In the sphere of drama, the name of Vijay Tendulkar does not require any introduction. In the galaxy of Indo-Anglo playwrights, Tendulkar is one of the most shining stars. Marathi Theatre is incomplete without the contribution made by Vijay Tendulkar. This Marathi literary figure is a multifaceted personality. He is the one who brought revolution in Marathi Theatre. An avant-garde playwright, Tendulkar has shown versatility by writing several works including one-act plays, children’s plays, short stories, essay collections etc. Vijay Tendulkar is the mouthpiece of the oppressed women in male dominant society. He has deep insight into human nature. He has proved in his plays that it is the male dominant society that does not allow woman to rise from the status of man’s foot. They are exploited, tortured, taunted both physically and emotionally. They are considered inferior to male human beings as male human beings are victims of their superiority complex. Even in some of the societies they are treated as bane while the male child is hailed as boon. His plays depict that women are treated as mere commodities. He has shown how the voice of women is suppressed when they try to voice their concerns against the cruelties. He makes a psychological study of human characters in his plays. An analytical approach to his plays reveals that women are deprived of the life they wish to live. The present research paper focuses on his four plays, to bring to light the enslaved and exploited position of women in society. In ‘Sakharam Binder’ and ‘Kamala’ he brings to light how women are enslaved and exploited. In ‘Silence! The Court is in Session’ and ‘Kanaydaan’ he ascertains the fact that it is male human being who is responsible for the exploitation of women. Key Words: Exploitation, violence, enslaved, torture boon, bane etc.

The Government of India published, after independence, nation’s third policy on education on July 30, 2020. This policy on education titled as “National Education Policy- 2020” (NEP-2020). This much anticipated education policy is a widespread policy covering all level and aspects of education of the country. Part ‘Two’ of NEP- 2020 covered the area of higher education and detailed about the expectations in this area. For an economically developing country like India, where the demand for a quality skilled workforce is very high it becomes necessary to keep a check on the quality of education provided in the higher education system. Assessment plays a crucial role in improving the quality of education by giving feedback. Normally assessment is done as objectives of education are formulated. Any teaching-learning process is incomplete without a proper assessment mechanism. National Education Policy- 2020 is expecting and suggesting fundamental change in the traditional assessment system in higher education. This paper is an attempt to explore the important recommendations made by National Education Policy- 2020 on ‘Assessment’ in the area of higher education. Keywords: Assessment mechanism, Higher education, National Education Policy- 2020.

Traditionally, teachers used to determine the learning of the students, they only decide about the knowledge and skills that need to be taught to the students but there has been a paradigm shift with the advent of new digital mediums. Now learning has evolved into a learning-centered, self-directed, social, peer-to-peer, inquiry-based and cooperative approach to education. ICT revolutionized learning for students and teachers. It has provided immense opportunities from connecting with people, accessing information, to availability of volumes of open educational resources. Education has transformed from pedagogy to new approaches like open pedagogy, self-education i.e., Peeragogy. No doubt these approaches will prove to be sustainable with the global health crises going on. Thus, this paper aims to recognize secondary school teachers’ technological acceptability and to investigate their preparation for Peeragogy and Open pedagogy. Data was collected through a Google form from 96 secondary school teachers from 22 Indian schools, and descriptive statistics were used to examine the results. The findings revealed that the secondary school teachers are quite enthusiastic about integrating technology in education and employing peeragogy and open pedagogy in their classrooms. This study on secondary school teachers’ attitudes towards technology, their readiness for Peeragogy and Open pedagogy, and the problems they experience is expected to offer educators with relevant information for future research. Keywords: open pedagogy, peeragogy, ICT, education

In a narrow concept of learning we associate it with formal mode of imparting education at school, college & university etc. But in comprehensive view learning is a lifelong process which starts right from birth and ends with death. It is a continuous process. Child is told, from an early age, that he should get good formal education for his better adjustment and survival in the society. Education opens the way to maximize our potential to find better, more satisfying jobs, earn more and, perhaps, become more successful in our chosen career. However in a broader view ‘schooling’ is only one type of learning. There are many other ways and opportunities to enhance our knowledge and develop the skills & creativity we need throughout life. Undoubtedly, Education plays an important role in Development of a society. A developed society always need its citizens well knowledged, skilled and with a professional attitude for smooth running of same. Educational institutions train young generations by channelizing their energy in various directions and fields and turning them a valuable human resources for the society and nation. But irony is that this kind of education limits them to a particular area of earning money and other aspects of life are ignored. Innovations and creativity aspects of learning get missing which is much needed for development of self and society. Lifelong learning is about creating and maintaining a positive attitude to learning both for personal and professional development. This paper is an attempt to throw light on different ways to create and promote an environment of lifelong learning in institutions resulting developing professional communities………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Key words: Life Long Learning, creativity, professional community

Agricultural technology advancements are continuously taking place in India, as the progress of agricultural sector directly impacts a major proportion of population and its living condition. Farmers are interested to adopt new inventions and technologies in agriculture. Modern agricultural practices are significantly affecting human health and environment. The release of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are adversely affecting biodiversity and increasing air, water and soil pollution. Agricultural residue management, use of pesticides and insecticides, inorganic manure, chemical fertilizers leads to harmful effect on human health and increasing environmental pollution. Recent agriculture trends emphasizes on enhancing agricultural production in terms of quantity in less time, overlooking its adverse affects. In this paper we have analyzed the negative effects of modern agricultural practices on human health and environment. It leads to decline in soil fertility, loss of biodiversity, climate change, air, water and soil pollution, environmental degradation etc. Our farmers are now adopting modern agricultural techniques, using chemical fertilizers, pesticides, insecticides, expanding irrigation facilities, using high yielding varieties of seeds, modern machines, varying crop sequences etc. But these efforts of expanding food supply in less time is taking place at the cost of human health and environment degradation. Spray of harmful chemicals on crops not only pollutes underground water and air but also bad for human and animal health. Non harmonious, unwise and unsustainable agricultural practices have a considerable impact on environment and also harmful for living beings. Key Words: Environment, Modern Agricultural Practices, degradation, unsustainable, techniques.

Medicine, and healthcare have been related in one way or another in all population groups since the beginning of recorded history. Only in recent times have these systems of healing been separated. One of the challenges physicians face is to help people find meaning and acceptance in the midst of suffering and chronic illness. Spirituality is the person’s inner truth or blissful experience. For many, spirituality takes the form of religious observance, prayer, meditation or a belief in a higher power. For others, it can be found in nature, music, art or a secular community. Spirituality is different for everyone. Through spiritual pursuit, a person tries to connect with a supreme divine or what most people call almighty God. Such people resort to techniques like silence, prayer, meditation and yoga mostly as individual or collective practice, usually under the directions of a spiritual Guru. Others believe in the self-less service to the mankind as a major pathway for seeking god. They adore ‘goodness’ to see God. Key Words: Spiritual Power, Human Health

GENDER CONCEPT & ROLES FOR DEVELOPMENT

The paper examines the concept of gender and sex, the difference between gender and sex & explain the terms gender dynamics. Gender is a social construct that impacts attitudes, roles, responsibilities and behavior patterns of boys and girls, men and women in all societies. Increasing attention has been given to the importance of achieving gender equality in education. To date, however, most efforts have focused on addressing gender parity - an equal number or proportion of girls and boys accessing educational opportunities. Although simple gender parity may be easier to measure, gender equality encompasses a wider concept, of which gender parity is only a part. Gender equality moves beyond access and requires that girls and boys also experience the same levels of quality and outcomes of education. One of the key impediments to achieving gender equality in education is that it cannot be addressed in a vacuum; rather, educational institutions are products of the inequalities that exist in larger society. Keywords: Gender, Sex, Equality, Development.

74th Amendment is recognised as an important legislation. It has initiated mechanism to empower municipal bodies in the country. Its history, need and significance need to be understood properly. Elaborate state control on the functioning of these bodies affected their growth for a long time. The financial dependence on the state government did not allow them to take decisions. However, the enactment of the 74th Amendment has sought to bring about lot of changes. Its implementation in Maharashtra needs to be monitored and assessed from time to time. The lacunae at various levels need to be identified and addressed. The people need to come forward and participate in the functioning of the local bodies. The response of the state of Maharashtra has so far been very encouraging.

The present conceptual research paper focused on the study is to discuss the teaching and learning practices inside the walls of prisons. Prison work is demanding. It involves working with men and women who have been deprived of their liberty, many of whom are likely to be mentally disturbed, suffer from addictions, have poor social and educational skills and come from marginalized groups in society. Some will be a threat to the public; some will be dangerous and aggressive; others will try very hard to escape. None of them wants to be in prison. Therefore, it requires great skill and personal integrity to carry out this work in a professional manner. This means, first, that men and women who are to work in prisons need to be carefully chosen to make sure that they have the appropriate personal qualities and educational background. Then they need to be given proper training in the principles that should underlie their work and the human and technical skills that are required. Throughout their careers, they should be given opportunity to develop and expand these skills and to keep up to date with the latest thinking on prison issues. Further, prison staff generally work in an enclosed and isolated environment, which, over time, can make them narrow and inflexible. The way they are trained and managed needs to be designed to guard against this insularity. The staff also needs to remain sensitive to changes in the wider society from which their prisoners come and to which they will return. The present paper with prime objectives are (i) To understand the teaching and learning practices inside the walls of prisons. (ii) To analyses the role of prisons in the learning practices. (iii) To discuss the importance of education for enhancing the prison’s role in the society. The methodology of the research is a different type involving an interpretative, conversation, observation and study secondary sources, like books, articles, journals, thesis, university news, expert opinion, and websites, etc. Key Words: Teaching and Learning Practices, Walls of Prisons

In this research paper an attempt has been made to focus on Lala Lajpat Rai as nationalist. Lala Lajpat Rai as a Nationalist Stood not only for national cohesion and development but was also the advocate of justice and equality for all the sections of society. As he said, “We are a friend neither of the land lord not of the capitalist, we believe that the working men in India as elsewhere are being exploited and robbed by the higher classes in possession of he means of production and distribution. We would whole heartedly support any scheme which would open a way to a just and righteous distribution of wealth and land in India and which would ensure the ryot and the working man his right place in body politic”. Lala Lajpat Rai showed a remarkable consciousness of the wider social forces operating in the wide world in his eyes. In his outlook on life he seemed to have combined the realization of the need for social change and modernity in harmony with continuity and a modicum of stability for the progress of the country. For Lala Lajpat Rai, the synthesis between resilience and feasibility according to changing compulsions of the political chessboard with the long term objectives and the fundamental principle, was an essential part of political strategy.

Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi was born in 1207 A.D. and died in 1273A.D. From 1219 A.D. till
the death of Rumi the entire period was full of battles, killings of innocent people, destruction and
plundering of cities. The reason behind was battle of crusade and invasion of Mongols over the Islamic
empire. These two battles had left tremendous effects on the political conditions of the Islamic empire.
The battle of crusade had weakened the Islamic empire however, the continuous invasion of Mongols
which, culminated in the sack of Baghdad and assassination of Caliph Al-Mustasim Billah had not only
weakened the Islamic Empire but the Islamic empire came to an end with the sack of Baghdad in 1258
A.D. If all these factors are considered we shall come to the conclusion that as the Masnavi-e Manvi of
Rumi was written while the invasion of Mongols on the Islamic empire was completed and their rule

over Islamic empire was established therefore, the reflection of political is clearly seen on the Masnavi-
e Manvi of Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi.

It is shameful for the whole Indian continent that even after 75 years of independence we have not been able to erase the curse of untouchability from our society. There are scores of laws against untouchability but in practice they have never been implemented honestly. It also a fact that Dalits still are savagely attacked in the rural countryside and even in the urban milieu, untouchability still knocks at the closed doors of such institutions as the arranged marriages, the caste Hindu temple, the private sector, etc. The cultural hegemony of the caste Hindus arises from the myths and mythological heroes and it has remained virtually intact till today. The physical reality of the Dalits which is a result of the cultural hegemony of the caste Hindus and thus the Dalits remains at the bottom of the intellectual and emotional landscape of contemporary India. Mohan Parmar has presented the physical reality of the Dalits through his collection of one-act plays Bahishkar. In this research paper the researcher has analyzed how the playwright has inverted the upper caste myths and mythology to present the social landscape of contemporary India in which Dalits are still suffering.
