Mahratta is a national journal that provides an multidisciplinary forum for the academicians and research scholars.

New Media & Society engages in critical discussions of the key issues arising from the scale and speed of new media development, drawing on a wide range of disciplinary perspectives and on both theoretical and empirical research.New technology has brought on new skills, new gatekeepers, and new game plans. What has yet to catch up is education to understand how the new communication works, its risks and opportunities, privileges and responsibilities.Hence we have focussed mainly on new media in this issue of Mahratta. It also has variety of articles and papers on History , Nursing , Law and Management.

CONCLUSION The overall experience of conducting this study was satisfying one, as there was good response of cheek & lip stimulation setting for the study. The study was a new learning experience for the investigator. It has been observed that pretest knowledge average mean score is 11.6 and practice score is 7.8 after stimulation average score rises to 11.6 respectively. This indicates that the knowledge and practice grades improved after stimulation. After comparison cheek & lip stimu- lation p-value not significant (less than 0.05) hypothesis is rejected.
