چکیده
The quantity and quality is a significant element of population. Quality of population is depends on social status and Literacy is one of keysocio-economic progress meter of modern society and important aspect of Indian society. Being one of the most important indicators of socio-economic change, study of literacy pattern and trend of an area is quite important. “A person who can both read and write with understanding in any language has been taken as literate by the Indian census”. An attempt has been made to study the spatio-temporal pattern of literacy in districts of the Haryana state. The study is based on the secondary sources of data mainly collected from census of India and reveals that overall there is significant increase in literacy rates in the state, which has increased from 67.91 % to 76.64 % between the years 2001 to 2011. There is a significant difference in literacy rates between males and females in the both rural and urban area of the district. Male literacy rates are substantially higher compared to females in both rural and urban area in every district. However, in rural area male literacy rates are more than the corresponding female's literacy rates. Thus, females are lagging far behind males in literacy in both rural and urban areas.

Evaluation of Tests for Separability and Symmetry of Spatio-temporal Covariance Function
In recent years, some investigations have been carried out to examine the assumptions like stationarity, symmetry and separability of spatio-temporal covariance function which would considerably simplify fitting a valid covariance model to the data by parametric and nonparametric methods. In this article, assuming a Gaussian random field, we consider the likelihood ratio separability test, a va...

Background: Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the reasons for mental retardation and defective growth in neonates. It can be treated if it is diagnosed early. The congenital hypothyroidism can be diagnosed using newborn screening in the first days after birth. Disease mapping helps to identify high-risk areas of the disease. This study aimed to evaluate the pattern of CH using the Poisso...
