ECONOMY
India economy, the third largest economy in the world, in terms of purchasing power, is
going to touch new heights in coming years. As predicted by Goldman Sachs, the
Global Investment Bank, by 2035 India would be the third largest economy of the
world just after US and China. It will grow to 60% of size of the US economy. This
booming economy of today has to pass through many phases before it can achieve the
current milestone of 9% GDP.

The history of Indian economy can be broadly divided into three phases: Pre-
Colonial, Colonial and Post Colonial.

Pre Colonial: The economic history of India since Indus Valley Civilization to 1700 AD
can be categorized under this phase. During Indus Valley Civilization Indian economy
was very well developed. It had very good trade relations with other parts of
world, which is evident from the coins of various civilizations found at the site of
Indus valley.
LANGUAGE
    The languages of India belong to several language families, the major ones being the Indo-Aryan languages
(spoken by 72% of Indians) and the Dravidian languages (spoken by 25% of Indians).[1] Other languages spoken in
India belong to the Austro-Asiatic, Tibeto-Burman, and a few minor language families and isolates.[2]
    The principal official language of the Republic of India is Standard Hindi, while English is the secondary
official language.[3] The constitution of India states that "The official language of the Union shall be Hindi in
Devanagari script."[4] Neither the Constitution of India nor Indian law specifies a national language, a position
supported by a High Court ruling.[5] However, languages listed in the Eighth Schedule of the Indian constitution
are sometimes referred to, without legal standing, as the national languages of India.[6][7]
    Individual mother tongues in India number several hundred;[8] the 1961 census recognized 1,652[9] (SIL
Ethnologue lists 415). According to Census of India of 2001, 30 languages are spoken by more than a million
native speakers, 122 by more than 10,000. Three millennia of language contact has led to significant mutual
influence among the four language families in India and South Asia. Two contact languages have played an
important role in the history of India: Persian and English
ARCHITECTURE
Māru-Gurjara Temple Architecture originated somewhere in sixth
century in and around areas of Rajasthan. Māru-Gurjara Architecture
show the deep understanding of structures and refined skills of
Rajasthani craftmen of bygone era. Māru-Gurjara Architecture has two
prominent styles Maha-Maru and Maru-Gurjara. According to M.
A. Dhaky, Maha-Maru style developed primarily in
Marudesa, Sapadalaksa, Surasena and parts of Uparamala whereas Maru-
Gurjara originated in Medapata, Gurjaradesa-Arbuda, Gurjaradesa-
Anarta and some areas of Gujarat.[14] Scholars such as George
Michell, M.A. Dhaky, Michael W. Meister and U.S. Moorti believe that
Māru-Gurjara Temple Architecture is entirely Western Indian architecture
and is quite different from the North Indian Temple architecture.[15]
There is a connecting link between Māru-Gurjara Architecture and
Hoysala Temple Architecture. In both of these styles architecture is
treated sculpturally.[16]
POET
Sarojini Chattopadhyay was born at Hyderabad on February 13, 1879 the eldest of a large family, all of
whom were taught English at an early age. At the age of twelve she passed the Matriculation of the
Madras University, and awoke to find herself famous throughout India.




 Before she was fifteen the great struggle of her life began. Dr. Govindurajulu Naidu, later to
become her husband was, though of an old and honourable family, not a Brahmin. The difference of
caste roused an equal opposition, not only on the side of her family, but of his; and in 1895 she was sent
to England, against her will, with a special scholarship from the Nizam. She remained in England, with
an interval of travel in Italy, till 1898, studying first at King's College, London, then, till her health again
broke down, at Girton. She returned to Hyderabad in September 1898, and in the December of that
year, to the scandal of all India, broke through the bonds of caste, and married Dr. Naidu.
NOVELIST
     The students of Gurushree Vidya Kendra, Doddabidarakallu reviewed the novel. Abhinava Publications has published the debut
novel of this youngest novelist. Priced at Rs 100, the novel is available at all the leading book stores in the city.

     Though Youngest Novelist She Aims to be Astronomer

     Age, it is said, is just a number. It does not come in the way of realizing ambitions, if you have the will. And Harshita is an example.
She is the youngest in India to have penned an English novel.

     A student of std VII at City’s Delhi Public School, Harshita is a sworn bibliophile. Bitten by the book bug, she has a small library of
her own and reads at least two novels a week. ‘Ruby Rush’ a scientific fiction, is the maiden novel of this 12-year-old prodigy.

     Set in the United Kingdom, a place Harshita is yet to visit, the 110-page sci-fi deals with a scientist infusing life to an inanimate
object. The object then goes missing and what follows is a heroic mission to recover it. The subtext of the plot is that science cannot infuse
life into an object and even if succeeds in doing so, the attempt is sure to be misused.

     Inspired by her mother Shivani and author like Stephenie Meyer, Harshita took about one year for Harshita to complete the novel.

     However, Harshita does not nurse the ambition to become an author. She wants to pursue higher education in astronomy. Her
writing hasn’t come in the way of her academics. She uses her leisure hours for her passion. Keen on going through the new
releases, Harshita visits all the prominent book stores in the City at least thrice in a month. And her parents purchase the books of her
choice without any second thought.
ARTIST

 Amrita Sher-Gil (Punjabi:                      )(                )
(January 30, 1913,[1] – December 5, 1941), was an eminent Indian
painter born to a Punjabi Sikh father and a Hungarian mother,
sometimes known as India's Frida Kahlo,[2] and today considered an
important woman painter of 20th century India, whose legacy stands
at par with that of the Masters of Bengal Renaissance;[3][4] she is also
the 'most expensive' woman painter of India.[
