 Abstract

Honor killings often justified by cultural or social norms, disproportionately affect women and marginalized groups, leading to widespread impunity for perpetrators. It represent a deeply entrenched cultural practice that tragically intersects with issue of gender, power and violence. It is defined as the murder of individuals -predominantly women- by the family members who perceive that the victim has brought dishonor upon the family, these acts are often rooted in patriarchal traditions and societal expectations. This article examines honor murders as breaches of international human rights law and outlines a variety of tactics that might be taken to achieve international responsibility for honor killings. It focuses on the positive responsibilities placed on nations by international human rights treaties, namely the right to life and the prohibition of discrimination. These rights were selected because they are disproportionately impacted by honor murders and reflect diverse perspectives on human rights abuses. It is maintained that honor murders are no longer only crimes to be prosecuted under local law, but also breaches of international human rights law.

It is widely known that food plays a pivotal role in people's physical health. Research has found that nutrients directly impact organ efficiency and chemical reactions in our bodies. If someone is deficient in nutrients, it may reduce organ efficiency and gradually result in the production of biochemical reactions that affect immunity pathways. Additionally, food can have negative effects on mental health, leading to stress and depression, and can also impact economic well-being (Andrew B..al 2023) Food have good impact on body but processed food item and sugar pauses negative impact on human health .

 Abstract

Ulcers are a major complication of diabetes, often resulting in chronic wounds that are difficult to heal and susceptible to infection, potentially leading to debilitation or even death. As much as Diabetic foot ulcers are a common complication, so are carbuncles. Carbuncles also known as Bullosis diabeticorum (BD) bursts open to lead to ulcer formation in any part of body. Due to the complex nature of the condition, a combined approach using both Ayurveda and conventional medical treatments can offer better outcomes. This report discusses three cases of diabetic ulcers located on the various parts of body. After performing thorough wound debridement, treatment was administered based on the Ayurvedic principles of Vrana Chikitsa, alongside infection control. Regular wound care and monitoring was carried out. The ulcers showed steady improvement, with reduced slough and smooth healing observed in all cases. Complete wound closure was achieved within six weeks, without recurrence reported during a one-month follow-up period. This integrative treatment approach appears to promote faster healing in chronic, non-healing diabetic ulcers.

 Abstract

This paper explores the historical significance, principles, and contemporary relevance of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) in the current multipolar geopolitical landscape. Despite facing numerous challenges, including criticism for losing its influence post-Cold War, the NAM continues to play a vital role in addressing global inequalities, promoting multilateralism, and advocating for the interests of developing nations. Through a comprehensive analysis of NAM's evolution and its role in global governance, the paper concludes that NAM's relevance remains strong, especially in fostering international cooperation and addressing emerging global challenges like climate change and economic inequality.

 Abstract

Honor killings remain a critical issue in India, where family honor, caste-based norms, and patriarchal structures play a crucial role in influencing the social order. Khap Panchayats, traditional self-governing councils, have been central to enforcing these rigid socio-cultural codes, particularly in rural areas. This research paper examines the role of Khap Panchayats in perpetuating honor killings and their intersection with legal frameworks. The paper offers a comprehensive socio-legal analysis of how Khap Panchayats uphold a culture of honor, the legal battles to counter their influence, and the sociological impact on marginalized groups, especially women and young couples.

It's a part of our drive as human fostering resilience, sparking joy, and providing opportunities for self-actualization. An act of creativity can be grand and inspiring, such as crafting a beautiful painting or designing an innovative class. But an idea need not be artistic or world-changing to count as creative. Life requires daily acts of ingenuity and novel workarounds; in this sense, almost everyone possesses some amount of creativity. Children who express unusual thoughts, who are interesting and stimulating in short. children who appear to unusually bright. Children who experience the world in novel and original ways. These are (personally creative) children whose perceptions are fresh, whose evaluation are insightful, who may make important discoveries that only they know about. Individuals who have change their culture in some important way. Because their achievements are by define by public, it is easier to write about them. (e.g., Leonardo, Edison, Picasso, Einstein, etc.) (pages 25-26)The Systems Model of Creativity: (pages 27-28)the creative domain, which is nested in culture - the symbolic knowledge shred by a particular society or by humanity as a whole (e.g., visual arts)the field, which includes all the gatekeepers of the domain (e.g., art critics, art teachers, curators of museums, etc.the individual person, who using the symbols of the given domain (such as music, engineering, business, mathematics) has a new idea or sees a new pattern, and when this novelty is selected by the appropriate field for inclusion into the relevant domain Creativity is any act, idea, or product that changes an existing domain, or that transforms an existing domain into a new one...What counts is whether the novelty he or she produces is accepted for inclusion in the domain."

Abstract This paper examines the evolution of daughters' rights as coparceners in Hindu law, particularly following the enactment of the Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, 2005. Historically, the coparcenary system excluded daughters from inheritance rights, relegating them to mere members of the Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) without equal claim to ancestral property. The 2005 Amendment marked a significant legal reform by granting daughters coparcenary rights, thus positioning them on par with sons in terms of property ownership and management. Judicial interpretations, particularly in landmark cases such as Vineeta Sharma v. Rakesh Sharma, have further clarified and reinforced these rights, emphasizing the retroactive application of the amendment. However, cultural and societal barriers, along with legal complexities, continue to hinder the effective realization of these rights. The paper discusses ongoing litigation and offers suggestions for enhancing awareness among legal practitioners and the public to promote gender equality in property rights. Ultimately, the paper reflects on the importance of both legal reforms and societal change in achieving true equality for women in the context of Hindu inheritance law.
