, BUSINESS, TRADE AND COMMERCE 3
Imran, Manpreet, Joseph and Priyanka have been classmates in Class X. After
their exams are over, they happen to meet at a common friend Ruchita’s house.
Just when they were sharing their experiences of examination days, Ruchika’s
father Raghuraj Chaudhary intervenes and asks about their well-being. He also
enquires about their career plans. But none of them had a definite reply. Raghuraj
who himself is a successful businessman tells them about business as a career
opportunity. Joseph gets excited by the idea and says “yes, business is really good
for making lots of money”. Raghuraj tells them that ‘there is a lot more to business
than merely money’. Business activities lead to growth and development of any
country, he added. He further tells them that the roots of business activities can be
traced back to ancient times and how trading helps in the prosperity of the Indian
subcontinent. Priyanka said that they have read about the Silk Route in their history
textbooks. Raghuraj then gets busy with his day-to-day tasks. However, the four
classmates begin raising questions. The conversation of the four classmates focused
on how trading activities were conducted during ancient times. How far can the
roots of trading activities be traced? Why was the Indian subcontinent referred to
as ‘Swaran Bharat and Swaran Dweep’ by the then travellers to India? What made
Columbus and Vasco da Gama undertake journeys to locate India? They decided
to meet the commerce teacher of their school to find out answers to many such
questions about the development, nature and purpose of business.
