    ?IMPORTANCE OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT?           BY KARUNA/KARAN                         Recently I heard that traffic police has started a new drive against the pollution causing vehicles. Traffic police is stationed at the important intersections. Each and every vehicle is, checked tor ?No Pollution certificates and they are fined Rs. 500 for the lapse. But what is the use of all this and how long could it go because people find too many excuses for their negligence. Next, from every house a minimum of two to three vehicles are used by the people for going to their working places. Sometimes they are stuck in their vehicles for long hours due to heavy traffic jams.                         So. It would be far better if the government provides public Transport facilities. It would create a lot of convenience for the public and daily commuters. It has many social, economic and environmental benefits. Social benefits of using public transport are multifold. It helps in developing a sense of community among people. They feel a Social connection with those who are traveling with them. It encourages people to have a healthy lifestyle if they walk to their station, stand or slop. Moreover, it is less stressful as it saves a lot of time. Then economic benefits include less expenditure of money on buying cars or spending money on their maintenance. Traveling In public transport is much cheaper than private transport. It also reduces pollution and road congestion thus, helping in environmental conservation.

    GENDER DISCRIMINATION IN SOCIETY             By Karuna/Karan                         In India, attitude towards men and women has been discriminating since generations. Although, the Constitution of India has provided equal rights to men and women, gender disparity prevails. Nature has also divided human beings into two equal halves and both are given equal responsibilities according to their capacity, thus, stating the rights to both of them. But we humans have shown discrimination which has now become a practice in society. The powerful become aggressors and the others faces the aggression. Usually women are considered to be weaker as compared to men and are supposed to be uncap able of doing everything just because of their fragile outlook. Gender discrimination prevails in many homes, it is generally seen in families where there are sisters and brothers and where brothers are favored over sisters. Female infanticide and female foeticide are still common in many regions of the country. Sexual harassments, eve teasing, bride burning, woman trafficking, dowry deaths and many more evils are being perpetrated. Economically females are less privileged as they do not have control on financial matters.                         In the rural areas and villages the situation is still worse. There has been no change in the social, economic and family status of the women. They are subjected to exploitation, domination and harassment by their male counterparts. But now it?s time that women should be empowered and encouraged so that the gap between and men and women may be reduced.
