of India and its policies, political parties
embrace the concept of equality, but still
the problem of inequality is not removed

 THE FUTURE OF

IN MY EYES
• We should all love India and serve our motherland
in the respective sphere
• We should feel proud to be identified as an Indian
rather than on the basis of religion, caste and creed
• We should all protect and give respect to each
others religion, culture and heritage
• National festivals should be celebrated on the
higher basis and the religious festivals should be
low profiled
• Equality and unity are the two clapping hands
whose sound produces peace, pride, progress and
achievement in every field
