Everything we do is somehow connected with technology. Modern technology is machinery that makes life easier. How the new technology shapes our world our ancestors, who lived thousands of years ago, created the bridge that led to today’s modern technology. Development of the new technology has a large impact on three major fields, and can be categorized as information technology, transportation and utilities. We should not let technology control us, but to be the master of it, and remember that technology can exist only under human control. For example, microwave ovens cook food easily without using stoves and making a big mess. Today modern technology also has created problems because they are dangerous. Although technology has advanced the access of information and communication, our society has grown more impersonal by communicating using technologies; therefore our culture is losing the ability to socialize face to face. Technology has changed the way we connect to the world. Another large issue we face with the advances in technology is cyber-bullying. Our society has grown to be more comfortable with the technology rather than the people in front of them. The businessman who has wide business in the world can successful run their business through internet. The modern technology also helps to spread the culture of one country around the world, which makes it a global village.

ROLE OF GANDHIJI IN NON COOPERATIVE MOVEMENT IN INDIA

Abstract

Gandhi’s message was simple: it was not British guns but imperfections of Indians themselves that kept their country in bondage. His program, the nonviolent noncooperation movement against the British government, included boycotts not only of British manufactures but of institutions operated or aided by the British in India: legislatures, courts, offices, schools. The campaign electrified the country, broke the spell of fear of foreign rule, and led to the arrests of thousands of satyagrahis, who defied laws and cheerfully lined up for prison. Non cooperative movement signified a new chapter in the history of Indian freedom struggle.
