District Need Assessment Jankidevi Bajaj Gram Vikas Sanstha (JBGVS) is a Bajaj Auto powered NGO that has been involved in implementing Integrated Rural Development Programs (IRDP) in villages with the objective of improving the quality of people’s lives. JBGVS works in selected villages of 5 districts namely, Pune, Aurangabad, Wardha districts of Maharashtra; Sikar district of Rajasthan and Udham Singh Nagar district of Uttarakhand. For JBGVS, needs assessment for a district is important because it will help the organization in understanding the needs that are preventing the district from reaching near its ideal condition/state in terms of availability of resources and stable overall development of the community. Need assessment is a series of activities that can help the researchers at all levels to find, perceive and solve the issues prevailing in that region. It is defined as the structured scrutiny of the gap that exists between the current and the desired state. It is the most important step in order to bring about an effective social change.

Hybrid model for customer behavioural mining

Data mining is the study of data and the utility of software techniques for finding patterns and regularities in sets of data. The main reason behind the paper is to examine the exhibition of an existing client in order to the churning prediction to actualize bunching with the characterization expectation model including weighted K-means clustering with the Neural system. To assess and break down the exhibition based on exactness, accuracy, review, root means square mistake and to analyze the presentation of the proposed strategy with the current cross breed strategies. For this reason, numerous algorithms have been proposed to anticipate churning clients. In the proposed work, Decision Tree and Neural systems are utilized to break down the examples from the dataset and to hybrid the model for customer behavioral mining. As per the current system, both the K-means and Neural system have been utilized either independently or with the other mix too. It was seen that every procedure will give better outcomes. However, the issue that has been engaged in the investigation is to upgrade the k-implies calculation. A weighted K-means is used to improve the exactness of the classifier and utilized to distinguish agitate clients and compelling promoting systems. Now, these days customers for seeking satisfaction shifts from one homogeneous product to another termed as customer churning which is proposed through various techniques through this paper.

A Study of CSR as an antipoverty instrument

This paper mentions the comparative study of various CSR activities of a few of the top companies in India and their fight against poverty in the country. This research is based on how CSR can be used to eliminate poverty, what the scope of the project is, and the contribution of the companies in developing the poor local communities. The aim of this study is to start to fill the gap in our understanding of how, when and through what means the business can help to reduce poverty while recognizing the equally powerful potential of the business community to exacerbate poverty. Taking particular CSR initiatives as a starting point, we seek to look at the broader developmental footprint of business-as-usual strategies, as well as those which fall under the banner of CSR, to gain a fuller picture of how business is implicated in the development process. This paper focuses on the type and nature of the CSR activities of MNCs in their attempt to eliminate poverty.

A review on integrating intrusion detection model using classifiers and chi-square feature selection

With the increasing use of IT technologies for maintaining the information, there is huge need for stronger intrusion detection mechanisms. The old usages like firewalls are not much so effective there are few new techniques that are used for the detection of intrusions. The various techniques of Intrusion Detection have been studied briefly. The main aim of this paper is to increase the accuracy with maximum and decrease with fewer false alarms. Also concern about reducing the disadvantages of the present IDS for large data. The intrusions enter the systems without any allowances to replicate files and running pirated software’s on their own to access systems and takes the very much confidential data like sensitive information. Intrusion detection can take care of the systems and if something suspicious happens the prompt will be given and monitored.
