She convinces the women of Greece to withhold sex from their husbands to pressure the men into signing a peace treaty. The women humiliate the men while denying them intimacy. Unable to take it anymore, the men eventually agree to end the war through a treaty.

Introduction
"Lysistrata" is a risque anti-war comedy by the old Greek writer Aristophanes, initially staged in 411 BCE. Lysistrata is the comic record of one lady's uncommon mission to put an end the Peloponnesian War, as Lysistrata persuades the Greece women to withhold sexual benefits from their spouses as a method of compelling the men into negotiating a peace. Some think of it as his most prominent work, and it is likely the most anthologized
Summary and analysis
Lysistrata has arranged a meeting between the women of Greece to examine the plan to put an end to the Peloponnesian War. As Lysistrata sits waiting for the ladies from Sparta, Thebes, and different areas to meet her she reviles the weakness of ladies and women. Lysistrata decides to request that the ladies decline sex with their spouses until a bargain for peace has been agreed upon and signed. Lysistrata has additionally made arrangements with elder women from Athens (the Chorus of Old Women) to capture the Acropolis later in the day. Women from the different locales at last gather and Lysistrata persuades them to make a solemn vow that they will withhold sex from their spouses until both sides sign up a peace treaty (Ruden, 2003; p9, line 125). As those women from Greece, Sparta, Thebes and other areas (Ruden, 2003; p16); they hear the hints of the older women from Athens taking the Acropolis, the stronghold that houses the treasury of Athens (line 239).
There are two choruses in Lysistrata—the Chorus of Old Women and the Chorus of Old Men. A Koryphaios is the one that leads both choruses. The Chorus of Men is the first to show up in front of an audience conveying wood and flame to the Acropolis gates (line 320). This Chorus is an old and wrinkled cluster of men who have extraordinary trouble with the wood and the considerable earthen pots of flame that they carry. Men plan to smoke all the women out of the Acropolis. As the men do that, the Chorus of the Old Women likewise approaches the Acropolis, conveying containers of water to put out the fire carried by men in earth pots. The Chorus of the Old Women is successful in the challenge between the choruses and victoriously pours the containers (jugs) of water over the heads of all the men. The Commissioner, who is a delegated judge, goes to the Acropolis looking for funds for the maritime ships. The Commissioner is astounded on finding the women of Athens at the Acropolis and requests his policemen to capture Lysistrata and other women.
In a diverting fight, that includes minimal physical contact, the commissioner’s policemen are frightened off. The Commissioner takes advantage of that chance to tell the men of Athens that they have been excessively liberal and permitted a lot of opportunity and freedom with the city's women. As the policemen keep running off, Lysistrata and the Commissioner are left to contend about the Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata contends that the War is.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
