Answer:
(a) The female teachers are in minority. It is important to respect the views of the female teachers because they are equally qualified males and equally contributing to run the school.
(b) The Buddhists are in minority. The Buddhists are peace-loving people. Like other religious groups they have also the right to preserve and develop their own culture. Their views should be respected by non-Buddhists too.
(c) The non-vegetarians are in minority. Unity in diversity is a part and parcel of the Indians, keeping this in mind, the non-vegetarians should be given equal weight because everyone has the right to food and diet according to his or her liking and taste.
(d) 20% students are poorer and therefore are in minority. The students belonging to well off families should behave well and honor the feeling of their poorer classmates.
