Indian climate diplomacy: A soft power tool
type: item
description: Climate change is currently a significant issue in international relations in today's world, as it impacts development, security, the economy, global cooperation, and public health. From this perspective, the significance of India's climate diplomacy as a key soft power instrument for its country's mission to build its international image, advance its developmental interests and play a role in international climate governance has come to the fore. The principles of climate justice, equity and common but differentiated responsibilities and sustainable development are the core tenets of India's climate diplomacy. Rather than climate action being an environmental issue, India has leveraged it as a diplomacy tool to position itself as a responsible, cooperative and solution-oriented global player. The International Solar Alliance, Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure, Mission LiFE and India's involvement in the G20 climate agenda are but a few examples of how India's commitment to renewable energy, disaster resilience, civilizational values and Global South concerns come together. Other home-grown initiatives like the expansion of renewable energy, the planning of green hydrogen, rooftop solar schemes and climate policy transformation further bolster India's international credibility. The study demonstrates that India's climate diplomacy is not only about reducing emissions but also a policy of enlightenment with moral leadership, institutional collaboration, ideas of sustainable lifestyle and development partnership. In this way, Indian climate diplomacy can be seen as a contemporary soft power in the new order of the world.

Effect of Cervical Traction and Exercise Therapy in the Management of Cervical Radiculopathy: A Case Study
type: item
description: Background: Cervical radiculopathy is a clinical condition in which irritation or compression of a cervical nerve root produces neck pain with radiating arm pain, paraesthesia, sensory alteration, reflex change, or weakness in a myotomal pattern. It commonly arises from intervertebral disc protrusion, foraminal narrowing, spondylotic degeneration, or combined mechanical and inflammatory factors. Conservative physiotherapy is widely used when there is no progressive neurological deficit or red-flag pathology. Cervical traction is intended to reduce foraminal compression and nerve-root irritation, while exercise therapy aims to restore mobility, improve deep cervical and scapular muscle control, correct posture, and promote self-management. Clinical guidelines support a multimodal approach in chronic neck pain with radiating pain, including intermittent mechanical traction combined with stretching, strengthening, and mobilization-based exercise when clinically indicated.4 Presentation of Case: This case study describes a 38-year-old male office worker who presented with right-sided neck pain radiating to the lateral forearm and thumb for six weeks. Symptoms increased during prolonged computer work, mobile phone use, overhead activity, and sustained neck extension. The patient reported disturbed sleep, reduced work tolerance, difficulty driving for long periods, and fear of arm weakness. Examination suggested C6 nerve root involvement with restricted cervical range of motion, positive Spurling test, positive upper limb tension test, relief with cervical distraction, reduced biceps reflex, and mild weakness of wrist extensors. Magnetic resonance imaging showed posterolateral disc protrusion at C5-C6 with right foraminal narrowing. The patient was medically stable and suitable for conservative physiotherapy. Intervention: The patient received a six-week physiotherapy programme consisting of intermittent mechanical cervical traction and progressive exercise therapy. Tract…

Effect of Gait Training on Functional Recovery in a Patient with Left Middle Cerebral Artery (MCA) Stroke: A Case Study
type: item
description: Background: Stroke involving the left middle cerebral artery commonly produces right hemiparesis with impaired selective motor control, reduced balance reactions, asymmetrical weight bearing, slow walking, poor endurance, and difficulty in daily mobility. Gait training is a central component of neurophysiotherapy because walking ability determines independence in transfers, toileting, household ambulation, community participation, and return to family roles. A structured gait programme combines postural preparation, task-specific stepping, stance control, rhythmic practice, feedback, strength training, balance activities, and progressive functional walking tasks. This case study describes the effect of gait training on functional recovery in a patient with left MCA stroke. Presentation of Case: A 57-year-old right-handed male presented to the physiotherapy department six weeks after a first-ever left MCA ischemic stroke. He had right-sided weakness, mild expressive speech difficulty, reduced confidence in standing, and dependence for indoor walking. He was medically stable, alert, cooperative, and able to follow simple verbal and visual instructions. The main complaints were dragging of the right foot, reduced stance time on the right lower limb, fear of falling, difficulty turning, inability to climb stairs independently, and fatigue after short walking distance. Intervention: The patient received six weeks of supervised gait training, five sessions per week, with each session lasting approximately forty-five to sixty minutes. Treatment included trunk alignment, sit-to-stand practice, supported weight shifting, affected-limb loading, stepping drills, ankle dorsiflexor facilitation, knee control training, overground gait practice, treadmill walking with safety support, visual cueing, obstacle negotiation, stair practice, endurance walking, and a structured home programme. Progression was guided by quality of movement, safety, fatigue, balance response, walking speed…

type: item
description: Background: Mental health disorders represent a significant public health challenge in India, with urban populations facing unique stressors related to rapid urbanization, occupational demands, and socio-economic pressures. Bhopal, the capital city of Madhya Pradesh, has witnessed increasing mental health concerns among its residents, yet community-based psychological interventions remain limited. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured psychoeducational intervention on psychological well-being, perceived stress, and coping strategies among adults residing in Bhopal. Methods: A pre-experimental one-group pre-test post-test design was adopted. A total of 60 adults (age 21–45 years) were selected from urban localities of Bhopal using non-probability convenient sampling technique. A comprehensive structured questionnaire comprising the Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWBS), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), and Brief COPE inventory was administered before and after a four-week psychoeducational intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, including paired t-tests. Results: The mean pre-test psychological well-being score was 52.4 (SD = 8.6), which significantly increased to 68.7 (SD = 7.2) in the post-test (t = 14.32, p < 0.001). Perceived stress scores decreased from a mean of 32.1 (SD = 6.8) to 22.4 (SD = 5.9) (t = 13.87, p < 0.001). Significant improvements were also observed in adaptive coping strategies, with problem-focused coping scores increasing from 18.3 (SD = 4.2) to 24.6 (SD = 3.8) (t = 11.45, p < 0.001). Conclusion: The structured psychoeducational intervention was found to be effective in enhancing psychological well-being, reducing perceived stress, and promoting adaptive coping strategies among adults in Bhopal. The findings underscore the need for integrating community-based psychological interventions into urban public health frameworks.

मोदी युग में भारतीय विदेश नीति और वैश्विक दक्षिण में भारत की भूमिकाः 2014 से वर्तमान तक
type: item
description: वर्ष 2014 के बाद भारतीय विदेश नीति के स्वरूप में स्पष्ट परिवर्तन दिखाई देता है। इस अवधि में भारत की विदेश नीति अधिक सक्रिय, बहुआयामी, व्यावहारिक और वैश्विक नेतृत्व की ओर उन्मुख हुई है। प्रधानमंत्री नरेन्द्र मोदी के नेतृत्व में भारत ने अपनी विदेश नीति को केवल द्विपक्षीय संबंधों तक सीमित न रखकर क्षेत्रीय सहयोग, वैश्विक साझेदारी और विकासशील देशों के हितों से जोड़ा। “पड़ोसी प्रथम”, “एक्ट ईस्ट”, “सागर”, “वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम्” और “विश्वबंधु” जैसी अवधारणाओं ने भारत की कूटनीतिक सोच को नई दिशा प्रदान की। इस दौर में भारत ने दक्षिण एशिया, हिंद-प्रशांत क्षेत्र, अफ्रीका, लैटिन अमेरिका और छोटे द्वीपीय देशों के साथ संबंधों को मजबूत करने का प्रयास किया। वैश्विक दक्षिण के संदर्भ में भारत ने स्वयं को विकासशील देशों की आवाज के रूप में प्रस्तुत किया। वर्ष 2023 में जी-20 अध्यक्षता के दौरान भारत ने खाद्य सुरक्षा, ऊर्जा संकट, ऋण-संकट, जलवायु न्याय, स्वास्थ्य सुरक्षा, डिजिटल सार्वजनिक अवसंरचना और बहुपक्षीय संस्थाओं में सुधार जैसे मुद्दों को प्रमुखता दी। अफ्रीकी संघ को जी-20 का स्थायी सदस्य बनवाने में भारत की भूमिका वैश्विक दक्षिण के प्रतिनिधित्व की दृष्टि से अत्यंत महत्त्वपूर्ण रही। इसी प्रकार “वॉयस ऑफ ग्लोबल साउथ समिट” के माध्यम से भारत ने विकासशील देशों की चिंताओं को अंतरराष्ट्रीय विमर्श के केंद्र में लाने का प्रयास किया। प्रस्तुत शोध-पत्र 2014 से वर्तमान तक मोदी युग में भारतीय विदेश नीति की बदलती दिशा, प्राथमिकताओं और वैश्विक दक्षिण में भारत की भूमिका का विश्लेषण करता है।

Exploring the Role of Nanomaterials in Improving Solar Cell Efficiency
type: item
description: Despite the fact that solar PV technology plays a key role in the global shift to renewable energy, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of traditional silicon-based PV cells is limited by inherent optical and electronic losses, including the Shockley–Queisser limit. In the last ten years, the use of light trapping, light absorption, charge separation and charge transport nanomaterials, such as quantum dots, perovskite nanocrystals, carbon nanotubes, graphene, plasmonic nanoparticles and nanostructured metal oxides, have been identified as a promising way to address these challenges. In this paper, the potential of utilizing nanomaterials to enhance solar cell efficiency is investigated by critically reviewing and analyzing secondary information obtained from peer-reviewed journals and publications from 2018 to 2025. The paper compares efficiency data from three types of quantum-dot sensitised solar cell, perovskite solar cell, dye-sensitised solar cell, and carbon-nanomaterial based solar cell, and puts these in perspective with the efficiency data for conventional silicon solar cells. Results suggest that the incorporation of nanomaterials has led to measurable improvements in efficiency over the years, with perovskite solar cells increasing from less than four percent in power conversion efficiency to more than twenty-five percent in just about a decade, and has imposed novel challenges in long-term stability, environmental toxicity and scalable manufacturing. The paper notes that nanomaterials hold the promise of a truly promising but still developing route towards next-generation PV, though further research is needed in the areas of durability, encapsulation, and cost-effective fabrication that will make it viable to enter into more widespread commercialization.

Reading Habits and Library Usage Pattern among College Students in Bhopal
type: item
description: Higher education cannot function without academic libraries, yet in the digital era, student reading habits are changing quickly. This research uses a thorough descriptive survey approach with a structured self-administered questionnaire to examine the reading habits and library use patterns of 100 college students in Bhopal. Chi-square, Wilcoxon signed-rank, and Pearson correlation tests were used to analyze the data using SPSS version 26.0 at a significance level of 0.05. The findings show that library use is primarily motivated by exams, with daily visits increasing from 8% during normal sessions to 45% during exam times. This difference was determined to be statistically significant (χ²=58.42, p<0.001). Due to less eye strain and improved attention, print materials continue to be the preferred medium for 47% of respondents, greatly outperforming digital forms (Z=-4.82, p<0.001). Student happiness and the frequency of library visits are somewhat positively correlated (r=0.42, p<0.001). Outdated book collections (38%), inadequate seats (48%), and poor internet access (45%) are the main obstacles. According to the study's findings, college libraries in Bhopal are mostly used for exams. Institutions must immediately fix infrastructure shortcomings, improve the availability of digital resources, and aggressively encourage information literacy among the student body in order to promote long-term academic engagement and lifetime reading habits.

An Analytical Investigation Of Academic Stress And Mental Health Among College Students In Higher Education
type: item
description: The issue of academic stress has become an important one among college students, since it is caused by high academic standards, exam pressure, heavy workloads and future career uncertainty, all of which may have a harmful effect on students' psychological state. The purpose of this research paper is to estimate the level of academic stress of students, to consider their mental health and to explore the connection between academic stress and mental health of students in higher education institutions. The research design used in this study was quantitative, descriptive and analytical. It included the cross-sectional survey method. Primary data were obtained from 150 undergraduate and graduate students of different programs by means of a structured questionnaire based on the five-point Likert scale. The collected data were processed through IBM SPSS Statistics (Version 26.0) by using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation and multiple linear regression analysis. As the result of the conducted research, it was found that there was a high level of academic stress among college students, where exam pressure, academic workload and assignment deadline were recognized as the main sources of stress. Besides, the respondents reported moderate to high level of mental health problems, including academic anxiety, emotional exhaustion, difficulties concentrating and sleeping problems. According to the results of correlation analysis, there was a significant negative correlation between academic stress and mental health, whereas, according to the results of regression analysis, academic stress turned out to be the significant predictor of students' psychological state. The research paper shows that the excessive academic stress has a harmful influence on the mental health of college students.

Postcolonial Hybridity And Existential Anxiety In Bharati Mukherjee's Desirable Daughters: An Analysis Of Diasporic Consciousness
type: item
description: This postcolonial hybridity and existential anxiety are explored in Bharati Mukherjee's Desirable Daughters with the perspective of the diasporic consciousness. It discusses the process of creating hybrid identities and psychological conflicts among migrants due to migration, cultural displacement and the encounter of India's tradition with its modernity. In this study a qualitative and interpretative method is used to capture or examine the experiences of alienation, displacement, negotiation of identity, development of the self, and cultural belonging of Tara, a postcolonial literary theory is used for the analysis. The findings reveal that diasporic identity is not fixed but fluid and continuously being built, unbuilt and rebuilt in various ways in the context of memory, migration, and in the context of transcultural encounters. The research also reveals the continuing process of the conflict between cultural values and the present social situation generating existential anxiety that forces people to engage in multiple negotiations of identity, and to seek to belong and be autonomous. It argues that Desirable Daughters is a rich depiction of postcolonial hybridity and diasporic consciousness and is a good example of complex processes of identity formation in multicultural and transnational contexts.

Phytochemical Screening, Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activity of Martynia annua L. Leaf Extracts
type: item
description: In the quest for natural antioxidants and antibacterial chemicals to fight oxidative stress and antimicrobial resistance, medicinal plants continue to be an essential source of innovative therapeutic agents. The goal of the current research was to assess the antibacterial potential, antioxidant activity, and phytochemical components of various solvent extracts of Martynia annua L. leaves. Petroleum ether, ethanol, and distilled water were used in cold maceration to create leaf extracts. Alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, glycosides, terpenoids, steroids, saponins, carbohydrates, and proteins were found in preliminary phytochemical screening; the ethanolic extract showed the widest range of secondary metabolites. The ethanol extract had the greatest total phenolic content (112.45 ± 3.28 mg GAE/g) and total flavonoid content (68.74 ± 2.01 mg QE/g), according to quantitative estimate. The DPPH free-radical scavenging test was used to measure antioxidant activity. The ethanolic extract showed a dose-dependent response with the lowest IC•₀ value of 45.23 µg/mL, while the aqueous extract had a value of 74.85 µg/mL. When Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were screened for antibacterial activity using agar well diffusion and broth microdilution, the ethanol extract demonstrated the strongest activity, with the largest zone of inhibition (18.14 ± 0.68 mm) and the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration (0.625 mg/mL) against B. subtilis. There was very little action in the petroleum ether extract. These findings confirm the traditional therapeutic usage of M. annua and call for further separation and characterisation of its bioactive components. They also show that the ethanolic leaf extract of M. annua is a potential source of antioxidant and antibacterial phytochemicals.

Review paper on Power Quality of Bidirectional Rectifier for Electric Vehicle Charging System
type: item
description: The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has significantly increased the demand for efficient and grid-friendly charging infrastructures. Bidirectional rectifiers have emerged as a key technology in EV charging systems, enabling two-way power flow between the vehicle and the grid, commonly referred to as Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) operations. This bidirectional capability not only enhances energy utilization but also supports grid stability by allowing EVs to function as distributed energy storage systems. However, the integration of bidirectional rectifiers introduces critical power quality challenges, including harmonic distortion, poor power factor, voltage fluctuations, and increased electromagnetic interference. This review paper presents a comprehensive analysis of power quality issues associated with bidirectional rectifiers in EV charging systems. Various rectifier topologies such as PWM-based active front-end converters, multilevel rectifiers, and transformer-less configurations are examined in terms of their impact on total harmonic distortion (THD), efficiency, and power factor improvement. The study also highlights the limitations of conventional unidirectional rectifiers, which suffer from nonlinear behavior and degraded power quality, thereby emphasizing the advantages of active bidirectional designs. Furthermore, the paper reviews advanced control strategies, including power factor correction (PFC), adaptive controllers, and intelligent techniques, aimed at mitigating power quality issues and ensuring compliance with standards such as IEEE 519. The role of bidirectional converters in integrating renewable energy sources and stabilizing distribution networks is also discussed, particularly under high EV penetration scenarios.

कौटिल्य के सप्ताङ्ग सिद्धान्त में 'योगक्षेम': सुशासन, सम्प्रभुता और लोक-कल्याण का एक आलोचनात्मक विश्लेषण
type: item
description: कौटिल्य का अर्थशास्त्र प्राचीन भारतीय राज्यशास्त्र का एक ऐसा कालजयी ग्रंथ है, जो समकालीन राजनीतिक चिंतन और सुशासन (Good Governance) के सिद्धांतों को आज भी नई दिशा प्रदान करता है। प्रस्तुत अध्ययन कौटिल्य के 'सप्ताङ्ग सिद्धान्त' का पुनर्पाठ करते हुए यह प्रतिपादित करता है कि राज्य के सातों अङ्ग (स्वामी, अमात्य, जनपद, दुर्ग, कोश, दण्ड, मित्र) केवल यांत्रिक प्रशासनिक इकाइयाँ नहीं हैं, बल्कि उनका एकमात्र दार्शनिक और व्यावहारिक औचित्य प्रजा के 'योगक्षेम' (अप्राप्त संसाधनों का अर्जन और प्राप्त संसाधनों का संरक्षण व न्यायपूर्ण वितरण) को सिद्ध करना है। यह आलेख कौटिल्य के यथार्थवाद की तुलना पाश्चात्य यथार्थवादी परंपरा से करते हुए एंटोनियो ग्राम्शी, मिशेल फूको, मैक्स वेबर, कार्ल श्मिट, थॉमस हॉब्स, अरस्तू और जॉन रॉल्स जैसे आधुनिक राजनीतिक विचारकों के साथ एक आलोचनात्मक संवाद स्थापित करता है। यह विश्लेषण सिद्ध करता है कि कौटिल्य का शासन-मॉडल शुष्क शक्ति-राजनीति और अव्यावहारिक आदर्शवाद के परे 'नैतिक यथार्थवाद' (Normative Realism) पर आधारित लोक-कल्याणकारी राज्य का एक कालजयी और वैश्विक विकल्प प्रस्तुत करता है।

Urban Expansion and LULC Change in Shahbad City (2000–2020)
type: item
description: Urban expansion is one of the most significant spatial processes impacting land-use structure, environment and the socio-economic nature of developing towns. The present study aims at analyzing the dynamics, spatial distribution, influencing factors and impacts of urban growth in Shahbad City in 2000-2020. The changes occurring in major Land Use/Land Cover categories (built up area, agricultural land, open and fallow land, vegetated cover and green cover, and water bodies) were analyzed by remote sensing data and satellite imagery, and Geographic Information System techniques. The analysis indicates that the urban area has been expanding continuously from the core towards the north, south, east and west. Urban growth occurred along the major transport arteries, in small or leapfrog fashion on the urban fringe, within existing settlements and through intensification of the central area. The built-up area increased substantially from 64 in 2000 to 132 in 2010 and 218 in 2020. Agricultural land on the other hand decreased from 272 to 204 hectares and then to 148 hectares over the same timeframe. The green cover and vegetation area also reduced from 54 in 2000 to 34 in 2020 and open land and fallow land reduced to 68 in 2020 from 54 in 2000. The key factors of this change were found to be population growth, rural to urban migration, improved transportation, economic diversification, institutional development, and rising land values and real-estate activities. The results show that the rapid and somewhat unplanned urban development has put pressure on agricultural land, the green spaces, the drainage systems and public facilities. The study highlights the importance of GIS based monitoring, small urban development, efficient zoning, preservation of green spaces and water bodies and the integration of urban planning in order to find sustainable growth in the future of Shahbad City.

Understanding Public Opinion in the Digital Age: The Influence of Social Media in District Sirmaur, Himachal Pradesh
type: item
description: Social media has transformed public opinion formation by enabling citizens to receive, interpret, produce, and circulate information at unprecedented speed. This paper examines the perceived influence of social media on public opinion in District Sirmaur, Himachal Pradesh, with attention to a predominantly rural and geographically dispersed setting. A cross-sectional survey design is proposed and demonstrated using an illustrative dataset of 400 adult social-media users selected through stratified multistage sampling across rural, semi-urban, and urban localities. The model links social-media exposure, active engagement, perceived information credibility, misinformation concern, and digital literacy with perceived opinion influence and civic participation. Descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, correlations, multiple regression, and rural-urban mean comparisons are presented. The illustrative results indicate that WhatsApp is the most widely used platform, followed by YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. Social-media exposure, active engagement, and perceived credibility show positive relationships with opinion influence, while misinformation concern is negatively associated with it. Digital literacy has a smaller but significant positive contribution and appears to strengthen critical evaluation. Opinion influence is also positively associated with civic participation. Rural respondents report lower exposure and digital literacy than urban and semi-urban respondents, but slightly higher concern about misinformation. The paper argues that social media in Sirmaur functions simultaneously as an information bridge, a participatory space, and a risk environment. It recommends district-level media-literacy programmes, multilingual and locally relevant communication, transparent public-information channels, and verification practices tailored to mobile-first users.

Domestic Violence Against Women: A Critical Study Of The Effectiveness Of Legal Protection
type: item
description: Domestic violence against women is a widespread issue of human rights violation, and a major barrier to gender equality in India. The legal framework has changed a great deal since the first constitutional guarantees and through statutory laws and judicial decisions, but there is a lingering concern about how well it is implemented. This paper critically discusses the legal safeguards related to domestic violence against women with special reference to Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. The study employs a doctrinal research approach, examining the constitutional provisions, pertinent legislation, significant judicial rulings and international human rights instruments to determine the effectiveness of the current legal framework. The paper concludes that the Act has significantly expanded the notion of domestic violence by not only acknowledging physical, emotional, verbal, sexual and economic abuse, but also providing extensive civil remedies, including protection orders, rights to residence, monetary damages, custody and compensation. The realization of these legal opportunities is, however, hindered by ongoing problems such as underreporting, patriarchal social norms, lack of institutional support, low number of Protection Officers, judicial delays and lack of awareness of the law by the victims. The study concludes that India's legal framework is comprehensive and progressive, but it needs to be effectively implemented, institutionalized, coordinated and socialized for its success. Effective implementation mechanisms and socio-economic empowerment of women are crucial for meaningful access to justice and building on the constitutional mandate of equality, dignity and a life free from domestic violence.

From Colonial Game to National Glory: Postcolonial Triumph in Sports Biopic 83
type: item
description: Kabir Khan’s 83 (2021) uses the real-life story of India’s 1983 Cricket World Cup victory to narrate a powerful postcolonial assertion of national identity. Cricket, which was once a colonial game introduced by the British to keep cultural dominance, 83 become a symbolic space of reversal and resistance. The movie places cricket at the centre of India's struggle for dignity, solidarity, and recognition among the world's leading nations in the aftermath of colonialism. 83, therefore, through the dramatisation of Kapil Dev's captaincy and the 1983 squad, turns cricket into a source of power, where the colonised have the authority to revise the old story of oppression to one of confidence and triumph. The film recreated the historic event in such a way that it presented both factual and emotional aspects, thus demonstrating not only the sportsmanlike side of the matter but also emphasising the cultural context of the event. The film, through its visuals, patriotism, and team spirit, suggests that the 1983 win was not merely a sporting event but rather a statement of decolonisation and the former colony's return to power over the metropolis.

Understanding Socio-Cultural Barriers to Women's Retirement Preparedness in India: An Integrated Conceptual Framework
type: item
description: Labor force participation, the changing family and the increasing life expectancy have created an important socio-economic issue on women's retirement preparedness. Nonetheless, women face socio-cultural challenges to adequately prepare for retirement, especially in the developing world like India. However, previous studies have largely concentrated on financial and demographic factors and the combined effect of socio-cultural factors has not been sufficiently investigated. This paper fills this gap by creating an integrated conceptual framework that throws light on how the socio-cultural barriers affect women's retirement preparedness in the Indian context. The framework is based upon the Gender Role Theory and the Life-Cycle Hypothesis, which help to identify the main barriers such as traditional gender roles, responsibilities as a caregiver, gender differences in employment and earnings, gender financial illiteracy, and institutional constraints. The paper presents research propositions that will help future empirical research and brings together the scattered evidence into a whole conceptual framework, thereby advancing the literature. The proposed framework also provides practical guidance for policy makers, financial institutions, employers, and financial educators in developing gender-sensitive solutions to enhance women's retirement readiness and long-term financial security.

The Impact of Educational Technology on Academic Achievement: A Review of Recent Studies
type: item
description: Educational technology drives innovation in teaching and learning, affecting students' academic performance at all levels. Digital tools like learning management systems, virtual classrooms, educational applications, multimedia resources, artificial intelligence, adaptive learning platforms, and collaborative online environments have made traditional instruction more interactive and learner-centered. summarizes recent empirical studies on educational technology's effects on students' academic performance, engagement, motivation, and learning. Effective instructional technology improves conceptual understanding, critical thinking, cooperation, self-directed learning, and information retention by delivering tailored instruction, quick feedback, and flexible learning materials. When used with good pedagogy, adaptive learning systems, gamification, learning analytics, and AI-supported educational platforms improve student accomplishment. The assessment also notes unequal access to digital infrastructure, inadequate teacher preparation, excessive screen time, digital diversions, cybersecurity risks, and the need for responsible technology use. Educational technology may boost academic performance, but instructional design, teacher ability, learner preparation, and institutional support are also important. Educational technology should assist effective instruction, not replace it. Strategic investments in digital infrastructure, professional development, inclusive educational policy, and evidence-based technology integration maximize learning results and prepare students for 21st-century digital competences.
