Despite the staggering loss of life caused by the outbreak, little information about its impact and vaccination history has been recorded in administrative, health, vaccination, and sanitary reports. Through the examination of primary sources, including historical accounts, medical reports, and official records, this study seeks to fill this knowledge gap and better understand the impact of the Spanish Influenza in Madras. In addition to analyzing the impact of the outbreak, the paper will compare and contrast the Spanish Influenza with the current COVID-19 pandemic. The results of this research could provide insights into better pandemic preparedness and response in the future.","PeriodicalId":23114,"journal":{"name":"Towards Excellence","volume":"136 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135922683","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}

In addition to helping a company, identify risks and opportunities that could affect its long-term success, sustainability reporting is essential because it can increase transparency and boost a company's reputation. Environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, as well as the opportunities and constraints that arise along with them, are of increasing relevance to financial institutions. Banks are essential for promoting overall sustainable development since they act as a funding intermediary for fiscal and development programmes. Through ESG reporting, investors can assess a company's environmental, social and corporate governance policies and how these aspects are governed. ICICI Bank is one of such financial institutions that routinely reports on sustainability. This case study aims to look at ICICI Bank's sustainability reports and annual reports for the fiscal years 2019-2020 to 2021-2022 in order to explore the significant ESG initiatives and the level of important ESG disclosures made by the company. SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) analysis has also been conducted in order to evaluate the factors affecting ESG performance. Based on the findings, ICICI Bank is in the process of implementing sustainable business practices that promote the organization's long-term sustainable performance that have an advantageous influence on both the environment and society. Through business strategies and moral corporate conduct, the bank strives to promote long-lasting and sustainable economic growth.","PeriodicalId":23114,"journal":{"name":"Towards Excellence","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90887931","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}

A sample of 100+ students was selected using stratified random sampling, and a structured questionnaire was used to collect quantitative data. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and a multi-response test, and ethical considerations were adhered to. The study found that digital educational platforms are gaining popularity among students due to their advantages, such as flexibility and easy access to relevant content. However, network and connectivity issues, cheating, and lack of interaction with instructors were identified as disadvantages. The study suggests the need for further research to understand the impact of these platforms on student learning outcomes and for educational institutions to explore ways to integrate them into traditional educational systems.","PeriodicalId":23114,"journal":{"name":"Towards Excellence","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80345074","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}

INDIAN AGRICULTURAL POLICIES AND MEDIA REPRESENTATIONS DURING COLD WAR 冷战时期印度农业政策与媒体表述

{"title":"INDIAN AGRICULTURAL POLICIES AND MEDIA REPRESENTATIONS DURING COLD WAR","authors":"V. Singh, Ashutosh Kumar Singh","doi":"10.37867/te150204","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.37867/te150204","url":null,"abstract":"The article examines the relationship between Indian agricultural policies and media representations during the Cold War. Drawing on archival research, the authors argue that the Indian government’s agricultural policies were shaped by a complex interplay of domestic and international factors, including the country’s growing population, the need for self-sufficiency in food production, and Cold War geopolitics. The authors suggest that the media played a crucial role in shaping public perceptions of Indian agricultural policies during this period. They argue that the media, both in India and abroad, often portrayed Indian agriculture as backward and inefficient, and highlighted the country’s dependence on foreign aid to support its food production. At the same time, the authors note that there were also alternative voices in the media that challenged these dominant narratives and called for a more nuanced understanding of Indian agriculture. These alternative voices included journalists, scholars, and activists who argued that Indian agriculture was undergoing a transformation, and that the country had the potential to become a major food producer in the world. The authors suggest that these diverse media representations had important implications for Indian agricultural policies. On the one hand, negative media coverage reinforced the Indian government’s commitment to self-sufficiency in food production, and spurred it to pursue policies aimed at increasing agricultural productivity and modernising the sector. On the other hand, the authors argue that the media also had a more critical role to play in holding the government accountable for its policies, and in promoting a more nuanced understanding of Indian agriculture. They suggest that this critical function of the media was particularly important in the context of Cold War geopolitics, which often shaped the international aid and development programs that supported Indian agriculture.","PeriodicalId":23114,"journal":{"name":"Towards Excellence","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88490725","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}

Nature is one of the most favorite subjects of Dickinson. More than 100 poems based on the same put the stamp upon it. The love for nature made her produce poetry which is no less than that of romantics. Although ecocriticism developed as a literary field in the late twentieth century, the world of nature had already begun to go through deterioration way before that. The Industrial revolution of the nineteenth century can be called the major cause behind the deterioration of the natural world. The poetry of Dickinson raises the awareness among the readers about safeguarding the natural world by depicting the harmony between nature and human beings coupled with the awe for nature. The paper attempts to explore the ecological consciousness that lies in the nature poems of Dickinson. The poetry embodies the harmony between nature and human beings. The aim of the paper is to evoke the ecological consciousness within people in order to appreciate the beauty of nature and protect the environment.","PeriodicalId":23114,"journal":{"name":"Towards Excellence","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81780807","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}

This progress in 2020 was encountered by COVID-19 pandemic whose incessant spread necessitated women to lock themselves at home to be safe. Leaving only twenty percent women in paid economy, pandemic seized their employment and income, thus making them financially dependent. A demanding realm for women was created all the time by people at home resulting in unlimited unpaid domestic chores and no time for ‘rest and self.’ Disrupted medical services soared Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) by 35.4 percent besides unsafe abortions, less hospital deliveries and high-risk pregnancies. The spread also provided perpetrators a chance to abuse women which got portrayed through 47.2 percent hiked domestic violence, sexual harassment, abduction and cyber-crimes.
