भ्रष्टाचार
हो गया है भ्रष्टाचार पर्वत जैसा
अब तो पिघलना चाहिए ।
कही पर भी निकले मगर
ईमानदारी की चिंगारी निकलनी चाहिए ।
पत्तों की तरह हिलती है, डोलती है
सच्चाई की दीवारे ।
कही पर भी हिले, डोले बुनियाद मगर
भ्रष्टाचार का स्तम्भ गिरना चाहिए ।
गाँव - गाँव शहर - शहर
बने भ्रष्टाचार मुक्त प्रशासन ।
आगे बढ़कर किसी एक को,
थोड़ी सी आवाज़ तो उठानी चाहिए ।
बूँद - बूँद कर घड़ा भरता है
पर बूँद तो टपकनी चाहिए ।
हरी भरी इस पावन धरती के क्षितिज पर,
अब तो नया दिनेश निकलना चाहिए ।
क्या चाहती है प्रजा
सुशासन, सुप्रशासन, सुविधा
शांति - प्रेम, सौहार्द, भाईचारा
और कुछ नया नहीं मांगा
हमारा जो था वो ही तो हमें चाहिए ।
Khushi Rao/X/GH

Save for Mankind
Trees, a gift of god very special
For the life very essential
Water, save each drop
Will yield life to new trees and crops
Trees, water and wind
Save for mankind.

ENVIRONMENT
Environment is the surrounding in which we live. It is very useful for us, because it helps us to be with nature. If we want to be with nature, first we have to protect the environment. Here are some points:

1] We should not use plastic bags.
2] We should not waste water.
3] We should plant more and more trees and we should not cut trees.
4] We should not throw garbage anywhere.

If we throw garbage anywhere it will cause pollution. Pollution makes holes in ozone layer which can destroy our environment. So to conserve our environment, 5th June was selected as World Environment Day.  We should protect the Earth because our Earth is our home . We should water the plants every day.  My advice is to plant a tree everyday if you can’t water it everyday.

Interview with Karanveer Singh
Ed: What is your aim?
K.A: I want to be a Scientist. I want to study Optics (illusion)

Ed: At present what are you doing?
K.A: I am studying in Trivandrum.

Ed: How did you reach there?
K.A: I first completed my 12th from Career Point and in the 2nd attempt I cleared my IIT Exam.

Ed:  When you were not selected for IIT at first attempt what were your feelings at that time?
K.A: At first I was a little depressed, but then I tried and worked hard and got selected.

Ed: Which subjects do you study there?
K.A: There is no choice of subjects. I have to study all four subjects i.e. Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Math.

Ed: Do you see any change in the Education System of the South?
K.A: Yes, their education system is better than ours. Their standard of studies is very good .In Rajasthan you can take Biology or Math, but in Kerala you have to take both, you can’t say that I don’t want to opt this subject. They have reached ahead of us in each and every aspect of Education.

Ed: Is your institution Co-Ed.?
K.A:  Yes, we all study together. If my lab mate is a girl and if I don’t talk with her then my grades are deducted. We can’t discriminate and we have to talk to girls whether we wish or not. The people there are frank and helpful.

Ed: What message would you like to give the students of Science Batch?
K.A: According to me Science is the best subject, it has the maximum scope .Most of us see it as complicated subject, but in reality it is not. If we find any topic difficult we should simplify the topics, to understand it more easily. We should not feel scared of any subject. We should not be frustrated, work hard, simplify things don’t make anything complicated. Work hard and you will achieve success.

SKILL
बोल क्या चाहता है तू।
क्या है तेरी चाह।
जहाँ होती है चाह
वहाँ मिल जाती है राह।
पाना चाहता है जो भी
तू इस जीवन में,
आ मेरे पास
सब कुछ मिल जायेगे
बस याद रख मेरी बात
सारी दुनिया होगी तेरे साथ।
समय है बड़ा बलवान
इसकी शक्ति पहचान,
समय पर कर्म कर,
कर्म पर विश्वास कर,
कर्म समय का जोड़ा निराला
पहचाने योगी और विरला।
जोड़े धन-यश अपार।
तेरे जीवन तेरी मुट्ठी में
कर्म का पहिया, समय की धूरी
दोनों का होगा  साथ

Environment
Environment is the word which we use in our daily life. It means the condition around us, in which the people, animal plants etc. live. Nowadays, it is polluted by us. Each person is the reason for the environmental pollution. We only can save our environment by giving our contribution in this. We are only alive because of the environment.
If there is no environment, there would be no plants, no animals, no people and no atmosphere. Atmosphere is the part of our environment, but we are polluting it by burning plastics and other harmful substances. Due to which, there is a beginning of a hole in the Ozone layer and the atmospheric temperature is increasing. We can save the environment by throwing garbage in the dustbin, not turn the plastic bags, recycle the newspaper, old notebooks, books and the other thing which are of no use.
And make a habit of recycle, reuse, reduce each and every thing which is useless. Craft is the best example of reuse, newspaper we can recycle and we can reduce the use of plastic bags. We all have to plant more and more trees and also have the habit of doing this, because it give us benefit.
At last, I want to tell that please plant a tree in year to protect environment.
Surayaveer Singh/IX/DH

Environment and Us
The word environment refers to our surrounding .Whatever is present in our surrounding that is called environment. Environment includes plants, trees, animals, birds, rivers, mountain etc. Environment is a gift of nature in which we live. Our environment was created very beautifully and we must not damage our environment. Now days, because of water pollution, pure water is very less in the environment.
We cut trees for our need but if cut more and more trees then the eco-system will become unbalanced and due to this more carbon dioxide will be formed and it will result in Global warming and Green House Effect. Due to pollution created by our vehicles, many diseases occur and create problems in our environment. We have many natural resources which we use and over-utilized them.
A phrase is there that a man’s need can be satisfied but a man’s greed never satisfies. We can save our environment by using our resources judiciously and by planting more trees. Then we can live healthy and pollution free life. As a citizen of India we must not pollute our environment.
Our prime minister Mr.Narendra Modi also started a movement on 2nd October 2014 called the ‘clean India (Swachya Bhaarat Abhiyan). We must also become the part of this and help to reduce garbage.

मैं बरसाती हवा हूँ
मैं बरसाती हवा हूँ। मैं दवा हूँ। सूखे की। हरियाली हूँ
बगीचे, खेत खलिहानों की।
मुस्कान हूँ
मुरझाए किसानो के चेहरों की।
मैं बरसाती हवा हूँ।
बहती हूँ मै
होकर मस्त, गाते हुए तराने।
शहर, गाँव, खेत और विराने।
ना कोई डगर न डर
ना किनारा, ठौर न हार
मैं ख़ुशी भी लापरवाह हूँ।
मैं बरसाती हवा हूँ।
मेरी आहट सुनकर
डरता है कोई
हँसता है कोई
जल्दी-जल्दी घर जाए कोई
जल्दी-जल्दी सामान समेटे कोई
बच्चे वो कर रहे नहाने की तैयारी
मैं कितनी न्यारी  हूँ
मैं बरसाती हवा हूँ।
