4.Write short notes on(i) The leather Industry(ii) The iron and steel Industry.(iii) The cotton Industry(iv) The information and technology industries

Answer»

1)Leather is one of the most widely traded commodities globally. The growth in demand for leather is driven by the fashion industry, especially footwear. Apart from this, furniture and interior design industries, as well as the automotive industry also demand leather. The leather industry has a place of prominence in the Indian economy due to substantial export earnings and growth.

The Indian leather industry accounts for around 12.93 per cent of the world’s leather production of hides/skins. The country ranks second in terms of footwear and leather garments production in the world and accounts for 9.57 per cent of the world’s footwear production.

Export highlightsIndia’s leather industry has grown drastically, transforming from a mere raw material supplier to a value-added product exporter.

2) The quality and quantity of the iron and steel industry of a country, greatly influ­ences the nature and type of the industrial development. Iron and steel industry truly forms the basis not only of the industrial structure but of the very way of life in the modern world.

The economic growth of both developed and developing country is largely dependent on its steel-making capacity.

The usefulness of iron and steel as a metal is because of its certain qualities such as:

(i) Great strength and toughness,

(ii) Great elasticity,

(iii) Relatively high ductility,

(iv) Low cost and ease of production,

(v) Alloy-ability, etc.

Iron can be alloyed with many other metals to produce special steels for diverse and specific needs. Small amounts of chromium in steel improve hardening qualities. When alloyed with nickel it has increased toughness and ductility, and becomes highly resistant to corrosion, so it is used for armour planting. The addition of 12 per cent manganese to steel imparts great toughness and resistance to abrasion. Similarly addition of cobalt, molybdenum, tungsten, vanadium, etc., produces special type of steel useful for various purposes

!!!)The textile industry occupies a unique position in indian economy...it conteibutes significantly to industrial production...it also generates employment directly or indirectly...it contributes 4 percent towards gdp.....it has close links with agriculture and provides a living to farmers..cotton boll pluckers and workers engaged in ginning..spinning..weaving..dyeing..designing..packaging ..tailoring and sewing...it also supports other industries such as chemicals and dyes..mill stores...packaging materials and engineering works and many more

Iv)

During the past decade, the Indian IT industry has been experiencing a dramatic growth. It grew from Rs.4.7 billion in 1991 to Rs.755.47 billion in 2003, accounting for nearly 3% of the GDP. The revenues generated from software exports reached $10.4 billion for the financial year 2003 with a 30% growth over the previous year. The main factors which contributed to the success story of the Indian IT industry are:

-Support from the government in the form of industrial parks, which enjoy various incentives and tax benefits.

-Liberal export import policy.

-Strict quality policies adopted by the IT industry in terms of reliability, stability and maintainability by adhering to the standards laid down by the ISO

The Indian IT Industry has grown from a mere USD 150 million in 1990-91 to USD 50 billion in 2006-07 with annual growth rates of nearly 30% in the last 10 years.

2 Descibeoccupations in the Vedic Age!

Answer»

Early Vedic society is considered essentially to be pastoral. Animals like horses, goats , sheep and cattle are mentioned but the large no of reference to cow makes it clear that it was the most important.

Agriculture is considered secondary to pastoralism. Evidence sited for this reasoning are: There are few references to agriculture in books, mention of only one cerealOther occupations mentioned are warriors, priests , cattle rearers, hunters barbers,carpenters, chariot makers(?)

There is evidence of trade existing in rig vedic era apart from inconclusive references to wealthy people and to river transport

In the later vedic period agriculture was the main occupation that time.mainly they were crop wheat,rice,barley,beans and seasum.Tin,silver and iron was known to the people.

Have there been any major/minor changes in theoccupations in today's villages as compared to thosein ancient times?

Answer»

Difference between Villages in Ancient India and Villages of Today!

Mahatma Gandhi is often quoted as having said: “Real India lives in its villages.” The fact that in the early decades of the 20th century, India’s urban segment constituted only 11 per cent of the total population gave strength to his argument. It was the villages in which 89 per cent of the population lived. That made India an agricultural country.

The development of Village India, for Gandhi, was the development of India. Illiteracy, ignorance, and poverty characterized the vast population of rural India. Gandhi organized mass movements to draw attention to the problems of the rural people, and also to involve the peasants in the freedom struggle. Social scientists also became interested in studying rural problems, particularly the deteriorating rural economy.

le30. Why do all food chains start with producers ?

Answer»

The food chain, which is sometimes called a food web, starts with plants because they are the producers. You cannot have a food chain until food has been produced. Plants are called producers because they use energy from the sun to make their own food through a process called photosynthesis.

Thus the living part of afood chainalwaysstartswithplantlife and ends with an animal.Plants arecalled producers because theyareable to use light energy from the sun to producefood(sugar) from carbon dioxide and water. Animals cannot make their ownfoodso theymusteatplantsand/or other animals.

describe how east Indian companie transferred from a trade company to a territory power

Answer»

In 1858, the responsibility of managing the affairs of the Indian states got transferred to the British Crown.

The English East India Company was set up in 1600 when Queen Elizabeth I granted a charter giving the company sole rights in England to establish trade relations with the East. The Portuguese, Dutch and French were trading with India much before the British.

India was famous for its great riches - silk, cotton and spices and there was stiff competition amongst various European companies for these products. This led to many fierce battles between the trading companies. However, trading by fortifying settlements led to conflicts among the local rulers.

In 1651, the first English factory was established on the banks of river Hugli in West Bengal. As trade expanded, they started building a fort around the factory and eventually bribed the Mughals to give the Company zamindari rights over three surrounding villages.

In 1717, the Company convinced Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb to grant a royal order or farman for duty free trade.

Nawabs Murshid Quli Khan, Alivardi Khan and Sirajuddaulah were against the Company acquiring territories and expanding its trade in Bengal. The nawabs demanded huge tributes from the Company to continue trading and prevented it from minting coins and extending its fortifications.

All these conflicts between the nawabs and the Company eventually resulted in the famous Battle of Plassey, which marked the start of the Company rule in India.

Explain Anglo-Sikh relations during the nineteenth century

Answer»

Recently many scholars, especially in the West, have contended that the assertion of a distinct Sikh identity in the mid-nineteenth century was very largely due to advertent support extended by the British. W.H. McLeod holds that "there were several Sikh identities available during the period immediately following the 1849 annexation and one such identity (the militant Khalsa version) was vigorously promoted by the British in order to serve their own military purposes. The same identity was accepted by the stronger1 of the Singh Sabha leaders and became the focus of their reforming activities late in the nineteenth century."2 Richard Fox refers to the Sikhs in the Indian army "transmuted into Singhs by the British."3 Scholars like N.G. Barrier and Rajiv Kapur have also referred to the recruiting and organisational policy of the British Indian army as the major instrument for fostering the distinct Sikh identity. Rajiv Kapur observes : "Recruitment into the army provided strong encouragement for the development and maintenance of a separate Sikh identity."4 Barrier5 and Fox6 both find themselves caught in an intricate and incoherent analysis of the British motives in dealing with the Sikhs.
