Question

Unseen Passage ⇒


Patriotism is an old concept, as old perhaps as the earliest of humans civilizations. But all through the

history of mankind, it has been narrowly understood. Today people have begun to realise that

patriotism is an essential part of human instinct.

Patriotism has its negative sides particularly when it exceeds its proper bounds. People who think their

own country to be the best and are blind to its weaknesses are not patriots at all.

towards it. Our love for the country should be conditioned by respect for the whole community.

the modern world, we harm our own.
