduced from 1.70 to 0.30 (p < 0.0001), Atikshudha from 1.65 to 0.30 (p < 0.0001) and Karapada Daha/Suptata from 1.65 to 0.35 (p < 0.0001). Mean RBS reduced from 227.00 mg/dl to 153.80 mg/dl (p < 0.0001). No adverse events were noted. Conclusion: Nisha Triphaladi Yoga demonstrated marked improvement in early-stage T2DM (Apatyanimittaja Madhumeha) with reduction in symptoms as well RBS ranges. Intervention was safe and well tolerated. Further larger controlled trials are needed in order to validate these findings.

Success Story of Watershed Management: Case study of Naregudem Village, Kattangur Mandal, Nalgonda District, Telangana
type: item
description: Water supports life, population growth and itsImpact in all development spheres. With only 2.4 percent of the world landmass and 4 percent of the renewable water supplies, India supports 18 percent of the world population and 15 percent of all livestock. India largely relies on its agricultural sector as it contributes to its 14 percent GDP and 11 percent exports. Roughly half of the population relies on agriculture as their main source of income and other industries use agriculture as a source of raw materials. 76 percent of the global population had less than 5,100 cubic metrics per annum percapita water availability. It is estimated that by 2030 most population of the earth is going to be living under low supply of water (source: International resource panel (IRP)). The categories of water users in the world are estimated not to change much projecting an increase in the consumption of water considering urbanization in the developing countries. The control of water scarcity has been aimed at improving the efficiency of water use and closing the shortage of infrastructure through watershed management. India has the Integrated Watershed Management Programme (IWMP), which is carried out by the Ministry of Rural Development in Telangana with the objective to reduce the impact of long-term famine. This program facilitates planned agricultural development in rural areas with planned watershed interventions. A good example of how watershed management and livelihood intervention strategies can be successfully integrated is in Naregudem village in Kattangoor Mandal, Nalgonda district.

Water Quality Alterations of a Tropical Suburban Lentic Ecosystem Due to Sewage Influx
type: item
description: Lentic freshwater bodies serve mankind in different ways of which prime importance bags as sources of drinking water for local population. However, unscrupulous activities of mankind destroy pristine water sources by discharge of sewage, effluents, plastic pollution, etc. An investigation was undertaken to assess heavy metal content and seasonal physico-chemical parameters in a suburban sewage dumping pond in comparison with a neighbouring non-sewage dumping pond. Seasonal water samples were analysed to quantify trace metals (Pb, Cd, Cr, Ni, and Zn) and physico-chemical parameters such as temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) employing standard methods and procedures. Pre-monsoon registered significantly elevated concentrations of heavy metals in the sewage-fed pond. Physico-chemical parameters exhibited marked seasonal variability with EC, TDS and COD demonstrating positive correlations with heavy metal concentrations, suggesting enhanced metal solubility and mobility under altered hydro-chemical conditions. Pearson correlation and principal component analysis (PCA), revealed strong interrelationships between anthropogenic inputs, redox potential, and seasonal fluctuations. The study underscores the synergistic effect of sewage influx and seasonal variation on metal speciation and aquatic chemistry, advocating the urgent need for integrated pond ecosystem management.

Evaluation of Heavy Metal Contamination in Irrigation Water from the Yamuna River: A Review
type: item
description: Delhi relies on the Yamuna River, one of the nation's most contaminated. Yamuna River is the main irrigation and water source. Farmers farm the entire Yamuna Pusta. Water quality depends on physicochemical and biological qualities. pH, temperature, and minute amounts of necessary and superfluous metals in water can make it unsafe for humans. Home and industrial sources cause 85% of pollution. Private and industrial waste from coal washery, plastic, steel, food processing, metal work, and leather tanning pollutes the river. The principal sources of heavy metal contamination in water are these activities. Metals in polluted soil bioaccumulate in crops. Heavy metal ions like Cd (II), Hg (II), Pb (II), Ni (II), As (V and III), Cr (VI), and Cu (II) in water can cause liver damage, kidney impairment, stomach and skin tumors, mental ailments, and reproductive system damage. Therefore, heavy metal effluence in water must be measured and eliminated. This study examines Yamuna River water and agricultural samples. To study heavy metals' harmful consequences.

Heavy Metal Characteristics and Their Spatial-Temporal Distribution in Trans-Yamuna Aquifer, Palwal District, Haryana, India
type: item
description: The Trans-Yamuna aquifer in Palwal District, Haryana, India, is a vital water source for both agricultural and domestic uses. This study explores the characteristics and spatial-temporal distribution of heavy metals within this aquifer to evaluate potential environmental and health risks. Over the course of one year, water samples were systematically collected from various sites within the aquifer. Heavy metal concentrations—specifically lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), and chromium (Cr)—were measured using advanced analytical techniques such as atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The results reveal notable spatial variability in metal concentrations, with higher levels detected near industrial and agricultural areas. Additionally, seasonal variations were observed, with elevated metal concentrations during the monsoon season, attributed to runoff and leaching. Heavy metal concentrations were generally higher than permissible limits at most sites, ranging from 0.001 to 0.8 ppm, except for iron, which exhibited different behavior. Zinc showed the highest concentration variability, while cadmium had minimal fluctuation. A significant increase in cobalt (Co) and iron (Fe) concentrations, along with a decrease in groundwater quality, was noted in the post-monsoon period. Metal abundances varied, with the following order observed: Fe > Pb > Ni > Zn > Cr > Cd > Cu > Co > Mn in pre-monsoon and Ni > Zn > Fe > Cd > Cu > Pb > Co > Cr > Mn in post-monsoon periods. Rural areas exhibited a marked change in metal abundance patterns. Correlation analysis revealed a stronger relationship among deep groundwater samples in pre-monsoon compared to post-monsoon samples, with the highest correlation found in urban areas. Overall, heavy metal concentrations exhibited a concentric zonal distribution, with higher levels near the urban-rural fringe and decreasing towards the periphery.

Unraveled Insights Behind The Kazhugumalai Jain Beds
type: item
description: This research explores the rock-cut heritage of Kazhugumalai, situated in the Thoothukudi district of Tamil Nadu, as a definitive archaeological and epigraphical record of early medieval Jainism. Renowned as the "Ellora of the South" for its monolithic Hindu Vettuvan Koil, Kazhugumalai simultaneously serves as the largest repository of Jain inscriptions and sculptures in far south India. This study examines the iconographic program of over 150 bas-relief Tirthankara figures, analyzing their stylistic evolution under the patronage of the early Pandyas. Centrally, the paper focuses on the collection of nearly 102 Vatteluthu inscriptions that document a sophisticated monastic network. Unlike royal land-grant charters, these "votive labels" serve as primary evidence for an "open-air university," detailing pedagogical lineages between monk-teachers (kuravadigal) and students (manakki). These records reveal a significant socio-religious phenomenon: the high status of female ascetics (kurattigal), who are recorded as both esteemed scholars and independent donors. By synthesizing archaeological evidence from primary works by C. Sivaramamurti and P.B. Desai, this research argues that Kazhugumalai was not merely a site of isolated penance but a thriving center of Jain theology and religious syncretism that interconnected major southern Jain hubs like Kottar and Chitharal. The findings underscore the enduring legacy of the Jain community within the broader cultural and architectural landscape of the Tamil country during the 8th and 9th centuries C.E.
