Section 'A'
(Modern India)

1. Critically examine the following statements in


about 150 words each : 12x5=60

(a) "The current practice of categorization of


`Early Modern India' is based on a shift from
the old imperialist periodization of 'Muslim
India' — 'British India' to the more secularist
one of 'Medieval India' — 'Modern India',
which puts Indian history in a universalist
chronological structure."

(b) "Compared to their English counterpart, the


French East India Company enjoyed little
discretionary power and had to always look up
to Paris for all major decisions. This partly
explains the failure of the French in India."

(c) "The peasant movements of the second half of


the nineteenth century lacked a positive
conception of an alternative society — a
conception which would unite the people in a
common struggle on a wide regional and
all-India plane and help develop long-term
political developments."

(d) "Plantations and mines, jute mills, banking,


insurance, shipping and export-import
concerns in India were run through a system of
interlocking managing agencies."
