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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

6. Textile printing is the process of applying colour to fabric in definite patterns or
designs. In properly printed fabrics the colour is bonded with the fibre, so as to
resist washing and friction. Textile printing is related to dyeing but in dyeing properly
the whole fabric is uniformly covered with one colour, whereas in printing one or
more colours are applied to it in certain parts only, and in sharply defined patterns.
In printing, wooden blocks, stencils, engraved plates, rollers, or silkscreens can be
used to place colours on the fabric. Colorants used in printing contain dyes thickened
to prevent the colour from spreading by capillary attraction beyond the limits of the
pattern or design.
In the process of printing color designs are developed on fabrics by printing with
dyes and pigments in paste form with specially designed machines.
Printing is used to apply colour only on localized areas.
Printed fabrics, usually have clear-cut edges in the printed portions on the face of the
fabric. Printing allows flexibility in creating great designs, and enables the creation of
relatively inexpensive, patterned fabric.
Woodblock printing is a technique for printing text, images or patterns used widely
throughout East Asia and probably originating in China in antiquity as a method of
printing on textiles and later paper. As a method of printing on cloth, the earliest
surviving examples from China date to before 220.
Textile printing was known in Europe, via the Islamic world, from about the 12th
century, and widely used. However, the European dyes tended to liquify, which
restricted the use of printed patterns. Fairly large and ambitious designs were printed
for decorative purposes such as wall-hangings and lectern-cloths, where this was
less of a problem as they did not need washing. When paper became common, the
technology was rapidly used on that for woodcut prints. Superior cloth was also
imported from Islamic countries, but this was much more expensive.
The Incas of Peru, Chile and the Aztecs of Mexico also practiced textile printing
previous to the Spanish Invasion in 1519; but owing to the lack of records before that
date, it is impossible to say whether they discovered the art for themselves, or, in
some way, learned its principles from the Asiatics.
During the latter half of the 17th century the French brought directly by sea, from
their colonies on the east coast of India, samples of Indian blue and white resist
prints, and along with them, particulars of the processes by which they had been
produced, which produced washable fabrics.
As early as the 1630s, the East India Company was bringing in printed and plain
cotton for the English market. By the 1660s British printers and dyers were making
their own printed cotton to sell at home, printing single colors on plain backgrounds;
less colourful than the imported prints, but more to the taste of the British. Designs
were also sent to India for their craftspeople to copy for export back to England.
There were many dyehouses in England in the latter half of the 17th
century, Lancaster being one area and on the River Lea near London another. Plain
cloth was put through a prolonged bleaching process which prepared the material to
receive and hold applied color; this process vastly improved the color durability of
English calicoes and required a great deal of water from nearby rivers.
One dyehouse was started by John Meakins, a London Quaker who lived
in Cripplegate. When he died, he passed his dyehouse to his son-in-law Benjamin

7. Ollive, Citizen and Dyer, who moved the dye-works to Bromley Hall where it
remained in the family until 1823, known as Benjamin Ollive and Company, Ollive &
Talwin, Joseph Talwin & Company and later Talwin & Foster. Samples of their
fabrics and designs can be found in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and
the Smithsonian Copper-Hewett in New York.
On the continent of Europe the commercial importance of calico printing seems to
have been almost immediately recognized, and in consequence it spread and
developed there much more rapidly than in England, where it was neglected for
nearly ninety years after its introduction. During the last two decades of the 17th
century and the earlier ones of the 18th new dye works were started in France,
Germany, Switzerland and Austria. It was only in 1738 that calico printing was first,
practiced in Scotland, and not until twenty-six years later that Messrs Clayton of
Bamber Bridge, near Preston, established in 1764 the first print-works in Lancashire,
and thus laid the foundation of the industry.
From an artistic point of view most of the pioneer work in calico printing was done by
the French. From the early days of the industry down to the latter half of the 20th
century, the productions of the French printers in Jouy, Beauvais, Rouen, and in
Alsace-Lorraine, were looked upon as representing all that was best in artistic calico
printing

8. Traditional textile printing techniques may be broadly categorized into four styles:
Direct printing, in which colorants containing dyes, thickeners, and
the mordants or substances necessary for fixing the color on the cloth are printed
in the desired pattern.
The printing of a mordant in the desired pattern prior to dyeing cloth; the color
adheres only where the mordant was printed.
Resist dyeing, in which a wax or other substance is printed onto fabric which is
subsequently dyed. The waxed areas do not accept the dye, leaving uncolored
patterns against a colored ground.
Discharge printing, in which a bleaching agent is printed onto previously dyed
fabrics to remove some or all of the colour.
Resist and discharge techniques were particularly fashionable in the 19th century, as
were combination techniques in which indigo resist was used to create blue
backgrounds prior to block-printing of other colors. Modern industrial printing mainly
uses direct printing techniques.
The printing process does involve several stages in order to prepare the fabric and
printing paste, and to fix the impression permanently on the fabric:
pre-treatment of fabric,
preparation of colors,
preparation of printing paste,
impression of paste on fabric using printing methods,
drying of fabric,
fixing the printing with steam or hot air (for pigments),
after process treatments.
Preparation of cloth for printing
Cloth is prepared by washing and bleaching. For a coloured ground it is then dyed.
The cloth has always to be brushed, to free it from loose nap, flocks and dust that it
picks up whilst stored. Frequently, too, it has to be sheared by being passed over
rapidly revolving knives arranged spirally round an axle, which rapidly and effectually
cuts off all filaments and knots, leaving the cloth perfectly smooth and clean and in a
condition fit to receive impressions of the most delicate engraving. Some fabrics
require very careful stretching and straightening on a stenter before they are wound
around hollow wooden or iron centers into rolls of convenient size for mounting on
the printing machines.
Preparation of colours
Further information: Dye
The art of making colours for textile printing demands both chemical knowledge and
extensive technical experience, for their ingredients must not only be in proper
proportion to each other, but also specially chosen and compounded for the
particular style of work in hand. A colour must comply to conditions such as shade,
quality and fastness; where more colours are associated in the same design each
must be capable of withstanding the various operations necessary for the

9. development and fixation of the others. All printing pastes whether containing
colouring matter or not are known technically as colours.
Colours vary considerably in composition. Most of them contain all the elements
necessary for direct production and fixation. Some, however, contain the colouring
matter alone and require various after-treatments; and others again are simply
thickened mordants. A mordant is a metallic salt or other substance that combines
with the dye to form an insoluble colour, either directly by steaming, or indirectly
by dyeing. All printing colours require thickening to enable them to be transferred
from colour-box to cloth without running or spreading beyond the limits of the pattern.
Thickening agents
The printing thickeners used depend on the printing technique, the fabric and the
particular dyestuff . Typical thickening agents are starch derivatives, flour, gum
arabic, guar gum derivatives, tamarind, sodium alginate, sodium polyacrylate, gum
Senegal and gum tragacanth, British gum or dextrine and albumen.
Hot-water-soluble thickening agents such as native starch are made into pastes by
boiling in double or jacketed pans. Most thickening agents used today are cold-
soluble and require only extensive stirring.
Starch paste
Starch paste is made from wheat starch, cold water, and olive oil, then thickened by
boiling. Non-modified starch is applicable to all but strongly alkaline or strongly acid
colours. With the former it thickens up to a stiff unworkable jelly. In the case of the
latter, while mineral acids or acid salts convert it into dextrine, thus diminishing
its viscosity or thickening power, organic acids do not have that effect.
Today, modified carboxymethylated cold soluble starches are mainly used. These
have a stable viscosity and are easy to rinse out of the fabric and give reproducible
"short" paste rheology.
Flour paste is made in a similar way to starch paste; it is sometimes used to thicken
aluminum and iron mordants. Starch paste resists of rice flour have been used for
several centuries in Japan.
Gums
Gum arabic and gum Senegal are both traditional thickenings, but expense prevents
them from being used for any but pale, delicate tints. They are especially useful
thickenings for the light ground colours of soft muslins and sateens on account of the
property they possess of dissolving completely out of the fibres of the cloth in the
post-printing washing process, and they have a long flowing, viscous rheology,
giving sharp print and good penetration in the cloth. Today guar gum and tamarind
derivates offer a cheaper alternative.
British gum or dextrin is prepared by heating starch. It varies considerably in
composition, sometimes being only slightly roasted and consequently only partly
converted into dextrine, and at other times being highly torrefied, and almost
completely soluble in cold water and very dark in colour. Its thickening power
decreases and its gummy nature increases as the temperature at which it is roasted
is raised. It is useful for strongly acid colours, and with the exception of gum
Senegal, it is the best choice for strongly alkaline colours and discharges. Like the
File
N
otC
opy
10. natural gums, it does not penetrate as well into the fibre of the cloth pr as deeply as
pure starch or flour and is unsuitable for very dark, strong colours.
Gum tragacanth, or Dragon, which may be mixed in any proportion with starch or
flour, is equally useful for pigment colours and mordant colours. When added to a
starch paste it increases its penetrative power and adds to its softness without
diminishing its thickness, making it easier to wash out of the fabric. It produces much
more even colours than does starch paste alone. Used by itself it is suitable for
printing all kinds of dark grounds on goods that are required to retain their soft clothy
feel.
Starch always leaves the printed cloth somewhat harsh in feeling (unless modified
carboxymethylated starches are used), but very dark colours can be obtained. Gum
Senegal, gum arabic or modified guar gum thickening yield clearer and more even
tints than does starch, suitable for lighter colours but less suited for very dark
colours. (The gums apparently prevent the colours from combining fully with the
fibers.) A printing stock solution is mostly a combination of modified starch and gum
stock solutions.
Albumen
Albumen is both a thickening and a fixing agent for insoluble pigments. Chrome
yellow, the ochres, vermilion and ultramarine are such pigments. Albumen is always
dissolved in the cold, a process that takes several days when large quantities are
required. Egg albumen is expensive and only used for the lightest shades. Blood
albumen solution is used in cases when very dark colours are required to be
absolutely fast to washing. After printing, albumen thickened colours are exposed to
hot steam, which coagulates the albumen and effectually fixes the colours.
Printing paste preparation
Combinations of cold water-soluble carboxymethylated starch, guar gum and
tamarind derivatives are most commonly used today in disperse screen printing on
polyester. Alginates are used for cotton printing with reactive dyes, sodium
polyacrylates for pigment printing, and in the case of vat dyes on cotton only
carboxymethylated starch is used.
Formerly, colors were always prepared for printing by boiling the thickening agent,
the colouring matter and solvents, together, then cooling and adding various fixing
agents. At the present time, however, concentrated solutions of the colouring matters
and other adjuncts are often simply added to the cold thickenings, of which large
quantities are kept in stock.
Colours are reduced in shade by simply adding more stock (printing) paste. For
example, a dark blue containing 4 oz. of methylene blue per gallon may readily be
made into a pale shade by adding to it thirty times its bulk of starch paste or gum, as
the case may be. The procedure is similar for other colours.
Before printing it is essential to strain or sieve all colours in order to free them from
lumps, fine sand, and other impurities, which would inevitably damage the highly
polished surface of the engraved rollers and result in bad printing. Every scratch on
the surface of a roller prints a fine line on the cloth, and too much care, therefore,
cannot be taken to remove, as far as possible, all grit and other hard particles from
every colour.

11. Straining is usually done by squeezing the colour through filter cloths like artisanal
fine cotton, silk or industrial woven nylon. Fine sieves can also be employed for
colours that are used hot or are very strongly alkaline or acid.

12. There are five main Types of printing a fabric, these being the block, roller, screen, heat
transfer and ink-jet methods. The heat transfer method differs from the others in that it
involves the transfer of color from the design printed on paper through the vapour phase into
the fibres of the fabric. With the other methods the dye or pigment is applied to the fabric
surface through a print paste medium. The ink jet printing process however is a
comparatively recent innovation and is referred to as a 'non-impact' method, because the
print paste is fired on to the textile from a jet which is not actually in contact with the fabric.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF PRINTING
Block Printing:
The blocks are usually made of wood and the design is hand carved, so that it stands out in
relief against the background surface. The print paste is applied to the design surface on the
block and the block then pressed against the fabric. The process is repeated with different
designs and colours until the pattern is complete.
Block printing is a slow, laborious process and is not suitable for high volume commercial
use. It is a method still practised in the oriental countries where markets exist for the types of
printed fabrics produced
Roller Printing:
Roller printing has traditionally been preferred for long production runs because of the very
high speeds possible. It is also a versatile technique since up to a dozen different colours
can be printed simultaneously. The basic roller printing equipment, shown in Fig. 7.1,
consists of a number of copper faced rollers in which the design is etched. There is a
separate printing roller for each colour being printed. Each of the rollers rotates over the
fabric under pressure against an iron pressure roller. A blanket and backing cloth rotate over
the pressure roller under the fabric and provide a flexible support for the fabric being printed.

13. A colour doctor blade removes paste or fibres adhering to the roller after contact with the
fabric. After the impression stage the fabric passes to the drying and steaming stages.
Roller Printing
Screen Printing:
This type of printing has increased enormously in its use in recent years because of its
versatility and the development of rotary screen printing machines which are capable of very
high rates of production. An additional significant advantage is that heavy depths of shade
can be produced by screen printing, a feature which has always been a limitation of roller
printing because of the restriction to the amount of print paste which can be held in the
shallow depth of the engraving on the print roller. Worldwide, some 61% of all printed textile
fabric is produced by the rotary screen method and 23% by flat screen printing.
There are two basic types of screen printing process, the flat screen and the rotary screen
methods.
Heat Transfer Printing:
Transfer printing techniques involve the transfer of a design from one medium to another.
The most common form used is heat transfer printing in which the design is printed initially
on to a special paper, using conventional printing machinery. The paper is then placed in
close contact with the fabric and heated, when the dyes sublime and transfer to the fabric
through the vapor phase.
Ink-Jet Printing :
There has been considerable interest in the technology surrounding non-impact printing,
mainly for the graphic market, but the potential benefits of reductions in the time scale from
original design to final production has led to much activity in developing this technology for
textile and carpet printing processes. The types of machines developed fall into two classes,
drop-on-demand (DOD) and continuous stream (CS).
Carpet Printing :
The printing of carpets only really achieved importance after the introduction of tufted
carpets in the late 1950s. Until then the market was dominated by the woven Wilton carpets
and Axminster designs were well established, but by the 1980s tufted carpet production
accounted for some 80% (by area) of UK production. Much of this carpet production was
File
N
otC
opy
14. printed because the range of patterns possible to produce using tufting machines was limited
and there was a desire to produce a greater flexibility of design for these types of carpet.
Warp Printing:
The printing of a design on the sheet of warp yarns before weaving. The filling is either white
or a neutral color, and a grayed effect is produced in the areas of the design.
Resist Printing:
A printing method in which the design can be produced: (1) by applying a resist agent in the
desireddesign, then dyeing the fabric, in which case, the design remains whitealthough the
rest of the fabric is dyed; or (2) by including a resist agent and a dye in the pastewhich is
applied for the design, in which case, the color of the design is not affected bysubsequent
dyeing of the fabric background.

15. Photographic Printing:
A method of printing from photoengraved rollers. The resultant design looks like a
photograph. The designs may also be photographed on a silk screen which is used in screen
printing.
Pigment Printing:
Printing by the use of pigments instead of dyes. The pigments do notpenetrate the fiber but
are affixed to the surface of the fabric by means of synthetic resins whichare cured after
application to make them insoluble. The pigments are insoluble, and application isin the form
of water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsions of pigment pastes and resins. The colors produced
are bright and generally fat except to crocking.
Blotch Printing:
A process wherein the background color of a design is printed rather than dyed.
Burn-Out Printing:
A method of printing to obtain a raised design on a sheer ground. The design is applied with
a special chemical onto a fabric woven of pairs of threads of different fibers. One of the
fibers is then destroyed locally by chemical action. Burn-out printing is often used on velvet.
The product of this operation is known as a burnt-out print.
Direct Printing:
A process wherein the colors for the desired designs are applied directly to the white or dyed
cloth, as distinguished from discharge printing and resist printing.
Discharge Printing:
In “white” discharge printing, the fabric is piece dyed, then printed with a paste containing a
chemical that reduces the dye and hence removes the color where the white designs are
desired. In “colored” discharge printing, a color is added to the discharge paste in order to
replace the discharged color with another shade.

• Colorfastness: related to chemistry of fibers, dyes, and pigments; penetration, and
fixation
– Bleeding: loss of color in water or other solutions; may color other fabrics
present
– Crocking: color transfer to another fabric from rubbing together
– Migration: color movement to adjacent areas or fabrics
– Fading: color loss due to perspiration, gas fumes, sunlight, etc.; dyes
degraded
• Tendering: Fabric strength loss due to reaction of dye and fiber; caused by heat, light,
atmospheric contamination, etc.
• Frosting: Colored portion of fabric lost by abrasion due to poor dye penetration.
Out-of-register: Print color overlaps or misses desired areas
