Religions like Hinduism, Christianity, Ancient Greeks and Aztecs and several other tribal groups around the globe have diverse cultural histories. But one mythical story has in common about the great deluge. Although these stories are different in detail of events or in specific plot, the premise remains remarkably the same. The recurring theme of flood and myths of a giant deluge constitute an underlying and important theme in all the classic literature as well as in oral tradition. Even Indian classical writings have evidence of flood myth narratives along with the primitive folkloric traditions, especially in the tribal minorities of central India. It can be seen by interpretation of certain characteristics of mythology that are almost universal and have a wide range of distribution and acceptance in all forms of societies. The purpose of this paper would be focusing specifically on the classical collection of flood myths. There would be an attempt on identifying and analyzing a plurality among classical flood myths by selecting the four flood myths from the perspective of great tradition and little tradition in which two are from great and two are from little traditions. Here I am focusing upon comparing and analyzing the deluge stories from Europe and India. By comparing the folklore stories of Bhil and Kamar deluge as little tradition and from great tradition Hindu and Judeo-Christian deluge. However, the original historical occurrence of events can be observed through the modification and enhancement in the myth from generation to generation.

Recently issues of women’s empowerment and participation in self help groups have gained grounds ... more Recently issues of women’s empowerment and participation in self help groups have gained grounds and are the centre stage in global development discourse. Despite the evidence of women’s accomplishment in a given realm of national and local level development, women’s empowerment today leaves very much to be desired. In attempts to improve and enhance the participation and empowerment of women, the third millennium’s development goal (promoting gender equality and women empowerment) is focused on women’s upliftment in the socio-economic development of women.
The study was planned to accomplish various targets. Among these are: to look at the idea of self improvement gatherings of self improvement gatherings Kakramba town of Tuljapur Taluka, to survey the techniques of engaging women through SHG's to analyze the degree to which women are enabled by partaking in SHG's; and to inspect the difficulties looked by the gatherings in engaging women. The examination received the summed up poll overview/FGD approach which enables measurable surmising to be made to a more extensive populace with the goal that outcomes could be finished up unequivocally. Multistage sampling system and subjective analysis was embraced to concoct the experimental discoveries.
The study uncovered various fascinating discoveries which include: different nature of SHG's with most extreme number of gatherings framed based on religious; economic lines; social strata and structure as the methodologies of engaging women through SHG's. The degrees of women's empowerment through taking an interest in gatherings are as expanded self-decisiveness, certainty and protection from negative social practices; and all the more vitally the difficulties, similar to poor participation of individuals further as a resultant causing obstruction in the activities of the gatherings in enabling women.
