Ans2:
1) Drainage system in which all the houses are connected to street drains. These drains lead to an outer drain and provision for loose bricks for cleaning. Mohenjodaro is a best example. = drainage system
2) The roads are built in an interlocking grid pattern. = road density. Sadak Yojana for connecting the remote areas.
3) Every houses were built with bathrooms. = the Swachh Bharat to avoid open defecation.
4) Formation of trade centres or places exclusively for crafts production such as Chanhudaro, Nageshwar. = formation of manufacturing cities, SEZ.
5) Since the some settlements were in arid region, irrigation was necessary. It is evident from Dholavira, Shortugai. = Irrigation system.
6) Citadel = public places such as parks, religious centres. Great bath is assumed for some special rituals. It can be seen even today that before any religious events people used to take a dip in holy lakes or rivers.
7) The worship of mother goddess and proto shiva or lingas. = Hindu gods.
Ans3:
Present day urbanization and culture has many features which has its root in Indus valley civilization.following are the feature which substantiate the present day urbanization and culture owes its origin to IVC.
1. TOWN PLANNING- IVC was known for its town planning.Grid system was there in which roads cut each other at right angle.Burnt bricks were used for construction of citadel and other structure.The most outstanding feature was GREAT BATH at mohenjodaro.
presnt day urbanisation has GRID pattern of roads,Burnt bricks are being used to this days for constuction. Great bath was a public bath mainly used for sacrificial purpose,today its reflection can be seen in HOLY ganga used for rituals and for removing all sins.
2.AGRICULTURE- Agriculture was prevalent and many crops were grown. Evidence of Maize,barley,millet etc had been found.
today, these crops are widely cultivated.
3.RELIGION- Mother goddess and Pahupati mahadev was worshipped by Harrapans. moreover, trees,animals were also worshipped. Seal of bull has been found.
even today, trees(pipal,neem.tulsi) and animals are worshipped. Shiva and Shakti are being worshipped in HINDUISIM,
4.SWASTIKA- Today, swastika is been used for holy purposed. It traced its origin form IVC.
5.Trade- land and sea trade was prominent during those times, so is it today.
6.arts- harrapans were the first to paint the pottery and it got evolved over the time. so Painting can be attributed to harrapans.
7.USE OF GRANARIES- granaries was prevalent during IVC. it wass used as stock,for export,taxes etc.
Today government used it in modifief form to feed the deficit area through programmes(PDS) run by them.
So, today whatever the level of culture and urbanization be,it has evolved over time,but it lays its origin to first urbanization of Indian subcontinent-IVC.
