Promotion of consumer welfare is the common goal of consumer protection and competition policy. As India's economies move progressively towards increased liberalisation, certain undesirable business practices can emerge which act as a hindrance to development and economic growth. The absence of a competition and consumer protection policy in India has created opportunities for some sectors of the business community to engage in unfair business practices viz., price fixing, speculative hoarding and collusive tendering.\u0000Competition policy and consumer policy reinforce one another. In markets that are effectively competitive, producers have internal incentives to further consumer policy objectives, for example, to develop a relationship for quality or to attract customers away from rivals by providing the necessary information to minimise switching costs. At the same time, when consumers are able to exercise their choices effectively, they can act as a competitive discipline upon producers. Thus, there is a strong case to be made for the co-ordination of these two policy areas.\u0000In the light of India's commitment to a liberalised economy, there is a need for a fair and equitable environment where producer and consumer can maximise their profit and satisfaction respectively. There is therefore a need for India's Competition and Consumer Protection policy if market oriented policies are to be given the best possible chance of success. In the backdrop of this, it is therefore imperative for India to develop this Policy ensuring the supporting legislation, infrastructure and regulations. In this context, the present paper analysis the standard of consumer welfare required to be taken into consideration while dealing with competition issues, and to what extent is protection accorded to consumers under other legislations.","PeriodicalId":135569,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Innovations","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114147244","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the powerful impact as mostly the advertisements is done with celebrities this is the main reason youth easily believe. Today’s youth are more sensitive and far more sophisticated than were 20 years ago. Youth is treated as the special audience. The effect of advertising on youth can be seen through their changes in their personality, food habits, and attitudes. In 21st century the youth is getting much more conscious regarding their style, fashion and looks. Advertisements play a vital role in persuading them and encouraging them to buy more fashion oriented products. Throughout history, the media has used stereotypes to convey a false perception to society of a certain group, race or religion. By displaying such negative and confining images in advertisements, adverts are limiting the self-concept of young impressionable adults. By growing up around such images, young adults are taught that the ideas are presented are the “set” way of life, and are swayed to believe that these false perceptions are reality. Teens are given impractible, unattainable goal to love up to which is presented to them. For e.g. Actors wearing Lacoste clothing in advertisements, teenagers act in different ways and try to copy the actor or actresses. This research tries to understand the perception of youth, their changing habits and their frame of mind in regard to the advertisements.","PeriodicalId":135569,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Innovations","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116605989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Extant research suggests that new technologies such as Web 2.0 which include blogs, social media and collaborative content sites such as Wiki have positively enhanced the education related outcomes in higher education. Social networking tools like Facebook and Twitter have established themselves as powerful communication and collaboration tools due to the perceived educational needs of the current generation of students enrolled in higher education also known as the ‘digital natives’. Existing literature establishes that Facebook facilitates collaborative learning, extends classroom interaction and encourages even introvert students to participate in the learning process. Though the use of social media in developed countries is a tried and tested method for enhancing learning outcomes, educators and students in developing countries like India are still tinkering with the idea. The reluctance to extend learning beyond the formal classroom set-up emanates due to a variety of factors: Educators are ill-equipped technically to use the Web 2.0 technology effectively, the perception of both stakeholders that social media particularly Facebook is meant for social networking and entertainment and proves to be a ‘distraction’ in academics. This research paper explores the role of Facebook in creating a classroom extension in higher education by educators and students of multiple streams of mass communication located in Delhi and NCR. It employs a survey of both students and educators to understand the usage of Facebook in providing positive learning outcomes.","PeriodicalId":135569,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Innovations","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125505237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to diverse geo-climatic conditions prevalent in different parts of the globe, different types of natural disasters like floods, droughts, earthquakes, cyclones, landslides, volcanoes, etc. strikes according to the vulnerability of the area. India is considered as the world's most disaster prone country. It has witnessed devastating natural disasters in recent past like droughts, floods, cyclones, earthquakes, landslides, etc. Social media is strongly influencing our life. There are several social media such as Twitter, Facebook, and types of communication technologies are constantly changing our habits of communication. We do not only share information in face to face contacts, but also via a multitude of new forms of social media. New technologies like smart phones comprise diverse sensors, such as cameras, microphones and GPS, which enable a new level of information distribution. This new technology combined with social media allows the user to share information with a huge and growing community. There is not just the information we knowingly share, but also metadata about location, time and so forth. Within these new forms of communication and hidden data lies a big opportunity for crisis mapping and disaster management. These new types of information-usage and new technology can be useful for situational awareness, the distribution of alerts and further functions of disaster management. In this paper an attempt has been made to throw light on some aspect of social media in creating awareness related to the disaster among the masses. Moreover, use of social media during a disaster or emergency management is an entirely new outlook..","PeriodicalId":135569,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Innovations","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128705340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
