Behavorial Change and Hiv/Aids in Northern India
Factors Influencing Age at First Sexual Intercourse, Number of Partners and Condom Use among Male Slum Youth in Pune India Rukmini Potdar Michael A. Koenig Kristin Mmari Rukmini Potdar was a Mellon Post-doctoral Fellow, Department of Population and Family Health Sciences, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, MD Michael A. Koenig is an Associate Professor, Department of Population and Family Health Sciences, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, MD Kristin Mmari is an Assistant Scientist, Department of Population and Family Health Sciences, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, MD 1 ABSTRACT In India, more than one third of the estimated two and a half million people infected with AIDS are in the 15 to 29-year old age group. However, limited information exists on the factors that influence sexual initiation and other related sexual behaviors among adolescents. Even less is known about the factors that influence sexual behaviors among young, unmarried males living in urban slums, a population characterized by high vulnerability to STI/HIV infections due to their engagement in sexual and other risk behaviors. To fill in these large gaps of knowledge, this study uses data collected from 900 unmarried male slum youth to examine the relationships between sexual initiation, number of sexual partners, and condom use at first intercourse and factors within the family/household social environment, peer environment, as well as individual-level factors. Regression analyses found factors such as religion/caste, parental and respondent education, parental supervision, experience of physical abuse and peer drinking to significantly impact the age of sexual initiation and the subsequent number of life time partners. -

Youth Development in India: Does Poverty Matter? Bijaya Kumar Malik*
Malik SpringerPlus (2015) 4:613 DOI 10.1186/s40064-015-1410-z RESEARCH Open Access Youth development in India: does poverty matter? Bijaya Kumar Malik* Abstract This paper explores the differentials in youth development patterns determined by the economic condition of the household in India. The wealth index is used to glean youth development differentials in the different economic categories of the household. The findings suggest that youth from the bottom 20 per cent (poorest) of households are deprived in education, employment, labour force and are not working currently compared to youth from the middle and rich households. The states differ in youth development patterns (employment, appropriate education, skill development and awareness about health). There are more working youth among poor households than among rich households in India. Female youth are more disadvantaged compared to male youth and it is the same with the rural–urban distribution of youth. This paper concludes that the various economic categories/wealth index (poorest, poorer, middle, richer and richest) directly determine the pattern of youth development in India. Keywords: Youth development, Adolescence, Wealth index, Healthy lifestyle, Poverty Background and both adolescent and youth population comprise India has one of the highest adolescent (253 million) 40.1 per cent of the total population of India (Census of and youth populations in the world.

Analysis on Indian Power Supply Situation and Policies
IEEJ：July 2018 © IEEJ2018 Analysis on Indian Power Supply Situation and Policies National Expansion of Successful Electric Power Reform “Gujarat State Model” Jun Makita* Summary India features robust demand for the development of infrastructure including electric power and is expected to drive the world economy as a manufacturing base and a giant market. However, about 240 million people, close to one-fifth of the Indian population, live without electric power. Blackouts are frequent, indicating an unstable electric power supply environment. Narendra Modi, who was elected India’s 18th prime minister in May 2014, has vowed to supply electric power 24 hours a day, seven days a week, indicating his determination to promote domestic electric power development. Cited as the largest factor behind his election as prime minister are an electric power reform and other successful policies in Gujarat state when he served as the state’s chief minister from 2001 to 2014. Particularly, the electric power reform is called the Gujarat state model, gaining high ratings. In response to people’s strong wish to see the expansion of the reform’s fruits throughout India, Prime Minister Modi is now tackling the national expansion of the reform. Stable power supply is such an important policy challenge supporting national development. In this paper, Chapter 1 reviews India’s present situation and future outlook regarding economy, energy, electric power supply and demand, and an existing supply-demand gap. Chapter 2 summarizes India’s present electric power business arrangements, power supply conditions and numerous challenges facing India. Chapter 3 analyzes the Gujarat state model cited in the subtitle, delving into the electric power reform that Modi as chief minister of Gujarat state promoted to eliminate blackouts and into the reform’s fruits such as electric power quality improvements. -
Republic of Korea Bilateral Relations
India – Republic of Korea Bilateral Relations India-Republic of Korea (RoK) relations has made great strides in recent years and has become truly multidimensional, spurred by a significant convergence of interests, mutual goodwill and high level exchanges. Bilateral consular relations were established in 1962 which was upgraded to Ambassador-level in 1973. In course of time, RoK's open market policies found resonance with India's economic liberalization and 'Look East Policy' as well as “Act East Policy”. Consistent Indian support for peaceful reunification of the two Koreas has been well received in this country. According to "SamgukYusa" or "The Heritage History of the Three Kingdoms" written in the 13th century, a Princess from Ayodhya (Suriratna) came to Korea, married King Kim-Suro, and became Queen Hur Hwang-ok in the year 48 AD [wife of former President Lee Myung-bak (Mrs. Kim Yoon-ok), former President Kim Dae-jung, former President Kim Young-sam and former PM Kim Jong-pil, inter alia, trace their ancestry to the royal couple]. Korean Buddhist Monk Hyecho (704–787 CE) or Hong Jiao visited India from 723 to 729 AD and wrote travelogue "Pilgrimage to the five kingdoms of India" which gives a vivid account of Indian culture, politics & society. The travelogue was rediscovered in China in 1908 and was subsequently translated into different languages, including Hindi, under the aegis of UNESCO. The original fragment is now owned by the National Library of France. Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore also composed a short but evocative poem – 'Lamp of the East' - in 1929 about Korea's glorious past and its promising bright future. -

Legal Status and Deprivation in India's Urban Slums

Nolan, David E. Bloom, and Ramnath Subbaraman March 2017 PGDA Working Paper No. 145 http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/pgda/working/ Research reported in this publication was supported by the National Institute on Aging of the National Institutes of Health under Award Number P30AG024409. The content is solely the responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily represent the official views of the National Institutes of Health. IZA DP No. 10639 MARCH 2017 ABSTRACT Legal Status and Deprivation in India’s Urban Slums: An Analysis of Two Decades of National Sample Survey Data* In India, 52–98 million people live in urban slums, and 59% of slums are “non-notified” or lack legal recognition by the government. In this paper, we use data on 2,901 slums from four waves of the National Sample Survey (NSS) spanning almost 20 years to test the hypothesis that non-notified status is associated with greater deprivation in access to basic services, thereby increasing vulnerability to poor health outcomes. To quantify deprivation for each slum, we construct a basic services deprivation score (BSDS), which includes variables that affect health, such as access to piped water, latrines, solid waste disposal, schools, and health centers. In a regression analysis, we find a robust association between non-notified status and greater deprivation after controlling for other variables. Our analysis reveals a progressive reduction in deprivation the longer a slum has been notified. -
