Nonsense literature is a literary genre defined by illogicality, usually involving playful use of language or seemingly absolutely absurd concepts, as seen in Lewis Carroll's and Edward Lear's work. Typically, nonsense literature has remained historically limited to linguistic and cultural borders because the nature relies on mostly a wordplay connection to the cultural references they incorporate. However, the rise of digital comfort food has changed the way nonsense literature is produced, consumed and dispersed. Digital convergence is defined as multiple media and communication opportunities coming together in one platform and offers literary genres, including nonsense literature, new possibilities to reaching readers globally. The paper investigates how digital convergence facilitated the globalization of nonsense literature by breaking cultural barriers and ultimately providing a wide-spread availability of nonsense literature globally. Digital tools such as online translation tools, -media integration, and social media tools allowed for creativity and cultural exchange and adaptation of nonsense literature while protecting it and expanding the genre. The authors use this lens to argue that digital convergence is contributing to a new hybridization of nonsense literature that combines cultural aspects to engage global themes, adapt literature to a new experience and provide more creativity possibilities. Therefore, simply express, it authors take a standpoint suggesting that digital convergence is changing the meanings of nonsense literature and argues that nonsensical literature is a wholly global literary genre.

The goal of outcomes-based education (OBE) is to make sure that new students come to class with the values, abilities, and mindsets needed to succeed as adults once they graduate. The teaching strategy known as outcome-based education (OBE) focuses on how students will perform in the future and how they might apply their knowledge to achieve goals after receiving instruction. The newest trend in education is outcome-based education (OBE), which helps students develop their professional careers while also boosting their knowledge and creativity. OBE may promote their healthy development within the framework of their workplace. For students to gain the skills required for outcome-based education, the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) mandates that the proper evaluation techniques be used. Because it can enhance coaching, the educational system, and students' performance—all of which rely heavily on assessing graduates' abilities—outcome-based education, or OBE, is appealing. The students will discover how to close the gap between tutoring and results-based mastery methods through this approach. One of the most important developments in business education is the proposed methodological model, which would enhance the training's scientific capabilities.

Family law, whether in India or Canada, reflects the complex interplay between societal evolution and legal frameworks, especially in cross-border cases involving Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), Overseas Citizens of India (OCIs), and diverse family structures. In Canada, federal and provincial jurisdictions collaborate and occasionally conflict on issues such as marriage, divorce, child custody, spousal support, and property division. Similarly, Indian law faces unique challenges in recognizing foreign divorce decrees under Section 13 of the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC), especially when divorces occur abroad for marriages solemnized in India. In Canada, adapting to modern family dynamics, such as same-sex marriages, common-law partnerships, and blended families, while ensuring equity in child custody and spousal support, remains a focus. Meanwhile, Indian courts prioritize jurisdictional validity, voluntary participation, and adherence to personal laws like the Hindu Marriage Act, with key precedents such as Y. Narasimha Rao v. Y. Venkata Lakshmi shaping decisions. Both jurisdictions emphasize the importance of balancing domestic legal principles with international comity, particularly in cases involving cross-border families. The evolving role of technology—whether through online dispute resolution in Canada or navigating foreign judgments in India—highlights the need for innovative, inclusive, and globally informed legal solutions. This paper underscores the critical importance of legal reforms to ensure fairness and accessibility in an increasingly interconnected world.
