Swapna, a small farmer, grows groundnut on her three acres of land. She takes a loan from the moneylender to meet the expenses of cultivation, hoping that her harvest would help repay the loan. Midway through the season the crop is hit by pests and the crop fails. Though Swapna sprays her crops with expensive pesticides, it makes little difference. She is unable to repay the moneylender and the debt grows over the year into a large amount. Next year, Swapna takes a fresh loan for cultivation. It is a normal crop this year. But the earnings are not enough to cover the old loan. She is caught in debt. She has to sell a part of the land to pay off the debt.

 

How would life have been different if she had not taken loan from a money lender and taken loan from  a nationalised bank ?

Two constitutional provisions that make India a Secular State are:

  1. There is no official religion for the Indian State. Unlike the status of Buddhism in Sri Lanka, Islam in Pakistan and Christianity in England, our Constitution does not give a special status to any religion.
  2. At the same time, the Constitution allows the State to intervene in the matters of religion in order to ensure equality within religious communities; for example, it bans untouchability.

If a politician seeks votes on religious line what harm is he doing for the country?

Yes   but also no .



YES     (ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT , ZAMINDARI  ABOLISHED ,  LITERACY, URBANISATION , OCCUPATIONAL MOBILITY )


ALSO 


NO

  1. Even now most people marry within their own caste.
  2. Untouchability has not ended completely despite constitutional prohibition.
  3. Effects of centuries of advantages and disadvantages can be felt today. The caste groups that had access to education under old system have done well, whereas those groups that did not have access to education have lagged behind.
  4. There is a large presence of ‘upper caste’ among the urban middle classes in our country.
  5. Caste continues to be linked to economic status as is evident from National Sample Survey:(CLASS 9 CHAPTER 3)
