INDIAN HISTORYHISTORYThe History of India begins with the birth of the Indus Valley Civilization, more precisely known as Harappan Civilization.It flourished around 2,500 BC, in the western part of South Asia, what today is Pakistan and Western India.The Indus Valley was home to the largest of the four ancient urban civilizations of Egypt, Mesopotamia, India and China. Nothing was known about this civilization till 1920sArchaeological Department of India carried out excavations in the Indus valley wherein the ruins of the two old cities, viz. Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa were unearthed.

They had wide roads and a well-developed drainage system. The houses were made of baked bricks and had two or more storeys.The highly civilized Harappans knew the art of growing cereals, and wheat and barley constituted their staple food. They consumed vegetables and fruits and ate mutton, pork and eggs as well.

Evidences also show that they wore cotton as well as woollen garments.

By 1500 BC, the Harappan culture came to an end.

Among various causes ascribed to the decay of Indus Valley Civilization are the invasion by the Aryans, the recurrent floods and other natural causes like earthquake, etc.Aryavartha- northern IndiaDravidic- southern IndiaBharata- Sanskrit name given for whole of the Indian country which means being maintainedAfter the British invasion it was named INDIA it was derived from the word Indus valley NAMEPROVINCES OF INDIABEFORE BRITISH INVASIONChera dynasty Chola dynastyPandya dynastyAFTER BRITISH INVASIONThe four governmental divisions in 1851 consisted of:Bengal Presidencywith its capital atCalcuttaBombay Presidencywith its capital atBombayMadras Presidencywith its capital atMadras

SOME UNKNOWN FACTS ABOUT INDIAN HISTORYThere were 562 princely states in India at the time of independence. 560 of these states joined India and the remaining two (Junagadh and Hyderabad) were annexed by the military.Bal Gangadhar Tilak along with Sir Ratan Jamshed Tata conceived the Bombay Swadeshi Co-Op Stores Co. Ltd. in favor of Swadeshi goods in the early 1900s. The store is popularly known as The Bombay Store now.Records state that, in 1947, if Pakistan hadnt sent in their tribesmen to attack and conquer Jammu and Kashmir, the state would have eventually gone to Pakistan. Lord Mountbatten had said, By sending its irregular troops into the state, Pakistan spoiled the whole thing.We see various adoptions of the Indian national flag today. However, very few are aware of the fact thatkhadior hand-spun cloth is the only material allowed to be used for the flag and flying a flag made of any other material is punishable by law with imprisonment up to three years, besides a fine.

After Indias independence, Portugal amended its constitution and declared Goa as a Portuguese state. Indian troops invaded Goa on December 19, 1961 and annexed it to India.I FEEL SO PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN NOT JUST BECAUSE ITS MY COUNTRY BUT BECAUSE ITS BASES ARE SACRIFICES, STRUGGLE AND PATRIOTISMCULTURE

INDIAN SPACE RESEARCH ORGANISATION

The former Indian President A. P. J. Abdul Kalam said:

Many individuals with myopic vision questioned the relevance of space activities in a newly independent nation, which was finding it difficult to feed its population. Their vision was clear if Indians were to play meaningful role in the community of nations, they must be second to none in the application of advanced technologies to their real-life problems. They had no intention of using it as a means of displaying our might.
