Being healthy and fit in simple terms means taking good care of the body. We should remember that a healthy mind resides only in a healthy body. Good health of both mind and body helps one maintain the required energy level to achieve success in life. It is essential for students to be fit and healthy because only then they can concentrate and perform well in their studies. For this, it is necessary that they protect their bodies from the intake of harmful substances. Doing regular exercise, taking proper food and sleep are the defining factors for a healthy lifestyle. Being fit will keep them away from being lethargic, restless, and tired. Schools should introduce some extra classes for teenagers to understand the correct way of keeping themselves fit.

Gyms mostly offer protein shakes for balanced diets but do not tell their drawbacks. Drugs are also taken by so...

The Telecom industry has brought the world closer. Using mobile phones is as natural and common as eating food these days. In today`s world, everyone can be seen using a mobile phone whether he is from the upper strata of society or a poor man. Surely, it has made things easy and smooth. But excess of everything takes a price. One needs to be careful about when a mobile phone should not be used. It is very risky and dangerous to use phones at petrol pumps as using them could ignite the flammable vapors present in the air and could cause disasters.

India is a land of villages and most of its population is illiterate. In many villages there are no schools or teaching facilities. Thus, villagers don't get an opportunity to learn. Poverty and ignorance have deprived them of becoming literate.     They don't even know how to write their name or recognize the alphabet. The villagers are bound by the superstitions and it is necessary to remove these beliefs from their minds. Therefore, it becomes the duty of the youth to render their services to them by teaching them. They can give their valuable advice and guidance to educate them. The government has also started a campaign 'Each one, Teach one' to facilitate the learning program for the illiterates. So anyone who wants to participate in this campaign can get their names enrolled.   I think it is a very good initiative from the govern...
