'Bhagavad Gita' is one of the essential Indian ancient scriptures like Vedas, Puranas and Upanishads. It guides us by showing various spiritual paths through which we can gain self-knowledge as well as inner-peace. Many of our legendary leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. Radhakrishnan, Lokmanya Tilak and many more was influenced by the philosophy of 'Bhagavad Gita'. This study showcases that, how 'Gita' influences the life of modern human society especially 'Y' and 'Z' generation. It also tries to analyze and highlight, how Bhagavad Gita supports and develops certain management vision and thoughts, which has created a benchmark in the modern world as a key source for success to any organization or an individual.Keywords

Sunflower, an important oil seed crop, needs a balanced nutrition for its optimum growth and thorough maintenance of soil health. A field experiment was conducted to study the impact of integrated use of organic, inorganic and biofertilizers on soil fertility, soil organic carbon fractions, soil microbiological and biochemical parameters as well as yield of sunflower (cv. GK 2002) in alluvial soil at Agricultural Experimental Farm, University of Calcutta, Baruipur, India, during 2013–14 and 2014–15. There were ten different treatments with three replications. After analysis, the data clearly showed significant difference among treatments in sunflower yield and a prominent impact of integrated use of organic, inorganic and biofertilizers was found under the treatments. Microbial biomass carbon, basal soil respiration, activities of soil enzyme and different carbon fractions showed higher values for those treatments where only organic inputs were given. The best possible combination for higher seed yield was recorded in T10/T6 treatment (vermicompost 2.5 t ha–1 or FYM (5 t ha–1) with phosphate solubilizing bacteria @ 8 kg ha–1 soil application + Azotobacter @ 8 kg ha–1 soil application + 50% recommended dose of chemical fertilizers + foliar spray (2% urea)). T10/T6 treatment is thus recommended for sunflower cultivation in alluvial soil considering the soil quality and seed yield of sunflower.Keywords

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is not a very new concept, it is an old concept. Earlier, in India it was optional to the company that they may contribute voluntarily towards CSR but after the Companies Act 2013, it was formally introduced in the business environment and was made mandatory for those companies whose net worth and profit cross a threshold limit. They should contribute 2% of the average net profit of just preceding three years profit. This paper primarily focuses on CSR practices of some selected public sector petroleum companies in India. The study has been conducted based on the Annual Reports of seven selected public sector companies. Five years of data on CSR spending from 2009–10 to 2014–15 were examined. Moreover, the pattern of expenses was also examined. Since petroleum companies are giants of the India economy and contribute significantly towards the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of our country. Thus it is necessary to look into how these companies are contributing towards CSR. An attempt has been made to examine the early impact of Section 135 of the Companies Act.Keywords
