Question

Can anyone write me an essay, on the topic 'Patriotism'

Answer 1

Patriotism is a very noble virtue. Patriotism means loves for one’s country. A person who loves his/her country more than anything else is called a patriot. Patriotism inspires a man to do everything just and fair for the well being and betterment of the country. It is the quality that impels a man to sacrifice his own interest, comfort, pleasure and even his life for the sake of his own country.

Obligations of patriotism: The word- patriotism invokes a host of qualities or virtues. It includes honesty, responsibility, commitment and dedication for the country and countrymen. Patriotic zeal makes a man dutiful, energetic and enthusiastic. A patriotic man abides by the laws of the country, pays taxes, works for the development of the country and things only of doing good of the country. Hen ever does anything that goes against the interest of the country. He never involves himself with criminal, antisocial and anti-state activities. He always upholds the dignity and status of the country. He respects the country and countrymen. A true patriot is ever vigilant to protect country’s freedom, sovereignty and integrity. And if need be a patriot sacrifices his life for the country. We have glorious example of patriotism- patriotic feelings and sacrifices. It was a deep patriotic feeling that inspired millions of our people to fight for the due status of their mother tongue in 1952 and again in 1971 it inspired them to sacrifice their lives to achieve freedom from foreign rule.

Difference between a patriot and an unpatriotic: Patriotism makes one a noble and respectable person. A patriot is loved by all. He may not have wealth or power, but he commands respect from everybody in the society. Poets sing for the patriots, countrymen salute them both when they live or die. Great patriots are remembered even after their death. A true patriot is an asset of the country. A true patriot never dies because he resides in the heart of the countrymen. On the other hand a unpatriotic man is a very ignoble person. Nobody honors him, nobody praises him and he dies unsung and unnoticed.

Answer 2

Patriot is one who loves and serves his own country as a loyal citizen. He is called a true patriot who loves his coun­try and is ready to sacrifice his all for her cause, and whole­heartedly works for the welfare of his motherland.

India is proud to have produced many patriots. These patriots have made great sacrifices for their motherland. Their names are written in golden letters in the history of India. Shivaji, Rana Pratap, Vir Kunwar Singh, Rani Lakshmi Bai, Maharaja Ranjit Singh, Sardar Patel, Subhash Chandra Bose, Lala Lajpat Rai, Bhagat Singh, Maulana Azad, Mahatma Gandhi, to name a few, who sacrificed their lives for their motherland. They lived and died for the country. They are examples for the generation to come.

The patriots play prominent role in the progress of a country. But the real test of patriotism is at the time of crisis. One who is a real patriot stands unfared in the face of all trial and tribulations. The intensity of concern and love for the motherland remain unchanged. Spurious patriot shirks when their services are required. We should be on guard against such traitors. They can never be trusted. They are the people who pass on the confidential information to their enemies to serve their petty ends. Jai Chand, Mir Jafar, etc. come in this category whose infidelity brought great distress to our country. Such elements should be identified and strictly dealt with.


The land, on which one is born and brought up and lives, is naturally dear to him than any other land. This love for his birthplace grows into patriotism.
