    International Journal of Social Science and Economic Research ISSN: 2455-8834 Volume: 03, Issue: 12 "December 2018" IMPACT OF PMJDY ON URBAN POOR: WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ALLAHABAD VIVEK TRIPATHI D. Phil. Scholar, Nehru Gram Bharati ABSTRACT There can be few ways to get success and many reasons of failure. But lamentably, human being has the tendency to exaggerate success and read failures as ‘gaps’. The same thing has happened with the ‘planning’ of our country, which is accompanied through five year planning pattern. How the circumstances of different sectors is envisage, conceptualized and planned can be best understood through the Five Year Plans (FYPs) of India, which gives an report of the post independence development of the country. After every 5 years the nation gets busy in drafting a plan for next five years but how much time do we devote to analyze the so called ‘gaps’ (if not failures). We try to fill those gaps through remedial measures which really do not emerge from in-depth analysis of gaps in the previous plan, which can occur either at the juncture of planning or during implementation. With the advent of new government in 2014, new aspiration has been started taking shape in the form of policy and planning. The planning has come with an innovative scheme to open an account for all who are devoid of financial inclusion. Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) was launched on 28th August, 2014, for Inclusive growth and democracy. Removal of rural & urban poverty is the two sides of the same coin. Elimination of poverty is achievable.

  • The Age of Akbar
    CHAPTER 3 THE AGE OF AKBAR MUGHAL THEORIES OF KINGSHIP AND STATE POLITY Akbar is generally recognized as the greatest and most capable of the Mughal rulers. Under him Mughal polity and statecraft reached maturity; and under his guidance the Mughals changed from a petty power to a major dynastic state. From his time to the end of the Mughal period, artistic production on both an imperial and sub-imperial level was closely linked to notions of state polity, religion and kingship. Humayun died in 1556, only one year after his return to Hindustan. Upon hearing the call to prayers, he slipped on the steep stone steps of the library in his Din-Panah citadel in Delhi. Humayun's only surviving son and heir- apparent, Akbar, then just fourteen years of age, ascended the throne and ruled until 1605 the expanding Mughal empire. Until about 1561, Akbar was under the control of powerful court factions, first his guardian, Bhairam Khan, and then the scheming Maham Anga, a former imperial wet-nurse. Between about 1560 and 1580, Akbar devoted his energies to the conquest and then the con- solidation of territory in north India. This he achieved through battle, marriage, treaty and, most significantly, administrative reform. Concurrent with these activities, Akbar developed an interest in religion that, while initially a personal concern, ultimately transformed his concept of state. Many of the policies he adopted, such as the renunciation of the poll-tax (jiziya) for non- Muslims, had a solid political basis as well as a personal one, for Akbar, much more than his Mughal predecessors, saw every advantage in maintaining good relations with the Hindu majority.
