This study assesses the multifaceted socio-economic impacts of Solar Home Systems (SHS) on the remote community of Chingad, Surkhet. Employing a comprehensive research framework, we investigate the extent to which the adoption of SHS has influenced the livelihoods, economic activities, and social dynamics within the community. Through a combination of quantitative and qualitative methodologies, we analyzed the economic benefits, social empowerment, and environmental sustainability associated with the integration of solar energy. The limitations of the study included its focus on Chindgad-5, Surkhet. This research employed a descriptive-analytic approach within an exploratory research design. In the study area, a total of 386 households were included, with 188 utilizing solar energy in December 2023 AD from field observation. The research focused on a subset of 36 purposely selected solar home system users. Energy consumption patterns varied among ethnic groups and social classes, and universal electricity access was not observed in the study area. The study integrated both descriptive and exploratory elements to comprehensively address its objectives, utilizing a combination of primary and secondary data. For policymakers, development professionals, and other stakeholders engaged in sustainable energy projects in similar circumstances, the findings offer insightful information about the complex relationships that are present between solar technology and the local socioeconomic fabric. The study provides valuable insights for policymakers, energy planners, and development organizations working towards sustainable and inclusive energy solutions in rural Nepal. The successful integration of SHS not only addresses energy needs but also contributes to economic development and improved living conditions in off-grid communities.

2024-03-26T10:24:54+00:00

General self-efficacy refers to individuals' belief in their ability to manage their functioning and influence life events. It can be influenced by various factors such as personal achievements, observed experiences, encouragement, and emotional states. We aimed this study to examine the relationship between general self-efficacy and other demographic factors in predicting Grade Point Average (GPA) among college students. The power analysis indicated minimum of 385 data points for unknown population, however we followed the rules of thumb that more data equals better results. This cross-sectional survey involved 527 college students from the Kathmandu Valley, representing various age groups, genders, ethnicities, religious affiliations, marital statuses, residential locations, education levels, faculties, and years of study. We targeted only two colleges to collect the data; however, the online portal of data collection allowed students to provide the data from other institutions as well. Students were selected through opportunity sampling, and data were collected using the General Self-Efficacy Scale between September 8 and November 2, 2022. Our findings indicate no significant relationship between general self-efficacy and GPA. Ethnicity (Janajati), religion (Buddhists), education level (high school), faculty (management), and institution type (private) were identified as significant predictors of GPA, while gender, age, marital status, and residential location did not predict GPA. The study provides valuable insights into how demographic factors, rather than self-efficacy, influence academic performance, offering useful information for educational strategies aimed at improving student outcomes.

Allegorization of History in Burial at Sea

2024-05-06T06:12:06+00:00

The paper titled “Allegorization of History in Burial at Sea” investigates Khushwant Singh's novel as an allegorized history of post-independent India. Published in 2005, Singh's narrative intertwines the lives of fictional characters with historical figures. Using a combination of textual analysis and historical data, this study examines how Singh's portrayal of these characters serves as an allegorical representation of broader historical narratives. By analyzing the allegorical elements within the novel, the study reveals how Singh's fictionalization serves to critique the idealized images of prominent historical figures, such as Jawaharlal Nehru, and the socio-political dynamics of their time. The findings suggest that Singh's work offers a complex re-interpretation of historical events and figures, highlighting the intersection of fiction and history. The significance of this study lies in its contribution to the discourse on the allegorical nature of historical fiction. This research provides a comprehensive analysis of how fictional works can reshape our perceptions of historical reality.

Stolen Childhood and Desolate Future: On Child Marriage in Makwanpur's Chepang Community

2024-07-19T08:27:24+00:00

Child marriage remains a critical issue not only in Nepal but globally, predominantly affecting South Asia, Africa, and Latin America. In Nepal, the Terai region, rural areas, particularly among economically disadvantaged and Dalit communities, faces alarmingly high rates of child marriage. Main objective of this study is to investigate the causes and consequences of child marriage in the Chepang Community. This phenomenon is driven by poverty, social pressure to maintain ties, and the misconception that it offers protection. ADD Primary data has directly been taken from the Chepang community through interview, and Previous studies, book, articles, bulletin, journal are used as a secondary data. This paper employs qualitative research methods, including semi-structured interviews with twenty households and case studies involving two Chepang women, to explore the causes and consequences of child marriage in the study area. Its consequences are profound, directly impacting girls' health and education. Many girls drop out before completing primary education due to domestic responsibilities like cooking and household chores. Early pregnancies, despite physical immaturity, contribute to high maternal and child mortality rates. The statement effectively highlights the multifaceted issue of child marriage in the Chepang community, touching on key factors such as socio-cultural norms, purity, economic pressures, and educational limitations. It also emphasizes the negative impacts of early marriage on health, education, and economic independence, reinforcing cycles of poverty and gender inequality. The proposed solutions education, legal enforcement, awareness, and promoting gender equality are crucial for addressing this issue. However, a deeper exploration of specific interventions tailored to the Chepang community's context could further strengthen the argument.

2024-08-13T15:01:09+00:00

Proficiency in request strategies is key in handling social hierarchies and managing interpersonal communication. It is also essential in reducing misunderstandings and enhancing communication efficiency in both educational and professional settings. This quantitative survey investigated the request strategies employed by graduate students in different hierarchical contexts. The sample population consisted of 100 B.Ed. (Bachelor of Education) major English students from ten campuses affiliated to Tribhuvan University (TU). The data was collected using a structured questionnaire with nine closed-ended questions. The data was analyzed using statistical method. The result revealed distinct patterns in request strategies when addressing individuals of varying ranks. In higher-to-lower rank scenarios, male respondents predominantly used mood derivable strategies, while females showed a preference for performatives and hedge performatives. For equal-to-equal rank situations, males favored direct mood derivable strategies, while females used a more varied approach with higher incidences of indirect strategies. In lower-to-higher rank contexts, males again showed a preference for direct approaches, whereas females exhibited a higher use of indirect and polite strategies. These findings highlight significant gender-based differences in communication strategies which emphasize the need for personalized approaches in educational and professional settings.

Emotional Intelligence as a Strategic Driver of Competitive Advantage and Service Quality in the Banking Industry

2024-10-20T13:16:30+00:00

This research aims to determine whether emotional intelligence (EI), particularly in government-owned commercial banks, is a valid measure of service quality in the banking sector. The study aims to ascertain how emotional intelligence (EI) raises the caliber of services, with a particular emphasis on the departments of operations, credit, and customer service. Using a quantitative methodology, data were collected through purposive sampling from 284 employees in particular bank branches in Kathmandu. The findings show that emotional intelligence (EI) and service quality are highly correlated. Workers with higher EI are more adept at managing their emotions, positively relating to clients, and offering superior customer service. Self-awareness, social awareness, and relationship management are crucial in enhancing service quality, with relationship management exerting the most significant influence. The study's limited scope focusing only on government-owned banks in a particular area may restrict its applicability opening up new avenues for future studies on emotional intelligence in private banking and other sectors of the economy.

Avian fauna provide a variety of functions, including predators, pollinators, scavengers, seed dispersers, pests controller, nutrient cycling, ecosystem engineers, and many others. Birds play important ecological and economic functions however they are sometimes overlooked simply because of a lack of knowledge. However, as bird populations drop globally, so do the ecological advantages given by these species. To support bird conservation, this review study focuses on the role of birds in the agro-ecosystem and their benefits to humans. Biodiversity databases and existing literature were reviewed to establish baseline information on farmland bird species and their preferences. Searches were limited to articles published between 2005 to 2024. Healthy bird populations and habitats would help to safeguard a variety of ecological functions, ultimately benefiting human health. Farmland birds are disappearing. Due to the widespread use of pesticides, lack of habitat, birds and other animals are disappearing and unnecessary harmful pest species are increasing and the agricultural environment is deteriorating. So, this review paper tries to emphasize on urgent conservation measures that are necessary for the protection of agricultural birds which are essential for the health of both natural and agricultural environments.

Privatization in Education: Myths versus Reality in the Nepalese Context

2024-10-20T13:38:56+00:00

This paper explores the history of privatization in education in Nepal with the aim of exposing its multilayered negative impacts in different sectors of the country. Critiquing on the different illusions created by those supporting this privatization, an attempt is made to unfold its ugly reality and the way it corrupts different state mechanisms. The irony is that outwardly privatization seems to be playing a positive role for enhancing the quality of education as well as creating job opportunities. But in reality, it is playing a crucial role for the degradation of the quality of education and promoting exploitation in different forms. Moreover, privatization in education is corrupting the mentality of our youth and creating such a social environment where money is regarded as everything. Increased expenditure of people in basic needs like education and health has increased the pressure of earning that ultimately leads to corruption. The money earned from private institutions is being used to make state mechanisms failure. This paper concludes that the privatization of education is the source of multiple problems Nepalese society is facing at present. Therefore, the decision of privatization in education needs to change with critical understanding of the myths created by the supporters of privatization for a better society. This research paper can be helpful for those who are working in the field of education.
