1.   The Maluki Banjaran: A True Warrior Queen Of Banjara Society -   Dr. Ashok Shankarao Pawar

 ABSTRACT

Banjaras have a unique culture of their own and spread all over the country. Banjara is one of the indigenous tribes of India. There are diverse opinions about the origin of Banjaras but from the language, dressing pattern, clans, and culture one comes to know that they belong to Rajasthan. The identity of the community is unique due to its culture. There seems to be an impact of modernization and globalization on the age-old culture of the tribe. It is very difficult to state the accurate history of the tribe. Its history goes back to about five hundred years. It is an ethnic nomadic tribe with rich cultural heritage. Being the richest country in the world, we used to call India the golden bird it is true that the Banjaras have contributed a lot to it. The paper focuses on the golden legend of Maluki Banjaran is a true warrior queen of banjara society. The use of history of the Malluki Das has been as a freedom fighter, a role model in different contexts and a symbol, as well as an inspirational source of women empowerment.

1. Agricultural Growth Analysis – A Study of Maharashtra State  - Dr. Sunil Sheshrao Narwade

ABSTRACT

            The present paper attempts to analyze agricultural growth of principle crops in Maharashtra state of India during the pre- and post-reform period up to 2009-10. The agricultural performance was evaluated on the basis of estimates of compound annual growth rates and coefficients of variation of area, production and yields per hectare of principal crops in Maharashtra state. The study found that total foodgrains production which decelerated during the early post-reform period over pre-reform period, picked up during later post-reform period. The output instability in total foodgrains remained low during all the periods under study. The output growth rate of wheat maize and sugarcane crops has accelerated during the post-reform periods mainly due to area expansion. In pulses arhar and gram improved output growth performance during post-reform periods. But the coarse cereals like bajra,  small millets and ragi have registered dismal output performance during the post-reform periods due to loss of area.

5Patterns of Employment in Rural Marathwada  - Sunil Narwade

Abstract

            The present study is an attempt to find out the patterns of rural employment in Marathwada. The total 287 households from twelve villages of six districts of Marathwada were selected for the collection of primary data to find out the patterns of rural employment in Marathwada. The study used descriptive statistics for the purpose of data analysis. To find out the statistical difference in land holdings, pattern of employment among various social groups the chi-square test (5 % significance level) is used. The multinomial regression analysis is used to analyse determinants of pattern of employment in rural Marathwada. The study found high significant differences among various social groups in case of access to land, employment pattern in rural Marathwada and caste, landholdings are the significant determinants of employment pattern in rural Marathwada. Most of the Scheduled castes were landless and depended upon farm and non-farm casual wage employment. Migration was also relatively high among scheduled castes for casual employment. To augment the operational holdings of small and marginal farmers, the process of land lease in and lease out should be eased. The government land or common land should be made available to landless scheduled castes on prioirity basis. Giving access to credit and encouraging self-employment activities in partnership with other social group members can be an important initiative to generate non-farm self-employment among scheduled castes.

 1. The Causal Relationship Between Stock Prices And The Demand For Money In Saudi Arabia  - Dr. P. V. DESHMUKH

 

ABSTRACT

The aim of the research is to test the causal relationship between stock prices and the demand for money in Saudi Arabia during (1985-2019). The ARDL method was used to test the existence of a relationship between variables in the long run, in addition to testing the existence of causality between variables using Granger causality. The results showed a positive relationship between stock prices and the demand for money in Saudi Arabia. Granger's causality showed that there is no causality between stock prices and the demand for money in both directions. This result differs from previous studies due to the difference in data and measures used. The results emphasized the importance of not ignoring this variable when estimating the demand for money function because it will lead to biased results. The researcher recommends conducting a study for the same variables used in this research using other scales.

KEYWORDS: Stock, Demand for Money, ARDL & Granger Causality

ABSTRACT

             The study aims to identify the determinants of profitability in Saudi insurance companies. For this purpose, the data were collected about the study variables (company size, debt ratio, loss ratio, retention ratio, investment income) as independent variables. To measure its impact on the profitability of insurance companies, expressed as return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE). Using Panel Data for 25 insurance companies in Saudi Arabia during (2010-2016), the random-effects model (REM) was used to examine the relationship between the profitability of insurance companies and the independent variables. The study concluded that the profitability of insurance companies is significantly associated with the size of the insurance company, debt ratio, and the rate of actual loss. The results also showed that the volume of written premiums is the most influential variable on the profitability of insurance companies, followed by the indebtedness rate and then the actual loss.

1. Analysis Of Recent Trends And Patterns Of Social Sector Expenditure In India: Special Reference To Health And Education

Gunwant Gadbade1 and Chandrakant Kokate2

ABSTRACT: Considering country’s demographic dividend of a largest young population in the working age class, progress in social infrastructure such as education, health services, are needed for improvement in both quality of life and productivity of the economy. The levels of public expenditure

on social sector services indicate the commitment of the government towards social sector development. The recent government reports and data claims that, the public expenditure in social sector has increased. In this context in the current paper we made an attempt to analyse the recent

trends of public expenditure on education, health and social sector and its composition. We found that in recent years the public expenditure in social sector and health has increased gradually, but decreased in sector. It reveals that the Indian states are incurring highest spending on revenue account and the capital expenditure constitutes very small portion of total expenditure on education, health and social sectors.

2. Gender Imbalance in India: Causes and Emerging Issues - Chandrakant N. Kokate

Abstract: The provisional data of 2011 Census has once again highlighted the problem of severe sex imbalance in the country, especially in 0-6 age group. According to Census of 2011, the sex ratio in 0-6 year’s age group has declined to 914 females per 1000 males as compared to 927 in 2001. It shows an increasing trend of male preference as compared to female in the last decade. The phenomenon of son preference is coupled with death of young females due to lack of medical care, under nutrition, female infanticide, and sex selective abortions. Sen (1992, 2003) first addressed the disturbing trend by

highlighting that millions of females in India are missing because of widespread neglect in health care, nutrition and prenatal care. The steep decline in sex ratio in northern and western states is a cause of worry. Technological developments permitting sex-selective abortions have seriously aggravated sex imbalance in these states. The trend of rapid decline in sex ratio has given rise to serious social, demographic and cultural problems. This present paper attempts to explain the causes for gender imbalance and its implications on the society as a whole.
