  • August 1.—The Chief Feature of the Week Has Been the Visit of Vallabhbhai J
    1931] BOYCOTT OF R. T. C. A NATIONAL BLUNDER 57 Page 1643, para. 4032 (1) — Kaira, August 1.—The chief feature of the week has been the visit of Vallabhbhai J. Patel and M. K. Gandhi to Borsad. The reason for their visit was ostensibly supposed to be the reconciliation of the Patidar. It will be remembered that many were fined by the Panch as they had paid land revenue before the truce, etc., and the result had been a split. It was at first given out that a compromise had been effected which meant that those who had been mulcted were talked over by Vallabhbhai Patel without getting their money back. This unsatisfactory result was brought to M. K. Gandhi's notice, and it is now understood that M. K. Gandhi is using his influence to get all fines refunded except for a nominal sum of one rupee. 58 D. M. VISITS GANDHI [1931 Conversations were however most secret and held behind closed doors, so that the full extent has not leaked out. Representatives of all affected villages came, and it is noteworthy that the recommencement of a fresh and forceful struggle in December is being talked about, unless complete Swaraj is obtained at the Round Table Conference. The Sub-Inspector, Kathana, reports talk is as follows : " Government are not observing truce terms. Attachments are being carried out. It is doubtful whether M. K. Gandhi will go to the Round Table Conference. If Government breaks the truce terms, the movement should be started dangerously, and all Government servants should be boycotted." Proposals for intensifying picketting of liquor and cloth shops were considered.

  • Haveri District and the Indian Freedom Movement
    © 2019 JETIR August 2019, Volume 6, Issue 8 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Haveri District and the Indian freedom movement * Mamata Sawakar, Asst Professor, Dept of Political Science, Govt First Grade College,Ranebennur **Dr.Prasannakumar.K, Asst Professor, Dept of Political Science, Sahyadri Arts & Commerce College, Shimoga. Abstract The one great blessing that the unification of India through the British rule had brought about was the rise and growth of a sense of national unity, however vague and uncertain it might have been in the initial stages; and this conception was strengthened by the work of reform bodies like the Brahmo Samaj, Ramakrishna Mission ( established by Swami Vivekananda), the Prarthana Samaj in Bombay (1867), the Arya Samaj in the Punjab (1875), the Theosophical Society in Madras (1882), and the Sarvajanik Sabha of Poona. Most of these movements aimed of course at the eradication of social abuses and unhealthy developments in religious practices. But this renaissance, especially in India where every aspect of life is infused by religious and moral purposes, was bound to lead to efforts at improvement in the political field also. The political revival of the Maratha and Sikh powers was preceded by religious movements, rousing the people to new endeavour. The press and the new literature that grew up in the years previous to 1885 also indicated the disaffection that was steadily growing among the people. Haveri district along with Gadag district was earlier part of undivided Dharwad district. Owing to the demands of the people Haveri district was carved out of old Dharwad district and was formed on 24.08.1997.

  • At Home in the World: Jawaharlal Nehru and Global Anti-Imperialism
    AT HOME IN THE WORLD: JAWAHARLAL NEHRU AND GLOBAL ANTI-IMPERIALISM A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Michele L. Louro January, 2011 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Howard Spodek, Advisory Chair, Department of History, Temple University Dr. Richard Immerman, Department of History, Temple University Dr. Lynn Hollen Lees, Department of History, University of Pennsylvania Dr. Thomas R. Metcalf, Department of History, University of California Berkley © Copyright 2010 by Michele L. Louro All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation situates Indian nationalist politics in a broad, international context of anti-imperialist movements beginning in the late colonial and interwar period. The archival record is rich with sources on the international and transnational connections of the Indian National Congress (INC); however, scholarship on the independence movement almost exclusively concentrates on the micro-histories of ‘locality, province, and nation’ or the ‘subalterns’ of India. Instead, this project contributes a much-needed international perspective to Indian colonial history. As a case study, this dissertation traces the relationship between Jawaharlal Nehru, then a prominent leader of the Indian independence movement and later India’s first prime minister (1947-1964), and the League against Imperialism (LAI), a significant, yet little studied organization founded in Brussels in February 1927. The League offered a significant space for Nehru, and by extension the Indian National Congress, to interact and build partnerships with political leaders in other colonies, mandates and dependencies in Asia, Africa, and Latin America; as well as North American and European social reformers concerned with working class and racial equality.

    KAS -MODERN INDIA TALENT ACADEMY MODERN INDIA | MODULE 2 INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESS FORMATION OF INC The Indian National Congress was formed at a national convention held at Bombay in December 1885. A.O. Hume, a former British civil servant and a political liberal is considered as the founder of INC. He toured across India, met various political leaders and persuaded them to meet at this national conference. He is also known as the father of Indian National Congress. Initially, it was decided to meet at Poona and Poona Sarvajanik Sabha offered to host this event. But because of a plague outbreak, venue was shifted from Pune to Bombay. The first session of INC was held from December 28 to 31, at Gokul Das Tejpal Sanskrit College, Bombay. It was attended by 72 delegates from different parts of the country. Prominent among them were: A.O.Hume (Simla), Dadabhai Naoroji, K.T.Telang, Pherozeshah Mehta, D.E. Wacha, B.M.Malabari, N. G. Chandavarkar (from Bombay), G.G.Agarkar, W.S.

Hume was the first person to address this session. Dadabhai Naoroji suggested the name „Congress‟ for this organization, which he adopted from North American history. They decided to hold congress session in every year at different parts of the country and to choose a president to lead the organization for a year. The president should be from a region other than the one where the session was being held.

  • Appendix a Biographical Notes
    Appendix A Biographical Notes Most of the individuals who appear in the documents and who had some important role to play are included in this section. The common Indian practice of adding an honorific ji' (or jee) to the main or part of the main name (e.g. Subhasji, Lalajee) and also to the surname (e.g. Gandhijee), and of using in some cases only the prefix (Mahatmaji, Maulana, Dr Saheb), often causes a problem of identifi­ cation. To help readers solve this problem all such 'incomplete' names are listed in the index, each with a cross-reference. Thus, for example, 'Lalaji' will appear in the index with a cross-reference - see Rai, Lala Lajpat. Having thus ascertained the full name the reader may turn back to this seetion for further details about the person concerned.
