College Day Report – 2016-17 COLLEGE DAY REPORT – 2016-17 Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives- choice, not chance, determines your destiny – Aristotle. A pleasant morning to the august gathering. It is my pleasure and honour to welcome you all to the 12th College Day of Shasun. Today I am overwhelmed with joy to be a part of this esteemed institution which is inching its way towards its pinnacle of glory.

Our Secretary Shri Abhaya Kumar Jain, Associate Secretary Shri Ashok Kumar Mehta and other Members of the board have been a great support for our Institution to make it go with the motto „Go Beyond‟ and to enhance opportunities for the exploration, creative expression of knowledge and ideas. Magnanimously, the management also offers scholarships for the needy students to ensure that there is no impediment in continuing their education. In this academic year 2016-17, Rs.54,88,145.00 was offered as scholarship to our students. Scholarship Details break up is as follows: S.NO. SCHOLARSHIP DETAILS AMOUNT in Rs. 1. Management Scholarship 50,59,895.00 2. Other Scholarship 2,75,250.00 3. Jain India Trust 54,500.00 4. Rajasthani Trust 14,000.00 5. Shri Shirdi Seva Samaj 24,500.00 6.

RECOGNITION: It is a matter of pride that our college had been selected for the „Best Accredited Student Branch‟ award in 2014 by Computer Society of India. The award was presented during the annual convention at Coimbatore on 25th January 2017. We became the CSI Institution member in 2013(IM102066). All the first year students of BSC CS and BCA are the student members. NIRF RANKING 2017 The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) was approved by the MHRD and launched by Honourable Minister of Human Resource Development on 29th September 2015. This framework outlines a methodology to rank institutions across the country.

    Editorial Careers and Competition octors have respect in society and earn well. They have long working hours though and a very long preparatory Dperiod. Engineers also have a respectable standing in the society and in the matrimonial market. The workshops are noisy and field work involves exposure to wind, sun, snow and rain. Management graduates earn fabulous salaries. They have challenging roles and are in the line of fire if results don’t match expectations. Show business artists have glamorous lifestyles but spend most of their working time with greasepaint and under arc lights. The civil service enjoys proximity to power. There appear endless career choices and students are naturally indecisive while facing options for courses and colleges after school graduation. Entry to most preferred career choices are competitive and involve two or more phases of education and selection examinations. Entering one’s preferred career calls for preparation and determination. A mismatch can ruin one’s life and happiness, resulting in lack of interest and poor performance in work. It could leave one as a misfit with low opportunities for growth and satisfaction. Perhaps this may reflect on the earning potential also. It is therefore a very important and critical decision. There are several aptitude tests that can be useful for guiding a young person. Some may be available on line and others at career counselling centres. While alternatives need to be examined, an important aspect to be considered and understood is one’s strengths and weaknesses. These are meant to assess various abilities of an individual and match these with the requirement of a career.

  • Microbial Dynamics of Endemic Earthworms on Soil Health and Sustainable Agriculture
    Nature Environment and Pollution Technology ISSN: 0972-6268 Vol. 13 No. 2 pp. 265-274 2014 An International Quarterly Scientific Journal Original Research Paper Microbial Dynamics of Endemic Earthworms on Soil Health and Sustainable Agriculture Chengalvarayan Dhakshayani, Sultan Ahmed Ismail* and Nausheen Dawood P.G. and Research Department of Zoology, JBAS College for Women, Chennai-600018, T. N., India *Ecoscience Research Foundation, Chennai-600 041, T. N., India ABSTRACT Nat. Env. & Poll. Tech. Website: www.neptjournal.com Earthworms harness the microorganisms which are beneficial to the agro-ecosystem, as they synergistically decompose soil organic matter and help in nutrients cycling. Lampito mauritii and Received: 19-9-2013 Perionyx excavatus are endemic earthworms which dominate the Indian soils, especially in south Accepted: 19-11-2013 India. However, the exotic earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae has been harnessed for the formation of Key Words: compost and organic matter decomposition. Endemic earthworms do not coexist with exotics as they Endemic earthworms eliminate the former due to competition for food and space. The present study aims to reveal the Microbial dynamics physical, chemical and biological differences between the different products of the endemic earthworms Sustainable agriculture L. mauritii and P. excavatus and the exotic earthworm E. eugeniae to better understand their contributions Biofertilisers to agricultural soil and nutrient management. The three major earthworm products include cast, compost and drilosphere soil of earthworms. Different groups of microorganisms present in earthworm products include major microbial groups, biofertilisers, carbon, and nitrogen mineralizers. The results reveal that the products of endemic earthworms show significant increase in biofertilisers such as nitrogen fixers and phosphate solubilizers, heterotrophic bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes compared to the products from the exotic earthworm.

    SOIL HEALTH IS HUMAN HEALTH - AN INDIAN EARTHWORM’S EYEVIEW Sultan Ahmed Ismail Head, Department of Biotechnology, The New College, Chennai 600014, India email: [email protected] Key words: soil health, earthworms, vermicompost, vermiwash, organic foliars Abstract Vermicompost is an excellent organic fertiliser in which bacteria are the major colonizers, which include high population of nitrogen fixers, phosphate solubilizers, and sulphur bacteria. Fungi are established to be active degraders of organic matter in soils. Many substrates are first colonized by what are known as sugar fungi such as the Mucorales. Blue green algae (BGA) have been recorded by us in vermicompost and are the Anabaena sp, Oscillatoria, Tolypothrix, Chlorella and Westiellopsis. All these when incorporated into the soil through vermicompost contribute to soil health and provide nutritious food contributing to human health. Several simple organic foliar sprays have several components similar to plant growth promoter substances in them. Vermiwash is one such excellent liquid fertiliser. Studies by our team have revealed the presence of growth promoting substances which invariably are associated with plant growth. There are about 3 isomers of indole compounds separated in Vermiwash; the 2-(4-methylphenyl) indolizine is an alkaloid which has a significant role in plant growth promotion, Maleic acid is a well established plant growth promoter, and Methyl 2-4(-tert-butylphenoxy) acetate belongs to the ring-substituted phenoxy aliphatic acids generally exhibiting a strong retarding effect on abscission and in turn promotes plant growth. Vermiwash by its instinctive quality might probably promote humification, increase microbial activity to produce plant growth promoting compounds and enzyme production.
