A simple and rapid spectrophotometric dual wavelength method has been developed for simultaneous estimation of amlodipine besylate and valsartan in tablet dosage form. Two wavelengths selected were 227 and 244nm, for estimation of valsartan and 360 nm for amlodipine besylate using methanol as a solvent. Both the drugs obeyed Beer-Lambert's law over the concentration range 5-100μg/ml and 5-50μg/ ml for valsartan and amlodipine besylate. The r2 for valsartan and amlodipine besylate were 0.9982 and 0.9973 with mean percent recovery of 100.23 and 99.66 respectively. The Relative standard deviations for validation parameters were found to be less then the 5%.Keywords

Missed abortions represent a significant gynecological emergency workload. Nearly 20% of all confirmed pregnancies end in missed abortion. Clinicians still do not recognize risk factors for miscarriage Early identification of the at risk women could help decrease this incidence. The investigators did a hospital based analytical study to investigate the risk factors for these abortions Women with pregnancy which had ended in first trimester missed abortion (<12 weeks of gestation) were compared with normal pregnant women. Socio-demograpic profile was assessed and data analyzed to evaluate risk factors difference between the two groups which showed that women with higher age and under 20 years age, poor literacy, lower educational status and with lower income had an elevated risk of missed abortion. Gravidity and interpregnancy interval showed no effect in the study. The socially patterned risk indicated that a proportion of missed abortions may be preventable and that factors related to social position, probably of the environmental and behavioural type, may affect missed abortion risk.Keywords

In Outcome Based Education, defining Course Outcomes, content delivery and evaluation methods complement each other resulting in effective learning. Study of Control systems is vital in Electronics Engineering so that the graduate develops ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired stability needs. However, in Electrical Networks and Control System Engineering it is experienced that students find it difficult to understand concepts of frequency domain analysis. and control system components. The related course outcomes attainment is less than the expected level. This paper focuses on detailing the methods used to attain the course outcomes by linking the two courses viz. Electrical Networks and Control System Engineering. It also discusses the effect on performance of students in Control System Engineering course after improvisations in content delivery and assessment tools.The feedback of students shows that students are motivated to learn better with this approach.Keywords

Epilepsy is a common neurological condition, affecting 0.5% to 1% of the population worldwide. Rational drug design process of a new anticonvulsant could be achieved in several ways. The first strategy is the identification of new targets through better understanding of molecular mechanisms of epilepsy. Another way is to modify already existing drugs and formulations. The chemical diversity and various mechanisms of action of anticonvulsants make it difficult to find a common way of identifying new drugs. Novel anticonvulsant agents are discovered through conventional screening and/or structure modification. The new AEDs and anticonvulsant agents representing various structures have been reviewed in the present review. The newer agents include sulfonamides, amino acids, amides (analogs of g-vinyl GABA, N-benzylamides, 2,6-dimethylanilides, carboxyamides, hydroxyamides, alkanoamides); heterocyclic agents ((arylalkyl) imidazoles, tricyclic indoles, indazoles, arylpiperazine and piperazines, pyrrolidin-2,5-diones, pyridazinone, lactams, semi- thiosemicarbazones, thiadiazoles, quinazolin-4 (3H)-ones, 2,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-thiadiazoles, xanthones, derivatives of isatin), enaminones, imidooxy compounds and valproic acid derivatives. These new structural classes of compounds can prove useful for the design of future targets and development of new drugs.Keywords

Active learning approach in teaching learning process is quite useful and beneficial. It provides depth knowledge of content and active involvement in the class. Surveys and studies in the field of educational technology have proved this. Many educational institutes like IITs and NITs and Engineering colleges are adopting active learning approaches for making their teaching learning methods better. In active learning teacher acts as facilitators rather than one-way suppliers of information.
In this paper teacher has tried to prove that in her subject Electrical Network by using active learning techniques students have performed better and learnt more.This has been proved by showing the results of two consecutive years.

In today’s scenario females occupy the majority of the hotel space in India, but there arises a need we must become more proactive leaders to have their voices heard. In recent years, the influence of women has been growing vertically in hotel industry. There have been significant increases in the number of women holding leadership roles at all levels of management in hotels, inns, lodges and resorts across the country.
This paradigm shift is not limited within the world of Hospitality. But just as the nearly 11% of the Indian Parliament electorate made up of women felt they should have a stronger voice in Parliament, it is only logical that the women making up 57.5% of the hotel industry’s total workforce, according to a report published by Times of India (dated February 23, 2013) in south India and West Bengal, 55-60 percent of the employees in hotels are women while in Maharashtra, Punjab and Delhi the figure is 40-50 percent should have a voice in the direction of the industry. While in the common context the Hospitality industry remains male-dominated, particularly in the upper echelons of management. While this situation is changing worldwide, it remains more entrenched in State like Uttrakhand. This research paper reviews the literature on women in the hotel industry in order to contextualize the situation in Dehradun and Mussoorie, Uttrakhand where a significant and growing government-supported tourism sector makes issues of gender and industry practice especially timely.
Female respondents over-whelmingly emphasized that they have got plenty of job opportunities to build a career in hotel industry. Gender composition of the hotel workforce is analysed, and the directions for future investigation in the area are suggested.

MOODLE based classroom is implemented to improve teaching learning process. Some content of curriculum was covered using flip classroom technique which includes out-class and in-class activity (using active learning strategies). Attainment of course outcomes of each course contribute to the programme outcomes. Results of two consecutive years are compared and the results show that there is significant improvement in the Course outcomes of the course for these two consecutive years. It was experienced in academic year 2016-17 students' finds difficult to understand concept of time domain and frequency domain analysis. Different teaching methodologies have been incorporated in the academic year 2017-18 to make these topics understandable.Keywords
