January 2018 Edition 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. It lights the whole sky. ~Hafiz We humans are rational beings. We need logics to understand the phenomena happening around us. This inquisitive nature of humans has led to various discoveries, inventions and other scientific advances. Despite all this, there are still some questions which remain unanswered and have remained so since the beginning of the time. The questions like- How and why time came into being? How and why the universe came into being? What is the purpose of human life on this earth? And the biggest puzzle that boggles our minds is on death and after-death phenomena. Ajit Singh, DIG (Retd) Similarly, we need answers to the social phenomena happening around us. The most disturbing question is that despite possessing a rational mind, why many amongst us wish to be the slaves of illegitimate fantasies? The purpose might be to satisfy the queries that I have mentioned above. I am talking about the blind faith that millions of Indians have invested in various religious institutions, sects, deras et al. I call faith an “investment”, because faith is something which is expected to yield manifolds. As a rational being, I would like to invest my time, my intellect, my energy and my trust somewhere I can get a return from. That return may be in the form of answers to the above mentioned questions or simply a feeling of peace and solace and ultimately make me more humane. But does and should faith lead to a path of inhumanity, wealth amassment, violence, hate and lies? This question is more important than any other question mentioned in this article. There is a fine line difference between “faith” and “blind faith”. Faith leads you to truth, light and love. Blind faith leads to darkness, violence, irrationality, hopelessness, shattered expectations, broken trust and ultimately lower self-confidence. Faith helps you reach insurmountable heights. Indian society has laid emphasis on religion since ages. We have tied to discover things with closed eyes and folded hands. And through our scriptures, we find that our Vedic ancestors already knew the things that were discovered during renaissance in the western world. We should take pride in our ancestral knowledge. But I think presently, we are falling in to the dark valleys of hopelessness and despair. There are stark differences of intellects and lifestyles in our society. And then there are penumbral regions, wherein even the educated masses are following the illegitimate religious institutions. Where are these phenomena leading our society to? Swami Vivekananda once said, “Faith, faith, faith in ourselves, faith, faith in God---this is the secret of greatness. If you have faith in the three hundred and thirty millions of your mythological gods, and in all the Gods which foreigners have now and again introduced into your midst, and still have no faith in yourselves, there is no salvation for you. Have faith in yourselves, and stand up on that faith and be strong; that is what we need. “ And, I believe that the answers to the questions should be sought within and not without. Have faith in yourself, in your faculties, in your capabilities and the God inside you. Team BrainyIAS has tried its best to present you the best monthly current affairs in the best format. Have faith and learn from the best team. I wish you all the success!! www.brainyias.com BrainyIAS (84594-00000) Contents Preface

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.
