Item Open Access Save Rivers : An interactive website for Betwa Utthan organization in Vidisha (M.P)(Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2022) Agarwal, Anusha; Mazumdar, MadhumitaIn our present time the river pollution is one of the biggest problems in our world. It�s mainly because of illegal dumping, industrialization and agriculture. Moreover, the people don�t know how to treat their sewage waste and dispose of it in a safe way. Almost all rivers nowadays start to suffer from this problem. Differences between the past, right now and the future may be big. If we compared our mind now with that of forty years ago we would see that they were more different than they are now. This is because urbanization and spreading of civilization has enabled us to obtain facilities which were not present in the past. Though these facilities have made life easier for us, there are some changes which are not positive because they have caused problems to our environment. It has been a problem for decades, but it has become more common as more people move closer to river sources. Water pollution occurs when harmful chemicals or substances such as oil, bacteria, or radiation enter water. If these contaminants are not removed from the water supply, they can cause serious health problems. The main reason why we are polluting our rivers is lack of awareness. Our society is so much dependent on our rivers that they have become a part of our lifestyle, but we aren't aware of the fact that we need to take proper care and attention of these precious resources. There are many solutions to this problem such as educating people about this matter, setting up more recycling centers around big cities or nearrivers etc. These solutions may change people�s attitudes towards water pollution if implemented well enough. The Betwa river in Madhya Pradesh, India is one of the major tributaries of the Yamuna .The river was once clean and pure but it is no more so. The problem is that using the river in this manner has had a huge impact on the health of the river because instead of objects made largely of mud and stone, today we use ceramic, plaster of paris, and plastic which do not break down as easily in the river.Item Open Access Cultural history of Hyderabad : An illustrated storybook for Children(Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology, 2022) Teja, P. Pavan; Desai, BinitaIn every corner of the country, India is a land of varied cultures and religions, as well as a rich cultural past. Hyderabad, also known as the 'city of pearls' or 'city of gardens' which was originally ruled by the Nawabs, is a heritage site with more than a 400-year history including many stories about architecture, culture, festivals, traditions and people. In order to preserve the literature and teach future generations about their legacy, it is necessary to relay these stories and cultural history to future generations.identified that the reality of these stories of the city Hyderabad or its history and cultural traditions not reaching the younger generation, through my initial observations and informal interactions with current generation children about the topic related to the Hyderabad and its cultural history. After conducting an extensive online search and review for an existing documentation (documentaries, movies, and literature) on the history of Hyderabad and its culture, nothing noteworthy was discovered that was either easier to read and understand by the younger children or that was published in the form of a simple detailed novel about a specific topic which is suitable for children's learning. I also failed to find any videographic documentation in the form of movies, short film and documentary which is focused on the Hyderabad city and its cultural history.As a result, children's direct access to the knowledge and information about Hyderabad's culture, traditions and history is limited, making it more difficult for them to learn. Therefore, I came to the conclusion that there is a clear need to communicate and introduce the cultural past of Hyderabad to the younger generations as part of their early learning phase in order to educate the further generations and also preserve the known cultural history of the city. This can also serve as a benchmarking platform for many other artists, writers, poets, and directors to use the topic of Hyderabad's cultural tradition and history as an inspiration and encouragement for creating new paintings, short stories,novels, poems, songs, movies, short films, and documentaries in the coming months and years.
