College (Autonomous) Pollachi- 642 001 Dr.B.K.Krishnaraj Vanavarayar President NGM College The Department of History reaches yet another land mark in the history of NGM College by organizing International Conference on “Contributions and Impacts of Intellectuals, Ideologists and Reformists towards Socio-political Transformation in 20th century”. The objective of this conference is to give a glimpse of socio-political reformers who fought against social stagnation without spreading hatred. Their models have repeatedly succeeded and they have been able to create a perceptible change in the mindset of the people who were wedded to casteism. History is a great treat into the past. It let us live in an era where we are at present. It helps us to relate to people who influenced the shape of the present day. It enables us to understand how the world worked then and how it works now. It provides us with the frame work of knowledge that we need to build our entire lives. We can learn how things have changed ever since and they are the personalities that helped to change the scenario.

  • Tiruppur Kumaran
    EDITORIAL Dear Members, Fellow Professionals, Friends and Well wishers, “Happy Independence Day” and Seasons Greetings to One and All! 15th August brings us the memories of freedom struggles and the struggles later for taking care of ourselves and growth from utter poverty. We are all aware of our great heritage, civilization and prosperity and our reduction to an utterly poor nation caused by almost 600 years of invasions, loots and colonial rule. Though being a vast and diversified Nation, our founding fathers decided that we will be united and will remain a Democracy and today one of our greatest prides is that we remain one of the largest democracies of the World. The demand for growth from the first day of Independence was very urgent as the shortages were in everything starting from food to all basic needs. From then till now, it is commented by many that Democracy has been a factor that slowed down the speed of growth, but we have always considered Democracy as an important and uncompromisable value. A broad look at growth since independence can make us rightly feel proud that there has been lot of progress with lot of promises for the future. We have lots of many things today if not everything, but still the poverty looms in many sections of people and ‘below poverty line’ numbers are scaring. One of the reasons for it can be attributed to increasing number of ‘internal looters’ who are not disowned or punished fast due to our democratic and legal systems. In terms of Energy and comforts, there have lot of progress since 1947/ 1950 and just the example of Electricity will illustrate this.
