In contemporary times, the influence of technology has made the world a global village. Advanced means of communication and transportation has reduced the distance of miles into few hours/minutes. The advent of computers and internet has its significant impact on every aspect of society. Today the business world cannot survive without technology. This paper tries to explore and study in an empirical way, the impact of technology on contemporary practices of HR and its role in enhancing the organizational effectiveness.Keywords

The present study reports the existence of a unique and unusual feature of the Zanskar valley, Ladakh, India – a proglacial ‘red/brown-coloured lake’ observed from space-based remote sensing data. The lake has not changed in colour and size over the years. Here we report observations from 2004 onwards till recently. The local geology plays an important role, and iron-dominated lithology of the region interacts with snow and glacial meltwaters and subsequently deposits red/brown-coloured suspended silt in this proglacial lake. Spectral analysis of reflectance data from Sentinel-2 images in visible–infrared region of electromagnetic spectrum suggests that the colour of the lake is due to high concentration of suspended solids, having dominant reflectance at 660–700 nm and thus causing the red/brown colour of the water.Keywords
