INTRODUCTION GUeST OF HONOURMR. aSHOK aRORaMr. Ashok Arora is a multifaceted philanthropist as he is not only a well-known lawyer and former secretary of Supreme Court Bar Association (India), but also a Rotar-ian, Motivational Speaker, Law Teacher, Author, Counselor (Marriage & Youth Affairs), and an Ex-Student of Harvard & Oxford Summer Schools. He studied at the prestigious Hindu College and Faculty of Law in Delhi. He has held many prestigious positions like: Secretary, Supreme Court Bar Association (2001-2002 & 2002-2003); Secretary, New Delhi Bar Association (1989-1990 & 1993-1994). He has been a Member of Committee on International Crimi-nal Court of International Law Association and has been frequently appointed Judge for reconciliations in N. Delhi. He has represented many big companies like: Tatas, Bir-las, Reliance, Hindujas, American Express Bank, Motorala, Apollo, etc., as well as many union ministers, governors and chief ministers in many important matters. He had been on the list of panel lawyers of the U.S. Embassy, British High Commission, German and various other embassies. He created history when he successfully argued for the summoning of a former Prime Minister of India in a criminal matter.

However, Mr. Arora is more famous for his spiritual nature now, than his materialistic achievements in the field of Law. Mr. Ashok Arora’s spiritually enlightened stature is evident from the fact that Ex-Law Minister of India Ram Jethmalani named him ‘Buddha of 21st century.’ He is an altruistic humanitarian as he relinquished his lucrative law practice at the peak of his career and gracefully refused the offer to become a high court judge to dedicate his life to give much needed spiritual guidance to students. Mr. Arora felt concerned about the falling standards of physi-cal and mental health of students world over, students undertaking violence at an early age and the stress they go through and he established a school for ‘training mind and soul.’ This school emphasizes on spiritual and mental well-being because Mr. Arora firmly believes that all the problems in the world today are due to lack of training of mind & soul. Every decision in the world is influenced by purity of soul & mind; therefore, it is important to train souls and minds.

Mr. Arora’s eulogies and laudation by many national and international dignitaries is a testimony of his greatness. Dean of Institute of Criminology (Ministry of Home) asserted that, “Mr. Arora has been rated as one of the best speak-ers by senior judges and police officers coming from all over India & neighboring countries. He has been very popular amongst his participants.” The Principal of Police Public School said that, “Mr. Arora is a magician who holds his audi-ence spellbound with his profound and mesmerizing thoughts.” Principal of D. Public School averred that, “The beauty of Mr. Arora’s talk is that first he goes to the level of his students and then he brings them to his level.” Maj. General B S Daulta, AVSM in Indian Army said that, “Rendering Holistic Education, Values are the pulse of his talks. He is a gifted speaker with a pragmatic realistic approach to the experience of life.” His teachers has also praised him for his clarity of thought and expression. Professor Andreas Teuber of Harvard University asserted that, “Ashok is wonderfully intelligent, thoughtful and kind, a gift to my class.”

Due to his non-materialistic spirituality many have termed him ‘A Monk Who Sold His Ferrari in the real sense.’ Despite being heavily occupied with his important engagements, he never lost sight of the human angle; he helped release of more than one thousand poor prisoners languishing in jail for petty offences. At present he has 36 years of experience in the arena of spirituality, law practice, teaching, motivation, personality development, stress manage-ment and communication skills. He has been teaching law and has delivered hundreds of free lectures for the benefit of students, teachers, parents, judges, army, police, doctors, corporate and professionals on a wide range of subjects like blissful living, stress management, parenting, complete personality development, life/communication skills, lead-ership, matrimonial issues, corporate training, team building, family law, constitution etc. Mr. Arora has also authored many books which are a perpetual source of spiritual inspiration, such as; Simple Tips For Sure shot Success, Meet Your Soul, Road To Professional Excellence. The Chief justice of India twice felicitated him for his books on Law Day functions held in Supreme Court (India). His shared his experience of more than three decades of dealing with matrimonial cases in his book, ‘A Guide to Man Woman Relationship”.

When I took charge of Kalindi College on 16th April 2009, I found the infrastructure and other amenities of the institution to be in a deplorable state. Students and staff were lacking even the basic facilities. There was a great need for the college to grow and change, in terms of infrastructure, academics and cultural environment. .

Along with a team of committed and diligent staff members I embarked of a voyage of rectification and regeneration and I can confidently assert that the outcome is evident to all of us. In last seven years, the college has undergone a notable overhaul in terms of infrastructure development like new Chemistry Lab, Multi Media Journalism Lab, TRI Block, Amphitheatre, renovation of Administrative Block, Theme Park, August Kranti Park, Saraswati Park, Buddha Park, Butterfly Park, Beautification of entrance, installation of Fire Extinguishers, renovation of Botany and Zoology Museums, Convention Centre and Students Amenities Block, Sports Utility Centre with all modern facilities, Gym, funding for Girl’s Hostel, Teachers Cyber Centre; various educational courses, and phenomenal achievements in the field of sports and co-curricular activities. The entire

credit of funding, for these developments goes to former Vice Chancellor University of Delhi, Prof. Dinesh Singh and UGC officials. Whenever we required money they gave us. Last seven years have seen the college scaling new heights and consolidating its position as one of the best colleges in Delhi University. I convey my deepest appreciation for former Vice Chancellor Prof. Dinesh Singh, Ex Chairman Prof. Dinnabandhoo Sahoo, incumbent Governing body, my dedicated and responsible faculty, non teaching staff, and my students, in making this possible. It is because of their untiring efforts that the graph has shown a remarkable upward trend in continuation for the last seven years.

Our aim at Kalindi College has always been to provide an all round educational experience for our students, which includes academic as well as co-curricular opportunities. We have always been driven by our goal to do our best to help our students so that they are prepared to be successful in life and are able to pursue their dreams beyond college life. The world around us is constantly changing and we are aware that there are many challenges that lie ahead of us as we take the helm around this world of changing demands. We construct on our successes. We do not rest on our laurels. The need of the hour is to pool resources, collaborate, innovate and keep growing in order to keep pace with the changes that are inevitable. My dear students, in today’s world, it is important to have worldly wisdom, reasoning power and individuality. One must know one’s limitations and capabilities to be able to decide the course of one’s life. Life is a continuous journey full of divergence. The important thing is to move on with full sincerity, devotion and sacrifice, without looking back. Moving ahead with this loom, will not only add dignity to an individual’s life but will also bestow a new hope for humanity. The dividend of this investment thus is huge and wholesome and the same time it influences one’s fellow beings with its inspirational power. Like the horizons, learning is limitless and infinite, so the process of learning should never cease. It adds gusto, diversity and fulfillment to life. The whole of life from the moment you born to the moment you die is a process of learning.

DU Funded Innovation Projects (5) 1. Project Code: KC-301

Project Title: Assessment of Packaged Foods for Toxins.

Principal Investigators: Dr. ShanujaBeri, Dr. K. Vandana Rani, Dr. Manisha Arora Pandit, (Zoology), Dr. M.Arunjit Singh (Botany).

Students’ Investigators: 10

Total budget: Rs. Seven Lakhs Only (700,000/-)

Packaged food although a boon for the overworked urban population has many unknown ingredients which have far reaching impacts the consumers may not be even aware of. Although the focus is on maintaining the levels of toxic chemicals to the permissible levels many unknown toxic chemicals still go undetected. These may creep in from handling as well as packaging material.These impact the health of infants, children and the elderly. These chemicals interfere with normal body functions impairing health and lead to diseases as suggested by several reviews. In the project, packaged food from different sources & classes will be analysed and their distribution will studied.

2. Project Code: KC-302

Project Title: Microbial Fuel Cell: An Efficient Benign Set Up For Electrochemical Cell For Removing of Impurities from Laboratory Generated Waste Water

Principal Investigators: Dr. Tarkeshwar (Zoology), Dr. Amit Kumar (Chemistry).

Student Investigators: 03, B.Sc. (H) Zoology; 05, B.Sc. (H) Chemistry; 01, B.Sc. (H) Botany and 01 B.Sc. (P) Life Sciences.

35

Total budget: Rs. Six Lakhs Only (600,000/-)

Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) is a bio-electrochemical system that converts biodegradable organic matter into electric energy using viable electrochemically active (electrogenic) microorganisms and is at nascent stage of being explored. This Bio-electrochemical system converts organic matter to protons and recoverable electrons within an anode compartment. Electrons flow through an external circuit to cathode and conduct reduction reactions. Whereas, protons travels to the cathode through glass and indulge in metabolic reactions. The dissolved oxygen in the cathode chamber enables reactions of electrons and protons, thereby producing electricity through a wire completing the system circuit. In the current project, laboratory generated and industrial wastewater was taken as feed. Soil samples were collected from various laboratory drainage and other important sites for bacterial screening and establishment of their population. Initial work has been started with E. coli to generate electricity using graphite electrodes in a dual (glass) chambered fuel cell.

3. Project Code: KC-303

Project Title: A Socio-Economic study of the condition of the Elderly in Old-Age Homes of Delhi

Principal Investigators: Dr. Ruchi Tyagi, Dr. Indu Choudhary, Ms. Karnika Gaur

Students’ Investigators: 04 students from B A. (Hons) Journalism II yr, 02 from B.A.(Hons.) Political Science IIIyr, 01 from B.A. (Hons.) Political Science IIyr, 02 from B.A. (Hons.) Economics III yrand 01 from B.Sc. (Hons) Maths II yr.

Total budget: Rs. Three Lakhs fifty thousand Only (3,50,000/-)

In view of the rising proportion of the elderly in the total population of India and the growing levels of urbanization and modernization, it is imperative to understand the needs of the elderly and to assess if institutionalization of care services for the aged could act as a reasonable substitute for the support to be provided to them in future. The study is based on first hand survey of Old Age Homes (OAH) in Delhi. For the purpose, the students have been divided into five teams of two students each and the city has been divided in five zones. Each team of students is visiting OAH in their respective areas, collecting information and tabulating data.

4. Project Code: KC-304

Project Title: Conversion of wind energy to electrical energy at Delhi metro stations using light rotor turbines

Principal Investigators: Dr. Punita Verma, Dr. Neetu Agrawal, Dr. Reena Jain

Students’ Investigators: 08 students from B. Sc. Physics (Hons) III yr and 02 from B.Tech Computer Science III yr.

Total budget: Rs. Five Lakhs Only (500,000/-)

The effort to convert wind velocity generated by metros into electrical energy can be made possible by installing wind turbines at suitable metro stations. We installed a wind data logger kit at chawri bazaar metro station in the month of July 2015. As per the data collected we concluded that the average wind velocity is about 2.5 m/s and a turbine with a lighter rotor is needed for modelling of such wind turbine, wind velocities at different metro lines have been investigated at different heights for each particular position of the platform. This wind velocity profiling will be used to simulate the air flow dynamics at different metro stations.Simulations and calculations are under progress for the appropriate design and angle at which the turbine must be installed.

5. Project Code: KC-305

Project Title: Inventory and creation of Butterfly conservation in an urban setup

Principal Investigator(s): Dr. Varsha Singh, (Zoology), Dr. Sanavar Soham (Botany).

Student Investigators: Meenakshi Verma, Rachna, Lipika Jain, Aanchal (2nd Yr English Hons.), Chahat, Vaishali, Kanika, Khansa Kubra, Shweta Kalra (1st Yr English Hons.)

Total Budget/Funding of Project: Rs. 70,000/- (sanctioned under the Antardhwani Prize money received by the college)

As the title suggests the aim of this endeavour was to interact with such elderly people in and around Delhi who have migrated from outside or within India, or have started living away from their families voluntarily or otherwise. Through such interactions we attempted to know and understand their nostalgia, a sense of displacement or alienation from their past culture, ethos and habitat.

Starting from January 2016 uptil the end of March 2016, we have almost covered the first phase of our project which was primarily these interactive and interview sessions. We will now be plunging into the second stage which will be a constructive phase of creating literature out of these aforementioned interviews which eventually would take us to our final target phase of compilation of these creative writings that probe into the psyche of our subjects and exhibit their unspoken, unearthed feelings and emotions both of suffering and ecstasy. We then hope to get all these published in a book form as a dedication to acknowledge and appreciate not only the experiences that have been shared by our subjects but also the creative urges of our students who have wholeheartedly dedicated themselves towards this attempt.

Since then, many rescue plans have been implemented but they were not sufficient.

3. Project Title: Is de-industrialization a compulsory step for Modernisation of India

Project Investigators: Dr. Richa Gupta

Students Investigators: Deepshikha Jha and Saumya Joshi

The students have tried to analyse the link between de industrialization and modernisation in context of India.India which was a noteworthy player in the world export market for textiles in the early 18th century had lost all of its export market and much of its domestic market as well by the middle of the 19th century. The students have tried to find out the need for de-industrialization and its aftermath and associated links with modernisation. The students have successfully done so without any external aid and without any financial assistance from the Research Committee.

DePaRTMeNT OF eNGLISH4. Project Title: An Analytical Study of Decline of the Popularity of Indian Comic Superheroes

Project Investigators: Ms. Monica Zutshi

Students Investigators: Richa Sansanwal, Vrinda Bhargava, Sakshi Jain

Since its peak in 1970s-1980s, there has been a waning in the popularity of the Indian comic superheroes and by extension of Indian comics. The decline has been so sharp that in the 21st century, there seems to be a real threat of their going into oblivion. While their western counterparts have enticed the younger generation with

40

the help of the film industry as well as active merchandise sales, the scenario in India is dismal. Indian comic superheroes such as Chacha Chowdhary and Saboo (by Diamond Comics), Commando Dhruv and Nagraj (by Raj Comics) are struggling to find recognition even at the trendy Comic Cons organised in our country; Bollywood has ignored the potential of seeing these superheroes as protagonists of their films; and print media, too, has not been supportive of these figures..

Project Investigators: Dr. Rachna Sharma

Students Investigators: Preksha Jain, Princy Pal, Shubhra Sharma (B.A. (H) Journalism, III)

Technology has unarguably had the greatest impact on language in the 21st century. Some have gone so far as to blame technology – from spell checks to texting – for a supposed decline in youth literacy. Of course, whenever there is social or technological change, there are critics. While some of the criticisms have merit, others are over the top. Some of the scholars claim that abbreviations and acronyms used in communication technologies like text messaging are spilling over to damage formal communication is one that requires attention. The study strives to find out how this sudden change is occurring and what are these ‘slangs’ people generally use and how do these affect the English Language as a whole.

Almost a decade and half ago, then principal, Dr. Malti, with an academic bent of mind conceived the idea of giving life to the academic activities of the intellectual minds of national and international fame and this Academic Journal was the first manifestation of the same. It had been under her leadership that academic activities of national and international stature became an integral part of the life of Kalindi College. It was her vision to document the proceedings of such seminars for future generations; brought to life by late Ms. Manjit Singh who edited the first eight volumes of this journal.

The first volume (2001-02) published the proceedings of the UGC funded National Seminar on ‘Shakespeare among the Greeks and the Romans’ organized by Department of English in collaboration with ‘The Shakespeare Society of India’. Volume two (2002-03) brought for its readers a whole issue of Hindi dramatics. The third volume (2003-04) brought out informative and analytical presentations delivered at the UGC funded seminar on ‘A Decade of Economic Reforms’ with an inaugural lecture by Dr. Manmohan Singh, our former Prime Minister. The fourth volume (2004-05) focused on ‘Corporate India: Tasks and Challenges’, a seminar organized by the Department of Commerce. Volume five (2005-06) was a special issue on proceedings of two seminars: ‘Language, Literature and Culture’ organized by the English and Hindi Departments and the other on ‘The Emerging Trends

46

in Science and Technology: Photonics and Nanotechnology’ organized by the Department of Physics. The sixth volume (2006-07) enlightened its readers with the presentations made at two seminars: the one on ‘Translation and Interpretation’ organized by the Departments of English and Hindi, the other on ‘Pesticides’ organized by the Department of Zoology. The seventh volume (2007-08) published articles presented at the seminar on ‘Trade, Towns and Currency: a Historical Perspective’ organized by the Department of History.

Starting with our eighth issue, the journal has been covering a wide spectrum of subjects from different disciplines. With this multidisciplinary approach, we are able to give representation to various lectures and seminars that are organised in the college by different Departments. Together with this, the journal also provides a platform to our own faculty members to share their research work, papers presented or other papers that they have written. The preceding volumes thus have been an amalgamation of a wide variety of topics ranging from empirical studies of different nature covering national and international development and interactions, political compulsions and rivalries, different types of ailments and alternative medical treatments, advances in information technology and its varied applications to issues relating to status of women and their role in different fields, ethical values, language, literature and film studies. The tenth volume was dedicated to Late Ms. Manjit Singh for her incredible contribution to this journal.

We have already published fourteen volumes of the journal till last academic year. The current issue (vol 15) has been just published. An important landmark in the history of the journal has been the academic session 2013-14 when it was assigned an ISSN number.An important landmark in the history of the journal has been the academic session 2013-14 when it was assigned an ISSN number. This year we have turned it into a refereed journal and are in the process of streamlining it so that we may be able to turn it into a high quality publication.

The total collection made by students was around Rs. 15,000 which was sent to the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund to help the Nepal earthquake victims.

One Billion Rising: Department of Political Science, TIC Dr. Meena Charanda

On 5th February 2016, Kalindi College became the third college of University of Delhi to have participated in the One Billion Rising movement, the global mass action to end all types of violence against women.

“One Billion Rising” the biggest mass campaign to end violence against was launched by EVE ENSLER, on Valentine’s Day, i.e. 14 February 2012. In 2016, the theme of Revolution continues with a call to focus on marginalized

49

women and to bring national and international focus to their issues. At first glance, Eve Ensler’s campaign, “One Billion Rising” appeared slightly woolly. Initially people doubted that women gathering en masse to dance in public could help end violence against women and girls. But with 200 countries taking part, and grassroots organizations and activists coming together worldwide ruled out all such doubts. After Miranda House and Lady Shri Ram College, Kalindi College joined Love Revolution Carnival on 5th February.

The Department of Political Science organised the event to celebrate, the association of Kalindi College with the One Billion Rising movement done on women in all forms. The panel of expert guests included Ms Kamla Bhasin, South Asian coordinator of the movement; Prof. Bulbul Dhar, Diretor, Sarojini Naidu Centre for Women Studies, Jamia Millia Islamia and Mr. Deepak Marwah, Chairman, Governing Body, Kalindi College.

Ms. Kamla Bhasin highlighted various issues concerning women and the structure of patriarchy. She emphatically specified that the One Billon Rising movement is not a movement of women against men rather it is a movement against violence on women, which should be supported by both men and women. Prof. Bulbul emphasized the role of women representatives in policy making processes.

The programme also included • Specially composed song “Reeti riwaz ke naam par beinsaafi”; • screening of movie on “Immoral Daughters” (based on honour killing); • Flash Mob by students on “Jaago Dilli Jaago, abhi nahi sahenge” trained by Srijanatmaka Maanushi Samstha

(SMS)• Street Play by Raqs, the Dramatic Society of the College.
