KIIT Campus-1, P.S. - Infocity Bhubaneswar - 751 024 Dist. Khurda, Odisha With all humility, I would like to extend a hearty welcome to all the esteemed scientists and participants to the 105th session of Indian Science Congress to be held during 3-7 January, 2018 in the century old Osmania University, Hyderabad. When the world and the civilization today stand at a cross road, there could not have been a better theme for the session this year than 'Reaching the Unreached through Science and Technology'. It is indeed a matter to ponder over as to why, despite huge accomplishment in science and technology during this century, more than one-fourth of the world's population is still living in abject poverty with the gap between the rich and the poor still widening. Poverty, social and gender inequality are increasing globally, as a result of which a large chunk of population continue to remain isolated without having the minimum basic human needs. Contaminated drinking water due to lack of adequate sanitation resulting in various water borne diseases, lack of basic education, dismal records in the area of sustainable livelihood, security system, lack of effective strategy for eradication of poverty and many other issues combined together account for a situation in the world today that a large section of human beings continue to suffer. It is often argued that the poor are poor because they do not have the productive asset like land, education and technical skill. They earn their livelihood largely through unskilled works. Modern technological know-how is beyond their reach for which they suffer from a sense of exclusion from the scientific advancement. It is, therefore, most important today that the scientists through modern technology would strive to reach this hapless population for the creation of an equitable world. We are fortunate today that the present leadership in the country today has been trying to accelerate growth with inclusion and equality with action plans for employment generation strategies, universal access to quality health education, good governance, farmer centric issues in agriculture, connectivity through Digital India and allied sectors, sanitation through Swachha Bharat and Ganga rejuvenation, energy conservation, efficiency and innovative ideas including 'Make in India' through skill development besides many other plans of action. With such a proactive government at the helms of affairs, there should not be any problem for reaching the unreached and inclusion of the excluded by making them the important components of the science and technology policy and strategy for the coming decades. The 105th session of the Indian Science Congress is bound to draw the attention of the scientists, technocrats and all other stakeholders to think over how the formidable power of science and technology can bridge the gap between the rich and the poor and how to reach the unreached in creating equal opportunity for everyone to do away with poverty, hunger, ignorance and other evils which still block our ways in stepping into a new world of hope. I am reminded of a very pertinent question Gandhiji said to each one of us, “Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you have seen and ask yourself, if the steps you contemplate are going to be of any use to him. Will he gain anything by it. Will it restore to him control over his own life and destiny?” If the reply we get is 'YES' then we are in a changed world. As the General President of this august session, I take this opportunity to extend my warm welcome to each one of you to this great historic Pearl City of Hyderabad-the city of smiles, lights, lakes, gardens, great monuments and museums. There could not have been a better place for this session than India's techno savvy city of Hyderabad often described as Cyberabad. I feel privileged as the General President to extend my cordial invitation once again to each and every one who would be interested to contribute for the welfare of humanity through Science and Technology. Looking forward to meet you all in this great event, I remain with my best regards. Wishing you all a Very Happy New Year-2018. Prof. Achyuta Samanta General President The Indian Science Congress Association 4 Reaching the Unreached Through Science and Technology Welcome Message of the Vice Chancellor Prof. S. Ramachandram Vice-Chancellor Osmania University Hyderabad OSMANIA UNIVERSITY Osmania University takes pride in hosting the prestigious 105th Indian Science Congress during its centenary. On behalf of the Osmania community – faculty, non-teaching staff, scholars, students, alumni and other stakeholders, I extend a warm welcome to all the delegates, participants, policymakers, sponsors, exhibitors and media persons to the 105th Indian Science Congress being hosted by Osmania University, – one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the country. Hyderabad is proud to be hosting the Indian Science Congress for the seventh time. The 105th Indian Science Congress is the first for youngest state of the Union – Telangana State. The theme of this session ‘Reaching the unreached through Science and Technology’ emphasizes the value of taking science to each and every citizen of India. India has made unprecedented advances in myriad branches of sciences. It has carved its niche as an upcoming ‘science

    Indian Journal of Economics & Business, Special Issue China & India (2006) : 1-... HIGH TECHNOLOGY CLUSTERS IN INDIA AND CHINA: DIVERGENT PATHS SUSAN M. WALCOTT Georgia State University, Atlanta and JAMES HEITZMAN University of California, Davis The economic giants of Asia, India and China, encourage clusters of high technology companies to fuel their national economic development drives, but the paths of these neighbors follow divergent trajectories due to different interconnections between government policy and business strategy. Based on field research, economic data and targeted case studies, this article explores the impact of regional political agency, technology infrastructure (unconnected versus integrated), the central government (hands-off versus highly involved), private capital (large versus negligible), and foreign direct investment. The picture emerging from each countrys profile allows assessment of short and long-term change for these urban clusters. 1. THE TECHNOPOLE AND ASIAN URBANIZATION A growing body of multi-disciplinary scholarship focuses on technopoles: dynamic clusters of research and production organizations generating rapid employment growth within innovative sectors, forming an important component of public policy. The technopole effect - encompassing spin-offs from co-located science or business parks, the segregated enclaves of privileged employees, attractive recreational amenities, and enabling infrastructure - produces a characteristic urban morphology within an emerging category of technology-based world cities. The transformed environments where the technopole effect occurs, often defined as corridors, signify a major component in urban policy that aims at the stimulation of services on the borders of former urban cores. A clear need exists for examining such spaces of human interaction, based on case studies of new urban developments offering possibilities for global application (Grant and Nijman 2002).

    Bharat Biotech Announces Successful Completion of Its Phase I/Ii Clinical Trial for 116E Rotavirus Vaccine

    BHARAT BIOTECH ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF ITS PHASE I/II CLINICAL TRIAL FOR 116E ROTAVIRUS VACCINE Press release dated: 28th May, 2008 The Indian Rotavirus Vaccine Development Project (RVDP) announced today encouraging results from a recent Phase I/II clinical trial of a live, natural reassortant, Oral Rotavirus Vaccine 116E (ORV 116E), conducted in New Delhi, India. RVDP is a collaborative effort with support and guidance from the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India; PATH; US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); Stanford University; US National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID); Society for Applied Studies; National Institute of Immunology, New Delhi; Indo-US Vaccine Action Program; All India Institute of Medical Sciences and Bharat Biotech International Limited. Rotavirus infections are the single largest cause of severe diarrheal disease among infants and children worldwide and cause more than 500,000 deaths in infants and children each year, with 90% of these deaths occurring in the world’s poorest countries. Rotavirus diarrhea causes more than 120,000 deaths in India alone. The Phase I/II trial was designed as a Double-blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Dose Escalating Study of ORV 116E in healthy non-malnourished infants 8-20 weeks of age with safety and immunogenicity as the primary and secondary objectives, respectively. The study was conducted by the Society for Applied Studies in New Delhi. The doses selected for administration were 104.0 and 105.0 FFU with reactogenicity, immunogenicity and viral shedding as the study endpoints. One-hundred and eighty-seven infants were enrolled for the 104.0 FFU dosage and 182 were enrolled for the 105.0 FFU dosage.

    Material for Study Visit of the Department - related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Science & Technology, Environment & Forests to Hyderabad on January 9, 2014 Ministry of Environment & Forests Govt. Of India Hyderabad General Hyderabad is the capital and largest city in Andhra Pradesh situated on the banks of the Musi River at coordinates of 17.366°N 78.476°E. It occupies 650 square kilometres (250 sq mi) and with a metropolitan population of near 8 million, it is fourth most populous city and sixth most populous urban agglomeration in India. In 1956, the Telangana region of Hyderabad State was merged with Andhra State to form the modern state of Andhra Pradesh, with Hyderabad city as its capital. Historically, Hyderabad was known for its pearl and di amond trading centres. Industrialisation brought major Indian manufacturing, research, and financial institutions to the city, such as the Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited, the Defence Research and Development Organisation, the National Remote Sensing Centre, the National Geophysical Research Institute, the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology and the National Mineral Development Corporation. The formation of an information technology (IT) Special Economic Zone s (SEZs) by the state agencies attracted global and Indian companies to set up operations in the city. The emergence of pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries and the formation of Genome Valley during the 1990s earned it the title "India's pharmaceutical capital". The city has 140 lakes and 834 water tanks. The main lakes include Husain Sagar, built in 1562 near the city centre, Osman Sagar and Himayat Sagar, which are artificial lakes created by dams on the Musi and these two reservoirs constitute the major drinking water source of Hyderabad city.

    The Amalgamation of Indo-Islamic Architecture of the Deccan

    Islamic Heritage Architecture and Art II 255 THE AMALGAMATION OF INDO-ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE OF THE DECCAN SHARMILA DURAI Department of Architecture, School of Planning & Architecture, Jawaharlal Nehru Architecture & Fine Arts University, India ABSTRACT A fundamental proportion of this work is to introduce the Islamic Civilization, which was dominant from the seventh century in its influence over political, social, economic and cultural traits in the Indian subcontinent. This paper presents a discussion on the Sultanate period, the Monarchs and Mughal emperors who patronized many arts and skills such as textiles, carpet weaving, tent covering, regal costume design, metallic and decorative work, jewellery, ornamentation, painting, calligraphy, illustrated manuscripts and architecture with their excellence. It lays emphasis on the spread of Islamic Architecture across India, embracing an ever-increasing variety of climates for the better flow of air which is essential for comfort in the various climatic zones. The Indian subcontinent has produced some of the finest expressions of Islamic Art known to the intellectual and artistic vigour. The aim here lies in evaluating the numerous subtleties of forms, spaces, massing and architectural character which were developed during Muslim Civilization (with special reference to Hyderabad). Keywords: climatic zones, architectural character, forms and spaces, cultural traits, calligraphic designs. 1 INTRODUCTION India, a land enriched with its unique cultural traits, traditional values, religious beliefs and heritage has always surprised historians with an amalgamation of varying influences of new civilizations that have adapted foreign cultures. The advent of Islam in India was at the beginning of 11th century [1]. Islam, the third great monotheistic religion, sprung from the Semitic people and flourished in most parts of the world.
