EDITORIAL Dear Members, Fellow Professionals and Friends Seasons Greetings To One And All! Greetings For A Happy Ayudha Pooja!! Best Wishes For A Bright And Happy Deepavali!!! October is a month of important festivals of worship, work and joy. This is also a month that begins reminding us of the ‘Father of the Nation’ who worked his way through ‘Ahimsa’ for the Freedom of the Nation and lived a life of Truth, Morality and Courage to set an example for all of us to follow. We all recognize the fall in moral standards, particularly in public life and let us all resolve to work towards correcting the same with all our involvement. India has the proud tradition of “Work is Worship” and we celebrate ‘Ayudha Pooja’ as a mark of respect for the Profession, Machinery and the Tools. A recent comment by one of the European Engineering giants about the problems of investing in India, that the main problem is lack of availability of sufficient skilled work force in India as only a very small percentage of youth, after 10th standard go for skill training in India. Though this may sound a little disturbing, steps are being initiated by the Government through its New Education Policy for providing impetus for skill training after schooling. Deepavali, the Festival of Lights, is also celebrated during this month, which reminds us of the Great Invention of Electric Lights about 150 years ago, which brought illumination to the whole world. Looking at the way we spend most part of the ‘Nights’ these days in Entertainment and Games, we can’t even imagine a world without Lights now.

HISTORY of INDIAN PAINTING Historyofindianflag
VIDYA BHAWAN BALIKA VIDYAPITH Subject : Fine Art (painting) class : 12th science/com Date : 17/06/20 RADHAKISHOR MONDAL HISTORY OF INDIAN PAINTING History of Indian Flag A number of flags with varying designs were used in the period preceding the Indian Independence Movement by the rulers of different princely states; the idea of a single Indian flag was first raised by the British rulers of India after the rebellion of 1857, which resulted in the establishment of direct imperial rule. The first flag, whose design was based on western heraldic standards, were similar to the flags of other British colonies, including Canada and South Africa; its red field included the Union Jack in the upper-left quadrant and a Star of India capped by the royal crown in the middle of the right half. To address the question of how the star conveyed "Indianness", Queen Victoria created the Knight Commander of the Order of the Star of India to honour services to the empire by her Indian subjects. Subsequently, all the Indian princely states received flags with symbols based on the heraldic criteria of Europe including the right to fly defaced British red ensigns. A proposed flag for India from 1904, as seen in an Anglo- Indian weekly. The dark blue band represented Hindus and Buddhists, the green band represented Muslims, and the light blue band represented Christians. The vertical purple band on the left side contained the stars from the Orion constellation, which represented the provinces and states. The surrounding red border symbolised India being kept united and whole by British rule.
