    Nationalism in India Lesson

    DC-1 SEM-2 Paper: Nationalism in India Lesson: Beginning of constitutionalism in India Lesson Developer: Anushka Singh Research scholar, Political Science, University of Delhi 1 Institute of Lifelog learning, University of Delhi Content: Introducing the chapter What is the idea of constitutionalism A brief history of the idea in the West and its introduction in the colony The early nationalists and Indian Councils Act of 1861 and 1892 More promises and fewer deliveries: Government of India Acts, 1909 and 1919 Post 1919 developments and India’s first attempt at constitution writing Government of India Act 1935 and the building blocks to a future constitution The road leading to the transfer of power The theory of constitutionalism at work Conclusion 2 Institute of Lifelog learning, University of Delhi Introduction: The idea of constitutionalism is part of the basic idea of liberalism based on the notion of individual’s right to liberty. Along with other liberal notions,constitutionalism also travelled to India through British colonialism. However, on the one hand, the ideology of liberalism guaranteed the liberal rightsbut one the other hand it denied the same basic right to the colony. The justification to why an advanced liberal nation like England must colonize the ‘not yet’ liberal nation like India was also found within the ideology of liberalism itself. The rationale was that British colonialism in India was like a ‘civilization mission’ to train the colony how to tread the path of liberty.1 However, soon the English educated Indian intellectual class realised the gap between the claim that British Rule made and the oppressive and exploitative reality of colonialism.Consequently,there started the movement towards autonomy and self-governance by Indians.

It competes with the pastime, popularised in the early decades after Independence, to absorb all divergent streams of the national movement under one banner of the ‘Indian National Congress’. This leads to eulogisation and ‘canonisation’ and here, one must examine the recent attempt to foist Vinayak Damodar Savarkar as the most noteworthy icon of Andaman’s infamous Cellular Jail.

It boasts of 170 notified monuments, which includes three UNESCO World Heritage Sites as well as many contemporary buildings. The city is a symbol of the country’s rich past and a thriving present. The Capital is a charming mix of old and new. Facilities like the metro network, expansive flyovers, the swanky airport terminal and modern high- rise buildings make it a world-class city. Glancing through the past few years, it is noticed that Bollywood has been highly responsive of the offerings of Delhi. More than 200 films have been shot here in the past five years.

  • Tracing Poetry of Protest in India: Dalit, Muslim and Feminist Perspectives

    Tracing Poetry of Protest in India: Dalit, Muslim and Feminist Perspectives

    47 Tracing poetry of protest in India: Dalit, Muslim and feminist perspectives a a b Ansab Amir Khan *, Qudratullah Faraz , Zeba Afrin * [email protected] aStudent, Aligarh Muslim University, Zakir Hussain College, Aligarh, 202001 bStudent, Aligarh Muslim University, Department of Law, Aligarh, 202001 Abstract Poetry has always been one of the most critical and vivid forms of expression available to humankind, and this paper seeks to trace and explore the origin, history, diversity, and methodology of the various kinds of poetry that were used to register protest or dissent against authority figures in India, particularly through the lens of the Dalit community, Indian Muslims and Indian feminists. The research aims to trace the similarities and differences in the way each of these communities began to use the creative medium of poetry to lodge their disagreements with the regimes, social order, or socio-political norms at various junctures of India's history, from the colonial past to a thriving democracy, while also exploring the contrast between relatively older instances to the contemporary times. Eminent poets whose words have had a lasting impact on their communities' social and political movements have found a place in the article as well, with snippets of their work showcasing the glimpse of the politics of their poetry. The paper also attempts to gauge the intersectional aspects of these three communities' literary work and find gaps and holes in places that have not been researched to a satisfactory degree. The paper concludes with remarks on the changes and latest trends observed by these communities regarding their poetry and protests.
  • The Hidden Gem of Communal Spirit : Phool Walon Ki Sair

    The Hidden Gem of Communal Spirit : Phool Walon Ki Sair

    laosnuk&2021 Vol. III Issue-1 ISSN 2581-9917 THE HIDDEN GEM OF COMMUNAL SPIRIT : PHOOL WALON KI SAIR Shiza Parveen* INTRODUCTION India, with a population of more than 135.26 crore, is a secular country where people of different cultures co-exist. There is no state sponsored or national religion thus making it a home for everyone with different religious affiliations to come together and live with one another. People are free to practice any or no religion as per their beliefs as the Article 25-28 of the Indian Constitution extends the right to freedom of religion in India. Diverse communities embracing and respecting each other’s culture is also something one can find in this country. From Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs to Christians, everyone living together and celebrating each other’s festivities shows the communal spirit of India in its purest form. Communal Harmony is a situation where people from different religious backgrounds live together in peace and respecting each other’s cultures, free from hatred or any kind of violence. There is affection and love among the citizens. It strongly promotes non-violence and peace towards each other and nation at large. Sadhbhavana Diwas (Communal Harmony Day) celebrated on 20th August every year in India is based on the idea to promote equality, along with acceptance of different religions by all because each citizen of the nation has the right to follow the religion they believe in and intolerance threatens this right. But despite being a secular nation, India still faces problems of communal disharmony leading to communal riots in our country.
  • Ram Prasad Bismil - Poems

    Ram Prasad Bismil - Poems

    Classic Poetry Series Ram Prasad Bismil - poems - Publication Date: 2013 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Ram Prasad Bismil(11 June 1897 - 19 December 1927) Ram Prasad Bismil (Hindi: ??? ?????? '???????') was an Indian revolutionary who participated in Mainpuri Conspiracy of 1918, and the Kakori conspiracy of 1925, both against British Empire. As well as being a freedom fighter, he was also a patriotic poet. Ram, Agyat and Bismil were known as his pen names which he used in Urdu and Hindi poetry. But, he became popular with the last name "Bismil" only. He was associated with Arya Samaj where he got inspiration from Satyarth Prakash, a book written by Swami Dayanand Saraswati. He also had a confidential connection with Lala Har Dayal through his guru Swami Somdev, who was a renowned preacher of Arya Samaj. Bismil was one of the founder members of the revolutionary organisation Hindustan Republican Association. Bhagat Singh praised him as a great poet- writer of Urdu and Hindi, who had also translated the books Catherine from English and Bolshevikon Ki Kartoot from Bengali. Several inspiring patriotic verses are attributed to him. The famous poem "Sarfaroshi ki Tamanna" is also popularly attributed to him, although some progressive writers have remarked that 'Bismil' Azimabadi actually wrote the poem and Ram Prasad Bismil immortalized it. <b> Early life Ram Prasad Bismil was born at Shahjahanpur, a historical city of Uttar Pradesh (U.P.) in a religious Hindu family of Murlidhar and Moolmati. <b> Grandfather's migration </b> His grandfather Narayan Lal was migrated from his ancestral village Barbai and settled at a very distant place Shahjahanpur in U.P.

Summary Mehrauli is an ancient settlement which came into prominence in late 12th century AD when the Qutab Minar was built here by Qutub-ud-din Aibak, founder of the slave dynasty which conquered and ruled over parts of Northern India. Today Mehrauli is a bustling urban village of South Delhi and it is spread over an area of about 400 hectares, which includes an Archeological Park of nearly 100 hectares. Mehrauli settlement as well as the surrounding area is rich with historic monuments and archeological remains. It is proposed to initiate a heritage conservation project in Mehrauli with the focus on community involvement such that the heritage assets become the joint responsibility of the local community and the State. To achieve this it will be necessary to repair the urban habitat simultaneously with the repair of historic buildings. The urban heritage of Mehrauli is perhaps best expressed in the annual community celebration called the Phool Walon ki Sair. This festival is still celebrated every year in Mehrauli although its importance in community life has diminished in recent years due to changing demographics. Urban infrastructure upgradation has to be an essential part of the conservation strategy so that the community benefits overall. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi is undertaking the preparation of Local Area Plans (LAP) which will focus urban development at the scale of the electoral ward and the neighbourhood.
