Abstract: Purpose: The current research paper analyzes that in IT sector, how strategic practices based on Chanakya Niti influence stress management in the National Capital Region (NCR). The paper signifies the importance of classical strategic wisdom in the contemporary organizational setting in reaction to the increasing stress at the workplace precipitated by the technological demands and competitive work environment.
Methodology: A cross sectional and quantitative method was applied in this study. For data collection purpose, primary source like questionnaire was disseminated to gathered the significant information from 400 respondents which were utilized for statistical tests application as per the suitability of hypothesis. For assess the relations and check the effect of variables in this study, correlation and regression analysis were applied.
Findings: The results show that the strategic practices of Chanakya Niti are moderately implemented in IT organizations, and employee stress management is moderate, and the issue of burnout is still apparent. The correlation analysis has revealed that strategic practices and employee stress management have a strong positive relationship. Moreover, regression analysis proved that the practices based on Chanakya Niti have a statistically direct relation with the stress management of employees.
Practical Implications: The study shows that the old strategic concepts such as ethical governance, strategic foresight, emotional intelligence, and disciplined leadership can be applied to the new management practices by companies to benefit. Nonetheless, the practices must be supplemented with more extensive employee well-being programs, and supportive workplace policies.
Originality/Value: It offers a testimony on the applicability of traditional Indian strategic wisdom to the contemporary workplace issues, especially in managing employee stress in the IT industry.
Abstract: Based on in-depth case studies of forty students from all academic departments, this study offers a thorough qualitative examination of the admission experiences and satisfaction of students at Bangladesh University of Business and Technology (BUBT). This study finds important factors impacting admission decisions, student happiness, and retention intentions using NVivo 14 software for rigorous qualitative data analysis.
The results show a complicated paradox: although 90% of students selected BUBT mainly because of its reasonably priced tuition (20,000–25,000 BDT per semester), they also voiced serious discontent with the qualifications of the instructors, classroom conduct, bullying on Facebook, and subpar housing. With 92.5% of female students satisfied, the proctorial system was found to be the most favorable element. Nonetheless, 65% of students said they had witnessed or experienced instructor annoyance in the form of yelling, canceling classes, or acting insultingly, and 85% of students desired senior teachers with PhDs.
The fact that 80% of students said they would be willing to pay an additional 5,000–10,000 BDT per semester if BUBT hired internationally renowned PhD staff and addressed behavioral concerns with teachers is also remarkable. Additionally, 45% of students saw their institution rating as a direct advantage for their own careers, according to the report. Eight evidence-based recommendations, with projected implementation timescales ranging from immediate to two years, are included in the research's conclusion. These recommendations include urgent PhD faculty recruitment, teacher training programs, hostel expansion, and official Facebook group moderating.
Abstract: There have been numerous ways in which Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the educational process through its ability to deliver adaptive instruction, intelligent tutoring, feedback mechanisms, learning analytics, and learning through Generative AI. AI-driven personalized learning is able to provide personalized education for students, thus not only enhancing the academic achievements but also the processes involved in regulating and engaging in learning. Several studies have found that AI is able to facilitate self-regulated learning (SRL), depending on the technological design, instructional context, length of intervention and level of teacher and learner participation (Zhu & Sari, 2026; Xu et al., 2026). The current paper focuses on the possible effect of AI-driven personalized learning on three related learner outcomes including self-regulated learning, academic engagement, and learning autonomy among secondary school students. This research brings together international literature along with Indian literature such as Babbar, Raju and Kumari’s studies regarding Generative AI and Learning Efficiency in the Indian educational setting. The structured research approach and quantitative method are introduced, and then illustrated with statistical findings. The literature indicates that personalisation through AI can be effective in terms of helping learners to monitor and regulate their activities; however, it will not help in case the dependence on technology becomes too high and there is no pedagogical scaffolding present. That is why the paper concludes in favour of human-centered approach and AI as a tool rather than substitution of teachers and cognitive processes.
Abstract: A mixed-methods field study in Cumilla District, Bangladesh, from October 2025 to February 2026 studies Khadi manufacture and community well-being. It also illustrates global market entry issues. Primary data came from 360 semi-structured artisan interviews, 8 64-person focus groups, 300 household surveys from five upazillas, and 120 hours of participant observation. This study analyzed qualitative data (1,847 coded references, 24 nodes/6 themes) using NVivo 14 and evaluated quantitative dichotomous outcomes (well-being, market access, and GI awareness) using Fisher's Exact Test, One-Proportion Z-Test, Point-Biserial Correlation, McNemar's Test, and Cohen's Kappa (?=0.87).Major findings indicate that 71.4% of craftsmen experience emotional fulfillment in Khadi production, with present artists reporting superior well-being than former craftspeople (WHO-5 mean: 68.3 vs. 52.1; OR=4.82, p<0.001). GI certification increased average monthly wages 28.4% (BDT 8,450–10,850), however 62% are below the national living wage. Young people's engagement decreased from 42% (2010) to 18% (p<0.001) due to limited opportunities and a dismal income outlook (67%). Only 12% of people have access to global markets, and digital literacy highly corresponds with export activity (r_pb=0.42, p<0.001). These findings help the Craft-Centered Marketing Methodology (CCMM) balance market integration and cultural continuity utilizing the "Story-Value-Connection" (SVC) framework for sustainable Khadi growth.

Abstract: Due to the absence of legal protection for property rights, live-in relationships continue to be socially stigmatised in India, especially in traditional groups. Property rights are usually valued by married couples, and live-in partnerships are not specifically recognised by Indian law. The difficulties that live-in couples encounter may be made worse by this lack of family support. Without legal recognition, issues pertaining to inheritance rights and child custody become complicated. Although it offers some protection against domestic abuse, the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act of 2005 can be difficult to apply and enforce. Partners can not have the same financial rights or job benefits as married spouses. Despite these challenges, perceptions about cohabitation are gradually shifting, especially among younger people and in urban areas. Comprehensive legislative reforms are necessary to address the socio-legal problems that cohabiting couples face and to provide them with adequate protection and rights.
