Q. 11. Explain the response of business class in India to the Civil Disobedience Movement. 3
Ans. During the First World War, Indian merchants and industrialists had made huge profits and became powerful. They were keen to expand their business and so reacted against colonial policies that restricted business activities. They wanted protection against import of foreign goods and a rupee-sterling foreign exchange ratio that would discourage imports. To organize business interests, they formed the Indian Industrial and Commercial Congress (1920) and the Federation of the Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industries (FICCI) (1927). Led by industrialists like Purshottamdas Thakurdas and G.D.Birla, the industrialists attacked colonial control over Indian economy and supported the Civil Disobedience Movement when it was first launched. They gave financial assistance and refused to buy or sell imported goods. Most businessmen came to see Swaraj as a time when colonial restrictions on business would no longer exist and trade and industry would flourish without constraints. But, after the failure of the Round Table Conference, business groups were no longer uniformly enthusiastic.
Q. 12. Describe the Peasant Rebellion in Awadh during the Non-Cooperation Movement. 3
Ans. The Peasant Rebellion in Awadh was led by Baba Ramchandra, a ‘Sanyasi’, who was earlier a labourer in Fiji. Here, the movement was against ‘talukdars’ and landlords who demanded high rents from peasants. The peasants were forced to do ‘begar’ and work at farms of landlords with no wages. As tenants, they had no security of tenure and could be evicted without any notice as they had no right over the leased land. The Peasant Movement thus demanded reduction of revenue, abolition of ‘begar’ and the boycott of oppressive landlords. In 1920, Shri Jawaharlal Nehru toured Awadh villages to understand peasant grievances. This led to the formation of the Oudh Kisan Sabha headed by Shri Nehru and Baba Ramchandra. So, when the Non-Cooperation Movement began, the effort of the Congress was to integrate the Awadh peasants into the wider struggle

Q. 13. Analyse any three conditions that made economic recovery difficult for Britain after First World War. 3×1=3
Ans. (i) Post-World War I economic recovery proved difficult. Britain, the world’s leading economy in the pre-war period, faced a prolonged crisis. While Britain was preoccupied with war, industries developed in India and Japan. After the war, Britain could not recapture its earlier position of dominance in the Indian market and to compete internationally with Japan.
(ii) To finance war expenses, Britain had borrowed liberally from USA, which led to huge external debts for USA.
(iii) The war also led to an economic boom, with a large increase in demand, production and employment. After the war ended, unemployment increased and production contracted. There were thus huge job losses and, in 1921, one in every five British workers was out of work.

Q. 14. Explain any three reasons as to why British industrialists preferred hand labour. 3×1=3
Ans. (i) When there is plenty of labour, wages are low. In Victorian Britain, industrialists had no problem of labour shortage or high wage-cost as large numbers of poor peasants and vagrants had moved to the cities. Machines were not introduced as this would rid them of hand labour.
(ii) Demand for labour was seasonal. In industries, where production fluctuated with the season, hand labour was preferred.
(iii) A range of products could be produced only with hand labour. Demand in the market was for goods with intricate designs and specific shapes. In Britain, for example, 500 varieties of hammers were produced and 45 kinds of axes. These required human skill, not mechanical technology. In Victorian Britain, the aristocrats and the bourgeoisie preferred hand-made objects. These objects had a better finish, as they were individually produced and carefully designed. Machine-made goods were for export to the colonies.

Q. 17. “Democracy stands much superior to any other form of government in promoting dignity and freedom of the individual.” Justify the statement by giving three examples. 3×1=3
Ans. Democracy stands much superior to any other form of government in promoting the dignity and freedom of the individual.
(i) The passion for respect and freedom are the bases of democracy. Democracy accepts dignity of women as a necessary ingredient of society. We have historically had male dominated societies. There is sensitivity to women’s issues because of long struggles by them. Democracy recognises the principle of equal treatment to women unlike non-democratic governments.
(ii) The same is true of caste inequalities. Democracy in India has strengthened the claims of the disadvantaged and discriminated castes for equal status and opportunity.
(iii) Also, democracy has to meet the expectations of citizens and people have the right to complain about the functioning of democracy.

Q. 18. Analyse the growth of consumer movement as a ‘social force’ in India, which led to the enactment of COPRA, 1986 by the Indian Government. 3
Ans. The consumer movement as a ‘social force’ originated with the necessity of protecting and promoting the interests of consumers against unethical and unfair trade practices of the producers and sellers.
i. Rampant food shortages, hoarding, black marketing, adulteration of food and edible oil gave birth to the consumer movement in an organised form in the 1960s.
ii. In the early phase, consumer organisations were mainly engaged in writing articles and holding exhibitions. They formed groups to look into malpractices in ration shops and overcrowding in road passenger transport.
iii. Because of all these efforts, the movement succeeded in putting pressure on businesses and the government to change their unfair ways. As a result of all this, a major step was taken by the Indian Government in 1986. It enacted the Consumer Protection Act, 1986, which popularly came to be known as COPRA.

Q. 19. Describe in brief the emergence of Greece as an Independent Nation. 4
Ans. The Greek War of Independence was an event that mobilised nationalist feelings among the educated elite across Europe. Greece was a part of the Ottoman empire since the 15th century. Revolutionary nationalism in Europe had started a struggle for independence amongst the Greeks from 1821. Nationalists in Greece were supported by other Greeks living in exile and also from many West Europeans who had sympathies for ancient Greek culture.
Poets and artists praised Greece as the cradle of European civilization and mobilised public opinion to support its struggle against a Muslim empire. The Treaty of Constantinople of 1832, finally recognised Greece as an independent nation.

Describe the problems faced by the French after the creation of a modern city in Hanoi.
Ans. When the French set about to create a modern Vietnam, they decided to rebuild Hanoi. Latest architecture and engineering skills were used to build a new and ‘modern’ city.
In 1903, the modern part of Hanoi was struck by bubonic plague, which took a very interesting turn.
The French part of Hanoi was built as a beautiful and clean city with wide roads and a well laid out sewer system, while the ‘native quarter’ was not provided with any modern facilities. The refuse from the old city drained straight out into the river or, during heavy rains or floods, overflowed into the streets. So, what was installed to create a hygienic environment in the French city became the cause of the plague.
The large sewers of the modern part of the city, a symbol of modernity, became a breeding ground for rats. The sewers also served as a great transport system, allowing the rats to move around the city without any problem. Rats began to enter the well-cared-for homes of the French through the sewage pipes. Thus, the rat menace brought the end of French power.

Q. 23. Explain the prudential and moral reasons given in favour of power sharing. 2+2=4
Ans. Two reasons are given in favour of power sharing: The first set of reasons can be called ‘prudential’ which stresses that power sharing will bring out better outcomes. It helps to reduce the possibility of conflict between social groups. Since conflicts lead to violence and political instability, political order can be stabilised by power sharing.
The Second set of reasons can be called ‘moral’, which emphasizes the very act of power sharing as valuable. Under this, we believe that the very spirit of democracy is power sharing. People have a right to be consulted on how to be governed and they have the right to participate in the system.

Q. 24. Explain four points how communalism can take various forms in politics. 4×1=4
Ans.
Q. 25. “Dynastic succession is posing a challenge to political parties causing problems in their functioning.” Give four arguments in support of this statement. 4×1=4
Ans. Most political parties do not practise open and transparent procedures for their functioning. So there are very few ways for an ordinary worker to rise to the top in a party. Those who happen to be the leaders are in a position of unfair advantage as they favour people close to them or even their family members.
In many parties, the top positions are always controlled by members of a particular family, which is unfair to other members of the party, and bad for democracy. This is so because people who do not have adequate experience or popular support come to occupy positions of power. More than loyalty to party principles and policies, personal loyalty to the leader becomes more important.
This tendency is seen all over the world, even in older democracies.
Q. 26. Define the term ‘organized sector’. Explain three demerits of unorganized sector. 1+3=4
Ans. Organized sector covers those enterprises or places of work in which terms of employment are regular and people have assured work. They are registered with the government and have to follow various rules and regulations.
Demerits of the unorganized sector:
(i) In this sector, employment is not secure and jobs are irregular. Employees can be asked to leave without any reason.
(ii) Government rules are not followed as this sector is outside the control of the government. Jobs are often low paid and there is no provision for overtime, paid leave, leave due to sickness, etc.
(iii) This sector is at a disadvantage as it is fragmented into small parts and is scattered. Thus, the workers cannot easily unite and have organisations or unions to fight for their rights.

Q. 27. Study the graph carefully and answer the questions that follow:
(27.1) Mention the percentage of loans taken by well-off households and households with few assets from formal sector.
(27.2) State the reason for high percentage of formal sector loans to rich households and high percentage of informal sector loans to poor households. 2+2=4
(27.2) State the reason for high percentage of formal sector loans to rich households and high percentage of informal sector loans to poor households. 2+2=4
Ans. (27.1) Percentage of formal sector loans taken by
well-off households = 72%.
Percentage of formal sector loans taken by
households with few assets = 47%.
well-off households = 72%.
Percentage of formal sector loans taken by
households with few assets = 47%.
(27.2) There is a high percentage of formal sector loans taken by rich households because rich households are able to provide collateral (land, building, vehicle, livestock, land documents, bank deposits etc.) as security which is a necessary requirement of the formal sector at the time of extending loans.
Banks and other formal sources of credit are usually unwilling to give loans to the poor households as they fail to provide collateral. Thus the poor households turn to money-lenders, relatives, friends and other informal sources to meet their loan requirements. Thus the percentage of informal sector loans to poor households is high.
