On a relaxed summer afternoon, as people were bidding good bye to each other hoping for a restful weekend ahead, there has a quite a buzz in one small part of MSRIT. Some colourful posters on the walls stood out welcoming the viewers to the fifth anniversary celebration of Sankalp. The critiques who blame the upcoming generations for lack of consideration towards the cause of the society and the motherland should have been there. The ones who are cribbing all the time about any and everything under the sun should have been there. They should have been there to watch an elegant seminar hall, with about a hundred young men and women discussing and getting to know more about working their way towards a land of their dreams.
Young men and women who have worked round the year in various different spheres of activity took their turns to walk up to the stage and acquaint the audience with what they have been doing in the last year and what are their plans for the future. Their voice was a bit nervous - for they are not the ones who are so used to walking up on stage.. But in what they spoke, one could clearly hear the voice of a person who is one with the cause. In the small talks that they gave, they spoke about the challenge that they and their team-mates have taken on themselves to make sure that the world becomes a better place.
The presence of the believers who have faith in Sankalp and what it stands for was really encouraging for the volunteers. They are the ones whose eyes promise to stand by the side of the volunteers as their struggle their way through the toughest of times. The way their eyes light up when they hear of hope and promise made the occasion a truly enthralling one.
The most beautiful part of the programme was the time when the young volunteers of Sankalp spoke about their transition to being a Volunteer for the organization. They shared with the audience the moments that brought in magic into their lives and changes the course of things for the time to come. Each one of them made a choice to walk the road that is full of thorns.. each one of them made a choice to take the hard way ahead.
The anniversary programme was also a time to look back at those who have silently contributed to the growth of this organization. From the days when it was a dream that everyone seemed to question, till the time that it stands as a hope for the suffering and the helpless, the journey has not been easy. The only relief has come from those numerous hearts who believed in the cause and contributed to it.
Fifth year of Sankalp, comes with greater responsibilities, more opportunities and a greater challenge to overcome. Gods willing, we will continue to grow and contribute to the cause that we have taken up. The cause of life - a promise - to give life a better chance.

The early history of British expansion in India was characterised by the co-existence of two approaches towards the existing princely states. The first was a policy of annexation, where the British sought to forcibly absorb the Indian princely states into the provinces which constituted their Empire in India. The second was a policy of indirect rule, where the British assumed suzerainty and paramountcy over princely states, but conceded some degree of sovereignty to them. ..
India, a nation that has undergone complete transformation after it got independence from the British Rule. But somehow the influence from the West never ceased to affect our culture and the growth of the Nation. The three major transforms taken from the entire lot is the way Mobiles, Cars and Malls have brought to the India nationality.

Immediately after India gained independence, the Milk Control Board was set up which controlled the supply and distribution chains.
India and space laws: A millennium perspective
India is a country with a diversity of languages. Out of more than one thousand mother tongues, only eighteen languages are included in the eighth schedule of the Indian Constitution. Development of a particular state or region, to a very great extent, depends on the development of its regional language. This was an important reason given at the time of the formation of linguistic states, though many criticized such a linguistic “division” or “re-organization”.

The Ancient Legend
The All India Muslim League (AIML) was formed in Dhaka in 1906 by Muslims who were suspicious of the Hindu-majority Indian National Congress. They complained that Muslim members did not have the same rights as Hindu members. A number of different scenarios were proposed at various times. Among the first to make the demand for a separate state was the writer/philosopher Allama Iqbal, who, in his presidential address to the 1930 convention of the Muslim League said that a separate nation for Muslims was essential in an otherwise Hindu-dominated subcontinent.
