Amit Sharma answered |
The noun manuscript evolved from the Latin manu scriptus, meaning “written by hand.” Manu is “hand” and scriptus is “to write." It refers to old documents actually written by hand before books were made, but it can also refer to a writer's unpublished work whether it's handwritten or typed.
Manuscripts were usually written on palm leaf, or on the specially prepared bark of a tree known as the birch, which grows in the Himalayas, while inscriptions were engraved either on a stone surface or on bricks or metals.

The most important improvement in Alauddin's economic reforms was "market control policy" which was mentioned by Barni in his book 'Tarikh-i-Firuz Shahi'.
Maximum Mongol invasions took place during the reign of Alauddin Khilji, due to which Alauddin had to keep a large army. Allauddin started paying cash salaries to the soldiers instead of Iqta.

2. The Northern black polished ware was a hard wheel, metallic looking ware with a shiny black surface. It was applied on pots to give them a mirror-like shine.
- This statement is incorrect. The Northern Black Polished Ware (NBPW) was a type of pottery produced in ancient India during the Iron Age (c. 700-200 BCE). It is characterized by its black color and polished surface achieved through a unique firing process, not by any application. It was not metallic looking, nor was it applied to pots to give them a shine.

The first place where people learnt to grow barley and wheat and rear sheep and goats for the first time is considered to be Mehrgarh.
Mehrgarh is an archaeological site located in the Balochistan province in Pakistan. It is regarded as one of the most important Neolithic sites in South Asia and has provided valuable insights into the early development of human civilization.
Some of the key features of Mehrgarh that make it an important site for the study of early human civilization include:
1. Agriculture: Mehrgarh is believed to be one of the earliest sites where people started to cultivate crops such as barley and wheat. The discovery of grain storage pits and grinding stones indicates that agriculture was an important part of life at Mehrgarh.
2. Domestication of animals: In addition to agriculture, Mehrgarh is also believed to be one of the earliest sites where people started to domesticate animals such as sheep and goats. The discovery of animal bones and figurines suggests that these animals were an important part of life at Mehrgarh.
3. Social organization: The discovery of large, multi-room structures at Mehrgarh suggests that people were living in complex, organized societies. The presence of figurines and other artifacts also suggests that art and religion were important aspects of life at Mehrgarh.
In conclusion, Mehrgarh is considered to be the first place where people learnt to grow barley and wheat and rear sheep and goats for the first time. Its importance in the study of early human civilization cannot be overstated, and it continues to be a valuable source of information for archaeologists and historians.

Correct Answer:- C
After the Non-Cooperation Movement, British government itself provided an opportunity to the Indians for the revival of political agitation in the country. The British government announced the appointment of a statutory commission on November 8, 1927 and the constitution of the commission revived the political agitation in India.
The commission consisted of seven members of the British Parliament with John Simon as its Chairman. The most objectionable feature of the commission from the Indian point of view was its all British composition. Not a single Indian was considered fit to be included in the commission. The commission was to look into the functioning of the reforms introduced in India by the Act of 1919 and to enquire into the working of the growth of education in India.

Late Ancient Era and Puranic Stories
Introduction:
The late ancient era marks the period between the 4th and 8th centuries AD in Indian history. During this period, many significant changes took place in Indian society and culture.
Puranic stories and local deities:
One of the most notable features of this era was the increasing popularity of Puranic stories and local deities. Puranas are ancient Hindu texts that contain stories about the gods and goddesses, as well as various aspects of Hindu mythology. These stories became very popular during this period, and many new temples were built to house the images of the gods and goddesses.
Only Upper Caste devotees can receive the grace of God:
However, it is not true that only Upper Caste devotees can receive the grace of God, as mentioned in statement 2. This is a misconception that has been propagated by some people based on a misinterpretation of certain texts. In fact, the idea of God's grace being available only to a certain section of society is contrary to the basic tenets of Hinduism, which emphasize the importance of individual effort and devotion.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, while Puranic stories and local deities did become popular during the late ancient era, it is incorrect to say that only Upper Caste devotees can receive the grace of God. It is essential to understand the nuances of Indian history and culture to avoid such misconceptions.

Arya Das answered |
Sequence of events:
1. Death of Genghis Khan: Genghis Khan, the founder and the first Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, died in 1227. His death marked a significant turning point in the history of the Mongol Empire and had implications for the subsequent events.
2. Capture of Baghdad and end of the Abbasid Caliphate: After the death of Genghis Khan, his successors continued the expansion of the Mongol Empire. In 1258, Hulagu Khan, a grandson of Genghis Khan, led the Mongols in capturing Baghdad, the capital of the Abbasid Caliphate. This event resulted in the end of the Abbasid Caliphate, a major Islamic empire that had existed for centuries.
3. End of Yuan dynasty in China: The Yuan dynasty was established in China by Kublai Khan, a grandson of Genghis Khan. The dynasty ruled over China from 1271 to 1368. However, internal conflicts, economic difficulties, and popular uprisings led to the decline of the Yuan dynasty. In 1368, the Chinese rebel leader Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew the Mongols and established the Ming dynasty, bringing an end to the Yuan dynasty.

The term Hindustan was used by the chronicler Minhaj-i-Siraj to denote the areas of Punjab, Haryana and the lands between the Ganga and Yamuna. The terms were used in political sense to describe the lands which were part of the Delhi Sultanate, but never included South India.
The Rajputs were among the main communities whose importance grew in the medieval period. The term was used not just for rulers and chieftains, but also included the soldiers and commanders of armies.

Pranjal Ghosh answered |
The Indigo revolt (or Nil bidroho) was a peasant movement and subsequent uprising of indigo farmers against the indigo planters that arose in Chowgacha village of Nadia in Bengal in 1859.
As Indigo planting became more commercially profitable due to the demand for blue dye in Europe, the planters persuaded the peasants to plant indigo instead of food. They were provided with loans, at a very high interest resulting in a whole life of debt, whereas the price paid for indigo was only 2.5% of the market price resulting in no profit for farmers.
Under this severe oppression, farmers resorted to revolt. Due to the revolt, the planters gradually began to shut shop with the cultivation of indigo being wiped out from the districts of Bengal by 1860.
Nil Darpan is a Bengali play written by Dinabandhu Mitra in 1858–1859. The play was published in Dhaka in 1860, under a pseudonym of the author. The play was essential to Nil Vidroha, better known as the Indigo Revolt of February–March 1859 in Bengal, when farmers refused to sow indigo in their fields to protest against exploitative farming under the British Raj.
It was Michael Madhusudan Dutt who translated the play into English immediately after it was published.

Khilji dynasty was the shortest ruling dynasty of the delhi sultanate.The founder of Khilji dynasty was Jalal-ud-din Khilji.He was very generous king.He adopted the policy of tolerence towards all religion. But he could rule for a very short period of 4 years as he was treacherously murdered by his nephew Alauddin Khilji. Alauddin Khalji was very harsh in his policies.He was intolerent towards other religion other than islam.During his reign, he raided and looted many temples and killed a large number of masses.His expeditions reached far till south India. After his death, his immediate successors were not so strong to keep the foundations of his kingdom intact, therefore the Khilji dynasty collapsed and it was taken over by Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq who founded the Tughlaq dyanasty.

Rohit Jain answered |
The Bhoodan Movement or Land Gift Movement was a voluntary land reform movement in India. It was initiated by Acharya Vinoba Bhave in 1951 at Pochampally village, which is now in Telangana, and known as Bhoodan Pochampally. It is also called the land gift movement.
The Bhoodan Movement attempted to persuade wealthy landowners to voluntarily give a percentage of their land to landless people. Philosophically, Bhave was influenced by Mahatma Gandhi's Sarvodaya movement. This was one more example of women power and unity. Women volunteers carried the message of Bhoodan to all parts of India. Women played a significant role in the Telangana Peasants Armed Struggle (TPAS) which challenged the Nizams and the feudal system. As their region became free from bonded labour, women also found freedom from this torment.

Anita Desai answered |
- In Bombay, the Paramhans Mandali was founded in 1840 to work for the abolition of caste. Many of these reformers and members of reform associations were people of upper castes. Often, in secret meetings, these reformers would violate caste taboos on food and touch, to get rid of the hold of caste prejudice in their lives.
- Periyar founded the Self Respect Movement. He argued that untouchables were the true upholders of an original Tamil and Dravidian culture which had been subjugated by Brahmans.
- Orthodox Hindu society also reacted by founding Sanatan Dharma Sabhas and the Bharat Dharma Mahamandal in the north, and associations like the Brahman Sabha in Bengal.
- The object of these associations was to uphold caste distinctions as a cornerstone of Hinduism, and show how this was sanctified by scriptures. The Prarthana Samaj was established in 1867 at Bombay, the Prarthana Samaj sought to remove caste restrictions, abolish child marriage, encourage the education of women, and end the ban on widow remarriage. Its religious meetings drew upon Hindu, Buddhist and Christian texts.

On the morning of October 5, 1789, a large group of women in a Paris marketplace began to revolt. They wanted to buy bread for their families. They began to march through Paris demanding bread at a fair price. As they marched, more people joined the group and soon there were thousands of marchers.

- The inscriptions of the Pallavas mention many local assemblies. These included the sabha, which was an assembly of brahmin landowners. This assembly functioned through subcommittees, which looked after irrigation, agricultural operations, making roads, local temples, etc.
- The ur was a village assembly found in areas where the landowners were not brahmins. And Nagaram was an organisation of merchants. These assemblies were likely controlled by rich and powerful landowners and merchants.

The Arthashashtra reveals the importance of the country’s north west region which was important for blankets and South India which was famous for gold and precious stones. It is possible that these resources were collected as a tribute. Ashok’s dhamma did not involve worship of god or performance of sacrifice. He felt that just as a father tries to teach his children, he had a duty to instruct his subjects. He was inspired by the teachings of the Buddha.
