India of Today
India of today
Respected teacher and my dear friend, every India long for an opportunity to speak about how India has evolved as a country to be what it is today. “We owe a lot to the India, who taught as how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made”. Tipu Sultan’s army was the first to use rockets. Bhaskaracharya discovery gravity in the 8th century, long before newton was even born. India has sent 13 scientific research expeditions to Antarctica since 1981, and established the first permanent research station, Dakshin Gangotri in 1983.In the field of agriculture today India rank 2nd worldwide in farm output .In economy India is the 19th largest exporter and 10th largest importer in the world. India has the world’s 3rd largest road network, covering more than 4.3 million kilometers.Indian railway is the fourth largest rail network in world, with a track length of 114,500 kilometers. Gujarat and Rajasthan are currently the nation’s leaders in solar power generation. Tata Nano, is the world’s cheapest passenger car.
India, however, fell on evil days, and became a slave country, first under the Mughals and then under the Britishers. It was in 1947 that India became free. It was hoped that India would prosper under Swadeshi rule.India has now been free for over four decades. But what do we see? India today is self-sufficient in food. Hundreds of crores rupees are being spent to tap the petroleum resources of India. New wells, in the country and on the high seas, are being sunk in order to produce more petrol and gas and save valuable foreign exchange.The political situation is probably the worst Political leaders are not true to the electorate. They are unprincipled, corrupt and

    In order to dominate, one must first to gain the rights to conquer. If one wanted to be a competitor of the current imperialistic power, it must first defeat the imperialistic power. This is the case for the British East India Company. Before its establishment, the company faces many strong powers such as the Portuguese, Spaniards, and Dutch. In 1588, Spanish Armada were defeated, British were able to enter this competitive field in order to start their quest in exploring and colonizing the international markets. This marked the start of the British East India Company. Initially, the doubtful Queen Elizabeth did not approve of this venture for the British, but after the defeat of Spanish Armada, she became more confident. As a result, on the last day of the year 1600, she granted a charter incorporating 217 subscribers under the name of “The Governor and Company of Merchants of London trading into the East Indies”. This company was also known as the British or the English East India Company. This provided the company with an exclude trade with India for fifteen years. The first governor and the twenty-four committees were nominated that year, and afterward, these positions were elected annually. This company was also the first limited liability corporation, and it began with 125 shareholders and £72,000 of capital. In many ways, this company gradually evolved from a company to an extent of the British government, and influenced its political power especially in the state of India.…

    First of all, let us focus on the political environment. India had a very long period of the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty, and then became the colony of the British for nearly 100 years. In 1947, India was independent, and became a republic country. Due to British influence, India’s political structure is similar to Britain. India has a parliamentary system and a party system. There are more than eight national and two dozen regional parties in India. Among these parties, the Congress Party is the most influential party in the country. It had uninterrupted control of the government for 33 of the 44 years following independence. The Congress Party played a really importance role in India’s economic reform. For example, the aged P.V. Narasimha Rao led the Congress Party from 1991-1996 and was responsible for much of India’s free market reform in the early to mid-1990s. Comparing with other Asian countries, India’s parliamentary system and party system makes the political environment relatively free and open. At the same time, the influence and authority of the Congress Party also makes India’s political environment relatively stable. However there are also lots of issues impacting India’s stable…

    • The Kargil War, also known as the Kargil conflict was an armed conflict between India and Pakistan that took place between May and July 1999 in the Kargil district of Kashmir. The cause of the war was the infiltration of Pakistani soldiers and Kashmiri militants into positions on the Indian side of the Line of Control, which serves as the de facto border between the two nations. Directly after the war, Pakistan blamed the fighting entirely on independent Kashmiri insurgents; however, documents left behind by casualties and later statements by Pakistan's Prime Minister and Chief of Army Staff showed involvement of Pakistani paramilitary forces. The Indian Army, supported by the Indian Air Force, attacked the Pakistani positions and, with international diplomatic support, eventually forced a Pakistani withdrawal across the Line of Control (LoC).…

    India now seems to be moving away from a totally independent strong democracy to a banana republic that looks at the US for everything happening here! We foolishly consider the so-called IT revolution (which seem to offer some “paper money” to some English educated youngsters of our nation) as economic development! Our entire Industry and Agriculture now depend on Multinational (mainly those of the US) corporations for upkeep, technology/ market. Our commodity prices are decided in the US (and other western nations); our raw materials (based in our land) prices are decided in US; our “Standards” are decided in the US; our education methods and qualities are decided…

    Postcolonialism (also Post-colonial theory, Postcolonial studies, and Post-colonialism) comprises methods of intellectual discourse that present analyses of, and responses to, the cultural legacies of colonialism and of imperialism, which draw from different post-modern schools of thought, such as critical theory. In the field of anthropology, post-colonial studies record the human relations among the colonial nations and the peoples of the colonies they had ruled and exploited. [1] Post-colonial critical theory draws from, illustrates, and explains with examples from the humanities — history, architecture, anthropology, the cinema, feminism, human geography, linguistics, Marxist theory, philosophy, political science, sociology, religion and theology, and post-colonial literature — to present the ideology and the praxis of contemporary (neo) colonialism.…

    A fresh study by a group of international scientists peesh confirms the dominant role of Saraswati river in sustaining the so-called Indus Valley Civilisation. [28] A new study titled, ‘Fluvial landscapes of the Harappan civilisation’, has concluded that the Indus Valley Civilisation died out because the monsoons which fed the rivers that supported the civilisation, migrated to the east. With the rivers drying out as a result, the civilisation collapsed some 4000 years ago. The study was conducted by a team of scientists from the US, the UK, India, Pakistan and Romania between 2003 and 2008.[29] While the new finding puts to rest, at least for the moment, other theories of the civilisation’s demise, such as the shifting course of rivers due to tectonic changes or a fatal foreign invasion, it serves to strengthen the premise that the civilisation that we refer to as the Indus Valley Civilisation was largely located on the banks of and in the proximity of the Saraswati river.…
