    Answer:

    Good morning everyone!             Respected Principal, teachers and my dear friends I, XYZ the Head girl of the school, am going to deliver a speech on Sakshi Malik, in India where all the sisters were celebrating the day with their brothers. On the day of Raksha Bandhan, far away in Rio de Janeiro, a 23-year old wrestler, Sakshi Malik, made the nation proud by winning a bronze medal. Mailk became the first female Indian wrestler who has bagged a medal in the Olympics.             Sakshi Malik, the daughter of a bus conductor, comes from a small district in Haryana. She started training at the age of l2. Malik and her coach, Ishwar Dahiya, faced many problems during the initial stages of the former?s career as the mentality of the conservative society thought that wrestling was not meant for girls; it was thought to be a male sport. There are still so many people who are living with such male dominant thinking.             Not only has she proved to be one of the best wrestlers in the world, but also fought off long odds, bureaucratic obstacles, lack of facilities, and the conservative Indian society. Sakshi taught the nation that women in the country need support not protection. We are proud to be the citizens of the nation where women like Sakshi Malik live. Wish her more success in life.
    Or
    A very good morning to the jury members, all my dear friends and my fellow participants. Today, I am going to speak for the topic ?our large population is not a cause of poverty but an asset, a resource.             India has the highest population in the world with 125 crore people and also is the biggest provider of skilled manpower in the world. As even more children are going to school now and receiving good education, India currently provides the maximum number of engineers to the world. It is also one of the largest markets for automobiles, high value foods, etc.             Large population means more intelligence that can be put to good effect and skilled population draws more projects from foreign companies as well.             I, therefore, agree with the view that our large population is not a cause of poverty but an asset as every hand can become an earning hand for the economy and not a cause of poverty.
