Dear Diary ( optional)

It seems that our Prime Minister has felt the real pulse of the nation. His ‘Swachha
Bharat Abhiyan’ or ‘Clean India Campaign’ has inspired and motivated millions of
students, young men and women of India. I was highly impressed and motivated and
wanted to be a part of the campaign. I started talking to my friends and it didn’t take
long to convince them. So we had a volunteer army of fifty dedicated young boys
and girls. First of all, we started removing garbage and dirt from those comers in the
area which had not been touched for months. We bought a few bins for garbage
from the money we collected from the residents. In the beginning, the residents were
not amused but gradually their indifference disappeared. We launched a public
awakening campaign. We prepared posters and distributed pamphlets urging the
residents to make ‘Clean India Campaign’ a real success. Gradually our labour
started showing positive results. There was an appreciable change in the mindset of
the residents. Even housewives came out openly in our support. I felt proud of
myself and the dedicated band of volunteers who helped me in this campaign. Such
things arouse patriotic feelings and sense of unity among the people.

Dear Diary,
Kamal Mandi is the nerve-centre of the city. But it is a highly crowded and congested
place. It is a commercial place with narrow lanes. There are many godowns and
warehouses which store some highly inflammable articles. When I was standing in a
shop, I could see a huge cloud of smoke rising from the other end of the market.
Soon there was a lot of commotion and people ran towards the site with buckets of
water and sand in their hands. I could see flames rising higher in the sky. The wind
aggravated the situation. The firebrigade was on the scene within a few minutes.
And at once the dedicated firemen were on their toes to do their job. A woman was
trapped in the flames on the first floor of a building. Two brave firemen mounted on
a ladder and jumped into the flames. We were amazed at their bravery. Soon they
came out with the woman and received loud cheers from the crowds below. The loss
of property was in crores but a precious life was saved. The exceptional bravery and
heroism of the firemen has made an indelible impression on my mind for ever.

Dear Diary,
Life is full of surprises. I couldn’t sleep the previous night. The next morning the
results of the Board were to be announced. Then suddenly at 9 am, we heard a
telephone ring. I ran to receive it. My Principal was on the line. “Congratulations my
boy! You have topped the list of successful candidates in the Ambala Zone. We are
proud of you!” He also congratulated my parents.Then started the non-stop
congratulatory messages from my teachers, class fellows, friends and relatives. My
parents were busy in distributing ‘laddoos’. I felt like a celebrity. And a celebrity I
was. Two correspondents of leading news channels came to interview me. I only felt
that nothing succeeds like success and thanked my stars.
