J. H. TERLINGEN, HOOGLERAAR IN DE FACULTEIT DER LETTEREN, VOLGENS BESLUIT VAN DE SENAAT IN HET OPENBAAR TE VERDEDIGEN OP VRIJDAG 10 NOVEMBER 1961 TE 14 UUR DOOR JOSEPH MINATTUR geboren te Cherpunkal, Kerala, India MARTINUS NIJHOFF 'S-GRAVENHAGE PREFACE This study is intended to present to the reader the main provisions of law affecting freedom of the press in India. It is specially concerned with examining how far freedom of the press obtains in free India. It is proposed to discuss constitutional provisions and their appücation through various legislative measures with a view to seeing whether these provisions are sufficiently protective of this freedom. The intro­ ductory chapter attempts to indicate what is meant by freedom of the press. In the first chapter constitutional provisions are set out and discussed. The next five chapters deal, in the main, with statutory provisions relating to this freedom. The concluding chapter purports to make certain suggestions in relation to repeal or amendment of a few of these provisions. It may be mentioned that this study deals only with freedom of the press in normal times. The subject of civil liberties in India during a period of emergency has been dealt with in the present writer's doctoral thesis, Emergency Powers in the States of Southern Asia (London Uni­ versity, 1959) In the preparation of this study, I have benefited from the guidance and encouragement given by several persons and the assistance and facihties provided by various institutions. I wish to express my thanks to all of them. It was a generous grant from the Netherlands Universities Foun­ dation for International Co-operation that enabled me to undertake this study. While expressing my gratitude to the Foundation, I wish to thank specially Dr H. G. Quik and Mr F. P. Thomassen of the Foundation for their unfailing helpfulness and kindness. The assistance rendered by the staffs of the libraries of the India House, London, the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, London, the Institute of Social Studies, The Hague, the School of Oriental and African Studies, London, the Law Institute, Nijmegen and the Peace vi PREFACE Palace, The Hague, is gratefully acknowledged. My thanks are also due to a number of persons who helped me in various ways during the period of my research. It is impossible to name all of them in this brief preface ; special mention may, however, be made of Madame M. Colbach-Scheifer, Dr. J. M. С van Driel, Mr Z. Kahn, Mr J. В. M. Roes, Mr L.

In 1947, the country commenced its long march to overcome the colonial legacy of economic underdevelopment, gross poverty, near-total illiteracy, wide prevalence of diseases, and stark social inequality and injustice. Achieving independence was only the first stop, the first break—the end of colonial political control: centuries of backwardness was now to be overcome, the promises of the freedom struggle to be fulfilled, and people‘s hopes to be met. The task of nation-building was taken up by the people and leaders with a certain elan and determination and with confidence in their capacity to succeed. When Nehru assumed office as the first Prime Minister of India, there were a myriad of issues lying in front of him, vying for his attention. Nehru knew that it was highly important that he prioritized things. For him, ―First things must come first and the first thing is the security and stability of India.‖ In the words of eminent political scientist W.H Morris- Jones, the imminent task was to ―hold things together, to ensure survival, to get accustomed to the feel of being in the water, to see to it that the vessels keep afloat‖.

  • The Revolt of 1857
    1A THE REVOLT OF 1857 1. Objectives: After going through this unit the student wilt be able:- a) To understand the background of the Revolt 1857. b) To explain the risings of Hill Tribes. c) To understand the causes of The Revolt of 1857. d) To understand the out Break and spread of the Revolt of 1857. e) To explain the causes of the failure of the Revolt of 1857. 2. Introduction: The East India Company's rule from 1757 to 1857 had generated a lot of discontent among the different sections of the Indian people against the British. The end of the Mughal rule gave a psychological blow to the Muslims many of whom had enjoyed position and patronage under the Mughal and other provincial Muslim rulers. The commercial policy of the company brought ruin to the artisans and craftsman, while the divergent land revenue policy adopted by the Company in different regions, especially the permanent settlement in the North and the Ryotwari settlement in the south put the peasants on the road of impoverishment and misery. 3. Background: The Revolt of 1857 was a major upheaval against the British Rule in which the disgruntled princes, to disconnected sepoys and disillusioned elements participated. However, it is important to note that right from the inception of the East India Company there had been resistance from divergent section in different parts of the sub continent. This resistance offered by different tribal groups, peasant and religious factions remained localized and ill organized. In certain cases the British could putdown these uprisings easily, in other cases the struggle was prolonged resulting in heavy causalities.

    IASBUZZ JANUARY 2018 EDITION BrainyIAS (84594-00000) Preface Even after all this time the Sun never tells the earth, “You owe me”. Look what happens with a love like that.
