Solena amplexicaulis, (Cucurbitaceae) commonly known as the creeping cucumber, native to tropical southern Asia. It is generally prescribed for wound healing by the local healers in western districts of Tamil Nadu. The fruits, leaves, roots and shoots have used as food and it is traditionally used as astringent, appetizer, carminative, cardiotonic, digestive, diuretic, expectorant, invigorating, purgative and stimulant. It have lot of medicinal uses such as antioxidant antidiabetic, antibacterial etc. The available reports on physicochemical, anti-microbial activity, anti-oxidant activity and pharmacological value of Solena amplexicaulis are discussed in this review.

A study of ten-year (1976-1985) mean July climatology of southern Asia and adjoining ocean areas confirms the presence of a well-defined stationary wave, believed to be due mainly to land-sea thermal contrast over the region, in the fields of several meteorological variables. The wave extends laterally over about 10 degrees of latitude with maximum intensity along about 20° N and vertically from surface to about 300 hPa. Its zonal wavelength is about 2000-2500 km and its amplitude in the field of zonal anomaly of temperature and meridional component of wind is 1 oC and 4ms-l respectively. The trough-ridge system of the wave appears to tilt eastward with height from surface to about 700 hPa and westward aloft up to about 300 hPa, while the warmest-coldest anomaly system appears to tilt eastward all the way from surface to about 300 hPa. A phase difference appears to exist between the geopotential and the temperature fields in both the lower and the upper tropospheres. The aforesaid zonal-vertical tilt of the monsoon trough and phase difference between the geopotential and the temperature fields appears to be compatible, through thermal advection, With a direct conversion of eddy available potential energy into eddy kinetic energy via a west-east (clockwise) overturning with warm air rising in the west and cold air sinking in the east in the case of the eastward-tilting lower-tropospheric trough and an east-west (anti-clockwise) overturning with warm air rising in the east and cold air sinking in the west in the case of the westward-tilting middle and upper-tropospheric trough, An enhancement of the thermal advection and hence the vertical circulation may occasionally lead to development of the trough into a I(JW or depression. However, the question of development of the trough and physical factors, which may contribute to such development, needs to be examined by further study.

India always had cordial ties with Afghanistan except for the four years of the Taliban rule. September 11 replaced the planet's political and security structure and gave India a chance to enter Afghanistan. Afghanistan's strategic position attracts the global community and it is a gateway to energy-rich CARs. New Delhi's interest in Afghanistan is quite realistic. After the end of the Taliban government in 2001, India increased its influence in Kabul, attended the Bonn Conference, and pledged to support Afghan people in the rehabilitation process. New Delhi enjoyed cordial ties with democratically elected regimes in Afghanistan and promoted its relations with Tehran to protect its objectives in Kabul to contain Islamabad. India has infused a lot of money in several projects in Afghanistan to increase its impact in Afghanistan. The global community thinks India is effective advertising in Southern Asia, but Pakistan believes New Dehli's foot in Kabul threatens its security. Islamabad stresses New Delhi must support Afghan nationals and avoid working against Pakistan from Afghan soil. Afghanistan has been suffering from war for the last two decades. This paper highlights the historical ties between India and Afghanistan

This study argued that one of the primary reasons China-India renewed diplomatic intercourse after the border conflict of 2017 was the fear of emergent cross-border terrorism in the Southern Asia region. It also argued that, although both nations have different approaches to terrorism, there was a need for a collective fight against the emerging cross-border terrorist groups believed to have been strengthened by ISIS affiliation. Furthermore, the study revealed that India and China’s rising economic posture contributed to the renewed diplomatic ties. On these premises, this study is posed to examine the reasons and benefits of China-India’s renewed economic, diplomatic intercourse after the border conflict of 2017.Keywords: China-India, Economic Relations, Diplomatic Relations, Cross- border terrorismTulisan ini berargumen bahwa salah satu alasan utama China-India memperbarui hubungan diplomatik setelah konflik perbatasan tahun 2017adalah karena ketakutan akan terorisme lintas batas yang muncul di kawasan Asia Selatan. Tulisan ini juga berpendapat bahwa, meskipun kedua negara memiliki pendekatan berbeda terhadap terorisme, ada kebutuhan untuk perjuangan kolektif melawan kelompok teroris lintas batas yang diyakini telah diperkuat oleh afiliasi ISIS. Lebih lanjut, tulisan ini mengungkapkan bahwa postur ekonomi India dan China yang sedang rising berkontribusi terhadap hubungan diplomatik kedua negara paska konflik perbatasan 2017. Berdasarkan premis-premis tersebut, penelitian ini diajukan untuk mengkaji alasan dan manfaat hubungan ekonomi dan diplomatik China-India yang diperbarui setelah konflik perbatasan tahun 2017.Kata-kata Kunci: China, India, Hubungan Ekonomi, Hubungan Diplomatik, Terorisme lintas batas
