Key components in concrete are cement and aggregate, are crucial, but their continual extraction poses a threat to the environment, leading to a potential ecological imbalance. Consequently, current trends in concrete technology focus on exploring sustainable alternatives to reduce dependence on natural resources and mitigate environmental degradation. This study aimed to produce concrete using rice husk ash and coconut shell as partial replacement materials for cement and coarse aggregate, respectively. The mix ratio is 1:2:4 (cement: fine aggregate: coarse aggregate) for grade 20. Rice husk ash replaced 10% and 20% of cement, while coconut shell replaced 5% and 10% of coarse aggregate by weight. Samples were tested for workability, water absorption, and compressive strength. According to the slump test, every sample exhibits collapse and a true slump meanwhile in  water absorption showed less than 8% according to standard value. The control sample showed good compressive strength (>20 N/mm²), while among the modified samples, the concrete mixture with 10% rice husk ash and 5% coconut shell achieved the highest compressive strength at 15 N/mm² after 28 days.

Published: December 2024

—Email communication plays a vital role in modern society, facilitating both personal and professional interactions. However, ensuring the security and
confidentiality of sensitive information exchanged via email remains a significant concern. This project presents the development and implementation of an email filter utilizing the ChaCha20 encryption algorithm. ChaCha20 is a symmetric stream cipher algorithm designed by Daniel J. Bernstein. It's often used in encryption protocols and applications, particularly in the context of securing internet traffic. It's known for its speed and security, and it's part of the TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocol suite, among other applications. ChaCha20 operates on 64-byte blocks and uses a key size of 256 bits. It's considered to be quite secure and has seen widespread adoption in various security-sensitive applications. Before encryption can occur, a cryptographic key needs to be generated. For ChaCha20, a secure random key is typically generated. The
key should be kept secret and shared only between the sender and the intended recipient(s). For maximum security, ChaCha20 encryption in email is often
implemented as part of an end-to-end encryption scheme. This means that the content of the email is encrypted on the sender's device and can only be decrypted by the intended recipient, with no intermediary (including email service providers) having access to the plaintext. Overall, ChaCha20 plays a crucial role in ensuring the confidentiality of email communication by encrypting the content of messages, thereby protecting it from unauthorized access or interception.
The Indian National Congress: Evolution from a Nationalist Movement to a Contemporary Political Power in Post-Independence India
Authors: - Prachi Nagar , - Nirmala Singh
Published: December 2024

The Indian National Congress (INC) has experienced an extraordinary journey, evolving from a nationalist movement driving India’s freedom struggle to a key political force in modern India. Founded in 1885, the INC united people across diverse backgrounds and played a vital role in ending colonial rule. Post-independence, the party took charge of building a new nation, shaping India’s democratic institutions, and launching significant socio-economic reforms that laid the groundwork for industrial and agricultural development.
Over time, however, the INC faced challenges. While it dominated Indian politics in the early years, internal conflicts, the rise of regional parties, and alternative political ideologies started eroding its influence. In recent decades, the party’s declining electoral performance has been linked to leadership challenges, corruption allegations, and its struggle to connect with a rapidly changing electorate. Despite these setbacks, the INC remains a significant player in Indian politics, drawing strength from its historic legacy and commitment to ideals like secularism, inclusivity, and democracy.
This paper captures the INC’s ability to adapt to India’s shifting socio-political landscape, showcasing its pivotal role in shaping the nation’s past and its continued relevance in contemporary politics.

Authors: - Siham Belmaati Cherkaoui , - Zineb El Azime , - Amine Essafi , - Hayat Aynaou , - Houda Salhi , - S. Wahbi
Published: December 2024

Background: Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is an uncommon condition that may arise as a consequence of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). It is typically observed in the context of pituitary adenoma. The condition may manifest with symptoms of intracranial hypertension, namely, headaches of a "helmet-like" character, visual acuity decline, and vertigo. This case report describes a rare occurrence of pituitary apoplexy in a patient diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).
Aim: Despite the rarity of this pathological coexistence, it highlights the potential link between immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and the emergence of pituitary apoplexy (PA).
Case description: A 34-year-old male patient with no previous medical history, referred to the hospital with hemorrhagic symptoms, including epistaxis and gingivorrhagia. Lab tests revealed a severe thrombocytopenia of 1,000 elements/mm³. Etiological investigation set up a diagnosis of ITP, and platelet transfusion along as intravenous immunoglobulin therapy were initiated. Subsequently, the patient presented to the emergency department with ptosis, diplopia, a sudden decline of visual acuity, and headaches. Cerebral imaging showed a pituitary adenoma with signs of hemorrhage and compression of the optic chiasm. A conservative management approach was therefore adopted and the clinical course was characterized by the involution of the ischemic adenomatous material, development of an empty Sella turcica, persistence of the other pituitary hormones deficiency and the resolution of the polyuria-polydipsia syndrome. Platelet counts returned to normal following the initiation of treatment.
Result: The patient was satisfied after the improvement of ophthalmological symptoms and the resolution of thrombocytopenia after treatment.
Conclusion: We presented a rare emergence of ITP with severe thrombocytopenia complicated by apoplexy of a pituitary macroadenoma. This case highlights the critical importance of considering pituitary apoplexy in the differential diagnosis when evaluating patients with ITP.

Published: December 2024

Let G be a connected simple graph. A subset S of V(G) is a dominating set of G if for every v ∈ V(G)∖S, there exists x∈S such that xv ∈ E(G). An identifying code S of a graph G is a dominating set S⊆V(G) such that for every v ∈ V(G), N_G [v]∩S is distinct. An identifying code of a graph G is an identifying restrained dominating set if every vertex not in S is adjacent to a vertex in S and to a vertex in V(G)∖S. Alternately, an identifying code of a graph S⊆V(G) is an identifying restrained dominating set if N[S]=V(G) and 〈V(G)∖S〉 is a subgraph without isolated vertices. The minimum cardinality of an identifying restrained dominating set of G, denoted by γ_r^ID (G), is called the identifying restrained domination number of G. In this paper, we initiate the study of the concept and give the domination number of some special graphs. Further, we show the characterization of the identifying restrained dominating set in the join of two nontrivial connected graphs.

The growth of Indonesia's telecommunications sector, driven by 5G expansion and the digital economy, is key to the country's digital transformation. Effective HR management is essential for attracting skilled employees to support innovation in this industry. Employee engagement, encompassing physical, cognitive, and emotional involvement, is a critical measure of connection to the organization, while a strong employer brand enhances loyalty and retention. However, job burnout, which undermines performance, can reduce retention and increase turnover intentions, posing challenges for long term sustainability
This study aims to examine the role of employee engagement as a mediator in the relationship between employer branding and talent retention, with job burnout acting as a moderator within the company. The data for this research were obtained through a survey questionnaire administered to a sample of 192 employees. The research adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Partial Least Squares (PLS) methods, analyzed using SmartPLS 3.0 software. The variables investigated in this study include employer branding (EB), employee engagement (EE), talent retention (TR), and job burnout (JB).
The results of the study reveal that employer branding has a positive and significant impact on both employee engagement and talent retention. Employee engagement also demonstrates a positive and significant effect on talent retention. Furthermore, employee engagement positively and significantly mediates the influence of employer branding on talent retention. However, job burnout has a negative and significant moderating effect on the relationship between employee engagement and talent retention. The study suggests that company should prioritize addressing job burnout as a critical factor that may affect talent retention.

A Comparative Analysis of Different Countries with The Indian Legal System for Legal Protection of Seafarers
Authors: - Dr. Kratika Gupta
Published: December 2024

An estimated 90% of global trade is transported by sea or river, which necessitates the use of seafarers to run the ships. As a result, seafarers are critical to international trade and the international economic system. It should be noted that maritime transport was the first globalized industry.
The International Labour Organisation (ILO) has approved over 70 instruments (41 Conventions and associated Recommendations) at special marine sessions of the International Labour Conference to protect the world's seafarers and their contribution to international trade. The International Labour Organization's international standards for this sector establish the minimum conditions for "decent work" and address almost all aspects of work, including minimum requirements for work on a ship (such as minimum age, medical fitness, and training), provisions on working conditions, such as hours of work and rest, wages, leave, repatriation, accommodation, recreational facilities, food and catering, occupational safety and health protection, welfare and social security protection, and so on. They also address pensions and a globally recognized document for mariners (a seafarers' identity document) to help with border control.
Humane treatment of seafarers has long been an issue that has evolved alongside the growth of seafaring. Their classification as a distinct group of marine workers stemmed from the unique nature of their employment on board the ship.
Because of the vastness of the sea, they were cut off from the protection of a legal system that would ordinarily end or change at every territorial State's border. In the face of legal difficulties and ambiguities, the seafarer's human rights and welfare become vulnerable. The present study aimed to assess the human rights protection of seafarers and focused on a comparative analysis with the Indian legal system for the legal protection of seafarers.

TWICE COLONIZED: FEMALE ORIENTALISM AND ORIENTAL FEMALES
Authors: - Dr. Joy Jacob
Published: December 2024

Patriarchal oppression coupled with Orientalist manipulation of native women fore grounded the postcolonial feminist notion of double colonization and gave it theoretical credence. Ever since the beginning of human existence, patriarchal order has greatly impacted on almost everything in the world. Patriarchy is also a part of colonization and imperialism. Women had to fight the double colonization of patriarchal domination in its local as well as its imperial forms. Double colonization’ refers to how women have simultaneously experienced the oppression of colonialism and patriarchy. Women are subject to representation in colonial discourses in ways that collude with patriarchal values. One of the most dominant concepts in postcolonial feminism is ‘Double Colonization’. It represents a key concept within Postcolonial Feminist discourse, positing that women in colonized and pre-colonized territories confront a dual subjugation wherein they are compelled to adhere to patriarchal norms within their local communities while simultaneously conforming to the dictates of colonial rulers. Thus, women contend with the imposition of both patriarchal and colonial structures, resulting in what is termed as double colonization.
