Abstract: Indian Indigenous Agricultural Knowledge (IAK) encompasses centuries-old practices that emphasize ecological balance, biodiversity conservation, and sustainable resource utilization. This study delves into the relevance and efficacy of these traditional practices in promoting sustainable and eco-friendly agriculture. By analyzing various indigenous methods such as mixed cropping, organic fertilization, and water conservation techniques, the research highlights their environmental and economic benefits. Furthermore, the study examines the extent of global recognition and support for these practices, considering international policies and frameworks. The findings suggest that integrating IAK into modern agricultural systems can significantly contribute to achieving global sustainability goals.

Abstract: Digital signal filtering is used in many different fields, including communications, radar, navigation and others, because of its excellent performance and the ability to obtain accurate results using FIR and IIR filters. In this paper, we propose the design and implementation mechanism for FIR digital BSF based on the use of Cyclone II EP2C20F484C7 FPGA from ALTERA, placed on education and development board DE-1. The designed filter has the following parameters: -Clock frequency: FCLK=50 MHz.
-Sampling frequency: fsam= 2 MHz.
-Cut- off frequency of the band stop filter (BSF): fcut1=100 KHz , fcut2=200 KHz.
-Type of input signal is sinusoidal of frequency: finp1=50 KHz, finp2=100 KHz, , finp3=103 KHz , finp4=105 KHz , , finp5=150 KHz , finp6=200 KHz , finp7=203 KHz , finp8=205 KHz , finp9=250 KHz.
-The ROM capacity for the stored input signal samples is 8192X8 bits, and their values are positive within the range from (0 to 255).
-Frequency range: (0.12 Hz…1 MHz).
-Frequency Resolution: (0.12 Hz).
- Signal amplitude (5V).
Digital designs using FPGA allow the system to be modified and developed to obtain better results through reprogramming according to the user's desire.

Abstract: This research investigates the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) integration on employee well-being and creativity within the modern workplace. Data was collected from a sample of 132 respondents across diverse industries to explore the relationships between various facets of AI tool integration and employee outcomes. Factor analysis was employed to identify underlying components influencing employee well-being, revealing three significant factors: AI’s impact on mental health and stress management, facilitation of work-life balance and well-being, and contribution to job satisfaction and task efficiency. These factors collectively explained a substantial portion of the variance in employee well-being, highlighting AI’s supportive potential. Subsequently, regression analysis examined the relationship between AI integration facets, such as frequency of use, enhanced autonomy, collaborative support, and innovative idea generation, and employee creativity. The results demonstrated a strong positive correlation, indicating that strategic AI implementation significantly enhances employee creativity. This study provides empirical evidence that AI’s role extends beyond mere efficiency, positively influencing both employee well-being and creative output. The findings suggest that organizations prioritizing AI tools that empower employees in autonomy, collaboration, and innovation can foster a more supportive and creative work environment. This research contributes valuable insights for organizations seeking to leverage AI for enhanced employee outcomes.

Abstract: Underpinning of flexible pavements using geo- replicas — particularly geogrids has come a extensively espoused fashion to address the adding demands on road structure due to growing business loads and environmental challenges. This approach enhances the mechanical geste of pavement systems by perfecting cargo distribution, reducing stresses transferred to the subgrade, and minimizing face distortion similar as rutting and cracking. The objectification of geo-synthetic underpinning contributes to increased pavement life, bettered structural integrity, and reduced construction and conservation costs.

Abstract: Reinforcement of flexible pavements using geo-synthetics—particularly geogrids—has become a widely adopted technique to address the increasing demands on road infrastructure due to growing traffic loads and environmental challenges. This approach enhances the mechanical behavior of pavement systems by improving load distribution, reducing stresses transferred to the subgrade, and minimizing surface deformation such as rutting and cracking. The incorporation of geo-synthetic reinforcement contributes to increased pavement longevity, improved structural integrity, and reduced construction and maintenance costs.
This study presents a comprehensive examination of the design principles, influencing factors, and performance outcomes associated with reinforced flexible pavements. Key parameters such as geogrid stiffness, aperture size, placement depth, subgrade strength, and the thickness of the pavement layers are explored to understand their roles in overall pavement performance. A synthesis of experimental laboratory investigations provides the foundation for developing a regression- based model aimed at predicting the Granular Equivalent (GE) factor. This factor quantifies the reinforcement’s contribution to pavement strength, enabling engineers to adjust layer thicknesses without compromising performance. The proposed model is grounded in the AASHTO 1993 pavement design methodology and is validated through back- analysis of a wide range of laboratory test data.

Abstract: This research paper critically re-examines Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s seminal work “Pakistan or the Partition of India” through a contemporary academic lens. While Ambedkar's analysis was rooted in the socio-political realities of the 1940s, his arguments on communal representation, nationhood, and state formation continue to echo in modern South Asian geopolitics. This paper evaluates Ambedkar’s predictions about partition, critiques the theoretical and pragmatic dimensions of his proposals, and assesses their relevance in present-day Indo-Pak relations. The research relies on secondary data and scholarly interpretations, merging historical analysis with current political realities. It also engages with themes of nationalism, secularism, and minority rights in a post-partition context, offering critical insights into the enduring legacies of Ambedkar’s political foresight.

Abstract: An individual is part and product of his own social environment and so is a person with disability. The relationships, attitude and behavior patterns are vitally affected by the nature and extent of the harmony or disharmony of an individual’s relationship with the family members, relatives, friends, community members, workplace colleagues and employers etc. The social stigma still attached to persons with special is prevalent in society which not only restricts their activities but also damages their psycho- emotional well being as persons with special are less handicapped by their own disability than by the social attitude meted out to them in every sphere of their life. The individual who is differently abled often does not know when he/she enters a social situation whether he/she will be an object of curiosity, pity, sympathized with, helped, patronized, exhibited, praised for his abilities, avoided or actively rejected. This develops the feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, insecurity and frustration among the person with special needs and makes their day to day life a challenging job. Thus society’s attitude and behavior play a crucial role in the inclusive development of disabled persons. The present paper is an attempt to understand the various societal stereotypes and stigma towards women with special and its impact on their all round development. This paper will also discuss the various challenges faced by them based on social stereotypes in Jammu District.
