The variety in cropping pattern is the result of physical economical and social factors. The physical environment provides a wide range of possibilities for growing crops, but the social and economical conditions determine as to which the crops to be grown are and how much of it is to be devoted to different crops.

  • The Impact of Modern Education on the Ruling Caste, the Urs, in the Princely State of Mysore
    142 ■ Research Note ■ Forming a Class of Gentlemen: the Impact of Modern Education on the Ruling Caste, the Urs, in the Princely State of Mysore ● Aya Ikegame 1. Introduction In the second half of the nineteenth century, modern and western education became a crucial matter not only for the Brahmins or liter- ary classes who already occupied high status in the colonial adminis- tration, but also for the Kshatriyas, especially princes and royals [Allen and Dwivedi 1998; Price 1996]. It may be argued that they wished to maintain, through such education, their authority as 'proper rulers' both from the point of view of their people and from that of the colonial power)) But what is a 'proper ruler'? What did it mean to be a king or a Kshatriya ruler in colonial times? The topic, which will be discussed here, concerns the nature and form of modern education introduced among Indian rulers, royals, and their caste members, the Urs, in the princely state of Mysore from the end of the nineteenth to the early twentieth century.

  • Socio-Economic and Political Status of Panchayats Elected Representatives (A Study of Mysore District-Karnataka)
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 19, Issue 5, Ver. I (May. 2014), PP 51-55 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Socio-economic and political status of panchayats Elected representatives (A Study of Mysore District-Karnataka) H. M. Mohan Kumari1 and Dr. Ashok Kumar, H2 Abstract: The paper presents the structure and functions of Panchayati raj Institutions. It also highlights the social composition of elected members and their participation in the decision making process in PRIs. Liberal Democracy is one of the basic features of the Indian Constitution. Mahatma Gandhi advocated Panchayat Raj even before Independence. The further of the Nation felt that as issues at the village levels must be addressed by the people only under self-governance and the State or the Central Governments only facilitate such self-rule through grants and by conferring autonomy on them. Panchayat system had earlier an informal setup to redress the local issues and problems of communities which were mainly social and economic in nature. They were popular institutions at micro levels and the main objective was to keep the local community in harmony and to encourage participation in the process of development. The Mysore Government in 1902 passed the Mysore Local Boards Act with a view to revitaling the rural local Government. In 1918, the Mysore Government enacted the Mysore Local Boards and Village Panchayat Act making provisions for elected representatives at the district and taluk levels. After Independence, District and Taluk Boards were set up by the Mysore Government. The first independent legislation on Panchayat Raj Institutions was enacted by the Ramakrishna Hegde Government in 1983 and was brought into effect from April 1987 with the first elections to these local bodies in rural areas.
