This current study dove into the relationship between emotional regulation, anxiety, and procrastination among adolescents. Research has hinted before that difficulties in coping or regulating emotions and anxiety could lead to avoidant habits, which include procrastination. However, not enough studies have been conducted that examine these variables in conjunction with a younger population. Participants (N=21) varied from middle schoolers all the way up to college students, and they completed a self-report questionnaire which assessed aspects of emotional regulation, anxiety, and procrastination using Likert-type scales, which were sent out through Google Forms. The correlational analysis that was performed showed a moderate positive relationship between anxiety and procrastination (r=53). This suggests that greater procrastination tendencies were associated with higher levels of anxiety. On the other hand, emotional regulation showed a weaker correlation when compared to procrastination (r = .09), and a moderate positive relationship with anxiety (r = .38). These discoveries support the hypothesis built that while emotional regulation didn’t directly have an impact on procrastination in this sample, anxiety did play a big role in affecting procrastination habits among adolescents. The findings prove the importance of addressing anxiety in educational / mental health interventions to improve academic behavior in adolescents. 

This research investigates the United Kingdom’s recent tax policy changes, particularly the freezing of income tax thresholds and the introduction of a tiered corporation tax system. Using the Laffer Curve framework, the study explores whether these measures optimise revenue without discouraging economic activity. It also assesses the impact on investment, migration, and business confidence. Drawing on international comparisons, the paper highlights the delicate balance between tax competitiveness and public finance sustainability. The findings suggest that while current policies yield fiscal gains in the short term, they risk long-term economic drawbacks if not managed transparently and predictably. 

Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) poses a growing public health challenge in India, where its prevalence continues to rise at an alarming rate. Over recent decades, India has observed a sharp rise in diabetes prevalence, with national rates increasing alongside earlier age of onset. This trend not only highlights the scale of the burden but also raises important questions about the hereditary basis of Type 2 Diabetes. Understanding its development is especially important in the South Asian context, where complex interactions between genetics, environment and lifestyle create unique patterns of risk. This review explores current evidence on the drivers of T2D, with attention to how both biological and socio-cultural influences shape susceptibility. 

Deliberative democracy is often seen as a necessary complement to electoral democracy yet its ability to ensure the inclusive representation of female voices, especially in rural areas of the Global South, remains limited. This paper casts light on the Indian Mahila Sabhas, understudied female-only deliberation platforms, introduced in the world’s largest democratic system. It addresses the gap where empirical solutions to women’s involvement are often overlooked in favour of theoretical discussions in scholarship on deliberative democracy. As seen in the case study of Mahila Sabhas, females are often compelled to form femaleonly forums to ensure that gender-responsive policies are being catered towards. However, it calls for further research into comparative femaleonly frameworks and into their practical implementation in deliberative democracies highlighting both its benefits as well as limitations. 

Drinking water is one of the most important resources, making its efficient management a vital necessity in not just workplaces and hospitality venues but also in every single household. In Indian homes, water filtration systems ensure clean and safe drinking water, yet they have one disadvantage -they require frequent manual maintenance for day-to-day functioning. Inefficiencies such as water wastage, overflows, and dry tank scenarios can disrupt filtration performance and impact pump functionality. Despite advancements in technology, accessible and cost-effective automation solutions remain limited. This project aims to solve such challenges by developing an automated water level sensing and control system using Arduino-UNO. The system integrates a control module to monitor and regulate water levels dynamically, optimizing filtration efficiency while minimizing tedious and costly maintenance services. This paper details the system’s design, implementation, functionality, and demonstrates its potential to enhance the system. 

My project is an animatronic claw that can be controlled via Bluetooth. This robot can help less abled people with tasks that they struggle to complete as it is easy and efficient to use. The robot is lightweight, affordable and straightforward. It provides a service for those in need and proves itself to be an excellent aid to people worldwide. The robot connects through Bluetooth to any household device with the application “Dabble” and is maneuvered by a keypad with 8 buttons, each moving the arm in a different. The robot stands on a board to ensure stability and can be easily transported as it is powered by a power bank. This way, people who may have trouble moving their arms can control a fully functioning claw with a 360° reach through a simple keypad, thus lessening the movement required, and simplifying their lives.
