Bangladesh’s foreign policy
Bangladesh's foreign policy aims to preserve its sovereignty and economic advancement while maintaining friendly relations with all countries. It faces challenges from territorial disputes with neighbors like India and Myanmar over borders and maritime boundaries. However, Bangladesh has worked through international arbitration to peacefully resolve disputes. It plays an important role in regional economic cooperation initiatives like BIMSTEC and BCIM due to its strategic location connecting South and Southeast Asia. While Bangladesh faces economic and security threats in the region, strengthened regional connectivity and cooperation could help address issues like extremism and climate change.
Economic of afghanistan
The Afghan economy has improved since 2002 due to international assistance and investments, as well as remittances. However, it remains one of the least developed countries globally. Agriculture is the main industry, accounting for 20% of GDP, with opium production being a major crop. The country has significant untapped mineral resources worth trillions of dollars, including copper, iron ore, lithium, and rare earth metals. However, development has been hampered by decades of conflict and lack of infrastructure.
1952 Language Movement
The document summarizes the Bengali Language Movement in Pakistan between 1947-1956. It describes how Muhammad Ali Jinnah declared Urdu as the sole official language of Pakistan against opposition.

Bhagat Singh (born September 28, 1907, Lyallpur, western Punjab, India (now in Pakistan)—
Revolutionary hero of the Indian independence movement.
He attended Dayanand Anglo Vedic High School and National College, both located in Lahore.
He worked as a writer and editor in Amritsar for Punjabi and Urdu-language newspapers espousing Marxist theories.
He is credited with popularizing the catchphrase “Inquilab zindabad”.His grandfather, Sardar Arjun Singh, a scholar in sanskrit, Persian and Urdu, actively participated in the social work and religious reform movements . Though from the family of Jat Sikhs, he adopted the ideals of the Arya Samaj
In 1906, his three sons founded the Bharat Mata Society'
When Bhagat Singh was born , his father Sardar Kishan Singh was undergoing imprisonment in the Lahore Central Jali because of his active participation in the agitation against Colonisation Act.
His father and uncles were all released from the prison after his birth . It was because of this happy and welcome coincidence that he was named as Bhagarn Wala( lucky child) by his grand-mother
one of his uncle , Sardar Ajit Singh was going through torture in the Jail, 2; Bhagat Singh's spontaneous nationalistic feelings were intensified by the suffering of his aunt Harnam Kaur who used to weep most of the time because of the absence of her husband. In 1928 Bhagat Singh plotted with others to kill the police chief responsible for the death of Lala Lajpat Rai, during a silent march opposing the Simon Commission. Instead, in a case of mistaken identity, junior officer J.P. Saunders was killed, and Bhagat Singh had to flee Lahore to escape the death penalty.

"Anti-Colonial struggle in Ngugiw thiongos's Grain of Wheat"
This document summarizes Ngugi wa Thiong'o's novel "A Grain of Wheat". The novel focuses on the Mau Mau uprising in Kenya in the 1950s as an anti-colonial struggle. It depicts the physical, psychological, and political impact of the revolt on a small village. The narrative explores the meaning of "Uhuru" or freedom for both the new Kenyan bourgeoisie and the Gikuyu peasants. It also compares the novel to Raja Rao's "Kanthapura" in depicting post-colonial struggles against British rule through Gandhian movements in India.
The literary criticism-feminism
Feminist literary criticism analyzes how women are represented in texts and seeks to address the marginalization of women in literature. It aims to consider women as subjects rather than objects, and examines how literature reinforces women's oppression. Key goals include developing a female literary tradition, interpreting women's writings from a female perspective, and increasing awareness of gender politics in language. Feminist criticism has evolved in three waves aligned with broader feminist movements focused on women's rights, equality, and addressing the limitations of prior approaches.
Subalternity and subjugation in the postcolonial literature by Javed Mohsin ...
This document provides a summary and analysis of the novel "All My Rage" from a postcolonial feminist perspective. It discusses how the novel portrays women as subaltern objects who face marginalization, suppression, and double colonization. The main female protagonist, Noor, is an orphan dependent on her abusive uncle who prevents her from pursuing higher education and subjects her to physical violence. However, Noor continues struggling to chase her dreams despite facing oppression as a Pakistani woman in American society. The analysis uses Gayatri Spivak's theory of "Can the Subalterns Speak" to examine how women in the novel have no voice or agency due to patriarchal structures that relegate them to subaltern status.

Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan and Martin Luther King Jr. were prominent 20th century leaders who advocated for non-violence. Khan founded movements in India to educate and empower Muslims to resist British rule through non-cooperation and civil disobedience. He spent time in prison for his activism. King led the American civil rights movement and organized massive protests, giving his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech.

They fought for freedom and equality through non-violent resistance.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
