The Basic Savings Bank Deposit Account (BSBDA) is a RBI mandated savings product that provides to the customer facilities of (i) unlimited credit, (ii) four debits every month, (iii) zero minimum balance, and (iv) no service charges. With more than one-third of the savings bank accounts being BSBDAs, the banks have done a remarkable job for opening...

Contamination of water bodies by pharmaceuticals has recently received much attention. Even at low concentration, pharmaceuticals can disrupt the natural hormonal responses (endocrine disruptors) leading to a multitude of toxicological effects in aquatic life. In the current study, the estrogenic effect of selected pharmaceuticals was evaluated usi...
Contamination of water by pesticides is an alarming ecological problem. Pesticides are majorly used in agriculture for maximizing crop production and in public health for vector control. This has resulted in accumulation of these toxic substances in waterbodies. Such extensive use is highly detrimental to the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem. Pest...

The objective of this note is to highlight the true features of a significant regulation put in place by RBI on levy of penal charges for non-maintenance of minimum balance in savings bank accounts. Banks have been given freedom to prescribe their minimum balance requirements in normal savings bank accounts. However, there are certain far reaching ...

Many cellular events including electrical activity and muscle contraction are regulated and coordinated by intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](i)). In detrusor smooth muscle (DSM) cells, [Ca2+](i) is normally maintained at very low levels and rises transiently during signalling processes as a result of (i) influx from the extracellular space (...
Symbolic trajectory evaluation (STE) is a model checking technique that has been successfully used to verify many industrial designs. Existing implementations of STE reason at the level of bits, allowing signals in a circuit to take values from a lattice comprised of three elements: 0, 1, and X. This limits the amount of abstraction that can be ach...
