In the current study, the effects of exogenously applied proline (25 and 50 mM) and low-temperature treatment were examined on the physiochemical parameters in the plants of two cultivars (V1 and V2) of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.). The seeds were also exposed to chilling stress at 4 °C before sowing. Plants raised from the seeds treated with low temperature showed reduced plant growth and contents of chlorophyll and carotenoids, but they had significantly increased contents of malondialdehyde, proline, ascorbic acid, total free amino acids, total soluble sugars, and total phenolics, as well as the activity of the peroxidase (POD) enzyme. Cold stress applied to seeds remained almost ineffective in terms of bringing about changes in plant root, hydrogen peroxide, glycine betaine and activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT) enzymes. The exogenous application of proline significantly increased plant growth, the contents of chlorophyll, carotenoids, proline, ascorbic acid, total free amino acids, phenolics, and total soluble sugars, as well as the activities of SOD, POD, and CAT, but it decreased malondialdehyde content. Overall, foliar application of proline was better than the seed treatment in improving root dry weight, root length, chlorophyll a, carotenoids, glycine betaine, ascorbic acid and superoxide dismutase activity, whereas seed pre-treatment with proline was effective in improving shoot dry weight, shoot length, hydrogen peroxide, malondialdehyde, and peroxidase activity in both quinoa cultivars.

This research paper aims to describe environmental crime as the most significant apprehension of ecocriticism. The study explores the influences of environmental crime on nature and inhabitants who suffered just because of the scientific experiments done by outsiders. The research also brings into focus the continuous so struggle of indigenous people for eco-justice against this eco crime, which is analyzed through an eco-critical lens. Laura Westra introduced the term ‘Green Politics’ to illustrate how developing countries are ecologically imperialized by developed countries. Indra Sinha, in his novel Animal’s People, represents the unwanted changes in society that make people hollow and helpless. The study focuses on the ecological violence in India by outsiders and the endless efforts of Indian people to question environmental justice. The research is a contribution to the field of Ecocriticism which points out environmental degradation and its impacts on the lives of human beings resulting from Industrialization.

The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between stigma and survivor’s productivity. Earlier studies show that stigma has a negative impact on survivor’s productivity. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to examine and provide satisfactory justification of relationship among stigma and organizational support on survivors’ productivity. Methodology of the study is quantitative with the survey as a main research strategy. 250 Questionnaire was distributed along with employees of Telecom industry of Pakistan. Data was analyzed using SPSS regression and beta analysis. The findings suggest that there is negative relationship between stigma and survivor’s because stigma creates negative effects. But POS is moderating the negative relation of stigma and survivors. Future research could be conducted on the some other variables such as Training, Knowledge management, Procedural justice these can be studied during stigma on survivor’s productivity. Key words: Stigma; perceived organizational support; survivor productivity;

The study aims to expose the capitalist components behind the metabolic rift and economic issues that Kamala Markandaya's novel Nectar in a Sieve (1954) creates. Additionally, this study sheds light on the commodification, objectification, and commodity fetishism of commodities, as well as alienation, degradation due to differences in exchange value and use value, and the alienation of land and labour due to capitalism. This study explains how capitalism emerged, how people suffered and experienced mental unrest, and how the author ultimately felt a need to accept modernity and change (emergence with capitalism). It also foresees the transition from rural to urban life, the emergence of the pure past into the capitalist present, and the eventual glimmer of hope.
