In 1600, the English East India Company was established through a  charter signed by Queen Elizabeth I  in 1600. The charter granted the company the permission to trade with India. In 1608,  Captain Hawkins visited the court of Jahangir  but he was denied any trading rights. However, in 1619, when Sir Thomas Roe visited the court, they were allowed to set up their first factory in Surat(authorised factory). Gradually, the company was successful in setting up its factories at other places also such as Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai.’ The agents of the English Company soon became familiar with Indian customs and languages. They learnt  Persian, the official language of the Mughals.  The English agents of this period lived like Indians, intermarried Indians, and most of them settled here permanently. All this gave the English an edge over their other European rivals. The English set up their factories in  Masulipatnam (1611) , Agra, Ahmedabad, Baroda, Broach (1619), Armagaon near  Pulicat

The Historical Background Indianisation of the superior civil services became one of the major demands of the political movement, compelling the British Indian government to consider the setting up of a Public Service Commission for recruitment of candidates to its services in the Union territory. The first Public Service Commission was set up on 1 October 1926. However, its limited advisory functions failed to satisfy the people’s aspirations and the continued stress on this aspect by the leaders of our freedom movement resulted in the setting up of the Federal Public Service Commission under the Government of India Act, 1935. Under this Act, for the first time, provision was also made for the formation of Public Service Commissions at the provincial level. The Constituent Assembly, after independence, saw the need for giving a secure and autonomous status to Public Service Commissions, both at the Federal and Provincial levels, for ensuring unbiased recruitment to civil services, a

We can make decisions about the data by analysing and interpreting it. Central line tendency Mean : The mean or average of a number of observation is the sum of the value of all the observation divided by the total number of the observations. It is denoted by the symbol ,  read as x bar Here n is a number of observation. Example-  people were asked about the time in a week they spend in doing social work in their community. They said 10, 7, 13, 20 and 15 hours respectively.Find the mean (or average) time in a week devoted by them in social work.

Yesterday can be termed as a Black Day in the history as it claimed many lives.  There are times when language fails, whether you’re in Asia, the America, Europe or elsewhere. These moments often involve extreme emotions: sadness and joy, fear and love. And this one is really sad as yesterday was the black day for all football fans and also for the people who wish for world peace as two heart-chilling incidents took place.  First, there was another attack in Nagrota, J&k in which three militants  in police uniform attacked an army artillery unit in which 2 officers and 5 Jawan were killed, however, all three militants were killed in the encounter. We salute the courage and bravery of the defence personnel martyred yesterday in J&K. They served the nation with utmost dedication. We are all saddened by their demise, may their souls rest in peace. They were the fine young men and a credit to the uniform they wore. They are true heroes and country will long remember their valour

As you are aware, our honourable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi has announced demonetisation of old notes of Rs.500 and Rs.1000. This is a very radical and revolutionary step taken by our Prime Minister. No ordinary leader can even think of such tough steps to deal with the plague of black money. This has long term benefits for all countrymen -   Black money hoarders  will have a tough time. Now they will be left with no option other than depositing the money in their bank account or burning the stashed notes. Fake notes circuit  will be dismantled immediately.

Billionaire-turned-politician Donald Trump  has been elected the 45th President of the United States. The Republican party candidate secured the support of  276 of the 538  members of the electoral college, beating Democratic party rival Hillary Clinton. President-elect Trump will formally take charge of the Oval Office  on January 20, 2017, dubbed as the 'Inauguration Day'. Initially, the Indian citizens who were indeed watching the election with incredulity, did not have very strong opinions about any of the candidates. This is mainly because this year’s campaign was fought more on scandals than on policies which include historical load and the diaspora. But if one has followed the campaigns closely, it can be said that the outcome of this election will affect trade ties between America and other countries. But if it will affect India, is debatable, as Indian economy is already doing very well, along with the fact that our foreign policies regarding each other are so stron
