This study examines the effects of principals use of emotional intelligence in secondary schools of Isiala- Ngwa North Local Government Area of Abia State on the teachers ‘ job effectiveness. Four research questions and four hypotheses were drafted for the study. The sample consists 12 Principals and 60 teachers from Isiala-Ngwa North Local Government Area. Two instruments- unstructured interview (for the principals) and a researcher constructed questionnaire “Principals Emotional Intelligence and teachers effectiveness Questionnaire” (PEITEQ) were designed to collect data for the study. The results of the study showed that the principals do not employ emotional intelligence in the area of being self- aware, motivation, empathy and social skills, leading to teachers shabby time management skills; negative work attitude and their inability to prioritise their tasks. Recommendations such as aggressive publicity of emotional intelligence strategies to principals through training and ensuring the application of the management techniques by principals in the Local Government Schools through the use of emotional intelligence measurement scale in monitoring principal management skills were proffered to enable teachers become effective in their teaching/ learning duties.

The dilemma has deep roots as the attitudes of the rights organizations are shaped by their distinct histories, their ideological positions and practical grassroots realities. The paper argues that a policy of not condemning Naxalite violence by a significant number of rights organizations has severe implications for the rights movement in the country in terms of its autonomy and credibility, and its capacity to be effective. Instead of the cross, the Albatross About my neck was hung. —Samuel Coleridge The Indian Journal of Political Science Vol. LXVII, No. 4, Oct.-Dec., 2006 CHALLENGES TO THE UNITED NATIONS IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER Chaiulrakant Yatnoor It is not surprising that the UN with large number of members has difficulty in responding adequately to the emerging challenges and problems in the 21st century. But it cannot be denied that its response does make a real difference and it may be imperfect but it was not designed to take us to heaven but it would surely save us from another hell. Ultimately, it is a ship sailing in stormy waters. But it is unfair to blame the vessel for the storm (the emerging problems and challenges), which beset it. The UN is trying to cope with the world' problems, and in the last resort, it is the political will of the Member States which will determine our success in.

    Simultaneous Elections: a Sure Recipe for Democratic Disaster Sumit Howladar Abstract the Journey of India’S Democracy Has Been an Exciting and Remarkable One

    Simultaneous Elections: A Sure Recipe for Democratic Disaster Sumit Howladar Abstract The journey of India’s democracy has been an exciting and remarkable one. It has traversed several unchartered and difficult paths. Elections have been one of the core components and drivers behind this project of democratic expansion and consolidation. With changing times both the scale and mode of conducting elections have also changed drastically. While in the earlier years simultaneous elections of both the Lok Sabha and the State Assemblies took place, in the last fifty years this system became defunct. But recently the present incumbent government has pushed for renewing this system of conducting simultaneous elections. This paper argues that with the changed socio- political scenario revival of this system is not in the best interest of the nation’s democratic fabric. It highlights that the arguments put forward behind the desirability and feasibility of the said proposal largely based on faulty assumptions and lack sound argumentative base. Delving into the various layers of the issue, the paper underlines the core point that though on a technocratic level conducting simultaneous elections might seem highly appealing, but from a perspective of democratic fructification, this system is bound to prove regressive and counter-productive. Keywords: Simultaneous, Elections, Democracy, Constitution, Policy, Federal, Government 1. Introduction The idea of conducting simultaneous elections, interestingly, is not a new idea and was also a promise in Bharatiya Janata Party’s (hereafter BJP) party manifesto for the Lok Sabha elections held in 2014. The basic argument presented behind this idea is to save precious time which gets wasted in the process of repeated elections and instead devote it to actual developmental work.

    Public Accounts Committee

    PUBLIC ACCOUNTS COMMITTEE Introduction In a parliamentary democracy like ours, the Committee system assumes great importance. Administrative accountability to the legislature becomes the sine qua non of such a parliamentary system. The check that Parliament exercises over the executive stems from the basic principle that Parliament embodies the will of the people and it must, therefore, be able to supervise the manner in which public policy laid down by Parliament is carried out. However, the phenomenal proliferation of governmental activities has made the task of legislatures very complex and diversified. By its very nature, Parliament, as a body cannot have an effective control over the government and the whole gamut of its activities. Administrative accountability to the legislature through Committees has been the hallmark of our political system. The Committee on Public Accounts enjoys the place of pride in our Committee System. Genesis of the Committee The Committee on Public Accounts was first set up in 1921 in the wake of the Montague-Chelmsford Reforms. The Finance Member of the Executive Council used to be the Chairman of the Committee. The Secretariat assistance to the Committee was rendered by the then Finance Department (now the Ministry of Finance). This position continued right up to 1949. During the days of the Interim Government, the then Finance Minister acted as the Chairman of the Committee, and later on, after the attainment of Independence in August, 1947, the Finance Minister became the Chairman. This naturally restricted the free expression of views and criticism of the Executive. The Committee on Public Accounts underwent a radical change with the coming into force of the Constitution of India on 26 January, 1950, when the Committee became a Parliamentary Committee functioning under the control of the Speaker with a non-official Chairman appointed by the Speaker from among the Members of Lok Sabha elected to the Committee.
