Volume 1 on Stage/ Off Stage
lives of the women Volume 1 On Stage/ Off Stage Edited by Jerry Pinto Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media Supported by the Laura and Luigi Dallapiccola Foundation Published by the Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media, Sophia Shree B K Somani Memorial Polytechnic, Bhulabhai Desai Road, Mumbai 400 026 All rights reserved Designed by Rohan Gupta be.net/rohangupta Printed by Aniruddh Arts, Mumbai Contents Preface i Acknowledgments iii Shanta Gokhale 1 Nadira Babbar 39 Jhelum Paranjape 67 Dolly Thakore 91 Preface We’ve heard it said that a woman’s work is never done. What they do not say is that women’s lives are also largely unrecorded. Women, and the work they do, slip through memory’s net leaving large gaps in our collective consciousness about challenges faced and mastered, discoveries made and celebrated, collaborations forged and valued. Combating this pervasive amnesia is not an easy task. This book is a beginning in another direction, an attempt to try and construct the professional lives of four of Mumbai’s women (where the discussion has ventured into the personal lives of these women, it has only been in relation to the professional or to their public images). And who better to attempt this construction than young people on the verge of building their own professional lives? In learning about the lives of inspiring professionals, we hoped our students would learn about navigating a world they were about to enter and also perhaps have an opportunity to reflect a little and learn about themselves. So four groups of students of the post-graduate diploma in Social Communications Media, SCMSophia’s class of 2014 set out to choose the women whose lives they wanted to follow and then went out to create stereoscopic views of them. -

Growth of Parsi Population India: Demographic Perspectives
Unisa et al Demographic Predicament of Parsis in India Sayeed Unisa, R.B.Bhagat, and T.K.Roy International Institute for Population Sciences, Mumbai, India Email: [email protected] www.iipsindia.org Paper presented at XXVI IUSSP International Population Conference 27 September to 2 October 2009 Marrakech 1 Unisa et al Demographic Predicament of Parsis in India Sayeed Unisa, R.B.Bhagat, and T.K.Roy International Institute for Population Sciences, Mumbai E-mail: [email protected] The Parsi community in India is perhaps the only community outside Europe to have experienced dramatic population and fertility decline. This indicates that a country that is experiencing high population growth can also have communities that have different kinds of demographic patterns. Parsis are a small but prosperous religious community that maintained some sort of social isolation by practising endogamy and not accepting any new converts to their faith. Their population started declining since 1941 and the explanations that are put forth pertain to the issues of under- enumeration, fertility decline and emigration. In this paper, the relative importance of these factors in the light of 2001 Census is examined. This study demonstrates that the unprecedented fall in fertility among Parsis is the prime contributor to its declining population size. Also in this paper, the population of Parsis is projected up to the year 2051. 2 Unisa et al INTRODUCTION Parsis are perhaps the only community which had experienced dramatic population and fertility decline outside Europe (Coale, 1973; Coale and Watkin, 1986). This indicates that in a country that is experiencing high population growth can also have communities, which amazingly have different kinds of demographic pattern (Axelrod, 1990; Lorimer, 1954). -

Shah1 Lancy Lobo2 Shashikant Kumar3 USE Abstract At the Census of India, 1881, the former princely state of Baroda published data for every village and town, called Dehzado. After presenting the general demo- graphy of Baroda state, this article presents an analysis of data on caste, tribe and religion. It provides classification of villages and towns by the number of castes and tribes found in them, and discusses the issues posed by them, especially the issue of single-caste villages. This article describes the horizontal spread of various castes, tribes and religiousCOMMERCIAL minorities and points out its implications. In the end, it discusses the problem of urbanisation, classifying the towns by ethnic groups found in them. FOR Keywords Baroda state, caste, Census of India, Dehzado, demography, Gujarat, religion, rural–urban relations,NOT tribe Introduction This is a work in historical sociology of the former princely state of Baroda in Gujarat, based on records of the Census of 1881.

' a Project on the Supply Chain
‘A PROJECT ON THE SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT OF NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES ‘ To be submitted to Arni University for the degree of BBA (Bachelor for Business Administration) By Udayini Kochhar AEBB0004A/10 ARNI UNIVERSITY KATHGARH INDORA HIMACHAL PRADESH ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I wish to acknowledge my sincere thanks to, Mr. Vishal Sharma (Sen. Manager, Bennett, Coleman & Co. Ltd.), for his valuable Co-operation and guidance for the preparation of this project. SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT OF NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES : This project is on supply chain management of newspapers and magazines Supply chain management is the oversight of materials, information, and finances as they move in a process from supplier to manufacturer to wholesaler to retailer to consumer. Supply chain management involves coordinating and integrating these flows both within and among companies. It is said that the ultimate goal of any effective supply chain management system is to reduce inventory while maintaining necessary product availability. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT: This project has been made on the topic, SUUPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT OF NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES. I have made this project report after undergoing summer training in The Times Of India for a period of 45 days. Every day my work in this training was to meet atleast 30 customers daily and convince them to subscribe for the Times Of India newspaper and their various magazines. We used to be allotted different areas everyday for marketing by our senior heads, and they explained to us the various schemes being offered by Times Of India on their products that we had to market. We visited these areas from 8 am to 11 am and then from 5 pm to 7.30 pm as during these hours people are usually in their houses.
