                                • About 416 km of its course falls in Tamil Nadu. It serves as the boundary between Karnataka
                                  \nand Tamil Nadu for a distance of 64 km. A tributary called Bhavani joins Cauvery on the right bank about 45 km from the Mettur Reservoir.<\/li>\n
                                • Thereafter, it takes easterly course to enter into the plains of Tamil Nadu. Cauvery and its distributaries in its lower course drain the districts of Nagapattinam, Thanjavur, Thivarur and Thiruchirapalli.<\/li>\n
                                • The Cauvery, Kollidam and the vellar jointly drain central part of the Tamil Nadu. The head of the Cauvery delta is near the islands of Srirangam.

                                  \n(i) Our Constitution guarantees six Fundamental Rights to its citizens. It safeguards all these rights by granting us the Right to Constitutional Remedies. It is possible that the Government or private bodies may violate one of our Fundamental Rights.<\/p>\n

                                  (ii) Right to Constitutional Remedies protects us from such violations. It allows us to file a case against the Government or private bodies in the High Courts of the States and the Supreme Court of the India.<\/p>\n

                                    \nAnswer:
                                    \nMultinational companies first started their activities in the extractive industries and controlled raw materials in the host countries during 1920s and then entered the manufacturing and service sectors after 1950s. Most of the MNCs at present belong to the four major exporting countries i.e., USA, UK, France and Germany. However, the largest is America. In 1971, the American Corporations held 52% of the total world stock of foreign direct inverstment.
                                    \nGreat Britain held 14.5% followed by France 5% and Federal Republic of Germany 4.4% and Japan 2.7%.<\/p>\n

                                    Advantages of MNCs:<\/p>\n

                                      \n
                                    • MNCs produce the same quality of goods at lower cost and without transaction cost.<\/li>\n
                                    • They reduce prices and increase the purchasing power of consumers world wide.<\/li>\n
                                    • They are able to take advantage of tax variation.<\/li>\n
                                    • They spur job growth in the local economy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                      Disdvantages of MNCs:<\/p>\n

                                      (i) They have led to the downfall of smaller, local business.<\/p>\n

                                      (ii) With more companies transferring offices and centering operations in other countries, jobs for the people living in developed countries are threatened.<\/p>\n

                                      (iii) MNCs often invest in developing countries where they can take advantage of cheaper labour. Some MNCs prefer to put up branches in these parts of the world where there are no stringent policies in labour and where people need jobs because these MNCs can demand for cheaper labour and lesser healthcare benefits.<\/p>\n
