    Answer:

    IN THE LAP OF NATURE             By: Latha/Lalith Class XII             One can find huge diversity in nature while living m India. This, I experienced personally when we shifted to Ernakulam in Kerala from Kota in Rajasthan. It seemed as it we have shifted not places but nature. From the brown, mountains to the green canopies, the change was completely welcomed by all the family members. For the first time in my whole life, I saw such greenery. The words used tor Kerala as 'God's Own Country', appeared to be true which I had only heard or read till now. Living in the lap of nature, is a completely new experience. The greenery is extremely enchanting and to add to its beauty, is the location of my house amidst the beautiful flowering plants and fruit yielding trees. The fragrance of the blooming flowers fill the house and the aroma enters the soul. The view of fruit laden trees is equally fascinating. There is no sign of pollution here. Evergreen beaches, fishing nets spread all over the sea, richness of coconut and jackfruit, all make it a desired place to live in. The place has not lacked even in the preservation of its culture. The boat race in the backwaters is done during the festival of Onam. It is famous for its spices and Ayurvedic Kerala Massage?. In all, I must say that I enjoy the bracing environment, relaxed life, temples, backwaters and shaded woods of Kerala.Q

    POVERTY IS THE CAUSE OF ALL EVILS             By: Xyz                         India is a country where most of the population lives in villages and mostly below poverty line. Poverty prevails not only in villages but in big cities also. The metros are full of slums, where majority of people are living in inhuman conditions. Their basic needs for food, shelter and clothing are not fulfilled. Millions and millions of people are the victims of malnutrition, hunger, poor health and illiteracy. Their condition is not better than stray dogs. The prices are rising at a very high rate and in the same way their condition is also deteriorating. The rich are becoming richer, and the poor are becoming poorer. Circumstances and negligence force them to adopt evil means and criminal activities like robbery, murder, kidnapping, looting and so on. Children are made to beg and women are compelled to become prostitutes. If it is not acceptable to anyone, then they commit mass suicide.                         The society, reformatory organizations, government, and non-profit organisations should take a step forward to improvise the condition of these people. There should be a check on the fund allocated, for poverty removal and whether it is properly utilised or not.
