Which one of the following is not true regarding the impact of the first world war on india |
| Answer» The hardships ended with the war as the British introduced the Rowlatt Act\tFirst of all, the war created a new economic and political situation.\xa0It led to a huge increase in defence expenditure\xa0which was financed by war loans and\xa0increasing taxes: customs duties were raised and income tax introduced.\tThroughout the war, prices doubled, which led to extreme hardships for the common people between 1913 & 1918.\xa0Villages had been requested to provide soldiers, and forcible rural recruitment\xa0caused widespread indignation. Crops had failed in several parts of India in 1918-19 and 1920-21. This added to extreme food shortages.\tThis was combined with an outbreak of influenza. 12 to 13 million people died in famines and plague,\xa0according to the 1921 census. People hoped that after the battle, their troubles could cease. That didn\'t happen, though.\tThe\xa0British government passed the infamous Rowlatt Act which gave enormous powers\xa0to the police to arrest any person without any reason whatsoever.The Act was meant to curtail the country\'s increasing nationalist upsurge. Gandhi urged the population to fight the oppressive act "Satyagraha" | |

Why did surat lose its importance as a port in 18 century |
| Answer» \xa0The world trade grew at a fast pace during the early phase of industrialisation in the 17th and 18th\xa0century . The colonial rule and advent of British brought major changes in the pattern of trading in India . Owing to huge resources most European companies could easily beat Indian merchants and traders . These companies gained further power by securing variety of concessions from local courts . Some even acquired monopoly rights to trade . As a result the ports of Surat and Hoogly decayed because local merchants operated through them . Exports from these ports declined and Bombay and Calcutta grew up as new ports for trading . These new ports were under the control of the Europeans . | |

what is coalition government? what is it\'s impact on Indian politics |
| Answer» After 1990, Indian politics saw a rise of regional political parties in many states. It was also the beginning of the era of Coalition Government at the Centre. A Coalition Government is a Cabinet of a Parliamentary Government in which several political parties cooperate. The usual reason given for this arrangement is that no party on its own can achieve a majority in the Parliament.A Coalition Government might also be created in a time of national difficulty or crisis,e.g.\xa0during war time or economic crisis. In such times, parties can form an all party coalition.Impact of coalition Government on Indian politics can be understood from the instances below(i) After the General Election in 2009, the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) (consisting of 13 separate parties) formed the government. Indian National Congress (INC) had to enter an alliance with many parties, including several regional parties to form a government at the Centre. This led to a new culture of power sharing and respect for the autonomy of State Governments.(ii) In 2014 General Election, Bharatiya Janata Party won 282 seats and formed the government. It is for the first time since 1984 Indian general elections that a party has won enough seats to govern without the support of other parties. Though Bharatiya Janata Party formed the government, but no Central Government can ignore the federal structure of India. | |

What are sectors? Classify the economic activities. |
|
Answer» Hey!! Thank you so much ✌?? The sectors of the Indian economy are:(i)\xa0Primary sector:\xa0When a good is produced by exploiting natural resources, it is an activity of\xa0the primary sector.(ii)\xa0Secondary sector:\xa0The secondary sector covers activities in which natural products are changed into other forms through ways of manufacturing that are\xa0associated with industrial activity.(iii)\xa0Tertiary sector:\xa0This sector\xa0helps in the development of the primary and secondary sectors. This is also called \'Service sector\' as it\xa0also includes some essential services that may not directly\xa0help in the production of goods.PRIMARY SECTOR - DEFINITIONWhen a good is\xa0produced\xa0by exploiting natural resources, it is an activity of the primary sector. It forms the base for all other products that are subsequently made. Since most of the natural products we get are from agriculture, dairy, fishing, forestry, this sector is also called agriculture and related\xa0sector.SECONDARY SECTOR - DEFINITIONThe\xa0secondary sector\xa0covers activities in which natural products are changed into other forms throughways of manufacturing that we associate with industrial activity. It is the next step after primary. The product is not produced by nature but has to be made and therefore some process of manufacturing is\xa0essential.\xa0STATIC AND DYNAMIC ECONOMY - DEFINITIONIn economics, the word \'static\' refers to a situation which witnesses absolutely no changes. Static economy is a timeless economy where there are no changes at all. The fundamental factors of the economy like the size of population, availability of capital, methods of production, nature of organisation and people\'s wants remain static without any alteration. During British rule, the Indian economy was a static economy.The word \'dynamic\' refers to drastic changes or continuous change. Dynamic economics is the study of the variations that take place in an economy. It analyses the process of change that takes place from time to time in an economy. In a dynamic economy, the size of the population, availability of capital, methods of production, nature of organisation and people\'s wants keep on changing continuously. After Independence, the Indian economy has got transformed into a dynamic economy.TERTIARY SECTOR - DEFINITIONThe\xa0tertiary sector\xa0helps in the development of the primary and secondary sectors. This sector\xa0does not produce a good but they are an aid or a support for the production\xa0process.\xa0Since this sector generates services rather than goods, the tertiary sector is also called the\xa0service sector. |

Explain the forms of power sharing (5mark question) |
| Answer» Different forms of power-sharing in modern democracies are:(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. | |
