Data were collected from UNCTAD World Bank database and CBN Statistical Bulletin. Consequently, Cointegration, DOLS and Granger Causality approach was utilized to address the objective of this study. The major findings in this study are summarized as follows. Foreign aid has not led to poverty alleviation in Nigeria. Similarly, FDI has a negative impact on household consumption per capita but not significant at 10% level of significance. This implies that FDI does not reduce poverty in Nigeria. In addition, there is an existence of an insignificant positive relationship between inflation rate and household consumption per capita in Nigeria. Furthermore, there is a unidirectional causality which runs from foreign aid to household consumption per capita. However, there is no feedback relationship between foreign aid and FDI, likewise FDI and household consumption per capita. Also, there is a unidirectional causal relationship flowing from inflation rate to household consumption per capita. Finally, due to these in this study, the following recommendations can be since foreign aid did not lead to poverty alleviation in Nigeria, the policy makers in Nigeria should not depend on foreign aid as only means of combating poverty in Nigeria. Therefore, the policy makers should use a holistic approach to tackle poverty in the country.<#LINE#>OECD (2016).@Financing – Sustainable – Development.@www.oecd.org/development/financing-sustainable-development/final-ODA.htm@Yes$World Bank (2016).@World Development Indicators.@Washington D.C.@Yes$Ibietan, J., Chidozie, F., & Ujara, E.

The establishment of National Informatics Center in the central government is a great leap in Indian e-governance sector. The early programs initiated in pilot bases in different parts of the country. The resilience to Indian context was the main challenge in the early years and the Indian bureaucratic institutional culture was not familiar to the sudden paradigm shift in the work culture. The implementation of the program was to strengthen the government service delivery. The rapidly transforming technologies have the capacity to create a changing wave across all the functioning areas of the government. The information communication technology creating a new opening in the government services delivery system for the well-being of the citizens.

The ′Kisan Long March′ captured national attention, and symbolized the act of desperation. Many landless peasants couldn′t afford shoes, and walked barefoot. The main objective of the protest led by the Left affiliated All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) was towards land rights from Forest Rights Act (2006) and improper implementation of Swaminathan Commission recommendations. In the past two decades, India has witnessed numerous protests by farmers but the situation remains same, and their struggle continues. Often, it is debated that the Indian press does not give proper coverage to social movements. Such protests are neglected, biased or framed as per journalistic conveniences. Thus, the main objective of the study is to understand the treatment of the movement by the Indian print. News stories pertaining to ′Kisan Long March′ will be analyzed. Each story will be categorized under five frames – journalistic objectivity, human interest, apprehension, political, and remedial frame. Content analysis will be performed on every news story.<#LINE#>Entman, R. M. (1993).@Framing: Toward Clarification of a Fractured Paradigm.@Journal of Communication, 43(4), 51-58.@No$Tarrow, S.

Year 2017 was the booming year for mergers and acquisition activity specially in e-commerce sector as this sector saw M&A worth $2,112 million according to report of Grant Thornton. Further, India has a potential to nurture more than fourfold to approx. $150 billion by the year 2022, affected by increasing income and heave in the internet users, as per the latest reports. Amongst all e-tailing segment is the fastest growing. Making the biggest acquisition in e-tailing sector this report puts light on the Most recent case of American retail giant which has acquired Flipkart in a competition with Amazon. Furthermore, it divulges the viewpoint behind the huge acquisition and how this will contribute to the Indian economy progression. The strategy behind Walmart-Flipkart alliance is more than just taking on Amazon. For Walmart this alliance will make its entry into retail in India which was long awaited through e-commerce route by holding Flipkart′s hand. Following this acquisition, the industry has come under the lenses of lawmakers and regulators and the new draft e-commerce policy has been formulated which mentions stern regulations on online retail, including curbs on discounts, which has caused an uproar in the industry.<#LINE#>Abrar P.

Discrimination against women is widely prevalent in almost all societies, whether it is developed or developing. Women′s crucial role in socio-economic activities has made them an essential part of the world labor market. In India for rapid and sustainable development, women′s share in the economic sphere is a prerequisite. Unfortunately, despite their immense contribution to the primary sector, they are not viewed as being within the production system, and their economic contribution to their families is often underappreciated. The higher number of females are doing work in unskilled areas and the areas where simple or traditional skills are required. Human resource is an essential prerequisite for the development of a country. Thus, the exclusion of females from the labor force, which constitute nearly half the population amounts to wastage of scarce human resources. This paper analyses the trends of female participation in the labor force by comparing gender patterns in labor markets. Human resources are vital to economic growth because they are active agents which accumulate capital, exploit natural resources, perform other social and economic activities, and carry forward economic development. Moreover, it is well known that the optimum of India and BRICS countries. It also identifies the factors responsible; for low Female Labour Force Participation Rates.<#LINE#>Sultana Firoza and Srinivasan Kamala (1984).@A Study of Female Labour Force Participation its Extent and Impact on Family Living in Rural Bangladesh.@Doctorate Thesis, pp 1-407. https://hd.handle:net:/10603/58621,INFLIBNET.@Yes$Verick Sher (2014).@Female Labour Force Participation in Developing Countries.@ILO, India, and IZA Germany. www.scribd.com@Yes$Nigam Aditi (2013).@Falling Female Labour Force participation rate a Puzzle.@The Hindu.

But the profits of those progresses are unequally distributed over the countryside. The inequality in income has risen during the past few years. The expenditure and consumption of the countrymen has increased at higher rate than that of the income. This has an adverse effect on the fulfillment of the basic rights of the country′s population. It is the constitutional obligation of the state to ensure fundamental rights of population. It is believed that this study will helpful for the policy makers in identifying the main causes of rise in the price of essential commodities in design effective programs in the concerning matter. Results of this study will facilitate policy-makers and respected authorities in taking proper and practical steps and developing feasible strategies to address the issue of fundamental rights of people in Bangladesh.<#LINE#>Ortiz, I., Chai, J. and Cummins, M.

Suicide makes disorder in society.One of the main reasons behind this drastic increase is that , a person with suicidal tendency get influenced by the suicide of others. But the pattern of suicide such as using components for suicidal cases are changed. From our seven years study it is found that uses of sedative pill and alcoholic substances are increasing compare to pesticide. May be bad smell and unavailability in urban area is responsible for this. It is also found that poisonous death of female victims of age limit 0-20 years and 21-40 years is higher than that of male victims. Whereas it is higher for male victims when we consider the age limit 41years and above. Counseling is important to prevent suicide. Proper employment, public awareness, socio-economic development, family bonding, community education in rural area, and social safety etc. are necessary to prevent from consuming poison.<#LINE#>Phillips, M.

With limited agriculture, their lives rely majorly on livestock farming. The Pashmina goats are prime among these and unique to the region. The world-famous Pashmina wool and fabric are produced in this region. While Pashmina is an economic occupation, it is also the name of a cultural identity of the region. However, the socio-economic conditions in these plains do not allow a very high quality of life. The development activities in Ladakh have been centered around Leh and Kargil only. The plains in the other parts of Ladakh have remained mostly underdeveloped. Harsh climatic conditions, poor quality of life and uncertainties associated with pastoralism are some of the major factors that have resulted in large scale migration among the young generation of the Changpas. This has put an old sustainable socio-economic and ecological system under threat. Major development initiatives are required along with scientific methods of saving the grazing land and planning sustainable agriculture in the region. This paper studies the lives of the Pashmina growing Changpa community of the Changthang plains in order to understand the nature and causes of their socio-economic backwardness, pattern of pastoralism and trends of migration that have affected the sustainability of life in the region.<#LINE#>Kunzang Dolma.@Map of Ladakh.@https://www.grandadventuresindia.com/Ladakh_Zanaskar/ladakh_zanskar.htm. n.d. web 31 March 2017.@Yes$Goldstein, M.
