    Influence of Chemicals and Plant Bioregulators Application during the Time of Fruit Developmental Phenophase on Fruit Weight, Quality and Shelf-life of Mango (Mangifera indica. L)
    (Ms. M. B. Mondal, 2023-11) Gangadhar, B.; Krishna, GV; Kumar, TS; Harshitha, DN; Bhasker, K.
    The present study was conducted to know the influence of chemicals and plant bioregulators application during the time of fruit developmental phenophase on fruit weight, quality and shelf-life of Mango (Mangifera indica. L) at the fruit research station, Aswaraopet, Telangana, India during the 2022- 23. Among chemicals and plant bioregulators maximum fruit retention percentage (16.851 %), TSS (14.901 °Brix), total sugars (12.999 %) and shelf life (15.034 days) were recorded with pre-harvest application of CPPU. Maximum ascorbic acid content (49.838 mg. 100 g-1), reducing sugars (4.277 %) and firmness (5.866 kg.cm-2) were recorded with pre-harvest application of Ca(NO3)2 whereas, minimum physiological loss in weight was recorded with the application of CPPU on 12th day (16.244 %). Among different time of chemicals and plant bio regulator application, maximum fruit retention percentage were recorded with chemicals and plant bio regulator applied at 703 phenophase, maximum shelf-life was recorded with the application of CPPU at 709 phenophase, minimum physiological loss in weight was recorded with the application of CPPU at 709 phenophase.

    Undergraduate Medicine Curriculum in India: Untying the Gordian knot
    (Department of Community Medicine, Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi- 221005, India., 2022-06) Suhas, S.; Gangadhar, B.; Vanikar, A. V.; Malik, Y.; Girish, N.; Kumar, V.; Math, S. B.
    The medical education system in India is one of the largest in the world. Therefore, the quality of Indian medical education and the physicians it produces has implications on public health at large. Change is the necessity of evolution and growth. In this article, we address the challenges Indian undergraduate medical education faces and attempt to address them. The steps suggested are delineation of goals and objectives of education based upon the need of the country, adoption of innovative digital-based synchronous and asynchronous teaching, both in-person and digital learning methodology (hybrid model), early introduction of clinical postings, family adoption program, shortening the course of MBBS, problem-based learning, adjustments in the course structure, updating of course content, rationalizing assessment strategy, and emphasis on structured and skill-oriented internship.
