Caste in Politics
However, we also need to keep in mind that the caste system always does not play a role in shaping politics or deciding the candidates from a constituency. This is due to the following reasons:
- Not every constituency in the country has a clear majority of one single caste. Therefore, every party is required to win the trust of the people belonging to different castes.
- No political party wins all the votes of a particular favoured caste or community. When people say that caste is a ‘vote bank’, they simply mean that many people from that one particular caste may vote for the party.
- Because several political parties fight elections, there may be many candidates from the same caste fighting elections against each other.
- It has been seen that many elected MPs or MLAs may lose the elections. If candidates are elected on caste lines, then no candidate can ever lose the elections.

In 1991, the Government of India liberalised its policy and felt that Indian producers must compete with producers around the world.
The Government had an opinion that trade competition would improve the performance of the local producers within the country since they will be forced to improve their quality.
Thus, Indian Government removed barriers to a large extent on foreign trade and foreign investment.

- Population growth from the late 18th century had increased the demand for food grains in Britain.
- As urban centres expanded and industries grew, the demand for agricultural products increased, pushing up food grain prices.
- Under pressure from landed groups, the government also restricted the import of corn.
- The laws allowing the government to do this were commonly known as ‘Corn Laws’.
- Unhappy with high food prices, industrialists and urban dwellers forced the abolition of the Corn Laws.

- Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the market value of the final goods and services produced during a year within the domestic territory of a country.
- Here only final goods and services are counted to avoid the problem of double counting.
- For e.g. a farmer sold wheat to flour mill for Rs. 10 per kg. The mill grinds the wheat and sold the flour to a biscuit company for Rs. 12 per kg. The biscuit company uses the flour, sugar and butter to make 5 biscuit packets. He sold the biscuit to the consumer at Rs. 15 per biscuit packet.
- Here biscuits are the final goods that are purchased by the consumer. Wheat and wheat flour are the intermediate goods used in the production of final good.
- The value of Rs. 75 already includes the value of flour Rs. 12.
- Hence only the value of final goods and services.
Therefore, GDP = Value of output − Intermediate Consumption

Greece had been a part of the Ottoman empire since the 15th century. With the growth of liberal and Nationalist ideas in Europe in the 19th century, the educated elite among the Greeks mobilized nationalist feelings and began a movement for Greek independence in the year 1821. Poets and artists eulogized Greece as the cradle of European civilisation and made attempts to galvanise the masses into action. Through continuous struggle, the Greeks did succeed in gaining independence eventually. Through the Treaty of Constantinople of 1832, the independence of Greece was recognised.
Culture played an important role in creating the idea of the Green nation. Arts, poetry, folktales and music all helped express and articulate Greek nationalist aspirations.
