Biographical
Sketch of Nelson Mandela
Nelson
Rolihlahla Mandela was born on 18 July 1918 at Mvezo in South Africa. He was a prominent
South African politician and an activist. His children are Zindziswa Mandela,
Zenani Mandela and more. He studied Law at the University College of Fort Hare
and the University of Witwatersrand. He is known as the ‘Father of South Africa’.
Mandela
dedicated his life to fighting against the apartheid system, a racist policy
that discriminated against non-white citizens. Mandela's activism led to his imprisonment for 27 years on
Robben Island. Despite the long and harsh imprisonment, he continued to
fight for justice and equality. His efforts were recognized globally, and after
his release, he became the first black President of South Africa, leading the country towards reconciliation
and unity.
Throughout
his life, Mandela received more than 260 awards, reflecting his global
impact and the respect he earned. Among these was the Bharata Ratna in
1990, which was given by the Indian government. He also received The Nobel
Peace Prize in 1993 and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2002.
He passed away on 5th
December 2013, leaving behind a legacy of courage and dedication to human
rights.

Q.no.35(b) answers
Introduction
The given diagram is a bar graph. Bar
graphs are important because they can visually present data to compare
different values. This bar graph illustrates (/describes) the district-wise
Percentage of Votes polled during the 2024 elections in Andhra Pradesh. The data highlights votes polled in ten different
districts.
Description
Chittoor district recorded the highest voter turnout
with 82.65%, indicating strong voter engagement. West Godavari and Krishna
districts also demonstrated high levels of voter participation, with
percentages of 82.2% and 81.12%, respectively. Several districts showed
moderate levels of voter participation, including Vizianagaram (79.41%),
Srikakulam (75.41%), Guntur (75.74%), and Kurnool (75%). On the other end of
the spectrum, Alluri Sitaramaraju had the lowest voter turnout at 63.19%,
followed by Visakhapatnam with 65.5%.
Analysis
The graph shows a clear variation in voter turnout
across different districts. Chittoor, West Godavari, and Krishna, with their
high turnout rates, indicate effective voter mobilization and possibly a
higher degree of political engagement or satisfaction among the electorate.
In contrast, the low turnout in Alluri Sitaramaraju and Visakhapatnam is found.
This suggests potential issues such as voter laziness, dissatisfaction, or
logistical challenges. The moderate turnout is seen in districts like
Vizianagaram, Srikakulam, Guntur, and Kurnool. This suggests these areas
have average engagement, which could be influenced by a combination of factors
present in both high and low-turnout districts.
Conclusion
The bar graph indicates a varied pattern of voter
engagement across Andhra Pradesh during the 2024 elections. Chittoor, West
Godavari, and Krishna districts led in voter turnout, while Alluri Sitaramaraju
and Visakhapatnam lagged behind. Other districts like Vizianagaram, Srikakulam,
Guntur, and Kurnool had moderate voter participation. Overall, the
percentage of voter turnout is satisfactory.
