The description of\r\nHiuenTsang, a Chinese historian, leaves no doubt that the social and economic\r\nrestrictions inherent in the caste differentiations of Hindu society had\r\nhowever, gradually sapped the inner vitality of the social system and Sindh\r\nfell without much resistance before the Muslim armies.

97. (1) The\r\nruins of Harrappa were first described in 1842 by Charles Masson in his\r\nNarrative of Various Journeys in Balochistan, Afghanistan, and the Punjab,\r\nwhere locals talked of an ancient city extending “thirteen cosses” (about 25\r\nmiles), but no archaeological interest would attach to this for nearly a\r\ncentury. In 1856, General Alexander Cunningham, later director general of the\r\narcheoiogical survey of northern India, visited Harappa where the British\r\nengineers John and William Brunton were laying the East Indian Railway Company\r\nline connecting the cities of Karachi and Lahore.

The first stamps\r\nvalid for postage throughout India were placed on sale in October, 1854 with\r\nfour values: 1 /2 anna, 1 anna, 2 annas, and 4 annas. These stamps were issued\r\nfollowing a Commission of Inquiry which had carefully studied the postal\r\nsystems of Europe and America. The new system was recommended by the\r\nGovernor-General, Lord\r\nDalhousie and adopted by the East India Company’s Court of Directors. It\r\nintroduced “low and uniform” rates for sending mail efficiently through out the\r\ncountry within the jurisdiction of the East India Company.
99. (2) The history of Indian telecom can be started\r\nwith the introduction of telegraph. The Indian postal and telecom sectors are\r\none of the world’s oldest. In 1850, the first experimental electric telegraph\r\nline was started between Kolkata and Diamond Harbour. In 1851, it was opened\r\nfor the use of the British East India Company. Subsequently, the construction\r\nof 4,000 miles (6,400 km) of telegraph lines connecting Kolkata (then Calcutta)\r\nand Peshawar in the north along with Agra, Mumbai (then Bombay) through Sindwa\r\nGhats, and Chennai (then Madras) in the south, as well as Ootacamund and\r\nBangalore was started in November 1853. William O’Shaughnessy, who pioneered\r\nthe telegraph and telephone in India, belonged to the Public Works Department,\r\nand worked towards the development of telecom throughout this period. A\r\nseparate department was opened in 1854 when telegraph facilities were opened to\r\nthe public.

It\r\nis designed to recall Mount Kailash, the abode of Lord Shiva. It is a megalith\r\ncarved out of one single rock. It was built in the 8th century by the\r\nRashtrakuta king Krishna I.
