Answers
Answer:
After Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call for an Atmanirbhar Bharat, the Central Board of Secondary Education wants students to delve into the concept and suggest a road map.
The national board has written to all its 24,000 affiliated schools to encourage students of Classes IX, X, XI and XII to take part in an online essay competition on any one of the 10 sub-themes related to self-reliance.
One of the sub-themes is —While I exercise my rights, I must not forget to undermine my duties to usher in an Atmanirbhar Bharat.
The other sub-themes include Digital India for Atmanirbhar Bharat: Opportunities on Covid-19 and Beyond and India at 75: A Nation marching towards Atmanirbhar Bharat.
A school principal said the choice of sub-themes echoed what “the government wants to propagate” among schoolchildren. “The schools should have been allowed to decide sub-themes related to the main theme,” she added.
An official of the central education ministry said the government had decided the sub-themes for the competition. The students have been asked to upload the essays on www.MyGov.in by August 14
Answer:
Explanation:“It is not possible for civilization to ow backwards, while there is youth in the world”. Helen Keller Today, a virus has spread turmoil in the world. Category - Youth It has made us realize how shallow the materialistic pleasures are in life and preeminent, the life itself. Before this, people in the world believed that the cardinal was the jobs they were doing, the places visited, the cars owned or the clothes worn. Most of all, the younger generations fall in this trap of creating a virtual reality for themselves while there is a war going on in the world, there is a sudden spur of radical nationalism in the country, or the forests are on re. All that matters to most of the youth is the social life they are maintaining. Even after all of this, one cannot deny that young people are the drivers of change. They are the ones who shape the future. Time and again, it has been proven that whenever the world was in shackles, youth used to come forward, took charge and changed the course of history. Be it Malala Yousafzai, who took a bullet through her head to ght for educating women in Pakistan, and become an inspiration for millions of women around the globe who were denied their rights. Mark Zuckerberg, who established that it is not necessary to be 50 to build something as huge as Facebook or, be it someone as young as Greta Thunberg who protested in front of the Swedish Parliament building, giving rise to worldwide concentration on environmental issues like Global Warming. Who would have thought that a mutant virus could crash the world economies and result in all people being locked up inside their homes? Yet, here we are, in this situation. It is time for young people to come forward and take charge. It is necessary to understand here that the enemy is invisible, it cannot be fought and it cannot be tamed. So how do we ght with an enemy like that? The answer is simple: by being prepared, by being sensitive, by becoming aware. The youth needs to focus on things that they were already doing before the pandemic and how they can improve in their jobs to help the world regain what it has lost. Once normalcy is established, the world is going to face another crisis, which is going to be as challenging as this one if not more. A crisis wherein we face a lack of resources like decreasing groundwater levels, as well as a fall in economy like stock markets crashing, small businesses being vulnerable and high rise in unemployment rates. According to a study by the ILO, almost 25 million jobs could be lost due to COVID-19. As the youth is the biggest part of our workforce, everyone doing their part with utmost honesty and with a view of catering to others is going to be of utmost help in a situation like this. Everyday life has been disturbed because of COVID-19 and the whole world is at a halt. When we look at the present situation, every person is conned to their own homes. The billions of dollars that we have invested in real estate are of no use at this time because we spent money on building fancy facades, ornate landscapes, tall structures, and posh amenities, but all we are doing now is staying indoors, and our houses are not ecient enough. Architects and builders have left us with inexible spaces; our houses are neither well ventilated nor well lit with natural lighting. We are conned within compact and non-workable spaces. Had the designers paid more attention to these things, we would have had some comfort, workability and exposure to the outer world while staying inside. This is just one example of how we have failed as professionals in doing our jobs. We need designers, professionals, business people and workers who bring a creative approach in doing traditional work and this responsibility lies on the shoulders of the youth. We cannot dismiss the consequences of this pandemic. Hence, if each young person focuses on working with more empathy and dedication in their work, the world will soon be able to recover from the inevitable losses that it is going to bear.
