✓

Answer

The working condition for the indentured migrant overseas were:
On arrival at the plantations, the indentured labour found extremely horrible and miserable living and working condition. Working hours were very long and labourers had few legal rights
The different cultural form blended into new forms:
  1. The annual Muharram procession was converted into a riotous carnival called ‘Hosay’ in which workers of all races and religious joined in Trinidad.
  2. The protest religion of Rastafarianism made famous by the Jamaican reggae star Bob Marley is also said to reflect social and cultural with Indian migrants to the Caribbean.
  3. ‘Chutney music’, popular in Trinidad and Guyana, is another creative contemporary expression of the post-indenture experience.
  4. These forms of cultural are part of the making of the global world, where things form different places get mixed, lose their original identity and become entirely new.

Mewat is one of the most backward areas in Haryana. It used to be a part of district Gurgaon and Faridabad. The people of Mewat felt that the area will get better attention if it were to become a separate district. But political parties were indifferent to this sentiment. The demand for a separate district was raised by Mewat Educational and Social Organisation and Mewat Saksharta Samiti in 1996. Later Mewat Vikas Sabha was founded in 2000 and carried out a series of public awareness campaigns. This forced both the major parties, Congress and the Indian National Lok Dal, to announe their support for the new district before the assembly elections held in February 2005. The new district came into existence in July 2005.
