  • Essentials of Hindutva.Pdf
    Hindutva SwatantryaVeer V.D. Savarkar Essentials of Hindutva Swatantryaveer Vinayak Damodar Savarkar (1883 – 1966) What is in a name? We hope that the fair Maid of Verona who made the impassioned appeal to her lover to change 'a name that was 'nor hand, nor foot, nor arm, nor face, nor any other part belonging to a man' would forgive us for this our idolatrous attachment to it when we make bold to assert that, 'Hindus we are and love to remain so!' We too would, had we been in the position of that good Friar, have advised her youthful lover to yield to the pleasing pressure of the logic which so fondly urged 'What's in a name? That which we call a rose would smell as sweet by any other name!' For, things do matter more than their names, especially when you have to choose one only of the two, or when the association between them is either new or simple. The very fact that a thing is indicated by a dozen names in a dozen human tongues disarms the suspicion that there is an invariable connection or natural connection or natural concomitance between sound and the meaning it conveys. Yet, as the association of the word with the thing is signifies grows stronger and lasts long, so does the channel which connects the two states of consciousness tend to allow an easy flow of thoughts from one to the other, till at last it seems almost impossible to separate them. And when in addition to this a number of secondary thoughts or feelings that are generally roused by the thing get mystically entwined with the word that signifies it, the name seems to matter as much as the thing itself.

The history of India is also the one which has been created by the common man of India and which is enshrined in the folk stories of India and which has been carried forward by generations. Today, when India is heralding the 75th year of its independence, there can be no greater opportunity than remembering such great men and saluting them respectfully and getting inspiration from them for their contributions, sacrifices, struggles, heroism and martyrdom.

  • History of Agriculture
    CHAPTER -I HISTORY OF AGRICULTURE Introduction Though, Haryana State emerged on the political map of India on 1st November, 1966, the region has been well known in history since the ancient times, as being the cradle of Indian culture and agriculture. The fate of Indian history has also been decided time and again on its soil. Since the Aryans inhabited this area in the second millennium B.C., the mainstay of its economy has always been agriculture and animal husbandry through the ages. Rigveda, the earliest recorded literature of the Aryans, was composed here. The Saraswati river, regarded as the life and the soul of the early Aryans, flowed through this region. Since the earliest times, the region has been playing a vital role in the economic growth of India and has contributed significantly in the agricultural development of this country. Though, archaeological evidences reveal that agriculture was being practised in this region earlier than the Harappan culture, the earliest literary reference is found in the Vaman-Purana. Geographically, Haryana is bounded by the Shiwalik Hills in the North, the Aravali Hills in the South, Yamuna river in the East and the Thar-desert in the West.
