4 (a) Read the following passage carefully and make notes.
?I entertain great regard for your fine abilities and love of the country and that shall be unabated whether
I have the good fortune to secure your co-operation or face your honest opposition.? These words are
incorporated in a letter addressed to Mokshagundam Visveswarayya by Mahatma Gandhi. Gandhi and
Visvesvarayya played a vital role in their unique ways in shaping the destiny of India. But the means and
methods they followed, however, were not always similar; they appeared to be diametrically opposed in
certain respects. While Gandhi personified himself as ?Daridranarayana?, the god of the poor and was
dressed as a faquir, Visvesvarayya was always immaculately dressed. And unlike Gandhi, Visvesvarayya
was in favour of large-scale industrialization. Visvevarayya came to prominence as the architect of big dams
and successfully undertook a number of reforms as the Dewan of Mysore; Gandhi attained universal fame
by showing the world that one can achieve his goals by following the path of truth and non-violence.
(b) Write a paragraph on the role of English language in the present scenario.
OR
5 Briefly explain Jagadish Chandra Bose?s contribution to research.
