		The difficulty which besets all attempts to classify colour is enhanced in India by the fact that for the bulk of the population the range of variation, especially in the case of the eyes and hair, is exceedingly small.
		From one end of India to the other the hair of the great mass of the population is fl or dark brown, while among the higher castes the latter colour is occasionally shot through by something approaching a tawny shade.
		The first occupants of India were probably Negritos, and elements of their belief, perhaps including the reverence for the pipal tree and possibly a primitive phallic fertility cult, may have been perpetuated by the proto-australoids who were the next comers and probably contributed the totemic theory or at least the basis thereof.

	Baha’i Proselytization in Malwa, India
		After two years of sustained teaching the Irani family was able to enroll two new Baha'is, and thus by the time that India gained its nationhood the Baha'i community in Malwa was composed of a local spiritual assembly in Ujjain, a group in Indore and a small number of villagers in Harsodan.
		Most early Baha'i pioneers and teachers in India came from Persian or Zoroastrian backgrounds, and while those westerners who were sent by Abdu'l-Baha and Shoghi Effendi carried with them remnants of their Judeo-Christian heritage, they were all deepened Baha'is who had assimilated a fair degree of Islamo/Baha'i theological terms and concepts.
		India has from ancient times held strongly a belief in the reality of the avatar, the descent into form, the revelation of the God-head in humanity...in India it has grown up and persisted as a logical outcome of the Vedantic view of life and taken firm root in the consciousness of the race.

		In India under Swaraj I have no doubt that foreign missionaries will be at liberty to do their proselytising, as I would say, in the wrong way; but they would be expected to bear with those who like me, may point out that in their opinion the way is wrong.

		The present CAA in India is a step towards bringing about changes in the existing framework of urban local bodies and is in conformity with the world process of democratic decentralization.
		Expectations are high that it will refurbish the whole system of local self-government by implanting a new structure of municipal authorities with additional devolution of functions, planning responsibilities, new system of fiscal transfers and empowerment of women and weaker sections of the society.
