For twenty five years, residents of Taj Nagar village near Gurgaon lobbied for a railway
station in their village. When their demand was not met, the villagers decided to take the
matters into their own hands. They pooled in twenty one lakh rupees and built a railway
station on their own.
1) How long did the residents of Taj Nagar wait for the railway station?
2) What did they decide when their demand was not fulfilled?
3) How many rupees did they collect to build their own railway station?
There are a large number of people in the village who need to go to Gurgaon, Delhi and
Rewar. Till now, the people had to either go to Halimandi or Patli to catch a train. Both
the stations are six kilometers away from Taj Nagar.
6) Which were the nearest railway stations for the residents of Taj Nagar?
Mr.ROY
The panchayat passed a resolution in 2008 saying that since the railway was not able to
build a station for them, they would do it for themselves and with their own money. On
January 2010, the first railway station of the country started operation on which the
railway did not have to spend a single rupee.

two LED lights and a mobile charging point to all paying households at a cost of twenty
five rupees per week. The roof of a sturdy, brick walled home in each village is always
chosen as the site for the panels and the battery.

The science of fireworks is technically called 'pyrotechnics' from the Greek word, 'pyer'
meaning fire and 'technics' meaning an art. Pyrotechnics includes not only fireworks but
also a whole range of devices that use similar materials and principles, from safety
matches that we use every day to solid fuel rocket boosters of the space shuttle. The
household match is considered a special pyrotechnic device, as all the pyrotechnic
effects- heat, smoke, light; gas and sound are present in it.
The Chinese are generally considered the pioneers of pyrotechnics. It was only 1242 that
an English monk, Roger Bacon revealed the formula of black powder. He considered it
such a dangerous substance that he wrote of it in a code language.
Mr.ROY
The pyrotechnics is a blend of potassium nitrate, charcoal and sulphur in the ratio of
75:15:10 by weight. In the last century, the discovery of aluminum, magnesium and
titanium which burn at high temperatures emitting bright light improve the brilliance of
fireworks.
8) Which elements are burning at high temperatures?
In India, fireworks used to be imported from China. During the Second World War, these
imports were stopped and the safety match producers of Si vakasi in Tamil Nadu began
manufacturing fireworks for Deepawali. In 1992 , the country used about 60 crore worth
of firework and 60 to 70 percent of these came from Sivakasi.
lO)From where were the fireworks imported before Second World War?

I still remember that morning of the year 1887. I was just seven years of age then. My
teacher Anne Sullivan came to our house that day. Next day she led me into her room and
gave me a doll.
The second stage of learning was more difficult. It was also based on the stage of touch.
Miss Sullivan would speak a word, and ask me to touch her lips and throat slowly. I
learnt to speak through the movements of the lips and the vibration in the throat.
Mr.ROY
I remember my first day at the Redcliff College in 1990. Here I began to write about my

edited by John Macy. The writing was published in a magazine in 1903 and I was paid
for it.

gods. The Asurs were demons. The Asurs were powerful, capable of all kinds of
wickedness. Some of them were great rulers and mighty kings.

There are two types of birds: birds of prey and small birds. Birds of prey hunt small birds
for food. The female bird should be dull to hide itself from hunters as it is supposed to
continue generations.
Let's talk about Indian Grey Hombill. Its habitat is both in wild as well as urban areas,
especially large trees. Its beak or bill has an extra portion like a horn and that's why it is
called hombill. The female enters the nest hollow and seals it by using mud pellets
supplied by the male. For its caring behavior for female, it is called Vahu Ghelo in some
areas of our state, meaning one who takes extra care of his wife.
Mr.ROY 14

The people of Taj Nagar had to go to Halimandi or Patti to catch the train. Both the
stations were 6 km away from Taj Nagar. When the railway line passed through their
village, they thought that they would have a railway station in their own village. But, it
didn't happen. So, they raised the demand for the railway station in 1982. They had
continuously asked for the station but the railways rejected their demand saying that the
railways did not have funds. The villagers decided to build the railway station with their
own money. They collected Twenty One Lack rupees and built the station. On 7 January,
2010, their dream came true. It was India's first railway station where the railways did
not have to spend a single rupee.

When the exam time comes, the students feel stressed and confused. They do not have
particular methods of memorize the information. They read much but they hardly
remember anything. Most of the students have the problem of retention. But, there is no

work on it. They should identify the different methods for different subjects. When they
adopt more than one style, it helps in learning. By doing so, they can improve their
retention and remember the information for a long.

POEM: 1 .. MY SONG
The song of mine will wind its music around you, my child,
Like the fond arms of love.
This song of mine will touch your forehead like a kiss of blessing.
When you are alone it will sit by your side and whisper in your ear,
When you are in the crowd, it will fence you about with aloofness.
My song will be like a pair of wings to your dreams,
It will transport your heart to the verge of the unknown.
It will be like the faithful star overhead when dark night is over your head.
My song will sit in the pupils of your eyes, and will carry your sight into the heart of
things.
And when my voice is silent in death, my song will speak in your living heart.

After the death of Krishna, the Pandavas along with Draupadi felt that life was not worth
living. They lost interest in everything. They made Parikshit, son of Abhimanyu, the
emperor and decided to leave Hastinapur for great journey. Dressed in tree barks and deer
skin, they stopped at the palace where the people of the city bade them farewell.
The Pandavas travelled towards the north. In a few days, they reached the Himalayas.
They started climbing the mountains. When they came to the mountain Meru, all of them
were tired and exhausted. And then, a dreadful thing happened. Draupadi fell down dead.
The Pandavas were shocked, but they could do nothing. They had to continue their
journey. Sahadeva was the next to fall. "He was proud of his wisdom. That is why he had
to die," said Yudhishthira.

parts of Pakistan, Nepal and some other countries. In India, it is found mainly in
Maharashtra, Orissa, Punjab, Rajasthan, Haryana, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu
and Karnataka. In Gujarat, blackbucks are seen in Saurashtra. Its original habitat is open

Bhal region of Saurashtra. Though the park is open throughout the year, the period
between monsoon and winter normally, mid June to March end is a good period to see
the blackbucks. According to the Indian mythology, blackbuck or Krishna Jinka is

A warrior killed his master. He repented immediately but the deed was done and he knew
that if he was caught, he would be put to death. So he ran away. He reached a remote
village that was separated from the rest of the world by a mountain. The murderer
decided to repent for his sin by single handedly cutting a road through the mountain to
connect the village with the rest of the world. He worked from dawn to dusk and in four
years had made halfway into the mountain. One morning when he was hard at work in
the tunnel, a young man called out to him to come out. He was the son of the man who
was murdered. He wanted to take revenge.

Dr. Jagdish Chandra Bose was a great Indian scientist. He surprised the whole world with
the declaration that the plants too have feelings. They live like other living things. He
also discovered that like other living beings, the plants are also hurt and shocked. By
another experiment he also showed that the plants could also be made unconscious by
some strong poisonous chemicals. In 1902, Dr. Jagdish Chandra Bose wrote many
articles about his experiments on plants kingdom. He published them in his book 'The
Reaction of Living and Non Living.'
Dr. Bose invented an instrument. It is called 'Optical Pulse Recorder' which can record
the process of contraction in plants. He also proved that the carbon dioxide affects the life
of plant very badly. In 1918, Dr. Bose developed a new instrument 'Cresco graph' which
can enlarged the movements of plants ten thousand times.
