"agriculture and industries go hand in hand" justify your answer |
|
Answer» *Agriculture and industry are not exclusive of each other.*Agriculture and injustry go hand in hand because industry is depend on agricultural products for the raw material from which industry makes the finished goods from them.* Industries provide agricultural products to the agriculture sector such as pvc pipe tractor etc.*Agricultural development is only possible due to the support from the manufacturing industries. The agro-based industries depend on agriculture for raw materials and sell their products such as fertilisers, insecticides, irrigation pumps, PVC pipes, machines and tools, etc to the farmers.The industrial sector provides employment to the excess labour (labours who are actually disguised unemployed) in the agriculture sector.Thus, development and competitiveness of manufacturing industry has not only assisted agriculturists in increasing their production but also made production process very efficient.Thus, it can be concluded the agriculture and industy move hand-in-hand. (1) if the production of industries increase the agricultural production will also increase as it provides them raw materials such as jute, cotton ,silk etc. (2)they are dependent on each other as industries make products like fertilizers ,pvc pumps, insecticides ,pesticides and farmers purchase them for improving their production and then later provide better raw materials to them.(3) agriculture increases the industrial market as different industries are present for beverages ( like mango juice industries) ,some are there for making snax for children like potato chips ,some are there for making silk products like silk shadi etc |

Explain in detail how belgium and Sri Lanka end up for power sharing |
|
Answer» *Sri Lanka is a neighbouring country of India in Asia . Belgium is a small country in Europe.* The population of Sri Lanka consist 74% of Sinhalese and 18% of Tamils .The ethnic composition of Belgium is 59% Dutch and 40% French and 1% German.*The majority community ruled over Sri Lanka in it\'s own way by disregarding Tamil . In Belgium there is an arrangement of power between Dutch French and German. Belgium is a small country in Western Europe with complex ethnic composition. Of the country\'s total population, 59 percent speak Dutch language, 40 percent speak French and 1 percent speak German.Inspite of these diversities, the leaders of Belgium decided to make an arrangement for power sharing. Between 1970 and 1993, they amended their Constitution four times.The Constitution provides that the number of Dutch and French speaking ministers shall be equal in the Central Government and the State Governments. The State Governments are not subordinate to the Central Government.Contrary to it, leaders of the Sinhala community in Sri Lanka sought to secure dominance over government by virtue of their majority and refused to share power with the Tamils.The democratically elected government adopting majoritarian measures declared \'Sinhala\' as the only official language and \'Buddhism\' as state religion. Accommodation in BelgiumIn Belgium, the government handled the community difference very well. Between 1970 and 1993, Belgian leaders amended their constitution four times and came up with a new model to run the government.Here are some of the elements of the Belgian model.\tThe Constitution prescribes that the number of Dutch and French-speaking ministers shall be equal in the Central Government. Some special laws require the support of the majority of members from each linguistic group. Thus, no single community can make decisions unilaterally.\tThe state governments are not subordinate to the Central Government.\tBrussels has a separate government in which both communities have equal representation.\tApart from the Central and the State Government, there is a third kind of government. This ‘community government’ is elected by people belonging to one language community – Dutch, French and German-speaking – no matter where they live. This government has the power regarding cultural, educational and language-related issues.\xa0Majoritarianism in Sri LankaSri Lanka emerged as an independent country in 1948. The Sinhala community was in the majority so they had formed the government. They also followed preferential policies that favoured Sinhala applicants for university positions and government jobs. These measures taken by the government gradually increased the feeling of alienation among the Sri Lankan Tamils. Sri Lankan Tamils felt that constitution and government policies denied them equal political rights, discriminated against them in getting jobs and other opportunities and ignored their interests. Due to this, the relationship between the Sinhala and Tamil communities become poor. Sri Lankan Tamils launched parties and struggles for the recognition of Tamil as an official language, for regional autonomy and equality of opportunity in securing education and jobs. But their demand was repeatedly denied by the government. The distrust between the two communities turned into widespread conflict and turned into a CIVIL WAR. As a result, thousands of people of both the communities have been killed. Many families were forced to leave the country as refugees and many more lost their livelihoods. The civil war ended in 2009 and caused a terrible setback to the social, cultural and economic life of the country\xa0 |

Evaluate the role of business man in the civil disobedience movement. |
| Answer» The business class in India initially supported the Civil Disobedience Movement. This was because the industrialists and merchants in India had become rich during the First World War. They were keen on expanding their businesses and wanted protection against foreign industries. Many eminent industrialists such as Purshottamdas Thakurdas and G. D. Birla criticised the colonial government for its control over the Indian economy which prevented their growth. They provided financial assistance during the movement, and refused to buy and sell imported goods. Many industrialists began to see swaraj as a time when colonial restrictions on business will end. However, towards the end, they became apprehensive of the growing influence of socialism among the younger members of the Congress.\xa0 | |

| Answer» (i) Power-sharing in different forms of government: Power is shared among different organs of government, such as the legislature, executive and judiciary. It is also termed as horizontal distribution of power because it allows different organs of government placed at the same level to exercise different powers. For example, The distribution of power between Indian Parliament (legislature), the council of ministers headed by chief ministers (executive) and Courts of India.(ii) Power-sharing among various levels of governments: The power is shared among governments at different levels– a general government for the entire country and governments at the provincial or regional level. This is also called the federal division of power. Under this the Constitution clearly lays down the power of each level of government. For example, In India, power is shared among three levels of government which are Central government, State government and the local governments.(iii) Power-sharing among different social groups:\xa0Power may also be shared among different social groups such as the religious and linguistic groups. For example, in India, reservations are made for the socially weaker sections of society in legislatures and bureaucracy.(iv) Power-sharing among political parties, pressure groups and movements:\xa0Political Parties, Pressure Groups and Movements control or influence those who are in power. Different political parties contest elections for power which ensures that power does not remain in one hand. In the long run, power is shared among different political parties that represent different ideologies and social groups. | |

|
Answer» The difference between unitary and federal government is 1. Unitary government puts it power in one central government . 2. In federal government the governing power is divided into federal and local governing bodies that connect to national government . Examples : for federal government is the United States??, the federal Republic of Germany??, Australia??. 1. Under the unitary system, there is only one level of government or there are sub-units which are subordinate to the central government. Whereas, in a federal system, there is decentralization of power i.e. central level, state level, grass root level.2. In a unitary system, the power is centralized in the hands of the central government and every order passed by it has to be enacted. However, in a federal system, a state government or grass root level has its own powers. Additionally, the central government cannot act in an autocratic manner.3. In a federal system, criteria of dual citizenship may exist. For example - U.S.A. In India, no such criterion exists. In contrast, the unitary system does not practice any system of dual citizenship. |

The democratic system in Belgium is an ideal example of power sharing.It had accommodated the interests of its two main ethnic groups, that is, the Dutch and the French.The two groups have equal share in the working of government. To maintain political stability and unity, equal representation had to be provided to the two social groups. Both French and Dutch speaking ministers are in the central government. Many powers of the central government has also been distributed among the state governments of both French and Dutch speaking regions. Apart from this, a community government also exists which is elected by people belonging to one language\xa0community.Such an arrangement has prevented civil strife.But Sri Lankan democracy has followed majoritarian policies which gave preferences to the interests of the majority Sinhala\xa0community neglecting the Tamil minority.The interests of the Tamils were undermined which in the long run gave rise to civil war and political instability.\xa0\xa0 |
