Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Note types of context clue (restatement, definition, synonyms, antonyms) pdf
1. The five types of context clues are:
1. Definition/Explanation Clues
Sometimes a word's or phrase's meaning is explained immediately after its use.
Example: "Haberdashery, which is a store that sells men’s clothing, is becoming more
common today.”
2. Restatement/Synonym Clues
Sometimes a hard word or phrase is said in a simple way.
Example: "Lou was sent to the haberdashery to find a new suit. He needed to wear
one for his uncle’s wedding."
Because the sentence says that Lou would find a suit at the haberdashery, then
it must be a place where clothes for men are sold.
3. Contrast/Antonym Clues
Sometimes a word or phrase is clarified by the presentation of the opposite meaning
somewhere close to its use. Look for signal words when applying context clues.
Example: "Lou wanted to go to the haberdashery, but Ann wanted to shop at the boutique.”
The signal word but tells the reader that an opposite thought is going to be stated.
4. Inference/General Context Clues
Sometimes a word or phrase is not immediately clarified within the same sentence.
Relationships, which are not directly apparent, are inferred or implied. The reader must
look for clues within, before, and after the sentence in which the word is used.
Example: “The haberdashery was Lou’s favorite place. He loved shopping for nice suits.
The people who worked there were so kind and helpful.”
Readers can also use clues of punctuation and type style to infer meaning, such as
quotation marks (showing the word has a special meaning), dashes , parentheses or
brackets (enclosing a definition), and italics (showing the word will be defined).
5. Punctuation
Examples: Tom's father was a haberdasher, or men’s shop keeper, in the story.
Tom's father was a haberdasher (men’s shop keeper) in the story.
In the story, Tom's father was a haberdasher-or men’s shop keeper.
Tom's father was a “haberdasher”. He had a clothing store for men.
