Many religions, even today, do not allow the women of the family to communicate with the rest of the world. Development of women would prove to be very positive in development of the Nation.

Akhila Reddy (ph:8008603183, mail: akhila.23tps@ssim.ac.in) Sandeep P.S(ph:09037323232, mail: Sandeep.23tps@ssim.ac.in) Siva Sivani Institute of Management, Secunderabad. ABSTRACT “Make in India” is an international marketing strategy, conceptualized by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi on 25th September 2014 to attract Foreign direct investments from businesses around the world. Ultimately this process will strengthen the India's manufacturing sector. The campaign's purpose is to enhance job creation, boost the national economy and convert India to a selfreliant country and to give the global recognition to Indian economy. The purpose of Make in India is to convert the Indian economy as the manufacturing hub and to transform the Indian economy. India is inviting the investors from the rest of the world by eliminating laws and regulations, making bureaucratic processes easier and shorter, and make government more transparent, responsive and accountable. India is well known for software industry but lagging in hardware industry, therefore India is importing most of the electronic goods like Mobiles, Laptops, Flat panel LED, LCD TVs from foreign countries like Japan, China USA,UK, Singapore etc. as they have the brand...

...on affirmative action in India is long and not always geared to the desired aim: creation of equality of opportunity. Just like Indian secularism, reservation system in India has always a different political aim to make the system more unequal than what it is. Indian secularism, rather than making the state independent of religion, is intended to provide special privileges to certain religious groups. Similarly Indian affirmative system is politically designed to provide restricted rights not equal rights to some chosen people. The affirmative action in India has started perhaps by Vice-Roy Curzon in 1905 by banning the employment of Hindu Bengalis in the government services; the official argument was that they were too advanced and taking away job opportunity from others particularly the Muslims. Later it was extended in the military services by giving preferential treatments for Muslims and Sikhs branding them as martial races. Reservations in government jobs were introduced in 1918 in Mysore in favor of a number of castes and communities that had little share in the administration. In 1909 and in 1919 similar reservation system was introduced for the Muslims in British India. In 1935, for pure political reason the British government has provided job reservation for the backward castes. The real idea was to divide the population of India into several warring groups along religious, ethnic and caste lines by giving special rights so that future India would be divided and weak...

...MACROECONOMICS ASSIGNMENT-1 CASE STUDY: INDIA’S LABOUR MARKET The labour market trend which is a cause for concern The number of unemployed people remains relatively high, both in urban as well as rural areas, with urban areas showing greater unemployment in numbers, possibly due to inadequate employment planning in urban areas. Also, low Labour Force Participation Rate (LFPR) in both rural and urban economies for the age group 18-29 is also a trend that causes concern. These are areas are critical since they indicate (a) degree of growth in number of jobs in both rural and urban areas, and, (b) employability of youth in the prime working age group A critical perspective on the trend The number of unemployed people in India remains relatively high, with an average unemployment rate of 4.7% by UPS approach. The UPS measure includes, in the definition of employment and workforce, both principal and subsidiary status activities. This measure, therefore, includes not just regular employment, but also employment in the unorganized sector. We should expect that improvements in principal status employment or household well-being can and should lead to reductions in subsidiary employment. The absence of individuals from each group is for different reasons and has different social implications. For the population under the age of 24, the low participation in the workforce may be attributed to their attending school. This feature, though sharp in both males and females between...

...'information technology' as encompassing all possible aspects of information systems based on computers. Both software development and the hardware involved in the IT industry include everything from computer systems, to the design, implementation, study and development of IT and management systems. Owing to its easy accessibility and the wide range of IT products available, the demand for IT services has increased substantially over the years. The IT sector has emerged as a major global source of both growth and employment. INDIA AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INDUSTRY Information Technology is one of the most important industries in the Indian economy. The IT industry of India has registered huge growth in recent years. India's IT industry grew from 1.2% in 1997-1998 to 5.8% in 2007-2008. In the last ten years the Information Technology industry in India has grown at an average annual rate of 30%. The liberalization of the Indian economy in the early nineties has played a major role in the growth of the IT industry of India. Deregulation policies adopted by the Government of India have led to substantial domestic investment and inflow of foreign capital to this industry. In 1970, high import duties had forced IBM to leave India. However, after the early nineties, many multi national IT companies,...

...different from that in the developed countries. The most striking feature of labour markets in the developing countries is its non-homogeneous character. The status of the vast majority of workers in the developed countries is of wage and salary earners. Whereas in the developing countries there is a predominance of self-employment. This non-homogeneous character of labour markets in developing countries also implies that the nature of employment and the manner in which it is created is different in the two world’s. In the developing countries the vast majority of the population is left to fend for itself and create employment out of its own ingenuity, skills and capital. This leads to vast differences in the nature of employment and the creation of dualistic structure of ‘formal’and ‘informal’ components of the labour market. A large proportion of the workforce is in the unorganised or informal sector. These workers are engaged in economic activities with lower productivity resulting in lower incomes. They are also engaged in activities with less stable employment contracts (including the self-employed) and fewer social security benefits. While the wages and salaries of the formal sector workers are periodically revised to counter inflation. No such benefits accrue to the large proportion of workers in the unorganised sector. Inspite of growing literature on the informal sector, there are several gaps not only with respect to the data on the size of the sector, but also with...

...this respect, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) becomes one of the highly preferred strategies by higher education institutions for gaining a good reputation and a competitive advantage. The major finding of the study is that in order for an institution to be successful in CSR strategy, CSR actions has to be internalized and must be supported by the management. In India companies like TATA and Birla are practicing the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) for decades , long before CSR become a popular basis. In spite of having such good glorious examples; In India CSR is in a very much budding stage. A lack of understanding, inadequately trained personnel, coverage, policy etc. further adds to the reach and effectiveness of CSR programs. Large no. of companies are undertaking these activities superficially and promoting/ highlighting the activities in Media. Keywords: Corporate social responsibility, higher education, competitive advantage, Societal Marketing, reputation.

...(MGNREGA) was passed in Parliament in 2005 and has been one of the flagship projects of the ruling Congress-led UPA coalition. The Act was put into place to provide 100 days of guaranteed employment in a financial year to any adult who asks, and who is willing to do unskilled work. The intended beneficiaries of the Act were the poor. It was almost entirely on the basis of the popularity of this concept that the UPA government won its re-election in 2009. The objectives of the Act, as stated by the Ministry of Rural Development are: 1. Ensuring social protection for the most vulnerable people living in rural India through employment opportunities. 2. Ensuring livelihood security for the poor through creation of durable assets, improved water security, soil conservation and higher land productivity. 3. Strengthening drought-proofing and flood management in rural India. 4. Aiding in the empowerment of the marginalized communities, especially women, Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs), through the processes of a rights-based legislation. 5. Strengthening decentralized, participatory planning through convergence of various anti-poverty and livelihoods initiatives. 6. Deepening democracy at the grass-roots by strengthening the Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs). 7. Effecting greater transparency and accountability in governance.1 Implementation The Act came into effect on February 2, 2006. At that point, it was restricted to 200 rural districts.
