In India, the quote “Justice Delayed is Justice Denied” is frequently cited in legal proceedings, orders, and judgments. However, its impact has been minimal, leading to a rising backlog of cases, especially criminal ones. This issue has been discussed at governance and judicial levels, yet the situation continues to worsen. The author's conscience is compelled to address this proverb due to the severe mental toll on accused individuals in prolonged criminal trials. These delays, spanning years, leave the accused mentally imprisoned and living in torment. The judiciary, known for its sharp discernment, appears inconsistent in criminal cases. Accused individuals endure financial, physical, and mental torture without fault, often for over twenty-five years. If trials concluded within a reasonable five-year period, many could have been exonerated much sooner. Even the cruelest animal shows mercy, yet the current system subjects the accused to prolonged suffering unjustly.
Agriculture and industry are the two most important economic sectors for various countries around the globe, providing millions of jobs as well as being the main source of income for these countries. Nevertheless, with the increasing demand for agricultural and industrial produce, huge amounts of waste are also being produced. Without proper management, this waste (both liquid and solid) poses a serious threat to overall environmental quality, mainly due to its toxicity and slow degradation processes. Current approaches are effective but would normally require huge capital investments, are labour intensive and generate potential hazardous by-products. As such, there is a need for alternative...
This book reports the latest research and successful industrial case studies on sustainable technologies in the oil palm industry, ranging from plantation, processing to waste handling. It covers the latest developments on harvesting, refining, nanomaterial production, aviation biofuel, biomass supply chain and waste treatment and handling.

Uneven distribution and depletion of good-quality water reserves significantly devastate the agriculture sector. In this scenario, water management as well as efficient irrigation and drainage strategies are primarily required to conserve water resources and enhance farm efficiency. Irrigation and Drainage – Recent Advances provides insights into irrigation methods, scheduling possibilities, and optimal irrigation frequencies. It also discusses management strategies including methods of groundwater recharging and rainwater harvesting, restoration, and modification of drainage networks for manifesting the cropping index. The book presents key aspects and examines the role of Agrovoltaic energy, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things (IoT) in the development of smart irrigation systems for sustainable farming.

A hotel in Singapore is opened at the turn of the century, when the island is still a jewel in the crown of the British Empire. Each day, new faces appear and swiftly disappear – guests and staff alike. Every ten years, we check in to meet the hotel’s residents: a Cantonese nanny, an Indian spiritualist, a Malay film star, Japanese soldiers, transgender sex workers, wedding guests, suspected terrorists, and more. They live out the pivotal moments in their personal lives, as empires die and new ones are born from their ashes. Even though the chambermaids clean up after them, readying the room for the next guests, traces of the past persist, and time reveals its cyclical nature. Ghosts com...
