what is the cause of civil war in Sri Lanka? |
| Answer» The democratically elected government in Sri Lanka\xa0after its independence in 1948, adopted a series of majoritarian measures to establish Sinhala supremacy in Sri Lanka. In 1956, an Act was passed to recognise Sinhala as the only official language, thus disregarding Tamil. The government followed preferential policies that favoured Sinhalese for University positions and government jobs. A new Constitution stipulated that the state shall protect and foster Buddhism.All these measures taken by the government gradually increased the feeling of alienation among the Sri Lankan Tamils. They felt that none of the political parties led by the Buddhist Sinhala leaders were sensitive to their language and culture. They were deprived of political rights, government jobs and other opportunities common to a citizen.As a result, the Sri Lankan Tamils launched parties and struggles for the recognition of Tamil as official language\xa0for regional autonomy and opportunity in education and job. But their demand for autonomy to provinces populated by the Tamils was repeatedly rejected.This led to a joint demand by different political organisations of Tamils for an independent Tamil Elam (State) in Northern and Eastern parts of Sri Lanka. This distrust between the two communities turned into widespread political strife which led to a Civil War. As a result, thousands of people of both communities were killed. | |

Explain any five steps taken towards strengthening of the third tier of democracy in India |
| Answer» When power is taken away from the Central and State Governments and given to local government, it is called decentralisation. The need for decentralisation was recognised in our Constitution. Panchayats in villages and municipalities in urban areas were set up in all the states. But these were directly under the control of the state government. Elections to these local governments were not held regularly. Local governments did not have the\xa0power or resources of their own. The Constitution was amended in 1992 to make the third tier of democracy more powerful and effective. Given below are some of the provision which was attempted towards this:\tNow it is mandatory to hold regular elections to local government bodies.\tSeats are reserved in the elected bodies and the executive heads of these institutions for SC, ST and OBC\'s.\tAt least 1/3rd of all positions and seats are reserved for women.\tAn independent institution called State Election Commission has been created in each state to conduct panchayat and municipal elections.\tThe State Governments are required to share some powers and revenue with local government bodies. The nature of sharing varies from state to state. | |

Why does only final goods and services are included while calculating the national income |
|
Answer» The problem of double counting is the problem of estimating the value of goods and services more than once. Value of intermediate goods is not included in the estimation of gross domestic product because value of intermediate goods is reflected in the value of final goods. For e.g. a farmer sold wheat to flour mill for Rs 10 per kg. The mill grinds the wheat and sold the flour to a biscuit company for Rs 12 per kg. The biscuit company uses the flour, sugar and butter to make 5 biscuit packets. These biscuits are sold to consumer at Rs 15 per biscuit packet (Rs 75). Here biscuits are the final goods which are purchased by the consumer. Wheat and wheat flour are the intermediate goods used in the production of final good. The value of biscuit, Rs 15 includes the value of flour, Rs 12. Hence, only the value of final goods and services are taken into consideration. Only final goods and services are included while calculating National Income because:(a) Final goods are those goods which have crossed the boundary line of production and are ready for final consumption and investment.(b) The value of final goods already includes the value of all the intermediate goods that are used in making the final goods. This would lead to the problem of double counting if all the goods of the economy will be included while calculating national income.(c) This should be avoided because if the value of any commodity is counted more than once it will result in overestimation of national income. |
