The central objective of current research is to compare and contrast the level or intensity of financial inclusion in different provinces of India. For the purpose of the study, all India has been classified into six provinces such as, northern states, north eastern areas, eastern areas, central area which include Madhya Pradesh, western states, and southern province. The base of the study was secondary data related to the numerous variables which shows the level of financial inclusion. All the data has been extracted from the official website RBI which is called banker's bank. Mainly two major parameters have been considered in the study for evaluation of the intensity of the financial inclusion. These parameters or variables are namely; Access of financial services and the level of Usage of financial services. Here, the access has been evaluated in terms of, number of bank offices and the employees of the banks, while the usage has been evaluated in terms of, number of credit accounts or loan accounts and deposit accounts in the banks. Further, a financial inclusion index was developed by researchers in terms of credit and deposit accounts per bank office and per bank employee in a particular region. The study exposed that in India financial inclusion is highest in southern province and lowest in north eastern province.

In this study fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) seeds of variety HM-57 were dried in solar regenerated desiccant seed dryer. In this dryer, seeds can be dried in deep bed at a safe temperature for good shelf-life, germination and vigour index. The dryer has following significance over common methods of drying, generally vegetable seeds are dried in shade, which has very low drying rate and can be harmful to the seeds. Under natural drying conditions, micro organisms may develop, as moisture takes longer to be removed. Also in natural drying seeds holds moisture for longer period than advisable, due to this there is acceleration in respiration rate which causes a CO2 release and water vapour and causes a significant decrease in physiological quality of seeds. The dryer has two chambers i.e. air conditioning chamber and seed drying chamber. It operates in seed drying and desiccant regeneration mode. Moisture removal from drying air has been done using silica gel desiccant. Fenugreek were dried with hot and dehumidified air at five different drying air temperatures i.e. 38, 40, 42, 44 and 46o C and at five different air flow rates i.e., 1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 m3/min.. Germination percentage of fenugreek seeds varied from 78 - 67% as temperature varied between 38-46o C, and vigour index varied from 1349.4 - 911.2. After this study, dryer was found to be better alternative for drying high priced vegetable seeds.

Current study was based on the secondary data in order to compare the gross value addition by different sectors of the Indian economy namely; Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing, Industry, Mining and Quarrying, Manufacturing, Electricity, Gas, Water Supply and Other Utility, Services, Construction, Hotels, transport, communication and services related to broadcasting, Financial, Real Estate and Professional Services, and Public Administration, Defence and Other Services. Researcher also aims to measure the trend or growth of the gross value addition of these sectors during the year 2011- 18. Data has been taken from the annual publication of the RBI related to the Indian economy for the above mentioned period. Trend or growth in the share of different sectors to the total gross value added of Indian economy, has been shown using graphs while the comparative study of Gross value addition by different sectors of Indian economy has been done using descriptive statistics and the One-way ANOVA test. Further, researcher has done post-hoc analysis using Turkey's test to highlight the particular groups of variables where the mean values were found to be significantly different if any. Welch test has been used to measure the equality of means. It was found that overall there is a growth in the gross value addition of the Indian economy during the year 2011-12 to 2017-18. All the sectors are showing growth in their share in the gross value addition of Indian economy, except for construction, Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing and Electricity, Gas, Water Supply and Other Utility sector. While, in Mining and Quarrying sector have shown consistency in the gross value addition during the period 2011-12 to 2017-18. The highest percentage of gross value addition was found to be of Services sector and lowest percentage of Gross value addition was found of Electricity, Gas, and Water Supply and Other Utility sector. This shows that service sectors are contributing highly towards the gross value addition of the Indian economy while Electricity, Gas, Water Supply and Other Utility sector is contributing lowest to the gross value addition of Indian economy. Further, the study showed the significant difference in the gross value addition of different sectors of Indian economy.

The present study was conducted to examine socio-economic status as a predictor of educational aspirations among adolescents. The sample constituted of 240 students, 120 from Hisar city and 120 from Udaipur city in the age group of 13-16 years. Of these 240 adolescents, 120 were male and 120 were female. Self-prepared interview schedule was used to collect information on socio-economic variables. Educational aspirations were assessed with the help of Educational Aspiration Scale (form-p) by Sharma and Gupta (2015). Correlational and regression analyses were used to analyze the data. Majority of adolescents belonged to small sized families; about equal percentage of fathers had education up to high school, senior secondary school and graduation level. About one fifth of mothers were illiterate. About forty one per cent fathers were in service and majority of mothers were home makers. Correlational analysis revealed that there were significant and positive correlations between parental education, family income and educational aspirations of adolescents, while negative correlation existed between family size and educational aspirations. Linear regression revealed that maternal education and family income were positive predictors of educational aspirations, while family size negatively affected educational aspirations. As assumed, collectively, socio economic variables were strong predictors of educational aspirations of adolescents and accounted for 30.3 per cent variance in educational aspirations.

Twenty female buffalo heifers of 12-15 months age were selected from the buffalo herd maintained by Buffalo Research Centre, Department of Livestock Production and Management, College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Lala-lajpat Rai University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Hisar (LUVAS). The animals were divided into four groups of 5 each on the basis of their nearness to their body weight and age. The experiment was conducted for a period of 120 days ( Ist February to 31st May ) to compare the effect of two housing systems and two feeding systems were: T1:Conventional barn+ Hay and concentrate mixture , T2:Conventional barn + Seasonal green fodder and concentrate mixture, T3: Loose housing + Seasonal green fodder and concentrate mixture, T4: Loose housing + Hay and concentrate mixture. Body weight was significantly affected by the housing systems but not by the treatments and feeding systems as there was significant difference in daily weight gains between housing systems, but not between systems of feeding. Body measurements were not affected by all the treatments, housing and feeding systems. With in the limit of the present experiment it can be concluded that loose housing system with hay feeding as per NRC recommendation was better and more comfortable for young growing heifers because they had better growth as compared to the heifers those were kept in conventional barn under green fodder feeding.
