One can feel comfortable with the English language while travelling to other countries because it can be understood by the people. It is also a common medium of instruction in various schools not only in India but many other country of the world also.

Even post independence the importance of the English language has not dwindled. The language is most suitable for administrative, legal and medical work.

[Essay] If i were a scientist

By
India has given to the world a great many scientists like Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose , Sir Vishweshwaraiya , SrinivasRamanujan , Sir C. V. Raman, Dr. Homi Bhabha, Dr. Vikram Sarabhai and Dr. Abdul Kalam. I admire them all. So many a times I keep wondering what “If I were a scientist” let me think. What can I do for the best of my Country, my people and all of the above for all the living beings residing on earth. How can I be useful to humanity? How can I be useful for the conservation and preservation of earth? To what extent I would be at service to mother earth?

[Essay] The pleasures and pains of youth

By
The period of teenage is a short but a beautiful one. We begin our teens when we are “thirteen” and we end it with “nineteen”. It is also called a period of adolescence – when you are neither a child nor an adult. It is a time for privacy but on the other hand there is a lot of peer pressure. You start growing up and understanding your physical qualities and understanding the importance of looking good. You look out for a role model – a wrong model can put your life in jeopardy. The right role model can uplift your life. You want to act grown up but you lack the confidence, so many times you act in an immature manner creating problems for our own selves.
