The Bundelkhand region - approximately an area of 70,000 square kilometers with 21 million people, comprising 13 districts of Madhya Pradesh (MP) and Uttar Pradesh (UP) - is facing its worst ever drought spell in living memory . There are numbers of century old historical lakes in this region which are getting polluted day by day due to the growth of the small scale industrial corridor, nutrient loading and rapid anthropogenic activities. The increasing levels of metals in the aquatic ecosystem, their entry into food chain and the overall health effects are of major concern to researchers in the field of ecology. There are out of twelve existing plants in different water bodies, four aquatic macrophytes namely Eichorniacrassipes, Pistiastratiotes, Lemna minor and Vallisneriaspiralis were selected for phytoremediation study on the basis of their abundance in selected study areas. Concentration of six trace metals have been estimated in above mentioned macrophytes i.e., Copper (Cu), Chromium (Cr), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), Lead (Pb), and Zinc (Zn). From a phytoremediation perspective, E. crassipes and Pistiastratiotes are promising plant species for remediation of polluted water bodies of Bundelkhand region.Keywords

The Indian banks are paving their way towards the goal of financial inclusion, i.e., making financial services accessible to everyone. With the growing economy, banks are acting as a pillar for sustainable development. These days banks are facing a challenge to attract and retain their customers. They are formulating various strategies in order to gain or tap the maximum number of customers; therefore, it becomes imperative for banks to recognize the factors which the consumer consider while selecting a bank. This study focuses on the customers of north India , specifically the tier-2 and tier-3 cities, where people still lack in terms of financial literacy. A survey was conducted with a sample size of 330 respondents out of which 308 were considered for analysis. Various factors were identified using exploratory factor analyses which were reputation, technology, branch availability, appearance, word of mouth, customer services, price and amenities, These were well thought-factors by the customers keeping bank selection dimensions in the center stage. This kind of study would help banking specialists to customise their strategies in terms of increasing the number of customers as the competition is high in the market. Moreover, it would also help banks in formulating region-wise strategies.Keywords

The objective of this study was the assessment of antioxidant and cytotoxic activity from Tanacetum dolicophyllum. Soxhlet extraction has been used for preparing plant extracts for which five solvents have been used, i.e., Petroleum ether, benzene, ethyl acetate, ethanol, and water. Proteins, tannins, phlobatannins, amino acids, carbohydrates, alkaloids, steroids, flavonoids, glycosides, cardiac glycosides, and phenols were detected in the sample extracts. In the phytochemical screening of plant extracts, ethyl acetate and ethanolic extract show the best results which further leads to the investigation of antioxidant activity. Ferric-Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP), 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), Reducing Power assay, and Phosphomolybdenum assays were performed to estimate antioxidant activity. In the RPA and TAC, the absorbance of sample extracts increases as there is an increase in concentration. In DPPH and FRAP assay, ethyl acetate showed good results. DPPH assay for ethyl acetate extract with 172.73(µg/ml) and ethanolic extract with 171.07(µg/ml) of IC50 values. The ethyl acetate extract had the highest antioxidant activity. The MTT assay was used to investigate the anticancer activity. The MTT assay discovered that the ethyl acetate extract had the highest anticancer activity against HeLa cells with an IC50 75 µg/mL as compared to a normal cell line J774A. Several compounds present in the extract of ethyl acetate acted as anticancer and contributed to cytotoxic activity.Keywords
