India, my homeland

India, my motherland |
India is our
motherland. As our motherland like our mother, India is to us superior to
heaven. India, our homeland is so big that it is often described as a
sub-continent. India is bound by Myanmar and Bangladesh to the east, Pakistan
and the Arabian Sea to the west. The snowy mountain range of the Himalayas
stand like a giant to the north and the Bay of Bengal and the blue Indian Ocean
lying to the south make scared ablution.
India is a
land of rivers. The Ganga, the Brahmaputra, the Yamuna, the Indus, the
Godavari, the Cauvery, the Narmada, the Tapti, the Tungabhadra, the Mahanadi
are the major rivers, but the Ganga is the most sacred of all.
At present
there are 29 states and 7 union territories in India. New Delhi is the capital
city of India. The seat of Union Government is New Delhi, each state and union
territory has its own capital city.
As India is
a federal state, we have two sets of government- Union Government and State
Government elected every five years by the electors. India follows social, democratic,
secular, administration. Indian cultures are a composite culture built by many
races and many religious groups. Our
cultural heritage is very rich.
India was
under British rule for almost two hundred years. She owns her freedom on 15
August, 1947. The British Government made India his colony. Most of resources
were exploited by the British ruler; naturally our developments have made
progress in the spheres of agriculture, industry, education, science,
technology and social security. But in unfortunately side by side of progress,
problems are many illiteracy, poverty, terrorism, superstition, child marriage,
dowry system, communal disturbance, regionalism are many great evils. As good
citizens of the country it is our bounden duty to fight them out.
