Authors: - Smriti Pandey
Published: August 2024

“Using technology to encourage productivity and long-term competitive advantage is known as digitalization. All agree that accountability, openness, and people are the cornerstones of corporate governance. How has the digital revolution affected corporate governance, specifically with regard to the potential impact of big data and artificial intelligence on it?

This assertion is bolstered by the identification of five key factors that influence the current power dynamics within corporate organizations: (i) decision-making speed and frequency; (ii) decision-making information and access; (iii) decision-making costs.(iv) the decision-makers’ incentives and interests; and (v) their proficiency and abilities. The crucial, but as of yet unstudied, analytical method to precisely forecast the influence of technology on corporate governance is to consider if and how these five aspects are changed by technological innovation.

Our research aims to investigate how corporate governance is affected by digitization. In addition, to determine the connected causes and hazards and to see if the benefits exceed the consequences.

The social groups such as friends, family, institution and peers influences sustainable food consumption. The prices of substitute product will also affect consumption of sustainable foods. This is because consumers will prefer a substitute product especially if it has a lesser price. The principles of sustainable development consist of economic, societal, and environmental considerations. Economic systems and social structures shape social impacts on health, which are embedded in the broader environment and affect the distribution of energy resources worldwide. Environmental sustainability is a long-term result of socio-economic development. A study was conducted to determine the food consumption pattern in a rural area and urban area The major objective was to investigate the influence of socio economic factors on food consumption patterns in the rural area. A random sample of 166 households was interviewed through a pre-designed questionnaire inquiring about household size, rate and level of education, total monthly income, and expenditure on various food commodities consumed. An ordinary least squares method was employed to analyze the data. The results indicated that an average household size of 8.5 persons with a literacy rate of 94 percent, spent fifty-five percent per month of the total monthly income on food consumption. The empirical results revealed that wheat flour, milk, rice, vegetables, sugar, edible fats and tea were positively correlated with household size but meat, pulses, eggs and fruit were not significantly influenced by it. Similarly, household’s monthly total income showed a positive relationship with the food commodities consumed, except wheat flour, vegetables and eggs. It may be concluded that majority of food commodities consumed had a positive response to household size and total monthly income. Therefore, it is imperative for policy makers to plan to improve food availability and to increase family income to enhance quality of rural life. The growing global population has given an ardent need to focus specially on sustainability issues arising from food consumption. The Socio-economic domain dwells on food affordability while emphasizing the social acceptability of foods. Results reveal a significant relationship between product price, income and education, social groups and substitutes on food consumption. Findings were discussed and conclusions drawn thereof.

One of the most widely used aluminum alloys for automotive, marine, and aerospace applications is AA 6063, a precipitation-hardened alloy that mostly consists of silicon and magnesium. Friction stir welding is a cost-effective and adaptable solid state joining method for aluminum alloys as compared to traditional welding. Through impacting elements including defect formation, material fusion, residual stresses, and microstructure, a weld's quality directly impacts its strength. To achieve the best possible weld strength and performance, it is crucial to ensure high-quality welds through appropriate welding methods, parameter control, and quality assurance systems. Three crucial process variables that affect weld quality are traverse speed, rotation speed, and tool profile. In order to guarantee the design and development of flawless welded joints, these characteristics are optimized. The goal of this study is to comprehend the AA 6063 alloy friction stir welding method and how Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is used to optimize the input parameters. It also intends to evaluate the mechanical properties of the friction-welded alloy and the base alloy by performing micro tensile and micro hardness tests. The micro tension test is used to determine the weld's ultimate strength. The results indicate that the most important value of tensile strength, 131.66 N/mm2, corresponds to 1000 rpm spindle speed, 20 mm/min table feed, and friction stir welded tool profile TTH (Tapered Threaded). Additionally, the average micro hardness values on the heat-affected zone, stir-zone, and thermo mechanically-affected zone were 84.5, 86, and 88.5 VH, respectively. This work also uses optical microscopy and X-ray radiography to examine the weld quality

The Evolution of Right to Property-Exploring Pre and Post Constitutional Status
Authors: - M. Meenakshi
Published: August 2024

Property rights have been a foundational aspect of societal organization and economic development throughout history. This article aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the nuanced journey that the right to property has undertaken in India, traversing through various epochs, socio-political climates, and legislative changes. Commencing with the pre-colonial era, the research navigates through the rich tapestry of ancient Indian legal systems, where property rights held a central position in the social order and were often influenced by cultural and religious norms. With the onset of colonial rule, the dynamics of property rights underwent significant transformations. The British administration introduced new concepts and property laws that aimed to reconfigure the established property relations to suit their economic interests and administrative convenience.
The post-independence period witnessed substantial debates and deliberations over the nature and scope of property rights. The Constitution of India, enshrining the fundamental rights of its citizens, initially recognized the right to property as a fundamental right under Article 19(1)(f) and Article 31. However, the evolution of this right took a pivotal turn with the insertion of the 44th Amendment in 1978, which shifted the right to property from a fundamental right to a legal right, thereby empowering the state to undertake land reform measures and redistribution of property. Through an intricate examination of significant legal cases, constitutional amendments, legislative enactments, and scholarly discourse, this project dissects the multifaceted dimensions of the right to property. It delves into the dichotomy between individual rights and societal interests, highlighting instances where property rights have clashed with developmental imperatives, land reforms, and the goal of achieving socio-economic equity. Furthermore, the research investigates the impact of property rights on economic growth, social justice, and the intricate interplay between property ownership and access to resources. It probes the question of whether property rights have fostered economic advancement or resulted in unjust concentration of wealth. In summation, this article aims to construct a comprehensive historical narrative of the right to property in India, unravelling its transformation from ancient civilizations to colonial rule and finally to the contemporary legal frameworks. By engaging with the intricacies of property rights, the project seeks to shed light on the trajectory of legal thought, policy changes, and socio-economic implications, thereby contributing to a nuanced understanding of the right to property within the broader context of India's legal history.

Hole enlargement in shale formations poses significant challenges in the drilling industry, particularly in maintaining wellbore stability and preventing operational delays. This study focuses on addressing these challenges through the application of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) analysis in well HES-003, located in the North West Java region of Indonesia. By employing XRD and CEC analysis, we aim to identify the mineralogical composition of the shale and understand its impact on hole enlargement. The study reveals that certain clay minerals within the shale are prone to swelling and dispersion when exposed to drilling fluids, leading to hole instability. By correlating mineralogical data with drilling performance, we develop a targeted approach to mitigate hole enlargement. The findings underscore the importance of tailoring drilling fluid compositions to the specific mineralogy of the formation, ultimately enhancing wellbore stability and reducing non-productive time. This case study demonstrates the effectiveness of XRD and CEC analysis in diagnosing and solving drilling problems in shale formations, providing a valuable reference for future drilling operations in similar geological settings.

In recent years, fostering entrepreneurship has become a topic of the highest priority in public policy throughout most industrial countries. But for our country, where education system is designed in such a way as to create more of jobseekers than job creators, it was not dominating phenomena for decades.
The strategic intention of governments to train students on how to bring out the entrepreneurship prospects right from university so that after leaving school, they could start up their own ventures rather than wait for paid employment. The rationale for entrepreneurial skills was to equip students with the ability needed to create jobs, become self-reliant and be able to retain the skills being acquired. This will increase students’ desire to learn and retain various skills, generate
potentials to explore both their individual business capabilities and venture into other business ventures as so desires.
For the same, educational institutions could play a positive role in motivating the students to venture into self-employment. The role of quality entrepreneurship education and training, in identifying and nurturing this entrepreneurial potential among youth is becoming apparent to students, policy makers, and educators. Now, there is an increasing trend and growing interest for becoming entrepreneurs among younger generation.
The problem with Indian educational system is that students are not taught in a way that enhances entrepreneurial thinking and the assessment procedures do not reward entrepreneurship. This is a serious challenge to our educational system for decades.

Antimicrobial agents are among the most commonly used and misused of all drugs. The inevitable consequence of the widespread use of antimicrobial agents has been the emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, feeling an ever-increasing need for new drugs. The Cephalosporin antibiotics are useful and frequently prescribed antimicrobial agents that share a common structure and mechanism of action ¾ inhibition of synthesis of the bacterial peptidoglycan cell wall. The β-lactams also include the cephalosporin antibiotics. Cephalosporium acremonium, the first source of the cephalosporins, was isolated in 1948 by Brotzu from the sea near a sewer outlet off the Sardinian coast. by determining the Quality assurance parameters during manufacturing, which influence the dissolution behavior of the drug hence its bioavailability. The formulation and evaluation done after the survey of literature, it shows the better result rather than first and second class of cephalosporin as chewable tablets.
