The present study presents a lucid analysis of the job descriptions of different profiles offered by Indian companies during their campus placement drives in technical education institutions in Uttar Pradesh. Authors have attempted to analyze the job descriptions and the corresponding skills-set required by companies and the endeavors made by the institutions to empower their students with those required skills-set for ensuring their placements with suitable CTC packages. Job descriptions and skills-set requirements of 28 companies operating in diverse industry verticals and offering entry level positions to under-graduate and post-graduate students of a technical education institution constituted the sample of the study. Personality development endeavors undertaken of the institution to match requisite manpower requirements of the companies were critically analyzed to draw a best fit solution.

The country like India with a huge economy and an impressive growth rate has not been able to scuttle poverty at an equally matching speed. No doubt there have been policies and programmes to counter poverty, there has been less visible effect. This paper argues that although the poverty is at a decline in India, the pace of the decline is not impressive compared to other countries. Hence, this paper suggests that there have to be efforts on a war scale to eliminate poverty and transform the humongous population of poor from a liability to a worthful and a contributing lot.","PeriodicalId":166691,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Social Sciences","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123519388","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}

It promotes good governance and transparency in a state. Right to education is indeed considered as an essential human right since time immemorial. Education is a dynamic process that lends the dignity of man. It’s the most important element for growth and prosperity of a nation. Education is an endless journey that opens up new vistas of development of humanism in the pursuit of truth. Knowledge and enlightenment lead to character building, strengthening of mind and expansion of intellect. In the true Athenian and Indian concept, education needs to be free from all its fetters, social economic political, religious or communal. Education is of great instrumental value in the process of growth of the State and sustainable human development. Plato, an ancient Greek philosopher recognized the education as a part of major obligation on the state. According to him the growth and development of state primarily depends on the quality of education it provides to its people. Plato believed in 100% literacy that should be provided by the state free of cost through a uniform pattern and in similar condition. Plato’s educational system, therefore is founded on the principle of compulsory education, equal opportunity to all citizens irrespective of gender and birth ground. 21st century academic environment is breaking away from the conventional style of learning and teaching use by both the teachers and students. The technological enabled teaching has taken the place of old-fashioned model of lectures aimed at passive audiences. Today, attaining the soft skills their curricula become necessary to evolve the abilities to work the areas such as communication, team work, organizational system etc. Such skills may give them the extra edge to compete in the world of multiple options and careers. The success of higher education depends upon how intelligently one chooses the opportunities and resources at one’s disposal to reach the place one aspires for his life.","PeriodicalId":166691,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Social Sciences","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129902551","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}

Singh","doi":"10.29070/27/58078","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.29070/27/58078","url":null,"abstract":"This paper aims to throw light on the status of women entrepreneurs in India, the difficulties and challenges faced by them and also provides insight into the suggestions to overcome these hurdles. Women‘s lot and their position have remained neglected. Their share in entrepreneurs and trade is very low. Women entrepreneurs, not common to India face tough competition in this male dominated field. Women entrepreneurship is essentially a journey out of poverty and towards equality. Educated women do not want to limit their lives only to the household drudgeries. By their contribution they want to improve the standard of living of their families and to be the decision makers. However Indian women have to go a long way to achieve this position because traditions are deep rooted in Indian society. Entrepreneurship is a key element of growth and development prospects for all countries and it is most important for transition countries. The specific role of women in the economic effort has not been clearly defined but the need for “integration of women into development” is being particularly felt by women themselves. With the increase in the number of educated women, there is considerable awareness among women to be self employed and gradually the role of women is changing in the society. In this direction government and NGOs have emerged as a major support by way of providing training incentives and other facilities to succeed.","PeriodicalId":166691,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Social Sciences","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123463438","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}

Among personal sources, the influence of family members in trousseau planning was reported to be significantly declined and the consideration of friend‘s opinion in executing trousseau planning has significantly increased between these two inter-generational periods.
