Getting emotionally connected to virtual world of serials, movies and social media get embedded as thought prints. Who will become victims to such virtual emotional world? Those who are sentimental, those who experience sudden loss of someone deeply connected, and play of hormones may push one to seek love. Who can fit into those images of love? A friend, class mate, sports partners may get imprinted or super-imposed on already present thought prints. The interplay of such emotions may seem reality. Feelings and emotions take the shape of a person(s). That virtual turmoil may demand immediate solutions, or poetic Justice. How to face or get a proper solution, a solution from inside.

The poetic voices of Sarojini Naidu and Kuntala Kumari Sabat showcase a powerful blend of lyrical beauty, nationalist awareness, and feminine sensibility in early twentieth-century Indian literature. This paper examines their poetry through a contextual and comparative perspective to understand how both poets explore the interconnected themes of love, patriotism, and cultural identity. While Naidu’s English lyrical poetry resonates with musical grace and celebrates India’s cultural richness, Sabat’s Odia poetry embodies a passionate spirit of rebellion, social reform, and national awakening. The study analyzes how both poets emerge as “fiery flame rebels,” expressing resistance to colonial rule and patriarchal restrictions while also promoting a harmonious vision of love and Indian identity. Through thematic and stylistic analysis of selected poems, the paper highlights their shared dedication to nationalism, women’s empowerment, and the affirmation of indigenous cultural values. It also places their works within the wider socio-historical context of India’s independence movement and the rise of women’s voices in literature. By exploring similarities and differences in their poetic expression, this study emphasizes the importance of Naidu and Sabat as pioneering women poets whose works help shape a uniquely Indian literary identity that combines emotional lyricism with revolutionary passion.

This is about Nigeria’s multifaceted environmental crisis and justifying that the judicial enforceability of environmental rights constitutes a sustainable pathway toward meaningful remediation and governance reforms needed. Drawing on published books and scholarly articles consulted both in libraries and online, the study interrogates the persistent degradation occasioned by oil pollution, gas flaring, deforestation, desertification, recurrent flooding, and urban contamination across the country’s diverse ecological zones. It attributes these harms to weak regulatory enforcement, policy driven, rather than rights based environmental governance, regulatory capture, and limited access to justice, with the Niger Delta serving as the most acute illustration of ecological devastation. Despite an array of statutes and institutions, environmental harm continues largely unchecked, threatening public health, food security, biodiversity, and livelihoods. This paper advances the view that making environmental rights justiciable would transform environmental protection from a discretionary administrative concern into an enforceable human right closely connected to the rights to life, health, dignity, and livelihood. Judicialization of environmental protection would expand the principle of locus stands as it relates to environmental litigation, strengthen corporate and governmental accountability, and enable courts to grant effective remedies and deterrent sanctions. In contexts where administrative mechanisms have failed, the courts can therefore provide an avenue for vindicating community interests, enhancing environmental justice, and integrating sustainability into Nigeria’s legal order. The paper concludes that the rights based, judicially enforceable framework is not merely doctrinally desirable but normatively imperative for advancing sustainable development and the rule of law in Nigeria.

The consumption of alcohol among the Nagas, illustrated in Kire’s A Respectable Woman and A Terrible Matriarchy, appears to be a reaction to the existing state of political tension, personal trauma, and economic instability. In accordance with the findings provided by Khantzian, the use of alcohol appears to be a form of treatment which leads to increased patriarchal dominance and the justification of domestic abuse, specifically wife battering. This research will attempt to investigate the link between alcoholism and the phenomenon of violence as well as the marginalization of women as the victims and subjects to social conditioning. The issues related to social stigma associated with women who consume alcohol will be addressed, as well as physical and emotional harm caused by excessive drinking and its negative implications in terms of church- or law-based approaches, including the 1972 Billy Graham Crusade and the Nagaland Liquor Total Prohibition Act, 1989.

This paper explores the socio-cultural evolution of Tusu Porob, a major harvest festival observed by the Kurmi, Santhal and other communities of the Rarh region across West Bengal, Jharkhand and Odisha. It studies the origin of the festival, the etymological history of the word “Tusu,” and the cultural practices associated with the month-long celebration from Aghrahayan to Makar Sankranti. The paper analyses Tusu as a fertility-centred agrarian festival rooted in paddy cultivation, communal worship, song, dance and ritual immersion. It also examines folk narratives surrounding Tusu, including stories of Tusu as a historical or legendary female figure, and highlights the role of unmarried girls in preserving this oral tradition. By connecting ritual practices, folk songs, marriage customs and regional variations such as Tusho-Tusholi Broto, the paper argues that Tusu Porob reflects the intersection of agrarian life, gendered devotion, folk memory and evolving community identity

Crime reporting level in Kenya has a lot of variances across gender. While there are other factors that are at play in crime reporting, for instance lack of faith in the police, corruption among police officers and a long, tedious justice procedure in Kenya, it has been established that gender disparities that are so much entrenched in the African societies. The general objective of the study was to analyze the relationship between gender inequality and crime reporting practices in, Eldoret, UasinGishu County, Kenya. The specific objectives were: to evaluate how gender based cultural practices and social factors influence crime reporting and evaluate ways of mitigating gender disparities in crime reporting. Planned behavior and gender victimization theories were used to guide this study. A descriptive survey research design was used with purposive sampling method to arrive at the sample size. Questionnaires were distributed to 127 respondents. The Quantitative Data was analyzed using descriptive and content analysis. From the responses it became apparent that the respondents had been subjected to various forms of gender inequalities including gender based violence, denial of property rights, denial of education and cultural discriminations. Further, the findings showed that 78% of the respondents stated that they had never reported the gender based crime committed while 22% stated that they had reported. This reveals a very low percentage of crime reporting in Eldoret hence the based on the study findings, the study recommends that community based interventions which include incorporating the village managers and other local community leaders in raising awareness on crime reporting should be actively employed to eliminate gender disparities in crime reporting. Secondly the study recommends reforming of the criminal justice system to encourage both genders to report gender related inequalities. The study also recommends that socio-economic empowerment programs should be enhanced to reduce gender disparities

Social technologies emerge as methods to address economic and political issues within society. They are understood as sustainable, profitable, lasting, and cost-effective actions aiming to promote technological innovations that impact the quality of life of a given community. In Brazil, social technologies are produced by higher education institutions, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts of a solidarity-based economic culture—individuals driven by ideals of solidarity. This research investigates which social technologies have been produced and patented within the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI) database. The objective is to identify regions, classifications, and specific social technologies filed in this database. To achieve this, a patentometric study was conducted, analyzing 197 patent processes. The findings indicate a higher concentration of patent filings in "green" areas, particularly in the environmental field. The Southeast region shows the highest incidence of filings, and Section G (Physics) of the International Patent Classification (IPC) presents the highest concentration. The study identifies key areas and regions of patent concentration and is intended for readers, researchers, and students in Intellectual Property and related fields.

This article analyzes an experience of curricularized university extension developed in the Technology in Public Management program, within the scope of the Integrative Project I (class of 2025/1), focusing on environmental education, the appreciation of water as a common good, and the dissemination of ocean literacy in territories of the state of Tocantins, Brazil. The extension action took place between August and October 2025, involving two educational hubs and articulating territorial diagnosis, participatory planning, and community-based interventions. Methodologically, this is a qualitative and descriptive experience report grounded in critical and dialogical principles of university extension. The results indicate positive impacts on students’ education, the strengthening of university–community relations, and increased environmental awareness among different social groups. The study highlights curricularized extension as a powerful pedagogical strategy for integrating teaching, research, and extension while fostering social commitment and sustainable territorial development.

Institutionalized children under need care and protection often face challenges in their emotional maturity and social adjustment due to the separation from family, deprivation of parental love and security, and a lack of stable, consistent relationships with caregivers. To foster better development, institutions should prioritize creating stable, supportive environments, promoting meaningful relationships with consistent caregivers who act as substitute parents, and providing guidance and counseling services to help children manage stress and develop healthy emotional and social skills. In this article, evaluation on emotional maturity and social adjustment of institutionalised children under need care and protection with special reference to West Bengal, India has been discussed.
