Abstract :In this work, under the assumption that the universe is locally rotationally symmetric insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(LRS); Bianchi type-II and filled with anisotropic dark fluid insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(dark energy and dark radiation);, we investigate whether the generalized second law of thermodynamics insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GSLT); is still valid. We also consider another important condition for LRS Bianchi type-II spacetimes whereby the model expansion $\theta $ is proportional to the shear $\sigma $, which leads to $B=A^{n}$ insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(where n is a constant and A and B are the metric potentials);. Based on this, we derive a general circumstance for the GSLT and find that its validity depends on the anisotropies of both the dark fluid and the metric potentials. We conclude that the GSLT still holds at all times even if these two anisotropic conditions are removed from the results.Keywords : Dark fluid, thermodynamics, Bianchi II
