The backbone of our country is in utter distress!! It is our duty to stand by them in this period and support them to the fullest. Coronavirus has had a huge impact on the business sector as well as the daily wagers. Many industries are incurring losses during this pandemic as factories are not operational during the lockdown. In absence of any other alternative, many factory workers have been sent home without pay or daily wages. Migrants who earn their living on daily wages are going through a lot of hardship. They are unable to afford even one square meal a day. Their children are not getting enough nutrition. There has been endless suffering in their lives during this disastrous time. They are forced to sleep on railway platforms due to their unfortunate condition. There have been many instances where migrants have been run over by trucks and buses; leaving their families in despair and anguish. Some migrants and their children are dying due to starvation and lack of susten

Exercising regularly not only keeps our body fit, but also our mind refreshed. Maintaining physical fitness should be the first priority for everyone.

Yoga has gained lot of popularity worldwide. The International Yoga Day is celebrated on 21 st March. It marks the significance of practicing Yoga and its benefits on our physical and mental well-being. Many ‘asanas’ are practiced while performing Yoga. Each one of them has its own advantage.

Nature is the art of God which leaves us spellbound and enthralled by its beauty. Nature is the best gift mankind has ever received. The sun peeking through sturdy mountains can mesmerize anyone. The cosy shade of trees and the pleasing scent of flowers fill our hearts with happiness. The trickling of drops of rain and a huge waterfall rushing nearby is enough to captivate someone. Nature has the power to calm down a mind filled with lots of thoughts. The positivity radiated by nature can easily replace our negative feelings. The soothing vibes exhibited by nature refreshes everybody’s mind. Nature has fulfilled all our necessities. But, what have we done in return? We are only exploiting nature and misusing this precious gift bestowed upon us. People have taken this gift for granted and are not aware of its value. We cannot imagine life without nature. History has witnessed many events to preserve nature. One of them is the Chipko movement lead by Sundarlal Bahuguna in Himac

Failure should never discourage you, but make you learn a lesson which lasts lifelong. Success and failure go hand in hand. We have always been told that success or failure does not decide the character of a person; it is the hardwork which they put in to achieve their target.  To achieve your ambition; the most important virtues are hardwork, perseverance, determination and calmness. The harder you work, more are the chances of succeeding. On account of my personal experience, my father has always told me; even if you fail after giving your best and working hard, then it is not a very big concern. Unless, you do not work to the fullest and fail, it is then a matter of issue. Hence, failure must never demotivate you until you work hard and trust yourself. Continuous success results in a rise of pride among many. People look down upon their colleagues and consider them as inferior. They develop a very high self-esteem of themselves and get conceited. They stop working hard,

Interaction with people not only helps to connect with them; but also helps to share our thoughts with them. Interacting with people around us has become a significant part of our life. It determines our self-confidence and develops our overall personality. We come to know how well can we connect with everyone’s feelings and make a positive impression on others. It also tests our way of expressing views and ideas via eye-contact and speaking confidently. The best part of school life is interacting with each other, sharing tiffin, teasing each other and working on projects together. Students can clarify their doubts regarding a particular subject easily, by approaching the teacher. In this way, the queries are cleared more efficiently. Due to the current lockdown, many things are changing. Online classes for students on virtual platforms have begun, wherein students will not get the exposure of interacting with each other. They will miss upon many fun activities and meeting with

Hardwork is the key that will open the lock to your goals. Our well-wishers always tell us to work hard. The only reason behind it is; once we have an aim in life that we want to achieve, nobody can stop us from reaching it. To achieve your ambition; the most important virtues are hardwork, perseverance, determination and calmness. The harder you work, more are the chances of succeeding. Some people are not fond of working hard and find shortcuts to reach till their goals. They may accomplish till a point of time, after which, only hardwork will pay off. The most impactful example of hardworking people in this world are our parents. They work hard day and night to earn a better living in this world. Their only aim is to satisfy the necessities of their family. God always blesses those who work hard and do not wait for the result of their hardwork. Our parents are among those people who work selflessly for the well-being of their family. Hence, all of us should make a firm res

Competition should not stress us out, but make us aware of our capabilities and scope of improvement. Healthy competition plays a very important role in everyone’s life. It helps people to come out from the self-bubble. People start realizing their abilities in a particular field and the amount of time they should devout for it. This also helps people to innovate and develop interest in various other areas. There are some people who think that they have achieved a lot in a short span of time. When they explore the world and find healthy competition, they tend to know that not all can be gained in one go. Having a Healthy competition makes us learn new concepts from different people. We can gain knowledge in a particular field once we find a good competition. Being competitive does not only mean to perform better than others, but also learn from others to improve. Sometimes, due to sheer pressure to compete with someone, we end up getting busted! Taking up competition under st

Why do we always pay attention to the advice of our elders? How many times have we heard our parents telling us ways to perform a task or do an activity? The sole reason behind it is their practical experience and their wish to make us learn from them. Which is why, hearing different stories and actually being in those circumstances pays to be an experience that makes us learn great things in a small time. In this due course of time, during the lockdown, all of us have had various experiences; some that have proved to be of great value and some that did not go well. All of us are trying to keep our house tidy using variety of mops which may or may not be useful but will surely be an experience. We are cooking different dishes at home which may prove to be an extremely wonderful experience or an awfully bad one! Students are downloading e-books for their classroom course which is again, an experience of studying virtually. All of us are finding ways to keep ourselves occupied by e
