Counter-Narrative as a Powerful Narrative Technique for the Voice of the Voiceless in The Palace of Illusions
Authors: Dr. Ancy Elezabath John  
Published: June 2023

India is a land of myth and legends. Indian epics are archives of our history and precedent culture which depicts what happened in the times of yore. They tell us about the events and developments that shaped our culture. Epics dole out as a testimony of our culture. Many Indian writers craft their plot from epics of Hindu mythology which is used as a literary device. Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni uses Hindu mythology in her works broadly to instill audacity in her woman protagonists. She tries to demonstrate how myths steer women to surmount their conflicts in life. Her novels explicate how myths instruct humanity to lead a virtuous life. Draupadi, the heroine of The Mahabharata is presented through a fictional perspective in Divakaruni’s novel The Palace of Illusions, (2008). It is a retelling of The Mahabharata, from the perspective of Draupadi. She breaks the stereotype of a conventional heroine in Indian literature. Counter-narration is a method of telling the stories of those people whose experiences are not often misrepresented or untold. It is also a tool for uncovering, examining, and stimulating mainstream historical texts. The author uses counter-narrative techniques in the novel to counter the position of women in The Mahabharata era addressing the prejudice, difficulties, and the male dominance that they had experienced. A descriptive analysis enumerates upon the author’s use of the counter-narrative technique in the novel through a detailed description of plot, settings, and characterization. Divakaruni midst of suffering has overcome the predicaments she faced challenging the old age convention that women must accept tradition and society without questioning. Draupadi could endeavour the subversion where most women would have given up. Narrative technique is the art of narrating a story in a literary work by using various techniques. The narrative technique is vastly an aesthetic enterprise. The feature of the narrative includes characters with clear personalities or identities and integrated dialogues. Through Draupadi’s life author dispels outdated notions about what it means to be a woman. The author explores the ancient and personal experiences of Draupadi, as distinct from the original Mahabharata. Draupadi ends up being the most nuanced and divisive female character in Hindu literature. Draupadi is an archetypal representation of the pain and humiliation a woman experiences in a patriarchal society. The lives of women have not changed over time, whether it is the ancient or the modern era. There are still challenges to overcome the situations that call for specific actions. The novel The Palace of Illusions demonstrates the hardships a princess-born woman had to endure.
The Intersection of Traditional Wisdom and Modern Education: Unpacking the Potential of Folk Pedagogy in the Context of India’s National Education Policy 2020
Authors: Ashutosh K Prabhakar  
Published: June 2023

This article explores the critical interface of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the potential of folk pedagogy in enhancing India’s educational landscape. The NEP 2020, with its emphasis on local, indigenous knowledge systems and a transformative vision for India’s education system, provides an unprecedented opportunity for mainstreaming folk pedagogy into contemporary teaching-learning practices. Approved by the Union Cabinet in 2020 National Education Policy ushered in avant-garde reforms to the education policy of India. Folk pedagogy, a term used to describe traditional modes of education practiced by various indigenous and local communities, carries immense value in terms of cultural preservation, community engagement, and learner-centric methodologies. It promotes experiential learning, critical thinking, and creativity by organically integrating local culture, resources, and traditional wisdom into education. Its salient features and key recommendations exceptionally call for flexibility, multi-disciplinarity, critical thinking and ethical values, multilingualism and the three-language formula. An exceptional emphasis on the power of language and the inclusion of mother/regional under the larger context of Indian ethos has been witnessed for the time. NEP 2020 with such emphasis ushers a pedagogical paradigm shift that seeks to reestablish lost Indian pedagogical heritages and their folk orientation, where education is experiential, diverse, holistic, creative, critical, multidisciplinary and multilingual. By intertwining the principles of NEP 2020 with the rich, culturally diverse practices of folk pedagogy, the article envisages a dynamic, inclusive, and effective education system. It underscores the significant role folk pedagogy can play in achieving NEP’s objectives of creating an equitable and vibrant knowledge society by leveraging local knowledge systems and fostering a deep sense of respect towards the rich cultural heritage of India. The article critically reviews the extent to which NEP 2020 allows for the incorporation of folk pedagogy in its framework, and analyzes how this can be made more effective. It addresses challenges and potential strategies for incorporating folk pedagogy into the mainstream educational practices and curriculum development. The article argues for an extensive dialogue and collaboration among educators, policymakers, and community stakeholders to facilitate this integration, ultimately nurturing a pedagogical system that is grounded in the culture, context, and aspirations of learners. This strategic amalgamation could empower India’s education system to meet the future challenges of the rapidly evolving global knowledge economy, while staying true to its unique cultural roots.

Published: June 2023

Removable dentures are a treatment option for replacing missing teeth. Use digital technologies in manufacturing of removable dental prosthesis is recent with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM). Additive or subtractive methods can be used for the fabrication of removable dentures. This review includes articles from the last 5 years on the use of CAD-CAM for manufacture of removable prostheses. The most frequent failures of the conventional system in the manufacture of removable dental prosthesis should avoid with digital workflow in clinical procedures, fabrication methods and materials used. Intraoral scans for removable dentures have been a lack of accuracy and difficulties in capturing soft tissues because. Manufacturing of removable dental prostheses with CAD-CAM has proven properties clinically acceptable, with milled, three-dimensional printer or laser‐sintered methods. CAD-CAM-milled and rapid-prototyped of removable denture are similar in terms of biocompatibility and surface roughness. This technology allows exploring the use of new materials such as polyetheretherketone for manufacture of frameworks for removable prostheses. Digital scanning, three-dimensional printing or milled method is more efficient and more comfortable, allowing advantages in terms of time and cost of prosthesis with predictable results. New studies are needed to show the benefits of CAD-CAM technology in removable dental prosthesis.

Authors: Marzuki Abdul Aziz , Nor Nik Norliati Fitri Md , Rashid Siti Masayu Rosliah Abdul , Ghazali Suriati 
Published: June 2023

Purpose: Positive developments in the socioeconomic field have led to a reduction in mortality and fertility rates and an increase in the lifespan of individuals. This has reduced the young population and increased the old population. Senior citizens are being neglected, and loneliness is getting worse every day because of these circumstances. Therefore, in order to address the problem, there is a pressing urgency to identify how to provide support to older adults so that they can continue their daily lives easily without any problems or obstacles that can limit their activities. Social support refers to support in terms of emotions, friends, information, care, and management.
Design/Methodology/Approach: A total of 397 questionnaire forms were distributed by purposive sampling to older adults aged 60 years and above in the Perak state and analyzed using descriptive statistical tests to obtain frequency, mean, and percentages for Social Science (SPSS) software.
Findings: The results of the study showed that the older adults majorly agreed with the form of social support which was provided by the community. However, based on the social support, older adults are more likely to feel accompanied by neighbours, friends, or individuals. The study discovered that older persons prefer to be to be actively involved in the society, since this also enables them to deal with severe difficulties, circumstances, and fears. This preference is demonstrated by the total degree of social assistance provided and the daily activities of the older adults.
Conclusion: The availability of social support indirectly contributes to the well-being of older adults by addressing the neglect and loneliness they may face, enabling them to maintain active and fulfilling lives. It promotes active aging by fostering social connections, enhancing mental and emotional health, and empowering older individuals to participate fully in society.
Contribution to Literature Review: Social support, encompassing community support, emotional support, peer support, and information support, contributes significantly to the well-being of older adults. These forms of support help address the issues of neglect and loneliness faced by older adults, enabling them to actively age and lead fulfilling lives. The literature highlights the importance of social support systems in promoting the well-being of older adults and emphasizes the need for comprehensive support from various parties to meet the growing needs of the aging population. The literature on social support for older adults has important policy implications for promoting their well-being and addressing the challenges they face such as strengthening community support systems and encouraging peer support programs.

Published: June 2023

Ранний послеоперационный период после хирургического бариатрического вмешательства, подобно тяжелому течению диабета 2 типа, сопровождается резким снижением запасов гликогена в печени о образованию кетонов.
При резком снижении массы тела за счет липолиза значительно увеличивается содержание жирных кислот в плазме, соответственно увеличивается их воздействие на печень [1]. Это приводит к увеличению синтеза триглицеридов, а также к дальнейшему окислению жирных кислот с образованием кетонов. В результате концентрация кетонов может значительно возрасти. Патологическая кетонемия (ацетонемия) значительно возрастает при дальнейшем нарушении баланса, когда скорость синтеза кетоновых тел превышает скорость их утилизации периферическими тканями организма [2].
Мы описали это осложнение как «послеоперационный бариатрический ацетонемический синдром» (ПБАС) с клиническими и лабораторными данными.

Elemental Mercury Removal from Natural Gas Using Nano-Tio2
Authors: Mandor Mohamed 
Published: June 2023

The study focused on the utilization of titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a photo-catalyst for the treatment of natural gas contaminated with elemental mercury (Hg0). The catalyst was carefully characterized using various physical techniques, including transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) , and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The results clearly demonstrated that TiO2 exhibited outstanding efficacy in oxidizing Hg0 when exposed to UV light. This phenomenon was ascribed to the excitation of photoelectrons within the valence band, leading to their transfer to the conduction band, generating photo-induced electrons that acted as reactive agents responsible for converting Hg0 into HgO. Notably, the activity of TiO2 under UV-visible light was significantly lower compared to TiO2 under UV light. The overall findings indicated that TiO2 under UV light exhibited the highest removal capacity, measured at 31.74 µg/g, followed by TiO2 under UV-visible light at 25.91 µg/g, and TiO2 in the dark at 20.89 µg/g. The study underscores the promising potential of TiO2 photo-catalyst for effectively eliminating Hg0 contamination in natural gas.
National food safety depends on the modernization and mechanization of agriculture

Since independence, Algeria's economy has relied on the hydrocarbons sector, which represents 98% of the population. This has caused all economic indicators and national policies, whether development or related to the state budget, to be anchored directly to the figures for the export of gas and oil. Algeria has been unable, for more than half a century, to establish a diversified and affluent economy, in light of the dominance of the container economy, which is not immune from external crises and the requirements of the international market. Algeria is distinguished from the countries of the Mediterranean basin by its vast area, the diversity of its climate and environmental systems, and its unique geographical structure. This has made its space characterized by four climatic systems, from the Mediterranean in the north to the coastal climate in the far south. Climate diversity is logically related to the diversity of resources, ecosystems and agricultural products throughout the year. These natural advantages also allowed some products to be impersonated twice a year.
All scientific experiments and economic approaches have reached the inevitable conclusion that we must modernize the agricultural sector through modernizing its structures, modernizing its production factors, and, in particular, introducing modern technology into all stages of the agricultural production process in its various divisions and specializations, and in various climatic regions.

On 6 Sep 2012, a medical officer from Bumthang Hospital notified the Royal Center for Disease Control, Ministry of Health in Thimphu, Bhutan, of an outbreak of gastroenteritis among students following an annual sports-event. We investigated this outbreak to verify the diagnosis, identify risk factors, and recommend control measures. A case control study was used to assess risk factors and determine the cause of the outbreak. We identified 202 cases among 587 participants, giving an overall attack rate of 34.4%. Cases were three times (odds ratio = 2.9, 95% CI = 1.89-4.31) more likely to have eaten beef curry and were also twice (odds ratio = 2.1, 95% CI = 1.39-3.14) as likely to have drunk pond water than controls. Four of 32 stool samples were positive for Campylobacter jejuni, and one was positive for Shigella sonnei. This was the first gastroenteritis outbreak related to a sport event in Bhutan possibly caused by Campylobacter jejuni that was associated with the consumption of beef curry.
