Spatial disparities in educational development across districts of Manipur based on participation infrastructure and institutional efficiency
This study examines the spatial disparities in educational development across the districts of Manipur through a comparative analysis of participation, infrastructure, and institutional efficiency indicators. Using district-level educational data, the study constructs three composite indices, namely Participation Index, Infrastructure Index, and Institutional Efficiency Index, to evaluate the relative performance of districts in the educational s…
Spatial dynamics of educational infrastructure inequality between the hill and valley regions of Manipur
Education is a fundamental human right and a key driver of socio-economic development; however, its spatial distribution and infrastructural correlates remain uneven across regions. Despite overall improvements in literacy in India, limited attention has been paid to district-level spatial disparities in educational infrastructure and literacy outcomes in geographically heterogeneous states such as Manipur. Existing studies largely overlook how t…

Transcultural Flow in the Age of Globalization
The chapter provides an overview of the volume by situating the Korean culture wave in South Asia. It elaborates the conceptual underpinning of transcultural flow in the age of globalization. Authors pointed out the lack of empirical research to understand the fandom, subculture and transcultural communication in the disciplinary domain of media, culture and communication in South Asia. Moving beyond the typical cultural studies approach to study…

Culture, politics, and identity in India
The present article attempts to understand the shifting configurations between culture and identity and its implications on polity and society in India. Conventional notions of unity and diversity are questioned along with emergence of identity politics. The resurgence of ‘identity politics’ tears apart the deep rooted cultural fabric along with voices to the ethnic, gender, minority and caste groups in India. This article addresses the problems …

Media Education as a Development Project
The recent explosion of communication tools and services within last two decades has posed new questions that are beyond the comprehension of existing pedagogy in Indian Comm unication Studies. Indian society has witnessed a widespread proliferation of media technologies to such an extent that they have become ubiquitous in society. Media education, in In dia, however, remains an almost unexplored area of studies. This contribution puts forward t…
YAP insertion signature in South Asia
A total of 2169 samples from 21 tribal populations from different regions of India were scanned for the Y-chromosome Alu polymorphism. This study reports, for the first time, high frequencies (8-65%) of Y Alu polymorphic (YAP) insertion in northeast Indian tribes. All seven Jarawa samples from the Andaman and Nicobar islands had the YAP insertion, in conformity with an earlier study of Andaman Islanders. One isolated case with haplotype E* was fo…
Influence of potassium permanganate on chronic toxicity of cadmium to common carp, Cyprinus carpio, and aquatic ecosystem
Common carp Cyprinus carpio was chronically exposed to cadmium (2.5 mgL‐1) and combined treatment of cadmium and KMnO4 (1 mgL‐1) for 90d in outdoor artificial enclosures. Although total and filtrable (dissolved) cadmium of water gradually decreased during the experiment whole body concentration of cadmium in common carp progressively increased in both treatments. Combination of KMnO4 with cadmium marginally reduced the accumulation of cadmium dur…
