Admittedly , God's question is not merely a matter of the intellectual jingoism. In our highly atomized Contemporary world, the tendency is always to prove everything only from the standpoint of reason or through scientific experimentation. But reason and science unaided cannot lead us too far. Reason and science however, can provide interpretation for many different things but cannot give answers and solutions to all questions and every problem. What we cannot see are far more than what we can see through reason and science put together. Such things can only be apprehended possibly through supernatural faith. God's omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence can neither be merely rationalized nor be subjected to more scientific proof. However, Science, reason and faith are not opposed to one another. Instead, they are different aspects of one and the same thing, and, hence should complement each other without any friction. What matters is each being able to know its limitations. There are two companions in our earthly existence and journey: reason and faith. At a point, the reason can still see clearly unaided. Never the less, to some extent, the reason can no longer see clearly. It is at that point in time that faith takes over from reason. However, this very question of God, has eluded philosophers of different epochs. The researcher, therefore, never claims to give an adequate and exhaustive answer to it either. Hence, the writer employed the method of philosophical reflection as well as theological investigation to achieve the purpose of the study. The researcher, therefore, come to a conclusion that God is both all-inclusive and all-exclusive..

The study examined the relationship between social cost accounting and firms’ performance of consumer goods sector quoted companies in Nigeria. The study employed donations (DONA) and employee health and safety scheme (EHSS) as the independent variables (representing social cost accounting), while return on assets (ROTA) was employed as the dependent variable (the measure of performance). Secondary data for the chosen variables were gotten from audited annual reports of sampled five listed companies in the consumer goods sector for the period of 2013 to 2019. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis were used as the techniques for data analysis. The study revealed that donations (DONA) had an insignificantly positive relationship with return on assets, while employee health and safety scheme (EHSS) had a significant positive association with return on assets at 5% level of significance. The value of the adjusted R-Squared revealed that the two independent variables, DONA and EHSS jointly indicate over 13% of the systematic variations in ROTA during the period studied and the F-statistic of 3.673620 (P-value of 0.036624) is significant as its probability value is less than 5% critical level. Based on the findings, the study recommended that consumer goods sector quoted companies should engage in purposeful SCA practices for their employees, and they should also focus more on customer satisfaction in order to increase the firm’s performance.

Dalit community people are considered as outcasts according to the Hindu Varna system, and they are treated violently everywhere. Manual scavenging is a degraded work that is assigned only for Dalit community people, especially women. Many Indian villages expect Dalit women to do manual scavenging, and 'upper caste' people prevent them from getting other jobs. Equal status for them in society is demanded, and the government of India is responsible for protecting the oppressed class from the atrocities that happen against them. They are suppressed in all ways and are dehumanized. This paper will look into the misguidance done by the authority itself, which leads to the failure in implementing the laws that protect the oppressed class.

This piece of work investigated the Role of the Inspectorate in the Educational System in Kenema District. A descriptive analytical survey design was used to carry out the study. All the senior personnel were involved in the sampling including twelve supervisors, one inspector, three organizers, two football coaches and the Deputy Director of Education in Kenema district. Questionnaires were used and interviews held as and when necessary. Findings of the study clearly identified the roles of the inspectorate in supervising Primary, Secondary, Technical, Vocational institutions and non-formal literacy centers. It also explains the inadequate capacity of the inspectorate personnel in terms of human, material, finance and time for supervision. Participant’s revealed some problems encountered during supervision exercises such as, - Long distance with limited or no mobility - Inadequate stationeries - Too many schools and other learning institutions to be covered by very few supervisors within a limited time. - No reimbursement of travelling claims and overnight allowances - Unavailability of proper school records. - Negative attitudes of some teachers towards ministry officials. - Lack of adequate commitment of the supervisors themselves. The study revealed that, most of the Inspectorate staff had Teachers’ Certificate (T.C) and Higher Teachers’ Certificate with only a small number who are graduates, most of the respondents are within ages 40 – 49 which a youthful age is, the respondents have some amount of working experience which can guide their work as supervisors, that the work load of the supervisors is too much as they are expected to supervise many schools with limited staff, The Inspectorate staff especially supervisors have challenges to cope within terms of capacity, resource materials and even training, the supervision is mostly done on monthly basis, the bulk of the supervision activities are record checking and general observation of school and the Teacher, the constraints need to be addressed or minimized as suggested and recommended by respondents for future improvement. The study recommended that, Government fulfills her responsibility by providing adequate logistics for supervision exercises. E.g. adequate mobility, overnight allowances for distant schools, stationery, and even fuel for mobility, that recruitment process for supervisors and Inspectors be revisited and reviewed for quality selection of Inspectorate personnel, in- Service Training with regards Inspectors professional needs should be organized by the Ministry of Education to equip them for quality work, supervisors and school authorities to work hard for progress of the children or learners in schools.

India has for a long period before the British rule been a closed society where the people were discriminated on the bases of caste. The English Language education in India provided the natives with a way to the western literature and the western culture which created a class of educated Indians. Unfortunately, the educated Indians were mostly upper caste people who wanted to suppress the lower caste people and eventually during partition when the administration was handed over to the educated Indians they became masters over the uneducated lower caste people. Most of the partition novels has recorded the communal violence that happened during Partition but the rise of class distinction in India was seen predominantly in Khushwant Singh‟s Train to Pakistan. Disclosure analysis of the novel is made for understanding the way of living of both educated and uneducated Indians, the attention given to the educated Indians with respect to that of the uneducated Indians, the division of opinion among the educated Indians and finally the rise of new discrimination based on class from the caste system through the characters Hukum Chand, Iqbal Singh and the villagers. Textual analysis helped in connecting the partition history learnt through historical method with the actual text. The Paper states that the country once divided into different caste has now after partition been divided on the bases of the educational status as educated and uneducated which determined the class of the people. The rise of class distinction in India gave its citizens of lower caste a chance to work hard and attain a dignified position in the society.

The cultural boundary of the undivided Bengal roughly corresponds with the state of West Bengal and present Bangladesh, drained and shaped by the mighty Ganga-Brahmaputra-Meghna river systems. With the partition of India, Bengal was divided in 1947. The western portion fell under the control of India, which created the state of West Bengal, while the eastern section formed East Pakistan, which later became Bangladesh, an independent country. The Malda district, situated in the northern part of West Bengal, lies at the interfluves of the Ganga and Brahmaputra rivers, bordering Bangladesh.This district is relatively socioeconomically backward and has a high incidence of poverty, especially in border villages. The rivers here appear to overflow and are sluggishly laden with the silt that is deposited to create Char land along the borderline. The Indo-Bangladesh international border is an imposed border without any physical or cultural boundary, which makes it difficult to identify a foreigner on either side, providing ample opportunity for illicit subsistence activities such as the FICN (Fake Indian Currency Notes) smuggling.The international boundary here flows across both land and rivers and is extremely porous, demarcated through the pillars of the land. Similar topography, language and culture on both sides of the international border play an important role in the emergence of Malda as a hub for FICN smuggling activities. This paper highlights the role of geographical factors in the growth of smuggling activities in and around Malda district, with an emphasis on FICN smuggling and its dissemination among the different police stations that cover the district's C.D. blocks.

Stress has been characterized in a number of forms over the years. It was first considered as environmental pressure, then as a strain within the individual. Today's most generally accepted meaning refers to the relationship between the circumstance and the individual. When the resources of a person are inadequate to cope with the demands and pressures of a situation, it is psychologically and physically affected by burnout. As a consequence, conflict is more probable in some situations than in others. Individuals and organizations alike will suffer from stress, which can make it difficult to achieve their objectives. People's behaviour, especially changes in behaviour, may reveal signs of stress.

Over the years, American sitcoms have been widely criticised for their problematic portrayal of the East or the Orient. The genre sitcom is often used as a vehicle in normalising the Othering and stereotyping of the Orient. Where laughter is used as a shield to pass off clichéd comments and stereotyping of the Orient as harmless, this paper will be looking at the character of Rajesh Koothrapali, who is depicted as an Indian physicist. The paper will also be examining how his voice is silenced and spoken for, thus ending up being Othered and overpowered. The study will also focus on how this Othering and stereotyping produces a feeling of superiority, thereby generating the impression that the Orient is something to be dominated and subjugated.

This research tries to explore the clothing patterns and practices of ancient India and the influence of British with regard to nudity and obscenity. The research employs Edward Said‟s “Orientalism” to understand how the British view Indians and their attempts in changing the clothing patterns of Indians. It also traces media reports to show the impact of postcolonial practices in India in recent times and how shaming people for “showing too much skin” is similar to the Britisher‟s view of the orient and how it has become extremely gendered.
