During British rule, the people of India were made to obey laws they had no role in the making of. People did not agree with the decisions imposed on them and lived in fear of the British Government. As they fought for independence, they were inspired by the ideals of freedom, equality and participation. They wanted to have a say in the government and its decision-making. With independence from British rule, it was now up to the people of India to decide their destiny. It is important to let the people decide because the actions and decisions of the government affect the people of the country directly. They have every right to decide on matters which affect them.

In a democracy, the government is formed after elections. After the elections, a list is prepared which indicates the winner of each Lok Sabha seat. These winners become the Members of Parliament (MPs). The political party with the majority of these MPs forms the government. Since there are 543 seats in Lok Sabha, a party must secure at least half i.e. 272 seats in Parliament to form a government. Sometimes, no single political party is able to win 272 seats on its own and get the majority to form the government. In that situation, two or more political parties with similar concerns join together to get the majority and form a Coalition Government.

Permanent Settlemen: As the Company worried about declining revenues, it introduced the Permanent Settlement of Bengal in 1793. It was introduced by Lord Cornwallis. According to this settlement, the rajas and taluqdars were recognised as the zamindars of the land. They had to collect rent from the peasants and pay the revenues to the Company. The amount to be paid to the Company was fixed permanently. The Company thought that this would ensure a steady and regular flow of revenues to them and would encourage the zamindar to invest in the improvement of the land

According to the definition adopted by the IAU in 2006, a dwarf planet is, “a celestial body orbiting a star that is massive enough to be rounded by its own gravity but has not cleared its neighboring region of planetesimals and is not a satellite. More explicitly, it has to have sufficient mass to overcome its compressive strength and achieve hydrostatic equilibrium.”

The decline of the Indian iron smelting industry has following reasons: (i) The main reason was the forest laws which were formed by the British Government in India. Through these laws, when the colonial British government prevented people from entering the reserved forests, it became very difficult for the iron smelters to find wood for charcoal and to get iron ore. (ii) In some areas, the. government did grant access to the forest. But the iron smelters had to pay a very high tax to the forest department for every furnace they used. This adversely affected their income or earnings. (iii) By the late nineteenth century iron and steel was being imported from Britain. Iron smiths in India began using the imported iron to manufacturing utensils and implements. This inevitably lowered the demand for iron produced by local smelters. (iv) By the early twentieth century, the artisans producing iron and steel faced a new competition.

The Parliament, while in session, begins with a question hour. The question hour is an important mechanism through which MPs can elicit information about the working of the government. This is a very important way through which the Parliament controls the executive. By asking questions the government is alerted to its shortcomings, and also comes to know the opinion of the people through their representatives in the Parliament, i.e. the MPs. Asking questions of the government is a crucial task for every MP. The Opposition parties play a critical role in the healthy functioning of a democracy. They highlight drawbacks in various policies and programmes of the government and mobilise popular support for their own policies.
