Unearthing the Voices Within: Pre-service Teachers’ Critical Perspectives on the Climate Crisis through Photovoice
This qualitative study explores pre-service teachers’ critical perspectives on the climate crisis using the Photovoice methodology. Nine pre-service teachers documented environmental realities in their communities through photographs and accompanying narratives. Thematic analysis revealed five major themes: urbanization and heat islands, deforestation, waste burning and pollution, drought and agricultural vulnerability, and flooding and infrastructure failure. The findings show that participants view climate change as both an ecological and a socio-economic concern, connecting environmental degradation with human behavior, economic survival, and gaps in policy. Photovoice proved to be a powerful tool for critical reflection and the development of environmental consciousness among future teachers.
Aggression and Anxiety in Tiffin vs. Non-Tiffin Feeder School Children: A Comparative Study
School environments play a vital role in shaping children’s psychological development. The present study compared aggression and anxiety levels between Tiffin feeder and Non-Tiffin feeder school children. A total of 60 students aged 13–14 years were selected (30 Tiffin feeder and 30 Non-Tiffin feeder) from a school in Mirzapur, India. Standardized scales for aggression and anxiety were administered, and group differences were examined using t-tests. Findings revealed that Tiffin feeder children displayed higher aggression scores compared to their Non-Tiffin counterparts. Anxiety patterns varied: Tiffin feeder children scored higher in some subscales (separation anxiety, social phobia), while Non-Tiffin feeder children scored higher on panic/agoraphobia and general anxiety. These results suggest that differences in school routines and support systems may influence emotional well-being. The study highlights the need for targeted interventions to reduce anxiety and aggression among school children.

Differential Adaptations in Resting Heart Rate Following Moderate-Intensity Aerobic and Sport-Specific Skill Training in University Athletes
The present study aimed to compare the differential adaptations in resting heart rate following moderate-intensity aerobic training and sport-specific skill training among university-level team sport athletes. Resting heart rate is an important physiological indicator of cardiovascular fitness, autonomic regulation, and training adaptation, and lower resting heart rates are generally associated with improved athletic performance and recovery. A randomized pre-test and post-test experimental design was employed for the study. Sixty-three male college athletes aged between 19 and 23 years, representing basketball, football, and handball, were selected using purposive random sampling. The subjects were randomly assigned into three groups: Moderate-Intensity Aerobic Training (MIAT; n = 21), Skill Training (SKT; n = 21), and Control Group (CG; n = 21). The experimental groups underwent their respective training interventions for 12 weeks, while the control group followed their regular activities without any specialized training programme. Resting heart rate was measured before and after the intervention period. The collected data were analyzed using the dependent t-test, Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA), and Scheffé's post hoc test at a 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed significant reductions in resting heart rate in both experimental groups. The dependent t-values of the MIAT (34.92) and SKT (13.29) groups were significantly higher than the table value (2.08). The ANCOVA results further demonstrated significant differences among the groups (F = 130.37, p < 0.05). The post hoc analysis indicated that both training methods were superior to the control group, with moderate-intensity aerobic training producing greater improvements in resting heart rate than skill training. The study concluded that moderate-intensity aerobic training is more effective than sport-specific skill training in eliciting favorable cardiovascular adaptations and reducing resting heart rate among university-level basketball, football, and handball athletes. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating aerobic conditioning programmes for enhancing cardiovascular efficiency, recovery capacity, and overall athletic performance in team sport athletes.
Harmonizing International Arbitration Framework: A Critical Analysis over Industrial Dispute Act,1947 and Plantation Labor Act,1951

This not only substituted by means of a chief problem leading-edge the growth of the industrial sector, but also extremely affected the economy of the nation. Industrial disputes similarly postpone the production of the workers, and henceforward the production of the occupational similarly discounts. According to Section 2 of the Industrial Dispute Act, 1947, "industrial dispute" precedes "selected disagreement or modification amidst supervisors (companies) then executives, between corporations as well workmen, previously between workmen as well workmen, which is allied complete the engagement or non-employment, the understandings of employment, beforehand the conditions of work of certain separate." Presiding finished finished Supreme Court cutting-edge the condition Tata Chemicals Ltd. vs Workmen (AIR 1978, SC, 828), happening description of industrial difference saying “Industrial disagreement is not solitary a difference amongst an manager to a recognized normal union however it too encompasses some difference or alteration among superior then workmen including subversive union of workmen which is related finished facility or footholds of facility or situations of work of workmen”. When a facility contract is not followed, a deviation is raised under the Industrial Dispute Act of 1947. The glitches can comprise salary stresses, plus stresses, amalgamation opposition, partisan intrusion; employment issues, etc., which lead to industrial disputes besides the succeeding occupation of assaults, lockouts, and dharnas.
Impact of the Mission Kakatiya Programme on Scheduled Tribes: A Study from Warangal District of Telangana
A Nation's agricultural, social, and economic development depends heavily on irrigation. The production of food has been stabilized via irrigation. essential component of the production process in agriculture. Some civilizations have endured for thousands of years with sustainable irrigation, while others have seen their civilizations rise and die with the development and demise of their irrigation systems. Around two-thirds of agricultural production in India comes from irrigated agriculture, which has significantly reduced the country's dependence on foodgrains. The building of dams and irrigation systems has lowered the rate of poverty from 69% to 10% when the crops are farmed under guaranteed irrigation. The Mission Kakatiya initiatives will increase the ground water level around the village tank as well as the water storage capacity of the village tanks during the rainy season. The availability of water in the village tanks supports the expansion of agriculture and local livelihood options.
From Tourist Attraction Center to the making of Drug Rehabilitation Center: An era of Drug Epidemic in Jammu and Kashmir
Drug addiction is a commonly and widely shared concern of the global community in contemporary realm. Unlike the conventional threats that were generally caused and curbed by the states as analyzed by classical theorists, modern issues and threats are generally non-conventional, mostly transnational and more devastating in nature, which makes a single nation-state insufficient and incapable to encounter with. To address these issues a consensus for global cooperation and global governance is developed among the nation-states that ultimately leads to belief in international organizations based on cooperation and collective actions. Drug addiction is one such non-conventional issue that seeks global cooperation and attention in order to launch a “global war on drugs." While the global governments and international community are working to curb this menace, the overall rate of addiction has increased, particularly because of the involvement of technology in the dispersal of drugs intra- and extra-border. This paper solely focuses on the issue of drug addiction and its causes with special reference to a particular region, i.e., Jammu and Kashmir. It aims to highlight the seriousness of the issue and to create awareness on the same both at home and abroad, so that the essence of the phrase “Think globally, Act locally” could be realized. It also sheds light on the governmental and civil societies' actions and policies to address the issue.

Geographical Study of the Spatial Distribution Pattern and Changing Dimensions of Literacy in Ambedkar Nagar District, Uttar Pradesh
This research paper examines the literacy patterns and their changing trends in Ambedkar Nagar district of Uttar Pradesh, situated in the Middle Ganga Plain (Awadh region). Using secondary data, the study analyzes literacy from spatial, temporal, and demographic perspectives. The findings show that literacy levels in the district have steadily improved over time, accompanied by a reduction in the gap between male and female literacy rates. The study further reveals significant regional variations in literacy. Urban centers such as Akbarpur, the district headquarters, and the industrial towns of Tanda and Jalalpur record relatively high literacy levels due to better educational infrastructure and socio-economic opportunities. However, disparities remain within the surrounding rural areas, where literacy rates are comparatively lower. The most remote and peripheral rural regions continue to face challenges in achieving educational progress. In recent years, the concept of literacy has expanded beyond basic reading and writing skills to include digital literacy and skill-based learning. These emerging dimensions are playing an important role in enhancing human capital and supporting the district’s demographic dividend. The study concludes that balanced and localized planning strategies are necessary to reduce regional inequalities and promote inclusive literacy development across all parts of Ambedkar Nagar district.

Reframing Moral Philosophy through Disabled Ethics: Autonomy, Personhood, and the Politics of Care
This paper critically explores how disabled ethics reshapes traditional moral philosophy by challenging dominant notions of autonomy, personhood, and justice. Positioned against the ableist foundations of Western moral thought, disabled ethics emphasizes inclusion, interdependence, and the lived experiences of disabled individuals. Tracing its intellectual lineage from classical and religious texts to contemporary disability rights movements, the paper contrasts the medical model of disability with the social and relational models. Drawing on key theorists like Eva Feder Kittay, Lennard Davis, Anita Silvers, and others, it argues for an ethics rooted in care, vulnerability, and mutual dependency rather than abstract rationality or independence. The discussion incorporates intersectional and non-Western perspectives—highlighting the cultural, spiritual, and social meanings attached to disability across African, South Asian, East Asian, and Islamic traditions. The study concludes by examining the policy implications of disabled ethics in healthcare, education, and law, advocating for proactive inclusion and participatory justice. Ultimately, the paper redefines the moral landscape to affirm that justice and dignity must account for the full spectrum of human embodiment and interdependence.

Kausalwissenschaftliche Struktur-Soziologie Soziale Naturgesetze, Verhaltensverteilungen und die Illusion individueller Autonomie
Dieser Beitrag formuliert eine kausalwissenschaftliche Struktur-Soziologie als explizite Alternative zu interpretativen und konstruktivistischen Paradigmen der Gegenwartssoziologie. Im Zentrum steht die These, dass individuelles Verhalten nicht primär durch intentionale Entscheidungen, sondern durch strukturell erzeugte Verhaltensverteilungen bestimmt ist. Zur Erklärung dieser Verteilungen wird das Konzept sozialer Naturgesetze eingeführt. Diese bezeichnen stabile, kausale Mechanismen, die unabhängig von subjektiven Bedeutungszuschreibungen wirken. Drei fundamentale Gesetzesbereiche werden identifiziert: (1) Macht und Gewalt, (2) Konformität und (3) Massenpsychologie. Der Ansatz integriert Mikro-, Meso- und Makroebenen in einer geschlossenen Kausalarchitektur und zeigt, dass gesellschaftliche Dynamiken als gesetzmäßig strukturierte Prozesse analysiert werden können. Damit wird der Anspruch erneuert und vervollständigt, Soziologie als erklärende Wissenschaft im Sinne einer Sozialphysik bzw. „Physik der Gesellschaft“ zu begründen.
विवाहिता व अविवाहिता छात्राध्यापकों के संवेगात्मक बुद्धि का अध्ययन
शिक्षा के वास्तविक और व्यापक अर्थ में उसके उद्देश्य भी बहुत व्यापक और बहुआयमी है जो शारीरिक, मानसिक, सामाजिक विकास के साथ-साथ नैतिक, चारित्रक, व्यावसायिक तथा आध्यामिक विकास तक विस्तीर्म है। इस स्थिति में शिक्षा के सभी रुपों औपचारिक, अनौपचारिक तथा निरौपचारिक के द्वारा उसका प्रमुख उद्देश्य व्यक्ति का सर्वांगीण विकास ही होना चाहिए। शिक्षा ही वस्तुतः किसी राष्ट्र की प्रगति का मानदण्ड है। कोई भी राष्ट्र अपने दक्ष मानवीय संसाधनों द्वारा समूह बनता है। शिक्षा व्यक्ति के सामाजिक जीवन का एक महत्वपूर्ण अंग है जो उसे अपने जीवन के लक्ष्यों की प्राप्ति में सहायता करती है। शिक्षा मानव सभ्यता की सर्वाधिक मूल्यवान धरोहर है। समस्त विश्व को एक सूत्र में पिरोने तथा मनुष्य और मनुष्य के बीच सद्भाव की स्थापना में शिक्षा की बड़ी-बड़ी भूमिका है जिसे नकारा नहीं जा सकता है। किसी भी क्रिया की तरह शिक्षा भी तथा व्यवहार दोनों का संश्लेस है। वास्ताविक अनुभवों की प्रक्रिया में हमारे सम्मुख अनेक समस्याएँ उत्पन्न होती हैं। इनके समाधान का पहला पक्ष होता है इस पर विचार करना तथा दूसरा पक्ष है उपयुक्त सिद्धान्तों का निर्माण करना। शिक्षा के विभिन्न पक्षों का तादात्म्य जीवन के इन्हीं आधारभूत प्रश्नों के समाधान खोजने का प्रयत्न करता है।
