    'Festivals of India'             By Karuna/Karan                         India is a land of colors. It is a country populated by the people of many castes, religions, faiths, communities, languages and creeds. Therefore, many festivals, celebrations, social and cultural gatherings, fairs take place every year. India is said to be a country which is full of pleasures, joys and festivities. Throughout the year we celebrate many festivals. They represent the grandeur of the country. These are the occasions when families gather at one place and celebrate happy moments. Festivals are celebrated throughout the year and people await these festivals with great enthusiasm. These have an important place in the hearts of Indians as they believe that fasting on these occasions purify their soul and help them lead a problem free life. Some festival are celebrate all over India and people celebrate them irrespective of their status and social position. These include Diwali, Holi and Dusshera. Each festival has its religious value and contains some mythology behind it. For example, Dusshera is celebrated on account of victory of good over evil and when God Ram killed Ravana. Similarly, Janmashtami has also a social and religious significance as Lord Krishna was born to kill all the demons from the earth. Thus, each and every festival has its own value which teaches people to come closer and forget all their differences.

    'How to provide proper healthcare to the common man'             By Karuna/Karan                         A large section of our population is suffering from the physical as well as mental problems like illness, fever, injury, epilepsy, learning disability, etc. Women have problems related to pregnancy and childbirth, children require immunization against common diseases. Most of these health woes have been the result of our changing life style, rising pollution lack of nutrition value in food. Hence, they require access to health care facilities and treatment. Unfortunately, health services are often planned without consulting the community members. To meet the necessities of the people for accessible, affordable services, community members should be consulted and involved in their planning. Health centers should be more vigilant. Most people prefer home remedial measures and go to the hospital or refer to a doctor only when the situation is beyond their control. But it's not necessary that they go to a well-qualified doctor, they may approach local pharmacist or traditional healers. Therefore, it is necessary that the health sector must intervene and create awareness among the people. Health care facilities should be within the reach of the common man. Government's investment in public health care is very low. As a result, many hospitals run by the government do not provide sufficient medical facilities. Therefore, improvements are required in this sector and it is a positive thing that the government is now planning to allocate more funds for the renovation of hospitals.
