Examine the thoughts of Maharshi Arvind :
(I) The persistence of village communities was a major reason for the failure of the development of a powerful Nation-State in India.
(II) The villages should be reorganized in such a way that they feel, they are merely incomplete parts of a national unit.
Which of the above ideas is/are correct ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Both statements (I) and (II) are correct. In his essay "The Village and the Nation" (published in Bande Mataram on 8 March 1908), Sri Aurobindo (Maharshi Arvind) argued that while India's self-sufficient village system preserved social survival, its isolation prevented the growth of national unity, and that villages needed to be reorganized as conscious, interdependent parts of a single national organism.
