Copyright form
Authors will be asked to transfer copyright of the article to the Publisher (or grant the Publisher exclusive publication and dissemination rights). This will ensure the widest possible protection and dissemination of information under copyright laws.
Proof reading
The purpose of the proof is to check for typesetting or conversion errors and the completeness and accuracy of the text, tables and figures. Substantial changes in content, e.g., new results, corrected values, title and authorship, are not allowed without the approval of the Editor. After online publication, further changes can only be made in the form of an Erratum, which will be hyperlinked to the article.
Ethical Guidelines for the author
• Authors should adhere to publication requirements that submitted work is original and has not been published elsewhere in any language. Work should not be submitted concurrently to more than one publication unless the editors have agreed to co-publication. If articles are co-published this fact should be made clear to readers.
• Copyright material (e.g. tables, figures or extensive quotations) should be reproduced only with appropriate permission and acknowledgement.
• Relevant previous work and publications, both by other researchers and the authors’ own, should be properly acknowledged and referenced.
• Data, text, figures or ideas originated by other researchers should be properly acknowledged and should not be presented as if they were the authors’ own
• All sources of research funding, including direct and indirect financial support, supply of equipment or materials, and other support (such as specialist statistical or writing assistance) should be disclosed.
• Authors should disclose the role of the research funder(s) or sponsor (if any) in the research design, execution, analysis, interpretation and reporting
• The research literature serves as a record not only of what has been discovered but also of who made the discovery. The authorship of research publications should therefore accurately reflect individuals’ contributions to the work and its reporting.
• In cases where major contributors are listed as authors while those who made less substantial, or purely technical, contributions to the research or to the publication are listed in an acknowledgement section, the criteria for authorship and acknowledgement should be agreed at the start of the project.
• Researchers should ensure that only those individuals who meet authorship criteria (i.e. made a substantial contribution to the work) are rewarded with authorship and that deserving authors are not omitted. Institutions and journal editors should encourage practices that prevent guest, gift, and ghost authorship.
• All authors should agree to be listed and should approve the submitted and accepted versions of the publication. Any change to the author list should be approved by all authors including any who have been removed from the list. The corresponding author should act as a point of contact between the editor and the other authors and should keep co-authors informed and involve them in major decisions about the publication (e.g. responding to reviewers’ comments).
• Authors should work with the editor or publisher to correct their work promptly if errors or omissions are discovered after publication.
• Authors should abide by relevant conventions, requirements, and regulations to make materials, reagents, software or datasets available to other researchers who request them. Researchers, institutions, and funders should have clear policies for handling such requests. Authors must also follow relevant journal standards. While proper acknowledgement is expected, researchers should not demand authorship as a condition for sharing materials.
• Authors should follow publishers’ requirements that work is not submitted to more than one publication for consideration at the same time.
• Authors should inform the editor if they withdraw their work from review, or choose not to respond to reviewer comments after receiving a conditional acceptance.
• Authors should respond to reviewers’ comments in a professional and timely manner.
• Appropriate approval, licensing or registration should be obtained before the research begins and details should be provided in the report (e.g. Institutional Review Board, Research Ethics Committee approval, national licensing authorities for the use of animals).
• If requested by editors, authors should supply evidence that reported research received the appropriate approval and was carried out ethically (e.g. copies of approvals, licences, participant consent forms).
• Researchers should not generally publish or share identifiable individual data collected in the course of research without specific consent from the individual (or their representative). Researchers should remember that many scholarly journals are now freely available on the internet, and should therefore be mindful of the risk of causing danger or upset to unintended readers (e.g. research participants or their families who recognise themselves from case studies, descriptions, images or pedigrees).
• The appropriate statistical analyses should be determined at the start of the study and a data analysis plan for the prespecified outcomes should be prepared and followed.
• Researchers should publish all meaningful research results that might contribute to understanding. In particular, there is an ethical responsibility to publish the findings of all clinical trials. The publication of unsuccessful studies or experiments that reject a hypothesis may help prevent others from wasting time and resources on similar projects. If findings from small studies and those that fail to reach statistically significant results can be combined to produce more useful information (e.g. by meta-analysis) then such findings should be published.
• Authors should supply research protocols to journal editors if requested (e.g. for clinical trials) so that reviewers and editors can compare the research report to the protocol to check that it was carried out as planned and that no relevant details have been omitted. Researchers should follow relevant requirements for clinical trial registration and should include the trial registration number in all publications arising from the trial.

When mango crop is separated from its parent plant, it begins to deteriorate or ripening becomes fast because mango is a climacteric fruit, i.e., fruit in which a sudden rise in rate of respiration occurs during ripening after harvesting. The most important goals of post-harvest management practices are keeping the product cool, to avoid moisture stress and slow down ripening and undesirable physio-chemical changes, proper grading/sorting, packaging, and avoiding physical damage such as bruising and rupturing of fruit. The unscientific post-harvest handling will result in increased post-harvest loss. Thus, post-harvest management practices are important in minimizing losses, spoilage and cost in transportation earning more profit from processed products and to raise the economic status of the mango growers of Haryana. The present study, Yamunanagar district of Haryana state was selected purposively The objectives of the present study were socio economic status, knowledge, adoption and the constraints in adoption of post-harvest management practices by mango growers. Only Langra, Dasheri and Chausa varieties of mango were adopted. There was no adoption of other recommended varieties. More than half (55.84%) of the farmers fully adopted the artificial method of ripening with calcium carbide. Majority of the respondents adopted semi-ripe stage of fruit, corrugated fiber boxes, shreds of paper as cushioning material and horizontal position of fruits while packaging. Pages: 76-79

Pages: 72-75 Sneh Bansal (Chandigarh College of Education, Mohali, Punjab) Educational Provisions for children with disabilities varies from region to region and from country to country. Although there is widespread support for inclusion at a philosophical level, there are concerns that it is difficult to implement for a number of reasons, including that schools do not know how to do it. For Inclusion to work effectively, there is a need to expand and develop the capacity of schools to respond to diversity among children and to move away from traditional practices to innovative approaches of teaching and learning. Regular classroom teachers and special teachers need to be equipped with more comprehensive knowledge and skills required to cater special educational needs of students with a wider spectrum of disability. The study highlighted on building capacity and enabling the existing institutions already working with children to enhance their competence in handling disabled and non-disabled children in regular schools by using whole school approach to promote education of children with special needs in inclusive setting. In a developing country like India with huge resource crunch, the approach/ strategy implemented in the study has tremendous scope for promoting 'Social Inclusion' in the true sense. Pages: 72-75

College of Home Science, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar, Haryana) The Handloom sector is the second largest employer in India providing employment in tune of 65 lakh persons. The sector represents the continuity of the old age Indian heritage of hand weaving and reflects the socio-cultural tradition of the living communities. There are number of government scheme that provide assistance for this sector in new five-year plans. Self-help groups of women in India have been recognised as an effective strategy for capacity building of rural as well as urban women. Training is a major catalytic Force for argument in human productivity in all states of development. Proper training in Handloom weaving and value addition is needed to take up as an entrepreneurial activity for SHG's. Present study was conducted in Dhangar and Bhingar villages in Fatehabad district of Haryana state. Intervention on handloom weaving was given to twenty-fiveSHG women of each village for 45 days by Weaver Service Centre, Panipat. Five products namely durrie, khes, towel, bed sheet and foot mat were prepared duringthe training period. All respondents (100%) had low knowledge regarding towel weaving followed by bed sheet weaving (92.00%) and durrie weaving (40.00%). For reinforcement and practice adda and raw materials were provided to each centre. Technical know-how was also provided through literature. After completion of intervention, majority of the respondents (52.0%), and 44.0 percent succeeded in gaining high level knowledge in durrie, khes and foot mat weaving. Skill acquisition was found in high category regarding durrie weaving (84%) and stool mat weaving (72.0%). Training impact in terms of knowledge gain, attitudinal change and skill acquisition was found 49.77 percent regarding handloom weaving. Adoption feasibility index was found 82.28 percent on five attributes. Major constraints in adoption of handloom weaving as an entrepreneurial venture perceived by SHGs during training were 'non-co-operation” of SHG members (88.0%) in using resources, “less time allotment” for work on adda (80.0%) and“within group conflicts” reported by 72.0 percent. Self-help group effectiveness index was found 54.45 percent on different traits of SHGs, which speaks of a moderate level functioning. Pages: 67-71

Pages: 64-66 Ruchi Payal (National Institute of Education Planning and Administration (NIEPA), Delhi) This article is analyzing the importance of the availability of adequate resources in the education sector. The New Education Policy in order to tackle problems of multiple- grade teaching, single teacher teaching all the subjects, inadequate resources, problem of governance and management, lack of proper attention, has offered 'School Complexes'. The aim was to make a cluster of one secondary school with all the other grades that are within the radii of five to ten miles, so that they can function as a whole, utilizing each-others resources. It will not require physical relocation of schools but an administrative integration, with each school as a semi-autonomous unit. Although the idea emerged in the Kothari Commission report and experimented with these complexes in various states. The article critically analyzes the results of the earlier school complexes, and what more the New Education Policy offers in the school's complexes than the earlier policies, possible challenges that might come while realizing it and also the scopes of the changes it is capable to bring in rural India.

Director (Farm Management), ADT/SNIATTE, CCS HAU, Hisar, Haryana) Bimla Dhanda (Department of Human Development and Family Studies (HDFS), CCS HAU, Hisar, Haryana) Fluid intelligence refers to abilities those are innate and independent of prior education or experience. Fluid intelligence has been defined as the ability to think logically and solve problems in novel situations, independent of acquired knowledge. The fluid intelligence is general ability to think abstractly, reason, identifying patterns, solving problems and discerns relationships. The present study was conducted in four districts namely; Hisar Fatehabad, Rohtak and Jind of Haryana state with the purpose of availability of maximum numbers of twins in the required age group. A sample of 296 pairs of twins in the age group for the study. Fluid intelligence was taken as dependent variable and socio-economic variable was taken as independent variable. Fluid intelligence was measured with the help of Cattle Culture Fair Intelligence Test (Scale-I and II developed by (Cattell & Cattell, 1959). Scheduled was developed to assess the socio-economic variable of twins. Result revealed that fluid intelligence of twins was significantly associated with father's education (2=10.26*), mother's occupation (2=19.29*) and father's occupation (2=10.44*) of twins but non significantly associated with age (2=0.73), gender (2=1.78), family type (2=1.07) family size (2=8.15), caste (2=8.04), mother's education (2=6.49), family income (2=4.58), and number of sibling (2=3.37).

Ravindranath (Senior Specialist & Program Director (Retd.) and Academic Director, Agastya International Foundation, Bangalore) Vanditha Ravindranath (Finance Professional, Bangalore) The literature on environment and ecology is replete with articles and essays on human onslaught on environment and the resulting consequences. It is getting more and more glaring that if we do not change our mindsets and lifestyles then the consequent catastrophes cannot be contained. We need to work for a sustainable future by developing in the present and future generations newer vision, perspectives, practices and work culture. Our commitment for a sustainable future should be firmly anchored with a robust education system enabling young minds to develop knowledge and skills to protect, preserve and promote a healthy environment and safety. Green skills leading to green careers and green economy is the call of the present. This paper attempts to present how skilling India with green skills will help her cope with economic slowdown and unemployment without jeopardizing nation's natural environment and resources. More specifically, it focuses on how Green Skills can help protect, preserve and promote India's natural environment with increased productivity. Education, impregnated with Green skills is the only hope to conserve the environment. Imparting Green skills should begin right from the school level. The paper finds its relevance at a time when India is working on a National Education Policy -2019 (NEP, 2019). Pages: 56-59

Pages: 46-48 Mahak and Vinod Kumari (Pt. BD Sharma PGIMS, Rohtak, Haryana and Department of Sociology, CCS HAU, Hisar, Haryana) Aging is a natural phenomenon and is associated with several changes in physical and mental strength along with social changes in the life of a person. With the advancement of age, the elderly people face several health problems due to biological changes in the body. The present paper review health and social problems of aged people under the changing social system. Results of studies point that the elderly suffers from multiple morbidities, which they often attribute to ageing. The social problems faced by elderly are neglect, discrimination, deprivation and sometime violence by family members; social isolation, loneliness and depression due to changing family structures- joint to nuclear family system, migration of young people to cities for better employment opportunities and lack of interest among new generation regarding family values; and lack of resources and support system for aged people. There is urgent need to make efforts to ensure respectful and healthy life of elderly people by providing emotional support from family and society. Social structure should accounts for the needs of the aged as well as their mental health; family members should spend time with them or keep communicating with them through telephone in case they are living away; family members should respect the elderly people, ask them for advices and discuss with them family history and traditions; spread awareness about human rights of elderly people and expansion of call centres and health services to cater specifically to the needs of aged people .

A list of adolescents was prepared from rural and urban area i.e. 100 from rural area and 100 from urban area thus making a total sample of 200 adolescents. The sample represents equal number of boys and girls ranging in 16-18 years of age group. Academic resilience scale by Mallick and Kaur (2015) was used to assess academic resilience and mental health inventory by Jagdish and Shrivastva (1983) to assess mental health of respondents. The finding elucidates that irrespective of area of residence male respondents had higher academic resilience than their counterparts. The results further highlighted that urban respondents had better mental health than rural respondents. With regards to gender results depicts that male respondents had better mental health than female respondents. The reason may be that due to high academic resilience in male respondents they have the better mental health. Further results revealed significant differences for both academic resilience and mental health . Pages: 28-34
