Vijay Singh Pathik, Manikya Lal Verma and Hari Bhau Upadhyaya were these leaders. Bhils the national awareness.

Govind Guru was a great social reformer who encouraged the progress of Bhils’ social and moral growth. He founded the Sump Sabha, to remain in the fold of Hindu religion. He founded Bhagat Panth. By the Sump Sabha the social awakening among Bhils of Mewar, Dungarpur, Edar, Gujrat, Vijaynagar, Malwa led to rulers’ administrative oppression and Bhils were forced to leave Bhagat panth.

When the trend of alcohol began to fall then the excise department had to face losses. Bhils had no important political ambitions, but their societal unity was a challenge for British rulers. Alongwith this, political consciousness arose in them.

The Nationalist State People Council was founded in December 1927 to bind unitedly the people of nation’s states.

Bhil movement’s main leaders were – Govind Guru and Motilal Tejawat.

Correct Answer is: (c) Monk Masan

The main tribes of Rajasthan are Bhils and Meena.

These books were 

1. The State of Marwar 

2. Popabai’s Pole.

In Alwar state, public awareness began by farmer movement. The state farmers ran a movement as their crops were being ruined by wild pigs. Maharaja ordered to kill the pigs. Later on the state farmers organised a gathering in Nemuchana village against the increased taxes.

Soldiers fired on poeple fleeing the village in which hundreds of men, women and children were martyred. Mahatma Gandhi condemned the Nemuchana controversy strongly. British rulers were pressurized by this incident and they alongwith Alwar Maharaja went for an agreement or reconcilation with farmers.

Neemuchana controversy is associated with Alwar district. In the state, the public awareness was started with farmers movement.

Matsya Confederation’s capital was ‘Alwar’ and its Prime Minister was Shri Shobha Ram.

Govind Guru was a great social reformer who started Bhagat Movement.

Motilal Tejawat was the founder of Akki movement. This was a tribal movement.

The meaning of Peewal is irrigated land and the meaning of Barani is non-irrigated land.

Surji Bhagat and Govind Guru organised the Bhils in societal community.

Govind Guru founded ‘Samp Sabha’ to organise the Bhils.

In the southern area of Rajasthan, there resided the Bhil community. These areas are mainly Dungarpur, Mewar, Banswara, Pratapgarh and Kushalgarh. The Bhils are a very traditional tribe that remain active about their societal and economic status. When their traditional rights were affected, they broke out in a revolt, both against Britishers as well as against the native administration.

Govind Guru movement and social and moral Bhagat movement: Govind Guru was a great social reformer who took upon himself the responsibility of the social and moral progress of Bhils. Apart from the social perspective, he collectively helped them to bring them into the mainstream of political existence.

The establishment of Samp Sabha : Govind Guru served Bhils and in 1883, he established Samp Sabha. In the Rajasthani language, the meaning of Samp is ‘the people’. Through the medium of this assembly, the Bhils of Mewar, Dungarpur, Edar, Gujarat, Vijaynagar and Malwa had societal awareness and this worried the native rulers as also the Britishers, and Bhils were forced to leave the path of Bhagats.

When they were forced to do forced labour, and their basic rights to forest produce and access to it were snatched away were they felt helpless and were forced to revolt. By the efforts of Guru Narayan alongwith spread of education, progress also took place, example, when the habit of drinking liquor decreased in Kushalgarh and Banswara states, the revenue department had to bear losses, Britishers considered the possibility of establishment of Bhil state for their improvement and organisation.

The progress of movement and suppressive action : In April 1913, Dungarpur, state first arrested and then released Govind Guru who left with his associates to the mountains of Maangarh in Edar state that is situated at the border of Banswada and Sath state. In October 1913, in his messages he urged Bhils to assemble at the mountain of Maangarh. Bhils gathered in large numbers along with weapons. They beat up two soldiers of the Banswada state.

The fort of Sath was attacked. This action angered Banswada, Dungarpur states and with the permission of Ag. G. between 6th to 10th Novemeber 1913, two companies of Mewar, one company of 104 Welleselly even their one company of Rajput regiment and one company of Jaat regiment reached the mountain of Maangarh and attaked Bhils by artillery.

According to government statistics, 1500 Bhils were killed in this action. This massacre was deemed by the historians as more cruel than the merciless killings in Jallianwala Bagh. This way Bhagat Movement as directed was suppressed, Govind Guru was sentenced to 10 years, imprisonment.

It is clear that the Bhils had no important political expectations but their societal unity became a challenge for Britishers and native rulers. Govind Guru was in favour of non – violence and their white flag was the symbol of peace. He proved to be farsighted by the results of movement. Alongwith Bhils the political awareness arose in other sections.

Motilal Tejawat and Akki movement: After the Bhagat movement was suppressed, slackened, dampened or torn apart by Britishers, the movement of Bhils. Still the influence of Bhagat movement worked in political consciousness of the Bhils. The government policy against Bhils was revealed. In 1917, Bhils and Garasiyas jointly wrote a letter to Maharana about their revolt against oppressive policy and forced labour.

With no result in sight and influenced by Bijolia farmer movement against Maharana’s maximum taxes and oppressive behaviour, a complaint was lodged. When all these non-violent efforts had no results, the Bhils in the Khalsa areas so of majority refused to pay or clear the manufacturing cost, and to do forced labour. In 1921, the Bhils received the leadership of Motilal Tejavat.

Tejavat motivated the Bhils not to pay the manufacturing costs and not to do forced labour. This became famous by the name of Akki movement. This movement was accepted as symbol of tribal political awakening. The Maharawal of Dungarpur worried at the spread of movement, ended all types of Forced labour from his state. In the Jagiri areas, the Bhils not receiving the amenities was a reason.

The Akki movement in the collective form under the leadership of Tejawat spread to other than majority areas of Sirohi and Gujrat. British government adopted oppressive policy. On 3 June, 1922 Tejawat was imprisoned and handed over to Mewar government.

The highest court of Mewar sought an assurance in .writing from Tejawat not to work against the state. With the interference of a close confidant of Gandhiji, Manilal Kothari, an agreement was finalised. On 16th April 1936 a Tejawat in written form gave desired assurance and on 23 April, he was released.

(C) 60%

Let C = Population travels by car

B = Population travels by bus

n(C) = 20%, n(B) = 50%, n(C ∩ B) = 10%

n(C ∪ B) = n(C) + n(B) – n(C ∩ B)

= 20% + 50% – 10%

= 60%

The equation of such plane is \(\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}+\frac{z}{c}=1\)

Let A (2, 3, 4), B (- 1, - 2, 1), C (5, 8, 7) be given 

Direction ratio of AB are (- 1 - 2), (- 2 - 3) (1 - 4) = (-3,-5,-3) 

Direction r ratio of AC are (5 - 2), (8 - 3), (7 - 4) = (3, 5,3)

The direction ratios of AB and AC are proportional. 

So AB and AC are parallel 

But A is common in AB and AC 

A, B and C are collinear.

3 + k, 18 – k, 5k + 1 are in AP

∴ t₂ – t₁ = t₃ – t₂ (common difference is same) 

18 – k – (3 + k) = 5k + 1 – (18 – k) 

18 – k – 3 – k = 5k + 1 – 18 + k 

15 – 2k = 6k – 17 

32 = 8k 

k = 32/8 = 4 

The value of k = 4

The poet could hear the chatter of the fan, though she could not understand it. But soon, the scope to decode and comprehend It was lost as the fan’s motor was oiled by someone. Thereafter, the talking fan became silent.

A.P = x, 10, y, 24, z,… 

d = t₂ – t₁ = 10 – x … (1) 

= t₃ – t₂ = y – 10 … (2) 

= t₄ – t₃ = 24 – y … (3) 

= t₅ – t₄ = z – 24 … (4) 

(2) and (3) 

⇒ y – 10 = 24 – y 

2y = 24 + 10 = 34 

y = 43/2 = 17 

(1) and (2) 

⇒ 10 – x = y – 10 

10 – x = 17 – 10 = 7 

-x = 7 – 10

-x = -3 ⇒ x = 3 

From (3) and (4) 

24 – y = z – 24 

24 – 17 = z – 24 

7 = z – 24 

∴ z = 7 + 24 = 31

∴ Solutions x = 3 

y = 17 

z = 31

Number of seats in the first row 

(a) = 20 

∴ t₁ = 20 

Number of seats in the second row 

(t₂) = 20 + 2 = 22 

Number of seats in the third row 

(t₃) = 22 + 2 = 24

Here a = 20 ; d = 2

Number of rows 

(n) = 30 

t_n = a + (n – 1)d 

t₃₀ = 20 + 29(2) 

= 20 + 58 

t₃₀ = 78 

Number of seats in the last row is 78

Using Euclid’s division algorithm,

a = 21q + r, we get 532 = 21 x 25 + 7.

The remainder is 7.

No. of completed rows = 25, left over flower pots = 7 pots.

To find the HCF of 252525 and 363636 by using

Euclid’s Division algorithm.

363636 = 252525 x 1 + 111111

The remainder 111111 ≠ 0

By division of Euclid’s algorithm

252525 = 111111 x 2 + 30303

The remainder 30303 ≠ 0

Again by division of Euclid’s algorithm

111111 = 30303 x 3 + 20202

The remainder 20202 ≠ 0

Again by division of Euclid’s algorithm.

30303 = 20202 + 10101

The remainder 10101 ≠ 0

Again by division of Euclid’s algorithm.

20202 = 10101 x 2 + 0

The remainder is 0

∴ The H.C.F. is 10101

2ⁿ x 5^m

2ⁿ is always even for all values of n.

5^m is always odd and ends with 5 for all values of m.

But 2ⁿ x 5^m is always even and ends in 0.

∴ 2ⁿ x 5^m cannot end with the digit 5 for any values of m. No value of m will satisfy 2ⁿ x 5^m ends in 5.

Let the positive integer be “x” 

x = 88 x y + 61(a = pq + r)

Since 88 is a multiple of 11

61 = 11 x 5 + 6

∴ The remainder is 6

Let the numbers be I, I + 1:

They are co-prime if only +ve integer that divides both is 1.

I is given to be +ve integer.

So I = 1, 2, 3, ….

∴ One is odd and the other one is even. Hence H.C.F. of the two consecutive numbers is 1. Hence the result.

4n = (2²)ⁿ = 2²ⁿ

= 2ⁿ x 2ⁿ

2 is a factor of 4ⁿ

∴ 4ⁿ is always even.

Let the positive integers be a, b, and c.

a = 13 q + 9

b = 13q + 1

c = 13 q + 10

a + b + c = 13q + 9 + 13q + 7 + 13q + 10

= 39q + 26

= 13 (3q + 2)

Which is divisible by 13.

Let n – 1 and n be two consecutive positive integers, then the product is n(n – 1) 

n(n – 1) = n² – n

We know that any positive integer is of the form 2q or 2q + 1 for same integer q

Case 1:

When n = 2 q

n² – n = (2q)² – 2q

= 4q² – 2q

= 2q (2q – 1)

= 2 [q (2q – 1)]

n² – n = 2 r

r = q(2q – 1)

Hence n – n. divisible by 2 for every positive integer.

Case 2:

When n = 2q + 1

n² – n = (2q + 1)² – (2q + 1)

= (2q + 1) [2q + 1 – 1]

= 2q (2q + 1)

n² – n = 2r

r = q (2q + 1)

n² – n divisible by 2 for every positive integer.

• For a third party, a partnership firm and partners are one and the same.
• A partner can be looked upon as an agent or say representative of the firm for the business acts he does for the firm or say the partners.
• A partner can thus bind the partners and the firm through his activities and the firm becomes responsible for his acts with the third parties i.e. the outside world. -» Hence, it is said that a partner is an agent of other partners or the firm.

Sole proprietorship is the most basic yet fundamentally very important form of business.

• A sole proprietor does all the activities himself or is in direct contact with all those people who conduct business activities on his behalf.
• The proprietor raises his own capital, trades with other businessman, purchases products or raw material, processes them, performs sales and marketing and also manages the books of accounts.
  Moreover, the sole proprietor remains in direct contact with vendors, customers, employees, market, etc.
• All these things are extremely important for a person to understand and do a business. Sole proprietorship teaches the proprietor all these aspects thoroughly and hence it is considered as a training school for business.

1. A sole trader does business alone. 

2. He invests his own capital, skill and intelligence in the management of business. 

3. A sole trader is the only manager of business. So he is the sole decision maker of his business. 

4. He is not answerable to anyone and need not consult anyone for doing business. 

5. There is no external interference. 

6. Therefore, he can take quick decisions and prompt actions and take advantage of profit – oriented situations. Thus, sole trader is the only decision maker and therefore has complete control on business.

The owner is the sole manager and decision maker of his business- Sole proprietorship. 

Explanation: 

In a sole proprietorship, the business is owned and managed by one individual. This individual is solely responsible of the business and doesn’t share profits and loss with anyone.

It is right that the concept of human rights is one of the driving forces of our times. The human rights inspections and publicising of abuses compel the governments to protect them. The human rights record of a state has become the ligitimate concern of the international community. There is, as Jerome Shestack observed, ‘a moral inevitability to human rights’.

यह सही है कि हमारे समय में मानव अधिकारों के अत्यधिक शक्तिशाली होने की व्यवस्था की अवधारणा है। मानव अधिकारों के निरीक्षण व दुरुपयोग का प्रचार सरकारों को इनकी रक्षा करने को बाध्य करता है। एक देश का मानव अधिकार रिकार्ड अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय बिरादरी की विधिसंगत चिंता बन जाता है। जैसा कि जेरोम सेस्टैक कहते हैं, ‘यह मानव अधिकारों के प्रति एक नैतिक अनिवार्यता है।’

A sole proprietorship is the private sector form of organisation.

Explanation: 

A sole proprietorship is completely owned and managed by an individual. This kind of business is not regulated by any government and is controlled and managed by the proprietor himself. Hence, it is regarded as a private sector organisation.

A proprietorship has unlimited liability. 

Explanation: 

Under unlimited liability, if the owner fails to pay the debts of the business, then his/her personal property can be utilised to pay the debt. This implies that there is no difference between the property of the owner and the business. The term “unlimited liability” pertains specifically to a sole proprietorship, as the proprietor is solely liable for the debts incurred by the business.

A form of business in which the business firm is owned, managed and controlled by only one person is called a sole proprietorship and the person is called proprietor or sole proprietor.

The head of the HUF firm is called the Karta. He is the eldest male member of the family. He administers and controls the entire business; The liability of Karta is unlimited.

The liability of the owner of the sole proprietorship is unlimited. This means that he may even have to sell off his personal assets to pay-off the business debts.

Palkhivala says that the world continues to be ‘less than half free’ because nearly four-fifths of the 160 members of the United Nations do not permit freedom of the press. In half of the countries of the world people are incarcerated for speaking their minds. Mental, physical and emotional tortures are regularly practised by a third of the world’s governments.
