Why & How India bounded in the shackles of Slavery ? Read to know India's quest for Freedom !

Do you know what caused the decline of Mughal Empire in India ? How East India Company tighten its grip on the administration of India ? How Indians got disintegrated due to various British Policies and How a man who returned from South Africa got Britishers out of India without using any arms or violence?

Looks Interesting , Let’s Start

It all started back in  1600 AD when Britishers came to India as traders in the form of East India Company with exclusive right to trade in India. Back then no one really knew what intention they really had. In 1765 , EIC obtained Diwani of Bengal , Orissa and Bihar.

Simultaneously the weakened  Mughal empire worked as a fuel for the expansion of East India Company like fire. The great Mughal Empire declined during first half of eighteenth century. The Mughal emperors lost their power and their empire shrank to around the region of Delhi.In 1803 , Delhi itself was occupied by British Army and Mughals‘s status reduced to the status of pensioners.

Britishers brought various acts in order to administrate India and the Charter Act of 1833 laid foundation for the complete political and legal control of colonial rule over India. With this centralisation of Colonial India started. Charter act of 1853 was the last charter act as till then Britishers had full control over India but an incident happened which took away the sleep of British government. That incident was the ‘Sepoy Mutiny’ (The First War of Independence)in 1857. This lead to the Government of India Act of 1858. Later Indian Councils Act of 1861,1892 and 1909 enacted for the more indirect involvement of Indians in British government. On January 9th, 1915 Mahatma Gandhi arrived in India. Later Gandhi Ji took leadership of the Congress in 1920 and began escalating demands until on 26 January, 1930, the Indian National Congress declared the independence of India. The British did not recognise the declaration but negotiations ensued, with the Congress taking a role in provincial government in the late 1930s.


Due to the continued efforts of Mahatma Gandhi and other freedom fighters , On February 20 ,1947 , the British Prime Minister Clement Atlee declared that the British rule in India would end by June 30th 1948 and powers would be transferred to responsible Indian hands. Later the partition took place as demanded by the Muslim League. The Mountbatten plan was put forth and accepted by Congress and Muslim League. With immediate effect Indian Independence act 1947 was enacted.

So 15th August is of immense importance as it marks the day of the triumph of Truth over Injustice and freedom of India from the shackles of slavery.



I hope that this introduction to the glorious history of India made you poud of the struggles of your ancestors for the formation of a Secular Democratic Republic of “India”.


Thank you J

Jai Hind !

A Case Study on Floods in India !

-
What is a Flood ? A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land that is usually dry. In the sense of "flowing water", the word may also be applied to the inflow of the tide. Floods are an area of study of the discipline hydrology and are of significant concern in agriculture, civil engineering and public health. Flooding may occur as an overflow of water from water bodies, such as a river, lake, or ocean, in which the water overtops or breaks levees, resulting in some of that water escaping it s usual boundaries, or it may occur due to an accumulation of rainwater on saturated ground in an areal flood. While the size of a lake or other body of water will vary with seasonal changes in precipitation and snow melt, these changes in size are unlikely to be considered significant unless they flood property or drown domestic animals.  Floods can also occur in rivers when the flow rate exceeds the capacity of the river channel, particularly at bends or meanders in the waterway...
