D. College of Engineering, Abstract Sevagram Samyukta Maharashtra Movement was the most powerful movement after independence. The movement received active support from Maharashtra people. The inclusion of Bombay in the Maharashtra state is considered as the victory of the movement. Marathi Newspapers “Navyug”, Maratha, Samyukta Maharashtra Patrika, Prabhat, Belgaon Samachar, Navakal etc. played a key role to make this movement more mass base. “Maratha” was considered as the mouthpiece of the movement. Marathi Newspapers spearheaded the demand for the creation of a separate Marathi-speaking state with the city of Bombay as its capital. Keywords: movement, mouthpiece, spearheaded. 1. Introduction The rise and growth of the Samyukta Maharashtra movement must be studied not merely in the general context of the country-wide agitation for linguistic States but also in the particular context of the society and politics in Maharashtra Language is closely related to culture and therefore to the customs of people. Besides, the massive spread of education and growth of mass literacy can only occur through the medium of the mother tongue. The history of Samyukta Maharashtra movement can be stretched back to 1920s. Lokmanya Tilak expressed the need to impart national education through mother tongue.

  • Idea of Emancipation and Discourse on Caste in Colonial Western India (Maharashtra)
    Idea of Emancipation and Discourse on Caste in Colonial Western India (Maharashtra) Santosh Pandhari Suradkar Résumé L’idée d’émancipation et les discours sur les castes dans l’Inde occidentale coloniale (Maharashtra), denière partie partie du XIXème siècle. De vifs débats sur les castes eurent lieu à la fin du 19ème siècle Maharashtra entre les nationalistes, les mouvements des castes inférieures, les missionnaires britanniques, les orientalistes et les idéologues. Aussi, cette période dans le Maharashtra peut être caractérisée comme un âge d’ouverture des masses aux idées de démocratie, de liberté, d’égalité et de fraternité. La caste a toujours été au centre de la politique moderne indienne même si cette structure du pouvoir remonte à l’Inde médiévale. La caste fut exploitée en tant que principe central dans la distribution du pouvoir et des ressources matérielles durant la période coloniale. Mais dans le même temps, le colonialisme créa un espace démocratique et moderne; néanmoins cet espace fut monopolisé par les castes supérieures. La lutte nationaliste contre le pouvoir impérial avait alors pour but d’établir l’hégémonie de classe. Les mouvements des non-brahmanes et des basses castes, actifs pendant la période coloniale, avaient deux objectifs : une plus grande mobilité de caste-classe et l’éradiction du système de caste. Celui-ci joua un rôle important dans la détermination du contenu de la mobilisation politique et l’institutionnalisation de la démocratie moderne. La dynamique de caste et de classe reste la caractéristique de la complexité de la politique indienne. Le système de caste et le patriarcat brahmanique ont toujours travaillé de concert dans le maintien du système de caste et de la distribution inégale des ressources.

  • I: SWADESHI MOVEMENT (1905-19011) Dr
    I: SWADESHI MOVEMENT (1905-19011) Dr. A. Ravisankar, Ph.D., 1. This was a comprehensive movement that lasted 6 years. 2. Although this was regarded as a cultural movement celebrating the rich harvest of history- the rich traditions like folk music, paintings, the culture of Bengal was highlighted. But very soon, it got integrated with the political upheavals that followed after the partition of Bengal. Krishna Kumar Mitra, in his newspaper, ‘Sanjivani’ highlighted the prospects of national education and ‘Economic Swadeshi’. 3. Very soon, this movement started gaining momentum with the help of the entire Bengali middle- class intelligentsia. 4. After the partition of Bengal, the Swadeshi movement got a big boost, because of the integration of the boycott movement with the Swadeshi movement. 5. Tilak called this movement “Bahishkar Yoga“ and most of the Bengali intelligentsia that was initially not in favour of the boycott movement got integrated with the Swadeshi movement. 6. This was primary learning for the national movement. According to Bal Gangadhar Tilak, and Lala Lajpat Rai, it was training in ‘self-determination’, ‘self-help’, and ‘self-reliance’. 7. In fact, the Swadeshi movement can be called as a nursery of the further course that the Indian National Movement was to take. The programmes and ideas that were practised during the Swadeshi movement became the hallmark of the Gandhian movement as well. 8. Surendranath Bannerjee said that it is a ‘protectionist movement’. And that it ‘generates the material prosperity of the masses’. 9. Very soon, the Swadeshi movement spread to different parts of India, like Bihar, U.P., C.P., Bombay and Madras.

  • Gandhi: 'Hind Swaraj' and Other Writings
    Hind Swaraj is Mahatma Gandhi's fundamental work. It is a key to understanding not only his life and thought but also the politics of South Asia in the first half of the twentieth century. For the first time this volume presents the 1910 text of Hind Swaraj and includes Gandhi's own Preface and Foreword (not found in other editions) and anno- tations by the editor. In his Introduction, Anthony Parel sets the work in its historical and political contexts. He analyses the significance of Gandhi's experiences in England and South Africa, and examines the intellectual cross-currents from East and West that affected the formation of the mind and character of one of the twentieth century's truly outstanding figures. The second part of the volume contains some of Gandhi's other writings, including his correspondence with Tolstoy, Nehru and others. Short bibliographical synopses of prominent figures mentioned in the text and a chronology of important events are also included as aids to the reader. CAMBRIDGE TEXTS IN MODERN POLITICS EDITORS John Dunn King's College, Cambridge Geoffrey Hawthorn Faculty of Social and Political Science, University of Cambridge Political aspirations in the twentieth century are usually expressed in the political languages of Western Europe and North America. In Latin America, Africa and Asia, however, in the movements of 'national liberation' from colonial rule, in the justification of new states, and in the opposition to such states, these aspirations have also drawn on other traditions, and invented new ones. Outside the West, the languages of modern politics and the ideas these languages embody are nowhere simple, and almost nowhere deriva- tively Western.

  • Physical Preservation of Newspaper Resources in the Libraries in India
    PHYSICAL PRESERVATION OF NEWSPAPER RESOURCES IN THE LIBRARIES IN INDIA Gouse Riyajuddin and D. Chandran ABSTRACT The twentieth century witnessed a tremendous growth of news papers in India. The newspaper played a vital role in the dissemination of information during the pre-independence India. Within a short time after independence, by 1954, “there was a rapid growth in the number and circulation of daily newspapers in the country both in English and other Indian languages”. The function of a newspaper library is “to act as repository of all information required by the editorial and management departments of a newspaper”. It is not enough if the information is stored but more important is to organize the collection in such a way that any information can be retrieved instantly. The present paper deals with the existing patterns of preserving the newspaper resources in their libraries and storage of information in some of the Telugu and English dailies in Andhra Pradesh and also recommends the modern methods of preservation in the newspaper libraries. INTRODUCTION Newspapers are the mirror of society and also the agents of social change and the creators of attitude and situations. They conduct companies, carry on propaganda, influence and educative voters, canalize public opinion and mould government policies. The press also makes a direct and visible impact on the functioning of the administration and political systems of the country. It provides comprehensive and objective information on all aspects of the country’s social, economic, political and cultural life. Newspapers bring every person into touch with the active world. As Mahatma Gandhi said, ’One of the objectives of a newspaper is to understand the popular feeling and give expression to it, another is to arouse among the people certain desirable sentiments and third is fearlessly to expose popular defects.
