INDIAN CULTURE

PAPER-II

Note: This paper contains fifty (50) objective type questions, each question carrying two (2) marks_ Attempt all of them.

Read the passage below, and answer the questions that follow, based on your

understanding of the passage :

Though India had no formal political philosophy, the science of statecraft was much cultivated,

and a number of importanttextbooks on this topic have survived. D3J}i)amri, the administration of

force, or rajamri, the conduct of kings, was a severely practical science, and the texts cursorily

dismiss the more philosophical aspect of politics, but give comparatively detailed advice on the

organization of the state and the conduct of governmental affairs. The later Vedic literature tells us

something, incidentally, about political life and thought in the pre-Buddhistperiod, and we can gather

much from the Paliscriptures ofBuddhism : but the earliest and most important textbook specifically

devoted to statecraft is the Kau.riJya Arrha§asrra, which is attributed to Kau!ilya, the famous

minister of Candragupta Maurya (p.50). Some authorities still maintain the full authenticity of the

wOik, but there are grave objections to this view. The text refers to people and places (notably Olin a)

which do not seem to have been known to the Indians in the 4thcenrury B.C. It does not use much

of the official terminology employed in the Mokan inscriptions or in the Pali scriptures, but it

contains many governmental terms which apparently did not become popular until post -Mauryan

times. Yet it is certainly pre-Guptan, an dis, we believe, the elaboration of a Mauryan original which

was perllaps the work of Kau!ilya himself. Whatever its age, the Arrha§asrm gives very detailed

instructions on the control of the state, the organization of the national economy, and the conduct of

war, and it is a most precious source-book for many aspects ancient Indian life.

1. According to the passage which of the following is bue ?

(A) The Arthasastra belongs to the Gupta period

(B) It refers to Asoksn inscriptions

(C) The text refers to Cl-tins and Chinf<se people

(D) It does not contain administrative tenns
