The results show that at the all India level total rape victims continuously increased at the rate of 6.60 per cent during the study period and the major proportion of rape victims belong to 19-30 years of age group which states that young women have most often more danger of rape than older women. To overcome these problems there is a dire need for sustained pressure on governments to strictly implement the judicial and legislative reforms along with harsh punishment to accused so that people afraid to do such crimes.<#LINE#> @ @ W.H.O, World Report on Violence and Health, W.H.O Publications, 89-90, (2002) @No $ @ @ Kapadia-Kundu, et al., Whose Mistake?

Very short, straight yet creative messages are conveyed to the target audience with a messenger. To convey any message women are used irrespective of the fact that they are the part of the product or utility. However, the stereotyped notions still get reflected even in the modern societies especially with respect to women. This paper analyses the select cases of Indian commercials with the content analysis from gender sensitivity perspective. It is an attempt of qualitative analysis along with the recent debates and reactions from the institutional perspective. <#LINE#> @ @ Chunawalla S.A. and Sethia K.C., Foundations of Advertising: Theory and Practice, Himalaya Pub.

In Ancient Indian society status of women is some extent satisfactory. In recent years the role of women has undergone some drastic changes due to globalization and commercialism.

The constructivist teaching is learner centred where students are actively involved in knowledge construction rather than mere passive listeners. Constructivists’ views can be organized in two forms: psychological and social. In Psychological constructivists’ view such as Piaget, students construct knowledge by transforming, organizing, reorganizing previous knowledge whereas in social constructivists’ view such as Vygotsky, opportunities are provided to students to learn through social interaction in construction of knowledge and understanding. The paper is an attempt to examine constructivist teaching and learning by providing indepth analysis of features of constructivist theory and its two forms (psychological and social) and the organization of a constructivist classroom. <#LINE#> @ @ Enonbun O., Constructivism and Web 2.0 in the Emerging Era: A Global perspective.

Whatever be the culture and religion, humans have sensed a natural power greater than themselves. Hinduism is one such religion with no one founder and known date of origin.Hinduismembraces a great diversity of beliefs, a fact that can be initially confusing.One can believe a large variety of things regarding God, the cosmos and the ways to get free from cycle of birth and rebirth and still be considered as Hindu. Similarly Hindu practices are of different hues and manifestations. In this paper we are trying to incorporate the rationale behind all those religious practices. The logic cannot be supported with scientific beliefs but there was and has been some reason behind our Hindu practices as to why we perform them and in that particular fashion alone. <#LINE#> @ @ www.religionfacts.com accessed online on Saturday, September 14, 2013, 11:25:12 AM (2013) @No $ @ @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion accessed online on Saturday, September 14, 2013, 10:56:26 AM (2013) @No $ @ @ Park C., Religion and geography, Chapter 17 in Hinnells, J.

The sculptures of the ancient temples of Khajuraho represent the subtle warmth of classical Indian modeling. Large numbers of female figures were included in the sculptural strategy of the medieval temples of India. In Khajuraho sculptures, the women are sculpted from all the worlds. Here women appear in various themes. Ideals of feminine beauty in myriad forms and features are depicted in the temple. The sculptor of Khajuraho has tried to work out very carefully on every part of the woman’s body from physical penance to divine pleasure. No doubt, we find their sculptural representation adorned with exquisite jewellery and beautiful dress, making them look very beautiful by accentuating their forms. The Khajuraho women with sculptured body, rounded hips and clinging serpentine grace of limbs the feminine ideal gives impression of a spiritual divine beauty. <#LINE#> @ @ Michael Rabe, Essay ‘Sexual Imagery on Phantasmagorical Castles at Khajuraho, International Journal of Tantric Studies (1996) @No $ @ @ Smith V.A., Khajuraho Unveiled, Greenage Books, Australia, 156 (2011) @No $ @ @ Devangana Desai, social dimensions of art in early India, Social scientist, 18(3), 19 (1990) @No $ @ @ Shilpi Saini, The representation of women in the erotic sculptures of Khajuraho(2012) @No $ @ @ Varadpande, Manohar Laxman, Woman in Indian Sculpture, Abhinav Publications, New Delhi, 86 (2006) @No $ @ @ @No <#LINE#>Ceasefire Violation – Pakistan's Transgression on the line of Control, A Situation growing more Serious<#LINE#>ZahoorAhmad@Rather,Deepika@Gupta<#LINE#>38-44<#LINE#>9.ISCA-IRJSS-2013-211.pdf<#LINE#>Department of Political Science, Vikram University, Ujjain, MP, 456010, INDIA<#LINE#>23/12/2013<#LINE#>2/1/2014<#LINE#> The root cause of instability, terrorism and hostility in South Asia stems from the unresolved nature of the Kashmir dispute between two rival countries, India and Pakistan. The Composite Dialogue Process date back to May 1997, when at Male, the capital of Maldives, the then Indian Prime Minister Inder Kumar Gujral and his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif mooted the idea of a structured dialogue or the Composite Dialogue Process (CDP). Based on cooperation, the peace process enabled the two countries (India and Pakistan) to discuss all contention issues particularly Jammu and Kashmir. The Ceasefire of 2003 held for so long that the current intensity and frequency of its violation along the Line of Control can only be equated with the fire and spark of Operation Parakram. Neither of the Directors – General of Military Operations has broached the need for restoring peace and tranquility as agreed by Prime Ministers Manmohan Singh and Nawaz Sharif at the New York Summit. Who will bell the cat? Pehle aap. Now, it is expected that DGMOs of India and Pakistan will meet at the Wagah border on December 24 to discuss ways to ensure ceasefire on the Line of Control. The new India-Pakistan move for peace and tranquility along the LoC requires much sunshine diplomacy from both the civil and military officials of the two sides<#LINE#> @ @ Yusus Moeed and Najam Adil., Kashmir: ripe for resolution?, Third World Quarterly, 30(8), 1503-1528,(2009) http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/0143659090332186 @No $ @ @ Rajagopalan Kavita, India–Pakistan: new role for forgotten monitors?

Moral behaviour is the act that is valued by an observer as right or good which effectively results in a common good. The concept of morality and moral behaviour has been pondered upon by various philosophers and psychologists and there are numerous views and theories on the nature of morality. However a moral action is said to be so in terms of its reference with its desirability in the society or to the significant other. Various researchers have found that there is an inverse relation between criminality and morality. Accordingly the rate of increase of criminality in the world population is a direct indicator of the decline of morality. In the Indian context too the alarming increase of the crime rates and incidents of harm towards individuals signals to the fact that moral orientation in the Indian population is facing a notable shift that needs to be viewed seriously. The present study in its co-relational review form delineates the crime rates in India in the context of Morality. <#LINE#> @ @ Exploring Moral Reasoning in a Cognitive Architecture, Wayne Iba, Westmont College, 955 La Paz Road Santa Barbara, CA 93108; Pat Langley, 2010, Westmont College, 955 La Paz Road Santa Barbara, CA 93108 (2010) @No $ @ @ Campagna A. and Harter S., Moral judgment in sociopathic and normal children, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 31, 199-205 (1975) @No $ @ @ Beirne P., Inventing criminology, State University of New York Press (1993) @No $ @ @ Palucka, Anna Malgorzata, Relationships of moral judgement, emotional empathy and impulsivity to criminal behaviour in young and adult offenders, National Library of Canada, University of Toronto (1997) @No $ @ @ Addad M. and Leslau A., Extraversion, neuroticism, immoral judgment and criminal behaviour, Med Law, 8(6), 611-22 (1989) @No $ @ @ Emma J.
