The whole aim of human existence is to create peace, tranquillity and happiness

 Q. All of us have the power to make small changes in our behaviour, surroundings and our relationships that can help us not only to lead a happy life but also spread cheer and goodwill around us. You are Niraj/Nirja. Draft a speech to be delivered in the Inter House Speech Competition, on the topic ‘The whole aim of human existence is to create peace, tranquillity and happiness’. (120 - 150 words) 

Esteemed judges, respected teachers, and my dear friends

Today, I stand before you to share a simple yet profound truth: the ultimate purpose of our existence is to cultivate peace, tranquillity, and happiness. It's not about grand gestures or extraordinary achievements; it's about the small acts of kindness that ripple through our lives and the world around us.

Each of us possesses the power to create a ripple effect of positivity. A smile shared, a helping hand extended, a kind word spoken – these seemingly insignificant actions can transform lives. When we choose compassion over conflict, understanding over judgment, and love over hate, we sow the seeds of peace and harmony.   

Let us strive to be beacons of light in the darkness, spreading warmth and joy wherever we go. By nurturing our own inner peace, we can inspire others to do the same. Let us embrace the power of empathy, the beauty of forgiveness, and the strength of unity.

Remember, true happiness is not found in material possessions or fleeting pleasures, but in the connections we forge with others and the positive impact we make on the world. Let us live our lives with purpose, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to creating a more peaceful and harmonious future for all.   

Thank you.

English Dominance: A Threat to India's Languages

 Q. The English language has acquired a privileged position in India. It has caused the neglect of other Indian languages, including Hindi. Is there a need to pause and reflect on the situation? Write an article in about 120-150 words. 

English Dominance: A Threat to India’s Languages
By:

English has become very important in India. It is used everywhere, from schools to workplaces. But this has led to a problem: other Indian languages, like Hindi or other regional languages, are being neglected.

When only English is given preference, people who don't know English are left behind. They find it difficult to get good jobs or study at good schools. This hurts their chances in life.

To solve this issue, we need to value all Indian languages. We should teach Hindi and other regional languages in schools and use them in government work. This will help everyone, especially those who come from rural backgrounds.

By promoting all languages, India can become a truly multilingual nation.

Additional points:
• As English becomes the preferred language for education, career advancement, and social mobility, regional languages are being gradually eroded. The consequences are far-reaching, resulting in a loss of cultural heritage and diversity.
• It is essential to recognize the value of native languages and take corrective measures to promote their use. We must encourage multilingualism and support initiatives that fosters the growth of Hindi and other Indian languages. By doing so, we can preserve our rich linguistic tapestry (connection) and ensure that our cultural identity is not subsumed (absorbed) by the dominance of English. Let us strive for more inclusive and diverse language landscape in India. 

Dominance: supreme influence, control
