Keywords:
Revolution, Religious Thought, Social Change, ReligionAbstract
The challenges of social change are faced by every developing nation. Development implies growth and growth promotes change in a progressive direction. The agents and participants of change are the people themselves. They live and work in a socio-religious context which provides them with systems of belief. One of the most important factors which determine a man's course of action is his system of belief. No social change can take place without touching a man's belief-system." The old socio-religious restrictions on it will have to loosen their grip for ushering in new values of change.
