Water Diplomacy in the Cauvery River and Mullaperiyar Dam: A Case Study of Tamil Nadu's Experience With Karnataka and Kerala
subject: shared resource management; sustainable water management; water diplomacy; water negotiation
description: Water sharing by multiple nations internationally often leads to issues concerning access, utilization, and sustainability. In South India, Tamil Nadu's incident with water diplomacy, mainly in managing the Cauvery River Basin shared with Karnataka, presents important implications for reserve management and conflict resolution. The state relies heavily on its river systems for irrigation, drinking water, and industrial use, but the scarcity and irregular allocation of water resources pose a significant challenge. Efficient water diplomacy can help achieve sustainable water administration by fostering common thought and cooperation among riparian states. This paper critically evaluates the challenges and opportunities in Tamil Nadu's water peacekeeping, focusing on its commitment to neighboring states over collective water resources. It explores key themes such as the historical context of interstate water-sharing disagreements, the efficiency of existing lawful and institutional frameworks, and the role of political and social arrangements in shaping water-sharing negotiations. The paper also underscores the need for a more practical and mutual approach to water distribution, moving away from legal arbitration and political negotiation to embrace the values of sustainable and evenhanded water management. 2025 Policy Studies Organization.

Therapists as Researchers: Navigating Dilemmas From Research on Indian Therapists
subject: Indian therapists; research dilemmas; therapist-researcher journey; use of self in therapy
description: Background and Aim: This paper explores the journey of an Indian therapist-researcher as she delves into the complex realm of the therapists' use of self inIndia. It examines the reflection of an experienced Indian therapist-researcher investigating the complex phenomenon of the use of self. Methods: Using qualitative phenomenological interviews, the present study explores the dilemmas that therapists as researchers face during the interview process. This paper draws from a study with eight participants on the topic Use of Self in Therapy: An Exploratory Study Among Indian Counsellors and Therapists using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Results and Discussion: The dynamic interplay between researcher and participant identities underscoresthe necessity of carefully navigating boundaries and tailoring the inquiry process to participant needs and research objectives. This paper illustrates possible pathways of responding to these dilemmas of identity by transforming the interview process into a more participant-led conversation and using therapeutic skills to ethically navigate research interviews. As the researcher grapples with the question of whether the therapist self should be held back or freely expressed, the paper offers insights into the delicate balance between knowledge-gathering as part of research and maintaining participant safety. Finally, this study emphasisesthe importance of reflexivity in understanding the self of the therapist, particularly in the context of India's evolving therapy landscape. Conclusion: This paper highlights the questions and dilemmas that arise in qualitative research and the need for ethical reflexivity, responsiveness and sensitivity while working with people. 2025 British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Alternative Worldview: The Naga Weretiger, an Ecolegend in When the Millet Fields Flower
subject: folklore; identity; nativized Christianity; Peplestories; Tekhumevi
description: This paper analyses the Naga Eco-legend tekhumevi to introduce an alternative worldview through Indigenous communities' philosophy and lived experience. In the context of contemporary environmental discourses, literature plays a significant part in highlighting the affective folklore guiding ethical, environmental practices in regions that are considered ecologically rich areas. Foregrounding the vibrant tapestry of North East Indian Indigenous cultures, it aims to discuss the impact of extraordinary stories on the lives of Nagas and how they shape the community's worldviews. This includes their relationships with the non-human world and their cultural identity. The paper also discusses the vitality of the traditional ecological knowledge of the Indigenous communities and its potential to offer alternative ecological sustenance ethics through holistic worldviews. The oral tradition of the Naga community has re-emerged time and again as a potent tool in offering ecological solutions and abiding by the ethics of sustenance and co-existence. The paper discusses an example of such a toolthe Naga weretiger, or tekhumevi's colonial imagery in the Naga oral histories and lore. However, the perception of such philosophical instruments sees a change because of social and ideological shifts that may be attributed to the intervention of scientific technologies, religion, worldviews, and rationale. Similarly, the accelerated climate health crisis has shifted the focus to an inclusive approach in the 'literature of nature', especially towards the more-than-human, as an alternative to this crisis. The paper reinforces the importance of folk literature and its relevance in the contemporary Naga community, reaffirming Indigenous cosmovision and epistemologies as spaces of resistance and representation. Avinuo Kire's "When the Millet Fields Flower" from The Last Light of Glory Days (2021) intersects magic, terror, community, spiritualism, and ecological ethics. The tekhumevi narrati…

Promoting equity through teacher practices: A scoping review on transformative social-emotional learning
description: Literature on teachers transformative social-emotional learning (TSEL) is emerging and focuses on improving teachers' competency in delivering and implementing equity-focused SEL among students. Our study is a scoping review aiming to understand the characteristics of existing literature regarding teachers TSEL, identify gaps, and discuss future research directions. It follows JBI guidelines for a scoping review and the PRISMA-ScR method for screening the literature. A systematic search was conducted in eight databases, and eleven studies were identified. Our findings report the characteristics of the studies and explain related concepts. We found that teachers need to be engaged in transformative SEL education to implement TSEL among students and build healthy teacher-student bonds. Teachers need to incorporate culturally relevant pedagogies in SEL to cater for the needs of students from diverse communities. Stretching was identified as a strategy to integrate social justice issues into traditional SEL practices to make social-emotional learning transformative. 2025, Western Australian Institute for Educational Research Inc..

subject: Atomic absorption spectroscopy; Biochemical analysis; Chickpea; Enzymatic and non-enzymatic assays; Treated wastewater
description: This study compared the effects of treated wastewater and Hoagland nutrient media on chickpea growth. Results showed that Hoagland media created a more favourable environment, with higher protein levels and carbohydrate content. Antioxidant enzyme activity varied, with SOD activity increasing in both samples. Heavy metal analysis revealed higher lead concentrations in treated wastewater. The findings have implications for sustainable irrigation practices and environmental protection. Treated wastewater can be a viable irrigation option, but careful management is necessary to prevent adverse effects on plant growth and human health. Cautious use of treated wastewater in agriculture is essential for safe and sustainable crop production. 2025 - Kalpana Corporation.

Cloud and IoT-Driven Smart Irrigation: A Modern Approach to Water Management in Agriculture
subject: Big data; Cloud computing; Internet of things; Smart agriculture; Wireless sensors networks
description: Agriculture faces the dual challenge of meeting global food demand while conserving scarce water resources under climate change. Conventional irrigation systems often result in water wastage and high manual intervention. This study proposes a Cloud- and IoT-driven smart irrigation framework that integrates Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), an NI CompactRIO controller, renewable energy, and real-time weather forecasting services. The system collects and analyzes heterogeneous data streams (soil moisture, humidity, temperature, and water levels) to dynamically control irrigation schedules. Experimental validation on a prototype farm in Morocco demonstrates that the proposed system reduces weekly water consumption by 26, lowers irrigation events from 10 to 6, eliminates manual interventions, and achieves 13.6 energy savings compared with traditional methods. The integration of predictive weather data prevents over-irrigation during rainfall, while cloud-based analytics enhance scalability and monitoring. These results highlight the system's potential for resource-efficient, autonomous, and sustainable agriculture, particularly in water-scarce regions. Future work will focus on extending the system with LoRa-based sensor networks and machine learning-based solar energy forecasting to further improve adaptability and scalability. 2026, International Association of Engineers.

Deconstructing Feminist Perspectives on Work: Insights from Uchoi Indigenous Tribal Women's Worldview in Northeast India
subject: Decolonial studies; Indigenous feminism; Indigenous women; Northeast India; Tripura; Uchoi tribe; Work
description: Womens work is commonly conceptualized through an economic lens that prioritizes the valuation of paid and unpaid labor and assesses womens status and empowerment primarily in monetary terms. Such approaches are limiting as a means of understanding the lived realities of Indigenous Tribal women. In contrast, this article adopts a sociological and anthropological perspective to examine the multifaceted meanings of work among Uchoi Indigenous Tribal women in Tripura, Northeast India. The Uchoi community is a recognized Scheduled Tribe (ST) under Article 342 of the Constitution of India. By situating work within its sociocultural, ecological, and communal contexts, this article demonstrates how work shapes identity, respect, and social standing within the Uchoi community beyond mere economic valuation. Drawing on nine months of ethnographic fieldwork, this study incorporates womens memories, lived experiences, and narratives to challenge dominant feminist interpretations of work that remain largely universalist and focused on monetary value. Methodologically, the research employs elderly visitation, conversational methods, and engaged observation. The findings reveal a contextual worldview regarding work among Uchoi women, expressed through practices such as marriage by trial and service, weaving as both work and cultural expression, relational and reciprocal forms of work, collective labour in jhum cultivation, and the preservation of Indigenous knowledge systems. These practices are rooted in Indigenous epistemologies encompassing arts and crafts, weaving traditions, ecological knowledge, and communal labor arrangements. The article emphasizes the necessity of recognizing these distinct contextual experiences, cosmologies, and epistemologies of Indigenous Tribal women in theorizing work and empowerment. It contributes to feminist scholarship by reconceptualizing work through the framework of Indigenous feminism, which foregrounds Indigenous worldviews as embedded in …

A Study on Bivariate Inverse Topp-Leone Model to Counter Heterogeneous Data: Properties, Dependence Studies, Classical and Bayesian Estimation
subject: Bayesian; Bivariate continuous model; copula; dependence; FGM; inference; inverse Topp-Leone; MCMC; modeling
description: In probability and statistics, reliable modeling of bivariate continuous characteristics remains a real insurmountable consideration. During the analysis of bivariate data, we have to deal with heterogeneity that is present in data. Therefore, for dealing with such a scenario, we investigate a novel technique based on a Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) copula and the inverse Topp-Leone (ITL) model in this study. The idea is to use the oscillating functionalities of the FGM copula and the flexibility of the ITL model to propose a serious bivariate solution for the modeling of bivariate lifetime phenomena to counter the heterogeneity present in data. Both theory and practice are developed. In particular, we determine the main functions related to the model, like the cumulative model function, probability density function, and various useful dependence measures for bivariate modeling. The model parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method and Bayesian framework of the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methodology. Following that, model comparison methods are used to compare models. To explain the findings and show that better models are recommended, the famous Drought and Burr data sets are used. 2025, Thai Statistical Association. All rights reserved.

WATCHING AND BEING WATCHED: POWER, SURVEILLANCE AND AGENCY WITHIN THE DEVADASI SYSTEM
subject: Agency Theory; Autonomy; Devadasi; Discipline; Panopticism; Power; Religion; Surveillance
description: This article explores the devadasi system in India through the dual thoughts of Michael Foucaults Panopticism and Agency Theory, examining how power dynamics and social control mechanisms were both enforced and resisted. The devadasi system, originally a revered religious practice, evolved into a complex structure of exploitation and marginalization, where women dedicated to temple service were subjected to pervasive surveillance and disciplinary practices. By applying Panopticism, this study reveals how the British administrators and the nationalists maintained strict control over devadasis, ensuring their subjugation within the social hierarchy. Simultaneously, Agency Theory illuminates how devadasis challenged these oppressive structures, asserting their autonomy in subtle but significant ways. This analysis not only deepens our understanding of the devadasi system but also contributes to broader discussions on the intersections of power, control and agency in marginalized communities. The study also highlights the importance of examining historical systems of oppression through critical and theoretical frameworks to uncover both the mechanisms of control and the resilience of those subjected to them. 2025 Journal of Dharma: Dharmaram Journal of Religions and Philosophies (DVK, Bangalore), ISSN: 0253-7222.
