First railway line in India

Railway were introduced in India for the benefit of the British administration,political control and trade.But railways brought many changes in the lives of Indians.People from different parts of india came in close contact.This communication brought about an awareness against social evils,need of education and freedom from foreign exploitation.
          Indian Railways made a beginning on april 6,1853 when the very first train ran over a stretch of 21 miles from Bombay to Thane.It consisted of 14 railways carriages and 400 guests.It started his journey with a salute of 21 guns.
       The British introduced railways for:-

• Commercial advantage- Railways collected raw material from fields and mines and sent them to the ports to be transported to England to feed the British industries.
• Defence aspect - Most importantly, the railways helped in the defence of British  possesions in India from military attacks of other impereliast countries,who were trying to expand their influence.
• Political aspect - Railways safeguarded the British possesions in different parts of India with the quick movement of armed forces and administrative convienence.
• Investment of surplus income- Railways opened new area where investments earned huge profits.

The kalka mail from howrah to kalka was introduced to make the annual migration of British officials . Their families and their survants  and clerks from the imperial capital at calcutta to the summer capital in shimla.From kalka, there is still a narrow gauge to shimla that passes through 103 tunnels.

the first war of independence-1857

The revolt of 1857 was the landmark in the history of India's struggle for freedom.It started on may 10,1857 with the mutiny of soldiers in meerut cantonment.The revolutionery soldiers marched towards Delhi.On may11, 1857 delhi was a mute witness to band sepoys who crossed over Yamuna and entered the leadership of the revolt.He as proclaimed the Shahenshah-e-Hindustan.The sepoys captured the city of Delhi killed many Englishmen and ransacked many public offices.
                            Though the revolt was started by the Indian soldiers in the service of the East India Company,it soon spread to different parts of country.different sections of the society like peasants,artisans,soldiers,educated Indians and many Indian rules joined hands to fight heroically against the foreign rule.Hindus and Muslims are come together to oppose the foreign domination.
                 The event was also called the uprising,the revolt of 1857 or the sepoy mutiny by the British.But Indian historians call it the First war of independence as it was the first time that different sections of indian society united and fought as one nation to throw off the shackles of foreign domination.
                    Ever since the British had set foot on Indian soil,the nation was losing its wealth and independence.The aim of the British was to exploit the resources the resources of our country.From 1757 onwords,they won almost every battle against the Indian ruler and kept on expanding their area of control.They sent Indian wealth back home to England.This angered the Indians later,in 1857,a number of Indians revolted against the exploitation.
       
      

Acharya chanakya

In the previous two blogs i was talking about two kings Chandragupt maurya and the great king ashok.But behind their success there is only one reason i.e ACHARYA

CHANAKYA.Acharya chanykya was the great teacher 

and economist of india.His full name is Vishnugupt chanakya.

when he was a child his father was killed by Dhananand the king of magadh.He had gone to taksshila for study and become a acharya(teacher).when he came back to magadh he see that people of magadh was torture by
Dhananand.Then he decided that he will remove Dhananand from his throne and will make that person a king who care for his people.He taught Chandragupt maurya to become a king.Acharya chanakya has made many morality which are listed below:-

• A man is born alone and dies alone and he experiences the good and bad consequences of his karma alone and he goes alone to hell and supreme abode.
• A man is great by deeds not by birth.
• A person should not be too honest.straight trees are cut first and honest people are screwed first.
• As soon as the fear approaches near,attack and destroy it.
• Even snake is not a poisonous ,it should pretend to be venomous.

Mahan Samrat Ashoka

In the previous blog i talked about the king Chandragupt mourya now i am talking about the great king MAHAN SAMRAT ASHOK

he was the first king whose name is called the GREAT.The great king Ashok was the grandson of Chandragupt mourya and son of Bindusar. The great king Ashok fight with their brothers to become a king .His elder brother Sushim was always jealous from him.Radhagupt who was the disciple of acharya chanykya supported ashok to become a king.The great king ashok killed his brothers and become a king because their brothers always tried to kill him but they never get success.and when he became a king he explore their kingdom acoss india upto the afganistan. He always wanted to win anyhow.Initially he killed many people but in kaling yudh he saw that lakh of people has died in the kaling yudh he realised how brutal king he is then he decided that he will never fight again,never kill anybody and he adopted budh dharm. 

then he began to serve the public and become a MAHAN SAMRAT ASHOK.

Chandragupt mourya was the first indian king who explore their kingdom from magadh(bihar) to afganistan but you know he was labourour son . now you want to know how he had become king from labour yes this is a interesting question arise in your mind .the reason is acharya(teacher) Chanykya who was the greatest teacher and economist of india. he trained chandragupt mourya to become a king because Chanykya wanted that there should be unity in every states of india then he wanted that king should be that person who can inspire people for unity and make india in one nation
then he was searching to find that person who can generate unity in people then he found a child who was playing with their friends and he act like a king and he was saying to his friend that there should not be any partiality between anybody and when Chanykya saw that then he decided that this child should become the king  and that child was Chandragupt mourya.
