Whereas, a poor person is expressed in the form of certain acts ranging from persuasion to physical force to exploitation and is always backed by sanctions which may be of mild or harsh nature depending on the gravity of situation. One distinctive characteristic of power allocation is that it is not possible to enjoy it by all the members of the society, rather a few members of the society are enjoying it. It is because of the simple reason that power involves a reciprocal relationship between two groups of individuals i.e. those who enjoy it and on the other hand to whom it is exercised.

India has always remained land where every one existed with one another. India has had the unique capacity of accepting the people of every religion in its folds. That's why India is emerging leaves and bounds. In 1957, the British annexed Bengal. Then they started British rule which lasted for 200 years.

They perhaps believe that it is an achievement on their part if they break rules and make their own set of rules. Respect for teachers is not their cup of tea. Only thing now students are interested in is to catch up with latest fashion and styles. Cinema, TV and media directly influence students' life. Whatever they see in movies in all they think is reality. But reality actually is different which they are unable to analyze.

There is a very popular saying that 'Practice makes a man perfect.' The saying is true in every aspect. Until a person practices, he /she cannot attain perfection. For example, when we try to ride a bicycle for the first time, we do not even know how to balance ourselves properly but with the time and loads of practicing, we learn to drive a bicycle. Similarly we can use another example to prove our statement is, when we put in a lot of effort while studying, we can achieve our desired goals.

Man, an animal with human instincts, is at the epicentre of the civilized human societies that assert their claim to refinement through the acts of the very being who create it. Talking of societies, the evolution of a civilized body of human beings started with man turning from nomadic traveler to man as a member of a community, a village or a country and most importantly, a member of human race.
