Tradition means those ways of thinking and feeling which have come down to us from the past. We still have

down their arms. They did not surrender to force but to goodness. This took place in the year 1972, but it could easily be
a legend of ancient times. Many people say such a thing could not have happened anywhere else in the world today.
Happiness of this kind tells us that ours is a living and growing tradition. It is still taking in new influences and merging
them with the old. If this stops, Indian tradition itself will die.

agrarian class. This shortage will be removed by surplus man-power released from agriculture as suggested above.

The passage best supports the statement that:

A employment in production is more fruitful than employment in agriculture.
