|
Answer» In 1930, the working committee of the congress met at Sabarmathi Ashram and passed resolution to hold Civil Disobedience under the leadership of Gandhiji. Gandhi wrote a letter to the Viceroy demanding eleven points. In case, the government does not accept this demand, the people would reject the paying tax and also start Civil disobedience movement all over India. As the Viceroy rejected the letter, declared on March 12,1930 that he would walk with followers upto Dandi, the coastal area of Gujarath. Gandhi covered 375 kms on foot and reached Dandi. He broke the law by holding a fistful salt without paying the tax which the British had levied on salt. Charaka, the Spinning Wheel became more famous during this march. Thousands of people participated in the Salt Sathyagraha. After this, National Movement Week was observed from April 6th to 13th. Many leaders like Vijayalakshmi Pandit, Kamala Nehru, Vallabhabai Patel, Rajagopalachari, Babu Rajendra Prasad and many other leaders who had participated with Gandhi in Dandi March were arrested. Slowly, the movement spread to other parts of the country as well. |

Prepare a debate for the same on the topic given below:‘Newspapers ought to contain more news and fewer advertisements' |
|
Answer» Newspapers Ought to Contain More News and Fewer Advertisements (by Pradeepa) Respected Chairperson, August faculty and dear friends, It is painful to see that journalists have lost all ethics and professionalism today. They adopt diverse techniques to increase the revenue of their paper. They try to sensationalise the news to win more readers. However, even the newspaper having the largest circulation is not self-dependent. It must have plenty of commercial advertisements to meet its running costs. In fact, it is these ads which provide the owners the requisite funds. Thus, advertisements cannot be ruled out. They are a necessary evil and must stay. The owners and editors of the newspapers must also realise their responsibility to the nation. The press is the strongest pillar of democracy. It creates sensible public opinion in favor of good policies and criticises the wrong policies. The newspapers must maintain a balance between news and advertisements. A common man buys a newspaper for news. It would be better that the editors publish a classified advertisement supplement twice or thrice a week and save the general reader from the proliferation of advertisements while scanning the pages for views and news. |
