It gives me great pleasure to offer my tribute to the memory of Vithalbhai Patel on the occasion of his birth centenary. This eminent . son of India was a great parliamentarian whose services in the cause of the country's freedom will ever be remembered. As President of the Central Legislative Assembly during pre-independence days, he left an indelible imprint of his forceful personality not only on the pr~ ceedings of the legislature but on the freedom movement itseH. He insisted that the impartiality and independence of the Chair were beyond question, and that was the only way to safeguard the rights and privileges of members to the fullest measure. I hope Vithalbhai Patel's life and example of hard work and sel1less service will prove inspiring to the present and successive generations of legislators and parliamentarians. (v. V. GIRl) MESSAGE FROM THE VICE-PRESIDENT VICE-PRESIDENT INDIA NEW DELIU 14th October 1973 I am glad to learn that the Lok Sabha Secretariat will bring out a commemoration volume on the occasion of the Birth Centenary of the late Shri Vithalbhai Patel. Shri Vithalbhai Patel was an eminent patriot who rendered valuable service to the country in many fields. He commenced his public life as a member of the Borsad Talukha Board but rapidly moved to larger spheres such as the Bombay Legislative Council, the Imperial Legisla- tive Council and the Central Legislative Assembly. He will be long remembered in the annals of India's parliamentary life as the firsy Indian to become the President of the Central Legislative As8eiiibiY- an office which he held with special distinction. As Speaker he was responsible for creating many healthy and sound traditions and practices in Parliament. While unveiling the portrait of Shri Vithalbhai Patel in Parliament House on March 8, 1948, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru said that the Speaker is "the symbol of the nation's freedom and liberty." Shri Vithalbhai Patel as Speaker of the Central Legislative Assembly fitted this description perfectly. I congratulate the Lok Sabha Secretariat on its decision to publish a commemoration volume as a mark of tribute to Shri Vithalbhai Patel, and wish the project success. (G. S. PATIIAK) MESSAGE FROM THE PRIME MINISTER PRIME MINISTER'S HOUSE NEW DELw. October 2, 1973. Shri Vithalbhai Patel, the centenary of whose birth we celebrate this year, \Vasa fighter and a parliamentarian of great distinction. As President of the Central Legislative Assembly, Vithalbhai Patel's main concern was to wrest more power to the people. He brought lustre to the parliamentary tradition and all freedom fighters were thrilled by his rulings. On the attainment of Independence we came to have a Parliament which was the unchallenged guardian of national freedom. Its function continues to be the consolidation and enlargement of freedom in its political, economic and social aspects. Parliamentarians must indeed be grateful to Vithalbhai Patel and learn from his life and example. I~ -r --- ../1..: (INDIRA GANDID) MESSAGE /rom THDlU C. P. CHITRARASU Chairman, Tamil Nadu Legislative Council FORT ST. GEORGE MADRAS-9 October 10, 1973 It is gratifying to note that the Lok Sabha Secretariat is bringing out a Commemoration Volume to celebrate the birth centenary of late Shri Vithalbhai Patel, the first non-official elected President of the Indian (Central) Legislative Assembly. His election marked the ushering in of a new era in Indian Parliamentary history. He was a pioneer in ridding Parliament of the dominant control of the Executive. His rulings were always marked with independence of judgment and sought to maintain the supremacy of the Parliament in all matters. He gave a great impetus to the Conference of Presiding Officers of Parliament and the Legislatures which continues to have its delibera- tions annually to shape nascent Indian democracy. He strove hard to separate the Legislature Secretariat from the control of the Executive Government and after a relentless struggle, achieved this at the Centre. It was remarkable that despite his rulings which were not to the liking of the Government of the day, he had the unique fortune of being re-elected President of the Assembly for a second term. He was a true Speaker and maintained the great traditions of the Office as set up in the House of Commons. I wish all success for the publication of the Commemoration Volume. C. P. CHITRARASU MESSAGE from PULAVAR K. GoVINDAN, M.A. Speaker, Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly FORT ST. GEORG! MADRAS-9 I am happy to learn that the Lok Sabha Secretariat is bringing out a Commemoration Volume to mark the birth Centenary of late Thiru Vithalbhai Patel. We all remember the late Thiru Vithalbhai Patel as the first Indian President of the Central Legislative Assembly. He was firmly convinc- ed that the struggle for Independence must be waged inside the Legislature and outside in the country by propaganda and public pressure. He was a great intellectual and his manner of conducting the Legislative Assembly evoked praise even from the Britishers in the Treasury Benches. His strict impartiality and the great dignity with which he functioned as President of the Assembly will be a model for all of us to follow. Emulating him, let us all set up high standards of Parliamentary conventions on which depends the healthy growth of democracy of Our country. Ie. GOVINDAN ARTICLES A GREAT PATRIOT [Speech of Shri G.

  • Sri Aurobindo's Notion of Boycott and Its Spiritual
    International Journal of History and Philosophical Research Vol.7, No.1, pp.33-40, February 2019 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) SRI AUROBINDO’S NOTION OF BOYCOTT AND ITS SPIRITUAL IMPLICATION Dr. Debashri Banerjee Assistant Professor and Head of the Department , Department of Philosophy , C.R.P. College, Burdwan University, West Bengal, India ABSTRACT: Sri Aurobindo’s theory of Boycott is very important not only in the context of Indian politics but also to understand the inherent salient feature of Indian independence movement taken place in the pre-independent India. His theory concerning boycott has five counterparts, namely economic boycott, educational boycott, administrative boycott, judicial boycott and social boycott, to convey the uniqueness. Sri Aurobindo discovered the spiritual implication behind this theory of boycott which conveys the uniqueness of his thesis. To him the word ‘boycott’ spiritually stands as a means to preach for Zeitgeist both in the form of Kali and Krishna unlike Bankim. His thesis of boycott is commonly misinterpreted as an act of violence but Sri Aurobindo compared it with an act of self-preservance of the Kshatriya. The way of boycott is somewhat similar with concept of svadharma of the Kshatriya. The political battle of boycott seemed necessary to him for bringing the desired Indian independence. In this way the spiritual sense of boycott becomes inseparable with its political sense to Sri Aurobindo. KEYWORDS: Sri Aurobindo, Boycott, Spriritual implication, politics, Indian independence movement. INTRODUCTION In the social-political theory of Sri Aurobindo swaraj seems to be the path mandatory for transforming a common life into the Life Divine and boycott remains as one of its important corollaries.

    1 Department – Political Science and Human Rights Semester- B.A. 2nd Semester Paper- Indian Government and Politics Note- I do not claim the material provided hereunder as my intellectual property as this is the collection from the writings of different scholars uploaded on websites. I have just collected, edited and arranged articles in one file according to syllabus for the purpose of enriching the students for preparation of their exams during the lockdown period. Students can also use various online sources for better understanding. I expressed my heartfelt thanks to all the authors whose writings have been incorporated in preparing this material. Constitutional Development in India Constitution is the basic principles and laws of a nation, state, or social group that determine the powers and duties of the government and guarantee certain rights to the people in it. It is a written instrument embodying the rules of a political or social organization. It is a method in which a state or society is organized and sovereign power is distributed. A constitution is a set of fundamental principles according to which a state is constituted or governed. The Constitution specifies the basic allocation of power in a State and decides who gets to decide what the laws will be. The Constitution first defines how a Parliament will be organized and empowers the Parliament to decide the laws and policies. The Constitution sets some limitations on the Government as to what extent a Government can impose rules and policies on its citizen. These limits are fundamental in the sense that the Government may never trespass them.

    1. SPEECH AT PUBLIC MEETING, CHICACOLE December 3, 1927 You seem to be dividing all the good things with poor Utkal1. I flattered myself with the assumption that my arrival here is one of the good things, for I was going to devote all the twenty days to seeing the skeletons of Orissa; but as you, the Andhras, are the gatekeepers of Orissa on this side, you have intercepted my march. But I am glad you have anticipated me also. After entering Andhra Desh, I have been doing my business with you and I know God will reward all those unknown people who have been co-operating with me who am a self- appointed representative of Daridranarayana. And here, too, you have been doing the same thing. Last night, several sister came and presented me with a purse. But let me tell you this is not after all my tour in Andhra. I am not going to let you alone so easily as this, nor will Deshabhakta Konda Venkatappayya let me alone, because I have toured in some parts of Ganjam. I am under promise to tour Andhra during the early part of next year, and let me hope what you are doing is only a foretaste of what you are going to do next year. You have faith in true non-co-operation. There is the great drink evil, eating into the vitals of the labouring population. I would like you to non-co-operate with that evil without a single thought and I make a sporting proposal, viz., that those who give up drink habit should divide their savings with me on behalf of Daridranarayan.
