Digital watermarking is a technique employed to embed secret or copyright information into digital media, such as images, audio, and video, in order to protect the intellectual property and integrity of the content. This paper presents a secure and optimized image watermarking method using advanced algorithms for embedding and extraction processes. The proposed technique integrates a combination of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and a genetic algorithm (GA) to optimize the watermark embedding process. The method ensures robustness against common image manipulations like compression, noise addition, and cropping. Security of the watermark is enhanced through encryption and key management. Experimental results show that the proposed watermarking method achieves a high level of imperceptibility and robustness, while providing effective protection for sensitive image content..

झारखंड में आदिवासी संघर्षों की परंपरा का इतिहास बहुत पुराना और जटिल है, जो मुख्य रूप से वन अधिकारों से जुड़ा हुआ है। आदिवासी समुदायों का जीवन जंगलों और प्राकृतिक संसाधनों पर निर्भर था और उनकी संस्कृति, पहचान और अस्तित्व इन संसाधनों से जुड़े थे। ब्रिटिश साम्राज्य के दौरान, आदिवासी समुदायों को वनों पर उनके पारंपरिक अधिकारों से वंचित कर दिया गया, जिससे कई संघर्षों की शुरुआत हुई, जैसे कि उलगुलान आंदोलन। .

This study examines the intersection of education and girl-child empowerment within Delhi NCR, a region marked by socio-economic diversity and deep-rooted gender disparities. Despite progressive legal frameworks and government initiatives aimed at improving female literacy and participation, cultural norms, economic constraints, safety concerns, and digital inequality continue to limit girls’ access to quality education. This research highlights that education plays a transformative role in empowering girls by enhancing their self-worth, health awareness, decision-making capabilities, and economic opportunities..
