PASSAGE-1National integration is a problem that has

been considered to be of vital importance overthe world. This is of special significance to ourcountry. Leaders like Abraham Lincoln andPresident Kennedy fell victims to bullets ofassassins in their efforts to bring about greaterunity among the people and greater integrationof the various parts of the country.

Many social reformers believed thatintegration of a country could survive on thefoundation of faith, brother-hood and cooperation.The conditions in India were diversified withfactors like caste system, colour etc. It was notan easy task to bring about the brotherhoodfeeling among our people in India. Hindu rulers,though professing the same faith, were dividedamong themselves. The division was perpetuatedlater by Muslim rulers. But during the Britishrule the policy of divide and rule became a causeof conflict.

The dynamism of Sardar Patel ledindependent states to become an integral part ofthe Indian Union. This was the first step towardsnational integration. Today national integrationremains a distant goal. Love for power, craze forriches, religious and linguistic fantasia makesintegration impossible. Under thesecircumstances a need for national integrationis greatly felt. Young minds should be taught thevalue of national integration and its advantages.

(B) In terms of national integration, Hindurulers were not united

(C) Britishers tried their best for nationalintegration in India

(D) Muslim rulers supported the idea ofnational integration

PASSAGE-2Essentially, religion is code of conduct for

people of different communities—geographical orcultural—to follow. Religion is a dead document.It is an imposed human burden on man after hisbirth. Besides, every religion generates hatredin a bid to gather more people in its flock, leadingto bloodshed.

Whenever and wherever religion grows, itspreads intolerance amongst people of differentreligious denominations. Religion actuallyremoves God from the purview of man, assuringhim of heaven by his own good words. Thus Godis made superfluous. What a falsehood! Perhapsit is this unconscious lack of fear of a living Godthat results in every evil. It is time for all of us torealize that what men need today is a God, andnot religion. From the time of his birth, man’sconscience is coded with the knowledge of God.the fact that there is only one God who has eyes

to behold, ears to hear and a heart to love and tosave. God is indeed invincible and cannot bedefeated by any power.

At this hour, when we must unite to combatpain and suffering, I request you to turn to thisGod of love, forgiveness and justice. He is yourneed and not religion. Over the ages, millions,irrespective of caste, creed, colour and religion,have cried out to God and have been saved. Maythe Lord grant all humanity the humility to doso, for sooner or later every one has to meet hisor her maker.196. What message does the author convey to
