It was introduced in 11 provinces viz. Madras, Bombay, Bengal, the United Provinces, Punjab, Bihar, Central Provinces, Assam, The North Western Frontier province, Orissa and Sind.<\/p>\n<p>The provinces were administered by the ministers. The difference between the reserved and transferred subjects was dropped. All subjects were placed under the charge of Ministers who were made responsible to and removable by the legislative Assembly.<\/p>\n<p>Thus the executive was responsible to legislature. The Legislature relations between the Central government and the Provinces were regulated according to three lists of subjects provided under the Act.<\/p>\n<p>1. However, Dominion status which was promised by the Simon Commission in 1929, was not conferred by this Act.<\/p>\n<p>2. The intention to establish \u201cFederation of India\u201d did not materialize because of the opposition for merger from the rulers of the Princely States.<\/p>\n<p>3. The degree of Provincial Autonomy introduced at the provisional level was limited as Central government retained important powers and control. The Governor was given pivotal position, with discretionary powers on important matters. He was not bound by the advice of ministers. Thus the claim of conferring provincial autonomy was very, limited.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kseebsolutions.guru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/KSEEB-Solutions-300x28.png\" alt=\"KSEEB Solutions\" width=\"172\" height=\"16\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 24.<br \/>\nWrite the importance of elections.<br \/>\nAnswer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Election is the foundation for a democratic government.<\/li>\n<li>It is the key component to provide justice and freedom to all without any discrimination.<\/li>\n<li>It is designed to create a popular government.<\/li>\n<li>It gives a citizen an opportunity to have one\u2019s voice heard and a choice by which one should be governed.

Defector gets elected on one party\u2019s ticket and tries to enjoy power in another party.<\/p>\n<p>The word defection is also called as \u2018Floor Crossing in UK and \u2018Carpet Crossing\u2019 in Nigeria. The term \u2018Defection\u2019 is used in India. Defection is commonly known as \u2018House funding\u2019. Defectors are called as \u2018Fence-sitters\u2019 or Turn Coats.<\/p>\n<p>Sri Rajiv Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India decided to remove the evils of defection. Hence, Anti defection Act came into force on 1<sup>st<\/sup> April through the 52<sup>nd<\/sup> Constitution Amendment. The main intention of the law was to combat \u201cThe evils of political defections\u201d. The provisions are:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>A member of Parliament or state legislature belonging to any political party shall be disqualified if he voluntarily quits his party.<\/li>\n<li>He will be disqualified from his membership if he votes against his party whip in the session.<\/li>\n<li>A member of Parliament or state Legislature belonging to any political party shall be disqualified from his membership, if he votes in the session without prior permission of his party.<\/li>\n<li>A nominated member shall be disqualified from his membership in the upper house, if he joins any political party after six months from the date on which he assumes his position.<\/li>\n<li>If l\/3<sup>rd<\/sup> strength of any political party merges with another political party, it shall be considered as defection.<\/li>\n<li>A person disqualified under this Act shall not be provided any office of profit.<\/li>\n<li>The Anti-defection law determines the size of the council of Ministers. The size of the council of Ministers of Union shall exceed 15% of the total members of the Lok Sabha and similar to that of state legislative Assembly.<\/li>\n<li>Speaker can initiate action against the members under Anti-defection law.<\/li>\n<li>The Chairpersons of Legislative are permitted to frame the rules to implement this law.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Question 26.<br \/>\nDiscuss the features of Civil Service.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe term civil service refers to the permanent executive which means Head of State and cabinet and includes large number of administrative officials. Features of civil service is as follows:<\/p>\n<p>Features of Civil Services:<br \/>\n1. Professional body:<br \/>\nAs Herman Finer puts it, Civil service is a professional body of officials who are, permanent, paid and skilled. It is a whole time job and career service.<\/p>\n<p>2. Hierarchy:<br \/>\nAs per the staler system, each civil servant has to obey his immediate superior, where higher ranking administrative officers with discretionary powers supervise their subordinates. The authority runs from above, and helps to makeadminis tration stable.<\/p>\n<p>3. Political Neutrality:<br \/>\nCivil Servants always refrain from political activities. They perform their duties without being aligned to any one political regime.<\/p>\n<p>4. Anonymity:<br \/>\nCivil servants work behind the screen and remain anonymous even though they work for the Government. Recognition for good work or censure for any omission goes only to the concerned minister and not to the civil servants.<\/p>\n<p>5. Impartiality:<br \/>\nThe Civil Servants have to apply the laws of the state while performing the duties without showing any favour, bias or preference to any groups or sections of the society.<\/p>\n<p>6. Service motto:<br \/>\nThey have to work for the welfare of society. They must be humble and service-minded towards the public and not authoritative.<\/p>\n<p>7. Permanent:<br \/>\nCivil Servants are called permanent executives. They discharge duties until they attain the age of superannuation. Both at the central and in Karnataka State Services, the age of retirement is sixty years. Even though disciplinary action is taken as per rules, there is security of service.<\/p>\n<p>8. Jurisdiction of Law:<br \/>\nEvery Civil Servant has to function within the prescribed jurisdiction of law. If he crosses the limit, he is met with disciplinary action.<\/p>\n<p>9. Special Training:<br \/>\nOnce the candidates are selected for top civil services, they are deputed to in-service training to acquire special skills in administration, like the Lai Bahadur Shastry Academy of Administration located in Missouri for the training of the newly appointed IAS officers. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Police Academy located in Hyderabad trains the newly appointed IPS officers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kseebsolutions.guru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/KSEEB-Solutions-300x28.png\" alt=\"KSEEB Solutions\" width=\"172\" height=\"16\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 27.<br \/>\nWrite a note on Domestic violence.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nWomen shoulder the entire household responsibilities like rearing and caring of children, domestic work and the related tasks. They become the victims of domestic violence because of irresponsible, illiterate and drunkard husbands who lack discretion. This may take the form of physical, mental, sexual harassment and finally, it may take the women\u2019s life as toll.<\/p>\n<p>Question 28.<br \/>\nWhat are the causes for Human Rights Movement?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nHuman Rights are those rights which are inherent to human beings and entitled to enjoy without distinction of race colour, religion, language, gender, birthplace, social, economic, political and another status.<\/p>\n<p>The main causes for Human Rights Movements are:<br \/>\n1. To protect civil liberty:<br \/>\nAll men are born equal and they have the liberty to shape their lives. Constitution of India guaranteed these rights in the part in, to all citizens. But in actual practice, Dalits, women and children are being suppressed and exploited. To avoid such atrocities, human rights activists are struggling hard to create awareness.<\/p>\n<p>2. To remove slavery:<br \/>\nSlavery is constitutionally banned but is active in many parts of the country. Instance like child labour, bonded labour etc., are seen frequently. Hence agitations become inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>3. To protect family life:<br \/>\nEvery citizen has the right to family life. Due to modernisation youth are heading towards intercaste and inter honour religious marriages. Elders of families to maintain family and values go even to the extent of Maiyada hatye. Dowry harassment many times ends up in either suicide or murder.<\/p>\n<p>4. To protect the rights of Dalits:<br \/>\nDalits are subject to injustice, atrocities, social ostracism, made-snana etc., Dalits are forced to carry night soil, by upper castes. This is a clear violation of, human rights.<\/p>\n<p>5. Refusal to file cases:<br \/>\nThough the aggrieved dalits approach the authorities to file the cases against upper caste people, it does not get filed due to the interference of some politically dominant castes. Even when physically abused, medical aid and police protection are denied.<\/p>\n<p>Question 29.<br \/>\nDescribe the causes for gender-based inequality.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nDiscriminations made on the basis of gender, denying equal opportunities to the fairer sex are called gender based inequalities. It is the result of gender bias favouring male throughout the ages. The prevalence of gender based inequality in family, economic, cultural, educational and political fields are seen.<\/p>\n<p>Causes:<br \/>\n1. Manu Smriti:<br \/>\nEarlier the Hindu society followed \u2018Manu Smriti\u2019 which asserted that women should always be under the guardianship of men at different stages of her life. He wanted her to be within the four walls, restricting her from the happenings of the society.<\/p>\n<p>2. Male domination:<br \/>\nThe society is based on physical strength of man where he dominates the female. He does not want that female should take over his responsibility and authority at home as well as in society.<\/p>\n<p>3. Denial of education:<br \/>\nMale domination is reflected in the field of education too. Denying education for girls for many centuries has made them incapable in many fields. Men occupied major jobs and secured well and dominating positions in the entire society.<\/p>\n<p>4. Dowry system:<br \/>\nThe practice of dowry system contributes for inequality of gender. Boys are treated as assets and girls as burden. The attitude also intensifies the discrimination between men and women.<\/p>\n<p>5. Inadequate representation:<br \/>\nWomen constitute 50% of the total population. They ate inadequately represented in the field of politics and economics. Even though women are as capable as men, they are not allowed in these fields. Women have little or no opportunities in participating in public life.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kseebsolutions.guru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/KSEEB-Solutions-300x28.png\" alt=\"KSEEB Solutions\" width=\"172\" height=\"16\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 30.<br \/>\nExplain five remedies of communalism.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nPromotion of secularism and National Integration as remedies for communalism are a must.<br \/>\n1. Secularism:<br \/>\nThe constitution makers adopted secularism in order to create sense of security and equality among different religious groups. The state also follows a policy of neutrality in religious matters. Article 26 provides that every religious denomination or any section has the right to establish religious institutions and manage their affairs.<\/p>\n<p>In December 2013 the Central Cabinet approved prevention of Communal Violence (Access to Justice and Reparations) Bill to punish U the offenders who instigate and indulge in communal riots. It is yet to be passed by Parliament.<\/p>\n<p>2. National Integration:<br \/>\nIt is the process of uniting the people emotionally and politically. India is a land of diversity. It makes only a limited sense to call it a nation because it has various religions, languages, caste and culture etc. So for the success of Indian democracy, promotion of national integration is necessary.<\/p>\n<p>To preserve and sustain national integration, many provisions have been adopted in the constitution. Like National integration Council, Zonal Councils, National Security Council and Armed forces play a great role in the protection of National integration.<\/p>\n<p>3. Neighbourhood Peace Committees:<br \/>\nThe aftermath of Babri Masjid demolition and subsequent communal riots and social tensions in different places and ineffective Governmental measures has made it vital to establish Neighbourhood Peace Committees with eminent or prominent people as its members. These members must be nominated from each community in riot prone or communally sensitive areas.<\/p>\n<p>The main objectives are arresting and containing social tensions which may flare up communal riots in the neighbourhood areas taking precautionary measures to prevent the eruption of communal clashes. In the aftermath of conflict, restoring normalcy and pacifying affected people. Establishing harmonious relationship between the communities and extending all possible help to affected people.<\/p>\n<p>Question 31.<br \/>\nExplain the Democratic Movement in Nepal.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\n21<sup>st<\/sup> century is known as the era of democratic movements. These movements in Afro-Asian nations started to overthrow despotic, autocratic and other authoritarian governments. Nepal is a small landlocked kingdom in Southern Asia, lying between India to the south and Tibet to the North. Monarchy was prevalent in Nepal since the 18<sup>th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n<p>During the rule of Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev, democratic Maoist movements started mainly because of the influence of India and China. Nepal\u2019s democratic experiment suffered a serious setback in December 1960, when the first elected government led by National Congress leader Koirala was dissolved and the whole party activities were banned in Nepal in later parts of the decade which continued till 1979.<\/p>\n<p>In 1980, limited democracy resulted in the creation of a multiparty parliamentary monarchy. The political war was launched by the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) in 1996, with the overthrow of the Nepalese monarchy and establishing a people\u2019s Republic. Maoist insurgency began in 1996 and ended with the Communist victory in 2001. The comprehensive Peace Accord was signed on 21<sup>st<\/sup> November 2006.<\/p>\n<p>The crown prince killed king Birendra and the royal family members, bringing the unpopular Gyanendra to the throne. Nepal witnessed a popular movement in 2006. The movement was aimed at restoring democracy. At the same time, the king reinstated the old Nepal house of Representatives, with an assurance of permanent peace and the multiparty democracy.<\/p>\n<p>The king called upon the seven party alliance (SPA) to bear the responsibility of taking the nation on the path of national unity and prosperity. The popular Government assumed office on 18&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;\/sup&gt; May 2006, and withdrew all the privileges given to the king unanimously.<\/p>\n<p>The bill included the following:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Imposing tax on the royal family and its assets.<\/li>\n<li>Ending the Raj Parishad, a Royal Advisory Council.<\/li>\n<li>Eliminating Royal references from army and Government titles.<\/li>\n<li>Declaring Nepal a secular country and not a Hindu kingdom.<\/li>\n<li>Scrapping the national anthem until a new one is composed.<\/li>\n<li>Eliminating the king\u2019s position as the supreme commander of the army.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This is popularly known as the \u201cNepalese Magna Carta\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kseebsolutions.guru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/KSEEB-Solutions-300x28.png\" alt=\"KSEEB Solutions\" width=\"172\" height=\"16\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 32.<br \/>\nExplain India\u2019s contribution on UNPKF.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIndia is committed to assist the UN by providing military troops for the maintenances of interna\u00actional peace and security to the UNPKF. India has deputed more than one lakh troops to participate in plenty of Peacekeeping Missions since 1950. eg. Korea (1950-54), Middle East (1956-67), Congo (1960-64).<\/p>\n<p>Somalia (1993-94), Afghanistan (1993), Haiti (1993), Angola (1989-1999), Ethiopia-Eritrea (2006-08), Lebanon (1998), Ivory Coast (UNOCI) (2004), Liberia (2007), South Sudan (2013-14). The high standards of performance maintained consistantly by the Indian troops and policeman deployed on UN Missions under challenging circumstances have won them high regard worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>Question 33.<br \/>\nWhat are the causes of dispute between India and Srilanka?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nFrom the mid-1950s to early 1980s, there was hardly any dispute between the two countries on the matters of security and sovereignty. There had been negotiated settlement of bilateral issues eg. the question of jurisdiction over Kachathivu Island in the middle of the Palk Straits. One of the main disputes between India and SriLanka has &#8216; been regarding the political status of Tamil people of Indian origin taken to SriLanka by the British as plantation labourers. There are four groups of Sri Lankan Tamil population,<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>ancient Tamils in the Jaffna peninsula,<\/li>\n<li>professional elite Tamil in urban areas<\/li>\n<li>non-Hindu Tamils and<\/li>\n<li>Tamil immigrant labour.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The long standing problem of accepting the Tamil speaking population of Sri Lanka as its citizens and giving them regional autonomy could not be solved. The majority of Sinhalese demanded Tamils should y&#8217; return to India, they deny the citizenship to Tamils by enacting the Ceylon Citizenship Act of 1948. This was disentailed them franchise and other rights.<\/p>\n<p>In 1956, Indian Prime Minister Lai Bahadur Shastri and Sri Lankan Prime Minister Mrs Sirimao Bandara Naike signed an agreement about to Tamil population citizenship, but in vain. In 1981 agreement between Indira Gandhi and Sirimao Bandara Naike was not implemented due to Tamil\u2019s refusal to return to India.<\/p>\n<p>34. Explain the importance of India\u2019s Foreign Policy.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe foreign policy of a nation represents its external sovereignty and freedom. India adopted its own foreign policy after the emancipation from British colonialism and emerged as a sovereignty nation in the world. India\u2019s foreign policy is born of a country\u2019s principles, interests and objectives.<\/p>\n<p>It is the result of interplay of complex forces like History, Geography, Domestic environment, Ideology and \u2018 the influence of National Leaders. It emphasizes the glory of Indian freedom struggle, importance of India\u2019s geographical location for its economic development and patriotism. An important fact of India\u2019s foreign policy is the concern for Gandhian ideas of peace and non violence.<\/p>\n<p>India achieved its independence by using it these weapons and succeeded in inspiring the world. India\u2019s foreign policy comprises of economic developments and political stability to ensure the unity and integrity of the country. National security was conceived to present aggression or threat of aggression to protect the independence, territorial integrity, self reliance and promote economic independence.<\/p>\n<p>India believed in fostering friendly relations with her neighbours. She promotes goodwill, friendship and co-operation in the South Asian region for mutual benefit. India opposes big power intervention or interference in the internal affairs of South Asian region. India calls for making Indian ocean a peaceful zone to avoid big power naval confrontation. India supports liberation on movements, democratic struggles for national independence and right of self-determination.<\/p>\n<p>She is opposed to imperialism, colonialism, racism, authoritarianism and militarism in the world. India supports the Human Rights as a basic condition for democratic world and for an egalitarian world. India believes in promotion of the &#8216; principle of Panchasheel and strengthening of Non Align Movement (NAM) and UN for easing global tension. This is to build a world free from fear, hate, scarcity and inequality.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">IV. Answer any 2 of the following in 30 to 40 sentences: 2&#215;10 = 20<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Question 35.<br \/>\nExplain the nature of party system in India.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nNature :<br \/>\nThe nature of Indian party system can. be traced back to the Indian National Movement. Indian National Congress (INC) was founded by A.O. Hume in 1885. It was a forum to unite the people of India to fight against the British Imperialism. Due to ideological differences, Muslim League was founded in 1906.<\/p>\n<p>Other parties like Hindu Maha Sabha, Communist Party of India, Forward Block and Praja Socialist Party etc., emerged in the successive years. Later, in the post independence period, Jan Sangh, Janatha Party, Bharatiya Janatha Party, Janata Dal, Nationalist Congress Party, according to the needs of the time and they started to work to get power etc were floated.<\/p>\n<p>1. Extra Constitutional growth :<br \/>\nThere is no reference in the Constitution of India about M how many political parties are to exist in the country. According to Article 19 of the Constitution, all citizens can have the freedom to form associations or unions. Political parties are established on the basis of this liberty. Hence, political parties have no constitutional base.<\/p>\n<p>2. Prevalence of Multi party system :<br \/>\nIndia is a divergent country with many religions, tribes, languages, culture and traditions. This heterogeneity leads to the emergence of many political parties to protect their interests in the mainstream of the country.<\/p>\n<p>3. Spilt and merger :<br \/>\nIt is a common phenomenon in the Indian party system. Various reasons contributed for this split like ideological differences, egoism, power hunger, etc.<\/p>\n<p>4. End of single-party era:<br \/>\nIndia was under Congress rule till 1977. The happenings between 1975-1977, forced small parties to unite and fight against Congress and capture power and put an end to the single party era.<\/p>\n<p>5. Dissident activities:<br \/>\nMeanness of leaders like personal attitudes, favouritism, nepotism lead to dissident activities. Repetition of such happenings instigates leaders to go against the ideology of the party and paves way to political instability.<\/p>\n<p>6. Defection:<br \/>\nElected members of the Legislature change their parties often for personal benefits or differences of opinion and other reasons. It ruins the values of democracy and destabilizes the government.<\/p>\n<p>7.

Alliances without principles:<br \/>\nPolitical parties are formed with principles of democracy and secularism but they ignore them for want of power and make unholy alliances.<\/p>\n<p>9. Dominance of Regional parties:<br \/>\nThe presence of regional parties during the first general elections did not influence the voters and they were rejected. During 1980s, they emerged very strong and dominated the<br \/>\npolitical scenario, e.g. DMK, ALADMK, Telugu Desam, Shiv Sena, National Conference, AGP, JD(S), RJD, SJP, BJD and other parties playing a significant role during the formation of Governments.<\/p>\n<p>10. Religious, Lingual and Regionalism:<br \/>\nThe basis of political parties in India is religion, language, regionalism and the like. e.g. Muslim league, Akalidal, Shiv Sena, DMK, AIADMK, Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti (MES) Telangana Rashtriya Samiti (TRS) and others. In spite of the rules of the Election Commission, such political parties exist.<\/p>\n<p>11. Leftist and Rightist Parties: Party system in India consists of Leftist and Rightist ideologies, e.g. CPI, CPI (M), Forward Block, RPI and Socialist parties who have belief in revolutionary ideology and drastic changes in the system form the left front. Parties like Congress, BJP, SP, NCP, BSP, RJD, JD (U), JD (S) and others who believe in moderate changes in the system form the right front.<\/p>\n<p>12. The era of coalition:<br \/>\nWhen no single political party secures absolute majority like minded political parties come together and join as a single largest group to form a coalition Government. The era of coalition started during 1977 when Janata Party came to power headed by Sri Morarjee Desai as Prime Minister at the centre along with other parties. This was followed by National Front, United Front, NDA, UPA etc.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kseebsolutions.guru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/KSEEB-Solutions-300x28.png\" alt=\"KSEEB Solutions\" width=\"172\" height=\"16\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 36.<br \/>\nTerrorism is posing a threat to democracy Substantiate.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nTerrorism is an act of vengeance, which is intended to create fear among the people, is perpetrated for an ideological goal and deliberately targeted by disregarding the safety of non combatants.

This development led to the establishment of International Organisations. In the meanwhile, the &#8216; outbreak of first world war intensified the need for international political system. As a result, the League of Nations was conceived and it came 5 into existence in 1920.<\/p>\n<p>League of Nations:<br \/>\nTo protect the world from self destruction of war and restoration of peace, the League of Nations came into existence. It was founded on the heritage of ideas and experience. of world leaders. The League was a real organisation with a legal entity, organs and agencies of its own. President Woodrow Wilson was the architect of this organisation. The league had three organs:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Assembly<\/li>\n<li>Council<\/li>\n<li>International Secretariat.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It was an organised Association of States for the purpose of international co-operation, settlement of disputes and prevention of future wars.

The entry of the youth to politics is curbed by systematic suppression. They do not exercise their franchise because of Political apathy. Many of them do not perceive politics in a right perspective. They are not ready to participate in mudslinging acts during the elections. Women who constitute almost half the population do not adequately participate either in national or state politics because of male domination and influence,<\/p>\n<p>OR<\/p>\n<p>Describe the similarities in India &#8211; USSR relations.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nRussia is the world\u2019s largest country extending halfway round the globe. To the west, it borders Finland, Norway, Estonia, Latvia and Belarus. The much longer southern frontier extends into central Asia. India\u2019s relation with the former USSR has been a part of history, but it developed rapidly after the visits of Khrushchev and Bulganin to India and Nehru\u2019s visit to Soviet Union.<\/p>\n<p>Since 1955, India- Soviet relations have reached a new scale and dimension and regarded as a good example of bilateral and inter-state relations. The Soviet openly declared that Indo-Soviet friendship had become a part of their \u2018tradition\u2019, \u2018people to people relationship\u2019, \u2018a comer stone\u2019 of their foreign.<\/p>\n<p>policy Soviet Union contributed immensely for the development of industries and technology in India. The defence ties between the two countries helped India in building a credible defence structure. Its steadfast diplomatic support in the UN, on the Kashmir and Goa issues, is commendable.<\/p>\n<p>The use of Veto Power in the Security Council to support India in 1971 war with Pakistan was crucial. Soviet Russia adopted Communist ideology and India accepted Democratic Socialism. Despite the ideological differences, the two countries forged a long time treaty of friendship for 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>Factors for Indo-USSR close ties:<br \/>\n1. Both India and USSR consider the peaceful settlement of disputes between states as most crucial for the future of the human race.<\/p>\n<p>2. Both believe in national freedom and social equality as pre-requisite of just world order.<\/p>\n<p>3. Support to liberation movements across the world is recognized by both countries.<\/p>\n<p>4. Both Countries oppose all forms of colonialism, imperialism and racial, discrimination.<br \/>\nThus India and USSR realized geopolitical significance and the need to strengthen bilateral ties. This is to ensure the settlement of regional problems and establishment of global peace and prosperity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Students can Download 2nd PUC Political Science Model Question Paper 2 with Answers, Karnataka 2nd PUC Political Science Model Question Papers with Answers helps you to revise the complete Karnataka State Board Syllabus and score more marks in your examinations.
